Provincial Criterium Cycling Championship At Chin Picnic
Courtesy Peter McCaffery - Midweek Club
Online Pre-registration
July 1st, Exhibition Place, Toronto ON
Last year one of the most popular events at the annual CHIN Picnic was the Bicycle racing. Absent from the event lineup for a number of years, the fast, spectacular series of circuit races made a welcome return to the Picnic due to the efforts of the Midweek Cycling Club.
This year's event is special because it is also the provincial criterium championship and an Ontario Cup event, features that will attract a top-class field from across eastern Canada and the North eastern USA. Plans are also in place to invite teams from some of the countries featured on CHIN Radio International.
For those unfamiliar with criterium racing, it is a high speed cycling event on a closed circuit with the riders averaging over 40 kph and finishing sprints of 70 kph plus. The distances vary with the categories of rider but the senior pro/am event is over 100 kilometers and will take just over 2 hours. Total prize purse for the day is over $6,000
Racing on the fully barricaded 1 kilometre course starts at 7 am with the 40+ age group doing a 1 hour event. The masters riders are followed by a series of I hour races for senior 3 juniors and women. The showcase event, featuring the top performers, with teams from Ital Pasta, Midweek Elite, Gears Racing and Jet Fuel goes at 11:45am with nationally ranked men doing battle for the CHIN Picnic and Ontario championship honours.
As added value for the large number of spectators, the riders in some of the events will contest intermediate "primes" Prizes for these mini-contests are offered by the crowd and some of the race sponsors.
So come out on Canada Day and make the CHIN Bike race a must on your race itinerary.

The English Beat
One of the earliest and most important ska revivalist groups, Birmingham's the Beat formed in 1978 (the band had to change its name to the English Beat in the U.S. to avoid confusion with Paul Collins' band of the same name). The multiracial band carved a distinct sound through the use of alternating lead vocals by guitarist Dave Wakeling and punk toaster/rapper Ranking Roger, supported by a tight band consisting of Andy Cox (guitar), David Steele (bass), and Everett Moreton (drums). The addition of 50-year-old saxophonist Saxa, who originally played with Prince Buster and Desmond Dekker, gave the band credibility and fleshed out its sound. An opening spot for the Selecter led to the band's signing to 2-Tone, where they released the hit single "Tears of a Clown," a wonderful version of the Smokey Robinson classic. In 1980, the band decided to form its own 2-Tone-inspired label, Go-Feet (distributed by Arista). A string of hit singles followed in the U.K., including "Mirror in the Bathroom." Their debut LP, I Just Can't Stop It, combined the early hits with other pop/ska-oriented material. "Stand Down Margaret," with its anti-Thatcher stance, found the band moving in a more political direction, leading to several benefit gigs for "radical" causes. Musically, the Beat slowed down the tempo for a more traditional reggae sound showcased on 1981's Wha'ppen. This direction failed to bring the chart success of its predecessor. Featuring a more pop-oriented approach, 1982's Special Beat Service helped the band increase its U.S. fan base through MTV exposure of "Save It for Later" and "I Confess," but the bandmembers decided to call it quits early the following year. Wakeling and Ranking Roger went on to form General Public, and Cox and Steele formed Fine Young Cannibals. ~ Chris Woodstra, Rovi

NAIROBI, Kenya, August 27, 2016 (Al Jazeera) -- Japan will invest $30bn in Africa over the next three years, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has pledged at a summit in Kenya.
Starting this year, Japan will make a $10bn investment in the continent's infrastructure development, focusing on electrical power, urban transport systems, roads and ports, Abe said at the Saturday opening of the Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD).
TOKYO, Japan, August 21, 2016 (TICAD/WPost) -- On August 27 and 28, the Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD) – the key platform to drive Japan's development initiatives in Africa – will be held in Nairobi, Kenya.
While Africa has made great gains since the turn of the century, the collapse in prices of natural resources, the Ebola crisis and the rise of violent extremism and terrorism have highlighted the fragility of African development. The upcoming conference offers a timely opportunity to address the important challenges Africa faces today.
MOSCOW, August 13, 2016 (Buziness Africa) -- Over the past two decades, Russia's efforts to regain its Soviet-era influence in Africa have achieved little success because "times have changed significantly, for example, a new economic and political environment, new emerging challenges, new competitive conditions and new bases for cooperation," according to Nataliya Zaiser, a Public Policy Advisor at Squire Patton Boggs Moscow office covering Russia, the Eurasian Union and Africa, and also the Chair (Head) of the Africa Business Initiative.
By Kester Kenn Klomegah*
MOSCOW, July 15, 2016 (Buziness Africa) -- As already well-known since Soviet days, Russia has pursued a pragmatic policy aimed at enhancing multidimensional ties with the countries of the continent on the bilateral and multilateral basis. Experts say while building mutually beneficial cooperation remains one of the main priorities of Russia, its economic cooperation with Africa has hit stumbling blocks, for example, trade turnover with the countries of sub-Saharan Africa for the period from January to December 2015 was estimated at US$ 3.3 billion.
ANKARA, Turkey, June 10, 2016 (Media Release) -- Over the next days, Turkey's political and business leaders will embark on a historic visit to Uganda, Kenya and Somalia. We will seek to promote closer cooperation with our regional allies, develop solutions to shared challenges and explore mutually beneficial opportunities.
By Frederic Musisi
KAMPALA, Uganda, June 30, 2016 (The East African) -- A Russian consortium RT Global Resources, which was announced as the best preferred bidder for the financing and construction of the $4 billion greenfield oil refinery in Hoima in western Uganda has walked away from the deal in unclear circumstances.

Eakins was born in Philadelphia where his father worked as a writing master. He studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and attended anatomy lectures at Jefferson Medical College. He traveled to Paris in 1866 where he studied for three years, mostly with the French academic painter Jean-Léon Gérôme at the École des Beaux-Arts. Upon his return, Eakins painted athletic subjects and genre paintings, which he exhibited in national exhibitions alongside other young, European-educated artists who made figures, rather than the landscape, the focus of their paintings. Eakins began to teach at the Pennsylvania Academy in 1876 and transformed it into the nation's leading art school. The focus of Eakins' instruction was the nude figure, and he was dismissed from the Academy for using a nude model in a lecture directed at male and female students. At the request of his most devoted pupils, after his dismissal, Eakins opened the Philadelphia Art Students' League. After 1887, Eakins devoted himself to portraiture. Throughout his career, Eakins experimented with photography and complex perspectival systems to plan and compose his canvasses.Related worksClara Janney MatherDr. Frank Lindsay GreenewaltDr. Thomas H.

judge(redirected from pass judgement)
Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Idioms, Encyclopedia.
To make a decision or reach a conclusion after examining all the factual evidence presented. To form an opinion after evaluating the facts and applying the law.
A public officer chosen or elected to preside over and to administer the law in a court of justice; one who controls the proceedings in a courtroom and decides questions of law or discretion.
As a verb the term judge generally describes a process of evaluation and decision. In a legal case this process may be conducted by either a judge or a jury. Decisions in any case must be based on applicable law. Where the case calls for a jury verdict, the judge tells the jury what law applies to the case.
As a noun judge refers to a person authorized to make decisions. A judge is a court officer authorized to decide legal cases. A judge presiding over a case may initiate investigations on related matters, but generally judges do not have the power to conduct investigations for other branches or agencies of government.
Judges must decide cases based on the applicable law. In some cases a judge may be asked to declare that a certain law is unconstitutional. Judges have the power to rule that a law is unconstitutional and therefore void, but they must give proper deference to the legislative body that enacted the law.
There are two types of judges: trial court and appellate. Trial court judges preside over trials, usually from beginning to end. They decide pretrial motions, define the scope of discovery, set the trial schedule, rule on oral motions during trial, control the behavior of participants and the pace of the trial, advise the jury of the law in a jury trial, and sentence a guilty defendant in a criminal case.
Appellate judges hear appeals from decisions of the trial courts. They review trial court records, read briefs submitted by the parties, and listen to oral arguments by attorneys, and then decide whether error or injustice occurred in the trial.
Judges can also be distinguished according to their jurisdiction. For example, federal court judges differ from state court judges. They operate in different courtrooms, and they hear different types of cases. A federal court judge hears cases that fall within federal jurisdiction. Generally, this means cases that involve a question of federal law or the U.S. Constitution, involve parties from different states, or name the United States as a party. State court judges hear cases involving state law, and they also have jurisdiction over many federal cases.
Some judges can hear only certain cases in Special Courts with limited subject matter jurisdiction. For example, a federal Bankruptcy court judge may preside over only bankruptcy cases. Other special courts with limited Subject Matter Jurisdiction include tax, probate, juvenile, and traffic courts.
Justices make up the upper echelon of appellate judges. The term justice generally describes judges serving on the highest court in a jurisdiction. In some jurisdictions a justice may be any appellate judge.
Judges are either appointed or elected. On the federal level, district court judges, appellate court judges, and justices of the Supreme Court are appointed by the president subject to the approval of Congress. On the state level, judges may be appointed by the governor, selected by a joint ballot of the two houses of the state legislature, or elected by the voters of the state.
On the federal level, judges have lifetime tenure. Most state court judges hold their office for a specified number of years. If a state court judge is appointed by the governor, the judge's term may be established by the governor. In some states a judge's term is fixed by statute. All state jurisdictions have a mandatory retirement age. In New Hampshire, for example, a judge must retire by age 70 (N.H. Const. pt. 2, art. 78). There is no mandatory retirement age for justices and judges on the federal level.
Judges' retirement benefits are provided for by statute. On the federal level, a retiring judge may receive for the remainder of the judge's life the salary that she or he was receiving at the time of retirement. To qualify for retirement benefits, a judge must meet minimum service requirements. For example, a judge who retires at age 65 must have served 15 years as a judge in the federal court system; at age 66, 14 years; and so on until age 70 (§ 371). If a judge is forced to retire because of disability and has not qualified for benefits under § 371, the judge may still receive a full salary for life if she or he served 10 years. If the judge served less than 10 years, she or he may receive half of her or his salary for life (28 U.S.C.A. § 372).
Judges must follow ethical rules. In all jurisdictions statutes specify that a judge may hold office only during a time of good behavior. If a judge violates the law or an ethical rule, the judge may be removed from office. In jurisdictions in which judges are elected, they may be removed from office by popular vote or impeached by act of the legislature. In states where judges are appointed, the legislature or the governor is authorized to remove them from office, but only for ethical or legal violations. This is because the power of the judiciary is separate from and equal to the power of the legislative and executive branches, and unfettered control of the judiciary by the other two branches would upset the balance of power.
Judges are distinct from magistrates. Magistrates are court officers who are empowered by statute to decide pretrial issues and preside over minor cases. Their judicial powers are limited. In the federal court system, for example, magistrates may not preside over felony criminal trials. They may preside over civil trials and misdemeanor criminal trials, but only with the consent of all the parties (28 U.S.C.A. §§ 631–639).
Canons of Judicial Ethics; Code of Judicial Conduct; Court Opinion; Discretion in Decision Making; Judicial Action; Judicial Conduct; Judicial Review.
1) n. an official with the authority and responsibility to preside in a court, try lawsuits, and make legal rulings. Judges are almost always attorneys. In some states, "justices of the peace" may need only to pass a test, and federal and state "administrative law judges" are often lawyer or non-lawyer hearing officers specializing in the subject matter upon which they are asked to rule. The word "court" often refers to the judge, as in the phrase "the court found the defendant at fault," or "may it please the court," when addressing the judge. The word "bench" also refers to the judge or judges in general. Judges on appeals courts are usually called "Justices." Judges of courts established by a state at the county, district, city or township level, gain office by election, by appointment by the Governor, or by some judicial selection process in case of a vacancy. Federal Judges are appointed for life by the President of the United States with confirmation by the United States Senate. A Senator of the same party as the President has considerable clout in recommending federal judges from his/her home state. 2) v. to rule on a legal matter, including determining the result in a trial if there is no jury.

JUDGE. A public officer, lawfully appointed to decide litigated questions
according to law. This, in its most extensive sense, includes all officers
who are appointed to decide such questions, and not only judges properly so
called, but also justices of the peace, and jurors, who are judges of the
facts in issue. See 4 Dall. 229; 3 Yeates, IR. 300. In a more limited sense,
the term judge signifies an officer who is so named in his commission, and
who presides in some court.
2. Judges are appointed or elected, in a variety of ways, in the United States they are appointed by the president, by and with the consent of the senate; in some of the states they are appointed by the governor, the governor and senate, or by the legislature. In the United States, and some of the states, they hold their offices during good behaviour; in others, as in New York, during, good behaviour, or until they shall attain a certain age and in others for a limited term of years.
3. Impartiality is the first duty of a judge; before he gives an opinion, or sits in judgment in a cause, he ought to be certain that he has no bias for or against either of the parties; and if he has any (the slightest) interest in the cause, he is disqualified from sitting as judge; aliquis non debet esse judex in propria causa; 8 Co. 118; 21 Pick. Rep. 101; 5 Mass. 92; 13 Mass. 340; 6 Pick. R. 109; 14 S. & R. 157-8; and when he is aware of such interest, he ought himself to refuse to sit on the case. It seems it is discretionary with him whether he will sit in a cause in which he has been of counsel. 2 Marsh. 517; Coxe, 164; see 2 Binn. 454. But the delicacy which characterizes the judges in this country, generally, forbids their sitting in such a cause.
4. He must not only be impartial, but he must follow and enforce the law, whether good or bad. He is bound to declare what the law is, and not to make it; he is not an arbitrator, but an interpreter of the law. It is his duty to be patient in the investigation of the case, careful in considering it, and firm in his judgment. He ought, according to Cicero, "never to lose sight that he is a man, and that he cannot exceed the power given him by his commission; that not only power, but public confidence has been given to him; that he ought always seriously to attend not to his wishes but to the requisitions of law, of justice and religion." Cic. pro. Cluentius. A curious case of judicial casuistry is stated by Aulus Gellius Att. Noct. lib: 14, cap. 2, which may be interesting to the reader.
5. While acting within the bounds of his jurisdiction, the judge is hot responsible for any error of judgment, nor mistake he may commit as a judge. Co. Litt. 294; 2 Inst. 422; 2 Dall. R. 160; 1 Yeates, R. 443; N. & M'C. 168; 1 Day, R. 315; 1 Root, R. 211; 3 Caines, R. 170; 5 John. R. 282; 9 John. R. 395; 11 John. R. 150; 3 Marsh. R. 76; 1 South. R. 74; 1 N. H. Rep. 374; 2 Bay, 1, 69; 8 Wend. 468; 3 Marsh. R. 76,. When he acts corruptly, he may be impeached. 5 John. R. 282; 8 Cowen, R. 178; 4 Dall. R. 225.
6.

By Manasseh Zindo
May 3, 2008 — THE aero-plane has offended us once again, this time robbing us of distinguished sons and daughters of South Sudan in yet another tragic crash whose memory and scar will live with us for life.
Nearly three years after it robbed us of our founding father the late Dr. John Garang de Mabior, the aero-plane on Friday May 02, 2008 killed Lt. Gen Dominic Dim Deng, Government of South Sudan (GOSS) Minister for SPLA Affairs and veteran politician Dr. Justin Yac Arop who was also Adviser to the President of South Sudan for Decentralization.
I send my message of condolence to the President of South Sudan, the families of the deceased, the people of South Sudan, the Sudan Peoples Liberation Army (SPLA) and the Sudan people's Liberation Movement (SPLM).
Among those killed in the fatal crash about 400 km from Juba were several SPLA soldiers, crew of the ill-fatal plane and wives of Gen. Dim and Dr. Yac. May God rest their souls in peace and raise them again in glory when our Lord Jesus Christ and archangels returns to reign for over.
When holders of public office leaves either through indisposition, death or retirement, their legacy and life style are reflected on, this has prompt me to inscribe this article as I pay homage to these great leaders of our nation.
The name Justin Yac is no stranger to many in Sudan as whole apart from those who are not interested in politics but for those familiar with the activities and works of the SPLA/M, and those who lived under the SPLA controlled areas during the civil war in South Sudan, Justin Yac is a household name.
The powerful man of the movement lived in Nairobi during the liberation struggle and was close to the late Dr. John Garang. Dr. Yac knew where the former rebel leader turned statesman was at all times and whoever wanted to meet Dr. Garang whether like it or not had to seek the consent Justin Yac as he was commonly known. It was believed that he was running the show on behalf of Dr. Garang whenever the SPLA firebrand was out of Africa or on the ground inspecting his forces.
In Nairobi, there were other names such as Ambassador Steve Wound, Martin Okeruk, SPLM's respected diplomat and now GOSS Minister for Housing plus SPLM's long serving spokesman Dr. Samson Kwaje now GOSS Minister of Agriculture but the latter's did not wheeled power and influence like Justin Yac.
When the Government of South Sudan (GOSS) was formed in Oct 2005, Justin Yac was appointed Minister of Cabinet Affairs, a position he held until July 2007 when he was dropped in a government reshuffle but was reappointed Adviser to GOSS President for Decentralization, a reason why he died in the Friday plane crash as they were reported to be returning from a high level meeting in Wau to Juba.
In his position as the Minister of Cabinet Affairs, Justin Yac threw a ring around President Salva Kiir and like he did with Dr. Garang, he ensured that whoever wanted to meet the president had to seek his permission, at times barring Governors of States from accessing the President who is also the First Vice President of the Republic of Sudan.
Powerful man he was and could only be compared to Kenya's Nicholas Biwott, a onetime powerful minister of President Daniel Arap Moi's regime who declared himself the "Total man." Whether it was by design or by the structure of his positions that made him such a powerful man remains a mystery but being in the center of power and attention made Justin Yac a discussing topic for nearly three decades earning him many foes and friends alike.
There were talks in Juba prior to the formation of the first cabinet that the international community and donor countries had protested his inclusion and that of former finance minister Arthur Akuien Chol in the government for reasons that were not made public but the duo emerged the winners and served in the first cabinet of GOSS with authority until destiny caught up with them and they were sacked from their accolade offices.
Dr. Justin Yac will remembered for his contribution to the liberation struggle in many ways and for sure his name has entered the history book of South Sudan. He also struggled with poor health.
For Dominic Dim Deng, his sudden death came at a time when his contribution was needed most. The decorated army officer was little known during the liberation struggle to commoners but his appointment to the high profile docket brought him to light and fame being the first to occupy a portfolio which was left vacant when the first cabinet was formed.
Although Gen. Dim was not famous in the bush struggle it's understood that he was a very respected soldier. His colleagues like Gier Aloung, Thomas Siriro, Mamur Obote, Samuel Abujohn (RIP), James Wani Igga, Koul Manyang and Gen Jeddalla not forgetting Malik Agar were celebrated rebel leaders now high profile ministers, governors, decorated army officers and senior GOSS officials.
Lt. Gen Dim's office was cherished by many who lobbied for it in many ways but it was Dominic Dim Deng who won President Salva's heart and ascended to it in July 2007 but during his Ten months reign he has faced enormous problems such as the integration of the armed groups in South Sudan into the SPLA the official army of GOSS, stabilization of the SPLA, arrest of army officers like Lt. Gen Mamur Obote, the killing of senior police officers in Yambio by Joint Integrated Unit (JIU), tormenting of civilian population by Uganda's Lords Resistance Army (LRA), the issue of Ambororo (Arab nomads) and the high tension in Abyei among others.
Just in the week of his death, talk was ripe that Lt. Gen Mamur Obote was due to be released from prison and although not much is seen of Gen Dim's stay in office, he has accomplished a lot that commoners eye can't see at the moment and like others, his name will enter the history book of South Sudan for generations to read long after his promotion to everlasting life.
I learnt of the tragic accident through the BBC Focus on Africa Programme and I heard Mr. Philip Yona Jambi, GOSS Minister for Rural Development saying that the plane came down near Rumbek as a result of engine failure shortly after the pilot sought permission to make an emergency land at Rumbek Airport but I want the government to investigate the accident and make the findings public.
During my brief work in GOSS in 2005, the former governor of Western Equatoria State Col. Patrick Zamoi and his delegation including myself nearly lost our lives in what was to be assassination crash because one of our own was accused of boarding the plane with us from Juba International Airport to Yambio with the intention to blow the aircraft in terrorist style of homicide.
The security of our leaders is an issue that must be handled seriously for us to avoid unnecessary death of our brilliant leaders in plane crashes. I also caution the safety of these aircrafts operating in South Sudan that carry our leaders and gallant soldiers on daily basis.
In neighbouring Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) this past week, a plane crashed killing over 60 people and it later emerged that the plane had been banned from flying in Europe and one wonders why we (Africans) allow outdated planes to operate in our beautiful continent.
The civil aviation in South Sudan must earmarked aircrafts that are not fit to operate and ban them, leave alone allowing it to carry VIP's. I rest my case!

I have just returned from KY research on my Loves and Woffords. In the List of Guardians Book, 1843-1878 my ancestor, Andrew Love, is listed as guardian for Sarah W., Flora, Ayres K. and Nancy Clarinda Love. These are the children of his brother, William and Rebecca Knight. They are in Andrew's household in the 1860 census. Would you explain what the column, "Amt." means?
Thank you,
Carolyn Love

Do you mean the List of Guardians Book? If so, are you referring to the column "Amount Reported?" This is the amount of estate assets reported by the guardian (Andrew Love) to the county court. It is interesting that William Love's estate had been settled before the guardian was appointed for his children. My guess assets were discovered after the settlement of his estate. Not sure this helps, but maybe.

Yes, it is the List of Guardians Book and the "Amount Reported". I wasn't sure if it was assests or something Andrew was paying out. That clarifies it for me. Thank you again. Carolyn

Ritter's cabinet denied bonuses
Call it a perennial government outrage favorite: A top elected official on the way out the door decides it's A-OK to play a little loose with taxpayer money and (perhaps unfairly) reward his peeps.
Former Colorado Gov. Bill Owens drew harsh criticism from his own party when he departed in 2006, after The Denver Post's Mark Couch reported that the Republican handed out generous bonuses to reward cabinet members for remaining on the job.
So readers should forgive your Lookout Colorado correspondent for seeking out this low-hanging fruit.
But guess what? Outgoing Gov. Bill Ritter didn't do it.
A records request shows that the Democrat's cabinet members didn't get any extras for all of 2010, nor for January and February of 2011, when you might expect post-inaugural goodies to appear on the books.
