for the violation.

In a brief conference at the bench immediately after the court issued its disqualification order, attorney Wilkinson admitted that he also had consulted with both Midgett and Hix, and, pursuant to the court's order, should also be prohibited from further representation of Weeks. The court then directed that the previous order disqualifying Barringer be extended to include Wilkinson. The case was then stricken from the November 1997 docket and reset for a future trial docket.

7
On November 20, 1997, Barringer and Wilkinson filed a motion to reconsider the disqualification order and request for alternative relief. In their brief, they again raised the issue of the status of Hix and Midgett as employees with "speaking authority" to bind the School District. Barringer and Wilkinson claimed that because Midgettpay for the depositions of Midgett and Hix because of Weeks' counsels' bad faith in connection with those depositions. The clerk taxed costs against the School District in the amount of $3,480.05, which included the cost of the depositions of Hix ($868.00) and Midgett ($612.75). The School District filed a motion and brief asking the district court to review the costs taxed by the court clerk against the School District, and to reduce the costs taxed by $1,480.00, the total of the amounts claimed for the depositions of Midgett and Hix. This motion was served on Barringer and Wilkinson. Neither Barringer and Wilkinson, nor Weeks, through his present counsel, responded to the School District's motion.

11
The district court granted the School District's motion, agreeing with the School District that


parte communications with Barringer is less clear than the content of Midgett's communications with Barringer. When the School District's attorney asked Hix during Barringer's deposition of Hix whether Hix had ever had conversations with Barringer concerning Barringer's representation of Weeks, Barringer told Hix he could assert the attorney client privilege. When Hix was subsequently asked whether he had ever discussed Weeks' lawsuit with Barringer, he answered in the negative. The evidence indicates that at the time of the deposition, Barringer was considering representing Hix in a lawsuit similar to the one in which she was representing Weeks.

39
This evidence is sufficient to uphold the district court's finding that Barringer had prohibited communications with Hix concerning the subject matter of the litigation. However, it is not necessary to rely oninsurance, $298 for the anti-theft package and $1,000 for “Pro Pack.”

Kollie asked about the anti-theft package and was told it was mandatory in Edmonton.

“They said these things were very important,” she said.

None of the extras is mandatory.

Tried cancelling deal

That night, when she told her son what she’d done, he was furious and told her to cancel the deal.

Kollie went back to Kingsway Toyota the following morning and said her family was angry she had paid so much, but was told the deal was final.

Kollie said she pressed the issue, saying sales staff had withheld the final price until the last minute, only talking about the benefits she was getting.

The dealership wrote her a cheque for $2,000, and Kollie says she was happy again, until she got her new


car home and realized how different it was from what she had traded in.

The new Corolla had no sunroof or heated seats and, because of her arthritis, Kollie struggled to use the manual wind-up windows.

Furthermore, she said, her job driving disabled people requires her to be able to lock passenger doors and windows from the inside. On one of her first trips, she says, a client rolled down the window and nearly opened the car from the outside while she was driving.

Kingsway Toyota offered to install power windows, at her expense, or sell her a 2014 model, once one was available, she said.

Every solution the dealer proposed would have cost her even more money and that’s why she called Go Public, she said.

Media caption Footage shows a Trump supporter punching a protester at a Trump rally

The endorsement came a day after an elderly white man was charged with assault for allegedly punching a young protester during a rally for Mr Trump in North Carolina on Wednesday.

Video footage taken by bystanders shows John McGraw, 78, apparently hitting 26-year-old Rakeem Jones as he was being escorted away by police.

Analysis: Anthony Zurcher, BBC News, Miami

There are two sure-fire ways to draw Donald Trump's ire. The first is to directly criticise the New Yorker. The second is to pose a threat to his success.

Ben Carson never did the former but for a few weeks last autumn he challenged Mr Trump in Iowa polls and was rewarded with a full dose of the real estatemogul's derision.

Bygones, however, seem to be bygones. Now the retired neurosurgeon is endorsing the man who once compared him to a child molester.

A Trump-Carson alliance should not come as much of a surprise, however. Both candidates tapped into the desire among disenchanted conservative voters to find a candidate outside the traditional political world. Both offered sharp critiques of the Republican "establishment".

Mr Carson still has a loyal following, particularly among evangelical voters, and he could be a valuable asset to Mr Trump on the campaign trail as the New Yorker looks to secure the Republican nomination in the weeks ahead.

'Political stuff'

Mr Carson said Mr Trump had a "cerebral" side.

"I have found in talking with him,


that there's a lot more alignment, philosophically and spiritually, than I ever thought that there was," Mr Carson said of his former rival.

"Donald Trump talks a lot about making America great. It's not just talk, he means it."

Asked about insults that the two candidates had thrown at each other in the early stages of the campaign, Mr Carson said they had "buried the hatchet".

"That was political stuff," he said. "That happens in American politics."

Meanwhile Mr Trump explained why he had targeted his competitor.

"The one person who just kept sneaking up on me, I could not lose him, is Dr Ben Carson," Mr Trump said. "I fought back, and I hit him hard,which is politics, and he understands that."

Mr Carson's endorsement follows a debate in Miami on Thursday night between Mr Trump and his remaining rivals Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and John Kasich.

Mr Trump, a billionaire businessman from New York with no political experience, has dominated the state primary contests so far.

More contests next Tuesday in five states, including Florida and Ohio, could extend Mr Trump's lead and determine whether Mr Rubio and Mr Kasich can continue in the race.

On Friday Mr Rubio and his campaign admitted that Ohio Governor Mr Kasich had a better chance of winning in the state than he did.

Mr Rubio's communications director, Alex Conant, told CNN Mr Kasich was "the best bet" to defeat Mr Trump in Ohio, while only Mr Rubio could do so


in Florida.

Accordingly, the court will adhere to the usual summary judgment analysis on these motions.

III. FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND

The relevant facts are as follows. Disputes are noted accordingly.

A. Factual Background

1. Franklin County and Franklin Medical Center

According to a 1995 report prepared by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health ("DPH"), Franklin County, located 95 miles west of Boston, is the most rural county in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Covering approximately 850 square miles and consisting of 26 towns, the county has a population of less than 88,000. In central Franklin County, the population center of the


April 1990, after FMC's only board-certified anesthesiologist had announced his retirement, the hospital began a search for a new director of anesthesia services. In its search, FMC sought to address staff concerns about the quality and consistency of anesthesia care at the hospital as well as the administrative efficiency of the anesthesia department. Dr. Parikh, a board-certified anesthesiologist, responded to the hospital's advertisement for a medical director of anesthesia services and, in August *399 1990, entered into an interim agreement with FMC for the provision of anesthesia services.
In December 1990, after extended negotiations between the parties, Dr. Parikh and FMC entered into an exclusive contract. According to the terms of the agreement, "in order to provide for the continuity and consistency necessary in order to insure a highFMC. Dr. Pierson did not receive the requested privileges, and Dr. Parikh admits that his objections played a role in that result.

5. Partnership

In early 1994, anticipating an increase in demand for anesthesia services at FMC, Dr. Parikh recruited another board-certified anesthesiologist, Dr. Singla, to work with him at the hospital. In June 1994, Drs. Parikh and Singla entered into a partnership agreement. The agreement gave Dr. Parikh full discretion over the collection of accounts payable, the administration of partnership banking accounts, and other day-to-day business activities. The agreement further provided that 10% of Dr. Singla's partnership income would be held in an escrow account and subject to forfeiture if Dr. Singla provided medical services in Franklin County outside the terms of the partnership agreement. Finally, Drs. Parikh and


Singla agreed that upon termination of their partnership Dr. Singla would resign from the medical and dental staffs at FMC.
*400 Dr. Singla began his practice at FMC in July 1994. Dr. Parikh first submitted partnership billings to his billing service in October 1994 and first distributed partnership income to Dr. Singla in February 1995.
On or about March 17, 1995, Dr. Parikh notified Dr. Singla that he intended to terminate their partnership. On March 23, Dr. Parikh notified FMC that Dr. Singla would be resigning his staff privileges at the hospital, as required by the partnership agreement, and that he expected FMC not to interfere with his exclusive right to practice anesthesiology at the hospital. Thereafter, on the advice of counsel, FMC informed Dr. Parikh that it would notprohibit Dr. Singla from practicing at the hospital.
On or about May 12, 1995, Dr. Parikh told FMC that he would not include Dr. Singla on any future anesthesia-service schedules. On May 15, FMC transferred Dr. Parikh's scheduling responsibilities to another doctor. Several months later, in August 1995, FMC notified Dr. Parikh that it would not renew his exclusive contract at the end of its initial term on December 31, 1995.

6. Dr. Singla's Claims

Dr. Singla claims that Dr. Parikh's total disregard of the partnership's finances and unreasonable professional demands has caused him great mental anguish. He states that Dr. Parikh never explained the terms of the proposed partnership or produced a working copy of the proposed agreement. According to Dr. Singla, he did not read the final agreement before


reduced supply of anesthesia-related services at the hospital. There is no evidence, however, to suggest that Dr. Parikh was directly responsible for Dr. Pierson's failure to receive these staff privileges, only that he opposed the privileges on the basis of his contract and that, possibly in part for that reason and possibly for other reasons as well, the hospital chose not to extend them. Defendants next argue that Dr. Parikh's revocation of Dr. Singla's staff privileges has reduced the supply of anesthesia services at the hospital. The evidence also suggests, however, that FMC did not require an additional anesthesiologist on staff given the smaller than expected demand for anesthesia services in 1995. Finally, defendants charge that Dr. Parikh's offer to lower his fees in exchange for preferred-provider statusaff'd, 807 F.2d 1381 (7th Cir.1986).
Dr. Bradburd defined the relevant geographic market to include all of Franklin County and two Worcester County border towns, an area from which FMC drew 96.4% of its patients in 1994. He then relied on various demographic reports to characterize Franklin County's residents as geographically, socially, and economically isolated and, therefore, unlikely to travel long distances for their medical care. He also noted that the high costs for hospital construction and existing state regulations prohibiting the construction of outpatient surgical centers in FMC's so-called "primary market area" (generally speaking, the area from which FMC drew 75% of its patients in 1994) constitute significant barriers to entry, further protecting FMC's present market share.
What is missing from Dr. Bradburd's report is a rigorous analysis of


Young French striker offered trial

According to news reports in France, Arsenal set to offer a trial to Caen forward M’Baye Niang.

France.fr says that the youngster will join the club for a trial period, with a view to a permanent move. The news of a trial is slightly surprising because, although he’s just 17 years of age, he played 23 times for Caen last season, scoring 2 goals.

With doubts over much of Arsenal’s forward line this summer (Van Persie – obvious : Walcott – dubious : Bendtner – illustrious : Arshavin – tedious : Chamakh and Park – oblivious : Myaichi – loanius), perhaps Wenger is looking for some back up, and has had some success with 17 year olds from France before.

Meanwhile, the Carlos Vela to Real Sociedadshowed that Criterion acquired PaceSetter from the latter's bankruptcy trustee in order to acquire the bankrupt's various authorities to operate throughout the continental United States as a motor carrier of freight. This acquisition brought certain liabilities as well to Criterion, including liabilities for fuel taxes owed to various States. At all pertinent times, the defendant John H. Smelser, Jr. was a principal shareholder of Criterion, and its chief executive officer. The defendant Norma J. Smelser, who had been divorced from the defendant Mr. Smelser by the time of the trial, was at all pertinent times the defendant Mr. Smelser's spouse. The parties stipulated to the introduction into evidence of a transcript of her deposition. She admitted signing the general agreement of indemnity, and knew generally in April, 1986


receipt from the lessor of a signed receipt of equipment upon completion of the trip, and a report signed by the driver concerning the condition of the vehicle upon the completion of the trip. Other copies of documents enclosed with Ken Bay Transportation Company's February 17, 1987 letter are copies of a signed driver's vehicle inspection report and of a signed receipt of owner (lessor) for the equipment entrusted to the driver, which apparently had been supplied to PaceSetter with Ken Bay Transportation Company's August 27, 1986 demand for payment. Ms. Dee Miller of the plaintiff's surety claims department responded to Ken Bay Transportation Company concerning this second claim in a letter dated March 9, 1987, copies of which were addressed to the defendants Mr. and Mrs. Smelserentered into an agreement on February 25, 1987 to move from its location on the Pellissippi Parkway in Knox County, Tennessee. Following Criterion's April, 1986 acquisition of PaceSetter, according to Mr. Ritter's testimony, PaceSetter's business records were kept at PaceSetter's place of business in Winston-Salem, North Carolina until around Thanksgiving, 1986, when they were brought to Criterion's Knoxville, Tennessee place of business. Mr. Reedy testified that he knew in December, 1986 that PaceSetter had moved to a Knoxville address, and that it had a toll-free telephone number there. He testified that, once he learned this, he addressed correspondence to both the Winston-Salem and the Knoxville addresses. Mr. Smelser testified that Criterion had working telephone lines at its Pellissippi *840 Parkway location at all times pertinent to this litigation.


he has acquired experience in the trucking industry since 1977, when he worked as an owner/operator. He worked for a while in a motor carrier's trip lease department, then obtained his B.S. degree in transportation in 1983, and was admitted to the Tennessee bar in 1986. He first was employed by Criterion as in-house counsel on October 15, 1986, after Criterion's acquisition of PaceSetter. He worked for the defendant corporation until mid-February, 1987, when he left because of the declining financial condition of his employer.
Mr. Ritter recalled several telephone conversations with representatives of the plaintiff, including Mr. Reedy, concerning the trip lessors' claims for payment under the broker's surety bond. Mr. Ritter testified that he informed Mr. Reedy and at least one other representative of the plaintiff thatCounty, Tennessee Chancery Court. [See plaintiff's exhibit no. 56.]
Immediately before the trial of this action, the plaintiff moved under Fed.R. Civ.P. 16 and 37 for the imposition of sanctions against the defendants [doc. 52], on the ground that the trial had been continued from an earlier scheduled date due to the defendants' former counsel's decision to move for leave to withdraw after they decided to call as a witness Mr. Ritter, who had joined the defendants' former counsel's law firm. The Court heard testimony from attorney Vivian Lee Crandall, one of the defendants' former counsel, concerning the events prior to the earlier scheduled trial. Mr. Ritter was made available to be deposed by the plaintiff's counsel during the week before the earlier scheduled trial. The defendants wanted their


Joel, a 17-year-old high school student, took the witness stand in a federal courtroom Monday spoke about the trauma he experienced in a school locker room last October.

"Someone next to me tapped me on the shoulder and said, 'Turn around.' I turned around and a girl was standing there," he said.

"I scrambled to get everything into my locker so I could get out of there," the teen added. "I felt really humiliated. I was standing in my underwear."

This wasn't some prank. This was the result of a policy of the Boyertown Area School District that was the focus of a day-long hearing before U.S. Eastern District Judge Edward G. Smith in Easton.

Joel, another boy, and two female students are challenging that new policy, which allows transgender students tochoose which school bathroom to use, based on their "gender identity" rather than their physical sex.

The four students who are contesting the policy, which was in force for months before being ratified by the school board in May, are asking Smith for a preliminary injunction to forbid the district from enforcing it while their lawsuit is fought out. They are represented by the Harrisburg-based Independence Law Center and the Alliance Defending Freedom.

On the other side, helping to defend the school's restroom policy, is the ACLU and the Pennsylvania Youth Conference, which promotes the interests of LGBT teens.

Joel, who testified under a pseudonym, was the second student who took the witness stand Monday. He was preceded by "Mary," a girl who said she was unpleasantly surprised in March to


see a boy - who district officials said identified as female - in a girls' restroom.

Joel's and Mary's testimony closely meshed. Both painted the district's bathroom policy as an invasion of their privacy. "I have every right to use the male bathrooms and expect privacy," Joel said.

Dr. Scott Leibowitz, a psychiatrist affiliated with The Ohio State University and the Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, was the first expert witness called by the district's backers.

Questioned by attorney Ria Tabacca Mar of the ACLU, Leibowitz insisted that preventing transgender students from using the bathroom that fits their gender identity could harm them psychologically.

"It erodes your psychological well-being," he said. "It sends a message that...who they are is not valid. It's society reducing them to their genitals."

About 1.4 million U.S.WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump sent a supportive message Tuesday to former national security adviser Michael Flynn, hours before Flynn's sentencing for lying to the FBI in the Russia investigation.

"Good luck today in court to General Michael Flynn," Trump tweeted as he again protested the investigation that has ensnared several members of his 2016 campaign and administration, including ex-campaign chairman Paul Manafort.

"Will be interesting to see what he has to say, despite tremendous pressure being put on him, about Russian Collusion in our great and, obviously, highly successful political campaign," Trump added. "There was no Collusion!"

Flynn is scheduled to be sentenced Tuesday morning, more than a year after he pleaded guilty to lying to FBI agents about his communications with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak after the 2016 election.

Special


counsel Robert Mueller's team has recommended that Flynn receive no prison time following "substantial" cooperation with prosecutors in the ongoing investigation into Russian efforts to influence the election in Trump's favor.

Trump's salute to Flynn is in contrast to another witness in various investigations into his campaign: former personal attorney Michael Cohen, who was sentenced last week to three years in prison after pleading guilty to crimes that included campaign finance violations and tax evasion.

After his sentencing, Cohen said Trump directed him to make payments to women who claimed affairs with Trump because he worried about his chances in the 2016 election.

Trump described Cohen as a "rat" during a tweet storm on Sunday.

Flynn's sentencing comes a day after Flynn's onetime business partner and another associate were charged in anillegal lobbying effort on behalf of Turkey.

In February 2017, less than a month after they took office, Trump fired Flynn as national security adviser for lying about his discussions with Russian officials about sanctions leveled by the outgoing administration of President Barack Obama.

Flynn's problems played a key role in another aspect of the Russia investigation: the 2017 firing of FBI Director James Comey. Comey has said Trump had asked him to go easy on Flynn.

Mueller is investigating whether Comey's dismissal was part on an effort by Trump to obstruct justice in the Russia investigation.

Trump, who has denied obstruction as well as collusion, has said he fired Comey over performance issues.

Trans Day of Rememberance

November 20 marks this years Transgender Day of Remembrance. This year we will be memorializing 95 murdered trans men, women, gender non-conforming people, and those who love us. As you look at the list of murdered women, you should notice a few things. The majority of theses murders are trans women. the vast majority of these murders are unsolved, some of the murders have implications of police involvement. Many of the women were sex-workers, were women of color, were killed by men who they were intimate with.

Every year there are a couple of women who strike close to me, they remind me of myself, or friends of mine. This year, four women illustrate something for me:

Cynthia Nicole – Was a civil rights activist and HIVeducator in Honduras. This year has seen a drastic increase in Trans women’s murders in Central and South America. I feel like this is due in large part to increased reporting. Cynthia was trying to work with her government to increase awareness and to bring legislation to allow trans women to correct their legal documents to reflect their lives. She also provided education to Honduran TG/TS prostitutes to combat the spread of SIDA (HIV).

Kamilla – Shot in the face and genitals by her fiancee. She was a post-operative transsexual women trying to get on with her life and forge a relationship. Her fiancee questioned her past and after learning her assigned sex, shot her. Most of the reports I read wanted to discuss how painful the revelation must


have been for the poor (unnamed) man. Nevermind that a woman is dead by his hand, the last information I have is unclear as to whether he was even going to stand trial. Also note that HIS face is obscured in the linked article, while not only is HER face clear, but they included a photo from her childhood.

Tyli’a Mack – AKA NaNa Boo – Stabbed blocks away from a Transgender support/resource center in Washington DC. She and a friend were attacked in broad daylight. Her murderer is still at large, and oddly, no residents of the neighborhood have admitted to witnessing anything. Ms. Mack stands as an example that there is no real safe place for us. A street with a friend in the middle of thefirms. The Times would note in one of its articles:

Almost 2,000 British middlemen helped to create a network of offshore companies and move billions of pounds secretly around the world, according to the Panama papers. Lawyers, accountants, banks and company formation agents based in Britain were involved in setting up 32,000 of the 200,000 offshore companies incorporated by Mossack Fonseca, the Panamanian law firm.

Furthermore, as it follows from yet another publication of The Times for over 16 years thousands of offshore companies that own property in the Great Britain were providing the addresses of the largest UK largest law firms in the City like Clifford Chance, Farrer & Co and Withers as their own. For instance, A British banker Nigel Cowie who resided in North Korea for over


two decades created an offshore finance company that was allegedly used by the Pyongyang regime for arms trade and be able to carry on developing its nuclear program, says The Guardian. According to the released documents, Nigel Cowie was behind a Pyongyang front company, DCB Finance Limited, registered in the British Virgin Islands.

The full responsibility for the unprecedented scale of shadowy business scheme being pulled out in the UK is being placed on the British Prime Minister – David Cameron. For instance, The Independent took a somewhat straightforward approach, claiming:

What’s most stinging is the sheer hypocrisy of Cameron. After all, this is the man who made great efforts to increase funding for HMRC tax inspectors; abolished permanent non-dom status from April 2017 and proposed an international anti-corruption drivemore transparency, claiming that:

I’ll continue to make the case for transparency with international partners, including the British overseas territories and crown dependencies and I am willing to go further, and take concrete steps to force the pace.

Under these conditions, the British society seems to be determined to pursue the resignation of the vicious Prime Minister, forcing a vote of no confidence to be taken. Several British parliamentarians said that after the scandal with offshore companies, David Cameron should leave the position of the chairman of the Labour Party, while Labour’s deputy leader Tom Watson urged Cameron to hand over all the money that he received through offshore companies to the British treasury.

But the Panamanian Papers have not simply exposed the shadow schemes that are constantly being at play

No Depression's Bull Market

As the music industry tries to scramble out of its perceived slump, one of the footholds it's eyeing is Americana, a nascent radio format for roots music other than commercial country. And at the 11th annual South by Southwest music conference last weekend in Austin, the strain of this sudden attention was already evident among the writers, performers, fans, and entrepreneurs who make up the No Depression community--so called for the successful alternative country fanzine, which is in turn named for Uncle Tupelo's 1990 debut.

The three Chicagoans who run the independent Bloodshot record label--Eric Babcock, Rob Miller, and Nan Warshaw--found themselves near the center of both the buzz and the controversy at the festival: Bloodshot's contribution to Americana has been "insurgent country," in which traditionalcountry tropes are infused with punk-rock attitude. Several Bloodshot artists, including fellow Chicagoans the Waco Brothers and Robbie Fulks, made strong showings in the clubs, and Warshaw sat on a well-attended panel called "Alt.Country: The State of the Twang." But she said very little there, because the discussion was largely about Americana's prospects for mainstream success, a topic in which she and her partners have almost no interest--despite the fact that two of their acts, the Old 97's and Fulks, are in the process of signing with Elektra and Geffen, respectively. "We know that bands are going to use us as a stepping-stone to the next level, if that's in fact their goal," Babcock says.

Not so long ago, most such acts wouldn't have dared to assume there was


a next level; in fact, it was in Austin just four years ago that Warshaw (then a publicist for Old 97's predecessor Killbilly) and Miller got inspired to lay the foundation. The two had met not long before the festival while spinning country and punk records at the Lincoln Avenue watering hole Crash Palace (now Delilah's). Both were interested in the variety of country-influenced bands in Chicago, and the like-minded groups they caught at SXSW galvanized them further. In the summer of 1994, with the help of Babcock, who was working for the now-defunct Flying Fish folk label, Bloodshot stepped out with For a Life of Sin: A Compilation of Insurgent Chicago Country. Miller claims the release was intended as a one-off "goof," but it didn't take longfor the label to gain momentum.

"What kicked us up a couple of levels was the fact that it really seemed to resonate with all of these different people all over the country," says Babcock. "They wrote us and said there was something like this in their towns. We decided to connect all of these dots." The following year, on the compilation Hell-Bent, Chicago faves like the Wacos and the Riptones were joined by acts from San Francisco (Richard Buckner), New York (the World Famous Blue Jays), Arizona (Earl C. Whitehead & the Grievous Angels), and even country's tarnished capital, Nashville (Gwil Owen). Bloodshot has subsequently upped the pace, releasing a third comp, Nashville: The Other Side of the Alley, which highlights underground Nashville bands, and several full-length albums,


ranging from the Wacos' terrific new Cowboy in Flames to Scroat Belly's terrible Daddy's Farm.

Within the Americana scene, which can be claustrophobically boosterish, Bloodshot is a bit of a square peg. Like Uncle Tupelo cofounder Jeff Tweedy, who was criticized at the SXSW panel for trying to dislodge his current band, Wilco, from the No Depression niche, Warshaw, Miller, and Babcock are less concerned with ensuring alternative country's survival as a genre than they are with promoting their own tastes and meeting their own moderate goals. "If one of our records sells 5,000 copies," says Miller, "we're tripping over bags of money in the office."

Warshaw, the label's publicist, admits that her job's been easier since Americana became a recognizable entity, but also notes, "I don't think I'd likethey're still more true to what's fundamentally important about country music than anything that's getting played."

With a vague idea of an itinerary, I woke up Monday and headed to the airport for my 12:15 flight, arriving to the terminal at 9:15. I showed up at the international terminal only to realize I was at the wrong one, but I felt lucky I was not waiting in the enormous Cuba lines under the Spirit flights as I went to the correct place. Unfortunately, I arrived at the correct JetBlue terminal to find the line for check-in for Cuba flights snaking far out the terminal into the already-hot Florida sun.

A driver's 'Smart' car burst into flames on a filling station forecourt after she put petrol into the wrong hole.

Julie Nicklin, 54, was trapped inside her vehicle as it became a fireball when she mistakenly poured the fuel into the car's interior through a detachable cap on one side of the car - not the one containing its fuel tank.

The mother-of-two ignited the fuel as she turned the ignition key.

The 2005 Fortwo Pulse instantly exploded and trapped her inside, while it caused other motorists on the forecourt to run for cover.

She was pulled out of the car by a fellow motorist, who heard a loud "bang" and rushed over on Friday at 8.15am.Some years ago, a cricket match between India and Pakistan at Rawalpindi and Lahore provided me my first opportunity to visit Rawalpindi, my birthplace that I had left 59 years earlier. By then, my parents, grandparents and uncles had passed on, and I was the only male member in the family who had seen the upheavals of Partition. I had almost, but not quite, forgotten the place of my origin.

It was September 2006. My son Rakesh and I reached Wagah border early one morning. Checking on Indian side was stringent and lengthy. The rude and authoritative customs staff finally allowed us to cross the invisible border. The Pakistan checkpost staff was courteous and cooperative.

Our host, Bashir Ahmed, who had especially come from Rawalpindi, was anxiously waiting to welcome


us. He drove us to a hotel to collect our tickets for the Lahore match before heading onto the highway towards Rawalpindi. It was dusk when we reached. After going to a hotel to collect tickets for the match the next day, we asked Ahmed to drop us to our hotel. He refused, insisting that we had to stay with him. He would not take no for an answer. His wife was eagerly waiting to welcome us in the hospitable Punjabi way.

Dumars stepped down as Detroit's president of basketball operations Monday, a day after the Pistons lost their home finale and fell to 29-52 with one game remaining in the season. Detroit will miss the postseason for a fifth consecutive year.

"It's time to turn the page on a wonderful chapter and begin writing a new one," Dumars said in a statement. "I've had the pleasure of working with some great people throughout the last 29 years as both a player and executive, and I'm proud of our accomplishments. Tom Gores and ownership is committed to winning and they will continue to move the


franchise forward."

Gores took over as owner in 2011, with the team clearly in a rebuilding mode, but expectations were higher this season after the Pistons signed Josh Smith and traded for Brandon Jennings. The new-look roster flopped, and now somebody else will be in charge of the next effort to bring Detroit back to the postseason.

"Joe Dumars is a great champion who has meant so much to this franchise and this community," Gores said. "We are turning the page with great respect for what he has accomplished not only as a player and a front office executive, but as a person who has represented this team and the NBA with extraordinary dignity."

A message was left with Dumars seeking additional comment.

Dumars will remain an adviser to the ownership team,but this is the end of an era. Drafted by the Pistons in 1985, Dumars spent his entire 14-year playing career with the franchise, winning NBA titles in 1989 and 1990.

He was Detroit's vice president of player personnel during the 1999-2000 season before being promoted to president of basketball operations. Dumars was named the NBA's 2003 executive of the year, and the Pistons won another title the following season.

For the first half of his tenure as team president, Dumars' Pistons were a model of consistency, even as players and coaches came and went. Detroit reached the Eastern Conference finals every year from 2003-08, but after the team slid back into mediocrity, some of Dumars' most aggressive moves backfired.

In 2008, Dumars traded Chauncey Billups in a deal that brought


Allen Iverson to the Pistons. That didn't work out well, and neither did the decision to sign Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanueva to big contracts during the 2009 offseason.

Dumars had another chance to turn Detroit's fortunes around last offseason. When he acquired Smith and Jennings, the Pistons looked like they could become a playoff team, but the new lineup never really meshed, and this ended up being another frustrating season.

Coach Maurice Cheeks did not even make it through his first season as Detroit's coach. He was fired in February, and the team fell well out of postseason contention under interim coach John Loyer.

"It's been tough," guard Rodney Stuckey said after Sunday's loss. "From Day One, our mindset was making the playoffs, and unfortunately we didn't do that. WeEvoplay Entertainment to showcase Syndicate slot

He pulled up his pants at the urging of police but then dropped them and defecated on the sidewalk.

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- An Iraqi election group announced Friday that three of its workers had died in a drive-by shooting earlier this week.

Sayid Essa Sayid Jaafar, a spokesman for the Hezbollah Movement in Iraq, said masked gunmen in a black BMW and a Daewoo opened fire Wednesday night on the members at a market area in the Al-Shula neighborhood of Baghdad.

Sattar Jabbar Al-Mishari, head of Hezbollah's operations in Baghdad, and two office workers died. Al-Mishari had received death threats because of his participation in the election process, Jaafar said.

This election group is not affiliated with the militant movement in Lebanon or another in Iraq that also bear the Hezbollah name.

Al-Mishari's organization is one of the groups that joined the United Iraq Alliance, the largely Shiite coalition thatis fielding candidates for the January 30 election.

The Independent Electoral Commission of Iraq announced a change Friday in the deadline for candidate-list registration.

Wednesday is the nationwide deadline. Previously, the cut-off had been today for 15 of 18 provinces, and Wednesday for the country's three most restive provinces -- Al-Anbar, Salah ad Din and Nineveh.

Falluja and Ramadi are in Al-Anbar, Samarra and Tikrit are in Salah ad Din and Mosul and Tal Afar are in Nineveh.

After Wednesday, the political parties and entities will not be allowed to make any further changes to their lists, names, and logos.

As well as including numerous predesigned maps for use in Freeplay and multiplayer modes, the game also features a map editor, which allows players to both create their own maps and import maps from the original Settlers II.

Settlers and transportation
Whether playing in single-player or multiplayer mode, each game begins the same way; the player has one building, a warehouse/headquarters, in which are a set amount of raw materials and tools. The basic gameplay revolves around serfs (the titular "settlers") who transport materials, tools and produce, and who populate and perform the requisiteSettlers series is undoubtedly one of them." The game's developers, Blue Byte, who had developed all five titles in the series thus far, had chosen to remake The Settlers II because doing so was the most frequent request they received from fans. Additionally, surveys in German magazines and on gaming websites consistently showed The Settlers II to be the most popular game in the series.

One of the most important early decisions Blue Byte made was to leave the original's gameplay relatively unaltered. Of this decision, Wirsing stated, "the self-contained style of gameplay and the indirect control, in which the settlement and not the individual settlers are controlled, have not lost their charm even ten years after the game was first published."

Identity of Scots duo in gallery portrait revealed

SHÂN ROSS

WHEN artist Ron Stenberg launched an appeal in Scotland on Sunday to discover the identities of two people in a £100,000 painting he donated to one of Scotland’s leading art galleries he had no idea what a remarkable tale would emerge.

Stenberg’s painting Two Auld Wifies, Dundee (1982), now on display at The McManus art gallery and museum in Dundee after being shipped from his home in New Zealand last month, was believed to depict a couple of old friends sitting chatting on a bench at the corner of Reform Street near the City Square where they met every Friday afternoon.

But after the story appeared in Scotland on Sunday last month, Susan Keracher, art curator at The McManus, was informed thatthe woman on the left of the picture was Janet Isles-Denny, one of Dundee’s wealthiest women who decreed in her will that her vast fortune be left in trust to promote the arts, heritage and disadvantaged in Dundee.

Furthermore, the “friend” sitting beside her was in fact her son Alexander who had learning difficulties and was a long-term resident at the Royal Dundee Liff Hospital. Their identities have been confirmed by Isles-Denny’s former solicitor.

Stenberg had inadvertently captured Isles-Denny enjoying time with her son on one of his excursions out of the hospital.

Keracher said the painting revealed “a poignant story of the enduring love of a mother for her child”.

Alexander died a few years after the painting was completed and Isles-Denny died in 2008, aged 101.

A spokeswoman for Stenberg, 96,


who painted the work when he was a lecturer at the Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art in the city, said: “Mr Stenberg is absolutely delighted. He thinks this turn of events is incredible. He cannot believe that this painting which has hung in his home and has starred in exhibitions, including one in New York where a collector of Scottish art offered him £100,000 for it, had such a life of its own.

“He is particularly touched that this was a mother caring for her son. The fact it was Mrs Isles-Denny, who set up a trust to help the arts and the needy was of great interest to him.”

The Janet T Isles-Denny Trust is one of the biggest trusts in Dundee with an annual income of morethan £100,000 according to latest accounts lodged with the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator.

It gives grants to charities including those promoting the arts, heritage and culture; equality and diversity; sport and human rights and helping those in need due to age, ill health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage. Charities it has helped include Maggie’s Cancer Centres, Music in Hospitals and Sense Scotland.

Janet Thorburn Isles was born on 19 August, 1907 in Broughty Ferry. Her father was an upholsterer who built up a significant property portfolio through astute business dealings.

On 27 September, 1928, at St Giles’ Cathedral in Edinburgh, she married Thomas Denny, a stoker on HMS Greenwich. However, the marriage broke down a few years after Alexander was born.

Keracher said Mrs Isles-Denny’s difficult life took its


FRISCO, Texas – Connor McGovern knows better than to root for the New England Patriots now.

But allow the Penn State offensive line product – Dallas’ third-round draft selection – to explain his literally head-splitting reason for rooting for the Patriots growing up.

“I have a lot of hair right now,” McGovern began to explain, from the Cowboys locker room on Friday, after his first rookie minicamp practice. Then he pulled several locks of hair from the front-right of his head aside.

“See the scar right here?” McGovern continued. “They were playing the Rams a couple years ago in the Super Bowl, and I split my head open that night, and I was in the ER.”

Four-year-old McGovern was “kind of screwing around,” he says, when he fell and hit his headagainst a wall on Feb. 3, 2002. He told his parents from the emergency room that Super Bowl night that he’d become a fan of whichever team triumphed. The Rams, then in St. Louis, had won the Super Bowl two seasons earlier; New England had never won a title. Then the Patriots edged the Rams 20-17 for Tom Brady and Bill Belichick’s first Super Bowl championship.

“I stayed true to that word,” McGovern said, “so I was a Patriots fan.”

Fast forward 17 years and the Patriots and Rams rematched this February in Super Bowl LIII. Brady and Belichick claimed their sixth Lombardi Trophy. McGovern had grown from a 4-year-old with a head gash to an NFL draft prospect.

McGovern also showed reporters on Friday a scar on the left side


slightly different rotation rate. On the PC, however, there is no way to read an Amiga disk without special hardware, such as a CatWeasel, and a second floppy drive.

Commodore never upgraded the Amiga chip set to support high-density floppies, but sold a custom drive (made by Chinon) that spins at half speed (150 RPM) when a high-density floppy was inserted, enabling the existing floppy controller to be used. This drive was introduced with the launch of the Amiga 4000, although the later Amiga 1200 was only fitted with the standard DD drive.

Of all the Fine Old Ontario Families (FOOFS, as we used to call them), the Masseys were among the very finest. The Massey dynasty in Canada dates back to the early 1800s, and included not just successful industrialists but major patrons of the arts and many people who were accomplished artists in their own right.

The Secretary-General is concerned about the continuing intense airstrikes and ground fighting in Yemen despite his repeated calls for a cessation of hostilities. In this regard, he strongly condemns the apparent airstrike on 27 February 2016 that hit Khaleq market, in Nahem District in Sana’a, killing at least 32 civilians and injuring at least 41 civilians. The death toll is among the highest from a single bombing since September 2015. The Secretary-General expresses his sincere condolences and sympathies to the families of the victims.

He wishes he was himself as good a musician as Mozart so that he can praise the Lord through composing. He began his career as a devout man who believes his success and talent as a composer are God's rewards for his piety. He's also content as the respected, financially well-off, court composer of Austrian Emperor Joseph II. But he's shocked to learn that Mozart is such a vulgar creature, and can't understand why God favored Mozart to be his instrument. Salieri's envy has made him an enemy of God whose greatness was evident in Mozart. He is ready to take revenge against God and Mozart for his own musical mediocrity. Written by Khaled Salem


Russia honours Arctic convoy veteran Thomas

BEARSDEN. Thomas George Baker with his 2nd medal for being in the Arctic convoys.

Published:19:00Thursday 13 November 2014

A Bearsden man was thrilled to receive his second medal for his role in the Arctic convoys during the Second World War.

Thomas George Baker (90) from Ledi Drive in Bearsden already has 10 medals for his service with the Royal Navy, including a Victory Medal, one for being on HMS Sheffield and for taking part in operations in the Atlantic, Italy the Arctic and Russia.

Hillary Clinton, under pressure from the left wing of her Democratic Party to aggressively campaign against income inequality, voiced concern about the hefty paychecks of some corporate executives in an email to supporters.

Striking a populist note, Clinton, who announced on Sunday she was running for president in 2016, said American families were still facing financial hardship at a time "when the average CEO makes about 300 times what the average worker makes."

In a tightly scripted campaign launch in which there were few surprises, the comments were unexpected, at least by progressives, who saw them as an early sign

Economic inequality has been a top campaign theme for Democrats for the past several years, including for President Barack Obama. While he often talks about the need to address economic inequality, he is frequently cautious about appearing to lash out at corporations and their executives.

In 2009, for example, he bashed "fat cat" Wall Street bankers for accepting big pay packages in the aftermath of the 2007-2009 financial crisis at a time when many Americans were suffering hardship. Faced with a barrage of criticism from Republicans, Obama stressed he was not anti-business.

dude Philip II of Macedon, Alexander was born to rule most of the world. By the age of 21, Alexander had assumed the role of King after the murder of his Father, quickly uniting the emerging state of Macedon behind him, he conquered his enemies in Greece, and with lightening speed led a united Macedonian and Greek army of around 35,000 troops against the monster of the Persian Empire. On his death bed at the age of 33, Alexander had conquered half the known world, his empire stretched from Egypt to Russia, from Greece to India, and he had never lost a battle or campaign.

Why choose Alexander then? Well, the guy is a legend, one of the greatest Generals in history, he never lost a battle or acampaign. With vastly outnumbered forces, he conquered the vast Persian Empire and was always at the forefront of battle, leading from the front and getting stuck in. It has been said that at times he single handedly changed the flow of battles and won the day with his iron will and strength. Not only was he a great general, but he took on board the cultures and customs of the people he conquered, he founded over 70 cities and treated all peoples with equal respect. He also had a massive ego. That might be seen as a bad point, but let me explain why it’s essential.

Alexander will be in leading six other heroes/heroines who each are at the top of their respective games. In many cases, these members


Earth, owning the multi national Wayne Corp. and any super group is going to need a little extra funding. Bruce Wayne also has a ceaseless vendetta against crime. When he was a small boy, Bruce’s parents were killed by the low level criminal Joe Chill. Vowing that day to take revenge on Chill, crime in general and to try and stop such a thing ever happening to anyone else, Bruce Wayne dedicated his life to the war on crime.

Training in all forms of hand to hand combat, Wayne is perhaps the most capable fighter ever. He also knows the the value of fear and surprise in combat. Returning to his native Gotham City after years of travelling the world learning to be a complete badass, Wayne began hisresearch into the world of the criminal, and taking inspiration from his own fears, he sought to turn them into his advantage. Taking on the mantle of a bat, Bruce Wayne employs seriously cool technology, badass martial arts, the worlds greatest crime solving mind, and the inbuilt fear in the criminal to wage his war on crime as The Batman.

Batman is not really a conventional choice for a team up, normally seen as a lone wolf. However, he is a major part of The Justice League and also in recent times has sought to franchise out his war on crime. Batman Inc. is now a very real thing and many countries around the world have their own version of Batman. Also America does not need to rely on

A Korean woman was fined 1,000 baht for slapping the face of a female security officer who was scanning her at Suvarnabhumi airport late on Saturday night.

Media reported that the incident happened in the departure zone of the airport about 11pm on Saturday. At the time, the female airport security officer was using a handheld metal detector on the Korean woman after she had set off an alarm at a metal detector door.

The woman initially refused repeatedly to be scanned with a handheld device. The official tried to hold her


wrist to stop her but she shook off the official's hands, raised her own hands to make an X signal, walked towards another man and hit her body against a man who was collecting his belongings behind an X-ray belt.

After the hit, the tourist raised an X signal again, stepped back to the officer and raised another X signal. A man who accompanied her tried to hold her arm when the officer approached to use the handheld detector on her.

At the moment of the repeated scan, the tourist spread her arms cooperatively while the accompanying man held her left wrist up.

But when the officer held her right wrist to lower it, the female tourist raised another X signal and slapped the officer's face.

The management of the airport praisedthat the mujahedeen (Islamic fighters) may not weaken,” he said, according to the transcript.

The video is dated June 15, 2007, IntelCenter said.

After the attacks the United States led an invasion of Afghanistan to oust the Taliban regime allied with Al-Qaeda and believed the Saudi-born Bin Laden was hiding there. But after pounding the mountains where his den was thought to be, US-led forces failed to find him.

Bin Laden, who has a 50-million-dollar US bounty on his head, has appeared in a series of video and audio clips since the 9-11 attacks but has not been heard from since May 2006, when the CIA authenticated a voice recording on the Internet as his.

In the recording, which was accompanied by an online text, the terror network chief said Zacarias Moussaoui,


a 37-year-old Frenchman of Moroccan origin and the only man convicted in the 9-11 attacks, had nothing to do with the operation.

The recording surfaced on May 23, 2006, about two weeks after Moussaoui was sentenced at a court in Alexandria, Virginia to life imprisonment.

“He has no connection whatsoever with the events of September 11th, and I am certain of what I say, because I was responsible for entrusting the 19 brothers — Allah have mercy upon them — with those raids, and I did not assign brother Zacarias to be with them on that mission,” bin Laden said.

In that voice message, bin Laden also said that the prisoners being held at the US base at Guantanamo in Cuba had “no connection with the events of September 11th andknew nothing about them, with the exception of two of the brothers.”

Some Al-Qaeda analysts said the recording marked the first time bin Laden unequivocally claimed responsibility for the 9-11 attacks.

Other undated videos featuring bin Laden, who was last spotted in the Tora Bora mountains of eastern Afghanistan near the border with Pakistan in 2001, have circulated on the Internet since the May 2006 audio clip but analysts have said those images are not new.

In an Internet video posted July 15, bin Laden says: “The happy (person) is the one chosen by Allah to be a martyr,” according to the Washington-based SITE Intelligence Group, which said the footage was old, but did not give an estimated date.

Former student and co-author, and now economics professor at James Madison University, John Robert Subrick, pointed me on FB to this article --- The Unequal State of America --- about the economic situation in DC and its suburban surroundings. These passages particularly struck me:

Two decades of record federal spending and expanding regulation have fostered a growing upper class of federal contractors, lobbyists and lawyers in the District of Columbia area. The federal government funneled $83.5 billion their way in defense and other work in 2010 - an increase of more than 300 percent since 1989, even after adjusting for inflation. Private industry poured more than $3 billion into lobbying to influence the government, nearly double what it spent a decade ago. Like spokes on a wheel, theare both intended to speed up initial testing for individuals.

Besides faster medical answers, Watson promises to address three issues in medicine: First, it can stay apprised of all new medical evidence in any field better than doctors, who typically spend just 5 hours a week learning new medicine. Second, it can take into account a patient's entire medical history, giving truly individualized care. Third, it frees medical expertise from location — since Watson is cloud-based, a patient in Bangladesh can potentially receive the same diagnosis as someone in New York City.

"The power of Watson expands access to care," Tracey Weisberg, medical oncology president of the Maine Center for Cancer, said at an IBM event to unveil the new Watson-based products. "I believe it has the power to personalize


Pocono Mountain School District knocks down lockdown rumors

Rumors that Pocono Mountain East High School was locked down Tuesday are not true, according to the school district's website. In a message posted this afternoon, district officials said no other schools in the district were locked down either.

The rumors apparently started after students reported to school officials concerns over comments possibly made by another student at the high school, according to a letter to parents sent home with students this afternoon.

"Due to the nature of the alleged comments, we began an immediate investigation and dealt with the situation without incident," Principal Todd G. Burns wrote in the letter.Games were developing a new project for Wii in 2006 after Excite Truck, and the ultimate release of Excite Bots in 2009.

Despite not working on much of anything for a long time after Excite Bots, Monster Games ultimately later released Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D for the 3DS in 2013, and also helped Retro a bit on Tropical Freeze, while Retro then proceeded to help out on Mario Kart 8. All of these odd occurrences are quite strange, but perhaps Retro was trying to get experience in racing games and Monster in Donkey Kong games.

According to the article, which of course can’t really be verified, Monster and Retro are both working on Diddy Kong Racing, while Retro were working on another main game (Tropical Freeze) and Monster were

Every now and then I shifted my gaze from the bulbs at my feet to the lush field beyond, then to the orange grove and to the purple-blue hills in the distance. Suddenly the deep lungfuls of air I inhaled seemed to smell sweet again. By knock-off time at five-thirty my legs were shaking with fatigue, and I felt overjoyed to be sore and finished, not just sore.

A few days later I got talking with an Englishman in a pub. He had a miserable face, the kind you’d cast as a depression-era tax collector: sallow cheeks, a long, pointy nose, and arched eyebrows. He was a heater salesman before he packed it in for a round the world trip. He had blown 40,000 pounds (AUD$67,000) in just overGet breaking news alerts and special reports. The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.

Members of a migrant caravan seeking asylum in the United States reached Tijuana, Mexico, on Sunday, where U.S. immigration officials said that the port of entry had filled to capacity and that people without documentation may have to wait south of the border.

"As sufficient space and resources become available, CBP officers will be able to take additional individuals into the port for processing," Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Kevin McAleenan said.

The statement offered the first glimpse of a showdown that the 150 or so migrants had been preparing for with the Trump administration.

Earlier, the migrants gathered at a wall in Tijuana for an emotional meeting with a few hundred supporters in San Diego's


Friendship Park. The two groups couldn't come entirely face to face, but thet chanted back and forth to one another, separated by about 100 feet.

"We are immigrants. We are not criminals," some of the migrants chanted. "We are the hope of Latin America." Some climbed the fence, straddling the border to get a look at their supporters in the United States.

On the California side, demonstrators chanted: "We are all Latin American. Together, we are the dream of the future." Many held signs, and a kite reading "refugees welcome here" was flown over the border.

At one point, four couples traveling with the caravan paused in Tijuana for a brief marriage ceremony officiatedsubject themselves to a system that is designed to deport them — not protect them, deport them," she said.

The Trump administration has described the group as a threat, and Attorney General Jeff Sessions called the caravan as "a deliberate attempt to undermine our laws and overwhelm our system."

Nearly 20 lawyers from the United States were in the border city dispensing advice as a healthy slice of the nearly 400 people who ventured north through Mexico from Central America planned to ask for asylum on Sunday, according to Pueblo Sin Fronteras' Gina Garibo, who has been helping to guide the caravan.

The lawyers were warning asylum seekers to expect the worst, including possible separation from children and family members and months of detention as their cases are weighed.

Nearly 20 years after Dr. Jeffrey Sneider hung out his shingle, flying solo has lost its allure for the Syracuse internal medicine physician.

Earlier this month, he partnered with Dr. Anne Barash, a family medicine doctor, in Primary Care Associates at 181 Intrepid Lane. Their practice is part of FamilyCare Medical Group, a large multi-specialty practice with more than 65 doctors in 30 locations in Central New York. All the doctors are employees of the group.

As a solo practitioner, Sneider said it was becoming ever more difficult to comply with increasing regulatory requirements and other financial pressures. ….

The group recently was approved by the federal government to form the Syracuse area’s first accountable care organization, a new system designed


So long as groups such as al-Qaeda and ISIL are able to act with impunity in Yemen, the more remote are the prospects become of ending this dreadful conflict anytime soon.

While the political uncertainty continues, however, al-Qaeda and ISIL are taking advantage of the political vacuum to reestablish their own operations in the country, a deeply worrying development that certainly does not bode well for UN-sponsored attempts to end the country's long-running civil war between the government and the Iranian-backed Houthis.

The Saudis and Emiratis are now trying to heal the rift by hosting a peace conference involving the rival factions, in Jeddah.

Recent tensions within the coalition between the Saudis and the Emiratis, over which faction they support in the Yemeni government, has added yet another political dimension tothe country's bitter civil war -- one Islamist terrorists have been quick to exploit.

In the latest wave of terror attacks last month, a suicide bombing in Aden, Yemen claimed the lives of three members of the government's security forces while, in a separate attack, a senior security official survived a roadside bomb attack against his convoy in the centre of the city.

As if war-torn Yemen did not have enough violence to contend with at present, the recent spate of terror attacks in its southern port points to the return of Islamist terror groups such as al-Qaeda and ISIL, which are still plying their deadly trade in the


country.

In the latest wave of terror attacks last month, a suicide bombing in Aden has claimed the lives of three members of Yemen's security forces while, in a separate attack, a senior Yemeni security official survived a roadside bomb attack against his convoy in the centre of the city.

Initially Yemeni security officials said the attack had been carried out by al-Qaeda, which has claimed responsibility for a number of recent attacks in government-controlled territory in the south of the country. In early August, for example, an al-Qaeda attack on a military base claimed the lives of 19 Yemeni soldiers.

In what is, however, a graphic illustration of the ease with which rival Islamist terror groups are now able to operate in this lawless country, it was ISIL, not al-Qaeda,that eventually claimed responsibility for last weekend's attacks.

Al-Qaeda and ISIL have become fierce rivals in recent years, with ISIL the more recent manifestation of militant Islam that was responsible for establishing the so-called caliphate in Iraq and Syria. ISIL claims it is a more extreme alternative to al-Qaeda, the original iteration of Islamist-inspired terrorism.

Both organisations have a history of taking advantage of the chaos created in failed Muslim states to establish bases from which they can plot attacks against the West and its allies. After the recent setbacks they have suffered -- al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, and ISIL in Iraq and Syria -- it is logical that they should turn to Yemen to establish a new foothold.

Al-Qaeda has been operating in Yemen for several years, after the group established


its new franchise, Al-Qaeda in the Arab Peninsula (AQAP). The regrouping was just one result the US-led coalition's having destroyed the organisation's terrorist infrastructure in Afghanistan in the aftermath of the attacks of September 11, 2001.

Most famously, AQAP used its Yemeni base to plan its attempt to send two ink-cartridge bombs to synagogues in Chicago on flights from the Gulf state of Qatar in late 2010. The plot was foiled following a tip-off from Saudi intelligence officials.

AQAP remains a top priority for American counter-terrorism officials; US drones regularly attack AQAP positions in Yemen from their base in the African port of Djibouti.

The ability of groups such as al-Qaeda to carry out their operations in Yemen has been limited in recent years, since the military intervention of the Saudi-ledcoalition, which is fighting Iranian-backed Houthi rebels after they attempted to seize control of the country in 2015.

Recent tensions within the coalition between the Saudis and the Emiratis, over which faction they support in the Yemeni government, has added yet another political dimension to the country's bitter civil war -- one Islamist terrorists have been quick to exploit.

The root of the tensions between the Saudis and the Emiratis, who provide the bulk of the coalition forces fighting the Houthi rebels, is over their continued support for the UN-backed government of President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi. In what has been dubbed a "civil war within a civil war", the Saudis are continuing to back Hadi, while the Emiratis have decided to back southern separatist militias known as the Southern


Transitional Council (STC) who oppose Hadi's links with Islamist groups associated with the Muslim Brotherhood.

The Saudis and Emiratis are now trying to heal the rift by hosting a peace conference involving the rival factions, in Jeddah.

While the political uncertainty continues, however, al-Qaeda and ISIL are taking advantage of the political vacuum to reestablish their own operations in the country, a deeply worrying development that certainly does not bode well for UN-sponsored attempts to end the country's long-running civil war between the government and the Iranian-backed Houthis.

8    occasions.   Most of his arrests were drug-related; all led to

9    criminal proceedings in New York state courts.

10             The petitioner's legal troubles prompted the initiation

11   of his immigration proceedings and two delays thereof.    Nearly

12   fifteen years after they began, Noble now petitions this Court to

13   review the BIA's denial of discretionary relief from removal.

14            Noble's Criminal Convictions and Sentences

15             Noble's first arrest occurred some seven months after

16   he obtained lawful permanent resident status.    He pleaded guilty

17   in 1989 to criminal possession of a controlled substance.     He was

18   sentenced as a youthful offender to five years' probation.

19             On April 26, 1990, shortly after his probationary

20   sentence was imposed, Noble was again arrested, this time for

21   criminal impersonation.   He pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct

10   discharge.

11              Noble's removal hearings were reopened but suspended

12   again after he was arrested a seventh time on February 21, 2000.

13   Noble pleaded guilty to charges of disorderly conduct arising out

14   of a shoplifting incident, was sentenced to a conditional

18              On March 28, 2002, almost a decade after deportation

19   proceedingsagainst him had begun, Noble received a hearing

20   before an IJ to address his section 212(c) application.     He and

21   his wife both testified.

22              Noble recounted his extensive criminal record and

23   admitted to having committed additional drug offenses for which

24   he had not been arrested and, therefore, of which the INS had not

25   been aware.   He expressed his regret about that phase of his life

26   and asserted that he had since turned his life around.


  The IJ identified several "unusual and

18   outstanding equities" that offset Noble's extensive criminal

19   history, including his family connections to the United States,

20   his positive family relationships, the financial and emotional

21   support he provided to his family, and his steady employment.

22   Id. at 6-9.   Addressing the issue of rehabilitation, the IJ noted

23   that Noble had "expressed profound remorse for his criminal

24   convictions and regrets his criminal involvement."    Id. at 7.

25   The IJ further found that Noble had "demonstrated a willingness

Family Life Insurance Company. The existence of these policies did not come to the attention of Prudential until the fall of 1980. Furthermore, in response to another inquiry regarding past medical treatments and illnesses, the plaintiff failed to disclose several episodes of hospitalization and other medical treatment. Based on the information in plaintiff's application, Prudential issued a one-year policy effective the date of the application. The application was made a part of the policy.
In the summer of 1980, plaintiff was diagnosed as having lung cancer. Consequently, he began incurring medical and hospital expenses for which he submitted claims to his insurance carriers. At some point in the fall of 1980, Prudential became aware of the plaintiff's additional coverage and undertook an investigation of the matter. During this investigationthe plaintiff's claims were not processed, and, eventually, an attempt was made by Prudential to return the 1980 premiums, prorated so as to exclude the plaintiff from coverage but not other members of his family covered by the policy. Plaintiff refused the tender of the premiums and would not sign a release form submitted by Prudential. In January, 1981, Prudential refused to accept any premiums applicable to the renewal of the policy. Prudential, however, did make a payment in February, 1981, on a claim arising out of plaintiff's illness. Otherwise, Prudential refused to pay his medical claims despite an alleged oral demand for payment. Subsequently, plaintiff filed suit seeking payment under the policy for medical claims totaling $13,356.21, bad faith penalty and attorney's fees, under Ga.Code Ann. §


burkas hanging out at the beach when they should have been at school or in some mosque praying for our collective salvation. But then I looked closely and found out that many of them were on a date. Some were actually making out, in broad daylight, with men with beards. Covered from head to toe in a black robe, this is quite a spectacle – and provides just the right combination of challenge and opportunity. Walking on the beach with my wife the other day, we stared at a couple who were exploring the full possibilities of the burka, using their motorcycle to lean against.

Incoming quarterback Michael Brewer was the nation's No. 27 quarterback and could be a factor in the Red Raiders spring quarterback competition.

Needs met: Texas Tech has a lot of depth at running back, but Marquez and Williams could end up being two of the Red Raiders' best backs eventually. The Red Raiders are moving on without running back and longtime starter Baron Batch and also must replace departed receivers Detron Lewis and Lyle Leong.
