The former independent senator — who replaced Jacqui Lambie earlier this year — flagged his opposition to higher education reforms in his first speech.

"Some would say I'd be crossing the floor against my party; however, I see it as staying true to my word," Martin said.

Martin reasoned that the lower threshold would stop prospective students from undertaking tertiary education, especially in Tasmania.

"Students are one of Australia's most precious resources and we should invest in them," he said.

But Martin's dissent wasn't enough to defeat the bill, as the government had secured the eight crossbench votes required to pass the legislation, including Cory Bernardi, Brian Burston, Centre Alliance's Stirling Griff and Rex Patrick, One Nation's Pauline Hanson and Peter Georgiou, David Leyonhjelm, and Tim Storer.

A chorus of Democratic lawmakers have joined the education secretary, Betsy DeVos, in calling for Congress to act after a gunman killed 17 people at a high school in Parkland, Fla.

In a letter on Friday, all 17 Democrats on the House Education Committee urged Representative Virginia Foxx, the committee’s chairwoman, to convene hearings on school shootings, describing them as a “public health epidemic.” The panel has not addressed the issue since February 2013 — two months after a shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut left 20 first graders and six adults dead, they said.

“Wednesday’s preventable tragedy at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, resulted in the deaths of at least 17 students and faculty,” the letter said. “Sadly, since the mass shooting at Sandythis year, W.

Lee Evans helped Bradford City reach the League One play-offs during a loan spell in 2015-16

Wolves midfielder Lee Evans has signed a new three-and-a-half year contract, keeping him at Molineux until 2020.

Evans, 22, who spent the 2015-16 campaign on loan with League One side Bradford City, has made 59 Wolves appearances since signing his first professional deal in January 2013.

"It's a big weight off my mind," said the Wales Under-21 international.

"We've been talking about it now for a couple of months. Now I can focus on the rest of the season."

Wolves head coach Paul Lambert said: "He's very similar to Jack Price and they've both done brilliantly well since I've been here.

"His performances against Stoke and Liverpool in the FA Cup emphasisedbrought him, "What's Going On." When Berry Gordy decided not to issue the single, deeming it uncommercial, Gaye refused to record any more material until he relented. Confirmed by its tremendous commercial success in January 1971, he recorded the rest of the album over ten days in March, and Motown released it in late May. Besides cementing Marvin Gaye as one of the most important artists in pop music, What's Going On was far and away the best full-length to issue from the singles-dominated Motown factory, and arguably the best soul album of all time.

Conceived as a statement from the viewpoint of a Vietnam veteran (Gaye's brother Frankie had returned from a three-year hitch in 1967), What's Going On isn't just the question of a baffled soldier returning


home to a strange place, but a promise that listeners would be informed by what they heard (that missing question mark in the title certainly wasn't a typo). Instead of releasing listeners from their troubles, as so many of his singles had in the past, Gaye used the album to reflect on the climate of the early '70s, rife with civil unrest, drug abuse, abandoned children, and the spectre of riots in the near past. Alternately depressed and hopeful, angry and jubilant, Gaye saved the most sublime, deeply inspired performances of his career for "Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)," "Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)," and "Save the Children." The songs and performances, however, furnished only half of a revolution; little could've been accomplished with the Motownsound of previous Marvin Gaye hits like "Stubborn Kind of Fellow" and "Hitch Hike" or even "I Heard It Through the Grapevine." What's Going On, as he conceived and produced it, was like no other record heard before it: languid, dark, and jazzy, a series of relaxed grooves with a heavy bottom, filled by thick basslines along with bongos, conga, and other percussion. Fortunately, this aesthetic fit in perfectly with the style of longtime Motown session men like bassist James Jamerson and guitarist Joe Messina. When the Funk Brothers were, for once, allowed the opportunity to work in relaxed, open proceedings, they produced the best work of their careers (and indeed, they recognized its importance before any of the Motown executives). Bob Babbitt's playing on "Inner City Blues


in 19 of the Blueshirts’ first 32 games, and in 11 of the last 14 contests.

Assuming the 2012 -2013 season was a full 82 games, and Stepan’s 0.78 points per game pace through 32 games held up for a full campaign, the center would total 64 points. Not a bad follow up to the 45 and 51 points he registered in each of his first two seasons, respectively.

Although the Rangers’ second-round pick in 2008 deserves the majority of the credit for his success this year, he is quick to share the acclaim. While Stepan has played with a number of linemates this year, the center deflects the attention to two of his wingers — Nash and Carl Hagelin — for his offensive prowess this season.

Woman and seven-year-old boy were wounded in the legs at their Salford home in 2015

Three men are facing long jail sentences over a botched gangland hit in which a seven-year-old boy and his mother were shot on their doorstep.

Christian Hickey Jr and his mother, Jayne, were blasted in the legs with a pistol as they answered the door to their house in Winton, Salford.

The schoolboy and his mother were at home with the youngster’s father, Chris Hickey Sr, watching football when they heard a knock on the window shortly before 9.25pm on 12 October 2015.

“It’s the postman mummy,” said the seven-year-old, as he and his mother went to answer the door. A man standingat the end of the drive shouted: “Is your husband in?”, to which Jayne Hickey replied “one sec”, and then heard the man say something like “nah nah”, jurors were told.

A gunman then appeared from the shadows and opened fire. He continued shooting even as Hickey slammed the door, seriously injuring both mother and son.

They were the victims of a bungled hit. The real target was her husband and the attack was retribution for the murder of Paul Massey, the one-time Salford crime boss who was shot with an Uzi submachine gun outside his home three months earlier.

Hickey Sr was a friend of the alleged gang leader Michael Carroll, who had been part of a group known as the A-Team before a deadly feud split the gang into


rival camps. The split, believed to trace back to 2014, triggered a series of gun, grenade and machete attacks on the streets of Salford in a quarrel that continues to this day.

A-Team graffiti remains on walls and apartment blocks in the Irlam area, three miles north-west of Manchester city centre, and during the trial shots were fired through the front door of a home in Salford in an attack linked to the warring gangs.

The jury on Thursday convicted six alleged members of the A-Team for their involvement in the shooting of the Hickeys after a two-month trial.

Carne Thomasson, 28, Christopher Hall, 49, and Aldaire Warmington, 32, were each cleared of a count of conspiracy to murder but were convicted of conspiracy to commit grievous bodily harm with intent,Oscar J. Swanson ("Swanson") was born in 1917, and has been a pipefitter and welder for some fifty years. He is a participant in U.A. Local 13 Pension Plan ("the Plan"). In April 1986 he went to the office of defendant Gary Romano ("Romano"), the plan administrator, in order to talk about Swanson's "employment options." Swanson claimed that at the time of his visit he was upset and agitated because he had just had an argument with one of his supervisors.
Romano explained to Swanson that he could retire and either receive full benefits for himself in a monthly payment or receive a reduced monthly benefit, with a death benefit for a designated beneficiary.
According to Swanson, Romano "encouraged" him to sign the retirement papers at that first meeting. Swanson


Plan so as not to jeopardize his monthly benefit payment.
At some point, after the Trustees had approved Swanson's retirement application, Swanson claims that he notified defendants that he no longer wished to be considered retired. Neither the complaint nor Swanson's papers in opposition to the summary judgment motion state precisely when this occurred.
The office manager in Romano's office states in an affidavit that Swanson appeared in the office in either December 1986 or January 1987 complaining that he was not told certain information and at that time Swanson ripped up several of his retirement checks.
It is not disputed that Swanson's first written notification to the trustees of the Plan that he intended to return to work full time was contained in a letter dated January 22, 1987 whichMaterial Facts in Dispute p. 2.
In Count IV, Swanson alleges that he has not retired under the terms of the Plan because he did not "withdraw completely from employment in the industry ..." In part, Swanson's interpretation of the Plan in this regard is based on his contention that the Plan is unclear regarding the calculation of benefits, and that its terms should therefore be construed against defendants.
In addition, Swanson maintains that he constructively withdrew his request to retire by accepting employment after he signed the papers but before the Trustees approved his application. Plaintiff also claims that under the Plan, he could "withdraw" his retirement application even following Trustee approval in the event of his "reemployment in the industry," which he claims occurred in his case.
In response,


work in the industry ..." However, the Plan description in fact is far clearer than plaintiff contends. The summary informed Swanson that to receive a pension, he was required to fill out an application, which he did. Any doubt that receipt of a pension implied retirement was removed by the summary's frequent references to pension benefits "for retirement" and "retiring on a pension." See, e.g., Plan Summary at pp. 10-12, 21, 25, 33. The documents signed by Swanson also expressly stated that he intended "to officially retire" on May 1, 1986. See Defendants' Ex. "D". Thus, plaintiff clearly knew that he was applying for benefits to commence upon his retirement in May.
The Plan Summary also explained that if Swanson changed his mind about retiring, he could withdraw hisCommercial director Henry Hobson will helm the film, and production will start in the fall.

8, 1998, at approximately 11:45 p.m., Whitehead attempted to enter the United States from Mexico at the Calexico, California Port of Entry. He drove a red 1988 Hyundai Excel to the border, and his 17-year-old brother Jason was his only passenger. Whitehead responded to questions from government officials at primary inspection and again at secondary inspection; however, after he was placed in custody, and before he received warnings pursuant to Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 (1966), Whitehead remained silent.

3
As Whitehead drove up to primary inspection, INS Inspector Sean Hildenbrand noticed that "there was nothing in [Whitehead's car]. There was no clothing, soda can, et cetera. There wasn't any garbage or anything laying in the vehicle." When Whitehead complied with a request that he open the car's trunk,Inspector Hildenbrand discovered that it too was empty. Inspector Hildenbrand found it unusual that both the interior and trunk of Whitehead's vehicle were empty. Moreover, Whitehead appeared nervous, and when asked, Whitehead stated that he did not know who owned the Hyundai. Based on these factors, Inspector Hildenbrand referred Whitehead to the secondary inspection lot.

4
At secondary inspection, a narcotics-detector dog screened Whitehead's car and alerted to the rear of the vehicle. United States Customs Service Inspector Robert Garcia and another official then escorted Whitehead and his brother to the secondary office, placing the two in custody for the purposes of Miranda1.  Onceinside the office, Inspector Garcia frisked Whitehead and searched his wallet and shoes, but he did not find anything unusual. During this time, Whitehead did not


speak.

5
Inspector Garcia next searched the Hyundai. Underneath the rear bumper, he found several brick-shaped packages wrapped in cellophane, and inside these packages, he discovered a green, leafy substance that field-tested positive for marijuana. Inspector Garcia immediately returned to the secondary office, had Whitehead and his brother remove their shoes and belts, and placed the two men in separate holding cells. Whitehead continued to remain silent.

6
Inspector Garcia then completed his search of Whitehead's vehicle, finding fifteen cellophane-wrapped packages concealed in the front and rear bumpers and rear doors. These packages contained 54.85 pounds of marijuana.

7
On July 8, 1988, the United States filed a two-count indictment against Whitehead in the Southern District of California. Count One charged importation of marijuana, in violation of 21 U.S.C. SS 952, 960. Count TwoA Winnipeg woman is worried she may lose the sight in one of her eyes after she says she was punched in the face by a stranger.

Brittney Thomas-Ljungberg, 28, says the attack happened Sunday in Winnipeg’s Exchange District. She and her boyfriend, Mike Fox, were on their way to meet friends for lunch in Chinatown when she says a man punched her in the face, for no reason.

“This fellow walked by and it happened very quick,” Fox told CTV Winnipeg.

"At that point, I ran towards him. He kind of paused, looked a little bewildered and then took off.”

Fox briefly chased after the attacker before deciding to turn back to help Thomas-Ljungberg.

The answer is the state of the Chinese market, the policy choices of Chinese financial institutions, and the decisions of the Chinese government.

Those decisions have an extraordinary ripple effect across the world. What is true in economics is also true in politics and military affairs. More than 100 Chinese ships, including nuclear submarines, last month churned through the waters of the South China Sea, firing off missiles and guns and generally behaving as if there was a war on. Planes zoomed overhead. The Chinese did this in an ocean area they had unilaterally designated as off limits to foreign ships, and they did it immediately before a meeting of foreign ministers of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations in Kuala Lumpur.

facial nerve was exposed through a preauricular skin incision. The main trunk of the facial nerve was dissected from the stylomastoid foramen. A microscope was used to dissect the terminal branches to the periphery and observe them. The course and distribution were examined for all terminal branches of the facial nerve. However, focus was placed on the course and distribution of the zygomatic branch, buccal branch, and mandibular branch to the orbicularis oculi muscle and orbicularis oris muscle. The temporal branch was distributed to the orbicularis oculi muscle in all cases and the marginal mandibular branch was distributed to the orbicularis oris muscle in all cases. The zygomatic branch was distributed to the orbicularis oculi muscle in all cases, but it was also distributed to the orbicularis orishis rather confrontational and controversial stance on one issue very relevant here, his position being succinctly summed up in one of his own titles, Waterloo The German Victory - and his (Simms, that is) choice to call his last chapter 'Legacy: a 'German Victory'?' might appear to strengthen this apparent link.

I'm part way through reading the above-mentioned Hofschröer title, so my verdict isn't in on that just yet. But I have to say I really loved his book Wellington's Smallest Victory, which tells the fascinating story of Capt. Siborne's travails in the course of building his famous Waterloo diorama.

La Haye Sainte as pictured on a postcard about a century after the battle.

Actually, although Simms addresses a few areas that have been seen by some interested in Waterloo as


La Haye Sainte, a key feature of the battle of Waterloo. The buildings that comprise La Haye Sainte are described thus on Wikipedia: 'a walled farmhouse compound at the foot of an escarpment on the Charleroi-Brussels road'.

One of several key forward positions in Wellington's defensive line, situated centrally between the other two exposed bastions of Hougoumont and Papelotte, it proved to be a small but crucial stronghold in this most famous of battles, absorbing Napoleon's troops in a manner he'd hoped and planned to avoid. Simms' sources are diverse, and woven well into his account, and his writing style is obviously erudite, but also fluent and easy. He certainly isn't stuffily over-academic; it's not often you see a book by a Cambridge academic on Waterloo quoting Abba undera chapter heading!

A nice C19th print: Centre of The British Army, at La Haye Sainte.

Another populist reference - and I'm not someone who needs or even wants my history leavened with such things, unless they're pertinent, as they are here - is to the Waterloo episode of the TV series Sharpe, which he notes because it features La Haye Sainte heavily, even portraying Major Baring, who comes as close to a hero as you'll find in Simms' account.

Sergei Bondarchuk's incredible Waterloo movie also depicts some of the action involving La Haye Sainte. In this epic film, although it isn't so central to the film's action as it is in Sharpe's Waterloo, it's certainly portrayed as central to the battle, a fact made abundantly clear when Rod Steiger as


full below.

Chapters are, like the book as a whole, short and easy to read, and remain engaging and informative throughout. The action unfolds chronologically, after a bit of scene-setting concerning the role of Germanic elements in British armies of the era in general, and the Hanoverians in Wellington's force in particular. I found it a compelling read. A real page-turner that was very hard to put down.

Simms avoids giving too much in the way of time-specific details, and after the main body of the text discusses his reasons, which boil down more or less to the ol' 'fog of war' chestnut. He also notes, after citing numerous personal accounts, that we must be cautious in being too trusting of personal memoirs and the like. Perhaps rather like Wellingtontranslation than some foreign writers are apt to endure? I recall the Greenhill Books Clausewitz work on the 1812 campaign being an uncommonly hard slog, simply terms of reading, as the Prussian author's writing either was, or had at least been rendered as, a very verbose and stodgy style. Sadly I couldn't find anything anywhere in this edition of Jomini's writings crediting the translator. A dedication is reproduced at the beginning of the book, and suggests it was the work of an American, as it's dedicated to 'graduates of the The United States Military Academy of 1849 ... By their classmate.'

Jomini at the time he was in French service. He won the Légion d'Honneur whilst attached to Napoleon's HQ at Eylau, and was Ney's chief of staff at


in his 1812 book), Jomini is, as one might perhaps expect, or at least hope, in the post-revolution meritocracy of Napoleonic France - recall Napoleon's pride at being elected to the Institute of France, and how he took all those savants to Egypt [2] - cut much more from the Enlightenment man cloth, despite his quite conservative political stance.

Jomini's also very candid and even-handed regarding the errors the French made, including Napoleon himself, and particularly so between the 16th and 18th June, noting how, in contrast, Bonaparte's enemies exhibited both clarity of thought and celerity of execution. Having said this, he regards, and ably defends, Napoleon's actual plans as the best chance for French success, and attributes their failure to a combination of factors, including French mistakes, theevident learning - schooled by Bonaparte - of his opponents, the fact that the French didn't rally behind their national cause and leader in anything like the way the Russians or the Spanish did under French invasion, and, in the longer term, the overwhelming odds that France and Napoleon faced.

Jomini chooses to deal with the several days of battle - covering the build-up, Ligny and Quatre Bras, and finally Waterloo itself - in, for the most part, chronological order, and, naturally, from the French viewpoint. He does have to double-back on himself a little to catch up with the movements of Grouchy and the Prussians, but the way he covers it all is, in my view, and given the complexity of the situation, an exemplary model of clarity


his father's actions, and exculpate him from some of the blame that was attaching to him after the disastrous defeat at Waterloo (and his subsequent execution). This is doubly interesting as Jomini had spent periods very close to Ney, as a high ranking member of his staff. He attempts to address this thorny issue with his characteristic even-handedness. The whole episode is intriguing in showing how history plays out so close to the events, with the confusion that arises when multiple variations of a story are vying for acceptance.

Trump spent Wednesday touring a civil rights museum – as his officials repealed guidance extending civil rights protections to transgender children.

Yesterday the Trump administration confirmed it had reversed a policy put in place by the Obama administration that extended civil rights laws to cover transgender people.

Obama officials had extended Title IX provisions, which have outlawed discrimination based on sex since 1972, to also protect gender identity.

This week Trump scrapped the Obama administration guidance, with his Press Secretary Sean Spicer explaining “certain issues like this are not best dealt with at the federal level” – giving a boost to states that want to pass anti-trans laws.

However, while the President’s administration was carrying out a brazen attack on civil rights protections for transgender people, Trump himself spent the morning touringLately, there have been a lot of negative news related to Nepal's first federal constitution surfacing in the media. However, in an outstanding move, the country has added strict anti-discrimination laws for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transsexual (LGBT) community, and has granted them equal rights.

With this, Nepal has become the first ever Asian country and third country in the world after South Africa and Ecuador to have explicit laws benefiting the LGBT community.

A Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Global report has highlighted the articles added to the constitution:

Article 12 states that citizens will be allowed to choose their preferred gender identity on their citizenship document. The choices available are male, female or other.

Article 18 states that gender and sexual minorities will not be discriminated against by the State


and by the judiciary in the application of laws. It further adds that the government may make special provisions through laws to protect, empower and advance the rights of gender and sexual minorities and other marginalized and minority groups.

Article 42 lists gender and sexual minorities among the groups that have a right to participate in state mechanisms and public services to promote inclusion.

As per the report, the first step towards granting equal rights to LGBT community was taken in December 2007. The Supreme Court of Nepal had ordered the government of Nepal to give equal rights to 'sexual and gender minorities' and also ponder upon possibilities of legalising same-sex marriage.

Around the world, people belonging to the LGBT community are fighting for their rights after having to suffer discriminationIn Memoriam: Fr. Gregory Staab, OMV

Obituary

STAAB, Father Gregory Allen, O.M.V. A faithful priest and a member of the St. Ignatius Province of the Congregation of the Oblates of the Virgin Mary, died peacefully at Carney Hospital on March 1, 2018 after a long illness. Throughout his protracted illness, Father Staab was able to maintain an active ministry, offering spiritual counsel and the sacraments while continuing to serve the faithful. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, Fr. Greg grew up in Monroe, Wisconsin. Fr. Staab was one of nine children of Eleanor M. (Botz) Staab and the late William J. Staab, MD. He made his final vows with the Oblates of the Virgin Mary on November 1, 1983 and was ordained to the priesthood by Pope St. John Paul II on May 31,1984 in Rome. Father Staab obtained his S.T.B. degree in Sacred Theology from the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas in 1984 and an S.T.L. in Spiritual Theology from the Pontifical Gregorian University in 1988. Father Staab served in Pinerolo, San Vittorino and Rome, Italy from 1984 to 1988. He returned to Boston and was assigned to St. Clement Eucharistic Shrine and Our Lady of Grace Seminary in Boston from 1988 to 1991. He served as Novice Master at Our Lady of Grace Seminary from 1991 to 1997. Fr. Staab was the assistant pastor of St. Peter Chanel Church in Hawaiian Gardens, CA from 1997 to 2004 and again in 2007. From 2004 to 2007, he served at Our Lady of Lourdes Parish in Ituzaingo, Argentina. From 2009


to 2011, he served at St. Francis Chapel and St. Clement Eucharistic Shrine in Boston, MA. He joined the formation team at the Oblate Center in Cebu, Philippines in 2011. He returned to Boston in 2014, where he was a priest-in-residence at Our Lady of Grace Seminary. As an Oblate of the Virgin Mary, Father Staab was active in providing spiritual direction based on the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola. Father Staab was a well-known and beloved priest who could often be found hearing confessions at St. Francis Chapel and St. Clement Eucharistic Shrine, as long as his strength allowed. He was especially gifted in serving the local young adult and student communities.

draws have been desperately disappointing results, evidence of Ireland’s inability to get over the line, but others have been some of the greatest and most memorable results in Irish football history.

England – World Cup 1990

When Ireland qualified for their first major tournament at Euro 88, they caused the mother of all shocks by beating England in Stuttgart. It was the result that kicked off the Jack Charlton era and a period of unprecedented success for the national team. But it was also the game that shattered any semblance of an inferiority complex against stronger footballing nations, particularly them across the water.

So when these two met again a couple of years later, there was zero chance of Ireland fearing Bobby Robson’s charges. Still, it was a piss poor gamein which England took the lead in the eighth minute through a scrappy Gary Lineker goal. But Kevin Sheedy provided the equaliser with an excellent strike in the 73rd minute.

It was a fantastic result for the Irish, but it was seen as a disaster in the English press, who hounded Robson at any available opportunity. That was all forgotten when they reached the semi-finals, while Ireland went out at the quarters to hosts Italy.

Northern Ireland – World Cup Qualifier (WCQ), 1993

Remember, remember the 17 of November. Well, anyone who bore witness to events that night are unlikely to forget them in a hurry. For this was a night of intense rivalry, hatred, a kitless Tony Cascarino, and Jack Charlton


the North’s manager Billy Bingham, who was managing his last game after 17 years in charge, the former Leeds United player instead said “up yours”. He immediately regretted it, apologising to Bingham soon after.

The main thing was that Ireland had qualified for the World Cup for only the second time in their history, and they had done it with a 1-1 draw.

Germany – Euro Qualifier, 2014

When Ireland were drawn in the same qualification group as soon-to-be world champions Germany, every fan’s head drooped in dread for what was to come. The most fearsome force in international football at the time had played in Dublin just two years previously, doling out an horrific 6-1 beating in the dying days of Giovanni Trapattoni’s reign.

The team was now under new management, as Martin O’Neill and Roy Keane took charge for their first campaign, but hopes were still dismally low. But Ireland held out for the majority of the match, keeping Germany at bay until the 70th minute. Stephen Quinn made the foolish decision of backing off Toni Kroos, who duly dispatched a terrific long range effort past goalkeeper


out another, this time at Lansdowne Road.

The visitors grabbed a first-half lead through Slawomir Peszko, but chose to sit back rather than build on their lead. That invited the Irish onto them, but it seemed for all the world as if they wouldn’t take advantage. That’s until Shane Long popped up with a deft little chip over Lukasz Fabianski to settle things.

The Tipperary native’s goal was the catalyst for huge celebrations by the home crowd, reigniting an atmosphere that had been missing at the ground for years. And it also kept their qualification for the finals on track.

Knowlton Nash, a veteran CBC broadcaster best known as long-time anchor of The National, died Saturday night at the age of 86, around the time he once was getting ready to go on the air.

"Oddly enough it was shortly before 10 o'clock," said Peter Mansbridge, his successor in the anchor chair.

"10 o'clock was his hour...he was Mr 10 o'clock to us," Mansbridge said in a phone interview late Saturday.

Nash died in his Toronto home. He had been battling Parkinson's for some years, The CBC reported.

Nash had a 37-year career with Canada's public broadcaster, including spending a decade behind the anchor desk of The National, CBC's flagship news program.

It was there that the broadcaster whose warm eyes appeared magnified behind his oversized glasses earned the unofficialtitle Uncle Knowlty. It was a reflection of his steady, easy-going style and earnest, scholarly delivery.

"He felt like family to his audience," Mansbridge said.

"There's kind of key words about Knowlton's legacies, the calmness of the approach, the connection with audience."

The CBC issued a statement Sunday, saying "the broadcasting world has lost a giant and the CBC has lost one of its most esteemed and admired colleagues."

"He was a pioneer in the industry who inspired a generation of journalists to aspire to the high standards he set for himself."

Heather Conway, CBC's Executive Vice-President for English Services added, "While I never knew Knowlton personally, Iike most Canadians, I certainly knew him as the anchor of The National. He had a remarkable career and we are deeply indebted


for the contributions he made to CBC and the industry at large; what a legacy he leaves behind."

Prime Minister Stephen Harper said he was saddened to learn that Nash had died.

"During his time as anchor of The National, he became one of the country's most trusted and respected broadcast journalists, delivering the news every night to thousands of Canadian homes with insight, warmth and integrity. To many, he was a household figure," Harper said in a statement Sunday.

"Mr. Nash's remarkable legacy includes the rich historical news archives he leaves behind, the many books he authored and the many journalists he helped to train. The nation mourns the loss of this iconic journalist."

Tributes started pouring in from those who he worked with and those he covered as soon asword of Nash's death spread.

"Had the privilege of working many times with Knowlton Nash. The integrity, intelligence and kindness we aspire to. Thinking of you," anchor and reporter Ian Hanomansing tweeted.

There were also tributes from some of the political leaders who Nash interviewed and covered during his long career.

"Arlene and I mourn the passing of Knowlton Nash, who was a friend and mentor over many years," former Ontario premier Bob Rae tweeted.

Ironically, his dedication to the craft led Nash to walk away from perhaps the most influential spot in Canadian television news in April of 1988.

It was the strongest enticement Nash could offer Mansbridge, then a national correspondent for CBC-TV, to stay in Canada.

Mansbridge had reportedly been offered a $1-million salary to co-anchor a morning


show on the U.S. network CBS.

But he agreed to stay over a late-night cup of hot chocolate after Nash volunteered to move to The National's weekend desk.

"He was a mentor, you were going through whatever kind of work crisis you might be going through or career crisis, you'd talk to Knowlton, he'd give you fantastic advice," said Mansbridge.

His departure — marked by a telephone call by then Prime Minister Brian Mulroney — marked the end of one of the most important decades in the history of the CBC's television news division.

Nash had been a key player in transforming an ailing news show into a major ratings success. From 1969 when he retired his correspondent's trenchcoat to 1978 when he took over anchoring The National, Nashwas director of news and current affairs for the English network of the CBC.

It was under his steady guidance that The National moved to a then-unheard-of 10 p.m. time and was paired with his risky creation, The Journal.

The National/Journal hour became an unassailable jewel in the network's crown until anchor Barbara Frum's death in 1992 brought the Journal to a halt and CBC executives took another gamble with the creation of a 9 p.m. news show, Prime Time News.

He was also at the forefront of changes like going from black and white to colour television and shifting from film to electronic newsgathering, Mansbridge said.

"These were big substantial changes within the way we operated and he was at the pointed end of all of those changes."

Born


Nov. 18, 1927, Nash was the son of a promotions manager. His mother, 20 years his father's junior, was the first woman to fly over Hamilton, he once bragged in an interview.

Except for a brief spell when Nash wanted to be a jockey, he always said he would be a newsman.

As a lad of less than 10, he put out several editions of his own weekly newspaper — six laboriously typed pages — which he sold for less than a nickel. He understood the business well enough to sell ad space in exchange for bubble gum and chocolate to local merchants.

By the Second World War, Nash was hawking the Toronto Star and Telegram on a Toronto street corner.

And before leaving his Forest Hill high school he was sellingstories about collegiate football to the Globe and Mail.

After attending the University of Toronto, Nash was hired in 1947 for $18-a-week by the wire service British United Press. But before that he tried his hand writing for the magazine True Confessions and edited prisoners' letters for True Crime.

In 1951, he began a handful of years in Washington as head of public relations for the International Federation of Agricultural Producers, representing about 35 million farmers in some 40 countries.

Later, during a lengthy stint as a freelancer for the CBC, MacLeans magazine and anyone else who would pay him, Nash covered everything from police courts to presidents. He followed John Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon, and got the last lengthy interview given by Robert Kennedy before


he was assassinated.

He has written books about his career: History on the Run in 1984 and Prime Time At Ten in 1987. He is also the author of Kennedy and Diefenbaker (1990), Visions of Canada (1991).

"He was right there at the front line of history, and there is no question about that it," Mansbridge said.

"How many people can point to those milestones in their past?"‘Singing is not your future.’

That’s when the family’s real troubles began.

Apparently the Chawners were big fans of loud, horrible singing, blasting music late at night and unleashing obscenity-laced tirades at their neighbors. This led to their eviction last fall from the rental house in which they were residing…

Last month at Bury County Court Emma, her sister Samantha, 21, and parents Philip, 53, and mother Audrey, 57, were given 28 days to leave the rented house, but said they intended to fight eviction.

They claimed they were being victimised by neighbours because of their size.

They said scratches on their car and front door, including the word fat engraved into their windscreen, are evidence of the bullying.

Detection of Pneumocystis carinii f. sp. hominis and viruses in presumably immunocompetent infants who died in the hospital or in the community.
Fresh-frozen lung and tracheal-aspirate specimens obtained from 112 infants who died in Santiago, Chile, during 1998-2000 were analyzed for the presence of Pneumocystis DNA, by use of nested DNA amplification of the large subunit mitochondrial rRNA, and for the presence of viruses, by use of culture and immunofluorescence. Pneumocystis DNA was detected in specimens from 45 (51.7%) of 87 infants who died in the community and from 5 (20%) of 25 infants who died in the hospital (P=.006). Primary infection with Pneumocystis was highly frequent among infants who die unexpectedly in the community. Infection with viruses was more common in infants who died in the hospital.It's a good thing that Mitt Romney endorsed President Obama's counterterrorism agenda. Should he win the election in two weeks, Romney will inherit an institutionalized, bureaucratic machine for using lethal robots to target and kill suspected terrorists and their allies. Killing Osama bin Laden was a one-time event; this "Disposition Matrix" is Barack Obama's real national-security legacy.

The Matrix, as detailed in a blockbuster Washington Post expose, is a master list maintained by the National Counterterrorism Center of suspected terrorists around the world, matched with methods for dealing with them. Most often, that means killing them; and most often, that means using an expanding fleet of armed drones to do so, taking off from hubs in the Arabian Peninsula, eastern Afghanistan and Djibouti's Camp Lemonnier. Despite bin Laden's death


appears to be the mainstay of U.S. efforts: nearly 3,000 people have been slain by drone strikes, according to a Post online database, including an undisclosed number of civilians. And the security agencies are preparing for even more.

As the Post's Greg Miller recounts, the security bureaucracy has dug in. The Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), the elite military organization that killed bin Laden, now runs a targeting center outside Washington. The CIA, Miller writes, seeks to expand its drone fleet and remain "a paramilitary force," rather than "return to its pre-Sept. 11 focus on gathering intelligence." The U.S. military might be drawing down from Afghanistan, but JSOC and the CIA are what backstop that retrenchment.

At the nearby National Counterterrorism Center, teams of analysts and officials compile the targetingoutstanding problems.” He reportedly added: “You are a terrific guy. You are doing amazing work which is visible in every way.”

The hilarity of his hyperbole aside, Trump’s intervention could have serious consequences for both regional and global stability.

First, a quick summary: since the British quit the subcontinent in 1947, India and Pakistan have fought four wars, of which three have been over the northern region of Kashmir. Heavily militarized, and divided between the two by a de facto border called the Line of Control (LoC), Kashmir is claimed in its entirety by both New Delhi and Islamabad. With tensions in the region climbing again in recent months, another war, many fear, could potentially go nuclear. Against this backdrop, Washington has a particularly tricky balancing act to negotiate if


the strategic imperative for improved relations between the US and Pakistan is clear — for the safety of American troops and the success of their mission in Afghanistan, for the stability of the region and for the national security of both Pakistan and the U.S.”

India — and a growing cohort of voices internationally — would strongly disagree. New Delhi has long blamed Pakistan for sponsoring terrorist attacks on its soil, a charge Islamabad denies. Tensions have spiraled in recent months, after a devastating attack on an Indian military base near the LoC on Sept. 18 that killed several Indian soldiers. India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that the attackers came from Pakistan and, in response, ordered what New Delhi described as a “surgical strike” in Pakistani-controlled Kashmir toIndia? And where does that leave India, an increasingly important U.S. ally under recent American Presidents? How will India now react to any US attempt to cool tensions between New Delhi and Islamabad?

Only last year, at the beginning of 2015, President Obama became the first American leader to attend India’s annual Republic Day parade, an annual show of India’s military might in the capital New Delhi. It was a strong message from the U.S. leadership that the two countries shared an increasingly close relationship, with deepening economic and military ties.

Washington has clearly been cultivating a regional counterweight to China, India’s powerful northern neighbor. China has noticed, and has correspondingly been building links with Pakistan. In fact, as Obama landed in India, China rolled out the red carpet for

The answer, as my Washington Examiner colleague Byron York has argued, is that he waited until after his impeccably apolitical deputy attorney general, Rod Rosenstein, was in place as Comey's direct superior. Rosenstein was confirmed April 25, and his memorandum titled "Restoring Public Confidence in the FBI" was appended to Trump's firing letter exactly two weeks later.

In that document, Rosenstein characterized Comey's July 5 statement on the FBI's investigation of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's secret email system as "a textbook example of what federal prosecutors and agents are taught not to do." In support of that proposition, he cited


comments from five former deputy attorneys general and four former attorneys general of both major political parties (including Eric Holder, who held both offices).

Who is Rosenstein? He started off as a career Justice Department lawyer and was appointed U.S. attorney for Maryland by George W. Bush in 2005. He was one of only three -- out of 93 nationwide -- U.S. attorneys kept on during the Obama administration. This could not have happened without the approval of Maryland's Democratic senators, Barbara Mikulski and Ben Cardin.

Both of them are paragons of integrity with long experience in the swampland of Maryland politics. Mikulski was elected to the Baltimore City Council in 1971 and to Congress in 1976. Cardin was elected to the state Legislature in 1966 and to Congress inyears away from Vietnam and Watergate as they were from the 1920s.

Can something be said in defense of Comey? He was put in a terrible position by Bill and Hillary Clinton and the Obama Justice Department. Justice officials downplayed the criminal nature of the investigation of Hillary Clinton's emails and granted immunity to Clinton aides rather than summon them before a grand jury. That amounts to weighting the scales of justice in favor of the administration's preferred candidate for president.

So does the June 27 meeting on the Phoenix airport tarmac of Bill Clinton and then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch, who revealed herself to be a shameless political hack. That meeting was surely intended to be secret, as was the illegal Hillary Clinton email setup, with which she sent easily

About September 1997, Lieutenant Tony Brown of the Coweta County Sheriff's Department "received complaints from several citizens ..." regarding suspected drug traffic at Dollar's home at 23 Highland Park Drive, Newnan. About October 3, a confidential informant purchased drugs from Dollar at that address. Five to ten days later, Brown sent the informant back to purchase more drugs. But the informant was unable to make a purchase, because Dollar said he was almost out of drugs and did not expect to receive more for a while.
On October 27, Brown received a call from Detective Engen of the LaPalma, California Police Department. Engen informed Brown that the LaPalma police had intercepted a Federal Express package containing ten totwelve pounds of marijuana that was intended to be shipped to 23 Highland Park Drive, Newnan, Georgia. Engen explained that the package was originally addressed to J. Ragland at 23 Highland Drive in Newnan but the package had been returned to Federal Express in California. A man identifying himself as Watson or Washington had called Federal Express in California with the routing number for the package and stated that the correct address for delivery was 23 Highland Park Drive and not 23 Highland Drive. A Federal Express employee became suspicious of the package, opened it, and saw the marijuana, and then Federal Express contacted the LaPalma police.
Engen shipped the package to Brown, and Brown procured a search warrant for 23 Highland Park Drive from a Coweta County magistrate.


Brown and several other officers then performed a controlled delivery. One officer, disguised as a Federal Express employee, delivered the package to the door, while Brown and others waited nearby. Dollar came to the door, accepted the package, and, without prompting, signed for it in the name of J. Ragland, the false name to which it was addressed.
Immediately afterward, the search warrant was executed and Dollar was placed under arrest. Dollar had seven bags of cocaine in his left front pocket. Fifty-two bags of cocaine and a bag of marijuana were found on a bedroom dresser, four large bags of cocaine were found under a bed, and one bag of marijuana was found in the living room. After he was read his rights, when the police suggested thatof the informant's veracity and the basis of his knowledge.[3] Reliability may be shown by corroboration of the informant's tip.[4]
Although Brown's affidavit did not state facts relevant to the informant's veracity and the basis of his knowledge, under the totality of the circumstances the affidavit provided an ample basis for a finding of probable cause. The informant's communication that drugs were being kept and sold at 23 Highland Park Drive was corroborated when the informant purchased marijuana there and gave it to Brown, when Dollar told the informant that he expected to receive more drugs in the future, and, subsequently, when a package shipped through Federal Express and intended for delivery to that address was intercepted and found to contain a large quantity of marijuana.
(b) Dollar asserts that


incorrect address was corroborated by the return of the package to Federal Express. Finally, the record does not show that at the time Brown went before the magistrate he was aware of any discrepancy between the address Engen gave him and the address Engen recorded on his note and typed on his incident summary. The suppression hearing record shows that when Brown went before the magistrate, he had spoken to Engen by telephone and had received a narrative report from him by fax. In both instances, the correct address was communicated to be 23 Highland Park Drive. The record of the suppression hearing does not show when Brown received copies of Engen's handwritten note and incident summary. We find probable cause existed for the search warrant despite theImage caption Michael Gove reportedly used a private account named "Mrs Blurt"

Emails sent by Education Secretary Michael Gove from a private account should be subject to the Freedom of Information Act, it has been ruled.

Information Commissioner Christopher Graham said Mr Gove's messages dealt with departmental business and therefore should be covered by the law.

The rulingfollows reports Mr Gove used an account named "Mrs Blurt" to discuss government business with advisers.

The Department for Education (DfE) says it is considering an appeal.

Mr Gove has been resisting the release of information on the grounds that ministers' personal email accounts are not covered by the act.

A spokesman for Mr Graham's office said: "The commissioner's decision is that the information amounted to departmental business and so was subject to Freedom of Information laws,


email accounts is subject to FOI - otherwise all departmental business would have switched to Hotmail accounts," it said, in a statement.

"Information about 'political' discussions is also covered by the act, contrary to the department's claims."

The allegations surfaced last September in the Financial Times, which claimed information was being kept away from DfE civil servants and the public.

It quoted an email from one of Mr Gove's special advisers, Dominic Cummings, which reportedly said he would not answer emails to his official department account, but only those sent to a Gmail account and urged the recipients to do likewise.

At the time, the Department for Education responded, saying the emails concerned the 2011 Conservative Party spring conference rather than government business.

Following the newspaper reports, the information commissioner urged Mr Govegoing to get through this.’”

Going into the 1970s, the word “fembot” starts becoming more popular, with The Bionic Woman featuring beautiful women whose faces fall off to reveal scary circuitry — the message being that a robot can appear female to hide a terrifying inhumanity. The Stepford Wives became a huge cultural icon, with the fantasy/nightmare of compliant, beautiful robot wives.

But arguably, the 1980s saw a huge boom in sexy images of gynoids, with artist Hajime Soryama building a whole career out of shiny sleek robot women. Pinball games like The Machine: Bride of Pin-Bot played off that imagery as well. Movies started to feature more sexualized artificial women, including Cherry 2000 and Weird Science — some of whom are deadly, like Pris from Blade Runner and Eve

Breadth Requirements: Creative and Cultural Representations (1) FAH415H1 - History of Islamic Cairo Hours: 24S This seminar explores the architectural and urban development of Islamic Cairo (al-Qahira) between the 7th and 16th centuries. As a nexus of both the Islamic empire and the Mediterranean world, Cairo provides an opportunity to explore a major Islamic Medieval city. Modern day Cairo emerged first as a provincial capital (al-Fustat and later al-Qata'a) in the 7th


and 8th century and later morphed into a capital under successive dynasties from the 9th to the 16th century. Exploring Cairo throughout this critical historical period, one of both relative stability and upheaval during the post-conquest period to the Crusades, allows for a better understanding of the reciprocity between architecture and urbanism on the one hand and broader political shifts on the other.

Hours: 24L This course aims to explore how economic agents act and interact in space and how this creates subdivisions within the global, national and regional political economy. In a largely conceptual and interdisciplinary manner, the course investigates the role of institutions in the relational economy and the spatial construction of the political economy. Institutions are viewed as formal or informal stabilizations


providing an understanding of the economic and political system (and its regional manifestations), which was once (and is now again) viewed as a successful socially-balanced alternative to the market-liberal structures in Anglo-Saxon economies. Drawing upon the varieties-of-capitalism approach, the main themes in the course address the institutional conditions for growth. In a comparative perspective, the course explores topics, such as the role of collective agents, corporate governance and finance, collective bargaining, inter-firm co-operation and regional networks, social security systems, and population structure and immigration. In order to understand the heterogeneous challenges to the “German model”, the conditions are explored under which regional economies develop. This includes an analysis of the reunification process, and of the economic and political situation in the new Länder. Further, the question is raisedlevel, regional level and national level. The first part of the course deals with conceptual foundations of innovation processes, such as evolutionary and institutional views of innovation.

His routes wove together large parts of Africa,


Central & South Asia, and East & Southeast Asia. For more than a thousand years before Battuta began his journey, other travelers had transported ideas, products, and scripts across each of these routes, connecting the histories of the peoples living throughout this vast landmass. Human migration, economic trade, and religious conversion had linked the lands and the seas, making possible for Ibn Battuta to traverse these territories, and to visit the religious homelands of Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam and their expanse across the Africa and Asia. Nearly a thousand years after Ibn Battuta’s travels, human migration, economic trade, and religious conversion continue to affect and connect the cultures, ecology, and economies of these communities. This course investigates how the creation, disruption, and maintenance of the economic, linguistic,and religious communities in the millennium before and after Ibn Battuta’s travels affected the lives and livelihoods of peoples of Africa and Asia, where 80% of the world’s population resided, then and today.
