(V2). The retromandibular vein after emerging from the apex of parotid gland, behind the angle of mandible, divided into unusually long anterior and posterior divisions. The anterior division was 3.6-cm long whereas posterior division measured 4.2 cm. Anterior division did not join the facial vein but it drained into the common channel V2. The posterior division of retromandibular vein also drained into V2 a little farther away. Posterior auricular vein was not present. A very thin vein was present on the nape of neck draining the suboccipital plexus of veins. This vein was joining the EJV near its commencement. After travelling a short distance of approximately 2 cm the EJV pierced the investing layer of deep fascia of the posterior triangle and drained into the subclavian vein \[[Figureconfluence of adjacent ones, regression of some form where the flow has been diverted. (Hamilton *et al*\[[@ref5]\]). The anterior jugular vein normally develops from venous plexus around head mesenchyme. It communicates with primitive maxillary vein and separates from primitive head veins. Deep part of the cephalic venous ring develops along the medial end of clavicle and later on gives rise to subclavian vein which receives EJV as its tributary. Primary head vein also joins the cephalic venous ring and forms internal jugular vein.

In our case the communication of anterior jugular vein between primitive maxillary vein and primitive head veins may have persisted, so the anterior jugular vein is connected with EJV through venous trunk proximally and to the internal jugular vein distally.

HOSTPLUS Team Announcement - Round 1

Share on social media

Melbourne Storm Coach Craig Bellamy has named his first squad of the 2014 season, including young Victorian Young Tonumaipea in the squad for the Round 1 opener.

Tonumaipea has been named on the wing and is in line to make his first-grade debut alongside Mahe Fonua on an all Victorian left edge. The 21-year old has impressed in Storm's 2014 trials, backing up a solid first season of senior football in 2013 with Cronulla after graduating from the club's U20 system. In 2012, Tonumaipea won Storm's Under 20’s Player of the Year Award as well as the Greg Brentnall Young Achievers Award thanks to a breakout year where he scored 11 tries.

A Northern Thunder (Melbourne) junior, the outside back's powerful runninggame proved a dangerous weapon for Storm's NSW Cup feeder club Cronulla on their run to the NSW Cup Premiership.

Bellamy has selected a strong side for the season opener with an experienced front-row including Captain Cameron Smith, internationals Jesse Bromwich, Kevin Proctor and Ryan Hoffman alongside the experienced duo of Bryan Norrie and Ryan Hinchcliffe. Fullback Billy Slater has also been named after missing Melbourne's trial matches throughout pre-season.

Ben Hampton and Ben Roberts will occupy Storm's halves positions with Cooper Cronk sidelined for one more week due to a shoulder injury.


Assessment Committee (DQAC), comprises members with expertise in medicine, pharmacology, clinical pharmacy, pharmaceutics, statistics, and regulatory processes. The DQAC evaluates information from the drug manufacturer and other independent sources, and makes an initial assessment with respect to clinical aspects of alternative therapies and generic interchangeability. The committee then makes its recommendation to the Saskatchewan Formulary Committee (SFC). The SFC reviews the recommendation of the DQAC and considers the administrative and economic implications of accepting the product for the patient, the programme, and healthcare professionals' practice. The SFC either reaffirms the recommendation of the DQAC or modifies it based on further review, and forwards its recommendation to the Ministry of Health. Finally, the Ministry of Health reviews the evaluation and determines the drug's formulary status.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)Image caption Anthony Sowell (left) had blamed the smell from his house on a nearby sausage shop

A sex offender who lived among the remains of 11 dead women at his home in Cleveland in the US state of Ohio has been convicted of killing all of them.

Anthony Sowell was found guilty of aggravated murder, kidnapping, tampering with evidence and abuse of a human corpse in the 11 deaths.

The 51-year-old former US Marine could face the death penalty.

The bodies were found after police went to arrest Sowell in October 2009 on a sexual assault allegation.

He showed little emotion on Friday as the jury returned their verdict of guilty on 82 counts after more than 15 hours of deliberation.

Police criticised

The trial heard how the women's bodies had been disposed of


in refuse bags and plastic sheets, then dumped around Sowell's house and backyard.

Image caption Relatives of the victims sobbed in court, as did some of jury

Nearly all of the women had been strangled and were nude from the waist down.

Cleveland's police force was accused of failing to properly investigate when the women began disappearing in 2007 as most of them were impoverished drug addicts.

During the trial, several women gave testimony of alleged attacks by Sowell, who was previously convicted of attempted rape in 1989.

One woman told the court she had been raped by Sowell, and that she had seen a headless body in his home.

Sowell's sentencing begins on 1 August.

With larger diameter manifold headers, the bending process has a tendency to deform the wall of the manifold header into a substantially egg-shaped cross sectional profile.
It is desirable to have a bending support adapted for use in the bending of a manifold header of a heat exchanger, in which the bending support prevents stress concentrations from deforming the inner radius of the bend. It is further desirable to have a bending support adapted to hold and maintain the internal refrigerant conduit in a predetermined position within the manifold header during the bending process and which assists in the bending of the internal refrigerant conduit to conform to the bend contour of the manifold.


Led by Logan Couture, a 21-year-old rookie who spent half the season in the American Hockey League, the Sharks rolled to a 5-0 win over the Avalanche on Thursday night before a roaring sellout crowd of 17,562 at the HP Pavilion.

With their second consecutive victory, the Sharks have taken a 3-2 lead in the Western Conference quarterfinals and can move on Saturday night in Game 6 at the Pepsi Center in Denver.

"It was cool," said Couture, who was summoned from Worcester in the American Hockey League for the final time on March 16. "My first two-goal game (in the NHL) and to get it in the playoffs … even to score one goal in the playoffs was amazing. To get the second one was extra special."

Sharks goalie Evgenigoals on 33 shots, has played exceptionally well in the series, but Nabokov has quietly been putting up some impressive numbers, stopping 77 of 79 shots in the past three games.

The Sharks also got goals from Joe Pavelski, Dwight Helminen and Patrick Marleau in the first game of the series decided by more than one goal.

"That was our plan, to break through and wear them down," Pavelski said. "We showed a little bit tonight. We finally scored (two) on the power play, which was good to see. You never know. You expect that one-goal game, especially the way the series has gone, so to get a few was good."

Couture collected his second goal at 10:37 of the third period when he knocked in the rebound of Ryane Clowe's


and was able to tip Dany Heatley's shot from the right circle at 8:25.

"I turned around and Heater made a great play," Couture said. "I don't know if it was a shot or a shot/pass, but he put it right on my stick and I tipped it."

When Pavelski scored on a power play at 10:21 for a 2-0 advantage, it marked the first time in the series that either team had managed to take a two-goal lead.

Anderson, who stopped 94 of 96 shots in the previous two games, lost an edge and fell to his left as Dan Boyle was feeding Pavelski near the Stanley Cup Playoffs logo inside the blue line. By the time Anderson scrambled to his feet and dived to his right, Pavelski was firingNollette

Letters & Documents

This part of my collection consists
of letters and documents from baseball's rich history.
One of my favorite pieces is the letter written in 1922
to "Shoeless" Joe Jackson from the Commissioner
of Baseball, Kenesaw "Mountain" Landis, banning
Jackson from the game forever for his part in the "throwing
of the World Seriesof 1919."

My collection also includes a fan letter written by
a small boy to Jackson at the end of Jackson's life
requesting his autograph. Jackson was illiterate and,
therefore, didn't send the boy an autograph. When Jackson
died in 1950, the boy's letter and the envelope in which
it came were found on Jackson's bedside. On the back
of the envelope, Jackson had twice signed his name the
best that he could and attempted it a third time.

Another fascinating letter in this collection was written
by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1954 to his idol,
baseball immortal Honus Wagner, commemorating Wagner's
80th birthday. Even Five Star Generals who become the
President of the United States can write fan letters.

One of my favorite documents is the check written to
Boston Red Sox manager Jake Stahl for $88,543.44, which

The Seiko SKX007 Series

, Arizona (PressExposure) July 23, 2011 -- Seiko is a brand that needs no introduction from the late 1960's its been able to make quite a reputation for itself and has established as a top brand in watches. The Seiko SXK007 series belongs to the Seiko divers collection for anyone who has an eye for dive watches this will surely be of interest.

What makes this series of Seiko the SXK007 special is the sophisticated look which comes in custom black and silver but do not be fooled by the looks as it is a divers watch it is capable to withstand rough conditions as well as sturdy usage. The various models of the SKX007 offer slightly different features but all have water resistance of 660A lithography method has been employed as a production method of a semiconductor circuit device. In the case where a semiconductor circuit device is produced by the lithography method, a conductor thin film layer, such as a metal film, used as a conductor wiring material, and an interlayer insulating film, such as a silicon oxide film, for insulating among the conductor thin film layers and the wiring are formed on a semiconductor substrate, such as a silicon wafer. Thereafter, a photoresist is coated uniformly on the surface thereof to provide a photosensitive layer, which is then subjected to selective exposure and development, thereby forming a desired resist pattern. The thin films in the lower layer part are subjected to a selective etching treatment with the resist pattern as


of copper contained in the copper wiring material into the insulating material, which lowers the insulating property thereof, a procedure is necessarily employed in that the copper wiring is covered with a film that prevents copper from being diffused (which will be hereinafter referred to as a diffusion preventing film). The diffusion preventing film is disposed between the copper wiring material and the insulating material in view of the function thereof. Examples of the formation method therefor employed include a method, in which an insulating material, such as an interlayer insulating film, having been formed into a desired shape is covered with a diffusion preventing film, which is generally referred to as a barrier layer or a barrier metal, formed by a film formation method, such as athe copper wiring material. The copper wiring material that is to be covered with the diffusion preventing film, which is referred to as a barrier layer, a barrier metal, a cap layer or a cap metal, is in an exposed state before covering with the diffusion preventing film. The copper in the exposed state is easily oxidized with oxygen in the air, and an oxide layer is formed on the surface of the copper wiring material before covering with the diffusion preventing film. While depending on the waiting time until the step of forming the diffusion preventing film, the exposed surface of the copper wiring material may be considerably oxidized to form foreign matters, or may suffer formation of contamination, corrosion and foreign matters derived from the production

The use of an amine compound or a triazole compound, such as BTA, forms a complex compound of the compound with copper on the surface of copper, thereby failing to provide a clean copper surface. The anticorrosion agent present on the copper surface is not desirable since it may cause increase in electric resistance, decrease in adhesion to the diffusion preventing film, occurrence of voids, and the like, as similar to modified copper. The use of a triazole compound or the like with low solubility in water is not desirable since the compound remains on the wafer surface even after rinsing with water,New Hampshire.

One indicator is a study conducted by the Department of Fish and Game that counts ticks on deer. Results from 2013 showed that 77.3 percent of deer carried ticks that year, up from only 2.4 percent in 1991. That includes deer in counties like Carroll and Cheshire, which had no ticks in 1991 but in 2013 reported 100 percent and 74 percent, respectively.

The increase is at least partially the fault of humans, Eaton said. Back in the day (way back in the day, around the 1890s), most of southern New Hampshire was open pastures, an environment in which ticks do poorly. Then, slowly, the forest grew in. Then people started building houses in the forest.

“We have forest areas and a little opening, and then more forest area,


why Williamson? Why not Henriques?' were questions answered through four tone-setting tight overs of spin bowling and an under-pressure knock of 44, worth its weight in gold.

SRH didn't just bring in Nabi, they planned a vital part of their game around him. Before he knew it, he was testing the patience of MI openers Parthiv Patel and Lendl Simmons by firing down deliveries from around the stumps. It took just four balls for the latter to crack. Simmons's wild swing was nowhere close to the ball that disturbed the stumps, drawing a barreling wave of cheers from a packed stadium.

The true purpose of summoning the offie however, lay elsewhere. Nabi had been drafted in to keep the explosive left-handers at the top of the MI line-up tied downa zone by this point that nothing could've been left to chance. At every opportunity, Warner also turned around to pick on the brains of coach Tom Moody as he wasn't content with just a mere incision. His intention was to drive the dagger deep into MI's heart.

"Whenever Davey is in front of the dugout, discussing about various option. And just to know what Davey is thinking about. T20 cricket is so quick, sometimes some outside help may be useful for the captain," Laxman revealed. SRH had channeled their desperation for a win into something so meaningful, that it even rendered merit to Laxman's press conference jargon of 'sticking to strategy' and 'executing game plans'.

The early advantage in the game had a cascading effect on SRH's fielding. Barring


a drop and an odd misfield, the holders were on their toes throughout. Only two days ago, they'd seen the ills of loosening the noose a little bit after beginning sharply. There was no letting up today.

But Rohit Sharma stuck out as a thorn. He fought his way out of early jitters, and a hit on the helmet, to put himself in a position to punish SRH. On a notoriously slow burner, he summoned all his class and vast IPL experience, calling the bluff on the bowlers' variations and making most of the freebies in an important partnership with Hardik Pandya. But, like a side obsessing over the two points on offer, SRH found ways to carve that open too. Rohit fought on regardless. In a season ofpresent
when he married in 1968."  However, it is clear from the
examiner's conclusion (that it was less likely that the Veteran's
tinnitus is related to military service) that the examiner relied
more heavily on the negative contemporaneous STRs and the history
of the Veteran's tinnitus (intermittent in 2003 and 2005 and with
an unusual pattern), as explained in his rationale in the final
paragraph of his examination report.

Given that the findings with respect to tinnitus reported on this
examination (1) clearly included a review of the entire claims
folder, including the relevant service records and the Veteran's
lay statements; (2) were detailed, (3) took into account the
Veteran's history, and (4) included a rationale for the
examiner's conclusions, the examination is deemed adequate with

Puretone thresholds were 35 decibels at 6000 hertz, bilaterally.

In September 2003, the Veteran complained of decreased hearing
and tinnitus.  In October 2003, he indicated that his hearing
loss was of gradual onset, and reported both in-service and
recreational noise exposure.  In April 2005, he reported service
noise exposure but denied civilian and recreational noise
exposure.  He was reported to have bilateral sensorineural
hearing loss.  In August 2005, he had some scarring of his
tympanic membranes.

On VA examination in December 2005, pure tone thresholds, in
decibels, were assupply, and
that he was exposed to loud jet engine noise.  He reported ear
infections in conjunction with colds as an adult, and could not
remember if he had ear infections as a child.  The exact onset of
the Veteran's tinnitus was unknown to the Veteran, but he
believed that it had been present when he was married in 1968.

The examiner indicated that based on the formal hearing tests at
induction and separation, which both indicated normal hearing in
both ears, it was less than likely that the Veteran's current
hearing loss was related to his military service.  He also
indicated that given the normal hearing at separation and no
mention of tinnitus in service treatment records, it was less
than likely that


the Veteran's tinnitus was related to service.

Based on the evidence, the Board concludes that service
connection is not warranted for bilateral hearing loss
disability.  It was not shown in service or for years after
service, and the examiner in December 2005 indicated that it was
less than likely that it was related to service after considering
induction and separation hearing tests.  The Veteran argues that
he had hearing loss in service as reflected by the service
medical records, and he cites a study to the effect that hearing
loss at 6000 Hertz if often indicative of some level of hearing
loss.  Moreover, he feels that his hearing loss is service
related.  However, the VA physician who examined the Veteran in
2005 examinedtestimony").  This is so because the STRs are
negative for complaints of hearing loss and the Veteran filed a
compensation claim shortly after service (in 1968) for other
disabilities but not for hearing loss.  As the Veteran's
statements are contradicted by contemporaneous evidence, the
Veteran's statements are deemed not credible.

Also based on the evidence, the Board concludes that service
connection is not warranted for tinnitus.  It was not shown in
service or for years after service, and the examiner in December
2005 indicated that it was less than likely related to the
Veteran's service after considering the Veteran's normal hearing
at service separation and no mention of tinnitus in service
treatment records.

The Veteran's asserted in December 2005 that he thought he had


to note any immune
system disorder, although he had ailments in the years after
service as reflected by treatment records.  Since the claim was
filed on September 30, 2005, he was treated for pharyngitis in
August 2007, and he reported in November 2007 that he had had an
infection in August 2007 which had resolved.  He was treated for
uvulitis in November 2007.  In January 2008, he indicated that
those ailments had resolved, but that his uvula was now swollen
again.  A different antibiotic was prescribed.  In October 2008,
he consulted for burning up, inability to keep fluids in him,
chills, and dehydration.  In May 2009, he reported a shoulder
infection and that a cardiac problem had developed from it.

Based53,202 (Aug. 31, 2010)  The intended
effect of this amendment is to establish presumptive service
connection for these diseases based on herbicide exposure.

Service treatment records are silent for reference to Parkinson's
disease, and the Veteran was first treated for a tremor in
December 2005.  Parkinson's disease has been diagnosed and
treated repeatedly since then.

There were four attempts to obtain service personnel records in
2009, as late as November 2009, with no response provided.
Further attempts to obtain service personnel records should be
made.  Thereafter, if necessary, a VA examination should be
obtained as indicated below.

Accordingly, the case is REMANDED for the following action:

1.	Obtain the Veteran's service personnel
records or a definitive indication that
they are unavailable.

2.	Thereafter,


is uniquely and essentially "Neil." His musical excursions are those of a student; they are those of a musician; not the manipulated packaging of an avaricious oaf. The reissues and new album of the last month attest to this.

As a whole, "On the Beach" is probably the strongest and most widely appealing of the reissue suite. From the plaintive beauty of "(See the Sky) About to Rain" and "On the Beach," to the more conflicted "Ambulance Blues," "Beach" is an excellent example of his early '70s work. Blending folk and blues, Young was able to refine an idiom that many of his contemporaries spent careers searching for and falling short. Throughout the next 30 years, Young continued to tinker with his obsessions, and the rest of the reissuesare a good sampling of the varied directions of his music. From the tepid Americana of "Hawks" to the crucial garage/folk of Stars and even the confounding reactor, Young has always been a rewarding, if enigmatic, artist.

In many ways a culmination of that enigma, "Greendale" is a great, if somewhat romantic achievement. But bridging the ambitious goals of a concept record (some are calling it a "rock novel") with solid and honest songwriting is something uniquely suited to Young. Reteamed with his longtime cohorts in Crazy Horse, he has created a fictional town peopled with characters that are presumably composed of bits and pieces of his personality. Though there are some narrative problems from song to song, this contributes to the primitivism Young arrives at naturally. Musically, it


embodies the heavy, plodding blues-rock of "Zuma" or even "Stars 'n' Bars" with the empathy of "Beach." Needless to say, it also represents one of the more experimental moments of Young's game.

But those ready to call foul at the pomposity of a concept record should simply listen to the music first. Young and Crazy Horse are at their finest (studio) moment in years on this record, glowing with their homegrown approach and a simmering, righteous anger that only years of individualism could produce.

By his amended complaint the plaintiff, a Vermont dealer and distributor, sought damages essentially contractual in nature from his Florida supplier, International Industries Limited, Inc. He also joined Forenta, Inc., a Delaware corporation manufacturing in Tennessee the product complained of as defective, and Carlisle Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation which supplied for the product tires claimed to be defective. The product claimed defective was a Hand-I-Tow towing unit, several of which were purchased by plaintiff from International, and by International's direction shipped directly, prepaid, from Forenta's


other vehicles behind a car or truck, were allegedly far short of their represented and warranted weight capacity, and thus unfit for their stated purpose. They were ordered by plaintiff, who paid for them, from International in Florida. International, in turn, ordered them from Forenta, the manufacturer, in Tennessee, requesting direct shipment to the plaintiff in Vermont, and paying for them. They were made by Forenta to International's design and specifications. The prepaid shipment was made in Tennessee by common carrier. No other contact with, or activity in, Vermont is ascribed to Forenta, and it is not registered to do business in Vermont.
The principal issue is thus clearly delineated by the parties. With service of process having been effected outside the state upon a foreign corporation, under theDescription

In one of the few true surprises at Sunday night’s Oscars ceremony, Spotlight closed out the evening with top honors, the Academy Award for Best Picture. The film, which dominated early Oscar buzz but was later drowned out by those pulling for Best Director winner Alejandro Iñárritu’s The Revenant, was also unusual in the fact of its win despite just one other Oscar, the award for Best Original Screenplay. It’s a relatively small bounty compared to last year’s winner, Birdman (four Oscars), and 2014’s top movie, Gravity (seven Oscars).

Still, two wins is nothing to scoff at, and Spotlight‘s victory is a testament to the power of no-frills, straightforward storytelling when the story is compelling, the acting ensemble is superb and, well,was damaged during Hurricane Katrina causing water to enter the house. The roof needed to be repaired prior to repairing the damage to the interior of the house. In order to have the roof repaired, her brother signed a contract with the defendant, Coldewy Corporation doing business as Landrieu Brothers, to repair the roof for the amount of $10,700.00.
The contract, which was admitted into evidence, provided the following would be performed: (1) remove existing pitch roof and repair roof decking as needed prior to installing the new roof, (2) 197 linear feet of drip edge would be installed, (3) re-flash the chimney, (4) furnish and install new 25 year GAF 3 tab and 30 pound felt, remove and haul away existing flat roof, two layers, (5) furnish and


install new rubberoid torch down white gravel, (try to build up on two ends), and replace roof decking as needed.
Ms. Fantazia testified that the new roof was installed and Landrieu Brothers was paid in full for this work. After the new roof was installed, the roof leaked in two separate places during a rain storm. Ms. Fantazia testified that she called Landrieu Brothers and left a message on their answer machine to tell them the roof was leaking. Ms. Fantazia's husband went into the attic and circled the areas where the water was coming through the roof. Landrieu Brothers sent a representative out to look at the leaks and work was performed in a different area than Ms. Fantazia felt the leaks originated. The roof continued to leak.Ms. Fantazia called Landrieu Brothers and explained that they did not find the source of the leaks. The same representative was sent to the house and Ms. Fantazia's husband got on the roof with a hose to show him where the water was coming through the roof. The representative pointed out several things that were wrong with the roof and assured Ms. Fantazia that they would come back and repair them. He also placed roofing cement on the roof. After this visit, Ms. Fantazia testified that the roof was still leaking.
Ms. Fantazia testified that she went to the Landrieu Brother's office and spoke to the manager. She explained that the representative who had been sent out to the house was not trying hard enough to fix the leaks.


She was informed that she had to work with this representative because that was his job. Later, a meeting was set up wherein Greg Landrieu came to the house to look at the roof. Mr. Landrieu told Ms. Fantazia that a sealant needed to be put on the flat roof and that more shingles needed to be put on the roof and that he would send someone out to perform these tasks.
Ms. Fantazia explained that at that point she became concerned about the *41 quality of the roof, so she contacted an attorney. At the attorney's suggestion, she contacted Patrick Vicknair to inspect the roof.
On cross-examination, Ms. Fantazia explained that she lives in Texas and her mother lives with her brother in Jefferson Parish. Neither were available totestify for this matter. She testified that there was no damage to the interior of the house due to leaking of the roof installed by Landrieu Brothers. Ms. Fantazia testified that she did not see the roof leaking in March of 2007, nor did she know if it was leaking at the time of trial. She did not have the roof repaired by someone else. She also admitted that there was one leak in the roof caused by a squirrel eating a stack on the roof over the bathroom.
Patrick Vicknair was accepted by the court as an expert in roof damage. Mr. Vicknair testified that he examined the roof on the plaintiffs' house, took pictures, and wrote up a document explaining what it would cost to replace the


roof. Mr. Vicknair testified that it was raining when he examined the roof and it was leaking. Using the pictures that were admitted into evidence, Mr. Vicknair explained the deficiencies in the roof. He explained that the rubber roid flat roof was not properly torched down and is curling. He depicted the area on the pictures where the entire edge of the flat roof is curled up. He showed an area where the shingles are also curled up. Mr. Vicknair testified that there is another roof under the new roof and the water is leaking through the new roof and going to the other roof and leaking down the back wall. He explained that this is why Ms. Fantazia does not see the leaks. Mr. Vicknair explained thatthe flat roof is not installed properly. He further testified that the shingles on the shingled roof are not installed according to the manufacturer's specifications. Mr. Vicknair explained that since the roof is improperly installed, there is no manufacturer's warranty. In Mr. Vicknair's opinion, the existing flat roof was not removed prior to installing the new flat roof. Mr. Vicknair explained that there are waves in the flat roof which will allow water to get under the roof and deteriorate the wood. Mr. Vicknair opined that the chimney was not re-flashed as provided for in the contract. Using a picture of the area where the flat roof ties into the sloped roof, Mr. Vicknair testified that the flashing was not properly installed. He explained that the siding was


he is the owner of Landrieu Brothers, which has performed roofing work since 1983. Documents depicting the material ordered and a sketch of the roof were introduced during his testimony. One document indicated there was a change order wherein more expensive material was used because the original material was not available. The plaintiffs agreed to pay for this change. Mr. Landrieu testified that he went to the house to look at the roof after Ms. Fantazia accused him of not installing a roof *42 they were paid to install. He showed Ms. Fantazia that the roof was replaced and pointed out the damage caused by squirrels. He testified that a flat roof has to cure for 60 to 90 days before the sealant can be applied. Mr. Landrieuthree to four occasions and did not see any leaks in the roof.
In response to Mr. Vicknair's testimony, Mr. Landrieu disagreed that the siding had to be removed to place flashing in the transition from the slope to flat roof. He further pointed out that he did not contract to take the siding off. He reviewed the pictures taken by Mr. Vicknair and stated that the roof was "put down pretty well."
On cross-examination, Mr. Landrieu testified that although he has no hands on experience in installing roofs, he has taken classes and has knowledge regarding installation. He agreed that if a roof is not installed properly, problems may not be visible for years. With regards to the drip edge, he testified that it was installed properly and there


and lift up. He also stated the weather was the reason for the waves in the flat roof. With regard to the sealant that was not placed on the roof, Mr. Hoggart testified that the roof has to cure, so the coating could have been applied in May, June, or July.
The court questioned Mr. Hoggart about the proper way to install flashing, inquiring whether shingles should be placed underneath or on top of flashing. Mr. Hoggart responded "it depends."
At the conclusion of trial, the court found the flat roof was not torched down properly and was improperly installed causing it to be wavy. The court also found the roof on the back gable of the house was not put on properly. The court awarded $6,000.00 to replace thethe back wall, which is why the leak was not visible. Mr. Vicknair further testified that the roof was not properly installed due to the rubber roid not being properly torched and the shingles not being properly placed. The pictures introduced into evidence clearly showed the edges of the roof were curling up and the flat roof was wavy preventing the roof from draining properly. Additionally, the trial court obviously credited the testimony of Mr. Vicknair over that of Mr. Landrieu regarding the improper installation of shingles over flashing in the area where the slope roof transitions to the flat roof. Thus, based on the testimony presented by Ms. Fantazia and Mr. Vicknair, as well as the pictures introduced into evidence, appellees carried their burden of proving the

age 1 year) survived on the heart for a median time of 28 days compared to five days for the children on the ECMO device. The longest time a child in this cohort was on the Berlin Heart was 174 days compared to 21 days for the ECMO group. At 174 days, 88 percent of the children in the cohort had been successfully transplanted and 12 percent had died or failed weaning. In the comparison group, 25 percent of the children had died at 21 days and none were still on the ECMO device.

For children in the second cohort with a larger body size (average age 9), the median survival on the Berlin Heart was 43 days compared to five days for the ECMO group. The longest ait from scratch. Instead, after 1991, he opted to partition the KGB. Its first chief directorate, responsible for espionage, was simply rebranded as the Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR). Most of the directorates tasked with domestic security were gathered together first under the umbrella of the Ministry of Security, then the Federal Counter-Intelligence Service, and, in 1995, the FSB.

Since then, the FSB has not looked back, especially after 1998, when for a brief time it was headed by a little-known ex-KGB officer whose career was about to experience an unexpected boost—one Vladimir Putin. In the years since, the FSB has been one his staunchest allies, hounding and discrediting his rivals, looking after his underlings, and clamping down on any spasms of popular protest. In return, he has shielded, empowered,


and elevated the agency, turning a blind eye to corruption in its ranks, allowing it to one-up rival agencies such as the Federal Anti-Narcotics Service (Russia’s equivalent to the DEA, which was abolished in 2016), and giving its officers key positions, from regional governorships to head of his security council.

Traditionally, Putin controlled Russia’s sprawling bureaucracy by creating multiple, overlapping agencies, that he would then play off against each other. This is especially evident within the intelligence community. In Ukraine, for example, the SVR, FSB, and GRU, the military intelligence agency, all ran competing operations. When former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych was toppled by the “Euromaidan” revolution in 2014, catching Moscow by surprise, the result was a hurried game of pass-the-buck. Although the FSB had been the agency mostclosely associated with Yanukovych and had argued most forcefully that he would survive, it enjoyed Putin’s support, and so the SVR wound up taking the blame for the intelligence failure.

One result of the agencies fighting over the same turf has been the increasing intrusion of the FSB into foreign operations. In 2003, the agency absorbed most of the electronic eavesdropping and cyber-espionage capabilities of FAPSI, Russia's equivalent of the NSA. In 2005, it began operating in post-Soviet neighboring states. In 2006, Russia passed a law allowing military force to be used “to suppress international terrorist activity outside the Russian Federation”—just before the murder of defector Alexander Litvinenko in London.

– and that a national day should "commemorate a beginning".

In his blogpost A Tale of Two National Holidays, Joshua Hitchcock also compares the commemorations and, while recognizing the value of Anzac Day, questions the priorities it reveals: "We value our participation in a worthless war, and an unwise invasion that ended as an unmitigated disaster, more than we do the very formation of our nation."

The way politicians and media work hard to play up the noble aspects of courage, comradeship and sacrifice, but ignore the unpalatable facts – particularly around the Gallipoli campaign itself – is a source of frustration for many.

Chris Trotter has previously written about the real reason New Zealand troops were sent charging into Turkish machine guns on Turkish beaches in 1915: mainly to propup the Tsar’s Russian empire. As Trotter puts it: "In modern terms, it would be like asking 3000 young New Zealanders to die for the Chinese politicians who ordered the troops into Tiananmen Square" – see: A Huge Exercise In National Denial.

Alastair Reith makes a similar point in ANZAC Day: What are we celebrating?, but also looks at the forced conscription and Maori resistance to fighting in WW1 which run counter to the modern Anzac mythology.

Puppy found in box with mouth wrapped shut at Gresham park

A second case of disturbing animal abuse has been discovered involving a puppy's mouth tied shut.

A man found a puppy in a box with filthy blankets in Kane Park in Gresham at 8 p.m. Wednesday. The pit bull puppy had its entire muzzle wrapped tightly shut, according to Multnomah County Animal Services.

The dog also had two broken front legs.

"As soon as I pulled the little dirty blanket off I see a little puppy staring at me in the face," said Nestor Salazar, who credits his own curious pit-bull named ‘Goofy' for sniffing the puppy out in the bushes. "I could see the horrified look in his eyes."

MADRID — France and a group of Brazilian states plan to announce a partnership to preserve the Amazon rainforest, the group’s leader said on Monday, bypassing Brazil’s federal government after a spat between the presidents of the two countries.

The governor of Amapá state, Waldez Góes, who heads a consortium of the nine states that make up Brazil’s vast Amazon region, told Reuters that the partnership would be announced at the United Nations climate summit in Madrid this week and would include other initiatives aimed at cutting greenhouse gas emissions.

De novo assembly of the transcriptomes of two yellow mangroves, Ceriops tagal and C. zippeliana, and one of their terrestrial relatives, Pellacalyx yunnanensis.
Mangroves are dominant woody plants in the intertidal zones and are of both ecological and economic importance. Species of Ceriops, also called yellow mangroves, have many adaptive traits (including vivipary) for coping with the harsh marine environments. However, little is known about the origination and evolutionary history of this genus. In this study, we aim to provide clues to these two questions by sequencing the transcriptomes of two Ceriops species, Ceriops tagal and Ceriops zippeliana, and one of their terrestrial relatives, Pellacalyx yunnanensis. 48.19, 10.50 and 35.37 million high-quality reads that were generated by Illumina sequencing were assembled into 50,807, 40,543 and 64,147 contigs for the..

CORONA (CBSLA) – The family of an intellectually disabled man who was shot and killed by an off-duty Los Angeles police officer in a Corona Costco back in June have sued the city of Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Police Department.

On the night of June 14, 32-year-old Kenneth French of Riverside and his parents, Russell and Paola, were shot by off-duty LAPD Officer Salvador Sanchez while in line at a sample station at a Costco in Corona.

Kenneth, who has been described by his family’s attorney as schizophrenic and nonverbal, was killed. His parents were critically wounded but survived. Both were shot in the back.

The shooting created chaos in the store, sending shoppers scurrying for the exits. Corona police officers responded to reports of an active shooter.

Sanchez’s attorneyis the Speakerâ€™s domain.â€

The Speaker, Sumitra Mahajan, is a seasoned BJP Parliamentarian and reports suggested that she may not rule in favour of the Congress even as its appointed leader in the Lok Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge met the Ms Mahajan on Thursday with a request to allow the UPA sit in the Opposition benches on the grounds that the alliance had been before the General Elections.

Ms Mahajan is expected to go by the book and also the 1984 precedence when Rajiv Gandhi won a landslide election and there was none to sit in the Opposition.

Ms Mahajan too steered clear of the issue of grant of Leader of Opposition status in the House to the Congress.

"The meeting of leaders of political parties was convened to discuss the business of


the House," was the refrain of the Speaker after the luncheon meeting to repeated questions on what was her decision on the issue.

The Speaker had earlier said she will take a decision on the issue before the budget session after consulting constitutional experts and "experienced" persons.

Mr. Kharge merely said that the s meeting was to discuss the issue to be raised during budget sesssion.

He added that people have not granted the numbers to the Congress to get that status and said the rules have been framed in 1977 and would be followed. He also cited the example of 1984 when the TDP was not accorded the status.
On Friday, Congress appeared to have decided to raise the pitch in its demand for being accorded the status for its nomineein the Lok Sabha making it clear that the Speaker has no arbitrary powers.

Insisting that the powers of the Speaker are "neither arbitrary, nor unbridled or unilateral" on deciding the issue, Congress spokesman Randeep Surjewala said the post of the Leader of the Opposition is a "constitutional right" of Congress as the biggest party in the opposition as also the biggest pre-poll alliance.

I presume for a Political Party that claims to be the sole crusader for India's independence and inheritor of India, apart from having ruled over the major part of the 65 years of independent India, the ignominy to have been reduced to a 'political organisation' and not even qualifying to be a 'political party' , is too bitter a pill to swallow to assuage its ego


in 1977 but no Leader of Opposition was appointed in 1984. P Upendra, the leader of the TDP in Lok Sabha who later went on to become a central minister, was never appointed Leader of Opposition. The Speaker was Congress veteran Balram Jakhar. Contacted by The Sunday Express, he said he couldnâ€™t recall â€œany trouble or issue over this matter, and whatever it was, must be a matter of recordâ€.

Subhash Kashyap, then secretary-general of Lok Sabha, recalls it clearly: â€œIt would be a betrayal of confidences of several people, some of whom are now dead, but there were goings-on in the Speakerâ€™s chambers, when three people from the TDP walked in and asked for the post.â€

â€œThey were told that it would not be possible as we operated onprecedents in the House of Commons and that G V Mavalankar, Indiaâ€™s first Speaker, had on the same basis of too-small-an-Opposition established such a precedent that Lok Sabha had not designated a Leader of Opposition till 1969.â€

â€œThere was no fuss, no demand, nothing. They went away and P Upendra became leader of the parliamentary group and parliamentary party. He was accorded privileges and protocol, but never designated as Leader of Opposition,â€

Kashyap said. With the start of the coalition era in 1989, things became complicated and the two-party House of Commons rule too simple to take recourse to because very often the single-largest parties were sitting in Opposition during the 1990s.

In 1989, Rajiv Gandhiâ€™s Congress party emerged as the single-largest with 195 members and he was recognised as Leader


Opposition?â€

The Congress is planning to submit a formal representation to Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan to assert the â€œlegitimacyâ€ of its claim to the post of Leader of Opposition, both as the party with the most members in the House after the BJP, and as the leader of the largest pre-poll alliance after the NDA.

Sources said the Congress move follows fears in the party that the Speaker is leaning towards denying the status of LoP to it. The party has just 44 of the 543 seats in the Lok Sabha.

The decision of the Speaker is crucial also because the LoP is part of the panel that selects the Lokpal, and the head and members of the Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) and the Central Information Commission (CIC).

In its plannedeight-page representation addressed to the Speaker, the Congress has said that even without its allies, it is entitled to the post. It has cited The Salary and Allowances of Leaders of Opposition in Parliament Act, 1977, which it says grants statutory recognition to the post of LoP, and mandates the creation of such a post.

Section 2 of the Act, the party will argue, says the â€œLeader of Opposition in relation to either House of Parliament is defined as a member of the Rajya Sabha or the Lok Sabha, who is the Leader of the party in opposition to the Government having the greatest numerical strengthâ€.

The section does not specify any other condition, the Congress will tell the Speaker in its representation. The LoP, the representation will say, is

New Delhi: In order to leave no stone unturned to get the post of Lok Sabha's Leader of Opposition for her party, Congress president Sonia Gandhi met President Pranab Mukherjee on Tuesday.

The UPA chairperson had yesterday raised a strong pitch against the silence of Narendra Modi-led NDA government on the subject.

She had also held a meeting with party MPs in Lok Sabha yesterday. The meeting was held after UPA MPs decided to write to Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan seeking an immediate decision on the issue.

Party spokesperson Anand Sharma had yesterday said that the letter is ready and will be sent to the Speaker after all UPA MPs had signed it.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Moving defiantly to kick-start the long-stalled Keystone XL oil pipeline, President Donald Trump on Friday issued a new presidential permit for the project — two years after he first approved it and more than a decade after it was first proposed.

Trump said the permit issued Friday replaces one granted in March 2017. The order is intended to speed up development of the controversial pipeline, which would ship crude oil from tar sands in western Canada to the U.S. Gulf Coast.

Loop: Man Who Armed Himself With Jack Daniel's Bottle Is Among Three Recent Robbery Arrests

A man who allegedly tried to mug four people while armed with a Jack Daniel’s bottle is among three men who’ve been charged with robbery in the Loop recently.

Brandon | CPD

Prosecutors said Marlon Brandon, 36, approached a couple as they walked in the 700 block of South Plymouth on the evening of June 2. He allegedly raised the bottle of Old No. 7 over his head and twice yelled out, “Give me your money!” The man, 54, and woman, 36, ran away.

Brandon followed the couple and then broke off to threaten two more people in the same fashion, police said. Cops found Brandon a few minutes later as he stood


in the doorway of a closed retail shop in the 500 block of South Dearborn.

Prosecutors charged him with two counts of armed robbery and Judge John Lyke ordered him held without bail. Brandon was only charged with trying to rob the first couple because police could not find the other pair.

TV regulator Ofcom had found E! Entertainment breached the broadcasting code by showing the editions of 'Girls Of The Playboy Mansion' throughout the day when children could be watching.

It imposed a financial penalty on the station as a result of the screenings on December 27 last year.

Ofcom decided the episodes included material which was “unsuitable for pre-watershed broadcast” and the episodes were shown at a time, during the holiday period, when it was likely unaccompanied children could have been watching.

The shows were shown in batches from 10am


A roundup of FFA news for the week of Jan. 17, 2013:

GNADENHUTTEN, Ohio — Indian Valley FFA members are planning a blood drive Jan. 25 at Indian Valley High School. Also, members are preparing two teams for a food science contest in January at Ridgewood schools.Foreign Ministry strike may delay Dermer move to D.C.

Ron Dermer may take up his new diplomatic position as Israel’s next ambassador to the United States later than originally planned due to a strike by Foreign Ministry employees.

Dermer, who was officially named to the position last week, was scheduled to take up his post next month. But Foreign Ministry workers are refusing to arrange his diplomatic passport, process his transfer to Washington or arrange for his departing airplane ticket, according to the Times of Israel.

Last month, the strike by the Foreign Ministry Workers’ Union caused a halt to consular services at Israeli embassies and consulates in the United States and around the world. The work stoppage has prevented the paperwork for families coming on aliyah this summer and threatened


to prevent athletes from 14 countries from participating in the Maccabiah Games, which begin on Thursday.

Dermer, who immigrated to Israel from Florida 15 years ago, succeeds Michael Oren, a New Jersey native. Oren announced on July 5 that he would be vacating his post in the fall.

The work stoppage is part of a nearly 4-month-old labor dispute. The workers are protesting salary cuts and poor compensation packages offered to spouses of overseas diplomats.

In addition to not having completed diplomatic paperwork, Dermer has not received a preparation course required for new diplomats . The embassy also has not requested permits from the United States needed for a new ambassador, according to the Times of Israel.

ESOP.  The ESOP was a retirement benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA.  The ESOP accumulated shares of Cragin Financial Corporation, the holding company for Cragin, in a trust for the benefit of eligible employees or their beneficiaries. The committee that administered the ESOP was given "exclusive responsibility and authority to control and manage the operation and administration of the Plan, including the interpretation and application of its provisions."   Cragin ESOP at § 12.1.  The ESOP also granted the committee the specific power to "determine which Employees qualify to enter the Plan."  Id. at § 12.9.

On June 1, 1994, ABN AMRO North America, Inc.  ("ABN AMRO") purchased Cragin Financial Corporation.  As a result of the purchase, the ESOP stockeligible to participate in the plan, where "Employee" is defined as "any individual who is or has been employed or self-employed by an Employer."   Using the language of the plan as its guide, the Committee thus considered whether plaintiffs were "self-employed by an Employer" or whether they were "employed by an Employer."   Because the plan defined "Employer" narrowly to mean Cragin, an affiliate of Cragin as contemplated under the Internal Revenue Code, or an entity that succeeded to the business of Cragin and adopted the ESOP, the Committee reasonably concluded that plaintiffs were not self-employed by an Employer.  Rather, the Committee found, plaintiffs were self-employed by themselves.2

Similarly, under the language of the ESOP, the Committee determined that plaintiffs were not "employed" by an


Employer because each had signed an agreement designating themselves as independent contractors for all purposes.  Plaintiffs conceded at oral argument that they, in fact, considered themselves to be independent contractors for some purposes, such as tax liability.  The Committee reasonably concluded that persons who were identified both by themselves and by Cragin as independent contractors were not in the same category as persons identified by Cragin as Employees for the purposes of benefits determinations.  Nor had Cragin expressed any intent to treat plaintiffs as Employees for the purposes of the ESOP.  Cragin had consistently denied plaintiffs participation in the ESOP, and had never provided plaintiffs with ESOP benefits statements or copies of the Summary Plan Description.

Parts of the public service have been slammed for inefficiency in a new Productivity Commission report.

The report, Measuring and Improving State Sector Productivity, was commissioned by the previous government and said the private sector measured its productivity but the public sector fell short.

This was despite $40 billion being spent annually on government services such as health, education, justice, law and order and social welfare.

"The New Zealand government has been organised around outputs since the late 1980s," the report said.

"Despite this, the commission found that for large parts of the state sector, there is little measurement or understanding of productivity.

"In some sectors ... agencies were either unwilling to conduct productivity assessments, or were unable to bring together the data needed for such studies.

"The public sector financial management system providesAt the Art Museums of Colonial Williamsburg, discover priceless collections together and take home priceless memories.

Fiorello La Guardia

Fiorello La Guardia was born in New York City on December 11, 1882, to an Italian Catholic father and an observant Jewish mother. The couple had emigrated from Trieste to the United States in 1880. Fiorello's first job was with the U.S. Embassy in Budapest in 1900. Later, he worked for the U.S. Immigration Service in New York City while he studied law at New York University.

La Guardia was admitted to the bar in 1910. In 1916, he became the first Italian-American elected to the U.S. House of Representatives. He belonged to the progressive wing of the Republican Party, opposing prohibition, supporting women's suffrage and campaigning against child labor. In 1932, he co-sponsored the Norris-La Guardia Act, which restricted the power of courts to ban strikes.

In1932, Franklin D. Roosevelt's landslide victory swept away many Republican members of Congress, including La Guardia. Undeterred, La Guardia was elected mayor of New York City in 1933. Over the next twelve years he developed a reputation as an efficient and honest administrator. A supporter of the New Deal, La Guardia expanded the city's social welfare services and initiated a program of low-cost housing. One of his best known remarks was that, "There is no Democratic or Republican way to clean the streets." La Guardia also became known as an early and vocal opponent of the Nazis. Standing five feet, two inches, LaGuardia was known affectionately as the "Little Flower."

La Guardia did not seek re-election as mayor in 1945. The following year he became director general of the

image caption The slippers have been put on display for the public

A pair of slippers believed to have once belonged to Napoleon Bonaparte's sister have been uncovered in Aberdeen.

Louise Wilkie, of the University of Aberdeen's museum team, was tasked with cleaning and sorting through a collection.

Her research led her to link the owner of the slippers and the famous French military leader's sister Princess Pauline Borghese.

The small silk and leather slippers are now on display.

The collection in question belonged to the Banff-born medical graduate and traveller Robert Wilson.

The slippers were in a chest of clothes and were marked on the sole with 'Pauline Rome'.

Ms Wilkie said: "Robert Wilson left his collection of objects from his extensive travels


to the museum in his will in 1871.

"In a list of the objects donated by Wilson is the description of 'A pair of slippers - Pauline, Rome Jan 20th 1824'.

"I began to look at other archival material held by the university and found that Wilson had a friendship with Princess Pauline Borghese, the sister of Napoleon Bonaparte."

image caption Napoleon's sister was linked to the slippers at the university

She explained: "Letters from him to Pauline show a close friendship and in his diary he describes how she spent a lot of time with him travelling in Italy and gave him many gifts, including a ring which is also held in the museum collections.

"The relationship between Wilson and Princess Pauline can only be speculated upon, however records do indicate someform of attraction and attachment.

"He kept the gifts she had given him for life and then they passed to the University collections.

"It is amazing to think the slippers have been here all this time but their significance was never fully realised. I was delighted to make a discovery of this kind."

'Great detective work'

Neil Curtis, head of museums at the University of Aberdeen, said: "The university holds huge collections and many of the items given to us over the years do not have full descriptions.

"It was a great piece of detective work from Louise to piece together the fascinating history behind the slippers.


Gothelf reflects on title success

Zack Gothelf admits he breathed a sigh of relief after Loughton Orient's last day win over L'Equipe ensured that Norstar London Raiders C were crowned champions of MGBSFL Division Three.

Having finished the season with 42 points from their 18 games, NLR had to play a waiting game as L'Equipe closed the gap at the top during an impressive run-in. But strikes from Barry Green and Jamie Crawford crushed their hopes as they were beaten 2-1 to hand the title to NLR.

"It's been a tense month, but we've done it," Gothelf told JC Sport. "The old debate of points on the board versus games in hand has swung slightly more to the points in hand side.

Monash: The Forgotten Anzac

One of the most brilliant generals of World War I and an architect of Anzac Day, Sir John Monash helped create the Anzac legend by ensuring the courage of his men was enshrined in Australian history.

“An excellent exercise in popular history that avoids easy opportunism.”Weekend Australian

One of the most brilliant generals of World War I and an architect of Anzac Day, Sir John Monash helped create the Anzac legend by ensuring the courage of his men was enshrined in Australian history. Today he is all but forgotten.

Monash: The Forgotten Anzac explores the character and achievements of an extraordinary figure in Australian history, the battles he fought both on and off the battlefield, and the prejudice he overcame to help win a war.

It is the storyof an unlikely hero; a middle aged German Jew with great self-belief who fought not just the German army but those on his own side who used his heritage to undermine him.

To many, Monash’s cultured European background made him unsuitable to command an army made up of egalitarian Australian volunteers, but his sophistication and ease with the British aristocracy allowed him to exhibit his skill as a military strategist. Defeating powerful opposition to become commander of the Australian Corps, Monash devised a plan that won key World War I battles and saved thousands of lives.

It was largely through his efforts during the war and its aftermath that the Anzac legend was forged and the soldiers of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps became famous for their qualities


Mother Mosque of America, based in Cedar Rapids. Tawil and Ellison went on the Hajj pilgrimage together in 2008.

Ellison said he endorsed Sanders because of the senator’s commitment to middle class and lower-income Americans. The men have both supported legislation to increase the federal minimum wage and strip subsidies from oil companies, Ellison said.

Ellison said he was proud of Sanders, who entered a Washington, D.C., mosque and spoke out against Islamophobia on Dec. 16, the day after a televised Republican debate in which candidates talked about monitoring Muslims in America.

“This is the kind of leadership our nation needs right now,” Ellison said.

Ellison received applause from the group when he said America should admit more Syrian refugees and denounce Israeli settlements in Palestinian territory.

Newman Abuissa, ofJoel Monaghan will face the taunts and jibes of a crowd on Sunday for the first time since fleeing Australia in embarrassment.

The Kangaroo wingman asked for a release from Canberra Raiders and flew to Europe after a photo was posted on the internet showing him simulating a lewd act with a dog at an end-of-season drinking session.

"It was the worst time of my life," said Monaghan, as he faced the media for the first time yesterday at his new club, Warrington.

"I didn't turn the internet on or read a newspaper for about two months. The hardest thing was seeing my family dragged in as well. I never slept for a week and it was obviously a rough time."

Monaghan will play for the first time since that infamous escapade


in the friendly at Leigh this weekend and his brother, Michael, already an established player with the Wolves, has warned him to expect a ribald reception.

"He's said that I'm going to have to experience a lot, but I'm big enough," he said. "I know what's going to happen, so I've got my head around it."

The Warrington captain, Adrian Morley, has no doubts that Monaghan will take any abuse in his stride. "I played with Joel for two years at the Sydney Roosters and I know what a strong character he is," he said. "There's going to be a bit of banter, but I don't think it's going to be an issue for him. He's been crucified in Australia, so this is going to be a walk in thepark by comparison.

"He's heard all the jokes from the players, because rugby league is a game where there's plenty of mickey-taking. We haven't been walking on eggshells with him and, underneath all the nonsense, we've got a very good player. The NRL's loss is our gain."

Another new team-mate, Jon Clarke, said: "We've absolutely murdered him and that's helped him settle in."

The Warrington coach, Tony Smith, is equally confident Monaghan will weather his baptism. "Rugby league fans are generally pretty good," he said. "He knows there will be a bit of banter coming his way, but nothing that goes too far. Having a laugh at each other is what keeps us down to earth and stops us getting too full of ourselves."


ABOUT | Kehinde Wiley is a New York-based portrait painter, who is known for his highly naturalistic paintings of people with brown skin in heroic poses. He will often use Old Masters paintings for the pose of the figure. The works presented in Kehinde Wiley: A New Republic raise questions about race, gender, and the politics of representation by portraying contemporary African American men and women using the conventions of traditional European portraiture. The exhibition includes an overview of the artist’s prolific fourteen-year career and features sixty paintings and sculptures.

Wiley's signature portraits of everyday men and women riff on specific paintings by Old Masters, replacing the European aristocrats depicted in those paintings with contemporary black subjects, drawing attention to the absence of African Americans from historical and culturalCHARGES from Thursday and Friday night games will be laid within 24 hours and players launching AFL Tribunal challenges will no longer risk automatic longer bans under sweeping changes to the Match Review Panel to take effect next season.

Long-time MRP member Michael Christian will become the sole match review official under the new system, replacing the panels of former players previously used.

Where the MRP has until now been notionally independent from the AFL, Christian will report directly to AFL football operations manager Steve Hocking.

The AFL has also scrapped the one-match discount previously offered for early pleas, with clubs that elect to challenge MRP decisions now risking a $10,000 cost that will be included in their soft football department cap.

Hocking said the heavy focus on Thursday and Friday night matches required the AFL to review those games the following day, which would be done on a trial basis in 2017.

"The clubs want more certainty in preparation for the following week and the other part is the anxiety that the players actually encounter as these (incidents) are talked about right through the whole weekend," Hocking said.

In 2018, Saturday and Sunday games will continue to be reviewed on Mondays, but Hocking said the AFL would consider extending the MRP review schedule in 2019 to include reviews of Saturday games on Sundays.

Serco was founded in 1929 as RCA Services Limited, a United Kingdom division of the Radio Corporation of America and initially provided services to the cinema industry.[4] It changed its name to Serco in 1987 and has been a London Stock Exchange listed company since 1988.[4]

In November 2014 its share price, which stood at 674p before the taxpayer scandal broke in 2013 collapsed to 218.7p, after four profit warnings. The new chief executive Rupert Soames sold off "scores of divisions". He said the company was suffering from ministers’ improved ability at driving a bargain, and


per hour.[27] The decision to give the firm a new £70 million eight-year contract to run Yarl's Wood has been criticised. Natasha Walter, of Women for Refugee Women, said "Serco is clearly unfit to manage a centre where vulnerable women are held and it is unacceptable the government continues to entrust Serco with the safety of women who are survivors of sexual violence."[28]

Serco provides air traffic control services at international airports in the United Arab Emirates[37] and at some smaller airports in the United States and Canada.[38][39] Starting in 2004 Serco had a £5m a year contract from the US government to manage airports in Iraq for 18 months.[40] Serco also operate Scatsta Airport on Shetland.[41] In June 2010 Serco signed a £4 million contract to operate allair traffic control services for Coventry Airport.[42]

The company had the contract for out-of-hours GP services in Cornwall from which it withdrew in December 2013 after the company left the county short of doctors. The company also said it would stop running Braintree hospital in Essex as it pulled out of managing GP services and large hospitals.[47]

In health services, Serco's difficulties include the poor handling of pathology labs and fatal errors in patient records. At St Thomas' Hospital, the increase in the number of clinical incidents arising from Serco non-clinical management has resulted in patients receiving incorrect and infected blood, as well as patients suffering kidney damage due to Serco providing incorrect data used for medical calculations.[48] A Serco employee later revealed that the company had falsified 252 reports


to the National Health Service regarding Serco health services in Cornwall.[49]

It emerged in November 2013, Serco, which won a contract for Suffolk Community Healthcare in 2012, had 72 vacancies after earlier cutting 137 posts. Problems identified by Ipswich and East Suffolk Clinical Commissioning Group include “staff capacity, skill mix, workload, succession planning and morale, training, communication, mobile working, care co-ordination centre processes, incidents and near miss incidents”.[50]

In April 2014 Serco revealed that it would lose almost £18 million on three of its NHS contracts. The firm has made provisions for losses in its Braintree and Cornwall contracts, which were cancelled early. It has also made provisions for losses in its contract for services in Suffolk. The company claims it will take longer to deliver the operational efficiencies ithoped for, despite saying in May 2013 that it expected to make a profit on the three-year, £140 million contract for community services.[51]

In August 2014 it was reported that the company had decided to withdraw from the clinical health services market in the UK after a review of the cost of delivering “improved service levels” and meeting the performance requirements of several existing contracts.[52]

Serco held a ten-year contract with Bradford City Council between 2001 and 2011 to manage and operate the local education authority,[53] providing education support services to the City's schools. This period was marked with "real problems" according to senior council officials and was taken back in house by the local authority after this period.[54] Serco similarly manages and operates Walsall[55] and Stoke-on-Trent local education authorities.[56]


Serco is one of Ofsted's three Regional Inspection Service Providers, responsible for school inspections in the English Midlands.[57]

Serco, through a purpose-made division Serco DES, holds a ten-year, $114 million contract with the Province of Ontario to operate the province's DriveTest driver examination centres. These tests include vision, road, and knowledge tests for all persons seeking to become a licensed automobile driver in the province.[38]

The Union of Christmas Island Workers highlighted the systemic failure by Serco to manage the Christmas Island Immigration Reception and Processing Centre. The centre detains a large number of refugees including 1,000 children.[69] Under Serco, there has been an increase of deaths in custody, self-harm, and of Serco staff beating prisoners. As well, there has been a deterioration of facilities leading to the decline ofthe physical and the mental health of detainees and of staff. OmbudsmanAllan Asher said on the Australian radio show AM, "In the first week of June when I visited Christmas Island, more than 30 incidents of self-harm by detainees held there were reported".[69] Serco, in a staged memo leaked to The Australian, blamed the detainees for "creating a culture of self-harm", in order to use it as a "bargaining tool".[69] The former manager of the Serco run detention centre stated the centre was grossly understaffed whereby it was "typically 15 staff members short every day".[69]

In Auckland, New Zealand, Serco runs the Mount Eden Prison remand prison[70] and in March 2012 was awarded the contract to build and operate a 960-bed prison at Wiri.[71] Serco was heavily criticized for

A first half penalty from Zeph Thomas and two second half goals from Brad Grayson saw the Blues comfortably defeat Sutton Coldfield Town.

Thomas scored from the spot in the 35th minute after Tyler Williams had been brought down whilst Grayson followed up a Jacob Hazel shot in the 60th minute to double the Blues’ lead, and added another with a well executed finish on 70 minutes.

Grayson went close in only the fifth minute but his header from six yards was diverted away from goal by Matthews for a corner.

Joel Kettle came agonisingly close to knocking the ball into his own net from 15 yards six minutes later as he cut out a Thomas cross that was


aimed for Hazel.

On 27 minutes Sutton’s Malcolm Melvin forced Sebastian Malkowski into his first save of the game, collecting his shot from 18 yards.

Eight minutes later the Blues took the lead as Williams was bundled over inside the box by Milton Loureiro and Thomas stepped up to confidently send Wren the wrong way from the penalty spot.

Sutton responded just before the break with Kyle Bryant hitting a dipping 20 yard volley over the bar after a deep free-kick had been headed clear.

The Blues soon settled and Williams sent Hazel down the left on 53 minutes with him firing in a low angled shot which Wren deflected into the path of the onrushing Thomas who could only lift the ball over from three yards.

Malkowski saved well from Goddard on56 minutes before the Blues doubled their lead on the hour mark.

Williams played Hazel into space on the left of the box and his shot from a tight angle came back off the post for Grayson to react quickest from eight yards.

Grayson extended the Blues lead further when he controlled a cross-field pass from Williams on his chest to take the ball inside the box and lash an angled shot past Wren and into the roof of the net from 8 yards.

The win saw the Blues cement their mid-table position, moving up to 12th.
