In accordance with CPL 200.70, the court properly amended the indictment to replace the errant date with the one reflected in the grand jury minutes, as well as in the bill of particulars and defendant's pretrial motions. THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT. ENTERED: OCTOBER 13, 2016 CLERK Maggie Angst Milwaukee Journal Sentinel A Milwaukee police officer was one of two people killed in a northwest side shooting Saturday that police characterized as "domestic violence related." The shooting occurred in the 9600 block of W. Goodrich Ave. at 2 p.m., police said. A 47-year-old male, who was a Milwaukee Police Department employee, was shot in the residence and died at the scene, police said. A 38-year-old female was shot and taken to a local hospital where she died from her injuries. Neighbors said the dead man was a Milwaukee police officer. Milwaukee police said they are not seeking any suspects. "The circumstances are still being determined and the investigation is ongoing," police said in a statement. The Milwaukee Police Association addressed the shooting in a Facebookpost Saturday night. Earlier Saturday, Milwaukee police investigated a homicide

But Mansour J. Arbabsiar, 56, the man at the center of an alleged Iranian plot to kill a Saudi diplomat in Washington, seems to have been more a stumbling opportunist than a calculating killer. Over the 30-odd years he lived in Texas, he left a string of failed businesses and angry creditors in his wake, and an embittered ex-wife who sought a protective order against him. He was perennially disheveled, friends and acquaintances said, and hopelessly disorganized. Mr. Arbabsiar, now in custody in New York, stands accused by federal prosecutors of running a global terrorist plot that stretched from Mexico to Tehran, and that was directed by the Quds Force of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards. Many of his old friends and associates in Texas seemed stunned at the news, notwhich, despite its successes had a long way to go in addressing some challenges. “The State road map will have quantifiable milestones to achieve the targets,” said Nayak.

Talks with Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi come just a week after Mr Trump struck a surprise deal with Democrats on the US debt ceiling. The White House said the president "wants to move America forward". Speaking earlier, Mr Trump said his main goal was to cut taxes for the middle class and enhance job growth. There is broad agreement that the US tax code - which runs to thousands of pages - needs to be simplified.

Scrum-half Steele, aged 20, is in his third year at Leicester Tigers, while 21-year-old back-row forward Gilsenan is currently on loan at Connacht from Leinster until the end of the season. Steele captained the Leicester side that finished runners-up in last summer's Premiership Rugby 7s final, but has found his first-team chances few and far between at the club. After joining Tigers academy from Dumfries Vikings in 2011, his first season ended with a debut in an LV= Cup semi-final victory over Bath and his first Premiership appearance against Newcastle. Last season, however, he

Norwood to the Ivy Hill Cemetery, robbed and bound him, and then beat him to death. Williams later took the stand in his own defense and pinned the murder on Draper and another individual, Michael Hopkins. The jury rejected Williams' testimony *202 and returned a conviction for first degree murder, robbery, and conspiracy. The trial's penalty phase began immediately after the jury announced its verdict.[2] The Commonwealth introduced evidence that Williams was recently convicted of armed robbery and third degree murder. Williams, in turn, presented three witnesses in mitigation. His mother, Patricia Kemp, described her son's athletic success and testified that he was well-liked and respected by those who knew him. She also characterized Williams' stepfather as a verbally abusive alcoholic who routinely berated her son and once pushedcontesting the jury's death sentence almost from the moment it was announced on February 4, 1986. Shortly after trial, he dismissed Panarella and obtained new counsel, Norris Gelman. Gelman promptly filed a motion for a new trial on ineffective assistance of counsel grounds. On April 24 and July 1, 1987, the trial court held hearings on the motion during which Panarella was called to the stand to provide testimony on his mitigation strategy. He indicated that his central focus was Williams' youth, which he believed to be the mitigating factor most applicable under § 9711 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes. Panarella also explained that Williams provided him little, if any, assistance, which frustrated efforts to present a strong cadre of character witnesses on the defendant's behalf. Finally, when

damage award, it is only logical that the general damage award must also be reduced. After reviewing the record, I believe the highest reasonable award for general damages to the plaintiff, who suffered no physical damage, has neither sought nor received psychiatric care or psychological counseling and who has been awarded the entire financial compensation suggested by her own economist, is $150,000. Finally, I believe a reduction in the general damage award warrants a reduction in the awards for punitive damages and attorney's fees. ORDER ON REHEARING GRANTED IN PART: The application for rehearing is granted only to correct the calculation regarding the final figures of the amended damage award. In all other respects, the rehearing application is denied. The following is the correction of the calculation of the amended damage award: GeneralAs a tornado bore down on a densely populated area of Dallas on Sunday night, the local NBC station waited several minutes before breaking into the telecast of the Dallas Cowboys' home game against the Philadelphia Eagles, the station admitted Monday during an apology to viewers.

The son of a noted filmmaker, Hammid started in gem photography at the Gemological Institute of America, where he worked as a staff photographer from 1980 to 1982. The next year, he began a 25-year association with writer David Federman, supplying photos for Modern Jeweler’s monthly Gem Profile column. Together, they won two Jesse H. Neal awards from American Business Media. “I always felt Tino was the Richard Avedon of gem photography,” says Federman. “He didn’t take pictures, he took portraits. Colored stones ‘sat’ for him the way celebrities sat for Avedon. Someday they’ll honor Tino as a pioneer of gem and jewelry portraiture with an exhibition of his work.” His work later appeared in catalogs for Christie’s and in The Handbook of Gemmology.

August ‘93 Layne Redmond‘s first CD recorded in 1994, Remixed in Brazil in 2011 Fall 2012 Release THE NEW YORK REVIEW OF RECORDS Surpassing her work with frame drum master Glen Velez, Redmond leads a group of softhand percussionists in ritualistic pieces on her powerful debut. Sacred instruments are gracefully employed: wind chimes, Tibetan singing bowls, and subtle frame drumming. Indian Classical master musicians, bamboo flutist Steve Gorn, and Vicki Richards enrich the work. But the piece de resistance is the eerie, candle-flickering Indian vocals of Amitava Chatterjee on “Breath of the Sun.” Dee Dee Finney – Summer ‘93 Inspired over a decade ago by her introduction to the frame drum to which she is now dedicated, Layne has gathered a group of mostly women together to revive the ancient Mediterranean/North African/Middle Easterntradition of women's ceremonial drumming among goddess worshipping societies. Her compositions, and their arrangements are pure genius; the instruments speak in torrents of rhythm and meaning, communicating ancient stories which will stir remembrances in the listener. This album is simply the most honest and respectful recording of women's ritual music we've ever listened to, not to be missed. Highly recommended!'94 Reviving the ancient Mediterranean traditions of womens ceremonial drumming and ritual celebration, Redmond and her Mob of Angels play a whole variety of frame drums along with Tibetan singing bowls and the occasional flute. The result is a distinctively feminine sense of the drum which is ancient and powerful.

The film was released in December 1997, and was a huge hit financially, netting over $100 million at the box office: but critically, it was panned, and was nominated for no less than seven awards at the 1999 Golden Raspberry Awards, where the girls collectively won the award for “Worst Actress”.

The Political Correctness movement is a good example of this phenomena. "PC," the brainchild of the liberal left, has been part of the American scene for some time. The PC movement is based on a philosophy that the society we live in was shaped by those in power, and they did it to retain control. The philosophy further believes that, in the process of shaping society to retain control, portions of society have been oppressed. Somehow the PC movement and the gender feminist movement have overlapped. In fact at times it is difficult to separate the two -- they both hold men responsible for the oppression of

And down under, Australia's most well-known megachurch, Hillsong Church, just wrapped up its annual five-day conference, drawing together over 26,000 Christians from all around the world. There were 19 different denominations from 68 countries attending the Hillsong conference, and major issues that were to be dealt with by all of them included AIDS and poverty in Africa, accordingto opening remarks by Gary Skinner, leader of Kampala Pentecostal Church and founder of Watoto Child Care Ministries. But, as Hillsong pastor Brian Houston pointed out, the church has always been concerned for justice and the well-being of everyone. "God tells us that standing against injustice and speaking up for the disenfranchised is the responsibility of every Christian," said Houston at the event. But for some, such as the National Baptist Convention USA, Inc., the nation's largest African American religious organization, issues such as HIV/AIDS have only begun to reach the spotlight. Last month, the Nashville-based Baptist body for the first time placed HIV/AIDS on the agenda of its annual Congress of Christian Education. Greater involvement in the HIV/AIDS fight was also on the agenda this year for larger denominations, such as the

He testified that he left the farm at 11:30 p.m. on July 30 and drove to New York, arriving in the Albany area at 9:45 a.m. the following day. On July 31 at 3:00 p.m., a New York sheriff, John Demartino, interviewed appellant in Saratoga County. Appellant told Demartino *641 that earlier that day in a telephone call to his brother in Texas he learned that Carole had been shot with a .38 pistol.

Appellant was taken to the Saratoga County jail where he was processed, required to empty his pockets and remove his clothes. Demartino observed several "heavy" scratches on appellant's right shoulder, upper arm and rib cage. A smaller scratch was on his face. The scratches appeared to Demartino to be "fresh marks," with redness and without scabs.

"When we started, we did not know if these tapes still existed," Nagihara says. "We spent a couple of years interviewing people who were involved in the Apollo program and going through the memos and reports from that period." As Lipuma's blog post details, the researchers finally discovered that NASA had created a separate set of tapes, specifically for archiving. Eventually they located 440 of the tapes, covering a period from April through June 1975, gathering dust at the Washington National Records Center in Suitland, Maryland, a part of the National Archives which stores records from various federal agencies.

That enabled them to reconstruct temperature readings for gaps in the tapes from January through March 1975 and July 1975 through February 1976, the point at which the probes were near the end of their life cycle, according to Lipuma's blog post. When the researchers analyzed the data, they found that the probes that were closer to the surface showed the temperature rising more quickly and higher than deeper-buried probes. That indicated that the heat actually started at the surface, rather than beneath it.

proving the claim rests with the claimant. Vallone, 644 S.W.2d at 459. The burden of securing a finding also rests with the claimant. Id. Owen testified that Accu-Tech was worth $30,500 at the time of trial. His income tax returns showed an accumulated net profit of about $35,000 for the last five fiscal years before the divorce. He admitted to several cash disbursements from company funds during the marriage, from which the judge could have inferred that the community was inadequately compensated, including a 1995 personal loan of $22,500 to an acquaintance and several disbursements to his adult sons by a prior marriage. Frances's testimony also demonstrated that Owen provided her with very little money to pay the mortgage and other household expenses during the marriage. During Owen's attorney's cross-examination of Frances, three checks Owen wrote to Frances that sheat Bitmain has been locked in leadership wrangles for years now. This is according to a new revealing report, which illustrates an escalation of tensions between co-founders Jihan Wu and Micree Zhan. On Tuesday, Zhan was ousted as executive director at the company by Wu. Staff at the firm also received a bellicose statement warning them against interacting with the exiled leader. A leaked transcript of an internal meeting shows that the company had in the past missed growth opportunities due to disagreements. According to Wu, internal divisions caused The Bank of Beijing to retract a credit offer, which could have been used to clear its books. This subsequently caused problems with suppliers. The SEC, which is mandated to protect investor interests, will likely look at such issues in its determination. A

Independence Days – he and I would get to the Pennsylvania State University campus (where I teach) around noon, and I would not see him again until 8pm, as he navigated his various appointments (music lessons), hangings-out at the Hub (the student centre), and travels downtown. He had long since come to terms with the fact that he cannot drive a car, and had become capable of getting himself around on municipal buses (for which he keeps a stash of tokens) and Penn State shuttles (which are free).

Janet and I said no, on the grounds that he very possibly could take himself on the 1 train from Columbus Circle to 103rd Street, but would have no idea how to get from the 103rd Street station to Trevor’s apartment.

But Levin's staff claim that a senior tax official at the company previously testified under oath, after receiving a subpoena from the committee, that there was no business advantage to the arrangement other than tax avoidance. The congressional investigation was sparked by a whistleblower who sued Caterpillar in 2011 for demoting him, allegedly after he raised internal concerns about the practice. The company eventually settled out of court with the whistleblower, Daniel Schlicksup, who was a global tax strategy manager for Caterpillar from 2005 to 2008.

“Mr. Mixie, what?” He just couldn’t figure out that it was Mister MixyZipitlik. Many rock fans experienced a similar moment of weirdness in the early seventies when they first encountered an album from ‘Lynyrd Skynyrd’, the first band to use no vowels in their name. The presence of the quasi-vowel ‘y’ made it a little easier. Still the name evoked a lot of curiosity. The band had to issue a clarification that Lynyrd Skynyrd was a mock tribute to their teacher Leonard Skinner, who with his strict policy against long hair, drove their lead guitarist to drop out of school. The boy band NSYNC took the ‘no vowel movement’ one step further and capitalised their letters in 1995, thereby triggering off an avalanche of ugliness. Musicians with little talent decidedto elaborate. Tungsten, the metal used in mobile phones, circuit boards, rock drills, planes, cars and trains, was discovered by the Elhuyar brothers in 1783. Platinum, the precious metal behind jewellery, catalytic converters, pacemakers and magnets, is yet again a contribution of Spanish ingenuity. Three of the foodie universe favourites – Tacos, Nachos, and Burritos – have their roots to people or things from the land of the Tomatino festival. ‘Nachos’ is named after Ignacio Anaya, a Mexican restaurateur who cut tortillas into triangles, fried and served them with shredded cheese and jalapeno peppers when he couldn’t locate his cook to serve some American military officers. ‘Tacos’ is derived from an old custom of miners to wrap paper around gunpowder to use as explosive charges.

New Figures Reveal 300 Terror Arrests In Last Year News 6 December 2018 Figures reveal the use of police powers relating to terrorism has exceeded 300 arrests, with 17 attack plots foiled in the year ending September 2018. There were 317 arrests for terrorism-related activity in the year ending 30 September 2018, a decrease of 31% compared with the 462 arrests in the previous year. The fall is partly due to a relatively large number of arrests in the previous reporting year in the wake of terrorist attacks in London and Manchester. Although the number of arrests has fallen, it is still relatively high when compared with other recent years. There has been an increase in those suspected of terrorism related offences being taken into custody, with the figure rising to over 220to Nassau, both neutral ports within the definitions of neutrality furnished by the international law.

Mormon History for the Masses Tag Archives: Joseph Smith In this important episode, Russell Stevenson sits down with historian Brian Hales, author of the three-volume series,Joseph Smith and Polygamy. We talk about the concept of “dynastic marriage,” sexuality in Joseph Smith’s plural marriages, and the Women Who Told Joseph Smith “No.” Hales offers his own feelings and concerns about polygamy and helps Saints navigate their way through the confusing–and ambiguous–documentary trail. Listen in! It is the foundational event of Mormonism–or at least that is what it became. Beginning in 1832, Joseph Smith began to publicly talk about a visionary experience he had in a grove of trees nearby his home in upstate New York. However, what he told audiences differed from year-to-year in what feels to be substantial detail.

The video was taken the morning of December 26th about 3:00AM. The man there in the toboggan used a brick to break through the window of Jenny's Fashion on Haley Street. He spent nearly an hour trying to get through the burglars bars of the business. He's later joined by his lookout who comes over to help out. At one point, the store owner says some ladies walking down the street actually stopped to talk to the lookout but didn't bother to report the crime to police.

Friday, 31 July 2009 The latest vehicle casualty, whom we speculated could have been riding in a Jackal, turns out to have been the driver of a Scimitar – one of the CVR(T) series (pictured after a mine strike). This was Trooper Phillip Lawrence of the Light Dragoons, who was killed on 27 July while part of a patrol in Lashkar Gah district, helping to ensure the security of an area cleared earlier as part of Operation Panther's Claw. As a light tank, procured for reconnaissance duties, this vehicle is very lightly armoured and provides little protection to IEDs and mines. Thus, like much of the other equipment fielded by the Army in Afghanistan, it is far from optimal. That certainly is the view of Patrick Mercer, who has told a localLancashire paper that the vehicle is "hopeless". Despite it still looking quite modern it is considerably aging and outdated, he says, arguing that the forces need new a generation of armoured vehicles "to better protect our troops." From there, however, the gallant Mercer seems to go off the rails. The Scimitars, he says, "were due to be replaced by a Fres System - Future Rapid Response System - a few years ago but this was abandoned as it was too expensive." The man, of course, means the Future Rapid Effects System, which, "as the replacement programme," he adds, "foundered due to mismanagement acquisition by the armed forces." We are now left, he claims, "with a generation of older vehicles badly needing incremental improvements." Here, Mercer seems to be referring to the

Texas Technological College. It was agreed that the word "university" was necessary to reflect the growth in size and prestige of the "college." Strongest support was for retaining the Double T, despite what name was selected for the university. By 1963, the board of directors officially approved "Texas Tech University," preserving aspects of the original name and retaining the trademark Double T. The State Legislature, on Sept. 1, 1969, formally approved the board's suggestion. TEXAS TOM CATS State Representative R.A. Baldwin, instrumental in the creation of Texas Tech and it being located in Lubbock, was in favor of naming Texas Tech's athletic teams the "Texas Tom Cats." As the story goes, after the vote was taken in the House of Representatives on passage of the bill to create the institution,Rep. George Purl turned to Rep. Baldwin and remarked: "We'll call the Tech football team the 'Texas Tom Cats' - TTC for Texas Technological College and also for Texas Tom Cats." TIE Texas Tech was involved in one of the strangest games in college football history. A 0-0 tie with Centenary in 1939 was played in a driving rainstorm and featured an NCAA-record 77 punts (67 on first down!).

This can be seen in the building cost index in Fig. 1. An estimate of land value for a house can be derived by subtracting the replacement value of the structure, adjusted for depreciation, from the home price. Using this methodology, Davis and Palumbo calculated land values for 46 U.S. metro areas, which can be found at the website for the Lincoln Institute for Land Policy.[14] Housing bubbles may occur in local or global real estate markets.

Britt had peaked. He did hit the Country Top Ten 11 times during the last half of the '40s, but never topped the charts. "Someday" reached number two in 1946, and six other songs peaked in the Top Five, including the double-sided "Wave to Me, My Lady"/"Blueberry Lane," "Detour," "Gotta Get Together With My Gal," "Candy Kisses," and "Quicksilver." A re-recording of his early hit "Chime Bells" hit number six. Britt continued recording with RCA, eventually releasing over 50 albums until 1957, when he moved to ABC/Paramount.

The delayed recall by General Motors that led to the deaths of at least 13 people was caused by the misconduct of about 20 employees and "a pattern of incompetence and neglect" throughout the company, according to an internal probe released Thursday. GM Chief Executive Officer Mary Barra announced that 15 employees have been dismissed and five more have been disciplined in the wake of the three-month probe by former federal prosecutor Anton Valukas. Some were dismissed due to misconduct or incompetence, while others simply did not do enough to fix the problem, Barra said. Their names and jobs were not disclosed. Barra, a GM veteran who became CEO in January, said she was deeply saddened and disturbed reading Valukas' report.

KUALA TERENGGANU, Terengganu: Two Malaysian women were caned Monday (Sep 3) for having lesbian sex in violation of strict Islamic laws, despite an outcry from activists at the "cruel and unjust" punishment. The case has sparked widespread condemnation and focused attention on what rights groups say is a deteriorating climate for the gay community in the Muslim-majority country. Campaigners said it was the first time that women in Malaysia have been caned for violating a sharia regulation which forbids same-sex relations. The country operates a dual-track legal system. Islamic courts can handle religious and family matters for Muslim citizens, as well as cases such as adultery. The women, aged 22 and 32, were arrested in April by Islamic enforcement officers after they were found in a car in a public square inthe northern state of Terengganu, one of the country's most conservative areas. The pair, whose identities have not been revealed, pleaded guilty last month to breaking Islamic laws and were sentenced to be whipped and fined 3,300 ringgit (US$800). They were caned at the Sharia High Court in the state capital Kuala Terengganu. A judge read out their sentence just before 10am (0300 GMT) and then officials meted out the punishment using thin canes in front of a packed courtroom, according to a journalist in the court. The younger woman sobbed but the elder one showed no reaction. "GRAVE RIGHTS VIOLATION" The punishment sparked a barrage of criticism, with Malaysian rights group Women's Aid Organisation saying it was "outraged and appalled by this grave violation of human rights.

In the end, a majority of the Russian athletes (278 out of 389 submitted by the ROC) cleared the IOC’s bar relatively easily, but some of them did not, and many of the latter ended up fighting for their right to compete at the Rio Olympics before the CAS ad hoc Division.[3] In the following blogs, I will analyse the ten published CAS awards related to Russian athletes.[4] It is these legal fightsRelated "Omar Calhoun" Articles Editor's note: Each week, InsideMdSports.com provides this blog with a Maryland recruiting feature that previously appeared as premium content on its site.

at the available statistics points to a similar conclusion. Between 1989 and 2004, 273 airliners and commuter aircraft were involved in accidents, resulting in 371 passenger and crew deaths. To put that in context, Canadians took more than 87 million flights in 2004 alone. "The bottom line is it's extremely safe," says Marc-Antoine Plourde, an Air Canada pilot and president of DePlour Research and Training Centre in Montreal, which helps people conquer their fear of flying. "We explain to people that it's not a fear that is justified given the level of safety. There are 500 to 1,000 deaths attributable to commercial aviation crashes every year, with close to 2 billion passengers flying.

Following Roma’s defeat on Tayside, a story has been circulated in Italy that McLean insulted the great Bruno Conti during the game – a tall tale perpetuated by Roma manager Nils Liedholm.

four in 2015. In 2016 and 2017, there were no recorded instances of poaching, but in February this year another rhino was killed by poachers. To combat this threat, the park administration is constantly upgrading the capacity of its rangers. It conducts regular boat patrols, and this April acquired eight new elephants for use in bush patrols, bringing its retinue to 59. Patrols are tracked and logged, and GPS-enabled smartphones feed data to the park’s central monitoring system. Rangers also record sightings of individual rhinos, and maintain an album with their photos and names. For example, the largest and strongest bull in the park is named Dara Singh, after a legendary professional wrestler and actor. (The same rhino in December last year gored to death a forest ranger, Uttam Sarkar,58.) If an unusual amount of time passes without a sighting, guards go on high alert until the rhino is found. During particularly crucial times — like moonlit nights when high visibility makes poaching easier, or in the run up to festivals when villagers are likely to need more cash than usual — JFMC members join the forest guards on foot patrols. The park management also holds joint anti-poaching operations with local police and the border patrol. Conducted once a month if personnel are available, these exercises are intended to serve as deterrents to any would-be poachers, said Avvaru Ravindranath, superintendent of police for Alipurduar district, in which Jaldapara is located. Police also monitor the registers of homestays in the vicinity of the forest, he said. When deterrence fails, the authorities

German football stars criticized over photos with Erdogan 15 May, 2018, 22:45 | Author: Clarence Schmidt DFB president Reinhard Grinded said: "The DFB of course respects the special situation for our players with migrant backgrounds, but football and the DFB stands for values that Mr. Erdogan does not sufficiently respect". Turkey's Tayyip Erdogan said he plans to take greater control of the economy after presidential elections next month and the central bank will have to take note of what the president says and act accordingly. "That's why it's not good our national team players allowed themselves to be misused for his election campaign maneuvers". Although the DFB's stance appeared to have softened at a news conference to announce a provisional World Cup squad on Tuesday, TFF president Yildirim Demiroren hit out athis German counterpart. The Turkish president said bilateral cooperation between the two countries has grown, especially since the referendums that changed Turkey's governing system to an executive presidency and paved the way for Britain's departure from the European Union. Erdogan also said that Halkbank executive Mehmet Hakan Atilla, who was found guilty by a USA court of helping Iran evade United States sanctions, was innocent and Turkey wanted his acquittal. "It was never our intention to make a political statement with this picture, let alone campaign [for Erdogan]".

One of the most moving, and instructive, experiences of my life occurred one summer when I visited my boss. One summer I took some friends with me to the Benedictine monastery of Metten, where my boss in the curia, and the former abbot of the same monastery, was passing the summer. When we got settled in, I went to the sacristan to figure out Mass for myself with my friends. But when we came to the church, Card. Mayer had taken the place of the sacristan. He set up for Mass. Served my Mass. Asked for my blessing after Mass. And then he served me with my friends at breakfast in the refectory. It was a pivotal experience.

A Commissioner's representative agreed, stating: First, in view of the unconditional nature of her resignation notice, we are not convinced that the employer had a duty pursuant to Minnesota Statute § 268.09, Subdivision 1(1), to take corrective action after its submission. Second, even if we accepted the claimant's contention that her resignation did not become effective until her last day of work, we would, nevertheless, find that the notice as contained in her resignation letter was defective insofar as she did not provide the employer with any specific information concerning the nature of the harassment, the extent of the harassment or the names of the harassers.By Dominic Casciani BBC News Mohammed al-Ghabra is one of those who had their assets frozen The UK Supreme Court has ruled that special Treasury orders that freeze the assets of terror suspects are unlawful. The judges at the UK's highest court said the government had exceeded its powers by controlling the finances of five suspects. They also lifted a ban on identifying the men who brought the challenge. The court said the government should have sought Parliament's approval for the asset freezing regime, rather than creating it automatically. The five men at the centre of the case have only been usually allowed £10 a week in cash and need special permission for other expenses. One of the men, Mohammed al-Ghabra, was named before Christmas. The other four were named

The group’s seventh album is called The Waterfall, and is out May 4 via ATO and Capitol Records In the wake of Built to Spill’s long-awaited return, here comes another overdue album within the guitar group pantheon, this time from My Morning Jacket. Also overcoming the largest album gap in their career, the last we saw these long-haired Kentucky dudes was with the pretty-damn-solid LP Circuital back in 2011. Refreshed, the band has announced The Waterfall, their seventh, along with the release of the single “Big Decisions.” The track is a guitar-driven epic, because duh, but it’s also just as pretty as some of their best stuff, harking back to the It Still Moves days, complete with Harvest-style steel guitar complementing Jim James’s strange backhanded insults.

minute that saw a momentum shift. The Knights began to step up their offensive pursuit and had the Sea Gulls briefly playing on their heels. The best attempt at a score by Southern Virginia occurred during their push when Alli Rigby found an opening up the left side of the field. Goalkeeper Hope Knussman made an aggressive play, coming out to the edge of the box to pounce on the ball before Rigby could get her shot off. Salisbury would regain momentum for the final 20 minutes and wouldn't allow the Knights to find another good shot the rest of the way. The victory marks the first Sea Gulls' shutout of the season. They led the game in shots, 18-6, and corner kicks, 8-0. Knussman needed to make only oneAngela Garcia. Angela is the minor child of Robert Garcia and Candice D. Garcia, who were divorced in 1983. The original divorce decree did not provide for the support of Angela, but granted custody to Candice Garcia. Robert Garcia filed an answer and counterclaim to the child support petition requesting that he now be given custody of Angela. Because the custody issue was raised by Robert Garcia in his counterclaim, the Seward County Attorney felt he had a conflict of interest and filed a motion for appointment of a special prosecutor. The district court appointed the prosecutor, and a settlement was later reached by the parties. The special prosecutor then filed an application for fees, and a hearing in the Seward County District Court was scheduled. The district court found

Engine 3, the first arriving engine company, reported a fire in the kitchen. According to Auburn Fire Rescue’s Assistant Chief Glenn Johnson, the fire was reported by one of the residents at 3 Park Street, who dialed 911. Crews extinguished the fire within six minutes of it being reported. The fire was contained to the kitchen and did not extend into any other parts of the residence. Cooking was determined to be the cause of the fire. The fire has been ruled accidental. Fire Departments from Oxford, Leicester, Millbury, and Sturbridge covered Auburn’s stations during the fire.

— a noble gesture, though it lacked a certain dramatic quality. The elaborate opener that cost more than $40 million and included a cast of 10,000 performers was kept under wraps throughout its development. The pressure was on Britain to at least equal the spectacular opening ceremony put on by the Chinese at Beijing in 2008. Security net holds The only security glitch came when dozens of cyclists tried to break through an Olympic barrier near the stadium. More than 100 people were arrested.

In a landmark decision, Switzerland's National Council has voted 118 to 60 to criminalize transphobia and homophobia. The ruling makes discrimination against LGBTQ people a parallel offense to racism, and introduces a prison sentence of up to three years for homophobic and transphobic crimes like hate speech. Socialist council member Mathias Reynard introduced and has championed the penal code reform over the last five years. Following the ruling he told Shortlist: "The Swiss Parliament's decision is great news because it sends the powerful message that homophobia is not an opinion; as for racism, it's a violation of the law." "I tabled the motion after speaking to friends of mine who have personally been victims of verbal and physical homophobic violence," he continued. "And working on this law I foundout that the Swiss case-law doesn't punish either hate speech or incitement to hatred towards LGBT+ people. During the last few years, this loophole in the law has been pointed out several times at an international level." "Victory! By 118 against 60 and 5 abstentions, the National Council accepts my parliamentary initiative against homophobia and transphobia! A magnificent success for human rights! Final response in December to the Council of States" the lawmaker wrote on Twitter. The ruling is groundbreaking for Switzerland, where gay marriage is still illegal and where anti-LGBTQ actions and speech previously were not criminalized.

Davos for the World Economic Forum. So in his role as president of the Senate, Pence cast the tie-breaking vote first during a procedural vote to end debate on Brownback’s nomination, and then again in the final roll call vote, which passed 50-49. It was the second time Pence has broken a tied nomination vote. On February 7 last year he did so to advance Betsy DeVos as Education Secretary by a 51-50 vote. On that occasion Republican Sens. Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) and Susan Collins (Me.) voted with the Democrats against Trump’s nominee. After the vote, Brownback tweeted his thanks to Trump, Pence, “and all the Senators who supported my nomination. I’m looking forward to starting my new position as Ambassador and working hard for the American people and religious freedomaffairs director Robert McCaw said when Brownback was nominated. As a senator, Brownback in 2005 called on then-U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan to resign unless the world body acted decisively to stop the carnage in Sudan’s Darfur region, where the victims (as well as the perpetrators) were Muslims. His Senate career also saw Brownback advocate strongly for religious freedom and rights protection in non-Islamic countries, including China, Vietnam and North Korea. Victims of persecution in those countries include Christians, but also independent Buddhists, Tibetan Buddhists, Uighur Muslims and Falun Gong adherents. Brownback was a key sponsor of the 1998 International Religious Freedom Act which established both the ambassador-at-large post and the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, an independent statutory body.

Mansions of the Hudson Valley by Kathryn Boughton While dour New England wrestled with its Calvinist soul and forsook the homey pleasures of Christmas in the 1600s, the doughty Dutch saw no reason to be glum. They never turned their backs on Christmas and from the earliest settlement of New Amsterdam in 1624 continued to mark the season with merrymaking, fresh-cut greens to adorn their homes and gift giving. Indeed, the Yuletide got pretty raucous in Dutch New York until efforts were undertaken to domesticate the holiday and turn it into the child-oriented celebration it is today. This movement, which emphasized Saint Nikolas, was given a substantial boost by the publication of the poem The Night Before Christmas in 1823 and later by Dickens’ A Christmas Carol in 1843. Today, the traditionsintroduced by the Dutch (and Dickens) are the basis for the holiday in the United States. Nowhere can they be better observed than in the great mansions of the Hudson Valley, where the Dutch established their country demesnes. Dutchess County's great estates are dressing up in their holiday finery, reflecting periods ranging from the Revolutionary War to World War II. Six mansions, the nation's first Presidential Library and several Colonial homesteads offer open houses and tours for the holidays. Perhaps the best-known of these is Springwood, birthplace and lifelong home to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Roosevelt, whose fifth great-grandfather came from Holland in 1649, was born just as the family-centric celebration of the holiday reached full flower. The patriarch of the country traditionally gathered his large brood around him

Bank of Scotland, UBS, JPMorgan and Deutsche Bank are said to be the subjects. Of course, there's no guarantee that anything will come of these. Schneiderman's predecessor—now New York Governor Andrew Cuomo—also had been investigating whether several banks had lied to rating agencies about the quality of their mortgage securities, and no charges resulted from that investigation. The Justice Department also declined to bring criminal charges against executives at AIG, the insurer that sold financial instruments that allowed major financial firms to place bets against the housing market—and sometimes, against the same financial products they sold to investors.

Packed with symbolism, some of the overlying themes (arms control, nuclear threat, vigilantes) have dated but the intelligent social and political commentary, the structure of the story itself, its intertextuality (chapters appended with excerpts from other "works" and "studies" on Moore's characters, or with excerpts from another comic book being read by a child within the story), the finepace of the writing and its humanity mean that Watchmen more than stands up--it keeps its crown as the best the genre has yet produced. --Mark Thwaite A Q&A with Dave Gibbons on the Makingwhere they were all there in costume in the same room, which was incredible. They had obviously planned that so I would get to see everyone. It was surreal though quite a wonderful experience to see it come to life. About the Author: Alan Moore is perhaps the most acclaimed writer in the graphic story medium, having garnered countless awards for works such as WATCHMEN, V FOR VENDETTA, SWAMP THING and Miracleman. He is also the mastermind behind the America's Best Comics line, through which he has created (along with many talented illustrators) THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN, PROMETHEA, TOM STRONG, TOMORROW STORIES and TOP TEN. As one of the medium's most important innovators since the early 1980s, Moore has influenced an entire generation of comics creators, and his work

PPA. There is some urgency involved in the decision to move forward with the projects, because the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) may soon expire or be exhausted. Further federal tax incentives that currently make PPA solar arrangements attractive to investors may expire in 2016. Legislator Cora Edwards noted that the solar array in Liberty, behind the Robert Travis Building, with 208 solar panels, serves the county’s needs best because the county gets the electricity from that array for no cost, and the county owns the array. Stuart said that was paid for by grants from various entities and those programs probably no longer exist. The consensus of the members of the Agriculture and Sustainability Committee was that they wanted to move forward with hearing from investorsorganized by the Government of India and recommended the establishment of three national academies: an Academy of Music, Dance, and Drama (Sangeet Natak Akademi), an Academy of Letters (Sahitya Akademi), and an Academy of Art (Lalit Kala Akademi). The Sangeet Natak Akademi, established on 31 May 1952 by a resolution of the Ministry of Human Resource Development (then the Ministry of Education), Government of India, headed by Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, is India's National Academy for Music, Dance, and Drama.

Private health insurance for adolescents: is it adequate? To examine the nature and extent of private insurance coverage available for health services needed by six hypothetical adolescents with physical and mental health conditions. Health insurance information was obtained from the most commonly sold product of the largest health maintenance organization (HMO) and preferred provider organization (PPO) in each state and the District of Columbia. Contract documents were collected in 1999 and were in effect at the end of 1998. Our response rate was 97% and included 49 HMOs and 49 PPOs. The extent of coverage was analyzed according to benefit availability, structure, limits, and protections, as well as condition and treatment restrictions. The two hypothetical adolescents with asthma and depression had coverage for their recommended health services in mostIn each group tested, one trained sheep initiated a move towards a coloured panel raised under experimenter\'s control. Under these controlled condition, individual decisions to move depended mainly on other group members\' behaviour. For that purpose a food reward was delivered on the ground at the foot of one of five panels laid at the periphery of the arena. Before raising one panel, a sound stimulus was delivered to synchronize the attention state of all sheep (head-up) so they could concurrently perceive the departure of the initiator. This could be compared to a situation of heightened attention of all group members such as may occur under conditions of predation risk in which it is important to be vigilant and to flee if necessary. The behaviour of sheep was recorded

move, but take one look at the "Transformers" alum's 2012 movie lineup and you'll notice a pattern: comedy, comedy, comedy. It all begins this week with "Friends With Kids," an indie ensemble co-starring Jennifer Westfeldt (who also wrote and directed), Kristen Wiig, Jon Hamm, Adam Scott, Maya Rudolph and more, in which Fox plays the sultry young girlfriend to new father Scott. Next comes what promises to be a hilarious cameo in summer's "The Dictator" before a more prominent role in Judd Apatow's "Knocked Up" spin-off "This Is Forty." The famously candid Fox did not disappoint when we sat down with her at the Toronto International Film Festival, discussing everything from her "boring" life away from the party scene to judging her replacement in "Transformers 3" to the possibility oficonic superheroine. Carter told Fox and Friends that the young whippersnapper is a bad choice to play the Amazonian because Fox told reporters (just last year!) Wonder Woman is a "lame superhero." • In happier "Transformers" news, Movieweb has pics of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley looking good on the set of the franchise's third installment. • Two things Dakota Fanning can't stop doing: impressing the world with preternaturally sophisticated performances, and winning the crown for Homecoming Queen.

By Bill Ladson / MLB.com | PHOENIX -- The Nationals signed infielder Greg Dobbs to a Minor League contract on Monday. He will go to Viera, Fla., to get in baseball shape, and then probably play a few games for Triple-A Syracuse before he is called up to the big club. The Nationals have had interest in Dobbs dating back to the offseason of 2011, but he ended up signing with the Marlins, where he didn't see much action this season. He was 1-for 13 for Miami before he was released by the club last week. Dobbs is best remembered for being part of a Phillies team that won a World Series title in 2008.

The deputy placed defendant under arrest and transported him to the county jail. Umbdenstock visited defendant's jail cell with Deputy Sheriff Ewart Malott, learned that defendant had parked his *437 car on the prison lot, and received permission from defendant to search it. Umbdenstock and Malott then obtained defendant's keys from the jail and returned to the prison, where they carried out a search of defendant's car. They found nearly three more full cartons of cigarettes in the car's trunk. Analysis by the Bureau of Scientific Services disclosed that these cartons contained approximately 645 grams of cannabis.

Next comes confrontation: the patient faces the painful consequences of the episode and sometimes suffers from depressive symptoms. This reminds him of his vulnerability. Consequently, a sort of projection develops: the patient criticizes the medications and their adverse effects as well as medical competence and diagnostic reliability. After several episodes and psychoeducation, this stage is often replaced by acceptance. Adherence may thus depend on acute clinical state (degree of elation) and also the final degree of acceptance. These testimonies confirm former descriptions. In 1933, Binswanger had already written about the singularity of this subjective experience, specifying that it did not represent triumph seeking but was more of a suppression of weight,

2017. Wake continues to distance himself from the devasting 2015 rupture of his Achilles tendon by churning out his second consecutive season with double-digit sacks. His playing time hasn't decreased despite his advanced age, as his 615 defensive snaps was a three-year high and checked in second to Ndamukong Suh among Dolphins defensive lineman. The veteran, who turns 36 on Jan. 30, remains under contract with Miami for one more season and should return in 2018 as a viable IDP prospect. Doughty was taken by the Dolphins in the seventh-round of the 2016 Draft, but still has not made his NFL debut with the team.

Pope Francis meets a patient as he visits a Paediatric Hospital in Bangui, Central African Republic, November 29, 2015. Pope Francis, ending a three-nation African tour, on Monday visits a mosque in a besieged Muslim enclave in Central African Republic’s capital in an effort to bridge the religious divide in a nation racked by three years of violence. Healing rifts between Christian and Muslim communities has been a theme throughout Francis’ first visit to the continent, which has also taken him to Kenya and Uganda. However, nowhere is his call for peace and reconciliation more pressing than in Central African Republic, where thousands have died and hundreds of thousands have been displaced in clashes that have split the country along religious lines.

The Fair Haven area of the Quinnipiac River thrived in the 19th century as a center for maritime activities, including oystering, clamming and ship building. Families involved with this work lived along the river, in "oyster houses" which had a basement level room that served as storage areas for oysters and clams, which were shucked by men, women and children and sold from their homes. Rossi's sculpture of a whimsical male bearded figure wearing a sea captain's hat, slicker and smoking a pipe, held an oyster in his right hand. A series of curves defined the figure, giving the Seaman the sense of floating along the water. He hands were amphibian-like, with nodules at the end of each finger, like a frog. Rossi lived and worked in New Haven forten years, studying with Ann Lehman at Creative Arts Workshop and Joseph Correale of Woodbridge. Unfortunately, the small scale of the bronze sculpture made it an easy target for vandals, and the Seaman disappeared shortly after installation.

It was Bin Salman’s first meeting with a delegation of Evangelical Christian leaders. The group arrived in Saudi Arabia after holding similar talks in Abu Dhabi with Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Zayed. The group was led by Joel C. Rosenberg, an author and Evangelical activist who lives in Israel. Other participants included Mike Evans, founder of the Friends of Zion Museum in Jerusalem.

Luther O. Tyus is a graduate research assistant in the Brown School at Washington University in St. Louis, as well as an eight-year veteran of the St. Louis Police Department and a certified Peace Officer Standards and Training police instructor. The views expressed in this commentary are his own. (CNN) The first time I almost killed a man was two years after graduating from the police academy. I was working at a local nightclub when a brawl erupted. Wading through the sucker punches and small skirmishes, I saw a man walk to his car, retrieve a long brown item and approach the nightclub entrance. My heart raced. I turned toward the subject and unsnapped my holster. As a young African-American officer, I understood the threat of losing one's life in thechange blindness. I saw what appeared to be a long-barreled handgun in the man's left hand. I pulled my weapon and shouted, "Drop the gun." He didn't see me, but he did hear me. He dropped the weapon. The "gun" was actually a hammer. Now consider former Tulsa officer Betty Shelby. On September 16, 2016, Shelby responded to a call. Terence Crutcher's car was parked in the middle of a road. Police video from the incident, widely viewed on YouTube, captured what happened next. Crutcher walks away from Shelby, toward his SUV with his hands up. Another officer tases him, causing him to fall to the ground. Shelby then shoots Crutcher in the back, killing him. Why? Before the incident, Shelby received a "mental anchor" (a common bias that all humans rely on

BROWSE Sam Adams Obituary HOUSTON (AP) — Former New England Patriots offensive lineman Sam Adams has died in Houston at the age of 67. Adams became ill at his Houston home last Saturday and died at a hospital, Rodney Coleman of Coleman's Mortuary in Jasper said Wednesday. No cause of death was released. Adams, who was a Jasper native, played for Prairie View A&M before joining the Patriots in 1972. His son, also named Sam Adams, played for Texas A&M. He joined the Seahawks in 1994 and his NFL career through 2007 included stops in Baltimore, Oakland, Buffalo, Cincinnati and Denver. The elder Adams spent most of his NFL career with New England, finishing with New Orleans in 1981. "This is really sad news for Patriots fans who enjoyed watching Sam Adams play andthe many Patriots teammates who played with him throughout the 1970s," Patriots Chairman and CEO Robert Kraft said, before referring to one of the nation's founding fathers, Boston-born Samuel Adams. "Not only was he a stalwart in the trenches for nearly a decade, but I can't think of a more appropriately named player to represent the Patriots." Adams started 90 of the 119 games he played in for the Patriots during his nine seasons there. In 1978, he was part of a line that paved the way as the Patriots won the AFC East and set an NFL team record by rushing for 3,165 yards. Sam Cunningham led the team that year with 768 yards rushing. The funeral is Saturday at Church of Jesus Christ House of Prayer in Jasper,

The couple reached a confidential settlement earlier this year. MacLean, 53, has received his own share of ink. A native of Canada, he has spent much of his adult life in professional hockey. MacLean took the Florida Panthers to the Stanley Cup in his first year as an NHL headcoach but was replaced two years later.

The third partner and self-described "boring guy in the group" is Sherrin. The 51-year-old Miami native went to Ohio University on a tennis scholarship and began his career as an accountant. At age 22, he said in an interview Tuesday, he and several friends began acquiring small parcels of undeveloped farmland near Orlando. Years later, he helped develop a highly successful retail complex, Lake Buena Vista Factory Stores, on the land and, more recently, an adjacent 500-unit condo-resort that is set to grow to 1,800.

432 F.Supp. 93 (1977) UNITED STATES of America ex rel. Gerard E. CRAFT, Petitioner, v. Eugene LEFEVRE, Superintendent, Clinton Correctional Facility, Dannemora, New York, Respondent. No. 76 Civ. 5464-CSH. United States District Court, S. D. New York. May 9, 1977. *94 Gerard E. Craft, pro se. Louis J. Lefkowitz, Atty. Gen., New York City, for respondent; Kevin J. McKay, New York City, of counsel. MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER HAIGHT, District Judge: Petitioner Gerard E. Craft is presently incarcerated in the Clinton Correctional Facility, Dannemora, New York. He is serving a sentence of six to twenty years, imposed for a conviction of robbery in the first degree, with a concurrent sentence of up to four years, imposed for a conviction of grand larceny in the third degree. These prison terms were imposed on September 6, 1974 by the Hon. Angeloo'clock in the evening, a black male dressed in blue denim pants and jacket, entered a gift shop in Pine Bush, New York. The shop was owned and operated by a Mr. Samuel Anderson. The denim-clad man, ostensibly a customer, engaged in a few minutes of conversation with Mr. Anderson. Shortly thereafter, the supposed customer produced a knife, pulled it on Mr. Anderson, and demanded that he "get back to the cash register, give me the money." Anderson complied with this order, and, after reaching the cash register, and after having the knife put to his throat, he extracted between fifty and sixty dollars, which he turned over to the robber. The robber then forced Anderson to the rear of the store, at knifepoint, where he attempted to tie

469-70, 117 S.Ct. 1544. Second, Dohan argues that the government improperly "vouched" for the credibility of Gilliland's testimony by suggesting it had been "checked" by the prosecutor, and also by the judge in earlier reducing Gilliland's sentence for giving substantial assistance, and violated FED. R.EVID. 610 by soliciting comments from Gilliland about being a "moral, Christian man." Whether the government has improperly vouched for a witness's credibility is a mixed question of law and fact subject to plenary review. United States v. Eyster, 948 F.2d 1196, 1206 (11th Cir.1991). Viewing the comments referred to involving checking on the witness's story and the earlier sentencing of the witness in the context of the witness's overall testimony, we conclude that they neither were improper nor prejudicially affected the substantial rights of thewill go back dollar for dollar to customers," Glenn said. • • • The Florida Legislature overwhelmingly supported the 2006 law that allowed utilities to collect money from customers in advance to help build nuclear plants. They hailed the law as a way to build the plants cheaper and faster, saving customers about $300 million. Critics countered that there weren't enough safeguards in place. In 2009, for instance, economist Mark Cooper told the PSC that it was "not prudent" to proceed with the Levy project. Cooper, now a senior fellow at the Institute for Energy and the Environment at Vermont Law School, subsequently called the way the law was enacted "the perfect story of crony capitalism." Now Cooper and others shake their heads. "If they had taken my advice four years ago, they would

team of eight disaster volunteers to assist local authorities at the evacuation centre. This is a precautionary step as the area outside of Plaster Rock where the derailment occurred is sparsely populated so the number of people impacted by evacuation is small and most of them will likely choose to stay temporarily with family or friends elsewhere in the community," said Bill Lawlor, Canadian Red Cross director of disaster management for New Brunswick. "However, should any residents require a place to stay including through the night, or should circumstances change unexpectedly, our team is bringing cots, blankets and other essentials to properly manage a shelter." The train originated in Toronto and was headed to Moncton, New Brunswick, which is about 300 km (186 miles) east of the site ofBOOKSHELF PUBLIC MANAGEMENT IN THE NEW DEMOCRACY----Edited by Fritz Meretoin Marx, with the assistance of Enno Hobbing and Laurence 1.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED October 23, 1940 This book, a development of the conference on the American Public Service sponsored by the Harvard Guardian, should be on the "must read" list of any undergraduate contemplating a career in some branch of government work. It is a collection of articles by men prominent in the field of public service in the United States, on opportunities in and the general status of government work at the present time.

Welsh Midfielder, Joe Allen, has been hinting that he might leave Liverpool since the start of this year, but with one year remaining on his current deal, he has insisted that he is happy to wait until the summer for his future to be decided. Although the Reds have yet to open talks over a new contract, it is now widely believed that Allen may be preparing to leave Liverpool at the end of the season, especially with the knowledge that he is behind both Emre Can and Jordan Henderson in the midfield pecking order. Embed from Getty Images One of the things that left the Welshman frustrated was the fact that he has not been able to play on the pitch as much as he wanted. Allen has told TheFLINT, MI -- A father who was accused of killing his 3-year-old daughter and burying her body has reached a plea agreement and agreed to testify against the girl's mother. Khairy Joshuawon Simon pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and removing a dead body without permission of the medical examiner on Tuesday, June 12, before Genesee Circuit Judge Geoffrey L. Neithercut. Simon, 27, admitted to killing his daughter Kimora Lee Simon in 2015 and investigators believe he put her body in a backpack and buried her along railroad tracks near the Evergreen Regency apartments. The girl's mother, Erika Shantae Finley, also is charged in connection to the killing. "We felt that she was more complicit in the abuse, neglect and in the death of the child and the cover-up," Genesee County Prosecutor David

New Mexico didn't become a state until 1912. Santa Fe has long harbored a thriving creative class, drawing California castaways, Zen practitioners, desert sojourners, and, of course, Georgia O'Keeffe. The census finds more artists here per capita than anywhere else in the nation. The town's history paved the way for Meow Wolf, and in return, Meow Wolf provides a millennial, DayGlo alternative to the turquoise squash-blossom necklaces and painted cow skulls that signify the city's entrenched aesthetic. Emphasis on entrenched. Spanish Colonial and Native American cultures feel very much alive here, somewhat by means of contrivance: The Historical Zoning Ordinance of 1957 rules that all buildings within city limits must adhere to the "Pueblo Revival" style of adobe architecture. Like New Orleans, Santa Fe almost seems a caricature ofcenturies old. A friend told me that Maria's New Mexican Kitchen "wrote the book" on margaritas, and he was right: Maria's owner Al Lucero published The Great Margarita Book in 1999. (That said, Maria's use lemons instead of limes as base mixer, a decision it claims is based on consistency of flavor that I can't get behind.) The culinary corollary to Meow Wolf is the restaurant Eloisa, which eschews the standard Santa Fe palette of purples and pinks for a sleek black-and-white space inside the Drury Plaza Hotel. Here Santa Fe-born, world-traveled chef John Rivera Sedlar modernizes Santa Fe's traditional cuisine with such studied, loving finesse that dinner feels like an evolutionary inevitability. Which in itself is a revelation. A town as old as Santa Fe, with its long

ran to a nearby subway station, where he took his own life as police were closing in. Earlier that morning, police in Baltimore say Brinsley shot and wounded his ex-girlfriend. Now, he posted numerous messages on Instagram warning of his plans, including one that said, "Putting wings on pigs today. Shoot the police." This follow weeks of protest over the failure of various grand juries to indict officers involved in deaths of black men. Some of those protests here in the city turned violent. And the police union chief, Pat Lynch, part of blame for that violence squarely on the shoulders of New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, whom he says is more sympathetic to the protesters than the police. (BEGIN VIDEO CLIP) PATRICK LYNCH, PRESIDENT, PATROLMEN'S BENEVOLENT ASSOCIATION:There's blood on many hands tonight. That blood on the hands starts on the steps of city hall in the office of the mayor. (END VIDEO CLIP) DAHLER: And today police all across the city as well as country are mourning the loss of two of their own. Now, the family of Eric Garner, the man who died in police custody while he was being arrested for selling loose cigarettes, has condemned the shootings. And they will be taking part in a press conference here in Harlem later today with the Reverend Al Sharpton -- Bob. SCHIEFFER: Don, thank you so much. Both President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder condemned the killings and urge calm. For more now, we turn to the head of the NAACP, Cornell William Brooks. Mr. Brooks, I want to

LOS ANGELES -- NASA has tested new technology designed to bring spacecraft -- and one day even astronauts -- safely down to Mars, with the agency declaring the experiment a qualified success even though a giant parachute got tangled on the way down. Saturday's $150 million experiment is the first of three involving the Low Density Supersonic Decelerator vehicle. Tests are being conducted at high altitude on Earth to mimic descent through the thin atmosphere of the Red Planet. A balloon hauled the saucer-shaped craft 36,575 metres into the sky from a Navy missile range on the Hawaiian island of Kauai. Then, the craft's own rocket boosted it to more than 45 kilometres high at supersonic speeds. As the craft prepared to fall back to earth, a doughnut-shaped tube around itDon't plan on spending New Year's Day snuggling by the fire. In fact, don't plan on having a fire at all. Bay Area air regulators have issued the season's first winter Spare the Air alert, which bans Bay Area residents from lighting wood fires in fireplaces or stoves on Tuesday. "Current weather conditions are expected to allow air pollution to build up to unhealthy levels on New Year's Day," according to a statement from Jack Broadbent, head of the Bay Area Air Quality Management District. "Sitting by the fire during the holidays may conjure up fond memories, but it's important that everyone forgoes burning during this alert so we can all enjoy a happy, healthy holiday." A cold, low-pressure weather system from Alaska has settled over the region, bringing cool, still
