Robert Mueller's team has prosecuted high-stakes cases —   including obstruction of justice

When one of the country’s largest accounting firms destroyed thousands of files and emails after the Enron energy giant collapsed in a massive fraud in 2001, federal prosecutors were sure the shredding was a clear case of obstruction of justice.

“This case was really about a simple principle,” Andrew Weissmann, the lead prosecutor on the Arthur Andersen accounting scandal, said at the time. “Which is, when you expect the police, don’t destroy evidence.”

After the company appealed its conviction, saying prosecutors had bent the law in an overzealous pursuit of a culprit, deputy solicitor general Michael Dreeben told the Supreme Court that the government’s aggressive approach was justified.

“It’s the corporate equivalent of seeing something that looks like a crime scene and sending somebody in before the police can get the yellow tape up, to wipe down the fingerprints,” Dreeben argued.

The court unanimously disagreed in 2005, tossing the conviction out due to improper instruction of the jury. By then, Arthur Andersen had given up its U.S. accounting licenses and 85,000 people had lost their jobs.

Dreeben and Weissmann will bring that searing experience to their new jobs working for Robert S. Mueller III, the special counsel investigating any links or coordination between President Trump’s associates and the Russian government — a probe that has expanded to include whether the president sought to obstruct an FBI investigation.

Mueller has made no public comments since he was appointed May 17, but his first 13 hires speak volumes: They include veteran prosecutors who spent years unraveling complicated conspiracies in high-pressure cases. Some legal experts say that may be bad news for the president.

“These are guys that have a particular skill set that seems uncomfortably close to a potential case against Donald Trump,” said Jonathan Turley, a law professor at George Washington University, who says he is skeptical of the publicly available evidence so far.

“This is a team with prosecutors who have not been timid in stretching the criminal code when it comes to prosecutions,” he added.

Trump, who has repeatedly denied collusion with Moscow or obstruction of justice, on Friday denounced Mueller’s team for what he claimed was partisan bias.

“I can say that the people that have been hired are all Hillary Clinton supporters, some of them worked for Hillary Clinton,” Trump said in an interview on “Fox & Friends.” “I mean, the whole thing is ridiculous if you want to know the truth.”

He also criticized Mueller’s friendship with James B. Comey as “very bothersome.” Comey succeeded Mueller as FBI director until Trump fired him May 9, apparently out of anger at the FBI’s investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.

“Robert Mueller is an honorable man and hopefully he’ll come up with an honorable conclusion,” Trump added.

To staff up, Mueller — who is a registered Republican — first turned to WilmerHale, the Washington-based law firm he joined after leaving the FBI in 2013.

WilmerHale also represents Trump’s daughter Ivanka and her husband, Jared Kushner, as well as Trump’s former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, in the Russia probes. After an ethics review, the Justice Department determined that Mueller did not have a conflict of interest.

Mueller picked two trusted colleagues from the firm: James Quarles III and Aaron Zebley, in his first round of hires.

Quarles helped bring down a president in the 1970s as a member of the Watergate special prosecutor’s team investigating President Nixon. He later focused his practice on civil litigation.

Zebley, Mueller’s longtime chief of staff at the FBI, is a national security expert: he worked in the Justice Department’s national security division and as an FBI counter-terrorism agent. He also served as an assistant U.S. attorney in Alexandria, Va.

A federal grand jury there appears to be part of the FBI investigation: It has issued subpoenas to associates of Michael Flynn, who was ousted in February as Trump’s national security advisor for lying about his Russian contacts.

Mueller also hired Jeannie Rhee, a former deputy assistant attorney general in the Justice Department, where she advised the Obama White House and other departments on criminal law, executive privilege and national security.

He also brought on Lisa Page, an FBI lawyer who specializes in money laundering and organized crime, and Elizabeth Prelogar, a former Supreme Court clerk who speaks Russian. She joined Mueller from the Solicitor General’s office.

Peter Carr, Mueller’s spokesman, said additional hires were in the pipeline. None of the lawyers hired so far were giving interviews.

Despite Trump’s complaints of political bias, the group’s known affiliations are a mix.

Mueller is a longtime Republican. President George W. Bush appointed him as FBI director a week before the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. President Obama asked him to stay in the post for two years beyond the normal 10-year term.

At least four members of his team — Quarles, Weissmann, Rhee and Prelogar — have given money to Democrats, with total contributions of about $50,000 since 1990, campaign finance records show. Rhee also has done legal work for the Clinton Foundation, a nonprofit organization that operates as a worldwide charity.

Quarles gave the most — more than $34,000, including the maximum of $2,700 to Clinton’s presidential campaign last year. He mostly backed Democrats, but he gave $2,500 to Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), and $250 to former Rep. George Allen (R-Va.)

Rod Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general who appointed Mueller, told Congress on June 13 that he didn’t think campaign contributions by lawyers on the team amounted to an ethical conflict.

Richard J. Davis, who worked on the Watergate task force, said Nixon and his aides leveled the same charges of bias against prosecutors during the Watergate scandal.

“People are going to yell and scream and it’s going to be this and that in terms of publicity,” he said. “We tended to get used to it and to some extent ignore it.”

As a deputy solicitor general, Dreeben has argued more than 100 cases before the Supreme Court, mostly on questions of criminal law. His knowledge of federal statutes will be invaluable as Mueller considers what conduct might justify filing criminal charges, legal experts say.

“Literally I’ve seen him give an argument to the Supreme Court without a single note. He does it routinely,” said Paul Rosenzweig, a lawyer who served as a deputy assistant secretary at the Department of Homeland Security.

“You and I read those cases and try to interpret them from a cold record. Dreeben litigated all of them,” Rosenzweig said. “That’s the difference between watching the movie, and acting in it. It’s like having a good criminal law encyclopedia.”

Weissmann is expected to play a key management role on Mueller’s team. They worked together at the FBI for several years, where Weissman served as special counsel and later as general counsel.

In 2015, Weissmann was named head of the criminal fraud division. He oversaw high-profile FBI probes into Volkswagen AG over diesel-cheating, global banks over market manipulation and Brazil’s state-owned oil company Petrobras over corrupt payments.

He also launched a pilot program that offered incentives for companies to self-report possible violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits bribing foreign officials. Several years earlier, during a stint in private practice, he cited corruption in Russia as he argued for rewriting federal standards.

“The statute should take into account the realities that confront businesses that operate in countries with endemic corruption (e.g., Russia, which is consistently ranked by Transparency International as among the most corrupt in the world),” he wrote in prepared testimony for a Senate subcommittee in 2010.

Weissmann cut his teeth as a federal prosecutor in Brooklyn in the 1990s, where he tried more than two dozen cases that systematically took apart the leadership of New York’s powerful Mafia families.

Among them: Vincent “The Chin” Gigante, accused boss of the Genovese crime family, who wandered streets in a bathrobe and whose lawyers claimed he was mentally unfit to stand trial. Weissmann convinced a judge that Gigante was faking; he was convicted in 1997 and died in prison.

Samuel Buell, who worked on the Enron task force with Weissmann, said he typifies the relentless, hard-core prosecutors bred in the U.S. attorney’s offices in Manhattan and Brooklyn.

“It’s not swagger,” said Buell, now a law professor at Duke University. “It’s a confidence that after six or eight or 10 years, ‘I’m not going to see a problem I can’t handle. There’s no case that’s going to be over my head.’”

Buell said Mueller’s first hires should not be viewed as a road map for where he will take his investigation. He said Mueller appears focused on hiring talented lawyers whom he knows and trusts.

Still, the hires suggest a legal strategy that was key to prosecutions of the Enron fraud and the mob families in New York. In both cases, convictions depended in large part on witnesses who agreed to testify to escape long prison terms.

No one has been charged in the Russia case. But lower-level figures ultimately may face pressure to cooperate with Mueller’s team, especially if it will lead to higher-ups.

“You don’t get all dressed up for some special counsel party and just come out of it with a well-thumbed report,” said Turley, the legal scholar. “Weissmann is trained to find a weak link and break it.”

Dan Cogdell, a Houston defense lawyer who had a cooperating client in the Enron case, said Weissmann may be the most aggressive prosecutor he ever faced in a white-collar criminal case.

“Once he believes he understands the facts, he is very difficult to move either way,” said Cogdell. “He’s very self-righteous in his belief system.”

“He is Trump’s worst nightmare if we believe that Trump, or anyone else, has done anything wrong,” he said. “He’s the very last guy you want coming at you.”

Woman hurt, electric poles damaged in Escondido DUI crash

A woman who police say was under the influence of alcohol was injured early Saturday morning after crashing her car into two wooden utility poles in Escondido, police said.

The solo-vehicle crash happened about 2:45 a.m. on West Mission Avenue between Metcalf Avenue and Rock Springs Road, Escondido police Sgt. Chris Leso said.

The impact sheared both poles off, and the wreckage came to rest against a third pole.

The street was shut down for much of the morning so that San Diego Gas & Electric workers could de-energize the electric lines and begin repairs on the electrical system.

The woman, whose name was not released, will face DUI and possibly other charges. She was taken to a hospital for treatment of numerous non-life threatening injuries, police said.

Saltbox Restaurant to Open at Se Hotel

The Se Hotel is home to one of the most gorgeous restaurant spaces in the city; a two-story venue with downtown views, architectural diversity, and edgy, modern design. However, the hotel’s first fine dining establishment, Suite & Tender, just couldn’t make it work. Locals were looking for something more approachable, and affordable, when faced with Suite & Tender’s fancy décor and pricy surf 'n' turf.

Turning a new page, Saltbox, a Kimpton restaurant, is set to transform the former Suite & Tender space this fall. Saltbox is a New American gastro-lounge under the culinary direction of Executive Chef Simon Dolinky that is slated to open doors on Friday, September 23.

The name Saltbox is said to draw inspiration from the Gaslamp Quarter’s urban history; specifically, the pre-frame lumber “saltbox” houses that once occupied the Fifth Avenue space where the restaurant is now. The interior design will remain high-end, emphasizing sleek, sophisticated comfort, and will seat 175 guests within the dining room, bar and lounge.

What will really bring this old venue new life is Executive Chef Simon Dolinky’s New American gastro-lounge menu, featuring versatile shared plates that can be custom ordered larger or smaller, to fit the size of your party. The ingredients-driven “social plates” will be flavorful, simple, playful and fresh, and will all be priced under $25. On the menu, which isn’t yet released in full, you can expect to see highlights such as Lobster Corn Dogs with ginger remoulade; Beef Cheek Tacos with snap pea kim chee; and Crispy Fried Asparagus with poached egg and paprika vinaigrette. Before opening Saltbox, Simon Dolinky was chef of BLVD 16 Restaurant at the Hotel Palomar in Los Angeles and sous chef at JSix at Hotel Solamar in San Diego under Christian Graves.

A big draw in the San Diego nightlife scene, Saltbox will also offer an advanced cocktail menu created by in-house Master Mixologist Erin Williams, who hails from the renowned Pegu Club in New York City. The gastro-lounge bar program aims to do for handcrafted cocktails and spirits what the gastro-pub has done for beer in San Diego, and beyond.

FutureMark releases VRMark to benchmark your PC for VR use

VRMark comes with two VR benchmark tests, which you can run on your desktop monitor, no headset required, or on a connected HMD. There is also a free-roaming Experience mode that lets you judge the quality of a system’s VR performance with your own eyes.

Is your PC VR ready? Find out with VRMark, the virtual reality benchmark
The performance requirements for VR games are much higher than for typical PC games. So if you’re thinking about buying an HTC Vive or an Oculus Rift this holiday, wouldn’t it be good to know that your PC is ready for VR?

VRMark includes two VR benchmark tests that run on your monitor, no headset required. At the end of each test, you’ll see whether your PC is VR-ready, and if not, how far it falls short.

Orange Room benchmark
The VRMark Orange Room benchmark shows the impressive level of detail that can be achieved on a PC that meets the recommended hardware requirements for the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift. If your PC passes this test, it’s ready for the two most popular VR systems available today.

Blue Room benchmark
The VRMark Blue Room benchmark is a more demanding test with a greater level of detail. It is the ideal benchmark for comparing high-end systems with specs above the recommended requirements for the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift. A PC that passes this test will be able to run the latest VR games at the highest settings, and may even be VR-ready for the next generation of VR headsets.

Results and reporting
After running a benchmark, you’ll see clearly whether your PC is VR-ready or not. To pass, your PC has to meet or exceed the target frame rate without dropping frames. You also get an overall score, which you can use to compare systems.

Hardware monitoring charts show how your PC performed frame-by-frame. There are charts for frame rate, GPU frequency, GPU load, and GPU temperature.

Experience mode
VR headsets use clever techniques to compensate for missed frames. With Experience mode, you can judge the quality of the VR experience with your own eyes. VRMark Experience mode features free movement, spatial audio, and an interactive flashlight for lighting up the details of the scene. Explore each scene in your own time in VR or on your monitor.

SCC Student Janel Orton Awarded Phi Theta Kappa’s Guistwhite Scholarship

West Burlington, IA- SCC student and Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) member, Janel Orton, was awarded PTK’s Guistwhite Scholarship for 2015. Orton was selected for the $5,000 scholarship from a pool of over 1,700 applicants from community colleges across the nation.

Orton was chosen for the scholarship based on her academic achievements, leadership accomplishments, and engagement in PTK programs.

“Thanks to my PTK advisor, Carlene Woodside, encouraging me to apply for the scholarship, I’ve been fortunate to receive recognition and scholarships that I otherwise would’ve never applied for.”

Orton, along with 14 other Guistwhite scholars, will be honored at PTK’s Annual Convention in San Antonia, Texas, April 16-18.

Each year, $75,000 in scholarship funds are awarded, with each Guistwhite Scholar receiving a $5,000 scholarship for baccalaureate studies and a commemorative medallion.

The Guistwhite Scholar Program was created in memory of Dr. Jack Guistwhite and his widow, Margaret Guistwhite. Dr. Guistwhite established the first designated transfer scholarship for PTK members at Florida Atlantic University in 1975. PTK established the Guistwhite Scholarships in 1992.

Orton says the scholarship will help fund her education at the University of Iowa.

“I transferred to the University of Iowa in January where I’m majoring in Accounting at the Tippie College of Business. The scholarship money will help with my tuition.”

SCC PTK Advisor, Carlene Woodside, says Orton is a great example of Phi Theta Kappa’s core values and purpose.

“Janel has been a very active leader in PTK and her efforts and positive attitude have made her a wonderful role model for other SCC students both in and outside of PTK.”

Orton noted that being involved in PTK encouraged her to take a more active role at SCC and in the community.

“Thanks to PTK, I had the opportunity to participate in community and college activities such as volunteering for the bone marrow registry drive and providing meals for the C.H.A.D. program. PTK really enriched my experience at SCC and gave me the opportunity to engage with my classmates and instructors and give back to my community.”

SCHOTT expands U.S. Manufacturing with investment in new generation of pharma vials

International technology group SCHOTT has expanded its investment in the latest generation of pharmaceutical vials, mapping a future of stronger packaging options for pharmaceutical companies with U.S. manufacturing.

“The rise in biotech drug formulations has triggered an increasing demand for primary packaging with superior surfaces and high cosmetic quality”, said Christopher Cassidy VP Sales & Marketing, North America, SCHOTT Pharmaceutical Packaging. To cater this need, the international technology group will be expanding its SCHOTT Vials DC (Delamination Controlled) manufacturing capability in the beginning of the first quarter of 2018 in order to also supply customers from its Lebanon, PA facility.

Over the past few years, delamination has led to recalls of numerous injectable drugs. SCHOTT Vials DC significantly reduce the risk of glass delamination and brings it under control. SCHOTT developed an optimized and validated hot forming technology to prevent delamination. The hot forming technology creates a chemically homogeneous inner surface for the vial, improving its chemical stability. Each batch of vials undergoes a clear control strategy based on SCHOTT’s patented Quicktest, which uses a predefined quantitative limit value to verify that the delamination risk has been reduced and is under control.
Optimized manufacturing is also the key to preventing chips and cracks in the glass surface, and improving overall cosmetic quality. This not only facilitates automated machine inspection during filling operations, it also makes the vials less susceptible to breakage.

”Glass has a remarkably high internal strength”, said Cassidy. “Its weak points are small cracks on the surface or edges. Micro-defects caused during production or handling spread inward as mechanical stress increases. This can lead to fractures. As a matter of fact, an intact surface will already make a glass vial twice as resistant to breakage without any additional treatment.”

SCHOTT creates safer vials by optimizing the manufacturing process and introducing laboratory test procedures based on more than 130 years of experience in glass development and over 80 years of pharmaceutical packaging production.

“Having a reliable packaging partner that can support global sourcing strategies is becoming increasingly important for pharma manufacturers. The latest expansion of SCHOTT Vials DC underscores our commitment to U.S. production by addressing a real problem in the industry,” Cassidy said.

SCHOTT is a leading international technology group in the areas of specialty glass and glass-ceramics. The company has more than 130 years of outstanding development, materials and technology expertise and offers a broad portfolio of high-quality products and intelligent solutions. SCHOTT is an innovative enabler for many industries, including the home appliance, pharma, electronics, optics, life sciences, automotive and aviation industries. SCHOTT strives to play an important part of everyone’s life and is committed to innovation and sustainable success. The group maintains a global presence with production sites and sales offices in 34 countries. With its workforce of approximately 15,000 employees, sales of $2.21 billion were generated in fiscal year 2015/2016.

ElderCare Settles Laboratory Purchases

ElderCare Settles Laboratory Purchases

Auckland – February 1, 2002 – Listed healthcare provider ElderCare New Zealand (NZSE: ELD) today announced that it had settled its purchase of Medical Laboratory Wellington and its subsidiary Nelson Diagnostic Laboratories.

The purchase, which was settled last night as planned, sees ElderCare owning 100% of the shares of the two laboratories from February 1.

ElderCare Chief Executive, Alan Clarke, said the acquisition represented excellent value for ElderCare shareholders and fitted the company’s strategy of acquiring well-managed, efficient healthcare and medical service businesses.

“The community pathology market is worth approximately $180 million per annum and community laboratories form a core part of the primary healthcare delivery mechanism,” said Mr Clarke. “Medical Laboratory Wellington and Nelson Diagnostic Laboratories are both excellent medical practices and substantial businesses with great experience, reputations and professional medical staff.

Both will continue to serve their communities operating under their existing names and under the direction of Dr Clint Teague and their former partner pathologists. The transaction is a further significant step in our move to widen our base in the medical services area and it complements beautifully our existing, aged care and rehabilitation businesses.”

Medical Laboratory Wellington has been in operation since 1932, offering a full range of medical laboratory testing to the public, requesting doctors, hospital outpatients and private hospitals in Wellington, Paraparaumu and Porirua. It is an IANZ registered laboratory and a Telarc registered supplier to (ISO9002), servicing 400 General Practitioners, 94 medical centres and 30 private hospitals and nursing homes.

Nelson Diagnostic Laboratories serves 130 General Practitioners, 12 private hospitals and nursing homes in Nelson and Marlborough. Both facilities are full service community pathology laboratories, and the combined operation is one of the three largest in New Zealand, with revenues of over $16 million per year.

Medical Laboratory Wellington’s Chief Executive and Managing Partner, Dr Clint Teague, will continue to head the company and will be appointed to the Board of ElderCare in coming weeks.

ElderCare in mid 2000, initiated its expansion into the broader healthcare market with the acquisition of the national rehabilitation services provider, Ranworth HealthCare Ltd.

Company Background
ElderCare New Zealand Limited (NZSE: ELD) is a medical and healthcare provider. The company owns a substantial portfolio of nursing homes, assisted living and assessment and rehabilitation facilities throughout New Zealand. These offer an array of specialised services to cater for the medical and healthcare needs of a broad range of New Zealanders. The company has embarked on a programme that will see it expand its operations into other complementary businesses in the wider medical and healthcare sector.

Easter Coates House

1615 L plan lairds house beside cathedral in central Edinburgh. Once laird's house and now part of St Mary's Music School. rare example of a wealthy city burger's residence.

An early laird's house built in 1615 for John Byers and a rare survival of the suburban residence of a wealthy burger of this period. Byers purchased the land in 1610 and after this date held office as Baillie and Treasurer of Edinburgh. The initials of his first wife (Mary Barclay) are inscribed along with his own and a blank armorial shield on the datestone in the W elevation. The original 17th century core of the building is a survival of a type of suburban dwelling which would have characterised this area before the expansion Edinburgh's New Town.

The house is now set within the grounds of St. Mary's Cathedral and in use as offices and a residential dwelling (2008). There are several phases of additions to the original building. The house was `repaired' (Gifford) in 1813 probably by Robert Brown who was working as the architect on the nearby Walker Estate development. Brown's work probably included the initial addition to the N (at the same height as the original building). His work incorporated fragments of other buildings from Edinburgh Old Town. Under the patronage of Sir Walter Scott the cathedral adopted the building as the choir school in 1887. At this point Rowand Anderson possibly recast the Brown additions to the N and continued the theme of re-using fabric from the Old Town. This included the double window in the gable of the W elevation which is reputed to have come from the French Ambassadors Chapel, various inscribed lintels were also included in this phase of alteration. In 1904 Henderson was involved further recasting of previous work and it was at this point that the porch on the W elevation became crowstepped.

Sometimes known as Old Coates House

Memorial planned for Scotland’s only Catholic martyr

AN online campaign has been launched to mark the spot where St John Ogilvie was executed.

The saint was put to death at Glasgow Cross in 1615 after being arrested for preaching Catholicism at a time when it was outlawed.

An online campaign launched on his feast day last week.

The Knights of St Columba said they would take the project forward by raising funds for a marker for the saint.

Archbishop Philip Tartaglia of Glasgow used his homily at the St John Ogilvie feast day Mass in St Andrew’s Cathedral, a few hundreds yards away from Glasgow Cross, to call on Scotland to make more of its saints, and a campaign by a Scottish Catholic media group for a memorial has received huge support online.

The Archbishop said: “John Ogilvie was a Scot from Banffshire. He was a Jesuit priest. He died here in our city.

“He is an honorary Glaswegian. He belongs to Glasgow. And above all, his blood was shed for Christ here in Glasgow. I just wish we knew where he was buried, but we don’t.

“We know he was executed at Glasgow Cross. We have the national shrine at St Aloysius’, where we celebrated ecumenical vespers in honour of St John Ogilvie yesterday evening, and we have the renowned painting of our martyr which is displayed in this Cathedral.

“These tangible things help us to claim St John Ogilvie as our saint, to love him and to keep his memory alive.”

The Archbishop also said that the saint’s memory was particularly important at a time when Catholics faced ‘more subtle forms of restricting religious freedom.’

He added: “It gets into the realm of limiting your freedom to say in public places what you believe and what you hold most dear in your heart and in your conscience, and that trend, let’s call it, is recognisable even in developed liberal democracies like ours.

“Christians and Catholics all over the western world are wakening up to this now and it is a difficult prospect for us because the goalposts of civic respectability appear suddenly to have been moved. I think this may be our next big challenge.

“That’s one reason why we continue to need the example, inspiration and intercession of St John Ogilvie.”

John Patrick Mallon leads Sancta Familia Media, a group out of Holy Family parish in Motherwell Diocese which make Faith-based online videos.

He was inspired to call for a memorial when filming a short film about the saint at Glasgow Cross.

He said: “I was just really surprised there was nothing there to mark it, not even a plaque.

“And I thought, ‘this is terrible.’ So we put up a campaign on social media and it had an amazing response, hundreds of people liking and sharing it.”

Charlie McCluskey, supreme knight of the Knights of St Columba, said the order had first started to consider a permanent memorial to St John Ogilvie at Glasgow Cross on the saint’s 400th anniversary in 2015, but the time was now right.

He said: “He’s the only Scottish martyr and there’s not even a plaque. Whether you are Catholic, Protestant, whatever, this was an historic event in the history of the city that should be marked.”

Mr McCluskey suggested an alcove on the Mercat Building, which is owned by Glasgow City Council and overlooks the Cross, would be an ideal place for a statue of the saint.

“We have made tentative enquires to the council,” Mr McCluskey said. “There didn’t seem to be major objections. We need to move onto the next stage now, but if there’s public support we’d be happy to take a lead on this.”

Glasgow 2014: Eilidh Child wins Hampden warm-up

Share this article

AS DRESS rehearsals go Eilidh Child couldn’t have asked for much more from the Sainsbury’s Glasgow Grand Prix – but she admits she will need to find another gear when she returns to Hampden Park for the Commonwealth Games.

Child was getting a sneak peak of what she can expect in just over a fortnight’s time at the Commonwealth Games as she took to the Hampden Park track on Friday evening.

And she clearly liked what she saw as she not only won the 400m hurdles but did so with in a season’s best 54.39 seconds.

However, while the race featured a handful of her Commonwealth Games rivals, Jamaican and world number one Kaliese Spencer was not racing.

And while delighted with her race, Child is fully aware that she will need to turn it up another notch if she is to climb the Commonwealth Games podium on her Hampden Park return.

“I am delighted to have got that win but I think that has technically been my best race of the year,” said Child, who hopes to compete throughout the Summer Series – events proudly backed by long-term supporter Sainsbury’s.

“I just smashed my stride pattern and everything was smooth so I am just more delighted with how everything went.

“Obviously I am delighted to have won but I am more happy with how I executed the race.

“But none of the big names were there so I can’t rest on that race too much, there is still a lot that needs to be done.

“I am really confident that I will need to smash my PB to win but I have got to be happy with how things are going and if I keep running races like that then I cant be too disappointed with how it goes.

“I think when you have a bit more pressure on you it can make you raise your game and I like to think it does for me so hopefully come the Games it will help me raise my game again.”

Child could be excused for feeling the pressure ahead of the Commonwealth Games, considering she has been somewhat of a poster girl for the competition.

But after getting a taste of things to come she admits she can’t wait to get back out there in front of a fervent home crowd.

“I didn’t expect such a loud cheer at the start and the stadium wasn’t even full so to have that I just think it will be amazing in a couple of weeks at the Games,” she added. “And the track was really good and it felt really fast, and speaking to a couple of the other guys they said the same thing so it should make for a really exciting competition.”

Elsewhere for Scotland on Friday night, the 4x100m women came home seventh in 46.55 seconds while Allan Smith finished ninth in the high jump with a best clearance of 2.15m.

It was also a tough night for pole vaulter Jax Thoirs as while he cleared his opening height of 5.35m with his first effort that was as good as it got as he then failed 5.50m three times to finish joint fourth.

However the Scottish record holder is not about to throw in the towel on his Commonwealth Games medal hopes, adamant he is still in it to win it.

“5.35 is not too bad, I have not jumped as high as that in a little while so while it wasn’t a good day it was a particularly bad day either and it was just good to get out there and get a feel for it ahead of the Games,” Thoirs said.

“Hampden Park was pretty good. I had not been in the stadium since the track had been laid and it looks great.

“The crowd were absolutely brilliant and when they said I was the Scottish record holder they went crazy which was really fun so I am excited for the Games. I am from about 15 minutes down the road an di had lots of friends and family here for this and I should have loads more for the Games themselves so it will be good.

“The venue felt a lot different to the others I have competed in so I think it was good to experience that and to get a feel for it and I think it will benefit me for the Games.

“I know that it doesn’t seem like on this performance but I still think I can win, that is still the aim.

“I know if I jump well I can be in with a shout and while it will take a PB to win it I am sure I am confident I can do that.”

There is plenty for the home crowd to cheer for on the second and final day of the Sainsbury’s Grand Prix with Jayne Nisbet competing in the high jump before Eilish McColgan and Lennie Waite battle it out in the 3000m steeplechase.

And in the final race of the evening there is another Scottish tussle to excited supports as Laura Muir and Lynsey Sharp go head-to-head in the 800m.

Lord Thomas Cochrane RN, Scottish Hero

'Will you remember the famous men
Who had to fall to rise again
Pick yourself up...
Take a deep breath...
Dust yourself off
And start all over again.'
Jerome Kern 1936

When C.S. Forester published the first of his novels about the life and times of Horatio Hornblower in 1937, he virtually created a new genre. 'The Happy Return' ('Beat to Quarters' in the U.S.) was an instant success and was later made into a film starring Gregory Peck and James Robertson Justice (1951). Forester wrote eleven novels and five short stories about Horatio Hornblower R.N., charting his career from midshipman and lieutenant to Admiral of the Fleet and Lord. He was a successful writer quite apart from the Hornblower series and several of his stories have been made into films; 'The Gun', set in Spain at the time of the Peninsular war and starring an unlikely Frank Sinatra and Cary Grant, and a very likely Sophia Loren; 'The African Queen' with Humphrey Bogart and Katherine Hepburn; 'Brown on Resolution' and 'Payment Deferred'.

Forester's first brush with Hollywood was in the 'thirties when he went there to work on a pirate film under the name Arthur Hornbow. Unfortunately, before he finished the script another studio released 'Captain Blood', starring Errol Flynn, and using the same historical incidents he had counted on, so the film was abandoned. At the start of Word War Two Forester persuaded the British government to let him go to America to write propaganda (news, film, short stories and novels), to help with the war effort. For the rest of his working life he lived in Berkeley, California. He became partly crippled in 1943. Altogether he wrote thirty-five novels, two plays, five biographies, three children's books and some history. He died in 1966 at the age of 67.

There is no doubt that what he is best remembered for is the 'Hornblower' series. There are now several good authors writing naval stories set in the Napoleonic Wars; Alexander Kent, Dudley Pope and Patrick O'Brian, but Forester was the first, unless you include 'Mr Midshipman Easy' by Captain Marryat, written in 1836. Marryat served as a midshipman under Thomas Cochrane, of whom more later.

Forester gives Hornblower a subtle and complex character; self-doubting and yet outwardly decisive, humane and a loner, a believer in authority with a progressive outlook. In all the stories the historical references are accurate and the period naval detail is convincing. Towards the end of the 18th century and the start of the 19th, the time in which these stories are set, warships had become beautiful, incredibly complex and deadly floating castles. HMS Victory, Nelson's flagship at Trafalgar (commissioned in 1776, it is the oldest warship still in service, and is permanently docked at Portsmouth, Hampshire) was over 200 feet tall from the waterline to the top of the main-mast and mounted 104 guns on three decks. The top deck carried 12 pounders, the middle deck 24 pounders and the massive 32 pounders were mounted on the lower deck. A ship of the line like this would have needed a high degree of seamanship and skill from the officers and men and in particular the captain.

Unlike the real Horatio Nelson, the exploits of the fictitious Horatio Hornblower do not take place in the great set-piece sea battles of the time. Hornblower's success is usually due to his use of a clever ruse or unexpected stratagem. Forester has him sent off on lone missions and desperate adventures involving finesse and diplomacy as well as courage and seamanship, as he deals with island governors and presidents of small South American republics etc.

Great adventure stories, as long as you suspend your disbelief. The kind of devices used in these stories would never actually work. Being the captain of a warship, even in those romantic times would have been more prosaic than Forester makes it out to be. Anyway, that's what I thought until I came across the source of Forester's creation - the real Hornblower.

Thomas Cochrane, son of the 9th Earl of Dundonald, was born in Lanarkshire, Scotland. As a child he was fictitiously listed as serving in the Royal Navy ship commanded by his uncle, Sir Alexander Cochrane, but actually signed up in 1793 at the comparatively late age of eighteen to HMS Hind. He made rapid progress in the next seven years, in spite of being court-martialled for disrespect to a senior officer. His impulsive nature and candour would eventually lead him into real trouble with the establishment.

In 1800 he found himself in command of the sloop 'Speedy'. During his time with this vessel he accounted for more than fifty enemy ships in the Mediterranean. Napoleon called him "le Loup de Mer" (the Sea Wolf). In 1801, with his tiny 14 gun sloop he captured the 32 gun Spanish frigate 'El Gamo'.'El Gamo' had been sent by the Spanish to capture and destroy Cochrane and the 'Speedy'. A month earlier the Spanish frigate had very nearly achieved her objective when she lured 'Speedy' into hailing distance and suddenly opened her gun ports.

Since Cochrane's sloop was massively out-gunned he had to think fast to avoid disaster. He had the Danish flag hoisted, and strutted about wearing a Danish uniform and gabbling away in 'Danish'. When the Spanish sent an officer across in a boat he was informed that the 'Danish' ship had just come from the plague-ridden Barbary Coast of North Africa and if they wanted to stay healthy they had better keep their distance. And so the two ships parted company. About a month later 'Speedy' came across 'El Gamo' again, off the coast of Barcelona, and Cochrane decided to take her as a prize.

There was a 45 minute fire-fight in which 'Speedy' lost three men killed and five wounded. Cochrane then ran the two ships together and led a boarding party onto 'El Gamo'. This was the last thing the Spanish expected since 'El Gamo' carried a crew of 319 men, compared to 'Speedy's' 50. In the thick of the fighting Cochrane hailed his own ship and ordered another 50 men to be sent over. In fact he only had 3 men left on board but the Spanish were convinced that British re-inforcements were about to overwhelm them and soon surrendered. As a result of this action Cochrane was promoted to Post Captain.The story of Cochrane and HMS Speedy formed a large part of the plot of Patrick O'Brian's novel 'Master and Commander', which was recently made into a film starring Russell Crowe.

After leaving 'Speedy' Cochrane served in 'HMS Pallas' and later 'HMS Imperieuse', wracking up a fortune in prize money for himself and his crew. In 1809 he led the hazardous fire-ship attack on the French fleet in the Aix Roads near Rochefort. The mission was a success and most of the French ships were driven hard on the shore, but Cochrane felt he could have destroyed the fleet completely, and perhaps shortened the war if he had received proper backing from the British commander-in-chief Lord Gambier. Gambier was court-martialled as a result of Cochrane's criticism, but was acquitted.

For some years Cochrane had somehow found the time to manage a political career in tandem with his navy activities. He had long been a campaigner for liberal reform both in the Navy and in Parliament, but now things started to go wrong. The same qualities that made this 6'2" Scottish captain, with his shock of red hair and his outspoken opinions such an excellent commander proved to be something of a liability in the rarefied atmosphere of Westminster. Lord Gambier was now his enemy and Cochrane's criticism of the conduct of the war and his fight against corruption in the Navy made him some powerful establishment enemies.

These took their revenge when Cochrane was accused of taking part in a sensational stock exchange fraud, based on false rumours about the abdication of Napoleon Bonaparte. Nobody today believes that he had anything to do with the fraud; even at the time the general public, with whom he had always been popular, thought he was innocent, but in a travesty of a trial he was convicted and fined £1000. He was also sentenced to be pilloried for a few hours, jailed for a year and expelled from Parliament. Cochrane escaped from prison, was re-captured and fined a further £1000. Owing to a public outcry the government backed down, and he was given a Royal Pardon.

At this point you have to wonder just what it would take to defeat this fiery, rumbustious Scot. He seems to have had an inexhaustible supply of energy and self-belief. Still protesting his innocence and in official disgrace, Thomas Cochrane now took his child-bride, Kitty, (whom he married in 1812, 1818 and 1825) and left for South America, much to the relief of Westminster and the Admiralty. He was not running away; he had been invited to command the Chilean navy in its war of independence against Spain (1817-1822), and also help to found the navy of Peru. Later he took command of the Brazilian navy in its war of independence against Portugal. As if that wasn't enough he then spent three years in charge of the Greek navy in yet another war of independence, this time against the Ottoman Empire (1825 - 1828).

Finally he returned to England, some eleven years after leaving in disgrace, to find that with a different government and the passage of time, everything had changed. His achievements were now acknowledged; even by the Admiralty, who called him "The greatest man afloat". At this time he succeeded to his father's title as the 10th Earl of Dundonald. He was re-instated into the Royal Navy and was made an admiral.

At age 73 he commanded the Royal Navy's North American station and at age 79 applied for command of the British fleet during the Crimean War. He was turned down because of his age. He died at the age of 85 and is buried at Westminster Abbey. Two centuries later we can still see in Lord Thomas Cochrane a courageous, liberal-minded man with a unique and inventive mind, who never knew when he was beaten. In Scotland the country's greatest naval hero is almost forgotten, although the naval base at Rosyth in Fife is called HMS Cochran. Oh yes, and there is a plaque to his memory in Anstruther.

Episode 5 Classroom Under the Sea

bruceAndJessica2 Why Two Roane State Community College Educators Attempt World Record Stay Underwater for 72 Days…

I had the  pleasure recently to interview Bruce Cantrell & Jessica Fain from Roane State Community College.  They are part of an amazing and innovative project called Classroom Under the Sea. The two college professors have been diving together for years and have taken many groups down to the Jules’ Undersea Lodge in Key Largo, Florida but had no idea that they had been in training for this mission for all of those years.  They are both  aquanauts that have spent time living under the sea in the MarineLab Undersea Laboratory but nothing close to the 72 day stay they will be attempting from October 4 through December 15 of 2014. The goal of the project is not just to set a world record but to also bring more attention to the education of students about the importance of our oceans and to help understand how they can be involved in making a real difference to conserve one of our greatest resources on the planet. It all starts with education and opportunity.  Bruce and Jessica will be broadcasting classes from the undersea lab to students all over the world. Bruce will head up the college course that students can take for full college course credits.  Jessica will take the lead in bringing the project to classrooms all over the world via live , interactive  internet broadcasting which will allow students to interact with them via chat based Q&A sessions. How cool is that? They will be bringing the underwater world right into the classroom!  You can find out all about the project on their website here or by following them on Twitter  & .  Listen to the interview with them on the ScubaPath Podcast as they explain it all and talk about their journey that has brought them to this point in their lives and careers. They graciously share their advice if you are interested in following a similar path in life. Please share this amazing project with your local teachers so that they can participate in the program to educate your local youth! Other Media Coverage Below:

The Only Opinions That Matter Since 2006!

Google thinks we are a hacking site!?!

Dear subscribers (all 2 of you) -

Apparently running a website such as this one where there are more links to audio than text content and the names of the links are Vista Hacked or Destroy Your Data The Easy Way has put us into the hacking site category as far as Google is concerned. Now that doesn't really matter until you want to set up a Google AdWords account; at which point Google lets you deposit money into the account but does not actually let you advertise your site, since its web crawler algorithm has determined that your site is banned from advertising.

So we will be creating an entry page strictly for Google which will simply have a short description of the site and let visitors click on either a Subscribe or an Enter button.

This will be on a different site name and should not affect either this page feed or the page itself. But just in case you end up on that hackingless part of our site, feel free to click the Enter button or simply type into the address bar.

I don't really get this part. If the host pc you are running honeyd on
it is infected, how can you benefit from this with your honeyd? It's
okay to monitor your pc's traffic, and control the outgoing malicious
packets, but where honeyd comes in? The only thing i can think of, to
watch the malware trying to spread through the virtual hosts generated
by honeyd.

8 of the Best Prototyping Tools for Your Next Website

logo 8 of the Best Prototyping Tools for Your Next Websiteprototyping-tools 8 of the Best Prototyping Tools for Your Next Website

Prototyping is a broad term, since it involves communication and coordination with your organization, constructing visuals for clients and choosing between the right tools that are going to produce those visuals for whatever project you’re working on.

For example, wireframing would certainly be considered a form of prototyping, yet it’s generally not the only step you’re going to take in the prototyping process.

In fact, a wide range of steps is going to be taken, so developers often use multiple tools to get to a final product. On the other hand, you may opt for a a prototyping tool like Adobe Xd, which is more of an all-in-one solution. Regardless, it’s nice to have a little library of prototyping solutions. This way you can bookmark this page and come back to it whenever you feel like you could use an upgrade or a change in your organizational tools.

Keep reading to learn more about the best prototyping tools on the market. As you read, we recommend making a checklist of the features that are most important to you and your organization.

01. Adobe Xd

adobe-xd 8 of the Best Prototyping Tools for Your Next Website

The Adobe Xd (Experience Design) product is currently in its preview mode, but it’s already gaining some notoriety for serving as a one stop shop for developers who want the ultimate prototyping interface. This platform was formerly called Project Comet, so you may know it by that name. It covers both websites and mobile apps, and you can find everything you need for streamlining your design, creating interactive prototypes, previewing live builds and sharing with other people.

Standout Features:

  • Draw, reuse and remix elements in your wireframes and other visual designs.
  • Preview your designs with complete transitions.
  • The sharing includes production-ready artwork, so jumping to the next step is no problem.
  • The Repeat Grid feature allows for designing with real imagery and data, then duplicating horizontally or vertically.
  • You can connect with Illustrator and Photoshop for the ultimate integration.
  • Switch from designing to prototyping, all in one app.

02. Axure RP

Axure-RP 8 of the Best Prototyping Tools for Your Next Website

Axure RP handles planning, prototyping and accumulating useful feedback from the people in your organization. One of the more interesting tools in Axure RP is the area that lets stakeholders test drive what has been done with the prototype already. After that, these folks punch in comments and send them back to the developers for changes. The backend interface is fairly simple to learn, and you receive a fast and flexible diagramming solution for wireframes, flowcharts, mockups and more.

Standout Features:

  • Publish on the cloud or send a link to users who would like to take a look at the prototype.
  • Use conditional logic, dynamic content and animations without the need for code.
  • The documentation is integrated into Axure RP, so if you’d like to search for a solution or figure out what a feature does, you don’t have to leave the program.
  • Multiple users can work on the same project at the same time. What’s more is that a check-in/check-out system is available for users to pick up where others left off.
  • Both mobile and advanced prototyping are available.

03. Mockplus

mockplus 8 of the Best Prototyping Tools for Your Next Website

The whole point of Mockplus is to prototype a little faster and easier. The entire interactive design in Mockplus is completely visual, as it uses a WYSIWYG editor and a drag and drop editor for even the most basic of users. Thousands of pre-designed icons and components are there for you to play around with, so you can focus on the actual design instead of figuring out how to build a simple icon or go out to grab an image that looks like what you want.

Standout Features:

  • The Mockplus system has fast previewing, so you can bring up a test version on an actual device.
  • Carry and share your prototypes offline so bringing in feedback is much faster.
  • This is a code free prototyping environment, so focusing on the actual design is the main benefit.
  • Sketch and wireframe styles are offered.
  • 10 commonly used markup components are packaged into Mockplus.
  • An auto-recovery key comes along with the program for quickly jumping back to a design you had earlier.

04. Balsamiq

balsamiq 8 of the Best Prototyping Tools for Your Next Website

Balsamiq is a highly visual prototyping tool for rapid and effective building. The whole idea behind the tool is so that anyone can build great mockups. The wireframing modules come with thousands of UI elements, all of which are friendly to use and easy on the eyes. The mockups look like sketches on purpose, but you can change this around if you would like to present the visuals to people in your organization. What’s more is that the feedback tools are there for quickly receiving information about what needs to be changed.

Standout Features:

  • Easily print out your prototypes and run user tests for early modifications.
  • Use the revision history to jump back to a previous version.
  • Several third party extensions are available for things like exporting to HTML.
  • The collaboration tools are there for keeping everyone in your organization informed about what’s going on with the project.

05. Invision

invision 8 of the Best Prototyping Tools for Your Next Website

Invision has a free version for getting started and testing out whether or not this is a solid prototyping tool for you. It works for both web and mobile projects, and you have a chance to collaborate and view the entire workflow from start to finish. Upload your design elements and add transitions to make for a completely clickable interface within just a few minutes.

The standout area is the collaboration module, which lets you add team members and stakeholders, while also seeing new feedback in a simple drilldown menu at the top. All of the user information is stored in each of the feedback comments, so you know exactly who is in on the conversation.

Standout Features:

  • Project management is all done from one screen. Manage all of your project screens and statuses without having to jump around from screen to screen.
  • The platform has boards which are nice for storing, sharing and talking about your design ideas. The visual hierarchy feature is also nice for giving users an idea of what is happening with the design.
  • Give tours to stakeholders and use the real-time design collaboration to chat with other developers and see what changes have been made right at the same moment.
  • Automatically save your versions and jump back to other versions if you would like to. Syncing your files is done with the click of a button as well.

06. JustinMind

justinmind 8 of the Best Prototyping Tools for Your Next Website

JustinMind has a similar look and feel to Photoshop, but you can download a version for free to get the full taste of the prototyping platform.

Construct what your iOS and Android apps are going to look like, and utilize the web app module for the ultimate website prototyping tool. The tool even has support for responsive websites and wearable apps. JustinMind has support for both mockups and fully functional UI prototypes, so it’s a perfect solution from start to finish.

Standout Features:

  • JustinMind has a button for instantly turning a wireframe into a complete UI.
  • Define all of your wireframes and then share them with other people to receive meaningful feedback.
  • The wireframe design is completely code free. This means that you can drag and drop elements and forget about the whole development aspect until it’s really needed.
  • Over 500 mobile and web widgets are provided for speeding up the wireframing process.
  • Smart behaviors and rich interactions come in handy for when you’d like an animation or mobile gesture.
  • You have the ability to see a mockup or prototype on any device you choose.

07. Flinto

flinto 8 of the Best Prototyping Tools for Your Next Website

Flinto is a strong tool for prototyping mobile apps. It has a few versions, one of which provides a 30-day free trial.

The interface is fairly easy to play around with, since you can either get the web-based prototyping for a phone or the Mac-enabled system. Drag and drop elements are given to you for a clean process, while the animations and gestures are there for cleaning up the way you present your app to users.

Standout Features:

  • Send your prototype files by email, AirDrop, link or text.
  • Previewing can be done on multiple devices, so if you’d like to see an app on your computer or mobile phone, this is completely possible.
  • Scrolling is simple with Flinto, since it allows for tall screens and fixed headers.
  • Importing elements and design from other apps is entirely possible.

08. UXPin

uxpin 8 of the Best Prototyping Tools for Your Next Website

UXPin is all about designing prototypes and collaborating with your team all in one area. The main benefit of UXPin is that you can integrate with the files utilized in Sketch and Photoshop.

Therefore, none of the files are flat. You have the ability to manage layered design files, and the tool pretty much covers all of the prototyping steps. Hundreds of UI elements are packaged in for mobile and web-based building. Not to mention, the drag and drop interface is great for icons, and other web elements.

Standout Features:

  • Feel free to customize typography, UI elements and backgrounds.
  • With a few clicks you can turn your simple wireframe into a fully functional UI experience.
  • Dozens of advanced animations and interactions are given to paying users.
  • Real time collaboration is a huge part of UXPin, and you can also present to stakeholders in the same real time format.

Which Prototyping Tool is Right for You?

As we stated before, you will probably end up utilizing more than one of these prototyping tools. However, for a more feature rich package we would recommend going with something like JustinMind or Adobe Xd.

Invision is one of the more powerful options as well, considering it’s used by some large companies like Uber and Netflix. I like Flinto and Balsamiq for mobile mockups, but they aren’t as strong with the entire feature sets.

Regardless of what you pick, we encourage you to bookmark this page for future reference. Also, give us a shout in the comments section below if you can think of any other prototyping tools that you can’t live without.

ASHBURNHAM -- Voters at Annual Town Meeting on Tuesday will decide whether to take the first step toward approving a local tax override needed to fund the prioritized Ash-West school budget.

Under state law, voters must approve any local tax increase greater than 2.5 percent, which is the case this year as the town looks to appropriate funding for the regional school committee's fiscal 2018 Prioritized Budget.

Article 10 of the town meeting warrant sets the stage for that override.

It's one of 18 articles that will be put to voters at Annual Town Meeting, which begins at 7 p.m. Tuesday in the auditorium at Oakmont Regional High School.

The $29,989,424 Prioritized Budget is an 8.1 percent increase over last year's school system budget, and restores some of the services lost over two years of steady cuts.

The override would allow the town to generate an additional $629,733 in tax revenue to help cover the cost of the increase, said Selectman Chair Leo Janssens.

Article 10, if passed by voters on Tuesday, must get additional approval through a ballot question in late May or early June, said Janssens.

Janssens said he expects a good turnout at Town Meeting because of the passionate views held by residents on both sides of the override debate.

"You have a lot of parents that are concerned about the budget and then you have a lot of non-parent who don't want their taxes raised," Janssens said.

Ashburnham has not approved a tax override since 2005, Janssens said.

Among the remaining articles under consideration this Town Meeting, one would let the town spend $2,500 taken from the Water Improvement Fund on waterway maintenance and safety.

Another article would appropriate $422,278 for capital planning, including $62,028 for road repair to supplement money provided by the state.

That article would also allow selectmen to enter a $190,000 lease-to-buy agreement on a new fire truck pumper tanker, and let the town buy a $44,000 police cruiser and a $146,250 snow plow.
