As this case goes to a higher court, I am confident that we have the law on our side. My office will continue planning to give the Mayor's Community Partnership Schools -- the high schools and feeder schools that AB 1381 would put under my control -- a running start when they open in the next academic year. We will engage parents, teachers, business leaders and members of the community in the selection, design, planning and administration of those schools to make them genuine incubators of innovation.


President Trump is expected to repeal the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy on Tuesday, ending deportation protections for hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants who arrived in the United States as children. Jeff Sessions is set to make the announcement at 11 a.m., and will reportedly lay out the president's plan to give Congress six months to enact a replacement of the Obama-era executive action.

It remains unclear what the administration's decision will mean for the country's 800,000 DREAMers, many of whom have lived in the United States nearly their entire lives. Throughout the week, New Yorkers will take to the streets to voice their opposition to the president, and to show their support for DACA recipients and undocumented immigrants. See below for our roundup of those demonstrations,along with some other activism opportunities happening throughout the city this week.

DACA Fights Back: Trump Tower Take Over

On Tuesday morning, thousands of protesters are expected to descend on Trump Tower as part of a "DACA Fight Back Midtown Shutdown." Organized by activist group Movimiento Cosecha, and promoted by the Women's March, the demonstration will involve school walkouts, attempts at street shutdowns and an occupation of Trump Tower, plus other forms of direct action protest taken by undocumented leaders. According to an event flyer, protesters will begin gathering outside the Fifth Avenue tower at 11 a.m., and will stay there all day and into the evening.

CUNY Students Defend DACA At City Hall

On Tuesday afternoon, about four


miles south of Trump Tower, a separate rally in support of DACA recipients has been planned by students at the Borough of Manhattan Community College—home to one of the largest student DACA populations in the city. Organizers are calling on "all CUNY students...to join us. Let us all stand united as one and show our support." Advocates will gather at Icarus Plaza in Tribeca (119 Chambers Street), before marching to City Hall for a rally featuring student speakers and more.

Russ Stockton also asserted that Sentry's and McDuff's actions forced him to resign, and although he had prearranged with Sentry to have his dental work done, Sentry called the dentist's office and improperly withheld its approval when Russ was actually in the dental chair having his teeth drilled. In their complaint, the Stocktons alleged the following seven separate causes of action against Sentry and McDuff:
(1) fraud in the offer of a franchise to Russ Stockton;
(2) tort of outrage towards both Russ and Stephanie Stockton;
(3) violation of the wage and hour laws as related to Stephanie;
(4) negligence against Russ Stockton;
(5) breach of Russ Stockton's contract;
(6) tortious interference with Russ Stockton's contract;
(7) battery in Russ Stockton's favor as a result of Sentry's acts

Gstadt (original name "Gestadte") located in the "Chiemgau" region (a former Roman province of Noricum) was first documented in 1168 and was the departure point for boats crossing to the monastery of Frauenchiemsee. Later in the 19th century, the town was frequently visited by poets, writers and painters arriving on stagecoaches from Munich on their way to the islands. Through the centuries Gstadt remained loyal to agriculture and started to cater to tourism after World War II.

PARIS (AP) — Hundreds of rescuers backed by helicopters evacuated about 1,600 people, most of them campers, in three regions of southern France where heavy rain caused flash flooding and transformed rivers and streams into torrents, the interior minister said Thursday.

Hardest hit was the Gard region, where 119 children, many of them from Germany, were evacuated from their campsite at Saint-Julien-de-Peyrolas, Interior Minister Gerard Collomb said in a statement.

About 750 people in all were evacuated in Gard, mainly from campsites, a top district official, Thierry Dousset, told France’s BFM-TV news channel.

Search teams that included divers combed swollen waters for a man reported missing. BFM-TV said he was a 70-year-old German citizen serving as a monitor at the Saint-Julien-de-Peyrolas site and feared to have been swept away byflood waters along with his van.

However, Dousset, the top aide of the Gard administration, said no one knew for certain yet that the man was in his van at the time.

Four German children were hospitalized for hypothermia in Bagnols-sur-Ceze, a town on the Ceze River, Dousset said. They were among 10 people hospitalized with minor injuries, the Gard Gendarmerie said on its Facebook page.

After a hot spell, the flash flooding in the northern part of the Gard region turned the Ceze and L’Ardeche rivers into churning waterways that quickly spilled out of their banks. Nearby regions — all part of the verdant and mountainous Cevennes — also saw flooding.

Collomb, the interior minister, said in a statement that 1,600 people were evacuated as a precaution in the Gard, the

in an ABC/Post poll there two weeks ago.

Clinton's lead in New Hampshire inches up in lower-turnout scenarios, suggesting her support is more reliable. Moreover, among those who've definitely decided on their candidate, she leads Obama by a wide 43-28 percent; and among the most enthusiastic likely voters she leads him by 45-24 percent. There's no such difference in Iowa.

Looking at the flipside, changeability, among the one in four likely voters who say there's a good chance they may change their minds, 23 percent currently support Clinton, 36 percent Obama. That suggests he's more vulnerable to reconsideration.

At the same time Obama is taking full advantage of Clinton's weaknesses. A perceived lack of forthrightness continues to dog her; 41 percent in New Hampshire say Clinton's not willing enough to sayto support her. Women are twice as likely as men to say so, 24 percent vs. 12 percent, rising to 32 percent of single women (which includes divorced and widowed women as well as those never married). It's also higher among Democrats vs. independents, among older people and among liberals vs. moderates.

ATTRIBUTES -- In terms of attributes, Obama easily trumps Clinton as the candidate who's the "most inspiring," leads her on honesty and trustworthiness (a Clinton weakness nationally and in Iowa as well) and challenges her on empathy. The two run evenly on the question of who would do most to bring needed change to Washington.

But, as noted, Clinton comes back very strongly on her other attributes -- electability, experience (on which Obama is quite weak) and strong


leadership. And she leads Obama by 17 points as the candidate who's campaigned hardest in New Hampshire, a plus in a state where candidates are expected early and often.

ISSUES -- Building on her ratings for experience and leadership, Clinton leads in New Hampshire on six of seven issues tested in this poll, with an especially large advantage on one of the top concerns to likely Democratic voters, health care.

Obama, notably, leads on none of these.

Unlike Republican voters, there is a clear emphasis among Democrats on top issues: About half cite both health care and the war in Iraq as the two most important issues in their vote, with the economy and education following -- quite similar to views in Iowa. Among Democrats nationally the same items come up,Early Lung Cancer Detection: Approaching the 'Tipping Point'?

Early Lung Cancer Detection: Approaching the 'Tipping Point'?

On October 20, 2006, the International-Early Lung Cancer Action Program (I-ELCAP), an international consortium of leading early lung cancer detection researchers and allied health-care providers including radiologists, thoracic surgeons, pulmonologists, oncologists, statisticians, research nurses, and computer scientists met at Cornell University Medical Center for their 15th International Conference. The meeting occurred as the New England Journal of Medicine was publishing I-ELCAP's landmark experience in using spiral computed tomography (CT) in over 31,000 individuals at risk for lung cancers from 38 institutions across three continents (NEJM 355:1763-1771, 2006).

Spurred by the knowledge of lethality of lung cancer with best standard approaches, these professionals, led by Prof. Claudia Henschke and a team from Cornell, have worked over

On Wednesday, Iraq's Interior Ministry spokesman Saad Maan Ibrahim denied that the arrested woman was al-Baghdadi's wife. He told the Associated Press that the woman is Saja Abdul Hamid al-Dulaimi, an Iraqi national who traveled to Syria before arriving in Lebanon.

Ibrahim says she is the sister of Omar Abdul Hamid al-Dulaimi, who is held in Iraq as a terror suspect. He says al-Baghdadi has two wives but neither is named Saja al-Dulaimi.

The news of the arrest comes amid attempts to reach a prisoner-exchange deal between Lebanese authorities, the Islamic State and the Nusra Front, al-Qaeda's Syria branch, which has held more than 20 Lebanese soldiers and policemen hostage


since August.

They have demanded the release of Islamist prisoners being held by Lebanese authorities. On Monday night, the Nusra Front threatened to kill one of the soldiers it is holding captive.

If the woman is al-Baghdadi's wife, her arrest could be used as a bargaining chip for Lebanese authorities in their attempts to win the freedom of the troops.

Terrorism expert Sajjan M. Gohel, the international security director at the Asia Pacific Foundation, told CNN: "It's certainly a new dynamic because we've never seen anybody connected so close to al-Baghdadi being detained.

"Is he estranged from them? Has he fallen out with them? Were they escaping from him?"

French newspaper Le Monde described al-Baghdadi, formerly a longtime leader of al-Qaeda in Iraq, as "the new Bin Laden." The United States has a$10 million bounty on his head.

Now based in Syria, al-Baghdadi, also known as Abu D'ua, has taken personal credit for a range of attacks in Iraq on both state security forces and ordinary citizens since 2011.

In July, a video surfaced of a man officials believe to be al-Baghdadi addressing a crowd from a mosque balcony in Mosul. The Iraqi city is home to some 2 million people and is part of a territory that includes parts of Iraq and Syria that the Islamic State, also known as ISIL or ISIS, has declared to be its own Islamic state, or caliphate.

Little is known about al-Baghdadi's personal life. Conservative interpretations of Islam allow for a man to marry up to four wives.

Al-Baghdadi's first wife is believed to be Iraqi citizen

Q:

Who governed London during the Great Plague?

I am writing a story for a game and I want to try to make it as accurate as possible. To this end, I would like to find who governed London, England, during the time of the Great Plague, but I can't seem to find it. So, who governed London during the Great Plague?

A:

The day-to-day running of London remained in the hands of the Lord Mayor. This from the National Archives:

The Lord Mayor and aldermen (town councillors) remained to enforce the
  King’s orders to try and stop the spread of the disease. The poorest
  people remained in London with the rats and those people who had the
  plague. Watchmen locked and kept guard over infected houses. Parish
 officials provided food.

The poster below is from 1646 but the orders therein are almost identical to the those of 1665.

Source: http://www.bl.uk/learning/images/uk/plague/large3333.html
According to Wikipedia, it was the Privy Council (formal advisors to the king) which took the decision to start household quarantines.  Once the plague was out of control (July), King Charles II moved to Oxford, which was where Parliament was held. Others who could also left London, including lawyers, merchants and doctors (!).

ABOUT THE MOVIE

The Space Less Traveled is a feature length documentary about Apollo 14 astronaut and sixth man on the moon, Edgar Mitchell, whose three day return flight to Earth in 1971 was a revelation, shaping the rest of his life. The Space Less Traveled shines a light on Ed’s ceaseless exploration since his return, focusing on his work as a scientist, philosopher, author, poet, and humanitarian. With unprecedented access, we’ve spent the last year filming Ed and his closest friends, colleagues, and family. This has culminated in numerous never before heard stories and insights. Ed’s pursuits in the areas of consciousness, healing, sustainability, cosmology, extraterrestrials, and the paranormal have made himwas in any other way assaulted with bottles,” Judge Lennerbrant said in a news release. “This has affected the assessment of the seriousness of the crime,” he added.

Damien Brunner News

Brunner has cleared unconditional waivers and has mutually terminated his contract with the Devils.

Brunner leaves a $1.7 million contract on the table and will sign with HC Lugano (per swisshockeynews.ch). Brunner served as a healthy scratch in the last four games and had just seven points (2G / 5A) in 17 games this season.

Brunner missed the last two games after suffering a leg injury last Thursday vs. the Blue Jackets. He will play his first game against his former team tonight, when the Red Wings come to New Jersey. Brunner will skate on the second line with Patrik Elias and Adam Henrique. Brunner has 17 points (9G / 8A) in 42 games this season.

Brunner has missed the last 14 games with a sprained MCL but willslide back onto the Devils' third line with Dainius Zubrus and Patrik Elias tonight. Brunner has 14 points (8G / 5A) with a minus-6 rating and 70 shots on goal in 32 games in his first season with New Jersey.

Brunner has been out since December 20 because of a sprained MCL but was back on the ice skating on a regular line on Monday. He was skating with Patrik Elias and Dainius Zubrus so it looks like he will be back in tomorrow. The Swiss forward has 13 points (8G / 5A) in 32 games in his first season with the Devils.

Mattias Tedenby will enter the lineup in Brunner's place tonight vs. Los Angeles. Brunner has failed to record a point in the last 10 games. He had


seven points in the first 10 contests but has cooled off considerably. The entire New Jersey offence has struggled and ranks 25th in scoring.

Brunner missed Saturday's contest with the Rangers due to general upper-body soreness. He returns to the lineup tonight with three goals and two assists in his first seven games with the Devils. He will skate on a line with Andrei Loktionov and Dainius Zubrus.

The New Jersey Devils have signed Damien Brunner to a two-year deal worth $5 million.

Brunner was in Devils camp on a professional tryout but has obviously impressed them enough to earn a contract. The 27-year-old had 12 goals and 14 assists in 44 games in his first NHL season with the Red WIngs.

Brunner joined the Detroit Red Wings last season and scoredThe Roles of Food Processing in Translation of Dietary Guidance for Whole Grains, Fruits, and Vegetables.

When irradiating the beam spot on the track of the optical disk, a laser beam from a light source is focused on the optical disk by means of an objective lens. The slide mode for shifting the beam spot to the target track is generally performed by linearly moving the optical head having the objective lens using a voice coil motor.

WWI Poetry: On Veterans Day, The Words Of War

Four U.S. soldiers, runners for the 315th Infantry, pose in France in November 1918. The troops reportedly carried official orders to Lt. Col. Bunt near Etraye, France, shortly before noon, Nov. 11, 1918, announcing that the armistice had been signed, thereby ending World War I.

English poet Rupert Chawner Brooke died of dysentery aboard a troop ship headed for Gallipoli in April 1915. His poem "The Soldier" is one of the most famous poems written during World War I.

Veterans Day — originally Armistice Day — was renamed in 1954 to include veterans who had fought in all wars. But the day of remembrance has its roots in World War I —Nov. 11, 1918 was the day the guns fell silent at the end of the Great War. On this Veterans Day, we celebrate the poetry of World War I, one of the legacies of that conflict.

Soldiers like Siegfried Sassoon, Wilfred Owen, John McCrae and Rupert Brooke wrote evocative poems about their experiences. One of the most famous poems of the war is Brooke's "The Soldier." Brooke died of dysentery aboard a troop ship headed for Gallipoli in April 1915. The opening verse of "The Soldier" reads:

If I should die, think only this of me: That there's some corner of a foreign fieldThat is for ever England. There shall be In that rich earth a richer dust concealed;A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware, Gave, once, her flowers


to love, her ways to roam,A body of England's, breathing English air, Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.

Every schoolchild learns some of these World War I poems and the classroom is one of the only places they can be found today.

There's another poem — one most Americans don't know — that lives on around the world. Every year since 1921, the fourth verse of Laurence Binyon's "For the Fallen" has been read aloud at remembrance services in Britain and across the British Commonwealth countries.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.

Binyon wrote the poem in the fallof 1914, at the very beginning of the war, says Sarah Cole, an Associate Professor at Columbia University and author of Modernism, Male Friendship, and the First World War.

"It certainly represents an early moment of the war," Cole says. "... It's memorializations as anticipatory. ... They are setting the stage for thinking about and remembering the dead that are oncoming now."

As for the poet himself, Binyon isn't that well known, largely because he wasn't a "soldier" poet, but Cole says he did play his part in the war — but as a non-combatant. At 46, he was too old to fight but he volunteered in with a hospital unit in France.

"He was in-between generations," she explains. There was the older generation of fathers "who are often condemned by


some of the famous war poets as being kind of callously irresponsible and even kind of criminal in sending their sons off to be killed, but nor was he young enough to fight."

Binyon wrote "For the Fallen" while sitting on the cliffs at Pentire Head in Cornwall after reading early casualty reports from the Western Front. A plaque commemorating his life was placed there in 2003. It's inscribed with the four lines that are still read aloud every year — nearly 100 years later.

RENEE MONTAGNE, HOST:

As we celebrate Veterans Day, let's think back to its beginning World War I. The holiday started as Armistice Day, when the guns fell silent at the end of that war. In 1954, it was renamedVeterans Day to include those who had fought in all wars.

One of the legacies of World War I is poetry. Soldiers like Seigfried Sassoon, Rupert Brooke, Wilfred Owen, and John McRae wrote evocative poems about their experiences.

UNIDENTIFIED MAN #1: (Reading) If I should die, think only this of me: That there's some corner of a foreign field that is forever England. There shall be in that rich earth a richer dust concealed, a dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware, gave once her flowers to love, her ways to roam, A body of England's, breathing English air, washed by the rivers, blessed by suns of home.

MONTAGNE: That's the opening verse of "The Soldier," by Rupert Brooke, one of the most famous poems of the war. Brooke died of


she's author of "Modernism, Male Friendship, and the First World War."

SARAH COLE: He wrote this poem at the very beginning of the war, about six weeks in, in the fall of 1914. And it certainly represents an early moment in the war.

MONTAGNE: As for the poet himself, Binyon isn't that well known, largely because he wasn't a soldier poet. But Cole says he did play his part in the war.

COLE: He was in-between generations. We might say the generation of the sort of fathers who are often condemned by some of the famous war poets, as being kindof callously irresponsible and even kind of criminal in sending their sons off to be killed. But nor was he young enough to fight. He was a noncombatant though he was very involved in the war effort. He volunteered - I believe he was 46 - to serve in a hospital unit in France.

On this edition of the Antifada side project on the politics of Latin America, we discuss the political situation in Bolivia, where last year riots against a supposed voter fraud lead to a coup of far-right evangelicals. Since then, they have massacred protesters, clamped down on free speech, and cancelled election after election. Spanish historian José Lastra Zorrilla uses the method of analysis of Marx's 18 Brumaire describe the origins of the coup, the failures of Morales and MAS, and how the Bolivian campesinos and workers continue to struggle against the new regime, even as the pandemic rages.

Russian Communists Want to Scrap Historic Treaty with Turkey

As Moscow tests for Turkey’s weaknesses in the fight over the downed SU-24 fighter plane, Russia’s communists have gone on a mission to revoke a treaty that their Soviet forefathers signed with Ankara. Heads are turning in the South Caucasus, which was essentially sliced and diced into its modern-day shape by the treaty and another 1921 Soviet-Turkish accord.

The document under debate, the 1921 Treaty of Moscow, drew a line between the Turkish Republic and the Soviet Union, and also set the borders of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia without the consent of the three newly Bolshevik-occupied nations. The partitioning was further cinched by the Treaty of Kars, signed by the then Soviet republics’ Bolshevik-installed authorities.

The idea of revoking thewin came from Spack, who major decisioned Brett Himes, 14-4.

Spack was scoring at will during the first period, taking a 10-2 advantage into the second period after three takedowns and four back points.

Spack slowed down during the final four minutes, scoring just two takedowns.

Woodson and his opponent, Chad Quail, went back-and-forth at 215 pounds. Woodson trailed 2-0 after a Quail takedown, but things were tied at two entering the second period after a Woodson reversal.

Three-straight reversals ensued during the second period, with the third propelling Woodson to a 6-4 win.

"His transitions were crisp," Eddy said. "He won only 6-4, but he was trying some things and got a little sloppy at times."

Both Schuckers and Bowers earned victories by fall during the third period. Schuckers pinned Cody Stahl in

Rabid bat found at City of SeaTac park

August 30, 2017

Summary

A rabid bat was found at Angle Lake Park in the City of SeaTac. If you had any contact with a bat at Angle Lake Park on Monday, August 28 or Tuesday, August 29, contact Public Health immediately for information on preventative treatment. Rabies can be life-threatening, but treatable if caught early.

Story

A rabid bat was found in Angle Lake Park in the City of SeaTac near the lakeshore by the old lifeguard shack. The bat was noticed by a park visitor on Tuesday afternoon, August 29. The visitor immediately notified a City of SeaTac employee who contacted Regional Animal Services of King County (RASKC). The bat appeared sick and was humanely euthanized at RASKC. The


On Tuesday, the Times published a major story describing the various ways that Donald Trump has tried to undermine or end the investigations surrounding his Presidency. Late last year, the Times reported, Trump called the acting Attorney General, Matthew Whitaker (who was just replaced by William Barr), to ask whether Geoffrey Berman, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, could be put in charge of his office’s investigation into Michael Cohen. This would have required Berman—who worked on Trump’s transition, was appointed by Trump, and recused himself from the Cohen investigation—to un-recuse himself from the inquiry. (Trump, of course, wanted his previous Attorney General, Jeff Sessions, to do the same with the Russia investigation.)

Flight 7920, which traveled only a mile or so, was part of Jacksonville International Airport's first Wings for Autism event, an "airport dress rehearsal" for area families with autistic children. Thirty families obtained boarding passes, went through security, ate boxed lunches together, waited, walked down the tunnel, boarded the plane, waited some more and experienced the plane's movement as it was towed from the terminal to the runway and back. . . .

Wings for Autism was created in 2011 by the Charles River Center in Massachusetts and the Massachusetts Port Authority to help alleviate some of the stress that people with sensory and developmental disorders experience when traveling by air. Also, the free program helps airport personnel learn how to accommodate children with special needs.

The public needs to realize that when it comes to vaccination, neither the doctor nor the vaccine maker have any liability. They're protected by federal law. Instead, injured parties have to appeal to a federal program where they're up against government lawyers defending government approved vaccines using government money. Few people ever get their day in court.

The hearings that will determine whether a severely autistic and diabetic student in Yuba City be allowed to return to school with a private nurse got underway on Monday.

David Swanson, 21, hasn't attended school since February 2013.

"It's not his fault," Swanson's mother Heather Houston said. "But he's the one being punished for it."

It's an part of an ongoing battle with the Yuba City Unified School District and the Sutter County superintendent ofthat project above the wing ahead of the ailerons and the windshield. A Model 23 has a set of vor-tex generators on the underside of the wing as well as the upper surface; 24s have them only on the upper surface. The Model 24's windshield, befitting a transport-category airplane, is a bird -proof design with a T-shaped stiffener on the vertical post separating the two halves; if this stiffener is missing, you are looking at a Model 23. The factory's records, in 1978, indicated that 12 of the 88 Model 23s still flying were Model 24s in every respect except serial number.)

The first Learjet 24 was flown on 24 February 1966 and gained certification the following month. In 1967 Bill Lear's holdings in Lear Jet Corporation were acquired


oval cabin windows. A Model 24D/A was also available with take-off weight restricted to 5669kg.

In 1976 these two versions were superseded by the Learjet 24E and Learjet 24F, introducing a new cambered wing and aerodynamic improvements to reduce stall and approach speeds. Although the two models were generally similar, the Learjet 24F differed by having almost 18 per cent greater fuel capacity. Production of the Learjet 24E was terminated during 1979, and that of the Learjet 24F during 1980, 258 model 24s having been built.

The improved model 24 with airline transport category certification was introduced, and in 1968, a stretched 10-seat model 25 was offered. This aircraft has the most exceptional climb rate in its class. The All Learjets are approved for operation at 45,000 feet, and theymost often in young people.
Lentigo maligna is similar to the superficial spreading type, as it also remains close to the skin surface for quite a while, and usually appears as a flat or mildly elevated mottled tan, brown or dark brown discoloration. It is found most often in the elderly. When this cancer becomes invasive, it is referred to as lentigo maligna melanoma.
Acral lentiginous melanoma also spreads superficially before penetrating more deeply. It is quite different from the others, though, as it usually appears as a black or brown discoloration under the nails or on the soles of the feet or palms of the hands. This type of melanoma is sometimes found on dark-skinned people, and can often advance more quickly than superficial spreading melanoma and lentigo maligna.

When the "American Dream" shopping mall and entertainment complex was first conceived more than two decades ago, the internet was in its infancy and Amazon.com was still a gleam in Jeff Bezos's eye. Yet while times have clearly changed, the facility's operators — which opened its doors on Friday in East Rutherford, New Jersey — think consumers haven't completely given up on the idea of hitting the mall.

The mall is the second-largest in the U.S. and cost an estimated $5 billion to build. It is launching at a time when thousands of brick-and-mortar retailers are closing shop. It will showcase 3 million square feet of leasable space dedicated to more than a dozen entertainment attractions, including a 16-story indoor ski slope, rollercoaster, water park and eventually 450 retail,rash of store closings. Since 2015, only nine malls have been built, a dramatic fall from their peak construction in 1973 of 43, according to CoStar Group, a real estate research firm.

Stores across the U.S. are closing at a rapid pace. More than 7,000 retail outlets closed in the first half of 2019, versus 3,017 stores opening. In 2018, 5,864 stores closed and 3,258 opened.

The mall will also prove to be a challenge for those who don't want to pay for parking, as it will charge $24 to park for eight hours, reports CBS New York. For those who don't want to pay for parking, express buses will run from New York City and Secaucus, while shuttle buses will run from Weehawken's ferry station, CBS New York added.

Goal:


and emotion, far more than a property or even Disneyland."

Downing says American Dream was designed to adapt to different events and trends. A grand court's fountain, for example, can convert into a catwalk for a runway show. The ice rink can be transformed into a concert venue.

Canada-based mall and entertainment conglomerate Triple Five in 2011 took over the massive project originally dubbed Xanadu from two developers, whose plans included building the world's largest Ferris wheel. The project broke ground in 2004 but it languished during the early years, with its multi-colored, checkerboard exterior — since removed — drawing derision, including from then-New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie who called it "an offense to the eyes" and "the ugliest damn building in New Jersey and maybe America."

Financial crisis setback

The project was suspended in 2009 during the financial crisis after a Lehmann Bros. affiliate failed to fund its share of the construction. Creditors seized the project in 2010, and Triple Five came on board a year later, renaming it American Dream.

Triple Five reimagined American Dream as a community hub for tourists and locals, taking a page from two other malls it had developed, West Edmonton Mall in Alberta, Canada and Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota — the two largest malls in North America. Entertainment was a big selling point for both, accounting for 20% of the West Edmonton Mall's space and 30% of Mall of


America's. That compares with the 6% average for U.S. malls, according to CoStar.

American Dream has its fair share of skeptics who wonder about its chances of success, especially given its proximity to New York City less than 10 miles away.

"This development will either sink or swim," said Jason Goldberg, chief commerce strategy officer of Publicis Communications. "It's going to be tough to get a lot of attention when you are next to a much bigger amusement park — Manhattan."

Goldberg believes the complex could work if the amusement park entices enough families in New Jersey to get into their cars and drive out there. But he'sAUSTRALIA would have experienced 15 terror attacks including public beheadings on home soil over the past three years if most plots in their advanced stages hadn’t been foiled, according to police.

The terror attacks police were unable to prevent include the Lindt Cafe siege in Sydney in which manager Tori Johnson and mother-of-three Katrina Dawson lost their lives; the killing of police accountant Curtis Cheng by 15-year-old schoolboy Farhad Khalil Mohammed Jabar in Parramatta and the non-fatal stabbing of Wayne Greenhalgh in Minto last year.

October 2016

Two schoolboys who were allegedly preparing for a terror attack in Sydney’s southwest, with police alleging they had links to the Islamic State, were arrested and refused bail on Wednesday.

The 16-year-olds were detained in a laneway behind a Bankstown mosque about midday, hours after they allegedly bought two bayonets at a local gun shop.

Police wearing protective vests headed to the prayer hall after officers received information about the alleged purchase of the knives. The pair allegedly also had pieces of paper with religious statements on them, which the Daily Telegraph reported they planned to read out while they carried out a beheading.

A recently filed permit includes plans that outline a new theater space between Rock 'n' Roller Coaster and Tower of Terror. The backstage area has previously been used to host Darth's Mall during Star Wars Weekends, and various events during the old ESPN The Weekend.

The new 'flex space' theater being built may indicate that the park's other flex space, the Premiere Theater on Street of America may soon be closed.

Titanium and Zirconia External Connection Abutments Produced Following a Digital Protocol: An In Vitro Study.
To assess the quality of precision at the implant-abutment interface of single-tooth restorations with titanium and zirconia abutments with hexagonal external connections produced using a digital protocol. A total of 20 abutments were produced with commercially pure titanium, and 20 abutments with zirconia, both following a necessary digital protocol. Rotational freedom of all the abutments was assessed. All data were analyzed according to procedures established by software package STATA 14.2. No significant differences relative to rotational freedom emerged between the two groups. This study showed that both types of abutments constantly demonstrated approximately 2 degrees of rotational freedom between implant and abutment where the hexagonal external connection was concerned.Manchester property is booming and our friends and partners Beech Holdings are at the forefront of this revolution in the city centre.

before an individual of such stature is deported, we should at least give him the opportunity to present his side, Har-Zahav said. Yet even this was not granted to him. Nobody bothered to get back to me.

According to the lawsuit, the Interior Ministrys decision undermines the longstanding tradition which grants clerics who live in Jerusalem a special status in the eyes of Israeli justice. This decision [to deport Dawani] is a grave, serious act that strips the bishop of his ability to carry out his functions while harming the church and its devotees, not to mention the image of the state of Israel and its foreign relations.

The case has attracted the attention of the Episcopal Churchs bishop in Washington, John Bryson Chane, who protested the Interior Ministrys decisionduring a meeting with Israels ambassador to Washington, Michael Oren.

Bryson Chane and the presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church in the United States, Katherine Jefferts Schori, wrote a letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urging him to renew Dawanis visa. A copy of the letter was forwarded to Obama. As of last night, Netanyahu had yet to reply.

20 NSFW Japanese Tattoos

Throughout many cultures around the world, artists have portrayed erotic themes in paintings, drawings, and sculptures for many centuries. One of the most recognizable erotic art styles is shunga, a Japanese subgenre of the ukiyo-e movement of the 17th through 19th centuries. Shunga was traditionally crafted on woodblocks, however, some historians have found handpainted scrolls that predate the Edo-period.

Shunga frequently portrayed the contemporary urban class—which included townsmen, merchants, artisans, and farmers. However, courtesans were one of the most popular subjects and artist Kitagawa Utamaro was known for supplying this fantasy. And while most shunga art depicts heterosexual couples, many works depicted male-on-male intimacy. Shunga helped inspire more modern forms of Japanese art, including hentai, which is pornography depicted in anime and manga.

Service remembers Sept. 11 victims, soldiers

But earlier this year, one of the local government departments in charge of such facilities in Xinjiang's Hotan prefecture made several purchases that had little to do with education: 2,768 police batons, 550 electric cattle prods, 1,367 pairs of handcuffs, and 2,792 cans of pepper spray.

The shopping list was among over a thousand procurement requests made by local governments in the Xinjiang region since early 2017 related to the construction and management of a sprawling system of "vocational education and training centres".

The facilities have come under international scrutiny, with rights activists describing them as


governments in predominantly Uighur southern Xinjiang ordered to speed up the construction of "concentrated educational transformation centres for focus groups" -- a euphemism that includes the religious, the poor, the uneducated, and virtually all men of military age.

Shortly after, Xinjiang's regional government issued regulations on managing "religious extremism".

Extremists could be hiding anywhere, officials warned, instructing cadres to be on the lookout for 25 illegal religious activities and 75 signs of extremism, including such seemingly innocuous activities as quitting smoking or buying a tent.

"Detain those who should be detained to the greatest extent possible", cadres were told.

Detentions surged, catching local governments unprepared.

In 2017, spending by justice bureaus throughout Xinjiang exploded, driven largely by huge outlays for building and running vocational centres.

The offices spent nearly three billion yuan ($432 million)police uniforms, riot shields and helmets, pepper spray, tear gas, net guns, stun guns, electrified batons, billy clubs, spears, handcuffs and spiked clubs known as "wolf's teeth".

At least one centre requested "tiger chairs", a device used by Chinese police to restrain interrogation subjects.

Non-lethal weapons, it said, were important for "reducing the possibility of accidental injury in some situations where it is not necessary to use standard firearms".

service management bureaus" were set up, headed by officials experienced in running prisons and detention centres, according to local government websites.

Students would be tested on their knowledge of Mandarin and propaganda on a weekly, monthly and "seasonal" basis, and write regular "self-criticisms", one bureau wrote in a memo.

They would spend their days "shouting slogans, singing red songs and memorising the Three Character Classic", it said, referring to an ancient Confucian text.

Their files lodged in a centralised database, students were sorted into categories based on their offences and levels of accomplishment.

Criminals who had completed a prison sentence were released directly into the centres, under the principle of "putting untrustworthy people in a trustworthy place".

Students who performed well would be allowed to call their families or even visit them inspecial rooms at the centres.

Officials were ordered to regularly visit students' families at home to give them "anti-extremism" lessons and check for signs of anger that could harden into opposition to the Communist Party.

The new bureaus also ensured "absolute security" against "troublemaking" in the centres, including preventing "escapes", one local management bureau wrote in a breakdown of its duties.

In addition to ex-prisoners and those charged with religious extremism, local governments were also ordered to ensure that at least one member of each household received vocational education for a minimum of one to three months -- a measure ostensibly aimed at alleviating poverty in the region of 24 million.

While China has rejected estimates that upwards of one million are held in the centres, tender documents hint at huge numbers.

Dine Coatrack

After studying sculpture at the Rhode Island School of Design, and furniture at the Royal College of Art in London, Nick Dine became fascinated with how people interact with interior spaces. "I began building stores and residences for clients like Calypso, Starwood Hotels and Stussy," he says. Those experiences led to designing other kinds of objects, like the Dine Coatrack (2011) he created for us. The first inspiration for this piece was the English "Hall Tree," a 19th-century piece of furniture for storing coats, canes, umbrellas, boots and such. The second inspiration has having a family. "The need for this piece arose in my own life as we needed a place to embark and disembark from the first and last place in the house," says Dine. Assembly(GOIs) programme since 2004[@ref16][@ref17].

On completion of the TORS, a single-lumen airway was replaced with a double-lumen and a paravertebral block inserted, taking approximately 20 minutes. During this time, drapes on the robot were changed, scrub nurses replaced and thoracic robotic instruments prepared. The thoracic team then performed a robotic right middle and lower bilobectomy and full lymph node dissection in 5 hours. Video 2 demonstrates the key steps of this procedure.

The patient was extubated and transferred to the critical care unit (CCU). Nasogastric (NG) feed was commenced, but with quick progression to a soft diet,case \[[@ref8]\]. Additionally, the TORS required a single-lumen airway, while the RATS required a larger double-lumen airway for one-lung ventilation. The decision was made to start with the TORS. This entailed the risk of potential subsequent difficulty inserting the required larger airway, due to bleeding and oedema. However, starting with the thoracic procedure would have risked dependent oedema from the patient lying on his side. The TORS necessitated awake nasal fibre-optic intubation because of the patient's relatively large body habitus, tumour size, and to ensure that the endotracheal tube was clear of the operating field.

Consideration was also given to antisepsis, given that we started with a clean-contaminated transoral procedure, which was followed by a thoracic approach. Hence, drapes on the robot were changed, a new scrub team deployed,


Autofluorescence of the crystalline lens in diabetes.
Lenticular autofluorescence in a diabetic population was quantitated by scanning ocular fluorophotometry. Measurements were made through the lens along the optical axis. The profile of the scan from front to rear was characterized by anterior and posterior juxtacortical peaks and a central plateau. Maximum fluorescence values were compared with those of nondiabetic control subjects. Fluorescence increased linearly with age in both populations, but was significantly higher in the diabetic population of all ages. Posterior to anterior fluorescence peak ratios decreased as a parabolic function of age in both populations, but peak ratios were lower in the diabetic population. We conclude that in vivo measurements of lens autofluorescence correlate with premature lenticular senescence in diabetes.planned.

Johnny Depp Inks Development Deal With Cryptocurrency Platform

The deal is with TaTaTu, a newly formed platform founded by Andrea Iervolino, who co-runs AMBI Media Group.

Johnny Depp is teaming up with TaTaTu, a cryptocurrency-centric social entertainment platform run by entrepreneur Andrea Iervolino.

The pact calls for the two sides to develop and produce film and digital content together, with Depp working via his Infinitum Nihil production banner. Iervolino, who continues to run AMBI Media Group with Monica Bacardi, will work via his recently launched venture.

The partnership formalizes and moves forward a relationship between the two men that began with Waiting for the Barbarians, the adaptation of the J.M.

One key purpose of the vent flow rate is to provide sufficient CO2 washout from the mask. It is advisable to control the flow rate from the mask in order to provide constant known characteristics to the flow generator for prediction of pressure, flow and leakage from the cushion of the mask. Excessive leakage from the swivel elbow may also lead to noise and disturbance to the patient.

Sugarcane average annual yields in Brazil, world's largest producer, range from 80 to 120 tons/ha. Yet, the productivity potential of 300 tons of biomass per hectare has been suggested. Alexander, THE ENERGY CANE ALTERNATIVE (Elsevier, 1985)
The utilization of biomass has been the subject of strong interest recently, particularly with respect to the efforts to develop methods to produce alternate fuels that use non-starch, non-food-related biomass, such as trees, grasses and waste materials, which would expand the available resource base for sugars and would lower cost sources. In Brazil, sugarcane mills have developed technologies for large-scale sucrose fermentation for producing fuel ethanol. In the 2006/2007 crop, approximately 18 billion liters of sugarcane-derived ethanol were produced. In addition to providing


a renewable source of fuel, sugarcane-based fuel provides a means for reducing CO2 emissions.
Over the centuries, sugarcane was cultivated almost solely as a source of sucrose, which accumulates at high concentrations in the stem internodes. The sucrose then is extracted and purified in large mill factories, and is used as a raw material in food industries.
While sugarcane is photosynthetically efficient, the average productivity of commercial sugarcane plantations around the world is limited by the highly polyploid nature of the sugarcane genome, which renders sugarcane not amenable to most of the breeding techniques developed for diploid species. Because traditional breeding programs have provided limited success in producing high-yielding plants, cultivated sugarcane varieties are clones derived from interspecific crosses between Saccharum officinarum with its relatives, most often S. spontaneum butlook at who Detroit should sign at linebacker before things get ugly.

AJ Hawk

Former foe, now friend. AJ Hawk has been in the league since 2006, playing for Green Bay for nine years before leaving and playing for the Cincinnati Bengals last season. He was one of the best linebackers in the league with him and teammate Clay Matthews knocking people out. In his career, Hawk has 644 tackles, 20 sacks, 33 pass deflections, nine interceptions, five fumble recoveries and four forced fumbles. He had his worst year ever last season in Cincinnati, starting in only 11 games and getting only 16 tackles and one sack. While Hawk is getting on at 32 years old, he could come in as a useful veteran presence in a unit that badly


needs some help.

Danny Lansanah

Another veteran at 31 years old that could help Detroit is Danny Lansanah. He was on the Detroit Lions practice squad in 2009 and would be a good fit to bring back. He has only been in the league for four seasons, he was signed as an undrafted free agent in 2008 but didn’t come back until 2013 and started for the Bucs in 2014. He has 89 tackles, two and a half sacks, three interceptions and one forced fumble. Lansanah is a better coverage linebacker, which is something Detroit needs right now. He could help at the outside and contribute day one. He won’t be an all-star at the linebacker spot, but it sounds a lot better than having Brandon Copeland out there.

As the years passed Dougal landed in Grand County, and the rest is history.

Dougal’s first restaurant was in Grand lake, Voltaires, an upscale dining establishment at the eastend of what used to be the round room on Grand Avenue. He along with Ralph Uglow managed the restaurant at the Grand Lake Lodge after it was refurbished from a fire in the 70s. Soon after, an opportunity presented it’s self to purchase The Mountain Inn restaurant in Grand Lake where Dougal really planted his roots in the community. Dougal was involved in everything from the Rocky Mountain Repertory Theater Board, to organizing morning aerobic classes at the Lariat Saloon.

After several years in Grand Lake, Dougal made the move to Winter Park’s Sliverado II opening his restaurant in lower level of the condo complex. Moving to the east end of the valley opened him up to Winter Park’s handicap program and the Sunshine Kids. His huge heart


found a love and passion in these kids, and to those who so generously gave of their time to make dreams come true. He was instrumental in the birth of the “Shinning Stars Foundation” his dedication to the Shinning Stars lives on in Denver. Physically, heartfelt, and monetarily, Dougal gave to everyone he met.

In the mid ‘90s, Dougal opened Dougal’s Catering Service in Denver. Becoming well-known in the Denver Community for fantastic events... catering and donating food, Dougal became personally involved with several nonprofit organizations including Channel 6, Courage Classic, Rocky Mountain PBS, Denver Kids, Women’s Bean Project, Angel Hearts, Urban Peaks, and Shining Stars Foundation. Dougal served on the Colorado Restaurant Board, was a past president of the International Caterers Association, and a Rotarian.

From 1951 until January 1956, taxpayer worked for various Boise electrical contractors to which he had been assigned by the union.  On the termination of each job he went to the union for reassignment and in February, 1956, he was assigned to a job with Morrison-Knudsen Co.  (referred to as M-K), the prime contractor on the Brownlee Dam located on the Snake River, about 136 miles northwest of Boise.

At the time taxpayer entered into said employment there was no suitable place at the damsite for his family to reside.  His family therefore moved into the home of Mrs. Mathews' parents in Nampa, Idaho.  Taxpayer moved


into the company barracks at the Brownlee Dam site, spending weekends with his family in Nampa.

After residing in the barracks for about a month taxpayer moved a trailer house, which he owned, to Richland, Oregon, situate about twenty-two miles from his place of employment.  His family resided with him there.  In April, 1956, M-K completed a trailer park at Brownlee and taxpayer moved his trailer and family there.

M-K's contract with the union expired and taxpayer's employment terminated on February 12, 1957.  Taxpayer was then assigned by the union to a job in Denver, Colorado, where he worked until March 12, 1957.2  The union then called him back to Boise and again assigned him to work at the Brownlee Dam, this time for Gem StateElectric Co., a subcontractor on the dam.  His job with Gem State lasted until March 8, 1958.  Gem State's contract with M-K ended at that time, and taxpayer was assigned to Kehne-Crabtree Electric Co., another sub-contractor at the dam.  He was in Kehne-Crabtree's employ at Brownlee until the completion of the dam, except for a period of three weeks in June, 1959, when Kehne-Crabtree sent him to Pierre, South Dakota.

During the period that taxpayer and his family resided in his trailer house at the dam site they usually returned to Nampa to spend weekends at the home of Mrs. Mathews' parents.  Taxpayer was sometimes required to work on weekends, and when he did his wife often went to Nampa by herself, staying for two,

Barcelona maintained their 100% record in La Liga on Saturday night with a memorable 3-2 win against Sevilla at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan. David Villa scored in injury time after Cesc Fabregas netted a brace to give Barcelona a dramatic 3-2 comeback win against 10-man Sevilla on Saturday, equaling the Spanish pacesetter's best league start ever with six straight wins.

Winger Piotr Trochowski put the home side in front firing home in the 26th minute before Spanish striker Negredo doubled the lead in the 48th minute -- executing a delightful chip over the onrushing Victor Valdes after being played in by Gary Medel.

A Barca fightback looked unlikely, but was given momentum five minutes later when Cesc Fabregas fired home a left-foot drive. Tito Vilanova's sidewere in serious danger of dropping their first points of the campaign when Sevilla went 2-0 up at their Sánchez Pizjuan stadium through Piotr Trochowski and Alvaro Negredo.

It proved a pivotal point in the game. Barcelona, aided by substitute's Thiago and Villa, surged forward in search of an equalizer which eventually arrived from the boot of Fabregas who calmly slotted home under Andres Palop after Lionel Messi had played him in. Sevilla were not helped by the 72nd-minute dismissal of Gary Medel following a clash with Fabregas, with Barca's final two goals coming while the hosts were attempting to hold on.

The stage was set for Villa, only recently returned from a broken leg, and Spain's record scorer ran through deep into added time and sent a left-foot shot

first occurred at 5 :00 p.m. in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. The second, the subject of this

murder case, occurred around 8:00 p.m. in Spokane. The disguise, method of operation,

and timing linked the two crimes but it was not until years later that DNA linked Mr.

Gibson as a suspect. The court at a later bench trialleamed, and generally found, the

following facts.

       In Coeur d' Alene, Teresa Benner was closing Kid's Fair, the store she owned with

her husband, Steve Benner, when a man wearing the disguise briskly walked through the

doors, displayed a small, silver handgun, and said, "'You are being robbed.'" Clerk's

Papers (CP) at 319. The man ordered Ms.recovered a fingerprint from the handcuffs but it did not match Mr. Gibson.

The robber was not then apprehended.

       In Spokane, a man wearing the disguise entered Cole's Furniture and stated,

'''This is a stickup. '" CP at 322. He displayed a small, silver handgun and demanded

cash, credit cards, and PIN numbers. Michele Cole retrieved $18 from her purse and

handed it to her husband, Brian Cole, who handed it to the robber. The robber ordered

the Coles to the back of the store. Ms. Cole suffers from multiple sclerosis and drove her

scooter toward the back. Mr. Cole then asked, "'You wouldn't hurt a handicapped lady,

would you?'" Id. The robber responded, "'I might.'" Id. Before reaching the back of

the store, Ms. Cole heard a ruckus and


a gunshot. When she turned around, she saw her

husband and the intruder struggling and crashing into furniture. Blood stained Mr. Cole's

back. The intruder fired a second shot, hitting Mr. Cole in the head and fled. The Coles

called 911. Mr. Cole died due to his injuries.

       At the crime scene, police found the robber's sunglasses, the black baseball cap,

and a clump of fibers from the fake beard. Ms. Cole described the robber as "clean-

shaven with a fake beard and a thin face, 5'8", thin, about 30 years old." CP at 324. By

chance, Heather Bender stopped her car at a well lit intersection directly in front of

Cole's and saw a man wearing the disguise pass about 10 feet in front of her car and

makeas the robber. Kathy Ward was unable to positively identify anyone.

Police later cleared Mr. Knuttgen of involvement.

      Also in 1993, Detective Henderson took the black hat to Washington, D.C. The

television show, "America's Most Wanted," used the hat to reenact the robbery. Three

people handled the hat: Detective Henderson, producer John Walsh, and actor, Trevor St.

John, each unintentionally causing DNA contamination.

      In April 2004, Detective Henderson submitted the hat, along with the sunglasses

found at the scene, to the Washington State Patrol Crime Lab (WSPCL). The crime lab

forensic specialist James Currie analyzed the hat for DNA. Specialist Currie

inconclusively found DNA from at least three people.

      In 2007, Spokane County Detective Lyle Johnston assumed responsibility for the

to analyze the hat collected from Cole's Furniture. The lab found Mr. Gibson potentially

contributed his DNA to the hat. But, because the hat contained at least three DNA

contributors, without more, one out of every two people in the United States could have

contributed DNA to the hat.

       Detective Johnston reviewed Mr. Gibson's file and learned he had not previously

been contacted nor considered a suspect. Detective Johnston checked the National Crime

Information Center (NCIC) records. The NCIC reported that the Federal Bureau of

Investigation (FBI) had arrested Mr. Gibson in 1994 for bank robbery. The FBI briefed

Detective Johnston on Mr. Gibson's bank robbing operation. His usual bank robbing

method, according to Special Agent Frank Harrill, included wearing a hat, beard, and

trench coat as a disguise.
