aspiration of ordinary people to take control of their lives that fueled passion for the revolt against the human condition of monarchy, exemplified by the imposed authority of King George.
Despite all the flaws, contradictions and inherent inequality with the founders and the large gap between ideals and reality, the Bill of Rights was a groundbreaking move away from the single power of central authority, whether it be King, plutocrat or president. It was an attempt to create a shift from the centralized throne to a system of law, specifically with the U.S. Constitution as a mechanism for the balance of power.
This history-making document is a declaration of the supreme power of the common man. It recognizes everyday people as the primary active agent within any healthy society. Nowithdraw that trust and authority.
Yet despite the ideals in the Declaration, from its inception democracy in the U.S. Republic was never intended to be direct, created of the people, by the people and for the people. The idea of equality self-evidenced in the Declaration was kept unfree as the Republic took representation as its formal governing structure. The true revolutionary force behind the First Amendment remained leashed. This was most apparent in the denial of rights for slaves, indigenous people and women.
Though in many ways it was a groundbreaking concept, American democracy still had a tendency for corruption and unchecked power of privilege. In this representative form of governance, some progress was made, but the fuller meaning of the First Amendment remained unrealized and was simply translated as | {

The elimination of a temporomandibular joint disorder (however, as previously mentioned, occlusion is rarely an aetiological factor for TMD so there should be significant evidence to support this before alteration of the occlusion is pursued)
Achieving a satisfactory occlusal reorganisation involves choosing a desired jaw relationship (either conforming to existing ICP or producing a new ICP coincident with CR), deciding on the intercuspal contacts (removing deflective contacts and adjusting shapes/inclines of teeth), adjusting excursive contacts (removing interferences) and aiming for a mutually protected occlusion. This is an extremely complex process and entails a clinical occlusal examination as described above, along with detailed examination of mounted study casts and diagnosticgross revenues of his father's business. The case eventually went to trial on a third amended complaint which alleged breach of an oral partnership agreement that was formed during a conversation between Kenneth and his father, Jacques.[1]
At trial, the facts revealed that Kenneth incorporated BESI for Jacques in 1981. BESI's sole shareholder, officer, and director is Jacques, who formed the company to obtain cable television contracts with condominium associations. Kenneth, who was employed in a private law firm, performed BESI's legal work, and drafted some of the company's first service contracts. Although Kenneth was terminated by the law firm in July of 1982, he continued to provide legal services to BESI.

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

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

6,800 to 12,000.[60] In theory, the LIRR may have tacked on new riders with electric service to Port Jefferson.
Conclusion
The history of the LIRR demonstrates that public supervision set railroads on the right track. The rail infrastructure spearheaded by the MTA in the 1960s and 1970s modernized the LIRR and provided the best commuter service along the Port Jefferson branch to Huntington. Subsequently, late twentieth century rail improvements did not rejuvenate service because the new diesel fleet was not an acceptable substitute for electrification. Dual-mode technology was supposed to end the moniker “change at Jamaica” [for electric service] by the end of the twentieth century.[61] To this day, it has not. Only a few select rush-hour trains to and from Port Jefferson provide the desired one-seat ride. All other2016, an agreement needed to be reached between city and state officials to avoid fund depletion.[63]
The other project, still in early planning stages, is construction of an additional Main Line track between Floral Park and Hicksville. Third track construction, averaged at $1 billion, would work in conjunction with East Side Access to allow for more trains to and from the island.[64] However, it is also plagued with controversy. While the plan is backed by state officials and a consortium called Right Track for Long Island Coalition, communities along the route have vied to fight. Hempstead Town Supervisor Anthony Santino raised concerns about a danger to children since the ten-mile right-of-way runs adjacent to recreation centers and playgrounds.

Police Marine Division (officers Seda, Ronda, Toro, and Torres). The FURA team left shore, heading south, around 7:00 p.m. About half an hour later, they received a radio message from a boat identifying itself as the M/V CATU. The CATU stated that it was traveling from the Dominican Republic to Puerto Rico and wanted to know the weather conditions along the west coast. Irizarry furnished the requested information and, upon inquiry by the CATU, identified himself as a representative of the marine police. He refused, however, to give a specific answer to the CATU's request concerning the FURA boat's location.

In order to avoid the worsening weather, Irizarry changed direction and headed north toward Mayaguez. Around 9:15 p.m., the FURA boat approached theis "the officer in charge at the time."

The policemen's designation forms offered two possible sources of approval for specific actions: the "Special Agent-in-Charge" or "Watch Commander." The government admits that no permission was obtained from the Special Agent-in-Charge, Jaime Echevarria. Instead, it was agent Jimenez who authorized the search. Jimenez testified that, when he received the call requesting permission to board the CATU, he was the "functional equivalent" of a watch commander. Defendants argue that this is an inherently implausible conclusion since Jimenez was not at a duty station but attending a baseball game when the call was received. Such an argument, however, takes much too parochial a view of command status. The evidence showed that Jimenez was wearing | {

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

Peter Bradshaw flatly labeled "The best American film of the year") a failure. But it did open the 2000s on a less than triumphant note for the Coens, setting up a half-decade stretch that is generally taken to be their driest period creatively, if not commercially. Their follow-up to _The Man Who Wasn't There_ was supposed to be an adaptation of _Deliverance_ author James Dickey's 1993 novel _To the White Sea_ into an epic action movie. The book is a terse, exciting account of a downed American rear-gunner trying to survive in the Japanese capital during an attack by his own countrymen; the Coens' plan was to film it mostly without dialogue.

And of course we know we're all sitting in a movie, but music really took you out of the particular reality of that film. I think there are directors who take music seriously and think about its presence in a film, or about its absence. Hitchcock was one of those directors, and I think Joel and Ethan are as well.

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

the need to change to electric trains. For rush-hour passengers, there were now six roundtrips to and from Huntington and New York, some running relatively express.[32]
The Creation of Amtrak and Conrail
Faced with similar postwar issues, national railroads merged in order to provide centralized management. The consolidation movement started in the 1950s and culminated with the 1968 merger of the two largest American railroads, the Pennsylvania Railroad and the New York Central.[33] By this time, both were in dire straits. The Pennsylvania accumulated $304 million of deferred maintenance by 1964 and downsized to avoid purchasing new equipment.[34] The Central was in a similar situation. Each railroad reached the point of no return as revenues fell and operating costs rose. Ultimately, the combined Penn Central Railroad went bankrupt on Junethe dual-mode locomotive could switch off its diesel engine and utilize electric power to Manhattan providing passengers in non-electrified territory a one-seat ride without changing trains.[45] Beginning in 1994, a two-year pilot program tested ten cars and three dual-mode locomotives on the Port Jefferson branch during rush-hour.[46]
Satisfied with test results, the MTA approved the purchase of a new diesel fleet. The locomotives were specially-built for the LIRR since rail officials wanted engines capable of accelerating as quick as electric trains. Half of the forty-six new locomotives would have the dual-mode ability while the other half would be strictly diesel locomotion.[47]
Diesel Fleet Issues
The new fleet was unveiled on the Port Jefferson branch on October 21, 1998, a year-and-a-half behind schedule. The first engines in service were strictly diesel locomotives.[48] | {

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

to find and focus on what still "jazzes" someone about their work. For example, one leader at a large company thrived off innovation and creativity, but his team wasn't delivering in that area. So Weiss helped him create an environment that encouraged risk-taking — even if it resulted in failure. "What he did was at the end of the year when they had their annual awards ceremony to reward those who had high sales or the best service, he started giving out an award for 'the best idea that didn't work'," says Weiss, who wrote the book "Million Dollar Consulting.

The key to effective delegating is to help people understand that "there's no such thing as perfection. It doesn't exist, and perfection always kills excellence," Weiss says. With the 80-hour executive, Weiss says he helped him understand that when an employee is performing tasks that are "good enough," leave it at that and move on. With that understanding, Weiss helped the executive identify the high-level tasks he absolutely had to do due to his level of expertise, but he also helped him figure out who on his team could best handle the rest of the work.

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

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

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

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

Facebook’s actions in India have drawn comparisons with the blocking of numerous accounts and pages in Pakistan in 2014 that were severely criticised by advocates of free speech. Among the Pakistani accounts that faced action were Left-Wing political pages and the pages of a popular rock band whose members spoke out against the Taliban, a radical militant organisation. After an outcry on social media, several of the accounts were restored. In a report, The New York Times quoted a Facebook spokesperson in London saying it had blocked the pages after receiving an official request from the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority, and that thePressure on China's leaders to cut pollution from coal is likely to intensify – potentially hurting Australia's exports – with new research showing Beijing's air quality will get worse with climate change.

But a warming world is projected to increase the frequency of the most severe pollution events by half, according to research published on Tuesday in the Nature Climate Change journal.

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

The Day of Sai Herthe
Our Lady of the Hearth Fire
The Day of Sai Herthe falls on Herthe 6th/December 31st - New Year's Eve in the Gregorian Calendar and the Seventh Day of Nativity. It is sometimes called the Day of Hestia.
What exactly is the Day of Sai Herthe?
The Day of Sai Herthe is the festival of the hearth-fire. Thus, by extension, it is the festival of the home, or Hestia. The Hestia is the center of life in feminine tradition. It is no accident that we say our home is "where we live", even though from early times patriarchy has continually emphasized the public world, or Agora, as "what is most important". We see this today in the belief in "the primacy of politics" as the most importantthing.
Nevertheless the home continues to be "where we live". In feminine cultures society as a whole is seen as an extended household. And when the society is Agora-ized and religion patriarchalized, the home becomes the center of faith and worship for the religion of Our Mother God.
The cardinal moment of this festival is midnight on Herthe 6th/December 31st - the same as with New Year's Day. For New Year's Day, the significance is clear - it is the transition point between the years in a calendar that begins days at midnight (the Filianic calendar begins days at dawn). What is the significance of midnight for the Day of Herthe?

An infuriating comparison
The comparison between what is happening today in the lands of historic Eretz Yisrael where Jews and Arabs live together, albeit in armed conflict, and what took place between whites and blacks in South Africa, is infuriating. This applies to both the practical as well as the principled side of the issue.
The whites conquered territories in Africa, installed colonialist rule, and a negligible minority ruled over an absolute majority. The lands where the colonialist forces settled, including in South Africa, were taken from their former inhabitants.
In contrast, the Jews returned to their historic homeland, from which they had been exiled for nearly 2,000 years. All the territories that were settled since the commencement of the orderly, slow and non-threatening return of the Jewish people to itsland in the last quarter of the 19th c. were, without exception, purchased at full price. Moreover, when the Jews began to return to their land its foreign rulers, the Ottoman Empire, ruled over Arabs and Jews alike. This points to an additional indisputable historic fact: after the Jews went into exile the land was ruled only by foreign conquerors; no other nation established its sovereignty there.
The Jewish people’s war of independence in 1948-9 was in fact initiated by the Arabs. On May 15, 1948 five Arab standing armies–of Egypt, Syria, Transjordan, Iraq and Lebanon–invaded the country that had that day declared its independence. After nearly two years of a tough and painful defensive war in which the Jewish people, scarcely three years after the Holocaust, lost one | {

speech was usually slurred. She refused to opine as to whether she believed Decker was intoxicated.

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

El Sistema, the internationally celebrated programme in Venezuela that aims to lift young people from poverty and into orchestras, has been criticised by a British academic as a “model of tyranny” and raised questions about its recent expansion to the UK.
El Sistema was set up almost forty years ago by José Antonio Abreu, a musician, economist and former cabinet minister, as a social programme to bring Venezuela’s disadvantaged youth off the streets and into musical ensembles to enrich their lives and promote social mobility.
Since 1975, when it began with 11 musicians in a garage in Caracas, it has placed more than two million children into orchestras and has spawned branches in a dozen plus countries, including Sistema England, which is chaired by Julian Lloyd Webber.

For a time, the instrument was owned and played by violinist Iona Brown, who after a 1998 Tokyo performance of The Lark Ascending, returned the instrument to its case declaring: "It was received so rapturously by the audience that I went back to my dressing room, put my violin in its case and said: 'I'm not going to do it any more.' I felt it was best to go out on a high note." (The Lark Ascending ends on one of the highest notes on the violin). | {

Curtis did affirm that Les Paul handled all the recording, and "set the level, dropped the needle down, ran back into the studio and…started to record" because "Nobody else was engineering that day."
Fields sounds robust enough on these recordings, but this was the last time the public would ever hear his familiar voice. Five months later, he was dead. There had been hope, around Thanksgiving, that Fields could navigate a wheelchair over to Bing Crosby's radio show for a broadcast scheduled on December 22nd. He never made it. The first biography of Fields, by Robert Lewis Taylor in 1949, describes the comedian's sad condition:
"…he had periods ofdelirium. Occasionally he cursed and railed at things…and once out of a blue sky, he sang what appeared to be a kind of love song…Shortly before midnight (December 25th), Miss Monti took his hand and began calling to him. While she pleaded, he opened his eyes, and, noting the people in the room put a finger to his lips and winked. A few minutes later, as bells over the city announced the arrival of Christmas morning, he suffered a violent hemorrhage of the stomach. The blood bubbled thickly out of his lips, he drew several long sighs, and lay still. "

BEIRUT, LEBANON (8:10 A.M.) – The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) has been rapidly advancing the through the eastern corridor of the East Ghouta region recently, seizing several localities from the Islamist rebels of Jaysh Al-Islam.
Led by the Tiger Forces and 4th Mechanized Division, the Syrian Army continued their large-scale advance in the East Ghouta, today, taking control of several sites near the recently captured towns of Al-Shifouniyah and Beit Na’em.
According to a military source in Damascus, the Syrian Army was able to impose full control over the town of Al-Muhammadiyah and its corresponding farms after a fierce battle with the militants of Jaysh Al-Islam.
As a result of their advances, the Syrian Army now finds themselves within 3.5km of splitting the East Ghouta pocket in | {

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

desired to practise them in the raising of the sluice-gates which, in
the event of invasion, were to convert Romney Marsh into an inland
sea, no efforts availed to get together sufficient men for the purpose.
Immune from the press by reason of their newly created status of

The man killed was not the victim of the accident. The victim was the

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

One of Mullen's proposals, which would abolish the city's Board of Public Works, caused so much noise and applause from the audience that the Chairman threatened to clear the hall. Mayor James Chambers later commented that "Mullen was trying the spend the city's money like a drunken sailor" by proposing several orders that would've increased public expenditure. That March, he walked out of a meeting to avoid voting on the city's budget, which would cause the budget to be referred back to the Finance Committee. Alderman Fred C.

North Korean threat
North Korea remains an important foreign policy issue for Abe. Earlier this year, North Korea had two missiles fly over Japanese territory. In response, Abe introduced a countrywide alarm system connected to the mobile phones of all citizens. Civic emergency exercises were also held in many Japanese cities. The Japanese leader also supported US President Donald Trump's hard line against the Kim Jong Un regime.
Abe is likely to continue with this foreign policy course toward North Korea. The conservative premier wants to hit two birds with one stone: on the one hand, continuing tensions between North Korea andthe US allies in the region would justify Japan's departure from pacifism; on the other, Abe can prove to be a reliable US partner to counter Chinese ambitions in the region.

So another side of me is that I have become a lover of the entire Avatar series. In 2011 I randomly decided to watch Avatar: The Last Airbender on Netflix and was immediately hooked. Not just by the story but the interesting characters that challenged norms and conventions.
The first series’ lead was a young monk with a world changing destiny. Avatar Aang was an oddity for a male lead. He yearned for peace. Highly spiritual and non confrontational. As well as very explicit about how he felt in every painful moment. Out of this he made friends for life who were also just as dynamic. My personal favorite out of this series was | {

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

ran out of steam with the general public. The momentum of Buchanan's insurgency culminated at the horrendously anti-gay 1992 Republican National Convention, which the GOP never recovered from.
As the economy worsened, Bill Clinton and Ross Perot seized the middle ground and captured the public's concern with economic visions for change. Clinton ultimately connected with the middle on their economic fears ("it's the economy, stupid"), which gave him room to make an unprecedented play for gays, making a list of promises unheard of by a leading presidential candidate in history. By all accounts, Clinton won that election on the basis of earning the trust of a nation worried about its wallet. The gays, in political terms, won along with him.

Both parties had openly gay speakers at their conventions in prime time (Elizabeth Birch for the Democrats, Congressman Jim Kolbe (R-AZ) for the GOP).

In a conference call with analysts and investors Tuesday, Disney took pains to emphasize that it was more interested in wringing cash from future films and using the "Star Wars" characters to make toys and theme park rides than it is on mining Lucasfilm library of older films.

The attack came just three days after three knife-wielding men drove a van into pedestrians on London Bridge before stabbing people at restaurants and bars near Borough Market, leaving seven people dead.
The Notre-Dame incident was the latest in a series of attacks on French police and soldiers. One officer was shot dead by a gunman on the Champs Élysées in April.
In February, an Egyptianman caused panic near the Louvre when he ran at soldiers with a machete. A month later, a suspected Islamist terrorist wrestled a soldier to the ground and grabbed their gun as they patrolled Orly airport, before being shot dead.

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

The second patient was a 40 year old male who was admitted because of jaundice; he was diagnosed as having lymphoma that exclusively involved the liver.
The third patient was a 38-year-old male who presented with palpable mass in the left cervical region, which was diagnosed as lymphoma.

The Graduate School was established in 2012 to support the development of the next generation of academic staff. Since then, it has implemented several initiatives that support the University's growing number of research students. For example, the School has awarded funds totally approximately £20,000 to more than 25 research students, to help towards the cost of attending conferences at which they can present their research. Beneficiaries have travelled extensively to major international events within the EU and as far afield as the US, China and Japan, acquiring invaluable transferable skills and networking with peers in their fields.
The School has also strengthened the research student voice through its participation in the biennial PostgraduateResearch Experience Survey (PRES) and work with the Students' Union. Committed to responding promptly and constructively to feedback, the Graduate School is constantly exploring ways to build on the University's research student feedback and representation mechanisms with the Students' Union . Looking ahead to the future careers of research students, policy development led by the School in 2013 is increasing access to the University's research skills training through the implementation of its Framework for Doctoral Skills Training.

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

Michigan picked the blitz up two, maybe three times: on the two jet sweeps and on the second-to-last one. On the first jet sweep they picked it up because MSU screwed up by revealing their blitz before Molk put his head down. On the second one they let a guy through but managed to adjust after he was in the backfield, so I'm being generous(!).
By the time the pick six arrived Michigan had literally seen this blitz nine times and they still had no adjustment to their timing so that Molk would be able to see what was directly in front of him. ThisI believe).
Lets take the defender out the equation for the moment. If Gallon leaps, catches the ball, lands and falls back toward the line of scrimmage, the spot is where the ball is when Gallon's knee/arm/etc. touches the ground. That same ruling applies unless the defender is the one pushing him back.
My first impression was that the defender wasn't carrying Gallon back and any contact did not cause the momentum, making the spot correct. I also would have agreed with a spot where the official ruled that as Gallon completed the catch upon landing, he was trying to halt his backward momentum, making the spot where the ball was at that moment. It's a bang-bang call and a tough one.

Brown wins praise after maiden Notts hundred
Featured News | 15th June 2009
Director of Cricket Mick Newell praised the contribution of veteran batsman Ali Brown following the 39-year-old’s first century for Notts.
Brown hit 148 in the second innings against Hampshire to help set up a victory which maintained Notts’ place at the top of Division One in the LV County Championship.
The right-hander, who signed from Surrey in the winter, has now hit 368 runs in seven first-class innings this season, averaging 61.33 with three half-centuries to add to his hundred.
He has struggled to have the same impact in the Friends Provident Trophy and Twenty20 Cup but Newell said: “Alastair has done very well in four-day cricket for us.

Synopsis:
A lush new fantasy about finding the will to lead against all odds, perfect for fans of Shadow and Bone.
Keri has been struggling to run her family bakery since her mother passed away. Now the father she barely knew—the Lord of Nimmira—has died, and ancient magic has decreed that she will take his place as the new Lady. The position has never been so dangerous: the mists that hide Nimmira from its vicious, land-hungry neighbors have failed, and Keri’s people are visible to strangers for the first time since the mists were put in place generations ago.

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

The Cavaliers would be higher on this list if Kevin Love had not turned 25 a couple weeks ago, but still possess some high-end young talent.
Amin Elhassan had this to say about the Cavaliers:
Remember when I said some teams cash in their youth for "win now" vets? That's exactly what Cleveland did when it moved players such as Tyler Zeller and Sergey Karasev in cap-clearing deals to sign LeBron James, then traded Wiggins and Bennett in the Kevin Love deal. The Cavs are a markedly better team, projected to contend for a Finals appearance, but they managed to still hold onto a | {

The Last Temptation of Christ (1988)
Note: This is a shortened version of an essay written for my new book, Scorsese by Ebert.
Reading my 1988 review of “The Last Temptation of Christ,” I find it is more concerned with theology than cinema. It must have driven Martin Scorsese crazy to read reviews of “The Last Temptation of Christ” in which critics appointed themselves arbiters of the manhood or godliness of Jesus Christ, and scarcely mentioned the direction, the writing, the acting, the images or Peter Gabriel’s harsh, mournful music. Or perhaps Scorsese understood. It is useful to remember the temper of the time. The film was a target of the Christian right, which accused Scorsese of blasphemy and worse.

At 58 years old, Roosevelt was overweight, nearly deaf, blind in one eye, and had never fully recovered from a near-fatal bought of malaria that he contracted during a seven-month-long expedition in unexplored jungles of Brazil a couple of years earlier. Partly due to his age, but mostly due to their contentious relationship, it was unlikely that President Wilson would grant Roosevelt his wish. But with tears welling in his eyes and his voice breaking, the former President told Hughes and Root how badly he hoped to serve his country one last time. "I must go,“ saidover the world.

Tillerson and Mnuchin, who some Republicans privately worry could face difficult exchanges with senators from both parties, are being assisted by several former officials from George W. Bush’s administration.
Mnuchin’s team includes Tara Bradshaw, a Bush-era spokeswoman at the Treasury Department, and Mary Waters, an official in the Agriculture Department under Bush. Tillerson’s team includes Christian Whiton, who worked at the State Department during the Bush presidency; and Margaret Peterlin, a former Commerce Department official and senior House Republican aide.
Collectively, these former senators and administration officials, who come armed with deep familiarity with the arcane nature of the Senate and the complex policies a nominee will tackle, are known as “sherpas.”

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

his temper, flipping a bat over his shoulder in frustration, only to get sued when the bat landed in the stands and conked a fan and his wife on the head. That story acknowledges the 1956 Robinson, older and slower and grayer, who looks very much like Tim Duncan today. That Robinson finished as an everyday, inning-by-inning threat, but fierce in competitive bursts, convinced of his ability to pull yet another moment of magic out of a spent body.
That story remembers the loyal Robinson who was a lifelong Republican, supporter of Richard Nixon, believer that the best hope for black America in 1960 lay with the Republican Party, convinced even as the evidence mounted against him, that the Party of Lincoln could still be counted on.
Robinson was sucha powerful force during the 1960 presidential campaign between Nixon and John F. Kennedy that the Kennedy camp feared his influence with black America could tip the election to the Republicans. So their camp strategized, calling on another famous black ballplayer to neutralize Nixon. That player was Henry Aaron, who, beginning with that phone call from the Kennedy camp, became a lifelong Democratic supporter, all the way through the campaigns of Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton once more. Through Robinson -- even though they were on opposite sides of the election -- came Henry Aaron's political awakening.AP Photo/John Rooney

The gluteal compartment syndrome.
The gluteal compartment syndrome is a rare, often unrecognized condition which, left untreated, can lead to renal failure, sepsis, and death. The etiology, physiology, and manifestations are similar to those seen in the more common and readily recognized compartment syndromes of the lower leg and forearm. The large gluteal muscle mass confined by the fascia lata of the thigh and tensor fascia lata can, under the right conditions, produce muscle necrosis, acidosis, elevations of creatinine phosphokinase, and ultimately renal failure. A gluteal compartment syndrome most commonly occurs in individuals with an altered mental status due to drugs or alcohol who remain in one position for an extended period of time. This prolonged compression leads to muscle damage, edema, and a full-blown compartment syndrome.

According to Al Perlman, the president of the business publications division of Ziff Davis, he conceived of the idea of creating a magazine targeted at CIOs and CIO-level individuals in December 2000. Perlman stated that he believed the market was open for new publications and envisioned creating a magazine that would be "a Harvard Business Review for the CIO." In his proposal for the magazine, Perlman suggested that the publication would contain thought pieces, essays, case studies, and proprietary research. He wanted to create a "monthly magazine, with heavy paper, approximately 80 pages in length, not a lot of art and a 50,000 [subscriber] controlled circulation."

campaigns. A confident 2010 appearance by former Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg sparked a wave of “Cleggmania” that helped to propel him into the deputy prime minister post in a coalition government with the Conservatives.
During Britain’s last election in 2017, then-Prime Minister Theresa May refused to take part in any TV debates. The decision reinforced the view that she was a weak campaigner, and the election turned out to be a debacle for her Conservative Party, which lost its majority in Parliament.
Tim Bale, professor of politics at Queen Mary University of London, said Tuesday’s debate was “a pretty messy score draw, although Corbyn may just have snuck a win in the dying minutes.”
“Hardly two men at the top of their game, though,” he said.

Indonesia has announced plans to build a new capital city as its current capital, Jakarta, struggles with pollution, traffic gridlock — and the fact that the city is sinking.
After a Cabinet meeting on Monday, planning minister Bambang Brodjonegoro said President Joko Widodo has decided to move the capital out of Indonesia's main island, Java.
It's not clear exactly when this will happen, or where the new capital would be located. The idea has been out there for decades, though previous leaders have been unable to accomplish the ambitious plan.
Earlier this month, Widodo secured another term in office, according to independent polling organizations. His challenger also declared victory, and official | {

Huge ships would have to have been leased from some large shipping company. Helicopters and crew would have to have been leased from experienced organizations, probably like logging companies, then personnel to distribute the assistance would have to have been hired and put in place.

Charlie Nicholas is predicting a top-four finish for Tottenham - but not Manchester United
Charlie Nicholas has reassessed his pre-season predictions after the opening weeks of the 2016/17 Premier League season.
With seven games played, Pep Guardiola's Manchester City sit top of the table, having won six of their matches so far, while Tottenham are the league's only remaining unbeaten side.
Having missed out on a place in Charlie's original top four, have Spurs done enough to make the grade this time around? Read on to find out...

¶5 In spite of this absolute grant of authority to the arbitrator, City successfully argued below that the arbitrator acted outside of his scope by deciding that City did not have "just cause" to terminate Green. The crux of City's contention was that Green's failure to include the words "just cause" in his grievance, was a fatal flaw. Accordingly, City argued, arbitrator's decision in this regard could not be considered a "specific issue or action being appealed." Thus, arbitrator's decision in this regard was outside the scope of his authority under the CBA. This narrow focus distorts the actual evidence | {

Good Wednesday Morning, Fellow Seekers.
As you might expect, reaction is rolling in from Pennsylvania lawmakers now that the Trump administration has finally trotted out its first, full budget proposal.
The White House's spending plan, which would slash the social safety net even as it beefs up the border and defense, isn't exactly setting Pennsylvania's elected representatives alight with enthusiasm.
As only he can, U.S. Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., offered a half-a-loaf endorsement of the White House's budget.
"Pro-growth tax reform, rolling back excessive regulations, balancing the federal budget, and cutting government duplication and waste are important goals that the Trump budget embraces," Toomey said in a statement.
"I support the broad goals of the Trump budget, but there particulars with which I disagree. For example, I do not support proposed cuts tothe National Institutes of Health."
Toomey's support for NIH funding, by the way, puts him on the same side of the fence as the guy he once tried to defeat - the late Sen. Arlen Specter. As he fought cancer, the Philly Republican was a staunch supporter of NIH funding.
And in a reminder of turf, Toomey added finally that "While the President's budget proposal is a statement of priorities for his administration, the ultimate responsibility for passing a budget and funding the government rests with Congress."
In short, the White House can propose whatever it likes. Final spending power rests with the legislative branch.
U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., called the White House's budget "an extreme document that reads like a wish list of special interest giveaways and is riddled with | {

was eliminated.
The dive bell was used to transport the dive team down to the depth they were working at. The bell would be joined to the saturation chamber at one end , the pressure equalised and the team would then move from the chamber into the bell. All the dive equipment would be in the bell. The chamber and the bell were then re sealed and the bell would part from the main chamber. The bell would then be pushed via a hydraulic system over the edge of the barge and lowered into the sea down to the depth they were working at. At the base of the bell is a large sealed door that would open inwards to the bell. The principle is the internal pressure wouldkeep this door sealed and locked down , when the bell reached a similar depth of pressure to that inside the bell, the door would bump open and this allowed the team to lift the door up and put on their equipment breathing gas mix from the supply on the side of the bell. Then they could lower themselves into the water and move on to the project in hand.

Violations of U.S. visa law are hardly unusual, particularly in the modeling industry. It was a common practice in the 1990s in New York for less scrupulous agencies to bring in foreign models to work illegally on temporary business and tourist visas, according to Sara Ziff, founder of the Model Alliance, a group that advocates improved labor standards for fashion models.
The timing of Trump’s arrival in New York remains hazy, and representatives of the Trump campaign and Trump Organization did not address questions about that timing. In a previously unpublished portion of an April interview conducted for a profile in GQ, Trump told POLITICO’sJulia Ioffe that she lived with Matthew Atanian, her first known roommate in New York, only for a few weeks. “I was busy and I was traveling a lot. And then after that, after a month of two, I found my own place,” Trump said.
But in an interview for the same profile, Atanian told Ioffe that they shared the apartment for a period that spanned 1995 to 1996, and Atanian told POLITICO this week that he and Trump shared the apartment for a total of a year to a year and a half. He said he recalled Trump leaving the country to travel home for holidays during that period.

Rats were transferred to the testing room in a non-transparent cage to avoid visual orientation prior to release into the pool. Release points were balanced across four symmetrical positions on the pool perimeter. The position of the hidden platform remained fixed during the acquisition phase which lasted 5 days. Four trials of 60 sec. length with 30 sec. intertrial intervals were given per day.

But in media coverage, her modeling “career” serves as an important backdrop to her current role, a signal of her inexperience at best.

The global architecture of the research on patient safety was visualised by using DEMPs developed by Gastner and Newman.[@R13] The advantage of this technique is that the worldwide situation can be captured immediately in its entirety by showing the differences via resizing of the country shapes. The calculation of the ratio of the number of publications to the countries' population as well as to the countries' GDP per Capita supports the assessment of global landscape, so that it can be interpreted more meaningfully.
The carried out gender analysis puts its focus on both the international differences and the differences between the most assigned subject areas. Since not all the authors' gender could be determined due to not assignableon the quality of the listed journals as a result of the higher requirements.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration has halted, without explanation, the recent U.S. government practice of disclosing the current size of the nuclear weapons stockpile.
The decision was revealed in a recent Department of Energy letter to the Federation of American Scientists, a private group that studies nuclear weapons issues and advocates for government openness on national security issues.
The Obama administration, in May 2010, had declassified for the first time the full history of the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile from its beginning in 1945. It revealed that the warhead total stood at 5,113 as of Sept. 30, 2009, approximately the number that private experts had estimated and about 84 percent below the official peak number of 31,255 warheads in 1967.

Senate Oks Much Wider Funds Probe
Deal Makes Democrats Happy
March 12, 1997|By Mary Jacoby, Washington Bureau.
WASHINGTON — After a surprise revolt by rank-and-file Republicans, the Senate on Tuesday ended weeks of wrangling over the scope of its campaign finance investigation by voting to broaden the jurisdiction to include "improper" as well as "illegal" activities.
The vote on the key amendment was 99-0, with Sen. Christopher Dodd (D-Conn.) abstaining. Dodd served as general chairman of the Democratic National Committee during the 1996 presidential campaign, which is expected to be a primary focus of the Senate investigation.
The one-word mission change means that all sorts of questionable, though perhaps not illegal, campaign activity will be open to examination. That includes "soft money" raised in unlimited amounts by both parties and the political activitiescampaign finance system generally and perhaps build pressure for campaign finance reform.
A broad investigation also would have distinguished the Senate's effort from probes being conducted by the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee and the Justice Department into possible Asian influence-peddling with the Clinton campaign.
With the help of Majority Leader Trent Lott (R-Miss.), GOP Sens. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky and Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania rammed a resolution through the Rules Committee last week to narrow the focus of the Senate investigation to illegal activities.
Democrats reacted with outrage and had prepared a slew of amendments for the Senate floor. Privately, however, most Democrats already had conceded that the GOP leadership had won the battle.
Then on Tuesday morning, the GOP's deal began to unravel as Sen. Arlen Specter (R-Pa.) said | {

LONDON — What would you give young apprentices of Barcelona for Christmas? They belong to an elite school. They enter the academy at nine years of age, but they wait and they wait while Barça’s first team, full of world champions, plays dream soccer.
And then, with 84,000 at the Camp Nou stadium, the coach Pep Guardiola says “Boys, this is your call. Take your chance.” The Barcelona story is set to run and run. On Tuesday, with the club already assured the top place in its Champions League group, the coach fielded a largely second-string squad, and still Barça beat the Russian champion, Rubin Kazan, 2-0.
Thiago Alcántara, the already vaunted midfield understudy to Xavi, excelled again. Defender Andreu Fontàs overcame nerves to score in his Champions League debut.And then Víctor Vázquez, a reserve to the reserves, came on to curl the ball into the Kazan net.
Seldom do you hear Guardiola single out a player for specific praise, but he made an exception for Vázquez who, at 23, has come through harrowing knee injury to finally share the nectar of a big victory at the Camp Nou. | {
