Actor Knocked Out of "A View From the Bridge"; Plus a Brief History of Stage Mishaps
Ouch, that smarts.
Santino Fontana, a cast member of the new revival of "A View From the Bridge" who sustained a concussion onstage last week, is out of the Broadway show for good, the production announced Wednesday. The play co-stars Liev Schreiber and Scarlett Johansson.
Fontana played Rodolpho, the Italian immigrant who is part of a quasi-love triangle in the Arthur Miller drama, now in previews and set to open in late January. Rodolpho's relationship with the teen-aged orphan Catherine, played by Johansson, angers her uncle, Eddie, played by Schreiber, whose lust for his niece is at the crux of the tragedy.
"Knowing that I would not be fully recovered and able to return until after opening, I've chosen to withdraw with great respect to my fellow actors and to my own health," Fontana said in a statement released by the production. A spokesperson for the play called it a "minor concussion" but would not elaborate on the circumstances under which the injury occurred.
Fontana will be replaced in the role by his understudy, Morgan Spector, who began playing the role last Thursday. Fontana sustained the injury several days before that, over New Year's weekend.
More on some stage injuries that may have smarted worse than a cranky review, after the jump.

What else
— The world of retail the past 10 years has changed as drastically as never before.
The physical store, and especially the multi-brand store has to make an extra effort to stay in the context, and to go an extra mile to get the new clients.
Therefore we understand that it is vital for the store to create it's own visual and inspiring world and to have it's own channel of on-line communication with client, showing it's unique style and support the sale of it's products.
Instagram is not more a spontaneous personal social network, it's your 24/7 online window, your image and your best selling platform.
"The eye has to travel" — Diana Vreeland
Furthermore, with the great variety of shopping alternatives today that don't need a physical effort of coming to the store (online shops of all types, luxury re-sell platforms, online marketplaces of all types), the multi brand store has to become an exciting destination point, offering a unique experience and atmosphere, achieved by creative window dressing and interior visual merchandising.
Big corporations have also started as little shops, and understood the power of these two instruments quicker than the others.
In Scarlett BCN we respond to the challenges of the modern market and offer to our clients a service of professional window-dressing and visual merchandising and it's planning, as well as Instagram and social-network content planning.
With the brands which we believe in… because of the quality, originality, innovation; as well the commercial and professional potential, we offer them flexible formulas of collaboration that include options from renting the space util the commercial development of the brand and offering the possibility of access to the most valuable stores.
Flagship Store
La Costa del Algodón FLAGSHIP STORE is your destination point for an exclusive shopping experience of the brand, with a unique possibility to see and try on all the collection, during the whole year, anytime.

The Hippodrome Theatre, Oxford Street, Manchester
Later - The Gaumont Theatre
See also: The New Manchester Hippodrome, Ardwick Green
Above - An early Postcard showing the Hippodrome Theatre, Oxford Street, Manchester
The Hippodrome Theatre which was situated on Oxford Street in Manchester was built for Oswald Stoll in 1904 and designed as a variety Theatre by the now renowned Theatre Architect Frank Matcham.
Right - Two early Manchester Hippodrome Programme Covers, the Far Right one is for June 1905 with the Arthur Lloyd Trio on the Bill, along with the Max Franklin Troupe, Arthur Rigby and his Company, The Merrions, Zertho's Dogs, Herbert La Marinte, and the world famous magician Chung Ling Soo.
The Theatre opened on Boxing Day the 26th of December 1904 with a variety show and a water spectacle from the London Hippodrome called "Tally Ho!".
On the Bill for the opening night were the Marvelous Noisets, Manning's Entertainers, a Bioscope presentation, Max Gruber with a Horse and Elephant from the London Hippodrome, Winter & Banks, the McConnell Trio, Rafayette's Dogs, and Post Mason.
The Manchester Hippodrome Theatre had a surprisingly short life. It closed on the 2nd of March 1935 and was then demolished and rebuilt as the Gaumont Theatre.
Left - A Variety Programme for the Manchester Hippodrome.
The new Gaumont Theatre used parts of the structure of the former Hippodrome Theatre in its construction, and opened on the 21st of October 1935. This was also at the same time as the Ardwick Empire was refurbished and renamed the New Manchester Hippodrome. There is more information on the Gaumont Theatre here.

The exact date is I believe around 1915/1916 as I have a press release that refers to him writing it as World war one is taking place.'

Roundup: Tennis to host NCAA's first two rounds
Published: Tuesday, May 1, 2012 at 11:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 1, 2012 at 11:32 p.m.
The Florida men's and women's tennis teams were both chosen as one of 16 hosts of their respective NCAA First and Second Round Championship matches, the NCAA Committee announced from Indianapolis.
The event will run from May 11 to 13 at UF's Linder Stadium at Ring Tennis Complex.
The Gator women will host two first-round matches on May 11 and a second-round contest on May 12, while the men will play their first round matches on Saturday and the second round on May 13. The winning team from each of the regionals advances to Athens, Ga., for the NCAA Round of 16 and beyond.
The Gator women, ranked No. 2 in the country with a 21-1 overall record, received the No. 2 seed in the 64-team draw. Florida faces Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) champion South Carolina State (16-0) for the third consecutive year in its first-round contest on May 11 at 2 p.m. The other NCAA Women's First Round match played in Gainesville features 35th-ranked Florida State (13-10) versus 31st-ranked Washington State (18-5) on Friday at 11 a.m. The winning teams from those first-round matches meet in the second round on May 12 at 3 p.m.
The Gator men, ranked No. 11 with a 14-9 overall record, will host the first two rounds on May 12-13, holding the top seed in the Gainesville regional. Florida will play Navy (18-8) in the opening round with the winner of the match to face the winner of 23rd-ranked Harvard (22-2) and Virginia Tech (11-11).
TRACK & FIELD: The Florida men's 4x400-meter relay team, composed of Dedric Dukes, Hugh Graham, Jr., Leonardo Seymore and Tony McQuay, earned Southeastern Conference Co-Men's Runners of the Week honors for their exceptional performance this past weekend at the 103rd Annual Drake Relays, the league offices in Birmingham, Ala., announced Tuesday.
The Gator quartet clocked a season-best time of 3:02.41 to win the men's 4x400-meter relay event at Drake Relays, turning in the eighth-best time in school history, the best time in the SEC this season and the No. 2 time in the nation this year.
Florida was the only team in the finals to start out with two freshmen on the first two legs, and McQuay torched the track for a time of 44.03 on the anchor leg.
The Gators now own nine weekly honors in 2012, as the men's 4x100-meter relay team earned the same honor a week ago. Senior sprinter Jeff Demps and junior sprinter Lanie Whittaker were each honored for their performances at the 85th Annual Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays and 68th Annual Pepsi Florida Relays, respectively.
Former Gator All-American thrower Kemal Mesic earned SEC Men's Field Athlete of the Week honors twice during the indoor season, bookending a weekly honor for freshman jumper Taylor Burke, who was named SEC Co-Women's Freshman of the Week earlier in the indoor season.
WOMEN'S GOLF: Florida is part of the field for the NCAA East Women's Golf Regional tournament hosted by Penn State University at the par-72, 6,253-yard Penn State Blue Course in State College, Pa., from May 10-12.The Gators will attempt to advance to the NCAA Championships for the 23rd time in school history and the first back-to-back appearances since 2006.

Spoilers!! Read at own risk!!
So hello, this is my theory on what happend to Soap (meaning that he's not dead). I know some of these things can't happen in real life but it's a game, isn't it... IF Soap returns in a DLC mission, this could be his story (if the mission takes place after MW3). So here I go.....
Read Soap's page on this wiki first or play the game(s).
When Price is busy punching Yuri down the stairs and stuff, the medic arrives and takes a look at Soap, then Soap suddenly awakes, but with a low pulse. He just passed out. The medic gives Soap a blood transfusion to make up the blood loss, and the resistance is eager to help. The Russians pull back at that moment because Nikolai comes with some(read: many) friends in helicopters to help the resistance. Suddenly Price comes in without Yuri, who he left in the cellar. Price helps the medic to carry Soap to a safe place in the building and says that 'he'll be back for him'. Price calls Nikolai and Nikolai extracts Soap to a safehouse.
Afterwards Price tells everyone, including Yuri and MacMillan, that Soap is dead, so there is no danger Makarov knows the truth.
Once Price killed Makarov, Nikolai picked him up and flew together with Price to the safehouse where Soap is and they lived happely ever after....
Note: the medic is a doctor in the hospital of Prague who was rescued by the resistance.
That's my story. If Infinity Ward decides to bring him alive, this would be a good story I think (even though it's impossible). Well, that's it, leave your comments below! Mac$ out! Soapy MacPrice Talk

CROW'S THEATRE'S ETERNAL HYDRA AT Factory Theatre
continues to February 13, 2011
"These days, writing is a very small part of being an author."
Eternal Hydra is a play of ideas fleshed out by the foibles of its very human characters, crisscrossing through time, fact and fantasy to pose questions of morality and truth and a whole lot else. That it succeeds in this quite captivating production is due to brilliant writing and a strong cast that takes on a total of 11 roles between the four of them.
Just as a spare but striking set and cast of four flit back and forth, so does the story trip back and forth between the present, where scholar Vivian (Liisa Repo-Martell) brings a long lost manuscript she's unearthed to be published, and Paris of the 1930's, where its author(s) lived and drank prodigiously. It also slips between the "reality" of the present day publishing transactions and the various fictions represented on the page, from one author to another to another... Along the way it asks the questions about the nature of genius, and just how much writing an author is supposed to do these days. The tangled storyline mirrors the complexity of the issues. Aren't all artists simply rearranging what is already there? Dashes of smart humour pepper the scenes.
David Ferry does a nice turn as Gordius Carbuncle (aka...?) the Irish/Jewish writer with a glorious concept for the novel of the century. It will contain 100 chapters, each written from the voice of a completely different protagonist, and each representing the unheard voices of history. The search for unheard voices - along with a combination of self-hatred and an overweening desire for literary immortality - is what leads him to cross paths with young black American writer Selma Thomas. In the modern storyline, author Pauline Newberry, championing Selma's unrecognized oeuvre, locks horns with Vivian and her romanticized version of Gordius. Cara Ricketts, playing both Pauline and Selma along with a freed slave in post-Civil War New Orleans, is an able chameleon.
The production as a whole switches modes between past and present seamlessly and in a way that felt both noticeable and authentic. Liisa Repo-Martell has a real gift for accents, going from English to Scottish and then Louisiana. Her portrayal of Vivian Ezra really conveyed the passion and devotion of scholarship - even if those passions did go too far. Sam Malkin is publisher Randall Williams both Jr. and Sr., and boss/lover of the slave girl who is Selma's great grandmother, with a bit of a larger than life persona that suits the comedy. A multi-purpose set and striking lighting design by John Thompson do a lot to add depth to the performances, which include segments of narration and aside comments to the audience. It's a story within a story within a story, a classic mystery, but the whodunnit is actually a philosophical question.
Gordius grows on you. At first he's something of a caricature, presented in terms of the conceptions conjured up by Vivian and Pauline. He solidifies as a real person in segments of his diary. Eternal Hydra, the many-headed snake of Greek mythology, is a kind of metaphor for the very questions - and constantly mutating answers - that the play itself poses. What is morality when it comes to artistic creation? What is truly "original"? In this era of sampling and mashing up, it seems a particularly relevant question.
Last night's packed opening night audience included former GG Adrienne Clarkson and John Ralston Saul, author André Alexis and Philip Akin, whose own production of Ruined is currently on stage just east of downtown.

Great article.
The selling has to happen on both ends, as described, using both methods. Business line managers are looking for the increased workflow efficiency, while IT managers are more concerned with infrastructure and implementation.
This is especially true in our business, where before I can worry about the HOW, the higher ups are already asking the WHAT and the WHY, so that when it gets to the HOW, they are already convinced of the effectiveness of the solution.
great article, thanks for sharing.

I haven't seen any real-world shift to "cloud computing". It's a great buzz word.... useful in limited fashion.... but I can't imagine IT departments vanishing in place of thin clients connected to a "cloud". I have seen many IT departments moving to virtualization within their own orginizations.... but the complete lack of control of your own systems in the "cloud" would be enough to scare away most managers (I think). And any small business client I have running on a single DSL line in to their small insurance office (as an example) has no need for cloud based services and the change would only introduce new/different problems, and an expense to change everything over......
Maybe some day...... but public connectivity is still too unreliable for anything mission critical.... as I've said before.... a good strong wind (or like here, 5 feet of snow) and voila.... no more cloud...... then what?
As a small scale example... I have remote app configured on my terminal server and both me and my business partner (wife) access all of our Office applications from there. It's fantastic.... if I drop my notebook in the snow... who cares I can use any machine.. and there are my files and apps etc. In that respect I love it, yet I still have control over that server. Also... when creating a Word document (as another example) it works GREAT....... until I want to insert a graphic from the local client.. normally not an issue except that now that local file take 2 minutes to embedd in to a document because the document acutally doesn't exist on the client.... so there are still some quirks (that I can work around but SMB users would hate).

Niagara Technology Group (NTG) is an IT service provider.
I haven't seen any real-world shift to "cloud computing". It's a great buzz word.... useful in limited fashion.... but I can't imagine IT departments vanishing in place of thin clients connected to a "cloud".
The most that I see is using cloud-based resources to replace traditionally hosted or colocated systems. Not a very big shift.

Brand Representative for Egnyte
Here at Egnyte, we are starting to see a shift in cloud service adoption process. The old sales cycle would be going up the IT ladder and then ultimately the CTO would make the final decisions. But this traditional method definitely has drawbacks, due to the information disconnect between the IT managers and Execs.
What we are seeing more of now is IT managers have more decision making (and purchasing) power. So the adoption process not only starts with the IT department, but now also ends with them as well.
Oct 25, 2011 at 9:09 UTC
There are good reasons to go for a service hosted by someone else. Usually it's about the complexity in self-hosting being high enough that local downtime is more than internet access downtime.
But that begs the question, why not self-host and pay someone else to manage?

Ubiquitin thioesterase OTUB1, also known as Deubiquitinating enzyme OTUB1, OTU domain-containing ubiquitin aldehyde-binding protein 1, Otubain-1, Ubiquitin-specific-processing protease OTUB1, OTUB1 and OTB1, is a cytoplasm protein which belongs to the peptidase C65 family. OTUB1 is a hydrolase that can remove conjugated ubiquitin from proteins and plays an important regulatory role at the level of protein turnover by preventing degradation. OTUB1 is a regulator of T-cell anergy, a phenomenon that occurs when T-cells are rendered unresponsive to antigen rechallenge and no longer respond to their cognate antigen. OTUB1 acts via its interaction with RNF128 / GRAIL, a crucial inductor of CD4 T-cell anergy. Isoform 1 of OTUB1 destabilizes RNF128, leading to prevent anergy. In contrast, isoform 2 of OTUB1 stabilizes RNF128 and promotes anergy. OTUB1 regulates RNF128-mediated ubiquitination, but does not deubiquitinate polyubiquitinated RNF128. Deubiquitinates estrogen receptor alpha (ESR1). OTUB1 mediates deubiquitination of 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitin chains, but not 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains. OTUB1 is also capable of removing NEDD8 from NEDD8 conjugates, but with a much lower preference compared to 'Lys-48'-linked ubiquitin.

Above, A Date in Cornell Basketball History. Thirty years ago, on November 29, 1983, Cornell opened its 1983-1984 season against Syracuse. Pictured are the game program and A.P. recap. Cornell opens its 2013-2014 season against the same opponent. Below, news and notes for Thursday...
- Share your thoughts on the upcoming season on The Cornell Basketball Blog's Community Forum and Message Board. Membership is free.
- The Cornell Red-White Game will be played on October 19 at 11:30 am. That same day, most of the other major men's sports are off campus as the football team is on the road at Monmouth University while men's soccer is at Yale. Men's hockey is scheduled to face York in the evening.
- The Cornell Basketball Blog updated its latest Roster Report which includes some recent player transactions on Ivy rosters and an updated 2013 and 2014 recruiting commitment list.
- BT Powerhouse believes Purdue will be much improved and credits the addition of Errick Peck (Cornell '13) as one of the reasons behind the improvement.
- The Cornell Daily Sun reports on Cornell's newcomers:
The basketball team welcomed five freshmen to the squad this season, adding depth to a roster that carries only four seniors.
The Red lost six players to graduation last season, including starters Errick Peck '13, Eitan Chemerinski '13, Miles Asafo-Adjei '13 and Johnathan Gray '13. The four combined for 28.4 points per game last season, which comprised over 40 percent of the team's total scoring of 65.8 points per game.Of the five freshmen, four are guards who will likely be developed in order to help alleviate the blow of losing two starting guards in Asafo-Adjei and Gray.
"With the departure of Miles and Johnny, we are going to have to rely on some of the guard play from the freshmen," senior forward Dwight Tarwater said. "They are also under the impression that we are counting on them as well."
Freshman guard Robert Hatter — a second-team all-state selection in Texas — was ranked the No. 3 guard in the Houston area after averaging 21 points, six rebounds and six assists per game in his senior campaign. Freshman guard Desmond Fleming, also from Texas, earned first-team all-district and all-county honors with 12.0 points and 3.4 assists in his senior season. The final two guards — JoJo Fallas and Darryl Smith — were both all-division selections, and Smith was a member of a team that advanced to the state championship in Virginia his sophomore year.As one of the Red's main three-point threats last season, Gray's departure will free up space for other guards to step into that role. Though Asafo-Adjei only averaged 2.8 points per game, the squad relied on his speed and relentless defensive effort to pester opponents. According to Tarwater, because of this, the freshmen will have to learn the Ivy League brand of basketball fairly quickly in order to make an early impact for the Red.
"I think that the freshmen will grow accustomed to the game very quickly," he said. "With the short time that I have had with them, I can tell you that they are all very talented, and they have fantastic work ethics."
The fifth addition to the roster this year is freshman forward David Onuorah. The 6-9, 230 pound big man will be a much-needed force in the paint for a Red team that is often undersized in the Ivy League. Onuorah received honorable mention all-county honors and was an all-state selection by the Georgia Athletic Coaching Association as a senior.With the departure of post players Chemerinski and Josh Figini '13, sophomore forward Shonn Miller will have to carry much of the burden in the paint. Miller was the Red's leading scorer and rebounder last year, but will need support from the rest of the frontcourt. Onuorah should provide some relief for Miller, along with junior forwards Dave LaMore and Deion Giddens, who will likely see additional time on the court this season.Understanding they will be called upon to play important roles for the Red this year, Tarwater said that he is excited to see how the freshmen will perform and develop.
"I am really looking forward to being a part of these guys' times at Cornell, and I am looking forward to seeing them grow and succeed," he said.

Don't Care is a series of options that are present in EarthBound and Mother 3. They are suggested names for the characters, the main character's favorite food, and the main character's offensive PSI ability/their favorite thing. The first one is considered to be their official and canonical name.
In EarthBound, using the "Don't Care" option allows the player to cycle through seven names for the characters, with the first being the character's official name. For example, if the option is used for a boy with a red baseball cap, he will be named "Ness", for a girl with blond hair and ribbons, it is "Paula", for a boy who is the son of a professor it is "Jeff", for a prince who lives in Dalaam, it is "Poo", for a dog that belongs to Ness, it is "King", for Ness and his family's favorite food , it is "Steak", and for a powerful trademark PSI move learned at birth/favorite thing, it is "PSI Rockin".
In Mother 3, the "Don't Care" option again appears, but unlike EarthBound, there is only one name to choose from for the characters, instead of various names (although Lucas's favorite food and favorite thing have multiple choices). However, this is the first time that the main character's family can be named. The people and objects that can be named this way are Lucas, Claus, Flint, Hinawa, Boney, Lucas's family's favorite food, Lucas's favorite thing, Duster, Kumatora, and Salsa.
- In both EarthBound and Mother 3, the only times the naming screen does not have the "Don't Care" option are when the player is inputting their own name.
- One of Ness's Don't Care names was Alec, the same name as Lucas's Grandfather.
- In Mother 2, the Don't Care names were different and had distinct themes; The first set is the canon names, the second set is the character's main clothing item, the third set is related to the Japanese boy band SMAP, the fourth set is about the Beatles, the sixth set names are based on the Mario series, and the seventh are about commands to dogs (with the exception of the favorite food and favorite thing, which are "Dog Food" and "Champion", respectively).

Jamie McShane is an American actor and former author.
McShane was born and raised in northern New Jersey with four siblings. In his early years, he became an athlete who excelled particularly in ice hockey. He was inspired to become an actor at the age of five, after he saw the animated Disney film Robin Hood. McShane originally intended to play hockey in the Olympics, turn pro, and get hired as an actor, but this plan was canceled when McShane suffered a head injury in school, which ended his hockey career. Instead, he took up tennis, went on to play in a few professional tournaments, and eventually became a tennis instructor.
McShane graduated from the University of Richmond with a BA in English. Afterwards, he worked three jobs until he saved enough money to hitchhike around the world. His travels encompassed many parts of Europe, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. During the decade following his return, he traveled around New York City, New York, doing multiple stints on theater, extra work, stand-in work, and commercials. McShane eventually landed roles in indie films and small bits on soap-opera shows. During this time, McShane received a black belt in Tae Kwon Do, wrote a book of poetry and some children's stories, and worked full-time in his family's business, which specialized in selling and fixing microscopes.
Eventually, McShane moved to Los Angeles, California, to pursue a proper acting career. His early breaks included roles in the shows NYPD Blue, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, and the pilots of Philly and Deadwood. He won a Best Actor Award at the 2002 Palm Springs International Festival of Short Films, in relation to his lead role in the AFI-produced film Fine. Since 2001, McShane has made appearances in over 100 episodes of TV shows, and had roles in many films such as Gone Girl, Argo, The Avengers, Thor, Hostage, Gridiron Gang, and Pride and Glory. His recent recurring roles are on Ironside and Bosh, but he is extremely well known for his portrayals of the emotionally driven Irish gunrunner Cameron Hayes in Sons of Anarchy, and also the compassionate LAPD Squad Sergeant Terence Hill in Southland.
On Criminal MindsEdit
McShane portrayed Peter Chambers, the father of abduction victim Brooke Chambers, in the Season Two episode North Mammon.

Matt Meler
Matt's influences are firmly rooted in and skewed towards the underground. A lot of this can be attributed to the fact that our guy was exposed to everything within the musical spectrum by his music-loving parents. From Sade and Mozart to Louis Armstrong and The Rolling Stones, all a helping hand to Matt's knowledge of music and particular love for jazz, funk, soul, disco and, ultimately, house and its glorious variants.
A long-running passion for music and the art of DJing has seen Matt hold long-term residencies at some of Australia's most exclusive clubs, providing his talents as support for the likes of Joey Negro, Dimitri from Paris, DJ Meme, Fred Everything, Miguel Migs, Richard Earnshaw, Sonny Fodera, Henry Saiz, Oliver Dollar, Franky Rizardo, Ron Basejam, Bag Raiders & Flight Facilities plus frequenting both ADE & WMC global events - a testament to his ability as a DJ and love for dance culture. To make things better/worse (depends on who you ask - there's a theme here), 5 years ago saw a torrid love affair with production and studio software and hardware come to fruition; yet another obsession if you want to be dramatic. Have these vices proven somewhat fruitful?
Bet your ass they have. Fruitful in the form of a harem of top-notch releases over the last 18 months on a horde of well-respected international labels including Dikso (Berlin) and Mullet Records (UK), which have seen Matt's music gain support and recognition from the likes of Tensnake, Mark Knight, and Graeme Park. Matt has also had multiple features on the esteemed 'Hed Kandi' compilations and more recently on perhaps one of the most compelling dance labels around: Armada Music on their 'Deep House Selections' compilation.
Matt Meler's interests include drinking cheap red wine, eating cheese from a tub, being handsome, and making delicious music.

he was in jail last 8 yrs he was supposed to help me get this divorce over and done with however they deported him so now no contact i just want to get this over and done with how can i start this .
This isn't really an immigration matter. But I am also licensed in Nevada and can give legal advice on family law, too. You can serve him by publication and enter a default judgment against him if he cannot be served. It will take a few months to do and be more expensive than a joint petition or uncontested divorce where he would sign the papers, but it can be done.Ask a similar question
Get a family law attorney, They know that the requirements are for service him with papers.

Yep, family attorney is necessary. You can file for divorce where you live and have him served where he is. Could be a little tricky because it's international. If he doesn't respond or appear (which he can't do because of physical limitations), you'll probably be able to take a default order against him.
Again, talk to a family law attorney who has experience with international matters.

VANCOUVER (Reuters) - A Canadian man's own actions will prove he lied to a court about having no knowledge of the conspiracy that led to the deadly bombing of Air India Flight 182 in 1985, prosecutors said at the start of a perjury trial on Thursday.
Inderjit Singh Reyat is accused of lying more than a dozen times during the trial of two men who were eventually found not guilty of bombing the Air India jetliner over the Atlantic Ocean, a disaster that killed 329 people.
Prosecutors told the jury in Vancouver they do not plan to call witnesses against Reyat. They will instead have the jury listen to Reyat's testimony in court in 2003 and read statements he gave before appearing as a witness.
Reyat had pleaded guilty to helping construct the bomb, and was called as a prosecution witness in the murder trial of Ripudaman Singh Malik and Ajiab Singh Bagri.
On the witness stand, Reyat denied knowing why he was asked to build a bomb, what the target was, or ever asking the name of an unidentified man who spent a week in Reyat's home constructing the bomb.
The judge who found Malik and Bagri not guilty of murder and conspiracy in 2005 nonetheless called Reyat an "unmitigated liar".
The attack on Flight 182 is history's deadliest bombing of a commercial airliner, and is alleged by police to have been plotted by Sikh extremists living in Canada as revenge on India for its storming of Sikhism's Golden Temple in Amritsar in 1984.
The plotters also planned to destroy an Air India flight over the Pacific Ocean at the same time, but that bomb instead exploded in Japan's Narita airport, killing two baggage handlers.
The Canadian government formally apologized in June to families of the Air India victims, saying authorities failed in their duty to disrupt the plot and prevent the tragedy.
The perjury trial is expected to run through next week. The defense has not said if it plans to call any witnesses.
