Scene 2 – Preparations and segue to mythical or revelation scenes (north wall, on your left as you enter):
A seated woman (with back facing us) uncovers a tray with her left hand while receiving liquid into a dish with her right hand, perhaps cleaning her hands (Burkert) or making an offering to the god (Nilsson). To her right is a mythical scene depicting a silenos playing the lyre, a boy playing a flute, and a girl suckling a goat. Further to the right, a partially clothed woman runs in fear (perhaps running from the flogging sceneon the opposite side).

Scene 3 – Mythical scene with Silenos, Dionysos, and threatening winged female figure (east wall, straight ahead as you enter):
This may be a depiction of the revelation of the god Dionysos to the initiate. A drunken and scantily clad god Dionysos, accompanied by Ariadne, is seated in the centre as a Silenos shows something (or offers a drink) to a boy (satyr?) while another boy holds up a theatrical mask. To the right, a partially clothed woman lifts a veil to reveal the contents of a basket, likely the phallic symbol associated with initiation into the mysteries of DIonysos. A threatening mythical figure appears on the far right (see next photo).

(CNN) Director Steven Spielberg says casting a female to play the iconic role of Indiana Jones could actually become a reality.
"We'd have to change the name from Jones to Joan," Spielberg told The Sun in a recent interview. "And there would be nothing wrong with that."
Spielberg has had no problem putting women front and center in his movies. Last year, he directed the "The Post," which featured a strong female protagonist, Katharine Graham, the former publisher of the Washington Post. It appears that the women in his personal life have been an influence on him.
"I have been very lucky to be influenced by women, several of whom I have just loved madly — my mom and my wife," he told The Sun. Spielberg is married to actress KatePhoto Flash: First Look at John Ellingson and Henry Martin in NWCT's SEUSSICAL

Kids who participate in the group's leadership and community organizing program get a stipend of up to $400 a month. But those stipends, as well as money others get for taking GED classes, are getting cut by 10 percent because the recession has stretched resources thin. Staff salaries

At the hearing on the motion to suppress, Sergeant Michael Sitterud, the lead investigating officer, testified that on February 14, 1982, Golden's body was found in the trunk of his car by two relatives. His wife had reported him missing after he failed to return home from work on February 11. According to the missing person report, Golden worked at the toll booth in a garage on Clay Street in Oakland, giving out tickets and collecting money. Apparently the last person to have seen him was defendant, who worked as a janitor at the garage. Defendant said Golden was still there when he left the garage about 8 p.m. on February 11.
On the morning of February 15, Sitterud met with Carl Ivey, the manager of the garage anda retired police officer. Sitterud spoke with Ivey at the police station in one of the interview rooms. Ivey told him that Golden's duties included depositing the day's receipts at the bank and that the receipts from February 11 were missing. The amount would have been between $300 and $700. Ivey also told Sitterud that defendant worked as a janitor at both the Clay Street garage and a garage on Franklin Street and that he was not scheduled to be back at work until February 16. According to Ivey, Golden had not trusted defendant. Defendant made $5.75 an hour and had recently bought a used car.
Later that day Ivey called to report that he had found some of Golden's property, an empty money box, a bank deposit bag | {

(NNPA) - Michael Vick, the suspended Atlanta Falcons quarterback who served 21 months in a Leavenworth, Kan. prison on dog-fighting convictions, was released May 20. Evading media, Vick and his fiancée, Kijafa Frink, immediately traveled to his Hampton, Va. home. There he will remain under court-ordered supervision, serving the last two months of his 23-month sentence. According to the Associated Press, Vick, Frink, Woodard and Vick's security team, traveled 19 hours by car to Virginia. There, he will live with his girlfriend and their children. Speculations are rampant over whether Vick will be allowed reinstatement into the NFL. That decision is likely the next move as he completes his sentence. "It's a happy day for him to be starting this process," said his attorney, Larry Woodward, in astatement to the media. "He looks forward to meeting the challenges he has to meet." According to reports, Felicia Ponce, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Bureau of Prisons, said 28-year-old Vick must adhere to strict rules under home incarceration, including a mandatory curfew and other rules curtailed specifically for Vick. His probation officer can pay unexpected visits. He is on probation for three years. He must also maintain employment. For now, he will work for $10 an hour at a construction firm, W.M. Jordan Co. He will also perform volunteer community service, according to his attorney. The new pay is a far cry from the 10-year $130 million contract that he'd received from Falcons' owner Arthur Blank.

While I was initially disappointed by the extent of this departure, I found myself more appreciative of its deviation from the norm. While the game does offer a main plotline involving Kevin's backstory, that portion is only about half of the narrative told throughout the game. The remaining half comes in the form of "Doorways".

Jensson has designed the temple with a focus on the close relationship between the earth, sky, and sun. The plan for the building, which has a capacity of up to 250 people, includes a rock wall from the hillside, a south-facing glass wall, and a domed ceiling with a skylight.

On May 1 2015, Sheryl Sandberg – business leader, philanthropist and COO at Facebook – found her husband dead on the floor of the gym in their holiday villa in Mexico. An autopsy revealed that Dave Goldberg, CEO of SurveyMonkey, had died suddenly of a cardiac arrhythmia, caused by coronary artery disease.
His death was a complete shock, and one that left Sheryl and Dave’s two children without a father. In the days and weeks that followed, Sandberg found herself wondering how she could go on and find the strength for herself and her children.

Approaches to reduce noise from ships operating in important killer whale habitats.
Shipping is key to global trade, but is also a dominant source of anthropogenic noise in the ocean. Chronic noise from ships can affect acoustic quality of important whale habitats. Noise from ships has been identified as one of three main stressors-in addition to contaminants, and lack of Chinook salmon prey-in the recovery of the endangered southern resident killer whale (SRKW) population. Managers recognize existing noise levels as a threat to the acoustical integrity of SRKW critical habitat. There is an urgent need to identify practical ways to reduce ocean noise given projected increases in shipping in the SRKW's summertime critical habitat in the Salish Sea.

(CNN) Former Vice President Joe Biden brought olive branches to Sunday night's debate. But Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders preferred what might be one final fight.
The 11th Democratic presidential debate took place as the nation confronts the coronavirus pandemic , with the candidates' podiums set six feet apart serving as a reminder of the global public health emergency.
It was the first one-on-one showdown between the primary's two finalists. The delegate math suggests their race is approaching its end, with the former vice president building a clear lead that's expected to grow Tuesday with primaries in Arizona Illinois and Ohio . But Sunday night showed that how the end occurs remains an open question.
Sanders repeatedly laid into Biden's record on Social Security and bankruptcy legislation, trade and more. But Biden-- who appeared to accept midway through that the two wouldn't find much common ground -- also decided to directly engage with Sanders on his record as well.
He also had an ace in the hole. Biden said for the first time he would pick a female vice president -- a significant development that Sanders didn't quite match.
Here are five takeaways from Sunday night's debate:

Verdict
Despite facing only three rivals, ex-pointer Carli King faces a stiff task on his debut under Rules as he needs further. Colour Squadron was a shade disappointing last season considering he was a useful novice hurdler. But he is still qualified to run in novice chases this season, which is a plus. RAYA STAR kept very good company over timber last season, finishing second in the Grade 1 Christmas Hurdle on Boxing Day. He should jump fences and probably has a bit more class than Tanerko Emery, who prefers very soft or heavy ground. The latter improved throughout last season over hurdles, however, and shouldn't be ignored. | {

In this light, it comes as no surprise that the EU allocates relatively scarce resources on the region's democratisation (Voloshin, 2014: 45), the mission of the EU's Special Representative for Central Asia is, as Kavalski and Cho (2018: 60) put it, "understaffed and underfunded" and instead, the bloc mostly opts to deal with the region "together [through] coordination among international structures" (quoted in ibid).84 Also, with respect to various EU documents on Central Asia, such as the 2007 Strategy and Indicative Programme, the 1999 PCA, the new EPCA etc, researchers widely point out that they mostly contain general phrases, being vague on specific actions concerning democracy and human rights and failingwhich refrain from criticising Kazakhstan, trying to make Brussels do this "dirty job" instead (Bossuyt and Kubicek 2015: 184).

A second grader was removed from school by his parents after the principal objected to him showing up in black face to do a presentation on the late civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr.
Sean King had a vision for his project, part of "Wax Museum Day" at Meridian Ranch Elementary School in Peyton, Colo., said his mother Michelle King-Roca.
"He said, 'Mom, I want to wear a black suit because that's what he wore, a black tie, a white shirt and also I want to do my face black and wear a mustache," she told ABC affiliate KRDO.
As parents and their pint-sized historical figures waited to file into a classroom on Wednesday, the principal asked King-Roca to remove her son's make-up, she said.
Instead, she ignoredthe request and waited for Sean's presentation.
King-Roca said she was then called to the principal's office where she, her husband and Sean had a discussion with three school officials. Unsatisfied with the situation, King-Roca pulled her son out of school for the day.
School officials could not be reached for comment, but blackface has historically been used by minstrel shows and burlesque for offensive caricatures of black people.
School officials told KRDO the principal was just doing her job.
"When other students are offended by something, it is the principal's role that the educational environment is safe for all students," said school spokesperson Stephanie Meredith. | {

The Justice Department told CNN that Sessions, who met with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak at least two times last year, didn't note those interactions the application form, which required him to list "any contact" he or his family had with a "foreign government" or its "representatives" over the past seven years.
Responding to the news during an interview on CNN's " Erin Burnett Outfront ," Rep. Will Hurd, of Texas, said oversharing would be "a good strategy" and that because of the "intense scrutiny he knew he was going to go under, oversharing is probably better than undersharing."

(CNN)–The questions reverberated from the Vatican to every corner of the Catholic world and left a billion members scratching their heads over something not seen since 1415 - why is the pope resigning now?
Pope Benedict XVI, 85, said Monday that it was because of his age.
"I have come to the certainty that my strengths, due to an advanced age, are no longer suited to an adequate exercise of the Petrine ministry," he read in Latin to a group of cardinals gathered to examine causes for canonization.
The pressures may well have been too much for him to bear. As pope he was the bishop of Rome, the head of a tiny country, and spiritual shepherd to a billion people.
'[I]n today's world, subject to so many rapid changes and shakenhospitalizations or public falls, and the pope likely "decided rather that he would pull the plug now instead of waiting for disaster.”

(CNN) Matthew Whitaker, the acting US attorney general, was on the advisory board of a Florida company that was shut down by the Federal Trade Commission and served with a $26 million judgment earlier this year for what court documents called "a scam that has bilked thousands of consumers out of millions of dollars."
The company, World Patent Marketing, promised to help inventors get patents.
Whitaker was named as an advisory board member in October 2014 and Federal Election Commission filings showed the company's owner donated $2,600 to Whitaker's campaign when he was running for the US Senate. A payment record also shows Whitaker was paid at least $9,375 by the company from October 2014 to February 2016, and was due to be paid an additional $7,500 in 2016 andto prison if they reveal what they learned.

The grandfather had become very old. His legs would
not carry him, his eyes could not see, his ears could not hear, and he was
toothless.
When he ate, bits of food sometimes dropped out of his
mouth. His son and his son’s wife no longer allowed him to eat with them at the
table. He had to eat his meals in the corner near the stove.
One day they gave him his food in a bowl. He tried to
move the bowl closer; it fell to the floor and broke. His daughter-in-law
scolded him. She told him that he spoiled everything in the house and broke
their dishes, and she said that from now on he would get his food in a wooden
dish. The old man sighed and said nothing.

(CNN) House Democrats are pushing forward on their investigations into President Donald Trump's finances — an area they feel special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation did not fully probe — adding additional senior-level investigative staffers and preparing to go to court to enforce their subpoenas.
The House Intelligence Committee has hired Patrick Fallon, a 25-year FBI veteran who was chief of the FBI's financial crimes section, according to three sources familiar with the matter, adding to their arsenal of staffers with experience prosecuting financial crimes and cases against Russian organized crime. Fallon started this week, according to a committee source.

"I do think that we intend to respond," Neal said.
Schiff has come under fire from congressional Republicans after Mueller's investigation ended, who have accused him of claiming to have evidence of collusion between Trump's team and Russia when Mueller did not establish any criminal conspiracy.
But Schiff has argued that the contacts that were unearthed between Russians and Trump's team are alarming, even if they aren't criminal, and he's also pointed to Trump's finances as an area | {

By the year 2000, when Phil was aged 50, he realised that the trainee priest George Pell had risen to become an Archbishop. Phil was shocked — "he did not think it right that someone who had behaved indecently towards children should lead the church," the church document says. So, beginning in 2000, Phil tried to alert the church authorities. Phil emphasised that he was not seeking compensation. And he was not reporting this matter to the police (therefore there is no police investigation into Phil'scomplaint). Rather, Phil was concerned about the safety of children in the church's care; and he merely wanted the church authorities to be aware of the offences that were allegedly committed upon him (Phil) at the altar boys' camp. In 2002, the hierarchy paid a senior barrister, Mr Alec Southwell QC, to examine (and report on) Phil's complaint. Archbishop George Pell (who was indeed at the altar boys' camp) denied committing any abuse. Mr Southwell's report concluded that the former altar boy "appeared to speak honestly from an actual recollection". Mr Southwell said he was not persuaded that the former altar boy was a liar as alleged by Pell.

Taking the plaintiffs' contentions as a whole, it is clear that they all felt harassed and frustrated in their inability to be free from AAMCO's calls. But the record does not support their claims of actionable coercion. Many possible reasons exist other than AAMCO's coercion that could explain why the plaintiffs were willing to purchase AAMCO kits that part-by-part were more expensive than parts purchased on the open market. Many of the plaintiffs testified to the bookkeeping convenience of ordering AAMCO kits. AAMCO's assembly sets also had the unique advantage of permitting uniformity and control in rebuilding, as well as time-saving (testimony of AAMCO dealers Bruce McDonald and Kenneth Thompson). With respect to purchasing practices and inventory, the use of assembly sets including multi-year coverage assembly setsin the Detroit market. AAMCO's contention is that there was no justifiable grievance or group of grievances which allowed plaintiffs to terminate their Franchise Agreements. According to AAMCO, AAMCO was so taken with surprise by the sudden mass exodus of its Detroit franchisees that as late as November 20, 1973, no one at AAMCO had any hint or suspicion that the situation in Detroit was even volatile.
The plaintiffs have painted a totally different picture. It is a picture fraught with AAMCO's alleged arrogance and AAMCO's continual refusal to live up to its promise of good faith in helping its licensees achieve success. The contention running through this allegation is that AAMCO breached its Franchise Agreements every year of its existence. The franchisees insist that they constantly tried to | {

(the unnamed conspirator common to both indictments) in one extended conspiracy to evade federal fuel excise taxes and that after pleading guilty to that conspiracy in California, the United States may not divide the one conspiracy into two and prosecute him again in Indiana. Second, he argues the sentence he received for his California guilty verdict was longer than the sentences received by the other California conspirators because his sentence was based on tax losses that included the losses from the Indiana conspiracy as well as the California conspiracy.

Sertich's primary argument is that the federal prosecutors in Indiana and California carefully divided a single conspiracy into two. To support this position, Sertich argues that he and Allen were primary players in both schemes. Irrespective ofthe methods employed, the conspiracy's objective was to make money through fuel excise tax fraud and its purpose was to pay off a pre-existing business debt Allen owed to Sertich. Sertich argues that rather than two discrete criminal enterprises, the Indiana conspiracy continued straight through and into the California conspiracy. Even when he and Allen were not actually running a fuel excise tax evasion scheme (in Indiana) they were plotting their next (in California) through a series of meetings that covered what might otherwise appear to be the two-year hiatus between November 1987 when the Indiana operation shut down and late 1990 when he joined Allen's new California company.

North discusses the impending conference with Fiers, Assistant Secretary of State Elliott Abrams, and the US Ambassador to Costa Rica, Lewis Tambs. They mull over informing Arias that he will never be allowed in the White House, and will never get any of the $80 million promised to Costa Rica by the US Agency for International Development (USAID) if the airstrip is revealed.

The program known as Little Free Libraries will install weatherproof boxes that hold about a dozen books at several locations in the city. The books are usually marked with instructions for people to take a book or leave a book.
The Herald-Times reports the project began in Wisconsin a year ago. There are now up to 6,000 Little Free Libraries around the world in places including Afghanistan and Uganda.
The Bloomington project will begin with three boxes, but more are expected to be added as the project catches on.

Also, the Book of Judges makes the Torah's stance on anarchy pretty clear. Written by Samuel, it illustrates what happened when there was no king in ancient Israel and everyone did as they pleased. Chapters 18 and 19 show instances of infighting for the sake of blatant and unchecked idol worship, and the brutal rape and murder of a woman that leads to a civil war and the near genocide of the Tribe of Benjamin. Samuel's repeated and pointed remarks throughout these tragic events, always about the lack of a king (17:6, 18:1, 19:1, 21:25) speak to his views on the importance of a monarch. It feels appropriate that he was the last of the sporadic Judges who anointed our first formal kings.

(CNN) Parkland, Florida, parents and students filed suit Wednesday against Broward County, the sheriff, his deputies and the school superintendent in connection with the February 14 massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.
Two students and 13 minor students' mothers are plaintiffs in the case, which seeks compensatory and punitive damages, to be determined by a jury.
Yet while attorney Solomon Radner focused on the shooting during a Wednesday news conference, four of the five counts in the lawsuit deal with an incident in which embattled ex-school resource officer Scot Peterson questioned, searched and seized money from a student he suspected of selling drugs.
The seizure occurred on Valentine's Day, hours before the shooting, but that and Peterson's involvement are the only apparent connections to the shooting.
The rest of the suitalleges Broward County Public Schools Superintendent Robert Runcie and Broward Sheriff Scott Israel failed to protect students and claims Peterson and five other deputies' inaction or poor training led to more students being traumatized, injured or killed.
Three of the deputies are identified as John Does one, two and three, and Radner said they were armed, trained and on campus when the shooting began.
"The law enforcement choked that day," Radner said during a news conference. "They caused people to die, and they will have to face the music."
CNN's phone call and emails seeking comment from the county attorney's office were not immediately returned.

(CNN) Everybody knows stepping into a parking lot creates the possibility of getting run over by a car -- but by a deer?
Ken Worthy had just finished lunch at the McDonald's in Locust, North Carolina, last Wednesday when -- out of the blue -- a deer galloped across the parking lot and bowled him over, according to CNN affiliate WSOC
"It was absolutely nuts," Worthy told WSOC. "It was just a bit of brown, and then I saw his face, I was down on the ground -- that quick."
In surveillance video Worthy posted, Ken leads the way to their car in the parking lot with his wife, Deanne, following closely behind.
Ken looks to his right, sees the deer and looks directly at it. Showing no sign of stopping, theIn Shift, House Selects Priest as Chaplain
WASHINGTON — Showing just how difficult it is for Congress to accomplish anything in an election year, it took spiritual guidance Thursday to settle a four-month partisan dispute over a seemingly routine matter: the selection of a House chaplain.
House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.) told members of the House that the Presbyterian minister he favored to become House chaplain has dropped from consideration and that he has appointed a Catholic priest from Chicago to the post. He said that he acted "following a long period of prayerful consideration."
But Hastert delivered an uncharacteristic scolding to the packed chamber for the "cynical" and "destructive" political maneuvering that has brought "shame" on the House, and he angrily denied any anti-Catholic bias in initially passing over | {

(CNN) Republican campaign strategist turned independent MSNBC commentator Steve Schmidt believes it is Democrats who could help save the Republican Party.
"One of the institutions that the Democratic Party may wind up saving in its defeat of Trumpism is the Republican Party itself," Schmidt told David Axelrod on the "Axe Files," a podcast from The University of Chicago Institute of Politics and CNN.
Schmidt said he finds himself "optimistic about our future," looks forward to the 2020 election and expects to be part of a campaign in some capacity, "more likely as a volunteer than a principal architect, but being involved in an effort to renew the promise, the idea and the ideals of the country."
The "outspoken Never Trumper," as Axelrod put it, has made a major shift in hiswife of the Irrigation Minister, to collect evidence that her husband is having an extra-marital affair for a fee of Twenty thousand rupees. Satyaveer accepts this offer little knowing that he will soon be thrust into a web of lies and deceit, which will not only get him in the bad books of Rathore, assaulted by his goons, but also implicate him in the murder of two lovers, Sameera, and Dr. Anil Poddar, compounded all the more by the sudden death of Manorama and the disappearance of an orphan named Deepti.www.shemaroo.com | {

(whose team runs Peugeot's World RX programme). Davy Jeanney should be confirmed very soon too, and the boss doesn't seem inclined to enter his youngest son Kevin, despite his title in RX Lites.
So who will drive the third 208 Supercar? Besides the option of occasional guest drivers – which must be sought after – one name is obvious: Loeb.
Unlike Solberg, the Frenchman willingly left the WRC at the end of 2012 – at least did he give up on his full-time commitment as he wished to take part in only a few events occasionally, including this year if Citroen hadn't gone on a gap year and if he had remained an ambassador for his lifelong team.
Everyone is aware that Loeb has been an official Peugeot driver since thelatest Dakar back in January. However, could he settle for a few rally-raid outings which are not yet defined and should be defined "in the frame of our development programme", as Peugeot Sport told Motorsport.com after the Dakar, if other opportunities arise?
On the other hand, one struggles to imagine the most successful French driver ever embarking on a long adventure with Toyota – after all, a few years ago, he didn't fancy starting from scratch again with Volkswagen.
An answer in March
That's why Loeb's involvement in World RX makes sense – not just for a few outings which wouldn't be enough for him to improve and have a regular shot at victory. Furthermore, Red Bull and Total being Peugeot's partners on both programmes should facilitate things.

But all his spraying couldn't spare him from a pernicious tick that found in the one spot he couldn't swat — his eyeball.
"You can't spray your eyes," he told CNN affiliate WYMT
The teeny parasite fought its way into Prater's eye some time during a July tree-cutting job in Johnson County, he explained.
Prater didn't originally think anything of the irritation before the diagnosis. It must've been the sawdust that got caught in his eyeball, he thought, and he could easily flush it out later.

(CNN) Russian oligarch Yevegeny Prigozhin, who bankrolled the troll farm that meddled in the 2016 presidential election, took a victory lap on Tuesday after the US Justice Department dropped charges against two of his companies, weeks before a scheduled trial.
Prigozhin, often dubbed "Putin's chef" for his close ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin, blasted the federal prosecutors who brought the case and denied once again that he was involved in the Kremlin's sweeping interference in 2016. In a statement released Tuesday, Prigozhin slammed former special counsel Robert Mueller and claimed he and his company were "illegally persecuted."
President Donald Trump also trumpeted the development, even though it was a setback for his own Justice Department. While Trump dealt with the coronavirus pandemic, he found time Monday evening to re-tweetwill accept the lie for the truth.

But those fears may have been premature. International arrivals and travel-related spending are up in 2017 compared with the same period in 2016.
There might even be a "Trump bump," says Roger Dow, CEO of the U.S. Travel Association, a nonprofit representing the travel industry.

(Reuters) - Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives began an inquiry on Sept. 24 to determine whether President Donald Trump abused his office for political gain when he asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy in a July phone call to investigate political rival Joe Biden, a former vice president.

The contents of the call were revealed in a whistleblower complaint by an intelligence official. Testimony by Trump administration officials past and present, a rough transcript of the phone call released by the White House, texts between U.S. diplomats and other documents have largely confirmed the whistleblower's account. (Graphic on inquiry: here)
Trump denies wrongdoing and says he is thewas exerted on Zelenskiy to make a public statement committing himself to investigating Burisma before he would be allowed to meet with Trump at the White House, part of the “quid pro quo” - Latin for “a favor for a favor” - that is at the heart of the impeachment inquiry.
- Sondland, a hotelier and Trump donor, testified to congressional investigators that Trump largely delegated Ukraine policy to Giuliani. He said Trump told him and other officials at a White House meeting to coordinate with Giuliani, who at the time was seeking to dig up dirt on Biden, a leading candidate for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination. Sondland expressed disquiet in his testimony about allowing a private citizen to have such an influential role in U.S. foreign policy.

(CNN) US-backed forces in Raqqa said Tuesday that major military operations against ISIS had ended as they worked to clear out the remnants of sleeper cells and mines in the ruins of the Syrian city.
American officials have not yet formally announced that the fight is won, but the developments mark a significant moment for the war on ISIS -- and perhaps, in real tangible, conventional military terms, its end.
Why it's important
Mosul in Iraq may have been the biggest population center the militants ever held, but Raqqa was the seat of ISIS' power. It was the major city they took first in Syria, and where the terror group declared its capital.
When the jihadists swung into the city in late 2013, it had been for decades a secular oasis inthe Syrian regime's desert, turned into chaos by the civil war. ISIS quickly put its ugly brand on it with public executions, including beheadings.
Raqqa slowly became the group's center of global operations, its national hospital and stadium serving as headquarters from where attacks on foreign targets were planned.
After the loss of Mosul, the US coalition-backed noose on Raqqa was already in place, but the huge symbolism of the city for ISIS remained. Now, it is out of the terror group's hands.
There are cities and towns scattered in the Syrian and Iraqi desert where ISIS retains control, but they no longer hold a major city. It spells the end of the self-proclaimed "caliphate" as it was, and the end of an era for ISIS. Its supporters must now unite | {

A further problem relates to sealing the opening 40 to maintain the hermetic seal within the disc drive. In essence, the surface area between the opening 40 and the edges 46 and 52 of the top cover 42 often proves inadequate to hold an edge of a sticker or other adhesive covering (not shown).

Yemen was already the world’s worst humanitarian crisis for the last five years, and the arrival of coronavirus could make it much worse in the next few months.
The country has already been devastated by five years of war, pestilence, and famine, and last week there was a report of the first confirmed case of coronavirus there. Last month, the Trump administration had impeccably bad timing in suspending aid shipments to Houthi-controlled parts of the country because of Houthi interference with the delivery of aid. The humanitarian relief organization Oxfam warned that this suspension of aid comes at exactly the wrong time, and it leaves an already terribly weakened Yemen even more vulnerable to the ravages of the pandemic:

The superior court granted the motion and this appeal followed. For the reasons set forth below, we reverse the judgment.
I. FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND
The Dalton Highway is the first and only highway that runs from the Yukon River to the Arctic Ocean. It is maintained by the state primarily for the purpose of providing an overland route to the North Slopeback of the permit, wherein the indemnity provision is set forth. This statement was signed by a dispatcher of Drilling Mud Haulers. In accordance with an instruction on the permit, Kuhn received the original permit and carried it with him in the vehicle at all times he was on the highway. He presented the permit to the security attendant at the North Road checkpoint.
In its motion for summary judgment, the state argued that the indemnity provision included in Kuhn's permit barred his suit. Kuhn opposed the state's motion, contending that the indemnity provision is unenforceable because the state's maintenance of the highway is a "public duty." Permitting enforcement of the indemnity provision arguably would promote a breach of that duty by the state. Kuhn also contended that he | {

"Hey guys quick announcement, I've decided to retire from the sport formally known as 'Mixed Martial Art' today," wrote McGregor, 30, on the social media platform Tuesday.
"I wish all my old colleagues well going forward in competition. I now join my former partners on this venture, already in retirement. Proper Pina Coladas on me fellas!"
The controversial Irish fighter, whose nickname is "The Notorious," is currently ranked 8th on the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) pound-for-pound list. He leaves the sport with a 21-4-0 record, and UFC belts in two divisions.
Hey guys quick announcement, I've decided to retire from the sport formally known as "Mixed Martial Art" today. I wish all myold colleagues well going forward in competition. I now join my former partners on this venture, already in retirement. Proper Pina Coladas on me fellas!
McGregor's announcement comes just hours after an interview aired on "The Tonight Show" with Jimmy Fallon in which the fighter claimed he was in negotiations for an upcoming fight.
McGregor, told Fallon, "My next fight, we're in talks for July. We'll see what happens. A lot of politics going on. The fight game is a mad game but as I said again, to my fans I am in shape and I am ready."

National Road
The Cumberland Road (National Road) was the first major improved highway in the United States to be built by the federal government. The approximately 620-mile long National Road provided a connection between the Potomac and Ohio Rivers and a gateway to the West for thousands of settlers. When rebuilt in the 1830s, the Cumberland Road became the first road in the U.S. to use the new macadam road surfacing. Construction began heading west in 1811 at Cumberland, Maryland, on the Potomac River.Bingo. It's a game that had been played in Europe for centuries but it took an American entrepreneur in the early 20th Century to realise that he could give it a neat new name and turn it into a multi-million dollar business.

More than 50 armed men stormed the house of pastor Michael Robert in Punjab province to forcibly evict his whole family. The attack resulted in the kin's serious injuries.
The armed men, led by a local resident named Hameed Gaadi, reportedly arrived at Robert's house on the night of Oct. 19 firing their guns in the air to scare the locals. The mob forcibly opened the gate and attacked Robert's family, according to Morning Star News.
A local resident called the police to the scene and the injured family was brought to the hospital.
Aneeqa Maria, an attorney for advocacy group The Voice Society, said that the mob wanted to seize Robert's house, which is currently being disputed in court.
Maria said that the house wasbought by Robert's father from a local Muslim a few years ago but the family learned later that the previous owner had transferred the property to Gaadi's name.
Robert's family filed a lawsuit for fraud and a judge issued a restraining order to prevent anyone from evicting the family until the case was settled. A local police inspector named Syed Wajhul Hassan disregarded the order and allegedly told the family to vacate the house and surrender it to Gaadi.
Maria said that Hassan threatened the family when Robert refused to surrender the property. She alleged that the police took their time to respond to the emergency call on the night of the attack.

The Institute was founded by Ann Wigmore, who cured herself of cancer by doing what she saw her pets do when they were sick: eat grass. And she ate plain old grass, lawn grass, that is, and cured her cancer.
The way Wigmore chose wheat grass as the green to juice is interesting. She lined up a bunch of sprouted grains, including wheat, buckwheat, etc., and put her cat in front of the line of seven greens. The cat chose the | {

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (CBS/AP) When Christopher Newsom's bound, shot and burned body was identified, authorities warned his mother the sight would be too gruesome for her, but she insisted she had to go.
More than two years later, the first of four people who could face a death sentence in the carjacking, rape and murder of her 23-year-old son and his 21-year-old girlfriend, Channon Christian, goes to trial on Monday.
Mary Newsom recalled last week what she did in January 2007 when she viewed her son's body.

"I put my arm around the body bag and told him, 'Chris, I will not say goodbye to you because I know someday I will see you again.' That's what I believe. And that's what getsme through. It's been a long 2½ years."
Newsom and Christian had been on a Saturday night date on Jan. 6, 2007, and were leaving a friend's apartment complex around 12:30 a.m. Christian was behind the wheel and Newsom was standing in the open door kissing her when they were jumped at gunpoint in the parking lot, according to police accounts .
They were bound, blindfolded and brought to a rundown rental home in an industrial inner-city neighborhood about six miles away, according to police. Newsom wasn't there long before he was taken away, sexually assaulted, shot in the back of the head, set on fire and left beside some railroad tracks a few blocks away, according to defendants' statements.

Beyond this bay are the waters of the Mercury Passage, with Maria Island providing a spectacular backdrop to the view. Beaches worth spending time at include, running north to south, Raspins Beach, Millingtons Beach, Spring Beach and Rebhan Beach. The Thumbs Look out and Wielangta Forest are nearby. Spring Beach and Rebhan Beach can be visited on the way to Weilangta Forest by driving south on Charles Street which becomes Rebhan Road. When this meets up with Weilangta Road continue south for the forest drive. On the return to Orford stay on the Weilangta Road and you will go via The Thumbs Lookout. From the lookout, there isa 2 hour walking track to The Thumbs for the energetic. If heading to the lookout from town, go south on Charles Street, and turn right on to Weilangta Road. When we visited, the only signage for the turnoff to Weilangta Road said, "Quarry". The Convict Walk commences on the northside of the Orford Bridge and runs west along the Prosser River. This road was built by convicts and doesn't actually lead anywhere, but is now good for a pleasant stroll along the river.

(Newser) – For the fifth time, a Maryland house has been the victim of an out-of-control car. "When he crashed into the wall, I said, 'Damn, another car hit my house,'" homeowner Leonard Miller, 88, tells Fox 5 DC. Miller has lived in the Prince George's County home since 1971, and he says early Wednesday morning is at least the fifth time a car has come over a hill approaching his house and lost control as it turned a corner, causing it to jump the curb and ram into a wall. The crashes typically happen when it's dark out, and Miller tells WJLA drivers "fly" down the street near his house, where the posted speed limit is 30mph.

LDS Apostle Bruce R. McConkie discussed the curse on Cain:
Though he was a rebel and an associate of Lucifer in pre-existence, and though he was a liar from the beginning whose name was Perdition, Cain managed to attain the privilege of mortal birth. Under Adam's tutelage, he began in this life to serve God. . . . Then he came out in open rebellion, fought God, worshiped Lucifer, and slew Abel. . . .
As a result of his rebellion, Cain was cursed with a dark skin; he became the father of theNegroes, and those spirits who are not worthy to receive the priesthood are born through his lineage. He became the first mortal to be cursed as a son of perdition. As a result of his mortal birth he is assured of a tangible body of flesh and bones in eternity, a fact which will enable him to rule over Satan (Mormon Doctrine, by Bruce R. McConkie, Bookcraft, 1958 edition, p. 102; in the 1966 and 1979 editions, p. 109).

1981: Ron Streck wins the Houston Open, the first PGA victory by a player carrying a newfangled metal wood. Streck's win with the TaylorMade metalwood goes largely unnoticed at the time, since the tournament was rain-shortened and he didn't hit the club on television.

Also, most rockets don't really suffer from a lack of electrical power. Of all modern rockets, the Electron is basically the only one which uses batteries as "fuel" and discards them as the rocket gains altitude. Additionally, while flywheels may reach high densities, they are still nowhere near the immense energy density of liquid rocket propellants. Syphoning off a tiny portion of the fuel is often done with a small turbine which then powers the pumps.

providing regular care for Daniel and placing him at risk of physical harm, damage, and
danger. No allegations in the Petition were made against Father.
Also on July 25, 2013, DCFS filed a Detention Report (hereafter Detention
Report) stating that Daniel was born in an alley in Venice, California, and was taken to
the hospital by emergency services team. The hospital was concerned about Mother’s
ability to care for Daniel given that Mother was living on the streets, appeared to be
mentally ill, had no support network besides friends also living on the streets, and had no
substantial living arrangements that would support Mother as well as Daniel.

— Jerry Richardson, the businessman who owns the Carolina Panthers, is homegrown, from small-town roots in Spring Hope. The Nash County town of 1,300 is sharing in the Super Bowl excitement with typical understated pride.

And in between a 12.42-mile public toll-road comprised of 156 turns to negotiate as competitors climb 4,720 feet, from the 9,390 feet start line to the 14,115 feet finish line at the mountain's summit.
Arguably nobody knows the twists and turn of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb as well as Carlin Dunne, who has won the legendary race -- also known as the "Race to the Clouds" -- four times and will defend his title on Saturday.
"After the race, it can take weeks to come down," Dunne told CNN Sport's Don Riddell of the emotion of winning. "The experience is secondto none."

Reaching the pinnacle
The Ducati racer -- who is also a stuntman -- has been riding two-wheelers almost since he could walk. His father was a professional rider, while Dunne started his career as a bike salesman.
The 36-year-old Dunne says he allocates at least six months to prepare for the race.

"And to get to the finish line at 14,000 feet, to be standing at what seems to be the top of the world, it's very hard | {
