The names were used to select a specific narrative and set attacks on India and perform anti-Gandhi actions,' The Disinfolab report mentioned. In the infamous Lal Singh vs State of Gujarat case, Bhinder was named as the financier of the deliberate terrorist attacks in India. Bhinder was a member of Sikh Youth of America (founded in 1989), which was the pro-Khalistani group spearheading the Khalistani actions within the US and Canada. The OFMI was registered by Friedrich in July 2007, when Bhinder was listed as a terrorist by the Indian government. Pieter systematically targeted these comfortable energy elements of India through several books that he doled out beneath completely different names ranging from Patrick J. Nevers to Pieter Friedrich.

The alternate narrative was designed to hit India's image as a democracy and deem it as a 'Fascist state', with degrading democratic values. The OFMI adopted alternative strategies to dent India's image of non-violence, yoga, and Chai (tea). In line with a latest report by The Disinfolab, the important thing organisation behind these acts was the Organization for the Minorities of India (OFMI), founded by Pieter Friedrich, a self-proclaimed skilled on South Asia; and Bhajan Singh Bhinder, a.k.a. A gaggle of pseudo-specialists was thus created to bolster the alter-narrative,' The Disinfolab report stated. The group was under the radar of the governments in Ottawa and Washington on varied events for his or her links with the International Sikh Youth Federation primarily based in Canada, in a drug trafficking case.

Happy National Boyfriend Day to my fav hockey boys🎉. Every year, I highlight my favorite band members (i used to post about this on insta but i stopped and ya girl has never had a boyfriend) on this day and this year I’m going to highlight hockey players. (I know my chances of actually dating a hockey boy is super unlikely but it’s fun to talk about them).

Without further ado, in no particular order, here’s a list of hockey boys that are currently living rent free in my head/some of which, I would possibly take home to meet my family if I could:

-Carter Hart (THIS BOY RIGHT HERE IS MY CINNAMON APPLE, MY CREAM CHEESE CUTIE. HE’S TALL, HIS EYES ARE NICE, HE WORKS HARD, HE WATCHES FOOD NETWORK AND I JUST LOVE HOW HE’S SO HUMBLE AND SIMPLE AND HE GIVES BACK TO OTHERS LIKE THAT’S SO HOT AND HE’S SUCH A CUTIE)

-Vince Dunn (He may flex his wealth on us but I love the fact that he gives back to others and that he RESPECTS WOMEN and loves his mom, SUCH A CUTIE) (unrelated note: i can’t stand the goalie for the blues because he’s a douchey person but i like Vince)

-Andre Burakovsky (I think a lot about that video of him golfing at Top Golf, you know the one and also about him holding a baby in his Caps jersey. Also, this gif set is so cute)

-Quinn Hughes (Not gonna lie, I was a Jack girl at first but then I converted over to the SUPERIOR Hughes brother. Huggy bear is such a cute nickname and I want to embrace him in a hug. Also, we’re super close in age. Like Quinn is only a month older than me)

-Elias Pettersson (He’s moving in after seeing him in glasses and reading about how he advocated for his friends who were refugees. Also, he will always deserve the Calder over *redacted*)

-Mat Barzal (wears a chain, speed skater, the first guy I read fic for on here and will continue to read fic for. SUCH A CUTIE.)

-Anthony Beauviller (He has such beautiful eyes, he can bake and I wouldn’t mind raising a dog with him)

-Tyler Seguin (my favorite hockey himbo. If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t be on this side of tumblr)

-Jason Dickinson (moved in during playoffs and definitely stayed after kneeling during the anthem)

-Nolan Patrick (a rosy cheeked cutie. I love his friendship with TK, it makes me smile so much. I prefer him with short hair but long hair works for him)

Honorable Mentions because I reached my image limit:

-Travis Konecny (I love TK and his chaotic energy and I also love his iconic chirps and his friendship with Nolan.)

-Pierre Luc-Dubois (he’s anti-Trump, he’s basically a fridge and I wouldn’t mind raising a dog with him as well)

-Elvis Merzlikins (He just moved in a few days ago and I don’t know much about him besides the fact that he’s cute and has a adorable dog)

-Jake Oettinger (moved in during playoffs and he’s basically like the Stars version of Carter Hart. Also, he has the cutest nickname, Otter)

-Brock Boeser (yes, I know about the post and I’m upset about it. He just moved in last month and he listens to One Direction)

-Tyson Jost (loves his mom and that’s so cute)

-Ryan Graves (He’s also a giraffe who reads anti-racism books so)

-Mikko Rantanen (just moved in last month after seeing how thicc he is in shorts and I read a really good fic with him in it)

-Phil Myers (is a giraffe and wears a chain so)

-Joel Farabee and Morgan Frost (they moved in at the beginning of my hockey journey but I haven’t seen much about them or from them on here)

-Andrei Svechnikov (He moved in during playoffs after I saw him in a suit and we’re super close in age)

-Mitch Marner (He moved in the beginning but I don’t keep up with him as much as I used to but he’s still on the radar)

-Gritty (STRAIGHT UP PURE CHAOS THAT I’M HERE FOR)

Stop the aggressions against the Zapatistas! - Manifesto signed by Noam Chomsky, Boaventura De Sousa, Raúl Zibechi, Enzo Traverso, Gilberto López y Rivas and more.

Today those who defend the environment are slaughtered every day. At a time like the one that the planet lives in which the protection of those who defend it is required, the opposite happens. Those who have resisted this destruction by the powerful have not stopped saying NO, they have always done so, although the current administration does not want to have memory.

The murder in the community of Amilcingo, Morelos of Samir Flores, a member of the resistance against the Comprehensive Plan Morelos, its gas pipeline and thermoelectric plants that put the life and territory of Nahua communities in Puebla and Morelos at risk; the massacre of 15 Ikoot indigenous people in San Mateo del Mar, Oaxaca, one of the regions that has opposed the Trans-isthmian Corridor projects; the growing paramilitary violence in Chiapas, with 56 attacks in the municipality of Aldama alone, and the kidnapping in February of members of the National Indigenous Council (CNI) of the municipality of Chenalhó are proof that the war continues.

Now the violence is becoming more and more explicit against the Zapatista communities. The growth of the activity of paramilitary groups such as “Los Chinchulines” or the Regional Organization of Coffee Growers of Ocosingo (ORCAO), as well as the appearance of new groups, is exacerbating tension in the region. The theft and burning of warehouses and houses of the Moisés Ghandi community, of the Autonomous Rebel Zapatista Municipality “Lucio Cabañas”, (in the official municipality of Ocosingo), show the increase in the intensity of the aggressions and provocations against the Zapatista Army of National Liberation. The EZLN has respected the ceasefire for years and has focused on strengthening its autonomous organizational processes with schools, clinics, and justice systems. It is serious that one of the ethical references of resistance and construction of concrete and viable alternatives for the planet continues to be under siege, and it is even more serious that the response of those who seek to “transform Mexico” is complicity or oblivion in the face of these extermination attempts. .

It is extremely worrying that this occurs in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, that there are those who seek to take advantage of the vulnerability in which everyone finds themselves to fuel their ambitions for money and power. It is more worrisome when those who are supposedly in charge of preventing such abuses allow and therefore favor them.

Beyond the erroneous or successful changes of the executive power, which shows this escalation of violence in indigenous areas, and the worsening of paramilitary attacks in the Zapatista territory in Chiapas, is the continuity of the racist, colonial and paternalistic vision of the governments. liberals and conservatives, left and right. Projects such as the Mayan Train show the idea of ​​bringing "development" to indigenous peoples by turning them into cheap labor and contributing only the folkloric image of the Mexican indigenous.

The violence and dispossession of indigenous territories that megaprojects such as the Trans-isthmian Corridor or the Mayan Train imply and require are the ethical breaking point of the current Mexican government, it is where the moral stature that President López Obrador has awarded in front of its predecessors begins to collapse.

Those of us who signed this letter are watching carefully what is happening in Mexico, what is happening in the Zapatista communities that for decades have been a benchmark for other ways of living, health, education, justice, politics. We will not allow the extermination of indigenous peoples with the recurring excuse of development.

Lost, a 'deep' prompt if you have the time or interest: "Trick" for Will & Holly, lost love/love lasting beyond death, 'communication' from the other side. Thanks!

Dear Nonny, might not be exactly what you had in mind, but I hope you enjoy it anyway.

Game Night. 2/2 

[Part 1]  [Ao3]

Pairing: Will Burton (The Escape Artist) x Holly Shawcross (True Love)

Rating: Teen

Word count: 2.4k

Summary: Fluff and some angst. Will and Holly are part of a group of friends who meet every week to play board games.  Although there is more than friendship growing between them, their pasts prevent them from acting on their feelings. Until one week, they play with a Ouija board.

A/N: I also wrote a fem!Will x Holly : Sweater Weather. Some details might escape you if you haven’t seen the shows, but I think you can still enjoy the story.

○ Trick or treat prompts // All my autumn fics

CW: past death/grief (Will’s wife) 

🍂

The sky was a pink shade of gray, a reminder that the sun still existed despite the clouds. Sheets of rain slashed through beams of street light. Holly cracked opened a window to let the soothing sound and scent of rain permeate the air of her small flat. She wished for lightening and thunder.

This week, game night was at her home. Sometimes, work permitting, Will arrived early, under the pretense of helping her set up. “Setting up” usually involved folding out a card table at one end of her kitchen table for extra seating, and then just chatting until the others arrived. But she doubted he would come early tonight.

All week she’d waited for a text from Will, an apology or a simple “hello”, even a “sorry wrong person” would have soothed her worries. Holly herself had started typing more than one text she never sent. She shouldn’t have rushed out of his car, she should’ve stayed and pretended it was nothing but a joke. She didn’t want to lose him as a friend even if she longed for more.

She’d channeled her nervousness about game night into crafts: a garland of paper ghosts fashioned from the pages of an old book, a centerpiece of squashes and mini-pumpkins she had no intention of ever eating and charcoal sketches of creepy Victorian kids. She had to talk herself out of adopting a black cat; she could barely take care of herself let alone a pet.

She sat at her kitchen table and arranged the pretzel sticks, candy corn and Reese’s pieces into a pattern. She was so absorbed by her task, she jumped when someone knocked at the door. It was still early for the game, so it had to be Will. She sprung from her chair.

“Come in.”

Sabrina and Jerome came in. “Hope you don’t mind we’re a tad early, we dropped off the kids at a friend and it was closer than we thought.”

“Isn’t Will already here?” Jerome asked.

“I am.” Will peeked inside from around the door.

Jerome and Sabrina shuffled over to let him in without stepping off the door mat.

Holly waved at him shyly, he didn’t avoid her gaze which she supposed was a good sign. He even took his usual place next to her. She was dying to ask if he was pretending nothing had happened or had changed his mind about her. But she couldn’t ask in front of their friends, and her home was too small to find a private corner. Nevertheless, her mood increased tenfold, and by the time all seven of her friends had arrived, she was dancing on her chair to “Monster Mash”.

They alternated between playing Dungeons & Dragons one week and regular board games the other, either old ones they loved or new acquisitions. Today being Halloween, someone suggested they played with a Ouija board.

Some groaned, among them Patrick who preferred games like Risk and Settlers of Catan. “It’s not a game!” he argued.

“Back in the days, it was marketed as family entertainment,” Sabrina replied. “Parker Brothers distributed it.”

“C’mon just for a bit, just for laughs,” someone else enthused.

“Wait, let me set the mood,” Holly said.

She selected a Halloween playlist on her mobile. She brought her collection of candles to the table and closed the lights. The scent of burnt match and melted wax rose with the smoke.

There was a thrill in the air, they all exchanged glances and giggles. Everyone, except Will, wanted to put their fingers on the planchette. They tugged it this way and that, spelling swear words and booing like ghosts.

“Let’s do this seriously,” Jasna said. “Be silent.”

It took a moment, but everyone calmed down. Jasna cleared her throat and breathed in deeply. Holly snickered, and Jasna’s mouth twitched from repressed laughter.

“Alright.” She placed the planchette so the hole in it was positioned above the G. “I am trying to contact the spirit world.”

She had a deep voice for a woman and a Bosnian accent that lended a hint of mystery to her words.

First they moved the planchette across the board, anti-clockwise, to warm it up, then Jasna asked: “Are there any spirit in the room?”

The planchette moved to “yes”.

Holly’s hair stood on end. She bit the thumb nail of her free hand.

“How many spirits are in the room?”

Jasna closed her eyes. The planchette dragged down the board to the numbers.

One.

Two.

Everyone laughed, notes shrill with unease. It kept going. Three.

Four.

Five.

Sabrina gulped. Jerome looked over his shoulder.

Holly scooted closer to Will. She felt a prickled on the back of her neck. A candle flame flared up, and almost burnt her sleeve. “Fuck,” she whispered.

“What are your names?”

This time the planchette jerked to the letter “K”, zigzagged across the board as if wrestled over, then touched the “A”. Will dropped his hands. Then it pointed the “T”. When it moved towards the “E”, Will stood up, startling them all. He clenched his jaw and glared around the table, breathing fast through his nose. Then he just grabbed his coat and stormed out.

“Which one of you arsehole did that?” Holly asked.

They all exchanged suspicious looks but none dared admit culpability.

*

Will drove around aimlessly, swearing under his breath. His hands shook so he gripped the wheel tighter. His knuckles turned white.

How could his friends do that to him? With one joke they’d revived the ache in his chest, like taking a scalpel to a stitched wound.

Heavy rain blurred the traffic lights and road signs. He felt dizzy. He shouldn’t drive in this state. But he didn’t know where to go. He didn’t want to go home, Jamie was at a slumber party, all by himself he would just churn these dark thoughts in his head. Why was he so freaked out? Ghosts weren’t real.

Will slammed the breaks. His whole body jerked forward. The wheel stamped in his chest with a long honk. He’d nearly hit a pedestrian.

He parked the car on the side of the road. His heartbeat drummed in his ears. He rested his forehead on the wheel and took deep breaths.

It was only a joke. They didn’t not it would hurt so much. None of them had known Kate. None of them had seen the shell of a man he was after her death. None of them knew he’d murdered for her… In fact, he’d never told any of them about Kate at all. His blood ran cold. No, he’d told Holly, but he didn’t believe her capable of pulling such a cruel prank.

*

In Holly’s flat, candles were still burning but everyone had gone. She’d texted Will and rearranged the candies’ pattern while waiting for his reply.

Instead of texting her back, he showed up on her doorstep. His hair dripped with rain. He smelled of cigarette, so she knew the whole event had really unnerved him.

Without a word, he pulled out a chair and slouched on it.

“I’ll make you a cuppa,” she said softly.

She popped the kettle on and browsed her tea collection. She bought far more than she drank, she couldn’t resist a whimsical name– “Buddha’s blend” or “seaberry spa”. But tonight called for traditional English tea. She debated which cup to pick, yellow to cheer him up or green for hope. She chose one that said “you are deer to me” underlined by a set of antlers. He smiled at the pun, though very briefly.

Holly twirled the tea bag in her mug, watching the dark swirls it left in its wake. She did it with her left hand so the right one could rest on the table, close to Will’s.

The thunder she’d wished for began. Ominous rumbles, like a giant cracking his knuckles.

In the other room, the Halloween playlist ended, and an old jazz one started. Notes of saxophone and a lamenting blues voice travelled through the wall like something from the past.

“Did you tell them about my wife?” he asked.

“Of course not, you told me that in confidence. I think some reality show starlet called Kate died last week, that’s probably what that was about.”

He bit the inside of his cheek, nodding unconvincingly.

A lightning strike illuminated his face. He was looking at the Ouija board still on the table. Whoever had brought it over, hadn’t wanted it back.

“Do you want to try again?” she asked him.

He hesitated. “Do you believe in spirits, Holly?”

“I’m open to the idea.”

It was too romantic a notion for her to discard entirely, the possibility of a connexion beyond death.

Will picked up the game, and they settled in the living room. They sat on the shaggy carpet, their backs against the couch and placed the board on the coffee table.

Will shook his hands, clenched and unclenched his fists. She wanted to pat his shoulder or rub his back, something to comfort and reassure him, but she couldn’t help thinking that if Kate’s ghost was still around, she wouldn’t like Holly touching her husband.

They placed their fingertips lightly upon the planchette. There were no giggles or joking around like earlier. Her stomach was heavy, her mouth dry.

“Kate, are you still here?” he asked.

Thunder answered him.

They waited. One minute. Two minutes.

“Kate?” he asked again with a tremor in his voice.

The planchette didn’t move.

Will sighed and leaned back against the couch.

“Are you disappointed?” she asked him.

“I don’t know… I’m relieved, I think.”

“Relieved?”

He rubbed the back of his neck. “The reason I freaked out so much is that I’ve been thinking about Kate a lot lately. More than usual, I mean.”

“Oh.”

“I wonder what she would think. I wonder– I’m afraid it would make her sad that there’s someone else in my life.”

“You met someone?”

His meaning didn’t dawn on her until she met his gaze, his eyebrows slightly arched, his front teeth in his bottom lip.

“Me?”

“Aye. You’ve become important to me. Holly.”

Holly hid her blushing face against the couch cushion, peering sideways. She touched the tips of his fingers, and he slouched down so his face was closer to hers.

“You’re important to me too. I like you a lot.”

He smiled, a wide grin, thin lines fanned out from the corners of his eyes. The kind of smile that can only come from the happiness and heady relief to know one’s feelings are returned. A smile that mirrored her own.

She felt like her heart was glowing. She wanted to kiss him, right then and there, but he had more to say about his late wife.

He entwined their fingers and gathered his thoughts.

“I don’t want someone to replace Kate,” he said. “She used to say my brain was full of holes, but sometimes it feels like it’s my heart that’s full of holes.”

Holly touched his chest, and he placed his hand over hers.

“She’s still in there, but I need someone who is really here. Someone whose voice I can hear. Someone I can touch.”

Holly might have wondered if she could stand sharing his heart with a ghost, but he grazed her cheek with the back of his fingers, lightly, hesitantly, and she melted on the spot. She leaned into his touch, and he cupped her face firmly this time. His long fingers cradled her jaw, his thumb stroke her cheekbone, his gaze dropped to her lips.

“Oh, Will…”

A window flew open, wind toppled a pencil holder and scattered a stack of art prints across the floor.

Will jerked his head back, and Holly yelped. Her hand flew to her chest where he heart raced.

He closed the window while she collected the fallen items with shaky hands. She turned on all the lights in the room.

“That scared me half to death,” Holly said.

“Maybe it was Kate’s ghost.”

“Don’t even joke about this,” she said good-naturedly. She elbowed him lightly in the ribs.

They sat on her overstuffed sofa, it dipped in the middle, bringing them closer.

“Holly, are you all right with this?”

She rubbed her thumb in her palm. In a way, a widower was an improvement on a married man, and even on a divorcee.

“I have my own baggage,” she said carefully. “So I don’t know how it will go. But I feel so close to you, you know?”

“I know.”

“If you like, how come you reacted that way last week, when I took off my shirt?”

“You caught me by surprise!” His voice hitched an octave.

“Yeah, I don’t know what I was thinking.” She bit her bottom lip.

“I have to say, I admire your boldness.”

“Yeah? Would you like a do-over?”

“You mean…?

“I’ll take off my jumper again, and you make sure you have a better reaction.”

“Okay.”

“D’you need a minute to think about it?”

“Aye.”

She worked hard to hold back a grin when his brow furrowed in concentration. He signaled with a nod that she could go ahead. Holly rose to her knees and grabbed the hem of her sweater, displaying more confidence than she felt.

“Sod it,” Will mumbled before lunging for a kiss before she’d pulled it off completely.

Holly laughed against his mouth, but he pressed on. There was an anxiety to it, as if he might lose his nerve any second. His back muscles were rigid under her fingers. She moved her lips slowly as she rubbed up and down his spine.

The moment he truly yielded to his feelings, his weight pressed against her, and they fell back on the couch, mouths still locked.

His lips were eager, his hands roamed her stomach. He kissed down her neck as her legs cradled his narrow hips.

He broke the kiss to look at her. His eyes were bright, his hair a dishevelled.

“Much better reaction,” she said with a laugh.

He pecked her lips, then rested his head on her chest. She stroke his hair as he hugged her tight.

He stayed all night.

They marathoned classic black and white horror movies. Bela Lugosi grunted and Vincent Price laughed maniacally, as Will and Holly ate all the candies. They kissed too many times to keep up with the plots, and talked about everything long past midnight, never breaking physical contact. A happy tangle of limbs. They had so much to discover about the other now that they weren’t trying to hide their feelings.

They fell asleep in the wee hours, and Will’s phone alarm woke him up not much later.

“Don’t go,” Holly mumbled, clinging to his warm body.

He allowed himself two more snoozes before separating from her.

“I’ll see you soon,” he said, and kissed her head.

Despite the lack of sleep, he felt renewed. His patched-up heart beat more freely.

On his phone, he had several texts and voicemails from his concerned friends. He couldn’t hold a grudge for long given their prank had lead to finally kissing Holly.

On the way to his car, he whistled an old jazz song. But as he put his hands in his pockets, he found a green apple he didn’t remember putting there.

Spider Bags — Someday Everything Will Be Fine (Merge)

Photo by Alex Boerner

The Spider Bags’ fifth full-length kicks off with a big Mats-ish blast of guitar, a rumble of bass, a frantic scramble of drums and the reedy croon of front man Dan McGee confessing his shortcomings. The song, “Reckless,” is pretty close to all riff, all sweat and louche bravado. It’s full of an anti-hero swagger that turns personal failings into points of stubborn pride; when McGee says he’s got nothing to lose, the “loo-ooo-ooo-se” part is so lovingly, elongatedly delivered, that it becomes a jiu jitsu boast.  The triumph of losers, the giddy celebration of dead ends — it’s an integral part of the rock and roll canon, and the Spider Bags accomplish it with shaggy flair.  

The line-up for Someday Everything Will Be Fine is more or less than same as ever, with McGee up front and Rock Forbes on drums, Steve Oliva on bass and Gregg Levy on lead guitar. Guest artists come partly from the Memphis punk soul scene – Jack Oblivian and John Whittemore of Jack O and the Tennessee Tearjerkers guest on a couple of songs, and Memphis Dawls’ Jana Misener and Krista Wroten-Combest sing back up and play some strings. The similarly strung out country punk poets of the Golden Boys are represented by Matt Hoopengardner, while Patrick Stickles from Titus Andronicus (who Spider Bags are touring with) stands in for the rawer, rocker end of the indie spectrum.

It all makes for a tumultuous, loosely organized but deeply felt racket, heavy on the guitars but with plenty of space for striking lines of poetry. For instance, even amid the barn-burning mayhem of “Oxcart Blues,” there is room for this surrealist stanza:

“I danced all night in a prison of my own invention

The guards were the difference between wrong and right

And the bars were good intentions, no the bars are all filled with good intentions.”

Note the sharp swerve in imagery from prison bars to drinking bars, a nice enough double image for a chapbook, but here framed by giant blistering power chords and the pummeling one-two assault of punk drums.

It’s less surprising to find strong lyrics in “My Heart Is a Flame in Reverse,”  a loose and drunken country waltz of the type that often tends to arresting lines. And sure enough here is the arresting imagery from the first lines, “He met a girl with a pentagram, tattooed on her neck/and she knew automatically, magically, that they were connected until death/and they danced in a room that was void of regret/on a day off just south of Jose.”  Nice.

Yes, but, you’re saying, this isn’t English class. Never mind the poetry. Does it rock?  And indeed it does, from the short, sharp, country-shocked Ramones blast of “Tonight, I Walk on the Water” to the roughshod two-step of “Ninety Day Dog,” to the drum-rampaging “Cop Dream/Black Eye” which is sort of like what might happen if Minor Threat played a hillbilly bar. There are a couple covers, “Alligator” from a North Carolina fellow-traveller named Joel Plunket who plays with The Weight, and, more splendidly, “Rollin’ with the Flow,” a song made famous by Charlie Rich (and also later covered by Mark Chestnutt). 

This latter track comes last on the album and is stuffed to the gills with blaring, dissonant guitars, bar-room piano twinkle and surging, swelling, almost-sentimental strings. There’s a gospel uplift to the song which vies manfully against an unchurchly message about skipping out on the kids. The whole thing gets sucked into a vortex of guitar noise chaos towards the end, which is, perhaps, what happens with you roll with the flow. Yet it’s a fitting ending, for an album that is bruised, broken but smiling, slack-handed but ambitious and comfortable, maybe even proud, of its own moral failings. Someday Everything Will Be Fine is a wrecked and wreckless antidote to a world that most definitely is not.

Senior centers grapple with bullying issues

Sara Dhamija, right, listens to a teacher during an anti-bullying class at the 30th Street Senior Center in San Francisco, April 13, 2018.  (Associated Press) SAN FRANCISCO –  The unwanted were turned away from cafeteria tables. Fistfights broke out at karaoke. Dances became breeding grounds for gossip and cruelty. It became clear this place had a bullying problem on its hands. What many found surprising was that the perpetrators and victims alike were all senior citizens. Nursing homes, senior centers and housing complexes for the elderly have introduced programs, training and policies aimed at curbing spates of bullying, an issue once thought the exclusive domain of the young. "There's the clique system just like everywhere else," said Betsy Gran, who until recently was assistant director at San Francisco's 30th Street Senior Center. "It's like 'Mean Girls,' but everyone is 80." "There's the clique system just like everywhere else. It's like 'Mean Girls,' but everyone is 80." - Betsy Gran, former assistant director of a senior center After the cafeteria exiles and karaoke brouhahas, the 30th Street Center teamed up with a local nonprofit, the Institute on Aging, to develop an anti-bullying program. All staff members received 18 hours of training that included lessons on what constitutes bullying, causes of the problem and how to manage such conflicts. Seniors were then invited to similar classes, held in English and Spanish, teaching them to alert staff or intervene themselves if they witness bullying. Signs and even place mats around the center now declare it a "Bully Free Zone." "I think in the past I would have just stayed out of it," said Mary Murphy, 86, a retired real estate agent who took the classes. "Now I might be inclined to help." Robin Bonifas, a social work professor at Arizona State University and author of the book "Bullying Among Older Adults: How to Recognize and Address an Unseen Epidemic," said existing studies suggest about 1 in 5 seniors encounters bullying. She sees it as an outgrowth of frustrations characteristic in communal settings, as well a reflection of issues unique to getting older. Many elderly see their independence and sense of control disappear and, for some, becoming a bully can feel like regaining some of that lost power. "It makes them feel very out of control," Bonifas said, "and the way they sort of get on top of things and make their name in this new world is intimidating, picking on people, gossiping."

Patrick Arbore, left, talks to Corazon Leano as he conducts an anti-bullying class at the 30th Street Senior Center in San Francisco, April 13, 2018.  (Associated Press) There is far less recognition of bullying as a problem among seniors compared with young people. Even among those who have been called bullies, many are unaware how problematic their behavior is until it's labeled. Campaigns around the country have sought to spread the word, including a booklet circulated last year by the National Center for Assisted Living. "In the life cycle, it doesn't go away," said Katherine Arnold, a member of the city Human Rights Commission in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, which created a public service announcement on its community-access station that included a portrayal of a man who was excluded from a card game and became the subject of gossip by other seniors. "There's really not a lot of escape." Most senior bullying isn't physical but rather involves name-calling, rumors and exclusion, said Pamela Countouris, a longtime schoolteacher who now runs a Pittsburgh-based consultancy that offers training on bullying. Women constitute the bulk of the bullies Countouris encounters among seniors, a reflection of lifespan disparities and the gender makeup of those who live at or participate in programs at senior facilities. Countouris' business began with a focus on school bullying but now centers exclusively on seniors. In the next month alone, she has more than a dozen training sessions planned. After four years immersed in the wrath of older bullies, Countouris has heard all manner of stories. At a senior high-rise, a woman who saw herself as the queen of the parking garage would key the cars of those who crossed her. Elsewhere, laundry rooms became vicious places where the bullied had their detergent stolen and their clothes thrown on the floor. Bingo rooms so often devolved into battlefields — with lucky newcomers badgered and accused of cheating by veteran players — she came to call it "the devil's game." "I didn't realize it was an underground society where people could be mean to each other," Countouris said. "I didn't realize it was an underground society where people could be mean to each other." - Pamela Countouris, consultant on bullying issues In the worst cases, bullying goes far beyond bingo squabbles. Marsha Wetzel moved into a senior apartment complex in Niles, Illinois, after her partner of 30 years died and her partner's family evicted her from the home the couple shared. At Glen St. Andrew Living Community, she said she was met with relentless bullying by residents mostly focused on her being a lesbian. One man hit Wetzel's scooter with his walker and unleashed a barrage of homophobic slurs. A woman rammed her wheelchair into Wetzel's table in the dining room and knocked it over, warning "homosexuals will burn in hell." In the mailroom, someone knocked her in the head, and in an elevator, she was spit on. "I'd just go in my room and barricade my door and just pray," said Wetzel, now 70 and living at a senior complex in Chicago. "I just felt like a slug, like I was nothing, like I wasn't even human."

Two women talk in front of anti-bullying signs at the 30th Street Senior Center in San Francisco, April 13, 2018.  (Associated Press) Lambda Legal, which defends LGBTQ rights, took on Wetzel's case and sued Glen St. Andrew, claiming Fair Housing Act violations. A federal judge dismissed the suit last year. An appeals court decision is pending. Wetzel had seen such bullying throughout her life. She dropped out of high school when she became a punching bag for the girls who learned she was a lesbian. As a senior, she said, it felt even more traumatic — and the bullies even more vicious. She had a view of a cemetery from her window and would stare at it, thinking maybe only when she arrived there would she find peace. "I felt like a person in a pool of piranhas," she said.

'Marvel Universe LIVE!' 2017 Age of Heroes Review: What It's Like to Fight a Superhero

'Marvel Universe LIVE!' 2017 Age of Heroes Review: What It's Like to Fight a Superhero

An intrepid reporter goes behind-the-scenes of the new ‘Marvel Universe LIVE! Age of Heroes’ for battle tips from The Wasp and Spider-Man.

I fought a superhero and still have the bruises to show for it.

I was among a small group of reporters who recently paid a behind-the-scenes visit to downtown Los Angeles’ new stageshow Marvel Universe LIVE! Age of Heroes, which opens Friday at the Staples Center. (Luckily, icepacks and foam rollers were onhand.)

Forget New York, Marvel heroes have descended upon Downtown Los Angeles.

The new show boasts nearly 50 performers and familiar heroes such as Captain America, Black Widow, Spider-Man, Hulk, Thor as well as villains Loki and the Chitauri and quasi-baddie Nebula, all of which are masters at tumbling, fighting and leaping through the air with the (seemingly) the greatest of ease. The moves, of which there are many, are meticulously choregraphed and feature a blend of martial arts, parkour, dance, aerial acrobatics, tumbling and traditional gymnastics, with a bit of pyrotechnics and motorcycles thrown in for good measure. 

Backstage, on a big blue mat that is slightly harder than it first appears, performers who play The Wasp, Spidey and a few Ravagers demonstrated their impressive fight choreography. Next was my turn. After a (too) quick demonstration on how to block a punch, I was thrust into hand-to-hand combat with a superhero who was kind enough to pretend I could beat him up, and even offered a few pointers on how to strike the most triumphant victory pose.

As for the stage itself, state-of-the-art technology is utilized to transform the trampoline-laden stage into a variety of familiar tableus across the Marvel Universe. Stark Tower in New York gives way to Ravager spaceships from Guardians of the Galaxy and the mystical city of K’un-Lun from Iron Fist. Using infrared motion-capture tech the gray, multi-leveled stage acts as a screen for overhead projectors to create the vivid backdrops for the performers, as well as pinpoint the actors’ spotlights to follow key moments and actions around the stage as performers duke it out with high-flying flips, kicks and tricks. 

The show’s premiere this weekend marks the culmination of a grueling eight-week rehearsal schedule for the actors. Coming from an eclectic mix of backgrounds, including traditional gymnastics, martial arts, dance and parkour, the performers were required to stretch outside their comfort zone to learn the variety of choreography, tumbling and acrobatic techniques the show demands. From aerialists suspended 40-50 feet above the Staples Center floor to motorcyclists launching off of ramps to actors launching their bodies off trampolines and propelling headlong over waist-high set pieces, the toll on performers’ joints is no joke — particularly given the number of shows slated over the show’s planned 18-month run. 

Luckily, a personal trainer and masseuses are on retainer. Even superheroes need a recuperation period, after all.

Throughout my time walking through the stage, my guide hardly paused his explanation as he flew over barrels, performed back handsprings and demonstrated Kong Vaults mid-sentence, all while I giggled, gobsmacked, at the ease with which he handled such feats. I later tripped over a cupholder while walking through the empty auditorium.

Naturally, leaping and soaring through the air not only has an effect on the actors’ bodies, but also on their costumes. Marvel Universe LIVE!’s costume department prepared more than 150 different costumes for the show, each specifically designed with motion and durability in mind. Using strong, yet flexible, fabrics, the designers created colorful pieces that breathe and allow performers the range of motion required for even the most taxing of stunts. Due to the pyrotechnics involved in the show, the suits were also doused in flame retardant to prevent Spidey from becoming the Human Torch. 

I happened to try on one of the fire drummer’s helmets and was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable it was, though without pounding flaming sticks on a percussive instrument my opinion may not be accurate.

Finally, no Marvel experience would be complete without trying one’s hand at lifting Thor’s mighty hammer (or Mjolnir for those in-the-know). Having just gotten fighting lessons from Spider-Man and the Wasp and literally kicking the butt of a Ravager, I felt confident. Wrapping my hands around the Mjolnir’s handle, I felt its sturdy weight and was resolute in my ability to wield it, Hemsworth be damned. Straining, I pulled with all might but the magnet held firm. Redoubling my efforts, and with my best Norse yell, I managed to free the almighty hammer from its resting place and weild aloft my head like the god of thunder — then it got heavy and I quickly dropped it back onto its pedestal. Being a hero is hard and Old Spice only makes anti-perspirant so powerful.

Spent my morning becoming Thor. #MarvelUniverseLive pic.twitter.com/h0FjyUD7VO
