Biafra’s decision to cancel the Tel Aviv gig is the right one, but he still seems under the impression that the boycott is a fringe movement that he has the right to ignore.

Michigan has its captains for the 2016 season: defensive lineman Chris Wormley and tight end Jake Butt.

The captains are voted on by the players at the end of camp and Wormley made the announcement on Twitter tonight, just after 10 p.m.

Butt said it was the "highest honor I have received (and probably ever will receive) in my life."

U-M confirmed it on the football program's Twitter account later this evening that the two Ohio natives will be the captains.

"I've been on some very good teams in different sports I played and I've been on some very bad teams," Butt said at Big Ten media days. "The good teams have always had good leadership and the bad teams have always had bad leadership. That seems to be

He was already named an All-America on a number of lists last year after 51 catches for 654 yards and three touchdowns.

Butt is the first tight end to be captain since Kevin Koger in 2011 and Wormley the first defensive lineman since Mike Martin, also in 2011.

I stood up to demand that the President of the United States follow the constitution and come to Congress if he wanted to commit the United States to military action in Libya.

It was clear to me at the time that the situation was fraught with peril. It was clear to me at the time that the President did not understand the potential consequences of his actions, both in terms of the war itself in Libya, and in terms of the damage he was doing to the separation of powers in our government.

used President Obama’s own words from 2007 to describe exactly what should happen and why it was important. I remembered them from back then because it was one of the things I liked about candidate Obama: a reluctance for war and a seeming respect for the powers of Congress to declare War.

In 2007 President Obama said, “The President does not have power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to the nation.”

As Commander-in-Chief, the President does have a duty to protect and defend the United States. In instances of self-defense, the President would be within his constitutional authority to act before advising Congress or seeking its consent. History has shown us time andarea where ISIS controls one-third of the country. The failure wasn’t simply in not planning ahead, but in naively believing we could topple a secular dictator and replace him with a Jeffersonian Democracy.

My point to the President is the same now as it was in 2011: your mistake was in not coming to Congress.

Congressional debate is a check and balance that hopefully prevents rash and ill-thought out war. There is a reason why the power to declare war is constitutionally that of the legislative branch and not the executive. It was deliberate and deliberated by our founding fathers.

As Madison said, “The constitution supposes, what the History of all Governments demonstrates, that the Executive is the branch of power most interested in war, and most prone to it. It


Its director was a world war one hero, the Royal Navy lent ships to re-create its stirring scenes – and even the Germans liked it. Now, a 1927 silent epic of naval warfare is being rereleased

One hundred years ago, 7,500 miles from London, the British Empire took a bruising knock. Off the coast of Chile near Coronel, on 1 November 1914, squadrons from the German and British navies exchanged fire. The British were hopelessly outgunned and two ships, HMS Monmouth and HMS Good Hope, were lost, along with all the souls – nearly 1,600 – on board. It was Britain’s first naval defeat in more than a century of much-touted supremacy over the waves.

In response, the Royal Navy fitted out two more battle cruisers, HMS Inflexible and HMSInvincible, and sent them steaming down to the South Atlantic to regain ground. A month later, the German Vice-Admiral Von Spee, who had given the order to sink the Monmouth at Coronel, faced another standoff, not far from the Falkland Islands, but this time, as the best war stories say, the British were ready for the enemy…

These two battles are not the best known in the annals of the first world war, and the film that documents them, made 13 years later, in peacetime, has barely been seen since its release. But The Battles of Coronel and Falkland Islands (1927), directed by Walter Summers, may well be the greatest British war film you’ve never heard of. Made just at the end of the silent era, Battles changed the


way that war films were made, and appreciated, in the UK. Now it is being rereleased by the BFI to commemorate the start of the first world war – a chance for modern moviegoers to relish a neglected classic of British silent cinema.

In Summers’s hands, these twinned battles become not a revenge story, but a hymn to Navy values under pressure. As an opening title card sets out, this is the tale of “a victory, and a defeat as glorious as a victory”. In fact, it’s Von Spee, rather the British captains, who makes a play for the audience’s sympathy – he’s a marked man, doomed to follow his orders until the death.

Hollywood had been releasing first world war movies for a while by the time Battles wasmade: bombastic, slick fictions epitomised by blockbusters such as The Big Parade and Wings. “British audiences used to laugh at American war films,” explains Dr Lawrence Napper of King’s College London, author of a forthcoming book on British film and the first world war. “They were just so unrealistic. It wasn’t details, such as that the uniforms were inaccurate. They would have American troops fighting in battles that they had never been anywhere near.”

British film-makers were more reticent to transform their recent history into a spectacle. The war was closer to home for UK audiences, so British war films were aimed at veterans, a sober way to remember losses and record who did what where. “The previous mode of war films was maps and diagrams and then in


first world war. He fought at Ypres and the Somme, rose to the rank of Lieutenant and earned a Military Cross. A fellow soldier in the 9th East Surrey Regiment described him as “an outstandingly brave fellow. He loved to crawl about No Man’s Land and scare the enemy.” Although he returned to the film business after the war, and directed nearly 40 films, many of them on military subjects, he yearned to fight again, and tried to re-enlist more than once. Summers gained a reputation for his powerful battle scenes: his passion for service was translated into thrilling cinema. “He knew what it was like out there,” says Dixon. “And that shows in the way that the film is shot.”

“I’ve been wondering whether Summers was musical,” saysSimon Dobson, who has composed the score for the new restoration. “The fight scenes could have been edited to a tempo, I didn’t have to write any complicated rhythms around the gun shots.” There is a compelling rhythm to the battle scenes, and a terrific amount of gunfire. At the film’s premiere, in the New Gallery Cinema on Regent Street, London, special effects were used to emphasise the shots – leading to complaints about the noise from the shop next door. Dobson’s score has to provide the sound for a film that was clearly designed to be played loud. But even Dobson, who describes himself as a “noisy, dark composer”, was alarmed when one of the players, a Royal Marine no less, passed out, exhausted, during the recording

On the evening of February 24, 1942, air raid sirens went off throughout Los Angeles County. A total blackout was ordered and air raid wardens were summoned to position. At 3:16 a.m., the 37th Coast Artillery Brigade began firing 12.8-pound anti-aircraft shells at a reported unidentified aircraft. Pilots of the 4th Interceptor Command were alerted but stayed grounded. Artillery fire continued until the 4:14 a.m., over 1,400 shells fired. An “all clear” was sounded and a blackout order lifted at 7:21 a.m. Three civilians were killed, another three died of heart attacks, several buildings were damaged. Initially, the target of the aerial barrage was thought to be an attacking force from Japan, but speaking at a press conference


shortly afterward, Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox called the incident a “false alarm.” Newspapers of the time published a number of sensational reports and speculations of a cover-up. Some modern-day UFOlogists have suggested the targets were extraterrestrial spacecraft. When documenting the incident in 1983, the U.S. Office of Air Force History attributed the event to a case of “war nerves” likely triggered by a lost weather balloon and exacerbated by stray flares and shell bursts from adjoining batteries.

Brown is retiring from all soccer to take up an opportunity to study for a masters in management at either the London School of Economics or Cambridge University.

"It was an emotional decision to make, but an exciting one for me," said Brown.

"The opportunity to continue my studies at either of those places is fantastic.

"It was tough making the decision to leave what has been a dream job but I believe it is the right time for me."

to the Titans, two picks before the Browns selected quarterback Brandon Weeden.

The Browns took plenty of heat for not selecting a wideout until the fourth round, when they took Miami's Travis Benjamin.

Many teams, including the Cowboys and Bills, will attend the workout, which will be held at the Texans' indoor facility.

But Gordon, whom nfldraftscout.com describes as "a long-striding runner with the build-up speed and fluidity to make plays after the catch'' also comes with baggage.

He was suspended indefinitely by Baylor coach Art Briles prior to the 2011 season following a marijuana arrest, and transferred to Utah, where he had sit out the season. Rather than play for the Utes this season, he declared for the supplemental draft for financial reasons, according to reports.

But he showed enough in hisone full season in 2010 to impress pro scouts and coaches. That season, he caught 42 passes for 714 yards and seven TDs. The Browns also have some inside insight into Gordon from Baylor alum Phil Taylor and from their close associate Brian Norwood, Baylor assistant head coach and father of Browns receiver Jordan Norwood.

Seven other players have declared for Thursday's supplemental draft, but none with the potential star power of Gordon. The last time the Browns selected a player in the special draft was Bernie Kosar in 1985.


if you watch her workouts and her physical performances on the show, she has the pedigree of a champion.

Introducing Jenny: The most striking thing about Jenny is the fact she debuted on the Challenge at 32 and is currently 33. That is wildly different from the past where Evelyn and Casey were 18 when they first appeared on the Challenge, and Wes was 21 when he won the Duel. It’s fascinating to see cast members entering the show at an older age. Jenny is active and lively like someone much younger than herself, but she potentially has a greater understanding and appreciation for her spot on the show than most rookies.

Her original reality show was Survival of the Fittest, a show that was a mix of Love Islandand the early days of the Challenge. Jenny was part of the winning team on that show. She more or less gained fame from her Instagram, where she and her twin sister held a joint account. They were like the Nolan Twins of fitness.

During War of the Worlds 2, Jenny became quick friends with Georgia, Theo, and Kyle. She made the logical move of befriending/aligning the veterans and best players on her team. Unfortunately for them, Wes had been playing the game in the DMs weeks in advance and formed this giant web alliance that included Paulie, Cara, Ashley, CT, Rogan, Dee, and a whole lot of others. Jenny got put on the outside and forced to go up against Tori Deal in elimination once the numbers dwindled.


Despite having more muscle, Jenny was not used to physical contact, and as I mentioned above, she got flung.

Jenny enters this season with winning on her mind. She would also probably like another crack at Hall Brawl so that she could wash away the image of her on the floor from the last time. Also, I am fascinated to see if she hooks up with anyone. There was the rumor last season that she hooked up with Bananas, but that was dismissed.

Jenny West: 33 Years Old, 5'8, 125–135 lbs, 1 Season, 1–1 Elimination Record, 0x Finalist

Skills and Physical Strength: Most of the daily challenges last season were team-based in such a way that you could only stand out if you were exceptionally awful. In the one trueWar of the Worlds 2. All that happened was she ended up on the wrong side of the giant Team USA that ran the game from both sides. She created friendships with Kyle, Theo, Georgia, and Tori. If Tori and Jenny link up this season, then that would be a scary duo who could easily dominate this season.

Jenny didn’t display the ability to do well in puzzles last season. Her first elimination involved her climbing up a glass case ninja-style where she’d have to memorize a puzzle pattern. While Jenny won, it did scare me that TJ was impressed by the number of times that she went up and down the glass case. Part of me felt that she should have been able to solve the simple puzzle

In addition to pushing the launch of the uncrewed SpaceX Demo-1 mission, which had been expected, the revised dates have pushed the uncrewed Boeing test and the crewed SpaceX Demo-2 mission. The only mission to not suffer delays is the crewed Boeing test which remains scheduled for August 2019.

Gamma Ray bursts have been mysterious events since their discovery in the late 1960's.

Agassi inducted into US Open Court of Champions

New York, Sep 10, 2012, (AP)

Andre Agassi reminisced about that first US Open trip 26 years ago, when he showed up "rocking a spiky, fluffy, two-tone mullet."

The teenager with a freshly minted driver's permit caught a bus too late and missed his practice time. He didn't miss much of anything else in more than two decades of visiting Flushing Meadows.

The two-time winner was inducted yesterday into the US Open Court of Champions at Arthur Ashe Stadium before the women's final.

"I wish I had the words to describe the sound you make during critical matches, the roar, the applause, the love," the 42-year-old Agassi told the New York


fans during the ceremony. "It's like a jet engine and a giant heartbeat."

He competed in the tournament a men's Open-era record 21 consecutive times, from 1986 through 2006. In 1994, Agassi became the first unseeded player in the Open era to capture the title. He won again in 1999, part of his eight career Grand Slam championships.

On that day in 1986, the 16-year-old Agassi couldn't convince the attendant overseeing the practice courts that he belonged at the Open.

"Sadly I couldn't convince my first-round opponent either," he said of a four-set loss to 128th-ranked Jeremy Bates. Andy Roddick, who followed Agassi as the American star of the Open, took part in the ceremony four days after he retired following a fourth-round loss. Roddick recalled idolizing Agassi as a youngPennsylvania State Police said a trooper died in the line of duty on Saturday.Police say 58-year-old Trooper Donald C.

the data sets are closely aligned, offering more credence to reports of disproportionality among the homeless population.

In general, the data shows that while exits from the system continue to rise — because a person was housed or simply stopped showing up — those exits are outpaced by new entries. This illuminates the dynamic nature of the homeless population and has dogged local officials’ efforts at stemming the crisis for years. Progress made is eclipsed by new entries into the system.

Exits to permanent housing, however, are increasing — 6,800 last year, compared with 4,900 in 2016.

All Home is releasing its top-line data at the same time that it is required to submit it to HUD. However, the agency has not yet released its more detailed look at the data.As a result, geographic specifics and information about subpopulations such as people who are living in their vehicles are not yet available. The full report is expected at the end of May.

Reacting to the data, King County Executive Dow Constantine said in a statement that he was “heartened” to see progress and pointed to “regional collaborations” as a driving factor.

The data comes out during a particularly tense moment in Seattle, driven in large part by a persistently visible homeless population and fights over the best method for getting people off the streets.

New Delhi: The Delhi government has warned all liquor vends, hotels, clubs, bars and pubs here against selling and serving alcohol to "underage" customers, saying non-compliance would attract strict action including cancellation of licence.

As per the Delhi Excise Rules, serving liquor to any person below 25 years is an offence in the national capital, and the government will strictly implement it.

In case of any doubt about the age of the customer, the city's clubs, bars, pubs, liquor vends and hotels can ask for "age-proof" which ascertains that he or


she is not under the age of 25 years, a senior government official told PTI.

"As per the Section 23 of the Delhi Excise Act, 2009, no person or licensed vendor or his employee or agent can sell or deliver any liquor to any person under the age of 25 years. We consider serving or selling liquor to the underage customer as a major offence," the official said.

According to the official, if the offence is proved, strict action, including cancellation or suspension of licence and imposition of heavy fines, on an erring establishment can be taken under the Delhi Excise Rules.

The license of a famous bar in Delhi's Hauz Khas area was recently suspended by the excise department for serving liquor to "underage" customer, the official said.

The film, about former U.S. Vice President Al Gore’s campaign to educate people about climate change in the United States, “was a wakeup call”, Farris said – and led to her investigating what was happening in the country where she moved 15 years ago and has since become a naturalized citizen.

The result is “Nowhere to Run”, an award-winning film that looks at the ties between problems such as expanding deserts, water shortages and sea level rise and threats such as the rise of Boko Haram.

“This film is Nigeria’s ‘Inconvenient


the foundation’s coordinator of public policy initiatives, believes that the documentary’s greatest impact has been to turn an abstract international issue into a pressing local one.

According to him, a survey conducted after the film’s premiere revealed that 85 percent of attendees said they didn’t know – until seeing the film – that there was anything like climate change in Nigeria.

“People were making those connections for the first time,” he said.

The film, which premiered in Nigeria in November 2015 and has been shown around the country and in some international settings, will have its full international debut in January when it will be made available to download online.

It has already won the “best documentary short” award at the 2015 African Film Festival in Dallas, Texas.

The documentary was created withOronto Douglas, a leading environmental human rights lawyer, and Ken Saro-Wiwa Jr., named after his father who was one of Nigeria’s most outspoken environmentalists.

The elder Saro-Wiwa’s activism eventually led to his execution in 1994 by the then military government of Sani Abacha. His son, who narrated the film, died of a stroke in London last month.

Nigeria’s government contributed funding to the film project in 2013, after the Yar’Adua Foundation made the case that climate change was a threat to national security.

“Nowhere to Run” gets its title from a woman interviewed in the film, who described how flooding had disrupted her community in Anambra state in southeast Nigeria, forcing families to move out of their houses and sleep and cook in the streets.

As Dr. Kirimi Sindi drove past the lush, green, rolling hills of Rwanda, he called the region "the country of a thousand hills." He was traveling with a group of aid workers from the non-profit International Potato Center, also known as CIP from its Spanish acronym, to meet with farmers in rural areas.

"There were cases of malnutrition in my community," said Drocella Yankulije, a farmer from the southern district of Muhanga. "But after growing sweet potatoes, these cases have been reduced."

Nearly half the children in Rwanda's rural areas suffer from impaired growth and vision loss, both due to vitamin A deficiencies. As a result, CIP has made it a priority to introduce orangeroot provides 100 percent of recommended daily intake of vitamin A for kids.

Two of Uwubumwe Jean's six children, living in a rural village in Musanze, started to lose their vision when she was able to start feeding them sweet potatoes.

"The color of my child's eyes changed," said Jean. "After she started editing orange-fleshed sweet potatoes, the eyes turned back to normal."

CIP's initiative, funded in part by a four million dollar investment from USAID, also aims to help farmers generate an income from orange sweet potatoes.

"I was so poor," said Yankulije. "I had to beg for clothing."

For years, Yankulije lived in poverty. Now, she grows orange sweet potatoes so successfully that she can hire other women to work in her

As Donald Trump aims to exit the US from the Paris Agreement, the biggest economy in the country assumes leadership on tackling climate change.

California is the only US state to have a cap and trade scheme in place. It was set to expire in 2020, but an extension of the scheme has been passed by the California legislature. The new scheme will run until 2030, and the only remaining task was for California Governor, Jerry Brown, to sign it into law.

This sermon was offered this morning at San Jose Episcopal Church where I was blessed to preach and celebrate.

(Deuteronomy 30:15-20, Psalm 119:1-8; 1 Cor 3:1-9; Matt 5:21-37)

“Fully alive.”

A few weeks ago I had an opportunity to
meet a remarkable man.
He serves as the chaplain at
a nearby state mental hospital.
Chaplain Gene offers spiritual support to the
300 residents and staff members of that facility.

He shared a story of a woman who had a
deep longing for God.
She was psychotic and, though medication could sometimes quiet the voices that plagued her,
it could not silence them altogether.
Nights were particularly bad for her.
She was convinced that she was demon-possessed.
She struggled to understand why God
would not save her from this hell on earth.
She imagined she must be inherently bad.

Chaplain Gene is a staunch Southern Baptist.
He isfond of saying that 25 years ago
he had a number of answers for most any question.
But with the passage of time — and after serving
almost 2 decades with the mentally ill —
he is quick to say that he has few if any answers.

He spends much of his time walking
around the hospital grounds,
talking to folks and listening to those
who need an ear.
He offers a couple of devotional services during
the week in common gathering areas.

Before I headed back to Jacksonville,
we spent some time in a lovely free-standing
chapel located on the grounds of the hospital.
Chaplain Gene told me that the previous weekend,
they had offered the first Sunday Eucharist service
in more than 2 ½ years.

With funding cutbacks, they simply could not
afford to pay the staff that would be needed

1995). Upon her release, Mary is first transported to a room covered with a multi-colored abstract wallpaper. Mary experiences colors for the first time, but she cannot connect her sensations to the concepts she has had before. It is only at the second step that Mary learns which color is which. It is then that she acquires information which is analogous to a selflocating belief. Thus, the analogy – Stalnaker concludes – cannot explain what she learns at the first step. Stalnaker discusses yet another – although in his own view apparent – difficulty with the analogy. Many philosophers would say that there is an asymmetry between the two types of knowledge: while the information one learns when he acquires a self-locating belief is a contingent one (whatO'Leary, who don't know his true identity, call him "Nathan". One day they see a crowd of journalists gathering in front of the library. O'Leary asks his friend: "Do you know who it is?" pointing at a man surrounded by journalists. "Yes" – Daniels replies – "it is our famous amnesiac friend, Nathan". In this context – as Stalnaker argues – we can represent Daniels' beliefs straightforwardly as beliefs about Lingens: the possibilities he eliminates are those in which it is someone other than Lingens whom they see. On the other hand, if one of the journalists approaches Daniels and asks him "Do you know who it is?" pointing at Lingens, the theorist would like to emphasize Daniels' ignorance with respect to his friend's true identity and he


other without noticing any difference. Stalnaker claims that the thought experiment with Mary and the two stars shows that the principle is false. After being presented with the red star, Mary still doesn't know which one is the actual world: the one in which she was shown a red star, or the one in which she was shown a green star. The two worlds should be phenomenally indistinguishable for her, while in fact they are not. If they were, we would have to accept that there is a counterfactual world in which she saw a green star, which is phenomenally indistinguishable from the actual one in which she saw a red star. The principle of epistemic indistinguishability commits us – Stalnaker concludes – to the existence of phenomenalinformation (Stalnaker 2008: 90-91). We may, however, disagree with Stalnaker in that Mary doesn't know whether she was shown a red or green star. She knows which star she was shown, she only doesn't know the name of its color. If she was first shown a red star, and a moment later a green, yellow, and a blue one, and if she was asked which of the stars she saw first, she would be able to eliminate the possibilities. Stalnaker does indeed discuss a similar case: he claims that even when Mary names all the colors, but she cannot relate these names with the names she was using while locked in the black and white room, it is a matter of context whether we would ascribe to her


see his wife and daughter. Dinardo was convicted and was sentenced to 25 years' to life imprisonment. At sentencing, the judge suggested to Dinardo that his sentence could be reduced were he to testify against Murdoch. Dinardo agreed and received in return a reduction of his conviction to voluntary manslaughter and a reduced sentence of 12 years' imprisonment.

Dinardo was a key witness at Murdoch's trial. He testified that, in 1983, Murdoch had approached him "to do a job" and that the two of them, together with two other men, robbed the Horseshoe Bar. According to Dinardo, when they entered the bar, Murdoch carried a .22 caliber rifle and announced loudly, "Don't nobody move. This is a stick-up." Dinardo took this as his cue to empty the cash register.He fumbled with the buttons on the register, heard a gunshot, emptied the register, and ran out the back door, joining the other two men in the getaway car, with Murdoch joining them about a minute later. He recalled seeing Murdoch in possession of the rifle both in the bar and in the car. Dinardo testified that the first time he learned that someone had been shot in the robbery was the day of his arrest, 11 years after the crime.

6
During Murdoch's trial, Murdoch's attorney, Dinardo's attorney, the prosecutor, and the presiding judge discussed a letter addressed to Dinardo's former counsel. The letter was first brought to the court's attention by the prosecutor, who indicated that in her interviews of Dinardo, he told her of the existence of


he was initially questioned by the police, he had lied and denied that he had ever been inside the Horseshoe Bar. He admitted that he would have done "whatever it took" to get out of custody and be reunited with his daughter. He also testified to convictions for grand theft in 1982 and petty theft in 1984. On re-direct examination by the prosecutor, Dinardo testified that during the police questioning, he named a "Charles or Chuck" as someone else involved in the crime, but he could not remember the last name. He was shown photographs at the end of the interview, and he identified Murdoch as one of his accomplices. On re-cross, he stated that he had testified in his own trial that his confession had been coerced.He also admitted that, had the fingerprints not identified him as one of the robbers, he would have continued to lie to the police about his involvement.

8
In addition to Dinardo, other witnesses from the Horeshoe Bar testified and provided in-court identification of Murdoch. The bartender, Dyanne Spence, described looking into Murdoch's eyes down the barrel of a rifle pointed at her face. "He's been scaring me for years," she said. She also testified that she had identified Murdoch at a live lineup at the county jail in 1994 and that she was sure "beyond a shadow of a doubt" that Murdoch had committed the crime.

Murdoch was convicted of first-degree murder with a robbery-murder special circumstance, and sentenced to life imprisonment without parole. The California Court of Appeal affirmed


letter from those materials and Dinardo's testimony against Murdoch. I have endeavored to do so here.

Dinardo's letter is dated December 1, 1994, about five months after his arrest on June 29, 1994. The robbery and murder occurred over eleven years earlier on May 17, 1983. At the time of his arrest and also at the time he wrote the letter, Dinardo knew that a fingerprint found on the Horseshoe Bar's cash register connected him to the crime. His testimony at Murdoch's trial also indicates that, on his initial arrest, he was unaware that the police suspected him of complicity in the murder that occurred during the robbery. Dinardo thought the police had arrested him only for robbery, but learned of the murder charge when he arrived at themanner allowing for actual wind rose and wind speed statistics (along with thermocline data).

Water pollution line source

Less common are line source applications in the field of water pollutant dispersal.  This phenomenon generally arises when surface runoff scours soil contaminants from upper soil layers and transports these pollutants to a linear receiving water, such as a river.  The underlying land management practices which lead to such sources of water pollution are logging, pesticide application, construction grading, slash-and-burn activity and urban stormwater runoff.

Again computer models are needed to address the complexity of such an extended linear discharge into a dynamic medium such as flowing water.  The resulting surface runoff water carrying pollutants may be considered a line source discharging into a river or stream.  The chemical

INTRODUCTION

Jeffrey P. Eves and his successor


John B. Shlaes oversaw White House conferences and briefings organized by the Office of Public Liaison during the last portion of the Nixon administration and the entire Ford presidency. Eves also served as liaison with business special interest groups in 1974. The materials described here consist partly of correspondence and topical files from Eves' work with business representatives, but are primarily working files accumulated by Eves and Shlaes or their assistants while planning, conducting or following-up on the conferences.

Eves came to the White House staff in May 1974 from his government relations post with the National Association of Manufacturers. Initially responsible for building Nixon administration contacts with business and industry representatives, Eves sought ways to increase the feedback from special interest groups outside Washington, DC. Apparently with Eves'strong urging, William Baroody initiated a regular program of briefings on administration policies (Wednesday Meetings) and a series of field conferences chaired by key administration officials. Vice President Ford hosted the Chicago conference in the summer of 1974. With President Ford's support, Baroody and the newly created Office of Public Liaison expanded the scope and frequency of these conferences. Ford attended eleven out of 14 conferences in 1974 and 1975 in large cities throughout the United States.

Based on a town hall concept, the conferences consisted of short presentations by high-level officials on major domestic and economic issues to representatives of business, labor, student, women and other special interest groups. The representatives then had an opportunity to respond with comments and questions. The conferences were funded by an $18


admission fee.

Eves and his assistant Shlaes handled most of the advance work, compiled the final invitation list, and managed each event, including the preparation of briefing books and itineraries. All fourteen conferences were heavily covered by regional and national press, whose comments were assembled by Eves and his assistants and forwarded to selected White House staff and the President. Other follow-up activities consisted largely of thank-you notes and mailings of conference transcripts.

John Shlaes joined the Public Liaison Office in December 1974 to help Eves. After January 1976, Shlaes acted effectively as co-director in arranging a series of White House conferences on President Ford's proposed consumer representation plans. The nine conferences in January, chaired by presidential special assistant Virginia Knauer and cabinet secretaries, were designed to air President Ford'salternatives to proposed consumer protection agency legislation to consumer groups and the press.

With Eves' April 1976 departure and increased emphasis on primary and general election campaigns, Shlaes and Public Liaison did not continue the series of "non-political" conferences. He concentrated instead on briefings for carefully chosen groups and presidential spokespersons. Shlaes worked with John Vickerman on business liaison matters and the Wednesday Meetings, handled housing and hospitality arrangements for the Republican National Convention in Kansas City, and acted as advance man and planner for the President's campaign swing on the paddlewheel boat "Natchez".

These files consist of Eves' and Shlaes' working files. They primarily document conference planning and coordination activities, especially the extensive liaison with participating federal officials and local co-sponsoring groups that handled logistical details for each White

Teapresso

Teapresso may serve coffee, but tea is really its specialty.

Teapresso focuses mainly on the first part of its name—tea. Unlike the former inhabitants of the glass corner shop on street level Executive Center, you won’t get much in the way of variety of coffee at Teapresso. The server’s first suggestion was a sea foam caramel coffee. Its saving grace is a dark brew known as Death Wish, an organic coffee boasting twice the caffeine content(1996).

The regulations allocate responsibility for personnel decisions among various elements at a typical Head Start program.  Hiring and firing staff members is the "general responsibility" of the Board of Directors.3  The Executive Director has the "operating responsibility" for "performing the function" consistent with the directions of the Board.  Finally, the PPC must approve the firing decision before final action is taken.  Id. The regulations do not include any substantive standards regarding personnel policies or procedural guidelines.

Mary Morse was hired as a temporary teacher's aide in NCO's Head Start program in September 1993, and became a regular employee in December.  Morse was laid off at the end of the Head Start semester in June 1994.  On July 27, 1994, Morse received notice that


she would not be rehired in the fall.  Morse claims that this decision was made in retaliation for complaints she had raised regarding the Head Start program, while NCO claims that the decision was based on her poor evaluations.  According to NCO, the decision to terminate Morse was initiated by NCO's Manager of Children's Services, and approved by NCO's Executive Director.  The matter was then submitted to the PPC which also approved the decision.

6
Morse filed suit in federal district court against NCO in May 1995 alleging four claims.  Her first cause of action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 stated that NCO violated her First, Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment rights under color of State law and requested $800,000 in damages plus attorneys' fees.

On Wednesday, December 19, 2012, at about 4:30 PM, the Escondido Police Department arrested Hector Robles (30 years) and Diana Ponce (24 years) after a several hour SWAT standoff.

At about 12:30 PM, EPD Gang Unit detectives discovered Robles and Ponce were in a home in the 500 block of W. 7th Ave. The detectives had been looking for Robles and Ponce because they were suspects in recent crimes that had happened in the City of Escondido back in the first days of December of this year. The crimes were violent in nature and weapons were involved.

At about 1:00 PM, the detectives made a call into the home to get Robles and


Ponce to come out and surrender. Robles and Ponce would not answer the phone call. The detectives made announcements on a bullhorn to convince the pair to come out. Neither suspect answered.

Because of the history of violence with the two suspects, detectives made a request for additional on-duty officers to assist. At about 2:00 PM, it became clear that neither suspect was going to give up, and the EPD SWAT and Emergency Negotiations Team was activated to respond.

During the incident, some homes were evacuated and streets in the surrounding area were blocked. Attempts to get the suspects to come out of the home or answer calls did not work.

Later during the incident, SWAT officers deployed tear gas into the home to see if the suspects would respond. TheSource: Vaultoro.com

Today with the launch of Vaultoro.com a person in Australia can potentially pay for a friend's beer in New York instantly using gold. Vaultoro is combining the oldest currency - gold - with bitcoin, the newest currency in the world.

For the first time people around the world will be able to trade bitcoin and gold 100% bank independently. Users' gold is insured and vaulted in professional Swiss vaults while its value flies around the world in realtime.

When Satoshi Nakamoto originally invented bitcoin, he/she modelled a lot of the protocol on gold. The key differences between the two are that gold has a historically stable price but is heavy and expensive to send; on the other hand, bitcoin has a very volatile price but is fast and cheap


to send worldwide. By allowing people to instantly convert their bitcoin to gold and back they are effectively backing their bitcoin with gold, removing the price volatility, but also enabling people to send their gold instantly around the world.

Many people in the bitcoin community got into the crypto currency with an aim to exit the main stream financial system, but to deal with the massive volatility of the currency a lot of those same people have to trade back and forth into euro or dollars. Gold protects people against the price volatility of bitcoin without them ever having to go back into fiat currencies, which is attractive to a large number of the bitcoin community.

The other issue Vaultoro set out to solve was dishonest exchanges.

Joshua Scigala, cofounder ofVaultoro.com, was financially hit by the collapse of the bitcoin exchange MtGox at the end of 2012, and this was the inspiration to create a fully auditable bitcoin exchange.

"The technology of bitcoin is moving far too fast for government regulators to keep up with, but the free market is demanding better answers and is starting to effectively regulate itself. If exchanges don't produce what the market wants then they don't get customers," says Scigala. "Transparency of our books is our number one priority, so Vaultoro takes full advantage of the public bitcoin ledger to constantly prove full reserves. The gold holdings are insured and audited every 6 months by one of the largest auditing firms in the world."

union literature to company employees on a parking lot which respondent provided for the use of its employees on company property adjacent to the company's chemical plant near Soda Springs, Idaho.

2
Respondent owns a 500 acre tract of land approximately one mile from Soda Springs, a town of some 2000 inhabitants.  Its chemical manufacturing plant is located upon that tract of land and the buildings are approximately half a mile from the state highway which runs past the tract.  Its private road leads from the highway to the plant structures.  Near the plant office building the respondent has provided a parking area for the use of its employees.  It is separated by a fence from the plant buildings.  There is no public transportation availablefor the union here involved, accompanied by a union business representative, went to the parking area and there requested of the guard in charge of the area the privilege of distributing union literature.  They were told that the company rule forbade this.  They then interviewed management representatives who refused to grant permission to distribute literature in the parking area stating that the distribution of union or other literature on company property was contrary to the company policy.  The union representatives then returned to a point where the private road from the company plant approached the state highway and stationed themselves there for the purpose of undertaking to distribute union literature to employees who drove away from the plant toward the highway.  Although a stop


sign was placed at this location, yet because there was little traffic on the highway, most of the employees' automobiles did not stop there.  Hence on this occasion as on previous occasions when distribution had been attempted at this point by the union representatives they found little or no opportunity to distribute their literature for the employees simply drove past without stopping.  It is conceded that the respondent had and expressed no objection to the distribution of literature on the private road and at that highway intersection.  Later the two union representatives returned to the parking area and commenced distribution of literature there.  They were then approached and ordered to leave the place and they did so.  Again they attempted to distribute literaturethat the manufacturing plant was located near a small town; it employed approximately 200 persons, two-thirds of whom lived in town and the balance within a radius of five to thirty miles from the city.  All employees rode to and from work in privately owned automobiles.  There also the non-stop method of driving from and to the plant made it virtually impossible for the union representative to communicate with the employees as they drove on or off the property.  The court refused to enforce the board's order requiring the employer to desist from prohibiting the use of its parking lot by non-employee union organizers and said: 'As we have seen, the fundamental basis for permitting the solicitation of union membership on company property is to


on company property.'  In short, the Board appears to have predicated its conclusions upon the assumption that this was a case like the Lake Superior Lumber Corp. case, supra, in that it was 'virtually impossible or unreasonably difficult' to reach employees off the premises of the employer.

17
The record here fails to sustain any such conclusion.  Wright, the business agent of the union, one of the two union representatives who sought to distribute the literature on the parking lot, testified that he had made no attempt to contact employees in Soda Springs where 67% of the employees lived.  He testified that he had made no attempt to contact employees by mail.  The personnel manager of the respondent company testified that the company had not beenMordellistena benitensis

semifinals to set up a rematch with Ridgway.

The Raiders were missing freshman Brock Zacherl at 119-pounds who was in the hospital with an illness.

Zacherl is ranked second in the state for Class AA in the 119-pound weight class according to Off The Mat.

When the match started at 119-pounds, the Elkers were able to take advantage of Zacherl being out in the first two bouts.

The Elkers chose to wrestle Corey Bush, who normally wrestles at 119-pounds, up to 125-pounds and had Tad Pierce wrestle Devin Gill at 119-pounds.

Pierce pinned Gill in 3:06 and Bush scored a 12-4 major decision over Dustin Dombrowski, giving Ridgway a 10-0 lead.

When the two teams first wrestled, Zacherl beat Bush 7-5 and Dombrowski pinned Ridgway's Trevor Delhunty in 52 seconds.

"We flipped-flopped two of theclose matches we lost last time," Klepfer said. "But they stole wins at 119 and 125-pounds, where we got both wins last time."

The Raiders continued to battle and came back behind decisions from Brodie Zacherl (130 pounds), Zach Vroman (140) and Ron Clark, a tehnical fall from Dylan Zimmerman (145) and a pin from Jake Shields (189), which tied the match at 20 with four bouts remaining.

The lead was short lived as the Elkers' Jesse Sheasely (HWT) pinned Luke Geer in 1:09 to set up a big match at 103. With Brookville trailing 26-23, a Ridgway pin would give the Elkers the District IX title. Brookville's Brady Mineweaser (103), who pinned Ridgways' Cody Stahl a week earlier, needed to win or lose in a decision.

Mineweaser nearly pinned Stahl


in the first period, but Stahl managed to avoid the fall. In the third period, with Mineweaser ahead, Stahl caught Mineweaser in a move and pinned him at 4:22.

"They're two kids that love to get out there and scrap," Klepfer said. "It was fun to watch, but we were a little inexperienced with some of the positions he was in and he got caught in one of those positions."

Ridgway forfeited the last match to Brookville.

"I talked to them after the forfeit and told them I was proud of the way they wrestled," Klepfer said. "Every kid gave it everything they had, it just wasn't our day."Friday, 3 October 2008

The Bros are releasing their video for their latest single, LoveBug soon. And, Kevin Jonas says of the clip, "We have a dream of what it can be. It's about capturing that idea. We want to make sure it's always right."

As for the song, the guys wrote it while on the road touring with Disney Slut Miley Cyrus.

Nick Jonas says, "We wrote it while on the Christmas break of the 'Hannah Montana' tour. So we were in the hotel room and sat down that night and wrote it in about 15 or 20 minutes."

The inspiration for the song? It actually came from the movie Juno??????, the Jonai say.

"Nancy and the Chamber have done an excellent job, but other people might have different ideas on how to use the complex," he said. "The city has concerns and we have cut expenses."

Only City Councilman John James, a 4B director, and Marks were on time for the 4 p.m. meeting. Michael Dobey arrived at 4:20, but City Director of Community Development Monette Burke said Wesley Bownds was on a conference call and Cary Billingsley was unavailable.

Hoppel said Oakland A's General Manager Billy Beane had proved empathetic to the city's budgetary straits and the council's skepticism about financing a $325,000 indoor batting cage for the RockHounds.

An oncoming vehicle crossed the lane divide, plowing into the car Garrett was riding in. Garrett sustained major injuries to his spinal cord, and he currently has no feeling or movement from the upper chest down.

Garrett and his fiancee, Joan, recently moved to Boston in September 2015. Prior to the accident, they were busy planning their beautiful wedding here on Long Island. “The wedding was to be March 4,” said Joan’s mother in an interview with the Boston Herald. “Now we are going to march forth, however we can.”

The Jack Report – Thai Politics For Dummies

Forty-two political parties in Thailand contested the 2011 General Election. Forty of them were sniffing around hoping to pick up a vote or two in what was thought, at the time, to be an incoming coalition government. Only two of them really matter.

To our left, in the Red corner, we have the Pheu Thai Party, which is the third and latest incarnation of ousted former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra’s Thai Rak Thai (TRT) Party, which won the 2001 and 2005 elections in landslides.

Pheu Thai represent the workers. Those living in the north and north-east. The farmers. The unskilled and poorly educated. And anybody else who is ‘anti-establishment.’

And over there, way over there, on the Right, we have the Democratic Party. Foundedin 1946, at the end of the second world war, it is conservative, pro-establishment and pro-monarchy. It is the party of the Bangkok elite who control all of the wealth and, crucially, is supported by heads of the Thai Military.

Red Shirts v Yellow Shirts – Left v Right

Having failed to win the votes of the poor people, which is the majority, the Democrats had also failed to win an election for two-decades prior to 2008. That was the year their army intervened and sent the democratically elected Red Shirts running up the hill.

Shinawatra was chased into exile and, with the party either in disarray or in prison, the democrats, the Yellow Shirts, the party of the army, won the new election and their leader, Abhisit Vejjajiva, became Prime


It's taken eight-and-a-half years – but The Independent's £5,000 prize for explaining the disappearance of the house sparrow from our towns and cities finally has a serious entry, with a serious theory.

Insect decline, featured prominently in this newspaper last Saturday, is offered as the reason for the biggest bird mystery of modern times by a group of four scientists from the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB), De Montfort University in Leicester and Natural England, the Government's wildlife agency.

Their theory, put forward in a scientific paper to be published in a forthcoming issue of the journal Animal Conservation, is based on intensive research in Leicester, showing that sparrow chicks were starving in their nests because their parents could not find enough insects to feed them. Sohas been overwhelmingly an urban one. Although still relatively plentiful in small towns in the countryside and by the sea, in many major conurbations, sparrows have disappeared. Numbers started falling in cities in the mid-1980s and the species has virtually vanished from central London – for example, St James's Park holds all the common garden birds such as blue tits, robins and blackbirds, but sparrows, which were once plentiful, died out in the park in the late 1990s. There was no obvious cause. House sparrows are also disappearing from Bristol, Edinburgh and Dublin, as well as Hamburg, Prague and Moscow but curiously, they are faring better in Paris and Berlin.

When The Independent launched its campaign, many potential reasons for the decline were suggested by readers, which included increased

A 10-year-old boy was so distraught, he had to hide under a conference room table to recount to prosecutors the abuse he experienced.

And one child found himself comforting his own mother, telling her, "Mommy, It's not your fault."

The agony Deonte Carraway secretly inflicted on the families of the children he sexually abused or exploited was out in the open Thursday morning, when the former elementary school aide and community choir director was sentenced to 100 years in prison.

The sentence covers the 23 counts of child sex abuse and pornography to which he pleaded guilty in Prince George's County Circuit Court — one charge for every child authorities say he abused.

"You did your


apologized.

"It was wrong and I shouldn't have done it," Carraway said standing in orange prison scrubs before the judge. "I wish I could go back and stop myself from doing it, but that's not how life works."

Carraway will serve the 100-year sentence from the county case simultaneously with the 75-year prison term he received last month in federal court on related charges.

Prince George's County State's Attorney Angela Alsobrooks said the state purposefully sought a harsher sentence than the federal term to increase the likelihood Carraway will spend the rest of his life in prison.

"The parents are devastated and remain devastated," Alsobrooks said. "These are the kinds of injuries that don't go away."

[Child-porn suspect ‘always had six or seven kids around. It’s a little strange.’]

Woodard, who spent 12 yearschildren that to join the club, they had to send inappropriate photos to him and later threatened to report children to police or alert their parents if they didn't continue allowing themselves to be exploited.

Outside of school and the choir, Carraway acted as a helpful babysitter, offering to walk children to and from school or help them with homework, prosecutors said.

Families have questioned how Carraway was allowed to perpetrate such acts on the grounds of Sylvania Woods during the school day and how he was permitted to be alone with children in a Glenarden government building where some of the abuse also occurred.

Parents have filed several civil lawsuits against Carraway, the city of Glenarden and the Prince George's County Public School system.

"We are grateful for the court's very


strong sentence," said Timothy F. Maloney, an attorney representing several families in the case. "Now that the criminal cases have been concluded, our clients will now be able to seek relief in the pending civil cases."

The school system has since implemented administrative and policy changes involving student safety and how it handles reports of child sex abuse.

"The Prince George's County Board of Education has worked collaboratively with our county government, community and nonprofit partners to ensure safe learning environments for all students," Board of Education Chair Segun C. Eubanks said in a statement. "In response to the incident at Judge Sylvania Woods Elementary School, the student safety task force made comprehensive recommendations to protect children from harm, even from individuals with no prior criminal history."The Cairn's life seems to be a harmonic family: The father Brad works as a stockbroker, his wife Abby takes care of their common new-born daughter Lily, and the 9-year-old Joshua is high-talented. But the appearances are deceptive. Joshua becomes gradual jealously, that his parents give the baby more attention than him. Therefore he begins to terrorize his family. Written by RSaVLSG
