It is a hell of a Halloween for everyone this year! Even animals are running in a frenzy to hide from the spooky characters in the White House.

Before Donald Trump, the Oval Office represented a symbol of pride, a symbol of power, strength and determination. To become the occupant of the Oval Office was the ultimate dream for most politicians.

Enter the 45th occupant of the Oval Office!

Donald Trump, Clown Headmaster, has transformed the Oval Office into a Horror Shop of Clowns. Every day, the lead clown Sarah Huckabee-Sanders puts on a clown show for an audience which acts much


like children, except on a few occasions when one would challenge the lead clown to give a treat instead of a trick. Since Sarah has assumed the post of White House Press Secretary, she has gone unchallenged most the time by the Press Corpse (not a typo) which has failed to do the job. Because most WH Press correspondents are more concerned about securing their seats in the White House than to expose the little horror shop in the daily clowning by Sarah Huckabee Sanders, they too contribute to the spooky environment.

No longer is the United States regarded as the leader in the world stage; the White House is now compared to a Clown Shop across the world. What can be scarier? And the Clown Headmaster Donald Trumpreporter asked the president question related to the four green berets killed in Niger, Mr. Trump who had kept silent both publicly and without reaching to the families of the fallen soldiers, immediately placed called to those families. But instead of offering moral support, he told the widow of one of the soldiers “he knew what he signed up for”.

What a jerk of a president! What a scum bag of a human being! What a moron!

And he wasn’t done spooking the country.

He delegated another scary character, John Kelly the White House Chief of Staff to do some more clowning around. Previously considered one of the few “untainted” characters, Mr. Kelly not only put a clown show never before seen but he also revealed to us all that he


was wearing a mask like the others; he removed it to give us a peek just in time for the Halloween. Mr. Kelly did not just defend Donald Trump for his outrageous comments to the families of the fallen soldiers, he also went out of his way to smear the Congresswoman Frederica Wilson by lying, a lie which was immediately debunked by many news networks. In his clown show, Mr. Kelly made it clear that he too belongs spirit and soul to the Horror Shop led by Clown Headmaster Donald Trump.

That latest development is one grim reminder that Halloween is one long 4-year of spooky characters. The Clown Show has just begun.

Chapter 8

The thick glass double doors flung open with excessive force, sending a gust of lung-twistingly cold air and a few lost, lonely snowflakes into the pleasant warmth of the school building, as Frank burst through them eagerly. He wanted to see Gerard. He had to see Gerard. He had to make sure that he was okay, and comfort him and assure him that everything would be alright. It was all he’d thought about all day, his mind swirling with thoughts of the only person he cared about at the moment, unable to concentrate in class or even listen to music, which was what he normally did, day and night. Forgetting his own health, he


didn’t even bother zipping up his jacket, putting on his hat or even his beloved skeleton gloves. It was all about Gerard right now…

Bam! Frank’s heart leapt up to his throat and, unsure of where the snowball, which had just flown right past his face and disintegrated
In a powerful collision with the brick wall to his right, had come from, he spun around, giving everyone around him the ‘I’m-going-to-fucking-kill-you’ look as he did so. His eyes remained fixed on one particular group of people from the second he spotted them, chuckling in front of the school doors. It was them. The same guys who had just possibly ruined Gerard’s life earlier that morning. Their sick faces were twisted with hysterical laughter – most of which was faked, ofcourse – their square jaws hanging wide open as they attempted to mock Frank’s surprise. There was really no point in getting involved, even if they were the biggest assholes on the planet. Rolling his eyes, he spun around on his heel, ready to continue his journey to Gerard’s house when… Bam! This one collided painfully with his ear, sending darts of shooting pain through his skull. More half-faked laughter followed as Frank gritted his teeth, waiting for the ringing in his ear to stop – or quiet down at least – before spinning around once more to face the jocks, who were now standing a lot closer, their laughter fading out slowly, disappearing into the sharp, thin air.

“What do you want from me?” He sighed, doing his


He snapped, a wave of shock running through his body as he realized what he had just said. The laughter ceased, and was replaced with a suffocating silence and fierce glares from all the guys.

“What did you say to me?” The tension rose rapidly as the team captain breathed his words, letting them blend into the polluted Belleville air.

Terror.

The silence that followed was one that would be hard to forget. The looming gaze of over a dozen eyes made Frank realize just how small and vulnerable he was, his arms and legs unusually skinny, the lack of protein in his diet meaning that there wasn’t much muscle for him to defend himself with. Feeling a cold chill run down his back, he made his final decision.

Run.

Breaking into asprint, Frank felt a tug on the back of his hoodie. He still continued running for several seconds, before being harshly pulled backwards by a pair of massive, meaty hands. His back slammed against the brick wall, screwing his eyes shut in pain. Looking up, he saw that the team had him surrounded, pinned against the wall, with absolutely no way of escaping. Crap.

“So what really happened this morning, freak?” Came a faint Irish accent from the back of the group. Frank had recognized the voice as the one that belonged to one of the less threatening team members. Well, the guy may have been less threatening, but he could still beat Frank to a pulp. Anybody could beat vegetarian, lactose intolerant, four foot nine, skinny little Frank


grunt escape his trembling lips as the two powerful hands pulled him a few inches away from the wall, then let go and gave his shoulders a powerful push, sending him back onto the wall as his back slammed against it with an audible thud once more.

He slid slowly to the ground. Fuck, he thought, screwing his eyes shut for a brief moment. When he opened them again, he expected to see them turning away, walking home – or wherever it is they go - , leaving him to gather his thoughts and sit in the snow so pure it could make any place look peaceful and safe, even Belleville, and mask the hatred and fear that radiated from this lost town. The jocks, however, stayed put, blockingFrank’s only escape route. They stood in the same position: arms crossed, leaning back slightly, with the same smirks still plastered onto their amused faces. Frank’s bony, bare hands sank deep into the snow, as his large, innocent eyes peered out from behind his jet-black, tangled fringe. His lips, purple from the cold, were parted slightly with what resembled shock or fear – or both. He jumped to his feet, stumbling a little as his hands found the brick wall and helped to lift his weight from the soggy snow.

“C-c-can I get t-through?” His lower lip trembled as the shaky words quietly brushed past it, his voice full of uncertainty and something else – anger? He was now shaking violently with no jacket to protect him from the


boy jumped at the larger guy’s tone, immediately obeying his command and setting off in the direction of his home after picking his battered schoolbag up off the ground, where it lay, soaked. It was unreal how much he hated these guys. They couldn’t be more stereotypical if they tried, he thought, digging his heels into the snow to avoid slipping and falling. He was right. They were literally the most stereotypical jocks you could find, with their square jaws, muscles bigger than their uneducated brains and that way of talking that only they could master. They were the ones that most of the girls in school wanted, for some reason. Not that Frank cared, of course. They were the ones who took the lunch money of everyand at the moment Frank was on the end too, only it was the opposite end. That is if Gerard hadn’t taken his place at the very bottom of the High School Food Chain after today’s events. Now he had to comfort Gerard. But he couldn’t. They were two steps behind him.

*

Gerard sat cross legged on his unmade bed with a sketch pad in front of him and a 2B pencil in his hand. He had no idea what to draw. This wasn’t normal; he always had an idea of what to draw. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a small plastic object, glinting in the few rays of sunlight which managed to break through the small gap in the curtains. A pen. Reaching over


eyes shifted from the notebook, where words had spilled from his hand onto two pages, and glanced up at the tiny gap between the stained, old curtains. He thought about Frank, and how hard it must be to walk in this weather. The wind had picked up and temperatures dropped drastically in the last ten minutes, which would have been a shock to anyone walking – or even driving – home from school. Especially short, skinny, weak Frankie; the wind could take him away. But he would be here soon, and everything would be okay again. Gerard would offer him a hot beverage, maybe with a splash of something slightly stronger to help him warm up, and lend him spare clothes, letting the ones he was currently wearingdrop from his shoulders as he got to his feet and made his way over to the fireplace. There was no money for coal. There hadn’t been any money for coal since everything started. The only coal in the house consisted of the few sticks of charcoal he used for drawing. But there was firewood. Okay, so it was stolen from the neighbors, but it was still firewood. And it was dry, unlike the soaked, snowy ground outside, where he stole it from just last week, after dark. A lot went on after dark in this house, and most of it wasn’t good. Nothing in his life – except for Frank and art – was good.

Deep in thought, Gerard gazed as the fireplace as a single spark from


his cheap, blue lighter became an ochre flame and licked the stacked firewood, causing it to, as if in slow motion, erupt with amber and aureolin flames, like arms that reached up towards freedom, like tiny daggers up to heaven. Daggers made of copper and gold. He watched with sad yet hopeful eyes as the blaze grew slowly. He hoped that one day his world would be as bright as the embers rising before his eyes. He hoped that one day his mother would greet him with a hug as warm as the waves of heat smothering his face. And he hoped that one day he would believe that this was possible. Because he knew that it wasn’t.

*

Frank continued to tread through the snow, his small feet sinkinghome, let alone hanging around outside my house for ages, just seems like the kind of thing someone who just escaped from a mental asylum would do!” With that, Frank gave them one more smirk, making sure they saw it, then turned around and, once inside his house, slammed the front door. Panting like a little dog, Frank let his small body slump against the door, frantically searching for the lock. It only took about three seconds for him to decide to spin around and peek out through the peep hole.

They were all stood outside, in the exact same position they were in when Frank slammed the door, escaping into the safety of his home. Hands in pockets, weight shifted onto one leg, expressions so puzzled you might


as well draw jigsaw pieces onto them with a Sharpie. Some of them had their mouth slightly ajar as they stared pointlessly at the old, green, wooden door with peeling paint and a rusty handle. For whatever reason, this made Frank incredibly proud. Proud of himself. A smile spread over his face, making him feel like the world was peaceful, hunger was ended, there was no such thing as broken families and all bullies and dickheads had magically vanished from the planet. He felt as if, for once, the sun had shone on Belleville, exposing all evil and evaporating it into the atmosphere. It was as if the blizzard outside, angry parents or complicated teenage problems never even existed; as if it was all a figment of hisat times.

Smith said, "We'll have to kill her too. And that other woman--Sue Connaught, that he was thinking of."

No point in keeping up useless concealment. Barton touched Melissa's mind. They know. Listen. If they use their secret wave length, tell me instantly.

"Immediately is pretty fast," Vargan said.

"Thoughts are fast."

"All right. You're underestimating us. Faxe was the newest of our band; he wasn't fast-minded, and he was a push-over for you. Our brains are highly trained and faster than yours." That was a guess; he couldn't know, really. Egotism influenced him.

"Do you think," Barton said, "that you can get away with whatever you're trying to do?"

"Yes," Smith said, in his mind a blazing, fanatical conviction that glared like a shining light. "We must."

"All right. What are you trying to


you. We'll go down too, and you'll have the satisfaction of knowing that you've destroyed the entire species through your crazy egotism."

"I'm not offended," Callahan said. "I've always contended that your group was a failure of the mutation. We are the true supermen-unafraid to take our place in the universe, whereas you're content to live on the crumbs the humans drop from the table."

"Callahan," McNey said suddenly, "this is suicidal. We can't--"

Barton sprang out of his chair and stood straddle-legged, glowering furiously. "Darryl! Don't beg the swine! There's a limit to what I'll stand!"

"Please," McNey said, feeling very helpless and impotent. "We've got to remember that we're not supermen, either."

"No compromise," Barton snapped. "There can't be any appeasement with those wolves. Wolves-hyenas!"

"There'll be no compromise," Callahan said. Heand temperament. His light-red curls were no more than a down on his well-shaped head.

Cody looked at Lucy. "How do you feel?" he heard himself asking inanely.

Without moving a muscle she let her eyes roll sidewise so that she was looking at him from under her half-closed lids, a stony, suffering, hating look. An empty water-glass stood on the bed table within reach of her lax hand. Cody stepped forward, unstopped the bottle and poured a steady amber stream into the glass. Two inches, three. She was not going to say when. He stopped at three and replaced the bottle.

"You don't have to ask how anybody feels," Lucy said in a dull voice.

"I'm not reading you, Lucy."

She shrugged against the bedspread. "You say."

Looking again at the sleeping baby,

Hurry!

He ran toward a group of long, low buildings. He knew the way; he had seen it in Home's mind. He ran toward one of the buildings, thrust open the door, and was in the laboratory.

A gaunt, gray-haired man in a stained smock turned to stare at him. It was Pomerance; no telepath can ever be mistaken on a question of identity. It was Pomerance--and as Cody realized that, he also realized that two blocks away, in the Copter Vane Eatery, Jasper Home had stirred, wakened, and reached out in sudden panic to touch Pomerance's mind.

Instantly Cody was racing down the length of the long laboratory. Beyond Pomerance were floor-length windows opening on hot sunlight, blue sky, and parched brown grass. If they could reach thematching his keen mind against the brute savagery of tiger and python. Had that solution not been reached, Barton might not have been alive now. For the non-Baldies were still wary, still intolerant.

Yet he was no extrovert; he could not be. Inevitably he grew tired of the ceaseless symphony of thought that rolled like a living tide even in the deserts and the seas. Erecting a mental barrier wasn't enough; behind that protective wall beat the torrents of thought, and they were sensed. Only in the upper air was there escape for a while.

The plane lifted, rocking a little in the wind. Beneath Barton the lake was dime-sized and dime-colored. Around its borders grew, more thickly than it had fifty years before, the Limberlost forests, a swampy wilderness


She was dangerous. She, more than any of the others, perhaps, was the guiding spirit of the Sequoia paranoids. Not in the sense of planned action, no. But she ignited, like a flame. She is a born leader. And there were uncomfortably many paranoids here now. They had infiltrated-superficially with good reason, on jobs or errands or vacations; but the town was crammed with them, comparatively speaking. The nontelepaths still outnumbered both Baldies and paranoids as they did on a larger scale all over the world--

Harouel, a professor emeritus of the History of Law at the University of Paris, criticizes the members of the Conseil d’Etat for their decision, which he says reflects their failure to take into account the difficult period that France is now going through. In the present circumstances, writes Harouel, the “jurisprudential liberalism”’ that might have been acceptable in relatively peaceful times can no longer be justified, given what France is enduring.

I have freely translated his words:

Furthermore, the Conseil d’Etat failed


to take into account the fact that France is now engaged in a clash of civilizations, that just in the past year has cost it hundreds of deaths on its own territory, and which made it necessary to maintain the State of Emergency. “Islamism” is now making war on France, and there is no real boundary-line between Islam and Islamism.

The Conseil d’Etat failed to take into account the shock felt by the French people on seeing burkinis deliberately appearing on the beaches so soon after terrible massacres had been committed in France by Muslims acting in the name of their god. So soon after the carnage on the promenade in Nice and the slitting of the throat of a priest while he was fulfilling his priestly duties, suchHurricane Joaquin strengthened in the Atlantic on Wednesday and is expected to become a major hurricane, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said, although not all forecast models agreed on whether it would make landfall in the United States.

The warnings came as the northeastern United States faced a pounding rainstorm that flooded streets and snarled travel from Washington to Boston.

Joaquin, the third hurricane of the 2015 Atlantic season, intensified into a Category 2 on a scale of 1 through 5, with maximum sustained winds of 105 miles per hour (165 kph), by Wednesday night. It was about 80 miles (125 km) east-northeast of the central Bahamas and continues to strengthen, the center said.

5 is the most severe.

A complicated atmospheric pattern has made Joaquin particularly difficult to track, according to Weather Channel forecasters, who said it was too soon to determine what impact Joaquin could have on the U.S. East Coast starting this weekend.

The last hurricane to make landfall in the continental United States was Arthur, which hit North Carolina as a Category 2 storm in July 2014, bringing high winds, driving rain and storm surges up the East Coast.

In October 2012, Sandy slammed into the New York metropolitan area, killing more than 120 people and causing some $70 billion in property damage, primarily in New York and New Jersey.

White House spokesman Joshua Earnest said the Federal Emergency Management Agency was monitoring the storm and preparing for a possible hit.

TAMPA — Some among us remember the fax machine, that monument to late 20th century office technology whose vogue peaked sometime before the crumbling of the Berlin Wall.

There may even be a fax machine tucked away in a quiet corner of your office, lighting up every few days as it receives a news release about a local furniture sale, its muted beeps like the gibbering of an old soldier recounting past campaigns to an empty room.

While it might be obsolescent in the era of digital communication, the fax machine is poised to play an unlikely central role in a high-stakes lawsuit against the owners of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in federal court.

A Gainesville business, exasperated by faxed ads for Buccaneers tickets several years ago, filed a lawsuit inorder, insofar as appealed from, denied those branches of the plaintiff's motion which were to hold the defendant in contempt and to direct the defendant to maintain a whole life insurance policy during the pendency of the action.
ORDERED that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.
In this action for a divorce and ancillary relief, the plaintiff served a summons with notice accompanied by the "automatic orders" of Domestic Relations Law § 236(B)(2)(b), which require, inter alia, that both parties maintain existing life insurance policies in full force and effect. The plaintiff thereafter moved, among other things, to hold the defendant in civil and criminal contempt, alleging that she violated the automatic orders by ceasing to pay the premiums for his whole life insurance policy.

Canada is headed for conflicts of Oka-like intensity unless its political leaders commit to renewing the country’s relationship with Indigenous peoples, says the chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

The country is in the midst of a federal election triggered a little over two months after the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) released its historical report on Indian residential schools. The report caused a nation-wide reaction and calls from all corners on the need to fix the long neglected relationship with the Indigenous population that finds itself within Canada’s borders.

Mid-way through the current federal campaign, the TRC report and its recommendations have nearly been forgotten in the ongoing discourse about the main challenges facing the country. The issue has not even merited a specific questionbetween Indian residential school survivors, Ottawa and the churches that operated the schools for over a century.

Thousands of children died at the school and many are still buried in unmarked graves that have been lost to memory.

The TRC issued a list of 94 recommendations in its report released this past June. The recommendations were meant as a road-map for Canada to finally fix the relationship. The Conservatives party has essentially rejected the recommendations, while the NDP and Liberal parties have accepted them all. Neither party, however, has yet presented a plan on how it would implement the recommendations.

Sinclair said the continued avoidance by the political class to take the issue head-on and the simmering tensions over resource projects is creating an environment that could produce serious confrontations.

Look! Transformer Mania hits Singapore!

Singaporeans were greeted by a surprising yet familiar sight earlier today as two iconic characters from popular entertainment franchise, TRANSFORMERS, took to the streets in their pre-Cybertron Convention 2012 tour of Singapore. Autobot leader Optimus Prime and his trusted brother-in-arms, Bumblebee, arrived early into Singapore and wasted no time in getting to know the Lion City, their home for the next three weeks.

Here for the Resorts World Sentosa Singapore Transformers Cybertron Con 2012 due to take place from 11 to 14 March, the two began their tour of Singapore ahead of the event's Southeast Asian debut with a visit to locations such as the Old Airport Road Food Centre, the market at Kallang Centre, Chinatown and even Raffles Place, stopping to

If you've watched any of CNN or Fox News' coverage of the George Zimmerman trial, you've probably encountered Frank Taaffe, Zimmerman's friend and his most visible defender. But you probably haven't seen his virulently racist Twitter account or heard his appearance on a white supremacist's podcast.

Mother Jones' Mariah Blake, however, has. It's not like you can't tell that Taaffe, who's been all over Fox News, CNN, HLN and even the New York Times, is a racist—watch the clip above, in which he describes affirmative action as slavery for "whitey" on Dr. Drew's HLN show—but it's nice to see the evidence really laid out:

A Mother Jones investigation has found that the 56-year-old New York native has a lengthy criminal record that includes charges of domesticTaylor Swift has taken to social media to tell fans that Scott Borchetta, her former label head at Big Machine Records, and his new partner Scooter Braun are trying to nix her plans for a retrospective performance at the American Music Awards, as well as denying the use of her recordings for a documentary she has only now revealed.

Swift made the surprising allegations in posts on her Instagram story, Facebook and Twitter — the latter under the caption: “Don’t know what else to do.”

Swift says in her posts that the Big Machine team told her she would be allowed the use of her old songs only if she agreed not to re-record them in the future — a non-starter for her, she says — and if she affirmed


Nocturna, Mistress of the Night is a stabilizing influence in his life; she becomes his surrogate mother and even adopts the young Todd. Catwoman would be a frequent guest star during this era as she wrestled with the role of hero and as a love interest for Batman which led to clashes with the boy feeling left out.

In the Alan Moore epic Superman Annual #11, "For the Man Who Has Everything", Batman and Todd join Wonder Woman at the Fortress of Solitude to celebrate Superman's birthday. They arrive only to find Superman incapacitated by a mysterious creature and Mongul there to battle the heroes. Todd as Robin saves Wonder Woman, Superman, and Batman from Mongul by unleashing Mongul's own hallucination-causing creature on the tyrant himself.

Todd also tackled thesome time, as he considers it his greatest failure. He keeps the second Robin's uniform on display in the Batcave as a reminder.

Return from the grave
Years later, while trying to discover the identity of a mysterious figure plotting against him, Batman discovers that Tim Drake, Jason's successor as Robin, has been kidnapped. He confronts the kidnapper, and is stunned to discover that he is apparently an adult Todd, standing at his own desecrated grave site. Batman subdues this mystery "Jason" and discovers that it is only Clayface impersonating Todd, concluding that "Jason's" greater physical age was to hide the flaws in Clayface's impersonation by allowing him to partially mimic Nightwing's combat skills. However, Todd's actual body is missing from its grave.

It is later revealed that Todd had indeed


combat skills on the street.

Talia took Todd in out of her love for Batman, while her father Ra's al Ghul was interested in the secret behind his resurrection. The League of Assassins tracked and eliminated everyone in Gotham who knew of Todd's resurrection to prevent Batman from finding out. They also interrogated Joker's henchmen who were with him during Todd's murder, in hopes to find out how the boy could have survived. Talia later restored Todd's health and memory by immersing him in a Lazarus Pit in which her father was also bathing and helped him escape the House of al Ghul. It is suggested by Ra's that the power of the pit resulted in Todd's mental instability. Ra's refers to Todd as a "curse" and a "pestilence"Friday, June 28, 2013

From 50 paise, she now earns Rs 200,000 a day.

She started her career 31 years ago as an entrepreneur, selling eateries from a mobile cart on the Marina beach amidst all odds -- battling a failed marriage, coping with her husband, a multiple addict, and taking care of two kids.

Today, she has overcome the hurdles and owns a chain of restaurants.

She married against the will of her parents. Unfortunately, the marriage failed but her parents never forgave her and she was on her own along with 2 children.

" I knew I should either succumb to the burden or fight; I decided to fight my lonely battle." she said.

She started selling pickles, squashes and jams she made


at home.

Eventually she started her own cart on Marine Drive, Mumbai. On the first she just sold one cup of coffee, making 50 paise the first day. But she never lost hope and earned as high as 25,000 rs a day.

One day the Slum Clearance Board gave her an offer to run the canteen at their office with a proper kitchen. The chairman met her during her morning walk. It was a huge success. Thereafter, she never looked back.

She suffered the second shock of her life in 2004 when she lost her daughter and son-in-law in a road accident. The ambulance refused to carry their dead bodies. Finally, somebody carried all the dead bodies in the boot of a car. She couldn't bear the scene and broke down.Beyond Aztlán: Reflections on the Chicanx Student Movement

This essay was written following the discussion at the MEChA 2018 National Conference surrounding Aztlán and the questions posed by alumni who heard about it afterwards. Footnotes are at the bottom of the essay. Though inconvenient, I recommend reading them as you read!

The concept of Aztlán, though an ancient concept rooted in Mexica¹ historical narratives, became popularized within the Chicanx² Power movement of the 60s with the publishing of the Plan Espiritual de Aztlán. Written in 1969 at Crusade for Justice’s First National Chicano Youth Liberation Conference in Denver, Colorado, the Plan articulated a path towards liberation for Chicanx people that has guided the Chicanx Power Movement for more than 50 years. Artists, writers, organizers, and members of the Chicanx movement


have reproduced and expanded the concept of Aztlán through countless poems, stories, songs, books, and visual art pieces. It was further established as central in the consolidation of separate student organizations into the one unified Movimiento Estudiantil Chicanx de Aztlán, which we are now a part of. Together, our many chapters form the Nation of Aztlán.

At the 2018 National MEChA Conference, a workshop was held titled “Beyond Aztlán: Situating Chicanx Struggle on Stolen Indigenous Land.” Members of the Alto Pacífico region (Washington, Idaho, Alaska, and Hawaii) shared their process and reasoning for removing Aztlán from their region’s name (formerly Alto Pacífico de Aztlán). Chapters from other regions who attended the two workshops took the conversation back to their regions during their respective Regional Resolution Circles and at leastone region (Tierra Mid de Aztlán) voted to remove Aztlán from their regional name. The next day, at the National Resolution Circle, a resolution was proposed to have each Region and Chapter discuss the concept of Aztlán, how it has and continues to shape our movement and its philosophies, and how it relates to the work that we do within the movement. The resolution was passed unanimously except for one abstention by a region that had only one chapter present and wished to consult with the other chapters of their region before voting. The resolution was not to drop Aztlán or change the name, but rather to begin the process of discussing the concept of Aztlán with our chapters and regions, and come back to next year’s National


nationalism?

We discussed some of these connections at the MEChA National Conference. First and most obvious, it is clear that the geographical region purported to be Aztlán, upon which the Chicanx nation was to be built, aligns with the portion of the US Southwest that was appropriated by the United States via the Mexican-American War.

umich.edu and thomaslegion.net

The lands ceded in the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, the Gadsen Purchase, and the illegal occupation of Texas, overlap with the Southwestern states of California, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas that make up the Califas, Centro Aztlán, and Tejaztlán regions of our national organization. This understanding of Aztlán, tying it directly to the land that was stolen, conquered or bought from Mexico by the United States, is a common onethe Plan, which calls for a national walk-out by all Chicanos: “September 16, on the birthdate of Mexican Independence.” As with most Enlightenment era anti-colonial revolutions in the Americas, the war for Mexican Independence was orchestrated by the elite of New Spain, who were largely white criollos as well as assimilated mestizos, who relied on the mobilization of Indigenous, Black, and mestizo/mulatto populations to fight in the revolutionary armies. But was the creation of Mexico a liberatory struggle for oppressed people within Mexico? While few of us would argue that the American war for independence from Britain was a decolonial struggle but rather a war to end the colonial relationship with Britain without altering the fundamental settler colonial relationship to the land, the creation of Mexico was accompanied


by a myth of shared national and mestizo identity that has hidden its settler nation-state nature. It’s important to point out that all nation-states are created by myth, whether a myth of divine creation or a myth of mestizaje.⁶

Guided by the work of José Vasconcelos, inventor of “la raza cósmica” that positioned mestizaje as the destined catalyst for a new society, the criollo and mestizo architects of the Mexican Revolution of 1910 sought to unite a racially stratified society of white, mestizo, Indigenous, and Black communities. In fact, they created the idealized mestizo identity at the expense of Chinese and Black Mexicans who did not fit into the racialization of mestizos.⁷ The influence of Vasconcelos and other advocates of mestizaje within the Chicanx movement is clear: we are“indigenismo.” Mestizaje has developed over time, from its original postracial formulation by Mexican and Chicano nationalists to Chicana mestizaje that emphasized hybridity and subjective experience (Centeno).

The early formulation of mestizaje by Mexican revolutionaries, while purporting to challenge the racial caste system that it replaced, actually romanticized and reified essentialist notions of race, turning mestizaje into a fixed and exclusionary category rather than a fluid inclusionary one (Centeno).

In Mexico following the War of Independence from Spain as well as the Mexican Revolution, mestizaje, as a formal and informal government policy of racial mixture, was used for the Europeanization of the Indigenous populations. The mixture was romanticized and celebrated, but it was the mixture with whiteness that positioned mestizaje above Indigeneity or Blackness.⁹ This is done at the same time,


ironically, as the romanticization of the imagined “Indian” figure central to the Mexican nationalist project through what Alberto refers to as Indigenismo.

Alberto provides us a clear discussion of Indigenismo in “Nations, Nationalisms, and Indígenas” and ties it back to the myth behind Mexican nationalism:

Indigenism was not a phenomenon exclusive to the Chicano movement. On the contrary, indigenism has a long history throughout Latin America, forged predominantly in the 1920s. Indigenismo in Mexico encompassed a range of governmental policies, educational reforms, land redistributions, artistic movements, intellectual movements, and racial frameworks instituted during the early twentieth century as a strategy to bring cohesion to the emerging nation. The multiple aims of indigenismo, as governmental policy as well as cultural production, facilitated the formation of a modern Mexican nation by creatingof any Indigenous tribe in the United States, spanning Utah, Arizona, Colorado, and New Mexico? Not to mention the tribes whose land extend beyond the geographical region of Aztlán, such as those who inhabit the area within our organization’s Alto Pacífico, Tierra Mid, and Este regions.

This brings us to one of the major points of the conversation surrounding Aztlán that was brought to the National Conference. How is our struggle accountable to the more than 566 recognized Indigenous nations and tribes¹⁴ within the US whose stolen land we occupy? Every social movement that occurs in the United States exists within the context of a settler colonial society. Tuck and Yang point out that many non-Indigenous communities and social movements participate in reoccupation of stolen Indigenous land, seeking access

Synopsis

The Power Rangers take the special message of the power of education to the airwaves. But, Zedd tries to stop the show by changing a TV camera into the evil Showbiz Monster.

Plot

As Aisha completes her report on the history of television, Ms. Appleby reminds the class that the Power Rangers will be appearing on television tomorrow to promote the power of education across the country. Adam is nervous about being in front of the camera, while Bulk and Skull are planning to unmask the Rangers on live TV and be famous. Meanwhile, Lord Zedd intends to create evil twins of the Power Rangers and put them on television to spread a much more malevolent message. When Goldar and his Z-Putties are quickly defeated by theRangers as they head for the television studio, Zedd is forced to abandon his plan due to lack of time.

On the set of The Harvey Garvey Show, host Harvey Garvey introduces the Power Rangers as the audience chants for their heroes to arrive. After some introduction, the heroes begin talking to the audience that being a Power Ranger requires not just physical strength, but the power of an educated mind. To demonstrate, Kimberly and Billy tell the tale of their early battle with Pudgy Pig and how they outwitted the monster. Backstage, Bulk orders Skull to drop a sandbag to distract the Rangers while he pulls off their helmets, but Skull pulls the wrong rope and nearly hits Bulk. They trade places and try again as the Rangers


teach Harvey how to do a jumping kick, only for Bulk to get hit by a bag of feathers.

Lord Zedd decides to ruin the show by creating the Showbiz Monster, and Zordon is forced to call the Rangers off the set so they can deal with the crisis. The heroes remind the audience to stay in school as they teleport away, just missing Bulk and Skull as they barge onto the set and tackle Harvey. In the park, Showbiz and a gang of Z-Putties are ready to start a fight scene, and Goldar is also present to deal with Tommy personally.

The Putties are dealt with, Goldar retreats, and the Thunder Megazord is summoned to destroy Showbiz. The next day at school, Ms. Appleby asks the class what theylearned from the Rangers and also shares a fax sent from Jason, Trini, and Zack in Switzerland. They agree that education is the key to world peace, a feeling which their fellow Rangers share.

Billy and Kimberly are the only two Rangers to tell the events of "Food Fight". This was an excellent use of continuity, as they were the only two Rangers in this episode who were involved in those events (and the sequel "A Pig Surprise", which wasn't mentioned in this episode anyway).

The scene of the audience yelling "We want the Power Rangers" was repeatedly used by Fox Kids for Power Playback commercials.

The piece of footage featuring the Rangers fighting Pudgy Pig still utilized the substitute voice actors for Jason, Zack and Trini, as Saban was not


willing to pay royalties to Austin St. John, Walter Jones and Thuy Trang by using the dialogue in it's original context. Furthermore, several of the lines replaced mentioned other Rangers by name, though the studio audience cannot see or hear the flashback, this would still be changed in Kim's recounting of the events.

Kim Strauss makes his first appearance in the Power Rangers franchise on camera as Harvey Garvey. He would later go on to voice Ninjor in Mighty Morphin's third season.

The score that plays when Skull accidentally drops a bag of feathers on Bulk is the same theme from the James Bond franchise.

This episode marks the first time a Zord battle takes place during a sunset.

General David Sarnoff, who is referred to as the father of television, isAfter surviving a remarkable 11 days in the Siberian taiga wilderness, a large region heavily inhabited by wolves and bears, three-year-old Karina Chikitova was rescued.

Rescuers allege that it was the little girl’s puppy that wound up saving the day. The dog had been by her side to keep her warm for a week or so until returning home and getting help. Initially, when it arrived in the village without her, Karina’s parents were distressed. But the loyal pup led search teams to her location in the south-west of the Sakha Republic.

“The girl aged three years and seven months survived by eating wild berries and drinking river water in territory roamed by wild bears and wolves,”reported The Siberian Times.

What are the three most important things you need to survive


in the wild? food, water and warmth. Karina knew this. To stay alive, she made herself a place to sleep in the long grasses, ate wild berries and drank water from the river.

Despite the potential dangers she faced, the only injuries Karina sustained were mosquito bites and scratches to her feet.

Once found, she was comforted and then taken to the hospital with her mother at her side.

LOS ANGELES — Jordin Canada came off the court with the UCLA women’s basketball team holding a 24-point lead over Creighton and less than four minutes separating the senior from her third straight Sweet 16 appearance in the NCAA Tournament.

The crowd saluted the stellar point guard, who was playing in her final game at Pauley Pavilion, with a standing ovation, thinking that it would be her last time coming off the storied court.

But 90 seconds later, Canada and fellow senior Monique Billings came back in, a gesture from head coach Cori Close to have all three seniors — Canada, Billings and guard Kelli Hayes — leave the court together oneKennedy Burke had 11 points and Lajahna Drummer added 10 in a total team effort that overwhelmed a Creighton team that had only two players make more than two field goals.

After Creighton (19-13) hit a 3-pointer on its opening possession, the Bruins went on a 13-0 run and shot 57.6 percent from the field in the first half. UCLA led by no less than 17 points in the second half, and the Bruins led by many as 28 as they dominated on both ends of the court.

UCLA forced 18 turnovers, tying a season high for Creighton, scoring 29 points off the miscues.

The London Clinical Psychology Residency Consortium was initially formed by a partnership of the London Health Sciences Centre, St. Joseph’s Health Care (London), Child and Parent Resource Institute (CPRI), and Vanier Children’s Services. That residency program had its first cohort of residents begin in 2008. The program expanded to include a new partnership with the Student Development Centre at Western University, and the first cohort of residents from this new five-member consortium began in September 2012. The London Clinical Psychology Residency Consortium was


first accredited as a Doctoral Internship Program in Clinical Psychology by the Canadian Psychological Association in 2009, and was recently re-accredited for a 7 year term, from 2013-14 to 2020-21. The next accreditation site visit is due in 2020-21.

At the London Clinical Psychology Residency Consortium we strive to have the most accurate and up-to-date information in our brochure, and we revise it every year. Nonetheless, changes can occur for many reasons beyond the residency's control, and no programme can guarantee to its residents that the staff and services listed in the brochure at the time of printing will be available throughout the full residency year. In a programme with as many sites, staff, and services as our consortium, some changes are bound to occur.

For Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, life at Old Trafford is tough. Sunday's 1-0 defeat to lowly Newcastle means it is just three wins out of 11 this season and their current league points tally of nine from their opening eight games is their worst-ever at this stage of a Premier League campaign, worse even than the 11 managed by David Moyes in the 2013-2014 season.

Where once fans rejoiced proudly in the fact of 'Ole at the wheel' - he won 32 points in his opening 12 Premier League games, the most of any manager in their first dozen games in the competition at a single club - United's boss now finds that same taunt flipped on its head, the subject of memes and gifs mocking his


seemingly directionless team.

On the pitch, Manchester United's league form since April 2019 has been terrible, with just 14 points from 15 games, which is only more than three other ever-present Premier League clubs in this period: Southampton (13), Brighton (12) and Watford (10). In comparison, rivals Liverpool - who they face next - have won 42 points since the start of April, three times as many as United, despite playing one game less.Thirty years after the Chicago Park District’s release from a U.S. Justice Department consent decree, the district still is tinged with racism, funneling more resources to parks in white communities of means while parks in poor black and Latino communities are neglected, according to a report released Wednesday.

The new report by Friends of the Parks, which found significant inequities in programming and capital investments correlating with race and income levels across the city, was issued as the district’s board of commissioners approved a budget for 2019.

Included in that budget was a $2.7 million increase in its contract with SmithGroupJJR, the company hired to oversee the South Shore and Jackson Park renovations that include a controversial new golf course near the site of the Obama Presidential Center.

The new report,


“State of the Parks,” is the first such comprehensive analysis of district spending in decades, by the same group that filed the 1982 discrimination lawsuit leading to the 1983 federal consent decree. The decree was dismissed in 1989.

“On the 35th anniversary of the consent decree which was put in place to remedy the Chicago Park District’s systemic discrimination against minority communities, Friends of the Parks’ analysis finds that the Chicago Park District again is balancing its budget on the backs of African-American and Latino communities,” said Friends of the Parks Board Member and former Chicago Park District Board of Commissioners President Maria Saldaña.

At the time of the accident, Matthew Hahn did not own a motor vehicle and resided with his parents in New York. Hahn's mother, Margurite Hahn, did own an automobile at the time of the accident which was insured by Boston Old Colony Insurance Company (Boston Old Colony).
Matthew Hahn filed a claim for no-fault basic loss benefits with Liberty Mutual and Boston Old Colony. Both claims were denied. Thereafter, Matthew Hahn instituted the instant action in assumpsit to recover no-fault benefits under the provisions of the Pennsylvania No-Fault Motor Vehicle Insurance Act, 40 P.S. § 1009.101 et seq. Specifically, Hahn sought theits own motion for judgment on the pleadings alleging that Liberty Mutual was the responsible insurer for no-fault benefits. At issue was whether Hahn was entitled to unlimited medical benefits as is provided under the Pennsylvania Act or whether he was limited to a maximum of $50,000.00 in medical benefits as provided under the New York Act. Following the submission of briefs and oral argument, the trial court en banc granted both motions holding that Liberty Mutual was the primary obligor to *333 Hahn for no-fault benefits. The trial court also held that while New York law applied in the instant case, Hahn was entitled by the New York Act to receive unlimited medical benefits.

In Ohio Casualty the victim was a Pennsylvania resident injured while a passenger on a bus involved in an accident in New York. The bus was owned by a Maryland corporation and insured under a no-fault policy issued in Maryland. The victim did own a automobile which was insured by a policy issued in Pennsylvania. After examining New York law the Ohio Casualty court concluded that the insurer of the bus was the primary obligor for the payment of first party no-fault benefits to the victim.
A similar situation exists in the instant case. Matthew Hahn was injured while driving in a rental vehicle insured by Liberty Mutual. While Hahn did not owna motor vehicle at the time of the accident he was covered as a relative under his mother's policy of no-fault insurance issued on her personal vehicle. Since coverage follows the vehicle and not the insured, Hahn then must first look to the insurer of the vehicle, Liberty Mutual, and not his mother's insurer, Boston Old Colony. Accordingly, this argument of Liberty Mutual is dismissed.
Liberty Mutual also contends that Hahn is covered under the Boston Old Colony policy because the language of its policy issued to the rental car agency excludes Hahn from the definition of a person eligible to collect benefits under the policy. Liberty Mutual contends that under its policy only an "eligible injured" is entitled to coverage. That term is defined in the policy as


for our review raised by both insurers involves an interpretation of Section 672(5) of the New York Comprehensive Automobile Insurance Reparations Act, or the New York No-Fault Act, N.Y.Consol.Stat., Title 27, § 672(5). While this issue has never been addressed by an appellate court of this Commonwealth the issue has been addressed in the New York state courts and the Pennsylvania federal courts and it is to those cases which we look for guidance.
In the instant case Matthew Hahn, a New York resident, was injured in an accident in Pennsylvania. In this situation Pennsylvania law clearly provides, as previously noted, that New York law would apply to determine the amount of benefits the victim would receive under no-fault. However, when we look to the New York No-Fault Actthe North Carolina driver found 40% negligent. On the basis of the above judgment the passenger demanded $15,000.00 from the insurer of the New York vehicle. The insurer refused to pay the full $15,000.00 arguing that it was only liable for the policy limits on the New York car or $10,000.00. The passenger contended that she was entitled to the $15,000.00 under Section 672(5) since the minimum amount of liability coverage in North Carolina was $15,000.00. The Rodriguez court agreed with the passenger's interpretation.
The Rodriguez court held that Section 672(5) clearly mandates the North Carolina minimum of liability coverage of $15,000.00 applied under the New York policy. The court found that when a New York insured vehicle is operated in another state the policy of New York insurance


Wierbinski is also a proper interpretation of Section 672(5).
In Wierbinski a New York domiciliary owned an automobile insured under a policy of no-fault insurance issued in New York. The New York domiciliary was subsequently injured in a one-car accident in Pennsylvania. After examining the New York No-Fault Act the Wierbinski court concluded that the only logical interpretation of Section 672(5) was that it raises the limits of liability and the kinds of coverage afforded by a New York owner's policy to meet any higher requirements of a no-fault state in which an accident occurs. Thus, the New York domiciliary was entitled to unlimited medical benefits provided by the Pennsylvania No-Fault Act.

August 24, 2005

Scientists at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colo., have created a computer simulation showing Earth's climate in unprecedented detail at the time of the greatest mass extinction in history.

The work gives support to a theory that an abrupt and dramatic rise in atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide triggered the massive die-off 251 million years ago. The research appears in the Sept. issue of the journal Geology.

"The results demonstrate how rapidly rising temperatures in the atmosphere can affect ocean circulation, cutting off oxygen to lower depths and extinguishing most life," says NCAR scientist and lead author, Jeffrey Kiehl.

Kiehl and co-author Christine Shields focused on the dramatic events at the end of the Permian Era, when an


the importance of treating Earth's climate as a system involving physical, chemical and biological processes in the atmosphere, oceans and land surface, all interacting," said Jay Fein, director of the National Science Foundation (NSF)'s climate dynamics program, which funded the research. "Other studies have reached similar conclusions. What's new is the application of a detailed version of one of the world's premier climate system models, the CCSM, to understanding how rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide affected conditions in the world's oceans and on its land surfaces enough to trigger a massive extinction hundreds of millions of years ago."

The CCSM indicated that ocean temperatures warmed significantly at higher latitudes because of rising atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. The warmer temperatures reached a depth of aboutkey details of the late Permian, including higher levels of ocean salinity and high latitude sea-surface temperatures that paleontologists believe were 14°F (8°C) warmer than present.

The modeling presented unique challenges because of limited data and significant geographic differences between the Permian and present-day Earth. The researchers had to estimate such variables as the chemical composition of the atmosphere, the amount of sunlight reflected by Earth's surface back into the atmosphere, and the movement of heat and salinity in the oceans at a time when all the continents were consolidated into the giant land mass known as Pangaea.

July Is the Warmest Time of the Year for Much of the U.S.

Jon Erdman and Brian Donegan
Published: July 12, 2018

This map shows when the hottest time of year is, on average, across the Lower 48 states.(NOAA/NCEI)

You may have an idea when the hottest time of the year is where you live. A map from NOAA's National Centers For Environmental Information (NCEI), shown above, lays out how the average hottest day varies across the Lower 48 states.

Of course, these are just long-term averages. In any given year, bulging areas of high pressure aloft can deliver the year's hottest weather a few weeks on either side of the average dates.

There are several interesting features on the map that caught our eye.

After the Summer Solstice, Mainly

With the exception ofa swath from the Big Bend of Texas to southeastern Arizona, the hottest time of the year over much of the U.S. arrives days, or in some cases weeks, after the late June summer solstice.

While the sun is highest in the sky, delivering its most direct radiation over the Northern Hemisphere, at the summer solstice, it takes multiple days or weeks to warm up the Earth's surface in order to make appreciable changes, and then for the air above it to warm. There exists, therefore, a seasonal lag between the solstice and the typical hottest day of the year.

Speaking of the Desert Southwest

That Big-Bend-to-southeastern-Arizona swath comes relatively early compared to other locations, thanks to the North American monsoon – a seasonal shift in wind direction bringing increased moisture


fueling more frequent showers and thunderstorms as we progress through July.

July for Many

For a swath from the central Rockies to the central Plains, upper Midwest, Great Lakes, Ohio Valley and East, July is the warmest month.

These are the average monthly temperatures for Washington D.C., based on 1981-2010 averages.(NOAA/NWS)

August For the Deep South

Shaded in green and blue, early to mid-August tends to be the hottest time for a swath of the South from central and eastern Texas into the Ozarks, lower Mississippi Valley and Tennessee Valley.

By that time, the somewhat daily slow-moving thunderstorms of early summer will have given way to more persistent high pressure aloft over the South, suppressing clouds and drying soil, helping temperatures to soar.

Theseare the average monthly temperatures for Houston, based on 1981-2010 averages.(NOAA/NWS)

Early August is also typically the hottest time along the northern tier of states from North Dakota to interior Washington state.

West Coast Lag

As you can see, parts of the West Coast aren't typically their warmest until September.

In the heart of summer, the combination of the hot interior deserts and cool air over the ocean drives winds onshore along the coast, keeping low clouds, fog and cool air firmly in place.

By September, the upper-level wind pattern can set up to drive hot, dry winds from the deserts to the coast and offshore, known as Santa Ana winds in Southern California and Diablo Winds in the Bay Area.

What About Alaska and Hawaii?

July is generally the warmest time of the year for much of Alaska, but along the southern coastal areas, peak warmth doesn't occur until the last week of July into August.

This map shows the average warmest day of the year across Alaska.(NCDC)

In Hawaii, most areas don't see their warmest time of the year until August or September. Some high-mountain locations see peak summer temperatures much earlier, however, in July or even June.

Sweden provides a free school lunch to every child in the compulsory (9-year) school system. It consists of a hot meal, a salad buffet, bread and a beverage. The Education Act states it must be free of charge (since 1997) and 'nutritious' (since 2011). No standards/limits are specified but voluntary guidelines for serving of the school meal exist. We describe how school meal quality has changed since 2011. A random sample of schools were contacted in spring 2011 and invited to use a novel web-based instrument to evaluate school meal quality. In spring 2013, the participating schools (N = 191) were encouraged to use it again and 97 did. The outcomes were measures of

Euphemisms for "sin" in MOBIA's Prodigal Son Exhibit

Maureen Mullarkey opines in the New York Sun for Oct 11 ("Scratch and Sniff Sin") that there is more than a whiff of euphemism in descriptions of sin and repentance in the Museum of Biblical Art's current exhibit of illustrations to the Lucan parable of the Prodigal Son.

She notes that "the exhibition offers a splendid selection of mainly paintings and prints that range from the 15th century to the present."

She knows enough about the parable to say, "Moral awakening is the pivot on which the story turns. Without a change of heart — metanoia the Greeks called it — there would be noGabe Newell responds to fan emails every once in a while. This time, it was a support ticket, and he resolved it.

The Allnighter (album)

The Allnighter is the second solo studio album by Glenn Frey, the guitarist and co-lead vocalist for the Eagles. The album was released in mid 1984 on MCA in the United States and the United Kingdom, two years after Frey's modestly successful debut album, No Fun Aloud and four years after the demise of the Eagles. It was and still is Frey's most successful solo album throughout his whole solo career, having reached #22 on the Billboard charts, and releasing two Top 20 singles with "Smuggler's Blues" and "Sexy Girl". The album achieved Gold status by the RIAA in the US. It is generally regarded as the culmination of the smoother, more adult-oriented sound of Frey's solo work.

The single "Smuggler's Blues" helped to inspire the MiamiThe principal mission of the Duke Center for AIDS Research (CFAR) is to promote the collaboration and coordination of AIDS-related research by supporting the scientific needs of the basic and clinical HIV/AIDS research community at Duke.

and has been a target of the Obama administration. In January of 2014, President Obama and First Lady Michelle led a summit on expanding higher education opportunities for low-income students. One of the key issues they addressed was undermatching.

At the summit, over 80 colleges and 15 non-profit organizations pledged to help in “connecting more low-income students to the school that is right for them and ensuring more students graduate,” according to a White House press release. These organizations made commitments to increase outreach and mentorship towards low-income students, and provide funding so that more low-income students can afford to apply to competitive schools.

But undermatching is not without its critics. Nicole Farmer Hurst, founder and CEO of College Advising Corps, believes that the focus on undermatching has narrowed thewho don’t know the difference between institutions,” he said.

I. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a coffin delivery system for metallurgical furnace.
II. Description of the Prior Art
Metallurgical furnaces of the type for sintering and other heat treatment of powdered metals, ceramics and the like, such as carbide, typically comprise an elongated furnace chamber surrounded by a pressure vessel. A door or hatch provides access to at least one and often time both ends of the furnace chamber and through which the parts to be processed are positioned into the furnace chamber.
Typically, the parts are loaded onto a flat plate or into a box type carrier, conventionally called the coffin, which is positioned within the furnace chamber. For large metallurgical furnaces, the coffin together with the parts often times weighs in excess of one thousandpounds.
In order to load the coffin into these previously known furnaces, it has been the previous practice to utilize a highlo truck to both lift the coffin and place the coffin within the furnace chamber. A primary disadvantage of this previously known practice is that a relatively large amount of clearance must be provided along both the sides and top of the furnace chamber. This clearance is required to provide sufficient handling room for the highlo truck as well as a vertical clearance to both lift and lower the coffin within the furnace chamber. Unless sufficient clearance is provided, the furnace would be damaged by the truck and/or coffin.
A primary disadvantage of the necessity of providing both vertical and horizontal clearance space within the furnace chamber is that


.- A prestigious Catholic school in London fears that altering its admissions criteria – as it was ordered to do by an English government agency following a complaint from the British Humanist Association – will damage its Christian identity.

The London Oratory School came under review by the Office of the Schools Adjudicator (OSA) after a complaint from the British Humanist Association said its faith-based admissions policy unfairly favored Catholics over other prospective students, and less well-off Catholics.

The OSA helps clarify the legal position on admissions policies in schools in England, and its members are appointed by the Secretary of State for Education.

The state-funded school has responded to the OSA by appealing the High Court for a judicial review, arguing that the ruling threatens their “strongly Catholic ethos.”

Representing thebut aims to receive clarification in hopes of changing it back in time for its September 2016 school year.

The school was founded in 1863 by the Fathers of the Oratory and aims “to develop young men and women of faith, good character, strong intellect and generous spirit” and “at all times the school serves as a witness to the Catholic faith,” according to its website. The secondary school admits boys aged 7-18, and girls aged 16-18.

Students include the children of former prime minister Tony Blair, deputy prime minister Nick Clegg, and member of parliament Harriet Harman.


Boston Salmon has a new opponent for UFC Sao Paulo.

With Augusto Mendes sidelined due to an injury, “Boom Boom” will now take on RFA featherweight champion Raoni Barcelos in a bantamweight bout in Sao Paulo, Brazil, on Oct. 28. MMA Fighting confirmed the match-up following a report by Combate.

Barcelos (11-1) enters the Octagon for the first time riding a four-fight winning streak, which includes winning and defending the RFA 145-pound title. Barcelos fought for the last time exactly a year before UFC Sao Paulo, finishing Dan Moret at RFA 45.

Salmon (6-1) signed with the UFC after defeating Ricky Turcios via unanimous decision on the first edition of Dana White’s Contender Series in July. Salmon also competed under the RFA banner, winning five of six bouts between 2014 andWill Bayley’s magical golden moment at the Rio Paralympics has been immortalised in Lego – and your vote could help decide whether it goes into production.

All the Minifigures are wearing the outfits and uniforms from the event. The set also includes an alternative Will in medal ceremony attire with his gold medal.

Will was born with arthrogryposis, a rare condition which affects all four of his limbs and can have a significant impact on mobility. In addition, at the age of seven he was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and began a six-month course of chemotherapy at Great Ormond Street Hospital.

As part of his recovery from cancer he began playing table tennis and at the age of 12 he started playing at Byng Hall Table Tennis Club in Tunbridge Wells where, within four years, he was beating most of the able-bodied players.

The man charged in with capital murder in the attack, 21-year-old Patrick Crusius told investigators he targeted Mexicans at the store with an AK-47 rifle, an El Paso detective said in an arrest affidavit. Federal prosecutors have said they're weighing hate-crime charges.

Jessica Coca Garcia, who was among those wounded in the shooting, spoke to those gathered at the League of United Latin American Citizens' "March for a United America."

"Racism is something I always wanted to think didn't exist. Obviously, it does," Coca Garcia said after rising from a wheelchair. Bandages covered gunshot wounds to her leg.

"I love you, El Paso," she said, her voice cracking. "This is where I'm going to stay."

FormerIn its Lok Sabha election manifesto, BJP set targets to complete various projects by 2022, when India will celebrate Platinum Jubilee (completion of 75 years) of its Independence. The manifesto focused on projects in Railways, agriculture, infrastructure, and health, among others. Prime Minister has mentioned about these targets in his various speeches.

The Narendra Modi-led NDA government has already worked on these projects. PM Narendra Modi set a target for pucca house for every family, LPG cylinder for the poor, 100 per cent electrification for households, bank accounts for every citizen, toilets, safe drinking water, and doubling the length of highways by this date. A number of these projects have already been taken up, but the government want to increase the pace of work and reach. Here are some


of the schemes with a completion target of 2022:

Pucca house for every family: The Prime Minister has emphasised that every household should have a pucca house. He has mentioned this in his various speeches. In BJP manifesto too, the party has set the target of having pucca houses for every family across the country by 2022.

LPG cyllinder for the poor: The party has said in its manifesto that every household should have LPG connection at their home by 2022. The government has already worked on this scheme and seen success.

100% electrification for households: The manifesto says that by 2022, there will be 100 per cent electrification for households. This has been the priority of the government since it came to power in 2014.

Bank accounts for every citizen: TheNarendra Modi-led government has put a lot of emphasis on bank account for every citizen. For this purpose, the government announced Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY) in 2014, right after coming to power. The poor now can open a zero balance account without any maintenance cost.

Toilets for every household: Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's pet project Swachh Bharat, the government took initiatives to provide toilets to all citizens. By 2022, the government wants the country to be open defecation free.

Safe drinking water: Safe drinking water for every citizen has also been the government's priority. The BJP manifesto said that the government would strive to provide safe drinking water for every citizen by 2022.

Doubling the length of highways: Road has always been the priority for the NDA government.


and the US Census, there is clearly a big gap, although there is also a distinction between speaking a language at home and having the skills to speak another language.
François Grosjean, Ph.D., Emeritus Professor of psycholinguistics at the University of Neuchâtel, Switzerland, reflects also on the challenge of counting bilinguals, including the definition.

I will present two examples of national censuses—the one in the United States and the one
  in Switzerland—and show how quite official data can sometimes produce very surprising
  results. In this instance, it would appear that there are proportionally more bilinguals
  in the United States than in Switzerland, even though the latter country is known the
  world over for the bi- or multilingualism of its inhabitants.

He has a Masters Degree in International Relations from the School of Politics at The University ofThe best diplomacy fuses symbolism and substance, takes risks in order to build confidence, advances interests while listening to the other side, invites in the public but gives leaders the space needed for authentic dialogue. The recent summit held between South Korean President Moon Jae-in and North Korean Chairman Kim Jong Un appears to have done all these essential things. The resulting Panmunjom Declaration to which they affixed their signatures sets up a widely-anticipated summit between Kim and US President Donald Trump, while consolidating the foundation for building the three pillars of denuclearization, peace and inter-Korean reconciliation. The road ahead will be rocky, and nothing is assured. But the Kim-Moon summit put diplomacy on the Korean Peninsula off to a very good start.

Reading the Tree Leaves

From the moment


when Kim Jong Un spontaneously invited Moon Jae-in to step over the line to the North (presumably causing a momentary panic among South Korean secret service agents), the third Inter-Korean Summit took on a life of its own. Moon had asked when he would have a chance to travel to Pyongyang, so Kim impishly suggested, “Why not right now?” The two men—physical opposites, one young, short, stout; the other old, medium-height, svelte—clasped hands and crossed the line, back and forth. Harvard Negotiation Project professors Roger Fisher and Bill Ury write in Getting to Yes about the power of traveling into enemy territory on a mission of peace. By traversing the line into forbidden territory, Kim and Moon signaled to one another, and to their publics, a will togo beyond the status quo in the direction of reconciliation and peace.

After a morning discussion session and noontime break, Moon and Kim officiated over a ritualistic tree planting that was heavy in the symbolism of Korean unity. They sprinkled the ground with soil from Paektu and Halla mountains and water from the Taedong and Han rivers, a reminder that geography is destiny. The transplanted tree itself dated to 1953, the year of the Armistice Agreement to suspend the Korean War. That year was not a self-evident choice. The historical moment of division was 1945, when US and Soviet authorities agreed to divide the peninsula at the 38th parallel. The date of political division was 1948, when Seoul declared the Republic of Korea and Pyongyang followed suit by proclaiming
