tests—that he had had nothing to do with the Garcia slaying. He also said he would never have pleaded to the earlier charge if, at the time, he had known what a no-contest plea suggested. Yet, sadly, the Feit era wasn't an aberration. Camp Ped's track record continued to be the source of tragedy—and the butt of jokes by critics of the bishops' failed rehabilitation model—until it closed in 1994. The case of Father Andrew Christian Anderson of Huntington Beach is typical of the program's failure. In 1986, the popular pastor was convicted of 26 counts of molesting four altar boys. An Orange County superior court judge sentenced him to five years' probation on condition that he complete long-term treatment at Jemez Springs. After the slap-on-the-wrist ruling, Andersonwas smothered in hugs from dozens of still-loyal parishioners who had crowded into the courtroom. Mahony protégé John Steinbock, bishop of the Diocese of Orange at the time (and now Fresno's bishop) adopted a wait-and-see attitude, saying he would decide Anderson's future as a priest after the therapy. Anderson went off to Jemez Springs for treatment, followed by six months at a Paraclete halfway house in Albuquerque. In 1990, just two months after leaving the house to live on his own, Anderson was arrested after dragging a 14-year-old boy off a downtown Albuquerque street and molesting him. Due in no small part to Camp Ped's priestly patients having molested children across New Mexico during furloughs (a practice unchecked since the Porter days), by 1994 the Archdiocese of Santa


Fe had become ground zero in an explosion of clerical sex-abuse cases. The archbishop at the time, Robert Sanchez, had appointed a blue-ribbon panel to investigate the Jemez Springs problem, but it was too little, too late. It didn't help that Sanchez became embroiled in a sex scandal in 1993 after at least five women came forward to say they had had affairs with him, including the daughter of a wealthy New Mexico family that had conducted an annual fund-raiser named for Sanchez. Facing nearly 200 lawsuits and more than $50 million in damages, the archdiocese was forced to sell off choice real estate. Even so, it would have likely gone into insolvency if not for help from the national bishops' conference, spearheaded by Mahony, which chipped inOur Christ is a merciful and faithful High Priest (Heb. 2:17); He is fully qualified to be such a High Priest because He is both the Son of God with divinity and the Son of Man with humanity. Many believers know Christ only as their Lord and Savior, and they treasure the four Gospels and […]

both a recitalist and orchestral soloist; appearing under the batons of such conductors as Bruno Maderna, Daniele Paris, Mario Rossi, Paul Hupperts, and Roelof Krol among others. He was a member of the Rome-based improvisation group Gruppo di Improvvisazione di Nuova Consonanza from 1965-1973; notably serving as the group's president from 1970-1972.

In 1967 Bertoncini was appointed to the music faculty of the Pesaro Conservatory, where he remained through 1973. In 1974 he was made an Artist-in-Residence at the German Academic Exchange Service in Berlin where he created open air kinetic sound-sculptures for presentation at the Berliner Festwochen. In 1975-1976 he worked on the music faculty of McGill University in Montréal. From 1980 until his retirement in 2004 he taught on the music faculty of the Berlin University ofmessage faster than the man who carried it. Eight years later England and France were joined by submarine cable; another cable was laid under the Atlantic in 1865; a link with India followed in 1870. The telegraph transmitted messages by code, usually Morse. Then came Alexander Graham Bell, who discovered a way of sending the human voice down wires; Britain's first telephone exchange opened in 1879. The next giant step was Marconi's invention of wireless telegraphy.

The history of the new communications vocabulary is instructive. The term "telegraph" was first applied in 1792 to a simple device constructed by a Frenchman, a M. Chappe: an upright post with mobile arms that sent messages in accordance with a prearranged code. By 1805 the word was being used by cricketers to


by any man." He described how about a hundred stokers carrying their bags suddenly appeared on deck, crowding around in front of the boats, and how one of the officers—"a very powerful one"—probably Wilde—came along and "drove them, every man, like a lot of sheep, right off the deck."

Peuchen was less complimentary about the quartermaster in charge of his lifeboat. This was Hichens, who had been at the wheel when the ship hit the iceberg. Peuchen thought him unfit to be a quartermaster. Hichens was evidently in a panic; before they shoved off he told Peuchen to "get down and get that plug in" and then, when Peuchen fumbled in the dark, came rushing down the boat urging him to hurry up because the ship was going tostep or two ahead of everyone else's in court, and he was inclined to become restless when he felt he had heard enough evidence to answer one of his twenty-six questions. Captain Lord later complained to the Board of Trade about this characteristic, since he was sure Mersey had decided on his, Lord's, guilt before he had heard all the evidence. When lawyers put blurred questions, Mersey rephrased them, always more concisely. He was sharp from time to time with the third-class passengers' counsel, Harbinson, but never seriously hampered him. With the crew, he was polite: "Thank you, Jewell," he told the first witness, "and if you will allow me to say so, I think you have given your evidence very well indeed."

The report is clear and well-written.

On the same day, April 17, I transferred 1,000 shares to the chancellor of the exchequer and another 1,000 to the chief whip of my party. I was in charge then and subsequently of all their dealings in these shares.

Antony Cooke (born 3 August 1948, in Sydney, Australia), is an American cellist, recording artist, former university professor, composer, and author of published books and articles on musicology and astronomy.  Mr. Cooke's formal music and musicology training in London and subsequent career as a professional musician and recording artist are complemented by his intensive studies into astronomy.

Life and career
Antony Cooke is the son of internationally renowned cellist Nelson R. Cooke, and was born in Sydney, Australia in 1948 while his father was playing for the Sydney Symphony Orchestra.  The family moved to London when his father was appointed principal cellist of the London Symphony Orchestra.  Indeed, Nelson Cooke was recognized for his contributions to Australia in particular in 2011, when he was honored byIn the US, land owning is big business. Owning a prime piece of land can mean massive amounts of money in the form of everything from rental income to advertising dollars. As the population continues to grow, space-land, is fast becoming the new gold. While the value of the dollar may fluctuate, land just keeps growing in value, as there becomes less and less of it available for development. The men and women who own large swaths of land, many of whom have had the land in their families for generations, are benefiting mightily from the sudden high demand. As we get ready to celebrate Thanksgiving, or, if you're Native American – the National Day of Mourning – here's a look at the Top 10 landowners in the


US, and just how much all that land is now worth.

10. Stan Kroenke – Amount of Land: 740,000 acres

Monetary Worth: Approx. $1.4 Billion

Stan Kroenke was born on July 29, 1947 in Columbia, Missouri, and went on to earn a B.A., B.S., and an MBA from the University of Missouri. He is now the majority owner of the Los Angeles Rams, the CEO of Kroenke Sports Enterprises, the founder of the Kroenke Group, and the owner of the Pepsi Center Arena in Denver, Colorado. He is also part-owner of Dick's Sporting Goods. In other words, the man is wealthy and successful. His net worth rests at an estimated $7.7 billion. His land is primarily used for running his 12,000 yearlings.

9. The Reed Family – Amount of Land: 770,000 acres

MonetaryWorth: Approx. $2.23 Billion

The Reed Family married in to the wealthy Simpson Family, and subsequently took over operations. The members of the Simpson Family are the heirs to the Simpson Investment Company fortune. The company, originally founded in 1890 as a logging venture, has grown to include a logging arm, a pulpwood and liner board manufacturing arm, and a door manufacturing arm. The company also has a subsidiary that manages their forest lands and they oversaw the Simpson Railroad company until the late 1980s.

8. The Pingree Family – Amount of Land: 830,000 acres

Monetary Worth: Approx. $2.4 Billion

The Pingree Family is known as the "royal family" of Maine. The Pingree's holding company, known as the Seven Islands Land Company, manages the massive acreage the family has passed down since


their ancestor, David Pingree, first purchased the land more than 150 years ago. A very successful shipping magnate, David Pingree began buying up land in Maine before it was even a state. In 2001, an agreement was signed that only 250,000 acres of the land could ever be used for development. The rest of the land, which is about equal to the size of Rhode Island, is to be conserved.

7.King Ranch – Amount of Land: 911,215 acres

Monetary Worth: Approx. $2.6 Billion

King Ranch is a massive historic landmark that is divided up into four divisions. Located near Corpus Christi, Texas, the ranch was founded by Richard King, a river boat captain from New York. Construction was completed on the main ranch in 1853 and over the years, King andhis partners added parcels of land to their holdings, slowly expanding the ranch. There is now a King Ranch arm in Florida, as well, and the ranch is responsible for cattle, orange juice, sugar cane, green beans, sweet corn, and sod. The King Ranch company has also branched out into non-ranch related ventures, including publishing and tourism.

6. The Singleton Family – Amount of Land: 1.11 Million acres

Monetary Worth: Approx. $3.2 Billion

Henry Earl Singleton, the head of the Singleton family until he passed away in 1999 at the age of 82, amassed the family fortune through electrical engineering and major business acumen. After graduating from the U.S. Navel Academy, he went on to earn three degrees from M.I.T., and to become instrumental in both early computer design and the


inertial navigation that formed the basis of guidance systems for fighter aircraft. He co-founded Teledyne, Inc., a major conglomerate, and served as CEO for 30 years. After retiring, he began buying up land and shifted his focus to cattle ranching.

5. The Irving Family – Amount of Land: 1.2 Million acres

Monetary Worth: Approx. $3.5 Billion

James Dargavel Irving started a sawmill company in New Brunswick, Canada in 1882. The sawmill expanded into pulp milling, trucking, shipping/shipbuilding, specialty printing, consumer products, forestry, tree nurseries and prefabricated concrete. The family's land holdings now extend from Canada into Maine, and the company, now known as J.D. Irving Limited, has continued to expand. CEO duties are currently shared by Jim and Robert Irving, while James' grandson, J.K. Irving is the current owner. J.K. Irvinghas a net worth of $6 billion.

4. Brad Kelley – Amount of Land: 1.5 Million acres

Monetary Worth: Approx: $4.4 Billion

Brad Kelley was born in Bowling Green, Kentucky, in 1956, and made his money in tobacco. He founded the Commonwealth Brands tobacco company in 1991. He grew up on a farm that grew tobacco among other crops, and when health regulations and anti-smoking campaigns began to make a dent in tobacco farming, he bought up empty warehouses on the cheap. He then launched his own company and sold it for $1 billion to Houchens Industries in 2001. He subsequently used this money to buy up massive amounts of land, on which he now breeds rare animals. He owns major acreage in Florida, New Mexico, and Texas.

3. Archie Aldis "Red"


Emmerson – Amount of Land: 1.84 Million acres

Monetary Worth: Approx. $5.3 Billion

Archie Aldis Emmerson, also known as Red, was born in Grand Ronde, Oregon in 1929. His father started a sawmill business while he was in school, and after finishing high school, he focused on learning as much about the business as he could. He and his father launched their own lumber company in 1949. Their small family-owned company grew to become Sierra Pacific Industries, which is currently the second largest lumber producer in America. He currently lives in Redding, California, and owns land in California and Washington.

2. Ted Turner – Amount of Land: Approx. 2 Million acres

Monetary Worth: Approx. $5.8 Billion

Unless you've been living under a rock, you probably have some idea of who Ted Turner is.He's the founder of Turner Broadcasting System, which was responsible for CNN, and currently owns TBS, TNT, TCM, Cartoon Network, and a host of other entertainment outlets. He is the current Chairman of the United Nations Foundation Board of Directors, and is the former owner of the Atlanta Braves. Ted owns so much land that he can literally ride a horse from Canada to Mexico without stepping off his property.

1. John Malone – Amount of Land: 2.2 Million acres

All the effluents of the first column are subjected to a periodic modulation in time that consists in their subdivision and focusing in adjacent fractions having a constant extension in time by means of modulators (for example, thermal modulators) in which the effluents from the first column are first slowed down (focusing) and then accelerated again for introduction into the second column. Each fraction of the effluents thus modulated, i.e., each gas pulse, is then sent into the second capillary column so as to be further separated and analysed


appears the intensity of the signal at output from the detector downstream of the second column. The peaks in the chromatogram, the height of which is proportional to the intensity of the signal at output from the corresponding detector and the position of which along each axis is a function of the instant of outflow (and hence of volatility) from the column considered of the substance or mixture at output, indicate the presence of a certain substance or mixture of substances.
In particular, the chromatogram is obtained as follows: each effluent, generated by the separation of the sample, can be detected, together with the instant of outflow, at output from the first capillary column, giving rise to a peak of height proportional to its quantity. This technique is theone usually adopted in one-dimensional gas chromatography. The effluents from the first column are then modulated in adjacent fractions, as described above, and each fraction is sent into the second capillary column, where it undergoes a further separation. Downstream of the second capillary column, the effluents from the latter are detected, together with the instant of output, giving rise to a series of peaks of restricted dimensions proportional to the size of each substance or mixture further separated in the second column.
The detection of the peaks at output from the second capillary column, which is obtained via discrete sampling, forms a continuous time series of digital signals in time proportional to the effluents from the second capillary column. To create the chromatogram, the continuous series of digital signals


as each fraction modulated at output from the first capillary column.
In other words, the amplitude of each modulation interval should theoretically coincide with the amplitude of each subset that divides the continuous time series of digital signals acquired.
However, the periodic modulation of the effluents from the first column takes place with a frequency that is determined beforehand on the basis of the characteristics of the first and second columns, whilst the acquisition by discrete points (sampling) of the peaks detectable downstream of the second column is obtained with a frequency of its own of the detector.
This means that the number of points, which are equidistant in time, acquired by the detector downstream of the second capillary column cannot be, and usually is not, perfectly contained in the timeA liposomal hydrogel with enzyme triggered release for infected wound.
A novel liposomal hydrogel with enzyme triggered release of drug as drug carrier was presented for usage of infected wound. The liposomal hydrogel was prepared by an acombined method of thin-film evaporation and supercritical carbon dioxide technique (TE-scCO2) with freeze-drying. In the liposomal hydrogel, curcumin as a model drug was embedded in the bilayer of the liposomes, and the liposomes were encapsulated in the gelatin-chitosan hydrogel. Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) riched in wound exudate was served tactfully as a trigger to hydrolyze lecithin in liposome and destroy the liposomes to release drug. Hydrolysis of phospholipids in liposomes was monitored by fluorescence assay of the released curcumin, and relationship between the hydrolysis of lecithin and the release of drug was discussed.


Evaluation of the burden of logging injuries using West Virginia workers' compensation claims data from 1996 to 2001.
The risks associated with logging are well documented, however little work has been done on estimating the economic impact of injuries among loggers. West Virginia Workers' Compensation claims data for the period 1996-2001 was used to assess the economic burden of logging injuries in the state. There were 1,371 claimants during this period with the highest number of claims (39%) in the 25-34 years age category. The total cost of injuries was over US dollars 14 million. The most severe injuries, traumatic brain injuries (TBI), thoracic, cervical, and lumbar, resulted in the highest medical costs, indemnity costs and permanent disability. The average medical cost for logging-related to TBI was US dollarsThe Sawbone was affixed to a plywood base with 3″ drywall screws to stabilize the model. A miniature balloon was inserted into the central canal at the tested levels and filled with water at light tension to simulate the dural sac. The dorsal exposure was limited by a cardboard box and packing peanuts to simulate the view afforded by an open posterior lumbar approach.

Following the pretest, the blinded evaluator left the testing area. The control group participants then were instructed to leave the room for 40 minutes and allowed to read standard texts regarding performance of lumbar decompressions. The intervention group subsequently underwent a 40-minute training module conducted by a senior resident consisting of a 10-minute multimedia presentation highlighting the steps of the procedure, proper use of surgical


Women opting for the outdoors on their vacations

OCALA NATIONAL FOREST, Fla. — Erika Faulk and her cousin Gale Robinson could have met up for a weekend spa retreat or planned a shopping excursion, but the two middle-aged, suburban moms opted for a weekend learning to shoot guns, build campfires, and track deer deep in the Ocala NationalForest.

Faulk, Robinson, and about 100 other women were taking part in a three-day workshop called "Becoming an Outdoors-Woman." The program began two decades ago in Wisconsin and has spread to 40 states and Canada as a way to teach women the skills needed to enjoy outdoor activities. In Florida, three workshops are held in different parts of the state throughout the year. Organizers say the sessions are so popular, they usually fill up just days after they are announced.

Faulk’s 18-year-old son laughed at her when she told him she was planning a weekend of camping in the woods.

"He said, ‘You are paying money to do this, go outside? You don’t want to go to a Ritz-Carlton?’?" his mother said.

Faulk, who is from the Tampa area, took classes in


archery, boating, and firearms. Robinson’s schedule included a class in outdoor cooking. Robinson, who lives in the Atlanta area, had not been camping since she was child. But the two cousins, both in their 50s and in the pharmaceutical-sales business, said they had a blast sleeping in bunk beds in a cabin shared with other women, hiking in the woods, and experiencing the great outdoors.

The program began in 1991 in Wisconsin after researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point studied why women were less likely than men to participate in some outdoor activities, said Lynne Hawk, an education specialist with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and director of the Florida program.

"The women didn’t feel like they had the skills to be confident and comfortable to beoutdoors doing these activities," Hawk said.

The Wisconsin program was an enormous success and spread from there, she said. States tailor their workshops to outdoor activities common in their areas and teach whatever survival skills are needed in the region. Women may participate in any state program. New Jersey’s program, run by the Division of Fish and Wildlife, was suspended last year, the website says. Pennsylvania does not have a program.

Florida joined the program in 1995. The state Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission usually holds workshops every year near Tallahassee, Ocala, and West Palm Beach.

The Florida program includes courses in boating, kayaking, whitetail deer, fishing, knot-tying, and outdoor photography.

Instructors even teach students how to back a boat trailer into the water and how to tie a boat up to


a dock.

"We think part of the whole boating-safety program is learning to control the boat, control the trailer, and to know the knots necessary to secure the boat to the dock," said Dot Goodwin, a boating-safety instructor. "The husband might want to be in the boat, and then the wife would have to put the boat in the water with the trailer and then bring the trailer away, so she needs to know how to operate it also."

Debbie Hanson had a tough time maneuvering a trailer, hitched to the back of a truck, through a series of traffic cones and into the lake. "What can I say other than it took me five hours," the Estero woman said to roars of laughter from her companions, when finally shehas a first groove, wherein a compressible sealing ring is inserted into the first groove, which can be engaged with the second groove during the guiding of the first pipe connecting piece into the receiving space, or an extendable or respectively expandable sealing ring is inserted into the second groove, which can be engaged with the first groove during the guiding of the first pipe connecting piece into the receiving space.
In the configuration according to DE 10 2013 001 389 A1 the formation of the second groove in the receiving space of the second pipe connecting piece is very complex since this groove constitutes an undercut. During the manufacture of the second groove in the injection molding process, a complex multi-component tool is necessary for its formation.


Carter was allegedly walking through a cemetery and was spotted by a patrolman, who had been hired to guard the funerary grounds because of the ongoing vandalism. The officer reportedly noticed Carter allegedly carrying two packages of matches. When the policeman asked Carter to submit to a DNA test to determine whether he was somehow involved in the vandalism acts, oddly he agreed.

On Veteran’s Day, police were informed by their lab that Carter’s DNA was a perfect match with what was left on one of the burned flags. When questioned by detectives about his involvement in the crimes, Carter denied any wrongdoing.

Investigators are still trying to piece together a motive for Carter’s alleged vandalism.

of 1885 provides, with respect to Miami-Dade County, that:
The electors of Dade County, Florida, are granted power to adopt, revise, and amend from time to time a home rule charter of government for Dade County, Florida, under which the Board of County Commissioners of Dade County shall be the governing body.
*980 FL. CONST. art. VIII, § 6(e), n. 3.[1] This section provides that, in the case of Miami-Dade County, the county charter:
[m]ay grant full power and authority to the Board of County Commissioners of Dade County to pass ordinances relating to the affairs, property and government of Dade County and provide suitable penalties for violation thereof; to levy and collect such taxes as may be authorized by general law and no other taxes, and to do everything necessarytherefore, first examine the current structure of government in Miami-Dade County, under which the Commission is its governing body.

The Present Structure of Miami-Dade County Government
Article 1 of the Charter provides for the existence of a Board of County Commissioners and delineates the powers afforded to the Commission. The powers afforded to the Miami-Dade County Commission, include, among others, the power to:
1. Provide and regulate arterial, toll, and other roads, bridges, tunnels, and related facilities; eliminate grade crossings; provide and regulate parking facilities; and develop and enforce master plans for the control of traffic and parking.
2. Provide and operate air, water, rail, and bus terminals, port facilities, and public transportation systems.
...
4. Provide central records, training and communications for fire and police protection; provide traffic control and central crime investigation;


Planning Advisory Board, a Zoning Appeals Board, and such other boards as it may deem necessary." The Commission is also empowered to appoint the County Attorney as well as the Commission Auditor.
Article 2 of the Charter provides for the Office of the Mayor and establishes the responsibilities of the Mayor. At present, the Charter states the "Mayor shall serve as head of the county government" with the following responsibilities:
A. The Mayor shall within ten days of final adoption by the Commission, *983 have veto authority over any legislative, quasi judicial, zoning, master plan or land use decision of the Commission, including the budget or any particular component contained therein which was approved by the Commission; provided, however, that (1) if any revenue item is vetoed, an expenditure itemin the same or greater dollar amount must also be vetoed and (2) the Mayor may not veto the selection of the chairperson or vice chairperson of the commission, the enactment of commission committee rules, the formation of commission committees, or the appointment of members to commission committees. The Commission may at its next regularly scheduled meeting after the veto occurs, override that veto by a two-thirds vote of the Commission present.
B. When one person succeeds another in the position of Mayor, the successor shall have the right to appoint the Manager, subject to the approval within 14 days of a majority of the Commissioners then in office. The Mayor shall appoint the Manager, subject to the approval within 14 days of a majority of the Commissioners then


in office. The Mayor may remove the Manager subject to the Commission's conducting a hearing within 10 days of said removal and the Commission's overriding the Mayor's action by a two-thirds vote of those Commissioners then in office. Additionally, the Commission by a two-thirds vote of those Commissioners then in office shall be able to remove the Manager.
Article 3 of the Charter presently provides for the existence of a County Manager as the "head of the administrative branch of the county government." Section 3.04 outlines the powers and duties of the County Manager and states:
A. Commencing with the election of Mayor in 1996, the Manager shall be responsible for the administration of all units of the county government under the Manager's jurisdiction, and for carrying out policies adoptedby the Commission. The Manager, or such other person as may be designated by resolution of the Commission, shall execute contracts and other instruments, sign bonds and other evidences of indebtedness, and accept process.
B. Unless otherwise provided for by civil service rules and regulations, the Manager shall have the power to appoint and suspend all administrative department heads of the major departments of the county, to wit: Tax Collector, Tax Assessor, Department of Public Works, Department of Public Safety, Building and Zoning Department, Planning Department, Finance Department, Park and Recreation Department and Internal Auditing Department, except that before any appointment shall become effective, the said appointment must be approved by the County Commission and if same is disapproved the said appointment shall be void. In the event such


or removal of officers and employees in the administrative services of the county, nor shall the Manager or any member of the administrative services accede to such direction or request. Any willful violation of this section by the Mayor or Manager or any County employee shall be grounds for his or her removal.
B. Except for the purpose of transmitting constituent inquiries to the administrative services and other inquiry, as provided in Section 1.01A(20), the Mayor and Commissioners shall deal with the administrative service solely through the County Manager's Office and neither the Mayor nor any Commissioner shall give orders to any subordinates of the Manager, either publicly or privately.
No County employee, other than the County Manager, shall respond to or undertake any action to comply with any requestby the Mayor or any Commissioner which violates the provisions of the preceding paragraph. The County Manager shall not knowingly allow any Commissioner to deal with the administrative services in violation of the provisions of the preceding paragraph.

The Proposed Amendment and its Effects on the Structure of Miami-Dade County Government
Next, we consider the proposed amendment to the Charter and its effects on the powers of the County Commission, Mayor, and County Manager.
With respect to the County Commission, the proposed amendment would alter Article 1 of the Charter as follows (proposed deletions are struck through and proposed additions are underlined):
A. The Board of County Commissioners shall be the legislative and the governing body of the county. The Board of County Commissioners and shall also have certain additional powers including


in managing those affairs of the County under the purview of the Mayor;
(6) Sole authority to dismiss the County Manager;
(7) Sole authority to appoint County representatives to boards, commissions, committees and governmental agencies, unless controlling law vests the power of appointment with the Governor, the County Commission or a County Official other than the Mayor.

(9) Unless otherwise provided for by the Charter or by civil service rules and regulations, the Mayor shall have the power to appoint all administrative department directors of the department of the county.
Also, under section 2.02 of the proposed amendment, the Mayor, and not the County Manager, "shall be responsible for the administration of all departments of the county government and for carrying out policies adopted by the Commission." The proposed amendment would givethe Mayor authority to appoint administrative department directors and representatives to various county boards and committees. As will be discussed below, these additional powers granted to the Mayor are, for the most part, administrative powers, which are currently afforded to the County Manager.
With respect to the powers of the County Manager, which are currently in Article 3, the proposed amendment greatly reduces his/her powers. The proposed amendment would eliminate and transfer the County Manager's powers to the Mayor. The County Manager would then serve "under the direction of the Mayor." Moreover, under the proposed amendment, the Mayor and not the Commission would have the sole authority to dismiss the County Manager. However, the Commission would retain the power to disapprove of the Mayor's selection for County Manager as


government away from the County Commission and, as a result, removes the Commission as the "governing body."
However, such administrative powers have never rested with the County Commission and, in any event, are not the source of the Commission's governing authority. Instead, the proposed amendment primarily alters the administrative powers of the Mayor and those of the County Manager.
These powers of administration, which are currently held by the County Manager, are not "governing body" powers. Otherwise, the County Manager and not the County Commission would be the "governing body." Under the present Charter, the County Manager is not a member of the Commission but is responsible for "carrying out policies adopted by the Commission." Similarly, under the proposed amendment, the Mayor would not be a member of the Commissionbut would be responsible for "carrying out policies adopted by the Commission." Although undoubtedly important, the powers of administration serve to carry out and implement the decisions of the "governing body." Therefore, almost by definition, the proposed transfer of administrative duties from the County Manager to the Mayor would not alter the status of the Commission as the County's "governing body."
Nor would diminished oversight powers of the Commission over administrative responsibilities radically alter the Commission's powers, such that it would no longer be the "governing body." Under both the Charter and the proposed amendment, administrative powers exist to carry out the policies adopted by the Commission. Thus, it is clear that the powers of administration must conform to the dictates and policies of the County Commission and not


vice-versa.
It is suggested by Appellees that the elimination of the County Commission's power to remove the County Manager results in a change in the Commission's status as "governing body" and, as a result, renders the proposed amendment unconstitutional. This contention is utterly flawed.
First, this argument ignores the fact that, under the current Charter, the powers to appoint as well as dismiss the County Manager rest primarily with the Mayor and not the Commission. The Charter provides that the Mayor "shall appoint the Manager," subject only to the Commission approving or disapproving the Mayor's choice for County Manager. The Charter also currently provides that "[t]he Mayor may remove the Manager," which can only be overridden by a two-thirds vote of the Commission after conducting a hearing within ten daysproposed amendment, although the Commission would lose its limited supermajority power to remove the County's head administrator (currently, the County Manager), the voters would gain a majority power to remove the proposed head of administration (the Executive Mayor). Thus, under the proposed amendment, the Commission's limited removal power over the top administrator is not transferred from the Commission to the Mayor but, rather, from the Commission to the people. In doing so, Appellants contend that such a change comports entirely with the introductory words of the Charter, which provide: "This government has been created to protect the governed, not the governing."

Bees Look Forward to Homestand with Sacramento

SALT LAKE CITY - After their longest road trip of the season, the Salt Lake Bees are back at Smith's Ballpark for a brief four-game series with the Sacramento River Cats beginning on Thursday, May 17th.

The Bees return to their home stadium following an eight-game road trip with four-game stops in Sacramento and Fresno. Salt Lake split the first series with the River Cats and lost the second series with the Grizzlies three games to one. Despite the series loss, just the Bees' second series loss of the season, Salt Lake won the final game 3-2 in exciting fashion thanks to a ninth-inning RBI single by David Fletcher.

As a team, the Bees continue to be dominant at the plate, leading the PacificCoast League in runs scored, home runs, RBIs, and slugging percentage. After a call-up to the big leagues, Jabari Blash, who is tied for third in the league with 11 dingers, is back with the squad. Teammate Chris Carter is also tied for third in the league standings with 11 home runs. Fletcher ranks as one of the PCL's top contact hitters, as his .364 average is good for third in league rankings.

While brief, the homestand is expected to be memorable with an exciting lineup of promotions. Thursday's game will be Teacher's Appreciation Night in which all teachers who present a valid ID will receive two complementary tickets to the game. On Friday, the game will take on a viral theme as the team will host Social Media


Night with plenty of memes and social media games and activities to enjoy. Saturday's contest will be dedicated to those who have been impacted by cancer during Pack the Park Pink Night. The team will wear pink jerseys with the name of someone who has been affected by cancer on the back and pink-colored shirts will be sold with the proceeds going to the Huntsman Cancer Foundation. Lastly, on Sunday, the team will host Brunch in the Ballpark, in which $25 will purchase a delicious brunch in one of Smith's Ballpark's viewing patios.ridicule individuals not with their team.

This gave birth to the main one Percenters or Outlaw Bike Clubs. These organizations reduce their a single part patches into three to differentiate themselves from the rest of the law-abiding organizations.

In 2014, the United States government made a commitment to extend NASA’s funding for the International Space Station by four years, from 2020 to 2024. A year later, Russia announced its space agency Roscosmos would also support the ISS mission till 2024, leading many people to consider the orbiting space laboratory may be dismantled at the end of that time.

However, Russia signaled Tuesday it is willing to consider extending the ISS partnership with NASA, and space agencies from Canada, Europe and Japan, beyond 2024. Speaking at the U.S. Space Symposium in Colorado Springs, General Director of Roscosmos Igor


conducts a very large number of scientific experiments and studies. However, it is Russian Soyuz rockets that carry the astronauts to the space station and back. NASA is hoping that a private company like SpaceX or Boeing could develop a rocket that it could use instead of Soyuz by 2024.

For its part, Russia has unveiled a plan for after 2024, which involves detaching its modules from the ISS, and adding some more to them to create a new orbiting outpost. According to a report Tuesday in Russian newspaper Pravda, Roscosmos plans to send three scientific modules to the ISS by 2020. The same report also cited Andrei Ionin, chief analyst of the Russian Academy of Cosmonautics, who said the Russian version of the space station may come into29, Top 40 supplier American Apparel (asi/35297) has named Scott Brubaker as its interim CEO, replacing John Luttrell. The company also appointed Hassan Natha as executive vice president and chief financial officer, and promoted long-time employees Patricia Honda and Nicolle Gabbay to the positions of president of wholesale and president of retail, respectively.

The moves were the first officer appointments the company has made since being effectively taken over by equity firm Standard General in July. That month, founder and former CEO Dov Charney, a member of the Counselor Power 50 and native of Canada, teamed with Standard General, raising his stake in American Apparel to 43%. Shortly after, Standard General gained control of Charney’s entire stake after Charney transferred it to equity firm as collateral for a loan.


we look forward to working with both of them.”

Luttrell, who had been serving as interim CEO and CFO of American Apparel since its ownership shakeup earlier this summer, is resigning from the company, although no reason was given for his resignation. He was named to the interim executive positions after the board of directors removed Charney from his roles. The company has been conducting an investigation into Charney’s actions while he was CEO, and it has not yet said whether he will have an official role with the company moving forward.

However, the board of directors is increasingly open to keeping Charney at the firm, according to a report by Bloomberg. Currently, Charney is serving as a consultant to the Los Angeles-based manufacturer, but the board could offer himRana Plaza building collapse that killed more than 1,100 people, mostly in the garment trade.

Young guns take advantage of footy pathway

Friday, November 13, 2015

NEW SIGNINGS: Andrew Niemoeller, David Munro and Kieran Quabba

The Townsville & Districts Mendi Blackhawks mission to provide a complete pathway for rugby league in North Queensland through to the NRL is well underway with the club this week signing five young guns from the North Queensland Cowboys 2015 NYC side.

The player pathway gap that previously existed for players over the age of 20 is now closed and the Mendi Blackhawks will continue to attempt to provide an opportunity for these young players to continue their development locally when they finish their NYC careers.

Twenty year old Lock Andrew Niemoeller comes to the Townsville & Districts Mendi Blackhawks following a stellar year with the Cowboys NYC side in which he wasnamed NYC Player of the Year for season 2015. The Queensland Under 18 and Under 20 Representative played his junior rugby league for the Norths Devils in Brisbane before signing on with the Cowboys as a scholarship player and eventually going on to captain the NYC side in 2015.

David Munro was born on Cook Island but hails from Darwin in the Northern Territory. Munro represented his home state the Northern Territory in Under 12s, Under 15s and Under 16s before moving to Townsville as a Cowboys Scholarship holder and attending Kirwan High School. Also currently aged twenty, the forward has played for the Cowboys NYC side for past 3 seasons.

Herbert River Crusher’s junior Kieran Quabba grew up in Ingham and moved to Townsville as a Cowboys scholarship holder


during his senior years whilst attending Ignatius Park. Quabba played for the Under 18 Queensland side alongside Niemoeller in 2013 and like his teammate captained the Cowboys NYC side in 2014. The forward is studying to be a teacher at James Cook Univeristy and was recently named in the NYC Academic Team of the Year at the NRL’s Community and Player Education Awards.

Temone Power was born and bred in Bowen and played his junior football for the Bowen Seagulls. Following an outstanding year in the Townsville & Districts Rugby League for the Burdekin Roosters in 2014 Power came to Cowboys on a Train and Trial basis and was selected to play for the NYC side in season 2015.

Bundaberg product Kyle Laybutt moved to Townsville at the beginning of2015 season to try his luck at the Cowboys. Having been a part of the same Queensland Under 18’s side as Quabba and Niemoeller, the five-eighth found plenty of familiar faces in the Cowboys NYC squad and ended up having a significant impact in 2015, helping to steer the side to a Preliminary Final. Laybutt was also the NYC side’s goal kicker so he will provide another kicking option for the Blackhawks in the upcoming season.

Four of the five players will next week be put through their paces when the Mendi Blackhawks squad return to Jack Manski Oval for pre-season training, with Laybutt remaining with the Cowboys training squad for the 2016 preseason.

Further signings will be announced for the 2016 season in the coming weeks.


Challenge Cup expansion announced

The Scottish Challenge Cup is being expanded in season 2016/17 with the introduction of additional clubs from the Highland and Lowland Leagues, all Ladbrokes Premiership u20 teams and two representatives each from the Welsh Premier League and Northern Ireland Football League.

They will join the 30 Ladbrokes Championship, League 1 and League 2 teams to give an overall total of 54 competing in the exciting new competition format across seven rounds, with the majority of fixtures taking place during international weekend breaks.

In addition to the continued support from longstanding competition broadcaster BBC ALBA, the SPFL has also secured new broadcast deals with S4C and Premier Sports to cover selected fixtures live during next year’s Scottish Challenge Cup.

The competition’s new format was devised and approved by theMeghan Takes Over from the Queen as Royal Patron at the National Theatre

Meghan Markle is kicking off the new year with a major new royal responsibility. The Duchess of Sussex is officially taking over from the Queen as the royal patron of the National Theatre. This marks Meghan's first patronage as a member of the royal family, coming almost eight months after she married Prince Harry in May 2018.

The news was first reported by Carolyn Durand and Kate Mansey for The Mail on Sunday. and was confirmed on January 10. Sources told The Mail that the Queen gave her granddaughter-in-law the responsibility "as a mark of her growing confidence in the Duchess," Durand and Mansey report. The Palace formally announced the news on social media revealing that, "Her


Majesty The Queen has passed on two Patronages to The Duchess of Sussex – @NationalTheatre and @The_ACU. The Queen has held the roles for 45 and 33 years respectively."

Her Majesty The Queen has passed on two Patronages to The Duchess of Sussex – @NationalTheatre and @The_ACU. The Queen has held the roles for 45 and 33 years respectively.

It was previously rumored that Meghan would take over the theater patronage after she had a private meeting with its director, Rufus Norris, in December. It's a fitting position for the duchess, who built a career as an actress before becoming a royal.

Meghan's duties as a royal patron will include "strengthening connections between the theatre and American benefactors," The Mail reports. The former actress has an advantage here, as she grewup in the U.S. The role may also involve working with The American Associates of the National Theatre, a New York-based charity that helps raise funds for the theater's productions.

Meghan's sister-in-law, the Duchess of Cambridge, who married into the royal family in 2011, has her fair share of royal patronages. They range from various museums (a nod to the duchess's love of art) to child care charities. Her first patronage was for The Royal Foundation, which was announced in October 2011, six months after her wedding to Prince William.

These people are some of society's most vulnerable, and yet they are living in homes that are not warm enough, do not contain modern facilities or are in a general state of disrepair. The chances of getting ill or having an accident are huge.

One of the saddest things I read while investigating community spirit was to learn that one million people in the UK may not have spoken to another human being in a month. And, for an estimated five million older people living alone, TV is their closest companion.

HMS Caledonia (1862)

HMS Caledonia was a broadside ironclad of the . Originally laid down as a two-decker steam ship of the line of the Bulwark class, Caledonia was converted on the building stocks into an armoured frigate.

Service history
HMS Caledonia was not completed until July 1865 due to a delay in the delivery of her main armament. Once this was installed, she was commissioned as Second-in-Command of the Mediterranean Fleet, becoming the first ever armoured flagship of the Royal Navy.

She was temporarily withdrawn from service in 1866 for reconstruction which involved the addition of a poop deck. Following this, she was flagship of the Channel Fleet until 1867, when she was paid off for re-armament.

Real Salt Lake has chosen to move on from head coach Jeff Cassar just three games into the 2017 Season. A look at the potential fallout and new coach.

Following a slow and sluggish start to the new year, RSL has dismissed head coach Jeff Cassar. Real Salt Lake has not won a match since August of last year. Cassar’s overall stint has mostly been filled with frustration, as the team struggled at various time throughout his tenure.

Cassar took over for Jason Kreis following Real’s 2013 MLS Cup run, after Kreis announced he would be moving on from RSL and leading NYCFC in their inaugural season. Kreis led RSL through the most successful years in the club’s short history, and Cassar definitely had large shoes to fill.

The timing seemsman for the Fort Lauderdale Strikers of the NASL from 2010 to 2013 before coming to RSL.

The team also announced that the technical staff would remain the same. The appointment of Shore was also a surprise in itself, as former MLS Supporters’ Shield winner Mike Petke was hired to coach the Monarchs this off-season.

Petke led the New York Red Bulls to the Shield in 2013 and the Eastern Conference Finals in 2014, before being controversially replaced by current coach, Jesse Marsch. With Petke not being giving the head role immediately, one has to question if he will be given an opportunity at all. A sentiment shared by the MLS Armchair Analyst, Matt Doyle.

Previous to Cassar replacing Kreis, a similar coaching change was made by the club. The team


chose to move on from John Ellinger just four games into the season, with then captain Kreis immediately retiring to take over as head coach. The team could tempt fate twice, as they have called a press conference involving captain Kyle Beckerman and an” important announcement”. At the time of this writing, it remains to be seen what the details of the conference pertain to.

Daryl Shore could have a good chance to build on his experience and a good run could land him a long-term gig. The Seattle Sounders chose a similar path after moving on from long time coach Sigi Schmid mid-season. Seattle gave long-time assistant, Brian Schmetzer an interim position (along with Nico Lodeiro), and the club went on to win MLS Cup with one ofthe most dramatic turnarounds in MLS history.

Bringing in MLS Experience

Sigi Schmid could be an easy option to replace Cassar. Schmid is no stranger to MLS, having coached the Galaxy from 1999 to 2004, then taking over Columbus in 2006 before landing the Seattle job in 2009, becoming the first MLS coach in the team’s history. Sigi was released in similar fashion to Cassar, with the lack of results and under performance being the main factors in the mid-season change. The similarities could cause the club to look in a different direction.

Wade Barrett is another MLS name who has been thrown around as an option for the club. Barrett took over the Houston Dynamo in May last year, following the dismissal of Owen Coyle. With the change, Barrett took


a Houston team who was 3-7-2 under Coyle to a 4-7-11 record to finish out the year. Many thought Barrett deserved a shot as a head coach, but Houston ultimately chose to go with the more experienced Wilmer Cabrera, and are off to good start for 2017. With Houston’s quick turnaround, the RSL front office could have taken note.

Bringing in Fresh Blood

While the sample size is small, the immediate success of foreigners Patrick Viera with NYCFC and Tata Martino with Atlanta United cannot go unnoticed. Team owner, Dell Loy Hansen could take this chance to splash on a big name coach himself. While RSL has traditionally been known as a small-market, small-budget team, things under Hansen have shown a little bit differently. From stadium upgrades, to the newShadowAg

Maria Mercurial

Description:

Maria Mercurial is one of the most popular music stars on the scenes in the 2050’s. With her own custom ‘ware, she plugs into a synthlink and lets her movements create the music. Currently the wife of Armando Hernandez, things weren’t always looking up for Maria.

Years ago, she was the personal secretary, bodyguard, and mistress to Reynaldo Texamachach, a senior exec with Aztechnology. To assist him, he had Maria implanted with custom cyberware; jacked up reflexes, cyberlimbs, a custom datajack, and headware memory unit.

Turns out that custom ware, mixed with a BTL addiction wasn’t conducive to a working relationship, and Maria snapped one day. Killing her employer, she bolted.

She was found on the streets of Aztlan, working in a brothel, unaware of who she was, or who


she had been. Hernandez, having just heard her songs, knew she needed to be free of that life, and she needed to perform. He freed her from that life, and started her music career.

Then, with a little tampering from the Yakuza, Maria discovered “evidence” that Hernandez was dealing in BTLs, and she left him. Her contract was almost up, so she joined up with Max Foley, another big name is music production, amIright? During the final days of her contract, word was spread discreetly that Foley was seeking protection, because Hernandez had issued some death threats.

Always in need of work, our Runners took the job and kept her as safe as they thought necessary, but that wasn’t so easy when someone on the inside was sabotaging their efforts.Man in China drives a $1500 teddy bear in his Porsche to impress a woman…. but alas

India’s eVisa programme allows foreign travellers to apply for their Indian visa online. Once the application is approved, travellers receive an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) by an email. The ETA permits their travel to India which has to be within the period mentioned on the ETA. On arrival at the port of entry where the eVisa facility is available, travellers have to present their printed ETA to the immigration authorities who would then stamp the travellers passport thereby permitting entry into the country. Travellers can then travel within India up until the expiry date of the stamped visa in their passport.

For Trump and many of his supporters, the phrase has never been just a phrase but a carefully worded departure from the Obama administration's - and the Bush administration's - understanding of the world and the U.S. government's role in combating terrorism.

Former President Barack Obama used the phrase "violent extremism," which severed the violence carried about by terrorists from any immediate association with theology. Trump and many of his associates, meanwhile, have been explicit about their belief that Western democracy is at war with Islam.

"We cannottest may come Tuesday night, when Trump delivers his first speech as president to a joint session of Congress. The speech arrives only days after Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster, Trump's national security adviser, urged the president in a closed-door meeting to refrain from using the words "radical Islamic terrorism," according to Politico.

McMaster's reasoning, according to CNN, is that terrorists who profess to act in accordance with Islam aren't true adherents of the religion but anomalies who pervert its teachings. McMaster argued that using the phrase "radical Islamic terrorism" damages the country's ability to partner with key allies, many of whom are Muslim.

"The trouble with the phrase 'radical Islamic terrorism' is that it makes no distinction between the variants that are Sunni and Shiite, which are radically different," said


Bruce Hoffman, director of Georgetown's Center for Security Studies. "I think there are important distinctions, and if you say 'radical Islamic terrorism' does that lump in groups like Hamas, for example?"

"The engine that drives policy should always be specific enough to link means to ends," he added.

Trump's use of the phrase not only departs from his immediate predecessor in the White House but also from the Bush administration, which was at the helm during the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks that ushered the United States into its contemporary struggle against terrorism.

During an appearance on NBC News' "Today" show this week, former president George W. Bush reiterated his long-standing position that the terrorism threat is not a religious war but an ideological one.

The Estate at Florentine Gardens isPolice in Lyon are investigating claims that two players from top French club Lyon raped a 38-year-old woman.

One of the players involved is Lyon striker Bafetimbi Gomis, who has not yet been questioned.

The official said: "A statement was made to police at the end of the evening, but the victim has not lodged a complaint nor been interviewed by police."

The police statement followed reports of the alleged incident in local media.

According to the Lyon Capitale website the incident took place early this morning after a 38-year-old woman was invited to Gomis's apartment along with another, non-identified player.

The report added: "The woman accuses both players of rape. She revealed everything to a friend who came to pick her up in the middle of the night."

Police have confirmed they are


probing the allegations, but said neither suspect had been questioned -- as several media reports have claimed.

It is not the first time top players in the French league have been accused of rape.

Marseille striker Brandao, a Brazilian, was charged with rape on March 9, 2011.

He was accused of raping a 24-year-old woman whom he had met in a nightclub.

He was granted bail and subsequently loaned to Brazilian club Cruzeiro before returning to the French club in January.We shall affirm.

STATEMENT OF FACTS
In 1999, the appellant and his wife, Mary Hayes were living together at 2667 South Woodloch in Conroe, Texas. On July 13, 1999 the appellant told his stepson that his wife was having an affair and that "[he did not] think that he could forgive her like she forgave me." Cathy Varner also testified that during the week of July 16, 1999 the appellant suspected an affair between Mary Hayes and Gary Hurt, Mrs. Hayes's co-worker.[2] Mr. Hurt testified that the appellant called him about the affair and said: "Don't you know that people get killed over these things?"
On July 16, 1999 between 10:45 and 11:00 p.m., Paula Odendalski, the appellant's neighbor, heard a shrill, high-pitched noise and saw Lauren Hayes, the appellant's ten-year-old


daughter, running across the street. Ms. Odendalski met Lauren in her driveway and asked her what was happening. Lauren was screaming and said that her father was trying to kill her mother. Ms. Odendalski called 911 at 10:51 p.m. Lauren told the 911 operator that she heard her mother and the appellant fighting. The appellant was hitting Mrs. Hayes on the head and chased her into Lauren's bedroom. Lauren ran into the bedroom and saw that the appellant had shot her mother in the hand. Mrs. Hayes tried to crawl under Lauren's bed to escape. Hazel Hayes, the appellant's mother, also ran to the room and tried to stop the appellant. At that point, Lauren ran out of the house and heard several more shots. During the 911phone conversation Lauren also told the operator that she thought that the appellant left the house in a black Chevy Suburban truck.
The police arrived and found Hazel Hayes wailing inside of the house. She told the police that the appellant and Mrs. Hayes were fighting over Mrs. Hayes's alleged affair and that she tried to stop the appellant, but it didn't work. She said that he reloaded his gun and asked her for a kiss before he drove away. The police found the body of Mary Hayes in Lauren Hayes's bedroom. There was blood on the wall and the bed and brain matter and skull fragments on the floor. Dr. Parungao, the assistant medical examiner of Harris County, testified that she was shot *813 seven times, three times


in the head, once in the left shoulder blade, twice in the back, and once in the hand.[3] Two of the wounds were close contact wounds, fired within six inches of the body. The victim's head was described as "shattered" and "crushed." The police also recovered eight "spent" .44 magnum cartridge casings at the scene.
Shortly after killing his wife, the appellant drove to the Diamond Shamrock gas station at FM 3083 and Creighton Road in Montgomery County. A witness testified that she saw the appellant lead the clerk, Rosalyn Robinson, out of the store at gunpoint to Ms. Robinson's white Ford Mustang. As the witness started to drive away she heard a gunshot.
When the police arrived on the scene they found Ms. Robinson lying on the ground infront of the appellant's black Suburban, alive, but unresponsive. Later Ms. Robinson died. Dr. Parungao testified that the cause of death was multiple gunshot wounds to the head and abdomen. Ms. Robinson was shot three times, once in the abdomen, once in the right arm, and once in the face. Ms. Robinson's white Mustang was missing.
A man named Vale Yates testified that later that same evening he stopped at a Super 8 Motel in Cleveland, Texas. He was having some trouble with the starter in his Chevy Blazer, so he left the truck running while he went inside to check in. When he returned, his Blazer was gone and parked behind where it had been was Rosalyn Robinson's white Mustang. Inside the Mustang was an overnight bag containing


prescription medications bearing the appellant's name, a cartridge carrier, and three spent shell casings.
The Polk County Sheriff's Department received a dispatch at 12:20 a.m. to report to a Dandy Double truck stop in Polk County, Texas to apprehend a potential suspect from Montgomery County. Sharon Glass and her husband reported that a man driving a Chevy Blazer asked them for a jump in the parking lot. When he turned to the side, Mrs. Glass saw a large gun tucked into the waistband of his pants. When the deputy sheriff apprehended the appellant, he was walking south across the Dandy Double parking lot with his shirt off and tucked into his waistband. The officers yelled at him to put his hands up, and the appellant turned and pulled awaymurder was cold-blooded and calculated. The appellant's weapon was not automatic and had only a six-round capacity. Since the appellant shot at his wife eight times, he had to stop and manually unload and then reload more ammunition before shooting at her at least twice more. Furthermore, the appellant's defense of passion does not explain the unprovoked murder of Rosalyn Robinson. According the store's surveillance tape which was admitted at trial, the appellant took Ms. Robinson's keys and led her by gunpoint to her car where he shot her three times. Before the appellant shot Ms. Robinson he transferred his overnight bag to her car. These facts reflect the planning and calculation that was involved in these crimes.
The State also presented evidence that the appellant lacked remorse about


the murders after he was arrested. Two weeks after his arrest, the appellant asked an attendant why he was placed on suicide watch at the Montgomery Jail infirmary. The attendant replied that "it should be obvious [because] he murdered two people and we were concerned about his state of mind." The inmate looked directly into the attendant's face and replied that "he had nothing to be suicidal about and that he had no suicidal thoughts whatsoever."
The appellant's long criminal history of escalating violent offenses permit a rational jury to conclude that the appellant would continue to be a threat to society. Accordingly, we hold that the evidence is legally sufficient to support the jury's affirmative answer to the future dangerousness issue. Point of error one is overruled.

BRADY CLAIM
InNOVEMBER 30--Been wondering about the identity of the auteur behind the "2 Girls, 1 Cup" video that has been making millions of Internet users gag?

Well, the repulsive video--which has become such an online sensation that it has been knocked off by John Mayer and Perez Hilton, and has launched tons of hilarious "reaction" videos--can be blamed on Marco Fiorito, a Brazilian man who describes himself as a "compulsive fetishist" and "an artist in the art of movie making."

The 36-year-old Sao Paulo resident became interested in cinema in 1994 and, two years later, began a fetish film business with his wife. "When we started, the only films that we made were about feet fetishes," Fiorito recalled in a court declaration, a copy of which you'll find here.

Fiorito would move


on to more revolting fare, with his videos often involving excrement (as the "2 Girls, 1 Cup" video shows). That film was produced by MFX-Video, one of several Fiorito companies that included his initials in their name (an exception, of course, was the firm Vomit Brazil).

While Fiorito contends that his revolting films are not illegal in Brazil, some of his works have been branded obscene by U.S. prosecutors and led last year to the indictment of Danilo Croce, a Brazilian lawyer who lived in Florida and was listed on corporate documents as an officer of a company distributing Fiorito's films. In his legal declaration, which was filed in U.S. District Court in Orlando, Fiorito contended that Croce, 43, had no role in his movie business, other than helpingefforts to tighten the market and disruptions like Venezuela is a surge in U.S. oil supply.

The United States will drive global oil supply growth over the next five years, adding another 4 million barrels per day (bpd) to the country’s already booming output, the International Energy Agency said on Monday.

U.S. crude oil output will rise nearly 2.8 million bpd, growing to 13.7 million bpd in 2024 from an average of just under 11 million bpd in 2018, the IEA said, making the United States by far the biggest oil producer in the world.

With U.S. production booming, the country needs to import less and is increasingly turning abroad to sell surplus oil.


Image copyright AFP Image caption North Korea also fired two short-range ballistic missiles last Wednesday

North Korea has fired two projectiles which South Korean officials say appear to have been a new type of short-range missile.

The launch, the third in just over a week, came from North Korea's east coast early on Friday.

The string of tests are being seen as reaction to planned military exercises between South Korea and the US.

On Thursday, the UK, France and Germany called on North Korea to engage in "meaningful" talks with the US.

After a closed-door meeting at the UN Security Council, the countries said international sanctions needed to be fully enforced until Pyongyang had dismantled its nuclear and ballistic missile programmes.

The latest launches happened at 02:59 (17:59 GMT Thursday) and 03:23 local timefrom the Yonghung area in South Hamgyong province into the Sea of Japan, also known as the East Sea, according to South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS).

It said the missiles flew very low - at about 25km (15 miles) - and travelled about 220km. Analysts said they appeared to have been unusually fast.

A spokesperson from South Korea's presidential office said there was a high possibility they were a new type of short range ballistic missile, similar to those fired last week.

The launch site appeared to have been a new one, said Ankit Panda, adjunct senior fellow at the Federation of American Scientists.

However US President Donald Trump said he was not worried with the recent spate of launches, as they were "very standard" and not part of recent


talks with Kim Jong-un.

What about the other tests?

On Wednesday, the North launched two missiles that flew 250km and reached a height of 30km before landing in the Sea of Japan, also known as the East Sea, according to South Korea.

The South identified the missiles as a different type from previous models. But on Thursday, Pyongyang gave a different assessment, saying it had tested a new rocket launcher system, without providing details.

On 25 July, the North had fired two other missiles, one of which travelled about 690km.

That launch was the first since Mr Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un held an impromptu meeting in June at the demilitarised zone (DMZ), an area that divides the two Koreas, where they agreed to restart denuclearisation talks.

Media playback is unsupported onand the county prosecutor appeared as counsel.
The director moved to dismiss the first count as an untimely petition for review under § 302.311. That section confers on one whose license is revoked by the director the status of aggrieved party and the right of review to the circuit court within thirty days after notice of the administrative revocation. The motion to dismiss by the director assumes that the first count seeks review of the earlier incident of revocationthat of August, 1987and addresses that order. Indeed, the petition for review as pleaded by Ezenwa gives that understanding, and the answer to the petition by the director allows no other understanding. The associate circuit judge sustained the motion and ordered the petition for review and the adjunct application for hardship


the order of the director under § 302.311. The prosecutor was present, but tacit.
This indistinctiveness of pleading, procedure and proof pervaded the proceedings, and they came to nothing. The order of the associate circuit judge notwithstanding, the grant of relief on the petition for review so to enable the adjunct application for the hardship privilege was a non-adjudication. It is from this judgment as formulated that the director of revenue appeals.
A review to the circuit court of a motor vehicle license revocation is de novo and proceeds in the manner provided by chapter 536. § 302.311. The decision of the director to revoke the Ezenwa license upon the affidavit of the officer that he refused to take the chemical tests is in a noncontested case, and so isor not he refused?
Counsel for Ezenwa:
Well, heif he had known that he was being revoked for refusing to take the chemical test, then he would have challenged it.
The Court:
He knew he was going to be revoked.
Counsel for Ezenwa:
Yeah, he
The Court:
He had been told that he was going to be revoked, right?

[4]  The kinship is virtual, but not equivalent. Section 536.150.1 withholds from the circuit court on review the prerogative to "substitute its discretion for discretion legally vested" in the administrative agency.
[5]  There was no issue that the official actions the statutes require antecedent to a valid revocation of license for refusal to submit to a chemical test had been taken. Authenticated copies of the affidavit of the officer of the refusal of chemical test by Ezenwa on June 18, 1988, the driving record of the licensee, and the notice of loss of driving privilege as mailed to Ezenwa to his last known address on June 29, 1988, were part of the pleadings of both Ezenwa and the director. Those records were valid evidence. § 302.312,More Wildfires Bring Focus On How All That Smoke May Harm Firefighters

Enlarge this image toggle caption Jes Burns/OPB Jes Burns/OPB

When Timothy Ingalsbee thinks back on his days in the 1980s and '90s fighting wildfires in the Pacific Northwest, he remembers the adventure of jumping out of a helicopter into the wilderness, and the camaraderie of being on a fire crew.

"We just slept in a heap," he says, "on the ground under the stars, or smoke-filled skies."

But Ingalsbee, who went on to found the Eugene, Ore.-based Firefighters United for Safety, Ethics and Ecology, doesn't like to remember all that smoke.

Some seasons, he says, "I lost my sense of smell and taste for several months. It wasn't until maybe the next spring it started coming back."

As wildfires have grown more


cancer, heart and lung disease, and even mental health issues, says Rick Swan, a 30-year veteran of CalFire, and health and safety director with the International Association of Firefighters, a labor union.

But wildland firefighters have largely been left out of the research.

"Everyone used to say, 'It's just a barbecue fire. It's just, you know, wood. It's no big deal,' " he says.

Now, it's known that forest fire smoke is full of compounds and components that are regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency.

Wildland firefighters and crews are exposed to fine particulate matter that can absorb deep into the lungs. They breathe carbon monoxide that can cause a significant and immediate loss in cognitive function.

In addition, there are a host of other toxins such as acrolein, nitrogen dioxide, benzene andformaldehyde in the smoke. There's also the potential for exposure to smoke laced with chemicals from herbicides that were applied to forests before they caught fire.

Researchers with the U.S. Joint Fire Science Program have found that workers are exposed to the highest levels of particulate matter when they're holding fire lines and working mop-up after a fire has burned through.

And the smoke exposure often doesn't end at the fire zone.

"Some of the worst air can be in fire camp, where you're supposed to go for rest," Ingalsbee says. Often, the camps that house and feed fire workers and support personnel are located in valley bottoms, where wildfire smoke can get trapped.

"You wake up in fire camp with people coughing and hacking up," he says. "They call it camp
