Two die in plane blaze in south of France
TWO people have died in plane crash in the south of France, reports say.
The two-seater plane crashed around 7.30 (local time) on the outskirts of Saint-Remy-de-Maurienne.
Mayor Christian Rochette told France Bleu the aircraft had just taken off from the airport at Saint-Remy-de-Maurienne before it came down.
According to reports, the plane came down after it hit a tree.
The plane soon caught fire after crashing between two roads.
Both occupants of the aircraft died instantly, reports say.
The pilot of the plane, Leo Girard, the former president of the local flying club, has been identified by authorities.
The news comes a day after the world's largest aircraft crashed – Airlander 10 – during a UK flight just a week after its debut.

Contribution of dual fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography to the appraisal of presumed tuberculous chorioretinitis in a non-endemic area
Raphael Massy, Carl P Herbort
Department of Ophthalmology, University of Lausanne; Retinal and Inflammatory Eye Diseases, Centre for Ophthalmic Specialized Care (COS), Teaching Centre Clinic Montchoisi, Lausanne, Switzerland
Correspondence Address:Carl P HerbortRetinal and Inflammatory Eye Diseases, Centre for Ophthalmic Specialised Care (COS), Teaching Centre Clinic Montchoisi Rue Charles-Monnard 6, 1003 Lausanne SwitzerlandSource of Support: None, Conflict of Interest: NoneCheckDOI: 10.4103/2008-322X.200157
Source of Support: None, Conflict of Interest: None
Purpose: To assess the respective involvement of retina versus choroid in presumed ocular tuberculosis (POT) in a non-endemic area using dual fluorescein (FA) and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA).Methods: We retrospectively analyzed cases diagnosed with POT at the Centre for Ophthalmic Specialized Care, Lausanne, Switzerland. Angiography signs were quantified using an established dual FA and ICGA scoring system for uveitis.Results: Out of 1739 uveitis patients visited from 1995 to 2014, 53 (3%) were diagnosed with POT; of whom 28 patients (54 eyes) had sufficient data available to be included in this study. Of 54 affected eyes, 39 showed predominant choroidal involvement, 14 showed predominant retinal involvement and one had equal retinal and choroidal scores. Mean angiographic score was 6.97 ± 5.08 for the retina versus 13.48 ± 7.06 for the choroid (P < 0.0001). For patients with sufficient angiographic follow-up after combined anti-tuberculous and inflammation suppressive therapy, mean FA and ICGA scores decreased from 6.97 ± 5.08 to 3.63 ± 3.14 (P = 0.004), and 13.48 ± 7.06 to 7.47 ± 5.58 (P < 0.0001), respectively.Conclusion: These results represent the first report of the respective contributions of retinal and choroidal involvement in POT. Choroidal involvement was more common, for which ICGA is the preferred examination. In cases of compatible uveitis with positive results of an interferon-gamma release assay, particularly in a region that is non-endemic for TB, dual FA and ICGA should be performed to help establish the diagnosis of ocular tuberculosis and improve follow-up.

Herzog and de Meuron
Their most prominent project was the Tate Modern (one of the Tate galleries) in London. To create the museum, Herzog and de Meuron converted a former power plant on the South Bank of the River Thames. Incorporating traditional elements with Art Deco and modernism, the architects created what they described as a "building of the 21st century." Upon opening to the public in May 2000,...

Great quality, great price!
Love the Phantom Semi-Dry! No restriction with movement when casting, paddling etc. I use it for kayak fishing, jetty hopping, on the boat, wherever I need to stay, warm and dry. Don't need to wear many layers in the cold, its windproof and definitley keeps water out!!! Lightweight yet rugged.
ProsLightweight, yet rugged material
ConsThe large is more like an XL or larger to me, and I am 5'11" and 175lbs, but if I am layered, I fill it in a little more.

This white Glasbake cup has large black letters that identify its owner. On the back of this mug is written a Grandfather poem that states "you're really grand in every way...". It has a nice sheen and appears not to have been used as it has no stains from use. The bottom reads 59, Glasbake in a flag shape, USA, microwave safe. The three finger handle is large enough for a man's hand and is a comfortable weight. This cup is 3 1/2inches tall and 3 inches wide. The cup originally came from Glacier National Park and comes with a lacquered wood platform which reads "I love you" on the front and the insignia of the park tastefully placed on the upper edge where it is hidden away. I see no chips, cracks or marks on this piece. This is a nice functional cup that would be a great gift for Father's day, anniversary or a birthday. Check my site for a cup for Grandma as well. Buy the pair and I will lower the price.

Papacy Debate
The best day for us to come together is a Saturday. Chris is in Australia and I am in the USA (Arizona), so we're about 13 hours apart, if I recall correctly. If I'm on at say 6am Arizona time, that's 7pm in Australia. This coming Saturday (11/6) is out, so the next possible will be November 13th. I will keep you posted. Chris and I are also working on the format of the live cross examination, which I will also post here prior to the live encounter.
After this live cross-exam phase, all that remains are our Closing Arguments. I encourage the reader to "catch up" with us by reading through what has previously transpired and be ready with some questions of your own.
Again, when we have established the exact time, I'll be posting that here too, so stay tuned! If you're not familiar with IRC, you should try connecting to #CathApol prior to the debate too, to avoid difficulties on that day. For information and even a javascript method of getting in (no client needed!) check out the website for #CathApol here:
1 comment:
There is a possibility I could to a Friday night, especially the weekend of 11/12. If I were to join at say 8pm Arizona time, that would be 9am on Saturday morning for Chris/John. If that is more acceptable to him, I'm certainly open for it. That makes it rather late for East Coast USA (10pm) to start, but again, the session will be logged for those who cannot be there live. The advantage of being there live is for the Q&A session.ReplyDelete

Reform of the tax system? It is essential to undertake this activity as it is well overdue. The government should be congratulated on the breadth of the approach and the ambition of the goal.
The complexity of the current tax system has grown over the last 40 years as bits are added and pieces removed. All depending on the condition of the economy, help on who is in power, order the cleverness or not of the Treasurer of the day, remedy the philosophy of the government of the day, what the States are up to and manipulation by some big businesses.
What is pleasing is to see small business get special attention from this discussion paper. For too long the economic rationalists and academics have wanted all businesses to be treated the same in tax and in economic policy. Finally someone has listened (probably to Bruce Billson and COSBOA).
Designing a system for all businesses will always mean big business gets its way and small business people have to struggle with extra complexity. So it is best to focus on each group separately. This is quite a change from previous reviews of tax and shows that, maybe, finally, the old fashioned economic rationalists have been sent on their way back to last century where they rightfully belong.
The focus on removing complexity is also commended – a less complex system is less expensive and encourages business and innovators.
The issue of GST has to be sorted. If we are going to have low or zero company and personal tax then a consumption tax that is supported by all and applied to all needs to be in place. The Howard government gave us GST after decades of debate now is the time to fix the faults and pave the way for use of technology to ease complexity and also give confidence that people and companies will pay their way. Again the government needs to be congratulated on the focus on this issue.
The debate on the GST will be difficult as we try to balance the need for simplicity with the needs of particular groups, especially those who cannot work or, if economic conditions are on a downward slope, who cannot find work. And as the recent Inter-generational report shows we will likely have less people working and more people on pensions creating a real imbalance in payment processes. Who will pay for the pensioners?
A fair international taxation system is desperately needed by all countries, developed, developing or under developed. This will require the international business community and various country associations to come together and agree on how companies should be taxed and where that tax should go. I doubt if Australia can lead the way on this issue but we should work hard on making changes happen.
In the end innovation will come from entrepreneurs and small business and that is where the future of the economy lies.

Our contributing author, Carol, took a trip to Destin, Florida – here's what she has to say about the area:
There are many activities and restaurants in Destin, Florida. I visited a few of them with thirty blogger friends. The first was a restaurant with bowling. It is called, Uncle Buck's Fish Bowl and Grill. First there was some wonderful and unusual food in the Trophy Room. An example is Boar Sliders and Alligator.
The atmosphere was like nothing I have ever seen before. It is very mesmerizing bowling in a fish bowl! That is exactly what it felt like! You really have to experience this!
Lulu's is a new open air restaurant in Destin. It is owned by Lucy Buffet, Jimmy Buffet's sister. It has a beautiful beach atmosphere and is very family friendly. It also has fun, and music! Lulu's has very fresh seafood and supports the Gulf-to-Table movement which guarantees fresh seafood. I was amazed by this. The wait staff can bring you a tag which you scan with your smart phone. Then it shows you the boat your fish was caught on with a picture of the fisherman. Next, it shows you the chef in the restaurant with his picture! It is really wonderful to insure fresh seafood. Lulu's also has an Allergy menu. This is so great for all of the people with allergies. This is a restaurant you just cannot miss! It has great family and beach atmosphere!
Our next stop was the Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park. They have many things to see here. They have Dolphin and Sea Lion shows. I just love the dolphins! They are my personal favorite. They also have animal exhibits and adventurous animal encounters. They have a Sunset Camp for children so adults can enjoy an evening out. This includes:
- Dolphin Encounter
- Beach Exploration
- Ocean Themed Activities
- Scavenger Hunt
- Dinner at Seal Harbor
Our last stop was at Wild Willie's Adventure Park. We ate fabulous pizza and had so much fun here! It has an arcade inside with 4-D Movies. Outside is a ropes course as big as a mountain for all of the fearless people! There are also several rides and a miniature golf course. So much family fun here!
There is endless shopping here! There are many listed below:
- HarborWalk Village
- Destin Outlets
- Destin Commons
- Destin Outlet Mall
- WyLand Galleries with many WyLand Art Shows! Located at The Market Shops in Sandestin.
There is much more to do here on the Emerald Coast. This is without the white beaches and clear emerald green waters. If you are planning a vacation you will not be disappointed in Destin, Florida!
*I received free or discounted meals and activities. All opinions are my own.

Advances in rapid prototyping have produced significant reductions in controller development time in recent years, and the trend is for this to continue. At the same time, government regulations have become more stringent and the customer demand for improved performance - handling, driveability, safety and fuel economy - has increased. Therefore, new techniques have to be used and developed in order to meet the new time frame and requirements. In this paper, the authors will show an example of how 'in loop' techniques can be successfully applied to model and simulate an Automated Manual Transmission (AMT).

Comics A.M. | Maggie Thompson puts rare comics up for auction
Auctions | Comics industry legend Maggie Thompson plans to put up for auction 524 comics from her personal collection. Thompson, who with her late husband Don was a longtime editor of the Comics Buyer's Guide, estimates that she has 10,000 comics, all stored in a special vault-like addition to her home, which she built using the money from a previous sale, of Amazing Fantasy #15 (the first appearance of Spider-Man) and the first 100 issues of The Amazing Spider-Man. Bidding on the first batch of comics, which includes The Avengers #1, Journey into Mystery #83 (first appearance of Thor), The Incredible Hulk #1, and original cover art from Conan #4, begins today. [The Associated Press]
Comics | ICv2 releases the results of its White Paper (previously reported at Comic Book Resources), which tracks comics and graphic novel sales in all channels. Briefly, the report shows that sales of comics and graphic novels are up, manga is up dramatically, and digital comics sales continue to increase — although growth is slowing a bit, which is to be expected as the base increases.

It's exactly the opposite of a wiki. :) I agree that Policy should be kept a closely reviewed thing. But maybe we can have something like AnnoCPAN, where users are allowed to provide /annotations/ inline with the actual policy. So people can add things like "be careful here, this means ..." or something. Then those annotations can be considered proposed changes for the future, and the Policy folks can look through that to integrate things (like clearer wording) into the actual, official Policy.

No audio from IVF file
No audio from a Radio station Web site (dynamicasx.IVF file) on computer with Windows 7. After changing the default program for the .ivf file to Windows Media Player I get the error report that the .ivf file is not recognized by WMP. Win 7/WMP 12 should be able to play .ivf files according to what I can find in the Internet. Audio is fine with a computer running Win XP and with the Windows 7 computer running Virtual XP mode.
|My System Specs
|01 Jan 2011
That is an Intel Indeo Video file, not an "audio" file. But, if it won't play then you are probably missing the codec for that format. Download the free K-Lite codec pack as that probably has the codec you need.

|01 Jan 2011
Could not find anything that mentioned an .ivf file. After installing the Mega version nothing changed.
|My System Specs
|02 Jan 2011
Do a google search for the ivf file/codec there are lots of hits and maybe one will get you the needed codec to be able to play or hear them. If the K lite pack does not have it, either you have some other problem with this type or it's an obscure/obsolete type file.
|My System Specs
|03 Jan 2011
Problem solved, kinda. Learned from the Web Master for the radio program that it is a browser problem. He give me a streaming URL address to paste in a field of Windows Media Player that provided access to the audio. Now we will see if there is a fix for the problem in IE 8.

Four North and West Yorkshire Brothers Sentenced in York Over £1 Million Car Scam
6:31pm 11th December 2012
Four brothers convicted of an extensive scam in second hand car dealing after prosecution by North Yorkshire trading standards officers, were ordered to pay back almost £1million from the benefits of crime at York Crown Court today.
The brothers were made the subject of Proceeds of Crime Act confiscation orders to remove their assets.
They were caught selling clocked cars with dramatically reduced mileage readings and were sentenced at Leeds Crown Court in November 2011, with the main offender, Paul Price, receiving 18 months imprisonment.
The North Yorkshire Trading Standards and Planning Services investigation revealed that the gang, who purchased vehicles from local car auctions, subsequently sold them on after they had been clocked, with the mileages being dramatically reduced. In one case, a car had its mileage reduced by over 200,000 miles. Unsuspecting consumers purchased the cars after seeing them advertised on the Autotrader website. In some instances, false service histories were also supplied with the cars.
The brothers, Paul, Ian, Gary and Melvyn Price, ran businesses using multiple trading names, selling cars from their home addresses in North and West Yorkshire. They were charged with conspiracy to commit fraud between January 2008 and August 2009 in relation to over 40 clocked vehicles. One of the brothers, Paul Price, of Tingley, West Yorkshire was also found guilty of perverting the course of justice, together with a fifth male, Gareth Hunt. Paul Price was also convicted of three counts of money laundering.
The court today found that they had benefited from crime by a combined total of £1,009,658.40, and individually by the following amounts:
- Paul Price – £455,702.60
- Ian Price – £291,870.10
- Gary Price – £127,688.32
- Melvyn Price – £134,397.38
They were ordered to repay a combined total of £844,703.15 within six months and were given default sentences of 3 years, 2 years, 18 months and 2 years imprisonment respectively, should they fail to pay. Paul Price was ordered to repay £411,321.90, Ian Price £229,333.37, Gary Price £69,650.50 and Melvyn Price £134,397.38.
Over £40,300 from the monies recovered will be used to compensate all the victims in the criminal case.
The confiscation investigation was conducted by the North East Regional Assets Recovery Team at Leeds.
Cllr Chris Metcalfe, Executive Member for North Yorkshire Trading Standards and Planning Services said:
"These individuals were convicted for their part in what was a serious and deliberate fraud. Many consumers lost out as a result of their actions. The Proceeds of Crime Act is an excellent tool which can be used to ensure crime does not pay and also that consumers are compensated fully for their losses.
This case demonstrates our commitment to effective partnership working with agencies such as the North East Regional Assets Recovery Unit (NE RART), to ensure offenders do not benefit from their crimes. We are very grateful to the NE RART for all the assistance they provided in this case, both during the investigation and in the confiscation case, and we look forward to working with them again in future. "
DCI Lisa Atkinson the North East Regional Asset Recovery Unit said:
"The North East Regional Asset Recovery Team will continue to pursue offenders such as the Price brothers that live a life of luxury as a result of crime, and at the expense of innocent members of the public"

Man belongs to the Earth - Earth does not belong to Man
This is an adaptation of a meme I saw flying about the interwebs this morning. Somehow it seems to fit with my current state of mind.
At the bottom of that post I shared a video with you of the Highwaymen playing their signature tune "Highwayman". I only heard this song quite recently and it's cast quite a spell over me. So much so that I felt inspired to have a go at playing it myself. You can see the video here...
Highwayman was written by songwriting powerhouse Jimmy Webb. Legend has it that the song was inspired by a dream Jimmy had:
"I had a black cape and pistols, and I was definitely a bandit. A highwayman, as it were. I was being chased within an inch of my life by these grenadiers on horseback, and I knew for a fact that if they caught me, they were going to kill me."
Guess who was playing the Yukon Bar last night? Yep... Ukulele Russ. Here's the picture he posted. I love the Yukon Bar sign. She looks like one mean cowgirl. Talking of cowgirls, I've been busy trying to find a cowgirl to do a duet with me and I reckon I might just have got lucky! Watch this space for an update sometime soon!
Do you remember a little bit of fun I had a while back where I revealed a new discovery on YouTube? I'd been listening to some videos by the Harp Twins, Camille and Kennerly. I was a little bit cheeky and put together the above picture as I imagined myself doing a musical collaboration with the talented harpists.
Well, would you believe this when I tell you that they only bloody caught me this week! I seem to have caused a bit of a stir on their facebook page. Thankfully, the girls haven't done any karate on me and have taken my little prank in the spirit it was intended. If you don't know, the gentleman in the picture is none other than Morrissey. I joked with C&K that Morrissey might not be so forgiving when he finds out what I've been up to. They suggested that I play him the following to pacify him. Let's see if it works. (BTW I love the redwoods in this video. I would love to visit this place.)
I want to ask the Harp Twins all sorts of Harp questions. Perhaps I could do a post on them! Ha ha. Better not... I'll just end up in more trouble no doubt ;-)
I was very pleased to stumble across this video in their extensive back catalogue. Cowgirls with harps! It doesn't get much better than this!
Update 4-Dec-2012: This was good timing. The girls have just released a CD in time for Christmas. Get it now!
Go West, young man...
I can't seem to turn around at the moment without bumping into cowboys.
10 points if you can name this blue cowboy.
I talked about H P Lovecraft's "At the Mountains of Madness" some time back. Check out this animated version of the story.
One last thing before I close this post off...
Imagine Batman, the Joker, Alien and Predator all rolled into one. This little film is incredibly well made. I know I'm not the only person wondering what happens next. My theory is that it involves dinosaurs.
Remember the picture below that I shopped of the Dark Uke? I was pondering what my next ukulele build might be and somehow Batman made it into my consciousness. As has been well documented, I eventually opted for Sharkfin rather than Batwing. I don't know why, but this picture has been turning up all over the place on Facebook this past month.
Okay... just one last thing. Talking of bats...
Isn't this picture fantastic! It's from the Austin Ukulele Society.
They've done a print run of t-shirts with this on the front. WANT! I've been in touch with Jen of AUS to see if I can get my hands on one, but so far no luck :-(
I'll keep working on it ;-)

text: I just bought a used (1135hrs) Toro Zmaster Model 74245 '94 model. Upon startup, the right hydro doesn't do a thing. After about 2 minutes of running the left side front and back eventually the left side starts to whine and then seems to work fine. I went out and mowed with it and the left side seemed sporadic(sp). It would work fine, and then lose 'power'. It seems to me like it is not keeping it's prime. But then again, I don't know this system. When I picked it up from the dealer, it was a little noisy and he said once it warms up it would be fine(like 3 minutes). Granted it was about 20 degrees outside, so I bought it, after all I assume hydro oil can thicken in cold weather the same as any other. The dealer did give me a 90 day warranty, but he is also 2 hours away, so if it is something I can fix, I would just assume do that. I searched throughout this site and can't find this problem. I'm hoping that is a good thing and I am just an idiot in this area. (Which is very likely)

Imperial Tobacco Canada v. Attorney General of Quebec [Canada] [September 28, 2015]
Tobacco companies challenged the constitutionality of the Tobacco-Related Damages and Health Care Costs Recovery Act, which allows the government to sue tobacco manufacturers to recover the health care costs for individuals with tobacco-related illnesses. The Appeals Court of Quebec upheld the constitutionality of the law and dismissed the tobacco company's appeal. The court relied, in part, on a decision from British Columbia upholding a similar law. The court found that the Quebec law did not violate the independence of the judiciary nor did it violate the tobacco companies' right to a fair trial.
Quebec Class Action [Canada] [May 27, 2015]
Two class action lawsuits were filed in Canada in 1998 against major tobacco companies; the cases were later combined. One class (Blais) involved Quebec residents with lung cancer, throat cancer, or emphysema. The other class (Letourneau) involved Quebec residents addicted to nicotine. After a lengthy trial, the court found that the tobacco companies caused injury, failed to inform customers of the risks and dangers of its products, and violated Quebec law.
In the Blais case, the court awarded moral damages (e.g., for pain and suffering) of $15.5 billion, to be paid jointly by the three tobacco companies. In the Letourneau case, although the court found that the tobacco companies were at fault, it did not award moral damages because there was not enough evidence to determine the total amount of the class members' claims. In both cases the court awarded punitive damages, which it calculated based on one year of before-tax profits for each tobacco company. In Blais, the court reduced this award to the symbolic amount of $30,000 for each defendant, representing one dollar for each death the tobacco industry causes in Canada each year. In Letourneau, the court awarded punitive damages of $131 million. The tobacco companies must make an initial deposit on the judgment of $1 billion while the appeal is pending.
Philip Morris USA v. Russo [United States] [April 02, 2015]
This lawsuit was filed by an individual alleging that smoking caused her to develop chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The lawsuit arises from a 1994 class-action lawsuit on behalf of Florida smokers against major tobacco companies (Engle v. Liggett Group, Inc.). In this decision, the court affirmed an earlier ruling allowing the plaintiff's fraud claims to continue. The court found that the fraud claims were filed within the appropriate amount of time because the earlier class action lawsuit in Engle had proven that the major tobacco companies fraudulently concealed information about the health risks of smoking.
Hess v. Philip Morris USA [United States] [April 02, 2015]
This lawsuit was filed by the family of an individual who died from a smoking-related illness; it arises from a 1994 class-action lawsuit on behalf of Florida smokers against major tobacco companies (Engle v. Liggett Group, Inc.). In this decision, the court allowed the plaintiff's fraud claim against Philip Morris to continue. The court found that the earlier class action lawsuit in Engle had proven that the major tobacco companies fraudulently concealed information about the health risks of smoking within the time frame necessary for determining the fraud claim. The court found that it was not necessary to also show that the smoker relied on those fraudulent claims during the relevant period for such claims to move forward.
Coppinger v. Gray [United States] [March 02, 2015]
A homeowner sued his neighbor for exposure to secondhand smoke drifting into his house. The court granted a preliminary injunction ordering the neighbor not to smoke any substances, including tobacco and marijuana, on the premises. Additionally, the neighbor must ensure that no guests smoke and must ask anyone who violates the order prohibiting smoking to leave the property. The order was to stay in place until it was revoked or until the court reached a final decision in the case. Ultimately, the case was dismissed after the party who initiated the suit dropped its claim.
Maclean and District Bowling Club Co-operative v. Green [Australia] [August 14, 2014]
The respondent in this appeal, Ms Green, contracted lung cancer as a result of exposure to environmental tobacco smoke in the workplace and her own tobacco use. She was exposed to passive smoking in the workplace for a period of about 26 years until she was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2002, and smoked somewhere between 10-50 cigarettes a day for a period of 17 years up to 1992. She was successful in her claim for workers compensation before an Arbtitrator, who found that (among other things) exposure to smoke in the workplace was a substantially contributing factor to the contraction of her disease. This was an appeal from that decision.
The respondent insurer alleged that (1) there was insufficient evidence before the Arbitrator to conclude that exposure to passive smoking in the workplace substantially contributed to Ms Green's disease; and (2) the Arbitrator gave insufficient reasons for his decision.
In this decision, Deputy President Roche found that there was sufficient evidence for the Arbitrator to conclude that Ms Green's employment was a substantial contributing factor to her injury. However, Deputy President Roche agreed with the appellant that the Arbitrator gave insufficient reasons for his decision, and therefore remitted the matter to a different Arbitrator for re-determination.
Caronia et al. v. Philip Morris USA, Inc. [United States] [December 17, 2013]
Plaintiffs, current and/or former smokers with histories of 20 pack-years or more and who aren't yet sick, brought a class action suit against Philip Morris USA requesting a court-supervised medical monitoring program funded by the tobacco manufacturer to assist in the early detection of lung cancer. Plaintiffs' claims based on negligence, strict liability, and breach of implied warranty were previously dismissed. The state's highest court held that there is no independent equitable cause of action for medical monitoring under New York state law. The court cited the well-established rule that a plaintiff must sustain a physical injury before he or she is able to recover "reasonably anticipated" consequential damages. The court reasoned that it is "speculative, at best, whether asymptomatic plaintiffs will ever contract a disease." The threat of future harm alone is insufficient to impose tort liability in this context.
The court also cited several policy reasons behind its decision, including the potential for a flood of frivolous claims and the difficulty in implementing and administering a medical surveillance program.
Walker v. R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company [United States] [October 31, 2013]
An appeals court upheld judgments in favor of two smokers who sued R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company (RJR) for injuries caused by smoking. The court found that RJR had not been deprived of its right to due process when two juries awarded money damages to the survivors of two smokers. The appeals court found that RJR had a full and fair opportunity to be heard in an earlier class action lawsuit against major tobacco companies (Engle v. Liggett Group, Inc.) and that it was permissible to apply the findings from this class-action regarding tobacco companies' liability in later lawsuits. Therefore, the court ruled that individuals in later lawsuits need only prove causation and damages specific to their case. They do not have to retry the issue of whether tobacco companies are liable on issues such as misrepresenting the health effects of smoking and producing a defective product.
The Government of Saskatchewan v. Rothmans, et al [Canada] [October 01, 2013]
The government of Saskatchewan sued a number of tobacco companies seeking to recover the health care costs of treating citizens with tobacco-related disease. The government alleged that the tobacco companies engaged in a decades-long conspiracy to mislead Saskatchewan about the health risks of smoking and to suppress information about the dangers of smoking. Three of the tobacco companies sought to dismiss the claim, arguing that the court did not have sufficient jurisdiction over them. The court rejected the tobacco companies' argument and allowed the claim to proceed. The court found that there was enough evidence to show a real and substantial connection between Saskatchewan and the tobacco companies.
Evans v. Lorillard Tobacco Co. [United States] [June 11, 2013]
The son of a woman who died of lung cancer sued Lorillard Tobacco Company for wrongful death. A Massachusetts court awarded both compensatory and punitive damages to the son and to his mother's estate. The appeals court upheld the finding of wrongful death based on Lorillard's breach of the implied warranty of merchantability. The court said it was reasonable for a jury to find that Newport cigarettes were unreasonably dangerous (known as a "design defect") and that Lorillard failed to provide adequate warning about the health hazards and addictiveness of Newport cigarettes prior to 1970 (known as a "warning defect"). However, the appeals court eliminated the punitive damages, which were based on the claim for negligence, which the court found it could not uphold for procedural reasons. The appeals court remanded (sent back to the lower court) the issue of whether Lorillard is liable for punitive damages based on violation of Massachusetts' wrongful death law.

The all-wheel drive Kizashi from Suzuki was first presented to the media back in July 2009. With a composed platform, a rigid structure, and a suspension that has been tuned on Nurburgring, this midsize sedan has shown that it has a trick or two up its sleeve. It is powered by a DOHC 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers 185 horsepower, the highest for the four-cylinder class.
No wonder the Kizashi has been praised not only by the media but even by consumers. Additional proof of this is that it garnered first place in the 2010 Vehicle Satisfaction survey conducted by AutoPacific. By August 2010, the Kizashi will now be in a category where Bonneville streamliners belong.
To make this possible, different improvements were done on the Kizashi by Tom Habrzyk and Richard Holdener -- both from Advanced Product Engineering. The Bonneville Kizashi will then be driven by Sam Mitani Road & Track and will participate in the Blown Gas Coupe group, the actual race of which will be held in Wendover, Utah, on August 14.
This version of the Kizashi hopes to reach the 200 mph level and when it does, it will become part of what is already an amazing motorsport history. The Bonneville Kizashi was started by using a pre-production prototype of the Kizashi. Official construction of the Bonneville version started in 2010.
In order to build this model, the first step was to disassemble its interior in order to highlight the basis of the initial design. Using the principle of "premium without the premium," a bare metal working environment was all that was needed. After all the exclusive appointments were removed, the Holdener/Habrzyk team started installing the necessary features. First they began with the SCTA-approved roll cage then followed it with the aluminum bulkhead in the rear portion.
The racing seat, seat harness, and finally window net were then installed. Once the improvements to the cockpit were done, the next step was the engine. The team built on the performance tradition that was based on the company's first ever win around 55 years ago on Mt. Fuji. Similar to what was done to the cockpit, the spare motor was also disassembled in order to confirm the standard measurements. The cylinder head meanwhile was flowed and then ported.
To improve the performance of the Bonneville Kizashi, the team used a new intake manifold. This had a tuned 'long tube' header as well as the forged rods and pistons for better durability even at high rpm. The addition of the Turbonetics turbocharger gives the Kizashi a boost of up to 20 pounds.
However, the higher horsepower meant that air-to-water intercooling, as well as snow water/methanol injection, was needed. The output requirements also meant that a new ACT Clutch and Pressure Plate were required too. A scattershield was also added.
An oil pan was welded to provide a drain fitting while a 3.5-inch exhaust was constructed behind the turbocharger. This makes the turbo motor have high-boost and high-rpm while extra protection is provided with Lucas Oil's fully synthetic 5W-20 racing oil.
With the use of the new coilovers, the steel wheels seam that has been welded, and even the 15x7 Goodyear Front Runner rubber, transform the Kizashi platform, and the Nurburgring lineage, to a salt-specific recipe. Keeping its nose planted is the presence of the air dam and the use of the hood pins and window straps to make sure that both the hood and the glass are kept in position. A parachute was also included to help the Kizashi come to an emergency stop form high speed.
The dual fire system gives the needed sense of assurance for the Mitani, especially the 900 boosted horsepower and in front of the high-speed capsule by just a few feet. Since the entire process was finished by the end of July, the over-the-road testing on a closed course by a professional driver and the chassis dyno tune was scheduled to occur during the first week of August, which was a rather narrow window.
After that it is all the way to Bonneville where it will be treated to one week of racing starting from August 14 and ending by August 20. If everything goes according to plan and the Kizashi performs as expected of it, the SCTA will now have two additional members in its 200 mph class which are the 2010 Suzuki Bonneville Kizashi and Road & Track's Sam Mitani.

A Tucson man was arrested Friday after deputies found 15 pounds of marijuana in a secret compartment during a traffic stop.
Alejandro Ortiz, 22, was driving to Phoenix with his wife and 12-day-old baby when he was pulled over on Interstate 10 near Casa Grande by deputies from the Pinal County Sheriff's Office. Deputies pulled him over because the 2007 Cadillac Escalade had "excessively dark side-window tint" and was not insured, Tamra Ingersoll, a Sheriff's Office spokeswoman, said in a news release.
"The driver was acting nervous and raised the deputy's suspicions," she said. "The deputy returned to his vehicle and deployed his K-9 partner. The dog immediately alerted on a portion of the SUV."
A search turned up a secret compartment inside the SUV that contained the marijuana, which had a street value of nearly $10,000, Ingersoll said.
The SUV was seized and Ortiz was booked into the Pinal County jail. He faces charges of possession and transportation of marijuana.
His wife was released at the scene with their baby because deputies could not tie her to the marijuana, Ingersoll said.
"The driver was acting nervous and raised the deputy's suspicions."

6 Unlicensed Contractors "Stung" by the CSLB
Working as an unlicensed contractor is a risk not worth taking. Six Salinas-based contractors were caught in a sting operation conducted by the Contractors State License Board (CSLB) of California. They were found through online ads in various websites, such as Craigslist.
The investigators pretended to be potential customers who requested bids for a landscaping project. Under the current law, unlicensed contractors may not bid on projects larger than $500, whereas the highest bid got as high as $15,000. Bids of that sort can only be executed by CSLB-licensed contractors.
Since this is their first conviction, the six contractors are facing fines of up to $5,000 or jail time for up to six months. And since their online ads did not specify that they are not licensed contractors, they were also cited for illegal advertising.
