both women. Lee had told Boyd earlier that day that Avance had given Lee a gun. Avance asked Lee if she had "that" and if she would "walk with him." Lee agreed. Avance and Lee approached Kevin on the street and Avance grabbed Kevin's wrist and attempted to steal his wallet. As they struggled, Kevin was shot once. The bullet pierced his heart and he died at the scene. Avance was taken into custody a few days after the shooting and told police that Lee was the shooter. Police contacted Lee's sister and Boyd in an effort to reach Lee. In response, Lee voluntarily went to the police station accompanied by Boyd, Lee's sister, and another acquaintance. Lieutenant William Thompson conducted an unrecorded interview with Lee. According to Thompson,Lee told him that the gun was in her hand when it discharged and killed Kevin. Lee was allowed to leave the police station immediately after the interview, but she was later arrested and charged with conspiracy to commit robbery, robbery, and felony murder. In the meantime, Avance entered into an agreement to plead guilty to robbery with a recommendation of an executed sentence of twenty years. He also agreed to testify at Lee's trial, but, for reasons not apparent from the record, he did not do so. Judge Jerome Frese presided at Avance's plea hearing and elicited the factual basis of the guilty plea, including Avance's repeated claim that Lee fired the gun that killed Kevin. The plea was accepted, but a few months later, Avance sent the

near-divine status. To the North Korean government, the American prisoners were potentially useful as bargaining chips in its quest for recognition from the United States. Fowle said on Voice of America last week that he had, while in Pyongyang, been coached to sound pathetic in an official interview conducted with him in September by CNN and the Associated Press, in order to prod the U.S. government into sending a former President to secure the prisoners’ freedom. (Bill Clinton went to Pyongyang in 2009 to bring home the journalists Laura Ling and Euna Lee; Jimmy Carter brought home Aijalon Gomes in 2010.) “The main thing was to get me to talk about my desperate situation to get things going on this side of the Pacific,” Fowle said. Instead of a formerPresident, North Korea got James Clapper, the director of national intelligence. He was a good choice—sufficiently senior and preternaturally discreet. The Obama Administration had wanted to avoid sending a diplomat, or anyone associated with policymaking, lest it be seen as engaging in dialogue. When he arrived in Pyongyang last week, Clapper carried with him what a senior Administration official described to reporters as a “brief letter” stating that he was travelling as the “President’s personal envoy, with the expressed purpose of bringing these two Americans home.” Clapper did not meet with Kim Jong-un, but there was little doubt that Kim had been personally involved in the release; the North Korean government said in a statement that it was ordered by the first chairman of North Korea’s National Defense

while since I left a suggestion for your increasingly long list of them. 😛 There’s a series of American indie games called “Shantae,” made by a company called WayForward, which are Metroidvania/Zelda hybrids. The very first game in the series was actually released on the Game Boy Color, published by Capcom, but it was one of the last games released on the system (2002!), not many copies were produced (only about 70k), it only came out in North America, and it’s considered a very valuable game to own in physical form. However, somehow, somewhere along the line, it actually managed to develop a cult following in Japan! There are a number of Japanese fanart pieces of the series, and even Ken Sugimori, the main artist for the Pokemon series,NEW DELHI: Often praised for his dressing style, Prime Minister Narendra Modi wore the traditional kurta pajama, his trademark Nehru vest and a stole when he received US President Barack Obama at the Delhi airport on Sunday.However, at the Hyderabad House function, PM Narendra Modi was seen wearing a pinstripe 'bandhgala' suit.

WINNIPEG - A study by researchers at the University of Manitoba suggests that foster children are much more likely to commit suicide than other kids, but that likelihood decreases as they spend time in care. In other words, the children were troubled long before they were taken in and foster care, despite some very high-profile tragedies, generally helps. "Rates of suicide attempts and hospital admissions within this population were highest before entry into care and decreased thereafter," says the study released Monday and published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal. The research team, including Dr. Laurence Katz and Dr. Jitender Sareen of the university's psychiatry department, examined 8,279 children and teenagers who entered Manitoba's child-welfare system between April 1, 1997, and March 31, 2006. They compared the rates of suicide, attemptedsystem in Manitoba ... could still be improved, but it may not be causing harm and the kids might be vulnerable for other reasons." The study also found suicide rates did not increase among children who were moved frequently between foster homes. That finding came as a surprise, Sareen said, since it is generally believed that instability can add to a foster child's mental health challenges. That instability was a key focus in the inquest into the death of Tracia Owen, a 14-year-old girl who hanged herself in Winnipeg in August 2005. Tracia had been in and out of different foster and group homes almost her entire life and had begun sniffing gasoline. Provincial court Judge John Guy wrote in his inquest report that "the constant movement from place to place ...

DUBAI // Several teachers overseas have fallen victim to an online job scam offering them work at reputable schools in the UAE. The schools involved are now warning educators to investigate the authenticity of any employment offers by visiting their websites and contacting them directly. Over the past year, the Dubai British School (DBS) has been approached by 20 people who have found online job advertisements that falsely used their name. "Many of the victims email us to let us know that the name of the principal is being used or that they have become suspicious of the communications they are receiving," said Mark Ford, head of DBS. He said this issue affected international schools around the world. "We started to get a few suspicious emails in early 2009, which became more frequentby June 2009," added Mr Ford. The scam targets job seekers applying for a position to teach English as a second language (ESL). They are contacted directly by someone claiming to be the principal. On responding to the offer, they are asked to share their passport details and transfer money for processing work permits and rent. Paul Coackley, the head of the British School Al Khubairat in the capital, said the school's name was used in similar fraud earlier this year. "These scams are going on all the time online," he said. "We got a few emails from people to check out the authenticity of the offer. We do not advertise for ESL teachers." Mr Coackley said they had referred the case to the police. Allen Hermiston, 53, from Canada, saw an advertisement on

representation for the American citizens of the District of Columbia. On the 7th the President returned, without his approval, the bill regulating Suffrage in the District. His objections to the bill were essentially these: Congress having the power of legislating for the District ought “to have a like respect for the will and interests of its inhabitants as is entertained by a State Legislature for the wishes and interests of the people for whom they legislate.” The people of the District, at a special election held in December, 1865, by a vote almost unanimous (7369 to 35) voted against the extension to negroes of the right of Suffrage. In 1860 the population of the District was 60,000 whites and 14,000 people of color; now there are 100,000 whites and 30,000between the two races which would prevent them from living together in a state of mutual friendliness.” He proceeds to argue that the extension to them of the power of suffrage is not necessary to enable persons of color to protect themselves in their rights and interests; and urges that there is great danger in the extension of this right to any new class of the population. He refers to the checks which are interposed in the way of the naturalization of emigrants, who are required, in addition to a residence of five years, to prove good moral character. It can not, he says, be supposed that the negroes, “from their previous condition of servitude are, as a class, as well informed as to the nature of our government

befriended with eye-patched Liza. Elen also had a unsettling feud against her another Vanadis Elizaveta Fomina of Lebus. Prior to her days as a mercenary, Elen once rescued Liza from her bullies in a Lebus village and originally befriended the Rainbow-Eyed girl by training her fighting skills within four days. As Liza's fighting skills were slightly improved, Elen encouraged her to focus on winning and build her self-confidence before leaving her village. [4]. In their second encounter however, Elen had completely forgotten about Liza due to her changed appearance and status much to Liza's dismay. Their rocky relationship strained further through various circumstances, from burning plagued-infected villages (which Elen cherished) by Liza to Rodant Abt's (Liza's father) death by Elen's blade for escaping trial;to make matters worse, Liza losther first duel against Elen and the result only fueled their bitter rivalry and shattered any remaining fragments of their friendship. Elen led the Zhcted Army to Dinant Plains with her 5,000 troops against 25,000 strong Brune Army, which was five times larger than her own. Despite being outnumbered, Elen's tactical ambush managed to disorient the Brune Army by "killing" the prince and easily decimating them in just one night. However, despite being victorious over her more powerful enemy, the Silver Flash Vanadis was disappointed as she deemed the battle boring, mostly because the Brune Army was weaker than she had anticipated.[5] Elen's fateful encounter with Tigre. While the Zhcted Army pursued the fleeing Brune soldiers, Elen and her escorts were examining the remains in Dinant Plains when a Brune archer

Levies officials by the Taliban and the targeting of a bus carrying pilgrims in Mastung that claimed another 20 lives, Khan said during the last five years, thousands of innocent people and security personnel had embraced martyrdom in various terrorist activities, which spoke volumes of the incumbent government’s ineptness and incompetence. The PTI chief urged the government to overcome its ineptness and play its constitutional role so that the people could live a peaceful life. He urged the government to realise its responsibilities and work out a well-thought-out plan by taking all political parties and stakeholders on board to weed the menace of terrorism out from the country forever. Khan said due to the uncertain security situation, foreign investors were not ready to invest in Pakistan, while Pakistani businessmen had been transferring their capital abroad, adding that during the last five years, thousands of small andbig industries had been shifted abroad, leaving thousands of employees jobless.

According to Motorway Police, the Motorway remained closed for traffic from Lahore to Pindi Bhattian interchange for several hours. Due to the closure of the Motorway, the traffic was diverted to the Grand Trunk (GT) Road. The police said further there was fog in most of the areas between Multan and Gujjar Khan. The police advised motorists to drive slowly and switch on fog lights while driving in the late night and morning hours during next few days.

On the "knock-and-drops" (the term is drawn from the South Africa case study, where such publications have similarly drawn "adspend" away from the daily press), see the comments of Victor Davidoff: "The Russian press is suffering a lot from newspapers given away for free and put in people's mailboxes. These newspapers get a lot of advertising money, and those that are smart include some information and basic news. This basic news satisfies, let's say, the news demands of 50 percent of the population." 41. For example, some of the glossier and better-funded Russian monthlies, based in Moscow and St. Petersburg, have chosen to print outside the country, usually in Finland.

keen to publicise. It is just too embarrassing, and not just for the hosts, but for the UN as well. When Felipe Calderon took office in December 2006 he promised to be the greenest ever Mexican president. And one of the ways he set out to prove his commitment was by planting trees. Lots of trees. He started with a pine, planted with his own bare hands alongside his young son and a speech announcing that there would be 250m more where that came from before the season was out. By the end of the year the government was claiming that it had not only met the target, but would be repeating the effort in 2008. It was a feat that led the United Nations Environment Programme to heappraise and prizes on Calderon. The problem was that by that time the original presidential tree, tendered with reverential care throughout the year, was one of the few left standing. The vast majority were dying or already dead. After months ignoring exposés in the local media, the official auditor came out with a report in March 2009 that concluded only 10% of the trees had survived. Worse, the massive reforestation effort had taken funds away from supporting the community-based management schemes. Though it never fully accepted the farce into which the massive reforestation programme had fallen, Calderon's government did appoint a new head of the national forestry commission who reassigned resources back to what works. Small communities looking after their own trees collectively. A vision of the future that harks

all inhabitants of a society to share their material possessions and to hold all things in common, without money or payment. With the complete abolition of private property, including that of private land, the English Levellers created a pool of property where all properties belonged in equal measure to everyone. Often seen as some of the first practising anarchists, the Digger movement is considered extremely early anarchist communism. === Modern American libertarianism === By around the start of the 20th century, the heyday of individualist anarchism had passed. H. L. Mencken and Albert Jay Nock were the first prominent figures in the United States to describe themselves as libertarians; they believed Franklin D. Roosevelt had co-opted the word liberal for his New Deal policies which they opposed and used libertarian to signify their allegiance to individualism. In 1914, Nock joined the staff of The Nation magazine, which at the timewas supportive of liberal capitalism. A lifelong admirer of Henry George, Nock went on to become co-editor of The Freeman from 1920 to 1924, a publication initially conceived as a vehicle for the single tax movement, financed by the wealthy wife of the magazine's other editor, Francis Neilson. Critic H. L. Mencken wrote that "[h]is editorials during the three brief years of the Freeman set a mark that no other man of his trade has ever quite managed to reach. They were well-informed and sometimes even learned, but there was never the slightest trace of pedantry in them". Executive Vice President of the Cato Institute David Boaz writes: "In 1943, at one of the lowest points for liberty and humanity in history, three remarkable women published books that could be said to have given birth to the modern libertarian movement".

Europe. In 1932 William Edward Allen's monograph A History of the Georgian People, came out in London, forming a new stage in the development of Kartvelian Studies in Britain. David Marshall Lang continiued Allen's work. Being the most productive Kartvelologist among British researchers, he directed the Caucasian Studies Department in London University for a long time, taught the Georgian language and delivered lectures on cardinal problems of the Georgian language, literature and history. From the standpoint of literary criticism special mention should be made of his numerous studies dealing with questions of the Georgian Balavariani. Among his translations of Georgian literary works and abridged English translations of Georgian original hagiographic works(25) and exact scholarly translations of both Georgian redactions of the Balavariani(26) are notable. Joseph Molitor studied Georgian ecclesiastical literature,namely: the Georgian translation of the New Testament in the context of the oldest versions of the Bible.(27) The study of Georian ecclesiastical literature was raised to a high level by the Belgian Kartvelologist Gerard Garitte (1914-1992). He studied Georgian works of translated ecclesiastical literature, and published their Georgian texts with Latin translations and comments. The scholar sought to establish the place of the Georgian versions among other redactions.(28) James Neville Birdsall successfully continued the study of Georgian literature, particularly, biblical texts. He studied the Georgian text of the New Testament, its provenance and relation to the oldest versions,(29) as well as the traces of the oldest redactions of the Bible in old Georgian writings.(30) Rustaveli's Vepkhistkaosani remained within the interest of European researchers. The well-known German linguist and Kartvelologist Gerhardt

"go-to" service in Constantinople when the city was under attack. "The GiC" is a he, and his username is GreekisChristian. He is strongly opinionated, and can be controversial at times, so he's gained the shorter monicker (as you will see with a few other posters on here as well). My theory was always that the Greeks had it because of the City and it stayed because the service (well, really the Theotokos to whom the service is dedicated) were credited with repulsing dozens of attacks on the City (before the 2 got to it). I don't know if I'd ever say that she *stopped* protecting the city... and the first sack of the city was before Florence (it was in 1204).

The music, workshops, performers and production were unworldly. The energy was perfect at every stage from sunrise until the late hours, from the Sunrise Yoga at 7am to the epic fire shows after 1am.

Hidehiko Nishiyama, a spokesman for the Japanese nuclear agency, said steam or smoke was seen on Friday morning at reactor 2, where the containment vessel is damaged. He said the authorities could yet bury the reactors in sand and concrete, as happened at Chernobyl. Nishiyama said the priority was adding water to the spent fuel pools. Asked about the "Chernobyl solution", he replied: "That solution is in the back of our minds, but we are focused on cooling the reactors down." However, the head of the US nuclear regulatory commission, Gregory Jaczko, warned on Thursday that the units may not cool down for weeks.

Responding to complaints from residents, VIPD and DPW on Tuesday, October 5, re- turned to the area across from Fish Trap Res- taurant in Cruz Baywhere vagrants and squat- ters have long set up camp. Officials cut back about five feet of bush, re- moved piles of trash and found a pit bull inside a plywood shack. The shack was dismantled and the dog was taken to the St. John Animal Care Center, according to VIPD officials. A week before the cleanup VIPD's K-9 unit moved through the area and chased out some of the occupants, explained DPW's St. John Deputy Director Ira Wade. "We've cleaned this area out before and the K-9 unit was up here last week," said Wade. "The first time we came up here about a year ago, it was like a country club.

About six months after Alice moved into her second apartment in Henderson, Wilson bought Alice a luxury car, which he had delivered to her mother’s house in Lancaster, California. At first, Alice rejected the car and told her mother to keep it; however, she later accepted the car, and her mother drove it to her apartment in Henderson. Alice insured the car using the address for her second apartment in Henderson. After finding Alice’s address through the car’s insurance information, Wilson again approached Alice unannounced in Henderson. She later moved to another apartment. In 2007, Wilson told Alice that hestill intended to divorce his wife, and he convinced her to restart their relationship. They began seeing each other again, alternating weekends between California and Nevada. 2. Prior Incidents of Violence In September 2008, Wilson and Alice’s relationship became violent after Wilson accused Alice of seeing someone else. During one incident, Wilson grabbed Alice’s hair and threw her to the floor. He jumped on her, pinned her down with his knees, and began punching her face, pulling her hair, and shaking her head. Throughout the next two days, Wilson did not let Alice leave his house, and he continued to attack her, at one point choking her until she fell unconscious. On the third day, while Wilson

The Albuquerque Journal reports (http://bit.ly/2y4z8HJ ) that on Friday, the museum will introduce a nearly to-scale replica of the Trinity Tower, which held the bomb, called the Gadget. Jim Walther, executive director of the museum, says the tower comes from an old 50s-era fire observation tower taken down from a forest in Alabama. It's about 98 feet (30 meters) tall and made of 15,000 pounds (6,800 kilograms) of steel. The Gadget replica will hang from a pulley as if in the midst of being pulled up into the tower prior

The container had been shipped from the port of Zeebrugge in Belgium to Essex, police said. The alleged driver, Maurice Robinson, 25, of Northern Ireland, was accused of being part of an international people-smuggling ring. He pleaded guilty in a London court on Monday to charges related to the plotting of illegal immigration but he wasn’t asked to enter pleas to 39 counts of manslaughter or conspiracy to traffic people. Police said he drove the cab of the truck to the English port of Purfleet, where it picked up the container, which had arrived by ferry from Belgium.

In 2011 Mr. Obama said America was "leaving behind a sovereign, stable and self-reliant Iraq," and Mr. Biden proclaimed Iraq "one of the great achievements of this administration." Mr. Obama then committed a massive error in judgment by withdrawing all U.S. troops.

existence.The first philosophical cosmologists reacted against, or sometimes built upon, popular mythical conceptions that had existed in the Greek world for some time. Some of these popular conceptions can be gleaned from the poetry of Homer and Hesiod. In Homer, the Earth was viewed as a flat disk afloat on the river of Oceanus and overlooked by a hemispherical sky with sun, moon, and stars. The Sun (Helios) traversed the heavens as a charioteer and sailed around the Earth in a golden bowl at night. Sun, earth, heaven, rivers, and winds could be addressed in prayers and called to witness oaths. Natural fissures were popularly regarded as entrances to the subterranean house of Hades and his predecessors, home of the dead. Influences from other cultures always afforded new themes. ==== Greek pantheon ==== According to Classical-era mythology, after the overthrow of the Titans, the new pantheon of gods andgoddesses was confirmed. Among the principal Greek gods were the Olympians, residing on Mount Olympus under the eye of Zeus. (The limitation of their number to twelve seems to have been a comparatively modern idea.) Besides the Olympians, the Greeks worshipped various gods of the countryside, the satyr-god Pan, Nymphs (spirits of rivers), Naiads (who dwelled in springs), Dryads (who were spirits of the trees), Nereids (who inhabited the sea), river gods, Satyrs, and others. In addition, there were the dark powers of the underworld, such as the Erinyes (or Furies), said to pursue those guilty of crimes against blood-relatives. In order to honor the Ancient Greek pantheon, poets composed the Homeric Hymns (a group of thirty-three songs). Gregory Nagy regards "the larger Homeric Hymns as simple preludes (compared with Theogony), each of which invokes one god".The gods of Greek mythology are described as having essentially corporeal but

under a federal amnesty program. In 1989, while his residency application was pending, he pleaded guilty in Alameda County Superior Court to violating Health and Safety Code section 11351, possession of cocaine for sale. As a result, the court placed him on probation for three years. At that time, he was told the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS)[1] had not placed a deportation hold on him, although the prosecutor noted that there *1067 "[s]hould be" one. The INS was apparently untroubled by his felony conviction, however, for in 1990 it granted him lawful permanent resident status. In 2005, Villa applied to the INS to renew his permanent resident status. The INS instead arrested him and served him with a notice to appear for removal proceedings. The only basis for77, T.I.A.S.

The trial court denied the petition, first finding the court that had taken his plea in 1989 had in fact advised him of its immigration consequences. (The record of the plea proceeding confirms this conclusion.) The trial court also ruled Villa had failed to allege facts demonstrating ineffective assistance of counsel and that the proof of his crime was "extremely strong," presumably rendering any treaty violation harmless. Villa appealed, raising the issues of the alleged ineffectiveness of counsel and the treaty violation. The Court of Appeal rejected both claims, finding that the alleged treaty violation should have been raised on direct appeal, citing Breard v. Greene (1998)

MSM84 Labrador Glacials Summary – MSM84 June 18th to July 17th, 2019 St. John’s (Canada) – St. John’s (Canada) The Labrador shelf, located off the eastern Canadian coast, is a key area for paleoclimate and paleoceanographic research. The Canadian hinterland was covered by the Laurentide Ice Sheet during glacials. During phases of ice melt at the transition from glacials to interglacials, large amounts of fresh water were released into the Labrador Sea and North Atlantic Ocean. This release of fresh water occurred through fjords and adjacent troughs Mehr that were excavated by ice streams during the glacials. In addition, these fresh water pulses have a profound influence on the strength of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation, which in turn significantly influences the climate of the Northern Hemisphere. Our seismic source infront of an iceberg (picture by F. Gross). So far, the dynamics of the Laurentide Ice Sheet were reconstructed based on marine sediment cores that were taken mostly far offshore from the North Atlantic. This area was never directly covered by the Laurentide Ice Sheet. Direct evidence from glacial features on the shelf was largely missing. Therefore, the goal of expedition MSM84 was the investigation of the glacial history of the Labrador shelf and hence the glacial history of the eastern part of the Laurentide Ice Sheet. In addition to the Labrador shelf area, Lake Melville, a small inlet into the eastern Canadian coast was investigated.

After leaving the CIA, Barr moved to Georgia, where he practiced law and became active in the Republican Party, serving as county chair.[2][14] Barr made an unsuccessful bid for the Georgia House of Representatives in 1984.[2] In 1986 Barr married his third wife, Jerilyn Dobbins,[2][3] who was later known as Jeri Barr.[5] Bob Barr's web site stated in 2008 that Jeri and he have four children and six grandchildren.[5] It's unclear which, if any, of these children are issue from their marriage. Congressional career Barr sought the Republican Party nomination for U.S. Senate in 1992, but lost the primary election to Paul Coverdell.[21] The primary was very close, with Barr losing by fewer than 1,600 votes in a runoff election.[21] Subsequently, Coverdell came in behind incumbent Senator Wyche Fowler, in the general election, but the 3% showing by a Libertarian candidate (Jim Hudson) forced a runoff, whichCoverdell won. In Congress, Barr became famous for his "dour" image and told constituents, "You don't send me to Washington to smile."[14] Georgia's congressional districts were reorganized by the Democratic-controlled Georgia legislature ahead of the 2002 elections for the 108th Congress.[25] As part of the legislature's effort to get more Democrats elected from the state, Barr's district was dismantled even though Georgia gained two districts. He was drawn into the same district as fellow Republican John Linder. The new district was numerically Barr's district—the 7th—but contained most of the territory from Linder's old 11th District. This move profited Democrats by leading to the inevitable defeat of an incumbent Republican (i.e., either Barr or Linder).[26] Recognizing Barr's precarious situation, the Libertarian Party seized on the opportunity to oust one of the federal drug war's most vocal proponents (Barr), and ran TV ads criticizing Barr's opposition to medical marijuana during the Republican

"Fuck that," Pat said as Jamie pulled the rubber slowly and painfully up her torso. "The little slut's got the best ass I've ever seen. And those legs are unbelievable. They'll fuck her until they can't stand up, much less play a fucking football game." Pulling the rubber suit over her tits was the most painful part of all. The rubber crushed her perky tits, flattened them against her chest and spread them until they looked like two soft, comfortable pillows. There were holes for her nipples, and with her tits crushed so cruelly by the tight rubber, the tiny nubs of flesh swelled and throbbed. Her nipples spiked out unbelievably hard and long. Pat leaned over andcollapsed on the floor, the rubber suit finally on. The three cadets gathered close around her. "Shit," Dave said, raspy-voiced with lust. "Look at the bitch now." Every line and curve of Jamie's sleek, sexy body was molded by the rubber suit. Her long, lean legs, full, curvy ass, hourglass waist, and high, proud tits all looked as though they had been coated in a thin layer of shining black paint. The plump bulge of her pussy jutted obscenely through the tight rubber. Even the way the exhausted, sexy cheerleader moved, her svelte body writhing slowly, sinuously with pain and fatigue, added to the sexiness of what the boys were seeing. Each of them was tempted to call the other boys back in and let the gangbang continue. A bitch as sexy as Jamie needed constant fucking. But there was something else she

corporate titans to intellectuals to politicians. Outside the Cobb Centre, they were doing dragon dances, and many ladies were in lovely, shining Asian outfits. What could this mean? That the opening opera was Turandot, Puccini’s immortal tale of China. The Atlanta Opera was using an old, sumptuous production owned by the Dallas Opera. It has a touch of Zeffirelli to it. Atlanta’s director was Bliss Hebert, and its choreographer, please know, was Lee Harper. Turn her names around and you have one of America’s favorite novelists. In the title role of Turandot was the soprano Lori Phillips, who got through the role admirably. Turandot is known as a voice-killer, or a career-wrecker. Ms. Phillips seemed unkilled and unwrecked. The Calaf, tenor Philip Webb, sometimes sounded pinched, and he couldme—maybe for the first time, after a lifetime with Turandot—that Liù may have the best music in the opera. The Timur, bass Steven Humes, was dignified, noble, and, in brief, just right. Ping, Pang, and Pong, Puccini’s remarkable threesome, were all engaging. The chorus is a key performer in this opera, and Atlanta’s performed laudably. Its Italian was not the best, however, and, in fact, it was not a great night for Italian all around. The conductor, Arthur Fagen, was competent in the pit. And the Atlanta Opera Orchestra has some very good players in it—pretty much all of the principals. It can be said in a sentence: The whole of this opening-night performance was greater than the sum of its parts—which is what we want, on any operatic evening.

in her heart she was true as steel. She loved bright colors, and everything else that was gay and brilliant. She had gathered the roses; perhaps some one else had her share of thorns. The fair, dainty lady had a great desire to see Mr. Thorne. She had seen one of his pictures at the house of one of her friends a simple little thing, but it had charmed her. It was merely a bouquet of English wild flowers; but then they were so naturally painted! The bluebells looked as though they had just been gathered. One almost fancied dew drops on the delicate wild roses; a spray of pink hawthorn, daisies and golden buttercups mingled with woodbine and meadow-sweet, told sweet stories of the English meadows. "Whoever painted that," said the fair countess, "loves flowers, and knows what English flowersmean." The countess did not rest until Ronald had been introduced to her, and then she would know his wife. Her grave, silent husband smiled at her evident admiration of the handsome young Englishman. She liked his clear, Saxon face and fair hair; she liked his simple, kindly manner, so full of chivalry and truth. She liked pretty Dora, too; but there were times when the dainty, fastidious countess looked at the young wife in wonder, for, as she said one evening to her husband: "There is something in Mrs. Thorne that puzzles me--she does not always speak or look like a lady--" Few days passed without bringing Ronald and Dora to the Villa Rosali. It would have been better for Ronald had he never left his pretty home on the banks of the Arno. Chapter X Going into society increased the

Two weeks earlier, Jason Cruz and wife Dynel Cruz had just relocated back to Colorado from spending several years in the El Dorado Kansas area, which apparently indicates that Jason and Dynel Cruz then held an "exemplary" status with the El Dorado Kansas Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses. Dynel Cruz also had married Christopher Ross Lane, of Pueblo, Colorado, in 2010. *************** JEHOVAH'S WITNESS CRIMINALS STICK TOGETHER NEW SOUTH WALES v. ABRAHAM RODRIGUEZ, NEW SOUTH WALES v.

She has taken up the challenge and channeled the opportunities that she has been given to raise her voice as a champion for the dignity of all. Ms. Tutu's professional experience ranges from being a development consultant in West Africa, to being program coordinator for programs on Race and Gender and Gender-based Violence in Education at the African Gender Institute at the University of Cape Town. In addition, she has taught at the Universities of Hartford and Connecticut and Brevard College in North Carolina. Ms. Tutu started her public speaking as a college student at Berea College in Kentuckyin the 1970's when she was invited to speak at churches, community groups and colleges and universities about her experiences growing up in apartheid South Africa. Since that time, she has become a much sought-after speaker to groups as varied as business associations, professional conferences, elected officials and church and civic organizations. In addition to speaking, Ms. Tutu is a consultant to two organizations that reflect the breadth of her involvement in issues of human rights.

Three years after the nuclear catastrophe in Fukushima one observes a certain momentum with regard to lifetime extensions as well as some interest in new building of nuclear power plants. Advocates of nuclear power argue in term of low-cost electricity generation, a secure supply as well as a contribution against climate change. The Reference Scenario of the European Commission - which sets the agenda on the EU Climate and Energy Strategy to 2030 - implies massive new buildings of nuclear power plants, not less than seven are forecasted for Poland alone. In Germany, too, voices are re-appearing that criticize the upcoming nuclear phase-out. However, DIW Berlin clearly derives that there is no Renaissance of nuclear power under way: the plans to construct new plants are concentrated in afew countries, mainly China. But foremost, the discussion neglects that nuclear power has never in history been produced economically, taking into account the costs of risks for mankind and the environment, the scrapping of nuclear waste, let alone the infrastructure of R & D and the corresponding national innovation system. The question where to store the highly radioactive waste is of yet unresolved. Phasing out nuclear is the safest and cost efficient strategy. The European discussion should not focus on analytical models that neglect a large part of the economic cost. Germany can continue its nuclear phase-out until 2022, without risking the supply security; this also holds for the upcoming closure of the Grafenrheinfeld nuclear power plant in 2015. Questions of scrapping old nuclear power plants and of

introduced to his music through The Cherry Faced Lurchers’ album Live At Jamesons in the mid-Eighties. It was a raw recording that captured a band absolutely rocking all the way out there, hard and tight yet somehow also loose and swinging, the songs full of soul and sardonic wit. It felt like party music that also conveyed despair and anger at the madness of a very fucked-up society; this was South Africa in the dying years of apartheid. Soon after hearing the album for the first time, I saw the band live at what was then the University of Natal in Durban. As is often the way, it was even better than the recording, viscerally loud and wild, and the whole place lurched like crazy. At one point duringFact, was the soundtrack of middle-class white kids getting stoned and drunk, most of them blissfully ignorant of or actively indifferent to what was going on around them. If anything, the music of Rodriguez was yet another form of escapism that helped many white South Africans avoid confronting the realities of apartheid. The Fun’s Not Over is the polar opposite of Searching for Sugar Man. I thought of them together only because they are both documentaries about music in South Africa. But where Sugar Man peddles bullshit and historical revisionism, Cross’s movie is a totally honest account that reflects the message of Phillips’s music. It was political, but in a very nuanced way. This was the music of white people who understood the troubling ambiguities of being privileged by a

health activities for children (aged between six and 18 years) between February and June 2018, MSF teams observed that nearly a quarter of the children (18 out of 74) had self-harmed, attempted suicide or had thought about committing suicide. Other child patients suffer from panic attacks, anxiety, aggressive outbursts, constant nightmares or voluntarily become mute. The report by Theirworld, Safe Schools: The Hidden Crisis, showed that by 2030, 622 million – nearly a third of all children that will be alive at that point – will live in countries where education is under threat from war, endemic high violence, or environmental threats. In the absence of increased investment and delivery of safe schools and learning environments, three of every four young people in these countries are projected to beunequipped with the skills to participate fully in society and the economy. Education Cannot Wait is the first global movement and fund dedicated to education in emergencies and protracted crises. It was established during the World Humanitarian Summit in 2016 by international humanitarian and development aid actors, along with public and private donors, to help reposition education as a priority on the humanitarian agenda, usher in a more collaborative approach among actors on the ground and foster additional funding to ensure that every crisis-affected child and young person is in school and learning.

He did not follow the back trail to the Mafa River, but struck out in a south-easterly direction into the mountainous country that forms an almost impregnable protection for the stronghold of the Kaji. Deep gorges and precipitous cliffs retarded the progress of the ape-man; so that it was over three days before he reached his objective: a point near the headwaters of the Mafa a full day's march to the east of the City of Kaji. He had foreseen that Mafka might expect him to follow Wood, which would offer the magician an opportunity to have Tarzan waylaid and destroyed at some point upon the trail where he would be helpless against theonslaught of a well-placed detachment of Kaji warrior-women; and so he had elected to come upon Kaji from an unexpected direction and depend upon his animal cunning and his great strength and agility to carry him into the very presence of the malign power the destruction of which appeared to be the only means whereby Wood and his companions might be set at liberty permanently. But above all, his success depended upon the verity of his conviction that he was immune to the supernatural powers of Mafka; though upon this point there was one thing that troubled him; it seemed to him that Mafka must have known of his befriending of Wood. The very fact that he had taken Wood from him suggested that. Yet this might have been accomplished by means of spies, which the American had specifically

In high-profile speeches, the Republican who governed Virginia from 1998 to 2002 is opining on what he believes ails the national GOP. He plans to visit the early nominating states of Iowa and New Hampshire next month, including a stop at the conservative summit organized by Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa).

Elected during a time of economic prosperity, Gilmore helped deliver Virginia for George W. Bush (R) in the 2000 presidential contest. But as his state’s economy stalled in the wake of the terror attacks of 2001, lawmakers from Gilmore’s party downsized his plan to phase out the car tax. Gilmore wanted to use state funds to reimburse car owners for the vehicle tax they were paying to cities and counties. But state lawmakers said he could only refund a portion of the tax. He finished his term (Virginia law does not allow governors to run for reelection) on a down note. Warner, a Democrat, was elected to replace him. Over the past year, Gilmore has

"That's all right, Harry. Truly," Severus assured her, pressing his lips to her scar for emphasis—only to pull away with a gasp as an arc of green-black energy pulsed between her mark . . . and his own. He was not permitted time to process the meaning of this connection, for suddenly Minerva was there crooning comforting nothings into Harry's ear as she lifted the girl into a standing position. She made certain to keep the cloak firmly wrapped around her young charge. Harry's long, black, glossy hair was bound in a braid that fell over her left shoulder and dropped past her broomstick toward the earth. She was high overHogwarts, leaning into her handle and abstractedly making her braid swing in little circles.

Harry giggled at the memory of finding the two Seventh Years underneath the Quidditch bleachers almost done in by pudding with a mind of its own, but her mirth soon faded.

Now the MB seems unwittingly to have brought that hostility to an end, as both sides join forces to oppose it. Egypt Independent This week's Eid al-Adha holidays saw 727 cases of verbal and sexual harassment reported across Egypt, typically taking place in public gathering places, malls and movie theaters, beaches and squares, said security sources on Monday. The “Seen Harassment” activist initiative spotted several cases in downtown Cairo, especially on Talaat Harb Street, and accused Prime Minister Hesham Qandil of failing to take necessary security measures to prevent such violations. The initiative was launched earlier this month by six women's rights organizations against sexual harassment that providefree legal support for women who are exposed to harassment or physical violence. In a report issued on Sunday, the initiative described three cases of harassment that took place in front of police officers who failed to react or intervene. The cases included a 17-year-old girl being harassed by a soldier near Qasr al-Nil Bridge; a young man in his twenties violently pulling a girl by her hair and kissing her; and a veiled girl being harassed while walking with her fiancé, all before the eyes of the police who did not interfere. The report added that a female member of the initiative was harassed while recording an interview with a television channel in Talaat Harb Square. The initiative criticized the manner the police deal with harassment complaints as improper and typically allowing offenders to get away with the abuse. The activists

No financial statements of Snow Enterprises, LLC, were introduced. Kimberly did introduce, however, one of Brian's credit applications for the mill project, from September 1997, on which Brian listed personal assets in excess of $300,000.00 including equity in the logging company of $175,000.00. When confronted with the apparent discrepancy between the $34,000.00 officer's salary listed on the July and August statements and his claim of having been paid only $500.00 per week, Brian explained that the officer's salary figure on the earlier reports mistakenly included the salary paid to his new wife, who was helping him with the business, as well as the salary paid to himself.He insisted that he had received no more than $26,000.00 for all of 1997 and that the logging company had operated at a loss. The reduction in his income entitled him, he claimed, to have his child-support obligation reduced. Kimberly claimed, and the commissioner agreed, that the logging company's earning potential was more accurately reflected by the July and August 1997 statements than by the year-end statement Brian submitted. She noted that the company's equity, as reflected in the July balance statement and on Brian's September credit application, had increased significantly since the divorce and also that Brian had been able to afford the expensive hobby or side business of competing in rodeos.

One year after San Antonio expanded its non-discrimination ordinance to protect LGBT people, opponents' predictions that the measure would curtail religious liberty and free speech haven't come true. On September 5, 2013, San Antonio's city council voted to extend non-discrimination protections to LGBT residents in housing, employment, public accommodations, city contracts, and board appointments. The ordinance was approved despite a right-wing misinformation campaign propagated by local anti-LGBT activists and national conservative media, including Fox News, Glenn Beck, and The Washington Times. Opponents of the ordinance asserted that the ordinance could ban Christians from holding public office or winning city contracts, imperil the free speech rights of conservative opponents of LGBT equality, or even impose "criminal penalties" on anti-LGBT business owners. Those claims persisted even though the ordinance explicitly protected againstA 2012 study of local non-discrimination ordinances by UCLA's Williams Institute found “almost uniform compliance” with the ordinances, with no localities reporting spikes in frivolous litigation. Implementing The Ordinance Then-Mayor Julian Castro was a fervent supporter of the expanded non-discrimination ordinance last year. But when he left office in July of 2014 to become Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, he was succeeded by Ivy Taylor, one of the three council members who voted against the measure's passage. While Taylor's opposition to the ordinance's LGBT protections raised red flags for San Antonio's LGBT community, spokesman Cary Clack told Equality Matters that the new mayor is committed to moving forward with its implementation.

contemporary world-problems. And as his opinion of the normal species became more and more unflattering, he began to turn his attention to the search for other individuals of his own calibre. Though all these activities were pursued together, it will be convenient to deal with them separately. The onset of John's adolescence was very late compared with that of the normal human being, and its duration was extremely prolonged. At fourteen he was physically comparable with a normal child of ten. When he died, at twenty-three, he was still in appearance a lad of seventeen. Yet, though physically he was always far behind his years, mentally, and not merely in intelligence but also in temperament and sensibility, he often seemed to be incredibly advanced beyond his actual age. This mental precocity, I should say, was entirely due to imaginative power. Whereasthe normal child clings to the old interests and attitudes long after more developed capacities have actually begun to awaken in him, John seemed to seize upon every budding novelty in his own nature and "force" it into early bloom by the sheer intensity and heat of his imagination. This was obvious, for instance, in the case of his sexual experience. It should be said that his parents were for their time exceptional in their attitude to sex in their children. All three grew up unusually free from the common shames and obsessions. Doe took a frankly physiological view of sexual development; and Pax treated the sexual curiosity and experimentation of her children in a perfectly open and humorous way. Thus John may be said to have had an exceptionally good start. But the use which he made of it was

Oral health disparities in children of immigrants: dental caries experience at enrollment and during follow-up in the New England Children's Amalgam Trial. Previous research shows increased dental decay among immigrants, but little is known about the oral health of the growing population of children of immigrants. We compared the children of immigrants to the children of US-born caregivers in their caries experience at enrollment and their new caries increments during the 5-year New England Children's Amalgam Trial (NECAT). NECAT recruited 283 Boston-area children aged 6 to 10 with untreated caries and offered free semiannual preventive and restorative dental care during the trial. Sociodemographic factors and caregiver immigrant status were assessed through interviews. Multivariate negative binomial models evaluated the association between caregiver immigrant status and clinically assessed carious surfaces. Fortyrepeated the colonel languidly, sinking back on his pillow and putting his hands under his head. "Really I don't think we have such an article in the outfit! Have we, Roberts?" "No, sir," replied the latter promptly. Oscar could hardly believe his ears. One of the most necessary implements--one that is used in African travel as often as a spade or a pick--had been left behind. The colonel might as well have come away from Maritzburg without his "battery." "Harris said we didn't need any," added Roberts. "That wasn't the only falsehood he told you," said Oscar in disgust. "How do you suppose you are going to get that wheel out of there?" "I don't know, I am sure, unless we pull it out with the oxen," drawled the colonel.

16, the LRA camped at Kiliwa and killed a number of people in the village before moving on the next day, December 17, back toward Makombo and the Uele River. Early on the morning of December 18, the LRA group, together with an estimated 250 abductees, crossed the Uele River at Mavanzonguda, the same place they had crossed four days earlier. Once on the opposite bank of the river, the girls and women they had captured were forced to wash the uniforms the LRA had worn throughout the four-day operation. The LRA then forcibly marched the large group of adults and children off into the remote and unpopulated savannah terrain north of the river. They left behind them a trail of death and communities devastated and traumatized by the attack. March into the Wilderness In the days following the river crossing,the LRA forced their captives to march about 20 kilometers a day. According to those who later escaped, the LRA separated the children from the adults and kept the children close to the commander of the group. The captives remained tied up to each other at the waist with ropes or metal wire in human chains of between 5 to 15 captives, also sleeping tied up. The LRA began to conduct military parades each morning, when the combatants paid homage to the commander, stood for military inspection, and were given their orders for the day. This daily military routine was conducted in front of the children who had been taken captive, while the adult abductees were excluded from the ceremony. The LRA also began to conduct daily counts of their captives.[60] The 17-year-old boy abducted in Tapili and held

Holly trends carefully atop the roof, but keeps being zapped by loose electricity cables and keeps flickering to her toon self. She makes it to the top and reaches for the spike, pulling it free and releasing hundreds of toon pencil sketches and dead toons into the real world. A totally accurate cartoon version of Gabriel Byrne Jack makes a grab for the spike and turns into a superhero version of himself, so he flexes his muscles about a bit and Holly kicks him in the crotch before going for a ride on one of the toons. Jack's character is nowvoiced by a totally different person and he grabs the spike, it's worth noting that his character has the buttocks of Powdered Toast Man.

the strength of the women and his faith.” In 2015, Mukwege was a main speaker at the national Swedish Pentecostal conference, Nyhem, where he shared the following: “From this place, people have been praying for my beloved country and tonight it is a privilege for me to stand here as a fruit of your prayers. My congregation belongs to the Congolese Pentecostal Movement Cepac, and with about one million members it is a fruit of your prayers. The Panzi hospital is a fruit of your prayers.” Mukwege's combination of a bold, Spirit-filled faith and a solid commitment to peacemaking and women's right is not an anomaly. He represents what sociologists Donald Miller and Tetsunao Yamamori call “progressive Pentecostals,” Christians who both claim to experience miracles and work for social changewithin their communities. This form of Pentecostalism is radically changing societies around the world. Dena Freeman at London School of Economics points out in the anthology Pentecostalism and Development: Pentecostal churches are often rather more effective change agents than are development NGOs…they are exceptionally effective at bringing about personal transformation and empowerment, they provide the moral legitimacy for a set of behaviour changes that would otherwise clash with local values, and they radically reconstruct families and communities to support these new values and new behaviours. Historically, Pentecostalism originated from the Holiness Movement, which had a clear emphasis on social justice and helping the poor. It also had a high view of gender equality, allowing women to preach. This was also true for early Pentecostalism, even though it quickly conformed to the

The Coca-Cola Company's headquarters are located in Atlanta, Georgia, where the drink was first concocted around 1884. Although Coke's inventor, John Pemberton, was not a shrewd marketer of his drink, the ownership of Coke eventually passed to Asa Candler, whose company remains the producer of Coke today. Candler's successful marketing, continued by his successors such as Robert Woodruff, established Coke as a major soft drink first in the United States and later around the world. Originally designed to be sold at soda fountains, Coca-Cola was later sold in bottles, whose distinctive shape have become a part of the drink's branding.

that Lord Buddha made three visits to Sri Lanka in which he rids the island of forces inimical to Buddhism and instructs deities to protect the ancestors of the Sinhalese (Prince Vijaya and his followers from North India) to enable the establishment and flourishing of Buddhism in Sri Lanka. This myth has led to the widely held Sinhalese Buddhist belief that the country is Sihadipa (island of the Sinhalese) and Dhammadipa (the island ennobled to preserve and propagate Buddhism). In other words, Sinhalese Buddhist nationalists maintain that they are the Buddha's chosen people, and that the island of Sri Lanka is the Buddhist promised land. The Mahavamsa also describes an account of the Buddhist warrior king Dutthagamani, his army, and 500 Buddhist monks battling and defeating the Tamil king Elara, who had come from South India and usurped power in Anuradhapura (the island's capital at the time). WhenDuthagamani laments over the thousands he has killed, the eight arhats (Buddha's enlightened disciples) who come to console him reply that no real sin has been committed by him because he has only killed Tamil unbelievers who are no better than beasts, then go on to say: "thou wilt bring glory to the doctrine of the Buddha in manifold ways; therefore cast away care from the heart, O ruler of men".The Dutthagamani's campaign against king Elara was not to defeat injustice, as the Mahavamsa describes Elara as a good ruler, but to restore Buddhism through a united Sri Lanka under a Buddhist monarch, even by the use of violence. The Mahavamsa story about Buddha's visit to Sri Lanka where he (referred to as the "Conqueror") subdues forces inimical to Buddhism, the Yakkhas (depicted as the non-human inhabitants of the island), by striking "terror to their hearts" and

Get the Middle East oil resources out of independent national hands and into US-controlled hands. The military occupation of Iraq was the first major step in this US strategy. Control of Russian energy reserves, however, was Washington's ultimate "prize". Deconstruction of Russia: The 'ultimate prize'For obvious military and political reasons, Washington could not admit openly that its strategic focus, since the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, had been the dismemberment or deconstruction of Russia, and gaining effective control of its huge oil and gas resources, the "ultimate prize". The Russian Bear still had formidable military means, however dilapidated, and she still had nuclear teeth. In the mid-1990s, Washington began a deliberate process of bringing one after the other former satellite Soviet states into not just the European Union, but into the Washington-dominated North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). By 2004 Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Romania,Slovakia and Slovenia all had been admitted into NATO, and the Republic of Georgia was being groomed to join. This surprising spread of NATO, to the alarm of some in Western Europe, as well as to Russia, had been part of the strategy advocated by Cheney's friends at the PNAC, in their "Rebuilding America's Defenses" report and even before. Already in 1996, PNAC member and Cheney crony, Bruce Jackson, then a top executive with US defense giant Lockheed Martin, was head of the US Committee to Expand NATO, later renamed the US Committee on NATO, a very powerful Washington lobby group. The US Committee to Expand NATO also included PNAC members Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Stephen Hadley and Robert Kagan. Kagan's wife is Victoria Nuland, now the US ambassador to NATO. From 2000-2003 she was a foreign-policy advisor to Cheney. Hadley, a hardline hawk close to Cheney, was

"Goddddddddd!!!!!" she screamed - her eyes practically popping out of their sockets. Then, to her great relief, Prue's knuckles finally slipped inside, easing the painful pressure against her widely-stretched cunt opening. She could feel her sister's fingers wriggle around inside her tight, wet fuck-tunnel before forming a fist. "There we go... all the way inside your slutty snatch," Prue whispered huskily in her ear. "That wasn't so bad, now was it? And for this brief moment of pain you'll be rewarded with the fucking of a lifetime." Piper was only able to grunt in response as her sister's fist had begun to twist around inside her tight sheath, the hard knuckles scraping against hersoft vaginal wall sending jolts of pain/pleasure signals to her lust-muddled mind. Her sister's hand pushed deep inside her, then drew slowly back before thrusting in again. Slowly, painfully, Prue's fist began to pump. And as it forced her open it gradually moved faster and harder. Though painful at first, her pussy, having already experienced a huge cucumber just a short while ago, quickly got used to Prue's pounding fist. Piper's eyes closed as she shuddered from the hard, powerful thrusting of the big fist inside her belly.

(fn. 22) In the peripheral river valleys the land is low-lying (c. 75 m.) but a ridge of higher ground extends from Coursehill Farm in the north-west to Cokethorpe Park in the south-east, its highest point being 96 m. near the centre of the parish. Alluvium overlies flood plain gravel in the river valleys, and gravel extends westwards from the river Windrush beneath the villages of Ducklington and Hardwick, into Cokethorpe Park, including the sites of chapel and house, and, further south, across much of the former Hardwick field towards the Breaches.

agree to carry out whatever secret missions the Germans sent him. Not surprisingly, he agreed. He spent the next three months in training, learning espionage and spycraft. He added the use of invisible inks and wireless communications to his already lengthy skill set, and the German spymasters were so impressed with him that he quickly got his own code name and designation: Fritzchen, V-6523. Finally, it was go-time; on a chilly night in December 1942, Chapman parachuted into Cambridge carrying a radio, a pistol, some invisible ink, some cash, and a cyanide capsule. And from there, he walked right into a local police station and turned himself in. He told the Littleport officers that he had been imprisoned on the Channel Islands then had become a German spy, and in all fairness, that had to be an extremely unlikely tale. Accounts suggest that he did, indeed, have trouble convincing themthat he was telling the truth, but this is where MI5 stepped in. Bletchley Park had already intercepted communications regarding his presence on British soil, and they saw an opportunity. So they made him another offer: work for MI5. He agreed to that, too, and it was his British handlers who gave him his most infamous nickname: ZigZag. Under the watchful eye of MI5, Chapman radioed his German handler and told him all was well, and that he had made it safely into British territory. The plan was to go ahead, and he was going to blow up the De Havilland aircraft factory, putting a damper on the manufacture of the fast, agile new Mosquito fighter planes. MI5, of course, couldn't allow that to happen, and here's where the story crosses into a territory that sounds more like something that's the responsibility of an overzealous screenwriter.

FC St. Pauli began to foment something approaching a cult, thriving on its reputation as a place for down-and-outs, immigrants, squatters, students, outsiders. You can make any connections you see fit, but the upshot of all this was that the denizens of St. Pauli contrived to react against the right-wing hooliganism that prevailed throughout Europe at the time, campaigning on progressive issues and fostering inclusivity. Admirable, but for a while it seemed they might pay a price for being so resolutely out of step. The 1990s saw the club yo-yoing between Bundesligas 1 and 2, and in 2003 they were relegated to the Regionalliga Nord, which was at the time the third tier of football in Germany.

This was the correct decision. The Gegengerade is built of the same red brick and repeats the green cladding around edges of the roof, with plexiglass panels in between to protect from the elements.

Each one of his children inherited five hundred acres of land in the Territory besides his own share. Mary E. Walker, his wife, died March, 1901.

family into a house shared with the Schiffs, another fabulously wealthy banking dynasty whose most famous progeny would be Jacob Schiff. Mayer Amschel Rothschild had five sons and five daughters. He trained each son in the science of moneylending, and eventually placed each in a central bank in a major city in Europe: Amschel Mayer stayed in Frankfurt, Salomon Mayer went to Vienna, Nathan Mayer went to London, Kalmann (Karl) Mayer went to Naples, and Jacob (James) Mayer went to Paris. Remaining in close communication, the five Rothschild sons became the first internationalists whose only loyalties were to money, power, and the Rothschild name. Central bankers had adopted fractional reserve banking, the art and science of lending more money than the bank had in reserve—in effect, creating money out of thin air—and then charging interest on it. This had proven to bewhich sooner or later must have an end …” And later: “A government of our own is our natural right.” Common Sense was widely read throughout the colonies. A Declaration of Independence was inevitable, as was the war for independence which followed. Advertisement Thirteen colonies became a Perpetual Union of sovereign states under the Articles of Confederation—a document creating a highly decentralized society rooted in the assumption that concentrations of power are dangerous. By the mid-1780s, however, the elites within the states were grousing that the federal government established under the Articles was too weak—and to be sure, a number of volatile issues both within and between the states had erupted which it was unclear could be resolved peacefully under the authority of the Articles. It wasn’t clear that the Perpetual Union established under the Articles was sustainable. In 1787 the states sent representatives

To further discussion on economic development topics, the Texas Lyceum is publishing the 2006 Journal in conjunction with its public conference held in San Antonio in November 2006. The goal of both the conference and the Journal is to stimulate the discussion between public and private sector stakeholders on the future economic development activities in the State. Overview Economic development activities have helped diversify and grow the burgeoning economy of the State of Texas. The multifaceted components that go into creating a successful economic development policy are wide ranging, and share varying degrees of support throughout the State.

they could get together. Beginning with the Odrysians, he first called out the Thracian tribes subject to him between Mounts Haemus and Rhodope and the Euxine and Hellespont; next the Getae beyond Haemus, and the other hordes settled south of the Danube in the neighbourhood of the Euxine, who, like the Getae, border on the Scythians and are armed in the same manner, being all mounted archers. Besides these he summoned many of the hill Thracian independent swordsmen, called Dii and mostly inhabiting Mount Rhodope, some of whom came as mercenaries, others as volunteers; also the Agrianes and Laeaeans, and the rest of the Paeonian tribes in his empire, at the confines of which these lay, extending up to the Laeaean Paeonians and the river Strymon, which flows from Mount Scombrus through the country of the Agrianes and Laeaeans; there theempire of Sitalces ends and the territory of the independent Paeonians begins. Bordering on the Triballi, also independent, were the Treres and Tilataeans, who dwell to the north of Mount Scombrus and extend towards the setting sun as far as the river Oskius. This river rises in the same mountains as the Nestus and Hebrus, a wild and extensive range connected with Rhodope. The empire of the Odrysians extended along the seaboard from Abdera to the mouth of the Danube in the Euxine. The navigation of this coast by the shortest route takes a merchantman four days and four nights with a wind astern the whole way: by land an active man, travelling by the shortest road, can get from Abdera to the Danube in eleven days.

An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, generally referred to by its shortened title The Wealth of Nations, is the magnum opus of the Scottish economist and moral philosopher Adam Smith. First published in 1776, the book offers one of the world's first collected descriptions of what builds nations' wealth, and is today a fundamental work in classical economics. By reflecting upon the economics at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, the book touches upon such broad topics as the division of labour, productivity, and free markets. == History == The Wealth of Nations was published March 9, 1776, during the Scottish Enlightenment and the Scottish Agricultural Revolution. It influenced several authors and economists, such as Karl Marx, as well as governments and organisations, setting the terms for economic debate and discussion for the next century and a half. For example, Alexander Hamilton was influenced inpart by The Wealth of Nations to write his Report on Manufactures, in which he argued against many of Smith's policies. Hamilton based much of this report on the ideas of Jean-Baptiste Colbert, and it was, in part, Colbert's ideas that Smith responded to, and criticised, with The Wealth of Nations.The Wealth of Nations was the product of seventeen years of notes and earlier works, as well as an observation of conversation among economists of the time concerning economic and societal conditions during the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, and it took Smith some ten years to produce. The result, An Inquiry to the Wealth of Nations, was a treatise which sought to offer a practical application for reformed economic theory to replace the mercantilist and physiocratic economic theories that were becoming less relevant in the time of industrial progress and innovation. It provided the foundation for economists, politicians, mathematicians,

that Ip Man 2 buckled under the pressure of all the expectations it was burdened with. In the 2 short years since the first Ip Man, Yen had become one of the most bankable stars in China – the action crown was his – and there was nobody to take it away from him. The result was a sequel which shoved Ip Man’s wife and friends well into the background, in favor of moulding the character into the hero of China, the one who would stand against the corrupt British forces and all those that dare to insult Chinese integrity. Gone was the vulnerability, and in its place was just an avatar for Chinese righteousness and honour. Ip Man was no longer someone we could relate to, weakly heldsugarplum fairy, and perform flying kicks from a standing position, a stark contrast to the more grounded approach of the original. It was later revealed that Sammo was suffering from health problems during the production, which included a visit to hospital for a heart bypass, and wasn’t performing at the peak of his abilities. Sadly the issues he was experiencing are reflected onscreen, and combined with a story which looked to capitalise on the character of Ip Man’s new found popularity, the final product divided audiences down the middle. Most significantly though, were Donnie’s own feelings about portraying Ip Man. The elephant in the room for the sequel had always been the Bruce Lee connection, and sure enough, Ip Man 2 closes out with a tagged on scene of

The Golden Eagles will play in the 2K Classic, which includes hosting two games of either IUPUI, Howard, Gardner-Webb or Eastern Michigan before heading to Madison Square Garden for a pair of games. The final matchups are not set yet, but Pittsburgh, SMU and Michigan will be joining Marquette in Manhattan on Nov. 17-18, and the Golden Eagles will face two of those three squads.

Smith called the canal system an "open industrial sewer like nothing else in the world" that FPL must address with more seriousness.

Several student leaders, includ-ing Charles Palmer, president of the National Student Association (NSA), David Hawk, co-chairman of the Vietnam Moratorium Com-mittee, and Dan Siegel, student body president of the University of California at Berkeley, joined the representatives at the press conference. Palmer said the lottery proposal did little but "plant hasty patches on an already patchwork system." Any system of forced service to the government "seriously endan-gers human freedom," he said. Hawk said sincerely motivated re-form of the draft would "abolish the student deferments that com-pel the sons of the poor, the black, the working class to fight the war that the sons of the middle class so loudly protest while remaining safely behind academic and occu-pational deferments."

With that, the redhead turned and headed back down the steps into the living room. The brunette groaned as she flung herself back onto the bed, draping an arm across her eyes. "Just stake me now, Weiss." The other Ventrue fledgling laughed lightly from the bathroom where she'd already changed and was now brushing out her long tresses.

Fernando Moleres Residents of the Cádiz city of Algeciras were left stunned when, earlier this year, a nine-year-old boy was killed after being hit by a speedboat at Getares beach. That initial shock was closely followed by fears that the incident could spark a war between the drug traffickers who operate in the area. Now, nearly five months after the tragedy, that feared vengeance has arrived. The father of the child was arrested on Tuesday night after he stabbed the owner of the vessel involved in the accident – despite the fact that he was neither piloting the boat nor was he present at the time of the incident.

(Shown here, Reading Abbey, where King Henry I was interred.) Einstein's Eclipse (Image credit: Public Domain) While the ancients viewed eclipses as signs of great acts of God, physicists viewed the 1919 solar eclipse as a triumph of science. During 1919's epic eclipse, in which the sun vanished for 6 minutes and 51 seconds, scientists measured the bending of light from the stars as they passed near the sun. The findings confirmed Einstein's theory of general relativity, which describes gravity as ataken not by the people and their elected representatives, but by bureaucrats from New Delhi. So after being pampered and appeased, the poor Kashmiris – whose ‘special status’ brought them benefits such as ‘human shields’, ‘half-widows’, pellet blindings, fake encounters like Pathribal and Machhil, torture and disappearances – need to brace themselves for a bout of tough love. That Shah’s bombshells were accompanied by the kind of measures one normally associates with a police state – the stealthy introduction of major constitutional changes, the lack of adequate time for debate, the late night arrest of mainstream political leaders in Kashmir, the prohibition of public gatherings, the shutdown of internet services and even landlines – adds the sort of odour one normally associates with coups.

he sat up to make the necessary adjustments, his tired mind swarming with fragmented thoughts. In the neighboring bed, Henry was sound asleep. Moonlight was spilling into the space between them, illuminating the TV, and the shadowed pictures framed on the walls. Michael had crashed to sleep at around eleven, while Henry had chosen to stay up to look after Clefairy. He had fashioned an entire shelter for her, complete with a mattress made out of shirts, a cup of cool water, and some toys in case she got lonely. The last thing Michael saw was the boy taking out the pumice stone and playing a sort of baby-catch game with Clefairy, but after that, he had been too tired to keep his eyes open. And now, he couldn’t sleep. Michael’sannoyance at himself faded into dull acceptance as he sank back into his pillow. He heard a cough and a scuffle from nearby. Apparently someone else wasn’t getting their sleep either. As Michael began to close his eyes again, trying to latch onto what remained of his fading dreams, he heard a loud thump. His eyes flew open, and he looked around. Henry was as still as ever, but the pile of clothing on the table had unraveled, and was now on the floor. In the weak light, Michael saw a round, pale shape stumble around on the carpet, blindly crawling away from the table. Great. Perfect. With a disgruntled sigh, he lowered himself back down again, pulling the covers over his head. But then he felt a tiny pang

prevent any trifling force of French from crossing in search of provisions, and to keep open the communications with Abrantes. As long as Masséna was threatening the Lines of Torres Vedras, there was no danger that he would throw anything more than a raiding party across the Tagus; he would want every man for the great assault. But when the Marshal gave up the offensive and retired to Santarem, the aspect of affairs was changed; it was quite possible that, with his army in a state of semi-starvation, he might venture to send a considerable detachment over the river, to gather the food which was so necessary to him. Nor was it unlikely that he might have a still more cogent reason for invading the Alemtejo. If, as Wellington thought probable[6], the army of Andalusia were to be orderedand oxen. Sometimes he was himself starving, could reveal nothing, and was murdered. We are assured by more than one French narrator of these hateful times that it was discovered that torture was more effective than the mere fear of death. If the prisoner could or would discover nothing, he was hung up for a few minutes, and then let down and offered a second chance of life. Sometimes this led to revelations; if not he was strung up again for good[12]. Torture by fire is also said to have been employed on some occasions.

Sunday morning was generally chosen for this pastime. A subscription was made to pay the hire of an animal from some drover or butcher, which was forthwith driven through the most populous parts of the town; often across church-yards when divine service was in progress, pursued by a yelling mob, who goaded the poor brute to madness with sharp pointed sticks, or thrust peas into its ears. When nearly dead the poor beast rejoined its herd, and was driven on to Smithfield market.

Almost 30K CA. inmates enter day two of hunger strike USATODAY SACRAMENTO, California (AP) — Nearly 30,000 of the 133,000 inmates in California prisons refused meals for the second day in support of inmates held in solitary confinement at Pelican Bay State Prison, corrections officials said Tuesday. The meals were refused on Monday and Tuesday as inmates announced what they said would be the third extended hunger strike in two years protesting conditions for the more than 4,500 gang members, gang associates and serious offenders held in the security housing units. The isolation units are at Pelican Bay near the Oregon border and at three other maximum security prisons around the state. Inmates refused breakfast and lunch at two-thirds of the state's 33 prisons and at all four private prisons that hold Californiainmates in other states, said Terry Thornton, a spokeswoman for the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. She did not know how many inmates skipped dinners. About 2,000 inmates statewide refused to go to their jobs or classes Tuesday, down slightly from the 2,300 who refused to participate on Monday. The number of inmates refusing meals also dropped slightly, from more than 30,000 on Monday to about 29,000 on Tuesday. The number of participating inmates eclipsed two hunger strikes two years ago. Nearly 12,000 inmates missed at least some meals in October 2011, and nearly 7,000 declined meals in July 2011, though officials said most began eating again after several days. Pelican Bay inmates said through advocacy groups that the protest began after talks with prison officials broke down last month over inmates'

She has London sit up on the kitchen counter and smells her pussy. London asks her how bad it all is and Dixie tells her that she's definitely sweaty but it's not bad at all.

— -- The militants who carried out an attack during Friday prayers at a mosque in Egypt's Sinai peninsula were carrying ISIS flags, the country's chief prosecutor, Nabil Sadeq, said Saturday. Sadeq also said that the death toll has risen to 305 worshipers, including 27 children -- a dramatic increase from the previously announced 235 fatalities. Another 128 were injured, he added. Friday's attack was carried out by 25-30 militants who arrived at the mosque in five all-terrain vehicles, according to Egypt's chief prosecutor. They also torched seven cars belonging to the worshipers that were parked outside, Sadeq added. Worshipers told Sadeq's office that some of the attackers wore masks, but all wore military-like uniforms. Emblazoned on the ISIS flags was the phrase, "There is no god but God. Muhammad is themessenger of God," according to survivors of the attack. Later Saturday, the Egyptian government placed the blame on ISIS, citing eyewitnesses who saw the flag-wielding attackers. Since the attack, the Egyptian military has carried out multiple airstrikes on bases it says are used by ISIS militants in the restive North Sinai region. An eyewitness described the perpetrators as having stationed themselves at the mosque's three exits and deliberately attacking people who tried to escape the building, as well as passing vehicles, after first shooting some who were "kneeling in prayer."
