I was brought up in a Brahmin family, and read Sanskrit - primarily as my grandmother was a 'Pandit' and a Sanskrit teacher - and read the epics, Ramayana and Mahabharata. For a year of my life, after I went through the 'Upanayana', I performed a puja three times a day. Later in life, I read Upanishad and Gita out of intellectual curiousity. And, yet, this still does not cover the core texts of Hinduism - most critically, the various commentaries by later Holy men, which, for many Hindus, represent the revealed religion.
But this is perhaps the key point: That someone may grow up in a Hindu milieu but never see Hinduism as a religion at all. In fact, one can have quite the opposite: The Upanishads andand who carried ideas from it, from the ancient Arabic and Chinese visitors to the later-day Western scholars and administrators. To try to recast it in the mould of a 'religion', and to try to find heretical ideas to exclude, is as against its grain as anything can be.
The constitution of India, reflecting the optimism of an Independent country, claimed the creation of a democratic republic based on religious freedom ('secular' was added to it later). But this reflected, paradoxically, the British idea of civilising and creating a modern India, allowing for, as the optimism fades, a new search for deep India. But this deep India was always there - the Constitution might have been written by English-trained modern leaders but they were reflecting the ideas wholly consistent

as it turned out to be. And, when Hitler did go after the groups - Communists and Social Democrats first, then the 'degenerates', then the Catholics, then the Jews (with overlaps and many things inbetween, but focusing on one 'public enemy' at a time) - the other groups mostly stood aloof, and even applauded. Till, indeed, the Gestapo came for them. So, Hitler was a non-event - more precisely, Hitler was not called out as The Hitler when he was elected Chancellor.
It is also important to realise the comparison with Hitler somewhat undermine the danger that Trump poses. Hitler was crazy but convinced that he was a man on a mission, the reincarnation of a German hero, and went about his terrible business with a righteous certainty thatwas mind-boggling. Trump on the other hand, is perfectly sane (despite all the ridiculous reports about his mental health) and cynical, though, admittedly, he surrounds himself with a few crazies of his own. He represents not the ancient German hero but the modern CEO, for whom the result matters and not the way, and for whom, power is a tool for personal advancement. And, add to that the realities of the United States - it is the most powerful country in the world and has the tools to enforce its will on anyone, something Germany could do only in Hitler's illusions. Trump is a far more dangerous leader than Hitler: He, as the American President has the ability to wreck the global order in a way a German

Cinematic Universe of The Avengers, and to be aired on Netflix.
Before most of that though, Arrow is back for round three, and by the looks of things, it’s going to be the best series yet. The show has always managed to tread the line between realism and fantasy well; the second season introduced genuine superpowers, upping the game, while also putting Ollie – who, for all his quick reflexes and supreme skill with his hands and his bow, was still a plain old human – on the back foot. He was no longer the dominant force in his hometown of Starling City, but still one of the last things between it and the anarchy at its door.

Republicans in the House are pushing to create a new nongovernmental organization that would take over air traffic control from the FAA in an upcoming funding measure.
Lawmakers are debating the air traffic control privatization proposal as Congress tries to beat a March 31 deadline for renewing the FAA's funding.
GOP leaders in the House have said the proposed nongovernmental entity could better manage commercial and private jet flights in the nation's airspace.
"After examining various models, I believe we need to establish a federally chartered, fully independent not-for-profit corporation to operate and modernize our [air traffic control] services," House Transportation Committee Chairman Bill Shuster (R-Pa.) said during a speech last June at the Aero Club of Washington.
Critics of the proposal say it would amount to a

Since he was sworn in as Secretary of State on February 1, Tillerson and his advisors at the State Department have made a number of statements and policy decisions that contradict Trump's key campaign promises on foreign policy, especially regarding Israel and Iran.
August 10. The State Department hosted representatives of the U.S. Council of Muslim Organizations (USCMO), an umbrella group established by the Muslim Brotherhood with the aim of mainstreaming political Islam in the United States. Behind closed doors, they reportedlydiscussed what they said was Israel's illegal occupation of Palestine and the removal of all Israeli control of the Temple Mount and holy areas of Jerusalem. Observers said the meeting was part of larger effort by anti-Israel organizations to drive a wedge between the Trump administration and Israel. The USCMO includes a number of organizations, including American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), which promote "extreme anti-Israel views" and "anti-Zionist" propaganda, and which support boycotts of the Jewish state.
July 19. The State Department's new "Country Reports on Terrorism 2016" blamed Israel for Palestinian Arab terrorism against Jews. It attributed Palestinian violence to: "lack of hope in achieving statehood;" "Israeli settlement construction in the West Bank;" "settler violence;" and "the perception that the Israeli government was changing the status quo on

The banter continued after the footage. "I'm trying to give people what they want. Me," Johnson said, adding, "The last time I was here [at D23], I was a demi-god, literally." (Johnson was a voice star in Moana.)
Blunt shut him down with her line: "Last time I was here, I was Mary Poppins."

Shortly thereafter, Harvey took a seat at the front of the media room and broadened the scope of his contrition.

Called the Mickey D's from the john. Asked to speak to the manager as, "Mr. Welzein's attorney." They said he was "busy." He was not!
Dropped a massive BM of frustration (NO flush) & came out to give the manager a real smack down. Guess he went on break, so I left a note...
...on a Mickey D's napkin: "Watch your back, kimosabe." Power. Move.
Now that's just fucking awesome. It's a pristine Twitter feed. DadBoner never replies to other people. DadBoner never posts links. DadBoner never does Follow Friday or deviates from the story.For now, at least. At some point, there will be a DadBoner book and probably a DadBoner TV show. And then, the real Karl may decide it's a sound idea to come out to the world (NOTE: I tried looking up "Karl Welzein" and "Carl Welzein" in California, just in case he was hiding his real name in plain sight. No dice.).
Or perhaps he'll just keep on operating in the shadows. Plenty of people online use a screen name even well after they've been firmly established (Gawker's own Mobute is one of them).

He said she had a tag on that indicated she had been to a medical facility.
Officer Walden said Ms. Wininger told him, "I don't want to talk about it. I don't want the police involved." He said she also asked, "I'm not in trouble, am I?" She said she did not know who had called the police.
The officer said he got another call to the same address at 11:22 a.m. on a "male beating a female." He said he found Wininger outside on a cell phone. He said he immediately handcuffed him.
He said Ms. Winingersaid, "Look what he's done to me now."
Officer Walden said she had fresh abrasions on her face and her left eye was black.
He said he took a box cutter from Wininger's pocket. His wife said he had put it to her throat and threatened to kill her.
Ms. Wininger said her husband had kicked and stomped her, then put her in a chair and slapped her around and beat her.
The officer said he was advised that the victim's father was en route "and we need to go ahead and transport him (Wininger)."
Officer Walden said, "I felt if we didn't do something he was going to kill her."

(NIS) database from 2003 to 2011. The NIS is sponsored by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) as a part of Healthcare Cost and Utilization Projection (HCUP). The NIS contains discharge level data from ≈8 million hospitalizations annually from \~1000 hospitals across the United States. This database is designed to represent a 20% stratified sample of all hospitals in the country. Criteria used for stratified sampling of hospitals into the NIS include location (urban or rural), teaching status, geographic region, patient volume, and hospital ownership.
Study Population
----------------
The NIS database provides up to 15 diagnoses and 15 procedures for each hospitalization record for 2003--2009. The number of diagnoses coded in the database was expanded to 25 for 2010--2011. All these have been coded by using the standard *Internationaland the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.[3] Thereafter, dispositions were made in the instance of five defendants[4] and the action remained against Amswiss International Corp. ("Amswiss"), a registered brokerdealer, and Glenn Woo, its president, dominant executive and owner of 50% of its stock.
The alleged violations occurred in 1971 and early in 1972 in connection with the underwriting and aftermarket trading in Meridian Fast Food Services, Inc. ("Meridian"), a corporation engaged *518 in the operation and franchise of "drive-thru" retail dairy stores.
The stipulation of facts by the parties set forth in the pre-trial order together with the evidence presented upon the trial abundantly establishes that defendant Ramon D'Onofrio, convicted on a bankruptcy fraud charge in July 1971 in the Eastern District of New York and on a federal securities

sold by June 22, 1971, of which 20,400, involving thirty purchases, were executed by Amswiss. All but 500 shares were sold to thirty-seven acquaintances of either Cooper or D'Onofrio. Upon the closing of the offering, Meridian received only $38,363 from the net sale proceeds of $75,363, after payment of expenses and certain debt obligations, which still left it insolvent. Amswiss, as a member of the selling group, received $7,140.
THE AFTERMARKET TRADING IN MERIDIAN
With the underwriting completed, Woo arranged for two broker-dealers to make a market for the over-the-counter trading in Meridian. The trading in the aftermarket demonstrates conclusively that forces other than supply and demand were at work.
In a thirty-day period between July 30 and August 30, 1971, all of Cooper's friends, relatives and business acquaintances, with thethe Bank Vom Linthgebiet ("Bank"), that had shown no interest in the offering itself. This sudden interest by the Swiss Bank in Meridian's shares was no accident. In the background was D'Onofrio, who Woo knew had a firm in Switzerland and whose partner was a shareholder in the *520 Bank. Despite Woo's typically evasive statements, there can be no doubt that the Bank's purchases were stimulated by D'Onofrio, who Woo knew was "semi-interested" or "semi-active" in Meridian. Moreover, Woo knew that D'Onofrio used Swiss bank accounts and as early as 1968, Woo had signed papers authorizing D'Onofrio to open a Swiss bank account in Woo's name.
As of September 17, 1971, the Bank had accumulated 18,000 shares in little over a month's time. Most of the other outstanding shares

The California Environmental Protection Agency's Air Resources Board (ARB) today identified particulate emissions from diesel-fueled engines as a toxic air contaminant. Approval by the 11-member board ends a near-decade long scientific investigation into the health effects of exposure to the fine particles and other pollutants in diesel exhaust.
ARB Chairman John Dunlap said, "This closes the identification phase of the examination on the health effects of diesel emissions and allows the ARB to reinvigorate efforts to find additional ways to protect public health. "As part of that process, we will review all existing regulations and emerging technologies to determine if there are further opportunities to reduce emissions from diesel engines," he added.
The ARB concluded its hearing on the matter, which began at last month's meeting. The Board heard morethan six hours of testimony and discussion, including presentations by ARB staff, Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment and the independent Scientific Review Panel (SRP), which monitored the report's development. A decision was postponed last month after more than 60 state legislators asked the ARB to defer a decision until two legislative committee hearings were held on the issue.
During the past month, a proposal was crafted by environmentalists and industry stakeholders, with the aid of ARB staff, which refined the initial proposal to focus on diesel particulate. The tightened proposal will allow for more targeted control efforts and eliminates harmless exhaust components, such as water vapor, without lessening the ARB's ability to control diesel emissions.
"That change gives industry a target, the fine particles in diesel exhaust, to pinpoint

"We had a promise from one of our angels [early backers] to invest in the company, but the piece of paper was not signed," recalls Zacconi. "We wanted to make sure we could pay all our creditors, and to do that we would have had to shut down the company that day."
At the last minute the fax arrived, only for the machine to break down mid-transmission. But King lived to fight another day.
The angel investor was King's chairman, a low-profile, Derby-based businessman called Mel Morris, who at the age of 58 has little in common with the hipsters in silicon roundabout, but just happens to be one of Britain's most successful technology entrepreneurs. Morris built uDate, where Zacconi briefly worked, into the world'ssecond largest online matchmaker before selling it in 2002. He is now King's biggest private investor, holding shares worth $580m.
"Riccardo understands people," says Morris. "His charisma, integrity, sense of fair play and abundant humility allow him to gently lead from the front. Many entrepreneurs fail because they are so single-minded they struggle to scale their business beyond their own limitations. Riccardo succeeds because he allows his management to share the challenges and rewards."
The hardest moment for King came in 2009. Rowland, who was co-chief executive, had left to work on other ventures and Zacconi was in sole charge. King.com was profitable, with revenues of $60m a year from desktop games. But its business was built on attracting traffic from the big internet portals such as Yahoo, and their

Xiaomi Mi 6X official promotional video released ahead of April 25 launch
The Xiaomi Mi 6X will be available in five color choices.
Ahead of the official launch of the Mi 6X, Xiaomi has now released a new promotional video of the anticipated smartphone. The Xiaomi Mi 6X will be launched in China on April 25. It was only yesterday that the company released official images of the smartphone, revealing all the color options it will be available in. The promotional video released today highlights the top features of the Mi 6X.
The video is available on YouTube via a third-party source. It is not possible to ascertain the authenticity of the video or the source, however, given that it falls in line with the previously released images of the MiRaffi Torres
The much maligned Torres had a 2013-14 that makes it tough to predict what will happen when he returns this season. A pre-season injury prevented him from playing in all but five games of last season and he clearly played those games hurt. Nonetheless, he put up three goals ...
Sharks GM Doug Wilson said he expects Torres (knee) to be back for the start of training camp, NHL.com's Eric Gilmore reports. "it looks good for [Torres] to be back in September," Wilson said. "He's progressing really well."

"The world's biggest troll", Cruella de Vil and a Bond villain. That's one pundit's unflattering portrait of Gina Rinehart, amid largely scathing international coverage of her latest speech.
Much of the overseas coverage of Mrs Rinehart's speech to the Sydney Mining Club, posted on YouTube, has been scathing and sarcastic, with the Atlantic Wire, a sister website to The Atlantic magazine, calling her the "world's biggest troll".
"Rinehart, an Australian, was (we think) trying to make a point about wages and bettering Australia's mining industry," the article said.
"Why she chose to say that Australians should look at the sad state of African miners making less than $2 per day is beyond us."The American media botched the story of Donald Trump. Following his victory in the US presidential election last week, journalists have been reflecting on the blind spots that led them to underestimate the potency of his following—and the possibility that a man who ran on a white nationalist platform could become the leader of the free world.
There are a number of factors that led the mainstream media astray in the 2016 election: polls, social media echo chambers, and an underestimation of white anger, among other factors. But among the most important is a lack of geographic diversity among mainstream journalists themselves, which blinded them to Trump’s appeal.
In my current life as a New York journalist, I fall firmly into the category of the well-educated, liberal city-dweller Trump so

At one point after one of the leaders recorded a triple bogey, Wright said: "Now it's a whole new ballgame."
Which caused producer Frank Chirkinian to bellow through his headset: "From whom did you learn that expression, you dumb Limey?"
Wright explained that he learned it from Americans.
"Well, let me tell you this," Chirkinian said. "You are employed as a Limey, and all Limeys speak like they have plums in their mouths, and nobody here understands a thing they say. If I ever understand another word you say, you're fired."
That night, Wright wantedto quit and tried to book a flight home on British Airways, but every seat was taken. He stayed and remained at CBS for nearly a quarter-century.
After that, Wright had a chance to join NBC, but he blew that opportunity by talking too much about his lesbian comments in his book, "Good Bounces and Bad Lies." He was asked by "The Golf Channel" to be a studio analyst for the 2008 Ryder Cup at Valhalla in Louisville, but they didn't want to pay him anything.
"So my agent told them to go (bleep) themselves," Wright said.
When he watches golf now, he hits the mute button.
"There's too much babble," Wright said. "It's like a radio show for the blind."

Cons: Huckabee is taken more seriously as a cultural force than as a political figure. And like Santorum, he would bring rightward drift to the ticket at a time when the Romney campaign is counting on the Republican base remaining steadfast (because of the party's intense opposition to Obama) and is focused instead on winning over independents and moderates.cnxps.cmd.push(function () { cnxps({ playerId: '36af7c51-0caf-4741-9824-2c941fc6c17b' }).render('4c4d856e0e6f4e3d808bbc1715e132f6'); });

get very angry, which usually triggers his Devil Fruit power.
Don Accino is also rather fond of his collection of captured pirate flags. He enjoys passing the time by looking at them while he drinks. He also enjoys making it bigger with every single pirate flag he and his family captures. Naturally, he becomes extremely furious if his collection is harmed in any way, which causes his powers to sky-rocket.
Relationships Edit
Family Edit
As the patriarch of the Accino Family, Don Accino is well respected and loved by his children. They would do anything to please him. Don Accino's children however are extremely afraid of his temper. Because the Don ate the Atsu Atsu no Mi and produces dangerously high amounts of heat when he is angry, his children try theirmiddle of his hands.[1][4] Thanks to his power, he can also fly by producing steam from his body, produce a layer of heat to block and nullify enemy attacks, create strong scorching hot whirlwinds, and he can even swim in and drink lava.
History Edit
Ice Hunter Arc Edit
Don Accino was first seen looking at his collection of pirate flags when his children came in.[1] With them attending, Accino celebrated his birthday party. After being told of his children's plan to give to him the Straw Hats' bounty as his birthday present, Accino toasted for his children's success and started the hunt for the Straw Hats.[5]
Later, Don Accino was reported by his eldest son, Campacino, that the Straw Hats' ship had somehow managed to escape Hyokaido. Accino however reassured his

son not to worry and said that they should simply capture the Straw Hats' flag to rectify the situation. His orders were then passed onto from Campacino to Accino's youngest daughter, Lil.[6]
He was then seen drinking, while he waited for his "present". He glimpsed Zoro go past the window, but Campacino said he's probably too drunk.[7]
He was afterwards seen lying on an iceberg, being very irritated at Campacino,that the flag weren't there yet and he couldn't start the party without them. Campacino was then called away by Brindo and Don was left alone. He got confronted by Zoro, with whom he took a drink. He bragged about his pirate flag collection, just as one of Lil's flying birds bring in the Straw Hats' Jolly Roger, to Zoro's chagrin.fight.[4]
After his children got beaten, he walked out into the cold and prepared to face off against Luffy.[2]
Luffy confronted the Don and demanded his flag. The Don became very angry and "heated up". Luffy tried to punch him, but the Don could heat up any part of his body and so Luffy couldn't land a single hit. However, Luffy then used a slab of ice and rammed it into Accino with a Gomu Gomu no Bazooka.
Meanwhile, Puzzle fought Campacino and managed to defeat him. At the same time, his crew secured their ship, which had been stolen by the Domo Penguins.
As the fight progressed, the Don got even angrier and Lovey Land started melting. He utilized his power at 5.500 degrees and started throwing "atsuyaki eggs" (heatballs) at

attendant who accompanied Prince Siddhattha
when he renounced the world and left the palace on horseback. When the prince attained
Buddhahood, Channa also became a bhikkhu. As a bhikkhu, he was very arrogant and
overbearing because of his close connection to the Buddha. Channa used to say, "I
came along with my Master when he left the palace for the forest. At that time, I was the
only companion of my Master and there was no one else. But now, Sariputta and Moggallana
are saying, 'we are the Chief Disciples,' and are strutting about the place."
When the Buddha sent for him and admonished him for his
behaviour, he kept silent but continued to abuse and taunt the two Chief Disciples. Thus
the Buddha sent for him and admonished him three times; still, he did not change.ignore him and to have nothing to do with him.
After the parinibbana of the Buddha, Channa, learning
about the punishment from Thera Ananda, felt a deep and bitter remorse for having done
wrong and he fainted three times. Then, he owned up his guilt to the bhikkhus and asked
for pardon. From that moment, he changed his ways and outlook. He also obeyed their
instructions in his meditation practice and soon attained arahatship.
While residing at the Jetavana monastery, the Buddha
uttered Verse (79) of this book, with reference to Thera Mahakappina.
Mahakappina was king of Kukkutavati. He had a queen named
Anoja; he also had one thousand ministers to help him rule the country. One day, the king
accompanied by those one thousand ministers, was out in the park. There, they met some
merchants from Savatthi. On

through him his son and his
wife also attained arahatship. To them the Buddha said, "Bhikkhus, a wise man does
not wish for wealth and prosperity by doing evil, whether it is for his own sake or for
the sake of others. He only works for his own liberation from the round of rebirths
(samsara) by comprehending the Dhamma and living according to the Dhamma."
Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:
Verse 84. For
his own sake or for the sake of others, he does no evil; nor does he wish for sons and
daughters or for wealth or for a kingdom by doing evil; nor does he wish for success by
unfair means; such a one is indeed virtuous, wise and just.
While residing at the Jetavana monastery, the Buddha
uttered Verses (85) and (86) ofthis book, with reference to a congregation of people who
had come to listen to a religious discourse in Savatthi.
On one occasion, a group of people from Savatthi made
special offerings to the bhikkhus collectively and they arranged for some bhikkhus to
deliver discourses throughout the night, in their locality. Many in the audience could not
sit up the whole night and they returned to their homes early; some sat through the night,
but most of the time they were drowsy and half-asleep. There were only a few who listened
attentively to the discourses.
At dawn, when the bhikkhus told the Buddha about what
happened the previous night, he replied, "Most people are attached to this world;
only a very few reach the other shore (Nibbana)."
Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Yew, and the Blood Oak. In those days, the lines between the Feywild and the Prime Material plane were almost non-existent, especially in forests, which likely existed in both realms simultaneously. The spirits of these World Trees were like minor goddesses of their forests, knowing every creature and protecting them from harm. It is said that the first druids learned their powers from these dryads. In the forests of the Feywild, these mountain-sized trees were known as the Forest Monarchs, and they were as constant a feature as cold in the winter.
When the Dawn War happened, though, many of the world trees were damaged and destroyed by primordials seeking to weaken the gods of nature. Other conflicts between the gods may have also harmed these trees, as didPaulo Maximo. They killed this face-changer in the [[Session 38: Complete and Utter Bull! | battle of the Mythal]], though, and were unable to gain any information from it before its death (after the Mythal was stolen).
Zax, Cloak of Kings
Legends tell of a dwarf who figured out how to spin gold into fabric. He began spinning a cloak, but that night as he worked, a star fell from the sky and destroyed him. When elven arcanists examined the crater, they found this cloak. The first elf to wear the cloak found himself drawn to the forest, where he eventually became a leader in Myth Drannor. Later it passed on to a nearby human, who donned the cape and became the first King of Nerath. Decades later it was

Jeff Roorda, a retired police officer, former Missouri state representative, and the current business manager for the St. Louis Police Officers Association, is among those who allege the aggression against police is driving an increase in violent crime.
"Police are under an unprecedented verbal attack from the mainstream media and politicians as well as an unprecedented physical attack from criminals whose acts of anti-police violence are emboldened by these rhetorical assaults on law enforcement," he told WND.
Roorda, author of "The War On Police: How The Ferguson Effect Is Making America Unsafe," claims police officers are being lost "in droves" because of the multifaceted "war" being waged against them.
"Police departments are dangerously understaffed as a result and recruiting has become every bit as difficult as retention," he said.Making America Unsafe" now at the WND Superstore
Colin Flaherty, who chronicled black mob violence directed against whites nationwide in his book "White Girl Bleed A Lot," pinned the blame on the Obama administration for telling criminals, especially African-Americans, they were not responsible for their own criminal behavior.
"Instead, black criminals are regarded as victims of white racism," Flaherty complained. "Telling criminals that crime is not their fault is just about the most dangerous thing a government can do – and the Obama crowd did just that daily."
Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, a WND columnist, civil rights leader, founder of BOND (Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny) and author of "The Antidote: Healing America From The Poison Of Hate, Blame and Victmhood," agreed Obama is at least partially to blame.

of the Bankruptcy Code. Chrysler filed a secured proof of claim on June 4, 1994. On March 29, 1995, Main Street's Second Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization ("the Plan") was confirmed. The Plan reflected that Main Street owed Chrysler $924,389.32. Chrysler filed continuation statements with the Secretary of State on December 6, 1994 and August 1, 1995 and with the Clerk of Camden County on November 18, 1994 and September 6, 1995.
Main Street eventually defaulted under the Plan. On April 30, 1997, the bankruptcy court ordered that Main Street's liquor license be sold at a public auction, with the preservation of existing liens. On May 27, 1997, Progress Bank purchased the liquor *306 license at a public auction conducted by the bankruptcy court for the minimum bid ofgeneral intangible and in the proceeds of the sale of Main Street's liquor license; (4) that the IRS had a duly perfected and filed federal tax lien on Main Street's liquor license; and (5) that the IRS's federal tax lien is entitled to priority over Chrysler's security interest. Accordingly, the bankruptcy court ordered that the remainder of the proceeds of the sale of Main Street's liquor license after deduction of certain necessary and reasonable costs be distributed to the IRS.
On August 6, 1997, Chrysler filed a Notice of Appeal of the July 31, 1997 Orders. That same day, Chrysler also moved before the bankruptcy court for an order staying distribution of the proceeds from the sale of Main Street's liquor license, as directed by the July 31, 1997

court on Chrysler's appeal of the November 21, 1997 Order. The IRS's opposition to that conclusion of the bankruptcy court is a matter of record below. Indeed, the bankruptcy court expressly noted during the October 27, 1997 oral argument regarding its reconsideration of the July 31, 1997 Orders that the IRS had not waived its right to attack the bankruptcy court's conclusion about the validity of Chrysler's security interest. (See Transcript of the October 21, 1997 Oral Argument ("Tr.") at 2:13-4:15.) The bankruptcy court then proceeded to hear argument from the IRS on that point. (See Tr. at 10:1-15:21.) Under these circumstances, the IRS is not precluded from challenging the bankruptcy court's conclusion in this court on Chrysler's appeal.
Having determined that the IRS may challenge the bankruptcy court'ssale of his liquor license when he acquires the license, the licensee can grant a valid security interest in that right to a holder who can its security interest in that right even though the eventual sale of the license remains a mere contingency. The IRS argues, on the other hand, that Chrysler's interest should be determined as of the time prior to sale, when the license was still in Main Street's hands, and that at that time the only creditor that could have had a perfected lien in the license itself was the IRS, and not a private creditor such as Chrysler, due to N.J.S.A. 33:1-26.
The Third Circuit rejected an argument very similar to Chrysler's in 21 West Lancaster, supra, a case involving a priority dispute between

On my trip down from New York, I was treated to many trade suggestions which would allow the Orioles to acquire Cliff Lee, Chase Utley, or, for the really ambitious, both. (No dice yet, O's fans: when I'd gotten as far as Philadelphia, Phillies manager Charlie Manuel was talking on his WIP-FM radio show about his plan to get his Phils into first place with a few winning streaks. They're not waving the white flag yet.)
Still, these Orioles aren't built purely to win now. The team's best player is probably its youngest -- 20-year-old phenom Manny Machado at third base. Most of the key contributors are under 30; the number two prospect in the game (per Baseball America) is Orioles' Double-A pitcher Dylan Bundy. The Orioles are winningnow; but they've arrived ahead of schedule.
Fans are appreciative. They filled the stadium halfway on a cold, rainy Tuesday night against the Padres; better than 30,000 came for a Wednesday afternoon tilt. And lest you point a skeptical eye toward the "tickets sold" totals, the park actually appeared to contain roughly the number of people the attendance number suggested it should.
A fair number of them wore Buck Showalter jerseys, and support for the Orioles' manager, now in his fourth year, is enormous.
"He really came here and changed the culture," longtime season ticket holder Bill Clark said as we chatted next to Boog's BBQ prior to Tuesday night's game. "He has them believing they're going to win, and he has us believing they're going to win."

Knicks win despite mere 35 from Melo
New York's J.R. Smith passes around Los Angeles' Kendall Marshall during the second half of Sunday's game at Madison Square Garden. The Knicks defeated the Lakers 110-103.
Published January 27. 2014 12:01AM | Updated January 27. 2014 2:23AM
By BRIAN MAHONEY AP Basketball Writer
New York — No 62-point game for Carmelo Anthony on Sunday. He didn't even match his first-half total from Friday night.
He didn't have to, with the Knicks offering him plenty of support for a change.
Anthony scored 35 points, four teammates had at least 13, and New York beat the Los Angeles Lakers 110-103 on Sunday.
"I don't think they just wanted to watch me out there playing offensively," Anthony said. "They wanted to be a part of it and they did."
Anthony finishedwith two points fewer than he had at halftime of his record-setting night, but he scored six straight New York points down the stretch after the Lakers cut the Knicks' lead to two with just over 5 minutes left.
Raymond Felton scored a season-high 20 points, rookie Tim Hardaway Jr. had 18 and J.R. Smith 16 for the Knicks, who won their second straight following a five-game losing streak. Tyson Chandler had 13 points and 14 rebounds.
"He's a guy that, he just wants to win," Felton said about Anthony. "Sometimes he likes to take it on his shoulders, so we have to take some of that pressure off of him by hitting shots, by making plays offensively."
Jodie Meeks scored 24 points for the Lakers, but he was shut out

fight for Hasakeh, as well as strikes by the US-led coalition outside the city, he said.
Another 120 soldiers and pro-regime militiamen and several dozen Kurdish forces were also killed.
State news agency SANA said Syria's armed forces "dealt great blows to the Daesh (ISIS) terrorists…in Zuhur" Tuesday, but did not say the jihadists had been pushed out of the city.
"Army units advanced again into Zuhur, where they executed a special operation against the terrorist hotbeds," it reported.
ISIS has attacked Hasakeh city several times, but the latest assault was the most serious yet.
Its forces initially seized several districts in the southern part of the city, with Kurdish fighters and regime troops mobilizing against them.
The Observatory said ISIS had used at least 21 car bombs and several suicide bombers during theKU football RB Darrian Miller's long and winding road as a Jayhawk
This morning's news that Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis would welcome back to the program former running back Darrian Miller certainly adds more depth and talent to an already loaded KU backfield.
But it also added another chapter to the long and winding road that Miller has traveled to become a Jayhawk.
The following is a quick timeline of the Darrian-Miller-to-KU era, which may be more extensive than many remember.
It was not easy for the Jayhawks to land Missouri's all-time high school rushing leader in the first place and, although he performed well throughout his first season in Lawrence, the ups and downs continued through this morning, when Weis announced that Miller was coming back.

strong. (See pages 75.[*] 76, and 84.) This *317 judgment of the court is entitled to the more weight, because the opinion is stated in the report of the case to have been unanimous; and Judge Washington, who was the only member of the court absent at the first argument, delivered the opinion of the second.
We concur entirely in the correctness of the rule above stated. It is difficult, perhaps, to draw a line that would be applicable in all cases between legitimate alterations of the remedy and provisions which, in the form of remedy, impair the right. But it is manifest that the obligation of the contract, and the rights of a party under it, may, in effect, be destroyed by denying a remedy altogether; or maymaintain the integrity of contracts, and to secure their faithful execution throughout this Union, by placing them under the protection of the Constitution of the United States. And it would but ill become this court, under any circumstances, to depart from the plain meaning of the words used, and to sanction a distinction between the right and the remedy, which would render this provision illusive and nugatory; mere words of form, affording no protection, and producing no practical result.
We proceed to apply these principles to the case before us. According to the long-settled rules of law and equity in all of the states whose jurisprudence has been modelled upon the principles of the common law, the legal title to the premises in question vested in the complainant, upon

Along with the vivid image activity, the audience would be personally on the scene involuntarily, and have very real and thrilling feelings.

Bernie Sanders, for the moment the front-runner in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination, has built his campaign on the idea that the U.S. government should provide all Americans with many of the basic necessities of life.
What do those necessities include? Healthcare, of course. "Medicare for all" has been Sanders' persistent and dominant campaign theme, in many ways the raison d'etre of his presidential quest. As Sanders says, the United States should "guarantee healthcare to all people as a right."
But Sanders' philosophical conviction that the government should be responsible for providing the basics of life extends well beyond healthcare. A glance at the Sanders campaign website shows his proposals that the government guarantee:
Medicare for all
Jobs for all
Housing for all
College for all
Justice and safety for all

Top cop resigns in disgrace over link to racist and obscene posts
One of Victoria Police's most senior officers and the head of the force's Professional Standards Command has resigned in disgrace over racist and obscene posts made under the pseudonym Vernon Demerest.
Assistant Commissioner Brett Guerin, head of Professional Standards and a police officer of 40 years, was last week referred to Victoria's anti-corruption watchdog after The Age revealed he posted shocking comments under the online pseudonym "Vernon Demerest".
The Age revealed on Monday that that nom de plume has been also linked to several vile posts on social media under the Demerest alias, including references to "cheating dagos", "third world dullards", "Indian and Pakistani peasant[s]" and "jigaboo[s]".
Within an hour of The Age revealing the new allegations, Mr Guerin resignedAnti-corruption Commission last week after The Age revealed he was responsible for offensive comments about former Chief Commissioner Christine Nixon and former Police Association boss Paul Mullett on a blog.
Mr Guerin admitted on Thursday that he was behind the comments made under the name Vernon Demerest, after the fictional character played by Dean Martin in the 1970 movie Airport.
Last Friday, he was directed by Chief Commissioner Graham Ashton to take leave while the state's corruption watchdog investigates him.
Of Ms Nixon and Mr Mullett, "Demerest" wrote in August 2016: "She [Ms Nixon] bent the Mulletmeister [Mr Mullett] over and slipped a rather large schlong up his date courtesy of the Supreme Court's decision this morning."
It is expected IBAC will now also investigate the racist comments made under Mr Guerin's

he had been injured on the job in the meantime. No formal
disciplinary action was taken against Gates. After his injury,
Gates went on workers’ compensation leave, and during that
time began working a second job at the University of Illinois‐
Chicago. Rivera informed an employee with the Board’s legal
department that Gates had taken several extensive leaves and
then found a second job. Gates believed that Rivera took this
action to have him fired.
When Gates returned from his leave in November 2014, he
was assigned to the Far South Side or Southwest Collabora‐
tive, a group of traveling building engineers who work at dif‐
ferent schools throughout the southwest side of Chicago. In
the position at William C. Goudy Technology Academy that
Gates held before his leaves, he was a Class 3 engineer (the
lowest‐paid of three classes), earning around $82,000 to
$87,000 a year.2 When Gates testified at his deposition in 2016,
he was a Class 2 engineer with the Southwest Collaborative
earning between $94,000 and $97,000 a year.
B. Proceedings in Civil Rights Agencies and the District Court
Gates never filed a formal internal complaint with the
Board about the discrimination he says he suffered. Instead,
on April 14, 2014, he filed a formal charge of discrimination
with the Illinois Department of Human Rights and the United
States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. The
EEOC issued Gates a notice of his right to sue. Gates then filed
a five‐count complaint against the Board in the district court
2 The term Chief Engineer was abolished in 2012 under the terms of a
collective bargaining agreement. When the title was in use, it applied au‐
tomatically to any building engineer appointed to a school with only one
engineer—so Gates was the Chief Engineer at Goudy.

alleging DESTIN, Fla. – Steve Shaw insists the Southeastern Conference is not purposefully surrendering its officiating soul to up-tempo offense.
But the league's supervisor of officials did say here at the league's spring meetings Thursday that the SEC will experiment in 2014 with a single eight-man officiating crew, with the added official (the "center judge") assigned to spot the football in an orderly and accurate fashion. And the sooner the ball is spotted, the sooner a no-huddle team can line up and get it snapped. It may not be an outright facilitation of fast football, but it is at least an acknowledgment of it.
"The intent is not to change our pace," Shaw said.
Spotting the ball is not a pressing issue unless there are teams pressing the pace of play. Thus

plaintiff, Novelty also sells plush toys. Two of defendant's toys, "Fartman" and his juvenile counterpart, "Fartboy," are at the heart of the instant dispute.
The crux of plaintiff's complaint is that defendant's Fartman and Fartboy infringe its copyright in Fred. Fred is a figure of a balding man in a white tank top, blue pants, and brown shoes, sitting in a green chair. When his right finger is pinched, Fred emits flatulence-like sounds, his chair vibrates, and he jokes about the sound he just made (for example, "Silent, but deadly," and "Did somebody step on a duck?"). Fred has been featured on "The Howard Stern Radio Show," the nationally-syndicated WGN-network news, and PBS-affiliate WTTW's "Wild Chicago" program, and has been exhibited at numerous trade shows.

A simple model of a photonic device generally comprises an active region sandwiched between a layer to carry negative charge carriers to the active region and a layer to carry positive carriers to the active region. In the active region the negative carriers and positive carriers can radiatively recombine to generate light. If the active region has a thickness, and a different composition from the two charge carrying layers, a quantum well is formed. The layers on either side of a quantum well are typically called cladding layers. If the active region is a theoretical construct having no thickness, a diode junction is formed.

====================
Mr. A was first examined by the MMHU I-T in 2007, at the age of 50 years. The patient had an established 8-year history of conversion disorder, with onset after a Guillain-Barré syndrome, for which he had been treated in the neurologic ward. His neurologic symptoms had been remitted completely, and repeated electromyogram examinations were normal afterwards. However, he displayed a permanent, though fluctuating leg weakness and although he could walk or even dance in some instances, he mostly used a wheelchair for his transfers. Importantly, the

The sculptures were created by International Mosaiculture of Montreal. Matheson says she saw some of the nonprofit's work almost a decade ago and had been trying to bring them to the Atlanta Botanical Garden since. The current exhibit in Atlanta is the group's first in the United States. And since opening in May, attendance at the Atlanta Botanical Garden doubled compared to the same time frame lastabout it, and we're in a really good place right now.

Although these imbalances exist, it does not mean that the country is incapable of handling public health emergency. During this pandemic of COVID-19, China dispatched tens of thousands of healthcare workers from across the country to aid Hubei Province, the region hit hardest by COVID-19. Although the pandemic is still continuing, China has taken control of the spread by adhering to the principles of emergency preparedness: identify, inform, and isolate.
In this article, a summary of theof ICU staff among the three regions. The training of specialists in critical care medicine in China began in 2010, which required residents to receive a 3-year standardized training after graduating from the medical school, and at the end of the 3rd year of training, the examinations on theoretical and practical knowledge were required. After that, the residents need to take the Chinese Critical Care Certificate Course (5C) held by Chinese Society of Critical Care Medicine (CMA-CSCCM) to become an intensivist. Now, more than 20,000 ICU doctors in China have obtained the 5C certification \[[@B8]\].

"I'm asking you whether the special counsel or anyone with the special counsel's investigative team made inquiry to you, whether or not any bias or prejudice that would be reflected in the text 'F Trump' impacted any actions that you took, any decisions you made, any information or evidence that you gathered?"
Ratcliffe was pitched for attorney general
Ratcliffe's sharp questioning of Mueller last week may have put the Texas Republican over the edge to become Trump's choice for the director of national intelligence, but Ratcliffe was a known commodity at the White House well before the special counsel probe concluded.
Gowdy, who considers Ratcliffe a close friend and has stayed in touch after leaving Congress, helped get the Texas Republican on Trump's radar last year for a different administration job:attorney general.
Gowdy said in an interview that he tried to set up a meeting with Trump to pitch Ratcliffe for the role after Jeff Sessions was fired in November 2018, but the meeting was delayed and Barr had already been selected.
Trump still met with Gowdy, which was Gowdy's first direct interaction with the President, giving him the chance to talk up Ratcliffe as a great candidate, Gowdy said.
Gowdy wasn't the only one pitching Ratcliffe. He was also floated by Fox News' Gregg Jarrett and former Rep. Jason Chaffetz on Fox News' "Hannity" the day that Sessions was ousted.
"By the way, I agree with Gregg, I hope that President Trump appoints John Ratcliffe, I think he is best person to do that," Chaffetz said.

Injury-plagued Collingwood tall forward Ben Reid is making an unlikely push for an AFL finals recall. As the Magpies sweat on Darcy Moore's latest hamstring setback, teammate Tyson Goldsack has flagged Reid as a finals selection bolter. Reid has not played since round 15, when he suffered another calf muscle injury in an innocuous incident against North Melbourne. He then hurt a hamstring while in recovery but Mason Cox's season-ending eye injury has given Reid a glimmer of hope. "His mood was 'yeah, maybe that's it for me', then Coxy goes down and the door opens," Goldsack told Channel Seven's Game Day. "Reidy has been training really hard and he's looking likely to come back, so watch this space."

Epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) was detected by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and virus isolation from the spleen and lung tissues of two white-tailed deer. Virus neutralization tests were performed on pre- and postoutbreak sera from other species maintained in the same facility, including bison (Bison bison), elk (Cervus elaphus), domestic cattle (Bos taurus), and domestic goats (Capra hircus), as well as postoutbreak sera from the surviving

triumphs in his ability to depict a Russian society under strain and then under siege in War and Peace. And in a very different sort of book, it is a letter from an exiled Napoleon that sets the entire plot of Alexandre Dumas' The Count of Monte Cristo into motion.
A painting of Napoleon's retreat from Russia
In the novels written in the late 20th and 21st centuries the presence of Napoleon takes interesting shape. Patrick O'Brian and Bernard Cornwell have each produced masterful novels of men fighting the French. But the wars take a background role in most other Regency-era books, that surge of historical fiction and romances that is to some degree inspired by Austen. What complicates it further is that Bonaparte himself stars in a number ofhistorical novels, focusing on his marriages to the calculating Créole Josephine and the stolid Austrian princess Marie-Louise. Even his Bonaparte siblings get a piece of the action.Of Honest Fame refuses to flinch from the ugliness of war and its devaluing of human life, the obliterating horror of torture and rape. There are no battles in the book; it is not a "war novel." But each character in the book is molded—if not scarred—by England's grueling conflict with France while retaining his or her innate humanity and need for companionship and love. M.M. Bennetts' book could never be described as romance fiction. And yet it contains a relationship between two outsiders—a rejected and terrified wife and a debauched yet determined spy—that is tremendously moving and quite erotic. Still, the

exposes the administration to yet another Michael Brown fiasco if, as is eventually likely, a terrorist eludes the demoralized immigration agents at ICE on his way to killing Americans.“The response of House Republicansto any talk of new immigrationprograms has been‘Enforcement First.’”Columnist and blogger Michelle Malkin has suggested a much better pick for the ICE job: Peter Nuñez — Navy veteran, Reagan-era U.S. Attorney in San Diego, and Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Enforcement during the first Bush administration. His views on immigration are more in line with those of NR than the White House, but this should actually be an additional selling point: By selecting Nuñez as the nation’s top immigration-enforcement officer, the president would have much more credibility with Congress and the public in trying tosell his immigration proposals.

Saud doesn't say it, but one can read "conflict... that is the main worry of all the neighbours of Iraq" with the understanding that his worry arises from the possibility of internal as well as external disruption. From some perspectives, maybe that's a good thing. Maybe, even, that was the philosophical basis for OIF to begin with.

Vogue magazine's Fashion Features Director Harriet Quick believes the store has, on some level, been a victim of its own success: "It really spawned a huge interest in vintage that didn't exist before they came into being: and they have perhaps suffered as a result, because eBay and other vintage stores have opened in their wake and made sourcing truly unique clothes much more competitive.
"However, the shop has been hugely important as an influential fashion outlet, selling a really well-chosen selection of stock, from nameless hippy fur waistcoats to exquisite Christian Dior cocktail dresses and the span of prices that represented that.
"I once bought a Loewe handbag in there and a St Laurent blouse, and remember being thrilled with my purchases: once vintage was taboo, now it'sa vintage jewellery stand in the renowned Chenil Antiques Gallery on the Kings Road, a business that Tracy and her brother Mark both grew up with a natural instinct for.

Now a mother of two with an enviably individual sense of style, she is pragmatic about the experience of running the store and its imminent closure.

In an interview with The New Paper in 2008 on his book, My Singapore, Mr Chuahad said: "History is not just text and old photographs. Cartoons lighten up the pages and one cartoon is enough to tell a thousand words."
In 2014, he illustrated a book about Singapore's founding prime minister Lee Kuan Yew, titled LKY: Political Cartoons.
Mr Chua explained what compelled him to create the book in a video interview, which was posted by Epigram Books in the Facebook post.
He said: "I grew up in his era. I think Lee Kuan Yew must have had a lighter side (to) his life. That's why I produced this book for him and the people of Singapore, to know the human side of Lee Kuan Yew."

that the simple country folk might not be led astray. Similarly the Synod of Ravenna, 1311, ordained that Jews should be allowed to live only in cities that had synagogues. The Synod of Bologna, 1317, forbade renting or selling houses to Jews, and the Synod of Salamanca, 1335, forbade Jews to live near a churchyard or in houses belonging to the Church. Finally, the Spanish Council of Palencia, 1388, under the presidency of Pedro de Luna, demanded separate quarters for Jews and Saracens, a demand afterward renewed by many Church councils.
The compulsory conversion of Jews was often forbidden by the councils (for instance, Toledo, 633; Prague, 1349). Toward the end of the Middle Ages the General Council of Basel, in its nineteenth sitting (1434), adopted a new methodof moral suasion by compelling the Jews to listen periodically to sermons for their conversion, a decision renewed, for instance, by the Synod of Milan in 1565.
A last attack on the scanty freedom of the Jews was brought about directly by the art of printing. The committee on index of the General Council of Trent (1563) decided to refer to the pope the question of placing the Talmud on the list of forbidden books; and although the Italian Jews succeeded with bribes in preventing the absolute prohibition of the work, it was permitted to be printed only on condition that the title "Talmud" and all passages supposed to be hostile to Christianity be omitted (Mortara, in "Hebr. Bibl." 1862, pp. 74, 96; see Censorship of Hebrew Books).

signed the LDA (over one month prior to the signing of the 1953 Treaty), a bilateral treaty was also signed between Germany and the United Statesthe Validation Treaty. This treaty, signed at Bonn, Germany on February 27, 1953, "set in operation in the United States procedures for the validation of dollar bonds held outside Germany on January 1, 1945"bonds that required validation under the German Validation Law. Enclosure 7(d), 233.
The Validation Treaty's preamble begins with a brief history of the German dollar bonds. See Validation Treaty, 4 U.S.T. 797, at pmbl. It states:
[A]ny payment on bonds which are illegally held and which no longer represent valid obligations of the issuers, not only would be inequitable to the German debtors, but would necessarily reduce the amount of foreign exchangeor other funds available to make payments to their legitimate creditors, a large number of whom are nationals of the United States.
Id. As a result of the "uncertainties" arising from the possibility of illegal and invalid bonds infiltrating the market, "the free and open trading in the United States of all German dollar bonds [was] impeded...." Id. It was determined that illegally held bonds "should be declared invalid." *1317 Id. Because the German bonds were "bearer instruments," the United States and Germany felt the "most practical method" of invalidating illegal bonds was "a procedure which [would] require that all German foreign currency bonds, including dollar bonds, be submitted for a determination of their validity." Id. (emphasis added). To that end, Germany enacted the Validation Law, which Germany "desired"

1953 Treaty and validation requirement apply to all bonds is correct.
Admittedly the LDA was a multinational treaty that affected only those who assented; it did not affect the rights of non-assenters such as World Holdings. But did the bilateral 1953 Treaty's mandatory language: "No bond . . . shall be enforceable unless and until it shall be validated...." 1953 Treaty, 4 U.S.T. 885, at Art. II, apply to all bondholders, or just LDA-assenting bondholders?
a. The purpose of validation contained in the 1953 Treaty is best served by requiring validation by non-assenters.
Plaintiff seeks to convince the Court that there is ambiguity in the 1953 Treaty and LDA, thus allowing consideration of extraneous sources. (See Mot. Opp'n 7-11). The Court is not convinced that ambiguity exists. The 1953 Treaty isWorld Holdings contends the word "procedure" in the LDA Annex I referred to the 1953 Treaty.[27] (Id.). But, on the same day the LDA was signed, the United States and Germany signed the Validation Treaty, establishing the procedure for validation. See Enclosure 7(d), 231 ("[A] bilateral agreement between the Government of the United States and the Government of the Federal Republic [of Germany] was signed on February 27, 1953, which outlines the procedure for validation *1333 of dollar bonds held outside Germany on January 1, 1945."). The 1953 Treaty was not signed until April 1, 1953. See generally 1953 Treaty, 4 U.S.T. 885. Moreover, the 1953 Treaty explicitly refers to the Validation Treaty and the "procedures" outlined therein. Id. at pmbl, Art. II; World Holdings, 613 F.3d at

1313. Thus, contrary to World Holdings's position, the "procedures" called for in the LDA referred to the Validation Treaty and not the 1953 Treaty.
As discussed, the LDA called for a second treaty to enact procedures for validation so that eligibility for LDA settlement could be determined. See London Debt Agreement, Annex I, 527. World Holdings's theory is that it was the 1953 Treaty which created these validation procedures. (See Summ. J. Hr'g 51:18-52:8). But World Holdings ignores that a third treaty, the Validation Treaty, had previously set up a procedure for validating bonds, as the Validation Law required. If, as World Holdings contends, the 1953 Treaty was only negotiated to set up a validation procedure, and the Validation Treaty had already accomplished that, then the 1953 Treaty isoffer to validate. That would simply allow holders of invalid bonds to wait before seeking payment until those who settled under the LDA were paid. Or, holders of looted bonds could seek to enforce them in the United States. This is contrary to the comprehensive validation scheme. The 1953 Treaty was enacted to "make validation effective and to bar the assertion of claims by holders of bonds looted by the Russians," and had "the purpose of preventing holders of non-validated bonds from enforcing these bonds in judicial or other proceedings in the United States." Enclosure 7(d), 234. This was to provide "assurance that claims prejudicial to the settlement [would] not be asserted on the basis of bonds unlawfully acquired." Id.

Mouton fur (North America) or beaver lamb (UK) is sheepskin which has been processed to resemble beaver or seal fur ( is French for "sheep"). Mouton fur is lambskin whose hair has been straightened, chemically treated, and thermally set to produce a moisture-repellent finish. Mouton is often dyed brown to resemble beaver, but it is also made in many other colors.

history. The trip was sponsored with the generous support of PLAS, the Department of Anthropology and the Fred Fox Fund.
"Our overall objective was to see how competing interpretations of the Dec. 20 events — doom vs. dawn, non-indigenous vs. indigenous, etc. — played out on the ground," Smith said.
During a one-week trip to Guatemala to learn about social movements and ethnicity in Latin America, six Princeton students, above, and their professor, Timothy J. Smith, observed the celebrations marking the alleged "end of the world" predicted by the ancient Maya calendar on Dec. 20, 2012. (Photo by Timothy J. Smith)
Smith describes the group's experience in Guatemala:
"On Dec. 20 we arrived in Tecpán. Just outside of the town limits is the pre-Columbian site of Iximché — which was a thrivingurban space in the early 16th century when the Spanish arrived and remains a popular tourist destination in present-day Guatemala — an excellent place to spend the 'end of the world,' or more accurately, 'an end and a beginning.' Indigenous leaders and spiritual guides had planned ceremonies and political events at the site to mark the event.
"A number of fires had already been started and new ones were being initiated so students were able to see ceremonies from beginning to end and take note of the differences between the larger ceremonies — to which a handful of tourists arrived — and the smaller ones in a different part of the site, which tended to be family-oriented and more personal. By 11 p.m., we were ready to commemorate the

system, the largest common block of time was set to come to 'completion.'
The ceremonies — which in fact marked the end of an era, not the end of the world — included a performance of the Dance of the Moors, which tells the story of the expulsion of the Moors from Spain during the Reconquista, performed today by indigenous groups as a marker of their heritage. (Photo by Timothy J. Smith)
"One of the two main areas in which ceremonies were being held was the stage for a group of more than 100 indigenous and non-indigenous Guatemalans, as well as a few dozen foreigners. An inner circle around one large fire was made up of indigenous spiritual guides, photographers and a few spectators. The spiritual guides took turns offeringprayers in both Kaqchikel Mayan and Spanish, stopping in between to explain to the crowd what the calendar 'cycle end' meant for them — essentially, the beginning of a new count, a new era.
"At the stroke of midnight, the entire group was asked to systematically kneel down in the four cardinal directions while the spiritual guides prayed to ancestors and various elements of the cosmos. The crowd quickly dispersed after midnight.
"The next day, Dec. 21, we returned to the site early in the morning to see the commemoration of a new stela — a large upright stone with hieroglyphic inscriptions — that had been erected in conjunction with the 'new era.'

Editor's note: There are many angles to this story that have been reported. LDS Living has chosen to share the uplifting response of love from a grandfather and has posted the elder's story in his own words in the video below. We understand this video description has created some controversy, and we have added new details to provide context, but we explain our initial editorial decisions here.
Kaydin Abdul Karim Alabbas was at a difficult place in his life. He was supposed to report to the MTC the next day, but he had no desire to serve a mission and had just announced to his family he had no intention to serve. In addition, his family left him in the middle of nowhere, not knowing who to turn to.
That'sElder Alabbas had the chance to teach a man from Argentina who noticed something different about the LDS family he was staying with in Utah. At the end of a powerful discussion, Elder Alabbas's companion asked this young man if he would be baptized.
"He started to cry and the Spirit rushed into the room and he said 'yes,'" Elder Alabbas says in the video. "And we asked him to give the closing prayer and he gave the most heartfelt prayer I've ever heard and I don't think I'll ever forget it. But I remember walking out of the room and I was like, 'Shoot, that means I am going on a mission. This is why I am here.'"
From that moment on, Elder Alabbas knew for himself that his

observations of five women who attended a March gathering at an Indianapolis bar celebrating the end of the legislative session.
The Taft law firm that composed the memo referred CNN's requests for the document, which was printed in The Indianapolis Star , to spokeswomen for the state Senate and House Republicans. The former, Molly Swigart, told CNN last week that neither office had the memo, nor would they be releasing it.

In the memo, one woman claimed Hill rubbed her back in a way that made her uncomfortable, while another said Hill hugged her around the waist, forcing her to reposition herself to get away from him. Three of thewomen said they heard Hill tell women at the bar that if they wanted drinks, they needed to "show a little skin" or "more leg or knees."
The most serious allegation came from a woman who has identified herself as state Rep. Mara Candelaria Reardon. She told House leaders that an intoxicated Hill "put his hands on her back, slid them down to her buttocks, put them under her clothes and 'grabbed a handful of ass,'" says the memo published by The Star.
Hill did it again later, Candelaria Reardon told investigators, according to the memo. On both occasions, Candelaria Reardon said, she told Hill, "Back off."
In an open letter published by The Star , Candelaria Reardon said that on Hill's alleged second pass, he walked up behind her and

right wrist; however, she informed Dr. Cannon she recently noticed the same symptoms
beginning in the left wrist. Ms. Webb requested surgery on the right wrist, and Dr.
Cannon performed a right carpal tunnel release surgery on November 5, 2014. Ms. Webb
testified the surgery relieved her nerve pain, but her symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome
continued. Ms. Webb took FMLA leave from work for approximately two weeks
following surgery.
Ms. Webb received follow-up care from Dr. Cannon through November and
December 2014. She returned on January 15, 2015, andcomplained of continued left-
sided symptoms. Ms. Webb also presented to Dr. Cannon a list of devices and
accommodations she requested to assist her at work. Dr. Cannon opined that once she
recovered from the surgery, she would not need any assistive devices or accommodations
at work. Subsequently, per Ms. Webb's request, Dr. Cannon ordered an EMG on the left
wrist and an ergonomic evaluation of her workstation due to her tendinitis-type
symptoms.
In January 2015, Ms. Webb requested FedEx open an "On the Job Injury (OJI)
claim" because her left hand symptoms increased at work and she "started connecting the
dots that it may be work-related." She reported her OJI claim to her manager, Kenneth
Connally. She also requested an ergonomic review of her workstation. FedEx

Observers say the race between Mr Mnangagwa's Zanu-PF party and Mr Chamisa's MDC Alliance is extremely tight.
Bothmen are among 23 candidates running for president.
Zec has announced some of the results in the parliamentary elections but says it needs time to pull together the figures for the presidential poll from across the country.
A presidential candidate needs more than 50% of the vote to win outright. Otherwise, a run-off election will be held on 8 September.
In a tweet, Mr Mnangagwa expressed confidence about his chances but added that he was "waiting patiently for official results as per the constitution".

Plaintiffs did not file any affidavits or exhibits in opposition. This appeal followed the court's granting of City's summary judgment motion. For the reasons that follow, we affirm the judgment.
The uncontradicted evidence submitted on the summary judgment motion established the following: On June 8, 1960, upon the recommendation of the planning commission, the city council approved lot split LS 60-07. The approval was subject to conditions, including: "[a] joint agreement shall be executed covering the maintenance of this roadway" and "[t]he drainage from the lots and street shall be carried to an approved storm drain or natural water course in such a manneras to prevent damage or nuisance to adjoining properties or erosion of any type."
A grading permit was issued on July 27, 1960. The grading plan submitted with the permit provided for drainage from the finished pad area to the private street. The drainage pattern and the devices to be installed were designed by the subdivider. Surface water flows into the private street by means of gravity or sump pumps located in the private residences. As shown by the final grading plan, the drainage from the lots flows down the street to a catch basin built by the developer, then through a concrete channel also built by the developer, to an existing ditch.

his dorm room in Medina was searched by Saudi law enforcement officials. Following his detention in Medina, Mr. Abu Ali was transported to a Saudi detention facility in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
While at the facility in Riyadh, the defendant, upon interrogation by Saudi officials, allegedly made a number of incriminating statements regarding his involvement with a number of terrorist plots. The Mabahith agreed to a U.S. government request to allow the Federal Bureau of Investigation ("FBI") and the U.S. Secret Service ("Secret Service") to provide questions for the defendant and to observe an interrogation of him through a two-way mirror. On June 15, 2003, FBI officials observed the defendant when he was interrogated yet again by Saudi law enforcement officials and allegedly made more incriminating statements and admissions.

facts pertinent to the Motion to Suppress and the Motion to Dismiss.
1. The Government's Evidence Surrounding the Defendant's Arrest and Detention.
Prior to the suppression hearing, the Court heard seven (7) days of live testimony from several Saudi government officials who were involved in the arrest and detention of Mr. Abu Ali. The witnesses appeared via satellite realtime video and audio transmission from Saudi Arabia to the federal courthouse in Alexandria pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 15 and a protective order. For security reasons, the witnesses were permitted to testify under oath via pseudonyms on a split screen television set up where they could be observed and heard by the defendant, his counsel, and prosecutors in Alexandria, Virginia. The court reporter in Alexandria made a realtime transcriptionof the testimony. Simultaneously, defense counsel, prosecutors, and an Arabic translator were present with the witnesses in Saudi Arabia.
First, the Saudi government officials (hereinafter "Government officials") testified that two compounds in Riyadh were bombed, killing thirty-nine (39) people, including nine (9) Americans. The Government officials investigated this terrorist incident and developed a list of the nineteen (19) "most wanted" individuals alleged to be associated with the bombing and the terrorist group Al-Qaeda. Government officials reported that a detained suspect whom they had questioned identified "Reda" as a member of the Al-Qaeda cell who remained at large. This suspect later identified a photograph of Mr. Abu Ali from a Medina University student photo book. The suspect said that "Reda" was a student at the Islamic University and was an

notice of his arrest from the Saudis on June 8, 2003, and Agent Joycs admitted that she got her information from the Legat's office on June 9, 2003. Her e-mail to headquarters on the morning of June 10, 2003 corroborates when she learned of Mr. Abu Ali's arrest. See Gov't Ex. 4S. In addition, Agent Joycs admitted that she did not observe the June 15, 2003, interrogation. Also, when pressed about whether she gave Miranda warnings to Mr. Abu Ali, she distinguished between an intelligence interview and a criminal investigation interview.
Agent Joycs reported that when the FBI met with the Saudi Brigadier General prior to the June 15, 2003, interrogation, the Brigadier General assured the FBI that Mr. Abu Ali would not walk free and that Mr. Abuspecial agent with the FBI assigned to the Counterterrorism Unit. He was deployed to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in May 2003 to investigate the bombings that occurred on May 12, 2003, in which nine (9) American citizens were killed. He stated that he learned about Mr. Abu Ali's detention on June 14, 2003, and was assigned to observe the Mabahith's interrogation of Mr. Abu Ali on June 15, 2003. To prepare for this interrogation, he prepared (along with Agent Joycs and the staff of the Legat's office) a thirteen (13) question memo (with approximately fifty-six (56) parts and subparts) for the Mabahith to ask Mr. Abu Ali during the interrogation. The Mabahith informed him, through an interpreter, that there were too many questions and they cut the thirteen (13)

with the Mabahith interrogator. Mr. Abu Ali sat in the chair with his back against the chair. At times, he slid down in the chair, he leaned forward, and he sat forward in the chair. Mr. Abu Ali did not appear to be in any discomfort. Agent Posto did not observe a blindfold, handcuffs, or shackles on Mr. Abu Ali when Mr. Abu Ali entered the interrogation room. Mr. Abu Ali did not make any complaints about his confinement that Agent Posto could discern.
Agent Posto stated that the FBI agents did not have any discussions about how to circumvent Mr. Abu Ali's Miranda rights. He stated that this was an intelligence interview rather than a criminal interview. He also stated that it was the State Department's job toJune 14 or 15, he learned from two special agents in the Legat's office that an American, Mr. Abu Ali, had been arrested by the Saudis. Other agents prepared a list of approximately thirteen (13) questions (with approximately fifty-six (56) parts and subparts) that they wanted the Saudis to ask Mr. Abu Ali. Mr. Machalany then translated those questions into Arabic. The Saudis responded that the list of questions was too long, and asked the FBI to submit fewer questions. The FBI then cut the list of questions to six (6), which they gave to the Saudis.
On the night of June 15, 2003, Mr. Machalany was one of three (3) American FBI employees who traveled to a Riyadh prison and observed an interrogation of Mr. Abu Ali by

or pillow, and later he was moved to a third cell with a shower and better accommodations. Based on the medical history and physical exam, Dr. Keller concluded that Mr. Abu Ali suffered from depression and post traumatic stress disorder ("PTSD") as result of torture.
Dr. Keller testified that there are varying degrees of PTSD, and that Mr. Abu Ali suffers from the most severe form. He said that Mr. Abu Ali re-experiences the trauma of his confinement in Saudi Arabia in the Alexandria Detention Center through triggers in his environment, such as when a cell door opens, when he hears guards walking by his cell playing with their handcuffs, or when he hears the screams of a possibly intoxicated prisoner. Dr. Keller said that Mr. Abu Ali exhibitsadmitted that someone with a chance for secondary gain would have more incentive to lie about his injuries during the history and admitted that Mr. Abu Ali had a substantial amount to gain by lying. Dr. Keller admitted that he cares passionately about human rights and works as an advocate for torture victims. He is concerned about allegations that the United States government has abused detainees in the war on terrorism and opposed Attorney General Albert Gonzales's nomination. He lobbied members of Congress against Attorney General Gonzales and accused Mr. Gonzales of supporting the abuse of detainees in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

On cross-examination, Mr. Abu Ali said he does not remember if the surface of his back felt raised or not, but that he remembers it felt sore. He also said that no doctor came to his cell, and that he had to sleep on his stomach for "a couple of weeks" because of the pain in his back.
Several hours later, he was taken to another questioning session. This time, he was moved to the room without a blindfold, but he was still handcuffed and shackled. One interrogator and a guard were in the room. The man said, "Ahmed, you're our brother," and told him no one wanted to hurt him. Mr.Abu Ali testified that he asked the interrogator, "How can you say this after [what you did]?" The man replied, "I didn't do anything. I'm here to help you." Mr. Abu Ali testified that he answered the man's questions for three to four hours, then was taken back to his cell. Nothing was written down during that session. He was given a break in questioning for evening prayers, then returned to his cell. Mr. Abu Ali testified that he felt "defeated" and "humiliated." On cross-examination, he testified that about three or four hours passed between the time he *369 was whipped and when he began cooperating.
On his third day of detention, the same interrogator again questioned Mr. Abu Ali. This time, the questioning included writing down questions and

A multi-agency response to identify risks from old landfills has been launched today by the Ministry for the Environment.
Photo: Kelsey Porter
The project will be led by the ministry and 16 regional councils in collaboration with Local Government New Zealand and the Department of Conservation.
In March, heavy rain washed out a disused landfill near Fox Glacier, scattering rubbish across the riverbed and coastline.
More than 850 volunteers, NZDF staff and DOC workers removed more than 13,000 bags of rubbish.
Associate Minister for the Environment Eugenie Sage said the storm event was a wake-up call.
"It highlighted the importance of knowing where closed landfills are, their vulnerabilities and how to reduce their exposure to natural hazards and potential impacts from a changing climate," she said.

After the UK hit "Every Girl and Boy" and a dance-rock album, You Are My Energy (1988), Spagna moved to Santa Monica, California, and recorded her third album No Way Out (1991). This album featured a song written by Diane Warren ("There's a Love"), and two singles ("Love at First Sight" and "Only Words") which peaked at #5 on the Italian chart. The album was certified Platinum (over 100,000 copies sold).
In 1993, Spagna moved back to Europe, and recorded Matter of Time, featuring the two successful Eurodance singles, "Why Me" (#10 in Italy) and "I Always Dream About You" (#5 in Italy).

State is a glaring exception to the numbering convention,
being located north of I-84. Are there other exceptions?

Another glaring exception is Interstate 238 in California. It's an important,
if short, route in the Bay Area, but at the time it was redesignated an
Interstate, every x80 number had been taken, either by other local freeways,
or by unrelated highways. So, when it was updated to interstate standards,
they just decided to let it keep its old number, even though interstate 38
doesn't even exist.
Since then, Highway 480 (it was never formally adopted as an Interstate) has
been removed, but renumbering would be more trouble than it's worth, so it's
remained I-238.

In an email, Parks Canada said the more than 30-year-old company, which currently runs Ottawa River cruises, beat out two other bids after the department's request for proposals earlier this year.
"Parks Canada is now working with Ottawa Boat Cruises Inc. (Croisières Outaouais) to detail the full package of services that will be offered, with implementation scheduled to start in 2016," the statement said.
"One of the services will be a new tour boat which will begin operations in the 2016 navigation season. Details on other offerings will be announced at a later date once an agreement has been signed."

The winning company would provide "innovative visitor experiences and leading edge services that will maximize the potential of Canada's Rideau Canal in Ottawa," according to the request.
Services would start no later than Friday, May 20, 2016, which is the day before the Victoria Day long weekend.

There was a house band of sorts: an upright bassist and a percussionist who would have looked right at home in a North Beach café, circa 1951, with Kerouac holding forth in one corner and Ferlinghetti in another. Any poet who wanted some cool, beat-style jazz backing had only to say the word, and the jazz cats would offer sensitive, but still way-out-there, musical support. Most of the audience was thirty- or fortysomething, although there were some younger members one kid, sitting way up front, had a hooded sweatshirt with the word "independent" across the back. Folks who wanted to perform wrote their names on small pieces of paper and placed them in a basket; Ken Brown, the MC, would draw names randomly. A woman said sheused to be in a band before she settled down to raise a family; she performed two touching songs on acoustic guitar. One of them was about her first childhood crush. At one point, after she sang the boy's name in the chorus, she stopped momentarily to reassure her husband, sitting in back. Another woman recited a poem about San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury, circa 1967. A woman wearing a beret presented a piece questioning the validity of spending time in cyberspace (a sentiment found in Le Tigre's recent "Get Off the Internet"), prefacing it with: "I was the last of my friends to get a computer. I've had it for a month." As a cold, detached, cynical observer, you could write the evening off as a kind of communal

working in the home — it was about traditional women's work being devalued. She said personal blogs about motherhood and domesticity had helped changed that into something that was celebrated, if on a micro level.
And Jennifer said something that resonated about how her generation of feminists was less comfortable with a wide disconnect between their personal lives and their ideology, such that they were willing to have a more flexible ideology that reflected the realities of their lives.
"We solved some problems but left some problems in our wake," said Debbie.
During the Q&A, I said I'd been an intern at Ms. the summer before their book had appeared, ten years ago. The biggest thing that had changed since then was in fact the explosion of Internet media and communication,a girly form — "Like passing notes in class," she ad-libbed.
For women who had branded a movement that was partially typified by media — riot grrl music, Bust magazine — it was an odd blind spot. It reminded me of covering the magazine industry at a time of profound denial about how the Internet was upending the business and readership model.
Maybe because Debbie edits a magazine that has to constantly be in search of the new, she seemed to understand it best. "Our touchstones are irrelevant," she said at one point. "I never wanted to be one of those people that says, 'Oh, that's not feminist enough.' Or, 'Your music is crappy, ours was better.' But now I am."

2016 US Presidential Election: Trump campaign pins hopes on Monday's address to the Detroit Economic Club - FURTHER UPDATES
New: Detroit speech offers potential risks, rewards for Donald Trump
Republican nominee Donald Trump heads into today’s remarks to the Detroit Economic Club with a lot on the line: A sober, disciplined policy speech could help him finally move past a recent series of self-inflicted wounds that have rattled his chances of being president.
But a speech like those Trump sometimes gives on the campaign trail — hurling invective, railing against Muslims or Mexicans, long on insults and his personal belief in himself but short on policy specifics — before one of the most esteemed groups of business leaders in the country could help doom him.

reserve system as violative of the Sherman Act and New York's antitrust law. The Flood litigation, however, was principally an assault on baseball's long-standing exemption from antitrust laws. In 1922, Justice Holmes, speaking for a unanimous court, ruled that baseball exhibitions were purely state affairs (to which the interstate transportation of players was merely incidental) and were not "trade or commerce in the commonly accepted use of those words" and hence "were not interference with commerce among the States." (Federal Baseball Club v. National League (1922) 259 U.S. 200, 209 [66 L.Ed. 898, 900, 42 S.Ct. 465, 26 A.L.R. 357].)

After the option year expires, the player becomes a "free agent" and may negotiate and contract with teams of another league or with other NFL teams subject to the Rozelle rule.
The Rozelle rule is named after the NFL commissioner, Pete Rozelle. This rule provides if a free agent contracts with another NFL team, the new team must compensate the player's former team with draft choice(s) or other player contracts. If the new and former teams cannot agree as to the compensation, the commissioner arbitrates the matter and determines the compensation.
The tampering rule prohibits an NFL team from negotiating with a player currently under contract with another NFL team. Also, if one team has the exclusive right to negotiate with a player,

necessitated an immediate determination of the most recent motion brought on by Order to Show Cause which was heard on November 7, 1986.
In May, 1986, while unrepresented, Mrs. Mendiola, as a United States citizen, sought an interview to obtain naturalization for her son whose eighteenth birthday occurs on November 15, 1986. She stated that she was advised that the procedure could not be completed before that date. On October 9, 1986, Mendiola filed an Order to Show Cause for a Writ of Mandamus directing the Immigration and Naturalization Service ("the Service") to accept her petition for the naturalization of her son under 8 U.S.C. § 1433(a), which provides:
A child born outside of the United States, one or both of whose parents is at the time of petitioning forthe naturalization of the child, a citizen of the United States, either by birth or naturalization, may be naturalized if under the age of eighteen years....
On October 10, the parties were heard in this court and the Service agreed to ensure that her petition would be accepted either that day or the next working day, which, because of Columbus Day weekend, was October 14. A court order was entered to this effect.
On October 27, Mendiola filed another Order to Show Cause. Between the time that a petition is filed, and the Service holds a preliminary hearing to evaluate the petition, there is normally a waiting period of thirty days. As the petition was filed on October 14, the INS hearing would not take place until November 14, one

Background {#Sec1}
==========
A significant part of the world's population lives in rural areas. There are vast and remote rural areas in Australia, Canada, and the United States, and considerable areas with rural characteristics can be found in European countries such as the United Kingdom, Sweden, Norway, and Finland. Providing health services to people residing in rural areas is associated with several challenges, such as long traveling distances, difficulties in recruiting staff, and low availability of specialized care. The literature on rural health care points to coordination, cooperation between health units, and adaption to local needs as key strategies to overcome these challenges. Typically, such measures require public investment and planning \[[@CR1]--[@CR4]\]. Thus, health services provision to populations in rural areas can be seen as a case of *market failure*; investmentReform when it comes to private establishment and implications for resource distribution in rural areas. The main research question asked in the article is how health authorities in rurally located counties have responded to the Primary Care Choice Reform and which, if any, measures have been taken by them in order to uphold the goal of equity in access to care within their areas. In order to answer the question, three case studies of the implementation of the Primary Care Choice Reform in rural counties were conducted. An important condition of the case study setting is that local health authorities in Sweden, the county councils, enjoy a substantive degree of autonomy in organizing the provision of services as long as national legislation is honored, a fact that provided

the facilities:""About half of the public deficit of 30 million in 2011 was caused by remaining costs for facilities and personnel (in the closed facilities) .... \...So of course, this jerkiness is costly." (The political representative for the opposition, Västernorrland)"
Both politicians interviewed in Västernorrland noted that there is no real choice for patients in rural parts of the county. Most rural areas have too few inhabitants to support more than one provider. The politician in opposition concluded: "if the private providers ... don't see a market, we don't argue." As in the other cases, the politicians interviewed in Västernorrland pointed out that the biggest challenge for providing access to health care in the county's rural areas is recruiting medical doctors. Västernorrland county has to rely on temporary medicalwhich were found in all three cases, a few other strategies to protect health centers in rural areas were observed in the case studies, such as allowing them to run at a loss in order to prevent them from closing down; placing some health services offered at health centers in rural areas, such as inpatient care, outside the regulatory framework set by the accreditation rules, thereby making it possible to provide extra funding for them; and, cooperating with other public authorities in rural areas by co-financing certain activities such as district nurses and ambulance care. Such strategies can be seen as violating the principles of the Primary Care Choice Reform in that they offset principles of fair and open competition and equal treatment of all care providers. Taken

was the moving party in going to Mobile, and she did not intend to return to prostitution
4
Eddie Eisenberg is thirty-three years old. He has never before been in any trouble with the law. He has been an automobile salesman since he was eighteen. There is no evidence that he was engaged in the business of prostitution. He is a man of some ability in his line, for at the time of the trial he was making from $250 to $350 a week as general manager of a used car lot in Chicago. He married Jean in Miami, Florida, in July, 1957. At the time, he was managing "a new car place". She was a model. March 29, 1958 the Eisenbergs had a daughter. Eddie worked in Miamiuntil the child was born, then worked out of Fort Walton Beach, near Valparaiso, where Jean's mother lived. He gave up his Miami job to "keep [the] family intact", since Jean wanted to stay in her home town. In August Eddie went to Mobile. He had been recommended as an automobile salesman to Big Standard Motors in Mobile and was given the job immediately. He supported his family in Florida until Jean moved to Mobile in October, leaving the baby with her mother
On November 10, 1958 Eisenberg and his employer severed relations over a dispute about commissions. About that time or a little before the Eisenbergs had met Sonny Hendrix and Anita Hendrix, a prostitute. Jean had never worked as a prostitute. On several occasions Sonny Hendrix and

good resolutions, if any, Jean went back to work for Russo, presumably as prostitute.
The Eisenbergs drank heavily and quarreled heatedly. The Government implies that the quarrels were over his gambling away her earnings; the defendant stated that it was because he was "fed up" with his wife's activities. He said that he "had had it, this was it, [he] didn't want it anymore". The night before his arrest, he packed his bags with intention of leaving his wife. His wife's customary cab driver called at the usual hour of two in the morning and informed him that his wife wanted to see him at the Mystic Lounge. After a few harsh words between them, and either slaps or blows from Eddie that may have caused her to fall,they returned to their apartment to "iron things out". At about 3:30 A.M. Jean suggested going back to the Mystic Lounge to have "a couple of drinks for good luck" since Eddie was leaving. They did. According to her husband, "she went to work drinking". About 5 A.M. Jean disappeared. His first thought was that she intended to "grab the baby and go back to her mother"; so, Eddie went to the baby's foster home and asked if his wife had been there. The woman who owns the home said that his wife had called. He decided to wait. The police called him from the Mystic Lounge. He called back and asked for his wife. His wife answered the telephone and, allegedly, stated that she was afraid that

Accused NY Bomb Plotter Has Court Appearance
Receive the latest local updates in your inbox
Texas student Khalid Ali-M Aldawsari was arrested on suspicion of plotting a terror attack. His target list included New York City.
An accused terrorist who had eyed New York City as a possible target for a bomb attack appeared in federal court Friday in Texas, and his lawyer said he would plead not guilty.
Khalid Ali-M Aldawsari, who was attending college near Lubbock, Texas, was arrested on attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction.
Rod Hobson, his attorney, said in a statement that the "eyes of the world are on this case" and how Aldawsari is treated.
"This is not 'Alice in Wonderland,' where the Queen said 'First the punishment then the trial,'" Hobson's statement said. "This isAmerica, where everyone is entitled to the presumption of innocence, due process, effective representation of counsel and a fair trial."
A college student from Saudi Arabia who studied chemical engineering in Texas bought explosive chemicals online as part of a plan to hide bomb materials inside dolls and baby carriages to blow up spots in New York City, U.S. dams and nuclear plants or the Dallas home of former President George W. Bush, the Justice Department said Thursday.
(Published Thursday, Feb. 24, 2011)
Judge Nancy Koenig asked the 20-year-old Aldawsari if he understands the charges against him and ordered him to remain in custody until a March 11 detention hearing.
Prosecutors allege Aldawsari had secretly planned for years to launch a terrorist attack. He described in his journal plans to travel to

appointed one woman to the board, which it called a "one and done" approach.
These include Domino's Pizza and a number of investment trusts.
Companies with more than 40% female board membership include Standard Life Aberdeen, Schroders and Royal Bank of Scotland, while those with 25% or fewer women on the board include National Grid and Rio Tinto.
Chris Cummings, chief executive of the Investment Association, said: "Investors have been consistent in their demands for greater diversity.
"It's not just a nice to have. The research is clear: firms with diverse boards and management teams make better decisions, drive innovation and outperform their less diverse peers."
Industry body the CBI said businesses were "building on last year's progress and continuing to increase diversity in the boardroom".
'Overcoming barriers'
Carolyn Fairbairn, CBI director general, said: "Thebenefits of a diverse boardroom have been proven many times, from improved decision making to increased profits. If all male boards are to become a thing of the past, firms must not take their foot off the pedal."
However, she added that firms were "making less progress on the executive pipeline".
"We are still seeing too few women in senior leadership positions, whether as chief executive or running divisions.
"Heading into 2020, all firms should ensure they have diverse shortlists and that they're doing everything possible to support people from all walks of life in their careers, from ground floor to boardroom."

as to the third, fourth, fifth, eighth, ninth and tenth claims, but granted plaintiff an opportunity to file an amended complaint as to these claims.
Defendant filed objections to the Report and Recommendation on March 15, 1993. Specifically, defendant objected to Magistrate Judge Heckman's recommendation to deny defendant's motion as to the second and seventh claims. Defendant also objected to the Magistrate Judge's recommendation to allow plaintiff to amend his complaint.
On April 27, 1993, the Court requested the attorneys to discuss possible settlement of the action with their clients and report back on May 13, 1993. The Court also scheduled oral argument for that date on defendant's objections. Defense counsel failed to appear on May 13, 1993 and the Court rescheduled oral argument for May 26, 1993. Defense counselforth ten causes of action stemming from two suggestions submitted by Plaintiff in June and October of 1984 under the "Employee Suggestion Plan" implemented by Defendant General Motors Corporation. The first suggestion, No. H0353, involved increasing the headstock speed on axle shaft grinders by changing the drive belts on internal pulleys in the grinding machine, thereby reducing surface burn on the grinders and soft bearings on the axle shafts (see Item 44, Exh. A). The second suggestion, No. H0538, involved substituting regular drill points with radial-tipped "Racon" drill points so as to eliminate "burrs" or hinged metal fragments (also called "flying saucers") from the drill holes in axle shaft tubes.
The first five claims relate to Plaintiff's suggestion No. H0353. The first claim is for breach of contract and

made a right turn and proceeded in a southerly direction for a distance of approximately 1 1/2 blocks before the officer stopped it with the red light of his patrol car.
The defendant had violated no traffic laws. The car had a Washington license plate and was not known to the officer. There was nothing unusual about the manner in which the car was operated. However, at the suppression hearing, Officer White stated that defendant "appeared to be confused" and he testified further as follows:
"I just felt that she wasn't familiar with the city, and there might be something wrong this late and unusual hour of the morning: strange car, Washington license, patrolling the streets, the back streets, off of the main street."
Officer White testified that after stopping defendant'svehicle, he asked for her operator's license (while conversing through the car window which she had rolled down) and he could smell "a moderate odor of alcohol on her breath and a moderate odor of marihuana in the vehicle" (later described as "burnt marihuana"). Within the vehicle he also noticed four bottles in a paper sack and the odor of marihuana coming from the sack which defendant handed to him. Examination of the sack revealed "green vegetable material" that appeared to be marihuana.
The officer then asked defendant if he could look in the trunk and she said "yes" and opened the trunk which contained two full bottles of beer and a packsack with a 35 millimeter tin box which contained white pills and a pink pill, subsequently identified

Michael Dudeck WITCHDOCTOR’s RELIGION project involves the invention of a queer religion and prehistory which re-imagines the nature of human origins. Amygdala, the second installment of a ten-year cycle (now entering it’s fourth year) dealt with the rituals of a fictive sect of a female warrior cult within the mythology. Featuring 13 performers who enact a procession of soldier/priestesses, and Dudeck himself performing as the hermaphroditic religious leader recitingthe trial judge for determination on that transcript with the subsequent judgment to "have full force and effect as if said cause was tried again before the court in its entirety." Accordingly, on this appeal by plaintiffs from the judgment thereafter entered in favor of defendants, the case comes to us as a jury-waived, court-tried action.
"Around the last of November" 1962, Dub Crutcher, a licensed real estate broker in Stoddard County, Missouri, was seeking to locate a purchaser for a 300-acre farm in Scott County owned by Alton Evans (hereinafter referred to as the Evans farm). Evans had told Crutcher that "the Moore boys [defendants] were interested" in the Evans farm but that they wanted him (Evans) "to take in" the spillway farm which he was unwilling to

spouse is personally liable for community debts. There a wife, while driving a community automobile on community business committed a tort against a third person and thereafter died before suit was filed against the community. The court held the husband liable but limited recovery to the extent of his interest in the community at the time of its dissolution. The husband's liability was premised upon his statutory right to control community property and was held liable under the family purpose doctrine enunciated in Benton v. Regeser, 20 Ariz. 273, 179 P. 966 (1919), and therefore the case would appear inapplicable.
Union Bank also relies on Ellsworth v. Ellsworth, 5 Ariz. App. 89, 423 P.2d 364 (1967), where we held that the wife was personally liable after dissolution of theAn elderly Pakistani immigrant is on trial in Brooklyn for murdering his wife after she served him a meatless dinner instead of the goat meat he requested. Prosecutors say Noor Hussein, 75, became violently enraged at his wife over the vegetarian entree and beat her to death in their Brooklyn home.
According to court papers obtained by the Post, Hussein "asked [his wife] to cook goat and [his wife] said she made something else. The conversation got louder and [his wife] disrespected defendant by cursing at defendant and saying motherf-ker and that the defendant took a wooden stick and hit her with it on her arm and mouth."
Hussein allegedly beat his wife to death with a wooden stick they found on the street and used to stir their laundry.

Juan Rodriguez, cluster manager at Union Park, testified that the Union Park supervisor, Rich Boykin, filed an incident report identifying plaintiff as being involved in the August 2,1989, incident. Rodriguez testified that plaintiff reported for work on August 3, 1989. About 2 p.m., Boykin informed Rodriguez that he thought plaintiff was "under the influence." Rodriguez stated that he thought Boykin said plaintiff was talking slow and felt "like he wasn't there when he was talking to him."
Following his conversation with Boykin, Rodriguez called the internal investigations unit. Rodriguez stated that, at this point, he did not know whether hename of the person with whom he spoke, but stated that it was the man from the administration office and not Rodriguez. The man informed plaintiff that he was being asked to take the test because of the August 2 incident and told plaintiff that any illegal substance would show up in his urine. Plaintiff asked the man whether he looked drunk, whether anyone saw him taking anything, or whether he looked "high." According to plaintiff, the man replied "no" and stated "they say they seen [sic] you in the building on the weekend."
Plaintiff informed the man that it was time for him to leave for the day and that he had already made plans. Plaintiff was informed that he would be paid for the time it took

2. That evening Mockler and other agents went to the building in which apartment 5M was located, hoping to locate Disney Mendez (whose name may be "Daisey"), a daughter of Sanchez, for whom a state arrest warrant was outstanding. Upon arriving at 164-20 Highland Avenue, the agents learned from the building superintendent and his wife that a woman named "Pagan," whom the superintendent identified from a photograph as Sanchez, lived in apartment 5M with her daughter. The description of the daughter matched that of Disney Mendez, and the name on the rent receipt found in Sanchez's handbag was "Lucelli Pagan." From the doorman, the agents learned that the daughter had returned to the apartment recently.

Theagents then went to apartment 5M. They knocked on the door, and announced in Spanish and English that they were the police. No one responded, but the agents heard people moving inside, as well as the sound of a television set. The agents then used one of the keys found in Sanchez's handbag to open the door and entered the apartment.

Two of the officers found a locked bathroom door. They repeatedly banged on it and shouted, "Police, police-open up the door." A female responded that she was using the facility. A woman soon emerged from the bathroom after the toilet had been flushed. The agents escorted her to the living room, where a man found hiding in a second bathroom already

that transformed the agents' reasonable suspicion into probable cause was Martinez's own manifestation of guilt evidenced by his flight from the agents back into the apartment when the agents approached him to talk to him. That event took place in the hallway outside apartment 7F, and probable cause to arrest Martinez existed as soon as he turned and fled.

But in spite of all difficulties the colony grew, the settlements

of the James from Chesapeake Bay to what is now Richmond. Had the
Indians been unfriendly, the colony could not have stretched out
in this fashion without great danger to the settlers. But for eight

obtained by defendant against plaintiffs. Defendant appeals the judgment while plaintiffs appeal pretrial rulings which excluded certain evidence and limited their claims.
FACTS
Travis Oliver is a successful architect, builder and investor. During the mid-1980's, Mr. Oliver participated with two other investors in the development of Morrison Place Apartments in Monroe, Louisiana. The apartments consist of a multi-building complex located in an area identified as a flood hazard zone under federal guidelines. Initial funding for the project was arranged by one of Mr. Oliver's partners through Deposit Savings Bank of Ouachita Parish ("Deposit Savings"). The mortgage agreement with Deposit Savings included a provision for escrow payments with proceeds used to purchase insurance for the apartments. These funds were used to purchase flood hazard insurance.
Financial difficulties eventually led Mr. Oliver's partnersWhen neither plaintiff nor defendant paid the premiums due on this existing policy at renewal, the policy lapsed.
*1319 In July 1988, defendant purchased flood insurance coverage for the apartments. In accordance with instructions from the insurance agent, the policy was purchased in plaintiffs' names and listed plaintiffs as the premium payors. The premiums, however, were paid by Central Bank. Plaintiffs were not notified by the bank that the insurance had been purchased nor were they provided with a copy of the policy.
The Olivers began to experience financial difficulties and, with the aid of counsel, renegotiated the terms of their debt at Central Bank in March 1989. The terms of the mortgage documents were not changed, leaving the ultimate responsibility for insuring the property with the Olivers. At the

had been officially sanctioned by the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences in 1954, in ex parte Scherer. Apparently, however, most of the public, particularly doctors, were unaware of the practice.
That all changed after a lawsuit was filed in 1993 by a surgeon against a group of doctors alleging infringement of a patent claiming a method of performing cataract surgery. Pallin v. Singer, 36 USPQ2d 1050 (D. Vt. 1995). As described in a leading patent law casebook by Professors Merges and Duffy, "[t]he litigation caused a shudder in the medical community, if only because it called attention to the PTO's practice of allowing surgical patents."
After news of the lawsuit became known, major mainstream media outlets such as the Wall Street Journal, New York Times and Los Angeles Timeshave a deeper feel of the significant events that occurred during Jesus’ life. Statues illustrating the mysteries of the Holy Rosary and the stations of the way of the cross are also here, making it an ideal place to visit this Lenten season.

use the "'Brighton white' residential architecture as a reference point," he said.
London-based Wilkinson Eyre Architects served as the concept architects for the development. Its buildings, ranging in height from 2 to 40 stories, will be arranged around a large public promenade. A 40-story tower will mark the eastern portal to Brighton with a "slender, sinuous, and distinct composition," Kimball added.
The entire development "is going to be built on an arrangement of foundations that are going to be constructed in the marine environment," says Nick Gillespie, CEng, a director at the London office of global engineering firm Meinhardt and the project's structural engineering director.
The first phase includes two mixed-use buildings and a promenade built atop a submerged parking garage. Slender steel tubular piles reaching depths of 13 to 14m will support the parking garage and buildings. Meinhardt
The first phase of this development is currently under way. Dubbed the "West Quay development," this £41.5-million (U.S.$7.2 billion) phase includes the submerged parking garage and the two towers and promenade that will be located atop it. Acanthus Architects LW redesigned the car park, which had ramped slabs, to include a level slab arrangement and optimized vehicular circulation routes, according to Kimbell. "The car park box also contains a double-height energy center which will ultimately provide power and heating for the entire development," Kimbell noted.
To build the parking garage, a three-sided sheet pile cofferdam was constructed and nestled against the development's namesake—the existing West Quay within the marina's outer harbor. Initially the parking garage design called for a four-sided cofferdam,

Jerusalem (CNN) Former Israeli Minister of Energy Gonen Segev will serve 11 years in prison as part of a plea deal over spying for Iran, the country's Ministry of Justice said in a statement Wednesday morning.
The sentence comes as Segev pleaded guilty to charges of serious espionage and passing information to an enemy.
The disgraced former doctor was recruited in 2012 by Iran's embassy in Nigeria, the Israel Security Agency (ISA) said at the time of Segev's arrest last summer.
He had relocated to Africa's most populous nation after serving time in an Israeli prison for a 2006 drug smuggling conviction. Segev had been found guilty of attempting to bring 25,000 Ecstasy pills into Israel from the Netherlands.
According to the ISA, Segev met twice with Iranian operatives, knowing they were

the front bedroom door was closed and locked from the inside, arrest papers state. When officers asked a woman upstairs who was in the room, she said she didn't know, court papers state.
Arrest papers state police announced their presence and ordered the person behind the locked door to unlock it and come out, but received no response, so they kicked open the door to ensure the scene was safe and no one else needed medical attention. Inside the room officers found Catala, with his back facing them, lying in a bed.
Again an officer announced his presence and instructed Catala to show his hands, court papers state. Catala then turned, looked at the officer and "began to reach into the covers very quickly as if he was attempting toretrieve an item," court papers state. An officer again ordered the man to stop and show his hands, which he refused, police wrote. Catala attempted to reach under his pillow and at that time, the officer reached for Catala's left arm, court papers state.
"While reaching for the defendant's arm (Catala) then stood up and attempted to throw a punch, with closed fists, at this officers [sic]," court papers state.
He was taken to the ground and told to stop resisting and show his hands, but remained combative and attempted to hit two officers with his fists and legs, police state in the arrest papers.

Space nerds have taken trolling Trump into the stratosphere.
On Wednesday, the Autonomous Space Agency Network, amateurs who promote DIY space exploration, revealed a little project it was working on. It's called "The First Protest in Space," and it involved sending an insulting Trump tweet into orbit on a weather balloon.
As Motherboard reported, the stunt was inspired by something the late Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell said regarding politics.
"From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty," said Mitchell, who was the sixth person to walk on the moon. "You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, 'Look at that, you son of a bitch.'"
So naturally, when you've got a quoteand Plaintiff was taken to Defendant St.
Joseph's Hospital, Inc. (“St. Joseph's”).
According to Plaintiff, St. Joseph's involuntarily
committed her under the Hal S. Marchman Alcohol and Other
Drug Services Act, Florida Statutes § 397.301 et
seq. (“Marchman Act”), despite the fact that
she did not qualify for commitment under the Marchman
Act.[1]

was transferred from St. Joseph's to a facility run by
Defendant Agency for Community Treatment Services, Inc.

Plaintiff to determine whether she met the Marchman Act
criteria. While there, Plaintiff contends that she was denied
communication with her attorney, was illegally drugged, and
was imprisoned against her will.

drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility. Gracepoint never

with Valium, and was imprisoned against her will.
At some
point on Sunday, Plaintiff's attorney contacted
Gracepoint to insist that Plaintiff be released. Gracepoint
called its director, Defendant Pamela Troutman, and Troutman
refused to speak to Plaintiff's attorney or to release
Plaintiff. Again, on Monday at 7:00 p.m., Plaintiff's
attorney returned to Gracepoint, and Troutman still refused
to let Plaintiff's attorney speak with Plaintiff.
Plaintiff was not released until she had been held a full 72
hours.
On May
3, 2019, Plaintiff filed this lawsuit against Defendants, in
which she asserts 14 claims. She asserts separate § 1983
claims, false imprisonment claims, and assault and battery
claims against Troutman, St. Joseph's, ACTS, and
Gracepoint. She also asserts a civil conspiracy claim against
Defendants, alleging that they conspired to violate her
constitutional rights and to falsely imprison her. Finally,
she challenges the constitutionality of the Marchman Act. In
response,The Supreme Court was on Wednesday told that the invasion of citizens' right to privacy since 2009 can't be saved and validated by a 2016 law.
The Supreme Court was on Wednesday told that the invasion of citizens' right to privacy -- by collecting their biometric data under Aadhaar scheme through an executive order since 2009 -- can't be saved and validated by a 2016 law.

Instead, Monograph is a very large, 13" x 18" hardcover, in which a great number of images relating to Ware's career are reproduced at a generous size, while a physically tiny but very extensive running text wriggles its way into available crevices of white space, forming a (basically) chronological account of Chris Ware's life and career. Some of the images depict familiar published works in pre-publication form, blue pencils and white gouache caught in lurid cohabitation with ink, while others present personal photographs, notes, sketchbook pages, or works otherwise not widely accessible in publication. Roughly half a dozen times throughout, a smaller multi-page printed work is pasted into the larger book for in-depth perusal: the long-out-of-print 'Jimmy on an island' story as seen in The ACME Novelty Libraryby the presentation of that vast pamphlet. The method by which Ware applied a fancy and outmoded language of gaiety to bitter scenarios went beyond direct parody; there was a great deal of contextual work done to set the artifice of Ware's make-believe ACME Novelty Company (the organization ostensibly 'behind' his comics) against what I readily understood to be wildly uncommercial and very personal comics. This was not simple irony to me. This was a comic book that seemed to evoke the very history of printed entertainment, to reveal it, systemically, as first a means of forestalling the signal of human pain, and then as a means of enunciating that pain. A hellish memory palace.
When I read it, comics were in shambles. Distribution had mostly collapsed and many
