To ensure a common outdoor environment, all sessions were performed in the same park in the afternoon. During the trials, a researcher accompanied the participants and provided verbal feedback (if required) to assist participants with motivation and to ensure an even pacing during each trial. Fifteen participants completed seven testing sessions, three participants completed six testing sessions, two participants completed five testing sessions, one participant completed two testing sessions and one participant completed one testing session. The main reasons for not completing all seven testing sessions was time conflicts with the scheduled testing session, work related travel, and illness.

is a long story for another day, as the hardships of his life may well have overshadowed the run of Norris Trophy dominance he enjoyed in his career. Larry may not have enjoyed the same level of individual award success, but was a dominant force on the Canadiens blueline for 17 years, in a totally different league. My problem is that I don't feel people nowadays know how good Larry Robinson really was, and I don't think he gets the full credit he deserves as one of the best ever.
Big Bird came to the Canadiens in 1972 as a relative unknown, with little fanfare. A tall, lanky Ontario farm boy, he didn't exactly carry the appeal to the fan base of a Guy Lafleur, and was actually aself-admitted Habs hater as a kid; "because they won all the time, and I liked cheering for the underdog." Notwithstanding his initial obscurity and youthful impressions, he went on to be an integral part of six Stanley Cup winning Canadiens squads, won two Norris Trophies, a Conn Smythe, was inducted into the Hall of Fame, and his number 19 jersey has been retired by the most storied franchise in hockey history. He played in the NHL for 20 years, and not once did he miss out on the playoffs, a record he holds with Niklas Lidstrom to this day.
Serge Savard once said of Robinson: "I'd say 'you go ahead, don't worry about what's happening in the back' and I became a more defensive defenseman." Serge actually noted that

career record in the NHL with a whopping career plus-730. Bobby Orr comes in second on that list with a plus-597. This is a pretty massive gap, and serves to illustrate the type of presence he was on the ice. Simply put, when Larry Robinson was on the ice the Habs scored a lot more goals than were scored against them
So why is it that people seem to forget Larry Robinson's name when they talk about the best defensemen ever? Is it that he only won two Norris trophies during his career? Well, that argument seems a little silly because Bobby Orr only won two cups but took the Norris 8 times. Individual awards are voted on by people, and Stanley Cups aren't won individually, so they can'tThe CEO of Cathay Pacific Airways resigned on Friday following pressure by Beijing on the Hong Kong carrier over participation by some of its employees in anti-government protests.
Cathay Pacific said Rupert Hogg resigned "to take responsibility" following "recent events."
The company chairman, John Slosar, said in a statement the airline needed new management because events had "called into question" its commitment to safety and security.
"This is regrettable as we have always made safety and security our highest priority," Slosar said in a statement. "We therefore think it is time to put a new management team in place who can reset confidence and lead the airline to new heights."
Cathay Pacific, which has been under pressure from China's aviation regulator, said it was fully committed to Hong Kong under the principle

The airline became embroiled in crosswinds between Beijing and pro-democracy groups in the Asian financial hub after some of its employees took part in the Hong Kong protests.
This week, Cathay Pacific terminated the employment of two pilots over their involvement in the protests, after being ordered by China's aviation regulator to suspend personnel who had engaged in illegal protests.
The airline named Augustus Tang as the new CEO. Tang was the head of Hong Kong Aircraft Engineering Company, whichlike Cathay is managed by Swire Pacific Ltd.
Cathay Pacific also said Paul Loo had resigned as chief customer and commercial officer, to be replaced by the head of its low-cost arm Hong Kong Express, Ronald Lam.
Hogg said these had been "challenging weeks" for the airline and it was right for Loo and him to take responsibility as leaders of the company.

that the, "Self-induced vomiting seen in both anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa can lead to swelling of salivary glands, electrolyte and mineral disturbances, and dental enamel erosion." In addition, "rarer complications" include "tearing [of] the esophagus, rupturing of the stomach, and life-threatening irregularities of the heart rhythm."
Possible causes
According to Cassell and Gleaves, "biological, psychological, [and] social factors" all play a role in the development of an eating disorder. In their Introduction, they note that, "In addition to core eating and body image-related psychopathology of the eating disorder...a variety of additional problems, including depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive behavior, post-traumatic stress disorder, and substance abuse" could all play a role in the development of an eating disorder. "Interpersonal and family problems as well as personality disorders are also common." Themental illness and substance addiction treatment…do so on the same terms as medical and surgical care.” In addition, “It would apply to group health plans covering more than 50 people.”
March 2011
A recent study “billed as the largest and most comprehensive analysis of eating disorders” examined data on “more than 10,000 teens aged 13 to 18. Binge eating disorder was the most common, affecting more than 1.5 percent of kids studied”, and “just under 1 percent had experienced bulimia, and 0.3 percent had had anorexia.”
In addition, they found that “more than half the affected teens had depression, anxiety or some other mental disorder. Sizeable numbers also reported suicide thoughts or attempts.”

As described in Patent Literature 1 or 4, in recent years, in a manufacturing site of optical display units, Roll-to-Panel (RTP) manufacturing apparatus and manufacturing method are employed.
In the RTP method, generally, an optical display device is continuously manufactured as follows. First, a web of optical film laminate is fed from a roll. The optical film laminate is configured as including a web of carrier film, an adhesive layer laminated to one of opposite surfaces of the carrier film, and a web of optical film laminated on the carrier film via the adhesive layer.
The optical film may be a single-layered or multi-layered film. On the web of optical film laminate fed from the roll, slit lines in a width-wise direction are continuously formed to thereby form a sheetof optical film including the adhesive layer, a so-called optical film sheet, between adjacent slit lines.
The optical film sheet continuously supported on the web of carrier film is peeled with the adhesive layer from the carrier film by a peeling means arranged against or near a laminating position, and sent to the laminating position. Each of the optical film sheets which has reached to the laminating position is laminated with one of opposite surfaces of a panel member separately conveyed to the laminating position by a laminating means provided at the laminating position.
In a case of a liquid crystal display, a panel member having an optical film sheet laminated on one of opposite surfaces is laminated with another optical film sheet on the other of the opposite surfaces.

At O'Hare International Airport in Chicago, the high temperature on Wednesday is expected to be negative 14 degrees, which would break a record set on Jan. 18, 1994. Hundreds of flights have been canceled at O'Hare and Chicago's Midway Airport on Tuesday due to lingering effects of the winter storm that hit the region on Monday, according to the Chicago Department of Aviation.
The cold will curtail Amtrak operations, with some scheduled trains between Chicago and St. Louis, Carbondale, Milwaukee and Detroit canceled due to the cold snap.
The U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois will be closed Wednesday, in addition to several universities.

This fight is an even match up. They both have world class stand up and ground skills. My pick is Cowboy. Not JUST because he is from the Jackson camp but because he really benefits from the Tapout Ranch. He has a lot of highly skilled people that come live and train. It’s all about having bodies and he has a better overall camp. Plus he has the confidence, the winning streak, and record to back it up!

On the other hand, an automatic speed-changing device that uses the transmission of the type of parallel shaft gear mechanism tends to produce a larger shock of change at the time of shifting the transmission steps than that of the automatic transmission. In the transmission of the type of parallel shaft gear mechanism, a main shaft and a counter shaft arranged in parallel are provided with a plurality of gear trains and a dog clutch, and a speed-changing sleeve of the dog clutch is brought in mesh with one of the gear trains to transmit the engine power to an output shaft.

Daily Mail cover price to rise to 55p to offset high print costs
The price of the Daily Mail is to increase by 5p from Monday as the newspaper's owner looks to offset the continuing high cost of newsprint.
Daily Mail & General Trust (DMGT), which also publishes the Mail on Sunday, Metro and the MailOnline and Thisismoney websites, said it was the first increase in the price of the weekday Daily Mail since April 2008.
The cover price will rise to 55p - the first rise since April 2008 - but the cost of the Saturday edition and that of the Mail on Sunday will remain unchanged.
The company said that since the last rise the
cost of the paper for printing had increased by nearly 30 per cent while
fuel prices fordistribution had soared and the cost of living had risen by 15
per cent since the past
As well as newsprint costs, DMGT said the rise will help mitigate some of the recent decline in advertising revenues.
Price rises: The Daily Mail newspaper cost will be 55p
Its Associated Newspapers division, which houses
the company's national titles, saw advertising revenues fall 7 per cent
on last year in the 13 weeks to July 3, with the figure down 9 per cent
for the five weeks of June.

The company said the performance
reflected the fragile consumer economy, which has meant continued
uncertainty for advertisers in the retail sector.
DMGT said the downturn was offset by
the circulation performance of the Daily Mail, which has 'significantly
outperformed' the market over the last year. The title is Britain's
second-biggest daily newspaper with daily sales

Jessie Joo is an artist originally from Seoul, Korea. Jessie has studied the structure of the metaphysical and material side of reality extensively-- which has led the artist to depict them as an individual universe with its own mechanism. Most of Jessie Joo's works are water color paintings, however the artist also creates oil paintings and installations. Jessie is especially interested in capturing ephemeral moments of our lives.

they don't stop, you should seriously consider cutting them off.
You could tell her the facts behind "The Number of the Beast". It was inspired by a dream Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBain had. In the dream he stumbled upon a Satanic ritual in the woods behind his house. Nicko McBain is a Christian and has been for a long time. If you want to really piss her off play some Gary Numan's stuff off "Exile" and "Pure" like "Dominion Day", "The Angel Wars", "Prayer for the Unborn", etc.

Haverhill Rovers have returned to winning ways in the Thurlow Nunn Premier Division, after beating Ely City 2-0 at The New Croft.
Ely were left winless after four games with this defeat while Rovers picked up their first win in six games, thanks to a Jordan Palmer double.
And, following injury to goalkeeper Charlie Turner, Rovers turned to debutant Lennon Westley — an U18 player — to put on the gloves.
In his first ever game at senior level, the youngster secured a clean sheet.
Owen Boddey also played his first game for Rovers this season while Lawrence Healey played his first game in a while.
The home side took the lead early on, with just 93 seconds of the encounter gone, as a glancing header

from Palmer towards the bottom right corner bounced and found the net.
It came as a bit of a surprise to both teams as it looked like it was going wide from afar.
And then, with 39 minutes gone, Palmer got his second of the evening — as well as the team’s second — as he volleyed the ball into goal.
His volley came down off the underside of the bar, into the ground and away from goal, but a flag from the assistant referee indicated that it had crossed the line and doubled the home side’s advantage.
After the break, Ely tried to peg Haverhill back but were unsuccessful. One of their better chances came in the 57th minute when Ollie Brookes had a free header after a corner, but heheaded wide.
The game was effectively over when Ely were reduced to 10 men in the 86th minute, as second-half substitute James Seymour received his second yellow card for a poor challenge on Ben Bradley.
Rovers next face Borough in their first league derby, before hosting Newmarket Town on Tuesday (7.45pm)..

The cybercriminals who defaced the World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) website after it triggered a ban on Russian athletes at the Rio Olympics were likely the same hacking team behind the breach of the Democratic National Committee revealed in July, according to hacking experts.
Wada issued a scathing report on the Russian government’s vast cover-up of doping during the Sochi games in 2014 after Grigory Rodchenkov, a doctor who had worked for Russia’s own anti-doping authority, said he helped cover the tracks of athletes using anabolic steroids during the games. Two of Rodchenkov’s former colleagues including the one-time head of the agency, Nikita Kamayev, died in February.
Cybersecurity researchers at ThreatConnect believe the hacker was “Fancy Bear”, a hacking team long suspected of ties to Russian security agency GRU. Fancy BearSouth Koreans have truly mastered the commute. Simply put, a typical Seoul subway station is equipped with amenities and an attention to detail unknown to most American cities. That's despite the challenge of shuffling an estimated 6.9 million passengers through its metro system every day, making it the third-busiest metro system in the world — right behind Tokyo and Moscow.
"As a Seoulite and as someone working for the city government, I think it's world-class," Chang Yi, a transportation expert and research fellow at the Seoul Institute, said in a phone interview. "I would rate it as the highest in the world, maybe, but I'm biased."
He's not far off. Seoul's transit has been called one of "the best public transportation systems in the world" on a number of occasions.

[Bile and stress ulcer in the rat (author's transl)].
The influence of bile on the ulcer formation under "restraint stress" condition was studied in rats with direct choledocho-gastrostomia resp. bile duct ligation. After 9 hrs. of immobilisation in plaster cuffs the animals with unrestricted bile flow via the choledochosstress gastrostomia showed as many ulcers as the sham-operated controls. There was no difference in the ulcer localisation, the region of the bile duct anastomosis was without any ulcer. After bile duct ligation the ulcer frequency was reduced to the half.

The garden roses, the hellebores, and all of the greenery went together so flawlessly. The soft florals looked like a dream when captured on film.

ERBIL, Kurdistan Region - Islamic State (ISIS) militants seized more territory from its armed opponents on Syria's northwestern border with Turkey on Friday, capturing several villages north of Aleppo, said a Syrian activist group.
According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, ISIS are close to cutting off an important town north of Aleppo, Marea, after seizing villages around it.
This advance is reportedly bringing the militants closer to Azaz.
Turkey has been backing a number of Syrian armed groups in that area against the regime of President Bashar al-Assad, largely due to the fact it doesn't want Syrian Kurdish forces enter the 60-mile stretch of northwestern border territory known as the Jarablus-Azaz line.
Jarablus, just west of the Euphrates remains under ISIS occupation while Azaz is occupied by an assortment ofIslamist groups.
Turkish-backed fighters successfully forced ISIS from the town of Al-Rai in that region in April but were forced out again by an ISIS counter-attack four days later.
Ankara's opposition to any YPG advance in that area was enforced in February after the YPG briefly advanced eastward from Afrin against Islamist militants in the Menagh airbase south of Azaz. Turkey responded to their offensive by launching cross-border artillery attacks against YPG positions forcing them to withdraw.
An ISIS advance on Azaz would put that group in a more dominant position along the Syrian-Turkish border and would also enable it to threaten Afrin as well as Kobani.
ISIS’s advance on Friday comes in the midst of an going fierce battle between Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and members of the radical group in

In the form of an amphitheater in the approximate form of a quarter circle, this was designed by Ludwig Moshamer and had approximately 6,000 seats and room for approximately 18,000 standees. Ground was broken on August 26, 1934, and the facility was dedicated on September 22, 1935. The inaugural performance was of a work by Hans Baumann honoring "farmers of the border marches" and entitled Für unsere Treue gibt es keinen Tod (for our loyalty there is no death), with a cast of 1,600.

Target: The National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC)
Goal: Commend the NSPCC for launching a national helpline to protect girls at risk of female genital mutilation
In the UK, as many as 23,000 girls under the age of 15 are believed to be at risk of female genital mutilation (FGM) each year. Despite FGM being illegal in the UK, more than 70 women and girls here seek treatment every month for health problems as a result of FGM. It is unfortunate and startling that not a single person responsible for maiming or killing these young women has been prosecuted since 1985.
To combat the problem of FGM, the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) recently launched a national 24-hour helpline to protect youngJanuary, we knew we had to do something interesting with it. As Tesla has ‘Supercharger’ stations - said to be able to give the batteries on a Model S 170 miles of charge in just 30 minutes - dotted all over Europe, we figured an all-electric road trip was in order. And where better to go than Paris, arguably Europe’s most glamorous capital city.

Last week I was pleased to reveal my list of 2013's best 10 films. But, while I would argue last year was one of the best in recent memory when it came to Hollywood producing consistently good products, there certainly were a few stinkers.
So, in order to be fair and balanced, here are the 10 worst movies - from least-worst to worst - of the 160 I saw in 2013:
10. "RIPD"
Thankfully, this horrible hybrid between "Ghostbusters" and "Men in Black" only lasted 90 minutes. Right from the start things feel rushed and lazy, especially its character development, with the film basically asking you to like Ryan Reynolds' character because he is Ryan Reynolds. Jeff Bridges plays essentially the same character he did in "True Grit," minus all thefor Heigl, playing Grace's sister, to openly discuss and joke about his sex life? From experience, that's not what happens at weddings, even weddings as big as the one portrayed in this one.
2. "The Getaway"
Again, a movie whose two leads surprisingly didn't have chemistry - Ethan Hawke and Selena Gomez. Having been on my fair share of road trips, it was easy to see early on what a horrible experience the film was going to be when Gomez and Hawke had extended sequences of shouting at each other with lines that had very little variation on the "are we there yet?" routine. The car chases - or really just the film being one big extended car chase - were not engaging or shot in an appealing way. Making

matters worse, Jon Voight doing a horrifyingly bad Russian accent as the film's offscreen villain was cringeworthy.
1. "Grown Ups 2"
This is the first movie I have ever experienced where the plot of the film was revealed in the opening minutes of the film unbeknownst to the viewers. While you might think the quick mention of a party is just a minor detail, the film ends up revealing that, nope, it's actually the film's end game and what the events we've been watching - which had nothing to do with the plot - were leading up to. It's not funny, has no redeeming value, and even Rob Schneider stayed away from it with his role from the first film being re-cast.

What's it About
Deranged criminal mastermind Castor Troy (Cage), currently in a coma, has planted a biological weapon somewhere in LA, and only his equally psychotic brother Pollux (Nivola) knows where. Crack FBI agent Sean Archer (Travolta) has a long, painful history battling the Troys, and is determined to nail them once and for all. He undergoes a radical medical procedure that transfers Castor's face to his own, in hopes that once he's reunited with Pollux in prison, the ever-loyal little brother will talk. But the insensate Castor's got life in him yet, and unfortunately, Archer has left his own face behind.

of his best-known Asian films. Deliberately mythic in concept, "Face/Off" probes questions of honor, identity, and morality, while giving Travolta and Cage plenty of leeway to stretch their archetypal good-and-evil personas. Ingenious, kinetic and reveling in its choreographed, over the top violence, "Face/Off" is a complex thriller that's bloody good fun.

President Trump's weekly job approval rose to 39 percent in the final week of December, his highest rating in nearly six months, according to a Gallup poll released late Tuesday.
The last time Gallup respondents approved this highly of Trump was in a July 10-16 survey. Between then and now, Trump's approval rating has hovered between 35 percent and 38 percent.
The recent uptick may be due to his Dec. 22 signing of a tax reform bill, which prompted major companies to announce bonuses for employees.
Trump's highest approval ratings were in his first six months in office when he typically scored between 38 percent and the low- to mid-40s.
Trump's average approval rating through his 11 months in office is 39 percent.
Gallup did not post details about the number of surveyBook of the Week A Greek Portfolio
by Constantine Manos While living in Greece for three years, Constantine Manos traveled the countryside seeking to capture in photographs the character and beauty of a way of life virtually unchanged for centuries. These pictures record his wanderings in places where the only sound might be the distant tinkling of sheep bells, where hospitality for the stranger is a sacred tradition, and where time has stood still against a backdrop of rural simplicity and serenity. His book, first published in 1972, has become a sought-after classic. For this new edition, Manos has gone back into his files to find previously unpublished images that further enhance the beauty and depth of this body of work.

So why did my mother not have a huge belly on December 1980? Why not in February 1981? And why wasn't I on any of the pictures taken in 1982?

When people don't strike me in any particular way I blank them out within minutes. This must show on my face too, because the blond tells me, "You remember me from school, don't you?"
Yes, now I do. We took courses together, me and this blond whose name I've forgotten, and she has always been like that with me, always so eager to interact. How comes she's here?
"Sure I do", I say, doing my best to be civil
"Can I join you?", she asks, and starts pulling up a chair for herself before I get the chance to reply
She talks for a while, about places to see and about her plans here in Amsterdam and about school. A bunch of words I don't really listen to, but to which Ithe counter she is wiping over and again, then turns to take some glasses from the dishwasher.

Behavioural Challenges for Urban Cycling
When I was invited to speak in New York recently, one of the lectures was about behaviour and the challenges of changing it. I figured I'd slap the lecture onto the blog.
Behaviour is a tricky subject and getting groups of people to change their behaviour is never easy. Lately, behaviour is a hot topic in Emerging Bicycle Cultures. Many people who ride bicycles are generating bad press because of the way they're cycling and many other cyclists are getting branded negatively by association.
Generally, bad behaviour is a sign that cyclists don't have adequate infrastructure. Increasing cycling's infrastructure and profile is a good way to calm the traffic in more ways than one.
We're at an interesting point in the reestablishment of urban cyclingat this bicycle culture every day for three years and interestingly, I have only seen four accidents involving bicyles. Two were people falling off at low speeds and landing on their asses. One was a Norwegian who roared through a pedestrian crossing and got smacked and broke his leg. Then, only a couple of months ago, I saw a bike messenger get right hooked.
It was at a busy intersection. He braked but hit the car and flew over the hood, with his bike, and landed on his side. He flew up and stormed towards the car. The woman driver was on her way out to make sure he was okay, but then shrunk back at the sight of him coming at her like that.
In the meantime, several cyclists

had rolled up to the light. One of them, a woman, called out, "Hey! YOU ran the red light!" Then two others chimed in. "I saw it, too!" They were actually speaking to the bike messenger. He was instantly deflated and the motorist came out of her car to ask him if he was okay. He was. They pulled off to the side to exchange insurance details.
We're in a different place in Copenhagen. It's mainstream and the 'bad apples' stand out, but it all started somewhere.
This is where we are today in Copenhagen. The bicycle is an equal partner in the transport equation. A goal, indeed, for every city.
When Copenhagen started on the journey to reestablish the bicycle on the urban landscape thirty odd years ago, and battlethe onslaught of car culture, there were no sub-cultures at the point of departure. Women were cycling in fewer numbers than men, but there were no bike messenger tribes, lycra-clad "avid cyclist" or what have you, to influence our mainstream bicycle culture. We made the jump directly to mainstream and the democratization of urban cycling for every citizen.
The results were simple enough and are seen on the cycle tracks and streets today. Urban cycling is public domain. What happened when we mainstreamed it was that there was a growth in the number of sub-cultures and this continues to this day. Mainstream cycling brought on the rich diversity of bicycle culture. BMX, mountain biking, racing clubs and later on fixies and all that. A positive side effect to focusing

Since the beginning, John Baugh was the guiding force behind the founding of SYSCO. Baugh had grown up on a ranch near Waco, Texas, and got his start in the food business through a part-time job at a local A&P grocery store when he was in high school. He eventually founded Zero Foods Company of Houston, a Houston-based food distributor. In 1969 Baugh convinced the owners of eight other small food distributors to combine the nine companies, forming what he hoped to mold into a national food-service distribution organization, one that would be able to distribute any food despite its regional availability. The other eight original companies were: Frost-Pack Distributing Company (Grand Rapids, Michigan); Global Frozen Foods, Inc. (New York); Houston's Food Service Company (Houston); Louisville Grocery Companycenter on Lucius, who is the son of Lucilla (Connie Nielsen) in the original movie. Lucius is the nephew of the villainous Commodus, played by Joaquin Phoenix. Commodus killed Russell Crowe's Maximus at the end of the film. However, before Maximus died, he saved the lives of Lucius and Lucilla.

Alvarez. Several
weeks prior to this altercation, Alvarez filed a different police report and
alleged that Alvear was “making threats against her.” She said Alvear told her
that he was going to post nude pictures of her, taken without her consent, on
the internet. And on a different occasion, Alvarez told an officer at the hospital
where she works that she sought a divorce from Alvear. Despite the protective
order, Alvear had “followed her home from her” job at the hospital for a “few
weeks” and repeatedly called and texted her.
With these allegations, the district court held a revocation hearing.
Alvarez did not testify. Instead, the court heard testimony from Alvear’s
The probation officer also alleged that Alvear had not made payments towardsmedium

Islamic banking as well as in non-banking
Islamic financial activities such as Islamic mutual funds, Takaful and Modaraba.
For the development of non-banking
Islamic financial services, the Securities & Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP)
has been playing a key role by creating an enabling environment and level
playing field.
Due to this proactive approach and
support of the regulator, the performance of Modaraba sector for the year ended
June 30, 2008 was excellent in every area including assets size, equity,
paid-up-capital, and profitability.
Out of 24 Modaraba, 18 declared cash
dividend ranging from 2.5% to 40%. The cumulative profit of the member companies
of MAP was Rs962 million as compared to Rs749 million a year ago, showing an
increase of 28%. Total Asset of these entities increased to Rs29 billion from
Rs26 billion during this period, registering a growth of 12.0%.
The MAPhas been consistently making
efforts for the promotion of the sector. Last year the Association focused on
areas like research and product development, creating awareness about Islamic
financials system among the members, improving Sharia'h compliance, and
promotion of Modaraba model in country level as well as on international
platform.
Besides these priorities, at the

DUBAI (Reuters) - Islamic State militants fighting in Iraq and Syria released a video on Tuesday that appears to show British journalist John Cantlie criticizing preparations for U.S-led attacks on the militant group, the SITE monitoring service reported.
Islamic State, which controls territory in Syria and Iraq, has already executed two U.S. journalists and one British aid worker in recent weeks in what it said was reprisal for U.S. air strikes against it in Iraq.
In the five-minute video, the man identified as Cantlie suggests President Barack Obama, long careful to avoid the sort of conflicts his predecessor George Bush pursued, was being sucked into a war he could not win, SITE reported.
"The president once called George Bush's Iraq conflict a "dumb war," and couldn't wait to distance America fromit when he came into power. Now he's being inextricably drawn back in," the man identified as Cantlie says.
The man, wearing an orange shirt and his hair closely cropped, describes Islamic State as the "most powerful jihadist movement seen in recent history", adding it could not be greatly harmed by U.S. politicians calling it "awful" or "vile".
The video appeared to have been recorded before strikes overnight launched by U.S. warplanes and partners on Islamic State targets in Syria.
The United States has been building a coalition to combat Islamic State, a hardline Sunni Muslim force that has seized large expanses of territory in Iraq and Syria and proclaimed a caliphate erasing borders in the heart of the Middle East.
The United States resumed air strikes in neighboring Iraq in August

awakened from its dull slumber whenever nationalists seem close to their goals.
Nationalists also know that electoral fortunes rise and fall. Most of these nationalist parties have been around for a long time.
Nonetheless, these results are indeed significant and promising. Among French voters, the FN won 43% of blue-collar workers, 37% of the unemployed and 30% of people under 35 — by far the leading party in each category.
The first-place win of the FN and UKIP may contribute to breaking the taboo against them as possible governing parties. Success breeds success. Voters who may have felt inhibited to vote for nationalist parties because of media-created guilt will perhaps become less inhibited as the nationalists become more mainstream. Because of the increasing popularity of nationalist parties, people who openly identifyunpublished harpsichord music by Antoine Forqueray (Heugel, 1970).

Smoke billows during a fire in an area of the Amazon rainforest near Humaita, Amazonas state, Brazil, on Aug. 17.
They call it the "lungs of the planet."
The vast Amazon rainforest, home to some of the most unusual plant and animal species on the planet, produces 20% of the world's oxygen and is crucial to making Earth a habitable place. But the lush tropical forest that absorbs much of humanity's greenhouse pollution has come under unprecedented assault this year.
Jair Bolsonaro, the far-right lawmaker elected president of Brazil in January, has vowed to speed up development of the rainforest, raising serious concerns among environmentalists. Earlier this month, Bolsonaro fired the head of an agency which had revealed some 1,330 square miles of forest had been lost since he took officeCategory: Seals & Sealions
Ocean Park is investigating what the accidental death of a year-old male spotted seal.
The seal died during an incident at about 2.30pm on Monday (1/6/2015) during a backwash cycle on filters at the Polar Adventure attraction which opened in 2012 and features different species of penguins, walruses, seals and sealions. In subtropical Hong Kong the energy-intensive attraction is kept at 8-10 degrees C for species native to the South Pole, with 15 to 17 degrees C for North Pole species.
The accident appeared to be the result of the animal becoming trapped against an outlet during the backwash operation, but the exact cause of death had not been confirmed after an examination of the body was carried out on Monday.

seals, currently sports a fluffy coat that he will shed in about a month’s time. Photo: Nora TamThe first spotted seals were born in Hong Kong between Apr. 13 and May 4. All the seals are male and named Ocean, Sonny and Sammy. They are the offspring of three different seals from Dalian in the mainland.
The baby seals each weighed between 18kg and 38kg now, up from about 10kg after their birth, said Polar Adventure curator Philip Wong Wing-hong. The boys sport fluffy coats at birth, but two have already shed them. The youngest squirt, Sammy, is expected to do so about a month later. “Sonny is the most energetic of the three. He swam for the first time just 32 hours after he was born,” he said.“Ocean is the friendliest and loves interacting with the trainers.”
The spotted seal – the only type of seal found in China – can live up to 35 years and weigh a maximum of 130kg.
The spotted seal (Phoca largha, Phoca vitulina largha), also known as the larga or largha inhabits ice floes and waters of the north Pacific Ocean and adjacent seas. It is primarily found along the continental shelf of the Beaufort, Chukchi, Bering and Okhotsk Seas and south to the northern Yellow Sea and it migrates south as far as northern Huanghai and the western Sea of Japan. It is also found in Alaska from the southeastern Bristol Bay to Demarcation Point during the ice-free seasons of summer and autumn when spotted seals mate and have pups.

The Rebbetzin
Chaya Moussia Shneerson
Rebbetzin Chaya (Moussia) Mushka Schneerson was born in Babinovitch, near the Russian city of Lubavitch, on Shabbat, the 25th of Adar, in 1901. She was the second of three daughters of the sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak and his wife, Rebbetzin Nechama Dina Schneersohn.
When she was born, her grandfather, the fifth Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Shalom DovBer, was travelling abroad and he telegraphed her father, "...Mazal tov on the birth of your daughter ...if she has not yet been named, she should be called Chaya Mushka (the name of the wife of the Tzemach Tzedek [the third Lubavitcher Rebbe])."
From her earliest years, the Rebbetzin absorbed the purity and holiness that surrounded her, both in the house of her grandfather and that of her father.
The EarlyYears
In the autumn of 1915, during World War I, Chaya Mushka and her family fled Lubavitch and settled in Rostov. While in Rostov, Rabbi Shalom DovBer became ill, and nineteen-year- old Chaya Mushka affectionately cared for her grandfather, spending nights at his side. Before his passing in 1920, Rabbi Shalom DovBer blessed Chaya Mushka and left several Chasidic classics to her in his last will.
Her early twenties saw the intensification of the Communist war against the Jewish soul and the beginning of her father's heroic struggle. During those dark Soviet nights, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak had his daughter Chaya Mushka at his side.
Cognizant of her wisdom and strength, her father involved her in much of his work. Young Chaya Mushka was asked to secretly transport food and supplies to

Rostov's underground Yeshiva, in the knowledge that she could be relied upon for her discerning judgment.
Life became increasingly dangerous for the Jews of Rostov, and in the spring of 1924 her family moved to Leningrad, where Chaya Mushka's involvement continued.
In a recently discovered document dated December 4, 1924, her father wrote:
I hereby empower citizen Chaya Moussia Yosepuvna (daughter of Yosef) Schneersohn, residing at Machovaya Street 12/22, apartment 10, to receive monies on my behalf or documents that are addressed to me, in all forms, from the government bank and all of its branches and offices, and from other banks, government or communal, or from other organizations or private persons or by telegraph.
Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka was 23 years old at the time.
The persecution was relentless, and in 1927 thenotorious communist police came to arrest her father in their Leningrad home. Maintaining her composure, she brilliantly managed to alert the Rebbe (her husband- to-be) who was in the street, calling out: "Schneerson, guests have come to visit us!" Understanding her message, the Rebbe was quickly able to notify others to take the necessary precaution and begin the international campaign for his release.
Following his arrest and imprisonment in Leningrad, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak was exiled to Kostroma. Upon his request, she was allowed to join him for the journey. On the 12th of Tammuz, she was the bearer of good news when she notified her family in Leningrad of her father's release.
In the autumn of 1927, on the day after Simchat Torah, the Schneersohn family left the Soviet Union

this day that bound me to you, and you to me…"
The War Years
Following their wedding, the young couple lived in Berlin until 1933. When the Nazi regime took power in the spring of 1933, they fled to Paris. The Rebbetzin was known to have taken university courses while also assisting the Rebbe with his.
In 1939, Germany triggered World War II by launching a blitzkrieg (lightning attack) against Poland. Chaya Mushka's father, aided by international intervention spearheaded by Americans, managed to leave early in 1940 while Germany was still officially at peace with the United States. Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak and some family members miraculously arrived in the United States on the last boat to cross the Atlantic ocean before the U-boat blockade began. Once in New York City, herfather set in motion efforts to rescue his family from the impending cataclysm in Europe.
In May 1940, France was invaded by German forces and surrendered within four weeks. A French puppet regime led by Marshal Philippe Petain and Pierre Laval was established in Vichy, and the Rebbe and the Rebbetzin, like most Jews, fled to Nice in southern France, choosing to live under Petain's government rather than direct Nazi occupation in Paris and the surrounding areas.
In the course of their flight, there was a devastating bombardment. As people ran in every direction, she noticed an explosive shell heading towards a man next to her. Quickly pushing him to the ground, the Rebbetzin saved the man's life. Recounting this story the Rebbetzin characteristically said, "True, I saved his life,

whom did the books belong?" the Rebbetzin famously answered: "My father himself, and everything he had, including the books, belong to the Chasidim.
Her words, spoken with such sincerity and conviction, with all the bearing it had on her own life, made a profound impression upon the judge and helped to sway the judgment in favor of Agudas Chasidei Chabad.
Her Passing
The Rebbetzin passed away on Wednesday, the 22nd of Shevat, 1988, after a brief illness. Her burial took place a few hours afterwards at the Chabad cemetery in Queens, New York.
Shortly before her passing, Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka requested a glass of water. After reciting the blessing, "...by Whose word all things come into being," she returned her soul to her Maker.
In a farewell to a true queen, the funeralprocession was fifteen thousand strong, led by an official police motorcade.
She was interred next to her grandmother, Rebbetzin Shterna Sarah, and near her father, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak.
The Rebbe pointed out that Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak passed away in Shevat, as did his grandmother, Rebbetzin Rivka, his mother, Rebbetzin Shterna Sarah, and his daughter, Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka.
On Monday, the 25th of Adar, 1988, anniversary of the Rebbetzin's birthday, the Rebbe spoke about the significance of a birthday in Jewish life and launched a worldwide Birthday-Campaign. The campaign popularized birthday customs such as increasing one's Torah study, prayer, and the giving of charity.

I think you have some explaining to do ‘Tyler,’ Schwartz wrote on Twitter, with a picture of Evans on the 1999 version of the board game, where he was known as being one of the three mystery men, named Tyler, the “beach date.”
At the time, Evans would have been only 18-years-old, and had yet to appear in a single film.
“I can’t believe my twelve year old self was dating chris evans this whole time,” Schwartz joked in a second tweet.
Mystery Date was released in 1965 and primarily marketed towards young girls. The objective of the game is for the player to assemble an outfit by acquiring three matching color-coded cards, which then must match the outfit of the date at the mystery door.

There are many wars in the Bible, and God often serves as the Commander in Chief. But from a spiritual perspective, the real wars we face are the inner wars of good against evil: of love for God against lust for power, of love for others against greed and self-indulgence.
As long as we have selfish and materialistic desires in our hearts, we will come into conflict with others. It is the desire for power that drives our efforts to control others and conquer their lands. It is the

takes another eight chapters to get to the first war, involving a rebellion and a major campaign of re-subjugation pitting various kings against one another (Genesis 14:1–12). Later in the Bible many wars are described, including the Israelites’ own extended war, by God’s command, against the inhabitants of the land of Canaan and surrounding areas. These wars stretch through eight books of the Bible starting with the book of Judges.
If there are so many wars in the Bible, many of them at God’s command, how can a Christian object to war? Even Jesus, the “Prince of Peace,” used a whip to drive merchants out of the temple courts (John 2:13–16).

Rock Rolls Out Gags
Chris Rock has been prepping in comedy clubs for his gig as an Oscar presenter Sunday. The comic — who sources say will hand out the Best Animated Film honor because of his role in “Madagascar 3” — surprised audiences at two New York clubs this week when he suddenly dropped by to test material. He appeared at Stand Up NY on Wednesday night, where he was overheard consoling comic Jodie Wasserman, whom he’d bumped from the lineup at the last minute, saying, “Sorry about that, but I’m presenting at the Oscars.” A night before, spies said Rock arrived at 10:30 p.m. at the Comedy Cellar, where he followed another surprise act, Louis C.K., as well as Allan Havey and Gary Gulman.

Ladonna Christian, 46, of San Francisco, was arrested Thursday evening after she allegedly robbed and assaulted the young girl on Divisadero and Eddy streets around 1:45 p.m. last Monday, according to police.
The girl was selling candy in front of a store with a group of children when Christian allegedly came up to her at a moment when the girl was alone, police said.
Allegedly, Christian asked for change for the bus and when the girl reached into a moneybag to give her the

Trunk, appearing pro se, filed the instant appeal. We now affirm the judgment of the district court.
2
On December 12, 1989, Trunk was residing in Tefft, Indiana, located in the northern part of Jasper County. Trunk left his house driving a purple tow truck with his girlfriend, Mary Harbert, to buy beer and cigarettes at a bar located in the nearby town of San Pierre, Indiana. Paul Carter, an acquaintance of Trunk, who remained at the house after Trunk and Harbert left, telephoned the Jasper County Sheriff's Department and advised Officer Risner that Trunk was intoxicated, that he was driving in a reckless manner, and that he was armed with a small caliber automatic weapon. Carter also told Risner that Trunk was driving a purpletow truck and that he was en route to his residence in Tefft, Indiana from San Pierre. This information was thereafter radio dispatched to Officer Cain.1 Cain responded to the call and observed a purple tow truck at the intersection of State Road 10 and County Road 400 East and recognized it as the vehicle described over the police radio. Cain pursued the vehicle, turning on his red flashing lights in an effort to stop the vehicle. Trunk who, as indicated by Carter, was driving the tow truck, did not see the flashing lights until he was pulling into his driveway.

Deputy Cain parked his vehicle on the curb, approached the tow truck, and asked Trunk to produce his driver's license and vehicle registration.

Trunk responded in a loud and abusive tone, insisting that Cain was trespassing on his property. Cain asked Trunk to exit the tow truck so that he could frisk him for weapons. Trunk complied and no weapons were found. At this time, officers Perry and Williams, who were also responding to the dispatch, arrived at the Trunk Residence. Cain then asked Trunk for consent to search the tow truck for weapons. Trunk complied. The search of the truck revealed an open container of alcohol and a six pack of beer in the cab of the vehicle. As a result of Cain's loud and abusive behavior and the discovery of alcoholic beverages in the truck, Cain requested Trunk to take a seatin his patrol car, which he did. Trunk then submitted to a breathalyzer test. A computer check revealed that Trunk had only a learner's permit to operate a vehicle which could be used only when accompanied by a licensed driver over the age of 18 years. Cain then asked officer Perry to contact the passenger in the vehicle, Mary Harbert, to establish whether she had a valid driver's license. Since Harbert had left the tow truck and entered Trunk's residence, Perry knocked on the front door of the residence. Harbert opened the door, and Perry questioned her about the weapon which Cain was suspected of having and asked her whether she held a valid driver's license. Harbert stated that she was not

in possession of a weapon and that she did not have any information regarding one. Harbert then invited Deputy Perry into the residence regarding his request for identification. Perry followed her into the front room of the residence from the porch and checked the contents of her purse. Perry did not find a valid driver's license. This information was relayed to Cain. Trunk continued to be antagonistic and verbally abusive and was advised that if his conduct continued, he would be taken to jail for disorderly conduct. Trunk was issued a traffic citation for driving with a learner's permit without being accompanied by a licensed driver. Trunk was not taken into custody.

Rather, it was Harbert who asked Perry to enter the residence so he could check the contents of her purse. Affidavit of Orville Perry, Dec. 9, 1992, at 3. Viewing the record and all inferences in a light most favorable to Trunk, there is no question that Harbert consented to Perry's entry into the house, that she had actual authority to do so, and that her consent was voluntary.

Trunk argues, however, that Officer Cain's stopping of his vehicle in his driveway, administration of the breathalyzer test, and searching of his vehicle was designed to prevent Trunk from being in his house thereby allowing Officer Perry to search

The whole exhibition was a non-traditional portrait of Paul, so I traveled to his hometown of Huntsville, Alabama to photograph the forest that has grown up behind his childhood home, along the edge of a subdivision.

Syrian government troops, backed by Russian airstrikes, are waging a daily struggle to retake every inch of territory from the Islamic State terrorists in the province of Deir-ez Zor.
Over the past week, Russian jets have intensified their sorties, conducting up to 150 surgical strikes against terrorist convoys coming into Syria from Iraq, according to the Russian Ministry of Defense.
RT's Murad Gazdiev managed to get first-hand experience of the fighting as he accompanied the Syrian military across the only bridge over the Euphrates river in the area – straight to the frontline in Hatla village in Deir-ez

Sherborne had been an important strategic outpost for the king in the west country. As a result of its surrender, Earl Robert's power extended from the Bristol Channel to the south coast of Dorset.

Radio Nova (Ireland)
Radio Nova was a pirate radio station broadcasting from Dublin, Ireland. Owned and operated by the UK pirate radio veteran Chris Cary, the station's first broadcasts were during the summer of 1981 on 88.5 MHz FM and 819 kHz AM.
Early history
Prior to Nova's arrival, Irish radio consisted of the government broadcaster RTÉ and a number of local AM pirate stations. Radio Nova was the first station in Ireland to use a high powered signal on FM. By 1982 Radio Nova was pulling in over 40% of the available audience around Dublin. In September 1982 Radio Nova (operating on 88.1FM and 819AM at the time) introduced a new service called Kiss FM on 102.7 MHz - inspired by Los Angeles-based 102.7 KIIS-FM.
Prior to May 1983 the stations had been allowedWINNIPEG -- Manitoba Premier Brian Pallister says he has no time for talk about western separation and is ready to work with a Liberal minority in Parliament.

The federal Conservatives gained two seats in Manitoba in yesterday's election -- for a total of seven -- and the Liberals lost three to end up with four.

Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe says there's a fire of frustration burning in the West that only Trudeau can douse by scrapping the federal carbon tax, reworking equalization and getting pipelines built.

There was one time when a local gangster thought I had ratted him out to the cops and took me for a ride in his car with a bunch of heavies. Another time, I followed a dodgy contact to Camberwell, into a room full of Cambodian smack dealers with sharpened machetes who stared me down and muttered in Khmer. I bought my bag of weed and did my best to smile as broadly as possible, with lots of pleases and thank yous, like a tourist trying to order coffee in Paris. Mum and Dad had no problem with my smoking weed, provided I didfriends who'd asked for them specifically, they held no interest for me. I partly assumed, as with asparagus, I would learn to enjoy them once I was a little older and my tastes had matured, but for now I felt too young. Dad was a crusading moralist at times, but a miser first and foremost. He wasn't happy that I was pushing drugs, but he admired the economics of the cottage-industry mafia I was at the helm of. He sat down and ran through the sums with me, carefully double checking the profit margins. "When you buy in this amount, how much does an ounce cost you?" he asked. I named a figure.
He smiled. "And what would it cost me?" So I started selling weed to my parents.

A man who was shot to death late last month in South Seattle was in a confrontation that led to his death, the man arrested for his homicide allegedly told police.
The victim, Andrew Johnson, has a history of being uncooperative and dangerous, according to police, and court records show he was previously enrolled at a mental health facility.
The 23-year-old man who police say shot Johnson March 28 was arrested April 2 and the following morning booked into King County Jail, where he remains on $1 million bail. He was arrested in the 4500 block of 12th Avenue South.
Seattlepi.com is not naming the suspect because he hasn't been charged.

They found Johnson unresponsive. The 24-year-old died at the scene from wounds to the head and chest.
Johnson's case is the fourth homicide in Seattle this year and was the first since Feb. 9. His case is the first from 2010 in which a suspect has been arrested.
The night of the shooting, police say the suspect, another man and two women were in a vehicle parked in the 4600 block of South Brandon Street. The driver noticed Johnson walking toward the vehicle then Johnson suddenly came at him through the driver's side window, according to court documents.
The driver accelerated and lost sight of Johnson. He then2900 block of South Byron Street. Officer Darryl D'Ambrosio got out of his patrol car with his Glock pistol drawn.
"I ordered (Johnson) to drop the machete and get down on the ground," D'Ambrosio wrote. "(Johnson) smiled at me and turned and fled west to the southeast corner of the building."
Another officer, also with his gun drawn, ordered Johnson to drop the machete and get down.
Johnson "huddled at the corner of the building, still trying to conceal the 12-1/2 inch machete," D'Ambrosio wrote. "(He) was making eye contact with us and smiling at us." Police then used the Taser to take him into custody, according to the report.
The man who was with Johnson told police they had been drinking in the International District earlier that Friday night. They continued

The summer sun set a few times, we all blinked, and here we are. The Dallas Cowboys have catapulted themselves into the playoff race after winning five straight games. They've got the rest of the NFC East behind them, yet they're still standing with their backs still against the wall.
After showing out in training camp, Woods has started 12 of 13 games for Dallas, and has been a dominant force up the middle. He's become a staple not only in hisown right, but picking up slack for injuries to David Irving and Maliek Collins throughout the season.
"It's a meritocracy," Garrett said. "He's gotten to where he is based on the merits. How he comes to practice, the plays he's made, the impact he's had in games, he was outstanding against [the Eagles] the other day. He got one of the game balls on defense."
The groundwork for the success in December was laid months ago. This defense – these linemen – have planted their goals, tended to the soil, watered it day in and day out, so that we can all enjoy the fruits of their labor.

"The nation's top running back, he started off slowly, but he's shown good
vision and balance, he hits the whole quick, doesn't do much dancing or juking,
and gets to the next level. He's a very good receiver out of the backfield
and he's the best overall blocker of the three guys on the east time and the
best part about him is that he's a leader, he's very competitive and has a
strong desire to win." – Bob Lichtenfels
"In my opinion, Prater's the best receiver in the country. He excels in
every facet of the game and he's a matchup problem for any corner due to his 6-5
frame. The most impressive aspect of his game is his ability to adjustto
a poorly thrown ball and his ability to go up and get anything thrown to him." –

"Christian started out as a linebacker, was shifted to tight end on Tuesday,

Lichtenfels
"The East offensive line hasn't looked spectacular but Crisp has been one of the
few bright spots. He's very athletic on the hoof. He could use a

After the long-term exposure to cadmium chloride in drinking water, the Wistar rats developed peripheral polyneuropathy. The main lesion was of myelin degeneration. Ultrastructural examination of the roots and sciatic nerves revealed segmental demyelination beginning from the node of Ranvier. There was the active autophagocytosis of Schwann cells which contained a number of myelin remnants and dense bodies. There was, on the other hand, the evidence of remyelination with toxic damage, in which the thinner myelin sheaths and abnormal myelinations were observed with increase of Schwann cells containing rich ribosomes. Axoplasmic changes were minimal, but consisted of accumulation of glycogen particles which very often produced glycogenosomes in characteristic appearance with axoplasmal dysfunction.

The second magnetic thin film 200 has the temperature characteristics of the magnetization and coercivity shown in FIG. 104. The external magnetic field Hex is so set as to satisfy EQU Hc2<Hex
In the example described, the external magnetic field Hex is 1 kilo-oersteds. The recording operation is similar to that described above. But the initialization of the second magnetic thin film 200 is achieved by setting the external magnetic field to be higher than the coercivity of the second magnetic thin film 200 so as to satisfy the same condition as the recording medium shown in FIG. 102.

Sure, during WWII, everyone in the US had a job, but with war-time restrictions and rationing, these employed people couldn't buy anything.

After progressing through the youth teams, Neuer made his Germany under debut on 15 August against the Netherlands. Neuer was called up on 19 May to the senior German squad for a tour of Asia.
Although he took responsibility for the first goal conceded, manager Joachim Löw refused to blame him and instead commended him for doing his best.
Adler, however, suffered a serious rib injury which ruled him out of the upcoming World Cup — Neuer became Germany's first choice goalkeeper ahead of Tim Wiese and Hans-Jörg Butt for the tournament.
He provided the assist for Miroslav Klose 's opening goal against

has earned critical acclaim from former players and pundits for his speed, stamina, composure, concentration, consistency, and mentality, as well as for being able to adapt to any given situation on the pitch.
He is particularly known for his exceptional reflexes, shot-stopping abilities, speed, and footwork, as well as his ability to read the game, and come out to collect crosses, which enables him to command his area effectively.
When the situation demands, he will also often essentially fill the role of a sweeper when opposing players have beaten the offside trap or his team's defensive line, by quickly rushing out of goal to anticipate opponents and clear the ball; his skill, speed and decision-making in this area enables his teams to maintain a high defensive line.
Because of his uniqueplaying style, Neuer has been described as a "sweeper-keeper", and has been credited with revolutionising the role of the goalkeeper in modern times.
He has also been praised by pundits for his positioning between the posts, as well as his ability in one-on-one situations; furthermore, he is effective at stopping penalties, and — uncommon for a goalkeeper — has also been known to take and score them in shoot-outs.
A former outfield player in his youth, in addition to his goalkeeping ability, Neuer has also been praised for his excellent ball control and for his accurate distribution of the ball with both his hands and feet; his long throwing range and ability to kick the ball into deep areas with either foot enables him to the play the ball out

on the ground or create plays or launch swift counter-attacks from the back.
Regarding his technical skills on the ball in comparison to other players in his role, Neuer has stated that he could play in the German third division as a centre-back if so desired.
Due to his leadership and vocal presence in goal, he also excels at communicating with his defenders and organising his team's defensive line.
Neuer was born in Gelsenkirchen , North Rhine-Westphalia. His brother Marcel is currently a football referee in the Verbandsliga.
Neuer is a Catholic , and lends his support to a Gelsenkirchen-based Catholic social action group which campaigns against child poverty as well as a Gelsenkirchen-based youth club run by the Amigonians.
Neuer started a charity foundation for children, named the Manuel Neuer Kids Foundation.On 21 May , Neuer married longtime girlfriend Nina Weiss in Tannheim , Austria, in a civil ceremony, which was followed by a church wedding in the Cathedral of Santissima della Madia in Monopoli , Italy on 10 June.
After a wrong translation of his statement "it would be good if a professional football player came out because it would help others to do the same", a South American publication concluded that he was gay, which was taken up by many other media and is since widely believed in the Spanish speaking world.
In the penalty shoot-out, I was convinced that he would aim for his favourite spot. He took and scored the third penalty for Bayern and also saved the first penalty taken by Juan Mata , but could

again against Denmark. Neuer's "sweeper-keeper" playing style distinguished him from other starting goalkeepers in the World Cup.
This was credited with allowing his teammates to press deep in their opponents' half, plus Neuer's willingness to come out and challenge opposing attackers caused them to miss shots on net.
After keeping clean sheets in group matches against Portugal and the United States , Neuer recorded his third clean sheet of the World Cup in the 1—0 quarter-final defeat of France.
This was his 22nd clean sheet overall in his 50th appearance for die Nationalmannschaft. Neuer won the Golden Glove award for the tournament's best goalkeeper.
On 31 May During the tournament, Neuer did not concede any goals during Germany's three group games against Ukraine , Poland and Northern Ireland.
Neither did he concede agoal in the round of 16 against Slovakia. With this, Neuer established a new record by not conceding a goal in a major tournament for minutes.
The previous record-holder was his compatriot Sepp Maier who didn't concede a goal for minutes. A 1—1 draw after extra-time saw the match go to a penalty shoot-out, in which Neuer helped Germany to a 6—5 victory by saving two spot kicks, including one from Bonucci; he was elected the Man of the Match for his performance.
Prior to the start of qualification, on 1 September , Neuer was named new captain of the national team, following Bastian Schweinsteiger 's retirement from international football.

both of his generation and of all time, Neuer is widely regarded as a "complete" and modern goalkeeper.
He is regarded by some in the sport to be the best goalkeeper in football since Lev Yashin , who is widely considered to be the greatest goalkeeper of all time and the only goalkeeper to have won the Ballon d'Or.
A tall, large, athletic, and physically strong player, Neuer has earned critical acclaim from former players and pundits for his speed, stamina, composure, concentration, consistency, and mentality, as well as for being able to adapt to any given situation on the pitch.

his wife Hannah and their children when Israel launched “Operation Protective Edge” on July 8 of 2014 with aerial bombardments and followed it up a week later with a ground invasion. The Israeli government cited as its instigation the kidnapping and murder of three teenagers by Hamas in June of that year, and the reprisals were fierce: Hundreds of rockets fell on Gaza, many on residential neighborhoods. In the 51-day conflict that ensued, 66 Israeli soldiers were killed and 87 civilians wounded. In contrast, over 2300 Gazans were killed, and well over 10,000 wounded, the vast majority civilians.
Saif's short, indelibly memorable book chronicles his family's day-to-day experience of living through Operation Protective Edge, which for all adult Gazans was just the latest in a nearly-unbroken string of suchson Mostafa is eager to keep up with the latest international soccer results. The family watches Sponge Bob Square Pants during rare intervals of working electricity. But Saif pays a heavy price for safeguarding as much of his children's innocence as he can.

district, where the war had become “an everyday song, forever playing in the background.” Residents all over Gaza slowly began piecing their lives back together, rebuilding their shattered homes and schools, caring for their wounded, doing what they can to restore normal routines, and after the initial celebrations in the streets ended, the somber postwar reality settles in. Saif touches only briefly on that reality – thousands of bombed-out families still living in emergency shelters, a runaway rental market gouging astronomical rents out of displaced people, the scarcity of the raw materials necessary to rebuild flattened homes and scorched farms and orchards – but those details underscore the bleak difference between a Gaza diary and most other specimens of the genre. Victor Klemperer and Mary Chestnut may haverecorded similar portions of ruin and destitution in their war diaries, but at least their wars were over: Their future, however uncertain, wouldn't include the Third Reich or the Confederacy.
Not so Gaza, of course. Just this last May, large-scale violence erupted again, with Hamas launching mortars and Israel launching air strikes and Gaza civilians being caught in the crossfire as always. In many ways, the saddest thing about "The Drone Eats with Me" is how long it's likely to remain timely.

A New Jersey Democrat On His Lack Of Wins In Congress
Tuesday, Democratic Rep. Rob Andrews of New Jersey announced that he'd be resigning from office. Andrews proposed 646 bills during his 23 years in Congress, and none of them passed. The Washington Post dubbed it the "worst record of the last 20 years." He speaks with NPR's Arun Rath about his record and why he is leaving Congress.
On Capitol Hill this week, another congressman is calling it quits. Representative Rob Andrews, a Democrat from New Jersey, will be resigning a week from Tuesday. In his 23 years in Congress, Andrews proposed 646 bills, and none of them was ever enacted. The Washington Post called it the, quote, "worst record of the last 20 years."
I spoke with Andrews earlierTwo Swiss, One Spaniard – Why Wawrinka Succeeded Where Federer Failed
When Wawrinka held aloft the Australian Open trophy it was the culmination of years of sitting on the cusp of a breakthrough. There were hints of course – the two epic five set matches against Novak Djokovic at the Australian and US Opens in 2013 for one. Long possessed of one of (if not the) finest one hand backhands in the game, Stanislas Wawrinka finally stepped out of Roger Federer’s shadow, doing so with an exclamation point by beating Nadal in the final a mere two days after Federer fell to the Spaniard himself. While some Nadal fans point to his injury as being the deciding factor in the final, Wawrinka was clearly outplaying Nadal right up until

movement going forward that showed a marked improvement in this area. Indeed if one can be forgiven the obvious reference, there were shades of Edberg in his prime showing in the way that Federer closed ground to the net to finish points off. However one key element in this has been the timing with which Federer has done so. There has been a patience to the whole process – a sense of waiting for the precise moment. Often times Federer has simply hit an aggressive ground stroke, then only started moving forward when his opponent was clearly off-balance or committed to a defensive shot. Against Murray, who possesses one of the better passing games in tennis, Federer went 49 of 66 (74%) in his net approaches. Against Tsongathe open court for a winner. Wawrinka again ran the ball down and drove a passing shot that Nadal couldn’t return. Then finally on break point Wawrinka ran around a body serve to hit a solid top-spin forehand return. However it was solid, not spectacular. Wawrinka started the point neutral, not ahead, and it was only through superior pattern play (namely breaking down Nadal’s backhand) that he clinched the break.
As the match progressed, Wawrinka showed a willingness to move aggressively to his left after Nadal’s ball toss, particularly on second serves. However on the ad side this availed him little as he was still stuck far outside the sidelines making his return. He had much better success when he stepped forward to cut off the angle and sliced

The CHS included 239 questions on health behavior, physical characteristics, vaccination, morbidity, prescription use, accidents, addictions, activity level, quality of life, education, and economic status, etc. across 18 fields. The CHS had previously created a "sample extraction framework" used the entire country's address data from the Ministry of Security and Public Administration and the housing types and the household data from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport. Subsequently, based on this framework, the CHS extracted about 900 participants from each community health center. After extracting the participants, a well- trained investigator visited each participant's house to perform the survey. The investigators interviewed participants one-to-one and entered the data into a computer.

STATEMENT OF FACTS AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY
On January 5, 1990, Herrick began working as a security guard for Quality. Steve Wilson, his supervisor and the director of security, told *1613 Herrick he was to patrol the grounds and the garage and help guests with questions regarding safety. Additionally, Herrick was to watch for transients, make sure cars were secure, handle noise and other complaints and to make sure employees were not stealing items from the hotel. Herrick was not allowed to carry a gun. It was "stipulated" in the employee handbook that

guns were not allowed on the premises or to be worn at any time.
Herrick did not like Wilson. Herrick noticed that on numerous occasions Wilson carried a gun and would show it to Herrick and other employees. Wilson lived in the hotel and had the guns in the hotel.
On one occasion, Waddah Anani, the general manager of Quality, was present when Wilson showed his gun to another employee. Herrick told Anani about Wilson's guns, and Anani said he knew about them and not to worry. The guns made Herrick feel very uneasy.
About a month before the within incident, Herrick observed Wilson grab a female employee and pull her as she was attempting to go into an elevator to speak to Anani. Herrick believed Wilson said, "come here, bitch.You are not going up there." The employee "jerked away," and before Herrick knew it, the police were there and Wilson was handcuffed and led away. Herrick believed the charges against Wilson were later dropped. Anani witnessed Wilson's arrest.
Prior to Herrick's termination as a security guard, he had been written up for various performance problems with the hotel. One time, Wilson gave Herrick a written reprimand for leaving the hotel premises during working hours even though Wilson had given Herrick permission. On another occasion, Herrick was reprimanded for being late even though he had called.
On March 10, 1990, Herrick's car would not start and he borrowed a friend's car to get to work. Herrick called his employer and said he would be late. When Herrick arrived at 9:15,

left, went to an adjacent hotel and telephoned Anani. Herrick said that Wilson had just pulled a gun on him and *1614 threatened to blow Herrick's head off. Anani said that Wilson had just talked to him and asked Herrick to come over to talk. Anani reassured Herrick, "don't worry. I'll be there. We will talk. Don't worry."
Herrick went to the hotel lobby, "shaking like a leaf," and saw that Anani was not there. Herrick saw Wilson come in the side entrance of the hotel and Herrick was "shaking even more." Herrick went to Anani's room and was livid, excited and nervous. Anani asked Herrick to come to the office and again assured Herrick nothing was going to happen.
Anani brought Wilson into the office, and Wilson denied hehad pulled a gun on Herrick. Anani told Herrick that Wilson was a good security director and that Anani did not believe Wilson had pulled a gun on Herrick. Anani said no action would be taken against Wilson. Herrick left and called the police.
Herrick told the police what had happened. The police went to Wilson's room and returned with a handgun. Herrick identified the gun as the one that was used on him. Herrick saw Wilson being led away in handcuffs.
Following the incident, Herrick was up the whole night in the bathroom; he had diarrhea and was throwing up. Even though Herrick was a large man, it did not mean anything "when you have a gun in [your] face." Herrick could not go to sleep and was just

trial he was not doing any of these things. At the time of trial, he still had nightmares every now and then, seeing a gun in his face and someone trying to shoot him.
Wilson testified that he was employed by Quality as security manager and had worked for Quality for four years. On occasion, Wilson had to advise Herrick regarding his job duties. On several occasions, Herrick reported to *1615 work late. There was no policy at the hotel that tardiness was excused if you called in advance. On March 10, Herrick was still under his 90-day probation period and it was Wilson's intention to discharge Herrick as a result of his lateness and unexcused absences. Prior to March 10, Wilson thought he and Herrick got along prettywell.
Wilson testified that following the incident with a female employee, he "volunteered for an arrest" and rode in the front seat of the police car without handcuffs. He was thereafter released and no charges were filed against him. Wilson owned firearms but did not flaunt them about the hotel. At no time during the incident with Herrick did Wilson display a firearm or threaten to kill Herrick. During the meeting with Herrick and Anani, Herrick was upset that he had been let go and wanted his job back. After Anani refused to give Herrick his job back, Herrick threatened that unless he got his job back he would call the police and tell them that Wilson had pulled a gun on him.

Humans can adapt to the heat and throughout a normal summer they became less sensitive to hot temperatures. However, heatwaves are by definition intense and that’s why deaths can typically occur during its first few days. National contingency plans that anticipate heatwaves are therefore crucial. As part of its Heatwave Plan for England, PHE has introduced a Heat-Health Watch System, a colour-coded alarm system designed to implement different contingency plans throughout the country.

Edinburgh earned their first Pro14 away win of the season to record a third successive derby victory over Glasgow and retain the 1872 Cup.
Richard Cockerill's side were superior throughout, their impressive pack dominating the set-piece exchanges.
Two Jaco van der Walt penalties, to one from Adam Hastings, saw the visitors lead 6-3 after a feisty first half.
Stuart McInally's try stretched their advantage and a blunted Glasgow could only muster a late George Horne try.

July 6, 2016 - NewYork-Presbyterian's Comprehensive Health Program and Project STAY, an initiative of the Harlem Heath Promotion Center (HHPC) at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health has received two grants totaling more than $3.75 million from the New York State Department of Health AIDS Institute for their continued efforts to prevent HIV/AIDS in at-risk youth. The funds will be disbursed over five years, starting July 1, for comprehensive health programs targeting at-risk populations in New York City.
Project STAY provides confidential health services to people between the ages of 13 and 24 who are affected by HIV/AIDS and has two components: the Specialized Care Center, which serves HIV-positive youth, and the Youth Access Program, which conducts community outreach and screening and provides information about medical and mentalhealth services for young people engaged in risk-taking behaviors.
"We're extremely grateful to receive these funds," said Dr. Alwyn T. Cohall, director of the HHPC and Project STAY, and professor of Sociomedical Sciences at the Mailman School of Public Health and professor of Pediatrics at Columbia University Medical Center. "Our main challenge is to identify individuals in need of care and to treat them as soon as possible. Another big goal of ours is preventive care. Nothing will help stop the AIDS epidemic more than preventing the disease in the first place."
To do that, the programs offer education and screenings for HIV/AIDS and sexually transmitted diseases and linkages to care at local schools and colleges, workforce development agencies and programs serving LGBTQ youth. Dr. Cohall and his team also

Harlem United has a mobile medical van that serves as a "health clinic on wheels." Project STAY staff will coordinate services with Harlem United to provide screening, acute treatment and blood testing. The van will reach young people who are most at risk for HIV/AIDS, including transgender youth and men who have sex with men in the Bronx, Brooklyn and Manhattan.
"Project STAY has been and continues to be an institution-wide initiative," said Dr. Cohall. "We are able to use the combined resources at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia University Medical Center - nurses, social workers and psychiatrists, as well as interdisciplinary students from various fields including public health, nursing, social work and pre-med - to offer the most top-notch and responsive care possible. This is an incredibly useful resource forthe institution and the entire New York City community. It's a working example of how collaboration with community-based DSRIP partners such as Harlem United, among others, can be utilized to help reduce the community burden of disease. It shows that by working as a team, we can do some pretty amazing things."

Debrahlee Lorenzana was a Citigroup employee who suffered long drooling stares from co-workers and widespread discrimination from her bosses, on account of her being too sexy.
Richard Thompson Ford uses the bizarre story as a news peg for an amusing take on the legality of hiring and firing for looks.
Workplace dress codes are mostly legal unless they impose "unequal" (not just different) burdens on men and women, he writes.
For instance, in Jespersen v. Harrah's Operating Co., a bartender at a Reno, Nev., casino sued when her employer adopted a new dress code that required her to style her hair and wear makeup. Jespersen complained that she found wearing makeup "degrading." But the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals found that Harrah's grooming code was equally burdensome for men and affirmedwas elected a Fellow of the British Academy.

extensively. Thus, her Gurbani vidya was also impressive for a person of that young an age.
When Rena Kaur passed away, one Singh commented that when he had previously heard Rena Kaur’s keertan, he felt as though her voice was coming from sach khand (the realm of truth). Another Singh who was trained at Dam Dami Taksal and does seva at a gurdwara sahib in BC, said that he had often heard many people do keertan, but Rena Kaur’s voice was unique in that she sounded so present and “in the moment,” as if she was absorbed in the shabad as she sang it. This was because Guru Sahib’s hand was constantly on her head, and when she sang, it was coming from the heart of her own soul.
It’swho wore the Bana of a Gursikh, and were not understanding of the Sikh religion. Regardless of this threat, Rena Kaur began tying a dastaar and held her head up high, proud of being Guru Gobind Singh Ji’s daughter, tyaar bar tyaar and always ready to defend Sikhi.
I remember when Rena Kaur first started to tie a dastaar, we would encourage her and congratulate her so much – and she took this encouragement with humility. In fact, you could see the excitement on her face as she felt she had reached her chance to blossom.
Shastar Vidya
Rena Kaur became a member of the Shaheed Baba Deep Singh Gatka Akhara (Surrey Branch – Guru Nanak Academy) during September of 2003, under the guidance of Ustaad Charnjit Singh (Dam Dami Taksal).

miss a practice and would put everything into learning. She fought with full bir rus and would even fight Ustaad Charnjit Singh or any of the bigger Singhs fearlessly. At class, Rena Kaur would always run around with a big smile on her face, helping all the younger kids or newcomers, while also trying to learn herself. She would practice warrior songs about Sikhi and the kavitas for gatka shows. She would joke around with her teammates but was completely serious about martial arts and the power of self-discipline.
There is one incident that shows Rena Kaur’s spirit of unwavering courage and confidence that came out as she became more dedicated to the gatka akhara. Rena Kaur was walking home from Gatka class (her house was 5 to 10minutes walking distance from the place where we had Gatka classes) and it was late evening, practically nighttime. The sky and surroundings were really dark, and she was walking alone, but I remember her saying she didn’t feel afraid. As she told me afterwards, from the distance she had seen a man walking towards her, but couldn’t see his face. He walked closer, and she continued to walk, with her head held high, and she put her hand on her kirpaan. As he was coming closer to her, she knew he had bad intentions. He was some strange guy and she got really bad vibes from him. She had a feeling he was going to try do something to her.
Only a Guru’s Khalsa could do what she did

lessons that Rena Kaur instilled in us were how to live in the spirit of humility, in high spirits, and with a positive outlook on life. She taught us to balance our lives by seeing our priorities on the weigh-scale of Gurmat, rather than worldly thoughts. She taught us to recognize the importance of innocent love or bhola bhaao, rather than using our worldly cleverness. Most of all, I think she lived up to her name and taught us its value as well. She was a Kaur, a child of the Guru, and she became the Rena (dust) of the sangat’s feet, and left us with lessons on how to do the same. I’m so happy that she’s gone back home, where Guru Jee is waiting for theFORA.tv Speaker - Al Staggs

On Friday, April 27, 2012, Helga Zepp-LaRouche delivered a webcast titled, "Dialogue with Spain and Portugal On the Global Crisis and the Future of Europe." In the context of the impending collapse of the european system, which threatens the continued existence of the United States as well, we present to you the proceedings. Transcript AvailableA British conservationist is leading an audacious plan to create a chain of man-made islands in northern Sumatra that would liberate the Indonesian island's population of caged orangutans.
Dr Ian Singleton aims to create four islands of grass, shrubs and trees for sick and injured orangutans – those who are unable to be reintroduced to the natural habitat – to roam, freeing them from the 3x4m cages in which they currently reside.
Singleton is currently in the process of securing land for the islands. The ideal location would be near the coast with a consistent supply of fresh water via a stream or river.
Diggers, operated by local contractors, will then carve up the land to create moats, thereby encircling the land with water. The earth removed by the digging will

was
convicted of two felony and one misdemeanor bad check charges,
credit card theft, credit card fraud, and unlawful use of a
credit card. On June 19, 1995, the Commonwealth filed a motion
for revocation of Ms. Powell's suspended sentences citing her
1992 convictions and alleging that she had violated the terms of
her probation by suffering new convictions and by failing to pay
her court costs.
At the hearing on June 26, 1995, the Commonwealth called
both 1992 cases by record number, CR92-976 and CR92-977, but the
conviction orders were not introduced into evidence. Ms. Powell
contends that because the conviction orders were not introduced
into evidence, the trial court lacked subject matter jurisdiction
to revoke her suspended sentences. We disagree.
Broome, Madison, and Sullivan counties, one-third of caseworkers have more than 12 cases a month, with some having more than 25; Oneida county caseworkers are averaging more than 25 cases per month; and almost half of the caseworkers in Schenectady County have caseloads exceeding 12 cases.
In New York City, reports indicate that CPS workers’ caseloads are rising. The recent tragic deaths of six-year-old Zymere Perkins in September 2016, three-year-old Jaden Jordan in December 2016, and five-year-old Michael Guzman this month further reinforces the importance of preventing caseworkers from being overburdened and unable to follow up on claims of abuse. While the bill passed both houses last year, the Governor vetoed the legislation in December.

The magic of Apollo The M3 assessed the nature of lunar soils by analysing the way that light from the Sun was reflected off the surface. It could only see the top few centimetres of soil. Nasa's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, which is currently circling the Moon, has the capability to see down to nearly a metre. Its data could determine if the presence of water is much more extensive.

Unhinged, funny, and sad by turns, this movie gets to the heart of what's wrong with social media—and why it destroys people's lives.

Flyers coach Ken Hitchcock made an interesting move by giving defenseman Dennis Seidenberg his first sniff of the playoffs. After playing well for the team in 2002-03, Seidenberg found himself scratched from every playoff game last spring.
Seidenberg, who had been playing for the Phantoms since recovering from a broken leg, was going to be pressed into service because Vladimir Malakhov suffered concussion-like symptoms in Game 5 and was scratched Tuesday night.
The move also allowed Hitchcock to keep Sami Kapanen as a checking forward with the flexibility to move him back as a defenseman if things got rough. Kapanen did move back to defense early in the game.
In fact, Kapanen's play on defense

Quinn on Burke: Quinn took a few moments after Toronto's morning skate to address the Burke situation.
No, not Sean Burke; Brian Burke, who was fired as G.M. of the Vancouver Canucks on Monday night.
"Brian has done a wonderful job there," said Quinn, who was fired by Vancouver a few years ago. "Normally, that allows you to stay in a place. But there are some factors that I'm not aware of."
Quinn was less than humble when he was fired by Vancouver, but resisted the temptation to throw out any shots at Canucks ownership while his own team was getting ready to fight for its playoff life.
Pitkanen Wakes Up: It's no secret Flyers rookie defenseman JoniPitkanen earned a place in the postseason by attrition, not performance. Hitchcock said as much after announcing that Eric Desjardins would miss the entire playoff season due to a refracture of his right forearm.
But Pitkanen hasn't played that badly, and has added some offensive snap from the blue line. He's suddenly developed a willingness to hit as well, something he hadn't been doing during the regular season.
"It's very much different than the regular season," Pitkanen said. "It's fun, it's crazy, it's so fast."
Pitkanen knew the playoffs were destined to be more intense after listening to tales from some of the Flyers' veterans, but he certainly wasn't prepared for what he has seen.
"It's more challenging, but it's also more fun," he said.

night in 2004.
I caught a cab into town, travelling over the Deerfoot Trail and along John Laurie Boulevard, the dark, snow-covered emptiness punctuated with a few desolate houses in the middle of nowhere.
"Where's the city? What have I gotten myself into?" I asked myself.
But then, a revelation.
The next morning my new geography professor took me to the top of Nose Hill. Waving out over the expanse, he explained Calgary to me in terms of geography, and it changed the way I understand the city. I became fascinated with Calgary, and I have been studying it ever since.
Carving out the city
The only reason there is a Calgary at all is because of its geography.
We live on this tiny patch of the planet because thousands of years ago a monsterglacier carved out a valley and left a river — a great place for people.
The valley escarpments (think Scarboro, Briar Hill, Crescent Heights), provided a place where the First Nations could hunt by herding buffalo over cliffs. The Bow provided water. So far so good.
But the river was also a problem.
The key was finding a place to cross. The answer was the flats where the Elbow and Bow rivers meet. That's where Calgary, as we know it, was born. It was a perfect spot for a new fort when the North-West Mounted Police was moving into the area.
A river runs through it
Rivers are special. Humans evolved with a need to live in landscapes with water. It meant life, literally and figuratively, and so rivers have become the focus

fantasy author Harlan Ellison, a fan of the Rocketeer and also an acquaintance of Dave Stevens, wrote the introduction to the collection; both Dave Stevens and Harlan Ellison signed the limited edition on a specially bound-in bookplate.
The story was continued in the Rocketeer Adventure Magazine. Two issues were published by Comico Comics in 1988 and 1989; the third installment was not published until 1995, six years later by Dark Horse Comics. All three issues were then collected by Dark Horse into a glossy trade paperback titled The Rocketeer: Cliff's New York Adventure () that quickly went out-of-print.

Leah Washington, 17, underwent an amputation above the left knee. She also suffered a fractured left hand, the University Hospitals of North Midlands Trust said in a statement. Joe Pugh, 18, who was with her on the ride, suffered two broken knees, the hospital added.
Washington was one of four people seriously injured on the Smiler ride at Alton Towers in Staffordshire, central England, last Tuesday when two carriages collided.
British firm Merlin Entertainments Plc, which operates the park, said it took full responsibility for those injured and would provide compensation to all 16 victims.

On Elysian. (subtitled Prelude to Paradise.), Evers displays a greatly improved range of technique and a control of nuance and shading that is a big leap forward. Elysian. is also an intensely personal album for her; it is, more or less, her life's journey up to this point told through twelve songs (the thirteenth track is a reprise of the first one). Extensive liner notes (accompanied by evocative photos; this is a very well put together digipack thanks to photographer Gary Peterson and graphic designer Jasmine Koon) reveal each song's raison d'être and enhance the listening pleasure of each of the selections.

published in volume 6 of the Bulletin of Ecclesial Theology in 2019.
Now Available from CPT and IVP Academic
This volume includes essays and presentations from the 2017 CPT conference on the doctrine of creation. Contributors include Andy Crouch, Todd Wilson, John Walton, Deb Haarsma, Greg Waybright, and many more.
From IVP Academic
The doctrine of creation is crucial to the Christian faith, but it has often been maligned, misinterpreted, or ignored.
Some, such as pagan philosophers and Gnostics, have tended to denigrate the goodness of the material world. More recently, new questions have emerged regarding human origins in light of the Darwinian account of evolution. What does it mean today to both affirm the goodness of God's creation and anticipate the new creation?
Based on the third annual CPT conference, this volume bringstogether the reflections of church leaders, academic theologians, and scientists on the importance—and the many dimensions—of the doctrine of creation.
Contributors engage with Scripture and scientific theory, draw on examples from church history, and delve into current issues in contemporary culture in order to help Christians understand the beginning and ending of God's good creation.
