in this death
the search for clues
began. never had
they considered their
own closets, or under
their hats. hiding
valuables in shoes
was common but
so no one could fathom
why she walked so far
for so long, then sat
staring at the table
as if to bring him
back to life; or why
her eyes gazed fixed
on the sky, unblinking,
denial is the first step to
abdicating responsibility.

Those OR days when nothing goes right. Had one recently. Knew my first case was going to be a bitch, because I'd scoped her in the past. As an aside, I really hate endometriosis. So you set yourself up for success - extensive counseling about possibly needing to convert from a scope to an open procedure. Book extra OR time. Have the most experienced partner as an assist instead of using a nurse first assist. Have in the room anything you may possibly need (not opened, but in the room). And the case went well, although it took the extra time allotted. Next case had difficulty. Final case of the day I was hoping would be a slam-dunk scope. Put in the camera.
"No. Not today. I don't want to deal with that."
"I think I'm going to start swearing now."
Yeah, not how we want to start the case - with big ugly adhesions everywhere.

For millions of people, the Volkswagen Beetle was their first automobile. Today, the Beetle is an equally great starter hobby car, with examples like this 1971 model still available for a very affordable price. It gives you a great old car feel, unparalleled parts and knowledge support, and an undeniable appeal that puts a smile on everyone's face.
Simple is good when you're a Beetle fan, and while this lovely Bug shows just the right amount of patina, it also carries a handsome color combination that's just a bit out of the ordinary. Well, light blue isn't all that unusual, but the matching blue cloth interior is seldom-seen. But before we go there, let's take a closer look at the bodywork, which remains quite good. Fit and finish on the lowly Beetle were actually above average, and while rumors of them floating because they sealed up so well were probably slightly exaggerated, there's no denying that this one fits together very well. The early Beetle styling cues such as the small taillights, chrome-rimmed headlights, and simple chrome bumpers are all present and accounted for, and still in great shape. You can tell it's an original Beetle and not a Super Beetle by the flat windshield, and the big chrome bumpers dress it up nicely. If you like the traditional Beetle look, you're going to love this car.
As I mentioned, the interior makes this Bug something special, with blue cloth in place of the usual black. The interior is likely original, so it's showing some wear, but nothing critical beyond a small split on the bottom of the driver's seat back and some wear on the lower cushion, all of which I think I'd leave alone. Instrumentation is simple, with a round speedometer with an integrated gas gauge tucked above the odometer. Simple gray carpets with rubber floor mats make it durable, the headliner fits quite well, giving the car a well-tailored look. The trunk area is also correctly finished with proper cardboard liners, a full-sized spare tire that might even be original, and absolutely zero signs of accident damage. If you're looking for a clean Bug, this is it.
Mechanically, the Bug is familiar to anyone who has even a passing interest in cars. The air-cooled flat-four starts with the characteristic exhaust note, and under the deck lid shows a lot of originality and recent maintenance. All the heating tubes are in place, which you don't often find on older Beetles, and it looks quite original. Beetles are famous for their bulletproof reliability, and this one is no exception, as it starts every time and drives extremely well. Performance is modest, even with the 4-speed manual transmission, but that's the whole point of an old car: to be transported to a different era. This one still carries its original floor pan, which is solid, and all the original suspension and brake components have been serviced properly over the years. Recently restored steel wheels with bright hubcaps carry skinny blackwall radials with a lot of life left in them.
A very clean early Beetle with lots of personality and a great color combination. Get into the hobby today without a big investment. Call now!

About the Winery
An unspoilt green environment of 160 hectares. An exceptional natural setting just a few steps from Carcassonne.
Domaine Calmel & Joseph, formerly a typical Languedoc farmstead, offers four gites to accommodate you in the heart of the countryside. On the estate, which produces wines and olives, your days will be rhythmed by the gentle cadence of horse tilling and work in the vines. Sheltered in a valley of the Val de Dagne, at the foot of the Hautes Corbières which offer incredible views over the Black Mountains or the Alaric Massif, it is surrounded by grandiose landscapes just a few minutes from the World Heritage sites of the City of Carcassonne and the Canal du Midi. Here, the flora and fauna thrive in abundance in an environment that we take care to respect and preserve.
The vines are at the heart of our actions, as winemaking is our core activity. Each grape variety is matched to its terroir and the geographical situation of the estate, which is why you will find typically Mediterranean varieties such as Grenache Noir or Grenache Gris, Syrah and Roussanne, but also Pinot Noir which offers magnificent expression in this type of cool climate. Vineyard management is governed by a constant concern for the respect of the plant and yield control. The soil is hoed on the surface, with no deep ploughing, and between the rows are sown with cover crops such as faba beans, oats or other pulses depending on our soil analyses. We work to create life in the soils and thus reinforce the plants own immune systems. Harvesting starts only when perfect balance is achieved.
Calmel Joseph Villa Blanche Chardonnay
Dry White wine: 100% Chardonnay; Very bright and clear, pale green-yellow hue. Very expressive aromas, reminiscent of stone fruit such as apricots or peaches, and white flowers, along wth a hint of bitter almonds. 30% of the wine is aged for 3 months in oak barrels. "2016 Gold Medal Chardonnay of the World"
Calmel Joseph Vieux Carignan
Dry Red wine: 100% Carignan; Ruby red hue with beautiful highlights. Powerful on the nose, with aromas of black fruit.

Calmel Joseph Cotes du Rousillon Village Rouge
Dry Red wine: Syrah 40% ,Grenache 30%, Carignan 30% (old vines). Purple-red robe. On the nose, aromas of black fruit and spice, bay, pepper and thyme.

A major grant award will help Thurston County provide health care services to vulnerable families in Thurston, Lewis, and Mason counties.
Nurse-Family Partnership (NFP) National Service Office Incentive Fund awarded $796,892 to the Thurston County Public Health and Social Services NFP to increase care for new mothers and families living in vulnerable situations. The funds were awarded in November 2018, but were announced by the NFP National Service Office in late February.
Over the next three years these funds will be distributed to the Thurston County Public Health and Social Services NFP program, which serves Thurston, Lewis, and Mason counties. Thanks to the additional funding, the program will now be able to increase both the quality and quantity of its care, opening up 85 spots for new families in the tri-county area to be served.
Nurse-Family Partnership aims to make the transition into parenthood as smooth and nurturing as possible, for both parents and infants. NFP partners registered nurses with vulnerable families to provide in-home resources, support, and information until the babies are 2 years old.
Not only does the program significantly improve breastfeeding and immunization rates, with 97 percent of participating mothers breastfeeding their children, data from the program shows it reduces infant mortality by 48 percent, smoking during pregnancy by 25 percent, child maltreatment by 33 percent, and childhood behavioral and intellectual problems by 67 percent. By age 2, 97 percent of children enrolled in the program are reportedly fully immunized, and 85 percent have visited a physician's office.
The funding will improve the care for these new mothers and allow for increased staffing at the Thurston NFP branch.

Winger discusses his least favourite things
WELCOME to the second edition of Red Card.
If you missed it last week, this is our very own Room 101 where early baths are the norm, where all things bad are given their marching orders, where there are no second chances and... we think you get the drift.
This week our guest is Callum McManaman.
Rule in football?
The offside rule, everyone would be able to score more goals then.
Part of the game?
Warm-ups. I hate warm-ups.
Away day experience?
When I played for Wigan we went to QPR in the play-off semi-final in 2013/14. We ended up losing 2-1 which meant we didn't get through to the final. It was just a bad night.
Team-mate's fashion sense?
James McClean, easy.
Team-mate's taste in music?
James McClean again. He listens to some terrible stuff.
I'm not keen on Rugby. I used to play it in P.E at school but I never really enjoyed it.
TV show?
Towie. I can't stand it.
Type of music?
There isn't really one to be honest. I listen to everything.
Lesson at school?
There was a few. I'll go for history. I didn't really have much interest in it.
Snakes, they are scary.
Cliché/common phrase?
I hate the phrase "One life, live it".
Daily routine?
Prehab before training, I don't really like that.
Holiday annoyances?

Author: Ms. Namita Jain, Head of Department – Law, JECRC University
The issue of political funding in India has been a major source of corruption. After the Supreme Court's judgment of 2002, there was a drastic change in the outlook and practice of receiving funds by political parties, however, there is a long way to go for India to be able to reach transparency in the system of funding political parties.
This research aims to cover the current scenario of political funding in India and the position after the introduction of electoral bonds. Discussing the current case by ADR in the Supreme Court, the researcher has analyzed the need for change and the negative impact of the introduction of electoral bonds and anonymity of donors in the funding of political parties.
The researcher has hence discussed the issues and challenges under the current practice and suggested methods and amendments ensuring transparency in the system and anti-corruption practices used by the parties and donors.
Keywords: Political parties, political funding, Association for Democratic Response, People's Union for Civil Liberties, anonymous donors, elections, election campaigns
Electioneering is a costly issue in each democratic nation which is an increasingly indispensable job in India. Cash strategic maneuvers in our electoral system prompt all round debasement and contribute most to the age of black money leading to a corrupted economy. In an election campaign, a large amount of money is spent by the candidate standing in elections. Lately, the election expenditure has expanded past any limits because of the idea of each political group to spend more than their opponents in the brawl. Such an exorbitant amount was not spent for election campaigns in 1952 as they have moved toward becoming today. Political pioneers and laborers thought of it as dishonest to work with a longing for any reward. Be that as it may, the situation currently has changed. Indian political elections are ending up progressively costlier and the hole between the costs brought about and lawfully allowed is expanding throughout the years. The spectators are viewing the framework that requires unimaginably tremendous expenditure accumulated through the questionable methods by political parties and their applicants.
The appropriation of arranging the economy with a lot of control and guidelines in India gave huge chances to corruption in politics and brought about an exploitative nexus between the appointive electoral politics and the business part of the nation. This is by all accounts happening even today with increasingly unfortunate results of a flood of black money with the political parties regardless of the changing economy actuated to the political arrangement of the nation.
The government has set out on another activity to stop corruption in the political funding which is the worst thing about the Indian constituent framework. Almost 70% to 80% of the assets to the political group is never detailed and they are gathered from obscure sources. The legislature has chosen to get a more prominent and transparent system in the funding of political parties. These incorporate capping funding by an anonymous benefactor/donor to Rs. 2000 from the prior limit of Rs. 20,000 and proposing electoral bonds. This interest for limiting the cash donations by the ananonymous donor was likewise made by the Election Commission as of late. This has not totally addressed the issue but is the commencement of positive development.
The elections in India are considered to be the largest democratic exercise which is during out to be expensive every election. In order to advertise, transport and campaign, political parties have been spending a large amount of money. The corporate donations are turning out to be the largest source of income for these parties which infuses black money in the economy. In 2008, the Central Information Commission permitted the Right to Information to be applicable on the income tax returns of the political parties; although the political parties do not practice under the same.
Understanding of political funding:
In a democracy, political power in principle, expected to express well-known endorsement, as estimated by results in elections. Practically speaking, this framework is frequently mutilated by various elements, budgetary power being the most unmistakable of them. Political parties regularly shape schemes not according to the wants of their voters but rather interests of their funders.
To lessen the impact of cash on electoral politics, nations make progress toward frameworks where political financing is straightforward with the goal that voters can see who is bankrolling their legislators and vote in like manner. Shockingly, India's election financing framework has glaring loopholes, permitting people with money to stealthily impact political parties.
- Unknown sources of funds-
Under Indian law, the contributors of sums under Rs 20,000 permitted to be kept covered up legally, in the 2017 Union Budget plan, the leading government introduced an electoral bond[1] that even permitted expansive scale anonymous donations. Therefore, the greater part of all the pay of national parties in India is gotten from obscure and unknown sources.
As per a report of January 23 by the Association for Democratic Reforms, for six national parties, barring the Communist Party of India (Marxist), 53% of funding was from obscure sources in 2017-18. Non- anonymous donors contributed 36% of the income of the party. The rest 11% originated from other referred to sources, for example, closeout of advantages or participation charges.[2]
- Effect of Electoral Bonds-
While 51% of all questions reserves were donations beneath Rs 20,000 (which can be unknown according to the law), as much as 31% were made utilizing the new instrument of electoral bonds.[3]
An electoral bond is a promissory note like a certified receipt. It tends to be bought from State Bank of India branches in products of Rs 1,000, Rs 10,000, Rs 1 lakh, Rs 10 lakh, and Rs 1 crore. Uncommonly for an instrument that licenses such expansive sums, electoral bonds can be anonymous. People and organizations can make donations to a political party without having their identities uncovered to the Indian voter.
The electoral bonds permit huge scale donations which are anonymous to parties, supposedly, it is a critical step back in setting up a transparent arrangement of political funding. Former Chief Election Commissioner Navin Chawla has also called attention staring electoral bonds have really developed as a "greater method of camouflage" when it went to the utilization of black money in legislative issues.
Electoral bonds have been accessible since January 2018. Their effect was prompt, pushing up the offer of funds for national parties for 2017-'18. However, the Chief Election Commissioner A.K Joti stated that introduction of electoral bonds would not reduce the problems in cases of political funding and its transparency.
A case study discussing issues in Political Funding:
A Public Interest Litigation (PIL)[4] was filed by Association of Democratic Reforms (ADR) and Common Cause to challenge the amendments made in the Finance Act of 2016 and 2017 which led to funding into politics in an unrestricted and anonymous manner. The PIL's main objective was to prohibit the cash donations which are made to political parties by Indian as well as foreign corporations.
On reviewing the Union Budget for 2017-18, there were issues with regard to political funding by making new recommendations in order to reduce the donation of cash to political parties. The cash donation was restricted to Rs 2000 per individual and electoral bonds were also introduced.
The new recommendations touched off a great deal of interest and high expectations, yet were brimming with escape clauses and inconsistencies. To begin with, while the correction to radically slice the cash donations to one-tenth was an appreciated move, despite everything it left enough space for ideological groups to abuse the altered arrangement, even at the expense of multiplying the number of donors. Further, while many hailed electoral bond as a progressive measure to infuse democratic processes with white money as it went to attain a cheque and computerized installments guaranteeing the identity of donors, its most glaring disappointment was obscurity. In spite of the fact that the plan is still better since the identity of donors is confidential, it scarcely progresses the reason for transparency. Hence, this amendment leads to obscurity and anonymity and does not enable a transparent scheme of funding to political parties.
The claim of the petitioners' under the case was the funding to political parties in an uncontrolled manner, after the Finance Act 2017, being relied on the fact that almost 89% of the total donations were made by corporate funding, in the years of 2012 to 2016. It is broadly understood that private business charges an expansive bit of donating to parties and on events private business bankroll whole election campaigns in India. Given the way that states in India hold gigantic command over the economy and administrative approaches, they can't stand to disappoint the political bosses. This leads to extensive corruption and donation by corporate in India and foreign entities enable over the table deals as opposed to under the table dealing with respect to black money.
Although such issues are faced in different countries like the United States as well, such donations are made in a legal manner and every such transaction is transparent. In India, however, illicit or illegal methods are used to attain such actions. Hence, the concept of electoral bond with the provision of remaining anonymous is creating such corporate donations to be unrestrictive in nature, which is being claimed by the petitioners under this PIL.
The Finance Bill of 2016 also allows donations to be made to political parties under the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act, 2010, leading to the increase in private money donation and influence of entities from abroad.[5] This petition hereby gives an opportunity for the Supreme Court to look into the laws of election and the reforms concerned with them.
Major electoral reforms have been brought forth by way of judicial interventions, including disqualification of convicted MLAs[6], the introduction of the option of NOTA[7] (none of the above), etc.
In every one of these years, political parties have set up solid protection from constituent changes, despite naming councils and commissions now and again. There is a long history of deferral, subterfuge, weakening by progressive governments at the Center, and there is an astounding unanimity among political parties to slow down any conceivable dynamic changes to acquire more noteworthy transparency and responsibility in the donations. As of late, political parties contradicted the Central Information Commission's order to bring political parties including their donations under the ambit of the Right to Information Act.
On 10th April'19, the Election Commission has mentioned in the Supreme Court that it is not against the mode of donations for political funding but the anonymous donations made to political parties. The stand by the Central Government, however, is that the identity of the donor should not be disclosed.
This contradicts the 2017 stand of the Election Commission in the Supreme Court whereby they mentioned Electoral bonds as a 'retrograde step' in an affidavit filed by the Election Commission. The counsel for the Election Commission submitted only public donations through electoral bonds was objected.
Supreme Court Guidelines on Electoral Reforms
Supreme Court had raised the issue of Irresponsible guarantees made by the political parties in their election manifestos. The Court guided the Election Commission to call the political parties and talk about an exit plan. The rules that there should be mindful guarantees in the declaration were incorporated into the Model Code of Conduct.
In 2002, Supreme Court had said that the candidate while documenting his nomination papers needs to record a testimony giving the information of his monetary resources and furthermore with respect to the criminal records[8] which are pending against him. A large portion of the changes has gotten through the Supreme Court which is an indication of legal activism.
The Delhi High Court[9] decided that leading political parties including BJP and Congress were guilty as they were accepting foreign funding which violated the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act, 2010 and thereby directed the Election Commission of India and the Home Ministry to take an action within six months of the order. An appeal was filed in the Supreme Court, which was allowed but the Supreme Court refused to stay the order the High Court.
Hence, the judiciary has the power to decide on matters and thereby enable a system of funding of political parties which are transparent and against corruption.
Foreign Donations
The use of foreign funds in elections as is a disputable issue over the world. In France, their former president Nicolas Sarkozy is under investigation over claims that Libyan despot Muammar Gaddafi donated funds for his 2007 election campaign. The contention over Russia affecting Donald Trump's presidential campaign in the US is as yet not finished. This arrangement may open the conduits for outside effect on key approaches in politics, and possibly influence the nation's strategic advantages.
Luckily, Indian elections have so far stayed free of any known remote impact, yet there is no denying that cash, particularly unaccounted money spilling out of groups of people and people with business premiums, has regularly assumed a vile job in the election campaigns. Further, as per specialists and the resistance groups, the limit on corporate donations and inclusion of electoral bonds has additionally reinforced corporate impact in political leadership. In the years of 2012 and 2016, corporate donations shaped a stunning 89 percent of the absolute assets.
The 2017 Finance Act lifted the limit on corporate donations from 7.5 percent of the net benefit of an organization's previous three financial years and removed the commitment to report such donations in the organization's benefit account. Also, such donations don't require the endorsement of an organization's top managerial staff. This arrangement is a helpful escape clause for corrupt components to course dark cash through counterfeit organizations.
New petition filed by ADR in April 2018[10]:
Association for Democratic Response's request challenged the corrections and amendments made with review impact in the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act, 2010 through the Finance Act, 2016 and Finance Act, 2018, which was passed as a Money Bill. These changes were viewed as an endeavor to upset the judgment given by the Delhi High Court in March 2014 holding the two noteworthy political parties, Bhartiya Janta Party(hereby known as "BJP") and Indian National Congress(hereby known as "INC"), blameworthy of tolerating foreign donations. The Delhi High Court requested the Central Government and Election Commission of India to make a move against BJP and INC inside six months. These alterations to the Foreign Contribution Regulation law have opened ways to boundless political gifts in the form of donations from remote organizations and furthermore legitimizing money related contributions received from foreign sources. The appeal was required because of the uncompromising nature of the Central Government in conforming to the Delhi HC request of March 2014 and rather attempting to get BJP and INC free by correcting the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act, 2010 in that of 2016 and accordingly the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act, 1976 in March 2018.
Issues with regard to electoral bond
The electoral bond has an actual existence of 15 days amid which it may be given to an enlisted political party which has surveyed 1 percent of the vote in the state, or, national decision. The party needs to open an account in an assigned SBI branch. The party does not need to unveil who it has gotten the bond from in its record. Neither does the donor have a duty to state to which party it has given. Hence, it enables the donor not only to hide the information as to donation to be made to a particular political party but also not to disclose his own identity.
The arrangement of electoral bonds encourages corporate funding to the political parties and opens the path for legitimizing pay off and corruption. Organizations will have the motivator to give gigantic donations to the party to acquire their support. Officially, through the Finance Bill, a change was made to the Company Law. The limit on organizations offering funds to political parties of 7.5 percent of net benefits earned in the past three years has been expelled. Further, the alteration had discarded the prerequisite which accommodates revelation of the name of the political party to which the organization makes the commitment. So now, organizations can give boundless funds to a party without exposing their identities.
The Finance Minister had asserted, at the time the electoral bonds were presented, that this will acquire more transparency. This claim, however, has not been accurate. On the off chance that transparency is the point, the identity on the entity donating the funds and that of the beneficiary party ought to be freely known.
The leading government has figured out how to legitimize bribery, by donations made through bonds by anonymous donors. Prior to this, an organization which won an agreement would have needed to pay an amount unlawfully and unofficially as far as the government was concerned. The electoral bond plan makes every single such bribery legitimate.
The hazy security framework can be abused for illegal tax avoidance and black money tasks using such organizations as protection. Another aspect of the electoral bond is that it conspires to open the route for foreign organizations to support political parties in India without it getting to be public. In the Finance Bill of 2016, the administration had revised the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) to treat donations by Indian subsidiaries of such companies as a donation from Indian sources. With this change of the FCRA, foreign corporate financing to political parties was authorized.
The issue with regard to electoral bonds was first identified when a total of over 200 crores of bonds were issued, where 95% of these bonds were given to BJP which confirms the ruling party's involvement in the process of corporate funding by introducing electoral bonds.
This move of decreasing the donation limit to Rs 2000 will raise the paperwork for the political groups to guarantee that the assets are from the obscure sources. Further, the political groups may change over the gigantic amounts they get into single donations of Rs 1990 which prompts more paperwork. In this way, it doesn't take care of the issue altogether.
The state financing of elections is hard to screen in light of the fact that for the Vidhan Sabha elections, the cutoff is 28 Lakhs yet the political groups spend in crores. The 28 Lakh given by the state will run financed with the black money utilized by the political groups.
The legislature has proposed 'electoral bonds' where the donor's identity won't be known to the beneficiary. This can be counterproductive in light of the fact that the identity of the contributor won't be hidden from the legislature and the government will be aware of the data. So it resembles the administration command over the political groups.
Absence of Transparency in relation to electoral bonds, therefore, means that the name of the benefactor won't be uncovered either to the gathering or to the general population. Along these lines, the issue to supplant anonymous donations and achieve transparency and responsibility towards voters will continue as before. It just advances the way of life of haziness that infests India's present political account routine. Major issues due to lack of transparency in the electoral bonds include:
- Generation of black money: Opacity will prompt increasingly more black money into the political framework.
- Political corporate nexus: Government removal on the limit of donations to political parties by enterprises in March 2017 and the present principle of keeping up secrecy of the donor additionally expands the corporate and legislators nexus to progress in the direction of the satisfaction of their own narrow-minded points. It will hamper popular government and making it less liable to the individual voter and increasingly receptive to profound pocket particular vested parties.
- The reaction in execution: Given that the State Bank of India is claimed by the Union government, this raises the idea that information on donors could be made accessible to the political parties to be utilized to its advantage. So the electoral bonds plan may not work by any stretch of the imagination. Most private contributors lean toward obscurity because of a paranoid fear of retaliation from political parties. They would proceed with a donation of money under the Rs 2,000 chunk and by means of appointive trusts where anonymity is maintained
The existing methods for political funding are not transparent thereby leading to corruption and a 'kickback' for the government. Electoral bonds and anonymous donations, including donations from foreign companies lead to corporate control and an increase in black money in the economy of India. Thus, transparency for the public is opaque.[11]
Guaranteeing financial transparency in the undertakings of the political parties just as of candidates is, in this way, of most extreme significance. The issue of cleaning the political finance system is worldwide which every democracy is battling with it. Be that as it may, India is a long way behind worldwide benchmarks, flawed as they might be.
In order to improve the current funding scenario in Indian politics by accounting every penny donated to the political parties through the method of digital transactions. Also, the system of electoral bonds should be removed and the provisions leading to corporate funding and funding from foreign sources should be amended.
As discussed by the Indrajit Gupta Committee of 1999, funding of political parties should be done by the States in the form of State funding. State funding in the elections seems to be a solution to the current problems to the political funding scheme as it will lead to democracy of political parties internally. The committee recommends the need to create a legal framework in order to regulate and revise the funding of elections by political parties. It has also recommended that the state funding to the political parties should be made on the basis of the performance of such party.
Incorporating a National Electoral Fund whereby the information with regard to the donors shall not be disclosed and such donations will be made like that to the country and not a political party can be a viable alternative. This Fund then may distribute the money to political parties on the basis of the votes they obtain and their performance. A tax benefit can be provided on those people who donate to the Fund.
Thus, in order to achieve transparency in political funding, firstly, the State needs to take requisite steps to keep large amounts of money outside the scope of politics in order to control private financing; secondly, to create a public financing and disclosing the identity of donors leading to transparency; thirdly, to create laws with regard to state funding of political campaigns.

Painted Cat
10x10" oil on canvas
This painting represents what painting is all about for me. I'm not saying this is something miraculous for anyone but me. The melding of abstract gesture with representational form is always what I'm hoping for. But for it to be real it has to flow forth purely. The melding has to happen during the painting process, it's not the result of clever planning, rather it's a way of painting where this happens spontaneously.

A father from Haifa claims that the Israel Police is not taking his son's complaint about an attack on Thursday seriously. According to him, his son was targeted because he is Arab and the attackers only released him when they figured out that he is Christian.

A Haifa man claims that one of his twin sons was attacked on Thursday afternoon by religious Jewish boys who were waiting for him after school. According to the father, one of his sons and his friends eventually managed to escape but his other son was not so lucky.
"I saw my son return home in a bad state, scared," the father told Channel 2 Online. "He didn't want to talk for 20 minutes." The father added that his sons study at a local school that is near a religious school. "My son told me that within a few minutes, a white Hyundai pulled up next to the [bus] stop," he continued. "Three young people got out and started to punch them. One of my sons and his friends got away. My son who stayed there was severely beaten by the same attackers."
"At some point, they threw him in the car- they just kidnapped my son," he explained, adding that the attackers verbally abused his son while he was in their vehicle. "When they saw the cross around his neck, they attackers said to him, 'Oh, you're Christian? If you were a Muslim, we would kill you now.' After a few minutes, they tossed him out of the car."
"When I understood what happened, I immediately returned from work and took them to the police station to file a complaint," the father continued. The father is convinced that his son was targeted because he is Arab. He said that it is clear to him that this was a nationalistically-motived attack, "not bullying or anything else." The father added that he is disappointed with the Israel Police's handling of the complaint so far and accused the officers of not taking it seriously.
"Immediately after receiving the complaint, officers launched an investigation," the Israel Police stated in response to the father's claims. "It's unclear on what these feelings against the police investigation, at a time when it is still in its beginning stages and being conducted professionally and with great force, are based. The Israel Police views very seriously every act of violence."

Have you ever had homemade pumpkin pie? No, I don't mean the slice that you bought at Marie Callendars restaurant and brought home to eat. I mean a pie that you whisked and creamed and baked in your own oven!
Now I'm not saying you're hand scraping and roasting the baking pumpkins from your glorious garden, there may even be a can or two of pumpkin purée, but this is the real deal! It's light, creamy and not overly sweet. Once it's time for dessert, just add some homemade whipped cream and marvel in all of the "mmms, yumms, oohs & ahhs" you're about to receive! This one will make a believer out your most finicky pumpkin pie eater, which used to be me. 😉
The Starting Lineup
- 1 pie crust (home made or store bought)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3 large eggs, plus 2 egg yolks
- 4oz bourbon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 (15oz) can of pumpkin purée (NOT pumpkin pie filling)
- 1 cup candied yams, drained from can
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup real maple syrup
- 1/4 ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1 tsp salt
Now I do prefer to make my own buttery pie crust and with this recipe I always parbake my crust so that it has some texture to the bottom and doesn't get soggy. That is a personal preference though..some people love the softer bottomed crust.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and place a rimmed foil-covered baking sheet to heat up as well.
….To begin the filling! In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream, milk, eggs & yolks, bourbon and vanilla extract. Set aside.
In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the pumpkin purée, candied yams, sugar, maple syrup, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Bring to a simmer and mash and stir the mixture together continuously until thickened. This will be nice and glossy after about 10-12 minutes of doing so.
Remove the purée from the heat and slowly whisk in the cream mixture (slowly so the eggs do not scramble in the hot purée).
Next, strain this mixture through a fine mesh strainer over a large bowl while pressing down the remaining chunks with a rubber spatula. Once it's all sieved through, re-whisk.
Pour this yummy, custard'y mixture into your prepared pie pan/crust. Give a little jiggle to evenly distribute and place the pan directly onto the preheated baking sheet into the oven.
Allow to bake at 425 degrees for 10 minutes *I like to cover my crust in either the beginning or end to reduce over browning. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees and continue to bake for another 30-35, or until the pie is set and jiggles only slightly. *It will continue to cook and set once removed from the oven. Allow to cool completely before serving or refrigerated. *Keep in the refridgerator overnight if serving the next day.

Information on Tablets A-Z
LevsinPronounced: LEV-sin
Generic name: Hyoscyamine sulfate
Other brand names: Anaspaz Levbid Levsinex NuLev
Why is this drug prescribed: Levsin is an antispasmodic medication given to help treat various stomach, intestinal, and urinary tract disorders that involve cramps, colic, or other painful muscle contractions. Because Levsin has a drying effect, it may also be used to dry a runny nose or to dry excess secretions before anesthesia is administered. Together with morphine or other narcotics, Levsin is prescribed for the pain of gallstones or kidney stones. For inflammation of the pancreas, Levsin may be used to help control excess secretions and reduce pain. Levsin may also be taken in Parkinson's disease to help reduce muscle rigidity and tremors and to help control drooling and excess sweating. The drug is sometimes prescribed during treatment for peptic ulcer. Doctors also give Levsin as part of the preparation for certain diagnostic x-rays (for example, of the stomach, intestines, or kidneys). Levsin comes in several forms, including regular tablets, tablets to be dissolved under the tongue, tablets that dissolve on the tongue (NuLev), sustained-release capsules (Levsinex Timecaps) and sustained-release tablets (Levbid), liquid, drops, and an injectable solution.
Most important fact about this drug: Levsin may make you sweat less, causing your body temperature to increase and putting you at the risk of heatstroke. Try to stay inside as much as possible on hot days, and avoid warm places such as very hot baths and saunas.
How should you take this medication: If you take Levsin for a stomach disorder, you may also need to take antacid medication. However, antacids make Levsin more difficult for the body to absorb. To minimize this problem, take Levsin before meals and the antacid after meals. Take Levsin exactly as prescribed. Although the sublingual tablets (Levsin/SL) are designed to be dissolved under the tongue, they may also be chewed or swallowed. The regular tablets should be swallowed. Levbid extended-release tablets should not be crushed or chewed. NuLev tablets should be placed on the tongue, allowed to disintegrate, then swallowed. They can be taken with or without water. Levsin can cause dry mouth. For temporary relief, suck on a hard candy or chew gum. --If you miss a dose... Take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to your regular schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once. --Storage instructions... Store at room temperature. Protect NuLev tablets from moisture.
What side effects may occur: Side effects cannot be anticipated. If any side effects develop or change in intensity, tell your doctor immediately. Only your doctor can determine whether it is safe for you to continue taking Levsin. Side effects may include: Allergic reactions, bloating, blurred vision, confusion, constipation, decreased sweating, dilated pupils, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth, excitement, headache, hives impotence, inability to urinate insomnia, itching, heart palpitations, lack of coordination loss of sense of taste, nausea, nervousness, rapid heartbeat, skin reactions, speech problems, vomiting, weakness
Why should this drug not be prescribed: Do not take Levsin if you have ever had an allergic reaction to it or similar drugs such as scopolamine. Also, you should not be given Levsin if you have any of the following: Bowel or digestive tract obstruction or paralysis Glaucoma (excessive pressure in the eyes) Myasthenia gravis (a disorder in which muscles become weak and tire easily) Ulcerative colitis (severe bowel inflammation) Urinary obstruction Levsin is not appropriate if you have diarrhea, especially if you have a surgical opening to the bowels (an ileostomy or colostomy).
Special warnings about this medication: Be careful using Levsin if you have an overactive thyroid gland, heart disease, congestive heart failure, irregular heartbeats, high blood pressure, or kidney disease. Because Levsin may make you dizzy or drowsy, or blur your vision, do not drive, operate other machinery, or do any other hazardous work while taking this medication. While you are taking Levsin, you may experience confusion, disorientation, short-term memory loss, hallucinations, difficulty speaking, lack of coordination, coma, an exaggerated sense of well-being, decreased anxiety, fatigue, sleeplessness and agitation. These symptoms should disappear 12 to 48 hours after you stop taking the drug. People who must avoid phenylalanine should note that NuLev tablets contain this substance.
Possible food and drug interactions when taking this medication: If Levsin is taken with certain other drugs, the effects of either drug could be increased, decreased, or altered. It is especially important to check with your doctor before combining Levsin with the following: Amantadine (Symmetrel) Antacids Antidepressant drugs such as Elavil, Nardil, Parnate, and Tofranil Antihistamines such as Benadryl Major tranquilizers such as Thorazine and Haldol Other antispasmodic drugs such as Bentyl Potassium supplements such as Slow-K
Special information if you are pregnant or breastfeeding: If you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant, inform your doctor immediately. Although it is not known whether Levsin can cause birth defects, pregnant women should avoid all drugs except those necessary to health. Levsin appears in breast milk. Your doctor may ask you to forgo breastfeeding when taking this drug.
Recommended dosage: LEVSIN, LEVSIN/SL, AND NULEV TABLETS: Adults and Children 12 Years of Age and Older The usual dose is 1 to 2 tablets every 4 hours or as needed. Do not take more than 12 tablets in 24 hours. Children 2 to Under 12 Years of Age The usual dose is one-half to 1 tablet every 4 hours or as needed. Do not give a child more than 6 tablets in 24 hours. LEVSIN ELIXIR: Adults and Children 12 Years of Age and Older The recommended dosage is 1 to 2 teaspoonfuls every 4 hours or as needed, but no more than 12 teaspoonfuls in 24 hours. Children 2 to 12 Years of Age Dosage is by body weight. Doses may be given every 4 hours or as needed. Do not give a child more than 6 teaspoonfuls in 24 hours.
Overdosage: Any medication taken in excess can have serious consequences. If you suspect an overdose, seek medical attention immediately. Symptoms of Levsin overdose may include: Blurred vision, dilated pupils, dizziness, dry mouth, excitement, headache, hot dry skin, nausea, swallowing difficulty, vomiting

An evil numbers wizard once told me that swords perform better than spears with -1 to hit and spears are better with a +1 to hit relative to each other. I have them kitted out with Spears however over the course of a game I am sure there will be a few combats where one option would be better than the other. As I said i take spears as I allow myself to maximise my attacks more often, and we love rolling dice right? but once you have circled that poor defenseless dragon with swords he is more dead than he already was. In summary "meh" you choice will be right as much as it was wrong. With regards to the msu choice I cant see a scenario that skeletons can out perform the chainrasps. They have twice the number of attacks, a better move, a much better save against rend and can fly. Only scenario I can see is to fill out a battalion requirement.
I don't think I would ever take 30 or less skeletons. As soon as you loose one model your loosing a attack. 40 points for another 10 is just too good to pass up. if you need to fill a battle line and only have your 240 points available, then personally I would be taking Chainrasps.
To build on Honk's point I think Arkhan is the best fit for a mortarch with Nagash. His command ability can be really great to extend the range of spells, just watch out with him. He is super easy to kill
VLoZD Artefact - Ethereal v GFC
Teuchter replied to Lemon Knuckles's topic in DeathInteresting. I never really considered the GFC for my VLoZD. Also not that he needs it but you also gain +1 movement which is pretty decent. Would have helped when my VLoZD got murdered off the board to a unit of 10 retributors... probably still would have been murdered... just less so
@Hoseman No problem. If you want to go with the Legion of Night for the Ambush playstyle you will need to use Manfred as your Mortarch if you want to run one at all. Not played with legion of night before, but I think that Morghasts would be pretty good coming in off the side with Manfred. Specifically Harbingers with Spirit Halberds, as they get to use 3d6 for charge rolls. Also deathrattle units get +1 to save if they are wholely withing your own territory so skeletons get even better in this legion. You mentioned that you were looking for which box you should look to purchase. The blades for the blood queen box would give you a great supplement to your army, as you get a Mortarch kit and 2 Morghasts plus more skeletons. You also get a wight king and 10 Grave Guard, which are okay, but I personally wouldn't build an army around them. Also I wouldn't say Neferata is necessarily better than Arkhan. They are just different.
@HosemanUnfortunately if you chose to take Arkhan your list has to be in a Legions of Sacrament or Grand Host of Nagash. Basically each of the different allegiances in the Legions of Nagash book state that if you take a mortarch it in Legions of Night/Blood/Sacrament it has to be that legions mortarch and they have to be the general. So if you change to Neferata, then you would have to take a Legion of Blood or Grand Host of Nagash. I would also strongly recommend that you find a way to bump your skeletons up to a unit of 40 as that only costs an extra 40 points, and you have to loose 11 models before you go down to 2 attacks per model. The chainrasp horde work fine in smaller units like you have listed. I think getting the extra command point is a good idea, but I look at that list and I am not sure how it kills things/wins games. If you want to stick with Arkhan and maybe use the legions of sacrament I find that the spirit hosts are pretty good. But I would look to increase the unit size to 6. 3 can be quite lacklustre as you are just not rolling enough dice to get those 6's for mortal wounds. Alternatively you could look to increase the size of your reapers. Also if you quite like Arkhan (Why not he is awesome) and you have not built the coven throne yet you could look at the Lords of Sacrament Battalion. It uses Arkhan, a Mortis Engine and 2+ Necromancers. and it gives models in the battalion +1 cast each and +1 to save rolls for the battalion in the shooting phase while they are withing 6" of the mortis engine. could be a way to go if it sounds appealing to you. Anyway its food for thought
Not tried the first cohort, but honestly I am not too tempted to either. If i did I think it would change it up a little. Nagash Necro 2x Archai 2x 40 Skellies 1x 10 Skellies First Cohort Spell Portal 1990 Gives you more board control and Nagash does not need 4 morghast to make a deathball. He is a death ball already! Ill give my new list a try with the Grimghast which look like they will be pretty sweet. going to do a few weeks of list tinkering before my next event, then get a few weeks of "no changes to the list" practice.
Played it last night against an objectively super competitive Daughters of Khaine list and player. Felt pretty good, however a few serious misplays by me in hindsight cost me the game. Also this DoK list puts out a serious number of attacks, I cant even imagine what it would have done to me without Neferatas Command ability giving them minus 1 to hit. Had minus 2 on morathi but she was still just chewing through me! However I have decided to paint up my Nagash: Nagash, Necro, VL (Flying) 30 Grimghasts 40 Skellies 10 Chainrasps 2x5 Dire Wolves Spell Portal

I am assuming it stands for Vanhel's Danse Macabre, a necromancers warscroll spell which makes a summonable unit able to pile in and attack twice in your next combat phase. I agree. I have gone off the list to be honest. It was a bit of a Eureka moment followed by the relisation as I played it out in my head that 400 points is a lot to spend on making Nagash immune to rend. Nefferata isn't up to much without her command ability. Looking at this list now and will try it out tonight. Grand Host of Nagash: VLoZD (General, Lord of Nagashazzir, Etheral Amulet, Vile Transferance) Neferata (Overwhelming Dread) Necromancer (Fadind Vigor) VL ((Flying, Amaranthine Orb) too much fun on a 9+ cast) 40x Skellies (Spears) 30x Chainrasps 5x Dire Wolves 2x Morghast Harbingers (Spirit Halbreds) Then im not sure if i want to use cogs or another unit of Dogs for 1950... I will decide on the drive home.

Teuchter replied to @aosbatrep's topic in EventsGreat event! Got a great laugh by winning a bar of Fine Orkney Soap for helping clean up Kev's filthy list! A big thank you again Stu for organising a fantastic event!
Dreamed up this list today. Bit concerned with how many points are spent on heroes but it just seems pretty tasty. Nagash Neferata Necromancer 40x Skellies 30x Chainrasp Horde 5x Dire Wolves Spell Portal 1950 points Idea is to make Nagash immune to rend and if it doesnt look like the skellies are going to be removed in the game use the extra command point on Neferata's command ability to make the ultimate attrition force, which definatley packs a punch! Also there's an option to drop the 30 chainrasps and the spell portal and swap in 40 more skeletons and take shackles for 1950 points again. or Drop the chainrasps to 20 take and extra unit of Dire Wolves and take the shackles. Interested to hear your thoughts.

Casino workers at Star Gold Coast are in the process of Enterprise Bargaining Agreement negotiations to determine their pay and conditions in a new agreement.
Due to the fact the negotiations have gone past the expiry of the previous agreement, and the new financial year is the traditional time staff would receive a pay rise, the bargaining team requested an interim pay rise from Star for a show of good faith.
As a result, the company agreed to give every team member under the agreement a 1.5 per cent interim pay rise from July 2.
This amount is only a portion of the total pay rise to come, as the final amount is still to be determined in the bargaining process. The Star management team also agreed to back pay the final sum to July 2.
This shows that negotiations are progressing well, and will provide some pay stability for United Voice members while bargaining continues.
Workers at Star can only achieve this because they've banded together in their union. If you want to be part of that in your workplace - join here.

Randy and Sherri Miller: Lyrics, Laughter and LoveWritten by SGN Scoops Staff on March 21, 2013 – 6:53 pm -
Randy and Sherri Miller are accomplished Gospel artists who are singing, speaking
and laughing their way across America. Randy is a Kingsmen alumni, a recipient of numerous
Singing News and other Southern Gospel awards and a lifetime inductee of the Alabama Music
Hall of Fame. Sherri sang with her family, The Kenny Parker Trio, before doing session and
stage work with such artists as Dolly Parton, The Judds and Michael English. Today this couple
has joined their accomplished vocals, love of life and ability to make others laugh as they share
their music with audiences far and wide.
When Randy Miller left the Kingsmen, he began a solo career and started Snippa Creek Studios.
Sherri Parker Miller joins her husband in making music and laughter with their recently released
Randy Miller Comedy album and the soon-to-be released Where It All Comes From. If
something taps into your emotions, whether through humor or song, it will work its way into
your heart; but it all comes from the Lord as far as the Millers are concerned.
The title track of Where It All Comes From is sung by Sherri and written by Kenna Turner West,
one of Southern Gospel's most prolific songwriters. The song is currently on Sound Cloud and
showcases the versatility of this talented couple. Kenna says, "Sherri is an amazing vocal talent
and all who know her appreciate her sweet, joyful spirit."
Dusty Wells, head of sales and marketing at Word Entertainment, shares, "I love Sherri! I
remember the first time I met Sherri was at the National Quartet Convention years ago while
sitting with Dottie Rambo at The Rambo's booth. I knew of her because her Daddy, Kenny
Parker, was The Rambo's long time pianist. So when this blonde curly haired little beauty of a
girl came to the booth, Dottie just went on and on about her and how special she was. Our
friendship grew over the years."
"What I love about Sherri is that not only is she a wonderful singer and communicator,
but she is a lover of people," says Wells. "She is always consistent, always happy and always
caring for others. I love her spirit and I love that God is using her. She is so special and I cherish
her friendship!"
Another close friend of the couple is Johnathan Bond of Young Harmony. "I love Sherri and
Randy because they practice what they preach, plus they are awesome to be around. Also, during
a very dark period of my life, they offered a shoulder. They are Christians in action!" Read more »

A Message From Johnathan BondWritten by Scoops Staff on April 3, 2011 – 8:42 pm -
It says in Romans chapter 11 "The calling of God is without repentance." I've seen many changes in life over the past couple of years. But I have to say whatever may come, whatever may go, I still choose to follow the calling that God has given me.
Effective May 1st, both Noel Walters and Darlene Chapman will be stepping down from Young Harmony. Darlene has been having some heath issues and is currently facing back surgery making it very hard to travel. She has been a major blessing to the group, as well as a long time friend. Please pray for each of us as we all continue serving the Lord, separately.
I will continue doing revivals and concerts, and going where GOD sends me. For schedule dates go to JohnathanBond.com or YoungHarmony.com
Thank you for your prayers,
Hope to see you soon.
– Johnathan

BTW what I have suggested is not a standardized feature, just an example of how to code a programmatically associated long description. I consider it a requirement for HTML5 that standardized language feature (attribute or element) for providing a programmatically associated long description is specified.

A book a day...keeps insanity away! I am an avid book reader. When I am not reading, I love to play the piano, sing, or shop until I drop! Reading has been a huge part of my life since I was young and my Mom introduced me to the public library! Since then I have not stopped reading! I hope you enjoy my reviews!

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green, Book Review
Despite the tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel's story is about to be completely rewritten.
My Review:
Well I am still thinking about The Fault in Our Stars even though I finished reading it over three days ago. If you judge how good a book is based on how often you think of the story once you are finished, then you could consider this one a winner. For me personally, there was a lot of hype for this book, so I went in with high expectations. While I found the characters had real to life attributes and attitudes, I also found their outlooks very different than expected. Maybe that is part of the draw of this book, it is the epitome of the unexpected in this reader's opinion. Hazel and Augustus are a rare pair and an unlikely match in some ways. They just "get" each other and there is the element of understanding that probably no one else could even get close to in their situations. It was refreshing in a way to view their unique perspectives and it really made me ponder about the tough subject of cancer and how it really affects people. So why did this reader not give the book five stars? Ah, well I hate spoilers and I refuse to put one in here. Just suffice it to say that while I understood why the book ended the way that it did, but it completely frustrated me! Also, I was not understanding at all of "the universe wants to be noticed" instead of any direct reference to God, a supreme being or an after-life. Personally, that sucked all the hope and comfort out of a terminally ill cancer patient's future. Don't we all need hope and something to cling to, like faith? Even if you aren't a person who is Christian, most people believe in some type of an after-life and the fact that Hazel really doesn't believe in that at all, bothered me to no end! Everyone NEEDS hope!!!! Rant over, you will have to read it for yourself and decide your own thoughts. I believe that the story will draw you in as it did me, and perhaps you will appreciate the ending more than I.
Rating: Language and teenage sexual references
You can pick up your own copy of The Fault in Our Stars via Amazon.
Happy Reading!!!
