The president made clear in his address to the nation from the Oval Office that he is determined to confront this crisis at the border now by offering noble, commonsense solutions that the professionals on the border are asking for.
President Trump’s remarks were straightforward and to the point. Women and children are most harmed by this humanitarian crisis on our southern border. This is not a manufactured crisis or waste of money, as the Democratic leaders inFlevoland (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈfleːvoːlɑnt](listen)) is the twelfth and last province of the Netherlands, established on 1 January 1986, when the southern and eastern Flevopolders were merged into one provincial entity. It is located in the centre of the country, where the former Zuiderzee was. Almost all of the land belonging to Flevoland was reclaimed only in the 1950s and 1960s.[2] The province has about 407,905 inhabitants (2016[update]) and consists of 6 municipalities. Its capital is Lelystad and most populous city Almere.
After a flood in 1916, it was decided that the Zuiderzee, an inland sea within the Netherlands, would be enclosed and reclaimed: the Zuiderzee Works started. Other sources[3] indicate other times and reasons, but also agree that in 1932, the Afsluitdijk was completed, which closed off the sea

Interpersonal violence among the Chalcolithic and Bronze Ages inhabitants living on the Central Plateau of Iran: A voice from Tepe Hissar.
The site of Tepe Hissar (Iran) experienced widespread cultural and economic changes during the Chalcolithic and Bronze Ages (5th to the 2nd millennium B.C.). The discovery of evidence of burning, including charred human remains, the destruction of buildings (Periods II and III), and the presence of several mass-burials with comingling of human skeletal remains consisting of ten or more individuals (Period III), suggests interpersonal violence during these periods. The original excavator of Tepe Hissar, Erich Schmidt, suggested that phenomena such as war, massacres, epidemics, or similar catastrophes, may have been responsible for the excavated archaeological evidence. This study tests the hypothesis that interpersonal violence was responsible for thisthe Milltown haunt, that includes three other NHLers from Meadow Lake, but manager Darcy Friesen said that if Dwight brings a Kings sweater back home this summer, they will be more than pleased to find some wall space.
"There is a buzz here with Dwight and the Kings playing so well," said Friesen, a distant relative to Jeff Friesen, whose New Jersey Devils' sweater hangs inside the Milltown beside D.J.'s St. Louis Blues' jersey, and one from Blake Comeau's days with the New York Islanders.
"I know when I come in here for breakfast people are talking about Dwight. They come in here specifically to watch the games, too. It has been exciting."
King has been a big contributor to the Kings' playoff success. He has five goals in 12 games,

identified, and concluded that national service "cannot provide the needed, immediate relief for the growing problems of the All-Volunteer Force." He dismissed higher compensation: "Pay and recruiting proposals are very expensive and would dramatically increase manpower costs."
Finally,
he commented that although "peacetime registration would make a
significant improvement in our mobilization capabilities . . . registration
alone will not solve the problems of the All-Volunteer Force."
Although elsewhere he has stated "I believe the All-Volunteer Force
(AVF) may be a luxury that the United States can no longer afford,"
[2] he has been careful not to
go on record explicitly advocating the restoration of military conscription.
But many in Washington regard him as one of the foremost congressional
forces pressing for some sort of draft. What other alternative is there?
The fundamental alternatives, of course, are only two:draft between the draftees
and the career force personnel who were referred to disparagingly
as "lifers." The career force has always been volunteers
and generally is more interested in patriotism. Nor is it clear that
the low pay given to enlisted personnel during the draft era contributed
to the development of any patriotic sentiment on their part. . . .
To a large extent, military service should build patriotism, not start
with it. In peacetime that is more difficult than during a war of
national survival, such as World War II, but it is occurring on a
daily basis. All of the evidence indicates that today's active force
will stand up to any enemy and today's reserve force is perhaps more
highly motivated and dedicated than any draft-motivated reserve in
history. But overt patriotism is generally played down in today's
society

The Heat continue to have their way with the Magic (18-42), taking all three meetings this season by an average of 15.3 points. James has posted relatively pedestrian numbers in those games, averaging 19.3 points while shooting 45.9 percent - his second-lowest mark against any team in 2013-14.
Dwyane Wade, meanwhile, has scored 27.8 points per game versus Orlando for his highest average against any opponent. He's averaged 23.5 in the last two meetings, well above his season mark of 18.9.
The Magic had dropped a franchise worst-tying 16 consecutive road games before winning 101-90 at lowly Philadelphia on Wednesday. Nikola Vucevic had 21 points and 13 rebounds, Victor Oladipo added 17 and 11 and Jameer Nelson scored 16 to go alongBACKERS START NEW BID TO EXPAND BOCA LIBRARY
Tired of putting up with crowding and inadequate shelf space, a group of patrons is launching a campaign in itscontinued fight to expand the cramped facility.
The members are venturing onto touchy political ground. Boca Raton residents turned down a referendum last year to spend $12.5 million to double the size of the library.
That was "Word War I."
Supporting a more modest proposal, the patrons will pound the pavement, and develop a series of public meetings to tout the library's role in the community.
"We think it's one of the underestimated jewels of Boca Raton," said Ralph Kulberg, president of the Friends of the Boca Raton Public Library.
The group faces two sizeable hurdles: economics and politics.

That's the issue.
On the other hand, it has given the Giants as an organization the opportunity to respond in a classy and confident manner, and they have done so, primarily with Tuck's comments and silence from most of the players (Snee did have a small funny jab at Mathews--as in "obviously Mathews chose the wrong game to not show up").
The Giants were the better team, hands down.

MAY 17, 2007 marked the end of a veteran’s life. A dark cloud had fallen over Namibia and the Kabajani family in particular. It is a day that will go down in the history of the family and nation with the fondest memories of sorrow and sadness at the loss of a special son, friend, brother, father, uncle and indeed a hero of the Namibian struggle for freedom and independence of our motherland Namibia.
Kapelwa Richard Kabajani was the first man from the Zambezi Region to be appointed a Minister in the Swapo Party-led government after independence. He was the first man from the same region to be appointed Ambassador and the first to be accorded hero status and

The episode bears the distinction of being one of the most heavily cut episodes during the syndication run of Star Trek. In all, a total of twelve scenes were omitted during syndication, mainly:
Extended scene of the landing party beaming down for the first time.
Comments from McCoy that the planet contains "the most horribleconglomeration of antique architecture" that he has ever seen
An extended fight between Kirk and the first Grup creature.
The landing party hearing a noise in the street, running to investigate, and passing a building labeled as Bartlett Stables.
Additional scenes of Spock and the security guards looking around the streets and eventually coming to an alley.
Reactions from Miri after hearing about the Life prolongation project, implying that she knows what it is and what has happened on her planet; in the syndicated version, there is no indication that the children understand what has happened on their world.
Longer discussions between Kirk and Spock about scientific calculations in order to understand the adult disease.

That was the pronouncement, within the first pages of Hitless Wonder: A Life in Minor League Rock and Roll (Lyons Press), that changed the life of the author Joe Oestreich forever. It's not an uncommon story, for there are lots and lots of rock bands playing in venues in every town in America. Colin Gawel and Joe Oestreich were the best of friends then, thirteen years old and coming home from a Cheap Trick concert. They are best of friends still.

'Determining the poverty line is one of the duties of the Welfare Ministry, but this ministry has yet to fulfill its obligations,' Majlis representative Sirous Borna Boldaji, who is on the legislature's social affairs committee, told Farda News (close to Tehran Mayor Ghalibaf and not to be confused with Radio Farda). 'Previously it was said that the poverty line was 900,000 toumans, but it is currently being declared that it is 500,000 toumans. Meanwhile, the Welfare Ministry doesn't accept either one of these statistics.'
A lack of hard figures has not prevented government officials from maintaining an optimistic outlook.

A fortune teller with customers from throughout Westchester and Fairfield has been charged for allegedly bilking a Bedford Hills woman out of her life savings by convincing her that she had been cursed in a past life as a "great" Egyptian miracle worker.
After receiving and investigating a complaint from the woman, Bedford Police detectives arrested 44-year-old Janet Lee of Scarsdale, also known as "the Bedford Psychic" and the "Greenwich Psychic."
She was charged with third-degree grand larceny, a Class D felony. She was subsequently arraigned and released on her own recognizance.
Other complaints have been received in Greenwich and Mount Pleasant regarding Lee’s business, according to Bedford Police. She also has an open case in Mount Pleasant regarding similar charges.
The Bedford Hills woman, 64, turned to Lee in June, sayingat the training camp, what sights seem to soothe Pauls mind? what thoughts does paul have as he observes the russian prisoners of war?

Paul seems to get much pleasure from nature at the training camp. At this camp, Paul feels rather alone, he doesn't have his friends with him. He spends his time musing about natural beauty in the midst of most unnatural warfare. Paul rests his mind in, "The grasses and the flowers of the heather...the fine sand (that) is composed of millions of the tiniest pebbles...but most beautiful are the woods with their line of birch trees". THe Russian prisoners represent the dehumanizing waste of war. Paul feels sorry for them. They have become hollow men, they have given up. They live, more or less, in

grows and showed that we can capture the entire range of egg shapes observed in nature," said Mahadevan.
The variations of shape come from the variation in the membrane's thickness and material properties and the ratio of the differential pressure to the stretchiness of the membrane.
The next question is, how are these forms related to the function of the bird?
The researchers looked at correlations between egg shape and traits associated with the species of bird, including nest type and location, clutch size (the number of eggs laid at a time), diet and flight ability.
"We discovered that flight may influence egg shape," said lead author Mary Caswell Stoddard, Assistant Professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Princeton University and former Junior Fellow in the Harvard Society of Fellows. "To maintainas the men entered the final minutes of regulation.
Two minutes later, Williams earned a free corner kick. Peter Christman ’13 took it from the left side, and his kick arced over the box, dipping at the back post. Bernstein came off his line to clear the ball, but he could only get a hand on the cross. Doug Weinrib ’13, coming off the bench, was in a fortuitous position for the Ephs. He connected with the ball on the far side of the six, sliding the ball into the net in the 83rd minute to lift the Ephs to a 2-1 advantage.

stopped by his office to check up on a simulation he had running... he didn't expect to have a chance to do so later. He was heading for Gerhard's office nearby to give him some instruction on how to massage the code for further work when he heard Melissa's voice eagerly expounding something involving supers, and even Photon.
Frowning slightly, Jon listened. Something about how Photon's battles with Enigma, Technoid, and Hybrid proved something about his solar identity? He went in. "Hey Jerry, Melissa. How's it going?" Melissa started as if at a gunshot. "Oh, uh, hi, Dr. Winters. Wow, I just remembered I have to get going!" She hurried out.
Jon looked after her. "Jerry... Have I offended Melissa somehow recently? She seems really abrupt and jumpy around meinto the round holes if they can't find round pegs. Did you know that before supers started emerging, big sports stars were sometimes called 'heroes'?"
Jon paused, chewing on that. "Huh. Really? What sort of villains were they supposed to be fighting?" "The other team, I guess?" "Weird. Sounds like she's really put some thought into this, though." "Yeah, she has. Anyway, I've got some preliminary results on that Calabi-Yau sim..." "Oh! Right, and I wanted you to tweak this routine..." After discussing business with Jerry, Jon slipped out, chuckling a bit as he pondered Melissa's theory a bit more.

land that remained was called "Extra Place". The great Vanishing New York blog provided a couple of priceless pictures of Extra Place in the '70s, and a long-lost 1952 interview of a man who worked in a garage that was on the corner at the time. He reminisced about a speakeasy that used to be there that he loved to frequent in the '20s. I also found a great shot of the ally in 1934. Extra Place, in what some would call it's heyday, was the back door of the Palace Bar of the Palace Hotel flophouse, which later became Hilly's on the Bowery, which later became CBGB & OMFUG. Country Blue Grass Blues & Other Music For Uplifting Gourmandizers reluctantly started allowing bands like Blondie and theits strange to see part of the Freedom Tower for real instead of just in CGI. (Forgive me, nobody is calling it the "Freedom Tower" anymore, either. That was just one of those terms that seemed to stir people's emotions shortly after 9/11, but nobody wants to call the building that FOREVER. World Trade Center 1 is a better fit.) That area remained a giant construction site for years, though. Like so many other places in the city, it was an inconvenient eye sore that stayed put while bureaucracy took over. But this September 11th will be the ten year anniversary, so suddenly everyone's rushing to get at least the memorial finished.

Ferguson got her hopes up. "It was like when you strike a match and it bursts into flame — that's how I felt," she says. She excitedly wrote to the woman on Facebook, sending a "rambling message with many typos," she says. "I sounded crazy!"
The woman said shespotting a "Lynn Bailey" on Facebook who lived in Gainesville, FL. Summers felt her heart race: Perhaps this woman had just dropped the "Rae" from her name. She dashed off a note to her.
"She immediately told me off," Summers says. "She said, 'I'm not sure what your game is, but I am not interested!' " So Summers explained herself. "I had to talk fast," she says.
Bailey decided to give the stranger a chance. She said she had indeed been adopted, and she knew she might have siblings. She had once tried to find them through an ancestry site, but hadn't known enough about her history to get anywhere.
Ferguson then connected with Bailey on Facebook, her hopes up once again. She wrote, I think you might be my sister.

President Trump is eager to hold a formal bilateral meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin at a G20 summit in Germany next month, to the dismay of top advisers at the State Department and National Security Council, The Associated Press reports. And Trump's refusal to acknowledge that Russia interfered in the 2016 election is causing consternation in Congress, among government officials, and even some Trump supporters, Maggie Haberman says at The New York Times. All 17 U.S. intelligence agencies concur that Russia hacked and released Democratic emails to help Trump win, and there is a growing body of reporting on the other ways Russia tried to interfere in the election.
Trump and some of his advisers want a full meeting with Putin, with all the diplomatic trappings and photos,to explain, Haberman reports, "but aides and friends say the matter hits him where he is most vulnerable. Mr. Trump, who often conflates himself with the institutions he serves, sees questions about Russia as an effort by Democrats and stragglers from the 'Never Trump' movement to delegitimize his election victory." You can read more about Trump, Russia, and Trump's flummoxed advisers at AP and The New York Times. Peter Weber

Saving Word brought her out of that spiritual darkness and into the Light of Truth!
In 2003, as a frequent guest on live radio with such well respected hosts as Jeff Cavins and Teresa Tomeo, Sharon began warning others of the dangers of counter-Christian secular influence and false New Age doctrine - the very same ideologies that are now being heavily promoted by Oprah Winfrey, in teachings such as: A Course in Miracles, The Secret, the "Law of Attraction" philosophy of "Abraham-Hicks", and Author, Eckhart Tolle's A New Earth. Sharon has also been a guest speaker for many Church organizations and gatherings, including three chapters of the international "Magnificat" ministry for Catholic Women.
Now a certified Catholic catechist, a novice with the Holy Family Institute, and a regular guest onCatholic Answers Live Radio, Sharon's powerful message is currently heard world-wide via their global broadcast through EWTN. Using stories drawn from her own personal experiences, and those of her former students, (she was a dedicated Course in Miracles devotee, and became known as an "Abraham Ambassador" teaching "Law of Attraction" workshops) Sharon gives an eye-witness account of the devastation that often follows when the New Thought Movement's most poisonous principles are applied in every day life.
In 2008, Catholic Answers recorded her 3 hour interview with renowned apologist, Jimmy Akin, entitled, "Oprah: Televangelist of New Age Deception" to help spread the word.
Her message is very timely as these infectious ideologies are spreading rapidly and contaminating much of our culture's worldview. Sharon warns that, if they are not countered, corruption

[Hawkins].
42
The first firm evidence implicating Hawkins in Tampa Outlaws drug dealing dates from the summer of 1980, when Hawkins drove Owens to Detroit in his Lincoln for a two-week trip to peddle cocaine and quaaludes. In recounting the story of this trip, Owens admitted that he was having difficulty remembering dates. He could remember when the Detroit trip occurred only by recalling that "the cherries were ripe in Detroit at the time." Detective Grady Snyder of the Tampa Police Department, who had monitored Outlaw activities since 1976, stated that he first heard that Hawkins was in the Tampa area in September 1980. Although Hawkins told Paul Clendening in 1981 that he, J.J. Hall and Harrell were partners in cocaine dealing, the recordestablishes that Hawkins was the last of the three to join the enterprise.
43
We agree that this evidence is too slender a reed to support Hawkins' conviction of the Oklahoma City Travel Act violation. The fact that Harrell's partners were "usually around" and that Owens regarded Hall and Hawkins as Harrell's partners cannot prove that Hawkins was present at any of the courier meetings in question. At best, the evidence establishes that Owens did not know when Hawkins arrived in Tampa, but that after he did arrive, he was usually present during Harrell's discussions with couriers. Owens' testimony necessarily leaves reasonable doubts whether Hawkins actually listened in on the Oklahoma City conversations.

people were usually taxi drivers, hairdressers, and small food and vegetable shopkeepers, like Istvan Kövesi with his meat shop," says the collection's CuratorTamasKieselbach.
In order to buy such works, often costing more than 80 times his official monthly salary, Kövesi diverted money from his butcher's business, bypassing Budapest's official auction houses.
According to experts, that practice of buying and selling paintings outside the system still exists.
Speaking to euronews journalist Gábor Ács, art historian Peter Molnos said:
''Behind us you can see the only place where under Communism you could buy and sell paintings legally. But, collectors could walk next door to the Luxor cafe, exactly the same place where the gallery is located today, and they could make arrangements with private dealers over what they wanted to buy.''
But what prompted Kövesito collect so many fine works?
One theory according to historians is the butcher tried to escape the everyday reality of Communism and his experiences both before and during the second world war through art.
''During the 1930s the so-called 'Jewish law' in Hungary meant Jews were restricted in what they could do. Kövesi was also deported to a Nazi death camp, but he survived. When he returned to Hungary his home was abandoned and everybody in his family had been killed in the Holocaust. Later he met a woman, who survived Auschwitz, and they married. After the Second World War Kövesi believed the suffering was over."

The area is characterized by the presence of transition mires and quaking bogs, inland salt meadows and *Molinia* meadows on calcareous, peaty, or clayey-silt-laden soils. Area No. 3 is in the confluence of the Vistula and the San River. It covers of 35.45 km^2^ and includes part of the Special Site of Conservation of Nature 2000 habitats "Dolina Dolnego Sanu". The site was used to research SG. The area is dominated by an agricultural landscape as well as meadow and shrub habitats, including alluvial meadows from the *Cnidion dubii* alliance of high nature conservation value, occurring in river valleys, and lowland hay meadows. The target species pose athe acquisition of reference data.
The results also indicate that to obtain the best results, it is necessary to adjust the selection of training polygons to traits of a given species. Effective classification requires adaptation of spatial, spectral and temporal resolution of data to match traits of the target plant species \[[@B8-sensors-19-02871],[@B9-sensors-19-02871]\]. In the case of the analyzed species, the classification results were affected not only by phenological but also structural traits and their variability in the surveyed areas, as well as the spectral characteristics of a given species. The analyzed dicotyledonous perennials (SG, FU) are characterized by the small size of individuals, especially at an early stage of expansion. Furthermore, their shoots usually intertwine with shoots of other plant species, which means that even with a relatively high

A U.S. appeals court ruled Friday in favor of a Florida law that bars doctors from asking patients about gun ownership. The move overturns a lower court’s decision in the so-called "Docs vs. Glocks" case.
Florida's Republican-led legislature passed the law after a north Florida couple complained that a doctor asked them if they had guns, and refused to see them after they declined to answer. A federal judge ruled the law unconstitutional in 2012, and the state swiftly appealed.
A panel of the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, in a 2-1 vote, vacated the federal judge's ruling and described the law as a "legitimate regulation" of professional conduct that simply codifies good medical care.
Any restrictions it places on physicians' speech was entirely incidental, the appeals court said, sinceit "was intended to protect patient privacy and curtail abuses of the physician-patient relationship."
Lawyers representing doctors and others had argued that the law violated healthcare providers' First Amendment rights by threatening them with heavy fines and the possibility of losing their licenses if they broach the subject.
Many doctors said they ask about gun ownership as a normal part of screening new patients, including it on a long list of health questions about drug and alcohol use, smoking, exercise and eating habits.
Critics of the law said the appeal was driven by the National Rifle Association and the gun industry to prevent regulations.
Howard Simon, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Florida, was surprised at Friday's ruling. Simon's organization had filed legal briefs in support of the challenge

"My two favorite things (--) Jell-O pudding & rape," tweeted E.J. Coughlin over a photo of Cosby smiling.
By nightfall, Cosby's original tweet had been pulled from the Web. But in the social media age, the rape allegations have stubbornly remained in the open.
In late October, comedian Hannibal Buress bluntly attacked what he perceived as Cosby's "smuggest old black man public persona" by saying, "Yeah, but you rape women, Bill Cosby, so turn the crazy down a couple notches. 'I don't curse onstage.' Well, yeah, you're (a) rapist, so I'll take you saying lots of m*****f*****s on 'Bill Cosby: Himself' if you weren't a rapist."
A couple weeks later, Cosby was booked on Queen Latifah's talk show, but the allegations reportedly gave the staff "cold feet," according to TMZ. Cosby'sbooking was "postponed at his request," the website reported in an addendum. (Cosby did do interviews with Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Fallon without incident.)
For years, Cosby has denied the rape allegations. In February, after Newsweek ran an interview with one of the purported victims, Tamara Green, Cosby's representative said, "This is a 10-year-old, discredited accusation that proved to be nothing at the time, and is still nothing."
Nine years ago, when Green was interviewed by Matt Lauer on the "Today" show, his lawyer issued a statement: "Miss Green's allegations are absolutely false. Mr. Cosby does not know the name Tamara Green or (maiden name) Tamara Lucier and the incident she describes did not happen. The fact that she may have repeated this story to others is not corroboration."

and in the country teams, were discussed extensively and were agreed upon by the team members. The publication protocol was first drafted at a meeting in Sudan, with reference to the Sudanese-led WP, and was subsequently adopted for all publications of the project in a meeting in Norway.
The project was officially launched in Sudan in March 2009, following a year of financial and administrative negotiations with the European Commission. In addition to its commencement in Sudan, the consortium also held its annual and closing meetings in Sudan, and also held annual meetings in Norway, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. Members of an external advisory board attended some of these meetings with participation by members from all of the countries and the institutional partners.

Fiesta Oyster Bake, one of the opening weekend's biggest events, chose to move to Friday and Saturday, April 11 and 12.
"There's no way we could have held the Oyster Bake on (the St. Mary's University) campus over Easter weekend," said Steve Rosenauer, executive director of the event.
He noted that the organization had been aware of the conflict for some time and already had contacted the commission about holding Oyster Bake April 11-12, even though it wouldn't have taken place during the official Fiesta schedule.
"We're very happy that now we'll officially be included in Fiesta," he said.
A Taste of New Orleans, another major opening weekend event, also asked to move up a week while a third, Fiesta Arts Fair, has asked to remain onof Fiesta. But the carnival is held in Parking Lot C of the Alamodome and, if the Alamodome is hosting events on those dates, the parking lot likely will not be available. (As of Wednesday, the dome's website didn't list any scheduled events for April 2014.)
Likewise, A Taste of New Orleans will be able to move to the opening weekend only if the Sunken Garden Theater is available.
District 1 Councilman Diego Bernal, whose downtown district is home to most of Fiesta's large-scale events, said he has no objection to expanding Fiesta to a half-month.
"I'm not opposed to it, especially if it's done to accommodate Easter," he said. "I still want to see" the proposal.

worthy of the title "empire" that hasn't also backed up its power with impressive feats of engineering. Although the great pyramids aren't discussed here (an episode on "Egypt" is available separately), they best exemplify the idea. They're the first thing that one thinks of when considering ancient Egypt, and we remain in awe of the empire that built them even thousands of years after it disappeared in the sand.
So, the profound influence of design and engineering on history is the point in this series, and Peter Weller is, perhaps surprisingly, an effective guide to the highlights. More than merely a narrator (Michael Carroll serves ably in that role), Weller is on location in each episode and each segment, often interviewing experts in person. As an occasional Syracuse Universitylecturer, Weller has a great voice, but it's not the only reason he's here. He has a thoughtful and inquisitive mind, and as the behind-the-scenes featurette indicates, much of the information that he relays comes less from a script than out of ad hoc conversation with knowledgeable guests. There's certainly nothing wrong with hiring a deep-throated celebrity to read your copy, but it's nice to see this one get his hands dirty. He's as crucial to this show as is a Josh Bernstein on Digging for the Truth, another History Channel hit. Empire also shares with that show the high production values that have helped to make History Channel programming popular with a broad audience.

It has a dog-leg shape, typical of the layout of early Eighteenth Dynasty tombs, but several features make this tomb stand out. The burial chamber is a rectangular shape and divided into upper and lower pillared sections, with the lower part holding the sarcophagus of the king. This style of burial chamber became 'standard' for royal burials in the later New Kingdom.
Later the tomb was used as a mummy cache. Mummies belonging to the following individuals were relocated here during the Third Intermediate Period and were identified by inscriptions on their burial wrappings:
Amenhotep II (the original tomb owner found in his original sarcophagus)
Younger “Lady” (In June 2003, British Egyptologist Joann Fletcher controversially claimed that this could be Nefertiti, wife of the "heretic pharaoh" Akhenaten. However DNA seems tonow show it is actually the body of a man. Debate continues.)
Other remains in the tomb:
Unknown Male mummy on a boat which was destroyed in 1901 by tomb robbers. This has been claimed to be Setnakht as his coffin was in the tomb. But the arms on this mummy were not crossed on the chest as would have been expected of a king and this identification therefore seems doubtful. Therefore perhaps this could in fact Webensenu.
Two skulls were also found in the well chamber, one of which could have belonged to Amenhotep II’s mother Hatshepsut Meryetre as a cane found in the tomb indicates was perhaps buried here. The whereabouts of these skulls does now not appear to be known.
An additional mummified arm was also found with the

Conservative riding association in Hull-Aylmer, Que.
That association spent only about $12,000 of its own money in the 2006 election, according to numbers from Elections Canada, but received almost $34,000 in reimbursements because of the "in-and-out" tactic.
David Herle, the Liberal campaign director in 2006, says the $1.5 million extra the Conservatives spent could have changed the outcome of a close election.
"I don't know if it was decisive. It was influential," Herle told CBC News.
"They clearly intended it to be influential or they wouldn't have done it. If they didn't think it would have made any difference, they wouldn't have gone to such great lengths."
Andre Thouin, an official with Elections Canada, knocks on the door of Conservative Party Headquarters of Canada in Ottawa on April 15, 2008, during an RCMPraid of the office. ((Tom Hanson/Canadian Press)) Pierre Poilievre, parliamentary secretary to the prime minister, says all the parties use the same strategy.
"The national party did indeed transfer funds to local campaigns, which is legal, ethical and commonplace among all political parties," he said in the Commons last week.
But the NDP's national campaign director says in those cases the money goes from national to local and then stops.
"That money then should be spent on local projects and that is not the case with the Conservatives. But that was the case with the New Democrats. That's why we're not up on charges," Brad Lavigne said.
Beyond a leg-up in the 2006 campaign, the "in-and-out" scheme may have helped the Conservatives in the next one as well.

national team, and then going down to the third division was a tough decision. After thinking about it and speaking with my agent and family it was the option to take.
"At the time this was kind of the only option that I had to take, that I could take," Gall said. "I kind of put my head down and I was like, 'I need to get playing time, consistent playing time', and this was the best move at the time."

Eventually overcoming his reservations about the move, Gall went to Nykopings BIS, and played well enough in his first season in to draw the attention of GIF Sundsvall, the same club that produced and Sweden national team star Emil Forsberg. Gall joined Sundsvall on a free transferin the spring of 2017, and enjoyed modest success and some regular stints as a starter. He eventually hit his stride last fall, becoming a regular a starter and eventually showing off his goal-scoring ability. He scored two goals in his final six matches of the 2017 season to offer a glimpse of his potential.
Gall has carried over that success into 2018, scoring an impressive five goals in eight matches in all competitions, including a double in Sundsvall's recent 2-1 win against Elfsborg. The 23-year-old has settled in as a skilled left winger capable of taking people on as well as providing service, along with being able to create his own chances.

Brendan Rodgers confirmed Celtic have received an offer from Chelsea for Craig Gordon but remains adamant that his keeper is not for sale.
The Stamford Bridge club are looking to line up a replacement should Asmir Begovic, number two to Thibaut Courtois , move to Bournemouth.
Chelsea reportedly bid around £3million for the 34-year-old Scotland keeper but speaking at Celtic's Lennoxtown training complex, Rodgers said: "There has been an offer but nothing that we would (make us) even think about moving him.
"He is a player very much part of what we want to do.
"He has 18 months left on his contract and I want to keep him here to build a team around.
"We have no interest in selling him.
"When the club spoke to me about it, mymanager Ronny Deila signed him after he had been out for two years due to a knee injury.
The former Swansea City and Liverpool boss also made favourable comparisons between Gordon and former Holland keeper Edwin van der Sar.
He said: "Craig is a clever man. He has had a taste of the Premier League when he went to Sunderland and it didn't quite work out for him.
"I know with the type of guy Craig is, he will be looking at Celtic as the club who brought him back in to resurrect that career that looked like it was disappearing.
"And I know he how much he loves being here. I believe at 34, he can go until for another four or five years. He could go on playing until he

Melbourne is the education capital of Australia and has been ranked by the QS Best Student Cities in 2016 as the No 2 best student city in the world behind Paris and ahead of Tokyo for international students.
According to the Australian Government Department of Education and Training statistics (international student enrolment data 2015) 645,185 International students studied in Australia in 2015. Of those, 272,095 were at the higher education level. Victoria recorded over a third of higher education international student enrolments in 2015 with 91,487 university enrolments.

The Detroit News
Detroit — A Detroit Police Internal Affairs probe into reported overtime abuse in the Homicide Section has been expanded into other units, police officials confirm, and into allegations a deputy chief disparaged a lieutenant after he claimed the higher-ranking official's step-brother was falsifying documents.
The internal investigation was launched last month after allegations surfaced of overtime abuse in the Homicide Unit, according to information obtained by The Detroit News and confirmed by Police Chief James Craig.
The charges included officers allegedly filing for overtime they didn't work and writing up false subpoenas to appear in court so they could collect extra pay.
The probe recently expanded into other units, Craig confirmed, including Sex Crimes and the former Narcotics Section, which was disbanded this summer amid another internal probe

Specter was the longest-serving senator in Pennsylvania history. On the issues, Specter was a moderate who opposed most gun control, supported a woman’s right to choose, voted to repeal “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and voted in favor of authorizing the Iraq War.
( PHOTOS: Arlen Specter 1930-2012)
One of Specter’s biggest splashes on the political stage came in 1991, when he toughly questioned Anita Hill during the hearings on Clarence Thomas’s appointment to the Supreme Court. Specter accused Hill of committing “flat-out perjury” as she testified that Thomas had sexually harassed her.
He also openly criticized the Republican Party in 1999 for impeaching President Bill Clinton in the wake of the Monica Lewinsky scandal, and declared that his verdict wasand prayers to Joan and the entire Specter family.”

Specter was born in Wichita, Kan., on Feb. 12, 1930, to Harry and Lillie Specter. When Specter was 4 years old, his father — who emigrated from Ukraine — took his youngest son to meet the Wichita sheriff, who told the youngster he would make him a deputy sheriff. Harry Specter sent a photo of Arlen sporting the sheriff’s badge to “Ripley’s Believe It or Not!” and in 1934, a picture made it into the publication with the caption that Arlen was the youngest deputy sheriff in history, Specter wrote in his 2000 autobiography “A Passion for Truth.”
The Specter family later moved to the small town of Russell, Kan., where Arlen

He spoke of when he was surprisingly hired as head coach eight years ago. He spoke of his plan to build the program. And he spoke of that plan coming to fruition. "At the top of that mountain, that Clemson flag is flying!" Awash in screams and cheers, he hoisted the trophy.

Swinney's opening statement lasts nearly eight minutes, during which he dishes out a sort of "greatest hits" of his Clemson era, mentioning guts ("Bring your own guts!"), disrespect (let's just say he's not a fan of former ESPN radio personality Colin Cowherd), and a statistical reasoning of why everyone should stop acting as if Clemson's rise is a surprise ("We beat the last seven national champions this season alone.").

'False impression of reality': Publisher pulls book about George Washington's 'happy' slaves
The Scholastic Corporation has halted the distribution of a new children's book that critics say depicts slaves of the first US president George Washington as cheerful and accepting of their bondage without any context on the nature of slavery in the US.
The book, A Birthday Cake for George Washington, is based on actual slaves owned by George Washington; the main character, Hercules, was Washington's chef. The narrative follows Hercules, described as a valued, respected slave to Washington, employing his daughter and narrator of the book, Delia, and other slaves in the process of making a birthday cake for their master. When Washington lauds the cake at the end of the book, Hercules responds, "an honor and aprivilege, sir,"according to the School Library Journal.
The book, with its vibrant illustrations, has garnered backlash for its depiction of slaves as wholly joyful despite being owned by the one of the most powerful men in the United States at the time.
"[W]ithout more historical background on the evils of slavery than this book for younger children can provide, the book may give a false impression of the reality of the lives of slaves and therefore should be withdrawn," Scholastic said in a statement.
"We do not believe this title meets the standards of appropriate presentation of information to younger children, despite the positive intentions and beliefs of the author, editor, and illustrator," the publisher added.
Here is a refresher for those who have a penchant for revisionist history. George Washington, Slave

average (38%), spanning 1976-2014. On the other hand, the share of Americans saying they are financially worse off compared with a year ago is, by historical standards, high -- eight percentage points above the average. The record high of 55% occurred in May and September 2008, the year (and, in the latter case, the month) of the global financial meltdown.
Most Americans Have High Economic Hopes for Year Ahead
While many Americans say the past year was a financial dud, a majority (55%) predict that at this time next year they will be financially better off. Optimism about the future may still be the predominant feeling, but the overall positivity of the nation's personal financial predictions appears to be easing, compared with the average during the past decade.

Despite aresidence wherein several firearms were seized, Kwiatkowski observed two men speaking on a cell phone. They identified themselves as friends of Gardin, who was on the phone with them at that time. Kwiatkowski asked to talk with Gardin, and in so doing advised him to turn himself in. The next day, Gardin appeared at the police station with his attorney, Loren Lobban. According to Kwiatkowski, he met with Gardin and Lobban, advised Gardin that he was under arrest and that he was going to take Gardin downtown to be processed. He further told Lobban that "nothing was going to happen to [Gardin]" on the trip downtown.
Lobban testified that, prior to turning him over to the police he advised Gardin not to answer any questions. Upon arrival at the

King pled guilty to kidnaping, served seven or eight months of a two-year sentence, and continued to live with his wife for a period of time after his conviction until their divorce in 1978. King denied that he harmed his wife. Counsel asked if King had ever harmed anybody, to which he responded, "Not intentionally, no[,]" and counsel then tendered King for cross-examination. His entire direct testimony at the penalty phase was transcribed in eight and one-half pages.
*972 The State's cross-examination consumed seventeen pages of the trial transcript. In reiterating King's employment history, the State brought out that King attended classes at the University of Tennessee Chattanooga on a government job training program before he worked as an insurance salesman. King admittedhis child was born out of wedlock, and he stated he supported the child as much as he could. As to criminal history, King testified his felony convictions occurred between 1977 and 1979. He admitted he was indicted for grand larceny of a television, went to prison for receiving stolen property, and was actually in prison during one of the years he told the jury he was employed because he got mixed up on the dates. He also conceded his first conviction for an attempt to commit a felony involved burglary of an automobile and his second conviction for attempt to commit a felony involved a robbery with three co-defendants.

She imposed a curfew and would not let Tommy or Bernard go out after dark or before they did their homework. For Tommy, the move to New York was a total change, from parents who were very involved and in touch with what he was doing, to a total lack of supervision. After serving two tours in Vietnam, Lamar returned to New York addicted to black tar opium, cocaine and marijuana. He found Tommy addicted to heroin. They lived in New York another year and then returned to Chattanooga.
When the Brewers were murdered, "Tommy lost his whole world, his whole world crumbled[.]" (Id. at ¶ 17.)He "really broke down" when he saw their bodies. (Id. at ¶ 14.) He bottled his feelings inside and could not talk about it. Instead, he turned to drugs. Lamar saw Tommy almost every day during that period. Tommy had always been a calm person able to get along with others, but after the murders, he could not cope. Lamar believes that counseling would have helped Tommy, but in those days, counseling was not ordinarily pursued. Tommy had flashbacks and believed he actually saw and talked to Alice.
When Tommy was arrested for capital murder, Lamar was living in Chattanooga. The attorneys did not contact him, and he did not know that family information was important. Lamar would have been willing to testify about anything he knew about Tommy

the jury heard evidence of the felony murder that it was entitled to hear in the guilt phase. See Howell, 868 S.W.2d at 261 ("[A]n aggravating factor which duplicates the elements of the underlying crime has less relative tendency to prejudicially affect the sentence imposed than invalid aggravating factors which interject inadmissible evidence into the sentencing calculus, or which require the sentencing jury to draw additional conclusions from the guilt phase evidence.") The State's witnesses testified contrary to King. King, 992 S.W.2d at 947-948.

The Court finds these arguments are unavailing. The records concerning the use of grand and petit juries in Maury County through the 1970's and early 1980's were in existence at the time of King's trial in 1982 and thereafter. While the records may have been kept in disorganized fashion as King alleges, King did not ask the state court to provide funds to hire an investigator to locate and utilize the records until June 1995, during litigation of his second post-conviction petition.

Rifeh
Rifeh or Deir Rifeh (also known as Rifa) is a village in Egypt. The name refers today most often to a series of Ancient Egyptian cemeteries nearby. These are the burial grounds of the ancient town Shashotep. The cemeteries date from the end of the First Intermediate Period to the Roman Period. Especially important are the burials of the Middle Kingdom. In this period Shashotep was the capital of the 11th Upper Egyptian province. Several decorated rock cut tombs were carved into the rocky hills. They belong to the local governors of the period. Nakht-Khnum and Nefer-Khnum are the two whose names survived. In front of these tombs were burials of lower officials that were working for these local governors. One of them is the Tomb of TwoSince at least August 2015, he has released audio and video messages on the Internet calling on his followers to launch attacks against the United States and its Western allies, and he has threatened attacks against the United States in revenge for the May 2011 killing of his father by U.S. service members.
The news release also said that the U.S. was "offering a reward of up to $1 million for information leading to the identification or location in any country of al-Qa'ida (AQ) key leader Hamza bin Laden."

Wednesday, the league's website, www.pecosleague.com, included the caps of nine teams: the Alpine (Texas) Cowboys, the Bisbee (Arizona) Blue, the Vaqueros, Las Vegas Train Robbers, Roswell Invaders, Santa Fe Fuego, Taos Blizzard, Trinidad (Colorado) Triggers and White Sands Pupfish. Santa Fe was the league champion this season, and the Triggers were featured in a six-episode reality series on the Fox Sports 1 cable network this summer.

Each Pecos League team will play a 70-game season next year. The league will be divided into three divisions, which includes Las Cruces, Bisbee and Las Vegas in the southern division; Trinidad, Santa Fe and Taos in the northern division; and Roswell, Alpine and White Sands — which plays its games in Alamogordo — in the western division. The winner of eachdivision will advance to the league playoffs. The fourth league playoff spot will be decided between the two teams with the best records that didn't win their division. Those two "wild card" teams will have a one-game playoff.
Dunn said the 2015 Pecos League all-star game will be played in Santa Fe.
The Pecos League is independent and not affiliated with Major League Baseball. It is generally considered the lowest level of professional baseball, but Dunn was quick to say numerous players in the league — as well as former Vaqueros — have been promoted.
"We just had our first player pitch in the majors, for the Texas Rangers," Dunn said. "We've had a lot of players move up, get promoted, quite a few this year. ... What a lot of

in his regular employment, he worked as a painter in the thirty days preceding his injury for two different employers. The Commission allowed him benefits on the basis of his total wages earned for the thirty day period, exclusive of a bonus received from his regular employment.
In Wells the employers were insured in all of the various occupations in which the employee was employed and as to each of his employments he was an employee within the meaning of the Workmen's Compensation Act. At the time of the injury he was working for the respondent, Hensley, who had knowledge that petitioner was also being employed by another contractor. In setting the average monthly wage, the Commission applied the rule of Butler v. Industrial Commission, 50 Ariz. 516, 73and had worked less than 30 days before he was injured.

"The Commission may consider the previous wage of the injured person if he had been employed a length of time reasonably sufficient in that neighborhood in the same employment to enable the Commission to determine what his average monthly wage would be.

TV serial killer
The teenager told his family that a voice in his head named Ed told him to kill someone.
He used tools from his father's tree surgery business to cut up his girlfriend's body before wrapping her dismembered limbs and placing them in bin bags.
When Miles' sister returned to the family's flat about an hour after the murder, he told her "Ed made me do something bad."
Psychiatric experts told the court "Ed" was likely to be a manifestation of anxiety, rather than schizophrenia, said BBC South East Home Affairs correspondent Colin Campbell.
Miles had some narcissistic personality traits and showed signs of being on the autism spectrum, and the court was told it was these traits that are likely to have caused the anxiety, he added.
The court was toldMiles had a fascination with horror movies and had wanted to copy the actions of Dexter, the main character in an American TV series about a police forensics officer who is also a serial killer.
Prosecutor Philip Bennetts said Miles' parents, Emma and David Miles, had referred him to his GP and mental health services after he began to self harm in April 2012.
Ex girlfriend 'strangled'
After missing an extended period of school and undergoing support for his condition in October 2013 he was judged as having made good progress and was discharged by the mental health services.
One of his previous girlfriends told police he had described how he was going to kill someone and that on one occasion he tried to strangle her for a matter of seconds.

Amda Seyon (also Amde Tsiyon and other variants, Ge'ez ዐምደ ፡ ጽዮን ʿamda ṣiyōn, Amharic āmde ṣiyōn, "Pillar of Zion") was Emperor of Ethiopia (1314–1344; throne name Gebre Mesqel Ge'ez ገብረ ፡ መስቀል gabra masḳal, "slave of the cross"), and a member of the Solomonic dynasty. According to the British expert on Ethiopia, Edward Ullendorff, "Amde Tseyon was one of the most outstanding Ethiopian kings of any age and a singular figure dominating the Horn of Africa in the fourteenth century."
His conquests of Muslim borderlands greatly expanded Ethiopian territory and power in the region, maintained for centuries after his death. Amda Seyon asserted the strength of the newly (1270) installed Solomonic dynasty and therefore legitimized it.

represents the best deterrent of severe violence, can hope for nothing from the Tories, who view such a penalty with liberal horror.
5. The Alleged 'War' on Single Mothers , and the real war on married parents
A bit like the war on drugs, a fantasy of pro-drug campaigners, , this so-called war on single mothers never took place. In fact, the British state has for nearly 50 years been waging a merciless war against marriage, and those who want to make a go of it. The 1968 Divorce Law Reform Act, passed by the Wilson Labour government, made a marriage easier to break up than a hire purchase agreement.
One party could from then on simply refuse to abide by the vows he or she had made. If the otherparty wanted to keep the marriage going, the 'irretrievable breakdown' rule meant that he or she could be over-ridden after a certain amount of time had elapsed. And if that party tried to stay in the family home, he or she could be dragged out by the force of the state - backed by the threat of prison. The effect of this was no-fault divorce on demand.
This enormous revolution - a huge increase in the power of the state, a huge blow to private life - was followed (this is detailed in my book 'The Abolition of Britain' ) by a series of court judgements in which the concept of 'fault' was wholly removed from decisions on what then happened to the family home and to the children.

boy, he showed an early interest in explosions and weapons. While on a voyage to India as an apprentice sailor, young Colt designed an innovative gun with an automatic, revolving chamber. Multiple Shots
In 1835, Colt took out his first patent and founded the Patent Arms Company in Paterson, New Jersey. His pistol was different from others; its design allowed several shots to be fired in succession without reloading. A single-shot weapon took 20 seconds to reload -- a dangerous interval, especially for frontiersmen and soldiers fighting Indians who could fire six arrows in that time. Army officers used Colt's weapon in the 1830s, but production defects prevented widespread approval of the firearm. Colt would resolve to improve manufacturing, and by 1848 his guns would be safer. War-Tested
Colt receiveda boost in sales during the Texas Revolution and the Mexican American War. His weapons contributed to the U.S. Army's success, and to the resulting westward expansion of American territory. A Texas Ranger, Captain Samuel Walker, wrote Colt a testimonial that read, in part:"Your pistols...[are] the most perfect weapon in the World... to keep the various warlike tribes of Indians and marauding Mexicans in subjection." Building a Legend
Throughout the 1850s, Colt continued to make improvements on his now famous Colt revolvers. His operation became a model of precision manufacturing, automation, and process integration. He saw the value of myth-making; he marketed his gun as an essential part of the American frontier, working to promote his brand and build his market. In addition to the military, his customers included

AHEARN, Acting Commissioner.--Petitioner appeals the determination of the Board of Education of the Sewanhaka Central High School District ("respondent") that his son, Steven, is not a district resident. The appeal must be dismissed.
In August 2003, petitioner registered Steven to attend high school in respondent's district. Petitioner stated on the registration form that both he and Steven's mother resided in New Hyde Park, within the district. In March 2004, the district questioned Steven' s residence after an assistant principal observed petitioner driving from New York City one morning with Steven and dropping him off at school. On another occasion, the district received a telephone call from a Brooklyn telephone number listed under petitioner's name, reporting Steven absent from school. An assistant principal and an attendance teacher visited the NewHyde Park address and reported to the district' s attendance supervisor that the house was deserted.
By letter dated March 31, 2004, petitioner was notified of the preliminary determination that Steven was not a district resident and informed that he could appeal to respondent's designee for residency determinations. By letter dated April 14, 2004, petitioner appealed, and on April 20, 2004, respondent's designee conducted a residency hearing.
At the hearing, petitioner testified that he and Steven had been living in the house at the New Hyde Park address for approximately one year. Petitioner indicated that, prior to that time, he and Steven lived in Brooklyn with Steven's mother and other siblings. Petitioner stated that he owns two businesses and that one, Pacific Plumbing, owns the Brooklyn property, while the other,

Agent Wong thereupon took his badge from his pocket and said, "I am a federal narcotics agent." Toy immediately "slammed the door and started running" down the hallway through the laundry to his living quarters at the back where his wife and child were sleeping in a bedroom. Agent Wong and the other federal officers broke open the door and followed Toy down the hallway to the living quarters and into the bedroom. Toy reached into a nightstand drawer. Agent Wong thereupon drew his pistol, pulled Toy's hand out of the drawer, placed him under arrestand handcuffed him. There was nothing in the drawer and a search of the premises uncovered no narcotics.
One of the agents said to Toy ". . . [Hom Way] says he got narcotics from you." Toy responded, "No. I haven't been selling any narcotics at all. However, I do know somebody who has." When asked who that was, Toy said, "I only know him as Johnny. I don't know his last name." However, Toy described a house on Eleventh Avenue where he said Johnny lived; he also described a bedroom in the house where he said "Johnny kept about a piece"[2] of heroin and where he and Johnny had smoked some of the drug the night before.

Yu said he “made it clear” he was a Chinese diplomat, but the officer handcuffed him anyway. Yu said the officer struck him in the face, but he did not address the circumstances or specify when the alleged assault took place. Yu also suffered hand and neck injuries, according to a co-worker at the consulate.
Roberta MacInnis, a Houston Chronicle features editor, said she was shopping at a nearby business when she saw an HPD officer lying on top of a handcuffed man who was face-down in the garage.
Yu said the entire episode was captured on tape by a garage security camera. He and his wife later were released at the scene.

US: Students With Disabilities Face Corporal Punishment at Higher Rates
Almost a quarter of a million US public school children were subjected to corporal punishment in the 2006-2007 school year, and a disproportionate number of them were students with mental or physical disabilities.
(New York) - Students with disabilities face corporal punishment in public schools at disproportionately high rates, says a report released today by the American Civil Liberties Union and Human Rights Watch. The physical discipline, which often includes beatings, can worsen these students' medical conditions and undermine their education, says the report, which calls for an immediate moratorium on corporal punishment in US public schools.
"Students with disabilities already face extra challenges, and being hit by teachers only makes it worse," said Alice Farmer, Aryeh Neier fellow with

skilled attendants at birth prevents a large proportion of maternal and neonatal deaths. Citing the Nepali context where the majority of women were still giving birth at home, the policy explicitly conflated skilled attendance with institutional births and treatment of obstetric complications.
The strategies focused mainly on recruitment of SBAs and their deployment. The policy highlighted the need for creating an enabling environment for SBAs working in the periphery by ensuring regular supportive clinical supervision and medical supplies, effective partnership in the work environment with other health workers, and living accommodation and support from the local facility management committee."The SBA will work in close partnership with other essential health care providers at community level and be supported and guided by a strong District Health Team that has the capacityto deal effectively with emergency obstetric complications ... . Secretary of Ministry of Health and Population (p. i)"The policy also outlined the expansion of birthing units in health institutions, and encouraged NGOs and communities to establish community based birthing units at the local level (pp. 8--9).
### National Safe Motherhood and newborn health long term plan (2006--2017) {#Sec10}
The purpose of the National Safe Motherhood & Newborn Health Long Term Plan (2006--2017) \[[@CR27]\] was to increase healthy practices and to improve the quality of professional care for both mothers and their newborn babies. The document was prepared in consultation with both government and non-governmental stakeholders at the central level. The formulation of the document evolved through three stages: (i) first preparatory meeting in November 2005; (ii) first workshop in January

births in the 25 low HDI districts. This 2013 guideline ensured free maternity care throughout the country: (i) to reach the MDG maternal and child health targets; and (ii) to ensure the right to health as a fundamental constitutional right of every citizen in accordance with the provision of Nepal's interim constitution 2006 (p. 4). The document also talked about the partnership approach in providing maternity and newborn care with private, teaching and community hospitals (p. 4).
The Safe Delivery Incentive Programme guideline 2005 and the first amended version of it (SDIP 2007) provisioned financial safety nets for improving access to maternity care. The amended 2007 version provisioned free maternity care in the all 25 low HDI remote mountainous districts. This also set a slightly higher travel incentive, aboutUSD 15 (NRs 1500) to cover travel expenses from home to the institutional birth for women from the mountainous districts \[[@CR37]\]. It set about USD 5 (NRs 500) for women in the plains areas, and about USD 10 (NRs 1000) to women in the hills districts. This is reasonable considering that women in the mountainous areas have considerably further to walk/travel to attend formal healthcare institutions. As also stated above, this Mother's Protection Program Implementation Guideline continued the monetary travel incentive for giving birth in health institutions, and also expanded this to encourage pregnant women to attend health visits in the health institutions. However, this made the intention of the policy explicit on promoting institutional birth. It provisioned that women would receive the additional incentive for antenatal check-ups

What's more, Nov. 5 was immediately established as a day of celebration, and while little is known about how exactly it was celebrated then, it gradually evolved into a nationalistic night of fireworks and bonfires, with effigies of Catholic figures such as Fawkes and even the Pope set alight.
Because of this tradition, the word "guy" began to be used in England to mean "effigy" and later came to be used in a pejorative sense to describe a man ("he's a bad guy") or a usually a "weirdly dressed person," according to Parliament's history of Guy Fawkes Night.
At some point it spread to the United States, where, perhaps due to the lack of context, it began totoilets and drainage lines.

The other perpetrators were later identified as James Gray ("Gray") and Keith Barrett ("Barrett"). Id. at 722. Testimony also established the presence of Petitioner at the scene of the attack. Id.
The assault was the culmination of a conspiracy headed by Petitioner and Spence to murder Ogrod. Petitioner had moved into Ogrod's house in the spring of 1986 at the invitation of Ogrod's brother, who worked for Petitioner in his landscaping business. Petitioner did not get along with Ogrod. In July 1986, Ogrod told Petitioner to move out of the house. Petitioner refused, and a few days later removed all of Ogrod's effects to the basement. Spence

that, by refusing to permit Dr. Levitt to give the basis of his opinion, the trial court impermissibly limited the jury's consideration of mitigating circumstances, thus violating the rule in Lockett v. Ohio, 438 U.S. 586, 98 S.Ct. 2954, 57 L.Ed.2d 973 (1978), which mandates that consideration of mitigating evidence not be limited. Petitioner claims that the limitations placed on Dr. Levitt's testimony kept from the jury explanations relating to his conclusions regarding Petitioner's maturity and mental state.
In Lockett, the Court recognized that "the concept of individualized sentencing in criminal cases generally, although not constitutionally required, has long been accepted in this country." Lockett, 438 U.S. at 602, 98 S.Ct. 2954. The Court held that the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments require that "the sentencer ... not be precludedby another person for the killing of the victim"; and "7. In the commission of the offense the defendant knowingly created a grave risk of death to another person in addition to the victim of the offense." Verdict Sheet at 1.
The next section of the form was demarcated by the heading "MITIGATING CIRCUMSTANCE(S)." Following this was a list of seven possible mitigating circumstances, each followed by the same checkoff box to indicate each mitigating circumstance found by the jury. An eighth "catch-all" mitigating selection provided space to identify "[a]ny other evidence of mitigation concerning the character and record of the defendant and the circumstances of his offense." Verdict Sheet at 3. Aside from the space following this catch-all, there was no space under any of the other mitigating

Weather warnings have been put in place across Britain as rail passengers were advised not to try to travel between England and Scotland.
The Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for rain and thunderstorms for parts of the north of England, the Midlands, Scotland and Wales on Wednesday.
It said there was a chance homes and businesses could be flooded, rail and bus services could be cancelled or delayed, and the weather could lead to difficult driving conditions and road closures.
All lines are blocked on the West Coast mainline between Carlisle and Lockerbie because a tree fell on overhead equipment in Floriston, Cumbria.

These once were stables, serving Bulfinch-designed
houses built by Hepzibah Swan for her three daughters, who lived at 13,
15 and 17 Chestnut St.
The cobblestone driveway of 85 Mt. Vernon St.,
built in 1802 and designed by Charles Bulfinch, was featured in the
original movie entitled The Thomas Crowne Affair. This house and its
neighbors at 87 and 89 are the only free-standing houses on the hill.
Louisburg Sq. (pronounced "Lewisburg"), a few
houses farther down, is probably the address most associated with Boston
wealth and privilege. Moguls still live here, as does Senator John
Kerry. The large Greek revival houses were built in the 1830s and many
are still single-family homes. Some of New England's intellectuals lived
here: William Dean Howells at No.16 and Louisa May Alcott at No. 10.
From Louisburg Sq., take a short walk down Willow
St.to charming Acorn St., a one-block long, cobble-stoned passageway
that runs from Willow St. to West Cedar St. Some say it is the most
photographed street in America. Most of the rather plain, small brick
houses here are only one room deep and were originally inhabited by
working families who served the rich in the big houses. Turn right up
West Cedar and left down Mount Vernon to Charles St.
Across the street on the right hand side is the

an appeal. The appeal was ordered to be submitted and the record, transcript, instructions, and ruling of the trial court were examined. No reversible error was found and the conviction was affirmed.
The United States Supreme Court in Anders v. State of California, supra, reconsidered the question of the procedure necessary to insure that an indigent receive adequate representation on appeal of a criminal conviction. Petitioner had been convicted of a felony and counsel was appointed to represent him on appeal. After a study of the record and consultation with the petitioner, the appointed counsel concluded that there was no merit to the appeal. Consistent with the procedure in that jurisdiction he so advised the court by letter.

This has inflamed tensions, risking undermining Prime Minister Narendra Modi's efforts to focus on economic advancement.

Citizens then started to convert money to protect the value of their savings being destroyed by the central bank and government through currency depreciation and inflation, or withhold earnings abroad to protect themselves from the central bank.
The exchange controls themselves prompted citizens to hoard money abroad, understating real profits of businesses at home and depriving the country of investment capital and the government of tax revenue.
A proposed 'foreign exchange act' will allow funds stashed abroad to be brought back without paying any additional income tax or any tax other than a remittance tax that will be specified in the future.

and Mattthau and Jack Lemmon in the 1968 film. Klugman would go on to win two Emmy Awards for his portrayal.
Klugman had already had a taste of the show when he replaced Matthau on Broadway, and he learned to roll with the quick-thinking Randall.
"There's nobody better to improvise with than Tony," Klugman said. "A script might say, 'Oscar teaches Felix football.' There would be four blank pages. He would provoke me into reacting to what he did. Mine was the easy part."
They were the best of friends in real life. When Randall died in 2004 at age 84, Klugman told CNN: "A world without Tony Randall is a world that I cannot recognize."
In Quincy, M.E., which ran from 1976 to 1983, Klugman played an idealistic, tough-minded medical examinerwho tussled with his boss by uncovering evidence of murder in cases where others saw natural causes.
"Everybody said, 'Quincy will never be a hit.' I said, 'You guys are wrong. He's two heroes in one, a cop and a doctor,' " he said in a 1987 Associated Press interview.
But it was his partnership with Randall that would prove to be his defining role. When Klugman lost a vocal cord to cancer in 1989, it was Randall who insisted Klugman could bounce back.
"My career was over," Klugman told USA TODAY in 1997, when he reunited with Randall on Broadway for Simon's The Sunshine Boys. "I couldn't even swallow: I had to lay on my side. I lived alone, could barely whisper. I cut off everybody."

The scale of inequality is staggering. New York City trails only Moscow for the most billionaires with 57, yet it is also home to the poorest congressional district in the nation.

David Rohde, a Reuters columnist, pointed out that Hurricane Sandy exposed how unequal New York City has become:
Divides between the rich and the poor are nothing new in New York, but

others--along with the corporate elites they serve--who are responsible for rising inequality in the first place.
In the years before Hurricane Sandy devastated his state, Christie took the axe to the benefits of the very workers who are taking the lead in helping residents during this crisis. Christie, with the help of several Democrats in the state legislature, attacked public workers with legislation to "remove health insurance from collective bargaining, more than triple employee health care contributions and raise workers' pension contributions." And Christie has led attacks on teachers' unions in his state, using his platform at the Republican National Convention to demonize teachers' unions further.
Bloomberg, with a net worth of more than $20 billion, is the tenth richest person in the U.S. Unsurprisingly, he opposed the extension ofthe so-called "millionaires' tax" that would have raised billions by taxing the very wealthy--money that could go towards repairing the city's outdated infrastructure.
During his term as mayor, Bloomberg's net worth has more than quintupled, while he slashed budgets impacting the neediest; cut funding to education, health care, child care, homeless shelters including for LGBT youth and libraries; and attacked the very public-sector workers whose response to Hurricane Sandy Bloomberg has hypocritically praised in front of television cameras.
According to an article from U.S. News and World Report, the city could have protected New York City from the flooding with sea barriers of the kind used in major European cities--at a cost of just over $6 billion. That's less than one-quarter of Bloomberg's current fortune--and less than one-third the amount

, AFP/File
By 1977, its hard-core founding members, including Andreas Baader, were long since behind bars, and their comrades sought to free them from their cells.
On October 13, four militants of the RAF-allied Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine hijacked Mallorca-Frankfurt flight LH 181, demanding the release of 11 RAF members.
During a five-day odyssey which included seven refuelling stops in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, the cell's leader, who called himself Captain Martyr Mahmud, shot dead the pilot, Juergen Schumann.
Then-chancellor Helmut Schmidt refused to give in even though RAF militants were also holding hostage the industrialist Hanns Martin Schleyer, a former SS officer.
- 'Where are thepigs?' -
The Lufthansa jet landed in Mogadishu on October 17, where Mahmud issued an ultimatum, threatening to set off plastic explosives and dousing passengers in alcohol to accelerate the fire.
After nightfall, 30 German commandos landed, the plane's lights turned off. Operation "Feuerzauber" ("magic fire") was the first mission of the new GSG 9 unit, founded after the security debacle of the 1972 Munich Olympics massacre of Jewish athletes.
While German officials played for time, the special unit approached the plane's rear blind spot from behind sand dunes, then climbed blackened ladders to its doors and escape hatches.
Mahmud was on the cockpit radio when he was blinded by flash-bang grenades outside.
The commandos stormed in, one yelling in German "Heads down, where are the pigs!?", and riddled all four hijackers with

of Taiwan\'s GDP in 2007 and 2008, respectively. The [@bib55] indicated that Taiwan\'s foreign exchange earning from tourism was US\$5.1 billion in 2007 and represented 1.34% of the GDP, which is higher than the corresponding figures in the US, Canada, Germany, Japan, South Korea and China. [@bib34] and [@bib13] further showed that international tourism development in Taiwan could promote economic growth.
Knowing an imperative impact of international tourism development on the national economy, the Taiwanese government has implemented several tourism strategic plans to promote international tourism. In 2002, the Doubling Tourist Arrivals Plan (DTAP) was introduced as part of the National Development Plan named "Challenge 2008," which was designed to reinforce Taiwan\'s overall economy. The DTAP aims to double the number of foreign tourist arrivals to Taiwan and particularlyattract 5 million international visitors to Taiwan by 2008. In 2005, the Tourism Bureau of Taiwan further introduced another tourism promotion plan, called the Tourism Flagship Plan, to promote the nation\'s top attractions and cultural festivals ([@bib50]).
However, the number of total foreign tourist arrival was only 3.85 million. The failure of the DTAP may due to the poor global economic performance, the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 in the US and the outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in 2003. To promote international tourism and attract more foreign tourists, the Taiwanese government introduced another plan, called Project Vanguard or Excellence in Tourism. This project aims to attract 4 million international visitors to Taiwan in 2009 and make Taiwan as one of major tourist destinations in Asia.

As all seven Canadian Premier League teams get down to business in Punta Cana for their Dominican preseason routines, they seemed to have one thing in common: while their preseason games were played in open daylight, nobody was making video footage of the highlights public. CPL Managing Editor Kurt Larson previously stated he believed video footage being recorded was for internal use only, meaning fans would have to get by on whatever social media driplets gave them a hint of the action.
Then, FC Edmonton dropped an entire highlight video of the club’s 2-0 win over Dominican Republic side Inter RD.
The 1 minute and 52 second video, which can be seen below, reveals that it took 19 minutes for Jeff Paulus’ FC Edmonton side to break down Inter RD,died on January 30, 1974, in St. Anthony Hospital in Oklahoma City. On the basis of stipulated exhibits including a death certificate, an amendment thereto, and similar reports and hospital records, the company moved for summary judgment, relying on statements therein that the immediate cause of death was pneumonia which was due to "Drug Overdose" (R. 80, 81). Among other things the records show an "accidental drug overdose (aspirin)" and that Mrs. Webb was having headaches and anxiety and was taking aspirin (R. 83). The company's position is that the death was excluded from the accidental death benefit by the exclusion for death from "overdose of drugs", as appearing in the following language of the policy (R. 64):

for women working to help each other, rather than competing or bringing each other down. In a week where Gaga was yet again sized up against a certain female pop predecessor in the media cycle, it rings especially relevant.
"I confess I am lost/ In the age of the social" ("Angel Down")
"Angel Down" is an ode to slain teenager Trayvon Martin, but before Gaga gets into the thick of her tribute, she takes a second to admit her own confusion in today's Twitter-accelerated world. It's a recurring theme on Joanne, as lead single "Perfect Illusion" also sees Gaga trying to cope with reality being obscured by the misrepresentation allowed by the Internet.
"I was 23, she was 35/ I was spiralin’ out and she was so alive" ("Grigio Girls")
From theWilliam Maxwell Reed
William Maxwell Reed (January 12, 1871 in Bath, Maine – September 1962), a.k.a. W. Maxwell Reed, was a pioneering U.S. author of illustrated science books for children.
After schooling at Harvard, he taught astronomy at Harvard and Princeton University.
Reed later went into the steel industry.
Beginning as a series of letters to his nephew, his first book, The Earth for Sam, was published in 1929. The book remains popular and was republished in 2005.
Earth was followed by a series of popular children's information books, many published by Harcourt, Brace.

the hand clears the entire chessboard. Socialists, fascists and everybody in between are swept to the floor.
The new man is Emmanuel Macron. (Emmanuel is a good Hebrew name, meaning "God with us".) He is very young for a president (39), very good looking, very inexperienced, except for a short stint as an economic minister. He is also a staunch supporter of the European Union.
A quirk, party functionaries comforted themselves. It will not last. But then came the French parliamentary elections, and the flood became a tsunami. An almost unprecedented result: already in the first round Macron's new party gained an astounding majority, which will surely grow in the second round.
Everybody needed to think again. Macron was obviously the very opposite of the New Rightist Wave. Not only aboutstirred a wave of admiration and enthusiasm: Bernie Sanders.
Not the most promising candidate: 78 years old, a senator for 10 years. Yet he was feted like a newcomer, a man half his age. If he had been the candidate of his party, there is little doubt that he would be President today. (Even poor Hillary got a majority of the popular vote.)
So do all these victories and near-victories have something in common? Do they add up to a "wave"?
On first sight, no. Neither did the left win (Trump, Brexit) nor did theright(Macron, Corbyn, Sanders).
So there is nothing in common?
Oh yes, there is. It is the rebellion against the establishment.
All these people who won, or almost won, had this in common: they smashed the established parties. Trump won despite

First Report of the Causal Agent of Huanglongbing ("Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus") Infecting Kumquat in Taiwan.
Huanglongbing (greening) disease caused by a nonculturable, phloem-limited bacterium is a severe disease of citrus. On the basis of the influence of temperature on host symptoms and the causal agent, this disease can be categorized as Asian caused by "Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus", African caused by "Ca. L. africanus", and American caused by "Ca. L. americanus". Kumquat (Fortunella margarita (Lour.) Swingle), a member of the Rutaceae is an economically important crop for export and local consumption in Taiwan. Recently, a Huanglongbing-like disease was found on kumquat in Yilan County, the largest kumquat-producing area in northeastern Taiwan. Even though the disease has been reported on Citrus spp. from Taiwan, it has never been reported on kumquat.Arrow Video To Release THE ADVENTURES OF BUCKAROO BANZAI: ACROSS THE 8TH DIMENSION on Blu-Ray

theft into the populace. As a result, Paran Katar established the "Hawk-Police" (or "Wingmen"). Amongst the first Wingmen was Paran's son, Katar Hol. Leading a colorful career, Katar and his partner Shayera Hol, were sent to Earth, where they served as goodwill ambassadors for their home planet following the "Invasion!" incident and remained for some time fighting both human and alien criminals; dubbed by the press as Hawkman and Hawkwoman during a time when the original Hawkman and Hawkgirl were trapped in Asgard with the Justice Society of America. While Thanagar later developed the Elite Hawkmen Force, an elite squad of Wingmen, the planetary government continued to be expansionist and eventually Hawkman and Hawkwoman claimed sanctuary on Earth.
In the Rann-Thanagar War, the planet's surface was devastated in acatyclysm after the leader of a rogue group of Thanagarians, during a battle with Adam Strange, teleported the planet Rann to the Thanagarian system, hoping to create a dictatorship between the two worlds. Believing that the sudden appearance of Rann had caused Thanagar's orbit to move closer to the sun where its surface was ravaged by heat, war erupted between the Thanagarian refugees and the Rannians.
During a battle between the factions, the forces of Rann and Thanagar were faced with a fracture in space that resembled those that were seen during the Crisis on Infinite Earths.
It was later discovered that the villainous Superboy-Prime had actually forced Thanagar out of orbit and Adam Strange united the warring factions of L.E.G.I.O.N., Thanagar, Rann, and New Cronus into a combined force

properly advised of his Miranda rights, and at no time did Miller request an attorney. As
to Miller's statement that he preferred to talk when he was rested, the court noted at most
this was merely an indication of Miller's preference, and was not an unequivocal exercise
of his Miranda rights, since he agreed to answer questions after making the statement.
¶30 We conclude there was substantial credible evidence to support the court's conclusion
that Miller voluntarily talked with the officer. Miller was properly advised of his Miranda
rights prior to his interview, and although Miller was confined to a gurney, the interview
was not coercive. Miller's statement that he preferred to talk after he was rested was not an

One important mechanism for functional innovation during evolution is the duplication of genes and entire genomes. Evidence is accumulating that during the evolution of vertebrates from early deuterostome ancestors entire genomes were duplicated through two rounds of duplications (the 'one-to-two-to-four' rule). The first genome duplication in chordate evolution might predate the Cambrian explosion. The second genome duplication possibly dates back to the early Devonian. Recent data suggest that later in the Devonian, the fish genome was duplicated for a third time to produce up to eight copies of the original deuterostome genome. This last duplication took place after the two major radiations of jawed vertebrate life, the ray-finned fish (Actinopterygia)

The eleven variables were: gender, years of education, emotional problems in the month before the bombing, being in Market Street at the time, being injured, seeing people die, emotional response at the time, thinking you would die, feeling part of the community, long-term physical health problems and long-term financial problems. Together these account for 42% of variance in PDS scores, still considerably less than the 63% accounted for by the six cognitive model variables, which are: rumination, thought-emotion suppression, nowness of the memory, a muddled memory, negative beliefs about oneself and the symptoms of PTSD (PTCI- Factor A), and beliefs about the world being an unsafe place (PTCI- Factor B).

He first saw her in the elevator. It was love at first sight. But there was something about her face...he'd seen her before, that's for sure. Only he couldn't tell.
Well, like all love stories, luckily for him, turned out she was attracted to him as well. And so it all began with a first 'hi' and subsequent meetings in the elevator, amidst the other people. And then the first date happened.

He pulled the chair for her. Why did all restaurants play Kenny G? He would've preferred something livelier. Butears.
"Meera Sachdev. St. Anthony's. Right?"
He mutely nodded, not knowing what to say.
"And know what? You can tell her too. She won't mind. After all, she still has that card of yours. she still talks about it. Tell her in person. She'll be happy. And..this time you might even get a 'yes'. For her daughter, of course."
She reached out and took his hand. They laughed. He still couldn't believe his ears.

days, Pearce had nothing but admiration for the Broncos' playmaker after the full-time siren.
"He went really good; I thought he was close to one of the best players on the field," Pearce told NRL.com.
"He scored two tries and constantly kept threatening the line and he's a tough little bloke too.
"He reminds me a bit of Cooper Cronk – he looks a bit like him – but I thought he was really good. He was pretty impressive out there tonight.”
Hunt displayed Cronk-like footwork, vision and trickery by taking the line on to score two tries against the Chooks. He also made three line breaks, two try assists and pulled off some ruthless defence with 15 tackles.
The Broncos playmaker seemed to have his hands on everything against the defending premiers,sharply as hours of therapy were racked up and channelled into song. Frankly, one quails at the prospect of Charlotte Church's forthcoming record.
Adolescence was so two years ago for the former tomboy vixen Avril Lavigne.

identify the pleading involved. Yet, the First Amended Complaint, unlike the original version, did not allege that the Plan's lawyers had participated in the adoption of the MAP. All that the First Amended Complaint alleged was that, in their capacity as the Plan's regular counsel, the lawyers had improperly advised the Plan not to pay the Townsends' claims.3 The Plan's lawyers undoubtedly contributed to the confusion by failing to advise the district court, in their request for sanctions, that the Townsends' amended complaint no longer alleged that the Plan's counsel had played a role in the adoption of the MAP.4

Preliminarily, we address the district court's apparent conclusion that the claim against the Plan's attorneys was included for an improper purpose. We note firstfirst five years of Rule 11 litigation produced over a thousand published opinions interpreting the Rule.

The majority's opinion is a straightforward gutting of Rule 11. Before analyzing the court's opinion, it is worth restating the case.

The Townsends' original Complaint, filed December 18, 1986, alleged that the defendants Robert Wilson and John Reitman were a partnership and that Robert Wilson had advised the Plan "to adopt MAP, knowing that it was not in the best interests of Plan beneficiaries." This allegation was amplified by the Townsends' First Amended Complaint which asserted that all the defendants, including Wilson, Reitman

The subscale of activity contains 20 items and the subscale of the symptoms involves 5 items. The maximum score is 60 in the subscale of activity and 15 in the subscale of symptoms and the total score of the questionnaire is 75. The answer for each item is based on four-point Likert Scale.\[[@ref21]\] The English version of the questionnaire was translated by two official translators in Persian, and a joint original version was gained from two Persian translated versions of the questionnaire. The resulting version was then re-translated into English by two native translators who were fluent in both Persian and English, and an English version was obtained. Two English transcripts obtained in the previous stage were matched by the research group with the original version of thequestionnaire in terms of the concept. An English version was also sent to the original designer of the questionnaire to confirm the translation of the questionnaire into Persian in English. To make a preliminary assessment of the ability to understand the items, questions, concepts, interpretations, and perceptions of individuals, the Persian form of the questionnaire was introduced to 30 pregnant women with definite PGP. They were requested to express their opinions on being legible, clear, writing style and grammar, dictation of words, and ease of completing this tool. The ambiguities mentioned in the final Persian version were corrected after reviewing the completed questionnaires.
The PGP is diagnosed based on the clinical test of ASLR. To this end, the pregnant woman is placed in a supine position while the legs

According to witnesses, Harris later approached Armstrong and punched him in the face. Witnesses also reportedly told police that Harris stood over him, hitting him in the face several more times. He also allegedly kicked and stomped on him.
Harris then left the area. Police identified and located Harris at his home nearby.
He reportedly told police that Armstrong punched him first, hitting him in the neck. He denied striking the man when he was down.
Armstrong was taken to the hospital with a broken nose and brain injuries. He later died.

Why are they staying up?
In Xherdan Shaqiri, Jack Butland and Joe Allen, Stoke may possess a spine of enough experience and quality to see them over the line. Shaqiri scored a hat-trick at the last World Cup and could enter another for Switzerland in peak form - he has scored three goals and supplied an assist in Lambert's five games.
BBC commentator Jonathan Pearce: "They are entering a tough run of six games. There aren't enough young legs in the squad. Shaqiri can't keep coming up with 'worldies'. I can only see two more wins and, if they have to win at Swansea on the last day to stay up, they'll be in the Championship."

Bar Counsel's letters of February 13 and 20 and March 2 and 10, 1998, together with a subpoena for records relating to the NationsBank Trust Account. Respondent failed to respond to Bar Counsel's letters or honor the subpoena.
56. Based on representations in Respondent's answer that the NationsBank Trust Account was "one of [his] Trust Accounts" and that he had other IOLTA and "real" attorney trust accounts, Bar Counsel sent a letter and subpoena to Respondent dated October 26, 1998, directing him to produce his records for each trust and/or IOLTA account that he had maintained during the period from June 1995 through February 1998. Bar Counsel previously had requested such records by letters and subpoenas dated April 29 and July 22, 1997 and March 31, 1998.
57. On October30, 1998, a process server personally served Bar Counsel's October 26, 1998 letter and subpoena upon Respondent. On November 16, 1998, the return date "on" the subpoena, Respondent requested an additional week in which to respond to the subpoena. The extension was granted, but Respondent failed to respond.
58. On December 2, 1998, Bar Counsel filed a motion with the District of Columbia Court of Appeals (the "Court") to enforce the subpoena duces tecum. Respondent did not oppose or otherwise respond to the motion.
59. By order dated December 21, 1998, the Court granted Bar Counsel's motion and directed Respondent to produce all documents and files described in Bar Counsel's subpoena within 10 days from the date of the order. On that date, Bar Counsel sent copies of the Court's

order to Respondent by facsimile and mail. The fax history report reflects that Respondent's office received a copy of the Court's order, together with Bar Counsel's cover letter, at 4:28 p.m. on December 21, 1998.
60. Respondent did not produce any document or file in response to the Court's order. Instead, he sent a letter dated January 7, 1999, acknowledging that he was "(unintentionally) in contempt of the Court's Order on the documents." He then made various explanations for his failure to comply with the Court's order and indicated that he would comply.
61. By letter dated January 11, 1999, Respondent acknowledged that he still had not produced any documents responsive to the subpoena, as directed by the Court. However, he promised to do so by the next day. He12, 1999, the Court directed Respondent to show cause why he should not be held in civil contempt.
III. ANALYSIS AND DISCUSSION
A. Bar Docket No. 436-96: Count One
(Commingling/Dishonesty/Failure to Maintain Complete Records)
1. Commingling. Respondent violated Rule 1.15(a) prohibiting commingling as he failed to "hold property of clients or third persons that is in the lawyer's possession in connection with a representation separate from the lawyer's own property." Id. The evidence clearly established that Respondent commingled funds entrusted to him as a lawyer by clients and third parties with his own earned fees and other personal assets in his NationsBank Trust Account. Respondent's defense that he used this trust account as a "triage account" into which all incoming funds were deposited for a short period of time before being redeposited

and all were accounted for, they returned to the mouth of the bay. By that time, another charter boat, D'bora, had answered the emergency call and was in the process of picking up the remainder of Midas' passengers from the island.
Freedom 3 went to the nearby port of Sikakap to report the incident and further assess the damage and situation. They then returned to the Macaroniâ??s area to see if they could be of assistance. They found that the Macaroni's Surf Resort had been severely damaged and abandoned. Midas had burned to the ground with nearly nothing remaining. They then returned to Sikakap where D'bora delivered the remaining Midas passengers and crew. Freedom 3, while sustaining some damage, but was determined to be fully seaworthy by the captaingave a hint of her thoughts on the criminal cases, particularly as they involved Ronald H. Lipscomb, the developer who was expected to be the state prosecutor's star witness against her but never took the stand.
"The bad choice I made was getting in a relationship with Ron Lipscomb," said Dixon, who dated Lipscomb while she was president of the City Council and voted on a spending panel to award tax breaks to his projects.
"If he had testified," she said, "I would have testified."
At a hearing today, Dixon's attorneys will argue that the mayor deserves a new trial because of juror misconduct, coercive instructions from the trial judge and confusion they believe resulted from jurors' being instructed to ignore large chunks of testimony about Lipscomb.
If those arguments fail, Dixon

"I don't feel I fit well with the Sinclair News model," he continued. "It has been an unbelievable run. More than any Newsman can ask for and that is all do (sic) to you."
Braun's tenure at WKRC began in the fall of 1984, according to the station's website. Braun started as a weekend anchor. Two years later, he took the helm of anchor for "Live at 7," a new program described by the station as "entertaining as well as informative."
From there, he assumed the evening anchor role, working the late afternoon and 11 p.m. newscasts for some 30 years.
"I promise to do my best to answer everyone but it may take some time. Thank you all for the love and support," he said in the WednesdayBraun Show,” for 17 years, ending in 1984. Before that, he was a sidekick on the “50-50 Club” hosted by legendary Cincinnati broadcaster Ruth Lyons, which ended its run in 1967.
Viewers tuned in to see Braun’s cast of singers and musicians and his celebrity guests, who included comedians Bob Hope and Red Skelton, TV host Dick Clark, Tony Bennett, Bill Cosby, Ronald and Nancy Reagan, Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford, Barry Manilow, Lucille Ball and the Supremes.
Bob Braun also had several movie credits, including "Die Hard 2."
Early in his working life, Rob Braun tried to distance himself from television. He opened a food concession business with his brother, working at events such as Cincinnati's River Fest, fairs and festivals.

he thought everything was "regular", but Wozniacki added: "It's the only way she can win."
She then mimicked the grunts.
Afterwards she complained that her opponent was "a player that tries to get into your head."
She also told Danish TV that her opponent had used "unfair methods."
"(I) just tried to let him know to pay attention to her grunting because she'll hit the ball and two seconds later when the ball is on my side and I'm right about to hit, she'll start grunting and make a noise," the Dane told reporters.
"And she will change the grunt according to what she feels like."
Asked if she thought her opponent was grunting deliberately, Wozniacki responded: "I think that she didn't do it in the second set, so..."
The spat overshadowed a relatively routinevictory for the 27-year-old.
She now plays a former Australian Open champion, Angelique Kerber, in the last eight on Friday.
The German came from a set down to beat Johanna Konta 1-6, 6-1, 6-3.
The woman Wozniacki beat in Melbourne, Simona Halep, is also through beating Anastasija Sevastova 6-4, 6-3, keeping alive the possibility of a replay of the Australian Open final.
Halep shrugged off injury concerns coming into the match about an ankle injury which had kept her out of action since Melbourne.
She seemed relatively untroubled breaking her opponent's serve late in each set to advance to the last eight.
"I'm really glad that I could finish it in two sets and play like I played," said Halep.

A report prepared for the Alberta Department of Municipal Affairs has concluded Peter Kelly acted in contravention of the Alberta Municipal Government Act before he was hired as the chief administrative officer for Charlottetown.
Kelly, the former mayor of Halifax, served as CAO of Westlock Co., Alta., from September 2014 until March 2016. He was brought to Charlottetown in May 2016 to be its new CAO, a position that was made permanent when his one-year probation period expired in June.
Shortly after Kelly left Westlock County, allegations were brought forward from the county's former chief financial officer that Kelly had authorized $390,570 in non-budgeted spending without proper council approval. In response to this and other municipal issues, Westlock County council ended up asking the Alberta government to conduct a review.
Thatof the Horizon North project, under Kelly's direction, led to a write-off of more than $200,000 for the county when development costs far exceeded potential resale value of the lot.
"In apparent enthusiasm for economic development, former CAO Kelly acted without proper authority and failed to advise council of their legislative responsibilities, such as requiring advertising when considering selling land for less than market value, and approving unbudgeted expenditures," the report states.
The report does note Kelly "was held in high regard by some Westlock County council members who truly appreciated his style. In one comment shared with the inspectors, a council member stated that Mr. Kelly was 'very responsible.'"
Charlottetown council reviewing report
Charlottetown Mayor Clifford Lee has supported Kelly throughout the Westlock controversy, at one point echoing an assessment from

I always thought Springfield was supposed to be Los Angeles but Oregon definitely makes sense.
David Mirkin, one of the main producers on the show went to my film school in LA. Rumor has it that Moe's tavern was supposedly based off this dive bar outside campus which, upon entering in 2007 was a doppelganger for Moe's -- 2 old pool tables, stained glass windows over bar, old carpeting, and circular leather booth tables (most notably featured in the episode where Moe opens his restaurant "uncle moe's family feedbag" -- or something like that.)
In 2008 when I became legally able to drink they redesigned fireside and made it this trendy bar called "Tomkin Square." They took out the pool(R-KS), and Patty Murray (D-WA), among others, giving it a similar bipartisan base as the transparency bill.
And like that bill, the REACH Act is less about changing course than about entrenching reforms the Obama administration has already initiated. In this case, Collins and Coons are interested in making permanent Shah and his successor Gayle Smith's efforts to refocus USAID on reducing child and maternal mortality.
Many of the reforms derived from recommendations made by a Blue Ribbon Panel Shah appointed in 2013, including creating the position of child and maternal survival coordinator who can aggressively scale up programs with demonstrative effectiveness in reducing child and maternal death, while canceling less effective measures.
Given the number of disparate government agencies working on these topics — USAID, National Institutes of Health, Centers

The government leader: "Jews had always been a problem in European countries. They had to be confined to ghettoes and periodically massacred.… Even after the massacre by the Nazis of Germany, they survived to continue to be a source of even greater problems for the world." Those are the words of former Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad speaking at a conference, but they could just as well have appeared in the infamous Nazi-era Der Sturmer newspaper, whose tagline read, "Die Juden Sind Unser Unglueck" ("The JewsAre Our Misfortune").
Another government leader: "The Jews have no historical or religious ties to the Temple Mount or the Western Wall. There is no archeological evidence that the Temple Mount was built during the period of King Solomon." That was the deputy minister of information for the Palestinian Authority, Mutawakil Taha. Contrast this to what the Supreme Muslim Council said about the very same site in its 1924-53 official guide to Jerusalem: "Its sanctity [Dome of the Rock] dates from the earliest times. Its identity with the site of Solomon's Temple is beyond dispute."
The economist: "All Jews have a certain gene … that distinguishes them from others." That remark, reminiscent of the master-race thinking of Nazi Germany, comes from Thilo Sarrazin, an economist who once sat on the

Among conventional laundry treatment apparatuses, there is an apparatus equipped with a balancer for improving an unbalanced state of a drum. A balancer incorporated in conventional laundry treatment apparatuses is a ball balancer or a fluid balancer in which a ball or fluid is contained in a housing fixed to a drum.
When a drum is in the unbalanced state, the drum exhibits the highest rotational speed when laundry incurring the unbalanced state passes through the lowest point of the rotational orbit of the drum and exhibits the lowest rotational speed when the laundry incurring the unbalanced state passes through the highest point of the rotational orbit of the drum.
Therefore, the ball balancer or the fluid balancer incorporated inthem were the hospitality operations of the Trident Villas and Spa in Jamaica, Reggae Beach, and Blue Lagoon.

Commodities boom
Similar to the experience of the late 1990s, Lee-Chin again has shied away from investing in commodities and the energy market boom. He has specifically stated that "We [AIC] do not like commodities-type businesses nor most high-tech companies simply because they are implicitly poor enterprises which we would not want to hold for the long term".
Again, this strategy has meant that AIC has significantly underperformed the S&P index, but Lee-Chin stated in 2006 that he believed that the current boom is just
