On March 8th of 2014, No Dice Gaming put together two large show matches featuring four premier level professional players. The first of which (March 8th)[5] featured Liquid's TaeJa, CM Storm's Revival, Puzzle, and Dragon. This first event casted by BaseTrade, it was a successful event with great players, casting crew and production. TaeJa took the win over revival Revival 3-2 in the first set, and Dragon beat out Puzzle 3-2, resulting in a TvT final. TaeJa displayed his world class Terran vs Terran skills, and took first place convincingly withPitchers have dominated the storylines thus far this offseason, from signing record contracts as free agents to commanding significant return packages on the trade market.

Look no further than the D-backs, who played a role in each of those two scenarios. First, Arizona landed Zack Greinke in a shocking move after swooping in and offering the former Dodgers ace a six-year, $206.5 million deal. Far from done, the D-backs then turned around and acquired fellow front-line starter Shelby Miller from the Braves in exchange for Ender Inciarte, Aaron Blair and Dansby Swanson, the club's 2015 No. 1 overall pick.

Though the D-backs have made the most significant splashes when it comes to pitching, their moves only epitomize the overall state of the market this offseason. With a number of teams


out, the D-backs, despite being the stars of the offseason, still have a ways to go to crack the top five. Between Steamer expecting both Greinke and Miller to take a small step back next year and the question marks surrounding the rest of the rotation, Arizona was left on the outside looking in. Here's a look at the five clubs that ranked atop the list.

5. Dodgers

Projected rotation: Clayton Kershaw, Brett Anderson, Hyun-Jin Ryu, Alex Wood, Mike Bolsinger

Projected combined WAR: 15.7

Even after losing Greinke to the D-backs and later backing away from a potential deal with Hisashi Iwakuma, the Dodgers still crack the top five. Now, to be fair, this is almost solely a result of the three-time Cy Young Award winner at the top of the rotation.potential in the past, and Roark went 15-10 with a 2.85 ERA in 31 starts in 2014 before splitting time between the rotation and bullpen last season. As for Ross, one of the organization's top pitching prospects entering last season, the right-hander is hoping to take the next step in '16 following an up-and-down rookie campaign.

2. Mets

Projected rotation: Matt Harvey, Jacob deGrom, Steven Matz, Noah Syndergaard, Bartolo Colon

Projected combined WAR: 16.7

With arguably the deepest starting rotation in the Majors, the Mets will seemingly trot out an ace-caliber pitcher at least once every series -- even if it's only a two-game set. deGrom finished with a 2.54 ERA last season, proving his 2014 Rookie of the Year campaign was no fluke,


29-year-old righty, acquired in a 2013 trade with the Orioles, turned in the most dominant second half in Major League history en route to finishing with a 1.77 ERA and winning the NL Cy Young Award. As if that weren't enough, the Cubs further solidified the top of their rotation this offseason when they lured Lackey -- and his 2.77 ERA -- away from the rival Cardinals with a two-year, $32 million offer.

The drill was performed again on Sunday. While a pitcher takes the mound, coach Corky Miller threw to hitters from in front of the mound. When a situation is handled wrong on the fly, Price uses the opportunity to make it a talking point.

Price based the drill on one performed when he once was the pitching coach for the Mariners and then-manager Mike Hargrove. There is one big deviation from the current version, however. In the Seattle drill, the defense had to record 27 outs without a mistake.

"If there is any single thing that a defender did incorrectly, you go back to zero outs," Price said. "I remember one of them. We had a relief pitcher and a veteran and there was a runner at second base


and a base hit to left field. The left fielder comes up and makes a great throw to the plate, catcher receives the ball as he should. The play should be over, a successful play. The pitcher, instead of going through the first-base line and back up the base, he went through the third-base line. The angle of his route was incorrect. He still got behind the plate, but just from talking about doing it as we drew it up, he took the wrong route. And it went from 23 outs to zero. It was my call. I had to say, 'We're going back to zero, guys, because this guy took the wrong route behind home plate.' That was an uncomfortable one."

Worth noting

• Raisel Iglesias, who started slightlybehind schedule after a shoulder conditioning program, is getting closer to facing hitters for the first time. Price thought Iglesias could throw in batting practice by the end of the week.

• Lefty John Lamb (back) could face hitters in BP in the next 10 days. Homer Bailey (elbow) is on track to face hitters for the first time in the middle of March.

• Price expected infielder Jose Peraza to get opportunities in center field this spring, when regular Billy Hamilton is not being used.

"He would be a guy if we had an injury to Billy, he'd be a consideration as a regular outfielder," Price said.

The remains of two UN investigators and their Congolese interpreter who went missing two weeks ago have been found in Democratic Republic of Congo's Kasai-Central province, the government and the UN said.

American Michael Sharp, Swede Zaida Catalan, interpreter Betu Tshintela, driver Isaac Kabuayi, and two motorcycle drivers disappeared in the restive province on March 12.

In a statement issued in New York, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres confirmed that the remains of the two investigators had been found and said the world body would conduct an inquiry.

"Michael and Zaida lost their lives seeking to understand the causes of conflict and insecurity in the DRC in order to help bring peace to the country and its people," the UN chief said.

The UN researchers were looking into recent large-scale violence and allegedhuman rights violations by the Congolese army and local militia groups when they went missing.

Guterres said the United Nations would cooperate with Congolese authorities in searching for the four Congolese nationals who accompanied the UN officials.

"In case of criminal acts, the United Nations will do everything possible to ensure that justice is done," the UN chief said.

Government spokesman Lambert Mende said one of the bodies, that of the woman, had been beheaded.

The confirmation came a day after Sharp's father, John Sharp, wrote on his Facebook page that the bodies of two Caucasians had been found in shallow graves in the search area, saying there was a high probability the dead were his son and his son's colleague.

The disappearance is


the first time UN experts have been reported missing in Congo, Human Rights Watch said.

Parts of Congo, particularly the east, have experienced insecurity for decades, but violence in the Kasai region in central Congo represents a new expansion of tensions.

The Kamwina Nsapu militia has been fighting security forces since last year, with the violence increasing after security forces killed the militia's leader in August.

More than 400 people have been killed and more than 200,000 displaced since then, according to the UN.

Militias have been blamed for atrocities and government forces are accused of attacking civilians.

The militia reportedly killed more than 40 police officers in an ambush on Saturday and only spared those who spoke their local language. They were reportedly beheaded.

sometimes to that. He will become an incongruous being. In, fact there cannot be two opinions about the necessity of being attached to a definite school or an ideology.

It is important to note that it is religious faith alone that can convert a man into a true believer and can suppress his selfishness and self-seeking under the impact of a doctrine and an ideology. Religious faith creates in the individual a sort of unqualified submission so that he can no longer entertain any doubt even about the most trivial doctrines of his school. He holds his school dear to his heart, regards his life without it as meaningless and absurd and supports his ideology with zeal and fervour.

Religious tendencies impel man to make efforts even at the costof his natural and individualistic feelings. He sometimes sacrifices his life and his social position for the sake of his faith.

This is possible only when the ideal of a man attains an aspect of sanctity and gains absolute control of his existence. It is religious force alone which imparts sanctity to an ideal and imposes its authority on man.

It is true that often people sacrifice their life, their property and all that is dear to them not for the sake of any ideal or religious faith but under the pressure of psychological complexes, malice, revenge or as a severe reaction to the feeling of being oppressed and suppressed. Such cases are common in every part of the world.

But there is a difference between a religious and a non-religious


ideal. As the involvement of religious belief imparts sanctity to an ideal, sacrifices are made for the sake of it most voluntarily and naturally. A task performed voluntarily shows a sort of choice, but a task performed under the influence of complexes and perturbing inner pressures, means a sort of explosion. Evidently there is a vast difference between the two.

Furthermore, should the world conception of a man be purely material and based exclusively on perceptible realities, he will find every kind of social and human idealism contrary to the perceptible realities of his relations with the world as felt by him on any particular occasion.

The American psychologist and philosopher of the early 20th century, William James says: "The outcome of a perceptional conception is only selfishness, not idealism.finds any support from the former".

Religious belief not only prescribes for man a number of duties irrespective of his natural inclinations, but also completely changes his view about the world, in the structure of which he begins to discern new elements. The dry, cold, mechanical and material world is transformed into a living and conscious world. Religious belief changes man's impression about the universe and the creation. William James says: "The world which the religious thinking presents to us is not only this very material world in a changed form but also includes many features of which a materialist cannot think". (Psychoanalysis and Religion p. 508)

Besides all this, every human being has an innate tendency to believe in truth and sacred and adorable realities. Man has many hidden


the object of his faith and worship.

As man is in need of an ideal and a faith and by his instinct seeks something which he may hallow and adore, the only way open to us is to augment our religious faith, which is the only faith which can really bring man under its sway.

The Holy Qur'an is the first Book which has described religious faith as a sort of concord between man and the entire creation:

"Do they seek anything other than the religion of Allah? But to Him submits whosoever is in the heavens and the earth." (Surah Al-e-Imran, 3:83)

The Holy Qur'an has also described religious faith as a part of the innate nature of man:

"Be devoted to the upright religion. That is the nature in which Allahreligious faith from all these three angles:

Optimism is the first effect of religious faith from the viewpoint of the creation of happiness and delight. A faithful man is optimistic about the world, the life and the creation. Religious belief gives a particular shape to man's attitude towards the world. As religion maintains that creation has a goal and that its goal is nothing but betterment and evolution, naturally religious belief affects the outlook of man and makes him optimistic about the system of the universe and the laws governing it.

The attitude of a faithful man to the universe is similar to the attitude of a man living in a country about which he is sure that its systems, laws and formations are just and fair, that those who


pressure of spiritual factors.

From the viewpoint of the creation of happiness and delight the second effect of religious faith is the illumination of heart. As man sees the world illuminated by the light of truth, his heart and soul are also illuminated. Faith is a lamp, which illuminates his inmost. In contrast, a disbeliever finds the world dark, dingy and meaningless, and as a result his own heart remains dark in his supposedly dark world.

The third effect of religious faith from the angle of happiness and delight is the expectation that good efforts produce good results.

From purely material point of view, the world is indifferent as to who goes along the right and just path and who goes along the wrong and unjust path. The result of amake man happy and satisfied:

(i) Effort

(ii) Satisfaction in regard to the conditions prevailing in his environment.

The success of a student depends on two things: firstly, his own effort; and secondly, the suitability of the atmosphere of the school and the encouragement he receives from the school authorities. If a hard-working student has no confidence in the atmosphere of his school and in his examiners, he will all the year round be apprehensive of an unfair treatment and will be seized by a sense of anxiety.

Man knows his duty to himself. This aspect does not cause him any worry because what disturbs a man is a sense of doubt and uncertainty. Man is sure about all that concerns himself. What disturbs him and is not clear to him is


can by himself meet all his needs. It is essential that life should be led on somewhat cooperative basis. Gains and obligations should be shared and a sort of division of labour should be established. Anyhow, there is one difference between man and other gregarious animals like bees etc. Other animals follow the principle of the division of labours by instinct. They have no power not to abide by this law. In contrast, man is a free agent. He has a Power of choice and performs his work of his own accord and regards it as his duty. In other words, social instinct has been forced on other gregarious animals. But though man's needs are social, no such instinct has been imposed on him.

The 1980s were (like totally) a decade of immense change for both the United States and the World as a whole. Thanks to a new period of economic growth and the end of the Cold War, America underwent a radical societal shift. The trends of the ’70s were replaced with big hair, shoulder pads, and mind-blowing music videos on MTV. The invention of the internet opened technological doors for students, while a new awareness of global warming brought about concern for the environment. Human rights and societal epidemics came to the forefront of consciousness as a response to the Berlin Wall, famine in Ethiopia, and the ripple effects of the Cold War.

Like their forefathers, artists of the 1980s recognized art as


a platform for their own personal political statements and created art as a response to the cultural atmosphere of the ’80s. A wide-range of artist practices emerged in the 1980s allowing artists to express themselves in new and exciting ways. One example, popularized by artists like Sam Francis, Nancy Haynes, and Helen Frankenthaler, was the monotype. Monotype steered away from the perfection of Pop and Minimalism allowing artists, through imperfections and originality, to visibly leave their emotions on the canvas.

Known for his inventive biomorphic sculptures, New York artist John Newman is also a consummate draftsman and printmaker. This mixed-media drawing is characteristic of Newman’s process-driven approach—essentially a visual record of his accumulative decisions and concerns.

PHOTOJOURNALIST WINS PHOTOGRAPHER OF THE YEAR AWARD FOR
AFGHANISTAN PICTURE 'THE VALLEY'

By Antoine du Rocher

PARIS, 28 JUNE 2008 - Hungarian photographer
Balazs Gardi has been named Photographer of the Year in the Px3
Prix de la Photographie, Paris 2008 and Human
Condition Competition. Mr. Gardi took first place in the
categories of Professional Photojournalism and General News for
his image The Valley in which an Afghan man holds a
wounded young boy in front of a house on 20 October
2007 in
Yaka China village, Kunar province, East Afghanistan. According
to the caption, the boy received several shrapnel wounds from a
rocket as a U.S. airstrike targeted a suspected insurgent
position in a nearby house the previous night. The air strike
also killed five other civilians and injured at least seven
villagers including children. This year's prize is worth 3.000
Euros.

On view until28 June at the Acte 2 Galerie in Paris, the
winning work of varying quality by both professional (those who
earn, or have earned, the majority of their income from taking
photographs) and non-professional photographers is divided into
seven categories: Advertising, Photojournalism, Book, Book
Proposals, Fine Art, Nature and Portraiture. These are further
divided into such subcategories as General News, Wars, Feature
Story, Fashion, People, Architecture, Beauty, Sports, Annual
Reports, Food, Music, Nudes, Abstraction, Landscapes, and
Other.

Manifestly, there was no shortage of quality material from the
major war zones. In addition to Balazs Gardi's The
Valley, Bertrand Meunier's Where the Jihad Lives
Now series for Newsweek took second place in
General News. A provocative and at times seemingly manipulative
set of images shot in Pakistan, Meunier's photos could trigger
fear, if not outright Islamophobia, in the uninformed viewer.

Equally impressive is Brent Stirton's reportage


by Getty Images
for Newsweek. Awarded third prize in Professional
Photojournalism and entitled Slaughter in the Jungle,
Mr. Stirton's shocking and heart-wrentching pictures document
the mysterious murders of mountain gorillas in Virunga National
Park in Eastern Congo in July 2007. According to the
caption, a silverback alpha male, the leader of a group, and
three females were shot and killed. Two of the females had
babies and the other was pregnant. The two babies were not
found and it is presumed they subsequently died of stress and
dehydration. The motivation for the killing is not known, but
it is suspected that there were political motivations. The
local illegal charcoal industry clashes with conservation
efforts in this very poor area and Rangers have been
threatened, tortured and killed as a result of this clash of
political and economic wills. Over 100 Rangers have losttheir
lives in the efforts to protect the gorillas of Virunga, one of
the world's
most endangered species .

Presumably because of the robust market for such material, many
photographers seek out the horrors and cruelty of human
conflict and devastation (wars and war-related rape, genocide, floods, famine).
Gillian Laub won first prize in the Book category for portraits
of Israeli Jews, Israeli Arabs, displaced Lebanese families and
Palestinians. Among her most powerful images are those of
teenage boys without limbs and the matter-of-fact portrait of a
young woman enveloped in scar tissue and a burn-recovery suit,
with a framed reproduction of Jean-Hippolyte Flandrin's
Jeune homme nu assis au bord de la mer (Nude Youth
Sitting by the Sea) in the background.

Images exploring crime, ignorance, poverty, teen idols as sex
objects and racism in the United States have long been
monnaie courante, albeit exploitative


terrain, as more
photographers made the transition from the documentary-style
photojournalism of the 1950s to the more personal and
investigative photographic explorations of the 1970s and 1980s.
Still, some capture the existential devastation better than
others. Italy's Nicola Majocchi won first prize in Professional
Political Photography for his series Wrongly Convicted
about an American who was accused of a crime he didn't commit,
was tortured for 12 hours until he signed a forged confession,
sentenced to death, spent 19 years in jail and then released.

One of the goals of the Paris competition is to introduce
photographers from around the world to the artistic community
of Paris - hardly a new idea, but a necessary mission in view
of the overwhelming predominance of western European and
American photographers in both commercial and fine art
photography. One hopes that such projects will improve
aesthetic literacyworldwide so that the average person may
appreciate and contemplate beauty in all its diversity, rather
than the sole aesthetic standards, traditions, prejudices and
deconstructions of western-European-descended white culture
(European painting, Hollywood, Madison Avenue, television,
digital culture).

That said, Indian photographer Jatin Kampani
from Mumbai won second place for Beauty. The
entre-deux-guerres sensibility that merges with the
staggerng millenia-old expression of beauty from the
subcontinent is a welcome change and long overdue in western
mass media.

Equally striking was Reimar Juul's Hijra: Neither man nor
woman, a series that documents the hijras of India. Hijras
are born as men, but dress as women. They have been recognized
as a third gender in the subcontinent from the earliest times.

Although some may consider photography a second rate means of
creative expression, it has, nonetheless, become one of the
most competitve within the art world, as art photography


enters
important national and international collections and regularly
achieves top
prices at auctions . The relatively young German
photographers Andreas Gursky and
Thomas Struth are
notable examples. Advertising, which is highly lucrative but
equally as competitive, demands virtuosity as the prix
d'entrée .

In the non-professional Advertising category, the jury awarded
Los Angeles-based Ryan Schude First Category Winner, as well as
the more prestigious PX3 Best New Talent Award for his single
entry entitled, The Saturn.

Surprisingly though, categories such as performing arts, nudes,
family, music, abstraction among others were less felicitous or
simply derivative in their achievements. Despite the first
place of Howard Schatz for his Portraits of Actors in
black and white, or Elliott Erwitt's (Magnum)
second place for his series Adult Video Awards for
Newsweek , the category of Personality / People also
proved a challenge. Entertaining and fun, but no match for the
glamour andMONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA – Cops in Florida apparently found that C is for cocaine, too.

The Panama-registered — now abandoned — ship Modern Express is headed for the French coast, France's Marine Nationale reported. Authorities have been attempting to right the vessel before it runs aground but have not been successful because of bad weather conditions.

On Monday afternoon the BBC reported that maritime experts had managed to attach a tow line to the ship.

The four experts will now be evacuated from the Modern Express before crews attempt to direct the ship away from the French coast.

A Spanish tug boat is position and ready for the towing attempt. "The priority is to move the boat away from the coast" to stop it running aground, the spokesman told the BBC.

Here is a map of its progress, from the shipping news site gCaptain.com:

Cido Shipping, the owner of the vessel, contracted the French emergency tug Abeille Bourbon, the French Navy frigate Primauguet with a Lynx helicopter, and the AHTS Argonaute to help restore the vessel to its upright position.

Modern Express was transporting 3,600 tonnes of wood along with construction machinery from Gabon to France. The carrier holds 300 tonnes of diesel, but according to a report by the Maritime Prefect, the fuel is secure and there have been no signs of a leak.

Report details the history ofHernandez prosecutor cites OJ Simpson case in judge request

FALL RIVER, Mass. (AP) — Citing the O.J. Simpson case, a prosecutor in the murder trial of former NFL star Aaron Hernandez told a judge Thursday that trophies and religious items had been added to Hernandez's home since the 2013 killing, and he requested they be removed before the jury tours the house.

The defense agreed to remove the photos, game balls and other items or to cover them before jurors see the home during a visit scheduled for Friday.

Hernandez is accused of killing Odin Lloyd in June 2013. Lloyd, a semipro football player, was dating the sister of Hernandez's fiancee, Shayanna Jenkins. At the time, Hernandez had a $40 million contract with the New England Patriots.

It's the second time in


a month that the court has taken up the question of whether jurors will be allowed to see trophies and other personal items in Hernandez's home, where Jenkins still lives. Last month, Bristol County Superior Court Judge Susan Garsh ruled that jurors would be allowed to see Hernandez's trophy case after his lawyer, James Sultan, argued that the house should be shown to jurors exactly the way it was at the time of Lloyd's death.

"The trial is about the truth. This is the truth of his house," Sultan said then.

But on Thursday, prosecutor Patrick Bomberg said he took a tour through the house a day earlier and discovered religious items had been added, as was memorabilia from his NFL, college and high school careers. He said it wasdisplayed in several rooms in the house, and furniture was added to hold it.

"It's not nearly the same as it appeared back in 2013," Bomberg said.

He compared it to how Simpson's home was changed and manipulated before the jurors in his murder trial visited it. In that case, photographs and pictures were placed in the home to portray Simpson as a family man, and a Bible was placed on a table to play to jurors' religious sympathies.

Garsh said anything new would have to be covered or removed, and the defense agreed to do so.

Also Thursday, Sultan challenged police over how they handled evidence and the crime scene. North Attleborough police Capt. Joseph DiRenzo testified that a heavy rainstorm came in not long after Lloyd's body was discovered, so

His faith appeared shaken (for the moment), but not stirred (Krugman points outHyman Minsky, a largely forgotten "I told you so" economist. Minsky had predicted that boom and bust cycles were inevitable in Capitalist society formulating his "financial Instability hypothesis" way back in the 1960's. Economic stability, according to the theory, has within it the potential for creating havoc; when people feel comfortable and optimistic about the future they're prone to take risks in a quest for increased returns on investment -- think debt -- and this mass euphoria can have catastrophic financial consequences. Playing Paul Revere at a time when America was doing quite well got Minsky exiled to academic Coventry by the mainstream economics establishment. It was only in 2008, twelve years after his death, that interest in his theories was rekindled and economists began a mad scramble


through remainder and clearance bins in search of his out-of-print tome, Stabilizing an Unstable Society.

So what's to be done?

Boom Bust Boom finds a group of economics students at the University of Manchester who've formed a "Post-Crash Economics Society" to encourage a re-writing of the economics curriculum to make sure that Minsky isn't forgotten. Given the intransigence of the economics establishment they see this as a tough road to hoe.

In 2002 my company, Pacific Street Films, created educational programming aimed at teaching economic fundamentals to High School and University students. There was no talk of Minsky, crashes, bubbles or booms. It appears that we were trying to teach economics in a vacuum, divorced from real-world concerns. One of the students in the Manchester group made a statement that wasPark on its northern side.  Features such as Wilpena Pound and St Mary Peak are within the boundary of the county.

Ostentatious portraits of arrogant, overdressed monarchs dominate the opening room of "The Great War in Portraits," a fascinating exhibition now at the National Portrait Gallery. Kaiser Wilhelm II is here, in August Böcher's traditional painting, pompously showing off an elaborate ceremonial uniform. Frowning at us, and hiding his withered left arm in a draped tunic, this deluded kaiser personifies the imperial...

After launching a workout bike in 2014, Peloton introduced a treadmill in 2018. It completed an initial public offering earlier this year. Peloton Chief Executive Officer John Foley told Bloomberg in September that the company is investing in new markets and fitness categories.Today was a tale of two occasions. On the one hand there was Julian's swansong, and on the other a fairly serious pre-season workout. So it's perhaps only fair to report on the afternoons events as two seperate occasions.

On the game: Taking Julian's appearance out of the equation, the game was a serious test for both sides approaching the forthcoming season. Not a lot was known about the visitors - they're hardly one of the glamour clubs of Spanish football after all - despite fielding one or two Spanish internationals.

One of the first things you notice is that the Bilbao side consists only of Spanish players. Even further, they only consist of Spanish players from the Basque region. I can't think of any other team this side of


Celtic's European Cup winning squad of 1967 who have adhered to this kind of home grown policy with any kind of success. But success Bilbao have certainly enjoyed - regulars in the top six of the Primera Liga of late, only narrowly missing out on the championship three seasons ago.

The Hammers went into the game missing Lampard and Ferdinand, with Joey Cole also a somewhat surprising omission. Let's hope there's nothing sinister behind that.

It was the first chance for many fans to see the new signings in action. Nigel Winterburn and Davor Suker were introduced to the crowd before kick off (we'd already met Freddy before). Despite the reservations of many Winterburn turned out to be one of our better performers on the day, offering a Julianesque performancecurled round the wall and looked to be heading for the top corner, but Bilbao's keeper Aranzubia has obviously forgotten to read the script and saved well to the disappointment of all.

Paul Kitson, the forgotten man of Upton Park levelled the scores shortly after his introduction in place of Davor Suker. A Sinclair free kick found Kitson at the back door and he nodded home off the far post.

But with seconds remaining Bilbao scored the decisive goal. Yet another corner produced havoc in the Hammers box and Yeste stole in to nod home the winner.

It wasn't all gloom and doom; there were still some notable individual performances. Nigel Winterburn immediately endeared himself to the crowd with a Dicks like performance - he threw himself into every challenge and

Prior to March 1, 1913, Marr and wife purchased 339 shares of the preferred and 425 shares of the common stock of the General Motors Company of New Jersey for $76,400. In 1916, they received in exchange for this stock 451 shares of

The Delaware corporation made to stockholders in the New *539 Jersey corporation the following offer for exchange of securities: For every share of common stock of the New Jersey corporation, five shares of common stock of the Delaware corporation. For every share of the preferred stock of the New Jersey corporation, one and one-third shares of preferred stock of the Delaware corporation. In lieu of a certificate for fractional shares of stock in the Delaware corporation payment was to be made in cash at the rate of $100 a share for its preferred and at the rate of $150 a share for its common stock. On this basis all the common stock of the New Jersey corporation was exchanged and all the preferred stock except afew shares. These few were redeemed in cash. For acquiring the stock of the New Jersey corporation only $75,000,000 of the common stock of the Delaware corporation was needed. The remaining $7,600,000 of the authorized common stock was either sold or held for sale as additional capital should be desired. The Delaware corporation, having thus become the owner of all the outstanding stock of the New Jersey corporation, took a transfer of its assets and assumed its liabilities. The latter was then dissolved.
It is clear that all new securities issued in excess of an amount equal to the capitalization of the New Jersey corporation represented income earned by it; that the new securities received by the Marrs in excess of the cost of the securities of the New


the same powers as the old. There was also no change in the character of securities issued. By reason of these facts, the proportional interest of the stockholder after the distribution of the new securities was deemed to be exactly the same as if the par value of the stock in the old corporation had been reduced, and five shares of reduced par value stock had been issued in place of every two shares of the old stock. Thus, in Weiss v. Stearn, as in Eisner v. Macomber, the transaction was considered, in essence, an exchange of certificates representing the same interest, not an exchange of interests.

Man Commits Suicide Live on Skype While Spectators Watch

A shocking Skype suicide where a young man hanged himself
while online spectators urged him on is being investigated by police in Russia.Sergey Kirilov, 26, from Moscow, had announced
his own death on a social networking site and asked anyone who wanted to see it
to link to him on Skype.

Astonished police say instead of trying to stop him, many
urged him on, saying a 'real man' would have killed himself more quickly.One
even told him: 'Come on, are you ready yet? Go on - do it.'

And another urged: 'If a man says he's going to do
something, he needs to do it.'

Moscow police are now trying to trace all the people who
watched Mr Kirilov's suicide through their internet service providers.

A 23-year-old man sustained a broken jaw after a one-punch attack in Galway city on Saturday night.

Ronan Greaney was on his way to the shop across from his house when the incident occured.

His brother Eugene told Independent.ie that Ronan had been at the beer tent at the Galway Christmas market with his father after working six days that week.

He had returned around quarter past one in the morning before heading to the shop, where he met two men and two women between seventeen and twenty years old.

They spoke for a matter of minutes and Eugene said that Ronan "did not sense any danger" and does not remember what the conversation was about. He told Ronan that he remembers one of the girls asking for a cigarette, and thenbeing punched from the side.

"One punch broke his jaw".

Eugene reported that at first, he "didn't pay too much attention" to the noise outside and was just "going to tell them to keep it down".

"I (looked out) and saw two girls shouting to two lads to 'come on', to run.".

"Ronan came into my room and collapsed. It was clear straight away that his jaw was broken and his teeth were damaged. I brought him straight to the hospital".

Ronan is due to undergo surgery on his jaw today which will require two metal plates to be placed under the skin. He will have these for the rest of his life. His jaw will also have to be wired shut for six weeks.

The Gathering of the Juggalos is nearly impossible to describe. Part concert, part carnival, part borderline riot, Psychopathic Records’ annual festival is an experience like no other. Set on a campground in the woods of rural Illinois, the festival – now in it’s 13th year – featured over 100 bands, sideshows, wrestling matches, contests, free carnival rides and seminars.

The heart of the Gathering — Insane Clown Posse fans known as Juggalos and Juggalettes — turned out by the thousands to set up camp in the area surrounding the activities. Between the open-air drug use, plentiful nudity and the random detonation of fireworks and explosives, many might shy away from the people who make up this subculture. But you would be missing something. For all the stereotypes and fearhis job. Smith has a goal. When he's finished with football, he'd like to be able to go to the grocery store without anyone recognizing him.

"He's just a simple guy," said Blair Thompson, a childhood friend. "He grew up that way."

Before Smith and his wife, Kerri, had kids, they used to go back to the course a lot during the offseason. He bought his wife a chainsaw. She'd cut the trees; he'd mow the greens.

There is nothing exclusive or pretentious about Railwood. It exists for everybody in the tiny town of Holts Summit, Mo., and nearby Jefferson City. In the clubhouse, they serve Budweiser and a handful of one-syllable American beers. (Smith, by the way, has an Anheuser-Busch tattoo on his left bicep.) "He gives me trouble because


I like wine," said his father, Dave. "He's like, 'Geez, Dad.'"

It is clear that the golf course means a lot to Justin Smith. It was built on his granddad's old farmland. His dad grew up there. When the course was in financial trouble 10 years ago, it was Smith who came in and bought it from some local investors. On the 17th green, the highest point, you can see the Missouri River and Jefferson City, a town of 43,000 where all of this started for a rancher's kid who didn't grow up with cable TV. He didn't have time for it.

Someday, Smith tells his friends, his little boys will know about this land, and this community. Smith might not have known this when he bought it, but Railwoodis more than just a golf course. It's a place where people connect. The high school teams hold banquets and fundraisers in the clubhouse. The locals drink coffee and eat breakfast there and talk about sports.

This week, the phone keeps ringing at Railwood. Folks wonder if there will be a Super Bowl party on Sunday.

"It's pretty exciting," said Kelly Whitaker, a longtime Railwood employee who, like others in the area, is friends with the Smith family. "Not too many times do you know somebody who's gotten to the Super Bowl.

"Justin has been a workaholic since at least the seventh grade. He deserves it because he's worked for it."

"Justin's an intense football player," says 49ers defensive coordinator Vic Fangio. "He's a throwback, but he's a great player, too." Michael

A man doesn't play football for most of his life without acquiring some kind of nickname, and there's one that has stuck with Smith since he entered the NFL in 2001: Cowboy. The boots, jeans and flannel shirts with the sleeves cut out were part of the reason he earned this moniker -- "He's not a fashionista," said former Bengals defensive coordinator Chuck Bresnahan -- but there is a deeper meaning to the name.

Smith, whose Southern accent comes through in about every other sentence, was trying to lug around feed buckets by the time he was 4 years old. His work ethic is his persona. Watch him in the weight room, or fighting off 600 pounds of double-teams, and you can't help but picture him baling hay.

He plays more than 90 percent of the snaps, which is stunning considering he's a big man and he's 33. Smith prefers it this way because he believes he can wear down his opponents. The significance of his presence on the field was underscored after Dec. 16, when he felt a pop in his triceps during a Sunday night game at New England. It was the first major injury of his career. Smith didn't play the next two games, but returned for the playoffs wearing a brace. Before the injury, young 49ers linebacker Aldon Smith had 19½ sacks and was on pace to shatter the NFL's single-season record. In the four games since the injury, Aldon


Smith has had zero sacks.

There is an iconic photo from the 2011 season that encapsulates Justin Smith. The 49ers are facing the New Orleans Saints in the playoffs. It's the fourth quarter, third-and-17. Smith is bull-rushing Jermon Bushrod -- a Pro Bowl left tackle -- and he pushes Bushrod into Drew Brees. Smith has his arm wrapped around Bushrod, but his eyes are fixed on Brees, and he has one mitt on the quarterback. Blood is trickling down Smith's elbow. Brees is just about to throw an incomplete pass, and all three of them are about to tumble to the ground.

Smith played all 80 defensive snaps in that game, plus a few on offense in a 36-32 San Francisco victory.

"It was kind of the epitome of that gameand our season," 49ers defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said. "Justin's an intense football player. He's a throwback, but he's a great player, too. I think a lot of people lose sight of the fact that he's very talented. But when you put in the intangibles that an overachiever may have with that talent, that's the player you get."

Dave Smith wasn't there in New Orleans on Tuesday, but he assumes that Super Bowl media day was responsible for one of the most excruciating hours of his son's life. There are those who soak up the annual circus, dancing and wearing beads and chatting it up with rodeo


clowns, and then there's Justin.

He sat on the stage, bored as a teenager watching C-SPAN. He was asked about CTE and football safety at least three times. He was asked to hold up a giant hashtag, and Smith promptly told the guy, "I don't have Twitter."

At one point in his one-hour session, someone asked Smith how it felt to go from a goat herder to the Super Bowl, and his face immediately lit up. It was Artrell Hawkins, a former teammate in Cincinnati who now works for Fox Sports Radio.

"It's pretty amazing seeing you sitting up there," Hawkins said to Smith from the crowd. "I was with you when you were a rookie, now you're a potential hero."

Smith laughed.

"Who would've thought it?" Smith said.

Teammates love him because theycan count on him. In 12 years in the NFL, Smith has missed a total of three games -- those two in December, and one on Sept. 9, 2001. He wasn't hurt that day in what should've been his rookie debut. Smith, a first-round draft pick from the University of Missouri, had spent the entire summer in a contract holdout. When he finally arrived in September, his new teammates, naturally, were skeptical. They'd grown tired of the Justin Smith Watch.

"We expected a guy to come in that was going to be really naive," Hawkins said, "who didn't know how to work and was kind of a prima donna. We got a completely different deal and a different player."

The rookie was an Adonis -- blond-haired, blue-eyed, ripped to shreds.


As big as he was, Smith could seemingly run all day, Hawkins said. Despite missing that first game and all of training camp, he wasn't all that far behind. He still wound up breaking a Bengals rookie record with 8½ sacks.

But Smith was sort of miscast in Cincinnati from the start. He was drafted to put up double-digit sack figures every year, and when he didn't, his critics called him a bust. Bresnahan, the Bengals' defensive coordinator from 2005 to 2007, said Smith was far from that. He was just out of place. The Bengals had him playing tackle in a 4-3 system, and they'd wanted to switch to a 3-4 but couldn't because of injuries. Smith never complained.

"Justin was the blue-collar heart and soul of the defense,"Bresnahan said. "He's a guy the young guys wanted to emulate."

Smith went to the playoffs once in his seven years in Cincinnati. In 2007, the Bengals put the franchise tag on him. He managed only two sacks that season -- well off his average of more than six a year -- and was allowed to hit the free-agency market.

In the winter of 2008, he had trips planned to Minnesota, Jacksonville and San Francisco. He went to California first. After a helicopter ride over San Francisco and meetings with the coaches, he canceled his other visits and signed a six-year, $45 million contract.

"When he made that move out there, you could tell it kind of rejuvenated him a little bit," said Thompson, who played football and basketball with Smith


at Jefferson City High. "Sometimes, just a change of environment can do a person a lot of good. It was a different place, a different setting and a different group of guys. It seemed like he was excited all over again."

Success did not come quickly for Smith. In his first three seasons in San Francisco, two coaches were fired. For a while, he wondered if that 2005 playoff appearance with the Bengals would be his last.

But the 49ers' fortunes were slowly turning. Jim Harbaugh was hired in 2011, and San Francisco kept adding giant pieces to its front seven. The addition ofgetting a year under playing against him has made everything else slow down."

When Justin Smith got hurt, he mentored his backup, Ricky Jean Francois. Smith had never really been in that spot, and in the days after the New England game was conflicted about what to do. He needed surgery, and had no clue if he'd make it back for the postseason. He couldn't stand the thought of missing a possible run to the Super Bowl.

Smith doesn't tell anyone -- not even his family -- if he's in pain. During games, he says, there are painkillers to control that. But when those wear off and Smith goes home, Dave Smith knows his son is hurting. The only time his boy was upset as a kid was when he


was cooped up inside. He'd always try to lift things that were too heavy and do things that seemed too hard. They never considered it exceptional because they had nothing to compare it to.

Dave and Ginger Smith were at a banquet when Justin was a junior at Jefferson City. They went up to talk to Larry Smith, who at the time was the head coach at Missouri. They figured Smith wouldn't know who Justin was, and then the coach told them that he was the best football player he'd seen since Junior Seau.

The Smiths wondered if the coach was "blowing a little smoke" and said that to all the parents. They went over and talked to a couple of other parents. The coach hadn't said anything like thatabout their kids.

"When they offered him a scholarship," Dave said, "we about fell over."

But that's the thing about Smith. He doesn't act like he's big time, so maybe it's hard to see it sometimes.

Smith's idea of a good time is grilling some pork steaks, sitting on his deck with friends and listening to Waylon Jennings on his Jambox. He has made millions, but has only one TV in his house. He didn't have cable as a kid, and didn't care. He was too busy feeding the cows and doing push-ups.

But in Jefferson City, and at Railwood, they'll make a big deal over Justin Smith on Sunday. They'll drink beer and hold parties. They'll watch an ordinary guy do something extraordinary.


court quoted our statement concerning the only facts before the trial court and merely affirmed what we said. The primarily emphasized facts were that the passenger purchasing a ticket on a "meal flight" was assured thereby of a meal of a certain value. In the event the meal was not served in flight, the passenger was entitled to a meal of equal value at the next airport or a cash refund. Upon these primary stipulated facts, we affirmed the conclusion of the trial court that the sale from Hertz to United Airlines was a wholesale sale and not subject to sales tax. That was the only issue that was decided in Hertz. The other issues presented by the appeal were pretermitted, either by this court or by thenot improperly conclude that the alleged sale was closed and title passes at the time of delivery without the State and was not subject to Alabama sales tax.

Bruce Rauner, the state’s venture-capitalist-turned-governor, is a union-busting, Scott Walker wannabe whose approval ratings have been wrecked by his obsession with spending cuts and his failure to pass a budget for more than two years. Rauner is perhaps the most vulnerable Republican governor running for reelection in 2018—in one of the biggest and bluest states.

process. But because genetic material decays rapidly in warm, moist climates, scientists had sequenced the DNA of just one ancient African. Until now.

This week, at the annual meeting of the Society for Molecular Biology & Evolution here, scientists announced that they had partially sequenced 15 ancient African genomes, with representatives from all over sub-Saharan Africa. And another group—whose work is still unpublished—has sequenced seven more ancient humans from South Africa. “[Finding] ancient genomes from Africa is pretty amazing,” says Anna-Sapfo Malaspinas, a population geneticist at the University of Bern, who was not involved in either project.

Africa has long been called the “cradle of humanity,” from which our earliest human ancestors spread across the rest of the world some 50,000 years ago. Africa is also where people—ancient and modern—arefar and wide, reaching Southern Africa centuries before the first farmers. But modern Malawians, who live just south of Tanzania, are likely descended from West African farmers rather than local hunter-gatherers, Skoglund says. Indeed, the analysis suggests that West Africans were early contributors to the DNA of sub-Saharan Africans. But even these DNA donors were a hodgepodge of what are now two modern groups—the Mende and the Yoruba. And one ancient African herder showed influence from even farther abroad, with 38% of their DNA coming from outside Africa.

Another study focused on Southern Africa, where some researchers think modern Homo sapiens evolved. Evolutionary geneticist Carina Schlebusch and her colleagues at Uppsala University in Sweden partially sequenced seven ancient genomes: three from 2000-year-old hunter-gatherers and four from 300- to 500-year-old

the three men accompany her and Brigitte Chambers to a party that night, and they accepted. Johnson and Darden then picked up Harris at the park and returned to the nearby air force base in order to prepare for the party. Harris drove the group to the party at about 11 p.m.
At the party the men found nothing alcoholic to drink, so they went to a store and bought some rum and wine. Some time after returning, Johnson got into an argument with one of the other guests, was hostile and rude to him, and called him a "fat faggot." The argument ended, but was later repeated. Johnson then got into an argument with the owner of the apartment, and used insulting language toward her. Darden and Harristried unsuccessfully to get Johnson to leave. Terrence Archie, a male friend of the apartment owner, told Johnson that since he showed disrespect for his woman he would have to leave. Johnson then agreed to leave and exited.
Jordan and Chambers had already left the apartment and as they were walking to the car heard Johnson call to them to wait. They turned and saw that Archie had stopped and was talking to Johnson and that Johnson was apologizing for his behavior. A number of guests from the party had come out behind Archie, some holding baseball bats and sticks. Johnson told them he was leaving and they could return to their party.
Defendant, who was also at the party, then approached Johnson and said something to him, to which


Johnson replied that defendant should stay out of it, that he was an "instigating motherfucker." Defendant struck Johnson in the face, sending his glasses flying and knocking him down. Several people came between the two to separate them. Defendant drew a knife. Johnson avoided the intervenors and approached defendant, who stabbed him in the stomach. Johnson again approached defendant, and defendant stabbed him several times. Johnson stood for a *155 moment, then spit up blood and collapsed. Darden, Harris, Jordan, and Chambers all testified that Johnson did not have a knife during the fight.
The pathologist who performed the autopsy testified that Johnson's body had three stab wounds in the chest and three in the abdomen. There were numerous stab wounds on the left elbow, forearm and wrist, aswell as on both sides of the left hand. The pathologist was of the opinion that any one of the three wounds could have caused death, one having pierced the heart, another the stomach, and yet another the liver. Johnson's blood alcohol level was .27 percent.
Defendant admitted stabbing Johnson. He testified as follows. He arrived at the party about 10:30 or 11 p.m. and later noticed Johnson arguing with another guest. When Johnson left, followed by guests with bats and sticks, he believed that the matter was settled. Someone then told him that his brother was outside arguing with the Johnson group, so he went outside. There he saw Archie talking to Johnson and felt he could settle things down, so he approached and asked Johnson to leave.


Johnson told him to "shut up" and appeared about to strike him, so defendant struck him first. Other people then grabbed and held him. He saw Johnson taking something out of his pocket, which turned out to be a knife. In order to protect himself he kicked at Johnson and was stabbed in the leg. He then reached down and pulled his own knife out from his boot. Johnson charged, defendant deflected him by grasping his wrist, then stabbed him in the stomach and pushed him away. Johnson charged again, and defendant again grasped his wrist and stabbed him three or four times. Johnson grabbed defendant's throat with both hands and began to choke him, and defendant stabbed his arm and hand in order to break the grip.Defendant managed to free himself, and Johnson collapsed. Defendant went back through the apartment and outside to the patio. Although he felt that he should stay, he decided against it and climbed the fence and returned home. On the way home he hid the knife. He entered his apartment, where he changed clothing and left again. He called a friend who took him to the hospital where he had his wound treated. Sometime later he had a friend contact the county public defender who arranged for him to surrender himself.

Latin Music Presentation Through Electronic Media

As a violinist with a Latin American orchestra, I have noticed a trend in how people hear about our orchestra and who is interested in attending our concerts. Classical music is extremely prevelant in this area and gets more recognition than other forms of music, including Latin American music. These small percentages that you see on the chart are a good indication of just how tiny Latin American music is sought out.

Soon-to-be birthday girl Liv Worsnop is among 14,000 Kiwis celebrating their birthdays on September 30 - the most popular birth date in the country

Liv Worsnop shares her birthday with 14,000 other Kiwis.

The Hawke's Bay raised and now Christchurch-based artist turns 25 on September 30 - the most common birth date in the country, according to Statistics New Zealand.

Birth records show the peak birthday period starts on September 19 and runs through till October 1.

iStock More candles than usual are extinguished on September 30 each year - the most popular birth date in New Zealand

INTERACTIVE: How many Kiwis do you share your birthday with?

Over the 13-day period, the 10 most popular birthdays will occur, with about 180,000 New Zealanders expected to celebrate, senior demographer Kim Dunstan said.

The most commonbirthday in New Zealand is September 30, with 14,000 Kiwis blowing out the candles that day.

The least common birthdays tend to be centred around public holidays, with the periods between December 24-27, January 1 and 2, and Anzac Day on April 25 lowest on the list.

The least common day in a normal calendar year is December 25, although February 29 unsurprisingly snatches the title for the most unlikely day of birth.

"Although the peak birthday period in New Zealand is similar to that in the United States, the pattern is less extreme across the Tasman and in the UK," Dunstan said.

Worsnop's biggest issue with being born amid the most popular birthday period for New Zealanders, was that her milestone invariably fell during the school holidays when she was growing


up.

The term structure during her schooling meant her birthday fell when many of her classmates were away.

"I never got to have a birthday at school, which was awful. When you had a birthday during the term there were parties."

She did get a sense of what it was like to be conceived early in a new year, however, because one of her teachers would always hold a combined birthday for the pupils who would be holidaying on their big day.

A welcome gesture, though the combined arrangement meant it wasn't held on their actual birthday.

"If your birthday was in the holidays you had to share your party. That wasn't very cool, i didn't enjoy that."

Worsnop, did have a separate birthday to her father Jeff though, who was born on September29.

"We never had a combined party though it is quite special our birthdays are close," she said.

Her younger sister Sophie was born on October 6, just outside the peak period, and is due to celebrate her 21st.

Although part of a birthday logjam, Worsnop liked the idea of being conceived at the start of the 1990s and said a September birthday was preferable to being born on Christmas Day, at New Year or February 29 during a leap year.

The Statistics NZ 'rank your birthday' tool, which you can use in this story, shows how common a birth date is, and how many people share the day.

Tom Hanks’ “News of the World” will hit theaters on Dec. 25, 2020, Universal Pictures announced Wednesday.

“News of the World” is written and directed by Paul Greengrass, who is reunited with Hanks for the first time since their 2013 Best Picture nominee “Captain Phillips.”

The film follows Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd (Hanks), who five years after the end of the Civil War moves from town-to-town as a non-fiction storyteller, telling the news of presidents, queens, feuds and catastrophes. However, in Texas, he meets 10-year-old Johanna who was taken by the Kiowa tribe years ago and is now being returned to her aunt. Kidd agrees to deliver the child, and on their journey, they face human and natural challenges.

Fifty-one-year-old Robert Meilhammer of Dorchester County was hunting with three other people shortly before 5 p.m. Thursday when one of them fired at a flock of Canada geese overhead in Easton, near the Miles River on Maryland's Eastern Shore.

Maryland Natural Resources Police spokeswoman Candy Thomson said a falling goose hit Meilhammer, knocking him out and causing head and facial injuries.

When he came to, he knew who he was, but "little else," according to a Natural Resources police officer.

The agency tweeted Friday that Meilhammer was in stable condition and awaiting more tests at Baltimore's Shock Trauma Center.

If there was a contest for the shortest publication time for a newspaper, then “Yas No” would be the winner.

The publication hit the newsstands on May 16 for the first time in six years, relaunched by reformists hoping to use the paper to get their message out ahead of the June 12 presidential vote.

Yet just a few hours later, the newspaper was ordered to halt publication by Tehran prosecutor Saeed Mortazavi.

"Yas No” was banned nearly six years ago after it published a letter from reformist members of parliament questioning the role of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in the mass disqualification of candidates running in the 2004 parliamentary election.

A few months ago, a judge gave approval for the paper to resume publishing. But Mortazavi filed an appealJoey Logano wins at Talladega and moves on to the round of 8.

Team Penske is clutch at Talladega Superspeedway. Joey Logano picked up right where teammate Brad Keselowski left off at the Alabama track, scoring a much-needed win in the Hellman's 500 and advancing in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Chase playoffs to the Round of Eight. Logano's second win of the season was also his second-straight in the Talladega fall race. Bliss for Logano was depression for others with Chase title hopes. Here is how it unfolded.

Quick Shakedown: Martin Truex Jr. (finished 40th) entered Talladega 13 points to the good on the Chase bubble and started the race on the pole. NASCAR found a hollowed jack bolt on the No. 78 in pre-qualifying inspection Saturday, but


said the explicitly illegal part would likely not cause a points penalty.

Brad Keselowski (38th), in almost certain need of a win to advance in the Chase at his best track led the first 11 laps, before Truex Jr. took two circuits up front. But Keselowski dominated the day, only ceding the lead briefly to the likes of Chase Elliott (12th) and Greg Biffle (15th) and a few others during pit sequences.

Truex Jr.'s Chase went up in smoke on lap 43 just after the first pit stops, as his engine let go and doomed him to a last place finish. Truex Jr.'s dream season will not end that way.

During those same pit stops, Logano somehow left his pit stall with the jack stuck under the car, meaning he hadto serve a penalty. But the caution laps erased any deficit and let the team repair the car.

The next 67 laps were all green and Keselowski led most of them. Biffle, Jeffrey Earnhardt (34th), and Casey Mears (39th) got together on lap 115, ending Mears' day. Earnhardt was driving a black, white, and red Starter-sponsored No. 83 Toyota for BK Racing, sporting a paint scheme similar to his late grandfather's.

Then another big bomb dropped on lap 146, when Keselowski got debris on his grille for the third time in the race as the leader. The team orchestrated a plan with Ryan Blaney (11th) swapping the lead with Keselowski, to scrub off the debris. But as soon as the 2 car's nose got clean yet again, the high water


temperatures' damage to the engine killed it. Keselowski's day and Chase were done.

Elliott hung in the top 5 the first half of the race,even leading nine laps but once a green flag stop shuffled him back, he could not move forward. Passing in the pack was very difficult yet again at a plate race.

Keselowski's demise left the race in the hands of Logano. Both Team Penske drivers masterfully switched lanes in front of the pack to keep surging lines at bay, their respective spotters giving them the perfect info on what each lane was doing. And they both skillfully side drafted their ways to the lead, Keselowski doing so almost at will. Once Logano got out front, he was unstoppable.

Logano had led the last couple of restarts and12 laps); Kurt Busch (ran near front most of day); Ricky Stenhouse Jr. (very racy and aggressive at the front); Kyle Larson (see Stenhouse Jr. comment); Kevin Harvick (just racing for a flag and angered at being shuffled back on last lap); Aric Almirola (best finish of season, like his RPM teammate Scott); Austin Dillon (tied Hamlin for 8th in points, lost on tiebreaker, heartbreaker); A.J. Allmendinger (ran in back most of day, overcame a pit road speeding penalty on the first stops, surged at the end).

The points: The remaining eight Chase drivers all have 4,000 points each, as the Round of Eight begins.Truex Jr. leads Keselowski by 23 points and the other former Chase drivers that could finish as high as 5th in points.

RaceTweet: Keselowski and Logano


both needed to win. Keselowski dominates, but Logano takes the checkers at Talladega. Elliott, Keselowski, Truex Jr., and Logano are out of the Chase.

Handsome Boy Modeling School Stud of the Race: Brad Keselowski - Not since Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s Talladega glory days in the mid-2000s, has there been a driver with a strategy so dominant at the track as Keselowski. He led 90 laps, drove to the front easily when he got back in traffic, and pretty much had the race won without an engine failure. If Logano's execution was very good, Keselowski's and the No. 2 team's was excellent (except in the debris removal department).

North Korean Missile Dud: Tony Stewart - Most know Stewart's extreme disdain for Talladega racing, but seeing Stewart at least attempt to makea run for the win would have been entertaining for his large fan base. Stewart took the JGR strategy and ran in the back of the pack all day, finishing 32nd. Yawn.

You Can Comeback, But You Can't Stay Here: Denny Hamlin - As Dillon surged near the end of the race, Hamlin and the No. 11 team's heart fluttered. Hamlin had put himself in position to run up front, even after speeding on the first pit stop, but the unpredictability of the draft had him on thin ice. Then he made some moves and finished 3rd, tying tie Dillon in the standings. Hamlin won the tie on wins (three to Dillon's zero).

Ghost Driver: Most any teammate of a driver that was low in the Chase standings - Yeah.


The other JGR cars laid back to play the race safe, but also to make sure and not cost Hamlin any points. Hamlin pretty much said so after the race. Elliott's Hendrick Motorsports stablemates Kahne, Alex Bowman, and Johnson knew their main job was to help the No. 24 win. Did we hear a peep from anyone from Richard Childress Racing, but Dillon? No.

Never Fear, Underdog is Here: Brian Scott - Scott drove into the top 5 after the final pit stops and wedged his way into 2nd and right on Logano's bumper at the end. He has had the rookie season from hell, as has all of Richard Petty Motorsports. Scott's 2nd and Almirola's 8th are the first top 10s in all of 2016 for RPM. Afterthe race, Scott stood by himself outside his No. 44 - the media attention surrounded the Chase drivers. Here is my interview with him.

Wheel of Misfortune: Martin Truex Jr. - The second half of 2016 has seen Truex Jr. shake the "hard luck" moniker. But the bad clutch at Charlotte, the malfunctioning fuel plate at Kansas, and the detonated engine at Talladega ended the Chase for the driver that has led the most laps this season and is tied for the series lead in wins. I watched a dejected No. 78 team start running back to the garage to fix their Bass Pro Shops Toyota, only to slow to a walk as they realized their day and their title ended.

Jimmie Johnson's Golden Horseshoe: Joey Logano - As Truex


Jr. blew up, Logano left pit road with his jack and had to slow dramatically on the track to keep it from tearing up the car. That and the subsequent "dragging equipment" penalty would have cost him a tough lap to make up. But Truex Jr.'s misfortune was Logano's saving grace and kept him in position to pounce when Keselowski's day ended. Another man's trash, is another man's treasure.

Head-Scratcher Crown of Thorns: Earlier when I said "Most any teammate…" regarding how drivers laid back to help their teammates stay or get in the Chase, I left room for one that didn't. Harvick was running inside the top 5 and raced hard with Ku. Busch for position, appearing to almost make contact in the closing laps. Busch objected andin points to keep him from showing that aggression to Harvick.

Georgia On My Mind: Chase Elliott did everything he could to try and win and just could not get any help at the end to move forward. He finished 12th and now is 12th in points, but could finish as high as 5th at season's end.

David Ragan had SweetFrog Yogurt on board the No. 23 and was actually racy toward the end of the race. He got the free pass from about the 34th spot and then drove to 13th. The former Talladega winner finished 24th.

Reed Sorenson actually led Round 1 of qualifying and started the race 12th. But he pulled into the garage in the opening laps with a mechanical problem and returned to the race 11
