United States Attorney McSwain warns of potential scams concerning the economic impact payments that many Americans will soon receive

Date: April 9, 2020

Contact: newsroom@ci.irs.gov

PHILADELPHIA – United States Attorney William M. McSwain warned the public today about potential scams relating to the upcoming coronavirus economic impact payments, commonly referred to as stimulus checks.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was signed into law on March 27, 2020. Under the CARES Act, millions of Americans will start to receive economic impact payments from the federal government in the upcoming weeks. In most cases, this one-time direct payment will be delivered by the Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to individual taxpayers primarily through direct deposit. Despite safeguards in place to protect these payments, fraudsters will undoubtedly attempt to exploit the current situation to steal individuals' personal and financial information through a variety of ways, including phishing emails, social media, robocalls, and text messaging.

"It is paramount that we get this much-needed money safely into the hands of Americans in order to ease some of the pain from the pandemic," said U.S. Attorney McSwain. "The unfortunate reality is that no matter what is going on in the world, fraudsters will look for opportunities to steal. But anybody who tries to take advantage of the pandemic in this manner will feel the full weight of federal law enforcement."

"Unfortunately, there are fraudsters out there who will attempt to victimize vulnerable people during these trying times," said Michael Montanez, Acting Special Agent in Charge of the Internal Revenue Service, Criminal Investigation Philadelphia Field Office. "Everyone should be wary of swindlers trying to steal their COVID-19 Economic Impact Payment, as well as crooked individuals trying to take advantage of the crisis by tricking people into unnecessarily turning over their personal, sensitive information. All Americans should be cautious in this regard and it is asked that everyone also be on the lookout for the interests of the elderly and other susceptible family members and friends."

Below are tips for how to spot and avoid scams:

What Fraudsters May Do:

  • Ask taxpayers to sign over an economic impact payment.
  • Ask by phone, email, text message, or social media for verification of personal and/or banking information for the purposes of expediting a person's economic impact payment.
  • Mail taxpayers bogus checks with contact information (such as a phone number or web address) regarding how the taxpayer can cash the check.

How to Avoid Scams:

  • Don't provide personal or financial information to strangers. Never provide an unknown individual with personal or financial information until you have verified the identity of the person with whom you are speaking.
  • Don't open or click on unusual links or attachments. If you receive unexpected emails, text messages, or social media messages with attachments or website links, delete them. Do not click on, download, or open any of the above, as you may be opening malware on your electronic device that can help criminals steal your information.
  • Checks are deposited automatically. Remember that in most cases, the IRS is using direct deposit to send the economic impact payments. Thus, if anyone is asking you for personal information in any manner, you should be wary and seek additional information to verify the person's identity and employment.
  • There are no fees to receive payment. The government is not asking citizens to pay anything up front to receive an economic impact payment. If someone contacts you asking for any form of payment in order to receive an economic impact payment, please contact law enforcement.

If you or someone you know has been the target or victim of a fraud scheme related to the coronavirus, please report the incident to the national hotline at The National Center for Disaster Fraud at 866-720-5721 or at disaster@leo.gov.

Tax Tip 2019-156, November 6, 2019

The home office deduction can help small business owners save money on their taxes. Taxpayers can take this deduction when they file their taxes if they use a portion of their home exclusively, and on a regular basis, for any of the following:

  • As the taxpayer's main place of business.
  • As a place of business where the taxpayer meets patients, clients or customers. The taxpayer must meet these people in the normal course of business.
  • If it is a separate structure that is not attached to the taxpayer's home. The taxpayer must use this structure in connection with their business
  • A place where the taxpayer stores inventory or samples. This place must be the sole, fixed location of their business.
  • Under certain circumstances, the structure where the taxpayer provides day care services.

Deductible expenses for business use of a home include:

  • Real estate taxes
  • Mortgage interest
  • Rent
  • Casualty losses
  • Utilities
  • Insurance
  • Depreciation
  • Repairs and Maintenance

Certain expenses are limited to the net income of the business. These are known as allocable expenses. They include things such as utilities, insurance, and depreciation. While allocable expenses cannot create a business loss, they can be carried forward to the next year. If the taxpayer carries them forward, the expenses are subject to the same limitation rules.

There are two options for figuring and claiming the home office deduction.

  • Regular method: This method requires dividing the above expenses of operating the home between personal and business use. Self-employed taxpayers file Form 1040, Schedule C, and compute this deduction on Form 8829.
  • Simplified method: The simplified method reduces the paperwork and recordkeeping for small businesses. The simplified method has a set rate that is capped at $1,500 per year, based on $5 a square foot for up to 300 square feet.

There are special rules for certain business owners:

It is being reported that CBS has cancelled 2 Broke Girls after six seasons. Word is the comedy was in contention for a pickup until as late as this afternoon, though negotiations between the network and production company Warner Bros. ultimately broke down.

The diner-based comedy started out as an unlikely breakout hit for CBS when it premiered in 2011, earning the distinction of being the #1 new comedy of the season in both viewers and key demographics. Its dominant ratings eventually tapered off during the later years of its run, though the show maintained a fairly decent-sized audience.

2 Broke Girls aired its now-series finale on April 17, capping a total run of 138 episodes.

If you are now or soon going to be working in the construction world, you have to understand fully what kind of risks are involved with the job. For one thing, you’ll need to know what you’re getting yourself into, and for another, you need to take the necessary steps to keep yourself safe from such risks. Here are some of the important concerns to keep in mind, as well as some of the measures you can take to combat them.

It may not seem like a big threat, but loud or repetitive noise can seriously damage your hearing. You may not notice any damage initially, but later on, you could have significant enough hearing loss to qualify as hearing impaired. This means you will require auditory aids to carry out a normal life. Even if this is not the full extent of damage you end up with, it is also possible to simply lose your hearing in old age much faster than if you never worked in construction. Hence, you must ensure that the proper protective earplugs or earmuffs are used whenever you are on site. If your employers do not provide you with them, they are commonly found workwear online, and are easily affordable.

Dust and Dirt

Make sure you also wear a protective mask at all times, as the pollution in the air at construction sites contains harmful particles. It could be dust, toxic chemicals, or tiny particles of the materials you have to work with. Whatever the case, you must not risk allowing these to enter your respiratory system. You could end up with severe breathing problems, which will last you the rest of your life. If the extent of damage is bad enough, you might even require life threatening surgeries or transplants. Protective masks are specially designed to keep out the particles commonly found in the air at construction sites.

Falling Objects

No matter how many precautions you take, or safety procedures you follow, one of the most unavoidable incidents at these sites is falling objects. Keep your hardhat securely fastened on your head when you’re on site to prevent serious damage should you have anything fall on you. Especially if you have to wear earplugs as well, you may not hear any warnings from your coworkers. Also keep your feet protected in case you drop something by wearing construction boots, which are designed specially to prevent sharp objects piercing the shoes, or heavy objects from crushing your feet.

Corrosive or Rough Materials and Tool Use

The tools or equipment you use can potentially damage your hands. If you’re working with materials that can corrode your skin, or materials such as wood, brick, or stone, you can easily injure yourself. By wearing special gloves, you can avoid these risks and prevent most accidents that you might be vulnerable to.

These are some of the main concerns you should be aware of when it comes to construction work, and it is absolutely essential that you use the right safety gear to reduce the risks involved.

News & Updates

10/27/17 | A vast effort by MouseLight is rapidly increasing the number of fully-traced neurons in the mouse brain. Researchers everywhere can now browse and download the 3-D data
node:field_content_summary | entity_field

An important and challenging goal in modern neuroscience is to understand the brain-wide wiring of neural circuits. To address this, MouseLight is generating axonal collateral maps of individual neurons across the entire mouse brain using high-speed, high-resolution light microscopy.

node:body | entity_field

A major challenge in neuroscience is to relate the structure of neurons to their function. More than 100 years ago, Santiago Ramón y Cajal found that neurons are polarized cells with dendrites and axons, the input and output ends of neurons respectively. His discoveries were based on optical microscopy of histological preparations and single neuron reconstructions. We now know that a neuron's structure is intimately related to its function. Neuronal geometry shapes how synaptic inputs are integrated and predicts a neuron’s position within a circuit. The arborization zones of neuronal axons determine which downstream neurons and brain areas receive information from the neuron, thus forming the basis of circuit organization.

The principal goal of the MouseLight Project is to develop an efficient pipeline to map the complete axonal projections of individual neurons across the entire mouse brain and utilize this platform to generate projection maps of multiple labeled neurons from diverse brain areas. This is a challenging task because on the one hand axons are tiny, with diameters of less than 100 nanometers; tracing axons thus requires resolution and sensitivity at the cutting edge of what is possible with optical microscopy. On the other hand, axonal arbors are huge; individual axons of projection neurons can traverse tens of millimeters across the mouse brain before reaching their targets.  We plan to leverage a fast, volumetric serial two-photon microscope designed and developed at Janelia to image the entire mouse brain with submicron spatial resolution, sufficient to resolve and trace individual axons.

To do this we are:

  • Evaluating and optimizing sample labeling and clearing techniques necessary for imaging fine structures within three-dimensional volumes of highly scattering tissue.
  • Developing computational pipelines for high-resolution axonal reconstructions in the mouse brain.
  • Visualizing and annotating whole-brain datasets containing multiple individually labeled neurons
  • Collaborating with Janelia Group Leaders to address specific biological questions.

Greed Ruins Milwaukee Brewers’ “Where’s Bernie” Scavenger Hunt

The Milwaukee Brewers received a lot of attention this week with the “Where’s Bernie?” promotion. There is the photo above, showing a trunk of at least 10 of the Bernie Brewer lawn ornaments. There was the story of a woman who hoarded dozens of the “Where’s Bernie” gnomes. And of course, there were the reports of the lawn ornaments being sold on eBay and Craigslist for $100 dollars or more.

Designed as a scavenger hunt, the Brewers announced the promotion through Bernie Brewer’s Twitter account, @Bernie_Brewer, on May 16.

“#WheresBernie? I’m planning a scavenger hunt for you, #Brewers fans!”

News of the team mascot’s disappearance spread over Twitter that Monday morning as Bernie Brewer used his account to send clues, 27 in total, as to the whereabouts of his location.

What was to be an exciting scavenger hunt for Brewers fans turned sour almost immediately because of hoarding fans.

Brewers spokesperson Tyler Barnes said “the goal (was) to get these (ornaments) into the hands of as many households as we could.”

Unfortunately not everyone played by the rules creating a backlash from Brewers fans and national attention with coverage from ESPN, the Washington Post, the Star Tribune and other media outlets.

According to official rules of the “Where’s Bernie” promotion, four hundred of the Bernie Brewer lawn ornaments would have special prizes attached and placed in parks throughout the five-county metro Milwaukee area as well as in parks in Madison, Appleton, and Green Bay on the morning of Tuesday, May 24.

Just minutes after the 5:00 AM start Brewers fans took to Twitter to discuss the scavenger hunt and in most cases, express disappointment as they searched for the mustachioed mascot.

I woke up that morning at 4:30 AM to get to the nearest park in time for the event kick-off. As I arrived at Holler Park roughly 15 minutes before 5:00 AM there were already more than a two dozen people searching the park.

I only saw one individual carrying the Bernie Brewer lawn ornament and after less than 10 minutes of searching I made my way to another county park.

If this Brewers fan claimed the Bernie Brewer lawn ornament at Wedgewood Park, it appears it happened well before 4:00 AM on Tuesday.

I reached Wedgewood Park just shy of 5:15 AM where I ran into only two other Brewers fans searching for the garden gnomes. One individual stated that we was sitting in his car at 4:00 AM waiting for the Bernie Brewer lawn ornaments to be placed.

He reported that he didn’t see anyone come by between 4:00 and 5:00 AM and hadn’t had any luck searching for Bernie leading him to believe the clues were wrong in suggesting Wedgewood Park.

Looking back Wedgewood was indeed one of the park to have a prized Bernie Brewer lawn ornament, which appears to have been claimed well before 4:00 AM.

As I was leaving I came across a Brewers fan who said he had already been to Wilson park and claimed two of the gnomes. This was his third attempt to find a hidden prize.

I would later see this greedy fan at McKinley Marina just after 6:30 AM where he was flabbergasted that all of the remaining lawn ornaments had been claimed on the Milwaukee lake front. I felt like calling the individual out. It was unbelievable that he was that greedy.

After the start to the scavenger hunt at 5:00 AM the Brewers released a statement saying that the remaining 1,000 Bernie Brewer lawn ornaments could be claimed at 7:00 AM at the lakefront Milwaukee County parks.

I arrived just shy of 6:00 AM at McKinley Arena to see about 75% of the Bernie Brewer lawn ornaments with a fan standing next to them. The Brewers staff had placed a few hundred of them in the park and people had staked their claim on them by standing next to each one.

I came across one woman who was greedy enough to have claimed three by standing next to one and yelling at anyone that came close to the other two she was holding for family members.

It was sad to see so many greedy people ruin the event. It was a very good idea designed by the Brewers promotional team, but could have been executed better.

I have some ideas on how the Brewers could have had better control over the “Where’s Bernie” promotion. And I hope that the Brewers don’t avoid a similar promotion in the future because of the greed exhibited this past Tuesday.

The point of the promotion was to get Brewers fans excited and to create an event that the city, and parts of the state, could take part in.

Here is one very young Brewers fan who was so excited when his father presented him with a Bernie Brewer gnome. This is exactly what the event should have been about, not a story about a greedy fan that was arrogant enough to Tweet a picture of a trunk full of the gnomes.

  1. […] Brewers teamed up with the County Parks to create a promotional scavenger hunt for Brewers fans by hiding 1,400 Bernie Brewer lawn ornaments throughout the […]

  2. […] year when Bernie Brewer lawn ornaments were scattered across the state and Milwaukee County parks. Greed ruined the “Where’s Bernie” promotion with many fans hoarding multiple lawn ornaments of the team mascot. This year the promotion was […]

Jets Face new Look Patriots With Darnold on the Shelf

As difficult as it may be to fathom the 2020 Jets winning a football game, there’s a very slim chance that they pull that off this evening on Monday Night Football when they take on the 2-6 New England Patriots, who may be getting in on the “Tank for Trevor” sweepstakes with their season essentially done.  Which individual matchups will be worth watching with an injured Sam Darnold watching from the sidelines once again.

DL John Franklin-Myers vs RG Shaq Mason: Facing off against one of the better interior offensive linemen in the NFL, Franklin-Myers will have his hands full.  Franklin-yers has been one of the few bright spots for the Jets on defense this season and will have to get some pressure up the middle if the Jets are hoping to stay in this one.

WR Denzel Mims vs JC Jackson: For the first time this season the Jets have their top three receivers healthy and ready to roll.  With that being the case, this means teams may not be able to focus so heavily on Denzel Mims as Breshad Perriman and Jamison Crowder will command more attention than others have since Mims’ return.  Jackson will be filling in for an injured Stephon Gilmore and Mims will look to impress in his prime time debut.

LT Mekhi Becton vs OLB Chase Winovich: Becton has been fantastic at left tackle and figures to get some one-on-one battles with Winovich who is one of Bill Belichick’s best pass rushers.  It will be up to Becton and company to make sure Joe Flacco has time to read coverages and holding Winovich at bay will be a big part of that.

C Connor McGovern vs DL Deatrich Wise: McGovern is playing on a bum knee and Wise has been a disruptive player for the Patriots on the interior.  If McGovern is a half step too slow, Wish could feast on the Jets inconsistent interior offensive line.  And while he has shown a bit more mobility than expected, Joe Flacco isn’t a quarterback you can win with if he’s on the move all day.

WR Jamison Crowder vs CB Jonathan Jones: Jones is the Patriots top slot corner and Crowder has been Gang Green’s best receiver when healthy.  Even if the Jets look to take some shots deep down the field to Perriman and Mims, a heavy does of Crowder in the intermediate passing game is a must if the Jets want to move the ball with any consistency.

Prediction: Tough to tell if the Patriots are looking to start a tank of their own which could mean the Jets pick up their first win of the season, but we’ll assume that’s not in Bill Belichick’s DNA, meaning a 37-13 Patriots win.  If the Pats do look to mail it in and we see starters getting benched, Adam Gase and company might pull out a close one.

How are Hopkins students fighting food insecurity?

By DRAKE FOREMAN | October 25, 2018

CC BY-SA 3.0/Serge Ouachée Food drives collect non-perishable food items and distribute them to those in need of more food resources.

When students think about food insecurity in Baltimore, they may often envision marginalized communities which lack access to healthy and fresh produce or cannot afford to purchase food. Yet, students on the Homewood Campus also face challenges with food access, whether it is struggling to buy food during holiday break or not being able to afford fruits and vegetables.

The News-Letter looked into a variety of programs which seek to combat food insecurity at Hopkins, in the Baltimore community and in Maryland.

One popular resource for students seeking a free meal is the Free Food Alert (FFA). FFAs help to reduce waste on campus for sustainability purposes and to feed hungry members of the community.

The program started in the fall of 2017, led by Homewood Recycling Office Program Manager Leana Houser. According to Houser, in just the first semester of the program, it was estimated that over 900 pounds of food that would have otherwise been thrown away was eaten by FFA users.

“Within a minute of the alert going out, people stream into the space and line up for food,” Houser wrote in an email to The News-Letter.

The FFA encourages event planners to sign-up on their website, where planners post information about where and when students can find leftover food from events. Organizers post the location, types of food and how long the food will be available for. University affiliates subscribe through the FFA website to get notifications of leftover food either by email or by text. The FFA is open to any students, including students who are not food insecure.

As of December, FFA had over 2100 subscribers, 35 event curators and has held 138 free food events. Houser explained that FFA is by no means meant to end food insecurity on campus nor is it meant to ensure that individuals can have healthy meals every day. According to Houser, food insecurity is a systemic challenge and FFAs are not a reliable source of sustenance. She stated, however, that it does provide a small safety net at times.

Ten percent of the 2,000 FFA subscribers indicated that they experienced food insecurity while at Hopkins, in a feedback survey released last year.

Since FFA cannot provide a consistent and reliable source of food to those who are food insecure, a different project was pioneered congruently, by Nemo Keller, a Hopkins alumna.

In spring 2017, Keller, at that time an undergraduate senior, won the IdeaLab Acorn Grant for the Free Food Fridge project. Keller’s idea was to set up a fridge that kept leftovers which remained after the Free Food Alert went out, so that some students who may not have had the time to make it to the event could collect the food later at whatever time was convenient for them.

The summer after Keller graduated, recent graduate Ivory Loh and senior Emma Zeng took over the project. However, due to health and safety concerns, they were unable to distribute non-perishable foods to the public.

Loh and Zeng were then invited to the Food Insecurity Working Group at Hopkins, where they decided to shift the focus away from a Free Food Fridge and start a pantry that would store non-perishable goods. The Hopkins Food Pantry started its pilot program last semester.

The Pantry is located at the Center for Diversity and Inclusion and operates three times a week, on Sundays from 3-5 p.m., Tuesdays from 6-8 p.m. and Wednesdays from 6-8 p.m.

“When people hear the term ‘food insecurity,’ people often think of low-income communities lacking access to sufficient quality, affordable and nutritious foods. However, many people neglect that food insecurity is also present on college campuses, and over the past few years, its presence has been growing,” Zeng said.

Zeng believes that the number of food insecure students may be growing due to an increased enrollment of low-income, first generation students, the rising cost of tuition and a desire to save time and money by skipping meals.

“The enrollment of underprivileged students often comes with the cost students must bear after they have paid their tuition and purchased books and supplies for their classes,” Zeng said.

When asked about the future of the Hopkins Food Pantry, Zeng stated that she wanted to increase the size of the pantry and mentioned possibly stocking perishable goods in the future.

“Something we’ve heard from people who come to the pantry is that they wish they could see more produce or more groceries, which I’m all for because that’s really nutritious and really healthy for people to have,” she said. “The Pantry has a lot of potential to grow, and I really like how this and the Free Food Alert have all started to take the initiative to address food insecurity. Because I think for a while people weren’t thinking about it.”

The Student Government Association (SGA) has also started to take action against food insecurity on campus. Sophomore Class President Sam Schatmeyer stated that he is aiming to address some of the issues with Hopkins Dining that revolve around food insecurity.

He explained that during school vacations and breaks, many Hopkins Dining locations close, and some students are unable to afford the cost of meals elsewhere.

Executive Vice President AJ Tsang also mentioned that SGA members are taking initiatives to address food insecurity at Hopkins.

Tsang stated that it has become a yearly tradition for the Senior Class Giving Campaign to encourage seniors to give back to the school community. This semester, the committee is trying to fundraise up to $3000 to donate to the Pantry.

“We’re only about 20 percent of the way there, but we’re working towards the goal,” he said.

Other organizations and individuals at Hopkins are also seeking to address the problem of food insecurity in the wider Baltimore community. Sophomore Nick Li is organizing a food drive for student athletes, but it will be open to donations from other student groups as well.

He stated that he was motivated to start the drive because he volunteered in high school, but noticed that there were not many opportunities to donate to food drives at Hopkins. He thought that a food drive would be an easy way to give back to the community.

“A really easy, beneficial activity is a food drive, because we have so much access to food, and we take that for granted whereas other people don’t. Just spend $5 to $10 and donate what could be a dinner or two to someone who can’t afford it,” he said.

To organize the food drive, Li first started off doing research to figure out where he was going to donate the food. His baseball coach referred him to a family friend who runs Heaven on Earth Now, an organization that organizes donation drives.

According to Li, Heaven on Earth Now prioritizes health as a major component in its donation drive.

“Not only are they providing food for people who can’t afford it or don’t have access to it, it’s also a healthier option, which I thought, as a student athlete, in accordance with good health, was perfect for us,” he said.

In addition to providing access to food, other resources like the Maryland Food System Map seek to inform people about where food insecurity affects communities. Launched in 2012 as a project of the Center for a Livable Future based at the School of Public Health, the Maryland Food System Map was created to give people access to data needed to make informed decisions about improving local food systems.

Researchers collect data from a variety of sources ranging from publicly available numbers, including the United States Department of Agriculture’s Census of Agriculture, to local groups like the Maryland Farmers Market Association and Maryland Hunger Solutions.

In an email to The News-Letter, Caitlin Misiaszek, one of the creators of the Maryland Food System Map, explained how the data detailing food insecurity in Maryland was collected.

“On the map we include a data layer from Feeding America — Map the Meal Gap that looks at food insecurity. In addition, we have done in depth work with Baltimore City on the food environment, specifically food retail, which is just ONE piece of food insecurity. It’s a complex issue with multiple factors contributing,” she wrote.

When asked about what she hopes to accomplish with the Map in the future, she replied that she hopes the Map can be used as a starting point for information about food access and communities, cities and counties of interest.

“Using a geographic perspective we can better understand the distribution of people and resources — where are the gaps and need for more resources or where are there opportunities to expand,” she wrote.

Neurosci.2007 Jan 10; 27 AB - The discovery of audiovisual mirror neurons in monkeys gave rise to the hypothesis that premotor areas are inherently involved not only when observing actions but also when listening to action-related sound. However, the whole-brain functional formation underlying such “action–listening” is not fully understood. In addition, previous studies in humans have focused mostly on relatively simple and overexperienced everyday actions, such as hand clapping or door knocking. Here we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to ask whether the human action-recognition system responds to sounds found in a more complex sequence of newly acquired actions. To address this, we chose a piece of music as a model set of acoustically presentable actions and trained non-musicians to play it by ear. We then monitored brain activity in subjects while they listened to the newly acquired piece. Although subjects listened to the music without performing any movements, activation was found bilaterally in the frontoparietal motor-related network (including Broca's area, the premotor region, the intraparietal sulcus, and the inferior parietal region), consistent with neural circuits that have been associated with action observations, and may constitute the human mirror neuron system. Presentation of the practiced notes in a different order activated the network to a much lesser degree, whereas listening to an equally familiar but motorically unknown music did not activate this network. These findings support the hypothesis of a “hearing–doing” system that is highly dependent on the individual's motor repertoire, gets established rapidly, and consists of Broca's area as its hub.

Why elitism will bring Britain Olympic joy

When British athletes did well in the 2012 Olympics, I pointed out that much of the credit should be given to an unlikely hero - John Major, the otherwise undistinguished Prime Minister of the 1990s. As the British team returns from another impressive performance in Rio it may be worth repeating the tribute.

I can still remember the two gold medals Britain won at the Rome Olympics of 1960. Don Thompson came first in the 50km walk. It is hard for a small boy to become excited about a man going for a long walk, even if he does complete it faster than anyone else in the world. However, Anita Lonsbrough’s victory in the 200m breaststroke was an exhilarating triumph.

It was also a rare event. I grew up with the idea that Britain just wasn’t very good at sport. Except for football. Athletics, tennis, golf – the champions had once been British, but now Americans and Australians dominated. The nadir of British Olympic performance was at Atlanta in 1996 when rowers Steve Redgrave and Matthew Pinsent won our solitary gold.

But Britain’s sporting performance now looks very different. Andy Murray might have been Wimbledon champion had he not been matched against the best tennis player of all time. Luke Donald is the world’s number one golfer. And British riders are dominating – can you credit it – the Tour de France. There might be as many as 20 to 30 British gold medals in London this summer.

Football is again an exception. England didn’t even come close in the European championships, and Scotland, Wales and Ireland didn’t even get into the last stages.

What has gone right? Follow the money: there is a direct link to British Olympic performance. The National Lottery began in November 1994. Twenty per cent of the money allocated to “good causes” was earmarked for sport. Too late to influence the dire performance at Atlanta. But by the 2000 Olympics the results had become evident: 2004 was better and 2008 was better still.

Cycling is the paradigm case. In 1997, lottery funding was awarded for a development plan. The strategy was to identify promising youngsters, who would immediately devote much of their time to the sport, and to provide them with intensive coaching in advanced facilities. British Cycling offered this at the new Manchester velodrome.

In the 2008 Olympics, British cyclists won eight gold medals. The initial emphasis was on track racing, which is less popular but easier to organise. Now the pattern of success is repeating itself in road racing.

At the same time, recreational cycling in Britain has soared in popularity.

The focused strategy – select early, train intensively, focus resources – was the brainchild of a sports academic and former elite cyclist, Peter Keen. Select, train, focus has worked almost everywhere it has been tried. Australia adopted that approach in establishing a National Institute of Sport, after that obsessively sport-minded nation did badly at the Montreal Olympics in 1976.

A similar strategy was applied to chess in the Soviet Union. From 1937 until the country itself collapsed, and excluding the brief and farcical reign of Bobby Fischer, the world chess champion was a Soviet citizen. Excellence in chess gave prestige and diverted potentially troublesome intellectuals from thinking about other things. For East Germany, even chess was too dangerous: athletics and gymnastics were the favoured activities.

The strategy offers best value for money in the less popular sports. Britain has become a world leading cycling nation at a cost of about £50m. In mass spectator sports such as football, where money pours in from television rights and oligarchs, the leading clubs all develop and follow their own select, train, focus strategies, and recruit globally not nationally. Much of the cash ends up in the hands of the players.

The proven route to sporting excellence – select, train, focus – is a cost-effective way of achieving national pride and global prestige. I can remember Ms Lonsbrough’s medal 50 years later though I had to look up to see in which city she won it. Twice as much has been spent building the new Olympic velodrome as on the promotion of cycling. It is a beautiful building but one likely to become a white elephant in September.

Sporting victories provide a better legacy than prestige events. The games were last held in London in 1948 (three golds). At the Olympiad that followed, Britain won only a single gold medal. Much of the credit for that can go to Harry Llewellyn: but he needs to share it with his two team colleagues and their three horses.

My Virtual mentor – Mark Joyner

Mark Joyner and John Stringer

Mark Joyner & John Stringer

I had the extreme honor of meeting best-selling author, thought leader/humanitarian, my virtual mentor and new friend, Mark Joyner,  in person for the first time at a conference in Atlanta, GA this past December (’09).

Its funny how deeply others can affect you so just by their LIFE, commitment to their own passions and service the world.  Meeting and talking to Mark impacted me deeply and reminds of me of one of my favorite quotes:

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.  And, as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
-Marianne Williamson

What he does through his company,, is amazing and what impresses me equally is the personal benefits and use value I’ve gained from his Simpleology teachings, free tools and some of his books (e.g  Integration Marketing and Rise of the Author).

If you are unfamiliar with Mark, visit and check out what he’s doing. You can even sign up for the free Simpleology 101 course that served as my introduction to a whole new way of getting things accomplished.

I’ll have other news regarding this meeting in the near future and its a challenge to keep it on the “down low!”

Fox Rage Pro Jointed Replicant

Fox Rage Pro Jointed Replicant, artificiale in gomma tipo shad / swimbait da luccio con molteplici snodi, per una azione estremamente realistica durante il recupero. Esca in gomma per lucci, erede del celebre Replicant Wobble, un autentico bestseller per pike fishing. Assetto slow sinking.

A sizeable lure for every pike, catfish or trophy sized zander, with the shape identical to that of a young rainbow trout! But the size and shape of it is not the only great aspect, we developed a very special multi-partshad structure, so a lifelike movement in the water is guaranteed! Only a live bait moves more naturally. Perfectly balanced with lead and fitted with two super sharp Powerpoint hooks: a 8/0 jig hook and a 4/0 treble.

New rules enforced by the Lady Mayoress mean that sex, weight, height and intelligence need no longer be a factor for joining the Police Force. This opens the floodgates for all and sundry to enter the Police Academy, much to the chagrin of the instructors. Not everyone is there through choice, though. Social misfit Mahoney has been forced to sign up as the only alternative to a jail sentence and it doesn't take long before he falls foul of the boorish Lieutenant Harris. But before long, Mahoney realises that he is enjoying being a police cadet and decides he wants to stay... while Harris decides he wants Mahoney out!

Poll finds American Jews set to vote overwhelmingly for Joe Biden

Jewish voters are set to vote 75% to 22% for Joe Biden, according to a poll by the American Jewish Committee.

The poll released Monday shows the Democratic nominee expanding his support among Jewish voters from a 67-30 split in a poll last month and it includes other signs that President Donald Trump is faring poorly among Jewish voters.

Trump’s record on bigotry may be the animating factor in his poor performance: Asked which candidate in the Nov. 3 presidential election would better handle antisemitism, respondents produced identical results, with Biden scoring 75% and Trump 22%.

The survey was conducted by SSRS from Sept. 9-Oct. 4, reaching 1,334 American Jews by phone; some respondents would have answered questions after Trump once again equivocated when asked to condemn white supremacists in the Sept. 29 debate with Biden. The poll has a margin of error of 4.2 percent.

Biden, the former vice president, has made Trump’s record on bigotry a central focus of his overall campaign and particularly of his Jewish campaign. Biden launched his campaign in April 2019 saying that he was coaxed into running by Trump’s failure to unequivocally condemn a deadly white supremacist march in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017.

The AJC poll shows Biden besting Trump on every other issue including handling the coronavirus pandemic, 78%-19%; combatting terrorism, 71%-26%; and uniting the country, 79%-15%.

Trump fares poorly even on those issues he has sought to draw strong contrasts with Biden: dealing with Iran, 71%-27%; handling crime, 72%-24%; and strengthening U.S.-Israel relations, 54%-42%.

A central plank of the Trump campaign’s campaign in the Jewish community has been his decision to pull out of the 2015 Iran nuclear, deal, which Trump has repeatedly emphasized was finalized when Biden was serving President Barack Obama as vice president.

Another plank has been Trump’s closeness to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Trump has moved the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem, cut funding to Palestinians, recognized Israel’s claim to the Golan Heights, advanced an Israeli-Palestinian peace formula that would allow Israel to keep chunks of the West Bank, and most recently, brokered a normalization deal between Israel and two Gulf Arab nations.

Trump has expressed frustration that his Israel decisions have not garnered greater support in the Jewish community.

Another sign in the poll that Trump has alienated Jews is that just 16% of respondents admitted to voting for him in 2016; exit polls at the time showed 24% voting for him.

The poll showed Jewish voters tend to rank foreign policy low on their list of priorities heading into the voting booth: The top two ranked issues are the pandemic and health care, at 26% and 17% respectively, with foreign policy ranked last among six issues, at 5%. The other issues respondents were asked to rank were the economy at third, 13%; race relations at fourth, 12%; and crime at fifth, 6%.

David Harris, the American Jewish Committee CEO, identified a number of areas of concern for his group, which seeks to achieve a consensus among American Jews to better represent them to overseas governments and in international forums. One was the gap between Orthodox Jews, of whom the poll showed 74 % favoring Trump, and others in the community.

“For those of us in the Jewish world who want to focus on unity, on outreach, on bridge-building within the Jewish community, I think this is a very compelling reminder of how wide some of the differences are,” he said.

Other concerns, Harris said, included the seeming gap between American and Israeli Jews, who overwhelmingly approve of Trump, and the shrinking interest in foreign policy among American Jews.

It’s located in the Northern part of the Alaska Panhandle and is one of the few Southeast communities accessible via road. Haines was originally known as Dtehshuh or “end of the trail” by the Chilkat group of Tlingit.

Haines, Alaska is a great place to experience the outdoors. No matter what your interests are I can certainly say you’ll find something truly amazing in Haines.  From hiking to rafting, wildlife viewing and fishing to history and more. Come visit Haines, this is where your Alaskan dream adventure begins!

Hiking in Haines

Looking for great hiking in Haines? Well, you’re in luck! Haines is surrounded by the majestic Chilkoot Mountains with plenty of hiking. Almost every hike in Haines is accompanied by high advantage points to see as far as Juneau and Skagway.

My favorite hike was to the top of Mount Riley. The trail is a steady climb of almost 2,000 feet in 2.5 miles but offers amazing panoramic views of rivers, oceans, mountains, and glaciers. It’s a great moderate hike!

Seduction Point Trail is another popular trail for hikers looking for a more difficult all day hike. You’ll be rewarded, after scrambling along rocks, with isolated coves, beautiful views and maybe if you’re lucky, a Humpback Whale.

To check out more hikes in Haines use the AllTrails app. It’s great and tells you all you need to know.

Get Wet in Haines!

You can take a scenic rafting trip down the Chilkat River, kayak in Chilkoot Lake, or take a jet boat tour!

The Chilkat River flows right through the heart of the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve which is home to the largest bald eagle congregation in the world. On this very scenic float, with no whitewater, you’ll see thousands of eagles feeding on the salmon.

Kayaking in Chilkoot Lake is a spectacular adventure! You will have the chance to see amazing blue glaciers, breathtaking waterfalls, and lots of wildlife. Immerse yourself in the incredible beauty of wild Alaska!

Eagles, Moose, and Bear Oh My!

The best spot to see the wildlife you’ve been waiting to see is along the banks of the Chilkoot River. The river is roadside and only a mile-long, connecting Chilkoot Lake to the saltwater fjords. The river is filled with 5 different kinds of salmon making it a popular place for bears to feed.

Although, you have better odds of seeing grizzlys in the evening, I went up to the river in the middle of the day and saw a total of 9 different grizzly bears. Thousands of bald eagles, golden eagles and hawks, even a seal, all at the same time! It was an incredible experience to watch them interact in their natural habitat. The mother grizzlies were teaching their young cubs how to fish.

Camping is available at the Chilkoot Lake State Recreation Site if you dare to sleep among the bears!

I have been painting sporadically for about 24 years, beginning with my art schooling and on through all of life’s interruptions and the beautiful timeline of raising my family. My subject matter has varied over the years, but I still find myself gravitating toward the landscape, the marketplaces, and lately, influenced by the beauty and history of the southern California coastline, I have focused much of my work on the old missions that speckle the landscape of California. I hope that I can

Scallops: Wet vs. Dry

Scallops: Wet vs. Dry

There are two ways scallops are handled (and sold) on the market: dry and soaked.

-"Soaked" (also known as "wet" or "treated") scallops have been soaked in a bath of phosphates (or more precisely- sodium tripolyphosphate), for the purpose of adding water-weight

"Dry" is the seafood industry term for natural scallops, which have not been treated with phosphates.

Dry scallops are superior for the following reasons:

  • For searing purposes, dry scallops caramelize beautifully!
  • Dry scallops taste sweet & natural, where "wet" scallops can sometimes have a washed-out, or even slightly "soapy" or bitter flavor.
  • You are not paying for added waterwith dry scallops.
