So many earthquakes have rocked the high desert of Southern California since Friday's 7.1-magnitude temblor that the U.S. Geological Survey said Saturday it is unable to "count all events." The quakes — there have been more than 3,000 associated with the two major shakers —are part of a sequence that is sure to continue rumbling in Searles Valley and Ridgecrest, California, seismologists say. Late Friday,Lucy Jones, a seismologist at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, initially said there was about a 1 in 10 chance that yet another earthquake could top the last one, in this case the 7.1 of Friday night.

to find and focus on what still "jazzes" someone about their work. For example, one leader at a large company thrived off innovation and creativity, but his team wasn't delivering in that area. So Weiss helped him create an environment that encouraged risk-taking ­— even if it resulted in failure. "What he did was at the end of the year when they had their annual awards ceremony to reward those who had high sales or the best service, he started giving out an award for 'the best idea that didn't work'," says Weiss, who wrote the book "Million Dollar Consulting. This small change helped to not only to inspire his team to be more creative but helped the executive reignite his passion for the job. Weiss also oftendo things as well or as fast as I can," is the other big issue he sees in leaders. The key to effective delegating is to help people understand that "there's no such thing as perfection. It doesn't exist, and perfection always kills excellence," Weiss says. With the 80-hour executive, Weiss says he helped him understand that when an employee is performing tasks that are "good enough," leave it at that and move on. With that understanding, Weiss helped the executive identify the high-level tasks he absolutely had to do due to his level of expertise, but he also helped him figure out who on his team could best handle the rest of the work. After learning to delegate, his client eventually reduced his hours to around 60

Not exactly a face you want barreling down at you. iStockphoto.com /Adrian Jones Walking down a New York City street, the last thing you might expect is for a torpedo to come barreling down at you from atop the Empire State Building. Yet as you absentmindedly watch the pigeons peck away at someone's discarded­ tuna on rye, an oncoming streak of gray and white barely gives you enough time to take cover under a nearby bench. The pecking pigeons aren't so lucky, and the torpedo, which now appears to have a beak and talons, flies off to a nearby skyscraper, pigeon in tow, to enjoy its snack. By now you probably realize that the flash of feathers was one of the peregrine falcons that now call bustling cities like Newperegrine falcons are the most widespread bird in the world, absent only on isolated islands and in high mountains, expansive deserts and jungles. Although it may be difficult to spot one sitting still, you can identify them by their bluish-gray backs and similarly colored long, pointed wings, as well as the white and black spots on their bellies. They also have black stripes set against their whitish faces, which resemble mustaches. As fast as they are, peregrine falcons could barely outrun (or outfly) the dangers of Dichloro-diphenyl-trichlorethane (DDT). Beginning in the 1940s and lasting through the early '70s, the entire American peregrine falcon population experienced drastic declines due to the widespread use of this deadly pesticide, which caused their eggshells to weaken and break and led baby peregrine falcons

the Facebook Help Community forum, in which users can raise questions and write about their experiences, have contributed to the algorithm theory for years. Not the first time Facebook’s actions in India have drawn comparisons with the blocking of numerous accounts and pages in Pakistan in 2014 that were severely criticised by advocates of free speech. Among the Pakistani accounts that faced action were Left-Wing political pages and the pages of a popular rock band whose members spoke out against the Taliban, a radical militant organisation. After an outcry on social media, several of the accounts were restored. In a report, The New York Times quoted a Facebook spokesperson in London saying it had blocked the pages after receiving an official request from the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority, and that thePressure on China's leaders to cut pollution from coal is likely to intensify – potentially hurting Australia's exports – with new research showing Beijing's air quality will get worse with climate change. The Chinese capital's ring of mountains to the west and north naturally traps pollution, especially in winter. But a warming world is projected to increase the frequency of the most severe pollution events by half, according to research published on Tuesday in the Nature Climate Change journal. The duration of events similar to the "Airpocalypse" of January 2013 – when pollution levels soared to beyond 20 times the level recommended by the World Health Organisation – will rise by 80 per cent, the study found.

conflict (such as through estimates of resource holding potential). Gender General Gender plays an important role in human aggression. There are multiple theories that seek to explain findings that males and females of the same species can have differing aggressive behaviors. One review concluded that male aggression tended to produce pain or physical injury whereas female aggression tended towards psychological or social harm. In general, sexual dimorphism can be attributed to greater intraspecific competition in one sex, either between rivals for access to mates and/or to be chosen by mates. This may stem from the other gender being constrained by providing greater parental investment, in terms of factors such as gamete production, gestation, lactation, or upbringing of young. Although there is much variation in species, generally the more physically aggressive sex istypical pattern of primates where several males and females live together in a group and the male faces an intermediate number of challenges from other males compared to exclusive polygyny and monogamy but frequent sperm competition. Evolutionary psychology and sociobiology have also discussed and produced theories for some specific forms of male aggression such as sociobiological theories of rape and theories regarding the Cinderella effect. Another evolutionary theory explaining gender differences in aggression is the Male Warrior hypothesis, which explains that males have psychologically evolved for intergroup aggression in order to gain access to mates, resources, territory and status. Physiology Brain pathways Many researchers focus on the brain to explain aggression. Numerous circuits within both neocortical and subcortical structures play a central role in controlling aggressive behavior, depending on the species, and

Scott Galupo notes that Mitt's "Southern problem" is not necessarily about the South: Republican presidential candidates obviously don't win general elections by winning Dixie alone. They win in swing states like Ohio. And they win in swing states like Ohio by turning out Southern-type voters who live in Ohio—evangelicals and Reagan Democrats. … Romney's "Southern problem" therefore isn't that he's in danger of losing Southern states; it's that he's not reaching those demographic chunks of non-Southern states that most resemble the South.its efforts to mint its own brands given the success of its food-themed vertical, Tasty.

Mrs. Fielding donated $245,000 to allow the city to purchase the 12-acre property on which the school once sat. She also agreed to foot much of the $150,000 bill for the school’s demolition. In August 2016, Mrs. Fielding celebrated her 100th birthday by donating $1 million for the purchase of 300 more acres of land. She made that donation in memory of her parents, Susanna and John Kivi, as well as the Finnish immigrants who settled in the neighbourhood and helped shape the city. McIntosh says Mrs. Fielding has donated close to $2 million so far to get the park ready for visitors. McIntosh says it is her way of giving back to the community in which she grew up.

recognized by the international community. Instead the old government remained in exile from 1944 through 1992 in Stockholm, Sweden, and returned to power in 1992. That's what happened and what has been recognized. The state border line was redrawn after the war with Finland in 1944 as well. So this border treaty essentially represents the end of the Cold War. That is why it is so important. esmaspäev, juuni 20, 2005 The Riigikogu ratified the border treaty with the Russian Federation today, passing the resolution 78 - 4. Res Publika had originally refused to vote until a preamble was added that mentioned the occupation and annexation of Estonia in 1940 and 1944 by Russia's predecessor state, the USSR. However, the ruling colaition disagreed with that idea. A compromise was drafted that claimedthat the current Estonian republic was the same republic that was declared in the Treaty of Tartu in 1920. The 'occupation and annexation' claims were dropped because the Estonian parliament knew that the Russian parliament would object to these claims and thought it fruitless to pursue recognition of this historical wrong when they could just as easily get their border treaty signed. The preamble reads: Proceeding from the legal continuity of the Republic of Estonia proclaimed on 24 February 1918, as it is stipulated in the Constitution of the Republic of Estonia, from the Resolution of the Republic of Estonia Supreme Council of 20 August 1991 "On the National Independence of Estonia," and from the Declaration of the Riigikogu of 7 October 1992 "On the Restoration of Constitutional Power," and

REUTERS/Chris Helgren (Reuters) - Air Canada AC.TO said on Wednesday it has removed Boeing's BA.N 737 MAX from its flight schedule until June 30, 2020, a day after the U.S. planemaker warned the grounded jet would not win regulatory approval until mid-year. The Canadian airline, which has 24 MAX aircraft in its fleet, said the decision was based on operational considerations after Boeing revealed that the MAX’s return to service would be further delayed. The final decision on the aircraft’s return would be based on the company’s safety assessment, following a green light from thegovernment and approval by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Transport Canada, Air Canada said. The country’s biggest carrier had previously said it would not fly the MAX until Feb. 14, 2020. Boeing on Tuesday flagged potential developments in the MAX certification process and regulatory scrutiny on its flight control system. Following the announcement, Canada’s WestJet Airlines said it would remove the MAX from its schedule through June 24. Expecting approval in the first quarter, American Airlines Group Inc AAL.O, United Airlines Holdings Inc UAL.O and Southwest Airlines Co LUV.N had scheduled MAX flights in early June, but are now expected to extend their timelines.

of jointly developing comprehensive industrial policies under the auspices of regional integration bodies such as the Southern African Customs Union (SACU). Regional co-operation in industrial policy design and implementation has the potential to both identify and capitalise on the productive synergies that exist between states, and to enhance the integrated performance of industrial sectors across borders. The Zambian economy has undergone profound reforms in the last two decades. It has transited to a market economy from the previously centrally planned economy. As part of the economy-wide reforms, the country's industrial and trade policies have also been re-oriented to suit the needs of the market-oriented economy. This paper therefore reviews the evolution of Zambia's industrial and trade policies from 1964, when the country gained independence, to 2009. This period isthe Structural Adjustment Programme and re-oriented its trade and industrial policies towards the market. Government's role has changed from that of an investor to creating a conducive (mainly macroeconomic stability and licensing reforms) and incentivised environment for private export oriented industrialisation strategy. The incentives have included fiscal incentives and infrastructural support. The reforms have resulted in an increased production and export of manufactured goods by more than 300% between 1991 and 2008. The paper focuses on the conduct of trade and industrial policies in Malawi, their linkages and impacts on the performance of the trade and industry sectors. The study establishes that Malawi has gone through three stages of trade and industrial policy. From focusing on the production and trade of a few agricultural commodities during the colonial era,

Peter Bradshaw flatly labeled "The best American film of the year") a failure. But it did open the 2000s on a less than triumphant note for the Coens, setting up a half-decade stretch that is generally taken to be their driest period creatively, if not commercially. Their follow-up to _The Man Who Wasn't There_ was supposed to be an adaptation of _Deliverance_ author James Dickey's 1993 novel _To the White Sea_ into an epic action movie. The book is a terse, exciting account of a downed American rear-gunner trying to survive in the Japanese capital during an attack by his own countrymen; the Coens' plan was to film it mostly without dialogue. "Don't set a movie in Tokyo during the firebombing unless you have a lot of moneyon that film that music would remind you—and I know it sounds ridiculous—but it would remind you that you were watching a movie. And of course we know we're all sitting in a movie, but music really took you out of the particular reality of that film. I think there are directors who take music seriously and think about its presence in a film, or about its absence. Hitchcock was one of those directors, and I think Joel and Ethan are as well. **In _Blood Simple_ , the music is minimal but it definitely has presence. The main pop cut on the soundtrack is very nasty, "It's the Same Old Song," indicating this kind of circular misanthropy. The piano motif of the score is also circular—it goes around and

aspiration of ordinary people to take control of their lives that fueled passion for the revolt against the human condition of monarchy, exemplified by the imposed authority of King George. Despite all the flaws, contradictions and inherent inequality with the founders and the large gap between ideals and reality, the Bill of Rights was a groundbreaking move away from the single power of central authority, whether it be King, plutocrat or president. It was an attempt to create a shift from the centralized throne to a system of law, specifically with the U.S. Constitution as a mechanism for the balance of power. This history-making document is a declaration of the supreme power of the common man. It recognizes everyday people as the primary active agent within any healthy society.

Yet despite the ideals in the Declaration, from its inception democracy in the U.S. Republic was never intended to be direct, created of the people, by the people and for the people. The idea of equality self-evidenced in the Declaration was kept unfree as the Republic took representation as its formal governing structure. The true revolutionary force behind the First Amendment remained leashed. This was most apparent in the denial of rights for slaves, indigenous people and women. Though in many ways it was a groundbreaking concept, American democracy still had a tendency for corruption and unchecked power of privilege. In this representative form of governance, some progress was made, but the fuller meaning of the First Amendment remained unrealized and was simply translated as

When it was desired to practise them in the raising of the sluice-gates which, in the event of invasion, were to convert Romney Marsh into an inland sea, no efforts availed to get together sufficient men for the purpose. Immune from the press by reason of their newly created status of Sea-Fencibles, they were all elsewhere, following their time-honoured vocations of fishing and smuggling with industry and gladness of heart. As a means of repelling invasion the Popham scheme was farcicalhead, provided they did not prove fatal. The accident "disagreeable" was peculiar to pressing. It consisted in the killing of a man, by whatever means and in whatever manner, whilst endeavouring to press him, and the immediate effect of the act, which was common enough, was to set up a remarkable contradiction in terms. The man killed was not the victim of the accident. The victim was the officer or gangsman who was responsible for striking him off the roll of His Majesty's pressable subjects, and who thus let himself in for the consequences, more or less disagreeable, which inevitably followed. While it was naturally the ambition of every officer engaged in pressing "to do the business without any disagreeable accident ensuing," he preferred, did fate ordain it otherwise, that the accident should happen at sea rather than on land, since

During the middle of the 19th century, London’s antiquarian market was flooded by the sudden arrival of a large number of supposedly mediaeval leaden artifacts of unknown origin. Questions about the authenticity of the items were raised, but the general consensus was that they were real. The objects were eventually revealed to be forgeries made by two lowly criminals with no background in either history or archaeology. In fact, they were illiterates. As expected, their products were also inept and crude. What’s embarrassing was how readily some of the most authoritative medievalists of Victorian London fell for the slipshod workmanship. Known as Shadwell forgeries these medieval-looking medallions, amulets and coins with nonsensical inscription and jumbled numeration were today’s equivalent to phishing emails with incorrect spellings and grammar. The Shadwellforgeries were the work of two mudlarks, William Smith (Billy) and Charles Eaton (Charley), who scoured the banks of the Thames for anything of value that they could sell. It eventually dawned on them that they could earn more by fabricating antiques themselves. In 1857, Billy and Charley began manufacturing a range of “medieval” objects by making moulds out of plaster of Paris and casting the objects in lead and later a lead-based alloy. Their techniques were extremely primitive and amateurish, leading to poorly defined edges, pitted and uneven surfaces and poorly drawn figures of knights wearing strange spikey crowns and bearing childish expressionless faces. Inscriptions were just meaningless scribbles since neither Billy nor Charley could spell. To give the appearance of age, the objects were treated with acid

Image caption General Petraeus (l) is tipped to replace Leon Panetta (r) at the CIA Gen David Petraeus, the US head of international forces in Afghanistan, will be nominated as CIA director when its chief moves to head the Pentagon, unnamed US officials have said. CIA director Leon Panetta will be nominated to take over as US defence secretary when Robert Gates retires in 2011, the sources said. The changes will be officially announced on Thursday. Mr Gates was first appointed as defence secretary by George W Bush in 2006. The shuffling of the top national security jobs has been the subject of weeks of speculation. Analysis It has been rumoured for some time that Gen Petraeus would be on the move by the end of the year. The question was whether he wouldbecome the next chairman of the US joint chiefs of staff, or head somewhere else. The rumour has been that Mr Obama favours the current vice-chief at the Pentagon, Gen James Cartwright, to take over the top military job, so director of the CIA looked a more likely slot for General Petraeus. Exact timing will be key. There are still important issues in Afghanistan over the summer to do with the campaign, the strategy, and troop withdrawals. But there will be a vacancy at the CIA, it seems. Leon Panetta's challenge will be greater, and his reported nomination is more significant. He has a hard act to follow in Robert Gates, who is widely respected as both a deft and safe pair of hands. The Pentagon also faces

Mahaprabhu saw the elaborate preparations made for offering food to Radha and Govinda and to serve Him, and praised Sarvabhauma for his efforts. When He sat down to eat, Sarvabhauma’s son-in-law, Amogha, came to watch. Sarvabhauma knew Amogha’s fault-finding character and so had kept a stick to chase him away so that he would not disturb the Lord. However, he was so absorbed in serving the Lord that Amogha managed to sneak in. He saw the lavish feast, he immediately began to criticize: “There is enough food here to satisfy a dozen people and yet this sannyasi is going to eat all this by Himself?” (Chaitanya Charitamrita 2.15.248) Sarvabhauma Bhattacharya flared up in anger, took the stick whichhe had at the ready and went after Amogha, who fled as fast as he could. Sarvabhauma’s wife, shocked on hearing her son-in-law insult the Lord, began to flail herself on the head and chest and repeatedly said, “May Nathi become a widow!” The Lord Himself laughed off Amogha’s trivial criticisms and tried to pacify Sarvabhauma and his wife. The next day, however, Amogha came down with cholera. Sarvabhauma thought that justice was being done, that it was a suitable punishment for the offensive words spoken by his son-in-law. When Gopinath Acharya informed Mahaprabhu that Sarvabhauma and his wife were both fasting and that Amogha was on his deathbed with cholera, the merciful Lord immediately went to Amogha’s bedside, placed His hand on his chest and said, “This Brahmin’s heart

Brandy further testified that Decker appeared to be slurring his speech, but admitted that she was unaware of whether his speech was usually slurred. She refused to opine as to whether she believed Decker was intoxicated. Jason Mabbitt, a paramedic with San Marcos EMS, testified that he arrived on the scene after Decker had been placed in the back seat of a police car. He treated a cut on Decker’s hand. He observed that Decker was “alert and oriented to person, place, time andevents.” According to Mabbit, Decker’s speech was slurred and Mabbit smelled alcohol on his breath. He asked Decker if he had consumed any alcohol, to which Decker replied, “No comment.” Mabbit did not, however, form an opinion as to whether Decker was intoxicated. Rudy Mesa, a police officer with the City of San Marcos, was at a gas station when he was approached by Holland, who reported an accident. Mesa also received information from dispatch regarding the location of the vehicles involved in the accident. When he arrived at the scene where the vehicles had pulled over, he spoke to the Charltons and Decker. As Mesa was speaking with Decker, he detected an odor of alcohol on his breath. Mesa asked

One of Mullen's proposals, which would abolish the city's Board of Public Works, caused so much noise and applause from the audience that the Chairman threatened to clear the hall. Mayor James Chambers later commented that "Mullen was trying the spend the city's money like a drunken sailor" by proposing several orders that would've increased public expenditure. That March, he walked out of a meeting to avoid voting on the city's budget, which would cause the budget to be referred back to the Finance Committee. Alderman Fred C. Hansen stated that Mullen had "sneaked away like a yellow dog" as part of what Thetakes over as president after a statewide conference last month.

Police Marine Division (officers Seda, Ronda, Toro, and Torres). The FURA team left shore, heading south, around 7:00 p.m. About half an hour later, they received a radio message from a boat identifying itself as the M/V CATU. The CATU stated that it was traveling from the Dominican Republic to Puerto Rico and wanted to know the weather conditions along the west coast. Irizarry furnished the requested information and, upon inquiry by the CATU, identified himself as a representative of the marine police. He refused, however, to give a specific answer to the CATU's request concerning the FURA boat's location. 3 In order to avoid the worsening weather, Irizarry changed direction and headed north toward Mayaguez. Around 9:15 p.m., the FURA boat approached theis "the officer in charge at the time." 34 The policemen's designation forms offered two possible sources of approval for specific actions: the "Special Agent-in-Charge" or "Watch Commander." The government admits that no permission was obtained from the Special Agent-in-Charge, Jaime Echevarria. Instead, it was agent Jimenez who authorized the search. Jimenez testified that, when he received the call requesting permission to board the CATU, he was the "functional equivalent" of a watch commander. Defendants argue that this is an inherently implausible conclusion since Jimenez was not at a duty station but attending a baseball game when the call was received. Such an argument, however, takes much too parochial a view of command status. The evidence showed that Jimenez was wearing

on the election of Cardinal Hesler to the position, issuing papal bulls threatening Mauerkircher and his supporters with excommunication and interdict. Pope Sixtus IV personally consecrated Hesler as a bishop on 13 February 1480. On 1 May 1480, Hesler left Rome for the imperial court. Three canons from the Passau cathedral chapter now defected to Hesler's side. They proclaimed Hesler the rightful bishop and Hesler's investiture took place in Vienna without incident. However, Passau still refused to recognize Hesler as its ruler. It remained in a state of rebellion until the emperor pronounced the proscription over the city in 1482. Finally, in August 1482, an agreement was reached whereby Hesler would become bishop and Mauerkircher was recognized as his successor.

Bush’s administration. Mnuchin’s team includes Tara Bradshaw, a Bush-era spokeswoman at the Treasury Department, and Mary Waters, an official in the Agriculture Department under Bush. Tillerson’s team includes Christian Whiton, who worked at the State Department during the Bush presidency; and Margaret Peterlin, a former Commerce Department official and senior House Republican aide.

On this raid, one of the bound survivors is spotted taking a ring from his finger and swallowing it so as to keep the pirates from having it. The pirate captain calls one of his men over and tells him of the foolish deed and motions him to retrieve the ring.

Top cop resigns in disgrace over link to racist and obscene posts One of Victoria Police's most senior officers and the head of the force's Professional Standards Command has resigned in disgrace over racist and obscene posts made under the pseudonym Vernon Demerest. Assistant Commissioner Brett Guerin, head of Professional Standards and a police officer of 40 years, was last week referred to Victoria's anti-corruption watchdog after The Age revealed he posted shocking comments under the online pseudonym "Vernon Demerest". The Age revealed on Monday that that nom de plume has been also linked to several vile posts on social media under the Demerest alias, including references to "cheating dagos", "third world dullards", "Indian and Pakistani peasant[s]" and "jigaboo[s]". Within an hour of The Age revealing the new allegations, Mr Guerin resignedAnti-corruption Commission last week after The Age revealed he was responsible for offensive comments about former Chief Commissioner Christine Nixon and former Police Association boss Paul Mullett on a blog. Mr Guerin admitted on Thursday that he was behind the comments made under the name Vernon Demerest, after the fictional character played by Dean Martin in the 1970 movie Airport. Last Friday, he was directed by Chief Commissioner Graham Ashton to take leave while the state's corruption watchdog investigates him. Of Ms Nixon and Mr Mullett, "Demerest" wrote in August 2016: "She [Ms Nixon] bent the Mulletmeister [Mr Mullett] over and slipped a rather large schlong up his date courtesy of the Supreme Court's decision this morning."

ever abuse the saints of God and for selfish, greedy purposes slaughter innocent sheep and tender lambs, it is at least as bad if not worse when carnal, ungodly church-members rise up against a godly, holy shepherd and bring railing accusations against him, ultimately seeking to destroy his ministry because he dared to stand up against them for what is right. A pastor has perhaps one of the most dangerous jobs in the world. He is expected to love everybody, treat everyone fairly, and never be offended by anything anyone would say or do. And he is expected to mysteriously produce and maintain an aura of respectability in a church. He must visit and pray for the sick, be attentive to the concerns and complaints of each member ofthe church, bless babies, marry young couples, and bury the dead. All of this he must do while seeking to know the mind of Christ for the church as a whole, and for each individual as well. And he must teach doctrine and preach the gospel. And for the most part, he is well rewarded for his labor. By and large, Apostolics are very faithful in giving honor to whom honor is due, and even giving double honor from time to time. But there is a blight that will sometimes settle in on a congregation, a blight that if it is not removed in time will choke the very life out of the local assembly and often jeopardizes the health and sanity of the shepherd.

When he returned to Decker, Mesa asked him to perform field sobriety tests, but Decker refused. It was then that Mesa formed the opinion that Decker was intoxicated and arrested him.

be sent to revolutionary committees for implementation. Observers have noted instances in which Gaddafi, in a nominal role of avuncular overseer, was rebuffed by the Jamahiriya system and times where he rejected its demands. As head of the armed forces, he never really relinquished the power that would have made the Jamahiriya all the more empowering to the population. But this is not to say it does not include elements that American democracy could not profit by, notably the Jeffersonian and anarchic notion of delegating decision-making to the most grassroots level. Among the numerous transformative changes that benefited large swathes of society were the nationalization of the oil industry and the reduction of imperial influence in the country. The standard of living improved dramatically, surpassing every other African nationby the time of Gaddafi’s demise. Education and healthcare were freely provided. Housing was freely provided. Portions of oil proceeds were deposited directly into citizen bank accounts. Electricity was free. New mothers received a state grant. Illiteracy was dramatically reduced. Gaddafi even demanded that foreign oil companies pay for the losses inflicted on the country by the West’s illegal sanctions in connection to the Lockerbie scandal from the 1980s. But that is only part of the story. It was Gaddafi who supported the African National Congress (ANC) at a time when Washington considered it a brutal terrorist organization, and Nelson Mandela as its sinister cohort.

Commanders in charge of training Afghan troops had asked staff members for routine research using publicly available information about the views of visiting lawmakers and did not order deceptive methods usually employed against enemy armies, military officials said. ADVERTISEMENT A military lawyer had looked into the case and concluded the orders were lawful, the officials said. The allegations in last week’s Rolling Stone magazine article come from an army lieutenant colonel, Michael Holmes, who charges he was asked to violate regulations and use his “information operations” techniques on prominent senators. The article has prompted an official investigation, ordered by the commander of US and NATO

grade high school student, carried a concealed weapon into his San Antonio, Texas high school. He was charged under Texas law with firearm possession on school premises. The next day, the state charges were dismissed after federal agents charged Lopez with violating a federal criminal statute, the Gun-Free School Zones Act of 1990. The act forbids "any individual knowingly to possess a firearm at a place that [he] knows...is a school zone." Lopez was found guilty following a bench trial and sentenced to six months' imprisonment and two years' supervised release. Question Is the 1990 Gun-Free School Zones Act, forbidding individuals from knowingly carrying a gun in a school zone, unconstitutional because it exceeds the power of Congress to legislate under the Commerce Clause? Conclusion Yes. The possession of a gun inShah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif's 'Ishq Shava' is the second track to release from Jab Tak Hai Jaan. A number of Bollywood playback singers including Udit Narayan, KK and Anushka Manchanda have contributed vocals to the upbeat, fusion song. "'Ishq Shava' is one of the highlights of the soundtrack," a source told Digital Spy. "Udit Narayan is of course a fan favourite - and for many his voice is the perfect match for Shah Rukh Khan. There's also a melodious Spanish guitar. "The video is very edgy, with SRK and Kat performing with freestyle dancers in an underground club and on board a boat on the River Thames.

Run Defense 14/20 Brooks can struggle to break off blocks, but he does show a willingness to come down into the box and make attempts on the ball. As a tackler in the open field, he's very good, and he can even be violent. But a good stalk block or rub from a moving blocker will throw him off his game. Speed 18/20 A natural athlete with good movement skills, Brooks has the speed to compete with backs and receivers down the field. You see the burst from his lower body in his change-of-direction skills and the way he attacks outside runs. Speed is not an issue here. Upside 16/20 Brooks is a talented, NFL-ready player. But how muchroom does he have to grow? There is obvious room for upside in terms of coverage awareness and route-recognition, but as a center fielder, he doesn't have as high of a ceiling. Brooks' current ability is very good, but his room to improve isn't as big as others. Overall 85/100 One of the top coverage safeties in the entire draft, Brooks has been overlooked due to a very talented Florida State draft class.

City Government Judge Defines Bullying in Case Involving City Schools Bullying once meant dipping a schoolgirl's braids in the desk inkwell or throwing snowballs at the new kids. But 21st century bullying can involve schoolhouse shootings, tormenting gay classmates, ruinous sex videos, devastating Internet abuse and suicides. The new extremes may be due to increasing violence among children, and, ironically, may also flow from diversity, which provides bullies with targets who look or sound different or may be gay, or have disabilities. In a federal lawsuit brought against New York City's Department of Education by the parents of LK, then a 12-year-old pupil at P.S. 6 on Manhattan’s upper east side, Judge Jack Weinstein of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York has framed a test forfor the bully either physical or psychological." LK, originally diagnosed as autistic and later as learning disabled, was enrolled in a class of children of varying abilities. The allegations, officially undocumented but confirmed by special aides assigned to her while in school, included that other children laughed at her when she tried to speak in class, tripped her in the hallways and generally shunned her to the point of refusing to touch any object she had touched. In this case, the only report the school provided described LK as the aggressor. Testifying at an administrative hearing, the school's principal could not recall what, if any, investigation she had done into complaints made by LK's parents. According to the plaintiffs -- the parents -- heir child was not protected at schools

As a high school freshman in Greensboro, N.C., weighing his prospects for a basketball career, John Isner was forced to admit that dribbling was not his specialty. “I couldn’t handle the ball at all,” Isner said. “Not even average.” That has changed dramatically in adulthood: Isner is a standout dribbler in an entirely different sport. His penchant for bouncing the ball between his legs as he plants his left foot and squares up to the baseline is a key component of the buildup to his serve — one of the biggest ever. Isner used his pet basketball move, virtually without fail, to usher himself into position on the 91 serves he uncorked in his straight-sets, first-round victory over Guillermo García-López at the United States Open on Tuesday.

Amin Elhassan had this to say about the Cavaliers: Remember when I said some teams cash in their youth for "win now" vets? That's exactly what Cleveland did when it moved players such as Tyler Zeller and Sergey Karasev in cap-clearing deals to sign LeBron James, then traded Wiggins and Bennett in the Kevin Love deal.

based on his 1987 conviction. Rivera-Aristizabal immediately appealed the order of deportation to the Board of Immigration Appeals ("BIA"). On the same day, Nilsa Ruiz-Rivera posted a $10,000 cash immigration bond with the Chicago office of the INS to secure the release of her husband pending his appeal. After his release, Rivera-Aristizabal went to Chicago, where he remained until his deportation. 4 The delivery bond required Ruiz-Rivera to produce her husband "to an immigration officer of the United States upon each and every request by such officer...." The BIA affirmed the deportation order on June 10, 1991. The Oakdale INS office notified Ruiz-Rivera by certified letter, dated June 21, 1991, that she was required to produce her husband to the INS in Oakdale, Louisiana at9:00 a.m. on July 15, 1991 for deportation. The Oakdale INS office similarly notified Rivera-Aristizabal in a June 24, 1991 letter that he needed to report to the Oakdale INS at 9 a.m. on July 15, 1991. Rivera-Aristizabal signed return receipts for both letters on June 29, 1991. 5 On July 2, 1991, Rivera-Aristizabal filed a petition for review of the BIA's decision in this court.

Satellite Communication Organization). (It would no longer have to rent American satellites at exorbitant rates.) In that regard, Gaddafi was a driving force in building pan-African institutions. The goal was his long-stated aim to reduce the influence of imperial power on Libya and the continent at large. Doing his best Hugo Chavez impersonation, he used oil wealth to lessen dependency on the exploitative International Monetary Fund and to attempt to de-dollarize the African continent. At the time of his assassination, he was busily creating an African Investment Bank that would provide interest-free development loans to other African nations. He proposed an African Central Bank to be based in Nigeria. He was working on a Cameroon-based African Monetary Fund. He was sketching a blueprint for a gold-backed African currency.He also played a role in the continental rejection of AFRICOM, the imperial headquarters Washington wanted to install to better exploit and police the continent. For Africans, these were monumental undertakings and offered the hope of independence from Western militaries, multinationals, and creditors. For the West, Gaddafi’s actions were the ultimate crime. He was essentially trying to block the IMF from furthering shackling Africa in suffocating debt that, to be sure, would provide a steady flow of interest payments back to Western banks. He also effectively proposed a de-dollarized African economic block free of both the dollar reserve currency and Western lending institutions. Heunderstood that both were tools of oppression and enslavement. He wanted to replace these extractive tools with continental development funds beneficial to Africans. For all of this

of the son.Whenever I see a column criticizing social traditions and public policies that ignore children born to parents of modest means - without stock market portfolios or networks of well-connected friends that whites are priviledged to have from STOLEN wealth or FREE labor from slaves. You might as well ask: Why didn't those children do a better of job of choosing their parents?Since children obviously cannot choose their families, it's impractical, at best, to neglect those born outside the magic circle of white middle-class attainment, social mobility has been limited by a range of trends, including the demise of manufacturing jobs and the making of laws constructed by mostly whites, that benefits only their own. In turn these circumstances makes the routes to a better life blocked,and their circumstances more limited than many of us can imagine. This is a very interesting question Vera and one that I've answered to white people to their face and my answer has been met with many different reactions. Though most of them didn't like my answer. First, did you know that "Say It Loud, I'm Black and I'm Proud" was a tune done by James Brown back in the sixties? But to answer your question. It's all about perception.

Q: "curb your enthusiasm" any special meaning Regarding the show "Curb your enthusiasm" - does the title indicate some more meaning than simply "restrain your enthusiasm"? A: The wording of the show's title certainly brings to mind the many "Curb Your Dog" signs found in New York City and other urban areas. Perhaps they exist in affluent west Los Angeles, where most of the shoe is set. To curb one's dog is To lead (a dog) off the sidewalk into the gutter so that it can excrete waste. (The Free Dictionary) It also means to clean up after your dog or cat has pooped in a public area. I doubt that this usage of curb escaped the attention of Larry David when he came up with the title for his series.I doubt, however, that the sign's (and phrase's) meaning has much, if anything, to do with how the show's title is meant to be explicitly understood. But Larry David is a creative genius, and there is no way he was unfamiliar with the phrase "Curb Your Dog." As dry a sense of humor as the guy has, I would not be surprised if the well-known saying curb you dog did not play some small part in the phrasing of the show's title, if only as (ironic?) self-deprecation. Wikipedia claims to say something intelligent about the title: David has explained the show's title in TV interviews as reflecting his perception that many people seem to live their lives projecting false enthusiasm, which he believes is used to imply

A Tree Grows in Brooklyn (1945) Elia Kazan's first feature film, based on the novel by Betty Smith, focuses on a theme that he returned to many times during his career: the struggle of a weak or ill-prepared individual to survive against powerful forces. A timely film, Brooklyn was released at the end of World War II, helping to remind post-war audiences of the enduring importance of the American dream.

A fascinating time capsule, the film showcases the details of daily life in a major American city, including the fashions, transportation and architecture of the era. It was originally thought to have been filmed in 1905, but historian David Kiehn, who examined contemporary newspapers, weather reports and car license plates recorded in the film, later suggested that A Trip Down Market Street was likely filmed just a few days before the devastating earthquake of April 18, 1906.

National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden arrived in Moscow on a flight from Hong Kong on June 23, but he has been out of the public eye and his circumstances and plans are murky. President Vladimir Putin said that Snowden could stay in Russia on condition he stop leaking U.S. secrets. Putin's spokesman later said Snowden had withdrawn his request for asylum after learning the terms. (AP Photo/Ivan Sekretarev, File) MOSCOW (AP) -- A Russian official of Amnesty International says he plans to meet with Edward Snowden, the leaker of U.S. National Security Agency secrets. Sergei Nikitin, head of the rightsorganization's Russia office, told The Associated Press the meeting would take place Friday, but he declined to say where. However, the head of the Moscow lawyers' association, Genri Reznik, was quoted by the Interfax news agency as saying the meeting has been called for 4:30 p.m. (1230 GMT) at Moscow's Sheremetyevo international airport. Snowden is believed to have been stuck in the transit zone at Sheremetyevo as he negotiates for asylum in another country. Russian news agencies reported that Snowden had called on several organizations, among them Transparency International and Human Rights Watch, to meet with him at the airport. Reznik told Interfax that he had also received the invitation and would try to go. Advertisement The deputy head of HRW's Moscow office, Tatiana Loshkina, was quoted by Russian news agencies as

Otte said no, and after eight dates, she broke things off with Ravenel when he allegedly became scary. But now, after months of alleged online harassment and cyberbullying by Ravenel, Jacobs, and a PR firm hired by the two, Otte has hired the high-profile law firm of L. Lin Wood to sort out this mess, have it cease, and likely seek damages. #bravo #SouthernCharm #ashleyjacobs SHAME ON BRAVO and Southern Charm producers!

Bravo and Haymaker are trying to HIDE this truth, this showa thousand-year slumber – and he suggests that maybe Thomas allowed Ashley to get close, maybe too close, and she may one day testify against Thomas in court.” Adding fuel to this fire is the fact that Jacobs seems to have disappeared from Thomas Ravenel’s Instagram page. He now posts pictures of his family, his children with Kathryn Dennis, and Dennis herself, but Jacobs is gone. Her recent statements allege that their relationship is better ever since the Charleston Police started investigating allegations of rape against Ravenel, but he has not mentioned Jacobs in social media posts in over a month.

and human capital challenges to overcome, and with no discernible driver for development, Botswana faced an uncertain future. THE DISCOVERY OF DIAMONDS Prospects changed just one year after independence, when promising deposits of diamonds were discovered. De Beers had secured prospecting rights in Botswana in 1938 and was exploring consistently by 1955. After 10 long and unsuccessful years, De Beers considered withdrawing, when its lead geologist, Dr Gavin Lamont, persuaded his seniors to continue searching for one more season. The team had instructions that, if diamonds were not found by the end of winter 1966, exploration would end. Two months before the deadline, the team found the first kimberlite pipe in the Mochudi area. One year later, diamonds were discovered at Orapa. This marked the start of an exciting period duringdiamond resources with long-term development goals in mind. Consequently, a significant body of literature now recognises Botswana as an example of how good political institutions and prudent economic policy can promote sustainable resource-led growth and development.15 The foundation stones of this success story were political stability, respect for the rule of law, and democratic leadership, drawn from the traditions of Batswana culture in which the will of the people is recognised, and in which high levels of consultation and consensus-seeking are common. A second feature was the careful planning and investment of all diamond resources in infrastructure and human capital development. Five-year National Development Plans have been introduced since the time of independence, and these have consistently directed mining rents to investment in water and transport infrastructure, education and healthcare.16

at least two institutions, the publication is considered as a cooperation work. The global architecture of the research on patient safety was visualised by using DEMPs developed by Gastner and Newman.[@R13] The advantage of this technique is that the worldwide situation can be captured immediately in its entirety by showing the differences via resizing of the country shapes. The calculation of the ratio of the number of publications to the countries' population as well as to the countries' GDP per Capita supports the assessment of global landscape, so that it can be interpreted more meaningfully. The carried out gender analysis puts its focus on both the international differences and the differences between the most assigned subject areas. Since not all the authors' gender could be determined due to not assignableon the quality of the listed journals as a result of the higher requirements. Nevertheless, owing to the substantial number of publications and their specific relationship to the study background, it is possible to assess aspects of the research output and their impact on the scientific community by analysing the number of publications and the citations, respectively, the citation indices.[@R15] With respect to the ratio of the number of publications to the GDP per Capita, India and China are striking, certainly due to their huge population.

The Notre-Dame incident was the latest in a series of attacks on French police and soldiers. One officer was shot dead by a gunman on the Champs Élysées in April.

In January 2015, a day after the attack on the Charlie Hebdo headquarters, a police officer was killed by a gunman who later took hostages in a Jewish supermarket, killing four.

Hentz said he would support the original recommendation made in the tourism study, which was authored by Dan Fenton of Duluth, Ga.-based Strategic Advisory Group. The study suggested combining the Ocean Center's sales staff with some of the visitors bureau staff, with the unified staff answering to both Ocean Center director Don Poor and Hentz. "There seems to be a true lack of wanting to cooperate, and I haven't seen anything on this level before," said Hentz, who served as director of Destination Yosemite and the Mariposa (Calif.) Convention and Visitors Bureau before taking the reins in Daytona Beach last summer. "The reluctance to work with us at the (visitors bureau) goes back well before my arrival. I'm trying to unravel this, and it's like a 10-year-old feud.I had no idea it went back that far." TOURISM LEADERSHIP'S FUTURE Regardless of how the ad authority board votes when it considers the request, the Daytona Beach area will stay far from consensus on tourism issues until a rift between some older, established hoteliers, industry watchers and community members and their younger counterparts is closed, Wagner said on Friday. Like Wagner, Davis was set against asking the Halifax ad authority to give money to the Ocean Center, calling it a "ridiculous notion" and a "monetary shell and pea game" that would undermine the authority's own advertising campaigns. Even after the council's vote, the dissenting Davis was still pushing for a merger of the visitors bureau and the Ocean Center — at least for a two-year trial period, he said,

and young children ought to be especially careful to avoid consuming water contaminated with PFOS,” Ikeda says. Since 2008, Kadena Air Base has also spilled at least 1,670 liters of hydraulic fluid, a known source of PFOS; meanwhile, drains from the base’s fire-training area, where foams are routinely sprayed, feed into local waterways. Another threat to Okinawa’s water supply comes from leaks of raw sewage, which the base apparently only started recording in 2010. In November 2010, a 57,000-liter spill contaminated the Shirahi River and the sea with sewage measuring 36,000 fecal coliform colonies/100 milliliters — 90 times the Environmental Protection Agency’s maximum limit for swimming waters. More recently, in June 2013, an overflowing manhole leaked 208,000 liters of sewage into the Hija River. The base took 27 hours to notifyabandoned hospital that had been used for “readiness training” prior to 2000.

They assert that emails copied during the "hack" were transferred by Russian government related hackers to Wikileaks which then published them. President Obama disagrees. He says those emails were "leaked". Wikileaks had insisted that the emails it published came from an insider source not from any government. The DNC emails proved that the supposedly neutral Democratic Party committee had manipulated the primary presidential elections in favor of the later candidate Hillary Clinton. This made it impossible for the alternative candidate Bernie Sanders to win the nomination. Hillory Clinton, who had

- 3 - Mr. Fisher's Tax Liability Mr. Fisher was employed by the Department of General Services for the State of Florida from 1985 through April 1992. Mr. Fisher's duties in this capacity included overseeing the contracts between the State of Florida and telephone carriers such as AT&T and Southern Bell, whereby these carriers would pay commissions to the State measured by the use of their services at pay telephones located on State property. Sometime prior to June 1991, Mr. Fisher identified certain pay telephones that were not then covered under any State agency contract with the carriers. In order to receive the commissions generated by these telephones, Mr. Fisher createdthree fictitious entities and gave them names that sounded like legitimate State agencies, such as "Florida Transportation- Maintenance", "Florida Maintenance and Repair", and "Florida Rehabilitative Service". When the agency contracts with the carriers were negotiated in July 1991, Mr. Fisher caused separate contracts to be entered into between the fictitious entities and the carriers with respect to these telephones. During the 8-month period beginning in August 1991, and continuing through March 1992, Mr. Fisher diverted approximately $300,000 in commissions that should have been paid to the State of Florida. The diverted commissions were paid to the three - 4

10. The story is a medieval comedy in which a princess and her lover try to maneuver around a curse placed by the unscrupulous king. Advertisement "The plot is fun and silly and I think it's going to work," Heimann said. Kazmierczak, a member of school choirs, has a music background and has acted in previous Penn musicals, but this is the first play she's written. Having composed music previously, that part of the writing process came fairly easily. But she struggled with the dialogue and leaned on 2011 Penn graduate and theater veteran Sam Dixon, now a college freshman, for assistance. "I sent him the script and he made some suggestions. It has helped," she said. Meanwhile, senior Brian Kempiak understands growing pains as a playwright. "Silent Voice," the evening's opener, is his thirdplay for the Theater Shorts and the experience has helped him both as a writer and director. "When I was a sophomore I had no clue how to control my cast or how to go over the lines and make them entertaining," Kempiak said. "Now I feel like I have some control and can make changes that improve the play." That's just what he did in this play by adding a monologue to the original script in order to give the audience a better understanding of a key character. "Silent Voice" is a romantic comedy in a high school setting. The story revolves around a notebook that was stolen by one female student from another, then given to a male student, Dean. The notebook contains personal feelings about Dean and relationships in general.

In addition, from 2000 to 2008, Audi, nine times in succession, secured the title in the American Le Mans Series (ALMS), the world’s most important racing series for Le Mans prototypes at the time, and 11 won the 12 Hours of Sebring 11 times. “After 18 years in prototype racing that were exceptionally successful for Audi, it’s obviously extremely hard to leave,” says Head of Audi Motorsport Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich. “Audi Sport Team Joest shaped the WEC during this period like no other team.

girl and placed her face-down in a wastebasket while she and her family were staying at a friend’s home. She was charged in that death in May 2014. Three months later, she was pregnant again, which was unknown to authorities handling the murder case. That pregnancy was revealed publicly during a hearing in January 2015 and her bond was revoked. Details of how prosecutors allege Mitin gave birth and disposed of her second baby were revealed in a motion filed in January asking Jamo to admit the new evidence. While in custody at the Ingham County jail, Mitin befriended Mariah Haughton, 18, who was awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, prosecutors said in their motion. Haughton pleaded guilty to human trafficking and transporting of a female for prostitution last year and wascharges against Haughton. Mitin shared details of the first and second births with Haughton, prosecutors said in their motion, and told her she gave birth to a stillborn baby the week before Christmas 2014. Mitin then put the baby in a green bag she'd been given with a birthday present and left it in a dumpster at an Okemos gas station, according to the motion. The motion included other details surrounding the second baby, like DNA evidence in Mitin's room, which is where prosecutors allege she gave birth, and a credit card used at the gas station where Haughton said Mitin told her she disposed of the body in a green bag. Prosecutors haven't found the second baby and haven't charged Mitin in the child's death. In February, Jamo granted a motion

Clinical manifestations were characterized by fever (99%), arthralgia (98%), myalgias (97%), headache (81%) and skin rash (49%). A total of almost 3200 cases were registered, with more than 880 confirmed via serological testing. In Mauritius island, a total number cases estimated at 3600 occurred between April and late June 2005. **Objectives:** Marseille city hosts the second larger community of Comorian in the world with a total number of 70 000 individuals. Since they operate frequent back and forth travels between Comoros islands and Marseille, the aim of this study was to investigate the impact of CHIKV African outbreak onto the population residing in Marseille. **Methods:** CHIKV (strain Ross) was used to infect Vero cells and toto toxinotype III, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) type NAP1, restriction endonuclease analyis group BI and PCR ribotype 027. In the period February until June 2004, this strain was also recognized in the UK at an outbreak involving 150 patients with 12 deaths at the Stoke Mandeville Hospital. Since then, 302 isolates of type 027 were referred to the Reference laboratory in Cardiff from 44 hospitals. After the recognition of the first outbreak of *Clostridium difficile*-associated diarrhoea (CDAD) in July 2005 due to type 027 among 45 patients at St. Jansdal hospital in Harderwijk with 3 deaths, the strain thus far caused outbreaks in 8 hospitals and 1 nursing home in the Netherlands.

For a time he was the highest-paid screenwriter in the world. In 1964 Rattigan wrote to the playwright Joe Orton congratulating him on the outrageous comedy Entertaining Mr Sloane, to which Rattigan had escorted Vivien Leigh in its first week. He invested £3,000 in getting the play transferred to the West End. Although an unlikely champion of the risqué Orton, Rattigan recognised the younger man's talent and approved of what he considered a very well written piece of theatre. He also acknowledged in retrospect that, "in a way, I was not Orton's best sponsor. I'm a very unfashionable figure still, and I was then wildly unfashionable critically.

a contender in 2017. They don't come more loyal than Thomas de Maiziere, Merkel's most trusted lieutenant until a bungled defence contract tarnished his reputation for competence. Aged 59, he lacks charisma: one party colleague described him as "a quintessential bureaucrat". Two other possibilities must first prove they can win votes: Volker Bouffier, 61, faces a tough election in Hesse on Sunday, while Julia Kloeckner, 41, must win Rhineland-Pfalz in 2016. Merkel gives no clues except to say "a successor has always been found". The eventual choice may be as improbable as she was - a Protestant woman from former East Germany leading a predominantly Catholic patriarchy from the West. Her biographer says she may yet try to match Kohl's record 16 years in office by running again in 2017. "You know Ianother 299 seats based on parties' relative strength via the second ballot.

In 2009, the CDU/CSU won 24 extra overhang seats. A new law compensates smaller parties for overhang seats, thus making it less interesting for the big parties to share support with smaller partners.

news. Anywhere he goes, a Nigerian is perceived corrupt and treated with disdain until he proves otherwise. In rue of this, the Ministry of Finance came up with the whistleblowing policy which allows citizens who report corruption-related offenses to earn a cut from the recovered loot. And so far, Nigerians have taken the bait. Since the policy came to be, this appeared to be paying off. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has been on the voyage of discovery and recovery of looted funds. Before the recent discovery at Ikoyi, the Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, said the whistle-blowing policy has led to the recovery of over $180 million from various corrupt individuals. Whistle-blowers are required to provide key information via a secure online portal involving mismanagement of public funds andof the Federal Government’s whistle blowing policy and are expected to report the wrongdoings of former and current public office holders suspected to have embezzled public funds and stashed them in several Nigerian banks. Several former and current public officers who had allegedly stolen from the treasury either hid the physical cash in safe houses or used shell companies, close aides, associates and family members to stash the ill-gotten funds in bank accounts using the names of the companies or their friends, family members and associates. These looters although they use several account names usually operate the accounts themselves, a fact that is well known by the bank account officers who help them to manage the accounts.

Party instead chose to run L. Neil Smith, whose candidacy was a protest against that of Browne. Claims of wrongdoing by Libertarian National Committee staffers during Browne's 1996 presidential campaign surfaced during his second run in 2000. Browne responded to allegations surrounding the controversy.[6] After the 2000 elections, Browne continued to work to increase the popularity of libertarian goals. In addition to writing and making appearances on behalf of the Downsize DC Foundation (an organization he helped to co-found and for which he served as Director of Public Policy for a year and a half), he hosted two weekly network radio shows,[7] one on Saturdays dealing with politics, which he often called "The Libertarian Conversation" (since listeners were encouraged to call in), and the other on Sundays, called "The MoneyShow", dealing with financial topics. Both of these radio programs were on the Genesis Communications Network. Browne also worked with the Free Market News Network, of which he was the President for much of 2005, and a Senior Political Analyst. Via Free Market News, he had his own internet-based television show called This Week in Liberty, which ran for 25 episodes. Prior to his death, he was also working on a book called The War Racket: The Lies, Myths, and Propaganda that Feed the American War Machine. War, he contended, was just another government program, and was essentially flawed because "government never solves anything."

Shields had her on the ropes as she doled out punishment in a round so one-sided that two of the judges gave her a 10-8 score even without a knockdown.
