as he could not foresee all emergences, he was unwilling to tie the hands of the Legislature. He observed that the late war could not have been carried on, had such a prohibition existed.

Mr. GHORUM. The power as far as it will be necessary or safe, is involved in that of borrowing.

Mr. MERCER was a friend to paper money, though in the present state & temper of America, he should neither propose nor approve of such a measure. He was consequently opposed to a prohibition of it altogether. It will stamp suspicion on the Government to deny it a discretion on this point. It was impolitic also to excite the opposition of all those who were friends to paper money. The people of property would be sure tobe on the side of the plan, and it was impolitic to purchase their further attachment with the loss of the opposite class of Citizens

Mr. ELSEWORTH thought this a favorable moment to shut and bar the door against paper money. The mischiefs of the various experiments which had been made, were now fresh in the public mind and had excited the disgust of all the respectable part of America. By witholding the power from the new Governt. more friends of influence would be gained to it than by almost any thing else. Paper money can in no case be necessary. Give the Government credit, and other resources will offer. The power may do harm, never good.

Mr. RANDOLPH, notwithstanding his antipathy to paper money, could not agree to strike


out the words, as he could not foresee all the occasions which might arise.

Mr. WILSON. It will have a most salutary influence on the credit of the U. States to remove the possibility of paper money. This expedient can never succeed whilst its mischiefs are remembered, and as long as it can be resorted to, it will be a bar to other resources.

Mr. BUTLER. remarked that paper was a legal tender in no Country in Europe. He was urgent for disarming the Government of such a power.

Mr. MASON was still averse to tying the hands of the Legislature altogether. If there was no example in Europe as just remarked, it might be observed on the other side, that there was none in which the Government was restrained onthis head.

Mr. READ, thought the words, if not struck out, would be as alarming as the mark of the Beast in Revelations.

Mr. LANGDON had rather reject the whole plan than retain the three words "(and emit bills")On the motion for striking out

The 85-year old Ruth Bader Ginsburg, appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court by President Bill Clinton in 1993, is approaching her 25th anniversary as a justice. She is historic in many respects: the second female to serve on the high court, the first Jewish female justice, and the longest-serving Jewish justice ever. Her record as a reliable liberal vote on the court, along with her well-publicized background as a trail-blazer for women’s rights, has made her an icon on the Left—celebrated as the “Notorious RBG” and featured in the recent film “On the Basis of Sex.”

Her ultimate legacy, however, may be that her stubborn—and, in hindsight, ill-considered—refusal to resign while President Obama was in office may allow the Left’s nemesis, President Donald Trump, to appoint her successor.

Trump will ditch US for Veterans Day because he can't have his parade

Since Trump's $92 million military parade in Washington, D.C., was canceled, he's decided to up and leave the country in November so he can watch a parade somewhere else.

Trump is abandoning veterans this Veterans Day to go to Paris to watch their military parade, he announced Friday morning on Twitter.

Continuing his habit of early morning tantrums, Trump blamed others for the exploding cost of the now-canceled military parade that had been scheduled for Nov. 10 in Washington, D.C.

SHANGHAI — A doctoral student has taken his Chinese university to court for withholding his degree over academic publishing requirements.

On Wednesday, Chai Lijie accused Shanghai University of setting “hard-to-achieve academic targets” for its doctoral students that make it difficult for them to graduate. According to the arguments presented at a Shanghai district court on Wednesday, Chai had finished all of his required coursework — from examinations to a dissertation and defense — by 2017. His dissertation committee had also recommended that Chai be awarded his doctorate.

However, the university’s School of Economics, where Chai was enrolled, said there was a problem: He hadn’t published enough articles in reputable academic journals to earn the degree.

The issue is one familiar to thousands of doctoral students at universities across China. “University administrationproblem, some schools like the elite Tsinghua University have scrapped publication requirements for doctoral students altogether.

Shanghai University’s School of Economics requires doctoral candidates to publish at least three articles in C-list journals. China’s law on academic degrees doesn’t specify any journal publication requirements for doctoral students, instead granting universities — not individual departments — the authority to establish their own graduation requirements.

Chai said his department didn’t grant him a degree because he had only published one academic paper in a C-list journal by the time he completed his coursework in 2017. He applied to receive his degree the following year, publishing no additional articles in the meantime, but his request was rejected by the secretary of the economics department. Chai has until the end of the year to

Bozeman,
Mt – A jury fined a 52-year-old homeless man $150 for fishing
without a license near his habitat at Manhattan, Montana.

Ernie
Tertelgte refused to identify himself when a game warden approached
him, and from there the situation deteriorated with every step of the
procedure of hauling him into court to answer the charge.

Because
he refused to cooperate, the fish and game warden called a local
police officer who attempted to de-escalate the situation, according
to his testimony, but to no avail.

Mr.
Tertelgte insists he is a English esquire, beholden to no King's law.
A magistrate charged him with obstructing an officer and resisting
arrest because he went limp when the officers applied the bracelets.
They had to carry him to the squad car.

When
his court date came, he made numerous outbursts. The judge had him
ejected, and hewas unable to cross-examine the witnesses who
appeared against him because he was confined to an adjacent room
where he was forced to watch the trial on video.

A
sampling of some of his actions included his refusal to stand when
the judge entered the room. He claimed that as an English Esquire,
he is beholden to no American judge.

"You
are trying to create a fictitious, fraudulent action." He
continued, "I am the living man, protected by natural law."
He then yelled, "Do not tell me to shut up! I am the living,
natural man, and my voice will be heard!"

Terteltge
then pointed at the flag and said, "That is the Jolly Roger,
that thing you call the American flag with the golf fringe around it
is the Jolly Roger, and you are acting as one of its privateers!"

Chris Petersen steps down after six seasons as Washington coach

Lorenzo Reyes | USA TODAY

Show Caption Hide Caption LSU still No. 1, while Alabama tumbles in coaches poll USA TODAY Sports' Paul Myerberg breaks down the latest Amway Coaches Poll.

In a stunning announcement, the Washington coach Chris Petersen will step down following the team’s bowl game and will assume “a leadership advisory role for Husky Athletics.”

Petersen coached the team for six seasons and led the Huskies to a pair of Pac-12 titles in 2016 and 2018, reaching the College Football Playoff in 2016. His 39 victories between the 2015 and 2018 seasons were most ever in school history during a four-year stretch.

That mark will be exceeded, if Washington wins its bowl game, which would give the team 40 victoriesfrom 2016-19.

"It has been a privilege and a professional dream fulfilled to be part of this world-class institution," Petersen said Monday in a statement. "I will forever be grateful, honored and humbled to have had the opportunity to coach our fine young men on Montlake for these past six seasons. I'll be a Husky for life, but now is the right time for me to step away from my head coaching duties, and recharge."

Washington athletics director Jennifer Cohen announced current defensive coordinator Jimmy Lake will take over as the new head coach for the Huskies.

Lake had served as a Husky assistant in 2004, but returned to the program for Petersen’s first season in Washington in 2014 as a defensive backs coach. He was then promoted to co-defensive coordinator in 2016 and eventually became the sole defensive coordinator in 2018.

Washington’s defense ranked first in the Pac-12 in total defense and scoring from 2015-18.

"I could not be more excited about taking over as head football coach at the University of Washington," Lake said.

IT WAS supposed to be easy.

Clark Moffatt would put in the work and study hard, and one day be rewarded with his dream job as a lawyer working in the America criminal justice system. But nearly a decade after graduating, he has yet to land a job in the profession

With a wife and two kids to support — and more than $230,000 in student debt — he made a desperate move which has, ironically, placed him in the courtroom, but in a role he didn’t wish to play.

Mr Moffatt is suing his law school, claiming it intentionally misled students and exaggerated postgraduation employment figures and future salary expectations.

It might sound like sour grapes but he is just the latest in a growing number of graduates in the USbigger afoot.”

And talking to other graduates from the San Diego university, he found out he wasn’t alone.

JOBLESS GRADUATES TURN ON UNIVERSITIES

It has been a rather tumultuous environment for the for-profit education sector in America as of late. Many for-profit schools have been accused of aggressively recruiting students with a focus on depositing their federally backed student loans rather than providing them with a quality education.

But with scores of graduates finding out their prospects aren’t as rosy as they were led to believe, many are fighting back.

A dozen similar law suits have been filed in recent years against universities including the University of San Francisco School of Law, New York Law School and the Florida Coastal School of Law.

While the sense of betrayal is felt among graduating students across


the country, as the Wall Street Journalpoints out, most of the suits have so far been unsuccessful.

It’s not just law students displaying a proclivity to pursue litigious retribution.

The Medieval Literature department at Harvard University, the Greek Studies department at the prestigious Cornell University and the Philosophy department at NYU have all been the target of class action lawsuits from hapless graduates.

New York woman Trina Thompson was one of the earlier graduates to sue her former school when she sought to have her $US72,000 tuition costs reimbursed in 2009 after her bachelor of business administration degree in information technology failed to get her employed.

At last he was asked to make a more dangerous voyage than he had ever
yet tried. Wise men thought there might be a short way for ships to sail
from Europe to Asia by going north of America. There were many icebergs,
to be sure, as well as seas all frozen over, but perhaps there was a
warm current running through the ocean. Captain Cook was so wise and

=The Little Colonel.= (Trade Mark.)

The scene of this story is laid in Kentucky. Its heroine is a small
girl, who is known as the LittleQuebec is distinct no more — when it comes to margarine. The province's cabinet agreed in late June 2008 that the time was right to change a 21-year-old law that forced margarine producers to colour their product white if they wanted to sell their wares in Quebec.

The move came a little more than three years after the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that the Quebec regulations were reasonable.

Quebec was the last jurisdiction in North America to force margarine producers to ensure that their product could not be confused with butter — at least when it came to colour.

Even Ontario repealed its Oleomargarine Act back in 1995. Until then, it was technically illegal for companies to make or sell margarine that was coloured yellow, making it look suspiciously like


butter. With that law on the books, no one had ever been charged with trafficking in butter-coloured margarine.

In Quebec, it was a different story. The dairy lobby made sure the law was enforced and even small batches of margarine in tiny grocery stores would be seized.

The battle over butter-coloured margarine was a long one. Until 1948, it was illegal to sell margarine of any colour in Canada. That year, the Supreme Court lifted a ban that had been in place since 1886, the same year the U.S. imposed a heavy tax on the non-dairy spread.

As part of the First World War effort, Canada temporarily lifted its ban on margarine from 1917 to 1923 because of dairy shortages during the war.

When the Supreme Court removed the ban permanently, Newfoundland,still a British colony, was churning out bootleg margarine for the Canadian market at about half the price of butter.

The Newfoundland Butter Company was established in 1925 and, despite the name, produced margarine exclusively. Food giant Unilever bought the company in 1937. Unilever had been producing margarine in Europe since 1878, when it was originally made from whale oil.

When Newfoundland joined Canada in 1949, the Newfoundland Butter Company earned a special mention in the Terms of Union. It would become Canada's first margarine manufacturer, and the name changed to the Newfoundland Margarine Company shortly afterwards. (Unilever closed the plant in March 2004 and moved the operation to Ontario.)

Margarine debate handed to provinces

On Oct. 16, 1950, the courts ruled that margarine laws were a provincial jurisdiction — and not


population from margarine until 1961. But margarine did manage to make its way to morning toast in the province. The dairy lobby, though, was determined to make sure that Quebecers would not be confused and buy margarine if they were really after butter.

The dairy lobby persuaded Premier Robert Bourassa to ban coloured margarine in 1987. At the time, most other provinces had either dropped their prohibition of butter-coloured margarine or had stopped enforcing laws against it.

Margarine companies fight back

Big Margarine went after Quebec's ban on coloured margarine. Unilever challenged the law on the basis that it violated the North American Free Trade Agreement and World Trade Organization rules. Unilever claimed that being forced to make two types of margarine — colourless for Quebec and coloured for the restof Canada — meant a million-dollar hit for the company's bottom line.

In 1997, Unilever declared war on the ban. In November, the company imported 480 containers of yellow margarine it had manufactured in the U.S. and delivered them to a retail distributor in Quebec.

On Nov. 24, 1997, the government responded. It sent in inspectors from the Ministère de l'Agriculture, des Pêcheries et de l'Alimentation. They seized 384 containers of the offending product. Outraged, Unilever went to Superior Court to have the seizures quashed. It also asked the court to declare the law banning coloured margarine "null, unconstitutional, invalid, inoperable, unreasonable and contrary to Canadian federalism."

The court mulled over the case and ruled in 1999 that the law was valid, although the judge did concede that the ban violates


interprovincial trade rules.

The Quebec Court of Appeal upheld the ruling in 2003. A year later the Supreme Court of Canada agreed to hear the butter battle.

On March 17, 2005 Unilever lawyer Gerald Tremblay argued that Quebec's ban on coloured margarine was unreasonable, contrary to the rules of federalism, violates charter guarantees of freedom of expression, and is contrary to North American and world trade rules.

The justices let Tremblay go on for an hour. They refused to hear arguments from lawyers for the government of Quebec, and Quebec Dairy Producers.

Quebec's law stands, they ruled, until the province decides to change it.

The province's dairy lobby says the law's not needed anymore and it has no plans to fight the government's decision to allow Quebecers access to yellow margarine. Quebecers, aand offered his support. During the 2016 Republican primaries, King backed Cruz, and was co-chair of his Iowa campaign. Cruz's campaign spokeswoman said he did make a "personal call" to King, and he reiterated what he told reporters in Texas earlier in the day — that King's comments have been "disappointing" and he's "saying and doing things that are dividing us, that are pulling us apart." Cruz's campaign did not outright condemn King's statements or actions.

King was adamant with Bloomberg that his re-election is not in trouble, scoffing at a poll that has him just 1 point ahead of his Democratic challenger, J.D. Scholten, saying he has an internal poll giving him an 18-point advantage. He applauded President Trump for saying he'll do away with birthright citizenship, and

did all these things go wrong? Simply put—and this is the main thesis of my latest book, The Battle for the Soul of Capitalism—what went wrong in corporate America, aided and abetted by investment America, was a pathological mutation in capitalism—from traditional owners’ capitalism, where the rewards of investing went primarily to those who put up the capital and took the risks—to a new and virulent managers’ capitalism, where an excessive share of the rewards of capital investment went to corporate managers and financial intermediaries.

There were two major reasons for this baneful change: First, the “ownership society”—in which the shares of our corporations were held almost entirely by direct stockholders—gradually lost its heft and its effectiveness. It is not going to return. In its stead, a new “agencyand accept the momentary precision of stock prices rather than the eternal vagueness of intrinsic corporate value as the talisman of investment reality.”

The Real Market and the Expectations Market

Perhaps this distinction between the Real Market and the Expectations Market was best expressed by Roger Martin, dean of the Rotman School of Business at the University of Toronto. Just think about it: In the Real Market of business, real companies spend real money and hire real people and invest in real capital equipment, to make real products and provide real services. If they compete with real skill, they earn real profits, out of which they pay real dividends. But to do so demands real strategy, real determination, and real capital expenditures, to say nothing of requiring real innovation and

Mike Fayette broke the rules. An engineer at the New York State Transportation Department, he gave an interview to a reporter from The Adirondack Daily Enterprise.

In the interview, Mr. Fayette praised Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo and the transportation workers who had labored to repair roads and bridges washed out by Tropical Storm Irene in 2011. No matter. His supervisors said he had not been authorized to speak to the press, and they moved to fire him; he retired instead and left in February.

The story might have ended there — strange but small — but for the Cuomo administration’s reaction to an article about it that appeared on Wednesday in The Daily Enterprise.

Mars Surveyor 2001 Lander

The NASA Mars Surveyor 2001 Lander was a planned Mars probe which was canceled in May 2000 in the wake of the failures of the Mars Climate Orbiter and Mars Polar Lander missions in late 1999. The Lander was a component of the Mars Surveyor 2001 project, and its companion spacecraft Mars Surveyor 2001 Orbiter, renamed 2001 Mars Odyssey, was launched and went into orbit about Mars on October 24, 2001.

The 2001 Surveyor lander spacecraft was built under contract to NASA by the Lockheed Martin corporation.  Except for the solar arrays, the basic lander design is identical to that of the Mars Polar Lander, which had been intended to be the first of a series of low-cost "Mars Surveyor" landers sent to Mars. longer than in previous years.

The three UN agencies noted that the dry season, beginning now, could bring additional hardship to people facing the most severe levels of hunger. Those displaced in conflict-affected Unity State, who have been living on fish and water lilies to survive, are running out of their only remaining sources of food as the floods recede.

Livestock raiding has robbed many people of essential animal products like milk, which were their main means of survival during last year’s lean season. Unless humanitarian assistance can reliably reach them during the dry season, they face catastrophe in the coming months.

For this reason, the agencies are calling for a speedy implementation of the peace agreement signed last year, and for unrestricted access to conflict areas to deliver much needed


rolls of duct tape, ammunition for a .44 Magnum handgun, a folding lock-blade hunting knife and camouflage hunting gloves at retail stores in or around Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. He then drove to the neighborhood where his cousin, Travis Rohrer, lived with his wife, Christine Rohrer. Appellant loitered in the neighborhood, waiting for Christine's arrival home from work. At approximately 5:45 p.m. that evening, Appellant saw Christine Rohrer's Jeep in the driveway of the duplex where she and her husband resided. Appellant parked his vehicle a block away and proceeded on foot to the Rohrer residence carrying two rolls of duct tape, the gloves, hunting knife, and the ammunition for the handgun he knew that his cousin Travis Rohrer owned. Appellant gained entry into the Rohrer residence by feigning cartrouble to Christine and asked to use the telephone to obtain assistance. Appellant indicated to Christine that the car trouble may have been the result of a malfunctioning car battery. Mrs. Rohrer then indicated that she could assist Appellant but first needed to change clothes. Once Mrs. Rohrer was upstairs, Appellant went to her room and began binding Christine Rohrer's arms and mouth with the duct tape. Appellant went downstairs to retrieve something, and on his return upstairs, Appellant broke through the door which Christine Rohrer managed to lock in his absence. Appellant wrestled with Christine Rohrer for a time and then bound her arms to the bed frame, covered her eyes and mouth with the duct tape, leaving her nostrils exposed and bound her legs with the


tape. He unbound her legs and raped Christine Rohrer. Appellant left the bedroom, smoked a cigarette in another room and then re-entered the bedroom where he repeatedly stabbed Christine Rohrer in the chest, neck and torso. She died as a result of the injuries inflicted.
Travis Rohrer returned home at about 8 p.m. that evening and found Appellant on the second floor brandishing both the handgun and the knife. Appellant forced Travis Rohrer into the bedroom, where Christine Rohrer's body was covered with the bedclothes. Appellant pistol-whipped Travis Rohrer before ordering him to the ground. Appellant then stabbed Travis Rohrer several times in the back. A scuffle ensued, during which both Appellant and Travis Rohrer struggled for control of the handgun. Appellant wrested the gun free and shot TravisRohrer once in the arm and once in the ribcage before going downstairs. Travis Rohrer survived the assault.
With the keys to Christine Rohrer's Jeep in hand, Appellant exited the Rohrer residence only to come upon Deborah Hock and her fiancee, James Gilliam, who lived in the other half of the duplex where Christine and Travis Rohrer lived. Appellant raised the handgun and fatally shot *407 Gilliam in the chest. Appellant turned the weapon on the prone Deborah Hock and fired at her. The shot missed Hock, but the muzzle blast left her with powder burns on her hand and wrist. Appellant left the scene in Christine Rohrer's Jeep and drove through the countryside for a few hours before returning to Chambersburg. Appellant then called his girlfriend from a


pay phone. Afterwards, he surreptitiously entered his parents' home, the place where he had been residing. Chambersburg police eventually tracked Appellant to his parent's house and, on November 4, 1998, took Appellant into custody.
Following his arrest, Appellant underwent multiple rounds of medical and psychological testing. On August 16, 2000, following written and oral on-the-record colloquies, the trial court accepted Appellant's guilty pleas to: first-degree murder of Christine Rohrer; murder generally in the death of James Gilliam; two counts of criminal attempt to commit homicide; criminal trespass; rape; and theft. The trial court conducted a degree of guilt hearing on September 19, 2000, at which the court found Appellant guilty of first-degree murder in the killing of James Gilliam.
A jury was impaneled for the penalty phase proceedings.[7] Following sixincarceration for the two counts of criminal attempt to commit homicide; 10 to 20 years of incarceration for the rape conviction; and 36 to 84 months of incarceration for the criminal trespass and theft convictions.
Appellant's trial counsel filed a petition to withdraw on June 11, 2001. Appellant's current appellate counsel was appointed that same day, and on June 29, 2001, Appellant filed Post-Sentence Motions raising, inter alia, ineffective assistance of counsel claims, a motion to withdraw the guilty pleas and a motion for a new trial based on the assertion that the jury's finding that the aggravating circumstances outweighed the mitigating circumstances in the killing of Christine Rohrer was against the weight of the evidence.

Dr Sadik has written extensively on family planning and health.

A country's ability to feed itself very much depends on three factors: availability of arable land, accessible water and population pressures. The more people there are, especially in poor countries with limited amounts of land and water, the fewer resources there are to meet basic needs. If basic needs cannot be met, development stalls and economies begin to unravel. In some poor countries, attempts to increase food production and consumption are undermined by rapid population growth;


migration from rural to urban areas; unequal land distribution; shrinking landholdings; deepening rural poverty; and widespread land degradation. Lower birth rates, along with better management of land and water resources, are necessary to avert chronic food shortages.

The demographic picture

Not long ago, in 1984, it seemed as if the rate of population growth was slowing everywhere except in Africa and parts of southern Asia. Today, the situation looks less promising since progress made toward reducing birth rates has been slower than expected. The world's population, now 5300 million, is increasing by approximately 250 000 people every day. It is estimated that 1 000 million people will be born during this decade. Over the next ten years, the population of the industrialized world will grow by 56 million, while thenumber of people living in developing countries will expand to over 900 million (United Nations Population Division, 1989; UNFPA, 1989). By and large, the biggest increases will occur in the poorest countries - those societies least equipped to meet the needs of the new arrivals and invest in their future.

Meeting food needs

Worldwide, enough food is produced to feed everyone, yet this food and the technology to produce it do not always reach those in need. As a result of food deficits, nearly 1 000 million people do not get enough to eat and over 400 million are chronically malnourished. Every year 11 million children under the age of five die from hunger or hunger-related diseases (Lean, Hinrichsen and Markham, 1990).

In recent decades there has been impressive growth in


food production, which has been attributed to the development of improved, disease-resistant varieties of staple crops; the increased use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides; and the expansion of irrigated cropland. Nevertheless, per caput food production actually declined in 51 developing countries while rising in only 43 between 1979-1981 and 1986-1987. Among the African countries, 25 experienced a drop in per caput cereal production. In Latin America, production was also disappointing: 17 countries suffered a decline (UNFPA, 1990). In Asia, food production has managed to keep slightly ahead of population growth largely because of new breeds of Asian rice and the use of tremendous amounts of agricultural chemicals. However, in some areas losses from poor land management have erased the benefits which had been gained (Repetto et al., 1989).Consequently, developing countries' food imports are rising dramatically to compensate for local deficits.

UNFPA'S INITIATIVE FOR THE 1990S To confront the immense population and resource challenges facing humanity, the United Nations Fund for Population Activities has launched a major initiative for the 1990s.1 The purpose of this effort is outlined in the Amsterdam Declaration which calls for the following goals to be achieved by the year 2000: [1 The Amsterdam Forum on Population in the Twenty-first Century was held in November 1989. A result of this forum was the Amsterdam Declaration which calls for annual funding of US$9000 million for population and family planning programmes by the end of this decade and the linking of population concerns with overall development objectives.] · increase the number of couples practising contraception


Tensions between the United States and Russia over Venezuela are threatening to boil over.

The White House on Friday warned Russia, along with other countries supporting Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, against sending military forces and equipment to the crisis-stricken nation.

Washington — which supports opposition party leader Juan Guaidó — would view the move as a "direct threat to security in the region," according to national security adviser John Bolton.

"We strongly caution actors external to the Western Hemisphere against deploying military assets to Venezuela, or elsewhere in the Hemisphere, with the intent of establishing or expanding military operations," Bolton said.

"We will consider such provocative actions as a direct threat to international peace and security in the region. We will continue to defend and protect the interests of the United States,and those of our partners in the Western Hemisphere," he said.

Bolton’s declaration is the second such warning this week, after Moscow on March 23 sent military "specialists" to the South American nation.

Multiple media outlets reported that two Russian planes with military advisers and as many as 100 troops landed in Venezuela.

Moscow downplayed the significance, and Russian spokespeople have said the advisers and supplies were part of a military cooperation agreement with Venezuela.

"The Russian side clearly stated the purpose of the arrival of its specialists to Caracas. This is not about any 'military contingents,'" Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in a statement Saturday.

"Thus, the speculations about the conduct of certain 'military operations' by Russia in Venezuela are absolutely groundless," she added.

But administration officials aren’t buying it.

"Past administrations allowed this tohappen," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. "I’ve inherited a mess between North Korea, and all of the problems we have all over the world, the entire Middle East and Venezuela. ... But I’ll fix it.”

Russia, in turn, said Thursday that the specialists don't pose a threat and defended its arms trade with Venezuela. Russia also promised to keep its military advisers there as long as Maduro deemed it necessary.

The United States and more than 50 other countries have recognized Guaidó, who in January declared himself president of Venezuela, as the country's rightful leader. But Maduro continues to cling to power, bolstered by support from the country’s elites and military as well as nations such as Russia and China.

House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Eliot Engel EliotIn his semi-annual marathon question-and-answer session with the Russian people today, President Vladimir Putin spent nearly four hours assuring callers that the Russian economy would rebound from its current low point. The Russian people, he said, should view the punishing international sanctions currently imposed on the country as an opportunity to strengthen domestic production in sectors that were neglected in the past.

Unsurprisingly, Putin also continued to insist – despite what multiple international groups say is overwhelming evidence to the contrary – that there are no Russian troops in Ukraine. In fact, he called war between Russia and Ukraine an impossibility.

The real reason for the sanctions, he said, is a U.S.-led effort to “contain” Russia. He further criticized the U.S. for, as he put it, not wanting alliances with other nations, but preferring to turn them into “vassals.”

The president also answered some rather offbeat questions. One woman asked him if he hopes one day to be the head of the United Nations, to which he replied that he did not. Another caller asked if Putin would like to have a clone of himself, so that there would be more public officials the people could trust. He declined that as well.

He was asked toto Gov. Rick Perry, who faced reelection in 2006.

The Texas Restoration Project used the money to host thousands of pastors and their spouses at six “Pastors’ Policy Briefings” in 2005. At the time, Perry faced possible intra-party challenges from other Republicans in the state. It’s TFN’s belief that the events were designed to boost Perry’s fortunes. He was the only candidate invited to speak at all six events. After Perry’s reelection, the Texas Restoration Project held an event celebrating his inauguration, so the group was hardly neutral.

This pattern is being duplicated in other states. Organizations similar to the Texas Restoration Project were formed in Iowa and South Carolina and hosted speeches by Mike Huckabee. It does not appear that any other candidates were invited to speak.

Boy, four, killed by a stray bullet 'fired by neighbour' as child fished with his father

A four-year-old boy who was fatally shot while fishing with his father was struck in the head by an errant bullet, a sheriff and a family friend said.

Wells County Sheriff Monte Fisher said on Sunday that Jacob Michuda was shot in the head late Friday night while he and his father were fishing from a pier at a pond outside Ossian, a rural community about 15 miles south of Fort Wayne.

Family friend Trisha Ulmer said Jacob's the boy's mother told her the boy was shot in the temple.

'Little angel': Jacob Michuda, who was shot dead on Friday, loved fishing and being outdoors

Mr Fisher said an autopsy was performed Saturday.

Forty-six-year-old nextdoor neighbour Bruce Pond was being held without bond on a preliminary charge of reckless homicide and is due to appear in court Monday.

Fisher alleged that alcohol was involved.

He said Pond apparently shot at a light on the pier where the father and son were fishing.

Miss Ulmer said: 'I think it was just a freak accident,'

Police and medics were called to the scene at 11.07pm on Friday, the Associated Press reports.

Police said an ambulance took the boy to a hospital in Fort Wayne, where he was pronounced dead at 3.12am Saturday.

Police arrested Pond later that day.]

preliminary charge of reckless homicide

The shooting was the latest in a recent string of children's death from gunshots across Indiana.

It came just one day after a four-year-old boy from Cedar Lake, in northwest Indiana's Lake County, accidentally shot himself at a suburban Chicago liquor store.

Two other Indiana boys also have died from gunshots in the past month.

A two-year-old Connersville boy died July 14 after accidentally being shot by his 5-year-old brother, and a 6-year-old boy died June 30 after being shot in the head with a .22-caliber gun at his family's home near Martinsville.

The Martinsville boy's 11-year-old brother faces juvenile charges of murder and reckless homicide in that shooting.

Miss Ulmer, who said she had knownJacob Michuda since he was born, described him as an 'angel.'

'He was always smiling. He was an angel,' she said.

'He was a perfect little boy. He was so tender-hearted and loving.'

Miss Ulmer added that Jake, who was from nearby Bluffton, loved to fish and spend time outdoors and frequently fished at the Ossian pond with his father.

years in prison for robbing a Waterloo convenience store. In a telephone interview, Mr. Marshall told me the bill not only restores to judges more leeway in sentencing, but it also allows for the convicted to be sent to prisons closer to their homes, preserving family ties.

Mr. Marshall believes intact families are the key to keeping people from returning to prison. One out of 28 children has a parent or relative in prison, he says, but that in the black community, it is one out of nine.

Mr. Marshall is now pastor of a church in Waterloo, Iowa. The church sits across the street from the store he robbed. It is a daily reminder, MR. Marshall says, of his deed and how far he's come. He supports the billAbout 12 years ago, Joe Lieberman was a fairly ridiculous Democratic presidential candidate, who was routinely booed in debates, and whose support for a Bush/Cheney-approach to foreign policy put him wildly out of step with the party. The Connecticut senator figured his only credible shot at the nomination would come from a strong showing in New Hampshire.

Lieberman failed miserably, getting about 8% of the vote, and coming in a distant fifth. But the senator was so eager to characterize the results as good news, he came up with one of the funniest attempts at political spin in my lifetime. “Thanks to the people of New Hampshire,” Lieberman told supporters , “we are in a three-way split decision … for third place!”

His girlfriend, Jen Weaver played a critical part in making this a forever match.

"My mom wasn't ready to adopt another dog yet, so that's where Jen came in," said Josh.

Jen added, "I came home from school one weekend, and met her and played with her for a couple of hours the first time, and I fell in love with her. I was like I have to."

Four years later Ashlyn and her forever family are inseparable.

even buried in a plot owned by her grandparents at Mother of God. But what of her parents? I knew very little.

My search took me over to the Kenton County Library to research many clues I had from scanning their data base online. But I had no idea how interesting it was all going to be.Anna's parents were Charles (Karl) Moser and Francisca Wocker. I've now found "Wocker" spelled six different ways in documents. Charles Moser and Francisca "Wacker" (an example of the multiple spellings) were married August 8, 1867 at Holy Trinity Church in Cincinnati. They moved to Kentucky early on where Charles' occupation was most often listed as "cabinet maker."

The majority of their married life, they lived in this home at 218 W. 6th Street inCovington. It was a two-family and they lived in the unit pictured on the right. It is located just down the street from Mother of God Church. Interestingly, Anna's maternal grandparents, Frederick and Catharine Wocker lived right next door at 216 W. 6th Street.

It appears as if all was not well in the Moser household. Anna's mother, Francisca, died at the age of 39 years old. I was able to find a Death Certificate that listed her cause of death on July 14, 1885 as "cirrhosis of the liver." Note that her last two children really didn't survive very long.

Charles remarried and Anna now had a stepmother, Elizabeth. Note that Anna was the only girl among her siblings, and according to Aunt Evelyn, all was not well. Anna's


After two nights in the Ramsey County jail, St. Paul City Council candidate David Martinez was released Wednesday without being charged.

The 38-year-old was arrested Monday for probable cause of nonconsensual dissemination of private sexual images after a seminude photo of his estranged wife appeared on his campaign website.

The Ramsey County Attorney’s Office issued a statement Wednesday saying there was little it could disclose about the active case.

“We are working with law enforcement on this case and have requested additional investigation to inform our charging decision,” said county attorney spokesman Dennis Gerhardstein.

Martinez is running against Shirley Erstad and Mitra Jalali Nelson for the open Fourth Ward council seat. He has said that his website — which has since been taken down — was hacked, and that he will notdrop out of the race, despite calls from his opponents and Mayor Melvin Carter that he do so.

Election Day is Aug. 14. A candidate forum planned for Wednesday evening at the University of St. Thomas was canceled Tuesday, after Martinez said publicly that he would continue his campaign for the council seat.

Martinez could not be reached for comment.

Martinez’s arrest Monday was his second in less than two weeks. On July 5, he was arrested at George Latimer Central Library in downtown St. Paul and cited for disorderly conduct.

The next day, he was banned from Target Field for a year after scuffling with security officers.

Saint Patrick's Day celebrations in the United Stated revolve around one thing: lots of green booze. In working with a recipe developer for a St. Patrick's Day beverage, we both wanted to steer clear of the common green beer and food coloring based cocktails. The result was a beautiful green sangria. Here is more on how I created this subtly St. Patrick's Day themed shot.

So the theme for this recipe was a St. Patrick's Day cocktail that wasn't green beer. The recipe was designed for the person who wanted to partake in a St. Patrick's Day party, but wanted something a little more sophisticated than green food coloring added to a pint of beer or mixed into a vodka tonic.

The heart is the center of a person's circulatory system. It includes an electro-mechanical system performing two major pumping functions. The left portions of the heart draw oxygenated blood from the lungs and pump it to the organs of the body to provide the organs with their metabolic needs for oxygen. The right portions of the heart draw deoxygenated blood from the body organs and pump it to the lungs where the blood gets oxygenated. These pumping functions are accomplished by cyclic contractions of the myocardium (heart muscles). In a normal heart, the sinoatrial node generates electrical impulses, called action potentials, at a normal sinus rate. The electrical impulses propagate through an electrical conduction system to various regions of the heart to excite the myocardial tissues of theseThe Coast Guard has been conducting aærescue effortænear Unalaska Island in the Aleutian Island chain for 10 people who were aboard a Coast Guard helicopter.

I would hope that the two countries will come to an agreement by the end of January."

The pause was announced by Kim in letters to the finance ministers of India and Pakistan and emphasized that the Bank was acting to safeguard the Treaty.

Click here to view an archive of the hockey urban legends featured so far.

HOCKEY URBAN LEGEND: Eric Lindros was once traded to two different teams at the same time.

Going into the 1991 NHL Entry Draft, 18-year-old Eric Lindros was one of the most hyped prospects in the history of the National Hockey League, drawing comparisons to such legendary prospects as Mario Lemieux and Wayne Gretzky.

What made Lindros stand out from most other skilled forward prospects was his imposing physicality – as an 18-year-old he was already able to brutalize men much older than he (typically, that sort of ability comes to a player as he grows older


and fills out his physique) on TOP of his abilities as a scorer.

So Lindros was the obvious pick for the #1 overall draft pick in the 1991 NHL Entry Draft.

The only problem was WHO held the draft pick.

The Quebec Nordiques were not exactly a marquee NFL franchise, and when you couple in the fact that players on the Nordiques could expect to hear a lot of French spoken, Lindros did not want to play for the Nordiques and he informed them that they he would NOT play for them if they drafted him (the next three draft picks were owned by teams from the United States – the San Jose Sharks, New Jersey Devils and the New York Islanders).

The Nordiques called his bluff and picked him anyways.

True tohis word, though, Lindros refused to sign with them and went back to the Canadian Hockey League in 1992 (and played for Team Canada in the 1992 Olympics – remember, this guy was that good).

By the next year, the Nordiques relaxed a bit on their initial pledge to never let him go if he would not sign with them (you would have to presume that the NHL as a whole probably flexed a little muscle on the Nordique ownership to just trade the guy already).

For a player of this stature and youth, teams all over the NHL were lining up to throw loads of marquee names, draft picks and money at the Nordiques. And the Nordiques were ready to deal…but perhaps TOO ready, as you’ll soon find out!
On


the night before the 1992 NHL Entry Draft, the Nordiques agreed to a deal with the Philadelphia Flyers for the following players:

However, a few hours after the deal, the New York Rangers upped their last offer to the Nordiques to make it:

Forwards Alexei Kovalev and Tony Amonte, Center Doug Weight, Goalie John Vanbiesbrouck (since Vanbiesbrouck was a certain type of restricted free agent, the Nordiques might not have been able to sign him, so the Rangers agreed to throw in Defenseman James Patrick if the Nordiques could not sign Vanbiesbrouck), plus #1 picks in the 1993, 1994 AND 1995 NHL Drafts.

The Rangers would also pay them $12 million.

While Peter Forsberg was the best player in any of the offers, the Rangers offer (at the time, at least) seemedclearly to be the better offer, so the Nordiques quickly accepted it.

Yep, they traded Lindros to TWO different teams!!

Of course, the whole thing went to arbitration, and in the end, league arbitrator Larry Bertuzzi (who was the grand-uncle of NHL player Todd Bertuzzi) awarded the Flyers Lindros as, after all, their deal WAS done first.

However, due to the fact that it took almost two weeks for Bertuzzi to make his ruling, the 1992 Draft had obviously come and gone, so the Flyers had to substitute a 1994 Draft pick and minor leaguer Chris Simon (who would go on to have a strong career in the NHL while the player the Flyers took with the #7 pick in 1992, Ryan Sittler, did not).

The deal ended up forming the backbone


of the Colorado Avalanche (the team name of the Nordiques once they moved to Colorado in 1995 – so Lindros would only have had to deal with Quebec for four years had he just accepted the original drafting)’s two Stanley Cup victories in 1996 and 2001, as the 1993 draft pick from the Flyers turned into Goalie Jocelyn Thibault, who, in turn, turned into Goalie Patrick Roy (winner of the 2001 Conn Smythe Trophy – the award given to the best player in the playoffs – in the Avalanche’s race to the Cup) and Peter Forsberg was one of the team’s very best player for years.

Lindros had a good career for the Flyers, taking them to the Stanley Cup Finals in 1997 (where they lost to the DetroitRed Wings).

However, the very physical play that made him so unique also took its toll on him via injuries.

Ultimately, due to squabbling with management, Lindros was put on the trade block in the 2001 NHL offseason (the same year that the Avalanche had their second Cup). The Flyers ended up dealing him to none other than the New York Rangers!

Lindros played well for the Rangers, but again, the injuries from his physical style of play kept mounting up (especially the concussions) and when the Rangers let him go prior to the 2004-05 season (which ended up getting wiped out by the lockout), a couple of doctors thought he should just retire.

Lindros played for two more teams, the Toronto Maple Leafs in 2005-06 and the Dallas Stars in 2006-07,

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Bush said today that Congress is blocking his proposals to deal with high gas prices and dragging its feet on other issues to address the nation's sagging economy.

President BushHe said he was open to any idea in terms of energy, including a proposal backed by John McCain and Hillary Clinton to suspend gas and diesel taxes this summer.

But, he said, he favored longer-term fixes, such as encouraging new oil production in the United States and the building of new refineries.

"It's a tough time for our economy," Bush said at a Rose Garden press conference. "Across our country, many Americans are understandably anxious about issues affecting their pocketbook, from gas and food prices to mortgage and tuitionthe government discontinue adding to the nation's Strategic Petroleum Reserve supply while oil prices are so high. "If I thought it would affect the price of oil significantly, I would seriously consider it," he said of an idea embraced by many Democrats and some Republicans.

Bush also said that it was important to keep filling the reserve, in underground salt domes in Texas and Louisiana, in case there is a terror attack on the nation's oil supplies. He also once again called for Congress to permit drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, a proposal he has made repeatedly since he first took office in 2001, and to pave the way for the building of new refineries.

"Another reason for high gas prices is the lack of refining capacity. It's

DB11 VOLANTE: RETURN OF THE ULTIMATE CONVERTIBLE SPORTS GT

3 October 2017, New York: The most elegant of convertible Aston Martins begins a new chapter with the introduction of the eagerly-awaited DB11 Volante. Joining the DB11 Coupe, which was launched to wide acclaim last year, the new DB11 Volante sets new standards of performance, innovation, engineering and style to create the definitive open-top Sports GT.

Powered by a new 4.0-litre twin-turbo 510PS V8 engine, the DB11 Volante is built around the all-new bonded aluminium structure first seen in the DB11 Coupe. Lighter and more rigid than the model it replaces, the DB11 Volante has been engineered to deliver a much broader envelope of abilities. Greater levels of performance and handling accentuate the more sporting side ofopen-top Aston Martin ever built, styled to put its rivals in the shade and honed to achieve a fine balance of ride, handling, responsiveness and refinement, the DB11 Volante is dedicated to delivering a new dimension of driving pleasure.

Aston Martin President and Chief Executive Officer, Dr Andy Palmer, said of the DB11 Volante: “For many of our customers, indeed many generations of Aston Martin customer, the Volante has always offered something very special: a unique combination of elegant style, innate sporting ability and sensory engagement that lifts it above other open-top cars. The new DB11 Volante captures those qualities perfectly and promises the kind of pleasure and enjoyment that can only come from driving an open-top Aston Martin”.

Max Szwaj, Aston Martin Chief Technical Officer, adds: “The challenge of


Cowboys wrecking ball Coen Hess is ready to up the ante as a rampaging edge back-rower in 2019, a season where he insists the club will have "no excuses" for not roaring up the NRL ladder after a year of disappointment that left a lingering sour taste in his mouth.

The Cowboys have recently been on a pre-season camp near Cairns where Hess said there were several gruelling sessions but also plenty of team meetings to discuss the club's goals for the coming season.

Last season the Cowboys lost five from their first six to be out of the running for finals football by May. In their premiership year of 2015 they lost their first three and the season prior to that three of their first four. It is wherecall for myself. Since I've been at the club we've always had a winning feel about things and to not make the finals last season was very disappointing and leaves a sour taste in my mouth. We are doing everything to make sure we are not sitting down the bottom of the ladder again."

Last year Paul Green told NRL.com that part of Hess's learning curve as a forward was to be able to play in the middle when required. He had that opportunity at in 2017 in club football and for the Maroons in State of Origin, and on occasion last season but the Cowboys recognise it as an edge-forward where he can be at his most devastating. Hess started 19 of his 23 NRL games in 2018


of former Brisbane Broncos lock Josh McGuire, who Hess said would add punch to what Jordan McLean, Matt Scott, Jason Taumalolo and Scott Bolton already offer up front.

"It looks pretty exciting and I think the club has done really well recruitment wise with Barbs (Ben Barba) out the back as well," Hess said.

"Josh McGuire is a real character who brings a few laughs and on the training field he is a real workhorse. Everyone loves playing with guys like that."

Hess said he was "around 110 to 111" kilos at present, lighter than what he was at the same time last pre-season and approximately his playing weight from the 2018 season.

In the off-season he enjoyed a trip to Bali but when he came back he prepared for the startST KILDA has locked away an important part of its future, with defensive playmaker Jimmy Webster recommitting for a further two years.

The 23-year-old has re-signed with the Saints until the end of the 2019 season.

"The club has showed great faith in me since I was drafted in 2011 and I'm really excited about where we're going as a group," Webster said.

"Before I broke my hand against Carlton I was starting to string together some consistent footy and that will be my focus in the second half of the year, just to be more consistent."

Webster paid tribute to captain to Jarryn Geary for giving him the confidence to take on the game.

"Gears been terrific for me and someone I've learnt a fair bit off over the past few years.


He, and my coaches, have really encouraged me to back myself," Webster said.

St Kilda chief operating officer Ameet Bains said Webster's signature was an important one.

"We're thrilled to have Jimmy on board until the end of 2019," Bains said.

"He has become a really important member of our defence and taken his game to a new level this season.

"Securing his services for another two years is an important step in the club consolidating its core group of emerging senior players."

Taken with pick 42 in the 2011 NAB AFL Draft, Webster has played 60 senior games since his debut in 2013.fixtures consisted of I-beams and sliding panels which were normally affixed to and formed part of the Butler building.

Crocodile attacks in the Northern Territory of Australia.
To examine crocodile attacks in the Northern Territory with particular reference to risk factors, range of injuries, microorganisms isolated from wounds, and surgical management; and to make recommendations for optimal treatment. The case notes of patients treated at the Royal Darwin Hospital within the last decade were reviewed retrospectively. Autopsy and newspaper reports for the same period were also reviewed. There were 16 reported crocodile attacks in Northern Territory waters from June 1981 to June 1991. Four of these were fatal. Most attacks resulted from swimming or wading in shallow water (13/16). Half the victims were known to be affected by alcohol. The majority of attacks occurred in failing light or at night (10/16). Injuries in survivors ranged from minor lacerationshis liabilities, and overstated the value of his interest in the real estate projects he was developing. Symington was also alleged to have submitted contradictory versions of statements bearing the same "as of" date.

A 23-count superseding indictment was returned against Symington on January 9, 1997. Prior to trial, the district court granted Symington's motion to dismiss one count as unconstitutionally vague. Trial by jury on the remaining 22 counts began on May 13, 1997, and lasted through the first week of August, 1997. At the end of the trial, the district court granted Symington's motion for judgment of acquittal on one count, but denied the motion as to all other counts. The remaining 21 counts were submitted to the jury on August 8, 1997.

Cotey stated, however, that she was prepared to stand by her position even though she was clearly in the minority: "I realized that I was the one isolated. But I also realized I told [another juror] I was a separate juror and had a right and I didn't like being bullied down on a point." Cotey claimed that she was willing to discuss elements of the case with the other jurors, but that she became intimidated when everyone talked at once and demanded that she justify her views as soon as she stated them.

The Judge decided to dismiss Cotey because she was "either unwilling or unable to deliberatefinancial statements, and that he would maintain a net worth of not less than $4,000,000. Thus on May 8, 1990 Symington provided VNB with his December 31, 1989 financial statement (the 1989 statement), and on May 14, 1991 he submitted his December 31, 1990 statement (the 1990 statement). It was proved at trial that the 1990 statement was materially false, and that Symington falsely represented its accuracy to VNB when he submitted it.10

One of the reasons such a system is unsatisfactory is because it fails to recapture existing braking energy.
Prior art hybrid energy railway vehicles typically operate from stored electric energy that is generated by a turbine engine and generator. Such hybrid energy railway vehicles rely on a turbine engine and generator as the sole source of stored electric energy on which to drive the traction motor of the hybrid energy railway vehicle. Such prior art hybrid energy railway vehicles fail to recapture dynamic braking energy generated by the traction motor of the hybrid energy railway vehicle and is required to turn on and off the turbine engine and generator as required by the level of charge of the hybrid energy railway vehicle storage system.
