Earlier this week, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and Deputy Defense Secretary Ashton Cartor announced that they would return a portion of their salaries in a sign of solidarity with the Pentagon's civilian employees who will be furloughed for 14 days due to the sequester. Carter said he would take a 20 percent pay in reduction through the end of September, but it is unclear how much of a cut Hagel will take.PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The Michale E. Keeling Center for Comparative Medicine and Research (KCCMR) at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center proposes to develop a two-year program to provide veterinarians with specialty training in the care and management of nonhuman primates in a biomedical research environment. Establishment of this program is in response to a recognized shortage of primate veterinarians due to the increased demands for this expertise in the biomedical research community. Over a period of five years, this program will support three residents that will be recruited from ACLAM-recognized Laboratory Animal Medicine (LAM) training programs. The curriculum established at the KCCMR includes an intensive core of rotations that spans the disciplines of clinical medicine, pathology, behavior and professional development.

Huston moved to Nevada in 1991 to work at a one-room K-8 tribal school on the Duckwater Shoshone Reservation, not far from the Duckwater School. She spent eight years there before moving to Las Vegas for a job teaching fourth grade at a much larger school.

That was a tough year for Huston. She had 40 students and never felt like she had the time to connect with them. Huston missed working with children one-on-one.

As it happened, the teacher at the Duckwater public school was retiring the next year. Huston applied and got the job. She moved back to the area with her three children — all of whom attended the school — and started in the fall of 1999.

For many years, she hadgovernment will be, and whether the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport will be scrapped or merged into another government department.

Serota said he would be disappointed if the culture department went, but on the whole he was optimistic. “I have to be.”

He added: “Brexit will make us have to paddle even harder. The strength of the arts in this country depends partly on international exchange and having good companies work here but also being able to draw on international talent just as countries abroad draw on British talent. The exchange of individuals in that way is very important.

“I think Boris did demonstrate he recognised that when he was mayor of London. When he made his first speech as prime minister in Manchester, he mentioned the arts high


in his list of priorities. So I think he understands and appreciates the value of the arts in themselves but also the value of what they can bring to communities.”

Serota became chair of ACE in 2017 after three decades in charge of Tate galleries. It has meant seeing far more theatre and dance than visual arts previews, which has been a thrill, he said.

Asked which shows he had enjoyed recently, he mentioned The Arrival at the Bush theatre in London, Matthew Bourne’s The Red Shoes at Sadler’s Wells and the National Theatre’s production of Three Sisters, a retelling of Chekhov by Inua Ellams that relocates the action to late-1960s Nigeria.

Chgo Sun-Times Greeley: Racism Will Make Obama Lose

In the Chicago Sun-Times on October 29, Andrew Greeley said that Barack Obama simply cannot beat racism to become president of the United States. He's consumed by all the talk of racism during this campaign and he sees it everywhere he turns. Of course, Greeley is right. There is a lot of talk of racism. But he isn't right about where it's coming from. You see, Greeley is claiming that racism is the sole reason that anyone wouldn't support Obama and he worries that racist talk is coming in torrents from Obama's opponents. The truth is, though, that the only people talking about racism is Obama and his most earnest supporters. People like Greeley.

Greeley and Obama's other supporters claim that


Democrat Party itself took up the anti-Obama bigotry.

The next assault came from his fellow Democrats. He was too quick, too disciplined, too well-organized to disappear as he should have. Therefore the litany of contempt began. He lacked experience. He was not ready to be commander in chief. No one knew how he would act in time of crisis. He needed more seasoning. Others had worked for similar causes in the heat of the day. They were entitled. All he had ever done was give one good talk.

But, do you notice something odd abut the anti-Obama arguments that Greeley lists as coming from his own Party? Did you notice that not one of those reasons are race-based complaints? Inexperience is not inherently a racist charge. Neither is the "unknown"of how Obama will "act in time of crisis." Neither is the charge that Obama jumped ahead of the line of people patiently waiting for the Democratic nod and that had been around longer than he.

Greeley also lists what he thinks were the Republican's reasons for being anti-Obama.

If his opponent was going to do him in, he would have to attack Sen. Obama's character, a favorite strategy of Republicans for the last 20 years. He was a celebrity, as shallow as the pop tarts. His eloquence was phony. He was an extreme liberal, he was a socialist, he was a terrorist. He was a threat to the American way of life, he was not like the rest of us. He was not a patriotic American. In a time


of crisis the country needed a proven, patriotic American.

Yet, again, Greeley seems to insist that this is all because of racism. In fact, one finds that few of the many negatives that Greeley claims folks heaped upon Obama are examples of obvious racism.

Yet, strangely, every single substantive reason that anyone would use to oppose Obama is ascribed firmly to racist intent as far as Greeley is concerned. Here's how Greeley sums up what he feels is the real intent behind each of the reasons he presented:

In other words, he faced the same race card that President Nixon played in 1972, only the card had another name now -- "experienced, patriotic, American."

So, every single reason offered to oppose Obama by Whites, Republicans, Hispanics, Democrats, women, men... they are ALLTen former National Football League (NFL) players have been charged in the Eastern District of Kentucky for their alleged roles in a nationwide fraud on a health care benefit program for retired NFL players.

The alleged fraud targeted the Gene Upshaw NFL Player Health Reimbursement Account Plan (the Plan), which was established pursuant to the 2006 collective bargaining agreement and provided for tax-free reimbursement of out-of-pocket medical care expenses that were not covered by insurance and that were incurred by former players, their wives and their dependents – up to a maximum of $350,000 per player. According to the charging documents, over $3.9 million in false and fraudulent claims were submitted to the Plan, and the Plan paid out over $3.4 million on those claims between June 2017 and


defendants allegedly fabricated supporting documentation for the claims, including invoices, prescriptions and letters of medical necessity. After the claims were submitted, McCune and Buckhalter allegedly called the telephone number provided by the Plan and impersonated certain other players in order to check on the status of the false and fraudulent claims.

This case was investigated by the FBI and is being prosecuted by the Health Care Fraud Unit of the Criminal Division’s Fraud Section and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Kentucky. The investigation included efforts by various FBI Field Offices and Resident Agencies, including: Augusta, Georgia; Birmingham and Mobile, Alabama; Cleveland, Ohio; Chicago, Illinois; Columbia, South Carolina; Dallas and Houston, Texas; Denver, Colorado; Jackson, Mississippi; Lexington, Kentucky; New Orleans, Louisiana; Miami, Jacksonville and Tampa, Florida;withdraw from the Methodist Conference. The UMC claimed title to the property, based on the local church's hierarchical relationship with the national church and based on several sections of The Book of Discipline of the United Methodist Church ("The Discipline"). The Discipline contains the governing rules of the UMC, and it requires that all property held by an unincorporated local church be held, in trust, for the use of both the local church and the UMC. At trial, the defendant members of the local church argued that the property rules set out in The Discipline did not apply to the local church property for two reasons: (1) the local church had not been in a hierarchical relationship with the UMC and (2) the property on which the local


of "This Community," there is no consistent or clear evidence regarding the intent of the grantors or the exact meaning of the designation. Therefore, the 1909 deed is void, and title to the original two acres on which the local church is located remained in the 1909 grantors.
The 1978 deed purported to convey the same two acres as the 1909 deed and two additional acres to three named trustees, who were described as "Trustees for the Union Chapel at Haney's Chapel, their successors and assigns."[5] The UMC argues that the trustees named in the 1978 deed were trustees for Haney's Chapel United Methodist Church and were duly elected and recognized at a Methodist "charge conference." However, the members of the local church argue that the three trustees representedinterest by the national church. In St. Paul, extrinsic evidence was also used to determine the grantor's intent, because the deed conveying the property to the local church was ambiguous. Id. at 872. Despite the rules contained in the discipline of the national church, this Court held that the evidence supported the trial court's finding that the grantor had intended to convey the property to the local church free from any control of the national church. Id.
Examining the circumstances existing when the 1978 deed was executed, it appears the grantors in this case, like the grantors in St. Paul, clearly intended to convey the property to the local church and to ensure that the national church could not gain title to the property. The best indication of this


comes from the fact that the 1978 deed was prepared immediately after the 1978 grantors were told by the UMC that the national organization held equitable title to the local church property. In response to this, a local attorney was asked to draw up the 1978 deed in order to correct any problems that existed in the 1909 deed and to carry out the intent of the original 1909 grantors. The evidence also indicates that the trustees listed in the 1978 deed understood that the property belonged to the local church and was not to be transferred to the UMC. Mattie Brown, one of the trustees listed in the 1978 deed, testified that she and the other trustees were later asked by the UMC to "sign over thehad typical features of raised ICP and microprolactinoma. Her initial management with cabergoline resulted in biochemical and radiological improvement with persisting headache. Her visual fields also worsened gradually along with the development of papilledema, prompting us to look for an alternate etiology. She was diagnosed to have IIH as per modified Dandy criteria and acetazolamide resulted in complete normalization of her symptoms and visual fields.\[[@ref4]\]

Idiopathic intra-cranial hypertension is an entity without clear pathogenetic mechanisms. Decreased CSF absorption or elevated venous pressure leads to elevation in the ICP and the characteristic features of the condition. The term pseudotumor cerebri is not in vogue to remove the stigma associated with a tumor and benign intra-cranial hypertension is also not popular, due to the understanding that IIH is not benign, if

Pedro Vargas, a 43year-old resident of the apartment building, set a combustible liquid on fire to start the blaze Friday evening, police spokesman Carl Zogby said. The building manager and his wife noticed smoke and ran to the apartment. Vergas came out and shot several times, killing both of them, according to the police account. Vargas then went to his fourth-story balcony and fired 10 to 20 shots in the street, killing a man who was parking a car outside, Zogby said. Then, Vargas went down to the third floor, kicked the door in on another apartment and killed a man, his wifeand their teen daughter. Police said he forced his way into an apartment and took two people hostage at gunpoint. A crisis team was able to briefly establish com munication with Vargas. Sgt. Eddie Rodriguez said negotiators and a SWAT team tried talking with him from the other side of the door of the unit where he held the hostages. Rodriguez said the talks eventually just fell apart.

By AMANDA WILLIAMSONawilliamson@lakecityreporter.comSwimmers dotted the Ichetucknee State Park head-spring Friday afternoon, their relaxed bodies buoyed by the water. From the middle of the spring, a mother called to her daughter sitting on the rocky


edge. Barely acknowledging her mothers call, the childs hands danced after the silver slivers of fish beneath her. Though the scene played out like a normal summers day, con-troversy bubbled beneath the sur-face. Before the start of this years tubing season, the park added fill dirt to the walkway leading from the parking lot to the headspring. But the rainy months of June and July followed closely after, caus-ing the beige sugar sand to wash into the Ichetucknee headspring. As the sand pools into the water, it causes a cloudy, milky appearance, similar to when a large group of people stirs the floor of the spring. Concerned citizens raised the alarm, vocal-izing possible detrimental effects of importing sand into the area. Photographs were sent to the Lake Citycontrol the flow of the sand, adding wood planks along the edge of the path. In theory, the planks would keep the sand from flowing down the trail and into the springhead, but Cory-Odgen said she knew the planks wouldnt completely stop the water. Patches of sand in the vegetation along the path show that the planks can really only stop so much, especially after recent tor-rential downpours. The question was raised whether the park selected the best time of the year to add the sand, as the start of spring season precedes the wet summer months. There was no way to know what nature was going to bring as far as rainfall and the amounts, said Russell Simpson, ombuds-man for the Florida Department of Environmental Protection Northeast


District. The answer to your question is that safety of our visitors is paramount for the entire Florida state park service. Simpson added that DEP wouldnt do anything to harm to the naturalness that is a part of the states park systems. Former Ichetucknee park ranger Rick Hughes said any of the park rangers will tell you that theres an erosion problem at the parks north end. While he was employed, the staff was not allowed to move soil from one part of the park to another for fear of cross-contamination of the soil. However, the material used at Ichetucknee  called archer fill  doesnt even come from the state parks property. Its loose dirt that runs right down into the spring, he said. Because theres alwaysbeen an erosion problem, I dont under-stand why they brought in fresh sand before they fixed the prob-lem. During the past 10 years of Hughes employment, he assist-ed in a project that cleaned the Ichetucknee springhead of excess sand using 5-gallon buckets. He estimated the spring started at 13 feet deep, and ended at 35 feet deep. We were pretty much successful, and now theres new sand coming in, Hughes said. According to Cory-Ogden and park biologist Ginger Morgan, the fill material and the pit it came from are clean, to the best of their knowledge. However, in light of citizen concerns about the fill material carrying contami-nants, the park staff has asked that the company send over a test sample of the sand. Ichetucknee Springs State Park


pipelines need state and federal regulatory approvals and would not start operating until 2017. FPL proposed another pipeline plan that the state Public Service Commission scuttled in 2009, but FPL vice president Mike Sole said the new project is dif-ferent from the earlier pro-posal  in part because the earlier line would have been built primarily to serve FPL. Theres tremendous benefits to the state as a whole and natural gas users of this state, Sole said of the new plans. FPL announced in December that it was seek-ing proposals from pipe-line companies. The proj-ect is broken nto two seg-ments, with one running from Alabama to Osceola County and the other run-ning from Osceola County to Martin County. The roughly $3 billion northern segment would total 465 miles,includ-ing 214 miles in Florida. It would start at a site in Alabama where natural gas comes from differ-ent parts of the country. FPLs parent company, NextEra Energy Inc., and Texas-based Spectra Energy Corp. would enter into a joint venture on the pipeline. Gas would go to an Osceola County hub, which also would tie in with other pipelines. A NextEra Energy subsidiary would then own and operate a new, 126-mile pipeline that would go to an FPL plant in Martin County. That pipeline is estimated to cost $550 million. In all, FPL said, proposed corridors for the pipelines include parts of 16 counties. For the northern pipeline, those counties are Madison, Hamilton, Suwannee, Columbia, Gilchrist, Levy, Alachua, Marion, Lake, Sumter, Orange, Polk and Osceola. For the southern


gas is cleaner, which helps utili-ties meet environmental standards. Gas also has been relatively inexpensive  a sit-uation that utilities expect to continue with the extrac-tion of gas from shale for-mations in various parts of the country. Shammo said the northern pipeline would carry natural gas that comes from Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas and Oklahoma and that it also could include gas from Ohio and Pennsylvania. Much of Floridas natural gas sup-ply currently comes from the Gulf of Mexico and Mobile Bay. Jim Saunders is a staff writer for the News Service of Florida.

The web of life is so intercon-nected that the loss or decline of one species upsets the balance of everything else within that system. Native plants have survived for centuries in their own habitats, and they have been kept under control by weather, insects, disease, fire and other naturally occurring constraints. Exotic plants, also called non-native plants, originated somewhere else and ended up in Florida after the Europeans arrived. Exotic plants include most of the plants that we survive on and that our economy depends on such as citrus, vegetables, fruits and orna-mental flowers. The big threat to Floridas natural areas occurs when one of those immigrant exotics starts to grow out of control, taking over habitats and crowding out native plants that are less aggres-sive.

Also, the school must be in a district that participates in the National School Lunch Program, as well as submit an annual application. Five schools were also selected in Alachua County for the program. However, Union County, Suwannee County, Gilchrist County and Hamilton County did not have any participating schools. The Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program began as a pilot project created by Congress in 2002. It provided funds to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables in four states Indiana, Ohio, Michigan and Iowa. The following school year, Congress elected to expand the program and make it permanent under the National School Lunch Act. That


year four states were added. In 2008, the program went nationwide, finally reaching Florida. According to Coughlin, the program is meant to combat childhood obesity by teaching healthy eating habits. The district receives $50 per student each school year to purchase a variety of produce, which currently comes from Gordon Food Service or KCs Produce. Coughlin plans to serve the snacks three days a week until April. Many students do not have the opportunity to try certain products, and this program gives them the chance.

Euralille: The Making of a New City Centre
Koolhaas, Nouvel, Portzamparc, Vasconi, Duthilleul: Architects
Editors Espacé Croise and Isabelle Menu,
Birkhauser, 1996

Euralille is regarded as the most spectacular architectural and urban planning project in Europe of the last five years. The core of the recently completed plans for this large, completely new city quarter was the TGV station, stop for the «Eurostar» train between London and Paris. The master plan of Rem Koolhaas emerged from an international competition as the winning entry ahead of works by Vittorio Gregotti, Norman Foster, Oswald Mathias Ungers, and others. This plan forms the framework for the sensational buildings by Christian de Portzamparc (office tower for Credit Lyonnais), Claude Vasconi (World Trade Centre), Jean Nouvel (shopping and office center),Jean-Marie Duthilleul (TGV station), and Rem Koolhaas (congress center and rock concert hall).

The book describes the creation of the new quarter, outlines the design processes, and shows extensively the individual buildings. The documentation is supplemented by floor plans, structural drawings, and other technical information. In a series of interviews the architects comment upon their work and explain the backgrounds of their plans. Well-known critics such as Stanislaus von Moos, Jean-Louis Cohen, Jean Attali, and finally Rem Koolhaas himself establish a theoretical context for Euralille and discuss the results.

The upstart AFL had been poaching NFL players; the old guard got nervous, struck a deal to merge the leagues, and initiated a championship game. On Jan. 15, 1967, the NFL champion Packers hammered the AFL's Chiefs 35-10 thanks to wideout Max McGee's seven catches for 138 yards and two touchdowns. McGee had caught only four passes all season, and he was convinced he wouldn't even play in the game, so he snuck out and partied all night the night before. When Lombardi called his name, to replace Boyd Dowler, who got hurt early in the game, the seriously hungover McGee was stunned. "I figured he'd just heard I had overstayed curfew," he said. B iometrics. Super Bowl surveillance science. Everyone who walked through the gates at SuperBowl XXXV in Tampa had their picture taken by a hidden camera. The images were translated into numerical values -- don't ask me how, it's all very complicated -- and checked against a database of known domestic criminals and international terrorists in just seconds. The system identified 19 petty criminals with outstanding warrants, but no arrests were made. The biometric systems will not be used this year because all the cameras are in Salt Lake City for the Olympics. But in the wake of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, security at Super Bowl XXXVI will be at an all-time high. The U.S. Secret Service has designated the game a "National Special Security Event" and has said security forces will be in the air and on the ground during


1976 and 1985. Go figure. One of the greatest Super Bowl moments featured Al Davis after the game. D avis and Rozelle. They started feuding in 1966, when Kansas City Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt and Dallas Cowboys owner Tex Schramm cut a deal to make Pete the commissioner of the combined AFL/NFL, leaving Al out in the cold. The bad feelings simmered for years, and boiled over in the early 1980s, when Davis sued and won the right to move his Raiders from Oakland to Los Angeles. When the Raiders won Super Bowl XV in January 1981, it set up one of the great early moments in reality television: two guys who'd been spitting venom at each other in the papers pretended to be civil in front ofthe cameras during the postgame trophy presentation ceremony. Rozelle handed Davis the trophy with two hands, in order to avoid having to shake his nemesis' hand. Davis mumbled, "Thanks very much, uh, thanks very much, commissioner," and Raiders players all over the locker room took out their cameras to capture the moment. E yeVision. After the Ravens' won Super Bowl XXXV, some people worried that their combination of a Ray Lewis-defense and a Trent Dilfer-offense signaled the end of entertaining football. Those people had forgotten a basic truth about the Super Bowl: It's not a game, it's a spectacle. The most exciting play in XXXV was Jermaine Lewis' 84-yard kickoff return for a Baltimore touchdown. Forget the run itself -- he bobbed, he weaved, he broke tackles, he


His best shot at playing in the big game might have come in his rookie year, when the Cowboys beat the Bills 52-17 in Super Bowl XXVII. H y-Vee. According to the Hy-Vee grocery store jingle, "There's a helpful smile in every aisle." In 1995, in Cedar Falls, Iowa, that smile was Kurt Warner's. After being cut by the Green Bay Packers in training camp, the former Northern Iowa quarterback took a night shift job stocking the shelves in the store for $5.50 an hour. Five years later, after stints in Europe and the Arena Football League, he was the NFL MVP and quarterback for the victorious St. Louis Rams in Super Bowl XXXIV. Warner stayed sharp during his Hy-Vee shifts by throwing rolls of toilet paper atvarious targets around the store. "You'd be up front and hear this big roar in the back and figure Kurt must be throwing the Charmin through something or other," a fellow employee remembered later. "The joke going around now is how to garnishee his wages for all the displays he broke." I ce Bowl. John Facenda, the legendary voice of NFL Films, called it a "cruel rite of manhood." Game-time temperature for the NFL title game between the Cowboys and Packers on Dec. 31, 1967, was 13 degrees below zero, with a wind-chill factor of minus 46. Somehow, barely able to feel their hands and feet, the teams scraped, slid and shivered their way through an epic battle. "It was so cold it almost seemed surreal," Bart Starr


remembered later. "We knew there was a game to play, but we didn't know how it could be done." Dallas took a 17-14 lead on a fourth-quarter 50-yard halfback option pass from Dan Reeves to Lance Rentzel. The Packers responded with a 68-yard drive that ended with Starr diving into the end zone behind guard Jerry Kramer's block as the last seconds of the game ticked away. Two weeks later, still smarting from the cold, and running on adrenaline from the win, Green Bay had to suit up for Super Bowl II against the Oakland Raiders. The game was an afterthought; beating the Cowboys and surviving the Ice Bowl was the real deal. "In the nine years Lombardi coached at Green Bay, I don't remember our team everhis distinguished career, had one pass thrown to him during Super Bowl XIII; it was late in third quarter in the end zone, with his team down seven to the Steelers, and he dropped it. "I just missed it," Jackie said after the game. "Maybe I should have caught it with my hands, but in that situation you are trying to be sure so you want to use your chest. Then I lost my footing, my feet ended up in front of me and I think the ball went off my hip. It's hard to remember -- those things happen so quickly." K enny King. Jim Plunkett was forced from the pocket on third-and-4 from the Raiders' 20. He didn't want to run, which was just as well,


because this was the old, worn-down-by-life Plunkett, so nobody else wanted to see him run either. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted fullback Kenny King releasing down the left sideline and threw it to him. It was a sad little floater, and it looked for all the world as if Eagles' DB Herman Edwards would pick it off, but somehow it found its way into King's hands. He turned upfield to find nothing but green in front of him and ran 80 yards for a touchdown, escorted every step of the way by wide receiver Bob Chandler. It was the longest pass play in Super Bowl history (until Green Bay's Antionio Freeman caught one for 81 yards in 1997). More importantly, the play helped keya 27-10 win for the Raiders, making them the first team to win the Super Bowl as a wild-card entry in the playoffs. A new logo for the nation, not just New Orleans. L ogo. In a typical year, the official Super Bowl logo design features the game's host city. After Sept. 11, this year has been anything but typical, of course, and so the NFL scrapped their original New Orleans design in favor of a red, white and blue outline of the United States with the roman numerals XXXVI emblazoned across it. According to designer Dan Simon, this image that "encompasses all of America" is his proudest professional achievement. M iami Touchdown Club. Three days before Super Bowl III, New York Jets quarterback Joe Namath went to


the assassin's stone-cold calm thing. Maybe it's a push. While we're thinking about it, the nominees for the best Super Bowl performance by a quarterback not named Bradshaw or Montana are: Joe Namath in III, whose right arm delivered parity and secured the future of the game; Phil Simms in XXI, when he completed 22 of 25 passes in the Giants' win over Denver; Doug Williams in XXII, when he led his team on five touchdown drives in the second quarter alone; Steve Young, who threw for six touchdowns and 325 yards in XXIX, and Kurt Warner, whose 414 yards were just barely enough to beat out the relentless Steve McNair in XXXIV. R ings. Here's the skinny on the jewelry: The NFL buys 125 rings at $5,000each for the winners. Losers' rings, most of which are never worn, cost half as much. Coaches, staff and cheerleaders get championship rings, and players' wives often get commemorative pendants. The most famous ring in Super Bowl history might be the "one for the thumb" that the Pittsburgh Steelers didn't earn. After they won their fourth Super Bowl in January 1980, the Steelers and their fans figured a fifth ring -- one for the thumb -- was just around the corner. They're still waiting. S eventeen and O. People forget, but for most of the perfect 1972 season the Dolphins weren't led by Bob Griese and his Clark Kent glasses; they were quarterbacked by 38-year-old veteran Earl Morrall. Miami had acquired Morrall for $100 from the Giants two


years earlier. When Griese went down with a fractured ankle in the fifth game of the season, the old man became one of the greatest bargains in football history, leading the Dolphins to nine straight wins and into the playoffs. Don Shula pulled Morrall for Griese at halftime of the AFC championship game, and Griese started and won Super Bowl VII, but Morrall's fingerprints are all over the Dolphins' unblemished record. Vince Lombardi's legendary work with the Packers led to his symbolizing NFL greatness. T iffany & Co. They make the Vince Lombardi Trophy awarded to the Super Bowl champs each year. The winners get permanent possession of the regulation-size sterling silver football mounted in a kicking position on a stand with three concave sides. The trophy stands20¾ inches tall, weighs 6.7 pounds, and has the words "Vince Lombardi" engraved on the base, along with the NFL emblem. It was designed by Tiffany and Co. vice president Oscar Riedener in 1967, who sketched the trophy's basic design during a meeting with Pete Rozelle. The trophy was named for Lombardi in 1970. It is created at Tiffany's silversmithing workshop in Parsippany, N.J., and takes approximately 72 man-hours to complete. There, don't say I never taught you anything. U gly. As in, "It got ugly in a hurry." In Super Bowl XXIV, the San Francisco 49ers scored eight touchdowns in a 55-10 win over the Denver Broncos. "It was so much fun, we couldn't wait to get back onto the field," Joe Montana explained afterward. Why 55?


The Niners weren't perfect: Mike Cofer missed an extra point after their second touchdown. V ince Lombardi. For eight years, between 1939 and 1947, he taught Latin, algebra, physics and chemistry, and coached the football, basketball and baseball teams at St. Cecilia High School in Englewood, N.J. Running the Packers must have felt easy by comparison. Bills kicker Scott Norwood pushed this 47-yard field goal wide right as time ran out in Super Bowl XXV. W ide right. Scott Norwood missed a last-second field goal that would have won Super Bowl XXV for the Bills. The kick was no gimme; it was from 47 yards out, his longest kick of the year, and farther than he had ever made on grass. Still, Norwood shouldered the blame, answering questionshad a picture of the last improbable moment of the catch -- Swann's eyes trained on the ball as it falls into his hands -- stapled to the wall in my bedroom for years and I looked at it every night before bed, wondering how he did it. There was some grumbling when Swann made the Hall of Fame last summer because he doesn't even rank in the NFL's top 20 all-time receptions leaders. Call it a vote for magic, call it a vote for style; he deserves to be in. Kevin Dyson comes up a yard short in Super Bowl XXXIV. Y ard. One yard. Two times in Super Bowl history a single yard has been the difference in the game. In Super Bowl XVI, down 20-7


to the Niners, the Cincinnati Bengals had the ball first and goal on the 3. They ran Pete Johnson twice, for two yards. Then they threw to Charles Alexander in the flat, where he was promptly thrown on his back just inches from the goal line by San Francisco linebacker Dan Bunz. On fourth, they gave the ball to Johnson again, and he was stuffed at the line for no gain. Final score: 26-21, 49ers. The second yard, in Super Bowl XXXIV, was more dramatic, because it came on the last play of the game. With six seconds left, Tennessee was on the Rams' 10-yard line and behind by seven. Quarterback Steve McNair hit wide receiver Kevin Dyson on a slant pattern at the 3. Dyson was headedfor the end zone when linebacker Mike Jones wrapped him up by the legs and hobbled him a foot shy of the goal line as time expired. Z ebras. Nine officials work the Super Bowl each year; seven on the field and two alternates. It's a coveted gig. To be eligible, you must have a minimum of five years' experience, and to be the referee, you need to have five years' experience at that position. The men in stripes are monitored by the league office all season long, and chosen based on the rating system that takes into account the correct calls, marginal calls, and incorrect calls they make in each game.

the Kherson canal or the port city of Mariupol? On the other hand, even such small-scale assaults would be risky. Ukraine would fight and the West would respond severely. If pushed back, Ukrainian forces would continue to shell Russian-occupied territory. As a result, a limited incursion could easily and quickly become a major land war—with all the consequences already discussed above.

Once again, however, such rational considerations will not necessarily persuade Putin. He will attack Ukraine or not attack Ukraine, not because either of these options will be good for Russia, but because he will see them as being good for him.

The comparison with the late Hitler is inescapable. Even as Germany was in flames, he—irrationally—believed in ultimate victory. The only thing that stopped him was force.

The moral for"Mike says he was in town searching for his natural birth parents." "If you don't believe him, you can ask his girlfriend." "That's true." "She told me." "Did she also tell you that he found his birth father?" "Well, what about his birth mother?" "Did Mike say if he found her?" "No, no." "He didn't say anything." "See, he can't." "He's a picture on a piece of paper." "And dead." "You should be ashamed of yourself." "Mike said his mother was killed 20 years ago, right after he was born." "Her name was Zoe Sharp." "I knew it." "That son of a bitch." "He killed her and now he got rid of the baby." "He protects his business, his reputation, and he doesn't have to share his wealth."


Operation Big Itch and Operation Drop Kick: Fleas and Infected Mosquitoes Dropped Over Black Towns 1

Operation Big Itch and Operation Drop Kick, the corps explored the feasibility of using fleas and mosquitoes as weapons. Declassified government documents apparently show tests were conducted, but with uninfected mosquitoes.

In 1956, the Corps conducted Operation Drop Kick when they released 600,000 uninfected mosquitoes from a plane at Avon Park Bombing Range, Florida. Within a day, the mosquitoes had spread a distance of between one and two miles and had bitten many people. The mosquitos were released across several Black communities in Florida. In the predominantly Black community of Avon Park, dozens of Black people became ill, and eight people died.

In 1958, further tests discovered at Avon Park AFB, Florida, mosquitoes could quicklydesigned to determine the feasibility of producing, storing, loading into munitions, and dispersing from aircraft the yellow fever mosquito (though these were not infected for the test). The second goal of the operation was to determine whether the mosquitoes would survive their dispersion and seek meals on the ground. When the mosquitoes were collected and it was determined that they were actively feeding on the blood of humans.

Operation Big Itch was a September 1954 series of tests at Dugway Proving Ground in Utah. The tests were designed to determine coverage patterns and survivability of the tropical rat flea (Xenopsylla cheopis) for use in biological warfare as a disease vector. The fleas were loaded into two types of munitions and dropped from the air. The E14 bomb and E23

An investigation on gastropod fauna was carried out on a tidal flat in the Nagura Estuary on Ishigaki Island, the Ryukyu Islands in 1989 and 1998 using similar methods. 470-480 quadrats covering ca. 1900 m2 were surveyed during low tides from February to April in each year. Of the total 19 species recorded, the ranges of eight species had varied significantly between the two surveys, with six species expanding their range and two species contracting their range. Percentage in abundance of muddy-bottom species and tropical (<29 degrees N) species increased significantly between the two years. Topography of the flat also changed: the mouth of the river was narrowed and the elevated sections of

Adams Debut Opponent Announced

Double Olympic Gold medallist Nicola Adams OBE will make her professional debut against Argentina’sVirginia Noemi Carcamoat the Manchester Arena next Saturday, live on BT Sport and BoxNation.

After a successful amateur career, the Double Olympic Gold Medallist will now embark on the next chapter of her remarkable story under the guidance of Hall of Fame promoter Frank Warren; starting with a four round Flyweight contest against Carcamo on Saturday 8th April.

Carcamo, 32, has won four of her seven bouts, losing two and drawing one. Nicknamed ‘La Tigresa’, she has racked up 32 rounds under her belt since making her professional debut against Silvia Moreno in 2015. This will be her first time fighting outside of her homeland.

A saphenous vein allograft was used to create an aortopulmonary communication in 16 infants with cyanotic congenital heart disease and ductus-dependent pulmonary blood flow. These grafts measured from 3 to 8 mm in diameter and were placed between the aorta and main pulmonary artery in eight patients, between aorta and right pulmonary artery in eight, and between aorta and left pulmonary artery in one (one child had two grafts). Before heparin was used, early in the series, four of these grafts occluded and three of the four infants died during attempted revision. Another infant died early from renal failure.

The Baltimore Ravens are coming off one of the most injury-riddled seasons an NFL team has suffered in recent memory. They lost quarterback Joe Flacco, defensive end Terrell Suggs, wide receiver Steve Smith, tight end Dennis Pitta, wide receiver Breshad Perriman and a handful of other players to season-ending injuries in 2015.

As the Ravens prepare for 2016, many of those players are still working themselves into shape. Perriman, the team's first-round pick in 2015, is nursing his second knee injury and may not be ready for the start of training camp. Flacco is still recovering from knee surgery.

Through all of that, head coach John Harbaugh is trying to get his team to persevere, and he's tapping into his family roots to do it. Harbaugh spoke with


[Educational practices developed by nurses in the Health Family Program in the Rio de Janeiro].
A descriptive study with qualitative approach was developed, aiming at analyzing the educational practices developed by nurses of the Health Family Program (HFP) in the communities living in the shanty town "Complexo do Alemão", located in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Data were collected in 2004, using observation and semi-structured interviews with 12 nurses of the HFP units. Based on content analysis, the following categories were built: educational practice types, educational approach, and traditional and non-traditional health. Dissociation between discourse and practice was observed, demonstrating the need of associating knowledge to practice, and to incorporate transforming educational practices to nursing routine practice.

especially astaxanthin, are distinguished by their capacity to interact with chemically reactive species of oxygen known as singlet oxygen and free radicals. Astaxanthin is actually quite common in nature, especially in the marine environment. Various animals, in addition to the flamingo, have adapted to exploit the potent antioxidant properties of carotenoids. One familiar example is seen in the cold water fish that selectively accumulate astaxanthin from their diet and deposit it in their flesh to protect lipid tissues from peroxidation, a harmful form of oxidation. These animals include salmon and trout, as well as shrimp, lobsters and crayfish, and it is the astaxanthin that provides the pinkish-red hue to the flesh of these animals. The animals obtain astaxanthin in their diet from zooplankton, insects or crustaceans that haveaccumulated astaxanthin from phytoplankton.
One of the more common sources of astaxanthin is the alga Haematococcus pluvialis, also referred to as Haematococcus lacustris or Sphaerella lacustris, which is a ubiquitous green alga of the order Volvocales, family Haematococcaceae. It is now known that the alga occurs in nature worldwide, where environmental conditions for its growth are favorable. While Haematococcus occurs in nature worldwide, it is most often found in cooler pools of fresh water such as garden birdbaths. A close relative of Haematococcus is known as xe2x80x9csnow algaexe2x80x9d and can often be seen as the blood-red layer on ice banks and snow fields in springtime.

Astaxanthin may also have a physiological benefit in energy metabolism. Dr. Curt Malmsten conducted a double-blind study at the Paramedical School of Vrmd (Gustavsberg, Sweden) in which 40 healthy students were divided into two groups for a series of physiological tests with and without astaxanthin supplementation. The students were given either a placebo capsule or one with 2 mg of astaxanthin from Haematococcus algae. At the end of six months, there was a not a significant difference in the hemoglobin values between the two groups but there was a significant difference in the strength/endurance that was measured by knee bends and a barbell weight.

Shiv Bari Temple Overview

As the name suggest, this temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva and was built in the 19th century by Maharaja Doongar Singh Ji. Also known as Laleshwar Mahadeo temple by the locals, Shiva Bari temple is made of red sandstone and has many miniature paintings that reflect unique rajasthani tradition and culture.

Surrounded by walls; you would find many pavilions, domes and columns inside the temple. During the month of February and August, a lot of devotees visit the temple in huge number owing to the Maha Shivratri and Shravan festival respectively.


of the organizations concerned, it was nonetheless a powerful force for social mobility and working-class pride.

Such activities were particularly famously promoted by two of the great mass parties influenced by Marxism, namely the pre–World War I German Social Democrats (SPD), and the post–1945 Italian Communist Party (PCI). Both excluded from governmental office, these parties unable to take state power instead built up civil society institutions of their own, islands of working-class power outside of the state.

Reformist parties able to reach power (including the SPD themselves in the 1920s, after the advent of universal suffrage and an egalitarian voting system) did also maintain such internal structures, though as these parties merged into the state they tended instead to focus on expanding school education.

In the days and weeks since his election, Mr Trump has suggested that anywhere up to five million ballots were cast illegally. He has blamed these alleged illegal voters for Hillary Clinton beating him in the popular vote.

There is no evidence to support Mr Trump’s claims, which he tweeted last November, saying: “In addition to winning the Electoral College in a landslide, I won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally.”

of voter fraud and people voting illegally during the campaign and continues to maintain that belief based on studies and evidence people have brought to him,” he said.
