SUMMER BREAK @ REDANG ISLAND, MALAYSIA

Blue sea and blue sky, I think this is where summer belongs. It's really quick that summer is gonna end but luckily it was a relaxing summer break for me at Redang Island. So this short getaway to the beach is my second trip during my summer break ( my first trip I went to Taiwan ), and it's really a good place to escape from the busy city and just enjoy nature and summer at its best!

So it was just a 4D3N trip, and also my first time visiting Redang Island. I have Google and research pictures about this place and it was totally like so unrealistic that it was so nice. But landing on the island, it's justfrom a dish! I'm switching all my pets to Royal Canin. It truly helped save Paisley's life.

Wonderful productMy cat came down with pneumonia after suffering from bone marrow suppression as the result of his hyperthyroid medication. He lost interest in food and the only thing I could get him to eat prior to this (after trying at least 10 different foods, including gourmet, grocery store, and other prescription foods) was Fancy Feast, and he would mostly just lick the liquid off that and leave the rest. He wasn't even interested in cooked chicken or canned fish. Recovery was the first food he ate immediately, completely, and independently. Since he is already significantly underweight from hyperthyroidism and has no more weight to


June 23 is the 30th anniversary of the great global warming scare. The scare began in Washington, DC, on this day in 1988 when testimony by a then little-known scientist called James Hansen before the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources caught headlines across the world.14:47h CEST

Real Madrid announced yesterday that Spain coach Julen Lopetegui would be their next coach. The news was a bombshell for the Spanish FA who were told just five minutes before the club made their announcement. The Basque coach had renewed his contract with Spain just three weeks ago, with a deal running to 2020, and a buy-out clause of two million euros. Real Madrid were committed to paying the clause once the World Cup had finished in order to free up the coach to put pen to paper at the Bernabéu.

Real Madrid save Lopetegui buy-out clause

However this morning the Spanish FA president Luis Rubiales took matters into his own hands and fired Lopetegui for the manner in which the coach had carried out his move to Real

Large quantities of drugs were found, including cocaine rocks in Hudson's pocket. A loaded gun was lodged between the cushion and armrest of the chair in which he was sitting.

This case is before us only because of the method of entry into the house. When the police arrived to execute the warrant, they announced their presence, but waited only a short timeperhaps "three to five seconds," App. 15before turning the knob of the unlocked front door and entering Hudson's home.

What happened as the political franchise was extended in the early 19th century? What happened as mass public education was introduced later in the century? What happened as education, healthcare and pensions for the poor were financed by taxation of the incomes of the wealthier? The answer is that social mobility remained at its slow pre-industrial pace. Tracking the status of rare surnames across generations we can measure social mobility rates for wealth and education in England from 1670 to 2012. The descendants of earlier elites only become average after about 10 generations, or 300 years. Status persists as strongly in the Cameron meritocracy as in pre-industrial England. Lineage is destiny. At birth, most of your social outcome is predictable from your family history.

An illustration of the powerof lineage even in modern England comes even from the first names children receive at birth. Naming your daughter Jade means she has one hundredth the chance of attending Oxford as a girl whose parents chose for her Eleanor. Similarly for Bradley versus Peter.

Is this just the survival of sclerotic olde England, where the dead hand of the past exercises an especially powerful grip? No. The modern US has rates of social mobility that are no higher than those of England. Elites and underclasses endure just as strongly as in the UK.

Even more surprising, in the model social democracy of Sweden, social mobility rates again are as slow as in England. Sweden has a class of people descended from its 18th century aristocracy who have distinctive, and legally


surprising even than the immobility of England, the US and Sweden is that of China. In 1949 the Communist revolution drove out, killed, or expropriated the old upper classes. Their descendants were subject to further persecution in the cultural revolution, where those of suspect background were even denied higher education.

Yet surname evidence again shows that the descendants of the pre-revolution elites crop up unexpectedly frequently among high government officials, university professors, and students at elite universities.

Why is social mobility so resistant to change? The reason is the strong transmission within families of the attributes that lead to social success. Given this, government policy can do no more than nibble at the fringes of status persistence.

Marriage is highly assortative in all societies. Even in 19th century England, where womenOur chimney was broken. There were cracks in the walls.”

With the help of earthquake insurance, Messigian rebuilt.

On Sunday, the retired schoolteacher was going over his preparedness kit, making sure he had everything he would need for the next quake. Among the contents: Enough water to last a week, extra shoes and clothes, blankets, flashlights, batteries, food, a cellphone charger and food for the family dog. On top of that, he has an escape route planned and keeps one car parked in the garage and another in the driveway — in case the garage falls down on the car.

The 1994 quake was not the state’s most devastating. The famous 1906 San Francisco earthquake killed 3,000 people. The 1933 earthquake in Long Beach, with a magnitude of 6.4, killed an


estimated 120 people. A 1971 San Fernando quake, centered not far from the Northridge quake, killed 65. The 1989 Loma Prieta quake that struck the Bay Area as the San Francisco Giants played Game 3 of the World Series killed 63.

Kathy Mirescu of Los Angeles said she had been meaning to restock her earthquake safety kit and got a push following the quakes she called the strongest she’s felt since moving to California in 2000.

“The size of those quakes drove home the urgency of making sure we had everything we needed,” she said. The Salesforce product designer spent $250 on everything from camping lanterns, flares and waterproof matches to nonperishable food, iodine tablets for purifying water and freeze-dried food for her dog.

As people prepared, authorities repaired roads andof thousands of smaller aftershocks over the next several days.

The U.S. Geological Survey said there was just a 1% chance of another magnitude 7 or higher earthquake in the next week, and a rising possibility of no magnitude 6 quakes.

You could feel the excitement from early morning. We had been preparing for this day weeks in advance and now it wasfirst-year University of British Columbia science students divided into three treatments, shame, honour and control, consisting of 10 identical six-player games each. To foster indelibility of being shamed and honoured, all six players came from the same class so that the players were acquainted with each other. Players were recruited within the first few weeks of the term to ensure that they would meet again repeatedly during the term.

There was a single group of six players in the room at a time. Players were partitioned off from each other as well as the experimenters, who stayed out of view for the duration of the actual experiment. Each player received a starting account of CDN\$12 and a randomly assigned unique pseudonym (obscure Greek gods). Players were anonymized, both to


the experimenters and other players, but players in the honour and shame treatments wrote real names inside an envelope labelled with their pseudonym, which was collected by the experimenter so the two least generous players (or most generous in the honour treatment) could eventually be identified. The box with the concealed names remained visible to all players at all times to protect their anonymity. All six players could see a public screen on which instructions and the game were projected. Before the game, an experimenter read the instructions, and demonstrated the choices and outcomes in example games using pseudonyms not appearing in the experiment.

Players chose whether to contribute \$1 into a public pool or keep it in his/her private funds at each round for 12 rounds. Without visualcontact with the player, an experimenter passed a locked box into each cubicle, in which every player placed his/her anonymized envelope (blank on the outside; pseudonym on the inside) containing \$0 or \$1. Contributions were recorded on the public screen under each player\'s pseudonym. The group total and player payout were displayed for each round, as was the aggregate total contribution for each player.

After round 10, the experimenter opened the envelopes labelled with the pseudonyms of the two players who donated least overall in the shame treatments to reveal their real names (in the honour treatment it was the two players who donated most). In the event of a tie, the experimenter chose two players by throwing a six-sided die, with the pseudonyms pre-determinedly linked to each number.


Ties occurred in five of the shame games and four of the honour games. Interestingly, ties occurred only for the second least (or most) generous players but never for the least (or most) generous players. In addition, one game in the shame treatment resulted in only one player being exposed because all five other players contributed 100 per cent. The two least generous players went in front of the group and wrote their name on a board under the phrase 'I donated least', which was visible for the entire game (for honour, the phrase was 'I donated most' and the two most generous players went in front). The real names of these two players were also added to the pseudonyms on the public screen. The remaining four envelopesindia

celebrating the news of potentially becoming a parent soon.

Baseball star Jose Fernandez departed from this world before he could attain the joy of welcoming his offspring who was born a few months after his death.

Fernandez's life certainly wasn't straightforward as it was only revealed after he died that he, in fact, was married and divorced, as well as broke off his engagement with his fiance after an affair with then-future mother of his child.

Jose Fernandez Died Aged 24 In 2016

Former Miami Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez was killed in a boating accident in Florida on 25th September 2016. The news was confirmed by the Marlins.

Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred said in a statement:

"All of baseball is shocked and saddened bythe sudden passing of Jose Fernandez. He was one of our great young stars who made a dramatic impact on and off the field since his debut in 2013.

He continued:

"Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, the Miami Marlins organization and all of the people he touched in his life."

Florida Wildlife Commission confirmed to USA Today, Fernandez died as a result of the impact of the crash, not the drowning. The boat in which Jose and two others were travelling in was at significant speed when it struck rocks.

Chief Nyxolyno Cangemi revealed, a Coast Guard crew left the Miami station for a law enforcement patrol. It found the 32-foot boat overturned on a jetty around 3.30 am.

The investigation was later handled by The Florida Fish and Wildlife


Conservation Commission. The three victims were between 24 and 27. Moreover, it was believed alcohol had nothing to do with the crash. Furthermore, no illicit drugs were found at the scene.

Jose Fernandez Broke Off His Engagement To Carla Mendoza Prior To His Death

The Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez broke off his engagement to former cheerleader for Miami Marlins named Carla Mendoza 4 months earlier in April.

The reason for the split was believed to be his affair with Maria Arias. She got pregnant just weeks into their relationship. The baby was expected to be a baby girl. His daughter named Penelope Jo Fernandez was born on 24th February 2017.

A few days prior to his death, Joseposted a photo on Instagram sharing his excitement at the prospect of becoming a father of his girlfriend Arias' child. He wrote:

"I'm so glad you came into my life. I'm ready for where this journey is gonna take us together. #familyfirst"

Fernandez and Mendoza began dating in 2013 and were set to be married before their split. Speaking of their early dating years, Carla's mother said:

"They started talking when they saw one another at the stadium and they started dating."

Mendoza was later fired for violating the regulation that did not allow cheerleaders to date players. Carla's mom further revealed her daughter wanted to get married after she graduated from nursing school in May 2017.

However, Jose claimed his agent did not want him to get married until he got a


new contract in two years. This disagreement over the length of the wait before they take wedding vows caused disputes which led to them departing.

Both Mendoza and his soon to be the mother of his child Arias visited Jose's mother's house in Miami. They arrived mere hours after Fernandez's boat crashed.

One of the friends of the victims later revealed Fernandez was feeling distressed the night he was killed along with two other friends.

Jose Fernandez Was Married To Alejandra Baleato

Jose Fernandez whose death shocked the baseball world was not known to be married until he passed away. The death certificate of the Marlins star revealed he previously married and divorced his high school sweetheart as per TMZ.

I. BACKGROUND

2
The area in contention consists of about 2,000 acres of the Great Cedar Swamp located in southeastern Massachusetts.  Prior to Cumberland's activities, the Great Cedar Swamp was a forested freshwater swamp.  It was then one of the largest freshwater wetlands in Massachusetts.  Freshwater wetlands are ecologically valuable for various reasons.  They act as a natural flood control mechanism by slowing and storing storm water runoff.  They help supply fresh water to recharge groundwater supplies.  They serve as biological filters by purifying water as it flows through the wetlands.  They provide seasonal and year-round habitat for both terrestrial and aquatic wildlife.


permit requirement or for a general nationwide permit.  Cumberland did not, however, apply for an individual permit in 1977 or thereafter, but continued to dredge and fill in the Great Cedar Swamp.  The district court found that from 1978 to 1985 Cumberland converted 674.4 acres of wetland to farmland through the use of dredge and fill.  647 F.Supp. at 1171.

7
In April 1983, a private individual first alerted the Corps to Cumberland's activities.  The Corps then sent a letter to John Peck, Vice President of Operations for Cumberland, noting that discharges of dredge and fill material were apparently being made into waters under the Corps' jurisdiction without the required permit.  The letter stated that no additional work should be performed in the area subject It found the language in the regulation relating to the "unasserted jurisdiction" nationwide permit so opaque as to vitiate any legal culpability on the part of Cumberland during these years.  647 F.Supp. at 1184.  After December 1984 (when the Corps unambiguously asserted jurisdiction), the court believed that Cumberland could not have misunderstood that the nationwide "unasserted jurisdiction" permit did not cover its activities.  The court found that from December 1984 through March 1985, despite the clearly asserted jurisdiction by the Corps, Cumberland continued its further destruction of the Great Cedar Swamp, in direct violation of the Corps' cease and desist order.  The court found that this continued intentional violation of the Clean Water Act warranted a civil monetary penalty.  647 F.Supp. at


62, 88 L.Ed.2d 50 (1985).

B. The Unasserted Jurisdiction Permit

32
Cumberland contends that another nationwide permit--the "unasserted jurisdiction" permit--validated its activities. The district court held that the unasserted jurisdiction permit does not apply to dredge and fill activities regulated under the Clean Water Act, but rather applies only to activities regulated under the River and Harbor Act.  647 F.Supp. at 1180.  Since Cumberland was prosecuted for violating the Clean Water Act, the court found Cumberland's reliance upon the unasserted jurisdiction permit unavailing.

33
While finding this permit did not apply, the court was troubled that the Corps' 1982 regulations pertaining to the permit were ambiguous--so much so, indeed, that an ordinary person might then have believed, in the court's view, that this nationwide permit did validate dredge and fill underthe River and Harbor Act.  In support of its position, the Corps points to language published in the Federal Register when these revised rules were first proposed.  See 45 Fed.Reg. 62,732 (Sept. 19, 1980).  In the preamble to the proposed rules, the Corps stated that it would discuss each of its proposed changes that were significant, but that it would not discuss minor changes such as clarifications, new references or rearrangements.  Id.  The preamble went on to discuss every newly proposed nationwide permit.  Also, whenever the scope of an existing nationwide permit was being expanded, the preamble discussed the extent of the expanded permit.  For example, the preamble discussed an existing nationwide permit for bank stabilization work which originally applied only


was within the Corps' jurisdiction.  The developers did no further work on the projects in reliance upon these letters.  Subsequently, the Corps determined that the area being developed was not in fact covered by the Corps' regulatory authority and that the Corps did not require permits for the developers' activity.  Very shortly thereafter, however, the Corps amended its regulations, expanding its jurisdiction to cover the developers' activities.  The Corps then demanded that the developers obtain a permit pursuant to section 404 of the Clean Water Act.  The Eleventh Circuit held that the two developers would not be required to get a permit because the evidence showed that if the Corps had not erroneously asserted jurisdiction, and if the developers had not ceased theirthe degree of difficulty" as compared with other restoration plans he had worked on.  While none of the prior successful restorations dealt with exactly the same situation, clearly the court had enough evidence before it to evaluate the practicality of this "innovative" approach.

78
Cumberland asserts that it would be inequitable to enforce the order because, according to Cumberland, it will have a detrimental effect on the nearby cranberry bogs and on five houses that were built near the wetland after it was drained and converted to farmland.  The court was well aware of these potential problems, and adequately protected those interests.  The Corps presented testimony concerning the potential detrimental impacts on the cranberry bogs.  The court modified the Corps' proposed plan, altering the locations of


of 1848, namely the freedom of press, the freedom of speech and opinion and democracy.

The author of the letter, Noll, told the Gateway Pundit that “the core achievement of our western constitutions, the Swiss constitution of 1848 as well as the American of 1776 and the French of 1789, is the taming of power by law. And by power I mean brute force. If governments can break the law – fundamental international conventions such as the UN’s Geneva Refugee Convention of 1951 and the European Convention on Human Rights of 1950 – law erodes from inside out to a mere mantle, which is but abused by power as a cloak to muffle its brute face in.”

Tobias Brackey, not a party to this action, was involved in the transaction as he purchased the cattle in Iowa from the plaintiffs and marketed them in Minnesota through the defendant.

New Hampshire Democrats flipped a state House seat in a district that Donald Trump won by 7% in 2016. No Democrat had ever won the district before, and the victory is the first seat in the country at any level to flip from red to blue after the election of Trump.

Democrat Edie DesMarais wins Carroll County seat in Wolfeboro, 811-755, over GOPer Matthew Plache. The victory by Desmaris was a surprise because Trump carried the district by seven points in 2016, and it is a seat that Democrats have never won.

West Nile virus in the Americas.
Since the first detection of West Nile virus in the Western Hemisphere in 1999, the virus has spread rapidly across the North American continent and as far south as Argentina. An unprecedented pattern of large annual epidemics of human neuroinvasive disease continues in North America, resulting in considerable public health impact. The high infection incidence in humans has resulted in non-mosquito transmission modes, such as through transfused blood and transplanted organs. West Nile virus incursion into Latin America and the Caribbean Islands has resulted in surprisingly low human, avian, and equine morbidity and mortality despite evidence that West Nile virus strains circulating in those regions are similar to those in North America.Indian market and beyond. And it has crafted alliances with at least four major pharmaceuticals to do joint research and development.

"We not only survived," says Ella. "We thrived."

It's a case study that breaks several global business molds. For one thing, well-trained Indian professionals traditionally traveled to the West to make their fortunes. For another, India has become a destination -- but mainly for companies outsourcing programming and service jobs.

Bharat, on the other hand, is a home-grown, highly skilled R&D enterprise. What's more, pharmaceutical manufacturing, the main source of the firm's revenue, relies on high-cost equipment, which should level the playing field between an Indian startup and its established Western competitors.

Yet Bharat has succeeded -- in part, because Ella wrote his own rulebook. In addition to the traditional entrepreneurial


hurdles, such as finding investors and hiring staff, Ella had to overcome some classic Indian obstacles: a byzantine and often corrupt bureaucracy, strike-prone labor unions, and government interference.

On arriving in his native country, though, Ella's first problem was money. He had collected a million dollars from friends and colleagues at the Medical University of South Carolina, where he'd taught for a decade. But then the offer of a loan from Indian investors fell through soon after his arrival in India.

As a result, Ella and his wife had to spend the first months convincing banks to loan them money. It didn't help that Ella was a repatriate. "Nobody could understand why someone would come back to India," Ella says. "Everyone's first question was: 'What went wrong in America? Didhealth outfit (and a grantee of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation) established a $6.5 million grant for developing a new rotavirus vaccine in India, with Bharat Biotech as its major development partner. (See the July issue of Technology Review for an article on rotavirus). That vaccine could soon enter stage III clinical trials.

Bharat also grew by developing alliances with larger global pharmaceutical companies -- some of them competitors. A large contract manufacturer, for instance, is negotiating to share a 40,000-square-foot preclinical testing facility on Bharat's main campus.

As Ella's business blossomed, though, he faced a classic Indian problem: how to avoid becoming dependent on local labor unions. His solution was both practical and progressive: "We chose a poor village in three of the poorest states of India and


offered training to their best students, with a promise of at least two years' employment." By avoiding hiring all his workers from the labor pool in Hyderabad, where Bharat is based, Ella lessened the influence of local labor unions.

Today, much of the company's skilled labor force is made up of people who sometimes can support an entire village with their salaries (which are still just a fraction of those earned by U.S. or European employees in the industry).

The biggest problem Ella faced, however, was the notoriously corrupt government bureaucracy. Again, Ella's approach was simple and personal. "It was my experience that 90% of the bureaucrats were just in it for the bribes and 10% were really interested in using their position to help the people and the country,"ten months after its licensure (March-December 2005) was about 11% among targeted adolescents. Non-targeted adolescents (13 and 16 year olds) received a sizeable portion (27%) of the total administered doses. Of the five MCOs, the two largest reported vaccine shortages and had the lowest coverage. The surge in MCV4 uptake during the summer months coupled with the uptake among non-targeted adolescents likely contributed to the vaccine ordering limits and reported shortages. Seasonal uptake patterns of MPSV4 and Td (prior to MCV4 availability) show a similar increase in uptake during the summer, though the month of the peak uptake varied.

Prior to the availability of national coverage data,\[[@B14]\] most vaccination coverage information for adolescents came from cross-sectional or before-and-after studies designed to evaluate the impact of immunization requirements, voluntary school-based


Sheffield kicks off TUSC election year with 7.6 percent by-election vote

The only party workers smiling at the Sheffield council Arbourthorne ward by-election count on Thursday 6 February were the Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition (TUSC) campaigners.

TUSC came from nowhere (not having stood in this ward before) to get 204 votes, 7.6%, coming fourth out of seven candidates, a very respectable result.

Though Labour held the seat with just over half the votes cast, their share of vote fell by 10% from the last council election two years ago. UKIP came second but only increased their share on 2012 by 3%, despite two more years of media hype. With a lower turnout their vote actually fell from 544 in 2012 to 482 this time.

The TUSC candidate was only nine votesUniversity before being awarded Ph.D. degree in 1990 and D.Sc. (Habilitation) in 1997 from the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow, Russia.

He has been a visiting scholar, lecturer and professor at several universities and academic centers, including the University of Cambridge (UK), the University of Tokyo (Japan), Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris (France), the University of Uppsala (Sweden), and the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics in Trieste (Italy).

According to the Energy Information Administrations (EIA), CO2 emissions have managed to decrease each year since 2007, and 2012 had the lowest emissions since 1994.

Apr 11, 2013

Because of the low natural gas prices in early 2012, this sparked the higher use of the gas which is the least carbon-intensive fossil fuel. As a result, CO2 emissions were 3.7 percent lower than they were in 2011, according to the research. Since there was a large decrease in the amount of coal used in 2012, this helped decrease overall emissions for the year.

Milder winters and less demand for transportation also helped contribute to the emissions reduction. EIA published their findings in the Monthly Energy Review in March 2013, but a full emissions report for 2012 will


Shane Blay

Shane Blay is an American guitarist and vocalist that performs primarily metalcore. He has performed with bands such as Oh, Sleeper, Between the Buried and Me, and Wovenwar.

Background
Blay started his musical career in the late 90's/early 2000's, with the band Evelynn. The band released a split EP before hiring on Nick Hipa. Blay knew Hipa since the age of 15. The band was signed to Pluto Records. The band disbanded in 2004 and the members went on their separate ways. Blay alongside Micah Kinard, James Erwin, Lucas Starr, and Ryan Conley formed the band Oh, Sleeper. The band has reached a decent amount of success, but Blay has stated that, contrary to popular belief, the band doesn't make much money. Blay and Kinard are the onlyRoyals stand pat at trade deadline

Stuck in limbo between contending and conceding, the perennially building Kansas City Royals opted to stand pat as baseball's non-waiver trade deadline passed Thursday.

Even as several other teams in the same mix pulled off some splashy moves.

The Tigers, who led the Royals by 4 1/2 games in the AL Central at the start of the day, landed arguably the biggest coup in left-hander David Price. The Mariners and Yankees, neck-and-neck with Kansas City in the wild-card hunt, also were involved in a series of trades.

Meanwhile, Royals general manager Dayton Moore said "at the end of the day, there weren't any players we could get our hands on that would be upgrades over what we have."

"We were prepared to make moves with prospects. There


was nothing presented to us that made us uncomfortable," Moore said shortly before the Royals wrapped up a series with Minnesota. "We were prepared to be as aggressive as we possibly could."

The Royals were in a similar position a year ago, making only minor moves down the stretch, and wound up finishing 86-76 – their best record since the strike-shortened 1994 season, but still only good enough for third place in the division. That led many to speculate that the Royals would finally trade for the big bat that their popgun offense has been lacking the past two seasons.

Instead, the Royals watched from the dugout as Oakland sent power-hitting outfielder Yoenis Cespedes to the Red Sox for starter Jon Lester and outfielder Jonny Gomes.

We summarize the evidence as follows: On the day the plaintiff was injured, October 15, 1956, he was employed by DeMatteo which, as general contractor, was building a bridge for the Southeast Expressway in the vicinity of the Neponset Circle. One of the operations in building the walls of the bridge was to pour concrete from a bucket raised by a crane. The plaintiff's job was to tell the crane operator where to "spot" these buckets and "to open ... [them] so the concrete would empty into a hopper ... along the wall." DeMatteo's own cranes had been used "many times" for this work. DeMatteo's superintendent was in charge of the job and was the plaintiff's immediate supervisor.

John Moore/Getty Images(TUCSON) -- U.S. Border Patrol agents caught in a violent December standoff with illegal immigrants in Arizona fired the first shots, but with bean bags not bullets newly obtained records show.

At least one of the suspected bandits armed with AK-47 assault rifles returned fire, hitting Agent Brian Terry, who later died.

"When the suspected aliens did not drop their weapons, two Border Patrol agents deployed 'less than lethal' bean bags at the suspected aliens," FBI search warrant requests say according to the Arizona Daily Star newspaper, which first obtained the documents. The ammunition is designed to wound and take down targets not kill them.

"At this time, at least one of the suspected aliens fired at the Border Patrol agents. Two Border Patrol agents returned fire, one withBOSTON – Friday, May 31, 2013—The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) is beginning the roadway design work on one of the alternatives that was under review as part of the I-91 Interchange 19 Study in Northampton, MA. The alternative, referred to as Alternative 13A, includes a roundabout at the I-91 northbound exit ramp / Damon Road / Route 9 intersection. It also includes improvements at the I-91 southbound entrance intersection. These improvements include ramp widening, signal modifications and adding an additional left turn lane on Route 9 onto I-91 southbound. On Route 9, the additional left turn lane will extend under the I-91 overpass bridge, and the sidewalk on the north side of the roadway will be relocated behind the piers. Opportunities for additional traffic calming will also


be considered for inclusion in the final design.

The study, which began in 2009, set out to find ways to improve mobility in the I-91 Exit 19 area. The entire project includes traffic analysis, roadway design, environmental analysis, and a significant effort to seek community input. There have been over 11 meetings with a Project Advisory Committee (PAC) and two public meetings since the inception of the project. The PAC, composed of neighborhood, City, and regional representatives has been instrumental in guiding the project and offering input on the various alternatives that were being considered. The PAC encouraged additional work in the design development to address bicycle and pedestrian accommodation. A majority of PAC members have voiced their support of Alternative 13A.

When the study began in 2009, there were12 alternatives under consideration, including alternatives for a full interchange at Exit 19 as recommended in the 2004 Connecticut River Crossing Transportation Study. The Connecticut River Crossing Transportation Study was initiated by MassDOT (formerly MassHighway) to develop a more comprehensive program of regional solutions to transportation congestion and safety problems in the area. After bringing all options to the PAC and public and conducting a traffic and environmental analysis, the study team narrowed the options to six alternatives – a No Build Alternative, four build alternatives, and one Transportation Demand Management (TDM) package alternative. The TDM alternative was intended to reduce congestion by reducing vehicular traffic volume. Elements of the TDM alternative included more frequent bus services, improved connection to the Norwottuck Rail Trail, Transit Signal Priority, and

Leni says that she will seclude herself in Franz's room, and that she will see only their servant, Hilda. When the seventh minute is reached, she presses the button of the tape recorder, then ascends the stairs and enters the room as it begins to play.

Illustrations of Sartre's philosophy

Throughout the play, Sartre characteristically colors the text of the plot with his philosophic concepts, especially the notions of responsibility and freedom and the contrast between bad faith and authenticity. Some of these comments serve a functional or descriptive role in the plot while simultaneously carrying a philosophic aside. Others are closerless." "...I forbid [Franz] to plead my cause. I have only one judge - myself - and I acquit myself. Oh, witness for the defense, testify before yourself. You will be invulnerable if you dare to state: "I have done what I wanted, and I want what I have done."

Later, Franz describes Johanna's beauty as a nothingness to his crabs:  Franz's words imply that the crabs cannot see a nothingness, a term Sartre uses to describe value- and structure-/role- judgments which are not inherent to an object's being, but rather given to them by consciousness.

Another conversation depicts Sartre's "Man is a useless passion":  "Franz (ironic admiration): [A] Star! And you didn't succeed? What did you want?" Johanna: "What does one want? Everything." F (slowly): "Everything, yes.


Board of Supervisors, only by another ballot initiative.) Proposition L would set up a stricter system of artist regulations, registration, and inspection. It would also give the Board of Supervisors power to regulate selling locations.

State Senator George Moscone, at the time a candidate for mayor, sided with the street artists in opposing Proposition L. He stated, "The attempts to harass them off the streets of our city and to circumvent the will of the people as expressed through their approval of Proposition J are, to me, terribly wasteful". Moscone would later become mayor and demonstrate a very supportive position for the Street Artists Program.

Ron Wyden insists he doesn’t have a grudge against fellow Democrat Dianne Feinstein of California. What he does have, though, is a hold on her two legislative priorities of the lame-duck session — and he has, in fact, placed a hold on every major bill coming out of her Intelligence Committee in the past two years.

Wyden’s moves to block the two latest bills — a spy agency reauthorization measure (S 3454) aimed at cracking down on leaks and an extension of expiring surveillance provisions from a 2008 law — are the newest demonstrations of how the Oregon Democrat has become the Senate’s hardest line to cross on civil liberties issues in the national security arena.

Wyden said he considers Feinstein a friend and that he has more in


party’s leadership and President Barack Obama. He has been among a small handful of Democratic senators seeking the Obama administration’s legal justification for the targeted killing of U.S. citizens suspected of being overseas terrorists, requests he said have gone unfulfilled.

But sometimes, his approach nets gains: His decision to block an earlier intelligence authorization bill over provisions aimed at cracking down on leaks resulted in the panel stripping the language so that it could advance on the Senate floor.

He also led the successful fight against a Senate anti-piracy measure that he said would impinge on free speech. Initially, the bill had broad Senate support, but later it was stalled by a grass-roots opposition campaign that saw numerous senators pull their backing.

Although the pair finished last in their two-woman bobsleigh heats, losing out on the chance of racing for a medal in this afternoon’s final, they won the honour of becoming the first athletes from an African nation to compete in a bobsleigh event.

Their inspirational journey has touched many sports fans, predictably drawing comparisons to the 1993 film Cool Runnings, which told the story of Jamaica’s first-ever bobsleigh team.

The Nigerian team was founded less than two years ago by US-born Adigun, who represented Nigeria in the 100m hurdles at the 2012 London Games.

After watching the 2014 Sochi Winter Games, “I kind of had Olympic fever again”, Adigun told CBC. “I knew quite a


few track and field athletes who had transitioned into the winter sports, so I figured, ‘You know, I think I could try this’.”

After learning how to drive a bobsled, Adigun recruited fellow Nigerian-Americans Ngozi Onwumere and Akuoma Omeoga - both also former sprinters - as brakemen for Nigeria’s first-ever bobsleigh team.

As well as their lack of previous Olympic experience, the squad have had to overcome financial and logistical hurdles.

Only Adigun, who previously trained with the US bobsleigh squad, has raced on ice before, and until recently the team trained on a wooden sled that Adigun built herself.

A crowdfunding campaign raised $75,000 (£54,000) to help the team buy an Olympic-level machine in time for the PyeongChang Games.

The bobsleigh team make up three-quarters of Nigeria’s first ever Winter Olympics delegation.

Thefourth and final member, Simidele Adeagbo, raced in the skeleton event on Friday and Saturday.

Although she finished last in both heats, Adeago - who only took up the skeleton last year - was just milliseconds behind her nearest rivals.

The 36-year-old, who is based in South Africa, said that she was overwhelmed by the support she had received in PyeongChang.

“People just want to be a part of my story,” she told the Johannesburg-based Mail and Guardian. “When they see me in my Nigerian jacket, people from all over want to stop and take pictures.”

Judging by the reception the squad received on Twitter, Team Nigeria can now count fans all over the world:

Nigeria makes its


Phantoms lose by largest margin this season

(Emily Paine)

Of The Morning Call

Find out how the Lehigh Valley Phantoms fared against the first-place Hershey Bears

The Hershey Bears turned the PPL Center into Bleak House on a dreary Wednesday night by scoring three power-play goals and another short-handed as Lehigh Valley Phantoms allowed the most goals they've given up all season, home or on the road.

The disappointing 7-2 loss to the Bears in front of 7,433 fans saw the Phantoms take a hit in the AHL's Eastern Conference standings while suffering their largest margin of defeat this season.

"We came out with nothing," Phantoms alternate captain Andrew Gordon said. "We came out with no effort at all. … We came out flat. We didn't work. I don't think a single guy canreally look at himself in the mirror and say they worked as hard as they can to try and win the game tonight."

Things started well for the Phantoms (19-15-4-1), who lost at home in regulation for just the fourth time this season. Petr Straka scored 3:15 into the game, but that was the extent of the momentum.

"They took their game to another level," Phantoms third-year head coach Terry Murray said of the Bears. "We became undisciplined, took penalties. We had poor execution from that point on."

It certainly wasn't the way the Phantoms expected to start the second half of the season, with playoff position well within reach.

First place in the East Division was there for the taking before a 5-2 loss at Hershey on Sunday that would have


put the Phantoms into a tie for first with the Bears.

Instead, Hershey made the most of the home-and-home series, defeating the Phantoms in the PPL Center for the first time in three games to take a 4-3 lead in the 12-game season series with wins in the last three.

The Phantoms entered the game in third place in the division, 11th overall in the Eastern Conference, and were four points behind the division-leading Bears, just one point behind second-place Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.

Murray pointed out how close the teams were just two games ago.

"We've got to recognize the opportunity," he said. "We fumbled the ball big time tonight."

"We made our own bed," Phantoms' forward Brett Hextall said. "They're not much better than us. We gave everything to them. Our discipline I don'tthink can get any worse than it was. We completely got off our mind-set. We lost focus and that's what happens."

To make the penalty matters worse, Jay Rosehill received his seventh 10-minute misconduct of the season in the second period. Ryan White received one seven seconds into the final period, and alternate captain Zach Stortini received another midway through the third as the Phantoms increased their AHL-high misconduct total to 18 (Hershey is tied for second with 12).

Straka joked earlier in the week about his new sticks, and then scored on his very first shot to put the Phantoms on top 1-0 just 3:15 into the action with a power-play goal.

Straka tallied goal No. 9 on the season by swiping in the rebound of Hextall's shot on Philipp


Grubauer from the right corner after Hershey's Tim Kennedy, playing in his 300th career AHL game, went to the penalty box for high sticking.

The lead didn't last long, however, as Hershey scored on three of its next five shots. Casey Williams tied it up at 10:21 off an odd-man rush at the end of a Phantoms power play for his 13th goal of the season.

Hershey continued to look crisp throughout the rest of the evening, cycling the puck almost at will and launching forwards on breakaways.

Stan Galiev put the Bears ahead on his team-leading 14th goal with a power-play goal on a shot from the right circle with 7:44 left in the first period, and Jim O'Brien scored on a short-handed breakaway with 5:20 left in the period.Starting goalie Martin Ouellette, the call-up from Reading who had looked so good in his brief Lehigh Valley appearances, gave up three goals on seven shots and was pulled in favor of fellow rookie Anthony Stolarz, who celebrated his 21st birthday on Tuesday.

Hershey finished 3-for-7 on the power play and the Phantoms were 2-for-11.

The rivalry started heating up at the end of the first period when Phantoms AHL All-Star defenseman Brandon Manning took exception to a crosscheck in the back along the boards from defenseman Steven Oleksy with 31.4 seconds left.

Defenseman Brett Flemming went after Hershey defenseman Erik Burgdoerfer, who had grabbed Nick Cousins' stick to prevent a shot in close on a delayed tripping call against Cameron Schilling with 14 seconds left in the period.

India's mission to Mars, launched last week, has hit its first problem. Last night, the satellite was not able to raise its orbit to the required 100,000 km.The Indian Space and Research Organisation or ISRO says the satellite is "healthy" and another attempt to push it higher will be held early tomorrow morning.Instead of flying directly to Mars, the 1350-kg vehicle is scheduled to orbit Earth for nearly a month, building up the speed to "slingshot" its way out of the earth's gravitational pull to embark on its 780-million-kilometre journey.ISRO staged a flawless launch last Tuesday of its Mars-bound spacecraft, loaded with a camera, an imaging spectrometer and a methane sensor to probe for life on the Red Planet.ISRO Chairman K Radhakrishnan told NDTV today, "The space craftis healthy and it encountered a problem when a specific redundancy test was being conducted and it failed to reach the desired velocity it was to achieve." A failure analysis committee will examine why this problem happened, he said, but added that crucially, not much fuel was wasted in the failed attempt.The 450-crore mission to Mars, India's first attempt at inter-planetary travel, has made international headlines, at least in part for its cost-efficiency.

More than 100 women were elected to United States legislative office in mid-term elections Tuesday. A record number will serve in the new Congress.

The results came almost two years after women marched in Washington and cities across the country to oppose the inauguration of President Donald Trump.

The Associated Press reported that a record 237 women ran for the House of Representatives this year. As of Wednesday, at least 100 won their House races, easily beating the old record of 84.

The number of female winners is expected to grow, as results had not been called for more than ten races with women candidates.

Most of the women who won were Democrats who helped the party capture a majority in the House.

Christopher Borick is director of the Muhlenberg College Institute ofPublic Opinion. He says the role women played in this election lived up to expectations.

Borick said, "We are seeing a vast increase in the percentage of women that will be within the House of Representatives. I'll give you an example in Pennsylvania, which is kind of, one of the most striking scenes. Before this election we had zero, not one member of an 18-seat congressional delegation that was a woman. Tonight, just in suburban Philadelphia, in the Lehigh Valley where I'm speaking from, four women won in a really tight area."

Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Rashida Tlaib from Michigan became the first two Muslim women to win election to Congress. Other winners Tuesday included Sharice Davids from Kansas, one of the first two Native American woman elected to


Congress, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, the youngest woman ever elected to Congress.

New York Democratic Congressional candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez speaks to supporters, Tuesday, Nov. 6, 2018 in Queens, New York, after defeating Republican challenger Anthony Pappas in the race for the 14th Congressional district.

Texas is set to send its first Hispanic women to Congress, as Democrats Veronica Escobar and Sylvia Garcia both won their races.

Ayanna Pressley became the first black woman elected to Congress from Massachusetts. She talked about the historic nature of the election.

Pressley said, “Now, listen, I know for a fact none of us ran to make history, we ran to make change. However, the historical significance of this evening is not lost on me.”

There was also an historic gender gap that showed women moresupportive of Democrats than Republicans.

VoteCast reported that more women voted for Democratic candidates than men. About 6 in 10 voted for the Democrat in the race, compared with 4 in 10 for the Republican candidate. Men were more evenly divided in their vote.

Another record in the Senate

Women also reached a record number in the United States Senate. The Associated Press reported 24 women were set to serve in the Senate starting in January, one more than before.

The decisive record-breaker came from the Republican Party. U.S. Representative Marsha Blackburn defeated the state’s former Governor, Democrat

MUMBAI: The woman tantric and healer, who had accused television actor Karan Oberoi of rape, was arrested by Oshiwara police on Monday.The woman is accused of filing a false complaint against Oberoi and orchestrating an attack on herself on May 25 when she was taking a morning walk.In the purported attack, two men on a bike had slashed the woman with a paper cutter, threatened to throw acid on her and left a paper chit which read "take back the case".On May 27, the police nabbed the youths involved in the attack, with one of them revealing that it was a pre-planned conspiracy.One of the men, who is the cousin of the woman's lawyer, said that he was paid Rs 10,000 to carry out the attack.The lawyer,


who surrendered to the cops, confessed that the woman had hired his cousin for the attack.However, the woman refuted the allegations and said that she has written to the commissioner and the Oshiwara police claiming innocence. She also accused her lawyer of framing her.raised the filament to touch the foot and progressively increased the force applied until it reached a maximum of 20 g. The force at which the foot was withdrawn was recorded with the software supplied by the manufacturer. Testing was performed once per day until the end of the experiment. Nociception of rats was measured by the paw pressure threshold using analgesy meter (AM) (Ugo Bastille, Monvalle VA, Italy) which applies a linearly increasing mechanical force to the dorsum of the rat's hind paw. The nociceptive threshold was defined as the force in grams at which the rat withdrew its paw. Basically, the method is similar to one described by Randall and Selitto \[[@CR46]\]. Continuously increasing pressure was applied to the dorsal surface of the hind paws. The


FEASTERVILLE, Pa. -- Authorities returned Saturday to the Pennsylvania home where a man was living with a dozen girls, including one whose parents said they gave her to him because he helped them financially.

Officials in Bucks County, near Philadelphia, were acting on a tip Thursday when they found 51-year-old Lee Kaplan at his Feasterville home, along with 12 girls ranging in age from six months to 18 years.

The oldest girl told police that she and Kaplan have three-year-old and six-month-old children. Kaplan faces charges including statutory sexual assault, unlawful contact with a minor and aggravated indecent assault.

Neighbor Jen Betz has been hailed as a hero for trusting the odd feeling she had about the house and calling a child welfare hotline,teenager's parents told police the other nine girls in the house were their children, but no birth certificates or Social Security cards could be located to confirm that, he said.

"They haven't had a chance to talk with the children yet. And I am sure they want to find out were they abused, weren't they abused," Hoopes told KYW.

He told the station there were air mattresses, musical instruments and "tens of thousands of dollars of trains set up" in the basement, adding that the children may have been home-schooled.

The children are now together in protective custody, according to Heckler.

Authorities allege in an affidavit that the girl's father, Daniel Stoltzfus, told an officer he gave his 14-year-old daughter to Kaplan after researching the legality of such an action online. Stoltzfus

The fourth episode, “The Happiness of All Mankind” — named so for a banner that hung off a building in an evacuated village, spotted by soldiers tasked with killing the radiated dogs and cats abandoned by their owners — brings forth the irony that runs throughout Chernobyl. While the Soviet state continued to say the situation was better than the reality, “liquidators” were shooting dogs and killing plants so no one would accidentally eat them


comes off favorably. What was he like in history?

Tarakanov is a fascinating character — as a child, he watched his village burned to the ground by the Nazis, lied about his age to join the army, and subsequently wrote two of the Soviet armed forces’ textbooks on planned remediation in the aftermath of nuclear war.

I interviewed him at length, but only after a great struggle. He is almost a parody of a retired Soviet general: brash, egotistical, threatening. After agreeing to meet me, he waited until I had come to his office, upstairs from a travel agents’ in a crumbling building in Moscow, and sat down over tea before telling me that he wouldn’t talk unless I signed a contract and paid him.

The changes follow concerns that teams were using their five days of private testing to gain a set-up advantage for a circuit ahead of the race weekend, rather than for pure bike development. Testing will also be banned during the summer break next season.

The decision to drop one of the official pre-season tests for 2019 is mainly in response to the growing number of races; Thailand is joining the calendar in 2018 and Finland in 2019, with others also showing interest.

The 2018 pre-season test line-up is Sepang, Buriram and Losail. Buriram has replaced Phillip Island in order to gather data (especially tyre data)


was that because the cat had hurt her she could not show any sympathy for him; she couldn't show sympathy for me on the matter as that would be giving my cat sympathy indirectly. According to her logic, showing sympathy towards someone who had not made right the wrongs they had done to her would excuse all the harm done to her.
She was upset with my father for something he had said once, so I asked her... would she show sympathy for me if my father died? Her answer was "No."
I could only conclude that the pain and suffering inflicted upon her when she was young had made her extremely defensive. It had compromised her ability to trust and empathize as demonstrated by her refusal to associate withopportunity to explore science and technology.

Critics on the Left, including labor unions, environmentalist groups, and others, argued the deal would benefit corporations at the expense of American workers and the economy.

The Missing Picture: Surviving the Khmer Rouge, With Puppets

A friend of mine, who's in his fifties, is getting an MFA in nonfiction writing. Many of the other students in his program are in their twenties, and most have no interest in writing any kind of nonfiction other than memoir. Everyone, it seems, has a story to tell, and more than that, a belief that the greater world is interested in that story, even when it's being told by a person who has barely lived.

The gentle urgency of Panh's story is right there in the filmmaking. This is a story that had to be told.

In that context, The Missing Picture, a disarmingly subtle documentary-memoir hybrid by Cambodian-born director Rithy Panh, comes off as a work of extreme humility. Panhdoes have a story to tell: In 1975, when he was 13 years old and living a normal life with his family in Phnom Penh, the Khmer Rouge, under the leadership of Pol Pot, invaded the city and drove its inhabitants into the countryside, decreeing that they leave everything, including family photographs and mementos, behind. There, they were forced to work as field laborers; the goal was to create a pure, agrarian-based Communist society. Anyone with too much education — any education — was considered untrustworthy. Eyeglasses, seen as a symbol of learning, were forbidden among the masses. Perceived enemies of the state were tortured and executed. Children were encouraged to inform against their parents. Workers of all ages were subject to inhumane conditions, and when famine struck,


people died by the thousands.

Panh escaped to Thailand in 1979, eventually settling in Paris to make documentary films, but the rest of his family did not survive. With The Missing Picture, he tells the story of his childhood before and during the Khmer Rouge occupation, but here's the clincher: Because so little documentary footage of the period exists, Panh tells his story mostly through the use of carved clay figures that represent himself, his family, and his fellow citizens.

Details

Using dolls to tell the story of genocide may sound tragically misguided. I went into the film cold at Cannes last year, and once it began and I realized what I was in for, I dolefully began counting the number of people I'd have to climb over to reach theexit. But I stayed, and found myself captivated: The Missing Picture, which won the festival's Un Certain Regard prize and was a nominee for Best Foreign Language Film at this year's Oscars, is unlike anything I've ever seen, a strange and beautiful work that comes off as both haunted and charmed. The horror of Panh's boyhood past is real, but the poetry he makes from it is just as tangible.

In their startling innocence, the dioramas Panh has created — of riotous, colorful pre-1975 family get-togethers, of gaunt workers toiling in the fields, of soldiers executing blindfolded prisoners — resemble children's playthings, though they also have a talismanic power. Because Panh has no photographic remembrances of his family, these displays serve as handcrafted home movies: They're motionless, but not


reminder of the inner self he refuses to relinquish. "To hang on," he says, "you must hide within yourself a strength, a memory, an idea no one can take from you. For if a picture can be stolen, a thought can't."

The historical footage Panh weaves into his story is spare and carefully chosen, including bits from Khmer Rouge propaganda films, revealing in their very stiffness, and snippets of better days, like the clip showing Cambodian teenagers of the '60s twisting and shouting to a cover of Wilson Pickett's "In the Midnight Hour" performed in their native tongue. The language may sound strange to English-speakers, but the music and the movement of the dancers tell us all we need to know about youth and freedom. In another sequence, agroup of clay figures gaze, rapt, at a dancer in a golden costume, another relic of a happier time. She's real, destined to live forever in a film clip; the figures, frozen in their joy, are just clay ghosts. Or are they? The Missing Picture is so immediate, so vital, it practically breathes. Not all memoirs need to exist. But the gentle urgency of Panh's story is right there in the filmmaking. This is a story that had to be told. Even in its stillness, it moves.

vehicles used in the mining industry.
Also, detachment of the tyre from the rim of the wheel requires breaking the beads of the tyre for release of the tyre from the rim. The breaking of the bead is accomplished by inserting an end of a bead breaker between the tyre and the rim of the vehicle. This procedure may require application of a force of relatively large magnitude to insert the bead breaker between the tyre and the rim.
Also, tyre handling apparatus on occasions may need to operate in confined spaces such as an underground mine or tunnel.
It is against this background that the invention has been developedhave pre-accident "chronic pain syndrome." Finkelman at 41.[3] Finkelman repeatedly stated that Hoskins had preexisting carpal tunnel syndrome that the accident "lit up." Finkelman at 13. Wohns testified that Hoskins was not experiencing pain before the accident. Both Finkelman and Wohns recommended "[c]ervical fusion surgery" for Hoskins's neck area. Finkelman at 21.
¶ 11 Dr. Robert Colfelt, a defense expert, stated that he consulted, among other things, Rody's records, including pre-accident reports and the 1998 x-ray, and Finkelman's and Wohns's records and deposition testimony, to use as a basis for his opinion that Hoskins's accident injuries had resolved by August 2001, and that treatment after that date was not related to those injuries. Colfelt also testified that any future work loss would not be related to the accident and

¶ 19 Harris was rear-ended by Drake in April 1996. The next day, Harris sought emergency treatment for pain and inflammation. Harris v. Drake, 116 Wash.App. 261, 265, 65 P.3d 350 (2003). Over the next 20 months, Harris had problems with his left shoulder. After undergoing surgery in late 1997, based on a diagnosis of "anterior impingement syndrome," and completing post-surgical therapy in December 1997, he sued Drake in May 1998. Harris, 116 Wash.App. at 266, 65 P.3d 350.
¶ 20 Drake admitted liability and, over Harris's relevance objection, attempted to present evidence of Harris's pre-accident chiropractic pain complaint in February 1995, some 14 months before the accident. The trial court sustained Harris's relevance objection andruled such evidence inadmissible. Harris, 116 Wash.App. at 268, 289, 65 P.3d 350. Although Drake presented other evidence that Harris had a bony prominence in his shoulder and that his job as a painter made him susceptible to impingements, there was no evidence of a symptomatic condition at the time of the accident. Harris, 116 Wash.App. at 288-90, 65 P.3d 350. At the conclusion of the evidence, the trial court granted Harris's motion for a directed verdict on causation.

We agree with the trial court's ruling. When an accident lights up and makes active a preexisting condition that was dormant and asymptomatic immediately prior to the accident, the preexisting condition is not a proximate cause of the resulting damages.
