Governor Cuomo Announces Suspension of Licenses for Brokers Found to Have Participated in Illegal Activity

Real Estate Agents Preyed on Unsuspecting Victims and Demanded Monies They Were Not Entitled To Receive

Print Email

Albany, NY- August 30, 2013 - Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced the license suspension of three real estate brokers and their respective brokerages, as well as three real estate sales agents, for illegally collecting broker fees from innocent and unsuspecting victims. An investigation by the New York State Department of State concluded that the brokers and sales agents engaged in fraudulent behavior after taking monies from New York City Human Resources Administration (HRA) clients, specifically HIV/AIDS victims, in violation of contractual agreements with the HRA.

“State government does not tolerate dishonest real estate representatives who target vulnerable or unsuspecting individuals for illegal profit,” Governor Cuomo said. “This type of behavior cannot be allowed to continue causing financial and emotional hardship to our residents, and I urge all New Yorkers to remain vigilant about their rights, and report any and all violations immediately so that we can make sure those who do not play by the rules are held responsible.”

“New York State will not allow real estate professionals to take advantage of New Yorkers,” said Secretary of State Cesar A. Perales. "We have ensured full restitution to the victims of these illegal activities. We will continue to pursue those who engage in fraud against our State's residents.”

The suspended realtors had previously entered into a contract with HRA agreeing to negotiate the placement of their clients into apartments within the New York metropolitan area. The contract required the realtors to accept 50% of the monthly rent as the entire broker’s fee for said transactions. The contract clearly stated that the HRA applicant/client was not responsible for any monies in excess of the agreed upon broker’s fee. During the course of the real estate transactions, the realtors demanded extra commission fees from the tenants before allowing them to move into their apartments.

After an internal investigation, HRA referred these cases to the New York State Department of State. The Department’s Division of Licensing Services conducted a full investigation and concluded that the realtors were in violation of a contractual agreement with the agency and had engaged in acts of misconduct and untrustworthiness. The realtors have all entered into consent orders with the Department’s Division of Licensing Services requiring full restitution of monies to victims and prohibiting them from operating as real estate professionals for a 3-month period.

Suspended brokerages and agents:
Jose Centti, trade name broker, America Real Estate brokerage, Whitestone, NY
Wayne Courtney, corporate broker, Wayco Realty Inc., Bronx, NY
Owen K. Thompson, real estate salesperson, Wayco Realty Inc., Bronx, NY
Margie Baraket, real estate salesperson, Re Max Liberty Inc., Ozone Park, NY
Samuel Pappy, corporate broker, Chris T. Land Realty Inc., Bronx, NY
Madeline Trillo, real estate salesperson, Chris T. Land Realty Inc., Bronx, NY

The New York State Department of State is charged with the regulation of real estate brokers and real estate salespersons and with the enforcement of Article 12-A of the Real Property Law.

Lost in the Movies: The Favorites - Ivan the Terrible, Pt. II (#73)

The Favorites - Ivan the Terrible, Pt. II (#73)

The Favorites is a series briefly exploring films I love, to find out what makes them - and me - tick. Ivan the Terrible, Pt. II (1946/USSR/dir. Sergei Eisenstein) appeared at #73 on my original list.

What it is • The Ivan the Terrible films are among the most unconventional biopics of all time: more about gesture and expression than action. Eisenstein stylizes his live actors and physical sets into grotesque cartoons (J. Hoberman notes that the film "approach[es] animation...Nikolai Cherkasov’s stooped, skinny Ivan might equally have been modeled on a Disney vulture"). Even so, Ivan the Terrible Pt. I (1944) comes much closer than Pt. II to conventional biopic format. Its story documents a series of notable events in Ivan's life, from his coronation and victory in battle to the loss of his wife and triumphant return to Moscow after a temporary abdication. The first film also depicts a notable physical transformation, with Ivan slowly morphing from dashing, fresh-cheeked young man to bearded, wizened old(-looking) man. The second film, on the other hand, zeroes in on one specific story, narrowing its scope in both time and space (other than the dazzling checkerboard-court sequence in Poland that opens the movie). The aristocratic boyars who plotted against Ivan throughout Pt. I are now closing in on him in Moscow and only through his diabolical cleverness and dedication is he able to outwit their attempts to humiliate and eventually assassinate him. Although Ivan's wit and charm, contrasted with the devious sobriety of his opponents, secures him as a sympathetic protagonist, he also seems quite grotesque - calling him a "good guy" would certainly be stretching it. This was ostensibly why Joseph Stalin, who had endorsed the first movie, suppressed the second, chiding Eisenstein and Cherkasov for obscuring the motivations for Ivan's "terrible" actions (something Stalin knew a bit about, and must have taken personally). However, Stalin and the censors in his employ also seemed perturbed by the film's avant-garde nature, which takes the experimentation of the first film to new levels. Pt. II mixes garish, hellish colors with stark black-and-white, playing with light and shadow across Ivan's face so that he looks more like an axe murderer than a noble head of state, and distorting its human forms until they exist more as tactile shapes in their own right than easily-understood signifiers. In short, Ivan the Terrible Pt. II is as concerned with form as content, conceiving form as content in a way that simply didn't compute with Soviet preferences for social realism.

Why I like it •
One of this list's perpetual themes is transformation. I love movies that can show how a person, place, or idea evolves over time so that one story contains a whole range of human experience within its confines. As such, Ivan the Terrible Pt. I should be my favorite of these two films: few films better take a human face from clean-cut point A to crooked point Z. Yet when I was composing the list in 2011, Pt. II easily supplanted its other half. Why? Well, as much as I love that big-picture stuff, I am also really drawn to the type of visceral impact that Eisenstein conveys so effortlessly in Ivan. The director's penchant for montage has always appealed to me, ever since I saw The Battleship Potemkin as a teenager and recognized my own affinity for rhythmic cutting in the (then) 75-year-old silent film. Somehow, though, it is Ivan that lingers most emphatically in my memory. Though not exactly ignoring montage, it embodies that same rhythmic impulse within single shots or even single compositions. If Potemkin or October are like Rosetta stones, originating many familiar tricks and techniques that still inform contemporary filmmaking, Ivan seems more like a hidden doorway, opening into an alternate universe of cinematic possibilities between (or beyond) realism or lifeless illustration. These image crackle with the same unnerving energy as the uncanny, modernist score of the other Sergei (Prokofiev). Few movies have been so resolutely theatrical and cinematic at the very same time, not alternating between the two modes but fusing them into something higher. For all their influence and acclaim, the Ivan the Terrible films - and particularly Pt. II - still represent an underground stream that has remained mostly untapped in subsequent years.

How you can see it • Both discs of Ivan the Terrible are available on the Criterion Collection and can be rented from Netflix. I reviewed the two films together several years ago.

What do you think? • Do you see Pt. I and Pt. II as different films, or two parts of the same film? Which part do you prefer? Do you think Pt. I works without reference to Pt. II? Does the Ivan the Terrible saga seem incomplete without the never-completed (and barely-begun) Pt. III? What patterns or motifs do you notice in the mise en scene? Is Ivan's appeal (or lack thereof) intellectual or visceral for you? Which other films, previous or subsequent, capture the same feeling as Ivan? How do you perceive the films' relationship with the earlier - more straightforwardly propagandistic - Alexander Nevsky? How about its relationship to Eisenstein's earlier silent films? Do Eisenstein's aesthetic effects detract from or enhance the narrative? Do you care at all about the narrative or the characters while watching?

Deconstructed Stuffed Pepper Bake

I love a good stuffed pepper recipe. With two tiny twins only a few weeks old, the time I have to cook or bake anything is very limited and stuffed peppers are very time-intensive when I make them. So when I came across a recipe for a bake that was quicker on the prep side and also all of the flavor of the real recipe, I was sold!

I hope you enjoy this bake. It’s also super simple to split up and freeze. I got a little extra cheese and use copious amounts of sour cream and indulged a bit. I also think some hot sauce would have been good but since I’m nursing, I figured it would be best to take it easy on spicy stuff for a while.

Deconstructed Stuffed Pepper Bake

(All ingredients are organic when possible)

1 tbsp olive oil

1 lb ground pork or turkey

1 lb grass fed ground beef

1 small onion chopped

1 large green bell pepper chopped

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

1/2 cup sprouted rice

1 cup chicken stock

1 cup cheddar cheese

1 can 14/5 oz diced tomatoes

Pinch of salt and pepper

Serve with extra shredded cheese, sour cream, and hot sauce

  1.  In a large cast-iron skillet warm olive oil over medium/high heat. Crumble both ground types of meat and cook for 5 minutes or until there is no pink left in the meat.
  2.  Add in onion, bell pepper, paprika, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper, and stir. Continue to cook for 5 minutes until the veggies start to get soft.
  3.  Add in the rice to the mix and stir in chicken broth and tomatoes with the juice. Turn the heat to medium and cook for 10-15 minutes until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
  4.  Layer on the cheddar cheese and let it melt over the top of the dinner.
  5.  Serve and enjoy!

‘When I was 12, something called coronavirus ripped through our country. It was so scary.’ She takes a moment to shake her head at the memory of it all.’: Mom imagines grandchildren’s questions about the quarantine, ‘It was the happiest time of my life’

“‘People were dying. There weren’t enough ventilators, or masks. Big cities were hit very, very hard,’ she says. She hesitates for a second, thinking back to this faraway time. ‘I think it changed us. It changed our country. It made us better.’”

‘Mommy, can I sleep with you?’ Sleep was so very important to me. I’d give up food before sleep.’: Mom says when it comes to ‘sleep’ for now, her answer will always be ‘yes’

“I was particularly comfortable, stretched out in my tempur-pedic dream bed. I was mid-dream when I felt a poke. Startled, I looked up to find my son at my bedside. He leaned in and whispered, ‘Mommy, can I sleep with you?’ I looked at the clock. It was 1:18am. It’s been 700+ nights now, and each and every night he comes to my bedside.”

‘A lot of us don’t got good Christmas memories. My mom couldn’t afford presents, or was too drunk.’: Woman who worked with troubled youth struggles with holiday traditions after hearing their hardships

“I tried to make a big deal out of Christmas in a very middle-American-ignorant-white-girl kind of way. ‘Let’s decorate the tree! Let’s make Christmas cookies! Kids need presents!’ To my WASPY surprise, this wasn’t well received. Confused, I asked him about it. ‘Is this another one of my white girl questions you guys tease me about?’”

‘I can’t believe he left me.’ She looked at me funny. ‘You’d never do that to me.’ I honestly didn’t know what to say.’: Woman explains to daughter why ‘adopted’ father was able to adopt her

“Last week, we were talking about how her little sister could come at any time. She mentioned how she is so excited to be in the delivery room! In the most innocent little voice she asked, ‘Who was in there with you when you had me? Did my other dad stay for that at least?’ I’ve often wondered what Brodeigh remembers about her ‘bio’ dad. The best thing he ever did was allow me to have her.”

‘Why would she do this?! She’s such a pretty girl.’: Woman recounts suicide attempt after devastating breakup by swallowing bottle of Tylenol

“I’d been dating this guy. He was respectful to me. The kind of guy any mom would be thrilled to see their daughter dating. Then he broke up with me. I had to make the pain go away. I swallowed the entire bottle. I didn’t count, I just took. I called my mom to tell her what I’d just done. By the time she arrived, I was slowly drifting in and out.”

‘Why did my parents break up anyway?’ It took me by surprise. I wanted to be honest.’: Stepmom caught off guard by stepdaughter’s ‘tough questions’ over dad’s relationship with ex

“I put my stepdaughter’s plate on the table. She looked at me. ‘Is being a stepmom really hard?’ All I could think was, ‘we don’t have enough time in the day.’ I braced myself for more. She sat for a minute, eating her eggs and fruit. I thought I was in the clear. Wrong. Here came the hardest question. ‘Why did my mom and dad break up?’ she asked. ‘Uhhhh… Uhhhh… Uhhhh…’ I couldn’t give her all the dirty details.”

‘I made friends with Ben. He was good looking, had a job, a wife. He looked like he had it all, but Ben tried to commit suicide.’: Woman urges that depression is not just ‘a woman’s problem’

“Ben told me his wife went behind his back and called health professionals. She told his doctor, she let his boss know, she spoke to his family and friends. At first, he was angry with her, but with tears in his eyes he looked at me and said, ‘She went behind my back, but she saved my life.’ And she did.”

I have written recently about the recklessness of Kurdish leaders in staging their independence referendum. Rather than advance the Kurdish cause, it has probably set it back years, if not decades. Despite its laudable efforts against Islamic State, the Kurdish Regional Government has demonstrated how its tactical prowess exceeds its strategic. This Financial Times article provides a good insight into the thinking that may have ed President Masoud Barzani to hold his expensive referendum.

Last week presented another example of a lack of strategic sense from Kurdish groups. As part of the post-victory celebrations following the defeat of Islamic State in their former Syrian capital of Raqqa, the Kurdish women’s unit within the YPG displayed and photographed themselves in front of a giant mural of Abdullah Öcalan, the imprisoned founder of the proscribed Kurdish terrorist group PKK. Further social media posts have emerged of other YPG members singing the praises of Öcalan and his ideology.

The US-led coalition provided extensive military, logistic and financial support to the Kurdish-dominated Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) which fought in Raqqa, and told everyone who wanted to hear that it was a mixed Kurdish-Arab force without ties to the PKK. Yet a single photo has allowed Turkey to further its claim that the US-supported YPG is simply the Syrian franchise of the PKK. The coalition criticised the actions of the Kurds involved, but the Turkish government was having none of it. The pro-government press has been unrelenting in its criticism of the Kurds and the Americans.

It is worth pausing here to say something regarding the Australians who have volunteered to fight with Kurdish groups. The popular misconception is that the Kurds themselves have only one aim, to defeat Islamic State, and beyond that they are apolitical. By joining Kurdish groups in Syria and Iraq, Australians are simply doing what the Australian government is doing: fighting Islamic State. But when one joins armed Kurdish groups (or any other such groups, for that matter), one becomes hostage to their political agenda as well. They also become hostage to Kurdish military demands; the units in which they end up in will be employed wherever and whenever required.

Australians who think fighting for the Kurds should put them above the law are arrogant, naïve or both. The former Northern Territory Labor Party President Matthew Gardiner, who it is believed tried to join or did join the Kurds in Syria in 2015, has previously asked 'why is the law written so if an Australian helps the Kurds they are treated as criminals?’. Another Australian, Ashley Dyball, who fought with the Kurdish YPG in Syria, was the focus of a favourable 60 Minutes story. During a later ABC interview he said '(the government) say we can't fight for (the YPG), but yet you fund them…if I'm the bad guy, then f***ing charge me’. A third man, Jamie Williams, was arrested at the airport intending to join the YPG in Syria, but the charges were dropped on the direction of Attorney-General George Brandis without further explanation. ‘I think it is ridiculous to be honest. The Kurds are an ally of Australia. ISIS are an enemy of the world. For somebody to be prosecuted for trying to do something — whatever little they can — about this is absurd to me,’ Williams said.

The media coverage and the YPG volunteer narratives pay scant attention to the fact that the Kurds have fought against several groups in Syria during the conflict, including the Syrian military, the Turkish military, the Free Syrian Army (which accused them of coordinating with the Assad regime), and Turkish-backed Syrian rebel groups. Amnesty International has also criticised the YPG for its activities in areas it has conquered.

The complexity of the Syrian conflict and the multiple agendas of Kurdish groups fighting there illustrate just how difficult an operating environment it is. It is simplistic to simply declare that Australian forces are supporting Kurdish fighters and that Kurdish fighters are against Islamic State, so Australians should be allowed to join Kurdish armed groups. No conflict exists in a vacuum, least of all the Syrian one.

The Australian government doesn’t allow its citizen to fight for non-state actors, either proscribed or otherwise, because there is no guarantee that the roles they envisage themselves filling will be the actual roles they perform, or that the groups they thought they would fight are the ones they end up fighting. Foreign fighters perform the roles they’re assigned, and fight the people their chosen group fights. They may be groups the Australian government is operating against, or they may not be. The foreign fighter has no choice, as either the armed group itself, or circumstances, may conspire to change the operating environment rapidly.

War is rarely simple, civil war even less so. One image taken in far-off Raqqa has reinforced the utility of the law that forbids Australians fighting for non-state or semi-state actors. It is a law that should be applied to Australians who have travelled to fight for the Kurds.

really nice once you learn how to finesse it!

By: (Verified Buyer)  from USA. on 12/7/2019
The site's description is 100% accurate. Lightweight, opaque, creamy, and a little really does go a long way. The color is a stunning emerald that is slightly darker than the one showed on the website. I don't think I've seen anything like it anywhere else. I agree with the other reviewer that it can be pretty messy. If you're like me and enjoy the occasional gradient lip, then it's actually great so long as you're careful about application and build it up slowly in layers. If you prefer straight lines, lip liner is a must. If I wasn't so in love with the color, then I'd probably give it a lower rating, but it's so pretty that I'm willing to figure out how to make it work.

Turkey Run

Maidstone Harriers Turkey Run 2020 – Cancelled

Due to the ongoing situation with the COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainty this brings, we have made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s race. We had hoped that we would be able to hold the race as planned and bring some joy to what has surely been a very strange year. However, there are many factors which have been taken into account, and we feel that it will be too difficult to hold a “COVID safe” event without losing atmosphere and essence of the event that makes it so special.

Please be assured that we have not taken this decision lightly. However, we must consider the health and safety of all our runners, our volunteers, and the general public.

Keep well, stay safe and we look forward to welcoming you back next year.

THERE have been no coronavirus related deaths recorded at Worcestershire hospitals for two weeks.

For the first time since the beginning of lockdown, Worcestershire hospitals have had zero new deaths of patients with coronavirus for 14 days.

The latest figures, announced by the NHS today (July 28) show there have been no further deaths with the total number of hospital deaths therefore remaining at 305.

This is made up of 277 recorded at Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust and 28 at Worcestershire Health and Care NHS Trust.

Across the country a further 12 people, who tested positive for the Coronavirus have died, bringing the total number of confirmed reported deaths in hospitals in England to 29,303.

Patients were aged between 45 and 99 years old. All had known underlying health conditions.

Their families have been informed.

The acute hospital trust covers Worcestershire Royal Hospital, Evesham Community Hospital as well as the Alexandra Hospital in Redditch and Kidderminster Hospital.

The health and care NHS trust covers community hospitals and rehabilitation wards, including Worcester City Impatient Unit, Malvern Community Hospital, Evesham Community Hospital, Pershore Community Hospital, the Princess of Wales Community Hospital in Bromsgrove, Tenbury Community Hospital and the Wyre Forest Ward.

The figures on deaths relate to patients who have died in hospital and who have tested positive for Covid-19. They do not include deaths outside hospital, such as those in care homes, prisons, ambulances or in the community.

The government releases a daily figure for deaths outside of hospitals - Public Health England does not release a regional breakdown.

But using Office of National Statistics data up to June 27, added with hospital deaths since, reveals the number of Covid-19 related deaths in the county is at least 527 across all settings.

Meditation on the Liquid Light
Allowing Love's Light
One Love Now

Breathe in and ground into your feet.
Begin to allow a frequency of Light

from your Soul Star,

that which is connected to the All that Is.

Breathe this into the crown chakra,

looking much like a crown of jewelsor pearls,

and the circlet of light that you ARE.

Breathe the light into the brain,

and see the dolphins opening up the fluids
to swim into pineal and corpus collosum,

and to wash away old doubts, fears,

and the illusion of separation.

Breathe now Silver light from the dolphins,

your Sirian brothers and sisters
through the throat and swirling around the heart in liquid light.

Let this silver energy swirl and settle in the back
of your heart. Feel the support of the Universe.

Let that energy now open and expand into the third chakra,

noticing if it has changed colours or vibration.

Let the energy open to the light

of your own soul star frequency and colour.

You then align your energy vibration with allof your hopes,

dreams and desires.

Let it get really big and experience the expansion

of your joy manifesting in the will chakra.

Allow that expansion to swirl and dance

in the watery second chakra.

Again allowing it to swirl
and to settle the ripples of silver light.

Bring that energy via symbol or colour or sound into the root.
As the light becomes more and more liquid,

then let it flow into the Mother

sending your expanded Light Body into the heart of the Mother
engaging her light body as well.

~Blessed Be~

Go deep in your heart sweet child

Your desire and passion live there

Dive deep into the ocean of God

You are One there

Dive deep into the arms of love

You are home there

As you remember the ancient ones

Calling you home,

You also fill up in the deep blue sea

Of knowing

That you truly never left home,

You just went out to play

Mahalo to the whales for the deep

Blue way they carry the love

Leaving no mark

Leaving nothing at all

Flame of the Soul

Dancing breaks the chains of my inhibitions

It releases the core of who I truly AM.

It is the liberation from fear

I dance in the fire of my soul

Burning desire and despair as fuel

I dance in the fire of my love

For the earth and all who dwell here

I dance in the pain and demise

Of a culture that does not feel

I dance to the brink of the edge

And freefall to a new world

I dance for the children of a new dawn

A birth of a flame of the soul

I dance for the fire

I dance in the fire

I AM the fire dancer

We move through sacred spirals

We dance in the sacred heart of the mother.

We are the spirals of love here to transform

Our world into Joy.

We are the spirals of Love.

We are bringers of the light

Bringers of the dawn.

From old to the new,

It shall be done as in the

From the heart of the All.

Of Light, grace intact.

With all the stars shining bright,

The heart becomes the light.

Your Marine Corps

The long, lonely battle to vindicate two dishonored military pioneers

Darkness engulfed the Arizona desert as the first of two aircraft closed in on the landing zone. The mission, part of the Marine Corps’ controversial evaluation of the MV-22B Osprey, called for a simulated communication blackout.

Lt. Col. Jim Schafer, who was co-piloting one of two other Ospreys that were trailing the first pair, sensed a problem as he watched their descent. “These guys are too high,” he said aloud. His decision to maintain radio silence has haunted him for the last 16 years.

It was April 8, 2000, and seconds later, that Osprey lost lift, flipped and plummeted to the ground. All 19 Marines were killed, marking one of the deadliest test flights in U.S. military history. The second Osprey encountered its own trouble, slamming to the ground and skidding 100 yards before coming to a stop. Miraculously, no one in that aircraft was seriously hurt. The Marine Corps would blame the pilots, Lt. Col. John Brow and Maj. Brooks Gruber, for causing the deadly crash, refusing to back down from that conclusion even after a formal investigation cleared Brow and Gruber of wrongdoing.

It’s a well-known story, in large part because one congressman, Rep. Walter Jones of North Carolina, waged a relentless battle to clear the pilots’ names. As the years went by, his effort seemed to become more futile. The service’s senior-most leaders appeared uninterested at best in the congressman’s argument, Jones told Marine Corps Times — heartlessly dismissive at worst.

This spring, the Defense Department intervened, issuing a letter to Jones and the pilots’ families formally absolving Brow and Gruber and gently rebuking the Marine Corps for its obstinance. For Jones, whose persistence came to irritate Marine Corps headquarters, the decision marks an important moral victory — right overcoming wrong. For the pilots’ widows, it brings the closure they’ve so desperately sought since burying their husbands.

For Schafer, who says he suffers from survivor’s guilt, the resolution represents far more. Marines never leave their brothers and sisters behind, he said. Everyone who participated in the Osprey’s development — the ground crews, the pilots and the generals orchestrating it all — faced immense pressure to meet benchmarks and deadlines. Failure was not an option, even if it meant fudging the truth. Brow and Gruber were victims, he said, of an overly aggressive effort to field this aircraft before all of its many engineering problems were fully resolved. Blaming them for the crash was a sin, Schafer said. They deserved better.

“It took us 16 years to bring our guys off the battlefield,” he said. “We left them there, and we finally brought them home with honor. That survivor’s guilt that I live with — that I didn’t call on them to wave off, that I didn’t want to break radio silence — well, that letter helps me.”

Brow and Gruber joined the Multi-Service Operational Test Team almost a decade before the MV-22 reached initial operational capability, a phrase the military uses upon declaring new aircraft and vehicles safe and fit for duty. Being a part of this team was an honor, said Connie Gruber, Brooks Gruber’s widow. “He believed in its mission,” she said.

Schafer, who’d already been with the team for a couple of years, wrote the Osprey’s training plan for pilots learning to fly the aircraft. Everyone on the test team, he said, shared that sentiment. “We wanted to be the guys doing it. When we walked into a room,” he recalled, “people would say, ‘There’s one of those V-22 guys.’”

Maj. Brooks Gruber: A dedicated Marine, test pilot

Connie Gruber describes how her husband, Brooks, believed in the mission of the plane in which he eventually died.

Over time, though, Schafer said the test team felt pressured to meet unrealistic deadlines. The Osprey acquisition program was deemed vital by the Marine Corps, whose "medium lift" helicopter fleet — comprising the venerable Vietnam-era CH-46 Sea Knight — was wearing out. The service's leaders bet big — real big — on the Osprey. Its projected initial cost of $30 billion came saddled with enormous scrutiny from Congress. The test pilots felt obligated to deliver favorable feedback, Schafer said. They weren't allowed to be 100 percent objective.

"On one hand," he said, "we wore a blue hat to test and evaluate it. Then we also had a green hat. We should never have had our green hat on while testing."

Connie Gruber recalled feeling like the Marine Corps had so much riding on the Osprey's success that it the machine became more important to the service's leaders than people tasked with operating it. Corners were cut routinely, she said. Skipped or inadequate testing led to hidden dangers. "The fatal factor," she added, "would be the greediness that took the program from event-driven to timeline-driven."

The demands were "almost impossible," Schafer said. For example, the night of the crash marked the first time the test team was authorized to put four Ospreys in the air. Until that point, there had been so many mechanical flaws that the Marines never even had that many up and running at one time.

"It was so obvious that we were pushing an aircraft that had no business being run through an operations evaluation," Schafer added. "We were testing an aircraft that was under-cooked. Our job was to test it ... and deliver a favorable report to the department of test and evaluation."

There were so many unknowns. The pilots weren't always certain how the aircraft would respond under certain rigors. Schafer had his own close call while switching positions with another Osprey during a nighttime formation flight. As his aircraft picked up speed, it rolled 80 degrees before the flight-control computers kicked and stabilized it, he said.

Another unknown, the one investigators ultimately determined to have caused the Arizona crash, was a phenomenon called "vortex ring state." If an Osprey descends too quickly, with enough forward speed, air can engulf the rotors and cause them to stall. No one knew how to correct the aircraft in such a dangerous state.

Brow and Gruber were among the Marine Corps' best pilots, Schafer said, yet they did not recognize the conditions that precipitated their deaths. That troubles him to this day. "There's something wrong with that," he said, embittered still by the pressures the pilots faced that led to compromised standards.

That, Schafer said, was a result of the constant compromising and under-testing the pilots on the test team were forced to deal with. In addition to testing the Osprey that night in Arizona, Schafer said Gruber and Brow were also flying as Weapons and Tactics Instructor students, which was why it was a no-communication event.

"I should've waved them off," Schafer said. "I should've said, 'Hey guys, stop.' I should've put my blue hat on as operational test director, said 'I work for the Navy right now — we're testing an aircraft. ... But I had my green [Marine Corps] hat on that night."

The Osprey crashed nose first and burst into flames. Schafer and his co-pilot were forced to circle the site for 45 minutes. Their orders were to ward off any media who tried to capture imagery of the scene.

"It was a horrible thing that happened that night," he said. "And where was all this pressure coming from? It's not like we were saving hostages that were about to be taken out by ISIS or something — our enemy was the pressure from the timeline."

Eight months after the Arizona crash, four more Marines were killed during a test flight in North Carolina. The Marine Corps temporarily grounded its Ospreys as a result. At that point, the program had claimed 30 lives.

A redemption letter left on a grave

Connie Gruber describes the moment when she put a letter absolving her husband, Brooks, of any part in a mishap that cost him and another pilot their lives.

The six-page letter absolving Brow and Gruber was written by Deputy Defense Secretary Robert Work, a retired Marine officer who was on active duty as the Osprey was developed. Connie Gruber took the letter to her husband’s grave site in Jacksonville, North Carolina, and laid it on the ground beside his headstone. He and Brow “can now rest in peace knowing their names exemplify the Marine Corps’ values of honor, courage and commitment,” she said.

Brow’s widow, Trish, said the letter was tough to read, forcing her to relive the nightmare. Still, the anniversary of the crash was a little easier. “The load wasn’t as heavy this year,” she said.

John and Trish Brow had two children who are now in their 20s. The Grubers’ daughter was a baby when the crash happened. Brooke, who is named for her father, is 16 years old.

The widows banded together three months after the crash, when the Marine Corps issued a news release stating “the pilots’ drive to accomplish the mission appears to have been the fatal factor.” They felt their husbands had been dishonored, and the Marine Corps, Gruber said, didn’t seem to care. “My questions and concerns,” she said, “were never fully, properly, nor seriously addressed.”

Daughter of fallen pilot reflects on his legacy

Brooke Gruber was a baby when she lost her father and she is following in his footsteps by being active in Air Force JROTC.

Work first began looking into the case last year, and eventually concluded the Marine Corps’ press release was inaccurate. Those words, he wrote, “were incorrectly interpreted by many to mean the actions of Lieutenant Colonel Brow and Major Gruber were solely responsible” for the crash.

“There was a lot more behind this accident,” Work told reporters after sending the letter. ”... It was impossible for me to designate the fatal factor, therefore saying that the pilots were primarily to blame, it was hard for me to do so.”

There were clear deficiencies with the Osprey’s development that were fixed after the crash, he wrote in his letter. While human factors did contribute to the crash, “it is impossible to point to a single ‘fatal factor’ that caused this crash,” he said. In fact, all of the events leading up to the crash made the April 2000 accident — or one just like it — probable or perhaps inevitable, he wrote. “I hope this letter will provide the widows of Lieutenant Colonel Brow and Major Gruber some solace after the years in which the blame for the ... accident was incorrectly interpreted or understood to be primarily attributed to their husbands,” he added.

The Marine Corps offered little in response to a question about whether the service’s public affairs organization, which oversees media relations, has implemented policy changes as a result of this case. “We never have talked about an ongoing investigation and don’t until a report is issued,” said Capt. Sarah Burns, a spokeswoman at the Pentagon. “Then we speak to what the report says.”

When Connie Gruber first approached Jones seeking help, he vowed to her the pilots’ names would be cleared during his lifetime. “Both families have hurt so badly ever since the accident, and they have been frustrated,” he said. “The lawsuits have been over for years. This was just to get a correction to the misrepresentation that the pilots alone are responsible for this.”

Jones, whose congressional district includes Camp Lejeune and the nearby Marine Corps air stations at Cherry Point and New River, has made more than 100 speeches on the House floor in defense of Brow and Gruber. All of the noise made him unpopular with the Marine Corps’ senior leadership.

“I have in my office a Voltaire quote ... specifically for this journey,” Jones said, referencing the 18th century writer and philosopher. “It says, ‘To the living, we owe respect. To the dead, we owe the truth.‘” The congressman had become convinced that some within the institution were willing to do or say anything to protect the V-22 program. He’d met with three Marine Corps commandants over the years seeking to have the case reexamined: Gen. Michael Hagee, Gen. James Conway and Gen. James Amos, who before ascending to the service’s top post was intimately involved in the Osprey’s early development.

“They never showed a whole lot of interest in it, no matter what kind of information I had gathered,” Jones said. “If they had spent a little more time looking at what I had, and been open minded about it, they would’ve come to the same conclusion. There were people around the Marine Corps who were unwilling to give these two pilots the benefit of the doubt.”

Work’s letter arrived in Jones’ office on Feb. 11. “I spent some time crafting it, guided by prayer, research and discussion with a variety of experts,” he wrote to Jones in a December draft of the letter. “I know I didn’t go quite as far as you desired, but I believe it does correct the record, and my soul is at peace.”

Jones presented the letter to Connie Gruber and Trish Brow. Both agreed it was exactly what they needed to move forward.

Wife's quest for truth becomes a family's mission

Connie and Brooke Gruber credit faith in clearing Maj. Brooks Gruber and Lt. Col. John Brow.

The letter proves that Brow and Gruber were pioneers who made “lifesaving contributions to the history of Marine Corps aviation,” Connie Gruber said. That’s true, Schafer agreed. Marines flying the Osprey today follow protocol on high rates of descent, a direct result of the crash.

The Osprey has become one of the Marine Corps’ most important aircraft. It can travel vast distances, enabling a wealth of missions across the world. Despite the challenges and tragedies involved in getting the aircraft fielded, Schafer called it a phenomenal machine. “I love it — it’s a wonderful aircraft,” he said. ”... I truly believe this aircraft is what we wanted to do and needed to do.”

Kelly Burdick, a spokeswoman for Naval Air Systems Command, said the men and women who test new aircraft allow operators and mission planners to better understand how it will perform in various conditions. “Both the strengths and limitations of the system are documented and understood, and built upon over time,” she said. “As a result of this continually increasing experience and the updates that are being introduced, the V-22 currently has one of the best safety records in the fleet.”

In addition to Gruber and Brow, those killed in the crash were: Sgt. Jose Alvarez; Pfc. Gabriel Clevenger; Pfc. Alfred Corona; Lance Cpl. Jason Duke; Lance Cpl. Jesus Gonzalez Sanchez; Lance Cpl. Seth Jones; Cpl. Kelly Keith; 2nd Lt. Clayton Kennedy; Cpl. Eric Martinez; Lance Cpl. Jorge Morin; Cpl. Adam Neely; Staff Sgt. William Nelson; Pfc. Kenneth Paddio; Pfc. George Santos; Pfc. Keoki Santos; Cpl. Can Soler; and Pvt. Adam L. Tatro.

Their role on this mission was equally important, Schafer said. When the military tests new transport aircraft, passengers ride along to provide feedback on the experience, input that further informs development. Despite the struggle to forgive himself, he knows Brow and Gruber did all they could to save those men. “Those guys were the best in the Marine Corps,” Schafer said. “I want people to know that those two Marines did the best they could.”

Pentagon Bureau Chief Andrew Tilghman, Staff Writer Matthew L. Schehl and Video Journalist Daniel Woolfolk contributed to this report. Gina Harkins is the editor of Marine Corps Times. She oversees reporting on Marine Corps leadership, personnel and operations.

Royal Caribbean to Trademark its Own Brand of Face Masks

By The Maritime Executive 04-30-2020 08:14:57

Royal Caribbean has filed a new trademark for its own brand of sanitary face masks with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

The trademark was filed for “Seaface” on April 8, 2020.

Royal Caribbean blogger Matt Hochberg says: “It has been widely speculated that Royal Caribbean, like all cruise lines, will have to take extensive new measures to protect guests against the spread of any communicable ailment on its ships. Deserved or not, cruise lines have been the scapegoat for many in the court of public opinion that they are extra susceptible to person-to-person spread.”

Royal Caribbean Director, Post Cruise Guest Relations & Shared Services, Laly Rodriguez, commented: “This whole situation has made us as a cruise line take on a bunch of other innovations that we've never thought we'd been in the business of taking on.”

Hochberg also reported on comments made earlier in the week by Royal Caribbean Senior Vice President of Sales and Trade Support & Service Vicki Freed. She announced that a doctor's note is no longer needed for guests who are over 70 years old. "We found out that Cruise Lines International Association did actually change this requirement on April 3rd. So a health form is no longer required for those travelers ages 70 plus, nor are there restrictions for those guests with underlying health conditions.

"In our current environment, everything can change at a moment's notice, so this is very fluid. But as of today, there are no requirements for doctor's notes."

Royal Caribbean expects to return to service on June 12.

5 Ways to promote an event using online tools [Tips + Examples]

POSTED ON 25th July 2016

You’ve booked your venue, decided on your speakers or format, but the biggest challenge almost always is promoting and filling up your event. An event page or website is essential, however there’s no chance it will ensure that people will show up.

The good news is, these days there are a lot of budget-friendly options to help you build awareness and most importantly bookings. With the right tools and the right strategy, you can create big exposure for your event.

Here are some great tools that will help create the buzz you need:

Platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, and most recently, Snapchat, are excellent tools you can use to promote an event. They are also user-friendly, cost-effective, and can compliment almost all marketing campaigns including content marketing, product/service launch, public relations, etc.

Sensis estimates 69% of internet users in Australia have a social media profile. Australians use it to communicate with friends and family, research about products/services, follow brand and businesses, access offers and promos, etc. This makes social media a critical tool for your campaign.

To maximise results in social media, don’t just rely on good ‘ol posts. Though regular updates about your event are useful, you should also leverage other tools available to you to get better results. Here are a few tactics you can try:

  • Add a Call to Action (CTA) button in Facebook. Facebook Pages allows you to create CTA buttons that link to any destination on or off Facebook. To promote your event, you should change your cover photo to your event photo and choose the appropriate button (e.g. Book Now, Sign up):

CTA buttons - Promote event

  • Remarket/Advertise. It’s rare that a person buys or signs up to an event after seeing the offer the first time. This is why you need to remarket. Using remarketing platforms like AdRoll, you can create an ad in most social media platforms for a minimal fee. If you are tight on budget, you can schedule your ads to show on the most critical days like 1 or two weeks before the event.

Remember to put together well-written copy, with a visually appealing image and a clear call-to-action (CTA). Use words that emphasise the need for urgency (e.g. hurry, limited time, now, etc.). When remarketing in Facebook, be sure to exclude users who have already purchased a ticket when you fill out the custom audiences page. Here’s an example announcing Ronan Keating’s show in ANZ:

cta button - facebook promote event

  • Take advantage of the additional promotional tools. Most social media channels offer other tools or functionalities within their platform like Facebook Events. This tool is easy to set up regardless of the size and nature of your event. With a few simple steps, you can create an announcement of your event in minutes where you can share posts, upload photos, and invite more guests. For Twitter, you can create a series of teaser tweets to build audience interest. Additionally, you can use your event-specific hashtag(s), so your followers can help spread the word about your event. Use the event hashtag wherever possible including your bio. Some examples below:

promoting event - MA

promoting event - MA2

Get listed on event listing sites to further extend your reach. Eventbrite is a one-stop shop for promoting any event including fundraisers, conferences, seminars, parties, etc.

Sign up for a free account in Eventbrite. Fill in the details regarding your event and choose your ticket types. You can also customise your event page, let attendees pay online, and track your progress. Eventbrite gives you access to powerful reporting and promotional tools, mobile sales and box office features, and 24/7 customer support.

The use of the platform is free as long as you’re not charging for tickets. There are no monthly charges, enrollment costs, or setup fees. However, if you’re charging for ticket sales, you will be charged 2.5% of the ticket price plus AU$0.99 per ticket, plus a 2% payment processing fee in Australian dollars.

Apart from Eventbrite, you can also explore other event listing sites such as Evenfinda, TixrSticky Tickets and Eventlist. Remember to use your event URL link when promoting in social media and in your other marketing campaigns.

Creating an email marketing campaign is another way to promote an event. It’s still an effective tool especially if your target audience are professionals and executives who prefer to receive announcement from their inboxes.

You can include your campaign as an announcement or feature in your monthly newsletter. Or, you can create a special campaign for your event. Here’s a sample newsletter from one of our clients:

DFP - event MA blog

What’s great about this strategy is that you can give more details about your event, and include more images (e.g. photos of past attendees highlighting a successful event the previous year) and other content (e.g. short bio of the speaker/s) to build interest. However, be careful not to reveal too much about the event, and limit everything to the most important information like the who, what, when and where. When listing the benefits of attending the event, remember to frame them in terms of what they can do for your target group. Think about what your subscribers are looking for and what they can take away from your event.

Finally, don’t forget to use call to action buttons that take subscribers directly to a sign-up or registration form for the event (e.g. landing page in your website or Eventbrite page).

DFP - event_2 MA blog

If you have speakers and sponsors involved in the event, it makes sense to for them to extend an offer to their own database.

Offer a discount or value add specifically for clients and contacts of speakers or sponsors. Provide them with copy, graphics and discount codes to make it easy for them to send an email, promote your event on social media and any other platforms they have available.

Similarly interviewing speakers about their topic, adding to a blog or video post will help provide a teaser of the information and learnings people can expect at the event.

Promoting your event at an event is a great way to sell to an audience that is already engaged and interested in what you have to say.  If you have the opportunity to be a guest speaker you can include details of an upcoming event in a closing slide. Alternatively, running a pre-event webinar can help people “try before they buy” and spread word of mouth about the quality of your event content.

Whether you are promoting a concert series, a conference, or a luncheon event, these tools can help you spread the word. Try a variety of tactics and see which works best with your audience so that you can use them for your next events.

Guellec Inks with Marygrove Soccer

DETROIT, Mich.-Coach Tony Williams has started to assemble a “Waterford Connection” as he retools the second-year and defending national champion Marygrove Mustangs for the 2010 season.

On Thursday, the third Waterford (MI) student-athlete joined the Mustang ranks with the signing of former Kettering star Kaylie Guellec.

Guellec, a 5’3″ midfielder/forward, joins two current Mustangs from the Waterford area. Like Guellec, current Mustang team captain Ashley Inglsbee hails from Kettering High School. Jaci Habel, a former Our Lady of the Lakes standout, rounds out the current Waterford players on the Mustangs squad.

The former [Waterford Kettering] Captains student-athlete compiled individual accolades over the course of her career in basketball and soccer. On the hardwood, the point guard earned All-County Honorable Mention honors, while helping lead her team to a 2008 District Championship. While on the pitch, the former team captain garnered All-District honors for Oakland County.

She continued gaining valuable experience as a member of numerous local club teams: Waterford Warriors, Waterford Wave, and the Brandon Mustangs. “I’m looking forward to playing soccer at the next level with the Mustangs,” stated Guellec during her Thursday evening signing.

Coach Williams on Guellec: Kaylie brings yet another reunion to our program. Like [Ashley] Inglsbee, Kaylie is a former player of mine that has developed into a great player over years. She gives us another attacker that will take us to level we want to be at. As a coach, I couldn’t be happier to have a hardworking young lady like Kaylie once again.
