Pearson kind of went away from the car, retrieved machete-style knife from his vehicle, and then began to approach the victim again." The victim ran into the gas station and was followed by Pearson. "At one point Pearson strikes the victim in the head with the machete, but the non-blade side of the machete so the victim didn't sustain a cut at that point." Pearson then left the building and allegedly began rifling through the victim's vehicle in the parking lot, and another struggle ensued when the victim confronted him. Pearson is being held in the Monroe County Jail without bail. He is scheduled to appear at 11 a.m. Friday in Greece Town Court. - (Black-on-white)

Police have released a CCTV still of a man wanted in connection with an acid attack on five teenagers as they waited for a train. He is alleged to have been part of a group that squirted corrosive liquid over the boys before jumping on a train and making his getaway. The man is described as black, with dark hair and wearing a jet black North Face gilet. The terrifying incident took place shortly after 12.40am on Sunday, when the man dismounted a train travelling towards Barking at Ockendon station, Essex. He approached the five victims who were waiting on the platform where he held one of his hands behind his back. After a brief dialog withthem, he removed his hand from behind his back exposing a bottle. He then squirted an unknown liquid over the victims. The man re-joined his group of roughly nine friends on the 11.44pm Southend to Barking service. - (Black-on-white) - (UK)

(Black) Father sought after boy killed in mother's arms in St. LouisAn 8-month-old boy was shot to death in his mother's arms Tuesday, and the suspected shooter - the boy's father - remained at large, St. Louis police said. The deadly shooting occurred shortly after 1 p.m. by an Interstate 270 exit ramp near the city limits, St. Louis Police Chief Sam Dotson said. The baby, Reign Crockett, was shot once as his mother attempted to escape a slowing car in which two other young sons were passengers,


Dotson said. Police believe Diata R. Crockett, 34, was aiming at the mother, Dotson said. The victim's brothers, ages 2 and 3, were found unharmed several hours later at a family member's home in the St. Louis suburb of Bellefontaine Neighbors, near Ferguson. The mother flagged down a passing motorist who drove her and the infant to an area hospital as Crockett pursued them, Dotson said.

The question is posed by these facts. LaRue was continuously in the employ of respondent from September, 1946, until her discharge in February of 1965 — 19 years — longer than any other female employee. From the time the union began organizing respondent's employees, LaRue became an active union "protagonist."1 She was a "zealous and aggressive Union advocate * * * an ardent Union Supporter." (155 NLRB No. 17.)1 The union won a Board-conducted election and was certified on December 18, 1964, as the


employees' bargaining representative. LaRue was elected as a union trustee. She became a member of the union's negotiating committee and attended three bargaining sessions prior to her discharge. She continued to be active on the negotiating committee after her unlawful discharge on February 2, 1965, and attended all the bargaining sessions she was notified about; probably all. She considered herself an "officer of the union." On February 8, 1965, the union filed with the Board a charge regarding her discharge, which resulted in the Board's order of October 11, 1965, and this Court's consent order of June 2, 1966. On April 6, 1965, the union called a strike and maintained a picket line at the plant for about three months. During the strike, negotiations continued for some fewmonths at least and Mrs. LaRue continued to sit on the committee. In July a Summit County (Ohio) Common Pleas Court injunction issued limiting the pickets; the injunction was violated; contempt proceedings followed (not involving Mrs. LaRue as far as the record before us indicates) and, also in July, the State Court "removed all the pickets." During the three months' picketing period (April — July, 1965) LaRue walked the picket line "every other day." The strike has never been formally terminated by the union, so that the "call" remained in effect during the entire period in question (April — December, 1965) and LaRue was a union member and trustee during that time. On December 16, 1965, shortly after the Board's basic order issued, respondent recalled LaRue and she


About the branch

The Cedar Lake Branch of Lake County Public Library is known for its spacious, beautiful building, which opened to the public in May of 2006. At 20,000 square feet, this new building is the third largest branch in the library system and is located just to the east of the high school from the Hanover School Corporation on West 133rd Ave. We have three private study rooms and a public meeting room that can accommodate up to 100 people. Every month we hold many preschool, toddler, infant, family and adult classes and events. From computer classes, to arts and crafts, to game night, we've got something for everyone, no matter your age!Russell was 26-of-38 passing for 295 yards and a touchdown, while his backup Dak Prescott threw one pass for a 9-yard touchdown that put the Bulldogs ahead 7-0.

Russell was sacked twice with the Bulldogs in the LSU redzone, and threw the interception to Loston from the LSU 9-yard line.

Russell's favorite target was Chad Bumphis who had 140 yards on nine catches including a 14-yard touchdown that pulled Mississippi State within three, 20-13, in the third quarter. Chris Smith caught seven passes for 56 yards while Arceto Clark added 43 yards on four catches.

Mississippi State was outgained, 392-351.

Mississippi State won the toss and deferred its decision to the second half, as the Bulldogs kicked off from the south to the north.

A short return by Michael Ford left LSU with


a long field at its 16, where Hill ran for two first downs out to the LSU 40. However, the Tigers dodged a bullet when Mettenberger was sacked for the only time in the half, fumbled and offensive tackle Vadal Alexander recovered at the 28. Despite a 17-yard pass to Landry, LSU couldn't overcome the yardage and punted.

Brad Wing's 29-yard punt was downed at the MSU 26, where Russell took over. The junior used a 20-yard completion to Smith and a 14 yarder to Robert Johnson on third down to advance to the LSU 35. On first-and-goal from the 9, Prescott took the snap in shotgun, faked a handoff and tossed a touchdown to tight end Marcus Green. With 6:41 remaining in the first quarter, the Bulldogs led,7-0.

On the ensuing kickoff, Ford put the Tigers in much better position with a 41-yard return. Shepard gained a first down with an 11-yard run to the Bulldogs 44 and Landry earned a third-down conversion with a 6-yard reception to the 32. Shepard and Hill runs combined to gain another first down, but Kenny Hilliard's first carry came up one yard short of a first down and the Tigers settled for a 28-yard field goal by Drew Alleman.

With 11 seconds remaining in the opening quarter, LSU trailed 7-3.

A three-and-out by Mississippi State at the beginning of the second quarter gave the Tigers possession at its 23, where Mettenberger connected with Landry for 26 yards to the LSU 49. A 2-yard run on third down by Ware gave the


Tigers another first down to the MSU 40. Mettenberger converted another third down with a 10-yard pass to Landry, and Ware ran for 12 yards to the 12. Again, LSU's drive stalled in the redzone when a pass in the endzone to Landry was batted away.

Alleman entered for a 26-yard field goal that cut the deficit to 7-6 with 7:59 left in the half.

Mississippi State's Jameon Lewis bobbled the kickoff return at the goalline but made it out to the 15. Two plays later, running back Derrick Milton fumbled the handoff and Barrow recovered at the Bulldogs 25 to give LSU momentum that lasted the rest of the half.

On third-and-8 from the 19, Mettenberger flipped the turnover into points, tossing a pass over a defender into the waitingarms of Landry in the back of the endzone. LSU took the lead, 13-7.

Mississippi State used a nine-play, 45-yard drive to tack on a 47-yard field goal with 48 seconds remaining in the half. LSU declined a holding penalty on third-and-9 from at its 30 to give the Bulldogs a shot at the 47-yarder, but placekicker Devon Bell - who had missed three of his past four tries - nailed the kick into a stiff breeze.

Leading 13-10, LSU wasn't finished in the half. With 48 seconds left, Mettenberger completed a 15-yard pass to Landry to the LSU 44 and then found James Wright behind the defense for 36 yards to the Mississippi State 20. On second-and-10, Mettenberger zipped a perfectly thrown wheel route to Ware for a touchdown.

After


attempt.

Alleman made his third of the night from 41 yards to put LSU ahead 23-16 with 8:29 left in the quarter.

Mississippi State converted one first down - by the nose of the ball - before Bennie Logan and Lamin Barrow smothered Russell for no gain on third-and-2 just inside LSU territory. The Bulldogs punt sailed into the endzone and LSU took over.

Passes of 22 and 8-yards to Beckham Jr. started the drive and put LSU at midfield. Despite recovering his own fumble, Landry converted a third-and-7 with a catch to the Bulldogs 36. On second down, a screen to Ford caught the Bulldogs off guard, and the 27-yard gain gave LSU first-and-goal at the 4. Copeland's 1-yard touchdown run on third down pushed the advantage to 30-17 with11 seconds left in the quarter.

Mississippi State's chance to get within a score was spoiled consecutive sacks by LSU defensive ends Sam Montgomery and Barkevious Mingo deep in LSU territory - the second of which turned the ball over on downs.

In the final six minutes, the Bulldogs again drove deep into LSU territory to the 4 but were backed up to the 9 by a false start. On second-and-goal, Russell's pass was intercepted at the goalline and returned an NCAA-record 100 yards for a touchdown. The return also tied Greg Jackson (1988 vs. Mississippi State) and White Graves (vs. Kentucky in 1964) for the LSU record.

With 1:13 remaining, LSU led by the final margin.

between interventions was found in 7 of 10 clusters with a shared composite outcome. Agreement was reduced when single outcomes were considered. Despite substantial variation and limited agreement in reporting of major outcomes, SRs agreed in their conclusions on the superiority of either the intervention or control in 14 of 16 clusters. Sources of minor discrepancies were found in terms of study and outcome selection, subgroup analyses, and interpretation of findings. Multiple SRs agreed in their qualitative conclusions but not on reporting and on analyses of hard outcomes. Discordance on significance of treatment effects was due to a combination of variation in design with inclusion of different studies and lack of precision for single hard outcomes compared with a composite outcome.

A facebow is used in conjunction with a bite fork and transfer jig to orient the molds made of a person's upper and lower tooth structures on a dental articulator. The molds are positioned in an articulator for analysis of the person's bite. The facebow, transfer jig and bite fork help properly position the molds in the articulator to replicate the person's bite. The alignment of the bite fork in the person's mouth is important to insure the proper orientation of the molds in the dental articulator. The facebow helps properly orient the bite fork.
As is known in the art, the bite fork is adjustably attached to the transfer jig, and the transfer jig is fixed to the facebow. The first two reference points are created by theof the patient. The location of the reference point is typically noted by a mark, such as an ink mark, on the patients face.
To align the facebow with the third point of reference, the facebow is positioned on the patient's face, with the transfer jig attached to the facebow. The third point of reference is obtained by aligning the facebow with the anterior reference point on the patient's face. The facebow is moved through a vertical arc in front of the patient's face, pivoting about the engagement of the facebow with the patient's ears.
Typically, the facebow is properly positioned in alignment with the anterior reference point by using a reference pointer which swings inwardly from one of the facebow arms toward the patient's face. The end of the

The detectives observed Alcorn, Washington, and another man disembark from the train.   After entering the station lobby, the three men converged and had a short conversation, after which Washington and the third man left the immediate area.   From the men's behavior, the detectives inferred that they were traveling together but were trying to conceal this fact.   Detective Sola approached Alcorn and asked and received permission to speak with him.   Sola identified himself as a police officerand told Alcorn that he spoke with many people on the eastbound train because it originated in Los Angeles, a source city for cocaine coming into the Midwest.   Sola asked for and received permission to see Alcorn's train ticket and identification.   Alcorn's one-way train ticket from Los Angeles to St. Louis had been paid for in cash, and his driver's license revealed his address to be at 1951 Thoreau Street in Los Angeles.   Detective Sola then asked Alcorn if he could search the handbag and suitcase he had seen Alcorn carry into the station.   Alcorn gave Sola permission to search the handbag;  he denied that the suitcase belonged to him.   Sola found no contraband in the handbag.

Sola, who had noticed Washington staring at him, approached Washington and asked to speak with him.   Washington agreed.   Sola asked for and received permission to see Washington's ticket and identification.   Washington's one-way ticket from Los Angeles to suburban St. Louis had been paid for in cash, and his driver's license revealed his address to be at 1931 Thoreau Street in Los Angeles.   Detective Sola asked Washington if he knew Alcorn and if they were traveling together.   Washington answered no to both questions.   Detective Sola then asked for and received permission to search Washington's luggage.

As Sola and Washington were moving to a more private area in which to search Washington's luggage, Sola saw Alcorn walking away fromthe area and into the underground parking garage.   Sola followed Alcorn into the garage and asked him to return to the station lobby so that he could speak with him further.   Alcorn agreed to do so.   Before reaching the station lobby, Sola performed a pat-down search of Alcorn for weapons.

Once back inside the station lobby, Sola began his search of Washington's luggage.   The search of Washington's bag revealed a gift-wrapped package, which Washington said was for a friend in St. Louis.

At that point, Washington was placed under arrest and given a Miranda warning.   Detective


honestly so good, and was everything that I had been hoping for throughout the lengthy gap between now, and their debut album: Bad Blood.

Even with a more matured sound, and tackling some contentious and relevant issues, Bastille have continued with the legacy of their anthemic and catchy take on the soft rock/pop genre. Splicing in more electronic backing and instrument focussed composition than their first album, their second LP provides its own set of memorable, emotional and ultimately vulnerable tunes to contend with the stand-outs from Bad Blood.

Another evolution from their outstanding debut album (which receives so much unjust criticism, in my view) is the inclusion of vintage film quotes to enhance the meaning behind each track, and the headspace of Dan Smith. Here’s one from The Currents:

“WhenWest Virginia-Alabama Preview

(AP) - Nick Saban is keeping Alabama's quarterback situation shrouded in as much mystery as possible.

The second-ranked Crimson Tide's coach said that no decision has been made on whether Jake Coker or Blake Sims would start Saturday against West Virginia in Atlanta, or if both would play.

Saban did employ a baseball analogy involving Yankees manager and friend Joe Girardi to indicate that the starter won't be guaranteed of going the distance whatever the plan going into the game.

"I mean, Joe Girardi tells (Masahiro) Tanaka he's starting in the game, he's not telling him he's going to pitch nine innings," Saban said. "Does he tell them that or does he just pitch until he doesn't pitch well anymore?"

Of course, the goal is not to need a bullpen


as the season progresses.

Coker and Sims are vying to replace Heisman Trophy runner-up AJ McCarron, who helped lead the Tide to a pair of national titles. That's the big question facing new Alabama quarterbacks these days: Can he lead the Tide to the title?

Alabama finished 11-2 in 2013, losing to Auburn on a bizarre final play in the regular-season finale and to Oklahoma in the Sugar Bowl.

"Both of those guys are capable of leading us to the national championship," fullback Jalston Fowler said. "We just have to support them and be behind them and make sure they're confident and have that confidence every week no matter who is playing."

Sims has the advantage of experience in Alabama's offense after two seasons as McCarron's backup and one as a runningback. He's still only attempted 39 passes in two seasons and both quarterbacks are working with new offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin.

Coker didn't arrive in Tuscaloosa until May. He transferred from Florida State after last season when Jameis Winston won the Heisman Trophy and led the Seminoles to a national title.

Saban said know-how often comes before confidence - not the other way around.

"We say players play without confidence, but to think that a guy can play with confidence when he doesn't yet have knowledge is almost, like, stupid," Saban said. "A player has to be able to develop knowledge and understanding of what he's supposed to do for him to really have confidence in doing it. Somebody at the quarterback position who is in a new system, terminology and


hoping to prove he's one of the nation's best receivers no matter who is throwing to him. The junior had team highs of 45 catches and 736 yards last season while adding four touchdowns, but he fought through injuries and recorded his only 100-yard games in the final two of the season.

"I don't know if I've had a lot of success," Cooper said. "I don't look at it like I've had a lot of success. I'm always anxious to do more. Break records."

Alabama's defense will be short-handed, as starting linebacker Trey DePriest has been suspended for the opener for what Saban calls a ''minor NCAA infraction.'' The preseason first-team All-SEC pick had 65 tackles last season.

Reuben Foster and Reggie Ragland will start the West Virginia game in Atlantaat inside linebacker.

West Virginia, facing the Tide for the first time, is hoping for some improvement after going 4-8 last season for its first losing record since finishing 3-8 in 2001. Coach Dana Holgorsen could be on the hot seat after two down years since moving to the Big 12.

He named Clint Trickett the starting quarterback despite Trickett throwing seven touchdowns and seven interceptions in 2013. He's also coming off shoulder surgery in the offseason, though Holgorsen is confident Trickett is ready to go.

"We need to stay the course, continue to develop our talent, continue to recruit better, and then we'll win those games," Holgorsen said. "Hopefully we can put a season together that everybody will be proud of."

The Mountaineers' defense ranked ninth in the 10-team Big 12


Gong Hyo-jin is undoubtedly one of the best actresses in South Korea, which makes her a sought-after lead in any Korean drama. But there is one other thing that would make the producers and broadcasters want her in their show—her seven previous dramas all hit double-digit viewer ratings. And with the addition of When The Camellia Blooms, the total is now eight.

When The Camellia Blooms, her latest series, has exceeded the 10 percent mark in ratings on its second week. The September 25 episode of the drama recorded 8.6 and 10.0 percent, while the September 26 broadcast achieved 7.7 and 10.0 percent. In terms of the number of viewers, the record stands at 1.6 million, making When The Camellia Blooms the most-watched primetime drama in both terrestrial andgive the character to anyone else.”

In the series, Gong Hyo-jin is playing the role of Dong Baek (which means Camellia flower in Korean), a single mother who runs a bar to make ends meet. So far, the story focuses on her new life in the countryside where her neighbors treat her as an outcast for being a single mom who sells alcoholic drinks to male customers. Her life is poised to change after she makes friends with a bubbly police officer played by Kang Ha-neul as her first love (Kim Ji-suk) appears again in her life and starts to connect with their son.

In terms of buzz, When The Camellia Blooms is also popular among the local audience. The series ranked fourth in the ranking of the most talked

Calgary, September 4, 2012 – Once again, the Federation of Calgary Communities is engaging communities in the launch of the second wave of the Building Safe Communities pilot project.

The Building Safe Communities program is a crime prevention and safety pilot initiative launching in four additional communities: Chaparral, Hidden Valley, Scenic Acres and Riverbend, with emphasis on crime prevention through community engagement. These communities join the first three Building Safe Communities of Crescent Heights, Rosscarrock and Southwood.

This community engagement program supports both community associations and their residents to develop tools and initiatives that help create safe and caring communities. “This has been an exciting pilot project where neighbours are getting to know neighbours to reduce crime and increase feelings of safety in their neighbourhoods,”


says Leslie Evans, Executive Director of the Federation of Calgary Communities.

The initial communities developed plans to address crime and safety issues in their communities. Their innovative initiatives have included distributing “My Neighbour Cards”, working with the local schools to get involved with the community, community clean ups, open houses, articles in newsletters, and taking back a park by working with City Parks to improve lighting, seating and cleanup. Other initiatives within the park included increased activities, such as BBQs and children’s activities, as well as a Photo Wall! Learnings from these initial communities are being compiled and will be uploaded to the virtual resource centre in the near future.

Building Safe Communities also includes a virtual resource centre housing numerous safety and crime prevention tools such as tip sheets,The Saudi government reportedly relied extensively on covert phone surveillance as part of the murder of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi, according to the New York Times and de Becker's expert consultants. And when the Post (owned by Bezos) started covering Khasoggi's murder in earnest starting October 2018, the Saudis started attacking Bezos and de Becker with organized social media attacks and threatened boycotts.

There's also a "close relationship" between Saudi regent Mohammad bin Salman and AMI chairman David Pecker, according to de Becker. The chairman brought bin Salman's intermediary Kacy Grine to a private meeting with President Trump, while the company also created a magazine to sell bin Salman to the US with Grine's help. The implication, as you might guess, is that Saudi Arabia intended to retaliate

Quantitative CT Assessment of Gynecomastia in the General Population and in Dialysis, Cirrhotic, and Obese Patients.
Gynecomastia is the benign enlargement of the male breast because of proliferation of the glandular component. To date, there is no radiological definition of gynecomastia and no quantitative evaluation of breast glandular tissues in the general male population. The aims of this study were to supply radiological-based measurements of breast glandular tissue in the general male population, to quantitatively assess the prevalence of gynecomastia according to age by decades, and to evaluate associations between gynecomastia and obesity, cirrhosis, and dialysis. This retrospective study included 506 men who presented to the emergency department following trauma and underwent chest-abdominal computed tomography. Also included were 45 patients undergoing hemodialysis and 50 patients with cirrhosis who underwentAnn Oldenburg

The big question: Where is Casey Kasem?

His daughter, Kerri Kasem, thinks he may have "fled the country" or possibly be on "an Indian Reservation."

A judge on Monday ordered an investigation into the whereabouts of the famed radio countdown host, 82. An attorney for Kasem's wife, Jean, told the court that Casey Kasem, who became famous for his weekly American Top 40 radio show and as the voice of Shaggy in the Scooby-Doo cartoon, had been removed from Los Angeles without his children's knowledge. He has advanced Parkinson's and can no longer speak.

Superior Court Judge Daniel S. Murphy ordered a court investigator and adult protective services to find out where Kasem is being treated, reported AP. Kasem has been in various medical facilities chosen by his wife.


Jean Kasem, and Kasem's kids have long been battling over their father.

CNN reports that also on Monday, Kasem's daughter, Kerri Kasem, was named as temporary conservator of her dad.

The conservatorship is in effect until June 20, when a hearing is scheduled on whether to make the conservatorship permanent, according to the Los Angeles County Superior Court spokeswoman Patricia Kelly.

"Justice was finally served! I just won temporary conservatorship over my father's healthcare. We have been vindicated by the court. Thank you for your prayers, well wishes and support through this entire ordeal," Kasem's daughter, Kerri Kasem, posted on her Facebook page soon after the order.

Later, she added: "I believe my father's wife fled the country (or possibly went to an Indian Reservation) with my Dad because she knew INEW YORK (Reuters) - A sitting U.S. governor and a congressman will be among the four candidates left off the stage when the Democratic Party holds its pivotal first debate in Miami later this month.

The Democratic National Committee announced on Thursday the list of 20 presidential candidates who qualified to participate in the debate.

The decision deals a blow to the candidates who will be omitted: Montana Governor Steve Bullock, U.S. Representative Seth Moulton of Massachusetts, former U.S. Senator Mike Gravel, and Wayne Messam, the mayor of Miramar, Florida.

The debates, held over two nights on June 26 and June 27, will offer a sprawling Democratic field its first close-up with Americans and allow candidates who have trailed in opinion polls the opportunity for a poll-boosting viral moment.

The 20 qualifying


candidates will be randomly divided between the two nights in a way that ensures top-polling candidates will be spread evenly between both debates. The drawing is expected to take place on Friday in New York.

Candidates qualified for the debates by receiving at least 1% in three polls, or by receiving donations from 65,000 supporters, including at least 200 donors apiece in 20 states.

In most years, the list of candidates to participate in a presidential debate would not garner much attention. But the historically large field of 24 candidates forced the Democratic Party to establish rules to limit participation and make the debates less unwieldy - and forced a mad dash from bottom-tier candidates to meet the requirements.

1974: Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) headquarters is bombed. MHI is located in Minato, Tokyo, Japan and was founded in 1934. They are involved in aerospace, defense, energy, shipbuilding, and wind power. They build several different types of aircraft, rockets, and spacecraft as well as ships from large cruise ships to ferries, tankers, and warships. They also build turbines for both fossil fuels and wind generation of energy and a host of other products. This multi-billion dollar corporation sprang from an earlier business started at the behest of the Tokugawa Shogunate, the last shogunate before the Meiji restoration. They began with shipbuilding and then spread out to other areas of heavy manufacturing.

The East Asia Anti-Japan Armed Front (EAAJAF) sprang up from the Hosei University history department. In 1970,


masses with the idea of staunch anti-Japaneseism, a radicalized version of anti-Japanism. The group decided to bomb three different sites which they felt were particularly representative of Japan’s participation in World War II. In December 1971 and in April and October of 1972 they carried out small bombing attacks and then opted to initiate a full-blown terrorist attack.

The EAAJAF was too broad and individual names were given to each smaller cell. Daidoji’s team was named “Wolf’ to express their “proud independence”. They used 1973 to perfect their bombs, grow their war chest, and create propaganda materials. On August 14, 1974 they tried to blow up a bridge over which the Emperor’s train was traveling.

Nadezhda did not expect to be dropped into this competition, but took it very seriously after entering, leaving with silverware from what has been a tougher season than expected. Lattes Montpellier was dominant throughout the competition, but finally met their match when teams parachuted in from EuroLeague.

The first of the championship series was played in Orenburg on Wednesday. Nadezhda was in the middle of a four game in seven day stretch as they chased trophies on multiple fronts. Lattes Montpellier had the better start and then maintained their lead to win 75-71, which will leave them in advantageous position when they host the last game in a week, but they will be wary of the threat posed by a team that should bea large knife.

‘RICHARD III’

The biggest, brashest — and the longest — is La Piccola Familia’s production of founder and director Thomas Jolly’s Richard III at the National Theater, the final play in this year’s Taiwan International Festival of Arts.

The 36-year-old Jolly has been making a name for himself at home in France with his unabridged and avant-garde takes on William Shakespeare’s three Henry VI plays, including a marathon staging of all three plays at the Festival d’Avignon, in 2014 that lasted 18 hours.

The following year saw the premiere of his Richard III, the final installment of Shakespeare’s first tetralogy of English history and one of the Bard’s longest works.

Jolly’s production, in which he stars as the ambitious and Machiavellian Richard, duke of Gloucester, who battles his way to thethrone by killing all family members and others who stand in his way, lasts about four-and-a-half hours, including a 30-minute intermission.

Jolly, who is also credited as the designer, has staged it as a Goth rock concert, filled with black costumes and whiteface make-up; the final performance of a doomed star.

Richard III will be performed in French with Chinese surtitles, and comes with an advisory about the smoke, lighting effects and blood.

‘PICNIC ON THE BATTLEFIELD’

Upstairs in the National Experimental Theater will be a show about a different war and a different kind of family.

Many of Arrabal’s works were centered on the horrors of fascism and World War II.

Picnic is about a rather clueless young soldier left on his own in the trenches, whose overbearing parents decide to visit to


cheer him up with a picnic, despite the ongoing firefight. The family gathering is interrupted by the arrival of an equally clueless enemy soldier that no one quite knows what to do with.

Hung was invited in 2015 to join directors from Japan, South Korea and China in directing versions of Picnic for the annual Asian Theater Directors’ Festival in Toga, Japan. It was the first time Dark Eyes Lab was invited to perform overseas.

Hung and his troupe set their play in Asia, and make one of the soldiers Taiwanese and the other Okinawan, which allowed them to tackle issues raised by Japan’s colonial rule of Taiwan as well.

The company offered a three-tier ticket plan, with the limited number of top-priced tickets coming with picnic foods and floor seatingon picnic mats. Those options have already sold out.

‘THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK’

Over at Huashan 1914 Creative Park, the Butterfly Effect Theatre Company will also immerse its audiences in wartime horrors and family dynamics, with Wendy Kesselman’s version of The Diary of Anne Frank.

The company premiered the production at The LAB Space at the beginning of December last year, but the five shows sold out weeks in advance and drew a lot of interest from local schools, prompting director Brook Hall to look for a bigger venue where he could stage additional performances.

Given the often appalling ignorance in Taiwan of the horrors of the Holocaust and the Nazi’s Third Reich, as demonstrated in recent years by use of Nazi-themed costumes for a high-school cosplay event, the use of


originally adapted Frank’s Diary of a Young Girl for the stage in 1955.

The multinational cast from the December production will reprise their roles, led by Taipei American School middle-school student Camryn Rowe as Anne, and Butterfly Effect stalwarts D.C. Rapier and Sarah Brooks as her parents.

The show will be performed in English, with Chinese surtitles.

While Hall has put on plays before at other Huashan sites, the Anne Frank tale offers his company a chance to demonstrate that it can handle an expanded run in a bigger venue, as well as a chance to move beyond its Taipei-base.

A connection midpoint between the coil 121a of the orthogonal transformer 121A and the capacitor 122a is connected to the negative electrode of the DC power supply 101 via a series circuit consisting of a capacitor 110a, a discharge lamp 111a, and a current detecting resistor 123a of a control circuit 123A, and an output signal of the control circuit


decreasing the impedance of the series resonant circuit 120A at a driving frequency consequently resulting in an increase of a voltage generated between the both ends of the capacitor 122a, and such that, when the current of the discharge lamp 111a is to be decreased, the control current of the control coil 121b of the orthogonal transformer 121A is decreased so as to increase the inductance value of the coil 121a of the orthogonal transformer 121A thereby decreasing the resonant frequency f0 of the series resonant circuit 120A thus increasing the impedance of the series resonant circuit 120A at a driving frequency consequently resulting in a decrease of a voltage generated between the both ends of the capacitor 122a.

oh so witty reference that uses a situation on "Star Trek" as an analogy. There have been books and academic papers on the sociological impact of the show as a collective myth. There is something "special" about its rose-colored future. Where Odysseus & Hercules served as myths of the past, it's been argued the staying power of "Star Trek" is that it serves as a shared myth of the future which expresses everyone's hopes for everything that will be.

Almost any situation in life can probably be explained by an episode of "Star Trek." The new film, 'Star Trek Into Darkness,' is reportedly an allegory for terrorism. 'Into Darkness' features Benedict Cumberbatch (best known as Sherlock Holmes in BBC's "Sherlock") as John Harrison. However, there's been much speculation, aswell as fan theories over whether John Harrison is the character's real name & his true nature.

Is he Khan? Is he Gary Mitchell? For now, he's John Harrison — and beyond that "name," the only thing we really know about Benedict Cumberbatch's "Star Trek Into Darkness" villain is that he is a ruthless and effective terrorist... "[Look at] real social history and present history, everything that's going on: uprisings, people who are trying to spread democracy or fight their cause, not necessarily through political means ... he is a terrorist, and sadly, that's part of the fabric of our modern world," he explained to MTV when we spoke at a "Star Trek" event in late 2012. "You don't need to look far to research that one." Cumberbatch continued,


saying he looked towards "certain terrorist groups in the past" to see how they operated. But he wasn't only concerned with real-life terrorism. The actor emphasized the importance of turning towards his character's roots within the "Star Trek" universe itself, saying, "It was important to me to ground him in a reality that's based more on his story than, say, a parallel in the real world." "What should certainly be chilling are the parallels to the modern world," he added cryptically.

The Mennonite Welfare Board (Mennonite Church) of Ontario was organized in 1939 by the Ontario Conference as a board under which the Poor and Charity Funds administered by various committees were brought under the administration of the deacon body of the conference. Its purpose was to see that the welfare needs were met equally among the churches. Each deacon presented the needs of both laymen and ministers for his congregation. A levy of 15-30 cents was sufficient as dues per member. The Board met in September and in March. Special needs could be cared for by the Executive Committee between regular meetings. The Board contributed funds for needy Mennonites in the Braeside Home for the Aged in Preston. Considerable income was derived from endowment sources.

Irene Adler, one of the most revered female characters in the Sherlock Holmes stories, will begin her three-episode arc on Thursday, May 9 (10/9c), leading into the two-hour season finale on May 16. On Elementary, Sherlock (Jonny Lee Miller) had discovered that she died at the hands of "M," which led him to nearly kill Sebastian Moran (Vinnie Jones) before discovering that his employer Moriarty was behind her heinous murder. Her death was the catalyst for Sherlock's downward spiral into drug addiction.

"Irene Adler is perhaps the most pivotal relationship in Sherlock's life, and I can't think of an actress better suited toDemocrats are partially to blame for the climate and policies they deplore.

"A different America shows up when we vote for president and when we vote in midterm elections," Clinton said, pointing to the fact that groups including young voters and minorities are underrepresented in the mid-term electorate compared with the turnout in years when the president is on the ballot.

In his 15-minute speech, Clinton lauded Wolf for returning to his home town after finishing his Ph.D. at MIT. He also praised the Wolf proposal to impose a new severance tax on natural gas.

Referring to his own experience as a governor of a natural gas-producing state —Arkansas — Clinton argued it makes sense to take revenue from a depleting resource and put it into education, a resource he said


would keep on giving to the community.

Clinton took a moment to praise the late Pittsburgh Mayor Sophie Masloff.

"I loved her and she served you well," he said.

Clinton joined a parade of high-profile Democrats prodding turnout in a race in which Wolf has enjoyed a consistent polling lead. First lady Michelle Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton made separate appearances for the Wolf campaign earlier this month in Philadelphia. President Barack Obama plans to add his weight to the turnout push in yet another Philadelphia rally Sunday.

While the South Side crowd awaited the Democratic icon, Corbett was making the case for his re-election in an appearance before the Pennsylvania Press Club in Harrisburg.

BRO launches 61 border roads

In a bid to match infra deficit in areas bordering China, the Border Roads Organisation has been entrusted with building 61 roads with stepped up pace of work in the border belt and several critical high altitude linking project would be completed well before the 2020-21 deadline. Though the completion time-frame for most of the roads is 2021, many will be ready earlier as enhanced financial powers given to the organisation recently begin to show results on the ground. The construction of India-China roads has already seen a marked improvement in the past two-three years with the speed increasing from 107 km in 2014-15 to 147 km in 2016-17. Similarly, progress on surfacing roads has also increased from 174 km to 233 kmin 2016-17 despite the heights and hard rock stretches. The improved pace, given a limited working season of four to six months, is particularly noticeable on roads where the government accorded special dispensation considering the hostile work environment. As of now, against 3,400 km of 61 India-China roads under the BRO's charge, just 270 km of formation cutting remains to achieve 100% connectivity — meaning road building can begin from both ends of the project.


Plastic manhole covers could be installed on roads in Somerset – to stop them from being stolen.

‘Anti-skid’ covers are to be trialled in North Somerset after scores of metal ones were stolen earlier this year.

A total of 19 manhole and drain covers, made out of wrought iron and worth thousands of pounds, were stolen from across the district in only 48 hours in March.

Five covers were taken from the village of Kewstoke, three in Dundry and two in Backwell. Covers were also stolen from Kenn Road in Clevedon.

The manholes covers are likely to have been sold as scrap following the lucrative increase in the price of metals, fuelled by unscrupulous dealers in the Far East.

For the second straight season, the Seattle Seahawks are spending the first two weeks of the regular season wondering how an offense with the likes of Russell Wilson, Doug Baldwin and Jimmy Graham has only found the end zone once in two games.

New San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan would simply like to see his team score a touchdown after getting held out of the end zone again in a 12-9 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

It was as ugly as it sounds. After more than 112 minutes of game action, the Seahawks finally scored their first touchdown of the season on Wilson's 9-yard strike to Paul Richardson with 7:06 remaining to take the lead for good. And it took some magical...

Acclaimed filmmaker Quentin Tarantino was none too thrilled when the script for his eighth film, The Hateful Eight, leaked onto the internet earlier this year. Nevertheless, the film is starting to come together in time for its scheduled release next year. We saw the film's first movie poster just last month, and now we're getting a taste of the film courtesy of a brief teaser trailer screened ahead of Sin City: A Dame to Kill For.

Unfortunately the trailer hasn't been officially posted online, but you can get a look via a cellphone-shot YouTube video. The teaser is graphical — it doesn't contain even a second of shot footage — but that's to be expected considering shooting has yet to begin. True to Tarantino's cinephile roots, the trailer imploresIn the US in the early 2000’s, a young Indonesian wine collector named Rudy Kurniawan began making a name for himself. Apparently blessed with an incredible palate, and supported by a wealthy family background (he once boasted his annual allowance was a million dollars), Kurniawan bought huge amounts of fine and rare wines, and became a friend to several serious wine collectors, such as TV director Jef Levy, and retired businessman Bill Koch. His knowledge and appreciation of wine brought him a degree of fame that stood him in good stead when he began selling his own wines in the middle of the decade. Through the auction firm, Acker, Merral & Condit, in 2006 alone, wines from Kurniawan’s personal collection sold for over $35 million. But in 2008,


for doing it; an excellent case of Buyer Beware, there’s a measure of humour to be found when we discover that Kurniawan did most of his counterfeiting in the kitchen of his home in Arcadia, California, and a sense of amazement when the potential source, and scale, of his wealth is revealed late on.

If you've followed this year's presidential primary debates or town halls, you've seen moms everywhere on the campaign trail.

From volunteers with Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, who have been a visible force at primary events, asking all candidates how they will address the gun violence crisis that kills 91 Americans a day, to the Mothers of the Movement, African-American moms on the campaign trail with Hillary Clinton, many of whose children were killed by gun violence.

Hillary has made mothers fighting for gun sense a key part


of her policy platform.

And that's why, after months of asking tough questions and carefully considering the positions of all candidates, Moms Demand Action and Everytown for Gun Safety endorsed Hillary Clinton for president. We are the country's largest gun violence prevention group with more than three million supporters -- and we're with her.

Hillary is the only candidate who has consistently stood on the side of gun safety. She's the only candidate has stood with gun violence survivors. And she's the only candidate who has shown the backbone to stand up to the gun lobby's extreme "guns everywhere" agenda.

In November, moms and women will elect Hillary Clinton as the first gun sense president. We will prove that gun safety is a winning issue because Americans, particularly women, demand it.

Volunteerssomeone SUCCEEDS in their aims, it's unique and special.

Case in point: Monarch deliberately rigging his battle with JJ to give him an escape clause that lets him attack Rusty. SCORE! It's funny, but the one character who's had the most success overall in this series is the Monarch. Consider:

* He broke into the compound during the tag sale and had his way with the place. Granted, he got depressed and lost interest, but he did it.

* He repaired his rocky relationship and actually got married, and in the process earned his spot in the Guild. Arguably that's just so they can keep a closer eye on him through his wife, but he still managed it.

* He stole a microexplosive and planted it on Rusty in such a way


as to frame his old enemy Hatred for breaking a Guild rule against killing your archenemy. If not for the water, it would've worked.

* He broke into the compound AGAIN entirely on a whim and.. raped a security robot, AND tricked Dean into covering for him.

* Finally, in this episode, he uses his own reputation for failure and clever use of his henchmen to worm his successfully trick JJ and worm his way back into Rusty's life.

Obviously I'm a bit of a fanboy, but whenever anybody in this series makes any headway in their miserable lives of disaster and disappointment, it's kind of a high five. And I think that's by design; throwing us a bone now and then is tastier than having steak every day.

This episode wasquestion the correctness of those decisions. We believe that Sheriff Peterson in his official capacity is an agent for the State of Georgia, not Clinch County, when performing his law enforcement duties as to use of force, and is protected by Eleventh Amendment immunity.

I. BACKGROUND

A. Facts

4
Clinch County, Georgia, is a small rural county with a population of approximately 6,000. As the elected Sheriff, the defendant Winston Peterson ("Sheriff Peterson") is responsible for the operation of the jail in Clinch County, for establishing the policies and procedures at the jail, and for hiring, training, and supervising his deputies who work in the jail. Sheriff Peterson's deputy and chief jailer was the defendant Alan Brown.

5
On May 18, 1997, police officers from the City of Homerville arrested the plaintiff Willie Santonio


Manders ("Manders") and transported him to the jail. As Manders was being escorted into the holding cell at the jail, one of the City police officers stated that Manders had "hit him" earlier.1 According to Manders, deputy Brown and a City police officer then repeatedly struck him across the head, neck, and face and banged his head against a wall. Manders suffered from a bruised, swollen face, and the beating affected him emotionally, eventually leading to a stay in a mental hospital.

6
The morning after the beating, Manders wrote a statement for jail officials, wherein he stated, "They had to be rough with me to let me know that they mean business." In his deposition, Manders testified that Sheriff Peterson and some other officer forced him to write thisstatement. That same day Manders was released from jail. Afterwards, Manders's mother met with Sheriff Peterson to discuss the beating of her son. According to Manders's mother, Sheriff Peterson responded to her concerns about the beating as follows: "[T]hat happens sometimes when they bite and scratch." Sheriff Peterson did not investigate the beating incident.

7
Manders also introduced into evidence the Policy and Procedural Manual (the "Manual") of the Clinch County Sheriff's Department. In his deposition, Sheriff Peterson testified that he published the Manual in either 1989 or 1990, drafting some of the policies himself and adopting some state policies. The Manual requires that "[e]ach case involving physical or defensive force be reported in writing to the Sheriff," as follows:

8
(A) Notification of Supervisor

9
1. The Sheriff shall be immediately informed of


each incident involving the use of force by officers of this Department. Such notification shall be on the same date of the incident.

10
2. Each case involving physical or defensive force shall be reported in writing to the Sheriff.

11
3. Each officer present or assisting in an arrest or incident requiring force shall be prepared to submit a report supplement describing the incident if requested.

12
Deputy Brown, however, never submitted a written report indicating he used force with Manders, and Sheriff Peterson never required deputy Brown to do so even after having met with Manders's mother.

13
In addition to the report requirement, the Manual discusses both non-deadly and deadly force by an officer in the performance of his duties. The Manual provides that non-deadly force may be used by an officer inGeorgia, and Sheriff Peterson in his official capacity.2 The amended complaint asserted that at the time of the acts complained of, the defendant Peterson was acting both individually and as an agent of and representative of Clinch County and was operating under the color of state law.

20
In his amended complaint, Manders further claims that Clinch County and Sheriff Peterson were responsible for establishing policies regarding the use of force at the jail and for implementing those policies by training, monitoring, and disciplining deputies to ensure that the use-of-force policies were followed. According to Manders, deputy Brown beat him, and Clinch County and Sheriff Peterson permitted deputy Brown's use of excessive force. Manders also asserts that Clinch County and Sheriff Peterson failed to provide deputies proper training and oversight


summary judgment to the defendants.

24
The district court, however, denied summary judgment with respect to the use-of-force policy claims under § 1983 against Clinch County and Sheriff Peterson in his official capacity. Although Clinch County did not appeal, Sheriff Peterson did. Before appealing, Sheriff Peterson in his official capacity filed a motion for reconsideration, emphasizing that he was a state, not a county, official when performing his law enforcement duties and was entitled to Eleventh Amendment immunity. After the district court denied his motion, Sheriff Peterson timely filed this interlocutory appeal.4

II. PRIOR PANEL PRECEDENT CONTROLS

A. Question Presented

25
This appeal is by only Sheriff Peterson in his official capacity and involves only Manders's § 1983 claims regarding Sheriff Peterson's law enforcement duties and policies as to use of force and hisclear distinction between a political subdivision such as a county and a corporate body such as a hospital authority, which is a creation of the county"). Unlike hospital authorities though, the sheriff's office is not a corporate body but a constitution ally-elected office under the state Constitution, and Georgia courts have concluded sovereign immunity protects Georgia sheriffs in their official capacities. In addition, the parties here have not made the contention, nor have they cited any authority indicating, that the sheriff's department is a separate corporate body or even a separate legal entity capable of being sued under Georgia law.38

75
To some extent, Sheriff Peterson's adoption of use-of-force policies, his daily operation of the jail, and his supervision and discipline of deputies as to use of force are all


"On Oct. 22, dispatch received a 911 call at approximately 4 p.m. of what was believed to be an assault and rape," Union County Sheriff Investigator Staff Sgt. Darren Osborn told the newspaper. "It was being viewed via Skype. Deputies responded and I responded as well."In July 1874, Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer led a thousand-man expedition into the Black Hills, in present-day South Dakota. He was under orders to scout a suitable site for a military post, a mission personally approved by President Ulysses S. Grant, but he also brought along two prospectors, outfitted at his expense. Although largely unexplored by whites, the Black Hills were long rumored to be rich in gold, and Custer’s prospectors discovered what he reported as “paying quantities” of the precious metal. A correspondent for the Chicago Inter Ocean who accompanied the expedition was less restrained in his dispatch: “From the grass roots down it was ‘pay dirt.’” Taking him at his word, the nation’s press whipped up a frenzy over a “new El Dorado” in the


American West.

The United States was going into the second year of a crippling economic depression, and the nation desperately needed a financial lift. Within a year of Custer’s discovery, more than a thousand miners had streamed into the Black Hills. Soon Western newspapers and Western congressmen were demanding that Grant annex the land.

There was one problem: The Black Hills belonged to the Lakota Indians, the most potent Indian power on the Great Plains. They had taken the territory from the Kiowas and the Crows, and they had signed a treaty with the United States guaranteeing their rights to the region. The Lakotas most esteemed the Paha Sapa (literally, “hills that areblack”) not for their mystic aura, as is commonly assumed, but for their material bounty. The hills were their meat locker, a game reserve to be tapped in times of hunger.

The outcry for annexation brought Grant to a crossroads. He had taken office in 1869 on a pledge to keep the West free of war. “Our dealings with the Indians properly lay us open to charges of cruelty and swindling,” he had said, and he had staked his administration to a Peace Policy intended to assimilate Plains nations into white civilization. Now, Grant was forced to choose between the electorate and the Indians.

He had no legal reason for seizing the Black Hills, so he invented one, convening a secret White House cabal to plan a war against the


Lakotas. Four documents, held at the Library of Congress and the United States Military Academy Library, leave no doubt: The Grant administration launched an illegal war and then lied to Congress and the American people about it. The episode hasn’t been examined outside the specialty literature on the Plains wars.

During four decades of intermittent warfare on the Plains, this was the only instance in which the government deliberately provoked a conflict of this magnitude, and it ultimately led to the Army’s shocking defeat at the Little Bighorn in 1876—and to litigation that remains unsettled to this day. Few observers suspected the plot at the time, and it was soon forgotten.

For most of the 20th century, historians dismissed the Grant administration as a haven for corrupt hacks, even asthe integrity of the man himself remained unquestioned. More recent Grant biographers have worked hard to rehabilitate his presidency, and they have generally extolled his treatment of Indians. But they have either misinterpreted the beginnings of the Lakota war or ignored them altogether, making it appear that Grant was blameless in the greatest single Indian war waged in the West.

Throughout his military career, Grant was known as an aggressive commander, but not a warmonger. In his Personal Memoirs, he damned the Mexican War, in which he had fought, as “one of the most unjust ever waged by a stronger against a weaker nation,” and he excoriated the Polk administration’s machinations leading to hostilities: “We were sent to provoke a fight, but it was essential that Mexico should commence


it.” And yet in dealing with the Lakotas, he acted just as treacherously.

**********

The treaty between the Lakotas and the United States had been signed at Fort Laramie in 1868, the year before Grant took office. “From this day forward,” the document began, “all war between the parties to this agreement shall forever cease.”

Under the Fort Laramie Treaty, the United States designated all of present-day South Dakota west of the Missouri River, including the Black Hills, as the Great Sioux Reservation, for the Lakotas’ “absolute and undisturbed use and occupation.” The treaty also reserved much of present-day northeastern Wyoming and southeastern Montana as Unceded Indian Territory, off-limits to whites without the Lakotas’ consent. To entice Lakotas onto the reservation and into farming, the United States promised to give themwas permitted under the treaty. Searching for gold was not.

As the pressure rose on Grant to annex the Black Hills, his first resort was rough diplomacy. In May 1875, a delegation of Lakota chiefs came to the White House to protest shortages of government rations and the predations of a corrupt Indian agent. Grant seized the opportunity. First, he said, the government’s treaty obligation to issue rations had run out and could be revoked; rations continued only because of Washington’s kind feelings toward the Lakotas. Second, he, the Great Father, was powerless to prevent miners from overrunning the Black Hills (which was true enough, given limited Army resources). The Lakotas must either cede the Paha Sapa or lose their rations.

When the chiefs left the White House they were


“all at sea,” their interpreter recalled. For three weeks, they had alternated between discordant encounters with hectoring bureaucrats and bleak hotel-room caucuses among themselves. At last, they broke off the talks and, the New York Herald reported, returned to the reservation “disgusted and not conciliated.”

Meanwhile, miners poured into the Black Hills. The task of running them out fell to Brig. Gen. George Crook, the new commander of the Military Department of the Platte, whose sympathies clearly rested with the miners. Crook evicted many of them that July, in accordance with standing policy, but before they pulled up stakes he suggested they record their claims in order to secure them for when the country opened up.

Throughout these proceedings, Crook thought the Lakotas had been remarkably forbearing. “How do thelay out the conspiracy.

On October 8, Sheridan cut short his honeymoon in San Francisco to make his way east.

**********

Sensing trouble on the Plains, a group of New York pastors met with Grant on November 1 and exhorted him not to abandon his Peace Policy in order to satisfy a specie-starved public. That “would be a blow to the cause of Christianity throughout the world.”

“With great promptness and precision,” the New York Herald reported, the president assured the clergymen that he would never abandon the Peace Policy and “that it was his hope that during his administration it would become so firmly established as to be the necessary policy of his successors.” Smelling a rat, the Herald correspondent added, “In that he might possibly be mistaken.”

Grant was, in fact,
