Assets to Get Flipped
In February 2000 Corrales, an inventor, organized and incorporated Motion Graphix to license and sell photographic and imaging technologies he had developed or improved. In May 2000 the company issued 51 percent of its 1,000 shares of common stock to Corrales (510 shares) and 49 percent (490 shares) to Souther, and the board of directors approved bylaws requiring the approval of a majority of the shares represented and voting to validate an action taken by the company unless a greater number was required by law.[1] In 2001 Corrales assigned to Motion Graphix his rights in two pending patents. In August 2004 Katten Muchin began representing Motion Graphix.
In early August 2005, following a dispute between Corrales and Souther over Corrales's right to engage in personal businessamended the complaint by substituting Galimi for one of the fictitiously named Doe defendants; on July 14, 2008 it filed another Doe amendment naming Katten Muchin.[6] Galimi demurred on July 28, 2008, primarily contending he had left Katten Muchin in November 2006, months before the allegedly fraudulent asset sale took place, and thus could not be liable. On August 13, 2008 Galimi moved for sanctions against the Estate and its attorneys, contending the claims against him were baseless and had been brought for an improper purpose (Code Civ. Proc., § 128.7, subd. (a)). On that same day, Katten Muchin also demurred, contending the complaint lacked any specific allegations against Galimi or the firm.
At a hearing on September 5, 2008 the trial court sustained both demurrers without leave to

Id. ¶¶ 8-10. Moreover, Stanford alleges that Harrod "knew [he] had not had training and did not have the proper protective gear" when he ordered him into the manhole. Id. ¶ 11. In complying with Harrod's order, Stanford further complains that "he was filled with fear and apprehension during the time he was in the manhole and later after he came out of the manhole." Id. ¶ 12. Stanford therefore requests that this Court award him appropriate damages of not less than $1,000,000 for intentional infliction of emotional distress and for

Act, D.C.Code 1981, § 1-2512; and the Labor Management Relations Act, 29 U.S.C. § 185. Butler Class Action Complaint at 3. The specific allegations in that complaint concerning Stanford are that
Plaintiff and proposed class representative, Calvino Stanford is a black employee of PEPCO and a resident of Washington, DC. He is employed as a field technician pay grade 6. When he originally applied for employment at PEPCO he was given false and misleading information concerning the job he should apply for based on his qualifications. Shortly after being hired he learned that there was a higher paying job for which he was qualified and asked to be transferred to that higher paying job, but he was denied. The company continued to advertise the job and three months laterhired a white female who was less qualified than Calvino. Plaintiff Stanford has been subjected to unlawful discrimination on the basis of his race in the terms, conditions and privileges of his employment.
Id. at 5. Thus, the allegations in the Butler complaint concerning Stanford did not include the allegations in the plaintiff's current complaint pertaining to the actions of PEPCO employee Harrod. However, references to Harrod's alleged conduct was interjected in the Butler case in the plaintiff's Opposition to PEPCO's Motion for Summary Judgment ("Butler's Opp'n"), where, in addition to a series of contentions against PEPCO, the plaintiff related the allegations pertaining to Harrod as follows:
During 2003 Mr. Harrod, a lead man, was told while in Mr. Brown's office that Mr. Stanford had never received manhole training or

Way back when in the late 1970s, when traces of the decade-long struggle between the left and the government were still visible on the Italian street, one weekly found an original means of advertising. It hung big white boards in train stations, where people could paint out their frustrations with the world.
One could liken it to the message of today's Facebook revolution: Boycott, slander, but stay in your cage. In exchange you get a document-exchange, retail-marketing and deodorized-social-experience network. Political activism? Just the opposite: an addiction to passivity.
Contrary to rumor, Egypt's was not the Facebook revolution. The noted Hebrew University history professor Emmanuel Sivan urges journalists to rouse themselves and venture beyond Tahrir Square to see the scope of the Egyptian uprising. Laziness is unlikely to be theonly factor at work here. The giddiness over the "Facebook revolution" is part of the Western narcissism cultivated by the commercial media, which are easily excited - "They fomented revolution with the tools we gave them!" - and just as easily disappointed: "They failed despite our tools." But the Kefaya ("enough" ) movement has been growing in the Egyptian street for nearly a decade, feeding off the stored-up anger in the country's trade unions and popular organizations.
That is certainly not what happened here in Israel. Last summer's social protest movement may left a lasting mark on public opinion but it died because it failed to translate the convenience of the cage - the Internet and television - into power for itself. In the past the best minds of

for air strikes against ISIL. On October 7, members of Parliament voted 157 to 134 in favour of the motion. It was the right decision - but it was made for a lot of the wrong reasons.
For starters, Harper relied on the spurious argument that Canada should go to war in the interest of self-defence. ISIL, he argued, presents a direct danger to Canadian "families". He raised the spectre of "terrorist attacks outside the region, including against Canada". But he did so without offering any concrete proof. ISIL's reach certainly stretches through the Middle East and Europe. However, Canadian authorities have yet to make the case that it poses any kind of an equivalent threat to Canada. The most recent report from Ottawa shows more than 130 Canadiansthe threat ISIL poses to Canadians and their families and exaggerate the impact a handful of Canadian fighter jets would have in dismantling the so-called Islamic Caliphate was hearing the opposition's arguments against the government's modest proposal.
Thomas Mulcair, leader of the NDP and the country's official opposition, suggested Canada's military engagement would result in the mathematically impossible: "Thousands or tens of thousands of [Canadian] veterans". Liberal leader Justin Trudeau resorted to tasteless, nonsensical jokes. He denounced Harper's offer of Canadian air support against ISIL as the Conservatives "trying to whip out [their] CF-18s and show how big they are".
Canada's participation in the international coalition against ISIL deserved more high-minded debate. There are compelling reasons for Canada to join the international coalition against ISIL, not the least of which

[Japan Clinical Oncology Group for cooperative cancer clinical trials and role of the statistical center in the management of cancer clinical trials].
In 1978, clinical investigators decided to collaborate on clinical trials through a "cooperative group" mechanism in order to promote multidisciplinary treatment of cancer under the auspices of a Grant-in-Aid for Cancer Research from the Ministry and Health and Welfare. This cooperative study group was formally renamed in 1990 and became "The Japan Clinical Oncology Group (JCOG)," and its Statistical Center was housed in the National Cancer Center Hospital. This paper introduces various JCOG activities and the role of the Statistical Center.in the bakery and deli areas, sweeping and scrubbing the main floor, cleaning the breakroom and bathrooms, and emptying the trash. His supervisor told him that in any time remaining after these jobs were finished he was to work at removing the dirt and wax which built up in the corners and aisle edges. This work could not be done with the machine, and the area had to be cleaned by hand. Beginning in October 1982, he received warnings that he was failing to clean the corners and aisle edges. He received two warnings in October and three warnings in November. On November 27, 1982, he was told he had until January to have the floor corners and edges cleaned. On January 11, 1983, he was fired for

violation of the automatic stay for H & K, Inc. and the Custom Center, Inc. The IRS posted the freeze codes during the week beginning March 29, 1992.
On March 31, 1992, the trustee sent a letter to the IRS demanding that the IRS immediately reverse the setoffs and remit the tax refund to him. This letter correctly identified the Custom Center, Inc., as the debtor, but it was mailed to the Service Center in Memphis. Special Procedures did not receive the letter until May 14, 1992.
On May 28, 1992 the IRS first discussed the trustee's letter with its legal counsel. On that date, upon advice of counsel, the IRS sent a Request for Adjustment (Form 3870(c)) to the Memphis Service Center requesting that the setoff be reversed andfollows:
Taxes which the Internal Revenue Service may find due after giving the trustee a so-called "quickie" tax refund and later doing an audit of the refund are also payable as administrative expenses. The tax code permits the trustee of an estate which suffers a net operating loss to carry back the loss against an earlier profit year of the estate or of the debtor and to obtain a tentative refund for the earlier year, subject, however, to a later full audit of the loss which led to the refund. The bill, in effect, requires the Internal Revenue Service to issue a tentative refund to the trustee (whether the refund was applied for by the debtor or by the trustee), but if the refund later proves to have been

deaths of "uninvolved civilians" or led to claims of alleged misconduct.
In 65 of those cases, the MAG "did not find a basis for opening a criminal investigation". It ordered further investigation in the remaining cases.
According to a report released by the Israeli military, the MAG found that in an unspecified number of cases "there is indeed basis for the claim that as a result of IDF [Israeli Defence Forces] attacks, uninvolved civilians were killed or injured".
This was attributed to "unintended damage" or "operational errors".
The report said: "This result, while regrettable, does not indicate a violation of the Laws of Armed Conflict, and stems directly from actions of Palestinian terrorist organisations which have chosen to conduct their unlawful activities from within the civilian population."
It also described the deaths ofthe Dalou family as "regrettable", saying the air strike was targeted at "a senior terrorist and several other terrorists … who constituted a military target". It went on: "Operations staff had not foreseen that, as a result of the attack, collateral damage would be caused to uninvolved civilians to the extent alleged."
Surviving members of the Dalou family have insisted there were no militants among them. Three weeks after the air strike, Bodour al-Dalou, 25, who lost her mother, brother, two sisters, a sister-in-law, an aunt and four nephews and nieces, told the Guardian: "There were no fighters in the house. I have no idea why the Israelis targeted us. I have heard they said it was a mistake, but what difference does that make?"

resident Terhemen Angor said the attack occurred at St. Ignatius Catholic church, where worshipers had gathered.
"People started scampering and wailing," said Angor, saying that scores were "gunned down in cold blood while many sustained injuries including bullet wounds."
State police spokesman Terver Akase told CNN that after the shooting, the radicals began setting homes on fire.
"The herdsmen burned nearly 50 houses during the attack and sacked the entire community, " Akase said. "We expect arrests to be made because they (attackers) are becoming more brazen," he added.
Nigerian groups, including the Benue Valley Professional Network, called for an end to the violence, which has seen hundreds of Christians, many of them farm-owners and villagers, killed since the start of the year.

ICC Regional Manager Nathan Johnson told The Christian Post in an interview earlier in April that the religious aspect of the violence must not be ignored.
"Though there are socioeconomic and ethnic components to these attacks, the majority of attacks are directed at Christian villages. If the attacks were simply driven by socioeconomic or ethnic factors, churches would not be common targets during these attacks. In most of the villages that have been ransacked over the past decade, churches and pastoral homes have been destroyed," Johnson told CP at the time.

Police say Richard Henry Bain from Mont Tremblant is the suspect arrested after a shooting that left a 48-year-old man dead and another man critically wounded outside a Parti Québécois election victory party last night.
Police have also confirmed both victims were shot outside the Metropolis theatre in downtown Montreal just before midnight Tuesday. They said one of the victims, with the help of police, was dragged inside the building and the door was closed. That's when the suspect tried to burn the door down, said police.
The victim has been identified by provincial police as Denis Blanchette, a 48-year-old stagehand at the theatre. Police said Blanchette was the father of an eight-year-old girl.
'It sounded like fireworks'
Eyewitness Martin Bouffard was videotaping the celebration for the CBC's Radio-Canada and heading tothe back of the building when he heard a loud bang while he was trying to film the PQ leader's exit.

"It sounded like fireworks. Every time we did the student protest, we heard fireworks. It was exactly the same thing. I saw some policemen with their guns in their hands rushing to the back."
Bouffard said he saw the suspect lying on the ground on his back, along with two or three policemen. He said there were two guns by his side.
"My mind was on, 'What was going to happen to the people inside?' The fire was so huge," he said.
During questioning, the suspect was transported to hospital but police did not say why or whether he's still

taxpayer a raw deal. At the time Goldman got its give-away, Henry Paulson was treasury secretary -- he was also Goldman's CEO when it put on its trades with AIG -- and former Goldman chairman Stephen Friedman was then chairman of the New York Federal Reserve Bank. Goldman CEO Lloyd Blankfein was the only Wall Street executive at one of Paulson's bailout meetings. Goldman was inside the tent advising on the most self-serving way to save itself and gain unfettered access to public funds.
In the fall of 2008, Goldman Sachs became a bank holding company before switching to a less regulated financial holding company in August 2009*. This prevented a run on Goldman Sachs and gave it permanent access to Fed funds, taxpayer money. Goldman pays rates nearthe Latin word sedēre ("to sit"), whereas it traces precede (for example) to the prefix pre- (or rather prae-) plus the Latin word cedere ("to go"). (In case you're wondering, the Eleventh Collegiate traces proceed to the prefix pro- plus cedere ("to go"), so the cede/ceed split evidently doesn't go back to a distinction in Latin, as the cede/sede split does.)
In any event, Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary series began acknowledging the existence of supercede as a variant only in the Eighth Collegiate (1973), which isn't all that long ago in Galapagos tortoise years. I can't think of any reason to prefer that spelling to the longer established, more common, and completely uncontroversial spelling supersede.

As per Navy officials, the video had been shot during Rajnath Singh's stay (File Photo)
The office of Defence Minister Rajnath Singh released a video clip of him on Monday in which he is seen singing the anthem of INS Vikramaditya onboard the aircraft carrier along with crew of the ship.
The 2:19 minutes-long clip was posted on the Twitter handle of the Defence Minister's office.
Dressed in a dark outfit, Rajnath Singh can be seen humming the anthem "Nau Senake samman mein, uske garima aur shaan mein" in a packed house onboard the INS Vikramaditya.
"The anthem is that of INS Vikramaditya. It has been written and composed by the crew of the aircraft carrier," a senior Navy officer told IANS.
As per Navy officials, the video had been shot during RajnathSingh's stay -- 'day-on-sea' -- on INS Vikramaditya from Saturday afternoon till the forenoon of Sunday.
Rajnath Singh also took part in yoga practice with the crew of the ship on Sunday morning. He had boarded the aircraft carrier from Mumbai on Saturday after commissioning India's second Scorpene-class attack submarine at Mazagon Docks.
The Western Fleet of the Indian Navy demonstrated its prowess and fire power to the Defence Minister during his 24-hour stay on the ship.
"Spent 24 hours at INS Vikramaditya. This Aircraft Carrier is the 'Sikandar of Samundar'. Visiting 'Vikramaditya' was one of the most memorable experiences of my life. A Day at Sea has given me a new perspective about the capabilities and power of the @indiannavy," Rajnath Singh tweeted.

Looking around at the lamentable state of the neighbourhood he insisted that residents just wanted the basics.
"Today we finally have hope," unemployed father-of-three Ghassan Matar told AFP. "People are tired, they have had enough."
Across the sprawling Sadr City district -- named after Moqtada's father, assassinated spiritual leader Mohamed Sadeq Sadr -- streets are rutted after years of neglect and litter spills out of dustbins.
Partial vote tallies showed Sadr and his Marching Towards Reform coalition with his allies the communists leading after Saturday's vote -- making him a key powerbroker in deciding the next government.
In the impoverished stronghold of Iraqi cleric Moqtada Sadr in Baghdad supporters of the Shiite populist were Monday hopeful for improvements as results put him on top in parliament elections.

Shiite bastion Sadr City provided lots of fighters for the Hashed al-Shaabi (Popular Mobilisation Units) that helped Iraqi forces inflict defeat on the Islamic State group.
Now people were celebrating another win after the performance of the Marching Towards Reform alliance at the polls.
"We beat them 5-0," shouted a young man as he rode by on an rickshaw.
In the same street, Salah Jamal, 24, was cleaning the pavement in front of the clothing store where he works.

reasonably be interpreted to show that they had the likely capacity to tempt the official to depart from his sworn public duty." (at page 268)
What the public policy requires is the exercise of the official duty unaffected by personal considerations. In the case of Councilman Wollen's official action there is no evidence of a departure from his sworn public duty in any form of personal advantage. But in the subject matter of the legislation he had a well developed and intense private concern. Its very presence could have impaired his capacity to act in the interest of the citizens at large. As the court declared in Piggott v. Borough of Hopewell, 22 N.J. Super. 106 (Law Div. 1952):
"The interest which disqualifies a member of council to vote isNo reason to be worried?
Ehud Olmert looks out the window and sees a prosperous country with prospects of peace with its neighbors, a country in which it's already more fun to live than it was a year ago. Yet the prime minister's mood during this wide-ranging holiday interview is hardly festive.
The holiday interview with Ehud Olmert took place on Wednesday at the Prime Minister's Residence, exactly a year to the day after his election victory. Olmert knows that the public expects him to engage in spiritual soul-searching after the hardest year of his life, but he is not eager to deliver the goods. He is out to show that he is, in the language of the legendary comedy troupe, Hagashash Hahiver, "unaffrontable" and "unsaddenable." The loss of trust

done they could be labeled as bad mothers who have killed a baby. People are still very conservative on this issue."
But Strek says she is optimistic the situation could gradually improve.
The recent protests were inspired by the success of an earlier demonstration against a proposed bill to ban abortion in all cases except when the mother's life is threatened, and included prison terms for women who have an abortion and doctors who perform the procedure. In October of 2016, around 24,000 women and men dressed in black took part in the biggest march since the fall of communism in Poland. Many of the women also refused to work or do any housework that day, inspired by a similar demonstration in Iceland in the 1970s when 90 percent ofwomen refused to work for a day in protest at poor wages.
The proposed law was canceled and protesters ran a counter-petition calling for expanded abortion rights. The petition, named Ratujmy Kobiety ("Let's save women"), gained over 250,000 signatures in a few months. However, the government has refused to consider it.
The October of 2016 march and subsequent petition breathed fresh life into Poland's women's rights movement and "so many civil society groups that were born out of that march," Strek says. "For many of the people who came to the protest it was the first time they had been to a demonstration."
Their primary target are younger Poles who have grown up without the restrictions of communism but who are often surprisingly nationalist and supportive of PiS.

Council throws down the challenge to get Leeds recycling
Leeds City Council is challenging the city to recycle more, with almost a third of the average general waste bin still made up of materials that can be recycled.
Items like paper, glass, plastic and metal can all be recycled, but are still appearing in the general waste bin. As part of a city wide awareness campaign the council has issued a handy recycling guide to all Leeds residents to help them understand what they can recycle.
The equivalent weight of over 10 double decker buses of recycling waste is collected in the city each day. However, the people of Leeds can go even further and make a difference by recycling all of the everyday items that can be put in theRussia's flag air carrier Aeroflot has taken another blow to its reputation after a newspaper detailed an incident in which more than 100 passengers demanded that an apparently drunk pilot be taken off the plane.
The first sign of trouble came when the pilot slurred his words during the pre-flight announcement, The Moscow Times said on Tuesday. The paper quoted passengers aboard the flight from Moscow to New York on December 28, including one of its own reporters.
"The first thought that occurred to me was, 'This guy is drunk,' " passenger Khatuna Kobiashvili told the newspaper, an English-language daily. "His speech was so slurred it was hard to tell what language he was speaking."

Melanie Ho, however, urged the judge to sentence the man to one year and two months' jail. She said this was his first brush with the law and has "otherwise been an upstanding citizen who has contributed significantly to the society and the people around him".
On Friday, Ms Ho told the court that her client will be appealing against his conviction and sentence. He was offered bail of $20,000.
For each count of molestation, offenders can be jailed for up to two years and fined or caned. The man cannot be caned as he is 50 years old.
A Ministry of Education spokesman said on Friday night that the ministry will be taking further disciplinary action against the man, who has been suspended from duty since November 2013.Friday, February 03, 2017
There was a disturbing article in the Independent a few weeks ago about the UK's recruitment of child soldiers. The UK is one of the few countries which allows people under 18 to join the armed forces, and the British Army specifically targets schools for recruits. Under-18's make up a quarter of their total recruits, and as they lack formal qualifications, end up being assigned to the infantry. Where they end up as cannon-fodder in America's imperial wars:
Sharrocks joined the Army in 2006, aged 17. He left in 2013 and has since suffered mental health problems. The UK is the only country in Europe – and one of only a handful in the world – that recruits under-18s into its Armed Forces. Groups campaigning against

Law School. As a result of his incarceration without bond until December, 1967, he was unable to continue at the law school. As a result of his conviction for forgery and uttering, James was incarcerated for twenty-one months from November, 1970, to August, 1972. The applicant earned a work-related commendation from prison officials during his incarceration and, from the time of his parole in August, 1972, until the *313 present, the applicant has not been involved in any criminal activity.
James has worked continuously at a variety of jobs while simultaneously attending college and law school. He graduated from the University of Baltimore Law School in 1980, applied for admission to the Bar of Maryland on May 17, 1980, and sat for and successfully passed the July, 1980, barcriminal conduct....
The ultimate test of present moral character applicable to original admissions to the Bar, is whether, viewing the applicant's character in the period subsequent to his misconduct, he has so convincingly rehabilitated himself that it is proper that he become a member of a profession which must stand free from all suspicion.... That the absence of good moral character in the past is secondary to the existence of good moral character in the present is a cardinal principle in considering applications for original admission to the Bar." Id. at 690. (Citations omitted.)
In applying these principles to the facts in Allan S., we said:

There he was discouraged from continuing with the interviews'and airing the story. He spoke with Ellen Caden legal counsel for CBS; she raised serious concerns about the interview and questioning that was going on with Dr. Wigand. She feared a long and drawn-out legal battle if the story was run. After the interview, 'Sixty Minutes' did run the story but Dr. Wigand was not in it. Mike Wallace of 'Sixty Minutes' stated, "although we have obtained invaluable information per taining to tobacco and the tobacco industry, we cannot report it to you at .this time because Dr. Wigand had signed the confidentiality agreementat Brown and Williamson." Mike Wallace was forced to admit he was gagging his - - - - courtesy pholo . own 'Insider'. CBS was being advised by their own attorneys who normally fight for the reporting integrity of CBS that they needed to back down and let this story go.

notes indicate that he failed to appear for either. Dr. Bobo, taking over as primary treating physician by Ener's choice, saw him on three different occasions in March. Dr. Bobo ordered vascular lab studies which proved normal. He reviewed Ener's medical records from Campbell Clinic, including a bone scan that had proven normal. He referred Ener for a Greenleaf capacity evaluation of his arm. Those tests did not demonstrate any physical incapacity because of indications of "submaximal effort" by Ener in completing the tests.
¶ 18. Dr. Bobo, after this thorough inquiry into Ener's condition, arrived at the conclusion in late March 1995 that "[t]here is no objective evidence of permanent anatomical impairment" arising out of Ener's injury. In August 1995, Dr. Bobo reconfirmed this conclusion after taking theadded precaution of consulting with his associate, Dr. Henard.
¶ 19. Only then did Ener return to Campbell Clinic, where he was seen by Dr. Calandruccio in November for the first time in some eight months. Dr. Calandruccio only saw Ener twice after his interlude under Dr. Bobo's care. Clinical notes introduced into evidence indicate that Dr. Calandruccio, after these two additional visits in November, could not diagnose the cause of Ener's persistent complaints of pain. Nevertheless, on December 8, 1995, Dr. Calandruccio's notes contain the following brief statement, unaccompanied by any explanation: "Permanent partial impairment rating: 10% of the right upper extremity." That one unsupported statement is the sum total of the evidence of a functional disability to Ener's arm. Ener, for reasons known only to him, elected

videotapes, Armstrong and representatives from ATC extensively discussed Armstrong's teaching techniques and the training aids he used to demonstrate these techniques. During this time, Armstrong presented a number of different items for possible inclusion in the video and infomercial, including the Birdie Puck and the Power Max discussed below. The kit, as finally developed and advertised on the infomercial, was titled "Maximizing Your Game and Everything About It" ("Maximizing Your Game").
The infomercial featured Wally Armstrong, as a professional golf player who gives instructions on how to play better golf, along with Kenny Rogers and Pat Summerall, as celebrities who testify that their golf games improved after they implemented some of Armstrong's instructions. The final version of the "Maximizing Your Game" kit included a three-tape, six-hour set of golfin 1990. Later that year, Brown and Armstrong entered into an agreement pursuant to which Armstrong appeared in a television commercial promoting the Forty XL, an earlier version of the Power Max. In the summer of 1991, Brown and Armstrong entered into another agreement pursuant to which Armstrong appeared in both a 20-minute video promoting *1299 Brown's Power Max and in a second version of the video, which was identical to the first, except that it added a 2-minute section discussing the Birdie Puck. (FS ¶ 56.) The contract between Brown and Armstrong for the production of the videos did not contain any restrictions on Armstrong's use of any ideas used in the videos. Brown assembled the second version of the video, together with the Birdie Puck, the

housed at the University of Alberta, Canada. The BHAP and University of Alberta have an Agreement of Cooperation with Irkutsk State University (Russian Federation), where the skeletal remains described in this paper are curated. Permission is granted through this agreement (a copy of which was submitted to the PLOS editors for review) for BHAP researchers to access and study the hundreds of middle Holocene---Neolithic through Bronze Age---human remains housed at Irkutsk State University. The specimen discussed in this manuscript (Gorodishche II, Burial 3) was excavated by the third author, Vladimir Ivanovich Bazaliiskii of Irkutsk State University. A copy of Bazaliiskii\'s excavation permit (\#608) from the Russian Academy of Science\'s Archaeological Institute was also submitted to the editors review. All the human skeletal remains described in this study arein the least because it represents one of the oldest examples of metastatic carcinoma documented in the world, and the earliest recorded in Northeast Asia. That the afflicted individual was a member of a hunter-gatherer population---and that several other possible cases of malignancy were observed in the same population---challenges long held assumptions regarding the demographic underrepresentation of older individuals among prehistoric foragers. In fact, it is more likely that misdiagnoses and/or inadequate documentation, the latter a reflection of skeletal preservation, are at least partially responsible for the perceived rarity of cancer in antiquity. An increased awareness among scholars of the skeletal manifestations of cancer metastases is essential in order to more fully understand the temporal and spatial distribution of neoplasia and to more clearly reconstruct its history and

to Naegleria-containing water. People die 1-18 days (median 5 days) after symptoms begin [4]. PAM is difficult to detect because the disease progresses rapidly so that diagnosis is usually made after death," the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports.
Three of the four known survivors were from the United States, beginning with one American surviving the disease in 1978. A patient in Mexico survived the illness in 2003, followed by a pair of American children 10 years later. The first was a 12-year-old girl and the second was a boy just eight years of age.
"[H]er brain swelling was aggressively managed with treatments that included cooling the body below normal body temperature (therapeutic hypothermia). This patient made a full neurologic recovery and returned to school. Her recovery hasbeen attributed to early diagnosis and treatment and novel therapeutics including miltefosine and hypothermia," the CDC reported.
The young boy likely suffered permanent brain damage from his ordeal with the highly-dangerous amoeba. Proper treatment for him began days after infection, compared with the hours prior to treatment for the young girl.
Some medical researchers believe the variation of the illness seen in 1978 may have been less dangerous than today's variety. Still, health officials in Louisiana are warning the public about the presence of the microorganism.
"[T]he Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals (DHH) confirmed the presence of the Naegleria fowleri ameba (sic) in the St. Bernard Parish Water System at the site of a leaking sampling station. The water system, which serves 44,000 residents in St. Bernard Parish, was tested

Miltefosine is a new drug being investigated as a possible treatment for the infection. The drug has already been found to be effective in eliminating Naegleria fowleri under laboratory conditions.
Health officials are telling residents of St. Bernard Parish that their tap water is safe to drink, but residents should avoid getting the liquid in their nasal cavity. The water system there is separate from that of New Orleans, just 17 miles away.

Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, a White House Ukraine adviser who testified in his Army uniform bedecked with medals, said he was shaken as he heard Trump ask Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to investigate Biden and the DNC in the July 25 phone call that launched the impeachment probe. Vindman, whose family fled Ukraine when he was 3, was forced to defend himself against charges from Trump allies that he had divided loyalties.
And U.S. Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland made clear the effort to extract investigations from Ukraine wasn’t a secret within the administration. He declared, “Everyone was in the loop.”

The name is found in the Targumim (Jastrow, "Dict.") and in Josephus ("Ant." i. 3, § 3). According to R. Eliezer (R. H.), the 17th of Ḥeshwan was the beginning of the Flood, but according to R.

"3. That with respect to the 1964-65 school year, all pupils in the Durham City School System shall be initially assigned in accordance with the plan submitted by the defendant [Board] on April 28, 1964, which plan is incorporated herein and made a part hereof by reference. Any pupil that has not already been assigned under that plan shall be assigned, and notice of the assignment given to the pupil and his parents or guardian, within five days from the date of this order."
20
The order further provided that not later than August 10, 1964, the Board should publish a notice in the daily Durhamnewspapers notifying the parents or guardians of all assigned pupils that the pupils have the absolute right, except as otherwise provided, to attend, during the 1964-65 school year, a school of their choice in the city system which teaches the grades to which the pupils have been assigned.
21
Thus, all pupils are to be initially assigned in accordance with the Board's plan; they are to be notified of their free choice to attend any school in the system but in the event of overcrowding the Board, with the approval of the court, can assign a child to the "next nearest predominantly white school" rather than to the school requested.

Nevertheless he tells me that in letting the trapped caver find peace at the end of ''Floyd Collins,'' he was unconsciously shifting the weight of his legacy to bear it better. ''To fail in the pursuit of something noble,'' he says, on a good day, ''is itself noble.''
As it turns out, though, legacies are not so easily shifted. Which may be why, as you track Guettel's work since the success of ''Floyd Collins,'' the terrain remains rocky.''Myths and Hymns,'' a kind of musical 12-step program, questions the possibility of redemption for sins against God, against other people and against one's own soul. (In one semiautobiographical song, a man abandons his pregnant girlfriend as she is about to have an abortion.) Produced theatrically as ''Saturn Returns,'' it sealed the composer's reputation -- while making that reputation harder to read. ''What's next for Mr. Guettel?'' asked Stephen Holden in his 1998 Times review. ''Another folk musical? An opera? Either or both are possible. The talent is there, and it's major.''
For a while it looked as if those questions might never be answered, as Guettel struggled with various demons and various writers (including Laurents, Alfred Uhry and finally Craig Lucas) to put ''Piazza'' together. The longer it

but not for him,'' she says now; Rodgers soon went on to write, with Sondheim and Laurents, his own American-in-Italy love story, the underrated ''Do I Hear a Waltz?'' But why didn't Mary Rodgers (as she was professionally known) compose ''Piazza'' herself? She had, after all, written the fine music for ''Once Upon a Mattress,'' among other shows. ''I had a pleasant talent but not an incredible talent,'' she says without self-pity. ''I was not my father or my son. And you have to abandon all kinds of things.'' So somewhere along the way she let her theatrical career slip away in favor of young-adult fiction (the ''Freaky Friday'' series) and the chairmanship of the Juilliard School. Not to mention motherhood. From her first marriage there were threechildren; from her second, to Guettel, himself a lifelong man of the theater, another three, all boys: Adam in the middle between Matthew and Alexander.
Painful things are dispensed so freely here, in such smart, neat proportions, that they might as well be martinis. Mary says that Adam seemed to come into his own for the first time when his brother Matthew, who had been sickly for nearly all of his four years, died of asthma. Until then, Adam had been quiet, picky, morose; desperate to get him to eat, they'd been reduced to letting him graze at little bowls of cut-up food they set on the kitchen floor. But after seeing his brother taken away, something changed. ''He came downstairs in his Doctor Dentons that evening,'' Mary recalls,

Nicki Minaj sorry for Malcolm X picture and racist term
Nicki Minaj has said sorry for using a famous picture of Malcolm X on her website, alongside a racial insult.
The image of the activist holding a gun was also posted on her Instagram page, promoting her new song.
After criticism on social media, Minaj posted an apology to the estate of Malcolm X.
Known for his civil rights work with black communities in the US, the African-American minister was assassinated 49 years ago this month.
The post included the image of Malcolm X captioned with Minaj's song title
"That was never the official artwork nor is this an official single. This is a conversation. Not a single," she wrote.
"I apologize to the Malcolm X estate if the meaning of the photo was misconstrued.his family or his legacy."
The song was made "to have fun" not "to be disrespectful", she added.
In her online apology, Minaj expressed confusion over why people had been offended by the image.
"What seems to be the issue now?" the 31-year-old wrote.
She added: "I am in the video shooting [the song] and there happened to be an iconic photo of Malcolm X ready to do the same thing for what he believed in!"
Minaj's personal representative declined to comment further.
The picture was deleted from Minaj's Instagram account, but was still on her website on Friday morning.
The track will appear on Minaj's next album and a compilation album featuring artists including Lil Wayne and Drake.

The 'Right There' singer vented to Reuters about the scrutiny the two stars are facing lately, and she wasn't happy about it at all -- especially because she's dealt with some on her own.
"I'm not gonna not live my life in fear of what people are going to say," Grande said bluntly about the public's obsession with her own personal life. "It's been more work to embrace, for a long time I was like, 'Why are they talking about that?' I just put out a #1 album on Billboard, can I talk about that?"
When asked about Cyrus, Grande snapped, "She's an adult she can do whatever the hell she wants, honestly. She looks amazing, she looks gorgeous. She looks stunning and she's having so much fun. If herchoices aren't for you, don't look at it, move on, talk about something else, worry about bettering your life, not hers — she's fine," she continued. "Her life is the best it could be right now, you know? That's what bothers me about people and about society. It's like, 'shut up.'"
Her sentiments were similar for Bieber, with whom she toured briefly this summer. "He's doing the same thing as every other boy in the world right now," Grande said sharply. "He's just under a microscope and he's being scrutinized by people that don't know him. I know him, and he's a good person — he really is, he's a nice person ... he's a good guy and he doesn't deserve what he's going through."

Steve Jobs biography said well structured, honest
One of the first pre-release reviews of Walter Isaacson's official biography of Steve Jobs has given it compliments for its treatment of the subject. The book seen by the New York Times aims to be the "biography of record" and is seen as a well-structured, though not lean, look at the span of Jobs' life. It "greatly admires" the subject, but it also gives the full breadth of Jobs' experience, from his relationship with those he knew to properly recreating the "passion and excitement" that followed key launches like the iPod.
The title is evocative of the eras it covers and gives insight into what led to a product, including the cross-disciplinary leaps that showed appreciationfor more than just technology.
The study also isn't uncritical of Jobs, reflecting a promise Jobs made that he wouldn't influence the contents of the book besides its cover. Apple's co-founder is frequently characterized as "obnoxious" and as having a two-sided personality. He had a "Zen awareness" and appreciated concepts of beauty and simplicity that others didn't, but he could also cut deep with personal and professional criticism, according to the overview.
Isaacson's book comes across as initially odd as it had Jobs referring to his life in the past tense, knowing he would soon die, and was coming less than a month after his actual death. The tone, however, also allowed for opportunities to discuss regrets, such as initially refusing surgery in a delay that may have affected his

New Delhi: In a major revelation, it has come to the fore that Underworld don Dawood Ibrahim used to fund Zakir Naik's NGO Islamic Research Foundation (IRF).
According to Zakir Naik's chief financial officer (CFO) Aamir Gazdar,"Dawood Ibrahim has funded Zakir Naik's NGO Islamic Research Foundation.", according to Zee Media.
Revealing big details about funding of Zakir Naik's NGO Islamic Research Foundation, Aamir Gazdar said,"the said funding by Dawood Ibrahim used to take place through a mediator - Sultan Ahmed."
The Enforcement Directorate had arrested Gazdar (48) on Feb 16 for alleged money laundering.
ED officials said they suspected that Gazdar handled funds and transactions worth Rs 200 crore on behalf of Naik and his NGO.
These important details have now revealed Zakir Naik's Pakistan and Dawood connection.
Authorities are investigating other details too.
Earlier,on Feb 17, a special court for Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) cases in Mumbai had remanded Aamir Gazdar, a close aide of controversial Islamic preacher Zakir Naik, in the custody of Enforcement Directorate.
"Enforcement Directorate custody granted till February 22," said the judge P R Bhavke.
The ED, while seeking the custody, said Naik completely controlled his (now banned) NGO, Islamic Research Foundation (IRF), and various other trusts he set up.
"Apart from IRF, Naik was also running various trusts in India as well as abroad, and he was in complete control over such instrumentalities which are being run by him in close cahoots with his confidante trustees Mohammed Naik (his brother) and Gazdar," the ED's remand application said.
Naik established certain dummy companies in India and abroad?

Legumes represent an important protein source worldwide. In Venezuela, they are generally prepared at home and are consumed by adults, as soup or stew, while children eat them in very small quantities. In order to include legumes in the children's diet, the following work was done using cowpea (Vigna sinensis) as an complement of chicken in the preparation of a nutritionally balanced formula, adapted to the requirements of children. Several formulas were developed and three of them were selected based on their acceptability. In the first formula, the protein source was only of chicken. In the second formula, the chicken was partially substituted by cowpea, and in the third formula, the protein source was only made

During the 9 years of the study, 3767 suspected cases of measles were reported, corresponding to a mean of 418 cases per year, with wide variation from one year to another. In south-west Nigeria, 10 187 suspected cases were reported in 2007, for a mean of 1697 cases per year \[[@pone.0213735.ref009]\]. The difference from our results may be demographic, as Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa, with 186 053 386 inhabitants in 2016, whereas the CAR is one of the least populous countries on the continent, with \< 5 000 000 inhabitants and sparse population density outside of Bangui \[[@pone.0213735.ref018]\]. Furthermore, the health systems may differ. In the CAR, there are few systems for notification, such asin Nigeria.
The delay in sending samples to the laboratory was satisfactory only in 2007, when 100% of samples were sent within the prescribed time. The target of 80% required by WHO was not reached in the other years, with a very low rate of 42.1% in 2009. These results are associated with poor roads, long distances and inadequate public transport in rural areas, as the focal points do not have private means of transport and use buses to transport samples. In certain areas, there is no public transport for several days, due not only to the poor roads but also sometimes to lack of security. Once a sample has been taken, therefore, it often cannot be transported immediately. A survey should be conducted of the situation in the

Kickstarter CEO Aziz Hasan and management will not voluntarily recognize Kickstarter United, its nascent employee union. (The staff is organizing with the Office and Professional Employees International Union (OPEIU) Local 153.) Instead, the company wants a National Labor Relations Board election.
In an email to the entire staff, Hasan expressed concern that a union would hurt the company. Kickstarter has faced a number of challenges, Hasan writes. “I recognize the need for better communication, definition around roles and responsibilities, clarity around compensation, and processes that allow for perspectives to be shared and captured across the organization.” The company also suffers from what Hasan characterizes as “a lack of trust among the people who work here.”

According to "Inside Star Trek: The Real Story," Bob Justman came down with a very serious infection in his hip just before the start of the second production year. This caused him to be hospitalized and miss working on some of the episodes produced early that season. So I wondered if he could have missed the production of TDM in late June of '67... but accoding to the book, he was back at work well before then. So just how did he fail to notice Decker's insignia in the dailies then?

as "brother" . There are many more episodes with Worf referring to his Rozhenko brother and/or Rozhenko parents as brother and parents respectively.
In addition Worf has the Klingon Designation "Son of Mohg" so he could be referred to as Lieutenant Mohg, or more correctly he is from the "House of Martok" so he could also be referred to as Lieutenant Martok, using Martok as the surname.
In the TOS novel: "The Final Reflection," "Vrenn Khemara" used this name after being adopted into the house of Khemara. So there is precedent to use the house name as a surname in the Klingon naming convention.http://memory-beta.wikia.com/wiki/Klingon_nomenclature>
But in light of his relationship with the Rozhenko's Worf should be called either informally as 'Worf' or formally as 'Lieutenant Rozhenko'.
Why is heway.*
Further he sires a child with a half human mate K'Ehleyr, and decides to have his child raised by his human parents despite calls for him to go to the Klingon homeworld to be schooled properly in Klingon custom. Later on Worf even leaves his child back with his parents because he feels it's better then a Klingon upbringing (DS9: "The Way of the Warrior"). Further an Alexander from the future comes back to try and kill himself and warns Worf of too human an upbringing, clearly showing that Worf did not have a predilection for all things Klingon or to even have his son raised that way (TNG: "Firstborn").
So some things he likes and takes that are Klingon, and some things he embraces are Human and Starfleet.

leaning Republican.
Beyond the conclusion that newspapers respond to the ideology of their markets, Shapiro and Gentzkow also found that newspaper chains don't impose an ideology on their papers nationwide.
But the conclusion I think will cause a stir among the media-bias crowd is this: "[W]e find that the average newspaper's language is similar to that of a left-of-center member of Congress." They add their results are "consistent" with a study from 2005 that claimed the media had a strong liberal bias.
Overall, the new study finds the average newspaper has a "slant" of .47, or slightly left of center. It says three major newspapers–the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, and the Washington Post–have a slant of .43 and are similar to "a fairly liberal congressperson" such as DemocraticRepublican "death tax." But that calculation includes every time the Post wrote "real estate tax" in the metro, business and homes sections (which accounts for a majority of all mentions, my review in Nexis shows).
• The researchers include 417 newspapers–a big number, but just a third of newspapers nationwide. The authors said their study used all papers available in their databases, which meant they got almost all the larger papers in the country but a much smaller share of small papers. By wide a margin the larger papers were on the liberal side of the authors' rankings.
• Of the 1,000 phrases, 617 are Democratic and 383 are Republican. The reason for that disparity is unclear, and the authors' calculations don't require that the phrase count break exactly even.

St.Athansius has the answer;
"God becomes man, so that man shall become gods."(St.Athanasius)
Jesus the Begotten Son of God has to come down to show us the Way how to enter His Father's Kingdom, and there's is only one way and the first one who teach the Apostles the Way that Jesus had shown by His life is theTheotokos. The Catholic Church teaches that the Way to Heaven and "transformation" is the Way of the Cross.
As St.Paul boldly exclaimed his own transformation;

Homemaker Vicky Kamlani grew up in New York and returned to Mumbai seven years ago. Being a hardcore foodie as well as a cook and baker, she realised she wasn’t able to find the kind of freshly-baked cookies that she enjoyed over the years when she was abroad. The varieties that she came across in the market were loaded with preservatives, and had a hard texture.

This paper updates the assessment of the impact commercialized agricultural biotechnology is having on global agriculture, from some important environmental perspectives. It focuses on the impact of changes in pesticide use and greenhouse gas emissions arising from the use of biotech crops. The technology has reduced pesticide spraying by 443 million kg (-9.1%) and, as a result, decreased the environmental impact associated with herbicide and insecticide use on these crops [as measured by the indicator the Environmental Impact Quotient (EIQ)] by 17.9%. The technology has also significantly reduced the release of greenhouse gas emissions from this cropping area, which, in 2010, was equivalent to removing 8.6 million cars from the roads.

Obesity in non-elderly adults is defined as a body mass index (BMI = weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared) of 30 or higher ([@B1]). Obesity has emerged as an epidemic, especially in the United States, accompanied by a variety of chronic medical problems, including diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. In the United States, the increase in overweight and obesity prevalence has particularly accelerated in the last 20 years. The overweight prevalence doubled from a mean of 15.1% in 1976--80 to 31.2% in 2001--2004 ([@B2]). In 2000, none of the states had an obesity prevalence exceeding 30%; by 2010, 12 states reported an obesity prevalence of \>30% ([@B3]). Although the prevalence appears to be leveling off, it had increased to 35.7% among adults by 2009--10 ([@B4]). A Centers for

The average per capita per day energy levels available in the US food supply was 3,400 kcal in 1909--1919, 3,600 kcal in 1990--1999, and 3,900 kcal in 2004 ([@B59]). National Center for Health Statistics through series of surveys (National Health Examination Surveys from 1959 to 1970 and the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys from 1971 to 2004) shows that the prevalence of overweight and obese Americans increased slowly through the middle of 1970s and then sharply began to rise thereafter ([@B2]). Thus, the period of accelerated increase in weight gain overlaps with both increased dietary caloric intake and antibiotic exposures in food.

A Comox Valley family’s business proposal to establish a water bottling operation in Merville is earning them no friends in the small community in Electoral Area C.
The family intends to extract and bottle up to 10,000 litres of groundwater per day on their property on Sackville Road, and sell five-gallon jugs of it by home delivery throughout the Comox Valley.
The Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development issued Christopher MacKenzie and his family a conditional water licence for the operation in November 2017.
The province has jurisdiction over below-ground water extraction practices in accordance with the B.C. Water Sustainability Act. However, the

Parents shocked by the sudden closure of a residential unit at a special needs school in Bristol, which resulted in children with severe and complex learning difficulties having to move out, have won legal aid funding to investigate a possible challenge to the lawfulness of the decision.
Parents were called at work and summoned to pick up their children from St Christopher’s – an independent special school and residential care home in Westbury Park, in the north of the city – after Ofsted suspended its registration due to safeguarding concerns.
Police confirmed at the time they were investigating allegations of child cruelty and a number of staff were suspended pending the outcome. Parents expressed anger at the way the closure, which happened three weeks ago, was handled and sought legalSunday, March 14, 2010

Karen Gravano has lived in Arizona for 10 years, after her father Salvatore "Sammy the Bull" ratted out some fellow mobsters. Now she's back in New York, and Renee Graziano, daughter of an alleged high-ranking member of La Cosa Nostra, is none too pleased. A verbal smackdown must ensue.
"What your father did was [beep] wrong, and it destroyed a lot of families," says Renee of the "rat." Karen counters, "You don't have a problem with the fact that my father was a gangster and possibly put a gun to someone's head and shot him in the back of the head? That whole lifestyle doesn't destroy families?"
She then points her finger in Renee's face. Oh now it is on. Cue more F-bombs.

York and Washington.
Analyst Thomas Wright of the Washington-based Brookings Institution said Trump's failure to publicly declare this was "shocking and damaging".
Brussels presented Trump with the first problems of a landmark foreign trip, including tense moments with the head of the European Union and with key ally Britain.
Trump announced a review of "deeply troubling" US intelligence leaks over the Manchester bombing, in which 22 people died, and warned that those responsible could face prosecution, the White House said.
He later discussed the row with Britain's Prime Minister Theresa May, who had condemned the leaks that left British authorities infuriated with their US counterparts.
- EU Russia tensions -
A meeting with European Council chief Donald Tusk and European Commission head Jean-Claude Juncker did not go smoothly either, despite hopes it could clearthe bad blood caused by Trump backing Britain's Brexit vote.
During his meeting with the two top EU officials, Trump launched a salvo against Germany and its car sales in the United States, Der Spiegel reported.
"The Germans are bad, very bad," he said, according to the German weekly's online edition.
"See the millions of cars they are selling in the US. Terrible. We will stop this," he reportedly said.
Tusk had earlier said there were differences on climate change and trade but above all Russia.
"I'm not 100 percent sure that we can say today -- 'we' means Mr President and myself -- that we have a common position, common opinion about Russia," said Tusk, a former Polish premier who grew up protesting against Soviet domination of his country.

WINGS OVER NOVEMBER…
Paul was far too busy in November for us to spend too long thinking about Christmas though, with some huge tour dates and a brand new single on the horizon. As well as playing his last US show of the year in Greensboro, Paul was celebrating the latest releases from the GRAMMY Award winning 'Paul McCartney Archive Collection' with the reissues of classic Wings albums Venus and Mars and Wings At The Speed of Sound. Unbelievably, these are the sixth and seventh titles to be released since the Archive launched in 2010 and are a real treat for both new listeners and original fans as they’reof the Day while Mojo hosted the exclusive streaming of the remastered version of 'Let ‘Em In'. They also revealed the original individual contact sheets of the photos used for the sleeve of At The Speed Of Sound. Perhaps my own personal favourite coverage came in the Times Magazine though, which featured some amazing Linda McCartney images taken for the Venus and Mars session.
The releases found great support from radio too. To promote the reissues, Geoff Lloyd on Absolute had the exclusive play of 'Rock Show (New Version)' while an alternative version of 'Letting Go' was placed with BBC 6Music as their MPFree and was downloaded 23,000 times from PaulMcCartney.com within days of its release. BBC Radio 2 then broadcast a radio documentary to mark the release called

China today disputed Barack Obama's suggestion that it was artificially depressing its currency to gain a trade advantage.
The US president promised to take a tough line with Beijing over its currency and implied it was breaking trade rules in the latest in a series of rows straining US-Chinese relations.
His remarks were dismissed by the Chinese foreign ministry spokesman, Ma Zhaoxu, who said the yuan was correctly priced.
"At the moment, looking at international balance of payments and forex market supply and demand, the level of the yuan is close to reasonable and balanced," he told a press conference.
"Criticism and pressing obviously is not helpful to solving problems."
The comments come at a tense time in relations between the countries, with diplomatic concerns over issues including US arms sales to Taiwan,george-rr-martin-game-of-thrones-cameo.jpg

Bayonne native George R.R. Martin serves as co-executive producer on the medieval fantasy drama, returning March 31. This season, he is expected to make an appearance.
"You will see him," executive producer David Benioff told Deadline Tuesday night. Benioff did not disclose what role Martin would play.
Martin originally acted in the pilot, though he did not make the final cut.
“Ninety percent of the pilot was re-shot and George’s cameo ended up on the cutting room floor," said D.B. Weiss, also an executive producer, at an “Evening With Game Of Thrones” event at the Chinese Theatre in

Serbia must not be dragged into turmoil again
UZICE - Serbian President Tomislav Nikolic has noted on Wednesday at a ceremony marking Armed Forces Day that, in the recent past, Serbia experienced a lot of suffering, caused even by those that were allies in the world wars, and he warned that the country must not allow to be dragged into turmoil ever again due to quarrels of others.
"They want to drag us into turmoil, but we already suffered a lot," Nikolic cautioned at the central ceremony in Uzice, western Serbia, held on the occasion of Armed Forces Day, April 23.
He noted that the perpetrators of the 1999 bombing of Serbia have recently admitted that they did it, without UN authorization, under the pretext of trying to preventpossible suffering of one people and potential exodus of civilians.
"They found an excuse for the (NATO) bombing of a sovereign state, a UN member, and the killing of its children and destruction of its resources that were created by its citizens, in prevention of potential suffering. They had better not try to invent any excuse, as there was none - or they had better admit what the real reason was - to create an Albanian state in the territory of Serbia," Nikolic said.
Describing this as a dangerous precedent and something that would be shameful even for barbarian peoples of the pre-Christian era, Nikolic said that "Serbia rightly expects to get back on its feet."
He said that big and heavily-armed states still demonstrate that they take different approaches to

"Baby and Siri are... doing very well. It's incredible. We thought this was going to happen on Saturday and it didn't. We went home. It was a long couple days of waiting. Like out of a movie, I sped to the hospital and they were literally waiting for me to get there and we had our beautiful baby girl," Daly reportedly said, adding that theydecided on their daughter's name last minute.
"We tried to pick something that matched [our family's names]. Rose was my grandma's name, Etta was Siri's grandma's name... When little London came out we were still throwing out [possibilities]."

the FBI discovered that one translator had been providing FBI top secret information to a foreign intelligence service.
Cole was forced out of the FBI after 18 years for raising these questions. Apparently he didn't have the requisite Juice Men on his side.
Back to ProutyReturning to the recent case of Nada Nadim Prouty, according to The Independent, in 1999, Prouty was "talent spotted" at the restaurant where she'd worked since 1990. Who recruited her? Who pushed her through the recruitment process? Who were her 'Juice-Men'? Have they been promoted? Who facilitated Prouty's 2003 move to the CIA and then to the "CIA’s most sensitive post" where she "participated in the debriefings of high-ranking al-Qaida detainees"?
The Prouty timeline, and her penalty, is also suspicious.
According to Michael Isikoff in Newsweek, buriedin the penultimate paragraph of a 3 page article:
"(The FBI) discover(ed) Prouty's connections to Hizbullah (in) December 2005... Eventually the bureau alerted the agency and the CIA later reassigned her to a less sensitive position... about a year ago, after she first came under suspicion."
That is, the FBI has known about this for 2 years, and it took the CIA a full 12 months to downgrade her status, and then it took a further 12 months for the investigation and to negotiate her guilty plea. Of course, Prouty wasn't charged with espionage, but rather, as one anonymous spin doctor described it:
"She took an illegal shortcut to the American dream, then she made some inappropriate computer searches."

Feghali's wife works for the NSA as a translator, and she translated the 9/11 "Tomorrow is zero hour" intercepts.
More from the 2004 Washington Post article:
"National security adviser Condoleezza Rice and her deputy, Stephen J. Hadley, were apprised of the FBI counterintelligence investigation of AIPAC as a possible conduit for information to Israel more than two years ago"
That is, after Rice and Hadley had been told that the FBI was investigating AIPAC for espionage (and probably also about the 'whole ball of wax'), AIPAC was trying to place Franklin inside Rice's NSC so that their "israeli mole" (to quote CBS) would be "by the elbow of the President." Did Rice and Hadley tell the FBI that they had been approached by Rosen about giving Franklin a job? Did theybeyond the Franklin matter.
FBI agents have briefed top White House, Pentagon and State Department officials on the probe. Based on those briefings, officials said, the bureau appears to be looking into other controversies that have roiled the Bush administration, some of which also touch Feith's office.
They include how the Iraqi National Congress, a former exile group backed by the Pentagon, allegedly received highly classified U.S. intelligence on Iran; the leaking of the name of CIA officer Valerie Plame to reporters; and the production of bogus documents suggesting that Iraq tried to buy uranium for nuclear weapons from the African country of Niger. Bush repeated the Niger claim in making the case for war against Iraq.

Expedia Suspends Booking Of American Airlines Flights
by Sam Savage
Online travel agency Expedia Inc has stopped booking flights for American Airlines, alleging that the airline's new commercial strategy is "anti-consumer" and "anti-choice."
Expedia's weekend move to stop selling tickets for American Airlines, comes a little more than a week after the carrier cut its ties with Orbitz, saying it needed to cut its distribution costs and wanted to take more control over how it offers tickets and services to online travel agencies.
Expedia on Sunday told Reuters by email that it had been unable to reach an agreement with American "due to American Airlines' new commercial strategy that we believe is anti-consumer and anti-choice."
"American Airlines is attempting to introduce a new direct connect model that will result in highercosts and reduced transparency for consumers, making it difficult to compare American Airlines' ticket prices and options with offerings by other airlines," said the travel agency.
As a result, the sale of American Airlines flights on Expedia's website has been suspended, it said.
"We remain open to doing business with American Airlines on terms that are satisfactory to Expedia and do not compromise our ability to provide consumers with the products and services they need," Expedia said.
American Airlines did not comment on Expedia's move, but in a statement on its website last week, it thanked customers for continued loyalty in its dispute with Expedia and Orbitz.
The airline said it has seen a year-over-year increase in its overall ticket sales since December 21, when it removed schedules and fares from Orbitz's

that allowing students to carry concealed guns on college campuses will reduce sexual assault and also argued that the incidence of sexual assaults on college campuses has been exaggerated. (According to academic research, students who carried guns while at college were more likely to report “being victims and perpetrators of physical and sexual violence at college” compared to students who did not.)
Iowa State Daily reported that “Pavlich was met with resistance from multiple ISU students, including a large group of purple-clad students attending the lecture as part of an organized effort called 'Standing up to Katie Pavlich and Rape Culture.'”
After her speech, several survivors of sexual assault challenged Pavlich on her notion that guns will prevent future assaults. An ISU women's studies lecturer later told the student paper

In April 2001, while driving a stolen car, he fired on and wounded two men who had chased him, one of them a plain clothes police officer.
He last emerged from prison in October 2015 and was living in the eastern suburb of Chelles.
His lawyer described him as psychologically fragile and neighbours in Chelles said he had never shown any interest in religion.
Three members of the gunman's family have been arrested for questioning.
How did the attack unfold?
Driving an Audi, the gunman arrived in the Champs Elysees area at 20:47 (18:47 GMT) on Thursday and drove up to a police bus parked on the avenue, Mr Molins said.
Getting out, he opened fire at the driver's window, killing a police officer inside. The officer has been named as XavierJugelé.
He then went around the bus and fired on two police officers posted outside a Turkish tourist office. It was announced earlier that two officers had been injured.
Security forces later shot Cheurfi dead.
Terrified eyewitnesses later recounted scenes of panic as they ran for cover.
Was Cheurfi acting alone?
French investigators are trying to find out whether he had accomplices.
IS announced soon after the attack that one of its "fighters" had carried out the attack but it named him as "Abu Yousif al-Belgiki [the Belgian]".
"We don't understand why Islamic State has identified the wrong person," a police source was quoted by Reuters news agency as saying. "What does seem clear is that Islamic State was planning something."
Who was the victim?

Originally from the Loire Valley region in central France, he had been serving in the capital since 2014, French daily Liberation writes (in French).
On 13 November 2015, he was deployed to secure the area around the Bataclan concert hall after the IS attack, Le Parisien writes (in French).
When the venue reopened last November with a concert by Sting, Mr Jugelé was there again, telling the US's People magazine : "I'm happy to be here... We're here tonight as witnesses. Here to defend our civic values. This concert's to celebrate life. To say no to terrorists."
What is the election row about?
Leading candidates on the right were accused by Prime Minister Bernard Cazeneuve ofcynically exploiting the attack in the final hours of the campaign (which ends at midnight local time on Friday).

Describing Ms Bullock as "the most down to earth, beautiful soul", the club said members were "absolutely devastated".
Greenvale Hotel owner Michael McElhatton said he was "deeply shocked and saddened by the traumatic events".
"We offer our heartfelt sympathies to the families and friends of the three young people who have lost their lives," he said.
He added that management and staff were assisting the police in their investigations.
'Whole queue collapsed'
Police Service of Northern Ireland Assistant Chief Constable Mark Hamilton said: "Our preliminary investigations show there was a crush towards the front door of this hotel, and in that crush people seem to have fallen.
"There seemed to be a little bit of struggling going on to get people up off the ground and that mightexplain also why there was a report of some fighting."
He added: "It is heartbreaking that an event which should have been fun for these youngsters on St Patrick's night should end in such a terrible tragedy."
A teenage eye witness told the BBC people were "pushing and shoving each other, trying to get closer to the gates" of the Greenvale Hotel.
He said the disco was the most popular in the area and often attracted large crowds.
Another teenage eyewitness, who did not wish to be named, told the Ulster Herald he was waiting outside the hotel when a "stampede" started.
"We were all outside waiting for the gate to open and get in," he told the paper. "Then everyone just started swaying back and forth and pushing from side to side.

"Sources have indicated that this information was communicated to numerous senior people in the (DOJ) Criminal Division, including Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer and several of his top deputies, including Jason Weinstein, Kenneth Blanco and John Keeney," the letter says.
As for the frequent criticism that the ATF unnecessarily prolonged Operation Fast and Furious, the letter says the agency knew by July 2010 that Celis-Acosta had crossed the U.S.-Mexican border 15 times, but chose not to arrest him, even though those crossings -- and the hundreds of guns ATF agents witnessed him receiving -- constituted probable cause.

Exhibit Four: They Keep the Money; You Get the Slogan
Around the time the stock market was in the process of losing $7 trillion of investor wealth in ill-conceived techs, dotcoms and telecoms, aided and abetted by Citigroup and its Wall Street cronies, I was driving on Charles Lindbergh Blvd. in Uniondale, Long Island when a bizarre billboard caught my eye. The giantbillboard read:
He who dies with the most toys is still dead.Live Richly.
(Citigroup logo: "Citi" and angelic red halo.)
I had never worked on Madison Avenue but I knew a lot of ad folks and I was pretty sure advertisements typically involved children, pets or other warm and fuzzy things. Citigroup telling me to ponder my own death seemed, well, "out of its mind."
I knew there had to be more behind this campaign. According to Citigroup's web site, the "Live Richly" campaign was meant to communicate "that Citi is an advocate for a healthy approach to money. Citi is an active partner in achieving perspective, balance, and peace of mind in finances and in life for its customers."
The ad agency was Fallon Worldwide and it clearly had Citigroup confused with

Johnson Earns Sixth Big West Player of the Week Honor
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - UC Santa Barbara senior guard Orlando Johnson was named Big West Player of the Week on Monday. Last week, Johnson paced the Gauchos to road wins at UC Irvine and Utah State.
The Player of the Week award is the sixth of Johnson's career, tying him with Long Beach State's Casper Ware and Larry Anderson for the third most in Big West history.
"Orlando really came alive last week," said UCSB head coach Bob Williams. "He played with great energy and showed the type of aggressiveness that has made him the great player that he is."
In the Gauchos' game at UC Irvine on Feb. 15, Johnson had 25 points, 10 rebounds, four assists and one steal. Itpushes his UCSB career total to 1,674 and puts him just 13 points behind Carrick DeHart (1986-90) for second on the school's all-time list and just 22 shy of Alex Harris' (2004-08) all-time school record of 1,696. DeHart and Harris each hit their marks in four seasons while Johnson is in the midst of his third year overall. If his freshman season at Loyola Marymount is factored in, he has now scored 2,057 career points.
Johnson and the Gauchos travel to Long Beach State on Wednesday night for an 8:00 p.m. game against the 49ers. The game will be televised on ESPN2 and is a battle between the schools that have played for each of the last two Big West Tourament championships. UCSB returns home on Saturday, Feb. 25

awarded a scholarship for the period July 1, 1979 June 30, 1980. He requested, and received, additional funding for the 1980-1981, 1981-1982, 1982-1983 academic years. NHSC Scholarship funds thus paid for all four years of Armstrong's medical education. He received scholarship grants from NHSC totalling $29,417.
4. Following his graduation from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in June 1983, Armstrong requested and received a three year deferment of his service obligation to complete internal medicine training at the University of Texas Medical School in Houston, and at the University of Tennessee Health Sciences Center in Memphis. As a result of this deferment, Armstrong was due to begin his service obligation on July 1, 1986. On or about July 1, 1985, the NHSC mailed to Armstrong apacket of materials, including the Information Bulletin for the 1986 Placement Cycle.
5. On or about April, 1986, Armstrong, having accepted a position as an internist at the Texas Department of Corrections ("TDC") facility in Huntsville, Texas, submitted an application to serve at the TDC/Huntsville site under the Private Practice Option ("PPO"). Armstrong subsequently entered into a PPO agreement with a designee of the Secretary of Health and Human Services, whereby he agreed to serve at TDC/Huntsville from July 7, 1986 to July 7, 1990. Commencing July 7, 1986, Armstrong did serve one year of his four-year service commitment at TDC/Huntsville, Texas.
6. By letter dated June 18, 1987, Armstrong resigned from his position at TDC/Huntsville effective July 1, 1987, thereby breaching his NHSC Scholarship contract with the Public Health

Service and abandoning his commitment to serve as a physician with the State of Texas Corrections System at Huntsville, Texas.
7. By letter dated November 9, 1987, the United States notified Armstrong that he had been placed in default and that, pursuant to Section 754(c) of the Public Health Services Act, 42 U.S.C. § 254o, his failure to complete his obligated service had resulted in a debt comprised of the actual amount borrowed enhanced by a penalty factor based upon a statutory formula, interest thereon, and administrative costs. The agency sent Armstrong several letters urging him to make arrangements for the payment of his debt and advising him of his appeal rights. Armstrong made no written response to these letters, nor is there any record in his scholarship filewas pending before the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services.
ANALYSIS
The facts and law before this court are straightforward: Armstrong entered into a contract with the United States wherein he agreed, in exchange for almost $30,000 in scholarship grants to finance his medical education, to serve under the PPO as a physician in a designated Health Manpower Shortage Area ("HMSA") within the United States. He agreed to serve one year for each year that he received a NHSC scholarship award, thus obligating himself to serve four years for the four annual NHSC scholarships he received. Armstrong elected to discharge this obligation by serving under the PPO in a HMSA location in Huntsville, Texas. After approximately one year of service, Armstrong submitted his resignation effective July 1,

The representative of Mozambique, addressing the Council in the afternoon, when it resumed after a suspension, said reintegration meant reconciling combatants with communities which were victims of atrocities. Reintegration had to be such that former combatants would identify more with the community than with their former roles as fighters. Particularly important was the demobilization and reintegration of child soldiers. While governments could be held accountable for the use of children as soldiers, it was often difficult to induce change in rebel groups and to have them admit to the use of children.

Several days after his death, Vincent's family issued a statement and asked to be allowed to grieve in private.
"His passing will create a huge void in our hearts," it read. "Patrice was very proud to serve in the Canadian Armed Forces. He did what he loved and we supported him during the 28 years he served.

"Patrice loved life; he was well liked by everyone and he always spoke passionately about his involvement with the Canadian Armed Forces. Serving was his way of making a difference in our world."
The statement also said the family's thoughts were with Couture-Rouleau'srelatives.
A relative said Vincent was considering retiring from the Canadian Forces and looking to the next phase of his life.
A big heart
Daniel Drouin, Vincent's former firefighting colleague at CFB Edmonton, met Vincent in 2003 on a fire supervisor's course in Borden, Ont.
He remembered Vincent as a lovable, dedicated firefighter and friend.

"He was really loved by his friends. His career spanned 28 years, so a lot of people will be missing him," Drouin told CBC News.
"He was always the guy you could go to and get help. He was always the last guy there to help clean up, to pack up the truck. You can count on him.”

Analyst Adam Jonas of Morgan Stanley is among those who say Ford Motor Co. cannot reach its stated profit goals for "Smart Redesign" by laying off just 7,000 salaried workers total worldwide by August.
The company must cut "a further" 23,000 salaried jobs in the near term to fulfill its goals, Jonas wrote Tuesday.
"Ford disclosed that the 7k headcount cuts will save $600 million annually, or an average of $86k per worker," said an investment report dated May 21. "Our (calculations) ... require more than a further 23k salaried headcount reductions."

Ask Foldspang Neve is a development consultant and a sociologist at the University of Oxford. His commentary on Greenland has appeared in various major Danish media outlets. Most recently, he was a consultant for a major USAID-funded project in Afghanistan. The views expressed here are his. Read more opinion on CNN.
(CNN) President Donald Trump has often been accused of conquering the American electorate by dividing it along racial and economic lines. Yet, when it was rumored that Trump was considering an American purchase of Greenland off Denmark, he somehow managed to create the exact opposite effect.
By suggesting that a constituent part of the country he is visiting in a couple of weeks, including, presumably, its 56,000 citizens, were a good to be bargained over, Trump managed to bringnormally quarreling parties in Denmark across the political spectrum together in a common, stern rejection of the idea. Yet, behind the reasons given for their refusal, a familiar political divide resurfaced between Denmark's political left, which has traditionally supported independence for Greenland, and the right, which has tended to emphasize common bonds or ignore Greenland altogether.
Across the political spectrum, Danish politicians were quick to dismiss Trump's hypothetical proposal as both impossible and insulting. Some tried to get a laugh in at the president's expense. Lars Løkke Rasmussen, a two-time former Prime Minister and current leader of the opposition Liberal Party tweeted , "It must be an April Fool's Day joke ... but totally out of [season]!". His party is usually seen as a proponent of the Danish alliance

describes the proposed landmark (working title: Star of Caledonia) as a "contemporary symbol of a confident, creative Scotland". Designed to communicate "Scotland's power of invention". In these days of devolvement it is a chance to assert Scottish National identity: a reading of the house rules before you enter.
The designers say the structure communicates the energy, modernity and inventiveness of the Scots. It's a long way from the identity Sir Walter Scott is held responsible for creating: that of a Romantic nation, full of industrious people who wear tartan and stare out meaningfully at their picturesque landscape.
It is also long way from being built. The proposal has not yet been given planning permission or the £3m needed to realise the vision. It could end up like Tatlin's Tower andfrequently reported crimes in Chatteris are "Anti-Social Behaviour" and "Violent and Sexual Offences".
Economy
Overview
Chatteris is sited in particularly fertile agricultural land, and as such, the town's local economy is largely based on this industry. Alan Bartlett and Sons Ltd, a major British grower and packer of root vegetables has a large facility in the town with over 2,500 hectares under cultivation, much of it growing parsnips and the Chantenay and Bushytops carrot. The company is a demerger of Albert Bartlett & Sons, which are now based in Scotland. Rustler Produce Ltd, also based in Chatteris, is another major player in this industry, and a number of smaller vegetable producers and processors operate in the Chatteris area.
Another major employer in the town is Metalcraft (Stainless Metalcraft (Chatteris) Ltd). The company

When Bill Snyder first arrived at Kansas State, he carried rather improbable recruiting hopes, given the dilapidated state of the program.
"I really thought, 'We're going to go compete for every 5-star and 4-star player out there,'" Snyder said in a phone interview with ESPN.com. "Reality hit home rather quickly."
That reality forced Snyder to scrap his pie-in-the-sky vision of luring blue-chippers to Manhattan.
He replaced that with a practical yet unconventional master plan built on unearthing prospects other schools would be to prone to overlook.
That recruiting strategy proved to be a pillar for Snyder's "Manhattan Miracle." It's one that, even going into Snyder's 26th season, continues to defy recruiting rankings and exceed expectations.
"If we spent so much time with the particular level of high school or community college player ...schools for when the next diamond in the rough surfaces.
"That's kind of the foundation," Snyder said. "And we've gotten so many good young guys through it."
Indeed, the Wildcats have thrived off such hidden gems who have been passed over by other programs for, according to Snyder, four primary reasons.
They hail from remote small towns.
They don't go to the combine camps put on by recruiting services.
They're lacking in a measurable, such as wingspan or 40 time.
They've yet to peak in football because they’ve played other sports.

Critics say it gives multinationals the ability to dictate public policy, such as on the environment, labour or health.
CETA has had a rocky ride since it was agreed in 2014. Seen by critics as the “little brother” of the planned EU-U.S. TTIP trade deal, it has been the subject of large protests and was only signed by the EU’s 28 members after opposition from a region of Belgium.
European Parliament assent would allow CETA to enter force provisionally, meaning import tariffs would be cut or removed. However, full implementation to include the contentious investment protection system would only happen after clearance by more than 40 national and regional parliaments.

administering the mainly Sunni city and accommodating those who flee the fighting are in place.
The United Nations has said up to a million people could flee the city and that it expected the first big wave in five or six days, indicating fighting would reach the city then.
But some residents said Islamic State was making sure people did not leave. One, who gave his name as Anwar, said he fled the Sumer district near Mosul airport, fearing ground forces and aerial bombing.
"I told Daesh fighters at a checkpoint 'I’m going to stay at my sister’s house'," he said. "A Daesh fighter made calls through his radio to make sure I was not lying and only after the voice on the other side said: 'Let him go', did Ilet myself breathe."
Fighting is expected to take weeks, if not months, as 30,000 government forces, Sunni tribal fighters and Kurdish Peshmerga first encircle the city then attempt to oust between 4,000 and 8,000 Islamic State militants.
More than 5,000 U.S. soldiers are also deployed in support missions, as are troops from France, Britain, Canada and other Western nations.
The Iraqi army is attacking Mosul on the southern and southeastern fronts, while the Peshmerga carried out their operation to the east and are also deployed north and northwest.
The Kurdish forces said they secured "a significant stretch" of the 80 km (50 mile) road between Erbil, their capital, and Mosul, about an hour's drive to the west.

November 30, 2008. An exhaustive catalog of this exhibition was put together through collaboration between Spencer Museum of Art and The University of Kansas, and is entitled Aaron Douglas: African American Modernist.
In 2016, with the opening of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, an archive of artworks created by or having to do with Aaron Douglas became available on their website. Users can access the full references of these pieces of art to determine the creation date, subject of the art, and its current residence.

Aaron Douglas developed two art styles during his career: first as a traditional portraitist, then as a muralist and illustrator. Influenced by having worked with Winold Reiss, Douglas incorporated African themes into his artwork to create a connection between Africans and[Thoughts about the "rade" disease in Norway--"it takes its victims slowly"].
Radesyge first appeared in south-western Norway in the middle of the 18th century; the endemic that followed was to haunt the region for close to one hundred years. The disease was characterized by severe wounds, often with bone decomposition. The face was frequently involved, causing striking malformations. Radesyge was at the time considered a serious threat to society and was the subject of intense public debate over several decades. Core components of the modern health care system in Norway can trace their origin to countermeasures taken to combat the spread of this disease. In this article, the author argues that rather than viewing radesyge as an outbreak of tertiary syphilis, which has been the custom for the last

to decriminalize sex work in New York City and New York state. They already have the support of various state lawmakers.
Due to its clandestine nature in America, it's extremely hard to find reliable numbers about the sex trade. But one thing is for sure: It's a multi-billion-dollar industry. In 2007, a government-sponsored report looked at several major U.S. cities and found that sex work brings in around $290 million a year in Atlanta alone.
Economist Allison Schrager says the Internet has increased demand and supply. "Women who pre-Internet (or men) who wouldn't walk the streets or sign with a madam or an agency now can sell sex work, sometimes even on the side to supplement other sources of income," she says.
So what happens when you take this massive undergroundbeen for fear of legal consequences. She left her native Argentina because she was being brutally harassed by police in her small town.

"Let's be realistic," Gentili says, "for people like me, sex work is not 'one' job option. It's the only option."
Gentili says that when police busted the drug house in Brooklyn where she was being held, she debated whether to ask for help. She figured she was in a very vulnerable position, as a trans, undocumented person. She stayed quiet.
These days Gentili is the director of policy at GMHC, an HIV/AIDS prevention, care and advocacy nonprofit in New York. She's advocating for New

years' imprisonment. § 775.082(3)(b), Fla.Stat. (1975). Mayo believed that with the psychiatric evidence available, some rather bizarre behavior by Foster before and during the murder, and the circumstances (especially the fact that the victim died while drinking and using a prostitute) he could convince the jury to return a second degree verdict.
Foster rejected the defense. He wanted to "walk or burn." Despite his many arrests Foster had never been convicted, and he was convinced he could talk his way out of jail. It will be my word against the womens' was his reasoning. Mayo pointed out the fallacy of Foster's plan. Two eyewitnesses, he said, would be hard to counter, and Foster's confession would be devastating despite Foster's explanation that the women had just convinced him he killedbrutality. Consequently he focused upon seeking mercy. To that end he put Foster's ex-wife on the stand. He felt she would evoke the jury's sympathy while presenting evidence from which he could also argue the psychiatric mitigating factors. She testified about Foster's self-mutilation and suicidal urges and the apparent lack of reason for his actions. Her testimony, albeit on cross-examination, was moving.

3. Beyonce Knowl...In Beyonce's 2011 anthem, "Girls (Run The World)," she champions women who are "strong enough to bear the children, then get back to business." And in 2012, she did just that. After giving birth to daughter Blue Ivy Carter (with rapper Jay-Z) in January, Knowles hit the stage in May for a sold-out four-night performance she dubbed "Back to Business." She still earned big in an off-year, cashing in on old hits and new album "4," which went platinum in the U.S., as well as non-musical ventures like her House of Dereon clothing line and endorsement deals.. One of the best-selling musicians of all time (she's earned 16 Grammy awards), Knowles has become a role model for

again at the Stade Velodrome. Sense the Blues need a strong start here.
INTERVAL: Bad news for the Blues. They have lost their captain, Wales prop Gethin Jenkins. More on that when we get it. Second half about to start in Marseille.
HALF-TIME: BLUES 6-13 TOULON
40 mins: With half-time approaching, Leigh Halfpenny lines up a near-60m penalty from inside the Blues half, but it falls narrowly wide.
36mins: TRY BLUES 6-13 TOULON Toulon's pressure finally pays off as Kiwi centre Sonny Bill Williams - who has been offered a contract by the New Zealand Rugby Union - steps inside three Blues players off his left foot to touch down with nonchalant ease. Wilko slots the conversion, and Toulon are in the ascendancy.
BigTrevsBigMac on 606:
"Toulon are playing as though they have swappedup a loose pass, but is hauled down.
24 mins: This is a record crowd for a Challenge Cup final by the way - smashing the previous best of just under 32,000 for the Montferrand (now Clermont) v Bourgoin final in 1999.
22 mins: PENALTY BLUES 6-3 TOULON After a half-break from Casey Laulala, Toulon concede a penalty when May is adjudged not to have rolled away after tackling Martyn Williams. Ben Blair smacks it over to put the Blues back in the lead.
20 mins: Toulon try to counter with long passes from Wilko and his old Newcastle team-mate Tom May, but Lovobalavu's pass to Van Niekerk, who is clear down the right, is ruled forward. Another let-off for Blues.

oral hypoglycaemic products have only been covered by the Civil Servants Medical Benefits Scheme (which insures about 9% of the population) \[[@CR23]\] or self-funded by patients.
The uptake of newer insulin and oral hypoglycemic products was higher in Brazil than in Thailand. Importantly, Brazil was the earliest adopter of insulin analogues and has the most use of these products overall. This finding may reflect the fact that IMS Health data in Brazil represent largely pharmaceutical sales from the private sector where newer products may preferentially be dispensed. Among the three countries included in this study, Brazil was the first to make substantial progress toward increasing financial protection for healthcare expenditures for its population. Since 1989, all citizens in Brazil have been entitled to free health care at primary, secondary,and tertiary levels through a national health system that is funded by taxes and social contributions, such as social security payments \[[@CR24]\]. Interest in HTA in Brazil began in the mid-1980s. In 2003, several policies were developed by the federal government to encourage the use of HTA for making clinical, management, and policy decisions \[[@CR25]\]. In 2004, Brazil introduced the Popular Pharmacy Program \[[@CR8]\] to improve access to essential medicines in the public sector. In 2006, the program was expanded to the private sector and in 2011, selected medicines for diabetes and hypertension became available free of charge at retail pharmacies participating in the program. The Popular Pharmacy Program fully subsidizes human insulin but not insulin analogues; its 2011 expansion may account for the observed shift in use

policies to increase medicines access while containing pharmaceutical expenditures, industry strategies to increase access to and market shares of new products \[[@CR29]\], clinician prescribing behavior and patient preferences, and patient and system ability and willingness to pay. It remains to be seen how, among other factors, China's ongoing national healthcare reform, Brazil's strategies to increase use of chronic disease medicines, and Thailand's approach to evaluating novel medicines will influence future patterns of use of diabetes treatments. As pharmaceutical markets and health system structures continue to evolve, it is crucial to adapt pharmaceutical policies to generate most health value for the resources spent \[[@CR30]\].
Conclusions {#Sec9}
===========
This study compared the uptake of new insulin products and new oral hypoglycemic medications between three middle-income pharmerging countries between 2002 and 2012. Uptake patternsparents and carers came to help with refreshments and ticket sales on the door; and students and teachers from a range of cultures and backgrounds spoke, performed or sang about how the work had changed their teaching, their opinions and their approach to the LGBT+ community. As the programme grew throughout the UK we were able to hold annual regional showcase events, some of which can be seen in our short film Building Cohesive Communities (see below in the Resources section for the link).
Perceived barriers to community engagement
Interestingly, community engagement is often the topic that makes teachers most nervous about people raising objections to LGBT+ inclusive work. At the beginning of training, the vast majority of our trainees say that they believe parents, cultural diversity, religion and the

Anne says, "I didn't have a clue how I was going to [prove him innocent]. Staying in school was giving him hope, but I was actually anxious about what would happen when I graduated."
She called the Innocence Project and was told Kenny would be put on a long waiting list and his case accepted only if evidence had been preserved. Pretending to be writing a research paper, Betty Anne and a couple of classmates began calling the clerk of courts in Boston. At first, the office insisted that everything had been destroyed, but after months of haranguing, Betty Anne persuaded a clerk to search the storeroom, where she found a box labeled waters. Betty Anne, who'd passed the bar by this point, raced up to Boston and openedthe box. Without daring to touch anything for fear of contaminating it, she saw a bloody piece of curtain and knife—bits of evidence ripe for DNA testing. "My heart was pounding so hard I felt you could hear it," Betty Anne recalls. The next morning, she asked the court to officially preserve the box's contents and called Scheck, who agreed to act as cocounsel.
Two years later, Kenny and Betty Anne walked out of the Boston courthouse into a scrum of TV cameras and microphones, both grinning from ear to ear. DNA testing had shown that the perpetrator couldn't have been Kenny Waters. (The crime is now unsolved; DNA testing has not turned up any new suspects.)

newly minted law degree brought him home.
It's been nine years, but Betty Anne still cries talking about Kenny's death. "Oh yeah. We miss him. Yeah. Sometimes I can talk about it better than other times," she says, taking a deep breath and wiping her eyes. Her brother was physically absent during his time in prison, but he'd become a kind of family counselor from his jail phone—his death left a gaping hole. "Kenny helped a lot of people in the family through problems," Betty Anne says. "Half the time, you wouldn't know he was behind bars. He was very patient."
Director Tony Goldwyn says early scripts of the movie included Kenny's death, but he decided it detracted from the story that captivated him in the first place. "What Iwanted it to be about wasn't whether Betty Anne was able to get him out or whether he was innocent, but about the fact that these two people loved each other so much," Goldwyn says. "People were overwhelmed by the death."
Though she is licensed to practice in Rhode Island and Massachusetts, Betty Anne has zero interest in working as a lawyer, having won the single case that mattered to her. She does occasionally speak to policymakers about the Innocence Project and judicial
reform. The movie, she reckons, won't change much about her life, although it has extended her proverbial 15 minutes. "Kenny would be so excited about the movie, and he'd love Sam Rockwell [who plays him]. He really captured Kenny."
She's pleased with the Hilary Swank version of Betty

the call be made before the mother left his office. DYFS immediately commenced its investigation, and the mother ceased having the child go to her paternal grandparents for visitation. Both the mother and her babysitter, a cousin of the mother, noticed that the symptoms subsided within weeks after this visitation ceased.
On February 9, 1984, after the victim indicated sexual activities with defendant, Detective Mazzei of the Somerset County Prosecutor's Office met with defendant for the purpose of discussing these allegations. After being given his Miranda rights, defendant initially denied that he had been sexually involved with N.R. Mazzei then showed defendant a drawing of a female child and male child, with circles around the female genital area and the male child's chest. The detective told defendant that theafter such an event. Quite often, the incident is related as part of the day's activities without any indication from the child that it was traumatic or unusual. For example, in Brown v. United States, [152 F.2d 138 (D.C. Cir.1945)], the three-year-old victim calmly reported her assault in school that day during the course of normal dinner time conversation. The statement was subsequently excluded for lack of spontaneity.
Second, a significant delay frequently precedes the child's statement, thereby violating the time requirement of the spontaneous exclamation exception. Even when a child is aware of the nature of his or her assault, a report of the event may still not be instantly forthcoming. This delay may be caused by a variety of factors: the victim's fears of not being believed,

longer-established names such as the Weakerthans, folk-roots fusion band the Duhks (Sugar Hill) and thrash-punk act Propaghandi (Fat Wreck Chords).
Although none of those acts has racked up eye-popping sales yet, some of their figures are still respectable. The Duhks' self-titled sophomore album has sold 38,000 in the United States since its February 2005 release, while Comeback Kid's "Wake the Dead" has sold 53,000 in the same time frame, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
Other Winnipeg acts with domestic followings in Canada include roots-styled artists Nathan (Nettwerk) and James Keelaghan (Jericho Beach Music), rockers Waking Eyes (Coalition) and Novillero (Mint) and country act Doc Walker (Open Roads). These acts have emerged from an abundance of local venues, the best-known being the Zoo, Winnipeg's premier rock club for three decades.
Local booking agentTodd Jordan of Paquin Entertainment Agency suggests the scene's strength partly comes down to Winnipeg being so isolated. "The nearest interesting Canadian city is Calgary," he notes, "and it's a 14-hour drive. Toronto is 24 hours away."
However, Winnipeg acts are becoming increasingly visible on national and international stages. Comeback Kid recently concluded a 27-date North American tour; Levandoski performed at a Canada Day event June 30 in London's Trafalgar Square; the Wailin' Jennys are currently touring the States; and Novillero has just taped an episode of the USA Network TV series "Monk," in which the members appear as themselves.
Local insiders credit complementary development services offered by Manitoba Film & Sound and the Manitoba Audio Recording Industry Assn. with aiding the emergence of the new Winnipeg scene. Both bodies

And she knows it: Right after posting her torso-baring Instagram photo, she ditched that bikini for another in her preferred style, captioning a photo of her wearing a halter one-piece: "'She's always wearing, like, a 1950's bathing suit.'"
In the mid-1990s, belly button piercings became de rigeur, spurred by a pre-Clueless Alicia Silverstone getting a navel ring in the 1994 music video for Aerosmith's "Cryin'." And in the years that followed, pants crept lower and lower, eventually culminating in what Slate decried in 2003 as "the crack epidemic": the horrors of the deeply impractical but trendy fashion for super-low jeans.

MEXICO CITY (Sputnik) – Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro on Friday suggested that a plan for the permanent mobilisation of the Armed Forces to guard against a possible foreign intervention should be adopted.
"It is a plan to maintain the mobilisation of the Bolivarian Armed Forces for protecting our country, which is one of the constitutional obligations … Mobilisation and training. Training and deployment. There must be tanks, missiles of the republic and the soldiers of the republic; [ways] to combine air defenses, naval forces, deployment of the military in order to carry out exercises", Maduro said, summarising the results of recent drills, as broadcast by his Periscope channel.
Maduro recalled that Colombia and the United States allegedly planned a military intervention in Venezuela, noting that his plan "guarantees the securityand peace along the country’s border".

Earlier in the day Venezuelan opposition leader, self-proclaimed interim president Juan Guaido called for pro-Maduro military personnel to choose "the side of the Constitution", giving the "gentlemen from the Armed Forces" seven days, i.e. until 23 February, when "humanitarian aid", coordinated by Guaido, is expected to reach Venezuela.
On Friday State Department deputy spokesperson Robert Palladino revealed that officials from the State Department and US Agency for International Development (USAID) will be aboard a military aircraft that the United States is sending to the Venezuelan border on Saturday to deliver aid to Venezuela.

Subjects were predominantly affected from farming-related exposures and numerous domestic and wild animals were infected by SFTSV \[[@CR53]\].
SFTS was first reported outside China in North Korea in 2009 \[[@CR54]\] and a subsequent fatal case was reported from South Korea in 2012 \[[@CR55]\]. During 2013 SFTS was diagnosed in 35 patients in South Korea, and phylogenic analysis of SFTSV isolates from South Korea and China was closely related \[[@CR56]\]. Locally transmitted cases have also been identified in Japan with 11 cases recognized by 2013, all living in western Japan, and were \>50 years of age, and there were six fatalities \[[@CR57]\]. Phylogenetic analysis of the Japanese isolates indicated that the genotype was independent from those in China. It has been estimated that SFTSV was likely circulating unrecognized in animalsYou gotta feel for CNN. All their efforts to knock the funny coifed president from his position have bellyflopped.

Country
Florida is the home of several notable country musicians and musical acts.
Rock
In the 1960s, Florida rock and roll and garage bands included The Outlaws and The Tempests and The Royal Guardsmen ("Snoopy vs. the Red Baron") were from Gainesville. Another Jacksonville group was The Classics IV ("Traces").
Rock recording industry
In the 1960s, Tampa was very active in the music recording industry. Mercy recorded a Jack Sigler, Jr. original entitled "Love (Can Make You Happy)" at the old Charles Fuller Studio on MacDill Avenue in Tampa. The Royal Guardsmen recorded "Snoopy Vs The Red Baron" at this same studio. Many bands used Charles Fuller Studios for their 45 records. The Tempests, a St. Petersburg-based band,recorded and released "I Want You Only" and "I Want You To Know" on the Fuller label.
Punk rock
Florida has experienced periods in which punk rock flourished. An active scene of original Punk bands flourished in the Tampa/St. Pete area in the late 1970s, including bands such as The Straight Jackets, The Shades, the Jackers, Just Boys, The Art Holes, The Stick Figures, A New Personality and the Veal Rifles. Based in Gainesville, Fort Lauderdale/Miami, Tampa and other cities, hardcore punk gained a widespread following. One of the first bands in this style is believed to be Roach Motel of Gainesville, but The Eat, from Hialeah, had formed around 1978-79. Miami also was home to one of the first American punk bands to release an indie single, "Silver Screen"

by Critical Mass, in 1978 and still in demand by collectors today. Rat Cafeteria (Tampa), Sector 4, Hated Youth, and Paisley Death Camp (all from Tallahassee), No Fraud (Venice), F (Fort Lauderdale), Morbid Opera (Miami), and Crucial Truth (Pompano Beach) also gained an audience and some had songs compiled on the album We Can't Help It If We're From Florida.
Hardcore bands from Orlando 1983-1989 included: Dissent, Damage (U.S.), Zyklon-B (U.S.), The Bully Boys, Florida's Unwanted Children, Sewer Side Rouges, Declared Ungovernable, Contradiction, The Damn Maniacs, and The Genitorturers.
Mid 1980s era band Black Label featured future Rose Shadows bassist John Reece as well as future Bully Boys guitarist Rusty Penrose and John Stalzer on drums. Black Label was only the 2nd band to ever play at the Orlando concertvenue Electric Avenue, the bands inaugural show brought in 981 people! A feat that would never again be accomplished by any local band at that venue. Black Label released one single, the rowdy and comical "Rootbeer For Everyone" a song that was in heavy rotation on Rollins College radio station WPRK which was hosted at the time by future Genitorturers front woman Jen.
Miami bass
Miami bass is a booming, bass-heavy hip hop music that developed in the mid-1980s in Miami. Innovators on the scene included DJ Laz, while the scene eventually gained prominence through the Miami Bass group Luther Campbell's ("Raise the Roof (Luke song)") 2 Live Crew. The lyrics to Miami bass were often sexually explicit, and when 2 Live Crew began to achieve national attention, the words
