A new 30-kilowatt (kW) liquid cooled standby generator from GE Generator Systems is designed to provide commercial-grade features to residential home users.
The standby generator is designed to ensure home life can carry on as normal during a power outage, no matter how long, according to Amanda Grandy, marketing manager for Briggs & Stratton Standby Power. Briggs & Stratton is the exclusive licensee of GE Generator Systems. "It's the tailor-made backup power solution for homeowners with more electrical needs than our smaller generators can meet, but who are still seeking a more economical option than our larger 35-kW unit," Grandy said.
The generator is powered by a 16-valve, 1.6-liter, inline-4 Briggs & Stratton engine, specifically engineered for the generator and designed to delivers an automotive-style, dependable engine. The engine runs on natural gas or liquid propane vapor.
The unit's control panel has a scrolling LED display, designed for easy-to-read information and troubleshooting. A basic wireless monitor comes standard with the unit.
An infohub wireless monitoring system is also available as an option, allowing homeowners check generator's status on smartphones or other web-enabled devices.
A streamlined footprint is designed to make installation easier and less expensive.
A Symphony II power management system manages the home's power needs automatically during a power outage, electronically controlling electrical loads and providing a managed whole-house power solution. This system gives homeowners access to all their electrical household appliances instead of just selected appliances. The system can be partnered with a GE dual 200-amp transfer switch to further reduce installation time and cost.
The unit's enclosure is engineered to be commercial-grade and is made of automotive-grade, corrosion-resistant galvanneal steel. GE said the hinged roof is exclusive to the liquid-cooled generator segment, with gas springs for easy opening. Ventilation is configured to push exhaust up and away from the home and surrounding landscaping. Removable front and back panels are designed to make access easier and maintenance faster.
This generator is rated at 30 kW in accordance with UL (Underwriters Laboratories) 2200 (stationary engine generator assemblies) and CSA (Canadian Standards Association) standard C22.2 No. 100-04 (motors and generators).

Objectively, the Ritter probably deserves three starts for being a clean, fairly comfortable, well-located budget-tourist hotel, but it loses a star for having a horribly misleading website that makes out it is a refurbished and comfortable refuge for the leisure traveller.

Quotes & Highlights
Check out Mary Mack's website.
Folk humorist Mary Mack spends half her time convincing her Minnesotan mother it's okay for her daughter to be a comedian and the other half touring the country in her sweet, $400 Dodge Neon — affectionately referred to as "Street Heat."
Mack and her mandolin sing-alongs have been featured on the nationally syndicated Bob and Tom Radio Show, XM's National Lampoon's Comedy Network, and Minnesota's Polka Spotlight. After winning the 2005 California's Funniest Female Contest, she went on to appear in the Vancouver Comedy Fest (2007), HBO's Andy Kaufman Awards (2007), Comedy Central's Live at Gotham and NBC's Last Comic Standing.
Mack started her career in Nashville and now splits her time between Los Angeles and Minneapolis, where she recorded her live album Either You Wake Up or You Don't at her home club, Acme Comedy Company.
Her endearing stage presence and off-kilter, musical surprises, stemming from her background as former music teacher and polka bandleader, make her popular in up to three non-adjacent counties in Wisconsin.

News, thoughts and more from the world of college sports across the nation and Long Island.
Seawolves' Anthony Jackson out indefinitely
For the second straight game, Stony Brook was without point guard Anthony Jackson, and following the Seawolves' 75-48 blowout of Boston University Tuesday night at Pritchard Gymnasium, coach Steve Pikiell said there is no timetable for Jackson's return.
Losing Jackson, SBU's second-leading scorer (11.7) and leader in three-point field goals made (30), for an extended period is no small thing. But the Seawolves responded with two straight home wins over Hartford and BU and face another tough test Friday at Vermont.
Freshman Carson Puriefoy (pictured) scored 15 in his first start against Hartford and then added nine points and four assists in the win over Boston. In addition, Pikiell has gotten quality backcourt minutes from Marcus Rouse off the bench, and even seldom-used reserve Ben Resner has filled in capably.
"I play a lot of guys, and I have a lot of faith in my bench," Pikiell said. "You just never know when it's your time [to play]. I want my guys ready, and they certainly have stepped up in his absence. He's a major loss for us because he's having a real good year. Tre [Puriefoy] is getting quality minutes and doing a real good job, and Ben is backing him up and doing a good job."
Gesturing toward guard Dave Coley and forward Tommy Brenton at the postgame press conference, Pikiell added, "These two guys have stepped up and done a great job of filling in and taking on bigger defensive roles and bigger offensive roles."
Coley tied his career-high with 21 points against the Terriers while holding leading BU scorer D.J. Irving to just six points. Brenton looked for his shot more often on offense, scoring all 12 of his points in the first half, and he added 10 rebounds and four assists.
Pikiell said Jackson is nursing the dreaded high-ankle sprain, and he ruled him out of the Vermont contest. Asked when Jackson might return, Pikiell said, "We'll just keep going game-by-game and see what happens. He hasn't practiced once [since being injured]."

Indradyuma Maharaj,
Please accept my humble obeisances.
I have to admit..I struggle to finish my rounds and sometimes i dont have enough taste for Kirtan and the Holy Names.
But each time i read your diary, i can't help but cry when i read about the heartfelt sencerity of devotees (Actinya-sakti) and their extreme enthusiasm for preaching.
You renew my enthusiasm for Krishna Consciousness completely with each entry you make on your diary.
All glories to your service!

Hotel Grodek is an excellent small hotel, with no detail left unattended. Its location is far better than any other hotel I saw in Krakow -- perfectly quiet, only two short blocks to the main square with easy access to the Jewish quarter. The room was excellent and the service was excellent. Perfect in every respect for my wife and I. Would go back in a heartbeat. - Geoffrey
The hotel is right inside the historic and beautiful old part of Krakow. It's a little gem: absolutely immaculately clean, super friendly, and well situated. The buffet breakfasts includes a choice of eggs, cheese, meats, cereal, yoghurt and fresh fruit. Something for everyone. I would deffinitely recommend it. - Anonymous
Clean, modern and well kitted out. Wi-fi for free is superb and very unusual. Staff were very helpful and offered great support regarding what to do and getting around. They also arranged taxi transfer to / from the airport which was great. - Anonymous
The apartment was central to all amenities and away from the busier squares but very close to the many squares,restaurants and markets. The view was superb and facilities were more than I expected. I was pleasantly surprised. Security was excellent, doors had double locks and each apartment had keys for the lift and the shared door (between 2 apartments) free safe and internet access- great!! - Annette
Beautiful hotel we got a free upgrade to a room with a balcony looking
out to the castle. Huge bathroom with free standing shower. Cheap mini
bar. Great location equal distance between the Jewish quarter and the
old town square. Less than a ten minute walk. Breakfast typical
continental Buffet. There was a bottle of cava on ice beside the orange
juice ;-) also you could order to make different types of egg breakfasts
free of charge! Free wi fi, free mini snacks in the restaurant voucher
when we - Anonymous
Excellent location, within walking distance of the main square. Very clean, comfortable rooms and really friendly staff. Excellent little bar for meeting up before going out. Overall brilliant hotel for a city break and excellent value for money. - Anonymous
Our apartment , despite being a further 10mins walk from reception, was well equipped / set up, very comfortable and warm and ideal for a couple with an adult child. The central location made it easy for us to find all the promiment / key points to visit. When we could not get Internet access, the person on reception lent us a 'dongle' to enable access. - Anonymous
Excellent apartment and ideally located to bus/train station and not too far from the Old Town.
Apartment had all mod cons one could ask for: home away from home. - Anonymous
Great staff! Arrived at 7 am, and the receptionist arrived early to let
me in. She also took plenty of time to give me great advice on what to
see/do in Krakow. Also my room was ready upon arrival early in the
morning. The staff of Komorowski really go the extra mile on service and
arranging things for you.
Rooms were very nice.
Even before arrival the staff was busy trying to arrange everything and provide information.
The combination of luxury rooms and a hostel-like atmosphere are unique. - Anonymous
The Staff where brilliant and the so was the property, we originally booked the 6 room however they also offered a seperate room for us just so we could have 2 bathrooms.
Every day and night they where helpful even when they let us in the aprtments at 5 in the morning after a heavy night. If you looking for a place bang in the centre seconds from all the best bars and restaurants this is the place for you.
Wonderful place. The apartment was simply incredible - tastefully designed mixing modern - Anonymous

:: Home > Business > High Japanese demand for Austrian expertise
29. 03. 12. - 18:00
29. 03. 12. - 18:00
Austrian firms sold more products and services in Japan than ever before last year.
The Austrian Economy Chamber (WKO) announced that the value of exports to the Asian island state rose by 26 per cent to 1.3 billion Euros last year. Officials said the natural and nuclear disasters which hit the country around one year ago caused an increasing demand for Austrian know how.
Tens of thousands of people lost their lives when a tsunami devastated vast parts of Japan – which was also rattled by a massive earthquake – last March. Austrian green energy expertise is in great demand in the country following the incidents at Fukushima nuclear power plant. However, Austrian firms specialising in construction and infrastructure restoration are busy in Japan these days as well.
WKO experts estimate the amount of Austrian exports will range around last year's figures in 2012. The need to rebuild many regions of Japan would cause intense demand for Austrian workforce and technology for another three years or more, they said.
Around 40,000 Austrian enterprises are engaged in export operations, up from just 15,000 in 2002. They sold goods and services worth 122.5 billion Euros abroad last year. This figure means a new annual record, according to the WKO. The vast majority of the export business (80 per cent) happens within Europe. Firms based in Germany and Italy are the most important trading partners for the Austrian economy.
WKO chiefs rejected claims that especially the export activities of companies with high workforce levels were prospering. They stressed that six in 10 firms which get in touch about launching foreign operations these days had 20 employees or fewer. Asked for its target for 2015, the WKO identified taking the 200-billion-Euro hurdle as far as the overall value of Austrian exports were regarded.
In related news, the chairwoman of the Viennese branch of the WKO (WKW) said that almost 2,000 new jobs were created by foreign investors in Vienna last year. WKW boss Brigitte Jank announced that 126 firms with headquarters abroad had started operations in the city in 2011. She said they invested large sums and hired 1,900 men and women. Around 70 per cent of foreign investments in Austria's nine provinces go to Vienna, WKO figures show.
Vienna has always been the most powerful economic region of the country. New statistics show that its economic strength is in decline. Research by the European Commission's (EC) statistics and research organisation Eurostat reveals that the Austrian capital, which has 1.7 million residents, is no longer one of the continent's 10 richest regions.
Vienna takes 11th place in Eurostat's new investigation which considered industrialised areas and countryside regions in all of the European Union's (EU) 27 member countries. The organisation said Vienna's economic power was 161 per cent if 100 per cent was taken as the EU average. Vienna reached 10th place in the previous edition of the ranking. Its latest edition lists the City of London (United Kingdom) in first place with 332 per cent. Luxembourg (266 per cent) and Brussels (Belgium; 223 per cent) follow in second and third place.

HARRISONBURG -- Tonight's Powerball jackpot is the third largest in the game's history.
"Well first of all, I'd help my children and grandchildren go to college and just you know, help a lot of charities," said Kay Polusen, concerning what she would do with her winning Powerball ticket.
Besides all that, Pulsen says she'd also like to travel.
The increase in the cost of a Powerball ticket from $1 to $2 is the reason behind the increase in the jackpot.
People who bought Powerball tickets today, purchased several. They're hoping to increase their chances of winning.
Powerball isn't the only lottery game that has increased its winnings, so has the Mega Millions, whose jackpot is now a $190 million.
The next drawing for the Mega Millions is Friday.
"Not really, but you know somebody is going to win," said Pulsen, when asked if she thinks she is going to win.
According to experts, the chances of her winning is one in 178,000,000.
The next Powerball Jackpot drawing happens Wednesday at 11:00 p.m.

Next summer, soldiers will replace their desert tan combat boots with a darker, coyote-brown version. The photo above shows how the service's new coyote-brown combat boots will look when worn with the new Operational Camouflage Pattern.
"To correspond with the introduction of the Operational Camouflage Pattern starting in the summer of 2015, the Army will change the color for the Army Combat Boot to a coyote brown color," according to Thursday's U.S. Army news release.
Army senior leaders selected the new OCP to replace the service's ineffective Universal Camouflage Pattern after an exhaustive, four-year camouflage-improvement effort the service completed a year ago.
OCP is also known as Scorpion W2, a revised version of the original Scorpion pattern that Crye Precision LLC developed for the Army's Future Force Warrior in 2002. Crye later made small adjustments to the pattern for better performance and trademark purposes and called it MultiCam.
The Army chose MultiCam in 2010 as its Operation Enduring Freedom Camouflage Pattern for soldiers to wear in Afghanistan. OCP and MultiCam are very similar, but there are subtle differences between the two patterns.
Soldiers deployed to Afghanistan will continue to be fielded with uniforms and equipment in OEFCP, or MultiCam, until inventories are exhausted, the release states. In the coming months the Army will also conduct operational testing and user evaluations of existing service arid and woodland patterns for possible adoption by the Army.

Alcohol not a factor in fatal Raymond crash
RAYMOND — Police have determined that a young driver killed in a car accident Saturday was not under the influence of alcohol.
Alcohol was found in 18-year-old Leeann Bergeron's Ford Explorer, but police said they are confident Bergeron was not under the influence.
Police responded to the rollover crash on Route 27 near the Riverbend Condominiums around 1:16 a.m. Saturday.
The car crashed into a guardrail after crossing the center line, and three of the four occupants were ejected. The one person who remained inside the car was the only one wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash and suffered only minor injuries, police said.
Shannon Hamel, 19, of Raymond, was treated and released at Elliot Hospital in Manchester. Chanelle Fuller, 18, of Raymond, was transported to Exeter Hospital with serious injuries.
Bergeron succumbed to her injuries after she was taken to the hospital. Police said a third occupant, identified as Haydn Reese, 20, of Epping, fled the scene before police and fire crews arrived.

And don't miss the "Emerging Global Markets" Panel
As the global economy ebbs and flows, some countries or regions have begun to grow just outside our peripheral vision. Skateboarding as an activity and more so as a culture has permeated almost every developed country in the world.
Now, as some of the underdeveloped nations reach for a higher standard of living, their children look for activities outside the Bourgeois pursuits of their parents and these area's become new breeding grounds for skateboarding. This panel will explore the changing economic strata and cultural changes of three newly emerging markets. India, Central and South America and China.
The panelists will discuss their regions changing demographics and how these may become new frontiers for skating, the culture and our business's. Learn as well from the US Commerce Department what programs and assistance they can lend in growing US business outside of our shores.
And then back to the grassroots of skateboarding...
"Amateur Skateboarding Overview"
An update on the what's new for amateur skateboarding from contests to videos- the changing demographics of the "Am."
Each generation of young people has something that defines them - from Baby Boomers to Generation X and now the Echo Boomers/Millenium Generation (the generation formerly known as "Gen Y") each has establishing characteristics.
The changes from decade to decade affect the mindset of each new crop of skateboarders and our introduction to these up and comers. This panel will give an overview of the amateur scene and it's evolving dynamics.
Check out the web site for panelists and a full overview of each panel.

Talking "Breaking Bad" and more with "Walt, Jr"
If you've read any of my annual year-end "best of" picks over the years, you already know that I think AMC's "Breaking Bad" is the best show on TV. So, my hand was already tipped my hand when I sat down with RJ Mitte last night, the actor who plays Walt, Jr," at the Taste of Milwaukee event at the Hilton.
Mitte was in town as the United Cerebral Palsy Youth Ambassador. Like his character on "Breaking Bad," the 19-year-old actually has CP, though Mitte's is a milder form of the disability.
You can hear my entire interview with Mitte on this podcast, but here is an excerpt of our conversation:
OnMilwaukee.com: Do you love working on "Breaking Bad" as much as people enjoy watching it?
RJ Mitte: "Breaking Bad" is an amazing job. I couldn't ask for a better role and a better TV show. We have an amazing cast, crew and director. It's really astonishing to see this whole set come together.
OMC: It seems to even have gotten better.
RJM: It has and it hasn't. The more we go through the story, the darker it goes. You cannot beat what Brian (Cranston) does.
OMC: We were all under the impression that last season was the last season. Did you know while you were doing it if there would be another season?
RJM: We did not know, but I figured we'd have at least one more season left because I knew AMC couldn't let that go.
OMC: Do you, as an actor, know where the show is going to go?
RJM: I have no idea. The only people that do know the information are the ones who are building the set. I just bribe them.
OMC: Your version of Cerebral Palsy is pretty mild compared to Walt Jr's, right?
RJM: It is. The only thing I really have in my real-life CP is my left hand my speech.
OMC: Is it challenging to ratchet that up as an actor?
RJM: No, because when I was a kid, my CP was actually a lot worse. I had leg immobilizers, I had braces, I was in wheelchairs here and there, crutches. "Breaking Bad" was an eye opener for me because I am doing everything I've already overcome.
OMC: What's it like to be able to come to Milwaukee and be the Celebrity Youth Ambassador for UCP?
FJM: I enjoy it. UCP is an amazing organization that helps a spectrum of disabilities. What's awesome is that they actually get people jobs. They show that just because someone is disabled it doesn't mean that they are disabled. When people say, "No, you can't," they say, "Yes, you can."

Playboy likes Blue's Egg
Published Nov. 18, 2014
Take it for what its worth, but Playboy Magazine has Blue's Egg as one of its 101 best breakfasts in America (don't worry, the link is reasonably safe for work). The restaurant at 317 N. 76th St. came in 21st place out of 23 Midwest selections, just behind Mickie's Dairy Bar in Madison.
This cold snap has nothing on 1913
Published Nov. 11, 2014
Can you imagine how social media would've melted down exactly 101 years ago? Nov. 11, 2013 was the end of the "Big Blow," the "Freshwater Fury" or the "White Hurricane," a hurricane-force blizzard that killed more than 250 people and and destroyed 19 ships.
After 25 days, how we found our missing cat
Published Oct. 28, 2014
I really didn't have any hope left after 25 days. As we entered the fourth week without our sweet, kind, missing cat, Jabie, I was beginning to come to peace with the reality that I'd never see her again. Then, yesterday, less than four blocks from home, a woman called my wife and said she had cajoled a black cat into her basement. My wife bolted home from work and immediately recognized Jabie coming up the stairs. Just to be sure, she took her to the closest vet to scan her microchip. And it came back as a match from Elmbrook Humane Society.
Apple Pay: not ready for prime time
Published Oct. 22, 2014
Apple's new killer app, Apple Pay, may indeed someday change global commerce for good. That day isn't here yet, however. Three days after launch, my experiences with the NFC-based payment / tap to pay system show that Apple Pay is still very, very beta. At this point, you may find yourself using it barely at all.
Muna expands into Cathedral Square nightlife scene
Published Oct. 21, 2014
Mazen Muna, the owner of the Dogg Haus group of restaurants, shared his plans today to launch PhantomBar this spring at 780 N. Jefferson St. in Cathedral Square. The bar is under the umbrella of his new 12AM Management Group, which Muna says he founded to house "the new wave of businesses being added to the portfolio."

Fall into family fun in Door County
Published Oct. 8, 2014
Once upon a time, I figured that the magnificent, serene and beautiful Door County is a place only to be enjoyed by adults. Maybe my priorities have changed, though, because even after 20 years of visits, only recently did I come to the conclusion that kids could fall in love with this magical retreat, too. Turns out I was right. After the summer rush died down, we took our daughter up to Door County for the first time this weekend. It was a wonderful journey.
Social media and our missing cat
Published Oct. 7, 2014
Just about a week ago, our sweet little cat, Jabie, disappeared from our Bay View home. Maybe one of us left the patio door open a bit, I'm not sure. But after hours upon hours of walking the neighborhood, taping up posters and talking to every stranger we see, she's still nowhere to be found.
Dandy Warhols, fans share secrets of good music, great city
Published Sept. 27, 2014
I've been lucky enough to see the Dandy Warhols live several times over the last few years. But each time, I've had to travel to Chicago or Madison to hear them, which is a small sacrifice for one of my favorite bands over the last 15-plus years. So the opportunity to see the Dandys at Turner Hall was a welcome one, and as usual, provided for a great venue to see the Portland-based band Saturday night.
Picking, grinning
Published Sept. 23, 2014
Sunday morning, we headed to Mequon to pick apples, although not to Barthel's. On a friend's tip, we visit R-Apples (Roesch Farm), right next door at 12422 Farmdale Rd. What a wonderful, low-key experience. Not only was it peaceful and quiet, we picked apples and pears of many different varieties. Then we headed to their vegetable garden, and picked peppers and raspberries.

Kids rate their summer reads. What's your opinion?
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children
Author: Ransom Riggs
This book deserves 4 ½ stars because although it is not a children's book, it is an adventurous tale. Follow Jacob on a journey so big it'll knock your socks off! Skyler, Age 11
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Author: Stephen Chbosky
This book was very relatable. It gave good advice about coming of age and troubled people. The author offered many insights to life and what to expect. Also, he described how everyone thinks differently. Philicia, Age 12
That Summer
Author: Sarah Dessen
This book is interesting and filled with a lot of excitement. The book is well organized and contains a lot of detail. I can picture the setting, plot and characters in my head. The author makes the characters really exciting. For example, I noticed that each character has a secret. These are the elements in the book I like and admire. Cynthia, Age 13
Author: Laurie Halse Anderson
"Speak" depicts what it is like to be a very shy teen first going into high school, which I feel I can easily relate to. The ending, to me, was the best part. It really showed the importance of your voice and speaking out when something is wrong. Alicia, Age 16
Looking for Alaska
Author: John Green
John Green did an amazing job developing the personalities of the characters in this book. When you read it, you feel like you personally know all of the characters. He really tells you what it can be like to try and fit into a new place as a teenager. When Miles, or "Pudge" as his freinds call him, first gets to his sleepaway camp, he feels uncomfortable as he tries to fit in. It was very relatable to other teens that begin new and exciting experiences. Julia, Age 12
Super Schnoz
Author: Gary Ureg
I think the book deserves 4 stars because book that helps you understand that even if you're different, you are special in your own way. Maybe even a superhero type of way. John, Age 12
Touched by Fire
Author: Irene Watts
The author described the Markov family as a strong and caring pack. Every turn and twist they encountered they solved together. Miriam, the older sister, helped the family by sewing and cooking. Yuri, the younger brother, with his grandfather. I really enjoyed how everyone worked very hard to get tickets to America. They wanted to live in a good place. Lillian, Age 11

Raymond McEnhill Stadium
|The Ray Mac
|Old Sarum, Salisbury SP4 6PU
|Salisbury City F.C.
|4,000 (official); 5,000 (total)
The Raymond McEnhill Stadium is a purpose built 5,000 capacity football stadium in Salisbury, Wiltshire. It is the home of Salisbury City.
In 1997 Salisbury City moved to the stadium which was purpose built at Old Sarum, and was named after the then chairman, Raymond McEnhill. The stadium capacity is officially, 4,000, although it is technically able to hold 5,000, with covered accommodation for 2,247 fans. The stadium has achieved the ground 'B' grade standard.[1]
A then record crowd of 2,570 saw the FA Cup first round 2–0 defeat by Hull City in 1998.[2] This figure was beaten twice in the 2006-07 FA Cup. On 11 November 2006 a crowd of 2,684 saw Salisbury beat Fleetwood Town 3–0 in the First round proper. Then in the Second round proper a crowd of 3,100 saw Salisbury draw 1–1 with Football League One club, Nottingham Forest.[3]
The record league attendance at the stadium was set on 28 December 2009 when a crowd of 2,677 saw Salisbury draw 1–1 with Oxford United in a Conference Premier match.
On 12 May 2013 a new record attendance at the stadium was set when 3,408 spectators turned up to watch Salisbury beat Dover Athletic 3–2 in the Conference South play-off final. This win earned them promotion back to the Conference Premier, after two seasons in the Conference South.

Bollywood star Salman Khan will not face trial in the 1998 blackbuck hunting case in Rajasthan on charges of rioting but under the Wildlife Protection Act, the Supreme Court ruled Thursday.
A bench of Justice P. Sathasivam, Justice J.S. Khehar and Justice Vikramajit Sen declined to accept the Rajasthan government's plea that Salman and four other actors should also be tried for rioting under the provisions of the Indian Penal Code.
The blackbuck shooting case dates back to 1998 during the shooting of the film "Hum Saath-Saath Hain".
The state government had come to the apex court challenging the July 24, 2012, Rajasthan High Court order, upholding the May 4, 2006 revision court's decision setting aside the framing of charges by the trial court against Salman and the others under Section 147 (punishment for rioting), 148 (rioting, armed with deadly weapon) and 149 (member of unlawful assembly guilty of offence committed in prosecution of common object) of the Indian Penal Code.
Appearing for the Rajasthan government, state Additional Advocate General Manish Singhvi told the court that both the revisional court as well as the high court had erred in discharging Salman Khan and four others under Section 148 of the IPC on the grounds that another proceedings for the same incident and the same offence was pending.
Singhvi argued that the offence under Section 27 of the Arms Act is distinct and different from Section 148 of the IPC especially when the use of arms is with a view to commit violence in concert with other persons by forming an unlawful assembly.
A complaint was filed against Salman, Saif Ali Khan, Neelam, Tabu and Sonali Bendre on charges of being involved in hunting of protected blackbucks in Kankani village near Jodhpur in October 1998.
