The key to containing spread of a virus like Ebola, public health experts tell us, is tracking down every person with whom an infected person had direct contact. Such contact tracing includes people in their family who might have shared hugs or kisses, or health care workers who handled any specimens.
Who is currently being traced in this way? Here’s what we know.
How many people are being monitored?
48 people who had direct contact with Thomas Eric Duncan
For now, officials at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) say that 48 people had direct contact with Thomas Eric Duncan before he was isolated on Sept. 28 and diagnosed on Sept. 30. CDC has not clarified where those people might have had contact with Duncan. Four members of his immediate family who were staying in the same apartment as Duncan since he arrived in the U.S. have been quarantined for 21 days, the incubation period for the Ebola virus. But it’s not clear whether the remaining 44 include public citizens in the same apartment building or whether it also includes others in the community.
76 health care workers who cared for Duncan
Between Sept. 28, when Duncan was put into isolation at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, and Oct. 8, when he died, 76 health care workers participated in his care, performing duties that potentially exposed them to his infectious body fluids. All are being monitored, according to the CDC. At the minimum, that involves having the health care workers take their own temperature twice daily, and report any fever above 100.4F or any other symptoms of Ebola, including nausea, headache, vomiting and diarrhea.
It’s not clear how many, if any, are being actively monitored, which involves public health officials performing the temperature checks twice daily and asking detailed questions about any other possible symptoms.
According to CDC director Tom Frieden, people who are part of contact tracing are advised not to use public transport. They are limited to so-called controlled movement, such as a personal car.
Amber Vinson, the second nurse to test positive, however, traveled by plane from Dallas to Cleveland on Oct. 10, two days after Duncan’s death. Vinson had apparently been intimately involved in Duncan’s care while he was alive, including drawing his blood and inserting catheters. Even if she did not have a fever before she boarded the plane, Frieden said, “because she was in a group of individuals known to have exposure to Ebola, she should not have traveled on a commercial airline.”
While in Cleveland, Vinson reported a temperature of 99.5F. That is below the CDC threshold of 100.4F for Ebola isolation, but because of her direct contact with Duncan’s body fluids, Vinson was told by CDC to return to Dallas, according to a CDC spokesperson. She did, on Oct. 13, on a commercial flight.
Frieden said on Oct. 15 that Vinson reported no symptoms of Ebola; Ebola patients can only spread their disease when they are symptomatic and through direct contact with their body fluids, including vomit, diarrhea or blood.
Why isn’t every contact of Duncan’s under quarantine?
Because Ebola only spreads through contact with body fluids when the patient is symptomatic, the risk of contracting Ebola through casual interactions is very low. Passengers on the plane that brought Duncan into the U.S., for example, are not at risk because he was not symptomatic during this trip.
Passengers on Vinson’s flight from Cleveland to Dallas, however, are being monitored out of an abundance of caution. Because she had a fever, the CDC notified Frontier Airlines, the carrier, that Vinson “may have been symptomatic earlier than initially suspected, including the possibility of possessing symptoms while on board the flight,” according to Reuters. Those passengers are now being monitored for Ebola symptoms.
Duncan’s family members are under quarantine because they were in direct contact with Duncan when he first became ill, and have a high chance of having touched his infectious body fluids.
Health care workers are also at high risk, since they handled Duncan’s body fluids as he became more and more symptomatic in the hospital. They are supposed to be protected from exposure by personal protective equipment, but Frieden acknowledged that the gear used by health workers in the Duncan’s early hospitalization was “variable” and that both Vinson and Nina Pham, the first nurse to test positive for Ebola, might have been infected during this time.

Article: In 1972, the Presbyterian Church of England (PCofE) united with the Congregational Church in England and Wales to form the United Reformed Church (URC). Among the congregations the PCofE brought to the URC were Tunley (Lancashire), Aston Tirrold (Oxfordshire) and John Knox Presbyterian Church, Stepney, London (now part of Stepney Meeting House URC) – these are among the sole survivors today of the English Presbyterian churches of the 17th century. The URC also has a presence in Scotland, mostly of former Congregationalist Churches. Two former Presbyterian congregations, St Columba's, Cambridge (founded in 1879), and St Columba's, Oxford (founded as a chaplaincy by the PCofE and the Church of Scotland in 1908 and as a congregation of the PCofE in 1929), continue as congregations of the URC and university chaplaincies of the Church of Scotland.

Jiddu Krishnamurti (;11 May 1895 - 17 February 1986) was a philosopher, speaker and writer. In his early life he was groomed to be the new World Teacher but later rejected this mantle and withdrew from the Theosophy organization behind it. His subject matter included psychological revolution, the nature of mind, meditation, inquiry, human relationships, and bringing about radical change in society. He constantly stressed the need for a revolution in the psyche of every human being and emphasised that such revolution cannot be brought about by any external entity, be it religious, political, or social.
In April 1909 Krishnamurti first met Charles Webster Leadbeater, who claimed clairvoyance. Leadbeater had noticed Krishnamurti on the Society's beach on the Adyar river, and was amazed by the "most wonderful aura he had ever seen, without a particle of selfishness in it." Ernest Wood, an adjutant of Leadbeaters at the time, who helped Krishnamurti with his homework, considered him to be "particularly dim-witted". Leadbeater was convinced that the boy would become a spiritual teacher and a great orator; the likely "vehicle for the Lord Maitreya" in Theosophical doctrine, an advanced spiritual entity periodically appearing on Earth as a World Teacher to guide the evolution of humankind. In her biography of Krishnamurti Pupul Jayakar quotes him speaking of that period in his life some 75 years later: "The boy had always said "I will do whatever you want". There was an element of subservience, obedience. The boy was vague, uncertain, woolly; he didn't seem to care what was happening. He was like a vessel with a large hole in it, whatever was put in, went through, nothing remained." Following his discovery by Leadbeater, Krishnamurti was nurtured by the Theosophical Society in Adyar. Leadbeater and a small number of trusted associates undertook the task of educating, protecting, and generally preparing Krishnamurti as the "vehicle" of the expected World Teacher. Krishnamurti (often later called Krishnaji) and his younger brother Nityananda (Nitya) were privately tutored at the Theosophical compound in Madras, and later exposed to a comparatively opulent life among a segment of European high society as they continued their education abroad. Despite his history of problems with schoolwork and concerns about his capacities and physical condition, the 14-year-old Krishnamurti was able to speak and write competently in English within six months. Lutyens says that later in life Krishnamurti came to view his "discovery" as a life-saving event. When he was asked in later life what he thought would have happened to him if he had not been 'discovered' by Leadbeater he would unhesitatingly reply "I would have died". During this time Krishnamurti had developed a strong bond with Annie Besant and came to view her as a surrogate mother. His father, who had initially assented to Besant's legal guardianship of Krishnamurti, was pushed into the background by the swirl of attention around his son. In 1912 he sued Besant to annul the guardianship agreement. After a protracted legal battle Besant took custody of Krishnamurti and Nitya. As a result of this separation from family and home Krishnamurti and his brother (whose relationship had always been very close) became more dependent on each other, and in the following years often travelled together. In 1911 the Theosophical Society established the Order of the Star in the East (OSE) to prepare the world for the expected appearance of the World Teacher. Krishnamurti was named as its head, with senior Theosophists assigned various other positions. Membership was open to anybody who accepted the doctrine of the Coming of the World Teacher. Controversy soon erupted, both within the Theosophical Society and outside it, in Hindu circles and the Indian press.

Kath was born to Raymond Elmer "Ray" (1912-2003) and Evelyn Meline Haugen Kath (1916-1982) on January 31, 1946, in Chicago, Illinois. He has an older brother, Rod Kath. He was raised in the Norwood Park neighborhood of Chicago.
Kath had a self-admitted history of drug abuse, including alcohol. Seraphine knew that Kath had a high tolerance for drugs, but later recalled Kath telling him, "I'm going to get things under control ... if I don't, this stuff is going to kill me." Chicago bandmates have indicated that he was also increasingly unhappy. However, Guercio has said that Kath was finishing writing a solo album before he died, and Pankow adamantly denies that Kath was suicidal. By 1978, Kath was regularly carrying guns around and enjoyed playing with them. Around 5 p.m. January 23, after a party at the home of roadie and band technician Don Johnson, in Woodland Hills, Los Angeles, California, Kath began to play with his guns. He spun his .38 revolver on his finger, put it to his temple, and pulled the trigger. The gun was not loaded. Johnson warned Kath several times to be careful. Kath then picked up a semi-automatic 9-mm pistol and, leaning back in a chair, said to Johnson, "Don't worry about it ... look, the clip is not even in it." To assuage Johnson's concerns, Kath showed Johnson the empty magazine. Kath then replaced the magazine in the gun, put the gun to his temple and pulled the trigger. Apparently unbeknown to Kath, the semi-automatic had a round in the chamber. He died instantly from the gunshot. Kath left a widow, Camelia Kath (born Camelia Emily Ortiz), whom he had married in 1974, and a 2-year-old daughter, Michelle Kath (now Michelle Kath Sinclair). After his death, his widow married and later divorced actor Kiefer Sutherland). Kath is interred near his parents, Ray and Evelyn Kath, in the Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery in Glendale, California, in the Gardens of Remembrance. The group's members were devastated over losing Kath and strongly considered disbanding, but were persuaded by Doc Severinsen, musical director of the Tonight Show band, that they should continue. Kath's position as guitarist in Chicago was subsequently filled by Donnie Dacus, then Chris Pinnick, Dawayne Bailey, and Keith Howland. At Chicago concerts, original members Lee Loughnane (trumpet) and Robert Lamm (keyboards) have, on occasion, performed lead vocals originally sung by Terry Kath.

Write an article based on this "Make a homemade anti-fungal spread. Use a vinegar bath. Use lemon juice to fight discoloration. Try whitening toothpaste. Try buffing your nails lightly for a temporary solution."
Article: | Pour 2 ½ tbsp. baking soda into a small bowl and add 1 tbsp. hydrogen peroxide. Mix well then use a cotton ball to dip into your mixture. Apply to your toenails. Let it set for 5 minutes, then rinse well. Repeat daily. You can also use baking soda or hydrogen peroxide separately if you only have one. Simply mix it in with a small bowl of warm water and then apply. Mix 3 parts water with 1 part vinegar in a large bowl. Soak your feet in the bath for 4-5 minutes once a day to lower the pH in your toes and fight fungus. Soaking your nails in lemon juice will get rid of yellow stains. Soak your nails for 10-15 minutes each day until you are happy with the results. In order to get rid of immediate nail stains, like pink nails from red nail polish, try scrubbing a whitening toothpaste on your nails using a nail brush. This, however, is not for long-term stains. The top layer of your nails is where the yellow stains are. By buffing your nails with a light sandpaper you will get rid of the top layers, removing some of the stains. However, buffing your nails is not recommended because it can lead to weaker nails. If you choose to buff your nails, try using a clear strengthening polish after. | 9 | Flan2021 | gem/wiki_lingua_english_en:1.1.0 | zs_opt |

Congresswoman Gwen Moore is bringing 400 yellow pencils – unsharpened 0 to Tuesday night's State of the Union address, hoping to spark a bipartisan show of support for free speech in the wake of the the January 7 Islamist massacre of journalists in Paris. The shooting attack by jihadis – angered by cartoon depictions of the Muslim prophet Muhammad – killed 11 and left 11 more injured. Moore 's spokesman said Tuesday that Congress has an opportunity to condemn it with one voice and defend the concept of free speech. The Wisconsin Democrat 'will hold up a yellow pencil' at selected points during Presdient Barack Obama's annual speech 'to honor those who lost their lives in the pursuit of open ideas and free expression,' Eric Harris told DailyMail.com. And she wants everyone gathered in the House chamber to join her. Scroll down for video. Wisconsin Democratic Rep. Gwen Moore (center) hopes to spark a statement in defense of Charlie Hebdo on Tuesday night during President Barack Obama's State of the union Address. YELLOW PENCIL: The writing implement has become a symbol of free expression across Europe, and Moore will bring 400 of them to the House cahmber on Tuesday. 'I hope it's hundreds. We've invited all our Republican colleagues,' Harris added in a phone interview. 'The congresswoman will have pencils with her on the floor. We're bringing 400.' There are 534 members of Congress, including the 100 senators who will shoehorn themselves into the crowded hall. (One House seat remains vacant after former New York Rep. Michael Grimm's resignation.) Members of the Supreme Court and most of the president's Cabinet secretaries will also attend, along with Vice President Joe Biden, first lady Michelle Obama and selected guests. The Moore aide said at 4:00 that nearly three dozen members of Congress had confirmed they would be participating. Harris explained that French citizens have turned ordinary pencils into protest implements in the weeks since the writers of the Charlie Hebdo satire magazine lost their lives. Holding a pencil above ones head is now an internationally recognized disapproval of censorship. From Paris to Barcelona to London, pencils lifted skyward have carried a message of support for what Charlie Hebdo stands for – an irreverent and unapologetic mocking tone toward anyone and anything of importance. 'We'd like to do it every time the president refers to the victims, and every time he refers to freedom of speech or expression,' he said. Obama is expected to mention the Paris attacks at least once Tuesday night. Separately, the House of Representatives passed a resolution on Tuesday officially condemning the Charlie Hebdo attack and a separate deadly act of terror at a Paris kosher supermarket. 'Seventeen innocents lost their lives, and this resolution carries our condolences to their loved ones,' House Speaker John Boehner said in a statement. 'With this condemnation also comes a commitment to stand with France and our allies in confronting the grave threat radical Islam poses to our security and way of life,' he said. WHERE WAS POTUS? A January 11 rally of millions in Paris went off without President Barack Obama, who was reportedly watching football; he will likely try to express his solidarity in his State of the Union address. ERASERS: Muslims in Pakistan and elsewhere have rallied to condemn the Paris magazine for showing cartoons oMuhammad. EUROPEAN UNION: As far away as the UK and Turkey – this woman demonstrated in Ankara – people have held pencils aloft to signify the defense of free expression in the face of religious extremism. Moore's spokesman was more circumspect about seeing her pencil protest as a statement about religion. 'The gesture is not meant to insult Muslims nor is it an attack on Islam,' Harris insisted in a followup email. He framed his boss's concerns in the same language Obama uses – condemning 'the threat of violent extremism' – without touching the liberal third-rail of casting suspicion on Islam itself. The idea for a pencil protest began as a Democrats-only stunt, passed in secret from press secretary to press secretary. Then an email from Harris to his colleagues was leaked to National Journal. Suddenly it was a bipartisan idea, open to both sides of the aisle. 'This is something we just planned to do privately, and then it would just be a surprise during the State of the Union,' Harris told DailyMail.com. 'But because my email was leaked – that's just how it goes.' 'I should have just put "confidential" on top of it,' he joked, 'and made sure it leaked in about ten seconds.'

Pencils won't be sharpened, out of security concerns, as President Barack Obama addresses a joint session of Congress.

First choice: Italian FA wish to speak with Mancini about succeeding Prandelli, who resigned on Tuesday. Unhappy: Mancini did not enjoy himself during his nine months as manager of Galatasaray. Mancini is out of work following his departure from Galatasaray earlier this summer. And the Italian FA, at the very least, want to discuss the prospect of becoming the country's next head coach with Mancini.

did something Wednesday night that it hadn’t done in a while: It dropped a new iPod ad.
The spot above, called “Bounce” features the track “Yeah Yeah” by Willie Moon, a singer from New Zealand. Though Apple just broke the ad on TV Wednesday night and loaded the video to its official YouTube Channel, versions of the ad had leaked last month.
The ad from TBWA\Media Arts Lab, coincides with the release of the seventh-generation iPod Nano and the fifth-generation iPod Touch on Wednesday. Overshadowed in recent years by the iPhone and the iPad, Apple still gives ad support to the iPod from time to time. Though Apple ran an iTunes-focused campaign when it got rights to the Beatles catalog in 2010, the last time the company ran an iPod ad was in 2008. That ad featured Coldplay’s “Viva La Vida.”

Article: The complete technical disclosure of the Columbia LP by Peter C. Goldmark, Rene' Snepvangers and William S. Bachman in 1949 made it possible for a great variety of record companies to get into the business of making long playing records. The business grew quickly and interest spread in high fidelity sound and the do-it-yourself market for pickups, turntables, amplifier kits, loudspeaker enclosure plans, and AM/FM radio tuners. The LP record for longer works, 45 rpm for pop music, and FM radio became high fidelity program sources in demand. Radio listeners heard recordings broadcast and this in turn generated more record sales. The industry flourished.

Article: Calculating that no further Russian advance was likely until 1758, Frederick moved the bulk of his eastern forces to Pomerania under the command of Marshal Lehwaldt where they were to repel the Swedish invasion. In short order, the Prussian army drove the Swedes back, occupied most of Swedish Pomerania, and blockaded its capital Stralsund. George II of Great Britain, on the advice of his British ministers, revoked the Convention of Klosterzeven, and Hanover reentered the war. Over the winter the new commander of the Hanoverian forces, Duke Ferdinand of Brunswick, regrouped his army and launched a series of offensives that drove the French back across the River Rhine. The British had suffered further defeats in North America, particularly at Fort William Henry. At home, however, stability had been established. Since 1756, successive governments led by Newcastle and Pitt had fallen. In August 1757, the two men agreed to a political partnership and formed a coalition government that gave new, firmer direction to the war effort. The new strategy emphasised both Newcastle's commitment to British involvement on the Continent, particularly in defence of Germany, and William Pitt's determination to use naval power to seize French colonies around the globe. This "dual strategy" would dominate British policy for the next five years.

World Cup Live: Slovakia vs. Italy
Slovakia bounced Italy out of the 2010 World Cup, by a 3-2 score, at Ellis Park in Johannesburg, the biggest shock of the tournament thus far. The Italians are the defending champions, and while it’s difficult to repeat (only Italy in 1934 and 1938 and Brazil in 1958 and 1962 have done so), it’s another thing to go out in the first round. It was a pulsating match, especially the second half. For Slovakia, which led 1-0 at halftime, Robert Vittek scored his second goal in the 73rd minute. The teams then traded goals in the 81st (Antonio DiNatale), 89th (Kamil Kopunek) and 92nd (Fabio Quagliarella). Paraguay and Slovakia qualify from Group F, and will meet their counterparts from Group G in the Round of 16. You can follow the Group E games, Denmark-Japan and Cameroon-Netherlands, here, at 2:30 p.m. Eastern time.
For a recap of the action as it unfolded, read on below.
Wow. Wow. It’s a bit hard to believe that Italy — the defending champion — has been sent out of the tournament by Slovakia, a first-time participant. But if you put tradition, expectation and your own high regard for Italian soccer out of your mind, and look strictly at the way the Italians played over these three games, it’s no surprise at all.
Clearly, they missed Pirlo. But a team of their stature should be able to overcome the loss of one player, even a star like Pirlo. Ask Ghana, who have qualified for the next round without Michael Essien, or Germany, who did it without Michael Ballack. The Italians did finally score a few goals (unlike the French, the other finalists from 2006, who scored only one in three games) — but their defending was shoddy; their midfield sluggish and unimaginative, and their forwards were below par. I leave it to others to analyze why that is, but there you have it.
Slovakia’s reward? It will most likely be the Netherlands — a tournament favorite. Paraguay, who finished at the top of the group, will play the second-place finisher in Holland’s group.
That’s it from me. Glad I had such an entertaining match, even if I now need to sit in a dark room for a bit to recover. And thanks for your e-mails. Keep joining us as this crazy tournament rolls on!
The Slovaks are all in a huddle, bouncing up and down, shaking fists, pumping their arms up and down, bellowing.
Italy are quickly departing down the tunnel.
What a great game by Slovakia!! And they really had to hang on at the end, as Italy strove to live up to its traditions. Quagliarella is crying his eyes out.
Pepe had a last second chance near the far post but a defender’s toe kept him from making contact. Corner Italy.
The Italians are livid, thinking Stoch is time-wasting. But Webb will add time on.
A punched clearance, then another shot but this one Mucha gathers safely.
The Italians are still breathing. Can they do more?
Top corner floater from Quagliarella, from about 20 yards — a beautiful ship beyond Mucha’s fingertips.
It was his first touch of the ball, I think.
Kopunek from a throw, nips in and lobs it over Marchetti for Slovakia’s third!!!
Iaquinta and Skrtl tangel, and then Iaquinta elbows Mucha but the Slovaks clear.
Replay shows Quagliarella was a half-step too far.
Kopunek on for Strba, he of the wounded knee.
This time Skrtl’s clearance attempt fell straight into DiNatale’s feet on the left side of the area; he slotted it across, behind a defender, and Quagliarella popped in there to push the ball home, but was ruled offside.
Are the Italians going to pull off another last-gasp escape? They’re putting on pressure now; the Slovakians are getting a bit scattered in front of their keeper. Are they rattled?
Quagliarella was trying to wrench the ball away from Mucha, then went down, as if Mucha struck him. Whatever happened, Howard Webb saw it as a yellow for Mucha. (A post-game amendment here: Quagliarella received a yellow, too.)
An unusually quick break for Italy, and Quagliarella’s shot from about 15 yards is parried by Mucha, into the path of DiNatale on the left – he slots it home.
Quagliarella gives to DiNatale — open net — he scores!
Marcello Lippi actually looks as if he might cry.
While we moan and groan about Italy, we should also give credit to Slovakia. They’ve been aggressive and positive today, and Weiss should get credit for benching Weiss (his son) and Sestak, because Stoch and Kucka have played very well. Meanwhile, the Italian bench looks understandably glum.
According to Ian Darke, on ESPN, the defending champs who have been sent home after the first round are: Italy in 1950, Brazil in 1966 and France in 2002.
Pepe, beaten by Stoch, takes him down; gets a yellow.
Hamsik took a corner from the right — it popped high in the air, then came back to Hamsik on the right. He cradled it a millisecond and then sent the ball low toward goal — where Vittek stepped in front of Chiellini and re-directed the ball inside the near post.
The replay shows the shot banged off Skrtl’s knee, at a moment that the ball was just about to break the plane of the goalmouth. Italians may want to argue it broke the plane, but I don’t think they can say it went all the way over the line.
Poor Pirlo. He’s in the middle of the field, looks ahead, sees absolutely no movement, finally sends a long ball cross field to the right back.
Hamsik drives a beautiful through ball diagonally to Stoch on the left — with Italy pushing forward, it gives the Slovaks a two-on-two. But Stoch’s finish, from about 20 yards, was high and a bit wide.
Italian forwards are hopeless, or luckless, or both. In the luckless category, that was Quagliarella whose shot was blocked by Skrtl.
Zabavnik gets back in time to block Pepe –the ensuing corner goes into the box – point blank SHOT CLEARED OFF THE LINE, by Skrtl!
Kucka with a header, but it corkscrews wide.
Some deft short passes — finally — set up DiNatale on the edge of the box, but Mucha saves.
Hamsik clatters into Pirlo, knocking him down. No harm done.
Quagliarella gets a cross in from the left, but straight to the keeper.
More pressure — Chiellini does well to clear the danger.
Maggio fouls Hamsik about 25 yards out, to the left. Stoch’s free kick into the area is too low, and cleared.
Frankly, the absence of Pirlo hasn’t been the only problem here. He’s one midfielder — the others have been pretty lame today. If Pirlo can spark this group of half-hearted-looking Azzurri, he’s really a genius.
Last resort for Italy? Andrea Pirlo warming up on the sideline.
Hamsik “fouls” Cannavaro, But no card. I missed one earlier, by the way, given to right back Pekarik.
Mucha goes to play the ball in the corner, DeNatale shoulders him and he goes down as if shot. Webb looks impatient, but gices no card.
Header by Quagliarella but not enough on it.
Zambrotta, reliable wherever he goes, moves to the left because Maggio is a right back (from Napoli).
Fabio Quagliarello on for Gattuso and Christian Maggio on for Criscito. Zambrotta has moved to left back.
Good catch, Kristina (my error in the yellow card counter), and touche to John NY, for calling me on my own ethnic stereotyping in the same yellow card list.
And Austin, I agree, France will come back strong in 2014, with Laurent Blanc in charge — but we’re talking about THIS World Cup, and they may or may not be the leading candidates as most disappointing team. What do others think?
Italy continues its unimpressive run into a third match. They said a lot between matches about how ready they were to wake up and take charge of their fate, but thus far, they’ve looked bereft of ideas. Credit Slovakia, too, for being well-organized and keeping the pressure on. Back with more in a few minutes.
Kucka on the volley!! It grazes the side netting on the right.
Chiellini fouled Vittek, about 25 yards out — but Durica’s free kick hits the wall.
There will be 3 minutes.
The substitute is up on the sideline, but Strba furiously shakes them all off. He’s limping, but staying on the field,
In fairness, Gattuso’s foul didn’t look especially reckless. But his studs did bad damage — not only to Strba’s knee, but to Slovakia’s chances. Strba had been playing really well.
Strba down at the halfway line looking in severe pain — this is not play-acting. EEEW, he has a nasty, fat gash across the top of his knee. It was Gattuso who caught him.
Skrtl can only head over the bar — corner for Italy, then a second corner, but no luck.
Cannavaro and Vittek collide again, but this time Cannavaro’s ankle takes a crunch and Vittek gets the card.
Well, I guess Montolivo just thought “Why not?” because that shot was hopeless.
As my colleague Jeff Z. Klein would be quick to tell you, the most popular sport in Slovakia is hockey. He might even give you a pun about the Italians being the ones slip-sliding around today, but I won’t.
Strba decides to test the back-up goalie from long range — it’s a good strike, but tipped wide.
Cannavaro comes charging out to body-block Kucka, and Howard Webb is quick with a yellow card.
The pearly-haired Italian actually looks quite worried, hands on hips.
Stoch — a bench player for Chelsea, who is 5 foot 5 and looks uncannily like a John Terry Mini Me — puts in a good free kick, but Italy clears.
DeRossi gave it away to Kucka — and he quickly pounced forward and slid the ball straight ahead to Vittek on the edge of the area, who himself darted between DeRossi and Criscito and shot
Italy giveaway leads to a Slovak goal!! Vittek!!
Kucka plows into midfield and Gattuso knocks him over. But the free kick amounts to nothing. Then the ball pings back to Martin Skrtl, the rangy center back, who waltzes unchallenged to the 18-yard box before being stripped.
Miroslav Stoch tries to body Criscito off the ball on the right flank — but it goes out of bounds.
Well, Pepe put a looping ball into the box, hoping to reach Iaquinta, but the big goalkeeper caught it instead. Mucha, by the way, is headed to Everton next season to be Tim Howard’s backup (presumably).
Another foul in the middle of the field, this time by Zabavnik on Pepe. Montolivo takes a short free kick.
Gattuso fouled by Strba — for the second time, and Gattuso looks very annoyed.
Hamsik breaks – fast – down the left flank, centers to Vitek but Marchetti steps in front of him to gather it up.
Miroslav Stoch, in his first start of the Cup, sends a long free kick in — Marchetti jumps out alertly to push it away.
Also at that free kick, John Harkes tells us the Italians start slowly because they’re arrogant. Hmmm.
Di Natale takes it, swinging it well into the box, but Iaquinta fouls a defender and the whistle ends play.
Hamsik — tattooed, spiky-haired, buck-toothed — looks like a cross between Edward Scissorhands and Robin Van Persie. He knows these opponents well; he plays for Napoli.
Hamsik alone in front of keeper and scuffs it!
DiNatale — leading scorer in Serie A this past season — takes the first shot, off a pass from Iaquinta. Way wide.
Of course, if Italy were to lose or not get through today, THAT would surely be the biggest disappointment of the tournament thus far. The last time the Italians failed to get out of the first round was 1974.
What else, for the Azzurri?
Marek Hamsik, the captain and undeniably talented playmaker for the Slovaks, has had a disappointing tournament so far. Indeed, Slovakia as a whole hasn’t played as well as expected. Are they, in fact, the most disappointing team at the 2010 World Cup? Who is?
This tournament is Slovakia’s first ever, since becoming a independent country. The coach, Vladimir Weiss, played for Czechoslovakia in 1990 (that was the team that beat the USA 5-1).
Again, it’s only my ears, but this one is so peppy and stirring — right up there with La Marseillaise. These gents are also all singing away. As is a fan clad as a centurion!
Giant Ellis Park doesn’t have the sun/shade problem some stadiums have seen. To a man, the Slovakians are singing their anthem — to my ears, it’s a bit dirge-like.
Marcello Lippi has put Gattuso into the starting lineup, as forecast, replacing Claudio Marchisio, and has chosen Antonio DiNatale in place of Alberto Gilardino up front. It’s worth remembering, too, that Gigi Buffon, the No. 1 keeper, is out with a back injury and Federico Marchetti will play in goal.
Vladimir Weiss has made four changes – including benching his son, Vladimir Jr. He has also dropped Stanislav Sestak, Jan Kozak and Kornel Salata. Jan Durica returns in defense, along with Juraj Kucka, Miroslav Stoch and the forward Erik Jenisek.
For Slovakia, midfielder Zdenko Strba and fullback Jan Durica each have a yellow. Italy’s starters, remarkably, have none, but Mauro Camoranesi, who is on the bench, has one.
Slovakia: Jan Mucha; Peter Pekarik, Martin Skrtel, Jan Durica, Radoslav Zabavnik, Zdeno Strba, Miroslav Stoch, Marek Hamsik, Robert Vittek, Juraj Kucka, Erik Jendrisek.
Italy: Federico Marchetti; Gianluca Zambrotta, Fabio Cannavaro, Giorgio Chiellini, Domenico Criscito, Riccardo Montolivo, Daniele De Rossi, Gennaro Gattuso, Vincenzo Iaquinta, Simone Pepe, Antonio Di Natale.

Beth Cleasby, 26, from Oxford had at least 50 one night stands because she was drunk. Every mother hopes for, yet in equal measure dreads, the day her eldest child leaves home to start university. As Kym-Marie Cleasby hugged 20-year-old Bethany goodbye on the doorstep of her new student digs in Southampton, she desperately tried to mask her tears with a smile. These exciting new beginnings would mark the next chapter in her daughter’s life — it was her duty as a mother to let go. Back home, in their empty nest in Witney, near Oxford, she and her husband Rodney, 61, a graphic designer, were consoled by the fact that Bethany’s photography course would launch her into a rewarding career. But what Kym-Marie, 51, a director of an international charity, could not have anticipated was that Bethany’s arrival at university would precipitate her downward spiral into a dangerous world of alcohol dependency, leaving her deep in debt and vulnerable to sexual predators. While stories of students drinking to excess are nothing new, Bethany’s tale will horrify any mother of daughters. And never more so than at this time of year, as drink-fuelled Freshers’ Weeks across Britain seduce a new cohort of wide-eyed students with a seemingly endless supply of cheap alcohol. before her first term at Southampton Solent University was out, Bethany had developed the beginnings of such a serious drink problem that she swapped lectures for sessions at Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), before dropping out of university altogether. ‘It sickens me to admit that I must have had at least 50 one-night stands — and they’re the ones that I am aware of — all because I was too drunk to care,’ she says. Too drunk to bother with contraception, Bethany realises she was very lucky not to get pregnant, or contract a sexually transmitted infection. And, having repeatedly put herself in vulnerable positions, she is also aware she’s lucky to be alive. Now 26, Bethany says her problems began when, as a shy student, she took advantage of the cheap booze laid on to lubricate those awkward early social interactions. When, two months into her university career, Bethany called home in tears, her parents were horrified. ‘She had six weeks of term to go, but had already blown her entire student maintenance loan — around £1,600 — and was a further £1,000 overdrawn,’ Kym-Marie says. ‘it emerged that all of it had gone on drink.’ At her parents’ insistence, Bethany caught a train home within the hour. later that evening, the full extent of her drinking became clear. ‘We worked out she was drinking around 240 units a week,’ says Kym-Marie. ‘more than 15 times the recommended limit.’ Bethany's mother Kym-Marie, 51, had to step in to help her daughter who found there was no support at university. When she went back to university after Christmas 2008, her parents took control of her finances, opening a bank account in Kym-Marie’s name and transferring £30 a week for food. But, unbeknown to them, Bethany spent the money on alcohol. She was also so adept at getting others to buy drinks for her that controlling her money made little difference. ‘Some clubs sold pints for 50p, and my friends and I could easily share a litre of vodka before going out,’ she says. ‘I regularly had blackouts, where I could barely remember arriving at a club let alone leaving it. Persia's alcohol habit had got so bad that she would regularly black out on a night out with friends. ‘Once, apparently, I even went around a late-night kebab shop asking men to go home with me. Fortunately, one guy, a total stranger, realised the state I was in and took me to my shared house.’ For Kym-Marie, it was a terrifying time. Though Bethany kept many of the most shameful incidents to herself, she would often phone home, full of self-loathing and distraught about her drinking. With her parents’ encouragement, she began attending AA meetings, but felt out of place in the group of mainly men, meeting secretly in dark church halls. She longed to find others in a similar situation to herself: young women, new to alcohol and struggling to cope. Emily Robinson, director of campaigns at Alcohol Concern, says: ‘It’s not easy for young people to work out how to deal with alcohol. They’re bombarded with alcohol advertising, which tells them drinking is a normal thing to do, and it’s often available at unscrupulously low prices. One in six children report being given alcohol by their parents aged just 12 or 13. ‘Young people also tend to overestimate how much their peers drink, which can cause a feeling that “everyone is doing it”.’ Indeed, research conducted by Drinkaware and the National Union of Students claims many 18 to 24-year-olds think it is socially unacceptable not to drink alcohol, and one in five young adults say peer pressure influences them to drink more than they might wish. Further evidence suggests that those who drink heavily in their teens and early 20s are up to twice as likely as light drinkers to still be binge-drinking 25 years later. Persia Lawson, 28, is certain it was her arrival at Exeter University ten years ago, to study English literature, that sparked her lack of boundaries around alcohol. ‘Nothing prepared me for the student alcohol culture,’ she says. ‘Aged 18, I’d barely drunk before and, suddenly, was seeing boozed-up girls getting naked in pubs and boys urinating into shoes in the middle of the afternoon. The student regularly drank 30 units a night in an effort to be the life and soul of the party. ‘Everyone was drinking. If you didn’t join in, you got left behind. I wasn’t drinking to escape problems — I didn’t have any — it was just about trying to fit in.’ Keen to be the ‘life and soul’, Persia was soon drinking up to 10 units a night, four days a week. ‘As my tolerance grew, I would down a bottle of wine before going out. There were ambulances outside clubs before anyone arrived: they knew the state we’d get into.’ After three years at university, Persia’s drinking was getting progressively worse. ‘I used to black out a lot, and ended up stranded at parties in the middle of nowhere, with no money to get home. I’d wake up from one-night stands, not knowing where I was or who with. In two months, I put on 2 st because of the alcohol.’ Somehow, Persia’s grades didn’t slip. After graduating, she enrolled on a drama course. ‘By then, I was so used to drinking, I thought it was normal to turn up to 8am classes still drunk. It was almost a badge of honour.’ But, when she began experiencing stomach cramps, panic attacks and depression a year after graduating, she knew that she needed help. Persia says her tolerance of alcohol increased. ‘I joined a 12-step addiction recovery programme and went to therapy and started looking at the reasons I was drinking so much in the first place - because I didn't value and respect myself. 'I started to drink less, do exercise and eat more healthily, which meant that I no longer needed to turn to booze to escape from my problems and lack of self-worth.' Now, Persia jointly runs a support group for young women called Addictive Daughter. It's aimed at young women who struggle with addictive behaviours, inspiring them to make healthier lifestyle choices. She has now learned to ‘drink like a grown-up, not a student', and is much happier as a result. Last year, concerned headteachers wrote to universities to warn them they are failing in their duty of care to students by ignoring the binge-drinking culture amongst young people studying away from home for the first time. Emily Robinson says the blame cannot be laid solely with universities: ‘If we’re to change the student drinking culture, we need bars and retailers to act responsibly, and this means not trying to hook them in with irresponsible price promotions. ‘We need the Government to act and introduce a minimum unit price, which would cover student bars and help prevent students bulk-buying cheap alcohol to “pre-load” at home before going out.’ Kym-Marie believes the combination of cheap alcohol and student loans can prove lethal, when combined with a first taste of independence. Although she didn’t finish her course, with family support, Bethany stopped drinking, of her own volition, in June 2011. Horrified by the lack of age-appropriate support, Kym-Marie has now left her job to set up a charity with Bethany to plug that gap. Wash My Pink Jumper (a code phrase Bethany would use on the phone to her mum while at university to show she needed help, without losing face in front of her friends) offers a helpline and weekly meetings for young women. ‘Drinking is not always black and white. It is not always about being an alcoholic or not,’ Kym-Marie says. ‘We support young women, and parents who are worried about them. I don’t want any mother to feel how I felt.’ For Bethany, the charity has been a lifeline: ‘To know I got through that awful time and can help others do the same gives me purpose. I feel horrified at what I did, what I put everyone through. ‘I was lucky to have such a strong, supportive family — in many ways, the charity aims to replicate that for other girls who are not so fortunate.’ Visit washmypinkjumper.com, addictivedaughter.com, or actiononaddiction.org.uk.

Background: Sam Benjamin Harris (born April 9, 1967) is an American author, philosopher, neuroscientist, blogger, and podcast host. He is a critic of religion and proponent of the liberty to criticize religion. He is concerned with matters that touch on spirituality, morality, neuroscience, free will, and terrorism. He is described as one of the "Four Horsemen of atheism", with Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens and Daniel Dennett.
Context: Harris was born on April 9, 1967 in Los Angeles, the son of actor Berkeley Harris and TV producer Susan Harris (nee Spivak), who created The Golden Girls. His father came from a Quaker background and his mother is a secular Jew. He was raised by his mother following his parents' divorce when he was aged two. Harris has stated that his upbringing was entirely secular, and his parents rarely discussed religion, though it was always a subject that interested him. Fellow critic of religion Christopher Hitchens once referred to Harris as a "Jewish warrior against theocracy and bigotry of all stripes". While a student at Stanford University, Harris experimented with MDMA, and has written and spoken about the insights he experienced under its influence. Though his original major was in English, he became interested in philosophical questions while at Stanford University after an experience with the psychedelic drug MDMA. The experience led him to be interested in the idea that he might be able to achieve spiritual insights without the use of drugs. Leaving Stanford in his second year, a quarter after his psychedelic experience, he went to India and Nepal, where he studied meditation with Buddhist and Hindu religious teachers, including Dilgo Khyentse. Eleven years later, in 1997, he returned to Stanford, completing a B.A. degree in philosophy in 2000. Harris began writing his first book, The End of Faith, immediately after the September 11 attacks. He received a Ph.D. degree in cognitive neuroscience in 2009 from the University of California, Los Angeles, using functional magnetic resonance imaging to conduct research into the neural basis of belief, disbelief, and uncertainty. His thesis was titled "The moral landscape: How science could determine human values", and his advisor was Mark S. Cohen.

Summarize this article:
The two have been at loggerheads over UKIP's future direction and strategy.
Mr Banks has called for the Clacton MP and a "Tory cabal" to be expelled - with ex-leader Nigel Farage also saying it was time for Mr Carswell "to go".
Mr Carswell, who defected from the Tories to UKIP in 2014 and won the Essex seat at the 2015 election, said Mr Banks's plans were "news to him".
The BBC understands party leader Paul Nuttall has asked his chairman Paul Oakden to meet Mr Carswell on Tuesday to "discuss the situation" amid growing questions about his future in the party.
Mr Carswell and Mr Banks have been engaged in a long-running feud. The latest development comes amid claims that Mr Carswell resisted attempts by senior UKIP figures to secure a knighthood for former leader Nigel Farage.
The Daily Telegraph reported that in an email the MP suggested Mr Farage should settle instead for an OBE for "services to headline writers".
On Monday, the MP, who has denied trying to block a knighthood for Mr Farage, alluded to the row when he tweeted "knight night".
Following UKIP leader Paul Nuttall's failure to win the Stoke-on-Trent Central by-election last week, Mr Banks has said the party is at a "crossroads" and has offered to become party chairman in order to bring about a "total rebrand".
He has said Mr Farage, who stepped down last year and has since spent much of his time in the United States, should be "re-engaged".
Mr Banks has described Mr Carswell, whose relationship with Mr Farage is also strained, as a "terrible individual who has done his best to destroy UKIP".
Mr Banks' office said he intended to stand in Clacton, the Essex seat which Mr Carswell won with a 3,437 majority in 2015. It is not clear whether he will seek the UKIP nomination himself or will stand as an independent.
Mr Farage has claimed the party's only MP has been "totally disconnected" from UKIP since February 2015 and it was time for him to sever his links entirely.
"From the date of the result of the general election, he has actively been working against UKIP," Mr Farage wrote about Mr Carswell in the Daily Telegraph.
"I think there is little future for UKIP with him staying inside this party. The time for him to go is now," he added.
Mr Farage told the BBC: "If Paul [Nuttall] is constantly contradicted and dragged in the wrong direction by our one MP, that's not where he should be."
MEP Bill Etheridge has also said Mr Carswell should lose the party whip as he was "not compatible with what UKIP is trying to achieve". He told Radio 5 live that Mr Carswell should "look elsewhere" for his political future.
He told Radio 4's World at One the situation was "not a party at war it is one man... who has gone out of his way to subvert the party's leadership".
"I'm not suggesting that Douglas isn't a good MP he just doesn't have the UKIP principles at heart," Mr Etheridge said.
But UKIP Welsh Assembly member Mark Reckless said Mr Carswell should stay, saying "we have got to learn from him" as he won a Parliamentary election.
Mr Carswell, who has urged the party to project a more positive image and tone down its rhetoric on immigration, has warmer relations with Mr Nuttall and several of his key advisers.
Current UKIP chairman, Paul Oakden, said after the Stoke result that it might be years before his party can pick up another seat via a by-election.
Mr Banks criticised Mr Nuttall's tactics in the Stoke campaign, saying he wrongly adopted a "red UKIP" strategy, copying Labour policies on the NHS.
The businessman has said UKIP needs to become more professional if it is to make further headway, saying that as chairman he would oversee a new membership drive, and install a new team of "trained professional agents" to focus on target seats.
Unless this happened, he has suggested he could turn his back on the party.

In the mid-17th century, nuns from other monasteries in the Ukrainian and Belarusian lands were transferred to Novodevichy Convent, the first of whom was named Yelena Dyevochkina. In 1721, some of the aged nuns, who renounced the Old Believers movement, were given shelter. In 1724, the convent also housed a military hospital for the soldiers and officers of the Imperial Russian Army and an orphanage for female foundlings. By 1763, the convent housed 84 nuns, 35 lay sisters, and 78 sick patients and servants. Each year, the state provided the Novodevichy Convent with 1,500 rubles, 1,300 quarters of bread, and 680 rubles and 480 quarters of bread for more than 250 abandoned children. In 1812, Napoleon's army made an attempt to blow up the convent, but the nuns managed to save the cloister from destruction. In Tolstoy's War and Peace, Pierre was to be executed under the convent walls. In another novel of his, Anna Karenina, Konstantin Lyovin meets his future wife Kitty ice-skating near the monastery walls. Indeed, the Maiden's Field was the most popular skating-rink in 19th-century Moscow. Tolstoy himself enjoyed skating here when he lived nearby, in the district of Khamovniki. In 1871, the Filatyev brothers donated money for a shelter-school for the orphans of "ignoble origins". Also, the convent housed two almshouses for nuns and lay sisters. In early 1900s, the Cathedral was surveyed and restored by architect and preservationist Ivan Mashkov. By 1917, there were 51 nuns and 53 lay sisters residing in the Novodevichy Convent.

The aggressive policies of Lord Wellesley and the Marquis of Hastings led to the Company gaining control of all India (except for the Punjab and Sindh), and some part of the then kingdom of Nepal under the Sugauli Treaty. The Indian Princes had become vassals of the Company. But the expense of wars leading to the total control of India strained the Company's finances.

Tony Wang said the threats were "simply not acceptable" and pledged to do more to tackle abusive behaviour.
The apology came as Twitter updated its rules and confirmed it would introduce an in-tweet "report abuse" button on all platforms, including desktops.
Police are investigating eight allegations of abuse including bomb and rape threats made against women.
Two people have been arrested in relation to rape threats against Labour MP Stella Creasy and feminist campaigner Caroline Criado-Perez, who received the threats after a campaign to have Jane Austen on the new £10 note.
The Guardian's Hadley Freeman, the Independent's Grace Dent and Time magazine's Catherine Mayer all said they had received identical bomb threats on Wednesday.
The revelations sparked a backlash online, with a petition calling for Twitter to add a "report abuse" button to tweets attracting more than 125,000 signatures so far.
In a series of tweets, Twitter UK general manager Mr Wang said: "I personally apologize to the women who have experienced abuse on Twitter and for what they have gone through.
"The abuse they've received is simply not acceptable. It's not acceptable in the real world, and it's not acceptable on Twitter.
"There is more we can and will be doing to protect our users against abuse. That is our commitment."
Minister for Women and Equalities Jo Swinson said unchecked Twitter abuse had been a problem for a long time and she was "delighted" the company was apologising and taking action.
Ms Mayer, Europe editor of Time magazine, said she had yet to receive a personal apology from Twitter, despite contacting the website on Wednesday evening.
"I've been deeply amused by the phrase I've received a personal apology from Twitter," she said.
"If he [Mr Wang] would like to make an apology to me, he can direct message me if he doesn't want to do it publicly."
She added: "We're not being targeted because we're activists, we're being targeted because we're female."
Ms Creasy said she had received a "very welcome" apology in an email from Mr Wang - but it had taken a week.
She said stalking was taking a new form online and called for a mechanism similar to a panic button system to be put in place.
"We need to get round the table with the police and experts to identify the best way we can keep people safe online," she said.
In an earlier message posted on the Twitter UK blog, the company's senior director for trust and safety, Del Harvey, and Mr Wang, said the company had clarified its anti-harassment policy in light of feedback from customers.
They said: "It comes down to this: people deserve to feel safe on Twitter."
Twitter has clarified its guidance on abuse and spam - reiterating that users "may not engage in targeted abuse or harassment".
The "report abuse" button already available on the iOS Twitter app and mobile site will also be rolled out to the main website and Android app from September, Twitter said.
The bosses said in the blog that additional staff were being added to the teams that handle reports of abuse and the company was working with the UK Safer Internet Centre, which promotes the safe and responsible use of technology.
"We are committed to making Twitter a safe place for our users," they said, adding: "We're here, and we're listening to you."
Ms Criado-Perez, 29, welcomed Twitter's response but said the process for reporting abuse should be further simplified to take the onus off the victim.
She said: "Twitter's 'report abuse' button on the iPhone application goes through to the old reporting form. What we're looking for is an overhaul of the system which sits behind the button.
"Right now, all the emphasis is on the victim, often under intense pressure, to report rather than for Twitter to track down the perpetrator and stop them."

Sometimes it may be tempting to agree to do something in conversation that you don't really want to do. Social or peer pressure can leave you agreeing to do something in the moment, despite not actually wanting to keep the commitment. Don't succumb to peer pressure when asked to do something that you truly don't want to do. This will make it easier not to go back on your word later. Treat your commitments as a valuable asset that you don't give away lightly. If you find that you will not be able to fulfil a commitment that you've made, take responsibility for it. Making excuses can seem disingenuous, and it removes your responsibility to follow through. Instead, be honest and apologetic when you need to cancel plans. If you are uncomfortable explaining why you can't fulfil a promise, apologize sincerely and explain that you will try not to let it happen again. Disallowing yourself from using excuses will help motivate you to keep your promises and fulfill commitments. Do not say that you may be able to do something if you don't believe that you will for the sake of casual conversation. Instead, make solid commitments to do things when you intend to, and clearly explain that you cannot when you don't. Don't use vague wording like, “I'm not sure but I'll try,” when you don't want to do something. Be honest and clear about what you can and can't do. It's better to say you won't be able to do something now then to make excuses later. Force yourself to keep your word, even if you don't want to at times. Sometimes you may commit yourself to something at a moment when it seems like something you wouldn't mind doing, only to find yourself lacking the motivation or energy when the time comes to fulfill your commitment. Don't allow yourself to fall through because of a change of heart. Always keep your promises and fulfil your commitments to the utmost of your ability. Keeping your word even when you don't want to will help to teach you not to commit to things you will not want to do.

Steve-O was born in the Wimbledon, London. His mother, Donna Gay (nee Wauthier), was Canadian, and his father, Richard Glover, was American. His paternal grandfather was English and his maternal step-grandfather was voice-over announcer Wayne Howell. His family was based in Brazil for many years due to his father's presidency of the South American division of Pepsi-Cola.
While performing in the flea market circus, Steve-O began sending videos of himself to Big Brother magazine editor and future Jackass director Jeff Tremaine. After admitting that the only thing he was scared of was spiders, Tremaine recruited Steve-O for MTV's television series Jackass, which became an instant hit. MTV has subsequently released five movies based on the series: Jackass: The Movie (2002), Jackass Number Two (2006), direct-home release Jackass 2.5 (2007), Jackass 3D (2010), and Jackass 3.5. The installments Jackass: The Movie, Jackass Number Two, Jackass 3D, and Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa all became box office hits. In 2001, he released Don't Try This at Home on DVD, which contained material MTV censored. It went on to sell 140,000 copies. He toured promoting the DVD doing stunts, which was filmed and released as Don't Try This at Home Volume 2: The Tour. On July 31, 2002, Steve-O was arrested on obscenity and assault charges for stapling his scrotum to his leg, and for being a principal to a second-degree battery, during a performance at a nightclub in Houma, Louisiana on July 11, 2002. After several delays, in March 2003 Steve-O made a deal with Louisiana prosecutors placing him on supervised probation for one year, requiring him to make a charitable donation of $5,000 to a shelter for battered women and children and forbidding him from ever performing in Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana again. In 2003, Steve-O toured Europe with Bam Margera, a friend and co-star of Jackass. On May 22, 2003, Steve-O was arrested and jailed while in Sweden due to footage of himself swallowing a condom containing cannabis to get it past authorities while flying on a plane. He then regurgitated it live on stage, which he showed in his DVD Steve-O: Out on Bail (aka Don't Try This at Home - The Steve-O Video Vol. 3: Out on Bail) (2003). Steve-O reached a deal with the Swedish prosecutors and was released on May 27, 2003 after paying a 45,000 kronor (about 6,700 USD) fine. As part of the plea bargain Steve-O admitted to possessing one ecstasy tablet and five grams of marijuana, although he claimed he had no knowledge of where the ecstasy came from. The Swedish arrest was included in the third installment of the DVD series titled Steve-O: Out on Bail. Two months later on July 19, 2003, Steve-O was arrested on charges of disorderly conduct for urinating on potato chips in public during a Lollapalooza tour concert in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania. Steve-O claimed he was kicked off the tour by Lollapalooza producers because of the incident.

Sherri Shepherd and Jenny McCarthy are weathering changes at "The View" changes with a smile. The two daytime TV hosts are among those leaving ABC's long-running talk show, which is in the midst of some "abrupt" changes. Yet on Thursday, Shepherd and McCarthy showed their solidarity on Instagram. "Mr @DonnieWahlberg always takes care of his ladies @jennyannmccarthy & me!" Shepherd captioned a photo of herself with McCarthy and McCarthy's fiancé, Donnie Wahlberg, all three of them wearing grins. "To be continued," she remarked. Sources told CNN that producers and people close to Shepherd have been aware for months that she was ready to leave "The View." The sources added that Shepherd opted to keep the news quiet, not wanting to overshadow or disrupt Barbara Walters' departure in May. "The number 7 is God's number of completion & after 7 seasons my time at The View is now complete! ... Incredibly grateful to my second mom @BarbaraJWalters for pushing me beyond my comfort zone - it's been amazing doing it scared!" Shepherd tweeted Thursday. "Life should be lived. Run towards the things that scare you. Choose joy and trust God - everything else will work out as it should." "The View" has been in a state of flux for the past year, with longtime personalities Joy Behar and Elisabeth Hasselbeck taping their final shows in mid-2013. Jenny McCarthy was added to the "View" panel last July, but it appears that she, too, is leaving. "If Sherri goes... I go too. #sisters," McCarthy tweeted Thursday. "My View will be changing too. As will with many hard working folks. Thanks to everyone at the show for your dedication and an amazing year." While it's unclear what "The View" has in store, the network told CNN in a statement that the series "will be moving in an exciting new direction next season and ABC has made decisions to evolve the show creatively." CNN's Nischelle Turner and Topher Gauk-Roger contributed to this report.

Pierre Poilievre's shirt choice for promoting UCCB raises eyebrows
Employment Minister Pierre Poilievre's Monday morning press conference about the universal child-care benefit may have broken rules designed to keep government and partisan business separate, the second time he has been accused of blurring the line between the two in the past three months.
Poilievre launched a day of ministerial press conferences Monday to remind Canadian parents they're getting money back from the government — albeit money that will be taxed next spring.
But he raised questions about the appropriateness of his clothing choice when he sported the Conservative Party short-sleeved shirt to a Canadian government event.
Employment Minister Pierre Poilievre wore a Conservative Party T-shirt to a government event to promote the increased Universal Child Care Benefit. (CBC)
Canada has strict rules about using partisan logos at government events to prevent a governing party from using taxpayer money to promote itself.
Civil servants are instructed to inform the public about policies and programs "in an accountable, non-partisan fashion," according to rules set out by the Treasury Board, which sets rules for Canada's federal bureaucracy.
"[Government] Institutions must not participate in, or lend support to, partisan events organized for political party purposes," according to the rules.
Poilievre's spokeswoman didn't respond to a request for comment, nor did the department.
The press release regarding Poilievre's event, which outlined a series of other MPs promoting the benefit, was produced by the federal government and not the Conservative Party.
The universal child tax benefit, or UCCB, is a taxable benefit first put in place in 2006 and increased for 2015. But $3 billion in lump-sum payments were delivered to Canadians Monday because the increase was included in last spring's federal budget, which couldn't be put in place before Parliament voted to approve it.
NDP Leader Tom Mulcair on Monday repeated his promise to continue the UCCB but augment it with one million child-care spaces, which the NDP say they would provide to parents for $15 a day. Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau says he would cancel the UCCB and replace it with a tax-free benefit that's worth more to families making less than $150,000 a year. The Liberals say they would pay for the plan by ending benefits for families making more than $200,000 a year.
Monday isn't the first time Poilievre has been criticized for using government resources for partisan ends.
Last May, the Globe and Mail reported Poilievre used public servants from his department to shoot video of him meeting constituents, which was subsequently used in a partisan video.
Despite criticism in question period over the taxpayer-funded overtime, Poilievre was unrepentant.
"I make no apologies for informing parents of the expanded universal child-care benefit," he said at the time."
NDP Treasury Board critic Mathieu Ravignat, a former federal public servant, called the T-shirt inappropriate, and said there's a time to be a minister and a time to be a cheerleader for one's party.
"This blurs the clear line between ... [the] partisan nature of an event and the public service, and its need to be objective," Ravignat said.
Liberal MP Adam Vaughan said it's a clear violation of the rules.
"Are they going to have a Conservative logo on the tax bill you get sent when they claw this benefit back? My guess is no," he said.
Poilievre drew a number of snarky tweets Sunday when he referred to the day the money would arrive as "Christmas in July."
One more sleep until Christmas in July for Moms and Dads! #UCCB #YourKidsYourWay pic.twitter.com/lVGwdQF07P
Many people had questions about the tax implications or pointed out that the benefit is taxable.
.@PierrePoilievre @InklessPW Then in April the Grinch claws some of it back in taxes.
Others pointed out it's directed at people with children, so those without or with children 18 and over get nothing.
@PierrePoilievre @InklessPW Real Christmas presents aren't taxable. And childless people are just getting... a lump of bitumen?
Conservative MPs repeatedly tweeted about the child-care benefit, asking parents to use Twitter to let them know when the money appeared in their bank accounts.
Attention Moms & Dads: Tweet/Facebook me & @PMHarper when your child care money arrives to let us know you got it!
Moms & Dads: Today you should get your increased UCCB payments, please post to twitter and facebook so @PMHarper will know you received it!
Prime Minister Stephen Harper also tweeted about the universal child-care benefit, but the responses may have been more negative than he would have liked.
More money in your pockets: families across Canada receive their increased #UCCB cheques today. #Yourkidsyourway
In 2010, Ethics Commissioner Mary Dawson wrote that steps should be taken to address the use of partisan logos at government news conferences. Dawson looked at the Conservatives' use of giant novelty cheques at funding announcements and found that "using partisan identifiers in announcing government initiatives goes too far."
On Monday, a spokeswoman for Dawson said there are no conflict of interest rules to prevent an MP from wearing partisan logos to hand out taxpayer money.
"While it could be seen to be inappropriate, the wearing of the T-shirt to such an event would not contravene the Conflict of Interest Act or the Conflict of Interest Code for Members of the House of Commons," Margot Booth wrote in an email to CBC News.

Summarize this article in one sentence.
If you do proceed to trial, your case will either be decided by a judge or a jury. Usually, the parties decide whether to have the case decided by a judge or jury. In some cases, you may want to ask for a judge and not request a jury.If you are representing yourself, a trial before a judge is likely to be more informal, and you will not have to worry about the jury’s impression of you in the courtroom. You should ask for a jury if your case has “emotional appeal” and you think the jury may be sympathetic to your cause. However, keep in mind that this can backfire if someone on the jury doesn’t like you. Keep in mind that the trial will have all of the same “parts,” regardless of whether you are in front of a judge or a jury. The “opening statement” is a type of speech given at the start of trial. It is your first opportunity to introduce yourself and your case. If you filed the lawsuit (and therefore are the plaintiff), you will give your opening statement first, followed by the defendant. In your opening statement, you should give an overview of what your case is about and what your evidence will prove. You should begin proving your case by telling the jury what evidence is in your favor and what happened to you. Keep in mind that you cannot state your own opinions in an opening statement, and if you do so you could be reprimanded by the judge. During the presentation of the case, you will call your own witnesses, and “examine” them (this is called direct examination). You will also have the opportunity to ask questions of your opponent’s witnesses (this is called cross examination). To prepare for calling and examining your witnesses, make sure that they all agree to be present at the trial. For direct examination, you should prepare a notebook with an outline of what you want to ask the witnesses. Ask questions that will encourage the witnesses to talk, instead of “yes” and “no” questions. To get comfortable with questioning witnesses, you can meet with them to practice beforehand. For cross examination, realize that you probably won’t get that much useful information, and limit or completely forgo examining the opposing witnesses. Only cross examine the opposing witnesses if you can get evidence from them that supports your version of events or discredits their trustworthiness as a witness. Always be kind and polite to any witnesses, even during cross examination. Arguing with or badgering a witness (even an opposing witness) looks bad to the jury, and could get you in trouble with the judge. A closing argument is delivered at the end of a trial, after all of the evidence has been presented and all witnesses have been called. A closing argument is the last chance you will have to address the judge or the jury. Closing arguments are usually between 10 and 20 minutes, but, if the case is extremely complicated, they can be much longer, in some cases up to one hour. Unlike an opening statement, which can be written well in advance of the trial, a closing argument will be based on the events of the trial, so to prepare an effective closing argument, make sure that you take notes throughout the trial. To see in-depth information about preparing a closing argument, visit wikiHow’s guide on writing a closing argument. Even after the trial has ended, the losing party can appeal the loss to a higher court. An appeal is a request to a higher court to review and overturn the decision of a lower court. In federal court, appeals are heard by the United States Court of Appeals. In state court systems, the appeals courts go by various names. If you think you might want to appeal the decision in your case, make sure you understand the following: How appeals are decided: generally, the courts of appeal do not want to tell the trial judge that he made the wrong decision, or “overrule” that decision. Therefore, an appeals court will usually only overturn the decision of a lower court if the lower court made a significant error of law.What a “significant error of law” is will be completely different depending on each particular case. What evidence you can present: The courts of appeals do not look at any new evidence that may have been discovered after the case was decided (either by the judge or the jury). Instead, the court will look at the documents from the case, a “brief” by both parties discussing why each one believes that they have the correct view, and in some cases, will listen to both parties argue your case in front of the court (this is referred to as “oral argument). The consequences of an unsuccessful appeal: if a party unsuccessfully appeal the court’s order, the higher court will “affirm” the lower court’s ruling (or the jury’s), and the current judgment will stand. For more information on appealing a court order, visit WikiHow’s guide on Appealing a Court Order.

General Sir Walter Congreve VC. Sir Walter's remarkable letter revealing his reluctance to fraternise with German soldiers during the Christmas Day truce in 1914 is set to go on public display tomorrow As the artillery fell quiet, Tommies and German troops famously put down their weapons, emerged from the trenches, played football and swapped gifts in no man’s land. But General Sir Walter Congreve, VC, shunned the Christmas Truce of 1914 – because he didn’t trust the Germans to resist shooting an officer of his high rank, a letter he wrote to his wife reveals. Congreve, who led the Rifle Brigade, wrote the letter after visiting troops in a section of trench known as Dead Man’s Alley in northern France on December 25, 1914.

Summarize:
Media playback is not supported on this device
Two penalties apiece from Toby Flood and his replacement Owen Farrell brought England to within four points after Pat Lambie's boot and Willem Alberts' fortuitous try had opened up a 10-point Springbok lead.
Media playback is not supported on this device
But England's efforts ended in controversy when they opted to kick a late penalty rather than go for the try that would have put them in front.
While Farrell landed the three points there was insufficient time to mount another attack, and a more battle-hardened, streetwise Springbok unit had the win.
It means England have now failed to beat the Springboks in their last 11 meetings, and effectively ends their hopes of a top four seeding going into the draw for the next World Cup.
No team outside of a top four ranking has ever won the World Cup and England will be drawn with one of the top four teams in the group stages of the tournament they will host in 2015.
Wholehearted and hard-working, Stuart Lancaster's men nonetheless lacked both composure and a cutting edge.

And with the New Zealand All Blacks to come at Twickenham next Saturday, there is a strong possibility that they will end their autumn campaign with just a solitary victory over Fiji to show for their efforts.
England had come out of the traps at pace, Geoff Parling charging down Ruan Pienaar's clearing kick from the very first ruck to set up a penalty chance that Flood pulled across the posts from wide right.
Moments later a simpler chance following a side-stepping run from Mike Brown and dynamic series of drives from the forwards allowed Flood put the home side 3-0 up, only for Lambie to level things up from South Africa's first spell in England's 22.
Flood was mangled by three defenders as he attempted to run possession from deep and was helped off the pitch, returning to bang over a second, straightforward penalty before Lambie returned the compliment after skipper Chris Robshaw was penalised at the turning scrum.
England were dominating at the scrum, Flood missing a simple penalty when the Springbok pack was split asunder.
"These are the moments that can haunt a leader for night after sleepless night. Decide in an instant, live with the repercussions for an age. Stick or twist? Red or black? Kick or corner?"
But South Africa were making their few chances count. Lambie made it 6-9 after referee Nigel Owens spotted hands in the ruck, and Tom Youngs was penalised for a crooked line-out to cost his side further momentum.
Better was to come. A slicing break from Alex Goode after a frantic spell on halfway brought the crowd to full voice; Flood tried a grubber into space for Manu Tuilagi to run on to but over-cooked it.
Turnover deep in home territory opened a possible overlap that Ben Youngs - perhaps conscious of his over-adventure last week - chose to kick deep instead, and full-back Zane Kirchner did well to cover and kick clear.
If South Africa were a touch fortunate to lead at the break, there was a significant slice of luck about the try that followed soon after the interval.

A rebound from an attempted kick through gave them territory, and when Juandre Kruger dropped the ball five yards out Youngs' hack clear hit JP Pietersen, eluded Ben Morgan and fell into the grateful grasp of a surprised Alberts a yard out as he flopped over the line.
Lambie added the conversion for 6-16, and as the rain fell the outlook darkened for the men in white.
Only when Manu Tuilagi burst away on an intercept from his own 22 did the atmosphere lift. The centre found Chris Ashton on his inside as he ran out of gas, but the winger's pass to Brown outside him was poor and the opening was gone.
England's struggles at the line-out were intensifying. A fourth loss off their own throw brought a grimace from hooker Youngs, and there was a lack of precision when the ball was put through hands.
Farrell brought it back to 9-16 with 18 minutes left on the clock after Springbok hands in the ruck, but there was a distinct absence of composure and the kicking from hand was poor.
Prolonged pressure and territory failed to yield points. Farrell was struggling to fire the attack; the difficult conditions led to handling errors, and stout defence - with Eben Etzebeth outstanding - snuffed out the rest.
Replacement prop Mako Vunipola spilt the ball when looking to rumble, yet a Springbok error on their own scrum and forwards going off their feet at subsequent ruck gave Farrell an easy penalty for 12-16.
"Let's not forget South Africa are the second best team in the world and England will be absolutely devastated they couldn't go on and win it. I think we must remember Chris Robshaw is a relatively inexperienced player and doing a great job, but kicking for the corner was the right option at the end. I was a little bit surprised at the decision to turn down a penalty on the halfway line before that which would have given them the opportunity in the last five minutes to go on and win the game. I do think England did a lot better today and played the conditions very well. They will count themselves unlucky and rue a fortuitous South Africa try, which kind of dealt them a hammer blow, and some of those Toby Flood missed penalties in the first half, as well as those key decisions in the second half."
At last the capacity 81,000 crowd began to believe. A scrum penalty on halfway was kicked to touch to set up an attacking line-out on the Springbok 22, and the forwards took it up until replacement hooker David Paice knocked on to howls of dismay.
The seconds ticked away, England battering against a green wall and making minimal inroads.
With two minutes left, a lifeline. South Africa were penalised again, but rather than kicking to touch, Farrell was instructed by Robshaw to take the three points that made it 15-16.
It was a calculated gamble greeted with boos from many in the crowd and when the Springboks took control from the restart it was one that failed.
A game that was winnable had slipped away, and England's weary players sank to their knees as the final whistle sounded.

Ottoman cuisine refers to the cuisine of the capital, Istanbul, and the regional capital cities, where the melting pot of cultures created a common cuisine that most of the population regardless of ethnicity shared. This diverse cuisine was honed in the Imperial Palace's kitchens by chefs brought from certain parts of the Empire to create and experiment with different ingredients. The creations of the Ottoman Palace's kitchens filtered to the population, for instance through Ramadan events, and through the cooking at the Yalıs of the Pashas, and from there on spread to the rest of the population.
