his consent to the search. By his initials on the consent form, appellant acknowledged that he knew

that he was not required to consent and that he would not be penalized if he did refuse.

children had been “rounded up” by the police, and that he was “surrounded” by at least eight officers

The Lameta Formation is a sedimentary rock formation found in Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, and Maharashtra, India. It is of Maastrichtian age (Upper Cretaceous), and is notable for its dinosaur fossils.  Many dubious names have been created for isolated bones, but several genera of dinosaurs from these rocks are well-supported, including the titanosaur sauropod Isisaurus, the abelisaurs Indosaurus, Indosuchus, Laevisuchus, and Rajasaurus and possible stegosaurs.

Nepal | Disoriented pilot, bad runway approach cited in crash

Nepalese rescuers stand near a passenger plane from Bangladesh that crashed at the airport in Kathmandu on March 12

A Bangladeshi airliner was misaligned with the runway and its pilot was disoriented and tried to land in “sheer desperation” when the plane crashed last year in Nepal, an investigation report said.

US-Bangla Airlines Flight BS211 from Dhaka crashed on its second landing attempt at Kathmandu’s Tribhuvan International Airport on March 12, 2018. The 51 people killed were 28 Bangladeshi, 22 Nepalese and one Chinese national, and 20 others were injured. The pilot and co-pilot were among the dead.

The investigation report compiled by Nepalese officials and made available yesterday said the probable cause of the crash was the pilot’s disorientation and lossof situation awareness.

“Contributing to this, the aircraft was offset to the proper approach path that led to maneuvers in a very dangerous and unsafe altitude to alight with the runway. Landing was completed in a sheer desperation after sighting the runway, at very close proximity and very low altitude,” it said.

The report also said the pilot had been released from the Bangladesh Air Force in 1993 due to depression and was only allowed to fly civilian planes from 2002 after a detailed medical evaluation.

Also, the pilot was under stress and emotionally disturbed and had lack of sleep in the preceding night.

The report also cited a lack of assertiveness from controllers at Kathmandu airport in monitoring the flight path and failing to issue clear instructions to carry out a


AGs have good reason to get ready for potential court battles: In its analysis entitled "The Trump Memos," the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) found that the president-elect's propals "to deport over 11 million undocumented immigrants, to ban Muslims from entering the United States, to surveil American Muslims and their houses of worship, to torture again, and to revise libel laws" would infringe upon the First, Fourth, Fifth, and Eighth Amendments. As such, they "would blatantly violate the inalienable rights guaranteed by the Constitution."

Recognizing these threats, the ACLU said ahead of the election that it was preparing to defend against Trump's "one-man constitutional crisis." The day after his election, the organization said to Trump, "If you do not reverse course and instead endeavor to make these campaign promisesFINDSPARK COMMUNITY SUCCESS STORIES

Pleas for peace at Duggan vigil

Britain's most senior police officer believes a remembrance vigil for Mark Duggan will remain peaceful despite fury after an inquest jury found the 29-year-old was lawfully killed by a Scotland Yard marksman.

Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe met with political and community leaders from Tottenham, north London today as part of moves to rebuild the fractured relationship with the police in the wake of the shooting and its aftermath.

Mr Duggan was gunned down when the taxi in which he was travelling was stopped by armed officers in Tottenham in August 2011, and his death sparked protests that in turn led to a wave of rioting and looting across the country.

mixture gas.
The fuel spray injected by the nozzle has a large velocity and a strong penetration force in the axial direction of the nozzle hole. Therefore, while passing through the high temperature air in the cavity, the fuel spray evaporates gradually, the diameters of the fuel droplets in the spray decrease, and the flight velocity of the droplets also decreases. Accordingly, the fuel spray is caused to flow by the swirl stream formed in the cavity, thus forming mixture gas in the swirl stream near the downstream walls of the cavity.
Immediately after this conventional diesel engine is started, namely when the engine is operating at low temperature, the temperature of the walls of the cavity is also low, the air temperature is not elevated during the compression stroke,The fuel film is evaporated on the cavity wall. The vapor of the fuel thus evaporated is driven by the swirl stream inside the cavity to form a mixture gas.
Compared with the first-described diesel engine having a toroidal combustion chamber, the second-described diesel engine is advantageous in that, as only the fuel vapor which is formed by evaporation of the fuel film is mixed with air for combustion, the quantity of smoke generated is small. However, the latter diesel engine is still disadvantageous in that the combustion characteristics are strongly affected by the temperature of the wall, the engine is difficult to start at low temperatures, and a large amount of noxious emissions, particularly hydrocarbons, is exhausted immediately after starting.

The Golden Eagles will face seven teams this year that competed in the 2011 NCAA tournament.

The Golden Eagles kick off the fall slate when they host the Marquette Challenge on Aug. 24-26 at the Al McGuire Center. Marquette welcomes Bowling Green and Northwestern to Milwaukee for that first weekend of competition, and will begin the season against the Falcons at 7 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 24.

A Sunday, Aug. 26 matinee will see the Golden Eagles play a 2 p.m. contest against Northwestern, a squad they last faced in Evanston, Ill., during the 2010 season.

Marquette will make its lone trek out of Milwaukee for the non-conference schedule with a tournament hosted by Xavier University on Aug. 31 and Sept.1. The Golden Eagles will take on Mississippi and Tennessee Tech Friday before playing fellow-Jesuit university, Xavier, on Saturday.

The Ambassador Hotel Golden Eagle Classic plays host to 2011 NCAA tournament squads Michigan and Northern Iowa, as well as Eastern Michigan and Wake Forest, on Sept. 7-9 at the Al McGuire Center. Both UNI and Michigan appeared in the Gainesville Regional along with the Golden Eagles in 2011 and have both defeated Marquette during Shymansky’s tenure at MU (at Michigan (2009) at UNI (2011)).

This year’s Marquette Invitational welcomes Pacific and Iowa to the Al McGuire Center, in addition to the Milwaukee Panthers. Former MU All-American Nikki Klingsporn joined Milwaukee staff as an assistant coach in late March and will return to the Al McGuire Center for the first time

A mid-October homestand featuring reigning BIG EAST tournament-champion Cincinnati and Louisville travelling to Milwaukee highlights the conference slate for the Golden Eagles, as both squads reached the NCAA Championship in 2011. MU welcomes the Bearcats on Friday, Oct. 19 and Louisville on Sunday, Oct. 21.

The Golden Eagles will make a mid-week trip to the Klotsche Center to face Milwaukee on Tuesday, Oct. 30 in a rare break from conference play before finishing up with three of their last four league games at the Al McGuire Center.

Marquette’s final weekend of BIGEAST competition will feature a trip to Louisville on Friday, Nov. 9 before closing out regular season conference play against Notre Dame at home on Sunday, Nov. 11. Both Louisville and Notre Dame are repeat opponents as the BIG EAST elected to go with two home-and-home matchups following the departure of West Virginia.

THE STATE.

Supreme Court of Georgia.
Decided June 29, 1992.
Kirbo & McCalley, Jon V. Forehand, for appellant.
H. Lamar Cole, District Attorney, Charles M. Stines, Assistant District Attorney, Michael J. Bowers, Attorney General, C. A. Benjamin Woolf, Staff Attorney, for appellee.
SEARS-COLLINS, Justice.
The appellant, Terry Anderson, Jr., shot and killed James Young, Jr., as Young stood in the doorway of his home. Anderson was convicted of malice murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime. He was sentenced to life imprisonment on the malice murder charge and to five years consecutive imprisonment on the firearms charge.[1] He now appeals.
On October 6, 1991, Anderson, who had been drinking, stopped by the trailer where Young lived with his girl friend, Corinne Davis. The reasons thatAnderson gave for the visit were to collect a five dollar debt owed to him by one of Ms. Davis' children and to assist Ms. Davis in having one of her brothers released from jail. Anderson asked to speak privately with Ms. Davis and Young responded, "whatever you've got to say to her you can say it standing right here in front of me." An argument ensued between Anderson and Young. Young then went into a bedroom, returned with a rifle and told Anderson to leave. Several eyewitnesses testified that Young never pointed the weapon at Anderson.
Anderson left, but he remained outside by his truck, which was parked in front of Young's home. Anderson stated that he was waiting for the return of Isaac Washington, another of Corinne

As of the end of October, a total of 71 requests for natural gas service in Bullitt County have been denied — including a new school, a recovery clinic, a housing development and industrial warehouses — because of the inability to reliably supply energy to new and existing customers without additional natural gas infrastructure.

Approved by the Kentucky Public Service Commission in an open proceeding in 2017, the pipeline project was scheduled to have been completed and in operation this year. The 12-mile, 12-inch line will create another way for natural gas to reach the up to 10,000 customers served by the existing infrastructure.

The Verdict:

With there still being a week to go before the game against Leeds at Villa Park, Smith will have been pleased with the injury news which will come as a huge boost for the side.

The midfield has been severely depleted in recent weeks and the team has been able to pick from just a handful of them in their most recent game.

There is no doubt that the visit of Leeds will be tough, however, Villa will feel better about their chances if they were to have all five men available for the game.

This article revisits Doctor Manuel González Rivera's work as a promoter of hygiene education in Mexico during the 1940s. From his classroom at the School of Public Health and head of the Hygiene Education Department of the Ministry of Health and Assistance, González Rivera produced an interesting bibliography on the meaning and importance of hygiene education. Based on three of his most important books, Educación Higiénica (Hygiene Education) (1943), Doña Eugenesia y otros personajes. Materiales de educación higiénica popular (Eugenics and other characters. Popular hygiene education materials) (1943) and Enfermedades transmisibles.

through a catheter to give long-term relief—works faster. Inhaled nitrous oxide was associated with nausea, vomiting, and dizziness, and sedatives helped some with pain but not as much as opioids.

The pain relief from epidurals was effective in this huge analysis, but epidurals were associated with more instrumental births (forceps or vacuum) and with more cesarean deliveries as a result of fetal distress. In addition, epidurals were linked with maternal low blood pressure, acute walking difficulty, and inability to urinate, all of which are typically temporary. The combined spinal epidural was less associated with urinary retention than the traditional epidural but was associated with more itching, possibly because of the local anesthetic.

Getting mom, dad, grandparents, and siblings vaccinated does slightly reduce a baby's risk of contracting pertussis, but the best protection is provided from a dose of Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis vaccine for teens and adults) during pregnancy.

Q: **Can vaccines shed and make others sick?**

A: Viral shedding occurs when a person with a viral infection can "shed" the virus in bodily fluids or by touching a wound, potentially transmitting the virus to others. Some parents may have concerns that live vaccines can shed and make others around a recently vaccinated child sick. Inactivated vaccines cannot shed at all—the virus or bacterium cannot replicate or cause disease. Live vaccines have been severely weakened so that they don't cause disease, but they can replicate in the body.

When to Start the Spoon

It's the question that can start a food fight over baby's breakfast: When can your baby start solid or "complementary" (as in, complement to breast milk or formula) foods? A check of the changing guidelines over the years and across institutions and nations is sufficient to get across the take-home message that no one's quite sure. For example, the WHO guidelines in existence when Emily's oldest child was born would have suggested introducing complementary foods as early as 4 months old. The latest set of guidelines, though, shifted that recommendation to 6 months at the earliest. If he had been exclusively formula-fed, there were no guidelines that would have addressed his needs at all.

Two considerations underlie the deep interest in the question_Arthur_ , _Blue's Clues_ , _Reading Rainbow_ , and _Barney & Friends_ (though our children would have watched that purple dinosaur over our dead bodies). Disney and Nickelodeon also do a decent job with preschool programming, though the effects are more mixed once school-age hits.

However, children's brains don't appear ready to start learning from all this programming until around age 2 (for the same transfer deficit reason we discussed in the section on mobile devices, here). A study that compared how well children learned vocabulary from a person in front of them versus from a children's program found that kids under 22 months didn't learn anything from the TV program. Another similar experiment found that only kids 17 months and older learned words by watching an educational DVD


and there's almost nothing we could say is true of all those individuals.

But we do know that spanking increases the likelihood of some outcomes, depending on numerous factors: How often and how severely is a child spanked? Is spanking done in a moment of desperation or anger? Or is the parent calmly following through on an established practice the child has learned to expect in response to misbehavior? (The former may be more likely to make kids fearful or angry toward their parents.) Is spanking the only tool the parent uses, or is it combined with reasoning, time-out, removing privileges, and other discipline methods? In fact, one major shortcoming in the research is that these questions often aren't considered in studies. Even though corporal punishment could involve a"People who are in those parts of their life where they're still kinda struggling to make the right time for fitness and do fitness in the right ways — this will feel significant."

Within a couple days, Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty shot down the idea claiming there was no evidence that it would improve the state of education or learning for black students. Since then there has been some discussion on the issue.

On a regular basis, you can pass numerous people carrying guns, knives and other weapons openly.

God should be separated from the state, Palin said, our Founding Fathers, they were believers.

Governor Palin's history is rather shaky. Religious liberty—the freedom to worship as one chooses, or not to worship—is a central element of the American creed. Yes, many of the Founders were believing, observant Christians. But to think of them as apostles in knee breeches or as passionate evangelicals is a profound misreading of the past. In many ways their most wondrous legacy was creating the foundations of a culture of religious diversity in which the secular and the religious could live in harmony, giving faith a role in the life of the nation in which it could shape us without strangling us. On the day George Washington left Philadelphia to take command of theContinental Army, the Rev. William Smith preached a sermon at the city's Christ Church, saying: "Religion and liberty must flourish or fall together in America. We pray that both may be perpetual."

Arguments about the connection between religion and politics, church and state, have surely been perpetual. The civil and legal cases against religious coercion are well known: human freedom extends to one's conscience, and by abolishing religious tests for office or mandated observances, Americans have successfully created a climate—a free market, if you will—in which religion can take its stand in the culture and in the country without particular help or harm from the government.

There is a religious case against state involvement with matters of faith, too. Long before Thomas Jefferson, Roger Williams, the founder of Rhode Island,


called for a "hedge or wall of separation between the garden of the church and the wilderness of the world," believing, with the Psalmist, that human beings were not to put their trust in princes. The principalities and powers of a fallen world represented and still represent a corrupting threat to religion: too many rulers have used faith to justify and excuse all manner of evil.

The idea of separation began, in fact, with Jesus. Once, when the crowds were with him and wanted to make him a king, he withdrew and hid. Before Pilate, Jesus was explicit: "My kingdom is not of this world," he said. Later in the New Testament, Paul argues that God shows no partiality among nations or peoples, meaning nations cannot claim blessed status,by John Adams, "the government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion." Jefferson said that his statute for religious freedom in Virginia was "meant to comprehend, within the mantle of its protection, the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and the Mohammedan, the Hindoo and Infidel of every denomination." There are many precedents for the National Day of Prayer, but serious believers, given the choice between a government-sanctioned religious moment and the perpetuation of a culture in which religion can take its own stand, free from the corruptions of the world, should always choose the garden of the church over the wilderness of the world. It is, after all, what Jesus did.

the role (if any) that organized religion should play in the halls of government, etc., etc. etc.? Perhaps Gov.Mike Huckabee said it best when asked what Jesus would do as a modern politician:

And perhaps he is right. Surely Jesus would spend his time dealing with more important matters, right?

Not so fast.

While it is true that Jesus' primary goal was to bring people to him as the Savior of mankind, it would be both foolish and inaccurate to state that he cared nothing of the affairs of this world. And even though he made it clear that his "kingdom was not of this world," Jesus was, on occasion, quite vocal and passionate about the affairs this world.

Render to Caesar

During his ministry, Jesus was, from time to time, confronted bysome of the more prominent members of Jewish society in an effort to confront him or catch him in a lie of sorts, all in an effort to discredit the man whom they esteemed as an enemy to their agenda. On one occasion, two different groups (the Pharisees and Herodians) confronted Jesus in an effort to "entangle him in his talk." Both the Parisees and Herodians hated Jesus (for different reasons) and believed that entangling him in his words, especially on hot-button political matters, might discredit him in the eyes of his followers. We read of what happened in Matthew 22:

15. Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.

16. And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying,


a limited domain over earthly rule, not because He is limited, but because He has turned over part of His kingdom to humans for earthly supervision."

Jesus of Nazareth was clearly in favor of a separation between church and state not because he wanted a secular society but because he wanted a moral one, and the best way to ensure that was to take religion out of the hands of the politicians. Jesus and his apostles had seen first hand what religious politicians (Pharisees, Herodians, etc.) had done to religion and Jesus clearly wanted no part of it. Rarely if ever did Jesus "trash talk" anyone but he certainly did with these types. As he stated in Matthew 12:34:

O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak goodappointed me a judge or an arbiter between you?" (Luke 12:13–14)

"Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten. Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world. When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone." (John 6: 13-15)

But with all of his apparent disinterest (or insistence in a separation between church and state) in secular matters, Jesus was quick and fierce in his defense of religious sovereignty. In the only account of his resorting


to violence, Jesus was more than willing to "throw down" with those who made a mockery of the temple:

When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. In the temple courts he found men selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple area, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. To those who sold doves he said, "Get these out of here! How dare you turn my Father's house into a market!" (John 2:13–16)

For Jesus, the pollution of worldly distractions had defiled the Lord's temple; an offense that was far worse than the introduction of religioninto government. Simply put, the temple of the Lord was to be free of secular distractions, political rhetoric and worldly wealth. It was a house of sacrifice and prayer. Politicians and greedy capitalists be damned! =)

In light of such evidence, it is abundantly clear that a separation of church and state was, and still is, a CHRISTIAN concept. The very founder of the faith saw tremendous advantages to both church and state when both are put in check and denied the right to overpower the other. Under such a system, religion and government would mutually flourish not as opposing forces but as equal partners in creating a free and moral world. One could not exist without the other, and one could not exercise dominion over the other.

Our Founding


to look at the caliber of people who say they serve him. They are always of two classes: fools and hypocrites

I do not find in orthodox Christianity one redeeming feature. Christianity neither is, nor ever was a part of the common law." (Thomas Jefferson, February 10, 1814).

"What influence, in fact, have ecclesiastical establishments had on society? In some instances they have been seen to erect a spiritual tyranny on the ruins of the civil authority; on many instances they have been seen upholding the thrones of political tyranny; in no instance have they been the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wish to subvert the public liberty may have found an established clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate it, needsof church and state was THE FUNDAMENTAL COMPONENT to ensuring a free republic. Losing sight of this all-important concept was to lose sight of freedom itself, to lose sight of Jesus himself.

My apologies for not posting in a while. Life, work, etc. has been busy as of late. I hope to post something later tonight, but for now, here's a brief time out from the traditional (and perhaps boring) history, religion, political stuff that I normally do.

One of my all-time favorite bands on the planet is a Mexican group called Maná. Being that I lived for two years in South America, I developed a love for latin rock, and these guys are the very best. I actually got to see them live in Las Vegas,


Tea Party activist. She is "100% certain" that her ancestor would be leading a tea party demonstration if he was alive today:

If Patrick Henry were alive, he would be coordinating a Tea Party today...I remember my great-grandmother talking about our family history. I am very proud. Patrick Henry gave everything to fight for his freedom. Why should it be any different now? We all need to be willing to give everything for the country we love.

Yes, Ms. Cooper's chest-thumping, tear-jerking sense of devotion to her country is inspiring but sadly, her history and understanding of her ancestor's heritage has much to be desired. As Ed Brayton points out on his blog:

[Cooper] apparently suffers from irony deficiency. With all the grandiose talk from the tea baggers about upholding thethe founding generation" and that the Founding Fathers would "all be marching with us." Mr Whittle goes on to suggest that George Washington would have declared war on Barack Obama for his economic bailout and that Jefferson would have joined him, based on Thomas Jefferson's infamous quote that, "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it's natural manure."(A quote, incidentally, that inspired the likes of Timothy McVeigh)

Well, sadly Mr. Whittle's history is every bit as lacking as Ms. Cooper's. First off, it's unlikely that Washington would "declare war" on Obama for the bailout since he himself allowed his Secretary of Treasury, Alexander Hamilton to do something similar. And as for Jefferson's infamous "Tree of Liberty"


that our nation's official anthem is nothing more than a poem commemorating a bombardment we barely survived, put to the tune of an old British drinking song. Hardly the inspiring anthem so many make it out to be! But hey, that's just me and I realize that many Americans love the song. So be it.

But whether you like "The Star-Spangled Banner" or not, everyone should recognize the fact that it doesn't have the patriotic history everyone assumes. In fact, the "original" national anthem of this fair land, which was in place from roughly the time of George Washington to FDR, was muscled out by Francis Scott Key's over-dramatic drinking song. That's right folks, the "Star-Spangled Banner" has a relatively recent history as America's national anthem; a history thattoil and blood, the well-earned prize,While off'ring peace, sincere and just,In Heaven's we place a manly trust,That truth and justice will prevail,And every scheme of bondage fail.

Behold the chief who now commands,Once more to serve his country stands.The rock on which the storm will break,The rock on which the storm will break,But armed in virtue, firm, and true,His hopes are fixed on Heav'n and you.When hope was sinking in dismay,When glooms obscured Columbia's day,His steady mind, from changes free,Resolved on death or liberty.

Sound, sound the trump of fame,Let Washington's great fameRing through the world with loud applause,Ring through the world with loud applause,Let ev'ry clime to freedom dear,Listen with a joyful ear,With equal skill, with God-like pow'rHe governs in the fearful hourOf horrid war, or guides with easeThe


happier time of honest peace.

ChorusFirm, united let us be,Rallying round our liberty,As a band of brothers joined,Peace and safety we shall find.

Now, it probably sounds strange to some when they discover that "Hail Columbia" was America's "original" anthem. After all, what does Columbia have to do with America?

Well, first off, we're not talking about the Columbia where all that lovely "mota" and cocaine come from. This Columbia is quite different. The Columbia of America's earliest generations was the female personification of her "discoverer," Christopher Columbus. Columbia's role as a symbol became obvious to all Americans. Whether she served as the title of a city, a river, a college or a monument, Columbia's role in American culture was ever-present. Much in the same way that Britannia became the femalepersonification (and Roman goddess) of Britain, Columbia was the feminine guardian of the new American republic. In other words, she was sort of the Uncle Sam before Uncle Sam.

And Columbia's influence didn't stop with the founding. She can be seen throughout the course of America's history. From the very name of our capitol city (Washington, District of Columbia) to the very first space shuttle ever commissioned by NASA. She was present in American artwork like the one above depicting Columbia's divine protection to western settlers on their quest to secure the country's "Manifest Destiny," and she even graces the opening credits of several modern movies. Heck, many Americans have (incorrectly) suggested that she was even the inspiration for "Lady Liberty" herself. Bottom line, Columbia's role as a symbol


of the Constitution, most Americans knew that they were not yet a nation, at least not in the European sense of the term. At the end of the Declaration of Independence the members of the Continental Congress had been able only to "mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our Sacred Honor." In 1776 there was nothing else but themselves that they could have dedicated themselves to -- no patria, no fatherland, no nation as yet.

[...]

The fact that most Americans were of British heritage and spoke the same language as the subjects of the former mother country created problems of national identity that troubled the new Republic over the next several decades. Indeed, almost to the movement of independence the colonists had continued to definethemselves as British, and only reluctantly came to see themselves as a separate people called Americans. The colonists were well aware of the warning of John Dickinson, the most important pamphleteer in America before Thomas Paine, had given them on the eve of independence. "If we are separated from our mother country," he asked in 1768, "what new form of government shall we adopt, and where shall we find another Britain to supply our loss? Torn from the body, to which we are united by religion, liberty, laws, affection, relation, language and commerce we must bleed at every vein."

Could the colonists who had been British and who had celebrated their Britishness for generations become a truly independent people? How could one united people descended from the same ancestors,


speaking the same language, and professing the same Protestant religion differentiate themselves from the people of the mother country? These questions, perhaps more than any others, bedeviled the politics of the early decades of the new Republic's history.

If there were to be a single national people with a national character, Americans would have to invent themselves, and in some sense the whole of American history has been the story of that invention. At first, they struggled with a proper name for their country. On the tercentenary celebration of Columbus's discovery of America in 1792 one patriot suggested "The United States of Columbia" as a name for the new Republic. Poets, ranging from the female black slave Phillis Wheatley to the young Princeton graduate Phillip Freneau, saw the logicof the name and thus repeatedly referred to the nation as Columbia. With the same rhythm and number of syllables, Columbia could easily replace Britannia in new compositions set to the music of traditional English songs.

As illustrated above, early Columbians...er...Americans had a difficult time understanding what their new nation was supposed to look like. The pull of tradition from the Old World and the allure of new possibilities brought on by the Enlightenment, obscured America's sense of itself. This is the precise reason why Columbia became such a popular symbol. While so much was still up in the air, Columbia was, at the very least, the embodiment of what it truly meant to be American.

But alas, as the saying goes, all good things must come to an end.


With the onset of nationalism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, America's sense of itself began to change. And with that change, Columbia's presence in American culture began to fade. "Hail Columbia," which had never been made an official national anthem, found itself in a contest with other popular songs like, "My Country Tis of Thee," "America the Beautiful," and yes "The Star-Spangled Banner." Like most nations of this era, the creation of official anthems became an important component of surging nationalism, and in the United States, the "Star-Spangled Banner" was gaining ground. Thanks in large part to the attention given it a professional baseball games, the "Star-Spangled Banner" became a quasi-national tradition. Long story short, the song's popularity grew over the next thirty years, untilfinally in 1931 when President Hoover and Congress officially made "The Star-Spangled Banner" America's anthem. In addition, Key's suggestion that the national motto be changed from "E Pluribus Unum" (From Many, One) to "In God We Trust" (inspired from the 4th verse of his song/poem) was later accepted and made law in 1956. In short, the rise of nationalism in the 19th and 20th centuries led to many of the changes we now accept as a part of the American culture.

But Columbia wasn't completely lost. Her presence, though very limited, is still around. All you have to do is look for her. And who knows, maybe she'll return one day! As for her song, "Hail Columbia," well, it went from being the unofficial anthem of a nation to


And as America's pastime, I believe baseball is an important component to our culture. It is fused with so many important milestones of the past century. From World War I and II to 9-11, baseball has served as the medicine of the masses; a chance to unplug and root, root, root for the home team!

Anyway, I thought that since the 2010 season is upon us, this might be a good time to introduce a new series on my blog: the top 10 best players at each position. And to start us off, let's look at the guys behind the plate:

10.) Bill DickeyIn the 30s and 40s, Dickey was the rock behind the plate for the Yankees. His durability and consistency were all overshadowed by the flamboyant Joe DiMaggiobehind home plate. His stick might not have been as good as Piazza's, but his glove and arm were light years ahead. Carter won three Gold Gloves during his time as a Met and was an eleven-time all-star.

7.) Carlton FiskArguably the most durable man to squat behind a plate. Fisk holds the record for most games played by a catcher (2499). He also won 3 Silver Slugger awards and 1 Golden Glove. He finished his career with 2356 hits, 376 home runs and a career average of .269.

6.) Ted SimmonsSimmons is, in my opinion, the most underrated catcher ever. The switch-hitting catcher spent 21 years in the big leagues, and retired with more RBI than Johnny Bench, more runs scored than Gary Carter, more hits than Carlton Fisk,


and a higher batting average than Yogi Berra. But like Piazza, he sucked at defense.

5.) Roy CampanellaThis three-time MVP, Campanella was a dominant force for the Dodgers. Sadly, a car accident cut him short (a career that started late due to segregation), prohibiting his ability to further his awesome legacy. Campanella finished with 1,161 hits, 242 home runs and a .276 average. But he could have had MUCH more.

4.) Mickey CochraneMickey was the quintessential "coach" on the field. In his day, Cochrane ran the pitching squad and controlled most of the on field issues. His bat wasn't amazing. He hit only 119 home runs but finished with a .320 career average. What Cochrane lacked in lumber he made up for with his arm and glove.

3.) Ivan RodriguezWhen itcomes to defense, he was one of the best. Even the greatest base runners thought twice when Rodriguez was behind the plate. This eleven-time Gold Glove winner (he won 10 in a row), Rodriguez was a fourteen-time all-star and won the MVP in 1999. He finished his career with 2711 hits, 305 home runs and an average of .299.

2.) Yogi BerraBerra was the epitome of consistency. As the MVP in 1951, 54 and 55, Berra anchored a dynasty that won him ten World Series rings. He also finished his career as the all-time leader in RBI's for a catcher (1430). When it comes to overall consistency, it's hard to find anyone better.

1.) Johnny BenchNo doubt about it, Bench was the best. As a ten-time Gold Glove winner, MVP


and here), Francis Bellamy, a popular Baptist minister and Christian socialist, was asked to draft words for a flag pledge that would be used to bolster the schoolhouse flag movement. The recitation of the pledge was also to be accompanied by the "Bellamy Salute" (as depicted in the picture at the top of this post), but was later changed during World War II to simply placing ones hand over their heart for obvious reasons.

The original words to Bellamy's first pledge are very interesting and would surely horrify every wannabe Paul Revere tea fanatic:

I pledge allegiance to my flag and to the republic for which it stands, one nation indivisible, with equality and fraternity for all.

Equality and fraternity are a noteworthy selection of words. After all, they are twoof the three words (Liberté, égalité, fraternité) used in the national motto of France; a motto that originated in their revolution. In addition, Liberty, Equality and Fraternity were also key words (scary words to the tea-sippers) in the Christan socialist movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Bellamy was a passionate voice for socialism and advocated for complete government control of education in America. In addition, it was his hope that the pledge would become a standard practice in all public schools. His wish was granted in 1940 when the Supreme Court, in Minersville School District v. Gobitis ruled that all students, including Jehovah's Witnesses who detested the pledge on the basis that it was idolatrous and made a graven image out of the flag, were


Pilgrims, the Mayflower and the settlement of the "New World." This brave tale of pious Puritan paupers making a new home in a strange land is as American as apple pie.

This book uncovers what might seem to be a dark side of the American dream: the New World from the viewpoint of those who decided not to stay. At the core of the volume are the life histories of people who left New England during the British Civil Wars and Interregnum, 1640–1660. More than a third of the ministers who had stirred up emigration from England deserted their flocks to return home. The colonists’ stories challenge our perceptions of early settlement and the religious ideal of New England as a "City on a Hill." America was a stagein their journey, not an end in itself.

Susan Hardman Moore first explores the motives for migration to New England in the 1630s and the rhetoric that surrounded it. Then, drawing on extensive original research into the lives of hundreds of migrants, she outlines the complex reasons that spurred many to brave the Atlantic again, homeward bound. Her book ends with the fortunes of colonists back home and looks at the impact of their American experience.

Of exceptional value to studies of the connections between the Old and New Worlds, Pilgrims contributes to debates about the nature of the New England experiment and its significance for the tumults of revolutionary England.

in their social status, which, in turn, helps his audience understand the elementary aspects of peasant insurgencies.

In summation, Guha’s Elementary Aspects of Peasant Insurgency is a striking summation of the “behind the scenes” events that triggered a plethora of peasant rebellions in India. By focusing on the subaltern, Guha presents his audience with an alternative perspective to traditional, Eurocentric Indian historiography. The appeal of his work should therefore be seen through the lens of the often-voiceless subaltern, who, according to Guha, have left behind and indelible impression on Indian history. And though many of his conclusions are likely to be challenged, Guha’s work is sure to remain relevant to the discussion of Indian peasantry and subaltern studies for many years to come.

The following is a brief introduction toan interesting and controversial book that was recently published by Yale University Press. The Myth of American Exceptionalism by Godfrey Hodgson, a Fellow at the Rothermere American Institute, University of Oxford, takes a quasi-antagonistic stance against the idea of American povidentialism and its alleged impediment of America's true heritage and purpose. From Yale University Press:

The idea that the United States is destined to spread its unique gifts of democracy and capitalism to other countries is dangerous for Americans and for the rest of the world, warns Godfrey Hodgson in this provocative book. Hodgson, a shrewd and highly respected British commentator, argues that America is not as exceptional as it would like to think; its blindness to its own history has bred a complacent nationalism and a disastrous foreign


Once there, Madplume insisted that the witness get into the water with him. The witness said he didn’t want to, citing two missing toes that had been amputated because of diabetes. He said Madplume convinced him to get in, saying it would help his foot, and once in the water, Madplume allegedly touched the man’s inner thigh while examining the foot.

The witness said Madplume made other advances in the water, as well as the sauna. When they returned to the pool, Madplume told him to turn around and take off his swimming trunks, the man said.

When he questioned why, the man said Madplume replied “You know what I mean.” The witness tried to get out of the water, but said Madplume shoved him back in.

Police maintain a perimeter around the house where the Savopoulos family was killed. Credit:Chip Somokdevilla The break in the case that has transfixed the region came after police matched Wint to DNA found on the crust of a Domino's pizza that had been ordered to the house the night of May 13, as the victims were being held, according to three law enforcement officials with knowledge of the investigation. The package containing money was dropped at the house on the morning of May 14, and hours later the four occupants would be dead. Information about the money drop added a perplexing new dimension to a case that has riveted upper northwest Washington as well as the District of Columbia's business and society circles with which the couple hadhad been helping Savopoulos, who was rushing to complete a martial arts studio in Chantilly, Virginia. It was unclear whether the assistant made contact with anyone inside the house when he delivered the money. Police documents show that he was at a hardware store near the Chantilly studio in western Fairfax County from 11.30am to noon May 14 and was still in Virginia when 911 calls came later that afternoon about the fire 50 kilometres away in Washington. Smashed windows and heavy fire damage scar the Savopoulos home. Credit:Chip Somodevilla District of Columbia police have not disclosed whether they know of a motive for the killings. But a timeline of Savvas Savopoulos's movements is beginning to emerge from the police documents.

The documents show a flurry of phone calls


among Savvas Savopoulos, a bank, an accountant, the personal assistant, a construction company executive and Savopoulos's American Iron Works company in the hours before the fire. The calls started shortly after 7am on May 14 and ended just before noon. The fire was reported at 1.15pm. Washington police secure the vicinity around the fire-damaged multimillion-dollar home on May 20. Credit:AP The assistant, who did not return messages left on his cellphone Wednesday, tried to call Savvas Savopoulos about 1.40pm but got no answer, the police documents show. Savvas Savopoulos had called the assistant at 11.54am - the last incoming or outgoing call he made or answered before the fire. The four victims were found on the second floor of the Savopoulos home. Police have said little about howthey were killed, other than that three had wounds consistent with blunt force or a sharp object. Authorities also have said the fire was intentionally set. Savvas Savopoulos was the president and chief executive of American Iron Works, which supplies metal to large building projects across the region. He and his wife were active in Washington social circles and with charitable and political fundraising. The funeral for the Savopoulos family is June 1 at St. Sophia Greek Orthodox Cathedral in northwest Washington. Two teenage daughters were away in boarding school at the time of the killings. Figueroa's body will be flown to her native El Salvador for burial.

Authorities have been trying to determine when the family and housekeeper were last safe and when they encountered the killer or


killers. One longtime American Iron Works employee told police that he last saw Savvas Savopoulos at the Chantilly studio about 6pm May 13, according to police documents. That employee told investigators that workers had been rushing to complete the martial arts studio, which had a grand opening planned for May 15. Savopoulos appeared on several internet boards as a martial arts hobbyist and was involved in some exclusive clubs for the sport. A second housekeeper, Nelitza Gutierrez, has reported a strange series of voice mails and text messages from Savvas and Amy Savopoulos beginning the night of May 13. Gutierrez, who has worked for the family for 20 years, said in an interview that the messages left her with the impression that something was amiss with her employers.She said that on May 13, Savvas Savopoulos had asked her not to come to Washington home the next day - the day of the killings - even though she normally worked there on Thursdays. Instead, he told Gutierrez that he preferred her help the following day with the grand opening in Chantilly. Gutierrez said Savvas Savopoulos left her a voice mail on May 13, saying that Figueroa, the housekeeper who was killed, planned to stay overnight at the family's home, which she described as unusual. He said in the message that Amy Savopoulos was ill, that Philip was recovering from a concussion and that the family needed Figueroa's help. Savvas Savopoulos asked Gutierrez to let Figueroa's family know not to expect her.

Gutierrez said she didn't hear the


voice mail until the morning of May 14. She called Amy Savopoulos and got no answer. Just before 10am, Gutierrez said, she got a text message from Amy Savopoulos: "I am making sure you do not come today." On May 15, the day after the killings, the personal assistant called the veteran American Iron Works employee's cellphone "and was crying," according to the police documents. The assistant "stated that he had dropped off a package" at the Savopoulos house on May 14, on his way to Chantilly, the documents say. Police have released a video of a person of interest who may be linked to the Porsche that went missing and was later found torched in Prince George's County. Police also are looking into the text messages andwas summoned by our mandate to make.

CAIRO, July 4 (Reuters) - Egyptian security forces arrested the supreme guide of the Muslim Brotherhood on Thursday in the northern city of Marsa Matrouh following the military overthrow of Islamist President Mohamed Mursi, security sources said.

Police tracked Mohamed Badie to the city, which is near the Libyan border but did not believe he was trying to flee the country, the sources said.

The prosecutor's office ordered his arrest earlier on Thursday, along with his influential deputy Khairat el-Shater.

Brotherhood spokesman Gehad El-Haddad said he could not confirm whether Badie had been arrested.

are naturally rooting for the cute and innocent hatchling iguanas, which face a truly horrifying situation. So when one little marine iguana miraculously escapes the inescapable the relief we feel is tangible.

The location – Fernandina island in Galapagaos – is a truly remarkable place. The purity of its essence and the beauty of its stark, raw, pristine state is otherworldly and humbling to a degree. It is a great privilege to be given the chance to witness such an extraordinary place and be allowed by the Galapagos National Park to film there. I am indebted to them for their trust in me and honoured to be able to portray a small window into the life of this place for people around the world to appreciate.

The iguanas’ small sizeand turn of pace made their flight from the racers very challenging to film. Often they would explode into a sprint pursued by a mass of snakes and we would lose the action behind a lump of lava or other obstacle.

When the end of the spring wrapped around the driving arbor is held, the spring is forced to unwind and loosen its grip on the driving arbor. When this occurs, driving of the driven arbor ceases.
When the end of the spring wrapped around the driving arboris released so as to be able to rotate with the driving arbor, the driving arbor rotates the spring to cause the driven arbor to rotate. The spring has its other end secured to the driven arbor so that it is wrapped down on the driven arbor at all times.
A slight variation in the diameter of the spring or a slight variation in the outer diameter of either or both of the two arbors can occur during manufacturing. To negate the effects of these manufacturing variations, wrap spring clutches have previously been manually adjusted. This adjustment has the potential of misadjustment at a later time to require repairs on the assembly line or in a customer's office.
Furthermore, wear of the wrap spring and the two mating arbors during


Fontana, Calif. — Austin Dillon won the pole for the NASCAR Cup Series race in Auto Club Speedway on Friday after no drivers completed a lap in the final round of qualifying.

Dillon got his fourth career pole essentially by default after a bizarre scene that ended with fans booing the drivers when they all waited too long to start their last laps.

“I have seen it in other sports, but never seen it in ours,” Clint Bowyer said. “We just got booed, and it is disappointing.”

With all 12 final-round drivers determined to go out as late as possible in a drafting group, every car idled near the front of the pit road in a Southern California-style traffic jam from the start of the five-minute final session until roughly 44Lem’s latest: Hopkins assesses Khan’s chances in Peterson’s back yard

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Bernard Hopkins has two draws on his 60-bout record, and each of them occurred in the home town of his rival.

Hopkins rose from knockdowns in the fifth and seventh rounds of his draw with Segundo Mercado in Quito, Ecuador in December of 1994, only to vanquish Mercado in the seventh round for the vacant IBF belt in April of 1995 in Laurel, MD.

In December of last year, Hopkins rose from two knockdowns during his draw with RING No. 1-rated light heavyweight Jean Pascal in the latter’s native Canada before returning to Canada to dethrone Pascal as WBC beltholder by unanimous decision in May.

“It’s like in football, like basketball, like hockey, I think that when you go

A graduate of Gwynn Park High where he played football as a star linebacker, Mitchell was named Maryland’s Defensive Player of the Year as a senior.

But life was not always easy for Mitchell, who grew up with little knowledge of a father who separated from his mother, Jeanette Mitchell, when he was 5.learning," said Sundre. "Assessment Day is part of the JMU culture."

Student participation, the assessment instruments CARS designs and the university's commitment to student learning make JMU an international leader in assessment and measurement.

Thanos Patelis, vice president of research and analysis for the College Board, said there is a lot of attention in our country on K-12 assessment but not enough on higher education. "When we think about what is important for our country, we need more assessment centers like JMU has," said Patelis. "JMU is a front-runner and one of the few institutions that do it right."

JMU's commitment to assessment started in 1985 when the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia awarded JMU a grant to study assessment and accountability at the university. This was followed in


1988 with permanent funding from SCHEV for an Assessment Center.

Highlights of the last 25 years include creating a doctoral program in assessment and measurement, supporting JMU's first spin-off company, Madison Assessment, and being recognized an unprecedented two times in the last six years by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation as recipient of the CHEA Award for Outstanding Institutional Practice in Student Learning Outcomes.

Sundre says it's the scope, breadth and depth of assessment that make JMU stand out. "We conduct assessment on the General Education program, student affairs and on all the majors," she said. From the beginning CARS included student affairs in its assessment efforts, which is unusual at most universities.

"We hire measurement experts, so we create our own instruments," said Sundre. Other institutions started to takenotice of JMU's expertise several years ago and began purchasing assessment tests written by the CARS staff. In 2010 this led to the creation of Madison Assessment LLC, a company that markets tests licensed by CARS to colleges and universities around the country and the globe.

CARS is busier than ever. Each month Sundre publishes a progress report. It reads, "Progress toward achieving the CARS mission during the month was evidenced by the following activities and achievements." The April report was six pages of research, papers and presentations.

"JMU is a very self-reflective institution that revolves around student growth and development and that is the heart of what assessment is," said Sundre.

Anderson, associate director of the Center for Assessment and Research Studies and associate professor in graduate psychology, had the


honor of placing the hoods, the academic regalia signifying completion of their doctoral degrees, on Javarro Russell and Megan France, her two advisees.

The excitement felt by Russell and France at earning their doctorates in assessment and measurement was matched by the thrill Anderson felt to mentor her two advisees to this moment.

"I was excited by all the possibilities that are before Megan and Javarro," said Anderson. "They each have the potential to impact our global society in truly meaningful ways. I see no end to what they can accomplish."

The First One

Anderson was not just the first JMU graduate with a doctorate in assessment and measurement, she was the first one in the world. JMU pioneered the way and is still one of the few programs in the countryto offer a blend of theory-based course work and real-world assessment experience.

For Anderson it was the equal emphasis on the psychology of the person taking the test and the expertise in measurement to create an assessment test that drew her to the program.

Anderson graduated in 2001 and went to work for the Virginia Community College System as the director of institutional research and effectiveness. In 2007 she was recruited back to JMU to work for CARS and, like her colleagues, take on the dual role of teaching in the assessment and measurement program.

Anderson values the opportunity she has had to advise Russell and France through the doctoral program. "A real strength of our program is we work on the mentoring relationship of advising," she said.

Reflecting on the differences


support and guidance necessary to help us excel as researchers, practitioners and individuals," she said.

"We all have a sense of pride about this program," said France. "I recently returned from a conference in New Orleans that many JMU students and faculty attended. I heard over and over from people outside of the program how great the JMU presentations were. It was wonderful to see so many JMU alumni, current students and future graduates together in one place."

Russell and France are good representatives of where students in JMU's assessment and measurement program go after graduation, often to a testing environment or into higher education.

Russell has accepted employment at the National Board of Medical Examiners as a psychometrician. "I will be ensuring the quality of scores on an exam thatis used for the licensure of medical doctors in the United States," said Russell. "I will also be working with medical schools to identify appropriate pre-licensure assessments for their students."

France will begin her career as the director of assessment for the School of Education and Counseling Psychology at Santa Clara University in California. She will work closely with the faculty by assisting with the development of student learning outcomes, design and data analysis and report writing. "From an employment perspective, in a time where jobs are hard to come by, I was able to choose the job I wanted and choose where I wanted to live," said France. "There is a high demand for the people this program produces."

Like her advisees, Anderson will also move on this summer


as she takes on the role of department head of JMU's graduate psychology programs in July.

Thanos Patelis, vice president of research and analysis for the College Board, who has hired several graduates of the assessment and measurement doctoral program, said the JMU students receive great training, not just in content and philosophy but in the practice and application of assessment. "It is not just the occasional star coming out of JMU, they're all stars," said Patelis.After all her deliberation about whether or not she was going to go, Weiss finally found herself standing at the towering entrance to the gym. It easily stood out from the rest of the residences and small shops around there, as it was lined with giant, tinted windows with bands of yellow in between all the panes and complete with the name "GOLD'S GYM" wrapped around the building – Weiss bet that she could see the sign from three blocks away. It would be impossible for her to turn back and lie to her roommate about how she'd lost her way there. The white-haired girl sighed. Well, I guess there's no turning back now, huh. She pushed through the double doors and went inside.

It did not take long


for Weiss to find where her trainer was. Unsurprisingly, she was in the middle of a workout, likely trying to get in her own exercise before attending to her trainee. Weiss took this moment to survey her – she had to admit, Yang had an amazing body. She had the strong legs and firm abs that many girls who frequent the gym build, certainly, but the blonde also had arms and shoulders powerful enough to put some of the men in the gym to shame. However, that is not to say that she lacked womanly features; Yang boasted an ample chest – which definitely did not make Weiss feel insecure about her own little breasts – and a golden mane of hair that, even when tied back, reachedher for a moment, hand on her mouth as she contemplated something. "I know what's going on – your form is a bit off. Here, try to set yourself up for the lift, but don't actually move." When she crouched down, Weiss once again assumed the position from before, but right as she settled in, something warm and soft tickled her back, causing her to jolt upward on reflex. Alarmed, the heiress wrenched her head to face the perpetrator.

"What the hell are you doing?!" she yelped. However, Yang simply looked at her with a completely innocent face.

"You weren't arching your back just then," the trainer stated matter-of-factly, "which means that you can't lift nearly as much as you could. When you lift the bar with an arched back


those hands caress her for hours to come, touching her in all her gentle sp- whoa there, Weiss, calm down. Now's not the time for those kind of thoughts. Snapping out of her trance, she realized that she had an exercise to do. Sure enough, Yang's advice worked, for she, with some difficulty, managed to finish one more set before her arms once more surrendered their strength.

"See? Just a little bit of a position change, and suddenly you realize that you're stronger than you think!" the blonde encouraged, her characteristic cheerful smile returning to her face.

"I feel… I feel like this… this is going to hurt a lot sometime soon," Weiss breathed out between gasps for air, feeling the strain in her limbs.

Yang's cheerfulness slowly turned to mischief."Oh, we're just getting started, princess." Her voice was filled with a foreboding that made Weiss swallow.

The two girls continued around the gym, bouncing from one machine or bench to the next, Weiss learning a new exercise in each place, with varying success. In most cases, many of her shortcomings came from a lack of proper posture while performed any given exercise, meaning that Yang had to constantly mold her into the right position. Naturally, the proud heiress found this slightly humiliating, seeing as she never seemed to be getting anything right, but at the same time, she secretly enjoyed the blonde's touch guiding her. There are only a handful of people in this world which she would permit to be in physical contact with her– namely her


propped herself up on the adjacent power rack in an effort to keep herself from falling over – she was not about to embarrass herself two days in a row.

"Alright, now watch my form. Feet shoulder width apart, the bar resting on the back of the shoulders, but not quite on the neck, because that's going to cause undue stress, alright? Now bring down the bar slowly, keeping your chest straight and…"

Yang continued to give her directions on what to observe while she performed the squats, but Weiss's attention soon shifted to watching the blonde's body in motion. However, the heiress did not notice the proper technique that Yang was demonstrating, instead taking in… just Yang herself. She already knew that this buxom blonde had a natural beautyto her, but seeing it in action simply enraptured her. Seeing all the muscles, shimmering with sweat, tense and relax as she rose and fell mesmerized her. Her legs, her back, her arms, everything seemed to ripple with raw power, and yet that strength didn't detract from her beauty – rather, it added to it. Weiss let her eyes wander over her body until– okay, wow, she wasn't kidding, that is fantastic ass. She saw how Yang pushed it in and out in each squat, almost showing it off on purpose. All of this set her mind on fire, and she had no idea how these feelings were taking over her thoughts. Okay, Weiss, calm down, this is not okay, you can't seriously be lusting after someone like

His multiplecatheter covering the dilator was sent into the intrahepatic biliary duct together with the dilator. One end of the catheter remained in the duct and the other end was fixed to the skin after the dilator was removed, so that a fistulous channel from outside to the intrahepatic duct was established. Physiological saline was injected into the targeted biliary duct through the guidewire and the sheath of a rigid choledochoscope. Lithotripsy was performed once the calculus was found, and the shattered calculi were flushed out with physiological saline by "wash and suction" technology. The calculus could also be taken out with a basket (NTSE-045065-UDH; Cook Medical) or a clamp (Ureteral Grasping Forceps; Richard Wolf Medical Instruments Corporation, Vernon Hills, IL). Stenosis of the biliary duct was expanded with


a series of soft expanders or a biliary balloon dilator, and the stricture could be cut open by an electric knife for columnar stenosis (tubular stricture), which is usually found in the scar stricture of the bile duct, before expansion (mannitol was injected into biliary tract before cutting it open). A drainage catheter of 14 Fr was indwelled beyond the stricture fragment, and the support catheter was indwelled for 8 to 11 months. All operational manipulations were performed within the sheath or biliary ducts, and the instruments did not come in contact with the wall of the sinus. The remnant calculus was evaluated by postoperative imaging examination, and a suitable withdrawal time of the indwelled drainage catheter was determined depending on the postoperative condition.

The procedure was undertakenperformed under the guidance of CT or B-ultrasound. The puncture site at the dilated biliary duct with an optimal entrance angle was selected; the lateral abdominal wall close to the caudal of the xiphoid process was usually the primary entrance site; B2, B3a, and B3b, the dilated biliary ducts in the left lateral lobe, were usually used as puncture sites or the right mid-clavicular line was the entrance site, and the dilated biliary ducts B7a and B6c were used as puncture sites to avoid blood vessels, the intestine, and the chest cavity. The cholangioscopic lithotripsy was direct from the skin to targeted biliary ducts from an expanded fistulous tract. All PTCSL operations were successful in the current report. In our study, PTCSL shortened the whole lithotripsy period, the

After the vegetable stand had been built on premises that also belonged to Munson and Hewes, Blair was injured in falling from a truck that was the property of Kuhn, and which the latter and Schramm had directed to be used in transporting the vegetable stand from the place where it had been built to the place where it was to be used in Kuhn's store.

Thereafter, and before the date of the happening of the accident in question, at the instance of Rose the National Automobile Insurance Company issued its policy, presumably for the protection of Schramm only. However, instead of issuing the policy in that manner, it purported to protect the individual members of the former partnership, which at that time no longer was in existence; but, as before, the new policy did cover the premises and the business known as "Bill's Market". On the delivery of the policy to Schramm, which was on the day before the accident in question occurred, Schramm at once discovered the mistake which had been made, and immediately notified National Automobile Insurance Company thereof. Six days thereafter the policy was corrected infar as they were instrumental in effecting such insurance, were the acts of petitioner (the insurance company); and where it appeared that the insured acted in good faith in his application for the policy, a mistake made therein by such agents in the designation of the insured, which was acted upon by the petitioner (insurance company), was the act of petitioner".

Blair and Kuhn prepared the original plan and specifications for the construction of the vegetable stand, and later Kuhn suggested a material change therein that was accepted by Blair and incorporated in the job as completed. To some extent Kuhn supervised the work of construction. Munson and Hewes actually furnished the materials and the place for doing the work. Following the completion of the construction of the vegetable stand, Kuhn and Schramm collaborated to the extent that Kuhn furnished a truck to transport the vegetable stand to Kuhn's store, and Schramm in having at least one of his regular employees assist in such transportation.

Agency spokesman Kevin Watler said the man was walking past bushes near Nundy Avenue when the brown and black domestic shorthair cat jumped out of and grabbed onto his foot. He shot the cat, Walter said.

The victim is now undergoing treatment for exposure to rabies, a potentially fatal disease of the nervous system. He is expected to recover.

A 60-day rabies alert has been issued for the area north from Symmes Road to the Alafia River and east-to-west between East Bay Road and U.S. 41. Watler said the alert is intended to bring awareness that there might be rabid


animals in the area and make sure residents and visitors are cautious.

Rabies cases in Hillsborough County have spiked in 2018, according to figures from the health department. So far in 2018, nine rabid animals have exposed 20 people and four dogs to the disease. Of those animals, six were cats, two were bats and one was a raccoon. In July, a Sun City Center woman was bitten by a rabid bat that clung to her arm in a parking lot. She didn't know it was there until she got home, she told DOH at the time.

In 2017, DOH said only three rabid animals were found to have exposed 10 people.

"We know that there are more animals out there that may have it," Watler said.
