Instead of a bunny this Easter, try a Tiger instead!

A dear friend of mine, a clinical psychologist once told me a story about himself. Although he was a great listener and was a fount of wisdom, he had always found it difficult to assert himself. He confided this to a colleague who gave him the following advice: he told him that the next time he went out for a coffee, he was to ask the waiter to take it back as it wasn't the right temperature - even if it was. As he tells it, he found it so hard on the first few occasions, but after that her "got over it" and from then on it never troubled him about confronting those sorts oftelephone.

"The news that South Sudan is withdrawing from Heglig is encouraging. But in Khartoum in the north, they are saying they have taken Heglig militarily"

- Jonathan Temin, the director of the Sudan Programme for the US Institute of Peace

Border clashes between Sudan and South Sudan escalated last week with waves of air strikes hitting the South, and Juba seizing the Heglig oil hub on April 10.

While religious leaders in the north were calling for a holy war during Friday prayers to reclaim the territory, Barnaba Marial Benjamin, South Sudan's information minister, gave the first word that the crisis, which had sparked a flurry of diplomatic activity to avert a full-scale was,


was easing.

"An orderly withdrawal will commence immediately and shall be completed within three days," he said, reading a presidential statement.

Benjamin said the ownership of the region would be decided by the court of arbitration.

Jonathan Temin, the director of the Sudan Programme for the US Institute of Peace, told Al Jazeera that "this is the highest level of violence that we have seen between Sudan and South Sudan in recent years".

Arab League meeting

The confusion about the fate of Heglig comes as the Arab League said it would hold an emergency meeting over renewed violence between Sudan and South Sudan.

Ahmed bin Helli, deputy secretary-general, said on Thursday that the meeting, requested by Sudan, would bring together the regional bloc's foreign ministers and would be held next week in Cairo, theEgyptian capital.

South Sudan, which gained independence last July after voting in a referendum to secede from Sudan, claims it occupied Heglig after it was attacked by the Sudanese army.

It had ignored calls by the international community to pull its troops out, saying it was defending its territorial integrity.

Ban Ki-moon, the UN secretary-general, called the south's seizure of Heglig an "illegal act" and urged the two nations to negotiate to avoid all-out war.

A ruling by the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague in 2009 appears to put Heglig in the Sudan state of Southern Kordofan, which the South now disputes.

The lastest developments come as a US envoy said on Thursday that Sudan had agreed "in principle" to allow assistance into Southern Kordofan, where aid workers say that


Rep. Jerry Nadler, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, has requested all records of communications between the US Justice Department and the special counsel Robert Mueller's office about the final report in the Russia investigation.

Nadler specified that the committee was seeking communications "regarding the disclosure of the report to Congress, the disclosure of the report to the public, and those regarding your March 24 letter that purports to 'summarize the principal conclusions reached by the Special Counsel and the results of his investigation.'"

Nadler's request, which he outlined in a letter to Attorney General William Barr on Thursday, comes after reports that some members of Mueller's team are frustrated with the way Barr characterized their findings in the Russia probe in a four-page letter he sent to CongressIf this year’s NPB All-Star Series was about anything, it was about Shohei Otani.

Media and fans couldn’t get enough of the 19-year-old Hokkaido Nippon Ham Fighters rookie, and it was a good thing too, because he was everywhere.

He pitched, he hit, and he played the field, but no matter where he was, Otani was the unquestioned center of attention.

Otani was known to baseball fans long before the All-Star Series — he was cast in the spotlight after nearly heading to the majors out of high school, and was the subject of a New York Times feature July 10 — but with all of Japanese baseball’s attention trained on the All-Star proceedings, the series ended up being a de facto coming-out party for the teen, who is 2-0 as


a great fastball.”

In the outfield, Otani made a great standing throw after a catch to almost pick off Tsuyoshi Nishioka at second base, further showing off his range of talent.

In Game 2, Otani became the first rookie out of high school to hit leadoff in an All-Star game and opened the contest with a double, finishing 1-for-4, and later played both right and left field.

The rookie was one of the heroes of the finale on Monday, driving in the game-tying run with a single in the eighth inning. Otani scored the tie-breaking run later in the frame, coming home on Fukuoka Softbank Hawks outfielder Seiichi Uchikawa’s two-run double, and the PL went on to score a 3-1 come-from-behind victory.

OMNIBUS ORDER
EDWARD B. DAVIS, Chief Judge.
BEFORE THE COURT are numerous cross-motions for summary judgment and motions to dismiss. After reviewing all of the voluminous motions and the relevant case law, and after hearing oral argument, the Court enters summary judgment in favor of the Defendants.

I. FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND
The genesis of this lawsuit is the November 4, 1997, Miami Mayoral election.[1] On November 4, 1997, the City of Miami held a general election for the position of Executive Mayor, with Joe Carollo and Xavier Suarez as the primary contenders. Neither Carollo nor Suarez received a majority of the overall votes; therefore, the City held a run-off


election on November 13, 1997. In that election, Suarez defected Carollo in both precinct votes and absentee votes. On November 14, 1997, those results were certified and Suarez assumed the position of Mayor of the City of Miami.
Three Miami voters brought an in rem state lawsuit challenging the vote count in the first election pursuant to Section 102.166, Fla. Stat. (1997). Carollo and Suarez intervened in that action. The Plaintiffs in this case did not.
Judge Thomas Wilson, Jr., for the Circuit Court of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit of Florida, found that massive absentee voter fraud tainted the electoral process.
"Witness after witness testified, without contradiction, that they either 1) did not vote, 2) did not sign the ballots in question, 3) did not live in the district in whichcitizens to vote by absentee ballot. Id. After citizens took the bait, the Rhode Island Supreme Court found that absentee voting was not authorized for primary elections and invalidated those votes. The court then ordered the decertification of the winner and the board of canvassers certified a new winner based solely on the machine cast votes. Id.
The absentee voters then filed a class action in federal court alleging that the Rhode Island Supreme Court, by invalidating their votes violated the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The district court agreed and the First Circuit affirmed, finding that plaintiffs had relied on the government's assurances that absentee ballots would be counted. Id. at 1067. Based on these unique circumstances, the First Circuit found "broad-gauged unfairness" which implicated the

On Apokolips, Darkseid is content with his domination. Desaad reminds him of Earth and its heroes. Darkseid notes that not only do Earth’s heroes perform heroic deeds, but they act as legends, inspiring others. Deciding to strike at the concept of legends, Darkseid summons Glorious Godfrey and Doctor Bedlam, and orders Desaad to prepare the Techno-Seed.

On Earth, Professor Stein oversees a nuclear experiment when the Techno-Seed materialises in the core, spawning the inhuman monster, Brimstone. Stein summons Firestorm, who assaults Brimstone, but quickly discovers that the monster is far superior to him. Thinking quickly, Firestorm protects himself byturning the air to asbestos, and goes to summon help.

Elsewhere, the Flash faces off against Deadshot. He quickly defeats the assassin, delivers him to the police, and returns to Titans Tower, where Changeling is watching the latest broadcast from G. Gordon Godfrey, interviewed by Billy Batson, who rails against all super-heroes, calling them threats to society. As the two Titans talk, a power outage strikes both the Tower and the studio where the interview is taking place. The outage is caused by an armoured giant rampaging in the neighbourhood. Under the cover of darkness, Billy slips away and transforms to Captain Marvel.

Captain Marvel and the giant, Macro-Man, fight, but when Marvel is caught in Macro-Man’s vice-like grip, he decides that the only way for him to escape is


to change back into Billy Batson briefly. Calling down his magical lightning, Billy is shocked to see that the bolt also struck Macro-Man, causing him to fall from the rooftop to a fiery death.

In the Pentagon, Colonel Rick Flag reports to Amanda Waller, and is ordered to reform Task Force X. He is shocked by the list of candidates for the Task Force, but puts his surprise aside to do his job.

In a diner, Cosmic Boy’s breakfast is interrupted by the onslaught of Brimstone. The Legionnaire attacks, attempting to construct a metallic prison to contain Brimstone, but his attack is soon repelled. The Justice League of America arrive to lend their help.

Viewing the melted corpse of the Macro-Man, Billy Batson vows never to become Captain Marvel again.

G. Gordon Godfrey arrives at the site of Macro Man’s death, using it as an opportunity to decry not only heroes but the concept of being a hero. His words whip the onlooking crowd into a frenzy, scaring the confused Billy Batson into hiding. Darkseid watches Batson’s despair with glee, before turning to the Phantom Stranger, promising to remove free will from the people of Earth.

On Earth, Brimstone faces off against the Justice League of America. Although Vibe is able to topple the giant, Brimstone fights back, burying the League underneath a collapsing building. Meanwhile, Rick Flag visits Deadshot in prison, enlisting him into Task


Force X. At the same time, in Gotham, Batman and Robin break a hostage situation. The commander of the arriving SWAT team clashes with Commissioner Gordon when he prevents him from taking down the heroes. Suddenly, the onlooking crowd turns, attacking and carrying Robin away whilst Batman is unable to help when a bottle of perfume is smashed in his face.

In Chicago, Blue Beetle carries out a drug bust, but unwittingly exposes a deep cover police officer. The attending policemen open fire on Beetle, who escapes in his bug ship. Meanwhile, Guy Gardner rescues an aeroplane whose engine has exploded mid-flight, guiding it to a makeshift landing on the freeway. However, the commuters on the road turn aggressive at the disruption caused to them. Gardner uses his ringto repel them before flying away.

At Titans Tower, Cosmic Boy recovers from his combat with Brimstone, revealing to Flash and Changeling that the Justice League had disappeared by the time he came round. He flies off to rescue ‘the love of his life’. Watching news reports of the League’s defeat, Professor Ivo prepares to make his move.

Superman meets with President Reagan in the White House, where Reagan informs him that he is about to issue an executive order, banning all super-hero activities until the public disorder has passed. Later in Gotham, two policeman discover the battered and beaten body of Robin.

These first two parts of the Legends crossover take a very wide-angled view of the state of the DC Universe. reading with hindsight reveals some strong comparisons, especially


the way that the then-current Justice League (Detroit) fares against the yet-to-be-formed Justice League International. The defeats of the heroes hurt. The entire League is beaten and missing in battle, whilst Billy Batson's pain at believing that he has killed the Macro-Man is very tangible. Other heroes find themselves lost and without a cause when faced with the negative reactions of the public. By the end of the second issue, where Superman bows his head in acceptance of President Reagen's executive order and Jason Todd lies unconscious in the street, there is a very real sense that the tide has turned against the heroes.

John Byrne draws the heck out of these issues. I do marvel at his ability to turn out great-looking comics. At the time of thisissue's production, Byrne was likely working on the first few issues of Superman and Action Comics, yet he still found the time to produce six issues showcasing almost every major hero in the DC universe. In particular, Byrne's renditions of Darkseid are masterful. In fact, I'd be happy to list Byrne as one of my top three Darkseid pencillers, along with JG Jones (Final Crisis) and Jack Kirby. Byrne gives us an intricately detailed Darkseid, with maliciousness oozing from every frame. When Darkseid grins, it's a grin that should terrify any onlooker. The final panel of issue #1, with Darkseid looming in the background revelling in the success of his plans, could easily have looked goofy in the hands of a lesser artist, but a rarely-seen laugh from


to boast to and turning his campaign against Earth's heroes into something more akin to efforts to impress an unimpressed colleague.

These complaints aside, these are strong issues, featuring super-hero action and a strong, logical drive to the plot and threat. What is really enjoyable is watching Ostrander pull task Force X together, and next time, we'll see how well they do on their first mission.

The Geeky Bits:

Legends was the first event for DC, following Crisis on Infinite Earths. Originally planned as more of a direct sequel, Legends eventually grew to be its own unique story. John Byrne was picked for the art, although his workload with Superman meant that he only had time for 6 issues, not the planned 8. This reduction in length may account for theconfusing nature of the Phantom Stranger's appearance in the story, with his introduction a casualty of editing the story down.

A large number of DC titles crossed over into Legends, with 22 official tie-ins alongside the six issue miniseries. A full list can be found at the DC Crossover Checklist over at the Fortress of Baileytude.

For late 18th-century German philosopher Immanuel Kant, rationality was the litmus test for humanity, embedded in his categorical claim that the human being was “an animal endowed with the capacity of reason”:

[The human is] markedly distinguished from all other living beings by his technical predisposition for manipulating things (mechanically joined with consciousness), by his pragmatic predisposition (to use other human beings skillfully for his purposes), and by the moral predisposition in his being (to treat himself and others according to the principle of freedom under the laws.)

people, walking is a challenging feat all by itself – just ask my daughter when she was 17 months old or my neighbor Bert Zablinski after his weekly Friday night game of Tequila Shot Twister. Apparently, walking, when combined with texting, can have embarrassing results – and may even be deadly.

Last year, a woman was caught on a video surveillance camera texting while walking through the concourse of a shopping mall. She stumbled right into the mall fountain, gracefully entering the water with a half twist in the pike position, scoring all 9’s except for a 6.5 from the Russian judge.

Earlier this year, a Michigan woman walking along a pier was so distracted from texting that she tripped and fell into Lake Michigan. It could have been muchby the wisdom of the ages-old Christian contemplative tradition. What emerges is a radical view of Mary Magdalene as Jesus’s most important disciple, the one he considered to understand his teaching best. That teaching was characterized by a nondualistic approach to the world and by a deep understanding of the value of the feminine. Cynthia shows how an understanding of Mary Magdalene can revitalize contemporary Christianity, how Christians and others can, through her, find their way to Jesus’s original teachings and apply them to their modern lives.

January 12, 2016 CHAPEL HILL, NC - It is well established that people with cystic fibrosis (CF) have two faulty copies of the CFTR gene, but debate continues on the question of whether certain symptoms of the airway disease are caused by the mutation or if the genetic defect precedes, but does not directly lead to some of the worst symptoms patients face.

Carla Ribeiro, PhD, associate professor of medicine, and her colleagues at the UNC Marsico Lung Institute/Cystic Fibrosis Research Center fall into the latter camp. A paper from this group, published in the American Journal of Critical Care Medicine, suggests new targets for therapy and further bolsters the case for inflammation as an acquired response unrelated to the CFTR genetic mutation.

"By studying alveolar macrophages, which provide ourhave implications in airway diseases beyond CF, including COPD and asthma.

In an editorial published along with the article, the potential therapeutic impact was forecast:

"Interventions aimed at XBP-1 or other molecules associated with sustaining the proinflammatory phenotype in the CF lung, in combination with antimicrobials and CFTR modulators, may provide improved resolution of infection and inflammation."

Vikings offseason workout program kicks off

Blog Post by: Matt Vensel

April 7, 2014 - 8:14 AM

Vikings players will get their first chance to make an impression on Mike Zimmer and his staff this week.

The Vikings on Monday will kick off their offseason workout program at Winter Park. Because they have a new head coach in Zimmer, the Vikings (and the six other NFL teams with new head coaches) are allowed to start their offseason programs two weeks before teams that have coaches returning.

During the first two weeks of the voluntary program, players are permitted to work with strength and conditioning coaches, rehab injuries and quarterbacks can throw passes to uncovered receivers. They are also allowed to talk about football with Zimmer and his staff, something they couldn't do beforeThe use of broadheads is well known in the bow hunting art and various broadheads including both expanding and fixed blade types are available. The function of the expanding blade is to provide a relatively small, inflight dimension with the blades being outwardly moveable upon striking a target, to expand the blades to an open position. The fixed blade maintains its dimension during flight and when entering the target. The advantage of the small, inflight dimension of the expanding broadhead is the trueness of flight, which is available, as cross winds will not affect the flight, as they are at to do with a solid blade design. Typically, expanding prior art blades are hinged to the broadhead body at a rearward blade edge. In the retracted position, a


In the 1930s the Long Beach Airport was owned by that city and was also used as a Naval Reserveair station. In the late 1930s and early 1940s, the United States Navy perceived as a hostile attitude on the part of the City of Long Beach regarding improvements and maintenance of Long Beach Airport. Without telling the Long Beach officials, the Navy began looking for a new place for its flight operations. Admiral Ernest J. King, then the Chief of the Bureau of Aeronautics, and Admirals William D. Leahy, Joseph K. Taussig, and Allen E. Smith pointedly requested that the city of Long Beach repair the runways and reminded the city that the Pacific Fleet, then laying offshore in both Long Beach and San Pedro harbors, had apayroll of more than $1 million a month. Eventually the city complied with the Navy's requests.

Still, the city continued to show a hostile attitude toward approving a lease on any additional land that the Naval Reserve required.

The Navy was fed up with the city of Long Beach. It decided upon the purchase of some property owned by Susanna Bixby Bryant, a fact made known by the commander of the base, Commander Thomas A. Gray, to the Chief of the Bureau of Aeronautics, Admiral John H. Towers. The circumstances behind the purchase were revealed to James V. Forrestal, Under Secretary of the Navy, and by him to the House Naval Affairs committee who approved the purchase. Although Comdr. Gray had offered Mrs. Bryant $350 an acre, in the best


patriotic spirit she sold the property at $300 an acre. The land is 4 miles east of the Long Beach Airport.

With the site acquired, in 1941, construction funds soon followed and Naval Reserve Air Base (NRAB) Los Alamitos began to take shape. The new base provided many jobs and spurred modest growth. On 1 June 1941, operations moved from Long Beach to Los Alamitos.

By May 1942, Los Alamitos was operating with a complete physical plant including administrative office, sick bay, a synthetic training facility, central files, classroom, and an assembly & repair department. With a station complement of about 2,500 officers and men, the initial aviation cadets began their training. The first graduating class numbered 729 cadets, 180 having washedout. By the end of the year, the base's 36 planes had increased to 140, and in 1943, five outlying fields were acquired, Training was carried out mostly in plywood planes. When changed from the command of the Naval Primary Training Command to that of Naval Air Center, Eleventh Naval District, on 15 August 1943, it was used to station carrier air groups. Renamed a naval air station, its flight operations were conducted by a Fleet Air Detachment, with station complement dropping from about 250 officers and 2000 men to 40 officers and 500 men and the Assembly and Repair Department discontinued but still used by the CASU on board. Many CASUs and ARGUSs (groups to establish forward air bases) were formed at and dispatched from Los Alamitos


during the war. With additional construction undertaken after mid-1943, the total investment at the station to 1 January 1945 was $4,827,014.64. Growing from one officer, one man, and one plane in 1928, Los Alamitos in 1945 had become one of the Navy's most important air stations.

On 15 August 1943 it became an operational training base for training of fleet units and was reclassified as a Naval Air Station. In addition to providing training, the base serviced aircraft from the battle fleet, including carrier air groups from USSLexington, Saratoga, and Langley.

NRAB Los Alamitos was initially under the command of the naval operating base at San Pedro, California. Like other Naval Reserve Air Bases established during the 1930s, it fell under the command of the Naval Air Primary Training Commandon 1 October 1942; Naval Air Center, Eleventh Naval District, San Diego, on 15 August 1943; and finally Naval Air Bases, Eleventh Naval District, on 10 August 1944. As an NRAB, the mission of Los Alamitos was to instruct, train and drill Naval Reserve aviation personnel living in the Eleventh Naval District.

As was the case with other naval air stations retained in operating status following the war, Los Alamitos suffered a period of transitions and changes. Under the command of the Chief of Naval Air Training at NAS Pensacola, its missions were to train reservists and service the fleet. On 1 March 1946, while it provided training, CASU 33 supported Air Group 98, but the devotion of activity could be measured by the fact that, as of 28


February 1946, it had only ninety-seven V-6 personnel on active duty as station keepers, yet until the end of September this group provided proficiency flying for more than 1,500 inactive reserve pilots. Meanwhile, CASU 706 supported Patrol Squadron 908 (VP-908), Escort Carrier Air Groups 779 and 778, and Carrier Air Group 716. On 16 August 1946, the first group of aviation cadets in the Selective Training Program came on board, and after 1 September, the station would be used by the Naval Air Transport Service (NATS). On 13 October, the record-making Truculent Turtle, which had flown nonstop for almost 4,500 miles, paid the station a visit. By the end of 1946, with 243 reserve pilots, 1,375 volunteer reserve pilots, 255 inactive reserve enlisted men, and 368 active dutystation keepers, Los Alamitos was one of the busiest Naval Air Reserve Stations. Between January and March 1947, the station became the largest in the entire Naval Reserve air training program.

On 17 May 1947, the administration of NAF Litchfield Park, southwest of downtown Phoenix, Arizona, was placed under Los Alamitos to serve volunteer reserve aviation personnel in the Phoenix-Tucson area. With 1,300 organized reservists, 1,682 inactive reservists, 12 over-aged reservists, 7 women reservists, and 583 station keepers, Los Alamitos remained the largest Naval Air Reserve Station in the United States.

On board during the first quarter of 1948 were a light carrier aircraft group (CLG); two carrier air groups; two escort carrier air groups; two patrol plane squadrons; three transport squadrons; four fleet aircraft service squadrons; two Marine fighting


squadrons and a Marine ground control interceptor unit; two volunteer units, one at Litchfield, one on the station proper; a NATS Unit; GCA; and an all-weather station. Until it was decided that there were not enough personnel to continue associated volunteer units at Bakersfield Municipal Airport and Santa Barbara, Los Alamitos assumed administrative responsibilities for them. At the station full operations were carried on for five days a week from 0730 to 1630. Saturday night was reserved for night flying. Operations were limited on Mondays and Thursdays; weekends were madhouses as the "weekend warriors" came on board.

On 7 November 1949, Los Alamitos received its first jet aircraft, an FJ-1 Fury. With all FGs replaced with F6F Hellcats, a reorganisation occurred on 1 December 1950 in which there wasprovided a wing staff with twenty-five squadrons. During the summer of 1950, 105 midshipmen from the United States Naval Academy reported for four days of an air cruise and 112 seamen reported for eight weeks of training duty. Meanwhile, there was a waiting list for pilots and ground officers. When the naval aviation cadet programme, which had opened on 1 July, closed on 25 October 1950, Los Alamitos had obtained a tenth of the cadets recruited in the entire nation. Meanwhile, in answer to President Truman's request for reservists to volunteer for duty during the Korean War, VG-781 requested mobilization as a complete unit, and was accepted – the first squadron in the nation to do so. Three Marine Corps Organized Reserve units were ordered to active duty,


and so was VP-772. To speed up training, on 6 March and again on 16 May 1951 ninety-day trainees reported on board. The third group of trainees came on board for training 16 June and many of them and station personnel helped saved lives and property during heavy rains and floods that damaged the nearby town of Los Alamitos. On 15 January 1952, the first helicopter unit came to the base. Also in 1952, a reserve air intelligence unit came to the base.

For the next decade, operations at Los Alamitos were routine. In 1970, however, the Navy closed the station as a Naval Air Reserve training facility and let it serve merely as a Naval Air Station. In 1972, helicopter elements of both the California Army National Guardand United States Army Reserve moved from leased facilities at commercial airports to NAS Los Alamitos. Following approval of an environmental impact statement filed in August 1973, the base was designated an Armed Forces Reserve Center for which the Navy was designated host, and the California Army National Guard was charged with operating the airfield.

On 23 August 1977, 'ownership' of the base was transferred from the U.S. Navy to the U.S. Army. The U.S. Army 'licensed' the operation of the base to the California Army National Guard. The base was commanded by BG James Benson. Los Alamitos Army Airfield was commanded by LTC James C. Ghormley, III.

S.African ex-union official gunned down on volatile platinum belt

JOHANNESBURG Nov 6 Attackers gunned down a
former senior union official at platinum producer Lonmin
, stoking political and industrial tensions on South
Africa's volatile platinum belt.

Police said the former National Union of Mineworkers (NUM)
shop steward was ambushed outside his home in the mining town of
Mooinooi on Sunday night and died of his injuries on Tuesday.

He was the fourth person in the region with links to the NUM
to have been murdered in the past three months.

The union is a close ally of the ruling African National
Congress. Tens of thousands of NUM members were poached last
year by a new rival, the Association of Mineworkers and
Construction Union (AMCU), in a turf war that killed dozens of
people and sparked widespread industrial unrest.

Lonmin, the world's third largestplatinum producer, was at
its epicentre. Police shot dead 34 striking workers at its
Marikana operation in August 2012, the deadliest security
incident since the end of apartheid.

Industrial action in the mining region northwest of
Johannesburg has been less violent this year but members of both
unions are still being killed and gangland style slayings are a
common feature of the shanty towns that ring the mines.

The killings come as the NUM is trying to lay the groundwork
to retake the platinum belt, a campaign with high political
stakes for the ANC as the party looks to rally support ahead of
general elections due next year.

MILITANCY

In the latest case, Percy Letanang was shot seven times by
unknown assailants. Police were investigating but had made no
arrests yet, police spokesman Thulani Ngubane said.

COSATU, the umbrella union which NUM falls under,


said in a
statement that Letanang had taken a voluntary severance package
recently after Lonmin recognized AMCU as its majority union. A
Lonmin source confirmed this was the case.

"COSATU is outraged by the continuation of what are clearly
deliberate assassinations of NUM members in the area, and the
failure of the police to arrest most of the perpetrators and
bring them to justice," it said.

Three weeks ago, a senior NUM official at Lonmin was also
gunned down in a hail of bullets at Marikana.

Over 7,000 NUM members are currently on strike at mid-tier
platinum producer Northam and its demands of pay hikes
of up to 43 percent signal it is trying compete with AMCU, which
has attracted members with its militancy.the person had a health condition which restricted his or her choice of jobs. A person was limited in the amount of work if he or she was not able to work full-time. Persons with a work disability were further classified as "Prevented from working" or "Not prevented from working."

The term "health condition" referred to both physical and mental conditions. A temporary health problem, such as a broken bone that was expected to heal normally, was not considered a health condition.

The wording of the question on work disability was the same in 1990 as in 1980. Information on work disability was first collected in 1970. In that census, the work disability question did not contain a clause restricting the definition of disability to limitations caused by a health


official measurement of the labor force as revised in January 1967 by the U.S. Department of Labor. The 1970 census was the last to show employment data for persons 14 and 15 years old.

All civilians 16 years old and over who were either (1) "at work"--those who did any work at all during the reference week as paid employees, worked in their own business or profession, worked on their own farm, or worked 15 hours or more as unpaid workers on a family farm or in a family business; or (2) were "with a job but not at work"--those who did not work during the reference week but had jobs or businesses from which they were temporarily absent due to illness, bad weather, industrial dispute, vacation, or othera public or private employment office

Investigating possibilities for starting a professional
practice or opening a business
Placing or answering advertisements

All persons 16 years old and over who are not classified as members of the labor force. This category consists mainly of students, housewives, retired workers, seasonal workers enumerated in an off season who were not looking for work, institutionalized persons, and persons doing only incidental unpaid family work (less than 15 hours during the reference week).

This term appears in connection with several subjects: journey-to work items, class of worker, weeks worked in 1989, and number of workers in family in 1989. Its meaning varies and, therefore, should be determined in each case by referring to the definition of


of unemployment used by the Census Bureau. Persons working only a few hours during the week and persons with a job but not at work are sometimes eligible for unemployment compensation but are classified as "Employed" in the census. Differences in the geographical distribution of unemployment data arise because the place where claims are filed may not necessarily be the same as the place of residence of the unemployed worker.

The figures on employment status from the decennial census are generally comparable with similar data collected in the Current Population Survey. However, some difference may exist because of variations in enumeration and processing techniques.By Q. David Bowers – Co-founder, Stack’s Bowers …… regarding the upcoming Paper Money sale of the Joel R. Anderson Collection Part II.

Part II of the

JOEL R. ANDERSON COLLECTION

Of United States Paper Money

Overview

Welcome to the second offering from the most extensive, most rarity-laden collection of paper money by design types ever formed or presented at auction. The first part, sold by us in March, is now an indelible part of numismatic history.

This collection is the result of many years of careful study, connoisseurship, and patience by Joel R. Anderson. As have the majority of those who have formed great collections of various numismatic specialties, Joel began his interest as a teenager.

As was related in the first catalog, by 1963, working with his older brother Charles, Joel was quite


versed in the basics. In that year in Washington, DC, long-sealed vaults in the Treasury Building were opened. Revealed were thousands of 1,000-coin bags of Morgan and Peace silver dollars dating back to 1878, including key issues and rarities, many from the Carson City Mint. The Andersons were on hand and purchased a large quantity at face value, as did many other collectors and dealers. By March 1965 the coins had been dispersed, except for some Carson City coins held back for later sales.

Behind the scenes the Andersons continued their involvement, eventually adding a line of coin supplies to their other businesses. The Anderson Companies, based in Florence, Alabama, became important in many fields ranging from entertainment to retailing, including as the main supplier of goods to WalMartduring its growth era under Sam Walton. In 2003 Whitman Publishing Company was purchased from St. Martin’s Press. The rest is history. Dynamics came to the forefront, and since that time Whitman has issued over 300 different books on a variety of numismatic subjects. Among other distinctions, it is the official book supplier to members of the American Numismatic Association.

In the meantime, Joel pursued his varied interests in numismatics, forming a great collection of coins by design types and entering the field of paper money, a field that has continued to be a specialty for a long time. He has worked with leading dealers in the field, has attended conventions, and has become deeply involved in other ways. In the publishing realm, his firm greatly supports the numismatic


hobby by producing many coin reference books and by hosting the popular Whitman Coin & Collectibles Expos.

In forming his collection of large-size federal currency Joel Anderson had as an objective obtaining the finest-condition example of every major large-size federal paper money design from the first widely circulated issues of 1861 to the 1920s. In addition, within a given type, major changes of certain other features (such as Treasury Seals) were collected.

By careful study and by reaching to acquire rarities when they became available, he set many price records at auction, including the first million-dollar note. In numismatics, yesterday’s records have a way of becoming today’s bargains over a long period of years, and since then other notes have crossed that barrier.

Each note has been kept with care overthe years, and PCGS Currency has been tapped to certify each piece, providing a basis that is understandable not only to long-term specialists, but to newcomers as well.

Q. David Bowers created narrative and descriptions in the first catalog and in the present one, following a framework laid out by Peter Treglia and other experts, in consultation with Joel. As in our March 2018 offering of Part I, this sale features diverse notes of various series, from popular and affordable (as many types are easily enough obtained) to incredible rarities.

Below are five notes CoinWeek has selected to Highlight with descriptions from the Stack’s Bowers catalog:

1880 $1000 “Black Back” Silver Certificate of Deposit – LOT 2041

Friedberg 346d – PCGS Currency Very Fine 25

A notable highlight from the remarkable Joel R.


Anderson Collection, this 1880 $1000 Silver Certificate is one of just two examples of the type residing in private hands. The printed design elements are boldly presented and strong color remains in the brown and blue overprints. The paper remains bright and creamy white, and displays moderate circulation appropriate for the grade. The grading service mentions minor edge repairs on the back of the holder which are limited in scope.

As the highest denomination of the separate class of Silver Certificates of Deposit, the presently-offered note is a true American treasure.

This rarely seen type features the portrait of William Marcy at left. Marcy, a Massachusetts native, served as a U.S. senator, governor of New York, U.S. Secretary of War and U.S. Secretary of State. As Secretary of State henegotiated the Gadsden Purchase securing southern portions of present-day Arizona and New Mexico for the United States. As on the previous $500, a large brown Treasury Seal is found at top center with a brown denomination counter below. This variety displays the printed signatures of Bruce and Wyman stacked to the bottom right of center. A large counter with 1000 overlapping Roman numeral M is at right. The black printed back design is executed in intricate detail with Roman figures and symbols appearing within the letters of CERTIFICATE at center.

Of the 8,000 Bruce-Wyman 1880 $1000s printed just five are known to survive. Three of these notes are held in institutional collections, one at the Smithsonian and the other two at the Federal Reserve Banks of Chicago and San


of the presently-offered federal $50 denomination were issued.

The $50 notes depict Justice seated with sword and scales at center. At lower left is the portrait of Andrew Jackson, engraved by Charles Burt; ironically the same portrait used on the $1000 Montgomery-issued notes of the Confederate States of America, also printed in early 1861 in New York City by the National Bank Note Company.

To the right is the portrait of Salmon Chase. To the upper left and right are counters with the denomination 50 at the center, and overlapping petals around, the cycloidal configurations (sometimes called a kaleidograph counter in Treasury records), each with “UNITED STATES / FIFTY / TREASURY.” In the lower left signature panel is the signature of Treasury Clerk G. Luff whose handwritten “for the” appearsnote from the second sheet of notes printed and displays the ultra low serial number B7 followed by a decorative star in bold red in the serial number panels. A profile portrait of William Henry Seward is seen at center with a large 50 counter in an ornamental panel at the left end of the note. A red scalloped Treasury Seal is at right and the engraved signatures of Rosecrans and Nebeker are at the lower left and right. The back design is open in keeping with the theme for all of the 1891 Treasury Notes. Denominational counters are found in the corners.

This low serial number note was almost certainly held from circulation as a souvenir by a VIP. The note is well centered with ample margins. The


has always been considered a key to the large size federal type series and there have never been enough available to satisfy collector demand.

About William Seward

The portrait vignette of William Seward at center is quite dramatic as it displays him in full profile. Seward, prominent in Upstate New York politics and in early 1860 a hopeful for the Republican presidential denomination, is well known for his achievements as secretary of state beginning in 1861. Not all of his actions were meritorious, such as the imprisonment of Northern “Copperheads” (suspected Southern sympathizers) without giving them a chance to explain or appeal.

In 1867 he negotiated the deal to purchase the Alaska Territory from Russia, after which the transaction was satirized as Seward’s Folly. He responded to those who questioned thenickname, by which these notes are so well known. The back displays the Heraldic Eagle of the Great Seal of the United States at the center and has ornately engraved borders. The entire back design, engraved by Robert Ponickau, is executed in orange-gold.

This note first appeared in Barney Bluestone’s March 1945 offering of the Albert A. Grinnell Collection, where it was partially described as: “one of the most attractive notes ever issued by our government. The beautiful lathe work comprising the frame design surrounds the rich yellow field in the center of which appears the dignified portrait of Washington. Above center is ’20’ in yellow and below the portrait, the words ‘In Gold Coin’ also printed in rich yellow. The color contrast effects present a picture comparable to


a magnificent painting and must be seen to be fully appreciated. This colorful beauty is an absolutely perfect, Crisp, Unc.”

Bluestone, based in Syracuse, New York, entered the auction business in the 1930s and handled many rarities. His catalogs are so elusive today that the items he handled have never been carefully studied.

Grinnell was a partner in the Grinnell Brothers chain of music stores based in Detroit, each with a showroom of pianos, musical instruments, sheet music, phonographs, radios and other items. Albert was alone in his study and pursuit of federal paper money, without much if any studied competition (Col. E.H.R. Green hoarded paper but did not study it).

A worth successor to Grinnell’s passion was Amon Carter, Sr., followed by his son, Amon Jr.

The “Technicolor” nickname was appliedyears later with it being the name of a film process developed in the 1930s.

Indeed few types in American paper money rival this in terms of aesthetic appeal. The presently offered piece offers an idyllic level of preservation with excellent centering and abundant margins. The colors are vibrant, as should be expected from the first note to roll off of the press. The all important serial number 1s are boldly inked and seen with punch through embossing. This note is a true Gem in every sense of the word, a numismatic treasure, a bona fide trophy note that will be a centerpiece in any collection it enters.

Research tells us that this very note was the presentation piece given to President Theodore Roosevelt by then Secretary of the Treasury


to have originally been issued and redeemed as serial number 78116. Somehow the note escaped the Treasury after redemption and the last digit of the serial number was removed in an attempt to redeem the note again. Furthermore, the name of the payee was removed from the face as well. It appears the Treasury Department caught on to the plot and added the correct serial number in handwritten ink below the right serial number. The note was also punch cancelled multiple times in order to permanently cancel it. An inked inscription on the back of the note states “Writing has evidently been removed from the payee mark on this note SMC June 26/68.” It is likely that the inscription comes from National Currency Bureau head Spencer Clark.

Sarah Grant was returning from shopping with her daughters Monday when she saw armed police officers and was told she couldn't return to her Waterford residence.

Her apartment at 63 Grace St., along with those of surrounding neighbors, had been evacuated during a standoff that lasted from late Monday into early Tuesday when a man holed himself up in the second-floor apartment above Grant's.

"It was extremely scary not to know what was going on in our home," Grant said.

The man, Rashann Hunt, 36, of Cohoes, was later taken into custody with no injuries and charged with burglary, criminal contempt and


menacing with a weapon, all felonies.

The incident stemmed from a Sunday assault.

Authorities said the victim of an assault went to the Waterford Police Department at about 11 p.m. saying Hunt had entered her Grace Street apartment, punched and choked her and pulled her hair while armed with a knife.

Hunt allegedly kept her in the apartment from 1 to 11 p.m., at which time she and her 7-year-old daughter were able to flee.

When police responded, Hunt had already left the apartment, only to return on a motorcycle a few minutes later.

Police tried to stop him and he fled on foot. A Rensselaer County Sheriff's K-9 Unit joined the chase but was unable to locate him.

More Information

On Monday, Keith Francis, Grant's boyfriend, had been home in the apartment below whenthe 7-year-old girl came running down crying and asking for help, said Grant, who is friends with the victim.

Grant had heard arguments before coming from the apartment above.

"Everybody argues, but not like that," she said of the incident.

Hunt currently is involved in an open case in Rensselaer County involving similar charges with the same victim, said Acting District Attorney Arthur Glass Jr. The case is expected to go before a grand jury.

Francis and the 7-year-old called 911 and she told police: "Mommy and Daddy are hurting each other."

Waterford police arrived to find Hunt, who pointed a handgun at them. Officer Craig Fifield dove for cover, breaking his arm and suffering other injuries.

The woman was able to flee with serious injuries, particularly to her face, after being pistol-whipped, police


said. She was taken to Albany Medical Center Hospital and treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

Hunt then barricaded himself inside the apartment.

Francis and the girl were evacuated along with many of the neighbors, and taken to the Waterford Wesleyan Church at 75 Grace St. where they were met by Grant and her daughters.

On Monday night, dozens of residents watched the scene for hours in disbelief as State Police wearing flak jackets and armed with shotguns stood behind porches and along the street.

Cohoes police and the Saratoga County Sheriff's Department also responded to the scene.

Waterford officers were familiar with Hunt, who had been arrested by local police several times in the past, which aided the negotiation process, said Waterford Public Safety Commissioner John Tanchak.Cancer in Australia 2014: actual incidence data from 1982 to 2011 and mortality data from 1982 to 2012 with projections to 2014.

61-year-old had lost all hope after his knee surgery led to an infection

After almost a year of being confined to a bed, 61-year-old Kantilal Nagda was devastated when a consulting doctor told him that his right leg would have to be amputated. His knee had deteriorated due to an infection, barely two years after he underwent a bilateral knee-replacement surgery.

Nagda was diagnosed with arthritis in 2006, and he underwent the surgery in 2011 at a private hospital in Chembur. However, less than a year after the operation, he started noticing pus oozing out of his knee.

All this comes after their marriage had reportedly gone downhill. Meanwhile, there were rumours that Lilian Esoro had reunited with her husband Ubi Franklin after the pair were seen together at a public event.

In December 2016, Lilian Esoro sparked rumours that her marriage was in trouble after she removed the name Franklin from her Instagram bio.

The same month Ubi Franklin was seen without his wedding ring at a public event. Lilian Esoro and Ubi Franklin haveInitiation into Bosnian witchcraft

Hasiba Medinica from Cazinska krajina can be called one of the last representatives of Bosnian witchcraft. She possessed vast magical knowledge, which was unfortunately, lost in great part together with her. She had a long life which ended at the beginning of this century. She didn't have any children, and she died alone. But, she left many true stories and legends behind which made her a controversial figure.

The magical knowledge of Hasiba according to her own reports she inherited from her aunt for whom she said was a very wise woman which was well acquainted with magic. Hasiba discovered her gift for magic accidentally, namely, she managed to heal the neighbours cow which had a large warts on her udder. The cow refused to be


milked. Hasibe offered to help which the neighbours accepted. Using a string of hair from a horse's tail she tied the warts while uttering a magical formula. Tomorrow morning the neighbour came to tell her the good news - the warts disappeared overnight?!

Even though that wasn't her first magic ritual, Hasiba presented it as such because she didn't want to reveal her initiation into witchcraft. She was an exceptional expert in love magic which she used to help numerous women, for a fee, to calm the tensions in marriage, eliminate competitors, or to separate a husband and a wife. She also helped girls seduce a certain man and to marry him. She used her magical knowledge in her private life in order to be more dominant in thehousehold and marriage.

According to stories of her neighbour Ajša one time when she was visiting Hasiba, Hasiba and her lover, which she managed to separate from his wife and children, started a heated argument with a lot of insults and threats. The fight resulted in the lover leaving the house demonstratively threatening her that their life together is over and that they will never get back together. He will go home to his wife and children. After she closed the door behind him furiously, she walked back into the room surprisingly calm. Her neighbour felt unpleasant since it all took place in front of her, but what happened next caused an even greater surprise.

He will be forced back, you will see! - as soon as she uttered those


words she took her panties off in front of her neighbour, she slipped through a broom that she used to clean the room three times between her legs and turned it over three times uttering a magical formula. After that she turned the broom upside down and threw her panties on top of the broom. Then she drew with her index finger a circle on the floor of the room constantly uttering a magical formula. That entire ritual lasted for ten minutes. After that Hasibe put on a new pair of panties and calmly sat next to her neighbour continuing to drink coffee. After some twenty minutes a loud knocking was heard and a quiet pleading voice of her lover continuously repeated : "Hasiba, please open the door!"

Hearingthat Hasiba laughed loudly, defiant and full of herself, she told the neighbour: "Let him wait, let him wait in front of the door!", she continued to drink her coffee calmly. After a few minutes she stood up, and approached the door and told him that she was hurt by his words that he uttered during the fight, and she refused to open the door for him.

A few days later, Hasibe answered her neighbour's question why her lover was sweaty and of heavy breath by telling her that ritual Djin made him come back to her running. That's why his face was all red and full of sweat. - If I didn't open the door for him it might have ended badly, he could have been mentally retarded


or he might have had a stroke.

According to story of other neighbours, the first year of her life Hasiba used to disturb and invoke Djin with her mystical rituals which she conducted naked visiting the local graveyards, forests and all those places that are known for their magical power. In the next years, until her death, the Djin disturbed her tormenting her with insomnia every night. While all slept peacefully she would light candles in her home, she would walk up and down nervous, restless, always moody and full of evil. During midnight she would open all of her windows, and under candlelight she would appear naked performing some of her rituals, which she did for some local women. She was proud of the fact that she couldfocuses on Player vs Player combat. Unlike classic RTS games the RTS element is applied to army movement, espionage, diplomacy and estate improvement and not tactical troop movements and resource gathering. You might say that the game style is closer to computer games like Civilization, Heroes of Might and Magic and board games like Stratego and Junta than RTS games like Command and Conquer or Warcraft.

The gaming sessions in the release version of the game consist of two distinct types.

That includes such things as having the most underground headquarters, the most trade routes, the largest navy, destroying most dungeons etc. There are also plenty of opportunities to improve your family and customize your heroes as they gain experience, new abilities, magic laws and enchanted items.

There are 6 classic fantasy races that all hold influence in the Imperial Council. This includes the human Anglian and Sahel cultures. The Elves, Dwarves, Gnomes and Goblinoids. The players will be able to pick race specific house names and hero names from auto generated lists. The main differences of the races are the available elite troops. A noble house may include families of differentraces.

Classes

All families of a noble house have a heritage. When a family has gained a certain amount of victory points the player may select one of 10 heritages for the family. These heritages span from Crime Lords, Diplomats and Merchants to Technicians and Mystics. The heritage determines how well a family can perform in most aspects of the game. The family heroes are capable of moving armies, extorting taxes from the peasants, fighting in battles and using magic. All heroes have professions ranging from barbarians, wizards and priests to tacticians and assassins.


Early in the 20th century, a strange tomato plant took root in the northeastern United States. Because of a random genetic mutation, the plant’s branches were shorter than normal. The result was a more compact crop that was easier to harvest. “Breeders started using it,” says Joyce Van Eck, a plant biologist with Boyce Thompson Institute in New York. “Over time, the trait revolutionized commercial tomato production.”

Most other qualities we associate with tomatoes also arose by chance. Over millennia of selective breeding, the fruit grew from the size of a pea to that of an apple, and ripening was streamlined to ensure supermarket tomatoes were uniformly red. The farmers who had laid claim to these desirable traits inadvertently lost others, such as flavor, nutritional value and drought resistancework performed by local agencies and smoothing over any possible difficulties along the trip.

Introduction:

Sunday had been a quiet day for Lee, after the time he spent with Stacey on Friday morning he had not had sex with any of his sisters all weekend.

It was now Monday. Kim and Stephanie were at University and would be until late, Marie and all his other sisters except April were at work, leaving just the two alone in the house.

"Hi Lee" a chirpy April greeted her brother as he made his way into the kitchen, for some reason she had, had a spring in her step for the past few days.

"You’re happy what’s going on?" Lee gave his sister a hug as she greeted him with a kiss.

"Oh nothing to concern you" she smiled as her brothers jeans rubbed her exposed legs.

"What’s with thethey don't want' April thought as she went into the garden 'Why did he have to be my brother I'd have married him in a heartbeat if he wasn't'.

Lee grabbed his bowl from the cupboard filling it with cereal and milk he took it into the living room to eat.

April appeared from the garden her red hair taking on a bright gleam from the sun that shone through it. Lee almost chocked on his breakfast as he saw this beauty walk in to the room.

"Not going to the gym?" Lee finally managed to choke out after his cough had subsided slightly.

"No, thought I'd have a day off today didn't really fancy it" April said as she sat next to her brother "Thought I'd stay here with you unless


you’re going running that is?"

Lee shook his head his mouth too full to speak. He had planned on going but that had changed now that April wanted to stay her with him.

"So it’s just the two of us then its nice don't you think?" April crossed her legs giving Lee a great sight of her thigh as the shorts she was wearing rode up on the soft elegant legs. She had turned her body towards him, her massive breast nearly touching his arm; she gently lay with the front part of his hair rolling her finger through it like a pair of young lovers may have done in the seventies. Her eyes fixed on his face taking in every little movement his jaw made as he chewed themouthful of cereal before swallowing.

"Yeah it is nice" Lee squeaked out as he swallowed, smiling at his sister as she lay with his hair so lovingly.

"Oh if it could only be the two of us all the time imagine that, it would be so great wouldn't it?" April sighed as she thought about what life would have been like if they were not related.

"It would be perfect, we could sleep in late together, not worry about the others finding us, just you and me" Lee could see it in his mind a perfect picture was formed of what life would have been like.

"Its a pity life isn't fair isn't it?" April said as she moved closer to her brother, her breath touching his neck as she snuggled down


into his side.

"Yeah it is" Lee said quietly as he put his head on the top of his sisters, both gazing off into space.

April woke alone on the sofa. She didn't realize it at first but she had fallen asleep snuggled with her brother. Looking at the clock she saw she'd been asleep for some time, it was now 2: 00 PM. rubbing her eyes and letting them adjust to the bright sun, she got up and went looking for her brother.

Lee was in his room. He had carefully slipped away without letting April wake up from her peaceful sleep. She looked so at rest when he left her, her eyes lightly closed even though she was in a deep sleep. She looked so innocent laying with herhead on Lee's chest listening to his steady heartbeat and seeming to breathe along to it. Lee needed time alone to think, that’s why he had left her on the sofa and gone to his room. It was the way his sister had spoken about what life would have been like if it was just the two of them that had set something off in his mind. He had spent the past few hours thinking about it.

April found Lee sat on his bed looking out of his window into the bright sunlight that shone back onto him.

"You ok?" she asked as she moved to sit next to her brother who was deep in thought.

"Oh me sure" Lee hadn't really seen April come into his room, the first time


word he went back to looking out of the window, like he wanted to say something but just couldn't find the right words.

April sat with her brother, holding his hand still to her legs, she felt the little tremble in his hand, a nervous tremble, she held it tighter once more, bringing it to her face she kissed the back of it so softly it would hardly register as a kiss.

"You can tell me anything you know that don't you?" April assured her brother as she rubbed his hand softly with her other. Lee just nodded, he knew that he could but he just couldn't seem to tell his sister what he was thinking right then. April didn't push him she just sat there on his bed withhim watching the world go past before them.

April and Lee had been sat on his bed for some time before either of them moved, they had just been sat in the same position, April holding her brothers hand as he looked out of the window.

"I better go Lee, you gonna be ok?" April asked as she let go of her brother’s hand.

"Sure" Lee didn't look at his sister when he answered her question. April just walked out of the room leaving her brother deep in thought, she had never seen him like this before and was starting to worry that something was wrong; she knew that only time would tell what it was.

April was in the garden when Lee finally emerged from his room. He looked troubled as


was a good thing that neither suffered from Hay fever or it could have become really messy in this situation.

April broke the kiss, still holding her brother she hugged him again still overcome by emotion, never knowing that three little words could change life so radically.

"Let’s go inside Lee,” she said in a quiet, husky voice as she brought her mouth to her brother’s ear. Lee was only able to nod his agreement.

Once inside they went into the kitchen, April leading her brother by the hand, she let go and turned to face him when they got to the table. Smiling she grabbed the bottom of her t-shirt pulling it over her head she dropped it to the floor, revealing a white lace bra struggling to hold backher massive breasts, that were wanting to get free and into the hands of her brother.

Lee watched as she wiggled the shorts off her slender waist, the feel of the cotton thrilling her legs as it slid down the exposed skin. April now sat on the table, clad only in matching lace bra and knickers.

Unable to hold off anymore Lee moved in-between the legs of his sister, she brought them to each side of him, dangling them off the table she looked up into his face. No words were spoken or needed; Lee just brought his hands onto the sides of his sisters bra covered breasts holding the weight of each in his hands. April sighed as she felt his warm hands on the thin material that covered


her sensitive flesh beneath.

Lee watched as April grabbed his t-shirt at the bottom just like she had hers pulling it up until he had to move his hands off her breasts to get it off fully, it was a strange feeling but she was actually disappointed when his hands were removed from her breasts. Lee's hands were soon back, as he held her he brought his mouth to hers sharing a tentative kiss as he began to massage the sides of her breasts.

April's knickers were getting a visible wet patch on them as her brother continued his steady massaging of her breasts. She knew it was time to move things along this was so nice but it wasn't going to be the end just the beginning. April grabbedher brother belt attempting to undo it but her hands couldn't get a proper grip, Lee felt her struggle and helped out, stepping back he pulled the belt open, dropping it to the floor before stepping back to his sister, her legs now pulled up resting her feet on the table, she kissed Lee again.

Lee pressed into her slightly as he got closer but April moved him back, turning over she knelt on the table, her knickers going up her ass revealing both perfectly formed cheeks to her brother. Looking back April smiled as she felt her brothers hands grab softly at each side holding her as she arched her back when she felt his lips kiss the soft flesh of each cheek right in the center. She


closed her eyes as she felt the hot breath of her brother oh each of her perfect orbs, his soft lips leaving a little wet kiss mark wherever they gently touched.

April kneeled up her ass going down into her legs that were bent beneath it, she rubbed her breasts through the bra that confined them, feeling the nipples poking at it, she moaned as she felt the tingle of both as they were touched by the lace material, hardening them slightly more each time.

Leaning back even more she was caught by her brother, wrapping his arms around her breasts he felt for the clasp that held it in place. April felt her brother’s hands on her breasts feeling for the clasp, she reached back holding his head inher hands as she pressed her back into his chest, feeling his wet lips on her knack she wished he would find the clasp soon and release her aching breasts.

She wasn't disappointed as her brother undid the clasp, she brought her arms back so he could slide it off her back, the thin straps that held it on her shoulders snagging a little on her elbows but that was soon overcome and it was dropped to the floor. Next was her knickers squatting she let Lee slide his hands into the waistband and slide them down to her knees from where she took over and with some great skill managed to pull them off, she knelt once more and fleet her brothers chest touch her back his hands


now softly caressing her bare naked breasts, sending little thrills through her body like little electric shocks.

April turned to face her brother smiling as she saw his eyes fixed on hers not straying to her naked pussy or breasts just looking into her face. Leaning forwards she placed her legs on either side of his body once more her feet dangled off the end of the table hanging in the air as she softly kissed her brother again.

While their faces were pushed together she reached down and undid his jeans letting them drop off his hips. Lee stepped out of the fallen jeans, now only in his boxer shorts he stood kissing his sister, so far nothing they had done had been hurried this wasn't just a fast,hard fuck, this was something special this was going to be the time they really showed their love for each other.

April stopped kissing her brother and looked at the bulge that was making a tent in the front of his boxers. Smiling she opened the button to the hole where you pee through and reached inside, taking hold of her brothers hard cock she gently pulled back his foreskin and took his cock out through the hole in the front of his boxer shorts. Smiling as the purple head came into view she laid back on the table pulling Lee close to herself she guided it to the entrance and placed the tip in-between her warm, wet, ready lips.

Lee looked into the eyes of his sister as he


ever so slowly eased himself into her opening pussy; neither saying a word just looking at each other as his cock slowly went into her making them for that moment one.

April smiled as she felt herself filled fully by her brother, he could go no deeper, and he didn't need to. Both just stayed still looking at each other for a few moments, before April placed her hands on her brother’s face bringing his face to hers, they shared a kiss, softly Lee let his hips slid back. The feel of his sister’s tight pussy walls holding him, never wanting him to pull out made the task almost heart breaking but he knew it had to be done. April groaned as she felt him equally softly push backinto her his, cock being held tight by her muscles, her juices making him wet and giving him a little better chance to move, April wished she could just turn the wetness off and hold her brother inside herself forever but that wasn't possible and she knew she couldn't fight nature she could only enjoy what it provided.

April gently wrapped her legs around her brother’s waist as they kissed slowly their tongues in no hurry, there was no rush, they were fully enjoying each other for the first time.

Lee slid back a little faster this time the wetness provided by his sister making it harder to control the speed in which moved inside of her. April moaned as she felt his pubic hair touch hers, their sweat covered


more pleasurable. April let go of his waist with her legs and brought them up onto the table once more, allowing more room for Lee to move. Lee almost losing his grip on the edge of the table as he felt his sister move quickly pushed his hands further up the table, in the process he caught his sisters right leg just behind the knee, forcing it up with his arm, April let it go loose allowing it to be pushed up to her chest, it finally resting on her right breast as Lee fell forwards April kissed him, her right leg now held over his shoulder. This new position opened April up even more then she thought possible and with all the working out she did itwas no problem holding herself in that position for a while.

Lee continued his kissing with April as he held her leg over his shoulder, her other still just on the table. Lee began once more thrusting softly into his sister, this time with more room to move he could go deeper, making April moan out as she felt his pubic bone his her clit the sensation of this combined with the slow, steady, movements of her brothers cock in her soaked pussy brought her to a steady orgasm. Breaking the kiss she shook her head as her orgasm flowed throughout her body making her pussy even wetter.

Lee let go of her leg letting it fall back down to the table as her orgasm subsided and they went back


to kissing tenderly. With all the strength he could muster Lee picked his sister off the table, relishing what he was doing April wrapped her legs around him again for support as Lee moved away from the table, holding his sister in the air he let her start to move over his cock, her breasts were pressed into his chest and he could feel her heartbeat faster through the firm mounds of flesh. April felt the same thing through his chest and tried to match it with her steady lifts and falls on his cock, still both were not rushing every stroke was deliberate and slow taking both higher then ever before.

The pair began kissing as Lee held his sister, his hands holding just under her ass tohelp her lift on his cock, the feel of his fingers so close to her sensitive hole making her squirm with delight.

Lee felt his legs grow weak and so squatted slowly down, letting April put her feet on the floor resting on his bent legs she was now able to get a good rhythm going pulling back until only the head of her brothers cock was in then back out with slow slides of her hips. Lee looked into his sister’s eyes as she leaned back and moaned out as she felt his legs touch the sensitive inner parts of her thighs right up under her pussy. Lee held her waist so she didn't fall off him as she brought her hands up to her breasts inching the


nipples as she felt another orgasm build and burst inside herself, the sweat now starting to fall off their bodies not just make a slick sheen.

This second orgasm from his sister sent Lee flashing to his, April looked back at him as he felt his balls pump their load to the base of his shaft, April could tell what was coming and smiled as she gave one last moan and thrust holding onto her brothers sweaty body tight as she felt his cum hit the walls of her pussy, the heat that they had generated was excaudate by a thousand times as she felt, his cock begin to shrink they just looked into each others eyes.

"I love you" April said with a soft smile as she felt herbrother fall from her tight confines.

"I love you too April" Lee said as he hugged his sister, both stood, naked and dripping sweat.

Lee looked at his sister as they both stood in the kitchen the light from the window fading as the sun moved around the sky.

"April"

"Yeah"

"What you said earlier, about us living together, alone I mean, did you mean it?"

"Yes"

"I'd love to"

Lee hugged his sister as they both sobbed tears of happiness. They didn't know how everything was going to happen from now on, how they'd get a house, pay the bills or how their family would react, but they did know one thing as long as they had each other they had all they would ever need in this life or in heaven.

Teenager Mark Lloyd added his name alongside the established list of former champions after claiming the 2019 edition of the West of England Snooker Open.

Soon to be celebrating their 15th year anniversary, the West of England Billiards and Snooker Foundation (WEBSF) cut the ribbon for the new 2019/20 tournament season at familiar tour venue Jesters Snooker Hall. A total of 32 players from across the south-west of England and beyond made the trip to Swindon, all vying for the prestigious title and a slice of an £800 prize fund that consisted of 100% of entry fees.

The Groups

Lloyd, from Gosport, qualified top of Group D with six wins from seven, constructing breaks of 71, 58, 63, 60 and 98 in the process. Joining him in the knockout roundsfrom the same group was second-placed Martin Pitcher who ousted last year’s runner-up James Height into third courtesy of a better frame difference by just one.

Since the tournament’s rebirth in 2013 under the WEBSF banner, no player has won the title twice, yet alone defend it. 2018 champion Ryan Mears put up a spirited performance attempting to alter both those facts throughout the day. The Aldershot cueist finished first in a tight Group B with James Lee acquiring the other qualifying place, both just one win ahead of hot-prospect Liam Davies from Wales and Andy Symons.

Ben Hancorn made no mistake in Group A as he progressed with a 100% record – registering an effort of 105 along the way – whilst Lee McArthur advanced in second with just


no such requirement for all three frames in the bottom half of the draw, though, as defending champion Mears (49 break) saw off Benzey 2-0 and Lloyd (54 break) ended the hopes of McArthur. The fast route to victory was also taken in the semi-finals as Lee and Lloyd denied both Hancorn and Mears, respectively, 2-0.

In a predictably close final affair, current English Under-21 champion Lloyd secured the opener before Lee forced a decider. The 19-year-old responded by starting the third frame positively with a break of 52, and although Lee created himself a counter-attacking opportunity, a subsequent miss was the beginning of the end as Lloyd completed his triumph, some 14 hours after the first cue ball was struck.

In the West of England Snooker Open Plate eventfor those who finished third or fourth in their groups, Anthony Rice collected the prize money when he denied the talented Davies in the final on the colours.

WEBSF Tournament Director Steve Canniford said “It has been a long day but worth the effort to facilitate a tournament where amateur snooker players from around the region compete in a competitive but friendly atmosphere. A great way to start the season and celebrate 15 years of volunteering with the WEBSF”

Adverse drug reactions are a major health problem in the United States. About 25% of all adverse drug reactions have an allergic, pseudoallergic, or idiosyncratic/intolerant basis. Idiosyncratic drug reactions and drug intolerance are also included in this category. Drug allergy may be classified by the Gell and Coombs classification of human hypersensitivity (Type 1: IgE-mediated; Type 2: cytotoxic; Type 3: immune complex; and Type 4: cellular immune mediated). Drug allergy is also frequently characterized by the predominant tissue/organ involved (systemic, cutaneous, or visceral). To some extent, the

Following the talk I continued to discuss financial reforms and technology with Daniel C. Dennett, who is an external professor at SFI. While known as an author and philosopher, Professor Dennett is also Co-Director of the Center for Cognitive Studies at Tufts University with extensive published works in CS and AI. Professor Dennett shared a personal case that provides historical and perhaps futuristic context involving a well-known computer scientist at a leading lab during the commercialization era of the World Wide Web. The scientist was apparently concerned with the potential negative impact on authors given the exponentially increasing mass of content, and I suspect also feared the network effect in certain types of consumer services that quickly result


in the same role at George Mason University. His view as I recall was that the reforms necessary in education were unlikely to come from within, and would require external disruptive competition. Regardless of role at the time, my experience has been similar. A majority of cultures fiercely resist change, typically agreeing only to reforms that benefit the interests of narrow groups with little concern for collective impact or macro needs. Yet society often looks to entrenched institutions for expertise, leadership, and decision power, despite obvious conflicts of interest, thus creating quite a dilemma for serious thinkers and doers. As structural barriers grow over time it becomes almost impossible to introduce new technology and systems regardless of need or merit. Any such scenario is directly opposed to properhave followed for 15 years or so off and on, consuming much of what is made publicly available.

The model is a very small core supported by external faculty around the world, and an independent institute that intentionally explores areas that are overlooked by academia, which tends to herd towards trendy science. So SFI is neither conventional nor large and bureaucratic– for that reason alone they attract many of the world’s leading scientists. Most of the big contributions to science, including Darwin, were largely outcasts of the academic mainstream at the time.

The interdisciplinary focus allows researchers to learn from each other and work together on many of the really big problems facing the planet, often temporarily so that they maintain their long-term job — usually at a major university.
