Based solely on Hillesum’s words, the play brings us to 1941 when Esther “Etty” Hillesum, a young Dutch Jewish woman, is living in German-occupied Amsterdam. As deportations begin, she digs deeper into her soul to understand this piece of history and root out any hatred or bitterness, believing that humanity is the best and only solution for survival. Etty was made available by the Wheeling chapter of Classrooms Without Borders (CWB) and their program director, Barb Lewine.

Daily Journey - November 30 [Ezekiel 14] Certain of the elders of Israel now came to Ezekiel, evidently to hear what message he had to deliver to them. The word of the Lord revealed to him that whatever their outward attitude might be, they were at heart idolaters, and he was charged to declare to them that while idolatry remained in their heart they were necessarily estranged from Jehovah. HeTony Award winner Andrew Lloyd Webber is in talks for a new reality television program that will search for an actor to play Jesus in a stadium tour of Jesus Christ Superstar, according to Whatsonstage.com. Andrew Lloyd Webber Photo by Aubrey Reuben Lloyd Webber, who was also involved in the BBC reality program for the West End's Wizard of Oz, is prepping Superstar for a 2012 stadium tour that would kick off in the States before hitting the O2 in England. As previously reported, Lloyd Webber told Britain's Daily Telegraph last year that the world tour would "go back to its rock roots." He also commented, "Every major artist I've spoken to has said they want to be in it. I'm not going to name names, but I'm getting demo tapes from

some of the top artists in the world. It's extraordinary. We want to play 200 arenas in America and they are planning the route for the U.S. tour already. Then, hopefully, there will be a world tour, going through the O2 in England. I'm very excited about it." Lloyd Webber won Best Original Score Tony Awards for his work on Evita, Cats and Sunset Boulevard. His other Broadway credits include The Woman in White, Bombay Dreams, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, The Phantom of the Opera, Aspects of Love and Starlight Express, among others. A Broadway revival of Jesus Christ Superstar will arrive later this season.on the other. He discerns a major current of homoeroticism that runs through both Islamic life and letters and through Orientalism (in the old, academic meaning and Said’s gloss on that term). There may have existed an enduring European fantasy about homosexual life in the Middle East and North Africa, but Boone shows that there was also a reality behind such dreams and nightmares: sex and the aesthetic representation of same-sex experiences. Boone’s work is especially rich in material about Persia and Ottoman Turkey. Indeed, he explores a large archive of writing about indigenous male same-sex attraction in the Middle East, as well as in early voyagers’ accounts of the region. He has unearthed a large corpus of miniature paintings with blatantly homoerotic themes, including stunning images of men
{ "pile_set_name": [ "Pile-CC", "Pile-CC" ] }
1,343,619
and their partners communing in gardens, coffeehouses, and hamams--and he has been well served by his publisher in the reproduction, in black-and-white and in color, of these images. They give the lie to any declaration about the absence of a tradition of homosexual sex and love in the precolonial Islamic world, and they constitute some of the most stunning works in any gallery of homoerotic art. Boone also brings to light a number of interesting later works and their homoerotic texture, such as the multivolume (but unfinished) encyclopedia written by the Turk Resat Ekrem Koçu in the mid-twentieth century. The variety of manifestations of homoeroticism is amply clear. Persian miniatures portray sex between older and younger men and between those of similar age; they depict a whole repertoire ofsexual acts and courtship behaviours; and they aestheticise the practice of sodomy. Such variety continues: in more recent imagery, a sheik sodomises Uncle Sam in one Western image, while homosexuality has begun appearing on the Arab cinema screen, and some tantalizing homoerotic photographs have been found in the ruins of a Taliban stronghold. The tone of The Homoerotics of Orientalism is measured and thoughtful. Boone provides a salubriously critical reading of Foucault, who cared little about the non-European world, and Said, who expressed little interest in homosexuality. While never denying racialist and colonialist undertones in commentaries on Middle Eastern culture, Boone is happily more concerned to identify and discuss homoerotic themes in literature and art than to fabricate an overarching political strategy behind them. Among these tropes are the

NASCAR Fantasy Blog NASCAR Fantasy Preview: Chicago Share this video What drivers should be at the top of the fantasy wishlist for this weekend's race at Chicago It pays to get off to a strong start in the playoffs. This is true both for racers and fantasy players and traditionally, the contenders perform best in the opening weeks of the Chase. Last year, Brad Keselowski won the Geico 400 and kicked off his championship bid in style. He was joined at the front of the pack by Jimmie Johnson and Kasey Kahne who finished second and third, respectively. Five other Chase contenders grabbed one of the seven remaining top-10 positions. In the first 10 years of NASCAR’s playoff-style championship, Chase contenders have averaged a finish of 13.5 in the final 10 races of theto score maximum points and he slipped into third during the final green flag run. Prior to that, he spent much of the race feeling out his car and getting into position, so he scored only the eighth-most points in the game, but with a modest salary cap that only recently topped the $25 mark, he is still a good value. It is much too soon to crown Joey Logano as the king of the similarly-configured, 1.5-mile tracks, but his coronation could take place by the time the series reaches Texas. He has run strong in every race on this track type and recently he has had the results to back up his claim for supremacy. Logano earned top-fives at Texas, Charlotte, and Kentucky Speedway, but there was a

little question mark about odds at Atlanta Motor Speedway since he struggled there in the past. He had the dominant car for most of the evening that week and would have challenged for the lead if he had not been shuffled backwards on a late-race restart. He finished second, but even then earned the most points in the NASCAR Fantasy Live game. Kyle Busch won the Atlanta AdvoCare 500 and staked his claim as one of the favorites on the remaining similarly-configured, 1.5-mile tracks. Dating back to this race last year, he has been an all or nothing driver on this course type with top-fives in seven of 10 races including a fourth in the 2012 Geico 400. His other three results were in the 30s, but mostly occasionedby crash damage. If he stays out of trouble, another top-five is in the offing. His raw numbers during the past eight years at this track are not overly exciting according to NASCAR Statistical Services since he hovers around seventh or eighth in most of the categories that produce points in the NASCAR Fantasy Live game, but he has improved in the past three years to score the fifth-most points on average. Dark Horses Marcos Ambrose was a pleasant surprise at Atlanta. He ran among the top five for nearly 50 laps and was with the leaders on the final restart. He got pushed back to 13th in the official rundown, but that was his third consecutive top-15 on this track type. His best effort on the 1.5-milers came at

1,343,704
Charlotte in the Coca-Cola 600 and he is capable of repeating that feat especially when one considers that the Richard Petty Motorsports teams tested at Chicagoland in late August. Ambrose’s teammate Aric Almirola was strong on this track type at the beginning of the season with top-10s at Texas and Kansas, so he should also be watched closely in practice and qualification. Brian Vickers took a wild spin through the infield in the Atlanta AdvoCare 500 and that could have easily ended his day. The team made repairs, Vickers kept his emotions under control, and slipped into the top 10 in the final laps of that race to solidify his choice as a dark horse contender on similarly-configured, 1.5-mile tracks. This week, he should post comparable numbers because Chicagolandwith top-10s at Vegas, Texas, and Kansas, but his latest three efforts at Charlotte, Kentucky, and Atlanta have all been star-crossed. He suffered crash damage in the Coke 600 and Quaker State 400; he blew an engine in the AdvoCare 500, and those misfortunes have to factor into his odds for this week. One other matter to consider is that Keselowski has finished worse than he started in more than 75 percent of his most recent 17 attempts and that has cost fantasy owners points in the place differential column. Dale Earnhardt Jr. stopped his downward slide with strong runs at Bristol Motor Speedway and Atlanta in recent weeks, but there still seems to be a lot of work left to do before this team contends for top-fives on

unrestricted, intermediate speedways. On the 1.5-mile versions, he suffered through a terrible spring and summer with four consecutive results outside the top 10 at Texas, Kansas, Charlotte, and Kentucky, which counterbalances moderately strong runs at Vegas and Atlanta. Since the best-case scenario is a finish on the high side of the single digits, there are other drivers more worthy of the gamble and less costly for fantasy players.

Little did Pedro know that 33 years later this same place would inspire Brenner to write the story of the Roman Catholic icon, Our Lady of Guadalupe. Pedro came to a realization one day as he visited the place he had seen many times before in his life. "It was really hard for me to believe the basilica one day would be almost empty, when it usually takes hours just to get from any parking space available, to get in front of the image of our Lady of Guadalupe,”

The results from FT-IR, EA, XRD, and TGA showed that the chitin under investigation was in alpha form. These analyses did not show significant differences between female and male chitins, but chitin content was determined to be higher in males than females. Additionally, enzymatic digestion of the grasshoppers' chitins and commercial chitin was performed using chitinase from *Streptomyces griseus.* Potassium ferricyanide assay of the products released during the enzymatic digestion suggested that there were small differences in the quantity of the hydrolytic products of the extracted chitins from either sex or the commercial chitin.

the first time Wednesday, Turkish trade unionists joined the unprecedented protests against Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan over what they see as his authoritarian rule. Members of more than a dozen unions chanting "Tayyip resign" marched down a major avenue towards Taksim Square. There were similar protests against Erdogan, prime minister for over 10 years and winner of three elections, in Kizilay Park in the capital Ankara. (Photo: AFP) A group of activists calling themselves "Solidarity Taksim" held a press conference Wednesday, announcing they had passed on their demands to Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arinc during a meeting held with him. The activist group denounced Erdogan's "vexing" style and urged the government to halt Taksim Square redevelopment plans, ban the use of tear gas by police, the immediate release of all detained protestersand the lifting of restrictions on freedom of expression and assembly. It also demanded that officials – including governors and senior police officials – responsible for the violent crackdown on the protests be removed from office. Additionally, hackers calling themselves "Anonymous Turkey" said they had attacked government systems and obtained confidential details of staff in Erdogan's office. A source in the prime minister's office confirmed staff email accounts had come under a phishing attack but said those affected had been cut off from the network. Enduring settlement In the meantime, in Taksim, thousands remained at a makeshift camp that is taking on the look of a more enduring settlement.

the square some protesters skirmished overnight with police who used tear gas. Overall, protests appeared to calm a bit on Wednesday, even as thousands of trade union members on a two-day strike marched to Taksim and into central Ankara. Some demonstrations were jovial. In Ankara, protesters sarcastically called themselves "looters," a reference to Erdogan's earlier characterization of the demonstrators. A sign on a stall in Taksim providing free food and water read "Revolution Market." There were scattered violent clashes overnight on roads leading to Erdogan's offices in Ankara and Istanbul, as well as in the city of Antakya, near the Syrian border, where a protester was killed Wednesday from an apparent blow to the head. Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arinc, who is standing in for Erdogan while he is on a tripto Northern Africa, has offered an olive branch to protesters, apologizing for what he said was a "wrong and unjust" crackdown on the original sit-in which sparked the protest. Erdogan had inflamed protesters, calling them an extremist fringe, and refusing to back away from plans to revamp Taksim.

The French language has gone into decline in Europe over the last 4 years, according to a study published this week by the IOF. But large gains in Sub-Saharan Africa have driven a 7% increase in the world’s francophone population. According to the study The French Language in the World, published by the International Organisation for la Francophonie (IOF), the number of Francophones in the world has increased by 7% since 2010, and now stands at 274 million. This makes French one of the fastest growing languages in the world. Imma Tor, Director of French Language at the IOF, said that this “debunks the myth that French is a language in decline,” and that this was an old “cliché, with no evidence to back it up”. She added that thepresence of French on all continents, and its use across all sectors of business and society, placed it “alone, along with English, in displaying the characteristics of a truly global language”. At the launch of the study on 12 November, Alexandre Wolff, the head of the IOF’s French Language Observatory, defined a Francophone as “a person who can express himself with relative ease in French”; a definition including those born into a French-speaking environment as well as those who speak it as a second language. He added that a person’s status as a francophone depended on their ability to use the language rather than the regularity with which they use it. >> Read: Will the Commission become multilingual with new polyglot Commissioners?

widely spoken language in the European Union and the second most widely learned language in the world, but despite its strong international position, the outlook for French in Europe is not so encouraging. Over the last four years, the number of French-speakers in the continent has fallen by 8%. In the non-francophone regions of Belgium, Switzerland and Luxembourg, French remains the most commonly taught foreign language, but elsewhere in Europe, the teaching of French is in decline. In Germany, for example, French is still the second most commonly taught foreign language, but according to the study, its “reputation as a difficult language to learn,” and the rising popularity of other languages, particularly Spanish, threaten this position. In Austrian schools, French has already been overtaken by Italian as the second mostchildren at home, as it is the common language of the local labour markets. In a region of such linguistic diversity, French is also vitally important for international trade, and the strong economic performance of many Sub-Saharan economies in recent years has placed French as a language of opportunity in Africa and beyond. French is the language of choice for dealings between Chinese investors and African businesses, and is now the third most commonly learned foreign language in China, after English and Russian.

NEW YORK — On the eve of New York’s Primary Day, Democratic Presidential Candidate Bernie Sanders camp released a powerful campaign ad. The ad, clearly targeted to Muslim New Yorkers is meant to tug at the very heart of Islamophobia and meant to rally Muslim new Yorkers around Sanders as the candidate who has their back. According to the Muslim Democratic Club of New York, there are at least a 100,000 registered Muslim New York voters. Over 70 percent are estimated to be Democrats. Sanders outreach to this particular sector of the community is a pivotal reason why it appears the majority are throwing their support to Sanders over his competitor, front-runner Hillary Clinton. “It’s a very competitive primary I think it’s more competitive than anyone believed it to be.

Russian interference abroad dates from the tsarist era, but the grasp of the Russian bear was extended dramatically after the Communist Revolution of 1917, the dolorous centenary of which approaches. Under Soviet communism, America was designated quickly as the epicenter of capitalist power and the ultimate foe. As Russian governance is bureaucratically rigid, with state

decisions based on long-established norms, it should be no surprise to see that “active measures” against Moscow’s adversaries continued despite the fall of the Soviet empire. The Russian hand in American leftist politics was visible and distinctive already by 1919, as soon as pro-Soviet Communist groups had been organized on our shores. No previous radical movement in this country owed its financing or loyalty to a foreign government. Nor did any earlier protest organization carry out periodic membership purges or maintain an underground apparatus and a military section, as required of American Communists by the Communist International or Comintern. In the hundred years since the Bolshevik coup in St. Petersburg the Russian regime and its agencies consummated a series of operations aimed mainly at undermining the United States, some ofwhich were breathtaking in their audacity and success. For example, the Russian use of business relationships to gain influence is hardly new. The late Armand Hammer, creator of Occidental Petroleum Corp., was designated by Lenin himself as a favored capitalist agent for the Russians. Nor is the manipulation of protest parties new. In 1924, a third “Progressive” Party ran Senator Robert M. LaFollette, a Wisconsin Republican, as an alternative presidential candidate to the successful Republican incumbent, Calvin Coolidge, and the Democrat John W. Davis. LaFollette received nearly five million votes, or 17 percent of the total, but won only his home state, with 13 electors. His campaign was marred by Communist infiltration under the direction of the Comintern. Russian blandishments involving Republican personalities, including some from New York, are therefore

nothing new. In 1934 a certain Vito Marcantonio was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from East Harlem as a Republican, in a political environment where Democrats, as today, were considered irredeemably corrupt. He served one term as a Republican before losing in 1936. In 1938 Marcantonio returned to Congress for the first of six terms representing the “American Labor Party,” in which guise he served as a mouthpiece for the Communists, and therefore the Russian authorities. As one feature of his long service to the Kremlin, Marcantonio was a prominent figure in the first great “peace offensive,” during the 1939-41 Hitler-Stalin Pact, as the pro-Soviet left offered pretexts for isolationist rhetoric. Communist-controlled unions called for “peace” strikes among workers producing warplanes for besieged Britain. The pseudo-folk Almanacagain based in the machinations of a “Progressive” party.

Tags [This talk was delivered at the Ron Paul Institute’s Conference on Breaking Washington’s Addiction to War.] Murray Rothbard was the creator of the modern libertarian movement and a close friend of both Ron Paul and me. His legacy was a great one, and at the Mises Institute I try every day to live up to his hopes for us. One issue was the most important to him, of all the many issues that concerned him. This was the issue of war and peace. Because of his support for a peaceful, noninterventionist foreign policy for America, the CIA agent William F. Buckley blacklisted him from National Review and tried, fortunately without success, to silence his voice. During the 1950’s, Murray worked for the Volker Fund, and in a letter to Ken Templetonlikewise diminish. Since government programs do not have a habit of diminishing but instead seek new justifications when the old ones no longer exist, few of us were surprised when the warfare state, and its right-wing apologists, hummed right along after its initial rationale vanished from history. As it turns out, by the way, the Soviet threat was grossly exaggerated, as such threats always are. The wickedness of the Soviet regime was never in doubt, but its capabilities and intentions were consistently distorted and overblown. Despite the dubious foundations on which the hysterical claims behind the alleged “Soviet threat” rested, its existence ossified into one of the unchallengeable orthodoxies of National Review and of the broader conservative movement then being born. When Murray pointed out the silliness of the whole thing,

not to mention the counterproductive nature of American military intervention abroad, he quickly became an un-person at National Review, which had published him in its early years. Well before there was an official “conservative movement,” with its magazines, its crusty orthodoxies, its ineffectual think-tanks (complete with sinecures for ex-politicians) and its craving for respectability, there was a loose, less formal association of writers and intellectuals who opposed Franklin Roosevelt (in both his domestic and foreign policies), a group Murray dubbed the “Old Right.” There was no party line among these intrepid thinkers because there was nobody to impose one. Even into the 1950s and the advance of the Cold War, voices of restraint amidst the remnants of the Old Right could still be found. In a 1966 article, Murray points toeconomic colonial system of Europe, which represents, even in its capitalistic pattern, the last remnants of feudalism…. We leave these awakening peoples with no choice but to turn to Russian and communist comfort and promise of Utopia. Murray likewise made note of a 1953 article by George Morgenstern, editorial writer for the Chicago Tribune, in Human Events (“now become a hack organ for the ‘Conservative Movement,’” Murray lamented in 1966) that deplored the imperialist tradition in American history. Morgenstern ridiculed those who “swoon on very sight of the phrase ‘world leadership,’” and wrote: An all-pervasive propaganda has established a myth of inevitability in American action: all wars were necessary, all wars were good. The burden of proof rests with those who contend that America is better off, that American security

has been enhanced, and that prospects of world peace have been improved by American intervention in four wars in half a century. Intervention began with deceit by McKinley; it ends with deceit by Roosevelt and Truman. Perhaps we would have a rational foreign policy…if Americans could be brought to realize that the first necessity is the renunciation of the lie as an instrument of foreign policy. With the advent of National Review, these increasingly isolated voices would be silenced and marginalized. Even the heroic John T. Flynn, whose anti-FDR biography The Roosevelt Myth had reached number two on the New York Times bestseller list, was turned away from National Review when he tried to warn of the dangers of a policy of military interventionism. Why did Murray oppose war? Hereportrayed as evidence of the incorrigible wickedness of the private sector. But when the United States government launches indefensible wars against Iraq and Afghanistan, spreading death, destruction, and dislocation to an extraordinary number of people, there is some anger, to be sure, among opponents of the policy. Yet even most opponents of the war stop short of drawing sweeping conclusions from this about the nature of the state. They remain in thrall to what they learned in high school civics, where the state is described as a great and progressive institution. Not even the horrors of war cause them to revisit this crippling assumption. And the next time they’re on an airplane, they’ll applaud the soldiers who fought in that very war.

Kenneth Johnson, senior demographer at the Carsey Institute and professor of sociology at UNH, pointed out that though minorities accounted for the majority of rural population gain between 2000 and 2010, minorities still only represent just 21 percent of the rural population overall. Yet, what makes this discovery promising is the children in Latino families who are settling in rural America.No room at the shelter On a single day last year, nearly 100 people came to domestic violence shelters in the state and were told there wasn't room for them, according to a report this month by the National Network to End Domestic Violence. Every year, the agency takes a 24-hour census of domestic violence shelters across the country on a random date. This time, the network looked at 1,649 programs nationwide on Sept. 17. On that day, more than 66,000 victims of domestic violence received help from shelters nationwide, 855 in Connecticut. However, the census also found that about 10,000 more victims were told they couldn't be helped because of inadequate resources. In Connecticut, 103 requests for some sort of service were made those coping with abuse that couldn't be met.

The majority of those people -- 98 -- were seeking shelter or transitional housing. This is the highest amount of unmet need the census has unearthed in the state since it began in 2006, said Karen Jarmoc, executive director of the Connecticut Coalition Against Domestic Violence, which represents the state's 18 domestic violence organizations. (The national census examined only 15 Connecticut shelters.) That's not surprising, as more people have become aware of the domestic violence services offered in the state, she said. "Clearly, the need for housing is a huge issue," Jarmoc said. "The minute a bed becomes available, it's filled." Though the National Network census didn't specify the number of people turned away from individual shelters on the day studied, the Connecticut coalition had statistics about service denials for fiscalyear 2013. During that period, which ran from July 1, 2012, to June 30, 2013, the Center for Family Justice in Bridgeport was unable to shelter nine people due to a lack of beds. At Women's Center of Greater Danbury, there were 45 denials due to a lack of beds, and there were 26 such denials at the Domestic Violence Crisis Center in Stamford. Greenwich doesn't have a shelter, but the domestic abuse services program at the Greenwich YMCA connects victims with short-term shelter in safe homes. It didn't experience a lack of beds last year. Jarmoc explained that a "denial" doesn't mean a victim was turned away from the shelter with no further assistance. She said even when a bed isn't available, advocates at domestic violence centers "try to make

Appearing as guests on Thursday's CNN Tonight, former CBS anchor Dan Rather and former ABC anchor Sam Donaldson declared that President Donald Trump is "out-Nixoning Nixon" on the Ukraine issue, with Donaldson claiming that there is a "smoking transcript" and Rather suggesting that it is already time to "roll the credits on a mob movie" based on President Trump and Rudy Giuliani's activities. At 10:46 p.m. Eastern, host Don Lemon introduced the segment: "The coverup, the tapes, and a President under a cloud of impeachment. Is President Trump out-Nixoning Nixon? Who better to ask than two legends?" As Rather began his analysis, he suggested that the matter is worse than the Watergate scandal: Certainly it's reminiscent of the Watergate period in the 1970s, but there is this big difference, and IThe physiological construction of the neurone concept (1891-1952). Steps in the physiological construction of the neurone concept are described. Early ideas on the function of the nerve cell led to later polemics on the neurone doctrine and the speculative attitude of histophysiology. Researches of Sherrington and Adrian emerged from a specific British context, and confronted American oscillography and Berger rhythm. At the end of various polemics, the neurone was constructed by the intracellular technique and the use of concepts borrowed from other sub-disciplines. Analysis of these paths demonstrates underlying disciplinary interactions as essential factors.

News & Events Asset Flows Update April 2019 | Eurekahedge The Eurekahedge Hedge Fund Index was up 1.06%1 in March, wrapping the first quarter of the year gaining 4.36% year-to-date. Hedge fund managers narrowly trailed behind the global equity market as represented by the MSCI AC World Index2 which gained 1.09% in March. The global equity and bond markets have rallied through the first quarter of 2019, supported by the dovish stance exhibited by major central banks, as well as the optimism over the US-China trade negotiations. On the other hand, concerns over slowing economic growth have persisted through the quarter, with growth forecasts being cut. The majority of hedge fund managers tracked by Eurekahedge recorded positive returns in March, with those focusing on Asia ex-Japan countries posting strongest gains.married man with children, went on trial at the Circuit Criminal Court charged with sexually assaulting a woman after getting into her bed in a hotel room in the west of Ireland. As the trial was about enter its final stages, the accused changed his plea to guilt on a single count of sexual assault contrary to Section 2 of the Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1990. At the previous hearing, evidence was heard that the accused is known to the complainant and travelled with her, as part of an eight-strong group to a charity event in a west of Ireland town in July 2015. The victim was the only female present. The group then stayed overnight in an apartment which forms part of a local hotel complex. The victim told the court the

group had enjoyed drinks and played card games as the evening wore on. She said that she had put on her pajamas and retired to the double bed she was later to share with her husband. The female gave evidence that she was awakened from sleep by a man who was molesting her. The victim then explained that as a bedside locker light was switched on by her husband her attacker got out of bed with his trousers down. She gave evidence she was highly distressed afterwards and was comforted and cuddled by her husband. The court heard that on the following day the victim and her husband got a Facebook message from the accused in which he apologised to both of them for what had happened. In the message, the accused claimed notto remember much about what had happened. He added: "Unfortunately, loads of beer and Captain Morgan's (rum) do not fit well with me." The message continued: "I can only guess that in my drunken stupor I went to the wrong bed." In an emotional and lengthy victim impact statement which she read to today's sentencing hearing, the victim said being betrayed by a person she then regarded as a friend while in that most vulnerable state - sleeping - left her sick to the very core. She spoke of her initial difficulties in reporting the incident. “Who would take my word above that of a garda who is supposed to be a pillar of the community and above the law?” All her emotional torment could have been avoided in 2015 if he had pleaded

about pretty much everything? He always speaks lovingly about his favorite subject—himself. He spent an entire campaign talking about the size of his victories, the size of his rallies, the size of his Twitter following, the excellence of his golf game, and the greatness of his company. A more recent theme, as he prepared to shoulder the burdens of office, has been that the man who followed him on his clammy reality-TV show has lower ratings than when he was on it. Trump’s messy birdcage of a mind careers from one random thought to the next. He likes to strut and talk big-league. One of his ongoing observations—in tweets and elsewhere—is that “many people” have been calling him “the Ernest Hemingway of Twitter!” These are presumably people who havecomments at the Golden Globes—about Trump’s mocking gestures in reference to disabled New York Times reporter Serge Kovaleski—was enough to be worried about. Then he hurled insults at Georgia Congressman John Lewis, a living icon of the civil-rights movement. Really? John Lewis? If he feels that he can so blithely attack two of the most respected people in the country, who is off limits? Trump was always a bad loser. But in the weeks since his disputed victory in the election we’ve discovered that this preening narcissist is also a very bad winner.

It was — as Environment Canada aptly called it at year's end — the ice storm of the century. From Jan. 5 to 10, 1998, freezing rain and ice pellets battered a wide swath of eastern Canada, plastering affected areas with heavy ice that toppled power and phone lines, trees, utility poles and electrical transmission towers. More than 85 millimetres of freezing rain and ice pellets fell on Ottawa. An additional 108 millimetres fell on Cornwall, and 73 millimetres hit Kingston. Farmers lost livestock and faced thousands of dollars in damage to barns and other infrastructure. Countless drivers ended up ditches because of slippery roads. Families went days, even weeks and months, without electricity. The storm was also deadly: 35 people died, according to Public Safety Canada's final accounting of the crisis. Morethan 900 were injured, and thousands more had to be evacuated from their homes. A worker clears layers of ice off the roof of the former Langevin Block building in Ottawa during the 1998 ice storm. (Jonathan Hayward/The Canadian Press) 'We were there for each other' Prime Minister Justin Trudeau issued a statement Thursday to mark the day freezing rain began to fall in 1998. "The storm paralyzed eastern Canada, as day-to-day routines became nearly impossible. Without electricity, heat, food, and water, people were forced out of their homes and businesses could not stay open. The freezing rain made all forms of transportation treacherous. Impassable roads hindered basic services and made it difficult for emergency vehicles to help those most in need," the statement reads. "Meanwhile, Canadians welcomed neighbours, friends, and family into

Heavily populated areas like Ottawa and Montreal, as well as smaller communities like Kingston and Cornwall, were hit hard by the 1998 ice storm. (Statistics Canada) Largest deployment since Korean War As well, Canadian Forces members from about 200 units across the country descended upon the hardest-hit areas. They provided food and shelter, moved the sick and injured to safety, and helped hydro crews restore power. Dubbed "Operation Recuperation," it was the largest deployment of troops ever to respond to a Canadian natural disaster. It was also the largest deployment of Canadian military personnel since the Korean War.And while the bill would eventually come to about $60 million, for many communities, it was money well spent.

The World Trade Organization sided with Washington in January in a complaint that Beijing was failing to enforce patents, copyrights and trademarks aggressively enough.

asked whether Bosma was still alive. "That's all I can say." According to investigators, Bosma had listed his truck for sale on Kijiji.com, and the men contacted him through the phone number he left on his advertisement. But Bosma may not have been the first to be targeted by the two suspects. Police have traced the cell phone number used to contact Bosma and learned the same number was used to set up a meeting to test drive a similar truck in Toronto the previous day. The owner of that vehicle confirmed for police that he had a similar run-in with two suspicious men one day before Bosma disappeared. [ Related: Wife of missing Hamilton man pleads for his safe return ] Kavanagh said the man was also trying to sell his truckonline and on May 5, he met with two men under very similar circumstances. The two men walked to a meeting with him in an industrial area and took the car for a test drive, with the taller of the two driving and the other man sitting in the back seat, behind the truck’s owner. Kavanagh says something about the experience felt odd to the man, and he now suspects he may have been targeted by the same suspects. "Fortunately for this person he was a very large individual. I think he probably would have overpowered the both of them. That was his advantage," Kavanagh told reporters. The two suspects are described as white men in their mid-20s.

with high purchasing power, and curiosity to know other cultures and experiences (that’s a direct translation from the government). In a statement made by the executive director of LGBTQ Confex, Rubén Sandoval, Mexico has become an increasingly attractive market for the LGBTQ community due to the advances in the recognition of rights, tourism promotion campaigns, and awareness training driven by the Federal government. Mexico is one of the most visited countries for lesbian-gay tourists and retirees in Latin America. The Mexican Secretary of Tourism states that Mexico receives around three and a half million tourists from the LGBTQ community annually. Mexico is only surpassed in Latin America by the cities of Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires. Thanks to 50km of sandy beaches, Mazatlán became one of Mexico’s most alluring andare demonstrated. More About Mazatlan, Sinaloa Where the Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific Ocean, Mazatlan is the largest seaport between Los Angeles and the Panama Canal. On the coast at the base of the Sierra Madre Mountains, Mazatlan is widely known as a sports fisher’s paradise for deep-sea adventures with a reel. The city carries the tagline “Pearl of the Pacific” to reflect its thriving shrimp and fish export industry. A fun-loving place for Dia de Los Muertos festivals in autumn and Carnaval in spring, Mazatlan hosts the world’s third-largest Mardi Gras-themed celebration, outdone only by New Orleans and Rio de Janeiro.

oceanfront pathways, popular for strolling, jogging, biking, and people-watching. Scattered with Instagram-worthy monuments and exceptional views along the 5-mile stretch between the Golden Zone and Playa Olas Altas, there’s plenty of daytime activity. The golden sand beach at Playa Olas Altas is favored by the locals for its less-touristy atmosphere, a place where cafes are more reasonably priced than at Playa Las Gaviotas, a far more crowded beach beside the Golden Zone’s hotels. Marina, Golden Zone, and Old Town Tourists who do visit should stick to the principal areas in Mazatlan. The peninsula is divided into three main sections of interest: the Golden Zone, Old Mazatlan, and the Marina. At the northern end of the hotel, zone is the Marina district, where El Cid Marina Beach Hotel is a luxuryresort with private beach, golf, and tennis; some cruises offer passengers a day pass. The Golden Zone encompasses the main tourist area where most of the hotels, restaurants, bars, and clubs are found. Four miles south is Old Mazatlan with its cobblestoned streets radiating from Plaza de la Republica. It’s filled with attractive colonial architecture, pastel-painted shopfronts, sidewalk cafes and restaurants surrounding a Victorian-era gazebo for outdoor concerts under the orange trees and palms. Just south of the square, Angela Peralta Theater is a distinctive landmark. Additional highlights of Mazatlan’s downtown scene are historic Plaza Machado and Immaculate Conception Cathedral, a 19th-century basilica of Gothic, Moorish and Baroque influences.

up and coming destination for the experienced traveler in search of the perfect blend of luxury, authenticity and culture. Mo matter what brings you to this region of Mexico – the Mayan Ruins, a cruise ship that docks for just a day or even a gay wedding – you’ll be glad your travels led you here. MEXICO CITY Unique Fact: although gay marriage is not yet legal in Mexico, in Mexico City it is legal. Mexico City (CDMX) is the first state to approve gay marriage and is the most progressive in the country. And Mexico City is enormous… one of the largest cities on the planet with about 24 million residents (the “county” not the urban area). With large spaces dedicated exclusively to the gay public, such as Zona Rosa, MexicoCity has had official campaigns in which they demand respect for sexual diversity from their inhabitants. Rosa is the equivalent of Hillcrest in my San Diego. Stroll through the colonies of Condesa, Polanco, Juárez and Napoles of the Mexican capital and see the free expression of love of a large number of same-sex couples. GUADALAJARA Even though Mexico City is the most gay friendly city in all of Mexico, it is in Guadalajara where more gay people live (a larger population). In recent years the establishments dedicated to the LGBTQ community have multiplied. The historic center of Guadalajara includes a wide range of gastronomic offerings and nightly entertainment, and the proximity to Puerto Vallarta, a coastal city with an active gay population, makes the capital of Jalisco an important gay center.

On Thursday, the agency revealed three other consular offices are being eyed in Malolos City, Bulacan; Paniqui, Tarlac; and Ozamiz City or Oroquieta City in Mindanao. According to DFA Assistant Secretary for Consular Affairs Frank Cimafranca, the opening of new offices will significantly boost the agency’s efforts to improve its capacity to meet the unprecedented surge in passport demand. Aside from opening new consular offices, Cimafranca said the DFA has also doubled the number of vans for its Passport on Wheels Program and expanded its Mobile Outreach Services to allow it to accommodate more passport applicants, not only in Metro Manila but in the provinces as well. Its main passport office inAseana, Parañaque City has also been doing Saturday work since January. “We can be expected to continue our efforts to not only increase our passport production capacity but also make our consular services more accessible to the public,” he said.

Worldwide demand for natural gas is growing and discoveries in the eastern Mediterranean are changing the European Union's policies on its energy supplies. For decades, it has relied on Russia for gas. But Israel, Greece and Cyprus have signed off on a project for a pipeline that would lessen Europe's dependence on Moscow. The supply will connect Israel's offshore fields with Europe and is expected to meet about 10 percent of the EU's demand for natural gas. But that unites the three signatories in opposition to Turkey and Libya. Last month, Ankara and Tripoli agreed on a new maritime boundary they call their Exclusive Economic Zone. They say this gives them full rights to exploit natural resources in the eastern Mediterranean, including oil and gas. How is this deal shaping politics in the region?

The report of the laboratory analysis and attached report of the medical examiner indicate that the blood sample was drawn by R.E. Ringrose, M.D., the Logan County medical examiner who conducted the examination into the cause of March's death on the morning of his death and signed the death certificate. The report also shows that the sample was sent to the office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Oklahoma City, where it was analyzed by Richard W. Prouty, the Chief Forensic Toxicologist, whoinference that March was intoxicated is supported by the following evidence. Donald Green testified there were a lot of empty and partially full cans of three different brands of beer at the accident site. Susan Jenson, also traveling with her husband southbound through Oklahoma on I-H 35 the night of the accident, testified that March's truck passed her at a speed of 55 to 65 m.p.h., journeyed off the road past the right shoulder, veered back onto the road and went off the left shoulder before straightening out. She testified that she awoke to find her husband traveling at a high rate of speed and placing a call for emergency assistance on the CB. She stated he was following a semi-truck far ahead of them.

Paul Jenson testified that the truck passed them several times and stated that the truck was weaving across the roadway and shoulder and almost struck the front of their car on one occasion. He stated that when he attempted to call the driver on his CB, the response was "weird." He testified it was after the truck again passed them at a high rate of speed, swerving, that he became concerned for the safety of the others on the road and tried to follow the truck while calling for help. Finally, the jury received the traffic collision report in which the investigating officer noted an odor of alcoholicbeverage about March's body. Given the evidence of March's speeding, swerving and near collisions, the presence of alcohol containers at the accident site, the odor of alcohol on March's person and the presence of alcohol in his bloodstream, the jury's finding that March was not in the course of his employment is supported by probative evidence. Points of error one and two are overruled. In points five and six, the Marches complain that the court's charge placed the burden of disproving intoxication on them and constituted an impermissible comment on the weight of the evidence.

Air guns may be powered by, for example, a coil spring assembly or a gas spring assembly. Air guns typically include a compression tube that defines a compression chamber, and is attached to a trigger assembly. A barrel is attached to the compression tube and is in fluid communication with the compression chamber. When powered by a coil spring assembly, the coil spring assembly is housed within the compression chamber of the rifle. The coil spring assembly includes a coil spring coupled to a piston. Cocking the gun moves the piston, which compresses the coil spring until a latch on the rear of the piston engages a sear on the trigger assembly.

axis of the piston, instead of off-line, radially spaced from the longitudinal axis of the piston, adjacent an outer radial wall of the piston. Such an in-line latching system reduces torque in the spring assembly, which increases the efficiency of the spring assembly and the power of the air gun. When the air gun is powered by a gas spring assembly, the gas spring assembly is housed within the compression chamber of the rifle. The gas spring assembly includes a piston that defines a sealed interior pressure chamber disposed within the piston. The interior pressure chamber contains a gas, such as air or nitrogen. The piston is slideably disposed over a rod. Cocking the gun moves the piston over the rod, such that the rod displaces the gas withindistribution of the structures formed by MSA-MD simulations relative to the ALPHA1 crystal structure and the overlay of the best predicted structure with the ALPHA1 native structure.

Thirty items including parts of the Greenwood Cemetery in Brooklyn, the iconic PepsiCola sign in Queens, and the Bergdorf Goodman building on Fifth Avenue, in Manhattan will be considered for landmark status by the end of the year. On Tuesday, the city's Landmarks Preservation Commission deliberated on 95 items that been backlogged over a fifty year period. The commission chose to either prioritize items for designation by year's end; issue a no action designation, which means that items were removed from the calendar for now but can added back to it at a later time without prejudice; or remove the item from consideration completely on grounds that it now lacked merit. Breaking it down by borough, two items were considered for landmarking in the Bronx, six in Brooklyn, three inQueens, seven on Staten Island, and 12 in Manhattan. Only five items were completely removed from consideration, and four of them happened to be on Staten Island. Among the notable items that were postponed included Union Square Park, seven theaters along 42nd Street, and the Sailor's Snug Harbor Historic District on Staten Island. Commissioners argued that Union Square has been renovated several times since it first opened in 1839, and that it retains almost nothing of the original design. One of the commissioners however argued that it should be designated solely because of its cultural significance to the city. In the end commissioners decided to postpone the debate on the matter. When it came to the theaters, the commissioners argued that the organization, New 42nd Street, was already in charge of maintaining

out during the meeting, a beer company could purchase the sign from Pepsi and put up its own lettering. Where the Commission would step in would be the actual movement of the sign, so, continuing with the same beer example, if the beer company wanted to move the sign to install its own lettering it would have to come before the Landmarks Commission. But that is all a technical matter, the commissioners at the meeting ensured. They've had extensive discussions with Pepsi, and with the residents of the nearby apartments, and both wish to keep the sign, and as a result the Landmarks Commission has decided to make an exception with its consideration. In regards to Greenwood Cemetery, the Commission forego considering the entire 478-acre site, but instead chose threebuildings on the site: the chapel, the visitor's cottage, and the caretaker's building. The gothic main gate is already a city landmark. At first, the Commission had only chosen to prioritize 28 items, but by the end of the meeting that number increased to 30 with the addition of the Lakeman House [Warning:PDF] on Staten Island, and Excelsior Power Company Building in the Financial District in Manhattan. In the next step of this procedure, the Commission will now deliberate the landmark status for some of these 30 items on April 12 this year. A full list of the items that were deliberated on are available on the Commission's website.

Foreign Affairs Minister Stephen Smith says Australia is formally protesting to Japan about its whaling, which he says is whale slaughter, not scientific activity. He says he has already made representations to the Japanese Government. "The Australian Government will take all diplomatic measures to seek to persuade the Japanese Government to stop the whale slaughter," he said. The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society says this is nothing new as this is what has been done every year for the last 20 years. "We need enforcement and we need action on this atrocity," said Captain Paul Watson, "we don't need anymore pictures of dying whales. Greenpeace has been taking pictures for years and it has not stopped the killing of the whales." In November the Labor government of Kevin Rudd was elected partly ona promise to take a more aggressive position in opposing Japanese whaling. The government made their announcement today and according to Sea Shepherd it is the same old approach as before but this time dressed up in a different costume. Australia is going to send the Customs vessel Oceanic Viking to monitor the Japanese for 20 days. And just so the Japanese do not get overly offended, they are going to remove their guns. Additionally, they are going to take pictures of the whales being killed. "There is very little that is new here," said Captain Paul Watson from onboard the Sea Shepherd ship Steve Irwin off the coast of Antarctica. "The Australian government is going to take some pictures of the Japanese whalers killing whales but will do nothing

and that will be effected over the next few days," he said. "We will appoint a diplomatic envoy to seek to persuade the Japanese Government of the correctness and the rightness of our cause. We will up our activity in the International Whaling Commission, to seek to use our voice in the International Whaling Commission to bring an end to the so-called scientific whaling." Mr. Smith said the Government is also considering pursuing international legal action. Smith said the Attorney-General has commissioned Commonwealth Government and independent legal advice to see what options Australia can take against the whaling. He said the Government may take action before the International Court of Justice and the Tribunal for Law of the Sea, using the Whaling Convention and the Endangered Species Convention. Hesaid the Government expects to receive its legal advice early next year. The Opposition had previously warned the Government not to send the Navy. The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society is deeply disappointed by this announcement from the Australian government. Sea Shepherd does not understand how Australia can enforce fishing regulations against Toothfish poachers from Uruguay yet cannot intervene against the slaughter of the whales in these same water, waters that are clearly marked on the nautical charts as part of the Australian Economic Exclusion Zone. "This new approach clearly has the approval of the government, particularly the Japanese government with whom Australia most likely consulted for the proper and acceptable wording," said Captain Watson.

The Hooters sports bar at Aloha Tower Marketplace has closed. The property was turned over Monday to Hawaii Pacific University’s property management company, Hawaii Lifestyle Retail Properties LLC, after the establishment shut down last week. The university owns the marketplace and leases the land from the state. The closure of Hooters comes days after another Aloha Tower restaurant, Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant, abruptly closed over the weekend after 26 years. Josh Kern, chief experience officer of CraftWorks Holdings which operates Gordon Biersch restaurants across the country, said they made a decision to close the Honolulu restaurant because the business was losing money due to a lack of customers. A company representative for Hooters could not be reached at this time. Hawaii Pacific University spokesman Stephen Ward said the closures had to do with issuesfiction.

Salzman says that the US graduates far more workers in Science, Engineering, Technology, and Mathematics (STEM) than the tech industry needs and that foreign workers are causing Americans to get discouraged and join other professions.

This is particularly relevant for researchers seeking to analyse the information contained in SKBL (Biographical Dictionary of Swedish Women). Anna Charlotta Behle 1876-08-09 — 1966-10-02 Dancer, dance instructor, school founder Anna Behle was a Swedish pioneer in the world of dance and the founder of a school which came to influence the development of modern free dance. Anna Behle was born in Stockholm in 1876. Her parents never married and Anna Behle and her older brother August were adopted by a crofter family named Granbäck. Despite coming from a simple background, Anna Behle received a proper education. At an early age she began studying music and singing in Uppsala and in 1896 she graduated in organ performance in Stockholm. Shecontinued her musical studies and in 1898 she enrolled in Musikkonservatoriet’s piano and solo singing classes. She studied there for five terms. Anna Behle also benefited from the opportunity to study in Paris with the singing instructors Eugène Crosti and Emile Wartel. It was during her time in Paris that Anna changed her surname from Granbäck to Behle. In May 1906 Anna Behle saw the American dancer Isadora Duncan perform on a visiting tour at the Östermalm theatre in Stockholm. Anna Behle describes in her unpublished memoir “Att dansa Behle” how this experience changed her life and choice of profession, and made her determined to become a dancer. With her friend Louise Wikström (1857-1943), who was a certified gymnastics instructor at Gymnastiska Centralinstitutet, she travelled to Berlin that summer

to take lessons at Isadora Duncan’s school. The two friends then travelled on to Geneva and continued their studies with composer and music teacher Émile Jacques-Dalcroze (1865-1950), famous for having developed the so-called rhythmic gymnastics. His method of learning music through movement has been developed further and is, for example, taught at Kungl. Musikhögskolan (the Royal College of Music). Anna Behle returned to Jacques-Dalcroze’s school from 1910 to 1911 and received a teaching certificate. In the autumn of 1907 Anna Behle and Louise Wikström opened Anna Behle’s Plastikinstitut (Anna Behle’s Institute for Theatrical Movement) in an apartment on Brahegatan in Stockholm. They taught Duncan-inspired dance, gymnastics and Dalcroze-based exercises to children and adults. The courses were described as part of a new body-centred education for the modern human, ratherthan training for budding professional dancers. Despite this, several of the students would go on to become professional dancers. The Falk sisters, Gabo (1899–1975) and Jeanna (1901–1980), both came to have a significant impact on the development of modern dance instruction. Another of Anna Behle’s students was the Finn Maggie Gripenberg (1881-1976), who studied with Anna Behle in 1909 and contributed to the development of the free dance movement in Finland. Further to working at her own institute, Anna Behle also worked as a movement instructor at the opera school of Kungl. Teatern (the Royal Theatre) and as an instructor in rhythmic gymnastics and solfège, a particular training method in singing, at Musikkonservatoriet. In 1933 she was awarded the royal medal Litteris et Artibus. In the years from 1935

Jerome Sinclair is close to agreeing a loan switch to Sunderland. According to The Sunderland Echo, the striker is at the Academy of Light to put the finishing touches to a season-long loan switch to Wearside. The 21-year-old is thought to be way down the pecking order at Vicarage Road, and with the Hornets looking to add another striker to the ranks, it's thought that the youngster has been encouraged to seek regular first team football. (Image: Getty Images Europe) Andre Gray and Troy Deeney are the main candidates to lead the line for Watford for this term, while striker Stefano Okaka has been widely tipped for a summer exit. According to reputable Turkish publication Olay, the Hornets rejected a loan move from Busaspor for the out-of-favour striker, with the Premier League sidehoping to find a more long-term solution for the striker. It’s claimed Bursaspor officials are in constant contract with Watford regarding the Italian forward, and are pushing hard to agree a deal, although they are thought to prefer a loan move. The 28-year-old has had a turbulent time since arriving at Vicarage Road, with injuries very much halting his ability to enjoy a sustained place in the starting XI. A hamstring injury ruled him out for the first half of his debut season with the Hornets, before a consistent run in the team gave him confidence going into the new campaign; something which Okaka will be hoping to replicate this time round. The striker made 15 appearances for the Hoops last season, but after failing to establish himself in Javi Gracia's plans,

Arsenal remains sixth in the standings, 13 points from Tottenham in the fourth Champions League place with six games remaining. Southampton stayed in the relegation zone with 28 points from 32 matches. This game was the clearest indication yet that Arsene Wenger is now prioritizing the Europa League — with victory in the competition securing a route into the Champions League. The Arsenal manager made seven changes from Thursday's win over CSKA Moscow. Wilshere and Mesut Ozil started on the bench and Laurent Koscielny and Aaron Ramsey were rested completely. Southampton had the best of the early chances, Dusan Tadic drifting in behind before picking out James Ward-Prowse, who could not mark his 200th Southampton appearance with a goalas his effort was cleared off the line by Hector Bellerin. Mark Hughes saw his side take the lead as Tadic fed Cedric out wide, with the full-back's low cross to the near post left by both Petr Cech and Skhodran Mustafi. That allowed Long to nip in between the pair and sweep home his first goal since Jan. 2 in the 17th minute. Image Source : GETTY IMAGES Aubameyang scored for Arsenal after going 1-0 down.

Welbeck put the hosts ahead in the 38th as he collected Alex Iwobi's slide-rule pass before cutting inside and seeing his shot deflect in off the heel of Maya Yoshida. It was the England forward's first league goal since September. McCarthy had to be alert at the start of the second half to make smart saves from Aubameyang and Xhaka with Iwobi also drawing another stop as Arsenal looked to kill off the game. Southampton's chances were limited, but Elneny had to be on hand to clear off the line as Wesley Hoedt sent a header toward goal with Cech scrambling to tip Long's header behind soon after. Long was celebrating a second of the afternoon only to seethe goal rightly ruled out for offside as he steered Cedric's drive past Cech. Saints were starting to come back into the contest and Cech was on hand again to keep out a long-range Hoedt strike as Wenger reacted by introducing Wilshere and Alexandre Lacazette from the bench. Hughes, meanwhile, turned to Austin and was instantly rewarded as the striker turned home the equalizer in the 73rd with his first touch after strong work from Cedric.

She wanted to continue working from home, but management put the red light on that, not wanting to burden her subordinates who would have to follow up with her work, as well as because they were worried that communicating solely through e-mails, rather than in person, would lead to miscommunication.

Andher lack of conviction which led to her volunteering his body and mind to the prison of his workplace, instead of insisting she take that duty, a duty which she wouldn’t have minded much anyways. If anything, she would have enjoyed it. And that was just it, she was past the point where she could claim it was only out of necessity which made her pick him out to stay. No, it was only cruelty on her part. That was the only explanation. And that realization was dragging her, kicking and screaming, from the comfort of rest now because of it.

She turns around to pick it up, bending over to do so. When she picks up the mangled piece of soap, which now looked like modern art, she made sure to wash under her breasts and between her butt cheeks, the way she’s had to do for the last twenty years.

She slammed on the breaks, stopping within a few inches of hitting him. And when he passed, throwing out a “watch where you’re going lady,” your mom looked around and noticed she was only a block away from her office building. Was this how it started?

She wasn’t thinking about what they were. She wasn’t thinking much at all. But as she got up closer, the thought crossed her mind. Is he crying? Concern and anger and confusion followed her up the stairs as the light of the second floor exploded into view, along with the unobstructed sound of the sniffling.

While she was gone, you took the time to go to her still-open gmail account and delete your message to her, effectively burying the only smoking gun. When she got back, she had a different e-mail, this one actually from the head office saying that one of her employees checked in that morning, and checked out a few hours later, and never came back. As she read the message, she began coughing. The next morning, she was the one who showed up to work. Diligently so, with a smile on her face. The empty office gave her the strange feeling of

You watched her juicy, wet cheeks from your doorway, trying to hold back your coughing so you could admire her without being noticed. When she picked up the phone, she said desperately, and with a flu-like husk in her voice, “Hello?” After a few seconds of blank silence, she said, ominously, “yes… this is her. I’m his daughter” And her next response, as if falling out of nowhere, was to wail uncontrollably.

Rupert Murdoch's summer of good fortune Rupert Murdoch is having a great summer. Three times this summer, government regulators have had to make major decisions regarding media ownership. Three times, the decision has gone the way that Murdoch and his company, 21st Century Fox, would have wanted. Murdoch is known to speak regularly with President Donald Trump. And some of the biggest stars of Murdoch's network, Fox News, have arguably been the president's most important supporters over the past year and a half. There's no evidence that either of those things led to the regulators' decisions, or that the decisions coming together this way are anything but a coincidence, but Murdoch's string of good fortune has set some tongues wagging. "Everything seems to be falling Rupert's way," said BTIG media and technologyPai announced on Monday that he had "serious concerns" about the transaction. Though Pai had previously been accused of loosening station ownership rules to help Sinclair, Pai this week criticized the company for striking deals to sell stations to buyers who have close ties with Sinclair as part of an effort to stay within ownership cap rules. Sinclair has been viewed as a possible rival to Fox News as the former builds up a huge national footprint and snaps up talent like former Trump advisor Boris Epshteyn and former CBS correspondent Sharyl Attkisson. According to Politico, Sinclair has even approached current and former Fox talent like Jeanine Pirro and Eric Bolling. Last month, BuzzFeed reported Sinclair was preparing to launch a free streaming app called STIRR, a 24/7 TV

the next steps.” State legislators passed the law during a special one-day session in March. Members of the General Assembly called themselves into session to pass the law, which was introduced after 10 a.m. and signed into law around 9 p.m. the same evening. It was passed to preempt a local ordinance passed in Charlotte that would have required business to provide transgender bathroom accommodations. The law also banned local LGBT non-discrimination and living-wage ordinances. The backlash to the law has been fierce. Musicians have threatened boycotts, businesses have canceled job-expansion plans, conferences have been canceled, and the NBA says it will move the 2017 All-Star Game, planned for Charlotte, if the law remains unchanged. Democrats have filed a bill to repeal the law, but they are badly outnumbered inFrench President Emmanuel Macron released an international agreement on cybersecurity principles Monday as part of the Paris Peace Forum. The original signatories included more than 50 nations, 130 private sector groups and 90 charitable groups and universities, but not the United States, Russia or China. The big picture: The Paris Call for Trust and Security in Cyberspace is another step in the disjointed effort to create international norms and laws for cybersecurity and warfare. In most international matters of regulating the internet, there tends to be a wide split between the liberal Western order and authoritarian nations like Russia and China. Details: The agreement does not command any specific legislation. The principles include agreements to promote human rights on the internet, thwart election hacking, cease the theft of intellectual property via

hacking and stop "malicious cyber activities in peacetime, notably the ones threatening or resulting in significant, indiscriminate or systemic harm to individuals." China, Russia and North Korea have each been accused of violating some or all of these in the past. Private sector groups are tasked with having a unique responsibility in security. It includes an endorsement of certain security measures, including basic security practices and responsible disclosure campaigns, allowing security researchers to alert organizations and governments to security vulnerabilities in their systems. Key absentees from the agreement included the U.S. and Australia — two of the five nations in the powerful Five Eyes digital surveillance alliance. The others — the U.K., Canada and New Zealand — all signed. Many restrictive regimes also did not sign on, including China, North Korea, Russiaand Iran, who all have active cyber warfare programs, and Saudi Arabia, which does not. Israel, which has a large domestic cybersecurity industry, also did not sign on. But the signatories include two notable tech sector security agreements: the Microsoft-led Cybersecurity Tech Accord and the Siemens-led Charter of Trust. Major tech firms like Microsoft, Facebook, Google, IBM and HP are all signed on — either through those private sector pacts or to the agreement outright. Kaspersky Lab, which has been accused of assisting in Russia's hacking efforts, signed as well. Chinese firms accused of benefitting from the theft of intellectual property or assisting in espionage, including ZTE and Huawei, did not. Correction: As originally posted, this article stated incorrectly that the United Kingdom did not sign the agreement. It has.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump, who is running for the Republican nomination for president, seems intent on making the lives of all immigrants miserable, and his messages of hatred and fear have only increased his popularity. His anti-immigrant rhetoric is repeated constantly on social media. For the first time since the “Operation Wetback” program of 1954, more Mexicans are leaving the U.S. than entering. According to research from Pew, from 2009 to 2014, 1 million Mexicans returned to Mexico, while 870,000 came to the U.S. This means that there are about 130,000 fewer MexicansSwitzerland will release employment data from May.

Al Jazeera's Imtiaz Tyab, reporting from the Old City, said there was a "huge security presence" around Al-Aqsa before noon prayers on Friday. Police were then deployed to flashpoint neighbourhoods where Palestinian stone-throwers and security forces clashed later in the day. For weeks, there have been near-daily scuffles in East Jerusalem, triggered by fears that Israel was preparing to change the rules about who can worship at the Al-Aqsa compound, which is holy to Jews as well as Muslims.

because of their age performed prayers on a street. They were faced by a row of riot police in black uniforms and helmets, as well as several officers on horseback. About 15,000 people gathered to pray at Al-Aqsa and the event ended peacefully, but clashes erupted in other parts of East Jerusalem and in the occupied West Bank. At the Qalandia checkpoint separating Ramallah from Jerusalem, troops fired rubber bullets as several hundred protesters marched, some throwing rocks and petrol bombs, according to the Reuters news agency. In East Jerusalem, police fired tear gas to disperse protesters hurling firecrackers and burning tyres that sent up huge clouds of black smoke in Shoafat refugee camp. Far-right pressure Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke by phone with Jordan's King Abdullah II on Thursday to reassurehim that the government would not yield to increasing demands by Jewish hardliners to allow Jews to pray at Al-Aqsa. Jordan acts as the custodian of the Al-Aqsa mosque compound and other Muslim holy sites in annexed East Jerusalem. The Al-Aqsa complex is known to Muslims as Haram as-Sharif, or Noble Sanctuary, and to Jews as the Temple Mount. It is the third holiest site in Islam and houses the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the gold-topped Dome of the Rock. Jews also revere it as the location of their biblical temples and consider it the most sacred location in their faith. In recent months, several senior members of Netanyahu's coalition, including Housing Minister Uri Ariel and Deputy Parliament Speaker Moshe Feiglin, have called for a greater Jewish presence and the right to pray

on the mount. At the same time, the number of Jewish visitors to the site has increased over the years, raising fears among Muslims that this is part of a gradual Jewish takeover. Tension escalated further on Wednesday after Israeli security forces stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque. The Islamic Waqf, the Jordanian religious trust that administers Al-Aqsa, said two people were injured inside, and that Israeli security forces used foam-tipped bullets, stun grenades and tear gas against protesters. Israeli security forces also damaged the mosque's doors, burnt carpets and broke glass during the confrontation, the Waqf said. Later on Wednesday, a Palestinian man rammed his car into two groups of pedestrians. A second Israeli died on Friday from injuries sustained in the attack, after a border police officer was killed at the scene. It wasthe second such deadly attack by a Palestinian driving a car in two weeks. In both cases, the perpetrators were shot dead by police. The EU's new foreign affairs chief said the upsurge in violence made it all the more critical that Israel and the Palestinians resume talks. "The risk of growing tensions here in Jerusalem ... is that, if we do not move forward on the political track, we will go back, and back again to violence," Federica Mogherini told reporters on Friday after meeting Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman during her first official visit to the region. The last talks between Israel and the Palestinians broke down in April after months of largely fruitless negotiations.

including the following: blast mines, which burst on contact, are usually small and may injure only the unfortunate person who steps directly onto the mine; bounding mines rocket to a height of several feet above ground before blowing up, thus, frequently injure nearby bystanders as well; directional fragmenting mines can propel shrapnel as far as 200 meters. Information concerning the extent of the worldwide land mine problem is found in the following publications, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference: "Land Mines: Horrors Begging For Solutions," Chemical & Engineering News, Mar. 10, 1997, pp. 14-22; "Minefields, Literal and Metaphoric," U.S. News & World Report, pp. 39-41, Feb. 3, 1997. Land mines first came into widespread use during World War II. These early designs used relatively large amountsof explosive (on the order of 300 grams or more) and were designed to kill. Later, in the 1960's, land mines designed to maim and disfigure rather than to kill became available. These new designs typically use much smaller amounts of explosives (on the order of 100 grams) that are sufficient to kill only small children, but can severely maim an older child or an adult. Land mines have become the antipersonnel weapon of choice for many rebel forces, particularly in places such as Afghanistan, Cambodia, Mozambique, and Zaire. Land mines are deployed whenever and wherever there is a possibility of inflicting injury to humans, combatants and noncombatants alike: in roads, in harbors, at airports, railroad stations, and other places where large numbers of people congregate, and even on

BANKING ANALYTICS Ranking of the Azerbaijani banking sector (ranking includes the information component of the banking sector, the main events of the world economy, the analytical review of the main indices of the banks which are being ranked) Turkish president says trade with China has great potential Turkish President Abdullah Gul said here Friday that Turkish-Chinese economic and trade cooperation had great potential that he hoped could be developed, Xinhua reported. Attending the China-Turkey Business Forum, Gul, who came to China for a state visit, expressed dissatisfaction about trade relations with China. "China's investment in Turkey is only 60 million U.S. dollars, equivalent to only the annual income of a medium-sized enterprise. Turkish investment in China is a bit more but still only 150 million U.S. dollars. "China has not really discovered Turkey, andTurkey has not really understood China. There's a lack of understanding between the two countries, which means that economic and trade cooperation has great potential." Gul said he believed that the two countries could enhance cooperation in finance, infrastructure, energy, transportation and agriculture. He said Turkey would invest 120 billion U.S. dollars in energy projects in the next 10 years, such as thermal power, hydropower, oil exploration, oil refining and transportation, and he hoped that Chinese enterprises could invest in these projects. In the transport sector, he hoped that weekly flights between the two countries could be increased to meet rising demand and serve visitors to the Shanghai World Expo in 2010. On the international financial crisis, Gul said that as Group of 20 members, Turkey and China had participated in actions

to address the financial crisis. "Now it is time for the entrepreneurs of the two countries to decide on increased investment." According to Chinese Customs statistics, bilateral trade was 12.57 billion U.S. dollars last year, an increase of 7 percent year-on-year. China's exports to Turkey reached 10.59 billion U.S. dollars, while imports were only 1.98 billion U.S. dollars. These figures represented increases of 1 percent and 53 percent, respectively. On the trade imbalance, Bai Lichen, vice chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, said that China attached great importance to solving the issue.
