simultaneously memorialize the many tours of the west undertaken by his father, the
Qianlong emperor, his
great-grandfather, the Kangxi
emperor, and his great great-grandfather, the Shunzhi emperor.

In recognition of Mañjuśrī’s blessings to the people and his importance to the Manchu
dynastic lineage and its Inner Asian constituents, three earlier Qing emperors journeyed to Wutai Shan from the capital (Shunzhi twice, Kangxi three times, and Qianlong six times) but none of them produced a “Magnificent
Record” of their western tours, nor, for that matter, of their eastern toursbut, more pointedly, by republishing in text and image the traces

father’s and great-grandfather’s earlier tours.6 What the book depicts is a very particular aspect of a complex mountain site
that was replete with famous monks, supernatural events, and extraordinary temples
and images subsidized by eminent patrons. It embeds the place and its long history of
marvels, devotional practice, scholarship, art, and architecture in a text that
focuses on repeated signs of Qing presence, blending the forms and descriptive style of Qianlong’s Magnificent Record of the Southern Tour and Imperially Commissioned Gazetteer of the
Clear and Cool Mountains. It also extends and redirects the concept of the
celebratory record of imperial favor from the south, where Qianlong had bestowed it, to the


west, where he had traveled
as many times but where he had chosen instead to act out other, often specifically
Buddhist, aspects of his multifaceted imperial persona. From the perspective of the
history of art, what the Magnificent
Record of the Western Tour tells us is that there was a set way to depict
a place (established in Qianlong’s
gazetteer), which intersected with a set way to depict a specific kind of event, in
this case, an imperial tour (the single earlier relevant example of which was
Qianlong’s Magnificent Record of the Southern Tour).

One drawback with known breathing masks is that the gas of exhalation is pressed between the intermediate wall and the inner face mask and out into the outer face mask. The fresh breathing gas present in the outer face mask then becomes contaminated with carbon dioxide from the exhaled gas. Thus, the dynamic outer dead space does not solely consist of the volume of gas present in the inner face mask, but also in the volume of gas present in the outer face mask.

Q:

According to Trinitarian theology of Calvinism, was the Word (2nd person of the Trinity) missing from heaven when He (the Word) incarnated on Earth?

What I mean with "missing from heaven" is something like this :
A. Only the first and the third persons of the Trinity were in heaven because the second person was on Earth.
Example:
Q : Where is the second person of the Trinity from 1 AD to 33 AD ?
A : On Earth in the flesh.
Therefore there is no second person of the Trinity in heaven.

Not "missing from heaven" is then something like this:
B. The first, second and third persons of the Trinity are still in heaven although the second person is at the same time on Earth.
Example:
Q : Where is the second person ofthe Trinity from 1 AD to 33 AD ?
A : On Earth in the flesh and in heaven just in spirit.

So, according to Trinitarian theology of Calvinism, was the Word (2nd person of the Trinity) missing from heaven when He (the Word) incarnated on Earth (John 1:14) or was He in heaven at the same time as He was on Earth?
Thank you.

A:

Ah, the extra calvinisticum as it was derisively called by the Lutheran Reformers. The Reformed position is that although the Word is fully united to the human nature it could not completely contained by it.
The Belgic Confession discusses the two natures:

We believe that by being thus conceived the person of the Son has been inseparably united and joined together with human nature, in such a way


EXCLUSIVE: NBC‘s Chicago Fire has been on a roll, steadily building from a slow start to hit several series highs in midseason, get its freshman order upped from 22 to 24 episodes and cement a second–season renewal. Now I hear the Dick Wolf-produced firefighter drama may also get a spinoff series. Details are sketchy, but I hear the proposed spinoff is also a Chicago-set procedural about another Public Safety division, the police. I hear the cop drama about the Chicago Police Department is being developed by Chicago Fire creators/executive producers Derek Haas and Michael Brandt, executive producer Matt Olmstead and executive producer Wolf, whose company Wolf Films produces Chicago Fire with Universal TV. Word is that the new show would start off as a planted spinoff with ChicagoFire‘s first season finale directed by Joe Chappelle. It is still being sorted out which Chicago Fire actors may transfer to the spinoff series. Chicago Fire‘s recurring cast includes Chicago PD Detective Antonio Dawson, played by Jon Seda.

While networks usually wait at least two seasons until they use a successful series to launch a spinoff, given the state of NBC, where Chicago Fire is one of few bright spots, the urgency is understandable. Especially when someone of Wolf’s experience spinning off procedural dramas is involved. Wolf is the creator of Law & Order, which successfully spawned two series — Law & Order: SVU and Law & Order: CI. Chicago Fire is also executive produced by Wolf Films’ Peter Jankowski and Danielle Gelber.

increase in poaching across the African continent has reduced elephant populations by 60%. In Tanzania and Mozambique alone, tens of thousands of elephants have been poached over the last six years.

The surge in poaching for ivory began nearly ten years ago and has been the worst Africa has experienced since the 1980s, said the IUCN.

Despite an international ivory trade ban in 1989 under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), Asian markets still represent a major hub for ivory trafficking.

Some researchers fear the recovery of particular species of elephants, such as Central Africa's forest elephants, may take several decades – if it ever happens.

Every five seconds, a child dies of starvation. There are around 854 million people who are hungry, right at this moment. Lack of food is without a doubt an epidemic, stretching across each and every continent, and affecting people of all races and backgrounds. However, there are many people that are completely untouched by hunger. Their problem might be something like disease, addiction, rejection, or discrimination. The list of troubles that humans may come across is never ending. Why, then, are some people able to escape their dire situations, while others simply become another sad statistic? In Angela's Ashes, by Frank McCourt, the answer is simple: perseverance.

Frank and his family are forced to endure countless struggles throughout the book. Their most obvious affliction


is hunger, but they come across many other problems as well. One example is rampant disease. Because of their hunger, the McCourt's are exposed to innumerable illnesses. Several of Frank's siblings get sick and pass away, which his parents never really recover from. Also, throughout Frank's childhood, he suffers from severe conjunctivitis. Teachers, bosses, and classmates never tire of teasing him about his irritated eyes, but he never really seems to mind. Although he is physically weak and frail, Frank has amazing mental and emotional strength.

This internal strength is imperative to his survival in Angela's Ashes, since he frequently faces ridicule and discrimination. People often reject or make fun of Frank because of how poor he is, what clothes he is wearing, and how his family has tothe door in your face again. Do you hear me?” (page 290).

Angela definitely has a spark of inner spirit and determination that she tries to pass down to her children. As she ages, that spark is shown less and less, but she encourages Frank and his siblings to learn from her mistakes and always keep up their resilience. She teaches them not to settle for a life of misery and hunger. Frank's perseverance is encouraged by his mother and fueled by an amazing amount of willpower that is difficult for most people to sustain. He approaches life with an impressive amount of tenacity which eventually allows him to follow his dream of moving to America and starting a better future.

Another thing that helps Frank to succeed is his


you just makes you stronger” definitely rings true. Throughout all of his struggles, a sense of resolve and an ability to succeed grow inside of him. Eventually, this mindset transforms his dreams into reality. “I stand on the deck with the Wireless Officer looking at the lights of America twinkling. He says, My God, that was a lovely night, Frank. Isn't this a great country altogether? / ‘Tis'” (page 362-363). Frank demonstrates incredible determination and strength of mind, and in the end it definitely pays off. His ultimate goal in Angela's Ashes is to move to America where he will be able to prosper. After living in the slums of Limerick for countless miserable years, Frank manages to attain this goal thanks to his undying perseverance.

In the timeit takes to read this essay, approximately 750 children die of starvation. As a young boy, Frank McCourt is on the brink of contributing to that statistic, but eventually his powerful survivor mentality allows him to escape his despondent, impoverished life. He exhibits amazing amounts of internal strength, both mentally and emotionally, despite his weak and diseased body. He fills his head with powerful daydreams and optimistic thoughts of a prosperous future. Through each and every struggle that he endures, Frank becomes increasingly determined. He approaches life with a certain tenacity that is simply bound to lift him up off the streets of Limerick and on to a better life.

Bemidji High School rescinded an academic award offered to a student with special needs, after they realized her special ed classes are graded differently. Now the school is awarding her anyway.

BEMIDJI, Minn. - Born prematurely, 15-year-old Anna Jensen of Bemidji has fought through challenges in life - Cerebral Palsy, and problems with vision. She's blind in one eye and has low vision in the other.

But her mom says she perseveres.

"She's on the bus at 6:20 every morning with a good attitude. And she carries on that good attitude all day," Lori Winger said.

So imagine Lori's pride when she received this letter in the mail from the Bemidji School District. It says, "Congratulations! You have been identified as an Academic Letter Achiever."

Citing Anna's grade point average, it invites her"What Went Wrong?" is a Rotoballer offseason series exploring fantasy players who underperformed their ADP. We'll explain why they fell below expectations and try to determine what it means for their value going forward.

Drafted in the top tier of running backs, with a preseason ADP of #3 overall, many fantasy owners expected Alvin Kamara to fight with Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey for the top fantasy finish in 2019. The third-year running back had finished as RB3 and RB4 in his previous two seasons and looked primed for even more production. Instead, Kamara's season remained jammed in first gear as he coasted to a respectable, but ultimately underwhelming, finish as the RB9 in PPR formats.

In the 14 weeks he played, Kamara finished as an RB1 seven times. Four


times he finished as an RB2, once as an RB3, and only two times did he drop below that threshold. Again, this was not a terrible season by any stretch. But it wasn't the league-winning production fantasy managers expected. So what went wrong?

The Simple Stats

New Orleans had 405 team rushing attempts in 2019, compared to 471 in 2018, and 444 in 2017.

New Orleans ran the ball 40% of the time in 2019, compared to 46.6% in 2018, and 44.4% in 2017.

Kamara had 171 rushing attempts in 2019, compared to 194 in 2018, and only 120in 2017.

Kamara averaged 55.9 rushing yards per game in 2019 (22nd among RBs), compared to 58.9 in 2018 (20th), and 45.5 in 2017 (27th).

Kamara once again put up 81 receptions in 2019, which is the exact number he had in 2018 and 2017.

Kamara's yards per reception decreased to 6.6 in 2019 (33rd among RBs), compared to 8.8 in 2018 (12th), and a whopping 10.2 in 2017 (3rd).

The fact that the Saints leaned more on the passing game this year theoretically should have favored Kamara, as he's been a dynamic receiving weapon. That's certainly where he made his hay as a rookie. We've never really relied on Kamara to notch those 100+ yard rushing games like Ezekiel Elliott or Nick Chubb. In fact, including the postseason, he's only had


two such games in his career.

That dip in his receiving yards is what's most discouraging. Could it be that defenses are simply figuring out how to stop Kamara from gashing them in the receiving game? Or is there something else at play?

The Injury Setback

Kamara missed Weeks 7 and 8 with a high ankle sprain, although he probably should have sat out Week 6 as well. The injury had already popped up at that point, but he elected to play through it against Jacksonville. In Week 10, his first game back from injury, Kamara only rushed the ball four times, the lowest number since his rookie season. Obviously, the coaching staff didn't believe he was fully healed.

That bore out in the way he broke tackles. Leading up to hisTDs in both 2017 and 2018, yet finished with a 5.19% and 6.23% touchdown rate, respectively.

In 2019, however, Kamara scored just 6 total touchdowns on 252 touches. (2.38%)

Even more perplexing, all six of those touchdowns were scored in just three games (Weeks 3, 16, and 17). Some regression was to be expected, but there wasn't a soul in the industry who was projecting such an extreme dip.

Red Zone Numbers

If there is touchdown regression to be had, you can practically guarantee there's some accompanying backsliding in the red zone. Sure enough, Kamara's red-zone attempts were nearly cut in half from his sophomore season, in which he had career-high TD numbers.

Here are Kamara's rushing attempts inside the 20-yard-line over the last three season, compared to that of his backfield mates:

2019


27 targets), and significantly less than Ingram had in 2017 (230 rushing attempts, 71 targets).

What's more, 32.8% of Murray's rushing attempts and 41.9% of his targets came in the two games Kamara missed. That's an absurd uptick. To put it plainly, Murray was not a significant factor in Kamara's production (or lack thereof).

Quarterback Change

In the five games Kamara played with Teddy Bridgewater taking the majority of snaps under center, he averaged 55 rushing yards on 15 attempts (3.67 YPA), 41 receiving yards on 6 targets (6.83 YPA), and picked up two total touchdowns.

Meanwhile, with Drew Brees at the helm the rest of the season, Kamara averaged 58 rushing yards on 11 attempts (5.27 YPA), 37 receiving yards on 7 targets (5.29 YPA), and scored his remaining four touchdowns.

It'sArab Terrorists’ Sentences Seen As Recognition of Danger of Attacks on Airlines

March 30, 1970

JERUSALEM (Mar. 29)

Heavy sentences imposed by an Athens court Thursday on two Arab guerrillas for their machine gun attack on an Israeli airliner at the Athens airport in 1968 were viewed here today as evidence that the world was recognizing the danger of such attacks on neutral territory and against civilians. Mahmoud Muhammed, 26, a teacher, and Maher Hussein Suleiman, 20, a student, were charged with willful manslaughter, illegal possession and use of weapons and explosives and obstructing air navigation. Leon Shirdan, an engineer, was killed and a stewardess wounded when the guerrillas attacked the El Al plane, ready for take-off. The teacher was sentenced to 17 years and five months in prison. The student


was given a term of 14 years and three months. They were found innocent of charges of willful manslaughter, which carries the death penalty as a maximum sentence.

The court ruled there were “extenuating circumstances” because of the “feelings of patriotism” of the defendants and said the two had acted under orders from their “superiors.” Evanghelos Misopoulos, the prosecutor, who had demanded conviction of the pair on willful manslaughter charges, said the attach had been ordered by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. The defendants declared they had been given orders to destroy the airliner but not to kill anyone on board. The court awarded $1,000 in damages to the widow of the slain engineer.

LEWISBURG, Pa. — The Bucknell University Environmental Center will hold a grand re-opening of the BUEC sustainable backyard on Friday, April 27, from 4 to 6 p.m.

The Arbor Day event, which is free and open to the public, will include a welcome message at 4 p.m. by Cathy Curran Myers, interim executive director of the BUEC.

Immediately after the welcome, students will give demonstrations and informal tours highlighting the many sustainable practices on the BUEC property. Divisions of native plants from the BUEC garden will be given away to attendees on a first-come, first-served basis.

In the back yard, attendees will find information about the native plant garden and the new pathway as well as tours of the solar array that

It says that these investments are paying off, with "exponential growth" in podcast hours streamed. It hinted at evidence that this content is driving paid subscriptions. That's even happening in established regions, like North America and Europe, where the market is a lot more saturated.

Spotify said that it saw gross profit rise to €474 million ($522.1 million) although it made a loss of €77 million ($84 million). Despite this, Spotify says that it will spend again on more podcast studios in 2020, citing it as an "investment year."

In partnership with 18th Street Arts Center: 18th Street Arts Center is an artists' residency program that provokes public dialogue through contemporary art-making.

Meet Cerveza Tupac, a delectable home-brewed beer crafted by the artist and arts professional Giuseppe de Bernardi. Hailing from Lima, Peru, de Bernardi has made his way to Southern California for a residency at 18th Street Arts Center in Santa Monica in the month of April. He heads a non-profit artist residency program called Tupac Cultural Association, which has supported contemporary artists in Peru since 2001. This dynamic arts center offers studio space, has an international visiting artist residency program, and hosts multi-disciplinary art events throughout the year.

through collective activity. The Danish artist group Superflex worked in collaboration with a farmers' cooperative in the Brazilian Amazon to produce a version of the popular South American soda-like beverage guaraná outside of the sphere of multinational corporations' controlling interests in the region. L.A.-born and Mexico-based artist Eduardo Sarabia started distilling his own tequila brand as an artwork after relocating to the state of Jalisco, Mexico, the heart of all tequila and mezcal production. And locally, the art collective Fallen Fruit has been working since 2004 to investigate the uses of urban space, mapping out the city based on its existing trees that produce fruit falling in public areas for potential consumption. Communal jam-making sessions, nighttime neighborhood fruit tours and the production of limited editions of spirits infusedcommunity, artists, and the contemporary cultural scene in Peru. In addition, it provides a direct strategy for supporting the region's arts programming and functions as a platform for cultivating an agenda of contemporary art. The beer's consumers are thereby positioned not only as collective stakeholders in the body politic of Peru's cultural capital, but also as participants within the ethos of postmodern theory. As such, the artistic and social agency of Cerveza Tupac recalls the interest in the aesthetics of everyday life as defined in both Relational Aesthetics and Situationism, yet plays with the anti-consumerist and revolutionary principles associated with the latter movement. The beer's logo itself (and that of the arts center) pays homage to Peru's famed indigenous rebel leader Túpac Amaru II and is reminiscent of


the iconic image of Marxist revolutionary and guerillero Che Guevara pervasive in popular culture.

Giuseppe De Bernardi , ' Cerveza Tupac: a social sculpture' (2008) at GalerÃa Municipal Pancho Fierro at the Lima Town Hall (Metropolitan Municipality of Lima).

The leftist ideologies within Peruvian socio-political history have also played a role in determining the current conditions in which de Bernardi has developed Cerveza Túpac's artistic posturing. Through the 1980s and early 1990s, the contemporary, cultural environment in Peru was held static under an oppressive atmosphere, contributed to in part by the presence of the Maoist guerrilla organization the Shining Path. For more than a decade, guerrilla warfare took place in rural areas of the country, and at times, escalated into attacks in Lima resulting in violence against civilians. As thegroup's activities declined in the two decades following the capture of its leader Abimael Gúzman in 1992, the cultural environment at large has opened up and the Peruvian art scene, centered almost exclusively in Lima, is finding a renewed sense of momentum.

Giuseppe De Bernardi , ' Cerveza Tupac: tactical social economy' (2011) at Revolver Gallery, Lima.

While the generation of current mid-career and mature artists was subject to the constraints of the former period, younger artists are operating from a more open slate. New contemporary art galleries, such as Galería Revolver, are making their way to international art fairs. Mexican artist Yoshua Okon, who received his MFA from UCLA and was based in Los Angeles for many years, is an artist in their stable, along with Peruvian artists Ishmael


Randall Weeks, Jose Carlos Martinat and Gilda Mantilla (who coincidentally was born in LA and was one of the artists representing Peru at the 50th Venice Biennial), and Argentine Matias Duville. In recent years, Lima has hosted a biennial public art exhibition called Centro Abierto that transforms downtown Lima through temporary public interventions and sculptures. Open to artists based in Latin America, the initiative has commissioned recognized and emerging contemporary artists from throughout the region to present transitory works in the spirit of the Münster Sculpture Project.

De Bernardi's Cerveza Tupac finds common ground in Los Angeles, where many artists are invested in the goals of Social Practice and are also finding ways to enact micro-economic development projects. With increasing frequency, L.A. artists are developing self-funding initiatives using newplatforms of social media. Kickstarter, for example, is a progressively popular way to raise the relatively small, but critical funds needed for production costs. Projects that may very well be part of programming at an arts institution utilize these crowd funding strategies as an option in the face of limited organizational budgets. By inviting friends, family, and the arts community to invest in the realization of their work, artists are creating collective interest in their artistic ideas and goals.

Giuseppe De Bernardi , ' Cerveza Tupac: tactical social economy' (2011) at Revolver Gallery, Lima.

Despite the fact that in Los Angeles the name Tupac might immediately conjure up an association with famed rapper Tupac Shakur, it is the Peruvian hero for which the California Love performer was named that is


the emblem behind de Barnardi's brew. Túpac Amaru II, indigenous leader in colonial-era Peru, has historically been an important symbol for the struggle for independence and the rights of the proletariat. De Bernardi's aim is to address the needs of the artists and the creative community in Lima and to strategize a means of self-support for their endeavors. In the spirit of revolutionary leader Túpac Amaru II, de Bernardi and his collaborators seek for artists the most important freedom of all: independence.

On October 28, 1983, the defendants filed a motion for reconsideration of this order pointing out, among other things, that there was a genuine issue of material fact as to whether there was any negligence.  By order dated December 15, 1983, the district court denied the defendants' motion for reconsideration.  On February 8, 1984, the defendants filed a notice of appeal from the latter order.  On February 27, 1984, realizing that the order in question was interlocutory and not appealable, the defendants moved to dismiss the appeal, and it was accordingly dismissed on March 8, 1984.


 In the interim, the district judge previously handling the case resigned his office, and the case was accordingly assigned to another district judge.  On April 24, 1984, the defendants moved the district court, purportedly pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b), to vacate its orders of October 18, 1983, and December 15, 1983, asserting that those orders had been based on the district court's misconception that the defendants had admitted liability.  On July 27, 1984, the district judge to whom the case had been reassigned granted the defendants' motion to vacate the October 18, and December 15, 1983, orders, stating that "[t]his Court believes that a summary judgment on liability in a tort case should be granted in only rare situations.

GNA

Akyawkrom (Ash), June 13, GNA - Mr Collins Dauda, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Ranking Member of the Parliamentary Select Committee on Lands, Forestry and Mines, has described the imposition of three per cent export levy on timber by the Forestry Commission (FC) as illegal. He has therefore, called on the Timber Industry Development Board, a division of the Commission that has been deducting the levy to stop.

Mr Dauda, who was speaking to newsmen on the sidelines during a joint seminar of the Select Committee and the FC at the Wood Industries Training Centre (WITC) at Akyawkrom in the Ejisu-Juaben District, stated that the levy was a tax and should have been approved by Parliament.

Due in early 2015, the album features Boy George, Toots & the Maytals, Kool A.D., Sly & Robbie, and more.

Billboard is excited to announce a hyper-collaborative new project featuring more than 80 collaborations from over four continents.

Mad Decent's Toy Selectah has combined forces with Camilo Lara (DJ Mexican Institute of Sound) to create Compass, a new album the duo spent last year recording in secret while jet-setting around the globe.

“This album is like our PhD thesis on global music production,” Toy Selectah says. Indeed, the pair was yearning for a challenge, and in Compass, consider that mission accomplished. Selectah and Mexican Institute of Sound wanted to collaborate with artists they admired outside of the DJ realm, so they sought out collaborators representing electronic, reggae, hip-hop, indie, punk, andmore.

"This project has been a mystical quest trying to prove that there is only one dance floor across the globe,” Lara says.

Compass is due in early 2015. To get a taste of the magic in store, check out the trailer below:

There’s more video on the way -- Red Bull Media House produced a five-episode web series chronicling the album’s creation, which fans can expect around Compass’ release.

Toy and Camilo recorded the album at Red Bull Studios locations in New York, Los Angeles, London, and São Paulo, in addition to recording stops in Kingston (Jamaica), Tokyo, Beijing, New Delhi, and Mexico’s Monterrey and Mexico City.

Over the course of his career, Lara released four albums as the founder of Mexican Institute of Sound, curated a radio station for Grand Theft


The new course gets under way with 1,535 more students than last year, with a rise in all age groups, particularly the first year of infant’s schools and the first year of secondary school. A total of 179,221 students are enrolled at publicly-run schools in Barcelona. The increase in demand means ten new centres opening: six schools, three centres offering primary and secondary education, and a high school.

The number of non-teaching staff remains practically the same as last year. In contrast, there will be 560 more teachers, bringing the total to 9,001. In total, the number of teaching and non-teaching staff tops 10,000 people.

An immigrant's premature baby was being detained at a Border Patrol facility in McAllen, Texas.

The 17-year-old mother, who was in extreme pain this week at the facility, needed to be carried when she crossed the border through the Rio Grande River June 4.

The teenage girl with pigtail braids was hunched over in a wheelchair and holding a bunched sweatshirt when an immigrant advocate met her at a crowded Border Patrol facility in Texas.

She opened the sweatshirt and the advocate gasped. It was a tiny baby, born premature, being held in detention instead of where she believes she should have been – a hospital neonatal unit.

“You look at this baby and there is no question that this baby should be in a tube with


a heart monitor,” said Hope Frye, a volunteer with an immigrant advocacy group who travels the country visiting immigration facilities with children to make sure they comply with federal guidelines.

Frye and other advocates say the case highlights the poor conditions immigrants are held in after crossing the border at a time when the government is dealing with an unprecedented number of families and children who are arriving each day.

Sneak peak:Trump waved an alleged 'secret' Mexico deal around. A photographer got a picture of it.

She says the mother, a 17-year-old from Guatemala, had an emergency cesarean section in Mexico in early May and crossed the border with the baby June 4. She was in a wheelchair in extreme pain when legal advocates found her this week.

The girl told advocatesshe had crossed the border through the Rio Grande River but needed people to carry her, and also needed assistance getting into a Border Patrol car when she was apprehended.

The mother and daughter were expected to be transferred to a privately run facility for underage immigrants without parents on Thursday after outcry on social media.

They were held in an overcrowded McAllen processing facility that holds hundreds of parents and children in large, fenced-in areas and gained international attention last year when it detained children separated from their parents. Advocates describe them as cages and say they are extremely cold. The converted warehouse is the same location where a flu outbreak caused authorities to shut down the facility last month.

The Trump administration has been facing daily criticism over conditions


and Alex Azar, who heads the Health and Human Services Department, pleaded for emergency supplemental funding.

“We continue to experience a humanitarian and security crisis at the southern border of the United States, and the situation becomes more dire each day,” they wrote.

Customs and Border Protection says its agents are overwhelmed and don’t have the funding or resources to handle the influx.

Health and Human Services, the governmental agency in charge of caring for unaccompanied children after they’re released from Border Patrol custody, says it is past capacity with over 13,000 kids in its care at the moment. The agency said it plans to add new facilities for children in New Mexico, Texas and a military base in Oklahoma.

Clash of the Tartans

Golf: IT was a beautiful 'Scottish day' on Saturday and 62 players turned out for the "Clash of the Tartans"

IT was a beautiful 'Scottish day' on Saturday and 62 players turned out for the "Clash of the Tartans" at Wingham Golf Club.

A good turnout of players played nine holes on Friday and a number also played Saturday in the 18 hole competition. Of those the winner was club captain Neville McBlanch with a combined total for the 27 holes of 57 points. Recently crowned club champion, Reid McBrown, also with 57, was an unlucky second, beaten on a countback. Of the women Cheryl McAndrews was the best with 36 points.

Onto the daily competition, and the winner 'by a mile' with daylight second, was Peter Griffinwith a massive 47 points. Peter won by seven shots from second placed Jim Weeks on 40 points. Darren Lewis, making a comeback to golf, was third on 39, John Broadbent fourth with 38 and Terry Thompson was fifth. The "Clash of the Tartans" was won by Ashley Armstrong with 38, Gary Morley, also had 38 and Grant Gutterson had 36 points.

The Drummond Challenge prize went to John Broadbent with 38 points, again on a countback. In the ball competition, Jim Bradshaw was the final recipient with 34 on a countback. In the Friday Scottish Festival nine hole event, Craig Harrison took the day off and was rewarded with a win with 21 points. Alan Thompson played well to get second spot with 20 points, just beating Darren


Lewis on a countback. In the "Clash of the Tartans" nine holer, Rod Brown won with 19 points, beating his son Reid and Matt Brislane on a countback.

Back to the Saturday competition and the nearest to the pins were again of a very high standard with the best and winner of the Caddies Restaurant "shot of the day" was Darren Lewis with his second shot to the 9th/18th Bent on Food hole. Others to do well were Wayne "Wally" Lewis on the Wingham Plaza Butchers 1st/10th, Steve "Harmy" Allwood the 3rd/12th, Ashley Armstrong the 4th/13th All About Conveyancing hole and Jim Weeks on the 7th/16th Bayview Seafoods hole.

Wednesday veterans

FIFTY one veterans played a single stableford this week for the Courtney Adamson trophy. Robert Allan was the star performer,his 39 points just too good for runner-up Richard Lucas on 38, who in turn beat sponsor Courtney Adamson on a countback. Richard Lucas also had a win in the NTP winning the 7th/16th with a great shot.

Bruce Armstrong did likewise on the 3rd/12th with an even better shot.

OBE this week was Rex White with a modest 30 points. I assume you played the full 18 holes Rex.

Thursday LJ Hooker chook run

THURSDAY was one of the best days weather wise you could possibly ask for, with the sun shining beautifully throughout the day. The scores however did not shine as much with a mere 21 points needed to win the day. David Blair was the winner, 21 points after corrections (I was his marker), Rex White second with


20 and Syd Gilfillan third on a countback. Rex White also won the NTP on the 7th with a good shot and Craig Harrison did likewise on the 3rd hole. The winner of the May LJ Hooker umbrella was Terry Wood, his total of 94 points one shot ahead of Rod Brown with 93.

Friday women

THE Friday women played their own version of the "Clash of the Tartans" with joint winners this week.

They were Pat McMarcus and Janice McSurtees, who could not be separated. Jill Hampton was next followed by Robyn Dudgeon, Jan Baker, Judy Periera and Cheryl Andrews. Jan McSurtees also won the NTP, and Shani Darby and Gloria Burden were the best long markers.

He was 51.

The cause was complications after emergency surgery for a brain hemorrhage, said Sean P. Quirk, a longtime friend.

A region in southern Siberia just north of Mongolia, Tuva was an independent country from 1921 until 1944, when it was annexed by the Soviet Union. The region, which has a population of about 300,000, is now part of the Russian Federation.

Small, round and beatific, Mr. Ondar was a superstar in Tuva — “like John


and to beaches, and the lifestyle made possible by long shifts followed by five days off in a row.

"It's been a good cow," says 55-year-old fitter and turner Tom Whitelaw, working on a crossword puzzle in a brew [break] room.

He's been at Hazelwood since he was a 20-year-old. He left, and then returned.

"It's allowed me to stay at home with the kids rather than travelling for work."

Of the closure he says: "It's inconvenient. Life will go on."

Morale has been up and down. The mood swings from morose to philosophical with a solid dose of gallows humour.

The death of Hazelwood means one thing to an older guy nearing retirement and another to a young bloke raising a family. But all recognise the threat to the region with the lossof an industry.

Some fear they'll have to uproot from the Latrobe Valley in search of a new job — possibly a whole new line of work.

Of the 450-strong Engie workforce, 135 will stay on for the first year of the decommissioning, along with 100–130 contractors.

The extra time, if it stretches to two or three years, might be enough to see some workers to retirement. For others, it's a temporary reprieve — they'll be in the same boat as everyone else soon enough.

Danny Boothman started down the mine as a boiler operator but now spends his days in an air-conditioned control room inside the power plant.

At 54, he's planning to do a sound engineering course at RMIT. "It's an excuse to make a change," he says.

The singer-songwriter has channelled


29 years of 12 hour shifts into a moving goodbye simply called The Hazelwood Song.

In the film clip he stands in the power station carpark in fluorescent work garb, out of focus and strumming his guitar.

"…Let's all have a drink to Hazelwood, lift your glasses high. Let's all have a drink to Hazelwood, it's sad to watch the old girl die…"

Within the giant hall that houses the eight turbines and measures a cavernous 400 metres from end to end, the heat can be intense. When temperatures are in the thirties outside it can hit 60-plus degrees inside.

Navigating the levels can feel like entering a game of Donkey Kong. Up this ladder, down these steps, step in this lift, duck your head here.

It's no place for a fear ofof coal each 24 hours. In full production, the mine digs 18 million tonnes a year to feed the plant, producing a quarter of Victoria's energy requirements.

On the mine floor, the dredger looks ancient and ferocious at once — like something out of Mad Max.

Rigged together with steel cables, the behemoth, deemed a "she" by the miners, dwarfs the human form as it chomps its way relentlessly through the 100-metre thick seam of solid coal, just as it has for more than 50 years.

"This resource, there's nothing cheaper in the world," says mine production manager Rob Dugan, who spouts Hazelwood facts and figures with impressive aplomb. It's not unlike the way a mother can chart the ins and outs of her child's life trajectory by heart.

The Hazelwood mine


until 2025 at full noise had been the vision for Hazelwood. In Germany, says Dugan, who went there to see for himself, they plan their shutdowns 10 to 20 years out. And then they give the land back to the community as a recreational resource.

There, Dugan saw an ex-mine site with wineries and caravan parks built on the slopes. He envisions down the track a Lake Hazelwood. It'll hold 1.2 times as much water as Sydney Harbour.

But it wasn't supposed to happen like this. It feels heartless after all the years poured in.

Like many of his colleagues, 53-year-old Mark Peruzzi is farewelling his workplace of three decades — a loyalty almost unheard of in today's job market.

"We thought it was going to be a phased shutdown. If yougot told it was going to shut down by 2020, that would have softened the blow.

"I think they're making a big mistake. I think politicians have too much say over people's lives."

In the turbine hall, a lone pair of workers are already beginning to take Hazelwood apart, bolt by bolt, salvaging materials. Forensic, yet immutably sad.

Another member of the decommissioning crew traces a torch beam across a wall, following a pipe to its source in preparation for the great dismantling.

At least it's her loved ones who'll put the old girl down.

"Bong on Aussie bong on," reads graffiti in one nook, reminiscent of something you might see etched on the back of a school bus shelter. A hint of the culture that comes with an almost all-male workplace?

Hazelwood management


says it's "[slang] from a bygone era" as drug and alcohol testing has been in place for years.

There are 30 female Engie employees but no women in operational roles in the mine, and only two in the power station: one a shift manager and the other an assistant unit controller.

"Who says I never lift a finger?" reads a worker's mug, adorned with an image of a cheery four-fingered salute as it's filled with coffee for one of the last times.

Irreverence is everywhere. And why not, at this point?

Coal dust coats the floor, collecting the imprints of so many boots.

An errant puff of steam escapes from a rusted grate in the floor, diffuses into nothingness.

In the cockpit of a dredger, one hand nudges faithfully around a clock face coveredbe or

In 1847 I was in Wisconsin, and for the satisfaction of others I was

several other families with a view of forming a co-operative colony,
so that excepting myself the rest had their residences closely
together, whilst mine was half a mile from the rest. The subject at
one time was brought up for discussion, and an earnest desire on the
part of many to see something of it resulted in my finding a subject
to experiment with at once, and fortunately he proved to be an
extraordinary one. The finding of property through him in a mesmeric
condition was a thing of common occurrence, and in some instances he
seemed to be conscious of the mental conditions under which the
property was lost.

image copyright SOlum image caption The developers said they expect the scheme to be completed by September 2016

Work on a £35m scheme to redevelop a railway station in West Sussex has begun after it was delayed for a year.

The redevelopment of Haywards Heath station includes a new forecourt with shops and a new car park for 1,050 vehicles.

A Waitrose supermarket will be built to the east of the station.

The developers said the delay was due to additional plans for more car park spaces and a bridge linking it to the station's platforms.

The scheme will be completed in September 2016.

I witnessed this first hand with my kids. They absolutely loved him and were always excited to spend time with him. They, along with the rest of us, will figure out some way to carry on without him but it will take time and some days will be better than others.

In all of the sadness, what gives me joy is knowing that I was blessed to be part of his life for theIt's also a minor miracle, given that this year's orgy of trophy dispensing was a virtual repeat of last year's, with AMC's "Mad Men" winning best drama series, NBC's "30 Rock" taking the nod for best comedy, "30 Rock's" Alec Baldwin once again named best sitcom actor, AMC's "Breaking Bad" star Bryan Cranston a repeater for best drama actor, and FX's "Damages" star Glenn Close once again taking the trophy for best drama actress.

The only relief from the monotony of repetitiveness came when Toni Collette copped the Emmy for best comedy actress for her starring role in Showtime's comedy "United States of Tara" - and then proceeded to give the night's most boring acceptance speech. ("United States of Tara," BTW, is about the lighter side of Dissociative Identity


Disorder - anyway that's Showtime's pitch and they're sticking to it with a "One woman. Multiple personalities" show tagline.

This change was actually a step back for the broadcast because the woman who usually wins that competition - "30 Rock's" Tina Fey - usually gives one of the trophy show's best, and most anticipated, acceptance speeches each year.

Anyway, this year's audience increase it also an accomplishment for the show, given that it aired opposite behind NBC's coverage of the New York Giants at the Dallas Cowboys game (at the new Cowboys Stadium), HBO's kickoff of its much anticipated all-about-"Seinfeld" season of "Curb Your Enthusiasm," an original episode of AMC's "Mad Men," blah, blah, blah.

CBS proudly noted this year's audience is the biggest for the Emmys since 2006 when --notably -- the Emmy show did NOT air against a football game.

However, the trophy show enjoyed its biggest audience in its first half hour, when host Neil Patrick Harris performed his opening number. Harris's hosting gig was expected to be one of the shows highlights; he'd gotten great reviews for hosting the most recent Tony Awards, also on CBS, earlier this year. He also got raves Sunday during the Emmycast from the likes of "The Daily Show" anchor Jon Stewart and "Survivor" host Jeff Probst.

And, because the Emmycast aired this year on CBS, which does particularly well in fly-over country, the 13.3 million average audience is expected to go up more than usual when final numbers finally arrive from Nielsen -- on Tuesday.

For the subject of today's post, the wheel-spin brought up the parasitic wasp Brachymeria perflavipes. This is a species of the family Chalcididae described by our old friend Alexander Arsene Girault in 1913 from a female specimen collected in the Dandenong Mountains in Victoria, Australia. He described it under the name of Tumidicoxa flavipes; when that genus was later synonymised by Girault in 1915, the species name was replaced by perflavipes as there was already a Brachymeria flavipes. Girault's description of this species was, thankfully, more detailed than some of his later productions, though the species was not illustrated (not an uncommon state of affairs at the time) and, to the best of my

as to mention that the University of North Carolina, the Microsoft of college basketball, remains enmeshed in a scandal of spectacular proportions. Put simply, for two decades until 2013, the university provided fake classes for many hundreds of student athletes, most of them basketball and football players.

Coach Williams’s longtime man Friday, Wayne Walden, a former academic counselor, played switchman, steering basketball players to these classes. A touch of plagiarism, a no-show, were O.K. if it gave the young man more time to work on his drop step. There was one goal: Keep those grade-point averages at the minimum needed to compete for the university.

The N.C.A.A. gumshoes have recently awakened from their slumber and, in December, filed a tough set of accusations against the university, the latest in anBoard of Governors wrote in an email that he had repeatedly asked administrators to purge people who were involved in “fake classes.”

“Their inability to answer this basic question undermines their credibility,” he wrote.

It’s important to stop here and bow in the direction of one newspaper, The News & Observer in Raleigh, N.C., and its reporter on the story, Dan Kane, who took to the scent like the finest of bloodhounds. He exposed nearly every corruption, including the emails mentioned here.

University officials reacted in time-honored fashion: They heaped abuse on the reporter and the paper, accusing them of vox populi scandal-mongering. Nor did the university appreciate faculty members who had the temerity to ask why a top academic institution tolerated decades of terrible education for its athletes.

A historian, Jay


Reginald Hildebrand, who is black and is a retired professor of history who taught in the department of African and Afro-American studies, wrote a searching essay. He pointed to evidence that, made-up classes aside, it was an otherwise rigorous department.

He wrote of the fundamental conflict between the educational mission of a great university and “running a successful professional minor league franchise” such as Tar Heels basketball. A good coach, he noted, for a revenue-producing sport is paid more than some entire departments. When athletics sets the priorities, one cannot help but corrode the other.

Then there’s the question of athletes who arrive at this elite university with often ragged academics.

“Everybody believes in affirmative action when it comes to the admission of athletes,” Hildebrand wrote.

China has openly reported on most of the preliminary stages that lead up to a launch. But suddenly, they have gone very silent. There has been a curious absence of reportage on the Shenzhou 10 mission in China's state-run media in recent days.

We should have received a few updates on progress with the launch preparations or some soft "background" stories on the space program. China is notoriously stingy with media coverage of its space missions, and we did not expect a torrent of

WHAT CHANGE HAVE YOU SEEN DURING YOUR TIME IN THE INDUSTRY?

When asked what had changed in the industry during their time in it, Chloe Deneuve stated that there are already more female role models who she can look up to, and through the Helen North Achieve Programme run by AWUK, she has met with many women who can inspire her. Georgina Hurcombe noted


that in the early days of her career, the industry was heavily weighted towards men, but over time, Sarah has been able to champion more and more women in the business and can easily claim gender parity on the shows she produces now, such as THE AMAZING WORLD OF GUMBALL.

Rebecca Hobbs embarked on a successful screenwriting career via a law degree and a short stint in acting. Her most recent credit is as Head Writer on SADIE SPARKS, a co-production between Brown Bag Films, Cybergroup Studios and Disney EMEA. Rebecca spoke a lot about taking risks and about how fear was sometimes a good motivator! She was also asked about mentors and she was keen to stress importance of finding someone to trust – sometimes we all needmy Disney hat, I was firmly wearing my AWUK one, which meant I spent the whole week in meetings. Now I’m frantically catching up on a few short films since returning, thanks to the video library!

I was very pleased to be invited to speak about my career in animation and education at the ‘Inspiring Females STEM’ conference at the John Innes Centre, Norwich. The programme, designed by the students and staff at Norwich High School for Girls, was created to encourage more young women to pursue careers in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) – all areas that have a significantly low female workforce. The impressive line-up of speakers for the day included women at the top of their professions; Directors, Professors, and Doctors.

Al cabo de los años, cuando Roger Casement recordaba esas semanas febriles de fines de 1903 y las primeras de 1904, se diría que lo más importante, para él, no había sido la popularidad que alcanzó aun antes de que el Gobierno de Su Majestad publicara su Informe, y muchísimo más después, cuando los agentes al servicio de Leopoldo II comenzaron a atacarlo en la prensa como un enemigo y calumniador de Bélgica, sino, gracias a Morel, a la Asociación

—Creo que es mejor no saber de qué me acusan. Alice Stopford Green piensa que es una operación montada por el Gobierno para contrarrestar la simpatía que hay en muchos sectores en favor del pedido de clemencia.

—Nada se puede excluir en el mundo de la política —dijo el religioso—. No es la más limpia de las actividades humanas.

Tocaron unos discretos golpecitos a la puerta, ésta se abrió y apareció la cara abultada del sheriff:

—Cinco minutos más, padre Carey.

—El director de la prisión me concedió media hora. ¿No se lo ha dicho?

El sheriff puso cara de sorpresa.

—Si usted lo dice, le creo —se excusó—. Disculpe porsu despacho y le dijo: «El escándalo sobre los crímenes del Putumayo ha alcanzado unos límites intolerables. La opinión pública exige que el Gobierno haga algo. Nadie como usted para viajar allá. Irá también una comisión investigadora, de gente independiente que la propia Peruvian Amazon Company ha decidido enviar. Pero yo quiero que usted, aunque viaje con ellos, prepare un informe personal para el Gobierno. Usted tiene gran prestigio por lo que hizo en el Congo. Es un especialista en atrocidades. No puede negarse». Su primera reacción había sido buscar una excusa y rehusar. Luego, reflexionando, se dijo que, precisamente por su labor en el Congo, tenía la obligación moral de aceptar. ¿Había hecho bien? El escepticismo de Mr. Stirs le parecía un mal presagio. De tanto en


se lanzó sobre ella con el machete que arrebató a uno de sus «muchachos» y la decapitó. Blandiendo la cabeza de la mujer, que lo iba bañando en sangre, explicó a los indios que eso les ocurriría a todos si no cumplían con su trabajo e imitaban a la vieja. El decapitador era un hombre campechano y risueño, hablador y desenvuelto, que trató de hacerse simpático a Roger y sus colegas contándoles chistes y anécdotas de los personajes extravagantes y pintorescos que había conocido en el Putumayo.

Cuando, el miércoles 16 de noviembre de 1910, subió al Liberal en el embarcadero de La Chorrera para emprender el regreso a Iquitos, Roger Casement abrió la boca y respiró hondo. Tenía una extraordinaria sensación de alivio. Le pareció que aquella partidaescribió en su diario: «Baños públicos. Stanley Weeks: atleta, joven, 27 años. Enorme, durísimo, 9 pulgadas por lo menos. Besos, mordiscos, penetración con grito. Dos pounds».

Roger, Omarino y Arédomi partieron de Barbados rumbo a Pará el 5 de septiembre, en el Boniface, un barco incómodo, pequeño y atestado, que olía mal y cuya comida era pésima. Pero Roger disfrutó de la travesía hasta Pará gracias al doctor Herbert Spencer Dickey, un médico norteamericano. Había trabajado para la Compañía de Arana en El Encanto y, además de corroborar los horrores que Casement ya conocía, le contó muchas anécdotas, algunas feroces y otras cómicas, sobre sus experiencias en el Putumayo. Resultó ser un hombre de espíritu aventurero, que había viajado por medio mundo, sensible y de buenas lecturas. Era agradable


cuya punta se mojaba en la boca de tanto en tanto, escuchó el informe de Roger sobre los Voluntarios sin interrumpirlo. Cuando calló, le hizo innumerables preguntas, pidiéndole precisiones. A Roger lo maravilló que John Devoy estuviera tan prolijamente informado de lo que ocurría en Irlanda, incluso de asuntos que se suponía se guardaban en el mayor secreto.

No era un hombre cordial. Estaba endurecido por sus años de cárcel, clandestinidad y luchas, pero inspiraba confianza, la sensación de ser franco, honesto y de convicciones graníticas. En esa charla y en las que tendrían todo el tiempo que permaneció en Estados Unidos, Roger advirtió que él y Devoy coincidían milimétricamente en sus opiniones sobre Irlanda. John creía también que ya era tarde para la Autonomía, que ahora el objetivoguerra se fuera inclinando más del lado alemán, porque en esas circunstancias el Alzamiento podría combinarse con una acción paralela de la Marina y la infantería alemanas. Por fin, el Almirantazgo aceptó que Casement y Monteith viajaran a Irlanda. Lo harían en un submarino y llevarían a un brigadista como representante de sus compañeros.

La decisión de Roger de negarse a que la Brigada Irlandesa viajara a sumarse a la insurrección le acarreó fuertes choques con los alemanes. Pero él no quería que los brigadistas fueran sumariamente ejecutados, sin haber tenido siquiera la oportunidad de morir peleando. No era una responsabilidad que se echaría sobre los hombros.

El 7 de abril, el alto mando hizo saber a Roger que estaba listo el submarino en el que viajarían. El capitán Monteith


Environmental pollutants, such as polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), furans (PCDFs) and dioxin like PCBs keep appearing in the food chains due to their recalcitrant environmental characteristics and due to practices of raw materials, feed and food producers. Despite emission control measures taken, which have resulted in significant reductions in environmental contamination, Dioxin-food crises have appeared and still appear in the media almost every year, or sometimes several times a year since the beginning of the 21^st^ century. In the late years of the last century, the Belgian chicken crisis, lasted for more than half a year regarding import/export bans among EU countries and with non-European countries. The total economic costs of this crisis exceeded billion Euro. Since then the European Commission has established a set of instruments, including aDr Peter Wilson

Sporting CP terminate Jese loan Liga NOS Returns to PSG

Sporting CP have terminated their loan agreement with Jese, and the winger will return to parent club Paris Saint-Germain.

The Portuguese side's coach, Ruben Amorim, is thinking beyond the current season and feels there is no space in the side for players who are currently on loan.

Amorim and Sporting's issue with Jese was purely from an organisational standpoint, as the club was happy with former Real Madrid man's level of commitment and form.

The 27-year-old forward joined Sporting on loan in September 2019 and, in the last ten games, only managed two appearances.

After the coronavirus-enforced stoppages to domestic competition, the Sporting players began individual training on Monday at the club's facilities, although they are not under the command of coach Amorim.was 1st cellist of the Glendale Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Carmon Dragon. The Orchestra was quite popular in its day and Mistro Dragon's arrangements were much in demand. The orchestra was part of the Baby Snooks show, a radio show long before TV. One of his son's was Daryl Dragon who, when the Boys needed some string accompaniment, ask Igor, from his father's orchestra to record. Igor was a Russian immigrant and quite a character. Being classically trained he knew nothing about Rock music, but the Beach Boys took him under their wing to form a lasting friendship and recording/touring relationship. They encouraged him to do studio recording, which he knew nothing about. They got him some gigs and soon he was in demand, playing on


commercials, and movie sound tracks. They opened a whole world of professional cello playing to him where he made lots of money and enjoyed every moment. Straight-laced Igor and flamboyant rock drummer, Dennis became the odd couple when we toured and pal-ed around a lot -- Igor always taking movies with his 8mm camera. When Igor died, Mary, his wife, and I tried to locate the many reels of The Beach Boys in Europe, but in vain. Now they are lost to antiquity. But Igor lives on in song -- such as Little Bird. ~swd

Hmm...I was just reading today about the "baroque violin" - violins from the 17th century were set up differently than modern day violins, to the point where a "baroque violin" is considered an instrumentunto itself...I wonder if the same is true of 17th century cellos?

It is--but many of the finest extant instruments from the "early music" eras have been altered to suit the needs of the modern performer. Most existing Stradavarii and the instruments by similarly sought-after makers have been disassembled and put back together to accommodate modern strings and more vigorous playing. Horoshevsky's cello would similarly been dismantled and adapted for modern use. Interestingly, Celli were just starting to become commonplace in the 17th century, replacing earlier bass instruments from the related viol family. Some have argued that the cello started life as an instrument played "da spalla", ie, on the shoulder, like a violin, and that it was that instrument that Bach wrote his cello suites for.

It's fascinating to hear, and with the power of YouTube and the internet it's as easy as searching for these types of orchestras and recorded examples.

But to my younger and developing musical mind, hearing that professor describe how different an orchestra playing a familiar piece may have sounded vastly different in their original era versus hearing the Philly Orchestra or whoever playing it in modern times, it was really something to think about.

COMMENT to c-man: Musical instruments have changed through the years or rather centuries. Look at woodwinds and horns. Igor's cello was quite valuable. Just the bow was valued at over $4,000.

Plaintiff explained that she did not even know Beeler or his address although the record reveals that her acquaintance Sherry Beeler, whom she had been visiting immediately before the accident, knew Beeler, who had been at the house where plaintiff was visiting Sherry Beeler at the same time that the plaintiff was there. Plaintiff also claimed not to know who the second driver was at the time of the accident but admitted that she had learned his identity a few days after the accident while she was in the hospital.
When the plaintiff finally consulted a lawyer on May 25, 1982, he inquired if she or her husband had any insurance. The plaintiff furnished him with a copy of the policy


on her husband's car, which provided coverage for her under the circumstances of this accident under its uninsured motorist provisions. It was at that point that her attorney gave USF & G its first notice of the accident.
At trial plaintiff admitted that she knew at the time of the accident that she and her husband had insurance with USF & G that provided coverage if she was hit by an uninsured motorist in "your car." She admitted that she knew of the notice requirements of the policy. At the same time she claimed she did not know whether the other parties had insurance but believed that everyone had to carry insurance. It was not determined definitely until after the action was filed that both drivers were uninsured.

In many households dependent on the collection of rainwater as a source of drinking water, the collection area is normally the house roof and the rainwater is stored in a tank that can be constructed of iron, polyethylene, or concrete and which is located on a level below and in close proximity to the house roof so that the water flows by gravity down the spouting and to the storage tank.
Wind blown seeds, leaves, sticks, pollen, sand, road dust, bird droppings and dead insects etc can accumulate on the roof.
A problem associated with rainwater stored in a tank is a build-up of sediment and plant material, which has been carried off the roof along the spouting by the rainwater, and into the storage tank. As a result offor amicus curiae U.S.

WALLACE, Chief Judge:

1
Gumport, in his capacity as trustee of the bankruptcy estate of Transcon Lines (Transcon), appeals from the district court's summary judgment in favor of Sterling Press (Sterling).  The determinative issue in this case is whether certain antiforfeiture provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Secs. 363(l ) and 541(c)(1)(B), prohibit the application of section 2 of the Negotiated Rates Act of


describe a motor carrier of property, the words 'no longer transporting property' refer to and describe the financial condition of the motor carrier."   Mr. Chelliah further states that such a carrier would be required, under generally accepted accounting principles, to report its nonoperational status on its balance sheets.  Presented along with Mr. Chelliah's declaration are certain accounting texts that emphasize the importance of operating income as an element of financial reporting and as an indicator of the overall financial condition of an enterprise.

35
Sterling and amici argue, however, that the nonoperational condition of the debtor is not necessarily the same as the insolvency or financial condition of the debtor.  They correctly observe that it is possible for a carrier to stop transporting freight and yetthat there are a substantial number of large nonoperating motor carriers that are not in bankruptcy.

38
Both in its briefs and at oral argument, Transcon has persuasively emphasized that a motor carrier's nonoperational status "relates to" and is "indicative of" its financial condition.  A motor carrier's cessation of operations necessarily has an effect on its financial condition and would certainly be reflected on its financial statements.  Thus, the financial condition of a motor carrier and its operational status are indeed related.  However, because of the unusual characteristics of the motor freight industry, at least as it existed before the enactment of the Reform Act, section 2 is not "conditioned on " the insolvency or financial condition of the debtor.  Accord Whittier, 57 F.3d at 647.

FACT: Border apprehensions are at their lowest level since the early 1970s.

FACT: Apprehensions of people trying to cross the southern border peaked most recently at 1.6 million in 2000 and have been in decline since, partly because of technology upgrades, tougher penalties post-9/11, a decline in migration rates from Mexico and a sharp rise in the number of Border Patrol officers.

FACT: There are far more cases of travelers overstaying their visas than southwest border apprehensions.

FACT: DHS data shows that most individuals on the terrorist watch list — a different statistic than encounters with known or suspected terrorists — attempt to enter by air.

FACT: While 90% of the heroin sold in the United States comes from Mexico, virtually all of it comes through legal points of entry though.

Trump arguedfor the wall by claiming that sectors with barriers have seen a big reduction in border apprehensions.
FACT: numbers are down everywhere along the border — in sectors with barriers or fencing, and in sectors without them. From 2000 to 2017, southwest border apprehensions declined 81.5 percent overall.

Trump, visiting the border, said he never said Mexico is going to send the U.S. money for the wall.
FACT: Trump also claimed 212 times that Mexico would pay for the wall during his campaign.

Trump claimed that all of the 8 failed wall prototypes (including steel slats) – that he’s wanting us to pay for – was designed by a previous administration.
FACT: Trump approved those very failed prototypes; it was deployed in 2017 and he visited them multiple times in 2017 and 2018.


wings. This is also the case of the main landing gear well accommodating the main landing gear supporting the fuselage directly. In these two particular areas, the structure of the fuselage includes beams extending in the longitudinal direction of the fuselage: these are beams in the case of the wing box and gantries in the case of the main landing gear well. In these two areas, the architecture of the fuselage and transverse deformations to which it is liable to be exposed prohibit fitting the aforementioned crossmembers. This is why, in these areas, the rails are carried by links themselves carried by the longitudinal beams. It is therefore the position of the latter that conditions the position of the rails in the transverse direction, which therefore cannot beHorns blare as Polish trucker killed before Berlin attack buried

BANIE (POLOGNE) - Truckers honked their horns across Poland in homage to Lukasz Urban, the registered driver of the lorry hijacked in the Berlin Christmas market attack, who was buried on Friday.

Mourners attend the funeral of Lukasz Urban, the Polish truck driver who was killed in the Berlin Christmas market attack, in Banie near Sczczecin, northwest Poland, on December 30, 2016

The 37-year-old's funeral in the northwestern village of Banie was attended by Polish President Andrzej Duda as well as officials from Poland and Germany.

"We're extremely sad... Lukasz was really good to everyone, he never said no to anyone," childhood friend Danuta Jurewicz, 34, told AFP.

Some 120 truckers were expected to converge on Banie later Friday to pay their respects,


and trucks across Poland stopped at midday and sounded their horns in solidarity.

Urban's body was found in the truck that Tunisian jihadist suspect Anis Amri smashed into the Berlin market on December 19, killing 11 people.

Urban had been killed with a gunshot to the head some time before the attack and the owner of the transport company he worked for said his body showed signs of a struggle.

Family member Zofia Zurek recalled the moment she got the news.

"We recognised his truck on TV, we knew it was him. But until the body was identified, we had hope," she told AFP.

"Lukasz was a great guy and he took excellent care of his family."

The Polish state has said it will pay for the funeral costs. A British trucker, Dave Duncan,in time to the events that set this whole twisted story in motion. On a quiet evening in a small town in Italy, Francis and his close friend Alan attend a small carnival where they encounter the mysterious Caligari, played by the wonderful Kraus, and his corpse-like assistant Cesare, played by (in the most chilling performance of all time) Veidt.

As Caligari’s show reaches its climax, the audience learns that Cesare is a “psychic.” When Cesare chillingly predicts the death of Alan, both he and Francis are plunged into a twisted world of insanity, murder and horror.

“The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari” works as one of the first psychological, experimental horror films that has the ability to leave an imprint on the mind and send shivers down one’s spinal cord.
