", "On January 23, 1961, the Court entered an agreed order permanently enjoining the District, its Superintendent and Board of Trustees, from discriminating on the basis of race. ", "That order required the implementation of a \"stairstep\" freedom of choice desegregation plan that was fully consistent with the constitutional requirements then prevailing.[1]\nThe action lay quiescent for some fourteen years until the District sought leave in May, 1975, to implead the secretary of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (hereafter called \"HEW\" or \"the Department\") and other Department officials.[2] After the District's Motion was granted, GISD filed a third-party complaint seeking to enjoin administrative enforcement proceedings initiated by HEW pursuant to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to terminate federal financial assistance that GISD received.[3] Although the Court entered its Order to Show Cause why an injunction should not be granted, GISD and HEW jointly requested that the Court enter a consent order that seemingly resolved the dispute in the District's favor. ", "Plaintiffs did not appear, and no other parties sought to intervene. ", "The Consent Order was signed on June 16 and entered on June 18, 1975.", "\nOn November 10, 1975, GISD again sought an order to show cause, alleging that HEW had failed to comply with the Consent Order in that it had denied GISD's application for funds under the Emergency School Aid Act of 1972 (hereafter called \"ESAA\"). ", "Though signed by the presiding judge, the order to show cause was never formally filed and entered through error of the Clerk. ", "HEW did, however, receive notice that a hearing was set. ", "On the appointed day, HEW appeared through its representatives and consented to proceed in an effort to show cause. ", "HEW agreed that its discretion in refusing to fund GISD's ESAA application would be subject to review.", "\nA hearing was held on December 8-11, 1975, the testimony of officials from the Department and the District was received, and the Court took the matter under advisement. ", "This Memorandum Opinion constitutes the Court's findings of fact and conclusions of law.", "\nPrefatory to the Court's findings of fact, a brief summary of the pertinent statutory provisions is in order. ", "Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000d-2000d-4, prohibits recipients of federal funds from discriminating on the basis of race, color, or national origin. ", "42 U.S.C. § 2000d.

", "20 U.S.C. § 1605(a). ", "A school district is ineligible under the Act if it has transferred property to a private segregated academy, discriminated against minority employees, assigned students to classes on a discriminatory basis, or limited school activities to avoid participation by minority students. ", "The Act also provides that an ESAA application may be approved only if HEW's Assistant Secretary determines that the applicant's threshold eligibility plan does not involve freedom of choice, unless he determines that freedom of choice \"has achieved, or will achieve, the complete elimination of a dual school system in the school district . . ..\" ", "20 U.S.C. § 1609(a)(7).", "\n\nII. ", "THE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS\nThere is no contention that the District has violated the 1961 desegregation Order. ", "Instead, the evidence indicates that the District voluntarily implemented supplemental programs designed to desegregate its schools at a more rapid rate than that literally required by the Court. ", "The District's progress in these efforts went unchallenged until April, 1973. ", "Prior to that date, no request for funds administered by HEW was denied on the basis of noncompliance with the Department's Title VI criteria. ", "In fact, HEW determined in 1968 that the District's plan \"should eliminate all vestiges of the dual school system that existed prior to the 1961 Order,\" and commended the District for its leadership.[4]\nDuring the two previous school years, 1972-73 and 1973-74, HEW approved the District's application under ESAA for funds to assist in the operation of a Guidance and Counseling Center. ", "The Center, which seeks to prevent school dropouts, served 531 students during the 1973-74 school year, consisting of 290 Blacks, 119 Spanish-surnamed students, and 122 non-minority students.[5] The HEW official most familiar with the program characterized it as excellent.", "\nAlthough prior to 1975 HEW had given no indication that the District was ineligible to receive funds under ESAA, the decision early in 1973 of Adams v. Richardson, 351 F.Supp. ", "636 (D.D.C.), made apparent that the Department's previous position would undergo a marked change. ", "In that case, the District Court for the District of Columbia held that HEW had not sufficiently enforced Title VI's requirements. ", "Among other directives not pertinent here, the Adams Court enjoined HEW to notify some 85 school districts that they were presumptively in violation of Swann v. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education, 402 U.S. 1, 91 S.Ct. ", "1267, 28 L.Ed.2d 554 (1971), and to require them to rebut or explain the substantial disproportion thought to exist in their schools. ", "Adams v.

", "HEW's Office for Civil Rights (hereafter called \"OCR\") advised the District accordingly in April, 1973.", "\n*466 Unknown to HEW,[6] the District was mistakenly included in the group of 85 districts listed in Adams. ", "In its Memorandum and Order filed on December 19, 1975, this Court noted:\nSection 2000d-5, title 45 [42] U.S.C., provides that a school district's compliance with a final court order for desegregation of that district's schools shall be deemed compliance with the requirements of Title VI. ", "The Adams Court recognized that\nUntil there has been a finding by the Court entering the order that its order has not been complied with, [HEW] is under no obligation to effectuate the provisions of Title VI through administrative or judicial enforcement proceedings. . . . ", "The responsibility for compliance by a school district and other educational agencies under court order rests upon the court issuing said order.", "\n356 F.Supp. ", "at 99. ", "Since the Order entered by this Court on January 23, 1961 is a final desegregation order within the meaning of section 2000d-5, it is apparent that the Adams opinions were entered without knowledge of it. ", "Thus, GISD was misclassified as a school district with respect to which HEW retained Title VI administrative compliance responsibilities.", "\nAccordingly, this Court directed appropriate government officials to advise the Adams Court \"of the pendency of this action and of this Court's finding that its 1961 Order is a final desegregation order within the meaning of 42 U.S.C. § 2000d-5. . . .\"", "\nBetween April, 1973 and May 2, 1974, officials from HEW's Regional Office met and exchanged correspondence with GISD representatives. ", "As a result, it became clear that the sole basis for the contention that the District was in violation of Title VI lay in the fact that four of the District's schools reflected the statistical disproportion condemned in Swann.[7]\nDuring its discussions with HEW, GISD submitted various documents to show that this statistical imbalance could be explained on grounds other than the existence of vestiges of a dual system, such as an increase in the proportion of minority students to over 60%, a significant decline in the total number of school age children, and changes in the District's demographic patterns.[8] Although HEW did not present any witness who personally evaluated GISD's position, it appears that the Department took the position that as long as the four schools maintained the statistical disproportion, the District would be held ipso facto to be in noncompliance.[9] Though the District emphasized the importance of an on-site inspection, HEW apparently ignored these invitations. ", "There is no evidence that HEW conferred with any student, teacher, parent or other person aside from GISD officials, concerning the school system. ", "Meaningful inquiry as to the factual basis for HEW's evaluation of GISD was largely foreclosed by repeated references to the obscure lines of bureaucratic authority. ", "HEW's responses to the District's submissions, in short, reflect a minimal knowledge of *467 the conditions actually prevalent.[10] Accordingly, the Court finds that no credible evidence demonstrates that the Department gave meaningful consideration to the relevant facts.", "\nOn May 2, 1974, HEW's Regional Office advised the District that it was referring all questions concerning the status of the District's desegregation efforts to the Office for Civil Rights in Washington with the recommendation that \"administrative enforcement proceedings be initiated immediately.", "\"[11] The District was directed to send any further communication to the Director of the Education Division of the OCR in Washington.

", "Dr. Goldberg referred those inquiries to the Office of General Counsel and the Office for Civil Rights, on whom he wholly relied in civil rights compliance matters. ", "On June 25, 1975, Dr. Goldberg sent a second mailgram[23] to GISD prepared by those officers stating that the Department had \"overlooked\" a more serious defect in GISD's application than that mentioned in his June 16 mailgram. ", "This document begins with the observation that threshold eligibility for an ESAA grant must be met by a desegregation plan implemented pursuant to a final court order, approved by the Secretary as adequate under Title VI, or voluntarily adopted with the Secretary's approval. ", "Dr. Goldberg then noted that GISD's application was originally made on the basis of a plan approved by HEW as adequate under Title VI, and concluded that the District was ineligible because the OCR had determined that GISD was not implementing that plan. ", "The mailgram disposed of GISD's contention that this Court's 1961 desegregation Order constituted a plan meeting ESAA's threshold eligibility requirements with the comment that \"[t]he 1961 court order involved freedom of choice as a means of desegregation and, as indicated . . .

", "In the Court's view, the various documents emanating from HEW's Washington headquarters were largely ex post facto rationalizations for a course of action that, so far as the record reveals, was chosen precipitously and without any careful analysis of the facts.

", "VIOLATION OF THE CONSENT ORDER\nOn the foregoing facts, GISD alleges that the Department violated the June 16th Consent Order. ", "GISD maintains that the Consent Order prevented HEW from declining to grant any funds, including those provided under ESAA, on the basis of an administrative determination that the District had not sufficiently desegregated its schools. ", "HEW argues that the Order precluded only proceedings pursuant to Title VI and left the Department with discretion to determine that GISD failed to meet ESAA's civil rights eligibility requirements. ", "In the Department's view, the Galveston School District's interpretation would give the Order an impermissibly broad effect inasmuch as an agreed order's scope must be discerned from within its \"four corners.", "\"[25]See United States v. Armour & Co., 402 U.S. 673, 91 S.Ct. ", "1752, 29 L.Ed.2d 256 (1971); Star Bedding Co. v. Englander Co., 239 F.2d 537 (8th Cir. ", "1957). ", "Thus, a court may not construe a consent decree to prohibit acts not expressly condemned to implement some hypothetical \"purpose.\" ", "See id. The June 16th Order, however, is distinguishable from those in the cited cases because its purpose was stated expressly in the first numbered paragraph as being to preclude HEW from \"withholding or depriving said School District of any Federal financial assistance or funds under their control or administration for the reason that such School District is or has failed to desegregate its school system . . . .\" ", "Given that the Order's purpose is made express, it seems not amiss to take it into consideration. ", "Of equal importance, the Order's second numbered paragraph broadly provided that\nThe third-party defendants [HEW] will allow filing of, and consider, evaluate, process, and act upon, any request or application by defendant Galveston Independent School District for Federal financial assistance or funds under their control, supervision, or administration, which it has sought or may seek to fund or defray in the cost of any education program to which it would be otherwise entitled.", "\n(emphasis added).", "\nThe emphasized language makes entirely clear that the Order required HEW to consider, process and act upon all GISD applications. ", "Thus, although *472 the Order refers in terms only to Title VI and its implementing regulations, it cannot be said that the Order excludes ESAA from its provisions. ", "Even HEW seems to concede this much. ", "Similarly, there can be no doubt that neither this nor any other language contained in the Order required the Department to grant any request for funds made by GISD.", "\nStated concisely, the issue is whether the Order prevented HEW from refusing \"any\" application, including those submitted under ESAA, solely on the ground that the District was ineligible to receive assistance because of the status of its desegregation efforts. ", "The Court concludes that this question must be answered in the affirmative for the following reasons. ", "First, the language quoted above from the first numbered paragraph states that HEW was not to deny funds on the basis of GISD's desegregation progress while the language from the second numbered paragraph makes clear that that prohibition included all education funds under HEW's control. ", "Second, as will appear below, the ESAA statute's eligibility provisions are inseparable from and equivalent to Title VI's requirements. ", "Thus, in the absence of a clause expressly excluding ESAA funds,[26] HEW could not consistent with the Order make the same determination pursuant to ESAA that it had promised not to make pursuant to Title VI. ", "Third, HEW was bound by its own interpretation of the Consent Order's requirements as stated by the OCR's Director, Peter Holmes, in his letter of June 20th. ", "That document states that GISD was \"eligible to apply for and receive all classes of Federal financial assistance.\" (", "emphasis added).", "\nHEW also argues that ESAA is entirely distinct from Title VI and that unlike Title VI, ESAA requires it to make an administrative determination that an applicant for funds meets the Act's civil rights eligibility criteria even though the applicant is subject to a final court desegregation order. ", "Under this reading of the statute, HEW must administratively determine the sufficiency of a court desegregation order if a school district submits the order to meet the Act's threshold eligibility requirement. ", "Dr. Goldberg went so far as to take the view that ESAA authorized HEW to make such a determination even if a federal court entered a declaratory judgment holding that a school district had completely fulfilled its constitutional obligations to dismantle a formerly dual system. ", "HEW concludes that the Consent Order's scope is limited by ESAA's requirements, for the Consent Order could not remove HEW's statutory obligation to determine the sufficiency of GISD's desegregation plan.", "\nThe Court is of the view that the premise of HEW's argument is invalid. ", "The Act does not grant HEW the authority to review the sufficiency of a Federal Court's order. ", "Initially, it is clear from a careful reading of the Emergency School Aid Act that the pertinent provision is ambiguous. ", "Section 706 of the Act, 20 U.S.C. § 1605, sets forth the threshold requirement that an applicant, termed \"a local education agency,\" be implementing one of three types of desegregation plans. ", "Subsection (a)(1)(A) governs both plans adopted pursuant to an order and plans approved as adequate by the Secretary under Title VI, while subsection (a)(1)(B) governs voluntary plans. ", "In its entirety, section 706(a)(1)(A) provides:\n(a)(1) The Assistant Secretary is authorized to make a grant to, or a contract with, a local educational agency —\n(A) which is implementing a plan —\n(i) which has been undertaken pursuant to a final order issued by a court of the United States, or a court of any State, or any other State agency or official of competent jurisdiction, and which requires *473 the desegregation of minority group segregated children or faculty in the elementary and secondary schools of such agency, or otherwise requires the elimination or reduction of minority group isolation in such schools; or\n(ii) which has been approved by the Secretary as adequate under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 for the desegregation of minority group segregated children or faculty in such schools . . ..", "\nHEW does not contend that GISD is not subject to a court desegregation order within the meaning of subsection 706(a)(1)(A)(i), and to avoid any doubt on that point, this Court holds that its 1961 Order is a \"final order issued by a court of the United States\" within that subsection's meaning. ", "Rather, the Department contends that section 710(a)(7), 20 U.S.C. § 1609(a)(7), gives it authority to review the sufficiency of any plan under section 706. ", "In its entirety, section 710(a)(7) provides:\n(a) . . . ", "The Assistant Secretary may approve such an application only if he determines that such application —\n(7) provides that the plan with respect to which such agency is seeking assistance (as specified in section [706(a)(1)(A) of this Title]) does not involve freedom of choice as a means of desegregation, unless the Assistant Secretary determines that freedom of choice has achieved, or will achieve, the complete elimination of a dual school system in the school district of such agency . . ..", "\nSection 710(a)(7)'s reference back to section 706(a)(1)(A) seemingly requires HEW to reevaluate all plans under that subsection to determine either that they do not involve freedom of choice, or that if they do, the plan \"has achieved or will achieve\" the complete elimination of the former dual system. ", "However, with respect to section 706(a)(1)(A)(ii) plans — those \"approved by the Secretary as adequate under title VI\" — it is apparent that the Secretary would have already made the very same determination in approving the plan under Title VI. ", "That Title VI sweeps at least as broadly as section 710(a)(7)'s requirement was made clear by the Adams decisions which effectively read into Title VI the desegregation requirements announced in Alexander and Swann.

Weinberger, 391 F.Supp. ", "269, 271 (D.D.C.1975). ", "That HEW itself takes the view that section 710(a)(7) does not require it to again review the sufficiency of a plan that it has approved under Title VI is suggested by the fact that it has not adopted any specific regulatory provision implementing section 710(a)(7). ", "See C.F.R. Part 185 (1975). ", "Thus, in this case, HEW used its findings made pursuant to Title VI to deny assistance under ESAA. ", "Unless one takes the position that Congress demanded that HEW perform a needless and redundant act, it is clear that section 710(a)(7)'s reference back was not intended to include the whole of section 706(a)(1)(A).", "\nHaving established that principle, the validity of HEW's position turns on whether section 710(a)(7) includes within its reference \"a final order issued by a court of the United States\" in 706(a)(1)(A)(i).

[ "For over thirty years, fans of the Final Fantasy franchise have uniquely identified their various heroic avatars with this proud epithet: The Warriors of Light. ", "The Square Enix flagship IP holds a Guinness World Record as the most prolific RPG series of all time and every single one of these titles is implicitly — and often explicitly — centered upon the epic and eternal struggle between the metaphysical forces of Light and Darkness.", "\n\nWe have always, if sometimes tentatively, sided with the Light… That is, until now.", "\n\nThe reveal trailer for Final Fantasy XIV’s upcoming expansion Shadowbringers recently introduced to players an alarming new narrative and aesthetic fulcrum. ", "We — this world’s long-vaunted Warrior of Light — must and will embrace an antithetical and antagonistic notion: to become the Warrior of Darkness.", "\n\nBut why? ", "Out of desperation and necessity? ", "Manipulation and coercion by evil forces? ", "Or are we simply fed up with being treated as a blunt instrument by the self-righteous political factions of the world of Hydaelyn?", "\n\nSince an aphoristic yet character-defining moment at the climax of 2.0, we have been known from Ishgard to Othard as the the Mother Crystal’s chosen paradigm of transcendent strength and moral authority; unwavering, indefatigable, and frankly, barely human — the Warrior of Light.", "\n\nIt is more than a title–it is our purpose and our destiny. ", "How can we possibly discard this mantle? ", "Many of us are left to ponder in equal measures of gleeful and nervous anticipation what this might mean for what is shaping up to be FFXIV’s most exciting and ambitious expansion since A Realm Reborn (ARR).", "\n\nWhat is the Warrior of Darkness?", "\n\nTo fully understand what this tone shift might mean for FFXIV, we need to dig a little through the history of the franchise.", "\n\nThe Warriors of Darkness played an important role with their inaugural appearance, all the way back in Final Fantasy III (1990). ", "An ancient civilisation in this world payed for their ambition and hubris with a flood of light — an eventually world-erasing phenomenon precipitated when the universal force of Light too greatly outweighed that of Darkness. ", "So four heroes set out to fight their way to the figurative dimmer-switch and subsequently became known as the Warriors of Darkness.", "\n\nIn the present age, the pendulum swings back — an encroaching flood of Darkness urges the protagonists upon a quest to restore the Light. ", "Towards the end of their journey, these Warriors of Light reawaken their ancient Dark counterparts whom in turn sacrifice themselves in order to weaken the story’s evil mastermind — the enigmatic Cloud of Darkness — allowing the heroes to ultimately prevail.", "\n\nDespite the binary relationship between Light and Darkness, the introduction of the Warriors of Darkness into the franchise brings with it the curious notion that they are not necessarily antagonists. ", "Instead, their role is a product of their conditions, specifically the need to restore balance between universal forces. ", "They are equally receptive to help our fight against the Darkness to this end as they once were to combat the flood of Light.", "\n\nOf course we have already encountered self-proclaimed Warriors of Darkness in FFXIV as early as patch 3.0 of Heavensward; but the story of FFIII serves as a clear albeit general template for their appearance in Eorzea.", "\n\nArbert and the First Shard\n\nThe cosmogony of the FFXIV multiverse is perhaps the most esoteric of the whole franchise, but to understand in context the role of the Warrior of Darkness we should indulge a small tangent.", "\n\nOur world is the Source of thirteen reflections, sundered at the beginning of time by the attrition between Light and Darkness i.e. Hydaelyn and Zodiark. ", "Hydaelyn prevailed, Zodiark’s essence was sealed away.

", "Okay!", "\n\nFrom one of these parallel worlds — “the First” — overzealous Warriors of Light thwarted every encroach of the Darkness and vanquished their Ascians utterly. ", "With this victory, balance was lost on their plane; its peoples stood on the brink a seemingly-unstoppable flood of Light whilst mother Hydaelyn met their prayers for deliverance with only silence.", "\n\nEnter the enigmatic Elidibus, white-robed Ascian overlord and self-proclaimed emissary of Zodiark. ", "Elidibus offered to our counterpart on the First, Arbert, a desperate solution. ", "The flood of Light would not only destroy everyone and unmake their world: it would leave them all in an agonising state of suspension between life and death.

", "The subsequent Rejoining of their world to ours would save theirs from nightmarish purgatory; instead allowing its denizens the preferable release of death.", "\n\nWith no imaginable alternative, Arbert and company acquiesced to Elidibus’ plot and with grief and fury embraced their new role as the Warriors of Darkness: champions of chaos, a seemingly-necessary evil and direct adversaries to we Warriors of Light here upon the Source.", "\n\nBut they had been deceived.", "\n\nUpon first learning of the movements of these Warriors of Darkness, Urianger Augurelt — one of our Scion allies — feinted conspiracy with Elidibus and the Warriors of Darkness to play the double agent whilst secretly searching for another solution. ", "He pitted the Warrior of Light and Darkness against one another until they unwittingly completed a ritual which brought them into the presence of Hydaelyn and her own emissary, Minfilia.", "\n\nThere, Hydaelyn explained Arbert’s error and the machinations of Elidibus — she did not intend to let their world drown in Light. ", "Hydaelyn had heard their prayers and supplications all along; she had been but powerless to respond, weakened by the strain of recent calamity and intervention.", "\n\nShe intended to send Minfilia to the First to “take unto herself” the abundance of Light before it could consume their world (the consequences of which we might be finally observing here upon the Source as we approach Shadowbringers).", "\n\nDespite Arbert’s indignation, he accepted these terms and stood down in exchange for a favour: to take him and his companions home. ", "At this, the tragic Warrior of Darkness turned to us with a final mote of wisdom:\n\nWe were blind to the truth once. ", "So I tell you this, as one fool to another. ", "Light, Dark, it doesn’t matter. ", "What matters is how you choose to use them. ", "We made our choice, and you see what came of it. ", "So please… forge a different path.

", "He is summarily swatted as an Archer, Warrior, Dragoon, Monk, and Samurai before a spectacular and spine-tingling transformation into Dark Knight.", "\n\nAlthough the action of the trailer is likely more emblematic than literal (no FFXIV trailer yet has been), this focus on the quintessential Final Fantasy job of Dark Knight is very interesting. ", "Although it had appeared previously, the archetypical Dark Knight of the franchise would have to be Cecil Harvey, the main protagonist of Final Fantasy IV.", "\n\nThe crown of Cecil’s character arc is forsaking the Darkness to become a Paladin, having found the powers of the Dark Knight insufficient to combat Darkness itself. ", "The apex, fighting and defeating a manifestation of his own inner Darkness. ", "As we move into Shadowbringers, it might seem implicit that our own hero must overcome an inversion of the same kind of trial.", "\n\nThe idea of embracing the Darkness should feel particularly compelling to those of us that have invested time into leveling Dark Knight and experiencing one of the better pieces of side-story in XIV. ", "If you haven’t played through it yet, you should.", "\n\nIn every other one of XIV’s narratives, the hero seems resigned to playing a mute sycophant. ", "In our most banal moments, the Warrior of Light seems aligned to Lawful Stupid. ", "The Dark Knight quest line offers us a little more depth — afterwards we can think of our character as a tortured stoic, adopting a posture both burdened and brave, for the sake of those under our protection.

Near $P$, canards could eventually appear for which the orbit tracks the manifold $\\mathcal{L}_S$ formed by saddle of the fast dynamics. ", "However, this type of canards can occur only if $P$ is near the plane $\\dot{z}=0$ (within a $O(\\sqrt{\\varepsilon})$ distance). ", "But the assumption that this plane separates properly $\\Delta $ and the manifold $\\mathcal{M}$ ($d_2$ small enough) generally forbids such behavior.", "\n\nHence, any orbit in the strictly positive octant displays, sooner or later, the motion described in Subsection \\[GlobBehavTT\\] as there exists a globally attractive periodic orbit of this type (see [@Vidal06; @Vidal07]). ", "Thus, the entry of this periodic orbit – as the entry of any orbit after spiraling around $\\mathcal{M}$ – in a given neighborhood of $\\Delta $ occurs for $z=z_P+O(\\varepsilon ^{2/3})$. The delay to bifurcation after the passage in the vicinity of $T$ is then mostly characterized by $z_P - z_T$. In fact, as calculated for [(\\[DTCBB\\])]{} in [(\\[paramk\\])]{}, the contraction exponent between $\\Delta $ and the orbit is chiefly determined by $z_P - z_T$.\n\nThe “exceptionally fast recovery” that we have pointed out therein may have some connection with the notion of “loss of resilience” which has been discussed in several dynamical models related to Ecology [@H; @LWH; @Martin].

", " 29 U.S.C. Secs. ", "621-634. ", " We affirm.", "\n\nI. Background\n\n2\nLone Star Steel Co., a manufacturer of tubular products for use in the oil and gas industry, hired Glenn Uffelman as a staff engineer in 1975 when he was fifty-one years of age. ", " Uffelman, who came to Lone Star with a degree in engineering and over twenty years experience as a production engineer, was assigned to the construction engineering section of the engineering department. ", " He performed a variety of services there, including among other things supervising the activities of outside contractors and working as an expediter for various engineering projects.", "\n\n\n3\nIn 1982, William Ulevich was hired to manage the engineering department at Lone Star. ", " Shortly thereafter, the price of oil began declining, together with the need for drilling equipment and Lone Star's products. ", " Ulevich decided that the engineering department would have to be reorganized and jobs terminated. ", " On December 15, 1983, Ulevich submitted his proposal for the reorganization to Lone Star's human resources department. ", " This proposal called for the elimination of the construction engineering section and the reorganization of the remaining engineering sections into four subdepartments. ", " Although Ulevich did not develop objective job descriptions, he determined in general what functions engineering would continue to perform and how many employees would be needed to perform those functions. ", " Ulevich then matched employees to the remaining jobs and presented the entire plan to Robert Frane, the director of human resources.", "\n\n\n4\nOn May 3, 1984, Uffelman, along with nine other Lone Star employees, was discharged. ", " Of the ten who were terminated, nine were over the age of forty and thus within the ADEA's protected group.1 After complying with the administrative steps through the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Uffelman brought this suit against Lone Star pursuant to the ADEA, alleging that his discharge was unlawful in that his age was a determinative factor in the decision to let him go. ", " Lone Star claimed that Uffelman's discharge was motivated by the company's declining business and Uffelman's unsatisfactory work performance. ", " The jury, finding both that Lone Star discharged Uffelman because of his age and that it did so willfully, awarded back pay in the amount of $75,910.25. ", " The district court, denying Lone Star's motions for judgment n.o.v. ", "and for a new trial, doubled this amount in its entry of judgment based on the jury's finding of willfulness.2 See 29 U.S.C. Sec. ", "626(b).", "\n\n\n5\nLone Star appeals on the following grounds: (1) that the evidence was insufficient to support the jury's finding of intent to discriminate; (2) that the evidence was insufficient to support the jury's finding that Lone Star willfully violated the ADEA; and (3) that Uffelman's back pay should have been tolled from January 1985 to the present since the evidence established that Uffelman voluntarily withdrew from the labor market, thereby willfully failing to mitigate his damages.", "\n\nII. ", "Sufficiency of the Evidence\n\n6\nIn reviewing the denial of a motion for judgment n.o.v., ", "this court's task is to determine whether the record contains evidence upon which a reasonable trier of fact could conclude as the jury did, keeping in mind that \"it is the function of the jury as the traditional finder of the facts, and not the Court, to weigh conflicting evidence and inferences, and determine the credibility of witnesses.\" ", " Boeing Co. v. Shipman, 411 F.2d 365, 375 (5th Cir.1969) (en banc).", "\n\nA. Age Discrimination\n\n7\nThe plaintiff's prima facie case of age discrimination in a reduction in force situation consists of: (1) satisfying the ADEA's standing requirements that he is within the protected group and he has been adversely affected by the employer's decisions; (2) showing that he was qualified to assume another position at the time of the discharge; and (3) producing evidence from which a factfinder might reasonably conclude that the employer intended to discriminate in reaching the decision at issue. ", " Thornbrough v. Columbus and Greenville R. Co., 760 F.2d 633, 642 (5th Cir.1985). ", " The employee may meet this burden by proving that younger employees, or those outside the protected group, were more favorably treated. ", " Id. at 639. ", " If the defendant articulates legitimate reasons for its actions, the plaintiff bears the burden of demonstrating that those reasons were pretextual. ", " Texas Dept. ", "of Community Affairs v. Burdine, 450 U.S. 248, 253, 101 S.Ct. ", "1089, 1093, 67 L.Ed.2d 207 (1981).", "\n\n\n8\nLone Star claimed that Uffelman was terminated because of the company's declining business and Uffelman's substandard work performance. ", " The parties presented conflicting evidence regarding Uffelman's work record, and Uffelman's response to the workforce reduction explanation was that Lone Star resolved admitted financial problems by terminating older employees in a discriminatory fashion. ", " We conclude that the jury was presented with evidence from which it was entitled to find that Lone Star did discriminate because of age and that its proffered rationale for Uffelman's termination was pretextual.", "\n\n\n9\nContradictory stories arose regarding Uffelman's performance on the job. ", " Lone Star claimed that Uffelman's performance had been unsatisfactory for quite some time before he finally was discharged. ", " It pointed out that Uffelman's annual performance rating reached its lowest point in 1980 and that in 1983 he was placed on probation at the request of his supervisor, Frank Rice.3 Uffelman offered evidence to show, however, that some of the reprimands on which his ratings were based were ill-founded. ", " The conflict in the evidence surrounding Rice's action may have been particularly significant to the jury. ", " Ulevich testified that Rice wanted to discharge Uffelman and came to Ulevich with the request that this be done. ", " Rice testified that he made no such request, that he never intended to see Uffelman--who did excellent work--discharged, and that he recommended an upgrade of Uffelman's evaluation which Ulevich refused. ", " Other co-workers testified that he had done good work for Lone Star over the years and that the quality of his work compared well with that of other similarly situated engineers. ", " A supervisor in another engineering section requested that Uffelman be transferred to his group to work on a special project. ", " That request, too, was denied by Ulevich. ", " From this evidence, the jury could have concluded that Uffelman was well qualified to perform his job and that Lone Star's articulated reason for firing him was simply pretextual.", "\n\n\n10\nThe reduction in force, itself admittedly justified, did not explain Ulevich's decision to discharge Uffelman while retaining several younger, less experienced engineers who continued to perform tasks that Uffelman was qualified to do. ", " This was Uffelman's evidence which the jury accepted. ", " Two engineers, Ogg and Schlossel, both under the age of forty, were retained and transferred to positions which Uffelman apparently convinced the jury he was qualified to fill. ", " Other engineers, within ADEA's protection, were also retained and Uffelman's evidence compared his qualifications favorably with theirs. ", " Lone Star contends that no inference of age discrimination can be drawn from the preferred treatment of engineers who were themselves at an age protected by the ADEA. ", " We disagree. ", " \"We have never demanded rigid adherence to the requirement that the plaintiff establish that he was treated unfavorably as compared with people outside of the protected class--i.e., under age forty.\" ", " Thornbrough, 760 F.2d at 643 n. 14. ", " As we noted in McCorstin v. United States Steel Corp., 621 F.2d 749, 754 (5th Cir.1980),\n\n\n11\nbecause the discrimination involves age, rather than sex or race, a requirement that the replacement be from a nonprotected group fails to take the reality of the working place into account. ", " Because of the value of experience rarely are sixty-year-olds replaced by those under forty. ", " The replacement process is more subtle but just as injurious to the worker who has been discharged. ", " That the person is replaced by a person ten years younger rather than twenty years does not diminish the discrimination; the subtlety only tends to disguise it.", "\n\n\n12\nThe evidence at trial indicated that one of the main purposes of the reorganization was to cut costs. ", " Lone Star saved money in terminating Uffelman's salary and benefits, and by discharging Uffelman nine months short of the time at which his pension was to have vested, and thereby avoiding the expense of retirement pay, the company realized an additional savings. ", " Uffelman established that other older employees were discharged at the same time that he was. ", " Three out of five engineers aged sixty or older were let go, including Frank Rice, the oldest and highest paid engineer in construction engineering, while only one out of twenty-four employees under the age of forty was terminated. ", " The jury was entitled to infer from the evidence that, by retaining younger, lesser paid employees who were not nearly so close to retirement, Lone Star was attempting to further a plan to reduce the average age and pay of its employees.", "\n\n\n13\nUffelman also presented evidence tending to show that younger employees were given differential treatment and were subjected to less scrutiny than the older employees. ", " For example, some of the younger employees left the grounds for late lunches quite frequently. ", " On one occasion when Uffelman took a late lunch, he was reprimanded and written up. ", " Younger employees were offered the chance to take computer training courses while Uffelman was not. ", " This court has held that this sort of treatment is some evidence of discriminatory intent. ", " See Guthrie v. J.C. Penney Co., 803 F.2d 202, 209 (5th Cir.1986).", "\n\n\n14\nThe evidence was sufficient to support the jury's finding that age was a determinative factor in Lone Star's decision to terminate Uffelman.", "\n\nB. Willfulness\n\n15\nThe more difficult issue presented in this appeal concerns the issue of whether Lone Star's discrimination was willful within the meaning of the statute. ", " According to Trans World Airlines, Inc. v. Thurston, 469 U.S. 111, 105 S.Ct. ", "613, 83 L.Ed.2d 523 (1985), a violation of the ADEA is willful if the employer \"either knew or showed reckless disregard for the matter of whether its conduct was prohibited by the ADEA.\" ", " Id. at 128-29, 105 S.Ct. ", "at 625-26. ", " In McLaughlin v. Richland Shoe Co., --- U.S. ----, 108 S.Ct. ", "1677, 100 L.Ed.2d 115 (1988), the Supreme Court made clear that a finding of unreasonableness will not suffice as proof of knowing or reckless disregard:\n\n\n16\nIf an employer acts reasonably in determining its legal obligation, its action cannot be deemed willful under either petitioner's test or under the standard we set forth. ", " If an employer acts unreasonably, but not recklessly, in determining its legal obligation, then, although its action would be considered willful under the petitioner's test, it should not be so considered under Thurston or the identical standard we approve today.", "\n\n\n17\n108 S.Ct. ", "at 1682 n. 13. ", " A finding of willfulness is of particular importance since it (1) entitles a plaintiff to a doubling of any back pay award, see 29 U.S.C. Sec. ", "626(b), and (2) extends the statute of limitations from two to three years, see 29 U.S.C. Sec. ", "626(e).4\n\n\n18\nLone Star contends that it introduced overwhelming, uncontroverted evidence that it acted reasonably and far from willfully in seeking to ensure that its reorganization plan would comport with the law, including the fact that it conducted an independent evaluation of its plan and both sought and received approval of the plan from Lone Star's corporate counsel. ", " Lone Star cites Halferty v. Pulse Drug Co., 826 F.2d 2, 3-4 (5th Cir.1987), to stand for the proposition that the fact that an employer seeks out legal advice before implementing a program like the one at issue here precludes a finding of willfulness. ", " While we agree that an employer who acts reasonably and in good faith in attempting to determine whether its plan will violate the law does not act willfully, it does not follow that seeking legal advice ipso facto establishes the appropriate intent. ", " In reaching a determination on the issue of an employer's good faith, the jury is entitled to weigh the credibility of witnesses and to disbelieve self-serving testimony. ", " Guthrie, 803 F.2d at 207.", "\n\n\n19\nLone Star presented the testimony of its manager of human resources, Mr. Frane, who testified that the reorganization plan designed by Ulevich underwent a three-tiered evaluation process prior to its implementation: (1) a series of meetings with Ulevich to determine the factual basis for the reorganization and the reasons that certain employees were being retained while others were being terminated; (2) an independent evaluation of the reorganization by E.G. Thompson, the manager of equal employment opportunity; and (3) an evaluation of the reorganization by Lone Star's corporate counsel, William Osborn. ", " Neither party called Thompson or Osborn to corroborate or dispute this testimony, but Uffelman did call Ulevich, who testified that he never discussed the age factor inherent in the reorganization with anyone.", "\n\n\n20\nLone Star argues that the fact that Frane did not discuss the impact of the reorganization on older employees with Ulevich does not necessarily mean that such an analysis was never made. ", " We agree. ", " Indeed, under this record the jury may have concluded that the analysis was that of Ulevich and that his preferences and prejudices determined the decision. ", " The jury was free to make reasonable inferences from this evidence of the discussion with Frane. ", " A reasonable juror might have concluded, for example, that the failure to discuss with Ulevich the reorganization plan's age impact, in what were by Lone Star's own admission comprehensive meetings, represented a careless disregard or intentional avoidance of that aspect of the plan. ", " Furthermore, the jury was entitled to disbelieve Frane's self-serving testimony that he and other Lone Star officials carefully reviewed the reorganization plan for compliance with the law, especially in light of the fact that neither Thompson nor Osborn was called upon to testify regarding their roles in the evaluation process.", "\n\n\n21\nThere is another reason to question Lone Star's contention that it acted in good faith in evaluating the legality of the reorganization plan. ", " Ulevich testified that he made his decisions regarding which engineers would remain following the reduction in force without developing objective job descriptions to guide him. ", " Human resources then approved the plan without developing job descriptions as called for by the plan. ", " Although Lone Star claimed that this was not out of the ordinary, the jury was entitled to conclude from this evidence that Lone Star set up the evaluation process merely to create the appearance that it had acted objectively and in good faith. ", " Also, there was some evidence that Lone Star failed to comply with its own policies in evaluating the performance of its employees prior to the reduction in force. ", " Ulevich relied on those same evaluations in deciding which employees would be terminated.", "\n\n\n22\nThe jury was instructed that in order to find that Lone Star's conduct in violating the ADEA was willful, it had to find that Lone Star knew that its conduct violated the law or had reckless disregard for whether its actions conformed to the law;5 it was also instructed that good faith was a defense for Lone Star. ", " The jury was entitled to weigh the credibility of the witnesses and the evidence presented and to find that the evaluation process set up by Lone Star was designed simply to establish its innocence in the event its actions were challenged later. ", " This in itself, taken in connection with the intent to make age a factor and to discriminate against it, is sufficient to support a finding of willfulness.", "\n\nIII. ", "Back Pay\n\n23\nLone Star contends that Uffelman is entitled to back pay, if at all, only from May 1984, when he was discharged, to January 1985. ", " Lone Star claims that it introduced overwhelming evidence that in January 1985 Uffelman made a conscious decision not to remain in the labor market for employment comparable to that which he had at Lone Star and that, therefore, he willfully failed to mitigate his damages. ", " Uffelman presented evidence at trial from which the jury could have concluded that he was unable to obtain comparable employment and that he eventually accepted a job as a hotel clerk in order to have some sort of gainful employment. ", " That he worked less hours and made less money than he could have in that capacity does not mean that he should be entitled to no back pay from that time forward. ", " Without more, we decline to disturb the jury's finding regarding the amount of back pay to which Uffelman is entitled.", "\n\n\n24\nThe judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.", "\n\n\n\n1\n 29 U.S.C. Sec. ", "631(a) provides that \"[t]he prohibitions in this chapter ... shall be limited to individuals who are at least 40 years.\"", "\n\n\n2\n Uffelman also brought an action pursuant to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), 29 U.S.C. Sec. ", "1001 et seq. ", " The district court's original judgment in this case, entered on April 6, 1988, did not dispose of the ERISA claim. ", " Therefore, Lone Star's notice of appeal, filed on April 7, was not from a final judgment. ", " On October 20, the district court, pursuant to Fed.", "R.Civ.", "P. 54(b), certified the April 6 judgment as a final judgment and Lone Star filed a new notice of appeal\n\n\n3\n Lone Star rates an employee's performance according to a five-point scale. ", " One represents unsatisfactory performance. ", " Two indicates that the employee met minimum performance requirements. ", " Three represents satisfactory performance. ", " Four indicates that the employee exceeded requirements. ", " Five represents outstanding performance. ", " Uffelman received his lowest rating, a 2.7, in 1980\n\n\n4\n Because Uffelman filed this suit over two years after the alleged discriminatory firing, his entire claim would have been barred had the jury not found that Lone Star's violation of the ADEA was willful\n\n\n5\n Since the Supreme Court articulated this standard for \"willfulness\" in Thurston, circuit courts continue to add to the standard. ", " See Cooper v. Asplundh Tree Expert Co., 836 F.2d 1544, 1551 (10th Cir.1988) (willfulness in disparate treatment case requires finding that age was the \"predominant factor\" in employer's decision); Dreyer v. Arco Chem. ", "Co., 801 F.2d 651, 656-58 (3d Cir.1986) (finding of willfulness requires evidence of outrageous conduct by employer). ", " The district court here actually instructed the jury that in addition to finding a knowing or reckless violation of the ADEA, it must find \"that the Defendant engaged in outrageous conduct beyond mere violation of the [ADEA]\" in order to find willfulness. ", " This instruction undoubtedly was based on the Third Circuit's standard set out in Dreyer, the most stringent standard adopted by any circuit. ", " We believe it exceeds the Thurston standard, but no one complains here because the jury found that Lone Star's conduct was willful pursuant to this instruction. ", " Perhaps the evidence here was sufficient to meet the \"outrageousness\" standard. ", " As was discussed previously, Lone Star discharged Uffelman only nine months prior to the vesting of his pension benefits. ", " In Dreyer, the Third Circuit wrote that \"termination of an employee at a time that would deprive him or her of an imminent pension might show the 'outrageousness' of conduct that would warrant double damages.\" ", " Dreyer, 801 F.2d at 658. ", " Lone Star argues that, with nine months to go, the vesting of Uffelman's pension was not \"imminent\" as that word was used in Dreyer.

", "We knew when Columbus “sailed the ocean blue” and names of his ships, but little more about the marauding lout.", "\n\nWhich is too bad, because like America itself the pledge and back stories of its revisions are fascinating history, like:\n\n• The main purpose of the pledge was to sell magazines.", "\n\nSchoolchildren in Connecticut pledging their allegiance to the flag.

", "This was an especial problem on Minnesota’s Iron Range, which attracted hordes of immigrants at century’s turn.", "\n\nThe pledge rose out of late-19th-century turmoil. ", "A young America was reeling from a brutal civil war that, along with Emancipation, exposed a cavernous political divide that persists to this day.", "\n\nIndustrialization brought rapid workplace change and altered how Americans lived. ", "It also created a wealth of jobs that, along with free land and promised opportunity, attracted millions of immigrants. ", "Nearly all Iron Range residents were foreign-born; Central Minnesota was dominated by German émigrés and the Red River Valley by Scandinavians.", "\n\nBut it was the Civil War’s North-South split that inspired a group of Union veterans, the Grand Army of the Republic, to mount a campaign for an American flag in every school — itself divisive since the Stars and Stripes were flown by the Union North.", "\n\nThe effort was joined by a popular and self-promoting magazine, Youth’s Companion, that offered an American flag to new subscribers.

", "But all through its existence the pledge’s hallmark phrase, “one Nation indivisible,” has been defied by American reality.", "\n\nDespite his Christian grounding, Bellamy was among those untrusting of immigrants — “strangers” from distant lands with unfamiliar languages, habits and even food preferences. ", "He saw the pledge as one way to Americanize new arrivals.", "\n\nThat would be a daunting task on Minnesota’s remote Iron Range. ", "In 1900, wrote Marvin Lamppa in “Minnesota’s Iron Country,” the Range was inhabited by immigrants from 25 countries; by 1910, the foreign-born population north of Duluth was 88 percent from Finland (mostly), Eastern Europe, the U.K., Scandinavia and the Balkans.", "\n\nWhile Minnesota’s bounty of iron helped establish America as an industrial power, those who mined the ore were almost exclusively from elsewhere. ", "They grouped by ethnicity, often raising their own flag while practicing their cultural traditions. ", "Most refused to speak English (a huge challenge for crew bosses in the mines).", "\n\nWorry that immigrants may be vowing loyalty to their homeland while mouthing the pledge led to the first major amendment in 1924 when “my Flag” was changed to “the Flag of the United States of America.”", "\n\nCongress officially added “The Pledge of Allegiance” to the National Flag Code in 1942. ", "But a decade later when Congress again took up the pledge, it sparked a controversy that still simmers.", "\n\nIt was 1954. ", "The Soviet Union and U.S. taunted each other with nukes as schools practiced ways to mitigate effects of a nuclear strike while cities built fallout shelters. ", "Demagogue Sen. Joe McCarthy was ranting that communists had infiltrated American government.", "\n\nThe Knights of Columbus wanted “God” in the pledge to distinguish America from “the godless” communists. ", "With President Dwight Eisenhower’s eventual support, Congress added “under God” by voice vote.", "\n\nNot everyone agreed. ", "Bellamy’s descendants said he’d oppose the change because the words interrupted the pledge’s rhythmic cadence and, worse, they were divisive at the very point the pledge proclaimed an “indivisible” nation.", "\n\nAn ensuing debate came to a head in 2002 when a federal court panel ruled that “God” in the pledge was unconstitutional, but the case was later tossed by the U.S. Supreme Court on grounds that plaintiffs lacked standing. ", "The constitutionality of “under God” remains unsettled.", "\n\nEvery so often the pledge shows up on the political stage.", "\n\nPresident Ronald Reagan once recited the pledge in a nationwide broadcast on the Capitol steps, and he later argued at a religious conference that unlike rights granted by government, those “granted by God cannot be taken away.”", "\n\nMinnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura caused a row when he vetoed a bill requiring schoolkids to recite the pledge, and when Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis did the same, it touched off nasty acrimony in his 1988 presidential campaign against George H.W. Bush.", "\n\nNow then, it can be personally uplifting to recite the pledge and wave Old Glory, especially on national holidays. ", "If you object to “under God,” it’s OK to skip the words.", "\n\nBut has the pledge promoted a “one-nation” ideal? ", "After all, the pledge was written to help calm political turbulence — and, of course, to Americanize immigrants.", "\n\nSound familiar?", "\n\nAs then, today’s body politic is mired in a deep, unsettling divide, giving pause to a corollary: “United we stand, divided we fall.” ", "Too, the pledge’s “one nation under God” is seeing a slide in Christianity, especially among young adults, and spreading of religions that know another deity — or none at all.", "\n\nAnd, oh yes, about those “aliens,” more respectfully known as immigrants …\n\nRon Way lives in Edina." ]

", "Following the pomp, circumstance and 21-gun salute that are mandatory at such meetings, there was, it seems, a bit of a misunderstanding. ", "As Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez boarded the vessel, his beefy bodyguards tried to follow him up the gangplank. ", "They were stopped by their equally beefy Russian counterparts. ", "The Venezuelans, who presumably spoke no Russian, tried to push their way through. ", "The Russians, who presumably spoke no Spanish, fought back.", "\n\nIt was all over quickly. \"", "Everything is fine,\" a Russian official said afterward. ", "And indeed it was: The rest of Medvedev's visit to Latin America proceeded smoothly. ", "During his trip to Venezuela, Medvedev reportedly added a couple of passenger planes to the $4.4 billion worth of military hardware Russia has sold to Venezuela since 2005. ", "In Cuba, Medvedev met the ailing Fidel Castro and went sightseeing with his brother Raúl. ", "Yesterday, Russian ships began exercising in the Caribbean. ", "But more than weapons and armies were at stake in this visit. ", "As Chávez himself said a few months ago, the whole show was designed to send \"a message to the empire\": Russia is back, and it can play the imperial game as well as the United States can.", "\n\nAnd yet -- the lingering image of those thuggish bodyguards, shouting at one another in mutual incomprehension, remains weirdly appropriate. ", "For Medvedev was in Cuba and Venezuela last week in part because he wouldn't get that warm a welcome in Tbilisi or Kiev, let alone in Warsaw or Prague -- and also because Russian foreign policy is, at the moment, based on a strange paradox. ", "On one hand, the Russians have returned to the language, iconography and even historiography of imperialism. ", "With every passing year, the anniversary of the end of World War II -- and the moment of the Soviet Union's greatest imperial triumph -- is celebrated more elaborately. ", "Soviet songs and symbols are back; threats to deploy nuclear missiles are frequent; Russian leaders refer to themselves as \"global players.\"", "\n\nBut on the other hand, the Russian political system is uniquely unattractive in the one sphere of influence that Russians have always cared about most: Europe. ", "There are, it is true, Russian-speaking minorities across the eastern half of the continent who rely on Moscow for financing and political support. ", "There are also extremely powerful European business lobbies, notably in Italy and Germany, that can be counted on to praise Russia's leaders, whatever they do. ", "But the Russian political system -- based on crony capitalism, democratic rituals without democracy itself, heavy media controls, omnipresent criminality -- isn't of interest to anyone, and the Russians have trouble creating an empire around it. ", "During the Cold War, there were European (and American) communists who admired the Soviet Union and whose support really could be manipulated for Soviet ends. ", "By contrast, I'm not aware of a single popular movement in any European country, east or west, that is calling for a greater economic role for a Russian-style oligarchy, or more Russian thugs of the sort who were lurking on the gangplank of the Admiral Chabanenko last week.", "\n\nSome dictatorships to the east are more amenable, of course: Many Central Asian regimes do operate on something like a Russian model, some without the elaborate democratic facade. ", "But influence in those countries doesn't give the Russian ruling class the sense of importance it craves or the domestic legitimacy it needs to survive. ", "Hence Medvedev's need to travel somewhat farther afield. ", "Venezuela and Cuba may not be as significant as Germany or Georgia from the Russian perspective, but the image of Russians in Cuba evokes a certain nostalgia. ", "At the very least, it proves that Medvedev, like his Soviet predecessors, can play games in America's back yard.", "\n\nOne only hopes that President Barack Obama will have the good sense to ignore the whole affair, as President Bush has apparently done. ", "In fact, the best way for the United States to deal with this particular Russian escapade is to treat it as the public relations exercise it was designed to be. ", "Let Russian ships practice all they want in the Caribbean, let Russian and Venezuelan thugs fight it out on gangplanks, let Medvedev spend as much time with Chávez and the Castros as he desires: Their friendship won't last if oil prices stay low, anyway. ", "A Russian visit to Venezuela isn't a Cuban missile crisis, even if it is supposed to remind us of one -- just as Medvedev isn't Khrushchev and Castro isn't quite what he was 50 years ago.

[ "Hedgehog signaling pathway affects the sensitivity of hepatoma cells to drug therapy through the ABCC1 transporter.", "\nThe poor response to drug therapy often seen in hepatocellular carcinoma requires insight into the molecular interplay responsible for intrinsic or acquired drug resistance. ", "We previously demonstrated that the CD133-/EpCAM- subpopulation of the Huh-7 hepatoma cell line features aberrant activation of the hedgehog signaling (Hh) pathway and chemoresistance. ", "The prevailing hypothesis of the present study is that hedgehog signaling may govern expression of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, which are responsible for drug resistance in the CD133-/EpCAM- subpopulation. ", "Our aim is to reveal the molecular interplay in the mediation of drug resistance with a newly established Huh-7 subpopulation featuring high Hh signaling activity and drug resistance. ", "In this study, chemoresistance was determined in a newly established Huh-7-DN subpopulation featuring the CD133-/EpCAM- surface marker profile, aberrant expression of Hh pathway, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). ", "Expression of ABC transporter proteins (ABCB1, ABCC1, and ABCG2) and Hh transcription factor Gli-1/2 was evaluated with and without Hh signaling antagonists LDE225 or itraconazole. ", "We found that hedgehog signaling activity as determined by transfection with a Gli-Lux reporter cassette and gene expression levels tended to increase from Huh-7 CD133+/EpCAM+ to CD133-/EpCAM-, and the highest levels were found in Huh-7-DN cells. ", "The Huh-7-DN subpopulation exhibited characteristics of EMT as evidenced by increased expression of vimentin and loss of E-cadherin. ", "Sorafenib significantly inhibited the viability of all subpopulations except the Huh-7-DN subpopulation. ", "Compared with other sorafenib-sensitive subpopulations, the Huh-7-DN subpopulation showed enhanced expression of Hh transcription factor Gli-2 and ABCC1 transporter protein. ", "Silencing Gli-2 by lentivirus harboring shRNA against Gli-2 or LDE225 significantly suppressed expression of Gli-2 and ABCC1 genes in Huh-7-DN subpopulation. ", "In conclusion, aberrant hedgehog signaling activation is linked to poor differentiation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and chemoresistance in the Huh-7-DN subpopulation. ", "Hedgehog signaling transcription factor Gli-2 appears to be the primary regulator for drug sensitivity of hepatoma through the ABCC1 transporter." ]

[ "When 90-year-old Detroit Lions chairman and majority owner Martha Firestone Ford announced the dismissal of team president Tom Lewand and general manager Martin Mayhew in early November, an awestruck fan tweeted that Ford forgot to drop the mic like a performer might after a show of awesomeness before she walked off without taking a single question from reporters. ", "But Detroit being Detroit -- which is to say, a music city as well as the Motor City -- a rap-style video did drop within days along with other hurrahs from win-starved fans such as \"Martha Clay don't play.\"", "\n\nMartha Ford should have ended the statement with a mic drop #Lions — Christopher Burlew (@christophburlew) November 5, 2015\n\nFew people in any walk of life embark on a new career around their 90th birthday, but Ford, in fewer than two years on the job, has provided a blast of cold-eyed decision-making and blunt leadership for the Lions that is a dramatic departure from the management style of her late husband, William Clay Ford Sr., ", "who presided over one playoff win in the 50 years he owned the club. ", "Martha, whom he married in 1947, was there the whole time. ", "When Bill Sr. ", "died at 88 in March 2014, control of the team was passed to her.", "\n\nEvery significant move Ford has made so far, as well as her early reviews from other NFL owners, has been a riposte to those who reflexively underestimated her ability to handle the job.", "\n\nDespite an uptick since the firings, which occurred when the Lions were 1-7, Detroit is 6-9 and assured of its 13th losing season in the past 15 years. ", "And Ford -- a tiny, narrow-shouldered woman with an elegant bearing, impeccably coiffed hair and affection for her signature, saucer-sized sunglasses -- has left people fascinated to see what surprises she might spring next.", "\n\nWill second-year head coach Jim Caldwell be gone after dipping from 11-5 a year ago? ", "Will the team's next general manager be a familiar name, or will Ford roll the dice on a brilliant, up-and-coming talent instead?", "\n\nFord herself isn't saying publicly. ", "But unlike when she first took over, few question her daring or personal engagement with the job anymore. ", "Just a week before the front-office shakeup, Caldwell fired his offensive coordinator and offensive line coaches with Ford's blessing. ", "Now she is being commended for her boldness and pitch-perfect acknowledgment of the frustration Lions followers have been feeling for decades.", "\n\n\"You deserve better,\" she wrote in a letter to season-ticket holders after she cleaned house.", "\n\nFord sent a message that she wasn't going to be patient by firing general manager Martin Mayhew, left, and team president Tom Lewand, right, in the middle of the season. ", "AP Photo/Paul Sancya\n\nFord made a point to meet with the Lions players when they returned from their bye-week break. ", "She stood before them to take questions. ", "She said she wasn't giving up on the season, and she basically called out the team by re-setting expectations even higher.", "\n\n\"As I told the media last week and our players and coaches on Monday, we expect our team to improve, compete and win,\" Ford's letter said.", "\n\n\"Any time something like [this] happens, you're surprised -- not shocked, but surprised,\" Lions kicker Matt Prater said of the firings. \"", "But I think it just shows she's willing to do whatever it takes to win, which is what you want from your owner. ... ", "I've got a lot of respect for her.\"", "\n\nFord has remained highly averse to granting interviews, keeping her persona somewhat shrouded in mystery. ", "But if she succeeds in finally turning around the Lions by making the right hires this offseason -- and the Lions do have some pieces to rally around, starting with quarterback Matthew Stafford -- then Ford just may become as much of a football folk hero in Detroit as Barry Sanders and Billy Sims, Night Train Lane and Bobby Layne.", "\n\nShe would also be the most unlikely one.", "\n\n\"All I know is she wants to win -- now,\" said Ernie Accorsi, the former Baltimore Colts, Cleveland Browns and New York Giants general manager who was hired by the Lions in November to help Ford with her GM search. \"", "She wants this so badly.

", "She's tired of losing.\"", "\n\n\"She is impatient, and she should be,\" Giants co-owner and team president John Mara said. \"", "I know she has strong opinions about things, too.\"", "\n\nAccorsi compared Ford with the other great matriarchs in league history, Bears principal owner Virginia Halas McCaskey and the late Ann Mara, John's mother. \"", "All of them are elegant, tough-minded, smart, in-control women,\" he said. \"", "And feisty.\"", "\n\nWhile the Lions have played better after a 1-7 start, coach Jim Caldwell might be the next to go. ", "AP Photo/Carlos Osorio\n\nThe first time Accorsi met with Ford at her home last month to discuss the Lions' GM search, their conversation drifted toward how the club has played indoors dating to its days at the Pontiac Silverdome.", "\n\n\"I told her I think it tends to make teams soft when they don't play in the elements all the time,\" Accorsi said, \"and Mrs. Ford shot back, 'I couldn't agree with you more. ", "I've always thought the same thing.' \"", "\n\nFord's official bio on the Lions' website is only six paragraphs long, underplaying a full, fascinating life. ", "Her husband was Ford Motor Co. founder Henry Ford's last surviving grandson, and her grandfather was Harvey Firestone, founder of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company and a close friend of Henry Ford's.", "\n\nFord graduated from Vassar in 1946, a time when many women's college ambitions weren't supported. ", "Afterward, like many young ladies of her social standing, she set off for a grand tour of Europe and returned on the RMS Queen Elizabeth to New York City, where Bill met her at the dock as photographers snapped pictures. ", "When they married soon afterward, the society pages covered the wedding as a merger of two giant American industrial concerns as much as two iconic families.", "\n\nMartha's work life went beyond accompanying her husband to games after his deal to buy the Lions was approved Nov. 22, 1963 -- a celebration that turned sour when President Kennedy was assassinated later that day. ", "She has sat on the boards of numerous businesses and charities over the years as a serious-minded, hands-on contributor. ", "Not just a figurehead.", "\n\nStill, some local sports columnists have acted as if running the Lions was too big for her. ", "She has been implored to let son William Clay Ford Jr., executive chairman of the Ford Motor Co. and vice chairman of the Lions, run the franchise -- or, better yet, just sell the team outright.", "\n\nMartha Firestone Ford had other thoughts.", "\n\nThe first sign things were going to be different was when she elevated her three daughters to equal footing as Lions vice chairmen alongside Bill Jr., who had been attending NFL owners meetings in his father's stead for years. ", "According to league sources, Martha relied heavily on a recommendation from Sheila Ford Hamp, her second-eldest child, to end Lewand's two-decade run as team president last month and replace him with Rod Wood, a longtime family financial advisor.", "\n\nWilliam Clay Ford Jr. has become less involved with the Lions since his mother took control of the team. ", "AP Photo/Duane Burleson\n\nAny doubts about who was really running the show were put to rest in October when Bill Jr. appeared on Detroit radio station WJR. ", "In his only public comments to date about his mother's new role, 58-year-old Bill Jr. didn't dispute he'd been sidelined, saying, \"Since my dad died, I've been less involved with the Lions and the NFL. ", "She is very much in charge, and she's got the decision-making role.\"", "\n\nSaid Mara: \"I think her moves so far are her way of demonstrating to the fans she was not afraid to make those changes that she did, and she wants a new approach.\"", "\n\nNow it is Martha who attends the league meetings; it is Martha to whom Accorsi will present his short list of GM candidates; and it is Martha who calls the league office and commissioner Roger Goodell to protest blown calls, which she did when a Seahawks player batted a loose ball out of the end zone -- an illegal maneuver the refs missed -- to secure Seattle's Week 4 victory over the Lions.", "\n\n\"She gave them a piece of her mind,\" Caldwell told reporters.", "\n\nTo longtime Lions observers, the shift in tone is dramatic. ", "While her husband was widely eulogized last year as a lovely guy -- genial, generous, admirably devoted to the community during Detroit's long struggle for an economic recovery -- this was also noted: When it came to running the Lions, Bill Sr. ", "was patient to a fault.", "\n\nOver the years, he stuck with a succession of underperforming executives and coaches. ", "Despite only 31 wins during his seven-plus seasons as team president, Matt Millen wasn't removed until the Lions were three games into what would be the NFL's only 0-16 season. ", "And while regularly drafting high as a result of all the losing, the Lions struggled to rebuild. ", "There have been a few hits in recent drafts -- cornerback Darius Slay and defensive end Ezekiel Ansah are rising stars from the 2013 class -- but far too many misses. ", "Not a single pick from Mayhew's 2010 and '11 drafts remains on the roster.", "\n\nFord, seen here talking to Hall of Fame running back Barry Sanders, is a fixture on the Lions' sideline before games. ", "Tim Fuller/USA TODAY Sports\n\nWith the Lions, it's always something.", "\n\nEven Sanders, the franchise's greatest modern icon, rocked them by retiring via a fax to his hometown newspaper, the Wichita Eagle, at age 30. ", "A few years later, the Hall of Fame running back admitted the Lions' culture of losing accelerated his decision to call it quits.", "\n\nSo perhaps you can see why Ford's decision to ax her underperforming front office and insist on quicker results after the Lions had just suffered a 45-10 spanking by Kansas City in London was met with such joy.", "\n\n\"I might go buy a Ford today to celebrate,\" tweeted ex-Lions defensive end Lawrence Jackson.", "\n\n\"They are definitely going to hold everybody accountable,\" Lions receiver Lance Moore said. \"", "She's not scared to make tough decisions or tough personnel moves with anybody, obviously. ", "They've done it from the top down.\"", "\n\nOther NFL owners have the same take. ", "Ford's fearlessness and refusal to dither has their attention.", "\n\n\"It's a much, much more pressing responsibility to undertake when you become managing owner, and honestly, it's hard for anyone not to feel a little intimidated to be in such a large room with mostly men who have been there -- most of them -- a long time,\" Mara said.", "\n\n\"We all sit in the same seats every time at this big conference table. ", "She walked in there seamlessly and sat in the same spot the Lions have always sat, and it kind of seemed like she's been there for years. ", "I was impressed by that. ", "Everyone else was as well. ", "She made a great first impression. ", "Since then, she's been very engaged, asks a lot of questions and has showed she knows what is going on.\"", "\n\nPittsburgh Steelers co-owner and chairman Dan Rooney, via email, said his fellow owners' admiring takes on Ford's moves \"have nothing to do with her being a woman. ", "She's doing the job. ", "She was always interested in football. ", "But now she's involved.\"", "\n\nPlayers say Ford has proven she can make tough decisions, but she also throws off the feeling she's fighting right there with them.

[ "In general, turbochargers serve to improve the degree of efficiency of a combustion engine and thereby increase its output. ", "In such cases they feature a shaft that pivots in a housing of the turbocharger around a longitudinal axis and on which is arranged a turbine wheel and a compressor wheel. ", "In this arrangement the shaft is supported to allow it to rotate by means of two radial bearings. ", "Essentially, provision is normally made for at least one axial bearing because the exhaust gas flow impinging upon the turbine wheel produces strong axial forces that must be absorbed by means of the axial bearing.", "\nThe turbine wheel is driven by means of the exhaust gas flow of the internal combustion engine, with the compressor wheel also driven being driven here by means of the shaft. ", "Air from the outside is compressed by means of the compressor wheel and is fed with a corresponding pressure to the cylinders of the internal combustion engine.", "\nAs a result, high demands are imposed on the support of the shaft of the exhaust gas turbocharger. ", "The underlying reason for this is that the shaft can normally achieve very high rotational speeds of for example up to 300,000 revolutions per minute. ", "Because of the high rotational speeds, the rotating parts of the exhaust gas turbocharger must be balanced very accurately so that as little vibration as possible is produced. ", "In addition, the turbocharger and its bearings are subjected to high temperatures, for example by the hot exhaust gas.", "\nA part of the damage to the axial bearings and the radial bearings is caused by the delay in the oil supply to the turbocharger after a very quick starting of the engine under cold environmental conditions.", "\nFriction or roller bearings are used for example as bearings for the shafts. ", "These are however subjected to considerable wear in relation to the previously described loads. ", "The bearings and their lubrication are responsible for the majority of failures of turbochargers." ]

", "The study aims to demonstrate that changes in political and social organization over time, for which the archaeological record suggests different goals of land use and modes of production, register through dietary patterns that are reflected in isotopic data.

", "Distribution of the δ13 C and δ15 N values in collagen was interpreted in diachronic perspective, and with regard to lifetime shifts between childhood and adolescence. ", "Diachronically, isotope signatures indicate a clear decrease in δ15 N values accompanied by a small shift in δ13 C values between the Old Babylonian (c. 1800-1600 BCE) and the Neo-Assyrian (c. 850-600 BCE) subsets. ", "A major shift in δ13 C values occurred between the Early Islamic (c. 600-1200 CE) and Modern (c. 1800-1950) periods. ", "Ontogenetic changes only occur in a few individuals, but these suggest change of residence between childhood and adolescence. ", "The depletion in 15 N from the Neo-Assyrian period onwards is best explained in terms of a shift from intensive to extensive farming, triggered by the fall of regional city-states after the Old Babylonian period and the formation of large supra-regional polities in the Neo-Assyrian period and later. ", "The enrichment in 13 C during the Modern period was most likely the effect of more widely utilizing the dry steppes, abundant in C4 plants, as pasture." ]

Frank (\"Postmaster\") adopting the magistrate judge's finding of no discrimination on the basis of sex. ", " We affirm.", "\n\nFACTS AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY\n\n2\nCastillo was employed by the United States Postal Service as a letter carrier at the Downtown Station in Corpus Christi, Texas until her discharge on July 25, 1988. ", " On June 9, 1988, she told her immediate supervisor, Romera \"Homer\" Zuniga (\"Zuniga\") that she had been attacked by an unknown black man at a location on her delivery route. ", " Zuniga reported the incident to the police and postal inspectors, and then accompanied Castillo to a doctor who examined and released her. ", " Castillo was bruised on her right arm, but did not suffer any major or debilitating physical injuries.", "\n\n\n3\nWhile still at the doctor's office, Zuniga filled out portions of, and had Castillo complete and sign, a Federal Employee's Notice of Traumatic Injury and Claim for Continuation of Pay/Compensation and a Duty Status Report, certifying that Castillo had suffered an on-the-job injury and requested a continuation of pay and compensation for wage loss, if any.1 Castillo was also interviewed by postal inspectors within one hour of the alleged attack.", "\n\n\n4\nThe Postal Inspection Service began an investigation, but was unable to uncover a suspect or any witness to the incident, so the investigation was effectively closed. ", " Approximately a week later, the postal inspectors received an anonymous telephone call from an individual who, after being assured that this individual's identity would remain confidential, volunteered information that the alleged assault had not occurred in the manner or place indicated by Castillo, but rather that her injuries were the result of a domestic disturbance at the home of one of her customers.", "\n\n\n5\nBased on the information provided by the confidential informant, the postal inspectors reopened the investigation. ", " The postal inspectors again met with Castillo and offered her an opportunity to amend her account of the incident, which she declined to do. ", " The postal inspectors then proceeded to attempt to verify the information they received from the informant. ", " They visited the home of Elroy Chandler (\"Chandler\"), whose name and address they obtained from the informant. ", " Chandler told the postal inspectors that he had grabbed Castillo by the right arm, and he showed the inspectors how he did it.", "\n\n\n6\nThe results of the postal inspector's second investigation were reported in an Investigative Memorandum to the Postmaster in Corpus Christi. ", " Based on the information contained in the Investigative Memorandum, Zuniga took steps to have Castillo removed. ", " Castillo was issued a notice of removal on June 22, 1988, based on her fraudulent injury claim and improper conduct in violation of the U.S. Postal Service's Standards of Conduct.", "\n\n\n7\nCastillo unsuccessfully appealed her removal through the grievance-arbitration procedure contained in the applicable collective bargaining agreement. ", " The Arbitrator denied Castillo's grievance, finding that the Postal Service had met its burden of establishing good cause for the notice of removal or rather, that Castillo acted dishonestly in wilfully filing a fraudulent injury claim.", "\n\n\n8\nCastillo also filed an informal complaint of discrimination with the Postal Service, and later filed a formal complaint on August 26, 1988. ", " Both the informal and formal complaints were investigated, but settlement attempts proved unsuccessful. ", " On January 10, 1989 a Notice of Proposed Disposition was issued by the Postal Service proposing a finding of no discrimination. ", " In response to the notice, Castillo requested a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (\"ALJ\"). ", " At the conclusion of the evidentiary hearing, the ALJ issued a Recommended Decision recommending a finding of no discrimination on the basis of age and national origin, but an affirmative finding of discrimination on the basis of sex. ", " The ALJ further recommended reinstatement, appropriate back pay and benefits and attorneys' fees and costs. ", " However, on October 3, 1989 the Postal Service issued a final decision finding no discrimination on the basis of age, national origin, or sex.", "\n\n\n9\nOn October 31, 1989, Castillo filed a complaint in federal court against the Postmaster alleging that her termination was based on unlawful sex, national origin and age discrimination in violation of Title VII.2 On June 7, 1991, Castillo filed a motion to compel the identity of the confidential informant. ", " A magistrate judge heard argument and issued an order on July 2, 1991 granting Castillo's motion to compel. ", " On July 5, 1991, the district court issued an order referring the case to the magistrate judge as special master pursuant to FED.R.CIV.P. 53 and 42 U.S.C. Sec. ", "2000e-5(f)(5).", "\n\n\n10\nOn July 12, 1991, the Postmaster filed objections to the magistrate judge's July 1, 1991 disclosure order on the basis that the requested information concerning the confidential informant was privileged. ", " After hearing argument from the parties, the magistrate judge entered an order on August 26, 1991 overruling the Postmaster's objections and again ordered disclosure of the confidential informant's identity. ", " On September 5, 1991, the Postmaster renewed his objections to the magistrate judge's disclosure order of August 26, 1991.", "\n\n\n11\nThe district court issued an order on August 25, 1991 denying the Postmaster's objections without prejudice with leave to file authority establishing the court's authority to review a ruling by a magistrate judge acting as a special master on a non-dispositive motion. ", " After the Postmaster filed his authority, a hearing was held, at which time the district court requested an in camera review of the information concerning the confidential informant. ", " After receiving the sealed information, the court issued an order on June 3, 1993 denying the motion to compel on the basis that the identity of the confidential informant is privileged and exempt from discovery under Rule 26(b)(1), and setting aside the magistrate judge's July 2, 1991 disclosure order.3\n\n\n12\nThe case was tried before the magistrate judge on November 21-22, 1994. ", " In his Memorandum and Recommendations the magistrate judge concluded that there was insufficient credible evidence to prove disparate treatment of Castillo based upon her sex. ", " The magistrate judge found that Castillo \"failed to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the [Postmaster]'s reasons for her discharge or failure to settle her grievance were pretextual and/or were motivated by the unlawful consideration of her sex, rather than by valid labor and management reasons.\" ", " On March 6, 1995, the district court issued an order adopting the Memorandum and Recommendations of the magistrate judge, and final judgment was entered in favor of the Postmaster on March 8, 1995.", "\n\nDISTRICT COURT'S REVIEW OF DISCLOSURE ORDER\n\n13\nCastillo contends that after the district court referred the case to the magistrate judge, acting as a special master pursuant to FED.R.CIV.P. 53 and 42 U.S.C. Sec. ", "2000e-5(f)(5), the court lost its authority to review the magistrate judge's initial order granting Castillo's motion to compel the identity of the confidential informant.4 She argues that the district court had no authority to overrule the magistrate judge's disclosure order because the court did not reserve that right pursuant to Rule 53 by specifically limiting the special master's powers. ", " Castillo further argues that even if the court had jurisdiction and authority to review the magistrate judge's disclosure order, the court failed to make a finding that the magistrate judge's order was \"clearly erroneous or contrary to law\" in accordance with 28 U.S.C. Sec. ", "636(b)(1)(A).", "\n\n\n14\nOur construction of the statutes and procedural rules involved in the instant case5 leads us to the conclusion that the district court did have the authority to review the magistrate judge's ruling on Castillo's non-dispositive, pretrial motion to compel.
