Latest update August 23rd, 2017 12:55 AM
– claimed his attorney/client relationship with Roger Khan was invaded
(New York Law Journal) Robert Simels failed to persuade a federal appeals court to overturn his convictions for conspiracy, attempted obstruction of justice and bribery, thus ensuring that the criminal defense attorney will serve a 14-year prison term for conspiring to intimidate and corrupt witnesses against his drug smuggling client.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit yesterday upheld 10 of 12 felony convictions secured in 2009 by prosecutors in the Eastern District U.S. Attorney's Office who proved that Simels tried to prevent potential witnesses from testifying against his client, Guyanese drug smuggler Shaheed "Roger" Khan.
Single counts of importation of electronic surveillance equipment and possession of electronic surveillance equipment were vacated by Judges Jon O. Newman, Guido Calabresi and Peter W. Hall, who heard oral arguments in United States v. Simels on April 29.
Khan was arrested in Suriname in 2006 and brought to the United States for trial as the accused leader of a criminal enterprise importing large amounts of cocaine. He hired the brash Simels for a retainer of $1.4 million, but ultimately pleaded guilty in the drug conspiracy.
Prosecutors went after Simels using a cooperating witness and Drug Enforcement Administration informant, Selwyn Vaughn.
At trial, the government presented five recorded conversations between Vaughn and Simels in the attorney's office between May and September 2008. In the conversations, Simels could be heard proposing to bribe and threaten potential witnesses against Khan.
The government also produced incriminating conversations between Simels and Khan in the attorney visiting room at the Metropolitan Correctional Center.
Simels, who testified at his 10-day trial, was convicted on one count of conspiracy to obstruct justice, eight counts of attempted obstruction of justice, a single count of bribery and the two surveillance equipment counts before Eastern District Judge John Gleeson. He was acquitted of a single count of making a false statement at a prison.
An associate of Simels, Arienne Irving, was also convicted of six felonies, but those convictions were later thrown out by Judge Gleeson, who found Irving was not present for interactions between Simels and Vaughn.
Last year, the Eastern District U.S. Attorney's Office announced without explanation that it was withdrawing its appeal of Judge Gleeson's ruling.
On appeal, Simels argued the government invaded his attorney-client relationship with Khan, that evidence on five counts was insufficient, and that several of Judge Gleeson's rulings deprived him of a fair trial, including his decision allowing a suppressed recorded conversation between Simels and Khan that the judge allowed as impeachment evidence against Simels.
But he prevailed only on the electronic surveillance equipment counts which concerned a "base" that allegedly could be used to surreptitiously intercept radio signals between phones and cell towers as well as two laptop computers.
The laptops, Simels testified, were given to Mr. Khan by Guyanese government officials to store intercepted conversations, and one of them contained a conversation involving David Clarke, a potential witness against Khan.
Writing for the Second Circuit, Judge Newman said the evidence showed the equipment was inoperable.
With respect to electronic devices, Judge Newman said, "Congress covered only those 'which can be used' to intercept communications and added, as a mens rea requirement, that the device be known to have been designed for the purpose of surreptitious interception."
The ruling was of little help to Simels, however, because Judge Gleeson had sentenced him on the surveillance equipment counts to time served and no supervised release, making it unnecessary for the court to resentence him.
Simels, a 1974 graduate of New York Law School, began his career as a special assistant attorney general investigating public corruption. He eventually became one of New York's more prominent defense attorneys, representing such clients as Henry Hill, the gangster made famous by the film "Goodfellas"; drug-trafficker Kenneth "Supreme" McGriff; and former New York Jet Mark Gastineau.
Simels was represented at trial by Gerald Shargel, and on appeal by Barry Bohrer of Morvillo, Abramowitz, Grand, Iason, Anello & Bohrer, along with Elkan Abramowitz and James R. Stovall of that firm.
Handling the prosecution's case at trial were Eastern District Assistant U.S. Attorneys Steven D'Alessandro and Morris Fodeman, now in private practice, and Daniel Brownell. Brownell also handled the appeal.

3 Days to Open: Confections of a Rock$tarby Maria Russo in Shows, August 17th, 2012
Just days before opening, Bobby Flay and his pastry chef, Clarisa Martino, tackled failing ovens, amateur kitchen help and inferior ingredients at New Jersey bakery Confections of a Rock$tar to make sure that Kimmee launched her dream shop on time. So how is Confections doing now that Bobby and Clarisa have left and Kimmee has been running the bakery on her own?
Today, Confections enjoys sales of $400 per day in the middle of the week, $1200 per day on Fridays and Saturdays and $1000 per day on Sundays. The bakery is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays to allow time for individual cake consultations and bakery preparations.
Kimmee's taken advantage of the techniques Bobby and Clarisa taught her, and says that "Bobby taught me how to do things the right way. Everything he taught me I am utilizing daily." This includes baking cupcakes with quality ingredients daily and embracing the importance of organization and time management.

No. 95-8556.

NOTICE: Fourth Circuit Local Rule 36(c) states that citation of unpublished dispositions is disfavored except for establishing res judicata, estoppel, or the law of the case and requires service of copies of cited unpublished dispositions of the Fourth Circuit.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Aiken. Charles E. Simons, Jr., Senior District Judge. (CA-93-2806-1-6)
ARGUED: Lexious Algernon Rogerson, Jr., Lexington, South Carolina, for Appellant. Michael Stephen Pauley, LIDE, MONTGOMERY, POTTS & MEDLOCK, P.C., Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellees. ON BRIEF: Vinton D. Lide, LIDE, MONTGOMERY,
POTTS & MEDLOCK, P.C., Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellees.
Before MURNAGHAN and ERVIN, Circuit Judges, and PHILLIPS, Senior Circuit Judge.
A deputy sheriff, Donald Danner, entered a bingo hall to arrest Darlene Loadholt for a violation of law. Danner asked and received a promise of assistance in locating Loadholt, whom he believed to be at the hall, from Cecil Barnes, who was the operator of the bingo hall. Barnes spoke with Loadholt and after the conversation Loadholt left the bingo hall by the back door.
Suspecting that Barnes had advised Loadholt to escape, Danner swore out a warrant for Barnes' arrest.
The charges were nolle prossed in state court. The prosecutor asserted the lack of sufficient dependable witnesses, not a belief in Barnes' innocence, was the reason for the nolle prosse.
Barnes sued Danner in federal district court under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 for wrongful arrest and prosecution. He also appended a state claim for malicious prosecution.
The 1983 claim raised the question of qualified immunity and probable cause and was submitted to the jury. The jury found for Danner and the former sheriff who was also sued. Barnes contends that the trial judge's jury instructions regarding probable cause and qualified immunity were improper. Challenges to jury instructions are reviewed under the abuse of discretion standard. Nelson v. Green Ford, Inc., 788 F.2d 205, 208 (4th Cir.1986). When considering an objection to jury instructions, the court must determine if the jury instructions, taken as a whole, fairly state controlling law. Barber v. Whirlpool Corp., 34 F.3d 1268, 1279 (4th Cir.1994).
Barnes contends that the trial court erred in its instruction regarding qualified immunity. He argues, relying on Sevigny v. Dicksey, 846 F.2d 953, 956 (4th Cir.1988), that the court should have instructed the jury that an officer is chargeable with knowledge of exculpatory evidence which he would have discovered had he investigated readily available sources of information.
We disagree. We have never interpreted Sevigny, which involved a warrantless arrest, to mean that the police must, to comply with the Fourth Amendment, investigate all sources of possibly exculpatory information. This is neither a case of the police pursuing mutually contradictory theories, nor of the police pursuing charges which would have been ruled out as flatly unsupportable with readily available information, but of a police officer seeking an arrest warrant based upon the statement of one witness whose credibility was in factual dispute. Danner's failure to investigate further is but one factor in both the qualified immunity and probable cause questions.
Given that Danner sought an arrest warrant, the question is "whether a reasonably well-trained officer in[Danner's] position would have known that his affidavit failed to establish probable cause and that he should not have applied for the warrant." Malley v. Briggs, 475 U.S. 335, 345 (1986). The District Court's instructions, read as a whole, properly charged the jury on both qualified immunity and probable cause, and the jury's verdict indicates that the jury necessarily found the witness credible and Danner's reliance on the witness's statement therefore reasonable.
Barnes also argues that the trial court's instructions regarding probable cause were improper. However, since we find that Danner was entitled to qualified immunity, we need not address whether Danner acted with probable cause. Torchinsky v. Siwinski, 942 F.2d 257, 260 (4th Cir.1991).
The district court granted a judgment as a matter of law on the state law claim of malicious prosecution. In order to sustain an action for malicious prosecution, the plaintiff must establish that the criminal proceeding was terminated in his favor. Jordan v. Deese, 452 S.E.2d 838, 839 (S.C.1995). A nolle prosse may establish that the criminal proceeding was terminated in the accused's favor, provided it is "entered under circumstances which imply or are consistent with innocence of the accused." McKenney v. Jack Eckerd Co., 402 S.E.2d 887 (1991), overruling Harrelson v. Johnson, 111 S.E. 882 (S.C.1922).
While the District Court may have erred by holding that the prosecutor's subjective beliefs were determinative on whether the nolle prosse was consistent with Barnes' innocence, this is at most harmless error. In addition to the requirement of favorable termination, other elements of South Carolina's tort of malicious prosecution include "malice in instituting the proceedings" and "lack of probable cause." Jordan v. Deese, 452 S.E.2d 838, 839 (S.C.1995). The jury's verdict on the federal § 1983 claims necessarily negates one or both of these elements on the state law claim.
Barnes also has sought retrial complaining of Danner's being permitted to introduce evidence of Barnes' wealth. While that would normally be reversible error necessitating a new trial, United States v. Socony-Vacuum Oil Co., 310 U.S. 150, 239 (1940), there is an exception applicable here where the other party has already introduced evidence of financial condition. Blankenship v. Rowntree, 219 F.2d 597, 598 (10th Cir.1955).
The plaintiff testified regarding his wealth and business accomplishments as general background. He testified that he was in the banking business for sixteen years. J.A. at 484. In addition, he testified that he operated a nursing home business and operated and owned nine roller skating rinks. He also testified that the bingo operation paid over fifty-five thousand dollars in admission and sales tax every month. J.A. 486. Hence, although trial courts should avoid admitting references to wealth, it was not an abuse of discretion for the district court to admit proof of Barnes' financial condition since Barnes already introduced such evidence.
Accordingly, the judgment is

The story of Jack, the intrepid boy whose courage and ingenuity defeated a host of many-headed giants, has been told to children for hundreds of years. In 1842, when he was just 18, Richard Doyle, whose natural talent for draftsmanship was matched by imaginative invention and a passion for legend and the grotesque, created a picture-book version of Jack the Giant Killer, with hand-written text and a watercolor within a pictorial border decorating every page. It has remained one of the most beloved versions of this timeless tale.In this new Everyman's edition, Doyle's vivid, wonderfully engaging illustrations have been enlarged and the text has been given greater legibility. It is a book that will satisfy both the child's delight in scariness, wonder, and magic, and the collector's pleasure in classic Victorian illustration.
About the Author
Richard Doyle (1824-1883) was a notable illustrator of the Victorian era. He lived in London, England.

TPWD News Release — Feb. 2, 2004
AUSTIN, Texas Turkey hunters in East Texas could be looking at a month-long spring season and opportunities in additional counties beginning in 2005 if proposals by state wildlife biologists pass muster.
The recommendation by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department to double the season length for eastern turkeys to 30 days with an April 1 opener marks another milestone in the state's successful effort to restore the wild turkey on suitable habitat in East Texas. Since 1987, Texas has worked with the National Wild Turkey Federation and other partners to transplant from other states more than 7,000 wild, trapped eastern turkeys to the Pineywoods. Texas hunters paid the $3.5 million price tag for the project.
Since 1995 when Texas' first spring eastern turkey hunting season was opened in Red River County, TPWD has maintained a conservative approach a 14-day season, mandatory check stations, one gobbler bag limit to give the birds ample opportunity to establish themselves in new haunts. As turkey numbers have increased and flocks expand into new areas, the agency has steadily increased hunting opportunity by opening a spring season in 42 East Texas counties.
Other proposals offered by TPWD would add two more counties to the mix beginning in 2005, Hardin and Liberty, and expand the season to encompass all of two others, Montgomery and Tyler counties.
The recommendations were presented to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission's Regulations Committee at its Jan. 28 meeting. Each year, TPWD considers changes in hunting and fishing regulations to achieve resource management objectives and maximize outdoor recreation opportunities.
TPWD will be gathering public input at public meetings during February and March, and the commission will determine the final regulation changes at its April 8 meeting.
In addition to the turkey season proposals, TPWD is considering modifications to the late youth-only deer season designed to reduce confusion and increase opportunity. If approved as proposed, the changes would extend the same opportunities granted youth during the early youth-only season to the late season, including the opportunity to harvest bucks where county regulations provide that option.
Other recommendations advanced by the agency include:
Public comment about these issues and others of interest may be made at any upcoming public meeting or to TPWD, Attn: Robert Macdonald for wildlife issues, Paul Hammerschmidt for saltwater issues and Ken Kurzawski for freshwater issues, 4200 Smith School Road, 78744, or by phoning (800) 792-1112 or by visiting the Web (http://tpwd.texas.gov/).

Dual loyalty is a term used in the field of ethics to describe, a situation where a person has loyalty to two separate interests which potentially conflict with each other.
A frequently cited example of the term "dual loyalty" is used in connection with physicians who must balance, on the one hand, the physician's loyalty to a patient (and/or the regulations that govern the physician-patient relationship), and on the other hand, the institution or country for which the physician serves.
For example, a doctor who is asked by a government to assess a prisoner's fitness to withstand torture faces an enormous ethical dillema because of the competing loyalties of the doctor to the state versus the physican's code of ethics and his/her commitment to a patient's human rights. [1]

The Tigers have handed the fifth starter's job to Rick Porcello:
The Tigers told rookie right-handed pitcher Rick Porcello on Wednesday that he has earned a spot in the starting rotation. The news follows an impressive outing Tuesday by Porcello, 20, who allowed two hits over five innings in a 7-2 loss to Washington.
By my reckoning, that makes a rotation of Justin Verlander, Edwin Jackson, Armando Gallaraga, Porcello and hmmm. Zach Miner? Nate Robertson? If it's not Robertson — and we're really talking about choices among some really bad options here — do the Tigers have the guts to cut another guy owed multiple millions, or do they keep him around? I'd have to guess they hold on to him because you never know when someone's arm is going to fall off, but wouldn't it be something if the Tigers dumped two guys owed a collective $31 million in the space of a few days?
UPDATE: Looks like that question has been answered.

Tracing the Century, presented at Tate Liverpool this autumn, highlights drawing's fundamental role as a catalyst and vehicle for change in modern and contemporary art. The exhibition includes around one hundred artworks from the Tate Collection together with key loans by artists such as Sara Barker, Leon Golub, Jasper Johns, Julie Mehretu, Matthew Monahan, Richard Tuttle and Hannah Wilke. Programmed in parallel with Tracing the Century, a new commission by Matt Saunders in the Wolfson Gallery will look at new drawing practices.
Tracing the Century has at its heart artworks based on the human body and the inner self, opening up the conversation between figuration and abstraction that characterised art in the twentieth century. Rather than approaching abstraction and figuration separately, the exhibition will integrate these genres to explore the continuous slippage between the two. The exhibition will move from the preliminary sketch to painting, sculpture, photography and film, acknowledging the broader role drawing played within modernism. In Tracing the Century, works are brought together into small, often trans-historical groupings: for example a sequence of works on paper by Paul Cézanne, Paul Klee, Richard Hamilton, Lee Bontecou and Julie Mehretu proposes drawing as a means of conjuring imaginary worldscapes. The groupings demonstrate points of contact or crossroads between artists through the practice of drawing.
Drawing's ability to transcend a fixed set of materials and conventions hasensured the medium's vitality and power to stimulate change. A number of works in the exhibition, such as Anthony McCall's Line Describing a Cone 1973, serve to erode the conventional definition of drawing as a static line on a two-dimensional plane. In McCall's work, visitors can explore the projected line by moving around it, interacting with it and moving within the cone of light created.
The exhibition features a number of works presented at Tate for the first time since acquisition, such asWilliam Orpen's meticulously detailed representations of the human figure, Anatomical Studies 1906, used by students to study anatomy during the early part of the century. Important works on paper by Raymond Pettibon, and a major installation of twenty-six drawings by Fernando Bryce will be on display. A trilogy of animated films by William Kentridge, rarely seen together, will also be exhibited.
Accompanying Tracing the Century will be a new commission by Matt Saunders entitled Century Rolls. Exhibited as silver gelatin prints, Saunders' enigmatic works on paper are created by projecting light through a drawing or painting to expose a sheet of photosensitive paper. Alongside these prints will be a new animated film made from a huge number of ink on mylar drawings, edited into hypnotic moving images. Saunders' inventive use of materials, which unites drawing, photography and film, offers another way to engage with the themes within Tracing the Century.
Tracing the Century is curated by Gavin Delahunty, Head of Exhibitions and Displays, Tate Liverpool, andKatharine Stout, Curator of Contemporary British Art, Tate, assisted by Stephanie Straine, Assistant Curator, Tate Liverpool. The exhibition will tour to Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art (mima) from 22 March –23 June 2013.

Exposing Puppet And Facter Information On The WebNov 2, 2011 · 2 minute read
I don't appear to have been in a writing mood recently but I've been getting back into hacking on a couple of pet projects. The first fruits of this coding (mainly backwards and forwards on the train) I've just made available to anyone interested.
Web Facter is a gem which takes the output from Facter and exposes this as JSON over HTTP. In theory you could run this on a configurable port on each of your machines and have a URL you can hit to get information on uptime, networking setup, hostnames or anything else exposed by Facter. It comes with a simple built-in web server and optional http basic authentication if you're not going to do this via a proxy. The JSON display should be both human and machine readable, and I have a few ideas for projects which needed this information.
The other project is very similar, and even has a similar name, Web Puppet. You can run this on your puppet master and it exposes the node information (currently including the facts and tags) again as JSON over HTTP. I'm still working on this to make it a little more usable. At the moment it just shows you all nodes and all information, if you're working with a larger cluster this isn't really sensible. Recent versions of Puppet do have an HTTP based API but it requires some hoops to be jumped through and I'm not quite sure from the docs it lets me do what I want (I have a specific usecase, of which more soon all being well).
Both projects have had me reading the source code of Puppet and Facter, which for the most part has been enjoyable and informative. Puppet in particular has some great comments lying around :) Both of the above projects are available as gems for anyone else to play around with and build on, but my main aim is a little more high level. All being well I'll have a couple of projects built atop these APIs shortly.

Our Skin Cancer Main Article provides a comprehensive look at the who, what, when and how of Skin Cancer
Medical Definition of Squamous cells
Squamous cells: Flat cells that look like fish scales. The word "squamous" came from the Latin squama meaning "the scale of a fish or serpent."
We have a lot of squamous cells. They make up most of the cells in the outer layer of the skin (the epidermis), the passages of the respiratory and digestive tracts, and the linings of the hollow organs of the body. We are more fish-like (or serpent-like) than we may think.

| Fist-ta-Cuff Radio recently invited UFC Bantamweight number one contender, Eddie Wineland, in to talk all the recent unfortunate events involving his fight at UFC 161. With Wineland's scheduled title fight with Renan Barao at this week's UFC 161 event being scrapped due to injury to the Interim Champ, Wineland had a lot to discuss with our boys Denny and Anton. Aside from his title shot being put on hold and, sadly, in question, Wineland happily discussed parts of his life outside of fighting, the proverbial 'blessing in disguise' with his fight being cancelled, and how training changes now that he's not fighting. Here are some of the highlights from Wineland's interview with Fist-ta-Cuff Radio:
Wineland addressed the unfortunate situation with Barao getting hurt and him not getting his title shot at UFC 161 this weekend, but explained how he is looking at the bright side of the situation by viewing the injury as time to improve even more before getting his shot:
"I think that every time I start a training camp I start on a higher platform than I did the previous camp. It's kind of like a ladder effect, you know? I start at one point and I reach one point and then take a couple of weeks off, so we drop back a couple points but I'm starting at a higher platform every time. So essentially, like I said, I had ten weeks in the books when Renan got hurt. So I got a full training camp. But for my next training camp I'm going to start even higher yet. So my next training camp I'm going to be in even better shape."
Not only does Wineland feel that he will be in better shape for his next camp but he also explained that coming into the next camp without any damage from a fight is going to be beneficial:
"I just had a training camp without having a fight. So for my next fight it's almost like I'm having two training camps. So whoever it may be that I'm fighting…Renan or whoever…I feel bad for them."
Eddie Wineland is only getting better as time goes on and he knows that the extra work is going to make him an even fiercer fighter. He also discussed how his training changes now that he doesn't have a scheduled fight coming up:
"We gear more toward strength, gaining strength while not trying to gain size. It's a tricky thing but we've done it the last four years. I think I've gained four or five pounds since I've been with him but my strength has gone up ridiculous. So we kind of gear toward strength as oppose to conditioning. We still do our conditioning portion, just not as much. And um, just a lot of technique work in the gym and, you know, working different techniques, stuff I'm not so sharp on and trying to sharpen my skill set."
The current uncertainty in the UFC bantamweight division was brought up during the interview as well. With Champion Dominick Cruz still rehabbing his ACL reconstruction and now Interim Champ Renan Barao on the mend with torn tendons in his foot Wineland was asked if the thought of introducing another title into the division sounded appealing to him. Wineland didn't like the idea, saying, "How many champions can you have in one division?"
That question was followed up by questions about possibly changing weight classes like many of the other fighters in the lower weight classes in the UFC have done, like title-chaser Anthony Pettis. Wineland didn't like that idea either, explaining, "No. No. I'm comfortable where I'm at. I started at 135, I'll end at 135. There's for surely absolutely no possible way I would make 125. I'm sitting at about 155 lbs. right now. Uh, 135 is hard for me to make. You know, I make it happen. It becomes a mental thing." He went on to explain that he didn't think that moving up to featherweight was a great idea either, considering he would have to bulk up his natural weight of 155 pounds to actually make a legitimate run at a title in that weight class.
The conversation of weight cutting and fluctuation continued and Wineland and the boys in shop discussed how intense and tough the entire process can be on an athlete, let alone a regular person. When asked what kind of person would put themselves through such a rigorous routine for each fight Wineland stated, "I don't know what you'd call it but it's a different breed of people."
The conversation then shifted to the new look that Windeland is so fashionably rocking these days (seen in his picture above). When asked how the mustache look started Wineland explained, "Me and a buddy of mine, we grow them every year. I grew one, I started growing one last December and I think I ended up shaving it just before March, or just before April, whatever it was. And then I started growing another one this year, I stared growing it right after the Pickett fight and uh, I was kind of lost. I didn't really…I liked the mustache but I didn't like my look. So I jumped on Google and typed in 'handle-bar mustache'. And the thing that pops up was an article that said the one thing that compliments the handle-bar mustache is a well groomed haircut."
He went to explain that as he was searching for a new style to compliment his mustache a friend recommended a specific style, saying, "You need the cut called The Princeton."
"It's like a comb over but its real nice and groomed real well."
So Wineland took the advice and is now rocking the Princeton hair cut. He continued,
"I had my mustache twisted up and my hair done up and that's where it starts. It started right there and I stuck with the mustache, I stuck with the hair and my mustache is good enough now that I don't even have to wax it and it curls."
"We're going for the John L. Sullivan just kind of in your face, rough and nasty. You know, I'm a man and I'm going to kick your ass."
As Mr. Wineland prepared to say his parting words before leaving the show the conversation shifted back to fighting and he was asked about who he's like to fight if the bout with Barao doesn't come back his way. Wineland stated, "I want to prove that I am number one and to prove that I'm number one I have to beat number one. And that's why I want those fights."
Wineland is a top-five bantamweight in the world and has fought only top competition since his assimilation into the UFC in 2011. He is rightfully in line to fight for the belt and waiting may be his best option. For now, Wineland is enjoying his life away from fighting. We thank him for taking the time to talk with our boys at BJPenn.com's Fist-Ta-Cuff Radio and we look forward to seeing him fight again in the near future.

The Fall, Sin and its Punishment
What is The Fall, Sin and its Punishment?
God created Adam upright and perfect, and gave him a righteous law which secured life for him while he kept it, but threatened death if he broke it. Yet Adam did not live long in this position of honour.[1] Satan used the subtlety of the serpent to subdue Eve, she seduced Adam, and Adam (without any compulsion) wilfully transgressed the law of their creation and the command given to them by eating the forbidden fruit.[2]God was pleased to permit this act, according to His wise and holy counsel, as it was His purpose to direct it toward His own glory.[3]
By this sin our first parents fell from their original righteousness and communion with God. We fell in them, for by it death came upon all;[4]all became dead in sin and totally defiled in all the faculties and parts of soul and body.[5]
By God's appointment, they were the root, standing in the place of the whole human race. The guilt of this sin was imputed to, and their corrupted nature passed on to all their posterity by ordinary birth. Their descendants are therefore conceived in sin, and are by nature children of wrath, the servants of sin, the subjects of death and all other miseries—spiritual, temporal, and eternal—unless the Lord Jesus sets them free.[6]
All actual transgressions proceed from this original corruption.[7]By it we are completely incapacitated and disabled, antagonistic to all good and entirely biased towards evil.[8]
During this life, this corruption of nature remains in those who are regenerated.[9]Although it is pardoned and put to death through Christ, yet both this corrupt nature and all its actions are truly and actually sin.[10]

Kashrut Instructions
DESCRIPTION: Broccoli is a green vegetable resembling a miniature tree. Its thick central stem divides into many smaller branches, which are crowned with tightly clustered green florets.
INFESTATION: Broccoli may be infested with a variety of insects, most prominently aphids and thrips. The aphids are green or white, but will often turn brown during the parboiling (partial cooking) that is done to prepare the vegetable for inspection (see Inspection, below). The thrips are usually black or gray.
Also present at times is the broccoli worm, a thin white or light greenish worm of about a half inch's length. This worm, when present, is difficult to discern because it looks like one of the thin stems.
Our research has indicated that infestation levels of broccoli grown domestically (USA, Canada, but not Mexico) vary by season. During the winter months, (approximately November through March), infestation level is around 10%. Broccoli grown during this season should be inspected. During the summer months (the remaining seven months of the year), broccoli can be heavily infested, and inspection is often impractical. Broccoli from Mexico is infested throughout the year. It is primarily used for frozen broccoli products.
INSPECTION: When checking broccoli, a well-lit area should be chosen. This aids in discerning an insect from the floret pieces. It should be noted that cleaning infested broccoli is not feasible. The purpose of inspection is to determine if the broccoli is infested. Once infestation is detected, the floret portion of the head must be discarded. One cannot be certain that all insects will be discovered and removed. However, the stem portion may be separated, washed and consumed.
Fresh broccoli-stems:
Broccoli stems may be used after a thorough washing. No further checking is necessary.
Fresh broccoli (whole):
- It is virtually impossible to perform a comprehensive inspection on raw broccoli. Parboil the broccoli for ten seconds to soften the florets and stems. An additional benefit of parboiling is that aphids often turn from green to brown and the florets from light to dark lush green. The contrast of colors makes the insects more easily detectable after this process. Submerge in cold water immediately after parboiling to preserve the flavor and firmness of the vegetable.
- It is important to segregate each head individually when processing more than one head of broccoli. If a section of a broccoli head shows infestation, the entire head must be discarded.
- Inspect each floret section:
- Look carefully at the under part (i.e., the branched area) of each floret. It is important to check the Y-shaped crevice between the branches.
- Spread each floret head apart and look inside the floret from the top¬ down (i.e., through the green flower buds, into the branch area).
- If one OR two insects are found, special care should be taken in examining the remaining sections of that broccoli head. Should a total of three insects be found, either in a particular section or spread among different sections of the same broccoli head, the entire head should be discarded.
Alternative method:
- While parboiling the broccoli as described above, agitate the vegetable in the boiling water and bang it against the side of the pot several times.
- After removing the broccoli and submerging it in cold water, check a sampling of the parboiled water in a glass bowl over a light box.
- If insects appear in the water, each floret must be checked meticulously.
- If no insects appear in the water, the broccoli may be used after running a strong stream of water through the head from top to bottom and from bottom to top.
Beware: Insects like company. If even one insect is found, the entire head must be checked most scrupulously.
Please note: erudite displays should not include raw broccoli due to the impossibility of properly checking raw broccoli.

South Korea's president Park Geun-Hye on Monday hinted that the administration is preparing for extra spending worth around 5 trillion won ($4.25 billion) to help pull Asia's fourth-largest economy out of its prolonged slump.
"Listed companies currently own cashable assets worth about 52 trillion won, and if they invest only 10 per cent of it, it would be similar to the expanded budget spending that the government is working on," a presidential statement quoted her as telling policy secretaries at a Monday morning meeting.
Finance Minister Hyun Oh-seok told lawmakers at a parliament committee hearing that the government's planned extra budget would be financed via roughly 16 trillion won worth of bond sales.
"I believe it is possible to reach 2.7 per cent or 2.8 per cent economic growth if the government's policies are implemented," Hyun said, adding that the government's current forecast of 2.3 per cent growth did not factor in policy effects.
The comments come as the government prepares to submit a bill for a supplementary budget, the centrepiece of its stimulus package, to parliament later this week.
The government has said it will use the supplementary budget to boost employment, support smaller firms and provide additional support for the working class.

When shopping for a new data processing platform for IoT solutions, many development teams want to be able to test-drive options before making a choice. Yet when evaluating an IoT solution, it's simply not feasible to do so at scale with physical devices. Building a sensor simulator is the next best choice; however, generating a realistic simulation at very high TPS with ease of configurability is a formidable challenge. When dealing with multiple application or transport protocols, you would be...

IoT is at the core or many Digital Transformation initiatives with the goal of re-inventing a company's business model. We all agree that collecting relevant IoT data will result in massive amounts of data needing to be stored.

And with the lack of IoT history, traditional methods of IT and infrastructure planning based on the past do not app...

The 'I Ain't Thru' singer and her object of affection go to the beach in a fine summer day, walking hand-in-hand and sharing laughs.
Keyshia Cole hits the shores in a music video filmed for her single "Take Me Away". The R&B crooner busts her moves in a choreographed dance and enjoys a back massage with her girl friends. She also walks hand in hand with her on-screen love interest along the beach. "Take me away, see you in everything I do," she sings.
"Take Me Away" is taken from Keyshia's latest studio installment "Calling All Hearts" which has been in stores since December 2010. The song comes from production hands of Chink Santana, and its music video is directed by Taj Stansberry.
Earlier this year, Keyshia Cole fired her manager Manny Halley. Words are, she was unhappy because Manny failed to make a proper promotion for the album. The record could only debut at No. 9 on Billboard Hot 200, marking her lowest-charting album so far. In the second week of release, it fell to No. 10 before getting kicked out of the list in its third week.
"Someone said if the people around u won't change, change the people around you," she tweeted. "If you always do what you always did. You'll always get wht you always got..... Stop being afraid. Its ok to change for the better. Trust me."

New York, August 28 (ANI): A man, from Phoenix, Arizona, who died at 87, had apparently fathered 54 children with different women, during his long life.
Samuel Delbert Whitney's step daughter Lexie Woods found bottles of 100 milligram Viagra and a pile of birth certificates in his apartment after his death in July, the New York Daily News reported.
Now, 68-year-old Woods has taken upon herself to bring Whitney's biological children together, as the old man had never talked about how, when, or why he sowed his wild oats.
Woods told the publication that she wants to find these children and let them know that they have a family that loves them and wants to know them. (ANI)

The UEFA Futsal Cup comprises three group stages and a four-team final tournament.
Preliminary round
Depending on the number of entrants, the lower-ranked nations are drawn into three or four-team mini-tournaments played at the start of the season. Each mini-tournament is staged by one of the clubs and each team plays each other once with the group winners progressing.
Main round
The preliminary round winners join all but the four highest-ranked entrants excused the previous stage. They are drawn into six groups of four, staged as one-venue mini-tournaments, with the top two teams going through.
Elite round
The 12 teams progressing from the main round join the four top seeds and are drawn into four groups of four teams. The winners of the one-venue mini-tournaments in late autumn progress to the finals.
The four-team finals are held over a weekend in late April and hosted by one of the qualifiers. The tournament is played as a knockout with the semi-finals followed two days later by the final and third-place play-off. If the third-place match is level after 40 minutes it goes straight to penalties, in the other games ten minutes of extra time will be played.
Further details, including the criteria for separating teams that finish level on points in a group, or after extra time in a match, can be found in the
official competition regulations.
Capacity: 2,200
Opened: 2009
• The complex was opened in August 2009 by Azerbaijan president Ilham Aliye.
• The multi-purpose arena in the Azerbaijani capital is used for boxing, taekwondo, basketball, gymnastics, volleyball and wrestling as well as futsal.
• Baku, 28 metres below sea level, is in the far east of Azerbaijan. Among its attractions is the famed Walled City.
• Host club Araz Naxçivan have dominated Azerbaijani futsal since switching from football in 2004, winning all nine league championships they have entered. They finished third in the 2010 UEFA Futsal Cup and made the semis again four years later, selected as hosts.

KATY, Texas - The 16-year-old who was shot while sitting in the front passenger seat of a car Tuesday night has been identified.
Investigators said Greg Reese was in a car parked outside of a barbershop off of Kieth Harrow Boulevard when one of four other males in the car discharged a gun, striking Reese.
The boys then drove Reese to Texas Children's Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Reese was a student at Cypress Lakes High School. His parents told Local 2 that their son was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Harris County Sheriff's Deputies are investigating the case. It is still not known who owned the gun and whether charges will be filed.

There are several givens to Isanti's annual Rodeo Jubilee celebration: the weather will be hot, the fun events numerous, and the Redbirds will win the Outhouse Races.
The Redbirds rolled to their third consecutive Outhouse Race championship and eighth total in the event's 22-year history, which included the incredible five-straight string from 2002-2006. They had a little more incentive to look good since the "Birdettes"– a team a of Redbird wives and girlfriends– were entered in the races for the first time and did okay, taking 4th place.
The Redbirds, with pushers Packy Lind, Tyler Schaff & Kyle Johnson and veteran rider/runner Nate Brutsman, put on a precision display while going 4-0 to take home the top trophy. The Scotsman/Isanti County News team of pushers Kameron Kytonen, Matt Andres, Austin Hunt and aging rider/runner Greg Hunt challenged the 'Birds in the final winners' bracket heat but were no match for the champs in the final bout (Curse that slippery cob!).
Team leader Packy Lind always designs a tough off-season regimen to ready the Redbird team for the Outhouse championships. "We took a trip to Mount Kilminjaro, pushed the house up and down it a few times to see how she'd handle the rocks. It felt good," he said. "Went to Nepal for a couple days."
"There were a lot of trees down there. You really had to have your oxygen level topped out down there," chimed in Outhouse veteran Tyler Schaff.
For the 23rd annual Outhouse Races in 2012, what do you have to say to any team thinking they can come in and take the cherished trophy away from the Bird squad?
"It's good to see a whole bunch of teams show up to take 2nd," said cocky Coach Packy. Added Schaff, "I'd like to see the (Rum River) Bandits out here, too."

21.06.2011 Detroit Sex & Relationships Examiner: Review by Lena Drake
….There's a new German product on the market, and it's pretty self-explanatory– it's a tiny bottled product called VULVA Original, long-researched to mimic vaginal scent, from the company Vivaeros. The intent is less about perfume, and more about smelling for your "personal pleasure".
The final word: There's nothing like the real thing, and every woman is different, but VULVA Original isn't too far off. Since the product is intended for arousal/masturbation, and masturbation keeps people happy and healthy, it gets a thumbs up.

Vietnam's Quest for Influence and Its Implications for the Management of Border Disputes with Laos and Cambodia
Through providing a historical overview of border disputes between Vietnam and neighbouring Laos and Cambodia in Indochina, the article aims to evaluate the success gained by Vietnam in its efforts to secure the western and southwestern land border and thus maintain a peaceful external environment for the domestic reform. Since the Cambodian endgame, Vietnam has sought to improve political relations with all neighbours (including China) and, on that basis, consistently applied fundamental principles of international law while adopting the region's common practice in order to resolve border issues. In return, the Communist leadership in Laos and the Hun Sen regime in Cambodia have been eager to sustain the Cold War border treaty system with Vietnam in order to stabilize the border, address cross-border non-traditional security issues, and ensure Vietnam's assistance for economic development and regime security. In addition, Vietnam's border disputes with Cambodia prove harder to deal with because the latter s domestic power struggle has turned the issue into a political card played by opposition parties in their election campaigns.
