In general, a mobile communication system was developed for the purpose of providing a voice service while securing user's mobility. However, the area of the mobile communication system has been expanded gradually to data services in addition to voice services, and, at present, the mobile communication system has been developed to the extent of being capable of providing high-speed data services.
Nowadays, in the mobile communication system, there has been a need to solve a resource shortage problem due to providing of various services and to provide a greatly developed mobile communication system in accordance with a user demand to receive higher-speed services.
To cope with such a need, standardization of a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system in the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) is currently underway as one of In February 1987, NYC ordered more shoes, but Bentley refused to ship because NYC had not yet paid the November bill.  At the beginning of March, NYC sent two checks to Bentley to cover the amount due from the November shipment.  One of the checks, worth $7,960, was postdated April 1, 1987.

On March 3 and March 10, 1987, Bentley shipped additional shoes, worth $40,000, to NYC.  Bentley attempted to deposit the postdated check on April 1, but at first the bank refused to cash it because there were insufficient funds in NYC's account.  The check finally cleared the bank on April 13, 1987.  On July 7, 1987, NYC filed a petition in bankruptcy.

An Israeli attack on Syria’s Quneitra, near the Golan Heights, killed on Sunday three fighters of National Defense Forces, an official from the forces said.

The official told AFP that two fighters were also wounded in the attack on the Al-Fawwar camp near Quneitra in southwestern Syria, adding that it was unclear whether the damage was inflicted by an air strike or shelling.

Earlier on Friday, Israeli occupation army targeted positions inside Syria, claiming it was in retaliation for mortar fire that hit the northern part of the Golan Heights.

Syria’s official news agency SANA said Israel had struck a Syrian army position in the province of Quneitra on the Golan plateau, causing damage.

The NBA world, naturally, rallied its support around LeBron, with current and former players, as well as assorted other league personnel, taking to Twitter to denounce Trump’s toxic divisiveness. Arch-nemesis Steph Curry was chief among them, as both he and LeBron have set aside their on-court rivalry in the past to unite against Trump, and Curry had to more to say on the matter during a Bay Area golf tournament on Wednesday when he characterized Trump’s attack as blatantly racist.

When we were growing up, my parents put us in a Christian elementary school and then a Catholic high school. They wanted us in private school and the only ones around us were religion-based. Their ultimate goal was for us to get a good education and, as long as we were getting that, they were fine with us learning about other religions in the process.

While optical and video laryngoscopy have been studied in the emergency department, the operating room, and the routine prehospital setting, their efficacy in the tactical environment--in which operator safety is as important as intubation success--has not been evaluated. This study compared direct laryngoscopes to optical (AirTraq) and video (King Vision) laryngoscopes in a simulated tactical setting. This prospective institutional review board-approved simulation study evaluated each of the laryngoscopes in the hands of seven experienced tactical paramedics. After a one-hour training session, each tactical paramedic used each of the laryngoscopes, in a random order, on each of four different airway manikins. A tactical environment was simulated using auditory and visual immersion, and the intubations occurred on the ground with

Southbank Visitors Flock to Festive Market

Overview of Southbank’s Winter Market from the steps of Embankment Bridge. Image taken by Craig Fergus

The opening of the Southbank’s Winter Market on Friday (November 9) proved to be a tremendous success, with hundreds gathering to celebrate the upcoming festive season along the River Thames.

Lined along the Southbank are dozens of stalls selling a range of goods, including vintage scarves and hand-crafted crockery; the market itself is a stone’s throw away from the Christmas Festival, which is sponsored by Swedish Cider company Rekorderlig and is home to the famous London Starflyer swing ride.

Sharon Donovan, who is visiting the capital with her husband Mark from Winchester, confesses that she feels London is the sole place in the country where Christmas is ‘done properly’. Shesaid that being in the city during winter is like ‘living inside a romantic-comedy film’, and the way London goes over-the-top with street lights and decorations gives her a ‘true sense of Christmas’.

The Southbank Winter Market, just left of the Southbank Centre’s ‘Royal Festival Hall’, is open until January 6 2019 – entry to both the Christmas Festival and walk-through Winter Market is free, but visitors may be subject to bag searches prior to entry.

As the Washington Examiner reported :

“I know predators, and we have a predator living in the White House," the California Democrat stated.

She certainly does know predators. I have documented on these pages how Harris used her relationship with Brown to advance her career and how she currently serves with one of the sexual predators par excellence Sen.

between 2002 and 2005, and will appear in court in New York on Monday, according to three law enforcement sources…. Saturday’s arrest by the FBI-NYPD Crimes Against Children Task Force comes about 12 years after the 66-year-old financier essentially got a slap on the wrist for allegedly molesting dozens of underage girls in Florida. In an era where #MeToo has toppled powerful men, Epstein’s name was largely absent from the national conversation, until the Miami Herald published a three-part series on how his wealth, power and influence shielded him from federal prosecution.

Well, more powerful men, mainly Democrats, may be toppled, perhaps none other than one William Jefferson Clinton, according to Christine Pelosi, DNC official and daughter of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. As Fox News reports:

Christine Pelosi, a DemocraticNational Committee official and daughter of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, warned conspicuously on Saturday evening that it is "quite likely that some of our faves are implicated" in the "horrific" sex-trafficking case against politically connected financier Jeffrey Epstein… It was unclear exactly to whom Pelosi was referring, but Epstein has long been connected with high-profile figures, including Britain's Prince Andrew and former President Bill Clinton. Court documents obtained by Fox News in 2016 showed that Clinton took at least 26 trips flying aboard Epstein's private jet, known as the "Lolita Express," and apparently ditched his Secret Service detail on some of the excursions.

The belated attempt by the left to cover its hypocrisy on sexual predators by throwing Bill and Hillary Clinton under the bus once they have no

As also reported by [@ref-34], all females had three ovarioles in each of two ovaries. Ovaries were located in the posterior half of the metasoma, where they shared the limited space with other organs, including the midgut, hindgut, Malpighian tubules, and poison gland/sting apparatus. The crop occupied most of the anterior half of the metasoma. The interior cavity of the metasoma, particularly when the crop was inflated, was sometimes so crowded that larger oocytes were pressed against the inner surface of the exoskeleton and had indentations conforming to junctions of the segments. In all but one of 145 females, the longest and third-longest oocytes were in one ovary, with the second longest in the other ovary.

The present invention is directed to a selectively hardened carbon steel screw having a differential hardness profile within the head portion. A screw is provided having a head portion, a shank portion below the head, and a lower end portion or tip. The head portion has a top surface, a bottom surface, a center, an outer rim, and at least one slot in the center for engaging a driving tool. The invention also encompasses a carbon steel screw having a selectively hardened tip which facilitates initial penetration of the screw into a substrate.
In accordance with the invention, the head portion is selectively hardened in the center and at the top so that the center of the head portion near the top is harder than the


bottom of the head portion and the adjacent screw shank. Put another way, the ridges and walls defining the slot are selectively hardened at the top to provide strength and hardness and reduce damage caused by a driving tool. Yet the bottom of the head portion and the adjacent shank remain relatively soft and pliable, so that the head portion does not break away from the shank when high torque or high stress, such as shear stress, is applied.
The invention also includes a method for selectively hardening the head portion at the center and near the top. A source of heat, which can be a flame jet, is applied directly to the top and center of the head portion, causing that region to reach a temperature above 1400xc2x0— translated by Barbara Heldt and released this year in a new edition after decades out of print — follows the 18-year-old Cecily von Lindenborn as her mother attempts to find her a husband. Cecily’s days, written in prose, are filled with the pleasures of a rotely feminine aristocratic life: romance, balls, and new dresses. But at night, her dreams are narrated in poetry, sensual verses with an intense pull toward the natural world. Pavlova constructed a strikingly prescient psychological vision: a mind responding to extreme social pressure by slowly and completely separating itself into parts, but giving few external indications of change.

Review: Emma by Jane Austen

Emma (1815), a rich comedy of manners is, arguably, Jane Austen’s finest novel – a blending of her serious literary intentions with the effervescent charm of her most readable novels. The eponymous heroine, Emma Woodhouse, is a young lady who has wanted for very little in her life, raised in Highbury to believe she has few imperfections and is superior to just about everyone about her – in short, she is a snob. After successfully finding a husband for her governess, she believes herself to be an excellent matchmaker and is soon bringing her powers to bear on the local community, attempting to arrange more couplings. She makes a particular friend of Harriet Smith whom she believes to be of high birth. She determinesplay out through social minutiae as Emma is forced to learn a good deal about herself and her own heart while attempting to direct the hearts of others.

Emma provides a vivid picture of rural and village life in the early nineteenth century and the significant issues of growing up and picking a mate. As Emma manoeuvres men and women in her attempts to make good matches, the importance of status becomes clear. For Emma’s family is of very good standing in her community and she is acutely aware of where others sit in the grand scheme of things. Emma might see innate qualities in Harriet which suggest high-birth, but in a society so tightly structured around status, attempting to break from one class to another can be a


herself and less of others. Like Darcy, she is forced to undergo an educative process that allows her to find eventual happiness, and throughout the text there are various examples of her assuming the traditionally male role. This offers an opportunity to test readers’ reaction to similar behaviours when they are assumed by a male character or a female. Clearly, Emma is far more than a parody of Darcy, but it is an interesting side note to her character.

Published in 1815, Emma was written predominantly in the previous year (but finished as late as March 1815) in a period after Austen had seen success and while she was at the peak of her powers. A more mature novelist, Austen married the expectations of her growing readership (the bookwoman was cursed by a village medicine man and she took on the form of a half-woman, half-cougar beast. In another version, a woman put on a wampus mask to defeat the evil Ew’ah spirit and then continued to walk the woods as a half-cat creature to defend people from other evil spirits. When the Cherokee were forced to move to East Texas by settlers, they may have brought the legend of the Wampus Cat along with them.

In East Texas, the Wampus Cat legend may have morphed into the local legend of the East Texas Black Panthers. Though some mountain lions are found in this area, there are no such things as black panthers in this region. However, some wildcats with a rare genetic disorder may be responsible


Marcia Ferracci, a female child under the age of seventeen.
To this second bill of information, the defendant entered a plea of double jeopardy, which was sustained by the trial court. From that judgment, the State has appealed.
In order to understand the basis for the plea of double jeopardy, an understanding of the facts is necessary. The facts related are given as they appear in the testimony of the prosecuting witness, Miss Ferracci. Her testimony is as follows:
"I was coming back from a football game, and I picked up the baby-sitters to bring them on home, and I brought them home and I dropped them off and on the way back I noticed somebody was following me, and I thought it was someone I knew. So, when I washe grabbed you

Onya Costa/The Last Roman.

Thinking of how Costa, in a sea of primitive familism, is about the only fellow we can trust to not act in a blatantly tribal fashion, reminds me of this story I heard about a missionary who was taken hostage. At the time of first hearing that story I had no understanding of where the satelite technology was at. But it transpired that, at that time, each pixel was only 7 inches across. I think its quite a lot better now.

Anyway here was this civilized man held prisoner amongst a bunch of high-tech savages. Tribal animals and goons with guns. He was on his own. In the sense of being a civilized man he was all alone. The last civilized man thrust back in timeit, but it sells. It makes sense to a lot of voters.”

Erdogan’s fortunes as presidential candidate may also be boosted by a successfully negotiated hostage release. And there’s even a chance that Turkey could play some part in stabilizing northern Iraq. Turkey does a lot of business in the region.

But Erdogan's politics remain confusing for some. A trial is ongoing for 26 Gezi Park demonstrators. Five of them are accused of "founding a criminal organization," a law usually used to fight organized crime or terrorism, not peaceful protest movements.

As for CNN’s Ivan Watson, he's doing fine and moving on to his new gig in Hong Kong, a plan in the works well before Erdogan accused him of being a spy.

He works as a therapist and has spent his career in the so-called “helping profession.” He has worked for drug-treatment centers, community mental health centers, half-way houses and all the rest. He even earned his masters at an HBC (Historically Black College). His father and mother were born in near poverty and inherited nothing. He will inherit only a small, three bedroom tract house, maybe 1700 sq ft.

Man #1 lives with his girlfriend in an all-white suburb. He pays no rent and is


happy to leave the depressed part of town where his (dad’s) rental housing is located and where his folks still live. He worries about them because across the street a bunch of shiftless slackers drink, use drugs and commit crime. He is actively seeking to evict them as well and purchase the property – no doubt to turn it into another profit machine for him and his family. He himself has never lived anywhere except under his own, his father’s or his girlfriend’s roof. In the suburb, his white neighbor’s abhor a new plan by the local housing authority to buy up private property and move in former residents of housing projects. Subsequently, it is believed, surrounding property values will be decimated, people who can will leave, thetax base will disappear and their once beautiful city will become just another burnt-out urban shell.

Man # 2 lives in a mixed neighborhood, with open homosexuals across the street, down the street and next door. He is perfectly happy where he lives and likes most of his neighbors. There is some crime in the area, but he trusts his neighbors and believes they will watch out for him. He was startled to learn that some local black folks are opposed to the housing authority’s plan as well and for the same reasons – they have hard-earned equity, too. As a result, what man #2 has heard about opponents to the plan being racists is now shaken .

It was discussed as a possibility during the offseason, and now it's a reality: ESPN's College GameDay pre-game show will be airing live from Ames, IA next Saturday morning, ahead of the 3 PM CT Cy-Hawk clash between Iowa and Iowa State. The Des Moines Register's Randy Peterson reported it earlier Saturday night, and ESPN (and ISU football) made it official a few hours later:

Before the year began, Iowa-Iowa State was earmarked as a possible GameDay destination for a few reasons. One, GameDay had never been there before and the novelty of going somewhere new -- and doing their thing in front of a crowd that isn't jaded by annual visits from the ESPN crew -- is appealing. Two, Iowa State has been a program on the upfor the last few years, with Matt Campbell guiding them to back-to-back 8-win seasons. That earned them buzz as a dark horse Big 12 contender this year. For our part, Iowa also entered the year with buzz as a possible Big Ten Championship Game participant, thanks to the presence of returning talent like A.J. Epenesa, Tristan Wirfs, and NAte Stanley. Three, it's a rivalry game, which always adds some extra juice to the proceedings.

The final reason behind GameDay's decision to head to Ames? Next week is a pretty fallow week on the college football schedule. There isn't a single game next between two ranked teams. That wasn't the case as of a few weeks ago, when it looked like there would be a couple ranked vs ranked match-ups


The new super agency created by home affairs minister Peter Dutton is facing unprecedented government scrutiny, amid a series of audits and reviews into visa arrangements and anti-corruption measures.

The federal government merged a large number of Australian government agencies into one super agency headed by Dutton earlier this year.

In an unprecedented government initiative, Dutton is overseeing more than 13,000 staff across the immigration department, Australian Border Force (ABF), Australian Federal Police, Australian Crime and Intelligence Commission, Austrac and the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation.

The agency is absorbing a range of functions from the attorney-general's department, the department of infrastructure and the prime minister's department, and will have a total budget of more than $2 billion.

The arrangement was particularly controversial because there was no recommendation to actually create the agency;Rockets, Timberwolves, 76ers complete Corey Brewer trade

The Rockets received forward Corey Brewer from the Timberwolves and guard Alexey Shved from the 76ers. The Timberwolves picked up guard Troy Daniels, Sacramento's 2015 second-round pick, Houston's 2016 second-round pick and cash considerations from the Rockets.

Brewer is the prize of the deal, having averaged 10.5 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 2.2 steals in 24 games. Shved has averaged 9.9 points and 2.7 assists in 17 games with the 76ers. Daniels has averaged 2.7 points while shooting 31.9 percent from the field in 17 games.

The 76ers received center Ronny Turiaf from Timberwolves as well as Houston's 2015 second-round pick and the rights to Serhiy Lischuk from the Rockets. The team is set to waive Turiaf, who is out for the season


after undergoing hip surgery earlier in the week.

Report: 76ers to waive Ronny Turiaf

by R.J. White | CBSSports.com

(12/19/14) The 76ers will waive center Ronny Turiaf after acquiring him in a three-team trade Friday, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Turiaf is out for the season after undergoing hip surgery earlier this week, and the Timberwolves unloaded his contract in the deal that sent Corey Brewer to the Rockets. The 76ers received a second-round pick along with Turiaf in exchange or Alexey Shved, who was sent to the Rockets in the deal.

The Rockets are primed to pick up Brewer and Shved, with Rockets shooting guard Troy Daniels heading to Minnesota and Turiaf moving to the 76ers. The Rockets had agreed to send two second-round picks to the Timberwolves as well, but one ofDaily Archives: October 27, 2018

By the time Pat Martino underwent surgery after suffering a nearly fatal brain aneurysm in 1980, the jazz guitarist already had more than a dozen albums under his own name and two decades of playing professionally, having started his career in his mid-teens. Yet following the operation, he hardly remembered anything or even recognized his own parents. In a devastating turn, he had no memory of playing guitar or of his career.

But over the next seven years, Martino learned how to play guitar again, partly with the help of his old recordings that his father would play during Pat's recovery at his parents’ home in Philadelphia.

“I listened to the recordings through the floor,” Martino says. “My father used to play them. I finished my operation in 1980, andSmith, who lived in Colorado Springs for many years until passing away at the age of ninety in 2013.

Martino says he started listening to Smith in his early teens. “I just loved his precision,” Martino says. “He was just so beautiful as a player. He was such a romantic player as well. So I grew up with an interest in Johnny. And before I moved on to other players, like horn players, he was one of the first guitar players that I really enjoyed.”

was made about his exploits, and he wrote a novel based on them.

Glass obtained a law degree from Georgetown Law School and passed the bar examinations in New York and California, but questions about his moral character have prevented him from being licensed.

The California bar found him morally unfit in 2009, but he won an appeal after a confidential, 10-day trial in which colleagues, friends, employers and his psychiatrists testified. Bar examiners then asked the California Supreme Court to deny him a license.

“Our review of the record indicates hypocrisy and evasiveness in Glass’ testimony at the California State Bar hearing...,” the court said. " We find it particularly disturbing that at the hearing, Glass persisted in claiming that he had made a good-faith effort to work with themagazines that published his works.

“He went through many verbal twists and turns at the hearing to avoid acknowledging the obvious fact that in his New York bar application he exaggerated his level of assistance to the magazines that had published his fabrications, and that he omitted from his New York bar list of fabrications some that actually could have injured real persons.”

The court said the greater the misconduct in the past, the more the lawyer applicant must demonstrate rehabilitation.

“Instead of directing his efforts at serving others in the community, much of Glass’ energy since the end of his journalistic career seems to have been directed at advancing his own career and financial and emotional well-being,” the court said.

The bar had called Glass “a pervasive and documented liar” who


tainted journalism and waited years to make a full disclosure of all the articles he concocted. His published stories often disparaged his subjects. and he invented phony notes, business cards, a website and voice mails to cover his tracks.

After the New Republic fired him, Glass moved for a while to his parents’ home and struggled with suicidal impulses. He hired a lawyer to deal with the magazines that had published his fraudulent stories and eventually wrote apologies to his former editors and the people and companies his articles disparaged.

Glass insisted to the bar he was no longer the young man who deceived his editors and fact-checkers. He said he had spent years in therapy examining his previous misconduct and learning how to ensure it never happens again.

One ofhis psychiatrists likened his fabrications to compulsive gambling. Glass said he made up story subjects, quotations and anecdotes to produce compelling articles his editors would praise. He told the California bar he wanted his editor “to love me, like I wanted my father to love me.”

He described growing up with parents who pushed him relentlessly to succeed and insisted he go to medical school even though he was not cut out to be a doctor.

Glass has worked as a paralegal for a Los Angeles personal injury firm since 2004 and has been in a long-term relationship with a woman who is a writer and attorney.

He drafts complex legal motions, advises on strategy and meets with clients, but his inability to get a law license requires that all his


November 1, 1981, was employed by the District to work as a janitor at Memorial School. Hal Schultz ("Schultz") was the District's Maintenance Supervisor and Moore's direct supervisor.
From 1983 through 1988, Amanda Barton-Plumeau ("Amanda") was enrolled as a student and attended kindergarten through fourth grade (ages 6-9) at Memorial School. Valva D. Just ("Just") was the principal at *1430 Memorial School from July 1, 1984 to June 30, 1988.
As early as January 1986, Memorial School employees began reporting to Just that they had observed Moore watching or interacting with schoolchildren at various times. Jean Bresee, who had been an instructional technician at Memorial School since 1980, reported that she saw Moore "on the playground watching children on many different occasions" and that she "observed him watching children fromto report to her if they saw Moore on the playground. Meicho Depo, pp. 28-29.
After the September 8 and 9, 1986 incidents, unnamed teacher's aids reported to Just that Moore came out on the playground on September 10 and 12, 1986. In addition, Bresee reported that on September 12, 1986, she observed Moore standing in the "Pod" area watching children on the playground.
On two separate occasions during the fall of 1986, Mrs. Williams, a teacher, saw Moore pick up children while on the playground. Mrs. Williams testified that she reported these observations to Just, who responded that she "had other reports" and "would take *1431 care of it." Deposition of Sally Williams, pp. 5-15, attached as Exhibit 5 to Plaintiffs' Amended Statement. However, Just's notes do not reflect


was concerned about the job performance of the head custodian, Leonard Cushman ("Cushman"). Adams School is a two-story building and Memorial School is only a one-story building. Cushman apparently had knee problems which made it difficult to negotiate the stairs at Adams School. Mr. Williams discussed these concerns with Schultz and discussed with Just the possibility of a job-switch between Moore and Cushman.
Mrs. Williams and/or Just told Mr. Williams that Moore had been observed looking out the window watching children on the playground. In addition, Mr. Williams knew that one of the concerns about Moore's job performance at Memorial School was that Moore was on the playground watching children when he should have been working. However, Mr. Williams denies knowing that anyone had specific concerns about whether Moore'sinteractions with children were "inappropriate." Affidavit of Gary Keith Williams, ¶ 21.
In November or December 1986, Cushman and Moore were placed on "Plans of Assistance" by District supervisors. Exhibits 16-18. Moore's Plan of Assistance included weekly inspections of his work by Schultz and a request by teachers to evaluate the custodial work done in their classrooms. Exhibit 19.
After November 10, 1986, Just's notes do not contain any further references to Moore watching or interacting with children on the playground or watching children from the school windows. However, Just made notes on January 16 and 21, 1987 that various groups had complained about the cleanliness of the bathrooms and floor of Memorial School's gymnasium. Exhibit 15, pp. 5-6.
On February 2, 1987, Moore was transferred to Adams School and Cushman


was transferred to Memorial School. This exchange was purportedly designed to "encourage continued improvement in performance" by Moore and Cushman. Exhibit 19, p. 6.
Upon his transfer, Moore became responsible for Adams School's recycling program. Teachers occasionally sent children to Moore's work area in the boiler room to assist Moore with various tasks such as separating out the recyclables and cleaning erasers.
On the evening of April 13, 1987, the father of an Adams School student called Mr. Williams and complained that Moore had inappropriately touched his daughter. The allegations were immediately reported to Interim Superintendent Murl W. Anderson. *1432 On April 14, 1987, Mr. Williams and the District's Child Development Specialist, Vern Fiske, interviewed the child and several others reportedly inappropriately touched by Moore.
The Children's Services Division ("CSD") andthe McMinnville Police Department ("MPD") were informed of the allegations of inappropriate touching. Ms. Erma Vasquez of CSD and Detective Hub Day ("Day") of MPD conducted an investigation of the allegations.
CSD and MPD interviewed possible victims of sexual abuse, as well as Memorial School personnel. Day's report indicates that Just told him that Moore had been cautioned about picking up children in June and September 1986. Exhibit 2, p. 8.
Moore was terminated by the District for gross misconduct on April 14, 1987. Moore was arrested on charges of sexual abuse on April 15, 1987, less than 48 hours after Mr. Williams received the telephone complaint.
Moore was convicted of Sexual Abuse in the First Degree, and Judgment was entered against him in Yamhill County Circuit Court on September 30,


1987. Moore's conviction was published in a newspaper of general circulation in McMinnville, Oregon on September 16, 1987.
In 1987, the District had no specific policy concerning child abuse reporting. However, there was a policy on lodging complaints about school personnel. A child abuse reporting policy was adopted on February 8, 1988. All District personnel were trained to report any allegations or suspicions of child abuse.
Five years later, in May 1992, Amanda was hospitalized after attempting suicide. Shortly after being admitted, Amanda disclosed that she had been sexually abused by Moore between 1984 and 1987.
A criminal investigation of Amanda's claims of sexual abuse ensued. Exhibits 7-9. By the end of July 1992, Barbara Plumeau provided information regarding the alleged sexual abuse of her daughter to CSD, MPD, the YamhillAmanda indicating that, prior to the time she completed first grade, Moore had picked her up, hugged her, and otherwise touched her on numerous occasions. Some time during the 1984-85 school year, she was standing in the lunch line when Moore came into the cafeteria. She ran out of the line to greet him and he picked her up and hugged her. Upon seeing this, her first grade teacher yelled at her to get back into the line. Later that day, Amanda was escorted to Just's office where Just told her that it was inappropriate for Moore to pick her up and that Amanda should not let him do so. Because Just did not ask about it, Amanda did not tell Just about the previous times she had


they discovered their injuries on one of two alternative dates and gave sufficient "formal" or "actual" notice of their claims within 270 days after those dates.
It is undisputed that the only "formal notice" provided to the District under ORS 30.275(5)(b) was by letter dated May 11, 1994 from plaintiffs' attorney to the District's attorney. Exhibit 1. Plaintiffs assert that they first discovered the potential liability of the District on the date of Moore's sentencing, September 9, 1993, when an employee of the District Attorney's office advised Barbara Plumeau that she believed Just was responsible for the sexual abuse Moore perpetrated at Memorial School. Thus, plaintiffs argue that the May 11, 1994 notice of their claims (244 days after September 9, 1993) was sufficient. This argument rests on thepremise that even though plaintiffs knew that Moore perpetrated the sexual abuse of Amanda while he was employed by the District as a janitor at Memorial, they did not "discover" their claims against the District until an employee of the District Attorney's office told them whom she blamed. This premise is flawed.
Plaintiffs admit that they "discovered Moore's role" on May 29, 1992, when Amanda first revealed that she had been sexually abused by Moore at Memorial School. Plaintiffs' Amended Response, p. 16. Plaintiffs knew Moore was a janitor at Memorial School when he allegedly perpetrated the *1434 abuse. They knew the alleged abuse took place during school hours and on school property. These facts alone were sufficient to apprise plaintiffs of their potential claims against the District for


may be held vicariously liable for Moore's intentional torts.

II. § 1983 Claim

Next, the District contends that it is entitled to summary judgment against the Third Alternative Cause of Action which alleges a claim under 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
42 U.S.C. § 1983, in part, provides:
Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State ... subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States ... to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress.
Thus, to establish a claim under § 1983, a plaintiff must prove both that she was deprived of an existingAs discussed above, suffering sexual abuse in a public school may provide the basis for a constitutional claim for deprivation of a liberty interest. Amanda's second theory of recovery rests on Just's conduct following Moore's transfer to Adams School on February 2, 1987. By that time, Moore's sexual abuse of Amanda had ended and she no longer suffered any constitutional injury.
Nevertheless, Amanda argues that she suffered more serious psychological trauma than she otherwise would have suffered because the District failed in 1987 to discover that she had been one of Moore's victims at Memorial School. This type of argument clearly addresses the extent of Amanda's damages from the underlying constitutional injury, not the existence of an independent injury. Between Moore's transfer to Adams School and Amanda's suicide attempt


on the playground; (2) on several occasions held the hands of Memorial School students; (3) twice picked up Memorial School students; and (4) hugged students on approximately five occasions.
However, the undisputed evidence also indicates that no District official received a report that Moore had "inappropriately" touched a student until the April 1987 report to Mr. Williams. Nor did any of the Memorial School employees who observed Moore's various interactions with students consider the observations they made "unusual" or "inappropriate."
This court is unwilling to conclude that Moore's watching, holding hands with, picking up, or hugging a student points "plainly toward the conclusion" that he was sexually abusing Amanda or any other student. In hindsight, Moore's actions undoubtedly provide clues as to which students he might have abused at Memorialhad received complaints from parents, as well as from a teacher, who reported witnessing "child molestation." Stoneking II, 882 F.2d at 727-31, involved evidence indicating that the principal and assistant principal had received five complaints of sexual assaults of female students by teachers and staff members over four year period. The school district superintendent was told of some of these complaints; the principal kept records of these complaints in secret file at home rather than in the teachers' personnel files; the teachers continued to receive excellent performance evaluations; and the principal and assistant principal intimidated the student from pursuing a complaint by forcing her to publicly recant her allegation. These facts were held sufficient to survive motion for summary judgment, but are lacking in this case.
In addition, several


of harm to Memorial School students, much less to a particular child such as Amanda. Nor is there any evidence that the District took any affirmative action that created the danger which caused the specific harm suffered *1444 by Amanda. The District did hire and retain Moore. However, the mere fact that the District employed Moore to perform normal and customary janitorial duties which incidentally gave him access to the entire school building is insufficient to show that the District took affirmative action creating a specific danger to a specific individual. Absent some notice to the District of Moore's propensity to sexually abuse children, Amanda may not rely on this theory.
In other words, the District's innocuous act of hiring and retaining Moore may not form the sole basisobligations by sending a child to public school. The parent and the child continue to have a wide range of options and the child is not effectively stripped of the ability to care for himself or herself by seeking outside help should a particular condition or event at the school so require. Simply put, the state does not, by making a public school system available to children as one means for a child to attend school or otherwise meet minimal educational requirements, impose a meaningful restraint on the student's liberty. Thus, this court concludes that there is no "special relationship" between a school district and a public school student which gives rise to an affirmative duty on the part of the school district to protect the student from


NASA's new "chemical laptop" perches on a test rover at the Jet Propulsion Lab's Mars Yard next to an ordinary laptop. Such a laptop could detect signs of life on other worlds.

New NASA technology straight out of "Star Trek" could help scientists detect life on other worlds.

The device, dubbed the "chemical laptop," is a miniature, portable laboratory that resembles the TV show's famous tricorder scanning device, and is designed to make data collection easier and faster than ever before.

The laptop, currently in development at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, California, is a chemical analyzer made to detect both amino acids and fatty acids, often called "the building blocks of life," in samples from extraterrestrial terrain. Amino acids bind together to create proteins, which are vital toas clearly stated by the All Ceylon Hindu Congress. Similarly, the majority of other faiths in the country do not accept animal sacrifice in their worship and rituals, and importantly, all faiths in our country are against cruelty to animals.”

Here is the text of the statement by the Secretary to the President, Mr. Lalith Weeratunga, issued to the media today (Sept 13, 12)

Cruelty to animals and ritual sacrifice

“Contrary to certain media reports, there is no agreement by the Government to allow animal sacrifices to be performed at the Sri Bhadrakali Amman Kovil, Munneswaram, in Chilaw.

In my office as the Secretary to the President, I did convey the Government’s appreciation of the Kovil authorities acceding to the request of HE the President to stop animal slaughter at this Kovil,


during the period of the exposition and veneration of the Sacred Kapilavastu relics of the Buddha, which ended yesterday. This is in no way an agreement for the ritual slaughter of animals to be carried out.

The media is entirely wrong in stating that I had visited these sacrifices several times. This is furthest from the truth. I have never visited such events at this or any other place.

Similarly, the statements that certain other high ranking personalities, close to HE the President, in family and office, had participated in these rituals are also completely wrong and without any foundation in truth. These statements allegedly made by Kali Mutta Shivapada Sunderam, the Chief Priest of the Munneswaram Kovil, appear to be tendentious and made for the purpose of clearing theway for these ritual sacrifices of animals to be continued.

Both in principle and policy the Government is against cruelty to animals that takes place in these ritual sacrifices. The Mahinda Chinthana has clearly stated opposition to all forms of cruelty to animals.

The Government is aware that the matter of Cruelty to Animals is at present before the judiciary. As such it would respectfully await the conclusion of these proceedings until further action is taken on this matter.

The Government is also aware that the ritual sacrifice of animals is not acceptable to the Hindu Community, which considers it a sinful act, as clearly stated by the All Ceylon Hindu Congress. Similarly, the majority of other faiths in the country do not accept animal sacrifice in their worship and rituals,

The lawsuit alleges that the patrol car was moving when Samayoa fired, a violation of SFPD policy.

The complaint, too, points out that Samayoa and the training officer did not activate their body cameras before the incident, also a violation of SFPD policy.

The video was captured only because the cameras are programmed to capture 30 seconds of video preceding activation, and Samayoa turned it on immediately after the shooting.

Tamil Wedding Thaalee Kodi

Tamil language speaking people are still following many ancient traditions during their matrimonial ceremonies that are followed by bride and the groom as was done thousands of years back by their ancestors.

In the ancient time as per Tamil tradition, Tamil men used to tie saffron piece or palymarah leaf piece around the neck of the bride at the wedding ceremony for to make her as his wife. Then it changed to putting three knots with the yellow twine with thalee or turmeric piece (Twin was made in to yellow color with the turmeric paste) around the neck of the bride. The woman wore it till their husband was alive. Those women who had lost their husband don't take part in public functions. Even some widowsor even higher in odd number. Sovereigns are calculated in total with "thalee" and the gold coins. Now there are plenty jewel shops offer tailor made sets.

According to Tamil tadition thaalee must be crafted by a gold smith whom should be a happily married person living along with his wife and children.

Also there are other things worn by the married women on wedding day are "metti" on the finger of the leg and "kumkum" (Kumkumam) on the forehead.

coronavirus isolated from a patient in Saudi Arabia is posing questions on IP ownership.BSIP SA / Alamy

Back in June 2012, Zaki sent samples from a patient with a severe respiratory infection to both the Saudi Ministry of Health and the laboratory of Ron Fouchier of Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, for routine help diagnosing the isolates. The Saudi Ministry of Health told Zaki that the virus did not match any pathogens in their screen. In early September, Fouchier\'s lab told Zaki that the sample was a new kind of coronavirus, similar to the severe acute respiratory disease (SARS) that killed at least 774 people in 2003 and infected over 8,000. On September 15 Zaki posted the news to ProMED, an email listserv hosted by the Internationalcould be "partially dependent on our patents," Fouchier says, but "the IP we filed at no point in time has stood in the way of test development." By May 2013 at least 20 people had died of the virus. At the World Health Assembly held in Geneva that month, Memish said that "patenting of the virus" was causing diagnostics delays, even though patent applications are unenforceable while pending. And as the application listed investigators from both Erasmus Medical Center and Soliman Fakeeh Hospital as inventors, it would normally be managed by their host institutions, Fouchier says, meaning the Saudis would have had a hand in controlling the IP until Zaki left.

Alan Rickman, a British actor who famously played the role of Professor Snape in the Harry Potter films and staged a play based on the life of slain pro-Palestinian activist Rachel Corrie, has died aged 69, his agent said on Thursday.

With his aquiline features and cultured - if often menacing - English accent, he became one of Britain’s best-known actors of stage and screen over the last 30 years with a career stretching from the Royal Shakespeare Company to sci-fi spoof “Galaxy Quest.”

His family said he had died surrounded by family and friends.

“Alan was my friend and so this is hard to write because I have just kissed him goodbye,” said British actress Emma Thompson who appeared with Rickman in a number of films including “Love Actually.”

“He wasthe finest of actors and directors. I couldn’t wait to see what he was going to do with his face next,” she said in a statement. “He was above all things a rare and unique human being and we shall not see his like again.”

A graduate of London’s Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, Rickman got his big break appearing the Broadway version of “Les Liaisons Dangereuses” in the mid-1980s before making his first major film appearance as Hans Gruber in “Die Hard” soon afterwards.

That was to be the first of many performances as a villain, including “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street” and as the Sheriff of Nottingham in “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves,” for which he won a Bafta, the British equivalent of an Oscar.

Alan Rickman’s death. He was a magnificent actor and a wonderful man,”

The Guardian newspaper said Rickman was always politically active with the left-wing Labour Party and his wife, Rima Horton, his partner of more than 50 years whom he married in secret last year, had been a Labour councilor in London.

“Brilliant actor, deeply principled man. My heart goes out to Rima and his family,” Ed Miliband, Labour’s former leader said on Twitter.

Rickman directed and helped edit My Name Is Rachel Corrie, a drama based on the life of the American activist who was killed by Israeli bulldozers in Gaza in 2003 during the second Palestinian intifada. The play opened in London in 2005 to critical acclaim but a planned appearance in New York was scrapped.a fuller explanation of his advocacy for Melgen.

In July, as a Foreign Relations subcommittee chairman, Menendez convened a hearing on “doing business in Latin America.” A transcript shows that, at the hearing, he questioned a State Department official about what the administration was doing to help a company in the Dominican Republic “that has American investors.” The New York Times and The Miami Herald first reported on the hearing on Friday.

Menendez said the company, which he did not name, was being blocked by the Dominican government from carrying out a contract it had been awarded to X-ray outbound security containers at ports, according to the transcript.

Citing that contract and other business complaints with other countries, Menendez asked Matthew Rooney, a deputy assistant secretary of state, whether the United

The NIOSH Construction Program: research to practice, impact, and developing a National Construction Agenda.
The U.S. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) conducts research to improve and protect the health and safety of workers. This paper describes the experience of the NIOSH Construction Program with two recent program planning initiatives intended to improve the program: (a) an independent external review of work over the past decade and (b) the development of strategic goals organized into a "National Construction Agenda" to guide a decade of future work. These goals, developed with input from construction industry stakeholders and researchers, are a part of the NIOSH National Occupational Research Agenda (NORA) initiative. The NORA goals are intended to provide an ambitious set of goals for all construction stakeholders to workAlex Gordon's Brother Playing Minor League Baseball

By 10/11 Sports&nbsp|&nbsp

Posted: Fri 11:00 PM, Jul 25, 2014

Fans at Haymarket Park might have flashbacks this weekend when they see a guy with the last name Gordon take the field. Although he looks like former Husker great Alex, it's actually his younger brother, Derek, who's a relief pitcher for the Kansas City T-Bones.

"The guy has worked so hard even through the adversity when he was at third base earlier in his career," said Derek. "Going through as much stuff as he's gone through is something to be proud of."

Like his older brother, Derek played at Lincoln Southeast. While he could've walked on at Nebraska, Derek instead pitched at Park University just outside of Kansas City. The 6'6" right hander set school records


for the career wins and strikeouts.

"The biggest thing is that they expect you to be as hard of a worker as he is," said Derek. "And, honestly, that's impossible. He works so hard and it's unmatchable."

Derek threw to Alex for the first time last offseason when the two trained at the NU hitting facility named after the Royals left fielder.

"I did try to throw a few in there but he's a really good hitter," Derek said. "It's hard to put anything past him."

While both Gordons play in the Kansas City area, they rarely get the opportunity to spend time together during the season. Derek goes to Royals games when he is able to. Back in Lincoln, Friday marked the first time Derek has played an official game inTortora of Diamondback and Fayad Abassi of Neuberger Berman — had an inside contact at the computer maker.

Goyal, who has pleaded guilty, testified Monday that he received the information from Dell employee Rob Ray.

The world saw one of the most cataclysmic political events in decades on Thursday, June 23, 2016, with a majority of British voters choosing to leave the European Union (EU). The decision was a huge surprise, with oddsmakers and financial market traders expecting the opposite. Betting markets gave 'Remain' an 88 percent chance to win. Instead, 'Leave' won 52 percent to 48 percent.

Final polling leading up to the referendum showed 'Remain' with a slight edge, but there was always the possibility of 'Leave' pulling out ahead given the margin of error - 17 of 35 surveys in June showed 'Leave' ahead, while only 15 had 'Remain' in the Lead. Of course, most forecasters expected undecided voters to break heavilytoward the 'Remain' camp but this was always conjecture.

Immediate Repercussions

Financial markets started falling sharply as referendum results started trickling in and the odds of Britain leaving the EU rose. They continued to fall after official results were announced. The British pound really took it on the chin, falling more than 8% on Friday to its lowest level since 1985, and resumed its slide on Monday. Equity markets across the globe are hardly faring much better, with financials taking the biggest hit.

The uncertainty over Brexit is especially hurting European banks, just as they were beginning to recover from the 2008 financial crisis and subsequent Eurozone related emergencies. Banks have to decide whether to remain in Britain or shift operations to continental Europe. Up until this point, most global banks


have set up shop in the UK and done business in the EU by "passporting" into the rest of the 28-member bloc. London is also a major center for clearing and settling trades for EU securities. On Saturday, France's central bank governor, Francois Villeroy De Galhau, was clear that London will lose its prized stature, saying: "If tomorrow Britain is not part of the single market, the City cannot keep this European passport, and clearing houses cannot be located in London either."

London has been a global financial center for more than a hundred years, but even more so over the last few decades with deregulation and globalization. That status is now under question.

The Supreme Court recognized the common law principle regarding lien priority that "first in time is the first in right." McDermott, 507

Y. Soc. What is it?

Str. The life of all animals first came to a standstill, and the mortal nature ceased to be or look older, and was then reversed and grew young and delicate; the white locks of the aged darkened again, and the cheeks the bearded man became smooth, and recovered their former bloom; the bodies of youths in their prime grew softer and smaller, continually by day and night returning and becoming assimilated to the nature of a newly-born child in mind as well as body; in the succeeding stagethe matter drop, and give the reason why we have unearthed this tale, and then we shall be able to get on.

In the fulness of time, when the change was to take place, and the earth-born race had all perished, and every soul had completed its proper cycle of births and been sown in the earth her appointed number of times, the pilot of the universe let the helm go, and retired to his place of view; and then Fate and innate desire reversed the motion of the world. Then also all the inferior deities who share the rule of the supreme power, being informed of what was happening, let go the parts of the world which were under their control. And the world turning round with a


sudden shock, being impelled in an opposite direction from beginning to end, was shaken by a mighty earthquake, which wrought a new destruction of all manner of animals. Afterwards, when sufficient time had elapsed, the tumult and confusion and earthquake ceased, and the universal creature, once more at peace attained to a calm, and settle down into his own orderly and accustomed course, having the charge and rule of himself and of all the creatures which are contained in him, and executing, as far as he remembered them, the instructions of his Father and Creator, more precisely at first, but afterwords with less exactness. The reason of the falling off was the admixture of matter in him; this was inherent in the primal nature, which was full ofdisorder, until attaining to the present order. From God, the constructor; the world received all that is good in him, but from a previous state came elements of evil and unrighteousness, which, thence derived, first of all passed into the world, and were then transmitted to the animals. While the world was aided by the pilot in nurturing the animals, the evil was small, and great the good which he produced, but after the separation, when the world was let go, at first all proceeded well enough; but, as time went there was more and more forgetting, and the old discord again held sway and burst forth in full glory; and at last small was the good, and great was the admixture of evil, and there was a


danger of universal ruin to the world, and the things contained in him. Wherefore God, the orderer of all, in his tender care, seeing that the world was in great straits, and fearing that all might be dissolved in the storm and disappear in infinite chaos, again seated himself at the helm; and bringing back the elements which had fallen into dissolution and disorder to the motion which had prevailed under his dispensation, he set them in order and restored them, and made the world imperishable and immortal.

And this is the whole tale, of which the first part will suffice to illustrate the nature of the king. For when the world turned towards the present cycle of generation, the age of man again stood still, and a changeopposite to the previous one was the result. The small creatures which had almost disappeared grew in and stature, and the newly-born children of the earth became grey and died and sank into the earth again. All things changed, imitating and following the condition of the universe, and of necessity agreeing with that in their mode of conception and generation and nurture; for no animal; was any longer allowed to come into being in the earth through the agency of other creative beings, but as the world was ordained to be the lord of his own progress, in like manner the parts were ordained to grow and generate and give nourishment, as far as they could, of themselves, impelled by a similar movement. And so we have arrived
