as we were all desirous of closing the matter up in as quick time as possible the best way would be to have the lease run to Mr. Harris with the assurance that they would be able to transfer to the Berry Investment Company as soon as the corporation papers had been filed and the formation of the corporation completed. They wanted the lease to run to Mr. Harris and it was understood that it would be assumed by the Berry Investment Company as soon as the corporation was formed--I don't know what the legal term is, but until the thing could be brought to life, or could be made legal. I had not investigated Mr. Harris as to his desirability as a tenant and I did notin 1929, testified that Berry had conferred with him concerning a reduction in the rent and that the discussion grew heated; that all his negotiations were with Berry. Said this witness: "I never knew Mr. Harris in the matter at all. We made some repairs for Mr. Berry, put in an office and rest room under his directions entirely and conferred with him on rental reductions. Mr. Berry used to come in to see me quite frequently on matters in connection with the lease." Both Berry and Harris denied there had been any discussion with Welch concerning an arrangement under which Harris was to be a figurehead in the transaction. Harris claimed he had leased the garage solely for his individual benefit and later sublet it to appellant


corporation. He denied that the Berry Investment Company was in existence when he executed the lease, or that the company made the first payments under the lease--claims which, it seems, were refuted by documentary evidence. In substantiation of his assertion *457 that appellant corporation had occupied the premises only as a subtenant, he produced a certain writing bearing date of August 21, 1929, and purporting to be a partnership agreement between himself and the Berry Investment Company. The writing was in the form of a letter signed by Harris with an acceptance indorsed thereon by the Berry Investment Company, "by B. S. Berry, president". Under the terms of this agreement Harris turned over to the corporation all personal property "on hand at said garage" and agreed that appellantorder to circumvent this difficulty and *460 close the deal at once we propose that the lease should run to Harris until the corporation completes its organization." Whether the bank's officer asked questions about the status of the corporation immediately following the proposal or a few hours later, is immaterial. Suffice it to say that the proposal was accepted and the conduct of the parties thereafter is peculiarly consistent with the alleged arrangement. The evidence does not clearly reveal just how far the corporation had progressed in its organization at the time the lease was being negotiated, but it had attained the status of a foreign corporation when the contract was formally executed. Four days later it qualified to do business in California. Upon execution of said lease


appellant immediately took possession of the garage and thereafter, through its president and secretary, dealt with respondent on the basis of the original understanding. Berry demanded and received certain alterations and improvements in the building, together with a substantial reduction in the rent. Rent receipts and rebate checks were issued to the Berry Investment Company and the account at all times was carried on the books of the bank in the name of appellant corporation. It is true, as suggested by appellant's counsel, that one who accepts the benefits of a transaction is not usually estopped to plead lack of authority on the part of the agent unless he was cognizant of all the facts, and also of his own rights in the premises. On the other hand,per one point increase of decisional conflict.

The Frood: The Authorised and Very Official History of Douglas Adams & The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.

The original BBC radio series of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy stars Peter Jones as The Book, with Simon Jones as Arthur Dent, Geoffrey McGivern as Ford Prefect, Mark Wing-Davey as Zaphod Beeblebrox, Susan Sheridan as Trillian, and Stephen Moore as Marvin the Paranoid Android, plus sound effects by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.

For those who have yet to discover Douglas Adams’s genre-busting creation, the story follows the adventures of Arthur Dent, quintessential Earthman, after the destruction of his planet by the alien Vogons to make way for an intergalactic bypass. The radio series later went on to inspire book, stage, TV and film adaptations and sequels.Loyola University Maryland opens the 2012-2013 regular-season on Friday, November 9, when it hosts Binghamton University at 7:30 p.m. in Reitz Arena.

The game is the first of 31 during the regular-season for the Greyhounds in the 103rd season of men’s basketball at Loyola.

Tune In

The game, along with all of the Greyhounds’ non-televised home games, will be broadcast live and free of charge on ‘Hounds Unleashed, the broadband arm of LoyolaGreyhounds.com. Video is available on computers and most mobile devices platforms.

Series History

Loyola and Binghamton will meet for the first time when they take the court Friday.

The Greyhounds went 3-0 last season against teams in the America East Conference, defeating UMBC and Boston University at home and New Hampshire on the road.

Loyola is 33-26 all-time against teams currently in the


league with the vast majority (44) of those games coming against crosstown foe UMBC.

What’s Back

Loyola returns eight of 12 players who saw game action, including four players – forward Erik Etherly and guards Dylon Cormier, Robert Olson and R.J. Williams – who started in the NCAA Tournament game last season.

In all, the eight returning players accounted for 73-percent of Loyola’s minutes last year, 70-percent of rebounds, 80-perecnt of assists, 79-percent of steals, 65-percent of blocked shots and 71-percent of points.

So Long

Four players departed from last year’s roster, including J’hared Hall and Shane Walker who graduated from Loyola in May and two players who elected to transfer – Justin Drummond (Toldeo) and Pierson Williams (Cal State-Dominguez Hills).

Walker started all 33 games in the post for Loyola last year andaveraged 9.0 points and 6.3 rebounds per game while dishing out 50 assists and blocking 42 shots. Drummond was an All-MAAC Third Team honoree and MAAC Sixth Player of the Year while scoring 10.7 points per game a year ago.

Preseason MAAC Honors

Three Loyola players were named to the various Preseason All-MAAC teams as voted on by the coaches of the league.

Erik Etherly earned an All-MAAC First Team nod, while Dylon Cormier and Robert Olson were named to the Second Team.

The MAAC will announce its preseason poll of order of finish in the league on its Preseason Awards Show that will be aired on ESPN3 this Friday at 8:15 p.m.

Classy Senior

Senior guard Robert Olson was named one of 30 candidates for the prestigious Senior CLASS Award last week. An


acronym for Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School®, the Senior CLASS Award focuses on the total student-athlete and encourages students to use their platform in athletics to make a positive impact as leaders in their communities.

Olson was the Greyhounds’ third-leading scorer last season with 11.1 points per game and enters this season Loyola ranked fourth at Loyola in 3-point percentage (138-of-336, .4107) sixth in career 3-pointers made (138) and eighth in 3-pointers attempted (336).

Last season, Olson was one of four Loyola players to earn All-MAAC honors, picking up Third Team mention and later All-Tournament honors.

High Marks

The Loyola men’s basketball team scored the highest amongst squads in the State of Maryland in the most recent NCAA Graduation Success Rate report. The Greyhounds checked in with a 91-percentold the last time Loyola played in an NCAA match.

MAAC Title

Loyola won its second MAAC Championship in 23 years in the conference on Monday, March 5, 2012, defeating Fairfield University, 48-44, in the lowest scoring championship game in league history.

The Greyhounds held Fairfield to just six second-half field goals and 28.8-percent shooting in the game.

Loyola, which finished second in the conference during the regular season and earned the No. 2 seed in the league tournament, defeated Niagara University and Siena College in the MAAC Quarterfinals and Semifinals, respectively.

Defense Wins Championships

The Greyhounds played outstanding defense in the MAAC title game, holding Fairfield to 44 points and 28.8-percent shooting for the game. The 44 points were the fewest Loyola had allowed in a game this season. It was the fewest


points a Loyola opponent had scored since the Greyhounds held Dartmouth to 41 in a 58-41 decision on November 24, 2009.

Loyola allowed the Stags to shoot just 6-for-31 (.194) in the second half, scoring only 22 points, the fewest points against the Greyhounds in any half this season.

After trailing by four points (30-26) at halftime, Loyola held Fairfield without a point for the first 7:48 of the second half, and without a field goal for the first 8:48. In that period, the Greyhounds outscored the Stags 11-1 to take a 37-31 lead.

Turnaround…Check

Loyola completed the turnaround from finishing the 2003-2004 season with the lowest RPI in NCAA Division I basketball. The Greyhounds finished that season with a 1-27 record the season before Jimmy Patsos took over as head coach.

Sincethen, Loyola has gone 122-123 and culminated the turnaround by winning a school Division I record 24 games in 2011-2012.

Patsos is one of only three coaches at the Division I level in the last 20 years to take over a program that had won zero or one game the year prior to then win 100 games at the school. He joins Steve Cleveland (BYU) and Pat Douglass (UC-Irvine) as the others.

Outstanding Performance By Etherly

Erik Etherly was named the MAAC Tournament Most Outstanding Player after averaging a team-best 17.3 points and 5.7 rebounds over the three games.

Etherly was in double figures in each of the three games, including back-to-back 20-point games for the first time in his career in the quarterfinal and semifinal rounds.

He followed that with 10 points,


seven rebounds and a career-high five blocks in the MAAC title game vs. Fairfield.

He shot 20-for-38 (.526) from the floor and 11-for-14 (.786) from the foul line, while finishing with nine blocks.

Last season, Etherly was named to the All-MAAC First Team after averaging 13.7 points and 7.5 rebounds per game, both tops for the Greyhounds.

He also became the second player in school history to earn National Association of Basketball Coaches All-District honors, when he joined Mike Powell (1997) and earned Second Team laurels.

Cormier Continues Upswing

Dylon Cormier led the Greyhounds in scoring 13 times during the 2011-2012 season and scored 20 or more points on seven occasions as a sophomore, earning All-MAAC Second Team honors.

The Baltimore native made a huge jump in production from his freshman year when heaveraged 8.1 points per game and started 28 games for Loyola. He showed a marked improvement in shooting as a sophomore, hitting 46.1-percent of his shots form the field after making just 37.9-percent as a freshman.

20-Win Season

The Greyhounds’ victory over Boston University on February 19, 2012, was their 20th of the season, setting a school Division I record.

Loyola, which moved to NCAA Division I in 1981-1982, had won 19 games in 2007-2008 and 18 in 2006-2007.

The overall school record for victories, 25, came in 1948-1949.

Patsos Named Coach & Man Of The Year

Jimmy Patsos became the first Loyola coach to earn The Rock/Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Coach of the Year honors by a vote of his peers in the league.

Patsos guided the Greyhounds to a school Division I high


24 wins and a program MAAC record 13 victories. He earned his 100th career coaching victory in November 2012 and led the Greyhounds to the No. 2 seed in the MAAC Championships.

Later in March, Patsos was named the Skip Prosser Man of the Year award for his work on and off the court, an honor presented by CollegeInsider.com.

2012 All-MAAC Honors

For the first time since the league expanded to three All-MAAC teams in 1998, four Greyhounds received all-league honors, topping all teams in the conference. Erik Etherly was named to the All-MAAC First Team, Dylon Cormier to the Second, and Justin Drummond and Robert Olson to the Third.

Loyola led all teams in the MAAC with its four selections, just in front of Iona’s three.

The Greyhounds’ previous high was atthe end of the 1997-1998 season when Mike Powell (1st), Jason Rowe (2nd) and Roderick Platt (3rd) earned All-MAAC honors.

Etherly led Loyola in scoring (13.7), rebounding (7.5) and blocked shots (50), while finishing second on the team with 63 assists. He shot .530 from the field, good for third in the conference

Cormier was second on the team in scoring, just back of Etherly, with a 13.4 points per game average while improving his field-goal percentage nearly 10 points from his freshman season to .461 as a sophomore.

Drummond has come off the bench in 29 of the Greyhounds’ 33 games last year and is fourth on the team with 11.1 points per game. The guard as also third in rebounding (3.9), and he has scored in double figures 17


times this year.

Olson was one of the top 3-point shooters in the conference last year. He shot .431 from behind the arc, third-best in the MAAC, and averaged 11.1 points per game. The guard entered the month of January averaging less than nine points per game, but from that point forward, he was the team’s second-leading scorer at nearly 13 a contest.

Big Buckets By Bush

Anthony Winbush scored just 16 points in the Greyhounds’ MAAC Championships run, but five of his field goals have come at critical junctures in the victories.

Winbush hit two 3-pointers midway through the first half of the MAAC title game that were part of a 10-3 Loyola run, giving the Greyhounds a 16-9 lead with 10:12 left in the half. Prior to the two 3-pointers,Winbush was 3-for-15 (.167) from downtown on the season.

In the Semifinal game vs. Siena, he tallied Loyola’s fifth and sixth points of the game, scoring in the paint at 12:13 to stop an 11-0 Siena run that had the Saints ahead 11-4. He then made a jumper at 6:31 that put the Greyhounds ahead 17-16 in the first half.

In the Quarterfinal victory over Niagara, Winbush’s first half basket with 2:32 on the clock broke a 31-31 tie.

More Than 60 Years

The last time the Loyola men’s basketball program won 20 games in a season, 1948-1949, the following things were going on in the world, 63 years ago:

Harry Truman began his first full term as President of the United States.

Arthur Miller’s Death Of A Salesman premiered on Broadway.

NATO was formed.

The


Basketball Association of America and the National Basketball League merged to form the NBA.

First back-to-back sellouts of Reitz Arena since the venue opened in 1984 (Feb. 3 and 10).

Century Mark

Head Coach Jimmy Patsos became the third coach in Loyola history to win 100 games when the Greyhounds defeated UMBC, 73-63, on the road last season. Patsos, who is now in his ninth season, took over a team that finished 1-27 during the 2002-2003 season. He won his 100th game in his 215th career game.

Last season, Patsos moved into third-place all time at Loyola in victories, trailing only Lefty Reitz (349 wins, 1937-44, 1945-61) and Nap Doherty (165, 1961-74).

The Genocide of Kurds Under the Name of Anfal

The Genocide of Kurds Under the Name of Anfal

What
is the definition of Anfal?

The Middle East defined the process
of Anfal as, "Anfal is a name given to a series of inhumane attacks done
by the brutal Ba'th soldiers. The whole process of Anfal consisted of eight
attacks that were taken place in six different places. On September 17th, 1987.
the condemned Ba'th regime had census in the whole Iraq. After four months of the census, the process
of Anfal started. The first series of Anfal started on February 22th, 1988. The
process was ruled by one of the Ba'th Office from the North. After a while, it
was run by Ali Hassan Majed."

Dr. Azad Muhammed Amen, a professor
in the Salahaden University defined the processof Anfal as, " According
to our perspective, the process of Anfal didn't only consist of the attacks of
Ba'th Regime's troops against the Kurdistan villages and Peshmarga- Kurdish
Soldiers, but it was a well- organized process of destroying thousands of
villages in Kurdistan. After the process of Anfal, the destroyed Kurdish
villages were bombarded with Chemical bombs. Those innocent Kurdish people who
were not killed by the chemical bombardment, were arrested by Ba'th regime.
Then they were conveyed to the Ba'th Campus. After that, the process of
classifying the arrested people took place, and they were transferred to
different places. Women and children were sent to their special campus.
However, the elder people were sent to the jails from the South of Iraq. Also,
Those people who were between (15-50) years old were sent to death. Before the

Earlier, Alsumaria TV reported 28 fatalities. Security sources also told the channel there were several children among the victims.

The explosions ripped through a market selling mobile phones in the mainly Shiite Muslim district.

The assailants were suicide bombers riding motorcycles through the crowd, two police sources told Reuters.

But according to AP's sources, there was a bomb planted in the market area. Just minutes after it went off and a crowd gathered at the site of the explosion, a suicide bomber blew himself up amid dozens of people.

The situation is currently "under control" and a local curfew hasSources claim Sinofsky wasn't a team player. He leaves the company after 20+ years.

Steven Sinofsky, president of Windows and Windows Live Division, is leaving Microsoft effective immediately, reports All Things D.

The move is claimed to be a result of growing discontent within the software giant, with a number of executives reportedly unhappy when working with him due to his failure to be a "team player." Such a move has striking parallels with Scott Forstall's recent exit from Apple.

Sinofsky held his current position since 2009, but he joined Microsoft in 1989, more than 20 years ago. All Things D says responsibility for Windows will now be split between two of Sinofsky's reports: Julie Larson-Green, who will head up Windows engineering, and Tami Reller, who will take care of the


business side.

In a press release, CEO Steve Ballmer said the company needed to be more aligned and integrated, with more regular software releases:

I am grateful for the many years of work that Steven has contributed to the company. The products and services we have delivered to the market in the past few months mark the launch of a new era at Microsoft. We've built an incredible foundation with new releases of Microsoft Office, Windows 8, Windows Phone 8, Microsoft Surface, Windows Server 2012, and Halo 4, and great integration of services such as Bing, Skype, and Xbox across all our products. To continue this success it is imperative that we continue to drive alignment across all Microsoft teams, and have more integrated and rapid development cycles for oureffort you have all put in to get us here and to set the foundation for our future. At the Windows launch in New York, at the Windows Phone event in San Francisco, and again at the Build event on Redmond campus, I was struck that while externally many people look at these events as the finish line, they really represent the starting line of a new era.

As we enter this new era, and with the successful launch of Windows 8 and Surface behind us, Steven Sinofsky has decided to leave the company. Steven joined Microsoft in 1989 as a software development engineer and has contributed to the company in many ways from his work as a technical advisor to Bill Gates, to leading the evolution of the


of developers already working on Microsoft-centric technologies?

Basically he could be a great team player as long as he was in charge of the whole team, and I was really impressed by much of what he did. But his job was always Windows v.next, and he never really did much to support the other parts of Microsoft or the Windows ecosystem. After all, the version of WIndows people could buy wasn't ever the version he was building!

It is telling in that Win8 has shipped. Just as Allchin stepped down after Vista shipped, and Valentine was retasked when Vista was reset in late 04/early 05(and left entirely in 06). He took over when Windows 2000 was signed off from the previous VP.

MS never changes management in the middleof a product cycle. Sinofsky's leaving was likely known at least a year ago, but he stayed on to see Win8 through to completion.

Balmer's statement was pretty light on comments about Sinofsky, which is telling. I guess he lost the support of the CEO and board, and now he's history.

It is just the opposite. Ballmer's statement was not telling of anything, because it said very little. I could see that he might have been too territorial, however, thats a common criticism both inside and outside of MS. I know that when he was put in charge of Windows the hope was that he'd get Office and Windows on the same track since he came from Office. Office is now released without a major Metro makeover, so that did


worked at Microsoft from Nov 2005-Jan 2012, and saw and was impacted by Sinofsky's takeover of Windows.

He's definitely a smart guy, and wrote a great internal blog on management and other topics. And he makes good products that work. But "not a team player" sure has resonance. He was brutal in getting rid of technologies he found competitive to Windows.

He essentially tore apart both the Windows Media and then the Silverlight teams to get development teams to build Windows features in the Windows org. And he made Silverlight go away as a meaningful platform because it validated Mac and downlevel versions of Windows, and made it impossible to even communicate to partners about plans for the future of Silverlight and .NET.

Brogan Dulle, a University of Cincinnati student, vanished on Sunday

After a night out, he realized he had dropped his phone outside

Leaving behind his keys, jacket and wallet, he went to look for it - and was captured on surveillance footage before walking out of view

Police admitted they have no leads and have no evidence of foul play

A massive search is now underway for the 'dependable' student

Police have admitted they are baffled by the disappearance of a University of Cincinnati student who vanished five days ago when he went outside to retrieve his dropped cell phone.

Brogan Dulle, 21, has not been seen since about 2am on Sunday


after returning to his Clifton Heights apartment block following a night out with friends.

Surveillance footage shows the group of friends heading down the road before the group jumps into a car to go to a Taco Bell, while Dulle heads into the apartment block.

But moments later - leaving behind his jacket and phone and leaving his keys still in the door - he returns to the sidewalk with a flashlight to look for his cell phone, police believe.

A French tourist was bitten by a crocodile after posing next to the enormous reptile in a misguided attempt to take a selfie, according to reports.

The 41-year-old woman was exploring Thailand’s Khao Yai National Park with her husband when the duo came across the giant female reptile, reported The Mirror.

The couple squatted down next to the crocodile, which then reportedly sank its teeth into the woman’s thigh as the picture was taken.

Snaps from the scene show the woman being whisked away by rescuers, as the croc ambles away through the brush.

The park reportedly posts many signs telling visitors to stay on paths and not detour through the thicket.

they chose not to attack a number of islands, instead simply bypassing them and attacking islands closer to Japan. For example, the US never tried to invade the large Japanese naval base at Truk. Instead, it hopped past that group of islands and invaded Guam and Saipan in the Marianas instead. It left the Japanese on Truk to “wither on the vine” instead of expending the resources needed to invade that island group.

Rather than methodically fight and conquer one Japanese island at a time, General Douglas McArthur instituted the policy of "island-hopping". Certain strategic islands were identified to be occupied by the Allied forces, while the rest were left isolated.

This essay describes the effects of Zionist ideology on research into human population genetics carried out in Israel during the 1950s and early 1960s. I argue that the internalization of the dominant Zionist narrative is reflected in the articles that were written by Israeli geneticists and physicians during these years. My claim is based on a comparison of articles about human population genetics written and published by Israeli scientists between 1951 and 1963 with similar articles written by non-Israelis. The comparison reveals that during this period the Israeli human geneticists and physicians emphasized the sociological and historical aspects of their research and used their work, among other things, as a vehicle for establishing a national identity and


Highly Favoured Lady: Guadelupe Festival

Our Lady of Guadelupe is the most revered icon in the Mexican Catholic Religion. She is Mexico's version of the Virgin Mary and the countries patron saint.

Festival Essentials

Where: Throughout Mexico, centred in a Mexico City ChurchWhen: 12th December
What Happens: Pilgrimage to the Basilica to honour the memory of Mexico’s own Virgin Mary – uniting indigenous and Catholic beliefs

Our Lady of Guadelupe is the most revered icon in the Mexican Catholic Religion. She is Mexico’s version of the Virgin Mary and the countries patron saint.

History

According to national legend, the Virgin Mary appeared to a Juan Diego (a Mexican Indian) in 1531 on the Cerro de Tepeyac in the north of Mexico City. She appeared three times in the guise of an Indian princess and commandeda church to be built in the area, where the Basilica de Guadelupe now stands. More miraculously she imprinted her image into Juan Diego’s cloak, and this cloak now is preserved and set in gold.

You can view this cloth in the new basilica, which was built in response to earthquakes in the area that cracked the original basilica. Viewing occurs on a motorized platform that moves you past the Lady of Guadelupe. Whilst this may be an efficient way to allow the entire crowd to view her image, but can seem to be a little cynical in the face of a religious wonder.

Festivities

From early December onwards Mexicans celebrate the day of Our Lady of Guadelupe. The pilgrimage to the Basilica de Guadelupe culminates on their national holiday in


her honour on December 12th. This pilgrimage is a mammoth affair with about 5 million Mexicans making the journey to the Basilica that holds round the clock services to cater to the throngs of pilgrims.

The Roman Church is a uniting force in Mexico, and this festival is no exception. The Virgin de Guadelupe is depicted as an Indian “dark Madonna”, and this has helped the integration of indigenous people and their religion into the Roman Catholic Church. The resulting Catholicism exists in a more multifaceted form which attempts to be meaningful for the whole Mexican population, whether white, indigenous or mestizo.EA president Frank Gibeau says that Dead Space needs a number of players roughly equivalent to the entire population of Norway to justify its continued existence. "In general, we're thinking about how we make this a more broadly appealing franchise, because ultimately you need to get to audience sizes of around five million to really continue to invest in an IP like Dead Space," he told CVG in a recent interview.

"Anything less than that and it becomes quite difficult financially given how expensive it is to make games and market them," he continued. While firm sales numbers are not readily available, EA did say back in February that Dead Space 2 was selling about twice as well as the franchise's first entry had. Yet, even given that, they


… According to a release issued by the university, a total of six players will be suspended for a game or games at the beginning of 2011 for selling awards, gifts and university apparel and receiving improper benefits in 2009. Included in that total is quarterback Terrelle Pryor, who figured to be in the thick of the Heisman race next year but now must decide whether it’s worth even coming back another year.

Pryor, the release states, must repay $2,500 for selling his 2008 Big Ten championship ring, a 2009 Fiesta Bowl sportsmanship award and his 2008 Gold Pants, a gift from the university. He will be suspended for the first five games of the 2011 season, or nearly half of his final year of collegiate eligibility.

The resurgence of interest in links between health and development raises interesting questions about the process of research, policy-making, and implementation in the field of health and poverty. To learn about the process in South Africa, we examined three commissions of inquiry relating poverty and health -- in 1929, 1942, and the early 1980s. Power relations of the players were a decisive factor and determined the type and nature of the research conducted.


Lee Harvey Oswald's Grave in Fort Worth, Texas

After Lee Harvey Oswald was captured as the prime suspect in President John F. Kennedy's assassination, he was shot and killed by Jack Ruby on the way into his final interrogation. The true motivation for his murder may never be known. There were no mourners at Oswald's funeral, so reporters present were asked to act as pallbearers. Oswald was laid to rest in Fort Worth's Shannon Rose Hill Burial Park. He did not rest peacefully.

Oswald's original headstone, a simple granite slab bearing his full name, birthdate, and a cross, was stolen on the four year anniversary of Kennedy's death. The assassin's mother replaced the stone with a red stone that simply read "Oswald." The original headstone then reappeared, and has beencontentiously traded amongst one family dealing in JFK memorabilia.

Then in 1981, a conspiracy suggesting that a Russian body double had been buried rather than Oswald led forensic investigators to exhume his body, cross reference his dental records, and confirm that it was indeed Lee Harvey Oswald in the ground.

Only adding to the myriad conspiracy theories surrounding Kennedy's assassination, the plot next to Oswald bears an almost identical grave engraved with the name "Nick Beef." Some speculated that this might be a Russian conspirator, but cemetery records indicated that the plot was empty. Others assumed it was a sneaky directive to Oswald's grave. As cemetery staff were not allowed to give out the location of the assassin's plot, tourists could simply ask, "Where's the beef?"

In reality, the empty Beef


grave was the work of "non-performing performance artist" Patrick Abedin. Abedin, who grew up in Dallas and saw Kennedy the night before he was killed, would visit the Rose Hill cemetery with his mother to see Oswald's grave. When he found out the plot right next to it was available, he began a years-long process of purchasing it in $10 installments. When the time came to put down a headstone he put an inside joke name. Despite all this, he doesn't plan on being buried in Rose Hill Cemetery (he plans to be cremated instead). The stunt is more about creating permanence in a world that can change in an instant.Russian President Vladimir Putin with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Shanghai in 2014. REUTERS/Carlos Barria There was a lot of excitement in the industry when the Russian energy giant Gazprom announced a mammoth $400 billion (£256 billion), 30-year export deal to China in May 2014, but the agreement is now coming under extreme pressure on numerous fronts.

Morgan Stanley analysts on Monday morning suggested that construction of the necessary pipeline would be delayed by at least six months, taking the initial exports to mid-2019 at the earliest.

The initial deal had talked about beginning supplies as early as 2018.

Here's part of the note from Morgan Stanley on Monday morning:

According to a recent Interfax report, this contract was only activated on May 13 (2015) – seven months after the initial deadline.


This means that exports from Russia can begin no earlier than in May 2019. The final deadline for the project coming on line is now May 2021. At the same time, in late July, China reportedly suspended a second pipeline, this one planned to pump 30 bcm per year from Western Siberian gas fields to China’s northern-western Xinjiang region.

It's not the first problem that's been noted for the Gazprom deal. Last week, a Financial Times report noted that the deal offered Gazprom, which is majority-owned by the Russian government, no protection against a prolonged period of lower oil prices. According to analysts the FT spoke with, at current oil prices the project is unprofitable or even loss-making for Gazprom.

In May 2014, Brent Crude was sitting at well over$100 a barrel, but it began to decline almost immediately after the agreement was reached.

Today it's down by nearly 56% on its May 2014 levels:

investing.com, Business Insider

A report this weekend from AFP noted that this wasn't the first major challenge for Gazprom in recent years — it has lost about five-sixths of its market value since before the financial crisis.

What's more, EU and US sanctions against Russia have made the company's efforts to export to Asia more difficult. Here's a snippet from AFP:

Western sanctions imposed on Moscow over the Ukraine crisis have undermined Gazprom's attempts to turn away from Europe, its traditional market.

Washington's ban on technology transfers to Russia for certain energy projects, including Gazprom's Yuzhnoye Kirinskoye field in the far eastern Okhotsk Sea, is stifling Moscow's ambitions


Mimi | Yoga Booty | 8-1-14

I was late to pick up Levi from his workout, but it didn't matter to him because he was hanging out with one of the girls from his yoga class. This hot Latina was named Mimi, and she was showing off her sweet ass right in the parking lot. No doubt, she was ready for some action. Mimi was totally into Levi and was all about coming along with us to the house for another workout. She got straight to shaking ass, and Levi dove right in face first and started fucking her really good. You don't want to miss a second of this hot action plus the giant load he left plastered on Mimi's face. It's hot stuff!monolingualism then – most legislation was drafted in French and it was impossible to do business in the city without it.

The enlargement of the EU to 16 countries where English is usually the most important second language, has toppled French from its perch.

In the space of one generation, English has become the continent’s undisputed lingua franca.

According to a Eurobarometer poll in 2012, it is spoken by 38% of Europeans, compared to 12% for French and 11% for German. A quarter can read a newspaper, understand TV news or communicate online in English. About 5% can do so in French. Over two-thirds of respondents said English was one of the two most useful languages, compared to 17% for German and 16% for French.

So for the first time since the


be able to speak a common language, according to the 2012 poll.

In European terms, the harsh truth is that French is the language of the past and English the language of the present and future. Four out of five Europeans believe it is important for their children to learn English, compared to 20% for French – down 13% in the last decade.

Most young French people get this, which is why the journalism students I recently taught in Lille – in English – understood the need to speak the language fluently to make it as a reporter.

This is not Anglo-Saxon triumphalism, which would be difficult for a proud Welshman. Neither is it schadenfreude – French is, after all, the mother tongue of my children. It is simply the realitythe tortured texts coming out of the Commission.

Native English speakers are quite capable of producing bureaucratic gobbledygook in their own tongue.

Finally, there is no evidence that the French language – or any other one - is being destroyed because French people can increasingly speak English. As the German President Joachim Gauck said two years ago, it is perfectly possible to be in favour of multilingualism and English as the EU’s common language. If the German head of state can entertain these thoughts, why can’t a free-thinking French journalist?

Federal authorities announced Wednesday they are no longer searching for a second Uzbek national who may have been connected with Tuesday’s terror attack in Lower Manhattan.

The FBI announced Wednesday it was seeking information about 32-year-old Mukhammadzoir Kadirov, who it believed may have played a role in the incident, as reported by the The New York Times.

The FBI is no longer seeking information on Kadirov, according to Reuters. Authorities say they found the man, the FBI announced during a Wednesday press conference.

Four Liverpool players made the Power Rankings' top 10 this week

Manchester City's Kevin De Bruyne has topped the Sky Sports Power Rankings for a second successive week, but Liverpool dominate the top 10.

The 25-year-old assisted Raheem Sterling (No 4, down one place) during City's 3-1 win at Swansea on Saturday to retain his position at the chart summit by just 315 points.

Tottenham's Son Heung-Min soared 11 places to No 2 after scoring a match-winning brace against Middlesbrough at the Riverside, having also bagged a brace against Stoke earlier this month.

Liverpool quartet Sadio Mane (No 6, up 14 places), Philippe Coutinho (No 7, up 48 places), James Milner (No 8, up 33 places) and Adam Lallana (No 9, up 24 places) stormed into the Power Rankings top 10, allchampions Leicester 4-1, with Daley Blind (No 25, up 88 places) involved in three of United's goals and Paul Pogba (No 45, up 99 places) scoring his first goal for the club since his £93.25m world-record transfer to Old Trafford - after the club failed to register one top-50 player last week.

Manchester United's Paul Pogba broke into the Power Rankings' top 50 along with Daley Blind

Manchester City's Sergio Aguero (No 36, up 69 places) was among the top performers from matchday six after returning from suspension and opening the scoring at the Liberty Stadium, before converting a penalty to double City's lead in the second half.

A Look Back at 10 Highest-Grossing Indonesian Films in 2016 and Predicting the Film Trends of 2017

Last year saw a soaring record for Indonesian movies...So, what are the predictions and trends in 2017?

By
Umesh Bhagchandani on Jan 10, 2017

The Indonesian film industry saw soaring box-office numbers in 2016 that offer hope to the local film industry. As reported by SWA magazine, the Indonesian films increased its domestic market share by 13 per cent this year from 2015 to 33 per cent.

This isn’t surprising given the increased number of Indonesian movies released in the past few years. Indonesian movies are getting a wider audience in the country and feature popular stars while being produced by commercialised production houses and even independent ones.

For the first time, nine Indonesian movies attracted morethan 1 million viewers each in 2016. This is a new record over the six films in 2006 that had the same number of viewers. Warkop DKI: Reborn, a reboot of a popular 1980s comedy franchise, succeeded in toppling Riri Riza's Laskar Pelangi (The Rainbow Troops) released in 2008.

The reboot cracked the all-time box-office record with a whooping Rp 205 billion, while the sequel to the legendary high-school romance Ada Apa Dengan Cinta? 2 racked up Rp 109 billion. Rudy Habibie, on other hand, claimed Rp 60 billion at the box office, although it scored low on number of viewers compared with its first movie Habibie Ainun released in 2012.

Here are the movies that made it into this year’s biggest box-office earners, based on data compiled by film

The movie (scheduled for release in February 2017) depicts the lives of Salawaku and Saras against the backdrop of the gorgeous Maluku islands. Elsewhere, the return of Warkop DKI Reborn: Jangkrik Boss Part 2 is still on many viewers’ want lists. The sequel will see the return of the three stooges played by actors Vino G. Bastian, Tora Sudiro and Abimana Aryasatya and will be directed by Anggy Umbara.

To plan and perform IPE activities effectively, the characteristic culture of the country as well as the norms, strengths and constraints of the academic institutes must be taken into account. Unique IPE must be adapted for each educational setting in each country.

In Gunma University, the School of Health Sciences was incorporated from the junior college department into the Faculty of Medicine in 1996. For the faculty integration, one of the most important aspects of education has been IPE. A few years were spent in preparing for the educational system development, and the original and distinctive IPE was delivered to the third year of undergraduate students for the first time in 1999.

The mandatory IPE practice-training curriculum, designated as \"Simulated interprofessional training among


students of different professions in health sciences\", has been implemented continuously for over 10 years. A systemic assessment for the achievement was developed independently of those described elsewhere \[[@B5],[@B6]\], and we reviewed the effectiveness of the curriculum from a team-building point of view. The present IPE programme has thus far been planned, implemented and evaluated independently of scientific research.

The present educational programme has been approved as a \"Support Programme for Distinctive University Education\" by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT). With this financial support, in the present paper, the effectiveness and the limitations were elucidated statistically using our own assessment measures, and will be discussed in comparison with the literature.

GUSHS curriculum guidelines
---------------------------

Gunma University School of Health Sciences (GUSHS), which provides interprofessional curricula for studentsmajoring in nursing (NS, 80 students), laboratory sciences (LS, 40 students), physical therapy (PT, 20 students) and occupational therapy (OT, 20 students), was upgraded from the junior college department and incorporated into the Faculty of Medicine in 1996.

The IPE programme in GUSHS consists of two types of subjects. One type is a lecture style, which includes two subjects delivering information to first-year students and teaches the details and value of IPW. These lecture-style subjects are \"Holistic Medicine/Teamwork Studies\", a mandatory basic science, provided in the first term, and \"Interprofessional Work Overview\", an elective course in general education in the latter term, totalling 15 lessons for each subject. Another is a training-based subject called Teamwork Training. Building on the professional expertise acquired in the second year, third-year students participate


clinical training were developed through several group consultations. Clinical training was then implemented outside the university at the assigned training facilities for two full days.

Approximately 20 facilities were asked to cooperate with the clinical training outside the university, selected from the following seven fields: \"Hospital Medicine\", \"Community Health Care\", \"Care at Home\", \"Rehabilitation\", \"Medical Care for the Mentally Ill\", \"Paediatric Care\" and \"Elder Care\". These facilities have played a major role in delivering diversified health care services.

After this clinical training, several group consultations were held to prepare a report on achievements and lessons learnt, which were presented at a debriefing meeting. The debriefing meeting of the \"Teamwork Training\" course was held, consisting of each group\'s presentation and general discussions, and then several group consultations were held to prepareclinical training reports for a brief report book.

The management body, designated as the Interprofessional Education Committee of Gunma University (IPEC-GU) consists of two professors from GUSHS and four associate professors. The Committee contacts the selected training facilities, prepares an annual plan, organizes preparatory and management meetings, supervises academic staff who implement training with students, establishes standards for evaluation, conducts and analyses the \"post-training evaluation surveys\" and compiles reports on training.

Approximately 20 academic staff selected from the four departments facilitated the students\' training groups according to the educational guidelines. A training group consists of eight students: four from the Department of Nursing, two from Laboratory Sciences, and one each from Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy, which is proportional to the enrolment capacity of each department.

Assessments of the IPE programme


\"Collaboration with medical students is essential to achieve teamwork-training goals. Students of nursing, laboratory sciences and physical and occupational therapies would like medical students to join this training subject\".

Discussion
==========

The mandatory IPE practice-training curriculum in GUSHS, designated as \"Simulated interprofessional training among students of different professions in health sciences\", has been implemented continuously for more than nine years. This educational programme was originally designed by us with two goals in mind: experiencing being part of a health care team (the spirit of interprofessional work), and learning interprofessional work in clinical practice (skills of interprofessional work).

Mandatory practice training has been assessed with original assessment tools. In the present study, four factor subscales -- \"Role and responsibilities\", \"Teamwork and collaboration\", \"Structure and function of training facilities\" and \"Professional identity\" -- werethe highest among all items. This high-level attainment was maintained throughout the nine years. On the other hand, the overall mean score of Q6 was the lowest. Interestingly, the mean score in the first year was significantly lower than that in 2004, 2006 and 2007, and the mean scores during 2000/2007 were not significantly different, indicating that the students\' attainment of the present IPE programme in the first year was not sufficient as compared with the following years.

In Dalhousie University, the IPE initiatives by the School of Health Services Administration in the first year failed as well, while in the following year their interprofessional learning modules were successful \[[@B7]\]. These results may confirm the suggestion that an initiative of IPE should be kept and improved by increasing funding,


participation by additional academic units such as medical departments, and the creation of a more formal management structure \[[@B4],[@B7]\].

The desire for medical students to join in the training was voiced by many health profession students every year. When specific attributes of faculty members, including medicine, nursing, pharmacy and social work members, were examined in 2007, medicine faculty members reported significantly lower mean scores than nursing faculty on attitudes towards IPE \[[@B6]\]. For the successive delivery of IPE programmes, emphasis is placed on avoidance of stereotypes, enhancing communication and learning about the scope of practice of the different professions \[[@B10]\].

Furthermore, in some reports, the goals of the IPE initiatives seem to go beyond communication and role understanding, and suggest changing the culture of health professional interaction, referred to asknowledge issue. An attempt to look at skills, attitudes, behaviour or performance will also be necessary. The second limitation is the lack of assessment of the role of two independent lecture-style IPE subjects implemented in the first academic year. This will be assessed carefully and elucidated.

Conclusion
==========

The effectiveness and the limitations of our unique assessment measures were statistically analysed over nine years (1999 -- 2007). Our original questionnaire was categorized into four factors: \"Role and responsibilities\", \"Teamwork and collaboration\", \"Structure and function of training facilities\", and \"Professional identity\". All these factors play an essential role in the development of IPE training programmes.

We have started two main initiatives. One is participation by medical students, and the other is the introduction of simulated interprofessional training based on case scenarios into the

The construction of the single WES 30 turbine had been approved by the Dennis Old Kings Highway Historic Commission. However, this February ARC was forced to halt the five year struggle due to the appeal of a visual abutter to the Old Kings Highway Regional Historic Commission. The Regional OKH Commission is made up of Sandwich, Barnstable, Yarmouth, Dennis, Brewster, and Orleans. Sandwich, Barnstable, and Yarmouth voted that the Town of Dennis showed poor judgement and thereby overturned our approval (the Town of Dennis could not vote, Orleans never showed up, and Brewster voted in support of the project). The heavy legal cost of continuing to fight for the turbine is unsustainable for ARC.

Located in the central highlands of Viet Nam, these ethnic minorities have suffered forbuild or renovae student houses or where they exist, to provide funds to improve their meals to allow them to sustain themselves throughout the days and be able to study.

Your continued help will make a huge difference in their lives and contribute to brighten their currently bleak future.

The Bishop of Kontum, Most Rev. Micae Hoang Duc Oanh, once said: “Based on published research about leprosy in the world, Asia is the continent that has the highest number of lepers, and in Asia, the highest number comes from South East Asia, and in South East Asia, Viet Nam has the highest number and in Viet Nam, the provinces of Gia Lai and Kontum (that makes up the Diocese of Kon Tum) have the highest number.

As they arrive in the Hanger Bay, a group of men try to extort money from them by claiming that they stopped their landspeeder from being stolen. They quickly attack and disarm the men before meeting up with their contact, Nera Dantels. After confirming Wedge's code, she leads them to her ship, the Starduster and shows them her cargo, several R2 and R5 series astromech droids. As they leave the planet, a Stormtrooper radios Folor Base and informs them the ship is leaving. However, before they can make the jump to hyperspace, they are attacked by a squadron ofvideotape their sexual acts without her permission. She didn't realize how consistently he would record their encounters until she discovered a bag he had that was full of tapes. Van Allen started to watch some of them and discovered that she was on many of the tapes performing sexual acts with Kelly along with an underage girl.

R. Kelly's former tour manager/assistant Demetrius Smith also acknowledged that the singer recorded and collected sex tapes for his own personal use. "He would come to me and say, 'Man, we got to pray. I can't control myself with these tapes,'" he revealed.

Meanwhile, at the Chicago Sun-Times, reporter Jim DeRogatis received an anonymous tip that Chicago Police sex crimes unit has been investigating Kelly for some time regarding his relationships with underage


revealed that the girl in the tape was, in fact, her niece.

"It fucked me up," Sparkle says of the tape before bursting into tears. "It's over with, but it still haunts me. It should have never happened. I should have never introduced him [R. Kelly] to my family. How dare you, how dare you."

"On the tape, my niece has the same hairstyle she had when she turned 14. That was her, for sure," she added. "And that was him. Definitely."

Van Allen also confirmed that it was Sparkle's niece in the tape as well. "He and I were actually having sex with her. I was unaware of how young she was," she said, adding that the young girl was 14 and she was 18 at the time of theirencounter.

Soon bootleg copies of the "R. Kelly sex tape" were being sold on the streets, barbershops and distributed on porn websites.

"[R. Kelly] has no moral clock," said Jovante Cunningham, Kelly's former backup singer and friend of Sparkle. "I can only imagine what his wife was going through."

Andrea Kelly, the singer's now ex-wife, was in the dark about the sex tape scandal. She was immediately transported to a home in Florida with no explanation. Andrea was scared to death and alone. On top of that, she was also pregnant with their third child. "I was broken," she said.

The stress was so overwhelming that it put her unborn baby's life in jeopardy. During a trip to the OBGYN, doctors told her they couldn't hear her baby's heartbeat and


was 14 years old at the time. Outside of the courthouse, Pace would yell words of encouragement to Kelly before he entered the building. One day he noticed her and ordered one of his handlers to get her phone number.

During the trial, the prosecution called 14 witnesses, including Lisa Ann, who testified that it was Sparkle’s niece in the video. Lisa recognized the body of Sparkle's niece because she once had sexual relations with the child.

Shockingly, Sparkle’s brother-in-law took the stand and said that it wasn’t his niece in the tape. In addition, her niece, who allegedly appeared in the sex tape, as well as her niece's parents, also denied that she was the person in the video, despite other witnesses positively identifying her during the trial.

On June14, 2008, the jury came back with a not guilty verdict, which stunned everyone in the courtroom. Sparkle doesn't know if the family was paid off for their silence.

Andrea eventually filed for divorce from R. Kelly and was granted an order of protection from the singer. Since finalizing her divorce in 2009, Andrea has claimed that the singer has not paid child support for his three children.

One year after the trial, R. Kelly called Pace, the young girl who always greeted the singer every day outside of the courtroom, and invited her to his Chicago mansion. He asked her to bring a bikini. She was 16 years old at the time.

Pace arrived at the mansion where he was having a listening party for his Untitled album at his


swimming pool. She was instructed to put on her bikini and model for him. After a while, Kelly told Pierce to remove her top, which then led to Kelly kissing her.

She claims she told him she was a virgin, to which Pace says Kelly replied, “That’s perfect. I get to train you and take your virginity.”

According to Pace, she lost her virginity to Kelly and recalls the sexual act as nothing memorable. “I thought to myself, ‘Oh well, I guess I lost my virginity,” she said.

Pace stayed at Kelly’s house for several months and was given rules during her stay. She wasn’t allowed to make phone calls, talk to the other girls in the house or to any of the staff. Pace revealed that she was often mentallyand physically abused by the singer.

Another form of punishment that Kelly would often use on the girls was starvation, Pace also claims. The longest she had gone without food was for three days (she survived off water and packets of peanuts she would hide for herself).

In 2009, Pace was ordered by R. Kelly to find another girl to bring to the house. She picked Dominique Gardner, who was a friend she communicated with on MySpace. Gardner was soon invited to the mansion and before long was staying at Kelly’s house.

Gardner’s mother, Michelle Kramer, was in shock that her daughter was at Kelly’s house. She tried to bring her daughter home with help from the police but to no avail. Kramer then called R. Kelly and told him to

GUANTÁNAMO BAY, Cuba — Holding the Nazi war criminal Rudolf Hess as the lone prisoner in Germany’s Spandau Prison in 1985 cost an estimated $1.5 million in today’s dollars. The per-prisoner bill in 2012 at the “supermax” facility in Colorado, home to some of the highest-risk prisoners in the United States, was $78,000.

Then there is Guantánamo Bay, where the expense now works out to about $13 million for each of the 40 prisoners being held there.

Welcome to Monrovia, Indiana. With a dwindling population of 1,083, the small town, first founded in 1834 as one of many farming communities that served as the backbone of early America, is a compelling new subject for prolific documentarian Frederick Wiseman’s latest look inside the kind of places, people, and systems that make up the country. (And, quite frankly, still impact it on a massive level.)

In his latest documentary, “Monrovia, Indiana,” the filmmaker endeavors to explore “the importance of rural America as a formative center of American politics and values was demonstrated in the 2016 presidential election.”

Per its official synopsis, “The film explores the conflicting stereotypes


and illustrates how values like community service, duty, spiritual life, generosity and authenticity are formed, experienced and lived. The film gives a complex and nuanced view of daily life in Monrovia and provides some understanding of a rural, mid-American way of life that has always been important in America but whose influence and force have not always been recognized or understood in the big cities on the east and west coasts of America and in other countries.”

“I thought a film about a small farming community in the Midwest would be a good addition to the series I have been doing on contemporary American life,” Wiseman said in an official statement. “Life in big American cities, on the east and west coasts, is regularly reported on and I wasattempts in the U.S., including VP candidate Paul Ryan’s failed 2012 bill to grant full personhood to fetuses. Woodworth’s bill, initially dismissed by national media and labeled “unfortunate” even by Prime Minister Stephen Harper, was subject to a free vote–meaning MPs are not asked to vote along party lines–on September 26.

The bill was defeated, but nearly one third of parliament voted in its favor, including half of the Conservative cabinet and the Minister for the Status of Women, Rona Ambrose. MP Mark Warawa (CON-Langley) introduced Motion 408 the very next day, seeking to condemn the practice of sex-selective abortion and keep the debate alive in House of Commons. Motion 408 bears striking resemblance to the Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act (PRENDA) that failed to pass the U.S. House in May

In short, popular opinion is all that stands in the way of reopening the abortion debate in Canada. Last month, more than 300 anti-abortionists from across the country met in Toronto with the explicit goal of “transforming our culture,” the theme of the National Pro-Life Conference. The conference was attended by politicians, local activists and organizers, crisis pregnancy center employees, church representatives and university and high school clubs, all determined to limit access to abortion and hormonal birth control in Canada.

Most homes here are owned by high net worth individuals who live with their families. The ridges are home to a good number of some of the richest and wealthiest people in the world. The people live like royalty and are pampered with everything that a fun-loving person would desire to sale or buy a house.

By David Morgan

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The White House is coming under pressure from some of its closest allies on healthcare reform to name a chief executive to run its federal health insurance marketplace and allay the concerns of insurers after the rocky rollout of Obamacare.

Advocates have been quietly pushing the ideaof a CEO who would set marketplace rules, coordinate with insurers and state regulators on the health plans offered for sale, supervise enrollment campaigns and oversee technology, according to several sources familiar with discussions between advocates and the Obama administration.

Supporters of the idea say it could help regain the trust of insurers and others whose confidence in the healthcare overhaul has been shaken by the technological woes that crippled the federal HealthCare.gov insurance shopping website and the flurry of sometimes-confusing administration rule changes that followed.

The advocates include former White House adviser Ezekiel Emanuel, the brother of President Barack Obama's former chief of staff Rahm Emanuel, and the Center for American Progress, the Washington think tank founded by John Podesta, the president's newly appointed senior counselor.

The White House is


(CMS) and its administrator, Marilyn Tavenner. Healthcare experts say there is no specific official dedicated to running the operation.

A CMS spokesman said exchange functions overlap across different groups within the agency's Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight.

The lack of a clear decision-making hierarchy was identified as a liability months before the disastrous October 1 launch of HealthCare.gov by the consulting firm McKinsey & Co.

Obama adviser Jeffrey Zients, who rescued the website from crippling technical glitches last month, also identified the lack of effective management as a problem.

POTENTIAL CEO CANDIDATES

Former Microsoft executive Kurt DelBene has replaced Zients as website manager, at least through the first half of 2014.

"We're fortunate that Kurt DelBene is now part of the administration - there's no one better able to help us keepmoving forward to make affordable, quality health insurance available to as many Americans as possible," Obama healthcare adviser Phil Schiliro said in a statement to Reuters.

The White House appears, for now, to be concentrating on ironing out the remaining glitches in HealthCare.gov to ensure millions more people are able to sign up for coverage in 2014. Good enrollment numbers are seen by both critics and supporters of Obamacare as a key measure of the program's success.

"So my sense is that they're not thinking about appointing a CEO in the short term," said Topher Spiro, a healthcare analyst with the Center for American Progress.

The CEO proposal calls for removing day-to-day control of the marketplace from the CMS bureaucracy and placing it under a leadership structure like those used in


some of the more successful state-run marketplaces, including California.

The new team would be managed by a CEO, or an executive director, who would run the marketplace like a business and answer directly to the White House, sources familiar with the discussions say.

They point to insurance industry and healthcare veterans as potential candidates, including former Aetna CEO Ronald Williams, former Kaiser Permanente CEO George Halvorson and Jon Kingsdale, who ran the Massachusetts health exchange established under former Governor Mitt Romney's 2006 healthcare reforms. None of the three was available for comment.

The new program calls to mind two kinds of vehicle sharing services. The first is car sharing. A good example is Car2Go, a Daimler AG-run company that lets users in cities in Germany and the US rent Smart cars by the minute. Users can park wherever they find a space, not at set stations, which fully solves the last mile problem.

The second is bike sharing. More than 500 cities around the world have a program, and while the specifics vary, the basic premise is usually the same:

About Jac

Jac O' Keeffe was raised in rural Ireland. Wanting to know about God she studied theology and music; however, after graduating in the 1980's, her studies left her disillusioned and a non-believer of organized religion and monotheism.

Turning her focus to issues of social inequality, she studied adult and community education, and began a successful career interweaving community development with the arts, eventually holding strategic, leadership positions at the national
headquarters of the Arts Council of Ireland and Macra na Feirme. In 1997, when Jac was working as a freelance, arts consultant, her sixth sense awakened, which dramatically changed her life. A busy practice in healing work developed within a short time in which Jac
offered private sessions and residential retreats.

She also worked closely with Dr. Michael Corry and Dr.Aine Tubridy in their practices of psychiatry and psychotherapy, respectively. Jac brought an energetic and spiritual perspective to their patient understanding. The book "Going Mad?: Understanding Mental Illness"
(Corry and Tubridy, Gill & MacMillan, 2001) was written about this work and further explores the combined approach. Jac and her team began to observe and understand that symptoms commonly labeled as mental health issues were actually indicators of a spiritual awakening (e.g. depression was recognized as a spiritual crisis rather than a bio-chemical disorder). To address depression from a spiritual perspective Jac developed and delivered holistic, residential programs that used these discoveries to effectively treat patients.

Jac left her work and her life in Ireland because she was drawn to deepen her own spiritual introspection. She closed a busy, private practice


in 2006. Her journey brought her to El Hierro, Spain and onto India where she lived for several years fully engaged in spiritual practices. Jac began to engage as a spiritual teacher from 2008 and published her first book "Born to be Free" (FliHi Media) in 2009. Jac spent some years where all thinking ceased. During this time she experienced uninterrupted, internal silence and a cessation of nighttime dreaming. Her personal quest led to the transcendence of dualistic thought, and there was realization of that which is beyond the mind. A direct and permanent experience of freedom prevails.

Jac cultivates wisdom in her clients and students. With the correct guidance and the application of tools, we can each recognize the truth that underpins all. Post enlightenment, Truth, existence andnon-duality are transcended and exposed as empty concepts. Going prior to what is and is not, prior to consciousness itself is the path from enlightenment to liberation. It includes the recognition that mystery is the absence of understanding.

Jac's work is an Exploration of Truth For Its Own Sake. Jac teaches and facilitates spiritual gatherings in question-and-answer format, offering clear pointers to spiritual seekers of Truth and liberation.

The awakening story goes like this...

There once was a hard working, independent, Guinness drinking Irish woman. She went by the name Jac O'Keeffe and fully believed she had a personal life directed by her own free will. In her twenties she was running in the fast lane; working and playing hard, driven by ideals and ambition. For many years she attended therapy,


usually psychotherapeutic in method, where she unraveled the stories of her childhood.

One Sunday afternoon, at the age of thirty, she was having lunch with friends. In an instant there was the appearance of ghosts all around the dining room. Her first response was that someone had slipped her a recreational tab – but that was not the case. This ability to see the non physical didn't go away and developed intensively over the following week. While it was totally unnerving and stimulated a fear-filled response, something within wanted to rise to the challenge to see what this was all about. Imagine standing at the service counter in your bank and when speaking with the teller an older lady appears behind her and directly asks jac to tell herdaughter (the bank clerk) to split with her boyfriend! Highly amusing and a total distraction from what was, up until then, the "real world". What was unfolding - the workings of the non physical reality - was more interesting than anything else life was offering at that time.

Exactly one week from the first sighted spook, a man appeared at the end of her bed in the dead of night and said he would tell all that she wanted to know about what was happening. A long conversation followed and in the end jac believed she made a decision to let "spirit" guide her way on. Within six months jac had wrapped up her contracts as a free lance arts consultant and began to work as a ghost buster.


According to divine economy, her ego was given a great bashing through this career move. For jac, it was the flakiest of all occupations, cutting through her self image and destroying any attachment to a career path. One year later ability to see chakras, auras and past lives kicked in and her client base shifted to living people. Her perspective of the world was changing quickly. The database of what can appear as real and seems to exist with authenticity was ever expanding and somehow unending, limitless. It was clear that beliefs were subjective mental limitations and entirely dependent on the conditioning active in any moment.

The concept of surrendering personal will to divine will made sense and her work became service.

Chanting and meditation as a daily practice wasand service, and the total surrender to whatever was urging on the remnants of a personal jac. There was a belief running that she would get sick if she remained as a householder. What to do but follow light – and at that point the physical sun seemed to offer more light than any other source, physical or non physical. She moved alone to a campsite in the south of Spain for three months. After a brief wrapping up visit to Ireland she moved to El Hierro, the silence and writing, nature and meditation dictated her lifestyle. A Spanish friend asked her to come to India and in Amma's ashram "Amritapuri" in Kerala jac has no recollection of a six day period during her stay there. She was
