Such objective criteria would minimize the danger that book removal will be based upon constitutionally impermissible grounds, such as the political and social tastes of board members.

in this country; and (4) the considerable efforts she has made to be reunited with her daughter Toahina St. John ("Toahina"), who has sickle cell anemia.[6]
Similarly, St. John's likelihood of eventually being excluded from this country constitutes at least some evidence that she might be a risk to abscond. Yet balanced against this evidence is (1) St. John's mother's steady employment and long maintenance of the same residence; (2) the fact that two of St. John's siblings and her mother are permanent residents of the United States and her daughter is a United States citizen; (3) the fact that St. John herself has an offer of employment if she is released; and, especially, (4) the fact that Toahina needs frequent medical oversight and care.
For St. John to gointo hiding with Toahina would likely mean that Toahina would be deprived of the medical care she needs; for St. John to go into hiding without Toahina would likely mean that St. John would be deprived of her daughter's company. Either outcome seems extremely unlikely, given all the evidence that St. John has submitted of St. John's concern for her daughter, the efforts she has made to be with her daughter, and the way that separation from her daughter adversely affects St. John's depressive, and at times even suicidal, state.
Moreover, St. John's parole determination could be conditioned on the posting of a bail bond; if this were done, St. John's absconding would cause irreparable financial harm to her family, and likely impede Toahina's ever receiving the medical care

to the technique, a cannula is used in conjunction with an outer guide sheath through which the cannula can slidably pass while held in place by the handle portion of the guide sheath. Once the cannula and its sheath have been introduced into the fatty tissue, the sheath guide remains in the tunnel and guides successive introductions of the cannula, keeping it in the same tunnel. While the use of this liposuction technique offers some advantages over the conventional unguided liposuction cannulas, the guided cannula nevertheless suffers from several significant shortcomings and drawbacks. In particular, the guided cannula requires manually thrusting the cannula through the guide sleeve repeatedly for each tunnel. Although this is a less physically demanding procedure, the surgeon must thrust the cannula even more times"A plague o' both your houses" – Mercutio (Romeo and Juliet)

Chapter Thirty-Six: The Plan

She received a text from Gunther shortly after dawn, telling her to dress casually and for a sunny day and incognito. Naturally, Guinevere asked why incognito and his reply angered her. A friend of his father’s had been following Gunther because his father suspected an affair. The friend told on them, and Gunther had to sit through an hour lecture about his role and duties. Guinevere got dressed, hoping she would be incognito enough. She heard a honk from outside and quickly misted away from her chamber and down to Gunther.
He greeted her with a kiss on the cheek. “Is your driver safe?” She was worried about the reprecussions.

It was the most difficult operation he had ever performed. He bungled it considerably, but in the end he succeeded  passably well.

Discussion of the archaeological ethics surrounding the collecting of antiquities.

Friday, September 28, 2007

"We've made it harder for Americans to see the glories of the past"

The late Steve Vincent seems to be the voice of some in the collector "lobby". In one of his last pieces ("Ancient Treasures for Sale. Do antique dealers preserve the past or steal it?", Reasononline, April 2005) before his tragic death in Iraq, he quoted the collector Shelby White.

She acknowledges:

"All we've done is make public and private collections more vulnerable to claims from foreign countries. At the same time, we've made it harder for Americans to see the glories of the past."

She is absolutely right as I presume the "we" refers to like-minded collectors.

So, yes, collectors like Shelby White who have drawn on recentlyRome Scholar at the British School at Rome and a Sir James Knott Fellow at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne. He was subsequently part of the Department of Antiquities at the Fitzwilliam Museum, University of Cambridge, and Reader in Mediterranean Archaeology, Swansea University. He holds the Archaeological Institute of America's Outstanding Public Service Award (2012).

The Birds (1963)

Plot: Melanie Daniels is the modern rich socialite, part of the jet-set who always gets what she wants. When lawyer Mitch Brenner sees her in a pet shop, he plays something of a practical joke on her, and she decidesto return the favor. She drives about an hour north of San Francisco to Bodega Bay, where Mitch spends the weekends with his mother Lydia and younger sister Cathy. Soon after her arrival, however, the birds in the area begin to act strangely. A seagull attacks Melanie as she is crossing the bay in a small boat, and then, Lydia finds her neighbor dead, obviously the victim of a bird attack. Soon, birds in the hundreds and thousands are attacking anyone they find out of doors. There


He said police have also discovered butane hash oil, also known as "dabbing," "honey," "amber," "wax" or "ear wax," being shipped through the postal system to addresses in Maryland, though he said he was unable to specify exact locations. He said drug dealers and users don't know how to extract the powerful oil from marijuana, so they buy it and have it shipped to them.

He cited one traffic stop on I-95 this summer in Cecil County. Police said they seized the oil as well as electronic cigarettes in a vehicle in which passengers were traveling from Florida to New York for a concert.

Users ingest butane hash oil by heating up a piece of metal, like a titanium nail, possibly with a butane torch, and touching the hash oilThis (2000) have illustrated the fresh and inimitable feel that she has for classic American compositions; she won a Grammy for her sly duet with Dr. John on the naughty-but-nice standard “Makin’ Whoopee” and was nominated for another for her performance of "Autumn Leaves" with bassist Rob Wasserman.

With The Devil You Know, Jones turns her focus to the rock & roll canon that shaped a generation. She tackles the work of such giants as Neil Young (“Only Love Can Break Your Heart”), The Band (“The Weight”), and Van Morrison (“Comfort You”). Though these songs are burned deeply into our brains, Jones finds her own unique way in, peeling them back with spare, intimate arrangements, and uncovering layers and emotions that feel both familiar and new.

Her version of “Sympathy


for the Devil,” which she first performed at a Rolling Stones tribute concert at Carnegie Hall, perhaps best represents her approach. “It’s voodoo,” she says. “It's a woman embodying a man embodying the devil—or is it the other way around?"

Jones created the album with the assistance of another Grammy winner, acclaimed folk-soul-rocker Ben Harper, who produced and plays on nearly every track, and contributed the album’s lone new song, “Masterpiece,” a ballad he could picture only Jones singing. Harper, who appeared on Jones's last album, Balm in Gilead.

While some singers might be intimidated by the enormity of this material, Rickie Lee Jones has made a career of fearlessly experimenting with her sound and her persona. Her unforgettable 1979 debut landed her two Rolling Stone covers in two years,and elements of her image were absorbed into the culture, from the Chuck E. Cheese pizza chain to the interest in jazz and signature costume (fingerless gloves, spandex, hat) from so many female pop singers who followed.

Never content with one style or identity, though, she went on to create such masterworks as Pirates and The Magazine, and to delve into such daring projects as the pioneering electronic accompaniment of 1997’s Ghostyhead and her impressionistic representations of the words of Jesus Christ on The Sermon on Exposition Boulevard in 2007. Now she brings this exploratory bravery to The Devil You Know—to the desolation of the New Orleans lament “St. James Infirmary” and the solace of Tim Hardin’s "Reason to Believe."

If a child is born on an airplane, what's his place of birth and citizenship?

In a mid-air drama this weekend, a woman gave birth to a child onboard a British Airways jet flying from London to Boston. The pilot received permission to land in Nova Scotia when it became clear there was a delivery in progress, but the baby was born before the plane could land. As far as what goes on this child's birth certificate next to "Place of Birth" and of what country this child can claim citizenship, it all depends on who you ask. In this case, we've got a mother described by the British Airways crew as Egyptian and traveling on a U.S. passport, and a plane that took off in Britain bound forthe United States that landed in Canada. So where is this child from?

Almost every country in the world, as well as the United Nations, has procedures and recommendations for how to properly classify the geographic details of an in-air birth. The United Nations considers a child born in-flight to have been born in the airplane's registered country. Some countries point to the city where the child first disembarked the plane as the place of birth, and to the airplane's registered country as the place of citizenship. Of course, citizenship and birthplace are two different topics -- citizenship is typically a larger issue and may require some paperwork, while writing a child's birthplace on a birth certificate is often a less legally significant consideration.

For simplicity's sake, we'll focus here


on U.S. documentation procedures, which vary from state to state and even from county to county. The state of Texas offers excellent details on how to document an in-air birth on a plane bound for Texas, even if the birth takes place over, say, Australia. Using a Texas birth certificate, you fill in the county and city of birth with the county and city where the child was first removed from the plane, and you should include a citation of where the birth shows up in the aircraft's flight log. For the location of the structure where the birth occurred (which is typically the city and county of a hospital), the county should be "In flight," and the city should be the name and flight number of theaircraft and the latitude and longitude coordinates of the point over which the child entered the world.

Filing the physical birth certificate is another area that gets complicated when the birth is at high altitude. According to U.S. law, if you were looking for the birth certificate for a child born on a U.S.-registered plane (or ship), you'd have to figure out if the vessel was heading away from the United States or toward it when the birth occurred. For an outbound flight, you'd likely find the birth certificate stored at (or accessible through) the U.S. State Department. If the flight was inbound and landed somewhere in the United States after the birth, you would contact the county where the plane landed to find the record.

Considerations of citizenship, like


birthplace, vary depending on which governing body you contact for an answer. U.S. authorities would tell you that if a child's parents are both citizens of the United States and at least one parent has resided in the United States before the child's birth, the child is automatically a U.S. citizen regardless of the altitude of the birth. The same applies to a case in which one parent is a U.S. national and the other is a U.S. citizen who lived in the United States for at least a year before the birth. Many countries also grant automatic citizenship to a child born on a vessel that is registered to that country, so it's likely that an in-air birth could result in dual citizenship.

White supremacist and border vigilante J.T. Ready was already the subject of a federal domestic-terrorism investigation when authorities say he apparently went on a murder rampage in which he killed four people.

Federal agents seized numerous computers and munitions from the Gilbert home where Ready lived and died in an apparent murder-suicide. The FBI contacted Gilbert police and asked that their agents be involved in the investigation, James Turgal, special agent in charge of the FBI's Phoenix office, told The Arizona Republic.

Factual Background

7
McPherson who had been hired by the company in 1946 as a typist was fifty-nine years old when terminated on June 20, 1986 for cause Hussmann claimed, but because of her age she claimed, and the jury agreed with her.   At the time of termination she had risen to become executive secretary to David Mosteller who had joined Hussmann in 1984 as its president.   Kristufek was hired in 1981 by Hussmann as Director of Employee and Community Relations.   In his employment interview Kristufek stated he had a Bachelor of Science degree in business administrationreceived from Drake University, Des Moines, Iowa, in 1954, and further that he had taken graduate courses at Northwestern University.   Those education claims, apparently never verified by Hussmann, were totally false.   Their falsity was not discovered by Hussmann until November 17, 1987 during the course of depositions in this case when Kristufek admitted the falsity.   The truth was Kristufek had attended Drake University for about a year, but did not graduate, and had taken courses at Northwestern University, but not graduate level courses.   When terminated on August 15, 1986 Kristufek was fifty-seven years of age.   Hussmann claimed that Kristufek was terminated as a result of a department reorganization to reduce costs, the principal feature of which was that


Kristufek's job was abolished.   It was not claimed by Hussmann that Kristufek was fired for cause.   Kristufek claimed before the EEOC that he was discharged for age, but in his complaint in this case he added the claim that his discharge was in retaliation for his support of McPherson in an effort to prevent her discharge.   The jury resolved this latter issue in his favor.   McPherson's successful claim of age discrimination and Kristufek's successful claim of retaliatory discharge are factually related as we shall see.

8
Mosteller, after he joined the company as its president, was not satisfied with McPherson's job performance although she had received merit increases during her entire employment.   In his view she was timid and diffident,too slow, and required excessive supervision.   When the work pressure mounted, McPherson became flustered.   She resisted using word processing equipment.   Further, she did not set up meetings and luncheons for Mosteller as requested, but delegated that responsibility to another secretary.   Mosteller, the only one to give McPherson a poor rating, advised her of these perceived shortcomings, but her work did not improve.   She was warned of possible termination, but her work only deteriorated under the pressure, and she was subsequently terminated.   McPherson was not offered the chance as a senior employee to transfer to another company job.   Mosteller's attitude was clear as he commented "he didn't want to see her face in the company


any more."

9
On that record, viewed from Hussmann's perspective, there may have been adequate reasons for McPherson's discharge unrelated to age discrimination.   Kristufek's testimony, however, added a new dimension which apparently persuaded the jury that the real reason for the discharge of McPherson was in fact her age, and that Kristufek's discharge was not due to the claimed reorganization, but was in retaliation for Kristufek's support of McPherson prior to her discharge.2

10
Part of Kristufek's job as personnel manager was to consult with the company president about personnel matters.   Kristufek's testimony chronicled the discussions he had with Mosteller in behalf of McPherson prior to her discharge.   Kristufek claimed on several occasions to have advised Mosteller that to fire McPherson under the circumstances would violategovernment bureaucrats to keep a company from making money, to McPherson.   He fired McPherson on June 20, 1986 and assigned Kristufek the job of finding as her replacement a "sharp" or "young" secretary.

11
Kristufek collected many resumes of replacement candidates for consideration by Mosteller.   Mosteller would dismiss some prospects who had been in the workplace for a long time with a "no" or would inquire when the prospect had gotten out of school.   Kristufek asked why the prospects he had offered were unacceptable.   Mosteller's answer was that they were all women in their forties or fifties.   In one instance Kristufek suggested a prospect who held a Master's degree from the University of Michigan.   Mosteller asked what she


looked like and how old she was.   When Kristufek speculated the prospect was "around 50" and had gray hair on the sides and was a little stout, Mosteller declined to interview her and told Kristufek not to waste his time.   A thirty-nine-year-old replacement was hired.

12
Kristufek testified that from then on his relationship with Mosteller deteriorated.   Informal conversations and lunches with Mosteller became minimal whereas before his opposition to the firing of McPherson they had a closer personal relationship.   On August 15, 1986 Kristufek was also terminated, not for cause, Mosteller testified, explaining they had just reorganized his job away.

The Legal Issues
I.

13
We agree with the district judge although we view it as a close call that based on these particular factsreason to believe that he also was a potential target.   After Kristufek argued McPherson's case before Mosteller on the basis of age discrimination, he suffered retaliation.   Kristufek testified that to mention age discrimination to Mosteller only infuriated him.   These charges, his and hers, were all related in time and substance and both focused on Mosteller's conduct as president of Hussmann.   Mosteller, the company president, McPherson, his executive secretary, and Kristufek, the personnel officer of Hussmann, were the people directly involved in the charges, all part of the company's inner circle.   That should have been enough even in a perfunctory investigation of the charges to have revealed the retaliation aspect as part of the whole.   Kristufek's retaliation


for a discriminatory reason.   Then it was discovered the employee was not in fact a doctor, an obviously critical job requirement.   It cannot be seen from the present record that a degree in business administration and additional related graduate courses, though likely desirable, were job prerequisites.   Those qualifications were not so critical as to cancel out the statutory penalty for a discriminatory firing.   Kristufek functioned well without those degrees.   He received merit increases and bonuses in the years he worked for Hussmann, though there was some evidence, though not claimed as a basis for discharge, that Mosteller was not fully satisfied with Kristufek particularly after he championed the cause of McPherson.

The list of demands ends with a lengthy denunciation of WWU's marginalization of "hxstorically oppressed students." The misspelling is intentional: "hxstory," I presume, was judged to be more PC than "history," which is gendered, triggering, and perhaps violent. It's easy for me to laugh at these clumsy attempts to make language obey the dictates of political correctness—but I laugh from a position of relative safety, since I am not a WWU professor. On the other hand, if a member of campus were to insist on the proper spelling of the word, would he or she (or xe) have to answer to the Committee for Social Transformation?

Full thing here.

WWU President Bruce Shepard told The Bellingham Herald that only the Faculty Senate can propose an entirelytherapy (ART), died while receiving Category I TB treatment in 1998 and 1999. Two others, who were HIV-negative, were successfully cured with Category I treatment in 2007 and 2009. Patient B reported seeing patient A's mother when she had active TB in 1996.

HIV co-infected patient D was treated for TB with Category I regimen in different health care facilities in 2005 and 2006. In 2010 he had recurrent TB after discontinuing ART, was treated with Category I regimen in GHESKIO, failed and was switched to Category II regimen. He showed delayed response to Category II treatment with AFB smear staying positive after 3 months. After 5 months his symptoms improved, AFB smear converted to negative and he is currently remaining symptom-free. This patient lived in the same densely


populated poor neighborhood of Port-au-Prince as patient A but did not knowingly have social interaction with her or her extended family.

Patient G was treated for TB with Category I regimen in 2008 and was declared cured. However shortly after in 2009 he relapsed and died before his drug regimen could be adjusted. Patients E and F presented with their first episodes of TB in 2010 and 2011 respectfully. Patient E was cured with Category I treatment, Patient F was placed on Category IV treatment following a RIF-resistant result of MTBDR*plus* assay and was also cured. Of note, patient F reported living in the same neighborhood as patient G back in 2008 when he was having TB symptoms. The eighth patient H, who was diagnosed in 2008 was lostin the town of in Horb am Neckar. The Schwarzwälder Bote reported that the witness used the alias Hesham A. and said “Iyad did not say anything about plans” to murder Riecher. The witness said that Iyad did not comment on the fact that Riecher could be killed as part of the attack. Riecher was in frail health due to a lung condition. The accused perpetrators strangled the victim.

Iyad’s last name was not listed in German media reports due to privacy protection. Mohammed Omran Albakr was previously listed in media reports because after his arrival to Germany in 2015, Albakr was praised as a model refugee in a 2016 Schwarzwälder Bote article.

Albakr lived on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights. According to Schwarzwälder Bote, he studied mathematics


and refused to serve in the Syrian army. As a result, the Syrian regime of president Bashar Assad imprisoned him. After he was released from prison, Albakr migrated to Turkey and eventually to Germany.

The Free Democratic Party MP Michael Theurer said in 2014: “If Michael Riecher had not taken over the financial risk of the property developer, we would not be sitting in a rock-solid renovated sanctuary today.”

The murder of Riecher comes amid growing antisemitism in Germany. Michael Blume, the commissioner to combat antisemitism in the state Baden-Württemberg, has faced a wave of criticism for drawing an apparent parallel between the Nazi mass murderer Adolf Eichmann and a German Jewish activist who fights the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions campaign against Israel.

The Simon Wiesenthal Center urged Blume to resignFaculty of Economics and Management at the University of Strasbourg.

The Report on the state of Regionalisation in Europe.

More than 40 experts contributed to this work, by delivering detailed reports about the state of regionalisation and multilevel governance in chosen European countries. The study covers 41 countries, and each country report is based on a similar structure, thereby allowing a comparative approach among all studied countries.

The first part of the report gives the political impetus from


the main European stakeholders

The second part of this report entails a summarised version of the country reports. The objective is to provide interested readers with a short overview of the main features of regionalisation in various European countries. The complete versions of the country reports are available on the AER website, under LINK

The third part provides a thematic approach based on the main findings delivered by the country reports and the current state of regionalisation in Europe. The trends and outlooks lead to open questions on the future of the regions in the European landscape, and more broadly on the role of subnational authorities in the shaping of the continent.

The fourth part gives the floor to the actual regional decision-makers in Europe, across a series of interviews andIraqi forces are fighting for control of government buildings in Mosul on the third day of a renewed offensive against ISIL fighters in west Mosul.

The troops are pushing towards Mosul's Old City centre as they try to clear ISIL, or the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant group, from the city altogether.

West Mosul is the largest remaining urban stronghold in the "caliphate" declared by ISIL, also known as ISIS, in 2014.

Iraqi forces said on Tuesday they had seized the main government offices in Mosul and its famed museum as part of their advances, which included the recapture of three neighbourhoods.

Supported by the US-led coalition bombing ISIL in Iraq and Syria, Iraqi forces began their push against west Mosul on February 19.

The advance slowed during several days of


bad weather, but was renewed on Sunday.

The latest gains have brought government troops and police closer to Mosul's densely populated Old City, where hundreds of thousands of civilians are believed to still be trapped under ISIL rule.

The Iraqi government says 65,000 people have left Mosul in an attempt to escape the fighting, while the Switzerland-based International Organisation for Migration says the number is 51,000.

However, the number who have fled is still just a fraction of the 750,000 people believed to have stayed on in west Mosul under ISIL rule.

Al Jazeera's Stefanie Dekker, reporting from Erbil, in northern Iraq, said many had been caught up in the violence.

She said in a ward run by an international NGO called Emergency there were civilians, including children, from around Mosul with injuriescaused by bullets, shelling and bomb explosions among other things.

"It's a very difficult situation for the people of Mosul," she said.

Government gains

Iraq's Joint Operations Command (JOC) said in a statement on Tuesday that federal police and the elite Rapid Response unit had been able to "liberate" the headquarters for the Nineveh provincial government.

They also seized control of the al Hurriya bridgehead, it said, in a step towards potentially relinking west Mosul with the city's east, which government forces seized from ISIL earlier in the offensive.

All the bridges crossing the Tigris in Mosul have been damaged or destroyed, and Iraqi forces would either have to repair them or install floating bridges to reconnect the two banks of the river which divides the city.

Officers said on Tuesday that security forces


had managed to recapture the Mosul museum, where the fighters destroyed priceless artefacts, releasing a video of their rampage in February 2015.

The museum was on a police list released on Tuesday of sites recaptured from ISIL, which also included Mosul's central bank building, which the fighter looted along with other banks in 2014, seizing tens of millions of dollars.

The JOC also announced on Tuesday that Iraqi forces had regained complete control of the west Mosul neighbourhoods of Al Dawasa, Al Danadan and Tal al-Ruman, bringing the total number of recaptured areas to 10.

ISIL has been pushed from most of the Iraqi territory they once seized, but remain in control of key bastions including west Mosul and the caliphate's de-facto Syrian capital Raqqa.the 2016 election, he playfully suggested he would not accept the results of the election if he was on the losing end. As I recount in my book Election Meltdown, Trump refused to promise to abide by the results if he lost to Hillary Clinton, relying on his claim of a rigged or stolen election. On Oct. 20, 2016, at a rally in Delaware, Ohio, he declared: “Ladies and gentlemen, I want to make a major announcement today. I would like to promise and pledge to all of my voters and supporters, and to all the people of the United States, that I will totally accept the results of this great and historic presidential election—if I win.” His dramatic pause before “if I win” was followed by Trump


unsupported claim he has made dozens of times as well, focusing on heavily Democratic areas full of minority voters like Philadelphia.

This could happen in other states besides Pennsylvania, such as Michigan. Indeed, Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson and local election officials are trying to get permission to start the absentee ballot count early to prevent delays in announcing results.

We saw Trump try to prematurely call an election in 2018, as the Florida Senate and governor’s races came down to just a few thousand votes. He tweeted: “The Florida Election should be called in favor of Rick Scott and Ron DeSantis in that large numbers of new ballots showed up out of nowhere, and many ballots are missing or forged. An honest vote count is no longer possible—ballotskilometers wide. This civilization, which incorporates both the evolved noocytes and recently assimilated conventional humans, is eventually forced to abandon the normal plane of existence in favor of one in which thought does not require a physical substrate. The reason for the noocytes' inability to remain in this reality is somewhat related to the strong anthropic principle.

The book's structure is titled "inter-phase", "prophase", "metaphase", "anaphase", "telophase", and "interphase". This mirrors the major phases of cell cycle: interphase and mitosis.

Significance
This book introduces one of Bear's favorite themes: reality as a function of observers. In Blood Music, reality becomes unstable as the number of observers—trillions of intelligent single-cell organisms—spirals higher and higher.

Karn soon finds out that the dead city (known as Sotaspra) is a taboo area of the planet, only visited (or inhabited) by some scientists/savants such as his rescuer Sarchimus (self-titled "The Wise").  Indeed, Sarchimus considers all of the other savants of the city as rivals, chief of them Hume "Of The Many Eyes".  Sarchimus warns Karn not to go exploring on his own—when Karn disobeys, he discovers the city is full of many mutant creatures, including a "death-fungus" which he narrowly misses, "crawler-vines" which try to strangle him and an amorphous creature Sarchimus calls "saloog", all of which were formed due to radiation from the crystals of which Sotaspra was constructed (when the crystals had energy, and the city was alive).furtherance of Gold Leaf's manufacturing and marketing operations with respect to the sale of the authentic materials from the renovation of the Statute of Liberty and Ellis Island, Gold Leaf negotiated with Sears for the sale to Sears of various products. Details of this negotiation were related to the Foundation and included in a Business Plan presented to the Foundation for the financial, organizational, operational, and marketing reorganization of Gold Leaf. A Memorandum of Agreement dated January 13, 1986, referencing this Business Plan was thereafter entered into between Gold Leaf and the Foundation. The Business Plan proposed the hiring of Hamilton as an operating agent for the Sears program (Business Plan: page 11) with the duties of processing documentation and handling the flow of funds. (Business Plan: page


13). The plan proposal was for Hamilton to serve as the administrative agent for all parties; the sub-licensees, manufacturers, Gold Leaf, the Foundation, and Sears. (Business Plan: page 15). Hamilton was to process all purchase orders from Sears, collect all funds due, distribute all funds per contracts, but hold no liability, responsibility, or warranty for goods. Secondly, it was to deposit remaining funds into the joint escrow account of Gold Leaf and the Foundation. (Business Plan: page 15).
On March 21, 1986, in accordance with the Business Plan, Gold Leaf and Hamilton entered into an agreement (hereinafter the Agreement) for Hamilton's involvement in the Sears project. The Agreement authorized Hamilton to receive the purchase orders and money as provided in the Business Plan; to deposit the money into anfuture defaults in payment under said contracts. Upon filing of a petition and the debtor's request for turnover of this reserve account under § 542, the Court held that the debtor had only a "potential interest" in the fund; it only had a right to monies remaining after all contracts were liquidated; that the debtor had no right to the funds while the dealer paper remained outstanding. As the bank had actually *1022 purchased the contracts, the monies coming in therefrom belonged to the bank and only a percentage inured to the benefit of the debtor under specific conditions. Yet in the case before us the money was directly due to the debtor from Sears. The account was created to pay Gold Leaf's expenses incurred in the manufacture


WASHINGTON — Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski will vote "no" on confirming Betsy DeVos, President Donald Trump's nominee to head the U.S. Department of Education, she announced Wednesday.

Murkowski's announcement on the Senate floor — mirrored by fellow Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine — threw the controversial nominee's confirmation into doubt.

Republicans hold a slim 52-member majority in the Senate, and confirmation requires 51 votes.

The vote appears to be headed for a 50-50 split, wherein Vice President Mike Pence would cast the deciding vote.

The 48 Democratic and Independent senators all appear unlikely to back DeVos in a vote that will likely occur early next week. Upon Murkowski and Collins' announcements, attention quickly turned to Republican Sens. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania and Dean Heller of Nevada who have announced plans tosupport DeVos, but have not made a final decision.

Alaska Sen. Dan Sullivan said he plans to vote in favor of DeVos.

DeVos is a billionaire from Grand Rapids, Michigan, who along with other family members is known for being a GOP megadonor. DeVos family members gave $43,200 to Murkowski's campaign over the last election cycle. They donated $23,400 to Sullivan's 2014 campaign.

DeVos is also a longtime charter-school advocate who has pushed for using public funds to support alternatives to public schools. Opponents of her nomination criticize her lack of experience and question her dedication to public schools.

Murkowski's announcement comes one day after she and Collins voted to move DeVos' nomination to a full Senate vote; both are members of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee.

More overt and violent white-supremacist groups, most notably the Proud Boys, also said they would mobilize — to come and recruit members and brawl with any counterprotesters.

With their recent provocations in New York City and Portland, Oregon, it was clear that a massive and united mobilization was key to demonstrating to the alt-righters, their sympathizers and the city as a whole just how miniscule and unwelcome they are.

This individual was found on Loranthus at Jalahalli on 2nd December 2012. It was in its last instar. One of the most queer-looking caterpillars I've seen till date. Looks like bird droppings on a leaf. Could also camouflage itself on a stone or on the bark of any tree. I thank Ashok Sengupta sir for finding this beauty despite how well-hidden it was!

It pupated on 6th December 2012, at 8pm. Even though I missed watching the pupation, I could get a shot at the freshly pupated stage. At this point of time the colours are generally lighter/ paler:

The next day morning, after the pupa had hardened and the colours were darker. On December 10th, the wing patterns and veins became slightly noticable on the lateral


from the twig.

On day 29, at 3:27pm, the caterpillar started pupating. The process was done by 4:00pm. It was bright red in colour when freshly formed.

Just after pupation. The black structure on top of it is the last moult.

The next day, on day 30, the pupa was dry and had changed appearance to a brownish shade, which would be the most amazing camouflage in any natural conditions. It was perfectly woody. A lateral view of the pupa.

A ventral view of the pupa on day 30.

On day 45, the pupa turned partially transparent and the forewings could be seen through the pupa. This transparency is an indication of nearing eclosion.

On day 46, the pupa eclosed and the adult Common Rose emerged. (Eclosion process was missed!)

The discarded pupa after eclosion:

Next to which there was another group of mudpuddling Common Albatrosses (Appias albina) and Mottled Emigrant (Catopsilia pyranthe) This is a common sight in the Western Ghats after a rainy day. A little while later, these were joined by the Lesser Gull (Cepora nadina), the Painted Sawtooth (Prioneris sita), which are not as common as the rest of them in the group.

We also came across a very strange looking Lycaenid which hasn't been identified yet. Looks like it has lost scales, or it might be a colour aberration.

We also saw a few small sized Pointed Ciliate Blues (Anthene lycaenina) and a Club


undertaken to provide this opportunity for us. His butterfly park is complete with host plants and nectar plants that attract a large number of butterflies from all the sub-families. He has also strategically placed rotten fruits and such other butterfly-bait in the right places, so as to get the butterflies' attention. Also, a special thank you to Sammilan's mom, Manimala aunty, for her care and hospitality. She cooked some really delicious Mangalorean food for us! It was an absolute pleasure to be there, and an even bigger pleasure to be with the people who I was with.the 1959 Pan American Games

Security sources meanwhile said an army officer and five militants had been killed in clashes as security forces carried out arrest raids near the Arish air base on Wednesday.

The Amaq statement said Islamic State fighters used a Kornet anti-tank missile in the Tuesday attack that targeted the interior and defense ministers who were visiting the area.

Neither minister was harmed, a security source said.

Islamic State’s Sinai branch has for years waged attacks against security forces, and in the past year expanded targets to include Christians and other civilians.

New standards on Canadian canola exports being demanded by China has producers worried, something the prime minister said is a priority as he heads to Beijing.

China, which takes about 40 per cent of Canada's canola seed exports, is insisting the amount of dockage — foreign material like stems and pods — be cut down from 2.5 per cent to one per cent, effective this Thursday.

"Somebody has to pay for that and at the end of the day it's coming out of the farmer's pocket," said Kevin Serfas, who owns a canola farm near Lethbridge, Alta.

It's not just the costs of cleaning that has him worried.

"It'll be a ripple effect that's going to happen. Once we have to start cleaning this stuff down to one per cent,MEMORIALS should be created across Scotland to mark the deaths of thousands of women brutally tortured and killed during the witch trials, say leading feminists and researchers.

Calls to acknowledge the “genocide of Scottish women” include a network of plaques across the sites in Scotland where women were held, tried, tortured and burned at the stake.

It is estimated that about 2,500 women in Scotland were executed for witchcraft between the mid-16th and early-18th centuries, yet there is no large-scale public memorial to the fact.

Women who were burned at the stake, hung or strangled included healers and local wise women as well as those considered rebellious to the Presbyterian cause, including many who continued to practise as Catholics. Others targeted included those thought of as “different”, or even women singled

what a steal!"

Through five seasons, Carter was soup. "That's not dinner, mom!"

It's not even so much that Carter was unable to predict the future -- that Baldwin would explode in the second half of his fifth season to finish with 14 touchdowns and 1,069 yards -- it's that a Hall of Fame wide receiver wasn't capable of recognizing the receiving talent that was already being put on display right then and there. That's really the only part that's disturbing about Carter's comments.

If he was your wide receivers coach, he might advise the front office that Baldwin was expendable. "Hey Pete, Baldwin didn't have 1,200 yards, let's trade him for Plaxico Burress. He probably deserves another ... shot."

Thank God he's not a coach though, right?

In 2013, Baldwin finished withtargets, one of the lowest drop percentages in the NFL. Going back to 1992, when targets were first recorded for PFR, Baldwin's 103 targets were the third-fewest ever for a player who caught at least 14 touchdowns. There's also the fact that you could argue Baldwin caught another touchdown that was called incomplete and in the final couple of weeks, Wilson was clearly going for Baldwin in the end zone but the two couldn't connect. On one occasion, Baldwin even seemed open but the pass was off target and nearly intercepted.

That sure seems like something that will continue in the playoffs and for seasons to come. He may not be your prototypical number one, but what's "prototypical" about any top receiver these days? Brown might be smaller than


play of Tyler Lockett, the 5'10, 181 lb (Wanna talk about "prototypes" again?) special teams standout who turned into a special team standout.

Over the last 10 games of the year, Lockett caught 39 passes for 526 yards and six touchdowns. He also caught just barely under 80% of his targets, a number that pretty much won't be matched by anyone over that period of time. That's a full season pace of 62 catches, 841 yards, and 10 touchdowns. Pretty good for a rookie but when you include his punt and kick return duties, it becomes pretty good for, well, just about anyone.

Going back to Week 7, Lockett was second in the entire NFL in all-purpose yards behind only Brown. Not all yards are created equal, but when youthe Cardinals? Probably not. In the AFC, you could put them above New England and Houston. With tight ends, Travis Kelce and Tyler Eifert may give their teams the edge.

This much is definitely true though: You could not call these guys, "pedestrian" or "appetizers." If they are, then John Schneider has the best happy hour in the league.

the game-winner against Green Bay in the NFC Championship, and made the most unbelievable catch of the Super Bowl (if only he had a path to the end zone, but c'est la vie.)

Despite all of that, I still did not advocate giving Kearse over $2 million to stick around this season.

He had a knack for making big plays but was not consistent, wasn't much more than a number four receiver, and really played horribly in that game against the Packers despite his overtime heroics. I still don't know that Seattle should (or even will be able to) re-sign him in the offseason, but Kearse has earned himself a nice payday with the strongest season of his career.

In addition to being the best blocking receiver on the team, Kearsehas 49 catches for 685 yards and five touchdowns -- That's as many touchdowns as he had in his previous two regular seasons combined. But like Baldwin and Lockett, it's his catch rate that really stands out: 72%.

Over the final four games of the season, Kearse caught 20 of 24 targets (83.3%), 256 yards, and two touchdowns. Prior to that, he caught two touchdowns in that wild game against the Steelers. He finished 19th in DYAR and fifth in DVOA.

You have to remember that Kearse came to the team in 2012, same as Wilson. They've never not known each other as pros.

Think of all the passes that Wilson has thrown to Baldwin and Kearse, in both practices and games, over a four-year period. That's chemistry between QB and

You know that high school team that was not competing for the last three years but suddenly every single player on the roster is a senior? And some of them have been playing sports together since they were eight? So in a way their bond of knowing what the other guy is going to do before he does it, or without having to say it, overcomes any lack of talent they might have compared to guys that are bigger, faster, stronger? That's sort of what Seattle's passing game is right now, with Lockett as the upstart freshman who was recruited from a neighboring town and moved in with his grandmother justZanimljivosti - Zvanična prezentacija opštine Sjenica

Enjoy all that this vivid, vibrant and vivacious destination has to offer when you stay in one of IHG’s 22 Beijing hotels. Also known as the Northern Capital, the city creates a sensory overload with its fast moving eight-lane freeways, towering high-rises and sprawling apartment complexes, all underpinned by a dynamic imperial heritage. There is an order and symmetry amidst the mass of modernity, most effectively symbolised by Tian’anmen Square and its surrounding buildings. Beijing is not all expanses of concrete, steel and glass, however. The city is also home to opulent temples and relics from a bygone age.

A tripod joint uses a three-pronged yoke attached to the gearbox output shaft with roller bearings on the end. As the suspension compresses and the wheel arcs upwards, the yoke spins at a constant velocity while bearings run in groves in the driveshaft, allowing the yoke to plunge down inside the driveshaft housing.

This enables the driveshaft to automatically adjust its length without any loss of power. The cantilever effect of the rear end also prevents any shaft jacking – clever stuff, eh?

Hey big boxer! BMW R18 makes pricey production debut

First published on 03 April 2020 by Jordan Gibbons

Here's your first official look at the BMW R18 cruiser. Taking visual cues from the classic R5 and sporting a whopping 1802cc air-cooled boxer


cruising and that there will be an optional reverse gear that uses the starter motor to help riders paddle the bike backwards from standstill (rather than actually acting as a mechanical reverse). The twin chrome exhausts elegantly sweep from the heads back to their exit with straight-through style serenity – an optical illusion that masks the under-engine collector with shielded pipework that snakes in and back out again, just like Triumph's T120s

Like the rest of the the BMW's heritage R-series machines, the R18 engine uses a shaft final drive, although it's fully exposed on both R18 models, rather than enclosed. The chassis of this bagger version also appears to be the same as – or at least very similar to – the concept R18 bobber we’ve already seen,see the firm debut a CarPlay connection, as first seen on two wheels on Honda's current Gold Wing (and now Africa Twin, too). Flanking the huge screen are a pair of equally enormous speakers (none are visible in the pannier lids), while the visible switchgear reveals that BMW will continue to use the set-up seen on the majority of their big bikes, including the intuitive command wheel on the left-hand switchgear.

But look closely at the front of the fairing above the headlight and there’s a telltale little box that suggests the bagger will boast adaptive cruise control – and possibly other radar-driven safety benefits – which will slow down the bike in traffic, then gently resume cruising speed when the way ahead has cleared. Talking of the headlamp,


see a production-ready performance cruiser, this is yet another toe being dipped in the Harley and Indian-infested waters.

BMW first revealed a stripped-back, raked-out version of this bike in May (see below), but have now given it a complete overhaul and called it the Concept R18/2.

This version seems squarely aimed at the sportier American cruisers from Harley-Davidson and Indian, as BMW bids to muscle in on the hugely lucrative State-side market.

It has striking wheels; 19in at the front and 16in at the rear to create a dynamic dragster look. The candy red paintscheme from the fairing to tailpiece is eye-catching and the teardrop tank certainly gives it plenty of drama.

Target 5 (combat invasive alien species) of the EU Biodiversity Strategy recognises the severe impact that IAS have on biodiversity within Europe and the need for them to be managed more effectively. They represent a major threat to native plants and animals in Europe, causing damage worth billions of euros to the European economy every year. The Regulation 1143/2014 on invasive alien species entered into force on 1 January 2015. It provides for a set of measures to be taken across the EU in relation to invasive alien species included on a list of Invasive Alien Species of Union concern.

Specific expected results are:

12.5% increase in the number of white -clawed crayfish within the South West region;

58.5% reduction in the distribution of Himalayan balsam in the Bristol Avon and River Wensum catchments;

55% reduction in the distribution of Japanese knotweed in the Bristol Avon and River Wensum catchments; and

The Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) is the lead government agency in England for biosecurity, including issues related to invasive alien species (IAS). It also houses the British Non-native Species Secretariat which coordinates activities to manage IAS across Great Britain. APHA provides research, services and advice to the UK government on IAS management. In particular, it has experience in wildlife population and disease modelling,contingency planning and practical management of invasive invertebrates. APHA’s National Wildlife Management Centre has previously been involved in two LIFE projects focused on IAS management. The first, led by Scottish Natural Heritage, aimed to eradicate American mink from the Western Isles of Scotland. APHA was the lead partner for the second project, which aimed to eradicate the ruddy duck (Oxyura jamaicensis) from Great Britain.

Last Thursday saw the first episode of a new four part series on BBC 2 entitled Victorian Pharmacy. The series is produced by the same company (Lion Television) who produced Victorian Farm, which was shown last year.

The series looks at the workings of a Victorian pharmacists’ shop. The first episode sees the shows two main stars, Ruth Goodman (also from Victorian Farm) and Nick Barber, along with their apprentice Tom Quick setting up shop in the re-constructed Victorian town at Blists Hill.

We saw quite a wide range of activities in the first episode, from gathering herbs for traditional remedies to the creation of a slightly more scientific remedy in a rather basic (by today’s standards) laboratory.

Dozens of people are being infected with the deadly Ebola virus each day in Sierra Leone, as the terrifying disease tears through the country's capital city, Freetown.

Yesterday, forty-nine new cases were confirmed in just 24 hours, the National Ebola Response Center (NERC) reported. So many people are succumbing to the deadly virus that removing the dead bodies is becoming a serious problem.

Lawmaker Claude Kamanda who represents a western area of the country said that more than 20 deaths are being reported each day.

Sierra Leone health workers working with the bodies of Ebola victims at Kenema Hospital in the east

He told the local Politico newspaper that authorities are experiencing challenges collecting corpses from both quarantined and non-quarantined homes.

Sierra Leone is one of three West African nationsat the epicenter of the worst outbreak of the disease on record.

According he latest statistics from the World Health Organization (WHO), the virus has killed more than 4,500 people since first appearing deep in the Guinean forest last December.

Authorities say the uncontrolled movement of people from the interior to Waterloo - which is the gateway to Freetown - has fueled the increase of Ebola cases in the west.

There are 851 total confirmed Ebola cases in the Western Area Urban and Western Area Rural zones, NERC reported.

In terms of numbers of cases, the two western zones may soon


surpass a former epicenter of the outbreak in Sierra Leone - the eastern districts of Kenema and Kailahun where there have been a total of 1,012 confirmed cases.

No new cases were reported yesterday in Kenema and Kailahun but a WHO spokeswoman said it is too early to declare that the epidemic has burned itself out in the east.

'There was a drop in new cases in Kenema and Kailahun and fingers were crossed but there has been a bit of a flare up thanks to a couple of unsafe burials,' said Margaret Harris, WHO's spokeswoman in Sierra Leone.

'So it's too early to say we have a real decline ... definitely tooearly to say it's been beaten there.'

The World Food Program delivered emergency food rations to people in Waterloo over the weekend, as local media reports suggest the western city may also have to be quarantined.

'The growing fear has left the public with no choice but to call on the Government for Waterloo to be quarantined as was done to other places including Kailahun, Kenema, Bombali, Port Loko and Moyamba Districts,' the Exclusive newspaper said.

Most of the Ebola cases are still found in the eastern districts of Kenema and Kailahun but the disease seems to be taking a hold in the western areas of the country and spreading through the capital city, Freetown

Many residents of the capital note that Ebola has followed the same route across the country as rebels who in 1991 started a savage war in Kailahun district.

The war ended in Freetown a decade later where the final battle was fought. Now the enemy is a disease, and the president is putting in place a military-style response.

President Ernest Bai Koroma last week appointed Defense Minister Alfred Palo Conteh as CEO of NERC.

The Slavs live in Poland

During the Early Middle Ages, a lot of small princes and dukes ruled the place where Poland is now. None of them had very much power. Most of the people who lived in Poland were Slavs, but each little group of Slavs had its own leader. During the 800s AD, the Slavs had been busy fighting off the Holy Roman Emperors, but after 924 there weren’t any Holy Roman Emperors and Poland was pretty much on its own.

Duke Mieszko makes Poland into a country

Then in 962 AD, Otto I became the new Holy Roman Emperor. He started to expand his empire by attacking his eastern neighbors. Duke Mieszko, a Slavic leader, decided he’d better make all of Poland into one country that could


defend itself against Otto’s armies. To keep Otto from making his attack a religious crusade, Duke Mieszko converting himself and his people to Christianity in 966 AD. Duke Mieszko lived a long time. By the time he died in 992, he had made Poland one of the strongest countries in Europe. And he had made a peace treaty with Otto’s daughter-in-law, the Empress Theophano.

Boleslaw, the first king of Poland

When Mieszko died, his son Boleslaw became the first king of Poland. Boleslaw was a strong ruler and general like his father, and he also ruled a long time. By the time King Boleslaw died he had conquered a large empire. Under Boleslaw, Poland extended all the way to Kiev in the east and nearly to Berlin in the west.Boleslaw named his country after his own people, the Polans. Even though Boleslaw was a Christian like his father, he married four women at the same time. Boleslaw died in 1025 AD, when he was about sixty years old.

Mieszko II of Poland

Mieszko II loses land

But when Boleslaw died, his enemies saw an opportunity to attack before Boleslaw’s son, King Mieszko II, could get his feet under him. In 1031 Mieszko II lost a big battle. The Holy Roman Emperor Conrad II and the prince of Kiev, Jaroslaw, ganged up on him, and he lost a lot of land.

Casimir and Boleslaw II are stronger

But Mieszko II’s son, Casimir the Restorer, and his grandson, Boleslaw II, were better generals and built up Poland’s strength again. Boleslaw II made alliances with


the Pope and Matilda of Canossa in Italy. So he was able to successfully fight the Holy Roman Empress Agnes, and then her son Henry IV.

Judith – many Jewish people move to Poland

Boleslaw’s younger brother and successor, Wladyslaw, married Agnes‘s daughter Judith (Henry IV’s sister). Then Judith tried to take over Poland from him. Wladyslaw encouraged many Jews to move from Germany to Poland, fleeing the First Crusade. Wladyslaw and Judith’s son, Boleslaw III, kept up a good relationship with his cousin Henry V.

The Acts of Cienia

But in 1138, Boleslaw III’s five sons split Poland up among themselves. There were a lot of small wars among the five dukes, the bishops of Poland, and the other rich men and women of the kingdom. These rich men and womengot to be powerful enough that they were able, in 1228, to force Duke Wladyslaw III to sign the Acts of Cienia, which, like England’s Magna Carta of 1215 and Hungary’s Golden Bull of 1222, created a written law for Poland that even the dukes had to obey, so the dukes couldn’t just do whatever they wanted anymore.

Casimir III of Poland

The Mongols invade Poland

Civil wars in the Holy Roman Empire during the 1200s prevented any more attacks from Germany. But now attacks came from the east: in 1241, 1259, and 1287, the Mongols invaded Poland and made it part of the Mongol Empire.

Wladyslaw I

But when the bubonic plague struck Central Asia in the early 1300s, the Mongol Empire collapsed. While in most of Europe millions of people were


dying of the plague, hardly anyone died in Poland. So this was a good time for Poland, which regained its independence. In 1320, Wladyslaw I managed to reunite Poland and make himself king.

Casimir III: More Jews move to Poland

Soon after that, in 1333, Wladyslaw’s son Casimir III began to conquer the land to their East – Lithuania. Poland also got richer both in money and in brain-power by welcoming thousands of Jews who were being persecuted in Western Europe at this time, and who now immigrated to Poland. The Pope complained about this kind treatment of the Jews, but the Polish king and the Polish church insisted on welcoming the Jews to Poland.

Beasley also said that both Ice Edge Holdings and a group headed by Chicago sports mogul Jerry Reinsdorf are still talking about buying the Phoenix Coyotes. Reports have had Reinsdorf's group dropping out in recent days.

A member of the Reinsdorf group, Phoenix attorney John Kaites, said it still stands behind the agreement it made with the city in April.
