Turok Goes to the Movies

Wanted: Native American Indian for role in action movie, to pose for action figure toys

By IGN Staff

Acclaim recently announced an agreement in principle with Golden Books Entertainment Group which would take Turok to the silver screen and onto our TVs.

Of course, this time Turok of the videogame and comic book series Turok: Dinosaur Hunter, could appear as a character in an animated series, rather than a playable character.

Golden Books Entertainment Group will represent Turok -- as well as two other Acclaim properties, Magnus and Solar, also from the pages of Acclaim Comics -- with third parties in the areas of services and products such as toys, games, puzzles, apparel and non-comic publishing. Together, Acclaim and Golden Books Entertainment Group will develop theatrical and audio-visualgame," said Gregory Fischbach, Acclaim Entertainment co-chairman and chief executive officer. "Our goal was to ascertain the right partner to serve as agent for Turok's further development, and we've found that partner in Golden Books."

Acclaim continues to build the Turok franchise with the adaptation of Turok: Dinosaur Hunter for the PC (fall 1997) and the GameBoy. In addition, the original team that created Turok is developing a sequel to the N64 phenomenon. Initial plans call for the sequel's release in 1998, but no confirmed release date has yet been set.

Take on prehistoric predators of all shapes and sizes as Turok: Dinosaur Hunter. This single-player adventure takes you through 3D worlds as you scale surfaces and swim underwater to take out razor-toothed raptors, triceratops, pterodactyls, and even alien marauders.

As like the Mainstream Pokemon Games where some Pokemon are exclusive to a given Version of a Game, so something similar is found within Pokemon GO. Instead, however, a handful of Pokemon are exclusive to a given region or country in the world. Within the 3rd Generation of Pokemon GO, there are a whopping nine different Pokemon that are Region Exclusive.

One of those nine Pokemon is Torkoal, who is exclusive to players found in India and Southeastern Asia. Since Trading has yet to be incorporated in Pokemon GO, the only realistic way of obtaining Torkoal is by visiting one of these given areas. Sometimes there may be given Events that are held which will see certain Region Exclusive Pokemon being found in other areas of across


Andrew James Breitbart, American political Internet publisher (born Feb. 1, 1969, Los Angeles, Calif.—died March 1, 2012, Los Angeles), skewered liberal targets, frequently with the use of undercover videos; his vigorous online campaigns made him a hero to many on the political right, though in some cases he was shown to have used deceptive or inaccurate sources. After having graduated from Tulane University, New Orleans, Breitbart became an editor for The Drudge Report, a conservative news aggregator Web site, but in 2005 he launched his own site, Breitbart.com. He later added the sites Big Hollywood, Big Government, and Big Journalism. In his first big story, in 2009, he posted videos made by a conservative activist of a sting operation in which workers for the Association of Community Organizationsfor Reform Now (ACORN) were seen giving advice on setting up a prostitution operation; as a result, the organization lost financial support and disbanded. In 2010 Breitbart posted a video clip purporting to show a black Department of Agriculture official, Shirley Sherrod, admitting racial prejudice in a speech to an NAACP group; she was fired before the misleading nature of the heavily edited video was revealed. (Sherrod later sued Breitbart for defamation.) The following year Democratic Rep. Anthony Weiner resigned from the House of Representatives after Breitbart exposed lewd photographs that Weiner had taken of himself and sent to several young women.

The Silence is Broken

It's been way to hot to post anything.

Somehow, the Pittsburgh Pirates have been hotter.

In what seems like a two-month fever dream, the Pirates have re-kindled a passion for baseball that hasn't existed for a long time in Pittsburgh. Since Memorial Day, the Pirates are 27-17. Their 51st win of the season came on July 19th. Last year, their 51st win came on September 19th. There are more mind-boggling statistics, but as the great Dodgers Announcer Vin Scully once said, "Statistics are used like a drunk uses a lamp post, for support, not illumination".

So allow me to waylay statistics, and tell you why I really think the Pirates are winning.

Josiah Quincy and the Rise of Mass Politics in Boston, 1800-1830

The anatomy of a popular insurgency that ushered in a new age of American democracy

Matthew H. Crocker

Details

Description

A study of partisan politics and class conflict in early nineteenth-century Boston, this book traces the history of a popular revolt against an entrenched ruling elite. Led by an unlikely populist, patrician Josiah Quincy, the rebellion against the reigning Federalist party not only altered the political landscape of Boston but also signaled the advent of the Jacksonian Age. According to Matthew H. Crocker, Boston in the early republic was a city divided by opposing conceptions of democracy. While the Federalist elite struggled to uphold traditional notions of deference to authority, anti-Federalist insurgents rejected the idea of hierarchy and


embraced a commitment to political equality. The challenge to the established order eventually coalesced around Josiah Quincy, who reversed his longstanding political loyalties and forged a popular coalition that broke the hegemony of the Federalist party. Elected in 1823 as Boston's second mayor, Quincy dominated the city's politics for nearly a decade before the people who had brought him to power turned against him. In the end, Crocker argues, Quincy and the insurgency he led left an ambiguous legacy. On the one hand, as Boston's "Great Mayor," Quincy established himself as one of the nineteenth century's most powerful and dictatorial city executives. On the other, the populist movement that toppled the Federalist party in Boston presaged a new kind of American politics that would soon spread throughout thenation.

Reviews

"Offers a novel and meticulously documented analysis of the compelling world of Boston politics in the years after the Hartford Convention. Crocker demonstrates that even in Boston, the Federalist grip on power proved much more tenuous as traditional deferential politics gave way. In Crocker's hands, the story of the Federalists' vigorous defense of their political standing in the face of numerous popular challenges provides a window onto the crucial relationship of class and politics in the early republic."—Peter S. Field, author of The Crisis of the Standing Order: Clerical

Intellectuals and Cultural Authority in Massachusetts, 1780–1833

"A well-written and well-researched book. In the rough and tumble of the Boston school of politics, Josiah Quincy was a master. Not until the days of James Michael Curley would this city see another

Xe-NONE

Xe-NONE are a Russian band from Kirov. They emerged in mid-2004 when Lexy Dance (vocals, programming) and Newman (synths, programming) worked on the crossing of a modern metal and electronic dance sound.

History

2004
The band was formed by Lexy Dance (vocal, programming) and Newman (synths, programing) at the summer 2004. Their first line-up was completed with the addition of EvilAnn (female Vocals) and Schultz (Bass), Max (Guitar) and P2D2 (Drums). At the same time arose the name of Xe-NONE, which is fully marked style and vision of the future project: Xenos (alien, Greek.) + NONE (nothing, English.)

Thanks to the popularity and tangible support to the local press EP began to diverge from the shelves of local rock - stores.The mystery barge taking shape in San Francisco Bay will eventually be a 50-foot-tall, 250-foot-long structure made of recycled shipping containers and surrounded by sails resembling fish fins, according to documents unearthed by the San Francisco Chronicle. Documents filed with the Port of San Francisco by By and Large LLC say the barge is intended as a "studio" and "temporary technology exhibit space" that will drive tourism along the waterfront, the Chronicle reports. By and Large is assumed to be connected with Google, given that the company acknowledged this week that is planning to use its barges (there's another one in Maine) to showcase new technologies.

HOMER — A pastor wearing a colander on his head offered the opening prayer on behalf of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster to open a local government meeting in Alaska, the latest blessing from a nontraditional church since a court ruling.

Barrett Fletcher, the Pastafarian pastor, noted the duties performed by the members of the Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly in his Tuesday message, adding a few of them "seem to feel they can’t do the work without being overseen by a higher authority, " Kenai radio station KSRM reported Wednesday.

“So, I’m called to invoke the power of the true inebriated creator of the universe, the drunken tolerator (sic) of the all lesser and more recent gods, and maintainer of gravity here on earth. May the great FlyingSpaghetti Monster rouse himself from his stupor and let his noodly appendages ground each assembly member in their seats,” Fletcher said.

The only people who stood for the invocation were those without seats in the standing-room-only assembly hall in Homer, which is about 125 miles south of Anchorage. One man turned his back to face the wall during the invocation, and other men did not remove their hats.

The Pastafarian invocation followed one in June from Satanic Temple member Iris Fontana that caused about a dozen people to leave the chamber in protest when she invoked “Hail Satan” in her opening prayer.

Fontana was among the plaintiffs in the lawsuit litigated by the American Civil Liberties Union of Alaska against the borough after it approved a 2016 policy saying that people


who wanted to give the invocations at the government body's meetings had to belong to official organizations with an established presence on the Kenai Peninsula. Other plaintiffs who had been denied permission to give the invocations included an atheist and a Jewish woman.

The Alaska Supreme Court last October ruled that the borough policy was unconstitutional, and the borough government changed it in November to allow anyone to offer invocations regardless of religion.

The Flying Spaghetti Monster church, called FSM for short, was formed in 2005 as a response to the Kansas State Board of Education’s hearings on evolution in schools. Its founder sent a letter about FSM as a way to argue against teaching creationism in biology classes, the Homer News has reported.

Church followers believe an invisible and undetectablea listen.

Arctic Buoy: The Arctic Circle is blanketed in snow and ice eight months out of the year. The terrain is rocky and the sparse vegetation consists of shrub-like trees. The Inuit have created clever guideposts called Inuksuit to help navigate this barren expanse. John Terriak’s, The Sentinel is modeled after a specific type of Inuksuit called an Inunnguaq or “person substitute”. These arctic buoys resemble a person standing with outstretched arms and have become a popular symbol associated with the Inuit. The Inunnguaq is part of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics logo and is also featured on the Canadian Territory of Nunavut flag.

Annie Pootoogook’s Brief Case (2005) is an Inuit spin on Pop Art. This art movement emphasizes everyday objects (think: Andy Warhol’s Campbell’s soup cans) and was first introduced in the United States and Europe in the 1950s and 1960s.

Despite this influx of technology, the Inuit have continued to honor and preserve their traditions. In 1999, the Canadian government established the Nunavut Territory—nunavut means “our land” in Inukitut. This vast northern expanse includes traditional Inuit lands. In keeping with Inuit tradition, the territory is governed by a legislature whose members do not belong to a political party.

German banks are seeking to blunt any fresh U.S. sanctions against Russia so they can continue existing business with Russian clients, according to an internal briefing paper prepared by a financial industry lobby group.

The risk of new restrictions on doing business with Russia has risen since the Democratic Party won control of the U.S. House of Representatives. New anti-Moscow measures could jeopardize funding for a multi-billion dollar gas pipeline between Germany and Russia, Reuters said.

In response, lenders in Europe's largest economy have ratcheted up their lobbying efforts with U.S. lawmakers and government officials, warning that current proposals to sanction major Russian banks would be so


expansive that they could disrupt global markets.

"In their current form, the proposed bills would no longer just target the Russian President and oligarchs with close ties to Putin, but would effectively place an embargo against the Russian Federation," according to an extract from the document prepared by the Association of German Banks.

"International financial institutions which already operate in Russia would face new sanctions with massive business and compliance challenges."

The three-page paper calls for exceptions to be made which would allow "German banks and companies to complete business that cannot be unwound easily."

That weekend, she went to the Delaware

PHOENIX (AP) — An Arizona man who fell to the bottom of an old abandoned mine shaft, broke both his legs, fought off a trio of rattlesnakes and went two days without food or water before a friend heard his cries for help is lucky to be alive, said the head of a rescue team.

“He is a very fortunate individual,” Operations Commander Roger Yensen of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Mountain Rescue Posse said Thursday of 62-year-old John Waddell.

Waddell owns the land where the shaft is located north of Phoenix and was using a rope to lower himself into it on Monday when he lost control and fell at least 50 feet (15 meters) to the rocky ground. He had a cellphone but no service.

One of his friends, Terrywho promoted shows out of Dayton for years. Thatcher worked the various wrestling territories and became a top announcer and commentator in the 1970s. After Ric Flair recovered from a plane crash in the middle of the decade, it was Thatcher among others behind the camera as a , helping Flair develop his ‘Nature Boy’ persona along with dozens of others.

Thatcher, who worked as a trainer for WCW and WWE during the late 1990s wrestling boom, and still hosts training seminars for eager young wrestlers, repeated others in saying Heenan was the greatest manager and commentator in pro wrestling, but said he was also one of his greatest friends.

“If he was your friend, he was your friend for life,” Thatcher said.

Heenan died Sunday at the age of 73


segments aired but has had a devout cult following for 30 years.

While the WWF in the 1980s was filled with heroes like Hulk Hogan, the Ultimate Warrior and others, almost all its villains were managed by Heenan. Some pay-per-views he would manage nearly every match. He’s the only manager in the history of the wrestling business to earn a six-figure paycheck for one show.

After leaving the WWF, he went to WCW to replace the disgruntled Jesse Ventura. He had a natural chemistry with WCW announcer Tony Schiavone when calling matches in the early years, mainly commentating straight before he would return to his bad guy personality soon after.

He left WCW in 2000, unhappy with the company and feeling uninspired. He had issues with his former broadcast partner TonySchiavone over what Heenan felt was a lack of loyalty. WCW was out of business less than a year later. Two years later he had throat cancer, which cost him his famous voice. During this period he wrote two memoirs in two years.

To put Heenan’s status into perspective, pro wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer was asked during his radio show if he ever felt fear being in the presence of wrestlers or at a wrestling event.

He said only once, when he was booked for the same radio show as Heenan when the pro wrestling business was much more secretive. Heenan and Meltzer were in the same room waiting to go on the air with Heenan, who wasn’t humored. It only took one look from Heenan

In the last years of his life he was hurt after multiple falls at his home. He also wore a neck brace, similar to Roger Ebert, and was nearly unrecognizable, and could only speak a few words before becoming exhausted.

No. 7 Operational Training Unit RAAF (7OTU) was a Royal Australian Air Force heavy bomber training unit of World War II. 7OTU was formed on 12 February 1944 at RAAF Station Tocumwal in southern New South Wales to train RAAF B-24 Liberator crews. 7OTU was initially equipped with ex-USAAF B-24Bs but later received new B-24Js. At full strength the unit was equipped with 54 B-24s and was responsible for training 28 crews per month. 7OTU was disbanded following the end of the war.

In 1944 one of the few verified instances of sabotage occurred at Tocumwal, when major sections of the wiring looms in 12 B-24s were cut and removed. This put the aircraft out of service for several months until the damage could


Ann Coulter Is Right: Schools Are a Hotbed of Violence and Crime

By: Jim Kouri, CPP

In her bestselling and controversial book, Ann Coulter examines the abysmally poor US public education system. One of the elements of the overall failure of public schools is the fear on the part of students that their fellow classmates may injure or even kill them.

An unprecedented level of national concern about crime has ensued following incidents of high-profile violent crimes perpetrated by and against youth. As evidenced by several fatal school shootings in rural and suburban communities across the United States, school violence is not just an isolated problem occurring in destitute, inner-city neighborhoods. Rather, violence by and against youth is affecting nearly all young people across the country and its impact on youthvictims and witnesses is of paramount importance.

GETTING TO KNOW GEVORG AVAGYAN

Born in the year 1922 in a small town in Armenia, Gevorg Avagyan is a painter that represents some of the last remaining Old World Armenian artists that still cling to the classic style that was brought forth from there. Gevorg Avagyan studied at the Armenian Fine Arts College, followed by the Armenian Fine Arts Academy. He has worked with other talented artists in Armenia and was known as a master of creating not only portraiture, but of beautiful landscapes as well. Gevorg Avagyan still paints toThe APA's annual Poolplayer Championships usually produce plenty of surprises, and 2017 was no different.

Story by Skip Maloney

At their core, the American Poolplayers Association annual Poolplayer Championships are not about the money. Sure, the Poolplayer Championships dole out nearly $700,000 in cash and prizes. But for most of the 2,200 players that broke out their cues at the Westgate Hotel Resort and Casino in Las Vegas for the amateur league system's national singles and doubles tournament, simply participating is considered a massive achievement. The thought of actually winning one of the 11 divisions doesn't even enter most players' minds.

So when first-time attendees, like Sonja Bennett and Michelle Templeton found themselves clutching National Champion trophies at the 2017 event, their responses were predictable.

Templeton overcame anxiety issues to calmly claim


one of the 11 titles at stake at the APA Poolplayers Championships.

"It was the best moment of my life," said Templeton of Carbondale, Ill., who won the 9-Ball Shootout Green Tier title.
"I never felt that good about anything in my life before. Ever!" said Bennett of Kankakee, Ill., who became the first woman player to win the APA's Wheelchair Championship.

Of course, the $10,000 that Templeton earned and the $2,000 that Bennett picked up certainly added to the good cheer.
The 49-year-old Bennett's achievement was particularly unlikely, and not solely because no woman had won the wheelchair division since the APA started including it in 2005. A fully ambulatory player for more than 30 years, Bennett was confined to a wheelchair in 2015 after circulatory problems forced the amputation ofher right leg. After more than a year away from the game, Bennett was convinced to return to the table by a friend. And it was local league operator Bob Smith who sent Bennett to Las Vegas to compete in the Wheelchair Championship.
"He believed in me enough to send me out there," Bennett said.

Bennett faced yet another challenge shortly after arriving in Las Vegas, when news arrived that her grandmother had passed away.
"I was going to get on a plane that night," she said. "My grandmother was a bowler and was a very competitive lady. And she loved to win. My family and the funeral director, who had known my grandmother well, told me that my grandmother would not have wanted me to miss this opportunity."

After losing her


leg several years ago, Bennett became the first woman winner of the APA Wheelchair Championships.

Bennett indeed made the most of the opportunity, winning her first three matches to reach the money. That, in itself, would have made the trip a success, but Bennett churned ahead, winning three more matches the next day to reach the title match unbeaten.

Bennett's opponent in the title match, Marland Redfield of Marshall, Mich., entered the match with a skill level of 5. Bennett had been reclassified as a 3, meaning Redfield would need to win four games before Bennett won two in the finale. Redfield raced through the first two racks, before Bennett claimed a rack to reach the hill first. Redfield responded with a win to bring the match to a decidingto reach 31 total points before Hicks reached 25, which she managed to do with Hicks on 21.

Templeton's unexpected win was made even more memorable by having her family with her in Las Vegas. Her husband and two children joined in the fun, with her husband finishing ninth in the 8-Ball Classic. Templeton and her daughter, Hope, 18, a high school senior who competes with her on a Monday night APA team, were able to practice together prior to the finals."

"It was amazing," Templeton said. "I don't think either of us will ever forget it."

Templeton and Bennett were just two of the trophy winners to emerge from the 2,200-plus entrants in the various divisions, which showed modest increases across the board in participation.

One of the most competitive division


was the 167-player 9-Ball Shootout Black Tier (skill level 6-9) division, which was won by John Pasquarella of San Diego, who failed to win a single match in the 2016 nationals. The 17-year APA veteran credited several days of pre-tournament practice for his success.

Pasquarella's early arrival in Las Vegas paid dividends in the 9-Ball Shootout.

"I got [to Las Vegas] on Tuesday," Pasquarella said, "and spent two days practicing my break from different areas on the table. By the time I got to the matches, my break was finally working for me."

The final 9-Ball Shootout division, the White Tier (skill level 4-5), was captured by Canadian Rene Maurice of Sudbury, Ontario.
In 8-Ball Classic competition, Kevin Grimes of Yorba Linda, Calif., won the Orange Tier (skill level 5), while Baltimore'sJimmy James took home top honors in the Red Tier (skill level 4). Both divisions featured more than 150 entrants.

Grimes earned a national 8-ball crown.

Chicago's Benjamin Almazan won the Yellow Tier (skill level 4), with Taplia Renfrow of Atlanta winning the Blue Tier (skill level 2-3). The Purple Tier, the highest level in the 8-Ball Classic, was won by Daniel McKenney of Petal, Miss.

McKenney won the 8-Ball Classic's highest-level division.

The doubles championships were claimed by Bobby Harvison and Tyshawn Foster (8-Ball), and Adam Wray and Chris Whitlow of Woburn, Mass. (9-Ball).
As it has in recent years, the APA offered live stream coverage of the semifinal and final events. Having switched to the Facebook Live platform (as well as YouTube and Twitch), APA PR manager Jason Bowman claimed Facebook

Four great games. Catch the Divisional Round of the 2017 NFL playoffs this weekend beginning Saturday, January 14, at 4:35 p.m. EST.

A brief recap: Last week’s Wild Card Round of the NFL playoffs saw the Houston Texans emerge victorious over the Oakland Raiders (27-14), the Seattle Seahawks score an easy victory (26-6) over the Detroit Lions, the Pittsburgh Steelers win 30-12 against the Miami Dolphins, and the Green Bay Packers win a surprising victory against the New York Giants (38-13)– allowing all four to secure places in the Divisional Round of the playoffs.

This weekend’s matchups will therefore feature eight of the league’s top teams and determine which four advance to the American Football Conference (AFC) and National Football Conference (NFC) Championship games next weekend.

If nothing else, the group is deep and intriguing. By comparison, the Dodgers, Diamondbacks, Padres and Giants emptied their wallets for quality.

Los Angeles added Jason Schmidt. The Diamondbacks reunited with Randy Johnson and acquired Doug Davis. San Diego went for the old, signing Greg Maddux and David Wells. San Francisco opened the vault for Barry Zito.

"I am big believer in probability, of what guys' numbers have been historically," Padres GM Kevin Towers said. "If someone tells me that we can have a guy who pitches 200 innings and wins 15 games every year, like Maddux, I'll take that."

He can’t wait until the next phase of life because he views so much of his current education as being forced down his throat. Many of the topics that his courses deal with are things that he doesn’t care anything about. He would much rather study topics that HE wants to learn about.

He shared two recent examples with me:

I looked away from the campaign for a second on Tuesday and, as de Tocqueville once wrote to Thomas Paine, the hamster fell completely off the wheel. First, MSNBC calls shenanigans on the Democratic National Committee and muses about holding an underground debate in New Hampshire with the three Democratic candidates. That was merely the appetizer, however. In Iowa, He, Trump announced that Megyn Kelly was one thing up with which he would not put, and announced that he and Roger Ailes had broken up again, and that he would not be gracing the Fox News debate stage on Thursday night.

Trump announced that he might be willing to enter into negotiations, but only with Rupert Murdoch his own self.) But, upon his announcement, opinions about whether or not this was a good move or a bad one sprang up all over the lot. One school of thought said it was a brilliant ploy to steal the news cycle and to run out the clock on his opponents in Iowa. Yet another school of thought decided that it was the first real blunder He, Trump had made. Yet another school of thought has it that nobody knows anything, and that He, Trump already had torn up the rulebook and thrown the pieces into an electric fan, and that there is absolutely nothing he can do to his campaign thatthose losers, either. But, whether or not he's picked this up in his travels, or whether or not this was going to be the pitch all along, He, Trump now has the stirrings of the beginnings of a message in his madness. You could see it in the glee with which he slapped Fox News around on Tuesday. He now is running quite clearly on the idea that Republican voters have been played for rubes and suckers by the major institutions of their party and by the conservative movement. He is so confident in this role that he can even come out quite clearly in favor of an idea he shares with practically every Democratic politician alive.

It surrounds the City of Ithaca and is the City's only border, although the City has a completely separate government, and is not part of the town. The two entities form a single community for most practical purposes, for instance, sharing a local school district and many municipal services. Many of the Town's government offices, such as the Town hall, are located within the City, outside of the Town's jurisdiction.

Ithaca College is in the town, south of the city center. The main campus of Cornell University is located just to the east, partly in the City and partly in the Town.

The Town Supervisor of Ithaca is Herb Engman. The Town Board has

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 30.3 square miles (78.5 km²), of which, 29.1 square miles (75.4 km²) of it is land and 1.2 square miles (3.1 km²) of it (3.99%) is water.

The town is at the foot of Cayuga Lake, one of the Finger Lakes. The town borders all other towns in Tompkins County, with the exception of the Towns of Caroline and Groton. It also borders both the eastern and western shores of Cayuga Lake.

Prime Minister David Cameron has introduced new restrictions on immigrants.

The first Romanians and Bulgarians with unrestricted access to the UK labour market have begun to arrive despite last-ditch efforts to prevent a feared wave of fresh immigration.

Romanians landing at Luton Airport were greeted by Home Affairs Select Committee chairman Keith Vaz, who said that those arriving today provided just a "snapshot" of those expected to come to the country over the coming months.

The 180-seat aircraft from Tirgu Mures only had 140 passengers on board, he said, most of whom already live and work in the UK.

"Just on the conversations we've had with people who have come here, a lot of them are returning people, they already work in Britain and they're coming back


law to keep the borders shut.

But ministers denied such a move would be feasible.

Mr Vaz also spoke out against the Government's refusal to bow to repeated demands to publish or commission estimates of the numbers expected to enter Britain in the face of unofficial research predicting as many as 50,000 people arriving from the eastern European countries each year.

The Labour MP for Leicester East added: "There are already 141,000 Romanians and Bulgarians living in the UK.

"The concern of the committee has always been the lack of robust estimates of people coming here and we still feel very strongly the Government ought to have asked the Migration Advisory Committee to have conducted a piece of research which would have told us the number of people who were came intowashing cars in London but hopes to go on to work in the construction industry and chose to come to the UK over other European countries as he can speak the language.

"I like English. I understand English," he said.

"I don't want to stay here. I want to renovate my home and to make a good life in Romania because it's much easier to live in Romania because it's not expensive."

Mr Spiresau, who has left his wife at home in their small village, added: "She hopes to see me with a lot of money."

After speaking to reporters the Romanian was invited to join Mr Vaz for a coffee where the MP asked him what he planned to do in this country.

Also on the flight was Silviu Todea, who was


returning to London after visiting Romania over the holidays.

He said he believed the majority of his compatriots would want to work.

Mr Todea, 27, who has a job in marketing in the capital, said: "Everyone has their own opinions especially with their past experiences with other nations, but I think it won't be so bad."

Leading politicians from Bulgaria and Romania have dismissed fears that the change in access restrictions will trigger a wave of immigration to the UK.

While some have raised fears of a surge in immigration similar to that seen from Poland in 2002, others have accused the Prime Minister of "pandering to prejudice" as he responds to the threat posed by the UK Independence Party (Ukip).

Mr Cameron has rushed through new measures to ensure that from todayare amongst the tightest in Europe to protect the UK from abuse."

Natalie Bennett, leader of the Green Party of England and Wales, said: "As flights and buses arriving today showed, many Romanians and Bulgarians have been living in Britain for years.

"But we should also be welcoming new arrivals, just as Britons arriving in France, Spain and other European states find themselves welcomed.

"It's time to end the toxic immigration debate and acknowledge that, whether they are nurses and doctors coming to work in the NHS, computer game designers or building workers, Romanians and Bulgarians, as with other immigrants, will be contributing to our society.

As discussed below, the court finds that defendant Ichaso is a citizen of New York, destroying diversity between the parties, and that plaintiff Chappelle's cross-motion is without merit.

BACKGROUND
Chappelle, a New York resident, is a motion picture casting director who has worked on several major film productions. Chappelle was retained by defendants Beacon Communications Corp. and Beacon Films, Inc. ("Beacon") through their production company, Ghiznost Productions, Inc., sometime


prior to September, 1992, for a film production entitled "Harlem," starring Wesley Snipes. Work on this production was to be performed in California and New York.
Chappelle commenced her duties for Beacon on September 22, 1992, in Los Angeles, California. Chappelle alleges that from that time until she terminated her professional relationship with Beacon, approximately on October 20, 1992, she was subjected to persistent unwelcome sexual advances from, among others, defendant Leon Ichaso, the film's director. Chappelle alleges that these unwelcome sexual advances culminated on October 20, 1992 with a sexual assault by Ichaso.
On December 11, 1992, Chappelle filed this action in federal court, alleging discrimination under the United States Constitution and 42 U.S.C. § 1981. Chappelle also alleged violations of rights guaranteed by the California Constitution and stateresidence, (3) copies of two checks, one from a Chemical Bank account in New York City and one in the name of a company owned by Ichaso, from a MidLantic bank account in New Jersey, (4) the top half of bills sent to Ichaso by his law firm, located in New York, (5) signed lease renewal forms for Ichaso's apartment in New York covering a period from 1992 to 1996, (6) a letter from Ichaso's accountants in New Jersey, dated May 26, 1994, stating that they have performed services for Ichaso for more than ten years, during which time his residence was in New York. In addition to the documentary evidence submitted, Ichaso testified that he has rented his New York City apartment for twenty years and has


lived there along with, at various times, his first wife and his current wife, from whom he is separated. Ichaso also testified that his father, mother and sister live in New York City.
In contrast, Chappelle points to alleged evidence of Ichaso's residence in California, including (1) leases on a two bedroom apartment in Los Angeles covering 1988 to 1994, (2) Ichaso's operation of a business out of his Los Angeles address, (3) a recent suit filed by Ichaso in a Los Angeles court, (4) a City National Bank account maintained by Ichaso in California, (5) a California driver's license and car registration maintained by Ichaso in California, (6) the presence in California of Ichaso's "live-in" girlfriend. None of these are inconsistent with Ichaso's claimed domicile in New York.
Lookingat the totality of the evidence presented, the court concludes that at the time of the filing of this action, Ichaso was a New York citizen, at least for purposes of diversity jurisdiction. While Ichaso's career as a director of major motion pictures has required extensive contacts with California, to the extent that Ichaso resides in California several months of the year, these contacts do not obscure the fact that Ichaso's primary connection is to New York. New York is the only state in which Ichaso paid resident taxes, it is where Ichaso has retained a residence for the longest period of time, and it is the locus of many of Ichaso's business and social contacts. Many of Ichaso's contacts with California, such as his apartment, bank account


and business, are necessary for the advancement of his career as a film director. Ichaso explained at his deposition that he keeps a car in California, rather than New York, because in New York he has access to the cars of his father and sister, both of whom live near Ichaso. The court concludes that, for purposes of diversity jurisdiction, Ichaso was a New York citizen at the time of commencement of this action. Therefore, as between Chappelle and Ichaso, no diversity of citizenship exists and Ichaso must be dismissed from this lawsuit.
Regarding Chappelle's motion for sanctions, attorney's fees and costs pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 11, the court denies this motion in its entirety. While the court would agree that Ichaso's declaration in support of this motion for dismissal,prepared with the assistance of counsel, was not forthcoming with respect to his California bank accounts, and that defendant Ichaso well could have moved against the Complaint instead of Answering in June of 1993, nevertheless, Ichaso, at his deposition of May 23, 1994, explained that many of the documents requested by Chappelle in discovery were difficult to locate because Ichaso's Los Angeles apartment, in which many of the documents were stored, was destroyed in a January, 1994, earthquake. Ichaso has not produced credit card bills for the period requested, although he did produce some of what was asked of him. Ichaso asserts that many of his personal *183 records, including credit card bills for the relevant period, were sent to various friends' homes for storage. Given the circumstances,

by converting the oxygen of the oxime to a good leaving group, and then heating. In the first example, treatment of the ketone with NH2OH forms the oxime, and then in step 2, heating with acid leads to the Beckmann rearrangement. In the second example, after formation of the oxime, it is treated with Ac2O (converting the oxime oxygen to an acetate, a better leaving group than OH) and then heating. The third example is a Beckmann rearrangement on an oxime derived from an aldehyde, which results in a nitrile. Mechanism: The first step in the process is formation of an oxime from the aldehyde or ketone, which occurs in a sequence similar to formation of imines and hydra zones.

Love may be a mystery, but attraction is a science.

"The increasing popularity of Internet dating and speed dating has given social scientists a potential windfall of new data."

So begins the research study out of UPenn that looked at 10,000 speed daters in cities across the U.S.

One of the conclusions that came out of the study had to do with how long it takes you to determine whether you're attracted to someone--and the result may surprise you.

Researchers out of UPenn collaborated with HurryDate, a speed-dating company that collected data from people at speed-dating events in cities all across the country. Participants were in their 20s, 30s, and 40s, with an average age of 32. They had relatively high incomes (men had an average salary of ~$84,000 and women ~$53,000),pounds of marijuana concealed within two suitcases which were located near the front door.  Officers also found a 9 millimeter pistol and ammunition on the floorboard of Winkler's pickup truck, which was parked outside the house.

At sentencing, Special Agent Steve Edward Studhalter testified that:  the marijuana found in the suitcases was packaged in a manner commonly used to transport marijuana;  traces of marijuana and papers containing notations and figures consistent with a drug ledger were found in the truck;  two confidential informants stated that Winkler transported marijuana in pickup trucks and possessed weapons in connection with drug trafficking;  and police officers observed Winkler using numerous pickup trucks.

Lament for a Hero

Ellishul stopped for a moment, dread and grief clutching her heart despite the peaceful atmosphere of the Pristine Glade. It seemed for only a second that she heard the sound of a great horn over the wind, and then it vanished like a whisper in the night.

"Where is the horn? Where is it?" She listened, desperate to hear it again. Only once before did she hear that sound - in Rivendell, long ago, just before Mithrandir set out in the early morning with his company. The horn belonged to the mighty Captain of Gondor, whom Ellishul had become acquainted with during her brief stay.

Evening gave way to dawn, but still Ellishul did not hear the horn again. And in the sad, quietof her heart, she knew she would hear it no more in the waking of this world.

Only a couple moments in the Lord of the Rings has drawn a real tear to my eye. The death of Boromir one of them, and perhaps the greatest of them all.

Call me sentimental, but this part in the Lord of the Rings really made me quite sad, ever since I read it in the books as a kid. I have


such a deep respect for Boromir because he truly wants to do the right thing; he loves his father, brother and country to the point that he is willing to do whatever it takes. In the picture you can see he's really at his wits end with Frodo - arms outstretched, begging him to use the Ring to help Gondor return to it's former glory. But in the end, he gives in to his temptation of the Ring - a choice which ultimately led to the dissolving of the fellowship for good, as well as his own demise. But he died a true hero, sacrificing himself for others as he had always done.been any sort of unlawful collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, Mueller would have found it.

But Mueller found nothing — because “Russian collusion” never existed to begin with.

BELLEVUE -- Before her violent death on a trail near her home, Cassandra Oliphant was raising four daughters on her own.

But her struggle with poverty didn't stop her from opening her home -- and her heart -- to those more in need than herself, those who knew her said yesterday.

Oliphant, who police say was killed Monday in a random attack by a 29-year-old stranger, would "give you the shirt off her back" if she saw the need, said her longtime friend and neighbor Denise Hezel.

Known as "Cass," the tall redhead would translate for Spanish-speaking immigrants at her daughters' elementary school and at the public housing complex where she lived. She volunteered with the food-bank truck that made weekly visits to the complex, called Hidden Village, and before her van was repossessed last fall, she often drove families to food banks around Bellevue, Hezel said.

Now, Spiritridge Elementary School staff and parents, and others in the community, are trying to give back a little of that help.

Children at Spiritridge, including classmates of Oliphant's daughters in the second grade and kindergarten, sent cards and letters to comfort the girls.

Those who know Oliphant's children are heartened that they can live with their grandmother but sad that it means they will move to Florida.

In addition to the two girls at Spiritridge, Oliphant had an older daughter at Tillicum and a younger one, age 4, Hezel said. Oliphant was in the early stages of pregnancy.

The loss has hit some people especially hard.

In 2014, he was named Beatport’s fourth highest-selling artist of all time -- a figure which comes as no surprise given the sheer enormity of his catalog (a quick search on Beatport reveals nearly 1,000 tracks credited to him).

When Liquid met LGD-Gaming China in the Lower Bracket of TI3,
everyone predicted that North America would once again fall shortIsn't this Apuron's third threat to file a lawsuit?!? I can't find the Count-up, but if my memory is accurate there were the ones from …• December 2014: Apuron revealed he would be filing a defamation lawsuit against John Toves;• 13 May 2016: Media Release mentioned plans to take "canonical measures … and file civil lawsuit …"• 31 May 2016: Press Release names Tim Rohr as being targeted for the "canonical and legal measures" being taken

Just like the "Boy Who Cried Wolf" in Aesop's Fable, Apuron can be called "The Archbishop Who Cried Lawsuit"

By Apuron continuing to say that he is in the process of apparently formulating his position in order to "sue" and then failing to follow through, only increses and puts into question his credibilty and


integity which at this point is at an all time low. Does he really believe that puting out a press release claiming his innocence and blaming Tim Rohn and his associates as having the ulterior motive of removing him as Archbishop will sway public opinion in his support. The man is desperately trying to save his empire from crumbling down around him. However, as he continues to appeal to the Catholic faithful, to remainful faithful to him, the more he loses in his following. Let's face it, how many who have viewed both videos of the allegations against Apuron actually believe that Roy Quintanilla and Doris Conception are lying. The answer, Very, Very, Very few. These are two very credible sexual abuse allegations that warrant an independent non-chancerySomalia: Britain calls for Int'l support to stabilize Somalia

NAIROBI, Kenya - Britain on Thursday called on the international community to do more to help the African Union mission in Somalia (AMISOM) lead the fight against al-Shabab as Mogadishu takes on greater responsibility for its own security.

Visiting British Prime Minister Theresa May in a statement issued during her visit to Kenya also pledged additional funding to support international efforts to build long-term stability in Somalia.

"Somalia is at a critical juncture and sustainable, predictable funding and support for the troops who are building stability in the region is vital to support a transition


to Somali-led security when the conditions for a handover are right," she said in a statement issued during the visit.

May who announced over 9 million U.S. dollars of new UK funding to support the AU's peacekeeping mission in Somalia, said she will call on international donors to contribute more, setting out that an unstable Somalia has a knock-on effect on stability across the region and further afield.

In 2017, Britain contributed 385 million pounds towards international efforts to help the Somali people build an increasingly secure, stable and prosperous country.

May also announced more than 60 million pounds to help over a million people cope with and recover from the impact of conflict and drought.

May also announced over 25 million pounds to support Somalia as it works to establish astable and democratic political system.

"This will include advice to help develop rules on resource and power-sharing, and to prepare for landmark elections, including through support for voter and political party registration," the statement said.

There is growing suspicion within the camp of Accra Hearts of Oak that some individuals have conspired to sabotage the effort of coach Mohammed Polo to halt the club’s dwindling fortunes.
Such suspicions and conspiracy theories appear to have been strengthened this week when the club’s management made changes to the team’s technical bench by sacking Polo’s backroom staff at his request.
With what it described as sweeping changes within the technical fold of the club, the Hearts management last Tuesday seemed to have proclaimed loudly that it would settle with Coach Polo at least for the rest of the season.
The sudden decision to fire assistant coach Ben Adjei, goalkeeper’s trainer, Dan Tettevi, Jacob Nettey (coach of the reserve side), all former players of the club, as well


as the team manager, Nat Ofosu, according to sources, was based on the recommendations of Coach Polo, who claimed he had never received the full cooperation of his colleagues ever since he took over from Coach David Duncan.
The terse statement that accompanied the decision stated: “The management has mutually agreed with Ben Adjei, Jacob Nettey, Dan Tettevi and Nat Ofosu to part ways with immediate effect.”
But Hearts sources revealed that the decision was prompted by Polo who had always suspected the four of being involved in a grand scheme to sabotage him and make his stay in the club uncomfortable.
The source further intimated that Polo had alleged that his backroom staff still owed allegiance to former coach, David Duncan, and were consistently engaged in a plot to underminehis efforts and, subsequently, pave the way for the second coming of Duncan.
Since taking over Hearts at a time Duncan had won the hearts of most Phobians, Polo had gone through some turbulent moments and, in a fit of anger, launched a blistering attack on the rank and file of the club for allowing their petty differences to undermine the progress of the club which, he said, manifested in the club’s recent 3-0 sobering thrashing by Wa All Stars at the Accra Stadium and the series of uninspiring outings that preceded the All Stars ignominy.
The Hearts board, according to sources, has ruled out any move to sign on a new coach, but Polo’s tenure remains shaky beyond this season.
Hearts, it is certain, will begin an early hunt for

Data center design
Data center facilities are heavy consumers of energy, accounting for between 1.1% and 1.5% of the world's total energy use in 2010 [1]. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that data center facilities consume up to 100 to 200 times more energy than standard office buildings.

Energy efficient data center design should address all of the energy use aspects included in a data center: from the IT equipment to the HVAC(Heating, ventilation and air conditioning) equipment to the actual location, configuration and construction of the building.

The U.S. Department of Energy specifies five primary areas on which to focus energyDirectory integration and per-user/per-machine settings with the more advanced offering multiple power plans, scheduled power plans, anti-insomnia features and enterprise power usage reporting. Notable vendors include 1E NightWatchman, Data Synergy PowerMAN (Software), Faronics Power Save, Verdiem SURVEYOR and EnviProt Auto Shutdown Manager

Linux systems started to provide laptop-optimized power-management in 2005, with power-management options being mainstream since 2009.

Power supply
Desktop computer power supplies  are in general 70–75% efficient, dissipating the remaining energy as heat. A certification program called 80 Plus certifies PSUs that are at least 80% efficient; typically these models are drop-in replacements for older, less efficient PSUs of the same form factor. As of July 20, 2007, all new Energy Star 4.0-certified desktop PSUs must be at least 80% efficient.

New York City is a very small town. Nate showed up, naturally, because this entire show is (still) based on improbable run-ins at parties.

Next to arrive to the party was Georgina, who naturally came with Milo in tow and no Dan to be found in order to blow that shindig out of the water. Dan should have seen this coming, but because he apparently thinks that the baby somehow changed Georgina’s brain chemistry, it hadn’t occurred to him that a stunt was assured at some point. Georgina also managed to win over Lily and convincethe girl’s number, and the writers later implied that she was actually a stalker. Amazing.

A fallout of the low government spend on healthcare, is that Nigerians are forced to pay for healthcare delivery directly from their incomes at the point of getting healthcare services. This is classified as out of pocket expenses by the World Health Organisation (WHO), a major indicator of the state of healthcare delivery in a country.

The report shows that out of pocket expenses in Nigeria, which accounts for 65 percent of the total healthcare expenses in the country, is one of the highest in Africa. For example, out of pocket expense in Ghana is 29 percent, in South Africa it is just 17 percent, while it is just 10 percent in Angola. The danger of high out ofpocket expenses is that it could lead to financial ruin, or in some tragic circumstances death, where the patient is unable to afford the immediate cost of healthcare.

Nigeria, the report shows, already has one of the worst healthcare statistics in Africa. An average of 143 children of every 1,000 births die before their fifth birthday in Nigeria, figures from the 2012 World Health Statistics show. The BusinessDay Research Report shows that the only place worse than Nigeria for a child to be born is Angola, among comparative countries. The African average is 119 for children dying before their fifth birthday. In Kenya, the average is 85, in Senegal 75, in Ghana 74 and in South Africa 57.

Nigeria also has one of the worse life expectancy rates for adult

Bring your friends and family of theJerusalem Gay Pride: Six stabbed 'by ultra-Orthodox Jew' Published duration 30 July 2015

media caption Footage showed police arresting a man and holding a knife in the air

Israeli police have arrested a man after six people were wounded in a stabbing at the Gay Pride parade in Jerusalem.

A police spokesperson identified the suspect as the same man who stabbed three people at the parade in 2005.

Yishai Schlissel, an ultra-Orthodox Jew, was sentenced to 12 years in prison for that attack and was released from prison three weeks ago.

Two of the injured are in a serious condition, medics said.

The attacker emerged behind marchers and began stabbing them while screaming, before being tackled by a police officer.

Dramatic images showed the assailant reaching inside his coat and raising a knife above his


head.

Yasmin Yusupov, 20, told the BBC she and her friends were marching when she "started seeing a lot of people running".

"We didn't realise what happened but I was pulling the friends who were with me to run away. We just banged on doors of people's houses. We tried asking them to get us inside.

"When we came back I saw a few bodies on the floor right in front of me. Everyone had blood on their hands because they were trying to help," she added.

The parade continued after the wounded were taken to a hospital, with protesters chanting "end the violence".

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the attack as "a most serious incident".

"In the state of Israel the individual's freedom of choice is one of basic values. We must ensure that in Israel, every man and woman lives in security in any way they choose. That's how we acted in the past and how we'll continue to act. I wish the wounded a speedy recovery," he said in a statement.

President Reuven Rivlin condemned the stabbing as a "terrible hate crime".

"We must not be deluded, a lack of tolerance will lead us to disaster. We cannot


allow such crimes, and we must condemn those who commit and support them."

'Massive police presence'

Carole Nuriel, a director at New York-based Jewish rights organisation the Anti-Defamation League, said the group was "shocked and horrified" by the attack.

"Jerusalem's pride parade celebrates the city's diverse and vibrant LGBT community. That celebration has once again been violated with violence and hatred," she said in a statement.

She added: "We extend our solidarity with the LGBT community, and hope for the full recovery of the victims."

Hundreds of police are deployed along the parade route to prevent violence breaking out. Jerusalem police spokesman Asi Ahroni told Reuters there was a "massive presence" of police at the parade but "unfortunately the man managed to pull out a knife and attack".

The event has long been asource of tension between Jerusalem's secular minority and its Jewish Orthodox communities. Israeli police granted a permit for 30 right-wing religious activists to protest on Thursday by the Great Synagogue, close to the parade route.

Ultra-Orthodox Jews have previously gathered in the city's Mea Shearim quarter to protest against homosexuality.

Israel's homosexual community was the target of a 2009 attack in Tel Aviv, where a gunman opened fire at a centre for young gays, killing two people and wounding 15 others.

The assailant behind that attack was apprehended.

Israel has relatively liberal gay rights policies, despite the ultra-Orthodox community's hostility towards homosexuals. The Jewish state repealed a ban on consensual same-sex sexual acts in 1988.

Feinstein has never before run against a fellow Democrat, but two years ago, the moderate Democrat and former congresswoman Loretta Sanchez of Orange County got 54 percent of Republican runoff votes.

All these items give the more moderate Feinstein a huge advantage over de León this fall. They help explain why de León has trouble raising money from Democratic donors, who would rather put their dollars into congressional districts the party might flip from red to blue, and not make an enemy of the formidable Feinstein, a former mayor of San Francisco.

Put it together and it’s clear de León may need an act of


God to take over the Senate seat Feinstein has held since 1992.

The primary vote also indicates it will probably turn out to be irrelevant that de León had a near-victory with 54 percent support at the California Democrats’ state party convention last spring, which easily topped Feinstein’s support, and later won an endorsement from the Democrats’ executive committee, which comes with some plugs on campaign slate mailers this fall, plus monetary and volunteer worker support.

This happened because the bulk of both party convention delegates and executive board members today are far to the left of both Feinstein and mainstream Democratic voters, as made clear by the primary results. The current makeup of the party organization is the result of a big push by 2016 supporters of presidential candidateNobody can accuse Brantley Gilbert of being anti-gun rights, but in a recent article about country music's relationship with gun culture, the singer reveals the surprising reason he refuses to officially partner with NRA Country.

Gilbert is one of country music's loudest voices when it comes to gun ownership and the importance of supporting the Second Amendment. He even has a massive, all-encompassing back tattoo of the Second Amendment, featuring two large pistols aimed downward, followed by the text of the amendment.

Despite his avid support of gun rights, Gilbert tells Rolling Stone Country that he has deliberately refrained from partnering with NRA Country, which is the specific country music outreach arm of the National Rifle Association, throughout his career, though he has played one concert for the organization.
