Rabid fans, and probably some non-fans too, are betting that Scotsman Peter Capaldi will be the next actor to play the title role on Doctor Who, the long-running British cult sci-fi show whose main character occasionally dies and regenerates into new bodies. According to the Radio Times, bookies are reporting 2/1 odds that Capaldi, best known for his role as a government PR person on the British comedy The Thick Of It, will replace Matt Smith when he leaves Doctor Who later this year.
RELATED: Anna Kournikova Gets Dumped
The show, which celebrates its 50 year anniversary this year, has had 11 Doctors, or Time Lords, over the years. When the Doctor dies he regenerates into a new form, with an entirely different personality. The switch to a new Doctoron the shortlist.
Be warned, though, that these odds should be taken with a massive grain of salt. When David Tennant announced he was stepping down from the role in 2008, bookies favored 44-year-old Paterson Joseph, a comedic actor who would have been the series' first black Doctor. Instead they went with a then unknown Matt Smith, the series' youngest Doctor. In fact, if 55-year-old Capaldi became the 12th Doctor, he'd break a general trend towards younger Doctors. While the first Doctor, William Hartnell, was also 55 when his first episode aired, the average age of the new Doctor has been 40 years old, and the last three Doctors were 41, 34 and 27 when their first episodes aired.

We described the NADPH-diaphorase-containing neurons and fibres in the brain of the frog Rana esculenta. In the telencephalon stained cells occurred in the olfactory bulb, all subdivisions of the pallium, the diagonal band, the medial septum and the striatum. The olfactory glomeruli showed the most intense enzyme reaction. The neuropil of the accessory olfactory bulb was also heavily stained and this staining extended to the rostral diencephalon through the ventral lateral pallium. Fibre staining was less intense in the medial pallium and the medial septum. In the diencephalon, NADPH-diaphorase staining was concentrated in the middle third of this part of the brain. The stained cells were embedded in a dense network of thin, stained fibres and terminals

worry about the pain because it would eventually subside. However, the pain intensified after his release to active duty. On June 15, 1989, the pain necessitated Jordan's transfer by ambulance from MCAS Tustin to the El Toro Naval Air Station. At El Toro, Jordan underwent a series of x-rays and other tests, all of which proved negative, and he was released the same afternoon.

Despite the negative tests, Jordan's back pain increased. Within a few days, he was bedridden as a result of the pain. He was taken by ambulance to the El Toro medical facility and transferred immediately to the Long Beach Naval Hospital. Again, Jordan complained of low back pain, reminding medical personnel at thehospital that he had undergone a spinal tap a few weeks earlier. He was assured that the pain was the result of muscle spasms, and unrelated to the spinal tap procedure. He was referred to physical therapy, but no tests were performed.
6
Jordan's condition did not improve. On July 25, 1989, he was transferred to the Spinal Clinic at the San Diego Naval Hospital. Blood tests were performed and revealed that Jordan was suffering from a severe infection as a result of the spinal tap. Two days later, Jordan underwent surgery to remedy the condition.

The treating physician at the San Diego Spinal Clinic informed Jordan that his condition and the surgery were the direct result of negligent medical care

Friday, the grisly images were posted on the Web for a global audience, including Westerners for whom decapitation is particularly shocking.
The Site Institute - a Washington organization which tracks terrorist groups - located on Friday an Arabic-language communiqué about Mr. Johnson's killing accompanied by grim photographs of the murder on a website set up recently using the free service provided by Geocities, a subsidiary of Yahoo!.
In Mr. Pearl's case, video footage of the murder was delivered to the US consulate in Karachi. Only later was it posted on the Internet and aired in part by CBS News.
The video of Mr. Berg's killing was posted immediately on the Web, provoking a storm of grief and outrage.
Mr. Johnson's killers managed to draw even more attention by announcing in their Webposting on Tuesday that he would be killed in 72 hours if their demands were not met.
'Here, we had the countdown: This guy was alive, but yet we knew he was doomed as the 72-hour countdown went on,' said Mr. Robert Thompson, a media and culture expert at Syracuse University in New York.
The combination of ritual murder with digital communications 'is this bizarre collision of worlds'.
He said the Internet had a powerful pull for terror groups because it allowed instant, international distribution to groups that otherwise could not broadcast their message through traditional media.
He said terror groups had been savvy enough to recognise, however, that only the most violent, most graphic events will draw attention.
'You can't put just anything on the Internet and expect people to pay attention,'

Costa, head of the UN Office Office for Drug
Control and Crime Prevention, said on Friday.
We discovered bases of Colombian drug dealers in the Balkans, in particular, in Albania, he noted. They promote Colombian cocaine to Eastern Europe, Russia and Ukraine.
According to Antonio Maria Costa, formerly Colombian cocaine was coming to Europe via Spain. However, Asia, first of all, Afghanistan, remains Europe's main source of cocaine and heroin.
Meanwhile, the UN report on cocaine production in Colombia, Peru and Bolivia says that illegal cocaine crops reduced by 20% in these countries.
All in all, 200,000 families live by cocaine crops in Colombia, Peru and Bolivia, the report proceeds.
San want their day in Bostwana courtThe fate of one of southern Africa's oldest nomadic tribes, the San or Bushmen, could be sealed whenthe Botswana High Court hears argument on the issue of ancestral land rights.
The court case, which commences on July 5 with an in loco inspection, could decide the future of the Gana and Gwi Bushmen communities.
Two hundred and forty-eight Bushmen and Bakgalagadi adults are taking the Botswana government, including President Festus Mogae, to court over the government's forced eviction of them and their families from their ancestral land, in what could be a test case for Bushman rights across southern Africa.
The in loco inspection is supposed to visit settlements from which the San were allegedly forcibly removed from the Central Kalahari Game Reserve to settlements outside the reserve.

did liberate Paris. It was all political, of course, and General Patton was left grinding his teeth over the slight.
General George Patton, a great general known to be a little pompous himself, said he would rather have a battalion of Germans in front of him than a battalion of French behind him. Patton had a big mouth, but at least he had the skills in warfare to back up his ego.
De Gaulle did become the leader of France after World War II and in the 1960's decided French soil could no longer stand having American soldiers standing on it so he pulled out of the military branch of NATO and ordered all American troops out of France. An angry President Johnson asked De Gaulle if he wanted usto dig up our dead and remove them as well. The story goes that a sputtering De Gaulle told him he didn't mean THOSE American soldiers.
In the here and now, Chirac proudly carries on the French anti-American tradition. However, Chirac has taken it to new heights. Saddam Hussein was a longtime good friend of Chirac, and Saddam thought right up until the first bomb dropped that his good friend in France would keep him safe from the Americans. Saddam should have known that the French always promise more then they can deliver.
As irritating as France's active support of Saddam was prior to Operation Iraqi Freedom, the revelation that France, along with Germany and Russia and the United Nations were lining their pockets off the blood of Iraqi children

moving to high-security compounds or even to Bahrain, and by pushing for the right to armed private guards, according to diplomats and real estate agents.
Western embassies in Riyadh, the Saudi capital, are negotiating with the government for a relaxation of the ban on private security guards carrying firearms, a Western diplomat said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Some Westerners have expressed concern that terrorist sympathizers may have infiltrated the Saudi security services, the diplomat said.
Security forces arrested a militant Tuesday north of Riyadh as they stepped up their presence in and around the city in a hunt for the kidnappers of Paul Johnson, an American who was abducted Saturday by a group calling itself al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula.
Security officials said the militant was detained in the King Fahddistrict, but it was not immediately clear whether the detainee was connected to the recent terror attacks.
Johnson, 49, of Stafford Township, N.J., was employed by Lockheed Martin and worked on Apache helicopters.
Third Westerner KilledThe day he was seized, Islamic militants shot dead another American, Kenneth Scroggs, from Laconia, N.H., in his garage. Scroggs was the third Westerner killed in a week, after the shooting death of an Irish cameraman for the British Broadcasting Corp. on June 6 and another American who was killed in his garage June 8.
Soldiers with automatic rifles guarded government buildings and manned check points in the city on Tuesday. Other security forces were searching houses where Johnson might be held, a Saudi official said, speaking on a condition of anonymity.

One example of a rotary machine is a gas turbine engine. The gas turbine engine has a rotor assembly which extends axially through the engine. A stator assembly extends circumferentially about the rotor assembly. A flowpath for working medium gases extends through the engines through the rotor assembly and the stator assembly and is bounded by elements of both assemblies.
The rotor assembly typically includes a rotor disk and a plurality of rotor blades extending radially outwardly across the working medium flowpath. The stator assembly includes an outer case and arrays of stator vanes, or struts, which extend radially inwardly across the working medium flowpath. A seal assembly is provided between the rotor disk of the rotor assembly and the strut of the stator assembly to provide a boundaryRetinoblastoma in an adult: a case report.

On the Media: Eyes on the Arab World
The National Public Radio program ON THE MEDIA interviewed Jihad Fakhreddine, a media analyst based in the United Arab Emirates, in February of 2003. In the interview, Fakhreddine comments on Al Jazeera as well as the then-fledgling Al-Arabiya 24-hour news network.Issues in the reconstruction of environmental doses on the basis of thermoluminescence measurements in the Techa riverside.
The potential of thermoluminescence measurements of bricks from the contaminated area of the Techa river valley, Southern Urals, Russia, for reconstructing external exposures of affected population groups has been studied. Thermoluminescence dating of background samples was used to evaluate the age of old buildings available on the river banks. The anthropogenic gamma dose accrued in exposed samples is determined by subtracting the natural radiation background dose for the corresponding age from the accumulated dose measured by thermoluminescence. For a site in the upper Techa river region, where the levels of external exposures were extremely high, the depth-dose distribution in bricks and the dependence of accidental dose on the height of the sampling

how the Americans managed to become involved in a
war 10,000 miles away from their native continent,
but the initial reasons for U.S. involvement in
Vietnam seemed logical and compelling to American
leaders. Following its success in World War II,
the United States faced the future with
confidence. From George Washington's perspective,
the threat to U.S. security and world peace was
communism emanating from the Soviet Union. Any
communist anywhere, at home or abroad was, by

BURMESE MONKS
This shot was taken at a small village tucked away in the Burmese jungle. We were driving from Rangoon to Mandalay and stopped to shoot in the pre-sunset light.
Filming a traditional ox cart as it worked the fields and delivered hay to the villages, we stumbled across the monks who took us in.
An inspirational moment, sat as the village guests, drinking sweet tea and eating cakes.
UNDERCOVER FILMING IN CHINESE MINE
We snuck into a mine near the central Burmese town of Monywa on the back of motorbikes in the middle of the night, evading the armed guards.
Local farmers, monks and activists had been protesting against what they say were forced evictions to allow for the mine to be enlarged.
The mine is jointly owned by the Burmese military andChinese arms manufacturer Norinco.

This was a painting of former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi positioned by one of the main roads
on the way into the town of Bani Walid.
We had been deployed to Bani Walid to investigate reports that people loyal to the former leader
were working to restore the old regime.
On route we passed heavily armed militias heading towards the town. Upon our arrival the people
were keen to show that they were supporting the revolution.

A linked list whose nodes contain two fields: an integer value and a link to the next node. The last node is linked to a terminator used to signify the end of the list.
Linked lists are among the simplest and most common data structures. They can be used to implement several other common abstract data types, including lists, stacks, queues, associative arrays, and S-expressions, though it is not uncommon to implement those data structures directly without using a linked list as the basis.
The principal benefit of a linked list over a conventional array is that the list elements can be easily inserted or removed without reallocation or reorganization of the entire structure because the data items need

rebellion, he departed with speed, and returned back the selfsame way which he had gone, making the barbarous people know, that they should deal with an army invincible, and which they could not possibly withstand, considering the great speed he had made with the same, in so sharp and hard a winter. For where they would not possibly have believed, that a post or courier could have come in so short a time from the place where he was, unto them: they wondered when they saw him burning and destroying the country, the towns and strong forts where he came with his army, taking all to mercy that yielded unto him: until such time as the Hedvi took arms against him, who before were wont to be calledthe brethren of the Romans, and were greatly honoured of them. Wherefore Caesar's men, when they understood that they had joined with the rebels, they were marvellous sorry, and half discouraged.
Part Two
Thereupon Caesar, departing from those parts, went through the country of the Lingones, to enter the country of the Burgonians, who were confederates of the Romans, and the nearest unto Italy on that side, in respect of all the rest of Gaul. Thither the enemies came to set upon him, and to environ him of all sides, with an infinite number of thousands of fighting men. Caesar on the other side tarried their coming, and fighting with them a long time, he made them so afraid of him, that at length he overcame the barbarous people. But

phosphatidylinositol, sphingomyelin and phosphatidylcholine were detected. Differences in skin lipid signal intensities, as well as in their localization, were observed before and after MDT in every patient. In general, lipid distribution in the skin after MDT had a pattern similar to control skin samples, where most of the lipids were located in the upper part of the dermis and epidermis. This study opens paths to a better understanding of lipid functions in leprosy pathogenesis and immune response.It has been brought to my attention in the last couple of days by BP reader Freadrich43 that my understanding of the August 15th signing deadline for NCAA players has been incorrect. I had been operating under the impression that NCAA players leaving school did not have to be signed until August 15th of the year after they graduated. This, as it turns out, was incorrect and I thank Freadrich43 for bringing it to my attention. An NCAA prospect must be signed by August 15th of the summer following their graduation for their rights to be retained by the NHL club.
Site rules are that only players whose rights are held by the Lightning can be included on the Prospects page. That means that for the last year PJ

apparatus for sealing sunroof frame members to each other. The vehicle sunroof mount assembly includes a first frame member mounted to a vehicle structure along a first portion of a vehicle roof opening. The first frame member has a first mount interface. A second frame member is mounted to the vehicle structure along a second portion of the vehicle roof opening and has a second mount interface positioned in an overlapping relationship to the first mount interface. A seal is molded into a portion of one of the mount interfaces and presents an exposed engagement surface for engaging the other of the mount interfaces to seal the first frame member to the second frame member.
Preferably, the two frame members include a first plastic corner and a second aluminumextrusion. The two are placed together, with the gasket being molded onto the plastic corner. The two are then heated, bonding the two together.
The method of sealing sunroof frame members together includes the steps of molding the first frame member from a first material in a pre-formed mold, indexing the mold, molding the seal from a second material into the first frame member while in the mold, and securing a second frame member to the first frame member such that the seal is sandwiched between the first and second frame members.
The use of two-shot molding process to form a seal in a sunroof frame member eliminates the need secondary sealants and provides for a cleaner assembly. This facilitates assembly and reduces cost.

an adjoining restaurant on the south side of Chicago on July 14, 1971. During the course of the attempt armed robbery a patron of the restaurant was shot to death.
Prior to trial defendant moved to suppress a signed statement which he gave on the night of his arrest. At the hearing on this motion Chicago police officers Rutherford Wilson and Robert Tyson were called by the State. They testified that shortly after the crime, acting on information supplied to them by an informant, they obtained a warrant for defendant's arrest. They visited defendant's mother at her home and requested her assistance in securing the surrender of her son. They told her that in view of the outstanding warrant, it might be dangerous for defendant to remain on thestreet. She agreed to assist them.
Early in the evening of July 22, 1971, they returned to defendant's mother's house. Defendant arrived shortly thereafter. They allowed him to say good-bye to a woman they believed to be his wife or girlfriend, his baby and several other women who they understood to be his sisters. Defendant's mother and a friend of the family accompanied them when they transported defendant to the police station. On the way they stopped at a hamburger stand to allow defendant's mother to purchase some food for her son. They informed defendant of his rights as they were driving to the station.
At the station they interrogated defendant for approximately one hour. Defendant responded in the affirmative when they inquired if he desired to make a statement,

and consequently they called for a State's attorney. Initially, defendant refused to talk to the State's attorney. However, he almost immediately changed his mind and was advised of his rights. He gave an oral statement detailing his knowledge of the crime and, in response to questions put to him by the State's attorney, repeated the statement in the presence of a court reporter. Defendant refused to allow the court reporter to take his picture.
*857 Officer Tyson testified that it was his belief that defendant may have had some drinks prior to coming to his mother's house on the evening of July 22. Both officers agreed, however, that neither defendant's speech nor his mannerisms indicated he was intoxicated. Defendant did not consume any liquor in their presence. They didnot sit at the kitchen table and drink with defendant's family when they came to arrest him. They were at the house for approximately 15 minutes. They did not allow defendant to leave their presence. They did not tell either defendant or his mother that he would be better off without an attorney. The subject of securing an attorney for defendant was never mentioned. Defendant did not vomit at the police station.
Brent Carlson, an assistant State's attorney, testified for the State that during the early morning hours of July 23, 1971, he was called to the police station at 91st Street and Cottage Grove Avenue to take a statement from defendant. At first defendant was uncooperative, but when Carlson started to leave, defendant called him back. Carlson advised

him of his rights. He thoroughly explained to defendant his right to counsel. Defendant stated that he understood his rights and gave an oral statement. He was advised of his rights a second time and in response to questioning again gave the statement. This time it was recorded by a court reporter. After the statement was typed, defendant signed it and initialed each page. Defendant's clothes appeared to be unruffled. There was nothing unusual about his eyes, his manner of speaking or the smell of his breath. During the course of the interrogation Carlson sat across a table from defendant, approximately four to six feet away. Defendant never complained of being intoxicated.
Carlson's testimony was substantially corroborated by that of the court reporter.
Defendant testified in support of his motion.In addition, he called his mother, Curtis Allen, John Washington and Sarah Burley, who were friends of his family, and Patricia Smith, who was his girlfriend. Basically it was their testimony that defendant had been drinking all evening on July 22, 1971. Washington, who was sent to look for defendant while the police waited at defendant's mother's house, found him in a bar. When defendant arrived at his mother's house, he began drinking vodka and beer with Officers Wilson and Tyson. The officers allowed defendant to go to a bedroom alone with Patricia Smith, where they had intercourse. Smith testified that defendant's performance was unaffected by the amount he had to drink. Defendant's mother and Curtis Allen accompanied defendant when the police transported him to the station. At

same way. But no one in Europe will share the sentiment.
This imbalance is at the heart of the problems faced by the Club World Cup, organised annually since 2005. The competition replaced the annual match between the champions of Europe and South America, a clash which got off to such a promising start.
The European Cup started in 1955. The Libertadores got under way five years later, with the specific intent of crowning a South American champion to take on the Europeans.

The early ties were epic. By his own reckoning, Pele's best ever performance came in the away leg against Benfica in 1962, when he ran riot as his Santos side won 5-2. For the first fewyears the games were gripping and intense, well-matched affairs, with plenty of quality and the occasional dose of controversy.
But from the mid-60s things started to go awry. Needing money to pay Pele and the rest, Santos pulled out of the Libertadores, as, briefly, did all Brazilian clubs.
The field was left open for teams from Argentina, at a time when, after the thrashing received at the 1958 World Cup, the romantic approach of the 1940s had given way to something darker and more cynical.
Meanwhile, in Europe, ascendency had swung to the north, starting with Celtic in 1967. The cultural clash between northern Europeans and Argentines led to a series of bruising encounters. The intercontinental clash lost prestige, and some in Europe decided that the whole thing was not worthwhile.

most beloved Cleveland topics besides Cleveland weather, Cleveland sports! Big budget projects like these speak to the demand of filmmaking in Cleveland. Growing up in Forrest City wasn't always easy, and throughout all of its ups and downs, Cleveland as a city hasn't always had it easy either.
According to a study prepared by Cleveland State University's Candi Clouse and Nikki Glazer, Box Office Ohio: Analysis and Economic Impact of the Film Industry in Northeast Ohio and Ohio, of 31 projects that took advantage of the Ohio Motion Picture Tax Credit, an estimated $83.2 million was funneled into the economy of Northeast Ohio alone, effectively leaving behind a $22.1 million tax impact on the area. The cost of these projects to the state of Ohio were an estimated $32.6million, yielding a return on that investment of about $2.01 for every $1.00 spent for the Ohio economy. During this time the Ohio area also experienced the creation of over 1700 full-time equivalent jobs, largely held by local millennial professionals. After successfully lobbying to secure the Motion Picture Tax Credit in 2009, The Greater Cleveland Film Commission, a private non-profit organization, whose mission is for the promotion of increased multimedia production, for the economic benefit of regional Ohio, went on to become one of the largest advocates for the production of film in Northeast Ohio and the surrounding area at large. Filmmakers, Artists, Videographers, Choreographers, Chefs, Business owners and even budding even Actors can now rejoice! Cleveland is now a potential destination for the production of large scale

moviemaking! From Plum to The Hollywood of Ohio! A potential market for any outside producers with large budgets and scrolling resumes filled with some of Hollywoods biggest names and titles. However, how has this change panned out in the reality of local professionals attempting to make the next Antwone Fisher, A Christmas Story or Welcome to Collinwood, right here in our own backyard? Each year there are a slew of local based films that take place here in Cleveland from classic zombie based scenarios to 2016's The Land, a soon to be widely released film about coming of age in the perilous inner city streets of Cleveland. Local filmmakers have cited that, although the changes the city have made a positive impact on the city as a marketfor filmmaking it has only made it cheaper for outside entities from larger markets to come in and reap the benefits, such as tax credits, and scenery, without giving a base to local talent to remain and build in a city flourishing with opportunity.Capitalizing on the growing interest in Northeast Ohio filmmaking, my team of professionals based in the area and myself are working tirelessly to put together a short film project, entitled Aea. In support of our cinematic venture we've recently launched a crowdfunding campaign via IndieGoGo.com , not only as a way to cultivate a serious audience but also explore the infrastructure of the indie market in our city. As a director, the climate of filmmaking in Cleveland and being a native son of the city,

fades for Big Sam
Sunderland manager Sam Allardyce left West Ham at the end of last season
Allardyce, appointed Sunderland boss during the international break following Dick Advocaat's resignation, had won his first Premier League match in charge of each of his previous four clubs - Bolton, Blackburn, Newcastle and West Ham.
His side started well at The Hawthorns and could have gone ahead with any one of three chances that came their way during a 60-second spell early in the first half.
Lee Cattermole and Steven Fletcher had shots blocked by Baggies defenders, and from the resulting corner Myhill made a superb reflex save to deny Jones a goal against his former club.
Blatant foul for winner - Allardyce
Jones and fellow full-back DeAndre Yedlin got forward well in support of Sebastian Larsson,Fabio Borini and striker Fletcher, while Sunderland's centre-back pairing of John O'Shea and Younes Kaboul were rarely breached.
However, Sunderland were denied their first clean sheet of the season by a goalkeeping error - Pantilimon's second in consecutive games following the mistake that gifted West Ham a draw in their previous outing.
Pantilimon was adamant he had been fouled by Berahino as they challenged for Brunt's cross, and there were also also claims of handball against the West Brom striker, but referee Martin Atkinson allowed the goal - the 19th that Sunderland have conceded in nine Premier League games this season.
Berahino makes the difference
Only one of Berahino's nine first-half touches was inside the Sunderland penalty area, compared to three out of 15 in the second half

young man, named Ben and a rather attractive security woman again asked for our press I.D. After a brief phone call, Ben escorted us into an elevator. I was excited with the thought of what I would ask Warren; was it true that he sold his interest in the Ambassador Bridge Company? What is it like owning Tastee Freeze? My wife Maries first job after graduating magu cum laude in womens studies from UB was at Tastee Freeze for $1.75 hour in Tucson, Arizona. She cried the day she was fired for mixing up the vanilla and chocolate twists with plain vanilla. She still talks with bitterness about it.
I was lost in my thoughts. When the elevator door opened and we walked into the main corridor, we wereescorted to the best seats in the HSBC Arena, the hundred level seats. Instead of the usual sight of the Sabres warming up in a pre-game skate, the main floor was a panorama of candle-lit tables filled food and liquor. This was the Wizard of Omahas Emerald City awaiting an army of munchkins ready to pay homage.
We took our seats, with thoughts of the coming spectacle that was before us. I thought of what it would be like to be a voyeur at Caligulas birthday party and here we were, observing the world of the Buffalos privileged boyars paying honor to the owner of The Buffalo News, their voice.

it as a little thank you note from Gov. George Pataki.
The monopoly newspaper is the property of Berkshire Hathaway, which in turn is controlled by the second richest human on the planet, Warren Buffett. Since Berkshire acquired a 25% interest in local banking megalith, M&T bank, the editorial staff appears to have favored the Republican politics of M&T Bank President Control Board Bob Wilmers.
Mr. Wilmers road map for the community appears to be taking us off the edge of a precipice as the City of Buffalo has been forced into abject penury, with the Buffalo Board of Education clinging to the rear bumper. Soon to follow, if things go according to schedule, will be the unions of the teachers, firemen and police.
Whos On Top?- Journalism and The MissionaryPosition
Somehow, all of these fun facts seemed to escape Professor Coppolas attention. From the vantage point of his secure ivory tower in Olean, The Buffalo News must be above and beyond critical scrutiny, so much so that it deserves an infomercial. In journalism textbooks the firewalls between journalists and powerful financial entities are secure. In the real world theres this thing called public relations that obliterates such abstract distinctions.
Coppola asked Buffett what, in his opinion, makes a good newspaper. Buffett said, in summary, It really depends on whos on top and what their goals are.
The goals of the people on top at The Buffalo News obviously harmonize with the goals of the people on top of our political caste system. The same politicains representing the same powerful interests

Buffalo, downsizing is the order of the day. Police and Fire represent bloated government bureaucracies that are greedily sucking the life out of the City of Buffalo, the former admirers say. Yesterdays heroes have become todays targets of opportunity for the Buffalo Club elite that now disdainfully holds the purse strings of government in the form of the Citys so-called Control Board.
The Firefighters Union President Joe Foley and Vice President Frank Lucca recently discussed the Citys fiscal crisis and the Unions position with Alt.
There's an average of about 1600 structure fires a year in the city of Buffalo and we respond to about 33,000 calls in a year, Lucca said. For the plan for the reorganization of the stations, the Masiello Administration didn't bother to consult the FireDept, he said, This was done totally without any input from the membership and to me that's a huge mistake. We felt left out.
He also noted that the membership has already been reduced from a high of 930 firemen down to 687. The Masiello Administration has closed 9 companies so far, almost a quarter of the Fire Department's services. About Masiello, he added that, His overwhelming concern seems to be financial and not safety.
Resentment seems to have built up towards both Masiello and County Executive Giambra, since prior to their appointment to the Control Board both Tony Masiello and Former City of Buffalo Comptroller, Joel Giambra cut political deals that placed further burdens on the City's firefighting budget. In 1998, a controversial lease-back arrangement saw the City of

Buffalo sell two firehouses to real estate developers and then rent them back.
The deals turned sour as both Harold Schectman and Dreamco Development, owned by Giambra's sister-in-law Rosanne Lettieri failed to pay taxes and utility bills on the properties. The city also spent three million dollars for a fire station on Elmwood and Virginia. Meanwhile, a firehouse in the same vicinity on Jersey St. that was eligible for federal renovation grants was closed. These deals make it difficult for many firefighters to take the Control Board's so-called reform proposals seriously.
They just said, 'This is what we're doing. You guys figure it out after the fact,' Foley said of the latest plans. The politicians can make all the mistakes they want to and nothing seems to happen. When wemake a mistake, somebody winds up leaving that fire in a body bag.
In discussing the current campaign against the Firemen as represented by the Republican Control Boards heavy-handed tactics, Foley reflected on the perceived cynicism of the Bush Administrations glorification of firefighters and police: The Bush administration after 9-11 says, We love you guys! and then we hear about how important we are to homeland security here in Buffalo on the border with Canada.
Now over two and a half years after the tragedy of the World Trade Center, badly needed federal homeland security money has yet to materialize. Unfortunately, the way it was set up, there's ten million dollars for 04, but we're only given 16 percent of the money, Foley said, The Giambra administration has hijacked 8

Since Stricklins arrival on the scene nearly two years ago, there have been no major studio productions in Western New York for which he can claim credit. Some context is necessary.
There are nearly 200 state, regional, and local film commissions in the U.S., over 300 total around the world, all existing to promote their respective communities. New York State has a Film Commission, and there are six regional commissions: Buffalo Niagara, Rochester Finger Lakes, Capital Saratoga, New York City, Nassau County, and Yonkers. Its an insular world. Film commissioners know each other. They protect each others reputations and watch each others backs. They move in the same circles, go to the same conventions, and have what some see as a relatively cushy, often high-paying job. There are terrificmovies, television series, documentaries, commercials, industrial films in a specific area know what that city, region, or state has to offer. It can be something as simple as the local acting talent pool, to the availability of production equipment, to clearing red tape for permits, to something as complex as financial incentives. Until recently, no states offered tax breaks to production companies. Two recent legislative moves in New Mexico and Louisiana have altered the landscape. Both states are willing to spend large amounts of money and offer tax windfalls to get studios to shoot a movie in their state. Across the border, Canada virtually throws money in the direction of Hollywood, an act that has seen film production mushroom.
New Mexico, Louisiana, and Canada see film production as jobs

I scored an exclusive interview with Howard for my station.
Again, some context is in order. The Jim Carrey star vehicle Bruce Almighty did some background shooting in Buffalo, but the major portion of the production was shot in California. Although he was in charge of the local film commission at the time, Bruce Almighty is a movie for which Stricklin cannot claim credit because the decision to use Buffalo as a back-drop had been made regardless of whether or not there even was a local film commission. Carrey grew up in the Toronto area and recalled his days watching Buffalo television and thought it would be fun to memorialize his youth on-screen. Again, star power. James D. Brubaker, president of physical production for Universal Pictures, a man whosbeen in the business for decades and knows his way around a movie set, told me he had high praise for Mary Summers, County Executive Giambra, his executive assistant Tim Clark, and Pat Kaufman, president of the New York State Film Commission, all of whom worked to bring the project to fruition. Unfortunately, Summers is no longer with the BCVB.
However, regarding the issue of Cinderella Man, Kaufman is decidedly prickly. In fact, she was downright shrill and condescending. Both the movie and the resulting negative publicity have irritated a lot of people. From her Manhattan office, she exploded at me when I telephoned to ask about whether or not Buffalo was ever considered for the shoot. Shrieking at the top of her lungs, she said: IT BELONGED IN

Former president of his Lackawanna mosque, Sahim Alwan, married, was given nine and one-half years. He had faked an ankle injury so that he could leave the training camp early.
The men were charged under the federal anti-terrorism statute with providing material support to al-Quaida which, prior to September 11, 2001, had been designated by the Secretary of State as a foreign terrorist organization. The designation was published in the Federal Register, a thick compendium of federal rules and regulations not found on the shelves of most local public libraries. Specifically, the men were charged with providing material support in the form of training. The training consisted of paying for a uniform, attending the training camp where they learned to use weapons, and standing guard duty. The charges againstthem also specified viewing videotapes concerning the bombing of the USS Cole and speeches by Osama Bin-Laden.
None of the defendants engaged in acts that were, at the time, obviously criminal in nature. It was not until several months after their return from Afghanistan that planes crashed into the World Trade Center, and the United States embarked on its virtually endless war on terrorism.
The maximum sentence faced by the men under the charges brought against them was 25 years. All of the defendants were in their twenties when arrested. Each defendant was convicted on the basis of a guilty plea entered into in order to avoid the possibility of receiving the maximum sentence. As part of the plea arrangement, the Government agreed to forego any right it has to

as a result of the savings accruing from removal of three black common council members. Now it appears that the money was merely transferred into the salaries of the mostly white, unelected Buffalo Fiscal Stability Authority.
The second, and perhaps more disturbing thing about these campaign photos is how uncomfortable and detached Chris Jacobs appears to be amongst the children. None of the photos depict the sort of affection one sees between a popular teacher and his or her students. Maybe that's because Chris Jacobs didn't come up the ranks as a teacher. He was born into the elite. While he was trained as an attorney, its interesting to note that the University of Buffalo's School of Management is named after the Jacobs family.
It appears obvious that the schoolboard aspirations of Chris Jacobs arise not out of some altruistic urge for community service but out of the same motivations of the MBA culture that produced the Savings and Loan scandals in the eighties, the market manipulations of Enron, and finally the presidency of George W. Bush.
Millions of dollars go into public education. Isn't it time to seperate the wheat from the chaff? The success of Mr. Jacobs represents the next chapter in the MBA revolution.
And for future reference when referring to Chris Jacobs, it's always Chris Jacobs, never Mr. Jacobs or Chris or Christopher. After wading through some of the vast inventory of Chris Jacobs P.R. this has become quite clear. It's Chris Jacobs, the average, ordinary guy from Buffalo. The Buffalo News will continue to

the kind of window dressing that helps us cling to our belief that as our soldiers fight and die in a foreign land, our own democracy here in WNY is still alive and well. It's not.
Jack Quinn Leaves GOP High and Dry -
Republican Congressman Jack Quinn created a furor by announcing that he will not run for Congress this November. Conventional wisdom has it that Quinn was able to hold his seat in the largely Democratic district because he was seen as an advocate for organized labor and because he was Irish Catholic.
By removing himself from the race Quinn has left the Republicans in a lurch. Up until this point, the GOP was focused on protecting the seat left vacant by the retirement of Amo Houghton. Tom Delaycrony Tom Reynolds was also facing surprisingly strong opposition in the person of the ex-Republican Akron millionaire, Jack Davis, who started his campaign with $500,000 of his own money. The Quinn news has made a dubious situation that much worse.
None of the candidates mentioned by GOP County Chairman Bob Davis are likely to please the party's extreme right wing currently holding power in Washington. The early frontrunner, Erie County Sheriff Patrick Gallivan will likely run not only on the strength of his celtic DNA, but also on the conviction of the Lackawana Six for which he was a cheerleader. Like we said, dubious.
Prior to Quinn's announcement the only Democrat willing to seriously challenge Jack Quinn was longtime Party stalwart Peter Crotty. Now that there's blood in the water,

June 11, 2001, requesting a special exception permit, which specifies how the temple will be used. Overwhelming opposition was expressed by neighbors including concerns over traffic, size of the building, height of the steeple, and nighttime flood lighting of the exterior.7
The town meeting launched eight months of wrangling between the Church and residents in the form of public hearings, four traffic studies, and environmental reports. Having exhausted its administrative options after its numerous concessions, the Church was left with no option but to file suit on December 17, 2001, accusing the town of infringing on freedom of religion and assembly.8
The spirit of compromise filled members of the Harrison Town Board, who unanimously voted on April 30, 2002, to approve a proposed settlement with the Church, when it becameclear that the town would likely lose in court and spend millions of dollars if legal action were pursued. The agreement resulted in numerous additional concessions by the Church including reducing the building from 56,000 square feet to 28,400 square feet, dropping the number of seats from 200 to 100, lowering the height of the building from 44.7 feet to 34 feet and steeple from 115 feet to 105 feet, trimming the number of parking spaces from 198 to 135, paying for any damage to Kenilworth Road caused by construction, and refraining from building anything else on the property for 15 years after the temple opens.9
In August 2002, the Church announced its plans to build the Manhattan New York Temple inside an existing Church-owned building. Though the seven-year

In 1787, the twenty-eighth year of the reign of King George III, the British Government sent a fleet to colonize Australia.
An epic description of the brutal transportation of men, women and children out of Georgian Britain into a horrific penal system which was to be the precursor to the Gulag and was the origin of Australia. The Fatal Shore is the prize-winning, scholarly, brilliantly entertaining narrative that has given its true history to Australia.news reporting is increasingly attractive to the major traditional media companies.
Protestors in Brazil have for more than a year been voicing their disapproval of the billions of dollars the government has spent of the event, despite more than a quarter of the country living in poverty.
As noted in a recent WAN-IFRA article, crime in the country is on the rise and a recent report from the Brazilian Association for Investigative Journalism said that in the last year there were 170 attacks of reporters covering protests.
While most of these attacks came from police, journalists were also attacked by protestors, with one local newspaper reporter, Bruno Paes Manso, telling WAN-IFRA that some protestors might intentionally target journalists who they believe are not giving an accurate account of the protests.

companys third Wagnerian enterprise in 15 years. Somebody at the drawing board apparently knows where to put the dots.
TheQueen of Spades had been promised once before, in 1990, but was canceled in favor of Verdis Don Carlo with Domingo plus an otherwise forgettable, mostly Russian cast. Of the two Tchaikovsky operas that linger in the repertory, Eugene Onegin may be the more digestible for its thread of human-size emotion; TheQueen is by some odds the more powerful and complex. The opera dates from the time of the Fifth Symphony; its music has that works deep mellowness from clarinets and horns. There is also, surprisingly and delightfully, quite a lot of Mozart, in masterful pastiche: the long orchestral prelude to Act 2, and the ensuing delicious, lightweight pastorale. Betweenthose moments and the others where the heros madness drives the music toward dissonance and grinding counterpoints, this opera may be Tchaikovskys most daring score.
And daring is, as well, the word for the treatment accorded the work. German designer-director Gottfried Pilz dispenses with the librettos scenic suggestions. Pilz has instead created a single performing space, a huge room raked from right to left, dominated overhead by a huge crystal chandelier. A dark area down front at stage level serves as a kind of limbo where the madman-hero Herman, a mere wraith in the darkness, contemplates his demons. The one space serves as park, ballroom, the Countess bedroom and with shadows eerily projected onto the rear wall gaming house. Everything moves, usually at feverish pace; more than

once a chorus bursts into the scene like a flood from a broken dam; the crowds literally dance to Gustavo Llanos whirlwind choreography.
And so does the opera itself, under Gergievs propulsive leadership, with the frazzled bedazzlement of Plácido Domingos Herman, his 60-year-old pipes in near-pristine estate. Russian soprano Galina Gorchakova, her smallish voice nicely colored toward the dark side, was the touching Lisa; mezzo-soprano Susanna Poretsky, a recent winner in the Domingo-sponsored Operalia competition, offered a charming take on her one big aria. The evenings loudest, longest cheers, however, went to the veteran Elena Obraztsova, who had little actually to sing about but whose silent enactment of her moment of death punctuated in Pilzs production only by the fall of her cane onto the resonant floor the sound of Romantic Wagner: resonant, beautifully balanced, even to the great squashy mass of offstage brass tone here and there, and alas, for those given to a posteriori judgments uncut and splendidly broad.
Swedens Gösta Winbergh was the Lohengrin, his tone steely and commanding at first, softening down to a most appealing tenderness later on. Canadian soprano Adrianne Pieczonkas Elsa was as endearing as any I can remember, again spanning a wonderful range, from the dreamy Song to the Breezes to the nagging insistence in the Bridal Chamber scene that brings on her downfall. Tom Foxs Telramund exuded his usual gut-twisting menace. Eva Martons Ortrud was the one major disappointment, not the stipulated mezzo-soprano with her death-dealing tones of darkness and thrust, but an aging soprano

contends that the laws complement federal law and are not designed to usurp federal authority.
The Justice Department filed suit in August to block the law, arguing immigration policy is the exclusive territory of the federal government.
The measure also came under immediate fire from the group of 36 plaintiffs, including civil rights groups, unions and individuals filing a lawsuit in July to try to block it.
Initially, Alabama's law would have criminalized many aspects of daily life for illegal immigrants, barring an illegal immigrant from entering a contract, renting an apartment, attending college, working or even seeking a job.
It also required schools to collect immigration information about new students and ordered that illegal immigrants be held without bond.
She blocked the measure that sought to bar harboring, transporting, encouraging or rentingto illegal immigrants. That measure had been criticized by some Alabama church leaders, and brought a lawsuit by leaders of the state's Catholic, Episcopal and United Methodist churches. Blackburn said she did not think the law was aimed at churches but said the measure went further than a similar federal law.
The judge also blocked other parts of the law, including portions barring illegal immigrants from seeking work or enrolling at Alabama colleges.
The 11th Circuit went further, blocking portions that required schools to obtain immigration information and allowed a state criminal charge against immigrants who are not carrying proof of lawful residency.
But the appeals court left in place the law's requirement that police check immigration status of motorists during traffic stops and other encounters. It also left in place

Differential Expression of the GABAA Receptor Complex in the Dorsal Thalamus and Reticular Nucleus: An Immunohistochemical Study in the Adult and Developing Rat.
The distribution of the GABAA receptor/benzodiazepine receptor/chloride channel complex was investigated in the thalamus of the rat by means of immunohistochemistry in adulthood, as well as during embryonic and postnatal development, using a monoclonal antibody. In adults, the immunoreactivity for the GABAA receptor complex was intensely expressed by neuronal processes throughout the dorsal thalamus. Neuronal perikaryal membranes were frequently outlined by punctate immunostaining; cell bodies, intrathalamic fibre bundles and the internal capsule did not display immunoreactivity for the GABAA receptor. Regional differences in the expression of the receptor were consistently observed: the immunostaining was much lighter in the thalamic reticular nucleus than in the dorsal thalamicnuclei and, among the latter, the anteroventral nucleus and the ventral nuclear complex displayed the most intense immunopositivity. Immunostaining for the GABAA receptor was already expressed in embryos at E14, and was homogeneously distributed throughout the neuropil of the dorsal and ventral thalamic primordia. During the first two postnatal weeks, a regional differentiation of the immunopositivity was appreciable in the thalamus, with a progressive reduction in the reticular nucleus and a parallel increase in the dorsal thalamic structures. Immunoreactive neuronal perikarya were not observed in the thalamus at any developmental stage. The expression of the GABAA receptor complex appeared to have reached a mature configuration by the end of the third postnatal week. These findings indicate that in adults the GABAA receptor is differentially expressed by thalamic nuclear

Operation Rolling Thunder was a United States bombing campaign that was epic in its scale, in the destruction that it generated, in the human efforts wasted and in the resulting disillusionment of a generation in the wisdom of its leading statesmen and military leaders.
Reliance on Air Power to Achieve Victory
At the outset of the American bombing campaign over North Vietnam, the objective was one of strategic persuasion. The U.S. wanted to compel Hanoi to cease its support for the National Liberation Front insurgency in the South. Within the first few months, the mission shifted focus to the interdiction of the flow of North Vietnamese supplies and reinforcements to the South; a tactical mission. This shift coincided with the deployment of ground combat forces to South Vietnam in thesummer of 1965.
In 1964, the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff believed that North Vietnam, a small nation with an industrial base only beginning to recover from its war with the French, would be reluctant to risk its own economic stability for the sake of the insurgency in the south. Civilian leaders in the Johnson Administration agreed with this assessment, although geopolitical concerns led them to disagree over the scope of the air campaign.
The military men advocated a course of action calculated to destroy North Vietnamese will and capacity to continue its support for the insurgency in the south. A list of targets including bridges, railway yards, shipping docks, army barracks and supply depots was drawn up. President Johnson withheld approval. The President and his civilian advisers feared that

an air campaign over North Vietnam might cause the Chinese to send tens of thousands of troops across the border, as they had done in 1950 in Korea.
Initially, U.S. Air Force attacks were mounted from bases in South Vietnam. Over the course of Operation Rolling Thunder, four air bases in Thailand served as launch points for the majority of USAF activity. Aircraft refueled over Laos before continuing on to their targets in North Vietnam. U.S. Navy airstrikes were launched from aircraft carriers cruising off North Vietnam, with the majority of their targets situated in coastal regions.
On U.S. maps, Hanoi and Haiphong were marked by concentric disks. The red, outer disk represented a restricted zone, requiring permission from Washington. The yellow, inner disk represented a zone that was prohibitedin all circumstances. The buffer zone marked by diagonal red stripes was established to prevent violations of Chinese airspace.
Rolling Thunder Gradually Evolves
When the first Rolling Thunder airstrikes were flown in early March 1965, no one thought that the bombing would last for more than a few months, and no one believed that North Vietnam could endure the bombing for more than half a year. Initially the bombing was limited to targets below the 19th parallel, north of the Vietnamese Demilitarized Zone but far south of the Chinese border.
Missions were severely limited by a requirement for approval from Washington for every target, on the timing of every attack and for the types of aircraft and ordnance to be used. The bombing campaign was rolled out in accordance with a

in June 1965, first indications were that the effort would be effective in causing North Vietnam's war machine to literally grind to a halt. The CIA produced an estimate that 70% of their oil facilities had been destroyed. This proved to be only a short-term inconvenience, as Hanoi had dispersed the majority of its reserves across the country, often in small caches of around a hundred barrels. The resilience and endurance of the Vietnamese was proving to be their ultimate resource.
On the ground, large factories in heavily populated regions were split up and scattered into caves and small villages throughout the countryside. In the heavily bombed region just north of the Demilitarized Zone, entire villages were moved into underground tunnel complexes. When North Vietnamese transportation infrastructure became thefocus of bombing raids, destroyed bridges were repaired or were substituted for with dirt fords, cross-stream ferries, and pontoon or sub-surface bridges. When overland supply routes came under attack, freight trains and truck convoys were split into smaller units which only moved at night.
In Code Warriors, Stephen Budiansky states that captured North Vietnamese signals intelligence documents revealed that plain-language U.S. Air Force voice transmissions provided a major source of advance warnings. In 80 to 90 percent of Rolling Thunder missions, the North Vietnamese were aware of the impending attack at least 30 to 45 minutes in advance.
The Manifest Failure of Rolling Thunder

At the end of the service, the speaker had an altar call for those that, wanted to be saved and for those that God was calling them to ministry. Bill went forward because he felt God was calling him to become a missionary like the speaker. At the altar, all of the adults gathered in front to greet the ones who came forward, and when he went forward there was one of the older women there who gave him a great big hug shoving his little 9-year-old head between her big bosoms. For a few seconds, Bill could not breathe and just want this woman to let go of his little head.
Bill loved to learn and especiallyliked learning languages and science. Bill was a member of the Latin Club in high school which would help him in the future to learn other languages like Hebrew, Ancient Greek, and Spanish. He always thought of going to other countries to help the needy as a doctor, but God had other plans for his life. He learned how to knit scarves, sweaters, gloves, and hats that he would give as gifts. Since Bill did not have much money he would knit sweaters or other items for friends and family as Christmas gifts.

Homicide in psychiatric hospitals in Australia and New Zealand.
The aim of this study was to identify and describe the circumstances of homicides that have occurred in inpatient psychiatric facilities in Australia and New Zealand in the past 25 years. Homicides in psychiatric hospitals were identified by an acquaintance chain method. Eleven homicides by ten patients occurred within psychiatric hospital wards in Australia and New Zealand between 1985 and 2010. The homicides fell into three broad categories: homicides by acutely ill patients soon after admission, homicides by forensic patients in low-security settings, and homicides in which vulnerable and elderly patients were victims. Acute psychiatric units should have adequate procedures for controlling acutely ill and physically menacing patients. It is also recommended that patients who have committed serious violence inwas adduced at trial. On July 4, 2004, at around 2 a.m., Cesar Puga
drove Jesus Laras to Margarita Salgado's house at 1309 Grand Boulevard in Aurora. Puga pulled
his car into a driveway across the street from Salgado's house. Puga heard someone shouting. When
he turned around, he saw through his back window that a van was positioned in the street so as to
block the driveway behind him. A streetlight made it difficult to see, but Puga believed that the van
was gray and dark red. Puga saw a chrome-colored gun pointed at him from the van's driver's
window. Puga could not see how many people were in the van, nor whether the individual holding
the gun was a man or a woman. He could, however, see that the person's skin color was

Gangster Disciples, Insane Deuces, and Maniac Latin Disciples were all at war with the Latin Kings.
The State rested. Defendant's motion for a directed verdict was denied. Defendant called
Officer Timothy Jones to the stand. Jones testified that, on July 4, 2004, he spoke with Phillips at
the police station. Phillips told him that, when he entered the van, Ingram was driving and defendant
was in the front passenger seat. Defendant rested.
The trial court granted a mistrial on the mob action count, and the jury returned guilty
verdicts on the three remaining charges. Defendant's motion for a new trial was denied. The trial
court sentenced defendant to 12 years'and Laras, testified that they did not see who
fired the shot. Puga testified only that he saw a gun pointed at him from the van's driver's window,
but he could not identify defendant as the shooter. Defendant's three alleged accomplices, Rayford,
Ingram, and Phillips, testified inconsistently regarding who shot the gun.
On July 4, 2004, Rayford denied any involvement in a shooting. In two later, pretrial
statements that were admitted as substantive evidence, Rayford did not identify defendant as the
shooter. In his August 2004 statement, Rayford specifically stated that he did not know who shot
the gun but that, after the shooting, Phillips came to the back of the van with a gun in his hand. In
an April 24, 2004, taped conversation, Rayford's guardian commented,

accomplices' testimony. On direct examination, Rayford testified
that Ingram was driving. On cross-examination, Rayford confirmed multiple times that Ingram was
the driver and that Ingram and defendant never changed seats. In his August 21, 2004, statement,
however, which was admitted as substantive evidence, Rayford stated that defendant was driving.
Ingram's testimony on this key point was also inconsistent. On direct examination, Ingram
stated that defendant was driving at the time of the shooting. In an August 12, 2004, statement to
the police, Ingram also stated that defendant was driving. However, on cross-examination, Ingram
agreed that, on July 4, 2004, he told the police that he had been driving because defendant was drunk
and that this statement was the truth. He also agreed that, in December 2004, he told Castilloan accountability theory. One of the
defendant's accomplices, Barnes, provided a statement to the police that implicated the defendant
and the other accomplices. Barnes was subsequently granted immunity from prosecution in
exchange for his agreement to testify. At trial, Barnes testified consistently with his prior statement
as to the defendant's participation in the crime, and his testimony was the only evidence connecting
the defendant to the crime. The other two accomplices corroborated Barnes's testimony with respect
to the events surrounding the actual commission of burglary. However, their testimony flatly
contradicted Barnes's testimony regarding the defendant's involvement in the crime. The jury found
the defendant guilty, and the appellate court reversed.
Our supreme court affirmed, holding that Barnes's testimony simply failed to remove all
reasonable doubt of the defendant's guilt. Newell, 103

Disposable diapers as heretofore produced employ an absorbent pad assembly positioned between a top sheet and a backing sheet. The absorbent pad assembly included wadding sheets at the top and bottom thereof. To stabilize the absorbent pad assembly, the cold or hot melt adhesives were employed between the wadding sheets of the absorbent pad assembly and the top sheet or backing sheet or both. The use of the wadding sheets caused lessened suppleness of the diaper and the use of adhesives further lessened the suppleness of the diaper.

but they represent an incomplete and therefore unbalanced agenda. Cultivation of the structural policy ecosystem that underpins the diffusion of living standards within a modern market economy requires parallel and equal attention. This rebalancing of the growth and development process is part of the unfinished business of recovery from the financial crisis as well as an important lesson to be drawn from the social backlash against globalization in some countries. By virtue of their public profile and intimate relationship with the economic ministries of governments, the major international economic organizations have a vital role to play in the establishment and scaled application of this new and more inclusive growth model. See Box 8 with a perspective from the International Monetary Fund.
Third, major improvements are needed in three specificimprove the cross-country inclusivity and social responsibility of global supply chains. The platform would facilitate cooperation between governments seeking to integrate their economies with international supply chains and the companies and experts who could be their partners. The action orientation of the partnership would be underpinned by important new analytical efforts to map existing value chains and impediments to their expansion in new geographies. It would also assemble examples of good practice that can inform the strategies of developing countries to maximize the objective of sustainable development from their participation in these production networks.

the eastern coast of South America, and the northern coast of Antarctica ice free. The northern coastline of Antarctica is perfectly detailed. The most puzzling however is not so much how the Piri Reis Antarctica map managed to so accurate 300 years before it was discovered, but that the map shows the real coastline under the ice. Geological evidence confirms that the latest date Queen Maud Land could have been charted in an ice-free state is 4000 BC.
On 6th July 1960 the U. S. Air Force responded to Prof. Charles H. Hapgood of Keene College, specifically to his request for an evaluation of the ancient Piri Reis Map:
TO: Prof Charles H. Hapgood, Keene College
Dear Professor Hapgood,
Your request of evaluation of certain unusual features of the Piri Reis Antarcticathe Mediterranean and the Aegean seas, and other known routes, just like the sailing book which Piri Reis himself had written. But a few reported of still unknown lands, and were circulating among a few sailors who seemingly kept their knowledge about those special maps as hidden as they could. Columbus is supposed to have been one of those who knew these special sailing charts. To draw the Piri Reis Antarctica map he used several different sources, collected here and there along his journeys. He has written his own notes on the map that give us a picture of the work he had been doing. He says he had been not responsible for the original surveying and cartography. His role was merely that of a compiler who used

Later, St. Zosimas encountered her wandering naked in the desert. After asking him to provide her a cloth for warmth, she told him to meet her for Holy Communion by the Jordan. Zosimas brought the Holy Communion and Mary walked across the water to meet him. She told him to meet her there again for Lent the next year. There, he found her dead by the river. She had somehow died the night after he last served her communion, but her body remain preserved. He buried her nearby. Zosimas then recounted her story and wrote it down for future generations.

Posted on July 18, 2013
Adding to the tally of players scouted at the New York Pro Soccer Combine is Kevin Garcia, a defender who played college soccer at Villanova University before earning a short stint with the MLS club, New England Revolution. With his MLS experience not being what he had hoped for, Garcia decided to participate at the Pro Soccer Combine in order to gain exposure to a multitude of visiting pro soccer clubs.
Displaying his solid talents, Kevin Garcia has been rewarded with a trial with a Swedish Division 1 Norra club, IFK Lulea. Because of the large pool of American soccer players produced by the college soccer system in this country, there are a large number

danger, the locked-on forest defenders remained there for several hours and continued to call for immediate stopping of all the logging and for biodiversity experts to inspect the logging location. The forest guards made no attempt to remove the blockaders till finally the contractor operating the harvester agreed to seize work for the day and remove the equipment from the forest.
Białowieża Forest is the last remnant of primodial forest that once stretched across the European Plain. With its ancient trees draped in multitude of mosses, lichens and fungi it is a hotspot of biodiversity supporting the largest wild herd of European Bison, populations of Wolves, Lynx and 180 bird species, including three-toed woodpeckers and Eurasian pygmy owls.The survival of this ecosystem is at stake as large portions ofBiNational Park on the Bielorussian side have been selectively logged over the years for its oldest and largest trees. Now this is extensively happening on the Polish side of the forest with over 40,000 cubic meters of lumber harvested in 2017. Bark Beetle outbreak is being used as justification for salvage logging during which the bark containing the eggs of the beetle is left on site, unafected species such as oaks are cut as well while the Polish enviromental minister Jan Szyszko, who is behind this wave of clear cutting, has set up a series of lumber shell companies involving some of his closest relatives.
Numerous international calls for immediate stop of logging included the Unesco Congress in Cracow on July 3rd adopting a resolution for immediately halt to

signed. In that report, she stated she saw Reynoso face down in the snow but did not see anyone
running in the alley or any police cars in the area, including in the gas station parking lot. This
interview took place in January 2008.
¶ 32 Stiles testified that she did not witness the shooting and did not remember many things
that happened that night. Sergeant David Betz was taking notes as she talked to him, and she told
him that she had been in a bar earlier that night. Stiles testified that she did not remember if she

Antwan Barnes: An ankle injury early in the season cost him some time, but the kid can come off the edge. A good off-season in the weight room, plus either the return of Trevor Pryce or the addition of another pass rusher will make him dangerous. He needs to become an every down linebacker capable of stopping the run and covering. In time, I am sure that coaches Mike Pettine and Jeff FitzGerlad will get him up to speed.

could be improved for quicker commute times to Melbourne; the Gold Coast light rail, currently under construction, could run to the NSW border and connect with a boutique commuter line through the Tweed Heads-Murwillumbah-Lismore hinterland. But Fischer's plans also go beyond just Australia. A couple of months ago in Rome, the ambassador from Benin called on him, ostensibly about a Vatican issue. When matters papal concluded, the envoy of the small west African country quizzed Fischer about how rebuilding the colonial-era freight and passenger lines could boost its economy. Fischer wants to realise Cecil Rhodes's dream of a north-south line between Cairo in Egypt and Cape Town in South Africa - ''unlikely in my lifetime,'' he says - but thinks an east-west line along the Mediterranean coast, linkingMorocco with Egypt, via Algeria, Tunisia and Libya, is more realistic.
With its remaining rail systems being largely antique, Africa also sums up for Fischer the emotional, almost psychic, power of the railways. ''There is just a soothing clickety-clack,'' he writes in Trains Unlimited, ''although this is no longer the case in Europe and North America, where the railways are all welded, but is still happily the case in many parts of Africa.'' Fischer's travels, official and personal, have taken him to 72 countries, 60 of which have extensive rail systems. One weekend a month, since taking up his post as ambassador to the Holy See in 2009, Fischer has escaped Rome to ride the rails, often deep into eastern Europe and as far as Poland. In Vietnam, where

The Snowden revelations led to a hasty withdrawal from Iraq, arguably freeing up a further vacuum in which jihadists could operate. The technology revolution has been taken advantage of more successfully by extremists to engage followers to their global movement than by those who oppose them.
The ability of ISIS to engage millennials and tap into broader anti-establishment sentiment around the world has certainly boosted their numbers.
This cannot all be blamed on Tony Blair and his part in the decision to invade Iraq.

So too must we counter the claim that the Iraq War radicalised thousands of British Muslims. The Iraq War was undoubtedly a significant grievance for many of those who have gone to commit acts of terrorism, but we know that grievance alone is insufficient –

of 706 Polish refugees from Iran to Mexico, anchored for a short time at Wellington, the wife of the Polish Consul, Countess Maria Wodzicka, visited them and conceived an idea of bringing some of the other Polish orphans from Iran to New Zealand. She shared her idea with Prime Minister Peter Fraser's wife, and eventually that idea become a reality when Mr Fraser and his government offered hospitality to 733 Polish children and 102 staff who were to accompany them. So the journey from Isfahan to Pahiatua began.
On 1 November 1944, Mr Fraser, the Polish Consul Count Kazimierz Wodzicki and his wife Countess Maria Wodzicka welcomed the children to New Zealand on board the USS General Randall in Wellington. That same day, the last part of the longjourney was completed by two special trains from Wellington to Pahiatua.
The Polish children were farewelled from Wellington Railway Station by hundreds of Wellington school children waving New Zealand and Polish flags. There were also big welcomes at Palmerston North and Pahiatua, and all along the way there were groups of children waving to the arrivals. In a gesture of further goodwill, some of those children were driven to other railway stations to cheer on the refugees again.
Thirty-three army trucks transported the arrivals from Pahiatua station to the old internment camp whose official name was now the Polish Children's Camp in Pahiatua. At last they had a new home. The long journey was over.
Ladies from Pahiatua's Polish Children's Hospitality Committee prepared the beds, put flowers on tables and tidied

up the camp for their arrival. The camp was administered by the New Zealand army. All army maintenance staff took orders from Camp Commandant Major Foxley. In addition, the page 25Polish administration was headed by the Polish Delegate Jan Śledziński and the Polish staff received their orders from him.
All teaching at the camp was in Polish and even some of its street names were in Polish. It was intended that after the war all the children and staff would return to Poland. However, after the Russians had pushed the Germans back across Poland in 1945, the Russians installed a pro-Soviet communist government in Poland and retained, with some adjustments, the territories occupied in 1939. It was at this stage that the New Zealand Government assured the children andstaff that they were welcome to remain in New Zealand.
The limited financial assistance from the Polish Government-in-Exile in London soon came to an end and the New Zealand Government took over the entire financing of the camp. The Polish authorities were aware of the huge costs of running the camp, and it was decided to try to lower them by cultivating a vegetable garden, and taking over the running of the laundry and kitchens.
The children performed their duties and chores outside of school hours by cleaning the campgrounds, working in the vegetable gardens, cutting the grass, washing dishes, and also tidying their dormitories, classrooms and washrooms. To help them get acquainted with the New Zealand way of life, the army and Catholic hierarchy collected 830 invitations from New

that they were pulling their ads from the Discovery Channel/TLC's All-American Muslim series.
All-American Muslim features programs following the lives of ordinary people in Dearborn, Michigan, and showing that they're just ordinary folks living ordinary lives, not the caricatures that FFA and other anti-Muslim fetishists divisively want us to falsely believe.
This comes as no surprise to me. My corner of suburban L.A. is deeply multicultural, and includes a large mosque and Muslim community, among virtually every other ethnic group and nationality on the planet, from Iranian to Australian to Nigerian. To actually know people as individuals is to realize that our similarities vastly outweigh our relatively trivial differences.
But it's in the interests of groups like FFA to keep such knowledge suppressed, and to encourage the promulgation of lying stereotypesVirtues of Fairness There is a fourth and straightforward principle that is rational for the parties in the Moral Original Position to agree upon. Given that it is rational to agree to the Principles of Negative and Positive Fairness and the Principle of Fair Negotiation in the Moral Original Position, it is also rational to develop and express stable character traits-or psychobehavioral dispositions-to apply and act in conformity with the first three principles of fairness. After all, such traits simply are the disposition of being motivated to apply and act in accordance with three principles of fairness-which, as we have just seen, are rational to agree upon from the standpoint of the Moral Original Position.

of the camps.
A lot of the German POW camps in Michigan were formerly CCC camps and filled mainly with Germans that were forced into service in Hitler's army that fought in Africa. Therefore, they were not thought of as too terribly dangerous and were brought here to work at various camps. Of course there were some SS soldiers that were definitely in the Nazi category and locals usually steered clear of them. These camps were not forced labor camps, in fact, the POWs liked being able to go out and do something, plus the ones cutting pulpwood in Michigan's U.P. were paid $.80 per day. The work the German POWs performed was in areas where there were shortages of labor due to the war effort.
After the war endedthe German POWs were sent back to Germany. Many of the prisoners would have liked to have remained here, but due to regulations they had to return to their home country. The German POW camps in Michigan were an interesting part of Michigan's history that I am glad to have found. I still can't believe it took me so long to hear about all of these POW camps and how they have been buried in our history books.

The Longy Faculty Union is deeply saddened by the news of the sudden loss of our colleague Bob Honeysucker. In addition to his full and rich professional life, Bob also served the Longy faculty as a faithful member of the Bargaining Committee throughout a full year of intense negotiations for the successor Collective Bargaining Agreement. He was currently serving as Chair of the Faculty Planning Committee, as well as Representative-at-Large on the Executive Board. The most important thing about Bob, though, was that he was a fine human being, a really great guy. Bob's commitment to Longy - faculty, students and the school as a whole - was constant and generous, and his loss will be felt profoundly by all.this position was arbitrary, capricious and in violation of applicable statutes and regulations.

unbroken series of international setbacks for the United States during her time as Secretary of State.
Before Barack Obama entered the White House and appointed Mrs. Clinton Secretary of State, Al Qaeda operatives in Iraq had notified their higher ups, stationed in Pakistan, that their cause was lost in Iraq and that there was no point sending more men there.
Hosni Mubarak was in charge in Egypt. He posed no threat to American or Western interests in the Middle East or to Christians within Egypt or to Israel. But the Obama administration threw its weight behind the Muslim Brotherhood, which took over and began terrorizing Christians in Egypt and promoting hostility to Israel.
In Libya next door, the Qaddafi regime had already given up its weapons of mass destruction, after theysaw what happened to Saddam Hussein in Iraq. But President Obama's foreign policy, carried out by Secretary of State Clinton, got Qaddafi removed, after which Libya became a terrorist haven where an American ambassador was killed, for the first time in decades.
The rationale for getting rid of Middle East leaders who posed no threat to American interests was that they were undemocratic and their people were restless. But there are no democracies in the Middle East, except for Israel. Moreover, the people were restless in Iran and Syria, and the Obama-Clinton foreign policy did nothing to support those who were trying to overthrow these regimes.
It would be only fair to balance this picture with foreign policy triumphs of the Obama-Clinton team. But there are none. Not in the

Ancient Egyptians created animal mummies for various reasons. Some were household pets buried alongside their deceased owners, or other animals that held special importance to the humans around them. Some mummified animals were intended as food offerings to humans in the afterlife. Many others were created to serve as sacred offerings to the gods, who in ancient Egypt often took animal form, including cats, cows, falcons, frog, baboons and vultures, among many others.
Animals mummified for this last purpose were available for purchase or barter at sacred sites. The people who bought them would often give them to a priest, who would then bury collections of the animals as a gift for the gods. This practice, similar to the act of lighting a votive candle at a church, wasso widespread in ancient Egypt that animal mummification exploded into big business. Archaeologists have found 30 catacombs in Egypt, each one dedicated to a single animal and each packed floor to ceiling with mummies, for a total numbering in the millions.
In the largest study of its kind, researchers at the Manchester Museum and the University of Manchester have used X-rays and CT scans to examine more than 800 ancient Egyptian animal mummies, many of which are now housed in British museums. The animals examined ranged from birds to cats to crocodiles, with many others in between. While a third of the mummies contained the well-preserved remains of complete animals, researchers found only partial remains in another third of the mummies. Most shockingly, one third of the mummies have

the 1980s.
Steve Castle wanted to beat Mom's Friendly Delivery Company, and found himself in a negotiation meeting with Mom. But contrary to what Fry had believed in him, he ended up selling Planet Express to Mom. At the Intergalactic Stock Exchange, PlanEx, the new name for the company, was to be taken over by Mom, and with the stocks he bought from Dr. Zoidberg, he had majority control of the company, so the sale went ahead. Although initially opposed to the sale, the rest of the Planet Express crew quickly became supporters of it once they learned that the value of their stock had skyrocketed upon news of the merger.
Unfortunately, during the sale, his fatal disease, boneitis, began its final stages and killed him while he was onthe stage. Fry, as vice-chairman, took over the company and his stock. He immediately moved to cancel the deal, but was stopped by the rest of the crew who were more interested in being rich than continuing to work with each other. Fry began an address to attendees of the merger expressing his feelings, which caused the value of Planet Express stock to plummet. The value reached three cents per share upon Fry revealing that a nightgown-clad Professor Farnsworth was to be the new head of the company. Once aware of this fact, Fry triumphantly cancelled the merger.

vessel interior, depending on the surgical procedure. Examples of such instrumentation include dilators, angioplasty balloon catheters, stent deployment catheters, angiographic instruments, thrombectomy devices and embolization instruments. These instruments typically having an outer diameter close to the internal diameter of the introducer sheath which means they will usually abut the inside wall of the sheath. This relatively tight fit oftentimes results in excessive frictional engagement with the inside wall of the sheath, causing dislodgement of the sheath during instrument withdrawal through the passageway in the sheath. Additionally, surgical instrumentation which include an inflatable balloon, when initially inserted through the sheath have a smaller diameter because the balloon is tightly wrapped around the catheter. However, after the balloon is inflated inside the vessel and then deflated for withdrawal, it isselectively extendable with respect to the sheath, thereby functioning to retain the sheath within the vessel. Extending the retainer radially from the introducer sheath creates an enlarged diameter region greater than the diameter of the incision into the vessel to prevent withdrawal of the sheath through the incision, and in smaller vessels, enabling the retainer to frictionally engage the vessel wall to restrict sliding movement of the sheath.
More specifically, the present invention provides a surgical vascular introducer sheath comprising first and second members and a retainer. The first member has a first longitudinally extending lumen configured and dimensioned to receive a surgical instrument therethrough and a first side opening in an outer wall in fluid communication with the first lumen. The second member has a second longitudinally extending

lumen configured and dimensioned to receive the first member and a second side opening in the outer wall in fluid communication with the second lumen. The retainer is positioned at a distal portion of the first member and is movable from a first retracted position to a second extended position to limit proximal movement of the introducer. Preferably, rotational movement of the first member in a first direction moves the retainer to the extended position and rotational movement in a second direction moves the retainer to a retracted position and moves the first and second side openings from a non-aligned position to an aligned position.
Preferably, the retainer comprises a flap having a curved configuration in the extended position and an opening to allow blood flow therethrough.
The introducer sheathmay further comprise a locking mechanism for maintaining the retainer in the extended position. The locking mechanism may comprise a locking pin slidable within a locking groove having a narrowed section to retain the pin. Preferably, a proximal portion of the first and second members is positioned within a housing with the locking groove positioned on the housing and the locking pin extending from the first member. The housing may further have an internal keyway slot to receive a key extending from the second member to prevent rotation of the second member.
The introducer sheath may include a second retainer movable in response to rotation of the first member between retracted and extended positions to limit proximal movement of the introducer sheath.
The present invention also provides a surgical sheath

for providing a passageway for instrumentation into a vessel comprising a first tubular member having a first lumen extending longitudinally therein configured and dimensioned for receiving surgical vascular instruments therethrough, a second tubular member having a second longitudinally extending lumen wherein at least a portion of the first tubular member is positioned within the second lumen of the second tubular member, and a retainer extendable from the first tubular member. The retainer is spaced proximally from a distalmost tip of the first tubular member and limits proximal movement of the sheath with respect to the vessel to prevent dislodgement of the sheath from the vessel incision. The retainer is movable from a first position to a second position extending laterally with respect to the tubular member in responseto rotational movement of the first member.
The retainer preferably comprises a flap having a curved configuration in the extended position, with the flap extending longitudinally alongside the sheath. The flap preferably comprises a spring-like member movable to the second position in response to rotational movement of the first member, with the second member having an opening to allow movement of the spring-like member to the second position.

concerned for his physical well being, Gordon's mother withdrew him from the District in January 1978. Gordon was placed in Angie Nall Hospital, a private residential facility for medically and emotionally impaired children. As a result of plaintiffs' limited financial resources, Gordon was withdrawn from Angie Nall in 1978 and enrolled in West Briar School, a private facility in Houston, Texas. West Briar does not maintain a special education program, however, and after a near-suicidal episode which resulted in Gordon's hospitalization in the psychiatric unit of Bellaire General Hospital for four months, school authorities determined that Gordon's emotional problems prevented him from benefitting from West Briar's educational program. Thus, in April 1979 Gordon returned to AISD, where he was identified as a handicapped child within the meaning ofto recompense parents for the costs of those services the school district failed to provide. Anderson, supra, at 1213-14.
The Anderson court concluded that a second exceptional circumstance would exist when a school district acts in bad faith by failing to comply with the procedural provisions of 20 U.S.C. § 1415 in an egregious fashion:
These provisions were Congress's way of assuring appropriate programming for handicapped children.... In the event of disagreement, Congress intended that parents could present a meaningful challenge to the school district's program and receive fair and impartial hearings. In essence, parents were to rely on compliance with the statute through two levels of administrative hearings before they could seek judicial relief. Congress could not have intended however, that parents would keep their child in an inappropriate

JaVale McGee has landed what might be his last NBA shot, agreeing to a contract with the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday, announced the team:
ESPN's Marc Stein reported the center would get a two-year contract.
McGee, 27, played for the Denver Nuggets and Philadelphia 76ers last season. His Sixers run ended after an aborted six-game stint and March buyout, after which he was not signed by another team. The Celtics initially pursued McGee when he became available, but the deal fell apart when neither side could agree which would get an option for 2015-16.
Philadelphia is still paying McGee as part of its buyout agreement, so the finances of any deal for McGee were never that important. Finding the right fit, however, could be the difference between him revivinghis NBA career and it being over.
Sacramento became an early favorite for him this summer, especially amid the DeMarcus Cousins uncertainty. Marc J. Spears of Yahoo Sports reported the Kings had interest in McGee before the draft. Coach George Karl is perhaps the only NBA coach to come close to reaching the enigmatic center.
Christopher Szagola/Associated Press
McGee has been limited to 28 appearances over the last two seasons due to injuries and ineffectiveness. A stress fracture in his left tibia limited him to five games in 2013-14, and he was largely jettisoned from the rotation in Denver when he returned last season.
While he's long been recognized for his extreme physical gifts, McGee's mental errors have made him a source of constant frustration. He's the closest thing one could possibly

Gareth Bale's proposed transfer to Chinese Super League side Jiangsu Suning has been called off by Real Madrid after the Wales international's family opted against making the move, according to ESPN FC sources.
News the deal had collapsed was first reported by the BBC, and sources have told ESPN FC another reason for the breakdown was that Jiangsu would only agree to a free transfer, while Madrid were looking for a fee for Bale.
- When does the 2019-20 La Liga season start?
Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane had said recently that he was hopeful Bale, 30, would leave Madrid this summer.
The 13-time European champions are keen to sign Paul Pogba, with Manchester United seeking upwards of £150 million for the France international, and getting Bale's wages off the books would haveDanish Superliga.
In his first season at Næstved Boldklub he won bronze as the club finished third in the Danish league. In 1988, he won silver medal as Næstved Boldklub finished runners-up. In 1994, he won the silver medal as Næstved Boldkub lost the Danish Cup final against Brøndby IF.

In this regard, it is desirable to provide a guard for the third rail of electric railroads which are supported on insulators relative to the ground. The guards function as a shield to prevent accidental contact by personnel or foreign objects with the third rail, while at the same time, permitting engagement with the third rail by the electrical locomotive. The guards are attached to brackets of insulating material which are attached to the third rail in spaced apart locations. As the guards extend for many miles, they are typically formed in sections which can be releasably attached to the brackets by means of a split or clevis pin. This enables replacement of the guard of a particular section in the event the guard becomes damaged.

One face from those days is still around and I regularly see him at party conference: Viv Bingham. Viv is an institution. He's never been an MP, but was party president from 1981-1982, and is a tireless campaigner. At the most recent Lib Dem conference, he delivered an impassioned speech in favour of co-operatives and customer/employee ownership of businesses. His amendment to the motion having been accepted, Viv went on in the evening to lead us all in a rendition of We Shall Overcome at Glee Club, as he doesfor how not to annoy bar staff is required reading for anyone who's ever been in a pub, she opposes the smoking ban on liberal grounds, and she's not afraid to tell anyone what she thinks of their policies.

Alex Wilcock is another Liberal Doctor Who fan. I first met him in person at the Leyton and Wanstead PPC selection meeting a couple of years ago, and was a somewhat embarrassingly effusive fanboy at him.

His public defender filed a written plea of not guilty on May 18, 1989. Arraignment was held in June, based on the written plea, and pretrial was set for July 17, 1989. White failed to appear at pretrial, and a capias was issued for his arrest based on his failure to appear and the charges in the information.
White was finally arrested on the capias on April 8, 2000. He filed a written plea of not guilty and moved to dismiss the information on the ground that the State had not commenced his prosecution within the applicable statutes of limitations.

discuss his possible cooperation with the government in the prosecution of Kurtz and Infanti. He further stated that the most he would have told Seiller in accordance with his standard practice was that, if Seiller cooperated fully and testified truthfully and candidly, this would be made known to the sentencing judge. Seiller was not called as a witness at the trial of Kurtz and Infanti because Mr. McDermott had concluded after his discussions with Seiller that he would not be a credible witness since he was evasive and consistently attempted to minimize his own criminal involvement in the conspiracies. Seiller's former attorney, Mr. Cally, categorically denied in an affidavit that he ever had told Seiller that he could expect a suspended sentence.
26
In a reply affidavitSeiller admitted that the portion of the McDermott affidavit on the matter of leniency was accurate. Seiller alleged, however, that Mr. McDermott had told him that the court would be informed about his willingness to cooperate and that he also had told him that leniency could be expected. Seiller asserted that the reason he had not been called as a witness was because he knew too little to be of value to the prosecution. Seiller also admitted the accuracy of the Cally affidavit. He alleged, however, that Mr. Cally had told Seiller's wife in Seiller's presence that he thought Seiller could expect a suspended sentence.

upon speculation or cast the burden upon Seiller of proving that his guilty knowledge was only obtained sometime after the indictment was filed. Having admitted that he later learned that the securities in issue were stolen, it was the obligation of the court to ascertain the time of the origin of this knowledge and the nexus between that knowledge and Seiller's then-role in the conspiracy.
69
Aside from this, I would emphasize that Seiller's only admission of personal activity in the criminal enterprise was the introduction of his partners to the prospective purchasers. There is nothing in the record to establish any further activity by him and he said that he did not know at that time that the subjects of the sale were stolen. It isfurther noteworthy that, although the indictment charges a continuing conspiracy, the only overt acts charged in Count One of indictment 71 Cr. 675 which mention Seiller are a meeting and the sending of a telex, both on one day, September 29, 1969. In Count One of indictment 71 Cr. 676, Seiller's overt acts are the sending of letters on the 19th, 24th and 29th of December, 1969, plus a telex on December 27, 1969. In sum, as far as the record before us discloses, Seiller's only participation was limited to arranging introductions over a very brief period of time late in 1969, with nothing to indicate any further factual participation by him in 1970 and 1971. Hence, even if we were permitted to speculate, the

argument might be plausible if the change of plea proceedings consisted solely of Seiller's responses to the court's questions as to the factual basis for his change of pleas. But that is not the case here. Seiller's responses must be viewed in the context of the proceedings as a whole. As we have pointed out, pp. 557-558, 563, supra, those proceedings included the reading in full of the relatively simple charges, Seiller's admissions that he understood the charges, and his separate pleas of guilty to each charge. Moreover, Seiller admitted that he had discussed the charges and his rights fully with his attorney.

not have come true had she kept her daughter. There had been no available foster homes until Keira was four years old, so for the first four years of her life, Keira stayed in a group home. The people that ran it did not care about the children, only about the paycheck they received, and the other kids in the home were cruel or scared. Keira's first four years were completely devoid of any kind of love, turning her into a sociopath.
After that, she bounced around from home to home, getting kicked around for things like getting into fights, stealing, general behavioral problems, until finally she was diagnosed at the age of twelve. No one would take in a sociopath, and the group homes didn't even bother tokeep track of their wards. So no one noticed when Keira was taken in by a street pimp. He groomed her, bought her beautiful things that she'd never had before, and basically treated her like a princess. When she was firmly wrapped around his finger, he tried to rent her out.
Keira wasn't having any of that. She may have believed she was in love with him, but the first time he left one of his 'friends' alone with her was also the last. That was when she discovered her powers; she kept pushing him away and finally she heard the man screaming. When she looked up, there was a burn on his chest in the shape of her hand and her hands were on fire. Most people would

River in Dorchester and Wicomico counties were treated to control Phragmites. Removing this plant restores the marsh, protecting part of Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge and nearby private land from storms. The restored marsh also provides public hunting and fishing opportunities and supports nature tourism in the town of Vienna, MD.
Located in the center of Anne Arundel County, the South River Greenway is one of the last remaining intact forest tracts and stream valley wetlands in the county including 100 miles of streams, 800 acres of wetlands and 6,000 acres of forest. The tiny streams meandering through this area eventually drain into the South River.
A collaborative effort is underway to protect and restore the wildlife and natural resources here. It is an especially important area to forest interior birdsand reptiles. The American eel is currently found in the streams in the watershed, and river herring historically spawned here.
Just as important are the ecosystem functions provided by the intact forest such as cooling and slowing stream water and filtering stormwater entering the South River and, ultimately, the Chesapeake Bay.
Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell announced today that due to concerted conservation efforts by landowners and other partners, the Delmarva Peninsula fox squirrel, one of the animals included on the first list of endangered species nearly a half century ago, has recovered across many parts of its historic range, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is proposing to remove it from Endangered Species Act protection.

conference to press for a Palestinian state and to challenge Israeli annexation of all of Jerusalem, as well as to assert its right to nuclear-generated electricity.
The United States and Israel were unhappy about the Non-Aligned Movement meeting in Iran, since they are attempting to isolate that country economically. Indeed, US sanctions and boycotts on Iran have reached the level of a financial blockade on Iranian petroleum exports. Tel Aviv and Washington, with some buy-in from London and Paris, are attempting to do to Iran what was done to Iraq in the 1990s, destroy its economy and reduce it to a fourth world country, in hopes of fostering regime change or at least changes in regime behavior.
There is no go evidence of an Iranian nuclear weapons program, and Israeliformer Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarak, who had imprisoned Morsi and many members of his party. Romney will likely have tense relations with Morsi and the new Egypt.
The US is already perceived in the global South as acting irrationally and vindictively against their companies for perfectly innocent trade with Iran, and for making petroleum prices higher with its attempted financial blockade of that country. If Romney is, as he has suggested, to ramp up tensions with Iran further, and perhaps even intends military action, these global divisions will grow, perhaps to crisis proportions. Military action in the Gulf would certainly send gasoline/ petrol prices sky high and possibly further derail world recovery from the deep global recession.

Berra has scored three goals in three in his last three games
Derby County dropped their first points at home this season as Christophe Berra secured a draw for Ipswich Town.
Chris Martin stabbed the opener home for Derby after Dean Gerken saved his initial header and Johnny Russell had an effort cleared off the line.
Centre-back Berra headed the equaliser from a Paul Anderson free-kick.
Rams goalkeeper Lee Grant denied Anderson and Teddy Bishop, while Martin and Leon Best both had chances to win it for the home side.
The draw extends Ipswich's unbeaten run at Derby to seven meetings, dating back to December 2008.
Back to the beginning for McClaren Before officially taking charge of Derby County, Steve McClaren helped inspire the Rams to a 4-4draw at home against Ipswich. Derby were training 4-1 at the break when former England boss went into the dressing room to speak to his new players.
Derby will anxiously await news of Republic of Ireland international Jeff Hendrick, who was taken to hospital with a serious looking injury to his right arm.
Martin got Derby off to a strong start with his fourth goal of the season, taking advantage after Luke Hyam failed to clear Jamie Ward's cross.
Gerken reacted well to deny last season's top scorer for Derby and Jonathan Parr was on the line to foil Russell, but former Norwich City man Martin eventually took his second chance by turning the ball home on the back post.
Derby had a penalty shout turned down when Hendrick appeared to be
