[wins] earns the right to get to the Grand Final.
"There's no doubt in my mind there's another effort in us, and that wasn't our Grand Final last night."
MAGPIE MAGIC Full match coverage and stats
High-flying intercept defender Jeremy Howe left the field in the third term with an ankle injury suffered during a run-down tackle from Tigers speedster Daniel Rioli. He returned late in the match but was hampered.
"I've seen him (Howe) in [the club] today, he seems all right," Pendlebury said.
"Prelims are pretty brutal games of football and everyone cops a knock, but he came back on and played an important role in those last 10 minutes."
The Collingwood skipper was full of praise for Richmond counterpart Trent Cotchin and his team, revealing the Tigers players offered support immediatelyat a high rate of speed. Palomino died at the scene.
The teen's family and friends are grieving over his death -- and demanding justice. "Not even a two-minute drive. He never made it home," Nancy Sanchez said. "And we hope and expect that the law gets tougher on these people who kill innocent people."
Olivos-Gutierrez faces the following charges:
-- Murder in the first degree extreme indifference
-- Vehicular homicide (DUI)
-- Vehicular homicide (reckless)
-- Driving while habitual traffic offender (DUI)
-- Driving while habitual traffic offender (reckless)
-- Driving under the influence of alcohol, drugs or both
-- Drove with excessive alcohol
-- Reckless driving
-- Drove vehicle other than vehicle equipped with interlock
The suspect was still in the hospital under police guard Tuesday recovering from injuries he received in the crash.

and more than 100 miles from its headquarters in Gainesville, and but for the long distance, Rhea would have attended the meeting. The trial court entered summary judgment in favor of the ACSB. See id. at 1384. On appeal, we recognized that the relevant "public" in question were members of the community in Alachua County, not Orange County: specifically, those who would be affected by the ACSB's official actions. Whether the Orlando workshop was sufficiently "open to the public" depended on whether Alachua County residents were afforded a "reasonable opportunity" to attend the meeting. We concluded that the relevant public's interest in having a reasonable opportunity to attend the ACSB's workshop had to be weighed against the ACSB's need to hold a workshop at a site well beyondStatutes (2006), states "[t]he minutes of a meeting of any such board or commission of any such state agency or authority shall be promptly recorded, and such records shall be open to public inspection." Moreover, our circuit courts should "enforce the purposes of this section upon application by any citizen of this state." Id. The City held a meeting on May 15, 2006, to approve the Minutes. Up through that meeting, the City's high-level employees informed appellants the City would not produce a copy of the Minutes until approval at the next meeting. As may be inferred from the foregoing "public records" analysis, the City violated both the language and the purpose of section 286.011(2) by denying public access to its Minutes until after approval, or, stated flatly,

Emerson-Elliott, on the other hand, ticks all the boxes. Like Bond, he was an officer with the Royal Naval Reserve. Like Bond, he worked for MI6 - before, during and after the war. Like Bond, he spoke several languages fluently. Then there's his friendship with Fleming. Both men were recruited by MI6 around the same time and trained together in Scotland. They were colleagues before, during and after the war." But Silver never had the opportunity of asking Emerson-Elliott about Fleming or Bond because it was only after Emerson-Elliott died in 1997 that she discovered what she thinks is the most important clue. "Like Bond, Denis had a British secret service number," she says. "Like Bond, it was 007. Denis's number was BB 007. BB stands for BritishBureau, a prefix assigned to secret agents. I knew this because I had investigated two other British agents who had joined special operations in Australia. Their numbers were BB 187 and BB 233, which shows Denis had been recruited early." So who was Denis Emerson-Elliott? And what did he do as a spy? For a start, Denis Emerson-Elliott wasn't his real name. "My father was born in London in 1905 as Leonard Emerson," says his son, Derek, a retired Canberra barrister who is co-author (with Silver) of In the Mouth of the Tiger, a novel based on his father's dramatic life, published this week. "Yet according to his British passport, he was born in Somerset three years later as Leslie Denis Elliott. That was the name he used

when he went out to India and Malaya in the 1920s after he'd become involved with MI6. I presume it was changed for operational reasons. Around 1937 he added his real surname. Thereafter his passport listed him as Leslie Denis Emerson-Elliott."
That was his name when he first arrived in Australia from Malaya, in 1942, after the fall of Singapore to the Japanese. He'd escaped - with his wife and two children (including Derek, then aged two) - on the Empire Star, one of the last ships to leave. For the rest of the war, Emerson-Elliott was personal assistant to the Australian director of naval intelligence, R.B.M. Long. Long was MI6 Head of Station in Australia, and Emerson-Elliott's position was another MI6 appointment. That put him in regular contactagain with Fleming, who had the same position in London. In 1948, the family returned to Malaya, where Emerson-Elliott worked for MI6 during the Malayan Emergency. Eventually the family moved back to Australia, settling in Perth in 1955 before moving to Canberra in 1964. But son Derek had no idea his father had been a spy until the family was approached by another military historian, Barbara Poniewierski, whose book on Australian naval intelligence during World War II was published in 1990. "Pop kept his intelligence work secret from the family," says Derek, "but a few months before he died he did talk to me about how sad he was to have had to do 'terrible things'. He left his papers with me, with strict instructions about what could

and couldn't be revealed." Did he ever talk about Fleming? Or Bond? "He didn't tell us about Fleming's intelligence role, only that he knew him as a friend. To me, Fleming was just another friend of my parents; he wasn't famous then. "After the war, we lived at Almer Manor in Dorset, which was part of the Drax estate. Admiral Reginald Drax had worked for Naval Intelligence and was a friend of both Fleming and my father. Fleming borrowed his name for the arch-villain Hugo Drax in Moonraker."
Derek says his father was "ashamed he had to lie, deceive and betray on a daily basis, and was deeply saddened by some of the things he had done. One incident that troubled him badly was that he had to shoota Japanese double agent, a Dutch-Eurasian, on an island to Australia's north. Naval Intelligence were reading the Japanese naval code and became aware the man was working with the Japanese. My father was given the instruction to 'bump him off quietly'. " He did. "My father also felt responsible for the death of an NKVD officer, Lieutenant Ivan Skripkin, who worked for Russian intelligence and tried to defect around 1947. Pop felt he had betrayed Skripkin, who was executed by the Russians." A secret agent with a conscience? Doesn't sound much like Bond. "Bond was fictional," says Derek. "Nobody but a fictional character could possibly smile his way through the deceit, treachery and mayhem Bond encounters. In real life, it certainly affected my father. "He ended his life

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently carried out 680 arrests of undocumented immigrants, 75 percent of whom have been accused of committing violent crimes, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
The arrests have sparked outrage, but Homeland Security said these were routine searches.
Fox News senior judicial analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano was a guest on "Fox & Friends" Tuesday to discuss the recent arrests.
"This is what Donald Trump said he was going to do," the judge said.

story was the beginning of Doctor Who getting a reputation of being too horrific for children. Also, it's the best classic story featuring the Autons, the plastic dummies that come to life — their original adventure has some iconic moments, but also a lot of clunkiness. Oh, and the African strongman is back, this time as a circus strongman.
The Time Warrior (1974)
We're skipping over some beloved stories here, including "The Three Doctors," the story which brings back the first two stars of the show. But this is one of the most fun Jon Pertwee stories — and it features the debut of the Sontarans, those cloned warrior bastards, and Sarah Jane Smith, arguably the greatest companion from the classic series. A Sontaran warrior named Lynx crash-lands in medievalEngland, and needs to repair his spaceship. So he buys off a local warlord by offering him advanced weapons, and also travels forward in time to kidnap present-day scientists. It's a classic example of the "interfering with history" story that O.G. Doctor Who did a fair bit, and also a great taste of writer Robert Holmes indulging his taste for comedy. (Along those lines, there's also "Carnival of Monsters," from a year earlier.) The banter between the super-advanced alien warrior and the medieval fighter is pretty great, and throwing the show's first "feminist" companion into the Middle Ages for her first story yields some great comic dividends.

is one of the show's great scenes, and then later the Doctor pauses to weigh the morality of wiping out the Daleks before they even have a chance to exist. Rumor has it Tom Baker and Davros actor Michael Wisher rewrote all of Davros' dialogue in iambic pentameter, so it would sound more Shakespearean.
Pyramids of Mars (1975)
This is just a lovely, solid adventure story, where the Doctor and Sarah Jane are stuck in 1911 with lethal Egyptian mummies, and an Egyptian god (who's actually an alien) is trying to escape his entombment. There's plenty of goodness in here, including the then-standard trope of the character who is no longer human. But mostly, it's great because the Doctor feels completely outmatched from the start of the story. And writerRobert Holmes shows how to keep a 90-minute Doctor Who story interesting, without letting the pace slack: the Doctor comes up with three separate plans to stop the evil Sutekh, all of which fail horribly. (Instead of the Doctor simply running around or getting captured over and over again, and then solving the problem in the final episode, as in a lot of other stories.) Also, this is Sarah Jane at her absolute best — according to the DVD commentary, Elisabeth Sladen worked with the director to make Sarah Jane more proactive and smarter in this one, even stealing some of the Doctor's thunder.
The Deadly Assassin (1976)
After the Doctor finally visited his own home planet Gallifrey in 1969's "The War Games," he went back several times — but

There are thousands of scholarly articles discussing pattern recognition, the chunking mechanism, the template theory.
The nature of chess is debatable. Some say chess is just a game. For others it is sport, or even an art. Because of the systematic way it is studied it is also considered science. If chess can be (partially) regarded as science as well (Botvinik was of this view, he was the pillar of "scientific chess" and contributed heavily to the development of chess software), then chess must have its basic paradigm as all sciences do.
This means definition of some basic concepts laying the foundation for all further research in the field. Before the emergence of its paradigm, a science is still considered immature, in its prehistory. It can develop any further onlyFirst Hour published in Shakhmatny Listok in 1929. The first excerpt is about what one of the greatest chess thinkers sees as a fundamental problem in early teaching (something chess educators and thinkers have failed to see for ninety years now).
Then take a look at how Nimzo starts teaching chess to the beginner. The key word below is in italic.
Chess teachers of the world, that's right, Alekhine, Keres, Euwe and Nimzovich tell us without a trace of doubt, it is functional relationships that come first! The concept of Force and how Force is exchanged between chess pieces through connections they establish constitutes the basic chess paradigm that should be adopted by all chess practitioners.

minutes long. Other Internet users can access and watch these videos free of charge. The claimant, the Württembergischer Fußballverband e.V. (the football association of Württemberg), which organises the football games, is of the view that it should have the exclusive commercial exploitation rights in relation to the games. As such, it asked the defendant to cease publication of the video clips and based its claim on 'misappropriation' ("unzulässige Leistungsübernahme"), anti-competitive obstruction and an unlawful interference with its right to an established and operative business ("Recht am eingerichteten und ausgeübten Gewerbebetrieb"). The Regional Court of Stuttgart (Landgericht Stuttgart) decided in favour of the claimant. On appeal, the Higher Regional Court (Oberlandesgericht Stuttgart) agreed but allowed a further appeal to the Bundesgerichtshof, Germany's highest court in civil matters.
The Bundesgerichtshof inturn denied an exclusive exploitation right of the football association of Württemberg and dismissed the claimant's case. The Bundesgerichtshof disagreed with the Higher Regional Court in some points and held that the publication of the video clips could not be considered as an unfair imitation of someone else's protected work (geschütztes Leistungsergebnis) in the sense of § 4 No. 9 letter b UWG (German Act of Unfair Competition). The court stressed that the claimant's work in the form of organising and executing football games also did not require this type of protection. The judges took the view that claimant could adequately ascertain its commercial exploitation of the football games held by its member clubs through prohibiting under its house rules (Hausrecht) that visitors make video recording of such

The Badger effect
One of the most innovative coaches in the early 1980s was "Badger" Bob Johnson, the first U.S. college coach to land an NHL job. Johnson brought a distinctly different philosophy to the NHL: Instead of teaching the game from the point of fear, he taught it from the point of pride.
It's a lesson Tortorella says he belatedly learned in his own career.
"It's a constant battle of mine," Tortorella said, "because I'm trying to appeal to a player's pride – of being the best he can be as an individual and the best he can be within the context of the team. I still believe that. I still tell my guys: 'You're going to be pushed.Deutschland Cup and was Luke Richardson's assistant at the Spengler Cup, international events where Canada competed with makeshift teams. And yet, getting the same quality of video support King was accustomed to as an NHL assistant was no problem.
"The technology is so advanced and so portable – as long as you've got a high-quality video guy, you can use it anywhere in the world," King said. "It's an easy set-up and easy to do."
Bowman agrees.

Few shows have used silence and shots of the sky and sea more effectively; you can actually feel the narrative breathing.
The narration that often opens and closes most episodes is never overwrought and often poetic, and the show's directors somehow manage to give humdrum Riverside, California, and the sleek black towers of Abaddonn Industries the qualities of a dream -- or a nightmare. Way down in Abaddonn's basement, Dougie (Timm Sharp) presides over a highly suspect worker-surveillance system, one designed to replace human beings with algorithms. That sleek, black-and-white workspace is a creative and non-traditional version of hell: It's what you'd get if Apple designers interpreted Dante's Inferno.
There are those who would say that, given the tidy wrap-up of the show's overall plot at the end of thesecond season, it's fine that Enlightened ended when it did. Those people are wrong. As proof, I offer not just the performances of Dern, Ladd, White, and Wilson; not just the show's perceptive critique of capitalism; and not just its prescient depiction of oblivious blowhards like Dougie (who declared himself sick of having to go to H.R. about all that "he said, she said stuff").
HBO
No, my proof that Enlightened had more life left rests in a series of quietly stunning episodes that revolved around supporting characters. In the first season, "Consider Helen," which focused on the disappointments and tragedies accumulated by Amy's mother, is one of the greatest TV episodes of our time, in part due to the sensational range and skill of Ladd.

Family Nudism - All about Family Nudism here. Best collection of Family Nudism Photos for you.
Some people take part in non-sexual public nude events. These may be in a naturist resort or club or at a nude beach. Outdoor nude recreation can take place in private or rural areas, though generally limited to warm weather.
Naturism or nudism is a cultural and political movement advocating and defending social nudity in private and in public. It may also refer to a lifestyle based on personal, family and/or social nudism.
Several other terms ("social nudity", "public nudity", and, recently, "clothes-free") have been proposed as alternative terms for naturism, but none has found the same wides0acceptable by many on the beaches of Finland, France, Spain, Italy and most of the rest of Europe(and even in some outdoor swimming pools); however, exposure of the genitals is rpread public acceptance as the older terms "naturism" and (in much of the United States) "nudism".
Others practice casual public nudity. Topfree sunbathing is considered.stricted to nudist areas in most regions. In the United States, topfree sunbathing and wearing thongs are not common in many areas, but are limited to nude beaches in various locations. It is normally acceptable for men in the U.S. to be barechested or shirtless when engaged in outdoor recreational activities.

the Keno machine was not functioning. He waited for several hours for the Keno machine to be fixed. During this time he read and played some of the slot machines. Shortly before 4:00 p.m., when his bus was scheduled to leave the casino to return to Middletown, Sabir went to the casino credit office to request reimbursement of his bus fare because he had been unable to play Keno all day. He had done this on a previous occasion when the machine was not operable.
While he was in the casino credit office, Sabir discussed his request for reimbursement with a casino host, Susan Valenti ("Valenti"). Sabir testified that he was not angry when he was speaking with Valenti and did not use profanity. Valenti testified, however, that Sabirworking undercover, he did not know at the time that they were state police officers. He then indicated to Detective Jowett and Trooper Lisee that he would like to lodge a complaint rather than pursue the reimbursement. As he began to leave, he took two steps away from defendants Jowett and Lisee. Immediately upon taking these steps, Detective Jowett and Trooper Lissee put their hands on Sabir and propelled him against a wall. Detective Jowett testified that he told Sabir that he was under arrest at this time, in part because he interpreted these two steps as a movement towards a nearby casino host. He testified that he did not base his decision to arrest Sabir on Valenti's complaint. A physical altercation ensued.

the room at this time. Sabir testified that they "snatched" him off the gurney, causing him to fall on the floor. Another physical altercation ensued during which a hospital security guard sprayed Sabir in the eyes with cap stun, or pepper spray. Trooper Fusaro, the hospital security workers and the Norwich police officer left the room after the cap stun was used, while the plaintiff remained in the room. Sabir testified that he was left on the floor of the hospital room in a fetal position and that he was handcuffed at this time.
After a couple of minutes, Trooper Fusaro and others returned to the room. Sabir testified that Trooper Fusaro carried him out of the hospital by his neck while he was dressed only in his socksand underwear, even though the temperature outside was roughly between 10 and 20 degrees. He was returned to a cell at the police barracks and was clothed only in his underwear for the remainder of the night. Sabir further testified that he remained in handcuffs in the cell.
*236 The next morning Sabir was brought to court. He was released on a promise to appear and thereafter retained counsel. Sabir was charged with the following offenses arising from the incident at the casino: Breach of Peace under Conn. Gen. Stat. § 53a-181; Failure to Submit Fingerprints under Conn. Gen.Stat. § 29-12; and Interfering with an Officer under Conn. Gen.Stat. § 53a-167a (collectively, the "casino charges").

The Ugandan rebel group has killed and abducted people on a regular basis for the last 23 years, from Uganda, Sudan, Central African Republic and Democratic Republic of Congo, Human Rights Watch noted in a report in March.
The U.N. says the LRA killed more than 1,200 people in a 10-month period throughout 2008 and 2009, while Human Rights Watch said a massacre in the remote northeast killed 321 people in December.
The U.S. military’s African Command (Africom) provides communications, logistical and intelligence support for Uganda’s national army in its pursuit of the LRA.

that works to support, connect and empower military families, is a natural partner for us in this endeavor.
This month the Sierra Club, Blue Star Families, the National Park Service, the Armed Services, YMCA, the National Military Family Association, and the Outdoors Alliance for Kids have all joined forces to launch the Celebration of the Military Child Outdoors. Many outdoor organizations would love to support military families, but aren't sure how to start. At the same time, many military families want to get outside and experience nature. The Celebration of the Military Child Outdoors brings these two communities face-to-face and will build lasting relationships that will benefit military families and, especially, military kids.
We kicked off the month with a fun get-together in Northern Virginia, where military kids and theirby March 17, 1997, and be confirmed by April 15, 1997, or this case will be dismissed.

strong scientific or ethical reasons to stop. However, the Medical Research Council (MRC), who were the main funding agency, decided to convene an Independent International Committee to review the WHI findings, the progress of WISDOM and other evidence. The Committee concluded that \"WISDOM was unlikely to provide substantial evidence to influence clinical practice in the next 10 years\" \[[@B10]\]. MRC decided in October 2002 to stop the funding of WISDOM on the basis of the lack of importance \[[@B18]\].
The halting of WISDOM in October 2002 did not have an immediate effect on the continuation of our trial. In November 2002 the EPHT Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) made the annual interim analysis of the data and found no results that would have demanded cessation of the trial. A strongupdated information from other HT trials. The participating women were kept up to date on the results of other trials and their influence on EPHT as well as with the process of the EPHT trial with an annual newsletter in Estonian. In September 2002 women were told why WHI estrogen-progestin trial was stopped, and were given the disease outcomes per 10 000 women for those using or not using HT. Women were told that they had been in the trial for a shorter period than women in the WHI, and women with less than four years of exposure were encouraged to continue the trial treatment. We encouraged the women to contact the researchers if they wanted more information.
In spite of all the given information no decrease in adherence

(1995) and the halting of the intervention (2004), Estonian society changed very rapidly. Estonia had been a part of the Soviet Union with a planned economy up until 1991, when the independent Estonia had adopted a liberal market economy. By 1994--95 pharmacies had been privatized and the availability of drugs was no longer a problem and medicine choices were determined mostly by prescribers \[[@B22]\]. In 2004 Estonia became a member of the European Union and its economic and scientific contacts with Western Europe increased and income had increased, but less for poor people \[[@B23]\]. A better financial situation and availability of HT offered women in the blind sub-study and non-blind control arm a possibility to buy HT.
In the early 1990s, Estonia was still a maiden country for conductingthe Estonian drug control authority for permission was unproblematic. However, the first shipment of drugs was in bulk and the Estonian law required that the tablets have to be packed into vials and labelled by a pharmaceutical company. Because of the small number of tablets packing would have to be done by hand, and many negotiations were needed before we reached an agreement with a local pharmaceutical company. The next shipment of drugs was actually pre-packed, with 215 tablets in each vial i.e. for seven months use, but we still needed a pharmaceutical company to put the labels on the vials. The company who had done the packing was unwilling to do it and we had to find a new company. More importantly, this changed the time of

the demilitarised zone between the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights and Syria noticed four figures reportedly trying to place an explosive device on the fence along the frontier.
An Israeli air force plane was scrambled and fired a missile at the militants, killing them all.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesperson said on Twitter there was no doubt that they had been "en route to [an] imminent attack on our forces".
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in response: "Any attempt to harm our soldiers or our citizens will be met with a decisive response like tonight's IDF operation that prevented a terror attack. I commend the vigilant IDF soldiers that acted quickly and accurately."
Hours later, missile batteries operated by Hezbollah and the Syrian army in the Qalamoun Mountains, near the border betweenSyria and Lebanon, were reportedly attacked.
Al-Jazeera attributed the strike to the Israeli military, but Israeli media quoted sources as denying the report.
A source in the Israeli defence establishment told Haaretz that there had been fighting in the area between Syrian government forces and jihadist militants from al-Nusra Front, al-Qaeda's affiliate in Syria. Israel had no interest in getting involved in the conflict between the two sides, he added.

was checking some of his fields and helping to move his combine to another location. He was following the combine in his personal vehicle on Highway 125. The weather was clear and sunny. Payton attempted to pass the combine, but could not do so because of oncoming traffic. He pulled back into his lane of travel behind the combine. The vehicle driven by Kearse was approaching Payton from the rear. Kearse testified that she saw Payton attempt to pass the combine and also saw him pull back into his lane. When Payton attempted to pass, Kearse reduced her speed, but after Payton returned to his lane, she "picked [her] speed back up." Kearse testified that she applied her brakes, but struck Payton in the rear after he pulledback into his lane of travel. She admitted she was traveling too fast and could not stop. The trial judge granted Payton's motion for a directed verdict on liability.
After the accident, Payton began experiencing problems with hearing loss, ringing in the ears, and dizziness. He also suffered from neck pain and decreased range of motion in his neck. Payton was treated by several doctors, including an otolaryngologist, an orthopaedic surgeon, and a neurologist. The otolaryngologist testified that Payton had bilateral sensory neural deafness with secondary tinnitus. It was his opinion that the accident caused the problem and *225 that the tinnitus, hearing loss, and dizziness would probably get worse so that Payton could not return to farming.
The neurologist testified that Payton had a C6-C7 disk herniation with compression

hidden inside it. "My uncle would never eat spaghetti, or anything with tomato sauce," she says. "The only way him and his brothers would eat things like that was if they were at a restaurant. They knew the women could control them with the blood if they ate it."
In ancient Greece and Rome, blood was considered to have strong magical properties as well. Capitolinus writes of the empress Faustina, wife of Marcus Aurelius. Faustina once was consumed by her lust for a gladiator, and she suffered greatly over this. Finally, she confessed to her husband, who discussed the matter with the Chaldeans oracles. Their advice was to order the gladiator killed, and have Faustina bathe herself in his blood. While covered in it, she was to sleep withher husband. According to Daniel Ogden, in Magic, Witchcraft and Ghosts in the Greek and Roman Worlds, Faustina did as she was told, and she was "delivered of her love for the gladiator." She also happened to be delivered of a son a short time later, Commodus, who was quite fond of gladiatorial games.
Pliny the Elder relates the story of the mage Osthanes, who used blood from a tick found on a black bull to control a woman who might be unfaithful to her husband. He says, "If the loins of a woman are smeared [with the blood], she will be made to find sex repulsive."
In parts of the Ozarks, there is a belief that dried blood on a floor will liquefy as a harbinger of destructive storms

In the Greek drama (?) Iphigenia, in order to be able to go on a war against Troy, the Greeks need wind, and for the wind, they need to sacrifice Agamemnon's daughter (the gods demand it). Menelaus wants him to JUST DO IT!, he's like: "Okay (screaming internally)", but he does it in the end (the girl sacrifices herself).
Well I've got one question about this story:
Why did the gods demand a human sacrifice, after they've put the last guy, who played soylent green on them, in Hell? (Ya know, that Tantalus guy)?

I've always thought it falls under Frazer's concept of Sympathetic Magic. In Ancient Greek, the idea of the lifeforce is bound with words related to breath or wind: ψυχή (psuke)

With the bit itself, relatively rapid wear of the shoulder is not particularly important because, at worst, it will not wear away nearly as rapidly as the working point end thereof. Support for the bit, however, is in the form of a block which is usually welded in place on the drive machine and rapid wear of the shoulder on the block is a serious problem because the block is normally expected to remain in good condition for the life of several bits.
It has been found that the use of a metal wear sleeve which supports the shank of the bit while itself, in turn, is supported within the support block has substantially eliminated this problem. Various configurations of support blocks and sleeves are known in the art.$18,000 to make because they were milled from solid block of aluminium, Dean Takahashi wrote in Opening the Xbox -- as cited by Eurogamer.

"One of the tricks he made his own was a love for closing refrigerator, cupboard and home doors. Flash and our 20-month-old son are attached at the hip and are always keeping each other entertained and in trouble."
Flash is also an international canine. He was born in Queensland, Australia, and moved with his family to the United States last year. While in Australia, Flash enjoyed going to the Outback, participating in animal charity walks and swimming in the tropical Queensland waters. He has a fan base there that still sends him toys and treats. But according to his owner, he's settled into his California life well.
Asthe contest's Grand Prize winner, Flash's owner received a Canon EOS Digital Rebel T3 Digital SLR Camera Kit and a variety of Sentry Petrodex pet dental care products. Radio personality and pet enthusiast Steve Dale served as the celebrity judge of the nationwide contest, which received nearly 2,000 photo entries in just four weeks.
"The competition was fierce, and choosing the winner from the five finalists was a tough one," Dale stated. "I just kept going back to Flash's expression and his happiness, which radiated through the photo. His star quality is strong, and from his smile and healthy teeth, it's clear that his owner is taking care of him well!"

London: William Faden, 10 August 1776. Early state. 10 3/4 x 14 1/2 (neat lines) plus full margins. Engraving by W. Faden. A few points of color. Excellent condition. Nebenzahl: 64; Stevens & Tree, 14c with the large bottom margin that proves that a letter press addition was never a part of it.
One of William Faden's rare and important series of Revolutionary War battle maps. During the Revolution, the Britishpublic, government and military had a great desire for accurate maps of the events from across the Atlantic. The most important publisher of such maps was William Faden, who had access to many of the original drawings sent by soldiers and surveyors from the Americas. These provided then, and provide now, the most accurate and contemporary look at the battles, events and locations of War. This is the rare first state of Faden's map showing the British attack on Fort Sulivan [sic] at the entrance to Charleston Harbor (later renamed Fort Moultrie).
Clinton's army was landed unopposed on Long Island, to the north of Sullivan's, as Clinton's maps showed an easy ford to the mainland. This was in error, and thus Clinton's troops became stranded spectators to the action

Then, seven principal areas--technology, materials, vehicles and control, propulsion, electronics, weapons environment, and man--are discussed with respect to the timing and extent of their impact upon the Air Force, leading up to the opinion of the author that from now on into the foreseeable future, "man-related" R&D is expected to become a "dominant" force. Examples of R&D highlighting the importance of this area are given.in-house cryptocurrency known as 'stellar', as well as a decentralised gateway for digital currency-to-fiat currency transfers.

obvious that "considerable" damage had been done. He also testified that the allowable traffic that a street will bear and the total loads that can be hauled over it are determined by its total structural section and that said structural section is determined by "the type of basement [sic] material, the type of rock, and to a certain extent the thickness of the paving and the type of top covering." Elaborating on this, he compared the thicknesses of San Bruno Avenue and a typical state freeway, testifying that the latter is usually 18 inches or more from the dirt to the top of the pavement with 14 inches of base material, whereas San Bruno Avenue's thickness is 3 inches of pavement on only 8 inches of untreated rockthe law, arguing that he was the only one charged or billed by the City during the entire time he was hauling. While the record discloses that plaintiff was the only one billed, it also discloses that of the few permits applied for during the same period, only one other issued to Readymix Trucking Company *886 involved large hauls. [fn. 20] As to Readymix, there was evidence that it was not billed because it conducted its hauling operations over the allowable truck route, except for a period of time during which an injunction against the City was in effect and for an additional one or two-day period. Furthermore, the record shows that the City's policy in issuing permits for San Bruno Avenue was to limit the number

Community's de facto leader Jeff Winger (Joel McHale), is, essentially, Tony Stark, a clever and charismatic asshole who, by almost all metrics, should be a villain. And yet his growth and eventual redemption make up the heart of the franchise.
Alison Brie's Annie Edison, meanwhile, is Captain America, a do-gooding rule follower who grows into a sex symbol, and whose oft-contentious relationship with our primary hero takes center stage in several installments.
Yvette Nicole Brown's Shirley Bennett, meanwhile, is Hawkeye: consistently underestimated, loaded with deadly barbs, andconstantly concerned about her family. Britta Perry (Gillian Jacobs) is Thor, a sarcastic outsider with a not particularly high opinion of humanity. (Her "I lived in New York" catchphrase is basically Thor's "Back on Asgard...") And Black Widow's jumpsuit is filled by Jim Rash's Dean Craig Pelton, a not-always-well-written character and master of disguises, played by an award-winner.

Plants of Rhodiola L. of Crassulaceae are perennial herbaceous or subshrub plants. There are about 90 species of such plants in the world, in which 73 species exist in China. For the study of various plants of Rhodiola L., domestic and foreign scholars mainly focus on more than ten species such as Rhodiola crenulata, Rhodiola rosea, Rhodiola dumulosa, Rhodiola sachalinensis, Rhodiola kirilowii and Rhodiola sacra. Various species of Rhodiola L. have great difference in chemical compositions and efficacy. The plant of Rhodiola L. recorded in Chinese Pharmacopoeia (Edition 2015) refers to the dry radix and rhizome of Rhodiola crenulata, a plant of Crassulaceae which is featured by sweet and bitter taste.

Megahit "The Host" was sold to MHAO Production and Management for the pic's last remaining territory, Italy. Poland's May Fly bought Kim Ki-duk library titles "Crocodile" and "Samaritan Girl."
"The Chaser (Chugyeokja)," a Korean thriller directed by Na Hong-jin, has sold about 800,000 tickets in just five days since its Feb. 14 release, taking it to No. 2 in domestic box office charts behind Hollywood flick "Jumper."
But the chase seems to be already over. According to ticket website Max Movie, "The Chaser" topped ticket reservations as of Tuesday, taking a 41.3 percent share. That translates into an easy victory for the Korean film in the coming weekend.
The show-stealing box-office performance of "The Chaser" came as a surprise. After all, it is a small-budget film,and its main actors are low-profile compared with those in other Korean movies in recent months. And the lengthy running time of 123 minutes is not a factor associated with stronger ticket sales here.
Defying all its negative aspects, "The Chaser" is now emerging as a major hit film in the first quarter. Critics hail the movie's breathtaking pace; viewers have expressed their pleasant surprise about the film's sheer excitement.
Following the filmmaking traditions of well-made thrillers, "The Chaser" exhibits a tight plot, impressive acting and relentless speed.
Director Na has made two fine choices in setting up his film. First, he ignores the motivation of the murderer. Social conditions are not treated as an important driver; instead, a critical view is presented against the authorities, who have lost their role

and function as protectors of the public. Second, the overall anger about the incident is expressed through Jung-ho, an ex-detective played by Kim Yun-seok ("Tazza: The High Rollers") in a very personal fashion.
Jung-ho is now a pimp, but he confronts a strange situation in which many of his girls are simply disappearing. He finds a clue about the case when he goes after another missing girl named Mi-jin and even comes across the murderer, Young-min (Ha Jeong-woo). But the police do not care about Jung-ho's concern about Mi-jin, and everything begins to break down at a fast pace, sparking a wave of overwhelming emotions.
Meanwhile, the movie's production house, Bidangil, said it signed preliminary sales contract at the Berlin International Film Festival which ended on Feb. 17. After twoscreenings for buyers at the film market, "The Chaser" secured contracts for sales in France, Greece, and Hong Kong, as well as Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg, Bidangil said.
"French distributors competed to get the right for 'The Chaser' and American distributors also showed strong interest in the movie itself and in remake rights," said Seo Young-ju, president of Fine Cut who is in charge of the movie's overseas sales.
The advance of "The Chaser" offers a reprieve to Korean cinema which has struggled to defend its position against the onslaught of Hollywood blockbusters. In recent months, many Korean films starring high-profile actors tanked at the box office, raising concerns about the overall competitiveness of the domestic film industry.

"My New Partner," a sort of buddy-and-detective movie featuring Ahn Sung-ki and Jo Han-sun is being released today nationwide, while "Humming," a romantic flick staring Lee Chan-hee and Han Ji-hye, is slated for March 13 and "Fate," a tale of betrayal where Song Seung-heon and Kwon Sang-woo compete for the spotlight, is set to be released on March 20.
Meanwhile, the producers of a host of Korean movies, including "Girl Scout" and "Kill Me," have decided to wait until May or June.
The only relief at the box office now is the trailblazing performance of "The Chaser (Chugyeokja)," a Korean thriller directed by Na Hong-jin. Ticket sales have surpassed the 3 million mark.
Since its Feb. 14 release, the film has maintained its lead at the box office, even outsmarting otherHollywood flicks.
The box-office performance of "The Chaser" is regarded as a surprise because it is after all a small-budget film and its main actors are low profile compared with those in other Korean movies released in recent months. Even the lengthy running time of 123 minutes was deemed a negative factor. But despite all the bad press, the movie has solidified its position as a "must-see" for mainstream audiences.
However, the euphoria sparked by "The Chaser" is limited as prospects for Korean film releases are unlikely to brighten for a while. In recent years, about three to four Korean movies were released per week. But the figure steadily declined to two in mid-February, and is now standing at the much-feared one or zero.

someone had told him that Berry had once
put her feet up on a desktop and
intentionally spread her legs so men
could look down her shorts and that she
had lifted up her shirt in the workplace,
and he instructed Berry not to send mixed
messages to the men in the warehouse.
Berry admits that the sexual component
of the harassment stopped as soon as she
made her original complaint to Blocker;
during her deposition, she characterized
the subsequent acts by Causevic and the
other employees as retaliatory and not
sexual, and she admitted that throughout
the remainder of her employment at Delta
she was never again subjected to any
conduct or language of a sexually
inappropriate nature by Causevic or any
other employee.

The band's name was supposedly taken from a Russian youth gang and was said to translate to "Burn Burn Satellite." This has been disputed. Other names the band had toyed with were Sperm Festival and, one I really like for reasons clear to anyone who knows me well, Nazi Occult Bureau. The band was described by founding member Tony James as "hi-tech sex and designer violence." The music was rock with a liberal dose of sampling and electronic mayhem. Commercial space was sold on the albums, and the look always mattered more than the sounds the

There was a diamond in the rough for the Rockets tonight. That diamond was Thabo Sefolosha. The Swiss swingman had the hot hand in the fourth quarter, scoring 15 of his season high 19 points, overshadowing Caron Butler's 11 fourth quarter points. Sefolosha shot anamazing 7/10 from the field.
"He was just on fire," Rockets head coach Rick Adelman said. "He played the entire fourth quarter. I had plans to put Shane [Battier] back in the game, but I ultimately opted not to since this was his night. He's definitely earned himself a few extra minutes the next few games"
"This wouldn't have been possible without Kyle [Lowry]. He was just giving us all the ball right where we wanted it. That kind of unselfish play got us the win tonight," Sefolosha himself had to say.
Dallas was in control almost the whole game, only allowing the Rockets to build their lead to as little as three while they held a nine point lead at one point. Dirk Nowitzki was consistent for them as he

havoc on suppliers across Europe, America and Asia.
For nearly a decade, former Air Force deputy chief John Blackburn has been sounding the alarm, warning Australia is vulnerable to global forces because of its low stocks of essential supplies.
The retired air-vice marshal is attracting a chorus of supporters from the military and Federal Parliament, who are urging Prime Minister Scott Morrison to establish a national strategy to make Australia more resilient to global shocks.
"The economic fallout from COVID is putting us into uncharted territory," says Mr Blackburn.
"We could be talking about a failure of the trading system in areas — that is a nightmare we don't want to go to and requires very close cooperation between governments.
He says successive Australian governments have failed to consider the risks of ansupply.
"And also like our medical supplies, they're complex chemical compounds — chemicals that require the raw product to be shipped somewhere, made into a secondary product, and then coming into Australia to be used in the water supply system."
Hydrochem chief executive Nick Duncan has been preparing for disrupted supply chains. ( ABC News: Jeremy Story Carter )
The risk of disruptions has been a wake-up call for the industry.
Water suppliers and treatment companies are coordinating with national authorities, as they try to trace their supply chains, identify bottlenecks, stockpile more chemicals and confront unprecedented competition for shipping.
At its factory in south-east Melbourne, water treatment company Hydrochem began hoarding chemicals not long after the outbreak in Wuhan.

The Council has had ten regular sessions concerning human rights worldwide and five special sessions to condemn Israel.
The Council has adopted more resolutions and decisions condemning Israel than all the other 191 U.N. member states combined.
The Council has terminated human-rights investigations of such paragons as Belarus, Cuba, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Liberia.
The last time the Council took action on Sudan was seven months ago. The resolution on that country "acknowledges . . . the steps taken by the Government of the Sudan to strengthen the human-rights legal and institutional framework, principally in law reform." (The Sudanese criminal code prohibits homosexuality, makes adultery a capital offense, and provides for flogging, amputation, stoning, and crucifixion.)
The Council has just terminated every investigation of "consistent patterns of gross andby the African and Asian regional groups, and the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) has a majority in both of these groups. That means the OIC holds the balance of power. The more time the Council spends demonizing Israel, the less likely it becomes that it will ever get around to condemning genocide in Sudan, female slavery in Saudi Arabia, or torture in Egypt.
President Obama's decision to bring the United States into the Council is a gift for his political adversaries. The Council and its many subsidiary bodies meet almost year round, and many of their proceedings are webcast.

17, she said: "I implore the members of the Congressional Black Caucus to spearhead the participation of the United States" in Durban II. Far from being worried about another global platform for anti-semitism, McKinney is just fine with "a discussion of Zionism in the context of such a conference."
McKinney's call has been echoed in "Open Letters" sent to President Obama by entities that seem to have been created for petition purposes like "United Against Racism.net" - whose website sports a rally from Durban I and a sign reading "say no to apartheid in Palestine."
The go-Obama campaign is also being run out of the UN itself. UN headquarters in New York hosted a March 26 event "in support of the Durban Review Conference." Ejim Dike of the "Urban JusticeCenter," a signatory to a March 27 "open letter," was invited to speak. Dike said her group was spurring the go-Obama campaign with NGOs Nord-Sud and the International Action Center. The action center representative told the UN meeting that Durban II should single out Israel, claiming "a conference against racism . . . must address" "the crime in Gaza." Nord-Sud distributed a petition inside the UN New York meeting room "urg[ing] the Obama administration to participate . . . without threats or preconditions and in a spirit of mutual respect . . . " alongside the claim that Israel is engaged in "apartheid practices against Palestinians."
Raising the decibel level of these phony anti-racism campaigns is not the only consequence of Obama's fence-sitting on Durban II attendance. It also

Two soldiers from forces operating under Libya's Tripoli-based government walking through the deserted streets of Bin Jawad, seen through a hole blown in the outside wall of a family home (file photo).
The top United Nations official for Libya today told the Security Council about the "tragic" humanitarian situation there, underlining that "personal tragedies and collective suffering" are the consequence of the continued lack of State authority in most parts of the North African country.
"In the few weeks since the preparation of the report, over 6,000 families from Sirte alone have had to flee their homes to escape on-going clashes and military operations against Da'esh [also known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, or ISIL]," said Martin Kobler, the Special Representative of the Secretary-General and Headof the UN Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL).
His briefing to the Council provided details on the work of the Mission since 26 February, including information relating to the humanitarian situation, political developments, the military situation, and UNSMIL's return to Libya.
Humanitarian situation
Due to the day-to-day hardships of life under ISIL, many civilians are sheltering in schools, universities and public buildings, with the number of displaced persons reaching a staggering 435,000, Mr. Kobler explained.
"The capacity of local communities and of aid agencies to host and provide assistance has been stretched to breaking point," he warned, noting that in May, 1,100 migrants tragically died in the central Mediterranean Sea, with 500 drowning in a single day, among them 40 children.

the Euphrates and is drained by the River Qoueiq. Oylum Höyük (ill.: Oylum Höyük, aerial view (1991)) is located on the Akpınar River, one of the headwaters of the Qoueiq, and forms the ancient centre of this region.
History of Kilis City
Excavations took place between 1995 to 2002 in a cooperation between the Istanbul Section of the German Archaeological Institute and Hacettepe University, Ankara. Since 2003, the results of the project began being prepared for publication.
Oylum Höyük was continuously settled from the Neolithic period to Hellenistic times and formed the regional centre during these four millennia. The place lost importance only during Roman times, when the settlement moved to the opposite side of the river. Occupation continued there into the byzantine period. The regional centre moved to Cyrrhus, nowlocated on the Syrian side of the border.
Objectives
The first objective was to produce a stratigraphic sequence for the western Euphrates region, as the history of this region was virtually unknown, when compared to the intensively researched regions of Cilicia and the Euphrates Valley. The second, specific levels were investigated, in particular the Middle Bronze Age levels were uncovered in large areas. In this period, Oylum Höyük was the centre of a small state, the direct neighbour of the Hegemony of Yamhad (Aleppo), but its name is unknown. Surface surveys by U.B. Alkım (1968) and by an Italian mission(1971) first established the central postion and strategic sigificance of Oylum Höyük on a branch of the trade route north from Aleppo. Systemstic investigation began in 1984/85 by E.Özgen. Since 1987

there have been regualr excavations at the site. Since 1995, the DAI has participated in a German-Turkish cooperation in these works.
Previous Activities
1. Excavation of a step-trench on the eastern slope (in 3 levels of 9m x 15m;17m deep) and connected investigations of the Middle Bronze Age levels. 2. Open area investigation of Hellenistic to Iron Age occupation levels on the north summit.3. Clearance of a massive mudbrick building of late Iron Age date on the western summit. 4. Investigation of late Chalcolithic levels in several trenches on the West Terrace. 5. Initiation of open area excavation of the late Bronze Age occupation levels on the southern slope. 6. Rescue excavation of a early Byzantine church in a field on the opposite bank of the river. Current Work1. Postexcavationanalysis of the step-trench on the eastern slope, in preparation for publication. 2. Continuation of the step-trench into the Chalcolithic levels. 3. Continuation of the open area excavation of the Late Bronze Age levels on the southern slope. 4. Detailed investigation of the architecture of the late Iron Age monumental building on the west summit (Liverpool University).
Results The oldest excavated settlement at Oylum Höyük dates from the middle Chalcolithic.Levels with Amuq E material was found in the bottom of the eastern slope. 300 metres away, the south-western foot of the mound, a massive terrace wall of the early fourth millennium BC was uncovered. After a hiatus, there followed a late Chalcolithic village occupation (ill.: mass produced coba bowls, from the Late Chalcolithic village (5.-4. mill. BC.)). Contemporary material

Age, a massive mudbrick building was constructed on top of the western summit (ill.: Massive mudbrick building, second half of 2nd mill. BC.). In the Hellenistic period, there was a prosperous settlement on Oylum Höyük. From a Hellenistic building on the western summit of the mound came a jug containing a silver coin hoard, the latest of which dated from the reign of Antiochus III. Late Roman graves from the north summit of the mound are the site's most recent finds. Apparently, the mound was abandoned as a settlement in favour of a new settlement on the western bank of the Akpınar river. A Byzantine church of the 5/6th century AD belongs to this settlement (ill.: Church from the Early Byzantine period, c. 5.-6. cent.).

I. Background
Ms. Pippin began working for the Town's Data Processing Department in 1991 as a system operator, and was later promoted to systems analyst. (Pippin Dep. at 13:16-22, 15:6-13.[1]) In April 2006, the department's Director, Scott Scofield, became ill and soon was unable to work full-time. In accordance with Mr. Scofield's apparent wishes and direction, Ms. Pippin began performing the Director's duties when Mr. Scofield was out of the office. (Pippin Dep. at 22:5-23, 25:4-27:23, 29:4-22.) Pursuant to the union contract under which Ms. Pippin was employed, the Town Administrator, Christopher Clark, paid her the director's salary, prorated to the amount of time she spent performing the director's duties.

Because she was planning to have a member of the Town's Board of Education with her when she interviewed the candidates recommended to her, Dr. Marmer discouraged Mr. Clark from appointing a member of the Board of Education to the interview panel.

(Clark Aff. at ¶¶ 25-28; Sullivan Aff. at ¶ 17; Luddecke Aff., Ex. L, at ¶ 5). Mr. Sullivan then constructed a "standardized" list of interview questions covering personal, technical, managerial, and behavioral issues after collecting suggestions from each panel member as well as Barry Grant, an IT consultantan MBA and a bachelors degree in industrial psychology and engineering.

Sion president Christian Constantin (centre) walks away from the scene of the incident inside Lugano's stadium
Sion president Christian Constantin has been given a 14-month ban for striking former Switzerland coach Rolf Fringer.
The incident happened after Sion's 2-1 Swiss Super League win in Lugano on 21 September.
Constantin, who was also fined 100,000 Swiss francs (£77,804), was filmed slapping Fringer, who is now a television pundit.
The 60-year-old is prohibited from entering all football-related venues. He can appeal against the decision.
Fringer said he had been hit several times before the blow caught on tape.
The Swiss Football League said: "The violent behaviour of Christian Constantin against Rolf Fringer, which (Constantin) doesn't deny, is clearly a violation of the rules of conduct."

The number of property buyers taking out lenders' mortgage insurance is soaring, but just who does that insure?
An alarming number of borrowers do not understand that after the bank gets paid out, they could still be left hundreds and thousands of dollars in debt to the insurer, should anything go wrong.
With interest rates destined to rise and house price growth expected to ease, many borrowers could find themselves in much more trouble than they bargained for.
In 2006, Luke (who asked that we not publish his surname) was climbing the corporate ladder. He bought an investment holiday unit on the New South Wales mid-north coast as well as a family home.
However, as the global financial crisis hit, he was made redundant.
"In 2012, we were no longer able to servicethe investment property loan and the bank involved took mortgagee-in-possession of that property," he said.
Luke was not too worried because he had lenders' mortgage insurance, or LMI.
"What we understood was that it was there to enable the bank to lend money under circumstances where there was not a 20 per cent deposit on the property," he explained.
"We understood that even though we were the policy holder to the mortgage insurer, it was for the benefit of the bank."
Widespread LMI misunderstanding
Luke believed correctly that the insurer would pay the bank in the event of default.
What he did not realise was that the insurer would then chase him for the money, which is several hundred thousand dollars.
"It's left us in dire straits. It's a very difficult situation," he added.

Iran says the recent Saudi policies are a "very sad tragedy," emphasizing that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is paying billions of dollars to the United States and the Israeli regime to win their support.
"Amid the power struggle inside the Saudi royal family and in order to win the support of the US and, recently, the regime occupying [Jerusalem] al-Quds (Israel), he (bin Salman) is making every ridiculous and shameful remark in addition to paying billions of dollars of Saudi people's money, " Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi said on Friday.
"The recent Saudi policies are a very sad strategy because a Muslim country with all its ostentatious claims is stooping to the level of a sycophant of the regime occupying al-Quds," he added.
In an apparent referenceadded that the neophyte and power-thirsty prince has closed his eyes on "all historical realities and seven decades of crimes by the child-killing" Israeli regime and in a "big and blatant act of treason" against the Palestinian cause, the prince spoke about Riyadh's alliance with the "illegitimate" Tel Aviv regime.
During an interview with the Atlantic published on April 2, bin Salman recognized Israel's right to exist, stressing that Israelis are entitled to their own land.
“I believe that each people, anywhere, has a right to live in their peaceful nation. I believe the Palestinians and the Israelis have the right to have their own land,” he said.
Qassemi said such claims indicate that bin Salman had not studied either history or geography and knows nothing about the suffering of Muslim

Cari: After the 2014 season, I was definitely a member of the camp that thought John Donovan deserved more time. Not that I thought his offenses, and his play calling and time management, had done well enough to warrant another year; but rather, the impact of the sanctions and youth and inexperience surrounding the Penn State offense of last season were insufficient to give him a complete grade, and it would be unfair to fully judge him under all of those circumstances.
Less than halfway through the 2015 season, I was ready for him to be replaced. I wasn't convinced that James Franklin would make a change at offensive coordinator, but after an off-season of workingparts have certainly been there to produce a better product than what we saw for two seasons.
Noel: Yes. Unequivocally. It was the best crunch time decision James Franklin has made all year. Despite the amount of strange revisionist history going around thanks to some tweet from a grad assistant who blamed Franklin for Donovan's troubles coordinating ("handcuffing" him to an offense he did like), it is undeniably the right move. For one, no, John Donovan is not secretly an excellent offensive coordinator hindered by James Franklin's passionate love for play action jet sweeps. We have five years of data to prove that he is, at best, terrible. Hell, mediocre would've been a massive improvement over what his offenses at Vandy and PSU accomplished. Yes, he was saddled with

ST. LOUIS –- Democrats seized on a new poll of battleground states Thursday that indicated the Obama campaign's attacks on Mitt Romney's private equity career may have tarnished the Republican in voter's minds.
A survey by Purple Strategies, a Washington-based bipartisan group of political consultants, of voters in Colorado, Virginia, Ohio and Pennsylvania showed that in three of the four states, more voters believe that private equity "hurts workers" than think it "helps [the] economy."
The numbers provoked cries of vindication from Democrats in and around the Obama campaign, who have seen their criticism of Romney's Bain Capital career undermined in recent weeks by prominent Democrats who have strayed from their talking points or outright disagreed with them.
Democrats unleashed howls of derision on the press for reporting in recent daysthat the Bain attacks have backfired, a storyline fueled in part by the fact that the Obama campaign has backed off the issue since Memorial Day, refocusing on Romney's time as governor of Massachusetts instead.
"Sorry Acela corridor," wrote Brad Woodhouse, communications director for the Democratic National Committee. "It works."
He included a Los Angeles Times report on the Purple Strategies survey with the headline, "Obama's Bain bashing brings benefits, poll shows." He also included a report from ABC on focus groups in Las Vegas, and Richmond, Va., where female swing voters expressed concern about Romney's actions at Bain.
The Obama campaign has released two commercials about companies that were bought by Bain and then closed plants, costing workers their jobs. Each time they did so on a Monday, first on

News Monday that they didn't launch immediately into the texting story, "But they waited almost 12 minutes before getting to those stories, because they wanted to first explore the news of five soldiers dying in Iraq. Good for Pelley and CBS News and their sense of what's important." As we noted, The NewsHour (PBS) reduced that to a very tiny headline, just three brief sentences, not even the main headline (click here for Stan's take on The NewsHour's 'coverage') while World News with Diane Sawyer completely ignored the five deaths (NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams was ranked second by me with their coverage and CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley first. Both Williams and Pelley noted the deaths and brought on an analyst to provide context). Equallynames of the five who died. There were reports that at least five more were injured in the attack. The Pentagon and the White House have been very lucky that reporters aren't really interested in Iraq. Otherwise, it would be pointed out that on Monday an attack took place and on Wednesday there was still no information. Ignoring DoD, the Union-Leader turns up some information, discovering the name of one of the fallen:
On Tuesday, the Air Force listed PFC. Michael B. Cook Jr. as one of several soldiers whose bodies was to arrive at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware.Michael B. Cook lived in Salem and was stationed in Iraq, according to the March obituary of his grandfather, Benjamin Cook. His wife, Samantha, is in Ft. Riley, Kansas;

speaks to the superintendent of Salem's school system, Michael Delahanty who was principal of Salem High School when Michael Cook attended.and he tells the paper, "There are some kids who stand out and Michael was one of those kids."
Meanwhile CNN notes another US soldier was killed in Iraq today ("southern Iraq"). Gulf Times includes the military's one-sentence statement on the incident, "A US service member was killed Wednesday while conducting operations in southern Iraq." DoD's count of the US military deaths in Iraq currently stands at 4457; however, that does not include today's deaht or the 5 from Monday. They are not included in the DoD count until after DoD releases a statement on their deaths. (DoD does not make death announcements -- USF in Iraq is supposedto do that to the press. After loved ones have been notified, DoD issues a statement identifying the fallen by name. After it does that, it adds the fallen to their count.) .
Turning to the other reported violence of today, Reuters notes a Falluja sticky bombing which claimed 1 life and left another person wounded, a Baghdad roadside bombing which left four people injured, 1 police officer shot dead in Mosul, the corpse of 1 Yazidi was discovered in Mosul (he had been kidnapped earlier), a Baghdad second roadside bombing left four people injured, a Rashad roadside bombing claimed the life of 1 Sahwa member and an assassination attempt on the general manager of the health department in Diayala Province, Ali Hussein, resulted in four by-standers being injured

of two outdoor practice fields. Another nice feature of the new facility: An interactive board that has chronicled all the Boilermakers who have played in the NFL.
Purdue hopes this facility helps it re-establish the success it enjoyed during the Joe Tiller era from 1997-2008, highlighted by a Big Ten title and Rose Bowl appearance in the 2000 season behind Drew Brees.Duck, duck, goose is a traditional children's game often first learned in pre-school or kindergarten.[1] The game may be later adapted on the playground for early elementary students. The object of this game is to walk in a circle, tapping on each child's head until one is finally chosen and he or she must chase the picker to avoid becoming the next picker.
A group of players sit in a circle, facing inward, while another player, the "picker" (a.k.a. the "fox"; some young children call the "picker" the "ducker"), walks around tapping or pointing to each player in turn, calling each a "duck" until finally picking one to be a "goose". The "goose" then rises and chases and tries to tag the "picker", while the "picker" tries to return

winner and joins the circle.
This variant can suddenly be applied to a standard game of duck duck goose if the picker decides to tag someone as an animal other than a duck or a goose. The picker then chooses a relevant form of movement or charade, and the picker and the animal race back to the spot using that form of movement or charade. Some examples include hopping around the circle for duck duck kangaroo, or pulling oneself around on one's stomach for duck duck amoeba. The motion does not necessarily have to correspond to an actual animal, as the picker may choose to roll around the circle for duck duck rock.
When the "goose" is picked, the "picker" runs in one direction of his or her choice aroundthe circle, while the "goose" runs in the other direction. The first person who gets to the vacant space rejoins the circle, while the other person becomes the "picker".
In many cases, the picker will tap heads and state the names of other birds, like "hummingbird", or "crane". When they do that, however, the picker is not actually choosing the "goose". If you make a move to get up and start running when you have not yet been called "goose", you are now the picker. The game restarts with the original picker sitting down in your spot.
In Israel, the game is called "Black Rabbit", when instead of 'duck' the player says "(color) rabbit", and 'goose' is "black rabbit"
In Turkey, the game is called "Yağ Satarım". Instead of saying 'duck'

(CNN) The women range in age from the mid-60s to the early 80s. They love to dance and sing. And twice a week, they come to a gym in Cosmo City, on the outskirts of Johannesburg, to box. They are affectionately known as South Africa's "boxing grannies," and these women are juking and jabbing their way to healthier lives.
"My life was on and off, you know -- sometimes good, sometimes bad," said 80-year-old Constance Ngubane, who's been coming in to box since the Boxing Gogos (another name for "grandmother" in South Africa) program began in 2014. "But since I started boxing ... I feel young, like I'm 16. But I'm not 16; I'm 80!"
Constance Ngubane says she feels less like her 80 years and more like age 16Comic fans both young and old, Marvel and DC, will be able to rejoice. This coming weekend marks the 17th annual Free Comic Book Day in stores all over Montreal.
On Saturday, May 5, 2018, anyone will be able to take home a free book by simply walking into a store.
The event takes place at independent comic book shops all across North America, with thousands of locations around the continent participating in the celebration. Past events have seen millions of free comic books being given away every year to aspiring readers, all of them leaving the store with at least one comic.
This year, at least 48 different comics will be given out, including well-known titles like the Avengers, Captain America, Doctor Who, Pokemon, Riverdale, the Amazing Spiderman, and Star

He's without a doubt a star, someone who's been on national TV more than Ryan Seacrest lately, and someone who's making more money than most from touring, merch and endorsements.

Trump reportedly ordered that Gallagher be able to keep his prestigious 'Trident'' pin - effectively allowing him to be able to retire as a SEAL.
Robert O'Neill (left) has defended Trump's decision to restore the rank of Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher (right) after he was demoted following a high-profile military trial earlier this year, during which he was accused of war crimes
US Navy Secretary Richard Spencer, who was fired from his position on Friday, publicly disagreed with that decision.
Angered by Trump's interference in disciplinary matters, Spencer wrote a stinging letter, which read: 'I no longer share the same understanding with the Commander in Chief who appointed me, in regards to the key principles of good order and discipline.'
'I hereby acknowledge my termination as United States Secretaryof the Navy.'
Gallagher faced a court martial trial earlier this year after being accused of war crimes, including stabbing a captured ISIS prisoner to death with a hunting knife.
However, Gallagher was acquitted on almost all charges in, but was found guilty of posing for a photograph with a corpse and was subsequently demoted.
O'Neill, the Navy SEAL who claims he shot bin Laden during the 2011 raid on his Abbottabad compound, is pictured with President Trump
O'Neill (right) told The Washington Examiner: 'Everyone knows Gallagher (left) will always be a SEAL... they'll never be able to take that away from him'
However, on November 15, Trump reversed the demotion handed down to Gallagher.
Trump tweeted on Sunday that Gallagher had been 'treated very badly' by the navy, and that Spencer had been

International Trade erred by concluding that Customs' failure to send "courtesy notice" by mail to Goldhofer did not abridge constitutional requirements for due process.
Background
3
Goldhofer, a corporation organized under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, has its principal place of business in Memmingen, West Germany. Goldhofer was the importer of record of a certain multiaxle "gooseneck" semitrailer covered by Entry No. 101757 of February 16, 1980, at the port of Norfolk, Virginia.
4
A transcription error by Customs employees caused the name and address of Walsen Design and Manufacturing, an unrelated third party and stranger to the transaction, to be entered into Customs' data base in connection with the involved entry. Consequently, when the June 5, 1981, bulletin notice of liquidation was prepared for the port ofNorfolk, Virginia, the importer of record for Entry No. 101757 was listed as Walsen Design and Manufacturing. Customs printed out the courtesy notice of liquidation and the bill for the duty increase. The bill and notice were mailed to the party indicated thereon, Walsen Design and Manufacturing. Goldhofer never received a courtesy notice or original bill.
5
In the Norfolk Customs Entry Control Section, the transcription error was discovered and a clerk manually annotated the bulletin notice to substitute the name of Goldhofer and its address in Memmingen, West Germany. On or about June 5, 1981, the bulletin notice of liquidation as annotated was posted at the Entry Control Section of the Norfolk Customhouse. No Customs official or employee took steps to correct the data

I suspect one of the major attractions of the 2014 fair will be rides on small roboticized cars which will maneuver in crowds at the two-foot level, neatly and automatically avoiding each other.
Visions of driverless cars were nothing new in 1964. In fact, they're at least as old as the 1939 New York World's Fair, when the superhighways of tomorrow in GM's Futurama exhibit were shown to have fully automated capabilities. The 1957 print ad above showed how the family of tomorrow would soon enjoy a relaxing board game, rather than have to keep their eyes on the road. The driverless cars of tomorrow (with their "robot brains") were a certainty. Car companies and popular futurists of the 1950s were banking on it.
Automated Kitchens
Asimov: Kitchen units will bewill be able to reach someone at the moon colonies, concerning which General Motors puts on a display of impressive vehicles (in model form) with large soft tires intended to negotiate the uneven terrain that may exist on our natural satellite.
Of course, Asimov and his predictions for the New York Times were partially inspired by what was on display at the 1964 New York World's Fair. This was the ostensible purpose of his article, looking forward into the World's Fair of tomorrow. So it's natural that he'd take the swirling futures buzzing around in New York at the time (like colonies on the moon) and tout them as a given. The moon colonies he references were on display in miniature, as he describes, and are shown off in

of those like the contemporary "Fortran" (from "formula translation").
Asimov assured people that the classroom of the future would include so many of the postwar technologies (driven by miniaturization in electronics) then being developed to help kids succeed. Above we see the "automated schoolmarm" that was featured at the 1964 New York World's Fair which gave visitors a peek at the classroom of tomorrow.
Even things that today are frowned upon by educators were still being embraced at midcentury and even earlier. Television was seen by many as a wonderful technology to introduce into the classroom, even at the dawn of the medium. In 1938, when few people knew what television even was, students from NYU assembled in the RCA building for a demonstration of the futuristic classroom — withso bored as to become suicidal.
In the end, Asimov's predictions come across as quite conservative. Or at the very least, very much of their time. He got a lot about the early 21st century right! But what's amazing is that his high percentage comes from dialing back the more techno-utopian ideas of his time.
In retrospect, the most amusing prediction from Asimov? It might just be that the people of the 21st century would still care about the World's Fair.

a dropped ball by first baseman Evan Sharpley set the stage for a three-run homer from Nate Recknagel, his 21st of the season. He had hit a solo homer in the first inning. Alan Oaks hit a three-run homer in the second and Kevin Cislo a two-run inside-the-park shot in the ninth. Notre Dame closed to 10-9 in the fourth inning, but Michigan coach Rich Maloney brought in left-hander Jeff DeCarlo to start the fifth. The Irish offense was dead until the ninth inning when Matt Scioscia singled and Barnes hit a two-run homer, his eighth of the season. Notre Dame went on to bring the potential tying run to the plate, but could not score again. "We swung the bats better tonight, hopefully we can build onthis,'' said Notre Dame coach Dave Schrage. "Danieli was very sharp, it's too bad we couldn't play some defense behind him.'' Thirteen of Michigan's 22 hits and eight of the 14 RBIs came with two out. Schrage shuffled his lineup, giving freshman Mike Scioscia his first career start at the designated hitter in the No. 4 spot, moving the slumping Evan Sharpley down to No. 8. The switch worked well. Scioscia had three hits, a walk and a strikeout. Sharpley hit his 11th homer of the season, a two-run blast to left field in the third inning. Michigan, ranked 17th, is 23-4 in the Big Ten and has already clinched the conference title despite having a four-game series remaining against Northwestern this weekend. The Wolverines will host the

serves as advisor to the boss, underboss, and crew "capos." He also receives a share of the earnings from certain crews. The day-to-day operations of the Family are conducted by groups known as "crews." Each crew is comprised of "made members" of the Family (i.e., official initiates), who are also known as "soldiers" of that crew. The soldiers are in turn assisted by "associates," or "connected" people. These associates are not official members of the Family. Each crew is headed by a "caporegime" ("capo"), or "captain." The capo is responsible for organizing, managing, and supervising the activities of his crew and is responsible for providing support and protection to soldiers and associates. In return, the capo receives a share of all the earnings of each of those soldiersand associates. The capo reports to, and is supervised by, the boss and underboss. There are numerous crews in the Gambino Family.
This indictment concerns the members of at least seven of those crews. At the time of most of the activity specified in the indictment, Castellano was alleged to be the boss, with Dellacroce as underboss and Gallo as consiglieri. Armone, Bilotti, Corrao, DiBernardo, Failla, Gotti, and Zingaro were alleged capos. Soldiers included Agro, DeSimone, Giordano, Mastricova, Ruggiero and Vitta. Daly, Giardina, Migliorisi, Miron and Russo are alleged to have been associates of the Family. The government's version of this part of the Family's structure and hierarchy is reflected in the attached Family "tree." Defendants in this case are indicated by capitals.

In the instant case there is no "means or key" contained in the description. Respondent attempts to meet this deficiency by calling attention to certain references in the agreement which he says make the excepted portion "readily identifiable."
First, he substitutes "quarter" for the second "portion" in the description of the exception, so as to have it read, "Excepting therefrom that portion of the North east [TEXT STRICKEN]-[portion]- [quarter]. ..." By so doing, respondent is able to confine the excepted portion to a definite 10-acre area,accepted the surveyed exception. These will be discussed in the order made in respondent's brief.
Appellant failed to object to Bushnell's survey until he went to the subject property and saw the area on the ground which it encompassed. Respondent's own testimony shows that this procedure was contemplated by the parties and it was understood that appellant would not be in a position to either accept or reject said survey until he had made such comparison.
Appellant failed to return the $30,000 paid by respondent at the time of the signing of the agreement. Respondent testified that he never asked for its return. Apparently a tender of the money was not made until after this action was filed. The tender was refused by respondent. *290

The phacoemulsification machine used was Infinity™ (Alcon Inc., USA). The viscoelastic used was Viscoat™. Preset parameters were used for each grade of cataract. Wherever mydriasis was insufficient, intracameral adrenaline was used.
Standard 2.2 mm phacoemulsification: Under topical anaesthesia, clear corneal incisions, and two-side port incisions were made by keratome and side opening knives. The phaco technique used was direct Phaco chop technique. Viscoat™ was the viscoelastic used, and the machine used was Infinity™ (Alcon Inc., USA). The same preset parameters were used for each grade of cataract. Intraoperatively,In continuing its mission to preserve and celebrate music year-round, The Recording Academy has announced the newest additions to its legendary GRAMMY Hall Of Fame, adding 30 recordings to a collection that now totals 881 titles. The collection is on display at the GRAMMY Museum.
"The GRAMMY Hall Of Fame represents all genres of music, acknowledging the diversity of musical expression for which The Academy has become renowned," said Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy. "These musical treasures have brought us timeless recordings, and each of them deserves to be memorialized. These recordings are living evidence that music remains an indelible part of our culture."

including an unannounced home visit, review of social service records, and interviews with Janis' caseworker, a public health nurse, and several neighbors. Regarding Joshua's relationship with his half brothers and Jack Matty, the counselor said:
Joshua and Jesse give much attention to Ezra and the three boys seem quite close. Joshua has many friends his own age in the neighborhood. He attended a local preschool and looks forward to beginning the first grade in September with his friends. The boys care a lot for Jack and he for them. Joshua in particular goes fishing with Jack and assists in the building projects. Jack seems in all respects, a competent, caring parent.
Jack was described as a "fisherman and carpenter." The investigator noted Ezra's delicate condition and demands on Janis' time.the report which would give her serious concern, although she would be more comfortable if she had conducted the investigation herself.
The evidence relating to William indicated he had not provided financial support for Joshua except for the time Joshua resided with him. His life for the first few years after Joshua's birth had been unsettled, although by the time this case was tried he had completed an area college associate degree program and held regular employment. He said he was depressed about financial and personal problems when he attempted to take his own life. However, he changed his mind in time for his life to be saved. Witness Tidrick said that based on an interview with William she believed at the time of trial he was a stable

person who was concerned about his son.
In contrast to Janis and William, Robert and Anita appeared to have had a secure and stable ten-year marriage. They held master degrees in education and were *190 teachers. They had two children, were expecting a third, and were more than willing to make a loving home for Joshua.
In resisting Janis' appeal, William asserts that the probative value of the Oregon report is affected by the fact it is hearsay. He does not contend that the court's ruling admitting the report was error. Therefore we need not determine whether the court erred in overruling his objection to it. The report is plainly hearsay. See In re Delaney, 185 N.W.2d 726, 730 (Iowa 1971). We do not decide whether authority for admissibility ofinterest that Janis be awarded his custody. Aside from Janis' relationship with Matty, the court was motivated in part by her unstable life-style for the first three years of Joshua's life. However, she introduced persuasive evidence that this problem was in the past and not likely to recur. She was little more than a child herself when those events occurred, and the record shows she matured considerably in the two or three years prior to trial. Parents are not to be denied custody for past indiscretions which do not demonstrate a present risk.
The remaining factor which influenced the court was the burden of Ezra's care. However, Ezra had undergone surgery which had the effect of making his care less demanding on Janis, and no evidence was offered to

Needless to say, the above tweet from the black-run collective Beer Kulture, a member of which recently spoke with The Takeout, captures the general public response to the beers, which rang as both tasteless and as ignorant of the still-omnipresent gang violence in America that remains too frequently monetized by people from outside the communities affected. Almost immediately, Mirage cancelled the release.
For its part, Mirage has begun the work of apologizing for what was immediately tagged as reckless appropriation. First came a response via the company’s Instagram...
...and then, later, a more formal apology from Mirage owner Michael Dempster, which at least demonstrates an understanding of how bad this

The influence of several factors on the activity of cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) transiently exposed to a room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) was studied. Presence of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD, prosthetic group of ChOx) during exposure to RTIL makes the procedure enzyme-friendly, while the use of RTIL (green reagent) makes it environmentally-friendly. Following exposure to RTIL and its subsequent removal, FAD becomes part of the molecular structure of the refolded protein (a molecular "wire"). This makes the procedure used here a molecular one. The factors studied were: FAD presence in RTIL during modification, water presence during exposure to RTIL, and ratio FAD:RTIL during "wiring". Performance parameters monitored were: enzyme activity before and after "wiring" (expressed as (dA/dt)/mg enzyme, and measured spectrophotometrically), peak current in

Petitioner testified that at that point "he took out the gun, pointed it above Piko's head and fired off a round into the air." According to Petitioner, he "was standing by the car right next to [Martin]. She was sitting on the driver's side. Paikai was moving to the front of the car by the headlights." Petitioner "testified that he took the gun and reached over the car and fired a single shot into Paikai's leg. [Petitioner] said he meant to shoot the leg and did not aim for the head or body."

As to Mark II, on direct examination, Petitioner testified that he went to Baskin Robbins with Martin in order to meet Daughter, Sennett, and Sennett's boyfriend,[14] later identified as John Kortz (Kortz). Petitioner had a gun in his possession that he was carrying ... with [him] everywhere." Petitioner entered Baskin Robbins, and saw Daughter, Sennett, and Kortz. He went up to Daughter and patted her on the back. Petitioner stated that as he was standing behind Daughter, who was sitting on a chair, he "pulled out [a] necklace and was going to put it around her neck."

He's using his left hand to grab [Petitioner's] right wrist area, and he was using his right hand to grab his left hand area, and then I was trying to grab his elbow area toโto restrain his right arm." Officer Sung stated that he was grabbing for Petitioner's right hand in order to stop Petitioner from "[r]eaching for any kind of weapons, possibly gun or possibly knife, possibly harming other people." Officer Sung went on to describe the struggle, stating that Petitioner "was trying to break free of us, our restraint, and then he was reaching something into his pocket."
Petitioner was then able to get his hand free to grab the gun, and Officerbeen justified in using deadly force: (1) Petitioner testified that since the incident in Mark I "he had been hearing threats against himself and Martin," (2) "[o]ne of the reasons why he did not turn himself in right away was because he was afraid of what would happen to Martin if she were left alone," (3) Petitioner "testified that, when he and Martin were being chased by Piko, he thought he saw one of the men holding a gun," and (4) "[t]he last time he saw Martin, she was by his side as he reached to put the necklace on [Daughter, and, i]n his mind, these were three large men, presumably friends of Piko and Paikai, who had gang tackled him without provocation."

with the HUD working but flickering. "Tohai!" he yelled out over his comms to the Sangheili who had also been hit from the explosion. However it was clear that his comms were no longer functioning.
Jastis had no time to look before the Captain rushed towards him again; Jastis taking a more defensive stance ran towards the Captain and dodged under their arm as they attacked so he was free on the other side. He looked for 'Tohai and saw him against the wall bloodied and bruised. He wanted to aid him, as any good Squad Leader would do, however with the situation on hand, there was little to no breathing room for him to aid the damaged Sangheili, however it was time he needed to admit help, howeveras soon as he went to open his comms he realized again that they were broken.
"Fuck!" he swore as he went back to engaging the enemy once again.
I could really use another person... but I need to draw attention from 'Tohai he thought to himself as he fired his gun and then went to reload and another deadly realization. He was out of ammo. Pulling out his secondary gun, his trusty Magnum he went back to engaging the foe. He dodged another hit from the Captain and fired his Magnum. Despite it being just a pistol, it was still quite deadly, although some have said it has gotten weaker with newer versions. Jastis didn't care so long as it did enough damage to bring down his foes.

Born in Danville, Ill., Van Dyke got his start in TV by making appearances on The Dick Van Dyke Show, the American sitcom that starred his real-life older brother. He also made appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show and The Judy Garland Show.
In 1965, he played Dave Crabtree in NBC series My Mother the Car, which ran for a single season.
He was best known for his role as Assistant Coach Luther Horatio Van Dam on the TV series Coach, which earned him four Emmy Award nominations. The series ran from 1989 to 1997.
Van Dyke spoke with USA TODAY in 1990 about one of his Emmy nominations, joking aboutwhether it marked a comeback in his career.
"Everybody talks about me making a comeback," he said. "I say, 'comeback from what?' This is as good as it's ever been."
He also spoke about his famous brother, who made an appearance on Coach the same year as his long-lost father.
"I was always known as Dick Van Dyke's brother and the guy that did My Mother the Car. Now people know me that never knew me before, that don't even know Dick. That's really a thrill," he said.
More recently, Van Dyke made several appearances as Tag Spence on the ABC series The Middle.

Trooper Davis ended up taking the driver into custody and having the car towed, which left Ross stranded in Ohio.
Ross explained what happened next when Ohio State Highway Patrol Sergeant David Robison arrived:
"I broke down crying and he saw the sincerity in my cry. He REACHES OVER AND BEGAN PRAYING OVER ME AND MY FAMILY. He offered to bring me 100 miles further to Detroit because they towed the vehicle. Everybody knows how much I dislike Cops but I am truly Greatful (sic) for this Guy. He gave me hope"

The classic Nintendo Famicom was a design masterpiece compared to the boxier version which regions outside of Japan got in the form of the NES. Around the time of its release, there was a bit of a trend for having combined CRT monitors incorporated into a gaming device, such as the Vectrex from 1982. Later, Apple would take the same design approach with its famous Macintosh home computer.
With this in mind, it is a bit of a treat to see how the Famicom could have looked in this kind of form factor. Swedish designer Love Hultén has allowed his imagination to run wild and has come up with the FC-PVM – a beautiful work of art which combines a Famicom with a Sony Trinitron

Curling, as practised in Canada: with remarks on the History of the Game. This was published in 1840. Bicket writes, "Round the tee, two or more circular lines are drawn, the largest having a diameter of about five feet, the others smaller and at intermediate distances. The space within the largest circle is called the 'brough'. The use of the circular lines is to shew, while the game is being played, the comparative nearness of the stones to the tee; actual measurement not being allowed until all the stones have been played to one end of the rink." Note that Bicket refers to the 'brough' being the space within the largest circle, and not to the circle itself. However, this did not define a 'counting area'.
Illustrations of broughshave been as simple as a length of string. But some clubs had large dividers like those above, preserved at the Fife Folk Museum in Ceres, as an elegant solution for making the measurements. Exactly when these were in use is not known, but John Cairnie used similar at Largs in the early years of the nineteenth century.
As curling moved indoors, colouring the circles became possible. But that's another story!
The top illustration is a screenshot from a World Curling Federation video of the recent CPT World Women's Curling Championship 2017. The diagram of the rink is from the 1854-55 Annual of the Royal Caledonian Curling Club. The tee-ringing image is from History of Curling, by the Reverend John Kerr, as is the Charles Altamont Doyle vignette. The Troon

TCU's Ed Wesley was quietly a big reason for the Frogs' run to the Rose Bowl, and he wasn't the only under-the-radar star from last season. Olin Buchanan looks at 10 guys who were overlooked in 2010 but could break out this season in his weekly mailbag.[details]
Notes: Has a son. Four-year letterman in football, baseball, basketball and track and field. Boasts a mid-90s fastball and contemplated playing baseball at TCU. As a true freshman in 2007, played in all 13 games and caught nine balls for 97 yards (10.8-yard average) and zero touchdowns. In '08, played in 11 games (two starts in three-receiver sets) and caught 11-95-0 (8.6) with 25 rushes for 143 yards (5.7) and three TDs. Also returned 25 punts for 348 yards (13.9). Dealt withto top speed in three steps. Pops out of breaks and can create separation on short-to-intermediate routes. Good hands to pluck throws outside his body. Effective in space and makes plays with the ball in his hands - agile and creative with good short-area burst after the catch. Impact return man - shows vision, burst and elusiveness. Good production.
Negatives: Undersized with short arms. Needs to improve functional strength (limited run strength). Durability could be an issue. Lacks an extra gear to separate vertically or pull away from the pack as a returner. Occasional concentration drops, and fumbled 10 times in his career. Underpowered blocker. Played in a spread offense with a limited route tree and was not challenged by top-notch cornerbacks. Modest production as a receiver.
Summary: Small-framed, more-quick-than-fast

who was performing abortions at the Center, was contacted by Dr. Palmer as a result of the letter sent to Dr. Palmer by Dr. Mohammad. Dr. Palmer advised Dr. Whaley that it might be in Dr. Whaley's best interest to discontinue practicing at the Center. Dr. Whaley terminated his services at the Center after the defendants wrote their letter to Dr. Thompson. Dr. Whaley testified that his main reason for quitting was because of the controversy surrounding the Center, but also because of the question of adequate backup services.
14. One Dr. Rhett, also a resident doctor in the Jacksonville hospital, worked at the Center one time during mid-September of 1975. He testified that he did not go back to the Center after the letter sent by the defendantsto Dr. Thompson, because he was not told who was providing back-up service and because he felt threatened as a young physician by the controversy surrounding the Center.
15. Dr. Max Suter, director of a Jacksonville, Florida abortion clinic, called Dr. Mohammad during August of 1975 concerning the controversy over the Center. Dr. Suter knows Dr. Mohammad personally. At his deposition, taken on January 20, 1976, and filed in this court on February 6, 1976, Dr. Suter testified that, during his phone conversation with Dr. Mohammad about the Center, Dr. Mohammad stated that "his main opposition at the beginning seemed to be that they (the Center) were financially embarrassing his (Dr. Mohammad's) operation to do abortions in his office."

BARCELONA, Spain -- Pep Guardiola has admitted he tried to sign Barcelona's Marc-Andre ter Stegen in the summer before eventually signing his teammate Claudio Bravo.
But the Manchester City boss denied reports that he had tried to take four of his former Barca players to the Etihad in the summer, including Lionel Messi.
Guardiola wanted a new goalkeeper at the Etihad Stadium, who was comfortable with the ball at his feet and looked to the Nou Camp where Ter Stegen and Bravo were sharing their duties as a No. 1.
Ter Stegen was Barcelona's cup keeper, featuring in the Blaugrana's Champions League and Copa del Rey campaigns while Bravo played in La Liga matches.
The German international had previously indicated splitting time with Bravo was not in his best interest, but decidedto stay with the Catalan club and is now fist choice for European and La Liga games after the Chilean keeper's exit.
"I knew that [Ter Stegen] wanted to play all the time and I got in touch with him," Guardiola told a news conference ahead of City's Champions League with Barca on Wednesday.
"We needed a keeper like Claudio or Ter Stegen -- we got Claudio and Ter Stegen stayed."
However, the Catalan insisted he had not tried to sign any other players from the club he managed for four years, despite reports in Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo claiming he wanted Messi, Luis Suarez, Neymar and Sergio Busquets.
Guardiola said he hopes that Messi plays his entire career at Barcelona, but said there would be huge interest from the Premier League

and her husband, the appellant, Anthony Dale Crawford ("Crawford") would be wanted for her murder.
The Powers had a "very close" relationship with their daughter and saw her frequently. Sarah and her mother talked on the phone often. During dinner, Sarah told her parents of the latest events in her life, including her job as an office manager for a television production company. Sarah mentioned to her mother that she had a hair appointment on Saturday and that, on Saturday afternoon, she had plans to go to a concert with a man she recently met. Sarah was, according to her mother, "really very happy" that night.
Sarah had every reason to be happy. She had a good job with a small, close-knit company that she enjoyed and found fulfilling. Shehad gastric bypass surgery in the summer of 2002 and reached her goal of losing one hundred and fifty pounds. In addition, Sarah had just gotten a raise and moved into her own apartment. And, most significantly, Sarah had recently decided to end her relationship with her abusive husband, Crawford.
Sarah and Crawford had been married since 1999, and had been together for several years before that. The couple had a troubled history, and Sarah was growing increasingly fearful of her husband. In October *560 of 2004, Sarah and Crawford separated. Following their separation, Sarah expressed to a number of friends and co-workers that she was afraid that Crawford might physically harm her. This concern caused Sarah to make a number of significant changes in her life. Sarah found

followed them for about a mile to make sure that they got away safely.
Following her encounter with Crawford at the apartment, Sarah went to the Prince William County Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court (the "JDR court") and requested a preliminary protective order in order to prevent Crawford from having any further contact with her. In the affidavit for preliminary protective order (hereinafter "the affidavit"), which Sarah signed, she recounted past incidents in which Crawford forcibly raped her, threatened her life, and physically and verbally abused her. In the affidavit, Sarah also stated
[o]n October 30, 2004, [Crawford] called me and told me that I must want to die. He also said he understands why husbands kill their wives. He told me that he would find me and wouldthat she was supposed to ship that box for him. The box had a small amount of Sarah's blood on it. Later that day, the Powers received a telephone call from a person who found Sarah's cell phone lying in the grass near his driveway in Manassas.[4] Worried for their daughter's well-being, the Powers made the first of several trips to Sarah's apartment that evening. When they arrived, Sarah and her car were gone, and the apartment was dark. The only sign of life in the apartment was Sarah's pet cat, which came to the glass door and cried.
On the morning of Saturday, November 20, 2004, the Powers went back to Sarah's apartment. Sarah's car was still missing, and her cat was still at the door, crying. Mrs.

example, the preliminary protective order itself, admitted without objection, stated that a court had previously found "evidence sufficient to establish probable cause that family abuse, including forceful detention, resulting in physical injury to [Mrs. Crawford] or placing [her] in reasonable apprehension of serious bodily injury," had "recently occurred." Mrs. Crawford's father testified that appellant threw a table into the room and broke it when he accompanied his daughter to the marital home to remove her belongings. Her father also testified that appellant threatened his daughter. A police officer, who had responded to the couple's home when Mrs. Crawford was moving out, testified that appellant's manner was intimidating and overbearing and that Mrs. Crawford asked appellant if he was threatening her. Mrs. Crawford's boss and a co-worker both testifiedabout their knowledge of her fear of appellant. Her boss testified that he was not surprised to learn about the protective order against appellant, given the "history between them."[29] Thus, the affidavit's allegations of general violence and threats were merely cumulative of the other evidence presented by the Commonwealth.
In addition, appellant admitted that he shot his wife, although he claimed he shot her accidentally. However, appellant then covered up this "accident." He threw both her cell phone and a box that had her blood on it out of the car. Rather than taking his wife to a hospital, he left her alone in a motel room in Charlottesville, Virginia, many miles from her home and family. If she was alive when appellant left her in that room, Mrs.

Syracuse, N.Y. — Exactly 60 years after earning them, the Syracuse Nationals got their true reward on Friday night in the War Memorial.
Three players from the squad finally received championship rings in a ceremony put on by the Syracuse Crunch prior to its game against Bridgeport.
Dolph Schayes, Bill Kenville and Jim Tucker, as well as family members of Paul Seymour, Earl Lloyd and Bill Gabor, were honored at center ice. The guests thought the ceremony had ended when Crunch owner Howard Dolgon took the microphone to announce he had one more gift. Crunch captain Mike Angelidis handed out the baubles.
When the Nats won the title in 1955, their mementos were ice buckets.
The Nats players and family members also received small pieces of the original War Memorial court onwhich they clinched the title, which had been stored in the building's basement.
The three former Nats were each escorted to center ice by Crunch players. Joey Mormina skated with Tucker, Jonathan Marchessault helped Kenville and J.P. Cote escorted Schayes.
"It was pretty awesome to see them still in Syracuse, where it all started for them,'' Marchessault said. "I'm sure it was pretty amazing for them at that time. It's just fun to see that they come back and give it back to Syracuse too.''
Both teams and coaching staffs enjoyed the festivities from their respective benches, tapping their sticks in appreciation.
Brian McIntyre, the NBA's senior communications advisor to the commissioner, was also on hand to congratulate the players. McIntyre noted how special it was for players in a different sport

Moving forward, expect Ellison to ramp up the trash talk on rivals such as SAP and IBM.
SAP, for one, seems ready to take off the gloves, and not just against Oracle. "This partnership ends any vestige of Salesforce's claims of independence from [Oracle]," SAP spokesman James Dever said via email. "All the past squabbling about false clouds and keynotes now appears as sincere as a professional wrestling match. The kid was just rebelling against his parents to appear cool."

Published: October 26, 2011
It’s the end of the road for the young men of The Buried Life. MTV has cancelled the show after two seasons on the air, reports EW.
The TV series follows “four regular guys on a mission to complete a list of ‘100 Things To Do Before You Die’ and to help and encourage others to go after their own lists.” Episode highlights include the boys making a toast at a wedding, learning to krump, playing basketball with President Obama, tell a joke on late night television, help deliver a baby, and sneak into the Playboy Mansion.
Sources say that the quartet (Jonnie Penn, Duncan Penn, Ben Nemtin, and Dave Lingwood) and MTV may still work together to find

Ugo Foscolo, original name Niccolò Foscolo (born February 6 [January 26, Greek calendar], 1778, Zacynthus, Venetian republic [now Zákinthos, Greece]—died September 10, 1827, Turnham Green, near London, England) poet and novelist whose works articulate the feelings of many Italians during the turbulent epoch of the French Revolution, the Napoleonic Wars, and the restoration of Austrian rule; they rank among the masterpieces of Italian literature.

Alinari/Art Resource, New York
Foscolo, born of a Greek mother and a Venetian father, was educated at Spalato (now Split, Croatia) and Padua, in Italy, and moved with his family to Venice about 1793. There he moved in literary circles. In 1797 the performance of his tragedy Tieste (“Thyestes”) made himin many love affairs.
Finally Foscolo was sent to serve in France (1804–06). During that period he translated some classical works and Laurence Sterne’sSentimental Journey into Italian and wrote odes and sonnets.
In 1807 Foscolo returned to Milan and established his literary reputation with “Dei sepolcri” (Eng. trans., “Of the Sepulchres,” c. 1820), a patriotic poem in blank verse, written as a protest against Napoleon’s decree forbidding tomb inscriptions. In 1808 the poem won for its author the chair of Italian rhetoric at the University of Pavia. When the chair was abolished by Napoleon the next year, Foscolo moved on to Milan. The satirical references to Napoleon in his tragedy Aiace (first performed 1811; “Ajax”) again brought suspicion on him; in 1812 he moved to Florence, where he wrote another

his success and advancement for the achievement of the object for which he had been commissioned. This fact can very well be confirmed by what she said.
We have already referred to Waraqah in the foregoing pages and have mentioned that he was one of the sages of Arabia. It was a long time since he had embraced Christianity after studying the Injeel and was an eminent person in his own field. He was Khadijah's cousin.
The Holy Prophet's dear wife related to Waraqah what she had heard from her honourable husband. Waraqah, after hearing Khadijah, replied to his cousin: "Your cousin (i.e. the Holy Prophet) is a truthful man, and what he has met with is the commencement of prophethood and Jibreel has descended upon him".
The events, which wethe introduction of his book wherein he has said that a group of persons have, on account of enmity or attachment, introduced falsehoods in the biography of the Holy Prophet, has also himself recorded matters which are decidedly incorrect, although some Shi'ah scholars, like the late Tabarsi, had given useful warnings in this regard. 6
We reproduce here some of these false stories (though it would not at all have been necessary to mention them if the ignorant friends or the cunning enemies had not published them in their books)
When the Holy Prophet entered Khadijah's house he was thinking that possibly his eyes had made a mistake or that he had become a soothsayer! Khadijah, however, dispelled his misgivings by saying that he was helpful to the orphans and

Equifax penetration test and audit reports by outside cybersecurity firms," according to Bloomberg.
To top it all off, Equifax has behaved horribly in the wake of the breach. Its website to help consumers was broken, Equifax itself sent the public to the wrong website that was a fake phishing site set up by a white-hat hacker and the company quietly disappeared its apps from both the Apple App and Google Play Stores.
But when the male-dominated discussions about infosec heard about Ms. Mauldin's degree in music, it was decided that she was a suitable target for their rage, with some well-deserved anger at Equifax as the catalyst. The hate was visible on Twitter, Reddit and Slashdot and put into press by MarketWatch's Brett Arends (a history major himself). He wrote,
WhenCongress hauls in Equifax CEO Richard Smith to grill him, it can start by asking why he put someone with degrees in music in charge of the company's data security. And then they might also ask him if anyone at the company has been involved in efforts to cover up Susan Mauldin's lack of educational qualifications since the data breach became public.
This thinking begins to look unqualified, and worse, in light of the Berkeley report. Lead researcher Mathew told us, "I spoke with CISOs and senior engineers at large Silicon Valley firms who both did and didn't have degrees."
He explained that among those who even had degrees, those with degrees outside of computer science outnumbered those with a degree in CS. "For many of the positions which they

Over Labor Day weekend, hundreds of thousands of people in Florida, Georgia and South Carolina – more than 800,000 in South Carolina alone – were ordered to evacuate amid fears Dorian could bring life-threatening storm-surge flooding (depicted above) even if the hurricane's center stays offshore, as forecast
A hurricane warning is still in effect for parts of Florida, including Titusville (depicted above)
Forecasters also released this map of areas where power outages are 'possible' and 'likely' (depicted above)
As of 4pm Tuesday afternoon, most of Florida appeared to sit outside of the predicted path Hurricane Dorian is expected to take

WhileTuesday, it said in a statement.
Over Labor Day weekend, hundreds of thousands of people in Florida, Georgia and South Carolina – more than 800,000 in South Carolina alone – were ordered to evacuate amid fears Dorian could bring life-threatening storm-surge flooding even if the hurricane's center stays offshore, as forecast.
In South Carolina, the major Interstate 26 road was turned into a one-way evacuation route away from Charleston on the coast, and Georgia governor Brian Kemp likewise planned to reverse lanes on I-16 on Tuesday to increase the flow of traffic away from the danger zone.
Kemp said: 'We’re taking the "better safe than sorry" attitude.'
Dorian was tied with Gilbert (1988), Wilma (2005) and the 1935 Labor Day hurricane for the second-strongest Atlantic hurricane on record, based on maximum sustained

sales partners established over many years ensure that the company remains close to its customers and always has its finger on the pulse of the market. A large research and development department in Germany and an R&D office in California guarantee that the company maintains the technical lead that it has always enjoyed. A large number of patents and awards, including an Oscar, an Emmy, a Grammy and two German Industry Innovation Awards, are evidence of Sennheiser's innovative power.[Chromosome variability in grape (Vitis amurensis Rupr.) cells transformed with plant oncogene rolB].
The numbers of chromosomes and nucleoli in cultured cells of Vitis amurensis transformed with the rolB oncogene from A. rhizogenes have been studied. In general, the integration of the rolB gene in grape DNA mostly caused the elevation of the level of the chromosome variability, as well as higher numbers of nucleoli in the cultured cells. The possible influence of the observed chromosomal modifications on the productivity parameters of the grape cell cultures is discussed.

looks at Carrel's response to these difficulties, how he attempted to propagate the scientific principles of his wound treatment at a specially-appointed War Demonstration Hospital in New York City. This final section draws out the contrast between concepts of skill specific to the pedagogical practices of scientific management and those fathomed by Carrel, showing the latter to be rooted in older surgical traditions of spectatorship, apprenticeship, and direct demonstration.[^9^](#fnr9){ref-type="fn"}
2.. The Carrel--Dakin Method {#s2}
============================
Late in 1916, the French surgeon and scientist Alexis Carrel received a congratulatory notice from the former President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt, regarding his work on the treatment of infected wounds. Evident in Roosevelt's praise was much of the optimism and anxiety that underpinned the American predicament in the early decades of the twentiethat regular four-day intervals, tracing the area onto transparent cellophane with a wax pencil. The cellophane drawings were then reproduced on a sheet of paper from which the area of the wound (S) and the area of the wound and the cicatrix (S and C) were estimated in square centimetres by means of the planimeter. Carrel obtained the daily rate (R) of cicatrisation by dividing the differences of two consecutive surface estimates by the time elapsed between each observation. In this way, Carrel explained, he could ascertain the size of the wound, the size of the cicatrix, and the rate or 'velocity' of wound repair. He was further able to examine the relations between the size of a wound and the rate of cicatrisation. From Alexis Carrel and

Mattis, just that he is not in the inner decision-making circle anymore. The official said Mattis does not contradict the president publicly or in the media and does not draw the president's ire.
Asked for comment on NBC's reporting, chief Pentagon spokesperson Dana White said, "This is pure silliness."
On behalf of the White House, National Security Council spokesman Garrett Marquis said, "For an unnamed expert to claim a department is not in the loop is ludicrous."

Mattis has influenced some key decisions. He was among the advisers last summer who convinced Trump to keep U.S. troops in Afghanistan. He kept Trump from ditching the Iran nuclear deal formore than a year after taking office. This past April, when Trump wanted to withdraw U.S. troops from Syria, Mattis convinced him to agree — reluctantly — to keep them there to finish the fight against ISIS.
But a second former senior White House official said Mattis doesn't spend much time with the president, and is really only with him for meetings. "[Trump] respected 'Mad Dog Mattis' and thought he was tough," the official said. "But they were never especially close."
Early in the administration it was common for the men to speak on the phone several times per day, but that also has changed, according to a senior defense official.
And a broader shift in the relationship between the president and his defense secretary has occurred during the past six

months. It began in earnest when Trump decided in December to move the U.S. embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, White House and defense officials said. Mattis opposed the move, saying it would heighten security concerns in the region.
The list of policy decisions Trump has made against Mattis's advice or without his knowledge has since grown. It includes not just withdrawing from the Iran nuclear deal and ordering the Pentagon to create a so-called space force, but also barring transgender people from serving openly in the military and a host of moves the president has made as part of negotiations with North Korea, say multiple current and former officials.
Mattis was against Trump deploying the National Guard to the border. When Trump raised the issue with him,Mattis told the president he didn't think it was a good idea but that such a move wasn't under his control as defense secretary, according to one current and one former official.
"[Mattis] didn't feel like the mission was well defined," said a senior White House official.
Trump signed a proclamation in April authorizing the deployment of state National Guard forces to protect the border.
In May, according to two officials familiar with the matter, Mattis learned Trump had made a decision on the Iran deal only after it was finalized. Bolton had made the case for dropping the deal directly to the president in the Oval Office rather than in a meeting with the national security team, as is typical for such decisions.

Fastest boy: Jack Hale, Tasmanian sprint sensation, sets new 100m record for under 18s in Australia
ANOTHER inter-school carnival, another Australian and Tasmanian 100m record for Hobart’s 16-year-old long jump and sprinting sensation Jack Hale.
Last month the St Virgils student broke the Tasmanian open and Australian under 18 100m records, as well as becoming the fastest under 17 athlete in the world, with a blistering 10.44-second run at the Southern SATIS athletics carnival.
At yesterday’s state SATIS carnival, Hale proved to any doubters in Tasmanian and Australian athletics that he is the real deal as he produced another record-breaking run of 10.42 seconds, to take out the under 16 boys 100m.
Hale, who finished in front of Hutchins’ Russel Taib, was only aided by a 0.7m per second tailwind, which meantTax Court held that the estate had failed to prove that the agreement by the deceased that gave rise to the claim was an agreement supported by full and adequate consideration, as required by law.

At the same time, the reappearance of two different, unrelated, relations in the place where one tries to get one to work for all would then succeed in showing something of the split "ontological difference" which cannot there (despite the new possibilities opened up by a "parricide" which yet remains Eleatic) be explicitly affirmed. system.
