description of food. The choice morsel had been judiciously separated from the adjoining and less worthy parts of the beast, and, enveloped in the hairy coating provided by nature, it had duly undergone the heat of the customary subterraneous oven, and was now laid before its proprietors in all the culinary glory of the prairies. So far as richness, delicacy, and wildness of flavour, and substantial nourishment were concerned, the viand might well have claimed a decided superiority over the meretricious cookery and laboured compounds of the most renowned artist; though the service of the dainty was certainly achieved in a manner far from artificial. It would appear that the two fortunate mortals, to whose happy lot it fell to enjoy a meal in which health and appetitelent so keen a relish to the exquisite food of the American deserts, were far from being insensible of the advantage they possessed. The one, to whose knowledge in the culinary art the other was indebted for his banquet, seemed the least disposed of the two to profit by his own skill. He ate, it is true, and with a relish; but it was always with the moderation with which age is apt to temper the appetite. No such restraint, however, was imposed on the inclination of his companion. In the very flower of his days and in the vigour of manhood, the homage that he paid to the work of his more aged friend's hands was of the most profound and engrossing character. As one delicious morsel succeeded

Tenenbaum, who is currently under house arrest, was cooperating fully. Police spokeswoman Linda Menuhin said she could not comment on an ongoing investigation. According to the Haaretz newspaper, the teenager's sudden silence was also prompted by the fear of massive civil law suits from computer companies in the United States whose business may have been damaged by his activities. Tenenbaum allegedly hacked into Pentagon computers and then showed others - including two Cloverdale teens - his tricks. The other hackers then apparently breached other security systems on their own, authorities said. Capt. Peter Karimba, a military officer in Gisenyi, 60 miles northwest of Kigali, said 30 to 40 rebels attacked a church-run health center at 3 a.m., killing three civilians and taking seven nuns hostage. Two hours later, 100 rebels attacked Kanama, 10miles to the east, burning the local government building and killing 17 civilians, he said. Six rebels were killed and eight Rwandan soldiers were injured in clashes that followed, Karimba said. The attack, at least the fourth by Hutu rebels in the Gisenyi area this year, comes two days before President Clinton's visit to Rwanda. For security reasons, Clinton will not leave the Kigali airport during a two-hour stopover.

feminists today have adopted them as icons of women's power. I decided to replicate the costumes and try them out on a model, who would imitate the poses of the figures in art. The tailoring of Egyptian garments had suggested to me that the dresses in Minoan art were somewhat realistically portrayed, and I believed that the closer my reconstructions conformed to the representations in art, the closer they would be to the way Minoans dressed. Bernice Jones, an adjunct assistant professor of Art History at Queens College, New York, is writing a book on Minoan costume with the support of a fellowship from the Institute for Aegean Prehistory. She wishes to thank Valerie Bealle, Deniz Oktay, Maria Carvalho, Lora Grisafi, and Massimo Gammacurta.

A neutral environment paired with insulin injections can develop the capacity to elicit glycemic changes. However, both conditioned hypoglycemia and conditioned hyperglycemia have been reported under apparently similar circumstances. The present study examined conditioned glycemic changes as a function of the number of conditioning trials and the novelty of the conditioning environment. Adult, male Wistar rats were injected with either insulin or physiological saline every second day, in either a novel or a familiar environment. On the test day, all rats were injected with saline and blood was collected 20 minutes later for determination of glucose levels. In rats given insulin in the novel environment, conditioned hypoglycemia was observed after two trials but was

The Karl G. Jansky Lectureship is an honor established by the trustees of Associated Universities, Inc., to recognize outstanding contributions to the advancement of radio astronomy. First awarded in 1966, it is named in honor of the man who, in 1932, first detected radio waves from a cosmic source. Karl Jansky's discovery of radio waves from the central region of our Milky Way Galaxy started the science of radio astronomy. The recipient of this award will present the annual Karl G. Jansky Lecture in Charlottesville, Virginia and in Socorro, New Mexico. The public lecture will be astronomical in nature. Professional astronomical symposia in NRAO facilities will be conducted prior to the evening lectures. More detailed information about the nomination process can be found by viewing the Jansky Lectureship Charter.

Today there are five separate trails totaling over 60 miles and they are administered by the Natchez Trace Parkway. White River NWR, was established in 1935 for the protection of migratory birds. The refuge lies in the floodplain of the White River near where it meets the mighty Mississippi River.

The Confederate victory at Brices Cross Roads was a significant victory for Major General Nathan Bedford Forrest, but its long term effect on the war proved costly for the Confederates. Brices Cross Roads is an excellent example of winning the battle, but losing the war.

So as not to alienate fans of the series, a large amount of aesthetic material was incorporated, while also adjusting it to make it accessible to newcomers. Increased budget and production facilities enabled the use of filming styles associated with live action films and a higher animation quality than the series. Arabic thematic elements were incorporated to contrast against the series, which entailed Watanabe traveling to Morocco for research. The Arabic atmosphere was also used in Kanno's music. The film was produced by studios Sunrise, which had previously developed the original series, Bones, a later studio founded by former Sunrise staff, and Bandai Visual. Cowboy

This inconsistency has been a problem in motion picture sound systems since the introduction of color motion picture film. To broaden the spectral absorption of the sound track while controlling the noise problem, sound systems of the prior art have utilized coatings on the optical sound track which are responsive to infrared energy. For example, sound track images have been produced with silver or silver compounds, either by a completely separate redevelopment step, or by means of edge treatment of the film at some stage of the processing. The film is passed through a sound-track applicator that deposits a viscous developer or a sulfide solution on the sound track to produce a metallic silver or silver sulfide image.

It was not unusual for Pultoo to bring friends for dinner, and these two often arrived at my grandfather's house in the late afternoon on a Friday, and stayed for dinner with only a little urging, only one diffident invitation. They lived in lodgings, and I believe they enjoyed the chance of a family dinner. My grandfather did not really care who came for dinner; my grandmother, on the other hand, liked to be given the chance to offer an invitation. 'Can we find space for these two?' Pultoo said, when he came back from washing, his face wet and glistening, his white teeth shining. 'I'm sure there is space.' My grandmother muttered something, and wentto sing their songs and read their poetry and show their paintings.' 'They needn't know anything about it,' Altaf said, with bravado. 'Oh, yes?'

'Well,' Altaf said, 'if they already know, we might as well continue with it.' 'Oh, yes,' Amit said. 'We might as well continue.' This conversation took place just when memories of previous suppressions were fading, and people like Altaf and Amit were making their plans.

He had, instead, started to study to be a lawyer, which was the profession he held for the rest of his life. My grandfather took him under his wing, as the saying goes. He introduced him to his colleagues and friends, to people like Mr Khandekar-nana and the rest; he found him a set of chambers and passed on clients to my father, shaking his head when Father took on pro bono work; he gave him useful professional advice, which my father took with a good grace.

expelled. However, as soon as Jewish people acquired some property, they were again plundered and driven away. These episodes thenceforth constituted a large portion of the medieval history of the German Jews. Emperor Wenceslaus was most expert in transferring to his own coffers gold from the pockets of rich Jews. He made compacts with many cities, estates, and princes whereby he annulled all outstanding debts to the Jews in return for a certain sum paid to him. Emperor Wenceslaus declared that anyone helping Jews with the collection of their debts, in spite of this annulment, would be dealt with as a robber and peacebreaker, and be forced to make restitution. This decree, which for years allegedly injured the public credit, is said to have impoverished thousands of Jewishfamilies during the close of the 14th century. The 15th century did not bring any amelioration. What happened in the time of the Crusades happened again. The war upon the Hussites became the signal for renewed persecution of Jews. The Jews of Austria, Bohemia, Moravia, and Silesia passed through all the terrors of death, forced baptism, or voluntary self-immolation for the sake of their faith. When the Hussites made peace with the Church, the Pope sent the Franciscan friar John of Capistrano to win the renegades back into the fold and inspire them with loathing for heresy and unbelief; 41 martyrs were burned in Wrocław alone, and all Jews were forever banished from Silesia. The Franciscan friar Bernardine of Feltre brought a similar fate upon the communities in southern

The engine is located behind the propeller, thereby increasing the distance from the support and, therefore, increasing the cantilevered weight to the user's arm. Riding a modern bicycle with only one hand is dangerous as two brake handles are provided for safety in traffic. Sitting in and operating a wheelchair requires both hands for steering. The engine would interfere with sitting in the wheelchair. In a canoe or kayak, the engine would interfere with both hands and arms being required for the paddles. An engine speed of 18,000 to 20,000 rpm is dangerous as propellers can and do shatter, which may cause serious injuries to the user and bystanders. Six pounds of thrust is low and insufficientfor overcoming inclines and soft snow with heavier users, and slow in watercraft against even a light wind. The propulsion support unit of U.S. Pat.

Bingo-type games are played with predefined bingo cards that each include a number of bingo game designations such as Arabic numerals randomly arranged in a desired manner, commonly in a grid. The bingo game designations on the cards are selected from a pool of available game designations. In more traditional bingo-type games, the cards are physically printed on paper or other suitable material. These printed cards are purchased by players prior to the start of a game. Once all the cards for a game have been purchased, game designations from the available pool of game designations are selected at random. As the game designations are selected and announced in the game, the players match the randomly selected game designations with the designations printed on their respective card orYet it is essential that the game retain the basic characteristics of a bingo-type game, namely that the game is played with predefined cards or card representations which the players match or daub against randomly generated game designations, and the game winner is the first player to match the designations in a predetermined winning pattern on his or her card or card representation.

gloom of night.Thy language at this distant moment shows How much the country to the conqueror owes;Expressive, energetic, and refined,In sparkles with the gems he left behind;He brought thy land a blessing when he came,He found thee savage, and he left thee tame; Taught thee to clothe thy pink'd and painted hide,And grac'd the figure with a soldier's pride;He sow'd the seeds of order where he went,Improv'd thee far beyond his own intent,And, while he ruled thee by his sword alone,Made thee at last a warrior like his own.Religion, if in heavenly truths attired,Needs only to be seen to be admired;But thine, as dark as witcheries of the night,Was form'd to harden hearts and shock the sight;Thy druids struck the well-hung harps they boreWith fingers deeply dyed init fresh in mind,Some twigs of that old scourge are left behind.Thy soldiery, the pope's well managed pack,Were train'd beneath his lash, and knew the smack,And, when he laid them on the scent of blood,Would hunt a Saracen through fire and flood.Lavish of life, to win an empty tomb,That proved a mint of wealth, a mine to Rome.They left their bones beneath unfriendly skies,His worthless absolution all the prize.Thou wast the veriest slave in days of yoreThat ever dragg'd a chain or tugg'd an oar;Thy monarchs arbitrary, fierce, unjust,Themselves the slaves of bigotry or lust,Disdain'd thy counsels, only in distressFound thee a goodly spunge for power to pressThy chiefs, the lords of many a petty fee,Provoked and harass'd, in return plagued thee;Call'd thee away from peaceable employ,Domestic happiness

and rural joy,To waste thy life in arms, or lay it downIn causeless feuds and bickerings of their own.Thy parliaments adored, on bended knees.The sovereignty they were convened to please;Whate'er was ask'd, too timid to resist,Complied with, and were graciously dismiss'd;And if some Spartan soul a doubt express'd, And, blushing at the tameness of the rest,Dared to suppose the subject had a choice, He was a traitor by the general voice.Oh slave! with powers thou didst not dare exert,Verse cannot stoop so low as thy desert;It shakes the sides of splenetic disdain,Thou self-entitled ruler of the main,To trace thee to the date, when yon fair sea,That clips thy shores, had no such charms for thee;When other nations flew from coast to coast,And thou hadst neither fleet nor flaghis ease.But rude at first, and not with easy slopeReceding wide, they pressed against the ribs,And bruised the side, and elevated highTaught the raised shoulders to invade the ears.Long time elapsed or ere our rugged siresComplained, though incommodiously pent in,And ill at ease behind. The ladies first'Gan murmur, as became the softer sex.Ingenious fancy, never better pleasedThan when employed to accommodate the fair, Heard the sweet moan with pity, and devised The soft settee; one elbow at each end,And in the midst an elbow, it receivedUnited yet divided, twain at once.So sit two kings of Brentford on one throne;And so two citizens who take the airClose packed and smiling in a chaise and one.But relaxation of the languid frameBy soft recumbency of outstretched limbs,Was bliss reserved for happier

days; - so slowThe growth of what is excellent, so hardTo attain perfection in this nether world.Thus first necessity invented stools,Convenience next suggested elbow chairs,And luxury the accomplished sofa last. The nurse sleeps sweetly, hired to watch the sickWhom snoring she disturbs. As sweetly heWho quits the coach-box at the midnight hourTo sleep within the carriage more secure,His legs depending at the open door.Sweet sleep enjoys the curate in his desk,The tedious rector drawling o'er his head,And sweet the clerk below: but neither sleepOf lazy nurse, who snores the sick man dead,Nor his who quits the box at midnight hourTo slumber in the carriage more secure,Nor sleep enjoyed by curate in his desk,Nor yet the dozings of the clerk are sweet,Compared with the repose the sofa yields. Oh may Iswerv'd not from the track,The sturdy swain diminish'd to a boy!Here Ouse, slow winding through a level Of spacious meads with cattle sprinkled o'er,Conducts the eye along its sinuous courseDelighted. There, fast rooted in his bank,Stand, never overlook'd, our fav'rite elms,That screen the herdsman's solitary hut;While far beyond, and overthwart the streamThat, as with molten glass, inlays the vale,The sloping land recedes into the clouds;Displaying on its varied side the graceOf hedge-row beauties numberless, square tow'r,Tall spire, from which the sound of cheerful bellsJust undulates upon the list'ning ear,Groves, heaths and smoking villages remote.Scenes must be beautiful, which, daily view'd,Please daily, and whose novelty survivesLong knowledge and the scrutiny of years.Praise justly due to those that I describe.

By ceaseless action, all that is subsists.Constant rotation of the unwearied wheelThat nature rides upon, maintains her health,Her beauty, her fertility. She dreadsAn instant's pause, and lives but while she moves.Its own resolvency upholds the world.Winds from all quarters agitate the air,And fit the limpid elements for use,Else noxious: oceans, rivers, lakes, and streamsBy restless undulation. Even the oakThrives by the rude concussion of the storm;He seems indeed indignant, and to feelThe impression of the blast with proud disdain, Frowning as if in his unconsciousprompt to undertake, And not soon spent, though in an arduous task;The powers of fancy and strong thought are theirs;Even age itself seems privileged in themWith clear exemption from its own defects.A sparkling eye beneath a wrinkled front The veteran shows, and gracing a gray beardWith youthful smiles, descends towards the graveSprightly, and old almost without decay. Like a coy maiden, ease, when courted most,Farthest retires, - an idol, at whose shrine Who oftenest sacrifice are favoured least.The love of nature, and the scenes she draws Is nature's dictate. Strange! there should be foundWho self-imprisoned in their proud saloons,Renounce the odours of the open fieldFor the unscented fictions of the loom;Who satisfied with only pencilled scenes,Prefer to the performance of a God The inferior wonders of an artist's hand.Lovely

indeed the mimic works of art,But nature's works far lovelier. I admire -None more admires the painter's magic skill, Who shows me that which I shall never see,Conveys a distant country into mine, And throws Italian light on English walls.But imitative strokes can do no moreThan please the eye, sweet nature every sense.The air salubrious of her lofty hills,The cheering fragrance of her dewy valesAnd music of her woods, - no works of manMay rival these; these all bespeak a powerPeculiar, and exclusively her own.Beneath the open sky she spreads the feast;'Tis free to all, - 'tis every day renewed,Who scorns it, starves deservedly at home. He does not scorn it, who imprisoned longIn some unwholesome dungeon, and a preyTo sallow sickness, which the vapours dankAnd clammy ofhis dark abode have bred,Escapes at last to liberty and light.His cheek recovers soon its healthful hue, His eye relumines its extinguished fires,He walks, he leaps, he runs, - is winged with joy. And riots in the sweets of every breeze.He does not scorn it, who has long endured A fever's agonies, and fed on drugs.Nor yet the mariner, his blood inflamed With acrid salts; his very heart athirstTo gaze at nature in her green array.Upon the ship's tall side he stands, possessedWith visions prompted by intense desire;Fair fields appear below, such as he left Far distant, such as he would die to find, -He seeks them headlong, and is seen no more. The spleen is seldom felt where Flora reigns; The lowering eye, the petulance, the frown,And sullen

satin trimmedWith lace, and hat with splendid riband bound.A serving-maid was she, and fell in loveWith one who left her, went to sea and died.Her fancy followed him through foaming wavesTo distant shores, and she would sit and weepAt what a sailor suffers; fancy too,Delusive most where warmest wishes are,Would oft anticipate his glad return,And dream of transports she was not to know.She heard the doleful tidings of his death,And never smiled again. And now she roams The dreary waste; there spends the livelong day.And there, unless when charity forbids,The livelong night. A tattered apron hides,Worn as a cloak, and hardly hides a gownMore tattered still; and both but ill concealA bosom heaved with never-ceasing sighs.She begs an idle pin of all she meets,And hoards them in herI see thee straying on the beach,And asking of the surge that bathes thy foot If ever it has washed our distant shore.I see thee weep, and thine are honest tears,A patriot's for his country. Thou art sadAt though of her forlorn and abject state,From which no power of thine can raise her up.Thus fancy paints thee, and though apt to err,Perhaps errs little, when she paints thee thus.She tells me too, that duly every mornThou climbst the mountain top, with eager eyeExploring far and wide the watery wasteFor sight of ship from England. Every speckSeen in the dim horizon, turns thee paleWith conflict of contending hopes and fears,But comes at last the dull and dusky eve,And sends thee to thy cabin well-prepared To dream all night of

frequent lapse, can hope no triumph thereBeyond th' achievement of successful flight.I do confess them nurseries of the arts,In which they flourish most; where, in the beamsOf warm encouragement, and in the eyeOf public note, they reach their perfect size.Such London is, by taste and wealth proclaim'dThe fairest capital of all the world,By riot and incontinence the worst.There, touch'd by Reynolds, a dull blank becomesA lucid mirror, in which Nature seesAll her reflected features. Bacon thereGives more than female beauty to a stone,And Chatham's eloquence to marble lips.Nor does the chisel occupy alone The powers of sculpture, but the style as much; Each province of her heart her equal care.With nice incision of her guided steelShe ploughs a brazen field, and clothes a soilSo sterile with what charmsnor of good reportThat she is slack in discipline, - more promptTo avenge than to prevent the breach of law.That she is rigid in denouncing deathOn petty robbers, and indulges lifeAnd liberty, and oft-times honour too To peculators of the public gold.That thieves at home must hang; but he that putsInto his overgorged and bloated purseThe wealth of Indian provinces, escapes,Nor is it well, nor can it come to good,That through profane and infidel contemptOf holy writ, she has presumed to annulAnd abrogate, as roundly as she may,The total ordinance and will of God; Advancing fashion to the post of truth,And centring all authority in modesAnd customs of her own, till Sabbath ritesHave dwindled into unrespected forms, And knees and hassocks are well-nigh divorced.

man's obdurate heart,It does not feel for man. The natural bondOf brotherhood is severed as the flax That falls asunder at the touch of fire.He finds his fellow guilty of a skinNot coloured like his own, and having powerTo enforce the wrong, for such a worthy causeDooms and devotes him as his lawful prey.Lands intersected by a narrow frithAbhor each other. Mountains interposed,Make enemies of nations who had elseLike kindred drops been mingled into one.Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys;And worse than all, and most to be deploredAs human nature's broadest, foulest blot, Chains him, and tasks him, and exacts his sweatWith stripes, that mercy with a bleeding heartWeeps when she sees inflicted on a beast.Then what is man? And what man seeing this,And having human feelings,unforeseen releaseFrom all the rigours of restraint, enjoyThe terrors of the day that sets them free.Who then that has thee, would not hold thee fast,Freedom! whom they that lose thee, so regret,That even a judgement making way for thee,Seems in their eyes, a mercy, for thy sake. Such evil sin hath wrought; and such a flameKindled in heaven, that it burns down to earth,And in the furious inquest that it makesOn God's behalf, lays waste his fairest works.The very elements, though each be meantThe minister of man, to serve his wants,Conspire against him. With his breath, he drawsA plague into his blood, and cannot useLife's necessary means, but he must die. Storms rise to o'erwhelm him: or if stormy windsRise not, the waters of the deep shall rise,And needing

He springs his mines,And desolates a nation at a blast.Forth steps the spruce philosopher, and tellsOf homogeneal and discordant springsAnd principles; of causes, how they workBy necessary laws their sure effects;Of action and re-action. He has foundThe source of the disease that nature feels,And bids the world take heart and banish fear.Thou fool! will thy discovery of the causeSuspend the effect, or heal it? Has not GodStill wrought by means since first he made the world?And did he not of old employ his meansTo drown it? What is his creation lessThan a capacious reservoirtongue,And Wolfe's great name compatriot with his own.Farewell those honours, and farewell with themThe hope of such hereafter! They have fallen Each in his field of glory; one in arms,And one in council: Wolfe upon the lapOf smiling Victory that moment won,And Chatham heart-sick of his country’s shame!They made us many soldiers. Chatham stillConsulting England's happiness at home, Secured it by an unforgiving frown,If any wrong'd her. Wolfe, where’er he fought,Put so much of his heart into his act,That his example had a magnet's force,And all were swift to follow whom all loved.Those suns are set.

the watchman's lantern borrowing light,Finds a cold bed her only comfort left.Wives beggar husbands, husbands starve their wives,On Fortune's velvet altar offering upTheir last poor pittance. Fortune, most severeOf goddesses yet known, and costlier farThan all that held their routs in Juno;s heaven.So fare we in this prison-house, the world;And 'tis a fearful spectacle to seeSo many maniacs dancing in their chains.They gaze upon the links that hold them fastWith eyes of anguish, execrate their lot,Then shake them in despair, and dance again! Now basket up the family of plaguesThat waste our vitals; peculation, saleOf honour, perjury, corruption, fraudsBy forgery, by subterfuge of law,By tricks and lies as numerous and as keenAs the necessities their authors feel;Then cast them, closely bundled, every bratAt the right door. Profusion is thesire.Profusion unrestrain'd, with all that's baseIn character, has litter'd all the land,And bred, within the memory of no few,A priesthood such as Baal's was of old,A people such as never was till now.It is a hungry vice: it eats up all That gives society its beauty, strength,Convenience, and security, and use:Makes men mere vermin, worthy to be trapp'dAnd gibbeted, as fast as catchpole clawsCan seize the slippery prey: unties the knotOf union, and converts the sacred band,That holds mankind together, to a scourge.Profusion, deluging a state with lustsOf grossest nature and of worst effects,Prepares it for its ruin: hardens, blinds,And warps the consciences of public men,Till they can laugh at Virtue; mock the foolsThat trust them; and in the end disclose a faceThat would have shock'd Credulity herself,Unmask'd,

vouchsafing this their sole excuseSince all alike are selfish, why not they?This does Profusion, and the accursed causeOf such deep mischief has itself a cause. In colleges and halls, in ancient days,When learning, virtue, piety, and truthWere precious and inculcated with care,There dwelt a sage call'd Discipline. His head,Not yet by time completely silver'd o'er,Bespoke him past the bounds of freakish youth,But strong for service still, and unimpair'd.His eye was meek and gentle, and a smilePlay'd on his lips; and in his speech was heardPaternal sweetness, dignity, and love.The occupation dearest to his heartWas to encourage goodness. He would strokeThe head of modest and ingenuous worth,That blush'd at its own praise; and press the youthClose to his side that pleased him. Learning grewBeneath his care a thriving vigorous plant;Themind was well-inform'd, the passions heldSubordinate, and diligence was choice.If e'er it chanced, as sometimes chance it must,That one among so many overleap'dThe limits of control, his gentle eyeGrew stern, and darted a severe rebuke:His frown was full of terror, and his voiceShook the delinquent with such fits of aweAs left him not, till penitence had wonLost favour back again, and closed the breach.But Discipline, a faithful servant long,Declined at length into the vale of years:A palsy struck his arm; his sparkling eyeWas quench'd in rheums of age; his voice, unstrung,Grew tremulous, and moved derision moreThan reverence in perverse rebellious youth.So colleges and halls neglected muchTheir good old friend; and Discipline at length,O'erlook'd and unemploy'd, fell sick, and died.Then Study languish'd, Emulation slept,And Virtue fled. The schools became

a sceneOf solemn farce, where ignorance in stilts,His cap well lined with logic not his own,With parrot tongue perform'd the scholar's part,Proceeding soon a graduated dunce.Then Compromise had place, and ScrutinyBecame stone blind; Precedence went in truck,And he was competent whose purse was so.A dissolution of all bonds ensued;The curbs invented for the mulish mouthOf headstrong youth were broken; bars and boltsGrew rusty by disuse; and massy gatesForgot their office, opening with a touch;Till gowns at length are found mere masquerade,The tassell'd cap and the spruce band a jest,A mockery of the world! What need of theseFor gamesters, jockeys, brothellers impure,Spendthrifts, and booted sportsmen, oftener seenWith belted waist and pointers at their heelsThan in the bounds of duty? What was learn'd,If aught was learn'd in childhood, is forgot;Andsuch expense as pinches parents blue,And mortifies the liberal hand of love,Is squander'd in pursuit of idle sportsAnd vicious pleasures; buys the boy a nameThat sits a stigma on his father's house,And cleaves through life inseparably closeTo him that wears it. What can after-gamesOf riper joys, and commerce with the world,The lewd vain world, that must receive him soon,Add to such erudition, thus acquired,Where science and where virtue are profess'd?They may confirm his habits, rivet fastHis folly, but to spoil him is a taskThat bids defiance to the united powersOf fashion, dissipation, taverns, stews.Now blame we most the nurslings or the nurse?The children, crook'd, and twisted, and deform'd,Through want of care; or her whose winking eyeAnd slumbering oscitancy mars the brood?The nurse, no doubt. Regardless of her charge,She

needs herself correction; needs to learnThat it is dangerous sporting with the world,With things so sacred as a nation's trust,The nurture of her youth, her dearest pledge. All are not such. I had a brother once -Peace to the memory of a man of worth,A man of letters, and of manners too!Of manners sweet as Virtue always wears,When gay good-nature dresses her in smiles.He graced a college, in which order yetWas sacred; and was honour'd, loved, and weptBy more than one, themselves conspicuous there.Some minds are temper'd happily, and mix’dWith such ingredients of good sense and tasteOf what is excellent in man, they thirstWith such a zeal to be what they approve,That no restraints can circumscribe them moreThan they themselves by choice, for wisdom's sake.Nor can example hurt them;his dam? The country mourns,Mourns because every plague that can infestSociety, and that saps and worms the baseOf the edifice that Policy has raised,Swarms in all quarters; meets the eye, the ear,And suffocates the breath at every turn.Profusion breeds them; and the cause itselfOf that calamitous mischief has been found:Found too where most offensive, in the skirtsOf the robed pedagogue! Else let the arraign'd Stand up unconscious, and refute the charge.So when the Jewish leader stretch'd his arm,And waved his rod divine, a race obscene,Spawn'd in the muddy beds of Nile, came forth,Polluting Egypt: gardens, fields, and plainsWere cover'd with the pest; the streets were fill'd; The croaking nuisance lurk'd in every nook;Nor palaces, nor even chambers, 'scaped;And the land stank, so numerous was the fry.

stated that he believes that the arc occurred where the cord was bent over the edge of the table, which he identified as the area of the cord that experienced the most mechanical stress. He did not identify specifically why an electrical cord bending over a table top causes mechanical stress or why mechanical stress would be likely to, cause arcing. However, Hansen noted that the mechanical stress put on the cord was similar to the stress put on every table lamp, which is one of the reasons he concluded the cord was defective. After the fire, 32 inches of cord remained attached to the male plug end of the cord and five and a half inches remained at the base of the lamp. The 19 inches closest toIn his August 25, 2005 report, he stated that he was asked to review the evidence and determine whether Hansen's report was consistent with it. He did additional work on the case in July 2006. He conducted x-rays of remnants from the fire, including the electrical cord that was attached to the J.C. Penney lamp. In his opinion, the x-rays indicate where arcing occurred in the lamp cord. The x-ray analysis identified other segments of the cord containing masses that could have been indicative of arcing. Korinek prepared an arc map showing that arcing occurred in the cord somewhere between the tabletop and where it may have been wrapped around a table leg, which is the same range identified by Hansen. Korinek identified the cord as the likely source

However, in his deposition testimony, he said he was not able to state with a reasonable degree of probability whether the conductors were manufactured too close together or whether there was insufficient insulation between the two conductors. Korinek stated that he believed that the damage occurred before the involuntary plaintiffs bought the lamp. He based this belief upon a conversation that he had with involuntary plaintiff Shannon Scharmer about her care of the lamp and cord after she purchased them. Korinek was not able to state with a reasonable degree of scientific certainty that the lamp cord was defective before it left Chau's possession. Korinek did not identify any industry standards the lamp or cord violated. OPINION In a diversity case, state law governs substantive claims, while federal law governs allflames. He studied the burn, fire and heat patterns and considered fire department information to reach his conclusion that the fire began behind the couch. At that point, he eliminated other potential fire sources on the basis of their proximity to the couch and his conversation with involuntary plaintiff Shannon Scharmer. This left him with the. J.C. Penney lamp and cord as a potential source of the fire. Halverson is not an electrical engineer and does not purport to know what about the lamp or cord could have caused the fire. The parties appear to dispute almost nothing with respect to Halverson's credentials or methodology. Both sides appear to agree that he has the proper credentials to serve as an expert regarding the origin of the fire and that

That formula can turn the Hornets into something special, but the franchise is losing a year of its rebuild as it continues to kowtow to Gordon. Dell Demps and Williams have bent over backwards for Gordon. They were patient with his mysterious knee injury in 2012. They took the high road when Gordon and his agent took the free-agency process into the gutter in hopes of getting out of New Orleans. Demps and Williams allowed Gordon to return to Los Angeles to rehabilitate his knee earlier this season, and they've recently catered to his rehabilitation process by allowing him to sit out back-to-back games. But Wednesday night should be the final time they give in. The NBA All-Star break provides all players an opportunity to rest their bodies and minds, but insteadJust 72 hours after a police pursuit ended in gunfire, two Louisiana law enforcement officers are under arrest, charged with murder in the death of a 6-year-old autistic boy. The boy's father was wounded when the officers opened fire on the car in which he and his son were riding. The head of the Louisiana State Police says a video of the shooting is one of the most disturbing things he's ever seen, CBS News' David Begnaud reports. Jeremy Mardis, 6, died in the front seat of his father's vehicle with his dad at the wheel. Investigators said both father and son were shot by Marksville police officers Norris Greenhouse Jr. and Derrick Stafford. They are being held without bail.

On September 22, 2006, the Missouri Department of Revenue issued a title on the Vehicle to the Debtor. No lienholders are noted on the certificate of title. On December 13, 2006, DeForge filed a notice of lien with the Missouri Department of Revenue. On or about April 27, 2007, DeForge paid HSBC $16,765.00 for the retail installment sale contract with the Debtor pursuant to a recourse agreement, and HSBC Auto Finance reassigned the contract to DeForge. HSBC, which had originally been named as a defendant in this matter, was dismissed from the lawsuit on January 23, 2008. DISCUSSION The resolution of this dispute turns on the application of Mo.Rev.Stat. § 301.600.4, which providesregistration. The appellant responded that his license had been revoked whereupon one of the officers from a police call box verified from traffic records that the driver's permit had been revoked and never restored. One officer in a police cruiser drove the appellant to headquarters, and a detective followed in the appellant's car. When the appellant was being booked he was found to possess a credit card issued in the name of one Canady. By telephoning to the Sixth Precinct in which Canady resided, the arresting officers learned that Canady's home had been burglarized that very day.1 The officers at the time of the arrest had noticed in plain view several items which appellant had claimed were his own, including a record player

Commander for the Allied Powers directed the Japanese Government to report on the location of property they had seized during the war. It reported that the Josephine Moller, which it had seized, was at Yokohama. On December 3, 1946, the Supreme Commander notified the British Government that this vessel was available for return to its owners. Later, however, the Supreme Commander directed the Imperial Japanese Government to retain the vessel until October 15, 1948, for the purpose of laying and repairing submarine cables. Later, other directives were issued ordering further retention of the vessel and it was not until March 24, 1950, that the Supreme Commander directed the Japanese Government to return the vessel to the Government of the United Kingdom. It was actually returned on August 4,1950. The Allied Powers, of course, was not a body politic. It was an association of sovereign states. Any action taken by the Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers was taken on behalf of the association, of course; but it was also taken on behalf of each one of the Allied Powers. Any action taken by him was taken as the agent of the United States of America, as the agent of Great Britain, and as the agent of China and of Russia.

Georgian voters cast ballots Wednesday to elect a new parliament amid the threat of mass protests if the election is perceived as unfair. An exit poll shows the ruling party headed toward victory, in balloting marred by reports of violence and opposition accusations of vote-rigging. VOA Correspondent Peter Fedynsky is following the election from Moscow. In a televised address before the election, Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili sought to reassure Georgians that he would be more responsive to their political demands. The Georgian leader says whatever the makeup of the opposition after the election, he promises to engage its members more actively in the governing process, to share power, and to increase transparency to reduce polarization and tension in society. Mr. Saakashvili also promises more meetings and negotiations in place of confrontations,rallies, hunger strikes, and sit-ins that have taken place since last November, when authorities used force to disperse anti-government demonstrations in Tbilisi. Soon after voting began, the opposition alleged that several of its activists had been beaten at polling stations. Georgian authorities also confirm a deadly shooting at one precinct, but deny any connection to the vote. Opposition leader Levan Gachechiladze told VOA the activist's daughter was also shot in the incident, which occurred at nine o'clock in the Tsalendjikha district near Georgia's breakaway region of Abkhazia. Gachechiladze says he cannot yet confirm a motive, but the opposition is demanding an investigation. Levan Gachechiladze warns that as many as 100,000 protesters will descend on the Georgian capital if the election is shown to be rigged. Georgia, says Gachechiladze, is a small country

there is no time! Kalaar could only stand in a daze. Yes, he must be dreaming this. He would soon awake near his light-harp, lulled to sleep by its soft melodies. It would all be over then. Just an overactive imagination brought on by too much gheva juice. Suddenly, a deafening explosion disintegrated the far wall. An eruption of swirling crystal and metal came at him, and Kalaar stumbled to the floor, dust gagging him, shrapnel knifing into his flesh, madness filling his heart. Then he beheld a ghastly image. Swarms of spindly bipedal beings were pouring in through the breach, all of them war screaming, slashing at the air with sharpened bone-blades which curved out of their forearms, tentacles tipped with stingers darting to and fro. Two of his palaceguards opened fire with their heavy pulse cannons and swept the forward area with wide fields of fire, methodically reducing the first few lines of alien attackers down to ragged chunks of flying body parts. Still, the invaders continued to press their assault deeper. Four more palace guards appeared from a side entrance and threw themselves into the struggle. An enormous Vorvon automaton suddenly entered the chamber through the gaping hole on a cushion of antigravity and let loose swarms of flying insect-machines into the room. One of them attached itself to the head of one of the troopers and pumped a surge of angry electricity into his brain, killing him instantly. Another fighter, distracted by the flying little robots, received a bone blade through the abdomen and out

Particularly in the application of a switch in an electric hand-tool, which is powered by a battery, such a switch usually comprises at least one component in which a considerable quantity of heat is generated. It is attractive to place such a component on a metal carrier, since metal is a good heat conductor. This provides the option of including in the carrier the function of a cooling plate in the calculation of the heat dissipation of the components placed on the carrier.

The existing building was an old timber frame construction that was extreme structurally unsafe and building that had rolled and was close to falling down. The building required temporary propping with large steel columns and ties to stabilise it in a temporary state so that the permanent structural steels and flooring membrane could be installed safely.

Thomas Tarurongo Wynne: We doom ourselves to repeat history OPINION: In 1914, when War broke out in Europe, a young man by the name of Thomas Wynne enlisted in the Irish Fusiliers and was sent to Belgium to fight in a War he probably knew little about other than it was possibly an opportunity for what some called adventure, some honour, some for God and country. Regardless of his reasons why, he would leave the emerald green shores of Dublin by ship to Liverpool, then make his way with the regiment to Belgium. It was June, and he would be killed by sniper fire in a small town just on the border of France and Belgium where his body now lies. He like so many other men responded to a calland many for so many reasons. But one thing was clear, the decisions made by their leaders of the day would ultimately cost them their lives. And he would pay the greatest price for the decision of others, by losing his life to someone he would never meet or know, a stray bullet fired across a hill and trenches that took his life, in his 23rd year, in December of 1914. Sacrifice would be the price paid by the many, and chosen in cabinet rooms, on oak tables far away from the consequences of their decision. As difficult or as easy the decision made by British and German and empire leaders of the day for the most part their families, their sons and daughters would not have to meet the toll required

have been able to describe in detail the horrific injuries he sustained as well as to digitally reconstruct what he looked like. They identified at least five impacts that resulted in fracturing to the face and skull, allowing them to compile a detailed account of how the man died. Professor Black said, “This is a fascinating skeleton in a remarkable state of preservation which has been expertly recovered. From studying his remains we learned a little about his short life but much more about his violent death. As you can see from the facial reconstruction he was a striking young man, but he met a very brutal end, suffering a minimum of five severe injuries to his head. “The first impact was by a circular cross-section implement that broke his teethon the right side. The second may have been the same implement, used like a fighting stick which broke his jaw on the left. The third resulted in fracturing to the back of his head as he fell from the blow to his jaw with a tremendous force possibly onto a hard object perhaps stone. “The fourth impact was intended to end his life as probably the same weapon was driven through his skull from one side and out the other as he lay on the ground. The fifth was not in keeping with the injuries caused in the other four where a hole, larger than that caused by the previous weapon, was made in the top of the skull.” A bone sample sent for radiocarbon dating indicates that he

the 33 year old candidate, Rigoberta Menchu. In a frank conversation with our journalist, Anders Riis-Hansen, she spoke of the 500th anniversary and of her country, where military dictatorships and repression have kept her from living since 1981. Guatemala, with nine million inhabitants, is a nation that has not yet felt the soft breezes of peace that have touched other countries of the Central American region. It is a country in which the extermination of the indigenous peoples continues to be a reality. During the last thirty years, this country has been torn by a civil war that, to date, has left more than 100,000 dead and 30,000 disappeared. The vast majority of these victims have been indigenous peasants. Different military dictators and civilian governments have carried out a military campaignagainst the guerrilla, resulting in militarization without precedent on the American continent. More than half a million men from the civilian population are now under arms in the so-called Civil Defense Patrols. These are patrols organized by the armed forces. According to Castro's spokesmen, participation in the patrols is voluntary. However, human rights organizations have provided numerous testimonies and proofs that the indigenous are obliged to participate and to carry out army orders. Thousands of Rigoberta Menchu's countrymen are buried in clandestine graves, executed without trial by the Civil Patrols.

The small skirmishes between security forces and demonstrators unfolded along streets adjacent to Tehran University, the capital's main institution of higher learning. Protests occurred despite opposition leaders Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi having called off the demonstrations, apparently concerned that the official crackdown would be too harsh. Both men ran and lost against President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a year ago Saturday in an election landslide immediately derided as fraudulent by the nation's reformist opposition and suspect by most independent observers. The vote sparked a months-long, largely peaceful anti-government uprising quashed by Iranian authorities using mostly non-lethal force, mass imprisonments and a relentless media campaign on state-controlled television and radio depicting the opposition as foreign dupes. Dozens were killed in the crackdown and thousands imprisoned, though many were released on hefty bail. InBody balance in patients with systemic vertigo after rehabilitation exercise. The aim of this paper was to characterize structural balance of the body in people with systemic vertigo after applying rehabilitation exercise, such as motor-visual coordination on a posturographic platform and balance exercise. Physiotherapeutic procedures were carried out in a group of 12 people, aged 25-60 years suffering from vertigo. The evaluation of body balance in the standing position was performed by means of recording of postural sways based on force-plate posturography. The examination was performed before and after the rehabilitation program. Standard tests were done, with eyes open, eyes closed, and with conscious visual control-biofeedback. Patients with vertigo underwent a month-long therapy, which included: exercise of motor-visual coordination on a posturographic platform and balance exercise, which consisted of

French swingman Evan Fournier came into the 2011 Nike Hoop Summit with some recognition after stringing together some very intriguing performances for Poiters in Pro A France over the past few months. He stood out immediately in the practice sessions with his excellent size, mature frame, high skill level and terrific scoring instincts on the wing. He plays at a very nice pace and has a smoothness and craftiness to his game that enables him to get into the paint off the dribble, utilizing his deceptive athleticism and very aggressive mentality. He uses jab-steps nicely and has strong footwork and ball-handling skills, showing especially nice timing on his drives, where he can use spin moves and finish elegently. He also displayed a very good feel for the game, often throwingnice passes to set up his teammates off his penetration. In France he's at times the one who's asked to bring the ball up the floor for his team, demonstrating his intriguing versatility. He showed the ability to finish in transition and in the paint against the other World Team members, but he struggled in the game, shooting 2-8 from the floor, and looking somewhat nervous and clearly being bothered by the length of Team USA at the rim. In the practices and from the game-film we watched it seems like he does an excellent job of using his strong body around the rim to shield opponents and finish through contact, though, so it's possible he may have just been pressing in the actual game. A big key will be his

defensively, but his lack of lateral quickness on the wing was evident during the game as he was beaten off the dribble pretty badly on occasions by Team USA. Ponitka's shot is pretty flat and has some sidespin, but he shoots the ball confidently and showed the ability to knock down shots off the catch and off the dribble with range out past the 3-point line. He also displayed good scoring instincts and the ability to score some in the mid-range. His lack of elevation hinders his ability to score at the rim, however, and some of his game off the bounce would likely be limited if playing regularly against higher level athletes. He didn't show much in the way of creating for others or advanced ball-handling, and hedidn't look to do much to set up his teammates, as he plays primarily with a scorer's mentality. Ponitka plays in the Polish second division at the moment, on an academy team composed of young players. His options for next year include playing in the NCAA or signing with a big team in Europe. How he's able to translate his scoring prowess to a higher level of competition will likely tell us quite a bit about the extent of his potential, as there are some question marks about just how far his physical tools can carry him.

still a streaky jump-shooter at this stage, showing inconsistent mechanics, but he has a decent stroke and looks comfortable shooting off the dribble or with his feet set. His intensity level defensively really stood out in some of the scrimmaging, and although he's not a great defender in terms of his length or fundamentals, he managed to frustrate others on the World Team with his ball pressure. He wasn't as effective against the athleticism on Team USA on the offensive or defensive side of the ball, but as the future of Chinese basketball, he'll be worth keeping an eye on over the next few years, even if there are some question marks about his true age.

As with all Krug Champagnes, Krug 2002 will continue to gain with the passage of time.Justin Fletcher, 22, made an initial appearance Friday in Little Rock District Court on charges including first-degree murder, battery and aggravated assault. Innocent pleas were entered, and bail was set at $1 million. Charles Robinson III, 23, and a 17-year-old whose name wasn't released are also being sought in the deadly shooting. It happened shortly before 10 p.m. Wednesday outside the Site Store at 4203 Asher Ave. There, police found 17-year-old girls Jasmine Simone Young and Sydney Blocker suffering from gunshot wounds and learned that a third victim, 19-year-old Kyron Richardson, had already been taken to the hospital in a private vehicle. Young was taken to UAMS Medical Center, where she was later pronounced dead. The conditions of the other two victims were described only as non-life-threatening. A fourth victim in the car

semifinals. Stephano defeated Lucky 4-0 to win the tournament, claiming the $30,000 prize, and becoming one of the few foreign players who won a premier event attended by South Korean players. This achievement also granted him a spot in the Blizzard Cup, an all-star event featuring ten of the most successful players of year 2011. With his name now firmly established, Stephano entered the 2011 MLG Orlando the following week. There, he was far less successful, taking eighteenth place at the event after a run that was ended by BoxeR in the championship bracket. The week after that, Stephano was back in France to compete in the Electronic Sports World Cup 2011. He managed to take first place of his group without losing a single match, allowing him toadvance to the playoffs. There, he defeated Axslav and ClouD before facing MarineKing. Although his South Korean opponent was arguably an expert in the Terran versus Zerg match-up, Stephano was able to win 2-0, bringing him to the finals. His competitor for the title was his friend and practice partner, MaNa. In the end, Stephano won 3-1, taking home a $26,000 prize and his second premier event trophy in a month. Stephano made three more appearances before the end of the year. In November, he was invited to the Battle in Berlin, where he lost to GoOdy in the second round. Two weeks later, he made an unimpressive run at DreamHack Winter, dropping out of the tournament in the second group stage. The next month, he travelled to South

Compare this fairytale in two languages In the forest, high up on the steep shore, and not far from the open seacoast, stood a very old oak-tree. It was just three hundred and sixty-five years old, but that long time was to the tree as the same number of days might be to us; we wake by day and sleep by night, and then we have our dreams. It is different with the tree; it is obliged to keep awake through three seasons of the year, and does not get any sleep till winter comes. Winter is its time for rest; its night after the long day of spring, summer, and autumn. On many a warm summer, the Ephemera, the flies that exist for only a day, had flutteredAnd there stood the oak, stripped of all its leaves, left to rest during the whole of a long winter, and to dream many dreams of events that had happened in its life, as in the dreams of men. The great tree had once been small; indeed, in its cradle it had been an acorn. According to human computation, it was now in the fourth century of its existence. It was the largest and best tree in the forest. Its summit towered above all the other trees, and could be seen far out at sea, so that it served as a landmark to the sailors. It had no idea how many eyes looked eagerly for it. In its topmost branches the wood-pigeon built her nest, and the cuckoo

his dream fancied he heard the bells ringing from all the churches round, and yet it seemed to him to be a beautiful summer's day, mild and warm. His mighty summits was crowned with spreading fresh green foliage; the sunbeams played among the leaves and branches, and the air was full of fragrance from herb and blossom; painted butterflies chased each other; the summer flies danced around him, as if the world had been created merely for them to dance and be merry in. All that had happened to the tree during every year of his life seemed to pass before him, as in a festive procession. He saw the knights of olden times and noble ladies ride by through the wood on their gallant steeds, with plumeswaving in their hats, and falcons on their wrists. The hunting horn sounded, and the dogs barked. He saw hostile warriors, in colored dresses and glittering armor, with spear and halberd, pitching their tents, and anon striking them. The watchfires again blazed, and men sang and slept under the hospitable shelter of the tree. He saw lovers meet in quiet happiness near him in the moonshine, and carve the initials of their names in the grayish-green bark on his trunk. Once, but long years had intervened since then, guitars and Eolian harps had been hung on his boughs by merry travellers; now they seemed to hang there again, and he could hear their marvellous tones. The wood-pigeons cooed as if to explain the feelings of the tree, and

the cuckoo called out to tell him how many summer days he had yet to live. Then it seemed as if new life was thrilling through every fibre of root and stem and leaf, rising even to the highest branches. The tree felt itself stretching and spreading out, while through the root beneath the earth ran the warm vigor of life. As he grew higher and still higher, with increased strength, his topmost boughs became broader and fuller; and in proportion to his growth, so was his self-satisfaction increased, and with it arose a joyous longing to grow higher and higher, to reach even to the warm, bright sun itself. Already had his topmost branches pierced the clouds, which floated beneath them like troops of birds of passage,or large white swans; every leaf seemed gifted with sight, as if it possessed eyes to see. The stars became visible in broad daylight, large and sparkling, like clear and gentle eyes. They recalled to the memory the well-known look in the eyes of a child, or in the eyes of lovers who had once met beneath the branches of the old oak. These were wonderful and happy moments for the old tree, full of peace and joy; and yet, amidst all this happiness, the tree felt a yearning, longing desire that all the other trees, bushes, herbs, and flowers beneath him, might be able also to rise higher, as he had done, and to see all this splendor, and experience the same happiness. The grand, majestic oak

Capability refers to the real options that someone has in order to pursue the subjective Functions they prefer most. Nevertheless, inequalities related to class, gender, communities hinder the extent of human freedom and thus decrease our ability to function.

It is in Smithfield that my mother came to know the family, since she was living inRichmond. Kent and my Mom were close in age and played together. Larry and Mom both told me stories about William and Edith being very particular about being healthy eaters. Larry remembers Edith washing every leaf of a head of lettuce before it could be eaten. William tried to convince Larry of the unhealthy nature of bacon and milk. Nobody else seemed to care, but it would really get William and Edith upset when people would not come to their way of thinking. William was also particular about when you ate, not mixing the various parts of your food with other parts. Larry found much of this amusing. The Andra family was a fairly tight knit family and held reunions together yearly. Relationships started to strain in 1965 when William

this happens to involve the House Judiciary Committee, then controlled by Democrats under the George W. Bush administration. At issue was a congressional investigation into the firing of several U.S. attorneys. The committee subpoenaed former White House counsel Harriet Miers, and the White House instructed her not to comply, citing executive privilege. It made the same instruction regarding a document subpoena to Josh Bolten, the White House chief of staff. Both were held in contempt of Congress, and the speaker of the House asked the U.S. attorney in Washington, D.C., to pursue the matter. But the federal prosecutor declined to do that, citing a Justice Department policy of not prosecuting a White House official for criminal contempt of Congress if that official had invoked executive privilege at the behest of the president. Congresssued, and a district court judge sided with lawmakers. The Bush administration appealed and President Barack Obama took office while the case was still pending. The new administration settled the case, granting Congress access to some of the documents it sought and allowing sworn testimony from Miers. By then, a year and a half after Congress issued the subpoena, the oversight issue largely was moot. Much the same thing happened when the Republican-controlled House Oversight Committee sought to subpoena Attorney General Eric Holder in 2012 over a scandal involving a gun investigation known as Operation Fast and Furious. This time, the Obama Justice Department refused to prosecute a congressional contempt citation against the attorney general. A court battle dragged on, and it wasn't until January 2016 that a court ordered the

As other, more southerly animals, such as deer, move north as the Arctic warms, they invade caribou territory, bringing with them disease, such as the meningeal brain worm, according to Vors and Boyce. The worm does not harm deer, but kills caribou. In addition, as moose arrive from the south, wolf packs follow them, and while the much-larger moose are more successful at fending off wolves, caribou succumb more easily to the predators. Komi reindeer herders along the Kola Peninsula in Arctic Russia are already complaining that their animals are losing 20 percent of their weight by the time they take them to slaughter. Not only is heavy snowin 1980, to 286,000 in 1994.

The project promises to create 400 jobs, many of which will go to the chronically underemployed Inuit in the region.

Art can take a number of forms, yet some are more delicious than others. From elaborately crafted constructions to indulgently intricate designs, chocolatiers have turned to cocoa beans as their malleable medium of choice since the first chocolate bar was created in the mid-19th century. Tempering and melting, moulding and crafting, the works of the traditional chocolatier exhibit a skilful creativity entirely deserving of the art world's attention. Vanilla Truffle at the foreground.Photo courtesy of Chocolate Utopia Thanks to chocolate academies such as the Ecole Chocolat School in Canada and École du Grand Chocolat Valrhona in France, as well as international competitions like the World Chocolate Masters, a light has been shed on the artful dexterity demanded of the chocolatier.

original three wheeler. Undoubted star of the show was the Sunbeam 'Blue Bird' land speed record car from 1924, direct from Beaulieu which rattled the windows of the town on numerous runs up the High Street. This dynamic new event required an army of truly amazing volunteers who in the early hours of Sunday morning constructed a street circuit through the main streets of Bromyard's town centre, with marshals and stewards to control all the safety aspects, while other volunteers controlled the paddock, car parking and all other aspects of the Festival.� Nothing like this had ever been tried before in Bromyard, but they made it a reality, and they certainly made it work. The Festival got off to a roaring start with Bromyard's own highly successful race and rallydriver Barrie 'Whizzo' Williams cutting the tape at 10.00 am, and then leading the first batch of Morgan cars in his championship winning Mini Cooper 'S'. Each group of cars circulated the street circuit behind a pace car, for a number of laps.� This format provided the visitors, especially the photographers among them, terrific opportunities for taking close up action photographs.� The visitors had been able to attend the Festival free of charge including car parking and it is not surprising that thousands took advantage of this unique opportunity, with many travelling substantial distances specifically for the Festival and staying for the day.

When Metalicana arrived at the prison, the guards had been warned that a particularly dangerous Dragon transformed into human was going to come. As a consequence, he was greeted with a lot of kindness, of respect and of attention. The first time, he hadn't passed the great door and now that he walked in front of the cells, he felt sick and clenched his teeth. He didn't feel pity for this prisoners, far from it, but they disgusted him. They had nothing human anymore, almost nothing alive. And concerning Gajeel, it was the same. Despite the madness that blinded him and misled his body, he was wasting away with each effort. Even if his strengths were still increasing, the weakness had won on him again and didn't allowhim to stand. He was moaning continually, like an animal to the point of death. His condition had got worse during those two last days. His face was carved, he had bags under his eyes and he had lost weight. Suddenly, Metalicana doubted that he could save him. He was already dead physically, and his mind was fading at a alarming speed. He didn't move, didn't growl, and he barely glanced at the Dragon when he sat him on the ground of his cage, as if he couldn't see anything. He sadly nodded his head gently at the moment when the guards placed him on his father's back in order to transport him until he could take back his original form outside. Unfortunately for Gajeel, he fainted before

he could even admire the light of the day after so much time spent into the darkness. Metalicana brought him in the only place he really knew like the back of his hand, and he was certain no one would find them here, nor disturb them as long as the Dragon Slayer wouldn't be recovered. The place he had found and raised him, in a little forest between Era and the mount Hakobe. He landed in a small clearing that seemed familiar to him. There was a strange shelter, naturally composed by leaning trees, branches and brushes. The spot he called his home, and that he left for seven years. Despite all this time, nothing had changed and a pinch of nostalgia spread in the Dragon's heart when hethought about the years he'd spent here with his son. He delicately placed him on the ground inside his lair and took care of the priorities, meaning healing him. Considering his state, he'd have needed a huge quantity of magic to heal him, but who cares? He had it. He gently placed his muzzle against his cheek, in a way we nearly could have thought it was tender, and slowly, he transferred his magic into him, chasing the darkness from his heart and his mind, as the pain left his body. The iron mage slightly growled, but he didn't wake up, and the Dragon eventually laid beside him, in a way that Gajeel could lay against his neck. Even a twig seemed stronger than him right now, and for

the first time, Metalicana felt the need to protect him. Now he just ha to wait him to recover and wake up. But he didn't. No, because despite everything, Gajeel wasn't fine. He didn't wake up, even if he had nightmares and was screaming every nights, begging invisible demons to leave him alone. And his body kept weakening. He wasn't in coma, but he was incapable to awake, as if someone wished to condemn him to suffer. He had broken his body in jail, beyond the limits of the supportable, even if his father had integrally cured him. The nutritional deficiencies he had accumulated continued to make him sick and to kill him inside, and it wasn't with the microscopic quantity of food Metalicana managed to make him swallowthat he could be better. And no magic could do anything against this. For the first time in his life, he felt... useless. And even if he wanted to hide it to himself, he didn't want his son to die, he didn't, not after all they lived together. But it was the day when Gajeel really almost died and when he only just managed to bring him round that he understood he needed help, and above all a doctor, because Gajeel wouldn't healed like this. On the contrary, it would get worse until he really couldn't do anything. But he wasn't going to return to Fairy Tail, he clearly said he would take care of it himself, and he didn't want to deal with those cheeky humans. So

Gajeel's. From now on there was just a single solution to Lilas... get rid of him. And she already had some ideas. With a deep growl, the one who became her target sat on a chair placed in a corner and massaged his temples. The silence fell, only interrupted by the heart-rate monitor Sebastian had installed. And now they just had to wait. Metalicana had to handle his human form for a while, until the iron mage awoke. And a miracle happened a week later. Lilas was trying again to escape Metalicana's diligent surveillance to reach the bedroom he was guarding behind himself. She'd tried so many times, but neither the dribble, neither the shouts, neither the fluffs she'd thrown into the face hadn't defeated the Dragon who remainedloyal and reliable. But today, yes today, there was finally an opening. Exhausted by the little girl, he fell asleep on his chair. On all four, she passed beside him – he didn't move – and entered in the bedroom – the door was never closed – with a devilish and silent laughter. However, since all this time, Lilas had grown, and had understood the message, she mustn't disturb him. She straightened and staggered around the bed, then she stood next to the bedside table, in front of his sleepy face and she didn't move anymore. Only her eyes and her tongue that wandered in and out her mouth, creating weird sounds, proved she wasn't a statue, and she remained immobile during a few minutes. Then, because her

Lilas beside him. Finally they left, and they slightly turned upside down the young girl's quotidian because she decided to stay with them the next two days, before she took back her habits in the Guild, and waiting her friend with an new impatience. *** Now that Gajeel was awake, Metalicana hadn't restrained himself to remark that he started to have enough. Lilas' terrible blows had annoyed him like ever and he wanted at all cost to be left alone, so he had curtailed his stay amongst the humans and had dragged his son by the collar to make him left the house. He returned in the forest, and took care of him for a little while, meaning by training him until he was exhausted enough to collapse on theground, asleep. He continued until Gajeel completely recovered, as if anything never happened. But despite the guilt he felt towards Levy and Pantherlily because he had attacked them both, Gajeel still wanted to see them, and his father finally gave in, even if it wasn't his habits, even if he wanted at all cost to get rid of all this. *** It was the end of the day at Fairy Tail. The sun was still here but the sky was slowly turning form gold to orange. Lily was sitting near the window as usual and was currently peeling a kiwi as he glanced outside regularly. Levy had left him for a moment to read the new chapter of Lucy's novel and was sitting beside her, a orange juiced in hand.

hadn't changed. Of course he remembered her! Oh yes he loved her, she could read it in his eyes that were looking only her. She? She cried in joy and relief, feeling the huge weight that was crushing her shoulders for six months suddenly lighten. With a beaming smile, she threw herself in his arms, a lump in her throat due to the emotion that prevent her cry of joy to be heard. Sat on the ground, Lily was roaring with laughter, he had the same reaction when he'd jumped on the Dragon Slayer. Gajeel wrapped an arm around the young girl's waist, and the other reached her cheek where he brushed away one of the blue locks and rubbed away her tears before he bent down and captured her lips withpassion. Levy muffled a faint sob and her hands gripped his black coat and held tight firmly, despite the shivers that shook them. Mocking whistles in their back interrupted them and they turned the head toward the Fairy Tail mages who just arrived and rushed at them. Not crazy, the blue haired mage moved aside and Gajeel welcomed with bravery the human wave that rushed at him. He had the powerful impression to be the American football player who has the ball and who sees everyone running at him to tackled on the ground. Natsu and Grey jumped at him while Elfman hit his back manly and the master joined them shouting greeting words. Gradually the Dragon Slayer disappeared, buried under his friend's bodies who yelled until their

throats ached. People in the street glanced toward them and toward the racket they made, but no on paid attention. Filled with joy, Levy started to laugh, along with the girls who'd stayed behind with her, with the Exceeds and Jet and Droy who were hesitating to do the same as their friends. However, to their teammate's great surprise, they came closer to Gajeel when he was repulsing the mages above him with insults. The iron mage stood, dusted with dignity and ignored the Fairy Tail members and their racket. Jet and Droy patted him on the shoulders almost friendly before they turned around and went back inside the Guild in a tense pace as if nothing had happened. Levy stared at them while Grey invited the girlsto enjoy with him and Natsu caught Metalicana to make him dance despite his outraged shouts of protestation. Then she turned toward Gajeel who was talking with his cat he finally found. He must have felt her gaze on him because he looked at her and gave her his usual half-smile that made her heart pounding faster every time she saw it now. Lily patted the Dragon Slayer's cheek and left to join Sharuru and Happy, leaving again the two young mages alone. Gajeel shyly reached the arms an the mage flew into them once again with an unconcealed joy, happy and appeased to feel him tighten his embrace. That was when she saw some weird white marks on his arms and caught the suddenly slightly embarrassed and

Virginia has hired BYU head coach Bronco Mendenhall to replace Mike London, the school announced Friday. The news comes as a significant shock. A few names had been mentioned as potential replacements for London, including Cal HC Sonny Dykes and former Rutgers HC Greg Schiano, but Mendenhall has no apparent ties to the region or the East Coast in general. The move comes directly after two other high-profile hirings in the division. Miami hired former Georgia HC Mark Richt, while Virginia Tech hired Memphis HC Justin Fuente. That gives the Virginia-Virginia Tech game some extra flavor, as Mendenhall's BYU and Fuente's Memphis brawled at the Miami Beach Bowl in 2014. Mendenhall has signed a five-year contract starting at $3.25 million per year, according to the release. In 11 seasons withthe Cougars, Mendenhall posted a 99-42 record. A Utah native, Mendenhall played defensive back at Oregon State from 1986-87 after two years in junior college. After bouncing around the staffs at Oregon State, Northern Arizona and Louisiana Tech, he landed his first consistent gig in 1998 as the defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach at New Mexico. Mendenhall stayed there through 2002, eventually being promoted to assistant head coach, before being hired as BYU's defensive coordinator in 2003. Mendenhall was named BYU's head coach prior to the 2005 season, following Gary Crowton's third straight losing season at the helm of the program, and he's held the job ever since. In his 10 years as head coach of BYU entering this season, the Cougars made 10 bowl games, with nine winning

do we get our ideas of what it means to be successful? Well, from many places, but in particular from.. THE MEDIA Our competitive instincts have evolved from our earliest origins. Social interactions allowed our ancestors to assess their standing within the clan. Nowadays the media allow us to assess our standing in the whole world. As well as informing us about world events, newspapers, magazines, television and social media carry glamorous accounts of the activities and tastes of top sportsmen and women, top socialites, top movie stars, and top business executives. This is quite understandable. Who wants to read about ordinary? But by once again focusing our attention on the extreme symbols of success which such people display, the media tend to distort or downplay our own personal successby a long period devoid of real purpose and leading to a general decline. In my opening section of this book I said that previous generations experienced retirement as being a relatively short period of inaction between lifelong work and death. It doesn't have to be this way in today's world. But it is up to each individual to ensure that their own retirement fits the picture of what it should be. But this will not happen automatically. ## JUST ONE LIFE In the preceding sections I have broken life down into three separate sections, youth, adulthood, and maturity. I have done this for purposes of explanation. What I want to do now is to put life back together again. When all is said and done, it is just one

customers of my employers. I am also proud of the fact that, through my efforts, I have been able to provide for myself and my family, give my children a sound start in life, and to provide a measure of security for my old age. And I am very grateful that I had the opportunity to do this, which is certainly denied to billions of the less fortunate across the world. But still the fact remains that every single hour of my labour I did for one reason, and one reason alone - because I needed to earn a living. If I did not have that need, then my life would have taken a very different course. I am not exactly sure what that course would have been,reflect the interaction of personal and environmental factors. One of the central ideas of this book is that when a person retires both their opportunities and their limitations change significantly. The limitation of having to exchange one's time for money has been removed, and the opportunity of large amounts of time being freed up for a choice of activities appears. Toronto go on to identify three major domains of life, which they label Being, Belonging, and Becoming, which they further break down into a number of aspects which they call sub-domains. I will do the same, but from now on I will be using my own descriptions and interpretations, which mostly agree with the Toronto originals, but do vary in places. I will start with a bit of a caveat.

a whole-hearted endorsement of it even between EU member states. Germany The German state has generally been hostile to the idea of dual citizenship. The constitutional court of the Federal Republic of Germany had this to say in 1974: It is accurate to say that dual or multiple nationality is regarded, both domestically and internationally, as an evil that should be avoided or elimination in the interests of states as well as in the interests of the affected citizens... A 1999 poll indicated that 63% of Germans were against the idea of dual citizenship. More recently, the Germany Nationality Act of 2000 allowed children whose German citizenship was acquired by jus soli to hold dual citizenship until the age of 18 at which point they were asked to choose one and renounceseparation anxiety when I'd inevitably have to leave home to run errands.

As a child we never had a dog in the household. We spent the first 10 years of my life in a condominium with a very tiny patio, and no grass. Momma was adamant that she always 'wanted' a dog, but that a dog simply wouldn't be happy living there. So I understandably had a

bit of anxiety when Nora came into our lives, my own life stage very similar to those of my parents during my childhood. I worried if Truffles, our cat, would learn to accept her new sibling. I pondered adding a 1' fencing border around our patio railing. And I avoided the temptation of allowing Nora to sleep in our bed for fear one of us would roll onto her in the middle of the night. There was plenty of puppy-proofing; and as a toy breed dog, there are still many things we do today to ensure Nora's safety. Nora picked up on training really fast; I often look back on how well she did with her basic commands and wonder why I never attempted to teach her tricks. Iamount of syllables and didn't sound very natural. For a long time, since her behavioral training, Nora has forgone treats for that very reason. Occasionally I'd find a gluten free or handmade biscuits and chews I trusted and Nora would simply turn her nose up at them. I recently discovered Nudges premium jerky dog treats on a shopping trip at Walmart. I immediately recognized the American brand behind Nudges for their raised in the U.S.A. proteins and a quick once-over of the pouch told me I was right to trust my instincts. There were absolutely no fillers, and four delicious varieties to choose from; Health and Wellness, Bacon, Duck, and Beef.

argue that he was actually standing or working on a support device. He was, concededly, on the ground. He would presumably be within the second category of protected persons, therefore, because of his proximity to the trusses. Consequently, his recovery under the Act would depend on whether there was a duty to provide a support device for the trusses, the absence of which proximately caused his injury when the trusses fell on his leg. The evidence is uncontradicted that the industry practice is for the general contractor to provide the cribbing for trusses. Defendant Walter admitted as much, and plaintiff's expert witnesses testified that such cribbing served to protect workers from injury. Two other witnesses agreed that the industry practice was to support the trusses with heavy lumber.when a 20,000 pound metal pedestal fell on him as he was unloading it from a railroad car. The pedestals were to be transported to the site of a power generating facility being built approximately one-half mile away. A judgment was entered upon a jury verdict in favor of plaintiff. On appeal, the defendant argued, among other things, that the unloading of equipment was not an activity subject to the Structural Work Act. In rejecting this contention, the supreme court discussed the existence of a contract which indicated that the task of erecting machinery at the power station would necessitate the incidental tasks of unloading and storage. Further, the contract defined the premises of the construction as including all places contiguous to or in the vicinity of the

There is one game of his specifically as a fan of his college team the Wisconsin Badgers that sticks out to me. It came during the 2011 Big Ten Championship game in which the Badgers lucked out to win 41-38 against Michigan St. In that game, Shelton had 8 tackles, 1 pass defended, and an interception. The interception came in the first half but it was directly after the Spartans had taken the lead 22-21 and then forced a 3 and out from the Russell Wilson led Badgers. That was a huge game for the Badgers. Even with their National Championship dreams crushed by 2-straight games in which they lost on Hail Mary plays, they still had the opportunity to get to the Rose Bowl. Michigan St was alsothe first of two teams that had just won on the Hail Mary throws providing a little extra motivation. That game stands out for Shelton is because it was extremely emotional for the team and it brought Johnson's best game of his college career out of him. There is something to respect about a player that can have his best game when their season was on the line and if the Raiders can get Johnson to play like he did that night more consistently then they will get a solid player for the team. The Raiders certainly provide a chance for Johnson to make the team as they currently have Reggie Smith, Usama Young, Brandian Ross, and Tyvon Branch as the only Safeties on the team and Ross played more

While Jake tended to her needs, he tried to get her socially engaged. Each time he tried to suggest something new, it turned into a disaster. The setting was either too loud or crowded and her recovery time from each tried foray would take days. Jake, while loyal to her, was on his own socially. Unlike other couples, Jake and his wife were not joined at the hip. It was common for the couple to go their separate ways via business trips, meetings and the like and reunite for quality time. The accident had turned that time into constant rehaband rest. And while Jake looked at it as a labor of love, it still was a labor. With his wife out of commission, Jake tried other female friends. A male buddy would not do. He had to make the point to Penelope that he was not like the other panting suitors pining away for her in solitude. Every person Jake asked either had plans, avoided the subject with him or just said no. Jake even lowered himself by stopping off at various happy hours that yielded disastrous results.
