A homeless man has said he purposefully set up his camp in the middle of a busy roundabout to get the attention of the authorities and make clear the issue of homelessness to people passing by.

Gavin Wilson - known as 'Wilo' - set up his red tent in the middle of Aquarium Top roundabout in Scarborough two weeks ago and has attracted huge attention.

Videos and pictures of Wilo's tent have been shared online and have attracted the attention of thousands, with people expressing sympathy and urging help to be offered to him.

YorkshireLive was able to catch Wilo on Saturday as he returned to his tent and spoke to him in the middle of the roundabout - which connects Valley Road, Ramshill Road and Vernon Road and is decorated with dinosaurs and palm trees.

The tent has been in place on Aquarium Top roundabout for two weeks

Wilo said he has been homeless in Scarborough since December 12 last year and has spent all but two weeks since then living on the streets.

He said he had been moved on countless times from different areas of the town and that his regular requests for support from the council had fallen on deaf ears.

He said: "The way I see it is we wouldn't treat a dog like this - leaving it without food, shelter or water. Why is it okay to leave a homeless person like this?"

Originally from York, Wilo, 34, said he had lived in Scarborough for the past 17 years. He said that before he was living on the streets he was in sheltered accommodation but that the owner had kicked him out due to an assault that he said he wasn't involved and because he was told he had "too much stuff".

Speaking amongst a range of items including a Christmas tree, he said he regularly picks up and collects whatever he thinks might make his location more homely.

He said: "If I see something I pick it up."

He said the council "have point blank refused to house me" over the past year and that as a response he wanted to set up in a public space where his struggle could be seen.

Wilo said: "My last words to the council when they said they wouldn't help me were 'I will be seen'.

"I've asked to be housed but they aren't prepared to do it. They do nothing for me. Not a thing."

On his latest choice of location he said: "I've been moved from pillar to post. They kept saying I was in the way of the public so I came here.

"I couldn't be more out of the way if I tried here and it also let's people know what's going on. There's no reason to step on here is there? It's a good, sound spot."

Wilo was aware of the attention that the pictures and videos of him were getting online, to which he said: "You get the odd one saying 'what a bum' but you're bound to get some people who say that.

"I was shown one video of a guy driving past shouting 'Christ, he's got a Christmas tree' which has had 50,000 views. It's mad."

He said he had previously been staying by the paths in the town and had spent a number of weeks living under the shelter of Scarborough Spa and that another reason to get out of the way from the public was to avoid assaults.

"I moved from beneath a shelter under a bridge because I got bottled. I thought 'I will go to the most visible place I can find'."

Wilo said he hadn't been too phased by the coronavirus pandemic and that it's more the winter months that he worries about.

He said: "I will be alright. It won't fuss me too much but it ain't going to be good."

Asked how he ended without a home he said: "It's just one of those things. I just did."

Wilo seemed remarkably upbeat and open during our conversation. When pointing this out he said: "You've got to be happy. If you are not happy you cry and I've done all of that."

THE Waterfront regeneration scheme has been hit by funding delays in the wake of cost-cutting measures introduced by the Government.

Yorkshire Forward, the regional development agency which is set to be abolished, says it will defer funding of around £1.3m for the Waterfront Quarter which will help reinvigorated the site at Chapel Hill.

Plans to relocate Kirklees College campus to the sprawling site are unaffected as separate funding for that move has been secured. Groundwork is already underway.

What is at risk is the wider project, the biggest private-public sector development likely to be seen in Huddersfield for years.

Council leader Clr Mehboob Khan fears delay could mean a funding cut but has vowed the project will go ahead.

It is surely vital that the town is committed to efforts to bring further investment to Kirklees in order to support jobs and safeguard all our futures.

A Colne Valley High School pupil was selected to represent Yorkshire in a gruelling nationwide cycling contest.

Fourteen-year-old, Emelia Clarke was cherry-picked for the spot at the Sainsbury’s School Games at Hadley Farm in Essex only six months after getting into the saddle.

It is the latest boon for the Golcar resident, who recently came third in the final race of the Yorkshire regional mountain bike series.

Her PE teacher, Claire Bolton, noticed her potential when she came along to one of the Pennine Sports Partnership Cycle Coaching sessions at the school.

She said: “I noticed that ‘unfortunately’ she was the only girl, in a group with about eight other lads.

“She impressed me from start to finish but definitely at the finish when in the final race she beat most of the boys.

“She is a girl who is not only talented but gutsy too.”

She was impressed when, on his suggestion, she began training with the Holmfirth Cycling Club.

Since then she has won races in the West Yorkshire School Games for her school and at the weekend competed against the top 40 riders from her age group from across the UK at the Hadley Olympic mountain bike track.

Dad Andrew said: “She was up against some strong riders from England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, but unfortunately suffered several punctures during her races. It was a great for building up her experience at this level.”

OUTLANE made a winning start to the Fosters Halifax Cricket League campaign.

At home to Queensbury they produced a four wicket win to start their push for glory in the Roy Smith Division One.

Queensbury were restricted to just 109 as Neil Crosland claimed 4-24, Alex Blagborough 3-28 and Anwar Shokat 3-55.

The reply saw Outlane lose six wickets but an unbeaten 35 from Paul Loraine secured victory.

In the Premier Division Blackley also enjoyed a strong start away from home as they made 220 and then bowled out home side Booth for 101.

ANTHONY PILKINGTON has Yeovil in his sights – for the fourth time this season.

Town’s new signing is desperate for a debut when Lee Clark’s side tackle the Glovers at Huish Park tonight (7.45).

At 265 miles, it’s Town’s furthest trip on the League I schedule, but it’s familiar territory for the 20-year-old, who can play in midfield or up front.

He’s been there twice in the last 10 weeks with Stockport, helping County draw 1-1 in the first round of the FA Cup and win 4-2 in the league.

And Pilkington scored one of his six goals so far this season when Stockport hammered Russell Slade’s side 5-0 in the cup replay.

Now his club is different, but the target exactly the same as Pilkington – who comes into contention along with fellow new arrivals Lionel Ainsworth, the winger signed from Watford, and German left-back Dominik Werling – hopes for the chance to help 10th-placed Town bounce back from Saturday’s 4-2 setback at leaders Leicester.

The trio watched from the stand at the Walkers Stadium, where the misery of Town’s defeat was compounded by a red card for flying winger Gary Roberts, who must now serve a three-match ban.

His absence means manager Lee Clark must make at least one change against 18th-placed Yeovil after fielding the same starting XI for five straight games.

Lancastrian Pilkington, who trained with his new teammates on Sunday and headed down to Somerset with the rest of the squad yesterday, said: “I’m desperate to feature.

“The timing of the move meant I couldn’t be considered against Leicester, which was a blow, but all the paperwork has been completed now and I can’t wait to get going and show what I can do.

“I loved what the manager had to say about joining in the journey to the Premiership and everything here is geared for long-term success.

“I’m ready to give everything in order to be a success, and hopefully I can offer some creativity, a bit of skill and a few goals.

“Signing Lionel Ainsworth is also a real plus, because he’s a fantastic player, and hopefully we can combine to bring that bit more to the team’s attacking play.”

THE prestigious Holliday Cup final is on the move.

Huddersfield amateur rugby league’s showpiece event will this year take place at the YMCA’s Laund Hill ground between Slaithwaite Saracens and Emley Moor on Easter Monday (April 1).

The move ends a 10-year Holliday Cup final stay at Huddersfield Rugby Union Club’s Lockwood Park.

But with the YMCA rugby union club having voiced a strong desire to stage the final for a number of years, Huddersfield Amateur Rugby League Association officials have decided the time is right to make the switch.

The Laund Hill complex has a long association with the 13-a-side code, with Huddersfield Giants staging their ‘home’ Under 19s fixtures at the venue and the club’s Super League squad often using the facility for training sessions. The YMCA also fielded rugby league teams until recently.

And these factors all counted in the YMCA’s favour when the decision was taken over the future venue for the Vivimed-backed Holliday Cup final.

“Everyone has thoroughly enjoyed their time at Lockwood Park. It’s a fantastic venue, and we’ve had a great relationship with the club’s officials over the years,” said Huddersfield ARLA secretary Sue Taylor.

“But we feel the time is right for the YMCA to have a turn.

“A decade ago, when Huddersfield Rugby Union Club was moving from their old Waterloo ground to Lockwood Park, we had to stage our final at Laund Hill, and it proved a tremendous success.

“Ever since, the YMCA have been keen to host the event again, so we know they’ll put on a great day for us.”

Did Lawrence Schiller Write the QUICK Article?
Fred Litwin - Author of On the Trail of Delusion - Jim Garrison--The Great Accuser Fred Litwin - Author of On the Trail of Delusion - Jim Garrison--The Great Accuser
For Immediate Release:
Dateline: Ottawa, Ontario
Monday, June 21, 2021

It's quite possible that Lawrence Schiller wrote the QUICK article about a homosexual conspiracy that killed JFK.

Several clues point to Schiller. First, he was with Jim Garrison in Las Vegas in early March 1967. While there he and Garrison discussed many of the allegations that ended up in the QUICK article:

  • The homosexual conspiracy that killed JFK.

  • A comparison to the Leopold & Loeb murder

  • Schiller knew about James Dondson being with Shaw in San Francisco during the weekend of the assassination. In addition, Schiller knew that Shaw received a phone call from Richard Randoff [sic]. His real name was Randolph and both the FBI report on the information Schiller volunteered and the QUICK article have the same misspelling.

  • Garrison told Schiller that Ruby's nickname was "Pinkie," which was repeated in the QUICK article.

  • The story about Breck Wall ordering Ruby to kill Oswald was also in both the FBI report and the QUICK article.

  • The story about an offer of lenience to Clay Shaw, if he would turn state's evidence, was also a common theme.

A second clue is that Schiller was also privy to a lot of information from the Garrison investigation. When he met Garrison, he was working as a photographer for Life Magazine, and Life was cooperating with Garrison. Richard Billings, a top editor at Life, spent a lot of time in New Orleans, and his journal is full of references to Schiller:

March 4

Schiller has guy was with Shaw in San Francisco during assassination . . . Jim Dondson his name . . .

Schiller says Garcia Gonzales may show in Fred Kaufman picture taken in Dallas . . . Was arrested . . .

March 5

Schiller with Dondson and other gay folks . . .

Schiller says a guy named Bob Damron knows a New Orleans businessman who claims to have a job application from Oswald that lists Jack Ruby as a character references . . .

March 6

Schiller with Garrison . . .

Schiller says he's heard Oswald was gay, so was Michael Paine, and they did it together . . .

Schiller says Guthman told Liebeler it's been known for two months that Bertrand and Shaw are the same man . . .

March 8

Schiller reports from New Orleans he talking to Shaw's friends . . .

All of Schiller's sources backing Shaw all the way . . .

March 28

Schiller in Dallas to recreate picture of Oswald with weapons . . . says he has information that Shaw has used Bertrand name, not as alias, but as a legal name . . . Says Schiller, Bureau reportedly has documents signed by Clay Bertrand and handwriting checks with Shaw's . . . These are supposed to be checks or contracts . . . Schiller also in touch with Liebeler, who has index of all FBI reports . . .

(Schiller thinks he may be able to locate picture of Ruby watching motorcade . . . taken by an outpatient at Oak Cliff . . . He also list from Bureau report of all 71 people taking pictures at time) . . .

March 29

Schiller tips from Dallas gay source . . .

There is another clue that points to Schiller - the sidebar in the QUICK story about problems with the Warren Commission was based upon Schiller's upcoming book, The Scavengers and Critics of the Warren Report.

The Warren Commission Kept a Secret

"The Scavengers and Critics of the Warren Report" is what Larry Schiller calls his report, about the people who cashed in on the death of the President, which will be published next week in America. The American author points out that the Warren Commission committed gross errors in the investigation of the Kennedy murder. The main points are:

Using Lewis and Schiller's book was a odd choice to base a sidebar on, given the fact that Mark Lane, Edward Jay Epstein and Harold Weisberg all had important books out criticizing the Warren Report. For Schiller, it was handy publicity, no?

And while Lewis and Schiller's book is extremely critical of the various Warren Report critics, it is quite flattering to Jim Garrison. Three pages (pages 201 - 203) detail the early stages of the Garrison investigation with none of the skepticism they show towards first-generation critics of the Warren Report. Schiller concludes the section with:

"But Garrison, despite a flamboyant manner which caused some skepticism among members of the press, had managed to tap new tools of investigation beyond the scope of the Warren Commission. He explored, for example, hitherto silent forces in the homosexual underground. In Las Vegas, Nevada, Garrison met with a close friend of Shaw, James Dondson, who was with Shaw at the moment Kennedy was assassinated. Garrison attempted to verify statements made by his key witness through the use of hypnosis and sodium pentothal, although it seemed doubtful whether such unproven methods would be reliable enough to obtain convictions."

Schiller almost applauds, noting that "The Commission saw no need to utilize such modern sophisticated devices as polygraph tests or drugs, unless requested by its witnesses, although there was nothing specified in their mandate which forbade the use of such modern techniques to corroborate testimony."

When Schiller met Garrison in Las Vegas, he could have convinced him that the best way to get the word out was through the European media - just as critics like Mark Lane had found out. Interestingly, Schiller had co-authored short pieces on Jack Ruby that were published in Europe in cooperation with the Ruby family.

Here is an FBI report with more details.

The only problem for Garrison was that his views evolved from the time he discussed the case with Schiller to the time QUICK magazine was on the newsstands.

It is also possible that Schiller acted on his own. After his conversation with Garrison, Schiller dictated their conversations onto a forty-five minute tape recording. He gave the tape to Life Magazine, and then told the FBI about his meetings. It certainly looks like he was working both sides - talking to Garrison and assisting his investigation, and then informing the FBI. But maybe he was just on his own looking for a way to make a buck.

Here is a letter, from an apparently informed source, sent to Clay Shaw's lawyer alleging, quite plausibly, that Schiller had a long tape of Garrison's conversation with him:

Here is a similar take on Schiller.

Lawrence Schiller had the motive, means and opportunity. However, there is one other candidate who also could have written the QUICK article.

D’oh! The numbers behind Homer Simpson’s favourite catchphrase

Over the years the inhabitants of Springfield have given us a cavalcade of quotable lines to use in our everyday lives. Home to the most famous family in America, The Simpsons, this city has provided the back drop for the animated family’s escapades for 29 seasons now, making it the longest running animated series on TV.

Of all the quotable lines, the most famous is also the shortest—Homer Simpson’s trademark “D’oh.” This annoyed grunt became so universally popular that it made its way into both the Oxford English Dictionary and Merriam-Webster Dictionary, defined as a word “used to express sudden recognition of a foolish blunder or an ironic turn of events.”

The team over at TonerGiant have decided to celebrate this expression by creating an infographic dedicated to all things “D’oh.” Have you ever wondered how many times the catchphrase has been uttered? Which episode it appears in most? Or would you like an insight into the show’s eerily accurate predictions for the future?

All this plus more is included in the infographic below, take a look and indulge your Simpsons fan knowledge!

Skeletons found in mass grave are 17th Century soldiers imprisoned at Battle of Dunbar

A HUGE mass grave of hundreds of skeletons found in Durham has been identified as the remains of Scottish soldiers taken prisoner after the 1650 Battle of Dunbar.

The remains of the ancient skeletons

Researchers at Durham University concluded that the identification of the remains as the Dunbar prisoners was “the only plausible explanation” when scientific data was analysed alongside historical information.

The Battle of Dunbar was one of the most brutal, bloody and short battles of the 17th Century civil wars. In less than an hour the English Parliamentarian army, under the command of Oliver Cromwell, defeated the Scottish Covenanting army who supported the claims of Charles II to the Scottish throne.

Although the exact figures are not known, it is thought that around 1,700 Scottish soldiers died of malnutrition, disease and cold after being marched over 100 miles from the South East of Scotland to Durham, in North East England, where they were imprisoned in Durham Cathedral and Castle, by then disused for several years.

What happened to their bodies has been a mystery for almost 400 years, but the Durham University researchers believe they have begun to solve the puzzle.

In November 2013, during construction of a new café for the University’s Palace Green Library, on the City’s UNESCO World Heritage Site, human remains were uncovered by Durham University archaeologists who were present throughout the building work.

The delicate process of assembling the bones

When we had the results of the first radiocarbon dating tests we had a very broad date range and were not in a position to draw a definitive conclusion

Dr Andrew Millard

The jumbled skeletons of at least 17 and up to 28 individuals were subsequently excavated from two burial pits (a 29th individual was not exhumed).

Since then the researchers have been carrying out a wide range of tests to try and establish their identities.

Experts initially considered that most of the evidence was consistent with the bodies being those of the Scottish soldiers but could not draw a firm conclusion from research conducted in 2014 because initial radiocarbon dating analysis indicated a slightly earlier date of death than the Dunbar battle.

However, further radiocarbon dating analysis of four additional samples, which were carefully selected to ensure a more precise result, in combination with the fact that some of the prisoners had smoked clay pipes - known to be in common use in Scotland after 1620 - has concluded that the date of death was between 1625 and 1660.

When these dates are combined with the nature of the graves; the results of earlier scientific and observational tests that established the adult skeletons were all male; the fact that the skeletons were predominantly aged between 13-25 years old; and the skeletons were of likely Scottish origin according to isotopic analyses, all this points to their identification as the prisoners from the Dunbar battle.

Skeletons of 17th Century Scottish soldiers found in mass graves

A team of experts from Archaeological Services Durham University – the University’s commercial archaeology consultancy unit - and academics from the departments of Archaeology and Earth Sciences, worked together to excavate and analyse the skeletons.

The excavation and research were funded by Durham University.

Dr Andrew Millard, senior lecturer with Durham University’s Department of Archaeology, said: “Proving a theory in archaeology involves assembling lots of different types of evidence and piecing the jigsaw together so that we can make an informed assessment.

“When we had the results of the first radiocarbon dating tests we had a very broad date range and were not in a position to draw a definitive conclusion as to the identity of the skeletons, which is why we carried out further tests.

“Taking into account the range of detailed scientific evidence we have now, alongside historical evidence from the time, the identification of the bodies as the Scottish soldiers from the Battle of Dunbar is the only plausible explanation.”

The battle left anywhere between 300 and 5,000 dead. Modern calculations suggest that an estimated 6,000 Scottish soldiers were taken prisoner with about 1,000 of those who were sick and wounded then released to go home.

The remains of a 17th Century skeleton

About 1,000 of the men are believed to have died en route to Durham from a combination of hunger, exhaustion and gastric problems – probably dysentery. Others were executed, while some escaped.

Around 3,000 Scottish soldiers in total were then imprisoned in Durham Cathedral and Castle, at a time when the Cathedral was empty and abandoned, its Dean and Chapter having been evicted and worship suppressed by order of Oliver Cromwell, as was the case with all English Cathedrals at that time.

An estimated 1,700 prisoners from the battle died and were buried in Durham and experts say that there are potentially many more burials nearby.

Richard Annis, senior archaeologist, Archaeological Services Durham University, said: “This is an extremely significant find, particularly because it sheds new light on a 365-year old mystery of what happened to the bodies of the soldiers who died.

“Their burial was a military operation: the dead bodies were tipped into two pits, possibly over a period of days. They were at the far end of what would have been the Durham Castle grounds, as far as possible from the Castle itself - they were out of sight, out of mind.

“It is quite possible that there are more mass graves under what are now University buildings that would have been open ground in the early to mid-16th Century.”

The Durham University team, with Durham Cathedral, will be working with partners and interested parties to determine what will happen to the remains of the Scottish soldiers, and an appropriate commemoration.

Bones laid out on a tableNORTH NEWS

The test results have revealed the staggering age of the bones

These discussions are likely to include the Church of Scotland, since the prisoners would have been predominantly Scottish Presbyterians. Remembrance prayers will be said at Durham Cathedral tomorrow (Thursday, September 3),

the anniversary of the Battle of Dunbar. Canon Rosalind Brown, of Durham Cathedral, said: “There is a plaque at Durham Cathedral in commemoration of the Scottish soldiers, which was dedicated in November 2011 on St Andrew’s Day.

The discovery of the bodies and the conclusion that they are some of the Scottish soldiers is of great significance.

“The Cathedral will work closely with all interested parties to determine the most appropriate course of action for the burial of the soldiers in a manner appropriate to their Christian tradition.

"We are particularly mindful of descendants of the Scottish soldiers and hope and pray that this new information can bring solace.”

If considered appropriate, there could be further research work to determine further biographical details and discover more about the lives the soldiers led prior to their involvement in the Battle of Dunbar, although this will require additional funding.

The bodies will eventually need to be reburied according to the terms of the exhumation licence issued by the Ministry of Justice.

Indigenous council abandons China event

Taiwan News
Date: 2016-10-20
By: Matthew Strong, Taiwan News, Staff Writer

TAIPEI (Taiwan News) – The government’s Council of Indigenous Peoples decided to abandon plans to 6774802attend a fair in the Chinese city of Hangzhou after organizers wanted to replace the term “indigenous peoples” with “minorities,” reports said Wednesday.

A group of ten indigenous business people from the creative sector were to have joined the delegation Wednesday to attend the 10th edition of a cultural creativity fair in Hangzhou until October 24.

However, on October 14, they received news from a Taiwanese business association that the fair organizers were demanding that all inscriptions, posters and documents during the event use the Mandarin Chinese term for “minorities” instead of “indigenous peoples.”

The Council said it had continued indirect contacts with the fair organizers to discuss the name, but the latter had insisted that in China, the name “minorities” should be used, and that the term “indigenous peoples” should not be read anywhere during the event.    [FULL  STORY]

Pilots and Air Traffic Controllers May Receive Johnson & Johnson's Vaccine, With Appropriate Precautions

Pilots and Air Traffic Controllers May Receive Johnson & Johnson's Vaccine, With Appropriate PrecautionsWASHINGTON — Following the Emergency Use Authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen COVID-19 vaccine, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has determined that pilots and others who perform safety sensitive duties may receive the vaccine under the conditions of their FAA-issued airman medical certification. FAA and contract air traffic controllers, who are subject to FAA medical clearance, may also receive the vaccine.

To maintain the highest level of safety in the National Airspace System, the FAA will require the affected recipients of this single-dose vaccine to wait 48 hours before conducting safety sensitive aviation duties, such as flying or controlling air traffic. The waiting period, which accounts for potential side effects, applies to those holding an Airman Medical Certificate issued under 14 CFR Part 67 or a Medical Clearance issued under FAA Order 3930.3C.

The FAA’s medical professionals will continuously monitor the initial distribution of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine and will adjust the recommendations as needed.

The FAA will evaluate additional vaccines as they receive FDA emergency use authorization and will advise pilots and air traffic controllers of any required waiting periods. The agency previously cleared the FDA-approved Moderna and Pfizer vaccines for aviation use, subject to the same 48-hour waiting period.

The FAA applies similar brief waiting periods after administration of other vaccines, including those for tuberculosis and typhoid.

For more information, please visit the Medical Certification page on our website.

How To Evaluate Facility Security Vulnerabilities

Any criminal or malevolent activity requires desire, ability, and opportunity.

Just as every facility is unique, so are its security vulnerabilities. However, these are not static challenges. Those who would seek to gain unauthorized access to a facility and wreak havoc of one kind or another are constantly dreaming up ways to overcome whatever security measures a facility might already have in place. In addition, complacency could create avoidable vulnerabilities that will be easy to exploit. It is important for facility managers to truly understand their facilities' potential vulnerabilities and the likelihood of an incident occurring.

Why bad things happen

Any criminal or malevolent activity requires three elements: desire, opportunity, and ability.

Desire — Desire in this context indicates inquisitiveness, greed, or emotions. Inquisitiveness and emotions represent the bigger concerns, because they will provide more motivation to commit the act.

Ability — Certainly, the availability of the tools needed (lockpick, pry tools, computers, knowledge) is a paramount concern. How easy it is to obtain the tools, and the degree of knowledge required to commit the act, will influence the aggressor’s decision to conduct an attack.

Opportunity — This represents the time frame to commit the act and speaks to the potential for the aggressor to be detected or to remain anonymous. Opportunity exists when a police or security officer is distracted or the number of controls in place is limited. Opportunity is the only aspect of this cycle that we can leverage to prevent a criminal act from occurring.

(Any criminal or malevolent activity requires desire, opportunity, and ability. Facility managers can prevent crime by removing opportunity from the cycle. Source: Affiliated Engineers Inc.)

While desire paired with ability and opportunity describes the criminal cycle, there are two subsets of criminal activity that influence the success of an aggressor. These are opportunistic aggressor and a determined attacker. An opportunistic aggressor is one that will commit an act at a specific time without any pre-planning, making a rational choice of risk versus reward in seconds before committing the act. A determined attacker will have a greater impact and is more likely to be successful because the pre-planning/reconnaissance and tools will be more robust. Thus, the more prevalent the desire or tools, the more likely an event.

Probability and impact

The three elements just described are not the whole story. To understand the risk for occurrence, we need to understand impact compared to the controls or defenses that are in place. This is the fundamental aspect of security that is so daunting, because many are of the "it won't happen to us" mind-set.

Impact in the broadest sense of the term is the measurement of the effects of an incident and the speed with which the organization can recover. For instance, a security incident at an individual facility will certainly have an impact/effect on that single company. However, if that company is a large telecommunications, electricity, or water provider, the impact would be greater. An analysis allows us to make a risk decision on what programs we will invest in to defend against a hypothetical threat.

Home Buyers In Louisville – We Analyze The 3 Ways To Sell

Looking For Home Buyers In Louisville?

We Analyze The 3 Ways To Sell Your Home In Louisville

If you own a home and are thinking about selling to home buyers in Louisville, you have a number of selling options available to you. In this blog post, we’ll look at those 3 ways and break them down to help you determine which way is best for you.

For most people, owning a home is the largest purchase of their lives. So it’s not surprising that the process of buying a home or selling a home can be extremely complex.

Over the years, three home-selling options have developed to allow homeowners like you to sell to home buyers in Louisville. As you think about selling your home, you need to decide which way to sell is best for you, given your goals and timeline to sell.

Not sure with of these methods below is right for you? Click here to fill out the form or call 502-289-6166 and we’d be happy to give you a no-obligation consultation

Home-Selling Method #1: Sell Through A Real Estate Agent

This is the traditional way to sell your home so it is the most common method.  The homeowner chooses a real estate agent who will then list the house for them.

The agent acts as a “middleman,” showing prospective home buyers in Louisville through your house until one of those buyers decides to buy. They’ll make an offer, the agent will negotiate on your behalf, and then you’ll close.

The timeline on this selling method can take months (the average is 3-6 months). Sellers who choose this method prefer to gamble on the timeline to do less work (the agent does the work) and with the hopes of selling at the market price. However, sellers who use this method will often need to spend money up-front to repair their house first, and then spend money after the sale on agent fees and commissions.

Home-Selling Method #2: Sell On Your Own

The popularity of this method of selling has grown in response to a desire to save money on agent commissions. The process is very similar to the above method of selling but it’s done by the homeowner themselves, and not by an agent.

The homeowner lists their house, shows it to prospective buyers, negotiates with the buyer, and closes the deal.

There are a lot of similarities – the timeline is usually the same and the homeowner will still have to pay up-front for repairs on their house to make it sellable. Sellers who choose this method don’t mind the extra work involved in showing their house.  Sellers usually choose this method to save money on commissions.

Home-Selling Method #3: Sell Direct To Home Buyer In Louisville

This method of selling is gaining popularity as homeowners look for a third way to sell. This process is very different – it’s also faster, easier, and doesn’t cost the homeowner anything (so it’s not surprising that this method is popular!).

Rather than listing and showing the house and negotiating with potential buyers, the homeowner simply sells their house directly to a professional home buyer in Louisville for cash.  The professional home buyer is willing to buy the property “as-is” so there is no need for repairs or renovations.

  • This method is faster, much faster.  The buyer has money and is ready to buy.
  • It’s easier on the seller – there is no expense or effort to repair the house before it’s sold.
  • It doesn’t cost the homeowner anything – professional home buyers (like what we do here at FairSquare House Buyers) usually pay closing costs and fees.

As professional home buyers in Louisville, we love helping sellers sell their house faster, easier, and for no fees. If you want to learn more about our service and how we can help you, connect with us by filling out the form here or by calling 502-289-6166

Shelby Park History

Shelby Park is a neighborhood two miles southeast of downtown Louisville.  The small neighborhood is sandwiched between Germantown and Old Louisville.  The neighborhood is named after Kentucky’s first governor, Isaac Shelby. Shelby Park has always been considered a working-class neighborhood. It was first populated by German immigrants in the early 1900s.  Today, Shelby Park is a blend of ethnic and economic diversity. People from all walks of life co-exist in a vibrant, art-filled community.

The Shelby Park neighborhood is known for its 17-acre park by the same name. Shelby Park was designed by the Olmsted Firm in 1907 and is the only Olmsted park in Louisville with a Carnegie library designed by Arthur Loomis.

Most of the residential homes in Shelby Park were constructed around 1900 to 1910 and are shotgun-style cottages and camelbacks.  Shelby Park is home to Logan Street Market, Louisville’s first and only year-round indoor market with food vendors, artisans, coffee bar, brewery and Farmer’s Market located at Logan and Oak Streets in Shelby Park that opened its doors in October, 2019

Shelby Park is bounded by the CSX rail tracks, Kentucky Street, and I-65 and borders Germantown, Smoketown and Old Louisville.

Peek in our week and some new products from Voxbox

Wow, what a week it has been! We can't believe that the first week of March is over already. It will be Spring in only a few days so I certainly hope the weather starts reflecting it!

So what did we do this week? I for one really made an effort to stick to a schedule of working out and stretching. I even got Scott to work out with me 2 nights last week (which seemed to be the highlights of my evening). He travels a lot for work which makes it hard for us to work out together. I'm hoping we can increase the workouts to 3 nights this week.  In addition, I stuck to a schedule with my bike as well. I got in 10.5 miles this week. It's not great, but I made the effort to ride a little bit every other day and it's a start. -M

I love when I get unexpected packages in the mail and this week I got several! One of them was this VoxBox. I  love VoxBoxes because of all the random goodies that are inside. This box consisted of some John Frieda hair products, some Colgate Optic White products, some Skinfix hand repair cream (much needed during this time of year), and probably the best gift I could get this week was the bag of Tide Pods!  If you happen to see one of my Instagram posts this week you noticed that I've been having trouble with my High Efficiency washer. I threw my stain free marathon shirt in and when I pulled it out, it had mystery stains all over it! I was not happy! I have never tried Pods before so hopefully I will get better laundry results! -M

I got quite a few things sent to me this week to review for my column for work.  I'm not quite sure that those products are related to what I like to write about for my column, but they would have more of a direct correlation to the blog, so you may see some of them showing up on here over the next couple of weeks. Maybe even a few giveaways too!  -M

What did you do this weekend? Have you tried any new products lately?

  1. No new products this week! Those VoxBoxes look fun!

  2. I just bought Optic White. Hoping it helps these coffee drinking bad boys.

  3. I have tried a few new GU gel flavors recently and I love the root beer flavor (which sound weird) and the peanut butter chocolate flavor. Nothing very exciting happened this week, except for watching more House of Cards....we are addicted to that show!

  4. I haven't gotten one of those Voxboxes to try yet- darn! :( Maybe something good is coming this week! Don't forget to email me the referral link for the quilt- I think you were going to do that last week. Happy Monday!

  5. I haven't tried a Voxbox yet, but they look pretty cool!
    I actually am reviewing a cool bag right now. I actually picked this one to try out, it's one of those bags that comes with the pre-folding tab, so all your shirts are folded and placed into the bag wrinkle free, and are supposed to stay that way through all traveling. I just got it, so I haven't played with it yet, but I am excited to. Once I can get back to traveling, this may or may not be a new perfect addition, we shall see:)

  6. I was given some new protein powders to try at a recent marathon expo. I really haven't found one that I really like both for taste and the ingredients so I like to try new ones every once in awhile.

Plenteous Redemption

Jan 12, 2017

We read in Psalm 103:7, “Let Israel hope in the LORD, for with the LORD there is mercy, and with Him is plenteous redemption.”
This word “plenteous” in Psalm 103:7 is found 458 times in the Old Testament. It’s mostly translated as ‘many’ or ‘great’ and truly reminds us of God’s great or greatness in redemption.
Let’s look for a moment at three wonderful truths regarding redemption:
1. The Only Redeemer is God the Creator. Who is the Redeemer? We read in Isaiah 44:24, “Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things, that stretcheth forth the heavens alone, that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself.”
2. The Price of Redemption. At what price did God pay for redemption? He paid the full penalty on behalf of all the elect. 1 Peter 1:18 says, “Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot, who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you.”
3. The Number of the Redeemed. All of God’s elect. We read in Revelation 7:9, “After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands. And cried with a loud voice, saying, ‘Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.’”

Winery & Vineyard Design Ideas For Animal Crossing: New Horizons

This post may contain affiliate links. If you buy something we may get a small commission at no extra cost to you. (Learn more).

From Pelee Island to Hawaii, to the many Italian islands, wineries are a welcome part of vacation spots.

Even if the adult grape juice isn’t your thing, more and more wineries are opening up lines for ciders and stone fruit wines, which offers one great way to use all those fruit trees in New Horizons!

If you’re looking to deisgn your own vineyard area, check out these sleek designs for your own inspo – especially if you want to add a refined rural detail to your island.

10. Reneigh’s Vineyard and Winery

Vineyard and Wine Tasting Spot in ACNH
Image Source by u/thestray

New Horizons is great. But one thing it’s sorely missing is a greater variety of harvestable plants.

This player makes the best of a bad situation by using purple hyacinths instead of grapes! Neat rows beside a villager’s house make for a creative design.

The best part of wine touring is the tasting though, of course. Whether you prefer a sweet Merlot or a dry Chardonnay, this little wine bar has something for you.

Just try not to wine about the long lines on a busy day!

9. Apiary Vineyard

Custom purple vineyard design in ACNH
Image Source by u/shanelmarieapple

Did you know that the only difference between red and white wine is that red leaves the skins of the grapes on in the process?

Red or white, sipping any wine in this gorgeous vineyard would be a treat.

It doubles as an apiary, which is a great idea – bees can pollinate the grapevines, resulting in healthier grapes.

Bright pops of purple hyacinths tie in with the custom designed vertical grapevines for a well-put together build.

The beauty of this build is really in the details.

Wine barrels, a clay jug, even the bee in the left corner… builds like this are always super impressive, just due to the sheer amount of materials needed to put everything together. Well done!

8. Vineyard Restaurant

Vineyard Restaurant Idea for New Horizons
Image Source by u/rad_rentorar

Many IRL vineyards also have restaurants on the property with really fine food. Which makes total sense, because pairing wine and food are a time-honored art form.

Nothing beats a good cut of steak with a dry Cabernet Franc, or a flaky dessert with an exquisitely sweet icewine.

This cute winery and outdoor restaurant build definitely seems like the type to serve some darn good food.

Invite your friends to your island to take fun photos around this build, and cheers to spending some quality time together!

When you can’t visit a real vineyard, doing it virtually in ACNH is the next best thing.

7. Springtime Vineyard

The fresh smell of springtime, the view of cherry blossoms, and the promise of good wine are a tantalizing trio.

This build uses three different fences, and purple roses to mimic the visual of grapevines and wrought iron. And with great success!

Some barrels, a fountain, and a stone light add a rustic but elegant look to the build as well.

It’s a great idea if you have an awkward spot on your island that you just don’t know what else to do with. And if you often have people visiting your island, there’s no risk of them trampling your ‘grapes’ since it’s totally blocked off with fencing. Heck yeah!

6. Outdoor Winery

A good tasting bar is integral to a successful winery.

Barrels as bar tables and low stools, wooden stepping stones, a great assortment of greenery make this outdoor tasting bar a fun & rustic spot.

Invite your favorite villager for a glass of Shiraz, or make a toast with an online friend.

You can recreate this look with any bar, some custom made panels, and any rustic items, like buckets, barrels, clay goods, or flowers that you like.

Imperfect things are beautiful and interesting to look at. So no worries if you don’t have matching sets just yet.

5. Coastal Winery

Seaside winery and restaurant idea - ACNH

Wineries don’t have to be fancy to be beautiful, or to have a great wine!

This coastal build uses barrels, plaid, and mismatched cushions for an interesting rural looking spot.

There are plenty of seats at the long table, too. So invite all of your friends for a fun evening.

It’s the perfect spot to host a virtual birthday party for that wine-loving friend. Or to simply watch a meteor shower with Celeste.

Barn doors lead to the orchard out back as well.

Did I hear something about peach wine? Yum!

4. Simple Vineyard

Basic purple flowers as a vineyard / ACNH Idea

Here’s a great starter vineyard for newer players, or just for players that don’t have loads of resources handy.

Rows of purple hyacinths mimic grapes, and silos (which can be found through the Nook Stop) give the build some great levels.

Plus all the fun details like a wheelbarrow, a dropped shovel, and a water pump are easily available too.

Terraforming is helpful here, but optional.

A few candles on top of a barrel will give a fun bit of lighting when the sun goes down!

3. Roadside Wine Bar

Ah, stalls. The bread and butter of New Horizons content creators.

They’re such a handy tool for all sorts of builds, none less than this cute little wine bar.

Turn something simple into something elegant with brick fences, iron garden chairs and tables, and even some clay jugs if you’re feeling wild.

Bonus points if you add barrels too.

Barrels and wine builds go so well together. And these make for perfect tables – toss on some flowers, candles, or glasses for extra detail!

2. Waterfront Wine Bar

Remember what I said about wine and barrels?

Well, it seems to be a truth universally acknowledged, so to speak. Because here’s another build with barrel tables.

Enjoy the sound of waterfalls as you sip wine at this waterfront wine bar.

Autumn is peak wine season, so having some trees nearby to enjoy the fall colors with your wine is a great idea.

Use custom designed panels to create vertical wine racks for this idea. And if you’re feeling really fancy, you can even add some glasses to a table.

1. Woodland Vineyard

Winery in the woods for a wedding / ACNH Idea
Image Source by u/FuzzyGummyBunny

Did you know that vineyards are popular wedding destinations?

I can see why, when they’re this beautifully decorated!

This woodland winery is decked out with loads of fun items, like an autumn arch, a push cart of flowers, and plenty of trees and flowers.

Custom designed panels show racks of different wines at the back of the restaurant, which look awesome. While normally wineries aren’t found in the woods, I’ll make an exception for this gem.

Excuse me, waiter? Top me up, pal.

The quintessential all-American animated sitcom Family Guy is pushing almost 20 years of hilarious musical numbers and satire on American culture in the most unfiltered manner.

Such an iconic series has given rise to batch after batch of merchandise for fans to show their love for Rhode Island’s most infamous cartoon family.

The more choices we have, the harder it is to discern what the best options are to buy(for ourselves, our friends, and our family!)

To save you some time and streamline the shopping process, I’ve put together a list of some favorite Family Guy merchandise that you can get right now, for yourself or as a wicked sweet gift.

Brian Kidrobot

Some characters are just too complex to describe in a few words.

Is Brian an alcoholic dog? An existentially anxious canine? A labrador retriever with a taste for the good things in life?

I think we’re better off just showing everyone what Brian is all about, and few pieces of merchandise do it as wonderfully as Kidrobot’s 3’’ figurine of Brian enjoying an elegant martini, complete with an olive decoration!

What really makes this one for me is the absolutely disinterested look on his face. He’s having none of your nonsense.

Shop Now

Joe Swanson Kidrobot

If you liked that Brian figure then perhaps you’ll be interested in acquiring the whole set from Kidrobot’s Family Guy line.

Another one of my favorites is this one modeled after Quahog’s resident macho Police Officer, Joe Swanson, complete with a wheelchair to display on.

Our challenges are part of ourselves, and Joe Swanson is a prime example of how true that can be. Being paralyzed from the waist down doesn’t keep him from being a total badass when he needs to.

He’s just a regular guy, waiting for you to add him to your Family Guy collection.

Set of 10 Vending Machine Toys

Ah, vending machine toys.

The thrill of not knowing what you’ll get; the excitement of opening up the capsule to reveal what luck has in store for you.

Very often, the disappointment of having wasted your money can feel like too much. If you’re over gambling and would rather know what you’re getting into then this set of 10 vending machine toys is for you.

Iconic looks of beloved characters such as Mutant Stewie, Brian the Police Dog, and Peter the Showman are just a few clicks away.

Shop Now

Clevemire Figure

Renowned toy manufacturer Mezco has settled on “Clevemire” for this wonderfully disturbing 6’’ figure.

After the events of Y2K in the episode “Da Boom”, the two polar opposites are joined at the hip due to radiation. As you may expect, hijinks ensue. And if you’re a classic FG fan then you’ll definitely remember this episode from the golden years of the show.

Mezco is known for their high quality and creative designs with a lot of attention to detail, and this Family Guy figure is just one of a long history of honoring the show with masterfully crafted merchandise.

Shop Now

Cleveland Brown Toy

Also from Mezco comes this 6’’ figure of Quahog’s token black guy, Cleveland.

This amiable and mild-mannered dude was originally designed just to challenge preconceptions about African-Americans in the show but grew into a star of his own right after The Cleveland Show began airing in 2009.

The completely lost expression on this figure is probably what his face must have looked like once he found out that The Cleveland Show had been canceled.

Instead of sending him back to Quahog, why don’t you give him shelter on your exhibition shelf?

Shop Now

Funko Pop Lot

Being such a relevant series, Family Guy has received countless Funko Pop figurines over the years.

In this bundle you’ll find some of the most classic pairings in the series, like drinking buddies Peter and Brian as well as the enterprising duo of the show: Brian and Stewie.

Peter’s smug look on this high-quality vinyl collectible truly captures his character.

It also features Ray Gun Stewie, for those of you who can’t get enough of the sinister baby.

Shop Now

Family Guy Socks

Socks can be either an inconspicuous way to show your fandom love, or a flashy fashion statement to break the monotony of everyday wear.

We’re not NPCs in a fantasy RPG, you know? Variety is what keeps fashion alive.

Family Guy themed socks can be anything from cute to irreverent. But the one thing they’ll always be is iconic and incredibly recognizable.

Shop Now

Where’s My Money? Mug

Speaking of irreverent merchandise, consider this mug depicting Stewie in the middle of beating down Brian to collect on his debts.

It’s safe for use with any household appliances such as microwaves, and it’ll do a wonderful job holding your Colombian coffee as you catch some Family Guy YouTube clips for some mindless yucks.

I just hope you didn’t take out any shady loans to get it.

Shop Now

Stewie Pillowcase

Bombs, missiles, knives and the like dot this exciting pillowcase design featuring TV’s favorite plotting baby, Stewie Griffin.

It’s much softer than Stewie’s attitude towards his family, and its vivid colors will last longer than a joke being run into the ground by Family Guy’s special brand of humor.

This pillowcase is the perfect gift for any fan of the sinister infant or any child who needs to know you love them, despite their desires to take over the world.

Shop Now

ICUP Drinking Dice Game

Drinking games are something anyone with a taste for liquor can thoroughly enjoy. They’d be a home-run with the Family Guy cast.

Therefore, there really can’t be a better theme for drinking dice than Quahog’s band of alcoholics! It’ll give your get-togethers the touch of irreverent comedy needed to make them truly memorable.

Just pull out the dice and let the booze flow.

Shop Now

Bendable Evil Monkey

Many children all across the world report hearing noises under their beds and seeing entities in their closets late at night. Chris Griffin was one of these unfortunate children, doomed to be ignored whenever he complained about the evil monkey living in his wardrobe.

Now instead of tormenting Chris every night, the monkey can rest on your desk to keep you company on long working nights.

While he comes in his usual pose, this bendable figure will let you twist him however you want.

Just think of it as if it were your boss. Oh, the bending you’d do…

Secret Santa has never been this easy.

Quagmire is notorious as one of the kinkiest characters in modern American television.

Herbert doesn’t always get the appreciation he deserves, despite being one of the funniest characters on the show.

A roundup of FFA news for the week of June 12, 2008

ANDOVER, Ohio — The Pymatuning Valley FFA chapter took May 20 to teach kindergartners and first graders where their food comes from with a program called Food For America.

The children got to learn how they get fish, bacon, cereal, chicken, milk and hamburgers. At the end of the day, the children got a bag filled with goodies and a coloring book.
