"There's also a statue on Cyprus that's bearded, shaped and dressed like a woman, with a scepter and male genitals, and they conceive her as both male and female. Aristophanes called her Aphroditos, and Laevius says: "Worshipping, then, the nurturing god Venus, whether she is female or male, just as the Night-Shiner is a nurturing goddess." In his Atthis Philochorus, too, states that she is also the moon and that men sacrifice to her in women's dress, women in men's, because she is held to be male and female."
— Saturnalia: Books 3-5, Volume 2, by Ambrosius Aurelius Theodosius Macrobius, edited and translated by Robert A. Kaster

[Free eBook] The Appian Way: Ghost Road, Queen of Roads by Robert A. Kaster [Historical Ancient & Modern Rome Travel]
The Appian Way: Ghost Road, Queen of Roads by Robert A. Kaster, a Professor of Classics Emeritus at Princeton University, is his joint historical exploration cum modern experience travelogue, free for a limited time courtesy of the University of Chicago Press.
This is their featured Free Book of the Month for August and is part of their *Culture Trais: Adventures in Travel" series of history, literary, and pop culture-inspired travel essays.
The book traces a combined historical and modern journey along the ancient Roman Via Appia, an important road in Italy since its beginnings as a key strategic military route in 312 BC, as the author travels it himself, following in the footsteps of common soldiers and traders and pilgrims throughout the centuries, as well as more distinguished literary figures who've written about their own experiences on the Appian Way.
Offered worldwide through August (maybe also through the holiday long weekend), available directly from the university's website.
Free for a limited time through August directly @ the university's special promo page (ADE-DRM ePub available worldwide in return for newsletter signup with your valid email address), and you can also read more about the book on its regular catalogue page.
Description The Roman poet Statius called the via Appia “the Queen of Roads,” and for nearly a thousand years that description held true, as countless travelers trod its path from the center of Rome to the heel of Italy. Today, the road is all but gone, destroyed by time, neglect, and the incursions of modernity; to travel the Appian Way today is to be a seeker, and to walk in the footsteps of ghosts.
Our guide to those ghosts—and the layers of history they represent—is Robert A. Kaster. In The Appian Way, he brings a lifetime of studying Roman literature and history to his adventures along the ancient highway. A footsore Roman soldier pushing the imperial power south; craftsmen and farmers bringing their goods to the towns that lined the road; pious pilgrims headed to Jerusalem, using stage-by-stage directions we can still follow—all come to life once more as Kaster walks (and drives—and suffers car trouble) on what’s left of the Appian Way. Other voices help him tell the story: Cicero, Goethe, Hawthorne, Dickens, James, and even Monty Python offer commentary, insight, and curmudgeonly grumbles, their voices blending like the ages of the road to create a telescopic, perhaps kaleidoscopic, view of present and past.
To stand on the remnants of the Via Appia today is to stand in the pathway of history. With The Appian Way, Kaster invites us to close our eyes and walk with him back in time, to the campaigns of Garibaldi, the revolt of Spartacus, and the glory days of Imperial Rome. No traveler will want to miss this fascinating journey.

El Viñedo Local, Atlanta, 9/10/22
El Viñedo Local, Atlanta, 9/10/22
exterior – 730 Peachtree St NE #100, Atlanta, GA 30308 El Viñedo Local translates to ‘the local vineyard’ and that’s what this place is – a place to enjoy South American plates, wines, and coffees. This is not Central American or Mexican food and so is not so spicy. Empanadas and ceviche are a big part of what Chef Bruno Vergara brings to the menu. Owner Robert Kaster was on site and came by…

Some women have to jump through hoops to get reproductive care but Medicaid will be covering this now
US — Charleston, West Virginia. A federal judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia has ruled that the state’s Medicaid and state employee health programs must cover ‘transsexual surgeries.’
The state of West Virginia previously placed a ban under its Medicaid and state employee health plans on coverage of surgical affirmation of gender identity beliefs. Medicaid is the nation’s public health insurance program for people with low income and covers one in five Americans. 564,000 people are covered under West Virginia’s Medicaid plan. 15,000 state employees are covered under West Virginia’s state employee health plan. In November 2020, Lambda Legal, the law firm Nicholas Kaster and The Employment Law Center filed a lawsuit arguing that the state’s exclusion “discriminates on the basis of sex and transgender status” by precluding “the same or similar surgical treatments … when the diagnosis requiring that treatment is … gender dysphoria,” a violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment, the Affordable Care Act and the Medicaid Act.

The lawsuit, Fain v Crouch, was filed on behalf of Christopher Fain, a 46-year-old female Medicaid participant seeking amputation of both breasts, Zachary Martell, a dependent and Brian McNemar, a state employee. Shauntae Anderson, a Medicaid participant, and Leanne James, a public employee and Public Employee Insurance Agency (PEIA), joined the lawsuit in Fall 2021. The plaintiffs requested class action status, which the court granted, allowing findings to apply to all transgender-identifying individuals who are enrolled in Medicaid or state employee health plans. The defendants argued that, because other “gender confirming treatments are made available under the West Virginia Medicaid Program” and “only a subgroup of transgender people will ever seek surgery,” the ban “is not discriminating against transgender people.” Federal judge Robert Chambers, a Bill Clinton appointee, rejected this argument, finding that “a person cannot suffer from gender dysphoria without identifying as transgender.” Defendants additionally argued that they could not be guilty of discrimination on the basis of sex, because gender identity is something entirely distinct from the sexes, which historically referred to the binary sexes of male and female. The judge found that Bostock v Clayton County, rejects this “limitation” on the scope of discrimination. Bostock is a landmark case decided in 2020 in which the Supreme Court held that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 protects employees from being discriminated against on the basis gay or transgender status. The judge additionally determined that discrimination “against individuals suffering from gender dysphoria is also discrimination based on sex and transgender status.” The proof is that “one cannot explain gender dysphoria ‘without referencing sex’ or a synonym,” the judge claimed, continuing:
“Plaintiffs were subject to discrimination in healthcare services on the basis of sex. The exclusion precludes individuals who are seeking surgical treatment of gender dysphoria from coverage. As already noted by this Court, a transgender identity is inherent in an individual who suffers from gender dysphoria. Transgender status, and thus, this exclusion, cannot be understood without a reference to sex. See Bostock, 140 S. Ct. at 1746. “
Judge Chambers dismissed other arguments made by the defendants that surgical intervention is harmful and long-term effects are unknown, insisting that the “safety, effectiveness and medical necessity” of the highly controversial treatments “have been clearly demonstrated by the expert evidence in the record and is confirmed by the many major health organizations.” The judge concluded that the state’s exclusion “facially” discriminated against transgender-identifying individuals and prohibited the state from enforcing or applying it.

Police and politics have been dangerously intertwined during the 2020 U.S. presidential election

American police have been inserted into the 2020 presidential elections in methods arguably unseen for the reason that 1960s. Three days earlier than Nov. Three elections, a gaggle of Black voters marching to a voting location in Graham, N.C., was pepper sprayed by police. The police deemed the march “unsafe and illegal,” whereas civil rights organizations referred to police intervention as “voter intimidation.”
Chantal Stevens, the chief director of the American Civil Liberties Union of North Carolina, famous that there must be “a method to shut the e book on voter suppression and police violence if we’re to begin a brand new chapter in our story that acknowledges the significance of defending everybody’s proper to vote.”
A CBS information report on North Carolina police utilizing pepper spray throughout a voting rally.
I’ve all the time advised my introductory criminology college students that to know the place energy lies in a society they should ask three associated questions: Who’re the law enforcement officials? Who’re nearly all of these introduced earlier than the courts for legal actions? Who’re these in jail?
Police and politics
The police represent each a vital infrastructure and image of political energy. Around the globe, police and politics are intertwined in deeper methods than could appear evident. British criminologist Robert Reiner’s 1985 e book, The Politics of the Police, engages with the seemingly inevitable tendency of the police to get embroiled in controversies and political contestations.
British sociologist Jock Younger factors out that by means of managing social behaviours, the police are essential markers of who belongs inside civil society.
Police and politics are “horrible twins” — policing is very delicate to the political local weather, and the method for appointing police chiefs is just not essentially apolitical. The consequences are felt within the variety of sworn officers, quantity and forms of policing instruments and applied sciences and arguably, conduct of officers.
Trump, Biden and police division(s)
Previous to the 2020 election, United States President Donald Trump was typically reluctant to criticize the police for extreme use of pressure. In 2017, Trump gave police recommendation for when making arrests: “Please, don’t be too good.” His notorious response to mass protests throughout the U.S. after the dying of George Floyd was “when the looting begins, the capturing begins.”
In Might, President Trump explains his tweet on looting and capturing.
Such feedback earned Trump great help amongst police unions. For instance, the Police Benevolent Affiliation, the biggest police union in New York, endorsed Trump in August and thereby “broke with a longstanding custom of not endorsing presidential candidates.”
Public demonstrations over police violence within the U.S. grew to become a watershed second for outlining who was thought-about a pal of the police. Any critique, nevertheless goal and balanced, appeared unwelcome. Joe Biden advocated for police reforms and took a knee whereas mourning with households of victims of police violence. These appeared to have alienated him from police organizations.

Invoice Johnson, the chief director of the Nationwide Affiliation of Police Organizations, responded that “for Joe Biden, police are shaking their heads as a result of he was once a stand-up man who backed regulation enforcement.”
Trump, however, grew to become the beneficiary of politicized policing.
Condoning police violence
Political policing was evident within the buildup to and through voting within the 2020 election. Whereas on board an armoured tank deployed to regulate non-violent individuals protesting towards police brutality, a police officer thanked an armed militia, stating: “We admire you guys, we actually do.”
On Aug. 25, 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse opened fireplace on a Black Lives Matter protest, and is going through prices within the deadly capturing of two individuals and injuring of a 3rd. Rittenhouse thought-about himself a militia member and was “obsessive about blue lives matter,” a counter motion in help of police.
Trump, recognizing that Rittenhouse was one in all his supporters, refused to sentence his motion, saying that Rittenhouse “most likely would have been killed.”
The Rittenhouse episode demonstrates a mutually intelligible correspondence between Trump and the police concerning whose violence may very well be condoned.
Police affiliations
Trump’s silence within the face of police violence was rewarded with loyalty and help within the 2020 election.
Throughout the elections, a Miami police officer wore a “Trump 2020” face masks at a polling sales space. His motion was thought-about “voter intimidation” and questioned the impartiality of law enforcement officials concerning the end result of the elections.
Michael McHale, the president of the Nationwide Affiliation of Police Organizations that represents about 1,000 police unions, put the police union’s perspective succinctly on the Republican Celebration’s nationwide conference in August: “Your selections are probably the most pro-law-enforcement president now we have ever had or probably the most radical anti-police ticket in our historical past.”
Talking out towards police violence price Biden the help of a union that supported Barack Obama and Biden in 2008 and 2012. Following Hillary Clinton’s electoral upset, investigative journalist Michelle McPhee described the police as “the hidden Trump voter.”
Penalties of politicized policing
Police unions and departments have traditionally performed a task on points referring to regulation and order, welfare of officers and related coverage. Residents employed by police departments and unions even have the inalienable proper to vote. These two roles must be separated from brazen partisanship to affect electoral outcomes.
These points have penalties for the police and the thought of democracy. Politicized policing intimidates voters from sure demographics. It emboldens common residents to tackle policing duties at polls and function self-appointed vote watchers. It erodes police legitimacy, as they change into considered as a mere device within the palms of a politician or get together.
The lack of individuals to vote as a consequence of worry of violence or intimidation by police such because the pepper spraying of marchers going to the polls could make the distinction in extremely aggressive electoral contests. Voter suppression produces undemocratic outcomes. Disenfranchisement of segments of the inhabitants is one possible consequence, as individuals could worry for his or her lives given the historical past of sectarian violence within the U.S.
The erosion of democracy is commonly a painstakingly gradual course of with a particular finish. One state governor in Nigeria criticized the police for direct interference in an election, accusing them of supervising poll snatching and offering cowl for these reported to be engaged in unlawful sharing of cash on election day.
The conduct of U.S. police is just not but at that stage. Nevertheless, whoever wins the 2020 presidential election should enact measures to regulate police politicization.
Temitope Oriola’s analysis group (with Charles T. Adeyanju, College of Prince Edward Island and Nicole Neverson, Ryerson College) obtained funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Analysis Council (SSHRC) for his or her work on use of pressure by police.

Biden anuncia equipe de especialistas para assessorá-lo na luta contra covid-19

EUA registraram no último sábado 127.399 casos da doença, um recorde global desde o início da pandemia Carolyn Kaster/AP Em sua primeira ação como presidente eleito dos EUA, o democrata Joe Biden anunciou nesta segunda-feira os nomes que farão parte de uma equipe de conselheiros que ajudarão o novo governo a implementar uma estratégia para enfrentar a covid-19. A liderança do time será dividida por David Kessler, comissário da FDA, a agência de medicamentos e alimentos, nos governos de George H.W. Bush e Bill Clinton, Vivek Murthy, cirurgião-geral nos mandatos de Barack Obama, e Marcela Nunez-Smith, professora e especialista em saúde pública na Universidade de Yale. Além dos três, farão parte da equipe Beth Cameron, que ajudou a criar uma estratégia de combate a pandemias durante o governo de Obama, e Rebecca Katz, que assessorou a campanha de Biden na elaboração de propostas para enfrentar a doença. Um dos nomes que mais chamou a atenção na equipe de Biden é o de Rick Bright, diretor durante o governo de Donald Trump da Barda, a agência do governo americano responsável por pesquisas biomédicas avançadas e o desenvolvimento de vacinas. Ele saiu do governo por discordar das pressões do presidente para que a cloroquina fosse usada no combate à pandemia. Bright também denunciou que a Casa Branca recebeu alertas sobre os riscos da covid-19, mas os ignorou. “Lidar com a pandemia de coronavírus é uma das batalhas mais importantes que nosso governo enfrentará e serei informado pela ciência e por especialistas”, disse Biden em comunicado divulgado em um site criado para a transição. “O conselho consultivo ajudará a moldar minha abordagem para gerenciar o aumento nas infecções registradas; garantir que as vacinas sejam seguras, eficazes e distribuídas de forma eficiente, equitativa e gratuita; e proteger as populações em risco”, acrescentou o presidente eleito. Enquanto os americanos estavam focados na apuração dos votos da eleição presidencial, os EUA registraram no último sábado 127.399 casos de covid-19, um recorde global desde o início da pandemia. Biden também pretende anunciar o quanto antes um nome para substituir Robert Redfield no comando do Centro de Controle e Prevenção de Doenças (CDC). A ideia do novo governo é que a agência federal esteja na linha de frente de combate ao vírus. Biden anuncia equipe de especialistas para assessorá-lo na luta contra covid-19
