Argentina, its history.
Before becoming a modern state, even before colonization led by the Spanish conquest, the Argentine territory was inhabited by nomadic indigenous communities. The arrival of Columbus in 1492 marked the beginning of the Spanish colonization.
The Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata created in 1776 formalized the installation of the colonial government, but the decline of the Spanish empire and its failure in the market competition with Portugal and England marked the dismemberment of the Viceroyalty, leading to the process of national emancipation. The revolution of May 25, 1810 devoted to the colony and testing of the first forms of self-government that took place until 1816.
On July 9, 1816 the Congress of Tucumán proclaimed the independence of the United Provinces of South America and issuedthe Provisional Statute of 1816, the Provisional Regulations of 1817 and the Constitution of the United Provinces of South America in 1819.
While it took the tripartite division of powers, the constitution of 1819 did not establish the form of government and was designed in a way that could adapt to a monarchical system. Several congressmen, tried to negotiate the coronation of a prince in the Rio de la Plata. The constitution was a value in dispute, and was rejected by his centralizing proposal, but had begun the process of transformation and struggle of modern Argentine state.
Every thing here, in El Sur del Sur: Argentina: The country, its culture and its people.
The nineteenth century left an expected economic growth and political stability, creating the modern Argentine state. Waves of

such municipality by Section 47-61 of the Code. The provision of such ordinance is not inconsistent or in conflict with Section 4-204 of the Code. The Charleston ordinance merely regulates the hours during which beer may be sold, dispensed or permitted to be consumed in commercial establishments within the City of Charleston. The ordinance in question is a proper exercise of the police power of the municipality because the purpose thereof is to preserve the peace, order and good government within the city. The ordinance is regulatory and not prohibitory since it appears that all dealers in beer in the City of Charleston are treated alike, under similar circumstances, under the terms of the ordinance. It cannot be said to deprive the appellant of due process or theequal protection of the laws.
*213 The only other question for determination is whether the trial Court erred in finding the appellant guilty of selling or permitting the consumption of beer in his place of business during prohibited hours when the appellant was not present in his place of business at the time the alleged offense was committed.
The record shows that the appellant was the owner and operator of a cafe located on Spring Street in the City of Charleston. Two city policemen testified that at approximately 2:15 A.M., on the morning of October 12, 1962, they visited the cafe of the appellant and observed two men sitting in a booth and they had on the table a quart bottle of beer and both men were drinking beer out

Hurricane
Floyd was one of five major hurricanes that hit in 1999. Although
it had weakened by time it reached the coast, hurricane Floyd was
responsible for the largest peacetime evacuation in the history of
the US.
by Richard J. Pasch
Floyd can be traced back to a tropical wave that emerged from western
Africa on 2 September. This system was not particularly impressive-looking,
in terms of the organization of the convection shown on satellite
images, but there was evidence of curvature in the cloud lines.
Overall the system was broad and disorganized, yet easily recognizable
as a synoptic-scale entity.
The wave proceeded westward across the eastern tropical Atlantic
at about the normal speed of propagation, 6 degrees of longitude
per day, with little apparent change, for several days. A center
of circulation was estimated late on 5 September near 15N 32.5W
but thethough large-scale conditions
appeared conducive for strengthening, there was a lack of a well-defined
inner core. This was evidenced by visible, infrared, and microwave
imagery that showed no tightly curved banding features or a concentration
of deep convection close to the center, a condition that probably
prevented rapid intensification during the early stages of the tropical
cyclone. Floyd slowly strengthened and became a hurricane by 1200
UTC 10 September while centered about 200 n mi east-northeast of
the northern Leeward Islands.

Hurricane Floyd as it heads towards the Carolinas
As Floyd was nearing hurricane status, a mid-tropospheric trough
in the vicinity of 60-65W longitude caused a slowing of the forward
speed, and then a turn toward the northwest. The northwestward motion
continued until the 11th, keeping the hurricane well to the northeast
of the islands of the northeastern Caribbean. On the 11th,

Eleuthera on the morning of the 14th, and after turning
toward the northwest, Floyd struck Abaco island on the afternoon
of the 14th. By the time the hurricane hit Abaco, it had weakened
somewhat from its peak, but Floyd was still a borderline category
three/four hurricane.
As a mid- to upper-tropospheric trough over the eastern United
States eroded the subtropical ridge over the extreme western Atlantic,
Floyd continued to turn gradually to the right. The center of the
hurricane paralleled the central Florida coast, passing about 95
n mi east of Cape Canaveral around 0900 UTC 15 September. By the
afternoon of the 15th, Floyd was abeam of the Florida/Georgia border
and headed northward toward the Carolinas.
Although there was a fluctuation in intensity, related to an eyewall
replacement event discussed in the next section, overall the intensity
of Floyd diminished fromthe 13th to the 15th. Environmental causes
for intensity change are not entirely understood, but two large-scale
factors probably contributed to a gradual decline: the entrainment
of drier air at low levels from the northwest, and increasing south-southwesterly
vertical shear. As Floyd neared the North Carolina coast late on
the 15th, its maximum winds decreased below category three status.
After turning toward the north-northeast with forward speed increasing
to near 15 knots, Hurricane Floyd made landfall near Cape Fear,
North Carolina at 0630 UTC 16 September as a category two hurricane
with estimated maximum winds near 90 knots. Floyd was losing its
eyewall structure as it made landfall. Continuing to accelerate
north-northeastward, Floyd's center passed over extreme eastern
North Carolina on the morning of the 16th and over the greater Norfolk,
Virginia area around 1500 UTC that day. Floyd then weakened

of 13.70 inches
at Brewster. Totals of nearly 11 inches were measured in portions
of New England. Storm surge values as high as 9 to 10 feet were
reported along the North Carolina coast.
A number of tornadoes were sighted in eastern North Carolina. There
was a confirmed tornado in Bertie County and another in Perquimans
County. The latter tornado destroyed two houses and damaged three
or four others. At least ten tornadoes were reported by spotters
in the Newport/Morehead City County Warning area, and these apparently
caused some structural damage. Four tornadoes or funnel clouds were
seen in the Wilmington area, but no damage was apparent.
Casualty and Damage Statistics
There were 57 deaths that were directly attributable to Floyd,
56 in the United States and 1 in Grand Bahama Island. The death
toll by state is as follows: North Carolina35, Pennsylvania 6,
New Jersey 6, Virginia 3, Delaware 2, New York 2, Connecticut 1,
and Vermont 1. Most of these deaths were due to drowning in freshwater
flooding. Floyd was the deadliest hurricane in the United States
since Agnes of 1972.
Dave Gatley/FEMA News Photo
A
bridge in North Carolina has been completely washed away by
flooding
In the United States, the Property Claims Services Division of
the Insurance Services Office reports that insured losses due to
Floyd totaled 1.325 billion dollars. Ordinarily this figure would
be doubled to estimate the total damage. However, in comparison
to most hurricane landfalls, in the case of Floyd there was an inordinately
large amount of freshwater flood damage, which probably alters the
two to one damage ratio. Total damage estimates range from 3 to
over 6 billion dollars.
Forecast and Warning Critique

Two years ago, West Alabama residents woke up to a new reality. The storms that swept through the state created unprecedented damage. Not since the 1974 super outbreak had anything like it occurred.
In Tuscaloosa, the landscape was altered drastically from one side of the city to the other. Parts of the city that had stood with little change for decades were unrecognizable. The pleasant, wooded shores of Forest Lake were stripped of foliage, and the lake resembled a landfill for debris.
Alberta, long known as Alberta City because of its quaint separateness from the rest of the city, was flattened. People driving to that part of the city always got their first glimpse of the area as their cars topped the railroad overpass. The

a divider between the internal spaces of the adjacent two cylinder portions, and a plurality of pistons which shuttle within the correspondent cylinder portions, with the peripheral surface thereof remaining in contact with the internal surfaces of the cylinder portions, to change the internal pressures of the cylinder portions. After being suctioned into the internal spaces of the plurality of cylinder portions, liquid is almost completely discharged through the discharge holes by the pressure generated in the space between the pistons and correspondent sealing members. In other words, according to the present invention, it is possible to prevent leakage and solidification of waste liquid, which lead to suction failure, by reducing the amount of the liquid which remains in the cylinder.
Further, the present invention eliminates the need forof management of Bayer HealthCare AG, where he was responsible for leading the company's healthcare portfolio globally, encompassing pharmaceuticals, consumer care, animal health and medical care businesses.

means of which the pore water pressure meter is pressed into the ground. The opposite end of the steel string is secured to a nipple in the rod. When the diaphragm is pressed inwards by the water pressure, the tension in the string is reduced. Consequently, the string becomes less tightened and as a result hereof its natural frequency, i.e. the frequency with which the string oscillates when set in motion, is reduced. The string is kept oscillating by means of two electro-magnets provided with coils connected to a tone frequency oscillator the frequency of which thus is determined by the natural frequency of the string. The oscillator is usually incorporated in the pore water pressure meter. The meter is lowered together with the rod to the locationin the mass of earth where one intends to measure the pore water pressure. To prevent earth and stones from reaching the diapgragm the latter is protected by a filter allowing passage-through of water only.
The pore water pressure meter is calibrated by allowing a known pressure to act on the diphragm whereafter the string frequency is read. The relationship between frequency and pressure thus is obtained in the form of a curve. When the pressures on both sides of the diaphragm are equal, the string oscillates at a certain frequency, denominated zero pressure frequency. When the pressure acting on the diaphragm increases, the frequency is reduced. The larger the discrepancy between the established frequency and the zero pressure frequency, the larger evidently the pressure acting on the diaphragm.

had not accepted that reality.
The ink was hardly dry on the treaty when the Anglo began to deny the Mexican Americans their rights as citizens. Their lands were taken away; they were stripped of political power; they were isolated from the larger community; their culture was disparaged; their role in history was erased; they were relentlessly attacked physically and demoralized.
Passing decades did not diminished the prejudice. Instead, the feeling that Mexican were an alien presence intensified when irrigated farming, railroad building and mining began to pull large number of workers across the border and the bloodiest civil war in the hemisphere began to expel refugees from Mexico into the United States of North America.
By claiming citizenship for themselves and, by extension, for all Mexican American people, the foundersthe Mexican American would no longer be easy to manipulate.
At the same time, LULAC was confronting the identity crisis of Mexican Americans. Denied the security of belonging that comes from acceptance, they did not consider themselves Americans. In some sections of the Southwest, they still saw themselves as Mexicans, in others , they called themselves Hispanos.
As a people apart, Mexican Americans had institutions modeled upon indigenous culture. Hispanic civic organizations dated back to 1894 when La Alianza Hispano Americana was founded. La Sociedad Progresista Mexicana y Recreativa, La Camara de Comercio Mexicana, and La Sociedad Mutualista Mexicana were organized around 1924. There were also hundreds of Catholic organizations that were founded in the early part of the 20th century. As their Spanish names imply, these organizations linked the

and thieves. This was the excuse used to deny them jobs. In the end, most Mexican American families worked in the fields, farms, and ranches. Most of their children never had an opportunity to attend school. The few that did attend school went to Mexican Schools that had the worse teachers and the buildings that were in deplorable conditions. There were no laws protecting Mexican Americans that were farm workers. Mexican Americans who went on strike were unceremoniously taken across the border without any fear of retribution.
Despite the widespread murder, repression, intimidation, and prejudice, there were areas along the border where Mexican Americans were able to build a strong tradition of self-determination, acquire education, and experience success in business. It was in San Antonio, Brownsville, Corpus Christi, Laredo,El Paso, and similar places that stirrings began to occur early in the 1920s. Almost spontaneously, leaders began talking about the need to organize.
In 1921, Mexican Americans demanded placement on jury rosters by filing several lawsuits. In addition, in this year courageous Mexican Americans started organizing in Texas and demanding that juries reflected the composition of the population.
The Foundation of LULAC
The foundation of LULAC was started by three outstanding organizations of the day. The Knights of America, Council number 4 of the Order of the Sons of America, and the League of Latin American Citizens.
The Knights of America organized in 1921, in San Antonio, Texas, was the oldest of the three and had been founded by Frank Leyton, Melchor Leyton, Pablo Cruz, Abraham Armendariz, Merci Montez, Leo Longoria,

Vicente Rocha and John Solis. The Knights of America had done much for its community, was under the leadership of M. C. Gonzalez.
The Order of the Sons of America, the second oldest had councils in Sommerset, Pearsall, Corpus Christi, and San Antonio, was under the leadership of a gentleman from San Antonio. However, it was council number 4 from Corpus Christi, founded by Louis Wilmot, Joe Stillman, Dave Barrera, Al Cano, and Desi Luna, and led by Ben Garza, that was the main uniting force for a merger.
The League of Latin American Citizens, the youngest and the most progressive, founded by professor Luz Saenz, Pablo Gonzales, Filiberto Galvan, and under the outstanding leadership of Attorney Alonso S. Perales, had councils in Alice, Austin, Brownsville, Encino, Harlingen, La Grulla,Laredo, McAllen, Penitas, and Robstown. This new and young organization had done just as well, and in some instances better, and was growing at a much faster pace than the other two combined. This organization counted among its members such leaders as J. T. Canales and Clemente Idar, a brilliant orator that was a national organizer for the American Federation of Labor.
Council number 4 of The Order of the Sons of America was concerned that to many organizations were been formed and it seemed to them to be a step toward possible division and weakness. Ben Garza and his council called a meeting attended by M. C. Gonzales, Mauro Machado and John Solis of the Knights of American and Alonso S. Perales, Luz Saenz and Felipe Herrera from

as a guest, Council #4 voted to have and to host a uniting convention. The date set was February 17, 1929, at the Obreros Hall, on the corner of Lipan and Carrizo streets in Corpus Christi. Two long years had come and gone since the first merger attempt and now it was about to take place.
The Uniting Convention
February 17, 1929, was cold and rainy as delegates and other guests entered Obreros Hall in Corpus Christi, Texas, to start the meeting. Besides the Corpus Christi Son of the Order of the Sons of America, there delegates from the Knights of America from San Antonio and the League of Latin America Citizens from the Rio Grande Valley. In all, there were 25 delegates and 125 Mexican American observers present. Deliberationswere conducted in both English and Spanish.
The first order of business was to elect a temporary executive committee. Elected to this committee was Ben Garza as chairperson, M. C. Gonzalez as secretary, and J. T. Canales and J. Luz Saenz as members.
It was not a foregone conclusion that history would be made on this day. Not everyone was anxious to create one organization out of the three groups. Problems stemmed from the inherent reasons why more than one organization was established in the first place. Another problem was the name of the proposed new organization. The group from Corpus Christi wanted a short new name but the members of the League of Latin American Citizens were loathe to surrender what they thought was an aptly descriptive title. However,

were encountered throughout the Southwest. New LULAC members were intimidated by the Anglo establishment. They were accused of being subversives, communists, agitators, and rabble rousers. A LULAC member form Houston, that would become the INS Commissioner under the Jimmy Carter Administration, recalls his council being arrested and jailed under the suspicion of being communist activities. Another, incident occurred when a Past National Vice President, also from Houston, who had singlehanded defeated the English Only movement in Texas, was ordered by his supervisor to resign from LULAC or lose his job. This LULAC member filed a lawsuit against this supervisor, against the federal contracting company and the President of the United States and won the case.
Anglo opposition to LULAC organizing efforts continued unchecked for 20 years after the organizationwas founded. Not even service above and beyond the call of duty removed the Anglo's prejudice. A World War II Medal of Honor winner was severely beaten in Richmond, Texas, because he asked for service in a restaurant. Even the Mexican Consul was refused service in one of the fine restaurants in Houston.
Many early members were scared out of the League. Others left because they could not stand the confrontations, the suspicions, and the accusations that they were not loyal Americans.
Its History
Over the last 70 years, LULAC has continued to grow and work hard to bring about many of the positive social, economic and political changes that Hispanic Americans enjoy today. No other Hispanic civil rights organization, with an all volunteer membership base can match LULAC's record of

one pro and one con, raced north by train from Washington, D.C. Their mission: to find the absent Senator Leland Stanford, a California Republican, at his Manhattan mansion and determine where he stood.
Ironically, arguing the pro-filibuster, anti–federal elections bill case to Stanford was none other than Senator William Stewart, the man credited more than 20 years earlier with managing Senate consideration of the 15th Amendment, which guaranteed black men the right to vote. Hailing from a mining state, Stewart had joined a faction of Republicans whose top priority was now silver. Arriving first in New York, Stewart persuaded Stanford to give him his vote. The filibuster was restored, and the bill that might have laid the groundwork for a federal elections system was history.
In 1893, enjoying their firstunified control of national government in decades, Democrats under Grover Cleveland set about repealing Reconstruction-era elections statutes. Even so, there was one great battle left to fight in this early round of voting wars. Alarmed by the resilience of black electoral participation, even in states where it had declined, a hard-line Southern Democratic faction determined to push black voting and office-holding to zero. Poll taxes, literacy tests, and residency requirements were all in place by 1907 and wielded, along with private violence, by white supremacists looking to shut down black suffrage. The disenfranchisers also reduced a lot of voting by poor, white farmers as they turned the South into the lower-turnout region that it still is.

KentJanuary 4, 1979. A detective investigated and recovered articles that had belonged to Diane Marcum which Harston had sold to others in the trailer park. Harston was apprehended in Indianapolis, Indiana, with Diane Marcum's automobile. On the trip back to Kentucky, Harston, after *701 being advised of his constitutional rights, related a story in which he blamed a drug dealer for the killings. He stated that after being threatened he remained in the area for several days and sold the victim's property.
On January 11, 1979, the body of Anthony Marcum was recovered. On that day Harston was questioned and after being informed of his rights confessed to the killings and signed a confession which was read to the jury.
Harston stated that when he returned home on December 28,

1978, after an evening of drinking, he had an argument with Diane Marcum, that he choked her to death and then passed out. He stated that the next morning when he awoke Anthony was crying for his mother. He then proceeded to drown Anthony. Harston then transported the bodies to a remote location, burned them and threw them into a river. He then returned to the trailer and sold all of their property, clothing, furniture, etc.
Among the assertions of error, Harston argues that he was not competent to stand trial. In January 1979, soon after arrest, Harston was committed in order to evaluate his competency to stand trial. He was then evaluated at another psychiatry unit for a period of two months and was evaluated by other psychiatristswas competent to stand trial and that he was not insane at the time of the homicide. We did, however, review all the testimony with regard to Harston's mental condition.
During the course of his testimony, one of the doctors mentioned that psychiatry is an inexact science. After reviewing the medical testimony, we conclude this is an understatement. Two psychiatrists testifying for the prosecution found that Harston was not insane but was faking. The two psychiatrists and the two psychologists who testified for the defense stated that Harston was a schizophrenic, paranoid type, was in their opinion insane at the time of the homicides and had been insane since adolescence. We can imagine that in situations such as presented here the fact finder is in a terrible position. If

CLEVELAND, Ohio - Investigations continue Sunday after three people were killed within 24 hours on the city's East Side.
Two of the homicides are confirmed shooting deaths, while the third body was found burning in a rubbish fire Saturday evening, Cleveland police Sgt. Jennifer Ciaccia said Sunday.
The first homicide took place about 4 a.m. Saturday at Priceless Consignment Boutique, near the intersection of East 141st Street and St. Clair Avenue in Cleveland's South Collinwood neighborhood, Ciaccia said.
Two men - the store's 27-year-old owner and his 55-year-old uncle - were working inside the shop when three men burst through the door and began shooting, Ciaccia said. The incident may have been an attempted robbery, though police do not know if anything was taken from the store.
The 27-year-old man was shotin the face and taken to University Hospitals, where he died. His uncle was taken to Cleveland Clinic after suffering chest pains, Ciaccia said.
The three accused robbers have not been identified, and no arrests have been made.
Later in the day, Cleveland police were called to a rubbish fire on the 9100 block of Laisy Avenue, situated between Union Avenue and Kinsman Road in the city's Kinsman neighborhood, Ciaccia said. While putting out the fire around 7 p.m., Cleveland fire crews discovered a body in the fire.
While the victim's identity and cause of death have not yet been determined, Cleveland police homicide detectives are investigating the case.
The third homicide within the 24-hour period happened about 3:30 a.m. Sunday on the 10200 block of Lamontier Avenue in the city's Buckeye-Woodhill

A great horse rears amid the flash and boom of bombardment; careers in terror from the path of an advancing tank; struggles to free itself from treacherous swirls of barbed wire.
Here are images of man's exploitation of animals carried to bloody extremity amid the horrors of World War I.
It was bold to set out to depict such scenes on a London stage. But the National Theatre is enjoying a triumph with its production of Michael Morpurgo's War Horse, the story of Joey, beloved mount of a Devon farmer's son, translated into a beast of battle and burden in France.
This is a children's story in the tradition of Black Beauty, which makes adults sob, too.
The actors play their parts well, but the starsare the horses, larger-than-life wicker creations, modelled with conviction by the Handspring Puppet Company.
The puppeteers and directors Marianne Elliott and Tom Morris have studied and captured every equine movement and gesture.
Each horse has its own personality, cavorting with balletic grace. The performance, more pantomie than play, displays the spirit of one of the great tragedies of history.
We know that World War I killed some ten million fighting men, almost 800,000 of them British.
Much less known is the fate of a million hapless horses, sent to France between 1914 and 1918. Only 62,000 returned. War Horse offers a glimpse of the experiences that befell them.
Man has been exploiting animals for centuries. But there is a pathos about the plight of horses conscripted to suffer in conflicts which they, unlike

their riders, lack any means of understanding.
Many paintings depict warriors charging into battle with swords held high, wild-eyed mounts stretching out their necks as they surge full-tilt towards the enemy.
Yet few pictures show the consequences: battlefields on which abandoned, maimed, eviscerated animals wander in agony and bewilderment, lacking even a kindly bullet to free them from their misery.
Generals list their losses in men and guns. Few have ever troubled to mention the horses which perished in the service of their victories.
One of the few who did notice was 19th-century surgeon Sir Astley Cooper.
After Wellington's triumph at Waterloo in 1815, the wounded horses of the Household Cavalry were sold at auction in Belgium.
Sir Astley bought 12 of the worst cases and had them shipped to England.
There, he devoted monthsto their care, removing bullets and sewing up sword slashes. Afterwards, at his country park, he loved to watch the great beasts form in line, charge and gallop at their own pleasure.
Few of the horses of World War I were so rewarded. In their thousands, they were borne away to France and Flanders, cast into shells, wire and mud, where they suffered wounds and death alongside the men who rode and drove them.
In the first months of the war, cavalry sometimes attempted charges in the old fashion, which ended in catastrophe in the face of machine-guns.

move, negotiations continued until lessors conveyed their final offer on the option rental to Robert Ong, president of the lessee. At that point, Ong indicated he was getting out. Lessors then requested permission to show the premises to other parties and Ong agreed. Lessors thereafter requested and received a key to show the premises to prospective tenants and subsequently reached an agreement to lease the premises to Ying Tang. However, apparently a dispute arose between lessors, lessee and Tang as to what fixtures were to remain on the premises. In any event, on April 21, 1976, lessee's attorneys advised lessors that it intended to go ahead with its plans for a Mexican restaurant, that it was exercising its option and desired to have the matter of rent fixedcap and battery covers have been utilized in attempts to overcome the above problem with varying degrees of success. Typical amongst the prior art attempts was the design of a filter cap in the form of a hollow cylinder with small holes in the upper and lower circular faces. The interior of the cylinder was filled with small balls. The droplets of electrolyte condensed on the outer surface of the balls and collected to form larger drops which then were caused to be directed back into the battery cell. This attempt was less efficient than necessary in certain instances.
Other attempts have been made which, due to overloading of the filter caps, have necessitated the development of a structure capable of functioning at the desired and necessary efficiencies.

That same night the cosmogonist melted the bars of the prison and freed Pyron, and as they walked through the valley in silence, in the light of the radioactive mountains, which was as though a ring of moons had fallen and encircled the horizon on every side, suddenly a terrible radiance poured forth, for the pile of uranium ducats in the royal treasury had grown too great, setting off a chain reaction. The detonation blew the palace and the metal hulk of Archithorius sky-high; its force was such, that the tyrant's six hundred dismembered hands went flying into interstellar space.

Sick to Death: After his father's funeral, Jeff Michel and his family decided to plan a reunion in Mexico to spend some time together. Upon arriving in Mexico City the family waited four hours in the sweltering heat with four children under the age of five to pass customs.
Once they were allowed to pass, they rushed to their connecting flight to find the ticketagent giving away their tickets to standby passengers, resulting in another 8-hour wait. Though they knew not to drink the water, Michel and his daughter decided to eat the table salsa, and subsequently, spent the entire night suffering from food poisoning.

day roles had stressed the action angle a bit more than the more dramatic aspects of the stories, the release of Dark Blue in 2003 combined both with Russell cast as a volitile police officer tracking a killer against the backdrop of the 1992 L.A. riots.
In 2005, Russell played a frustrated father and horse-man in Dreamer: Inspired by a True Story, showing audiences that for all his on-screen bombast, he still had a sensitive side. He quickly leapt back into the action-packed saddle, however, with a leading role in 2006's remake of The Poseidon Adventure, Poseidon. Soon afterward, he accepted a role that took a decidedly self-aware perspective on his own fame as an over-the-top action star as he signed on for the leading role in Death Proof,A national epidemic of campylobacteriosis in Iceland, lessons learned.
Epidemics often result in organizational, policy and technical changes within a country. In 1999, an epidemic of campylobacteriosis was reported in Iceland. The recent availability of fresh poultry products in the marketplace was suggested as the source of infection. This paper reports on the context of the epidemic, reviews interventions implemented to prevent campylobacteriosis, and discusses lessons learned. A retrospective study of interventions implemented in Iceland from June 1995 to December 2007 was conducted by interviewing key informants and reviewing Iceland's literature. Cumulative incidence rates of domestic campylobacteriosis by year and average incidence rates per epidemic period were calculated. Interventions included on-farm surveillance of Campylobacter, producer education, enhanced biosecurity measures, changes in poultry processing, a leak-proof packaging policy, a freezing

Surfcasting for Comet McNaught
Comet McNaught is plunging toward the sun and brightening dramatically. It is now visible to the unaided eye both at sunset and at dawn. Amateur photographers have found that they can take pictures of the comet using off-the-shelf digital cameras with exposure times less than a second. Estimated visual magnitude: between 0 and -1.
To see Comet McNaught, a clear view of the horizon is essential. In the morning, go outside and face east. The comet emerges just ahead of the rising sun. In the evening, face the other way–west. The comet pops out of the western twilight as soon as the sun sets. Binoculars reveal a pretty, gaseous tail. Northern observers are favored.

to Prenda's scheme of making copyright accusations over alleged pornography downloads. He had a side business in which he helped his friends and family object to class-action settlements and then retrieve cash settlements in return for withdrawing their objections.
One of those cases was a class-action settlement involving Groupon on appeal at the US Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit. Hansmeier objected to the settlement on behalf of Padraigin Browne, who is not only his client but also his wife.
On Friday, the 9th Circuit Commissioner ordered Hansmeier, in no uncertain terms, to withdraw from the case involving Groupon since he has been referred to the Minnesota State Bar for investigation. The commissioner has delayed Hansmeier's admission to the 9th Circuit because of Wright's order, which refers to aTWU MEMBERS TO SOON VOTE ON AA FINAL OFFERS

was entered and the agents conducted an initial security sweep to determine if anyone was present. This consisted of looking in areas that could contain a person which included the various rooms, closets and crawl spaces. No one was found on the property. During the security sweep, numerous firearms were observed on a gun rack located in the residence, and an assault rifle was found in plain view in a closet. For security reasons, the firearms were unloaded and placed in a central location under guard.
After the initial security sweep was completed, Khembar Yund, a deputy sheriff employed by the Rio Grande County Sheriff's Department, brought a search dog through the residence at the request of Agent Simer. The dog was trained to alert if it smelled people,the residence and seized contraband and other items for evidence. Mr. Trujillo was told he could leave or wait outside while the search was conducted. He waited outside on his porch for awhile, left and went to a restaurant, and later returned to his residence. There is no evidence that Mr. or Mrs. Trujillo objected to the search while it was being conducted.
Mr. Trujillo was subsequently indicted by a federal grand jury in the District of Colorado for drug violations. During the course of the criminal case he moved to suppress the drugs and other evidence seized from his residence. The Court granted Mr. Trujillo's motion finding that he had not voluntarily consented to the search, and that the manner in which the evidence was seized exceeded the

Story highlights China plans ban on shark fin being served at official banquets
The ban could take up to three years to implement
Move follows proposal made at National People's Congress in March
Around 73 million sharks killed for their fins each year
China is planning to ban shark fin soup from being served at official banquets, in a sign the country may be losing its taste for the expensive delicacy.
According to Chinese media , the Government Office Administration of the State Council said the ban could take up to three years to implement and would help cut the cost of sometimes lavish banquets held for state functions.
The move followed a proposal made during the National People's Congress in March this year.
Bertha Lo of the campaign group Hong Kong Shark Foundation saidstudy quoted on the website of Lo's group. Their carcasses are usually discarded and campaigners say the practice is wasteful and cruel.
The World Wildlife Fund says that 181 species of shark are under threat, up from 15 in 1996.
Shark's fin soup is widely served in restaurants in Chinese communities worldwide and is a dish often served at weddings to mark the importance of the occasion and impress the couple's extended families and friends.
But the custom has become less popular among a younger generation of diners, who are more environmentally conscious, says Lo.
Last year, the operator of the high-end Peninsula hotel chain said it would remove shark fin products from its menus and Shangri-la Hotels made a similar move this year.
In Beijing, the five-star Swissotel has also stopped serving

The Andrick structure comprises a pivoted floor trap which blocks exit of the animal from the trap on pivoting of a false floor. The Andrick trap must be set in substantially horizontal dispositions due to the reliance of the trap on a gravitational closure mechanism. In a subterranean environment, the Andrick trap would be further subject to fouling of the closure mechanism by loose soil or other debris.

how the components are connected or arranged to implement the information system. The possible conditions in which an information system or system component can be arranged affect the security posture of the information system. The activities involved in managing the configuration of an information system include development of a configuration management plan, establishment of a configuration control board, development of a methodology for configuration item identification, establishment of the baseline configuration, development of a configuration change control process, and development of a process for configuration monitoring and reporting.
#### The Phases of Security-Focused Configuration Management
Here are the four defined steps for security CM as found in SP 800-128:
A. Planning
As a part of planning, the scope or applicability of SecCM processes are identified. Planning includes developing policy and procedures tosigns of incidents may occur each day, recorded mainly by logging and computer security software. Automation is needed to perform an initial analysis of the data and select events of interest for human review. Event correlation software can be of great value in automating the analysis process. However, the effectiveness of the process depends on the quality of the data that goes into it. Organizations should establish logging standards and procedures to ensure that adequate information is collected by logs and security software and that the data is reviewed regularly.
F. Organizations should create written guidelines for prioritizing incidents.
Prioritizing the handling of individual incidents is a critical decision point in the incident response process. Effective information sharing can help an organization identify situations that are of greater severity and

Interview a sample of key organizational personnel within the organization elements for evidence that the media protection policy is reviewed and updated at least every three years, and the procedures at least annually.
### MP-2
Examine information system media protection policy, access control policy, physical and environmental protection policy, procedures addressing media access protections, procedures addressing access control, procedures addressing access authorizations, procedures addressing physical access control, procedures addressing physical access authorizations, security plan, or other relevant documents for the organization-defined information system media containing information requiring restricted access as defined by the service provider and approved and accepted by the JAB; organization-defined personnel or rolesand updates, security plan, or other relevant documents for the measures to be employed to update the security plan to address changes to the information system/environment of operation or problems identified during plan implementation or security control assessments.
Examine security plan and a sample of change control records addressing security plan revisions from changes to the information system/environment for evidence that the measures are being applied.
Note to assessor: Change control records addressing security plan revisions may be maintained in the security plan, or maintained in change management software or document management software used by the organization.

comes in for the injured Phil Jaques. The pitch looks good for batting today.'
Raina: 'MS wanted to take a break, so it's a good opportunity for me to go to India with a win. Definitely he will bowl for a couple of overs today. We are bowling today.'
Surprise, surprise Raina is captaining Chennai today. MS is playing as well.
Chennai have won the toss and elected to field
Welcome to the first game of the double dead rubber. Chennai take on Yorks in the first game and Mumbai play Sydney in the next. There is nothing at stake in both these games, except 'pride' and probably some match practice for Sydney before the semi finals. Stay tuned for the toss and other updates.
Preview
Already out of the semi-final race, T20 Leagueheavyweights Chennai would look to redeem some pride and end their campaign on a high when they take on a less-formidable Yorkshire in their final Group B match of the Champions League Twenty20 in Durban on Monday.
Both Chennai and fellow T20 League side Mumbai have crashed out of the tournament after Sydney Sixers and HighveldLions qualified for the semi-finals from Group B.
Even before the first ball was bowled in Saturday night's T20 League derby between Chennai and Mumbai, the match was rendered a dead-rubber after Lions notched up a five-wicket victory over Yorkshire earlier in the day to become the second team from Group B to reach the semifinals.
However, there was something to cheer about for Chennai fans as the Mahendra Singh Dhoni-led side eked out a narrow

six-run win over Mumbai in the consequential T20 League derby.
Chennai would like to carry on the winning momentum into Monday's match and going by form, the Indian outfit starts as overwhelming favourites against Yorkshire.
Chennai
The Chennai-based team started its campaign with a 14-run loss to Sydney Sixers before suffering a six-wicket defeat at the hands of Lions.
They, however, managed to register a win over Mumbai, which though came a little too late. Against Mumbai on Saturday night, Murali Vijay and Faf du Plessis set the platform with a challenging 173 for 8 with a 86-run opening stand.
Dhoni also played a useful hand with a 19-ball 35-run cameo.And if they can continue the same way, there is no reason why Chennai can't post a huge total against a weak Yorkshirebowling attack.
Bowling, however, remains a concern for Chennai as their slow bowlers were taken for a ride by Mumbai batsmen on Saturday night.
But their pace department is in the safe hands of Ben Hilfenhaus, who turned out to be the hero for Chennai on Saturday with figures of two for 14 from his four overs.
Yorkshire
Injury-hit English side, Yorkshire is also out of the semi-final reckoning as they are languishing at the bottom of Group B. After winning both their matches in the Qualifying event, Yorkshire received a mauling at the hands of Sydney Sixers in their first match before sharing the points against Mumbai in a rained-out game.
They needed to win against Lions yesterday to stay in the hunt and keep the group wide open, but failed to

building. It also also pretty obvious that there was some sort of sudden destruction of the plants here. Traces of ash and hollow empty branches and roots scatter the now overgrown with weed field. It is not obvious what the disaster was or if it was an accident of done on purpose.
The library looks a bit like a typical library, housed with tons of books that are completely incomprehensible to the party. However, in the center of the main room there is a strange domed machine that the party manages to turn on. Inside the dome a small humanoid grasshopper creature appears seemingly out of thing air. It welcomes them to the library and asks them what they would like to know about. The party begins probing thespace between wolrds, the Grey World, and locked temselves away for 1247 years, which is a holy number to them, for it was believed that the disease would be gone by then and that it would be a good time to come back to the worlds they formerly inhabited. Tragedy struck when many years later a strange outbreak occured that the Lumar believes was the same strange diease which they had spread world to world years earlier. It spread to their food supply and they burned and destroyed it to keep it from killing everyone, but it was too late, they were down to their last numbers. Those still unaffected sent the infected to another color world to be quarantined in hopes to save their grey world habitat,

That's often how college football recruiting goes these days, and National Signing Day earlier this week proved to be no exception.
The Alabama Crimson Tide put together yet another top-ranked recruiting class on Wednesday. It marked the fourth consecutive year and sixth time in the last seven years the Tide's recruiting class was considered the nation's best.
How does the Tide continue to stay on top?
Since Nick Saban was hired in 2007, he has turned the Crimson Tide into a household name by winning a trio of BCS National Championships, and it shows on the recruiting trail. Alabama no longer limits itself to the southeast when searching for talent, as the Tide consistently pulls in elite prospects from across the country.
Just take a look at our visual aid above. Alabama's2014 recruiting class consists of 26 signees from 15 different states.
Two BCS Championship appearances in the last four years has certainly helped Auburn on the recruiting front as well.
Head coach Gus Malzahn reeled together one of the nation's top 10 classes, but with more local flavor than Alabama's. The Tigers signed 23 players from five different states, including 10 from the nearby state of Georgia.
In 2013, the Tide signed 26 players from 13 states. The Tigers signed 24 players from 10 states, two months after Malzahn replaced Gene Chizik as head coach.
Recruiting never ends, so only time will tell where the trail will go as Saban and Malzahn shift their focus to the top 2015 prospects.
The full list of 2014 signees for both schools can be found below.

visitors to apply to be the owner of one of the objects on view.
Twomey has gained an international reputation with her ephemeral installations. In her 2007 installation Trophy, Twomey placed 4,000 Wedgwood jasperware bluebirds in the Cast Courts at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. The exhibition activated historically significant galleries with thousands of objects made from clay from the most important and innovative English ceramic manufacturer. Without being prompted or invited, visitors took the birds, scattering them throughout the world. Considering the museums draw, it meant not only that the installation gave visitors a new appreciation for the gallery and the museums history, but also that the birds flew around the globe. In June 2010, Twomey placed 3,000 black ceramic butterflies throughout the public and privaterooms of the renowned Brighton Pavilion, the magnificent palace built for King George IV. Twomeys installation, A Dark Day in Paradise, added provocative levels of interpretation to one of the early-19th centurys most opulent and fantastic interiors. Twomeys ceramic insects, depending on ones point of view, were seen to invade disturb, delight or be trapped in the spaces.
Catherine Futter, the Helen Jane and R. Hugh Pat Uhlmann Curator of Decorative Arts, met Twomey when she visited a ceramics class at the Kansas City Art Institute in the spring of 2008. That led to a visit to the Museums Burnap collection, considered the best collection of a British pottery outside England. The collection is also important to the Nelson-Atkins as it was the first collection of art donated to

the Museum in 1941, seven years after the founding of the institution. It was the result of decades of collecting by Harriet and Frank Burnap.
In discussing the development of a project between Twomey and the Museum, Futter said, Clare was not only interested in particular works in the Burnap collection that are seen as defining objects in the history of British pottery, but also the motivations, responsibilities and trust of donating an entire collection or a single work of art to a museum.
In giving the collection, the Burnaps entrusted the Museum with the care, accessibility and display of 1,345 worksfrom 12th-century earthenwares to early 19th-century works by Wedgwood. The Deed of Gift stipulated that the Museum could not sell the collection or any works, that the collection mustbe accessible to scholars and lovers of art and that no other ceramics may be displayed with the collection. The Deed of Gift frequently employs the phrase in trust forever, signifying the weight and importance that this gift meant to the Burnaps and the level of trust that they put in the Museum.
Twomey was drawn to one of the most significant objects in the Burnap collection: a salt-glazed stoneware two-handled cup used for drinking caudle, a beverage made of spiced wine or ale and thickened with bread or oatmeal, originally given to invalids but which became increasingly fashionable in the early 18th century. The cup, which is inscribed Mrs. Mary Sandbach her Cup anno dom 1720, is noted for being the earliest-known dated piece of English salt-glazed stoneware,

Bank as part collateral for loans from the bank, together with pledges of the automobile title and assignment of automobile insurance policies. The titles and insurance policies were retained in the Rocket office. Numerous bank officials and a former employee of Rocket testified that the great bulk of sales contracts submitted to the banks were transmitted through the mails to the banks' commercial loan departments.
8
In July of 1962, both of the banks involved caused audits to be made of Rocket's records, since titles and insurance assignments were missing on the contracts they had taken as collateral for loans. The subsequent investigation revealed that Lawson had submitted at least 19 contracts to Rocket which, he admitted during the course of the trial, were fraudulent. JohnTellone testified at trial that he placed at least 50 or 60 fraudulent sales contracts with Marine during a three-year period, and his testimony revealed that the mechanics of such transfers were largely similar to those involved in the Lawson transfers to Marine.

ADMISSION OF EVIDENCE OF EXTRA-INDICTMENT OFFENSES
10
Defendant first contends that the district court committed prejudicial error in the admission into evidence of the fraudulent auto sales transactions between defendant and John Tellone, which tended to show the commission of another crime by the defendant. He argues that such evidence was both highly prejudicial and of little probative value, and that such evidence had the effect of causing the jury to convict Marine of the crime for which he was on trial because they were led to

Freemasonry's regulating body in Britain. That same year the 'New York' obelisk was noticed by US President Ulysses S. Grant and General William T. Sherman during a visit to Egypt, who felt that America should also have an ancient Egyptian obelisk of its own. Henry W. Gorringe, a prominent Freemason, was selected for the task of bringing the obelisk to New York. The obelisk was raised in October 1880 outside the newly built Metropolitan Museum, with over ten thousand Freemasons attending the ceremony in Masonic regalia. The important symbolic aspect of an obelisk is not its tall stem but mainly its top which is shaped like a small pyramid. Pyramids, especially with the 'eye of providence' in them, feature very prominently in Masonic rituals. The symbol can beseen on the face of the US one-dollar bill and also on the Great Seal of the United States. In Freemasonry the glowing pyramid and eye represents the so-called Great Architect of the Universe or the Supreme Being, both epithets for God. This Masonic symbolism was used prominently in France during the 1789 Revolution and was embossed on the front of The Declaration of Human Rights. The first celebrations of the French Revolution that took place in 1793 saw many makeshift 'pyramids' raised in the heart of Paris and in the courtyard of the Louvre Museum, causing many historians to suspect a Masonic involvement. Today a glass pyramid with the same geometrical proportions as the Great Pyramid of Giza adorns the courtyard of the Louvre.

for the Bicentennial of the French Revolution when he set up a large metal-framed pyramid as a stage for his band in front of the Grande Arche at La Defense in the western end of the Champs Elysees. Another show by Jarre also took place a few years later in London's Canary Wharf which is topped by a glowing glass pyramid apparently having the same geometrical proportions as the Great Pyramid in Egypt, and as the one that stands in the courtyard of the Louvre Museum in Paris, built by the American architect Ming Pei. It would appear that the idea of a new golden capstone for the Great Pyramid originated with Dr. Zahi Hawass, Under-secretary of State for the Giza Monuments. In early 1998 Dr. Hawass unearthedtwo limestone blocks with ancient inscriptions and drawings depicting workers moving a golden capstone for a royal pyramid amid scenes of dancing and celebrations and proposed that Egypt should celebrate the millennium in a similar way. At first 3 million people were scheduled to attend the event free of charge but the Egyptian authorities put a limit of 250,000 for 'security reasons'. Huge promotional events were organised in various capitals of the Western world, including New York, Los Angeles, Sydney and various cities in Europe. Preparations then began for a huge stage in the desert south of the Great Pyramid, intended to have seating capacity for 25,000 people at the price of $400 per ticket. Cheaper tickets of $15 were also sold for 'standing' places in the nearby

by looking towards their powerful bottom lane duo, choosing to dive CLG at three minutes to get Nisqy First Blood. Though Wiggily ganked him shortly after, C9 controlled every single objective, including two Mountain Dragons, the First Tower bonus and Rift Herald. On top of this, C9 destroyed towers quickly and capitalized on 2,000 gold worth of tower plates.
It wasn't as bloody as their earlier match against OPT, but C9 seemed to snuff the life out of CLG similarily. After taking another tower and Cloud Dragon, C9 baited CLG to come to the Baron pit, where they killed Wiggily. Without their Smite, CLG had to give over the buff to C9, which they happily accepted. The top and middle Inhibitors fell quickly as C9 clinically tore down CLG'sthe dragon pit at 15 minutes, but OPT had a firm handle on the game.
After 20 minutes, OPT picked off multiple GGS members. Each of these picks led to more towers, expanding their map control and gold lead. Dhokla was a menace in the side lane during this time, being so bold as to take an Inhibitor Tower by himself. OPT caught out Huhi at 31 minutes, which led to Froggen getting killed too. OPT seized this opportunity to take the middle Inhibitor and reset. Finally, at 32 minutes, the teams met at the Mountain Dragon for another team fight. OPT slaughtered three from GGS then instantly bolted for the base. They had to siege for a couple of minutes but did indeed take this important Nexus to

A Calgary police officer has been fined $100 and faces 12 months of probation for breaking into his estranged wife's home while she was away on vacation with their two children.
CBC News is not identifying the officer in order to protect the identity of the woman and the two children and will only refer to him as DC.
The break-in took place on April 13, 2016 in the midst of a contested divorce during which a judge granted the wife exclusive possession of the home the couple once shared.
DC was only allowed inside the home to gather some of his things and only with a police escort present.
According to an agreed statement of facts read in court in January when DC pleaded guilty to forcible entry, DC knew hiswife was away and tried to enter the home, but the locks had been changed.
DC called a locksmith to help him enter the home and neighbours called police, knowing of the couple's situation.
He was arrested as he loaded items into his pickup.
DC was sentenced on July 21.

of five straight wins following the appointment of manager Chris Wilder.
Things did not start well for United. Oxford were dangerous from the off, with a penalty claim waved away in the first five minutes by referee Peter Quinn. Cambridge looked hesitant and clumsy on the ball and it wasn't long before Oxford went close in the form of a powerful header from Adam Murray; punched away by keeper Danny Potter. Murray again went close two minutes later this time scooping his shot just over the bar and into the home crowd
The U's were left looking sheepish on ten minutes. Haldane skipped down the right wing for Oxford, befuddling the Cambridge defence before offloading to Constable who in turn squared for a predictably unmarked Murray to slot home comfortably.
Thegoal brought big Gary Brabin to the outer reaches of the dugout area, a position from which he hardly moved for the rest of the match.
Whether it was the goal was or the thought of what Brabin was planning to say at half time, the Cambridge players slowly began to drag themselves out of their torpor and into the game.
Their first real threat on goal came against the run of play. Crow seemed as surprised as anyone when, after the Us broke to the right, he managed to slip Carden's pass under Oxford's diving keeper only to see his shot bounce agonisingly off the left upright.
Thirty minutes in and Oxford were still looking the more composed of the two sides. Cambridge displayed the odd flash of class, particularly

himself the guitar. He set out to learn everything he could about the instrument, not only technique, but how to express himself through it; How to make it sing. Some of his idols at this time were Randy Rhoads and Yngwie Malmsteen. Like his heroes, Brian begins to incorporate many elements of classical music. Eventually, he moved onto jazzier players as well. The late, great Shawn Lane was a spiritual mentor to Brian and heavily influenced him.Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers came out in 1988. It was not well received by critics nor by fans of the genre. It did, however, affect one person. This was when Brian Carroll became Buckethead. Up until then, he was an amazing guitarist, no doubt, but that was his wholepersonality. This made him unique. He picked up a mask at a local Halloween store and took it home. Later that night, eating from a bucket of fried chicken, another inspiration struck him. He overturned the bucket and put it atop his head. He had been changed and so had his musical output. He has mastered many difficult guitar techniques that he puts to use whenever he feels they'll fit. His chicken-picks, 8-finger taps, and can switch confidently from crushing chords to lightning fast sweeping runs.The following sections will be about Buckethead's career. I, however, am only one man and considering the amount of side projects and guest appearances, some may be forgotten or simply omitted.Solo Career Buckethead's first solo album, Bucketheadland was released in 1992 on John

guitar, Bootsy Collins on bass, Brain on drums, Bernie Worrell of Funkadelic and Parliament fame on keys, and Afrika Babybam from the Jungle Brothers on the turntables, this album couldn't possibly fail. And it does not disappoint in the least. A mix of electronica, thrash-metal, and funk, the album is a highlight of Buckethead's career. There's no shortage of anything on it. Metatron came next with only the core band of Buckethead, Brain, and Laswell. Not as strong as the debut but an excellent showcase for Buckethead's ability. Following this, they released Sacrifist featuring guest vocals by the Boredoms' Yamatsuka Eye. Sacrifist is heavier than its predecessors. It's pure sonic assault and is a very solid release. By Warszawa the band was merely a shell of what itused to be but were still pushing boundaries. Recorded live, Warszawa is more hip-hop oriented. Still only the core three members, the group is fleshed out by three DJs who add their own twists to the sound.Deli Creeps Buckethead's first group was the Deli Creeps. Based out of San Francisco, the band gained early supporters, among them was Mike Patton. I'm going to be honest and say that I have never heard this band. It's extremely hard to find material by them. The band is comprised of Buckethead, Pinchface on drums, and Maximum Bob on vocals.Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains This super-group was born at the Bonnaroo Music Festival in Tennessee.

Election of Office Bearers
At the start of the first meeting of the committee and after each Annual General Meeting the committee will from among its own members elect a Chairperson,
Secretary and Treasurer.
They will continue in their posts until the following annual general meeting.
Should the Chairperson not be present at the meeting, the members of the committee present will at the commencement of business elect one of themselves to
take the chair for that meeting.
7. Procedure at Meetings
7.1 Each member has one vote but only members of the committee may vote at committee meetings. Every question at a meeting will be decided by the majority of those voting. In the case of equality of votes the occupier of the chair will have a casting vote.

The drum itself is rotatable from an orientation where the elemental segment opening is at the top to a dumping position where the opening is rotated downward until mortar is free to spill from the drum. Since the drum contains rotating paddles it presents a safety hazard, and the typical mortar mixer design includes protective grates covering the opening. Typically there are two sections to the protective grate, the first being fixed and the second hinged to open when mortar is being dumped from the drum. The grates are normally made of steel and have sufficient opening size to allow water and dry mortar to be easily dumped into the drum, yet small enough to

time consuming chore and can easily result in damaged paddles and dents in the drum which interfere with the contoured surface of the drum and, if severe enough, will interfere with the rotation of the mixing paddles causing the paddle assembly to jam inside the drum. In practice it has been found that when a mortar mixer is being used on a full-time basis, the all steel drum should be replaced every three to six months. This of course is time consuming and expensive.

section, the sealing gasket being formed as a ring shaped composite
elastomeric body which, when viewed in cross section, has a leading
region formed of a thermoplastic elastomer material and which has a
trailing region formed of a synthetic plastic material, the leading
region having an outer surface and an inner primary compression sealing
surface which forms a compression seal with the exterior surface of the
mating male pipe when the mating male pipe is inserted within the socket
end of the thermoplastic pipe to form a pipe joint;wherein the trailing
body region of the gasket has a series of recessed pockets formed therein
which provide a scallop-like pattern on the outer surface of the trailing
region of the gasketbody, and wherein the outer circumferential region
of the gasket body contacts the groove provided within the socket end of
a thermoplastic pipe during pipe belling operations as the socket end is
heated to thereby deform the socket end and integrally lock the gasket
body within the socket end during the belling operation, wherein the
contact between the gasket body and the socket end of the thermoplastic
pipe during the belling operation structurally integrates the gasket body
with the pipe socket end so that the trailing region of the gasket body
is no longer required to act as a discrete structural member in the
resulting pipe joint;installing the spigot end of one thermoplastic pipe

by lawyer Lauro Sgro.
Sgro received a note last year telling her to 'look where the angel is pointing', along with a photograph of the tomb, it said.
A poster calling for information on Emanuela Orlandi, who disappeared aged 15 from a Rome street in 1983
The grave in question features a marble angel holding a tablet reading 'Rest in Peace' in Latin, above a tombstone with an inscription dedicated to a German prince who was nominated archbishop by Pope Pio IX in 1857, and his wife.
Tests done on the tomb since the tip-off show that it has been opened at least once, and the date of the tablet is different to that of the tombstone, the Corriere said.
Sgro said she had also been able to 'verify that some people knewthere was a chance Emauela Orlandi's body had been hidden in the German cemetery,' her letter to the Vatican read.
People had also been leaving flowers on the tomb, she said.
According to some theories, the teenager was snatched by an organised crime gang to put pressure on Vatican officials to recover a loan.
Another claim was that she was taken to force the release from prison of Mehmet Ali Agca, the Turk who attempted to assassinate Pope Jean Paul II in 1981.
The family braced for a breakthrough in October when human remains were discovered on a Vatican property, only to be disappointed when tests showed the skeleton did not belong to a teenage girl.

Ever since the Clinton administration concluded an agreement in 1994 that was supposed to prevent the Stalinist state from building nuclear weapons, a dismal pattern has been established.
North Korea tramples on the rules of international behaviour, so America bribes the regime with concessions in order to make it stop. North Korea then breaks the deal and behaves even more badly. So America offers more concessions. Then North Korea reneges on the agreement again. And America offers yet more inducements.
So the circle continues, with Kim Jong-il's regime managing the extraordinary feat of being rewarded for its delinquency. North Korea's first nuclear test in October 2006 was followed by a supposed diplomatic breakthrough the following year.
Under the agreement reached in February 2007, Mr Kim was supposed to give up hisatomic arsenal and dismantle his nuclear reactor at Yongbyon in return for fuel, food and North Korea's removal from America's list of state sponsors of terrorism.
Needless to say, Mr Kim broke the deal, neither sacrificing his weapons nor dismantling Yongbyon. But America kept its side of the bargain in a fruitless effort to keep him on the straight and narrow. Last October, North Korea became only the second country after Libya to win removal from the State Department's terrorism list - and unlike Col Gaddafi's regime, Mr Kim did nothing concrete in return.

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - While standing outside a burning vacant house in May 2012, former Birmingham police officer Curtis Jeffrey Thornton talked about how someone could go onto the Internet and find out how candles and clothing could be used in starting a fire, another former officer testified today.
Sharon Manaici, a former Birmingham police officer who testified she heard Thornton talking about the method for setting a fire, was among several witnesses to testify in the third day of Thornton's arson trial.
Thornton, 28, is on trial for four counts of second degree arson and one count each of attempted second degree arson and first degree criminal mischief related to four fires in Warrior and two fires in western Birmingham - an area to which he was assigned to patrolbefore his arrest - in April and May of last year. He maintains he did not set the fires.
Thornton was later charged with possession of child pornography, but that charge is not a part of this week's trial and jurors are not allowed to hear evidence about that.
The trial is being held before Jefferson County Circuit Court Judge Clyde Jones. The prosecutors are John Geer and Joe Roberts. The defense attorneys are Brett Hamock and Cooper Ellenberg.
Manaici said that she had been called to a vacant house at 1708 29th Street in western Birmingham early in the morning of May 21 where two burglary suspects - a man and a woman - had been held by officers responding to the scene. She said she had been called in

to handle the arrest of the woman suspect.
Manaici said that as she was leaving she saw Thornton inside the house and asked him if the basement had been checked. She said Thornton said the basement had been cleared.
About 10 minutes after she left the scene she responded to a house fire call at the same house. When she returned, Thornton was there with other officers. She said Thornton talked about how you could find on the internet how to use candles and clothing to start a fire that would give someone time to leave the building.
Manaici testified she later tried finding that on the internet but could not.
Mike Pate, a retired Birmingham Fire Department investigator, testified that he determined the fire had started in the basement. He statedhe had collected pieces of newspaper, fabric and a waxy or paraffin-like substance that he sent for state forensic analysis. He testified the forensics did not confirm the presence of paraffin.
On cross examination by Brett Hamock, Manaici at first denied she had ever had a verbal altercation with Thornton before that night. But then she remembered she did have a disagreement while the two officers were responding to a call at a nightclub. A suspect had gotten his head busted open and Thornton had argued against the need to call paramedics, but Manaici said she did anyway.
Manaici said she liked everyone, but admitted under cross examination by Hamock that she did remember telling investigators she didn't like Thornton.
Manaici also testified that there was a van at the scene

of using as a receptacle for refuse wherewith to feed the swine.
So spoke the young sailor. But the old man heaved a sigh that betrayed
the most terrible anguish. Tottering, he sank into his stone chair,
covered his face with his hands, and wept like a child. The great, gaunt
bird, with a shrill screech, flapped its immense wings, and menaced the
strangers with claws and beak. The old goat licked its master's hands,
and bleated mournfully as in consolation.
At this strange sight, an uncanny terror seized upon the sailors: they
hurriedly left the hut, and were glad when they could no longer hear the
sobbing of the old man, the screaming of the bird, and the bleating of
the goat. When they were safely on board the boat, they narrated their
adventure. Among the crew wasinfluence of French urbanity. God has given us
tongues that we may say something pleasant to our fellow-men.
My French had grown rusty since the battle of Waterloo, but after
half-an-hour's conversation with a pretty flower-girl in the Passage de
l'Opera it soon flowed fluently again. I managed to stammer forth
gallant phrases in broken French, and explained to the little charmer
the Linnaean system, in which flowers are classified according to their
stamens. The little one practised a different system, and divided
flowers into those which smelled pleasantly and those which smelled
unpleasantly. I believe that she applied a similar classification to
men. She was surprised that, notwithstanding my youth, I was so learned,
and spread the fame of my erudition through the whole Passage de
l'Opera. I inhaled with rapturous delight the delicious aroma of
flattery, and amused myself

state prison that day, with the understanding that he was going to be released on a Vargas
waiver. The court explained that if he returned to court on November 29, 2011, it would
resentence him to eight years in state prison. Defendant responded that he understood
everything. He then pled no contest to counts 1, 3, and 5 and admitted the prior strike
allegation, the prior prison allegations, and the allegation that hea bench warrant. He did not return to court until December 12, 2011, when
he was in custody. The hearing was continued until January 13, 2012, at which time
defendant announced that he wanted to withdraw his plea. The court appointed new
counsel for the purpose of a plea withdrawal motion, and set a hearing on the motion for
March 16, 2012. Defendant filed a written motion and attached a declaration and letter.
At the outset of the hearing on the motion to withdraw, the court stated that it read
and considered the moving papers, as well as the transcript of the plea hearing. The court
stated that defendant was not eligible to withdraw his plea, since he had already been

law judge learned that Thomas Smith had died in March of 1975 and that Smith's counsel had filed a LHWCA claim for death benefits on behalf of Smith's widow and child the following October.
16
These revelations prompted a second show-cause hearing, notice of which was sent to all counsel. At that hearing, no testimony was introduced, but the parties did stipulate that Smith's death was caused by silicosis. Subsequently, the administrative law judge issued a decision denying death benefits to Smith's widow but imposing liability for disability compensation on Aerojet. The judge found that neither Atlantic Sandblasting nor Jacksonville Shipyards was liable for compensation because the companies did not use free silica in sandblasting during the period they employed Smith. The judge identified Aerojet asthe last employer under whom Smith was exposed to free silica, and found Transport Indemnity to be the insurer on the risk for Aerojet at that time. The administrative law judge held that Smith's compensation claim and notice were timely as to Aerojet under sections twelve and thirteen and thus that Aerojet was liable under the LHWCA. Concerning the claim for death benefits, however, the judge found that although Smith's widow had filed her claim within one year of death as required by section thirteen, she had failed to give notice of Smith's death within the thirty-day limitations period of section twelve. Her claim was therefore time-barred.
17
On appeal once again, the Benefits Review Board affirmed the denial of death benefits and reversed the award of

McGrann, 32, was born and raised in southern Iowa and currently resides in Bondurant with his wife and son.After committing the crimes, Giarratano traveled by bus to Jacksonville, Florida. In the bus station, he surrendered to a policeman and confessed to the crimes. Upon being returned to Norfolk he again confessed. After he attempted to commit suicide, the trial court ordered that he be removed from the local jail and examined at Central State Hospital. There Dr. Miller M. Ryans found no evidence of mental illness or feeblemindedness and concluded that he was competent to stand trial. Dr. Ryans also found that at the time of the offense he was not mentally ill.

Giarratano, represented by new counsel, sought a writ of habeas corpus from the Circuit Court of the City of Norfolk. In an opinion and order entered May 26, 1981, the state habeas court summarily dismissed allegations challenging the constitutionality of the state's capital murder sentencing procedures both facially and as applied to Giarratano. The court conducted an evidentiary hearing on the allegation of ineffective assistance of counsel. In an opinion and order dated November 13, 1981, the state habeas court ruled that Giarratano's trial counsel afforded him competent representation. The Virginia Supreme Court, finding no reversible error, refused Giarratano's petition for appeal.
11
Giarratano, through counsel, next applied for a writ of habeas corpus in the District Court for the Eastern District of Virginiaattacking his death sentence. He then amended his petition twice. In the second amended petition, Giarratano added claim XI alleging for the first time that he was incompetent to participate in the sentencing proceedings. The parties agreed that Giarratano had exhausted all available state remedies. On October 1, 1985, the district court denied relief on all claims except number XI. On June 25, 1986, after further briefing, it denied relief on this claim and entered final judgment. The court then stayed its judgment to permit Giarratano to present his lack of competency claim to the state courts.

The Circuit Court of the City of Norfolk denied the petition summarily, and the Virginia Supreme Court refused the petition for appeal.

Giarratano returned to federal court and moved to amend his petition

During discovery, Solitro had drawn a line indicating his
own movement in relation to other physical landmarks including the
Camaro; the line was drawn on a clear overlay laid atop a made-to-
scale diagram prepared by the state attorney general in his own
investigation. Scheck planned to rely importantly on the diagram
in his opening to explain to the jury the defense version of what
had happened. However, in September 2003, out-takes filmed by a
local TV station on the night of the shooting became available and,
from defense counsel's viewpoint, raised questions about the
accuracy of the diagram–-at least as to the location of thediagram in the opening. Then, with the
opening statements about to begin, Scheck signed a stipulation
drafted by defense counsel that the diagram was inaccurate as to
the location of the Camaro and that the actual alignment of the car
was as described in the stipulation. On this basis, Scheck was
allowed to use the diagram in the opening, but he was not allowed
thereafter to elicit testimony contradicting the stipulation.
Over the next several days of trial, further examination
of the photographs persuaded Scheck and his colleagues that the
out-takes did not contradict the diagram. A young associate at
Scheck's firm was told to draft a memorandum to support a motion

This past Sunday, round 8 of the ten round 2018 Monster Energy Guam Motocross Championship was held at the Guam International Raceway located in the northern village of Yigo. The field of competitors included both several mini bike and atv youth classes ranging from ages 4 years up to 15 and also by the full sized machines of the Open Atv and Motorcycle classes that saw competitors ages ranging from 16 years and up. Racing kicked off at noon under overcast skies and with the Open Atv class taking to the challenging jump filled course first.
Highlights and results
In the Open Atv class right off the start it was the #4 Robert Bucek aboard the Cycles Plus Suzuki getting to the first turn ahead of a snarling pack ofYamaha Raptors who quickly shredded the first turn lead of Bucek leaving the Cycles Plus rider back in 5th as they headed down the first straight. With mud slinging and toads leaping for their lives #75 George Santos tore through the course on his Yamaha taking the lead and proceeding to put distance on the rest of the field. Early on in the heat it was #22 of Ken Tedtaotao running in second, third was #64 George Santos jr. with #24 Cameron Chaco in fourth being challenged by the #4 of Bucek. Bucek then began a charge and was able to quickly pick off the #24 of Chaco when Chaco began having engine problems. Bucek then made a quick pass on both the #64 of Santos jr. and

the #22 of Tedtaotao to put himself into second but with time running out in the first heat was unable to catch the eventual heat one winner #75 George Santos.
In the second half of the event, heat two, the #75 of Santos and the #4 of Bucek went back and forth right out of the gates swapping the lead with Santos using the power of the 700cc Yamaha Raptor to muscle his way past Bucek for the lead. Bucek then using his decades of championship experience started picking the better lines around the course eventually reeling in the #75 Raptor of Santos. Once caught Bucek then went on to make the pass on Santos to take the win with the #75 of Santos finishing in second. With hissecond and a first place finish Bucek steals the overall round 8 win from the #75 of Santos who had a first and second place finishes for a second overall. Taking third was the #22 of Ken Tedtaotao with the #64 of George Santos jr. in fourth. Rounding out the top five was #24 Cameron Chaco who had suffered from mechanical issues.
In the Open Motorcycle class #31 Tim Wenden aboard the Rocky Mountain Precast supported Ktm took the lead in both the two heats right from the drop of the gates. With the overcast skies letting loose a torrent of rain that was falling more horizontally than vertically the #1 of Lil Jon Aguon aboard his Ground Tech Services supported Yamaha challenged the early leader Wenden.

of their faith as outlined in the Four-fold Mission of the Church.
Mormons believe that after physical death the spirit is separated from the body and enters the Spirit World. The spirit is then places in Spirit Prison or Spirit Paradise, based on the person's words and deeds during their life. A primary reference for this belief can be found in Alma:40 in the Book of Mormon.
Mormons believe that when Christ was in the Spirit World prior to his Resurrection he organized a ministry among the righteous dead assembled in the Spirit Paradise and bridged the gulf between Spirit Paradise and Spirit Prison. This can be found in Doctrine and Covenants Section 138.
Hand in hand with the belief of the ministry to the dead is the doctrine ofBaptism for the Dead. Members of the LDS church observe the practice of Baptism for the Dead in which they are baptizes as proxy for their ancestors. This gives those in Spirit Prison who accept the gospel posthumously a chance to receive the necessary saving ordinances to enter into Spirit Paradise. Baptism for the Dead is only done within Temples and is seen as a very sacred ordinance. More about the Baptism for the Dead can be found in Doctrine and Covenants Section 127 and 128.
A:
The LDS concept of preaching to the spirits of the dead derives from a couple passages in 1 Peter:
18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death

Christ.
15 I beheld that they were filled with joy and gladness, and were
rejoicing together because the day of their deliverance was at hand.
16 They were assembled awaiting the advent of the Son of God into the
spirit world, to declare their redemption from the bands of death.
17 Their sleeping dust was to be restored unto its perfect frame, bone
to his bone, and the sinews and the flesh upon them, the spirit and
the body to be united never again to be divided, that they might
receive a fulness of joy.
18 While this vast multitude waited and conversed, rejoicing in the
hour of their deliverance from the chains of death, the Son of God
appeared, declaring liberty to the captiveswho had been faithful;
19 And there he preached to them the everlasting gospel, the doctrine
of the resurrection and the redemption of mankind from the fall, and
from individual sins on conditions of repentance.
20 But unto the wicked he did not go, and among the ungodly and the
unrepentant who had defiled themselves while in the flesh, his voice
was not raised;
21 Neither did the rebellious who rejected the testimonies and the
warnings of the ancient prophets behold his presence, nor look upon
his face.
22 Where these were, darkness reigned, but among the righteous there
was peace;
23 And the saints rejoiced in their redemption, and bowed the knee and
acknowledged the Son of God as their Redeemer and Deliverer from

commissioned them to go forth and carry the light of the gospel to
them that were in darkness, even to all the spirits of men; and thus
was the gospel preached to the dead.
31 And the chosen messengers went forth to declare the acceptable day
of the Lord and proclaim liberty to the captives who were bound, even
unto all who would repent of their sins and receive the gospel.
32 Thus was the gospel preached to those who had died in their sins,
without a knowledge of the truth, or in transgression, having rejected
the prophets.
33 These were taught faith in God, repentance from sin, vicarious
baptism for the remission of sins, the gift of the Holy Ghost by the
laying on of hands,
34 And all other principles of the gospel that were necessary for them
to know in order to qualify themselves that they might be judged
according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the
spirit.
35 And so it was made known among the dead, both small and great, the
unrighteous as well as the faithful, that redemption had been wrought

hen Suffolk Superior Court Judge Constance M. Sweeney ordered Cardinal Bernard F. Law to submit to questioning by lawyers for the alleged victims of convicted pedophile and defrocked priest John J. Geoghan last week, it was a legal watershed.
Law became the first cardinal in the United States to be deposed over his actions as a prince of the church.
But Law's being forced to submit to the standards of the secular world in the most Catholic metropolitan area in the nation is as much a cultural sea change as a legal one. It is the latest and most dramatic example of how much the deference traditionally shown the Catholic Church has eroded.
The cardinal finds himself embattled not simply because of his handling of miscreant priests like Geoghan, but becausethose with power in the secular world, most of them Catholic, have deemed it necessary and acceptable to delve into areas that local custom long treated as off-limits.
Prosecutors, judges, and politicians who once looked the other way when it came to the church's dirty laundry are now holding the cardinal and other church leaders to a higher standard.
The decline of deference has occurred throughout the United States, but it has been most dramatic in Boston, where the church is a powerful institution in the only major metropolitan area where Catholics make up more than half the population.
Most of these secular authority figures are the children, grandchildren, or great-grandchildren of immigrants who owed much to the church for giving them a foothold and a place in the New World.

priests ''as separate from the rest of us, as special people, as holy people deserving our respect.'' But his life experience changed those views.
In 2000, when Burke's office brought charges against Christopher Reardon, a lay worker who pleaded guilty to raping and molesting children, ''the church was less than forthcoming, to put it mildly,'' said Burke.
''But what really struck me, in communications with the archdiocese, was that there was never any concern shown for the victims. Not the slightest nod of concern for these young people whose lives were turned upside down by this abuse,'' he said.
The inability of church leaders to sympathize with the victims led Burke to conclude that the bishops were out of touch. Reilly came to the same conclusion as he read Law's ''Godprovisions in this area.''
Reilly says he has not ruled out bringing charges against Law and other church leaders.
Eight years ago, before it was fashionable, Coakley aggressively prosecuted a priest for sexual abuse. Although she lost the case, her willingness to pursue it was part of the process of challenging the prevailing attitude that priests didn't do this sort of thing.
Coakley grew up in North Adams, went to Mass at St. Joseph's Church, and to class at St. Joseph's School. Her father was a daily communicant. Her two sisters went to Catholic colleges. She sang in the choir. She sensed early on that women weren't equals in the church, but ''in general, I have fond memories of my growing up in the church.''
Coakley said the idea of priests sexually

abusing children didn't enter her consciousness until she was in her 30s, when she began prosecuting sexual abusers.
''People expect the guy to be drooling, lurking around in a trench coat. But when I started doing these cases, it became obvious that most abusers are caretakers, respectable people who use that respectability as a cover to carry out their abuse. There was an aura around priests that protected them, and that protection extended to sexual abusers,'' she said.
In 1993, Coakley prosecuted a priest, the Rev. Paul Manning, for sexually abusing an 11-year-old boy in a Woburn rectory. The victim recanted, but Coakley pressed ahead, in part because Manning's chief accuser was a credible witness - another priest, the Rev. Paul Sughrue.
She lost the case, but looks back at itnow as part of an educational process for her, the public, and the church. Despite his acquittal, Manning was removed from ministry by the archdiocese. Coakley said attitudes have changed dramatically in the eight years since she unsuccessfully prosecuted Manning.
''I think juries are more willing to convict,'' she said.
Judges also more willing
to issue tough sentences
Judges are more willing to mete out severe punishment, too.
When a Middlesex County jury in February convicted Geoghan of squeezing the buttocks of a 10-year-old boy at a public swimming pool, the indecent assault charge involved was one of the less egregious acts of abuse he was alleged to have carried out over the years. But Judge Sandra Hamlin stunned some legal observers by handing down a 10-year sentence, the maximum allowed.
That sentence was

the past on Roman Catholic judges and attorneys protecting the diocese and clerics is gone,'' the report said.
That warning came true in the person of Judge Sweeney, a Springfield native who spent 16 years in Catholic schools, the same amount of time she has spent on the bench. Last year, Sweeney decided the public interest outweighed the church's traditional First Amendment defense, siding with a motion by the Globe to unseal Geoghan's file, opening some 10,000 pages of internal church records which fueled the unfolding scandal when they were made public in January.
And when the archdiocese reneged on paying Geoghan's victims, Sweeney stunned Law's lawyers by ordering his deposition, saying the cardinal was no different than anybody else.
Abuse was hidden
from public view
The deference shown by Massachusetts lawmakers, three-quartersof them Catholic, helped create a system by which predators like Geoghan could sexually abuse children with impunity, shielded by an archdiocese that had a strong incentive, and was within its legal rights, to hide the abuse from public view.
Reilly said the refusal of Massachusetts legislators to include clergy in a bill requiring police officers, teachers, doctors, and social workers to report suspected child abuse that became law in 1983 was a disastrous mistake. On May 3, Massachusetts joined 28 other states that make clergy mandated reporters. Reilly said he wonders how many children might have been left unharmed if the law had been implemented two decades ago.
Marian Walsh, a state senator from West Roxbury, may have been the cardinal's favorite lawmaker. But, after the scandal broke in

January, she filed a bill that would make the way Law handled abusive priests a crime. The bill, still pending, would punish supervisors who knowingly expose children to sexual abuse.
Walsh's grandparents arrived from Ireland with little more than a steamer trunk. They worked hard to send her father to Boston College. He went on to become an obstetrician. Her mother got two degrees from Catholic colleges. The church was the family's anchor.
''Their faith was important to my parents as a couple,'' Walsh said. ''They went on retreats. They tried hard to live their lives according to the basic tenets of the church, and my parents sacrificed a lot for the church.''
Walsh had long been an admirer of Law, especially for his outspoken opposition to abortion and his workfor social justice. Although some Catholic legislators were opposed to abortion, Walsh was one of the few who also sided with Law in opposing the death penalty. But she was furious when she read of what she called Law's dishonesty in handling Geoghan and other sexually abusive priests. She felt betrayed.
''I never thought that a leading facilitator for child abuse would be the church, where the church would supply the victims and hide the perpetrators,'' she said.
''I understand why pedophiles do what they do. I still can't understand, I still can't appreciate, how the church could do this, how sophisticated and how diabolical this was. And how the cardinal could preside over it.''
After the Shanley documents were made public, Walsh became the first state lawmaker to openly call

Instead, he made a forced landing in an open field along Craig Shop Road in Weyers Cave.The plane only suffered minor damage and no one on the ground was injured. Two nearby farmers responded to the scene of the crash very quickly after they saw the plane coming in too low.__________Two people are thankfully alright after the plane they were flying went down just outside of the Shenandoah Valley Regional Airport on Tuesday afternoon.According to Sgt. Sean Simmons, with Virginia State Police,the plane suffered a power failure and a flight instructor from Blue Ridge Aviation maintained control of the craft to crash land it before it could return to the airport where it had departed from.Farmers nearby saw the plane coming in too low and told WHSV they were startled to see it come close to a power line on the way down.The propeller was bent and landing gear was damaged on one side when the plane hit the ground in a field at 12:46 p.m. No pieces were broken off of the craft.The flight instructor and his student were uninjured.The instructor would not provide his account of what happened in the flight.

The throttle and mixture controls were in the full forward position. The magneto switch was in the both position.The engine and propeller remained attached to the airframe. One propeller blade was bent aft at mid-blade, and the other blade was straight. There was no rotational scoring, gouges or scrapes on the propeller blades. The spinner dome was crushed by tree contact and tree bark was impacted into the propeller hub. The engine was clean and free of debris. The starter, left magneto, and carburetor, were all fractured off due to impact forces. Thumb compression was establishedon all cylinders and a lighted boroscope was used to examine all pistons and valves with no anomalies noted. Valve train continuity was established to by rotating the propeller and observing the gears in the rear accessory case, and rocker arms moving.The two seat, high-wing, fixed tailwheel airplane, was manufactured in 1946. It was powered by a Continental O-200-A, 100-hp engine, equipped with a McCauley two-blade fixed-pitch propeller. The last annual inspection was completed on September 29, 2017. At the time of the accident, the airframe total time was 3,473.79 hours.

a cathode within the solution and not contacting the stent and coupling an anode to the stent. When an electric voltage is provided between the anode and the cathode, the stent is caused to lose portions of its outer surface when the elements forming the stent are driven into solution and carried to the cathode for deposition upon the cathode. In essence, such electrolytic polishing is the reverse of commonly used electrical plating processes with material from the surface of the stent being removed rather than added to the stent. The rougher surfaces of the stent are more readily driven into solution and hence removed from the surfaces of the stent, smoothing the surfaces of the stent somewhat.
Because the surfaces of the stent forming the inner diameter ofthe stent benefit from a high degree of polishing, one known technique is to form the cathode as a thin wire passing along a central axis of the stent entirely through the stent from one end to the other, but without physically contacting the stent. When a voltage is provided between the cathode wire passing along the central axis of the stent and the stent itself, the inner surfaces of the stent are provided with the greatest electric field density and hence are the surfaces which are most polished during this process. While typically more effective than chemical etching, electrolytic polishing also fails to provide a sufficiently finely polished stent to significantly discourage thrombus and restenosis adjacent surfaces of the stent.
Accordingly, a need exists for a method and

and an outer diameter of the stent. Each segment includes an outer surface coextensive with the outer diameter of the stent and an inner surface coextensive with the inner diameter of the stent. Each segment also includes lateral surfaces extending between the inner surface and the outer surface which can either be a leading surface on an upstream side of the segment, a trailing surface on a downstream side of the segment, or a lateral surface generally aligned axially with the stent.
The inner surface of each segment of the stent is extensively streamlined by the polishing method and apparatus of this invention to minimize disruption of bodily fluid flow through the body lumen. Specifically, the inner surface includes an inner leading edge and an inner trailing edge borderingthe fluid abrasive media is forced to pass only through the interior of the stent and adjacent the surfaces forming the inner diameter of the stent. As the fluid abrasive media passes through the cylindrical chamber and adjacent the surfaces forming the inner diameter of the stent, the surfaces forming the inner diameter of the stent are polished to a level of smoothness determined by the particle size of the abrasive media, the amount of time which the abrasive media flows past the surfaces of the stent and other factors known in the honing arts.
When it is desired that the outer diameter of the stent be polished, a stent exterior polishing fixture is provided having a cylindrical recess located therein with slanted bores leading from a top and

bottom of the fixture to the cylindrical recess. The cylindrical recess has a diameter greater than the diameter of the outer diameter of the stent. A shaft is located within the cylindrical recess with a central axis of the shaft aligned with a central axis of the cylindrical recess. The shaft has a diameter similar to the inner diameter of the stent. The stent is placed on the shaft and within the cylindrical recess so that abrasive media flowing through the slanted bores and into the cylindrical recess are precluded from flowing adjacent the surfaces forming the inner diameter of the stent, but rather flow adjacent surfaces forming the outer diameter of the stent for polishing of the outer diameter of the stent.
In utilizing the various fixtures forsupporting the stent during this polishing process, the stent is preferably initially provided with, radially-non-expandable cylindrical support ends adjacent each end of the stent. These cylindrical support ends are located along with the stent within the cylindrical chamber or cylindrical recess of one of the fixtures and provide additional support for the stent during the polishing process. The support ends prevent collapse of the stent and excessive polishing of ends of the stent during the polishing process.
The polishing process can be additionally facilitated by ultrasonically vibrating the abrasive media and elevating the pressure of the abrasive media as it flows through the fixture and adjacent surfaces of the stent. If it is desired that the stent be provided with a streamlined contour which is not biased in any

Further mitigating against Mental Health's contention, the testimony indicated that it had been possible in the recent past to open up additional beds when the need arose. No effort was made in this direction on Daniel's behalf.
In light of the evidence, we are of the opinion that the juvenile court's decision is supported by the evidence. It is affirmed.
AFFIRMED.
BRADLEY and HOLMES, JJ., concur.
Metro Vancouver introduced Metro Vancouver Regional District Non-Road Diesel Engine Emission Regulation Bylaw No. 1161 in 2012 to manage older, higher polluting non-road diesel engines as one of the prioritized initiatives in an overall program to improve air quality in the region.
Fine particles produced by the combustion of diesel are the primary air quality threat to human health in Metro Vancouver, and they also contribute to climate change and reduced visibility. Fine particles from diesel combustion have been associated with both short and long-term health effects, from aggravated asthma to heart and respiratory diseases.

discontinuity. Thus, we are bound to examine all the circumstances.
There is overwhelming evidence indicating that Héctor L. González, the new owner, was negotiating with the former owners the possibility of purchasing El Mundo as an ongoing concern before it closed down at the end of August 1987. He also had frequent and comprehensive meetings with union representatives prior to the November *128 8, 1987 purchase agreement where they were lead to believe that the newspaper was to continue operating with union employees.
As soon as the assets were purchased by the new owner, and the premises leased, El Mundo Corp. commenced recruiting and training personnel. According to the stipulated facts, between November 9 and December 16, 1987, twenty supervisors, twenty area supervisors and thirty-six employees were hired by ElUnion, as the exclusive collective bargaining representative of its unit employees with respect to rates of pay, wages, hours of employment, and other terms and conditions of employment, and embody in a written signed agreement any understanding reached with the Union regarding these employees.
Included in the bargaining unit are: All employees employed by respondent in the Administration, Maintenance, Editorial, Production, and Circulation Departments.
Excluded from the bargaining unit are: Publisher and Secretary, Executive Vice-President and General Manager and Secretary, Administrative Assistants to the Executive Vice-President and General Manager, Director of Management and Information Center, Assistant General Manager, Industrial Relations and Personnel Director and Secretary, Assistant to the Industrial Relations and Personnel Director, Recruiting Officer Treasurer and Comptroller and Secretary, Assistant Comptroller, Internal Auditor's Supervisor, Credit Manager, Accounting Supervisor, Accounting

on the sofa having tea, a large homely-looking woman with gray
hair, a high brow, and prominent white teeth. She had unfastened her
bonnet strings, and a clean white handkerchief lay spread out on her
lap. When Elsmere was introduced to her, she got up, and said with some
effusiveness, and a distinct Westmoreland accent:
'Very pleased indeed to make your acquaintance, sir,' while she enclosed
his fingers in a capacious hand.
Mrs. Leyburn, looking fidgety and uncomfortable, was sitting near
her, and Catherine, the only member of the party who showed no sign of
embarrassment when Robert entered was superintending her aunt's tea and
talking busily the while.
Robert sat down at a little distance beside Agnes and Rose, who were
chattering together a little artificially and of set purpose, as it
seemed to him. But the aunt was notwas a sound behind on the cobbles outside the kitchen door.
'Yur feyther!' cried Jim between his teeth. 'Gang up-stairs wi' ye.'
And he pointed to a door in the wall concealing a staircase to the upper
story.
She sprang up, looked at the door and at him irresolutely, and then
stayed where she was, gaunt, pale, fever-eyed, the wreck and ghost of
her old self.
The steps neared. There was a rough voice in the kitchen, a surprised
exclamation, and her father had pushed past his brother into the room.
John Backhouse no sooner saw his daughter than his dull weather-beaten
face flamed into violence. With an oath he raised the heavy whip he held
in his hand and flung himself toward her.

their honeymoon had been spent at Oxford.
It was a week before the opening of the October term, but many of the
senior members of the University were already in residence, and the
stagnation of the Long Vacation was over. Langham was up; so was Mr.
Grey, and many another old friend of Robert's. The bride and bridegroom
were much feted in a quiet way. They dined in many common rooms
and bursaries; they were invited to many luncheons, where at the
superabundance of food and the length of time spent upon it made the
Puritan Catherine uncomfortable; and Langham, devoted himself to taking
the wife through colleges and gardens, schools and Bodleian, in most
orthodox fashion, indemnifying himself afterward for the sense of
constraint her presence imposed upon him by a talk and a smoke with
Robert.
He could notfew green
fields, or of the confidence which had soothed his last moments, that it
would be well there with his wife and children, far from the hubbub of
the world.
But Rose and her whims were not facts which could be put aside. They
would have to be grappled with, probably humored. As Catherine strolled
out into the garden, listening alternately for Robert and for the
carriage, she told herself that it would be a difficult visit. And the
presence of Mr. Langham would certainly not diminish its difficulty. The
mere thought of him set the wife's young form stiffening. A cold breath
seemed to blow from Edward Langham, which chilled Catherine's whole
being. Why was Robert so fond of him?
But the more Langham cut himself off from the world, the more Robert
clung to him in his wistful

them. But so examined, they fall into place, become
explicable and rational; such material as science can make full use
of. The doctrine of the Divinity of Christ, Christian eschatology, and
Christian views of prophecy will also have found _their_ place in a
sound historical scheme!'
'It is discreditable now for the man of intelligence to refuse to read
his Livy in the light of his Mommsen. My object has been to help in
making it discreditable to him to refuse to read his Christian documents
in the light of a trained scientific criticism. We shall have made some
positive advance in rationality when the man who is perfectly capable
of dealing sanely with legend in one connection, and, in another, will
insist on confounding it with history proper, cannot do so any longer
without losing caste, without falling _ipsocapable than any one else of breaking through the Squire's
haughty reserve.
As they turned down the newly-worn track to the cottages, whereof the
weekly progress had been for some time the delight of Elsmere's heart,
they met old Meyrick in his pony-carriage. He stopped his shambling
steed at sight of the pair. The bleared, spectacled eyes lit up, the
prim mouth broke into a smile which matched the April sun.
'Well Squire; well, Mr. Elsmere, are you going to have a look at
those places? Never saw such palaces. I only hope I may end my days in
anything so good. Will you give me a lease, Squire?'
Mr. Wendover's deep eyes took a momentary survey, half indulgent,
half contemptuous, of the naive, awkward-looking old creature in the
pony-carriage. Then without troubling to find an answer he went his

problem, the conversation always ended with a deflection and denial. As I write this paragraph, the reports of drug abuse are spreading across the cable news channels. The instant I heard of his death this afternoon, I had a sinking feeling that prescription drugs would play a key part.
The closest we ever became, perhaps, was when Michael needed a book to sell primarily as a concert souvenir. It would contain pictures for his fans but there would also be a text consisting of short fables. I sat with him for hours while he dreamily wove Aesop-like tales about animals, mixed with words about music and his love of all things musical. This project became Dancing the Dream after I pulled the text together for him, acting strictly asa friend. It was this time together that convinced me of the modus vivendi Michael had devised for himself: to counter the tidal wave of stress that accompanies mega-stardom, he built a private retreat in a fantasy world where pink clouds veiled inner anguish and Peter Pan was a hero, not a pathology.
This compromise with reality gradually became unsustainable. He went to strange lengths to preserve it. Unbounded privilege became another toxic force in his undoing. What began as idiosyncrasy, shyness, and vulnerability was ravaged by obsessions over health, paranoia over security, and an isolation that grew more and more unhealthy. When Michael passed me the music for that last song, the one sitting by my bedside waiting for the right words, the procedure for getting the CD

After watching this clip, and realizing now that Coach Grant's knowledge of Kosta's health is as void as everyone else's, I just hope no one undercuts him like Alabama did to Josh. Kosta's video above shows a player moving at will against truly smaller inferior players, but when he lands he frequently lands on one foot while the other leg is flailing around. A serious D1 size defender could cause a very awkward landing for Kostas. I hope he sticks to wide open dunks. Kendall Pollard he is not. His lower body strength will be one of the first things the trainers will work on.
This guy has one humongeous drop-step! Without a double team, he'll be a bear to guard.
No question Roger Brown, followed by Don May, butposted here.
Basically UD posted a few pics to twitter on eclipse day after it appeared they had their first team meeting when everyone had gotten back from school. There was a pic of Kostas standing upright and without any visible brace on his knee. My guess it is nothing serious since CAG seems in no hurry to get it evaluated based on his interview with Archdeacon. Hopefully will get some more info once Jablonski gets back from his vacation in Europe.
FYI: The tweet has since been deleted after people zoomed in on a team rules sheet Darrell was holding and mocked a couple of the rules.
Was visiting campus last week and did see Kostas. He was using crutches but they looked to be more forearm rather than underarm
