where they kill nearly all the inhabitants. A small group of Thals use explosives to seal the Daleks and Davros in a Kaled bunker but the Fourth Doctor speculates that they have only delayed the Dalek development and rise to power by a matter of centuries.

Other appearances
The Thals are mentioned, but not shown, in the TV Century 21 Dalek comic strip story Genesis of Evil (1965). In the narrative the Thals are stated to be a peaceful race, originally inhabiting the continent of Davius, who are at war with the Daleks; short, aggressive, blue-skinned humanoids who inhabit the continent of Dalazar. The Daleks plan to use a neutron bomb against the Thals but a meteorite storm detonates it prematurely, causing planet-wide destruction in which the Thals apparently perish.

ThalsBelgium is a stunning collection of young and talented players who play for some of the big clubs in England, Spain and Germany. They are replete with talent in every part of the field with players that are versatile and most of them are yet to reach the zenith of their careers. With 10 eminent stars from the English Premier League, and dynamic midfielders of the quality of Zenit St Petersburg’s Axel Witsel and Wolfsburg’s Kevin De Bruyne – as well as Atlético Madrid’s on-loan-from-Chelsea shot stopper, Thibaut Courtois, it is palpable that this nation has been blessed with a gifted generational surfeit of young talent.Yet as talent-laden as they are, the Red Devils remain one of the international game’s greatest conundrums. Having failed to qualify for a


attacking football in the world cup. While it’s pleasing to see teams play football (attack) and score a lot of goals, it’s equally important for teams to know when to attack and how. Hitting teams on the counter, and when they are most vulnerable is another favourable asset that the Belgian side possesses with just the right players to do so.

KEY PLAYERS

Axel Witsel | The dynamic midfielder is a fixture at the base of Belgium’s midfield. Axel Witsel is a midfielder who is technically strong, and physically imposing as well. As mentioned above, he is very important to Wilmots and how he sets his team up. Witsel is the player who protects the back 4 and the team during defensive transitions, and helps launching attacks, by getting theball to skillful players like Hazard in front of him. He is the man that keeps Belgium ticking over, so watch him.

Eden Hazard | Of course, he needs no introduction. While there are a number of excellent players that Belgium have across the park, Hazard is that special talent that can make a difference for his team. His attacking abilities are beyond exceptional, with pace, power, and precision at the heart of all that he does. Hazard can be the one to break a tight defence, or score an important goal on the counter for his team. His form, offensively, and his work rate defensively, are very important to Belgium.

TALENT RADAR KEY YOUNG PLAYERS

Romelu Lukaku | Lukaku, who scored his first hattrick for Belgium against Luxembourg, now holds


the record for the most number of goals (65) scored by a player in the league when turning 21 surpassing previous record holder Lionel Messi (57), and others like Michael Owen (55) & Wayne Rooney (44). The stage is set for Lukaku to shine and he is surely one to watch out for. You can read a detailed Scout Report on Romelu Lukaku here. The Belgian also featured in two awards in our inaugural Talent Radar Young Player Awards, being voted by the Readers’ as the Forward of the Season, and coming into the Readers’ Team of the Season as well. Lukaku also was named in the Talent Radar Premier League team of the season.

Adnan Januzaj | Aged 19, Adnan Januzaj is set to feature in Brazil afterhis breakthrough season with Manchester United. An exciting prospect, and one of the most talented attackers in Europe, Januzaj is expected to start most of the games on the bench given the current form and calibre of fellow team mate Eden Hazard. Januzaj made his bow as a second-half substitute for Kevin Mirallas, giving a glimpse of his ability and trickery down the left wing. Adnan Januzaj was named Talent Radar Debutant of the Season.

CONCLUSION

Belgium are expected to top the group with Russia, Algeria and South Korea being the challengers. But the journey from there on seems to be a hard one for the Red Devils. If they finish top of the group, they are expected to face Portugal, if they finish second in Group G. If they

Short Bio

Nancy K. Dillon is a songwriter/performer and visual artist. She is a former KBCS-FM Folk DJ and operates a small niche radio promotions business, Rose Rock Music Services, working with independent folk/Americana artists from around the USA. Nancy is a board member of Puget’s Sound Productions. She has 3 full-length studio recordings, an EP (Live at The Royal Room) and a Christmas single (In The Bleak Midwinter). Her newest CD (A Game of Swans) was released in the USA January 2018 and debuted in the Top 20 FolkDJ Chart Albums. UK/European Release date is December 25, 2018. More information at www.nancykdillon.net.

Nancy K. Dillon is an award-winning American songwriter/performer possessing an extraordinarily warm and expressive voice, unique in its ability to reveal both strength and vulnerability. With a


finely focused musical ear, Dillon mines a vein of avant garde Americana in her compelling tales of mythopoetic darkness and light melding past and future. She has released three solo studio albums and her live project, a 6-song EP (Live at The Royal Room) was released in September 2017. A Christmas single "In the Bleak Midwinter" was released on Rose Rock Records in December 2017. Her newest full-length studio album (A Game of Swans) was released in the USA in January 2018 and in UK/Europe on December 25, 2018.

Dillon grew up in Central Oklahoma raised in a musical family by her composer/professor/jazz-player/church-choir-director father, Bob Dillon, and her mother, Betty Lou, a former vocal teacher who sang hymns around the house. After graduating from the University of Oklahoma, amove to Seattle led to travel, adventure and varied musical opportunity. Nancy performed in roots-based bands and was in demand as a backing vocalist and session singer until her decision to focus on songwriting in the New Millennium. In 2004, Dillon released her first studio solo album recorded with Grammy Award-winning engineer, Garey Shelton. A rootsy outing of mostly original songs, "Just Let Me Dream" gained airplay around the world and was highly praised by reviewers.

With the release of her 2nd album, "Roses Guide To Time Travel" (2010), Dillon began a musical exploration of her American roots. For "Roses Guide" she designed a haunting image of an old time locomotive for the cover and dedicated the album to her great-grandfather Kansas trainman and BLFE Union Officer, Asa Dillon.


In addition to performing, she continued her travels throughout the New West writing and singing songs of railroads and Okies, Texas tornados and lonely roads of red dirt.

Dillon's new album, "A Game of Swans" was inspired and informed by her passion for genealogy and hearkens back to her immigrant roots in the Old Country while maintaining her gaze firmly forward. The 12 tracks on "A Game of Swans" reveal ancestral strains of Celtic folk culture migrated to America, strains that have always flowed just beneath the surface of Dillon's music. To achieve the perfect colors, tones and authenticity for the album, contributing tracks from the UK and Scotland were blended with recordings made in the USA. UK musos, Gavin Sutherland (Sutherland Brothers & Quiver), Ian Lang (Small Change),Chris Parks (Any Trouble) and Ollie Collins (Badly Drawn Boy/Angie Palmer) combine their prodigious talents with American contributors Stacy Phillips (Dobro), Michael Connelly (fiddle/uilleann pipes/penny whistle), Wes Weddell (mandolin), Chris Leighton (percussion), Garey Shelton (bass guitar/engineer) and harmony vocalists, Joy Mills and Tom Parker.

Inspired by the varied migratory paths taken by both her Southern Loyalist and Scots-Irish Presbyterian forebears as they aimed towards better futures, Dillon herself took flight from her beloved home state of Oklahoma into the vast American West. Settling in the verdant beauty of the Pacific Northwest allows for road trips that still the mind and feed the imagination. New songs for "A Game of Swans" include originals and collaborations as well as tracks by songwriters, Drew Nelson & Janni Littlepage and Pat Long. These


12 new songs draw characters from lost gold mines, haunted pioneer cabins, a railroad hobo's last goodbye and immigrants' prayers for Civil War last chances.

Dillon writes compellingly, poetically and sometimes mysteriously in her stories in song. This talent elevates her writing far beyond the usual fare of singer-songwriters. She initially found inspiration in dreams and in traveling across the vast landscapes of the western US. The past few years she has delved deeply into her family's history in Ireland, Scotland, Europe and Britain,. This has resulted in new inspiration and newly minted stories. Dillon is traveling a path that we all should travel. She's unearthed amazing facts along the way such as her father fought in the brutal Battle of the Bulge in World War II and her7th great-grand-uncle in Scotland wrote a treatise called Lex Rex upon which the 2nd amendment was based. Through her music and through following her muse, she's uncovering the intense, heart-breaking stories that people don't always want to tell, the stories that are only whispered about in families. Her new album echoes with the strengths and challenges of history, the promise of new hopes and dreams and draws out the ghosts of many untold stories.

Echoing the New World/Old World journey, A Game of Swans was recorded half in the Northwestern US and half in the UK through the magic of the internet and several musical collaborations begun on Nancy's previous album, "Roses Guide to Time Travel". Now, "A Game of Swans" fulfills that promise and is a masterful showcase

Stuck in Savannah, Georgia, they scavenge for some weapons and make their way to Whitaker's Gun Shop. Whitaker lets them take whatever guns they want from his store if they break into a nearby store and bring him a 6-pack of cola. In exchange, he clears a roadblock for them with a rocket launcher from his roof. The survivors make their way to the nearby Liberty Mall, where they fill up the gas tank of Jimmy Gibbs Jr.'s stock car on display, and drive out of the mall's front doors.


THE PASSING: At night, the survivors arrive at a raised bridge in the port town of Rayford, Georgia. The survivors who are already there, Louis, Francis, and Zoey, tell them that they'll have to get to the other side of the bridge by going under the river, through a half-finished historic tour.

if McCormick had not wanted to agree to it, they should have gone
back to the Welfare Fund for approval to change it.
     After failing in its efforts to recover the delinquent
funds, the Welfare Fund commenced this action against McCormick
on April 22, 1993. Meanwhile, in 1991, Donald Deivert replaced
Greenawalt as President of Local 764. On June 17, 1993 -- almost
two months after the Welfare Fund filed the instant action in
federal court -- Webb executed a Memorandum of Agreement with
Deivert, acknowledging that there was an error in the 1988
Agreement. Deivert's


trumpets
that it has been prejudiced, even though it has not paid out one
penny in accordance with the erroneous written language. Before
us, the Fund asserts that theoretical concepts of reliance inhere
in the language of the agreement, when in fact the collective
bargaining history of the parties since 1983 unquestionably
reveals that both the parties to the labor agreement and the Fund
have operated on the basis of the intended formula, which the
parties have since restored. The Fund's claim of reliance
therefore amounts to an argument aptly described, in the words of
the Immortal Bard, as "full and sound and fury and signifying
nothing."

                                I.
    The facts in this case are simple and undisputed. McCormick
Dray is a trucking company that employs union drivers represented
by Teamsters Local 764. McCormick Dray and the Local negotiated
a series of collective bargaining agreements. Each of these
agreements included a provision that McCormick would pay premiums
to the Appellant Fund for the purpose of providing medical
benefits to the drivers and their families. Pursuant to these
agreements, the employees would become eligible for benefits
after they worked a specified period of time at McCormick. Prior
to 1983, that specified period of time was 30 days.
     In 1983, due to the spiraling cost of premiums and the fact
that many McCormick employees left after 30 calendar days but
before 60 calendar days, McCormick and the Local negotiated a
change in the


eligibility clause from 30 to 45 days. The Health
and Welfare Fund approved the new language. Both McCormick Dray
and the Local believed that this eligibility clause was
controlling unless subject to further negotiations. Indeed, the
next agreement, in 1985, repeated the 45-day eligibility
language, as did the 1991 agreement.
     Several months before the expiration of the 1985 agreement,
however, McCormick and the Local began to negotiate terms for the
1988 agreement. The eligibility clause was never discussed in
these negotiations, nor was any change in the clause contemplated
by the parties. A contract offer was prepared by McCormick and
submitted to the Local, which approved. Thereafter, during the
Local's preparation of the final agreement, the 45-day
eligibility language was replaced with language providing for

The patient was a 69-year-old male with a diagnosis of major depressive disorder, recurrent, severe, without psychotic features. He presented with a depressed mood and apathy. He endorsed hopelessness stating his future looked "dim". The patient had been resistant to self-care and care from staff members.

When an episode completed filming, Cobb edited on the Final Cut Pro application, which normally took four days to complete.

The Obama administration is moving to shut down nine Border Patrol stations across four states, triggering a backlash from local law enforcement, members of Congress and Border Patrol agents themselves.

Critics of the move warn the closures will undercut efforts to intercept drug and human traffickers in well-traveled corridors north of the U.S.-Mexico border. Though the affected stations are scattered throughout northern and central Texas, and three other states, the coverage areas still see plenty of illegal immigrant activity -- one soon-to-be-shuttered station in Amarillo, Texas, is right in the middle of the I-40 corridor; another in Riverside, Calif., is outside Los Angeles.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection says it's closing the stations in order to reassign agents to high-priority areas closer to the border.

"These deactivations are consistent with thethose federal officials to assist in making immigration arrests.

"It could impact us tremendously since we've only got two agents up here now for 26 counties," Potter County Sheriff Brian Thomas told FoxNews.com.

Potter County, in the Texas Panhandle, would be affected by the planned closure of the Amarillo station.

Thomas said that while his area is far from the border, it's still a major "corridor" for illegal immigrants -- and he said his office depends on Border Patrol to respond to their calls.

"I can't hold a carload of people out there on I-40 for eight hours while somebody comes from El Paso," he said. "I mean, that's just crazy."

Border Patrol's resident agent in charge in Amarillo expressed similar worries, in a recent memo to local law enforcement alerting them to


the planned closure. The official, Robert Green, warned that the "entire complement" of two agents would be reassigned from Amarillo to somewhere closer to the border. He said "there is no active plan" right now for Immigration and Customs Enforcement to fill the void on assisting local officials with stops.

[summary]

Empathizing with local officials, he wrote: "As a former deputy I found myself on the other end of the radio hoping to contact USBP to assist me with a vehicle full of undocumented foreign nationals on the side of the road."

And in an unusual plea, he urged the recipients of his memo to contact elected officials about the change. "I would encourage you, if you have found USBP assistance valuable in the past, to contact your political representatives andvoice your concerns," Green wrote.

The letter was first posted online by the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal. Thomas confirmed to FoxNews.com that he received it. Bob Dane, communications director with the Federation for American Immigration Reform, also said he's confirmed the letter's authenticity with ICE.

CBP later acknowledged the memo, but said in its statement that Green was expressing his "personal opinion."

Lawmakers have started to get involved. Republican Rep. Mac Thornberry, who represents Amarillo, joined two other Texas lawmakers whose districts would be affected in asking the Border Patrol chief to "reconsider the proposal."

A letter sent Tuesday to Fisher warned the plan would "leave our area vulnerable." They noted that the Amarillo and Lubbock stations alone, two of those affected, accounted for 638 apprehensions of illegal immigrants just this year.

FAIR also blasted


the Obama administration for the plans.

"It's part of the systematic dismantling of both border and interior enforcement," Dane told FoxNews.com. "It complements the non-enforcement policy of this administration."

He warned that local officials in those areas will have a hard time summoning far-away Border Patrol agents to assist, and said the tone of Green's memo was a "not-so-subtle shout-out" that the agency feels "outmanned, outgunned ... by their own government."

The stations set for closure in about six months include six in Texas. They are in: Lubbock, Amarillo, Dallas, San Angelo, Abilene and San Antonio. The other three are in Billings, Mont.; Twin Falls, Idaho; and Riverside, Calif.

Brooks said that the closures do not mean agents will be out of contact.

"Though Border Patrol agents would no longer be located insensors and a general idea for the branding," Amit says. "But, as is usually the case with wearables, most of the sensors brought to us were raw inventions from a medical lab. The end users are not medical professionals." In fact, in the case of Bruce's and Spolin's device, the Sproutling, the end users were babies.

When Amit (pictured above) starts working on a new project, he first makes a series of prototypes using clay, foam and wood, and starts playing around with various shapes and forms. His team works with pen and paper before anything is rendered on a computer screen. It's a process that differs from the approaches of other designers, who often take a more analytical, quantifiable approach. What's important to Amit is the serendipity that

When it came to the Sproutling, Amit took a series of plaster baby legs and calves, and developed prototypes made of foam, cardboard and, later, 3D-printed objects with Velcro. He then tested them with real babies, having them wear the devices for hours on end. "We ended up placing the sensor not on the wrist, but on the calf, with an adjustable, replaceable, elastic strap," he says. "Why? Because babies triple in size in their first year."

Amit is behind some of the most celebrated design products of the past decade: the Fitbit; the Lytro Light Field Camera, a pocket-sized camera that can focus images after they are captured; and Google's Project Ara, a modular smartphone which can be configured by swapping in different CPUs, screens and cameras. Theseof the baby. It allows them to live more predictable lives. When parents become more familiar with natural patterns, it reassures them that everything will be OK."

Jason Madara

Sproutling took nine months to design. Bruce and Spolin then took the prototypes and usability studies they had developed with Amit and presented them to investors. On January 29, 2015, they raised a $6.6 million (£4.2m) round of funding.

The son of architects, Amit was born in Tel Aviv, Israel, in 1962. After completing military service, he enrolled to study industrial design at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem and graduated in 1989. He moved to San Francisco four years later to work at design firm Frog, later becoming vice president.

In 2000, Amit left to co-found his own business,


NewDealDesign. He wanted to create a smaller, inter-disciplinary company that followed his personal design philosophy, which he calls "the wisdom of the hand". Its early portfolio was eclectic: a rehabilitation device for athletes called Game Ready; MicroVision Nomad, a wearable similar to Google Glass; and the AVC Soul portable CD player. Its first big successes were the Palm Zire, which came out in 2002 and sold more than a million units, and the NetGear Platinum II modem.

In 2007, Amit was approached by Fitbit. The startup's founders, James Park and Eric Friedman, had, says Amit, "a circuit board and a vision". At the time, wearables were clunky pedometers with poor user interfaces. Fitbit wanted a focus on wellness, not fitness. "Some of the early wearables were a way to flaunt the ego," Amit says. "One of the biggest discoveries we made when we researched the market was that many users, specifically female ones, don't want to show their stats. They didn't want to be seen as douchebags who flaunt the fact that they walk a lot. That insight really helped the Fitbit in the early days."

The first Fitbit, the Wellness Tracker, clipped on to its owner's clothes. It measured steps, calories burned, distance and


Eric Church Reveals the 2019 Double Down Tour

Eric Church just announced his 2019 tour plans. The Double Down Tour will literally double down on the three-hour sets from the 2016-17 Holdin' on Tour.

That means two nights (Friday and Saturday) in each city he plays, 19 cities total. Church will perform unique shows both nights, for three hours each, he says. Tour dates can be found below.

"We take over your f---ing city," Church said during a Facebook Live video on Friday morning. The 2019 Double Down Tour is his first significant tour in 18 months, although he played select shows like Taste of Country Festival in 2018. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Oct. 5. Church's Church Choir fan club members can get them early.

Church's DesperateMan album drops on Oct. 5. The new studio album features the title track (a current Top 20 single) and several other songs that he's been releasing to fans in the weeks leading up to release. "Some of It," "Hangin' Around," "Heart Like a Wheel" and "Monsters" are four he's shared that can be previewed or listened to in full.

Tenth Sack Eludes Bennett, But He Gets Something Better

Mike Williams came up four yards short of his quest for his first 1,000-yard season as an NFL receiver on Sunday, but he nevertheless led the team with six catches for 65 yards and scored the touchdown that put the Buccaneers up for good. It was a satisfying day for him, even without that fourth digit being added to his receiving total, because his team beat the NFC’s top seed, Atlanta, on their own home turf and he had a lot to do with that.

Michael Bennett feels the same way. Bennett, the Buccaneers’ underrated left defensive end, came into the Buccaneers’ season finale needing one more sack to get to 10 on the season. That was his “double-digit” goal,President Trump Donald John TrumpFederal prosecutor speaks out, says Barr 'has brought shame' on Justice Dept.

Adding to the drama, the high-stakes visit will also take place as the House begins the first day of open hearings in its impeachment inquiry, creating a split-screen effect that will focus scrutiny on the Trump White House.

sanctions on Turkey for its incursion into northeastern Syria and calling for detailed reports on Erdoğan’s finances and that of his family.

Yet only two House Republicans signed a Democratic-led letter calling for Trump to rescind his invitation to Erdoğan, with other House GOP members registering their opposition by calling for banning the Turkish security officials implicated in assaulting protesters in 2017.

How Trump handles Turkey could further inflame accusations that the president makes foreign policy decisions guided by personal relationships and businesses interests.

The New York Times on Tuesday reported that Erdoğan’s son-in-law and minister of finance and treasury, Berat Albayrak, successfully convinced Trump to withhold imposing sanctions over the Russian missile purchases.

Administration officials have pushed back on suggestions that Trump is soft on sanctions when it comes to TurkeyOn November 11, 2017, the Runasimi Outreach Committee (ROC) and Quechua at New York University hosted the 3rd Annual Quechua Student Alliance Meeting, an all-day gathering sponsored by the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies at New York University, the Organizational Student Life Grant from the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at New York University, the K-12 Outreach Program at the Institute of Latin American Studies at Columbia University, and The Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies of the University of Illinois. The Meeting offered educators and future educators, students, advocates, program administrators, and other community members the opportunity to exchange their knowledge of Quechua language and culture with each other. Through various presentations and interactive discussions, the Meeting engaged its participants in Quechua language


and cultural activities while raising awareness of the growing Quechua communities across New York and the U.S. as well as the increasing importance of Quechua language and cultural education.

The event began with paying respect to Quechua culture and language through a traditional ceremony called Q’oa, led by Julia Garcia, a language partner for Global Languages Network and a middle school teacher. This cultural ceremony grounded everyone in gratitude and in the values of Quechua peoples.

Following the ceremony, presentations and interactive discussions took place, including:

– a roundtable discussion on Quechua language learning in a University context, presented by Quechua professor Américo Mendoza-Mori, from University of Pennsylvania as well as Quechua instructor, Carlos Molina-Vital, from the University of Illinois, Champagne Urbana. Américo Mendoza-Mori recently published an article on this verytopic titled “Quechua Language Programs in the United States: Cultural Hubs for Indigenous Cultures” in Chiricú Journal: Latina/o Literatures, Arts, and Cultures.

– a presentation on Quechua linguistics by PhD Student, Gladys Camacho, from the University of Texas, Austin

– a showcase on the community organization by the Quechua Collective of New York

– an interactive conversation on Quechua pedagogical strategies, involving games and activities, led by a New York University CLACS alum, Arleen Dawes

– a discussion and demonstration session of the New York-produced Quechua podcast, Rimasun, presented by Christine Mladic Janet, a PhD student from New York University

– a presentation on the digitization of Quechua, moderated by Diego Arellano, Undergraduate at the University of Ohio.

After supporting a local Ecuadorian restaurant Naño, who provided our lunch, all participants gathered to share


“Ima Rayku?”(“For what reason?”), in which they discussed with each other why they are interested in, study, or teach Quechua. This activity shed light on a variety of reasons why Quechua education is of growing importance in the U.S. during this time of globalization and increased international migration. Beginning the afternoon session, ROC presented a community organization award recognizing the work of Kichwa Hatari, a Bronx-based radio program that aires in Kichwa/Quechua for the greater New York community.

Later, New York University Quechua professor, Odi Gonzalez, discussed his book on oral Quechua history and memories, followed by Bruce Mannheim, a linguistic anthropologist from the University of Michigan, who gave the keynote address. The event culminated with a book fair which ranged from a trilingual (Quechua, Spanish, and English) Quechuachildren’s books to more scholarly publications, including a bilingual (Quechua, Spanish) oral history book and a monolingual (Quechua) linguistics book.

Ultimately, the Meeting successfully brought together Quechua language and culture advocates, students and educators, connecting New York with the Andes. In fact, the day after the event, Daniela Del Alamo Garcia, a teacher in Cusco, Peru at the Language Heritage Institute published an article on the Meeting in El Diario, Cusco.

Participants of this Meeting hailed primarily from New York, as well as New Jersey, Massachusetts, Ontario, Philadelphia, Rhode Island, Illinois, New Mexico and Texas. Participants ranged from elementary-aged students to elders. In addition to members of New York’s Quechua community as well as local Kichwa/Quechua community organizations, participants also consisted of Quechua students and professors from NYU, Columbia, Fordham

Woods Bagot has designed their new offices located in New York City, New York.

Woods Bagot studios are places to make, create and innovate, they are places designed around people and their projects – a space to workshop, collaborate, socialize and design. The New York studio has built on this global ethos and created a space that is both of the Woods Bagot culture and of its Manhattan location.

New York is a living example of the hypothesis that – innovation happens where there is the densest connection of ideas, knowledge, data and insight. The denser the network of connections, the stronger the innovation community. The studio was designed around this idea. The density of Manhattan, the activity, surprise and buzz of its streetscape was transcribed into the interior. Every

The materials library and the social areas are on display, right at the front door. Clients experience the social spaces, the library, the model shop and the VR lounge on their way to workshop spaces.

Hospitality and comfort are also paramount in the new studio design, with a large kitchen that encourages gathering and sharing as well as a diversity of settings for informal and relaxed encounters. Right at its heart is the coffee machine – the center of socialization and hospitality within the space.

Democratic and Ribble's leans Republican, both of the northern districts are competitive. If the GOP has anything to say about it, and it surely does, that will change.

Joel Gratz, a political strategist who worked for Senate Democrats in the redistricting process in 2001, says the GOP could help Duffy by moving some of the Democratic areas of his district into that of Democratic Rep. Ron Kind, in exchange for some of the more Republican areas of Kind's current district. Similarly, some of the more Democratic areas of Ribble's district could be moved into the solidly Republican district of neighboring Rep. Tom Petri.

WINTER HAVEN — A 27-year-old Winter Haven man is in custody after being arrested on charges that he tried to kill his brother.

Stedman Demar Hawthorne was arrested Wednesday by Polk County Sheriff's Office deputies, who responded to the home where the two brothers and other family members were located after the attempted shooting.

Deputies reported the disturbance started around 6:15 a.m., when Hawthorne began yelling about stolen money and repeatedly knocked on family members' bedroom doors. When his brother opened his bedroom door, Hawthorne allegedly rushed him and began punching him, accusing his brother of stealing his money.

When Hawthorne's sister came out of her room to split the two up,


he spit in her face and told his brother he was going to kill them both, according to reports.

A witness at the home said Hawthorne then went into a bedroom and returned with a revolver loaded with five rounds of ammunition, according to his arrest affidavit. The woman yelled, "He's got a gun," according to reports, then Hawthorne pointed the revolver at his brother and pulled the trigger.

The gun misfired, although the trigger was pulled three times, according to PCSO reports.

Hawthorne's brother ran downstairs to his parents' bedroom, followed by Hawthorne — who was still in possession of the revolver, according to authorities. Hawthorne's brother was able to knock the gun out of Hawthorne's hand and, assisted by his sister, pinned Hawthorne on the floor until deputies arrived,2014 Luminary Award

TEHRAN

IRANIAN Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Velayati Sunday called for all parties involved in the Middle East hostage drama to cooperate with United Nations Secretary General Javier Perez de Cuellar to bring the affair to an end.Tehran radio reported that Mr. Velayati made his remarks during talks with visiting Lebanese Foreign Minister Faris Bouez. "On the hostage problem we are the first victims ... and we hope that the efforts of the UN secretary general help a conclusive solution to the problem to be reached," Tehran radio quoted Velayati as saying. Mr. Perez de Cuellar left Iran Friday after intensive talks with Iranian officials on ways of solving the hostage crisis. The secretary general said after talks with Velayati that


he got good results from his efforts to arrange a deal for freedom of Middle East captives, including up to 10 Western hostages held in Lebanon. On Saturday, a pro-Iranian cleric in Lebanon said a British hostage would be freed within 48 hours. Earlier, the English-language Tehran Times newspaper, which correctly predicted past hostage releases, said it expected one or two Westerners to be freed soon. The newspaper, close to the Iranian Foreign Ministry, called on Israel to release more Arab captives to maintain goodwill. Pro-Iranian kidnappers say they will free the Westerners if Israel releases about 300 Arabs held by Israel and its client militia at Khiam prison camp in south Lebanon.with a close proximity of their hospital to a respective zonal hospital.

BMC is a faith-based, not-for-profit teaching hospital located in Mwanza city North-West of Tanzania with a bed capacity of 900, and MZRH is a public, zonal referral hospital run by the Ministry of Health of Tanzania, located in Mbeya city in the southern highlands of Tanzania with a bed capacity of 477. All of these hospitals have no formal EM departments; instead, they have OPDs which


are run by doctors with no formal EM training except for ALMC where they have been receiving foreign emergency physicians.

Participants

HCPs from each of four hospitals were eligible and selected at random by hospital administration. To ensure representation from each staff group, participants at each hospital were first clustered according to their job description (cadre) and then the total number of every cadre was divided by the total number of hospital staff to determine the percentage of staff represented by that cadre. The resulting percentage was multiplied by 25 to get the number of participants required for each cadre to participate in the study. Once these numbers were specified, the hospital administration was requested to randomly sample the cadre to obtain the proper number for the training. Foreign HCPsmeans when the housing is pulled upward with respect to the tip assembly. With the keys displaced, the housing can be driven further into the soil, thereby moving the housing relative to the movable tip assembly.
The second device releases a similar movable tip assembly by means of a lanyard lowered through an inner diameter of the cone rods, once the sampler has been pushed to a desired depth. The tip assembly includes hardened steel balls projecting radially outward into an inner radial groove within the housing. The lanyard engages and is secured to an upper portion of the tip assembly, which when displaced upward with respect to a lower portion of the tip assembly allows the steal balls to move radially inward out of the groove, thus releasing


the tip assembly. Further upward motion of the lanyard pulls the tip assembly, both upper and lower sections, through the outer housing until reaching the upper end of the sampler.
Upon reaching the upper end of the sampler, an appropriate device fixed to the housing disengages the lanyard from the tip assembly to facilitate the removal of the lanyard prior to the retrieval of the sampler. The present invention improves upon the second device heretofore described.
Other devices exist which have been improved upon by the development of the devices described above. Such devices include samplers which do not provide a sealing means between the tip assembly and the outer housing prior to tip release and samplers which do not provide sufficient sample volume or reliable means for retaining theplace when assembling the sampler between each sampling operation. The use of appropriate environmental field apparel, such as work gloves, impedes the installation of such individual keys and makes field assembly difficult. Further, the release method of pulling upward on the outer housing disallows a common procedure of repeatedly displacing the rods up and down a few inches to work the probe through thin hard layers of soil. This procedure, commonly called "cycling", causes the tip assembly of this type of soil sampler to prematurely release before reaching a desired depth.
In addition, samplers of this type do not reliably retrieve samples from weak saturated soil layers because the weight of the released tip assembly bears upon the soil to be sampled as the housing is advanced. This weight

The woman was attacked by three men outside her apartment at 6.30am on Saturday morning, local website Le Dauphiné reports. The woman was brought to hospital for treatment, and RTÉ says that she has since been released.

One of the men was armed with a chain, Le Dauphiné says. They hit the woman in the head before fleeing the scene. Avignon is a popular summer tourist destination, attracting thousands every year.

“She is in shock,” a police source told the Le Dauphiné.

MIT: With Loss Of Manufacturing The U.S. Innovation Engine Is No Longer Working By Richard A. McCormack, Editor

richard@manufacturingnews.com

The loss of so much manufacturing capacity from the United States over the past decade has had a negative impact on the country's ability to innovate, long considered to be the nation's greatest economic and sociological strength, according to a two-year study from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The United States no longer has the industrial "ecosystem" necessary to bring new ideas to market. Finance, equipment, suppliers and manufacturers are not available in the United States to make prototypes and scale up commercial production of innovative ideas and products. This holds true for high-tech start-ups, the best small- and medium-sized manufacturing companies, and U.S.-based multinational corporations. "Serious basic weaknesses in the


industry ecosystem are prevalent," according to MIT's Production in the Innovation Economy (PIE) study in a book published on Sept. 20 titled Making in America: From Innovation to Market. "In some companies we interviewed, these weaknesses took the form of managers' worrying about having to bring parts of production back in-house because they feared for the survival of their suppliers. The cost of substituting for missing suppliers would divert resources from the development of new lines of business." In looking at the country's fastest growing small- and medium-sized manufacturing companies, almost two dozen MIT professors and a total team of about 40 researchers found that "problems showed up in the length of development cycles, as the companies slowly dripped in resources out of their previous year's profits --Giuseppe Rossi is back on the pitch and scoring goals with Juventus legends on the pitch.

Crime and unemployment are down. The population and local economy are up. And for the first time in years, spirits are rising among community leaders in a northern Alberta city.

Data gathered by city officials, RCMP and Statistics Canada suggest that Grande Prairie is mending from the economic downturn of 2014 and 2015.

Grande Prairie's mayor, Bill Given, said the city is rebounding from hard economic times in 2015. (Zoe Todd/CBC)

"It's a pretty significant change from where we were in 2014 and 2015," Grande Prairie Mayor Bill Given told CBC News following a Jan. 15 city council meeting that was focused on annexing land for the growing city.

After nearly a decade as mayor, Given said he is familiar with the boom and bust cycles of an economy driven by oil,its 66,600 people.

The city uses a number of indicators to measure the strength of its economy, said economic development officer Rebecca Leigh.

For instance, she tracks the number of oversized vehicles that travel through Grande Prairie every year.

"These are important numbers for Grande Prairie because they represent service rigs, housing and major oilfield equipment heading out of town to work in the region," Leigh said.

In 2017, more than 12,100 drivers with over-dimensional vehicle permits passed through Grande Prairie — up by 53 per cent from 2016.

During the same period, the city's hotel occupancy rate increased from about 50 per cent to more than 75 per cent. In comparison, Alberta's average hotel occupancy hovered near 64 per cent for both 2016 and 2017.

Unemployment in the region fell by more than


half a per cent, by year average, from 2016 to 2017.

Statistics Canada doesn't track unemployment rates for Grande Prairie but Brian Glavin, the city's manager of economic development, said it usually sits one to three per cent below the regional average.

Police: 'The future is very bright'

The news is even better on the crime front. As the economy and population grow, the rate of police-reported crime in Grande Prairie is decreasing.

The city — named as the most dangerous city in Canada by Maclean's magazine less than two years ago — has dropped from first to 12th place on the Statistics Canada crime severity index.

"We are in a much better place," said Grande Prairie RCMP Supt. Donnan McKenna. "The future is very bright for Grande Prairie."

McKenna, who joined the city'sRCMP as the acting detachment commander in 2014, attributes the change to a proactive crime reduction strategy and the detachment's new drug unit.

"Crime was certainly surging," he recalled of his first year in Grande Prairie. "Members were getting burned out because they had so many files that they were carrying.

"The population had been growing, but the policing resources hadn't."

Grande Prairie RCMP Supt. Donnan McKenna talks about improvements to policing in the city. 1:14

Police presented a proposed solution — a crime reduction unit and a drug section — to Grande Prairie's mayor and city council, McKenna said.

"They fully supported the idea," McKenna said. "A lot of crimes flow from drugs because addicts will do the most outrageous things so that they can get more drugs."

“deep logic” was important to the composer, who strived for a concentrated and powerful expression, but also desired variation and innovation in terms of sound and texture in the process of creating this. Since its very first performance in Helsinki in 1919, Sibelius’ fifth symphony has counted among Sibelius’ most often performed works and constitutes a highlight of Nordic musical history.

Another composer who was concerned with symphonic unity and deep logic was Johannes Brahms (1833−1897). He therefore imbued his solo concertos with symphonic proportions, form types and weight, and not only mere virtuosity. With its four massive movements, his second piano concerto counts among the real heavyweights in the classical repertoire and is notorious among pianists. Although many call it a symphony with piano, the soloist is immediatelycast out into technical challenges, such as the cadenza, which starts only a few bars after the first movement. Behind the mighty facade, Brahms’ second piano concerto is varied in terms of both expression and character. Listen to the cello solo, for instance, which gently strokes you across the cheek in the third movement, and which Brahms later made into the song Immer leiser wird mein Schlummer (My slumber is growing ever softer) or the dancing Hungarian rhythms in the graceful final movement. The latter was particularly well-received when the work received its world premiere in Budapest in 1881, with Brahms himself as the soloist.

Short summary describing this issue.

Upset by the headlines of the recent "Daily Bugle", Spider-Man climbs towards J. Jonah Jameson's window just in time to see Jameson's temporary secretary quit...and to see Betty Brant return. Meanwhile, Dr. Octopus continues his crime spree in the hopes that Spider-Man will attack him once more so Octopus can prove his superiority over the web-slinger. However Spider-Man's alter identity of Peter Parker has been busy dealing with his Aunt May and his schoolwork.

Figuring that Spider-Man risked his life to save Betty Brant once before (in the last issue), Dr. Octopus snatches her away from the "Daily Bugle" building and takes her to Coney Island as his captive, telling Jameson to print a challenge to Spider-Man in the "Bugle" in the process. Sending Peter


to take pictures of the inevitable fight between Ock and Spidey, Jonah is convinced he should be at Coney Island as well. Weakened by a virus, Peter dons his Spider-Man garb and heads for the island, even as Betty tries to slip away from Ock unnoticed while he's preparing to fight the wall-crawler. As Jameson arrives at Coney Island with the police, Spider-Man battles the tentacled Doc Ock who easily overpowers the suffering Spidey. Unmasking Spider-Man, Dr. Octopus can't believe that lowly photographer Peter Parker is actually the real identity of Spidey. Neither Jameson nor Betty Brant believe it either, as they both think Peter foolishly tried to play hero. After a good night's rest, Peter feels like his old web-spinning self again. On the flip side, Doccreation of spectacular ``visuals,`` which may then be photographed and incorporated into a feature film.

This technique, somewhat older than electronic editing, has been identified mainly with Star Wars and its numerous science fiction sequels and imitations, but it need not be confined to this genre. For example, the fantastic vision of the starry firmament that accompanies the aria of the Queen on the Night in the film Amadeus is an example of computer art pressed into cinematic service. Various spectral happenings in the film Ghostbusters likewise emanated from a computer programmer`s perfervid brain.

However, video techniques are having their greatest immediate effect in the editing room. A growing number of film producers now transfer filmed footage to videotape before editing. Then, working with tape, they may stitch bits of


Given this kind of incentive, it is hardly surprising that electronic editing attracts producers of low-budget made-for-television films. Movies made to be shown in theaters may still employ conventional techniques because the electronic process involves a certain loss of picture quality that would be apparent on the theater screen while being unnoticeable -- or at least tolerable -- on television.

Even so, several motion picture producers -- notably Francis Coppola and George Lucas -- are experimenting with technically advanced forms of electronic editing that minimize these drawbacks. Robert Redford even goes a step further. At Sundance Institute, Redford`s film workshop in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah, special high-resolution video cameras and tape recorders, developed by the Sony Corp. for the Japanese state broadcasting service, are used in place offilm as the primary image-making method.

``By using video as if it were film,`` says Ian Calderon, associate artistic director of the institute, ``we get good-quality images that effectively express the mood and style of the material and provide filmmakers with the fastest way of learning.``

Filmmakers are evidently eager to learn. Sensing that the future of their trade -- both in television and for theatrical features -- will be increasingly geared to electronics, they are lining up for special workshops offered by the American Film Institute at its Center for Advanced Film Studies to acquaint film folk from executives down to lab technicians with the ins and outs of the new methods.

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 24 (UPI) -- Protests at the G20 economic summit turned violent at times Thursday with demonstrators throwing rocks and police firing rubber bullets, Pittsburgh police said.

Police used pepper spray and smoke canisters to break up a march in downtown Pittsburgh but some of the marchers beganbridge and unfurled a banner reading: "Danger. Climate Destruction Ahead. Reduce CO2 Emissions Now." Police said they also detained five people trying to hang a banner from the Fort Pitt Bridge.

Groups this week have protested Group of 20 economic policies, President Barack Obama's administration, a coal conference and other issues, the Tribune-Review reported.

To deal with an expected high number of demonstrators and protect security perimeters in Pittsburgh's downtown area, the city hired out-of-state officers and brought in several thousand state police troopers and Pennsylvania National Guard troops.


The Washington Redskins and New York Giants have both had exploratory talks regarding the services of free agent running back Tim Hightower, who last played for the Redskins during the 2012 preseason, two people with knowledge of the situation said.

It wasn’t immediately clear how serious the Redskins’ interest is, but the Giants held talks with Hightower earlier this month and were expected to meet with him again “in a couple weeks,” one person said. The second person said they weren’t sure how close either team was to signing Hightower, however.

The Redskins acquired Hightower via trade from the Arizona Cardinals in the summer of 2011, and he opened the season as their starting running back. But he tore his ACL in the fifth game of the season. In fivegames, Hightower had 84 carries for 321 yards and a touchdown. He also had 10 catches for 78 yards and a touchdown.

Hightower had surgery to repair the ligament and he attempted a comeback last preseason. He declined the option of opening training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list and, in the Redskins’ third preseason game, rushed for 28 yards on five carries — including an 18-yard run.

But Hightower’s knee swelled up after the game, and with his knee slow to recover at the time Washington had to make final roster cuts, he was released. Hightower said in an interview in January that he regretted the decision not to open the season on the PUP list.

At the time of his release, Redskins Coach Mike Shanahan said the

Curiosity

Since my April 27, 2018 update,across the Hematite Unit. As they note in their update:

Curiosity now has great, unobstructed views across the lowlands of Gale crater to the rear of the rover. The view is improving as the air becomes clearer heading into the colder seasons. The first image link below shows a Navcam view into the distance past a cliff face just to the left of the rover. The image is tilted due to the to the unusually high 15.5 degree tilt of the rover as it climbs the ridge. Part of Mount Sharp is in the background. The second link shows an image looking ahead, where we see much more rock and less soil. The foreground shows that some of the pebbles are relatively well rounded. The rock face up ahead


is smooth, which will mean easier driving.

Curiosity

Since my last update on July 12,, Curiosity spent most of the month waiting out the solar conjunction that placed the Sun between the Earth and Mars and blocked communications. In the past few days, however, the rover has begun to send down images again while resuming its journey up Mt. Sharp. The panorama above, reduced to show here, was taken by the rover’s left navigation camera, and shows the mountain, the ridge, and the route the rover will take to circle around the steepest sections to get up onto the ridge.

Wei Mingrui, the head of paleontology at the Beijing Museum of Natural History, poses for photo under one of the Chinese dinosaurs on display at the Miami Science Museum. Several of the dinosaurs are feathered and winged creatures whose discoveries helped firm hypotheses on the origin of birds.

MIAMI — The fossils of feathered dinosaurs whose discoveries helped firm hypotheses on the origin of birds will be exhibited publicly in the U.S. for the first time this weekend.

The roughly 120-million-year-old remains being displayed at the Miami Science Museum starting Saturday were all found in northeastern China beginning in 1998 and helped quiet — though not totally muffle — decades-old


debates on the link between dinosaurs and birds. Most have never been seen outside China.

"For 150 years, people argued over the origin of birds," said Matt Lamanna, a paleontologist at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh and an adviser to the "Dinosaurs of China" exhibit. "This debate was still raging in the middle of the 1990s and then somebody went to China and found these fossils."

Visually, the feathered dinosaurs on display are little comparison for their towering brethren. Those more traditional examples of dinosaurs, as the public has come to know them, fill the bulk of the exhibition space with their craning necks and their razor-sharp teeth.

The rarest of finds, and the ones expected to draw scientists from around the country, are in one relatively small room. They are set into chunks of rock, accompanied by life-size models — tiny when compared with the giant dinosaurs nearby — though Lamanna said their understated presentation had no correlation to their importance.

injuries, including widespread exposure to tear gas.

Use of tear gas in warfare is banned by the international Geneva Convention, and its use on civilian populations remains controversial. A number of governments have used it to suppress Arab Spring protests (see photos) in recent years, causing injuries and some deaths.

In August 2012, Physicians for Human Rights released a report about Bahrain's use of tear gas against protesters at that time, stating, "The Bahrain government's indiscriminate use of tear gas as a weapon has resulted in the maiming, blinding, and even killing of civilian protesters, and must stop at once while the government reassesses the use of such toxic chemical agents."

The report documented the case of a person in Bahrain who suffered shortness of breath, wheezing, and difficulty speaking fortwo weeks after exposure to tear gas. Several women reportedly miscarried as a result of exposure to the agent, and a man with asthma died of acute respiratory failure after inhaling it.

To better understand the dangers of tear gas, National Geographic reached out to Sven-Eric Jordt, a professor of pharmacology at Yale University School of Medicine. In the early 2000s, Jordt discovered that tear gas works on the body by activating pain receptors.

Jordt had been exposed to tear gas himself in the 1980s, when he was a student in Germany and attended a protest against nuclear waste.

Can you give us a brief history of tear gas?

Tear gases are not really gases; they are solids or liquids that get turned into aerosols. There are a number of chemicals used


Cambodia, Thailand join railroad networks, open cross-border bridge

Cambodian and Thailand yesterday reconnected their railroad networks after more than 40 years since they were separated, with both governments expecting it will improve transportation and boost trade.

The inauguration ceremony was presided over by both heads of state, Prime Minister Hun Sen and his Thai counterpart Prayut Chan-o-cha, who also attended the signing of an agreement on cross-border rail transportation.

The Stung Bot-Ban Nong Ian Friendship Bridge was also inaugurated, aiming to facilitate cargo transportation between the two countries.

“The agreement today on joint railway traffic, and the connection of our railroads again after they were separated in 1974 due to the war, will improve railroad transportation, which is an effective, cheap, and safe transportation method,” Prime Minister Hun Sen said at theand Thais, facilitating transportation within the Greater Mekong Subregion, from Bangkok to Phnom Penh and Ho Chi Minh City, for trade and tourism,” Mr Hun Sen said.

For his part, Thai Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha said the new bridge will boost cooperation in other sectors, including culture, education, and agriculture.

Mr Chan-o-cha said the bridge is a great achievement for the two countries and a gift the two governments offer to their people and to all people in Asean.

Cambodia now has two railways – the southern railway, linking Phnom Penh with Preah Sihanouk in the coast, and the northern one, connecting the capital to Poipet city.

BAYSIDE, NY — Former city comptroller John Liu defeated incumbent state Sen. Tony Avella in Thursday's Democratic primary for the 11th Senate District, scoring a political comeback. NY1 called the race for Liu at about 11 p.m., when he had 52.9 percent of the vote to Avella's 47.1 percent.

Liu was one of five challengers to oust former members of the Independent Democratic Conference, a now-disbanded group of breakaway Democrats who for years shared power with Senate Republicans. Liu ran unsuccessfully against Avella, first elected in 2010, in 2014 after he finished his tenure as comptroller in 2013. He also ran unsuccessfully for mayor that year.

Avella wasn't the only former IDC member to fall on Thursday. Former city councilman Robert Jackson beat state Sen. Marisol Alcantara in Manhattan; JessicaRamos defeated state Sen. Jose Peralta in Queens; Zellnor Myrie ousted state Sen. Jesse Hamilton in Brooklyn; and Alessandra Biaggi in the Bronx took down state Sen. Jeff Klein, the IDC's onetime leader. Liu will take on the district's Republican candidate in the Nov. 6 general election.

The anti-incumbent wave in state Senate races didn't move Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who easily defeated the actress and activist Cynthia Nixon in the gubernatorial primary. Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul narrowly beat over City Councilman Jumaane Williams in the lieutenant governor's race, while Public Advocate Letitia James easily won a four-way primary for attorney general.


provisions of the collective bargaining agreement between the union and the state, the arbitrator did not exceed his powers in reaching the merits of the dispute over the employee's discharge and accordingly reverse the decision of the district court vacating the arbitrator's award.
The employee, Euclid Berthiaume, was seasonally employed during the years 1970 to 1975 as a monthly laborer by the Department of Natural Resources at the division of forestry headquarters known as the Cloquet Station. Prior to his discharge, he was a member of the Minnesota State Employees Union, AFSCME, Council No. 6, AFLCIO (union) and of a "bargaining unit" for which the union was its exclusive representative. Typically, the employee was hired in April of each year and was terminated the following January, a period ofcontinuous monthly employment of approximately 9 months each year. Although his employment record shows a pattern of steady reemployment each year, it is undisputed that the employee did not acquire tenure rights as a classified civil service laborer since he never worked the required "ten months within a 12 month period."[1] His most recent period of employment began on April 21, 1975, and would have terminated in mid-January 1976 had he not been discharged on September 12, 1975, for allegedly stealing 10 gallons of gasoline from his employer's work station.[2]
At the time of the employee's discharge, the union was the exclusive representative of some 14,000 state employees who were members of various "bargaining units" and was a party to the first collective bargaining agreement with the state authorized
