people coming back to their families showcases a wide array of reactions and emotions, which Butters says is part of what hooked them on the project. Smith adds that the his character in particular is experiencing many different feelings with the return of his son.

"There is a great mix of emotions because not only is he getting the privilege of having somebody that he lost come back after 30 years, but it's complicated by the fact that that tampers with the memory of the child that he's lost," says Smith. "It forces him to reexamine what he's done with his life for the past 30 years. Those sort of things cause a real emotion stew in his life."

"That's the emotional heart of the show, this little family," addsby hazardous waste during the preceding fifteen years.   Three years later, in March 1987, hazardous materials were discovered in the soil, groundwater, and bedrock at the Burlington site.   The contaminants were most conspicuous near a degreaser unit operated by High Voltage.   The cleaning solvents utilized in the High Voltage degreaser unit were identical to the contaminants found in the surrounding area.   ALP notified High Voltage and attempted to arrive at a settlement on the cleanup costs.

In December 1987, High Voltage became the target of a hostile tender offer by Natalie Acquisition Corporation ("Natalie"), a subsidiary of Hyde Park Partners, a limited partnership controlled by Clifford Press and Laurence Levy.   Natalie borrowed $51 million from Marine Midland National Bank


("Marine Midland") to finance Natalie's acquisition of High Voltage's stock.   By March 1988, Natalie had acquired 94% of High Voltage's stock, and Press and Levy became officers and directors of High Voltage.   In August 1988, Press and Levy merged Natalie into High Voltage, and High Voltage assumed liability for the Marine Midland loans with which the High Voltage takeover had been financed.

Meantime, ALP met with little success in persuading High Voltage to clean up the hazardous wastes at the Burlington site.   In February 1988, ALP again demanded that High Voltage accept responsibility for the cleanup.   In March 1988, ALP threatened legal action unless High Voltage cleaned up the contamination and compensated ALP in damages.   Ultimately, in September 1988,ALP brought an action in Massachusetts Superior Court demanding declaratory, injunctive, and monetary relief from High Voltage, Press, and Levy, among others.

B. The Present Dispute

In October 1987, prior to Natalie's takeover of High Voltage but after the discovery of the contaminants at the Burlington site, Federal issued an executive liability and indemnity policy to High Voltage, insuring High Voltage's officers and directors against loss occasioned by third party claims for wrongful acts committed during the policy period.   High Voltage itself was insured under the policy for defending or indemnifying its officers and directors against third party claims.   The coverage exclusions in the Federal policy included the pollution exclusion clause at issue in the present dispute and a property damage exclusion clause.

Michael O’Neal Crenshaw had been arrested Sept. 20, 2009, by Rockdale police on a charge of aggravated sexual assault of a child after an investigation by police and Milam County Child Protective Services.

Police said the victim was a five-year-old girl.

Jersey City is part of the New York City conurbation. It is separated from New York proper by merely a river that is crossed by bridges and tunnels. As such, the New Jersey and NYC Lithuanian communities are closely related. New Jersey Lithuanian sites may easily be visited when visiting New York City.

Elizabeth Lithuanian sites

The heart of the New Jersey Lithuanian community is Elizabeth city near Jersey City with its old and massive Lithuanian St. Peter and Paul church (211 Ripley Pl.) - the mass is celebrated in Lithuanian and English.

The church houses an Our Lady of Šiluva altar (near its side wall) dedicated to the earliest church-recognized Maryan vision in Europe (took place in Šiluva, Lithuania). It is full of ethnic woodcarving motifs. Moreover, Our Lady ofVilnius is included in the main altar (at the top of the altar, it is a copy of the Virgin Mary painting in Vilnius). The church decorations are also especially Lithuanian with Lithuanian inscriptions available on the stained glass windows (with sponsor names) and on the stations of the cross (with explanations of the New Testament events depicted there). Much of the artwork inside has been created by Lithuanians, Near the entrance, there is a gallery of church-history-related artifacts and Lithuania-related images (e.g. painting of a traditional wooden cross or a picture of the cross erected by church members at the Hill of Crosses in Šiauliai).

Outside of the church stands a traditional Lithuanian sun-cross, while the plaque with the church name also features Lithuanian designs.

The church's peculiar towers


look "too short" because their steeples were removed due to them having been damaged by the places taking off from the nearby Newark airport. The plane staking off are also hearable inside the church.

Since 2006, the Elizabeth Lithuanian church shares its priest with the Polish St. Adalbert parish (but both churches are open). One of the church's famous priests (in fact, its founder) Mssgr. Kemėžis has a street named after him nearby. On the street sign, however, his name is written with a typo as "Kemensis".

For 65 years a Lithuanian bakery (131 Inslee Place) operates in the district offering Lithuanian bread among other Eastern European meals. The bakery is Ukrainian-owned today, however, but retains its historic name. As numerous vans parked outside suggest, the bread of the bakeryis rather popular. Bakery's front facade is covered by wood to remind of the Lithuanian traditional architecture.

Newark Lithuanian sites

While Elizabeth Lithuanian church is today the grandest in all of the New Jersey, this wasn't always the case. Newark's Romance Revival Holy Trinity Lithuanian church may have surpassed it in grandeur. Unfortunately, it has caught fire in 1981 and, while the damaged did not destroy it, the diocese refused to permit repairs. The parish was thus relocated to a rather simple two-floored edifice it has previously built as a parish hall in 1963.

The church is still open, however, the mass is now Portuguese-only as the Portuguese-speaking community has gradually displaced the Lithuanian one. Still, there are many Lithuanian details left, including Vytis on the door glass, Lithuanian folk-art wooden


frame than encloses the church's mass schedule and a Lithuanian sun-cross that stands near the entrance since 1962 (relocated from the old church). At its center is Rūpintojėlis, the traditional Lithuanian image of a sad Jesus. The church is close doutside the mass, however, the mass is held everyday.

Bayonne, Kearny and Paterson Lithuanian sites

Elsewhere in New Jersey too, Lithuanian parishes indicate Lithuanian presence. The trend was the same: the Lithuanian parishes established in Jersey suburbs ~1910 with the first Lithuanian migrant wave, however, the current churches constructed in 1950s-1970s modern or semi-modern style as the small communities became rich enough and post-WW2 refugees needed to be accommodated. In ~2000s Lithuanian language, services were abandoned as new generations replaced their parents and grandparents who spoke Lithuanian well.

A small towerlessSt. Michael Lithuanian church stands in the southern suburb of Bayonne since 1977. Its address is 15 E Twenty-Third St but the nearby Church St. is also known as Matulis Way after the church's priest who passed out in 2000. Bayonne has ~400 Lithuanians (~0,6%). St. Michael church was, however, formally partially transferred to Syriac Catholics in the 2010s. Despite such transfer, the interior is still all-Lithuanian and nearly always open (unlike all the other Lithuanian churches of New Jersey, which are unlocked only for the mass). Even the Lithuanian flag remains beside the altar. Also, the old stations of the cross, most likely relocated from the previous church, are adorned in the old-Lithuanian-language inscriptions. The stained glass windows, usually among the most impressive parts of the Lithuanian-American


churches, here are rather modest, however. A complex "time-sharing" system between Roman and Syriac Catholics is apparently in place, as posted near the entrance. Over the entrance, the words "Lithuanian church" are chiseled.

Another area that has been popular among Lithuanian immigrants was the Kearny suburb. In 1915 when a Lithuanian parish has been established in nearby Harrison, there lived 400 Lithuanians in Kearny and 700 in Harrison (~450 and ~150 today). ~1954 a new larger towered church of Our Lady of Sorrows has been constructed in Kearny (136 Davis Ave). On the parish's 850th anniversary Reverend Pocus wrote, "Second- and third- generation families may never fully appreciate the fervent longings of their forebears for the sights and sounds of their homeland. But certainly, our older parishioners can recallthe poverty of our people, their loneliness in a strange land, their youth and energy, and feeling of unity which they felt with their fellow Lithuanians".

The Kearny Lithuanian church is still officially Lithuanian and has a plaque commemorating that. It also has another Lithuanian traditional sun-cross near its entrance, donated by the Knights of Lithuania organization.

After World War 2 (1962) the Paterson Lithuanian parish also constructed its modest St. Casimir church (147 Montgomery St; closed 2014, sold to non-denominational Christians).

November 30, 1993|By Jerome Weeks | Jerome Weeks,Dallas Morning News

Perhaps the millennium is truly at hand: When Robert Sherwood's drama "Abe Lincoln in Illinois" opened at the Vivian Beaumont Theatre yesterday, that made three Pulitzer Prize-winning plays on Broadway -- the others are "Angels in America: Millennium Approaches" and "The Kentucky Cycle."

Of course, "Abe Lincoln" is old stuff: It won the Pulitzer in 1938. But with eight other major Broadway shows making their debut this month, November had more openings than any fall month since 1981 -- and the openings included "Perestroika" (the second half of "Angels in America") and the Neil Simon comedy, "Laughter on the 23rd Floor."

As if to prove beyond a doubt that this fall season


is flukish, November also featured the departure of Frank Rich, the New York Times' chief theater critic for 13 years.

Broadway, which was characterized by producer Michael David in a recent Time magazine article as "Vegas for plays," seems to be violating its own "conventional wisdom": Hold the shows until spring to get a boost from the Tony Awards.

Like Hollywood studios squeezing their action blockbusters into two or three big-money summer weekends, Broadway producers the past decade have shrunk the theater season to less than two months. Much of the New York season has become a brief, frantic prelude to the crap shoot of the Tony Awards show in June.

"I don't really have a good answer for what's happening this fall," says Jack Viertel, creative director of the Jujamcyntheater chain, which is co-producing "Angels in America" and the Richard Chamberlain revival of "My Fair Lady," which will open at the Virginia Theatre Dec. 6. "But I've got some theories."

Mr. Viertel points out that conventional wisdom dictates that a producer should aim for a big boost from the Tony Awards to carry his show through the summer. "But the really tough season is actually in the winter, January through March," he says. Which means any Tony Awards boost from the previous summer won't help; it's been too long a haul.

Mr. Viertel thinks a new counter-strategy may be developing: Open in the fall and, with good reviews, you can make it through the winter. Then any Tony Awards in June will give the show a second wind for


comedy. They're just about the only sure bets around.

It's also true that two of the biggest productions -- the nine-part "Kentucky Cycle," which opened to mixed reviews, and "Cyrano: The Musical" -- are produced by relative novices. David Richenthal's $2.5 million "Kentucky Cycle" is the lawyer's first project on Broadway -- and the most expensive nonmusical production in Broadway history. It's a huge endeavor -- 21 actors playing 100 roles, covering 200 years of American history -- but because of its reviews, its prospects are almost as bleak as its depiction of life in the coal mines.

The same beginner's status is true for "Cyrano's" Joop van den Ende, the Holland-based producer who has a great deal of experience staging Dutch versions of such shows as "Cabaret" and "ThePhantom of the Opera," but who is rolling very big dice for his New York debut. The ante for "Cyrano" is $7 million, putting it nearly in the same costly league as "Phantom."

The exit of Mr. Rich, the Times' drama critic, who is becoming the paper's pop culture columnist in December, has added to the general sense of uncertainty, although probably few in the industry will bewail the departure of the man dubbed "the Butcher of Broadway."

But the entire nature of the Times' stage coverage -- all-important to the theater industry -- has been transformed. Earlier this year, the paper's longtime second-string theater critic, Mel Gussow, was replaced by a young magazine writer, Ben Brantley, who so far has proved himself almost as cautious a critic as Mr.


Gussow. And with the departure of Mr. Rich will come the elevation of the Times' Sunday theater columnist, David Richards, to the aisle seat, while 69-year-old film critic Vincent Canby will take over Mr. Richards' Sunday slot.of plaintiff and formulated his opinions before plaintiff was treated by Dr. Maneice and there is no evidence that Dr. Loehr relied on the opinions of Dr. Maneice in his testimony; and (B) that Dr. Loehr was never tendered or qualified as an expert witness. We disagree.

A
Dr. Loehr treated plaintiff from a time shortly after the 25 December 1991 automobile accident until 14 April 1993 when he last saw her. He recommended that plaintiff see a specialist in rheumatology at Duke, and plaintiff saw Dr. Maneice in December 1992. Prior to his deposition testimony being taken, Dr. Loehr had received records from Dr. Maneice which set out her findings and opinions about plaintiff. Those records, which were in Dr. Loehr's file, were marked as "Plaintiff's Exhibit 8" and


introduced into evidence at the trial without objection. Dr. Loehr also had medical records in his file from the emergency room at Durham County General Hospital and from a physical therapist who had treated plaintiff. After stating his qualifications, Dr. Loehr was specifically asked if he was "prepared to give ... an opinion about [plaintiff's] condition based on [his] examination of her and review of her medical records." (Emphasis added.) He replied that he was prepared to do this.
Dr. Loehr also testified that he had reviewed some of the records of plaintiff from Duke. Moreover, when Dr. Loehr was asked whether he talked with plaintiff when he last saw her in April 1993 regarding any permanent disability she might have, he answered that "[b]ased on the symptoms whichshe still described to me, the medications that the specialist at Duke had placed her on, I told her that I felt she was going to have a chronic, permanent problem." (Emphasis added.) This evidence indicates that Dr. Loehr's opinion testimony was based, at least in part, on his review of the findings and opinions of other medical experts, including *447 Dr. Maneice. That is permissible under the provisions of Rule 703.
Defendant's contention that Dr. Loehr had completed his treatment of plaintiff prior to receiving the medical records from Duke, and therefore could not have relied on them in forming his opinion, is unpersuasive. Although Dr. Loehr had completed his active treatment of plaintiff as defendant suggests, he expressed his opinion as to plaintiff's functional capacity in a


by defendant on cross-examination about his background. This evidence tends to show that Dr. Loehr is an orthopedic surgeon, graduated from medical school, and completed an internship and residency program in surgery. He has been a general surgeon in North Carolina since 1972 and has clinical surgery appointments at both Duke University and the University of North Carolina.
Defendant did not object to Dr. Loehr's credentials either at the time of the deposition or at the pretrial hearing where defendant objected to several portions of the deposition on hearsay grounds. He did not object at that time, however, that the doctor was unqualified to express opinions. Defendant has waived any objection to Dr. Loehr's testifying as an expert, and this assignment of error is overruled. See State v. Westall,her mind about the cause of your condition?
A. No.
MR. KINCAID: Objection.
THE COURT: Overruled.
Although defendant complains about the admission of the testimony, defendant opened the door to such inquiry on his crossexamination of plaintiff. On cross-examination, plaintiff was thoroughly questioned about aspects of her treatment at Duke which were not the subject of her direct examination. The cross-examination was focused in part on attempting to show that plaintiff's ongoing problems might be the result of depression and spousal abuse. On redirect examination, it was proper for plaintiff to respond to that line of questioning by stating what she had been told by her doctor at Duke about the relationship between her condition and depression. Further, plaintiff was asked on cross-examination to read a letter sent to her from Dr.

City councillors approved hiring a social media co-ordinator for Hamilton's transit system on Monday. It's converting one of its vacant ticket-agent positions and adding a few thousand extra to the operating budget to pay for the new role.

There were several things we needed to act upon. This was one of them. - David Dixon, head of Hamilton transit

Right now, HSR is not on Facebook, Twitter, or any other form of social media. When David Dixon, outgoing head of transit, arrived in 2014, that surprised him.

"There were several things we needed to act upon," he said. "This was one of them."

The new co-ordinator will be hired as soon as possible, Dixon said. He or she will


finally take HSR to Twitter and Facebook, acting as a much-needed digital face when it comes to Hamilton transit.

The new role will include apprising people on delays and other relevant in-the-moment information, as well as overall policy changes, Dixon said. It will also get feedback from people.

In Dixon's former job with the TTV, he said, "we used it extensively."

On this appeal, the objectors have no quarrel with the observation that the will speaks for itself, but "do strongly challenge the principle, implicit in the court's second premise, that a grant of discretion to the trustees *593 makes intent of the testator an immaterial factor in the administration of the trust."
Appellant objectors cite the trust provision that encouraged prudent asset determinations in favor of subsequent beneficiaries, and note each trust was drawn such that the corpus was to pass to the other trusts rather than the named beneficiary's relatives if that beneficiary predeceased the settlor. They conclude that the primary purpose of the trust was to assure maximum income to the current income beneficiaries.
Undoubtedly, unless qualification to the contrary is present, a settlor desires his trustee


to derive the highest rate of return on the principal. The stated intent of the settlor, that his primary beneficiaries receive the benefit of decisions where the trustee may prudently either increase current income or aid subsequent beneficiaries through a course that will increase the future value of the principal, loses something in the translation when the objectors conclude an intent of "as much income to the trust beneficiaries as possible." A benefit flow to the primary beneficiaries could perhaps be maximized by liquidating all properties, even at a loss, and then paying annuities to the primary beneficiaries and distributing any unreleased payments to the relatives upon the primary beneficiaries' death, which clearly contradicts the instruction that these subsequent beneficiaries receive the principal of the trusts.
None of theall items in the estate, detailed explanation of the distribution problems involved, and the effect on present income beneficiaries who range in age from the mid-twenties to mid-fifties. This decision of the trustees will be considered only in relation to this particular sale, as discussed in the context of the basis for the surcharge.
When counsel for the objectors sought to examine the employee of the executor Chemical Bank on his interpretation of the intent of the testator, he infringed on the province of the court and additionally misconceived the nature of the preceding testimony. He responded to the objection to the question's form and materiality by proposing that the employee had stated that the sale judgment was based on the contents of the will and on what they


to raise it. In requesting post-hearing *595 briefs, the probate court posed the issues for counsel and indicated he would entertain argument on the construction of the will to the sale and the existence of loss to the estate.
Fiduciary breach.
The objectors challenge the probate court's conclusion that no fiduciary breach occurred in the transaction involved here. They originally characterized the sale procedure as inappropriate to procure a price that would adequately reflect its value. Objectors attack the discretionary rationale for the sale, especially in light of the income producing value of the property.
McAuliffe was a "foreign representative" under sec. 868.03 (1), Stats., an executor granted letters by the state of New York. His performance in the ancillary proceedings is therefore measured by his powers and obligations as anthe duties of a trustee were involved. Allocation between the trusts and the other residuary gift was actually involved, which removes the decision to the executor's level, although concern for the future trust obligation undoubtedly existed. The later testimony of Clark, an officer of Chemical Bank, indicated that the discretion of the executors was the operative circumstance. He noted that many of the factors compelling the early decision to liquidate remained unabated at the close of the will contests, and that some of these factors still existed at the time of the accounting hearing two years after the instant sale. Specifically, the estate was mainly composed of numerous diverse real property holdings which were difficult to evaluate. Clark stressed that there were great potential liabilities against the estate


beneficiaries that the executor owes his general obligation to, not just the beneficiaries of the residuary trust. Objectors here have failed to address the proper issues and thus failed in their burden to prove that the discretionary rationale of the executors was inappropriate under the circumstances.
This conclusion follows from reviewing their main effort to demonstrate that the sale was improper as it did not equal the value to the residuary trust of the income from the property. The needs of the estate as a whole were ignored in their argument. The witness Clark clarified that there were general requirements for cash in the estate. Lack of necessity for sale was not shown.
As counsel for the objectors noted, a schedule or priority of liquidation should have been established, withGuests at Wednesday's 20th-annual meeting for UNITY of Greater New Orleans included most of the national stars for fighting homelessness, because of the Housing First conference that's being held in New Orleans at the Astor Crowne Plaza.

Barbara Poppe, head of the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness and the federal point person for homelessness spoke, as did Nan Roman, head of the National Alliance to End Homelessness, who "invented" the idea of ending homelessness in 2000, when -- armed with research showing that new strategies like Housing First keep even the most complex homeless people housed -- she urged cities and states to create 10-year plans to end homelessness. Nearly 250 have now done so.

Even Poppe's agency recently released its own 10-year plan for the federal government called Opening


Doors.

The city of New Orleans and Mayor Mitch Landrieu's new appointee, homelessness czarina Stacy Horn-Koch, used Opening Doors at a template for the city's new plan, released in November. Roman went through its strengths and weaknesses point by point at the meeting, noting where the plan lacked detail about who will pay for and do what.

When Poppe took the podium, she pointed at Roman. "Do everything she says" to improve the plan, Poppe said, noting that she saw two advantages in New Orleans: the seasoned outreach teams and caseworkers at UNITY and a "fully engaged" partner at City Hall.

"I wish I had in every city what you have here: a mayor fully committed to ending homelessness."The San Antonio Spurs have now lost three games in a row after a listless 90-81 defeat at the hands of the Utah Jazz on Monday night. This latest loss dropped the Spurs to 34-22, which is seventh in the Western Conference and three games ahead of the surging Oklahoma City Thunder.

When it comes to San Antonio struggling during the regular season, it's easy to pay no mind and assume everything will be ok once the postseason rolls around. However, there could be a real problem festering here: The subpar play of Tony Parker.

Parker signed a three-year, $43 million contract extension in August, a worthy commitment considering his contributions during the last few playoff runs. The 32-year-old was in fine form to start this season, averaging 17.3 points


by Stephen Curry, scoring just two points to Curry's 25. Parker didn't make a single shot, with his only points coming on two free throws. Not surprisingly, San Antonio was destroyed by Golden State.

Then, Parker put forth another wretched effort in the loss to Utah. He scored just five points on 2-of-9 shooting, and he turned the ball over four times. The Spurs had a whopping 22 turnovers on the night.

Parker's erratic play has been a big reason for San Antonio's regression on offense this season. The Spurs' offensive rating sits at just 103.6 this season, which is a pedestrian 12th in the league, per NBA.com. That mark is down from 108.2 in last year's regular season and a whopping 112.7 in the postseason, when Parker was excellent.

Theguard is putting up .788 Points Per Possession as the pick-and-roll ball-handler this season, which is in the 59th percentile of the NBA, according to Synergy Sports Technology. That's down from .925 PPP in 2013-14, which was in the 89th percentile.

It's clear that Parker's inability to get in the lane at will and create is hurting the Spurs' offense. He needs to find that part of his game again if San Antonio is going to make another deep playoff run. But the veteran point guard isn't the only one who needs to find his game. Kawhi Leonard has dealt with injuries this season and hasn't found a groove when healthy. Manu Ginobili's efficiency has naturally dipped at age 37, and Boris Diaw's shooting has fallen off a cliff.

We


know better than to count out Gregg Popovich's Spurs, but it's perfectly fair to question if this truly is the end of the line for this wildly successful group. The Western Conference Playoffs will be a gauntlet, and these guys might not have another deep run in them against a string of elite teams. The way it's going, it'll take quite the turnaround for San Antonio to reach a third consecutive NBA Finals.

So with slightly addled brains but a newfound purpose, we stumbled to the airport shuttle bus that took us to the lovely and extremely well preserved LA Union Station. We caught the Surfliner down the coast, and with half concious grins watched the surfers paddling out as we sped through the lovely landscape. At Oceanside we found our way to a bus that stopped at the Wal Mart near Camp Pendlton, a mere four mile walk from home.

Reports of the disease did not reoccur as much, and, in fact, often stopped after vaccination programs in the north, but they would reoccur in the south. He proposed that, in contrast to southern alkaline steppe soils, the acid taiga soils in the north did not allow the persistence of spores. He also noted that the north had a much more extreme insect harassment, especially the June 15-July 15tabanid season, compared to the south, with a clear effect on the well-being and immune status of people and animals. He postulated that the source of infection in the north was from spores in the small areas of alkaline soil where domestic animals were kept. The peracute infections that developed in a few animals would be spread by tabanids and the stress due to the insects would reduce the animals' resistance to anthrax infection.

wildebeest in the Selous Game Reserve in Tanzania in the early 1970s (at the time isolated from livestock and domestication) might illustrate such a relationship. The region's carnivores all moved to the wildebeest calving area where the wildebeest had concentrated to take advantage of the lush green short grass. During this very hot and humid period, tabanids were oppressive and anthrax was rampant. Rather than predate the young, the carnivores would scavenge the anthrax carcasses. Recruitment more than offset the anthrax mortality. The overall wildebeest population was thriving, actually exceeding its resource capacity with significant areas of over grazing. However, overall, the grazing resulted in an expanded area of shortgrass at the expense of the surrounding shrub land.

In 1966, Chuck Mabery bought a cattle ranch that dated back to the late 19th century, planting the seeds of the Blazin' M Ranch. After stints herding and growing vegetables, the flood of 1993 forced the Mabery family to start over, inspiring them to show off their musical talents at a traditional chuck-wagon dinner staged on the property. Fully renovated in 2010, the ranch now hosts an authentic Arizona frontier town where visitors can experience the cowboy life through such activities as lassoing mechanical steers, shooting wax bullets out of a real Colt .45, and learning how to easily covert ten-gallon hats into metric. A selection of shops fits customers out in Western-themed apparel, the copper Spur Saloon serves local wines and microbrews, and amuseum delves into the history of the ranch, pioneer-era Arizona, and the Yavapai-Apache Nation. An old-time photo studio, "Pistols and Petticoats", allows groups to have their likeness captured while wearing Victorian costumes. At the museum, the unique Wood'n West Gallery enthralls visitors with moving dioramas of Western life, hand carved over 30 years by a master whittler.

Running with 1,500-pound bulls is inherently dangerous—the organizers of the stateside Running with the Bulls don't deny that. But that doesn't mean that the thrill of Pamplona has to come with the mistreatment of the animals, which is why participants who hit, slap, harass, or otherwise impede the progress of the bulls will be removed from the venue. With those distractions aside, spectators can focus on the essence of the run: watching


12 horn-swinging bulls dash through a quarter-mile course on the heels of runners who must have heard that this event was called Running with the Lambs.

Since its founding in 1934 by archetypal cowboy Roy Rogers and a group of like-minded cowpeople, the Sons of the Pioneers have sung classic compositions chronicling life in the Old West to audiences worldwide—earning them entry into the Country Music Hall of Fame and National Cowboy Hall of Fame. A veritable Supreme Court of country music, the sextet's rotating lineup of members perform forseveral decades before retiring, and a mandatory majority vote from the Senate is required for new cowboy singers. The venerable current roster still burns through fiddle and guitar strings like undomesticated flames fanned by the mellifluous breeze of six-part harmonies. In keeping with the authentic music and Western themes, the Sons of the Pioneers encourages audiences to applaud the performance with hearty "yee-haws," but asks them to refrain from firing six-shooters wildly into the air.

Art Catalogue Tells All

As noted in Allison's post of yesterday, the provenance of James Turrell's Afrum (White) can be traced back to the Art and Technology exhibition of 1971. We've recently made it easy to learn about this fabled show by putting its catalogue online. Okay, maybe that doesn't sound that exciting, but trust me. It's a different kind of catalogue—candid, original, and often very funny. "I loved the catalogue," the sculptor Claes Oldenburg once said. "It's full of gossip and history and time passing and attitudes."

It was written by then-LACMA curators Maurice Tuchman and Jane Livingston and entitled A Report on the Art and Technology Program of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art1967–1971. It tells the story of how LACMA, then around two years old,

Pennsylvania Route 100 (PA 100) is a  long state highway in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania that runs from U.S. Route 202 (US 202) near West Chester north to PA 309 in Pleasant Corners. The route runs between the western suburbs of Philadelphia and the Lehigh Valley region of the state, serving Chester, Montgomery, Berks, and Lehigh counties. PA 100 intersects several important highways including US 30 in Exton, the Pennsylvania Turnpike (Interstate 76, I-76) near Lionville, US 422 near Pottstown, US 222 in Trexlertown, and I-78/US 22 in Fogelsville. PA 100 has several sections which are multi-lane divided highway with some interchanges, including between US 202 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike in Chester County, between south of Pottstown and New Berlinville, and between Trexlertown and

The route followed the Brandywine Creek through Chadds Ford to Lenape, where it ran concurrent with PA 52 to West Chester. From here, PA 62 headed north along Pottstown Pike to Pottstown, where it passed through the borough on Hanover Street. The route continued north on Farmington Avenue to Boyertown and ran through Bechtelsville and Barto on its way to Bally. PA 62 ran north along present-day PA 100 to Shimerville, where it continued to Allentown.

Fans in other parts of the city saw a white car with flashing interior green lights and a projection saying “green light” on the town hall. Lorde tweeted some pictures from the Auckland events featuring the car, sand and the lyrics all bathed in green neon light.

The single is expected to be Lorde’s first release from her eagerly anticipated second album.

The Empire State Building took only one year and 45 days to build, or more than seven million man-hours.

There are observatories on both the 86th and 102nd floors.

The building has been featured in several movies such as "An Affair to Remember," "Sleepless in Seattle," "Elf" and "The Amazing Spider-Man."

From the observation decks, visitors can see as far as 80 miles away into New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts on a clear day. The distinctive binocular viewers available around the building were made by Tower Optical company.

The tower lights are turned off on foggy nights during the spring and autumn bird migration seasons, so the lights will not confuse birds and cause them to fly


into the building.

Every year on Valentine's Day, couples who marry on the 80th floor become members of the Empire State Building Wedding Club. They receive free admission to the observatory each year on February 14 (their anniversary) thereafter.

Over thirty people have jumped to their deaths from the Empire State Building.

The Empire State Building Run-Up is an annual race up the stairs to the 86th floor (1,576 steps).

The building has 24/7 security. It is monitored with security technology, such as CCTV cameras, and the screening for visitors is similar to airport security procedures.

Addendum to Biological Evaluation

The 2007 Regional Forester’s Sensitive Species (RFSS) list was updated and finalized by the Regional Office Threatened, Endangered, and Sensitive Species (TES) program staff in September of 2013. Based on Regional Office direction, projects that are already in the analysis process outlined by the National Environmental Protection Act of 1969, as amended (NEPA), which have been through scoping and where issues have been identified, are not required to utilize the updated RFSS list. However, for this project, the Coronado National Forest reviewed the proposed project and 2013 RFSS list to determine if there were major issues or of if the project could cause a trend toward federal listing for a species on the 2013 RFSS list that was not on the 2007 RFSS list.Phytophotodermatitis due to the application of citrus hystrix as a folk remedy.
We report a case of extensive phytophotodermatitis in a hiker. This was caused by the application of the juice of a member of the Rutaceae family, Citrus hystrix, as a folk remedy to ward off biting insects. Besides the Rutaceae, plants belonging to the families Umbelliferae, Moraceae and Leguminosae also contain psoralens and can cause phytophotodermatitis. In temperate countries, cases are often seen among children playing outdoors during summer, when psoralens are most abundant in wild and garden plants.

The Twins, by the (dismal) numbers

Circumstances surrounding the Minnesota Twins being what they are--wretched, in a word--a little absurd perspective might be mildly encouraging at this point of the season: Through the first two months, the Twins have put up offensive numbers that would have had them right in the hunt for the 1968 American League pennant. That season, fans might recall, the league batting average was .238, the earned run average 2.98. Unfortunately for the Twins organization and its fans, however, the rest of the league is hitting Twins pitching like it's 1938, when the league ERA was 5.04 and teams batted a collective .289. Certainly the local professional team continues to give its paying customers plenty of reason to consider the broader definitions of theword offensive.

God love 'em, but the numbers are starting to get very ugly indeed. A few examples (and the Twins' 18-32 record through Monday's game) should suffice: Despite an epidemic of home runs that is fast approaching professional softball levels, Minnesota remains last in the American League, by a comfortable margin, with 34 long balls. The pitching staff, meanwhile, has shown none of its offensive counterpart's resistance to the trend and has taken an early and comfortable lead in the home-runs-allowed department, serving up 80 gopher balls, including 23 in 6 games versus the Seattle Mariners. The Twins are right about where they always seem to be in pitching: Their 5.63 ERA is 12th in the 14-team American League. The hitters have fared just as badly; the team's


8.03 ERA, with opposing batters hitting .331 against him in his 11 starts thus far.

In fairness, one might also point out that the schedulers have not exactly done the Twins any favors; through the first two months the team has had 22 games against the powerful New York, Cleveland, Seattle, and Texas ballclubs, for a 3-19 record. This means they've played .500 ball against the rest of the competition. But again: small comfort.

The Twins' performance has been particularly disheartening when you consider the comparisons early optimists were drawing between this year's rookie-dominated roster and the 1982 team, whose group of first-year players would later make up the nucleus of the 1987 world champions. That '82 squad included Kent Hrbek, Tom Brunansky, Gary Gaetti, Tim Laudner, and Frank Viola,and, it should be noted, lost 102 games. But the performance of this year's model is alarmingly more reminiscent of a young Twins team of more recent vintage.

The 1995 Minnesota team included a large batch of touted young players, many of them playing their first full season with the Twins or making their major-league debuts. The roster included Rich Becker, Scott Stahoviak, Marty Cordova, Dan Masteller, Matt Lawton, Ron Coomer, Denny Hocking, David McCarty, Brad Radke, LaTroy Hawkins, Frank Rodriguez, and Dave Stevens, and was regarded in some quarters as a promising group of prospects, some combination of whom would help to restore the team's fortunes down the road. Cordova was the league's rookie of the year that season, and when you consider that the team also included


established veterans like Kirby Puckett, Chuck Knoblauch, Pat Meares, Kevin Tapani, and Scott Erickson, it seems incredible not only that they finished in last place in the Central Division, but that four years later only a handful of those players remain with the team. It's pathetic that that season now seems like such ancient history, and even more pathetic that the Twins haven't been within spitting distance of .500 since 1992.

You'd like to think that better things are in store for the current batch of young players, and it's far too early to write any of them off. (All right, you can probably go ahead and write off Chris Latham.) Although the team's one step forward, ten steps back routine has long since grown old, you have tokeep in mind that these Twins rookies have been forced into a remarkably difficult situation. The majority of the first-year players have had limited experience and success even in the minor leagues--many of them have never played above Double A--and they've found themselves thrown right in the middle of one of the most prodigious explosions of offense in major league history, while playing for a severely handicapped team with an uncertain future. In terms of pitching, with the league ERA having soared above five runs a game, the bottom line is that many nights the young Twins pitchers don't have a prayer. There has never been a more trying time to try to break into the American League.

New Browns General Manager John Dorsey continues to build an actual football staff, as he approaches his first and most important draft.

According to Chris Mortensen of ESPN, Scot McCloughan has joined the Browns as a personnel consultant.

McCloughan has been out of work but active on Twitter since being first from his job as Washington’s General Manager last March.

The former 49ers G.M. came up in the Ron Wolf era of Packers scouts, and worked with Dorsey there.

While Dorsey has already built a solid network of personnel men (including former Packers co-workers Eliot Wolf and Alonzo Highsmith), McCloughan adds even more depth to his bench this year.

Tubes", by I. M. Wilson. (IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, Volume CE-21, No. 1, February 1975.)
The establishment of the most effective half-angles in electron guns has been based almost entirely on the electromechanical design parameters of the lower end sections. The factors that affect formation of the crossover and subsequent prefocusing of the beam prior to its entry into the main focus lens and the resultant half-angle, include the configuration of the first and second grids, spacing between the cathode and first grid, and between the first and second grids and the following element of the main focus lens, aperture sizes, and the configurations of the grids as designed to establish the prefocusing fields. Once these factors are established, being of mechanical structure they are relatively fixed andtime was devoted to handling contract grievances for Union members.  The Secretary/Treasurer did not review invoices submitted to the Union or checks signed by Seidman on behalf of the Union.

When Timothy Brown became President of the Union in April of 1991, the Union was in poor financial condition.  In 1992, Seidman informed Brown that Seidman had cashed the last of the Union's cash reserves which had been held in million dollar certificates of deposit.  Approximately five to six percent of the Union's total expenditures, or $30,000 a month, were incurred by the Union-published monthly newspaper.  In the fall of 1992, Brown decided to print the newspaper on a bimonthly basis to reduce costs.

4
Ronald Schoop was an independent contractor who provided printing services to the


Union through the corporate entity "Mercury Graphics" from approximately 1978 to October 1993.  Initially, Schoop provided general printing services, including business cards, envelopes, and wall calendars.  During 1985, Schoop began printing the Union newspaper.  In October of 1993, Schoop briefly became an employee of the Union until his resignation in December of 1993 when a scheme of embezzlement between Seidman and Schoop was discovered.2  Schoop had an office located in the Union headquarters, but no printing services were actually performed at the Union office.  To obtain payment for his printing services, Schoop submitted bills to the Union which were paid by Seidman.  In late May of 1993, Beverly Gutmann, the Union's Assistant Comptroller, informed Brown that there had been a potential doublebilling for the Union newspaper.  Brown questioned Seidman about the possible double billing, and Seidman responded that the additional charges were for editorial changes that Brown had made in a recent issue of the paper.  Brown did not question Seidman's answer because he had substantially rewritten large sections of that edition of the paper.

5
When Brown later inquired about the expenses associated with producing the newspaper during the summer of 1993, Seidman responded that the cost of the newspaper had not decreased even though the paper was being published bimonthly instead of monthly.  Brown was not satisfied with Seidman's explanation of the expenses associated with publishing the newspaper.  He became even more suspicious in November of 1993 when Gutmann approached him again about double charges


for Schoop's printing services for the December 1992/January 1993, February/March 1993, and May/June 1993 editions of the Union newspaper.  Gutmann told Brown that she believed Seidman and Schoop were embezzling funds from the Union.

6
Because of these mounting suspicions of financial impropriety, Brown hired an outside forensic auditor, Gunther Borris, to perform an audit.  On December 24, 1993, Borris met Brown and Hopkins, the Secretary/Treasurer, at the Union office.  Borris spent the entire day reviewing the Union's financial records, particularly the potential double billings for the Union newspaper.  As a result of Borris' investigation, Brown learned for the first time that checks had been issued to Ronald Schoop personally for invoices submitted by Mercury Graphics and that 1099 forms had not been issued to Schoop.3 Borris also confirmed that there had been at least two double billings for the Union newspaper.

7
On December 28, 1993, Borris submitted his financial report at a meeting of the International Subcommittee, a group of five individuals charged with managing the affairs of the Union during time peri ods between meetings of the General Executive Board.  During the meeting, Seidman and Schoop were questioned about the allegations of double billings.  As a result of Borris' audit and the December 28 meeting, the Subcommittee asked Seidman for his resignation.  Seidman signed a resignation letter on December 28, 1993.  Ronald Schoop, who was at that time a salaried employee of the Union, resigned one day later.

8
In March of 1995, Schoop confessed to agents of the Department


of Labor's Office of Labor Racketeering to conspiring with Seidman to embezzle funds from the Union and agreed to participate as a government informant.  In that capacity, Schoop made two recorded telephone calls to Seidman, on March 9, 1995, and March 21, 1995.  Schoop agreed to go to Seidman's residence wearing an electronic recording device and record a conversation with Seidman on May 23, 1995.  Upon arriving at Seidman's residence, Schoop knocked on Seidman's door approximately ninety times.  When he received no answer, Schoop opened the unlocked door and saw Seidman in the hallway near the door.  When Schoop asked Seidman what he was doing, Seidman responded that he had been riding his exercise bicycle in the basement and closed the door tothe basement, as if he had just come upstairs.  Seidman led Schoop to the kitchen where the two proceeded to have a conversation for the next forty-five minutes.4II.

9
On May 14, 1996, Seidman was charged in a thirteen count indictment with one count of conspiracy to embezzle funds from a labor union and twelve counts of embezzlement from a labor union or aiding and abetting the same.  The indictment alleged that Seidman conspired with Schoop from approximately 1987 to July 1993 to embezzle approximately $800,000 in a complicated kickback scheme by "directing" or "causing" Schoop to submit fraudulent invoices for services from Mercury Graphics and other corporate entities.

10
A two-week trial was held in September of 1996.  Schoop testified that he and Seidman participated in a kickback


scheme.5  Schoop testified that he submitted fraudulent invoices to the Union from his corporation, Mercury Graphics, and that Seidman issued checks on the Union's checking account to Schoop personally.6  Schoop explained that he cashed the checks and gave approximately eighty percent of the proceeds to Seidman.  Schoop also testified that he gave Seidman and his family gifts and made payments for expenses incurred by Seidman and his family. The Government contended that the gifts and payments were part of the kickback scheme.

11
Seidman's version of events was that he received gifts and payments from Schoop because he and Schoop were close friends for many years.  Seidman also claimed that Schoop gave him cash to be held in trust for Schoop's son because Schoop was addictedinside Seidman's house without express invitation because Seidman voluntarily consented to the ensuing conversation.  The district court determined that Seidman's consent to the conversation was manifested by Seidman's attempt to create the appearance that, out of politeness to Schoop, he had not heard Schoop's knocks.8  According to the district court, Seidman also manifested his consent to the conversation by never asking Schoop to leave and by speaking to Schoop at length about various topics including family relations and their personal lives.  Moreover, the district court noted that Schoop never acted in a threatening or hostile manner toward Seidman, so Seidman was not coerced into the conversation.

17
"[O]ne of the specifically established exceptions to the requirements of both a warrant and probable cause is a search that


that Seidman's actions toward Schoop after Schoop's entry constitute intervening circumstances.  Almost immediately after Schoop entered the home, any taint arising from Schoop's entry was attenuated by Seidman's consent to the conversation.10  Shortly after Schoop opened the door to Seidman's house, Seidman shut the front door behind Schoop, and Seidman motioned him into the kitchen.  These intervening acts indicated Seidman's willingness to engage in a conversation with Schoop.  More importantly, shutting the door behind Schoop and motioning him into the kitchen were independent acts of free will by Seidman.  For the following forty-five minutes, Seidman and Schoop engaged in a conversation in Seidman's kitchen, regarding their families, personal lives, Union business, and Schoop's tax dilemma.  Seidman never asked Schoop to leave.

The thirdSimilarly, in Brown, police officers broke into Brown's apartment and searched it without probable cause and without a warrant.  See Brown, 422 U.S. at 592, 95 S.Ct. 2254.   Brown was returning to his apartment when a police officer pointed a revolver at him and told him he was under arrest.  See id.   Brown subsequently was held at gunpoint and searched.  See id. at 593, 95 S.Ct. 2254.   The degree of coercion resulting from the police officers' illegal acts in Wong Sun and Brown v. Illinois simply was not present here.  According to Seidman's own testimony, he and Schoop had been friends for many years.  In fact, Schoop's visit to Seidman's house that day was not entirely unexpected.


recklessly or in good faith.  Conversely, a courteous command has the same effect on the arrestee whether the officer thinks he has probable cause or knows that he does not.  In either event, if the Fourth Amendment is violated, the admissibility question will turn on the causal relationship between that violation and the defendant's subsequent confession.

57
In this case Schoop, who seemed desperate to engage Seidman in incriminating conversation, deliberately entered Seidman's home without permission.  In addition, the federal agents directing Schoop had a cavalier attitude about Seidman's constitutional rights.  This was confirmed during Schoop's second (agent-directed) attempt to gain entrance into Seidman's home on June 19, 1995, about three weeks after the first (wired) visit.  Schoop's repeated knocks at the front door wentunanswered, as did his call to Seidman from his (Schoop's) car phone.  When Schoop returned to where the agents were parked, one agent asked, "Is his door locked this time?," and Schoop answered, "Yeah."  This confirms that the agents condoned Schoop's violation of Seidman's Fourth Amendment rights on May 23 and that they were ready to encourage the very same violation on June 19.  I can only conclude that Schoop's unconstitutional entry, and his handlers' complicity in it, was flagrant and purposeful.  The third factor also weighs against the government.

C.

All of the Brown factors cut against the government.  No significant time elapsed between Schoop's illegal entry on May 23 and his conversation with Seidman.  There were no intervening circumstances that broke the


in error, the error is harmless and we must affirm the conviction.  See United States v. Melgar, 139 F.3d 1005, 1016 (4th Cir.1998).

60
Here, the evidence of guilt, even absent the taped conversation of May 23, was strong.  See ante at 544-545, 546-547.   Moreover, the government's main point about the May 23 tape, that Seidman was transparent in his failure to deny Schoop's suggestions of wrongdoing, is equally supported by an admissible tape that was also played to the jury.  That was the tape of a telephone conversation on March 21 between Schoop and Seidman, in which Seidman also failed to deny Schoop's suggestions that they were in the middle of an illegal scheme.3

61
The prosecutor devoted a considerable amount of time in his closingthe Internal Revenue Service setting forth the amount of the income.  See 26 U.S.C.A. § 6041(a) (West Supp.1998).  Beverly Gutmann testified at trial that the Union typically accounted for payments made to individuals other than salaried employees by the issuance of 1099 forms.  Gutmann further testified that Seidman instructed Gutmann not to issue a 1099 form for Schoop for the money paid to him personally.  John Gorman, who succeeded Seidman as Comptroller for the Union, testified that upon learning that no 1099 forms had been issued to Schoop, they were then issued and filed with the IRS

 The tape-recorded conversation between Seidman and Schoop related to Schoop's tax dilemma, Union business, and Schoop's and Seidman's personal lives.  Although Seidman did not explicitly confess

And the main villian, Drakul Karfang? Well, she's about as
“evil dragon” as you can get, with her love of gold, corruption. Not to mention sly, cunning, and the ability to corrupt and enslave those around her making her a very scary and compelling villain. Not to mention, she eats babies. Eep.

As for the book itself, the story comes
off half like an old time fantasy story, and half like a theatrical play, with the way the story is narrated and staging of the
characters. Inner thoughts of characters are either narrated to us

Wonder Woman, finding herself alone, finally breaks down and has a

return for the Brent E. Crummey Trust. In each of these returns, Crummey
reported his wages as trust income, but claimed “fiduciary fees” and “income
distributions” that left the trust with a tax liability of zero. Furthermore,
Crummey never claimed any personal income relating to these fiduciary fees
or income distributions. Therefore, he again asserted that, despite his income,
he owed no taxes. In fact, in each of the years in dispute, Crummey requested
a tax refund for the total amounts withheld by his employer. He received a
refund for the full amount withheld in 2005 on May 30, 2006, and for the full
amount withheld from 2006 on March 13, 2007. In 2008, the IRS did not


Crummey was the equivalent of the entire amount of taxes due to the
IRS. The Crummeys cannot then use the fraudulent refund as a shield to
protect them from the penalties owed on the unpaid amounts. Crummey
received a windfall by receiving credit for his 2005 withholding because the
plain language of the statute dictated such a result. The timing of his 2006 tax
refund demands a different outcome.
       The Crummeys also argue that the Commissioner did not take various
payments made, beginning in 2013, into account when determining the
penalties.   But these payments came too late to affect any penalty owed
because they did not come “on or before” April 16, 2007, “the date prescribed
for payment” for his 2006 tax return. Furthermore, the payments came years
after theNew York Film Festival

The New York Film Festival (NYFF) is an annual film festival held every autumn in New York City, presented by the Film Society of Lincoln Center (FSLC). Founded in 1963 by Richard Roud and Amos Vogel with the support of Lincoln Center president William Schuman, it is one of the longest-running and most prestigious film festivals in the United States.[1] The non-competitive festival is centered around a “Main Slate” of typically 20-30 feature films, with sidebars for experimental cinema and retrospectives, and recently introduced documentary and trans-media sections. Programming is led by a rotating Selection Committee, chaired by the Director of the New York Film Festival, with many committee members remaining from year to year. Separate committees and individuals program the short film, experimental, and


trans-media sections.

Kent Jones has been the festival Director since 2013.[2] As of 2018, the main Selection Committee included Jones (chair); Dennis Lim, FSLC Director of Programming; and Florence Almozini, FSLC Associate Director of Programming.[3]

The 56th New York Film Festival took place from September 28 to October 14, 2018.[4]

Contents

The Main Slate is the Festival’s primary section, a program typically featuring 25-30 feature-length films, intending to reflect the current state of cinema. The program is a mix of major international art house films from the festival circuit, new discoveries, and studio releases targeting awards season. The studio films are often selected as Opening Night, Centerpiece, and Closing Night presentations. [5]

First distinguished from the general Special Events category as a series of three individually-titled programs in 2013, the non-fiction sidebar hasbeen a single program under the name “Spotlight on Documentary” since 2014. The section includes 10-15 feature-length films.[6][7]

Previously named “Views From the Avant-Garde”, Projections is the Festival’s experimental showcase, presenting many programs of short and feature-length work. Initiated in 1997 by co-programmers Mark McElhatten and Gavin Smith, the section was re-titled in 2014 following McElhatten’s departure. It has since been curated by Dennis Lim and Aily Nash, along with Smith through 2015.[8][9]

The NYFF's first programmer, Richard Roud, was recruited by Lincoln Center President William Schuman in 1962. Boston-born Roud was 33 years old at the time and based in London where he worked as a film critic for The Guardian and programmed the London Film Festival. Though Roud maintained his home base in London, he recruited Amos Vogel


of the legendary Cinema 16 film club as his New York-based co-programmer. The first edition of the festival opened on September 10, 1963 with Luis Buñuel's The Exterminating Angel. In 1966, Roud and Vogel formed the festival's first selection committee, consisting of Arthur Knight and Andrew Sarris; Susan Sontag was added the next year. Vogel resigned from his position as Festival Director in 1968. Though Roud was previously designated Program Director, he presided over the festival from 1969 to 1987.

Roud's 25 years at the festival were characterized by a focus on the European art cinema of the postwar years and rise of auteurism.[17]

Richard Peña, then 34, took over as lead programmer in 1988. The Queens native was already an accomplished film historian, academic, and programmer. Prior to hiswork with NYFF, he worked at the Film Center of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Peña came to NYFF as a seasoned festival-goer who held Roud in high esteem. During his stint as programmer (which also listed 25 years), Peña honored the festival's traditions and unique character - retaining the selection committee process, the non-competitive format, the post-screening director Q&As, and the festival's strict selectivity - while also working to expand NYFF's somewhat Eurocentric focus. Filmmakers like Hou Hsiao-hsien, Manoel de Oliveira, Leos Carax, Raúl Ruiz, and Krzystof Kieslowski were introduced to NYFF audiences during the Roud era, and became regulars under Peña. After 25 years as Program Director and head of the NYFF selection committee, Peña led his final year at NYFF in 2012,


during the festival's 50th presentation.[18]

After Richard Peña's departure, Robert Koehler briefly took over year-round programming duties, while Kent Jones, who left The Film Society of Lincoln Center in 2009 to serve as Executive Director of the World Cinema Foundation, returned to lead NYFF. Jones began his programming career at Film Forum and the Rotterdam Film Festival, before joining The Film Society of Lincoln Center in 1998 as Associate Director of Programming and a member of the NYFF programming committee.all

In ancient times,
men who were chosen to have great authority in a king or queen’s house were
often made eunuchs, that is they were castrated. One of these men, who had
become the highest treasury official for the queen of Ethiopia, once traveled to Jerusalem to worship. Apparently he had
become a Jewish proselyte and made a pilgrimage to worship at the Temple. On his way back
to Ethiopia,
the man read Isaiah’s fourth servant song, Isaiah chapter fifty-three. The Holy
Spirit moved Philip to go to the man and to speak to him about the Scripture.
He proclaimed the message of Jesus to the Ethiopian from that text. Because of

fans will tune in to see the various events of the Olympics. Athletics, culture, and pagan religion were all celebrated during the Olympic festival. The Greek festival that was second only to the Olympics was called the Isthmian games which were hosted on the Isthmus (or neck) of Corinth. This was a narrow land-bridge that connected the penisula with the mainland. On this narrow passageway was a temple for Poseidon. This was in the territory of Corinth, who was the host city. The games took place every two years, the year before and the year after the Olympics which were every four years. Of course the Romans took over these traditions, and added many of their own Caeserean cultic traditions. The Apostle Paul would have been at thegames during his stay in the city. The Corinthians knew athletics well and all of the things surrounding them. They would have been genuinely proud of hosting their own festival and games which attracted people from all over the Greek world.

Contrary to popular belief, this passage is not about the Christian life in general. There are other references to athletics in the New Testament which are to promote endurance in the faith, but here we are talking about evangelism. The Apostle has just finished a lenghthy passage on his own personal sacrifice in order that the Gospel may be heard. He said that he had rights as an Apostle, but he did not claim them. He said, "For though I am free from all men, I have made

One of the premier sporting events of ancient times until now was/is foot racing. There will be many competitors in each race, but only one can win, the first to cross the finish line. The Apostle encourages the Corinthians, and us by extension, to run in such a way that we may win the prize. We can discuss all sorts of things on this note. A runner must devote himself to years of training in order to even have the opportunity of competing in an event. His diet would have to be strict and healthy, his sleeping habitshandsome man, and a man who was head and shoulders taller than all
the others in Israel.
He was the first chosen to be king. Now if you follow his story from the
beginning to the end, the two do not match up. He did not finish the way that
he had begun. In the beginning he was humble. For example, he asked Samuel, “Am
I not a Benjamite, of the smallest of the tribes of Israel, and my family the least of all
the families of the tribe of Benjamin?” The Scripture says that God gave him
another heart and that all sorts of powerful signs followed him when he was
anointed king. He had great military victory, and he extended mercy to many. He
started off well, but in the end he was ungodly. He


turned away from the One
who had chosen him. He disobeyed the Holy One of Israel. He grieved and
blasphemed the Holy Spirit so that the Spirit left him. He turned to a witch
and the power of the evil one. He told his servants, “Find me a woman who is a
medium, that I may go to her and inquire of her.” He did not finish life well.
He did not continue in the Spirit.

individuals and as a church. We are celebrating eight decades of worship and

was the spokesman for the group of apostles. He was the first to say, “You are
the Christ, the Son of the living God.” He did great things in submission to
the Lord Jesus and in the power of the Holy Spirit, but he also had his
short-comings. He had the faith to leap out of the boat into the water to walk
on it, but he soon took his eyes off Christ. He was given the supernatural
insight that Jesus was the Christ, but he attempted to deter the divine plan of
redemption. He was willing to fight and die for Christ in the Garden, but he
later denied Him three times. Peter’s story has many ups and downs, even later
into the New Testament times.
