to South Africa. There, he could help treat an epidemic among animals, and his kids could learn more about their dead mother, who was born and raised there. Of course, he brought his new wife and her two children. The kids, the teens especially, are reeling from the social changes—life in an empty tourist lodge, school uniforms, feeding injured lions as part of their chores. The adults have their own struggles, such as bringing business back to the lodge where they live and keeping the family peaceful.
There’s an adolescent girly bent to the entire show, thanks to its narrator. Still, it seems like safe, interesting family viewing that doesn’t revolve around rich kids on a U.S. coast.

an op-ed article entitled “Who Runs Hollywood? C’mon” posted in the LA Times in December of 2008, renowned Jewish American journalist and author, Joel Stein talks about the entertainment industry’s “open secret”:
Jews totally run Hollywood.
How deeply Jewish is Hollywood? When the studio chiefs took out a full-page ad in the Los Angeles Times a few weeks ago to demand that the Screen Actors Guild settle its contract, the open letter was signed by: News Corp. President Peter Chernin (Jewish), Paramount Pictures Chairman Brad Grey (Jewish), Walt Disney Co. Chief Executive Robert Iger (Jewish), Sony Pictures Chairman Michael Lynton (surprise, Dutch Jew), Warner Bros. Chairman Barry Meyer (Jewish), CBS Corp. Chief Executive Leslie Moonves (so Jewish his great uncle was the first prime minister of Israel), MGM Chairman Harryand marketing campaigns for the tobacco industry among numerous other large businesses and corporate conglomerates.
One of the most famous publicity stunts Bernays orchestrated for the tobacco companies was when he had several famous actresses line up in the front of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and light up cigarettes, which until that time, had been seen as something “un-lady like”. The tobacco companies used the admiration that women had for these actresses, calling cigarettes “Torches of Freedom”, and associating them with the feminist movement. It worked quite well, creating the image of the sexy, independent, and fashionable smoking woman.
Noticing his knack for shaping public opinion, the U.S. Government recruited Bernays in its P.R. campaign to get a reluctant and isolationist American public behind the First World War. The

increasingly sophisticated methods of molding public desires and opinions, and during the Second World War, the propaganda machine was put into high gear, mobilizing the patriotism of the American public to fight a war in Europe that was not truly in their best interest. This propaganda marketing was so successful and so sophisticated; it continues to be effective to this day and is evidenced by the large volume of World War II and “Holocaust” movies produced by Hollywood as well as international (typically Jewish) filmmakers seemingly every year.
It was during and after World War II that the relationship/partnership between the U.S. Government, Hollywood, and Madison Avenue (and of course, International Finance) really became solidified. The post-war release of television brought the ability for this finely crafted visual “programming”the International Monetary Fund directly after World War II. This combine of the old American (as well as Anglo) WASP establishment and the Judeo-Zionists in finance and media proceeded to organize the biggest mafia-style racketeering operation the world had ever seen. This sort of partnership between White European elitists and Jewish opportunists has been going on for centuries, growing in scope and complexity, suffering from time to time from factional in-fighting,
In the post-World War II Globalist system, International Usury Finance would take the lead, and offer loans to developing nations with interest attached that would be impossible to ever repay. It would then make part of the deal that select Global Mega Corporations would be allowed to come into the nation and essentially pillage resources and create a

that would control the populace and enable the larger agenda, or they would simply send in the CIA Jackals to “take out” whoever was standing in the way. The CIA has been linked to numerous assassinations of world leaders since its inception. It is even well established thought that the CIA was involved in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy after he came to fully grasp their tactics and motives, and refused to comply. Kennedy stated “I will splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the winds.”
In the recently published book, “The CIA in Hollywood: How the Agency Shapes Film and Television”, author Tricia Jenkins outlines what many have known for years and what was until recently illegal under U.S. law, which wasthe direct use of the film industry as well as various television and news media outlets to conduct psychological conditioning (i.e. propaganda) operations on the American public via orders from the various Executive Branch “alphabet soup” agencies (CIA, NSA, DHS, CDC, FDA, etc.). Former CIA director William Colby stated, “The CIA owns everyone of any significance in the major media.”
The CIA specifically has conducted psy-ops through the use of media propaganda on foreign soil to manipulate populations in a manner that suited their aims for decades. However it came out in the 1975 Church Committee Hearings that the CIA used news media outlets to push propaganda and conducted illegal operations on U.S. soil, and it had done so since its inception.

media in a meeting with President Regan in 1981, former CIA director, William Casey stated “We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.”
The base of operations for one of these illegal psy-ops on U.S. soil took place at Laurel Canyon in southern California during the 1960s where the CIA and military intelligence got into the music business, and like film and television, Jews were (and still are) dominant as producers and record-label owners. The music and lifestyles that was promoted by these various music and counter-culture celebrities that came out of Laurel Canyon, etc. were designed to discredit the anti-war movement among older and more conservative populations and repel those folks from taking part in it. They were also designed toyouth. From LSD in the 60s, to Cocaine in the 70s and 80s, to the recent Opium/Heroin epidemic, the CIA has a long history of pushing drugs onto the streets of America, using that money to further fund their operations. The intelligence agencies have historically taken part in drug smuggling (which was a specific tactic of the British Empire) and sex trafficking (slave trade) to further fund themselves and demoralize and debase the population, causing destabilization.
It was during this time when the values presented to Americans via the television and film screen began to slowly degenerate and become increasingly violent, decadent, vapid, and hyper-sexualized. The prevalence and cultural acceptance of pornography (also pioneered and dominated by Jewish moguls) went hand-in-hand with the various “liberation” movements of the 60s

world faces the largest refugee crisis since World War II. Almost 60 million people around the world have been forcibly displaced from their homes. The war in Syria, fueled by the unparalleled brutality of ISIS, is largely responsible for the spike. And once more—shamefully—there is a push for the United States to turn a blind eye to the suffering of refugees and shut our doors to those in need.
It should be noted that Jewish American author, Robert I. Friedman highlighted in his book “Red Mafiya: How the Russian Mob Has Invaded America” that the Anti-Defamation League pressured and eventually convinced the FBI to call of investigations of individuals with known affiliation to the Jewish-Russian Mafia who also sought “refugee status” back in the 1970s, stating that doing sosummarize the evidence, which in view of the verdict we must do in the light most favorable to the Government.

On February 20, 1967, Leonard, "doing business under the name and style of the Leonard Process Company," a sole proprietorship, and Union Carbide Corporation (UCC) entered into a contract for engineering services in connection with the construction of two chemical plants a very large one in Taft, Louisiana, which was built, and a smaller one in South Charleston, West Virginia, which was not. Leonard's fees were to be of two sorts. One sort consisted of initial lump sum payments of $180,000 and later periodic payments of $37,000 each. The indictment did not charge that any such payments had been unreported. The other sort was a

10% override on UCC's reimbursements for amounts paid by Leonard to subcontractors performing detailed engineering services which his office was not equipped to provide. The Treadwell Corporation of New York became the subcontractor. None of these 10% overrides were reported as income for 1967 or 1968.
4
The general pattern which Leonard established was as follows: UCC would send him a single check covering the total amount owing for the subcontracted services including the 10% override, and in some cases also including the $37,000 periodic payment due to Leonard. Instead of depositing the UCC check in his bank account at First National City BankCB and then paying Treadwell, Leonard endorsed the UCC check and sent it to Treadwell. Treadwell would then send Leonard one or twobe furnished by Leonard's clumsy attempt to delete the 10% override provision from the copy of the contract that was exhibited to Revenue Agent Laski in the course of the audit.
8
Leonard's argument about the 1968 return is quite different. Conceding that he directed that the 10% payments from Treadwell, and for that matter the $37,000 payments subsequent to January, not be included in his 1968 personal income tax return, he says they were not required to be. This result follows, he claims, because in January, 1968, he formed a corporation entitled The Leonard Process Co., Inc. (hereafter Leonard Inc.) to which he transferred the business of his sole proprietorship, The Leonard Process Company. On January 18, 1968, The Leonard Process Co., Inc. filed Form

that his 1966 personal income tax return had been assigned for examination to revenue agent Rothstein.
18
Rothstein was not one of the special group of revenue agents who had been selected to pursue investigations emanating from the FBA project. On August 7, 1968, Leonard's audit was reassigned to revenue agent Mortimer Laski. In accordance with normal procedures, Laski also audited Leonard's 1965 return and, when the ordinary post-filing processing was completed, the 1967 return.
19
The audit began in normal fashion with an examination of Leonard's papers including the UCC contract with the 10% override provision deleted by a hand inked line at the office of his accountant. Sometime early in 1969, Laski met Leonard at the accountant's office. Laski did not advise Leonard of his rightbolster the proof that the omissions of the 10% override payments from Leonard's 1967 and 1968 income tax returns were wilful.
21
The evidence was of two sorts: Harris Egan, an official at the Chase Manhattan Bank (CMB) branch on United Nations Plaza, near Leonard's apartment, testified that in April, 1968, he delivered to Leonard's apartment three official CMB checks two checks for $20,000 and $25,000 dated April 12th and a $120,000 check dated April 26th. Three other official CMB checks for $64,000, $16,000 and $138,000 were delivered to Leonard later in the year. In all the checks totaled $383,000. All six checks were payable to Leonard on remittance instructions issued by Banque Cantonale de Zurich. Leonard used most of the checks to pay off a

Eva Brooke testified that in the summer of 1971, in the course of an endeavor to hire her now deceased husband, Jack Brooke, away from his then employer, Kerr-McGee Chemical Corporation, Leonard offered Brooke $100,000 a year, half to be paid in dollars and the other half to be deposited in a Swiss bank account. Later, in answer to an inquiry from Brooke, Leonard admitted to having such an account. Since this admission in 1971 was not necessarily inconsistent with the affidavit executed in August 1969, the Government also put in evidence Leonard's 1971 income tax return, executed April 10, 1972, which contained the following question and answer:

the course of trial as Exhibit 1.
Count 4 was in respect to a 20 horsepower Mercury motor also taken from the All Seasons Power Mart and referred to at trial as Exhibit 3.
*519 On the remaining three counts, the jury was unable to agree on a verdict. The trial on those three counts resulted in a mistrial.
In respect to the possession and concealment of the 10 horsepower motor stolen from All Seasons Power Mart, the following testimony was pertinent. The principal witness was Earl McLaughlin, who was referred to by the prosecution during the course of trial as a "fence." He testified that he had received each of the five motors from the defendant Nabbefeld and sold them. He had earlier pleaded guilty to one felony count ofreceiving stolen property.
In respect to Exhibit 1, McLaughlin testified that Nabbefeld told him that he had a 10 horsepower motor that he wanted to get rid of. McLaughlin then talked to Ralph Jacob, who stated he would take the motor and pay the sum of $200. McLaughlin testified that he then contacted Nabbefeld, who delivered the motor to McLaughlin's house. McLaughlin delivered the motor to a fishing partner by the name of Jack Peterson, Jacob's brother-in-law. Peterson delivered the motor to Jacob, obtained the $200 from Jacob, and turned that sum over to McLaughlin for delivery to Nabbefeld.
The testimony of McLaughlin was corroborated by that of Jacob in most respects. He acknowledged that his brother-in-law, Jack Peterson, was the intermediary between him and McLaughlin, and that he paid

$200 or $225 for the motor. He stated, however, that he at no time saw McLaughlin in respect to the transaction involving the 10 horsepower motor.
In respect to Exhibit 3, the 20 horsepower motor stolen from All Seasons Power Mart, McLaughlin testified that he was contacted by the defendant Nabbefeld, who stated that he had a motor he wanted to get rid of. McLaughlin then contacted Robert Van Groll, who told McLaughlin that he would take the motor. A price of $200 was agreed *520 upon. McLaughlin testified that, after receiving the keys from Van Groll, he took Van Groll's automobile to a warehouse, where he met the defendant Nabbefeld. Nabbefeld placed the motor in the trunk of Van Groll's car. McLaughlin then returned the car to VanGroll with the motor in the trunk, received $200 from Van Groll, and paid it over to the defendant Nabbefeld.
McLaughlin also testified that at a later date Nabbefeld told him that the motors were "hot."
An investigator from the sheriff's department testified that he subsequently acquired the motor from Van Groll.
Van Groll's testimony poses a crucial aspect of the defendant's appeal. Although, as we view the testimony, it was largely irrelevant to the complicity of the defendant Nabbefeld, it did have some relevance to the chain of custody of the 20 horsepower motor from the possession of McLaughlin to Van Groll. Van Groll testified at the preliminary hearing conducted on February 10, 1976. Van Groll, however, died prior to the first day of trial, April 12, 1976. Over the

the United States Supreme Court in this respect has recently been stated in Mancusi v. Stubbs, 408 U.S. 204 (1972). There, testimony adduced in the first trial was admitted at a subsequent trial. The defendant claimed that the introduction of this evidence violated the confrontation clause. He also claimed he had been denied effective assistance of counsel at the first trial. Under those circumstances, the court examined the situation at the first trial before reaching the conclusion that the prior testimony was admissible. The court concluded that the defense attorney at the first trial had been afforded an adequate opportunity to cross-examine the witness and that he appropriately availed himself of that opportunity. It concluded from these facts that there were sufficient indicia of reliability to afford theMBBS in KAZAKHSTAN

The solution is ALL incumbents get voted out of office until the elected officials are completely replaced, and then do not elect anyone who has held elected office before!
At the Federal level, there needs to be a correction to the retirement, and medical care. It needs to be revised to assure that the politicians retire with Social Security, and Medicare, and no special retirement plans and no special medical coverage. Both of these systems would get fixed post haste.

["CMI"], a Missouri corporation. CMI manufactured and distributed pressure washers and automatic baseball pitching machines from the time of its incorporation, 1962, until it was dissolved in 1975.
*1088 B. Statement of the Case
On February 22, 1977, Inspector Jerome Boog of the Consumer Product Safety Commission inspected defendant at its premises in Spring Park, Minnesota. During this inspection, Boog obtained information regarding a possible defect in the CMI pitching machine.
After receiving injury data from Advance, and verifying the presence of a defect through an engineering analysis of the pitching machine, the Commission, on June 29, 1977, inspected Dudley Sports Company, ["Dudley"], a division of Athlone Industries Inc. ["Athlone"], the primary distributor and private labeler of the pitching machines.
On July 28, 1977, the Commission filed an action in the UnitedStates District Court for the District of Columbia, pursuant to section 12 of the CPSA, 15 U.S.C. § 2061, against Advance, CMI, Dudley, Athlone, and five other defendants, seeking an injunction and a declaration that the automatic baseball pitching machines they manufactured and distributed in interstate commerce were imminently hazardous consumer products causing numerous severe injuries. The suit also sought repair of all existing machines. The Commission alleged that the pitching machine, even when disconnected from its power source, retained such a high degree of tension in its spring and cable that, at the slightest vibration, the pitching arm would unexpectedly swing forward and downward at great speed, striking any person within its range.
The proceedings in that action continued for almost a year before the parties agreed in

"If a product can bring people together to work or play in a collaborative way ... it creates an added social value, and that's where it gets interesting," he said. "The Wii radically changed the relationship people have with gaming. Similarly, touch-screen has the ability to do the same in the PC market."
The TouchSmart falls into the emerging all-in-one desktop category -- that is, computers with the hard drive and working mechanisms all located within the screen. That's an important distinction, because while desktop sales continue to fall, all-in-ones are "the one bright spot" in that moribund category, Mr. Kay said.

The views of SNP supporters and our "English nationalists" are often very different from each other.
No less than 70% of "English nationalists" say that "England was better in the past" and only 13% that its "best years are still in the future".
In contrast, just 16% of SNP supporters believe that "Scotland was better in the past", while as many as 64% feel that the country's best years are yet to come.
Perhaps the optimism of SNP supporters is sustained by the prospect that one day Scotland will become independent and their belief - disputed by others of course - that Scotland will be better off as a result.
"English nationalists" tend to be older voters, some of whom perhaps are inclined to think that Britain was better

Convicted child abuser sentenced to life in prison
Ray guilty of multiple sex charges, eligible for parole after 30 years
Christopher Ray
A Gainesville man received two life in prison sentences Friday afternoon in Hall County Superior Court after he was found guilty by a jury in April on all but one of more than 20 counts in a child sexual abuse trial.
By Georgia sentencing rules, Christopher Thomas Ray, 31, will be eligible for parole after 30 years served.
He was convicted on seven counts of aggravated child molestation, six counts of child molestation, one count of possession of Lorazapam (a tranquilizer) with intent to distribute, one count of attempting to violate the Georgia controlled substances act and 10 counts of sexual exploitation of children.
Ray was found not guilty on one countThe present invention relates generally to reduced malto-oligosaccharide species and methods for the preparation thereof.
Oligosaccharides are commonly prepared by the controlled hydrolytic cleavage of starches. In the production of such oligosaccharides, the glycosidic linkages of the starch molecules are partially hydrolyzed to yield at least one oligosaccharide species, and more typically, a mixture of oligosaccharide species. Each oligosaccharide species in the mixture may be characterized by its degree of polymerization (DP), which refers to the number of saccharide monomer units in the molecule. Each oligosaccharide species also may be characterized by its dextrose equivalent (DE), which generally indicates the proportion of aldehyde, hemiacetal or ketone terminal groups in the molecule, and which is a measure of the reducing sugar content of the oligosaccharide, expressed as a percentage of

Act. The Task Force concluded that the statutory "procedure is too cumbersome to provide relief quickly from sudden surges of imports that may cause injury to an American industry." Id. at 12. The Task Force estimated that the entire statutory procedure, from the date a complaint was filed to the publication of a dumping duty, would take approximately thirteen months in addition to the time it takes the complainant industry to prepare the petition. It also noted the limitations imposed by the "specific product orientation of individual investigations and findings." Id. at 13.
The Task Force recommended that:
the Department of the Treasury, in administering the Antidumping Act, set up a system of trigger prices, based on the full costs of production including appropriate capital charges of steel mill productsthe way in which the SSSI would be used to monitor imports and expedite investigations. While the purpose, methods, and limitations of the TPM are described in the introductory comments of the notice, the notice of proposed rulemaking pertained only to the use of the SSSI. Final regulations on the SSSI were promulgated on February 13, 1978, and became effective on February 21, 1978. 43 Fed.Reg. 6065 (1978).
On January 3, 1978, the Treasury announced trigger prices for certain steel mill products, including steel wire rod. These trigger prices were published in the Federal Register on January 9, 1978, and became *289 effective on that date to all goods entering the United States on or after February 21, 1978. 43 Fed.Reg. 1464 (1978).

on the full costs of production including appropriate capital charges of steel mill products by the most efficient foreign steel producers (currently the Japanese steel industry), which would be used as a basis for monitoring imports of steel into the United States and for initiating accelerated antidumping investigations with respect to imports priced below the trigger prices.
The trigger price mechanism is intended to provide the Secretary of the Treasury with a basis for initiating antidumping investigations without any prior industry complaint. Such authority exists under the Antidumping Act although it has not been used in recent years. As such it does not detract from any of the legal rights that foreign producers or the domestic industry presently enjoy under the Act. The trigger price is also a devicefor applying the resources of the Treasury Department to a constant monitoring of imports affecting a particularly sensitive industry viewed as a whole, instead of focusing on the investigation of individual complaints with respect to specified products and then taking expedited action under the law.
Solomon Report, at 13-14. The extent of coverage of the TPM, the methodology to be used in calculating trigger prices, and the Treasury's procedures for implementing the system are discussed in the notice of proposed rulemaking concerning the adoption of the special invoice in the Federal Register, and other press releases issued by the Treasury as well as in the Solomon Report. The Treasury stated that the TPM would cover only "steel mill products" as defined by the American Iron and Steel Institute

(AISI) and therefore would not extend to fabricated articles. However, the Treasury noted that it would consider including additional products should circumstances warrant it. The Treasury indicated that it would also establish trigger prices for the "extras" for those steel mill products for which trigger prices had been set.
The Treasury announced that, in developing trigger prices, it would utilize and adjust information reflecting the cost of production of the particular product supplied by the Japanese steel industry, which is considered to be the most efficient steel industry in the world. The information was to be collected from the six major integrated steel companies as well as several smaller nonintegrated steel makers in Japan.
The Treasury announced that it would administer the TPM by requiring that each importer of steelsix Japanese integrated steel producers supplied by the Japanese Ministry of International Trade.
In setting trigger prices for steel wire rod, the Treasury utilized data from the six largest Japanese integrated steel companies on the model cost per ton of finished steel. The Treasury, after careful review of the available evidence, made adjustments to the Japanese data for yield per ton, labor productivity, exchange rate, and profit rate. *297 The Treasury then multiplied this adjusted figure for the average cost of production of a net ton of finished steel by a coefficient supplied by the Japanese that reflects the portion of the cost of steel wire rod to the average cost of finished steel.

1
This is an appeal, by leave of this court, of "Prudence Bonds Corporation (New Corporation)" and Reconstruction Finance Corporation, from an order in bankruptcy, awarding allowances to four sets of attorneys for services performed in the reorganization of the Debtor, Prudence Bonds Corporation, begun in 1934 under §appeals separately.
Silbiger's Allowance
2
Silbiger was retained in the reorganization by one, Eddy, who held bonds in several "Surplus Series" and even more bonds in several "Deficit Series." Since the collateral securing each "Surplus Series" was no more than enough to pay that series in full, principal and interest, the result of Silbiger's appeal in the "Construction Proceeding" was to take from the "Deficit Series" what the district court had awarded to them and give it and more to the "Surplus Series." Because Eddy held bonds in both "Surplus" and "Deficit Series," his individual interest in the "Construction Proceeding" was conflicting; if the final decision was for the "Surplus Series," he would receive interest in full upon the bonds which he held in those series, but he would lose any

dividend out of the collateral of the "Surplus Series" upon the bonds which he held in the "Deficit Series," although it does not appear in the record whether on the final balance he would have won or lost, if the decision of the district court had been affirmed. Silbiger swore that he explained the situation to Eddy, who told him to take the position which he did upon the appeal. He maintains he did take it at the hearings before the master and the district court; and, although the "New Corporation" denies this, and argues that Silbiger's briefs in the lower court are not plain, the issue is of no importance, and we may assume that from the outset his position was unchanged. We accept the master's findingto surcharge the accounts of the "indenture trustees" of those series. These proceedings had resulted in recoveries; but, since they had all been completed before the "Construction Proceeding" was begun, and since — as Silbiger argues — they were suits separate from the reorganization, the first question is whether his relation, as attorney for Mrs. Born or Mrs Reilly, ended with the entry of the final order in each accounting. We hold that it did not. The accountings were part of the reorganization itself; indeed, it was the foundation of our decision in Central Hanover Bank & Trust Co. v. President and Directors of Manhattan Company2 that they were a step in the collection of the Debtor's assets; and it was only for that reason that they were

explain to him the conflict between his wife's bonds and Eddy's and, even though Silbiger's memory be more reliable — as the master apparently thought — what he told Born was far from definite enough to authorize him to take sides against Mrs. Born. If anything could justify doing so — which we do not suggest — at least a clear explanation was necessary that, if the "Surplus Series" won, she was sure to lose. For the foregoing reasons we hold that Silbiger's retainer by Mrs. Born and Mrs. Reilly still bound him to represent them in the "Construction Proceeding."
5
But his duty was not confined to these two individuals. When he appeared for any of his three clients in any of the accounting proceedings, he appeared on behalfof all the bondholders of the series concerned in that accounting. That follows from his being paid for his services in each such proceeding out of the pockets of all those bondholders; for it is obvious that he could not lawfully take money from those to whom he had rendered no services.3 Therefore, Silbiger became the attorney for all bondholders of those "Deficit Series," in whose accountings he had appeared; and when he argued the side of the "Surplus Series" in the "Construction Proceeding," it conflicted with his duty to all the bondholders of any "Deficit Series." Thus, the conflict in his duty was not limited to Mrs. Reilly and Mrs. Born, but extended to all bondholders of those "Deficit Series" for which he had at any time

breach of trust. Second, the "New Corporation" argues that, when their clients retained the attorneys to intervene in the Fifth Series, they became "representatives" of all the bonds in that series, and that § 249 forbade their trading in the bonds of that series upon pain of losing any right to be reimbursed for their expenses, including the fees of their attorneys. Miller had an understanding with his clients that they were to pay him for his services, so far as he was not fully paid by any allowance; although there is no evidence of such an agreement in the case of Weil, Gotshal and Manges.

the same injury, since the Ohio employer has no right of subrogation.
The same rationale has been applied in a Pennsylvania diversity case in this Circuit, where the Court of Appeals held that the Workmen's Compensation Act provision of New York controlled in a New York employee's action against a Pennsylvania third person tortfeasor, where the New York employee had received workmen's compensation payment from his New York employer. In that action the sad result is that the New York employer enjoyed full reimbursement for the compensation paid without deduction for attorney's fees under the controlling New York statute. Pennsylvania is more protective of attorney's fees in such situations. 77 P.S. § 671.
We conclude that the provisions of the Ohio Workmen's Compensation Act have the most significant relationship toRegular exercise does more than keep your muscles toned and your heart healthy: it's also likely to give you an appetite for fruits and vegetables that further improve your overall wellbeing, new research has found.

Michigan State's players mob senior Derrick Nix after he was honored on Senior Night against Northwestern at the Breslin Center in East Lansing on Sunday, March 10, 2013. Michigan State won the game, 71-61.J. Scott Park | MLive.com
EAST LANSING -- Michigan State wasn't able to defend its
shared Big Ten championship this season after Indiana grabbed the outright
title, with Spartans captain Derrick Nix asking for and receiving the disheartening
news from teammate Russell Byrd during the Northwestern game.
Knowing that Michigan State would fall short not only
affected Nix on the court Sunday, but also into the following day as he took
responsibility for the team finishing tied for second behind Indiana.
"We apologize for the season," Nix said on the Tom Izzo
radio show at Monday night's team banquet. "A lot of people sayI shouldn't say
that, but that was one of our goals."
While coach Tom Izzo made a fiery speech to the Breslin
Center crowd on Sunday expressing his pride in the team's consistent effort in
pursuing the title, Nix after the game used his Senior Day spotlight to place blame on his controversial comments
last month.
"The last time y'all was talking to me, I started saying
some crazy stuff and made some people mad, and that's the reason we didn't win
the Big Ten," Nix said. "They affected us a lot. They did. That's all I'm going
to say. Those comments affected us a lot."
Nix on Feb. 14 while speaking up in support of the draft
stocks of his teammates compared them with players from Indiana and Michigan.
The Spartans would go on to lose their remaining games

against those teams during
a three-game losing streak, with Izzo saying the team had been dealing with
distractions.
In his own emotional, unrehearsed speech to the crowd, Nix said
he spoke from the heart as well while thanking his father figure, Izzo, and
mother, Darlis, for helping him get through four years in the program and on
the verge of graduation from Michigan State despite some missteps.
"Coach, this program has given me way more than I've given
the program," Nix said.
"By far, this has been the best team that I've been on.
These guys are here for me through thick and thin."I am very happy to talk about him in the country where he was born. He was born in 1864 near the city of Kaunas. He then studied at Albertina University in of Königsberg. Before 1945, Königsberg was the capital city of East Prussia, located in the Baltic wedge between Lithuania and Poland. After 1945, Königsberg became a Russian city of Kaliningrad serving as a Soviet naval base.
Albertina University, often called the University of Königsberg, had a very strong academic tradition. Immanuel Kant was a professor at this university. After the total destruction during the second world war, Soviets started reconstructing the university as the University of Kaliningrad. This university is now called Immanuel Kant State University.

In an interview with the Deseret News in 2002, 50 years after KFC opened, Harman credited the positive atmosphere in Utah as part of the restaurant's success.
"What really worked was the delightful labor force in Utah," he said at the time. "People believe in working, and they're friendly — that's the culture that got KFC off the ground and into the whole world."
Harman was born in Granger, which is now part of West Valley City. His mother, Grace, died of pneumonia two days later, leaving his father with nine children. A year later, Pete's father married his brother's widow, Caroline Hemenway Harman, who already had six children.
Four years later, Pete's father died, and "Aunt Carrie" pulled the family together to make aliving on the farm. Years later, Harman donated a building on the BYU campus named in her honor.
Harman met and married his wife, Arline Harman, while working in restaurants in San Francisco. The couple moved to Salt Lake City in 1941 and opened their first restaurant together, the "Do Drop Inn." They met Sanders at a restaurant convention in Chicago in 1951. The rest is history, recounted in the book "Secret Recipe."
Pete and Arline Harman relocated to Los Altos, California, in the 1960s, where they established their business headquarters. Arline Harman died in January 2013 just before her 97th birthday.

Roussel's, supra, guidelines do not require that the work-related factors which contributed to the heart attack be the exclusive cause of the heart attack in order for it to be compensable. While the medical evidence recognized that the stress sustained by the decedent by the loss of close members of his family may have contributed to his myocardial infarction, it clearly establishes that the work-related stress was an important factor in bringing about the fatal heart attack.
The defendant produced no evidence that decedent's work had not placed him under stress for the several days preceding his heart attack.

Las Vegas, Nevada – The Millionaire Chess Open, a groundbreaking chess tournament offering the biggest prize fund in chess history for an Open event, will checkmate the competition October 9th at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas.
The very first event, which boasts a million dollars in prizes, is being billed as a game-changer for a sport that has been struggling to capitalize on its huge fan base of amateur players.
“Chess is ready for this kind of bold undertaking,” says Maurice Ashley, an International Grandmaster and a partner at Millionaire Chess, the company hosting the event. “The game has seen a dramatic uptick in interest recently, and this tournament is designed to ride that wave.

relationship. Approximately a week prior to the murders, Freeman had a conversation with Francis Boozer, a co-worker, and told her that he would rather see Sylvia dead than [for] someone else have her.
"At about 1:00 a.m. Deborah Gordon Hosford returned home. She found the lights of the home turned off and the door unlocked and slightly ajar. She went inside and noticed that the house had been ransacked. She went to her sister's bedroom and found Sylvia, dead, in her bed with multiple stab wounds and clad only in a T-shirt and socks. As she was fleeing the house, she saw her mother, [43-year-old] Mary Gordon, lying in a pool of blood on the floor of her bedroom. Mrs. Gordon was clad only in a shirt, with herbody being nude from the waist down with her legs spread apart.
"Police arrived at the Gordon home and found blood throughout most of the house. Mary Gordon was stabbed 14 times by Freeman; two wounds were fatal. She lived for about five minutes [after being stabbed the first time]. She had also been raped, and the semen deposited in her was consistent as having been left by Freeman. Sylvia Gordon was stabbed 22 times by him, and she remained conscious for eight to ten minutes after the first wound was inflicted. None of the wounds were fatal; Sylvia Gordon bled to death. Examination also revealed that Sylvia Gordon had tears in her vagina. Additionally, police found a shoe print on the shirt of Mary Gordon and a shoe

print on a card found on the floor near the body of Mary Gordon. Police also noted that all [telephone] lines in the house had been cut.
"Freeman had brought a knife with him and used it to brutally kill Sylvia Gordon because she did not want a relationship, as well as [to] kill Mary Gordon when she walked in on the murder. After committing the murders, Freeman stole the Gordons' 1980 Pontiac Sunbird and put his bike that he had ridden to the Gordon home in it and fled the scene. He attempted to establish an alibi by later going to work. The Gordons' car was found in a parking lot near *170 Freeman's apartment. Freeman's fingerprint was found on the car and blood that was consistent withthat of Sylvia Gordon and Mary Gordon was also in the car. Additionally found in the car was a butcher knife that had been cleaned of blood. The butcher knife was examined by an expert in trace evidence with the Department of Forensic Sciences and was determined to be consistent with having caused the wounds to Mary Gordon, to cut the bra and panties of Mary Gordon, and to cut the jeans of Sylvia Gordon.
"When the police arrived at Freeman's apartment, Freeman answered the door, and the officers noted a bandage on Freeman's right hand. When asked how he cut his hand, Freeman lied, claiming that he had cut his hand while repairing a chair. Freeman was arrested at his apartment. The police, upon a consent to search,

March 12 statement to Jett, which was also audiotaped, Freeman denied any knowledge of, or participation in, the murders of Mary Gordon and Sylvia Gordon.
The record further reveals that on March 14, 1988, Detective Gary Graves, who at that time was a detective with the Montgomery Police Department and the case agent in charge of the Gordon case, went to the jail to question Freeman and to photograph bite marks on Freeman's arm. Graves testified that he advised Freeman of his Miranda rights, and that Freeman signed the rights waiver form stating that he understood his rights and that he agreed to waive those rights and talk to the police. Graves testified that he then asked Freeman what happened on the day of the murders. Graves stated thatthe police arrived at his apartment on the morning after the murders, they improperly questioned him before advising him of his Miranda rights. The record reveals that when Freeman opened his apartment door, Officer Jett asked him what had happened to his hand, which was covered with a bandage. Freeman told the officers that he had cut his hand on a chair in the apartment. The police then advised Freeman of his Miranda rights, and searched the apartment pursuant to a consent to search from Freeman's roommate, who was also present at the apartment when the police arrived. Freeman was arrested at that time, but he was not questioned about the murders until he arrived at police headquarters, where he was again advised of his Miranda rights. Freeman

said that when Mary Gordon entered the house, he had no choice but to kill her. He also said that when he saw the victims trying to get to the telephone, he pulled the telephones off the walls to prevent Mary and Sylvia from calling for help. After brutally killing the Gordons, Freeman placed his bicycle in the trunk of the Gordons' car, fled the crime scene in the car, and abandoned the car in a parking lot near his apartment.
"The capital crime of the intentional killing of the victim during a robbery or an attempted robbery is a single offense beginning with the act of robbing or attempting to rob and culminating with the intentional killing of the victim. The offense consists of two elements, robbing anduntil I knew they weren't going anywhere before I got the car keys."
(R. 3223.)
The evidence also showed that the Gordons' house was ransacked. Sylvia was stabbed 22 times; no one single wound was fatal. There was a trail of Sylvia's blood throughout the house, and her blood was smeared in almost every room of the house. She also had suffered defensive wounds on her hands, and the bite marks on Freeman's arm, seen by the police after his arrest, were positively identified as having been made by Sylvia. The medical examiner testified that Sylvia survived for approximately eight minutes while she bled to death.
The medical examiner also testified that Mary Gordon survived for five minutes before she died from the 14 stab wounds inflicted by Freeman. According to

Freeman's conduct, which we have discussed previously in this opinion, clearly was "conscienceless, pitiless, and unnecessarily torturous" to the victims. Both victims were stabbed repeatedly. Testimony at trial indicated that no single one of Sylvia Gordon's 22 stab wounds was fatal, and that she was conscious for at least 8 minutes after the first stab wound before she eventually bled to death. There was a trail of Sylvia's blood throughout the house. Testimony also indicated that Mary Gordon could have been conscious for at least 5 minutes after the first of her 14 stab wounds, and that she was raped by Freeman while she was dying. Clearly, these crimes were perpetrated with a design to inflict a great degree of pain and with utter indifference to the sufferinga borderline personality disorder and was characterized, in part, by an inability to get along with other people. It was Dr. Burkhart's opinion that at the time of the murders Freeman experienced a brief reactive psychosis, during which he lost touch with reality. Dr. Burkhart testified that it was very likely that as a result of a brief reactive psychosis and the stress of being abandoned and rejected by Sylvia, Freeman was unable to conform his conduct to the requirements of the law. On cross-examination, Dr. Burkhart testified that he was not a certified forensics examiner and that he did not hold himself out to be an expert in the field of forensic psychology. Dr. Burkhart also testified that it was possible that Freeman was not experiencing a

psychotic episode when he murdered the Gordons.
The record reveals that there was, however, an abundance of evidence presented by the state to contradict Dr. Burkhart's testimony and to show that at the time of the murders, Freeman's ability to appreciate the criminality of his conduct and to conform his conduct to the requirements of the law was not impaired. Dr. Guy Renfro, the court-appointed psychologist who was ordered to perform, and who did perform, a forensic evaluation of Freeman in July and September 1995, made the following conclusions concerning Freeman's mental state at the time of the murders:
"The information utilized in the current determination of Mr. Freeman's mental state at the time of the alleged offense includes material contained in the police reports of the investigation of thecrime, statements made by Mr. Freeman at the time of his arrest and shortly thereafter, and information conveyed to the examiner during the current evaluation.
"The information examined would indicate that Mr. Freeman was displaying the personality characteristics of a borderline personality disorder at the time of the alleged offense. That is, he had difficulty in maintaining relationships. He was very sensitive to possible feelings of rejection or abandonment. He was likely to manifest intense anger and could engage in aggressive acting out towards others. While these characteristics do appear to have played a role in Mr. Freeman's choices and decisions during this time frame, there are no indications that he did suffer from a mental disorder or illness which would have prevented him from appreciating the consequences of

his behavior. Instead, there are indications both in police reports and in Mr. Freeman's own statements which indicate that he did realize that certain aspects of his behavior were wrong and thus necessitated further action to conceal his identity and to attempt to avoid apprehension and detection. Mr. Freeman stated in his own words that he knew what he was doing was wrong and was attempting to avoid apprehension. Mr. Freeman does claim amnesia for certain aspects of his behavior on the date of the alleged offense. However, this examiner observed inconsistencies in Mr. Freeman's description of amnesia. That is, at times Mr. Freeman would state that he did not recall something and later he would make statements indicating that he did have a memory of this incident.murdered the Gordons.
The findings of the Lunacy Commission, a team of three psychiatrists at Taylor Hardin Secure Medical Facility who evaluated Freeman in December 1988, were similar to the findings of Dr. Renfro. The Lunacy Commission examined Freeman to determine his competency to stand trial and his mental state at the time of the offense. All three doctors on the commission found that there was no evidence that Freeman was suffering from any mental illness at the time of the murders, nor was there any evidence indicating that, at the time of the murders, Freeman was unable to conform his conduct to the requirements of the law. All of the doctors diagnosed Freeman as having either an "antisocial personality disorder" or an adjustment disorder "with depressed mood."

Future Watch: Teemu Hartikainen
Teemu Hartikainen is a well known hockey player in his home town of Kuopio, Finland. He has been playing for his hometown junior team KalPa, since the 2006-07 season.
After being drafted in the sixth round (163rd overall) by the Edmonton Oilers, Hartikainen had a superb season en route to setting a record for goals in the Finnish Elite League by an 18-year-old with 17. He also won the league's Rookie-of-the-Year award scoring 17 goals in 51 games at the young age of 18.
The 6’1 200-pound Finn opened the eyes of many at the U20 World Junior tournament where he led the Finnish team in points with nine in six games and ended up tied for eighth in points.
"It was a very good season," saidgot good hands, goes to the net and is very strong."
"Talking to Jari Kurri, he's one of the players they had on their radar to bring to the World Championships," Prendergast continued. "If some NHL players declined, he was going to get that opportunity."
Hartikainen will play this season in the Finnish league with another opportunity to learn alongside NHL veteran Sami Kapanen. His goal is to come over to North American for next season.
“It's my dream to play there," he said. “I must improve my skating and my hands. I need a lot of speed if I want play in the NHL in the future.”

The old Facebook system
Facebook has two main types of photo storage: profile photo s and photo libraries. Members upload photo s to Facebook and treat the transaction as digital archive with very few deletions and intermittent reads. Profile photo s are a per-member representation stored in multiple viewing sizes (150 px , 75 px , etc). The past Facebook system relied heavily on CDN s from Akamai and Limelight to protect its origin servers from a barrage of expensive requests and improve latency.
Facebook profile photo access is accelerated by Cachr, an image server powered by evhttp with a memcached backing store. Cachr protects the file system from new requests for heavily-accessed files.

In August 1980 Reinhold Messner stood on the summit of Mt Everest for the second time. He was the first person to climb the mountain alone, and without the use of supplementary oxygen. Messner
wrote a book of his experiences on Everest titled ‘The Crystal Horizon’, which was a term that defined the outermost limits of his physical and mental state.
Messner has a strong affinity and respect for the early pioneers of Alpine climbing: George Mallory, Maurice Wilson and F.S. Smythe, among others. These climbers basically did not use
supplementary oxygen, and approached the mountains in a purist, Alpinist style, that is characterized by light, fast and minimal ascents.

Finally, Trooper Krzysiak interviewed a witness who was not involved in the collision, who told
him essentially the “same thing.”

Hospital. Trooper Krzysiak later spoke with defendant in a hospital room, and at some point, he
placed defendant under arrest.

Although the national press spun the contest as a referendum on Obamacare, another powder-keg issue lurked behind the headlines: Martha Coakley's prominent role in prosecuting a child abuse case and her contended culpability of the "primary male offender."
It was back in 1984 when Violet Amirault, son Gerald, and daughter Cheryl, operators of the Fells Acre Day School in Malden, found themselves accused of child molestation. The charges were lurid as they were absurd: plunging a butcher knife into a 4-year-old boy's rectum (which miraculously left no mark of injury) and tying a naked child to a tree in front of the

to admit they might have sent innocent people to jail for crimes that never occurred."
Enter Martha Coakley, who took over as the local district attorney in 1999. By that time, public opinion was running sharply in favor of the defendants. (Violet had recently died of cancer, left penniless and broken by the accusations.)
Coakley was willing to allow Cheryl to go free. But as far as Gerald, that was a different matter. After all, he was a man, the "primary male offender," as Coakley put it. (She never explained how it is possible to have a "primary offender" for a crime that never took place.)
So when the Massachusetts Governor's Board of Pardons voted 5-0 to release Gerald Amirault in 2000, prosecutor Martha Coakley channeled her inner community organizer andmedia maven. She unearthed sympathetic parents to lobby the Massachusetts governor to overturn the Board's recommendation. Then she organized media events where persons spoke movingly of their fear of Gerald's planned release.
These maneuvers kept Gerald behind bars for two more years. Even afterwards, he was forced to wear an electronic tracking device, to report every time he left his house, to obey a curfew, and to avoid certain parts of town. This precluded him from finding regular employment.
This legal travesty did not attract national attention until last Fall. At that point, Coakley held a nearly insurmountable 30-point lead over her Republican challenger.
Then Ann Coulter devoted her December 9 column to the case, calling it the "second-most notorious witch trial in Massachusetts history" and charging Coakley had "kept a

Nitrogen and phosphorus budget in rewetted fens.
A former dewatered fen was flooded for a multi-purpose landuse system including cattail production, fen protection, and water purification. These research plants with an area of 6 ha consist of three constructed surface-flow wetlands. The inflowing water is polluted by non-point sources due to intensive agriculture. The focus of this paper is the estimation of the potential of rewetted fens to reduce phosphorus and nitrogen. The dominating forms of nitrogen in the inflow are organic nitrogen and nitrate. The reduction rate is higher for nitrate than for organic nitrogen, although the nitrate reductions occur only during the summer season. If no nitrate is available for denitrification, there is a release of ammonia from the peat into the water. The main form ofAden between the Horn of Africa and southern Arabia. The main island of Soqotra lies not far from the proposed southern migration route of anatomically modern humans out of Africa 60,000 years ago (kya), suggesting the island may harbor traces of that first dispersal. Nothing is known about the timing and origin of the first Soqotri settlers. The oldest historical visitors to the island in the 15th century reported only the presence of an ancient population. We collected samples throughout the island and analyzed mitochondrial DNA and Y-chromosomal variation. We found little African influence among the indigenous people of the island. Although the island population likely experienced founder effects, links to the Arabian Peninsula or southwestern Asia can still be found. In comparison with datasets from neighboring regions,

The husband stated that the only reason he had married the wife was to allow her to obtain medical-insurance coverage through his employer's plan. The wife testified that she was taking numerous *1033 medications to control the seizures, including levetiracetam (Keppra), phenytoin (Dilantin), quetiapine (Seroquel), and clonazepam (Klonopin). In addition, the wife stated that she had been involved in a motor-vehicle accident in July 2007 that had totaled her automobile and that she had not been able to drive since that time.
The wife testified, and the husband agreed, that the husband's mother, whosuffered from polio, had lived with the parties; until the husband's mother had died in 2006, the wife had been her mother-in-law's primary caregiver. The wife also stated that, by the time of trial, she had become unable to work and that either a friend or her mother had been driving the wife to the pharmacy, to medical appointments, and to other appointments. The wife testified that, because she had been unable to work for some time, she had applied for federal disability benefits; however, she requested that, until such time as she succeeded in obtaining such benefits, the husband be ordered to pay monthly monetary support to her and to help her keep some medical-insurance coverage. She also asked the trial court to order the sale of

the marital residence and to divide the proceeds of the sale; additionally, she requested that the trial court divide the marital personalty between the parties and to award her a working motor vehicle.
The testimony established that the husband had owned a house on Grove Street in Springville that he had sold shortly after the parties had purchased the marital residence on Pearl Lake Road; the husband testified that the $50,000 he had received for selling the Grove Street property had been deposited into an investment account at Compass Bank. The husband testified that he had worked for Motion Industries as a hydraulic service technician for 30 years. He stated that, until the end of 2008, he had made "a very good living" earning $29 per hour and that,until the beginning of 2009, he had worked at least 1000 hours of overtime every year. The husband testified that the company had seriously reduced his work hours so that he was working only 32 hours per week at the time of trial. Additionally, the husband stated that, because of a stock-market decline, the balance in his 401(k) retirement account, to which the husband had contributed for 30 years, was only $139,000.
The husband also testified that although the parties had paid $350,000 for the marital residence, that property was encumbered by two mortgage loans totaling nearly $300,000; in addition, he opined that he could not sell the house in the current market for more than the outstanding loan balances. In addition, the husband stated that he had taken

Kerry to attend Syria talks on May 22, visit Mideast, Africa
May 17, 2013|Reuters
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will attend talks on Syria in Amman on Wednesday, the State Department said, as major powers try to bring the Syrian government and opposition to peace talks in June.
Kerry's visit is part of a one-week trip that begins in Oman on Tuesday and includes talks about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in Jerusalem and Ramallah on Thursday and Friday as well as an African Union summit in Addis Ababa over the weekend.
He then is scheduled to return to Jordan on Sunday to attend the World Economic Forum.
Trying to find a diplomatic solution to end Syria's more than two-year-old civil war will be near the top of his agenda. TheUnited States and Russia on May 7 said they would try to bring both sides to the conflict to conference - possibly in Geneva in June - to select a transitional government.
However, it is still unclear whether the government and the opposition will attend such a meeting, let alone how they will bridge the opposition's demand that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad leave power.
Kerry is also trying to find a way to revive peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians, which broke down in 2010 in a dispute over Israel's construction of Jewish settlements on West Bank land that the Palestinians want for a state.

The Richie case, by its terms, overruled years of precedents from the

The Military Times is running a three part series on the state of our military. They've titled it "America's Military: A Force Adrift" and if the first part of the series is any indication, it will prove to be a shocker.
According to the Military Times survey, active-duty troops reported a stunning drop in how they rated their overall quality of life: Just 56 percent call it good or excellent, down from 91 percent in 2009. The survey, conducted in July and August, found that 73 percent of troops would recommend a military career to others, down from 85 percent in 2009. And troops reported a significant decline in their desire to re-enlist, with 63 percent citing an intention to do so, compared with 72 percent a few yearsago. Army Spc. David Potocnik is one of the troops who has seen morale in his unit take a hit, though he can't really put a finger on why. A Black Hawk mechanic with 2nd Battalion, 4th Aviation Regiment, 4th Combat Aviation Brigade, at Fort Carson, Colorado, Potocnik said stress levels in his unit seem to be on the rise, despite a softening deployment tempo. Fellow soldiers, he said, struggle to connect what feel like excessive training and additional duties in garrison with operational readiness and the overall mission. "There are people who are really motivated, really high-speed ... but they don't seem to be a majority," he said. "You'd think garrison would be more relaxed, but it's frantic — for no reason." Troops said more stress is

race in Japan.
Today’s Dame of the Day is Michi Weglyn (November 29, 1926–April 25, 1999). Growing up in the western United States during the World War II, Weglyn and her family experienced the pain of Japanese internment camps firsthand. When she was released, she moved to the East Coast for college and later became the most prominent Japanese-American in theatrical costume design. Yet the wounds of internment still ached, and in 1976, Weglyn published Years of Infamy: The Untold Story of America’s Concentration Camps. The book chronicled the government’s abuse of the Japanese-Americans and laid the groundwork for a later reparations movement.
Today’s Dame of the Day is Geena Rocero (1984-). Rocero grew up in the Philippines but immigrated to San Francisco with her family when she was 15.After a fashion photographer discovered her in New York City, she began booking international swimsuit shoots. In 2014, Rocero started Gender Proud, a non-profit advocating for transgender rights. In 2014, she and 13 other trans women posed for the fifth anniversary cover of C☆NDY Magazine.
Today’s Dame of the Day is Andreja Pejić (August 28, 1991-). During the Bosnian War, Pejić and her family relocated from their home in Tulza to Belgrade, Serbia; they later immigrated to Australia. A modeling agent scouted Pejić when she was 17 and, in 2015, she became the first openly trans woman to be profiled by Vogue. In addition to her modeling career, Pejić seeks to make a documentary about her experience as a trans woman in the modeling world.

empower women in their community. As a child, Ghobadian learned the power of a second chance when, at age 15, she and her family fled Iran after the fall of the shah. She watched her father lose confidence in himself as employers snubbed him.
Today, Ghobadian and Cahan channel that empathy into creating opportunities to women looking for a second chance. The company gets its name from the road that leads to Central California Women’s Facility, California’s largest all-women prison. Ultimately, Road Twenty-Two hopes to help women transition from the prison system to sustainable full-time employment and safe housing. The company is not only transparent about its products (all items are sourced and made in the USA), but it also encourages employees to share their stories. Kimberly, pictured above,lost her son to an act of gun violence and turned to selling drugs as a way to make ends meet. Eventually, she was arrested and incarcerated. But when she was released, Kimberly began working with Road Twenty-Two. Today, she has a steady job and a place of her own.
Kerrigan’s path to Road Twenty-Two was also paved with hardship. As a teen with little supervision, Kerrigan delved into drugs and alcohol and, at age 15, ended up on the streets. But during this dark period, she embraced her love of graffiti and visual arts. Today, she works as an in-house designer for the company; the logos on the tee shirts are her own designs.
In addition to ready-to-wear jewelry and tee shirts, the company also worked on commission to

African American dressmakers in her final thesis. Her research led her to open the Harlem Institute of Fashion and the Black Fashion Museum. These institutions preserved and honored the contributions of black Americans to modern fashion.
With a background in diplomacy, Citizen’s Mark CEO Cynthia Salim understands the importance of women’s professional wear. As a management consultant for the United Nations, Salim found it difficult to find fashion forward and ethically sourced pieces. Instead of lowering her standards, she raised the bar and developed her own line. After establishing its headquarters in WeWork’s Madison Avenue co-working space, the brand is proud to announce its launch.
Salim officially founded Citizen’s Mark in January 2015, but the careful planning, relationship building and execution took over two years. Salim and her team collaboratedline of meticulously structured blazers in four distinct colors. Salim and her team love meeting their customers, so they’ve organized a party at Impact Hub New York. Space is still available but going fast, so RSVP today and get in on the ground floor.
Today’s Dame of the Day is Viktoria Modesta (February 25, 1987-). Modesta began modeling at age 15, but a chronic issue with her left leg kept giving her problems. In 2007, she underwent surgery to amputate the leg below the knee. While some speculated about the impact surgery would have, the move only made Modesta’s career stronger. After signing to IMG models in 2015, she models primarily in eastern Europe and travels to pursue her second career as a musician.

The prepolymer generally contains a substantial amount of polyetherimide, but also typically contains partially reacted oligomers and polyamide acid intermediate compounds. The prepolymer is subsequently subjected to a second process step wherein the mixture is formed into a thin film under solvent-volatilizing conditions to effect substantially complete solvent and water removal. Further heating of the reaction product, preferably in a second thin film evaporator, substantially completes the polymerization to the desired polyetherimide. Polyetherimide removed from the second thin film evaporator can be continuously extruded, air cooled and pelletized to form a resin product suitable for injection molding and other applications such as sheet production.

PAA network by combining the volume conservation equations of the two continua.
The boundary conditions needed to solve the equations of motion are found from the following considerations. In the microfluidic setup, polymer solution flows continuously around the hydrogels. As the dynamics of the osmotic shock are independent of the flow speed of the solution, we assume a constant concentration of polymers at the boundary of the hydrogel. If the PAA network is permeable for the dissolved polymers the concentration of polymers inside and outside the hydrogel is equal at the boundary. At the center of the gel the concentration of polymers acquires a local minimum because the concentration of dissolved polymers is continuously differentiable at the center. The effective stress is zero at the boundary because we neglectNeglected Diseases initiative (DNDi) — continued searching for a better therapy. In 2007, it discovered fexinidazole, a compound that had been shelved by Paris-based pharmaceutical company Sanofi. With the firm's agreement, the DNDi took the drug through clinical trials. It estimates that developing the therapy through to approval will cost a total of around US$50 million — a fraction of what pharmaceutical companies often spend on new drugs.
Just the beginning
Sanofi will soon submit an application for drug approval through the European Medicines Agency, whose sign-off could pave the way for regulators in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The drug might get a green light by the end of next year, says Nathalie Strub Wourgraft, the DNDi’s medical director. Because it is a simple oral treatment, she suggests

This psychological harm of solitary is exacerbated by the fact that many people in solitary confinement already had prior mental health issues. The New York Correctional Association reports that as of 2004, 23 percent of its prisoners in special housing units (SHU), the administrative term for solitary, were also on the mental health caseload. According to a survey of those in SHUs, nearly a third of prisoners had prior psychiatric hospitalizations, over one-half had suffered from depression, and about 28 percent are diagnosed with either schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. The report also found that the average SHU sentence for mentally ill prisoners is six times longer than that of other prisoners. In the 1995 case Madrid v. Gomez, Federal District Court Judge Thelton Henderson compared placingthe mentally ill in such isolation to “putting an asthmatic in a place with little air to breathe.”
With such mental health problems, suicide is a growing concern for solitary confinement prisoners. Dr. Raymond Patterson, who was appointed by California to find ways to lower prison suicide, found that inmates in California’s solitary units were 33 times more likely to commit suicide than were other inmates. Furthermore, a study in the American Journal of Public Health found that in 2004, 73 percent of all suicides in California prisons occurred in isolation units, although these units accounted for only 10 percent of the state’s prison population. A study in New York showed similar results: per capita, five times as many suicides occurred in solitary confinement as compared to the general

Press Release |
The Orioles will host "Go Green" Day, presented by Waste Pro, for their St. Patrick's Day game this Sunday, March 17 at 1:05 p.m. against the Minnesota Twins. The Orioles will wear green cartoon bird caps for the game, after which they will be autographed and auctioned online at www.orioles.com/spring, with proceeds to benefit the Mote Marine Laboratory Animal Hospitals. The Sarasota-based hospitals treat animals that have been harmed due to damage to the environment. The Mote Marine Laboratory Animal Hospitals will also be featured at the OriolesREACH community booth on the main concourse during the game to educate fans about their dolphin, whale and sea turtle hospitals.
The Orioles will also wear the green cartoon bird capsFiona Campbell (Cyd Charisse) in Brigadoon (1954), costumes by Irene Sharaff.

The dress, dancing, Gene Kelly, and Scotland as the setting made my love for the film a given.
This luscious organza or chiffon confection with sheer jacket was designed by the same woman who would create Kelly's royal wedding gown that same year. I love the garden party nature of this dress, its delicate embroidery, the airy full sleeves, and the short gloves.

Background {#Sec1}
==========
On November 30th 2018, the United States, Canada, and Mexico signed their 'NAFTA 2.0' agreement, generally referred to as the USMCA or, in Canada, the CUSMA and, in Mexico, the T-MEC (each country is entitled to position itself first when referencing the agreement). Negotiation of the agreement was strained and took place in the context of the US Trump Administration's imposition of steel and aluminum tariffs affecting both Canadian and Mexican manufacturing. In doing so, the US invoked a 'national security' exemption under World Trade Organization (WTO) rules, subsequently challenged under WTO dispute settlement rules, but likely years away from resolution. Trade war pressures emanating from the Trump Administration are widely seen as leading to a 'NAFTA 2.0' that is largely beneficial to US corporate and politicalinterests, although both Canada and Mexico were able to protect some of their own interests.
The three countries have deeply integrated economies: Canada and Mexico are the top two trading partners of the US, while Canada and Mexico rank third with each other. The total value of trade in goods and services between the three countries in 2017 was USD 1.3 trillion, USD 673 billion in US/Canada trade, USD 616 billion in US/Mexico trade \[[@CR1]\], and USD 33 billon in Canada/Mexico trade \[[@CR2]\]. Economic reliance on exports to the US, however, is greater for both Canada and Mexico than the reverse, given the much larger size of the American domestic economy. All three countries have made positive claims about the new agreement, emphasizing its economic benefits to their own

A US corporation sued a provincial government after an environmental impact assessment rules against its massive quarry and marine shipping terminal, in part because it was contrary to community values. Despite the investor winning the suit, the panel, noting the quarry was unlikely ever to go ahead, denied the US\$477 million investor claim for 50 years of lost profit and awarded only US\$17 million for lost opportunity costs \[[@CR38]\].
As with other new FTAs, such as the CPTPP, the USMCA has been promoted for the positive impact it will have on economic growth and employment creation. But there is also the question of who benefits from such an agreement. To date there have been two econometric studies attempting to estimate economic and employment gains arising from the USMCA, both focusingon the US. In April 2019 the US International Trade Commission (USITC) released a lengthy study in which it forecast gains of US\$68.2 billion and 176,000 new jobs \[[@CR42]\]. However, these simulated gains rest on several assumptions, including only slight restrictions on the ability of dislocated workers to move to other employment, and an attempt to model "reduced policy uncertainty", a novel approach not embraced by many other economists. Remove the "reduced policy uncertainty" assumption and the US economy declines slightly, losing US\$22.6 billion in value and almost 60,000 jobs. The second study, published one month earlier by the IMF and using similar econometric modelling to the USITC report but without the "reduced policy uncertainty" assumption, concluded that, at most and across all three countries, the USMCA would

At that point, Brady was on pace to throw 676 passes. In fact, he ended up throwing 624, the third-highest single-season total of his career.
Brady’s 2015 season became the 49th in NFL history with 600 or more pass attempts.The only other QBs to attempt 600 or more passes this season were Philip Rivers (661), Drew Brees (627), Eli Manning (618), Matt Ryan (614) and Blake Bortles (606). The combined record of those quarterbacks’ teams was 30-50.
Of the 49 quarterbacks with 600 or more pass attempts, exactly zero have won Super Bowls. In fact, only four QBs have made the Super Bowl. The 600-plus passers own an 18-21 postseason record, and 27 of

Frank Lampard's Chelsea side beat Brighton 2-0 on Saturday
Chelsea's meeting with Brighton was less than a minute old when the first chorus of 'Super Frankie Lampard' sounded around Stamford Bridge. It started in the Matthew Harding Stand and carried over into the East Stand. By the final whistle, all four sides of the stadium were joining in.
The 2-0 victory was only their third of the season and their first at home. They sit 10 points behind leaders Liverpool and will drop out of the top four if Arsenal avoid defeat against Manchester United on Monday. For these Chelsea fans, though, the legend in the dugout and the young, vibrant team on the pitch are providing more than enough encouragement.
The mood has changed dramatically from last season, when MaurizioIt is partly borne out of necessity, but this is no vanity project. The win over Brighton provided more evidence that they are there because they are good enough.
Tammy Abraham should have added to his tally of seven Premier League goals, but he was a handful for Brighton all afternoon, his understanding with former academy team-mate Mason Mount plain to see in some of their combination play. Neither of them scored, but it was Mount who won the penalty for the crucial opener. The assist for the second, meanwhile, came from the returning Callum Hudson-Odoi, who was thrown on ahead of the £58m Christian Pulisic.

League goals this season - with the exception of N'Golo Kante's strike against Liverpool, set up by Cesar Azpilicueta - have either been scored or assisted by academy graduates. It's still only September but it's already more than in the whole of last season.
The profile of the team has changed dramatically. In each of the last five seasons, Chelsea's starting line-up had an average age of over 27. This season, their average of 25 years and 176 days makes them the fourth-youngest side in the Premier League.
The young players have been emboldened by the trust of their manager and there is a youthful energy to Chelsea's attacking play that wasn't there before. They are fun to watch but they are effective too. On Saturday, they peppered Mat Ryan'sgraduates or former academy coaches themselves.
Lampard commented on how Chelsea's youngsters have been helped by the senior players in the squad on Saturday, but their existing bonds with the coaching staff have been just as important. Take how Hudson-Odoi, after setting up the second goal, could be seen sprinting over to Chelsea's technical area to receive tactical advice from Morris, his former coach with the U18s and a man who knows his game inside out.
What's perhaps most encouraging about their latest performance, though, is that it brought the first clean sheet of the season. And what's more, it was achieved with a pair of academy graduates with a combined age of only 44 in the heart of the defence. Andreas Christensen was impressive and so too was Fikayo

Tomori.
Fikayo Tomori in action against Brighton's Neal Maupay
Indeed, it was largely thanks to Tomori's speed, awareness and anticipation that Brighton did not create more openings. Time and again, he could be seen shuttling across into the full-back positions to snuff out danger. This Chelsea team is full of speedy attackers, but according to Premier League tracking data it was Tomori who registered the highest speed on the pitch against Brighton. He even made the most sprints.
Like the rest of Chelsea's academy graduates, he is growing by the game. Indeed, it was notable how assured he was in possession against Brighton. No player had more touches and his passing accuracy rate topped 90 per cent. At one point in the first half, he produced a through ball for MountGLENDALE, ARIZONA - Arizona Coyotes President of Hockey Operations and General Manager John Chayka announced today that center Christian Dvorak will be out of the lineup indefinitely after undergoing successful surgery today in Phoenix to repair a torn pectoral muscle.
Dvorak suffered the injury last week in Glendale during a rehab skate for an unrelated injury.
"Christian was making good progress when he injured his pectoral muscle during practice," said Chayka. "It's unfortunate and unlucky, but the surgery went well today and we expect him to make a full recovery."

He said that he was going to address and explain to the Qataris all the points led to the current diplomatic crisis, hoping that Doha would address these issues.
He highlighted that Saudi Arabia's hosting of the historic Arab Islamic American Summit brought together the US and a number of Muslim and Arab countries with the aim of better dialogue between Arab and Islamic countries and their counterparts in the West.
The GCC countries have partnered with the US in the fight against the financing of terrorism, a move that is of great importance in the efforts to drain the sources of funding of terrorist organisations and extremist groups all, Al-Jubeir added.
The minister also referred to the situation in Yemen, where expressed the Kingdom's concern on the siegeimposed by Houthi groups in some areas, causing famine and hindering the arrival of medical and food aid, the report said.
He pointed out that the coalition forces are working to lift the siege and reach the needy as soon as possible.
According to Al-Jubeir, the Saudi government has allocated $800 million to address the crisis through the King Salman Centre for Relief and Humanitarian Aid.
He explained that the Kingdom hosted a reconstruction conference in Yemen in cooperation with the World Bank and allocated over $10 billion for these efforts.
Al-Jubeir said that the end of the Syrian crisis would be attained via a political solution in accordance with the First Geneva Declaration and the UNSC Resolution No. 2254.

She felt dirty and frustrated. Her super stud was a dud. In disgust, she threw back the sheet and made a dash for a hot shower where one potential evening of good sex slid down the drain.
Did the coarseness of the second version destroy the sensuousness you felt from the first?
While I realize both versions will appeal to different audiences and that both versions have their places in appropriate plots, it’s still better to leave something to the imagination even if you have your character purging her disappointment in the shower.

RIO DE JANEIRO — Russian swimmer Yulia Efimova, who became the villain of the Rio Olympics swimming competition, took a parting shot at fierce rival Lilly King on Saturday night, insisting the American 19-year-old was immature and had turned the event into “a war.”
As the swimming schedule came to a close, Efimova told USA TODAY Sports how the past nine days have been a personal “nightmare” as the bad blood between the American and Russian camps escalated.

many things in the press conference, but nothing at all to me.”
Efimova has lived and trained in Southern California for the past five years, but the reaction she received from the American swimming public has caused her to reconsider. On several occasions during the schedule, she was booed as she entered the pool deck.
The silver medalist in the 100 breaststroke, where she was defeated by King, Efimova claimed that singling out Russia for criticism over doping was unfair, despite the extraordinary extent of the Russian doping system that threatened the very integrity of the Games.
“Why are they discussing only Russians, not another country?” she said. “I mean, it is not only Russia.

Why English is fundamental in an increasingly interconnected world.
In the last few years, the advances in technological progress have been amazing. Given the importance of English as the main means of communication in our increasingly interconnected world, it is a pity that schools, and to a lesser degree universities, do not put more emphasis on the acquisition of listening and speaking skills since, when it comes to speaking English, Italian students do not fare brilliantly compared to those in the rest of Europe. Of the 4 medical schools viewed in Italy, Parma gives the least importance to learning Medical English. When comparing universities in Europe, the French come out on top, putting a lot of emphasis on learning Medical English.About Pallakadiam

The matter was specifically assigned for jury selection to be held on Monday, August 30, 1999.
On August 25, 1999, Tyler moved to continue the trial. On August 26, 1999, Tyler's motion was denied and he was directed to appear with his client for jury selection on the following Monday. Tyler and his client both failed to appear for jury selection on August 30, 1999. During proceedings held

and Tyler's failure to pay the sanction was intentional, knowing conduct. The Court then found Tyler guilty of criminal contempt and imposed an additional fine of four hundred and thirty dollars and sentenced him to forty-eight hours in jail.
Tyler appealed his criminal conviction, which was affirmed by the Supreme Judicial Court sitting as the Law Court in a Memorandum of Decision issued October 17, 2000. Tyler served his sentence and paid the fine assessed against him for his criminal contempt.
Subsequent to the Law Court's decision, a grievance complaint was filed against Tyler regarding his disrespectful and contemptuous conduct toward the Court. That complaint resulted in the present Information filed against Tyler. It was only after the Information was filed that Tyler paid the four hundred and thirty dollarshe was ordered to pay to reimburse Washington County.
In the present proceedings, Tyler acknowledged that his refusal to pay the imposed sanction resulted from his anger with the Court and asserted that he misunderstood that the fine imposed upon him on March 2, 2000, was in addition to the prior sanction imposed upon him in September 1999.
This Court concludes that Tyler's actions as recounted herein are actions unworthy of an attorney. He was directed to appear for jury selection; he failed to do so. The Court ordered him to reimburse Washington County its costs in assembling persons to serve on a jury; he failed to do so. Angered by the Court's action, Tyler opted to display abstinent behavior rather than to request reconsideration or to appeal from the

In October 1994, Tyler was suspended from the practice of law for: (1) the chronic neglect of matters undertaken by him, causing injury to his clients, and (2) the failure to cooperate with the Board's investigation of a disciplinary process. In April 1995, Tyler was found in contempt of the Court's October 1994 Order for his failure to comply with the requirements of M. Bar R. 7.3(i). In March 1996, he was again found in contempt for his failure to provide written notice to all of his clients, the opposing attorneys, the courts and the agencies of his suspension.

Directed by Gary Hustwit, and released in 2007, Helvetica is a feature-length independent film about typography, graphic design and global visual culture. It looks at the proliferation of one typeface, the legendary Helvetica, as part of a bigger picture as to how type affects our culture. It also delves into the history of the sans serif typeface, which was developed in 1957 by Swiss graphic designer Max Miedinger. #helvetica #font #typography #designThe head of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, Kenneth Tomlinson, came under fire from Sen.

Here are some headlines about the Schiavo case that appeared on newspaper Web sites around the world:
U.S. Rep. C.W. Bill Young was in the hospital on Monday, unable to attend the House's extraordinary early morning vote to try to keep Terri Schiavo alive.
A longtime congressman, Young, 74, entered the Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., March 15 for a urinary tract infection. He was later released, but returned after developing a high fever and other complications.
Young, an Indian Shores Republican, who underwent quadruple bypass surgery in 1996, said doctors will conduct a test on his heart today to see if he sustained any damage. He expects to leave the hospital as early as today.
Young supported the bill that sent the Schiavo case tocalled STARRY EYED this fall. The book is a collection of real-life performers writing about their high school experiences in theater, dance, choir, and other performing arts, mixed with short stories written by YA authors like Kiersten White and Claudia Grey (and myself, of course). I had such a blast writing my story, "Stage Kiss," which is about a quiet 16-year-old soccer player who tries out for the school play in hopes of getting her first kiss from the boy who's always cast as the male lead. He's hot. She wants to kiss him. She gets into theater for all the wrong reasons, and it all goes wonderfully awry.

Unearthly (Unearthly #1)
Published January 4th 2011
In the beginning, there's a boy standing in the trees . . . .
Clara Gardner has recently learned that she's part angel. Having angel blood run through her veins not only makes her smarter, stronger, and faster than humans (a word, she realizes, that no longer applies to her), but it means she has a purpose, something she was put on this earth to do. Figuring out what that is, though, isn't easy.
Her visions of a raging forest fire and an alluring stranger lead her to a new school in a new town. When she meets Christian, who turns out to be theboy of her dreams (literally), everything seems to fall into place and out of place at the same time. Because there's another guy, Tucker, who appeals to Clara's less angelic side.
As Clara tries to find her way in a world she no longer understands, she encounters unseen dangers and choices she never thought she'd have to make between honesty and deceit, love and duty, good and evil. When the fire from her vision finally ignites, will Clara be ready to face her destiny?
Unearthly is a moving tale of love and fate, and the struggle between following the rules and following your heart.

make that day. And in the aftermath, she discovered that nothing about being part angel is as straightforward as she thought.
Now, torn between her love for Tucker and her complicated feelings about the roles she and Christian seem destined to play in a world that is both dangerous and beautiful, Clara struggles with a shocking revelation: Someone she loves will die in a matter of months. With her future uncertain, the only thing Clara knows for sure is that the fire was just the beginning.

it comes as a surprise is that Sinestro is the book's focal point
What happens?
Sinestro is reinstated in the Green Lantern Corps after being selected by a power ring. The Guardians offer him a chance at redemption for the years of havoc he's caused, but the character's motives are unclear at this stage.
Back on Earth, Hal Jordan is having a tough time. He's unemployed, on the brink of eviction, and his relationship with Carol Ferris is on the rocks. He's even thrown in jail very briefly following a genuinely funny scene in which he assaults an actor during a movie shoot, mistaking it for an act of domestic violence.
Sinestro is confronted by a former ally from the Yellow Lanterns, who brands him a traitor. He responds by denying theallegation and killing his accuser, adding further ambiguity to his exact role in the overarching story. The comic ended with him visiting Jordan on Earth with interesting proposition.
What's the verdict?Green Lantern #1 is everything a relaunch title should be. Long-time readers will enjoy its dedication to continuity, while newcomers are given everything they need to know in bite-sized chunks.
Hal Jordan is presented as a man who has fallen from grace, and Sinestro a cold-hearted being with a shot at redemption. Doug Mahnke's artwork captures the stand-out qualities of both character, often through subtle details applied to facial features.
Dialogue is a little exposition-heavy, but Geoff Johns's versatility as a writer is on show throughout. DC's chief creative officer is as comfortable playing for laughs with the down-on-his-luck Jordan, as

It’s Never too Late to Pursue your Dreams
Senior Ashley White was passionate about the theater. But she also loved teaching. After earning a BA in English and MA in Education, she taught high school English and theater. Three years into her career, she still felt the tug of the professional theater industry. So she made a brave decision to follow her lifelong dream. This May, she will graduate from Jessup with a BA in Theater. Ashley was recently accepted into the University of Alabama’s MFA Directing program, a program that has an acceptance rate of one per year! Ashley is thrilled to use the skills and education she gained at Jessup as she continues following her theater dreams to the UniversityRights Defender, Head of Congo’s ‘Voice for the Voiceless,’ Silenced
Floribert Chebeya knew what he was up against. Since the late 1980s he had endured numerous detentions and physical harassment from Congolese security services; he had canceled planned demonstrations out of fear for the safety of those who followed his lead, and defied threats against his own life when the stakes of failing to advocate seemed too high. For years, Amnesty International followed Chebeya’s unfazed approach to promoting human rights in Congo, and when he was found dead on Wednesday, the organization lamented the “great loss for the human rights community.”
Chebeya was the president of one of Congo’s leading human rights organizations, Voice for the Voiceless (known by its French acronym VSV), and the executive secretary for a national

network of human rights groups known as RENADHOC. He founded VSV in 1988 and within a few years rose to prominence, which, given his line of work, meant that he became a target for the Congolese government; a search through Amnesty’s archive of “urgent actions” turns up a slew of appeals on behalf of Chebeya dating back to the mid-1990s.
Chebeya was a strident advocate for people unlawfully detained, harassed, and intimidated by Congo’s notoriously abusive and opportunistic security forces. He documented abuses and filed complaints on behalf of marginalized populations in conflict-ridden parts of the country. He frequently spoke out about the unsolved mystery surrounding the 2001 assassination of Congo’s previous president, Laurent Kabila. Dozens of Kabila affiliates remain in prison after being found guilty in what wasdeemed an attempted coup, and they were sentenced to death in a sham trial.
The security service known as the Military Detection of Unpatriotic Activities kept close tabs on Chebeya’s activities, often summoning him for interrogations following the release of a VSV report or after a request for information about detainees or other vulnerable people.
More recently, Chebeya’s organization had taken on the issue of sexual violence and advocated for the protection for the survivors and against impunity for perpetrators. In a press release (pdf) dated March 4, 2010, VSV commemorated International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women by calling attention to the prevalence of sexual violence in Congo, and noting that state officials — specifically with agencies such as the national police, army, immigration police, and the

also believed to be of great effect in achieving these objects. [244]
Once upon a time the gods and demons, by their united efforts,
churned the ocean and obtained therefrom fourteen ratnas or precious
things. [245] These were distributed among them. Lakshmi, the kaustubha
jewel, the Sharnga bow and the conch-shell fell to the share of Vishnu,
and the poison, Halahal visha, was disposed of to Shiva. Only two
things remained, sudha, or nectar, and sura or liquor. To both gods
and demons the nectar was the most important of all the prizes. A hard
contest ensuing between them for the possession of it, the demons,
by force, snatched the bowl of nectar from the gods. In this disaster
to the gods, Vishnu came to their help in the form of Mohini--a most
fascinating woman--and proposedground is first dug over with pikes,
javala (tender wheat plants) and shami leaves are then mixed with
the muddy earth, and small balls of the mixture are made. A pice
and betel-nut are placed in each ball, and they are presented to
the worshipper as a mark of good luck. Travellers carry such balls
with them on their journeys for luck. Kings carry the same to obtain
success on the battle-field. The Pandavas had such balls with them
on the field of Kurukshetra when they obtained a victory over the
Kauravas. [346] The balls are also used as pastana. [347] The javala
in the balls are taken out and allowed to grow in an earthen vessel
filled with clay and manure till they reach a span in height, when
they are taken up and used. [348]

penance lasts for their whole lives.
It is customary, among some sects, not to allow the sathara--i.e.,
the spot lately occupied by a corpse in the house--to be suna or
unoccupied for a single night. Someone must sleep on the spot for
twelve consecutive days from the date of demise. [372]
Pilgrims, [373] after pilgrimage, abandon sensual pleasures, take
their meals only once every day, and sleep on the floor. It is
customary to sleep always on the ground while in holy places. Devotees,
ascetics, sadhus, and their disciples sleep on the ground.
The God Indra has twelve meghas or clouds under his control, and he
directs each of them to pour out their waters wherever he likes. When
in the least irritated in the execution of his orders, Indra's voice
is heard in this world in thunder-claps which riseto a terrible pitch
if the deity becomes downright angry. Thunder is also said to be
the loud laughter of Indra when in a happy mood. [374]
Another belief is that during the rainy season, Indra plays gedi-danda
[375], and the strokes given to the gedi in the course of the game,
produce what we call thunder; [376] or, that the clouds are god's
footballs, and thunder is produced by his foot striking them, while
at play during the rainy season. Some believe thunder to be due
to the loud sounds produced by various musical instruments which are
played upon the occasion of the marriage-ceremony of Indra. [377]
According to others, thunder is produced by the cannon of Indra;
[378] or, as some again say, by the trumpetings of Airavat, the
elephant of Indra [379]; or, we hear thunder when

temple stands near the kund. It is
said that King Rama built this kund while performing a local sacrifice,
and brought water up from the patal (nether regions) by shooting an
arrow into the earth. [464]
Other holy kunds are: the Bhim kund, the Gomukhi-ganga, and the
Kamandalu kund on Mount Girnar near the temple of Bhimnath Mahadeo;
the Radha kund, the Lalita kund, and the Krishna-sarovar in Dwarka;
the Rama-sarovar, the Sita kund and the Devki-unai kund in Ayodhya
(Oudh); [465] and the Suraj kund [466] and the Hanumandhara [467]
kund on Mount Girnar.
Waterfalls are not very familiar to the people of Gujarat. There is
a belief, however, that barren couples obtain issue if they bathe in
a waterfall, and offer a cocoanut. [468]
If a river source issues from an opening, in the shape of a go-mukh
(cow's-mouth), thesacred in a variety of circumstances; thus,
some are valued for possessing medicinal drugs: some are revered as
the birthplaces of the gods, or as the residences of saints: some for
possessing many tirthas (holy spots): some because they were visited
by Rama or the Pandavas: some serve as guardians of the four quarters:
and some contain the sources of holy rivers.
Both the important ranges of the Presidency, the Sahyadri and the
Satpuda, are subjects of veneration in the popular mind. The Himalayas,
the Vindhya Mountains, and the Nilgiris command special respect. Other
sacred mountains are Girnar and Shetrunja in Kathiawar, Mount Abu,
Pavagad near Baroda, Brahmagiri Arasur, Tryambak near Nasik, Koyalo,
Govardhan near Mathura, Revatachal near Dwarka, and Hinglaj in Sind.

be frequented by Joganis
(female harpies) who take the lives of visitors to the hill, and it
is said that none who visits the place is ever known to return. [534]
Persons who visit the temple of Kalikamata on Mount Girnar always
lose one of their party, who falls a victim to the goddess. [535]
The changes in the seasons are attributed by some to Brahma, Vishnu,
and Mahesha (Shiva), the gods of the Hindu Trinity. Brahma sends down
the rains and produces corn, grass, etc., Vishnu protects and nourishes
the harvests in winter, and Shiva causes the heat of the summer. [536]
There is also a belief that these three gods go down in turns to the
patal (nether regions) and stay there for four months. Vishnu descends
on the eleventh day of the bright half of Ashadh,experiments in it afterwards must observe the same precaution. The
night of Kali-chaudas or the 14th day of the dark half of Ashvin,
is considered to be the most favourable time for the sadhan or
accomplishment of this secret art of remaining naked. [589] On this
day, it is the custom of those who exercise the art, to go stripped
to a cemetery in the dead of night, and to cook food in a human skull
as an offering to the spirits residing in the neighbourhood. On the
same night, some sorcerers, after stripping themselves, are said to
ride round the village on some mysterious conveyance. [590]
A practice is noted among low-class people of performing a sadhana
before the goddess Jhampadi for the sake of progeny. The man who
performs the sadhana, has first to go naked to

the object of bringing rain. Similarly the image of
the goddess Harshadh is sometimes bathed when rain is desired. [607]
The bhuva or the bhui, i.e., the male and the female attendants of
the goddess are at the same time given a bath, and an offering of Khir
[608] is made to the goddess.
There are two goals which a pious Hindu tries to attain by leading
a life of purity and virtue, viz., (i) moksha or final emancipation,
merging into the Eternal Spirit, and (ii) swarga (heaven or paradise)
where meritorious persons enjoy pure pleasures unalloyed by earthly
cares. The stars are the spirits of so many righteous persons who are
translated to swarga for their good actions, and are endowed with a
lustre proportionate to their individual merits. But every moment of
enjoyment in swarga diminishes the storeerected by the Bania, and the ladies of the
Jamsaheb's court have supplied silver gates and copper railings to
it. The Jamsaheb also presents kinkhab coverings for the tomb every
year. On the night of the Uras (or the fair held in the Pir's honour)
sandalwood is burnt before the Pir. [682]
Charadwa is well-known for the temple of Rajeshwari Mata. King Prithwi
Raj Chohan suffered from white leprosy and was once going to Dwarka,
with the hope that residence in the holy city would cure him of his
disease. On the way, one of his best bullocks suddenly fell. The
animal was almost given up for dead when a young woman named Rajbai,
daughter of Uda Charan, happened to pass by while carrying water in
earthen pots. Rajbai touched the bullock with one of her toes, and to

some people that the animal to which a
disease is conveyed in the above manner, dies of its effects. [858]
In some places the patient is supposed to be possessed by a goddess
instead of by an evil spirit. A goat, cock or a male buffalo is
offered to the goddess in the same way as to an evil spirit.
In some villages, when there is an outbreak of a serious epidemic,
it is customary to drive a buffalo beyond the village boundary, with
the disease on his back. The back of the buffalo which is chosen for
this purpose is marked with a trident in red lead and covered with a
piece of black cloth, on which are laid a few grains of adad and an
iron nail. Thus decorated, the buffalo is driven beyond the limitsdrums and other weird
instruments whether European or Indian, have the power of scaring
away evil spirits.
An evil spirit called Babaro had entered the person of the uncle
of Maldev the king of Jhalavad much to the king's annoyance. Maldev
offered a stubborn fight to Babaro, who, unable to cope with Maldev,
promised to extend his kingdom over those villages in which he would
hang up bunting in one night. It is said that the present extent
of the Jahlwad territories was due to king Maldev's enterprise in
hanging up bunting over these territories as asked by Babaro. [883]

Dreams occurring in the first quarter of the night are believed to
be fulfilled in a year, those in the second quarter of the night in
six months, those in the third quarter in three months, and those
in the last quarter in one month. A dream seen during an hour and a
half before daybreak bears fruit in ten days, while that seen just
at day-break is realised immediately. [964]
Dreams that occur before midnight are never fulfilled. [965]
If a person has a bad dream, he should go to sleep at once, and not
communicate it to any one. If he has a good dream, he should not sleep
on that night after its occurrence. Early on the following morning
he should communicate it to a8,400,000 species of
living beings. It is in the human life that one can accumulate merit,
and wipe out the influence of past sins.
Those who meet a sudden or violent death, e. g., by being crushed
under a falling house, by drowning in a well, by an accidental fall,
by a snake bite, etc. enter the order of bhuts, pretas, pishachas,
etc., and are said to have gone to durgati or to a bad path. [1030]
But those who die on a field of battle are believed to attain
heaven. [1031]
According to another belief, persons dying a violent death have to
pass through the same fate, that is, die violently, for the next
seven lives. [1032]
Their souls are said to be liable to enter the asurgati or the order
of devils. They are emancipated from this condition by
