The lawsuit alleges Ausler was using the Uber app at the time of the 11:30 a.m. collision even though doing so causes drivers to be distracted.

An Uber representative did not immediately reply to a request for comment.

According to the complaint filed Friday, Ausler was driving west with a passenger on Beverly Boulevard when he made a left turn into the path of Nunes, who was on a motorcycle. Nunes was propelled into the air and landed on the pavement, where he was given CPR by a good Samaritan.

“Unfortunately, Mr. Nunes succumbed to his injuries and died moments later,” according to the lawsuit.

John de Moels, 1st Baron Moels (1269–20 May 1310), feudal baron of North Cadbury in Somerset, was an English peer.

He was the second son of Roger de Moels (c.1233-1295) the eldest surviving son and heir of Nicholas de Moels (died 1269), feudal baron of a moiety of North Cadbury, Somerset.

From 1296 to 1309 he received various summonses for military service against the Scots and in Flanders. He was summoned to attend the king at Salisbury 24 February 1296/7 and to a military council at Rochester 8 September 1297. In 1297 the Sheriff of Dorset was ordered to provide housing within Sherborne Castle for John and his wife "to live in during the king's pleasure".

January 27th, mark your calendars well, for the time quickly approaches and the arduous road to crowning the best team in Korea will begin. The battlefield on which the best teams in Korea pit themselves against each other already smolders, the ground soaked with the blood, tears, and Pocari Sweat of both champions and the fallen alike. Many teams may enter the arena, but only one may emerge the champion. Only one team in Korea can hold the crown, and that team lives a hard life. One of long days, low wages, and underappreciation: The Life of a SCV. Pushed aside by many as "falling apart", Team SCV Life shall rise from the ashes


Korea. His brain is huge, the average person only uses 10% of their brain, but Polt uses the whole thing. He's always thinking up strategies to beat the other team, EVEN WHEN HE'S SLEEPING.

Look:

Polt doesn't even trust his computer. He uses his brain. He's THAT smart. Scary isn't it? His name is even an anagram for Plot. He's THAT far ahead of you. He even thinks up strategies for his teammates, like: See that face? That's the face of a champion. Scratch that, not just any champion, but the Super Champion. That's right, that's TSLPolt , the only Super Champion in all of Starcraft 2. He plays for TSL. He is so mighty that many fans pretend not to know who he is, for fear of his awesomewrath. His favorite unit? The Marauder. That's right. The Marauder. The unit that everyone, Terran Protoss OR Zerg is afraid of. Where does he go to school?

War Zerg on the TSL roster,Already making good on his promise to prove himself to the community within 3 months, HyuN and Symbol are ready for their rise in 2012. With these two on the team leading the way in hard work and dedication there's nothing they can't accomplish.

Cyrano, the lone Protoss on the TSL roster is finally ready for his debut. Training in a cave in secret with Coach Lee for months, Cyrano has been honing his skill for the advent of 2012. The Artosis Pylon of TSL, Cyrano has a lot of pressure on his shoulders, but if he couldn't handle it Coach Lee would not have hand selected him for this task. Under the watchful eye of Coach Lee, Cyrano has been learning from notonly the TvP monster that is Polt, but also with the incredible Zerg talent of Symbol, HyuN and RevivaL. Coach Lee's plan to restructure his team is finally coming to fruition after months of hard work, which brings me to my next point: It's no secret that one of the main reasons of successful Brood War teams was the superb coaching, so who better to lead this amazing team than a former Brood War Coach?

Led by former MBC Game Heroes Coach Lee Woon Jae, you don't have to worry about decisions like you do with Incredible Miracle's coach. Most Starcraft 2 coaches appear to bend to the will of their players, but not Coach Lee. Coach Lee isn't afraid to cut players from the team because they don't


preform. He's focused all of his effort in 2011 to hone his team to razor sharp skill levels, and it's time for them to shine in 2012.

Irish gambling group Flutter Entertainment, which owns Sportsbet, on Wednesday announced it would merge with Canada's Stars Group, which owns BetEasy, in an all-share deal that will create the world's largest online betting company.

The deal comes at a time of consolidation in the gambling industry in Australia and internationally as operators face stiff competition and tightening profit margins. The BetEasy brand, for example, was born out of CrownBet's takeover of William Hill Australia.

tracking what they're doing and who they're talking to – then plotting to use them as a scapegoat or accuse them of leaks. One U.S. official voiced concern over even talking to superiors about a benign call from a reporter. The agency this official works for had started limiting staff access to information, they said, and it would make it far easier to figure out who was talking to people in the media. There was suspicion, the official said, that the agency was even tracking what they printed, to keep tabs on what information they were accessing. "I'm just trying to keep my head down," another U.S. intelligence official recently told POLITICO. A half dozen officials across the national security community described to POLITICO a series of subtlecarnivalesque relationship between the Cynical ethics of truth to the otherwise dominant philosophy – that such internal contradictions are analysed. Gramsci wants to understand the conflicts within civil society and the conflicts between intellectuals. From his point of view the intellectuals, as servants of the superstructure, develop the concepts with which the subaltern are dominated by the bourgeoisie. Gramsci is therefore not so interested in the all-encompassing rationality of a power technology or in the contingent coherence of a discourse and its internal power effects. What interests him more, is the way in which such a discourse can bring very different ruling powers to a compromised and yet precarious unity with those they rule. Gramsci is to a certain extent 'more historical' than Foucault. Foucault often asserts that


and masculinism – overlap or can even be perceived as substituted or conflated, and converge ultimately in the figure of Benito Mussolini.

The transition from Italian dictatorship in the 1940s to French Fifth Republic in the 1960s is not a directly linear history of thought, as we move from the notion of 'subaltern' in Antonio Gramsci's texts to 'subjugated knowledges' in Michel Foucault's analyses. The most significant similarity in both critics' writings is the preoccupation with history and the position as well as role of 'other' narratives of peoples who have not attained political and cultural legitimacy within hegemonic conditions. An interviewer, asking Foucault about geography, points out that Foucault privileges time—see issue about periodization and layers of events ( _Questions on Geography_ , Foucault 1980: 67).

Legend of Zelda

The Nintendo Switch had an excellent 2017, which was driven in part by Nintendo's focus on putting a bunch of first-party franchises on the console early. Part of the way Nintendo achieved this was by porting games from the Wii U over to the Switch, as it did with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Pokken Tournament DX. We learned today that Nintendo is going to continue this trend of porting old Wii U games over to the Switch, as it announced two more games today during its Direct Mini broadcast.

While 2017 was a rough year in many regards, it was one of the best for gaming. This past year was packed with so many excellent releases that making a list of the best could very wellfor video games, and on December 7, Geoff Keighley will attempt to distinguish the best of the best with the fourth installment of The Game Awards. Keighley took to YouTube today to announce the nominees for all of The Game Awards' categories this year, and it seems to be a packed year for awards. Game of the Year for 2017 should be a particularly tight race, as it's packed with five games that are very much loved among players.

Now that it's officially November, it's time to begin looking forward to (or dreading, depending your perspective) Black Friday. Nintendo is definitely excited, as it's announced the deals it has on deck for Black Friday shoppers. Some of the best revolve around The Legend of Zelda series, so if you've


like anything related to the intersection of Nintendo and mobile, it's exact form is still unknown.

Breath of the Wild has cemented its place in history with record-breaking success and rave reviews. If Nintendo's numbers are to be believed, it's the best Zelda installment yet. It doesn't hurt that it is, for all intents and purposes, the Nintendo Switch's launch title. Riding on that success, Nintendo is now teasing some of the things players can expect from the game's first DLC, which seems to revolve around giving players a harder time.

Back at GDC in March, just before The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild launched, Nintendo made an unprecedented revelation. It showed the tool it used to quickly prototype some of Breath of the Wild's gameplay mechanics andand also things like The Brainiac and another MST3K entry, The Robot vs. The Aztec Mummy. Generally, I try watching the original films instead of (or as well as) Murray’s English dubs. Mexican horror films, in particular, from the late 50s and early 60s are fantastic and I’d rather see them in their natural state than watch a dubbed/edited version.

The original version of Santa Claus was directed by René Cardona. Cardona was a prolific director, chalking up 145 credits to his name, including several Santo titles. His Santa Claus is strange, terrifying (to this adult woman, anyway), and, oddly, sort of charming.

Santa is at his place in the North Pole on Christmas Eve. Instead of elves, he has children representing countries all over the world as helpers. Pretty,


world including the course that played host to the 2016 Olympic Games in Brazil.

The first thing that caught my attention was the view. From inside the sleek clubhouse, called The Bone Tavern, which is glass on all sides, you can see the spectacular layout that Hanse and his team built on old mining land owned by the Mosaic company. The landscape looks nothing like any other courses in Florida, aside from the neighboring Blue and Red runs on property.

The major difference between Black, Red, and Blue is that Black stands alone. Red and Blue are intertwined and sight lines from both courses provide directives for shots on the hole you’re currently playing. On Black, Hanse had to be a little creative to provide dynamic shot points for players.Belconnen's History

In terms of urban settlement
Belconnen is forty years old in 2006. Development started
at Aranda in 1966 and eventualy moved out, the most
recent urban development being Dunlop and Bruce. Belconnen
had been settled by Europeans farmers since the mid
1800s and some traces of agricultural activity remain.
Before then it had been the home of the Ngunnawal people
for some thousands of years.

Pre-June 1966

Pre-June 1966 Or How it
was.
The line of the original full-blooded Aboriginal
inhabitants (Ngunawal people) of the area is believed
to have ended with the death in Queanbeyan of
Nellie Hamilton, ("Queen" Nellie (c1835-1897)).
Nellie was the wife


of the Aboriginal Ginninderra
cricketer Bobby Hamilton.

Many of the older settlers had moved on and the
district had waned since land acquisitions had
commenced in 1913. The Ginninderra school had
been closed in 1911 when the new school at Hall
opened.

There was a small reprieve for the district when
several of the former major properties were partially
sub-divided into soldier settlement blocks in
the years following the return of troops from
World War 1.

The Ginninderra Police Station had closed in
1927 and the Ginninderra Post Office had closed
in 1962.

The cemeteries at St. Paul's (The church &
school had been officially opened in October 1861
but activity had ceased about 1900 and the manse
and other remaining buildings were in disrepair.
The cemetery was desecrated by the construction
of the suburb of Evatt and a few interments outside
the formal grounds were lost forever) andWeetangerra
(The Methodist church had been moved from Lyneham
to the site in 1873 and 44 burials were recorded
in this cemetery. The church was dismantled in
195? and a small stone cairn was erected on the
site) had closed and there was no active church
(ref. Pioneer Parson of Early Canberra: Rev. Pierce
Gilliard Smith, Minister of St. John the Baptist
Church, Reid (1855-1905), John Cope, 2006, Ginninderra
Press, Charnwood, ACT.).

in 1923. He raised pigs and horses and cultivated
potatoes),


Belconnen and Melrose (Off the old
Charnwood Road near the intersection with the
old Weetangera Road; around the present section
34 Holt) were occupied (Much of this early history

former 'Charnwood' property were reportedly destroyed
on instructions from the NCDC in the early 60s
in the name of safety), which had been established
in 1886 and was an active settlement was included
in the district.

Built adjoining the former Weetangerra Public
School which had not been used since the end of
World War 2, the Weetangerra Post Office / telephone
exchange (A telephone switchboard had beeninstalled
in 1926) was still partially operating and occupied
as a residence by Leslie & Barbara Tong. It
had been constructed in the early 20s from one
of the Molonglo Internment Camp buildings, which
had been transported to the site in 3 sections
(ref. The Molonglo Mystery, Alan Foskett, 2006,

Judy
the Great as compiled by

Elizabeth
Burness

Mrs Julia Webb known as ‘Judy the Great’

Mrs Julia Webb was a remarkable woman. She was


the type
of woman every frontier town needed in colonial Australia.
Nothing was too difficult for her and it was a dreadful
shame that she did not live longer than her fifty seven
years.

Born in 1820 in Kilkenny, Ireland, she married John
Webb in 1840 and together they set off for the other
side of the world as Bounty migrants on the ‘Portland’
in 1841.
Already pregnant with Arthur, the first of her ten children,
including two sets of twins, it took John and Julia,
known as Judy, six weeks to travel from Sydney to the
Limestone Plains, (Canberra).

John and Julia stayed in the northern part of Canberra,
initially at Glenwood Station, just past Hall, owned
by James McCarthy who employed a substantial number
of Irish Catholic workers, including John. Once they
had settled in they moved to Henry Hall’s Charnwood
Station, now inthe suburb of Fraser, and then finally
to part of the Springbank Estate near the O’Connor
Shopping Centre.

By this stage Judy had established herself as a nurse,
a midwife and someone who could be called on to prepare
the dead for burial. She attended some horrific cases
including Mrs Wells who some accounts say was attacked
by her husband with an axe. Her skill as a midwife was
legendary in that she reputedly never lost a child.

But early northern Canberra was no place for a nervous
lady. Indeed there were very few women in the region
as many of the early landowners had used assigned convict
labour as mainly shepherds for their vast unfenced holdings.
Judy was unfazed by these generally very lonely men
although she is reputed to have carried a hand gun.
She met with the notorious ‘Bungendore Bushranger’,
‘Jackey


and when she died seventeen years later, of fatty
degeneration of the heart, the community paid for a
handsome headstone for her. She was ’esteemed
by all’, not bad for a woman who could read but
not write, but had served her community in many ways,
and could be relied on by everyone in the frontier community
that became the National Capital. Sadly her infant sons
are not acknowledged on her gravestone.

This piece on Judy the great was compiled by Elizabeth
Burness, Elizabeth is continuing her research and would
love to hear from you. she can be contacted on 6161
6383barley, Job's tears (a type of grain-bearing plant native to south-east Asia), and tubers. The grains were likely ground into a mash and heated on the stove, using the wide-mouthed pots found in the pits. After they had been fermented, a funnel was used to strain the leftover grains from the brew as they were transferred into amphorae for storage. The resulting alcoholic beverage may have been a far cry from the ales and lagers of today, but it can still make a claim to being one of the first craft beers. They published their findings Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

A funnel used in the brewing process. (Credit: Jianjing Wang) The Mijaiya dig site dates back to the late Neolithic period, and likely


belongs to the Yangshao people, an early Chinese society composed mainly of semi-nomadic farmers. While evidence of beer in China goes back thousands of years, this would be the oldest confirmed evidence of brewing in China. A much older site in Henan province dating to the around 7,000 B.C. may provide evidence of even more ancient fermented beverages, although those would have been made from rice and honey.

In order to verify that it was indeed beer that filled the ancient clay pots, the researchers analyzed a yellow residue left over from the brewing process that still coated their insides. Although the organic remains had long since deteriorated, the ancientis now ripe for decision. For the reasons stated below, the Bankruptcy Court's Order is AFFIRMED in part, REVERSED in part and REMANDED for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.

The Boleman Firm, which is headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, provides bankruptcy services to consumer debtors.[1]*551 Between March 21, 2005, and June 22, 2005, the Boleman Firm submitted 133 supplemental fee and cost applications in bankruptcy cases it had filed on behalf of clients under Chapter 13 of the United States Bankruptcy Code.

For the past two weeks, Israel-bashers have had a brand-new poster child. Her name is Lara Alqasem.

Alqasem is an American citizen registered in a masters degree program at Hebrew University in Jerusalem. She is also a key operative in the so-called BDS or “boycott, divestment and sanctions” campaign against Israel.

Alqasem flew to Israel two weeks ago. Upon landing at Ben Gurion Airport, in accordance with Israeli law, which bars BDS activists from entering Israel, Alqasem was denied entry and immigration officials attempted to deport her.

Rather than agree to go home, Alqasem called in a battery of attorneys to appeal the decision in court. The move went from one judicial body to another, gathering the force of a massive media storm from day to day until it landed ongroups into rejecting cooperation with them. Again, their actions are simply garden variety “critiques” that are eminently reasonable in an open society.

The BDS movement has two areas of operation: Western nations, and Israel.

In the West, BDS operatives use mob actions and intimidation to drive Israelis and their Jewish supporters out of the public square and popularize hatred of Israel and Jews who support it.

In Israel, BDS operations focus on political theater. Operatives use Israel, as well as Israelis and Palestinians, as props and backdrops to stage productions that present Israel and Israeli Jews as evil, and the Jewish state as unworthy of existence. In the past, through the pro-BDS International Solidarity Movement, they have even collaborated with suicide bombers.

Given these modes of operations, BDS operatives like Alqasem who


colleagues who burned Israeli flags outside the Democratic National Convention in 2016 and who booed the mention of Jerusalem during the 2012 convention.

The Israeli left, for its part, needs to support antisemites like Alqasem and her racist BDS movement to stay relevant in a country where its numbers are depleted. According to a Pew opinion survey from January 2018, a mere 8 percent of Israeli Jews define themselves as leftists. Israeli leftists have no chance of achieving political power through the ballot box unless they give up their mindless endorsement of every anti-Israel initiative, something they are not ready to do.

Under the circumstances, the easiest way for Israeli leftists to influence government policy is by serving as Israeli faces for the international Left in its efforts to demonizeworld. It certainly empowered the Israeli Supreme Court to ignore the law and let Alqasem in.

Israel’s big mistake was letting Alqasem land at the airport. It tried to correct its mistake when authorities apprehended Alqasem at the border. But as events show, it was too late. As should have been predicted, as soon as she landed at the airport, Alqasem immediately began carrying out her propaganda stunt. In doing so, she demonstrated how important it is for Israeli authorities to properly enforce the entry ban on BDS operatives.

But the incompetence of Israeli immigration officials aside, they aren’t they real culprits in the Alqasem affair.

The culprits in this sordid story are Alqasem and her comrades in her racist movement — as well as their self-serving enablers on the Israeli


Summer is officially upon us. A historically subdued time on the TV calendar, the unrelenting pace of content output today has made it so that it's now almost as competitive as the traditional broadcast season. Almost.

And while it's certainly become harder to gauge success in these times of fractured viewing, it's not impossible. And there's certainly no harm in trying. So as the off-season starts to hit its stride, here's a look at the shows on cable and broadcast that are making it work or working the best they can — as well as a few that might already be on borrowed time.

The Valedictorian

Sure, it started in the spring, but scripted summer TV will not get bigger than Game of Thrones. The HBO drama remains appointment viewing for,Disney Announce Moana For 2016

Disney’s 56th animated feature, Moana, has been officially announced for 2016. After the big hit that was Frozen, the studio is moving to warmer waters. It tells the story of Moana and her task to fulfil an old ancestral quest. Set in the ancient times in the South Pacific region of Oceania, there will be sailing, sea creatures and demi gods, with a good helping of Polynesian folklore. The artwork released with the announcement is simple yet breathtakingly stunning and sets the scene for what could be a fantastic ocean adventure.

Written and directed by Ron Clements and John Musker, the folks behind The Little Mermaid, Aladdin and ThePrincess and The Frog to name but a few, Moana is set to follow in the footsteps

“It beat not just the 19.4 tonnes achieved by the ‘father of rice,’ the Chinese agricultural scientist Yuan Longping, but the World Bank-funded scientists at the International Rice Research Institute in the Philippines, and anything achieved by the biggest European and American seed and GM companies,” wrote John Vidal for The Guardian.

Fortunately for India, Kumar isn’t alone in his endeavors. Many of his friends, neighbors, and even rivals in nearby states are adopting the natural growing methods that he uses after observingJose Mourinho defended his decision to snub Romelu Lukaku – and extend the Manchester United striker's goal drought to six games.

Lukaku stepped up to take a penalty in the 78th-minute, only to be told to step aside on the orders of Mourinho, with Daley Blind dispatching the spot-kick to seal victory.

United made it four wins from four and need just a point to qualify for the last 16, but all the talk at Old Trafford was of Lukaku's spot-kick snub.

Anthony Martial, who had earlier missed from the spot, had been substituted, leaving Lukaku free to take the second penalty of the night in a bid to end his month-long wait for a goal.

1974 Oldsmobile 442 Indy Pace Car Olds returned to the Brickyard again in 1974, for the third time in five years. And for the second time in three years as a Hurst/Olds.

It comprises a procession of floats, bands, clowns, dancing groups, and walking performers, all culminating in the arrival of Father Christmas. At the terminus of the pageant Father Christmsa proceeded to the Magic Cave in the store (the event is no longer sponsored by a department store, and from 2019 the pageant finishes at the Adelaide Town Hall). Smaller scale pageants are also held in regional centres.

South Australia does not have a Boxing Day holiday. Rather, the weekday following Christmas Day being the Proclamation Day holiday. Christmas Eve, from 7:00 pm to midnight is now a Public Holiday.

Carols by Candlelight is a tradition that started in Melbourne in 1938 and has since spread around Australia and the


world. At the event people gather on Christmas Eve, usually outdoors, to sing carols by candlelight in a large-scale concert style event. The Vision Australia's Carols by Candlelight which takes place at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl in Melbourne on Christmas Eve, is televised nationwide and it has become a tradition for many Australians to watch the performance.

Carols in the Domain has traditionally taken place in Sydney the Saturday before Christmas Eve exclusive. However, since 2016 it has been held on the Sunday next before Christmas Eve exclusive.

Special events for international tourists away from their families are held on Bondi Beach in Sydney. These may involve a turkey barbecue and such humorous stunts as Santa surfing in to appear to the crowd.

March of the Penguins. Noble and strangely majestic. Succeed against the harshest of odds, strangely human. I really recommend you go see it.

March of the Neocons. Foolish and incapable of learning. Never fail to make the poorest of decisions, even with the world's most powerful military. Depressingly human. I cannot wait for January 20, 2009.

An FBI agent warned superiors in a memo three years ago that U.S. officials who discussed plans to ship terror suspects to foreign nations that practice torture could be prosecuted for conspiring to violate U.S. law, according to a copy of the memo obtained by NEWSWEEK.

Rove. Pink, fat, hairless Karl Rove. In handcuffs. And leg irons. Behind bars. Or flattened under the wheel of Air Force One. Sometimes dream-Karl's on all fours, big white ass up, with an Iraqi citizen standing over him holding a flourescent light. Karl's curly tail twitches when he's scared. This makes me smile. Sometimes dream-Karl's being frog-marched through the gates at Gitmo by Joe and Valerie Wilson. Dream-Karl's always yelling, "I am not a crook!"

The people in my dreams laugh at dream-Karl's troubles. Some shout that payback's a bitch and her name's Val P. One guy taped a note to the back of Karl's orange jumpsuit that read, "I'm Bush's Brain and all I got was prison."

I always wake up laughing, and hoping my dream was for real.the state have been used to disenfranchise the majority? And citizen is set against citizen?

I believe that country becomes one in which movies in Aramaic become grotesquely profitable and Carrot-Top can make money. It becomes a country where serving in the military is a sign of cowardice, but being a leather-faced tan-addict is a sign of "having a good heart".

President Bush intends to announce next week that he is going around Congress to install embattled nominee John Bolton as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, senior administration officials said Friday.

Bush has the power to fill vacancies without Senate approval while Congress is in recess. Under the Constitution, a recess appointment during the lawmakers' August break would last until the next session of Congress, which
