if there was interest in brokering a meeting with Putin.

The meeting never happened. But the discussion about it between Trump and Cohen, outlined in a footnote in the special counsel’s court filing, appears to show evidence of the earliest known instance of Trump, as a presidential candidate, expressing interest privately in arranging a sit-down with the Russian leader.

Mueller’s team did not divulge many details of its conversations with Cohen on Russia. But through references to efforts to set up a Trump-Putin meeting in 2015; the conversations between the Trump Organization and Russian government officials about a proposed project in Moscow that lasted well into the 2016 election; and other contacts between the Trump campaign and Russia, special counsel prosecutors laid out evidence that could suggest they are buildingprosecutors in the New York investigation implicated Trump directly in a crime: making illegal payments to two women during the 2016 election to prevent them from going public with stories of alleged affairs.

The scheme was well known before Friday’s court filing. Cohen orchestrated payments of more than $100,000 apiece to Karen McDougal, a one-time Playboy bunny, and Stephanie Clifford, an adult film star known as Stormy Daniels, in exchange for their silence near the end of the election about their alleged affairs with Trump. The payments, which were intended to influence the outcome of the election by helping Trump avoid embarrassing scandals, violated campaign finance laws that set limits on individual and corporate campaign contributions.

Cohen admitted that he “acted in coordination with and at the direction of” Trump


in making both payments.

It was previously known that Trump was aware of the payments, which were funneled to the women through shell companies created by Cohen in the final months of the election. Trump acknowledged in May that he authorized Cohen to pay off Daniels, though the president denied having ever had a sexual encounter with her. Two months later, in July, CNN published a secret audio recording Cohen made of a meeting with Trump in which the two discussed the payment to McDougal.

But up until Friday, federal prosecutors had not yet linked Trump directly to the illegal payments. That changed with the court filing by prosecutors for the Southern District of New York.

Cohen admitted that he “acted in coordination with and at the direction of” Trump inbigger problem than demolition of worthless vacant lots.

And in all but two of these ten regions (all excepting Boston and Washington) the central city is more populous than in 1970. In these regions, there’s enough growth for city and suburb alike. Although some of these regions experienced regional population growth of 0-10 percent, not one of them shrunk, and two (Houston and Austin) grew by over 20 percent.

By contrast, Cox lists ten low-congestion regions: Indianapolis, Oklahoma City, Salt Lake City, St. Louis, Richmond, Kansas City, Memphis, Buffalo, Rochester, and Cleveland. A few of these (most notably Indianapolis, Oklahoma City and Salt Lake City) are doing reasonably well. But five of the central cities in Cox's "hero metros" lost population in the 2000s (Buffalo, Rochester, Cleveland, St. Louis, and


as well as dangerous criminals. I was able to find data for auto-related fatalities for sixteen of the twenty cities in Cox's two "top ten" lists; the high-congestion cities averaged 4.7 traffic deaths per 100,000 residents in 2011, while the low-congestion cities averaged 9.8. To put the matter another way, the most dangerous of the high-congestion cities (Houston) had 9.1 traffic deaths per 100,000 people, while five of nine low-congestion cities had more traffic deaths per capita than Houston. The second most dangerous high-congestion city (Austin, clocking in at 6.4 deaths per 100,000) had a lower fatality rate than all but one of the low-congestion cities.*** The least dangerous of the low-congestion cities, Rochester, New York had a higher traffic death rate than five of the seven high-congestionfighting terrorism. "How is this a victory for traditional law enforcement?" demanded John Yoo, the UC Berkeley law professor who wrote the legal opinions known as the "torture memos" in the George W. Bush administration. "Law enforcement alone means the nation lies vulnerable to attacks on soft targets and must expend enormous resources to catch the killers afterwards. A preemptive strategy based on intelligence and the use of force overseas seeks to prevent such attacks further from our shores. That option should be preferred by everyone compared to what we've seen in Boston these last five days."

Professor Yoo must not have noticed the thousands of drone strikes President Obama has ordered against suspected terrorists in Pakistan and Yemen. Whatever the deficiencies of Obama's counter-terrorism policy, "law enforcement alone"


doesn't come close to describing it.

From the far reaches of the left came an equally disconnected complaint: The Boston bombings, Princeton University's Richard Falk suggested, were a form of "resistance" to what he called "the American global domination project." Never mind that neither Tsarnaev brother had any known views on U.S. foreign policy at all.

In Congress, members took Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's arrest as an opportunity to rehash a debate over whether alleged terrorists should be held as civilians or detained as "enemy combatants" under the laws of war.

Several Republicans, led by Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, denounced the administration for failing to put Tsarnaev in military detention — even though, under a law Graham supported, that measure is reserved for members of Al Qaeda, the Afghan Taliban ornot possibly be capable of a massive campaign to stop or slow down the rise of holistic medicine, let’s take a look back at the beginning of what Americans see as “traditional western medicine.”

In the early years of the American empire, when there was still a free market in the medical field, there were many thriving homeopathic hospitals and medical colleges. Over a century ago the Carnegie and Rockefeller foundations decided to engineer the medical curriculum through their grants and donations to the many different medical schools they deemed could be profitable for their associated businesses. As they have done with most facets of American society, they decided that they would reform medical education in America to suit their financial desires. There were many different types of medical


schools from homeopathic and herbal, to what we know today as modern western medicine. The Rockefeller and Carnegie foundations sought to patent the petrochemical medical education as the sole practice in the United States. The natural health colleges were not pushing enough chemical drugs, and those drugs were primarily owned by the Carnegies and the Rockefellers.

So out came the authorized preordained Flexner Report, funded by the two foundations, that called on American medical schools to enact higher admission and graduation standards, and in so many words, stated that it was far too easy to open a medical school. This report was used to shift from holistic to pharmaceutical practice. The American Medical Association, who were evaluating the various medical colleges, made it their job to target and shutdown the larger more respected homeopathic medical colleges. Carnegie and Rockefeller began to immediately shower hundreds of millions of dollars on the medical schools that focused on teaching drug intensive medicine.

Carnegie and Rockefeller made sure they had their own staff appointed to high positions on the board of directors of these schools. They made sure these schools were teaching the curriculum they dictated or they would not “donate” the millions that the schools so obviously wanted. Over time they began to fill these boards with members who were literally on the payroll. Once they had entire control of the board, the curriculum of these schools began to swing completely in the sole direction of pharmaceutical drugs which were exclusively sold by Carnegie and Rockefeller, and it has remained


that way ever since.

Predictably, the schools that had the funding of these foundations turned out the “recognized” doctors that were taught to push pharmaceutical drugs instead of holistic treatments, even if the holistic treatment could work better, or would cost less. By 1925, 10,000 herbalists were out of business, and by 1940 over 1500 chiropractors were prosecuted for practicing quackery. The 22 homeopathic medical schools that flourished in the 1900s dwindled down to just two by 1923, and by 1950 all the schools teaching homeopathy were closed. In the end if a doctor did not graduate from a Flexner approved medical school, he or she could not find a job. Most doctors today do not even realize they are lap dogs of the pharmaceutical industry.

Differential Experience With Men's and Women's Health Care Visits Between Male and Female Family Medicine Residents.
Few studies have addressed whether male family medicine residents have more exposure to men's health issues than their female colleagues. Additionally, the association between panel demographics or continuity of care and the differential experience with gender-specific health care is unclear. Between July 1, 2011, and June 30, 2014, all residents in the family medicine program had their gender, the number of women's and men's health care visits, the total number of male and female visits, and the number of visits with patients assigned to their primary care panel recorded each academic year. To determine which visits pertained to men's or women's health care, Clinical Classification Software developed by the Agency for Healthcare ResearchWhat started out as a computer game publicity stunt four years ago has quickly become one of the largest professional gamer competitions in the world, this year selling out tickets to a 12,000-seat arena in less then one hour and rewarding nearly $11 million in prize money.

The grand finals for The International, an annual Dota 2 championship hosted by game creator Valve Corporation, kicks off this week in Seattle and is set to deliver the largest prize pool in eSports history.

"For almost all of these things, like The International or a specific feature in the game, it's hard to figure out who came up with it," said Valve's Erik Johnson. "I'm sure it was in a meeting."

In Dota 2, like most strategy games in the popular multiplayer online


battle area genre, two teams of five player-controlled characters battle to destroy the opposing team's base with the help of a stream of computer-controlled underlings. Because of the complex nature of the computer game, Valve decided they needed a special way to show off the title to the public for its first outing at the 2011 Gamescom video game convention in Cologne, Germany.

"The problem with Dota 2 is that it doesn't lend itself well to a canned experience or just letting someone play it," Johnson said.

So the developer decided to host a invitation-only tournament at the show to let people see what it would look like for professionals to play their game. The company invited some of the best teams in the genre to The International and giveand OWI were the same in 2011.

La-PPISCH are a Japanese rock band that have been active since 1983. La-PPISCH's earlier material consisted of a straight
forward ska style, but, around the turn of the 1990's, the group adopted a more broader style that managed to cover the
horizons of alternative, funk, hardcore punk, psychedelic, among others. The group split in 2005, but reunited in 2007.Another 25th June. And another attainment of high moral ground by Modi Government against the 1975 national emergency. Next year, the Government would attempt to scale a new height on this issue.

The pitch of official campaign against the Emergency is becoming sharper year after year. This is a great escape for the Government from its Emergency obligations, which have been meticulously articulated by two separate commissions on Centre-State relations and by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, chief architect of Indian Constitution.

Emergency-bashers would never recall observations of these three great entities while referring to Shah Commission on highly exaggerated ‘emergency excesses’.

It is thus perfect time to tell the truth that the Government has buried under the carpet to humiliate the Congress Party year after year. Politics is legitimate. But playing politics


that endangers the very existence of the country should be exposed and shunned.

Before elaborating what the Modi Government does not disclose on the Emergency, consider the Government propaganda.

The Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in his monthly sermon Mann Ki Baat, observed: “1975 – 25th June – it was a dark night that no devotee of democracy can ever forget. No Indian can ever forget. The country had virtually become a prison. The voice of the opposition had been smothered. Several prominent leaders including Jai Prakash Narayan had been jailed.”

He continued: “The judicial system too could not escape the sinister shadows of the Emergency. The press was completely muffled. The present-day students of journalism and the champions of democracy have been endeavouring towards raising awareness about that dark period, bythus important to recall what Sarkaria Commission (SC) and Punchhi Commission (PC) had stated on the Emergency provisions of the Constitution. The failure to act on their recommendations on this count speaks volumes about populist leaders’ commitment to long-term interest of Bharat.

Indira Gandhi Government had constituted Sarkaria Commission on Centre-State relations under chairmanship of Justice R.S. Sarkaria in June 1983. This happened after public voted her back to power following crass failure of anti-Emergency Janata Government.

SC submitted its report in January 1988 after conducting several studies and after holding discussions with different stakeholders. In its chapter on emergency provisions of the Indian constitution, SC noted: “The framers of the Constitution were conscious that, in a country of sub-continental dimensions, immense diversities, socio-economic disparities and ‘multitudinous people, with possibly


of the State. Intervention and aid by the Union will be necessary. A duty has, therefore, been imposed by the Constitution on the Union to protect every State against external aggression and internal disturbance”.

The key words in this quote are ‘divided loyalties’. The glaring examples of this are separatist movement based on loyalty to Pakistan and Radical version of Islam in Kashmir, Gorkhaland agitation in West Bengal and Caste reservation arson in certain States.

India is a land of fragile unity amidst divided loyalties towards religion, region, caste and language. Unity in diversity is like glass that gets shattered time and again by communal and caste violence.

Even in countries where divided loyalties are not as vast and deep-rooted as in India, their respective constitution provides for imposition of emergencyunder different circumstances. And in those nations including the United States and Australia, the Government does not generate negativism about emergency.

See how France declared national emergency (which is still continuing) after terrorists' attack in Paris during November 2015. India, on the other hand, remained unmoved even after Pak-sponsored terrorists attack on Mumbai in 2008, which was preceded by attack on Parliament in 2001. And status quo has continued under Modi Government in spite of Pak-masterminded attacks on Indian defense establishments. The Government thinks it is more important to play politics on Emergency than imposing Emergency to minimize deaths of jawans, cops and civilians.

The Union Government has rendered emergency provisions of the Constitution (spread over nine articles) as useless script except one provision that is prone to political abuse


Article 352 or 356, but nevertheless, calls for other action by the Union pursuant to the first part of Article 355.

(d) A situation where the financial stability or credit of India or any part thereof is threatened enabling the Union to give suitable directions (Article 360).

The seventies witnessed imposition of double emergency under Article 352. First one was declared in December 1971 due to external aggression, which led to emergence of East Pakistan as a new nation (Bangladesh). Even as this external emergency continued, Mrs. Gandhi imposed 2nd one due to internal disturbances on 25th June 1975. This coincided with Allahbad High Court’s conditional verdict, setting aside her election to Lok Sabha, the Opposition has dubbed it as abuse of article 352.

What the Opposition does not disclose isThalotia beluchistana

Thalotia beluchistana is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Trochidae, the top snails.

In 1901, Melvill expressed the opinion that some malacologists might consider this species to belong in the genus Calliostoma.

Description

Distribution
This marine species occurs in the Gulf of Oman, the Persian Gulf and in the Arabian Sea.

Fortnite, the video game whose sudden rise has grabbed the imagination of gamers, is "not addictive", a Scottish university researcher has claimed.

Andrew Reid, a doctoral researcher of serious games at Glasgow Caledonian University, said people found the game hard to stop playing.

But he warned against using the term "addictive", which could stigmatise regular consumers of video games.

He said some research showed "positive characteristics of play".

What is Fortnite?

Image copyright Twitch Image caption Fortnite combines cartoon-like graphics with the challenge of being the last player standing

After six years in development Epic games released Fortnite in July 2017.

It is a co-operative survival shooting game that lets players build structures out of materials they scavenge from the game world.

Its most popular format is the Battle Royale mode which pits 100for each player and changed each time.

Mr Reid said there was scope for further research on what constituted video-game addiction but it had been "suggestively been defined as the excessive consumption of games that conflict with everyday living".

The researcher said it would be better to consider the reasons for wide and regular consumption of video games without calling players "addicts".

"To do otherwise would be to stigmatise the medium as an evil to our society, despite a growing portfolio of video games and research that reinforce the positive characteristics of play and interactivity," he said.

Mr Reid said Fortnite had a "cartoony, exaggerated style" unlike 18-rated games such as Call of Duty whose hyper-realistic style may have different consequences on children's perceptions.

He advised parents to try to encourage children to


China's economy grew by 9.6 percent in the first nine months of 1996, but many urban family incomes are lagging behind, the State Statistical Bureau said Wednesday.
Chinese industrial output was up, farmers were on their way to a year of record grain harvests and the scourge of inflation had been tamed to a year-on-year 6.6 percent in the first three quarters, bureau spokesman Ye Zhen said.
"The development of the macro-economy overall appears good," Ye told a news conference.
Gross domestic product was 4.5675 trillion yuan ($550.3 billion) between January and September, up 9.6 percent from the same period of 1995, Ye said, but gave no details. China's GDP grew by 10.2 percent in 1995.
The average urban income rose to 3,249 yuan ($391) between January and September, an actual year-on-yearincrease of 3.4 percent, he said.
But the incomes of many urban residents are lagging behind as China's economy booms, Ye said.
A survey of 35 major cities and towns had revealed that the incomes per family member of around 40 percent of households had declined, he said.
Some of the decline was the ordinary result of the birth of children or the retirement of older family members, he said.
"The second kind of situation is when the level of income falls or the level of income growth cannot keep up with inflation," Ye said, adding such problems were the cause of the income fall in about half the families surveyed.
"The difficulties of some low-income urban families have been aggravated," he said.
He gave no explanation of the decline in incomes suffered by


in runaway growth has been boosted by predictions that 1996 will be a bumper year for China's hundreds of millions of farmers.
Government policies had encouraged farmers to increase the area of land under grain, and grain output this year was forecast to exceed 480 million metric tons, beating the 1995 record harvest by about 15 million tons, Ye said.
China had set a target of 465 million tons for 1996.
Other figures released by the Statistical Bureau also painted a positive picture of an economy that Beijing says is on target for a "soft landing" after years of breakneck growth.
Year-on-year retail price inflation in the first three quarters was curbed to 6.6 percent, down 10 percentage points compared with the same period of 1995, Ye said.

Jews who came from Muslim lands tend to keep kosher, even if they're not super-affiliated. (There wasn't much more to eat in their Muslim surroundings.) This is why Paris has more kosher restaurants than New York City: the average somewhat-affiliated Jew in New York City is of European ancestry, and doesn't demand a kosher restaurant. The average somewhat-affiliated Jew in Paris is of North African ancestry, and expects a restaurant that's kosher.
More broadly, in parts of the world that didn't experience the Enlightment/Reformation the way that Europe did, the predominant brand of Judaism is Orthodox. Many don't affiliate, and don't attend, but if they did attend synagogue, it would be an Orthodox one!


QUETTA: At least four people including a woman belonging to Christian community were killed in a gun attack on Quetta’s Arbab Karam Khan Road.

The family was going to a nearby Bazaar in an auto rickshaw when unidentified assailants sprayed volley of bullets on the vehicle and fled from the scene, police said on Monday.

The deceased were identified as Tariq Maseeh, Imran Masheeh, Pervez Maseeh and Firdous Bibi.

According to police, the Christian family, who belonged to Punjab, had come to Quetta to celebrate Easter with their relatives.

The casings of 9mm bullets were recovered from the crime scene, police said.

It was the second firing incident in the city within 24 hours. Earlier in the day, six people were killed over a tribal dispute near Quetta’s Qambrani Road.

The chief minister said the terrorists were also using locals against their own countrymen.

He took the country’s political scene by storm, becoming president Robert Mugabe’s only serious rival for the better part of two decades, and campaigned until the end for a better country with greater democracy and transparency.

Tsvangirai became prime minister of Zimbabwe in September 2008 as part of a power-sharing agreement with Mugabe. He was sworn in the following year, and remained in office till 2013, but the path to get there had been long and vexed.

Tsvangirai’s decision to help found, then lead, the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) in 1999 decisively tilted the political struggle in Zimbabwe from one between civil society and government to one that


was based on a contest between political parties. He was arrested in both 2000 and 2003 on unsuccessful treason charges and, in 2007, was badly beaten while in custody. Even his bitterest enemies and detractors acknowledged his courage and determination.

Born in Gutu, Masvingo, in the south-east of the country, Tsvangirai grew up in a poor family, one of nine children of Chibwe, a bricklayer, and his wife, Lydia, and never attained the educational qualifications required for university study. Much later, when already in political life, he attended Harvard’s Kennedy School programme for executive leadership, and tried to make up for his lack of extended education by assiduous reading. He had a liking for political biographies, and his hero was Nelson Mandela.

Mugabe had been a hero too, but whenTsvangirai began his career as a union official, first as vice president of the Associated Mine Workers Union in the late 1980s, and particularly as secretary-general of the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions from 1988 to 2000, he began disputing Mugabe’s decision to implement economic structural adjustment programmes that badly affected his members. He was beaten by Mugabe’s thugs at this time, most spectacularly in 1997 when assailants tried to throw him out of a skyscraper window. However, they failed to intimidate him and, by the second half of the 1990s, he had become a formidable opponent of Mugabe and his Zanu-PF government.

its chair in 1997-98. This was a convention of the major civil society groups in Zimbabwe which fought for constitutional liberalism.

Once the MDC was in operation, its rapid growth and capacity shook Zanu-PF, and Mugabe lost a referendum on constitutional reform in 2000 because of MDC opposition. His response was to immediately launch invasions of farms held by white landowners, both to assert his authority and to fulfil his life’s dream of a completed nationalism. However, this began the precipitate decline of the Zimbabwean economy. As Mugabe became more repressive of dissent, Tsvangirai’s star rose among the disaffected of Zimbabwe and as a darling of the west.

Mugabe accused Tsvangirai of being a puppet of the west, a clone of Tony Blair, and fought his electoral campaigns on thenegative platform of avoiding the return of colonialism with Tsvangirai as the frontman of the old powers. But he also cheated, and the rigging of the 2002 presidential elections was sufficient to deny Tsvangirai victory.

The extent of rigging in the 2005 parliamentary elections is disputed, but the MDC retained a powerful voice in parliament. However, it was the intensity of events surrounding the two electoral rounds in 2008 that saw crisis, stalemate and finally a compromise breakthrough in Zimbabwe. Mugabe and Zanu-PF had been certain they would win, and the extent of MDC support surprised even Tsvangirai. Most objective commentators agreed that he took sufficient votes to become president, but the protracted process of counting allowed the government to ensure sufficient scaling down of the figures to force


a runoff. The build-up to it was one of greatly increased state violence, forcing Tsvangirai to withdraw and for Mugabe to claim victory.

That “victory” convinced no one, and even the previously tolerant presidents in other southern African countries began turning against Mugabe. Against this backdrop, South African president Thabo Mbeki’s mediation led finally to the sort of compromise achieved at the beginning of 2008 in Kenya, with a murky share of the spoils between both a president and a prime minister.

Tsvangirai negotiated well in the face of pressure from Mbeki to come to an early agreement, and immediately afterwards offered olive branches to a glum Mugabe. The challenges of economic recovery facing Tsvangirai were immense and he confronted them, knowing also that many in Zimbabwe, even among hisown supporters, questioned whether the man who had been the fully courageous opposition leader could muster the capacity to restore a complex, broken nation. Many had blamed the split in the MDC in 2006 on his heavy-handed and maladroit handling of internal dissatisfactions with his leadership; and it was also thought that, had he been more generous by way of political concessions to the breakaway group, he would have won the 2008 election by a large enough margin to make subsequent scaling down of the figures far more difficult, if not impossible.

He became the prime minister in an uneasy coalition. Zanu-PF threw a multitude of obstacles in Tsvangirai’s way. The core triumph of his party’s role in government was the stabilisation of an economy hit by mega-inflation. Much


of this was due to the work of the MDC finance minister, Tendai Biti, and his adoption of the US dollar as the national currency. Money could no longer be printed at will or on a whim. The role of the prime minister, however, was less clearcut. Subject to the president, Tsvangirai’s scope for radical change was limited. However, since the MDC commanded a slim parliamentary majority, there was the possibility of a raft of legislative reform. None, however was forthcoming, and it must be said that Tsvangirai missed one of the few golden chances available to him.

He hada core support in Zimbabwe’s cities. Even though often despairing of Mugabe and Zanu-PF, the rural poor were never fully won over by Tsvangirai. The influx of food aid to a hungry and malnourished rural population was exploited by Zanu-PF, and Tsvangirai never attempted to plan or argue for the genuine land reform and restoration of rural infrastructure that Mugabe’s rushed efforts let fall by the wayside. Above all, the presidents of the southern African region were never persuaded to give unstinting support to Tsvangirai, and his diplomatic overtures to them were under-thought and unsuccessful.

The death of his wife, Susan Mhundwa, in 2009 – in a suspicious car accident – robbed him of close emotional support. She was extremely popular with the MDC rank and file as a


person of immense personal compassion. Tsvangirai’s succession of subsequent affairs and involvements robbed him of some of his patina as a man uncorrupted by personal needs and vanities. The slide into the benefits of office afflicted the MDC parliamentarians, many of whom did not fulfil their roles as MPs with diligence – without any programme of discipline from the prime minister. Above all, however, the fall from power of Mbeki in South Africa meant that there was no regional enforcer of the terms and conditions of the coalition, some of which concerned electoral reform in time for the 2013 elections. As a result, Tsvangirai and the MDC entered those elections with bravado but without assurances of a properly level playing field. As it was, his lacklustre performance asprime minister probably acted against him as much as any electoral irregularities benefited Zanu-PF.

Having resumed his role as leader of the opposition in 2013, Tsvangirai was powerless or unwilling to prevent the splits that developed within the MDC. The weakened MDC was not therefore the standard-bearer of revolt against Mugabe. That was left to informal civil society groups such as This Flag, and, above all, to elements within Zanu-PF itself, as ambitious members began to seek out the succession from an ailing and ageing president. The power struggle within Zanu-PF resulted first in the conspicuous casualty of vice-president Joice Mujuru, but Tsvangirai was unable to accommodate her and her followers in an opposition he led. When, finally, Mugabe’s ambitious wife, Grace, engineered the overthrow of vice president Emmerson


Mnangagwa, using the same tactics she had used against Mujuru, it was the army – with support from a broad cross-section of Zanu-PF – that finally removed Mugabe from office. It was an indictment of the opposition that they had been ineffectual in their primary aim.

By this stage, Tsvangirai was clearly suffering from cancer. He did not move to appoint or nominate or even suggest a successor, so that a divided opposition – even one seeking to plaster over its cracks – will contest the 2018 elections. And it will be one without the charisma he never lost. The sight of Tsvangirai on the hustings was always an inspirational one. He could move huge crowds and his message was always one of reform, democracy and empowerment. As thefigurehead of aspiration in the politics of Zimbabwe he was beyond compare.

All who met him in those early days of opposition were also struck by a fundamental decency and gentleness. In 2005, when he was facing treason charges and the prospect of a rigged election, I wrote a book with him which was subsequently distributed to international observers. After our last writing session we relaxed in his garden and he pointed at a beautiful tree that, every year, when it flowered, gave him terrible hay fever with its copious pollen. He intuited immediately the unspoken question. “But cut it down? No no ... no. How does one cut down something of such beauty?”

It is


not a usual thing to write about political figures anywhere, never mind in the murky world of Zimbabwean politics, but Tsvangirai aspired to build a beautiful Zimbabwe when all around him were those lopping off its branches. His idealism was counterpointed by his naivety in office. His determination and courage were counterpointed by his stubbornness and inability to sustain coalitions of those opposed to Mugabe. He never learned to tame his impulsiveness and learn the protracted arts of tip-toeing through a minefield of different agendas in governmental or opposition coalitions with checks and balances and vexed conditionalities that, without goodwill, made any progress impossible.

His legacy is that he stood up to face Mugabe and his huge securitised machinery of control and patronage. He was a David figure who,in the shadow of Goliath, did not break and run. His immense courage as the first opposition leader of stature in Zimbabwean history will be forever a testament to him, but not his accomplishments as a beleaguered prime minister.

Tsvangirai is survived by the six children he had with his first wife, Susan, whom he married in 1978. After her death in 2009, Locardia Karimatsenga claimed he had married her in a traditional ceremony in 2010. He formally married Elizabeth Macheka in 2012 and is survived by her.

For some girls, stressful experiences in the first year of life seem to drive hormonal changes later in childhood. And these chemical changes, in turn, lead to abnormal brain connectivity and signs of anxiety and depression at age 18, suggests a study published today in Nature Neuroscience1.

Researchers have long known that stress early in life is a risk factor for a host of psychological and physical problems, from mood disorders and substance abuse to obesity and cardiovascular disease. The new study proposes that for some individuals, childhood experiences permanently alter the way the body and brain cope with stress.

“This is one of the first demonstrations that early stress seems to have an impact on the the way this regulatory circuitry is set up in latewill decide petitioners' pension rights had already vested when the law was amended, and since in construing legislative enactments courts will presume the Legislature intended a constitutional application and an unconstitutional construction will not be given unless the wording of the statute compels it (Baldwin v. City of San Diego (1961) 195 Cal.App.2d 236, 240 [15 Cal.Rptr. 576]), we give negative answers to both questions.  [fn. 1]*440
 We state the facts in more detail. On November 30, 1962, the date of his retirement, Roy Santin was a colonel in the California National Guard on active duty with the office of the Adjutant General. He had served approximately 22 years on active military duty, nearly 15 of the years as above, and, in addition, he had served over


5 years in active service and nearly 2 years in an inactive status in a reserve component of the United States Army. Petitioner Galletly, who, as stated, retired on December 31, 1962, was a chief warrant officer, in similar service. He had served over 23 years on active duty, 15 of them in the California National Guard with the office of the Adjutant General, and, in addition, had served more than 5 years on active duty and more than 3 years in an inactive status in a reserve component of the United States Army.
 One month after retirement each officer submitted his verified claim for the first month's retirement pay. These claims were computed on the basis of the laws to be discussed as they existed before October1, 1961, with the fate described above.
 Military and Veterans Code section 228, until October 1, 1961, provided that any commissioned or warrant officer with 20 years of military service for the state might apply for retirement. The section provided that service in the armed forces of the United States or any reserve component thereof should be considered as state service in computing the length of service. It further provided they would be retired "in accordance with the federal law, statutes, rules and regulations which on the date of such application govern the retirement of commissioned officers and warrant officers of the reserve components of the Army of the United States on extended active duty. In such cases the length of service shall be computed as provided in


As stated by appellant, they are a device to measure pay during service and the allowances to be paid after retirement. (It is worth repeating that so far as the amounts paid by the United States to commissioned and warrant officers during their active service and upon their retirement they have not been changed by federal law, statute, rule or regulation during the period from 1953 to date. It is also to be noted that no double credits are involved. During the period when petitioners were on an inactive status with the United States Army reserve component they were not receiving army credits for active service with the state.)

David Beckham has backed his former teammate Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to succeed as Manchester United’s permanent manager.

The Norwegian was confirmed as United boss on a three-year contract last week, having won 10 of his 13 Premier League games in charge.

And the team’s season has been transformed since the ex-striker replaced Jose Mourinho as manager on December 18.

United now face Barcelona in the Champions League quarter-final after recovering from 2-0 down to knock out Paris Saint-Germain in one of the club’s greatest European comebacks.

And Beckham has given a vote of confidence to the man who scored the winner when United won Europe’s top prize in 1999 in a miraculous


late victory over Bayern Munich.

"It's great, he has done an incredible job, so he deserves the contract he has got," Beckham told Sky Sports News, speaking at the Bahrain Grand Prix.

"He is loved by the fans and the players and everyone else at the club. He has done a great job and it will continue because real fans love him. It's great for the club and great for him.”

Beckham has seen his former England team-mate Gareth Southgate make an equally impressive impact in charge of the national team, leading the team to back to back Euro 2020 qualifying wins following last summer’s last-four showing at the World Cup.

A US citizen working as a tour guide has been charged with spying for Chinese intelligence services, the US Department of Justice said.

Xuehua Peng delivered classified information to China's Ministry of State Security (MSS), prosecutors said.

Mr Peng, 56, allegedly completed five "dead drops" at hotel rooms between 2015 and 2018.

He was arrested on Friday in Hayward, California, and denied bail at a court hearing.

"The conduct charged in this case alleges a combination of age-old spy-craft and modern technology," US Attorney David Anderson said.

The FBI snared Mr Peng, also known as "Edward Peng", as part of an elaborate "double agent operation" launched in March 2015.

A "confidential human source" -


an FBI double agent - passed national security secrets to Mr Peng in return for payment, prosecutors said.

On six separate occasions, Mr Peng allegedly showed up at hotel rooms in California and Georgia to collect or drop off packages.

In four of those cases, Mr Peng allegedly retrieved an SD card containing classified information, before travelling to Beijing to meet Chinese intelligence officers.

Covert FBI footage, released by the US Department of Justice, shows Mr Peng conducting some of the dead drops, prosecutors said. Dead drops are used by spies to pass information or items in secret locations.

Mr Peng's arrest "exposes and disrupts an operation by those Chinese intelligence officers to collect such information without having to step foot in this country", Assistant Attorney General of National Security John Demerssaid.

A resident of Hayward in San Francisco's Bay Area, Mr Peng arrived in the US on a temporary business visa. He became a permanent resident in February 2006, following his marriage to his then wife, and was naturalised as a US citizen in September 2012.

Trained in traditional Chinese medicine, Mr Peng is believed to have been working as a sightseeing tour operator in the San Francisco area for Chinese students and visitors.

Mr Peng is expected to appear in court for a detention hearing in San Francisco on Wednesday. If convicted of the charges, he faces a maximum sentence of 10 years, and a fine of $250,000 (£203,000).

The NoteTaker was developed by a team that included Adele Goldberg, Douglas Fairbairn, and Larry Tesler. It drew heavily on earlier research by Alan Kay, who had previously developed the Dynabook project. While the Dynabook was a concept for a transportable computer that was impossible to implement with available technology, the NoteTaker was intended to show what could be done.

The computer employed what was then highly advanced technology, including a built-in monochrome display monitor, a floppy disk drive and a mouse.

Effective and accountable coordination between policies, regulation and leadership for MHS is needed to promote the mental health of the whole population. Resources for MHS are commonly limited, adding to the need for strong coordination between different sectors.

In practice, the fragmentation of psychiatric services, and the lack of coordination with social welfare or the labour administration, negatively afflicts many mental health care systems. The cost of under-, double- or over-provision of services caused by this phenomenon is estimated to be high \[[@CR32]\]. Other negative consequences of fragmentation include treatment discontinuation and neglect of specific risk groups. Efforts to only address the consequences of fragmentation are often costly or have only limited effects. Ideally, public mental health services should focus onIslands and Rocks - 2012

My work for this exhibition was initially inspired by a walk across a shallow sandbar to Penguin Island in Shoalwater Bay, Western Australia. The water on the sand bar came up to my thighs; on either side of me the sandbar gave way to sea-grass fields and the limestone reefs of the Bay. It was early in the morning, the safest time to walk the Bar, and it was magical to walk across the sea to the Island.

I began to consider three worlds, which meet around an island.
The first world is the Underwater realm where everything is liquid and tidal, where place is defined by being shallow or deep. The second world is the Earth, where inhabitants breath air, fly and feel the sun


and wind. The third world is the Imaginary world of dreams, knowledge, memory, language and meaning. An island is a place where these three worlds meet. Islands also embody dualities: barrenness and fertility, wildness and sanctuary. They require a journey to visit and a journey requires imagination and engagement with both the sea and the island.

As in past exhibitions my work references the social and environmental history of water bodies, but my paintings also aim to suggest their sensory and poetic nature.

Last updated on .From the section Scottish Premiership

Ten-man Rangers moved top of the Premiership for the first time under Steven Gerrard after a fiery comeback victory over Hearts at Tynecastle.

Following Scott Arfield's red card for a rash challenge on goalkeeper Zdenek Zlamal, the visitors held on for the final 20 minutes to move a point clear.

Hearts were rewarded for a strong start by a Gareth McAuley own goal but Connor Goldson quickly levelled.

Alfredo Morelos then added the decisive touch from an offside position.

The striker's goal, equalling the Premiership era record of scoring in seven successive games, was one of many contentious moments in a tempestuous game.

It was a fourth league loss in a row for Hearts, who were top of the table in early November, leaving them infourth place.

The hosts were much improved from their limp loss at St Mirren and headers from Steven MacLean and Arnaud Djoum forced good early saves from Allan McGregor.

A neat move on 29 minutes culminated with Marcus Godinho delivering a low cross from the right and a sliding McAuley could only divert the ball into his own net.

Rangers responded with a ferocious onslaught, with Djoum diving to nod clear from a Ovie Ejaria header, moments before the leveller arrived.

Zlamal saved well at the feet of Goldson from a corner but the central defender was able to bundle the rebound high into the net.

A James Tavernier free-kick brushed the side-netting and Zlamal blocked bravely from McAuley as Rangers kept up the pressure and what proved to be the winner arrived


before the interval.

Morelos, who missed a good chance on the volley before Hearts scored, raced away too early from a free-kick and was clearly offside when he applied a deft touch to Tavernier's terrific delivery. But the goal stood and took the Colombian's tally for the season to 17.

Morelos was involved in a running battle with returning Hearts captain Christophe Berra all afternoon, with both men frequently wrestling off the ball.

The frantic pace continued in the second half, with both sets of players, both dugouts and the fans inside a packed stadium screaming for every decision.

Goalmouth chances dried up though, as Rangers took a hold of midfield and looked menacing on the counter-attack.

Morelos went close, stretching to send Ejaria's cross just wide before Rangers picked up their seventhred card of the season.

Zlamal produced two good stops to deny Daniel Candeias and Morelos, and had the ball in both hands on the goalline as Arfield came clattering in to ram it over the line, smashing into the keeper's head with his knee.

Referee Bobby Madden, who had produced just one yellow card in a stormy contest, immediately sent Arfield packing but Gerrard's depleted side had few problems holding out.

'Rangers hit back quickly and decisively' - Analysis

BBC Scotland's Brian McLauchlin at Tynecastle

Credit must go to Gerrard and his players. They fought back quickly and decisively and deserved their victory. They also had more than a slice of fortune for what proved to be the winner.

Morelos


escaped punishment after jumping into Hearts captain Berra and was then one of three Rangers men in an offside position when he flicked the ball into the far corner.

There is no doubting the talents of Morelos but not for the first time his temperament can be called into question. And Gerrard will surely be asking questions of Arfield, who needlessly went in with both feet on Zlamal giving the referee no option but to issue a straight red card.

Rangers now sit proudly at the top of the top flight for the first time in seven years. The task that lies ahead is to stay there and keep Celtic, who have played a game fewer, at bay.

For Hearts this was their sixth match without a win in all competitionsAttorney 'offended' at hearing after firefighter's death

Hamilton Fire Chief Steve Dawson, IAFF Local 20 Pres. Brian Ruhl, and City of Hamilton Safety Dir. J. Scott Scrimizzi talk about Patrick Wolterman, who died in the line of duty early Monday morning.
The Enquirer/Carrie Cochran

Lester Parker and William Tucker are both charged with murder and aggravated arson in the 2015 death of Hamilton Firefighter Patrick Wolterman. Prosecutors have said Parker solicited his nephew, Tucker, to start the fire which led to Wolterman's death after he fell through the first floor and into the basement of Parker's home.

Both have pleaded not guilty. Their trial is scheduled for November.

Attorneys for both men filed a series of motions last month, arguing for a change of venue and separate trials, among other things.

Butler County Judge


the prosecution has accumulated. She hinted the prosecution plans to present evidence that Tucker, who lives in Richmond, Kentucky, was in Hamilton around the time of the fatal fire.

She told the court investigators used location technology from Tucker's cell phone and other electronic equipment to track his whereabouts. She complained this is being used in a circumstantial way.

"My client had occasions well before this incident to be in Hamilton," Sack said. "This is one of the reasons I feel my client would be prejudiced."

Assistant Prosecuting Attorney David Kash said defense counsel would have the opportunity to object to evidence like that during the trial.Cosme Saavedra

shows that sales had increased to a level that attracted competitors.

In this investment cycle, newly
designed boxes were also introduced.

The decisions taken at this
time did not cause a surge of the product itself - it remained basically
the same - but they are a statement that sales showed promise and the
producer decided that the construction toy was to stay in the market.

1954/55

1954/55- The LEGO System
i leg: in the market to win!

In 1954 started the investment
cycle that would be capital to LEGO. It started


rather inauspiciously
with the introduction of the little-used 4X4 corner brick, the prone-to-bend
2X8, 2X10, 2X12 and 2X14 beams and the large and rather clumsy "windows
with glass".

A little remarked but highly
meaningful detail was the rethinking of the 700/ boxed sets. Until 1953
they were just an amassment of bricks and windows in up to five colours,
sold with a leaflet with loose construction
ideas, most of which required multiple boxes to be achievable. But
now the number of available colours started being reduced until only building-like
white and red would remain and each set now carried enough material for
a specific building, illustrated in the leaflet
that went in each box.

LEGO stylized its brand recognition
mark in 1954, introducing the so-called "dogbone logo" in its
bricks. All new molds were now machined to print the logo underneath the
brick. Sowere 2X4vs03, 2X2vs03, and the new thick 10X20 baseplate.

During 1954 the company thought
of a new side of the building toy that called for small bricks- this was
LEGO MOSAIK, a short-lived mosaic builder that relied on 1X1
round and square bricks as well as 1X2 square and round bricks (known
in the hobby as "macaroni"). The 1X1 bricks, that seemed yet
out of context in the frame of a system based on a 2X4 brick module, were
perfect for the Mosaik system. But they had to be branded to raise barriers
against likely competitors. They were too small to be branded in the
interior and the only part exposed in a built mosaic was the top and thus
they were the first parts to be marked on top their studs. At the
same time new molds were


made so that the other bricks on which the Mosaik
system relied were also branded on the stud tops. These were 1X2vs03
and vs02 of the macaroni bricks.
The studs were still
full bodied, but new, presumably faster, injection machinery was now available
and seemingly it was used in the new 1X1square and 1X2vs03 bricks. But
the faster cycle brought a displeasing result: the stud surfaces caved
in and looked bad! Oh well, it had to do for now!

In 1955 the investment cycle
was beautifully completed and it should go in marketing manuals as one
of the most unexpected blueprints for success in the toy industry. LEGO
was building not a collection of brick types, as several other brands
had, but a whole play-system: on sale went the thin
plates, that could be used as both bases and elegant modernistconstruction-toy
paraphernalia could not be conveniently sold in the large boxes of brick
assortments, neither could it be sold in units. And so LEGO developed
a scheme already tried with the windows: low cost, attractively designed,
numbered "matchboxes" in
which all accessories, as well as small quantities of bricks, could be
bought. These relatively inexpensive parts boxes, attractively displayed
in stands or rotators, became the ideal gift for a little boy to beg his
parents when the family went to the Magasins du Nord, or for a visiting
couple to soothe the dear children of the hosts. This was, to my knowledge,
a rather new concept in the field- one that would be copied by all competitors
- the sincerest recognition of an idea's worth.

But this was still not all
for this year of all years: LEGO launched two new


concepts - the City
Plan, a plastic or cardboard plant with streets, grass spots and lots
where LEGO buildings could be placed to make up a whole neighbourhood;
and set boxes with all the material needed to construct a building to
fill a vacant lot. As we remarked above, the concept of a "building
in a box" had already been introduced for 1954 in the 700/ sets,
but now four of the small "matchbox" accessory sets allowed
the construction of so many miniature houses, with their own place in
the City Plan. And then there was the new (1236)
set, consisting of the full complement of material to build a garage (for
the Plan, of course).

This was LEGO's "System
i leg"- the "System in play", an integrated concept where
the building bricks were not the main product bur rather apiece of a
toy puzzle that would be constructed by the child to the limits of his
imagination and the means of his parents to increase the collection
of available bricks, vehicles and complementing items. Actually, many
a child wanted to have a full collection of supplemental boxes because
they made up a numbered array, irrespective of the utility of the contents...
I know because I was one of those children!

1956

1956- Rounding the edges
and picking the produce

Times must have been hectic
at LEGO in 1956. Now that they had a really promising product, it had
to be sold so as to get hold of a share of the market before competitors
could follow suit. In
1956 started the first export to non-Scandinavian countries (Germany and
Holland) and other interested partners started queuing, including a representative
in faraway Portugal. With the


opening of the foreign markets, the sky
was the limit for LEGO if they played it right.

This was not a time for
substantial investment in new items- it was a time for devising new attractive
ways to offer the existing system and a time to solve technical problems,
albeit minor. The fulfillment of hopes in the foreign markets might depend
on it, especially in Germany where technically minded competitors might
explore the deficiencies of the system.

On the news side, 1956 saw
the introduction of a set (1310) in the spirit of the garage of 1955-
it was a beautiful Art Deco Esso Service Station including, this time,
bricks, accessories and a vehicle.

The expanding foreign markets
called for new molds to increase the output and it was the time to modernize
the System and correct the problems that limited theto attention. And that
was the lack of a wholly positive connection between bricks - very
often connected bricks only stayed united by gravity or after a thin plate
effectively "closed" the top of the structure, making it rigid.
Solution: design of tubular connectors for the 2X4, 2X3 and 2X2
bricks where the problem was more acute and easier to tackle. LEGO developed
a tubular connector that solved the problem and versions 2X4vs05, 2X3vs06
and 2X2vs05 substituted the versions of only a year ago in the esteemed
foreign markets, while apparently the remaining stocks were drained by
the home market.

But the introduction of the
tubular connectors was much more relevant than just solving a problem.
Actually the patent for the positive connection of plastic toy bricks,
a world-first, would both liberate LEGO from the ever-present ghost of
its Kiddicraft ancestry, and


MILWAUKEE -- The Milwaukee Bucks spent the 82 games of the regular season, followed by the four more it took them to dispatch the Detroit Pistons in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, playing one way. Doing so allowed the Bucks to post the NBA's best record and Giannis Antetokounmpo to produce a season that has him likely to win this year's Most Valuable Player award.

But then came Sunday's blowout loss at the hands of the Boston Celtics in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals -- a loss that gave away home-court advantage in the best-of-seven series and reignited doubts from around the league about whether Milwaukee's playing style and personnel are good enough to back up its regular-season performance.

If there were any questions aboutMIRAMSHAH: Sixteen persons were killed and four others sustained injuries in two separate missile attacks by the US drones in North Waziristan on Thursday.

Tribal sources said a drone fired two missiles at a house in Spalga village located on the Miramshah-Razmak Road early in the day. The villagers said six people were killed and four others sustained injuries in the attack. Local tribesmen said the house caught fire and collapsed when it was hit by the unmanned aerial vehicle. According to the villagers, bodies of six persons were pulled put of the wreckage. All were disfigured beyond recognition. “All the bodies wererecognition. “All the bodies were burnt and had turned into pieces. It was hard to recognise them,” a tribesman told The News. The villagers also said that


four other people suffered injuries and were later shifted to a hospital in Miramshah, where the doctors reported them in critical condition

Later in the day, a drone carried out another attack and targeted a double-cabin pickup truck on the Mir Ali-Khaisoor Road, at a distance of 35 kilometres south of Mir Ali, the second major town of North Waziristan, killing 10 people. The tribal sources said the double-cabin pickup truck was on way to Khaisoor village from Mir Ali. Khaisoor is located near the border with South Waziristan. The villagers said four US spy planes were flying over the area during the missile attack on the vehicle. They said the drones continued hovering over the area even an hour after the missile attack. “No one could risk hislife to get close to the destroyed vehicle and retrieve bodies of the slain people due to fear of the drones which were still flying over the area even after the attack,” a local tribesman said. There was no way to ascertain the identity of the people slain in the two drone attacks.

The United States has stepped up drone strikes in North Waziristan and killed a number of people at a time when different political parties and local tribesmen in the tribal region are planning to stage a march on Islamabad along with the victims of the missile strikes and family members of those killed in these attacks.


When Alan met Fred

In an interview with Mark Davis, engineer and author Alan McEwen, who runs Dandelion Stone Troughs and Architectural Antiques at Cowling, North Yorkshire, tells of his friendship and his shared interests with northern hero Fred Dibnah.

When Alan McEwen was a lad in a Lancashire village, he wasn’t interested in football like most, but he was fascinated by steam engines, factories, railway bridges, Meccano and engineering books.
He started work at 15 in a boiler factory, became an expert in boiler repairs and for 40 years ran his own specialist company.

It was almost inevitable that at some point he would cross paths with Fred Dibnah, legendary steeplejack, steam enthusiast and TV personality dedicated to honouring Britain’s industrial heritage.

Alan and his team were working at a boilerhouse incertain old fashioned atmosphere emanating from the buildings and from the fact that everything was there like it used to be in the engine houses of the sixties and earlier.

“I liked Fred. He was a character. What you saw was what you got. There was nothing greatly unusual about him for those times. Lots of the pubs at weekends were full of plasterers and joiners and engineers and builders who all looked the same – flat caps and Woodbines in, swilling ale down their throats like there was no tomorrow. Fred was very similar to that, but he was also a good reader. And to say that he had no education is wrong. He was brilliant at technical drawings in Indian ink, and his copperplate writing was unimaginably

Legislator Barbara Miller-Williams, D-Buffalo, cautioned AFSCME members, a number of whom were present at the meeting, that the $1,000 bonuses would be taxed at a high rate.

Union President Richard Canazzi said the county has had a history of allowing expired contracts to go unresolved for six or seven years, and getting the Legislature to support zero percent raises each year. That was made clear through the county's records, he said.

"We showed there was a pattern," he said.

He also said it was the county that called an impasse in April of last year even though AFSCME representatives wanted to continue negotiating. The blue-collar union represents everyone from parks workers, highway laborers and tradesmen to certified nurses aides. Their members not only work directly for Erie County government, butalso for Erie County Medical Center, the library system and Erie Community College.

The one-time payments are expected to cost the county between $400,000 and $500,000, and cost ECMC about $600,000, Canazzi said.

"We're the lowest paid of all the unions in the county," Canazzi said. "I'm just thankful we have a legislative body that has the best interests of the community, not the unions, the community."

Low county wages have hurt the county's recruitment efforts in many areas, he said.

The union's bargaining team had previously recommended a tentative agreement that included raises of 2 percent for each year of a four-year contract, as well as an agreement to move its members to a slightly more costly health insurance plan. The new plan would have increased co-pays for doctors' visits from


ATLANTA -- Former Georgia football coach Jim Donnan is accused of orchestrating an $80 million Ponzi scheme, using his own prominence to get high-profile college coaches and former players to invest, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission said Thursday.

Donnan and business partner Gregory Crabtree, of Proctorville, Ohio, convinced investors to pour millions of dollars into a business they said was unique and profitable with huge potential and little risk, said William P. Hicks, associate director of the SEC's Atlanta office.

Donnan and Crabtree sold investments in West Virginia-based retail liquidation company GLC Limited and promised high rates of return that didn't materialize, federal regulators said. The pair raised about $80 million from nearly 100 investors, but only about $12 million of that was used to buy merchandise for liquidation,the SEC said.

The SEC's complaint charges Donnan and Crabtree with violating federal securities laws.

A lawyer for Donnan did not immediately return a phone call and email message seeking comment. A lawyer for Crabtree did not immediately return a phone call.

Donnan's attorney has previously acknowledged the former coach was paid lucrative commissions, but he said Donnan believed he was being paid from legitimate profits earned by the company.

Donnan was the coach at Marshall University from 1990 through 1995 and at Georgia from 1996-2000 and later became an ESPN analyst.

Among the coaches Donnan helped attract were Texas State football coach Dennis Franchione; Virginia Tech football coach Frank Beamer; ex-Dallas Cowboys coach Barry Switzer and Texas Tech football coach Tommy Tuberville.

Victoria Police said its investigators recovered two stolen vehicles: a black Holden Captiva and a Landrover Discovery. Among the other items seized were imitation firearms and a military assault rifle. Detective Inspector Pannell said all the weapons were found in one person's bedroom and that itappeared the imitation firearms were used to strike fear into the hearts of victims. "Just by the nature of the offending and going into peoples homes when they're there is causing fear, unnecessary fear," he said. "The weapons are being used at this stage to enhance that fear." The warrants were executed in relation to a series of alleged incidents in Melbourne’s south-eastern suburbs between July 26 and August 7.

UPDATE: A representative for Nintendo provided the following statement to IGN about Scott Moffitt's exit from Nintendo:

Scott Moffitt, Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing, has decided to leave Nintendo of America. In order to ensure a smooth transition, Scott will continue to work through the end of July. Nintendo has a strong group of seasoned leaders in place who will step in to assume the full responsibilities of the role on a permanent basis, with the objective of driving more collaboration and greater efficiencies across these groups and among the respective leaders. We thank Scott for his years of service and wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors.

Original story follows:

Sources at Nintendo have told IGN that executive VP of sales


and marketing Scott Mofitt will leave the company later this summer.

The split between Moffitt and Nintendo was described by sources as "amicable." Moffit will remain with company until an unspecified date later this summer. Nintendo has decided to permanently dissolve the position of executive VP of sales and marketing. The responsibilities of this role will be split among members of the company's existing staff.

Moffitt joined Nintendo in 2011 after a five year run at Henkel Consumer Goods, where he served as a senior vice-president and oversaw personal care brands like Dial, Right Guard, and Tone. Moffitt's extensive experience in marketing includes a seven year stint at PepsiCo.If it is a film or book, don't spend your entire overview summarizing the plot.

While the extent, nature, or importance of the impact of his love for an actual person on his poetry is debated, there is certainly no doubt that he is in love with the words of Love and with the forms in which these words are expressed. The powerful images he evokes, the clarity of expression, the passion he conjures up all point to a deliberate and carefully planned manipulation of the language.

Linda Holt was abducted from the offices of Armstrong and France, an accounting firm in Ft. Collins, Colorado, and murdered. Ms. Holt had worked for the firm for several months as a tax accountant. The firm was wholly owned by the debtor, Claude Allen France. Donald Eugene Long was later apprehended and confessed to the murder. He is currently serving a life sentence at the state penitentiary.
Ms. Holt's husband, appellant Michael H. Holt, sought workmen's compensation benefits as a surviving spouse. In a decision dated July 31, 1989, the Colorado Division of Labor found that Ms. Holt was killed while performing services within the scope of her employment. It then held that Holt was entitled to actual funeral benefits of up to $3,000.00, and death benefits of *970$382.69 for each week that he remained alive and unmarried. Since France was not an insured employer under Colorado's Workmen's Compensation Act, the agency assessed against France a fifty percent penalty on certain amounts awarded for failure to insure. France thereafter filed for bankruptcy.
On December 15, 1989, Holt commenced an adversary proceeding seeking a determination that France's obligations to him were nondischargeable. Trial on the complaint was held on July 31, 1990. During trial, France testified that he was not aware that his company was without workmen's compensation insurance until Holt sought benefits from him in 1987. He admitted having been several days late in making his 1986 annual premium payment to the State Compensation Insurance Fund, which he explained was a result of the hectic pace of
