Nel asks him if there was anything in his bail affidavit that wasn’t true. And he states no, he told the truth.

Nel wants to know if Oscar put the fans on the balcony or only one leg of the fan on the balcony. Oscar explains that he only put one leg of the standing fan on the balcony and the other two legs were inside. The small plastic fan was also on the carpet.

Nel asks to retrieve them, did he ever have to go outside and he says no, he didn’t have to go out onthe balcony?

This is huge. His story rides on Reeva getting up out of bed and him not seeing her. He originally claimed he was out on the balcony when this happened, that’s why he didn’t see her.

Oscar states he was standing by the amplifier when he heard the noise in the bathroom, the window opening.

So Nel wants to know if somebody made the statement that he went out on the balcony to retrieve the fans, would that be untrue? And Oscar agrees it would be. He did not go out on the balcony.

Nel was able to establish that portion of his bail affidavit was false.

As to the reference to only one fan in the bail affidavit and the two fans in the plea statement, Oscar explains that by

The exact origin of the Poitou breed is unknown, probably dating back to before 1884 when the studbook was created in France. During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, thousands of Poitou mules were produced and exported to Europe. After World War II, draft animals were replaced by engines and mule production began to drop off. In 1977, the breed was endangered with only 44 Poitou donkeys (20 males and 24 females) registered in France. Thus, an efficient breeding program was set up to save the breed, which led to the reconstitution of a larger breeding stock. In 2005, 82 jacks and 355 jennets were used in breeding


Angry voter threatens Registrar, says he needs to 'keep the n***** out of office' RAW STORY

Published: Wednesday October 8, 2008

Print This Email This A Monroe, Louisiana man is facing a felony terrorizing charge after a racially charged, profane exchange with his Registrar of Voters and police officers who would later arrest him.

75-year-old Wade Williams, arrested Wednesday morning, was angry that he hadn't yet received his voter registration card. According to the Ouachita Parish Sheriff's Office, Williams threatened a state official over the phone that he would "empty his shotgun," stating an urgent need to vote to "keep the nigger out of office." On the way to be booked at the Ouachita Correctional Center, Williams reportedly "continued his 'tirade' about niggers and also stated that he had a shotgun,

A man is facing charges after police say a woman was told to perform sexual acts on customers at a spa where she worked.

According to investigators, a 19-year-old woman began a relationship with a man on Facebook in 2013 and in the spring of 2016, both decided to move to Canada.

When the woman started a job at a spa in Toronto, police say she was directed by the man to perform sexual acts on the clients to earn more money.

The woman, investigators say, was given a specific quota that she was required to meet and if she didn’t meet the quota, the man would allegedly refuse to allow her into their home.

Police also allege that the man physically assaulted the woman on multiple occasions and would

Toronto Mayor John Tory picked option A.

The possibility of tolls on the Gardiner Expressway and Don Valley Parkway vaulted to the top of the local agenda this week when Mr. Tory said he would back the idea, touting it specifically as a way to raise money for infrastructure. The possible reduction of traffic on these highways was an afterthought.

Can't tolls do both? To a degree, yes. But it's complicated. Setting up a tolling system with the primary goal of raising money likely would not have as much impact


analyst and professor in the civil engineering faculty at the University of Minnesota, who has researched road pricing. "It's much easier to move from a toll to a toll with differentiated time of day prices than it is to move from no toll to tolling."People who burn the flag

According to legend, in 1796, George Washington asked Betsy Ross to sew the first version of the American flag. Yet unlike during the Republican National Convention, when protesters began burning the descendant of the very flag Betsy Ross originally sewed, during the Democratic National Convention, protesters began burning the blue, white, and not red Israeli flag. Here in the United States Americans are free to desecrate the any flag in any way, whether they burn, stomp, or spit on it. In Israel, they would not have the right to burn the Israeli flag without getting incarcerated. Earlier in the year, the Knesset passed a law that states that anyone who is caught “dishonoring the state flag” can be imprisoned for up to three years,


with additional time if they were burning it.

Here in the United States, we are free to burn our stripes any way we like. The First Amendment of the United States Constitution written by our founding fathers more than two centuries ago states, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” That is exactly why in the year 1989, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the defendant in Texas v. Johnson. Texas, who at the time had a law that prohibited desecrating the flag, was suing Johnson, who burned the UnitedStates flag during a protest. Since the lawsuit, a bill called the flag-burning bill was repeatedly tried in the Senate, with the last attempt to pass the bill in 2016, when the bill was not passed by one vote. I have always looked up to the flag of the United States as a symbol of achievement. Neil Armstrong’s first steps on the moon are represented by the flag that stands on the surface of our moon. The freedom of African-Americans not to be enslaved is represented by our flag, which to this day stands on the battlefields where the Union fought Confederates who defended slavery. And more than that our flag for me is a sign of achievement, from thirteen colonies to fifty states, including the diverse islands


Nate Torrence brings 'sun' to 'Mr. Sunshine'

The last thing viewers of the comedy "Mr. Sunshine" (8:30 p.m. Wednesdays, ABC) probably expected was to see sweet man-child Roman get a girlfriend.

Nate Torrence, who plays the son of the Sunshine Center's owner, Crystal (Allison Janney), is all smiles himself about the romance between Roman and office assistant Heather (Portia Doubleday).

"That's my favorite storyline of this show," said Torrence, who studied at Second City Player's Workshop in Chicago in the mid-1990s. "[The writers] really did a great job with making our relationship move forward."

Roman came to the convention and events facility in San Diego when Crystal, feeling guilty that she packed her son off to boarding school years ago and has barely had contact with him, let alone knows him, forcesthe center's manager, Ben (Matthew Perry), to hire Roman as his assistant to replace Heather, a nice gal despite being something of an arsonist.

In last week's episode, Heather and Roman (in photo below) go on a double date with Ben and Heather's sister. It doesn't go well for the second couple, but Heather and Roman kind of fall for each other in a sweet, first-love kind of way. Torrence was pleased with the episode and their scenes together.

"Portia Doubleday, not only is she really pretty, obviously, but she's just a great character actor. She brings so much funny to Heather," he said.

Torrence and I talked more about his co-stars, his time I Chicago and how playing the ever-optimistic Roman sometimes hurts. "He does give me a headache from


Specialty gas plant to soon open

One of two tanks that Pure CO2 purchased in Illinois sits at it's old site in Chicago. One of the tanks is presently in Nebraska where it is being hauled by a heavy transport vehicle.

Seventy years ago an entrepreneur set up a dry ice plant near Wellington utilizing gas from the ground that most people thought was worthless. That plant, that operated until three decades ago, put an monetary punch in an otherwise coal dependent community's economy.

"The guy that did that was a genius," said Troy Shelley, part of a partnership that will soon be utilizing that same gas to provide the impetus for all kinds of new industries in the area. "He took something no one wanted and made it worthwhile."

The dryice that came from that Wellington plant was shipped to many different places, but there was one problem. The dry ice was yellow instead of white, largely because of the sulfur contained in the gas that was used to make the ice. Consequently, as more and more white dry ice came on the market, the product began to suffer and soon the plant closed.

Today the gases that produced that dry ice are still there; embedded in rock far below the surface of the earth. In fact the deposit of the specialty gases involved in the present project are projected to be the third largest deposit in the United States, rivaled only by one in the southwest and in the Midwest. The fact it was so large, however, was


that two tanks, exactly as needed, were sitting on the shores of Lake Michigan in Chicago, Ill. So Shelly bought the tanks for a fraction of the price of new ones. He had been assured bringing the tanks to Utah would be no problem. However the estimated weight of the tanks was a much lower figure that he reality of their weight. Instead of a weight factor hovering around 200,000 pounds, when loaded on heavy haul equipment, the total weight of each tank alone was 275,000 when all was said and done. And when the transport company started to check out the permitting process for hauling such a large and heavy load 1500 miles, they found thatColorado didn't want that weight on their roads, nor did anyone wantingweren’t any “Arctic or Antarctic scientists” a mere half-decade ago, and bases weren’t even established until World War II followed by a hectic post-war expansion:

Bases were established during February (1944) near the abandoned Norwegian whaling station on Deception Island, where the Union Flag was hoisted in place of Argentine flags, and at Port Lockroy (on February 11) on the coast of Graham Land. A further base was founded at Hope Bay on February 13, 1945, after a failed attempt to unload stores on February 7, 1944. These bases were the first ever to be constructed on the mainland Antarctica.[10] The Operation provoked a massive expansion in international activity after the war. Chile organized its First Chilean Antarctic Expedition in 1947–48. Among other accomplishments, it brought the Chilean president


Gabriel González Videla to personally inaugurate one of its bases, thereby becoming the first head of state to set foot on the continent.[11] Signy Research Station (UK) was established in 1947, Australia’s Mawson Station in 1954, Dumont d’Urville Station was the first French station in 1956. In the same year McMurdo Station was built by the United States and the Mirny Station was established by the Soviet Union.

And, our record of observing Antarctica by satellite only extends back to 1979, as shown by this graph from NASA up to March 2017:

So basically, we’ve got about the length of a scientific career’s worth of observing actual data from Antarctica, and from NYT, we get history lessons:

Larsen C Ice Shelf rift finally breaks through

SWANSEA UNIVERSITY

July 12, 2017 – A one trillion tonne iceberg – one of the biggest ever recorded — has calved away from the Larsen C Ice Shelf in Antarctica, after a rift in the ice, monitored by the Swansea University-led MIDAS project, finally completed its path through the ice.

The calving occurred sometime between Monday 10th July and Wednesday 12th July, when a 5,800 square km section of Larsen C finally broke away.

The final breakthrough was detected in data from NASA’s Aqua MODIS satellite instrument, which images in the thermal infrared at a resolution of 1km.

The iceberg, which is likely to be named A68, weighs more than a trillion

My sister Becky also looked beautiful.

Cousin Jason left cold Utah and caught himself some rays. He was the first to officially make use of our swimming pool for 2013. He swam more than once, but I'm still just dipping my toes.

The youngest cousin, Karl, was also in town with his mom and brother as he was also on spring break. My sister, Lynette, and mother of Jason came from Kansas for a whole week. Lucky me!

Ashley will now have to share her DIL duties with Joy. I don't think she will mind. I give you the Ray women.

Youngest in the family, Daniel, is also camerashy. Happy sister Rachel will soon be on her way to an LDS mission in Kennewick, WA. She spoke in church on Sunday and the troops once again gathered round to hear her.

My youngest sister, Jolene, joined us from New Mexico.

And we wait for the bride and groom to make their appearance after being sealed for time and all eternity in the Mesa Arizona Temple.

Proud parents of the groom.

They now have half of their brood of six married.

Here they come!

Michael gives his fist pump.

Aren't they a striking couple?

And


sets of proud, happy parents.

It was a blue sky kind of day with temps in the low 90's. That is even warm for Arizonans this time of year.

Bridesmaids.

Wedding party.

There was lots of texture in the decor at the reception. Grandma Ray made the groomsmen ties out of burlap to get just the right texture and color. They looked great.

Special words with mom.

Beautiful colors. Those blush roses were so beautiful.

So was the bride.

After the leaving the temple, we gathered for a dinner of a taco bar. Extended family of both the bride and groom were in attendance.

Joy's something "blue."

Niece, Emma joined us for the party.

She and Joy's nephews broke in the dance floor.

Joy and Michael had worked hard to personalize their reception.

They included my sister's doublering wedding quilt made for her by our Grandma Rhoda. All of Rhoda's 20 plus grandchildren received such a quilt as a wedding gift.

They were able to use the backyard of a home just off Gilbert Road in north Mesa.

I love the heart shaped key on the entrance gate.

They painted this sign which was placed with flood lights at the end of the driveway.

This was their courtship picture board.

The bride does a last minute check before the reception.

She seems pleased.

Ready for a crowd.

Beverage station.

Round table decor including tubes of bubbles.

The cake.

Donuts from Joy's favorite donut shop.

Cookies made by friends and family. My contributions were the oatmeal chocolate chip and the chocolate frosted with a marshmallow surprise. The heart shaped sugar cookies were to die for.

Lovely dessert table. Once


they cut the cake, we also served cake.

Lovely sister Lisa.

And the sun began to go down and the lights came on.

They greeted guests in front of a lace backdrop which was back lit.

My bearded and very tall son drove from Utah that day. He was a great help come take down time. He also signed papers to sell his Mesa house on Monday before heading north again.

That dance floor was one busy place later in the evening.

It may have been warm that afternoon at the temple, but it was perfect in the evening.

The bride and groom also left us with words to live by.

Julianna loved all the cookies, juice boxes, and that dance floor. Great event, great family time, and great couple. Congratulations Michael and Joy!SIGNED T-SHIRT FROM BITCOIN EVANGELIST ROGER VER

Craighead, who lived to be 100, became the model for the modern principled biologist who stood his ground even when Frank Craighead, his twin brother, was about the only one who stood with him.

The Craigheads challenged the federal government’s plan in 1971 to close the dumps in Yellowstone


1950s and went to work for John Craighead in Missoula, studying pheasants. Craighead first showed him the Frank on a salmon fishing trip to the Chamberlain Basin.

Hornocker cut his sharp-tailed grouse hunt in eastern Montana short earlier this week and spent two days in Missoula with Craighead’s family. Frank Craighead died in Moose, Wyo., in 2001.

The two brothers wrote most of the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act that Idaho Democratic Sen. Frank Church sponsored in 1968. They were worried that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was seeking to build dams on every river it could at time. The Middle Fork was one of the original rivers protected, and today the Salmon River is one of the longest free-flowing rivers in the lower 48 states.

The Craigheads took onfragmenting sage grouse habitat.

Then he angered some environmentalists with his latest work that supported keeping the bird off the Endangered Species list in 2015. He met Craighead when he was studying wolves with another pivotal biologist David Mech.

“They were role models of how we should do research and present science,” Knick said.

Even more importantly, TV advertising is the single largest expense for most American congressional candidates, while in many other countries candidates are either forbidden from advertising on television or given free TV time. In most places there's substantial public funding of campaigns, and candidates are often forbidden from campaigning until a relatively short period before election day. Put all that together, and you have elections where, even if it would technically be legal to rain huge amounts of money down on candidates, nobody considers it worth their while (for instance, here's a nice description of the relative quiet of a German campaign).

BENGALURU: The case of the alleged molestation of a 23-year-old woman in Nagawara, north Bengaluru, on Friday took a curious turn with the arrest of her 34-year old brother-in-law, who, police said, stage-managed the entire incident.Irshad Khan, a sales executive, said in his statement to police that he was in a relationship with his sister-in-law and wanted to marry her. However, realizing his wife and other family members would object to it, he hatched a plan to get his sister-in-law tainted as a victim of sexual assault.This, he hoped, would ensure the woman's prospective alliances would turn her down, and he could seek her hand in marriage, police quoted Khan as saying. The plan was finalized after Khan saw footage of the Kammanahalli molestation case. Police said theyare yet to confirm if the woman too was actively involved in the plan. Sources privy to the probe, however, claimed she was part of the plan and investigation is under way to collect evidence against her.Hemant Nimbalkar, additional commissioner of police, east, said: “A case of molestation, a serious allegation, has been filed by the woman. We will continue investigation and based on evidence, further steps will be taken.“The woman, employed with a private company in Koramang ala, had complained to KG Halli police that she was attacked by a man near the bus stop on Nagawara Main road around 6am Friday, when she was headed to work. She said the man grabbed her and bit her. She said she went to a hospital later and was


treated for the bruises and bite mark on her lips.However, on Saturday, the woman changed her version claiming she herself bit her lips, raising doubts about the incident. Soon, the survivor's brother-in-law, who was raising a hue and cry about the safety of his relative, drew investigators' attention. Khan had convinced some social outfits in the area to protest against alleged police apathy and visited senior police officers as well.However, careful scanning of CCTV footage retrieved from a shop located near the crime scene threw up several leads, based on which investigators confronted Khan, who soon spilled the beans.Current Account Imbalances, that the whole – yes the whole – of the deterioration of the British current account deficit between the early 1970s and 2007 could be explained by the rise in British inequality. It is a similar, if less acute, story across the rest of the industrialised or, rather, deindustrialising west.

What the IMF team shows is that as the share of national income devoted to profits and top pay rises to its current levels, so a noxious economic dynamic is created. By definition, there is less of the pie available to the mass of wage earners, whose real wages become squeezed. To sustain their living standards, they borrow, which has been easier than ever over the past 40 years as banks take advantage of financial deregulation.


Overall demand thus carries on growing, but at the price of sucking in imports and ever higher personal debt levels for ordinary wage earners.

Finally, the music stops, as it has now, as both debt and import levels become unsustainable. The state of play in Britain – crazy levels of private sector debt and a record trade deficit – can thus be explained by the rise of inequality. And one of the chief causes of that, the IMF believes, is the decline in trade union bargaining power!

I would argue there is a further twist to the story. Inequality driven by weaker unions and labour market deregulation hits investment and innovation. Executive teams do not need to invest and innovate dynamically to earn rich personal rewards. They just need tobeen so unlovely, unimaginative and defensive – the reflex defenders of the incumbent, indefensible insiders' privileges and the status quo. Those with long memories will recall the militant opposition of the British trade union movement to co-determination – that is, putting workers on company boards – in the 1970s. Stupid.

Yet Britain, and the west for that matter, needs a way of making labour more powerful in its relations with capital. It seems an impossible ask. We need wage bargainers with more clout, but ones who behave rationally – pushing for more when it is genuinely there, but cutting deals and giving ground when the firms they work for have their backs to the wall. One way forward is co-determination, putting workers on company boards. Another would be to


UPDATE: On April 18, 2018, an Ontario Court of Justice judge found Dr. Allan Bortnick not guilty on all counts of sexual assault filed against him.

Police arrested and charged a Toronto chiropractor on Tuesday morning with another three counts of sexual assault for allegedly assaulting patients during treatment.

Dr. Allan Bortnick, 66, was already facing two previous charges of sexual assault. One count came in April 2015, when Bortnick was originally charged. Another was added on July 7.

He was operating as a chiropractor and naturopath at 1126 Eglinton Avenue West. He appeared in court on Tuesday morning.

According to Toronto police, the alleged sexual assaults took place on Monday Oct. 6, 2003; between January and December 2008; and Thursday, March 31, 2011.

Police believe there may be other victims.Rouse bribery scandal in 1991.

The brash, no-nonsense boss of Gunns Kilndried Timber Industries was ordered to present his 1989 work diary, but turned up to the commission to explain he could not find it.

He instead provided his 1990 diary, which was next to useless for the commission’s purposes.

Gay was mercilessly grilled by the commission’s senior counsel Richard Chesterman over the diary, and about a phone call he took from then premier Robin Gray, two days before the bribery scandal broke in June, 1989.

The timber boss said he remembered little of the phone call, and so Mr Chesterman reeled off chapter and verse of the conversation.

“Obviously you’ve had my phone tapped,” Gay retorted.

The phone bugging accusation made big news.

Gay had been ordered before the commission as a witness because


Rouse’s company had a stake in Gunns.

The commission built the case that Rouse feared a hung parliament, with Greens MPs in power, would threaten his timber interests, and so he posted Labor MP Jim Cox $10,000 in a bid to get him to cross the floor to the Liberals.

Rouse was jailed for two years for the bribery attempt.

Gray was found to have acted “deceitfully and dishonestly” and his conduct was described as grossly improper but not unlawful.

For Gay, the inquiry gave the public its first taste of a gruff timber boss who would become arguably the state’s most powerful man.

Born in Deloraine, Gay is the son of a sawmiller. His first job on leaving Hobart private school Hutchins was as a benchman in his dad’s mill.

Gay liked abeer and a round of golf but rarely indulged, preferring to work seven days a week. He was a hard man who called a spade a spade.

A Mercury reporter wrote in 2001: “Gay responds to questions more like a block splitter than a sawmiller’s blade — his style is blunt and direct.”

He joined Gunns in 1973 as manager of its Waverley sawmill. The business was set up by John and Thomas Gunn, sons of a Scottish farmer who emigrated to Tasmania in 1840.

In the late 1980s, Gay oversaw the merger of Gunns with Kilndried Timber Industries, resulting in the company being listed on the Australian Stock Exchange, and the acquisition of Hobart sawmiller Kemp and Denning.

However, it was after the bribery scandal that Gay began an ambitious expansion

In children of smokers whose babies had undetectable levels of NNAL in their urine, the average number of cigarettes smoked by family members was reported at 27 per week.

"With more sensitive analytical equipment, the NNAL from urine of babies in lower frequency cigarette smoking households would most likely be detectable," Hecht said.

Two women and a man in the UK have been sentenced to jail for modern slavery offences.

They were found guilty of trafficking and exploiting two teenage Vietnamese girls who were forced to work for little or no pay in Bath and Staffordshire.

Sentences ranged from a two-year suspended sentence, to five years in prison.

The human trafficking operation was discovered by Staffordshire and Avon & Somerset police.

Arrests were made at Nail Bar Deluxe in Abbey Arcade, Burton, and the two teenage girls were found at the premises.

The pair were moved around the UK and exploited through the control which was held over them, due to their lack of immigration status,


Mudaliar

Mudaliar (alternatively spelled: Muthaliar, Muthaliyar, Mudali, Muthali or Moodley) is a title used by people belonging to various Tamil castes. Castes using the title speak Tamil as their native language. The title was mostly used among Tamils from Tamil Nadu and Sri Lanka, and was given to a high-ranking military officer.

The title was primarily used by the communities like the Agamudayars, Karaiyars, Sengunthars and Vellalars. Other communities adopted it as means to present themselves as superior to the social status which they actually held.

Etymology
The title is derived from the Tamil word muthal meaning first with the suffix yaar denoting people. The title is used in the same sense as simply meaning headman.

Petitioner then requested and was granted a hearing before an ad hoc committee of physicians made up from members of the medical staff.
The hearing before the ad hoc committee was held November 25, 1975. Petitioner represented himself, assisted by Drs. Yadusky and Purcell. The department of psychiatry was represented by Dr. Louise G. Sherk, secretary of the department of psychiatry. The recommendation of the ad hoc committee was to uphold the recommendation of the credentials committee that petitioner's application for medical staff privileges be denied.
The recommendation of the ad hoc committee was reported to the executive committee of the medical staff and on December 9, 1975, the executive committee accepted the recommendation of the ad hoc committee. Petitioner then requested and was granted an appellate review hearing beforea committee of hospital's board of directors, hospital's governing body. The appellate review hearing was held on June 10, 1976. Petitioner was represented by counsel as was hospital. The report of the appellate review committee supported the recommendation of the department of psychiatry and the medical staff executive committee *974 that petitioner's application for medical staff membership be denied, and in August 1976 the board denied petitioner's application for medical staff privileges. Petitioner was so advised.
In June 1977, petitioner filed a petition for writ of mandate and damages in the Orange County Superior Court. An alternative writ issued and after trial, the court rendered judgment denying issuance of the peremptory writ, concluding that the administrative record contained substantial evidence to support the action of hospital's governing body in


was received, minutes were prepared, and the appellate review committee recommended to the governing body that the recommendation of the ad hoc committee to deny staff membership to petitioner be upheld. The appellate review committee adopted and incorporated *976 by reference the findings of the ad hoc committee (see fn. 4, ante).
The report of the appellate review committee was considered by the board of directors at its regular monthly meeting on December 15, 1980, and the recommendation of the appellate review committee that petitioner's application for medical staff privileges be denied was accepted. Petitioner was subsequently notified of the board's decision.
Pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 1094.5 petitioner then filed in the Orange County Superior Court a second petition for writ of mandate and damages. The matterwith which he had been associated. A letter dated April 1, 1969, from Dr. Michael Perley, acting director of medical education at St. Mary's Long Beach Hospital, stated that petitioner completed five months of internship at St. Mary's on June 30, 1962, with an average rating but that "[h]e did have some difficulty in his interpersonal relationships particularly in his response to criticism, ability to work with others, and leadership." In a letter dated January 30, 1970, signed by Dr. Paul Rubenstein, director *981 of professional services at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where petitioner served an internship from July 1, 1961 to January 31, 1962, it was stated: "During this period Dr. Pick, who was much older than his peers, developed many personality clashes with his colleagues and attending


physicians. He felt that maybe the demands of our program and the size of our institution were important factors in his personal performance and asked if he could complete his internship elsewhere. We agreed and supported his move." In a letter from Agnews State Hospital, dated June 10, 1969, signed by Dr. J. Elizabeth Jeffress, chief of professional education, it was stated: "Dr. Jan Pick was a resident here from July 1966 to June 1968. He performed satisfactorily as a resident but had some personality problems which interfered with his relationship with staff and colleagues. By mutual agreement he transferred to another program for his third year of training." In an evaluation dated October 27, 1969, by the chief of staff at Brea Hospital petitioner was rated "BelowAverage" with respect to the factors of emotional stability and professional relations with patients. In an evaluation dated April 28, 1975, by the chief of staff at Hoag Memorial Hospital, petitioner was rated "Below Average" in respect to emotional stability and control and professional relations with patients.
Immediately before he applied for medical staff membership at Santa Ana-Tustin Community Hospital in 1975, petitioner had been a member of the medical staff at Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian in Newport Beach. Pending an investigatory hearing into petitioner's difficulties with other members of the staff and with the anesthesiology department, petitioner resigned. He admitted during the hearing before the ad hoc committee that he resigned when it became apparent that his removal from the staff was imminent.
Dr. Sherk who was also a


member of the staff at Hoag and had had some professional dealings with petitioner testified at the November 25, 1975 hearing before the original ad hoc committee in substance as follows: "Dr. Pick allowed himself to become involved in an altercation with an anesthesiologist that led to a summary suspension from the staff. Because of a question of due process, Dr. Pick was reinstated until an Ad Hoc Committee could investigate this matter. It was recommended by the Ad Hoc Committee that Dr. Pick be removed from the Medical Staff because of specific problems relating to personality clashes with colleagues and attending physicians and continued difficulty with interpersonal relationships and inability to work with others. It was felt Dr. Pick consistently interfered and hampered employees and *982 staffand colleagues from delivering effective medical care to patients. The incident with the anesthesiologist at Hoag Memorial Hospital was the culmination in a series of problems that Dr. Pick manifested in his interpersonal relationships with staff during his membership. Dr. Pick chose to resign when it became apparent that his removal from the staff was imminent."[7]
Petitioner's version of his troubles at Hoag Memorial was that he was required to use the services of an anesthesiologist who in fact was completely untrained and incompetent and who showed up with the smell of liquor on his breath sometimes and sometimes did not show up at all. He complained about this and eventually made an entry concerning the matter on a chart after which "all hell broke loose." Thereafter, various anesthesiologists


failed to show up as scheduled and he also had disputes with his colleagues who he stated were "jealous" of him.
By a letter dated October 29, 1979, signed by Dr. Lawrence M. Greene, chairman of the credentials committee of the department of psychiatry, addressed to the administrator of Hoag Memorial Hospital, hospital attempted to obtain a copy of the transcript of the proceedings at Hoag Memorial involving petitioner, but Hoag Memorial declined to furnish a transcript stating only that petitioner was a member of the medical staff from November 1969 until June 1975 "at which time he voluntarily resigned from the staff." While petitioner testified that he did not request that the record be sealed at Hoag Memorial, it is a fair inference that he was unwilling toafter the date of the hearings in 1975 and 1976. (See fn. 2, ante.) On the advice of counsel he not only declined to file a new application but he refused to supply important and highly pertinent information concerning his professional activities after 1977. He did inform the several committees that he was no longer in private practice and was working on a part-time basis at Rio Hondo Hospital in Norwalk as an employee of the County of Los Angeles. However, at the continued hearing before the ad hoc committee on July *985 29, 1980, when petitioner was asked, "Have you resigned from any other medical staffs beside Hoag Memorial," he restricted his answer to the period before 1977. He responded: "I have not resigned  well, yes.


making a new application *986 for medical staff privileges if that is his desire and making a proper showing that he meets the qualifications for medical staff membership.
The judgment is affirmed.
Morris, Acting P.J., and McDaniel, J., concurred.
Appellant's petition for a hearing by the Supreme Court was denied June 30, 1982.

From time to time it has published and revised operating criteria for hospitals seeking to acquire or retain accredited status.

(Seepersonality conflicts with prior colleagues, supporting this Committee's determination that Dr. Pick's personality is such as would impair the high quality of medical care of the psychiatric unit at Santa Ana-Tustin Community Hospital if he were admitted as a staff member. In reference to Dr. Pick's witnesses presented in his own behalf, Dr. Gottschalk offered no evidence in support of Dr. Pick's behavior or medical practice since 1969. Though Chairman of the Department of Psychiatry at Orange County Medical Center, in which facility Dr. Pick served a residency, Dr. Gottschalk was unaware of any adverse relationships between Dr. Pick and the staff at other medical institutions where Dr. Pick previously practiced. Dr. Purcell does not practice psychiatry and, therefore, could make no competent statements concerning the ability of


Dr. Pick to practice effectively as a member of the Department of Psychiatry at Santa Ana-Tustin Community Hospital. Hence, the unanimous conclusion of the Ad Hoc Committee was that neither witness presented by Dr. Pick offered competent or persuasive evidence in his behalf which would justify his admission to the Santa Ana-Tustin Community Hospital Psychiatric Staff. The Committee further observed that although it would have been to Dr. Pick's advantage to be diplomatic, charismatic, and persuasive before the Committee, he was judged to be hostile, abrasive and accusatory, demonstrating poor judgment. This contemporary behavior is fully consistent with Dr. Pick's behavior reported by evaluations previously presented to this Committee."

Judges of the top court said there should be "no legal barrier" to releasing the nine people, including the island nation's exiled former president Mohamed Nasheed, whose terrorism and corruption convictions it overturned last week.

Their statement came after Attorney-General Mohamed Anil raised concerns about freeing people convicted of "terrorism, bomb attacks, corruption, embezzlement and fraud".

The opposition called Anil's order to the security forces "unconstitutional, highly illegal, and dangerous" and petitioned parliament to oust Anil, as well as the country's chief prosecutor.

Shortly afterwards, soldiers surrounded the parliament building and sealed it off.

The opposition now have a majority in the 85-member house as the Supreme Court ruling also reinstated 12 members of parliament who were stripped of their seats last year.

But two of the 12 were arrested at the airport on Sunday, shortly after they returned to the Maldives after spending months in exile.

Abdulla Sinan and Ilham Ahmed were detained on charges of bribery, a police spokesman told Al Jazeera.

Ibrahim Mohamed Solih, an opposition parliamentarian, condemned their arrest in a statement.

"We call on the police to releasethe MPs immediately, and to stop following unlawful orders, to stop obstructing the lawful mandate of parliamentarians," Solih said.

"In a desperate attempt to cling onto power, President Yameen has illegally overrun the state. His attorney-general has illegally assumed the powers of the apex court, while the military has overrun the legislature," he added.

On Sunday night, hundreds of flag-waving opposition supporters took to the streets of the capital Male calling on the government to abide by the court ruling.

"I have stepped down," Ahmed Mohamed told Al Jazeera on Sunday, without offering further details.

The heads of the Maldives' main high-security prison and the elections commission have also quit in recent days.

Nasheed, speaking to a private television channel from neighbouring Sri Lanka on Sunday, called for protests and urged rank-and-file members of the security forces to arrest the attorney-general as well as the chiefs of the army and police.

Rather than being merely seen as an object for derision, it has an opportunity again to rise to its early heights in the 50s and 60s. From kitsch, are we truly seeing a return to art?

Georgia representative Jason Spencer was humiliated by footage from "Who is America?", in which Cohen posed as a counterterrorism expert and taught Spencer a series of absurd self-defense techniques on camera.

Spencer had previously told The Washington Post: "I deeply regret the language I used," and claimed that Cohen had exploited his fear of terrorists to get him to embarrass himself.

Spencer planned to serve the remaining five months of his term, but cut that short as

He had already lost his primary, so there was never a possibility of his continuing in office beyond the next set of state elections.

The segment included ridiculous advice, including distinguishing terrorists from non-terrorists by posing as a Chinese tourist and using a selfie stick to take upskirt photographs of people wearing a burqa or niqab.

Today is the Queen's official birthday, despite the fact she was born in April.

It's a tradition that goes back to 1748 and is all about trying to make sure the weather is better for outdoor celebrations.

The Queen has two birthdays - her real one - on 21 April, as she was born on 21 April 1926.

Then a second one - the official celebration - on the second Saturday of June.

So why does the Queen have two birthdays, and how does she celebrate them?

Why not on the actual day?

PA Here is The Queen as a baby being held by her mum and dad, then known as the Duke and Duchess of York, in a photo taken on 1 May 1926

In the past, official celebrations to mark a


King or Queen's birthday in the UK have been held on a day that isn't their actual birthday.

The double birthday tradition was started more than 250 years ago by King George II in 1748.

He was born in November, which is not known in the UK for its good weather.

PA Here is the Queen as a baby being introduced to the world on the balcony of Buckingham Palace, alongside her parents and her grandparents

But King George wanted it to be possible to have a big public celebration - and November wasn't the time do it.

So, given that his actually birthday wouldn't be a good time of year for a birthday parade, he decided to combine it with an annual military parade in the summer, when the weather would hopefullybe nice.

And so this is where the tradition of an official, public summer birthday for the monarch began!

How does she mark her birthdays?

The Queen usually spends her actual birthday with her family.

There is usually a 41-gun salute in Hyde Park, a 21-gun salute in Windsor Great Park and a 62-gun salute at the Tower of London on April 21 but they have been cancelled this year because of the coronavirus pandemic.

A Buckingham Palace official said the monarch had decided it would not be appropriate at this time.

It is believed to be the first time in her 68-year reign that it hasn't happened.

On the day, normally a big parade starts at the Queen's official residence - Buckingham Palace - before moving along the Mall to Horse Guards Parade at Whitehall, near to Downing Street, and then back again.

Then it's traditional for the royal family to travel down the Mall as part of the ceremony, and gather on Buckingham Palace's balcony to greet well-wishers and watch RAF planes perform an aerial display for the occasion.Death Valley could reach 120 degrees Fahrenheit as temperatures across a huge swath of the U.S. reach triple-digit levels.

Irish News.

The New IRA "offer our full and sincere apologies to the partner, family and friends of Lyra McKee for her death", it said in a statement reported by the Irish newspaper, which said the paramilitary group used a recognised codeword.

McKee, 29, was shot in the head late Thursday as dissident republicans clashed with police in the Creggan housing estate in Northern Ireland's second city, also known as Derry.

While admitting responsibility, the New IRA attempted to justify its actions by claiming she was killed during an attack on "enemy forces" and accused police of provoking the riot which preceded her death.

"In the course of attacking the enemy Lyra McKee was tragically killed while standing beside enemy forces," the statement said.

"On Thursday night, following an incursion on the Cregganby heavily armed British crown forces which provoked rioting, the IRA deployed our volunteers to engage," the New IRA statement said, according to The Irish News.

In the wake of her death, Northern Ireland's six main political parties -- including rival unionists and republicans who have been unable to form a devolved government for more than two years -- issued a rare joint statement.

"It was a pointless and futile act to destroy the progress made over the last 20 years, which has the overwhelming support of people everywhere," it read.

The killing, the latest upsurge in violence to shake the troubled region, came in the run-up to Easter weekend, when republicans opposed to the British presence in Northern Ireland mark the anniversary of a 1916 uprising against British rule.

A car-bombing


and the hijacking of two vans in Londonderry earlier this year were also blamed on a dissident paramilitary group.

The 1998 Good Friday peace deal largely brought an end to three decades of sectarian bloodshed between republican and unionist paramilitaries, as well as British armed forces, in a period known as "the Troubles".

Some 3,500 people were killed in the conflict -- many at the hands of the Irish Republican Army (IRA).

The group called a final ceasefire in 1997 and announced an end to its armed campaign in 2005, stating that it would seek to achieve its aims through peaceful political means.

The New IRA is one of a number of dissident republican paramilitary groups opposed to the shift towards non-violent tactics to bring about a united Ireland.

Manuel Pellegrini gave playing time to seven Manchester City youngsters in their friendly win over Toronto.

Of the eight that travelled with the first-team squad for their post-season tour, Brandon Barker was the only EDS player not to get on the pitch against the MLS side.

Kelechi Iheanacho is still waiting for a Blues debut he craves, but will be focused on eclipsing Nigeria's previous quarter-final best.

"Nigeria haven't won the Under-20s for the first time so we have to work hard to set the record for the first time for Nigeria to win," he told M.E.N Sport.

"All the countries are very good. We have Brazil to play in the first game so we have to focus, make sure we win the first game and take it on from there."

Despite missing a pre-tournament training camp in Germany, Iheanacho - named Player of the Tournament at the Under-17 World Cuptwo years ago - was not concerned about linking up again with his teammates.

"It's not going to be a problem because I've been with them at the Under-17 World Cup so I know the way we play."

Also in the Nigeria squad is Chidibere Nwakali, an 18-year-old midfielder six months into a two-and-a-half year loan spell at Spanish side Malaga.

PERRIS, Calif. -- Bail has been set at $9 million each for the parents accused of imprisoning their 13 children inside their home in Southern California. They're being held on suspicion of torture and child endangerment.

The arrest of David and Louise Turpin was captured on a neighbor's security camera. The video shows them escorted by sheriff's deputies, one behind the other, and both appear handcuffed. About 45 minutes later, some of the children are seen outside, being loaded into a van.

Riverside County Sheriff's Capt. Greg Fellows says conditions inside the home were horrific.

"It was extremely dirty, and as we reported previously, many of the children were malnourished," Fellows said. "There werethree individuals that were chained to some type of furniture in the residence."

Their release from the house of horrors came around 7 a.m. Sunday. Police say a 17-year-old girl escaped from a window and called 911 from a deactivated cell phone. When police responded, she was so malnourished they thought she was 10 years old. Thirteen siblings in total were found: six children as young as 2, and seven adults as old as 29.

Their physical appearance shocked deputies.

David and Louise Turpin Riverside County Sheriff's Department

"I wish I could come to you today with information that would explain why this happened," said Fellows.

Here's what we know:

The family has been living in Perris, California since 2014.

The couple filed for bankruptcy twice.

The kids were homeschooled.

The home is listed as a private


school, with records showing David Turpin as the principal. The California Department of Education doesn't inspect or regulate private schools.

Officials say there are no signs of sexual abuse.

What we don't know:

How long the abuse went on, and why it seemed to go unnoticed and unreported.

Whether religion played a role in the treatment of the children.

Videos taken at the couple's renewal of their wedding vows in Las Vegas show the family together in celebration.

Wendy Martinez, like most neighbors, says she never saw anything troubling. She does remember once seeing four of the kids laying sod in the front yard around 9 p.m. one night.

"It was odd but nothing to call the cops about," Martinez said.

The sheriff and Child Protective Services both said they had no dealings with the familyby the experience of violence.

At the outbreak of the first world war, Kaiser Wilhelm II attached himself to these ritual formalities, declaring: “With heavy heart I have been compelled to mobilise my army against a neighbour at whose side it has fought on many a battlefield. With genuine sorrow do I witness the end of a friendship, which Germany loyally cherished. We draw the sword with a clean conscience and clean hands.”

But conflicts, and the language of propaganda attached to them, are coloured by the personality of leaders and by the nature of their regimes. This produces what Luis Veres, a researcher into the language of fascist Spain, memorably described as “lexical arsenals”.

There were 3081 hospitalisations of young people under the age of 20 for self-harm last year - up more than 200 on the year before.

The vast majority of those hurting themselves were girls and rangatahi Māori made up about 30 percent of those ending up in hospital.

Youth mental health campaigner Lucy McSweeny said it was time for urgent action.

"The numbers of self-harm hospitalisations are extremely distressing and far too high and increasing," she said.

"Those numbers exclude the many people who will self-harm and not tell anyone or the many people who may self-harm but not end up in hospital."

Lucy McSweeny said she wanted to see mental health education included in the school curriculum.

She said this would


also help young people who did not self-harm, but had friends who do.

Young people were amazing at offering support, she said, but it was about teaching them how to seek the best help for their friends in tough times.

Jean Andrews from the Counsellors' Association said school services were snowed under with serious cases of self-harm, which could include near suicidal behaviour.

She said that meant minor-to-moderate cases were not receiving the attention they needed.

Ms Andrews said more people may be ending up in hospital because there were not enough early interventions.

"We are certainly seeing self-harming increasing in the intermediate school age groups," she said.

"Also at high school, they are struggling to access counsellors because there is just simply not enough available in schools in particular but also in theWes Sharon

using a syndesmotic suture system such as the TightRope® (Arthrex, Naples, FL), or the Ziptite™ Fixation System (Biomet Sports Medicine, LLC, Warsaw, IN). The syndesmotic suture with its two washers is used to reduce and compress across the diastasis.

The distal end of the tibial epiphyseal cartilage is carved with a knife to the concavity of the tibial plafond, matching the convexity of the dome of the talus, creating a biologic arthroplasty. A retrograde axial wire, perpendicular to the sole of the foot, is passed through the dome of the talus, through the epiphysis of the distal tibia, and continues proximally into the tibial intramedullary canal. If the tibia has a varus diaphyseal bow to it, a percutaneous osteotomy should be made at the apex of this bow withis in the crease below the tip and the longitudinal distal limb is lateral to the tibia. Fasciotomy of the anterior compartment is carried out. The tip of the tibial bone is uncovered. The anterior compartment muscles are elevated off of the lateral aspect of the tibia, and an extra-periosteal path is dissected to the fibula along the interosseous membrane. The fibula is exposed subperiosteally. The tibia is osteotomized near its tip to create a fresh surface for union to the transferred fibula. The wires in the fibula are pulled back to the level of the planned osteotomy. The fibula osteotomy is made at the level of the tibial cut. The fibula is then shifted over to the tibia under the muscles. The fibula is fixed to the


pulled below the articular surface to prevent their protrusion into the knee joint. The medial and lateral perichondral flaps are sutured to the side of the fibula. The visor flaps can now be sewn across to each other. At the junction of the quadriceps muscle the remnant of the patella and the muscle are sutured to the inferior visor flap, that was flipped upwards. The remnant of the patella is also sutured to this capsular flap. The inferior aspect of this capsular flap is sutured to the superior edge of the patella in its new position. The inferior aspect of the patella, which is now posterior, is sutured to the posterior capsule. The biceps and semitendinosis tendons are sutured to the lateral and medial aspects of the fibularespectively. The skin is closed in layers over a drain. The wires in the foot can be reinserted. The distal ring is fixed and tensioned to these three wires. The proximal and distal rings are connected with struts. A transverse wire is drilled into the distal fibula and then arced and tensioned to the foot ring, which compresses the ankle fusion site. The two hook wires exiting the plantar aspect of the foot are secured to the foot ring under slight tension.

The external fixator remains on for 3--4 more months. After the external fixator is removed, the patient goes into a cast for a month; when the cast is removed they are fitted for a hip--knee--ankle--foot--orthotic (HKAFO). The brace is reduced from an HKAFO to a KAFO, after a


during distraction. Then, one proximal and one distal circular fixator ring is applied with two half pins in the proximal femur (one up the femoral neck and one transverse at the level of the lesser trochanter) and one wire on the proximal ring in the mid-femur. A distal ring on the foot is applied, with three anterior posterior wires in the foot (one from posterior midcalcaneus to the anterior mid-forefoot, one from posteromedial calcaneus to the anterolateral forefoot, and one from the posterolateral calcaneus to the anteromedial forefoot) and one transverse wire across the ossific nucleus of the talus. Six struts are connected between the femoral and the foot ring. The computer-dependent external fixator planning is done relative to the proximal ring for the knee joint contractures. Oncewas removed at the start of the procedure, is reapplied with the circular fixator struts. The foot is immobilized in a plantigrade position and the knee in full extension. One transverse fibular wire is inserted to compress the ankle fusion and to slightly distract the knee. Hinges are placed at the knee to allow the knee to be ranged passively in therapy and at home. The knee is always locked in extension during walking and at rest so as to allow the transferred muscles to heal. An alternative and older method was to advance the fibular wire across the knee to allow the ligaments, capsule and transferred muscles to heal before moving the knee. This wire would be removed 6 months later. The external fixator is left in situ


A man who was knocked unconscious after he flew out of his raft in white water was dramatically rescued within seconds by a river guide who sprung into action.

River guide Russ Cole was watching on as a group of four rafters took the plunge over 14-foot Husum Falls in Washington's White Salmon River. While plunging over the falls, one of the men in the boat was able to cling to the edge of the raft, but another hit his head and flew from the raft.

Apparently knocked unconscious, the man, who has not been identified, began to float down river. With the water raging around them, Cole, who was standing on the bank monitoring the falls, dove in. Within seconds he managed to pull the man to a rockyembankment.

"After I yelled to him a couple of times, I could tell he wasn't turning over," Cole said. "He had his bell rung seriously."

After a few minutes on the river bank the man came to, dazed and confused, but otherwise unharmed. And the first thing he said to Cole?

"'Where am I and how did I get here?'" Cole said the rafter said. "I told him, 'you ran a waterfall and we warned you not to do it,' and he said, 'but I had fun.' And at the end of the day he said he was coming back!"

Cole told ABC Portland affiliate KATU that after 25 years on the river, this was his first time having to dive in and rescue someone in this fashion.

UF Law student wins $65K argument

With a six-figure payout, a performance by Snoop Dogg and a rooftop party in Brooklyn, the Philip R. Shawe Scholarship Competition is not your typical law school moot court competition.

When the Delaware Supreme Court affirmed the forced sale of his company, Philip Shawe, the co-CEO of TransPerfect, went looking for fresh legal advice. But instead of turning to his lawyers, he created a one-time scholarship to attract legal briefs from second- and third-year law students.

The scholarship awarded $115,000 in prize money to the three law school students who prepared the best arguments to the U.S. Supreme Court for reversing the sale of his $500 million company.

Calls for Australia to rapidly phase out coal

Coal is expected to be high on the summit’s agenda, with coal responsible for 46 per cent of global carbon dioxide emissions according to the International Energy Agency (IEA).

Countries like Australia, Japan and South Africa who support the coal industry have consequently been removed from the summit’s draft speaking schedule, along with countries that have been critical of the Paris climate accord, such as the United States, Brazil and Saudi Arabia.

Dr Rice wants the government to realise Australia is already being affected by climate change and it will only get worse.

"Australia needs to rapidly phase out coal,


oil and gas - they are driving up emissions, they are worsening extreme weather events”, he said.

“Events that are unfolding as we speak today with devastating bushfires in Queensland and New South Wales, and ongoing drought conditions."

Greenpeace Australia's Head of the Pacific, Joseph Moeono-Kolio, believes the government has an obligation to address climate change as Australia's emissions affect the entire Pacific region and beyond.

"Emissions in Australia just keep going up and these are statistics from the Australian government as well. So they need to actually do their duty of care as a Pacific Island Forum Nation country and not put the rest of the region at risk" he said.

Morrison accused of ‘cowardice’ over climate policy: Greens

Prime Minister Scott Morrison is also being criticised for not attending the summitin New York, despite being in the United States on an official visit.

In particular, Greens MP Adam Bandt has said it is embarrassing that Mr Morrison chose to prioritise US President Donald Trump over addressing climate change.

"I think it's a combination of cowardice and contempt,” Mr Bandt said.

“Scott Morrison knows that at this summit world leaders are being asked to more aggressively cut pollution and to start to rein in coal, and Scott Morrison obviously doesn't want to do that. He'd prefer to hang out with Donald Trump instead."

Greenpeace Australia's Mr Moeono-Kolio said attending the summit would have been a vital learning opportunity for the Prime Minister.

"He should be listening to what the rest of the world is saying about the situation. It is not just a localised
