plaintiff and defendant in this case, think their names are treasures to be safeguarded jealously. From the surname Brennan, plaintiff's predecessor coined a trademark he used for his restaurant. Defendant, also named Brennan, attached to that surname his first name of Terrance and used these names as a mark for his restaurant. Thus, the stage for the trademark litigation before us was set. BACKGROUND 2 Plaintiff Brennan's, Inc. (Brennan's New Orleans, plaintiff, or appellant) owns and operates the restaurant "Brennan's," founded in 1946 in New Orleans, Louisiana. Plaintiff registered the name Brennan's pursuant to the Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 1051 et seq., as a trademark for its restaurant services. The validity of that mark is not disputed. Plaintiff operates one other restaurant, "Owen Brennan's Restaurant," in Memphis, Tennessee, but ownsno restaurants in the New York City area. 3 Terrance Brennan, so named at birth, is a New York City chef who, prior to this litigation, opened two restaurants in New York City, "Picholine" and "Artisanal." He is a well-known "name" chef whose reputation attracts customers. At the center of this controversy is his newest enterprise, "Terrance Brennan's Seafood & Chop House" (Terrance Brennan's), located in Manhattan. A corporation was formed called 565 Lexington Avenue Co., LLC to own and operate the restaurant. This corporation along with its sole managing member, Brennan's Restaurant, LLC, are the named defendants in this action. Defendants originally called the new restaurant "Brennan's Seafood & Chop House," but after receiving a cease-and-desist letter from plaintiff's lawyers, they added the first name "Terrance" to their mark. 4 Brennan's

the public as his predecessor, Takatora Kureshima used the Melon Lockseed. Yuya tells Kouta about the Sengoku Driver and tells him to meet him, but he is lured into a Crack and is drawn by the Helheim flora and eats one of the fruits, warping his mind and becoming the Byakko Inves while dropping the Sengoku Driver. When Kouta finds Yuya's Sengoku Driver and puts it on, it also converted the premature Lockseeds into the Orange and Ichigo Lockseeds. Kouta transforms into Gaim for the first time and through the help of the Priestess of Fate, he kills Yuya, never realizing he killed one of his close friends until much later. Yuya's death inspires Kouta to become something much more, someone to never resort to bloodshed, and as aresult, Kouta puts blind trust in enemies and friends alike. In the Soccer Cup event, Kougane masquerades as Yuya, though he was exposed by Kouta due to the presence of a Lockseed in his possession. He soon reveals that he isn't Yuya before transforming into Armored Rider Mars and corrupting Kouta. Yuya would appear in Redyue's illusion with the roles switched up, having Kouta as an Inves and Yuya as Gaim. Byakko Inves After Yuya ate a premature lockseed, he transformed into the Byakko Inves (ビャッコインベス,Byakko Inbesu, White Tiger Inves), the first Advanced Inves to emerge from the Helheim Forest and attacks Kouta Kazuraba and Mai Takatsukasa, who were ironically were looking for Yuya in the Helheim Forest.

shaped the region's society and politics. While in prison, Öcalan corresponded with (and was influenced by) Murray Bookchin, an anarcho-communist theorist and philosopher who developed Communalism and libertarian municipalism. Modelled after Bookchin's ideas, Öcalan developed the theory of democratic confederalism. In March 2005, he issued his "Declaration of Democratic Confederalism in Kurdistan", calling upon citizens "to stop attacking the government and instead create municipal assemblies, which he called 'democracy without the state'". == Anarchist schools of thought == Anarchist schools of thought had been generally grouped in two main historical traditions, individualist anarchism and social anarchism, which have some different origins, values and evolution. The individualist wing of anarchism emphasises negative liberty, i.e. opposition to state or social control over the individual, while those in the social wing emphasise positive liberty to achieve one's potential and argue that humans have needs that society ought to fulfil, "recognising equality of entitlement". In a chronologicalschools of thought. === Mutualism === Mutualism began in 18th-century English and French labour movements before taking an anarchist form associated with Pierre-Joseph Proudhon in France and others in the United States. Proudhon proposed spontaneous order, whereby organisation emerges without central authority, a "positive anarchy" where order arises when everybody does "what he wishes and only what he wishes" and where "business transactions alone produce the social order." Proudhon distinguished between ideal political possibilities and practical governance. For this reason, much in contrast to some of his theoretical statements concerning ultimate spontaneous self-governance, Proudhon was heavily involved in French parliamentary politics and allied himself not with anarchist but socialist factions of workers' movements and, in addition to advocating state-protected charters for worker-owned cooperatives, promoted certain nationalisation schemes during his life of public service. Mutualist anarchism is concerned with reciprocity, free association, voluntary contract, federation, and credit and currency reform. According to the American mutualist

(“Hanover”) in exchange for a pro-rata membership interest in Hanover.” Compl. ¶ 39. Then, on December 14, 2000, Mr. Kotite resigned as a member of Hanover and sold his interest in the company, for which he received payment in Canadian dollars. He later sold the Canadian dollars for United States dollars, taking a loss as a result of that transaction because, at that time, the exchange rate for Canadian dollars to United States dollars was less favorable. On his 2000 federal income tax return, Mr. Kotite represented that his basis in his interest in Hanover was increased by the $1,750,000 long option, without accounting for the reduction by the short option premium. He further represented that upon selling his member interest in Hanover, he received foreign currency “whose cumulative basis equaled his outside basis in Hanover”; heperson of interest. And his method was a series of complex transactions that bore a striking resemblance to Son-of-BOSS [which stands for Son- of-Bond and Option Sales Strategy] deals already examined many times before by this Court—but with a corporate-partner twist. ....

The IRS gave him no notice that the computer or records would be seized and apparently gave him no opportunity to make a copy for himself from the computer database. The data stored in the computer's memory was erased after the seizure. After the levy, Block contacted some of his customers who owed LTS money to encourage them to pay. He met with little success. The court presented the jury the issue of the taxpayers' responsibility and willfulness in failing to pay over the withholding taxes of LTS's employees. The jury concluded that Robert Cash and Randall Block were responsible and willful for the fourth quarterof 1984, the first and fourth quarters of 1985, and the first two quarters of 1986 (all quarters with deficiencies). The jury found Evelyn Cash responsible for all five quarters but willful only for the first two quarters of 1986. The taxpayers filed a motion for JNOV. In their motion, the taxpayers argued that as a result of the levy on LTS's accounts receivable, LTS's withholding tax liability should be considered discharged. Once LTS's tax liability is satisfied, taxpayers contend that their liability as responsible parties is also discharged. The district court denied their motion and the taxpayers appeal.

Given the lapse of time, she was of the opinion that it was in the minors‟ best interests to remain together and that the current placement was appropriate in that the foster family appeared to meet the minors‟ needs and was making an effort to assist the minors in recognizing their cultural heritage. The CPN had no objection to the minors moving toward permanency in the current placement. The declaration discussed CPN community standards relating to domestic violence, substance abuse, and mental health treatment. The tribe did not condone domestic violence and would remove children from exposure to it. Further, before a child would be returned, the parents had to work toward education, counseling, and development of ways to deal with potentially violent situations. The CPNtribal representative and case manager, Laurie Clark, who was fully informed of the history and progress of the case and was consulted on placement and permanency issues. The tribal representative, in her function as an Indian expert, also provided the court with the cultural context in which to assess the services that had been offered to the parents. As an expert, she could not testify that active efforts were made since that is a question of law and ICWA does not require such testimony to support a finding of active efforts, but she could, and did, 2 Appellant claims that failure to discover the proper Indian heritage was not her fault.

during a single crime spree. Although the nine urns were stolen from the mausoleum during a single crime spree, each urn was contained in a separate niche covered by its own pane of glass. Each urn was heavy and required both hands to lift and carry it, with the double urns being sufficiently heavy to require being “walk[ed]” along the floor. As a result, the theft required defendant to break each pane of glass and remove each urn individually. Each urn then had to be moved out of the building and stashed one at a time. Additionally, the urns were purchased separately and were the property of separate victims, a fact that was apparent given the separate niches and the metal identification plaques on the urns.12 Thus, the thefts constitutedResidency Eligibility Rules Jerry Pingoy Rule: (HS UAAP to other UAAP College) In addition, if a player graduated High School from a UAAP member school and then transfers to another UAAP member school for college must do a 2-year residency.

My opinion concerning fighting them For I said: by God, I see in fighting al-Qa'ida the strongest fight as the first one, for if al-Qa'ida had vanished two years ago and its strength had vanished, the hearts of many of the factions and components would have leaned towards you: the ones that believe there to be in al-Qa'ida the troop of the mujahideen, even as they do not realize that Jowlani- may God degrade him- is a youth in jihad who has not had the experiences of those before him and did not realize how jihad reached the building of the state through us. Had al-Qa'ida beendestroyed, with it would have been destroyed the evidence foundation of many of those in error and no one would have hesitated to join the state. For that happen solely because of the apostasy of Jowlani from the allegiance pledge to the caliph, by which also the first rank [the leadership] was split, and the door of slaughter in the body was opened. And Jowlani's apostasy was in the most dangerous labor pains that the Ummah experienced, in the web of establishment and placing of foundations, so Qa'idat al-Jihad has abandoned the base of Islam! And many of the mujahideen thought that in the apostasy of Jowlani there was a decisive word for the emir of al-Qa'ida al-Zawahiri, but it was not for America to be pleased with them after the

combatant elements of the Pacific Fleet with orders to contain or destroy the Japanese Fleet.9 Despite the firm decision of the Combined Chiefs and the Joint Chiefs of December 1943, that the Central Pacific campaign would have priority, General MacArthur sought to advance his own proposals by sending his Chief of Staff and supporting officers to Pearl Harbor, and then on to Washington. Admiral King thought that the proposal to divert major naval resources from the Central Pacific to the Southwest Pacific on a long time basis was "absurd" and so said to anyone within hearing and in a letter to Admiral Nimitz.10 On 2 March 1944, the Joint Chiefs avoided meeting the issue head on, but did go so far as to state: Our first major objective in the war against Japan will be the vital Luzon-Formosa-China coast area.11 This tied inwith the Central Pacific Campaign far more realistically than the south-north drive up through New Guinea, particularly when coupled with a Joint Chiefs' cancellation of General MacArthur's proposed assault on Kavieng in New Ireland, and advice to him that the Central Pacific Campaign had priority in military resources over the Southwest Pacific Campaign. It was another ten days before the seal of approval to the Central Pacific Campaign and the GRANITE Plan was reaffirmed.12 The final Joint Chiefs' decision was to confirm Admiral Nimitz's proposal to assault the Marianas on 15 June 1944. Success in the Marianas, of itself, would largely neutralize Truk and isolate the Central Carolines because it would throttle the main Japanese aircraft pipeline down from the Empire to the Carolines.

Grace Benedict had been in love, and then the fires of passion had brought not warmth and comfort, but a raging conflagration that left her scarred and terrified of getting close enough to be burned a second time. On a few occasions in the past she had met someone nice and determined to try once more, only to shy away after the first date or the first kiss. But she had had a best friend. Jet. Evelyn Jetterly. They had met in the library, liked each other, and began meeting for coffee to discuss books. Gradually their intellectual companionship ripened into something more personal, the kind of friendship and belonging Grace hadn’t known since college. For almost ten years they laughed together, cried together, told each other everything–almost. The twoof them were closer than sisters, and Grace was happy. Until Jet, too, was snatched out of her life. Grace could still feel the frail bones of Jet’s hand gripping hers, see the skeletal face with its wide eyes and dry, cracked lips. In Jet’s case it was cervical cancer, and it took her so quickly that neither of them had time to adjust. She was just. . .gone. Grace tried in vain to push Jet’s dying image out of her mind. She didn’t want to remember her friend that way, but the picture stayed with her. Now it was her turn, and there would be no one sitting by her bedside holding her hand when she passed.

rather than like an original lawsuit. 13 The plaintiff argues that the period within which he had to bring the suit was not really 17 months, because after the internal appeals process was completed the parties continued discussing the possibility of a peaceful settlement until May 1994, by which time the 39-month limitations period had already expired for the first 14 months of benefits sought. But discussing settlement after striking out at the final stage of the appeals process no more extends the deadline for suit than discussing settlement after the final judgment in the district court extends the time for taking an appeal. The internal appeals process was over in September 1991. The plaintiff's lawyer knew this, threatened suit, then joined the defendants' lawyers in seekingplaintiff's lawyer in the request to delay suing), since it would be absurd to ask that the plaintiff kindly delay filing suit until it was too late for him to do so. The letter had to mean, moreover, not just that Blue Cross was agreeing to toll the contractual limitations period until the end of November, but that it was agreeing to toll the period until Bartlett considered the matter and informed the plaintiff's lawyer of the results of her consideration. It would have been contrary to the spirit of the implicit agreement between the two lawyers forged by the telephone conversation and confirmatory letter for the plaintiff's lawyer to have fired off a lawsuit on the last day of November without waiting to hear what

DeMaurice Smith took the NFL union into a new era and shifted the conversation in the league in a different, needed direction. Hunter’s credentials were impeccable, and was put in the most challenging position by having to endure lockouts twice in a relatively short time. The problem in all three cases was a level of stubbornness, short-sightedness and appetite for power from the owners and commissioners, who were making cases for their actions without ever seeming to offer proof to back them up.

(other than Rabbit) to be on the Georgia side of the boundary line between the two States. Thus, the short duration of actual possession, the limited South Carolina official Acts, and the paucity of published or recorded documents referring to the islands as in South Carolina fall far short, Georgia claims, of establishing the open and continuous possession required to confirm a boundary by prescription. This is especially so since the islands remained as islands in the river until well into the 20th century, and since South Carolina continued to recognize officially the Treaty of Beaufort with its provision that all islands in the river are in Georgia. This is not a situation where Georgia can be held to have acquiesced. South Carolina, in its turn, first takes the positionthere was no record of taxation or other sovereign action over these lands by Georgia except, possibly, for three isolated instances in the early part of the 19th century. Some documents recorded in Georgia, because they also involved Georgia property, describe the islands as in South Carolina. There is evidence, too, that Savannah residents were aware of cultivation on the islands.

Instead, without informing his superiors, he brought her to the Stadium Hotel in Miami Gardens, used his police discount to pay for her two-night stay, told the front desk she was a victim of domestic violence (she wasn’t), and lied to the front desk clerk about state attorney’s office reimbursing him for the expense.

Shauntelle Tynan (18) posted a heartbreaking video online yesterday, in which she pleaded with the public to support her health care costs in the US and said specialist treatment in Houston, Texas would be her "last-chance". Since the video was shared on Shauntelle's Youtube channel and on Independent.ie, more than 26k people have donated to the campaign, raising more than €514k throughout the past two days and over €674k in total. The Carlow teenager took to Facebook on Tuesday to thank those who donated to her campaign, which has well surpassed its €500k goal.

Shortly after moving, defendant was assigned a new supervising probation officer, Day. In July 2009, Day mailed a fee statement to defendant at his Mill Street address, but the mail was returned as undeliverable. Day then attempted to reach defendant through his employer, Roadway Safety Supply, but was informed that defendant no longer worked there. Day was unable to reach defendant and never

the Orléans area to push aside the Prussian X Corps, led by Prince Friedrich Karl, which was posted to Beaune-la-Rolande to provide early warning of a French relief force for Paris. The three Prussian brigades at Beaune-la-Rolande were under the command of Konstantin Bernhard von Voigts-Rhetz and were resting after pursuing retreating French forces. The nearest reinforcements were ten miles away at Pithiviers under General Constantin von Alvensleben. General Crouzat had a force of between 31,000 and 60,000 men and 140 artillery pieces against the Prussian 9,000 to 12,000 men and 70 guns. The French force were equipped with the Chassepot rifle which had almost double the effective range of the Prussian Dreyse and also held the element of surprise. With this in mind anattack was launched at 11.30am against the village which was protected only by a small walled churchyard and a six-foot wall along its south side, the French committed two brigades (6000 men) to this charge. Battle First attack The Prussians, coming under heavy French artillery fire, withdrew all bar 13 companies of infantry (1,200 men) from the village and awaited the assault. Opening fire at 200 paces, the French assaults were halted at the edge of the village, its roads now protected by barricades. The most successful attack was made by the 3rd Zouave Regiment which left 700 dead and wounded men on the field before breaking. Every one of General Crouzat's staff officers were killed or wounded whilst encouraging the attack. Second attack A second attack was sent at 1.30pm

executed an individual limited guaranty to DVI Financial. DVI Financial agreed to act as the servicing agent for the leases, which were part of complex securitization transactions involving the parties on appeal. The equipment leases and related assets were ultimately transferred from lessor-servicing agent DVI Financial to the DVI Entities, appellants here. The DVI Entities were special purpose entities created solely for the purpose of the securitization transactions, by which the DVI Entities issued notes, secured by the leases, to noteholders. In other words, DVI Financial, through the DVI Entities, financed the purchase of the medical equipment (which they leased to the NMI LPs) apparently by obtaining loans from and issuing notes to noteholders. Lyon’s too. Furthermore, the evidence showed that the DVI Entities had no knowledge of the involuntary petition separate from Fox’s knowledge. At the time Fox executed the involuntary petition in November 2008, Fox was not an officer, director, or employee of any DVI Entity. Rather, Fox was the Director of Operations for Lyon. There was no meeting of the directors or officers of any DVI Entity to authorize Fox to sign the involuntary petition. In fact, no one at Lyon, including Fox, ever corresponded with any DVI Entity before the filing of the petition. Indeed, as of the petition date, five of the DVI Entities were not even in good standing with the Delaware Secretary of State and had been administratively dissolved. It was not until mid-January 2009 that Lyon’s in-house counsel,

2012, when he won 76-24 percent over his Republican opponent. He told the judges that candidates were not only loathe to run in districts made less competitive by redistricting but bedrock donors would shy away, too. "There would be a term we would use, no way in hell," Dillon said, in referencing how no one wanted involvement in a gerrymandered district. "It's very difficult to recruit candidates or raise money," Dillon said, adding that it was even arduous to find volunteers to help knock on doors in a district that was heavily Republican. It was the second day of testimony in a case brought by the League of Women Voters and several Democrats. Testimony will continue Thursday, and the defense is expected to call one witness. On cross examination from defense attorneyKevin Fanning, Dillon was asked about how two Democrats — Elissa Slotkin in the 8th and Haley Stevens in the 11th congressional districts, respectively — won in "cracked" districts. "The U.S. hockey team beat Russia" during the 1980 Olympics, but it didn't happen 9 out of 10 times before, he said. Political experts have said the unpopularity of Republican President Donald Trump helped Democratic candidates in those districts. Stevens ran in a district where incumbent Republican Rep. David Trott retired. Dillon also lamented about how the Democratic National Committee run by then-chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz shifted more money to national races and away from states to compete. Gerrymandered districts made it extra difficult to field quality candidates and raise money, he said. Meanwhile, the process Vatter said he witnessed in 2011 was

which indicate that the university president also might have been a part of the decision to end Taylor’s time at Alabama. Here’s what Brown included in her story (emphasis mine): University Expulsion: Separation of the student from the University permanently or on an indefinite basis. A student permanently expelled is prohibited from reapplying to the University in the future or from earning a degree from any of its colleges or schools. Readmission of a student expelled on an indefinite basis may not occur within five years and shall require the recommendation of the Vice President for Student Affairs and approval of the Provost. If a disciplinary action results in the Judicial Administrator determining that expulsion is the appropriate sanction, then the Vice President for Student Affairs shall review thesanction and shall make the final decision to expel after consultation with the President of the University. Because a decision to expel a student is made after consultation with the President, a student has no right to request a review of the sanction of expulsion. Advertisement In a separate story, AL.com also got court documents that give more details about Taylor’s accuser told police when she recanted.

many of the Catskill Hotels during that time. Of all that long list of talents, Sammy Davis Jr. was the top billing. And one of the hotels in which Davis sometimes performed was Hotel Brickman, a fact I learned one August day during a pleasant after work discussion with the hotel’s captain of the bell hops. The man, a tallish, broad- shouldered, middle aged guy who had worked in the hotel for more than 20 years, was known to have met many of the entertainers who performed at the hotel during his time there. The “Captain”, who seemed to like to me, said that he had a personal story to tell about Sammy Davis, which he predicted would make a great impression on me. It did, and over the years my brain has relived it countless times. I havealso told it many times to friends, acquaintances and even students in my graduate English classes. As a result, I believe that (almost) every one of the words of the tale the captain of the bellhops of the Hotel Brickman told me on a long gone hot summer early evening remains well stored in my memory bank. And I can still recall his words as follows: It was some time in the summer of 1962 that Davis, who was with his wife May, had come to the hotel to perform one weekend. After the couple left the limousine that had transported them to the hotel, their luggage was taken to their suite by one of the hotel’s bellhops. As I was to later learn, it turned out to be the wrong guy for the job. He was an

and one-half to four miles wide. The Spanish-surnamed population is concentrated in the downtown area in the northern part of the district. The Anglo residents are primarily in the southern part of the district, a suburban area. The Spanish-surnamed students make up 24.6 percent of the total student population of the district. In the northern area, the student population is 60.5 percent Spanish-surnamed, representing 78.8 percent of the Spanish-surnamed school children in the district. The student population of the southern-suburban schools is .07 percent Spanish-surnamed. No statutorily mandated "dual system" of segregated schools has ever existed in the district. 4 For many years, the district adhered to a "neighborhood policy," under which students are required to attend schools within designated "attendance areas" in whichthey reside. Although the goal of the policy is to allow students to attend schools within walking distance of their homes, extensive transportation of the students in the district is used, but transportation is only within attendance areas. 5 Appellees knew, at least as early as 1962, that the district was racially imbalanced. At that time, the school board passed a resolution acknowledging that segregation was inherently harmful. Following state requirements, the school board conducted annual ethnic surveys beginning in 1966 which disclosed a continuing pattern of racial imbalance. The school board reaffirmed its commitment to racial integration in a policy statement issued in 1970. 6 Since 1965, appellees have undertaken a whole series of actions that maintained the racial imbalance of the district.

issue of attorney's fees would be addressed at the September 19, 2007 hearing. Thereafter, at the hearing, the plaintiff testified that he was aware that the defendant was requesting attorney's fees and costs. The plaintiff did not request any further hearing, did not ask the court to undertake an inquiry into the comparative financial situation of the parties and raised no question about the calculation of the amount of fees claimed by the defendant. "Our law for awarding attorney's fees in contempt proceedings is clear. General Statutes § 46b-87 provides that the court may award attorney's fees to the prevailing party in a contempt proceeding. The award of attorney's fees in contempt proceedings is within the discretion of the court. . . . In making its determination, the courtthe pendency of the plaintiff's first two appeals, the defendant filed two additional motions for attorney's fees. On December 17, 2007, she filed a motion for attorney's fees and costs to defend herself against the plaintiff's second appeal. On January 11, 2008, she filed a motion for contempt alleging further wilful arrearages in the plaintiff's weekly alimony obligations. After hearings held on February 19 and 21, 2008, and further briefing, the court rendered a judgment on March 28, 2008, ordering the plaintiff to pay the defendant $500 for attorney's fees with respect to her contempt motion and $3000 for attorney's fees for her defense of the plaintiff's second appeal.

In the pension application John Denney states he was born in Amherst Co., Virginia, on 24 August 1766 on the waters of the Rockfish River. He lived 20 years in Amherst Co. then moved to Fayette Co., KY. This would be about 1786 or 1787. He goes on to say that the family lived in Fayette Co. six years then moved to Clark Co., KY. This would be about 1792. He had lived in Wayne Co., KY,43 years when he filed the pension application which would have him moving to Wayne Co. in about 1798. "...Fayette Co. was the original county in Kentucky that was formed from Virginia.Clark Co. was formed from Fayette and Wayne Co. from Cumberland and Pulaski.

her while she was practically unconscious, she was asked why she did not push him away. No action was taken against him. The next major case I worked on involved a young woman who was gang raped by three football players at Notre Dame. In that case, the school had turned over her statement to the players in advance of police questioning, which enabled them to collaborate on a story. The campus police officers who gave them the information, thereby violating the school’s written policy and assurances of confidentiality, also worked parking cars at football games on weekends and knew the men. The fourth assailant who did not complete the rape was found guilty on lesser charges in court, but the others saw no criminal sanction for a brutaland premeditated gang rape. Another case involved a young female student who was out with friends drinking. When her friends wanted to go elsewhere for the night, they dropped her off at a male friend’s room, who said he would take care of her until the effects of the alcohol wore off. Instead, he and another male friend raped her. One of the accused men then bragged to a third friend about what the two men had done, who in turn then circulated the story in an email to his living group. The email corroborated the young woman’s account, including particular sounds she remembered hearing. She brought a complaint against the men through her school. They were held responsible and suspended, but then hired an attorney who prevailed upon

hostility toward each other affected their children's behavior and performance in school and forced the children into counseling. On May 11, 1994, the Chancery Court for Williamson County awarded Ms. Solima the divorce and sole custody of the five children who were then between four and thirteen years of age. The trial court also granted Mr. Solima specific visitation rights, including visitation every other weekend, holiday visitation, and extended visitation during the summer. Mr. Solima was ordered to pay $1,615 per month and one-half of any bonus he received as child support and to provide appropriate insurance coverage for the children. The parties' hostility did not abate following the divorce. Since they could not communicate with each other directly, they communicated through their lawyers. Ms. Solima continued to denigrateMr. Solima in front of the children and declined to keep Mr. Solima informed about the children's activities. Mr. Solima's exercise of his visitation rights provided a recurring flashpoint between the parties, and their conduct intensified after Mr. Solima's female companion moved in with him in August 1994. By Thanksgiving 1994, the parties' two oldest children, who were then thirteen and twelve years old, were resisting visitation with Mr. Solima. Mr. Solima's relationship with his two oldest children finally disintegrated during their Christmas 1994 visitation. Mr. Solima had planned to take all five of his children to St. Louis to visit their paternal grandparents during this extended visitation.

place in Oklahoma, in June and July 1987. Id., at 55a—57a. The crimes charged in the Oklahoma indictment were related to the operation of the methamphetamine lab near Beggs, Oklahoma, in the summer of 1987, while the crime charged in the Missouri indictment dealt solely with Felix's attempt to purchase chemicals and equipment from Dwinnells in order to continue methamphetamine operations after the Beggs lab was raided. The actual crimes charged in each case were different in both time and place; there was absolutely no common conduct linking the alleged offenses. In short, none of the offenses for which Felix was prosecuted in the Oklahoma indictment is in any sense the "same offence" as the offence for which he was prosecuted in Missouri.

The State charged the defendant with driving while intoxicated and with failing to keep right of the median, and the defendant pleaded guilty to those two traffic violations.

I watched in cricket (South Africa vs India 1991, Eden Gardens in which South Africa mde its return to international cricket - part of folklore now that match) Then the first full one day matches I watched were in the series in South Africa where India lost 5-2 in 1993 I think. Would wake up late in the night and watch cricket for the first time that way. Loved Dave Callaghan. Loved Brett Schultz earlier on. Have always been a fan of Cronje's captaincy. Am really looking forward to seeing the likes of Steyn and DeVilliers. Have been impressed by Amla as well. Considering that I was only 9 when I started watching cricket, and the younger days are more impressionable where you develop the tastes stronger at latter stages,South Africa stuck with me mentally. Have always followed them since. 15-12-2004, 10:46 AM Richard They've also emulated India in having a two-tier A-List-team situation. 15-12-2004, 10:58 AM Langeveldt Quote: Originally Posted by Pratyush South Africa has always been a nation I have supported very passionately in cricket right since the first match I watched in cricket (South Africa vs India 1991, Eden Gardens in which South Africa mde its return to international cricket - part of folklore now that match) Then the first full one day matches I watched were in the series in South Africa where India lost 5-2 in 1993 I think. Would wake up late in the night and watch cricket for the first time that way. Loved Dave Callaghan. Loved Brett Schultz earlier on. Have always been a fan of Cronje's captaincy.

It was a night of emotions for Orlando City on Saturday night. Outside of the Fuerza Puerto Rico match, which raised thousands of dollars for hurricane relief and outside Kaká’s final game in an Orlando City jersey, was a moment of magic. Joe Campo, affectionately known throughout the supporters section as “Purple Deadpool” was one of the capo leaders that led the Wall in chants throughout the match. The former member relations and vice president for The Ruckus tragically passed away in a car accident on October 31st, leaving his family and friends devastated. During the Fuerza Puerto Rico game, the Wall memorialized Campo on the capo stand, with a purple Deadpool sticker, a banner reading “#BeJoe” and his number 69 custom Deadpool jersey hanging from the capo stand whichof Indiana.

of eight years of elementary school and some study in a business course. His last employment was with the B. F. Goodrich Company, Akron, Ohio, where he was employed for over twenty-one years. In November of 1953 he was given a medical leave of absence, and was finally retired by his employer in December of 1954, on a permanent and total disability basis. Plaintiff's job with the Goodrich Company apparently consisted primarily of manual type labor in the maintenance department. In 1950, however, and up to the time of his retirement, the Plaintiff was placed on a restricted basis for medical reasons and was tried on several jobs, the last being as an elevator operator. The medical evidence upon which the Referee made his decision is composed of reportsby several physicians who are unanimous in diagnosing Plaintiff's malady as arthritis of the spine. A detailed analysis or explanation of Plaintiff's condition and its manifestations, as revealed by the record as a whole, would only serve to unduly prolong this opinion. A brief resume of the conclusions of the respective physicians, and the weight and treatment given them by the Referee, will suffice. Two of the doctors were of the opinion that the Plaintiff is permanently and totally disabled; one of these, a Doctor Taxdal, has been the Plaintiff's personal physician since February of 1954, and his report specifically states that Plaintiff has been unable to perform any work since November of 1954. The report of a Doctor Jukes dated December 30, 1955, states that Mr. Corn has

of the lndianised states of southern Sumatra. Its ruler was a Brahamanist King Puranvarman of whom little is known apart from the fact that he built the two canals named after two Indian rivers, seven miles long in 21 days'.(HM). This attests to the fact that the said ruler was a Hindu and a Tamil and had settled in an strategic position on the shores of TAIRUMA to control the Sunda straits. It is obvious he built the two canals 7 miles long to anchor all his merchant vessels as the northern tip of Sunda is affected by both the North -West and South-West monsoons. The first kingdom of Java was ruled by a Hindu-Indonesian court, which was the kingdom of Matram under King Sahjaya in 732 AD. The Hindu religion adopted by the court was `Sivaistic'. Hindu temples were builtin the central town and commercial state like Sri Vijaya evolved due to the power wielded by the Hindu court over the Javanese farmers. From the 7th century AD, Sri Vijaya developed into the greatest maritime empire in South East Asia, straddling the cross-roads of sea traffic between Middle East, the Indian sub-continent and China. It exerted firm maritime control over the straits of Malacca and south China sea, the whole western part of Indonesia, the greater part of Malay Peninsula and West Java and put claims on Sri Lanka. Chola Empire at the height of its Power circa 1050 AD This maritime power started to wane. King Chandrabhanu decided to resolve the claims of Sri Vijaya on the island of Sri Lanka.

(CNN) A case of mistaken identity left a man dead after protecting his family from an invader. Officers were dispatched to an Aurora, Colorado home around 1:30 Monday morning. They heard gunshots coming from inside the house, according to Aurora Police Department Chief Nick Metz. Upon entering, officers saw a dead body lying on the bathroom floor, and assumed he was a victim of the invasion. Then, Metz said, they saw Richard "Gary" Black, 73, standing in the living room --- alive --- and armed. He was perceived as the perpetrator, so they opened fire. But Black was not the invader. He lived there. 'A very, very violent and complex situation' Metz detailed the following events Thursday in a press conference: When officers arrived to the home, there was yelling. A number ofpeople were standing outside the home, including Black's wife. When officers passed her, she said "he has a gun." Richard "Gary" Black was taken to a hospital where he died from his injuries. Then, shots rung out from inside. Black emerged shortly after, with a gun in one hand and a flashlight in the other. Standing by the front door, within 15 to 20 feet of Black, officers commanded Black to drop the weapon and put his hands up several times. "We don't know why, but for whatever reason, Mr. Black did not drop the gun," Metz said. Black raised the flashlight, and it was then that an officer fired four rounds at him, he said. Black had just shot the intruder, identified by police and the coroner's office as 26-year-old Dajon Harper.

had been interrupted. Moreover, the letter explained that the 12 consecutive quarters could not be pieced together by using the plan's grace period provisions, which allow for a one-year break in service under certain conditions. Finally, the letter informed Daill that he could appeal the fund's decision in accordance with the plan's provisions. 7 Daill appealed the fund's decision in writing. In March 1983, the fund through its attorney denied Daill's appeal. The two-page letter reiterated the original basis for the fund's decision denying Daill a pension: he had not returned to work for 12 consecutive calendar quarters. 8 Daill earned calendar quarters of pension credit in 1984, 1985, and 1986, but no more than three quarters consecutively. In May 1986, Daill filed a formal applicationfor benefits with the fund,3 once again claiming his forfeited pension credits. Daill presented the same argument he had made in 1982 (and the fund rejected in 1983), namely, that he could recover his pension credits even though he had not returned to work for 12 consecutive quarters. Soon afterward, the fund administrator responded in writing, explaining to Daill that his application had been denied by the trustees because while he had returned to work for "some quarters," he had not returned for 12 consecutive quarters. Nearly six years later, Daill filed yet another application for pension benefits, which was denied for the same reason. 9 Daill sued the fund in district court in August 1993 under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA"), 29 U.S.C. §§

He testified that DMJM management began to pressure him to quit and apply for disability benefits. Dissatisfied with his options under standard DMJM disability policies, Townsend sought to negotiate an agreement that would allow him to go on disability, thereby reducing company overhead, while maintaining his insurance benefits until his death or age 65. Whether an agreement was reached between the parties, and its terms, is controverted. Mr. Townsend testified that his primary intent in going on disability was to maintain his benefits until he died or turned 65. To this end, he told DMJM’s president that he wanted to propose an alternateof short-term disability, he returned to work for one day and went on long-term disability as scheduled. As part of his agreement, Townsend was to work eight hours per week at home while on long-term disability. At first, Townsend reviewed company documents, but the flow of work slowed and eventually stopped. Townsend testified that he continued to ask for work. Regardless, it is not disputed that DMJM stopped sending work, though Townsend continued to bill his time and DMJM continued to pay him. In August 1996, Seelman told Townsend he did not know whether

The geniuses in the oil market thought all they had to do was build more pipelines out of Cushing Oklahoma and the glut of domestic oil was solved, not really taking into account the demand fundamentals of supply and demand. Just moving oil from one bottleneck to another bottleneck a few states over doesn`t address the core problems of oversupply and lack of economic demand to soak up additional supply globally with weak emerging markets and increased fuelA landslide swept through the outskirts of the western Japanese city of Hiroshima on Wednesday, killing at least 36 people. Seven people remain missing. Heavy rains had fallen in the area overnight. According to Japanese media, roughly 240 millimeters (9 inches), or the equivalent to the average rain fall for August, had fallen within 24 hours. "We haven't assessed the full extent [of the disaster] yet," a Hiroshima fire department spokesperson said, according to news agency AFP. Helicopters and rescue workers continued to dig through mud and stones on Wednesday where they believed more people to be trapped. Japanese media reported that a two-year-old boy and his 11-year-old brother had been killed when the landslide swept over their home.

Friday, March 27, 2009 People who truly care about cars regard the phrase fun-to-drive as three of the most coveted words in the automotive universe. And while that phrase has applied to the Mazda6 since its introduction back in 2002, a few other phrases, like comfortably spacious, smooth riding and universally handsome, didn’t apply in a way that most American shoppers found equally enticing. For 2009, all of that has changed. The first car in Mazda’s portfolio to be designed, engineered, developed and built in the United States, the 2009 Mazda6 is aimed squarely at the heart of the popularly priced mid-size sedan segment. In many ways, that is the most difficult segment in which to operate. One; it is the largest, most competitive segment and two; it is dominated by Toyotaby commercially sophisticated customers in similar circumstances. 7 By March 27, 1984, Fischer had made $112,125 in progress payments to OCY. Nonetheless, OCY, whose operations were financed by the Bank since 1979, was experiencing financial difficulties, particularly with its cash flow. To deal with this, in February 1984, the Bank consolidated two existing $100,000 loans to OCY into one loan. As guarantee for this new single obligation, OCY executed in favor of the Bank a promissory note for $200,000 and entered into a security agreement over four hulls in progress, including Fischer's sailboat hull. See Me.Rev.Stat.Ann. tit. 11, Secs. 9-101-113.

The city, after public hearings, passed a zoning ordinance classifying complainant's tract as residential. Complainant's petition for a re-zoning was refused, and suit was thereupon instituted to enjoin the city from interfering with complainant in mining and removing the clay. Complainant contended that sections 3091(1) to 3091(26) of the Code of 1936 were invalid because the title of the act did not express its purpose, or did not express a purpose to prohibit a lawful use of the land. Held: That this contention was without merit, as no general use of the land wasthe city by the extension of the limits. The city, after public hearings, passed a zoning ordinance classifying complainant's tract as residential.

Hacia las primeras horas del jueves 13 de marzo el temporal disminuyó. Al amanecer fue posible remolcar el Sofie Hosewinckel dentro del fiordo de Christianssand y encallarlo, semihundido como iba, en Odder Island, en donde pudo ser puesto a flote sin dificultad. Y en el momento de llegar esta crónica a la redacción, el armador del vapor, nuestro honrado conciudadano Jochum Hosewinckel, así como las esposas y madres de nuestros buenos marineros, estarán dando gracias en el fondo de sus corazones, después de haberlo hecho a Dios, a nuestra heroica joven por el salvamento delprincipio, las dos cosas fueron una sola, y su carrera de cantante una vocación. Pero llegó a dudar de que para su discípulo fuera así, que no hubiera acogido cualquier otra llamada del exterior con igual franqueza y candor, esperando inocentemente que, fuera a donde fuese, una banda de música saldría a recibirle. En una ocasión en que había cantado con voz especialmente suave y pura, pidió a Pellegrina una flauta con llaves de plata. Durante esos meses de trabajo y amor, en los que confería a su discípulo la inmortalidad, Pellegrina se hizo intemporal.

UPS directed plaintiff and the other supervisors, who were his peers, to do what they could to insure that his eight-hour work restriction was honored. 7 Plaintiff's peers in the on-call air service routinely worked more than eight hour days. Also, because of the nature of the overnight delivery business, there were often occasions when the driver whom plaintiff was accompanying would be dispatched to make extra pickups before returning to the airport at the end of a shift. Most of the time McAdams directed the driver to return him to the work station, then go on and do the pickup without him. This procedure was exactly what UPS had directed, and plaintiff had full authority to implement it because the drivers were his subordinates and thedispatchers were his peers. However, on several occasions plaintiff apparently felt that he was not in a position to demand this accommodation because of the exigencies of the particular situation. On these occasions, he worked over eight hours total. The district court found that there were seven occasions in 1991 and one in 1992 when McAdams worked over eight hours. After learning about the 1991 overtime incidents, plaintiff's immediate supervisors again told him to direct his drivers to return him to the airport rather than keeping him late, and they reiterated their directive to plaintiff's peers not to overdispatch him. 8 Notwithstanding the occasions on which he worked more than eight hours, plaintiff did not report flareups of his MS to anyone at UPS.

On December 28, 1971, the United States of America (the United States) filed an application seeking water rights in connection with the following: (1) the West Divide Project; (2) the Dallas Creek Project; (3) the Fruitland Mesa Project; (4) the Upper Gunnison Project; (5) the Uncompahgre Extension Project; (6) the Grand Mesa Project; and (7) the Uncompahgre Valley Project. The application was filed in Water Division No. 4. The Uncompahgre Extension Project was subsequently renamed "the Dominguez Reservoir Project." On July 2, 1973, the United States filed an amended application and statements of claims. The United States sought to establish the above-mentionedrights in addition to other rights at issue in separate application proceedings.[1] The United States also *793 sought to modify the priority dates of some of the water rights. On November 2, 1987, the United States executed an assignment of its application for conditional water rights for the Dominguez Reservoir Project to the Colorado River Water Conservation District.[2] Approximately two years later, on January 23, 1989, the Colorado River Water Conservation District assigned the application for conditional rights back to the United States. On April 26, 1989, the United States assigned its application for conditional water rights regarding the Dominguez Reservoir Project to the City of Grand Junction.

Mahela, Herath rested from ODIs Sri Lanka have rested Mahela Jayawardene and Rangana Herath from the three-ODI series against Bangladesh, which follows the two Twenty20 internationals later this month. They also left out batsmen Dimuth Karunaratne and Lahiru Thirimanne from the one-day squad that played Pakistan in the UAE, and brought in spinning allrounder Angelo Perera, who made 244 off 204 balls in his most recent first-class game. Mahela had also missed the limited-overs games in the UAE in December last year because he was on paternal leave. Both Mahela and Herath will be available for the two Twenty internationals that precede the ODIs, though, subject to the state of Herath's injured knee, which has put him in severe doubt for the second Test. These Twenty20s are Sri Lanka's lastofficial matches before the World Twenty20 March. Angelo Perera was also included in the T20 squad, while the players to miss out from the group that travelled to UAE were Ramith Rambukwella, Thirimanne and Kithuruwan Vithanage.

Yugoslav ship was sinking and its Bilderberger saboteurs were grabbing the last life boats. The West was quick to blame Yugoslavia’s economic woes on the ills of socialism, while the CIA began to sew ethnic division in country. The global powers wanted to smash socialist Yugoslavia into tiny fiefdoms modeled after their GCC puppet emirates. The US organized the Balkan Stability Pact, which called for a regional free market while CIA-backed Croat and Muslim separatists called for armed revolt. [619] For forty-five years the US had played the ethnicity card in the Balkans, a region traditionally colonized by Western powers. During WWII 20 million people died in the Balkans, most at the hands of Nazi-armed right-wing paramilitaries like the Croat Utashe. Their victims were largely Serbian, Jewish and communist. Now theUS was, for propaganda purposes, dumbing their resource grab down to an ethnic skirmish. The US media picked the winners, siding with the wealthier Croats and Muslims, while demonizing the generally working-class socialist Serbs. The US justified its support for Muslim and Croat separatists by accusing the Yugoslav Army of ethnic cleansing. Though there were plenty of Muslims and Croats in that Yugoslav Army, the US spin machine collectively bludgeoned the Serbian people. An August 17, 1992 Newsweek article finally admitted that, “Most of the horror stories (attributed to Serbs) are impossible to confirm.” Even the US puppet International War Crimes Tribunal in the Hague charged Croat and Muslim leaders with genocide as often as it did Serbs.

William engdahl 9 Aug 2016 Much has been written on the July 15 failed coup attempt in Turkey. The Erdogan government has pointed to the exiled Fethullah Gülen sitting in Saylorsburg, Pennsylvania, and formally requested his extradition to face charges in Turkish courts. Washington so far refuses. As a massive nationwide investigation by police and security forces continues inside Turkey, new damning details emerge almost daily that point to the key role of the CIA behind their Fethullah Gülen Movement (termed FETÖ for Fethullah Terrorist Organization in Turkish) and the US military. Now the Turkish media reportsBethlehem, Pennsylvania, conveniently, a mere 26 miles or 30 minute drive via PA-33 from Saylorsburg, home of the exiled Fethullah Gülen. According to the Istanbul Yeni Safak paper, on the July 15 night of the coup Henri Barkey and a group of seventeen others, mostly foreigners, met for hours in a locked room in the Splendid Palas hotel on the tourist Princes’ Island outside Istanbul and reportedly followed coup developments on TV amid their closed-door talks, according to testimony of hotel personnel. The paper cites a source from Istanbul Police’s Intelligence, Counter Terror, Cyber Crime and Criminal Units, who reported that Barkey was holding a meeting at the hotel with 17 top figures, most of them foreign nationals, on July 15, the day of the failed coup attempt in

worsen, this thorny issue may again heat up. Turkey blundered into Syria’s civil war soon after it erupted in March, 2011. Ankara allowed Syrian insurgent groups, funded and armed by Saudi Arabia, France, Britain, the US and Qatar, to operate from its soil. CIA established an important logistics and communications base for the insurgents at the US air base at Incirlik, Turkey. US, British and French special forces based in Turkey discreetly joined in the war to overthrow the Assad regime in Damascus — all part of Washington’s undeclared but very real and intensifying multi-dimensional war against Iran, Syria’s closest ally. Each passing day of Syria’s brutal civil war raises the risk that Turkey will send its armed forces into Syria, either to create so-called "civilian corridors"or no-fly zones toground the Assad regime’s air force. All-out NATO intervention led by the US could occur after American presidential elections. Meanwhile, the besieged Assad regime in Damascus has lost control of a northern border region inhabited by 2 million ethnic Kurds who have become autonomous. Ankara, which faces a virtual independent Kurdish state in northern Iraq and its own long-simmering uprising by its Kurdish minority, is deeply alarmed by the specter of Kurdish nationalism. The war in Syria has accentuated Turkey’s serious Kurdish problem. This writer covered the Turkish — Kurdish conflict in eastern Anatolia a decade ago, in which over 40,000 had died by 1992 alone. Turkey thought it had put an end to the Kurdish PKK insurgency by capturing its leader, Abdullah Ocalan, in 1999. The PKK’s main base

Among those crimes, Cohen admitted to facilitating $130,000 in hush money payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels during the 2016 campaign. Cohen has said he did so at the direction of Mr Trump.

scripture Scripture not found. CHAPTER 36 Regeneration of the Land.1As for you, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel and say: Mountains of Israel, hear the word of the LORD! 2Thus says the Lord GOD: Because the enemy said about you, “Ha! the ancient heights have become our possession,” 3therefore prophesy and say: Thus says the Lord GOD: because you have been ridiculed and hounded on all sides for becoming a possession for the remaining nations and have become a byword and a popular jeer,a4therefore, mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD: Thus says the Lord GOD to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys, to the desolate ruins and abandoned cities, plundered and mocked by the nations remaining around you:b5therefore thus says the Lord GOD:nations. You will never again endure insults from the peoples. Never again shall you rob your nation of its children—oracle of the Lord GOD. Regeneration of the People.16The word of the LORD came to me: 17Son of man, when the house of Israel lived in its land, they defiled it with their behavior and their deeds. In my sight their behavior was like the impurity of a woman in menstruation.h18So I poured out my fury upon them for the blood they poured out on the ground and for the idols with which they defiled it. 19I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through other lands; according to their behavior and their deeds I carried out judgment against them.i20* But when they came to the nations, where they went,

takes the form of a split ring having a bent wire base opposite the split. Radially extending wires project from the ring and are bent on their outer ends to provide a physical barrier to the animals. A small spring applied to the base area of the guard urges the ring closed at the split. The electrostatic animal guard is applied to an insulator bushing by pushing the split onto one of the neck areas of the insulator. The split construction of the ring allows it to open in order to slip onto the insulator, while the spring then assures that the split closes up to retain the animal guard in place. Although this type of animal guard has functioned in a satisfactory manner for the most part, safetyeven as his own State Department sought to push through a disastrous pipeline project that is critical to the continued economic viability of the climate-destroying tar-sands mining project in Canada’s arctic region. Plenty of bills like this and worse — including acts of war like the invasion of Iraq in 2003 — have been orchestrated by lobbyists or presidential advisors with dual US/Israeli citizenship, like the America Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and Paul Wolfowitz respectively. Wolfowitz, a former assistant secretary of defense and a former US ambassador (to Indonesia) despite his divided loyalty to the US and Israel as a dual citizen, was acknowledged to have been the “prime architect” of the disastrous US invasion of Iraq, by no less an insider than former Bush Defense Department Secretary

(including three who were lost in childhood), they were born in Cheneyville, Louisiana and raised in nearby Loyd Bridge on the banks of Bayou Boeuf, in a place named, ironically enough, Compromise Plantation. Their father- my great-grandfather and a man I’ve only known through family folklore as “Daddy Sam”- farmed cotton, 800 acres of land that he leased and subleased to African-American sharecroppers. Truth be told, Daddy Sam was also, in the strictest sense of the term, a “sharecropper;” he never owned his land or his home. The “compromise” was complicated. I mention all of this for a reason. When I was in the fourth grade, along with my autographed textbook, Aunt Sue also gave me the first of many copies of the book 12 Years a Slave, andperhaps knowing that it was heavy reading for an elementary school student, she spoiled it and told me the story in her own words. Sue, a history professor, spent most of her career researching and editing 12 Years a Slave. Her name appears in bold block letters at the top of the book’s cover; the author’s name, Solomon Northup, appears in bolder letters below. Sue loved telling Solomon Northup’s story. She knew it was riveting and important, and after first encountering the book when she was only twelve years old, she spent the next seventy-eight years of her life chasing it down. Sue’s children affectionately refer to Solomon as their “brother,” which seems appropriate. After all, they grew up with him. Today, because of Steve McQueen’s film adaptation, the world

Her informant's name and address was unknown to Margaret Buckler as hereinafter set out in these findings. "She immediately informed the Respondent of this conversation and over the Thanksgiving vacation of that year, they obtained a marriage license in Harrison County, Indiana. "On December 29, 1969, David Evrard and Margaret Buckler were married in Harrison County, Indiana, by the Respondent's Brother who is, and was at that time, a Roman Catholic Priest. "The Respondent had never been married prior to his marriage of December 29th, 1969. "From a period of time prior to his making application for a marriage license in Harrison County, Indiana, in November of 1969,and until a time subsequent to his marriage on December 29, 1969, the Respondent believed that Lawrence Raley Buckler was, in fact, dead, even though he did nothing to verify the information he received from Margaret Ann. "Subsequent to the marriage, Margaret Evrard received information that caused her to believe that there was the possibility that Lawrence Buckler was alive, and conveyed such information to Respondent. "The Respondent made inquiries of the Department of Defense and some time later learned that Buckler was in fact alive.

This finding is based upon: (1) Respondent's Thanksgiving and Christmas visits to Tell City in 1969; (2) Political visits, including caucuses with party leaders and public announcement of candidacy, during the months of January, February, and March, 1970; (3) Respondent's testimony that he made up his mind to run for the office in early January,1970; (4) Respondent's testimony and that of his friend who was a realtor, that respondent consulted him about finding the respondent a home in Tell City, sometime in early January, 1970. The majority apparently finds these actions sufficient to show that respondent's intent to remove was unequivocally formed, and a fixed settlement at Tell City was resolved upon with no present intention of returning to Falls Church, Virginia. See State ex rel. White v. Scott, supra. The majority finds that the above evidence is sufficient to rebut the presumption that respondent's residence in Falls Church, Virginia continued as of March 16, 1970. See Green, supra. The record does not sustain this conclusion. Before setting out that portion of the record which demonstrates that respondent's plans to return to Tell City had

and never worked for Moreco. In February of 1984, Pierce dissolved PWOS and distributed the proceeds. Following the asset purchase, Moreco ran PWOS's collection network in essentially the same manner as PWOS had run it, with many of the same employees, collection routes and trucks, except that it redirected the end point of the network to its McCook facility. Moreco did not immediately remove PWOS's name from the PWOS oil collection trucks transferred to it as part of the asset purchase transaction, and the PWOS name *637 remained on receipts, insurance policies, and in state regulatory agency paperwork for a few years. Id. Moreco also hired Martin Pierce, former PWOS owner and president Jack Pierce's son, to run daily operations of a portion of the acquired PWOS network. He subsequentlywas elected to Moreco's board of directors several years after the sale. Id. However, the toxic waste oil Mexico Feed tanks were never used by Moreco; Moreco did not know of their existence until the EPA brought them to the company's attention at some point in time during the year after the asset purchase transaction was consummated. Id. After inspecting the Mexico Feed tanks, the EPA sued Mexico Feed and its president, James Covington, as owners of the land, PWOS and its owner Jack Pierce, as owners of the tanks, and Moreco, as the successor of PWOS. After the district court held Moreco jointly liable with PWOS under a theory of successor liability, Moreco appealed. The Eighth Circuit reversed.

stock. By accepting new equity instead of a partial cash payment for its old shares, management would increase its ownership stake in the company. Coupled with an amendment to FMC's charter requiring a supermajority to authorize certain business combinations, management would have much greater control of the corporation's destiny. In addition, by borrowing to finance the cash payment to public shareholders, the company would inject approximately $2 billion worth of debt into its capital structure. This debt infusion would make the corporation less attractive to a hostile bidder. 9 After deciding to recapitalize, FMC retained Goldman to help it consummate the transaction. Under the parties' written retainer agreement, Goldman agreed to keep confidential FMC's recapitalization plans and all information disclosed by FMC in connection withit. Goldman promised to disclose information about "Project Chicago," as the recapitalization was called, only to its agents, employees, and counsel who needed to know the information. In return for Goldman's services, FMC agreed to pay Goldman $17.5 million if and only if the recapitalization was consummated. With that sum as an incentive, Goldman began working on the terms of the recapitalization. 10 In early 1986, Goldman's Brown, although he was not a member of the Goldman "team" working with FMC, learned of "Project Chicago." More faithful to the illegal-trading foursome's agreement than to his employer, Brown passed the confidential information concerning FMC's consideration of a recapitalization to Sokolow, who passed it to Levine, who passed it to Boesky.

document called Supplemental Agreement No. 2, which was dated June 20, 1946 but was probably not executed until the early part of 1947 when the Government was preparing to surrender the lease and return the property to the owners. The property was actually surrendered on or about April 21, 1947. The Supplemental Agreement No. 2 made no real change in the rights or obligations of the parties to the assignments. It provided for the substitution in the lease of the names of the purchasers in place of the names of the sellers of the land; and that the rental up to June 30, 1946 should be paid to the sellers, and thereafter to the plaintiffs; and that the sellers should release the Government from allliability for damages to the land prior to June 3, 1946. The Shannons on their part accepted all the terms of the original lease and the document was signed by the sellers, the purchasers and officers of the Government. Appended to the agreement was a separate statement, signed only by the Shannons, in which they released the Government from all liability for the restoration of the premises except that the release should not apply to any claim for damages which the Shannons might have for injury to the timber, fencing, digging of holes, &c. by the United States. 32 It will be noticed that the claims against the Government had been assigned long before the supplemental agreement was executed and that the government officers had no share in

by placing an advertisement in the Federal Times describing himself as a former administrative law judge and stating that he provided nationwide representation, without the statement required by paragraph (6). According to Count Four, on April 7, 1995, Banks sent to the Federal Times a letter printed on letterhead stationery that violated Order # 18 in the same fashion. Count Five alleged that, while representing Stephen Spencer between January 13, 1995, and January 6, 1996, Banks did not comply with paragraph (7). And Count Six charged that on December 4, 1995, he violated paragraphs (3), (4), (6) and (7) by describing himself as a former administrative law judge, stating that he provided nationwide representation, and not obtaining the initials of his client, Deborah Gudger, acknowledging the disclaimer whilehe represented her before an administrative agency. Following a non-jury trial, Judge Levie found Banks guilty of criminal contempt of court for Counts One, Two, Three, Four, and Six, and not guilty of Count Five. In subsequently denying his motion for release pending sentence, the judge stated that this conduct amounted to "conscious actions taken by [Banks] to ignore the Court's order and to deliberately ... foster to the public the impression that he was an attorney and/or a former judge." Judge Levie then sentenced Banks to concurrent prison terms of 178 days, which he suspended in favor of five years' probation on conditions that included compliance with the injunction. In August 1997, after a hearing, the judge revoked the probation on finding repeated violations of the conditions and sentenced

1 Machabees 3 (3:1-5) Judas Machabeus replaced his father (Mathathias) as the leader of the Jewish terrorists. His first act was to burn "them that troubled his people" (with fire). (3:1) "His [Mathathias'] son Judas, called Machabeus, rose up in his stead." (3:2) "And all his brethren helped him, and all they that had joined themselves to his father, and they fought with cheerfulness the battle of Israel." (3:4) "He was like a lion, and like a lion's whelp roaring for his prey." (3:5) "He pursued the wicked ... and them that troubled his people he burnt with fire." (3:8) "He went through the cities of Juda, and destroyed the wicked out of them." (3:9) "He was renowned even to the utmost part of the earth." OK. That's a bit of an exaggeration. (3:10-12) Judas killed Apollonius andkilled many in his army. (3:10) "Apollonius gathered together the Gentiles, and a numerous and great army from Samaria, to make war against Israel." (3:11) "Judas ... went forth to meet him: and he overthrew him, and killed him: and many fell down slain." (3:12) "And he took their spoils, and Judas took the sword of Apollonius, and fought with it all his lifetime." (3:13-22) Seron, the captain of the Syrian army, heard about Judas (as had everyone on earth). He collected a large army of wicked men to fight Judas. When Judas' smaller army saw the Syrians, they were frightened. But Judas told them not to worry. Because success in war depends not on numbers, but on God. "The Lord himself will overthrow them."

Shoney's Big Boy Restaurants, thus emphasizing an independent "Shoney's" operation and diverse "Big Boy" operations. By emphasizing "Shoney's Big Boy Restaurants", as it did in its advertising, Shoney's has identified itself as the source of the services. 33 The district court's view of the commercial strength of the "Big Boy" mark is supported by the record. That the "Big Boy" mark is a weak service-origin mark is demonstrated by Frisch's own survey. For example, in Bowling Green, Kentucky [Frisch's territory], nearly 30% of the respondents identified "Jerry's", a local restaurant chain, as a "Big Boy Restaurant"; in Louisville the percentage was over 30%. In addition, the evidence indicated that Shoney's emphasized its own name in its advertisement of the Big Boy restaurants; in billboard's,"Shoney's" and "Big Boy" should be considered as identical; the district judge observed that the identity, in the public mind, of "Shoney's" and "Big Boy" reflected the ultimate issue of consumer confusion. In putative rebuttal, on appeal Frisch's argues that the district court should have considered the two marks in their commercial context: 36 The entire thrust of FRISCH'S complaint is that the "Shoney's" and "Big Boy" service marks ... have become linked in the mind of a sizeable segment of the population in Defendant's licensed territories into which Defendant's reputation has spread. Viewing the marks in isolation and out of the context of their use over 25 years of course leads to the conclusion that the marks are "very dissimilar." However, such an

One wigwam was for Matthews, another for Jemmy, and a third for York and Fuegia. York told me that Jemmy's brother was "very much friend," that the country was "very good land," and that he wished to stay with Jemmy and Matthews. A small plot of ground was selected near the wigwams, and, during our stay, dug, planted and sowed with potatoes, carrots, turnips, beans, peas, lettuce, onions, leeks, and cabbages.

"Ashi, Ashi, come here!" she calls. The puppy is black. Neshat's apartment is white — white floors, white bookshelves and a long, white leather couch. Black and white defines much of Neshat's work. Her photographs capture the stark contrast between women in long black chadors and men in crisp white cotton shirts. Neshat left Iran as a teenager in 1974 to attend school in Los Angeles. She did not return until 1990. "When I went to Iran, I was not an artist yet," Neshat says modestly. In truth, she'd been deeply involved in the art world. After studying painting at the University of California, Berkeley, sheco-ran a well-regarded nonprofit space for art, architecture and design in New York.

to display static images or simple looping patterns, had been transformed into a fully interactive game of Pong by Drexel computer science professor (and Co-Founder and Co-Director of Drexel's game design program) Frank Lee and his team in just a few short months. It's being billed by the event organizers as the "world's largest video game." But the time spent developing the game was just a small part of Lee's journey, which spans five years and involves just as much lobbying as it did hacking. We talked to Lee and his team about what it takes to port a game to an office building, and then we traveled down to Philly to try the 437-foot-high game of Pong for ourselves. Selling the game "I initially thought of the idea in 2008,"Lee told Ars. "I was driving down at night, and saw the sparkling lights at the Cira Centre. The LED lights at the Cira Centre are built-in as part of the structure of the building. Every other night I would just pass by it, but this night I saw Tetris shapes forming in my mind's eye, falling down, and that began this long journey to try to make this game possible." The first thing Lee needed to do was get buy-in from the Brandywine Realty Trust, the company that actually owns the Cira Centre. He had no contacts at the organization, but after much networking and many months of persistence finally managed to secure a meeting with a mid-level executive.
