HAMR: Obama’s Spy Op on Trump

Obama’s Spy Operation Against Trump
Our original blog on the HAMR appeared in January 2020 at the urging of Mary Fanning.
This blogpost is provided as an update with further details, and as background as Obama’s
henchmen seem to soon be the recipients of some of those Sealed Indictments.

Obama’s Surveillance Hammer on Trump is Worse Than Watergate
The American Report, By Mary Fanning and Alan Jones

The Hammer,” a secret government surveillance system, was allegedly used to spy on Trump, Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts and millions of other Americans during the Obama administration.

Comey, Clapper, Brennan:
Awaiting Sealed Indictments for Treason

On June 5, 2019, whistleblower and former CIA/NSA contractor Dennis Montgomery filed a federal lawsuit [Dennis Montgomery, et. al, v. James Comey,] against former President Barack Obama, former CIA Director John Brennan, former FBI director James Comey, former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, the NSA, the CIA and other former and current government officials.

The suit charges that the defendants failed to investigate Montgomery’s whistleblower reports of illegal surveillance on Donald Trump and millions of other Americans.

Former Director of National Intelligence:
John Negroponte

[Editorial Note:
The CIA’s assaults against Montgomery date back  to the early days of the DNI, when Director Negroponte invoked the the State Secrets Privilege [a government gag order] to “protect national security secrets“.

In 2006, to ensure Montgomery could never reveal the capabilities and usage of the HAMR, then-FBI Director Robert Mueller’s agents raided Montgomery’s home using illegally obtained Search Warrants.

The harassment continued through 2009 with manipulated Media which tried to paint Montgomery as a fraud.

As late as 2019, Kevin Shipp (self-proclaimed CIA whistle-blower, has attempted to discredit Montgomery as a fraud.  Shipp  described himself on Twitter as a counter-intelligence officer who engaged in unique, solo, unilateral, and perhaps unsanctioned [?] espionage operations; (given our background directing both CIA and DIA espionage operations, we gauge Shipp’s statements as pure BS).  Nonetheless, Shipp does publish some interesting, and at times, valuable information on Twitter. ]

Montgomery alleged that the US government wiretapped 17 Trump businesses including Trump Tower, Trump leasing programs, Donald Trump himself, and various Trump family members. All were wiretapped under the Obama administration.

There has been a wiretap on Trump for years, according to Montgomery.  Larry Klayman, Montgomery’s attorney, told reporters Fanning and Jones:
The proof of Donald Trump being wiretapped is in the documents that were handed over to the FBI

“No One is Above The Law”

Klayman is the founder of Judicial Watch and of Freedom Watch, which issued a press release about Montgomery’s complaint. Although the suit does not identify the surveillance system by name, audio recordings released in 2015 by US District Court Judge G. Murray Snow in Maricopa County, Arizona, identify a secret government surveillance system called “the Hammer,” allegedly used to spy on Trump, 159 judges including Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, and millions of other Americans.

Klayman reported that Montgomery indicated that the surveillance program also targeted late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, who was found dead [with a pillow covering his face] at an exclusive Texas hunting ranch in 2016. According to an audio recording of Tim Blixseth, whose ex-wife worked with Montgomery at Blxware LLC of Bellevue, Washington, “the Hammer” was used to wiretap Donald Trump “a zillion times.” “Everything they said they didn’t do, that Brennan said recently, mainly Clapper. It’s all bullshit, and I’ve got it right here” says Tim Blixseth on one of the audio recordings.

A leaked CIA Information Operations Center document published in March 2017 WikiLeaks “Vault 7” dump identifies a CIA hacking tool called HAMR. A computer expert who worked for the military and a major government agency involved in defense who reviewed the leaked CIA document believes that the “Hammer” and “HAMR” refer to the same surveillance system.

Under grants of immunity obtained with the help of United States District Court Judge Royce C. Lamberth, former head of the FISA Court, Klayman brought Montgomery to FBI Director James Comey. “We brought Montgomery forward to FBI Director James Comey, through his General Counsel James Baker” Klayman wrote at Newsmax.

On August 19, 2015, Montgomery produced 46 hard drives and
600 million pages of evidence documenting
illegal surveillance to the FBI.

The FBI took possession of Montgomery’s evidence, giving Montgomery a receipt for his production of the physical evidence. In Decembe 2015, Montgomery was debriefed for three hours at the FBI’s Washington DC Field Office, inside a secure room known as a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF), where he gave a videotaped deposition. Many of these events were detailed in a May 3, 2017 interview with Montgomery on Klayman’s new radio program “Special Prosecutor.” Montgomery named names, specifically John Brennan and James Clapper.

According to Klayman,“ “Montgomery laid out how persons like then-businessman Donald Trump were illegally spied upon by Clapper, Brennan, and the spy agencies of the Obama administration. He even claimed that these spy agencies had manipulated voting in Florida during the 2008 presidential election, illegal tampering that helped Obama win the White House.

Montgomery says that he never pled the Fifth in any interviews or depositions, answering every question asked of him by the FBI. Montgomery named names and alleges that James Clapper and John Brennan broke laws. His own family was placed at great risk, claims Montgomery. Montgomery says that they were looking for Article III information on 159 judges to use as leverage against those judges.

The CIA breached the FBI’s servers seven times over a six year period to find out what information the FBI had in their possession and to learn if there was an ongoing FBI criminal investigation into the CIA’s activities, according to Montgomery.  He told Representative Devin Nunez, [R-CA] that he had the proof of wiretapping on Trump Tower. Nunez did nothing, according to Montgomery.

Montgomery states that Trump was wiretapped for years because, he alleges, the CIA feared Trump. HAMR can “throw” browser exploits at iOS, Android, OSX and Linux hacking targets, according to the CIA Information Operations Center document.

HAMR sends specified plug-ins from a collection of iOS plugins called “Wild Turkey to targeted devices and installs (implants) them for surveillance operations.

Donald Trump may have used iPhones in the past, according to an analysis of his tweets published in Mother Jones. WikiLeaks has been criticized for focusing on the leaking of US intelligence community classified documents while not releasing similar large dumps of Russian and Chinese classified documents.

HAMR appears to be a massive super-computer system that was used to listen to phone calls not by tapping into telecommunication carrier switching stations and fiber optic cables, but rather by deploying or “throwing” malicious plug-ins at targeted computers and smartphones to collect the intercepts and then send the data back to the master supercomputer framework.

Other plug-ins could presumably hack into online banking, messenger, email and other apps and then transmit the collected data back to the HAMR data center.

According to several of the audio tapes, Montgomery rented, with $7,000 cash, a supercomputer at Lockheed Martin in Los Angeles to process and collate all the collected data, organized by phone numbers.

James Comey worked for Lockheed Martin as their general counsel and senior vice president during the approximate timeframe in which Montgomery claims to have used the Lockheed Martin supercomputer. (Montgomery has made no public assertion that Comey had knowledge of his use of Lockheed’s supercomputer.)

The audio recordings reveal that the the Hammer computer system was being operated out of a US government facility. Montgomery claims to have built the Hammer while working for CIA Director John Brennan and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper. He told Klayman that although he is under an immunity agreement, he felt compelled to speak out and reveal that while he worked for Brennan and Clapper, the two intelligence officials were running domestic surveillance programs under the Obama administration that illegally collected massive amounts of information, including bank accounts, chat sessions, and emails, on millions of Americans.

The collected data was being used as leverage against Americans.

Senator Rand Paul

Senator Rand Paul [R-KY]:

We cannot live in fear of our own intelligence community. So, yes, absolutely from top to bottom we need a reform, and we need to go in and say the American people need to have oversight of this because we can’t let them listen to legislators phone calls or the president’s phone calls and blackmail the president. Something has to change.”

Klayman has stated that the nation hangs in the balance. Montgomery has emphasized that, in spite of his own personal and medical challenges, he is committed to exposing what he claims is massive illegal surveillance of Americans, carried out under President Obama, Director Brennan and Director Clapper.

General Thomas McInerney, USAF (Ret.) called the situation revealed by Montgomery “worse than Watergate.” LTC Tony Shaffer, USAR (Ret.) on Fox Business also described surveillance against Trump as “worse than Watergate.” Likewise, USA Today published an opinion piece referring to President Obama’s surveillance scandal as “worse than Watergate” and also suggested that former Obama officials could face criminal prosecution [an accurate prediction given announcements by AG Barr].

NBA Changes ‘Occupied Palestine’ after Israeli Ministry’s Letter

Israel’s far-right sports and also civilization ministry has obtained a charge for its USA National Basketball Association’s selection to eliminate the explanation”occupied” out of the depiction of Palestine on its own site, regardless of how the term clarifies the globally accepted legal standing of these Nordic lands. SEO (קידום אתרים at Hebrew) may play a very crucial part with this particular.

The NBA’s internet website originally recorded”Occupied Palestine lands” and also at the time of writing had deleted that the phrase”inhabited” in the event of 2 Israeli ministers, certainly one of whom indicated that they certainly were in fact component of Israel.

The row across the addition of these languages at a pop-up menu given by way of a 3rd party within an internet survey of preferred players may be the most recent case of these spans Israeli ministers go to dispute the approved legal expression of Palestine’s standing.

At a correspondence into the NBA commissioner, ” the sports ministry, known as the ninth lands”a fanciful country”’ and mentioned that the record wasn’t based on US President the latest celebrity of Jerusalem as Israel’s funding.

“I view the addition of ‘Occupied Palestine’ from the set of states emerging in your own official internet site since legitimizing the branch of this Condition of Israel so when gross and obvious disturbance, compared to this state situation of this American government and also the declarations of both President Donald-trump, that simply realized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel,” composed by fighter. “we don’t create exactly precisely the united state’s listings for, also as soon as we know this your website was upgraded. We apologize for this supervision, also have adjusted it,”” SVP explained. Israel asserts the entire city because of its own funding.

A politician criticized for eliminating precisely the language.

She claimed: “Israel’s lands aren’t inhabited; hence everything has been false and needs to have now already been deleted”

Us security council along with also the global court of law esteem that the West Bank, Gaza along with also Western Golan Heights as land that’s inhabited by Israel under the law.

Israel’s deputy minister of international events had called about the NBA to do it.

“Last week,” US ambassador Friedman knew because of its cessation of using this definition of inhabited’ with relation to Judea and Samaria, along with also a critical sports club such as for example, for instance, the NBA really ought to honor this opinion,” stated deputy Union.

Israel’s deputy minister was speaking to your reported maintain from the Israeli press — aggressively contested from the united states state department — which US ambassador experienced predicted to its falling of this definition of”inhabited”.

The sports ministry isn’t a stranger to interposing herself disputes together with athletic associations whose perspectives don’t grapple her own personal. The final month that she threatened to yank service to its Giro d’Italia motorcycle race later painters clarified a segment of this road as heading right on right through”West Jerusalem”.

A credit union helping its community The Community & Teachers Federal Credit Union started out, as all credit unions do, with a few people (in this case, teachers) who decided to pool their funds together so that when one of the members needed to borrow money for a home, car, etc., they could borrow it from the “pool” at a reasonable rate of interest. Back then, banks were not interested in helping the “little guy,” and to borrow from money-lenders, people were charged an exorbitant rate of interest. By saving together and lending to one another, they cold afford to have their share of the “American Dream.” In the ’70s, there were credit union leagues in every state, a national credit union association, as well as a world association of credit unions. All federal credit unions continued to be run by a volunteer board of directors. The credit committee and supervisory committee are also volunteers.

An island staple for more than 80 years

Open every day in July & August

What started out as a simple operation out of renovated chicken coop has since transformed into a two-location, globally-attracting destination in Flo’s Clam Shack and Drive-In. Ever since the first Flo’s opened in Island Park in 1936 (making it one of the oldest clam shacks in the country), followed a few decades later by the Middletown clam shack in 1991, tourists and residents alike have flocked to its doors for their coveted fried clams and clam cakes. Since taking ownership of Flo’s in 1978, Komes Rozes has kept the original recipes virtually the same, emphasizing quality ingredients: everything is fresh and made-to-order, with a private supplier bringing in fresh quahogs daily. “We’re getting the best in the world from Narragansett Bay,” Mr. Rozes said. Open seasonally March through the end of October, Flo’s can see upwards of 6,000 customers a week at either location. Both operate as a no-frills type establishment; with no silver or glassware available and orders served on paper plates — it is “fine fast food,” as Mr. Rozes calls it. “It’s like, ‘get your order and have a nice day,’ ” he joked. In addition to the classic favorites, Flo’s has plenty of additional offerings, from seafood platters and ‘lobsta’ rolls, to homemade ‘chowda’ (“it’s creamy, not cement”) and — at their shack location — even a raw bar. As far as Mr. Rozes knows, nothing has

Flo’s Clam Shack 4 Wave Ave., Middletown Park Avenue, Island Beach Park, Portsmouth flosclamshacks.com ever been market-priced, something that the majority of other clam shacks do, yet their food has always been priced competitively. Over the years, Flo’s has received a variety of honors and recognition, from Best Fried Clams to mentions in the New York Times. Maintaining the success of Flo’s has not always been easy. Hurricane after hurricane has come sweeping in, knocking Flo’s off its feet on more than one occasion. Yet it never stays down for long, always finding a way to rebuild. Every season it is worth it, though, as the customers once again come rolling in —some Mr. Rozes has known for generations. “It’s a lot of work,” he said, “but it’s a lot of fun.”

Blount Boats — Living a legacy Stretching six acres along one of the last remaining working waterfronts, the Blount Boats shipyard has been a staple in the Warren community since 1949. To President Marcia Blount, it’s simply home. “We were born here, grew up here,” she said. “We have deep roots in this community.” Now in their 70th year in business, she and her siblings, Julie and Nancy, are taking a look back at their father, founder Luther Blount’s, legacy as they continue moving forward, full steam ahead. To date, Blount has constructed from-scratch more than 370 steel and aluminum commercial vessels — from crew boats and harbor tugs, to passenger ferries and oil skimmers — none larger than 220 feet. Some are of their own design — such as the recently-delivered “Isle of Fire” hull for Fire Island Ferries — while others are a collaborative effort with partnering naval architects, as is the case with their in-progress production of a harbor tug boat for the New York Power Authority. Though the projects are typically 12-month, one-and-done builds for the company, each and every one has a certain Blount touch to them that sets them apart from other vessels. Sometimes it may be the break in the ship’s bow; others, the roof lines along the pilot house. “If I go to a harbor, I can always pick out our boats,” Ms. Blount said. The major difference, however, is the quality and care that go into constructing each vessel. Once a Blount Boat makes its way into the water, it can last for decades. The Miss Liberty, delivered in 1954, is thought to be their oldest ship still running, continuing to this day to take passengers to the Statue of Liberty. One of Ms. Blount’s favorites, the Riveranda, is also still in service 35 years later, today now operated by Boston Harbor Cruises. That same energy and attention to detail are put into their more recent projects, like the 2016 “Atlantic Pioneer,” the country’s first flagged windfarm vessel — a kind of boat Ms. Blount hopes the company can build more of soon. “We have a really formidable reputa-

Blount Boats 461 Water St., Warren 401-245-8300 blountboats.com tion for quality and ingenuity that has customers coming back over and over again,” Ms. Blount said. Yet the atmosphere surrounding the family-run shipyard itself is fairly relaxed. Employees are known to stay for years, and before each vessel is even delivered, they gather for a ‘proper’ blessing and christening of the ship. “A boat does not hit the water until we’ve properly smashed the champagne bottle,” said Ms. Blount. Little nuances such as these that have helped differentiate Blount Boats from the rest of the industry over the years. Between she and Julie running the shipyard and Nancy handling sister company Blount Small Ship Adventures — an offering of unique cruise excursions that travel through barge

legacy, right here in their hometown. “We are very much part of the Warren community.”

‘Irish roots with a rock ’n roll attitude’

Exciting changes are on the way for Dublin Rose Irish Sports Pub

For six years, the Dublin Rose Irish Sports Pub has stood out among the row of chain restaurants lining either side of Rt. 6 in Seekonk. Designed by Food Network and HGTV-featured interior designer Taniya Nayak and located next to Clarion Inn, the independently-owned establishment was already unique with its open-late, banquet-quality kitchen dishing out traditional pub and Irish fare with flair. Yet managing partner Tyler Almeida could see that the Dublin Rose was capable of doing so much more. “Everything was sort of getting stale,” he admitted. “We’re working hard to implement fresh, new creative ideas.” Those changes have been coming in full force this summer, beginning with the launch of their new brunch menu and craft beer list, with specialty craft cocktails, $8.99 lunch specials and, yes, even a dog-friendly menu still yet to come. Many of the new additions are inspired from the time Mr. Almeida spent in California, where local craft beer ruled the food and beverage scene. “In San Diego, nobody drank anything other than local craft beers,” he said. He brought that concept back to New England, and — putting it in line with what customers back home were asking for — launched a new seasonal craft beer menu that featured numerous Massachusetts and Rhode Island brews, including Harpoon, Whalers, Wormtown, as well as crowd-pleasers Narragansett and Sam Adams. Still in the experimental stage are the barrel-aged specialty craft cocktails — house-made recipes in custom-charred barrels, soaked for a minimum of two weeks. “They are being aged as we speak,” Mr. Almeida said. Once he and his staff agree on their favorites, the drinks will be available to order, served in a double rocks glass with a giant ice cube. After launching their brunch menu last month, Mr. Almeida has already found their brunch cocktail offerings to be popular

The Dublin Rose recently launched a new brunch menu, and their Bloody Mary has been a hit.

All of it is intended to pair well with their new breakfast items — ranging from the sweet caramelized banana stuffed French toast, to the savory corned beef hash — and specialty lunch sandwiches, available next month. Drinks and meals can be enjoyed inside, with viewing access to any one of their 20 TVs on game days or live music performances on weekends; or outdoors, sitting at what is evolving into their new, dog-friendly patio. “We’re having a lot of new developments in the next few weeks,” Mr. Almeida said. Though Mr. Almeida is excited about all of these updates, he maintains that Dublin Rose will continue its dedication to honoring Irish cuisine. Irish Bennies are the first item listed on the

Fan-favorites like the buffalo chicken egg rolls are not going anywhere, and ingredients are still sourced as locally as possible, including produce from Quality Fruitland and bread from Scialo’s Quality

Bakery. Ultimately, though, what always draws customers back to the Dublin Rose every time, Mr. Almeida said, is the service they receive from his employees. “I can’t emphasize enough how great of a staff I have here,” he said. “Regulars come here just for them.”

A city of pride, a city on the rise The city of East Providence’s move to elect its first ever mayor has not only brought change to the way the city is run, but it has created additional opportunity for Mayor Bob DaSilva to work collaboratively with City Council members and residents to boost economic development and continue to attract people who want to live, work and raise their families in the city. DaSilva has a vision to bolster development of the waterfront district, breathe new life into the Taunton Avenue area and create an arts and entertainment district. Part of making that vision a reality is reminding entrepreneurs, developers and prospective business owners that the city of East Providence is not only business friendly – it offers a tax abatement program, low-interest loans, and streamlines the development process – it’s a city where current and future employees will want to work and live. The city’s waterfront district presents one of the most exciting growth opportunities in the region. The aged, industrial waterfront is transforming into a burgeoning mixed-use district with residential, business and open space opportunities. “It’s my goal to see the waterfront district flourish into one of the top-tier destinations in our state,” DaSilva said. “With successes like Bold Point Park and the new 90,000-square-foot University Orthopedics medical office and surgical center, our city is proving that it can compete with other Rhode Island cities as an entertainment venue and as a home to businesses large and small.” With development also come job opportunities. University Orthopedics has brought approximately 100 employees to the site, with plans to add more workers in the future. “In addition, the federal government will be investing $54.5 million in much needed improvements to the Henderson Bridge, which will create better access to Waterfront Drive and our waterfront district as a whole,” DaSilva said. “The transformation will allow residents of the state and the region to benefit from what will be a destination spot.” While there’s a lot of excitement sur-

Earlier this year, the city and East Providence School District broke ground on a new, $189 million state-of-the-art high school.

Mayor Bob DaSilva is excited about many things happening in East Providence, including an upcoming $54.5 million upgrade to the Henderson Bridge. rounding the waterfront district, DaSilva, working with the new Council, hopes to rejuvenate the underutilized areas of East Providence, including Taunton Avenue and Riverside Square. Both have the potential to become economic engines while also maintaining their historical importance to the city and state. An example of that is Ivy Place, which

is slated to include 14 condominiums and 2,000 square feet of retail space. The city is also taking proactive measures to ensure that the sale of its surplus properties will provide flexibility for developers, while also encouraging uses that will revitalize the area. As an example, an approximate 19,000-square-foot parcel on Bullocks Point Avenue in Riverside is for sale by

the city. The parcel is located in an overlay district that allows for mixeduse development. The overlay district will encourage economic and social vitality to Riverside, which has experienced a number of underutilized properties since the last recession. For example, it encourages a link to the East Bay Pike Path and allows the street frontage to be treated as a public space with streetscape enhancements to promote public transit and pedestrian travel. Riverside Square is already starting to see the benefits and will soon see new landscaping, art sculptures and welcoming signs, thanks to city funds and grant dollars secured by the city’s Community Development division. Development will continue throughout the city under DaSilva’s administration, as will an emphasis on education, recreation and the arts. Families in East Providence will benefit from the construction of a new $189 million state-of-the-art high school, which broke ground in June, plans to build a new recreation center, and a focus to expand the arts in the community. “A city is not only defined by its economic success,” DaSilva said. “I believe a city should offer people a great place to get an education, to live and to play.”

Did you know that the yoga word we translate as “meditate” doesn't actually mean being mindful? In fact, the yoga word samyama means “wholehearted”—live from your heart not from your head. Instead of ‘sitting down to meditate’, you are better off being “wholehearted” during all of your life activities. Now, how does one become “wholehearted”, you might ask? Well, think of your heart just like a garden hose. If a hose becomes kinked because of carelessness, water does not flow through it. Over time, a kinked hose becomes so brittle from strain, that it breaks. Your heart is the same. If you don't care for it, or if you stress it and strain it too often, it too will kink and break.

Barrington Fitness, putting the client first “I cannot overstate the benefits of proper exercise,” says Michael Correira, owner of Barrington Fitness. After 40, the body loses approximately 10 percent of its muscle mass every 10 years, which slows down the metabolism, leading to an increase of fat in the body’s overall composition. This, Correira says, is “a recipe for disaster when it comes to mobility and sustainability in independent living.” To combat this, Barrington Fitness uses resistance training as the foundation of their exercise program, especially when helping adults escape this spiral. Trainers at Barrington Fitness focus on the strength and balance of their older clients, so they can remain independent for as long as possible. As Correira puts it, “One of the biggest fears senior citizens have is to wind up in a nursing home.” Barrington Fitness clients are anywhere from 15 to 90-plus years old. In many cases, those in their eighties or nineties have been training on their personalized plan for 10 years or more and are in outstanding physical condi-

Barrington Fitness 232 Waseca Ave., Barrington 401-245-4250 barringtonfitness.com tion. Correira says there is always the possibility “of turning back the biological clock. Barrington Fitness is passionate about giving seniors the opportunity to not only “live long, but be in the proper condition to enjoy it.” To get active, lower your risk of virtually every disease, and prevent muscle loss, Correira recommends as little as 30 minutes per week of proper resistance training with a personal trainer. The expert personal trainers at Barrington Fitness craft a personalized training plan alongside certified nutritionists, doctors and clients from both diet and activity perspectives. In the gym, trainers do their best to make the client feel comfortable, often making sure they will have the gym to themselves to put self-conscious clients at

ease and prevent the intimidation one may feel in a typical gym. When joining, he said, the client’s condition will be comprehensively

evaluated to ensure the best experience possible. “You really matter,” he said. “Your goals really matter.”

Experience, skill and expertise light up Chris Electric When asked what makes Chris Electric stand out among similar businesses in the area, managing partner Don Cordeiro attributes their success to the connection the crew has with their customers. He says when a customer calls, they â€œare talking to one of the owners,â€? not a manager that has no ties to the company besides their position. This personal relationship is in part responsible for the â€œsterling reputationâ€? the company has developed over the years. Today, the firm is run by Don Cordeiro and Chris Healy, who both have more than 15 years of experience in the business. Rhode Island native Christopher Kalil founded Chris Electric in 1982 but has recently retired. He leaves the business to his partners, Cordeiro and Healy, who are both master electricians, the most senior level in their profession. Mr. Cordeiro says the owners regularly go out into the field, being â€œhandson all the way around,â€? servicing mostly residential and small commercial properties. Chris Electric does every-

thing from installing Google Nest in vacation homes, to servicing, maintaining and doing warranty repairs on Generac generators. Christ Electric is an authorized service dealer of Generac generators, the â€œnumber one distributor of generators in the nation,â€? according to Mr. Cordeiro. The green-certified Chris Electric crew is staffed with Generac technicians, along with eight journeymen electricians and four master electricians, including the owners. In the 37 years since the founding of the Newport-based company, they have amassed a customer base reaching into the thousands throughout the East Bay and Aquidneck Island communities. â€œWe have a lot of returning customers,â€? says Mr. Cordeiro, largely because â€œwe take pride in the things we do.â€?

Redwood Nursery can plan and plant your dream garden It’s very fitting that words of advice for gardeners should come from the folks at Redwood Nursery and Garden Center in Swansea. Founder Manuel Vales has a long history of gardening, since the early ’60s, when he was groundskeeper for Blithewold. The late Blithewold owner, Marjorie Lyon, made Manuel a bequest so he could start his own business, and he did. He named the nursery Redwood, after a seedling he planted from the giant sequoia still growing on the Blithewold grounds. Today, a dedicated knowledgeable team that includes Manuel’s wife, Jacqueline Vales, and their children, are kept very busy with the full-service garden center operation and planting division run by manager and part-owner Jacqueline, assistant manager John Whitney, assistant manager and head landscape designer Jarred Lynch, along with key Redwood team members Norma McNally, John Conlley, Ben Holtzman, Tracey Berube, Lory Cummings, Mark Bergeron, Gail Brodeur, Lynn McCoombs, Penny Lachmann, Kate Ferguson and Kristen Kearney, who all love to assist clients with design, plant selection and planting, and love to share their extensive plant and landscape expertise. Redwood Landscaping and Property Maintenance, run by Lisa Vales, Moses Camara, Joe Campos and Joe Martin, can handle any job big or small. And Manuel still keeps a watchful eye on all things. Redwood Nursery, over the more than 40 years it has been in business, has grown from a small plot of land to more than two acres of exhibit space for landscape size trees, shrubs, perennials, annuals and bulbs. It’s a beautiful sight to behold for those driving by on Rt. 6. People call it a hidden gardening sanctuary — definitely worth a stop — and it is stocked and replenished year-round with a diverse array of products. “If we don’t have it, we’ll find it for a customer,” says Jacqueline of the staff’s customer service attitude and its full range of plants, shrubs, trees and perennials. “Customers always think spring and fall are the best times to plant, but with today’s cultural nursery practices, the way these plants are grown and prepared, summer is actu-

Redwood Nursery & Garden Center, Inc. 2664 Grand Army Highway, Swansea, MA 508-379-0081 www.redwoodnursery.com ally a great time to plant,” she says, and Redwood’s team is happy to do it for you or advise you on how to do it. The nursery carries a comprehensive lineup of organic products, including loam, compost and fertilizer, as well as mulches, sod and a unique collection of garden art. They also are distributors of Nantucket Sheds and Creative Playthings swing sets, and they stock a deep array of materials and plants to bring vibrant summer colors to your homes and gardens. The Redwood crew has developed a fine reputation in helping customers make the best choices for particular sites. The Redwood team works with customers to plan perennial gardens, solve shrub and tree problems and ensure your landscape will grow for years to come. Their design expertise is a real strength — something they take a lot of pride in. “We’re really big on coaching customers, not just selling them materials,” says Jacqueline. Their design expertise is a strength. Former chemistry teacher Norma McNally likes to research unusual plants for customers and has developed a unique list of plants for late fall and winter interest. “We like to make even the novice gardener successful,” says Norma of the Redwood customer philosophy. That customer-centric attitude extends to all aspects of the business, including its hours. They’re open seven days a week, so anytime someone wants to tackle a landscape project, Redwood is there to help. Planning it, planting it, and maintaining it, Redwood Nursery & Garden Center on Route 6 in Swansea is the place to begin.

Redwood is open seven days a week, and they love helping customers both design and create beautiful landscapes.

The nursery is larger than most customers expect, with a large selection of trees, shrubs, flowers and many landscape products available year-round.

Safe, enriching programs for children at the YMCA The Newman and Bayside branches of the YMCA of Greater Providence offer before and after school programming through the Out of School Time (OST) program for children in kindergarten through middle school as well as summer camp. OST Programs are held at their branches, as well as at convenient school-based locations in East Providence and Barrington.

The YMCA is a charitable organization which provides scholarships for families in need. The Y will also accept income-eligible state vouchers from both Massachusetts and Rhode Island. More than 80 percent of the children and families they serve will receive some sort of financial assistance or qualify for income-based rates.

They utilize a rigorous screening and orientation process, and all staff members are trained in the recognition and prevention of child abuse. Every YMCA employee

must adhere to an established code of conduct. The OST curriculum focuses on impacting the academic, emotional, and physical development of each child. The OST staff emphasizes the importance of a healthy spirit, mind and body. At the Y’s unique program, the well-being of each student is woven into the daily curriculum. Children learn the benefits of good nutrition and healthy food choices while enjoy-

ing nourishing snacks. They learn stress management and techniques through engaging, fun activities and participate in games to keep them physically active. Children explore and develop creativity and self-expression through drama, dance and mixed art activities. Y camps offer values-oriented, camper-centered programs that help children discover their talents and feel a sense of belonging. The activities combine friendships, adventure, and personal growth, creating days as unique as each camper and memories that last a lifetime.

Hints of a hero’s return in Dark Days: The Forge #1

DC Comics launched it latest nothing-will-ever-be-the-same epic this week with the release of Dark Days: The Forge #1, itself a prelude to Dark Nights: Metal, and there were surprises and Easter eggs a-plenty. Of course, around here we’re mainly concerned with one big egg in particular.

Spoilers ahoy!

Like most preludes, this issue spends most of its time setting the scene and putting its characters into place. And like most DC comics, Batman is at the center of it. There is a mystery surrounding the enigmatic Nth metal, an ore primarily associated with Hawkman and which has gained a variety of properties over the years. Lately, it’s also been tied to Lazarus Pits, the Court of Owls, and a handful of other life-extending MacGuffins, and Batman is determined to get to the bottom of things. (As usual, a secret Batman investigation quickly becomes an extinction-level event.)

In the course of his inquiry, Batman travels around the globe and crosses paths with fellow heroes, including Mr. Terrific, who’s waiting right in the Batcave. Terrific has been secretly gathering data for Bats on Earth 2. Batman realizes things are escalating and says, “It’s time to let him out of the box.”

Then we see this:

What?! That’s where Plastic Man has been all this time, imprisoned in a direct reference to The Dark Knight Strikes Again deep in the Batcave?! Obviously, I have questions:

First of all, why has Batman taken it upon himself to lock up Plastic Man? He mentions that “we all agreed he was too unstable,” but what does that mean? Is Plas supposed to be psychologically unstable? (Please, for the love of Cole, no.) Or is he physically unstable? That could make sense, and might set up an interesting storyline in the future.

Secondly, and maybe more importantly, does the “we” in “we all agreed” include Plastic Man himself? For the sake of the character, and this supposedly lighter and “fun” reimagining of the DCU,  I certainly hope so.

At least Mr. Terrific looks happy about freeing Plas! I’ll take that as a good sign.

The rest of the story feels like fairly standard scene-setting, with solid writing from Scott Snyder and James Tynion IV. One quibble I have is Batman’s characterization, which seems a little schizophrenic: At some points in the story, he treats his fellow heroes with respect, and both thanks some for their help and apologizes for not being able to be more open about what he’s doing. But at other points he seems to be back to his dismissive and arrogant self, which frankly is way beyond its past-due date. As you might expect which three different artists, the tone is a bit all over the place, with Andy Kubert seeming to be the best fit for the story. (Personally, I’m not a fan of John Romita, Jr.’s work, and his pages tended to take me right out of the story.) All of these guys are experienced pros, so your own personal preferences may vary.

I’ll admit that I haven’t been keeping up with monthly issues for a while now. But I’ve been intrigued by the assurances from DC that its comics will be getting back to their roots, and hey, there’s even plenty of precedent for a Plas/Batman team-up. I’m in.

Needless to say, I’m beyond excited to see Plastic Man’s return to the DCU! The only way DC could make it better is if they bring back Woozy Winks, too. In the meantime, I can’t wait to see what they do with Plas once they crack him out of that giant Silly Putty egg.

  • Dark Days: The Forge #1
  • Writers: Scott Snyder, James Tynion IV
  • Pencillers: Jim Lee, Andy Kubert, John Romita, Jr.
  • Inkers: Scott Williams, Klaus Janson, Danny Miki
  • Colorist: Alex Sinclair (with Jeremiah Skipper)

Sugarbush Location Map

United StatesのDavid Rossが記述:

There are several areas throughout the northeast with more artificial snow, more restaurants and more places to shop, but none are as beautiful as Sugarbush and it's neighbor, Mad River Glen. While plenty of trails have snow-making, it's the abundance of natural snow trails and skiable woods that distinguish Sugarbush from the rest. The conditions on natural snow trails are more variable, of course, but they haven't been widened, bulldozed and spoiled with equipment. It's a tradeoff that's particularly evident when you ski at Sugarbush. The local towns of Warren and Waitsfield offer a similar contrast with other resort areas. There's no big walkable concentration of shops and restaurants here, but there's no traffic or even a single traffic light either. The Mad River Valley is quintessential Vermont with all its natural splendor and quirks.

It’s that time of year

Well, Thanksgiving came and went with only my stomach aching along the way. Christmas will be along in no time and it may be a little slim this year, presents wise, but that is fine. As long as I have my family and friends I am good to go. Not much else is happening. Work is work and keeping me busy as usual which is good. We have our tree up with not much of any thanks to me as I had to work the day after Thanksgiving. My wife and the in-laws went and picked up a tree. I was fine with that as I am not that much into trees when it comes to this time of year.

“I Shall Live”

Culture, Movies

Like so many of their films, Coen Brothers obscure but lovely new period piece, The Hobbit 2: The Desolation of Smaug, is both a shaggy dog story and an exercise in inertia, or more properly, a lack thereof. Smaug (Benedict Cumberbatch), a renowned figure of indeterminate but impressive background, lives alone, cloistered with a fortune of equally uncertain vintage, uninterested and otherwise withdrawn from the world outside. The “desolation” of the title is a fair portrait of his state of mind; like so many Coen protagonists, he is at once self-involved and depressed—his pomposity cohabits with anomie, and more than anything, he is suffused with an air of melancholy depression.

Indie filmmakers of a more ordinary Sundance-circuit variety might take this as the template for a quirky tale of mild uplift; surely a girl would be introduced, an indiepop score sounded; a homecoming home-come. The Coens, though, have darker interests. As was the case in A Serious Man, where they mischievously combined their own Midwestern Jewish upbringing with a pastiche-retelling of the Book of Job, here too their subject is Jewishness—in this case, they have chosen for their setting England in the mid-Nineteenth Century; indeed, there are startling echoes of Daniel Deronda throughout.

Like Deronda, Smaug is of some vaguely aristocratic extraction, perhaps having been fostered by another wealthy nobleman. His parentage is unclear. In an interesting twist on Eliot’s tale, Smaug’s love interest is not a beautiful young woman, but rather a midget homosexual circus performer, played with charm by an almost unrecognizable Martin Freeman. The two find themselves frequently harried by a phantasmagorical collection of Jewish gargoyles—Zionists with an eye on recapturing a homeland that may or may not have ever existed. The English, meanwhile, are equally grotesque, portrayed as a group of impossibly lovely but thoroughly effete, decadent, and largely closeted inverted racists. What other directors in the relative American mainstream would risk such stylistic outrageousness in this age of $200 million corporate sequels?

Again, as in A Serious Man, the Coens have created an ambiguous ending; and as was the case in Deronda, there is a hint that Smaug intends to “go east” as he departs the comfort of his longtime home. After True Grit, their appealing but relatively insubstantial 2010 Western, The Hobbit 2: The Desolation of Smaug represents a real return to form.

Jake's Journey with Apraxia

And the Friends We Met Along the Way

Kelly Dorfman presented one of my favorite all-time apraxia analogies in the book “What’s Eating Your Child?” She correlates that learning how to speak is a lot like learning a fancy dance routine. Some people are naturals … from day one, the moves come easy and they require minimal practice. But for others, the twists, turns, and dips are far from second nature and they have to do the routine over and over again before they finally get the motor movements right.

But, eventually, guess what? I think we all know how this story ends. Once a person’s feet finally learn the routine, they are able to pull off the dance beautifully. Yes, some are still “better” than others, but all have their own version of best.

When I read this analogy two years ago, it made me view apraxia differently. This simple comparison changed how I reacted to the sometimes daily face plants of speech errors/regression and even how I coped with the victories. The stumbles and falls didn’t seem so overwhelming because my focus was on the end result. The progressions that sometimes seemed to take forever, eventually came – step by step – through repetition and practice.

I leave you today with two challenges:

1.) Watch the video of Amy Purdy’s 2014 final performance on Dancing With The Stars and then read this article. Why do you think this winter Olympics medalist who lost her legs was able to evoke such deep emotion in people? What made her so special? Why do you think there wasn’t a dry eye in the room that night?

2.) Grab a partner – whether it be a husband, boyfriend, friend, child, or pet – and challenge yourself to learning an improvised (or advanced!) version of the dance in Ed Sheeran’s video of “Thinking Out Loud.” Love. This. Song. If you have a man in your life, he’ll probably be zeroing in on the girl dancing around in a negligee dress, but ignore him. Stay focused. Are you a natural? Do you think there would be a possibility you could pull off this routine if you practiced every day? Did you get frustrated? Do you laugh at your mistakes? Isn’t it really hard to keep up?!?

Happy Valentine’s Day! May your weekend be filled with faith, hope, and love.

    I’m accepting the challenges. 🙂 And I can’t believe I haven’t read that book!! I need to go get a copy of it. I’ve heard it mentioned several times and for some reason never got it. Adding it to my list of books to read. Happy Valentine’s Day!

Stop this genetic pornography

Lewis Wolpert:

“But what I find incomprehensible, even bizarre, is how it is even possible to consider patenting a gene. It has nothing to do with patenting life as a genetically engineered bacteria for breaking down crude oil has been patented. But a gene is not an invention as laid down in the requirements.”
