The movie Grease was released this day in 1978 in the UK. I've still never watched the whole movie but I can remember this being huge at the time. If you have a Ultra High Definition 10K Blu-Ray of the movie and a cinema-sized TV screen you may be able to spot Johnny Casino & The Gamblers (below) performing in the background of the dance hall scene if you pause it in exactly the right spot. They were played by covers band Sha Na Na who, I'd say, can take a lot of credit for the resurgence of interest in 50's music in the 70's. You can hear them performing several songs in the movie but there are very few clear shots of them. The rumour was the Director wasn't a fan.

Grease debuted as a stage musical in 1971 and Those Magic Changes was a new song written for it in 1972 by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey. This 'live' version of the song in the clip above is taken from the Sha Na Na TV show with Johnny Contardo, as in the movie, crystal clear on lead vocals.

The other big connection the band had to Grease was that their pianist, Screamin' Scott Simon, wrote the lyrics to Sandy. This song was written for the movie but is now often included in productions of the musical. The clip below is another 'live' clip from the Sha Na Na TV show with Scott on lead vocals (the show didn't go out live but they usually sang the song live to a backing track as the show was recording).

Mandacaru: Símbolo de Resistência e Vida no Semiárido Nordestino

16Jun

O mandacaru (Cereus jamacaru) é uma cactácea nativa do Brasil, especialmente adaptada às condições áridas do semiárido nordestino. Com sua aparência imponente e espinhosa, essa planta não só sobrevive em ambientes onde a água é escassa, mas também desempenha um papel crucial na ecologia, cultura e economia da região.

Características e Adaptações

O mandacaru pode atingir até 10 metros de altura, com um caule robusto e ramificado, coberto por espinhos longos e afiados. Essa estrutura é uma adaptação vital para sua sobrevivência em climas áridos. Os espinhos, além de protegerem a planta de herbívoros, ajudam a reduzir a perda de água, uma característica essencial para sua sobrevivência em ambientes com baixa disponibilidade hídrica. Suas flores brancas, que se abrem durante a noite, são um espetáculo à parte. Elas exalam um aroma suave, atraindo polinizadores noturnos, como mariposas e morcegos. Após a polinização, o mandacaru produz frutos comestíveis, de cor vermelha ou amarelada, que servem de alimento para diversas espécies de animais, incluindo aves, insetos e até mesmo seres humanos.

Importância Cultural

O mandacaru é muito mais do que uma planta adaptada ao semiárido; ele é um símbolo cultural profundamente enraizado na vida dos nordestinos. A planta é frequentemente mencionada em músicas, poesias e literatura regional, representando a força, a resiliência e a esperança do povo sertanejo. Na música popular brasileira, o mandacaru é frequentemente associado à esperança de chuva e à superação das dificuldades impostas pela seca. A famosa canção "Mandacaru, quando fulora na seca, é o sinal que a chuva chega no sertão" de Luiz Gonzaga, por exemplo, ilustra perfeitamente essa simbologia.

Usos Medicinais e Econômicos

Além de seu valor simbólico, o mandacaru tem diversos usos práticos. Na medicina popular, ele é utilizado no tratamento de problemas respiratórios, dores reumáticas e infecções. O suco extraído do caule é conhecido por suas propriedades anti-inflamatórias e cicatrizantes. No campo econômico, o mandacaru serve como fonte de alimento em tempos de escassez. O caule é utilizado como forragem para o gado, especialmente durante os períodos de seca severa, quando outras fontes de alimento são escassas.

Preservação e Sustentabilidade

Apesar de sua resistência, o mandacaru não está imune às ameaças ambientais. A expansão agrícola e o desmatamento do bioma Caatinga têm reduzido o habitat natural dessa planta. Por isso, a preservação do mandacaru é essencial não apenas para a manutenção da biodiversidade, mas também para a proteção da cultura e da vida no sertão. Iniciativas de conservação e reflorestamento na Caatinga, incluindo o cultivo sustentável do mandacaru, são fundamentais para garantir que essa planta continue a florescer e a desempenhar seu papel vital no ecossistema e na cultura nordestina.

Conclusão

O mandacaru é um verdadeiro ícone do semiárido nordestino, simbolizando a resistência e a capacidade de adaptação da vida em um dos ambientes mais desafiadores do Brasil. Sua importância vai além da sobrevivência em condições adversas, abrangendo aspectos culturais, medicinais e econômicos que fazem do mandacaru um patrimônio vivo da Caatinga e do povo nordestino. Preservar o mandacaru é, portanto, garantir que as futuras gerações possam continuar a apreciar a beleza, a resiliência e a importância dessa planta singular no cenário brasileiro.

CJ court watch 17jun23 - two cases

SCt decided Lora v. United States, 599 U. S. __ (2023) on 16jun. Decision was unanimous. J. Jackson wrote for the court. The case was so clear and simple, it makes you shake your head that someone thought there was a contrary rule.

When a federal court imposes multiple prison sentences, it can typically choose whether to run the sentences concurrently or consecutively. See 18 U. S. C. §3584. An exception exists in subsection (c) of §924, which provides that “no term of imprisonment imposed on a person under this subsection shall run concurrently with any other term of imprisonment.” §924(c)(1)(D)(ii). In this case, we consider whether §924(c)’s bar on concurrent sentences extends to a sentence imposed under a different subsection: §924(j). We hold that it does not. A sentence for a §924(j) conviction therefore can run either concurrently with or consecutively to another sentence. I In 2002, members of a drug-dealing group from the Bronx assassinated a rival drug dealer. The Government accused petitioner Efrain Lora of being one of the group’s leaders and acting as a scout during the fatal shooting. After a jury trial, Lora was convicted of aiding and abetting a violation of §924(j)(1), which penalizes “[a] person who, in the course of a violation of subsection (c), causes the death of a person through the use of a firearm,” where “the killing is a murder.” See also §2(a) (an aider and abettor is punishable “as a principal”). Lora was also convicted of conspiring to distribute drugs, in violation of 21 U. S. C. §§841 and 846.***

For some reason the 2d Circuit had a rule that any crime related to §924(c) was subject to the no-concurrent-sentencing rule.

Subsection (c)’s consecutive-sentence requirement applies to a “term of imprisonment imposed on a person under this subsection”—i.e., subsection (c). §924(c)(1)(D)(ii) (emphasis added). By those plain terms, Congress applied the consecutive-sentence mandate only to terms of imprisonment imposed under that subsection. And Congress put subsection (j) in a different subsection of the statute.*** To state the obvious again, subsection (j) is not located

Why does tumblr's text editor stink?

within subsection (c). Nor does subsection (j) call for imposing any sentence from subsection (c). Instead, subsection (j) provides its own set of penalties.***

Moreover, a sentencing court cannot follow both subsection (c) and subsection (j) as written. Combining the two subsections would set them on a collision course; indeed, in some cases, the maximum sentence would be lower than the minimum sentence.***

So, SCt vacated Efrain Lora's judgment and sent the case back for correct action.

***

Smith v. United States, 599 U. S. __ (2023) was another unanimous opinion. J. Alito wrote for the court.

Timothy Smith liked fishing so much that he hacked fishing data from a server in the Middle District of Florida. He did so from Sweet Home, Alabama. The government prosecuted him in the Northern District of Florida. This violates the first clause in the 6th Amendment

In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed; which district shall have been previously ascertained by law****

He moved to dismiss on this ground, and the trial court denied his motion. When he appealed, the 11th Cir agreed with his argument on venue and vicinage, but vacated his conviction so that he might be retried in the correct district. He appealed on Double Jeopardy grounds. SCt was not receptive to his argument.

When a conviction is reversed because of a trial error, this Court has long allowed retrial in nearly all circumstances. We consider in this case whether the Constitution requires a different outcome when a conviction is reversed because the prosecution occurred in the wrong venue and before a jury drawn from the wrong location. We hold that it does not.*** Except as prohibited by the Double Jeopardy Clause, it “has long been the rule that when a defendant obtains a reversal of a prior, unsatisfied conviction, he may be retried in the normal course of events.” United States v. Ewell, 383 U. S. 116, 121 (1966); accord, Bravo-Fernandez v. United States, 580 U. S. 5, 18–19 (2016). Remedies for constitutional violations in criminal trials, we have explained, “should be tailored to the injury suffered from the constitutional violation and should not unnecessarily infringe on competing interests.” United States v. Morrison, 449 U. S. 361, 364 (1981). When a conviction is obtained in a proceeding marred by harmful trial error, “the accused has a strong interest in obtaining a fair readjudication of his guilt,” and society “maintains a valid concern for insuring that the guilty are punished.” Burks v. United States, 437 U. S. 1, 15 (1978). Therefore, the appropriate remedy for prejudicial trial error, in almost all circumstances, is simply the award of a retrial, not a judgment barring reprosecution.***

We have recognized one exception to this general rule: violations of the Speedy Trial Clause, which we have described as “generically different” from “any” other criminal right in the Constitution, Barker v. Wingo, 407 U. S. 514, 519 (1972), preclude retrial. In all other circumstances, we have found that retrial is the strongest appropriate remedy, and we have applied this rule to every other Clause of the Sixth Amendment except for the Vicinage Clause (which we now address along with the Venue Clause).*** the relevant starting point, as both parties agree, is the common-law “vicinage” right, which presumptively entitled defendants to a jury of the “neighbourhood” where the crime was allegedly committed. 4 W. Blackstone, Commentaries on the Laws of England 344 (1769) (Blackstone). As a practical matter, this right imposed a venue requirement: trials needed to be held at the location where “the matter of fact issuable” allegedly occurred to allow the “Inhabitants whereof ” to serve on the jury. 1 E. Coke, Institutes of the Laws of England §193, at 125 (1628) (Coke).5*** There is no question that the founding generation enthusiastically embraced the vicinage right and wielded it “as a political argument of the Revolution.”6 Prior to the Revolution, Parliament enacted measures to circumvent local trials before colonial juries, most notably by authorizing trials in England for both British soldiers charged with murdering colonists and colonists accused of treason.7 The Continental Congress and colonial legislatures forcefully objected to trials in England before loyalist juries, characterizing the practice as an affront to the existing “common law of England, and more especially to the great and inestimable privilege of being tried by . . . peers of the vicinage.”8 The Declaration of Independence also denounced these laws, under which, it said, British soldiers were “protect[ed] . . . by a mock Trial” and colonists were “transport[ed] . . . beyond the Seas to be tried for pretended offences.”9 As States declared independence, most incorporated some form of a venue or vicinage clause in their governing documents, but none of these provisions specified a particular remedy for violations.10***

With this background in mind, we examine the remedy at common law for an initial trial in the wrong venue or before a jury drawn from the wrong vicinage, and we find that this history does not demand a departure from the retrial rule. By the time of the founding, compelling evidence supported the conclusion that pleas of prior acquittal or conviction could not be grounded on a verdict issued in or returned by a jury from the wrong vicinage. The leading decision at common law was Arundel’s Case, 6 Co. Rep. 14a, 77 Eng. Rep. 273 (K. B. 1593), which concerned a vicinage challenge to a jury that had found the defendant guilty of murder. Id., at 14a–14b, 77 Eng. Rep., at 274. The King’s Bench arrested judgment on the conviction because the jury was insufficiently local, but it did not bar retrial. Ibid. Instead, “a new venire facias [was] awarded to try the issue again.” Ibid.; see also Vaux’s Case, 4 Co. Rep. 44a, 45a, 76 Eng. Rep. 992, 994 (K. B. 1591) (adopting a similar rationale for insufficient indictments). Discussing Arundel’s Case at length, Sir Edward Coke’s 17th-century treatise agreed that juries lacked authority to convict outside of their vicinage and added that a verdict by an improperly constituted jury would cause a “mistryall.” 1 Coke §193, at 125*** Early American practice provides further confirmation that violations of the Venue and Vicinage Clauses do not exempt defendants from retrial. Cf. Ramos, 590 U. S., at _ (slip op., at 6); District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U. S. 570, 605 (2008); Crawford v. Washington, 541 U. S. 36, 49–50 (2004). Perhaps most relevant here, this Court embraced the retrial rule for a venue error in United States v. Jackalow, 1 Black 484 (1862). In that case, the defendant had been convicted in New Jersey for a crime committed on a ship located off the coast of New York and Connecticut. Because the crime occurred outside of New Jersey, trial in that State was proper under the Venue and Vicinage Clauses only if the crime was committed outside the limits of any State. See supra, at 4, n. 3. And because the jury’s special verdict on the issue of venue did not establish that fact, the Court directed the lower court “to set aside the special verdict, and grant a new trial.” ***

(“[W]hat constitutes an ‘acquittal’ is not to be controlled by the form of the judge’s action”). Instead, such a reversal is quintessentially a decision that “the Government’s case against [the defendant] must fail even though it might satisfy the trier of fact that he was guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.” Scott, 437 U. S., at 96. In this case, then, the Eleventh Circuit’s decision that venue in the Northern District of Florida was improper did not adjudicate Smith’s culpability. It thus does not trigger the Double Jeopardy Clause.***

Reposted from @conapri El Centro de Estudios de Competitividad del Instituto para el Desarrollo Gerencial (IMD Competitiveness Center) reveló hoy martes #16Jun los resultados de su análisis anual de las economías mundiales, que publica desde 1989 como el Anuario de Competitividad Mundial del IMD. Este informe clasifica a los países basado en cuatro aspectos de competitividad: desempeño económico, eficiencia gubernamental, eficiencia empresarial e infraestructura, tomando también en consideración los resultados de la Encuesta de Opinión Ejecutiva que forma parte de la investigación. Venezuela, aunque se mantiene ocupando la última posición del ranking, muestra señales de mejoría en algunos de los indicadores de eficiencia empresarial, explicado por el progreso en "actitudes y valores organizacionales", que se vió favorecido por los puntajes positivos a los ítems "mayor flexibilidad y adaptabilidad de las personas al enfrentarse a nuevos desafíos", entre otros. #ConapriAlDía #PulsoEconómico #Conapri #competitividad #IMD #competitiveness - #regrann (en El Silencio, Distrito Federal, Venezuela) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBmWFRhninK/?igshid=1euk9imzrvfoy
