- ―Catelyn Stark
Lord Hoster Tully is a character in Game of Thrones. The role was cut from the second season and for the third season the character is stated to have passed away. Prior to his death, Hoster Tully was the Lord of Riverrun, the Lord Paramount of the Riverlands and the head of House Tully, one of the Great Houses of Westeros. He was the father of Edmure, Catelyn and Lysa and the brother of Brynden. He ruled over the Riverlands from the castle of Riverrun.
BackgroundHoster was the head of House Tully and the Lord Paramount of the Riverlands. The Riverlands are one of the constituent regions of the Seven Kingdoms and House Tully is one of the Great Houses of the realm. House Tully rules the region from their seat at Riverrun and Hoster also holds the title Lord of Riverrun.[1]
Hoster married Lady Minisa of House Whent. They have three children, two daughters Catelyn and Lysa and a son, Edmure. Only three of the six children she bore survived. She died shortly after bearing the last which died with her. Hoster brokered a marriage alliance with the Lords Paramount of the North House Stark, betrothing his eldest daughter Catelyn to their heir Brandon Stark.[1]
The Mad King Aerys II Targaryen had Brandon executed triggering a rebellion against him. Hoster joined House Stark, House Baratheon and House Arryn in opposing the Mad King. Catelyn married Brandon's brother Eddard Stark and Hoster arranged for Lysa to marry Lord Jon Arryn to solidify the alliance. They won the war and installed Robert Baratheon as the King on the Iron Throne. In recent years Hoster had become old and frail, losing a great deal of weight as he had been quite portly, and his son Edmure has ruled in his place.[1]
During the War of the Five Kings, Lord Hoster passed away, passing his titles to Edmure, the new head of House Tully. Brynden Tully tells Catelyn that Hoster and Brynden managed to make peace before his death. Hoster told Bryden to stop calling himself "The Blackfish" as it is an old joke and it wasn't very funny to begin with.[2]

In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, Hoster is an old, spent man close to the end of his life. In his prime he was a canny politician and effective military commander, and was a vital supporter of Robert Baratheon's uprising against the Targaryen dynasty. He was married to Lady Minisa Whent, of the great castle of Harrenhal, who passed away some years before the events of the series begin.
In Game of Thrones, Catelyn visits her father after Robb Stark breaks the siege in the Battle of the Camps. At that point, Hoster is still lucid. In the next books, his health deteriorates rapidly. Most of the time he loses contact with reality, does not recognize his children, and mumbles incoherently.

Bearings include rubber seals that look and fit just like OEM. A great product at an affordable price!

Naruto accidentally flatulates on the bikōchū, causing it to follow his scent instead of Sasuke's. Although the mission fails to find a way of locating Sasuke, Hinata appears more confident, and her father seems to respect her more.

Intravascular ultrasound is a test that uses sound waves to see inside blood vessels. It is useful for evaluating the coronary arteries that supply the heart.
IVUS; Ultrasound - coronary artery; Endovascular ultrasound; Intravascular echocardiography
A tiny ultrasound wand is attached to the top of a thin tube called a catheter. This ultrasound catheter is inserted into an artery in your groin area and moved up to the heart. It is different from conventional Duplex ultrasound, which is done from the outside of your body by placing the transducer on the skin.
A computer measures how the sound waves reflect off blood vessels, and changes the sound waves into pictures. IVUS gives the health care provider a look at your coronary arteries from the inside-out.
IVUS is almost always done at the end of angioplasty with stent placement, or coronary catheterization. Angioplasty gives a general look at the coronary arteries, but it cannot show the walls of the arteries. IVUS images show the artery walls and can reveal cholesterol and fat deposits (plaques). Buildup of these deposits can increase your risk of a heart attack.
IVUS has helped doctors understand how stents become clogged (stent restenosis).
IVUS is commonly done to make sure a stent is correctly placed during angioplasty. It may also be done to determine where a stent should be placed.
IVUS may also be used to:
There is a slight risk of complications with angioplasty and cardiac catheterization. However, the tests are very safe when done by an experienced team. IVUS adds little additional risk.
In general, risks may include:
After the test, the catheter is completely removed. A bandage is placed on the area. You will be asked to lie flat on your back with pressure on your groin area for a few hours after the test to prevent bleeding.
If IVUS was done during cardiac catheterization, you will stay in the hospital for about 3 to 6 hours. If IVUS was done during angioplasty, you will stay in the hospital for 12 to 24 hours. The IVUS does not add to the time you must stay in the hospital.

This artwork is so amazing and definitely one of a kind, which is true about the artist himself. We have never seen a photo more intriguing, which is why we chose it! We are so pleased with its uniqueness, it is vibrant in color, matches the color scheme in our bedroom perfectly and is definitely a conversational piece. We found a really nice frame for this photo, but it was difficult getting the photo to fit. Most stores only carry common sizes on the display floor. Recommendation would be to have the photo custom framed, which can be quite expensive the larger it is. Otherwise, you may have to cut it down in size a bit. Aside from that, we couldn't have selected a better photo. We have been very satisfied with Art.com. They are timely with their deliveries, they provide exceptional customer service, are reasonably priced and there is no false advertisement. We have never been disappointed and will continue to be loyal customers. :-)

- Loyalist Marine's Chainsword (1-handed sword)
- Traitor Marine's Chainsword (1-handed sword)
- Ecclesiarchal Eviscerator (polearm)
- Repentia's Eviscerator (polearm)
The other three are original creations:
- Steampunk Chain-Glaive (polearm)
- Clockwork Chainsword (1-handed sword)
- Space-Age Electric Carving Knife (1-handed sword)
All are unique items, and have a requirement of level 30.

For those interested, some technical details concerning the weapons can be found below:
- All of the weapons utilize basic texture animation (scrolling) to achieve the movement on the various cutting chains.
- The Space-Age Electric Carving Knife uses a glow map with texture scrolling to achieve the "flashing red lights" effect.
- The Clockwork Chainsword uses a texture rotation for the circular saw blade at the top end of the sword. The "face" of the blade (guide bar) uses a series of texture frames played in quick succession for the animation of the various elements shown on it (gears, clock hands, large screw, etc.)
- The Steampunk Chain-Glaive uses particle effects in two different ways -- one for the steam/smoke coming out of the pipe-vent at the base of the handle, and the other for the two spinning gears on the blade.

Red-Headed Woman in the Garden of M. Foret, Summer 1887
Henri de Toulouse-LautrecFrench, 1864-1901
Oil on cardboard

On view
Toulouse-Lautrec took advantage of the verdant Montmartre garden of Monsieur Foret to paint at least four works. Two of them feature the same pensive woman with striking red hair, probably Carmen Gaudin, a favorite model of the artist's at that time. Toulouse-Lautrec has boldly used lavenders and greens to heighten the vivid impact of the woman's hair. The sumptuous color and exuberant brushwork create a delicate network, unified by the tan cardboard support that reveals itself across the surface. The effect of filtered and reflected sunlight is achieved by repeating the lavenders and greens in the model's dress and skin, and the angular fronds of spiky shrubbery echo the angles of her profile. The medium is oil, but the artist's use of clear, thin brushstrokes creates the effect of a quickly sketched pastel.

So as not to create cognitive dissonance, or shatter the mass delusion, the dirty little secrets of so-called clean energy are discounted or ignored, as if wind turbines and solar panels appear on Earth by the grace of Gaia, springing from magic beans planted in organic urban gardens. It's not true, of course,

Binz There, Done That
President Obama's recent nomination of Colorado's most ardent green guru to chair the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission probably didn't tell us anything we didn't already know about this administration's infatuation with "green energy" panaceas, as it doubles-down on pie-in-the-sky while attacking the tried-and-true. After all, former Colorado Public Utilities Commission Chair Ron Binz is nothing if not a fan of windmills and

Senate May Yet Have Its Say on O's War on Coal
So much for the denials. An administration that throughout its 2012 re-election campaign denied it was waging a War on Coal has now come out and publicly declared its intention to shut down coal-fired power plants — putting hundreds of thousands of Americans out of work and sending electricity prices skyrocketing. Obama claims he can do it all with no

Damning Praise from Gang Green
A legislative guide that purports to enlighten Colorado voters about the environmental record of their state lawmakers has just been released for the 15th year in a row, and enlighten it does—though not in the way its authors intended. The 2013 Colorado Legislative Conservation Scorecard, compiled by the environmental group Conservation Colorado, ranks the members of the General Assembly on

Biased Polls and Accomplice Pundits
We all know the secret to agenda-driven polling: ask a loaded question and you'll get a similarly-slanted answer. Journalists know the trick, too, but they sometimes seem happy to go along with the dishonest charade, and suspend their legendary stance of dogged skepticism, if they share the agendas of those conducting such polls. Someday, perhaps, we'll be treated to the results of a

Redrum is the thirteenth episode of season seven of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.
In order to snare a major drug dealer who has gone into hiding after killing a politician, Catherine, Keppler, Brass and McKeen initiate a reverse forensics operation to stage a crime scene and lure him out. Unfortunately, this proves difficult when the other CSIs start seeing through the bluff.
A Nevada politician, Danilo Zamesca (from the "A Bullet Runs Through It" two-parter), is shot and killed in his parked car in the outskirts of Vegas.
On the scene, the CSIs find a torn photograph of him apparently using drugs, which would have been damning for his career since he had made it his mission to fight drug dealing, and a dropped soda cup on the ground.
The crime lab processes the evidence and find a fingerprint on the cup's straw and shell casings from the 9mm used which turn out to belong to Simon Thomas, the biggest drug trafficker on the west coast.
When LVPD try to pick him up at a club he owns, he turns out to have been gone for weeks.
At a breakfast, Catherine, Brass, Keppler and McKeen discuss the case and Keppler suggests something radical to lure Thomas out into the open: reverse forensics, i.e. faking a crime scene.
Catherine and Brass are sceptical about the idea since it will involve deceiving their colleagues, but McKeen immediately becomes interested and the plan goes into motion.
While the rest of the team are on other assignments, Catherine, Brass and Keppler arrange the fake crime scene, planning to recreate the Zamesca scene and make it look like the same killer was responsible for another murder.
Sara investigates the death of a woman named Monique Carter, an ex-lawyer who appears to have died of a drug overdose, however, the autopsy reveals that she was killed by blunt force trauma to the head and her arm was shot up with drugs post-mortem to make it look like an overdose.
In the meantime, Catherine and Keppler make a plan to create a crime scene Brass hires a small-time drug dealer, Edwin "Rat" Dennison, to serve as their patsy in exchange for getting a new life elsewhere. The group has a narcotics cop, Ezekiel Holstein, serve as the fake victim.
In addition to recreating the tire tracks and shoe prints from the Zamesca crime scene, they recreate the bloody car by spraying the inside with Holstein's blood, taking crime scene photos of him covered with his own blood and then throwing a spent 9mm slug covered with it inside after breaking the window.
Meanwhile, Sofia Curtis continues investigating the Monique Carter case. While questioning her landlord, she learns that Monique was living with someone, but he doesn't know his name.
In the meantime, the case starts to deteriorate when Nick discovers a connection between Monique Carter and Zamesca.
The tattoo on her arm is the same as that of a woman in the torn photo and a piece of seat material is the same as that of a fragment found in the sand at Zamesca's crime scene.
Nick becomes suspicious of Catherine when she ignores the evidence in order to stick to her fake crime scene, even more so when he watches a press conference in which McKeen announces that Dennison has confessed to killing Holstein as well as Zamesca.
The fake case crumbles even more when Warrick examines the slug that supposedly went through Holstein's skull and is surprised to find that it is covered in blood, but doesn't have any bone or glass stuck to it as it would have if it went through the window and a human skull.
When Nick looks deeper into the case and, unable to find the Holstein case file or evidence, is warned off by Catherine, he gathers the other CSIs and they decide to dig deeper on their own.
Out of fear that Catherine, Keppler and McKeen have somehow become corrupt, they investigate behind their backs. When Nick looks at the bloody car, he discovers that there is no brain matter on skull fragments anywhere inside.
An examination of the blood sampled from the scene reveals that it had had anti-coagulants added to it to keep it from clotting. Finally, Warrick discovers that the car's window was smashed with a sparkplug and not a bullet.
Meanwhile with Thomas Simon out in public again, Brass arrests him for Zamesca's murder and finds a 9mm handgun on him.
Unfortunately, that becomes the moment that the case collapses as McKeen failed to properly in form the district attorney and, unable to separate the fake case from the real one, she decides not to file charges.
With the fake case gone, Catherine and Keppler tell the truth to the rest of the team, who are less than pleased to find out.
The team then pursues the Monique Carter case full-time, hoping to tie Thomas to her. Her cell phone records show that it was used to call several associates of Simon after her death.
When Sara and Nick search her apartment, they find his fingerprints on her pull-out bed.
To seal the deal, they find Monique Carter's hair and blood on the gun's handle. In the end, Thomas Simon is charged with her murder.
On another bright note, a piece of legislation to fight drug dealing sponsored by Zamesca before his death is passed into law.
- Hodges comments to Nick that Keppler & Catherine's mysteriousness implies an Internal Affairs investigation so much so that the department has started a pool on who is being investigated. The top three in the pool are claimed to be (in order) Nick, Hodges & Grissom.
- When Nick is in Hodges' lab and prints a result, for the first time the laser printer outputs the result with the upside down (like a normal printer will do). *In all previous times and episodes the laser printers of the lab always printed the pages with the face up something that no laser printer does. In the first seasons of CSI (mentioned before) the laser printers was also making a dot-matrix sound-like.
- In different moments, in all shots in the fake crime scene you can see the reflection of the shooting (filming) team in Brass' and Keppler's sunglasses. You can even see two big white objects that from the reflection seem to be in front of the actors all the time, even when they move. These are used to help redirect both natural and lamps to help light the scene.
- Supposedly, Keppler smashes the car window with a spark plug, but if you look closely, he actually appears to use some kind of metal pipe.
- When Keppler takes the SIM card out of the phone after calling 911 the card is backwards. The golden platine should be on the lower side, not the upper side. Also the card wouldn't fit in that way because one corner of the card is generally cut so people can insert the card only one way. Even if he could get the card in that way, the phone shouldn't work because the pins can't connect to the platine.
- Undersheriff McKeen: Alright, which one of you screwed this up?
- Brass: I'm looking at him. You dropped the ball, man. You never cleared this with the D.A and now she says she can't tell fact from fiction. She's not gonna file charges against Simon.
- Undersheriff McKeen: She's a tight ass. I told her what I thought she needed to know.
- Brass: Did you hear what I said? Now what're you gonna tell the Sheriff?
- Nick (to Catherine): I can't find the evidence in the Holstein case.
- Catherine: What do you want it for?
- Nick: Because that guy who confessed to killing Zameesca didn't do it. The sheriff's jumping the gun.
- Catherine: We have evidence and a confession, you can't just come in here and take over my case.
- Nick: Is there a reason that you don't want me to see that file, Catherine?
- Catherine: Nick, as your supervisor, I'm ordering you to back off.
- Catherine: I grew up in this town, I know all about playing the odds, you are gambling with my team.
- Keppler: We talked about the risks going in, it's not like we can quit now.
- Catherine: I'm not quitting, but I don't like it. And I hate lying to my guys.
- Sara: You know... I really hate deceiving people, because eventually you get what you give.
- Warrick: I hate being deceived.
- Keppler (to Catherine): If we do our job right and catch the guy, no one will remember the rest.
- Catherine (quieter): I'll remember.
- Sara: Uh, it's freezing why are we having a meeting outside?
- Nick: Because Catherine and Keppler are in there.
- Greg: Have you guys been listening to Hodges?
- Nick: No and this isn't about Keppler being IA anyway, this is about Catherine having a false confession and standing by it.
- Warrick: You'd better be able to back that one up, man.
- Nick: Zameesca knew Sara and Greg's vic. He's dead, she's dead. Same drugs are found at both crime scenes. And then those same drugs were found at your crime scene?
- Warrick: Could've came from the same supplier.
- Greg: We see that all the time.
- Nick: I don't think it's a coincidence.
- Sara: You know, Catherine... (looks around) Catherine ordered Henry to step out of his lab without putting drug evidence away.
- Greg: Why would she do that?
- Warrick: I did see Keppler checkin' out Zameesca's file the yesterday, I didn't think anything strange of it then, but now...
- Sara: Okay, so maybe there is a IA investigation.
- Nick: I can't find the Holstein evidence.
- Sara: What?
- Warrick: Catherine put it in the temporary locker.
- Nick: Yeah but why didn't she put it where it belongs?
- Warrick: The Holstein bullet is a little too clean and Keppler didn't seem at all concerned about it, he said we'd see it in autopsy.
- Nick: It's kinda hard to have an autopsy when you don't have a body, man. I talked to Doc Robbins and he's still tryin' to track it down. And the mortuary has no record of Catherine's call whatsoever.
- Sara: Do we have access to any of the Holstein evidence?
- Warrick: We got the car. (laughs and realizes) Catherine sent it to the impound.
- Greg: Well, at least we know where it is.
- Nick: Alright that's it, we're a team now, the four of us. We can't trust Catherine and we can't trust Keppler. I'm serious, I'm going to roll with this one.
- Warrick: I'll roll wit'chu. You? (looks at Sara)
- Sara (pauses): I'm in. (all look at Greg, he looks around nervously and then nods/shrugs)

Do not let the brand put you off, the Hyundai W241D is an extremely polished and technically accomplished unit. Its key feature is an up-to-the-second S-PVA panel. The scuttlebutt suggests it is the very same Samsung produced panel as found in a number of premium 24-inchers, including Samsung's own 245T model, naturally enough.

(401) 456-8101
BackgroundDr. Nancy Carriuolo (Carry-O-Low) was named the ninth president of Rhode Island College on May 12, 2008 by the Rhode Island Board of Governors for Higher Education. She began her service as president on July 1, 2008 as the second female president of RIC, the first woman being Dr. Carol Guardo.
During 2007-2008, Carriuolo served as interim vice president for academic affairs at Rhode Island College, overseeing the management of academic activities and programs for the college, while maintaining her duties as deputy commissioner and chief academic officer at the Rhode Island Office of Higher Education. Carriuolo was promoted to that position in 2006 after serving since 2000 as associate commissioner for academic and student affairs.
Carriuolo has wide-ranging experience in higher education. She served as the director of the Office of School/College Relations at the New England Association of Schools and Colleges and, immediately prior to joining the Office of Higher Education, served as dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of New Haven, where she became a tenured full professor of English in 1987. She also has experience as a junior- and senior-high school teacher and department chair.
Carriuolo is the author of more than 30 publications with regional, national or international audiences. Paul Simon, while a U.S. senator, read into the Congressional Record one of her essays originally published in The Chronicle of Higher Education. Carriuolo has published three essays in The Chronicle of Higher Education. A recent essay described the campus-wide budget review process that saved $3/4M in her first year as president.

Troy is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series, who appears as a supporting character in The Ballad of Gay Tony.
Troy is the door guard of the gay nightclub Hercules, although he himself is not gay. He often tries to talk to Tony and Luis about moving him to Maisonette 9, as he feels people are calling him gay. Tony normally responds by arrogantly ignoring Troy, while Luis tells him he can take or leave the position. Troy is also an aspiring singer, and tried to audition for Tony's cabaret and a celebrity guest at Hercules, supermodel Kerry McIntosh.
The same documentary team who were to make a film about the late Manny Escuela and his cleaning of Bohan's streets, planned on making a documentary on Troy, claiming his life as a doorman of one of Liberty City's hottest gay nightclubs included sex, drama, violence and many more popular aspects of reality TV.
Mission appearances
The Ballad of Gay Tony
- Just like Dessie, no matter how many times the player kills Troy, he will always reappear outside of the club.
- Troy is immune to any damage, except from the player. If you attack him, jump on top of a car, and call the police, they will shoot at Troy if they see him attack you, but to no avail. He will take all their shots and punch them to death. This is the same with Dessie.

A state championship is just what the Doc ordered
Jake Elliott's climb to a state championship was stamped Saturday night in front of a crowd of 6,447 at Rabobank Arena in Bakersfield, but it was defined in January at a talent-filled event in Clovis.
It was at the Doc Buchanan Invitational that Elliott defeated Jesse Baldazo of Brentwood-Liberty, Damien Arredondo of Clovis-Buchanan and defending state champion David Ferry of Oakdale, with a loss to Hayden Scharbrough of Glendora thrown in en route to a third-place finish in the 145-pound division.
And who stood across from the Oakmont High School junior in the final of the CIF State Championships on Saturday night but Baldazo, who Elliott beat a second time, this one a 4-2 decision for the gold. And who finished third in the state but Arredondo? And who finished fourth but Scharbrough, who Elliott took out 10-5 in the semifinals.
Elliott's list grows more impressive in that he defeated Brenton Visnoski of Huntington Beach-Edison 3-0 to advance to the quarterfinals and then won an 8-5 decision over Devin Poindexter of Clovis North to advance to the semis. Visnoski and Poindexter each earned medals at the state meet, Visnoski finishing sixth and Poindexter seventh.
"I showed up to wrestle, and I was focused," Elliott said Monday after returning to school. "I would like to thank my lord and savior Jesus Christ."
Wrestling season is long and grueling. It starts in October with practice every day, and Oakmont coach Dave Wells said wrestlers can hit several stressful bumps on the road to the postseason – getting "a little banged up" or having to cut weight.
"It's hard to do, but he stayed focused and actually picked up his intensity throughout the season," Wells said of Elliott, who had a season record of 39-1. "He wanted to win state, which was a high goal for a junior. He didn't practice like he wanted it to end."
Nor did Elliott have to stress out over his weight. He hydration tested at 135 pounds before the Doc Buchanan, but Wells suggested Elliott wrestle at his natural weight. They were on to something.
"I beat all those guys at my weight," Elliott said, giving credit to his coaches. "I look back now, and because I didn't cut weight, my body wasn't wearing down. I was able to lift and eat but at the same time keeping my weight in the perfect range. There was no extra stress in my mind. I was completely rejuvenated and prepared."
Elliott won Sierra Foothill League and Sac-Joaquin Section Division II championships in 2010, but a rough draw at the Masters Meet left him 2-2 and frustrated.
"I let some emotions show," Elliott said. "But at the end of the day, I realized it was a building block, and I needed to work harder. After I started training over the summer, I started seeing success on the mat, but honestly, I didn't know what my level was at this season until I hit Doc B."
Not even ranked in the top 30 in the preseason, Elliott went into the Doc Buchanan as the 10th seed with an admitted chip on his shoulder.
He lost to Scharbrough 6-1 in the second round but also took down several ranked wrestlers on his way to a third-place medal. In what he described as his first state-caliber match, Elliott learned from the loss.
"I made some stupid mistakes in that match," Elliott said. "I was ready for him in the semifinals (at state)."
Wells said it's hard to get inside the tall and lanky Scharbrough, who went into the State Championships having won the Southern Section title. Elliott trailed 3-1 going into the third period. Wells told Elliott to put on a show in the final two minutes.
"Do anything you can. Just go for it. Create a scramble. See what happens," Wells said to Elliott. "Jake flew into him and locked up a near cradle."
A takedown and two-point near-fall put Elliott up by two.
"Wrestling is 90 percent mental, 10 percent physical," Elliott said, adding that the victory over Scharbrough "was tough and so rewarding. I knew it was going to come down to the wire. When I beat him, that was one of the greatest feelings. I expunged that loss, and I'm a finalist."
Elliott is a student who watches video of his matches on his way home from tournaments, hits the rewind button and checks his motion. Wells said Elliott warmed up well before his matches and slept well at night – after each close match and even a turbulent arrival down south. Both rear tires on the car blew about eight miles out of Bakersfield.
"I thought we were going to get hit by a semi or flip," Wells said.
They waited an hour and a half before a tow truck drove them into town.
When Elliott defeated Baldazo, Wells sat there with his video camera and soaked in the moment. And so did Elliott.
"It really hit me when I got my hand raised," he said. "You know, in the sixth and seventh grade, that was my dream – to be a state champ.
"I'm in the clouds. I'm still running on a high. The emotions of the crowd cheering and my coaches just made me feel amazing. This is something I've worked so hard for. Honestly, that was my goal. You want to set your goals high. I didn't know if it was going to happen this year or next year. I've been off the mat for about two days, and I want to get back on the mat right now."

YONKERS, N.Y. (AP) - Two people have been rescued after their single-engine plane crashed and sank into the icy Hudson River off Yonkers.
Authorities say the plane was carrying a man and a woman on a sightseeing trip, and crashed about 5:20 p.m. Sunday. The two were wearing life vests and were able to get out of the plane before it sank.
Authorities say they were plucked from the waters within 30 minutes of the crash and taken to Jacobi Medical Center, where they were listed in stable condition. They were not identified.
The Federal Aviation Administration described the plane as a Piper PA-32.
In 2009, Capt. Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger safely landed US Airways Flight 1549 on the Hudson River in New York after striking a flock of geese. All 155 people aboard survived.

Originally prepared by Deepa Sarkar of the Cornell Law School Securities Law Clinic.
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act)
In contrast to the Securities Act, the Exchange Act primarily regulates transactions of securities in the secondary market - that is, sales that take place after a security is initially offered by a company (the issuer). These transactions often take place between parties other than the issuer, such as trades that retail investors execute through brokerage firms. The Exchange Act operates somewhat differently from the Securities Act. To protect investors, Congress crafted a mandatory disclosure process that is designed to force companies to make public information that investors would find pertinent to making investment decision. In addition, the Exchange Act provides for direct regulation of the markets on which securities are sold (the securities (stock) exchanges) and the participants in those markets (industry associations, brokers, and issuers).
In a major step by Congress, Section 4 of the Exchange Act established the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), a federal agency responsible for regulating the securities markets. Congress initially granted the SEC power to enforce the Exchange Act, but the SEC's enforcement powers have grown to include the Securities Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and other legislation. One important function of the SEC is to ensure that companies meet the Exchange Act's disclosure requirements. Companies must file their periodic filings with the SEC, and the regulatory agency makes this information available to all investors through EDGAR, its online filing system. The SEC's power to compel the statutory disclosure requirements is backed by the SEC's power to bring enforcement actions against companies that disseminate fraudulent or incomplete information in violation of the federal securities laws. The agency also is responsible for registering and establishing rules for the conduct of market participants and for exchanges and self-regulatory organizations (SROs). Under the Exchange Act, the SEC can sanction, fine, and otherwise discipline market participants - both organizations and associated individuals - who violate federal securities laws. The SEC, in enforcing the various statutes, can also issue rules pursuant to specific provisions, to help effectuate those provisions.
The mandatory disclosure system operates at several stages, and the required disclosures and forms of disclosure vary depending on the situation and the registrant. In general, under Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act, companies with registered publicly held securities and of a certain size are Exchange Act "reporting companies," meaning that they must disclose continuously by filing annual reports (10Ks), quarterly reports (10Qs), and reports when certain events occur (8Ks), per SEC rules. These periodic reports include or incorporate by reference types of information that would help investors decide whether a company's security is a good investment. Information in these reports includes information about the company's officers and directors, the company's line of business, audited financial statements, the management discussion and analysis section (in which the company's management discusses the prior year's performance and plans for the next year), and audited financial statements. Aside from periodic reporting, the Exchange Act also mandates disclosure at certain crucial points so that investors can make an informed decision before exercising ownership rights in stock. Sections 14(a), 14(b), and 14(c) govern disclosure during proxy contests, when various parties might solicit an investor's vote on a corporate action or to vote for certain board members. The Exchange Act requires that disclosure materials be filed with the SEC. If a party makes a tender offer, by attempting to buy up 5% or more of the company's stock on the open market, the Williams Act governs (Sections 13(d), 13(e), 14(d) and 14(e)). A tender offeror must also file disclosure documents with the SEC that disclose its future plans relating to its holdings in the company, among other information; this allows investors to decide whether to sell or not.
Under the Exchange Act, various market participants are subject to direct SEC regulation. Securities exchanges, such as the New York Stock Exchange where individuals trade stocks and bonds, must register with the SEC under Section 5 and Section 6. Similarly, NASDAQ, an electronic market on which brokers can trade stock, must also register. Registration entails a disclosure, since the registered markets must file detailed disclosure documents with the SEC; such documents help the SEC monitor the markets for trading activity that might indicate that market participants are violating securities laws. To further this goal, all securities traded on the securities exchanges must be registered under Sections 12(a) and 12(b) of the Exchange Act, with the issuers of the securities disclosing comprehensive information about themselves and the stock in the registration process.
In addition to directly regulating the markets, the SEC oversees self-regulatory organizations, which in turn have independent oversight over the markets. Nearly all broker-dealers must register with the main SRO, FINRA, meaning that the SEC directly regulates another set of market participants: broker-dealer firms and the brokers who are employed by them. SROs must develop conduct rules and standards of good practice for their members, pursuant to SEC directives. This joint supervision of broker-dealers and their employees is extremely important to investors, because it ensures that broker-dealers and their employees are sufficiently qualified and meet minimal levels of training, and that firms keep accurate, truthful records. Broker-dealer firms and employees who violate the SRO standards of conduct are subject to disciplinary action by the SRO, pursuant to a SRO hearing.
The Exchange Act protects investors by making sure information is available, but also protects investors by prohibiting fraud and establishing severe penalties for those who defraud investors, as well as those who engage in some trading practices that take advantage of information most investors do not have. When federal securities laws are violated by market participants, the SEC can bring a civil enforcement action and can also bring criminal actions for some violations. The Exchange Act is also more generous than the Securities Act in providing investors with a right to bring a private suit against market participants who have defrauded them:
- Section 10b and Rule 10b-5: These are the principal statutory weapons against fraud. Section 10b is the antifraud provision of the Exchange Act, while Rule 10b-5 is the rule the SEC promulgated under that section. Rule 10b-5 prohibits the use of any "device, scheme, or artifice to defraud," and creates liability for any misstatement or omission of a material fact, or one that investors would think was important to their decision to buy or sell the stock. Courts held early on that investors can sue, and the scope of liability is broad - potentially, a wide range of participants, from brokers to issuers to company employees may be liable, provided that the fraud was "in connection with" a securities purchase or sale. The Exchange Act antifraud provision has been used against all kinds of behavior, from misleading statements in company filings and documents used to sell the securities, to insider trading (where corporate insiders use information unavailable to investors to trade profitably) to market manipulation cases in which companies bought and sold their own stock so as to affect the market price of the company's stock. The breadth of Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5, combined with the fact that individual investors have a cause of action, make 10b-5 suits very common. Plaintiffs can recover the excess of what they paid over the actual price of the security. The "actual price" is the average price of the security within a 90-day window of the disclosure of the fraud; this limitation on damages is the result of 21D(e), which was added as part of legislation to reform securities litigation.
- Section 10b and Rule 10b-5 may also provide a remedy for investors who have suffered from broker-dealer conduct that does not amount to fraud, but still harms clients who entrusted the broker-dealer with funds. Neither the Securities Act of 1933 nor the Exchange Act directly address behavior by brokers who breach their fiduciary duties, but courts have read in an implied promise of fair and honest dealing by brokers, by the fact of their transacting in securities for clients. Under the "shingle theory," a customer only needs to prove violations of professional duties of fair dealing, rather than intentional misstatements or intent to deceive. However, customers still must prove that they relied on a broker. The Supreme Court has also affirmed that 10b and 10b-5 contain a right of action for investors whose broker violates fiduciary duties to clients, even where individual transactions were legal. The Supreme Court's ruling in SEC v. Zandford, in which a broker was liable under 10b-5 for legitimate transactions made with funds stolen from the client's account, supports the applicability of 10b-5 in cases where brokers breach their fiduciary duties.
- Section 9: This provision addresses manipulation of the stock market by traders, the behavior that originally spurred the crash of 1929. However, modern market manipulation is accomplished through methods that are more subtle and harder to detect. Investors can sue under Section 9 for trading activities and patterns of trading conduct that cause investors to think that a stock is doing better or worse than it actually is, or is traded more frequently than it actually is, or that create the appearance of a stable price. Essentially, these activities create an artificial price that give the investor false information about the stock, and thus induces the investor to trade. Section 9(e) gives investors an explicit right of action to buyers or sellers who trade on a stock exchange, as long as the stock was registered on the exchange. However, the claim is somewhat difficult to prove, since investors must prove that the price was actually affected by the manipulation, and that the defendant acted willfully. Proving damages also involves proving the actual value, since successful claimants may recover the difference between the actual value and the price they paid.
- Section 18: This is a narrower cause of action than the antifraud provision in 10b. Investors who actually purchased or sold a security may sue for fraudulent statement in a company's periodic filings with the SEC. Though the private right of action is advantageous to investors because it creates potential liability for a wide range of defendants, including those who actually made the fraudulent statement, "control persons," and aiders and abettors, the downside is the heavy burden of proof for the investor. A claimant must prove that he did not know the statement was false, that he relied on the statement when deciding to buy or sell, and that the fraudulent statement actually affected the price of the security.
- Section 20: Similarly to Section 15 in the Securities Act of 1933, this provision provides for joint and several liability for "control persons," thus increasing the chance that an investor will be able to collect any damages that are awarded.
