The corruption case against former state senate majority leader Pedro Espada Jr. continued Friday as his long time employee was cross-examined.
Espada's lawyer tried to discredit former Soundview Health Care worker Maria Cruz, who testified Thursday that the former state senator spent the organizations funds lavishly.
An Espada family tree was also introduced as evidence, showing a vast network of relatives and friends that worked at the health clinic and sat on its board.
Pictures from the birthday party prosecutors say Espada paid for with health clinic money were displayed, and jurors saw the Puerto Rico ocean-view condo where the former lawmaker allegedly stayed at with clinic money.
Espada faces up to 10 years in prison for the embezzlement counts, and five-years for conspiracy charges.

Washington State Liquor Control Board may require stores to report theft
on December 5, 2012 @ 5:31 am (Updated: 9:57 am - 12/5/12 )A recent KIRO Radio investigation found some retailers are losing $1,000 a day to liquor theft. The stores say those numbers are overblown, but there is no way to track the actual numbers because stores don't report their losses. That could now change.
The Washington State Liquor Control Board is considering whether it should require retailers to report their liquor thefts, from one bottle going out the door, to a gang of thieves making off with a shopping cart of booze.
Brian Smith, with the liquor board, said they were asked to take this step by the Washington Association of Sheriff's and Police Chiefs, and he believes it's a good idea.
"It's a step in the right direction to be able to get some sort of handle on the actual amount of liquor that's been going out because it's not typically reported," he said.
Law enforcement wants the data so it can figure out how to combat the theft.
"We want some data so that we can then sit down and have some meaningful discussion rather than guessing at it or hearing anecdotes," said Mitch Barker, executive director of the association.
Then the police can start working with the stores on prevention.
"It's a real public safety issue because it's not just a bottle here and a bottle there," said Smith. "What we're hearing is people stealing a lot at once. It gets out on the black market and that's where kids have access to it and it's untaxed and sold that way."
"I think once we have it, it will tell us some things, either that there's no real problem or it's no greater than theft or shoplifting of beef jerky. I think it will give us the numbers. I think it will give us locations."
The liquor board will consider the idea for the first time Wednesday, and mandatory reporting could be required of all retailers by early next year.
Retailers aren't sold on the idea. They say publicizing the numbers could tell thieves which stores are more vulnerable to theft.
Chris loves the rush of covering breaking news and works hard to try to make sense of it all while telling stories about real people in extraordinary circumstances.

In 1984, the General Assembly approved legislation to establish the Assistance to Victims of and Witnesses to Crimes and Aid to Law Enforcement Act. As currently enacted, the Act mandates a surcharge on fines imposed for felonies, misdemeanors, juvenile offenses, class 1 and 2 traffic offenses, and certain traffic infractions. The funds collected are used for grants to agencies that provide services to crime victims within the local judicial district in which the monies are collected.
A five-member board, appointed by the Chief Judge, in each judicial district accepts applications and makes decisions regarding the use of VALE funds in that judicial district. There are two areas of priority for local VALE funding. One priority establishes funding for programs that implement the Victim Rights Act. The other priority is funding for victim and witness services including, but not limited to: crisis intervention services, referrals of victims to appropriate community services and victim compensation programs, and counseling.
The Office for Victim Programs publishes a report every year detailing the activities of how these grant funds are expended throughout the state. Please see the Annual Report link on the right of this page.
To find out more information about a specific local VALE program please click on the local VALE Administrators link on the right of this page.

text: [JURIST] Leading Tuesday's international brief, last minute opposition from the UN representatives of both Russia and China has blocked the imposition of proposed UN sanctions [JURIST report] against four Sudanese officials accused of intentionally delaying the peace process in the war-torn Darfur region [JURIST news archive]. Russian Ambassador to the UN Andrey Denisov [official profile] told reporters that Russia felt that the current peace negotiations hosted by the African Union (AU) [official website] would be threatened by the imposition of sanctions, while China expressed its continued position that sanctions were an unsuccessful means of enforcing changes in government action. The US and UK missions to the UN are proposing introduction of the sanctions as a formal resolution, which would require the use of an official veto by Russia or China, instead of them being able to derail the sanctions by simply raising objections to the Sudan Sanctions Committee's actions. JURIST's Paper Chase has continuing coverage of the United Nations [JURIST news archive]. The Sudan Tribune has local coverage. AP has more.In other international legal news...Indonesia's Supreme Court has agreed to hold a second case review of the three Christian men sentenced to death for masterminding violent attacks on the local Muslim populace in Poso in 2001. The three men have been convicted and sentenced to death and already had their case reviewed by the Supreme Court once before, the maximum allowed by Indonesian criminal procedure law. The Indonesian attorney general's office has issued a stay on the execution while they prepare for the process, but has agreed to keep the stay in place until the second case review has been completed. The attorney general's office told reporters however that because the law only allowed one case review, nothing the Supreme Court did would change the executive branch's decision to carry out the sentence. Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono [BBC profile] has already rejected a plea for clemency from the convicted men. JURIST's Paper Chase has continuing coverage of Indonesia [JURIST news archive]. The Jakarta Post has local coverage.The Supreme Court of India [official website] has refused a request to issue a stop-work order for government construction of the Sardar Sarovar dam [official website] on the Narmanda River, but has given the Indian government until May 1 to prepare documents demonstrating that it has undertaken sufficient reimbursement and relocation procedures for individuals, villages and communities ousted by the dam's construction. If the court finds that the government has not met the burden of adequately compensating those forced to move, it has indicated that it will issue a work-stoppage order until the government complies. The dam is a key interior project that is designed to help bring significant amounts of hydro-electric power to the already power-starved sub-continent. The Calcutta Telegraph has local coverage. BBC News has more.In a move remarkably similar to last year's violent confrontation between Zimbabwean police and illegal street vendors [JURIST report], the south African nation of Malawi [government website, CIA backgrounder] has notified its own street vendors that it will not hesitate to use police and military troops to enforce a recent executive order requiring all street business to be conducted only within certain authorized areas of the capital city of Lilongwe. Early attempts to secure a court ruling to place a hold on the order have failed and police broke up a street vendor protest yesterday with tear gas as the vendors congregated to pray for the right to continue their trading on the main thoroughfares of Lilongwe. BBC News has more.

The command staff and soldiers at Camp Shelby are hoping to make members of the military and civilians more aware of domestic violence. Wednesday, Camp Shelby commander Col. William B. Smith signed a proclamation recognizing October as National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. It's the first time the post has taken such a stance on the issue. Camp Shelby officials say it's part of a zero tolerance policy for acts of domestic violence. Col. Smith was joined in a signing ceremony by victims' rights advocates and survivors of domestic violence.
"The Army has a very detailed program for sexual assault prevention and domestic violence prevention and we are carrying that just a step further here at Camp Shelby, in an effort to prevent those types of issues here," said Col. Smith.
"I think it's going to help, as far as making sure that the soldiers and their family members know we're not going to tolerate any type of domestic violence," said Stephanie Dillon, sexual assault response coordinator for Camp Shelby.
Dillon said in September, more than 1,300 soldiers and civilian employees at Camp Shelby were trained to be aware of and respond to domestic violence, sexual harrassment and sexual assault.

Broadway Theatre:August Wilson Theatre245 West 52nd Street New York, NY 10019 Las Vegas Theatre:Paris TheatreParis Las Vegas 3645 Las Vegas Blvd South Las Vegas, NV 89109 About the Show:Jersey Boys, the Tony-winning Best Musical of 2006, has established itself as one of the top shows on the theatre scene around the world. It has won dozens of major awards, and since it exploded onto Broadway in 2005, it has spawned productions in London, Chicago, Las Vegas, Toronto, Melbourne, and Sydney, and has toured very successfully across North America. Audiences are enchanted at how the classic music of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons is combined with dazzling staging, costumes, and period dancing. Older audiences love the nostalgic feeling they get from hearing these songs revived, and younger audiences get the chance to experience the music that defined a generation. The score features over 30 songs, including favorites such as "Sherry," "I'm in the Mood for Love/Moody's Mood for Love," "Walk Like a Man," C'Mon Marianne," "December 1963 (Oh, What a Night)," "Bye Bye Baby," "Rag Doll," and many more! The smooth sound of The Four Seasons combined with the dramatic story of the band's history makes for a truly satisfying theatre experience. Get your Jersey Boys tickets today and spend the rest of the night humming those classic tunes! Plot Synopsis:The story of Jersey Boys is divided into four sections, one for each season, each narrated by a different band member. The first section, Spring, is narrated by Tommy DeVito. The show opens with a performance of the 2000 pop-rap song "Ces soirees-la," which Tommy explains is a cover of the Four Seasons' "December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)." He begins to tell the story of the origins of the band, telling of how he starts out in a group called "The Variety Band" with his brother, Nick DeVito, and friend Nick Massi. He eventually discovers a teenaged Frankie Castelluccio (later changing his last name to Valli), and takes him under his wing. As Tommy runs into trouble and is in and out of prison, Tommy and Frankie develop a relationship with the mob, and Frankie meets and marries Mary DelGado. The band still struggles with finding its identity, but one day a friend mentions a talented singer-songwriter who he thinks would make a good addition to the band: Bob Gaudio. The second section, Summer, is narrated by Bob Gaudio. He tells of how he meets the other boys and as immediately impressed by Frankie's voice. As the boys begin to collaborate on Bob's songs, they negotiate a partnership and are signed to a contract to sing backup. When producer Bob Crewe insists that the band find an identity, they finally name themselves The Four Seasons and come out with a few hit songs, including "Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry," and "Walk Like a Man." As the band's success forces them to tour, Frankie's marriage to Mary becomes severely strained. One day after a concert, the band is approached by a loan shark demanding a substantial sum of money that he claims Tommy owes him. The Fall section is narrated by Nick Massi. He explains that Bob was so focused on the band's musical success that he couldn't see how much trouble the band had been in. Tommy had been racking up debts for some time, and the group's financial trouble strains the relationship between Tommy and Bob. Nick sees that Tommy's jealousy of Frankie has put a strain on their relationship as well. When Tommy's debt becomes too much, Frankie reaches out to the mob for help. The agreement is that Tommy must stay in Las Vegas where he can be watched, so the band tours as a trio, but Nick becomes increasingly disillusioned. The final section, Winter, is narrated by Frankie. He says that although he feels grateful to Tommy for all that he'd done for him, he realizes the relationship was flawed and he understands why the group has had such hard times. After Frankie and Bob find new talent to keep the band a foursome, Bob reveals he has never really wanted to be onstage and thinks Frankie should be a solo star. Frankie struggles with a strained relationship with his daughter, Francine, and his girlfriend, Lorraine. Despite his personal troubles, he finds continued success with Bob's songs, including the hit "Can't Take My Eyes Off You." Intrigued? The story of Jersey Boys has plenty more surprises. Get your Jersey Boys tickets today to see the whole story!

He released I Thought U Knew for I.R.S. in 1993, which also failed to click. 2000 saw the release of Candyman's Knockin' Boots 2001: A Sex Odyssey, an album featuring his 1990 hit single remixed and new cuts as well. ~ Ron Wynn

Aaron Ciechanover pronunction (help·info) ah-hah-ROHN chee-HAH-noh-vehr[needs IPA] (אהרן צ'חנובר; born October 1, 1947) is an Israeli biologist, who won the Nobel prize in Chemistry for characterizing the method that cells use to degrade and recycle proteins using ubiquitin.
Ciechanover was born in Haifa, Mandatory Palestine, a year before the establishment of Israel. He is the son of Bluma (Lubashevsky), a teacher of English, and Yitzhak Ciechanover, an office worker.[1] His family had immigrated from Poland before the World War II.
He earned a master's degree in science in 1971 and graduated from Hadassah Medical School in Jerusalem in 1974. He received his doctorate in biochemistry in 1981 from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa before conducting postdoctoral research in the laboratory of Harvey Lodish at the Whitehead Institute at MIT from 1981-1984. He is currently a Technion Distinguished Research Professor in the Ruth and Bruce Rappaport Faculty of Medicine and Research Institute at the Technion.
Ciechanover is a member of the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities, the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, and is a foreign associate of the United States National Academy of Sciences.
In 2005, he was voted the co-31st-greatest Israeli of all time, in a poll by the Israeli news website Ynet to determine whom the general public considered the 200 Greatest Israelis.[2] As one of Israel's first Nobel Laureates in Science, he is honored in playing a central role in the history of Israel and in the history of the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology.

- In 2003, he was awarded the Israel Prize, for biology.[3][4]
- in 2004, he was awarded Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his discovery with Avram Hershko and Irwin Rose, of ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation.[5][6] The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway has a critical role in maintaining the homeostasis of cells and is believed to be involved in the development and progression of diseases such as: cancer, muscular and neurological diseases, immune and inflammatory responses.

Effects of Sphingomyelin Headgroup Size on Interactions with Ceramide Biophysical Journal, Volume 104, Issue 3, 5 February 2013, Pages 604-612 Ibai Artetxe, Christian Sergelius, Mayuko Kurita, Shou Yamaguchi, Shigeo Katsumura, J. Peter Slotte and Terhi Maula Abstract Sphingomyelins (SMs) and ceramides are known to interact favorably in bilayer membranes. Because ceramide lacks a headgroup that could shield its hydrophobic body from unfavorable interactions with water, accommodation of ceramide under the larger phosphocholine headgroup of SM could contribute to their favorable interactions. To elucidate the role of SM headgroup for SM/ceramide interactions, we explored the effects of reducing the size of the phosphocholine headgroup (removing one, two, or three methyls on the choline moiety, or the choline moiety itself). Using differential scanning calorimetry and fluorescence spectroscopy, we found that the size of the SM headgroup had no marked effect on the thermal stability of ordered domains formed by SM analog/palmitoyl ceramide (PCer) interactions. In more complex bilayers composed of a fluid glycerophospholipid, SM analog, and PCer, the thermal stability and molecular order of the laterally segregated gel domains were roughly identical despite variation in SM headgroup size. We suggest that that the association between PCer and SM analogs was stabilized by ceramide's aversion for disordered phospholipids, by interfacial hydrogen bonding between PCer and the SM analogs, and by attractive van der Waals' forces between saturated chains of PCer and SM analogs.

Insight into the Putative Specific Interactions between Cholesterol, Sphingomyelin, and Palmitoyl-Oleoyl Phosphatidylcholine Biophysical Journal, Volume 92, Issue 4, 15 February 2007, Pages 1125-1137 Jussi Aittoniemi, Perttu S. Niemelä, Marja T. Hyvönen, Mikko Karttunen and Ilpo Vattulainen Abstract The effects of cholesterol (Chol) on phospholipid bilayers include ordering of the fatty acyl chains, condensing of the lipids in the bilayer plane, and promotion of the liquid-ordered phase. These effects depend on the type of phospholipids in the bilayer and are determined by the nature of the underlying molecular interactions. As for Chol, it has been shown to interact more favorably with sphingomyelin than with most phosphatidylcholines, which in given circumstances leads to formation of lateral domains. However, the exact origin and nature of Chol-phospholipid interactions have recently been subjects of speculation. We examine interactions between Chol, palmitoylsphingomyelin (PSM) and palmitoyl-oleoyl-phosphatidylcholine (POPC) in hydrated lipid bilayers by extensive atom-scale molecular dynamics simulations. We employ a tailored lipid configuration: Individual PSM and Chol monomers, as well as PSM-Chol dimers, are embedded in a POPC lipid bilayer in the liquid crystalline phase. Such a setup allows direct comparison of dimeric and monomeric PSMs and Chol, which ultimately shows how the small differences in PSM and POPC structure can lead to profoundly different interactions with Chol. Our analysis shows that direct hydrogen bonding between PSM and Chol does not provide an adequate explanation for their putative specific interaction. Rather, a combination of charge-pairing, hydrophobic, and van der Waals interactions leads to a lower tilt in PSM neighboring Chol than in Chol with only POPC neighbors. This implies improved Chol-induced ordering of PSM's chains over POPC's chains. These findings are discussed in the context of the hydrophobic mismatch concept suggested recently.

Sterols Have Higher Affinity for Sphingomyelin than for Phosphatidylcholine Bilayers even at Equal Acyl-Chain Order Biophysical Journal, Volume 100, Issue 11, 8 June 2011, Pages 2633-2641 Max Lönnfors, Jacques P.F. Doux, J. Antoinette Killian, Thomas K.M. Nyholm and J. Peter Slotte Abstract The interaction between cholesterol and phospholipids in bilayer membranes is important for the formation and maintenance of membrane structure and function. However, cholesterol does not interact favorably with all types of phospholipids and, for example, prefers more ordered sphingomyelins (SMs) over phosphatidylcholines (PCs). The reason for this preference is not clear. Here we have studied whether acyl-chain order could be responsible for the preferred sterol interaction with SMs. Acyl-chain order was deduced from diphenylhexatriene anisotropy and from the deuterium order parameter obtained by 2H-NMR on bilayers made from either 14:0/14:0(d27)-PC, or 14:0(d27)-SM. Sterol/phospholipid interaction was determined from sterol bilayer partitioning. Cholestatrienol (CTL) was used as a fluorescence probe for cholesterol, because its relative membrane partitioning is similar to cholesterol. When CTL was allowed to reach equilibrium partitioning between cyclodextrins and unilamellar vesicles made from either 14:0/14:0-PC or 14:0-SM, the molar-fraction partitioning coefficient (Kx) was approximately twofold higher for SM bilayers than for PC bilayers. This was even the case when the temperature in the SM samples was raised to achieve equal acyl-chain order, as determined from 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) anisotropy and the deuterium order parameter. Although the Kx did increase with acyl-chain order, the higher Kx for SM bilayers was always evident. At equal acyl-chain order parameter (DPH anisotropy), the Kx was also higher for 14:0-SM bilayers than for bilayers made from either 14:0/15:0-PC or 15:0-/14:0-PC, suggesting that minor differences in chain length or molecular asymmetry are not responsible for the difference in Kx. We conclude that acyl-chain order affects the bilayer affinity of CTL (and thus cholesterol), but that it is not the cause for the preferred affinity of sterols for SMs over matched PCs. Instead, it is likely that the interfacial properties of SMs influence and stabilize interactions with sterols in bilayer membranes. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (550 kb) |

Sphingomyelins (SMs) and sterols are important constituents of the plasma membrane and have also been identified as major lipid components in membrane rafts. Using SM analogs with decreasing headgroup methylation, we systemically analyzed the effect of headgroup size on membrane properties and interactions with cholesterol. An increase in headgroup size resulted in a decrease in the main phase transition. Atom-scale molecular-dynamics simulations were in agreement with the fluorescence anisotropy experiments, showing that molecular areas increased and acyl chain order decreased with increasing headgroup size. Furthermore, the transition temperatures were constantly higher for SM headgroup analogs compared to corresponding phosphatidylcholine headgroup analogs. The sterol affinity for phospholipid bilayers was assessed using a sterol-partitioning assay and an increased headgroup size increased sterol affinity for the bilayer, with a higher sterol affinity for SM analogs as compared to phosphatidylcholine analogs. Moreover, the size of the headgroup affected the formation and composition of cholesterol-containing ordered domains. Palmitoyl-SM (the largest headgroup) seemed to attract more cholesterol into ordered domains than the other SM analogs with smaller headgroups. The ordering and condensing effect of cholesterol on membrane lipids was also largest for palmitoyl-SM as compared to the smaller SM analogs. The results show that the size of the SM headgroup is crucially important for SM-SM and SM-sterol interactions. Our results further emphasize that interfacial electrostatic interactions are important for stabilizing cholesterol interactions with SMs.
