to apprehend him the next day. He contacted Deputy United States Marshal Charles J. Wood and asked him to assist in apprehending the defendant. Deputy Wood testified that the Marshals Service works with Connecticut parole officers on a "frequent basis." Transcript of Suppression Hearing ("Tr.") 111.[4] Officer Barry also asked Officer Cartagena to come along in a "secondary role." Tr. 162.
The next morning, February 21, Officer Barry, Officer Cartagena and three other parole officers met before going to English Street. They were joined by Deputy Wood. Officer Cartegena gave the group information about the defendant's physical appearance and criminal record. The officers then drove to 189 English Street. Officer Barry, Officer Cartagena and Deputy Wood went to the front door of the Moseley residence; the other officers tooka warrant for his arrest, and asked if he was inside. Speaking softly so as not to be overheard by the defendant, Ms. Moseley indicated that the defendant was in the rear of the apartment with her young son, asked the officers to be careful of her son, then moved to the side, permitting them to enter. Deputy Wood and Officer Barry entered with their guns drawn. Officer Cartagena stayed behind with Ms. Moseley.
Ms. Moseley's apartment contained a living room, kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms. Deputy Wood and Officer Barry moved from the front door, through the living room to the kitchen. When Deputy Wood reached the kitchen, he looked through an open doorway to an adjoining bedroom and saw the defendant lying on a bed. Deputy Wood


called to the defendant by name and ordered him not to move. The defendant complied with the order. Officer Barry, who overheard Deputy Wood speak to the defendant, conducted a quick security check of the other bedroom and bathroom, then joined Deputy Wood.
The bedroom containing the defendant was small, about ten feet by ten feet, and cramped. The only area for walking was restricted to a narrow perimeter around the sides and foot of the bed. The head of the bed was against a wall on the officers' right as they entered. The defendant was lying on the far side of the bed. His head was close to the foot of the bed and his arms were over his head. He was wearing jeans and a t-shirt. Ms.Moseley's two-year-old son was lying in a similar manner closer to the officers. Both the defendant and the child were awake.
The officers moved to the defendant's side of the bed to take him into custody. Officer Barry took control of the defendant's arms, ordered him to sit up, and removed him from the bed with assistance from Deputy Wood. The defendant was placed in handcuffs with his hands behind his back. Officer Barry took the lead in handcuffing the defendant; Deputy Wood assisted. The handcuffs were close-fitting and double-locked. The defendant remained compliant throughout and offered no resistance.
Once the defendant was securely handcuffed, Officer Barry began to escort the defendant from the bedroom to the kitchen. He yelled to Officer Cartagena that the defendant was in custody. Officer


Cartegena notified the other officers, all of whom proceeded to enter the apartment.
As Officer Barry was escorting the defendant from the bedroom in handcuffs, Deputy Wood undertook to search the area in the vicinity of the bed to see if the defendant had discarded a weapon, narcotics or other contraband. Deputy Wood commenced the search by looking through some clothing and other items that were strewn on the floor along the side of the bed where the defendant was taken into custody. Nothing incriminating was found. Next, he lifted the mattress on the bed, which hung over the edge of the box spring by about a foot. Using both hands, he lifted the mattress eighteen inches or so, looked underneath, and saw a pistol. The handle of thedefined as "the area from within which he might gain possession of a weapon or destructible evidence." 395 U.S. at 763, 89 S.Ct. 2034. When Deputy Wood lifted the mattress to see what might be underneath, the area under the mattress was not within the defendant's immediate control as defined in Chimel. Officer Barry and the defendant were near the doorway to the bedroom, about eight to ten feet away from Deputy Wood. The defendant, who is about 5'4", was under the control of Officer Barry, who is 6'7". Both Officer Barry and Deputy Wood were positioned between the defendant and the area under the mattress on the side of the bed where the pistol was found. To gain access to that area, therefore, the defendant would have


had to break free from Officer Barry, push Officer Barry out of the way, move to the opposite side of the bed, kneel with his back to the bed, and reach behind his back into the area between the mattress and box spring, all without being stopped by Officer Barry or Deputy Wood. It is inconceivable that he could accomplish this while securely handcuffed behind his back.
In United States v. Blue, 78 F.3d 56 (2d Cir.1996), the defendant moved to suppress a machine gun discovered between a mattress and box spring after the defendant was removed from the mattress, handcuffed behind his back and placed face-down on the floor. The issue raised by the motion to suppress was whether the area between the mattress and box spring waswithin the defendant's "immediate control" as defined in Chimel. The District Court declined to suppress the machine gun relying on United States v. Hernandez, 941 F.2d 133 (2d Cir.1991), which upheld a search under the outer edge of a mattress because it was within the grab area of a handcuffed detainee. The Second Circuit concluded that Hernandez was not controlling because the officer who conducted the search in that case planned to put the handcuffed detainee back on the bed in a position where she could reach under the mattress if left unattended even for a brief time, which was a distinct possibility because the multi-room apartment contained three other suspects. In Blue, in contrast, the apartment consisted of a single room, the defendant and his confederate were


guarded by an officer who stood over them at all times, and three more officers were in the immediate vicinity. "Given the small size of the one-room apartment and the fact that [the defendant and his confederate] were secured during the entire time in question, there was no possibility that either one of them could reach deep into the interior of the bed without being stopped...." 78 F.3d at 60.
Under the principles of Chimel, as applied in Blue and Hernandez, the search in this case can be sustained only if the evidence permits a finding that there was some risk the defendant could reach into the area where the gun was located after he was taken away in handcuffs by Officer Barry. The Government urges that a reasonablyprudent officer in Deputy Wood's position would believe that the area under the mattress was within the defendant's grab area after he was arrested. Govt.'s Supp. Mem. at 11. In support of this contention, the Government states that "the search through the clothing and underneath the mattress began instantaneously with the defendant's removal from the bed to the corner of the room where the firearm was found and lasted only a few seconds as the defendant was being escorted around the bed by Officer Barry." Id. at 12. I do not agree with the Government's statement of the facts. Deputy Wood began the search after the defendant was handcuffed. See Tr. 149-50. His search through the clothing and other items on the floor took more than a few


seconds. By his own estimate, the cursory search took nearly a minute. Tr. 147. By the time Deputy Wood lifted the mattress, the defendant was on the opposite side of the bed near the doorway. The defendant was securely under the control of Officer Barry the entire time. On these facts, it cannot be said that the area under the mattress was within the defendant's immediate control as defined in Chimel.
In support of its contention that the area under the mattress was properly searched incident to the defendant's arrest, the Government states that "other rooms in the house had not been `cleared' and third parties could have been hiding in closets or other spaces." Govt.'s Supp. Mem. at 11. The Government's reliance on the risk posed by unseenanything, Ms. Moseley's cooperation with the officers, her use of a soft voice to prevent the defendant from overhearing, and her expression of concern about her son's safety indicated that an unidentified third person was unlikely to be present. After entering the apartment, Officer Barry and Deputy Wood walked through the living room and kitchen. Deputy Wood then proceeded toward the bedroom where the defendant was apprehended, while Officer Barry conducted a visual security check of the other bedroom and bathroom. Based on their testimony at the suppression hearing, Officer Barry believed nobody else was in the apartment and Deputy Wood also felt secure at the time.
The Government contends that, in any event, Deputy Wood's search under the mattress may be sustained as a search incident to arrest


grabbed a weapon or evidence before he was handcuffed and removed, provided the arrest and search are reasonably contemporaneous or parts of a single transaction. As applied to the facts of the present case, this approach would permit a search of a considerable area in the bedroom after the defendant was taken away in handcuffs, one arguably encompassing not only the bed, the floor around the bed and the area under the mattress, but also the top of a nearby dresser, possibly one or more dresser drawers, one or two clothes hampers and a closet.
The cases cited by the Government reflect the view that if an area in a dwelling can be lawfully searched under Chimel before the arrestee is handcuffed and removed, a subsequent search of theJudge Kravitz's opinion states that even if the vest was covered by a sheet, as the defendant claimed, its seizure was permissible incident to the defendant's arrest because it was lying on a couch only two or three feet away from the defendant when he was arrested and placed in handcuffs, and the seizure occurred virtually simultaneously with the arrest. As I read the decision in Hill, it is faithful to the Second Circuit's reasoning in Hernandez and Blue, and does not purport to adopt a more expansive approach to the proper scope of a search incident to arrest.
[7]  The defendant's legitimate expectation of privacy as an overnight guest in Ms. Moseley's apartment was no greater than the one he could assert with regard to his approved

Did they know how many little boys and girls a gunman killed at First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, Texas?

Did they know there was a second church attack that same day in Fresno, Calif.?

Barry Young’s voice rose as he led an “intruder awareness and response training” for church personnel recently at Prairie Baptist Church in Scotts, Mich., near Kalamazoo.

“What happened in Texas isn’t new. It’s just larger than normal,” said Young, the vice president of church security ministries at Grandview, Mo.-based Strategos International, a Christian company that teaches people at schools, churches and other institutions how to deal with a violent intruder.

In the wake of the horrific churchof becoming a co-leader of Cocks Not Glocks, the movement started by UT alumna Jessica Jin, who created the program to raise awareness about concealed carry by “fighting absurdity with absurdity”; Lopez would later further her activism by co-founding Students Against Campus Carry. I spoke to the Texas junior about her involvement with gun control reform and future plans for her activism.

A House committee gave preliminary approval Wednesday to a bill that would let gun owners with concealed-carry permits cross state lines without prior approval, as long as they followed local concealed-carry laws.

The strict party-line vote by the House Judiciary Committee followed a full day of debate, during which Democrats called the bill federal overreach that panders to the gun lobby, while Republicans argued it is just a


logical extension of the Second Amendment.

The Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act now heads to the full House, where supporters are optimistic about its chances: The bill already has 213 co-sponsors, including every Republican member of the Arizona delegation.

A potential mass shooting that Rockledge authorities say was headed off by "good guys with guns" last week has some Second Amendment rights proponents calling for more people becoming responsible gun owners.

But there are also calls for caution, as the nation continues to reel from the disturbing trend of gun violence in public places.

"We (law enforcement) call ourselves the first responders, but in reality, we're the second responders," said former Melbourne police Detective Mark Laderwarg, who is also a firearms instructor and an advocate for gun rights.

In a huge win for SecondAmendment supporters, the U.S. House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday held a mark-up of H.R. 38, the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act, and favorably reported an amended version of the bill to the full House. Anti-gun Democrats on the Committee offered a lengthy list of amendments to weaken or gut the bill, all of which were defeated.

The last 30 years have seen a continual expansion of the right to carry concealed handguns for self-defense within the United States, even as the nationwide violent crime rate has plummeted during the same period.

both conservative and liberal commentators in this country. Both sides are now taking hard shots at the company.

Conservative commentator Michelle Malkin calls out Apple at her blog, suggesting the company might have thought it simply picked an easy target:

Obviously, Apple's lawyers would not be making this particular argument if O'Grady were a reporter at the San Francisco Chronicle or Los Angeles Times.

Dan Gillmor is somewhat more liberal in his politics than Malkin. Gillmor recently left his job as a technology reporter at the San Jose Mercury News to found Grassroots Media, and in commenting on the Apple vs. The Blogosphere case put it this way:

Apple Computer's disgusting attack on three online journalism sites, in a witch hunt to find out who (if anyone) inside the company leaked informationEric Pickles, the Secretary of State for Communities, has published new figures showing that one London family cost £345,718 in police call-outs, ambulance alerts and social services interventions over the course of a year.

The household in Barnet, north London, is thought to be the most expensive encountered by officials as part of efforts by the Government to tackle the 120,000 “troubled families” who cost the state £9 billion a year in crime, anti-social behaviour, disruption in schools and health problems.

The figures do not include money paid out to the families in benefits so the cost to the taxpayer could be even higher.

The data, released by the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG), also shows that one single-parent family in the south west of England cost local agencies


in their areas and launch schemes using local charities and private firms to turn their lives around.

The Government is providing councils with £4,000 for each family they successfully help on the “payment by results” system.

The money will go towards reducing truancy, youth crime and anti-social behaviour, or putting parents back into work.

Those who refuse to accept help will be faced with eviction or having benefits removed.

In Barnet just 18 troubled families cost taxpayers £1,729,112 in a year – an average of just over £96,000 per family.

The money was spent on prison and probation services, policing, health costs and benefit payments to the families.

Writing for Telegraph.co.uk Mr Pickles also disclosed that in Solihull in the West Midlands, just three per cent of households account for almost a fifth oftranscendance et d'immanence.

Emma Marris

Night is falling in the Wood River Valley, a broad, flat expanse of southern Oregon, just south of Crater Lake National Park. John Stephenson, a gray-haired, lantern-jawed U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologist, is building a campfire on this chilly late October evening. He is here to be a human — to move around and make noise and generally discourage a nearby wolf pack from coming out of the dark timbered hills. These wolves have killed four yearling cattle in this particular pasture already. And this isn’t any old wolf pack; it was the first to settle in southern Oregon, and the family of a legendary lupine wanderer


when he became the seventh wolf to be captured and fitted with a radio collar in Oregon. That fall, he left his natal pack and took off on an epic thousand-mile trek that saw him cross into California for a time, becoming the first wild wolf in the Golden State since the 1920s. His wanderings surprised biologists, who hadn’t realized how far wolves were prepared to travel in search of a good territory and a mate. And he inspired environmentalists, who regarded “Journey” as symbolic: the personification of wildness reclaiming the Pacific Northwest. OR7 has since inspired two documentaries, a children’s book, and a Twitter account (“Hobbies: wandering, ungulates”).

Since his famous cross-state trek, OR7 has settled down in a large territory stretching from north of Crater Lake downto the California border. He’s found a mate and had several rounds of pups. The family is known as the Rogue Pack after the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest that makes up much of their turf. OR7’s radio collar has gone dead, but Stephenson has been unable to trap him or his mate; the wolves are too wily.

OR7 is now 7 years old, and he and his family have largely kept to themselves, hunting elk and staying in the remotest parts of the forest. It wasn’t until this year that the Rogue Pack bothered livestock, perhaps owing to what Utah State University ecologist Dan MacNulty calls “predatory senescence” — older wolves simply have a harder time chasing down wild game, and fat, placid cattle make a tempting alternative. So


expected. Twenty-one years after the first wolves were moved from Western Canada to Yellowstone, there are approximately 1,900 wolves in the Northern Rockies and Pacific Northwest, plus another 3,610 in the robust Great Lakes population and 65,000 in Canada and Alaska. Wolves have already been delisted in Montana and Idaho, which now have hunting and trapping seasons. They’ve also been delisted in the eastern third of Oregon (without legal hunting or trapping), and the state has removed the species from its endangered species list.

When wolf numbers are very low — during the early days of reintroduction, or in small, isolated populations like the Mexican wolf subspecies — genetic diversity is precious and every breeding adult with unique genes can be vital to recovery, says MacNulty. But at awas just something electric about doing it. It united everybody. My production designer had to be on set, my costume designer. The camera operator and our cast had to really get into our choreography. Generally, in filmmaking, everybody’s off doing their own things, and then you shoot a scene three, ten seconds at a time. Here, it was like putting on a play every day. It was great.

You can hide edits more easily these days. What was the longest continuous physical take?

The longest take was the second scene: Elliot walking from the elevator bank on his floor, sitting down at his desk and then having that conversation with Samar. And that lasted all the way until he first logs in with his computer. And that was the first

The reason most of us have seen little gain from economic growth over the last three decades is that the rich have rigged the rules to ensure that money flows upward. Through their control of trade policy, Federal Reserve Board policy, and other key levers of government, they have structured the market to weaken the bargaining power of ordinary workers and benefit the CEOs and Wall Street crew. As a result, the typical worker has seen almost none of the gains from economic growth over the last four decades.

Most of this rigging comes in before-tax income. The bigtopical context wrapped in celebrity packaging allows the audience to remain connected to matters impacting our democracy and life on this planet in whatever ways we can stomach.

Comey decided to inform Congress that he would look again into Hillary Clinton’s handling of emails during her time as secretary of state for two main reasons: a sense of obligation to lawmakers and a concern that word of the new email discovery would leak to the media and raise questions of a coverup.

The rationale, described by officials close to Comey’s decision-making on the condition of anonymity, prompted the FBI director to release his brief letter to Congress on


the campaign spotlight was in July, when he announced that he had finished a months-long investigation into whether Clinton mishandled classified information through the use of a private email server during her time as secretary of state. After he did so, the denunciation was loudest from Republican nominee Donald Trump and his supporters, who accused the FBI director of bias in favor of Clinton’s candidacy. There was also grumbling within FBI ranks, with a largely conservative investigative corps complaining privately that Comey should have tried harder to make a case.

This time the loudest criticism has come from Clinton and her supporters, who said Friday that Comey had provided too little information about the nature of the new line of investigation and allowed Republicans to seize political ground asmind about an investigation based on evidence that he acknowledges may not be significant.”

In Comey’s note to employees, he seemed to anticipate that his decision would be controversial. “In trying to strike that balance, in a brief letter and in the middle of an election season, there is significant risk of being misunderstood,” Comey wrote.

Low Spirit

Low Spirit Recordings was a German techno record label.

History
Founded in 1986 by Maximilian Lenz (Westbam), Fabian Lenz (DJ Dick), William Röttger, Klaus Jankuhn and Sandra Molzahn. The first record was WestBam's 17 - This Is Not a Boris Becker Song which reached #1 in the Berlin dance music hitlist. Low Spirit became acquainted with the Love Parade event from its early years and the theme for its 1999 event, titled Sonic Empire, has reached the top of the German single charts. The label was later praised for "having made German techno history" by "Raveline" magazine.

In the 1990s, Low Spirit was also owner of the event Mayday. The label was shut down and all future distributions by Low Spirit were taken over by Kontor Records inDefendants' Reply. The Court GRANTS Plaintiffs' Motion and has reviewed Plaintiffs' Surreply in making the determination on the issue of what law applies in this controversy.

Background
The case before the Court relates to a series of (international and national) agreements between Plaintiffs and Bannai, acting as a principal on behalf of several companies. The Motion relates only to one agreement between Plaintiff Bonham Business Corp. ("Bonham") and Northgate Distribution Services Limited ("Northgate"). The agreement was executed by Mr. Neofytos Savvidis for Bonham and by Mr. Bannai for Northgate, acting as a principal for Northgate. The Northgate Ore Agreement (also referred to as the "West Virginia Ore Agreement") provides for the sale of ore by Northgate to Bonham. The Agreement includes an arbitration clause, requiring the arbitration of all claims

History

In 1992 the idea of creating a company that would provide world class air transportation in the Dominican Republic was born. The visionary idea at that time was to utilize helicopters to facilitate a variety of solutions otherwise non-existent in the country. The primary idea was to be able to offer helicopter charter flights for business transportation and tourist sightseeing.

For this reason, Helidosa was created and since then has become the largest part 135 air carrier helicopter company in the Dominican Republic and a pioneer in the aviation industry. Helidosa has become synonymous for customer service quality and safety, obtaining high brand recognition worldwide.

Mission

Provide corporate, tourist and ambulance air transport with qualified staff and high technology in compliance with the industry standards, offering a high


The loss of Christopher Hitchens leaves the world a far poorer place, but perhaps Salman Rushdie's tribute to him – "A great voice falls silent. A great heart stops" – is only half right. Of course we can only imagine what he would have gone on to say if he had been spared another day, another week or another year, but a voice like that of Hitchens never really falls silent.

Readers around the world will be turning to their shelves today to consult his elegant memoir, Hitch-22, his anti-religious polemic, God Is Not Great, and his campaigner's manual, Letters to a Young Contrarian, but in the age of the internet, a writer as prolific as Hitchens leaves pearls everywhere.

Of course he's in the Guardian, reflecting on the treatmentof journalism in fiction, defending his friend Martin Amis, hymning Brideshead Revisited and examining the decade since 9/11.

But here he is in Vanity Fair, too, with his "first raw reactions to being stricken" with cancer of the oesophagus, his analysis of Everybody Pray for Hitchens Day, and his final meditation on the myth of Friedrich Nietzsche's maxim "Whatever doesn't kill me makes me stronger." Here he is, too, reviewing Hilary Mantel's Wolf Hall in the Atlantic and reacting to Tony Blair's faith foundation in the New Statesman.

Never camera-shy, he also leaves his legacy on celluloid too. Highlights include his Freedom Festival lecture on "the Jesus myth", his interview with Anderson Cooper on god and cancer on CNN, and various highlights packages of his finest, pithiest, most caustic moments.

(CNN) A judge in Massachusetts on Friday sentenced a teenager to serve at least 40 years in prison for killing, raping and robbing his high school math teacher.

Philip Chism,17, stood in handcuffs, his face expressionless, as sentences by Superior Court Judge David Lowy were read aloud, following emotional victim impact statements from family and friends of the slain teacher, Colleen Ritzer.

"He is pure evil, and evil can never be rehabilitated," said Peggie Ritzer, Colleen's mother, furious because Chism would eventually be eligible for parole. "We will never getHiSeq X

The underlying lawsuit is an unlawful detainer action initiated by Mills Land and Water Company concerning land it owns in Huntington Beach. In 1956 Mills leased the property to Wilshire Oil Company to operate a petroleum storage depot. The lease was for 25 years with an option for another 25 years. One of the lease's terms provided Mills would not unreasonably withhold consent to an assignment of the lease.
Wilshire was succeeded by Gulf Oil Corporation. In April 1982, Gulf told Mills of its intention to assign the lease. One year later, Gulf formally asked for consent to an assignment to Thrifty Oil Company and its subsidiary Golden West Refining Company.
Ultimately, Mills consented to theconsent on July 28, 1983. It is also of note the monetary compensation provided in the lease is very unfavorable to Mills.
Subsequently, Mills went through a shake-up in management. On October 1, 1983, 51.1 percent of the shareholders discharged all the directors. Again, according to the pleadings and discovery in the underlying case, an impasse developed. The Moore family, led by Eugenia Moore and her son Robert London Moore, Jr., also an attorney, could elect one director and the Wynn family could elect another. But a third director could not be elected without shareholder Kathleen Murphy's cooperation.
Murphy was the subject of guardianship proceedings in Nevada. The Moore faction and Murphy's temporary guardian, Michael Murphy, apparently sought the court's permission in Carson City, Nevada, to allow the temporary guardian


to vote Kathleen Murphy's shares.
In the Nevada proceedings both Moores declared Wynn had violated his fiduciary and legal obligations to Mills when he consented to the lease assignment. It was also alleged Wynn and Barrow met secretly with Gulf representatives and failed to follow the law with respect to director's meetings. Finally, the Moores contended the consent to the lease assignment was adverse to Mills' financial interest.
On November 7, 1983, the Carson City court granted the petition, permitting Kathleen Murphy's temporary guardian to vote on her behalf. The court did not reach the substance of the claims of mismanagement. Rather, it simply found the order was necessary to break the impasse in Mills' management.
A special meeting of Mills' shareholders was scheduled for November 21, 1983. Wynn sent aletter to the shareholders explaining the lease assignment and expressing his opinion he and Barrow had exercised their best judgment concerning Mills' legal obligations in the lease assignment matter. Nevertheless, a new board was elected: Robert Moore, Thomas E. Murphy and Wynn (whose family held sufficient shares to reelect him). Wynn was *123 removed as president of Mills. Robert Moore became president and Eugenia Moore corporate secretary.
Shortly thereafter, the board sought the opinion of counsel concerning the consent to the lease assignment by Mills' "former president." In October 1984, Mills filed the underlying unlawful detainer action against Gulf. In substance, Mills contends Gulf breached the lease agreement when it assigned the lease to Thrifty and Golden West.
Wynn continued to attend formal meetings of the board. However, the record


suggests hostility towards Wynn by the current Mills controlling faction. He was apparently never directly informed Mills had served a three-day "Notice to Quit" on Gulf or commenced the unlawful detainer action. But he was present at a board of directors meeting where retention of a law firm in contemplation of litigation was authorized. When deposed, Eugenia Moore testified Wynn improperly executed the consent without her signature as corporate secretary and discussed the matter with Barrow without formal notice to her. Robert Moore, during his deposition, similarly condemned Wynn's actions.
Further, at Wynn's deposition, Mills' counsel sat across the table from Wynn, while at the Moore's depositions, Mills' counsel sat next to them. Wynn did not have a lawyer at the deposition. Mills' counsel called examination of Wynn "cross-examination."The examination itself was frequently antagonistic.
Before he was disqualified, Donald C. Smaltz was counsel for Thrifty and Golden West. Smaltz first met with the Moores and Mills' counsel in October to discuss the impending lawsuit, which was actually filed on October 19, 1984. According to Smaltz, the meeting confirmed his impression Wynn had been ousted from the presidency and there had been a corporate shake-up.
Smaltz issued deposition subpoenas on October 23, 1984, including one to Wynn. Smaltz found a listing for Wynn in the "Parker Directory of California Attorneys" and telephoned him the same day. Smaltz said he was litigation counsel for Thrifty and Golden West and was seeking a convenient deposition date. Wynn said he was not aware of the suit or the notice to quit. Smaltz


rent increase.
Wynn also said the Moores were responsible for Wynn's ouster; he was ousted as president after the Moores obtained the proxies of other shareholders. Wynn discussed his relationship with various people, including Robert London Moore, Sr., and Barrow. He revealed there were minutes and transcripts of shareholder meetings and named the shareholders. Wynn identified an accounting firm's report analyzing Thrifty and Golden West's net worth. Wynn revealed a law firm (not otherwise involved in the case) was retained to review his actions after he was no longer president. However, Wynn apparently did not describe any communications with these attorneys to Smaltz. Further, Smaltz maintains he neither requested nor received any corporate documents nor any confidential communications between Wynn and Mills' counsel. And, Smaltz and Wynn apparently agreedWynn had no control over the litigation or management of Mills.
But Smaltz learned of the Nevada guardianship proceedings and, as a result, obtained the affidavits of the Moores from that proceeding. Arguably, these affidavits contradict deposition testimony in the current lawsuit concerning whether the Moores wished to extract a higher rent from Gulf in exchange for a consent to the assignment of the lease.
Through October and early November 1984, discovery proceeded on the underlying lawsuit. On November 15, 1984, Wynn's deposition was taken. Mills' counsel began by asking him if he had spoken with Smaltz. Wynn said Smaltz had called him and they met and discussed the circumstances of the lease assignment. He also said he had discussed his conversations with Barrow and Eugenia Moore on the same


subject. Wynn said he had not been concerned about speaking with Smaltz because all his actions were a matter of record.
Mills' counsel completed Wynn's deposition. However, on November 16, 1984, Mills refused to proceed with discovery due to the conversation between Smaltz and Wynn. On November 20, Mills served Smaltz with a deposition subpoena.
*125 On November 21, Thrifty and Golden West made an ex parte application for an order to enforce two prior discovery orders and quash Smaltz's subpoena. In response, Mills contended it would be bringing a motion to disqualify Smaltz. The court took all matters off calendar pending Mills' motion and permitted Smaltz's deposition to go forward.
The deposition occurred on November 28. Smaltz, asserting it was work product, objected to the production of memoranda concerning hischaracter his own in this cinematic adaptation which shows McCall leading a decent life at a Home Depot-like store named Home Mart where he befriends its many employees, and who spends his time outside work at his bare apartment or at the local diner reading a book.

Fatal accidents take place at a higher rate in these mines than in the infamously deadly China mines, as private operators seek to maximise profits by avoiding expenses on safety gear and equipment.

Story Developing Mongolia's coal industry

Officially, a dozen miners die in the Nalaikh mine tunnels each year. However, since Nalaikh lies largely beyond the authorities’ control, it is impossible to ascertain how many people are buried in the makeshift pits – many of which lack even the basic safety feature of timber supports.

The Mongolian Mine Rescue Service has recorded 422 peak-season accidents since 2000, with collapses and explosions claiming at least 175 victims. With an annual production of 700,000 t, this means there is one


of the Soviet-backed state economy stopped providing the mine with subsidies.

Today, among the ruins of the old state mining company’s operations – old office buildings, traces of a railway line and a skeleton of an old loading station – more than 200 active mine shafts run beneath the ground. Only 26 of these are authorized, according to the office of the governor of Nalaikh district.

After the state mine closed down, it was divided by Mongolian authoroities into small pots and then privatised. However, demand for coal among the nation’s citizens has grown continually, and the government has made few signs of action towards restricting the expansion of illegal mining.

The mining activity at Malaikh has attracted thousands of Mongolians eager for jobs and above-average wages. Up to 2000 handfigures from the mining ministry. The government expects to increase exports to 83 million t by 2028 through the development of large untapped deposits, such as lie under the massive Tavan Tolgoi basin, where official estimates put total coal reserves at more than 6 billion t.

Nalaikh does not feature among Mongolia's most appealing coal reserves, and rarely makes it onto the agenda of key conferences held in the country, such as Coal Mongolia. Yet there is still plenty of coal left to dig out. TS, which legally owns some mining licenses in the western part of the basin, estimates there are coal reserves of about 24 million t, and authorities are backing a project by the company to restart industrial mining operations at the site.

However, TS has faced


their homeland. Cuba was very close to the US. The US decided to stop the influence of communism in Cuba. They tried to overthrow the Cuban government but failed. This failed attempt was called the Bay of Pigs.

Cuba tried to seek help from the communist homeland, USSR. Nikita Khrushchev, the Soviet premier was pleased to help. He placed a huge amount of missiles to Cuba. This was done for 2 reasons. First, it helped in protecting the island but secondly and more importantly, it helped the Soviets in placing nuclear missiles in close vicinity of the USA. This acted as a countermeasure for the nuclear missiles present in Turkey and Italy.

American intelligence learned about the missiles but they were too late. The parts for the missiles were alreadyin Cuba. An emergency meeting was held on October 16, 1962, to discuss the situation at hand. They wanted to invade the island of Cuba, targetting the missiles sites first. However, John F Kennedy took a more strategic step. He decided to intercept missile shipments from USSR which were making their way to Cuba.

Soviets, at first, considered the blockade as an act of war, but the US begged to differ. They called it a quarantine, which would not block basic necessities to Cuba. Khrushchev wrote an angry letter to John F Kennedy. He stated that the blockade was an act of aggression which may push mankind towards the brink of destruction via nuclear missiles.

The US demanded the removal of missiles from Cuba. While the Soviets and the Cubans


stated that the missiles were only defensive. The US prepared themselves for a probable invasion.

What happened during the 13 day period?

On the 27th of October, 1962, a Soviet submarine was hit by a small-depth charge. This charge was released by the US Nay in order to signal the submarine to come up.

The submarine was too deep to communicate with the surface. They believed that the war had begun. They prepared to launch a nuclear torpedo to the surface.

The launch had to be decided unanimously by 3 officers. The captain, the political officer, and the second-in-command. The captain and the political officer authorized the launch. But Vasili Arkhipov refused. This decision single-handedly prevented the total annihilation of the world.

The driving force is transmitted to the fixing belt by the friction against the pressing roller, so that the fixing belt slides on the outer peripheral surface of the metallic heat conductor.
Since both ends of the nip forming unit in the width direction of a recording sheet (hereinafter, referred to as a main-scanning direction) are fixed and supported by the side plates of the fixing device, the center of the nip forming unit in the main-scanning direction may be largely bent in a direction in which the center moves away from the pressing roller due to the pressure which is applied from the pressing roller. As a result, both endsthe nip forming unit in the main-scanning direction protrudes toward the pressing roller in relation to both ends in the main-scanning direction in no-load state. As a result, when the nip forming unit is bent, the contact surface of the nip forming unit becomes flat.

Occurrence and distribution of VIP nerves in the nasal mucosa and tracheobronchial wall.
Nerves displaying vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) immunoreactivity were detected in the upper respiratory tract of guinea pigs, rabbits and cats. VIP nerves were numerous in the cat, less numerous in the rabbit and rare in the guinea pig. In the nasal mucosa, fine varicose VIP nerves were found to surround nasal glands and small blood vessels. In the tracheobronchial wall VIP nerves were observed around seromucous glands, blood vessels and smooth muscle. Ganglia located in the walls of the trachea and main bronchi contained clusters of VIP immunoreactive nerve cell bodies, conceivably representing the origin of the VIP fibres found in this region.the use of propolis-based products in the different dental areas has increased as well. Common oral cavity diseases include dental caries, gingivitis, periodontitis, and other diseases of the oral mucosa such as angular cheilitis, oral herpes, oral candidiasis, exfoliative glossitis, prosthetic stomatitis (denture stomatitis), and aphthous ulcer, among others.

Considering the enormous potential of propolis in terms of its varied activities evidenced in the literature, the purpose of this study is to review the literature in which both Brazilian green and red propolis uses in the different dental areas were scientifically demonstrated in evidence-based publications.

In addition to removing the 36-foot-long, 11-panel mural, the LePage administration announced that conference rooms bearing the names of American labor movement icons would be renamed.

Most of the artist's commission of $60,000 was paid from federal money, made available by transferring it to the state's account in the trust fund, according to the letter.

"We have reviewed the letter and are assessing what it may mean for the agency moving forward," said Adam Fisher, a spokesman for the Maine Department of Labor.

State officials said removal of the mural was needed to reflect a new image for the department, one not tilted toward organized labor. They said visitors to the lobby had complained that the mural is anti-business.

"The mural has been removed and is in storageawaiting relocation to a more appropriate venue," LePage's press secretary, Adrienne Bennett, said in a statement last week. "We understand that not everyone agrees with this decision, but the Maine Department of Labor has to be focused on the job at hand."

Maine AFL-CIO President Don Berry called it "a spiteful, mean-spirited move by the governor that does nothing to create jobs or improve the Maine economy."

Acting Maine Labor Commissioner Laura Boyett had earlier announced a contest to replace the names affixed to the conference rooms, which include Cesar Chavez and Frances Perkins.

Chavez founded the National Farm Workers Association. Perkins, the first woman to hold a Cabinet-level position in the United States, served as labor secretary under President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Occurrence of the new invasive insect Contarinia nasturtii (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) on cruciferous weeds.
Contarinia nasturtii (Kieffer) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), a common insect pest in Europe and a new invasive pest in North America, causes severe damage to cruciferous crops. In the United States, C. nasturtii was first reported in western New York in 2004. From 2005 to 2007, field surveys were conducted in western New York to investigate the occurrence of C. nasturtii in weeds that might serve as a reservoir for this pest. The results indicate that 12 cruciferous weed species were found in and around commercial vegetable crucifer plantings, and C. nasturtii emergence was detected from most of them. The number of C. nasturtii that emerged from the weeds was low and varied by species, year, and theproject and we will present material that informed the steering committee's deliberations and our infrastructure priorities.

Mr Joyce was born in Ireland and took over as chief executive of Qantas in 2008. Last month eyebrows were raised as his remuneration package almost doubled to nearly A$25m (£14.5m) following a significant rise in the Qantas share price.

"I think Australia is a great meritocracy. Where else in the world would you have an openly gay Irish man coming to this country to run probably the most iconic Australian brand in the world?" he said.

However, in March Australia's Immigration Minister Peter Dutton criticised Mr Joyce and other business leaders for intervening in the debate. And in May a man smeared a lemon meringue pie inMr Joyce's face during a public event, apparently in response to his pro-equal marriage stance.

The OUTstanding list, which has been running for five years, also names the chief executive of Campbell Soup, Denise Morrison, as the leading "Ally Executive" for her role in supporting members of the LGBT community in the workplace.

The list's authors said Ms Morrison had gone further than other executives in supporting diversity, through policies such as celebrating Pride events, offering a gender-neutral parental leave policy and urging the repeal of a measure in North Carolina requiring transgender persons to use bathrooms corresponding to the sex on their birth certificate.

reversal of fortunes as the Canadians began to settle into their new lines and create some great opportunities for themselves. New Jersey Devils prospect Blake Speers celebrated his 20th birthday in style by netting Canada’s first goal off of a beautiful pass by Stephens. Joseph picked up a secondary assist with a crafty takeaway to start the scoring play.

A few minutes later, Cirelli won a face-off and Stephens immediately scored another goal for the Canadians, giving them their first lead of the night at 2-1.

The Czech Republic responded about a minute later with a goal of their own, tying the game at 2-2. Canada regained the lead off of an absolutely stellar goal by Ottawa Senators prospect Thomas Chabot, assisted by Stephens and Cirelli.

Canada maintained the lead throughoutthe duration of the contest, winning by a final score of 5-3. Tomorrow they face their biggest challenge against an undefeated Team Sweden in the Semi-Final round.

Cirelli is a face-off machine. He is integral to the penalty kill and can be found on the ice any time Team Canada has a crucial face-off, especially in the defensive zone. His face-off win led to Stephens’ goal that gave Canada its first lead of the night. Perhaps what stands out most about Cirelli is his consistent effort and performance every night for Team Canada.

Beginning around 1879 the efforts to develop methods for treating burn wounds were fuelled by necessity. Before this time no specifik treatment existed. Following the revolutionary work by the Swiss doctor Jacques-Louis Reverdin in 1869, the first skin graft was performed in Denmark in 1870. Skin grafts were used to treat burn wounds until World War I but due to poor results, the method was abandoned for ointment treatments.

Dr. Desai at the very least should have realized that James Jr. was having neurological problems when, at fourteen months of age, he started to experience trembling in his legs and would not crawl or pull himself up as he had been doing. Appellants claim that Dr. Desai wrongly focused on ear infections as the cause of the child's problems and it was not until doctors at the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh examined James Jr. on February 27, 1996, that it was determined that he was suffering from hydrocephalus[2] and a malignant brain tumor, which had spread to the brain stem. Appellants claimed that, as a result of Dr. Desai's malpractice, James Jr. suffered, among other things, severe neurological damage, hydrocephalus, malignant tumor growth, physical and mental pain,the age of one year, a physical examination did not disclose any neurological problems and that on November 30, 1995, Dr. Desai noted her concern about the child and recorded that the child needed "close following." However, notwithstanding her request to see the child again in two weeks, James Jr. was not brought in to see Dr. Desai again until January 26, 1996, at which time she correctly started the process necessary for the February, 1996 admission of James Jr. to the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, where his problems were diagnosed.

A policeman in Kalyan said the man in the video runs a school at Titwala (File)

Thane Police in Maharashtra have started a probe after a video showing a man teaching his three-year-old son how to load a pistol went viral on social media.

The video showed the man, resident of Titwala in the district, how to load bullets in the pistol and how to hold it.

An official of local police station in Kalyan said the man in the video runs a school at Titwala. The official did not disclose his name.

As per the initial probe, he had shot the video at home using the licensed revolver of a relative.

Somebody who was apparently annoyed by the donation the man sought for school admission got hold of the video and circulatedIntensive method of assessment and classification of the bone marrow iron status: a study of 80 patients.

'Stay with me little angel': Tragic last moments of best friends, 15 and 16, found riddled with 36 bullets and lying bleeding on the street after mystery gunman opened fire

Bobbie Sartain, 16, and Raquel Gerstel, 15, shot dead Sunday morning

Neighbors rushed out to help girls after hearing barrage of gunfire;

Police said 36 shots were fired

Gunman still remains at large

Neighbours have told how they comforted a dying teen as she and her best friend lay dying on the street after being riddled with bullets.

Bobbie Sartain, 16, and Raquel Gerstel,15, were shot to death early Sunday morning and found on opposite sides of an Oakland road by horrified neighbours, bloody and riddled with bullets.

Resident Monique Jefferson said she held Sartain's hands and told her: 'Stay with me angel, you're safehad turned up at the mobile home of Bobbie's relative Chuck Briggs in the pre-dawn hours of Sunday.

Mr Briggs told them to go to sleep after Raquel began arguing with someone on her cell phone, according to Mercury News.

'They mouthed off a little,' Bambi Sartain told the newspaper. 'Her uncle told her to leave, and Raquel wanted to leave and Bobbie went with her. 'They were best friends. She'd do anything out of loyalty.'

Tragic: Raquel Gerstel, pictured left with a different friend, was still alive when neighbours rushed to her aide

The pair reportedly walked to nearby Union 76 gas station on High Street just before 5am.

'They didn't say where they (had been) or where they were going' Ms Sartain said.

The teens were found about an hour later having


been shot nearly 40 times. Neighbours who heard the gunshots ran outside and sat with the girls, holding their hands until help arrived.

Jayne Nayman said the barrage of bullets woke her up and her son, Jed Hamilton, 36, rushed out to Bobbie and Raquel's aide.

One of the girls was still alive, Nayman told the Mercury News.

'My son held her hand. 'I was afraid to go outside, but my son, he's fearless.'

Police arrived within 90 seconds, she said, after which her son ran back to their home, crying.

Raquel Gerstel: The 15-year-old was found 'full of bullets' by local resident Monique Jefferson, who told her: 'Stay with me angel. You¿re safe now'

'He said, "Don't go out there mom. Stay inside. The blood. It's bad."'

Resident Monique Jefferson also ran out afterspotting the girls on the pavement.

'(Gerstel) was full of bullets,' she told the San Francisco Chronicle . 'I kept telling her, 'Stay with me angel. You’re safe now.'"

But both teenagers soon succumbed to their injuries and were pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.

Ms Sartain said her daughter was an aspiring veterinarian.

'She was a good girl and she got caught up with something she shouldn't have been involved in,' she said. 'She was a teenager and kind of unruly, but I thought there was more time.'

'She had a bright future. I'll never be able to get over (her death) in my lifetime. She was my heart.'

Bobbie Sartain: The 16-year-old had had an argument with her mother's boyfriend on the night she was murdered

Raquel's father, Barton Gerstel, said that he

relationships were being formed outside the influence of major record companies. Performers signed to OWS form independent networks with other performers. This mobility of sound has operated in parallel with the immigration policies of the Howard government that have encouraged insularity and xenophobia.

7In other eras of racial inequality and discrimination, the independent record label has been not only an integral part of the music industry, but a springboard for political dissent. The histories of jazz and rhythm and blues capture a pivotal moment of independent entrepreneurialism that transformed new and strange sounds/noises into popular music. In monitoring and researching this complex process of musical movement and translation, the independent label has remained the home of the peripheral, the misunderstood, and the uncompromising. Soul music in the United Statesof America is an example of a sonic form that sustained independence while corporate labels made a profit. Labels like Atlantic Records became synonymous with the success of black vocal music in the 1960s and 1970s, while the smaller independent labels like Chess and Invicta constructed a brand identity. While the division between the majors and the independents increasingly dissolves, particularly at the level of distribution, the independent label remains significant as innovator and instigator. It retains its status and pedagogic function in teaching an audience about new sounds and developing aural literacies.

8OWS inked its well from an idealistic and collaborative period of label evolution. The punk aesthetic of the late 1970s not only triggered wide-ranging implications for youth culture, but also opened spaces for alternative record labels


and label identity. Rough Trade was instrumental in imbuing a spirit of cooperation and a benign mode of competition. A shift in the distribution of records and associated merchandizing to strengthen product association—such as magazines, fanzines and T-Shirts—enabled Rough Trade to deal directly with pivotal stores and outlets and then later establish cartels with stores to provide market security and a workable infrastructure. Links were built with ancillary agents such as concert promoters, press, booking agents, record producers and sleeve designers, to create a national, then European and international, network to produce an (under the counter) culture. Such methods can also be traced in the history of Postcard Records from Edinburgh, Zoo Records from Liverpool, Warp in Sheffield, Pork Recordings in Hull, Hospital Records in London, and bothGrand Central and Factory in Manchester. From the ashes of the post-1976 punk blitzkrieg, independent labels bloomed with varying impact, effect and success, but they held an economic and political agenda. The desire was to create a strong brand identity by forming a tight collaboration between artists and distributors. Perceptions of a label’s size and significance was enhanced and enlarged through this collaborative relationship.

9OWS acknowledged and rewrote this history of the independent label. There was a desire to fuse the branding of the label with the artists signed, released and distributed. No long term obligations on behalf of the artists were required. A 50/50 split after costs was shared. While such an ‘agreement’ appeared anachronistic, it was also a respectful nod to the initial label/artist split offered by


Rough Trade. Collaboration with artists throughout the process offered clear statements of intent, with idealism undercut by pragmatism. From track selection, sleeve design, promotion strategy and interview schedule, the level of communication created a sense of joint ownership and dialogue between label and artist.

10This reinscription of independent record history is complex because OWS’ stable of performers and producers is an amalgamation of dub, trance, hip hop, soul and house genres. Much of trans-localism of OWS was encouraged by its base in Perth. Metaphorically ‘off world’, Perth is a pad for international music to land, be remixed, recut and re-released. Just as Wellington is the capital of Tolkien’s Middle Earth as well as New Zealand, Perth is a remix capital for Paris or New York-based performers.

11The brand name ‘Offcollaboration is that not only was there a global spread of musicians, producers and designers, but they worked together in a series of strategic trans-localisms. There were precedents for disconnecting place and label, although not of the scale instigated by OWS. Fast Products, although based in Glasgow, signed The Human League from Sheffield and Gang of Four from Leeds. OWS was unique in signing artists disconnected on a global scale, with the goal of building collaborations in remixing and design. Gripper, from the north east of England, Little Egypt from New York, The Bone Idle from Vienna, Hull and Los Angeles, Looped for Pleasure from Sheffield, Barney Mullhouse from Australia and the United Kingdom, Ooblo from Manchester, Attache from Adelaide, Crackpot from Melbourne and DB Chills from Sydney


are also joined by artists resident in Perth, such as Soundlab, the Ku-Ling Bros and Blue Jay. Compact Disc mastering is completed in Sydney, London, and Perth. The artwork for vinyl and CD sleeves, alongside flyers, press advertising and posters, is derived from Manchester, England.

13These movements in the music flattened geographical hierarchies, where European and American tracks were implicitly valued over Australian-derived material. Through pop music history, the primary music markets of the United Kingdom and United States made success for Australian artists difficult. Off World emphasised that the product was not licensed. It was previously unreleased material specifically recorded for the label and an exclusive Australian first territory release. Importantly, this licensing agreement also broadened definitions and interpretations of ‘Australian music’. Such a critique and initiative wasimportant. For example, Paul Bodlovich, Director of the West Australian Music Industry (WAM), believed he was extending the brief of his organisation during his tenure. Once more though, rock was the framework, structure and genre of interest. Explaining the difference from his predecessor, he stated that:

14

[James Nagy] very much saw the music industry as being only bands who were playing all original music—to him they were the only people who actually constituted the music industry. I have a much broader view on that, that all those other people who are around the band—the manager, the promoters, the labels, the audio guys, the whole shebang—that they are part of the music industry too. (33)

15Much was absent from his ‘whole shebang,’ including the fans who actually buy the music and


attend the pubs and clubs. A diversity of genres was also not acknowledged. If hip hop, and urban music generally, is added to his list of new interests, then clubs, graf galleries, dance instructors and fashion and jewelry designers could extend the network of musical collaborations.

16A parody of corporate culture and a pastiche of the post-punk aesthetic, OWS networked and franchised itself into existence. It was a cottage industry superimposed onto a corporate infrastructure. Attempting to make inroads into an insular Perth arts community and build creative industries’ networks without state government policy support, Off World offered an optimistic perspective on the city’s status and value in a national and global electronic market. Yet in commercial terms, OWS failed.

17What OWS captures through its failures conveys more about musicfor organising culture and economics. It is always easy to affirm the specialness and difference of a city’s sound or music. While affirming the nation and rock, outsiders appear threatening to the social order. When pondering cities and electronica, collaboration, movement and meaning dance through the margins.

German DJ and producer Tomcraft has been a steady force in the progressive house and trance scene for a decade and I can see why. He has just released his latest track "Written High", along with 3 great remixes. The violin that enters a few minutes into the track is just perfect. The remix by Luigi Rocca takes this violin and creates a much deeper vibe, but its a great take on an already stellar song.

large firms cited perceived issues with Vista itself as one reason to delay upgrading.

Now as Microsoft prepares to release Windows 7 -- which is being lauded as a much more cohesive effort than Vista, including with better hardware support -- the company hopes that business partners will warm back up to a Windows upgrade. That's not the case, though, according to a recent survey by market research firm Dimensional Research, which found that most companies won't upgrade next year.

The firm writes, "Early beta testers are providing many glowing reports about the functionality and performance of Windows 7, especially compared to Windows Vista. But is corporate IT excited about the new operating system, or do they dread yet another release?"

Western was the City's insurer under a combined general liability and motor vehicle policy. Giron was employed by the City as a detective on its police force. At about 11:00 p.m. on April 11, 1968, Giron, acting in the course of his employment, while endeavoring to arrest Rael, shot him. Rael was then twenty years of age. The wound inflicted upon Rael was apparently relatively minor. Giron promptly reported the shooting to the City, but the City gave no notice thereof to Western until September 25, 1968, upon claim being made by Rael through his attorney against the City.
Rael filed suit against the City and Giron on April 11, 1969, seeking damages on the theory that the shooting was the result of recklessness and carelessness on


amended complaint was filed on January 29, 1970, and Giron's Answer thereto was filed on February 11, 1970.
On April 10, 1970, upon a motion by the City, the order of January 20, 1970 was stricken, but Rael was again given permission to file a second amended complaint. It appears the second amended complaint filed on January 26, 1970 and the answers thereto are the pleadings in which the issues in that suit are defined and presently before the trial court.
The City sought a dismissal of the first amended complaint on the grounds of untimely notice by the City and "that the actions by the defendant Giron were not of such a nature to be within the coverage provided by the policy," or, in the alternative, a summary judgmentnot intentionally shoot Rael. These findings are not attacked.
The shooting, in addition to being accidental, resulted in what at the time appeared to be an injury of an inconsequential nature. The bullet struck Rael on the right knee as he was running from Giron. Rael continued running until he arrived at a point where he had left his automobile. He drove from there to the home of a brother-in-law. He informed the brother-in-law of the shooting and the brother-in-law took him to the emergency room of a hospital. An attendant at the hospital called the police department and reported that a boy claiming to have been shot by a police officer had just been admitted.
A police officer went immediately to the hospital where he found Rael and his


father in the emergency room. In his report of investigation to the police department, the officer described the nature of the wound and the medical treatment given therefor as follows: "Ernie Rael was treated by Dr. S.M. Gonzales, for a superficial gun-shot wound on the right knee, was x-rayed then released from the hospital."
The Chief of Police considered the wound superficial, and in describing or defining a superficial wound, stated it consisted of grazing of the skin without any penetration. He also described the injury as "trivial" and "not serious," according to the hospital reports. He stated the reports received from the hospital showed "it was a minor pain."
In referring to a conversation between him and Rael's father, he testified:

Generally speaking, a side surface SS of a light guide plate LGP, opposite to a light incident surface SI, usually has an arc structure AA for respectively guiding a light beam B1 from the first light source group LS1 and a light beam B2 from the second light source group LS2 to the right eye E1 and the left eye E2 of the user. As shown in FIG. 2, due to the restricted divergence angle and position of the light emitting unit (e.g. light emitting diode) in the first light source group LS1, it is difficult for a light beam B1′ to reach an area of the arc structure AA that is further away from the first light source group LS1.
