subchapter place administrative burdens on the District of Puerto Rico, ranging from the requirement that courts deposit collected fees to the credit of the United States, 48 U.S.C. § 868, to the demand that all judicial officials be citizens of the United States, 48 U.S.C. § 874. Thus, Congress' placement of the English language requirement alongside these statutorily-mandated court responsibilities evinces an intent to place an independent duty on courts to ensure that all evidence is presented in English. 18 Finally, given how obvious Jones Act violations are, there is no need for contemporaneous party objections. In the instant case, for example, the court knew that foreign language evidence was being presented without translation: approximately 180 Spanish tapes were played in open court throughout four days of trial without translation.and remand his case for a new trial.13 B. Toro-Santiago's Sufficiency Challenge 42 Toro-Santiago also challenges the sufficiency of the evidence upon which his conviction rests. Like Hernández, Toro-Santiago argues that the government failed to establish his active participation in the drug conspiracy. 43 After reviewing the English language evidence presented against the appellant, we again find that there is sufficient evidence in the English language record to sustain Toro-Santiago's conviction. First, Agent Cases testified to several telephone conversations that Toro-Santiago had with co-defendant Naranjo-Rosa in which they discussed their drug trafficking activities, using terms such as "hydraulic oil" and "bits" to refer to drugs and "madera" to refer to money. Second, Special Agent Harold Clouse testified that the notebooks seized from Toro-Santiago's residence contained notations "in the format of those that would

be kept by an illegitimate heroin distribution network." Lastly, cooperating witnesses Daniel Sánchez-Ortiz and Alberto Negrón-Constantino testified that they purchased drugs from Toro-Santiago during the period of the charged conspiracy. 44 Drawing all legitimate inferences in favor of the prosecution, the evidence establishes that Toro-Santiago was an active member of the drug conspiracy who was familiar with its coded drug references, kept records of its dealings, and furthered its purpose by selling drugs to two of the government's witnesses. See Aponte-Suarez, 905 F.2d at 490 ("A conspiratorial agreement may be proven by circumstantial evidence, and the plan may be inferred from a development and collation of circumstances." (internal citations omitted)). 45 We therefore find sufficient evidence in the English language record to sustain Toro-Santiago's conviction; however, in order to actually affirm appellant'spin joints, mechanically in series, between the common closing operating member and the movable contact rods of certain of the interrupters, and PA1 (b) the natural closing bias force on the movable contact rods of such interrupters which results from the pressure differential across the usual bellows of each such interrupter. When the contacts of the interrupter are open, the above condition (b) results in the clearances in the pin joints being located on the common-operating-member side of the pin joints. But near the end of the closing operation, when the contacts first touch and wipe-spring force is developed on each contact rod, the loading on the contact rod reverses, causing the pins of the pin joints to shift in their bearings to the opposite side of the bearings.

The traditional narrative around online/over-the-top video is that it will incent cord-cutting and cord-nevering. But now, in a twist, instead of a looming battle between OTT and pay-TV, it could well be that we're on the brink of a new era of cooperation between the two, which could have profound implications for everyone in the video ecosystem. Stepping back for a moment, pay-TV operators have always been in the business of improving the delivery of available video and packaging it into bundles. Initially operators distributed broadcast channels and then in the 70's and 80's, with the advent of satellite delivery, operatorsbegan bundling "cable" channels as well (e.g. ESPN, MTV, CNN, USA, etc.). As I explained earlier this week, the success of AOL-Adap.tv is riding on 3 key market trends, the shift from linear TV style viewing to anywhere/anytime/any device viewing, the democratization of video production and distribution which has led to a plethora of online originals, and the influence of technology in the ad buying/selling process. AOL is seeking to capitalize on all this through Adap.tv's programmatic platform. Meanwhile Tremor Video, whose stock has had a bumpy start since the company went public in early July, posted a strong 2nd quarter, with revenue growing by 41% year-over-year. As CEO Bill Day explained on the earnings call, key to this was a focus on premium performance-based in-stream video advertising, which grew

Tremor Video, after spending 9 years at Meredith Corp, most recently as SVP of Digital. Meredith has been among the most active magazine publishers with video through its Meredith Video Studios business. The unit creates original video that is syndicated to YouTube and other online outlets along with VOD, and provides videos to Meredith's numerous magazines' online properties. Tremor Video announced earlier today that in June it served 98.3% of its in-stream video ads in players that were 400 pixels or bigger. Tremor has found that the bigger-sized players drive double the engagement rate and also boost completion rates for ads. Based on its own analytics, Tremor found that for ads appearing in 400-500 pixel players, 62% of viewers watched to completion and for ads appearing in a 500-700is now available for brands and agencies to license for use with any 3rd party ad server, ad network or publisher. Tremor unveiled Video Hub in May and since then over 200 brands and agencies have used it with Tremor's own ad server on its ad network as the company finished up development. Anthony Risicato, Tremor's GM for Video Hub told me last week that reactions from these early users have been positive and they've been eager to expand their use of Video Hub to also track and measure the effectiveness of non-Tremor elements of their video ad campaigns. At the ELEVATE conference on Tuesday a number of our partners made product and partnership announcements which I mentioned were coming in a teaser last Friday. Each helps move the

By Jason Cochran advertisement A small airport an hour away from Walt Disney World has trademarked its name to associate itself with the tourist powerhouse of Orlando—and it can cause confusion when theme park visitors book airfare. Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB) is actually closer to Daytona Beach (about 40 miles) than Walt Disney World (50 miles), but that hasn't stopped officials from filing a trademark with the U.S. Patent Office to cement the word "Orlando" into the airport's name so that it can get a piece of the estimated

68 million visits to Orlando annually. Partly because of that name, online booking engines are returning results for the airport during searches for Orlando. Frank Kruppenbacher, the chair of the board that oversees the main airport, Orlando International, is well aware of the confusion. "When you put in 'Orlando Airport,' to have that pop up and create massive confusion, there's a problem with that," he told a local news program. Some customers who think they're flying to the main airport for Orlando, Orlando International (MCO), which is just 23 miles east of Disney and the only airport served by Disney's Magical Express coaches, actually wind up somewhere else—at SFB, in a quiet patch of Florida between Orlando and the Atlantic Coast, twice as far from the attractions. Sanford Airport is easy tonot familiar with Florida's geography, there's no way to realize during the ticket booking process that the word "Sanford" refers to the outlying town you'll be flying to, and not the name of some forgotten aviator or dignitary who was honored by having the main airport named for them. MCO's board has also gone after the similarly renamed Orlando Melbourne International Airport on similar grounds, although there are apparently fewer reports of passenger confusion there. SFB has seen its traffic grow steadily, year-on-year, since 2011. Competition with MCO has been cutthroat—many European vacation companies and Icelandair used to fly to Sanford, but switched after MCO slashed landing fees to attract them to the more popular airfield. The smaller airport has had to be creative to keep its operations healthy.

The Elk Grove Police Department on Wednesday released a video, hoping the public can help identify a suspect in a stabbing during a fight last month near a busy intersection in broad daylight. The stabbing occurred about 5 p.m. on Feb. 27 near the intersection of Calvine Road and Elk Grove Florin Road, about a mile east of Highway 99. Officers were called to the area for a report of two people fighting in the road. Elk Grove police said the video of the fight and the stabbing was captured on a witness’ cell phone. Police officials edited the video and released it on Facebook, which does not show the stabbing. Click to resize The video shows one person in a white shirt momentarily running away before getting in a white car,while another person in a black vest and black helmet picks up something from the street and gets on a motorcycle. The suspect stabbed the victim during the fight, according to police. The victim, who suffered non-life-threatening injuries, was taken to a local hospital by a relative. Police said the suspect drove away on a motorcycle after the stabbing. Police described the stabbing suspect as a white man wearing a black helmet, a black vest, blue jeans and black shoes. Detectives ask anyone with information regarding this stabbing to call 916-478-8043. Tips also can be sent via text message by entering CRIMES followed by TIP732 and the message.

into 3 clades. Clade B includes, in addition to Tacaribe and Amapari viruses, the Category A human pathogenic viruses Junín (Argentine hemorrhagic fever), Machupo (Bolivian hemorrhagic fever), Guanarito (Venezuelan hemorrhagic fever), and Sabiá (Brazilian hemorrhagic fever). These Category A viruses are capable of causing severe and often fatal hemorrhagic fever disease in humans. Rodents are the natural host of arenaviruses, although Tacaribe virus is found in bats. The arenaviruses characteristically produce chronic viremic infections in their natural host,15 which in turn shed virus in their urine and feces, ultimately infecting humans in close contact with these infected materials either by aerosol or direct contact with skin abrasions or cuts. The natural history of the human disease is determined by the pathogenicity of the virus, its geographical distribution, the habitatas we expect to win this case ultimately. The case stemmed from the media company’s decision to publish an edited sex tape showing the former wrestler having sex with Heather Clem, the ex-wife of shock jock Bubba the Love Sponge Clem. At the crux of the trial was the disputed news value of the tape: Gawker Media alleged its publication of the tape was protected by the First Amendment given its perceived newsworthiness; Hogan’s legal team argued that the tape unjustly pried into his personal life. The jury rendered its verdict just hours after closing arguments concluded Friday afternoon. In the runup to the trial, Denton told The New York Times and others that a sizable judgment in Hogan’s favor could deal a financially crippling blow to the Manhattan-based media company.

We feel very sorry that the congress in Turkey didn't work out and hope the organizing team will reapply to hold this event in the future! You can check out the proposals: Oberhof (Germany) Update (1st Dec 2016): Following the recommendation of the EGF board the turkish organizing committee stepped back last week. In the meantime the EGF board managed to find two alternatives one from Germany (Oberhof) and one from Russia (Sochi).

# 129 01.12.2016 16:52 @Burkhard: In Summer, the Turkish organiser asked the AGM about thier opinion on running an EGC 2017 in Turkey. There was no formal vote, but every representative made a short statement. The majority encouraged Kerem to do it, so he walked away and carried on with his organisation. With the political situation getting not really better in Turkey and with a very short list of registrations, about two weeks ago Kerem then again contacted the EGF, asking whether it still would be a good idea to have it in Turkey. This time, the board reacted and took the congress back. So it is not quite true to say the EGF took it back from Turkey agianst their will. It was helpful at the time thatcountry members in the dark. The board eventually broke a decision of the general assembly without even communicating with its members. Second the constitution of the EGF foresees the following (Article 3.4, §2). "The Executive Committee shall decide on all matters not otherwise reserved to another body of the EGF. In an emergency situation, the Executive Committee may, by a two-thirds majority of votes cast, pass resolutions, which are normally the prerogatives of the General Meeting, unless such decision is expressly excluded in these bylaws or in the regulations of the EGF. In such cases, the members shall be notified promptly of these measures. If a majority of the members eligible to vote, responding within thirty days of the date of the notice, signifies its disapproval, the measure shall

However we observe that the board has not communicated on it during the months that followed the Saint-Petersburg congress until the decision to change the host country was already made. This leads to the conclusion that the board of the EGF intentionally kept all country members in the dark. The board eventually broke a decision of the general assembly without even communicating with its members.Second the constitution of the EGF foresees the following (Article 3.4, §2).

B. The Open Handset Alliance and Development ofthe Android Platform 11. The Android Platform (“Android”) is a freely-distributed, open-source software stack for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware and key mobile applications. Android was released in 2007 by a group of seventy-eight technology and mobile companies known as the Open Handset Alliance (“OHA”) who have come together to accelerate innovation in mobile devices and offer consumers a richer, less expensive, and better mobile experience. The members of the OHA, which include Google, mobile operators, handset manufacturers, semiconductor companies, software companies and commercialization companies, are each strongly committed to greater openness in the mobile ecosystem. 12. The OHA believes that an open platform – a platform that provides equal access to any who would choose to develop software for the platform – is essential

Android was first released in November of 2007, Sun CEO Jonathan Schwartz confirmed this fact, congratulating Android and stating that “needless to say, Google and the Open Handset Alliance just strapped another set of rockets to the community’s momentum – and to the vision defining opportunity across our (and other) planets.” 22. The success of the Android platform is due in large part to its open nature, which benefits the entire open source community of consumers, developers, manufacturers, and mobile operators. Android’s permissive open source license allows developers and manufacturers to innovate rapidly under their own terms while simultaneously protecting their proprietary intellectual property, if so desired. Because Android provides open and comprehensive access to handset capabilities and developer tools, developers experience increased productivity and are better ableWofford to present 'True West' in theatre faculty showcase SPARTANBURG, S.C. - Wofford Theatre's upcoming production of "True West" is as much a tribute to the playwright, the late Sam Shepard, as it is a valuable educational experience for students. "True West," opening Wednesday, Feb. 28, is the inaugural professional production in the Sallenger Sisters Black Box Theatre in the Rosalind Sallenger Richardson Center for the Arts. Performances will be held at 8 nightly through Saturday, March 3, with a 2 p.m. matinee on Saturday as well. The play also will be Wofford's inaugural faculty showcase, starring Dr. Mark Ferguson, the Department of Theatre's chairman and director of Wofford Theatre, and Daniel Day, assistant professor of theatre. Daniel Murray, department chair of acting/movement at the South Carolina Governor's School for the

celebrating his work. The other is bound up with the mission of the theatre department to constantly improve the student learning experience through whatever means possible." Ferguson says he and Day were closer to the ages of the characters of Austin and Lee as Shepard wrote them when Day first suggested, shortly after he arrived at Wofford in 2010, that the play would be "a good fit for us." "It was less about our ages and genders than that 'True West' nailed the bullseye of our departmental mission to produce works that ask exciting and troubling questions about the nature and purpose of human existence," Ferguson adds. "It just took eight years - and the playwright's death - for the pieces to fall into place." Murray considers the production asort of destiny, saying he and Day - "classmate, fellow actor, director, theatre founder, colleague" - are "artistic brothers." "The idea was that Dan and Mark, who also have a kind of simpatico born of hard work and mutual passions, would embody Lee and Austin, and Wofford Theatre students would be elemental to the cast and production team, learning the old-fashioned way through apprenticeship to masters of the craft," Murray adds. "Our aims are simple, but not easy," he says. "We are responsible for giving voice and soul to these characters. We embrace their fears and shortcomings and madness and absurdity, never commenting on them or judging them, but rather revealing them … and ourselves through them. We trust that they have something to say to us about us all

something great. We revel in this chance to bring Sam Shepard's work to the Wofford community." Students are in key positions in the professional-level production, Ferguson adds. "Stage management, the design and production team, the run crew and the cast are populated with current theatre majors, all of whom are getting the intense 'front row' experience of working on a show like this one. Beyond that, all of the students in the department, and at the college, will have a chance to witness two of their professors, who regularly ask so much of them on stage and in the classroom, 'put their money where their mouths are,' so to speak." Sam Shepard, an actor and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, died in the summer of 2017 at the age of 73; thecause was complications of Lou Gehrig's Disease. The New York Times classified him as "one of the most important and influential writers of his generation, (specializing) in capturing the darker sides of American family life." Shephard wrote more than 55 plays - his last, "A Particle of Dread," had its premiere in 2014 - acted in more than 50 films and had more than a dozen roles on television. He also was the author of several prose works, including "Cruising Paradise" and the memoir "Motel Chronicles." Though he received critical acclaim almost from the beginning of his career, and his work has been staged throughout the world, he was never a mainstream commercial playwright.

Trout Point Lodge of Nova Scotia is pleased to announce that it will be featured in a new international cookbook celebrating the 25th anniversary of Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH). Over 215 hotels are featured in this enticing culinary manual. Trout Point will be the only hotel representing Canada. The recipe submitted by the Lodge's chef/proprietors Vaughn Perret & Charles Leary, and accepted by the British editorial team in charge of the project features local Nova Scotia ingredients, prominently lobster and scallops. "Scallop and lobster ravigote with asparagus & organic quinoa" appears alongside an illustrtive photo of the dish. Printed to the highest standards in full colour, the glossy Small Luxury Cookbook will be bound in hard covers, and distributed through all participating hotels to their guests. Tensof thousands of SLH Club Members will also receive copies. The Small Luxury Cookbook will be unveiled at the SLH International Conference later this month in Marbella, Spain. Trout Point Lodge has been a member of the prestigious boutique hotel group since 2011. The cookbook will also have a directory of all participating hotel restaurants. In 2014, Trout Point Lodge was named among the World's Best Restaurant Hotels by the Five Star Alliance. Trout Point Lodge of Nova Scotia will be the world's first certified Starlight Hotel, a distinction given by the Starlight Foundation headquartered at the Canaries Astrophysics Institute in Spain. The Starlight Initiative is backed by UNESCO, the International Astronomical Union, and other international organizations. "We believe it is fair to give special consideration," wrote Foundation Managing Director Luis Martinez,

to "establishments whose owners have been pioneers in promoting a Starlight Destination in their area." Located in a particularly dark night-time zone of southwest Nova Scotia, Trout Point has developed astro-tourism offerings, including having a permanent astronomer on staff, over the past four years. This year the Lodge added a 16'x16' star gazing platform and new telescopes, including a solar telescope for daytime use. The Lodge lies adjacent to the vast Tobeatic Wilderness Area at the confluence of the Tusket and Napier Rivers. To be certified as a Starlight Hotel, Trout Point had to submit an extensive application and data on sky quality. Lodge proprietors Vaughan Perret and Charles Leary have spearheaded the effort by a local non-profit society to have the region surrounding Trout Point declared a Starlight Reserve andwe attach so much importance to building a network of establishments which are qualified and accredited as 'Starlight Rural Hotels and Houses', beginning with the most representative."

The president of the United States is mounting a concerted effort to shame a private employee and even get her fired — all because she criticized the president. The latest came from President Donald Trump’s Twitter account, in which he blamed ESPN host Jemele Hill for the network’s rating drops. That came after ESPN suspended Hill — apparently for tweets in which she criticized Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones for saying that he wouldn’t let any player “who disrespects the flag” on the field, forcing the team to take a stance against the NFL protests over racial injustice and police brutality. With Jemele Hill at the mike, it is no wonder ESPN ratings have "tanked," in fact, tanked so badly it is the talk of the industry! — Donald J.Virginia, causing chaos in the small city — and even a death after a neo-Nazi ran his car into a crowd of counterprotesters. After the protests, Trump suggested that “both sides” were equally to blame for the violence, drawing a false equivalency between white supremacists — one of whom, again, literally killed someone — and the anti-racism protesters. This is what Hill was referencing in her initial tweets. And her blunt language has apparently infuriated the president so much that he’s still tweeting about it weeks later. How ESPN and Jemele Hill became the White House’s latest targets As with many of Trump’s feuds, this goes back to Twitter. Last month, Hill argued in a series of tweets that Trump was a white supremacist who had surrounded himself with and empowered

October 9, 2017 Like many things on Twitter, though, Trump is embroiled in this. Trump has repeatedly spoken out against the NFL protests, recently praising Jones for his stance against the demonstrations. The protests are about police brutality and racial injustice, but Trump has mischaracterized them as disrespectful of the flag, military, and country because, as part of the demonstrations, players refuse to stand for the national anthem. Even as other major events, including North Korea and the hurricane in Puerto Rico, have gone on around him, Trump has continued tweeting against the NFL protests. That Trump is so loud about NFL protests over racial injustice yet was so ambivalent about white supremacist protests in Charlottesville only speaks to Hill’s original point: It sure looks like the president is atOne of the UK's best-known scientists, Professor James Lovelock, says only a catastrophe will prompt the world to tackle the threat of climate change. He says the global climate treaty, the Kyoto Protocol, is simply an attempt to appease a self-regulating Earth system. Professor Lovelock thinks the Earth's attempts to restore its equilibrium may eliminate civilisation and most humans. He wants a rapid end to the destruction of natural habitats, which he says are key to planetary climate and chemistry. We are at war with the Earth itself. We are Gaia's target now Professor James Lovelock Professor Lovelock won acclaim for developing the Gaia Hypothesis, which suggests the Earth functions as a single organism which maintains the conditions necessary for its survival.

Last June, Iranians marching silently were beaten with batons; political prisoners were rounded up and abused; and absurd and false accusations were leveled against the United States, Israel, and the West.

To Israelis, hailing Ms. Mughrabi as a heroine and a martyr is an act that glorifies terrorism. But, underscoring the chasm between Israeli and Palestinian perceptions, the Fatah representatives described Ms. Mughrabi as a courageous fighter who held a proud place in Palestinian history. Defiant, they insisted that they would not let Israel dictate the names of Palestinian streets and

because AIPAC can put 7,500 in a room? She says it is the shared values of democracy and freedom and common aspirations for our children and our children’s children. She says her defense of Israel is more than a policy issue but a “personal commitment that will never waver.” She continues in this vein, telling stories of her travels as well as a moving anecdote about a medic she met, who was subsequently killed. This strikes me as a personal accounting of her own attachment and relationship with Israel, a sort of personal defense of her own pro-Israel bona fides. Did the recent criticism sting? She continues now with her defense of Obama, reminding the group that she had vouched for him when the primary ended in 2008. Stonegovern for long without the vast center of the American electorate. Obama has now ceded that to his political opponents. John, the opponents are wasting no time with the legal challenges. In my e-mail box bright and early is a message from the Virginia attorney general (a conservative swept into office on a wave of anti-Obama sentiment): The Office of the Attorney General of Virginia will move forward with our lawsuit against the federal government and its unconstitutional overreach of its authority with the passage of the federal health care bill. We will file our complaint with the court as soon as the president signs it into law. With this law, the federal government will force citizens to buy health insurance, claiming it has the authority to do so because of

most far-reaching pieces of social legislation in our history. For President Obama to be able to have resurrected it in the midst of enormous public opposition and deep concerns among Democrats, especially in the aftermath of the Massachusetts Senate race in late January, is politically quite impressive. When he was being told to pare down his plan, Obama instead doubled down and, in terms of winning passage of his signature domestic initiative, he won. As a result, the media coverage will be overwhelmingly favorable to Obama and Democrats.

view of Iran’s rulers in 2003. They had every reason in the world to hate Saddam Hussein more than anyone else in the world. His army killed hundreds of thousands of Iranians in an eight-year war he started less than a year after Ayatollah Khomeini became Supreme Leader. (Israel, meanwhile, has never fought a war with Iran and hasn’t killed any Iranians.) Yet the United States earned no points whatsoever for taking out their most dangerous enemy and placing their Shia co-religionists in the saddle in Baghdad. There are, of course, millions of Arabs and Iranians who detest the Khomeinist-led resistance bloc and feel threatened by it, including about half of Palestinians. Most are less ideologically severe, and some have already made peace with Israel.

Here AFP Sport looks at five key questions ahead of the annual curtain raiser to the English top-flight season:community shield Pressure on Wenger As the rain lashed down on the Emirates Stadium and Arsene Wenger found himself confronted by a furious fan, it was easy to believe the clock had been turned back four months to a season the Arsenal manager would love to forget. In fact, it was a pre-season friendly against Benfica in July and the aforementioned Arsenal supporter keen to vent his frustrations on Wenger didn’t seem placated by his side’s 5-2 victory. Divisions run deep at the Emirates over Wenger’s lack of success in

his combination of poise and predatory finishing ignites his side’s title defence. Lacazette leads the line With the future of unsettled Gunners forward Alexis Sanchez still up in the air, Wenger needed to make a statement of intent and he did so by breaking Arsenal’s transfer record to sign France striker Alexandre Lacazette from Lyon for £52 million. Lacazette hit 37 goals in 45 games last season and has bagged at least 20 Ligue 1 goals in each of the last three years. The 26-year-old netted on his first appearance at the Emirates Stadium in pre-season, but Wenger admitted it might take a while for his new recruit to adapt to the unique demands of the Premier League. Conte eyes boost Frustrated by Chelsea’s failure to land his top transfer targets, Conteis in need of a restorative victory over Arsenal as he looks for signs his team are still hungry for success after winning the Premier League. Missing out on Lukaku, Leonardo Bonucci and Alex Sandro has put Conte in an anxious mood, judging by his prediction that he faces the most “difficult” season of his career. Manchester City, Manchester United and Liverpool have all spent big money on new signings. Conte has paid over £100 million on three players, but his squad, which faces the extra challenge of the Champions League this season, is painfully short of strength in depth now Costa is exiled and Eden Hazard and new recruit Tiemoue Bakayoko are injured. Three’s company A 3-0 defeat against Arsenal last season was the catalyst for Chelsea’s title triumph

as Conte responded to that setback by switching to a three-man defence. The tactical tinkering paid rich dividends for Chelsea, but Conte added Roma defender Antonio Rudiger to the mix in the close-season. Ironically, it was an identical change by Wenger that revived Arsenal’s fortunes in the closing weeks of last season, climaxing in an FA Cup final win over Chelsea. Conte has promised to stick with the same system, while Wenger has been experimenting with using midfielders Mohamed Elneny and Ainsley Maitland-Niles in his back three in pre-season. Analysing those areas will provide a fascinating insight into both managers’ plans for the new season.citizenship for young adults brought to the US illegally as children. This had consequences at the border, ICE and other US immigration officials say. After DACA was announced, “suddenly we had tens of thousands of kids getting thrown across the border,” said Chris Crane, the head of National ICE Council, a union that represents 7,600 ICE officers. Others argue economics contributed to the surge. By no coincidence, the ICE union and the Border Patrol union were among the few federal government agency unions to endorse Trump ahead of the 2016 election. Crane, a vocal critic of presidential immigration policies for years, said then that “America has been lied to about every aspect of immigration in the United States,” and only Trump can “put politics aside to fix the problem.” Trump’s

For Ocasio-Cortez and a growing number of Democrats, a key part of that wave is abolishing ICE.

Kirsten Gillibrand, the New Yorkborder patrol agent who was quietly named ICE’s new director on June 30.

Tensions on the Korean peninsula have eased in the past month, having run high for several weeks after the United Nations toughened sanctions against North Korea following its third nuclear test in February. In another sign of easing tensions, the North reopened a Red Cross hotline with South Korea on Friday. Sunday's talks will set the mood for a ministerial level meeting scheduled for next week. The two Koreas have not held talks since February 2011. Pyongyang

agreed on Saturday to the South's proposal to meet at the Panmunjom truce village, two days after it had proposed discussions to normalize commercial projects, including a shuttered joint industrial zone. In early April, North Korea withdrew its 53,000 workers at the Kaesong Industrial Zone and suspended operations. South Korea pulled out all of its workers from the zone in early May. After Pyongyang first proposed talks this week, Seoul responded by inviting the North to cabinet level talks on June 12 in Seoul as a way to discuss a range of issues including commercial projects and families split during the 1950-53 Korean War. The weekend talks come as Chinese President Xi Jinping and U.S. President Barack Obama have begun their summit meeting on Friday in California.

These products are the fastest growing sales sector of the entire cosmetics industry, and are widely marketed as being safe. But Cancer Prevention Coalition Chairman Dr. Samuel S. Epstein warns that altering the physical structure of skin with chemicals to look more youthful comes at a hidden price to the skin, and even more so to overall health. The term cosmeceutical, applied to anti-wrinkle and anti-aging creams, was first adopted by the cosmetics industry in 1984.

ON Wednesday 7th of January after evening prayers a loud noise was heard in the sky followed by the sighting of an intense large light heading from the west above the Al-Qasim region east of Saudi Arabia’s capital city Riyadh. Many locals had seen meteors prior to this but claimed this one did not fit the typical description at all: it was a blue green colour and was shooting out green lasers. One witness Khalid commented ‘No one has ever seen anything like it.

Martin Luther King Jr. called out, "We will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream." Fifty-six years later, a torrent of floodwater tore down part of a "segregation wall" in Arlington, Virginia. Ted Bloss, who lives next to the wall in the city's High View Park neighborhood, captured images Monday of high waters carrying away bricks from the wall originally built to divide white and black neighborhoods. "I've talked to people who've been here 50, 60, 70 years, and they all said nothing like this has ever happened here," Bloss said. The wall dates to the 1930s The "segregation wall" went up in segments in the 1930s to separate white-owned homes in High View Park

from homes in a neighborhood to the south, according to a booklet from the Arlington County Department of Community Planning, Housing and Development that explores African American history in the county. The patchwork of separate fences and walls eventually formed a continuous barrier between white and black portions of the city. After schools were integrated, parents petitioned to remove part of the wall in order to make it easier for kids to walk to school. But much of it remained. "The remnants of this wall symbolize Arlington's history of segregation," the department says. It was used to educate people about the past Bloss said that he and his neighbors, from both races, have mixed feelings about the destruction of the segregation wall. With portions removed to facilitate foot traffic and as history marched forward,the wall had become more of an educational tool than a racist barrier. Bloss said historical walking-tour groups often stopped to see the wall. It was a way to teach people about what Jim Crow racism looked like and felt like. The county erected a historical marker at one end of the wall, explaining to passersby why and when it had been constructed. Bloss has been talking to neighbors, and some have mentioned rebuilding the wall -- for education. "Opinions are split about what to do next," he said. "It was viewed as an important part of history to remember."

series, where 18 was the best return. In that series, Marcus Harris and Cameron Bancroft partnered Warner at the top, as all three struggled against the English quicks and seaming ball. But back at home against a Pakistan attack struggling to make the ball move, Warner and Burns showed their prowess at the top. The former was dominant on the front foot; he punished Pakistan through the covers every time they overpitched and pulled with power as his innings went on. In his first Test back on home soil since the ball-tampering affair, he scored more runs and faced more balls (265) than he did in the entire Ashes. He survived a life on 56, edging exciting debutant Naseem Shah behind, only for replays to show the quick had oversteppedand Warner was called back. He was also close to being run out on 93, making his crease by just centimetres to beat a Yasir Shah direct hit. Burns was a little more nervy early before finding his groove. He bottom-edged a cut shot off his first ball but it didn’t carry to wicketkeeper Muhammad Rizwan. But he grew with confidence as the day went on, hooking and driving Naseem and dominating spinner Iftikhar Ahmed, both down the ground and on the sweep. Eventually, a sweep brought about his downfall, gloving one back onto his own stumps from Yasir just three shy of his century. Regardless, Burns’ combination with Warner is believed to have been part of the reason for his recall. Friday’s partnership is their fourth century stand in 10

innings together, and they average more than 50 as a combination. At the Gabba, their record is even stronger, with their 620 runs combined in three innings at the ground the most productive of any pairing in history. Pakistan toiled away with their No 1 bowler Muhammad Abbas watching on from the sideline, controversially overlooked.

The color comes from Cambodia, where in the 12th century painters would use the color as a watercolor paint. Besides being used as a watercolor, the color has also been used as a varnish for wood. Gamboge as a color started to spread, and in the 17th century made its way to Europe, where it was first used in the English language in 1634. Source: Peter Zavislak. 8. Fallow Sounds like a word you’d hear out of someone with a heavy Southern accent. Maybe something like “Fallow me right over yonder.” Fortunately, fallow is a word. In fact,it is one of the oldest color names to ever exist in the English language. Though not a considered a “pretty” color by some, the pale brown is named after the color many would see when looking into fallow fields as well as the soil, which was often sandy. The word fallow, to express the color, was first recorded in 1000. It is said that the color is also known in South African and Indian cultures as Ravi brown. 7. Razzmatazz Not the liquor; nor the song, nor the television series, razzmatazz is red-pink color that was invented by Crayola in 1993, and was first found in the Big Box of 96. The color is said to be one very similar to rose, which is found directly in the middle

Blount, Pats run over Colts The 113-kg back had four touchdown runs and New England kept Andrew Luck from a second straight comeback victory, beating the Indianapolis Colts 43-22 on Saturday night. Blount scored on three 2-yard runs in the first half, then burst through the right side of the line and rambled 73 yards into the end zone in the second half, where he placed the ball gently on the ground made soggy by a game-long rain. He finished with 166 yards on 24 carries. On the next series, Luck threw his third interception and the Patriots capitalized with Stevan Ridley’s second touchdown run, a 1-yarder that finished the scoring with 11:12 left. The Patriots (13-4) will face the winner of the game Sunday between the Broncos and Chargers.

Seattle shut out the Saints in the first half, got Lynch’s first 100-yard game since Week 10 of the regular season and received a spark from the brief return of Percy Harvin before he left with a concussion. Lynch scored on a 15-yard run in the first half and capped the victory with a 31-yard scoring run with 2:40 left.

The Saskatchewan Roughriders have announced international quarterback Darian Durant has agreed to a new contract for the 2016 season. As per team policy, financial details of the contract were not released. Durant is set to enter his 11th season with the Green and White after originally signing with the team as a free agent in 2006. The 33-year-old University of North Carolina product will enter 2016 among the franchise leaders in all statistical passing categories. His 24,668 passing yards and 135 touchdowns each rank third among the Riders all-time leaders – while also putting him inside the top 25 all-time CFL leaders in both categories. Through 98 career starts, Durant has collected 54 wins, 43 losses and one tie while being named a West Division All-Star in 2009 and 2013. Hedoor barred their entry. I might have asked, "Why had the landlord not given my grandparents more time to clear their debt?" But I did not ask. The thought of the furniture left out in the front yard made a deep impression on my mind. It was the image of a home turned inside out, its intimacy smashed, its innards spewed. How terrible they must have looked, those useless lamps and long bare table legs and the embarrassing tea-colored letters in a half-open desk drawer. The scene felt so vivid that it made my eyes smart. My father was born in 1954, the year that followed Queen Elizabeth's coronation. My grandparents' expulsion from their home happened ten years later—in the midst of the swinging sixties, the decade of "peace and

A shooting near Washington, DC that injured at least five would have been a “massacre” if not for the Capitol Police, a senator who witnessed the incident has claimed. Republican Senator Rand Paul was participating in a routine congressional baseball team practise in a Washington, DC suburb when he heard a single, isolated shot. The Senator, who was sitting in the batting cage, said he initially thought little of it. Over the next several minutes, however, Mr Paul said he saw and heard approximately 50 to 60 more shots fired across the field. A lone gunman had descended on the practise, carrying what appeared to be a semi-automatic rifle. Huddled in the batting cage, Mr Paul said he noticed Senate Majority Whip Steve Scalise had been shot. The senator said Mr Scalise,who had been playing second base, was “shot but moving” and "trying to drag himself through the dirt out into the outfield”. Mr Scalise was later removed from the field and is in stable condition at George Washington University hospital.

Authorities are looking for a Delaware Water Gap man on whose computer child pornography allegedly was found last week. Detectives with the Monroe County District Attorney's Office said James Vincent Lamb, 54, is aware of the allegations and that he may have fled the area to avoid arrest. An affidavit gives the following account: Lamb owned and had exclusive use of a Compaq

Presario CQ60 laptop computer. His wife on Nov. 13 used the laptop, intending to review his computer usage, and found photos of children, some as young as 8, engaged in prohibited sexual acts. Lamb's wife contacted and brought the laptop to county detectives, who obtained a search warrant and found 86 photos and one video showing child porn. The files were contained within several different directories, including the Yahoo! Instant Messenger PhotoSharing cache, and the “Pictures” folder for the default and public users. The PhotoSharing cache is a folder created automatically by the Yahoo! Instant Messenger software upon receiving a picture sent by another user through that software.

a claim]"). 17 In Simpson, the gasoline retailers assumed virtually all the obligations of ownership of the gasoline in their possession, including the need to insure the gasoline against losses. 377 U.S. at 14, 84 S.Ct. 1051. Under the terms of the consignment agreement, the oil company retained legal title to the gasoline until it was sold, but almost none of the obligations associated with such title. Id. The bald legal title was the only evidence of an "agency" relationship between the parties; all other factors pointed to the conclusion that the gasoline was actually sold to the retailer. It was on the basis of its retention of legal title that the oil company asserted its power to determine the retail price of the gasoline and to terminate its contractThe JPML transferred Ceh to the Southern District of Florida by order filed March 5, 2003 for coordinated or consolidated proceedings.

Reading about it and watching a few minutes online did, indeed, make me miss the brief period of footlights and greasepaint from my own youth. I would have loved to have been involved in anything this interesting for a production in high school, and while we didn't stick to kiddie-stuff, I was often disappointed we weren't tackling material I might have had more interest in actually performing. It is true that I, myself, tried my hand at acting in high school. Nothing as elaborate as bringing in a popular indie rock star, but we did several shows a year. We had auditions and rehearsals before school ever started, and usually ran two shows before the winter break, tucked a musical in there, had a spring show and maybe another.LanguageCert, along with Cursos Internacionales de la Universidad de Salamanca, were extremely excited to join the XXVIII ASELE Congress, which was held in Tarragona, Spain, on 6-9 September 2017.

The economics of pharmaceutical supply in Tanzania. This paper analyzes the patterns of purchasing, distribution, and utilization of pharmaceuticals currently found in Tanzania, an underdeveloped country in Africa. Like other nations in the Third World, Tanzania offers the prospect of a rapidly expanding market for the multinational pharmaceutical industry. However, this market has been to a large extent developed by the intense promotional activities of the drug companies themselves. In addition to normal marketing methods, these companies indulge in techniques which would be neither acceptable nor legal in developed countries. As a result, expensive proprietary drugs are overpurchased and overprescribed, mainly in the large urban hospitals, with consequent deprivation of other health care facilities, particularly those for the rural peasants who form the majority of the population. The activitiesbefore herself. Every time during a meal, she would always serve others before she began eating. Her smile and selflessness earned the hearts of many friends from across the globe. However, as of April 27th, the comforting light radiating from within her had to suddenly be put out.At the beginning of April, she went in for an MRI checkup when the doctors discovered multiple tumors and a life-threatening sized tumor on the surface of her brain. She was suddenly admitted and by the next day, she had to undergo brain surgery. At the time, I was still unaware of her past with cancer. As you may expect, the news was incredibly overwhelming and stressful for me since I am only 17 and my father passed away when I

was 9. In a matter of a day, I had to suddenly take on the role of becoming my mom's caretaker as well as balance the stress as a senior in high school.After the surgery, my mother's recovery was quite quick and she was almost immediately discharged. However, after a week, I noticed her health had dropped dramatically. She got weaker by the day and soon had bits of confusion. It got to the point where she even forgot how to eat or sit up on her own so I rushed her back the ER. The doctors told me she had a lot of swelling from the residual tumors in her brain and they gave her steroids to reduce the swelling. Her symptoms did get slightly better butI felt as though she was still not ready to be sent home. The hospital she stayed at said from a medical standpoint that she was ready despite my objections to their decision. By the next morning, she fell into a deep coma and was pronounced brain dead the following day.The rest of my family and I had to rush and gather all her friends and family to see her for the last time. At this moment, I am in utter shock and pain from everything that happened in the course of a month. My heart is torn at how quickly my mom has left the world but I wish that with your donations, my family and I could organize a funeral beautiful enough to honor the angel

advocates for Israel. So much for justice and compassion. I disapprove of Giraldi’s broadbrush prejudicial attack, but the Times is still evading the criticism that Walt and Mearsheimer issued 11 years ago, thanks to the internet, and that continues to haunt the organized Jewish community: To what extent was the Iraq war pushed by neoconservative Jews who were concerned about Israel’s security. Joe Klein raised the Jewish neoconservative issue years ago and was pilloried for doing so: The fact that a great many Jewish neoconservatives–people like Joe Lieberman and the crowd over at Commentary–plumped for this war, and now for an even more foolish assault on Iran, raised the question of pided loyalties: using U.S. military power, U.S. lives and money, to make the world safe for Israel. And yes: American Jews wereMSNBC's Martin Bashir pulled out the Book of Mormon to condemn Mitt Romney on Thursday, arguing that the GOP candidate is on his way to hell. Bashir alleged that Romney has lied three times in recent days, speaking about Ted Nugent's endorsement, unemployment under President Obama and a "vast left-wing conspiracy" in the media. "It doesn’t matter how many times he hears the truth, Mitt Romney prefers to tell lies," Bashir blasted. He repeatedly referred to Romney as "Mitt the Mendacious." Then, he wondered how Romney would be punished for lying, and whipped out the religious text of Romney's faith. “In Section 63, in verse 17 of the Doctrine and Covenants of the Mormon Church we find this: ‘All liars, and whosoever loveth and and maketh a lie, and the whoremonger, and

He wanted to do something that would make a difference in the world. But what exactly would that be. He didn’t know. And then, he came across this book. Evan: I read a book by a guy named Felix Rohatyn, one of the lions of Wall Street. The guy who saved New York City from bankruptcy back in the 70s. He wrote this book called Bold Endeavors and the book was a call for the US to set up an infrastructure bank. And his idea was that only government was big enough to really do infrastructure, at scale, and thatin the classroom. Alex: So, right now in America what percentage of schools have access to broadband Internet. Evan: About 88 percent of schools and roughly 88 percent of the 46 million students in public school districts have the key components of good Internet access. Alex: And when we started, when you started this company how many students had access to broadband. Evan: In 2013 only 4 million students had access to high speed broadband in their classrooms and that was less than 10 percent of the 46 million public school students in the country. Alex: We went from 4 million students having access to 40. And that's that's almost 90 percent of students in America now. And it's basically all because of you. Evan: Well I wouldn't say it's all because of me. Alex:

relied, of course, on the absurdly idealistic notion that once a small number of elites had taken over all power in the name of the people, they'd voluntarily cede it.) One of the points of 1984, though, is the danger of "perpetual war for perpetual peace" -- essentially, Oceania and Eurasia in the novel were in a state of war that had no obvious ending condition, a Cold War with actual battles. By maintaining a "war footing" in perpetuity, Big Brother had the pretext for reducing civil liberties, encouraging nationalism (as distinct from patriotism), concentrating power, stifling dissent -- the dystopia in the book is taking all these things, none of which are intrinsically unthinkable in times of war, and taking them to their extreme.

The 69-year-old will work alongside head coach Darren Wassall, who is keen to bring in someone with experience to help their Championship promotion push. The Rams are six points adrift of an automatic promotion place. Chief executive Sam Rush told BBC Radio Derby: "Darren felt he needed some more senior coaching support, someone who has been there and done it." Derby sacked head coach Paul Clement last month and appointed Wassall until the end of the season. Wassall replaced Clement with the Rams just five points off top spot in the table, but they

have lost three of his seven games in charge. Saturday's 3-3 draw against Rotherham - after conceding three goals in the final seven minutes - means Derby are now 13 points behind leaders Burnley and have played a game more than second-placed Middlesbrough. Former West Ham, Portsmouth and Southampton boss Redknapp has been out of work since leaving QPR in January 2015. Rush said talks with Redknapp would continue on Monday evening. He added: "Harry came to the training ground and met Darren and myself. We had a discussion and are looking at bringing him in in an advisory role. "It was Darren's idea. It is a short-term coaching role to provide support for the rest of the season. It is a defined time for the next eight weeks or so." Darren Wassall made98 league appearances for Derby County as a player Former West Ham winger Redknapp began his managerial career with Bournemouth in 1983. He spent nine years with the Cherries and then seven years with the Hammers from 1994. Since then, he has twice managed Portsmouth, winning the FA Cup in 2008, and has also been in charge at Southampton, Spurs and most recently QPR. He guided Tottenham into Champions League for the first time. Redknapp was strongly tipped to take over as England manager following Fabio Capello's departure after Euro 2012, but the Football Association chose Roy Hodgson.

UNITED NATIONS, March 26 (UPI) -- Claims for asylum, prompted by events in Syria and Iraq, increased by 45 percent in 2014, the United Nations refugee agency reported Thursday. The United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) report, "Asylum Trends 2014," indicated 866,000 applications for asylum were filed in industrialized countries, up from 596,000 in 2013. Germany had the most with 173,000, followed by the United States, Turkey, Sweden and Italy. The top five countries received 60 percent of the world's claims, and the 150,000 applications from Syria accounted for one-fifth of all claims. The asylum claims in the United States were mostly from Mexico and Central America. The figures are the highest since 1992, when the Bosnian conflict motivated refugee requests for asylum. "Our response has to be justas generous now as it was then – providing access to asylum, resettlement opportunities and other forms of protection for the people fleeing these terrible conflicts," said UNCHR Commissioner António Guterres. "In the 1990s, the Balkan wars created hundreds of thousands of refugees and asylum-seekers. Many of them found refuge in industrialized countries in Europe, North America and elsewhere. Today, the surge in armed conflicts around the world presents us with similar challenges, in particular the dramatic situation in Syria." The report also noted the number of Ukrainian citizens seeking asylum increased from 1,400 in 2013 to 15,700 in 2014.

year significantly affected fungal diversity and richness but not the phylogenetic diversity. These results are only partly in line with our first hypothesis that fungal endophyte diversity and community composition differ among the investigated grass species and between the sampling years. We further observed grass species-specific responses of fungal endophytes towards management regimes, which supports our second hypothesis. However, the interaction of grass species and management practices explained only 36% and 34% of the variance in the dataset in 2010 and 2011, respectively, indicating that other factors than those investigated are important drivers of fungal endophyte communities in the grass species analysed in this study. Contrary to our third hypothesis that putative life strategies of fungal endophytes are determined by grass species and management practices, grass species hadthree transactions as to which there is shown probable liability on the part of Williams and other corporate officers on account of such dealings in the amounts of $418,000, $289,000 and $3,425,000 respectively. The petition filed by the committee of preferred stockholders and supported by the Reeve Committee points out many other transactions as to which liability on the part of Williams and other officers and directors is asserted either on account of dealings had with the corporation or on account of losses sustained as a result of manipulations in which they were engaged. The Securities and Exchange Commission points out eight transactions, in addition to three reported by the trustees, which it says should be thoroughly investigated. It appears that the investigation made by the trustees as the

basis of their report was confined to an examination of the debtor corporation's books with the aid of a former employee of debtor, who had acted as proxy for Williams and had represented his interests at corporate meetings, to an examination not under oath of some of its former officers and directors, and to a study of certain evidence with respect to its dealings taken by the Securities and Exchange Commission as a basis for remedial legislation. There was no examination of the books of affiliated corporations with which dealings had been had by debtor, nor was there any examination of Williams or other officers of the corporation under oath for the purpose of establishing a basis of liability. There was not even a demand on Williams thaton him and he becomes ordinary," Gruden said. "We will take the bad with the good and hopefully great comes out of it." Rookie running back Giovani Bernard has shown an early ability to produce highlight-level plays. Mike Ehrmann/Getty Images Through nine games, Bernard has been pretty great for the Bengals. A fantasy football hero, the yard-piling, touchdown-gaining first-year back has put countless smiles on the faces of general managers of fictitious Internet teams. A big-play threat who already has three edge-of-your-seat type scores, Bernard has left many a Bengals fan's jaw dropped after his more memorable runs this season. It's all been enough for people from here to South Florida to Chapel Hill, N.C., to request he be given the ball more and more and more. They shouldn't hold their breath, though. "People

thing is when your number is called to take advantage of it and that's the one thing Gio has done every time his number has been called so far." As much as Bernard wanted to celebrate his Barry Sanders-esque touchdown run that got the Bengals back in last week's game, he couldn't. The play may have been a big one, but it still was part of a loss. There weren't the "oohs" and "ahhs" in the running backs' meeting room earlier this week that there may have been had the result on the scoreboard been reversed. "The biggest thing for a running back is getting into the end zone, no matter how you have to do it," Bernard said.

The televised contest between Tim Kaine and Mike Pence was quickly forgotten as the presidential nominees aimed fire at each other on the campaign trail The vice-presidential debate left few traces on Wednesday as Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton returned to center stage. The televised contest between Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia and Indiana governor Mike Pence was quickly forgotten as Trump and Clinton aimed fire on each other. Tuesday night’s debate, which had the lowest ratings of any such matchup since Dick Cheney and Joe Lieberman’s encounter in 2000, focused entirely on the top of the ticket, and that continued as memories quickly faded of Pence and Kaine’s face-off in Farmville, Virginia.

moved forward along with the pressing rod 28 so that the sealing material or the like filled in the tubular bag is extruded from the nozzle 98. This conventional type of the extruding gun is disclosed, for instance, in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication Nos. 4-279458, 5-301064, etc. This conventional extruding gun 10a for the tubular bag is used in the following manner. First of all, the nozzle 98 is removed from the cylinder 16a. The tubular bag is inserted into the cylinder 16a through the leading end portion of the cylinder 16a in a state that the extruding rod 28 is pulled rearward of the main body portion. After the leading end of the tubular bag is opened with scissors or the like, the nozzle 98 is mounted onthe cylinder 16a. The setting of the tubular bag to the extruding gun 10a is completed in this manner. With the operation of the lever 22 of the main body portion 24, the extruding rod 28 is moved forward so that the pressing plate 42 mounted on the leading end of the extruding rod 28 presses the sealing material or the like together with the tubular bag, whereby the sealing material or the like filled in the tubular bag is extruded from the nozzle 98. This extruding gun 10a requires the installation of the tubular cylinder 16a, and thus has a disadvantage of an increased cost in comparison with an extruding gun described later in which a holding base is installed. Further, in this extruding gun 10a, when the extruding

the other end and thus all of the sealing material or the like filled therein is discharged and used up, the empty container is discarded as it is. In a case of the tubular bag, if all of the sealing material or the like filled therein is discharged, the tubular bag is in a squashed state, and then discarded in this state. Upon comparing the tubular bag with the cartridge container, the manufacturing cost of the tubular bag is lower than that of the cartridge container, and with respect to waste disposal, the cartridge container is bulky, whereas the tubular bag is convenient from the viewpoints of transportation and processing since the tubular bag is compactly squashed. The environmental contamination due to discarded wastes is a current world-wide problem.The amount of the discarded wastes of the tubular bags is remarkably smaller than that of the cartridge container, and thus the tubular bag is preferable from this point. As noted above, the tubular bag is inexpensive, and advantageous from the viewpoint of the disposal thereof in comparison with the cartridge container, but the problem resides in that the tubular bag requires a special type of the extruding gun for extruding the contents from the tubular bag. In view of the above-noted problems, the present applicant already proposed an extruding mechanism for a tubular bag and a method of extruding contents in a tubular bag, which enable the effective use of the tubular bag with a usual extruding gun for a cartridge container instead of the special type of the

body 83 is slidably inserted is first prepared at the rear end opening portion of the cylinder body 82. In a state where the rear end of the cylinder body 82 is placed on the holding base 16 of the extruding gun 10, a tubular bag F is inserted into the inside of the cylinder body 82 through the front end opening portion of the cylinder body 83, and the leading end portion of the tubular bag F is cut and opened with scissors or the like. In general, in this opening work, the leading end caulking portion K, which is caulked with the use of a caulking member such as an aluminum wire or the like, remains attached to the leading end from the viewpoints of avoidingmechanism for the tubular bag, when the cylindrical member is set on the holding base of the extruding gun, the cylindrical member is necessarily set on the holding base in a state where the cylindrical member is brought into contact with the inner surface of a head adapter fixed to the stationary holding plate. In order to facilitate the insertion and attachment of the cylindrical member, a contact member such as an annular flange is generally provided on the inner surface of the head adapter. The presence of this type of the annular flange or the like requires the cylindrical member to be inserted into and attached to the contact member such as the annular flange in a state where it is held in parallel with the holding

base as much as possible, and from a state in which it is spaced from the contact member such as the annular flange. Therefore, the operation of inserting the cylindrical member into the contact member such as the annular flange while setting the cylindrical member in the horizontal state as much as possible is troublesome. Further, the length of the holding member of the extruding gun must be set to be considerably longer than the length of the cylindrical member and thus the cost of the material is inevitably increased, and the extruding gun is inconvenient in handling. Taking the above-noted problems into consideration, the present applicant proposed a novel extruding mechanism for a tubular bag, wherein the inner surface of the head adapter is turned obliquely upward, sonew proposal as the present patent application. A first object of the present invention is to provide an extruding mechanism for a tubular bag and a method of extruding contents of a tubular bag, wherein a sealing material or the like is extruded and discharged from a tubular bag with the use of an extruding gun for a cartridge container so that it becomes unnecessary to additionally purchase an extruding gun for the tubular bag if the extruding gun for the cartridge container is possessed, it becomes possible to continuously use a cylindrical member made up of a cylinder body and a piston body so that it is sufficient to discard only the used up tubular bag in the same manner as the extruding gun for the tubular bag,

surface of a head adapter can be turned obliquely upward to make it remarkably easy to insert and attach a cylindrical member to the inner surface of the head adapter and set the cylindrical member on a holding base as well as to make it possible to set the length of the holding base close to the length of the cylindrical member to save the material cost and manufacture the extruding gun with the entire length shortened to facilitate the handling thereof, and by which the biting of the film of the tubular bag is effectively prevented to make it possible to efficiently use the tubular bag, and the narrowing and the clogging of the flow path of a through discharge passage by a caulking portion of theat one focus of an elliptical trough and the painted surface at the other focus, with flat reflectors at the ends of the trough. This type of trough reflector produces an uneven light distribution along the painted surface beneath the length of the lamp. Especially there is a lower intensity at the ends of the illuminated painted surface. This is a disadvantage because, for instance, in order to produce the intensity needed at the ends, the intensity at the center of the illuminated painted surface must be higher than necessary. A second disadvantage arises because the flat ends of the elliptical trough reflectors both trap a significant fraction of the light between the flat ends and scatters the remaining incident light, with only a small fraction contributing to the

as of today, the LS-218 is the big daddy of them all. If I was amazed by the performance of the Zero SR, just imagine what this Lightning bike could do with three times the horsepower and two-thirds more torque. The fact that it was nearly 17 hours away from me on an aeroplane was immaterial; Mohammed would come to the mountain. Even once I landed in the USA, it was difficult to line up a time to chat with Richard Hatfield, Lightning's founder and CEO. The company is small at the moment, there's only 10 employees in its San Carlos factory space a few blocks down from where Elon Musk started Tesla. So Hatfield is fairly hands-on with production even as he runs the business and Lightning's racingprogram. I was rapt and relieved when he and his wife Jojo agreed to sacrifice their Sunday afternoon to show me around the facility, sit down for an interview and throw me the keys for a ride on the LS-218.

The bike's designer Glynn Kerr is known as well for his design critique columns as he is for actually designing motorcycles, so it's fantastic to watch him walk the walk with a totally new brand and blank slate. It's a stunner. The bike's hand-wrapped carbon fiber bodywork shimmers in metallic blue and silver, sleek lines running back from its eight projector headlights, over the broad

As a part of the liquidation process, the trustee filed a complaint on November 8, 1982, to sell the assets of H & W1. The trustee retained the services of an appraiser and appointed Rosen & Company as auctioneer for the sale of the personal property of H & W1. At an auction held on December 14, 1982, PSI of South Carolina made a bid of $25,000. The auctioneer reported this to the trustee who, in turn, reported to the court that the tangible assets of H & W1 were sold for $25,000, but that no bids

the auction sale. The sale was conducted in a room where the assets were stored, which also was the same building that housed assets of Progress Corporation. After the H & W1 sale, the auctioneer, Stanley Rosen, went on to conduct the sale of the Progress Corporation assets. After the sales, Rosen or someone from his office notified the Trustee of the results of the sales. The Trustee based his report to the Court on this oral report received from Rosen's Office. The usual policy is to note that there was no bid for good will and trade name since these are often sold separately or abandoned. The initial report from Rosen's office to the Trustee usually is made telephonically; a& W1, which was conducted in another area of the same premises by the same auction company. At the Progress Corporation auction the assets were first offered in bulk. Then the trade name was offered. There were no bids for these items so the assets were sold piecemeal. The Progress Corporation assets sale took three to four hours. (Id.). 34 The auctioneer, Rosen, testified that his usual procedure was for him or his office to report the results of an auction telephonically to the Trustee, probably late the same afternoon. The telephonic report on the H & W1 sale indicated that there were no bids for the good will and trade name of the Debtor. A written report ensued on the same date

By Naomi Wolf The opinions expressed are her own. With the arrest of Dominique Strauss-Kahn, then Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund, New York City has abruptly become the scene of two very different official approaches to investigating sex-crime cases, one traditional and one new. The new approach so far appears to be reserved for Strauss-Kahn alone. Consider the first case: the ongoing trial of two police officers, Kenneth Moreno and Franklin Mata, charged in the rape of a 27-year-old Manhattan woman. She was drunk, and, after helping her to enter her apartment, Moreno and Mata allegedly made a false emergency call so that they could return to her. At that point, the woman says, she woke periodically out of her intoxicated state to find herself being raped, face down,strip-searched daily. Their entire case has followed the usual timetable of many months, as evidence was gathered, testimony compiled and arguments made. Then there is the Strauss-Kahn approach. After a chambermaid reportedly told her supervisor at the elegant Sofitel hotel that she had been sexually assaulted, the suspect was immediately tracked down, escorted off a plane just before its departure, and arrested. High-ranking detectives, not lowly officers, were dispatched to the crime scene. The DNA evidence was sequenced within hours, not the normal eight or nine days. By the end of the day’s news cycle, New York City police spokespeople had made uncharacteristic and shockingly premature statements supporting the credibility of the victim’s narrative — before an investigation was complete. The accused was handcuffed and escorted before television cameras —

A Million Miles to Earth: USC Instruments Find a Place in the Sun by Eric Mankin, courtesy of USC News Service A USC-designed and -built instrument installed in a solar observatory space vehicle is giving scientists long-sought, accurate values for a key component in the Earth's energy diet. The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), launched Dec. 2, 1995, contains a sophisticated package designed to measure the flux of extreme ultraviolet light (EUV) and X-rays produced by the sun, as well as energetic particles. A schematic of SOHO's "halo orbit." The orbit is designed to allow SOHO to observe the sun continuously, without ever passing into the Earth's shadow. SOHO's unique, stable observation position -- 1 million miles from Earth-sun line at a "Lagrange point" where the pulls of the Earth and sun balance -- allows uninterrupted solar observations. "We have observed a27-day modulation of the solar flux associated with the rotation period of the sun," said solar astronomer Darrell L. Judge, under whose direction one of the key solar EUV-monitoring instruments on the spacecraft, the CELIAS/SEM, was built. "Such variability is only observable through continuous monitoring of the sun, such as SOHO provides." The instruments's name is an acronym for Charge, Element and Isotope Analysis System/ Solar Extreme-ultraviolet Monitor. The EUV spectrum is blocked by the Earth's atmosphere, making ground-based measurements impossible. Scientists have previously measured the flux of this radiation either by suborbital rockets rising briefly above the atmosphere, or by satellites that pass behind the Earth and thus out of view of the sun for part of their orbits. "SOHO permits the accumulation of an around-the-clock database over an extended period of time," impossible with the earlier platforms, Judge noted. The CELIAS/SEM, first

absorption in the upper atmosphere "produces heating, ionization, and excitation of atomic and molecular species, thus leading to complex chemical and transport processes in the affected atmospheric regions," according to a report on the experiment presented in June, 1996, at a solar workshop. A complete paper on the results will appear soon in the Journal of Solar Physics. Scientists have attempted to model both planetary and solar atmosphere processes, but definitive tests of the models depend on more accurate measurements of the EUV flux than have so far been available. The SOHO project is being carried out by the European Space Agency (ESA) and the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) as a cooperative effort. Other institutions involved in the CELIAS/SEM observations on board the SOHO spacecraft include the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics, Max Planck Institute for Aeronomy, theBraunschweig Technical University and the Physikalish-Technishe Bundesanstalt, all of Germany; the University of Bern, Switzerland; University of New Hampshire; University of Maryland; University of Arizona; JPL; the Institute for Space Physics in Moscow; and the Physics Laboratory of the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Maryland.

weeks of unexplained murders, the ominous unknown killer is still on the rise. After little evidence has been found, a young boy states that he survived one of the killer's attacks and bravely tells his story."I had a bad dream and I woke up in the middle of the night," says the boy, "I saw that for some reason the window was open, even though I remember it being closed before I went to bed. I got up and shut it once more. Afterwards, I simply crawled under my covers and tried to get back to sleep. That's when I had a strange feeling, like someone was watching me. I looked up, and nearly jumped out of my bed. There, in the little ray of light, illuminating fromand plopped down on his bed. He sat there looking at his ceiling when suddenly, he got a weird feeling. Not so much a pain, but... a weird feeling. He dismissed it as just some random feeling. He heard his mother call him down to get his stuff, and he walked down to get it.The next day, Jeff walked down stairs to get breakfast and got ready for school. As he sat there, eating his breakfast, he once again got that feeling. This time it was stronger. It gave him a slight tugging pain, but he once again dismissed it. As he and Liu finished breakfast, they walked down to the bus stop. They sat there waiting for the bus, and then, all of a sudden, some kid

on a skateboard jumped over them, only inches above their laps. They both jumped back in surprise. "Hey, what the hell?"The kid landed and turned back to them. He kicked his skate board up and caught it with his hands. The kid seems to be about twelve; one year younger than Jeff. He wears a Aeropostale shirt and ripped blue jeans."Well, well, well. It looks like we got some new meat." Suddenly, two other kids appeared. One was super skinny and the other was huge. "Well, since you're new here, I'd like to introduce ourselves, over there is Keith." Jeff and Liu looked over to the skinny kid. He had a dopey face that you would expect a sidekick to have. "And he's Troy." They looked over atdown. Jeff ignored him and walked up to the kid."Listen here you little punk, give back my bro's wallet or else." Randy put the wallet in his pocket and pulled out his own knife."Oh? And what will you do?" Just as he finished the sentence, Jeff popped the kid in the nose. As Randy reached for his face, Jeff grabbed the kid's wrist and broke it. Randy screamed and Jeff grabbed the knife from his hand. Troy and Keith rushed Jeff, but Jeff was too quick. He threw Randy to the ground. Keith lashed out at him, but Jeff ducked and stabbed him in the arm. Keith dropped his knife and fell to the ground screaming. Troy rushd him too, but Jeff didn't even need the knife. He

just punched Troy straight in the stomach and Troy went down. As he fell, he puked all over. Liu could do nothing but look in amazement at Jeff."Jeff how'd you?" that was all he said. They saw the bus coming and knew they'd be blamed for the whole thing. So they started running as fast as they could. As they ran, they looked back and saw the bus driver rushing over to Randy and the others. As Jeff and Liu made it to school, they didn't dare tell what happened. All they did was sit and listen. Liu just thought of that as his brother beating up a few kids, but Jeff knew it was more. It was something, scary. As he got that feeling he felt howpowerful it was, the urge to just, hurt someone. He didn't like how it sounded, but he couldn't help feeling happy. He felt that strange feeling go away, and stay away for the entire day of school. Even as he walked home due to the whole thing near the bus stop, and how now he probably wouldn't be taking the bus anymore, he felt happy. When he got home his parents asked him how his day was, and he said, in a somewhat ominous voice, "It was a wonderful day." Next morning, he heard a knock at his front door. He walked down to find two police officers at the door, his mother looking back at him with an angry look."Jeff, these officers tell me that you attacked

it, since it was him who beat up all the kids."Sir, it...it was me. I was the one who beat up the kids. Liu tried to hold me back, but he couldn't stop me." The cop looked at his partner and they both nod."Well kid, looks like a year in Juvy...""Wait!" says Liu. They all looked up to see him holding a knife. The officers pulled their guns and locked them on Liu."It was me, I beat up those little punks. Have the marks to prove it." He lifted up his sleeves to reveal cuts and bruises, as if he was in a struggle."Son, just put the knife down," said the officer. Liu held up the knife and dropped it to the ground. He put his hands upwalked his father inside to break the bad news to him as Jeff wept in the driveway. After an hour or so Jeff walked back in to the house, seeing that his parents were both shocked, sad, and disappointed. He couldn't look at them. He couldn't see how they thought of Liu when it was his fault. He just went to sleep, trying to get the whole thing off his mind. Two days went by, with no word from Liu at JDC. No friends to hang out with. Nothing but sadness and guilt. That is until Saturday, when Jeff is woke up by his mother, with a happy, sunshiny face."Jeff, it's the day." she said as she opened up the curtains and let light flood into his room."What,

what's today?" asked Jeff as he stirs awake."Why, it's Billy's party." He was now fully awake."Mom, you're joking, right? You don't expect me to go to some kid's party after..." There was a long pause."Jeff, we both know what happened. I think this party could be the thing that brightens up the past days. Now, get dressed." Jeff's mother walked out of the room and downstairs to get ready herself. He fought himself to get up. He picked out a random shirt and pair of jeans and walked down stairs. He saw his mother and father all dressed up; his mother in a dress and his father in a suit. He thought, why they would ever wear such fancy clothes to a kid's party?"Son, is that all yourFinally he found a white hoodie and put it on."You're wearing that?" they both said. His mother looked at her watch. "Oh, no time to change. Let's just go." She said as she herded Jeff and his father out the door. They crossed the street over to Barbara and Billy's house. They knocked on the door and at it appeared that Barbara, just like his parents, way over-dressed. As they walked inside all Jeff could see were adults, no kids."The kids are out in the yard. Jeff, how about you go and meet some of them?" said Barbara.Jeff walked outside to a yard full of kids. They were running around in weird cowboy costumes and shooting each other with plastic guns. He might as well be standing in

a Toys R Us. Suddenly a kid came up to him and handed him a toy gun and hat."Hey. Wanna pway?" he said."Ah, no kid. I'm way too old for this stuff." The kid looked at him with that weird puppydog face."Pwease?" said the kid. "Fine," said Jeff. He put on the hat and started to pretend shoot at the kids. At first he thought it was totally ridiculous, but then he started to actually have fun. It might not have been super cool, but it was the first time he had done something that took his mind off of Liu. So he played with the kids for a while, until he heard a noise. A weird rolling noise. Then it hit him. Randy, Troy, and Keith allrose to their feet. Kids were screaming and parents were running out of the house. Troy and Keith both pulled guns out of their pockets."No one interrupts or guts will fly!" they said. Randy pulled a knife on Jeff and stabbed it into his shoulder.Jeff screamed and fell to his knees. Randy started kicking him in the face. After three kicks Jeff grabs his foot and twists it, causing Randy to fall to the ground. Jeff stood up and walked towards the back door. Troy grabbed him."Need some help?" He picks Jeff up by the back of the collar and throws him through the patio door. As Jeff tries to stand he is kicked down to the ground. Randy repeatedly starts kicking Jeff, until he starts to cough

Randy as he runs at Jeff. That's when it happens. Something inside Jeff snaps. His psyche is destroyed, all rational thinking is gone, all he can do, is kill. He grabs Randy and pile drives him to the ground. He gets on top of him and punches him straight in the heart. The punch causes Randy's heart to stop. As Randy gasps for breath. Jeff hammers down on him. Punch after punch, blood gushes from Randy's body, until he takes one final breath, and dies.Everyone is looking at Jeff now. The parents, the crying kids, even Troy and Keith. Although they easily break from their gaze and point their guns at Jeff. Jeff see's the guns trained on him and runs for the stairs. As he runs Troyand Keith let out fire on him, each shot missing. Jeff runs up the stairs. He hears Troy and Keith follow up behind. As they let out their final rounds of bullets Jeff ducks into the bathroom. He grabs the towel rack and rips it off the wall. Troy and Keith race in, knives ready.Troy swings his knife at Jeff, who backs away and bangs the towel rack into Troy's face. Troy goes down hard and now all that's left is Keith. He is more agile than Troy though, and ducks when Jeff swings the towel rack. He dropped the knife and grabbed Jeff by the neck. He pushed him into the wall. A thing of bleach fell down on top of him from the top shelf. It

burnt both of them and they both started to scream. Jeff wiped his eyes as best as he could. He pulled back the towel rack and swung it straight into Keith's head. As he lay there, bleeding to death, he let out an ominous smile."What's so funny?" asked Jeff. Keith pulled out a lighter and switched it on. "What's funny," he said, "Is that you're covered in bleach and alcohol." Jeff's eyes widened as Keith threw the lighter at him. As soon as the flame made contact with him, the flames ignited the alcohol in the vodka. While the alcohol burned him, the bleach bleached his skin. Jeff let out a terrible screech as he caught on fire. He tried to roll out the fire but it wasno use, the alcohol had made him a walking inferno. He ran down the hall, and fell down the stairs. Everybody started screaming as they saw Jeff, now a man on fire, drop to the ground, nearly dead. The last thing Jeff saw was his mother and the other parents trying to extinguish the flame. That's when he passed out.When Jeff woke he had a cast wrapped around his face. He couldn't see anything, but he felt a cast on his shoulder, and stitches all over his body. He tried to stand up, but he realized that there was some tube in his arm, and when he tried to get up it fell out, and a nurse rushed in."I don't think you can get out of bed just

Jeff was visited by his family. Then came the day where his bandages were to be removed. His family were all there to see it, what he would look like. As the doctors unwrapped the bandages from Jeff's face everyone was on the edge of their seats. They waited until the last bandage holding the cover over his face was almost removed."Let's hope for the best," said the doctor. He quickly pulls the cloth; letting the rest fall from Jeff's face.Jeff's mother screams at the sight of his face. Liu and Jeff's dad stare awe-struck at his face."What? What happened to my face?" Jeff said. He rushed out of bed and ran to the bathroom. He looked in the mirror and saw the cause of the distress. Hisface. It...it's horrible. His lips were burnt to a deep shade of red. His face was turned into a pure white color, and his hair singed from brown to black. He slowly put his hand to his face. It had a sort of leathery feel to it now. He looked back at his family then back at the mirror."Jeff," said Liu, "It's not that bad....""Not that bad?" said Jeff," It's perfect!" His family were equally surprised. Jeff started laughing uncontrollably His parents noticed that his left eye and hand were twitching."Uh... Jeff, are you okay?""Okay? I've never felt more happy! Ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaa, look at me. This face goes perfectly with me!" He couldn't stop laughing. He stroked his face feeling it. Looking at it

in the mirror. What caused this? Well, you may recall that when Jeff was fighting Randy something in his mind, his sanity, snapped. Now he was left as a crazy killing machine, that is, his parents didn't know."Doctor," said Jeff's mom, "Is my son... alright, you know. In the head?""Oh yes, this behavior is typical for patients that have taken very large amounts of pain killers. If his behavior doesn't change in a few weeks, bring him back here, and we'll give him a psychological test.""Oh thank you doctor." Jeff's mother went over to Jeff." Jeff, sweety. It's time to go."Jeff looks away from the mirror, his face still formed into a crazy smile. "Kay mommy, ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaa!" his mother took him by the shoulder and tookhim to get his clothes."This is what came in," said the lady at the desk. Jeff's mom looked down to see the black dress pants and white hoodie her son wore. Now they were clean of blood and now stitched together. Jeff's mother led him to his room and made him put his clothes on. Then they left, not knowing that this was their final day of life.Later that night, Jeff's mother woke to a sound coming from the bathroom. It sounded as if someone was crying. She slowly walked over to see what it was. When she looked into the bathroom she saw a horrendous sight. Jeff had taken a knife and carved a smile into his cheeks."Jeff, what are you doing?" asked his mother.Jeff looked over

That's the last thing they hear as Jeff rushes them with the knife, gutting both of them.His brother Liu woke up, startled by some noise. He didn't hear anything else, so he just shut his eyes and tried to go back to sleep. As he was on the border of slumber, he got the strangest feeling that someone was watching him. He looked up, before Jeff's hand covered his mouth. He slowly raised the knife ready to plunge it into Liu. Liu thrashed here and there trying to escape Jeff's grip."Shhhhhhh," Jeff said. "Just go to sleep." Why? Because every Halloween I put a cardboard box at my bus stop that has a bunch of Kindergartners and have a tape recorder in it telling a scary story while Icards – and regardless of where the money is stored – in a United States financial institution or an offshore bank – we will trace the funds.

The indictments allege that the defendants own and manage illegal gambling businesses involving online sports betting. The affidavit alleges

that Homeland Security Investigations in Baltimore, Maryland opened an undercover payment processor business, called Linwood Payment Solutions. Linwood allowed undercover agents to gain person-to-person contact with top managers of gambling organizations to discuss the Internet gambling business, to negotiate contracts and terms of the processing, and to handle the intricate movement and processing of collection and payment data from the gambling organizations to the banks. The affidavit alleges that on November 12, 2009, a Maryland-based online gambler and cooperating informant confirmed that he/she frequented gambling sites, opened accounts and gambled in Maryland. The gambler agreed to set up online gambling accounts and was provided $500 to place bets on gambling websites. The gambler created an account on a BetEd website and placed several bets. On March 30, 2010, BetEdused Linwood to wire transfer $100 in winnings to the gambler’s bank account. Linwood allegedly processed gambling transactions since 2009 for BetEd, K23 and other gambling organizations using banks located in Guam and Charlotte, North Carolina. According to the affidavit, between December 2009 and January 2011, Linwood processed over 300,000 transactions worth more than $33 million, including transactions for individuals in Maryland. Between February 2010 and March 2011 alone, BetEd directed Linwood to wire transfer over $2.5 million of collected gambling proceeds to bank accounts in Panama; and between February 2011 and April 2011, K23 directed Linwood to wire transfer over $91,000 of gambling proceeds to bank accounts in Portugal and Malta. The indictments and affidavit seek the forfeiture of the bank accounts used to process the gambling transactions, as

identities, the scope of their portfolios, and connections with other patent-holders. The White House also wants the USPTO to train examiners to cut down on overly broad patent claims, educate small inventors about how to deal with patent trolls, and expand its outreach to inventors to help develop policies and laws. In addition, the administration ordered a review of the U.S. International Trade Commission, which has the ability to ban imports of goods deemed to infringe on patents. Patent-holding companies are increasingly taking their claims to the ITC, and the White House would like their enforcement decisions to be made more transparent and efficient. The Obama administration has made patent reform a priority, passing the first major overhaul of the patent system since 1952. That 2011 bill allowed the USPTO toThese reforms, along with legislation implemented in October last year, are set to revolutionise the way the 28-year-old law works and give effect to commitments made by former Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, in the lead up to the 2007 election. Professor McMillan told The Sydney Morning Herald in an interview last month that the new reforms would ‘transform government,’ because they created a new emphasis on ‘pro-disclosure.’ Queensland Information Commissioner, Julie Kinross, agrees with McMillan’s sentiments for what the new reforms should bring, but says their implementation at a Federal level may not be as smooth as first thought, as the new Gillard Government is ‘un-tested.’ ‘You need a very strong political leadership that really shows and tells the bureaucracy that this is how it expects and how it wants the

‘this doesn’t affect me.’ You need a senior government leader within the executive of government driving these reforms.’ While it is uncertain as to how the Prime Minister or Government will perform with the new reforms, Ms Kinross believes a positive sign that FoI reform could bring about a new era of transparency and openness in government was seen when Prime Minister Julia Gillard was education minister. ‘In her role as education minister, Ms Gillard showed the required leadership with the My Schools website, which was significant reform in openning up an area of information that would otherwise stay closed,’ Ms Kinross explains. ‘The Prime Minister showed leadership on reform and transparency in the face of pressures from certain areas of society. Yet her leadership and her government’s leadership are stillto keep it together, sabotaging her grade and her one chance at a meaningful relationship. It takes a hard truth from her only friend before Amy realises that she has to come to terms with her past, before she destroys her future. ‘Look, I have to go. Can we talk about this later?’ Dad was asking Mum. Joe had shut the door behind him, and it was a good thing he did too, because when Dad had finished speaking, Mum picked up an empty bottle of Grey Goose vodka and threw it at his head. She missed, missed by a mile, but that didn’t stop the bottle hitting the wall behind him and shattering into thousands of tiny pieces. ‘Jesus!’ Dad exclaimed. He turned around, surveying the damage. ‘Oh, look what

Elijah Wood recived one of the One Ring props and Sting Frodo’s sword Elijah Wood was cast as Frodo Baggins in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, the first installment of director Peter Jackson’s adaptation of J. R. R. Tolkien’s novel. His most hotly anticipated project, the 2001 film gave Wood top billing as Baggins, alongside a cast that included Ian McKellen, Liv Tyler, Orlando Bloom, Cate Blanchett, Christopher Lee, Sean Bean, Sean Astin, Billy Boyd, Dominic Monaghan, Viggo Mortensen, and John Rhys-Davies. The Lord of the Rings was filmed in New Zealand for over a year, and before the cast left the country, Jackson gave Wood two gifts: one of the One Ring props used on the set and Sting, Frodo’s sword. He wasalso given a pair of prosthetic “hobbit feet” which were worn during filming. In 2002, Wood lent his voice to the direct-to-video release of The Adventures of Tom Thumb and Thumbelina. The second part of Peter Jackson’s trilogy was also released, titled The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. In 2003, he starred in the direct-to-video movie All I Want (also titled Try Seventeen), with The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King unveiled that December, sweeping the 76th Academy Awards in early 2004.

The authors then examine in detail the major policy responses of states to asylum, grouping them into four main categories: measures aiming to prevent access to state territory, measures to deter arrivals, measures to limit stay, and measures to manage arrival. Moving then to explore the efficacy of these measures, the authors consider the utility of policy making from the viewpoints of states, asylum seekers and refugees, and international society. The article concludes with the presentation of four new directions in which policies could move in order better to square the professed interests of Western states with the needs of refugees for protection. 17 December 2013 17 December 2013 In recent years states across the world have boosted their legal and institutional
