(2009.6)187:4.7 Just after the repentant thief heard the Master’s promise that they should sometime meet in Paradise, John returned from the city, bringing with him his mother and a company of almost a dozen women believers. John took up his position near Mary the mother of Jesus, supporting her. Her son Jude stood on the other side. As Jesus looked down upon this scene, it was noontide, and he said to his mother, “Woman, behold your son!” And speaking to John, he said, “My son, behold your mother!” And then he addressed them both, saying, “Idesire that you depart from this place.” And so John and Jude led Mary away from Golgotha. John took the mother of Jesus to the place where he tarried in Jerusalem and then hastened back to the scene of the crucifixion. After the Passover Mary returned to Bethsaida, where she lived at John’s home for the rest of her natural life. Mary did not live quite one year after the death of Jesus.
(2010.1)187:4.8 After Mary left, the other women withdrew for a short distance and remained in attendance upon Jesus until he expired on the cross, and they were yet standing by when the body of the Master was taken down for burial.

Female Graduate Student Bribed 70 Year Old Professor with Sex for PhD admission
Central Conservatory of Music (the national leading musical institution in Beijing, China This is their website) 70 year old doctoral advisor professor Liang Maocun (梁茂春) had sexual relations with Shenyang Conservatory of Music MS Graduate (class of 2003) Zou Jiahong (邹佳宏). He also accepted 100,000 yuan in bribe from her in order to “help” her to be admitted to the PhD program in CCOM. This is recently exposed so called “Exam Gate” incident.
Professor Liang has already turned himself in to the school’s disciplinary department, stating he had physical relationship with female student Zou Jiahong that is beyond a relationship between a teacher and a student. He also admitted that he accepted 100,000 yuan as bribe. Itwas understood that in order for Zou to be admitted to the PhD program, she gave 50,000 to Professor Liang as learning fee, and 50,000 yuan as other costs. She also promised that once she is receives the admission that 50,000 yuan will be sent to the professor as cost of living. But in the end Zou Jiahong still was not admitted to the PhD program. In May of 2009, Central Conservatory of Music announced final scores and admissions and Zou did not get in. She then came to the school looking for Professor Liang throwing a fit. According to the school professor Liang thought school would eventually find out, and felt helpless. So he took the initiative, went to the school and confessed everything. During the confession

World's weakest currencies
Bruce Einhorn, BusinessWeek | November 14, 2008
F rom the Arctic coasts of Iceland to the Southern Ocean shores of New Zealand, the financial crisis has humbled many of the world's currencies.
As risk-averse investors have rediscovered the US dollar, they have swiftly pounded down currencies that until recently had been highfliers.
Especially hard-hit have been countries such as Australia and South Africa with large mining industries, as slower economic growth has popped what had been a steadily inflating resources bubble.

Luxury Real Estate Marketing Tip: Pick Your Niche Wisely!
Identifying an undeserved or uncontested market niche, then dominating that category is the fastest route to market leadership in the field of luxury real estate marketing or any field of business for that matter. To be successful in your chosen category, however, it must be a category that you or your company, can serve better than anyone else.

SOUTHAVEN, Miss. — President Donald Trump on Tuesday repeatedly mocked Christine Blasey Ford, who accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her when they were teenagers, despite having said just days ago that he found her Senate testimony last week "very credible."
In a one-man reenactment of Ford's appearance before the Judiciary Committee, with his voice alternating between an impression of her and of her inquisitor, Trump challenged the veracity of the testimony that paused his nominee's confirmation.
The extended ridicule of Ford, delivered at the Landers Arena in deeply conservative DeSoto County, stood in stark contrast to the respectful way in which Trump and his aides had previously treated her testimony, even

If he was as frustrated as she was, then Kagome was quite positive that Inuyasha would participate in her little game.
All this time, Inuyasha hadn't moved from his place under the fall and Kagome easily glided through the water toward him, the water cool and refreshing against her bare skin. No wonder Inuyasha had gone here. It was quiet, isolated and provided a sense of peace that was rare here in the feudal era.
Finally reaching the oblivious human, her heart thudding against her breast, Kagome slipped her arms around him and pressed her palms flat against his barechest and at once Inuyasha stiffened, his head jerking up. Before he had a chance to do anything, Kagome plastered herself against his back, leaned up and breathed a single word against his ear.
"…Marco."
Then she released him and pushed herself back through the water, a secret little smile gracing her features as she waited for his reaction.
Still as stone, Inuyasha stared wide eyed straight ahead of him, his skin tingling from where delicate hands had been pressed only seconds before. Kagome. Kagome was back from her time. When did she get back? And why the hell was she naked in the water with him? Not that he was complaining, however; Kagome in the buff was a damned site to see. A very good one, at that. But…why had

Progressives hoping Turner runs for office in 2018 will have to wait and see. But she’s certainly keeping busy as a “Fighter for the People… Wife, Mother, Sister, College Professor, Motivator-In-Chief,” according to her Twitter bio. She’s also one of the 11 Sanders surrogates on the board of directors of Our Revolution, which carries on “the revolution” started by Sanders by supporting progressive candidates and causes.
With the election of the next Democratic National Committee chair less than a week away, Senator Turner’s voice is more urgent than ever. As I wrote before, this election is a proxy battle for the heart and soul of the Party.

what they don't understand they must declare a fraud, especially if it conflicts with what they believe to be the unalterable laws of science.
One of the common approaches to dethroning a truth is to propose an alternative 'truth' of their own which, in addition to opposing the original idea, often increases his or her stature and income. Unfortunately such hypotheses themselves often violate the laws of science, as well as those of logic and reason. The known facts have to be stretched and distorted to fit each new theory, until it becomes more impossible to believe than the simple truth.
After a brief flash of fame, interest in Pia's photograph faded. It did little to affect those who believed it was real and nothing to change the thinking ofclean clothes, allowed her to shower, and put her in a van that would take her to court.
Dr. Faez had hired a defense lawyer, the best in Cairo, to represent her. The prosecuting attorney read her testimony to the police the night of the murder, then read the charges against her: Enticing a rich Arab prince into her apartment with the purpose of robbing him. When he held up a poker to defend himself from her she somehow wrested it away from him and killed him. Then tore her clothes to make it look like rape.
Helen's heart sank when she heard this. It was only the two of them in the room and the prosecution's version sounded just as likely as what really happened. With no other witnesses

Overview
Brooking: Korea experience 'vital'
(FIFA.com) Tuesday 4 September 2007
Share
Sitting back in an armchair, his hands crossed and resting on
his stomach, Sir Trevor Brooking might justifiably be considered a
fairly relaxed individual. Ask him a few questions, however, and
his passion for the game, and particularly English football shines
through. And why not? As a talented midfielder, he made 47
appearances for the Three Lions, scoring five goals in the process.
His entire career was also spent at just one club, his beloved West
Ham United, where he spent 19 years.
Now the FA's Director for Development, it is the
57-year-old's remit to lead a programme of skills development
which makes English clubs look locally first when searching for
talented and technically accomplished players. Brooking was an
interested spectator at several England matches during the FIFA
U-17 WorldCup, as products of the nation's academy system were
on display against the world's top teams. His verdict proved
interesting and enlightening.
FIFA.com: Sir Trevor, how do you assess the importance of
competitions such as the FIFA U-17 World Cup in the development of
young footballers?
Sir Trevor Brooking: It's vital. The experience
of playing in different climatic conditions, against new opposition
and getting to grips with travelling and other cultures is great
for boys at this age. For the coaches too, it's interesting to
see who reacts well to being away from home, who the characters in
the squad are, who is a team player, etc, etc. In many ways, the
backroom staff learn just as much as the players themselves. That
can only be a good thing.
What do you think the players have learned in Korea?

parties in Syria also condemned the Turkish operation on Friday. In a joint statement, they called for a complete withdrawal of all Turkish forces from the country and accused Ankara of trying to occupy Syria under the pretence of fighting terrorism.
Turkish military vehicles shuttled in and out of Syria on Friday, Reuters witnesses said, including a construction machine that helped flatten the route for a tank. Controlled explosions rang out around the Karkamis border crossing as Turkish security forces removed mines and booby traps left by Islamic State.
Ismail Metin, the commander of Turkey’s second army responsible for the borders with Syria and Iraq, visited Jarablus on Friday, local sources said.

Syria’s war has killed at least a quarter of a million people and forced almost five million to flee the country, many of them to Turkey. The United Nations estimates that 6.5 million are internally displaced.
An agreement was reached on Thursday to evacuate around 4,000 civilians and 700 fighters from the besieged Damascus suburb of Daraya, ending one of the conflict’s longest stand-offs. Syrian Arab Red Crescent (SARC) vehicles entered the area to prepare for the evacuation on Friday.
Syria’s army has surrounded rebels and civilians and blocked food deliveries in Daraya since 2012, regularly bombing the area, one of the first places to see peaceful protests against President Bashar al-Assad.

"Both Afghan leaders, including the governor of Sangin, and the US Marines have publicly recognised and paid tribute to the sacrifice and achievements of the UK forces in that area."
A Pentagon spokesman said the contribution and sacrifice of UK troops during the war in Afghanistan were "certainly recognised and appreciated" in the US.
"Marine commanders on the ground in Afghanistan have publicly recognised that British forces did an excellent job in Sangin, an area which has been and continues to be uniquely challenging," he said.
Meanwhile, former Defence Secretary Geoff Hoon revealed he had written a paper at the time of the Helmand deployment - which took place under his successor John Reid - raising concerns about the manpower available for the operation.
Mr Hoon told the Times that his paperbuffer zone between Greek and Turkish Cyprus, has given rise to parallel worlds.
The atmosphere at the fault line in Nicosia, as it’s known on the Greek side, or Lefkoşa on the Turkish side, is far more relaxed than in decades past, but it still jars the senses. Even more bizarre, the border checkpoint is now a tourist attraction.
Nicosia is the capital of a European Union member state, while Lefkoşa is the government seat of the self-declared Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, recognized only by Ankara.

The backstory is equally complex. The country’s newly won independence as a republic in 1960 was fraught from the start. In July 1974, Greece’s ruling military junta, fearing Cyprus might lean toward communism, staged a bloody coup (backed by the CIA) in

And in the end, he was proven wrong. Nothing he did helped, and Simon was able to push back the moon after all.
Quote:
Rossiu knows he screwed up, and it all wouldn't have happened if he didn't decide Simon need a death sentence for Rossiu's personal greed and hatred.
He screwed up, yes. But I think his motivations had more to do with hubris, fear, and lack of faith in hot blood.
Rossiu came across as a person that got tired of how things were done and wanted to implement his own ideals. We will know (hopefully) next eps what were his intentions. He was still pragmatic to a degree because he did hand back the core drillstay in prison until everything is over.
Yeah. That's what I've been trying to say.

It is almost like Rossiu feels inadequate next to Simon amd wanted his way to be right no matter the cost.
His worldview was turned upside down. It's normal to be upset.
Quote:
Rossiu seemed serious to me. After all he was willing to strap a bomb on Kinon to prevent Simon from escaping.
He didn't want Simon running around like a loose canon. Or even being a martyr

LUMBERTON – A mother was charged after she passed out on top of her 13-month-old son, who died from apparent suffocation, authorities said.
Antoinette King, 33, was revived by Narcan but her son, Jerimiah, could not be revived after the incident at their Dove Court home, the Burlington County Prosecutor's Office said Sunday.
A relative inside the home called for help around 8:30 p.m. Saturday after finding the mother lying on the toddler, the prosecutor's office said.
The mother and son were taken to Virtua Memorial Hospital in Mount Holly, where the boy was pronounced dead.
An autopsy will be conducted by Burlington County Medical Examiner Dr. Ian Hood.
Authorities have not yet determined if the mother was overdosing on drugs at the time.
"The investigation is continuing," the prosecutor's office said.
King was chargedof the far-right Svoboda party as the US ambassador haggled with the state department over who would make up the new Ukrainian government. When the Ukrainian president was replaced by a US-selected administration, in an entirely unconstitutional takeover, politicians such as William Hague brazenly misled parliament about the legality of what had taken place: the imposition of a pro-western government on Russia’s most neuralgic and politically divided neighbour. Putin bit back, taking a leaf out of the US street-protest playbook – even though, as in Kiev, the protests that spread from Crimea to eastern Ukraine evidently have mass support. But what had been a glorious cry for freedom in Kiev became infiltration and insatiable aggression in Sevastopol and Luhansk. After Crimeans voted overwhelmingly to join Russia, the bulk

that anyway. The way the youngster acted in the dressing room, you’d think he was making his 500th appearance for Manchester United, not his first. While those around him displayed pre-match nerves in their own ways – Sadler in and out of the toilet, Nobby Stiles obsessively checking and re-checking his kit, Charlton having a nip of whisky – George just sat and read the programme… before disappearing out for a cup of tea until just before kick-off.
That was how it would be for Best throughout his career – he was nerveless. The prospect of running out in front of 50,000 people to play football caused him not one jot of consternation, first time or not. Emerging from the tunnel into the view of the teeming masses, infact, was a major rush for George – it emboldened and excited him, rather than overwhelming him.
Next: "I remember thinking to myself, ‘Georgie boy, you’ve got nothing to worry about’"
Into battle
With United and Albion both having made fast starts to the season, the game was a top-vs-second clash. Best was to be up against Graham Williams, a square-shouldered left-back often now described as the Stuart Pearce of his day. George’s team-mates had been telling him all about his opposite number in the build-up, painting a fearsome picture.
In one of his numerous autobiographies, Best of Both Worlds, George recalls: “Out on the pitch I scanned the opposition for a glimpse of this character Williams, the man they said carried a club in either foot. I was also looking for

use of artillery and air power by Assad's forces and regular bombings against symbols of his authority in Syria's main cities.
A car bomb killed 13 people in central Damascus on Sunday as President Bashar al-Assad told an international mediator seeking a truce in Syria's civil war that the key to any political solution was to stop arming rebels.
The bomb exploded outside a police station in the mainly Christian central Bab Touma district of the capital while Assad held talks with United Nations-Arab League envoy Lakhdar Brahimi, who is pushing for a temporary ceasefire to mark the Islamic festival of Eid al-Adha.
Speaking after his meeting with Assad, Brahimi gave few details of the talks but reiterated his call for a pause in the violence, which activists say has killedmore than 30,000 people since the uprising against Assad erupted in March last year.
The violence has spread across Syria's frontiers. Assad's forces exchanged cross-border artillery fire with Turkey several times this month and on Friday (October 19) a huge car bomb in Beirut killed a top intelligence official whose investigations had implicated Syria in trying to stoke violence on Lebanese soil.

from the founding of the country. Where else are you going to quarter soldiers other than bases, since we've obviously (and correctly) prevented them from being quartered in private homes?
The First American Regiment, later called the the 1st Infantry Regiment, now called the 3rd Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard), was founded in 1784 and obviously lasted through the Confederation and then the United States under the Constitution.
Still it must be pointed out that even though we always had at least some standing Federal force, it is historical that there was great distrust of standing armies at the time of the founding of the US, and that same distrust has had an effect on all sorts of decisions, from heavy use of the National Guard, to the fact thatand a rapid dropoff in military spending immediately following. WWII broke this trend and we have yet to return to comparable military spending as in the interwar period.
As sibling states, there has been a standing Army of whatever counts as the "government" of the "United States" since 1775. I use the quotes because of course the Continental Congress was only nominally a government until after the end of the Revolution, and they didn't call themselves the United States until later, but where ever you count the "founding" of the country (unless you consider the "founding" to be the battles of Lexington and Concorde) there has pretty much always been a standing Army.

flying around the room, and groping each other in the dark.
“Les Enfants Terribles” tells the story of two orphans, Elizabeth and Paul, who are brought to life by senior singers of the Eastman School of Music, Nicole Minielli and Adam Wells. While Elizabeth looks after her bedridden mother, Paul is obsessed with a school crush, Dargelos, until she throws a snowball containing a sharp stone at his chest.

Pedro Pascal is the latest name attached to one of Disney's planned 'Star Wars' television series. According to Variety, the actor best known for his turn as Oberyn Martell on Game of Thrones will play the lead in the upcoming series The Mandalorian.
It seems like Disney is bringing back some of the dusty, run-down frontier vibes of the original trilogy in their latest outing. The Manadalorian will take place in the far reaches of the Galaxy, documenting the tales of a gunfighter well outside the reach of the New Republic's authority. It

Little Georgetown (Fayette County, KY)
Located on Parkers Mill Road in Fayette County, one version of the community's beginning states that a George Waltz gave land to ex-slaves following the Civil War. It has been debated as to whether the community was named after George Waltz or after a freeman named George Washington who owned a portion of the land and divided it into lots in 1877. At that time,the community had three other African American land owners: F. Smith, J. Edmunds, and M. Overstreet. The word "Little" was added to the name of the community to differentiate it from the city of Georgetown, KY. Over the years, Little Georgetown grew to include 90 residents on 34 acres. The expansion of the Lexington Bluegrass Airport nearly wiped out the community. A picture of the Little Georgetown Colored School, dated 1929, is available in the Kentucky Digital Library - Images.

professor in a computer science department for a lower-status job (tutoring faculty at another university) that allowed her more one-on-one engagement with people. Pinker explains, "Donna decided to opt for what was meaningful for her over status and money."
Like you, I don't want kids. (I describe them as "loud, sticky, and expensive.") However, Pinker notes that there's "plenty of evidence that many more women than men" -- including women at the top of their game -- put family before career advancement. She tracked down "Elaine," the author of an op-ed titled "My glass ceiling is self-imposed," about why she'd declined a promotion that would have put her third from the top in a company with 12,000-plus employees in more than 60 countries.
The president of the company was dumbfounded.the American cultural ethos. With spanking as with guns, football, the military, and comic book super heroes: America, born in war, has an ongoing romance with violence. The trenchant Christian dogma viewing children as wild sinful creatures whose will must be broken into obedience through instilling fear is undoubtedly another culprit. However, several psychological reasons can also be offered for the practice's continued popularity.
First, in the parent-child equation, the parents have the power. The powerful in a given situation seldom see their behavior in that situation as the problem. It's not easy for those whose solution is to inflict pain to see pain as a problem. The axe forgets, goes the proverb, only the tree remembers.
Second, spanking often looks like it's working. Indeed, according to research, parents who

West Ham United's October fixture changes have been confirmed, with two of their Premier League games being chosen for live broadcast.
The Hammers' home meeting with Crystal Palace will remain on Saturday 5 October, but will now kick-off at 5.30pm live on Sky Sports.
West Ham will be looking to extend their excellent recent record against the Eagles, having not lost any of the last eight meetings between the teams.
Meanwhile, the trip to Everton now has a 12.30pm kick-off on Saturday 19 October, and will be shown live on BT Sport.
Goodison Park was the scene of Manuel Pellegrini's first victory as Hammers boss last term and he will be eyeing a repeat of that success.
In August and September, the Hammers' fixtures against Manchester City, Aston Villa and Manchester United willin North America. The latter is believed to have been the ancestor of all stegosaurs and ankylosaurs. The Middle Jurassic is the only poorly represented time period in North America, although several Middle Jurassic localities are known from Mexico. Footprints, eggshells, teeth, and fragments of bone representing theropods, sauropods, and ornithopods have been found, but none of them are diagnostic to the genus level.
The Late Jurassic of North America, however, is the exact opposite of the Middle Jurassic. The Late Jurassic Morrison Formation is found in several U.S. states, including Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Montana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Texas. It is notable as being the most fertile single source of dinosaur fossils in the world. The roster of dinosaurs from the Morrison is impressive.

she didn't grab her head in obvious injury," Wilson's dad, Michael, told ABC News affiliate KXLY 4. "She just got up and noticed her head hurt a little bit on the back. But basketball these days is a very physical game, and there's lots of contact."
After a fouled Wilson shot her free throws, she played two more quarters for the Liberty High Lancers. It wasn't until the team gathered after the game when Wilson asked her mom, Lorie, "Who are those girls dressed just like I am and why are they looking at me?" that anyone noticed anything wrong.
Wilson was taken to a hospital in nearby Colfax, where a CT scan ruled out skull fractures and bleeding inside the brain. The amnesia, doctors said, was a lingering symptomof a mild traumatic brain injury, better known as concussion.
"The brain has consistency of Jell-O and sits inside the skull, which is nature's helmet. When you hit your head, the brain can shift back and forth, causing injury at the site of impact and distant from it," said Dr. Alan Cohen, chief of pediatric neurosurgery and surgeon-in-chief at UH Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital in Cleveland.
Concussions are a growing cause of worry in both childhood and professional sports. In December 2009, the National Football League cracked down on when players could return to a game after suffering a blow to the head.
"More and more, we're realizing that there are biochemical changes that go on in the brain during concussion, and that symptoms of post-concussion syndrome, like amnesia, can

their Meal, Ready-to-Eat (MRE). After World War 2 Brach & Sons, a Chicago area confectioner, found that many veterans were buying their vanilla crèmes. Army soldiers had so enjoyed them as part of their C-Ration meals that they continued to purchase them long after leaving European trenches. As long as there has been war, there has been a bond between the soldier and simple battlefield pleasures, no matter what it might be. For a local Civil War veteran, it was something he wanted to enjoy for eternity.
Joseph “Dudley” Mitchell was born in Charleston, Ill. in 1836 to Dr. Arthur G. Mitchell and Anna A. Mitchell. A Civil War veteran, Mitchell served in the Mounted Infantry, Company A, 123 Illinois Regiment.
The mounted infantry were horse-mounted soldiers that actually foughton foot, but were able to respond quickly to battlefield changes by riding quickly into position.
The notorious company was known by many different names, including the “Wilder Brigade,” the “Hatchet Brigade,” and the “Lightning Brigade” and was led by Union Brigadier General John T. Wilder. The company, who at one point put up their own money to purchase weapons and wielded hatchets instead of bayonets, won key victories in Tennessee and Georgia in the closing years of the war.
Mitchell settled in Kiowa County in 1884 and spent his remaining years in Greensburg. He died in 1915 and was survived by his wife Emma (Henderson) Mitchell.
As a soldier in the last war on American soil, Mitchell experienced what many soldiers of that era experienced; hunger, freezing temperatures, very little

I remember being at a parenting conference where the speaker shared how a father made a decision to ask for a demotion in order to spend more time with his family, an act which completely floored his boss, who had never seen such an act in his long career. The man who made that decision to step down in the career ladder many years later looked back at his decision with no regrets, stating, "My children have never once lamented how we couldn't afford fancy vacations, a bigger house or other things. What I do hear constantly from them is how glad they were that I was around while they grew up."

continue, not exceeding the full amount of the whole agreed price; but otherwise the examiners were required to certify the amount which, in their opinion, would be required to complete the steamer, when the Secretary of the Navy was authorized to withhold from future payments such deductions as might be necessary to meet the probable excess of cost. It was further provided, that when Stevens should have fully completed the said war-steamer, and she should have been duly delivered to and received by the agent of the United States, according to the terms of the contract, the full amount of the price remaining unpaid and to become due when she should be fully completed and accepted was required to be paid and the mortgage security cancelled and returned.

The time for the performance of the contract was by a subsequent agreement extended for four years from Sept. 9, 1848.
From Jan. 5, 1845, to Dec. 14, 1855, there was paid out by the Navy Department on account of the vessel $500,000.
Robert L. Stevens had, in addition, expended in its construction, of his own means, $113,579.
The act of Aug. 16, 1856, c. 123, contains an appropriation "for Stevens war-steamer, eighty-six thousand, seven hundred and seventeen dollars and eighty-five cents," being the remainder of the contract price; but no portion of this was ever paid.

Jordan's principle was, I agreed to blog about it so that we'd all know what it was and how we can all put pressure on federal and provincial governments to finally implement it.
Jordan River Anderson was a small boy who was a member of the Norway House Cree Nation in Manitoba. He was born with some serious health issues and required extensive hospital care. When he was two years old, his doctors determined that he was well enough to go home so long as his house was properly outfitted for his needs and he had care specific to his needs.
It was at this point that the federal and provincial government re-engaged in their decades old debate over who should pay for the health costs associated with caring forlittle Jordan. Canada argued that health care was provincial jurisdiction and the province argued that status Indians living on reserve were federal jurisdiction. Because neither government would agree to pay for Jordan's health care costs to live at home with his family, this little boy was forced to stay in the hospital for the next two and half years until he passed away. His family never got to take him home.
For anyone who does not understand what exactly the jurisdictional issue is, here is a mini-overview. Our Constitution Act, 1867 sets out the specific areas of power that the federal and provincial governments will have in Canada. Basically, what this means is that each government has complete power or jurisdiction within their specific areas. These specific areas of

what he was making a copy of.
On the second night:
He retrieves the duplicate diamond from the jeweller. Nothing special to note here.
On the third night with the new disguise:
Route 1: The king, in disguise, contacts a foreign party and makes the plan to steal the magic diamond at the garden party, which was just announced. The king mentions that there will be a point that the jewel is unguarded when someone else is accused of a similar plot.
Route 2: It is also possible that the king claims that he has already stolen the diamond and gives the foreign party the fake. This would be less certain, as the foreign party would know that a fake exists, as it will be displayed at the party.
During thegarden party:
The king displays the fake diamond that he had created. The king gives his orders to his guards, pointing out the jeweller that he had create the duplicate. Because the jeweller is now aware of what he created, he must be eliminated to prevent the king's plot from being exposed.
Route 1: At the time that the guards are killing the jeweller, the foreign party steals the fake magic diamond. This is likely done, as benzene suggested, by swallowing it.
Route 2: In case that he had passed off the fake the night before, the king swallows the real diamond and there is no plot for others to steal it.
Upon his death:
The king, again as benzene suggested, swallows the diamond in order for it to

but kickoffs are a close second.
The NFL moved the kickoff to the 35-yard line in 2011, then changed the reward for a touchback to the 25-yard line in 2016. Most teams are more than happy to accept a touchback, and the majority of NFL kickers have no problem obliging. With only five kickoffs returned for touchdowns the entire 2018 season, the edge-of-your-seat factor is mostly gone.
The AAF has done away with kickoffs entirely, giving offenses the ball at the 25 to start the game. It makes for a bit of an awkward start but otherwise seems just fine. This also means the absence of onside kicks, however. Once one of the most exciting plays in football, but the NFL ruined that, too, changing the rules drastically in theHotel Summary

a rawer Rolling Stones, and other acts. In the Philippines, the arrival of the 1970s brought the First Quarter Storm, a series of mass protests by students that eventually led to President Marcos declaring martial law in 1972.
Pepe was based in the Philippines by then and on his way to Japan for another gig when martial law was imposed, thus paving the way for him to join Juan dela Cruz instead. “I wrote that in a toilet, 20 minutes before going onstage. I was on acid at the time,” says Pepe about “Ang Himig Natin,” the de facto anthem of Filipino rock. It was December 5, 1972 and the history of Philippine rock & roll was about to change forever.So much for one of the most uneventful NCAA tournaments ever. After a quiet first round that saw the better seed win 26 of 32 games, Villanova — the defending tourney champion — became the first No. 1 seed to fall with a 65-62 loss to Wisconsin on Saturday.
The Wildcats didn’t play their best game. They shot just 41 percent from the floor with an offensive efficiency of 107 points per 100 possessions, both well below their season averages, and they allowed an extremely uncharacteristic 111 points per 100 possessions at the other end of the floor. For a team that consistently played above its averages during its championship run last season (particularly on offense), this was a callback to previous tournament disappointments by Jay Wright-led Villanova teams.

I was a “Bennite” (which became a considerable term of abuse in the 1980s) since the 1960s. I was brought up in a Labour household in which the premiership of Harold Wilson was the sun and in his constellation Mr Benn was the brightest of the many stars clustered around that Labour cabinet. There were so many stars – James Callaghan Roy Jenkins Barbara Castle Tony Crosland Richard Crossman Dennis Healey George Brown – but even in that company, the young, fresh-faced, bursting with ideas Wedgwood-Benn (as he was then known) stood out.
For us he seemed to exemplify the “white-hot heat” of the “technological revolution” – Mr Wilson’s wheeze for disguising his socialist purpose from a hostile media and the “Gnomes of Zurich” who, even then with theirany other passing and has caused, unusually for me, the cancellation of a raft of important engagements.
I first met Tony Benn (as he was by then) at the Labour conference in Blackpool in 1974. I was 20 years old, the Secretary of Dundee West Constituency Labour Party. Whilst I was expressing my hero-worship of him, he told me that I was “the youngest constituency party secretary in Labour Party history”. It made that badge seem much brighter.
We remained in touch throughout the 1970’s as Tony Benn emerged as the most important, most popular socialist – as opposed to mere Labour – figure in Britain in the 20th century. When Mr Wilson and then Mr Callaghan’s governments (1974-79) ran into more and more troubled waters it was Tony Benn

However, Kagen warned that due to the nature of her sources, viewers are advised not to read her maps too literally. It is difficult, for instance, to estimate the volume, location and frequency of a musical performance, particularly when such information is derived from survivors' testimonies given years after the event.
Additionally, the recordings were produced by modern-day musicians and, as a result, do not accurately reflect the actual performances conducted in the camp.
Kagen said she expects her maps to draw more extensive scrutiny and criticism, mainly because they try to replicate the sensory environment of a highly charged and emotional subject. Yet she says experiencing the sounds of Auschwitz is an imperative first step to asking the right questions – both about the pasthad been at a party together and one said he had seen him swallow the powder.

Robots and world-dominating artificial intelligences are right in the post-apocalyptic wheelhouse of Daniel H. Wilson.
The robotics engineer and Robopocalypse author brings his love for tech and end-of-the-world scenarios to the DC Comics universe as the "showrunner" for the upcoming weekly series Earth 2: Worlds End beginning in October. But comic-book readers and his sci-fi following alike get a taste of what he can do with parallel worlds and superhuman characters in Earth 2: Futures End, a one-shot with a 3-D motion cover out Wednesday that's part of DC's month-long "Five Years Later" crossover.

"The way you tough it out ... congratulations," Federer said in a court-side interview. "I would have loved to have won the title, but Lleyton was better than me today."
Hewitt received the trophy from Australian great Rod Laver, a regular at the Australian Open final presentations involving Federer over the years.
"It's been a while since I won a trophy. For me to get it from you really means a lot," Hewitt said. "I don't need to congratulate Roger, he gets congratulated every week when he's up here for finals!"
Hewitt had not won a title since he beat Federer in the final at Halle in 2010 and his most recent tournament victory on home soil was the 2005 Sydney International; the same year he lost the AustralianOpen decider to Marat Safin.
That result at Halle ended a 15-match losing streak to Federer. Now he has won two of their past three matches in the twilight of a career that peaked when he was ranked No. 1 for 80 weeks and won the 2001 U.S. Open and 2002 Wimebledon titles.
Hewitt's ranking was projected to reach the low 40s with a win. He finished last season at No. 61 in another disrupted season after toe, foot, hand, hip and back injuries kept him off the tour for long periods between 2007 and the start of 2013.
"We've been through a rough four of five years, five different surgeries, it's been tough," Hewitt said, thanking his support group and paying tribute to his wife and three children.

Islamabad: Pakistan`s ISI chief Lt Gen Ahmed
Shuja Pasha held a secret meeting with former military ruler Pervez Musharraf in Dubai and advised him not to return to the country, according to a media report Tuesday.
"Gen Pasha, who has remained very close to the former
President, held a meeting with (Musharraf) in Dubai and
advised him not to return to the country as the situation is
not conducive for his return," a source was quoted as saying
by Dawn News channel.
The channel quoted its sources as saying that Pasha
"strictly advised" Musharraf not to return to Pakistan from
self-exile.
The report said it was not clear whether the meeting was
held on the directions of the Pakistan People`s Party-led
government or if it was a private meeting.
The report said Musharraf, after meeting Pasha, convened a meeting of hisAll Pakistan Muslim League party on January 25 for reviewing his decision to return to Pakistan.
The media report coincided with a resolution passed by
the Senate or upper house of parliament that demanded the
arrest of Musharraf on his return to Pakistan and the
registration of a case of high treason against him for
abrogating the Constitution.
Several Pakistani leaders, including Interior Minister Rehman Malik, have said Musharraf would be arrested on his
return to Pakistan.
Musharraf recently postponed his plans to return to
Karachi during January 27-30. The dictator has been living
outside Pakistan since early 2009.

"I'll deal with your fucking tits!" I roared, in a sexual rage
now, and smashed her hands out of the way with my fists before mercilessly beating her bruised tits until they were swollen to almost twice
normal size and had turned blue-black. Then I hit her low down in the
stomach and followed it up with a hard right hand smash to the side of
her mouth. This last blow knocked her head sharply to one side, splitting her lip again and blood splattered across the carpet.

Infinity Cat has officially welcomed Nectar to the family and will release their debut full length on 4/20. Ahead of Knocking at the Door's release the group is sharing "Blinds" here on The Grey Estates. The track is a hopeful garage pop ode that tackles the process of distinguishing between feelings of loneliness and just being alone. The two-minute guitar-driven single is deceivingly upbeat and comforting given its subject matter, with the band piecing together a musical portrait of the eeriness and feelings that can accompany being on your own. And while the slicing guitar and catchy lyrics are blissfully energized and furious, the single's subject matter is heartfelt and enables listeners to look at loneliness with hope instead of sadness.

In 1998, Phillips supported hiring Plaintiff as the Main Street coordinator. (Def's SMF ¶ 76). The other two individual Defendants had not yet been elected to the council. (Pl's SMF ¶ 2).
In April 2001, the Mayor and city council promoted Plaintiff to director of commercial and industrial development ("development director") for the city of College Park. At the time of Plaintiff's promotion, Phillips was still the only individual Defendant who was on the city council. (Pl's SMF ¶ 12). In 2001, Phillips supported promoting Plaintiff to development director. (Def's SMF ¶¶ 77). As development director, Plaintiff was employed onan at-will basis pursuant to a one-year renewable contract. (Def's SMF ¶ 7). He was the highest ranking employee in the development department and supervised one employee, Allan Lane. (Def's SMF ¶¶ 10, 11).
Plaintiff asserts that when he was seeking an assistant to supervise a development program for Old National Highway, he narrowed the candidates down to two people, a white woman and a black man, Lane. (Pl. Dep. at 82). Plaintiff testified that Phillips only wanted to meet with Lane, the African-American, and Lane was the person hired by the city, even though Plaintiff preferred the female candidate and considered her better qualified. (Pl. Dep. at 86).
As Main Street coordinator and later as development director, Plaintiff received recognition and awards for his work, and he also obtained

the Playoffs
3 of 5
A third-year player from Fordham University is the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals.
How nuts is that?
It was just recently announced that John Skelton had beaten out Kevin Kolb as the Cardinals starting quarterback.
Coach Ken Whisenhunt will look like a genius after it's all said and done.
Although Kolb is being paid the big bucks, Skelton is the right choice for the job.
He doesn't seem daunted or intimidated by opposing defenses like Kolb has been accused of. Besides, Skelton outperformed his rival in the preseason. His stats aren't necessarily better, but at least he can stay in the pocket and take a hit.
Arizona finished with an 8-8 record in 2011, playing the entire season with uncertainty at the quarterback position.
This year will be different.
For his career,Skelton has tossed 13 touchdowns and has been picked off 16 times. He owns a quarterback rating of 66.9. And yet, I still think Skelton will lead his team to the postseason.
Arizona's schedule in 2012 is full of lackluster teams. The Cardinals play 10 games against teams that failed to have a winning record in 2011.
Before going down with a torn ACL in 2011, he was on pace for a career year. In three games, Britt caught 17 passes for 289 yards while hauling in three touchdowns. The 23-year-old will pick up right where he left off.
Britt will be catching passes from Jake Locker, who the Titans believe will be a very good NFL quarterback. Locker will add more consistency to the offense than his predecessor Matt Hasselbeck

On March 6, the oil giant announced its “Growing the Gulf” investment plan to invest $20 billion over 10 years in projects in Texas and Louisiana. The company said its plan would create 35,000 construction jobs and 12,000 full-time jobs, through 11 chemical, refining, lubricant and liquefied natural gas projects. The company acknowledged that its investments began in 2013 and are expected to continue through at least 2022.

to 1852, had been unknown.
"We have finally discovered the identity of the exact strain that caused all this havoc," study co-author Hernán Burbano, a researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology in Germany, said in a statement. [Microscopic Worlds Gallery: Fascinating Fungi]
Previously, a Phytophthora strain called US-1 was thought to have triggered the potato famine, but by sequencing the genomes of preserved samples of the plant pathogen, the researchers discovered that a different strain — one that is new to science — was the real culprit.
"Both strains seem to have separated from each other only years before the first major outbreak in Europe," Burbano said.
DNA detectives
The researchers studied 11 historic samples from potato leaves that were collected about 150 years ago in Ireland, the United Kingdom,Europe and North America.
The scientists found these ancient samples, which were preserved at the Botanical State Collection Munich and the Kew Gardens in London, still had many intact pieces of DNA. In fact, the DNA quality was so good the researchers were able to sequence the entire genome of Phytophthora infestans and its host, the potato, within just a few weeks.
"The degree of DNA preservation in the herbarium samples really surprised us," study co-author Johannes Krause, a professor of paleogenetics at the University of Tübingen in Germany, said in a statement.
The decoded genomes of these historical samples were then compared with modern Phytophthora strains from Europe, Africa and the Americas. The results enabled the researchers to trace the evolution of the pathogen, including where and when the HERB-1

Humans of Tehran
Photographer Brandon Stanton’s Humans of New York project, which has spawned “Humans of” pages in many other locales – Dublin, Mumbai, Jerusalem and the Fiji Islands to name a few – began in 2010. Stanton had just left a career in the Chicago financial industry to move to New York, where he began walking around the city, taking street portraits.
At this time, Souciant contributor Shirin Barghi had just begun attending New York University to pursue a journalism career in the US. Shirin, who grew up in Tehran and worked as a journalist there until she came to the US, mulled over the idea of starting a Humans of Tehran in the winter of 2011 while she was back in Tehran to attend her father’s funeral.
“I wantedfelt uncomfortable with having a stranger take their pictures. Part of his growing success since then has been the knowledge among people who’ve heard of the project that Humans of New York photos almost always come with a short story about the subject, a conversation between the subject and Stanton, or a snappy caption.
For Shirin, though, her captions are fewer and further between, which goes back to the problems she had at the very start, getting her subjects to stand still so she could photograph them. Memories of the 2009 crackdown on the Green Movement were still strong, and the scenes of riot police and hired irregulars spying on, beating and arresting hundreds of demonstrators (including many journalists covering the protests for independent Iranian news outlets) played over

The Art of Strategy
The Art of Strategy is R. L. Wing's reinvention of Sun Tzu's The Art of War. Wing took an original manuscript of Sun Tzu's Thirteen Chapters and translated it into English from Chinese. He further broke it down into a total of fifty-two passages, four for each chapter, to be read in the course of one year. The intention being for one to muse on the philosophy of one passage for a week before moving on to the next.
The thirteen chapters are: The Calculations, The Challenge, The Plan of Attack, Positioning, Directing, Illusion and Reality, Engaging the Force, The Nine Variations, Moving the Force, Situational Positioning, The Nine Situations, The Fiery Attack, and The Use of Intelligence. At the beginning of each chapter, Wing hasadded an introduction to each chapter detailing how the concepts discussed in the chapter proceeding it apply to Conflict with the Self, Conflict in the Environment, Conflict with Another, and Conflict Among Leaders. There is also space reserved with each passage for the reader to make notes.
The first chapter, “The Calculations”, is divided into the following four passages: The Five Fundamentals of Strategy, Examining the Fundamentals, The Tao of Paradox, and Foretelling Triumph. It is primarily concerned with tallying up one's forces and organizing a plan prior to entering an engagement. It emphasizes analyzing the conflict.
The second chapter, “The Challenge”, is divided into the following four passages: Knowing the Costs, Swift Strategies, Using the Opponent's Resources, and Incorporating the Opponent's Strength. It deals primarily with the costs of

A hearing was scheduled and then postponed at Foster's request. He declined to attend a second hearing, stating that the case could be considered on the written submissions. After considering the written materials, the Appeals Committee unanimously agreed that Foster's dismissal was "on just grounds and appropriate." Shortly thereafter, the full board adopted the decision of the Appeals Committee. Foster then brought this action, seeking reinstatement, back pay and damages. He alleged that his discharge violatedthat the government's involvement in the operation of the SSIE is sufficient to constitute the type of symbiotic relationship found in Burton.

“Thank you for reminding folks about one of the greatest periods in our nation’s history. I was at Dr. King’s Detroit March in 1963, actively following in the steps of other Yankees who had become aware of the tragedy of segregation in our nation.

Patients who received their first episode of ARV counseling on the day of ARV initiation were not considered to have had pre-adherence counseling, as they did not require extra patient visits. Counseling was measured by review of the electronic medical record for ARV counseling visits after 2007, when counseling forms were introduced in the clinical practice. For patients with no record of ARV-adherence counseling in the electronic medical record, we performed chart review to minimize the probability of misallocation bias.
We measured time delay to ARV initiation as the time from ARV eligibility to first receipt of ARVs. Eligibility

welfare rolls to measure the success of the policy meant that the several states would go utterly wild in doing so and, as a result, the policy inevitably would cause untold pain and misery in those areas of society left outside that crude metric. But there was a tech boom, and a housing bubble, so everybody cheered the great bipartisan success of welfare reform. In fact, on the campaign trail this year, both Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum — and have I mentioned recently what a colossal dick he is? — have claimed personal credit for the epochal achievement in American politics.
And now, here comes DeParle again with the butcher's bill, A1 right in this Sunday's Times:
But the distress of the last four years has added a cautionarypostscript: much as overlooked critics of the restrictions once warned, a program that built its reputation when times were good offered little help when jobs disappeared. Despite the worst economy in decades, the cash welfare rolls have barely budged. Faced with flat federal financing and rising need, Arizona is one of 16 states that have cut their welfare caseloads further since the start of the recession — in its case, by half. Even as it turned away the needy, Arizona spent most of its federal welfare dollars on other programs, using permissive rules to plug state budget gaps.
Sometimes, I think we should hang the phrase, "much as overlooked critics once warned" in blinding pink neon down one side of the Washington Monument. "Overlooked critics" said Iraq would be

Tanrıkulu left the civil service and was elected as a Member of Parliament for İzmir's second electoral district in the 1999 general election. The MHP came second, falling behind the Democratic Left Party (DSP) led by Bülent Ecevit. Ecevit subsequently formed a three-party coalition between the DSP, the MHP and the Motherland Party (ANAP). In the government, Tanrıkulu became the Minister of Industry and Commerce and served until early elections were called in 2002. He, along with all other MHP MPs, lost his seat after his party polled below the 10% election threshold in the election.

for historical events, economic, political, psychological, do not apply here. An archetypal Germanic force, a god potent as Jehovah, has surged up from the depths of the unconscious: “the berserker, the god of storm, the wanderer, the warrior, the god of magical wish and remembrance, the lord of the dead and of the heroes in Valhalla , the master of secret knowledge, the magician, and the god of the poets.”
God of magic and poetry and secret knowledge: maybe Wotan is not entirely bad after all, despite the berserking. Ambivalence lurks in the corners even of Jung’s most famous anti-Nazi polemic. The truly vital gods, not those etiolated by institutional timidity but the ones who appear in their full resplendence, are as evil as they are good, as goodof the unconscious, to bring the discovered treasure to conscious light, and to live richly, in spirit, off the discovery. In “The Psychology of the Transference: Interpreted in Conjunction with a Set of Alchemical Pictures” (1946), a monograph collected in The Practice of Psychotherapy, Jung offers an interpretation like no other of “the last and greatest work of alchemy — Goethe’s Faust. Goethe is really describing the experience of the alchemist who discovers that what he has projected into the retort is his own darkness, his unredeemed state, his passion, his struggles to reach the goal, i.e., to become what he really is, to fulfill the purpose for which his mother bore him, and, after the peregrinations of a long life full of confusion and error, to become

expedition aboard Fram. He later became noted as a zoologist and oceanographer, and was a pioneer of the neuron theory. He was also a distinguished diplomat, eventually becoming Commissioner of refugees for the League of Nations. He was married to Eva Nansen (died 1907) and was the father of noted architect and humanist Odd Nansen and the grandfather of Eigil Nansen.
First crossing of Greenland
Nansen made his first voyage to Greenland waters in a sealing ship in 1882. In 1883 he became inspired to attempt a crossing of Greenland by ski after hearing of Nordenskiöld's expedition of the same year.[1] Nansen's plan was to cross the island from east to west, which would require navigating through an almost impenetrable barrier of pack ice to land a ship on thethrough the sea ice, a journey that took more than three years. Nansen's theory was premised on an article written by a Professor Mohn, in which the professor conjectured that articles determined to be from the Jeannette which foundered northeast of the New Siberian Islands and found on the southwest coast of Greenland must have drifted across the Polar Sea. In the introduction to Farthest North, Nansen said "It immediately occurred to me that here lay the route ready at hand" [7] across the Polar Sea. Nansen conjectured the Polar current's warm water "could hardly have been other than the Gulf Stream"[8] and was the agent behind the movement of the ice. During this first crossing of the Arctic Ocean the expedition became the first to discover the

Lars von Trier's Antichrist is the unlikely subject of a videogame translation, with Hitman writer Morten Iversen working to bring a game inspired by the controversial movie to PC.
'[The movie] goes against all the conventions of how you make games and what you can do in games' Iversen told, 'Dead kids, nudity, graphic violence. It will be a very controversial game, and it'll be a game that doesn't really compare with anything else.'Antichrist was one of the most talked about films at this year's Cannes Festival, with von Trier returning to his antagonistic ways with a graphic horror film starring Charlotte Gainsbourg and Willem Dafoe.Iversen, who previously worked at IO Games on the Hitman series, is bringing von Trier's vision to games with Eden , a download-only titleInc. for the plastering subcontract work which has been completed.
The acknowledgment made on the letter addressed to appellee Galliher & Bro. was signed "Claude R. Smith, Authorized Agent," and that made on the letter addressed to appellee Sullivan was signed "Harry R. Sullivan, Owner."
A similar letter was sent to Perpetual Building Association from which appellee Sullivan borrowed the construction money, but it does not appear that the requested acknowledgment was ever made.
Sometime thereafter the general contractor abandoned the construction of the dwelling and appellee Sullivan took over as his own general contractor and finally completed the improvement on June 26, 1968.

The contractor, DynCorp International , confirmed that its employees, working on a program sponsored by the U.S. Department of State, were involved in an accident on the main road to the Kabul airport. In a statement, DynCorp said that when its employees got out of their vehicle, they and other DynCorp employees, who arrived at the scene to help, were attacked by the crowd, which burned their vehicles.
"Our condolences go out to the families of those who were killed or injured," DynCorp said. "An investigation is under way."
People at the scene claimed foreigners fired shots, killing and wounding Afghan civilians. DynCorp said the contractors fired no shots and that Afghan police helped move the contractors to safety away from the crowd. Hospital officials saidTag: Children

People inspect the damage at a market hit by airstrikes in Aleppo's rebel held al-Fardous district, Syria October 12, 2016. REUTERS/Abdalrhman Ismail
BEIRUT (Reuters) - Heavy air strikes on rebel-held areas in the Syrian city of Aleppo killed 25 people on Wednesday, most of them at a market, a rescue service said, as the Syrian government and Russia pursued their joint offensive to capture the whole city.
Syrian and Russian military officials could not immediately be reached for comment on the latest air strikes.
The Civil Defence, a rescue service operating in rebel-held areas, said on its Twitter feed the air strikes had killed 25 people, 15 of them at a market place in the Fardous district.
Heavy aerial bombardment of eastern Aleppo resumed on Tuesday after a pause of several dayswhich the Syrian army said was designed to allow civilians to leave.
President Bashar al-Assad, with military backing from Russia and Iranian-backed militias, aims to take back all of Aleppo, which was Syria’s biggest city before the outbreak of war in 2011. The city has been divided between government and rebel control for years.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based organization that reports on the war, also reported heavy air strikes against the rebel-held Eastern Ghouta area near Damascus.
A Syrian military source said that warplanes had struck several locations to the south and southwest of Aleppo.
Western states have condemned the Syrian government and Russia over their latest onslaught against rebel-held Aleppo. The Syrian army has denied any targeting of civilians but France and the United States have called

movie Leiber has no spoken dialogue in the film but features in a few scenes. He also appeared in the The Bermuda Triangle documentary (1970), based on the book by Charles Berlitz.
As far as we know, he never appeared in any of the adaptations of his own work. Listeners may be familiar with Leiber’s novel Conjure Wife, which was turned into the movie Night of the Eagle (1962). It’s also confusingly known as Burn Witch Burn, which is the title of a 1932 novel by A Merritt. But whatever you call it, Night of the Eagle is definitely worth a look.
Not quite as effective is an earlier adaptation of Conjure Wife, released as Weird Woman (1944). This time the story is transplanted to the South Seas, starring LonChaney Jr as the academic who this time marries a native woman and gets dragged into a voodoo-like scenario.
Equinox, as mentioned above, is not as good as Night of the Eagle, but it’s weird enough to be here. Four friends are attacked by a demon while on a picnic, due to the fact that they possess a tome of mystic information (?) – and it goes downhill from there. Mark Thomas McGee was the writer, and he turned out scripts or screenplays for quite a few horror movies, from the curious to the ridiculous. Mind you, he was apparently only a teenager when he wrote Equinox. Here are some of his titles:

New York Fire Department members attend a second funeral service for FDNY firefighter Michael Haub in Franklin Square, N.Y., Tuesday, Sept. 10, 2019. The firefighter from New York's Long Island who died in the World Trade Center attacks is being remembered for a second time on the eve of the 18th anniversary of 9/11. Friends and family gathered at the memorial service for Haub on Tuesday in Franklin Square. Last week, the New York City medical examiner identified more of his remains recovered at ground zero.

companion Chan and himself had gone to the Nguyen's house to work out a previous dispute that
Chan had had with Thien, and that there was never any intention to rob them. Pham further testified
that they arrived and the door was opened, the two inside the house jumped him and he dropped his

An older married couple (late 50s) have three children: two are adult, married and with children – away from home. The third, a son, is sixteen and in all kinds of trouble: dealing in drugs and associating with gangs, and on parole for stealing and wrecking a car (owned by other members of the family). He is increasingly defiant and troublesome.
The family has been both very conservative politically and religiously. But the couple is in despair regarding their youngest. And just made the decision to surrender the care and control of this teenager… to theto help them find solutions and a path towards clarity.
The economy in Pleasanton is comprised of many different industries, with Hacienda Business Park being the largest area where these businesses are located. Some of these businesses include Safeway, Thoratec Corporation, Ross Stores, Oracle, Safe Software, CooperVision, Clorox, and many others.1 The city also has one big mall, the Stoneridge Shopping Center, with both national and regional retailers. With the city's increase in population in recent years, so too has the median household income, which now stands at around $114,000 per year. Median housing prices top off at around $832,000.

The IRS recently updated and clarified tax deadlines for taxpayers affected by Emancipation Day and Patriots' Day. In general, when a tax deadline falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or
legal holiday, the tax deadline is extended to the next day that does not fall on a Saturday,
Sunday, or legal holiday. For example, in a year when the April 15 deadline for filing Form
1040 falls on a Saturday, the filing deadline is extended to Monday April 17.
Emancipation Day is a legal holiday in the District of Columbia and is observed on April
16 when it is a weekday. In a year when April 16 is a Saturday, the preceding day (Friday
April 15) is the observed holiday. When April 16 is a Sunday, the succeeding day (Monday
April 17) is the observed holiday.

such as Verisk Health's DxCG model. The first change requires only an administrative decision to implement. By ignoring differences in diagnosed disease among members enrolled for less than 12 months, CMS-HCC's current implementation creates incentives for MA plans to enroll healthier Medicare enrollees and "penalties" (at least in the first year) for plans enrolling people who are already sick. The second change takes more work. The CMS-HCC model seeks to include CCs based on their association with next year's costs for Medicare parts A and B benefits.

You’ve probably never heard of Macaulay or What Not. However, Aldous Huxley, author of the science fiction classic Brave New World, hung out in the same London literary circles as her and his 1932 book contains many concepts that Macaulay first introduced in her work. In 2019, you’ll be able to read Macaulay’s book yourself and compare the texts as the British publisher Handheld Press is planning to re- release the forgotten novel in March.

"With production expanding strongly, the question is can sellers of US crude price exports attractively enough to capture international markets," the Paris-based IEA said in a report.
The IEA, which monitors energy supplies for the world's richest nations, said that US exports were limited in July and August by hurricanes and the Trump administration's trade war with China. But the agency expects the United States to challenge again for the title of top exporter.
"The installation of the necessary pipelines and terminals is continuing apace, which will ensure that the trend continues," the agency said in its report.

Many pieces of music include periods of time when string instruments are not played, and must be held. Also, string instruments and bows must be temporarily stored during intermissions between musical pieces. Finally, string instrument musicians need to temporarily store their instruments at their practice facilities between practice sessions.
During these times, and especially during the performance of a piece of music and intermissions during musical performances, a musician needs to safely hold or store his or her string instrument within easy reach. When the time approaches to begin playing again, musician must be able to reach their instruments quickly, quietly, and with a minimum of disruption or extra movement.

"It was agreed to enhance military coordination in the course of the operation in Syria against "Islamic State" fighters and other extremist organizations," the statement added.
Russia's Defense Ministry said Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov also called his Turkish counterpart to offer condolences over the accidental strike.
"Russian jets were carrying out a military mission to destroy IS positions in the area of Al-Bab," a Defense Ministry statement said. The two military chiefs "agreed on closer coordination of joint actions and also the exchange of information about the situation on the ground," it said.
The incident happened in the north of Syria where both sides are fighting against IS
Troops clash outside IS town
In the same area, Turkish-backed Syrian opposition fighters briefly clashedwith Syrian government allied troops on the outskirts the IS-held town. It was the first such confrontation since the Turkey-backed offensive began in northern Syria last August.
Heavily fortified IS forces in al-Bab were effectively encircled as Syrian government forces and their allies, aided by Russian airstrikes pushed from the south, while Turkish troops, backing Syrian opposition fighters, pushed their way from the western part of the town.
The two countries back opposing sides of the six-year civil in Syria, but are both fighting against IS in various parts of the country.
Russia and Turkey only recently repaired ties after Turkey shot down a Russian jet near the border with Syria two years ago. In late December, the two countries brokered a ceasefire for Syria and in January they sponsored peace

amount of anger towards anything! Like his father, he spent his life preaching the merits of peaceful negotiation, but now all those words were forgotten in the harsh pounding of blood in his head, drowning out all noise around him until all he could hear was the sound of rage.
Even fatally wounded as he was, Aang could see the hate blazing in his son's eyes. "Ten…" He gasped, but it was too late; Tenzin was on the move.
Like any Airbender, Tenzin could move much faster than a normal person. He used this movement to his advantage and caught up to the assassin with almost no effort. He used a complicated Airbending move that allowed him to change the density of the air in front of the fleeing assassin.Normally, an Airbender would use this move to lower the density of the air and make lighter-than-air flight possible. This time, Tenzin used it to raise the density of the Air to almost impossible levels. For a split second, he was able to make the air itself as hard as a rock and the assassin slammed hard into the invisible wall, breaking his nose instantly on impact.
The assassin cried out in shock and pain as he fell to the ground. He didn't spend too much time in the dirt, because Tenzin was close behind. The young man grabbed the assassin by the cloth of his tunic and lifted him from the ground.
Now, Tenzin was quite thin. Airbenders, as a general rule, never got bulky or had much in

is unclear what point the is making once you divide up the five year figure he gives us
As Shug points out- the SNP are cooking up these crowd-pleasing and expensive policies to further their desire for independence. They have the British government over a barrel- withhold spending and the nationalists get to point out that Scotland is being denied money; carry on pouring a disproportionate amount of money in to Scotland and the rest of the UK grows resentful of this bias, furthering the will to grant independence either side of the Border.
Anyhoo, as for 'Scottish' oil, there isn't all that much- most North Sea oil is within English waters. Should independence ever be granted, the English should have Edinburgh returned to their possession, which would also meana Japanese organisation. If you had suggested 150 years ago that a backward, clan ridden, isolationist state on the wrong side of the world and no natural resources to speak of would be an economic superpower or for much of its developed history a military one our forbears would have laughed. Ditto China and India. Whose laughing now.
What I would like to see is a prosperous Scotland which is prosperous on a level(ish) playing field. Much of Scotland's past wealth was built on Empire, a system of having trapped resource suppliers and trapped markets. The economics of shooting fish in a barrel.
It was reported recently by the soon to be abolished North Western regional assembly that there will be drilling for oil of the English coast in Cumbria.Many

University, and a specialist on Islamist terror in the West, told me that "only six out of 38 plots in Europe between 2014 and 2016 were truly planned and carried out by lone actors."
Even in the United States, he added, around one fifth of the 38 ISIS-inspired domestic plots and attacks between March 1, 2014, and March 1, 2017, involved some form of communication with what he calls "virtual entrepreneurs" -- online case officers employed by ISIS to instruct and provide logistical support for prospective attackers.
ISIS has also built up an array of offshore outposts, what it grandiosely calls wilayats, or provinces, to ensure its survival beyond the demise of its pseudo state.

Although successive British governments have repeatedly claimed more school children are learning a foreign language, and that the teaching of foreign languages was core to bring the country closer to Europe, the research points to an “alarming shortage” of people with foreign language skills even in the world’s major languages.

The term “spring fever” refers to a both psychological and physiological symptoms associated with the arrival of spring, including restlessness, daydreaming, and increased sexual appetite. While the exact cause is unclear, scientists believe that increased light, more

younger foster .
it's a joy to watch her cagily bargain for her own measure of influence within the realm of mongkut's monarchy .
when she makes her entrance into a politically charged banquet mid-film , she exudes a hypnotic beauty that is deepened by her textured performance .
chow-yun fat's king mongkut is every measure of foster's anna , perhaps even more so .
this is the chow yun-fat that hong kong cinema has been in love with for nearly twenty years .
he is imposing , yet vulnerable , playful , but stern .
it is an impressively assured and nuanced performance .
precious time is stolen from the movie's 155 minutes running time by an unengaging subplot involving one the king's concubines ( bai ling) and her love of a commoner .
it strikes with the subtlety of siam's fabled white elephant as it stomps through the leisurely paced story .
some may be put off by the action filled climax of the movie .
although a bit inconsistent in tone from the rest of the film , it fits within the established subplot of a perceived siege by neighboring burma , a country backed by the british .
anna and the king transcends being a predictable , traditional love story by avoiding mawkishness .
it shows a seduction of intelligence .
ever mindful of each other's positions , anna and king mongkut negotiate a maze of social customs , conflicting world views and lost loved ones to connect on a level

his release he went to teach at Loughborough University, where he remained for the rest of his career, becoming a professor specialising in techniques of measurement. Ernst, who was the holder of a number of electrical equipment patents, worked until 1939 for a firm in Hornberg in the Black Forest which was linked by a licence agreement with Crabtree. Shortly before the outbreak of war, Ernst also moved to work for Crabtree; he was also interned but then returned to Crabtree with which he was linked to the end of his life. Ernst’s wife and four daughters remained in Germany and were deported from Baden to the Gurs concentration camp in southern France in 1940. In 1942 they were claimed as members by the Protestant church and wereable to move to Switzerland for the remainder of the war. Julian’s mother Irene (née Fuidge) was a ballet dancer from Ireland. She was already ill with cancer when Julian was born in Loughborough in March 1945, and she died in 1949. He then moved to live with his German-speaking grandparents in Streetly, near Birmingham, moving back to his father’s home when his father remarried in 1954 and subsequently becoming a pupil at Loughborough Grammar School; there are photographs of a youthful Julian in Figure \[fig:child\]. The Besags were enthusiastic mountaineers and Julian spent many family holidays climbing in the Alps. It is believed that in his teens he held the record for the longest survived fall from rocks in the UK.

have to be read from left to right. They contained three columns, which he concluded contained three different types of writings. He called them class I, II, III. He also concluded that class one represented ancient Persian consisting of 42 symbols, but 9 of them did not represent letters. By the beginning of the XIX century, enough tablets were discovered to conclude that they represented three languages. With class one representing alphabetic writings, class II syllabic, and class III picture and all represented the same text. Finally Georg Friedrich Grotefend (1775-1853), who was a teacher of Greek and Latin, solved the linguistic puzzle, claiming that the class I contained 40 letters. His first translation can be represented by the following: Kserkses king, son of Darus king, son ofHystaspes.
Further studies by Rowlisonson found that the name NABUHUDURRISSUR (known today as Nabuchodonozor) was represented in class II as AN-PA-SA-DU-SIS. Needless to say that some scientists laughed at him saying that no one could use such a complicated form of writing, but he had the last laugh. New branch of archaeology was created known as Assyriology and concluded that symbols represented one language which was not semitic hence the language of Sumerians. Encient city of Uruk and its treasures was discovered by William Kenneth Loftus (cartographer). Other cities like Nippur followed. They found a library with no less than 20,000 inscribed clay tablets. As they were digging they were discovering an even older ruins, which also led to the discovery of immense flood.

beloved Piano Quintet in A, op. 81.
The interpretation had an American subjectivity, for Dvořák's influence on
American music is so pervasive that it is difficult for Americans to view his
work without reference to that influence. Nevertheless, the ensemble made
a deliberate effort to perform the work as Czech chamber musicians would, as a
unified group rather than an association of individuals. The insights
gained from performing Novák enhanced the interpretation of this work as well.
Dvořák was a violist, and
playing his viola parts can yield remarkable insights into his musicality and
the man himself. As a composer and highly experienced performer, Kivrak
was able to convey this performer's view eloquently, with refined, sensitive
musicianship. He brought to mind Dvořák's somber reflectiveness, the
depths of his character, and above all, his love of beautiful sound. His
interpretation inspired theother players, unfolding to produce a memorable Dumky.

Radoslav Kvapil in Chicago
On March 10, 1999 Czech
pianist Radoslav Kvapil returned to Chicago to give a recital at Roosevelt
University which was of unusual musicological interest. Much of the
information in this review derives from interviews with this extraordinary
performer. As part of a lifelong effort to preserve the Czech piano
repertory and give it international exposure on a professional level,
Kvapil established the definitive performance practice for Dvořák's piano works
and for the original version of the Dvořák piano concerto. Kvapil
recently used Dvořák's own Bösendorfer piano to record the works that Dvořák
wrote in 1880, shortly after acquiring the instrument. In searching for
the most appropriate performance practice for these subtle, transparent works,
Kvapil discovered that their style must have been strongly influenced by the

One tell-tale sign of the struggle is the unusually large age gap within the current lineup.
Among the league's biggest challenges has been retaining talent, with players emigrating, doing their military service, or being injured or killed in the conflict.
But it still practises and competes, including in the prestigious FIBA Asia Cup championship to held on August 17-27 in neighbouring Lebanon.
Since Syria's conflict erupted in March 2011, Khoury's team has seen its ranks dwindle and its options for training venues shrink.
Khalil Khoury dribbles a basketball deftly down the dilapidated gym where he and the rest of the Syrian national team train, passing it through his legs before a silky-smooth lay-up.
"I'm the youngest player on the team," said 19-year-old Khoury, who moved directly onto the squad from the youth league.
"Myteammate Michael Madanly is about 20 years older than me," he told AFP during a break from practice at Al-Fayhaa sports centre in Damascus.

"Some players have gone abroad and many others to do military serv
ice, so it's natural for players to stay on until they're older," said the small forward.
"But it affects physical fitness, and it will show when we play with young teams."
The head of Syria's Basketball Federation, Daniel Zoalkefl, said the national league has "lost more than 120 players" who have joined the exodus from their war-battered country.
Jotting down the names of the 12 players attending practice, Zoalkefl said the sport also faces other

move to have his sentence reviewed by the sentencing court and the court may impose a new sentence, for good cause shown as though the person had been convicted under the code, except that no period of detention or supervision shall be increased as a result of such resentencing.
Defendant first sought a change in his sentence authorized by the foregoing statute before the trial court in 2005, a resentencing panel in 2006 and by way of a petition for certification filed in 2007.2 The Supreme Court denied that petition. Richardson v. State, 192 N.J. 72 (2007). In all three of those applications, defendant argued good cause based on the disparity between his sentence and his co-defendant's sentence.
Following the denial of his petition for certification, defendant moved before thea festval’s icon, red signboard in front of the participating organizations such as museums, design firms, shops, and galleries, all over London. Victoria & Albert Museum is also a part of the festival and visitors can enjoy commissioned installations and displays as well as special events, talks and workshops throughout the period (details are at V&A website).
A gigantic installation of ‘Timber Wave‘ by Amanda Levete Architects and Arup (September 17 – October 15) at the Cromwell Road entrance is one of the highlight at the V&A festival program. The three-dimensional latticework spiral is made of American red oak, using lamination techniques normally used in furniture making, and applied to create a piece 12m high. It has un-treelike flexibility and treelike vitality – spectacular.

filed the complaint in this action.
I find that as of June 30, 1983, the plaintiff "terminated his employment" as MTA Executive Director-Treasurer. Although he was employed by the Association on the 30th of June, from July 1, 1983 to June 30, 1984 Doctor Hebert functioned as a consultant. His chief service in that regard was attendance at an annual meeting of the National Education Association. The evidence disclosed that as of July 1, 1983 he did not have an office at the MTA, no secretary, nor any supervisory authority. He was not an executive, nor an administrator. On October first of that year, he became President and Chairman of the Board of the First Consumer Life Insurance Company, and received an annual salary from that company.
If one acceptsthe definition of the word "employee" as used in the Plan which became effective in 1967, he would conclude that Doctor Hebert was an employee of the MTA through June 30, 1983, but was not an "employee" after that date. An "employee" was a person scheduled to work at least a thousand hours in a plan year (which began July 1 of a calendar year and terminated the next June 30th). Doctor Hebert was not scheduled to work a thousand hours in 1983-1984. Plaintiff's Exhibit 1, § 2.04. Employment as of June 30, 1983, however, is critical to Doctor Hebert's claim to eligibility under the optional formula. He met that critical requirement.
When opening statements were made at trial, plaintiff's counsel asserted that with respect to proof of entitlement

Immune response to extracellular and somatic antigens in streptococcal infection and sequelae.
The aim of the present study is to define that temporal relationships of the IgM and IgG responses to streptococcal group A carbohydrate (CHO) in rabbits and in man. Rabbits were immunized with group A streptococci and the development of anti-group A carbohydrate (ACHO) was studied. ACHO which appeared one week after the beginning of immunization belonged to the 19S class of immunoglobulins (IgM). A two- to four-fold rise in ACHO titers and immunoglobulins of the 7S class (IgG) were observed after two weeks. Three weeks after the beginning of immunization, the ACHO titer was at a maximum. In the following months no further rises in titer were seen, and the antibodies belonged mostly to the IgGCustomers Who Viewed This Also Viewed

VIKTOR BOUT'S CFO ASKS FOR MORE TIME IN HIS EXTRADITION CASE IN AUSTRALIA
Richard Ammar Chichakli, who is currently in custody in Australia, in connection with extradition to face charges in the United States, has sought and received additional time to examine court filings. Chichakli, the reputed money launderer for imprisoned arms trafficker Viktor Bout, alleged that he has not seen all the relevant extradition documents, and his court-appointed attorney's unopposed request for additional time was granted.
Though the American extradition request has apparently been accepted by Australian authorities, the case has now been postponed until 15 April.through the educational programs offered including public programming, school programs, and summer programs. After reading the book, I felt that I could adapt these advices to my own practices as a museum educator.
The first section answers the question: What is Relevance? Simon had five different examples of relevance in the field. One of the parts called “A Walk on the Beach”, she discussed the 130-year anniversary party for the first surfers in the Americas her museum the Santa Cruz Museum of Art and History planned; three teenage Hawaiian princes put on the first surfing demonstration ever documented on the mainland of North America in Santa Cruz. What she learned from the experience was “…relevance is just a start. It is a key. You’ve got to get people in

centuries it retained an unmistakable individuality of its own.’[115] Cochrane remarks that the building of purely Gothic churches had been preceded in the 11th century by the occasional use of pointed arches, which happened in Monte Casino, before the idea was pursued at Cluny (France).[116] From Chartres and the Ile de France, Durant explains, the Gothic style swept into the French provinces, and crossed frontiers into England, Sweden, Germany, Spain, at last into Italy. French architects and craftsmen accepted foreign commissions.[117] England welcomed such architecture because she was in the 12th century half French; `the Channel but a river between the two sides of a British realm.’[118] The transition from Romanesque to Gothic, Durant pursues, was almost simultaneous in England and France; about the same time that thepointed arch was being used at St. Denis (1140) it was appearing in Durham and Gloucester cathedrals, at Fountains Abbey and Malmesbury.[119] Henry III (1216-72) admired everything French, envied the architectural glory of St Louis's reign, and taxed his people into poverty to rebuild Westminster Abbey.[120]Cochrane also touches upon the Islamic linkage of geometry and construction, and its resulting impact on the West, observing how careful study of pre Norman churches in England, so many of which have skew chancels, shows that builders found it difficult to achieve true rectangles.[121] She notes how the transition in England was rapid following the First Crusade in particular (the other route of influence other than France directly.)[122]

Tiger temple and Background of Tiger Temple or Wat Pa Luangta Bua Yannasampanno was established by the Abbot Phra Acham Phoosit (Chan) Kanthitharo in 1994 by order of his teacher Venerable Luangta Maha Bua Yannasampanno ( The Highly respected and famous meditation guru) The name of the monastery was also given by him to follow his full name.
Since its openning the Temple gained a reputation as a wildlife sanctuary. It atarted with an injured jungle fowl given to the monk by the villagers. Then peacocks came attracted by the calls of a, by then, rather large flock of jungle fowl. an injured wild boar stumbled into the monastery and the monks cared for him until he could be released back into

trick. She would walk down Sharron's back and Sharron would bend over so that the cat wouldn't fall. Then, when Sharron was bent flat-backed, she'd sit on the small of Sharron's back. I do have a photo of this I hope to put up soon.
She would only lay on Sharron's stomach when Sharron was under a blanket -- otherwise she'd sit by Sharron's feet (her "guardpost" we would say). So she would get Sharron to sleep under a quilt in August, with the temperatures hovering in the 90s or even 100s at night.
Taffy, The Cleric of Tuna
Taffy had a philosophy, called "the Zen of Tuna" and it ran something like this: any problem can be solved with enough tuna fish. To say that she loved tuna seems redundant-- she was a cat after all -- but more than any other cat I've seen, she loved tuna. She tried her zen of tuna at the end; the last thing she ate was a bite of tuna from my hand when she was too weak to stand up.
Taffy, In The Eyes of Her Friends
These are the goodbye messages from some of Taffy's friends. If you knew her, and want to write something, please e-mail me and I will post it.
Taffy died rather suddenly of severe kidney failure. She was in decent health on Friday, jumping on the table, eating her catfood, purring and playing. By Saturday she was having problems jumping on the bed. I brought her into the vet Sunday, and had hopes she would recover.

Van Werven invests in new plastic recycling line in Dublin
The Van Werven Plastic Recycling site in Dublin (Ireland) has been expanded with an automatic washing, sorting and grinding line. The line started at the beginning of March. The first load of secondary raw materials has now been sold to our customer.
In November 2017, Van Werven started sorting hard plastics in Ireland. The further recycling process then took place in Biddinghuizen. In particular, the incoming volume grew rapidly in the second half of 2018. Large enough to be able to invest in an installation that further processes the sorted polyolefins (PE and PP) into a secondary raw material. The new line was built with the latest innovations and experiences with the recycling lines at other Van Werven locations. TheSave Article

While he has taken over Crimea with relative ease, Vladimir Putin is presiding over the loss of an asset no doubt far dearer to the Russian people: hegemony in chess. To see the evidence, drop by the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Saint Louis any Sunday afternoon—if you can squeeze in, that is.
For the better part of the 20th century, the Soviet Union dominated chess. Viewing superiority in the game as proof of...

itself as it did under the Republic. The senators, however, petrified of civil war, preferred a single arbitrator whose favour they might court through sycophancy and backstabbing. None of this worked on Tiberius, who was austere, modest and socially awkward. He tried to hide his increasing disdain for his servile subjects, but occasionally lost his temper and scared everyone witless. When he’d sarcastically rejected every form of flattery, people gave in and started hating him. Exhausted and embittered, he retired to an island with his books, hoping that the senate would recover some dignity in his absence. This didn’t happen. The backstabbing increased, and the legend arose that Tiberius was a monster engaged in any nefarious pursuit you can imagine (since disliking the limelight was unheard of). Towhat extent this is true, we can’t say; but Tiberius prided himself on not being hurt by this sort of thing, and his tragedy is that it obviously hurt him very deeply. When he was told that his closest advisor, whom he’d left in charge at Rome, had poisoned his son, he lost it, and ordered his first executions (after seventeen years of moderate, prosperous rule). He only had a further six, miserable years to live; he died unmourned, and was succeeded by his adopted grandson Caligula. That’s another story.
Almost a century later, the fascinating historian Tacitus tried to put Tiberius in a wider context in his monumental work The Annals: Why Monarchy is Evil (my subtitle). Tacitus was a shrewd analyst who crafted his history with as

that many marriages fall apart.
In rich countries, the institution of marriage increasingly confers advantages on people who already have many. Affluent, highly educated men and women marry late and after careful consideration. Their marriages are highly successful—on average, almost certainly the happiest and most fulfilling that the world has ever seen. Among this privileged group, divorce is increasingly rare. The marrying classes of the West are building unions as resilient as the dutiful ones found in poorer countries.
For many others, however, marriage seems to be moving out of reach. The working classes have become much less likely to marry than the middle classes, and when they do, their unions are more liable to break down quickly. Most working-class people still idealise marriage, but think of it as somethingNew York gay couple Matt Lasner and his husband Attorney Dan Goldstein targeted Ivanka Trump and her family today at JFK Airport in New York City.

A talented team of architects and consultants guided the restoration of the grandeur of the auditorium and lobby spaces, while providing upgrades to the heating, air conditioning and performance systems: audio, stage lighting. In the case of the County Basie Theater, the return of the painted finishes (as noted, had all been over painted with white) creates a vastly richer theatrical experience, and connects us to a time when great performers of the past performed here. In his letter of support for the award nomination, Mayor Pasquale Menna of Red Bank noted “Aside from distinguishing the Borough as a home for arts, culture and entertainment, and as a place that welcomes the preservation and restoration of our local landmarks, the Count Basie Theatre isall facets of historic preservation.

is the 12th and final stamp in the Celebrating Lunar New Year series. The Year of the Boar begins on Feb. 5, 2019, and ends on Jan. 24, 2020. The stamp art depicts several bright pink peach blossoms on a branch. Peach blossoms, which often bloom just in time for Lunar New Year, mark the beginning of spring in Chinese culture. Artist Kam Mak created this original painting. Art director and stamp designer Ethel Kessler incorporated elements from the previous series of Lunar New Year stamps — Clarence Lee’s cut-paper design of a boar and the Chinese character for “boar,” drawn in grass-style calligraphy by Lau Bun — to create continuity between the series.
Gregory Hines
The 42nd stamp in the Black Heritage series honors Gregory Hines (1946–2003), whose uniquestyle of tap dancing injected new artistry and excitement into a traditional American form. A versatile performer who danced, acted and sang on Broadway, on television and in movies, Hines developed the entertainment traditions of tap into an art form for a younger generation and is credited with renewing interest in tap during the 1990s. Art director Derry Noyes designed the stamp, which features a 1988 photograph by Jack Mitchell.
Cactus Flowers
This issuance celebrates the beauty of cactus flowers with a booklet of 20 stamps. Each stamp depicts a photograph of the flower of one of these ten cacti: Opuntia engelmannii, Rebutia minuscula, Echinocereus dasyacanthus, Echinocereus poselgeri, Echinocereus coccineus, Pelecyphora aselliformis, Parodia microsperma, Echinocactus horizonthalonius, Thelocactus heterochromus and Parodia scopa. Within the booklet, each stamp design is featured twice.

comprising this particular claim, we reach the conclusion that no such showing has been made with respect thereto.
(a) The item for $442.50, respecting the flattening of the fill slope at Station 790, arises out of certain additional excavation beyond that indicated on the original plans, which the contractor was called on to perform at a point where a State road intersected the new highway, in order to lower the grade of the road and make it accessible to the highway. As a result it became necessary to dispose of the excess material excavated. This was done by widening a nearby fill and shoulder. Plaintiff was paid for the additional excavation at the unit price, which price, according to the specifications, covered as well the work of disposing ofseeks separate payment for hauling away the earth excavated in connection with the construction of a paved gutter ordered by the engineer to replace an unpaved ditch which was starting to erode, and for expense incurred in redressing the slope where this material had been temporarily deposited. Plaintiff has been paid at his unit prices for the excavation and gutter work from which this material was derived. The specifications and special conditions provide that such price and payment shall be full compensation for such incidental items of work connected therewith as the disposition of surplus material, that surplus excavation shall be used to widen embankments or flatten slopes, or shall be deposited in such other places as the engineer may direct, and that such work will not be

overall goal of each philosophy was to set a standard of acceptable living that would ensure harmony and success for the society. However, each was different and thus had different results. The best way for the people of China to succeed in a harmonious, respectable society occurred when both Confucianism and Legalism were combined.
Confucianism resulted from a Chinese philosopher named Kongfuzi (551-479 B.C.E), also known as Confucius, becoming disheartened with the way the government ignored his ideas of how to create a just, harmonious society. His teachings, which he had passed on to his followers/students, include the Analects. It is within this document that he tried to teach men how to be gentlemen. If a man were able to follow the steps to becoming a gentleman and completethe duties of his status, that gentleman could influence others in society to be honorable, hard working, honest, and just. However, within Confucianism, class and gender was a huge factor. Women were often considered less important as were lower class peoples. Only the well off male members of society could receive the required education required to be a...

Comparing and Contrasting Confucianism and Legalism
Confucius once said, “The more man meditates upon good thoughts, the better will be his world and the world at large.” Amidst the chaos of political instability and constant warring of the Zhou era, many philosophers arose that impacted China in the fields of politics, religion, and philosophy. Two of these philosophers were Confucius, who lived from 551 to 479

of artists in the Global North, thus signaling a sea change in the international art world (Belting, in Weibel and Buddensieg 2007). Art historians, prior to Belting had long stipulated that the birth of modern art in 19th and 20th century Europe was partially predicated on inspirations from outside Europe in the guise of Orientalism, Chinoiserie, Japonisme, or “primitivism,” yet these modern artists were almost exclusively from Europe and – later – North America. Non-European artists went largely unnamed and unrecognized, as French surrealist poet André Breton’s famous mur d’atelier revealed. Modern art from the Global South or rapidly modernizing states in Eurasia and East Asia, was often dismissed as derivative of Western art, while contemporary traditional art was considered inauthentic (cf. Kasfir 1992).
Simultaneously, anthropologist Michael Herzfeld (2004)value.
TheMagiciens de la Terre exhibition marked the coming out of contemporary artists from Asia, Africa, Latin America and Oceania on the global arts scene, and brought out in their participation in numerous exhibitions such as the Modernités plurielles at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, but also in biennales, art festivals, art fairs, and auctions around the world. Simultaneously, art institutions and events outside of Europe and North America gained in global prominence, by adopting the cultural forms, classificatory devices and exhibitionary technologies developed in Euro-America and applying those in their own contexts and for their own purposes. One could say that while the modern period witnessed the emergence of a global Europe, the current “post-postcolonial” period is marked by the globalization of the other continents – at least

The master plan features a huge conservatory as the project centerpiece, as well as a series of gardens, meadows, pathways, plazas, horticulture exhibits and educational facilities.
The first phase is to feature a 4,000-square-foot education center amid four outdoor gardens and a plaza, along with a pollinating meadow, an entryway off Frankfort, a walking path to Beargrass Creek and an initial roadway. Their total cost is estimated at $6.4 million.
If all goes well, the educational facility could be available for group rentals in early 2019, but some additional money needs to be raisedFischer said in a statement that the gardens project has the ability to be "a great amenity for the city and for tourism. The unique location near Waterfront Park gives the project lots of potential. There is a passionate team of people dedicated to making the project a reality."
Talk of a major botanical project harkens back to the mid-1980s. A project was originally proposed at what became the University of Louisville Shelby Campus off Hurstbourne Parkway. And at one time the world-renown landscape architect, the late Roberto Burle Marx was selected to design a Louisville project.
But it never materialized, and the old landfill on River Road has been the preferred site for the last dozen years or so.
