more of Blige's songwriting than any of her previous efforts. The Mary J. Blige on No More Drama seemed miles away from the flashy kid on What's the 411?, yet it was still possible to see the path through her music that produced an older, wiser, but still expressive artist. In 2003 she was reunited with P. Diddy, who produced the majority of that year's patchy Love and Life album. The Breakthrough followed two years later and was a tremendous success, spawning a handful of major singles. By the December 2006 release of Reflections (A Retrospective), The Breakthrough's lead single, "Be Without You," had spent nearly a year on the R&B chart, while the album's fifth single, "Take Me as I Am," had been on the same chartfor over four months. A year later Blige came out with her eighth studio album, Growing Pains. It was her third consecutive studio album to top both the Billboard 200 and the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts. While on tour with Robin Thicke during 2008, Blige began working on Stronger with Each Tear, which was released near the end of the following year and came one spot short of topping the Billboard 200. My Life II...The Journey Continues (Act 1), previewed through the Eric Hudson-produced single "25/8," followed in 2011 with appearances from Beyoncé, Drake, Rick Ross, and Busta Rhymes. Like her previous nine studio albums, it reached gold status. (Her first eight surpassed gold to reach either platinum or multi-platinum status.) Her first holiday album, A Mary Christmas, was released

in 2013. Early in 2014, she linked with Disclosure for an alternate version of the U.K. dance-production duo's single "F for You." A few months later, Blige -- supported by extensive assistance from the-Dream and Christopher "Tricky" Stewart, as well as a few other associates -- provided the soundtrack to the comedy Think Like a Man Too. It entered the Billboard Top 200 at number 30 and also reached the Top Ten on Billboard's R&B/Hip Hop Albums chart. Released on Epic, rather than on her home label, it didn't receive the typical level of promotion for a Blige album and, as a result, sold significantly less than her prior releases. Inspired by Disclosure and other genre-blurring singer/songwriters and producers who were emerging from the U.K., she recorded her 13thbankruptcy in December 1981 in the District of New Mexico; El Paso Cash & Carry filed bankruptcy in April 1982 in the Western District of Texas, El Paso Division.

USE OF THE DEPOSITION OF ORVILLE GLASS FOR PURPOSES OF DETERMINATION OF VENUE At the hearing on the trustee's motion to determine venue, the trustee requested that the Court take judicial notice of the deposition of Orville R.

El Paso Cash & Carry objected to the admission of the deposition, since it was being offered against the Texas corporate debtor and since attorneys for that debtor were

non-fiction nature writer and his major books have been in that genre—the latest being Chuckwalla Land (2011), Articulate Earth (2014), and Mountains and Marshes (2015). Wallace has also been categorized as a science writer, and his work contains much scientific information, but it also has folkloric, philosophical, and religious dimensions. This has led to controversy, as when a March 20, 1983 New York Times Book Review piece on his third book, The Klamath Knot, by then Times reporter Clifford May, accused him of playing "fast and loose" with concepts like evolution and mythology, getting "caught up with what are apparently attempts to alchemize science into poetry." On the other hand, the eminent botanist and co-founder of the "neo-Darwinian synthesis," G. Ledyard Stebbins, described The Klamath Knot as:less well known than terrestrial ones. His 2011 Chuckwalla Land explores the evolution of California's desert, which is still not well understood despite many theories about it. Botanist Bruce Pavlik called it "a clear and entertaining story about the origin of California's desert that invites the reader into a world of ancient mystery and modern revelation." Much of Wallace's writing for periodicals has been on conservation issues. He has also written official National Park Handbooks for Redwood, Yellowstone, Mammoth Cave, and New River Gorge national parks. From 1998 until 2009, he served as a writer-consultant on a documentary film about the Klamath/Siskiyous by Stephen Fisher productions of Los Angeles. He has given talks, readings, and classes for local conservation organizations such as the Siskiyou Field Institute

Kolton Wong, who hit the tiebreaking, two-run homer for the Cardinals in Game 3 against the Dodgers, was a first-round selection in 2011 with a $1.3 million signing bonus. And Matt Adams, whose three-run homer in Game 4 on Tuesday put St. Louis in the NL Championship Series for the fourth straight year, cost just $25,000 to sign when the Cardinals drafted him in the 23rd round in 2009— the 699th pick overall. Building largely from within in the free-agent era, St. Louis topped the 10 postseason teams with 17 homegrown players on its 25-man division-series roster, according to STATS. The total cost of those initial contracts: $13,082,500. That's just more than half the $23 million the Los Angeles Angels are paying Albert Pujols, the three-time NL MVP who left the Cardinals after the 2011 World Series title for the riches of southern California. "That's something we as an organization take a lot of pride in," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said, "when you see how many of these kids came up through and are contributing, not just making it here, but thriving at this level and helping us to be able to walk in there and pop champagne." Among the postseason

— Myers was last year's AL Rookie of the Year. Like the Cardinals, Kansas City had three homegrown players drive in the go-ahead runs in the Division Series — all former high first-round draft picks who have all struggled to live up to their hype: Mike Moustakas ($4 million as second overall in 2007), Eric Hosmer ($6 million as third overall in 2008) and Alex Gordon ($4 million as second overall in 2005). Ten of Kansas City's players were acquired in the June draft of high school and college players who reside in the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico, and three were signed as amateur free agents. Fifteen Cardinals were obtained in the June draft and two as amateur free agents. Five more were acquired in trades and just three signedas major league free agents: shortstop Jhonny Peralta and pitchers Randy Choate and Pat Neshek. And while Peralta was given a $53 million, four-year contract last offseason, Choate is in the middle of a $7.5 million, three-year deal. Neshek signed a minor league contract just before spring training, earned a $1 million salary after making the big league team and became a first-time All-Star. They joined a core of players who have known each other for several years. "I think it does start in the minor leagues," Cardinals pitcher Michael Wacha said. "Every single minor leaguer, they're kind of preached on that whenever you get up to St. Louis, you're expected to win." John Mozeliak was hired by the Cardinals' scouting department after the 1995 season, kept gaining promotions and became

general manager in October 2007. His current roster includes five first-round draft picks — none higher than the 19th selection because St. Louis has had a winning record during each year of his tenure. And his group also includes passed-over players whose draft slots read a bit like a lottery ticket, with Adams joined by picks Nos. 350 (Seth Maness), 399 (Carpenter), 639 (Trevor Rosenthal), 802 (Tony Cruz) and 965 (Sam Freeman). Homegrown players aren't a new trend for St. Louis: Three of them also drove in the go-ahead runs against Washington in the 2012 NL Division Series: Daniel Descalso, Allen Craig and Pete Kozma. "I think it shows that they believe within the organization," Adams said. "They draft guys that they can develop and are their type of player.

Massachusetts is part of a cap-and-trade program with a host of regional states to stem power plant pollution. The agreement calls for a 50 percent reduction in carbon dioxide emissions from 2005 levels by 2020. The federal standard is a 30 percent reduction by 2030. When he campaigned in 2014, Baker presented himself as a far better ally to environmental activists than his Washington GOP colleagues. He supported several major initiatives, including the cap and trade program to reduce greenhouse emissions and the promotion of renewable energy. He also was clear in his 2014 race that he wanted to streamline state regulations, although he never outlined in detail any plans.

Congressional Democrats threw a fit after not getting their way on a gun control bill. Rather than looking for other political options, the group of boys and girls vowed to sit and pout until the grownups caved to their demands. The political toddlers sat on the floor of the building where the House of Representatives conducts business, and refused to leave. House staff set up baby gates around the group, and teacher’s aide Elizabeth Warren brought smiles to the group when she walked in with several dozen donuts and juice boxes. “Wigwam”

Warren said the atmosphere took her back to her pow wow days in their teepee (tipi) when she was a little girl, so she plopped down on the floor with the kids and joined in the games. The children posed for pictures for the media, played rock-paper-scissors, and took naps. Minority Leader, Nancy Pelosi, helped the kids pass the time by reading some of her favorite children’s books to the group. Among others, she read “The Very Hungover Caterpillar,” “The House That Crack Built,” and “Was it Good for You, Sheep?” The day wasn’t all smiles though.

The complete range of various phyllotaxes exemplified in aquatic plants provide an opportunity to characterize the fundamental geometrical relationships operating in leaf patterning. A new polar-coordinate model was used to characterize the correlation between the shapes of shoot meristems and the arrangements of young leaf primordia arising on those meristems. In aquatic plants, the primary geometrical relationship specifying spiral vs. whorled phyllotaxis is primordial position: primordia arising on the apical dome (as defined by displacement angles θ ≤ 90° during maximal phase) are often positioned in spiral patterns, whereas primordia arising on the subtending axis (as defined by displacement angles of θ ≥ 90° during maximal phase) are arranged in whorled patterns.

Lee Craig was operating an automobile owned by his father and in which his mother was riding as a passenger. On that occasion an accident occurred, allegedly as a result of Walter Lee Craig's negligent operation of the automobile, in which accident Mattie L. Craig was fatally injured. An action for wrongful death was brought in the Harlan Circuit Court, Harlan County, Kentucky, on behalf of the estate of Mattie L. Craig against Walter Lee Craig. Upon the commencement of the aforesaid action, the plaintiff brought the instant action, seeking to avoid liability for any judgment which might be rendered against the defendant in the state court action. At the time of the accident, Walter Lee Craig was serving in the Armed Forces. He was 23 years of ageand was "on leave" from the service following his return from duty in Viet Nam. Although the plaintiff admits that the subject insurance policy was in effect and covered the automobile involved on the date of the accident, it contends that language in the policy excluding liability coverage for bodily injury to the insured or to members of the family of the insured residing in the same household absolves it from liability for damages resulting from the death of Mattie L. Craig. The defendants dispute the plaintiff's contention, and further argue that, if the plaintiff's contention is valid, the automobile was uninsured within the meaning of the uninsured automobile coverage of the subject policy and within the meaning of K.R.S. 304.682(2). The plaintiff is a corporate citizen of Ohio, and

by the insured". The respective contentions of the parties raise a question of fact as to whether or not Walter Lee Craig was, at the time of the accident, a resident of the household of his father. Hence, to the extent that the insurer seeks to avoid liability on the theory that Walter Lee Craig was then residing in the same household as his father, summary judgment would be inappropriate. However, there appears to be no real question that Mattie L. Craig was, at the time of the accident, a member of the family of the insured residing in the same household. Thus, it is clear that by its terms the subject policy did not provide liability coverage for her bodily injury or resulting death.

Hultgren’s announcement sets up a likely primary matchup with Rep. Joe Walsh, another freshman Republican. Walsh has not declared where he’ll run for re-election, but Republicans expect him to also seek the redrawn 14th district seat. The Democratic-led overhaul of Illinois' Congressional map wreaked havoc on the GOP-held House seats in the state, moving many Republican Members into solidly Democratic districts or into the same districts as their GOP colleagues. Democrats drastically changed the 14th district, which includes the residences of both Hultgren and Walsh. Hultgren represents the current 14th district while Walsh represents the 8th district, although the redrawn 14th has portions of Walsh's current territory. Republicans filed a lawsuit in late July protesting the new map, and almost every Republican Member in the Illinois delegation has since keptDeKalb counties. Democrats shifted the district east toward Chicago, making it a more Republican seat in the process. Walsh's current 8th district is on the state’s northeast border, but mapmakers moved that district to Chicago’s northwest side, making it a more Democratic seat. As a result, many Republicans see the nearby, GOP-leaning 14th district as Walsh's best bet to win re-election. Slideshow | March 13, 2015 Tom Williams/CQ Roll Call Rep.

issue. "They've created a really stellar panel of experts ... They haven't just gone one way," Morris said. "They're really wrestling with the nuts and bolts in a way that just blows out of the water anything that the federal panel has done." Last February, the Supreme Court of Canada recognized the right of clearly consenting adults who endure intolerable physical or mental suffering to end their lives with a physician's help. The court gave Parliament one year to come up with a set of laws to govern assisted suicide, though former justice minister Peter MacKay mused in June that the government -- Conservative or otherwise -- would require more time to address the decision. In the summer, the federal government appointed the three-member panel. It has defended its independence and has conductedresearch tours in Europe and Portland, Ore. The panel's chairman is psychiatry professor Harvey Max Chochinov, the Canada research chair in palliative care at the University of Manitoba. His co-panellists are University of Ottawa law professor Benoit Pelletier, a former Quebec cabinet minister and a constitutional expert and Catherine Frazee, former co-director of Ryerson University's institute for disability research and education. Both Chochinov and Frazee both argued against doctor-assisted dying before the Supreme Court, but the chairman maintains the panel is committed to carrying out its task in a careful and objective way. "Certainly whatever opinions anyone has held previously, we have all moved on to a very different conversation," he said. "It's a conversation the Supreme Court has asked us to engage in, which is not if and when assisted suicide

will happen, but how." The federal panel will present its findings in a report to the ministers of justice and health, though the election has delayed its release. Chochinov said the group's work will not be affected by the change in government. "We were appointed by the government of Canada, we will report to the government of Canada," he said. "Our appointments were not based on any kind of political considerations so our intent is to, as soon as we have an opportunity, to engage with the new government and eventually to deliver our report as per our terms of reference." Meanwhile, the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops and the Evangelical Fellowship of Canada have also released a declaration on euthanasia and assisted suicide.

Rutgers University identified the victim today as 22-year-old Darsh Patel, a senior studying technology and informatics at the school, who was hiking with friends in the Apshawa Preserve on Sunday when the attack happened. "This is a rare occurrence," West Milford police Chief Timothy Storbeck said at a news conference today.

group realized a bear was following them, Storbeck said. They ran, splitting up along the way, and when the friends couldn't find Patel, they called police, who found the student's body about two hours later. The bear was likely looking for food and was circling the victim's body from about 30 yards away when sheriff's officers and wildlife officials arrived, Storbeck said. He added that they tried to scare the bear away by making loud noises and throwing sticks and stones, but eventually shot the animal with a rifle. The bear, which wasn't tagged, is being examined at a state lab for clues as to why it went after the hikers.

Stadio Armando Picchi The Stadio Armando Picchi is a multi-purpose stadium in Livorno, Italy. The A.S. Livorno Calcio once used the Villa Chayes Stadium, nearby the Naval Academy, for his matches but when the city team was promoted to the Serie A in 1928-29 Divisione Nazionale was indispensable to build a new larger one. History The new stadium was built in 1933 on project by Raffaello Brizzi, with a capacity of 19,234, at Ardenza Mare district and was named to Edda Ciano Mussolini until 1945. It has been built in reinforced concrete, has an area of 30,000 square metre and two rectilinear gradins of the length of 90 m. The first match, Livorno vs. ACF Fiorentina, was played on October 8, 1933 when the stadium was uncompleted. It was inaugurated on MarchManeka's recipe for Uttar Pradesh success: Make son Varun CM August 04, 2014 15:58 IST Pitching for her son and Sultanpur member of Parliament, Union Minister Maneka Gandhi has said that Uttar Pradesh would have benefited had there been a Bharatiya Janata Party led government in the state with Varun Gandhi as its chief minister. "It would have been better had there been our government in the state then we would have got work done authoritatively. It would have been even better if the government would have been run by Varun, in that case Pilibhit should have benefited most," the Women and Child Development Minister said while addressing a meeting in Takia village on Sunday. On projecting Varun as the state's chief ministerial candidate, Maneka said, "it is a matter of future." However,

BJP state president Laxmi Kant Bajpai said whatever the minister has expressed is her personal view. "In the BJP, the party high command takes such decisions whether it would contest election by projecting a leader as the chief ministerial candidate. Besides its too early to comment," he added. The meeting was organised by Varun Gandhi Youth Brigade, during which his supporters raised slogans of "Hamara CM kaisa ho, Varun Gandhi jaisa ho (Our Chief Minister should be like Varun Gandhi)". Maneka, who is the BJP MP from Pilibhit, attacked Samajwadi Party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav and the Akhilesh Yadav government for "intentionally harassing the people of Uttar Pradesh" after the Lok Sabha elections, in which 71 out of 80 constituencies were clinched by the BJP and Samajwadi Party could onlymanage to get five seats. She alleged that BJP supporters and people of the state were being deprived of basic amenities like power, water and road infrastructure after the general election results. The minister claimed the people would teach the SP supremo a lesson in the next UP assembly elections.

the target registration error (TRE). First, we divided the posterior side of the vertebra into five zones and chose 30 points, evenly distributed in different combinations of zones, to simulate the points selected on the vertebra during real navigation. We registered these points to a point cloud representing the surface of the vertebra and calculated the SRE and TRE in the region of interest to determine which combination of zones was optimal. We then chose different numbers of points in the optimal zone combination to study the influence of the number of points on the registration accuracy.

Now he's found an eager audience: Russian state media. ENLARGE Igor Panarin In recent weeks, he's been interviewed as much as twice a day about his predictions. "It's a record," says Prof. Panarin. "But I think the attention is going to grow even stronger." Prof. Panarin, 50 years old, is

not a fringe figure. A former KGB analyst, he is dean of the Russian Foreign Ministry's academy for future diplomats. He is invited to Kremlin receptions, lectures students, publishes books, and appears in the media as an expert on U.S.-Russia relations. But it's his bleak forecast for the U.S. that is music to the ears of the Kremlin, which in recent years has blamed Washington for everything from instability in the Middle East to the global financial crisis. Mr. Panarin's views also fit neatly with the Kremlin's narrative that Russia is returning to its rightful place on the world stage after the weakness of the 1990s, when many feared that the country would go economically and politically bankrupt and break into separate territories. A polite and cheerful man with aAlaska reverting to Russian control. In addition to increasing coverage in state media, which are tightly controlled by the Kremlin, Mr. Panarin's ideas are now being widely discussed among local experts. He presented his theory at a recent roundtable discussion at the Foreign Ministry. The country's top international relations school has hosted him as a keynote speaker. During an appearance on the state TV channel Rossiya, the station cut between his comments and TV footage of lines at soup kitchens and crowds of homeless people in the U.S. The professor has also been featured on the Kremlin's English-language propaganda channel, Russia Today. Mr. Panarin's apocalyptic vision "reflects a very pronounced degree of anti-Americanism in Russia today," says Vladimir Pozner, a prominent TV journalist in Russia. "It's much stronger than it

was in the Soviet Union." Mr. Pozner and other Russian commentators and experts on the U.S. dismiss Mr. Panarin's predictions. "Crazy ideas are not usually discussed by serious people," says Sergei Rogov, director of the government-run Institute for U.S. and Canadian Studies, who thinks Mr. Panarin's theories don't hold water. Mr. Panarin's résumé includes many years in the Soviet KGB, an experience shared by other top Russian officials. His office, in downtown Moscow, shows his national pride, with pennants on the wall bearing the emblem of the FSB, the KGB's successor agency. It is also full of statuettes of eagles; a double-headed eagle was the symbol of czarist Russia. The professor says he began his career in the KGB in 1976. In post-Soviet Russia, he got a doctorate in political science,studied U.S. economics, and worked for FAPSI, then the Russian equivalent of the U.S. National Security Agency. He says he did strategy forecasts for then-President Boris Yeltsin, adding that the details are "classified." In September 1998, he attended a conference in Linz, Austria, devoted to information warfare, the use of data to get an edge over a rival. It was there, in front of 400 fellow delegates, that he first presented his theory about the collapse of the U.S. in 2010. "When I pushed the button on my computer and the map of the United States disintegrated, hundreds of people cried out in surprise," he remembers. He says most in the audience were skeptical. "They didn't believe me." At the end of the presentation, he says many delegates asked him to

autograph copies of the map showing a dismembered U.S. He based the forecast on classified data supplied to him by FAPSI analysts, he says. He predicts that economic, financial and demographic trends will provoke a political and social crisis in the U.S. When the going gets tough, he says, wealthier states will withhold funds from the federal government and effectively secede from the union. Social unrest up to and including a civil war will follow. The U.S. will then split along ethnic lines, and foreign powers will move in. California will form the nucleus of what he calls "The Californian Republic," and will be part of China or under Chinese influence. Texas will be the heart of "The Texas Republic," a cluster of states that will go to Mexico orfall under Mexican influence. Washington, D.C., and New York will be part of an "Atlantic America" that may join the European Union. Canada will grab a group of Northern states Prof. Panarin calls "The Central North American Republic." Hawaii, he suggests, will be a protectorate of Japan or China, and Alaska will be subsumed into Russia. "It would be reasonable for Russia to lay claim to Alaska; it was part of the Russian Empire for a long time." A framed satellite image of the Bering Strait that separates Alaska from Russia like a thread hangs from his office wall. "It's not there for no reason," he says with a sly grin. Interest in his forecast revived this fall when he published an article in Izvestia, one of Russia's biggest national

you know that this guy has absolutely no expertise to come up with his wild theory? Simply read his quote "When the going gets tough, he says, wealthier states will withhold funds from the federal government." Anyone who has studied the US or the federal system knows that money doesn't flow from the states to the federal government. The federal government collects taxes and distributes funds through various programs down to the states. The prophet in question, despite implicit claims of objectivity, is a member of the KGB and teaches for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He is a member of the government, which is to say a low-level technocrat in a gigantic criminal enterprise. The Russian people are wonderful, yet Russian government is populated not only by criminalsWith raising taxes as their only solution our politicians are void of both ideas and character. How does that crazy Russian's prediction seem now. Was he only a couple years off? "Russia has no future, a catastrophe is coming, disintegration of this country and disappearance of the Russian World (Pax Russicum - KC) from the historical arena is imminent, so the revolution in Russia is inevitable", the president of a Moscow "Academy of Geopolitical Problems", Zio Col. Gen. Ivashov, was forced to acknowledge. In his lengthy article in Russian, Ivashov said that it was a quite logical fate for his Russia. "In Russia, the situation is complicated. The revolution is inevitable here. It will attempt to find Russia's future and its development course, which will save Russia as a unified state, with

dollar. Around the end of June 2010, or early July, he says, the U.S. will break into six pieces -- with Alaska reverting to Russian control." I see it more as Soros causing the market to crash as an October Surprise. Panarin might be right about the US breaking up some time in the next decade or so, but if he thinks that there is a chance in hell of anyone in the states of TN, KY or SC joining the EU I've got an island off the coast of Florida I can sell him. If he really thinks that the largest portion of the US wouldn't stay intact as a Constitutional Republic, with just some of the wackier Socialist states like California and NY breaking off, then he doesn'tWelcome to the world of "The Postman". This poor guy, Professor Igor "Rat-arin", is another paria and widow of the old communist-fascist thinking of the XIX century. I think he is high on drugs, possibly purchased from Putin's pupils: Hugo Chavez in Venezuela or Evo Morales in Bolivia, where cocaine and pot is cheap, ubiquitous, and strong. (Ahjamajineyad only produces nukes...say no to drugs...). Nothing to worry about, my fellow Americans: America will be the very dominant economic and military power for years and years to come, even against the envy of much rogue and defaulted states like the old Russia, the forgotten Jurassic Park of Nort Korea, and the new loosers like the Banana Republic of Venezuela.Believe me: God bless America !!!!

charge was pending in state court in Edgar County, Illinois. While awaiting the federal sentencing, Parker was being held with other federal detainees at the DeWitt County Jail in Illinois. 3 Parker confided in Aaron French, a fellow federal detainee at the DeWitt County Jail, that he planned to escape when sent back to the Edgar County Courthouse for sentencing for the burglary conviction. Parker explained that his friend, Derek Sronce, would be willing to bring a gun to the courthouse on the day of his sentencing, but that Sronce needed to acquire a gun in order to do so. French arranged for a friend to deliver French's Smith & Wesson .357 revolver and ammunition to Sronce. 4 On September 27, 2000, Parker wrote a letter to Sronce to complain that Sroncehad failed to meet French's friend for the gun delivery, and to urge Sronce to get the gun from French's friend. The next day, Parker was sentenced according to the federal Sentencing Guidelines on his federal gun charge, receiving a reduction to the mandatory minimum for providing substantial assistance pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 5K1.1. The district court admonished Parker that he was a strong candidate for an upward departure due to his extensive criminal history and warned him that he faced a severe sentence if he ever returned to the district court on criminal charges. 5 On October 4, 2000, Parker wrote another letter to Sronce from the DeWitt County Jail instructing him to obtain the gun from French's friend on October 8. Sronce wrote back to indicate that October

8 would be a convenient day to accept the delivery. On October 8, French's friend met Sronce at Sronce's home and gave him an unloaded Smith & Wesson .357 handgun in a plastic bag. 6 Parker was scheduled to plead guilty to the pending state burglary charge and to be sentenced at the courthouse on Friday, October 13, 2000. Parker requested a continuance to October 18, 2000, the following Wednesday, explaining that he wished his mother to be present at the sentencing, but that she could not be present until that time. In fact, Parker had requested the continuance not to accommodate his mother's travels, as she was actually in the vicinity on October 13. Instead, he sought the continuance because he believed that his escape plan was less likelyto succeed on a Friday than on a Wednesday: Parker knew that it was the practice of the Edgar County jail to send two officers to the courthouse with inmates on Fridays, but to send only one officer to the courthouse on Wednesdays. 7 Sronce visited Parker at the Edgar County Jail on October 13, 2000. During the visit, Parker instructed Sronce to place the gun near or behind the radiator located by the basement door of the courthouse. Parker explained that he would use the gun to escape after his court appearance on the following Wednesday. 8 Sronce brought the gun to the courthouse on October 18, 2000, according to the plan. When Sronce realized that two law enforcement officers were on duty at the courthouse, Sronce decided to abort the

plan. Sronce did not leave the gun for Parker by the radiator or anywhere else in the courthouse. Following the proceedings, Parker was transferred back to the DeWitt County Jail to await further transfer to the Federal Bureau of Prisons. The following day, Sronce sold the gun to a gun collector. 9 On October 20, 2000, the DeWitt County Jail intercepted a letter written by Sronce to Parker in which Sronce apologized for the failed escape attempt. Sronce explained that he had deviated from the plan because two law enforcement officers were present at the courthouse on October 18, and Parker had previously directed him to forgo the gun drop under those circumstances. Parker wrote a letter in response expressing his disappointment and instructing Sronce to give the gun andshells to Parker's mother. 10 In September 2002, a federal grand jury charged Parker in a two-count indictment with conspiracy to escape in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 371 and attempt to escape in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 751(a). On October 30, 2002, Parker pled guilty to both counts without the benefit of a plea agreement. The district judge engaged Parker in a fifty-five minute change of plea colloquy. The district judge remarked that Parker had recently appeared before him for sentencing in a different matter, and that Parker's previous sentence was reached "under the sentencing guidelines." During the plea colloquy, the district court confirmed that neither Parker nor defense counsel had any intention of moving for a downward departure in the present case. The district court informed Parker

promise had been made regarding his sentence "other than it's within the guidelines," each time Parker answered "[y]es." Parker indicated that he understood that the district court could sentence him "to the maximum within the guidelines irrespective of the[] recommendations" of government and defense counsel. 11 On December 13, 2002, the probation office issued a presentence report which stated that the district court could depart from the otherwise applicable guideline range on the basis of Parker's criminal history. Later that month, the United States indicated by letter that it believed an upward departure was appropriate based on factors including and additional to those indicated in the presentence report. On January 6, 2003, Parker objected to the upward departure suggested in the presentence report and requested a downward departure. The United§ 5K2.0 downward departure for substantial assistance was possible despite the absence of a motion from the United States. In neither the January 6 nor January 17 commentaries did Parker argue that the district court had foreclosed the option of upward departures due to its promise to Parker of a sentence "within the guidelines," nor did Parker move to withdraw his guilty plea. 12 At the January 17, 2003 sentencing hearing, the district court defined the requests for upward and downward departures and allowed both parties to argue extensively in regard to the proposals. Defense counsel urged that the grouping rules of the guidelines precluded the district court from achieving the ultimate guideline sentence through the imposition of consecutive sentences, even if the district court decided that an upward departure

otherwise applicable guideline range due to the specific facts of Parker's attempt and conspiracy to escape, the unwarranted downward departure he received in his previous federal case, and Parker's extensive criminal history. The United States also argued that the district court should impose consecutive sentences on the two counts of conviction. Parker responded on February 7, 2003, again arguing that the facts did not merit upward departures, that the upward departures could not be achieved by consecutive sentences, and that a downward departure was appropriate. The defense did not argue that the terms of the plea colloquy precluded the district court from departing upward from the otherwise applicable sentencing range, nor did Parker move to withdraw his guilty plea at that time. 14 On March 7, 2003, the district courtissued its written ruling in open court. The district court determined that Parker's initial offense level was fourteen and his criminal history category was VI, meriting a sentence of thirty-seven to forty-six months. The district court found that an upward departure of seven levels was warranted: five levels to reflect the seriousness of Parker's past criminal conduct and recidivist nature, followed by two additional levels due to Parker's intention to utilize a gun during the escape. The resulting offense level was twenty-one, while the criminal history category remained VI, leading to a guideline sentencing range of seventy-seven to ninety-six months. The district court sentenced Parker to ninety-six months of imprisonment, consisting of a forty-eight-month term for each count, the terms to be served consecutively. In addition, the district

court ordered three years of supervised release and a $200 special assessment. Parker did not request to withdraw his guilty plea prior to his sentence being imposed by the district court. Parker filed a notice of appeal from the judgment on March 14, 2003. II. Analysis 15 Parker raises two issues on appeal. First, Parker maintains that the district judge did not comply with Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure because he did not include in the change of plea colloquy an admonishment that the district court may, in the exercise of its discretion, depart upward from the applicable sentencing guideline range. Because Parker made no objection to the district court's statements during the plea colloquy, and because Parker did not move to withdraw his plea in thewhen a particular case presents atypical circumstances. 19 That said, we conclude that any potential for miscommunication arising from the district court's repeated use of the phrase "within the guidelines" was mitigated during the remainder of Parker's change of plea colloquy. Examined in context, it is clear that when the district court used the phrase "within the guidelines," the court invoked the guidelines as a whole. Contrary to Parker's view, as employed by the district court during the Rule 11 colloquy, the phrase "within the guidelines" was not in reference to the narrow guideline range applicable to Parker's base offense level and unmodified criminal history category. The district court did not indicate that Parker's sentence would be "within the applicable guideline range," nor did the district court suggest an intention

prosecution had encouraged the district court to depart upward. In response, Parker presented multiple arguments in opposition to the contemplated upward departures — he argued that the guidelines' grouping rules precluded the district court from achieving the ultimate guideline sentence through the imposition of consecutive sentences; that the methods that he had employed in the conspiracy and attempt to escape did not merit upward departures, and lastly that his criminal history did not merit an enhanced sentence — but he never argued before the district court that the terms of the plea colloquy foreclosed the imposition of upward departures. His decision to challenge the proposed departures on grounds other than his alleged misunderstanding of the phrase "within the guidelines" belies his claim that this misunderstanding was the basisa truncating protein in the catalytic domain that contains only 206 amino-acids on the 1,030 that has CDKL5 protein. The patient was the first child of healthy parents. She was born in a private clinic, and we were unable to obtain all the details related to the delivery, but established that resuscitation had not been required and the infant's birth weight was 3,450 g. The infant started to have seizures at 4 weeks of life, with facial flushing, vomiting and crying.

wires was attempted. The temporary pacing wires quickly failed to capture owing to the associated inflammation and scar and she was left in a junctional escape rhythm. The patient was started on an isoproterenol infusion but developed vomiting, thought to be related to low cardiac output resulting from bradycardia, loss of AV synchrony, and vasodilation from isoproterenol. Given the need for prolonged antibiotics, intolerance of isoproterenol, and failure of temporary epicardial leads, the decision was made to place an endocardial, transvenous lead that would be externalized to a sterile generator. The patient also had significant mitral regurgitation with ventricular diastolic dysfunction. As a result, the decision was made to pursue a strategy that would preserve AV synchrony. In order to place a lead with a single-pass technique owing tobecause the device was in the DDD mode, she was noted to have intermittent phrenic nerve capture. This resolved with decreasing the atrial output even further than it had been previously. The lead was resutured in place to ensure no further displacement. For the remainder of her course, she did not have complete AV synchrony owing to intermittent atrial under-sensing but was able to tolerate this pacing strategy while she completed her prolonged course of antibiotics. Her ventricular capture and sensing characteristics remained excellent throughout. Upon completion of her antibiotics, she underwent placement of a new dual-chamber epicardial system with removal of her temporary transvenous system. The remainder of her hospital course was uneventful. At follow-up 2 months later, the new device was functioning well and she had no

evidence for recurrence of her mediastinitis. Case 2 {#sec2.2} ------ A 2-year-old, 12.5-kg, previously healthy patient was admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit after a cervical spine injury sustained during a motor vehicle crash. The patient was paralyzed from the neck down and underwent tracheostomy placement. Over the first few weeks of his hospitalization he was noted to be bradycardic with intermittent pauses of up to 7 seconds during airway manipulation despite atropine and glycopyrrolate. Cardiology was consulted and an echocardiogram showed a structurally normal heart with normal biventricular function. At 4 weeks from his initial injury, he had an episode of bradycardia and then asystole requiring chest compressions, epinephrine, and atropine before return of circulation. Given the severity of his pauses, the decision was made to place a single-leadventricular pacemaker. Prior to the procedure date, however, he had a high fever and the decision was made to wait for blood cultures to be negative for 48 hours before proceeding with a permanent device. He had multiple bradycardic episodes the same day with loss of pulses, requiring emergent resuscitation. The decision was made to urgently place transvenous, temporary pacing. A 4F sheath was placed in his right femoral vein. Under ultrasound guidance at the bedside, a 4F, 110-cm balloon-tipped catheter was positioned in the RV apex. The lead was connected to a Medtronic 5392 Dual Chamber pacing box (Medtronic Inc) programmed for VVI backup pacing at 60 beats per minute. Capture thresholds were low. The catheter required repositioning within 24 hours owing to the balloon's being incompletely deflated,

Bailey said she thought his sentence was not justified because it was his first offense. She also said, however, that this would have no effect on her deliberations, and she could judge the case solely on the facts and the merits. The State points out that the Waco Police Department was the arresting agency in Bailey’s son’s case, as in King’s, the court was the same in both cases, the conviction was recent, and Bailey did not think her son’s sentence was justified. Kerr said, although she also had a son on probation for a drug offense involving amphetamines, it was twelve years ago, he had completed his probation, and she felt that he had been treated fairly. In addition,

Kerr had served on another felony jury which had convicted the defendant. The State provided race-neutral reasons for striking Bailey, which King did not rebut. The trial court’s ruling about the State’s reasons for striking Bailey being race-neutral is not clearly erroneous.       The record shows that Walker had been arrested for driving under the influence in Hill County.

SpaceX's winning streak came to an explosive end with one of its rockets blowing up during its attempted landing. The Falcon 9 rocket has - as its name suggests - nine rockets to take off, but uses just three to land. One of those failed to deliver full thrust on landing, causing it land very hard on the company's drone ship. That lead to, in Elon Musk's words, a Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly. Despite it being fourth time unlucky, the main mission was successful however: SpaceX successfully delivered two satellites into geostationary orbit. The rocket lifted off on schedule from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station at 1029 ET (1429 UTC) carrying two satellites, both built by Boeing. The EUTELSAT 117 West B satellite will carry video and dataservices for Latin America and was released 30 minutes into flight. The ABS-2A satellite, which will handle similar traffic over Africa, the Middle East, Russia and Asia, was delivered five minutes later.

But we can show that Gingrich is a paragon of matrimonial virtue compared to a Wall Street titan who has left his ex wife and two daughters on food stamps in Alabama. Newt Gingrich might be a scuzzbucket in the spouse department, but he's got a ways to go if he's going to catch Ted Rollins, the CEO of Campus Crest Communities. Rollins' company completed a $380-million Wall Street IPO late last year, based on its projected strength as a developer of student housing near universities across the country. It seems a safe bet that the overall wealth for both Randall and Garycandidate, now in his third marriage, has been peppered with attacks and questions about his divorce from Jackie Gingrich for the past three decades. Questions about his past--and what that past tells voters about his personal behavior--have re-emerged as he has returned to the political scene 13 years after he resigned as speaker of the House. A new defense that has arisen as Gingrich entered the presidential race this year is the insistence that she, not he, wanted the divorce. How should the Gingrich campaign spin these latest revelations, which threaten to sink his bid for the White House? I have a suggestion: Shower the press with details about the Rollins v. Rollins divorce case--it has connections to Gingrich's home state of Georgia; that could be the hook. Newt will look

Since their rebirth, the New York Cosmos have set out to create an academy to rival any in the world. Boasting a grand vision of a state-of-the-art in-house academy program, the Cosmos’ efforts took a major step forward with the introduction of the Under-13 and Under-14 age groups. Following approval from U.S. Soccer, the Cosmos have been granted inclusion in the national Development Academy system for the U-13 and U-14 age groups. Previously recognized at the U-12 level, the Cosmos can now work with players from the ages of 12 to 14 to better prepare young talent for an introduction into the professional game. As part of the team’s continued push, sources tell SBI that Assistant Youth Director Ronan Wiseman will assume the role of youth development director. In addition,important step in that process.” For Stover and the Cosmos, the process is just beginning, as the club looks to help further the efforts of developing talent in the U.S. With approval from U.S. Soccer now finalized, the Cosmos are able to recruit and work with the best players possible while straying away from the pay-to-play model that has been the norm for decades. Regardless of income, players will be given the chance to make inroads within the academy system in a similar way to young players throughout the rest of the world. Stover says the Cosmos are very much on board with the European model of molding young talent. Playing in a country where the academy situation is still in its infancy, the Cosmos are hoping to take things a

exciting about where we can take this club.” Despite being very much in the middle of a long-term project, the vision remains very clear. The Cosmos’ goal is to push players into the U.S. national team program at every age group while developing talent that can someday step into the first team. According to Stover, the process isn’t just about developing young players for the team, but rather a national team program that is just now benefiting from a proper academy system. To date, the Cosmos have had three players represent the club with a U.S. national team: Eric Calvillo, Alexis Velela and Haji Wright. The former two are fresh off of a trophy-winning performance at the Slovakia Cup with the U.S. U-19s, while the latter is currently in theCorporate Crimes Division, Central Intelligence Bureau Hiroyuki Sanada as Mr. Musha, president and CEO of Musha Motors Rain as Taejo Togokahn, a rookie racer Richard Roundtree as Ben Burns, a race commentator and former racing champion Kick Gurry as Sparky, Speed's mechanic and best friend John Benfield as Cruncher Block, a professional race fixer and gang leader Christian Oliver as Snake Oiler, a shady racer who wears snakeskin racing clothes Ralph Herforth as Jack "Cannonball" Taylor, a superstar racer sponsored by Royalton Industries Yu Nan as Horuko Togokahn, Taejo Togokhan's sister Nayo Wallace as Minx, a scientist and Racer X's girlfriend Melvil Poupaud as Johnny 'Goodboy' Jones, a race commentator Chim Chim, Spritle's pet chimpanzee and best friend is portrayed by two chimpanzees: "Kenzie" and "Willy".

Writing for The Hollywood Reporter, Kirk Honeycutt called Speed Racer'''s visual effects "stellar", but stated it "proudly denies entry into its ultra-bright world to all but gamers, fanboys and anime enthusiasts". He criticized that story and character were "tossed aside" towards the "wearying" races. Todd McCarthy of Variety noted the target audience should be amused, but others might think the film "a cinematic pile-up", citing its implausibility and the lack of identifiable peril in the driving sequences. While noted viewers interested in CGI would appreciate it, McCarthy said the frame sometimes resembled "a kindergartner's art class collage". He had praise for the cinematography, the musical score, andloved ones, and select a health care agent. The campaign started, in June 2016, with a year-long learning collaborative facilitated by The Conversation Project and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement. Fourteen organizations participated, including primary care practices, assisted living facilities, the local community hospital, and faith communities of four different denominations (Catholic, Jewish, Baptist, and nondenominational). The collaborative involved three in-person meetings, as well as monthly check-in calls in between. The goal was to improve the rates at which residents of Howard County have their end-of-life care wishes expressed and respected, and the organizations tested and implemented different approaches to make that happen. One of the participating churches, St. John the Evangelist Roman Catholic Church, got hundreds of parishioners to start conversations about their wishes for end-of-life care. Volunteers have

perpetuates the misguided view that the government can best care for children by removing them from their homes. Misty and her husband, Jon, arrived at a house near Denver one day several years ago to pick up the two boys who would become their sons. A dirt yard led to a screen door dangling from its hinges. Inside, grime coated the linoleum steps to the living room, where a kind, if overwhelmed, single foster mother introduced Misty and Jon to Shon, 2 ½ years old, and his 9-month-old brother, Cory. She gave the couple a tiny suitcase with a broken zipper, a few borrowed clothes — some too big, others too small — and a piece of advice: Don’t touch Shon’s head or lift your hands near him. Hedropped them off with a man who didn’t know their ages or names and never returned. In the first weeks after Misty and Jon took the boys home, Shon would slide his plate over to his brother and refuse to eat until Cory did. Some mornings the family awoke to the sound of crashing pots and pans, as Shon tried to prepare breakfast for Cory. Misty once found spilled muffin mix and a spray bottle of bleach in the boys’ bedroom — presumably the ingredients for an aborted meal. At bedtime, Shon lay on his back, his head in his hands, and stared straight ahead until Misty left the bedroom. He awoke each morning in the same position, as if he were on guard all night. About eight months

later, as the adoption proc­ess inched forward and the boys began to adjust to their new life, a county caseworker came by. Shon and Cory’s mother had just given birth to twins, a boy and a girl. They were only 24 weeks old — at the edge of life. Each baby weighed a little more than a pound. Given the mother’s history of abandoning her children, Misty says, the county wanted foster parents who could visit and hold the babies in the hospital. Misty and Jon had a couple of days to decide. Misty, who is 39, wanted to bring home more needy children. She loved taking care of kids and had been running an at-home preschool for Shon and Cory and three other children. But Jon, who iscare, paid for by Medicaid. Misty, a former nurse for dementia patients, was eligible to work as one of Olivia’s nurses, allowing her to earn money while staying home with the children. That first year, Olivia was in and out of the hospital about a dozen times, often with Misty at her side. Then a caseworker called with one more request. It was February 2011 — almost two years after Olivia’s birth. The county, which by then knew Jon and Misty were highly competent foster parents, needed a short-term placement for a baby whose mother was expected to regain custody. The 4-month-old girl named Raena weighed only 11 pounds, no bigger than a hefty newborn. According to Misty, a relative’s boyfriend had shaken her and thrown her into a

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week and running back Dion Lewis took home AFC Special Teams Player of the Week honors as a result of their performances in Sunday's 41-16 victory over the Denver Broncos. Brady was 25-of-34 for 266 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions. Lewis returned a kickoff 103 yards for a touchdown. It marks the 30th time in his career that Brady has earned a Player of the Week honor, which extends his own NFL record. It is his third such honor this season, which could be a factor for MVP consideration coming down the homestretch of the season. Tom Brady's 30 Player of the Week Awards are the most in NFL history. This is the5th time he has won 3+ Player of the Week Awards in a single season (2007, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2017). That's also the most all-time. 🏆🏆🏆 pic.twitter.com/KEsPCCUpJe — Randall Liu (@RLiuNFL) November 15, 2017 Lewis is the first Patriots return specialist to earn the honor since Julian Edelman in 2014. Both Brady and Lewis would be the first to point out that their performances wouldn't be possible without the other 10 players on the field with them, and in the case of Lewis, his honor shines a spotlight on the team's often-overlooked kickoff-return unit that is comprised of Jacob Hollister, Marquis Flowers, Jordan Richards, Brandon King, Brandon Bolden, Trevor Reilly, Nate Ebner, James Develin, Dwayne Allen, Matthew Slater and Lewis. With Slater ailing with a hamstring injury, Johnson Bademosi is the likely option

This paper historicizes the taken-for-granted acceptance of reflection as a fundamental professional practice in nursing. It draws attention to the broad application of reflective practice, from pedagogy to practice to regulation, and explores the epistemological basis upon which the authority of reflective discourse rests. Previous work has provided a series of critiques of the logic and suitability of reflective practice across all domains of nursing. The goal of this paper is to commence a history of nursing's reflective identity. The paper begins with a discussion of Dewey and Schön then focuses on Habermas's Theory of Communicative Action as the epistemological basis of reflective practice's standing as a authoritative discourse in nursing.

an event which has grown to become one of the city’s largest festivals. Established nine years ago as a two-day festival on the former Beamish and Crawford site, it has grown into a six-day event over two weekends on the docklands site which hosts the Live at the Marquee concert series. Mr Cronin said he will have to review the long-term future of the event amid concerns about the financial impact of the cancellation.

When finally Gotye was able to drive them away, the duo returned from behind him fully naked. They recited the painted bodies in Gotye's music video of "Somebody I Used to Know". Andy said, "We're like you. Get it?" Goyte responded, "It's weird, guys." For his actual performance, Gotye did not appear au naturel. He brought New Zealand singer Kimbra, who is featured in the recorded version of "Somebody I Used to Know", to assist him in the song. He also played "Eyes Wide Open" as his second set.

Executives at Sydney Trains have apologised for a “terrible” morning on the transport network after a combination of problems caused massive delays across the city on Tuesday but expect the afternoon to run more smoothly. A wiring fault at Hornsby left a train stranded near the entrance to a transport depot, which blocked a further 20 trains behind it, while a medical emergency at Erskineville caused extensive delays through Sydney’s inner west before 8am. Sydney Trains have apologised for Tuesday morning's delays. Credit:AAP Meanwhile, a mechanical issue near Lidcombe and a fire alarm evacuation at Town Hall in the morning rush added to delays. The incidents occurring within a few hours wreaked havoc, with services to the north, south and west all experiencing delays.

Most people know McClanahan from her 'Girls' role of sexy senior Blanche Devereaux. But McClanahan's on-screen career stretches back almost fifty years, and she's been featured in a number of interesting television roles before and since her years on that lanai in Miami. Here are some of the more interesting parts of Rue's career you may or may not have known about: I've always had this theory that even the worst songs in the world can sound better if you play them on an

acoustic guitar. You can take the most insipid sitcom theme song or the most bombastic heavy metal tune, and when you play the song on an acoustic guitar, it suddenly becomes more profound, more deep, just better somehow. The folks over at Best Week Ever have complied a great set of videos that show people doing the theme songs to various TV shows on various instruments. Some of them are pretty straightforward with normal instruments (for example, a small orchestra doing the Muppet Show theme and Family Matters done on piano), while others are rather odd and unexpected, like the parrot doing the Andy Griffith Show theme or The Love Boat performed on a theremin. After the jump, one of my favorites: the theme to Baywatch performed by a30 Rock. What on earth could bring these Upper East Siders to Midtown? Are they trying to overthrow Liz Lemon as queen bee of TGS with Tracy Jordan? Are they starring in a movie with Tracy Jordan? There's more info on their storyline after the jump. I have a confession to make: I always liked Caroline in the City. Maybe it was because it was set in the world of cartooning, or that I liked the fact that Richard was sarcastic and morose, or maybe it's just that I've always thought that Lea Thompson was really cute. Anyway, the first season is out on DVD tomorrow, and I just might have to pick it up. Another syndicated-writer show is on DVD for the first time tomorrow too: Dave's World, the

value, but as the years have gone on, aspects of life on the Pacific Princess made me scratch my head, starting with a fact of life that just about everyone took for granted: Television producer Aaron Spelling, who has worked in some capacity on nearly 200 productions, suffered a stroke over this past weekend. According to spokesman Kevin Sasaki, the 83-year-old Spelling, who has produced such hits as Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place, Charmed and 7th Heaven, was briefly hospitalized. Sasaki did not know the extent of damage the stroke caused; however, he said that the fact he was released from the hospital was a good sign. If you have watched a television show anytime during your life you have probably seen a show that Aaron Spelling had a handin. He has produced a number of nighttime soaps including Dynasty, Family, The Colbys, Summerland and Twin Peaks (he co-produced the series). He also produced a number of crime dramas such as Starsky & Hutch, T.J. Hooker, The Mod Squad, and Burke's Law. During the 1970's, his mark could be found on ABC with the hits Charlie's Angels, The Love Boat, Vega$, and Fantasy Island. Needless to say, an extremely impressive resume. Spelling is the father of actor Tori Spelling, who appeared in Beverly Hills 90210, and Randy Spelling

Introduction ============ Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) has emerged as a global crisis since its discovery in 1981 with the epicenter now firmly located in Asia and Africa ([@B1]). Nepal, home to some 23 million people has more than a hundred ethnic and linguistic groups ([@B2]). A decade long armed conflict here has had a tremendous repercussion on the overall development in the country adding to poverty, deprivation and discrimination. In this period, the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) status has evolved from a "low" to a "concentrated" epidemic ([@B3]) after the first case of AIDS here was reported in 1988. As of 2011, national estimates indicate that approximately 50,200 adults and children are infected with HIV with a probable overall prevalence of about 0.30% in the adult population (15-49 years old)([@B4]).North London veterans Joe Black and Squeeks came as part of a wave of rappers in the late 2000s who shook up the scene and laid the foundations for the current wave of chart-conquering British rappers.

Intake of antioxidants during pregnancy and the risk of allergies and asthma in the offspring. The potential immune functions related to the damages induced by oxygen-free radicals suggest that antioxidants may have a role in the development of allergies. The objective was to investigate the association between maternal intake of antioxidants during pregnancy and the risk of asthma, rhinitis and eczema in 5-year-old children. This study was on the basis of the Finnish Type 1 Diabetes Prediction and Prevention Nutrition Study, a population-based birth cohort study with 5-year follow-up. Complete information on maternal food frequency questionnaire data and ISAAC (International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood)-based allergic outcomes were available for 2441 children.

in which the terminal connectors are located at 45.degree. to the plane of the cable inlet of the box. Although this modification has been found to be an improvement and has reduced the risk of damage to data cables connected to the outlet box, it has resulted in less space in the box for bending and manipulating the ends of the incoming coaxial cable when connecting said ends to respective terminal connectors, thereby rendering the task more difficult. In order to provide more space within the outlet box, a further type of box cover has been proposed in which the terminal connectors are arranged on one side of a shoulder or rib which extends across the box cover and slopes at an angle of 45.degree. at said one side.grand mess.

After lingering in the minor leagues for many a season, the shirt has come out of nowhere to become the rookie of the year in the T-shirt world. (Shelf Life Clothing) You'd be hard-pressed finding fans of Chief Wahoo singing this version of the Cleveland Indians fight song. But it's been a winning pitch for Cleveland T-shirt designer Brian Kirby. The "Cleveland Caucasians" is a spoof of Chief Wahoo -- and has become part of the debate on the Cleveland Indians logo.Shelf Life Clothing You could say it's the All-Star, Rookie of the Year and MVP of sports T-shirts. The logo lampoons Chief Wahoo -- adding blond hair and a dollar sign for the feather and substituting "Caucasians" for

Indians. And it's caught on – big, out of the blue. Kirby sold $20,000 worth of the shirts during one recent 24-hour period – so much so that his Cleveland home is packed with stacks of orders. "I'm working nonstop just filling orders, and I had to put my wife and 2-year-old son to work," says Kirby, a New York native who moved to Cleveland after graduating from Fordham University. "I've been selling the shirt since 2007 and never imagined it would take off like this." For years, Cleveland-based Shelf Life Clothing has been making satirical T-shirts with humorous designs. The "Cleveland Caucasians" was one of many -- such as the one that depicted notorious basketball player Ron Artest as Bruce Lee. Or the football helmet adorned with a pot-leaf emblem inhonor of weed-loving NFL running back Ricky Williams. And then, boom: He found himself – and the shirt – caught in the middle of the debate over Chief Wahoo. "A native American DJ group called A Tribe Called Red bought one about four years ago," says Kirby, referring to Ian "DJ NDN" Campeau. "I didn't think anything of it." Not until DJ NDN wore the shirt in a photo shoot that sparked a controversy. "People accused him of racism for wearing the shirt," says Kirby. "Or actually reverse racism, because he's Native American [First Nations, in Canada] and people thought he was making fun of white people." Interesting, but not a big deal – until he checked his website and saw dozens of orders for the shirt. "The Internet caught on fire, because it

raised the issue by flipping it upside down, and the orders kept on coming in," says Kirby. Sales for the T-shirt ($22) were boosted by media coverage and blogs in Canada -- and led to a full-on line of Caucasians items, from V-necks to stickers to hoodies. "I came up with the shirt to raise a point, but in a disarming way," says Kirby. "I didn't mean any spite by it." Kirby, a devoted Indians fan, wears the shirt when he attends Tribe games. "People get the joke and the point it's making," he says. "I can't wear it without someone making a positive comment." Cleveland designer Brian Kirby found himself in the middle of the Carlos Boozer story, when he created a now-defunct Web site mocking the ex-Cleveland Cavalier called carlosloozer.com.ThePlain Dealer It's not the first time Kirby has thrown himself into a sports controversy. Cavs fans of years ago might remember carlosloozer.com – a comical website he created that spoofed Carlos Boozer, the ex-Cav who spurned the team 10 years ago. "His ego got out of control and was ripe for lampooning," says Kirby. "I did it for fun, and it just took off when ESPN started talking about it." He has since retired the site and has made peace with Boozer. "Carlos was having some personal problems, and I didn't feel like doing it anymore," he says. "I'm a sports fan, but you can't take it so seriously -- it's just a game." Sports fans, ever the serious lot, have taken the whole "Cleveland Caucasians" thing in stride. "People always come up

had authority to discharge an employee of the department. 3 Appellant, Eleanor Zirin, was dismissed from government employ by the District Director, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, (appellee) by letter of November 30, 1955, separation to be effective at the close of business December 9, 1955. Appellant was originally appointed to the position of clerk-typist on February 16, 1942, and at the time of her discharge was classified as GS-5, Income Window Teller. On July 5, 1955, she received a letter from her immediate superior indicating that her services were unsatisfactory and that unless corrected within ninety days she would be given an unsatisfactory rating which could result in disciplinary action. The following day appellant acknowledged acceptance of this ninety-day warning letter. 4 On November 2, 1955, appellant received a subsequent communication from the ActingDistrict Director advising her that her performance rating was unsatisfactory, specifying particulars, and indicating that she was to be separated in not less than thirty days. Within a week appellant answered the charges set forth in the November 2nd letter. Thereafter, on November 30, 1955, appellee notified appellant that her separation was to be effective December 9, 1955, and that she had a right to appeal within ten days of receipt of the letter. Accordingly, on December 5, 1955, she appealed to the Performance Rating Board of Review which held extensive hearings on April 12 and 13, 1956. That Board sustained the unsatisfactory rating. Subsequently, appellant appealed her dismissal, without success, to the Regional Commissioner of Internal Revenue, Philadelphia, and the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, Washington. 5 On October 29,

1956, she filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, which was amended on April 30, 1957. The appellee filed a motion for summary judgment, and after argument the court by order dated December 31, 1957, stayed all proceedings pending further administrative appeals. Appeals to the United States Civil Service Commission and the Board of Appeals and Review, United States Civil Service Commission, followed and were likewise denied. Thereafter, the case came on for hearing in the district court upon appellee's motion for summary judgment. The motion was ultimately granted by order dated October 30, 1958. 6 At the threshhold the government contends that the relief sought by appellant is beyond the power of the district court to grant. It is argued thatby the President. These powers were delegated to the Alien Property Custodian in a broad executive order that transferred all the authority the President had been given. The authority was in 1946 transferred to the Attorney General but no change in the vesting power was made. Thereafter, on July 9, 1951, the President wrote identical letters to the Vice President, as President of the Senate, and to the Speaker of the House of Representatives asking for legislation terminating the state of war between the United States and Germany but preserving the vesting power as regards property of Germans which was acquired by them before January 1, 1947. The letter contained the following paragraph: 18 "Furthermore, it is not intended that the termination of the state of war shall in any

way change or alter the program, which Congress has authorized, of seizing under the Trading with the Enemy Act, German property in this country on or before December 31, 1946, and using the proceeds to pay just and legitimate claims arising from the war in accordance with the War Claims Act of 1948. The vesting of German property under this program does not extend to property acquired since the resumption of trade with Germany on January 1, 1947, following the cessation of hostilities. It is limited to German property and rights located here before or during the period of hostilities." 19 Six months later the Assistant Attorney General issued the vesting order in that case upon property which it was alleged was acquired by the German plaintiffs after December 31,1946. The Court of Claims held the President was entrusted with the vesting power and since he had formally stated to Congress that property such as that in question was not subject to vesting it was simply not subject to vesting. "Any misunderstanding by the President's subordinates, and any action later taken by them in contradiction of the President's expressed determination, could not affect the President's power to make the determination, nor the consequences of its having been made." 170 F.Supp. at page 422. 20 However that may be, the Niehaus case is far removed from the facts of the instant appeal. There the President withdrew the very power that the Attorney General later attempted to exercise. In the instant case, appellant asks us to reason that since the Secretary

109 (Revised), Supplement 5, issued by the Treasury Department Director of Personnel on July 7, 1953 — eleven days subsequent to Order No. 150-27 — delegated to the District Director authority to dismiss his employees. The District Director says that the Director of Personnel was authorized to issue Personnel Circular No. 109 pursuant to the terms of Treasury Department Order No. 120, effective July 31, 1950 and Treasury Department Order No. 72, effective October 10, 1946, both promulgated by Secretary of the Treasury John W. Snyder. The majority subscribes to the District Director's contention and bases its affirmance of the District Court's judgment on that subscription. I disagree with the majority's view in this respect. The District Director's resort to the 1946 and 1950 Treasury Department Orders in an attempt toin his new delegations to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, and further included by specific reference the 1951 Personnel Circular which excluded "Separations" without prior approval by the Secretary of the Treasury, the District Director was without authority in the instant case to dismiss the appellant. It is clear from the foregoing that the 1953 Personnel Circular, issued by the Director of Personnel eleven days after the promulgation of Secretary Humphrey's 1953 Order, was an attempted usurpation of authority by a subordinate and its unauthorized "delegation" of dismissal powers to the District Director was invalid. For reasons stated I would reverse the judgment of the District Court and remand with instructions to enter judgment in favor of the appellant.

Concentration of CO2 in the Atmosphere RI Rapidly Implementing FiT’s for Distributed Generation Prices for Multiple Differentiated Tariffs to be set by September 30, 2011 The Small State has one of the Highest Renewable Energy Standards in the US By Paul Gipe September 14, 2011 In a move that took North American renewable energy advocates by surprise, tiny Rhode Island has passed a law implementing a limited feed-in tariff and set it on a fast track to implementation. The law passed the legislature and was signed by Governor Lincoln Chafee on 29 June, 2011. Chafee is a former Republican Senator representing Rhode Island in the US Congress. He joins former Governor of Hawaii, Linda Lingle, as a GOP or former GOP office holder signing feed-in tariff legislation. Rhode Island becomes only the second state in theNortheast to implement a feed-in tariff program and one of the few states in the US to do so. While not the first with a feed-in tariff, Rhode Island may set a record for the rapidity of implementation. Specific differentiated tariffs must be set by the end of September and the program launched in mid-October. The statute states explicitly the annual target of contracts for distributed generation. Five MW of contracts will be offered in 2011, that is, between mid-October and December of this year. December 31, 2011: 5 MW December 31, 2012: 20 MW December 31, 2013: 30 MW December 31, 2014: 40 MW The statute defines distributed generation as a renewable energy generator less than 5 MW. This is substantially less than the working definition in California where Governor Jerry Brown has proposed

Wildfire burning near Yosemite threatens 500 structures MARIPOSA >> Firefighters from throughout California were being dispatched Tuesday to protect homes threatened by an out-of-control wildfire burning in the foothills near Yosemite National Park, the second fire around the park in recent weeks. The nearly 2-square-mile blaze in Madera County had destroyed eight structures and was threatening 500 others around Oakhurst, which is about 16 miles away from an entrance to Yosemite, fire officials said. Officials were hopeful, though, that cooler temperatures, higher humidity and calmer winds expected on Tuesday would help them begin containing the blaze. It was not clear how many of the structures under threat were homes, but mandatory evacuation orders went out to some 13,000 phone numbers for homes and businesses on Monday, according to sheriff’s officials. Four hotelsin the community of Oakhurst about 16 miles away from an entrance to Yosemite were evacuated and Tuesday classes have been canceled for most of the Yosemite Unified School District. State Route 41 toward Yosemite was closed down in the area and travelers would need to use different routes into the park, authorities said. The fire was burning near a propane business with 30,000 gallon tanks on site, but the tanks were spared and the threat to them was brief, according to the Modesto Bee. The fire comes on the heels of another blaze around Yosemite this summer and last year’s Rim Fire, which raged for two months across 400 square miles of land including part of Yosemite National Park. The Rim Fire threatened thousands of structures, destroyed 11 homes and

When people contribute to Islamophobic ideas that Muslims are not able to govern themselves, that they need some outside forces to bring democracy on them, it justifies intervention, or the idea that the West needs to liberate Muslim women from these countries, we justify the intervention that causes a cycle of violence for oil and resources. This colonial and imperialistic behavior of the United States is not new. Literature has shown that the military has adopted a metaphor of referring to places with resources ripe for intervention, like the Middle East as “Indian Country.” The behavior modeled is not new because it is how the US exists in the first place, stealing land, resources, and the lives of indigenous and black people. So while we continue to see privatization and extraction on indigenous land, The additional deuterocanonical books may be read in public worship, but are not used to formulate dogma or doctrine.

Do you think Rick even cares what started the virus outbreak anymore? Gene Page/AMC The INSIDER Summary: "The Walking Dead" creator Robert Kirkman told fans at San Diego Comic-Con he knows what caused the zombie virus in the comic series. He says it's dumb and won't ever tell anyone. It's not the first time Kirkman has said he knows the cause of the virus. In the past, Kirkman has said he wouldn't tell because he found the idea of scientists working on a cure and finding its origins boring. As "The Walking Dead" enters its eighth season this October, there's still one lingering mystery that hasn't been resolved. How did the zombie outbreak start and spread across the globe? While fans have been guessing for years, there's one man who knows the answer, but hedoesn't plan on sharing the secret anytime soon. Maybe ever. "I know what caused the virus in 'The Walking Dead,' but it's dumb. I'll never tell anyone," creator Robert Kirkman told fans at San Diego Comic-Con Thursday during a panel for Kirkman himself. This isn't the first time Kirkman has said he would never tell anyone the origin of his apocalyptic world. In the past, Kirkman has said fans would never learn about the cause of the outbreak because he didn't think it was important to the story. Fans thought we may finally find out more about the zombie apocalypse's origins when AMC launched the series' spinoff, "Fear the Walking Dead," which takes place before the main series, but that hasn't been the case. "As far as digging down to actually find

Travis was a teacher before the zombie apocalypse broke out. Frank Ockenfels 3/AMC It would certainly be an explanation, but a bit of a bummer if that was the actual answer. As Kirkman said, he'll never tell anyone, at least for now. That doesn't mean "The Walking Dead" and its companion series "Fear" can't continue to drop some hints along the way to stir up fan theories. "The Walking Dead" will return to AMC October 22.

Resulted in a massacre of 32 Jews. The following year, Emperor Frederick II of Hohenstaufen established an investigation at Hagenau to confirm or disprove the charges. After hearing various experts, including Jewish converts to Christianity, he declared that since Jews are prohibited from eating animal blood, they would surely be banned from using human blood. He forbade anyone to accuse Jews of ritual murder", Privilegium e sententia in favorem iudaeorum . Pope Innocent IV also condemned the accusations as unfounded. I. INTRODUCTION In 2006, Mia Eriksson was a 17-year-old equestrian eventing competitor and the daughter of plaintiffs and appellants, Karan and Stan Eriksson.1 Defendant and respondent, Kristi Nunnink, was Mia‟s riding coach. In November 2006, Mia‟s horse struck a hurdle during the cross-country portion of an event at Galway Downs in Temecula. With the Erikssons looking on, Mia fell off her horse and the horse fell on Mia, causing her death. The Erikssons sued Nunnink for wrongful death and negligent infliction of emotional distress (NIED). The Erikssons alleged that Nunnink substantially increased the risk Mia reasonably assumed by, among other actions, allowing Mia to ride a horse that “was unfit

competitive eventing season runs from late January through November. Different eventing organizations use different nomenclature for a competition‟s level of difficulty. International, or FEI, competitions are classified as one-star, two-star, three-star, or four-star. National competitions under the auspices of the United States Dressage is “the art or method of training a horse in obedience and in precision 3 of movement.” (Webster‟s Encyclopedic Unabridged Dict. (1996) p. 596.) 3 Equestrian Federationexplained that her students would not necessarily advance to a higher level merely by competing in a certain number of events. In fact, she would discourage her students from advancing before mastering their current level. The Erikssons hired Nunnink to be Mia‟s eventing coach in 2001. In 2005 and 2006, Nunnink had two or three coaching sessions with Mia each week. The sessions took place at the Erikssons‟ Tahoe Meadows horse ranch in the Truckee area. In May 2006, Mia and Nunnink entered into a release of liability agreement in which Mia agreed to release Nunnink from all liability except for damages caused by 4 According to an expert witness for the Erikssons, the

struck his knees on various jumps. At Twin Rivers in September, Kory “hook[ed] the stifle” during the cross-country event. Nunnink explained that hooking a stifle occurs when the horse hits the uppermost portion of the rear legs against a fence during a jump. The incident caused swelling in the area of the injury. The Twin Rivers veterinarian indicated that Kory had a bruise and said they should put ice on it. The veterinarian said that if Kory “trotted sound” in the morning he could show jump. Kory received no further medical attention at that time. The next day, Kory performed in the show-jumping event and, according to Nunnink, was “fine.” He did not receive any medication for the Twin Rivers injury. After Twin Rivers, Nunnink told Karan she wanted Miato compete at Ram Tap, which was not on the original schedule. Karan agreed. B. Ram Tap The Ram Tap competition took place on October 20 through 22, 2006. During the cross-country event on the second day, Kory tripped and fell near the 18th jump. A Ram Tap event veterinarian, Dr. Liz Bracken, examined Kory. Dr. Bracken indicated that Kory had swelling and a hematoma on his chest and had suffered a concussion. She said they needed to watch him carefully. Kory was given Bute, an anti-inflammatory, and other medications. According to Karan, the evening after Kory‟s Ram Tap fall, she told Nunnink, “We‟re done,” meaning that Mia‟s eventing season was finished. Nunnink did not argue,

perfectly healthy.” Kory and Mia had an eventing lesson on October 29 and, in Nunnink‟s opinion, Kory jumped very well. On October 29, Nunnink trailered Kory to her facility in Auburn, where Kory stayed for the next two nights. During that time, Kory was not being administered any medications. On October 30, Mia and Kory performed jumps to prepare for Galway Downs. Nunnink thought the lesson went well. She testified that Karan observed the jumping session; Karan said she did not. C. Galway Downs Galway Downs was, like other eventing competitions, a three-day event with dressage on Friday, cross-country jumping on Saturday, and show jumping on Sunday. The competition was scheduled for 8 November 2 and gave Mia a dressage lesson that afternoon. Stan drove to Galway Downs on November 2. Karan, believing that Mia would only compete in dressage, had decided not to travel to Galway Downs. Prior to the start of the Galway Downs event, the horses undergo an in-barn inspection, where they are checked by a veterinarian, and participate in a “trot out.” Dr. Karen Nyrop was the veterinarian who conducted the Galway Downs in-barn inspection. She testified at trial that she noticed a bruise on Kory‟s chest and was aware that he had hit a fence at Ram Tap. The bruise was not inflamed and Kory showed no pain when

she did not observe any significant lameness during Kory‟s trot out. Wayne Quarles, the president of the ground jury, also observed the trot out. He testified that Kory passed the trot out without any dissention among the observers. Prior to testifying at trial, he viewed a videotape of Kory‟s Galway Downs trot out; he saw no signs of lameness in Kory and heard no sound of unevenness in his gait. 9  On November 3,could not remember speaking to Karan about Mia‟s performance in dressage. Karan and Stan watched Mia‟s cross-country run. Under the rules applicable at Galway Downs, a rider is penalized each time a horse refuses to make a required jump. A refusal includes not only the failure to make the jump, but also circling around to make a second approach before taking the jump. Once a rider has four refusals, the rider is eliminated from the competition. During her cross-country run, Kory had such refusals at fences 4, 5, 10A, 17A, and 17B. Upon the fourth refusal, Mia was, by rule, eliminated from competition and required to leave the course. However, she continued on. Kory hit the fence at jump No. 19, causing a rotational fall—a fall in which the

nonparticipant for the conduct covered by the release would, in essence, negate the effectiveness of the release and discourage the teaching of the sport. This adversely affects the community as a whole. Additionally, for a coach or other involved entity to fully protect themselves from liability they, in essence, would be required to obtain releases from all close relatives who may watch the participant engage in the sport. This would be unworkable. Many sports involve team participation with numerous participants on a team. It is foreseeable that parents and siblings will attend team games. If the coach or sponsoring entity has received signed releases from the members of the team, it seems nonsensical to require each family member to sign a release similar to that signed by the participant in In addition to the facts as set forth in part II. of this opinion, the Erikssons called two experts, a board certified equine surgeon and a coach/trainer of riders and horses, to testify. Dr. Elaine Carpenter is a board certified equine surgeon. She viewed videotapes of Kory in competition and opined on Kory‟s health, neurological condition, and the circumstances surrounding his performance. Overall, she observed both lameness and brain injury in Kory that existed prior to the rotational fall that killed Mia. Dr. Carpenter noted that Kory had sustained an injury to both of his stifles prior to Galway Downs. And in the fall at Ram Tap,

right foot hits the ground, his head comes up, and when the left foot hits the ground, his head stays down. This, Dr. Carpenter stated, is a clear indication of lameness, which could be characterized as two on the AAEP scale. A veterinarian would be able to notice the lameness during dressage. Indeed, she believed that Kory‟s lameness during dressage is very obvious and can even be seen by a layperson. As to the neurological problems, Dr. Carpenter observed an inconsistency in Kory‟s gait in the dressage, which was indicative of issues stemming from a concussion. In comparing videotapes of the Ram Tap dressage with the Galway Downs dressage, it was clear to Dr. Carpenter that Kory is concentrating at Ram Tap and not concentrating at Galway Downs, another sign ofIn short, when Kory was presented incorrectly to jumps at Ram Tap, he was able to perform; at Galway Downs, he was not. Dr. Carpenter stated that as Kory approached jump No. 19, he kept changing his mind about jumping. Kory dug in his rear feet as if he were trying to come to a sliding stop, but his brain was saying “you better get this front end over this jump or we‟re going to crash into it.” Kory‟s brain had slowed such that he was unable to process the situation. A horse with a healthy brain and body could have overcome Mia‟s mistakes. In Dr. Carpenter‟s opinion, the rotational fall at jump No. 19 was due to Kory‟s neurological deficits caused by the concussion suffered at Ram Tap.

jump No. 18, Mia and Kory appeared to be off balance. In approaching jump No. 19, Kory began his jump from a point too close to a planter, struck his abdomen at the top of the planter, and caught his hind leg on the 43 planter. This caused a rotational fall, throwing Mia off the horse. Approximately 15 to 20 percent of the falls in eventing are rotational falls. David Johnson is a trainer of horses and riders, and has served as acoach in equestrian events. He has never been a judge in three-day eventing. Johnson viewed the videotapes of Kory‟s performances at Ram Tap and Galway Downs. At Ram Tap, Kory suffered a near rotational fall—a “rugged fall for a horse”— with his nose hitting the ground and his forelegs hitting his chest. At Galway Downs, Kory appears injured, and not as healthy as he was at Ram Tap. After a fall like the one Kory suffered at Ram Tap, Johnson would have been very concerned about the trauma to Kory‟s head and postponed any activities for Kory for at least one month. Johnson acknowledged that Dr. Bracken‟s report after the Ram Tap fall shows mentation normal, which would indicate Kory was not, at

that time, displaying any mental problems from the fall. He further acknowledged that Dr. Bracken‟s report indicated that Kory was checked and rechecked and the complete examination was normal. Nonetheless, after Dr. Bracken indicated that Kory should be monitored, the trainer should have had Kory‟s regular veterinarian look at him. Johnson testified that he could not see any signs of lameness in Kory based upon viewing the Galway Downs dressage in isolation. However, he concluded that Kory was lame at Galway Downs based upon a comparison with Kory‟s performance at Ram Tap. At Ram Tap, Johnson said, Kory was balanced and pleasant during dressage; at Galway Downs, he was tense and his walk was not free flowing. In Johnson‟s opinion, it would concussion and needed to be watched carefully. However, Kory‟s musculoskeletal and neurological examinations were within normal limits and nothing in Dr. Bracken‟s reports indicated lameness. Nunnink testified that, in the period between Ram Tap and Galway Downs, Kory appeared “perfectly healthy” and had been jumping well during lessons. At Galway Downs, Dr. Nyrop, the event veterinarian who conducted the in-barn inspection of Kory and observed Kory‟s trot out, saw no significant lameness in Kory and found him fit to compete. Quarles, the president of the ground jury, also observed the trot out and saw no signs of lameness in Kory. Quarles also judged Kory‟s dressage event and saw nothing to suggest Kory was lame or unfit. Although the Erikssons‟ experts testified that Kory had signs of lameness during the Galway Downs trot out and dressage, the trial court

This eidolon gives her legs, physical might, and sharp claws, while Arianna's soul normally drives the melded battle beast. On rare occasions, the soul of the eidolon will voice its opinion, usually in a gruff and bitter manor. After only her first paid adventure, Arianna had made enough money to buy herself a home above the waterline. This home is a four story townhouse in the merchant district, not far down the bay from the DWI. Two stories are dry, while the other two are under water. The former owner was a merfolk merchant that had the home custom built for his lifestyle.But, his wanderlust got the better of him, and he moved north. Top floor, three bedrooms and an office. Gnomish stained glass windows and fine stone sleeping tubs. Second floor: a small store front room with a window to the street, an public office, kitchen, pantry closet and dining room. Third floor: reinforced stained glass bay window to take in the sunset light. Fine grate current windows with heavy bronze seal-able doors can either let in the gentle tide or be securely sealed against a storm surge. Bottom floor: No windows, reinforced walls and door, dark sleeping chambers for a wet nights sleep in still waters. Secret passage from top of pantry closet to roof bypassing the top floor. Ladder trapped with three axes designed to cut intruders or ropes. Every door and window in the home as a different key. The north

and south walls are shared with gnomish merchant's homes on either side. Apparently bay side real estate is crammed tightly together. Arianna is the youngest of the family. Her three older brothers help their father, who is a wealthy merchant, at work. She got fed up with their chauvinistic "look pretty until you can find a husband" attitude. So, with a little planning, Arianna set out to show up her brothers who would not dare leave the protection of the sea. She is heading out to make a name for herself, and to prove that she should be the heir to the family business. After all, she is the first in the family to be blessed with mystic powers.building structure, and driving courses that involve live fire. It's widely used by U.S. government and law enforcement, and is accredited by the U.S. government. Facility used since 1997 Since 2005, 605 Canadian Forces soldiers have been trained at Blackwater or Xe. Some of the money was paid to rent the facility, known as the United States Training Center, but used Canadian Forces trainers to teach, the documents say. "Note that this figure merely reflects the number of CF personnel who were trained at the facility; a number of CF elements provided their own instructors and simply utilized the facilities." A spokesman for the Department of National Defence says the Canadian Forces have been using the U.S. Training Center since 1997. The forces can't always train in Canada because the facilities don't

a source of controversy Blackwater, a private security contractor used widely in Iraq and Afghanistan, changed its name to Xe Services in 2009 and then changed it again last December to Academi. The company's website says it has assisted in more than 60,000 security missions in the past seven years in hostile environments. It has also provided training to more than 10,000 foreign military and counterterrorism specialists, law enforcement agents and 50,000 U.S. government personnel. It has also been a source of controversy, after a 2007 shooting in Baghdad that killed 17 Iraqis. It led the Iraqi government to deny the company a licence renewal. Last year, a U.S. appeals court revived a manslaughter case against four ex-Blackwater Worldwide guards involved in the shooting. The company's website says it has a 28-square-kilometre(7,000-acre) training centre in Moyock, N.C., the largest private training centre in the U.S. The training centre includes 50 tactical ranges, three ship-boarding simulators, two airfields and three drop zones, as well as a tactical driving track and explosive training ranges. The Canadian government has had a standing offer arrangement with Xe since 2008. "The SOA was awarded without a competitive bid process, because it was assessed that Xe Services had the only facility capable of meeting the operational requirements for specialized training of CF personnel," the documents say.

Jon Anderson (Citibank Hall, São Paulo, 13/12/11) Birds chirping, a babbling tune squeaked easy to store, acoustic instruments, scented candles everywhere, lamps suspended in the half light … No, it will not deal with a store of esoteric products, dear reader, but the show’s British Jon Anderson, the eternal voice of YES, who came to our country for a brief tour in promotion of their album “Survival & Other Stories” . On Tuesday, 13, Whiplash.net could give his presentation in the state capital, when the musician was in the pleasant Citibank Hall. The moment was very special and you follow the details in the next lines. Alone, at 21:30, Jon kicks in lavishing sympathy and heartfelt applause. Without ado, holds one of the guitars available there and gives the firstchords of “Yours Is No Disgrace”, one of many classics of his former band played during his performance.

Or you can say the opposite of hymns flawless level of “Sweet Dreams,” “Long Distance Runaround” (belíssima!) and “Time and a Word”, the second self-titled album, released in 1970? Also, on this record somewhat obscure in the discography of the English group, it is noteworthy musical quality in each of the eight tracks present. Far ahead of his time, Time and a Word, disk , and one of my favorites, is indeed a work extremely well finished and worth more attentive hearing, including the fact marking the departure of the great guitarist Peter

Banks ( Editor’s note: that formed the great Flash after his resignation from YES, A group widely recognized in Europe on behalf of their three excellent albums released ). Image After a brief joke interspersed with the previous song “She Loves You” by The Beatles , Jon explains that during the months he spent recovering from a surgery he had time to write enough material, much of having his wife Jane as inspiration. This season he chose “Under Heaven’s Door (Never Ever)” and “Everyday Love” actually good songs, but the reception only increased even when he announced “Find My Way Home”, probably the most famous partnership with the Greek musician Vangelis, present in the cult album The Friends on Mr. Cairo (1981). Anderson took the opportunity to recall a hilariousstory of when they were invited to play the aforementioned music, which achieved excellent placement in the British charts, on TV. Vangelis initially refused because, according to Jon, did not support the “hype” of the industry of show business. However, it was just mentioning the word “black money” for the boy change his mind in the act!

In 1324, he became the first Muslim ruler to make the almost four-thousand-mile pilgrimage. During his travels, he met rulers from the Middle East and Europe, putting Mali on European maps. He helped boost Islamic education when he brought back scholars from his pilgrimage; he also brought back government bureaucrats and architects. His development of mosques and a major university helped urbanize the city of Timbuktu, which is still inhabited to this day. He reigned for 25 years, and during that time there were years of peace in Western Africa. This is a story that is well overdue.

Just a misunderstanding? Still, a toy monkey hanging from a power line sparks concern A stuffed monkey hanging from an overhead utility line in an apartment complex near Bowman Field has sparked racial concerns and reports to a Louisville Metro Council member. The incident was reported to Councilman Brandon Coan, D-8th District, who initially called it a "disgusting display of hatred, bigotry and racism." But later, after visiting the apartment complex and speaking with at least three residents, Coan said it's possible the whole thing was a misunderstanding. One neighbor told him it had been hung a few years ago to discourage birds along with other dolls that were no longer there. Others said it had been there for months or for just a few days, he said. The scene appeared to playon the history in the United States of African Americans being lynched and portraying them as monkeys. "It is hard to see it as anything other than an expression of hate," said Louisville resident Brian Barnes, who lives in the area. He reported the incident to Coan. "This is shocking and unwelcome in a normally tranquil and friendly place. It's very upsetting to many of us in the neighborhood." Coan said he was pleased that a work crew removed the toy at his request. But he questioned whether the incident might be an example of how on edge the community is in light of renewed racial tensions and the speed at which social media moves. Last week, there were deadly demonstrations by white-power groups in Virginia, followed by controversial comments by
