second interlayer dielectric layer 140 where the isolated first wiring layer 130b is formed. In other words, the area of the second interlayer dielectric layer 140 where the isolated first wiring layer 130b is formed is excessively polished compared to the area of the second interlayer dielectric layer 140 where the first wiring layers 130a are closely formed. This phenomenon occurs because the polishing rate differs depending on pattern densities of the wiring layers. More particularly, a polishing pressure is concentrated on the area of the second interlayer dielectric layer 140 where the isolated first wiring layer 130b is formed. As a result, the polishing rate of the second interlayer dielectric layer 140 in the area where the isolated first wiring layer 130b is formed becomes greater thanthe polishing rate of the second interlayer dielectric layer 140 in the area where the first wiring layers 130a are closely formed. Consequently, the area of the second interlayer dielectric layer 140 in the area where the isolated first wiring layer 130b is formed is excessively polished.
When the second interlayer dielectric layer 140 in the area where the isolated first wiring layer 130b is formed is excessively polished, problems occur. For example, the thickness of the second interlayer dielectric layer 140 becomes irregular. When the thickness of the second interlayer dielectric layer 140 becomes irregular, a step difference is generated in the second wiring layer 150 that is formed over the interlayer dielectric layer 140. When the step difference is generated in the second wiring layer 150, problems | {

deconstruct the moral values and attitudes of the Western world, and particularly of the American people". His "open society" is not about freedom; it is about license. His vision rejects the notion of ordered liberty, in favor of a PROGRESSIVE ideology of rights and entitlements.
Perhaps the most important of these "whistle blowers" are David Horowitz and Richard Poe. Their book, "The Shadow Party", outlines in detail how Soros hijacked the Democratic Party, and now owns it lock, stock, and barrel. Soros has been packing the Democratic Party with radicals, and ousting moderate Democrats for years. The Shadow Party became the Shadow Government, which recently became the Obama Administration.
Discover The Networks.org (another good source) writes, "By his [Soros'] own admission, he helped engineer coups in Slovakia, Croatia, Georgia, andof licenses for emissions rights."
Although Soros doesn't (yet) own the Republican Party, like he does the Democrats, make no mistake, his tentacles are spread throughout the Republican Party as well.
Soros is a partner in the Carlyle Group where he has invested more than 100 million dollars. According to an article by "The Baltimore Chronicle's" Alice Cherbonnier, the Carlyle Group is run by "a veritable who's who of former Republican leaders," from CIA man, Frank Carlucci, to CIA head and ex-President George Bush, Sr.
In late 2006, Soros bought about 2 million shares of Halliburton, Dick Cheney's old stomping grounds. When the Democrats and Republicans held their conventions in 2000, Soros held Shadow Party conventions in the same cities, at the same time. In 2008, Soros donated $5,000,000,000 (thats Five | {

his byline as a psychologist. The court finds all kinds of problems with this argument.Once again, legal arguments best described as "novel" fail to score any points. An argument without precedent rarely holds up in court. Comparing the Board's assertions to the actual facts of the case, the court calls the entity out for its transparent attempt at regulating protected speech.The court also takes the time to criticize the board for its attempt to scuttle Rosemond's tagline.The decision then goes on to point out that the Board's actions seem particularly meritless and perhaps even a bit vindictive.Finding in favor of the columnist, the court has ordered a permanent injunction against the Board's use of its power to regulate protected speech. But why did it even get to thispoint?Well, certain regulatory agencies have tried to expand their reach by regulating speech under the guise of public safety. A few years back, North Carolina tried to shut down a blogger extolling the virtues of the "paleolithic diet" by claiming he was dispensing dietary advice without a license. Some government agencies just want to have control. Others dislike outsiders who don't "buy in" to the special "club." ( Licensing for psychologists in Kentucky runs $300 initially and $100 per year after that.)In Rosemond's case, a retired psychologist filed a complaint with the Board after reading one of Rosemond's columns. This resulted in the Board's serving of an affidavit demanding Rosemond pull his column. Rosemond refused and filed a suit against the Board instead, seeking declaratory judgment that the | {

family has been trying to get information on the investigation without success for 18 months, only to hear the officer's lawyer represent that he has inside information on how the case is proceeding.
"This is an outrage," Tom Connolly said after the hearing. He said he has never seen victims treated more hostility than the Ghaisars, who have pressed for criminal charges against the officers.
U.S. Rep. Don Beyer, a Democrat who represents the district where the chase occurred, said the 18-month investigation has been shrouded in secrecy, and he was also disappointed to hear the officers' lawyers represent that they have inside information on how the criminal charges will be resolved.
"How can Bijan's family or the people in his community possibly trust in the fair outcome of an investigationwhich unfolds in such a manner?" he asked in a statement. "A process this bad cannot help but damage citizens' faith in their government."
The FBI, which has been investigating the shooting, has declined to comment on the investigation. But details about the shooting emerged last year when Fairfax County Police, who played a supporting role in the traffic stop, released dashcam video of the chase.
The video shows a four-minute, stop-and-go chase that ends with officers firing multiple shots at Ghaisar as he sat unarmed in his Jeep. The video shows Ghaisar stopping multiple times during the chase, only to resume driving when officers approached with weapons drawn. It was when Ghaisar started to pull away after being stopped a third time that officers fired their weapons.

Division II All-American at ECU. During his senior year, however, authorities caught him selling $20 of marijuana on consecutive days to an undercover cop in a school zone, and he was sentenced to one-year felony probation. Bryant also was suspended for three games.
Armonty Bryant registers his second career sack in a Nov. 3 game against Baltimore.
The transgression did not stop the NFL from making him one of 29 small-school prospects invited to the combine in February. Scouts representing 18 teams saw him again at a March 14 pro day in Tulsa. But only one NFL franchise was intrigued enough to schedule a private workout. In April, Browns management dispatched Cullen to Ada, population: 16,810.
The position coach spoke to ECU coaches and people in the community. Everyone acknowledged Bryant’smistakes, but described a soft-spoken player working toward a degree in kinesiology who spent hours in the coaches’ office studying film.
He lived in the home of coach Tim McCarty for three months after his senior season and was headed there the night police made the DUI arrest.
McCarty believes Bryant possesses an "insatiable desire to learn" and spoke of the lineman's "elite body control," his ability to twist and bend his frame while pass rushing. Cullen worked him out at a nearby indoor facility and witnessed his fluid motion and flexible hips, likening Bryant to the cartoon character "Gumby."

MONTREAL (July 31, 2007) -- The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve may be a
track with a rich racing history, but getting around it remains nothing
but a mystery as the Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series prepares to pay its
first-ever visit to the 2.71-mile, 15-turn Formula 1 layout for
Friday's Montreal 400K.
Co-drivers Max Angelelli and Jan Magnussen of the No. 10 SunTrust Pontiac
Riley, along with their teammates at Wayne Taylor Racing, hope to make
short work of learning the finer points of negotiating their way around
the legendary circuit that plays host toF1's annual Canadian Grand
Prix. They'll get their first chance when they first take to the
track for practice Thursday morning as they continue their quest for a
second Rolex Series championship in the last three seasons for SunTrust.
After 10 of 14 events on the 2007 schedule, Angelelli and the SunTrust
team find themselves in second place in their respective driver and team
championships, 11 points behind driver Scott Pruett and his No. 01 Telmex
Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates Lexus Riley entry. Lurking close
behind -- just two points back in both the driver and team standings
-- are five-time race winners Alex Gurney and Jon Fogarty of the No.

Even memory treatises from comparatively prudish eras make this point. Peter of Ravenna, author of the most famous memory textbook of the fifteenth century, first asks the pardon of chaste and religious men before revealing "a secret which I have (through modesty) long remained silent about: if you wish to remember quickly, dispose the images of the most beautiful virgins into memory places; the memory is marvelously excited by images of women."

Verbling is great because it's fast; you don't need to spend time finding language exchange partners and arranging times to chat.

The targeting of cartel drug lords will remain a core component of bids to disrupt the powerful syndicates, for instance. The biggest trophy in the long-standing kingpin strategy was Sinaloa Cartel leader Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, extradited to New York in 2017 to face U.S. trafficking charges.
Among the cartels cutting into Sinaloa's drug-market share is the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, or CJNG, led by Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, also known as "El Mencho." The cartel once shot down a Mexican military helicopter with a rocket launcher.
EXTRADITED FROM MEXICO, CARTEL LEADER GETS NEARLY 50 YEARS
Last year, a DEA drug-threat report called CJNG "one of the most powerful and fastest growing (cartels) in Mexico and the United States." It said the cartel's primary product is methamphetamine, with main U.S. distribution hubsto help stem the flow of guns into Mexico that contributes to deadly violence in the country. Donahue said around 31,000 people were killed in Mexico last year, a record for a single year.
Some cartel experts say they don't believe tensions on the presidential level between the two nations have undermined cooperation in the fight against traffickers on the law-enforcement level.
"At the working level, there is a history of working together," said Scott Stewart, vice president of tactical analysis for Texas-based intelligence firm Stratfor. "It is not impacted by the political rhetoric."

Paralympic games. From the outfits worn by Nelly Furtado and Bryan Adams, to
the voluminous gold dress of Measha Brueggergosman who sang the Olympic anthem,
the Caten twins displayed their skill at designing clothes suitable for the
intimate catwalk and the massive stadium.
Fashion catwalks may not
seem to have much in common with sporting ceremonies, but there have been
several segments specifically devoted to fashion catwalks. The most recent was
just this month in the opening ceremony of Rio 2016 with supermodel Gisele
Bündchen walking the entire length of the stadium in a glittering dress
designed by the openly gay Brazilian designer Alexandre Herchcovitch. A
similar, shorter, walk was made by Alessandra Ambrósio at the London 2012
closing ceremony Rio handover segment.Italian designers Dolce and Gabana, Valentino and Versace produced dresses worn
in the handover segment at the Salt Lake City 2002 closing ceremony, and
Spanish designers were featured in the opening ceremony of Barcelona 1992. In
Sydney 2000 supermodel Elle McPherson appeared on a giant camera at the closing
ceremony. She was, however, upstaged by the “Priscilla, Queen of the Desert”
bus, fifty drag queens and Kylie Minogue.
The ceremonies, of course,
involve costumes for thousands of performers. While no one lgbt designer has
personally designed all of those needed for entire four ceremonies there are
several who have produced a major part of the visual impact of the Olympic
ceremonies.
One who probably had the
most involvement was award-winning film and stage costume designer Ray Aghayan

“The money the government spends on aerial spraying would better be spent on long-term development projects,” Nava Reyna said.
When the buyer stocks enough opium paste from the farmers, he calls his cartel bosses to have it picked up and taken for processing at a lab.
From the Guerrero mountains, most of the opium paste is shipped to wholesale collection points like Iguala, a city at the crossroads of several highways, including the interstate from Acapulco on the Pacific coast to Mexico City. There it istrout ponds.
But the trout are small because of a lack of food, and avocados take at least seven years before they yield a viable amount of green, shiny fruit.
One farmer proudly showed off the two- and three-year old avocado trees he had planted on his steep hillside plot of about 20 acres. Because the trees can produce for four or five decades, he may someday have a plot his children and grandchildren can make a living from.
But cultivation is expensive. So meanwhile, the farmer walked further down his plot, into a narrow creek valley, where his “flower garden” grows. He waited to score his bulbs until noon, “because the sun draws the gum out”.

structure for the reception and incubation of the eggs of birds, reptiles, insects, and some fish or for the parturition of mammals, and also for the care of the young during their period of helplessness. Chimpanzees, orangutan, and gorillas build nests to sleep in each night. Birds are the chief nest builders, exhibiting great variety and ingenuity among the different species. The type of nest depends on the environment and the condition of the young when hatched. Altricial birds, whose young are generally blind, naked, and helpless on hatching, usually build higher and more elaborate nests than do precocial birds, whose young have a downy covering and are able to move about and feed themselves soon after emerging from the egg. Most sea birds, shore birds, and gamebirds do not build real nests but lay their eggs directly on a rocky ledge or in a shallow depression scooped out of the earth or sand. Woodpeckers and parrots nest inside hollow trees, as do the Old World hornbills; the male hornbill seals the female into the cavity, leaving an aperture only large enough for him to feed her as she incubates the eggs. Sand martins and kingfishers dig tunnels into shore banks, with enlarged nesting chambers at the ends. The stork's nest is a simple platform of sticks, and the eagle's aerie, built in tree tops or on cliffs, may be 5 to 12 ft (1.5–3.7 m) in diameter; both birds add to their nests each year.

HYDERABAD: Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy on Sunday said the people need to learn from former Union Minister, Karan Singh, how to serve the nation and that a new India could emerge only if youth were given a vision and channelised their `tremendous' energy.
He was speaking after releasing a Telugu translation of Dr. Singh's autobiography. Former MP Yarlagadda Lakshmi Prasad translated the autobiography. Dr. Reddy said that after Dr. Prasad's book on veteran CPI (M) leader P. Sundarayya, this was the second volume he was releasing.
A former Kashmir ruler and a Minister in Indira Gandhi's Cabinet, Dr. Singh called for people's dedication and involvement of youth in transforming the country, which could play apivotal role in shaping contours of a global society. There were problems that needed to be resolved — maintaining parliamentary decorum, controlling corruption and violence and poverty alleviation measures, he said.
Justice G. Raghuram of the Andhra Pradesh High Court described Dr. Singh as a man of letters, a poet, a liberal, a statesman, an administrator and a skilled negotiator.
Union Minister for Coal, Dasari Narayana Rao, presided. Former Karnataka Governor V.S. Rama Devi and former Union Minister, P. Upendra both of whom had written foreword for the book, were present.

Cleghorn would often retaliate violently against opposing players he felt were taking liberties on his teammates, especially his brother Odie. Once, in 1912, he struck opponent Newsy Lalonde in the back of his head after the latter had cross-checked Odie. For this he was fined and suspended from the league. He also faced a charge of aggravated assault for which he paid a $50 fine. In a January 1917 game against the Toronto Blueshirts, Cleghorn collided with Ken Randall and crashed feet first into the boards. He sustained a broken anklewife, Vivian Goudreau, predeceased him on December 18, 1943.
Cleghorn was hit by a car on his way to work on June 29, 1956 on Commissioners Street in Montreal. He sustained head injuries and a fractured cervical vertebrae. Two weeks later, on July 12, 1956, he died of his injuries at St. Luc Hospital. He was 66, and was survived by his brother Odie and three sisters. His funeral was held at First Presbyterian Church in Montreal on July 14 and he was buried at Mount Royal Cemetery. Upon his death, his brother, Odie remarked, "He was my brother, and I don't like to boast, but I never saw a tougher or better defenceman than Sprague." Two days later, Odie died in his sleep of heart failure and was | {

Mahmudullah critical of Lahore pitch after Bangladesh lose T20I opener
by Atif Azam • Published on
"The ball did not come on to the bat as we expected" - Mahmudullah © Getty
Bangladesh captain Mahmudullah wasn't too happy with the pitch for the opening T20I against Pakistan in Lahore, which he felt prevented the batsmen from playing their strokes freely. Bangladesh ended up on the losing side in the first of three T20Is, posting only 141 on the board which Pakistan chased down with three deliveries to spare.
"I expected a little bit better from the wicket because once the ball got older, we found it difficult to score runs. The ball did not come on to the bat as we expected," Mahmudullah said on Friday (January 24).An 11-year-old boy has stunned Japan by throwing himself under a train in an effort to prevent the imminent closure of his school, pleading in his suicide note for the merger to be cancelled.
The 11-year-old threw himself in front of a speeding express service at an Osaka station one afternoon, and died instantly despite the best efforts of the driver to brake.
The boy, who died in his school uniform and left his rucksack on the platform, left little doubt as to the reasons for his suicide – he left a note in his bag saying “please, in exchange for my little life, cancel the school merger.”
According to the local education authority, the Osaka elementary school he attended was due to close in April, as part of a plan | {

The April 2010 Interview
After the announcement of the panel in February 2010, the Muir Russell “inquiry” carried out only one interview with Briffa (on April 9, collectively with Jones and Melvin.) The interview was attended by only two panelists, with Geoffrey Boulton, who been employed for 18 years by the University of East Anglia, taking the lead. There isn’t any transcript of the interview.

under development is digital film processing (DFP). DFP systems scan film during the film development process. Generally, DFP systems scan the film without chemically removing the elemental silver or the silver halide from the film.
As a result, fewer hazardous effluents are produced by the development process. Conventional DFP systems generally utilize an applicator to apply a layer of processing solution to the photographic film. The film is then looped to allow the processing solution time to react with the film.
A method and system for environment control during film processing is provided. In one implementation of the present invention, a development tunnel is provided. In one embodiment, the development tunnel comprises a housing that forms a development chamber. Photographic film coated with a developer solution is transported through developmentchamber. The development chamber operates to maintain a relatively constant temperature and humidity of the coated film during development of the film.
In another implementation of the present invention, a photographic film processing system is provided. In one embodiment, the photographic film processing system comprises an applicator station, development station, and a transport system. The applicator station operates to coat a developer solution onto a photographic film. The development station operates to heat coated photographic film in an air environment. The transport system operates to transport the film through the applicator station and development station.

Sixty years of the International Journal of Biometeorology.
The International Journal of Biometeorology (IJB) has continuously evolved since its first publications in 1957. In this paper, we examine these changes using a database that includes all manuscript titles and author information. A brief history considers the development of the journal and shifts over time. With an interdisciplinary focus, publications draw on a wide array of subdisciplines. Using content analysis, we evaluate the themes found within IJB. Some research themes have maintained prominence throughout the journal's history, while other themes have waxed or waned over time. Similarly, the most influential manuscripts throughout the past 60 years reveal that human biometeorological papers, particularly regarding thermal comfort, have been influential throughout the journal's history, with other themes, including phenology and animal biometeorology,Homehttps://server7.kproxy.com/servlet/redirect.srv/sruj/smyrwpoii/p2/Worldhttps://server7.kproxy.com/servlet/redirect.srv/sruj/smyrwpoii/p2/Fairfax Accuser Meredith Watson was the subject of the 2008 Provision: Report

An electric light fixture was suspended from the porch ceiling at a point opposite the wall between the entrance doors. The stairway and the porch were common to the two apartments and were under the control of the defendants.
On Sunday morning, February 12, 1950, Markee, in the course of his employment as a driver for the Yellow Cab Company, responded to a telephone call *703 from one of the defendants, who wanted to be taken to St. Patrick's Church. Markee reached the house at approximately 6:45 a.m. After getting out of the cab, he walked tothe defendants' front door to let them know that he had arrived. It was then very foggy and dark. If the light in the porch ceiling had been lighted, it would have helped Markee to see his surroundings better. Before he rang the bell he saw a woman inside the house coming toward the door. He then turned to go back to his cab, and as he did so he slipped on a film of unsanded ice covering the part of the porch over which he was proceeding. As a result of slipping, he fell down the stairs to the walk.

Colorado has become the 12th state to pass a measure changing the way it awards its Electoral College votes in presidential elections to award the electoral votes to the winner of the popular vote in presidential elections should enough states sign on.
Democrat Gov. Jared Polis signed a bill on Friday that would award Colorado’s presidential electoral votes to the candidate who wins the popular vote in a presidential election, allowing the state to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.
It technically does not eliminate the Electoral College, it just awards the electoral votes from the states that sign onto the compact to the winner of the national popular vote. The compact only kicks in if enough states amounting to 270 electoral votes–a White House win–sign onto the plan.
MembersMassachusetts, Connecticut, Washington, New York, Illinois, New Jersey, and California— have passed legislation in their respective statehouses agreeing to favor the popular vote in presidential elections.
New Mexico, with 5 electoral votes, could be the next state to sign on to the compact, as its state senate recently passed a bill in favor of awarding electoral votes to the national popular vote winner and it awaiting the governor’s signature there. The same is true in Delaware, which has 3 electoral votes. Those two states would add another 8 electoral votes to the compact, getting it up to 189 total electoral votes–putting it 81 electoral votes shy of adoption.
Although the popular vote movement has been branded as a bipartisan effort by supporters of the legislation, most of the states that | {

was arrested Wednesday night when he arrived at Portland International Airport from Las Vegas to visit his sons, Ammon Bundy and Ryan Bundy.
His detention means he'll be housed in the same jail as his sons, the leaders of an armed group that occupied an Oregon wildlife refuge.
But the charges against the patriarch don't stem from the occupation by the sons of the refuge in Burns, Oregon.
The criminal charges instead arise from a tense 2014 armed standoff with federal officials near the family ranch in Nevada, and they reopen a festering question of how federal officials would fulfill promises to take action following the cancellation of a roundup of Bundy cattle from rangeland about 80 miles northeast of Las Vegas.
A 32-page criminal complaint filed in U.S. District Court inLas Vegas accuses Bundy of leading more than 200 self-styled militia supporters into the April 2014 confrontation that had snipers with military-style weapons on a freeway overpass training their sights on federal agents who were attempting to enforce a court order to round up Bundy cattle.
"Bundy and his confederates recruited, organized and led hundreds of others in using armed force against law enforcement officers in order to achieve their criminal objectives," the charging document said.
The complaint refers to at least four other people as co-conspirators, but doesn't name them. Federal authorities said no other arrests were immediately expected in the April 2014 incident.
But federal prosecutors in Oregon said nine more people from six states have been charged in connection with the Oregon wildlife refuge occupation. Seven were arrested | {

Man shot by robbers seeking marijuana
A Santa Rosa man was shot and critically injured Friday night in an attempted home invasion by robbers who demanded he hand over marijuana or cash, according to police.
Leslie Peoples, 23, was shot after struggling with one of two suspects who entered the home he shares with his father on the 2300 block of Donna Maria Drive around 11:45 p.m., Sgt. Steve Fraga said.
Peoples' father, Rodger Peoples, told police he had been awakened by the noise of his son struggling with one of the two suspects in the home's entryway. The men, who were carrying handguns, had demanded marijuana or money.
Rodger Peoples told police he saw the suspects shoot his son and then flee the scene.
The suspects are still being sought, and theDoes Jonathan Chait know about Basil, I wonder?
If, like me, you were impressed by the magisterial comprehensiveness of a chart that accompanied New York's cover story, in which Chait outlined his theory that President Trump has been an agent of the Russian government since 1987, you might assume that he cannot have missed this crucial personage and is sitting on the info until more becomes clear.
Noble as his intentions might seem, I am not so sure that the revelations can wait this long. Allow me, in the interest of national security, to rehearse the facts.

Uncommonly powerful, with gray fur and faint black ovals around each eye, O-Six is a kind and merciful leader, a fiercely intelligent fighter, and a doting mother. She is beloved by wolf watchers, particularly renowned naturalist Rick McIntyre, and becomes something of a social media star, with followers around the world.
But as she raises her pups and protects her pack, O-Six is challenged on all fronts: by hunters, who compete with wolves for the elk they both prize; by cattle ranchers who are losing livestock and have the ear of politicians; and by other Yellowstone wolves who are vying for control of the park’s stunningly beautiful Lamar Valley.
These forces collide in American Wolf, a riveting multigenerational saga of hardship andtriumph that tells a larger story about the ongoing cultural clash in the West—between those fighting for a vanishing way of life and those committed to restoring one of the country’s most iconic landscapes.”

missile strike against Iran, which Trump said on Twitter he held off on at the last minute after learning it could have caused 150 casualties.
Tensions between Iran and the West are still rising—and not just because of Tehran’s decision to enrich more uranium. Last Thursday, British marines seized an Iranian oil tanker in Gibraltar on suspicions it was carrying crude oil to Syria, in violation of EU sanctions. Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif called it an act of “piracy,” and some Iranian officials suggested seizing a British tanker in reprisal.
Wendy Sherman, a former top diplomat under Obama who helped negotiate the Iran nuclear deal, said she feared the tensions between Washington and Tehran could take a dangerous and unexpected turn, even though Trump has made it clearacross the world.

Life is make believe, fantasy given form
The Melding of Aeris – Excerpt
Four generations ago, the realms fell to fire. The Burn, the only means of destroying a lush land so manipulated by man that while its crops sated hunger, it poisoned the flesh. Now the wilderness slowly reseeds itself unassisted, the hard lessons learned through starvation, displacement, and poverty. What remains for nature’s tinkerers? The human body.
Pathway, the coveted distillation that enables the grafting of skin across species. The warriors of the Sea Barrows meld spiral horns to their skulls, reptilian scale to their chests. They embed the razor teeth of sea beasts in the bones of their forearms and replace the flesh on their backs with the fur of wolves. Women of wealth adorn their bodies withserpent skin as elegant as black lace, long tails, plumed feathers and silken fur, their own skin cast off, no longer desirable.
Prologue
Lasandra’s new lips curved in a bow, blood red and as plump and luscious as a bruise. Barely clad, she posed before her silvered looking-glass, glimpsing in her reflection the potential for perfection. Her transfiguration was almost complete, the last scars faint red seams that would fade in a matter of weeks.
She wanted new eyes, green ones, the bright emerald of spring grass or fresh limes, and a cascade of long curls as black and thick as a moonless sea. She’d spotted the ones she desired in the marketplace. The woman sold yellow onions from a crudely woven basket. Poor and barefoot, she would sell hers, surely. | {

Every year during upfronts week, ABC would consistently lead the pack among broadcasters by ordering more new series for the upcoming season—usually a double-digit number—than any of its rivals. But under new ABC Entertainment president Karey Burke, who took over for Channing Dungey last November, the network has trimmed its new series orders to a number more in line with the other broadcast networks: adding just two dramas and one new comedy airing next fall, and introducing three more series at midseason.

Story highlights China plans ban on shark fin being served at official banquets
The ban could take up to three years to implement
Move follows proposal made at National People's Congress in March
Around 73 million sharks killed for their fins each year
China is planning to ban shark fin soup from being served at official banquets, in a sign the country may be losing its taste for the expensive delicacy.
According to Chinese media , the Government Office Administration of the State Council said the ban could take up to three years to implement and would help cut the cost of sometimes lavish banquets held for state functions.
The move followed a proposal made during the National People's Congress in March this year.
Bertha Lo of the campaign group Hong Kong Shark Foundation saidstudy quoted on the website of Lo's group. Their carcasses are usually discarded and campaigners say the practice is wasteful and cruel.
The World Wildlife Fund says that 181 species of shark are under threat, up from 15 in 1996.
Shark's fin soup is widely served in restaurants in Chinese communities worldwide and is a dish often served at weddings to mark the importance of the occasion and impress the couple's extended families and friends.
But the custom has become less popular among a younger generation of diners, who are more environmentally conscious, says Lo.
Last year, the operator of the high-end Peninsula hotel chain said it would remove shark fin products from its menus and Shangri-la Hotels made a similar move this year.

A mere reading of these paragraphs of the agreement shows that they contain nothing which would justify the demand for a reconveyance of the property on the ground expressed in said letter. It might be well to state here, although the matter is of slight importance, that the boy Antonio was living with Mr. and Mrs. Zapata at the time the deed and other papers were executed. He was then about nine years old.

Evidently, the Board of Missions *345 was carrying out itsthe necessary papers prepared. It cannot be claimed that there was any undue haste on the part of any of the parties interested in the transfer of the property to the Board of Missions. It was the Zapatas, and not the Board of Missions, that insisted on the transaction being closed. A further circumstance evidencing the fact that the transaction was not a case where overzealous persons wrung from a dying man on his death-bed, as contended by respondent, a conveyance of his property, is that when the papers were first taken to the Zapata home and due to a suggestion of Mrs. Zapata, a correction was to be made in the terms of the agreement, they were not again taken to the Zapatas until three weeks after | {

But in the event of a trade war, all bets are off. A tariff here means retaliation by the Mexican government there, and the last time that happened, it was the United States that surrendered. In phasing in NAFTA in the early 2000s, Congress abruptly interrupted the movement of Mexican trucks north. The Mexicans retaliated with a crippling tariff on American tomato growers.

Another option for Armenia to advance its economy and further develop trade is to look further east to the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) led by China that includes military, economic and cultural cooperation; three countries from the EAEU including Russia are member states and India and Pakistan joined last year. Armenia has been a dialogue partner since 2008 and applied for observer status in 2012. There have been discussions to merge the SCO with the CSTO, which is still being debated.

While the story remains unconfirmed, it would make political sense for Democrats to deter pop icons from being seen to endorse President Trump in any way as the mid-terms draw nearer.
In the week after Kanye West tweeted his support for Candace Owens, a vocal African-American Trump supporter, Trump’s popularity amongst black males jumped from 11 per cent to 22 per cent.
It has also been pointed out that before Trump ran as a Republican, he was a popular figure amongst the hip hop community, being name dropped in the lyrics of numerous hit songs.

(AP Photo/Keystone, Laurent Gillieron)
"This is an historic moment for Switzerland and Europe," Alinghi boss and bio-tech millionaire Ernesto Bertarelli said Monday. "We Swiss can look back at a 700-year-old democracy and know not to underestimate the 152-year-old tradition of the America's Cup."
Alinghi Challenge was a veritable United Nations of sailing. Sailors from 15 different countries made up the crew.
"They functioned like a Swiss watch with international gearsand a German battery," said Tim Kröger, the German member of the French challenge yacht Le Defi. A Berliner's ultimate prize
The battery power was provided by Berliner Jochen Schümann, who has long been considered one of Europe's top sailors. The 48-year-old won his first gold medal in 1976, following it with two more in 1988 and 1996. His resume includes multiple European and World Championships. Only sailing's "Mt. Everest" was missing.
As member of the Swiss challenger "be hAPpy" in 2000, his team was forced to bow out of the 2000 America's Cup qualifying after their only mast snapped during racing. The Swiss went at it more professionally and better-financed the second time around, with Bertarelli leading the alpine syndicate.

With a 50,000-seat stadium — which hosted one of Germany's World Cup qualifiers last year — and a rich history, Köllner's side should be better placed to compete at the top table than some of the smaller sides to have won promotion in the last few years.
Last year's promoted teams may provide a template forNürnberg. Both Stuttgart and fellow promoted side Hannover have survived comfortably this term and sit 8th and 13th respectively.
Nürnberg's win means third-placed Holsten Kiel will face either Hamburg, Wolfsburg or Freiburg in the relegation playoff, depending on results in the top flight next Saturday. The two-legged playoff will fall on May 25 and 29.

highly competitive mobile services market.
"There has been strong GSM growth in virtually every region of the world during the first quarter of the year. We have seen excellent progress, especially in Asia Pacific, China and Latin America in the take up and growth of GSM," says Alan Hadden, President, GSA - Global mobile Suppliers Association.
China still accounts for the largest proportion of mobile growth globally, followed by Asia Pacific, Western Europe and Eastern Europe. In Asia Pacific including China, 81% of the region's growth was generated by GSM operators. In China alone, GSM growth in Q1 2003 was 14.1 million subscribers, or 87% of new additions.
A similar situation can be seen in other regions. For example, in Latin America the market is strongly benefiting from the decisions by25 of the region's 31 TDMA operators to deploy GSM as their technology platform to support third generation (3G) services and solutions. "Brazil is one of the most hotly contested markets in Latin America, where GSM captured 51% of growth in the first quarter of this year. The success of GSM has been outstanding, taking a clear position of leadership, with both TDMA and CDMA growth declining", added Alan Hadden.
GSM also markedly increased market share in North America, by achieving 61% of net additions in first quarter 2003. "We again see how customers are benefiting from operators' decisions to migrate from TDMA to the secure GSM evolution path that delivers new, advanced mobile services as well as new data and roaming revenues," concludes Alan Hadden.

collide with each other, transferring charge in the process. The hailstones fall to the lower portion of the cloud, giving it a negative charge. The ice crystals rise upward, carrying a positive electric charge to the cloud's upper end. This "charge separation" grows more intense with each collision inside the cloud—so intense, in fact, that the negative charge at the cloud's lower end actually repels electrons at the Earth's surface deeper into the planet. Consequently, the ground becomes positively charged and the electric field cuts a conductive path between the cloud and the Earth. The result? A high voltage surge of electrons, otherwise known as lightning!
The accompanying boom, called thunder, comes from sound waves created when the air is heated suddenly by the lightning and then cools rapidly.
Typically,after about an hour the storm becomes dominated by downward motion and an ordinary storm ends, says Richardson. And although thunderstorms are a summertime phenomenon, she notes, in some rare situations a winter thundersnow can occur. This happens most often near the Great Lakes and other large bodies of water, when a cold front passes over a warm surface, causing the instability needed for a thunderstorm. If the temperature is cold enough, snow falls instead of rain.
In February 2004, thundersnows occurred in association with the blizzard dubbed White Juan, which struck Halifax, Nova Scotia just months after Hurricane Juan had destroyed parts of that city. A low-pressure storm formed off the east coast of the United States, intensifying as it moved north. High gusting winds and record snowfalls | {

The past 14 days have been such a roller coaster, but by far we are hitting this two week "anniversary" with so much gratefulness," Devon writes.
Trevor is progressing, Devon says, but he is not the only one who needs help. The mom says Molly will also be seeing a counselor because of what she witnessed when her dad had a stroke. "She definitely had some trauma. She is afraid she will see him the way she saw him on the ground," Devon says.
"She was alone with him for 20 minutes. It was very traumatic." Butin the area who would deliver the information to her. She said great. All was good.
Mom called the next day to tell me that she'd delivered the packet to the store, but that the experience had been "weird." She took the packet to the store and went to the customer service desk. There were two employees standing behind the desk, literally four feet from where mom was standing, facing her, and they ignored her for several minutes while they had a personal conversation that had absolutely nothing to do with the store. Mom waited... and waited, until she finally said, "Excuse me, is there someone who could help me?" Employee 1 held up his hand, without looking at her, and said, "Just a minute." then continued his conversation!

CEREBRAL PERSPECTIVE
Several years ago, Dawn Hunter stumbled upon the
medical drawings of 19th century Spanish neuroscientist
Santiago Ramón y Cajal. Since then, her artwork has taken
a completely new turn. Where the associate professor of
studio art once focused on representations of gender in
mass media, now she is digging deep into Cajal, who won
a Nobel Prize in 1906 and is best known for his work on
the structure of the brain. Hunter’s artwork, along with a
presentation she gave last fall at the National Institutes of
Health, is helping to expand conceptions about Cajal’s life
and his work. Hunter wants people to know about how his
childhood affected his outlook, and that his drawings not
only have scientific merit, but also are works of art in their
own right. In her recent work, Hunter has illustrated themes

CARSON, Calif. – The last time that the LA Galaxy took on Real Salt Lake on June 20 at Rio Tinto Stadium in Sandy, Utah, the two teams were on the opposite end of the Western Conference spectrum.
The LA Galaxy were a dismal 4-8-2, sitting near the bottom of the Western Conference while Real Salt Lake 10-3-2 perched atop the West ahead of the then-second place San Jose Earthquakes.

to finance and sponsor despots and dictators across the world. The freedom to train, arm, and shelter terrorists. The freedom to topple democratically elected governments. The freedom to amass and use weapons of mass destruction-chemical, biological, and nuclear. The freedom to go to war against any country whose government it disagrees with. And, most terrible of all, the freedom to commit these crimes against humanity in the name of "justice," in the name of "righteousness," in the name of "freedom." Attorney General John Ashcroft declared that the freedom of the Americans is "not the grant of any government or document, but. . .our endowment from God.” Arundhati Roy comments: “Basically, we're confronted with a country armed with a mandate from heaven. Perhaps this explains why the U.S. governmentjust terrorism?” The underlying logic of terrorist attacks, as well as "retaliatory" wars against governments that "support terrorism," is the same: both punish citizens for the actions of their governments. The power of rhetoric which comes with all the authority and glamorous technology of the world’s hyperpower has indeed taken a heavy toll on public opinion. It has in fact, with its skewed up morality, perverted the integrity of the human conscience, head and heart. As a result, prejudices are established as fact, myth as reality. The masses are benumbed to the terrible atrocities in the guise of the ‘War on Terror.’ And questions cannot be asked. As Bush the Senior had said, “What We Say, Goes.”

Russia's submarine fleet is one of the most capable in the world, perhaps second only to that of the US. And it is only getting better. Although the subs are holdovers from the Cold War, Russia has been steadily investing in and modernizing its fleet in capabilities and range. Russian President Vladimir Putin has grand plans to modernize with the purchase of additional subs and the development and acquisition of new models.
And Putin's plan has so far worked. Russian submarines are active again in the North Atlantic at levels similar to those during the Cold War. And their training and professionalism are suddenly drawing the concern of NATO. In response to these actions, the US is once again opening a Cold War-era sub-hunting base in Iceland.
Below is aninfographic by St. Petersburg, Russia-based designer Anton Egorov depicting the submarines that Russia currently operates, along with their maximum depth:
Anton Egorov
Russia's sub fleet is divided into three broad categories: diesel-electric powered, nuclear-powered ballistic missile, and nuclear-powered attack. Each variation has its own unique purpose and is subdivided into varying models.
The country's diesel-electric fleet is the least technologically advanced segment and the cheapest to buy and maintain. These submarines, which are smaller and slower and have a shorter range than their nuclear counterparts, are limited in their total operational depth and are used for attacking surface ships and merchant vessels.
Russia plans on adding an additional six Kilo-class subs to the Black Sea Fleet, along with 14 to 18 diesel-electric submarines similar to Lada-class subs over the next 15 years.

The United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit has ruled that the First Amendment protects the right of private citizens to record the actions of police while they are performing their duties in public places. The decision resulted from a lawsuit by the American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois against the state's unusually broad eavesdropping statute. It criminalizes all audio recordings made without the consent of the parties involved, even of public officials in public places.West Coast have decided that forward Willie Rioli will have a place on the club's playing list for 2020 despite his provisional suspension for allegedly tampering with a urine sample in a drug test.

The earliest surviving references date from the 12th century and call the language לשון־אַשכּנז (loshn-ashknaz = "language of Ashkenaz") or טײַטש (taytsh), a variant of tiutsch, the contemporary name for Middle High German. In common usage, the language is called מאַמע־לשון (mame-loshn, literally "mother tongue"), distinguishing it from Hebrew and Aramaic, which are collectively termed לשון־קדש (loshn-koydesh, "holy tongue"). The term "Yiddish" did not become the most frequently used designation in the literature until the 18th century. In the late 19th and into the 20th century the language was more commonly called "Jewish", especially in non-Jewish contexts, but "Yiddish" is again the more common designation.
Modern Yiddish has two major forms. Eastern Yiddish is far more common today. It includes Southeastern (Ukrainian–Romanian), Mideastern (Polish–Galician–Eastern Hungarian), and Northeastern (Lithuanian–Belarusian) dialects.Eastern Yiddish differs from Western both by its far greater size and by the extensive inclusion of words of Slavic origin. Western Yiddish is divided into Southwestern (Swiss–Alsatian–Southern German), Midwestern (Central German), and Northwestern (Netherlandic–Northern German) dialects. Yiddish is used in a large number of Orthodox Jewish communities worldwide and is the first language of the home, school, and in many social settings among most Hasid Jews. Yiddish is also the academic language of the study of the Talmud according to the tradition of the Lithuanian yeshivas.
The term Yiddish is also used in the adjectival sense, synonymously with Jewish, to designate attributes of Ashkenazi culture (for example, Yiddish cooking and Yiddish music).[7]

She has not shown that any of Bourgoin's earlier offenses were in fact on his record at the time or that a reasonable investigation would have uncovered them.

as attested by the archeological evidence chiefly in Elam, one of the earliest world civilizations in the south western Iran. During the course of Iran’s recorded history, a unique distinctive music developed accompanied by numerous musical instruments, several of which came to be the first prototypes of some modern musical instruments of today.
Persian traditional music in its contemporary form has its inception in the Naseri era, who ordered the opening of a “House of Crafts”, where all master craftsmen would gather for designing instruments and practicing their art. Persian Symphonic Music has a long history. In fact Opera originated from Persia much before its emergence in Europe. Iranians traditionally performed Tazeeieh, which in many respects resembles the European Opera.

Cinema of Iran
The cinema of Iran (orPersian cinema) is a flourishing film industry with a long history. Many popular commercial films are made in Iran, and Iranian art films have won many international film awards, and festivals of Iranian films are held annually around the globe. Along with China, Iran has been lauded as one of the best exporters of cinema in the 1990s.
Many critics now rank Iran as the world’s most important national cinema artistically, with a significance that invites comparison to Italian Neorealism and similar movements in past decades.
World-renowned German filmmaker, Werner Herzog, along with many film critics from around the world, has praised Iranian cinema as one of the world’s most important artistic cinemas.

1900 to 1930 is the so called golden age of physics in India. A few Indian physicists, starting with Professor J.C. Bose, achieved remarkable success and received international acclaim.
Considering the Indian background, the whole phenomenon seemed a miracle. The dazzling event boosted our national pride and deeply impressed young Indian physicists of subsequent generations. Unfortunately there was also a different fall out.

“…nothing so liberalizes a man and expands the kindly instincts that nature put in him as travel and contact with many kinds of people.” Mark Twain
People have always travelled to other parts of the world to see great buildings and works of art, to learn new languages, to experience new cultures and to enjoy different food and drink. As long ago as the time of the Roman Empire, there were popular coastal resorts such as Sorrento and Capri for the rich.
In 1936 the League of Nations defined a foreign tourist as someone travelling abroad for at least twenty-fourhours and its successor, the United Nations amended this definition in 1945 by including a maximum stay of six months. In early 2010 the European Commissioner for industry and entrepreneurship, Antonio Tajani, unveiled a plan declaring tourism a human right and introduced it with the statement that “travelling for tourism today is a right. The way we spend our holidays is a formidable indicator of our quality of life.”
Young English elites of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries (Rahs really) often spent two to four years travelling around Europe in an effort to broaden their horizons and learn about language, architecture, geography and culture in an experience known as the Grand Tour.

Nikki Giovanni commemorated rap legend Tupac Shakur in her book “Love Poems”, which was released in 1997, and was given a warm welcome from the fans which were still mourning after the shocking death. Giovanni embraced writing children’s books as a way of promoting issues concerning social justice and racial equality. Amongst the themes explored we can mention Abraham Lincoln and the legendary figure of the civil rights movements, Rosa Parks. Giovanni was herself an activist which never stopped promoting the values she considered to be just.
Nikki Giovanni was somehow involved indirectly with the Virginia Tech shooting which took place on April 16, 2007. The mass murderer, Seung-Hui Cho, was a student inher poetry class, which made things quite difficult for Giovanni, when she was requested to deliver a speech at the end of the commemorative ceremony. IN the words that she assembled, she was able to accurately describe the arbitrary behind the absurd act, by comparing it with crisis which shape poor communities worldwide. She made direct reference to problems of the black continent which generate the same amount of sufferance on a daily basis. The iconic “We are Virginia Tech” acted as a commitment that such tragedies are unable to destabilize institutions which are built around lasting values.

While Honda is pretty much expected to make a move in the winter with his contract expiring, the fans will definitely hope for the arrival of at least one of the other two. Perhaps a typical deadline day surprise from Galliani might be in store.
Pre-Season
Milan had a fairly busy pre-season. Apart from playing in a few domestic games, they also participated in two international cups against some of the best teams in Europe. It all started with the 5-1 humiliation of the fourth division club, Pergolettese. Milan then played the TIM Trophy where, to everyoneai??i??s surprise, they lost to the newly promoted Sassuolo after beatingAll eight goals were scored in the first half itself. Milan went on to beat Sao Paulo for an eventual third place finish in the tournament.
On their arrival to the US, the team was very well received and the excitement was visible among the clubai??i??s huge fan-base in America. The tour therefore was an eventful one from the marketing perspective, too. Milan played Chelsea in the semi-finals and in a rather disappointing show, lost 2-0 to the Londoners which pushed them a step down to contest for the third spot. Facing LA Galaxy, Milan registered a 2-0 win themselves this time courtesy goals from Balotelli and Niang.

but with Flood moving in all around them Johnson explained the necessity of firing the ring immediately, prompting Guilty Spark's protest that activating Halo now would destroy both the Ark and the installation, and Johnson's subsequent reply of, "deal with it," as he prepared to activate the ring. Unwilling to let "his" ring be destroyed again, Spark went rampant, attacking Johnson, John-117, and the Arbiter. However, with the help of mortally-wounded Johnson and his Spartan Laser, John-117 managed to destroy Guilty Spark and start the firing sequence for the new Halo. Just after Johnson's final remarks to John-117, he died. John-117 and the Arbiter then escaped the control room by taking Johnson's Warthog to the Forward Unto Dawn. Due to the unstable, incomplete nature of the ring asit fired, the Slipspace portal collapsed as the Dawn entered it, causing it to be sheared in two. The forward half with the Arbiter made it to Earth, crashing into an ocean (presumably the Indian Ocean). Cortana and John-117 were in the hangar area at the time of the separation, and were thus left in the aft section of the ship, which fell out of Slipstream space at an unknown location, eventually drifting towards Requiem.

Coady: "It's A Brilliant Club To Play For"
19th April 2018
An 'ecstatic' Conor Coady says that Wolves' promotion to the Premier League is thanks to the way in which the club is run.
Nuno Espirito Santo's side secured promotion with four games to spare at the weekend, and are now looking to wrap up the Championship title before looking forward to Premier League football at Molineux next season.
Coady, now coming to the end of his third season at Wolves, believes that the team's achievements stem from the 'brilliant' way in which the clubs operates.
"It's a brilliant club to play for," Coady said. "This promotion is a culmination of a lot of things - it's a fantastic club coming together. This is how a club should be run. I've been herethose formed by automatic welding.

A UNESCO World Heritage site in the northwestern province of Zanjan, the mausoleum of Oljaytu at Soltaniyeh is topped by one of the world's largest domes.
Built between 1302 and 1312 in Soltaniyeh, the capital city of the Mongols' Ilkhanid Dynasty, the monument is a mausoleum for Il-khan Oljeitu, the Ilkhanid's eighth ruler.

were equally disillusioned with their manager. Allardyce, many at Goodison consider, was the worst manager of a generation despite the minor improvement of the team. As the season was coming to a close there was major dissatisfaction towards the Englishman's regime and there was an acceptance that something fresh had to come.
The 2017/18 campaign finished. Watford laboured to 14th under their then new manager, Gracia, whilst Everton finished 8th. Despite speculation, the Spaniard remained at Vicarage Road, however Allardyce departed from Goodison.

Silva was appointed as his replacement. Commence the intensifying of the bad blood between the sides. As a result of the appointment, Watford launched a complaint about the manner in which the Portuguese had been approached during his tenure in Hertfordshire, but the accusations fell ondeaf ears.
The 2018/19 season for both clubs has been a case of inconsistency, a lack of end product and, for Everton, defensive calamities. Zonal marking has become an age old debate for the Toffees and February has yielded mounting speculation on Silva’s future at the club.
This week on Talksport, Moshiri has stated that Silva’s future at Everton is safe.

According to the Browns, they intend to further improve their land for recreational use and ultimately sell it in a high-priced market for recreational properties.

The Air Force since January 1991 uses a small airfield, Wizard Auxiliary Airfield, near the Browns' ranch, to train its pilots. Flights out of Laughlin Air Force Base, about 25 miles to the northwest of Wizard, conduct "touch and go" exercises on the Wizard airstrip. In a touch and go exercise, a plane approaches the landing strip as if to land, touches the ground, and takes off again without coming to a stop. Such exercisesrequire planes to fly very low, producing a great deal of noise on the ground. On take off from Wizard's airstrip, planes fly less than 500 feet above ground level (AGL) over at least 100 acres of the Brown's property.

relationship between humanity and the ground.11
Solution 1: From Outside: The human being is created from "dust of the ground" in Gen 2:7. This creation activity is immediately followed by a spatial shift as the narrative progression shifts its focus to the garden. The ground from which the human being was created, as indicated in Gen 3:23, is the ground outside the garden. Thus, the first undoing of the negative in Gen 2:5d is from outside the garden.
Solution 2: From Inside the Garden: Another human being is created from inside the garden. The human being who was created outside the garden is transported into the garden and the human role becomes limited to the Garden of Eden "to work it and to keep it" (Gen 2:15). The mandate given2:18, NIV). Thirdly, a helper is not found for the human being among the animals: "But for the man there was not found [לא־מָצאָ] a helper fit for him" (Gen 2:20 RSV). Fourthly, the human beings were without shame: "And the man and his wife were both naked, and were not ashamed .[וְלאֹ יִתְבֹּשָׁשׁוּ].
At the micro level, that is from within the garden in Gen 2:8-25, the negatives that are fully addressed are the intertwined two in 2:18 and 20. The first attempt to undo the negative is through the creation of the animals in 2:18, as another negative is introduced in 2:20. The undoing of the negatives in 2:18 and 20 is finally achieved through the creation of another human being, "a woman" (אשִָּׁ ה), who is | {
