Iranians.

The U.S said IR Flight 655 was in international airspace, but the black box proved the flight to have been in Iranian airspace. The U.S. maintained the plane was descending toward its warship, the USS Vincennes, while the black box and recorded radar proved the plane was climbing. The U.S. claimed the plane did not have its commercial beacon on, but an international investigation proved the transponder for commercial flights was operating, fully functional and was providing its signal. The U.S. initially claimed to have been in international waters, but Admiral William J. Crowe Jr. finally admitted in Senate testimony that the U.S. was in Iranian territorial waters conducting a covert war against Iran to bolster Saddam’s war effort that was proving to be a losing cause inwhich Iran began to press its advantage. For this crime the U.S. refused to offer an apology and awarded the ship’s weapons officer military honors. This shootdown was just one instance of covert warfare the US has waged and continues to wage against Iran. They destroyed Iranian oil platforms that were in the ocean. They also assassinated Iranian retired generals and scientists, and the US funded and supplied various terorist groups inside Iran.

The US now uses social media as its evidence in assigning blame to the shootdown of MH17, but when literally dozens of people saw a missile take down TWA Flight 800, the US assured everyone it was not the US Navy that was conducting war games in the vicinity, but that the missile tracks were merely


and not a single plane. .

Here is why we will never know the truth about Flight MH 17: During the Syrian War against al Qaeda and al Nusra Front, Takfiri fighters claimed Assad used chemical weapons. This claimed use by Assad would have meant that Assad decided to use chemical weapons in areas where he specifically invited international inspectors to prove he had not used chemical weapons while the inspectors were in the process of carrying out inspections. When crude chemical weapons not of the specifications in chemical composition or delivery systems consistent with what was in the Syrian arsenal were used immediately after U.N. inspectors were deployed to those same areas, the U.S. then sought public support in waging war against Assad while foregoing preliminary yet conclusivecome to be named “Collateral Murder” in which an unarmed camera crew was slaughtered and later a rescuer with his two children came under attack by the same U.S. helicopter crew, the helicopter gunner after being told they had killed children said, “Well, it’s their fault for bringing their kids to a battle.” What battle is there when a helicopter attacks an unarmed news crew and then an unarmed Iraqi civilian rescuer and his two young children? For exposing this war crime PVT Manning endured torture and is spending decades in a military prison while Julian Assange has spent years hiding in an embassy to avoid extradition to the U.S.

degrades every international organization even by only speaking with them. She and Kerry ought to be turned away by every government with which they attempt to meet.

The hypocrisy of the U.S. is turning the entire world against it. The U.S. bemoans its lack of support in waging more wars when it is exactly the waging of wars that has gotten the U.S. government in a position in which it believes it must spy on its allies as even its allies seek to distance themselves from U.S. calls to war. The more the U.S. attempts to act unilaterally, the more the rest of the civilized world continues to balance themselves against its onslaught. While Obama seeks to blame Putin for this tragedy, the truth is that the Malaysian flightThe feud between Elon Musk and Azealia Banks first emerged while Musk was under fire for his famous "funding secured" tweet that later led to him being sued by the SEC for securities fraud. Banks was a guest in Musk's home around the time Musk sent out the Tweet, reportedly invited by Musk's then girlfriend, Grimes.

Lately, however, Banks had been relatively quiet about Musk – until last Friday.

Shareholders are trying to subpoena Banks as part of a lawsuit against Musk surrounding the "funding secured" fiasco. When Musk's lawyer, Dean Kristy, filed a motion to argue against the subpoena, the contents of the filing set Banks off again.

Three years ago on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Christopher Taloa, an actor and former professional body boarder, tried to honor the famous civil rights leader with a paddle-out for surfers at Lunada Bay in Palos Verdes Estates — an infamous surf break where outsiders are not welcome.

Taloa, whose credits include the 2002 surf film “Blue Crush,” says that the local surfers he encountered did not judge him by the content of his character.

Members of the so-called Bay Boys, he says, kicked him and forced him underwater. One paddled out in blackface wearing an Afro wig. “You don’t pay enough taxes to be here,” Taloa quoted the person as saying.

Another surfer kicked him, he says.

Labour needs to differentiate between progressive and reactionary forces in the Middle East. As much between Palestinians – working to bolster the moderate forces in Palestinian society vis-à-vis Hamas and others who want confrontation rather than negotiation with Israel, as much as within the Syrian opposition.

With political Islamism in the ascendency in the Middle East, it is important that Britain sends clear and consistent messages that it is committed to Israel’s security and its right to defend itself. The UK should make clear to Sunni powers with influence over Hamas – Egypt, Qatar and Turkey – that they must use that influence to rein in Hamas and pressure it to keep the peace in the Gaza Strip.

Though the university already has a solid EOP in place they are always looking to improve and update it on a regular basis. A major part of this improvement comes in the form of planning so the University of West Georgia recently created a new position known as the Director of Emergency Management and hired Michael Nelson to fill that role.

Nelson, a retired Naval Flight officer, is no stranger to emergency management. In his time with the military he was on a joint staff that was responsible forthe continental U.S. and training all the services. They established an organization known as Joint Task Force Civil Support that works to train people to handle large incidents, primarily regarding chemical and biological disasters, should they happen in the U.S. Following his time with this joint staff Nelson worked as a contractor to teach Marine and Naval staffs to operate weapons systems before he began working for the Virginia Department of Emergency Management in 2007.

In his time as a contractor, Nelson took a Community Emergency Response Team class that trains people in communities how to respond when an emergency happens. Since then he has taken additional courses to become a certified campus CERT instructor and intends on bringing this type of class to UWG.

- [Instructor] With its gold
color and stunning rings,
Saturn is quite a planetary gem.
Saturn is the second-largest
of the eight planets,
and it is about ten
times as wide as Earth.
Despite its size, Saturn is
actually the lightest planet.
It is predominantly made of
the gases hydrogen and helium.
And because of its particular
gaseous composition,
Saturn is the only planet
in the solar system
that's less dense than water.
If the planet were placed
on an enormous ocean,
it would be able to float.
Saturn's gaseous makeup also means
that it has no true surface.
At its center, the planet has a dense core
of water, ice, and rocky material,
but it has no actual landmass.
Instead, it's mostly
made of gases, liquids,
and yellow ammonia crystals
that swirl around the planet,
creating golden clouds and storms.
The largest storm on Saturn
is at its north pole.
It's over twice the size of Earth
and shapedin a near-perfect hexagon.
Each of the six sides is believed
to be the result of jet streams,
which all encircle a massive hurricane.
Because of Saturn's
inhospitable environment,
the planet cannot support life -
but some of its moons might.
Saturn has more than 50 confirmed moons,
and each varies in size and terrain.
Enceladus, one of Saturn's smallest moons,
is covered in ice and only about
as wide as the state of Pennsylvania.
Titan, Saturn's largest moon,
is nearly as wide as Canada.
Titan is also the only
moon in the solar system
with clouds and a dense atmosphere.
Both Titan and Enceladus
have underground oceans
that would make them potentially
capable of sustaining life.
Saturn's moons may also
play a role in shaping
the planet's signature feature: its rings.
Saturn's ring system is the largest
and most complex in the
entire solar system.
The rings are made of
icy and rocky remnants
from comets, asteroids,


and moons.
The particles range in size
from being as small as dust
to as big as mountains.
The ring system is divided
into seven groups of rings.
Altogether, they are as wide
as four-and-a-half Earths,
but only about two-thirds of a mile thick.
How the rings are able to
stay on track and intact
has to do with Saturn's smallest moons.
Called Shepherding moons,
these tiny satellites
orbit between the rings,
and they seem to use their gravity
to shape the ring material
into circular paths.
Saturn has fascinated scientists
and amateur astronomers
alike for thousands of years.
The ancient Greeks and Romans,
who named the planet after
their god of agriculture,
believed it was a star.
It wasn't until the 17th century,
after the telescope was invented,
that scientists like Galileo Galilei,
Christiaan Huygens, and Giovanni Cassini
could take a much closer look.
Only then was Saturn's
planetary status discovered
and, ultimately, its many
moons and brilliant rings.
Because ofBritain's opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn has vowed to pursue a foreign policy that will not fuel conflicts but solve them if elected, while criticising Saudi Arabia for its "cruel" war in Yemen and urging Myanmar to end the violence against the Rohingya.

Corbyn made the comments in an energetic speech at the Labour Party conference in Brighton on Wednesday.

In his wide-ranging address, which was largely focused on Britain's future after its exit from the European Union, the Labour leader said he would put the pursuit of peace and human rights at the centre of his foreign policy if he became prime minister.

He also called for greater accountability by governments engaged in conflicts around the world.

Here are some of the subjects Corbyn covered in his speech - in his own

Dragon 32

The Dragon 32 is a home computer that was built in the 1980s. The Dragon are very similar to the TRS-80 Color Computer (CoCo), and were produced for the European market by Dragon Data, Ltd., in Port Talbot, Wales. The model numbers reflect the primary difference between the two machines, which have 32 and 64 kilobytes of RAM, respectively.


Iraqi capital, from which its leader declared a modern-day caliphate in 2014, would be a major boost for the plans by Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi and the United States to weaken the militant group.

Abadi has pledged to retake Mosul by the end of the year.

Some U.S. officials caution that retaking the city without a plan to restore security, basic services and governance would be a major mistake and question the ability of Iraq’s Shi’ite-government in Baghdad to mend the sectarian divide fueling the conflict.

Votel broadly acknowledged concerns about the non-military aspects of the campaign but said he felt more upbeat after meetings on Wednesday with top Iraqi officials, including Abadi.

“While there is still a lot of work to do – a lot of work to do –I left more encouraged,” he said, stressing the importance that U.S.-backed military operations “pay off on the political side.”

With the latest troop increase, the United States has an official limit of just over 4,600 troops formally assigned to Iraq, although the actual figure is higher due to temporary assignments.

Obama has opposed recommitting the United States to another large-scale ground war in the Middle East and any deployment of forces to Iraq would likely need to be measured.

Republican leaders this week called on Obama to ask Congress for additional funds to pay for the deployment of more troops to Iraq, as Congress and the White House debate defense spending amid mandatory budget cuts.

Cyber-attack on German government IT network 'ongoing' Published duration 1 March 2018

A cyber-attack on Germany's government IT network is "ongoing", officials say, a day after they said it had been "brought under control".

"It is a very serious cyber-attack," said Armin Schuster, who chairs the parliamentary committee that oversees the intelligence services.

The defence and interior ministries' private networks are being affected.

The officials did not confirm media reports that a Russian hacking group known as Fancy Bear was responsible.

The group, which is also known as APT28 and is believed to be linked to Russia's GRU military intelligence agency, is reported to have targeted the federal government's internal communications network with malware.

Russia has not commented onthe issue.

"It is an ongoing affair, an ongoing attack," Mr Schuster said on Thursday.

"So a detailed public discussion would simply be a warning to the attacker which we do not want to make," he added.

Members of parliament have complained that they have been kept in the dark about the attack that - according to German media - was detected in December.

German security officials say they have allowed the hackers controlled access in order to track culprits and observe their methods.

On Wednesday, a German interior ministry spokesman said the attack was "isolated" and had been "brought under control"


Self-riveting male fastening elements of the type disclosed herein were first developed by Profil Verbindungstechnik GmbH & Co. KG of Germany, a company related to the assignee of the present application, as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,092,724. The fastening element includes a tubular or annular piercing and riveting portion or barrel portion which in the preferred embodiment pierced an opening in the panel which is then received through the panel opening into a die member having an annular concave die cavity. The die then deforms the free end of the barrel or riveting portion radially outwardly to permanently attach the fastening element to the panel. The fastening element further includes a radial flange portion which is driven into the panel as the free end of the tubularin 1971, becoming an income partner in 1978 and a capital partner in 1982. In spring 1987, a secretary in the Chicago office told Linda Johnson, the director of administration, that Greenstein had committed acts of sexual harassment against her. The secretary apparently threatened legal action. As manager of the nonlegal staff, Johnson lacked authority over Greenstein, but she told him that his conduct had been inappropriate. She also reported the matter to Robert Cunningham, the chairman of the Chicago office committee, telling Cunningham that she had just prevented a sexual harassment charge from being filed by the secretary. Neither Cunningham nor any other person with authority over Greenstein took action as a result of Johnson's report.
In fall or winter 1987, Johnson told Cunningham she would resign from


about the circumstances, he did not place the memorandum in Greenstein's personnel file or otherwise establish a record of the accusations made against Greenstein. Cunningham simply kept the memorandum in his own office.
In early summer or late spring of 1988, Greenstein began to bother Melinda Faier, a young associate attorney. He sent her a vulgar note. He brushed up against her. Once, when she was wearing shorts and a tank top while working over the weekend, Greenstein leaned over her, telling her that he was turned on by what she was wearing. On one or two occasions he threw a pencil at her breasts. On another occasion, when Faier was working late in the library and had kicked off her shoes, Greenstein crawled underneath the table to ticklemight be made against him, Coleman would "kick his ass to China." The administrative committee later heard that Faier was making statements to other associates about Greenstein's sexual harassment of her, that she felt that she was being "set up" and unfairly treated by the firm and that she would make her claims of harassment public if her concerns were not addressed. Faier was called in and asked about these statements. She denied making them. A memorandum of the reports and Faier's denial was written and placed in her personnel file. No other investigation was made of Faier's claims. No documentation was made of them or of the action taken in response to them. No documentation about the claims was placed in Greenstein's personnel file. Faier left the


firm in the summer of 1989, to take a clerkship with the federal Court of Appeals. She contacted Baker & McKenzie after the clerkship ended, but was not invited to return to the firm.
By late 1988, Greenstein was developing an intellectual property practice in Palo Alto, California, where he relocated in 1990. Cunningham and Coleman spoke about Greenstein to Virginia Gibson, a San Francisco partner acting as liaison for Greenstein's relocation to California. They told Gibson that Greenstein was very bright and talented, but that he tended to engage in juvenile conduct and they had received a complaint about him from one of the associates. Gibson relayed the information to the administrative partner, Jonathan Kitchen, and to Ed Burmeister, who later succeeded Kitchen as administrative partner. When Burmeisterwas succeeded by Bill Atkin, Gibson told Atkin about her conversation with Cunningham and Coleman. None of these persons told individuals who might be working with Greenstein, including the personnel manager in the Palo Alto office, that Greenstein could cause problems. Gibson testified, however, that she did warn Greenstein that conduct such as had been reported would be unacceptable in Palo Alto. Greenstein denied that he had engaged in the conduct.
Notwithstanding Gibson's warning, Greenstein's offensive conduct continued. In 1989, Greenstein met Donna Blow, a secretary in Baker & McKenzie's San Francisco office. By July 1989 Blow became concerned about Greenstein's conversations with her. Although Greenstein was married at the time, he would ask Blow out to dinner or over to his motel to join him *1140 in a


hot tub. He commented on her appearance. He made her extremely uncomfortable. Blow attempted to evade Greenstein's invitations, but he persisted. Finally, after Greenstein sent a proposition over a "current machine" (an early form of electronic mail), Blow sent back a message that she didn't date married people, but even if she did, she would not be inclined to date a married man because she was gay. The telephone rang about a minute later. Greenstein was on the line, breathing heavily. He said that she shouldn't send messages like that. He then asked her if she really was gay, and when she confirmed that she was, said, "Do you think you and one of your friends, one of your girlfriends could come down and we could have aher sweater, and said, "Are you wearing a black bra?" Another attorney walked into the kitchen, and Greenstein turned away from Zahn. Zahn, telling herself she "didn't need this crap," walked out of Baker & McKenzie's offices, threw her key to the office into a dumpster, and never went back. A few months later Zahn told a coworker, Myles Walker, about Greenstein's conduct. Walker told Contreras that Zahn would not be back because she did not like working for Greenstein. There is no evidence that anyone from Baker & McKenzie spoke further with Zahn about the incident or her reasons for walking away from her job.
In December 1989, Julie Haydock-Davis was working for Baker & McKenzie as a temporary receptionist. Greenstein started telling her off-color jokes, making her


uncomfortable. By the third day of Haydock-Davis's employment, Greenstein was discussing his hot tub, suggesting that she might like to join him in it. He started to rub her arm gently, stating he would show her how to do massage and one never knows where that might lead. Haydock-Davis was so uncomfortable that she called her father, who told her to "get the hell out of there now." Haydock-Davis called the temporary agency, saying she would not be going back to Baker & McKenzie. She made a formal statement, explaining her reasons. Haydock-Davis's complaint was reported to Contreras. Contreras told persons on the firm's *1141 administrative committee, including Burmeister, about the report. No one told Contreras to investigate the matter further. No one told her that there hadhot tub with three or four people. He looked her over, telling her that he liked the high collar blouse she was wearing. It reminded him of his first wife. He stated that he also really liked "low collared." He asked her if she had a boyfriend. When she said she did not, he asked how long it had been since she had a boyfriend. Once when she was working late, he came up behind her, put his hand on her shoulder in what she perceived to be a suggestive way, and said, "Oh, are you putting in an all-nighter?" If he was nearby when she entered or exited the department, he stroked his hands across her shoulder as she went by. He would touch her, look her


up and down, stand very close or back her into a wall. Gardner complained about Greenstein's behavior to Walker and to Twila Carlsen, who also worked in the department.
In September 1990, Greenstein came up behind Gardner as she leaned over her desk, put his hands on her hips and pressed his body into hers. Later the same week, he put his hands on her hips as they passed in the hall. Gardner became afraid to go to her desk. The next time she was called into Contreras's office, she blurted out that she would return to her desk only "if Marty would keep his hands to himself." Gardner told Contreras about Greenstein's conduct. Contreras called Atkin, then the administrative partner in San Francisco. A meeting was set upbetween Gardner, Atkin and Contreras. Gardner described her problems with Greenstein. Atkin appeared to be surprised about Gardner's report, but told Gardner that he took her word for it and was willing to act on her complaints. Gardner stated that she wished to be physically removed from Greenstein's department, that she wanted to make no written complaint, wanted her name kept out of the process and wanted Greenstein to get counseling. Gardner also suggested that they speak with Walker, and later, after receiving Twila Carlsen's *1142 permission, that they speak with Carlsen. Atkin suggested that Gardner tell Neil Greenstein her reasons for transferring, and seek his permission to move.
Atkin later told Gardner that he and three other partners had met with Greenstein. He suggested that Gardner speak with


a counselor personally. Gardner was in favor of the idea, although she hoped she could speak anonymously. She asked that other secretaries also be allowed to speak anonymously to the counselor. At some point Gardner asked that the firm distribute information as to how to handle complaints such as hers. Gardner was transferred, temporarily, away from Greenstein. She was told to work for Mary Rossman. Gardner did not want to work for Rossman because it would mean that she would be stationed close to Greenstein, and because she was of the opinion that Rossman was being pushed out of the firm. Gardner was concerned that she was being set up to be fired. She called the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH), making an appointment forlate November. In late October, Gardner was called to a meeting with Contreras and Neil Greenstein. She was told that she had to work for Rossman and that if she refused she would be considered to be insubordinate. She refused, and walked out.
Gardner called Atkin, telling him that she was disappointed with the response to her complaints, that she had an appointment with the DFEH, and that she believed she was being set up to be fired. She asked him what was being done to make the environment safe for secretaries. She testified that no information on filing complaints had been distributed, but a joke or cartoon had been placed on the wall that seemed to treat harassment as a joke. Gardner was not comforted by Atkin's reply.


He told her that "I had made an allegation. Marty had made a denial. He said as regards my access to a counselor, he said counseling input by the victim is discretionary, so he wouldn't give me the name of the counselor. He said we are not a judge and a jury. You'd have to go to court for that. He said, we'll not be dictated to by secretaries as to their assignments."
Gardner testified that she continued to work for Neil Greenstein, but her work load changed. She was assigned more work, but her support was decreased. Neil Greenstein began to ridicule her as a person and to ridicule her work. Gardner was told that there were no other options available to her in Palo Alto. She ultimatelythe firm at the end of February.
In the meantime, as Gardner had suggested, Contreras spoke to Twila Carlsen. Carlsen told her that Greenstein made her uncomfortable. He made "dumb blonde" jokes around her, suggesting that she was a dumb blonde. He asked her if she had a social disease. He put his face uncomfortably close to hers. On one occasion Carlsen was sitting at her desk when she felt something poke into her back. Greenstein was behind her. When she asked him what was in her back, he said, "Just happy to see you." Carlsen stated that she did not want to work for Greenstein. Contreras later told Carlsen that Baker & McKenzie's management was aware of problems between Greenstein and women employees, but they could not compel


him to go into counseling. Atkin recalled that no counseling occurred because Contreras was unable to find a counselor willing to work with Greenstein unless Gardner was willing to give up her anonymity.
During this time period another employee, Stephanie Brookins, told Contreras that she wanted to speak to her about Greenstein. The subject of Brookins's planned discussion had nothing to do with sexual harassment, but before she began to speak, Contreras asked her, "Is this about sexual harassment?"
Weeks began to work as Greenstein's secretary on July 23, 1991. She had little to do with Greenstein at first as she was attending training classes to learn about a new computer system. On August 8, the Thursday of her third week at the firm, Weeks had lunch with several persons,including Greenstein, at a local restaurant. As they left the restaurant, Greenstein gave her some M&M candies, which she put into the breast pocket of her blouse. A short time later, as they walked to Greenstein's car, Greenstein pulled Weeks back, put his arm over her shoulder, put his hand in her breast pocket and dropped more candies into the pocket. He then put his knee in her lower back, pulled her shoulders back, and said, "Let's see which breast is bigger." Weeks was shocked, and found it hard to concentrate on her work for the rest of the day. The following day she spoke with Greenstein's other secretary, Sandra Tischler-Bass, who told her that it sounded like something Greenstein would do and to let Tischler-Bass take care


of it. The following week Greenstein was highly critical of Weeks's work. On August 14, Weeks ran into Greenstein as he was carrying a box. He put the box down, lunging *1144 towards her with his hands cupped. When she moved back, crossing her hands over her chest, he asked if she was afraid that he was going to grab her. The following day Weeks and several others, including Greenstein, had lunch at a local restaurant. Weeks's food arrived first, but Greenstein grabbed it and wolfed it down. He later turned to Weeks, asking her, "What's the wildest thing you have ever done?" In the meantime, Greenstein continued to be critical of Weeks's work, yelling at her and calling her an imbecile. She was becoming petrified. A shorttime later, Weeks agreed to help Tischler-Bass move some file cabinets out of Greenstein's office into Tischler-Bass's van and then to Greenstein's house. At one point Weeks was leaning over the van, arranging things, when she felt someone grab her buttocks. It was Greenstein. Tischler-Bass then pulled her along, saying, "You are coming with me." Weeks testified that Greenstein's conduct left her petrified, angry and confused.
On August 23, an employee handbook was left on Weeks's desk. In it Weeks found a statement of the firm policy on sexual harassment. After reading it, Weeks contacted Contreras. She told Contreras about the problems she was having with Greenstein, describing the behavior she perceived to be sexual harassment. Contreras sent Weeks home for the day. Contreras later told her that the


administrative committee felt that it was best that Weeks transfer to another department. Contreras made notes of her conversations with Weeks, placing them in Weeks's file. Nothing, however, was placed in Greenstein's file. The administrative committee gave Contreras no instructions about investigating Weeks's claims other than to tell her to speak with Tischler-Bass. Contreras reported back to the committee that she believed Weeks's claims had substance.
Weeks was assigned to work for a paralegal, Mary Boyd, and an attorney, John Peterson. Although Greenstein was only infrequently in that part of the office, Weeks was nervous about him. Shortly after she returned to work, Greenstein walked to the desk next to her and just stared at her for perhaps a minute. No one spoke with Weeks about her claims. Contreras,Boyd and Peter Astiz (an attorney on the administrative committee) did meet with Weeks in mid-September, but not about her claims of sexual harassment. Boyd was unhappy with Weeks's performance. Contreras told Weeks that she had not worked out since the beginning and was still not working up to the firm's expectations. When Weeks protested that she had been affected by Greenstein's behavior, she was told that had nothing to do with it. Weeks left Baker & McKenzie at the end of September.
In the meantime, on August 30, 1991, the administrative committee met about Greenstein. The committee suggested that Greenstein attend sexual *1145 harassment counseling. Greenstein agreed to the counseling. The committee asked Contreras to obtain some referrals to counselors. The committee interviewed a recommended counselor, Trisha Brinkman,


attorney and filed her complaint on May 20, 1992. She testified that she started to feel better after legal proceedings were initiated and learned that other women had had experiences with Greenstein similar to hers.
Baker & McKenzie monitored the proceedings initiated by Weeks. The firm did not itself investigate Greenstein's conduct or take any action against him for over a year. As late as April 1993, Baker & McKenzie's position was that it would take appropriate action when the judicial process had been completed. Nonetheless, at the end of August 1993, and before the judicial process had been completed, Baker & McKenzie did act to remove Greenstein from the partnership. The decision to remove Greenstein, however, was precipitated not by his acts of sexual harassment, but by thethe injury he could be expected to cause to employees. Whatever the cause of Baker & McKenzie's inaction, it certainly tended to communicate both to Greenstein and to those who worked around him that Baker & McKenzie did not take his misconduct seriously. There is evidence that persons who complained about Greenstein's actions were transferred or were themselves terminated as employees with the firm. There is evidence that Bill Atkin, the head of the administrative committee both before and after Weeks was employed, knew that a number of allegations had been made against Greenstein, and indeed believed that Greenstein had engaged in serious misconduct. There is evidence that one of the earlier claimants (Vicki Gardner) pressed Atkin to see to it that Greenstein received counseling. She also asked


no evidence that she was in any way an active participant in it. The action was for employment discrimination in hiring, promotion and pay. Sexual harassment was not an issue. The juror submitted an affidavit in which he declared that he did not respond to the voir dire questions because his wife had not made any claim for sexual harassment and he did not hear or understand that information relating to sexual discrimination claims had been solicited. He believed that his wife had been awarded backpay, which he did not understand to be "damages." He was not aware that Attorney Exelrod had been involved in his wife's case. Other jurors submitted affidavits that the juror never mentioned his wife's case during deliberations.
This evidence does not disclose juror misconduct.Football League franchise to Toronto.

Recently, a top executive for MLSE toured the Argos football facility at the University of Torontos Mississauga campus, which has housed the CFL club for close to two decades.

The Argos, when they were searching recently for a full-time training facility, toured Downsview Park, a site where MLSE built a soccer complex for Toronto FC.

Synergies are always explored among teams and the citys top executives talk often, if not on a daily basis.

Big picture, its no secret the Argos will need both a new owner and the ability to control home dates by having their own facility.

The questions remain when and who ultimately ends up owning the team at a time when Braley isnt getting any younger  and eventually hell have to sell both


the B.C. Lions and Argos.

In Toronto, the Argos are slowly turning around their off-field status, while their on-field product, when quarterback Ricky Ray is healthy, is in good shape with all the key pieces locked up.

The fact MLSE has taken a look at the Argos, even in a peripheral way, speaks to a vision that clearly involves the NFL, at least thats the scenario painted by many in the industry, who, at this point, arent prepared to go public.

In the years 2003 to 2009, similar surveys showed an average of 11 percent of respondents harboring antipathy to Jewish individuals. That figures jumped to 28 percent in 2010, decreasing slightly to 24 percent in 2011 and to 21 percent in December 2013, as documented in the foundation’s survey.

The survey was released ahead of the biannual convention of the Rabbinical Centre of Europe, which brought several hundred Orthodox rabbis, many of them from the Chabad-Lubavitch movement, to the Hungarian capital.

The conference is taking place amid a dispute between the Jewish communities and the government over the government’s planned commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the Holocaust in Hungary. The Jewish


historian Randoph Braham is returning a high honor from the Hungarian state as a protest against attempts to whitewash Hungary’s role in the Holocaust, Braham said in a letter quoted by the Hungarian state news agency MTI on Sunday.

Braham, 91, a Holocaust survivor, wrote that he was handing back the Cross of the Order of Merit “with a heavy heart” following recent developments in Hungary.

The Bucharest-born scholar and expert on the Holocaust in Hungary also said he would no longer permit the Budapest Holocaust Memorial Center to use his name for one of its research departments.

Braham, an emeritus professor at the City University of New York, wrote in the letter, “The campaign of history falsification which aims to whitewash the (Miklos) Horthy era has shocked me.” Horthy ledamong the largest Jewish events in Hungary.

MRS. BUSH: Last year, I presented this award to the family of another
First Lady -- one First Lady that I've always admired -- Lady Bird Johnson.
I'm honored to join her company tonight as the second recipient of the
National Park Foundation's Founders Award. Thankyou all very, very much.
(Applause.)

And thanks to Regan and Roland for your very kind words tonight. Thanks to
everybody that's here that was in the video. That was really great to see
the superintendents and the kids. And thanks very much for that lovely
video.

I want to acknowledge Secretary Dirk Kempthorne, the Secretary of Interior
and the Chairman of the National Park Foundation; Vin Cipolla, President
and CEO of the National Park Foundation, and Celine, his wife, who is with
him; Director Mary Bomar, Director of the National Park Service; all of the
National Park Foundation board members that you saw a minute ago when they
stood up. And congratulations to Discovery Communications on being
recognized for your leadership in corporate philanthropy for our national
parks.

Thanks to all of the national park fans, nature enthusiasts, history buffs,
and the


year in a national park. And it was through one of these childhood
friends, Regan Gammon, who you just met, that I learned about the National
Park Foundation. I'd traveled in our parks for years, but I didn't know
anything about the foundation until a very smart park superintendent --
Suzanne Lewis from Yellowstone -- nominated Regan to serve on the National
Park Foundation board.

I now know now that the National Park Foundation is the philanthropic arm
of the National Park Service. Its work allows individual citizens,
foundations and corporations to help protect their favorite natural and
historic landmarks. And the National Park Foundation is helping our young
people grow up as good stewards of their environment through programs like
First Bloom. Today, I joined students for a First Bloom activity at the
Hamilton Grange National Memorial, which isAlexander Hamilton's historic
home. This house, which is still on property that once belonged to
Alexander Hamilton but is now a city site on 141st street, is being
refurbished and restored by the National Park Service, including a national
park restoration architect and a national park landscape architect.

Fourth-graders from a nearby school gathered there together. They're
helping with the relandscaping at this location in Harlem between row
houses and high rises. They're helping to plant native plants and learn
about the local wildlife.

Over the coming months, they'll work with park rangers, the National Park
Foundation, and the staff from Harlem Boys and Girls Clubs to plant
historic gardens that will restore the lawn around Alexander Hamilton's
home.

The students I met with today showed me seeds of Black-Eyed Susans and
other wildflowers that they'd planted in compostable cups. They described
how


Club at another site in Battery Park. Young
people there spent weeks searching for native plants, identifying invasive
species and carefully designing their gardens. Today, thousands of
tourists can enjoy the two gardens these students planted on the way to New
York's most famous park: the Statue of Liberty.

From New York City to Los Angeles, First Bloom is helping kids get their
hands dirty -- and fall in love with America's parks. The program is just
one way the National Park Foundation encourages our youngest citizens to
gain a personal stake in our oldest treasures.

Another important part of the program that the National Park Foundation
supports is the Junior Ranger program. This program guides hundreds of
thousands of children through their favorite national park and helps them
learn more about the park and its history. We hope thatsome of these
Junior Rangers will actually grow up and become real park rangers.

First Bloom and the Junior Ranger program wouldn't be possible without the
support of private citizens like each one of you. The people in this room
have joined a long tradition of philanthropy in America's parks -- one that
includes some of our nation's most famous donors, like John D. Rockefeller
and Paul Mellon, and some of our nation's youngest donors, like
schoolchildren who donated pennies toward the restoration of the Statue of
Liberty in the 1980s.

Private contributions are especially important now as we prepare for the
100th anniversary of the National Park System in 2016. Last year, the
National Park Foundation hosted a Leadership Summit on Partnership and
Philanthropy in Austin, bringing together corporate leaders,
philanthropists, and park experts to encourage continued support of
America's parks.

President


Bush has issued a Centennial Challenge in honor of the Park
System's upcoming milestone. He's called on individuals, foundations, and
the private sector to contribute to improvements in our national parks.
These new funds would help restore native plants to our parks, remove
invasive species, save sea turtles, install solar panels, and much, much
more.

Park Historian Barry Mackintosh wrote that, "Philanthropy is more than a
source of land and money for parks. It's a means of building and
strengthening bonds between parks and their advocates." For more than 40
years, the National Park Foundation has been leading this cause as the only
national charitable partner of America's parks. National parks are the
backdrop for many Americans' favorite memories -- including mine. Together
with the National Park Foundation, we can preserve these national wonders
and ensure park visitors make new memoriesNDIS funding, together with additional funding committed through the Council of Australian Governments, would increase the number of people with mental health issues who were assisted.

A spokeswoman for the federal Department of Social Services said no existing client of a Commonwealth mental health service would be left without support.

"Commonwealth mental health clients ineligible for the NDIS will continue to receive similar levels of support through existing Commonwealth programs until longer-term continuity of support arrangements start at full scheme from 1 July 2019," the spokeswoman said.

MHV also warned the funding changes would see at least 1,000 specialist staff lose their jobs by the end of the 2018-19 financial year.

North Central Greece

This area includes most of the huge plain of Thessaly on the southern end, where cotton, grains and tobacco are cultivated.

To the east of the plain is the Pilio Peninsula, a unique area with villages of stone houses in steep mountain forests, where there are many fruit and nut trees from which come a large percentage of Greece's apples, cherries, and nuts.

Predictably, all of the human activities that plague coastal areas near large urban centers (draining for construction and agriculture, dumping, hunting, etc.) has wiped out a lot of these areas and the rich wildlife that they supported, though a many remain such as Lake Kastoria.

Lake Tavropoulou

This large natural freshwater lake, at 620 meters (2033 feet) almost surrounds the town of the same name, which isconsidered one of the most beautiful towns in Greece, and sits on a peninsula that juts into the lake.

The name of the town comes from the Greek word for beaver, 'kastori', a mammal once found in great numbers here but wiped out by the fur trade, the beavers in the area driven to extinction by the 19th century.

Fur is still big business in this town, though, with various kinds of fur imported from Canada and Scandanavia.

Though Kastoria's lake has suffered in recent times from drainage for cultivation and pollution, it still has a good bird population.

Both white and Dalmatian pelicans come here, among many other wetland birds, and there are birds of prey in the surrounding hills which are wooded.

The article was a biased article that did not shed any light as to the situation. Instead of an accurate dissection of the NASL's flaws and missteps, the author simply cherry picked some stats and attendance figures and then proceeded to made a series of apples to rutabagas comparisons that had nothing to do with the true weaknesses in the NASL's front offices and mistakes in their approach, i.e. attempting to gain Division 1 status through the courts instead of concentrating on improving their infrastructure.

This thread would be a good place for any of us Southern Hemisphere guys to discuss those enigmatic and obscure rugby, league and maybe even cricket players, some of who just seemed to vanish off the scene, either near the start of their careers or towards the twilight.

It's also a good chance to bring up some ridiculous sporting odd-bods, who we can say "Remember when he was playing?"

They don't have to be current, just sort of disappeared when they were playing, or an obscure player we've all forgotten about.

Leafs haven't won Stanly cup since 1967. At least they're a play-off team. My youngest brother studied in Tariq Islamic School and their principal taught kids how leafs dissapointed him when he was a kid and he hates him. A bearded relegious figure saying that ;)

And raptors....lost 9 out of first 10 games in year 2005. My youngest brother is a big fan, go to his basketball practice in -30 C, watches every raptor game.

and English political economy. This synthesis of influences reflected Karl Marx’s biographical trajectory. As a young scholar at the University of Bonn, and later the University of Berlin, Marx initially studied law but quickly became enamored with philosophy. He wrote his doctoral dissertation, The Difference Between Democritean and Epicurean Philosophies of Nature, defending a more materialist and scientific approach to nature against what he took to be the superstitions of theology. Later, Marx became enamored with the thought of Georg Hegel and the Young Hegelians, collaborating with his friend and supporter Friedrich Engels to make his idealist dialectical philosophy more materialist. After parlaying with the French socialists and anarchists, he was exiled from several countries before landing in the United Kingdom. He published the first volume of his“dialectical” relations it has with the world around it; taking in solar energy from the sun, nutrients and water from the ground, releasing oxygen into the air, and so forth.

This was integral to his understanding of society. His criticism of the classical “vulgar economists” of his day were drawn from this dialectical philosophy. He saw classical economists as essentially regarding individuals as abstractly isolated in the world. From their standpoint, individuals looked after their private needs by engaging in mutually beneficial bartering and exchanges with others that were non-coercive and thereby legitimate. As per the tree example, Marx saw this as too abstract a way of looking at the economy. It was divorced from the actual relations that existed between people which had emerged from a complex and

England, who beat Fiji in their opening game, play Wales at Twickenham on Saturday

Rugby World Cup: England v Wales Venue: Twickenham Date: Saturday, 26 September Kick-off: 20:00 BST Coverage: Live on BBC Radio 5 live, plus live coverage on the BBC Sport website.

England fly-half George Ford will be dropped for the World Cup Pool A match against Wales on Saturday, with Owen Farrell replacing him.

With injured centre Jonathan Joseph missing the game at Twickenham, rugby league convert Sam Burgess is set to start alongside Brad Barritt.

Burgess, 26, will be winning only his third England cap.

Number eight Ben Morgan is also set to miss the match because of a minor knee injury, with Billy Vunipola coming in.

Morgan, 26, broke his leg inJanuary, ruling him out of the Six Nations, but returned to regain his starting place ahead of Vunipola for England's tournament opener.

Wasps flanker James Haskell will step up to the bench to face Wales.

Bath centre Joseph, 24, injured his chest as the hosts beat Fiji 35-11 on Friday.

England attack coach Andy Farrell said Joseph's injury was "nothing too serious" and would probably keep him out for "not more than a week", although it is understood he is a significant doubt for the match with Australia on 3 October.

Joseph scored four tries in England's Six Nations campaign earlier this year and is one of the most dangerous runners in England's backline.

After facing Wales, England play Australia, followed by Uruguay on 10 October, with the top two teams from the

Civil and political participation lies at the core of citizenship. Increasingly, people with intellectual disability are members of disability advisory bodies. This study investigated the political orientations of advisory body members with intellectual disability, their participatory experiences, and the types of support they received. The 9 people with intellectual disability who in 2005 were members of disability advisory bodies at a state, national, and Victorian local government level were interviewed, together with 12 other members or secretariat staff of these bodies. Observations were also conducted of advisory body meetings. The political perspective of members with intellectual disability varied, but all had a background in self-advocacy. They found the work


interpleader, Broesche refiled her previously adjudicated claims against TIE as counterclaims to the interpleader. TIE moved for summary judgment on these claims, and Broesche moved for partial summary judgment as to the conversion claim. In 2003, the trial court granted TIE's motion and denied Broesche's motion.
In January 2004, the remaining issues came to trial again. In a pretrial hearing, the trial court made its ruling regarding the interpretation of the decree, rejecting Broesche's arguments regarding the nature of her oil and gas interests as a matter of law. This ruling effectively resolved all remaining claims except Jacobson's and TIE's claims for attorneys' fees and sanctions against Broesche. The trial court had granted TIE's motion for sanctions on June 17, 2003 and awarded $17,500 to TIE but carried Jacobson'swrit of garnishment, which was later dismissed, in 1998. Broesche eventually filed conversion claims against both Jacobson and TIE (in the form of counterclaims to TIE's interpleader) on the theory that TIE's continued suspense of these funds was illegal because the garnishment action was dismissed and the court's order to continue holding the funds applied only to money TIE had already held, not to future revenues. Broesche moved for partial summary judgment on her conversion claims against Jacobson and TIE on this illegal garnishment theory, and TIE filed its own motion for summary judgment. The trial court granted TIE's motion and denied Broesche's. In issues three through six, Broesche reasserts this illegal garnishment theory and claims the trial court erred in denying her partial summary judgment motion and


The trial court disagreed, and Broesche has not established that the trial court abused its discretion in finding that refiling claims that had been adjudicated, severed, and not appealed was in bad faith and for harassment.
The trial court found Broesche abused the discovery process in conduct relating to her deposition in December 2002. Broesche's deposition was scheduled for December 6, a date she chose, but *276 she failed to appear, claiming to be sick. Broesche's counsel alleges he gave the trial court a doctor's excuse to substantiate the illness, but he has not provided any record citation in support. Broesche's deposition was rescheduled for December 9. Broesche was not prepared to answer questions regarding her damages calculation, and in a hearing after the deposition, the court gave Broeschewhich had been re-set many times, was set for January 6, 2003 with a December 27, 2002 deadline for exchanging draft jury charges and motions in limine. Broesche hired State Representative Joseph M. Nixon as co-counsel on December 23, 2002 and immediately prepared a motion for legislative continuance. Instead of faxing service to opposing counsel, as had been his practice throughout the litigation, Broesche's counsel drove to the airport post office late that evening to mail the motion and service copies. Despite telephone conversations with and personal deliveries to opposing counsel on December 23 and 24, while they were working to meet the court-imposed December 27 deadlines, Broesche's counsel never mentioned that he had hired Nixon or filed a motion for continuance. TIE's and Jacobson's counsel learned this


on December 26, after working on Christmas Eve and Christmas day to meet the deadlines. Nixon never drafted any pleadings and made only one court appearance. The trial court found that Broesche hired Nixon for the purpose of delay and that Broesche's counsel's failure "to timely notify counsel of Mr. Nixon's retention and appearance was intended to cause unnecessary additional litigation fees to TIE and [Jacobson] by allowing them to continue to prepare for trial during the Christmas holidays while [Broesche's counsel] knew he was going to obtain a continuance."
Broesche's counsel has defended his actions, explaining that he hired Nixon because he needed help on the case and that he thought the mailed service would arrive the next day, based on his past experience of mailing from theout over the course of an hour and a half in time, and it's a pretty solid reminder of how good of an actor Depp is, as well as why we're in dire need of another real-time thriller at the movies.

As prolific as Christopher Nolan is, Insomnia continues to be one of his constantly overlooked entries in his canon. With Al Pacino losing his mind, due to Robin Williams' taunts and the fact that he's in Alaska during the time of year where the sun doesn't go down, Nolan weaves his trademark blend of cerebral thrills and chills in his last film before Batman Begins shot him into the stratosphere.

NJ Transit executive director stepping down after rocky period for agency

Steven Santoro will step down as executive director of NJ Transit in April, according to a statement released Thursday by the agency.

Santoro, who's worked at NJ Transit for 18 years, became executive director in October 2016.

During his tenure at the agency, it faced close scrutiny from state lawmakers after a commuter train crashed into Hoboken Terminal in September 2016, killing one person and injuring more than 100 others.

NJ Transit has suffered a drain of experienced managers and front-line employees to retirement and better-paying jobs elsewhere. It was subject to a safety compliance audit by the Federal Railroad Administration that concluded just before the Hoboken crash.

Last month, The Record and NorthJersey.com reported that amid the dysfunction at NJ Transit,Murphy called NJ Transit a "national disgrace."

TOUGH WORDS: Gov.-elect Phil Murphy calls NJ Transit 'national disgrace'

JERSEY ROOTS: Phil Murphy's pick for transportation commissioner has strong NJ roots

In a statement Friday, Transportation Commissioner Richard Hammer said Santoro guided the agency during "a critical time," which included emergency track repairs in New York Penn Station that diverted thousands of NJ Transit riders into Hoboken.

"We are deeply grateful for his stewardship and proud of the many strides we made as an agency during his tenure," Hammer said.

In a statement, Santoro said it had been "an honor" to lead the agency.

"Transit’s mission is vital to the state, and I am proud to have been a part of that, along with


NJ Transit’s hardworking men and women," he said.

"I look forward to ensuring a smooth transition and positioning NJ Transit for future success," he added.

During Christie's eight years as governor, NJ Transit has had five executive directors. Jim Weinstein served the longest, from 2010 to 2014. Ronnie Hakim succeeded him, but then she left the agency in 2015 to work for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.

Dennis Martin served as interim executive director until Santoro's appointment.

By Adam Green | January 27, 2014 at 11:52 pmUPDATED: January 27, 2014 at 11:55 pm

Arizona State defensive tackle Will Sutton is one of the more polarizing players in the NFL Draft pool.

On one hand, he is the reining two-time Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year, a player who regularly commanded double teams, forcing opposing offenses to game plan for him.

On the other hand, he’s someone whose numbers took a significant dip from 2012 to 2013, causing some to wonder if he gained too much weight in the offseason.

Apparently that is still the case, as a trio of ESPN draft analysts concluded that Sutton’s stock took a hit over a week of Senior Bowl practices along with the game itself.

HAVANA (Reuters) - The Rolling Stones rocked a massive crowd at a free, outdoor concert in Havana on Friday, capping a week of engagement with the West for the Communist-led country that once censored the veteran British band's music.

The Stones started their first-ever show in Cuba with "Jumpin' Jack Flash," a song recorded in 1968, when Cuban rock fans were secretly sharing pirated vinyl records and risked being sent to rural work brigades to cure "ideological deviation."

"We know that years back it was hard to hear our music in Cuba, but here we are playing. I also think the timesare changing," lead singer Mick Jagger said in Spanish to a roar from the crowd.

The singer spoke in Spanish throughout of the 18-song show of hits that lasted more than two hours. The band played "Sympathy for the Devil" as a yellow moon rose through clouds, and they finished a two-song encore with "Satisfaction."

Fans started gathering 18 hours ahead of time at Havana's Sports City football and baseball fields, including Cubans who traveled from across the Caribbean's largest island and foreigners who flew in for the occasion.

While no official estimate was immediately available for the crowd size, Cuban state media estimated half a million people could

Jordan drivers held in Iraq freed

Iraqi authorities have released four Jordanian drivers detained in Baghdad for 17 days on suspicion of being fighters opposed to the presence of foreign troops in Iraq, one of the released Jordanians said.

13 May 2005 12:21 GMT

The truck drivers were accused of being fighters

Mohammed Yassin Freiwan, 25, said he and three other drivers had worked for an Iraqi car dealer for two years and never had problems until they were arrested on 25 April when they were looking for a hotel.

"For 17 days, we were questioned continuously by the Iraqi police whether we had anything to do with Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and the insurgency," Freiwan said in Baghdad.

An Iraqi official and Jordanian lawmaker Nariman al-Rossan confirmed the detention of the four drivers, whoa similar case earlier this year. In February, American forces in Iraq released five Jordanian truck drivers who were arrested in December on suspicion of involvement in an attack in Baghdad.

Since the US-led war on Iraq, several Jordanian truck drivers have been looted or held hostage by highway bandits in Iraq, including at least three killed in January.


Washington (AFP) – President Donald Trump will host Russia’s top diplomat Sergei Lavrov for talks at the White House on Wednesday, his highest-level encounter with a Russian official since taking office.

The two men will meet in the Oval Office at 10:30 am (1430 GMT), according to the White House.

The Russian foreign minister, making his first trip to Washington in four years, will also meet his counterpart Rex Tillerson as he seeks US support for Moscow’s plan to establish safe zones in Syria.

The United States was not part of the deal signed by Syrian government backers Russia and Iran, and rebel supporter Turkey, last Thursday in the Kazakh capital Astana.

Washington has given the plan an extremely cautious welcome, citing concerns about Iran’s role as a guarantor.

Clinically it was noted that a very visible and also palpable, doughy swelling was present both in the forehead as well as the hard skull areas. Some hours later, a massive bilateral periocular haematoma appeared. Whilst X-rays were unable to provide any diagnostic help, the sonographic examination of the skull carried out on the same day revealed an extensive subgaleal haematoma. This phenomenon is described in radiological literature as "scalping" and is caused by the use of considerable, blunt violence against the head (shear stresses, e.g. by pulling at the hair).

Golden Globes: 'La La Land' Breaks Record for Most Wins by a Film

The Lionsgate musical, starring Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling, took home seven awards.

La La Land hit all the high notes during the Golden Globes, taking home seven awards — a new record.

The Lionsgate movie-musical beat the previous mark for most Golden Globes won by a single film. Prior to Sunday, that achievement was shared by the 1975 release One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and the 1978 movie Midnight Express, with six wins apiece.

La La Land won in each category for which it was nominated, including best musical/comedy film. Damien Chazelle won the awards for directing and screenplay; Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone took home the awards for best actor and actress, respectively; and composer Justinagency for a primary chief complaint of "shortness of breath"; or a primary chief complaint of "fever" with presence of "difficulty breathing" or "cough".

The DC submitted photographs to substantiate his claim.

“We have also given a right of way to reach the Samadhi through the house of Maulvi Iftikharuddin who was earlier in possession of the temple,” the DC explained.

But the court declared that the efforts put in by the provincial administration were not enough and proposed construction of a new building instead of just erecting boundary walls.

When Justice Dost Mohammad Khan inquired about the cost of the reconstruction work, the DC replied that the cost was estimated at around Rs550,000 but the provincial government had earmarked Rs2 million under the annual development plan.

Mufti Iftikharuddin who appeared before the court submitted an application with a request to make him a party in the case since he was the lawful owner of the property. The house in which he resides belongs to the Evacuee Property Trust but was occupied by his father, late Mufti Chiragh Din in 1950.

On April 16, the apex court had ordered the KP government to restore and rebuild the temple, whose preservation

The spying stand-down comes at an inopportune time, AP reported, citing worries over Western extremists heading to Syria and Iraq to join with the Islamic State, as well as the standoff with Russia over influence on Ukraine and the independence movement in the eastern part of the country. Tensions have grown between the US and its European allies since Edward Snowden's NSA revelations in June 2013.

The US and Germany have especially been at odds after the government whistleblower revealed in October that the NSA had been spying on German Chancellor Angela Merkel's calls since 2002.

Another spying scandal in July escalated the growing political tension between the two


countries. It happened when two potential US agents were unmasked, suspected of acting as double agents within the German state security apparatus, and passing secrets to US intelligence contacts. One of them, a 31-year-old, admitted he contacted the US embassy and offered ‘cooperation,’ after which he leaked hundreds of secret documents in exchange for cash payments. No charges have been filed against the second man, who has denied working for the Americans In response to the espionage scandals, Germany promptly expelled the Berlin CIA chief.

Germany has since admitted tapping former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s calls, as well as those of the United States’ current top diplomat, John Kerry. NATO ally Turkey was also a target of German spying.

Turkey, which is part of the CIA’s European Division, isconsidered a high priority target - an Islamic country that talks to US adversaries such as Iran, while sharing a border with Syria and Iraq. The Eurasian country is also one of the NSA’s top spying objectives, according to leaked Snowden documents. It was not known to what extent the stand-down affected operations in Turkey, AP reported.

It is not the first time the clandestine agency faced blowback from an ally. In 1996, several of its officers were ordered to leave France, after an operation to uncover French positions on world trade talks was unraveled by French authorities because of poor CIA tactics, according to a secret CIA inspector general report, details of which were leaked to reporters.

It’s also not the first time the spy group has halted operations
