to traditional Chinese cultural standards and introduces elements of western practice. The patient tower is positioned to the south to reduce shadows on the surrounding properties, and patient rooms all face south, a typical featurein Chinese culture.
Wrapping around an existing neighbouring structure to the south, the patient tower rooms redirect patients'views around the building to enhance visual access from the bed. This orientation naturally capitalises upon Tianjin's summer winds and protects patient rooms from cold winter winds, while the staff core is located to the north.
The design enhances porosity by increasing the opportunities for exterior access throughout the building, thus improving interior spatial quality and reducing elevator demand to the ground floor. In the patient tower, inset balconies are provided on each level for staff on the westin the ocean? Who are the inhabitants of the Baltic Sea? Whale park answers all those and other questions showing you the mysterious underwater world.

In Indian Cosmology, dvīpa (Devnagari: द्वीप "peninsula, island"; also mahadvipa "great island") is the term for the major divisions of the terrestrial sphere, sometimes translated as "continents".
Dvīpa has a further meaning than "island" and "continent". "Dvipa" also means "planets" situated in the ocean of outer space.
"The "planets" are called "dvīpas". Outer space is like an ocean of air. Just as there are islands in the watery ocean, these planets in the ocean of space are called dvīpas, or islands in outer space" (Chaitanya Caritamrita Madhya 20.218, Purport)
There are 7 dvipas. The list of seven (sapta-dvipa) is (e.g. Mahabharata 6.604 ):

Much has been said about the harmony of the opening to Wagner's opera Tristan und Isolde, which Taruskin (2010, p.540) calls "perhaps the most famous, surely the most commented-on, single phrase of music ever written." However, Wagner’s strategic use of silences between phrases intensifies the troubled ambiguity of the music: "The chord that fills the ensuing silence in the listener’s inner ear… is the unstated – indeed never to be stated, and ultimately needless to be stated – tonicdeep. The words of St John are alive in the music, and through these sounds Messiaen reveals himself and his vision.An extreme example from 1952 is 4′33″, an experimental musical work by avant-garde composer John Cage, incorporating ambient sounds not foreseeable by the composer. Though first performed on the piano, the piece was composed for any instrument or instruments and is structured in three movements. The length of each movement is not fixed by the composer, but the total length of the combination of three movements is. The score instructs the performer(s) to remain silent throughout the piece.
There are telling examples of the use of silence in jazz. A frequently used effect, known as "stop-time", places silences at moments where listeners or dancers might expect a strong beat,

THE WAVE of rioting at the time of the Mandal Commission showed that the goal of reservation had not simply been unfulfilled, but totally distorted. It revealed, among other things, the degree to which educated upper caste youth had gotten into the habit of considering the Government administration not as ``public service'' but as a source of employment - with lucrative salaries and pensions, not to mention ample scope for bribe-taking.
Bribery - a major theme of Phule's polemical 19th century writings - has not apparently changed very much. There are undoubtedly many honest officials, but they are fighting a system that gives them very little scope, one which binds together politicians and bureaucrats in a nexus of corruption.

CTV did not identify the women or show their faces. Reuters was unable to verify the claims made by CTV.
One of the women said she met Brown in a bar more than 10 years ago when she was in high school, that he invited her to his home, provided her with alcohol, even though she was under the drinking age, exposed himself and asked her to perform a sexual act.
The second, who said she worked for Brown in his office when he was a member of parliament, described an incident in which he kissed her when she was drunk.
Five aides to Brown said on Twitter that they had resigned after learning of the allegations earlier on Wednesday.

Canada's time for action
Earlier this year, it was revealed that the Prime Minister's Office had suspended the processing of Syrian refugees citing security concerns. The details of this secret audit were never fully revealed, however according to a spokesperson for then minister Chris Alexander, the Canadian government resumed the processing of Syrian Government Assisted Refugees "only after there was confidence that our procedures were adequate to identify those vulnerable persons in most need of protection while screening out threats to Canada."
When evaluating security threats, Canadians would do well to look at the evidence. All of the identified attackers from Paris appear tocan they cause large economic problems, they have caused such problems.
Even prior to the Great Depression, thousands of banks failed in America. This was not because they were unit banks or undiversified, it was because they had invested in long-term illiquid assets, such as farm land and mortgages tied to farm land, whose prices declined. They declined because they had been driven up by World War I and the accompanying excessive creation of means of payment by the central bank (the Fed). During the 1920s, the Fed created funds that flowed into stocks financed by loans issued, improperly, by banks, since stocks are long-term assets. History shows again and again that banks cannot safely issue redeemable bank notes against long-term assets. Indeed, the stock market crash in 1929

Trump met with Laborers' boss Terry O'Sullivan, Building Trade Union head Sean McGarvey, Carpenters' Union president Mark McManus and other leaders in the Oval Office.
Afterward, the union leaders assembled outside the White House to issue a brief statement to the press.

As a result, 40% to 50% of Jews in France, Belgium and Hungary said they were considering emigrating as they no longer felt safe.
The main points of the survey are included in the Jewish People Policy Institute's Annual Assessment report, which was presented to the government on Sunday. According to the report, Europe's Jews are more pessimistic in regards to their future than they are willing to admit, and Jews all over the continent do not feel safe.
According to the report's authors, Europe's Jews may be reaching the conclusion that the situation will only get worse. According to the report's figures, some 300 Jewish families immigrated from France to Montreal recently, andJohanna Konta has always believed in herself.

This was as good as Konta can play, and a deal better than Stephens was managing in response. If Konta had found her best tennis to beat Vekic in the fourth round, this was a notch up. Her challenge was to sustain a level that must have surprised even her – and probably her low-key coach, Dimitri Zavialoff.
There was no hiding place for Stephens in the second set, as Konta broke her for the third time. Down a set and 1-3 with ball in hand, the American looked distinctly uninterested until she found a couple of huge forehands and a good serve to hold to love.

Server Market Changes Lead to End of Itanium Development at Microsoft
The arrival of Intel's Nehalem-EX has pretty much signaled the end of Microsoft's support. The high-end x86 server market is changing, with many servers now sporting features previously available only in Itanium.
Microsoft has announced it will no longer support further development for Intel's Itanium processor, putting the products it currently has in the server market into maintenance status for the next three years and ending support in eight years.
Dan Reger, senior technical product manager at Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), made the announcement in a blog post on Friday. Windows Server 2008 R2, SQL Server 2008 R2 and Visual Studio 2010 will be the last versions of those products to support the Intel Itanium architecture.
Current support for Itanium will remainthe defendant in Orange County during the month of June 1960. Victim A informed the defendant that she had no place to go whereupon the defendant told her that she could stay with the defendant in Los Angeles and keep house for the latter.
Pursuant to this invitation, the victim came to the residence of defendant in July 1960. This residence was occupied by the defendant, her husband, Speros Steve Sarras, and a man named Joe. The first two or three weeks of her stay at the defendant's residence passed without incident. However, during this time the defendant dyed the victim's hair and bought clothing for her. Subsequently, the defendant asked victim A if she would like to go out drinking and dining with a man for money.

the defendant introduced her to a woman occupant and asked if a girl was needed. The woman occupant replied that there would be an opening in about one week. About September 1, 1960, victim A began work, as a prostitute, at this house. Either the defendant or Sarras would drive victim A to this house three mornings a week and would pick her up in the evenings. While at this house of prostitution victim A engaged in about 35 acts of sexual intercourse a day with different men for money. When either the defendant or Sarras arrived to pick her up in the evening she would give her total receipts to the one or the other, depending upon which one called for her. She continued to work underto victim B the "wash and disease discovery technique" by using a regular male customer as a "guinea pig." The three of them disrobed and went to bed together. The defendant then engaged in an act of sexual intercourse with the male customer while victim B watched. The defendant was paid $20 by the male customer. Later that day the defendant sent victim B to an apartment where the latter had sexual intercourse with a man for which she received $25. Victim B had acts of sexual intercourse with two different men at the residence of the defendant, for which she received a total of $45. She gave the money received from her illegal transactions to the defendant or to Sarras, the defendant's husband. The defendant arranged additional

Victim B continued in these activities for about two weeks during which time she engaged in approximately 100 acts of sexual intercourse with different men for which she received about $2,000, all of which she turned over to the defendant or to Sarras, the defendant's husband.
About September 24, 1960, victims A and B left the State of California. They returned to Los Angeles in 1962 and took up residence at the home of the father-in-law of victim A. The defendant came to the home of the father-in- law and there discussed with the victims the prospect of their returning to work for the defendantThe defendant gave the address of this apartment to victims A and B and told them to go there for the purpose of engaging in acts of prostitution. Both victims engaged in acts of sexual intercourse for money with various men at this location and turned over the money received for their services to the Negro maid. The victims were arrested at the Wilton Place apartment.
The information charged the defendant solely and as a principal with the crimes of pimping and pandering and no reference is made therein to defendant's husband, Speros Steve Sarras. There is a reference, however, in the reporter's transcript to the trial, on May 21st, 22nd and 27th, 1963, of the case of People of the State of California v. Speros Steve Sarras.

president called Senator Corker on Monday afternoon and asked him to reconsider his decision not to seek reelection and reaffirmed that he would have endorsed him, as he has said many times,” Womack said in a statement.
Corker was a prominent supporter of Trump's 2016 campaign, and Trump considered him a potential running mate and secretary of state. Corker was one of only a few senators to develop a personal relationship with Trump and his family, but tensions between the two men flared over the summer.
In August, Corker criticized Trump's handling of the deadly white-supremacist rally in Charlottesville, saying, “The president has not yet been able to demonstrate the stability nor some of the competence that he needs to demonstrate in order to be successful.”

Paul Hollis
Paul Bryan Hollis (born September 1, 1972) is a Republican member of the Louisiana House of Representatives for the revised 104th District in St. Tammany Parish in southeastern Louisiana.
A son of the late State Senator Ken Hollis, Paul Hollis defeated fellow Republican Christopher Trahan, 3,905 votes (56 percent) to 3,096 (44 percent) in the nonpartisan blanket primary held on October 22, 2011.
Hollis was an announced candidate for the United States Senate election in Louisiana, 2014, but withdrew from the race in July. Victory went to another Republican, the physician and U.S. Representative Bill Cassidy of Baton Rouge.
Background
Paul Hollis was born in Metairie in Jefferson Parish, the third son of Judy and Ken Hollis. He graduated in 1990 from Grace King High School in Metairie, at which heRain the winner at Old Trafford
England's second NatWest International Twenty20 against South Africa was abandoned after the weather allowed only one short, frantic session at Old Trafford.
England were 29 for two after 4.1 overs of their reply to South Africa's 77 for five in a match reduced to nine overs per side when steady rain began to fall.
A result would have been recorded had another five balls been bowled - and England would have won had they added another 13 - but South Africa will still lead the series 1-0 heading to the third match at Edgbaston.
The match had been delayed by two and a quarter hours by earlier rain but there was still a certain familiarity to South Africa's batting as Hashim Amla again dominated. The prolific

on the success of the larger team. I did this through the “celebrate before you evaluate” process discussed above. I asked each one of them to recognize a legitimate success their teams had during that period and talk about it publicly. The discussion created a bombardment of support from the others in the meeting. Team members began to add their support and validation to the success stories.
It took several months of this type of meeting before the real change began to take root. The tone of the meeting became lighter and friendlier. There was palpable happiness within the team, and things started to change. The team generated creative solutions to problems tolerated previously. They started to work with each other to create cross-functional solutions. We saw a 56%question about that.

With new-found energy, we quickly ascended the rest of the mountain to our basecamp known as Station Three. Set just under the crest of a hill, Station Three is in the heart of Tamaraw country. As Tamaraw populations have blinked out across the island, the one here in Mounts Iglit-Baco National Park have grown steadily over the years thanks to protection, community engagement and annual monitoring. However, the global population remains below 450, and 413 of those are within 1 kilometer of Station Three.
The scenery of Mounts Iglit-Baco National Park never seems to tire, and round every bend a new vistahard battle and it will take the collective efforts of everyone. I’m looking forward to helping, and excited that such a dedicated group of partners is willing to work together for the Tamaraw.

Last updated on .From the section Chelsea
Chelsea manager Antonio Conte says he is a "tailor" who will make the "best dress" for Chelsea to get them back into the Champions League.
He also confirmed that John Terry will continue as captain at Stamford Bridge after signing a new deal in May.
Conte was speaking at his first news conference since being unveiled as Chelsea manager.
"Chelsea belongs in the Champions League and we must stay there," he said.
"I know only the road to take the club back to competing and winning the title - work, work, work.
"The coach is a tailor who must make the best dress for the team. Last season in 10th was a bad season, but we must think to the present."
Conte, who took his first training sessionat the club on Wednesday, said the "right spirit" was vital for Chelsea as they push to get back into the Champions League.
The former Italy national team manager also said he would call on another Italian for tips about the Premier League - Leicester City's former Chelsea boss Claudio Ranieri: "He is a lovely man and I will ask him for a bit of advice."
Terry still important
Conte said that he and the club "took the decision together" to offer captain John Terry a one-year contract extension after the Italian was appointed one month before Terry's contract expired.
"I repeat, John Terry is an important player for me, the club and the fans," he said.

This solution is a start. However, it fails to understand and address three important factors happening in the American economy right now:
The first is the significant mismatch between the number of adults in the labor force and the number of jobs, as expressed by the unemployment rate and the labor participation rate in the United States seen in Section 2. The second is the very large number of people who are receiving various payments from a hodge podge of government programs, including retirees, those of disabilities, those receiving unemployment benefits, those on various forms of welfare, etc. The significant loss of jobs that has already started to occur, and is about to accelerate in the United States, due to automation, artificial intelligence, computerization, robots,Donald Trump's Long Embrace Of Vladimir Putin

Donald Trump's praise of Russian President Vladimir Putin is again stirring up controversy after he gave an interview Thursday to state-funded Russian Television.
Trump talked to former CNN host Larry King, who now hosts a show on RT America, for about 10 minutes. The Republican candidate again cast doubt on whether Russia was behind the hacking of the Democratic National Committee, a belief at odds with U.S. intelligence officials.
That's also despite having encouraged Russia to "find" Clinton's emails just six weeks ago.
"Russia, if you're listening," Trump said July 27, "I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press."

blowback, Trump claimed he was just being "sarcastic."
Trump's appearance on the controversial television station could exacerbate an already icy relationship with the U.S. political press. Just this week, his campaign lifted a long-standing ban on certain news organizations — including the Washington Post, Politico, Buzzfeed and others — from covering his campaign — while giving wide access and many interviews to the conservative or alt-right press.
YouTube
Trump's campaign manager Kellyanne Conway said on CNN and CBS Friday morning the interview was simply done as a favor to King and that they thought it would appear on his podcast, not Russian television.
"What Larry King does with the interview content is up to him; we have nothing to do with it," the Trump campaign told NPR's Sarah McCammon.
The interview came aday after Trump repeatedly praised Putin during NBC's Commander-In-Chief Forum.
"If he says great things about me, I'm going to say great things about him," Trump said at the Wednesday event, even calling the Russian president "a leader, far more than our president has been a leader."
Vice presidential nominee Indiana Gov. Mike Pence backed up those sentiments from his running mate, telling CNN that it was "inarguable" that Putin was a stronger leader than President Obama.
Conway told CBS that Trump wasn't "praising him so much as saying we'll work with people, anybody who wants to help-- help stop the advance of ISIS will be welcome in the Trump/Pence administration to do so."

Putin doesn't have a good image in the United States, either. Trump boasted during the NBC forum that the Russian leader has a purported 82 percent approval rating back home.
How Putin has gotten that approval rating might be troubling for many Americans.

In fact, most Americans have a very negative opinion of Putin. A May NBC/Wall Street Journal survey found 59 percent of Americans had an unfavorable opinion of Putin, while just 8 percent held a favorable view.

At the distal end of the strap portion, at a point where the first locking hole and the second locking hole coincide with each other, there is provided, with the use of a punch member of a cable tie tool, a protruded portion that protrudes through the first locking hole and into the second locking hole. The protruded portion makes engagement with a first inner wall surface of the first locking hole and a second inner wall surface of the second locking hole so that the distal end

However, in this cable tie locking structure, the protruded portion is formed by means of the punch member in a hollow conical or columnar shape. The protruded portion thus engages with the first inner wall surface of the first locking hole and the second inner wall surface of the second locking hole in a relatively small area. Therefore, when the cable tie being used has a relatively large width in the short-side direction of the strap portion in comparison to this area, there is a possibility that the protruded portion goes out of engagement and the distal end of the strap portion is released from the head portion, if thethe braising ingredients, bring to a boil, and simmer on low until the beef shreds easily (~2 hours) Remove beef from pot, and strain braising liquid into a separate bowl.

Other call signs hint at office location, including WX9GRB in Green Bay and WX4NHC at the National Hurricane Center. Still others represent more of the big picture, as in KC0SKY in Pleasant Hill, Missouri.”

Some famous dynasties will continue to influence the future of the nation, with the election of new deputies to the still warm Dáil seats vacated by their parents.
Fiona O'Malley takes up the reins from her father, PD founder Des, who was first elected to the Dáil in 1968. Des O'Malley is the nephew of the late Donogh O'Malley, a Fianna Fáil deputy from 1954-1968.
Niall Blaney keeps his famous family moniker alive after taking a seat in Donegal North East. Niall perpetuates a line begun by Neil Blaney, a deputy from 1927-1938, and 1943-1948, and continued by Harry Blaney, elected in 1996 and Neil T. Blaney, 1948-1996. Simon Coveney has taken the baton from father, Hugh, who was a deputy from 1981-1987 and 1994 until his recent death.
Other youngguns maintaining the bloodlines include Denis Naughten in Longford-Roscommon, the son of Liam, a former senator and Leas-Chathaoirleach and deputy from 1982-1989.
Mary Hanafin continues to carry the torch for father Des in DúLaoghaire; Beverley Cooper-Flynn takes on her father's mantle in Mayo and in the same constituency, Enda Kenny keeps father Henry's name alive. Seán Haughey, elected in Dublin North Central maintains his beleaguered family name.
Conor and Brian Lenihan are keeping their father's memory alive in Dublin South West and Dublin West respectively.
However, Mildred Fox, daughter of the late Johnny Fox, had to sweat out a recount in her Wicklow constituency with Labour's Nicky Kelly before retaining her seat. Of the 166 deputies elected to the 29th Dáil, 38 are related to former or current deputies. Eighteen are

Philippine Sea, USS Kidd (DDG 100)
Commander Neil Harris watched the sea from the starboard wing of his command, the USS Kidd. An Arleigh Burke class destroyer, the Kidd was the biggest and best ship Harris had ever commanded. In a moment of honesty, he admitted it was probably the largest ship he would ever command. Ten years a commander, there just wasn’t enough room on the list for him to go up much farther. He had hopes for the Zumwalt and her sisters but now it looked like there would only be three of the new DDG-1000 class of ships put into service. At 50, he was getting old for a sea command anyway.
He heard the hatch to the bridge open and felt rather than saw Lieutenant Commanderpoint, the air battle was out of the hands of the crew members in CIC. The Aegis system was designed for exactly this task. Compared to protecting a carrier strike group against a Russian alpha strike, this was a walk in the park. Four missiles were potentially targeted by up to 30 Surface to Air Missiles. Not all would hit, but the outcome was not in doubt. These missiles would not reach the Kidd. The roaring of the VLS was almost anti-climactic. Of the eight anti-missile missiles fired from the VLS, three missed their targets. However, that still meant all the incoming missiles were destroyed before they entered the close in range of the CIWS or even the longer-legged SeaRAM short-range missile defense.

scintilla of evidence, however, that either Pobog or Jasinski made any misrepresentation to Bell as to ownership of the car or in any other respect. In fact, it is undisputed that Pobog did not talk to Bell concerning the issuance of the policy and had no knowledge that the policy had been issued in the name of Jasinski until he reported to Bell the collision of February 6, 1953, which gave rise to this lawsuit. While Jasinski, at the suggestion of Omundsen, called on Bell at the latter's office relative to insurance for Pobog's car, he protested to Bell against issuance of the policy in his name and he, like Pobog, had no knowledge that the policy had been issued in his name until after the Pobog-Coyle collision.the Bank or anybody else. All of the evidence relative to the alleged misrepresentation is embodied in a telephone conversation between Omundsen and Bell and there is a conflict between the testimony of these two parties as to what was said. Omundsen categorically denied that he told Bell that Jasinski was the owner of the car, that title had been placed in his name or that it would be. On the other hand, Bell testified at one point that he was told by Omundsen that title had been placed in Jasinski and at another point that Omundsen merely stated that title would be placed in the name of Jasinski. If Omundsen's testimony is accepted, there was no misrepresentation. If it be rejected, however, it would have to be

But the ad placard at King and Portland — at least one metre wide — faces the sidewalk instead of the street, making it a major obstacle for pedestrians.
After our column, we got a note from the city saying it was resolved by taking down the fence, instead of the sign. That opened up the sidewalk but conveniently detoured around the real problem, which is the sign.
By turning it to face the sidewalk, it is more visible to passing traffic on the road, even if it has pedestrians wondering why so much sidewalk space is taken up by it.
It’s a sign that the city puts the demands of Astral on par with the needs of people for unimpeded sidewalk space.

This paper examines the well-being and career decision-making self-efficacy (CDMSE) of adolescents before and after leaving school, and tests for the changes in these variables as a result of leaving school. While at high school, 309 students were assessed on levels of school achievement, well-being (psychological distress, self-esteem, life satisfaction) and CDMSE. Nine months after leaving school, 168 of these students completed the above surveys and measures of their access to the latent (e.g. social contact, time structure) and manifest (i.e. financial) benefits of employment, and work commitment.

to resettle a refugee in the United States as it does to care for the same refugee in a neighboring country in the Middle East. The five-year cost to American taxpayers of resettling a single Middle Eastern refugee in the United States is conservatively estimated to be more than $64,000, compared with U.N. figures that indicate it costs about $5,300 to provide for that same refugee for five years in his native region.
Each refugee we bring to the United States means that eleven others are not being helped with that money.

The expenses first surfaced as Giuliani's two terms as mayor of New York drew to a close in 2001, when a city auditor stumbled across something unusual: $34,000 worth of travel expenses buried in the accounts of the New York City Loft Board.

his infidelities?
November 28, 2007
Kathleen Willey has written a book. And for that, she was on Fred's air. You can listen to the interview here and here.
For those who don't remember, in 1998 Kathleen Willey accused then-President Clinton of sexually assaulting her in the White House in 1993.
During the interview with Fred, she stated that she'd been offered a great deal of money from the tabloids for her story. She didn't take that money because she felt that it would damage her credibility.
Oops. Too late.
Take a look at what the Office of Independent Counsel (the good folks who spend tens of millions of dollars investigationg the Clinton White House in the late 90s) had to say about Willey's honesty.
Page 7:
The Independent Counsel agreed not to prosecute Willey for anyoffense arising out of the investigation, including false statements in her Jones deposition, so long as she cooperated fully and truthfully with the investigation. Following that first immunity agreement, Willey gave false information to the FBI about her sexual relationship with a former boyfriend, and acknowledged having lied about it when the agents confronted her with contradictory evidence. Following Willey’s acknowledgement, the Independent Counsel agreed not to prosecute her for false statements in this regard.
She acknowledged lying to the OIC and the FBI.
And then there's the contradictions with other OIC testimony. For instance Linda Tripp's. This is from Salon.com:
Tripp testified she saw Willey "a lot" the day of her meeting with Clinton. "A lot," she repeated. And she met Willey after the meeting, as planned, and described her

as being "very excited, happy, but flustered and completely overwhelmed by the event." Tripp said her face was "flushed," and she "smiled from ear to ear." Tripp said Willey related that she told Clinton "something to the effect that she was throwing herself" on his mercy, when he suddenly kissed her forcefully. "'His tongue was down my throat'" and "'I think I kissed him back,'" Tripp quoted Willey as saying. "His hands were all over her backside," and "he put her hand on his penis," Tripp claimed Willey told her. That night Willey and Tripp "discussed whether Willey would be a girlfriend of the president," said Tripp.
Hardly good news for Bill, but a far far cry from a sexual assault. And given the context of the feeding-frenzy atfast, Fred. This is from the Committee of Concerned Journalists. The CCJ's mission is described here:
The Starr Report differed in some key areas from the Drudge Report. Lewinsky testified to using the cigar sexually and to Clinton then putting it in his mouth and commenting on it. But according to Lewinsky's testimony there was no mutual masturbation and the meeting was in general less sordid than the leaks. There is also no support in the Starr Report for Drudge's allegation that Yassir Arafat was waiting in the Rose Garden when an encounter took place (the Drudge Report is not clear about what encounter it is writing about)[emphasis added]
So Fred was channelling the Drudge Report?? Oh, Fred. You gotta do better than that.

Capitol Hill veteran who staged a political comeback after losing his Senate leadership post because of racially insensitive remarks, plans to resign from office before the year is out.
With his decision, the Senate's No. 2 Republican will avoid a new ethics rule that takes effect by the end of the year, allowing him to pursue a lucrative lobbying job after a year's wait rather than after two years.
Take note of that: he has to resign before the year is out because the new law (the one that takes effect 2008) would make him wait an extra year before cashing in on his Senate connections.
The timing of Sen. Trent Lott’s (R-Miss.) resignation has opened legal questions about the date of the ensuing special election, and state Democrats might fightfor a date earlier than what the Republican governor is proposing.
Gov. Haley Barbour said in a statement Monday that he would schedule the special election for the same day as the November 2008 general election. State law, however, appears intended to require an earlier date if Lott retires this year, as he said he would.
And that's where the friction is found. It all rests on a technicality:
In an exception to the 90-day rule, the law says the governor “shall designate” the special election for the same day as the general election if a vacancy occurs the same calendar year as a statewide election. Mississippi had a statewide election earlier this month, so Barbour would be setting the special election for the next statewide election in 2008.

these words crossed my field of vision. That's a huge concession from Commando Kelly, doncha think?
But let's get back to the column. Jack seems to have had a change of mind regarding the so-called "flypaper" strategy. Take a look at the whole 8th paragraph:
Canadian columnist David Warren speculated some years ago that enticing al-Qaida to fight there was one of the reasons why President Bush decided to invade Iraq. The administration has made so many egregious mistakes that I doubt the "flypaper" strategy was deliberate. But it has worked out that way. It may have been a mistake for the United States to go to war in Iraq. But it's pretty clear now it was a blunder for al-Qaida to have done so.
To win the war on terror,which is it? Did she lie when she signed the affidavit or did she lie when she told the OIC investigators (and weren't these guys FBI? Just checking) that she lied?
For those who don't know, an affidavit is a sworn statement of fact. It's done under oath. So if Attorney Heidelbaugh believes that Juanita Broaddrick was raped by Bill Clinton, she also has to believe that Juanita Broaddrick has committed perjury.
But is the story of the rape true? Here's Salon.com in February, 1999 after the story made it on the Wall Street Journal's editorial page:
"This is a story that's been knocked down and discredited so many times, I was shocked to see it in the Journal today," says Jack Nelson, Washington bureau chief of the Los Angeles Times.

report that House managers were showing Starr's sealed "Jane Doe" material, Murray says. Later, in its Washington Wire column, the paper revealed that House Judiciary Committee counsel David Schippers had decided not to include the Broaddrick materials in the impeachment trial, since she had given different versions of the story and there was no evidence of obstruction of justice by the Clinton administration in the changed tales.
So the rape allegations weren't a part of the materials in the impeachment trial? And so much of that case was so sturdy, wasn't it? No charges on Whitewater, no charges on Travelgate. Just charges related to the blowjobs in the White House.
Given all the investigatory power of the OIC run by Kenneth Starr and they decided NOT to include the BroaddrickISI database with the keywords "climate change" (9).
The 928 papers were divided into six categories: explicit endorsement of the consensus position, evaluation of impacts, mitigation proposals, methods, paleoclimate analysis, and rejection of the consensus position. Of all the papers, 75% fell into the first three categories, either explicitly or implicitly accepting the consensus view; 25% dealt with methods or paleoclimate, taking no position on current anthropogenic climate change. Remarkably, none of the papers disagreed with the consensus position.
The Justice Department has reopened a long-dormant inquiry into the government's warrantless wiretapping program, a major policy shift only days into the tenure of new Attorney General Michael Mukasey.
The investigation by the department's Office of Professional Responsibility was shut down after the previous attorney general, Alberto Gonzales, refused to grant security

Also, I find this passage disturbing:
In a way, she adopted the Robin Hood ethos of Mr. Darkins. From 2002 through 2006, she distributed some $177,892 in city discretionary funds to interests ranging from churches and youth groups to "consultants," including some with criminal histories.
And, that brings us back round to then Council President, now Mayor, Luke Ravenstahl's "Reform Lite" (as called by the P-G).
Pittsburgh City Council had the opportunity to pass real reform on Council spending and end the walking around money (WAMs), but chose not to -- with the exception of Bill Peduto and Doug Shields. They had tried to amendto know Beth over the past couple of years, and I am thrilled that she is running for Congress. I know that Beth has the experience and the ability to promote values that are important to me – protecting the environment, improving government efficiency, and representing the people of Western, PA.
Through her family, Beth has spent her life immersed in public service. Beth has a teaching degree and she taught for several years before moving on to work as a consultant for Hafer & Associates. At Hafer & Associates, Beth helps government organizations work more efficiently for citizens without raising taxes.

The Greater Pittsburgh Nonprofit Partnership (GPNP) has partnered with Great Nonprofits, an organization based in San Francisco, to make Pittsburgh the first city in the nation to launch the Great Nonprofits website on November 8th, 2007.
On election day Agent Ska published somephotographs of Luke Ravenstahl and posse visiting a polling place.
While candidates may be allowed inside a polling place other than their own to act as a properly authorized poll watcher, no one is allowed to electioneer inside a polling place nor are any campaign materials (lit, T-shirts, buttons, etc.) allowed within a polling place.
Ska's pictures were mentioned at the Post-Gazette's Early Returns blog, she was interviewed on KDKA Radio andwhen he was four, Mum and I decided to trick him: she dressed up as Father Christmas and the idea was that she’d creep around the garden while he and I watched out the window in awe and wonder – he knew it was her straight away.
We went through a stage of making art at Christmas – drawing together or making short films where Dad would be the cameraman and my mum, brother and I would act out a few scenes. We still do it some years. Five years ago my brother grew a moustache and we all teased him mercilessly. In the end we dressed him up as Freddie Mercury and got him to climb through the window before we all got up and had a dance

What Happens When One of Your Coworkers Dies - ohjeez
http://thebillfold.com/2013/12/what-happens-when-one-of-your-coworkers-dies/
======
steven2012
One of my coworkers, my mentor and someone who taught me what it meant to be a
good programmer, was murdered by his wife, who also murdered their two
children and then killed herself.
It took place over a holiday, and I noticed he hadn't shown up afterwards.
After a couple of days, I asked my boss if he was on vacation, and he said no,
so I emailed him. His body and his family were found the next day by his
neighbors. I actually saw his face on the evening news and my heart started
racing, because they made it seem as though he was the murderer, but as events
came out, he and his beautiful children were the victims.
It was really horrible because hefor a jog one
day and an unknown heart defect dropped him dead before he hit the ground.
People were very broken up over it and donated food and all sorts of things to
his widow and kids. I think a small charity was set up in his name.
In another, nobody really knew the guy outside of his group. But he had had a
very bad cough for a few months that to be honest, had become kind of a
workplace annoyance and was blamed for everything from loss of productivity to
a rash of URIs that ran through the office for a few weeks. He didn't show up
one day and everybody assumed he had finally decided to take some time off and
attend his cough. The next day it was announced he had died.

There was no
further information and nobody outside of his immediate group and management
really knew anything about him or how to reach out to his family. His desk was
filled the next week.
Finally, a guy I knew and my friends all used to work with, broke off to try
his hand in the restaurant business. Things didn't go well and mired in debt
and suffering from some mental illness issues took his wife and daughter
hostage and committed suicide (his wife and kid made it out with very minor
wounds). I think everybody was in such shock over such a mild mannered person
doing such a crazy thing that people wanted to get over it as quickly as
possible and pretend like we all didn't know him at all.

How did those deaths affect your workplace? Dopeople try to hang out and talk
more or do people generally just carry on normally?

In the first case, everybody really took a day or two to come to terms that it
had happened. Work really ground to a halt. People showed up to work, but took
lots of time out of the office in coffee shops talking and processing the
event. We named a room after him and had some ceremonies, everybody showed up
to his funeral. It really took a few weeks for everything to get back to
normal.
In the other two people really just carried on pretty normally by the next day
or two.
In the last case, because of the way he went out, very violent and unpleasant,
I think there was definitely an effort on the part of people to just...forget
about him

or
early summer. Looking back, I think the endless ceremonies, reminiscing, room
naming...his office was a shrine for a couple months and nobody emptied it of
his personal affects until his widow came and asked...I think it extended out
the difficult feelings longer than it would have if everybody had been driven
back to work or gone on vacations or something.

My first day on the job I erased the whiteboard in my office. When a couple

great loss as well that we could never recover some key bits of source code

early in the morning and had a heart
attack.
Someone discovered the guy, called 911, and went about their business. Due to
some combination of bureaucratic bungling and security nonsense, the ambulance
folks didn't know someone had died, and were either turned away from the
building or taken to the wrong location in the building.
Long story short, the body wasn't removed until early evening. People thought
he was taking a nap. I always found that so sad. The poor guy probably had a
family and people who gave a shit about him, but the people around him
couldn't be bothered to treat him with respect.

Happened to me once early inand only knew because of his death?
He was a father. He surely comforted his children on the first day of school.
He went shopping for them on their birthdays. He had loved ones who grieved
for him. Loved ones who had no talent to describe how great he was to them,
but only knew he was great to them.
I still don't understand the oddness of my reaction, or why it still haunts
me. We are all born in a blur of a gigantic population, and he was simply
deleted from my inbox as my company insisted I delete my emails when it
approached 150 mgb capacity.
I kept him new and unread as long as I could.

We are going through this where I work currently, a co-worker, a good friend,
passed away on the 13th. We'd been joking the day before about what food item
he was going to bring in the next week though we all knew what it would be.
While he had been sick for a few years, at times appearing in colors no human
should ever appear in, he had been improving steadily and was in very high
spirits. To say it caught us off guard is one thing, it caught his doctors and
family off guard as well.
It is very odd to have lost two friends who just happened to be coworkers
since I startedher desk and
died several weeks later. I had been interacting her a lot for work-related
projects and had had learned how stressful, difficult and important that job
was and did not begrudge her her salary at all.

and that was the last
I heard from him. I was not surprised to hear, a few months later, that the
guy had been fired, because of his attitude.
Fast forward another few years, and I was Googling (or was it Facebook
searching?) ex-colleagues who I'd lost touch with. My search led to news
articles that referred to his death. He was killed in a bizarre road-rage
incident, where he was clearly the aggressor.
His family had created a memorial page on Facebook, but hadn't reported him
deceased. I reported his FB profile as deceased, it was memorialized and I
moved on.
I spoke to the ex-coworker about what happened (the same one who told me about
him being fired a few years earlier), and he pointed out how kind the eulogies
were- not really describing the arrogant prick weworked with.

Benita has appealed from the denial of that motion for post-judgment relief and from the aforementioned judgments, with the exception of the judgment dismissing her petition for modification. We conclude that it was error to reduce Norman's support below the levels provided in the agreement and that the amount assessed as arrearages should have included the unpaid real estate taxes, the water liens, and the value of the stock. We leave undisturbed the award of attorney's fees and the judge's denial of relief against the trust.

Certain discretionary payments to her of $600 monthly from the trustee of the marital deduction trust created for the benefit of Norman's mother under his father's will ceased in January, 1976, with the mother's death. The master's finding that these payments and other discretionary payments made by the trustee were supplementary to Norman's obligations imposed by the agreement and court orders, effectively forecloses Norman's argument that the payments were designed to reduce his support.

the time of the divorce revealed that he had annual gross earnings of $31,000 from the family roofing business and approximately $700 yearly in dividends from the stock retained by him under the agreement. His gross income rose to $65,000 in 1971 but returned to $31,000 from 1973 through 1975. The adverse business losses relied upon by Norman were primarily rooted in the decline of the family roofing business, its deterioration after 1973, as the construction industry waned and costs and competition increased, and its liquidation in May, 1976. But after its liquidation, Norman remained in the roofing business under a new and different corporate *15 name and branched out into several other ventures. The master found that Norman had been receiving "significant income" from his new roofingbusiness and "substantial benefits" (well in excess of what was shown on a tax return indicating $280,000 in gross sales in 1975 with taxable income of $13,000) from a garden shop owned by Norman and managed by his present wife. In 1977 Norman was also the recipient of cash flow rental income from a store in Hyannis, $700 yearly in stock dividends, and $23,000 in annual trust income. It was also found that he would soon receive (as of 1977) substantial income from a shopping center venture to which he had contributed land. On the assets side, the master found that prior to 1977 Norman had received approximately $93,000 from the liquidation of the family roofing business; that his jointly owned residence in Norwell held an equity of

required satisfaction of the judgments for the arrearages and the attorney's fees and expenses out of the assets of his father's trust (the Norman B. Pemberton Trust, hereafter the trust). In substance the orders compelled the trustee, the South Shore Bank (bank), despite a spendthrift clause in the trust and the grant of discretion to the bank as to disbursement of principal, to advance or lend Norman from the trust's principal the amounts necessary to satisfy the judgments and required Norman to take certain action to repay the advances or loans.[7] The orders also amended the judgment entered on Norman's modification petition to require the bank to pay Benita future support and alimony out of the trust's income which would otherwise be payable to Norman. These orders haveongoing force, and are not mooted as to Norman by the bank's present position hereafter described. *19 They are discussed in a separate opinion released today (post at 809) and will be reversed.
Benita has appealed from the refusal by the Probate Court to grant relief against the trust similar to that ultimately ordered by the single justice.[8] The trust in question was created by Norman's father by an agreement and declaration of trust dated June 27, 1944, and was subsequently modified by the father's exercise of a reserved power of amendment on July 16, 1969. The trust provided that after the death of the survivor of Norman's father and mother (his mother survived, later dying in 1976) it would continue for the benefit of Norman, Benita and their

was placed in trust for the use and benefit of Benita and the children. The trustees were obligated to pay local real estate taxes and expenses related to the property. To accomplish this, the agreement further provided that Norman would authorize the trustee of his father's trust to pay the trustees caring for the home whatever amounts became necessary to pay the taxes and expenses. From 1975 through 1978 the funds necessary to pay real estate taxes and water bills were advanced as gifts from Norman's mother's conservator directly to Norman, apparently in lieu of using monies from his father's trust. Norman did not use the funds to pay the taxes and water bills, and as of November 10, 1977, unpaid taxes and water liens with interest amountedit is required by law.

Funny contestantscurve to be seen,” writes The Guardian’s Jonathan Jones, “elbows sharp as knives, hips and waists geometrical silhouettes, triangle breasts.” The 1907 self-portrait of Picasso at age 25 (below) comes from this period, when the artist began his radical Cubist break with everything that had gone before.
20 years old (1901)
An older version Les Demoiselles d’Avignon contained a male figure, “a stand-in for the painter himself.” Even when he did not appear, at least not in a final version, in his own work, Picasso saw himself there: his moods, his heightened perceptions of reality as he imagined it.
The somber Blue Period paintings, with their moodiness and “themes of poverty, loneliness, and despair,” correspond with his mourning over the suicide of a friend, Catalan artist Carlos Casagemas. The Picasso in

the 1901 portrait further up looks gaunt, broken, decades older than his 20 years. In the 1917 drawing further down, however, the artist at 35 looks out at us with a haughty, smooth-cheeked youthful gaze.
24 years old (1906)
During this time, as World War I ended, he had begun to design sets for Diaghilev’s famed Ballet Russes, where he met his wife, ballerina Olga Khokhlova, and moved in comfortable circles, though he was himself desperate for money. Each portrait delivers us a different Picasso, as he sheds one mask and puts on another. Tracing his creative evolution through his portraiture means never moving in a straight line. But we do see his demeanor soften and round progressively over time in his portraits. He seems to grow younger as heages.
25 years old (1907)
The severe youth of 15, further up, brooding, world-weary, and already an accomplished draughtsman and painter; the grimly serious romantic at 18, above—these Picassos give way to the wide-eyed maturity of the artist at 56 in 1938, at 83, 89, and 90, in 1972, the year before his death. That year he produced an intriguing series of eclectic self-portraits unlike anything he had done before. See these and many others throughout his life below.

The method used to select the samples was a combination of the stratified random sampling and the multistage cluster sampling. The educational levels (elementary school and preschool) were considered as two separate strata, and in each stratum, the northern, central, and southern areas of the city were in turn considered as three substrata. In each substratum, different schools were considered as cluster heads and a total of 24 schools were selected via the systematic random sampling from among the schools (cluster heads).

UNION PACIFIC RESOURCES COMPANY, Appellant (Plaintiff),
v.
STATE of Wyoming; Wyoming Department of Revenue; Earl Kabeiseman, in his official capacity as Director of the Wyoming Department of Revenue; Wyoming State Board of Equalization; Wyoming Tax Commission; Nancy D. Freudenthal, Marvin Applequist, II, and C.H. Brown, III, in their official capacities as members of the Wyoming State Board of Equalization and the Wyoming Tax Commission; Wyoming Department of Audit; Roger W. Dewey, in his capacity as Director of the Wyoming Department of Audit; Board of County Commissioners of the County of Uinta; Board of County Commissioners of the County of Sweetwater; Board of County Commissioners of the County of Laramie; Board of County Commissioners of the County of Carbon; Board of County Commissioners of the County of Crook;that the county usage of the contingent fee contract with independent contracts to audit for tax underpayment was not illegal. Within the nature of the dismissal order, there is some question of whether the declaratory decision was made on the third issue in final form, although the decisional basis for resolution was clearly stated in the text of the decision letter.
We will conjunctively consider the umbrella issue of exhaustion of administrative remedies with each of the substantive issues presented on appeal.

been decided by the District Court. The Counties assert, however, that this question must be answered in the negative for production in the years at issue in this case.
Stating the substantive disagreement, however, the counties first itemized the statutory limitation concepts outlined in the Taxpayer's appellate brief:
Appellant claimed that there were four provisions of statute or rules which operated as statutes of limitations precluding both the State and the "County Contract Auditors" from seeking to collect unpaid mineral taxes for production years prior to 1990. First, the three-year record retention requirement imposed by Rules and Regulations of the Wyoming State Tax Commission, Ch. XXI, ง 14(c)(ii), (1986) is asserted to be a statute of limitations prohibiting audit and collection of taxes beyond the record retention requirement. Second, Appellantreports. The contract examiners were then compensated on a stated time fee basis and a contingency percentage based on success. This assistance was not based on invasion of the office of the producers as taxpayers. To the contrary, these "bounty hunters" just compared records in state offices, principally from the reports made to the Wyoming State Oil and Gas Commission and, to some degree, federal agencies. From a tax collection perspective, this was a search for hot oil and missing natural gas.[10]
The method of the program is described in the record by an affidavit of the director of the mineral tax division of the Department of Revenue:

Division. The firms do not know which of the reviewed reports is accurate, if any of them are, since all are based upon producer provided information.[11]
*376 As a result of these activities, the State, on March 13, 1991, sent a delinquency assessment notice addressed to Champlin Petroleum Corporation (a business entity of Taxpayer), which stated:
The Wyoming Department of Revenue has reviewed oil and gas production and sales from wells operated by Champlin Petroleum Company in the Big Dry Creek, Bruff, Chapman Draw and Dutton Creek fields located in Carbon and Uinta Counties, Wyoming for production years 1979 through 1988. Our letters dated October 12 and October 16, 1990 requested that you review your records and submit an explanation for the apparent discrepancies as identified in the aforementioned letters.that reorganization, the Wyoming state taxation function of the Department of Revenue and Taxation was divided with the creation of the State Board of Equalization. That Board, consisting of three appointees by the governor, was separated out into a semi-judicial hearing and appeal agency. The administrative tax collection activities were placed in the Department of Revenue as a position headed by a gubernatorial cabinet appointee as director. Consequently, the administrative function previously exercised by the State Board of Equalization/Tax Commission was transferred to the new agency with a single top administrator.
At the same time, the mineral royalty audit function, which had been developed into high efficiency during the times of management by State Auditor Griffith, was transferred from that agency to the newly created audit division, again headed

as the more easily determinable quantities question.
It is clearly demonstrated, however, that the third part of this litigation is directed by the Taxpayer to elimination of the fourth playerโcounty governmentโfrom any delinquency tax research capability and particularly to the use of the "bounty hunters" who have incurred considerable success. There exists then, under current state taxation methodology, three state players and the counties: the state Department of Revenue with the collection and taxation supervision responsibilities; the State Board of Equalization with a semi-judicial appeal and supervisory responsibility; and the Mineral Audit Division of the Department of Audit with a delinquency audit responsibility; and finally, county governments which have a direct pecuniary interest in the collection of the ad valorem tax. Value is established by the Department of Revenuesubject to appeal to the State Board of Equalization with the function of the counties regarding ad valorem tax only limited to a quantities validation program for collection. No particular level of cooperation between the state Audit Division and the county search efforts is demonstrable and the cooperation between the Department of Revenue and the Audit Division is not directly addressed.
The principal witness in deposition, Randall L. Fetterolf, had been employed in mineral audit by the State Auditor's office. After five years in that activity, 1981 to 1986, he left state government to organize Wyoming Royalties for the purpose of contracting to conduct mineral production and reporting reviews for both private land owners and public instrumentalities. That function, pursued in agreement with various county governments, was clearly defined.

the county contractor compiled information in regard to the coordinate severance tax collection activities is not completely clarified in briefing or argument. The quoted assessment notice does reveal that the information was equally applied to both severance as well as ad valorem taxes.
The substance of this third segment of this Taxpayer's litigation addresses whether county government, in an effort to protect and augment its revenues, can employ contractors with expertise and knowledge in oil production accounting to make the quantity comparisons. Overtly, in briefing and trial preparation, as well as depositions, the heaviest attack was directed at the income generated for the contractor including the contingent fee which funds otherwise would have been retained by the county if the tax had been properly paid or if the statethe powers granted by the legislature to the Wyoming Department of Audit; but the Court has been unable to find, and the Plaintiff has not shown the Court, any law prohibiting county commissioners from hiring such mercenaries.
Clearly, the Taxpayer presents an issue here that was not considered in MacDougall by additionally questioning county government usage of these contract services. We will first look at the level of authority which would permit or deny county government access to the validation services and then look at the question of the method of compensation as a differentiated topic.[13] County government has a clearly assigned responsibility in the intrinsic structure of Wyoming taxation to assess and collect ad valorem taxes. We would judicially notice that during the past decade, the state of

Not so fully documented in research or comment is the historical status of the ad valorem mineral tax underpayment. The only hard evidence in historical perspective came during the tenure of James B.

Pearl Bank Apartments on Pearl’s Hill is an architectural marvel.
When it was completed in 1976, it was the tallest residential building in Singapore at that time.
It was built on the government’s first land sales site launched exclusively for residential development in 1969. And it was to deliver on the developer’s promise of luxury private property living on a middle-income budget.
It was built to fit the maximum number of apartments on the small triangular hilltop site of 7,900m2.
As a result, it houses the largest number of apartments contained in a single block in Singapore: 272, including eight penthouses.

and implemented the concept of a food court.
The food court usually includes a cluster of restaurants, particularly fast-food restaurants, that dispense food and beverages on a counter service basis. It tends to be located within an area of the mall which is easily accessible to patrons and strategically situated so as to capitalize on patron traffic generated by the anchor stores of the mall.
While the food court has enjoyed considerable success, it has also precipitated a new and unfulfilled demand among mall patrons, proprietors and real estate developers for a food court that has not only counter service, but also drive-thru, capability and which can be effectively situated at "free-standing" locations as well as shopping malls. That is, a substantial number of patrons have an innate penchant forat a restaurant in such countries typically travels in a counterclockwise direction around a single free-standing restaurant structure, selecting, ordering and collecting his or her food. As such, the periphery of the driveway is situated along the passenger's side of the vehicle as it proceeds through the driveway. This pattern of travel permits the menu board, ordering station and drive-thru collection station all to be situated on the driver's side of the vehicle, thereby making it unnecessary for the patron to leave the driver's seat of the vehicle during any part of the drive-thru process. It also tends to provide for a more efficient tandem traffic pattern among vehicles as they proceed through the drive-thru facility. The geometric properties associated with a "left-turn-left-side-driver-specific" driveway, however, tend to greatly

The Mexican Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday that police had violated Cassez's constitutional and human rights, when they staged her arrest on national television seven years ago.
"Those responsible for violating Florence Cassez's rights are the authorities," said Justice Arturo Zaldivar Lelo de Larrea, who voted to release her.
In a 3-2 decision, the judges voted to immediately free 38-year-old Cassez from prison and allow her to return to her native France. While the two dissenting judges had agreed that her rights had been violated, they called for her case to be sent back to the lower courts.
"It's a historic day for Mexican justice," said Frank Berton, Cassez's French attorney.
After being released from prison in Mexico City, Cassez went with her father Bernard directly to the airport to return toFrance.
Arrest staged on live TV
In 2005, Mexican federal police arrested Cassez on a road outside her boyfriend's ranch near Mexico City. Her boyfriend at the time, Israel Vallarta, was allegedly the boss of a kidnapping gang called the Zodiacs.
After the initial roadside arrest, the police officers then staged a raid of Vallarta's ranch, which was broadcast live on national TV. During the operation, they portrayed Cassez as a kidnapper and faked her arrest in front of the cameras.
Police subsequently admitted wrongdoing.
In 2008, a Mexican judge sentenced Cassez to 96 years in prison during a closed-door trial without a jury. The sentence was later commuted to 60 years.
In March of 2012, Mexico's Supreme Court had voted 3-2 against releasing Cassez from prison.

It's like "running in place," said Lynn Reaser, chief economist at Point Loma Nazarene University. The unemployment rate, which only counts people who have looked for jobs in the last four weeks, recently fell as people dropped out of the labor force.
As the job market slowly improves, more people are likely to start looking for jobs again, Reaser said. That effect could drive the unemployment rate higher, or at least keep it from falling much more.
Looking further ahead, economists expect the U.S. economy to grow only 2.6% in 2012 overall.
That's because significant headwinds remain, including Europe in recession, volatility in the stock market and the threat of a "fiscal cliff" looming in 2013. The end of the year is set to trigger massive spending cuts, while at theChallenger bank OakNorth, which has backed developments by Fortis and Select Property in Salford, is aiming to double staff numbers at its Manchester office next year including the addition of a number of senior roles.
The lender launched its Manchester office in September 2015 and this team has grown to 15 people in the last three years.
OakNorth has now announced its intention to add a specialist local lending team to support its business across the North of England, and this will see the company hire another 15 staff next year. The current team is based on the first floor of the Alexandra Buildings on Queen Street.
Roles the company is hiring include director-level positions in debt finance and property finance.

home of Tullo Oil, a vehicle repair facility.
The other building at the property was once home to Corte & Co. Sausage Manufacturers, who operated out of the property for almost 70 years. That parcel, at 414 Hoboken Avenue, had a 22-story, 121-unit building approved back in 2006, but the project never got off the ground following the real estate crash that happened shortly thereafter.
The latest vision for the land would start completely from scratch, demolishing everything and constructing two 20-story residential towers connected by a breezeway as part of a mixed-use development. Dubbed Bergen Arch Plaza, the project’s residential component would include 524 units that are skewed toward studios — 293 units would be designated as such.
134 one-bedrooms, 86 two-bedroom units, and 11 three-bedroom apartments would round outgetting all that much out of it.
I don't want to read too much into a few sentences. It would, as always, be easier if Thomas and the rest of the justices were willing to make transcripts of their public remarks public. But no transcript of Thomas' remarks is available at the court's public information office. Based on the news accounts, one has to wonder about Justice Thomas' ideas of judicial openness when within months of releasing the most searingly personal and angry memoir ever penned by a living justice, he claims that Americans are too fragile or clueless to witness (grosssss …) Supreme Court justices thinking out loud about the law.
At the risk of straining the justice's inapt metaphor, the only thing more terrifying than hearing a bunch

18TH CENTURY COTTAGE
Overview
1 bedroom thatched cottage to sleep 2 adults
This pretty cob and thatch cottage stands at the end of a row and is situated in the very heart of the picturesque conservation village of Mithian. Reputedly one of the oldest villages in Cornwall, it has a cluster of thatched cottages together with a 16th-century inn with Elizabethan courtyard. This idyllic village is just 5 minutes from the A30 and 2 miles from the historic coastal village of St Agnes.
The cottage is Grade II listed as being of historic interest, built in about 1750. It has a private courtyard at the rear with plants and outside seating. The accommodation is on two floors, the bedroom being upstairs and living room, kitchen and shower room downstairs.
WE DO ACCEPT SHORTwe didn't like so much was parking where we could find a spot on the road, but it wasn't a big deal.
The pub (100metres away) is very friendly and we ate at the Rose & Vale Country house (walking distance, 5-10mins from the cottage) one night which was very memorable.
The organising and admin of the stay was dealt with very efficiently and it felt more homely than a lot of rental places. This place is highly recommended, it really feels like you are in the wilds of nature.
Mithian, one of the oldest villages in Cornwall, is in a peaceful valley setting, yet only 5 minutes to the A30 road. It is surrounded by delightful countryside with numerous lovely walks. The nearest cove is a 35 minute walk through

"The View" co-host Meghan McCain blasted President Trump for his decision to pull troops out of Syria as well as Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., for supporting the move, claiming the two of them have "blood on their hands" amid the fallout.
McCain began by pointing to the reporting of Fox News National Security Correspondent Jennifer Griffin, who spoke with a U.S. Special Forces soldier on the ground and told her that abandoning the Kurds was the first time in his career he ever felt "ashamed."
"These special forces officers are standing and protecting terrorists, ISIS terrorists, in jail. And now they're going to be left without American soldiers fighting alongside them," McCain said. "I'm very happy that there's outrage on both sides. I'm happy that there's finally seems to bewar. And I'm sorry... have we not learned the lessons of 9/11? And I don't understand it!"
McCain later warned that Trump's decision to abandon the Kurds could put 12,000 ISIS prisoners "out into the ether" and "go into Europe."
"We're talking about opening up Pandora's box of ISIS into Europe, into the rest of the world," McCain added.

Meanwhile, McCain's liberal colleague Sunny Hostin suggested that Trump possibly decided to withdraw troops from Syria in order to "change the subject" from the ongoing impeachment inquiry, something she believed would encourage more people to support impeachment.
Turkey’s ongoing military assault in Syria has left more than 100 Kurdish forces dead, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan claimed Thursday morning, a day after his troops launched airstrikes and

and the paratype incomplete skull NMC 8866, which included the anterior part of the skull but was lacking the right lower mandible, and the "beak". These skulls were collected in 1945 and 1946 from the sandy clay of the Horseshoe Canyon Formation in Alberta, Canada. In the years to come, additional material would be recovered at the Scabby Butte locality of the St. Mary River Formation near Lethbridge, Alberta, from terrestrial sediments considered to be between 74 and 66 million years old. These were among the first dinosaur sites found in the province, in the 1880s. The significance of these discoveries was not understood until shortly after World War II when preliminary excavations were conducted.
Another Pachyrhinosaurus skull was taken out of the Scabby Butte locality in 1955, andfiber multiplied by a length L2 thereof is almost zero.

caught looking at the ball a few times but that's just expected out of a rookie who is still adjusting to the speed of the game.
On offense, Dion has been erratic. His shooting form is inconsistent and I think he will be a hot or cold type player until he improves his consistency. When handling the ball, he uses picks well and cuts at a good angle (in the sense he creates some separation between himself and the man guarding him). Has not finished well at the rim. Has not shown he can break down his man off the dribble if not using a pick. Does not move well without the ball (common for rookies still learning an offense so not a concern yet). Is undersized.
I think heBaltimore City made application to Judge Paul E. Dorf in the Criminal Court of Baltimore for an order "in conformity with the provisions of 18 United States Code, Sections 2510-2530 [sic], for the issuance of a Wiretap Order." A reading of the application, however, indicates that the application really sought the *48 court's permission to enter secretly a hospital room in the University Hospital and to plant a particularly described transmitter or "bug" within that room. William A. Cooper, a suspected dealer in heroin, was a patient in the room where the listening device was to be secreted. The application was based on the joint affidavit of Detectives Caggese and Smoot of the Baltimore City Police Department. That the affidavit established probable cause for the issuance of the

The eavesdropping was "closed down at 4 o'clock on the 31st [of January]." The tape *49 recordings were turned over to Assistant State's Attorney F. Pond on February 1, 1976. Pond presented them to Judge Dorf on February 4, 1976. Judge Dorf apparently ordered them sealed and placed in the custody of the Clerk of the Criminal Court for safekeeping. None of the parties whose conversation was recorded by the police was notified within the prescribed period. Notice was given to them on various dates from May 24, 1976, through June 7, 1976.
A second electronic intercept order was obtained on application by the State's Attorney, supported by the affidavit of Detectives Caggese and Smoot on February 17, 1976. The order permitted wiretaps to be placed upon the telephonesit was tainted by the illegality of the eavesdrop and to suppress the search and seizures for the same reason.
At the suppression hearing on the eavesdrop evidence, Assistant State's Attorney Denholm testified that he had petitioned Judge Dorf to extend the time in which the State was to notify those persons whose conversations had been electronically intercepted through the transmitter in the hospital room. Mr. Denholm told the hearing judge that Judge Dorf had signed such an order extending the time for notification to June 9, 1976, but that neither Judge Dorf nor Mr. Denholm was able to locate a copy of it. Denholm further stated that it was not placed under seal and turned over to the clerk of the court but that he, Denholm, kept it

all ex parte orders extending the time in which the inventory notice is to be served upon the persons named in the interception order "and such other parties ... as the judge may determine ... in the interest of justice," 18 U.S.C. § 2518(8)(d) (1970), must be under seal of the court and treated in the same manner as the order authorizing interception.
The question still remains as to whether the failure to seal the order extending the time in which the notification mandated by section 2518(8)(d) is fatal. In the instant case, the order that extended the time in which to notify the parties whose conversations had been intercepted was kept by the Assistant State's Attorney "in his files." There is nothing to indicate that the order wasfor everyone else.
For the first time in the history of the Donegal International Rally at the end of day one, the first three positions were in the hands of Donegal drivers. Former winner of the event in 2015, Declan Boyle from Glenties was leading the rally followed by the reigning Tarmac Champion, Donagh Kelly from Frosses. And in third place was last years winner of the national rally, Manus Kelly. And there was more…
Lining up as possible outright winners, 2013 winner Sam Moffett, the ’04, ’05 and ’08 winner Eugene Donnelly was back in his WRC Mini. Allister Fisher and in particular the Bantry man, Keith Cronin were all very impressive.

An Old 28” gents Raleigh bike was my means of escape which I abandoned at the back of the Ballyraine Hotel. The cars were just coming in to Parc Ferme on the Saturday evening after a full days rallying and were parking up in the field at the back of the hotel.

Total Defence Day marked by launch of "Home" music video & nationwide siren
SINGAPORE- "Home - Keeping It Together" - that's the theme of this year's Total Defence campaign. Along with it, the organisers have launched the "Home" music video. Yesterday (Feb 15) was Total Defence Day and a Public Warning System siren was also sounded at noon to mark the occasion. Feb 15 1942 was the day Singapore fell to the Japanese during World War II, and Total Defence Day is a reminder to Singaporeans that everyone has a part to play in defending the country. The video is a remake of a Singapore classic "Home" which was written by local composer Dick Lee and made popular by singer Kit Chan in the 1998 National Day Parade.

The Polynesian Kingdom of Atooi
We’ve received many inquiries requesting commentary on the Polynesian Kingdom of Atooi because of the recent news conference at the United Nations Indigenous Forum as well as local news coverage. The purpose for this blog entry is to correct historical inaccuracies especially in light of legal matters now before the United Nations General Assembly, the International Criminal Court, and State of Hawai‘i Courts.
The term “Atooi” is not a Hawaiian word, but rather a British word spelled out with British phonics. The word “Attooi” was first uttered by the crew of Captain James Cook’s Third Voyage when his ships arrived in the Islands in 1778.

Today we call these islands the Hawaiian Islands, but in 1778 there were four separate and distinct kingdoms: Islands of Kaua‘i and Ni‘ihau under Ka‘eo; Islands of O‘ahu and Molokai under Kahahana; Islands of Maui, Lanai and Kaho‘olawe under Kahekili; and the Island of Hawai‘i under Kalaniopu‘u.
Cook was tasked by the British Admiralty to map the Pacific Islands and find the northwest passage that could link the north Pacific Ocean with the north Atlantic Ocean. Cook was not only a British explorer, but also cartographer, which is a map maker. Cook sailed north from the Island of Borabora in the Society Islands on December 9, 1777 and came upon the Island of O‘ahu on a Sunday on January 19, 1778, and soon after came upon the island ofKaua‘i the next day. His first encounter with the natives in canoes took place off the coast of Kaua‘i, where they bartered fish and vegetables for nails and iron. According to Cook’s journal (p. 221), “Their language differed from that of every other people we had before visited; but we had learnt to converse by signs, and very soon made ourselves understood.” It was probably at this point that the natives were asked what was the name of the island in order to map it, and to the British ear they spelt what they heard using British phonics–Atooi (Kaua‘i). It wasn’t until after 1820 that Hawaiian phonics was formally established through collaboration of the missionaries and Hawaiian chiefs.
The first publication of the island names using British phonics was

and conquered the Maui Kingdom, and in 1810, Kaumuali‘i, successor to Ka‘eo of the Kaua‘i Kingdom, peacefully acknowledged Kamehameha as his superior, thereby consolidating all of the former kingdoms into the Kingdom of the Sandwich Islands. On August 8, 1824, the Kaua‘i chiefs unsuccessfully rebelled under the leadership of George Humehume, successor and son of Kaumuali‘i, the late King of Kaua‘i. Humehume was removed to the Island of O‘ahu under the watch of Kalanimoku, the Prime Minister, and all of the Kaua‘i chiefs were dispersed throughout the islands and the lands were seized by Hawai‘i Islands chiefs.
Additional blog entries will address misinformation on the Hawaiian national flag, the United Nations Forum on Indigenous Peoples, and the United Nations list of non-self-governing territories.

I read it was Liholiho that came to Kauai and kidnapped Kaumualii, after touring the island. I believe it had to do with a letter sent to Liholiho, from Kaumualii, referring to him as king of the windward islands.

A sneak peek inside Xcel Energy Center is charged with politics
The Republicans unveiled a 42-inch-high wood laminate podium and stage Thursday at the Xcel Energy Center, and immediately used it to criticize the Democratic National Convention in Denver.
"Obviously, there's a big contrast," said Maria Cino, the president of the Republican National Convention who invoked John McCain's name repeatedly while describing the stage to a host of reporters. "It's a very simplistic stage. It's much closer to the audience."
Shortly after Cino addressed the media, Republican officials handed out copies of the New York Post, which criticized the stage used Thursday by Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama at his outdoor acceptance speech in Denver. The story carried the headline, "'O' MY GOD, Dems erect Obama temple."
Cino said the Xcel Centerstage, which sits about 4 feet above the convention floor, was similar to what "McCain has used throughout his campaign, where he's talking to his audience, not standing above his audience."
Cino declined to disclose how much the stage cost, telling reporters only that it was less than $1 million and built under budget. The stage features a 50- by 30-foot high-definition video screen that looms behind the podium.
The first bundle of large balloons hung from the ceiling, part of what Cino said would be 200,000 balloons that would be dropped during the four-day convention that starts Monday.

While it's not surprising for Hollywood to lack diverse representation, the American public seems to agree that Asian men are not as appealing as other races. Statistically, data collected from dating apps like OkCupid repeatedly show that Asian men have the lowest approval ratings from white, black, and Latina women. Ever since Asian-Americans were first heralded as the "model minority" in the 1960s, multiple studies have observed a strange paradox that Asian men were rated as being less desirable than other races despite being the most financially stable as a social group.
But therein lies much of the appeal of RandallPark's character in Always Be in My Maybe: He's just another schlub. He's not rich or successful, and his lifestyle is shaky as a full-time HVAC man and part-time aspiring rapper. BuzzFeed News points out that the film's success is partly due to "The Rise of the Rom-Com Schlub": "It's easy to see how these films could be interpreted as male wish fulfillment fantasies about characters who are inexplicably liked by women even as the men don't seem to have much to offer."
Today, the Asian stereotypes of the stable and hard-working man, who's either intolerably nerdy or cold and emotionally unavailable, can't stand up in the face of the all-American schlub. Characters like Park's burned out Marcus Kim are "stealth smokeshows, and their characters are funny and disarming

State (1872) 83 U.S. (16 Wall.) 130, 141-142 [21 L.Ed. 442, 446]: The early concepts of the functions of women in society were described as follows: "the civil law, as well as nature herself, has always recognized a wide difference in the respective spheres and destinies of man and woman. Man is, or should be, women's protector and defender. The natural and proper timidity and delicacy which belongs to the female sex evidently unfits it for many of the occupations of civil life. The constitution of the family organization, which is founded in the divine ordinance, as well as in the nature of things, indicates the domestic sphere as that which belongs to the domain and functions of womanhood....

An Armed Robbery Suspect Tried To Make His Getaway In An Uber Taxi
This guy really didn’t plan ahead after he robbed a supermarket and, having failed to line up a getaway driver, he instead called on an Uber taxi to come and pick him up.
Dashawn Terrell Cochran, 23, allegedly robbed a shop at gunpoint near Baltimore, Maryland in the U.S.
He strolled into the store at around 2.30am and picked up some Tylenol cold medicine, before pulling a gun on the employee who came to serve him and demanded money. He must have really wanted to get rid of his flu!
After fleeing with the cash, Cochran was seen leaping into a silver Lexus with two other passengers.

The event, which has been featured by Fortune.com and coincides with National Small Business Week, was created to inspire and educate entrepreneurs and small business owners through keynote presentations, panel discussions and interactive workshops on topics crucial to helping small businesses grow big.
Small Business Festival (SBF) includes three days of paid Premier Events at the 800 Congress Space in downtown Austin, and five days of free Community Events at numerous Austin locations including Tech Ranch, Orange Coworking, WeWork, Capital Factory, T-Werx, the City’s Entrepreneur Center of Austin, Frost Tower, Microsoft and many more.
Almost 100 expert speakers will lead topics, including practical tips for starting or growing your small business, financing, sales, marketing, social media, public relations, staff recruiting and leadership strategies, networking training, freelancing and the “gig economy,”with the DHS on behalf of the Identity Project, the World Privacy Forum, and activist entrepreneur John Gilmore, objecting to this proposal as a violation of international human rights, First Amendment rights, and privacy and government accountability laws.
This is the third identification-related "rulemaking" in the last month and a half in which the DHS has proposed to restrict the right to travel. I've worked with the Identity Project to file formal objections to each of these proposals:
Expansion of US-VISIT fingerprinting, photographing, and lifetime dossiers on visitors to include permanent U.S. residents (green card holders)
The Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative to require passports for travel between the USA, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Latin America

most scary things I’ve ever seen, honestly,” said Mickey Wilson, as he recounted the rescue of the dangling man. “Just seeing a person get the life sucked out of them. I kind of stopped thinking and just started acting.”
Arapahoe Basin says the man who was caught in the chair was taken by ambulance to St. Anthony Summit Medical Center and was then transferred to St. Anthony Hospital in Lakewood. The ski area declined to provide information on the man’s condition.
However, Wilson said he spoke to the man through FaceTime on Wednesday night and said that despite a neck brace he appeared to be OK.
The resort says the man was trying to unload from the three-person lift when his backpack became entangled in the chair. The man, still danglingfrom the chair, was swept around the bullwheel at the top of the lift and back down the mountain, at which point the operator shut down the ride.
Wilson, a part-time A-Basin ski instructor, says he was on a chair behind the man. About 30 seconds after he unloaded, he realized what was happening to the man who he described as a friend of a friend.
“As he tried to get off his backpack caught, and because he was on the outside of the chairlift, he went around the emergency chairlift shutoff (trigger),” Wilson, 28, said. “He was not only caught, he was literally being hung by his neck by his backpack. He was hanging 3-feet, 4-feet below the chair. His feet were maybe only about 10 feet off the
