4 p.m. check-in, when the housekeeping staff goes from room to room. Moreno said guests occasionally answer the door naked -- without even so much as a towel -- something that her sister, who used to work as a housekeeper, has also experienced.

Housekeepers Share Their Stories

Moreno, and many other female hotel workers, are now speaking out, inspired by the bravery of two New York hotel maids.

After the New York housekeepers reported alleged abuse, police arrested two powerful men: Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the former head of the International Monetary Fund and former banking executive Mahmoud Abdel Salam Omar, who now heads El-Mex Salines Co., a solar salt producer in Egypt.

Omar is accused of sexually abusing a maid Sunday at The Pierre, a luxury 5-star hotel on New York's swanky 5thmother of two told ABC News she can recall at least six instances in the past 11 years when she has been solicited by hotel guests, including one man who closely watched as she cleaned his room.

Valera said he asked her whether she needed some extra cash. Confused, she questioned him, and then she says he offered to pay if she gave him an intimate massage. When she realized what he was asking, she gasped, and ran out of the room.

"My body was shaking like ... oh my god," she said. "At the same time I was shaking, I was rushing ... and the only thing I was thinking was 'go'."

The Chinese Christian Union of San Francisco filed a civil complaint last week demanding the city remove the concrete circular urinal from the iconic Dolores Park.

The group says the urinal, which is out in the open and screened only with plants for privacy, "emanates offensive odors," ''has no hand-washing facilities" and "it's offensive to manners and morals."

Hotel Suite Tour: Royal Penthouse Suite at Corinthia Hotel London

Corinthia Hotel London’s Royal Penthouse Suite offers arguably the best views of the British capital from the comfort of a luxurious, 5,000-square-foot haven, where guests can reside in regal grandeur. Hotel manager Renaud Gregoire tells Elite Traveler TV why this gorgeous suite is one of a kind.

From the moment you step into the Royal Penthouse Suite at Corinthia Hotel London, you feel like royalty. Spread over two floors, the 5,000-square-foot residence – complete with a built-in massage room, a private lift and a roof terrace, offering 180° panoramic views of the capital – is the ultimate in luxury.

Describing the penthouse as “the best suite in London”, hotel manager Gregoire says the breathtaking view has capturedno arrest warrant. They told plaintiff that he was wanted in New York on drug charges. The only information they had was that a Leonel Buenrostro, with the same birthdate as plaintiff, and with brown eyes, was wanted in New York. The Puerto Rico police had located plaintiff using the name through the Puerto Rico driver registration system. Through the use of the system they obtained plaintiff's social security number and address. He was handcuffed, taken to police headquarters, and put in a cell. Eventually, Buenrostro was brought before a judge who sought to get Buenrostro to waive the extradition hearing. When Buenrostro refused and asserted his innocence, the judge ordered his immediate detention in the State Penitentiary. A sworn statement was made out by one of the


dispute that the photo and fingerprints were in police custody at the time of the arrest (either in New York or Puerto Rico, it is not clear when they were actually sent to Puerto Rico) and that it was just a matter of requesting them and making the comparison. (As stated earlier, it now appears that the individual actually wanted in New York was a relative of Leonel Buenrostro who had used the plaintiff's name and birth date when he (the relative) was booked in New York on a previous occasion).

Timeliness: The Four Officers
The original complaint did not allege the names of all of the police officers involved, but instead listed twenty "John Does". Later, plaintiff moved to amend the complaint to add four officers ("the officers"), allAdministrative Director of the Criminal Justice Information System. The suit alleged only local law negligence, and sought both monetary damages and an order that the various record keepers purge their files of any information relating to the erroneous arrest.
The judge in the matter found that Betancourt Lebrón was not the superintendent at the time of the acts and, therefore, could not possibly be liable. Since plaintiffs have agreed voluntarily to drop him as a defendant from the suit, there is no res judicata problem as to him, and the complaint as to him is dismissed.
Three of the defendants before us were sued in their official capacities in the Commonwealth court action, all on the issue of purging records related to the arrest. Since there was a complete identity


Penitentiary requires a slightly different analysis. First, the conditions that Mr. Buenrostro suffered at the prison are certainly relevant to the damages aspect of his suit against those members of the police force who he alleges are responsible for his being sent to and held in the prison in the first place. But his innocence has no bearing on the duty of prison officials to provide him with any particular standards of living conditions different from any other prisoners. As stated above, prison guards and officials can certainly have no way of knowing which of the prisoners sent them by the court are innocent. Mr. Buenrostro stands, in relation to the prison officials, in exactly the same position as any prisoner held in the State Penitentiary under thehave been easily obtained before or shortly after the arrest.
In Baker v. McCollan, 443 U.S. 137, 99 S.Ct. 2689, 61 L.Ed.2d 433 (1979) the Supreme Court handled a case of mistaken identity similar to this one. Linnie McCollan's brother, Leonard, had been arrested on a drug charge. At the time of the arrest, Leonard was carrying a copy of his innocent brother's driver's license, an exact replica in all respects, except that it carried a photo of Leonard instead of Linnie. Leonard was booked under Linnie's name and with all of Linnie's personal information as it appeared on the license. Later, when Leonard skipped bail, Linnie was arrested as the wanted person. He was held for three days, over the New Year's weekend, until a comparison of photos

Three fishing ships were going to be sunk. They were all from Vietnam," the Head of Information Office of the Indonesian Navy, First Admiral Manahan Simorangkir, was quoted as saying by local online media on Friday.Indonesian Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Pudjiastuti has promised she will personally witness the sinking of other foreign vessels in Batam, after the sinking of the Vietnamese ships."We have sunk


the number of naval ships and the amount of funds for the procurement of fuel for warships. It is useless to possess naval ships if they cannot be deployed due to shortages of fuel.Salim said he appreciated the move by the government, which has taken strong actions against foreign boats that poached fish in Indonesian waters. The government should not allow illegal fishing to occur in its waters, he said."Indonesia has regulated in its law the sinking of foreign ships. Foreign vessels can be sunk to offer a lesson when they fish illegally in Indonesian waters," Salim added.He noted that every country has laws and regulations which had to be abide by. The country of origin of the poachers cannot intervene in Indonesian law, he noted."If an Indonesiancitizen faces beheading in Saudi Arabia, for example, Indonesia cannot intervene. It cannot force Saudi Arabia to follow Indonesias law," Salim stated.The West-East Care Foundation (YPTB) also supported the governments move to explode foreign vessels that were illegally fishing in Indonesia waters."The governments move to sink the vessels is important. It is important to uphold the sovereignty of the Unitary State of Indonesia (NKRI) in all water territories of the country, including the East Timor Sea, based on the international affairs and on geological and geomorphology facts," said YPTB chairman Ferdi Tanoni.Former maritime and fisheries minister Freddy Numberi also said he appreciated the governments move."It is good for Indonesia to sink the ships and let the international world know it," said Freddy Numberi on Friday. Yet, he recalled


that the move should be taken in measured steps, among others, by explaining the sinkings transparently.Catch Fish Director General of the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Gellwynn Jusuf said Minister Susi Pudjiastuti had coordinated and discussed the actions with a number of neighboring countries.Minister Susi explained that representatives of various foreign countries she met with have supported her policy in cracking down on fish poaching in Indonesia waters.Further, support for the move has been voiced by various sides in Indonesia, such as businesses, the military and legislators.(*)take that plot and feature an underwater setting.

Clark Gabe stars as a World War II submarine captain out for revenge against the Japanese submarine that sunk his previous ship. The destruction based background of this film overrides the action, but Burt Lancaster stars as Gabe’s rival which makes an entertaining on-screen duo.

Carlsen wins World Championship after playoffs.

The 2016 World Championship Match ended today with Magnus Carlsen winning the playoffs 3-1 over Sergey Karjakin. The final two games of the playoffs were both won by Carlsen, after Karjakin blundered in time trouble in game 3, and rolling the dice in game 4, got mated with a nice queen sac.
While the final day had plenty of excitement, the match itself was fairly dull. A narrow choice of openings and strategy by both players resulted in fairly risk free chess, with Carlsen trying to convert small advantages, while Karjakin seemed happier to defend. Of course if Carlsen had converted some advantageous endgames earlier in the match Karjakin may have been forced to change his approach to stay afloat, but1. Technical Field
This disclosure relates to semiconductor fabrication and more particularly, to an improved method for releasing semiconductor wafers from a polish pad.
2. Description of the Related Art
Semiconductor processing includes polishing semiconductor wafers. Typically, semiconductor polishing includes chemical mechanical polishing or CMP. For polishing, semiconductor wafers are typically placed on a polishing pad. A platen supports the polishing pad during processing. The wafer is placed on the platen having the polishing pad disposed thereon using a mechanical carrier. The platen often provides rotation for polishing the wafer. In addition, the carrier rotates as well. During polishing, a slurry is introduced onto the polishing pad which includes abrasive materials, such as silicon dioxide particles as well as chemicals for etching the surface of the wafer to provide a polished


surface on the wafer. The polishing pad includes pores to carry the slurry and distribute the slurry over the wafer.
The slurry or slurries typically used have high viscosities. At the end of polishing, the carrier removes the wafer from the polishing pad to be cleaned or simply unloaded. The slurry viscosity can make the removal of the polishing pad from the wafer difficult since the slurry viscosity causes the polishing pad to stick to the wafer. If the wafer sticks to the polishing pad, this may result in dropping the wafer and cause damage to or even break the wafer. Further, the viscosity of the slurry may cause the wafer to remain in contact with the polishing pad while the carrier attempts to remove it. This may alsoEU Sanctions against Russia proposed

An Indian dentist who died after a miscarriage in an Irish hospital would probably be alive if a termination could have legally been carried out before there was a substantial risk to her life, an expert has said.

Obstetrician Dr Peter Boylan told an inquest that Savita Halappanavar
was ill enough by 6.30am on the morning of Wednesday October 24 to justify an abortion, but he believed a killer infection was already in her system.

"The real problem was the inability to terminate prior to Mrs Halappanavar developing a real or substantive risk to her life," the former master of the National Maternity Hospital said.

"By that time it was effectively too late to save her life," he said.

Mrs Halappanavar was 17 weeks pregnant when she was admitted to University Hospital Galwayon October 21 last year and died later from septicaemia and a rare strain of E coli, four days after she lost her baby.

Dr Boylan told Galway coroner Dr Ciaran MacLoughlin that, on the balance of probabilities, had a termination had been carried out on the Monday or Tuesday, when Mrs Halappanavar requested, she would have survived.

But he said this would not have been a "practical proposition" because of Irish law, which only allows abortion if there is a real and substantial risk to a woman's life, not health.

Elsewhere, the senior medic said there were deficiencies in Mrs Halappanavar's care.

While none on their own caused her death, Dr Boylan maintained that an accumulation of failings delayed appropriate treatment and each hour delay increased her chance of death by

OUTDOORS

July 25, 1993|By Nancy Noyes | Nancy Noyes,Contributing Writer

As the sun rose over the Patuxent River yesterday, fewer than a half dozen of the 191 starters in the 13-class fleet competing in the 13th Annual Solomons Island Race had crossed the line. What light air they had disappeared altogether, bringing fear to the host Eastport Yacht Club's race committee that 13 would be unlucky and mean one of the slowest races ever.

The wind eventually filled in again from the south after 9:30 a.m. and sped throngs of spinnakered racers into the Patuxent River and across the finish line near Solomons in bunches between 10 and 11 a.m.

First over the finish line in the 55-mile race from Annapolis, which began


Friday evening, was PHRF A-1 winner Jim Muldoon's Santa Cruz 70 Donnybrook, just before 3:30 a.m. Because of the long lags in time between Donnybrook's finish and that of the others in its class, Muldoon easily held his lead by a comfortable margin of more than 30 minutes corrected time over second-place finisher Jeff Klein and his team on Dragon Fly.

Although winners in many handicap classes moved into position corrected time, another team which got the gun and kept the win was Dave and Beth Scheidt and their crew on their J/24 AJ, who topped the PHRF C class by 10 minutes corrected time and 20 minutes elapsed.

"It was a beautiful night," Dave Scheidt said. "Light air on the nose [from the south] is not exactly painful forsix concerts in Gobe and Yokohama, Japan. As “self-made idols,” they will continue to work on new music and stay active throughout the year.

At the Shooting Range where she took refuge, she saw people so badly burned she couldn't tell if they were male or female. They begged for water before they died. Discriminated against as a "Korean" in Japan, she returned to Korea where she had a difficult time with language and cultural barriers. "We must not fight. We have to cooperate and help each other," she says.

【Life through Elementary School】
My parents had gone to Japan during the Taisho Period (1912-1926). I was very little when we moved to Hiroshima. Many people from Hapcheon had come to Hiroshima, lived together, and invited their siblings and relatives to follow them. Many Koreans from Hapcheongot her employer to hire me. I started work in September or October. The constant smell of rubber there gave me headaches. In time, I learned that Hiroshima Bus and Railway Service was recruiting workers. In March or April 1942, I took a test and was accepted. I worked for Hiroshima Bus and Railway Service until April 1944. I was a conductor on city buses. The city streetcar service normally hired only males as drivers and conductors. But by that time, most males had been pulled into the army; the labor shortage was severe, so females were hired as conductors. By around the end of 1944, females were driving streetcars as well. However, standing all day hurt my legs, so I quit that job in April 1944.

I worked


for the Volunteer Corps from July through November. Because of the acute labor shortage, we weren't allowed not to work. Eventually, anyone at home and not working was mobilized to work for the Volunteer Corps. Any man who had not signed up for military service was drafted. A lot of Koreans were drafted. After working for the Volunteer Corps from July to November 1944, I got married in December.

Enemy planes had been flying through our skies frequently before the atomic bombing. As soon as those planes invaded city space, air-raid sirens blared for a long time. Our family would prepare to escape to the air-raid shelter with our emergency bags. When the planes were gone, the all-clear siren would sound. Anticipating a bombing, we practiced drills like passingbuckets to put out fires. Women learned to apply bandages the way nurses do. Another drill was running to shelters wearing air-raid hoods. If my father had been alive, we would have left Hiroshima in the early stages of the war. My mother was busy going back and forth managing her business. We knew it was time to evacuate but we had no house to go to. About the time we were considering renting farmland from a Japanese person and building a house on it, the atomic bomb was dropped.

People cried and cried because they wanted their husbands and children to come back. We had survived, but we had nothing to eat. It was a living hell.

【Return to Korea】
We had no intention of going back to Korea. We were Japanese and had decided to stay in Japan. I didn't speak Korean well. My mother spoke it, so I knew a few Korean words, that was all. Basically, I spoke Japanese with a bit of Korean mixed in. There was a rumor that North Koreans would be killed by the Japanese if weBNP Paribas Wins “Rising Star Derivatives House Award” 2006

Memo belongs in my personal album since the days in which we were both ten years old. This is not him anymore, this is what he looked like in 1975, when he was all suave, sweet talking his way into all the girl's dormitories, whilst getting his degree in Architecture. Nowadays he is a grandfather, and he is still trying to sweet talk his way, albeit with much, much less success than thirty years ago.

In 1975 I went back to Cali for the first time after two years in Toronto, in the company of Margaret Thurlow, who was teaching me photography at the time.
The very next day while walking in the downtown area, trying to get my memories in place, I ran into one ofmy dearest friends on planet Earth, the writer Hernán Toro. We had one of the street photographers in Puente Ortiz take a picture of us in the company of Margaret. Hernán still lives in Cali where he teaches literature at Universidad del Valle.
The photographers in the bridge and the adjacent park disappeared many years ago.

Federal prosecutors allege Shoffner accepted $12,000 a year from a broker who would sometimes deliver cash in a pie box, with the pie included. They said the broker is cooperating with investigators.

"The allegations against Ms. Shoffner are serious and they completely erode the public trust that we put in our elected officials, if they prove to be true," U.S. Attorney Chris Thyer said at a news conference.

Outside the courthouse, Shoffner, 68, said she does not intend to resign. She was re-elected in 2010, and has faced inquiries over the past year about the way her office has handled state investments.

She didn't enter a plea Monday,he told reporters.

Lawmakers could hold impeachment proceedings to remove Shoffner from office if she doesn't resign, but legislative leaders stopped short of saying whether they'd consider it.

Shoffner was arrested at her home in Newport after the broker agreed to record the meeting and bring $6,000 in a pie box, according to the affidavit. FBI agents executed a search warrant and found the cash inside a cigarette package in Shoffner's kitchen.

"Shoffner admitted she knew it was wrong to accept the payments," the affidavit said.

Thyer said he did not know how much the state had invested with the broker, or how much commission the broker made from the bond transactions. Thyer said it wasn't an easy decision for prosecutors to grant immunity to the broker, who he wouldn't name.

"It was


a decision made out of necessity more than anything else," the U.S. attorney said. "At the core of this particular conspiracy as alleged in the affidavit there were two people, and if both of those two people remained silent we would not be here today."

The State Securities Department, which regulates brokers, said it would look into who made the payments to Shoffner and whether they were acting alone or on behalf of a firm.

"We're probably going to have to hunt this person down and we're going to do that," Securities Commissioner Heath Abshure said.

The CEO of St. Bernard Financial Services, the firm that legislative auditors said handled the bulk of bond investments by Shoffner's office, said he had not been contacted by the FBI.

Auditors said the office purchasedcomparatively unimportant. On the other hand, the Little II majority opinion seems to elevate this factor somewhat.

Seeing the large black Samsonite suitcase was a "critical factor" suggesting the presence of drugs because in Officer Candelaria's experience, this was the type of luggage often used by drug couriers.
In contrast, when Officer Candelaria knocked on Mr. Finnell's door, Mr. Finnell pulled aside the window curtain so that Officer Candelaria could see into the roomette before the door was opened.

The workshop was spotless and highly organized and the men from Rolls-Royce left so impressed that they decided that George should be allowed to continue to describe his motorcycles as “The Rolls-Royce of motorcycles” after all.

the issue of “illegal immigration” from Bangladesh has formed an important part of the public discourse of the Assamese-speaking Hindus of the Brahmaputra valley, it has become a paramount issue for the Bodo-speaking minority living in the areas that constituted the undivided Goalpara district. The Bodo-speaking minority, which accounts for only five per cent of the population, perceives a dual threat to their existence: a cultural challenge from the Assamese-speaking majority and a physical challenge from Bangladeshi Muslims who constitute the majority in Dhubri and whose presence is increasingly being felt in the Bodo heartland of Kokrajhar district.

The emergence of militant Bodo sub-nationalism in the 1990s was an attempt to cope with these twin challenges and led to the formation of the semi-autonomous Bodoland Territorial Council in 2003.However, much of the political gains from militant identity politics have been offset by the growing assertiveness of the Muslim community. The rise of the All India United Democratic Front led by Maulana Badruddin Ajmal, the All Assam Minority Students Union and the Asom Mia Parishad has triggered a frontal Bodo-Muslim confrontation. Tensions have further risen following the AIUDF demand that the BTC be abolished because Bodos no longer constitute a majority in large areas governed by it. In an astute move, Ajmal has taken care to develop links with major Muslim organizations throughout India to ensure that the concerns of his social base are easily translated into “national” Muslim concerns.

Confronted with this seemingly intractable situation, both Delhi and Dispur have fallen back on homilies. Following his tour


Wrestling one of three finalists for 2020 Olympics

Wrestling is still in the running for returning as an Olympic sport, the International Olympic Committee Executive Board announced in St. Petersburg, Russia Wednesday.

Wrestling, along with squash and a combined baseball-softball bid, are the three sports on a shortlist for consideration for one open spot for the 2020 Olympics.

These three sports will be presented for a final vote by the entire IOC General Assembly in its meeting in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on September 8.

A total of eight sports made their pitch to the IOC Executive Board in St. Petersburg. In addition to the three sports on the shortlist, others seeking a place on the Olympic roster include inline speed skating, karate, sport climbing, wakeboarding and wushu.

FILA, the international wrestling federation, madeits presentation to the IOC Executive Board today to make its case for inclusion in the Olympic Games. Making the presentation was an all-star group of wrestling leaders, including new FILA President Nenad Lalovic of Serbia and four past Olympic athletes, Jim Scherr of the United States, Carol Huynh of Canada, Daniel Igali of Nigeria and Canada and Lise Legrand of France.

Scherr, former University of Nebraska wrestler and Olympian who was a once the US Olympic Committee CEO, said of FILA’s presentation to the IOC, “We impressed the executive board. We were the first sport selected overwhelmingly by the executive board.”

According to ESPN, the IOC Executive Board voted by secret ballot over several rounds, with wrestling winning on the first round with eight of the 14 votes.

OF INTERNATIONAL SYSTEMS: FROM CASTLEREAGH TO CLIMATE CHANGE -

DOUGLAS HURD

In the last two centuries there have been three attempts to fashion a durable system in which the nations of the world might live together in peace. The first, at Vienna in 1814, is associated in Britain with the name of Castlereagh; it was conservative in tone and aimed at stability between the nations based on the status quo that had existed before Napoleon. It provided that in moments of crisis, the leading powers in Europe should meet 'the Concert of Europe'. The Vienna Settlement ignored the growing strength of nationalism, and came to grief when Metternich used it as a tool to support repression in the name of legitimacy, and when Bismarck gave secret andgone out of it. True, the world would be a poorer place without the UN, but successive efforts at reform have run onto the rocks.

Maybe in 1989 there was an opportunity for more sweeping change. In that year the Berlin Wall came down, the Soviet Union collapsed, and the United States alone survived as a superpower. Maybe, but only maybe, if the Americans had launched an effort then and led us all in the search for a better international system, they might have succeeded. George Bush senior was a good president, but as he said himself, he did not do 'the vision thing'. That was one of the moments when vision was needed  but the moment passed and the opportunity, if it ever existed, for making a


and the US have a powerful interest in keeping the peace. But the rivalry between them is real and growing, and we have often seen such rivalries overflow into something more serious, whether the weapons used are economic or military, or simply political.

And there are no valid institutions in place to keep the peace. Some of us thought that President Obama might be the man to take the initiative, as Woodrow Wilson did in 1918 and FDR in 1944; but he has been caught up in other difficulties from which he cannot easily escape. I see no alternative leadership in this search. Certainly the Chinese show no signs of putting themselves at the heart of such a project; they would treat suspiciously any attempt by the West andA brand-new theory of the opening moments during the Chernobyl disaster, the most severe nuclear accident in history, based on additional analysis is presented for the first time in the journal Nuclear Technology, an official journal of the American Nuclear Society.

The new theory suggests the first of the two explosions reported by eyewitnesses was a nuclear and not a steam explosion, as is currently widely thought and is presented by researchers from the Swedish Defence Research Agency, Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute, and Stockholm University.

They hypothesize that the first explosive event was a jet of debris ejected to very high altitudes by a series of nuclear explosions within the reactor. This was followed, within three seconds, by a steam explosion which ruptured the reactor and sent further debris


into the atmosphere at lower altitudes.

The theory is based on new analysis of xenon isotopes detected by scientists from the V.G. Khlopin Radium Institute in the Leningrad, four days after the accident, at Cherepovets, a city north of Moscow far from the major track of Chernobyl debris. These isotopes were the product of recent nuclear fission, suggesting they could be the result of a recent nuclear explosion. In contrast, the main Chernobyl debris which tracked northwest to Scandinavia contained equilibrium xenon isotopes from the reactor’s core.

By assessing the weather conditions across the region at the time, the authors also established that the fresh xenon isotopes at Cherepovets were the result of debris injected into far higher altitudes than the debris from the reactor rupture which drifted towards Scandinavia.

SOUTHAVEN, Miss. — An officer-involved shooting that fatally injured a man in Mississippi is under investigation after it is believed police went to the wrong address looking for a suspect.

Prosecutor John Champion said Monday that Southaven Police Department officers on Sunday were looking for a man in relation to an aggravated domestic violence case under investigation by another agency.

Officers may have gone to the wrong house, Champion said, adding that the man who died, an auto mechanic, had no warrants for his arrest.

"He was not wanted for anything at all," said Champion.

On Monday, Champion provided the following rough account of whathappened:

Two officers were at a Southaven, Miss., home about 11:30 p.m. Sunday and a pit bull dog burst out of the house, prompting one of the officers to shoot at it.

Then a man pointed a gun at officers through an open door, Champion said. The officers repeatedly warned him to put the gun down before one of them opened fire. Champion believed one officer shot at the dog, while the other shot at the man.

A gun was found at the scene, Champion said.

He said the incident was not recorded as Southaven police do not have body cameras.

The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation is reviewing the case, while Champion's office is reviewing the evidence for possible charges against the officers involved.

Washington:Mother with knife killed in Seattle officer-involved shooting

Although Champion didn't


identify the slain man, family friend, Jordan Castillo, 23, said the man was Ismael Lopez, 41.

Castillo said Lopez was a native of Veracruz, Mexico, who had lived in the U.S. for many years and formerly worked for the city of Bartlett, Tenn., and more recently operated a small mechanic's shop across the street from his home. He said Lopez was a father figure to him and mentored him when he was a troubled teenager.

Castillo said the slain man's wife was too upset to talk, but that she'd told him things that contradicted the official account. He said Lopez had two guns: a Glock pistol, which he usually kept in the bedroom, and a .22 caliber rifle, which he usually kept in the front room.

He said Lopez's wife toldhim that after the shooting, the rifle was in its usual spot.

Castillo said he couldn't imagine that Lopez would have come out aiming a gun at police. "It don't make sense at all," he said.

He said Lopez knew English and would not have misunderstood commands to put down a gun — but he said Lopez's wife said she didn't hear such commands.

"She said when he got up, she heard the footsteps all the way up to the door, she heard the doorknob turn, and then after the doorknob turned it was just gunshots from there."

A pit bull named Coco seemed docile around the small crowd of people, though it startled the visitors at


one point by bolting away. Castillo said Coco was chasing a squirrel.

On Tuesday, an attorney representing Lopez's family said his law firm would conduct its own investigation into the shooting.

During a news conference Tuesday, Murray Wells, of law firm Horne and Wells, said police searching for a suspect went to the wrong address.

"They should have never been on the property in the first place," he said.

Wells, contradicting Champion's earlier account, said Lopez, a gun owner, did not have a gun in his hand when he was shot.

Afghan security forces on Sunday ended a 12 hour siege that by securing Kabul’s Intercontinental Hotel in the capital after gunmen stormed and took control the evening before killing at least five civilians.

Six individuals were injured and three of the attackers killed, according to Afghanistan’s interior ministry.

The assault began at 9 p.m. local time on Saturday, with an Afghan intelligence agency official telling AFP news agency that the gunmen were “shooting at guests”.

It has been reported that the state-owned hotel popular for weddings, conferences and political meetings was holding an information technology conference at the time of the attack.

Mr. Danish said that the attackers appeared to include suicide bombers.

Kabul has increased its security dramatically following a truck bomb explosion that killed at least 150


individuals and more recently, an explosion at the Shai Tabayan cultural centre that killed at least 41 and injured 80 on Dec. 28 of last year.

Attacks have been attributed to the resurgent Taliban militant group, with the hotel attack appearing to have also been carried out by the same insurgents, but there has been no confirmation in regards to the allegiance or identity of the gunmen.

Local security forces previous were trading fire with the gunmen on the third and fourth floors of the hotel, according to another ministry spokesperson.

errors. Because we find merit in one of the three assigned errors, we affirm in part and reverse in part for the following reasons.

FACTS
On April 5, 1988, Katidre Jolivette, a seventh grade student at Anderson Middle School in New Iberia, slipped as she walked across the gym floor at the end of her third hour physical education class. Katidre was a member of Coach Richard Frederick's class, one of four classes assigned to the gym during that hour.
At the beginning of the third period, students from all four classes were instructed to sit in the bleachers for the entire hour while the janitors mopped the gym floor. Although the students were instructed not to cross the gym floor at the beginning of the hour, those instructions were notrepeated at the end of the hour. When the bell rang signalling the end of the third period, Katidre and approximately 40 other students walked across the gym floor to get to their next class. Katidre fell near the top of the basketball key, sustaining serious injuries to her right hip. Several students who were in the gym at that time testified that the floor was still damp from the recent mopping, although no obvious puddles of water were present.
Katidre sustained a slipped capital femoral epiphysis, with vascular necrosis. Katidre could not walk on her own for approximately one year after the accident, and she had to have a private tutor to finish the school year.
The trial court concluded that Katidre's fall was caused by the dampness of


the floor. He found the School Board was responsible in part for Katidre's injuries because the janitors should not have been mopping the gym during the physical education class and because one instruction at the beginning of the hour was inadequate. He also found Katidre was 50% at fault in causing her injuries because she crossed the gym floor when she had been instructed not to do so. The trial court awarded the following damages, subject to a reduction of 50% for Katidre's fault:

Pain and sufferingpast,
  present and future             $250,000.00
Past medical expenses              15,318.22
Future medical expenses       a child of her age, intelligence and experience under the circumstances presented. Howard v. Allstate Insurance Co., 520 So.2d 715 (La.1988).
The trial court correctly concluded that the school officials should not have permitted the janitors to mop the gym floor during the third hour when four P.E. classes were scheduled to use the gym. The accident occurred on the Tuesday after Easter, the first day the students had returned to class from the holidays. The judge saw no reason, and the School Board offered no explanation, as to why the mopping was not done on the Monday before the students returned.
The trial court was also correct in finding that one instruction at the beginning of the class period was insufficient to keep the seventh and eighth graders from


crossing the gym floor when it was time for them to go to the next class. Although the school had a policy against students crossing the gym floor in street shoes, the record suggests this rule was not strictly enforced. Coach Richard Frederick testified that the students were told this rule at the beginning of the school year, and the teachers enforced it as best they could. However, he stated that students frequently crossed the gym to get to the cafeteria or to other classes. Katidre said she crossed the gym daily to get to her classes.
The trial court apparently recognized that the seventh and eighth graders needed more supervision than was given on the day of Katidre's accident. He stated in his reasons for judgment:
But we couldwe find Katidre's actions only minimally contributed to her accident.
The record does not support a finding that Katidre proceeded with an awareness of danger. Katidre admitted she saw the janitors mopping the gym floor during the class period; however, the janitors had left before the class was dismissed. There were no obvious puddles of water on the floor. When the bell rang, Katidre and the other students crossed the gym floor as they had done many times in the past. No one directed the students to stay on the sidelines. Katidre was only guilty of inadvertently disregarding the one instruction that we have already deemed insufficient. The school officials were clearly the superior actors in creating the hazardous situation and in failing to adequately supervise the children. Any


one to pin the growth plate back into place and another to remove the pin when the separation healed. Dr. Douglas McKay, a specialist in pediatric orthopedics, testified that there is a 75% chance that Katidre will need more than one surgical procedure in the future. The most hopeful treatment would be an osteotomy, which is the cutting and reshaping of the bone. A second option is a fusion, which would stabilize Katidre's condition, but would also result in further restriction of movement. The final choice, a total hip replacement, would not last Katidre's entire lifetime. Because of Katidre's age, Dr. McKay could not state which procedure or procedures would be required.

Six members of the current board, including editor-in-chief Gerhard Meisenberg, spoke at both the 2015 and 2016 conferences, while a further 16 LCI speakers have written for the journal in recent years. In total, 82% of those who spoke at both 2015 and 2016 conferences are directly associated with either UISR or Mankind Quarterly.

The UISR is bankrolled by Lynn and Meisenberg’s Pioneer Fund, a Southern Poverty Law Centre-listed hate group founded by Nazi sympathisers with the purpose of promoting “racial betterment”.

Beneficiaries of the fund include a magazine devoted to a “penetrating inquiry into every aspect of the Jewish Question,” and Jared Taylor’s American Renaissance, whose conferences have hosted prominent far-right figures RichardSpencer (an white supremancist who gained prominence after Trump’s election), Nick Griffin (ex-leader of the British National Party), and David Duke (another white supremacist, and former Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan).

Helmuth Nyborg, a member of the UISR Academic Advisory Council, gave a lecture at last year’s American Renaissance conference which argued that Denmark’s gene pool would suffer from immigration from the Middle East.

In an alternative embodiment, the AC-DC converter includes the same power conversion unit and low pass filter as the converter described above but with a modified input pulse generator system. The modified input pulse generator system preferably includes a first, second, third, and fourth n-channel MOSFET arranged in a full bridge configuration, where the drains of the first and third MOSFET are connected to each other and to ground, the sources of the same MOSFETs are connected to the drains of the second and fourth MOSFET respectively, and the sources of the second and fourth MOSFETs are connected to a DC voltage source and a DC blocking capacitor. The DC blocking capacitor is also connected toa first and second power conversion unit, where the first and second primary winding of the first and second power conversion unit each connect to the DC blocking capacitor on one prong and to the sources of the first and third MOSFET respectively on the other prong. Preferably, a first, second, third, and fourth pulse generator are connected to the gate of the first, second, third, and fourth MOSFET respectively. The first and second pulse generators output square pulses to alternately switch the first and second MOSFETs on; that is, either the first or the second MOSFET is switched on, but never at the same time. A brief period during which both MOSFETs are switched off is inserted in between alternately switching of the MOSFETs to prevent connecting


the DC voltage source to ground. By alternately switching the first and second MOSFET on, the first primary winding is alternately connected to the DC voltage source and ground, generating a signal across the winding.
The third and fourth pulse generators output the same signals as the first and second pulse generators respectively but phase-shifted by 180 degrees. This generates a signal across the second primary winding that is the same signal as that across the first primary winding but phase-shifted by 180 degrees. The signals across the first and second primary winding preferably stay high longer than they are low, so that the two signals overlap while they are high and at least one signal is high at any one moment.

I reached out to prebook a session with Jessica about a week in advance after seeing that she was coming to the city. Screening and communication were a breeze. I showed up on time at her upscale hotel and was greeted at the door by a stunningly gorgeous blonde. Non-VIPs, her pictures barely do her justice. Stunning.The biggest stars from the worlds of sports and entertainment gathered at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on Wednesday night to celebrate the best sports moments of the year at The 2016 ESPYS Presented by Capital One. The show was hosted by WWE Superstar John Cena and aired on ABC.

LeBron James took home his third Best Male Athlete ESPY and his fifth Best NBA Player ESPY, having not won either since 2013, as well as his third Best Championship Performance win. James also shared the Best Team award and Best Moment award with his fellow Cavaliers, who upset the Warriors to earn their first-ever NBA title, and Cleveland’s first in 52 years.

After a third-straight nomination, University of Connecticut’s women’s basketball’s departing star, Breanna Stewart, finally secured a


Best Female Athlete title. She topped stiff competition from WNBA MVP Elena Delle Donne, record-breaking swimmer Katie Ledecky, and world-leading gymnast Simone Biles.

The Chicago Cubs’ Jake Arrieta earned Best Breakthrough Athlete honors, becoming the first baseball player to take home that award since Alfonso Soriano in 2003. Additionally, best Record-Breaking Performance went to Stephen Curry, whose 402 regular season 3-pointers shattered the single-season record Curry had set himself the previous season.

Three awards served as the emotional pinnacle of the sports celebration. Vice President Joe Biden presented Craig Sager with the Jimmy V Award for Perseverance, which is presented annually in honor of the late Jim Valvano and his V Foundation for Cancer Research. Sager was recognized for his unwavering strength and determination in his fight against cancer. ZaevionDobson, a young man from Knoxville, TN, was honored posthumously with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award for selflessly giving his life to shield two young women from gunfire.

Best Female Athlete:municipal court began to use a "transaction journal" instead of the receipt books. Defendant instructed his officers, however, to continue using the receipt books when accepting fines or other payments in the clerk's absence, thereby creating two sets of books. Defendant explained that because his officers did not understand the new system they frequently made mistakes in the transaction journal. Using the receipt books, he explained, eliminated this problem because the clerk would enter the payments in the transaction journal when she returned to the station. McFarland testified, however, that defendant told her also to use the receipt books.
Beginning in 1971, unexplained cash shortages began to appear in the court's account. Lindberg testified that when she first reported a cash shortage to defendant, he told her he suspected


a particular police officer was responsible and instructed her to hold back receipts until the next month to cover the shortage. Lindberg testified that shortages continued and that finally defendant instructed her to write false refund receipts to cover the missing funds. McFarland also testified that defendant instructed her to falsify records to conceal continuing cash shortages. She further testified that defendant told her to place court funds in his office overnight for safekeeping. Mason testified that shortages continued during the time she was turning over court funds to defendant. Defendant denied instructing any of the clerks to falsify records.
In 1978 defendant learned that the State Auditor would be coming to examine the court's books. Defendant asked Mason to determine exactly how much money was currently missing. Uponto accomplish that cover-up by falsifying the records. As a result, the city officials, the mayor, the city clerk, the state officers, the auditors, and the public were not aware of the thefts during this period of time.
"The three methods of falsification of the records or concealing the fact that the money is missing are as follows: ...
"...
"The third method employed to conceal shortages of money was to deposit large sums of cash equaling a shortage whenever the state auditor arrived to do an audit. In other words, if you're $2000 short of cash and the auditor is there, cover it up by taking $2000 of your own money and putting it in and nobody will know there is a cash shortage, falsify the books in that manner.

Interests

He is a comparative literary historian with interests especially in ancient and medieval Latin poetry, though he also works in prose (Augustine, Alcuin, Anselm, Abelard). He has investigated the phenomenon of allusion in Western tradition and has forthcoming a book, Reading Virgil at Cassiciacum that studies Augustine's dialogues as statement on the ways to read pagan literature. This book is the first of three books focusing on Augustine's Christian humanism. The second volume, now complete in draft, is entitled Revisiting Virgil: Augustine and the Aeneid from Cassiciacum to the Confessions. It examines in light of the dialogues Augustine's complicated engagement of classical Rome's greatest poem. The third volume, currently under review, is entitled Recuperating Virgil: Reading the Auctores in Augustine's Confessions. It


examines Augustine's classical borrowings in the autobiographical portion of the Confessions. His translation of the personal poetry of Venantius Fortunatus was published in 2010 as Venantius Fortunatus: Poems to Friends, A Translation with Introduction and Commentary.

Stuart Tinney

Stuart Brian Tinney, OAM (born 7 December 1964 in Mundubbera) is an Olympic-level equestrian rider, who competes for Australia. He won a team gold medal at the 2000 Summer Olympics, a team bronze medal at the 2016 Summer Olympics, and also competed at the 2004 Summer Olympics.

Tinney competed at four World Equestrian Games (in 1998, 2002, 2010 and 2014). He finished 4th in the team eventing competition at the 2002 World Games. His best individual placement is 8th place from 2010.

In 2008, Tinney competed in Europe in an attempt to make selection for the Beijing Olympics, but did not make the Australian team. In 2009, Tinney won the Olympic level CCI**** class at the Australian International 3 day event with Vettori. He also came 7th with Arithat year and headed west to several points in Illinois, including some very near Monmouth, where he helped organize the South Henderson United Presbyterian Church. Part of the diary is written as though it were a report back to his church, but Blaikie also interjected his personal views on issues related to the Presbyterian church at the time and also on one of the nation’s biggest issues of that era – slavery.

Blaikie eventually settled in Boston and was a key figure there, founding a church. He sent one of his sons to nearby Harvard, but another, Thomas, attended Monmouth in 1863.

“What was that all about?” wondered Witzig. “What was his connection to Monmouth? Perhaps, since he spent time in Ohio, he knew the Wallaces (and MC’s first president,


Pahel, and they noticed a considerable improvement in their performance.

“Our goal is to produce a free, interactive CD of children’s music,” said Frazier, who was listed as one of the writers of the song “Seasons,” which the group performed for the SOFIA audience. The catchy tune guided listeners through winter, spring, summer and fall and back to winter again, through the point of view of a snowman.

Speaking of cold, a group of physics students has been working with really chilly temperatures in its project, which is being directed by assistant professor Ashwani Kumar. To reach the minus 288.67 degrees Fahrenheit reading required for part of their research, Kumar and the students took a field trip to Purdue University.

While some researchers focus on physical reactions to extreme cold, Kumarintroduced, Dan and Gord saw an enormous market opportunity to start a company centered around their own message-passing OS - now known as QNX.

In the first phase of the company's history, Dan and Gord concentrated on RTOS technology that could enable standard PC hardware to work in factory robots, medical instruments, communication systems--virtually any application where reliability and performance were the key factors. In fact, QNX was the first PC OS to use microkernel architecture (1981), to support a hard disk (1982), to run in protected mode, to provide network-transparent distributed processing (1984), to provide built-in network fault-tolerance (1992), and to support a microkernel windowing system (1994). Not surprisingly, QNX became widely recognized, even among its competitors, as the leading RTOS for the PC/x86 platforms.

SPAIN NEED FORWARD THINKING

THE SPAIN PERSPECTIVE

“Spain were not at their brilliant best on Thursday. Jordi Alba and Alvaro Arbeloa struggled in the full-back positions, while even Xavi looked off the pace at times. It was the three forwards, however, who left the biggest doubts.

"Vicente del Bosque sprang a surprise by starting David Silva and Fernando Torres alongside the recently prolific Pedro in attack. And it didn't work. Torres' finishing was poor, Silva's influence was minimal and Pedro had one of his forgettable forays.

"Jesus Navas gave Spain more dynamism and stretched the Italian defence, while Cesc Fabregas (probably unfit after suffering an injury against Nigeria) and David Villa were left on the bench. Likewise Roberto Soldado, who has not grabbed his chance in this competition. Indeed, laRoja ended up with Javi Martinez as a false nine and Gerard Pique surging forwards. That is not and cannot be the plan.

"A year before the World Cup, then, and there may be places up for grabs. Alvaro Negredo, Isco, Thiago, even Cristian Tello will have been interesting observers on Thursday. For all their fantastic football, Spain lack some sparkle in attack - and those players have a year to prove they merit a place at Brazil's bigger summer showpiece in 2014.”

- Ben Hayward | Spain Expert

Giorgio Chiellini was instrumental in Italy rediscovering their defensive solidity, giving a masterclass on the left-hand side of three-man defence as he completely nullified the threat posed by Pedro.

Daniele De Rossi proved just as influential, though, the outstanding player on show in


Barcelona full-back's sole concern for large tracts of the game was keeping Giaccherini under control. He struggled in that regard, with Giaccherini setting up the equally effective Christian Maggio for the best opening of the game, before later crashing a snap-shot against the post.

Giaccherini would have made for a worthy matchwinner, as he has typified Italy's adventurous approach in this most open of tournaments. However, Antonio Candreva produced the most intrepid performance of the evening. The Lazio winger was involved in a lot of Italy's best attacking moves and never once turned down an opportunity to run at the Spanish defence. His stamina was also astounding, Candreva earning his side a free kick in a dangerous position in the second period of extra time with a fine rundown the flank.

The highlight of this coming-of-age performance, though, was his penalty. That he accepted the responsibility of taking the first spot kick in a semi-final shootout against the reigning world and European champions was impressive enough.

However, his penalty was just ridiculously bold, the 26-year-old electing to take a leaf out of Andrea Pirlo's book by nonchalantly chipping the ball over the legs of an already committed Iker Casillas. It was an fittingly fearless penalty at the end of a fantastically fearless display.

Admittedly, the lack of a capable replacement for Mario Balotelli remains a major concern. From an Italian perspective, Stephan El Shaarawy, who didn't see a minute of action, was the only real loser on the night - but the Azzurri at least now know that they

Mzembi said the National Tourism Master Plan would work as a guide in product development and diversification, infrastructural and manpower development, community participation and preservation of nature, culture and heritage. If fully implemented the plan would result in the rapid growth and success of the sector within the context of increasing tourist arrivals and income.

The minister added that the National Tourism Master Plan goes beyond identifying the traditional tourism sites to other zones with the potential for tourism development across the ten provinces of the country.

"Ukraine's official representatives...as well as those of several Western countries, the United States in particular, have essentially expressed solidarity with the opinion of radical nationalists in the Verkhovna Rada (parliament) and have begun to distort the contents of the Minsk agreements," the foreign ministry said in a statement.

The accord was reached Thursday after marathon negotiations by the Russian, French and Ukrainian presidents and the German chancellor.

Kiev and the West are "putting in doubt the implementation of the document's concrete measures" officially backed by Russia's Vladimir Putin, France's Francois Hollande, Ukraine's Petro Poroshenko and Germany's Angela


Merkel, the statement said.

While the representatives from the eastern Ukrainian separatist regions of Donetsk and Lugansk "are showing their responsible attitude towards their commitments, the statements made by Ukrainian politicians in Kiev raise doubts," Moscow said.

"We reaffirm that the principal message of the Minsk accords is that it is necessary to end the fighting, to withdraw heavy weapons and to start a real constitutional reform in Ukraine," the statement said.

Russia wants "all the signatories of Thursday's Minsk accord" -- Kiev, the pro-Russian rebels, and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe -- "as well as the parties that supported the process, including Germany and France, to do everything possible to assure that this accord is strictly respected."

Despite the increasingly important role of pharmacies in the implementation of naloxone access laws, there is limited information on the impact of such laws, including statewide standing orders, at the local level. We conducted a telephone survey of all pharmacies in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, between February and August 2017 to examine the availability and out-of-pocket cost of naloxone nasal spray. We were interested in the availability both with and without a prescription from a licensed prescriber, and we examined the association between availability and pharmacy and neighborhood characteristics in Philadelphia. We hypothesized that naloxone was more likely to be available in neighborhoods with elevated rates of opioid overdose death (OOD) and that independent pharmacies would be

Bill Clinton blasted 'greedy' investors and singled out hedge funders and billionaires, though he's got a few in his Rolodex - especially his son-in-law

Hedge fund at home: Marc Mezvisnky, Chelsea Clinton's husband, is a hedge fund manager

'If you really wanna do something to reduce inequality in America, you've got to reduce the power of the hedge funds and the billionaires to drive all the profits of corporations only to shareholders and the top management, he told a crowd of about 500 who packed a hot room, which sets next to an empty store in a strip mall north of downtown located near pawn shops, mattress stores, and a lingerie video boutique.'

It's the kind of language usually


associated with Sanders' political 'revolution.'

The former president lauded every company 'that has a strategy to make money over five and eight years instead of every year so some greedy shareholder can get their money out in a year in a day.'

Among hedge fund honchos backing Hillary Clinton's campaign are Paul Tudor Jones of Tudor Investment Corp., Jamie Dinan of York Capital, and Neil Chriss of Hutchin Hill Capital, Bloomberg News reported last year.

But closest to home of all is the Clintons' son-in-law Marc Mezvinsky - who is a hedge fund manager.

Unusually he appeared with the entire family on stage in New York last week to celebrate his mother-in-law's victory.

He and Chelsea live in New York in an apartment which they bought for more than $10 million.

Mezvinsky helped foundhedge fund Eaglevale Partners by recruiting investors in 2011 following a stint at Goldman Sachs – the firm Sanders regularly brings up because of the paid speeches Hillary Clinton gave to the well-connected investment firm.

According to a March New York Times report, tens of millions worth of investments in Eaglevale came from people closely connected to the Clintons.

Among them were Goldman CEO Lloyd Blankfein, who became a billionaire last year according to Bloomberg, and hedge funder Marc Lasry, who cofounded Avenue Capital and sits on Forbes Magazine’s list of billionaires.

Mezvinsky’s hedge fund has about $3 trillion in assets – but made at least one bad bet when it bought up Greek debt and bank stocks.

But the options “are still less harmful than payday borrowing,” the CRL report said.

The report concludes by asserting that the experience in “payday-free states” has benefited millions of consumers, and calls for federal regulation to cap payday loan rates nationwide.

That is not going to happen during the Trump administration. As part of his corrupt jihad against the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney, also the hostile acting director of the CFBP, has dropped several cases against payday lenders.

And under the “Protecting Consumers’ Access to Credit Act,” the Trump administration and congressional Republicans even hope to change federal law to effectively override states that have outlawed usurious payday

The Leader of Opposition was also repeatedly admonished by Speaker Kodela Sivaprasada Rao over his behaviour in the House.

Speaking on the motion of thanks to the Governor’s address, Jagan tried to corner the TDP-BJP administration on different issues, like the “failure” to secure special category state status for Andhra Pradesh, special financial assistance and Polavaram irrigation project, among others.

He also sought to put the government in the dock over the land deals in the state capital region Amaravati in which some ministers, MPs, MLAs and other leaders of TDP have allegedly purchased huge tracts of land.

Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu himself intervened and demanded Jagan prove his allegations right on the floor of the House.

The etiology of the disease is unknown, with genetic, autoimmune, infectious, and environmental factors being implicated. Achalasia, usually diagnosed between 20 and 40 years or after 60 years of age, is the most common primary esophageal motor disorder; it is second only to gastroesophageal reflux disease as the most common functional esophageal disorder to require surgical intervention. The first account of a successfully treated case of achalasia was described by Thomas Willis in 1674, in which a whale bone was used to forcibly dilate the cardia.
