Before the Court is a petition for review on certiorari under Rule 45 of the 1997 Rules of Civil Procedure assailing the Decision[1] dated August 22, 2001 of the Court of Appeals (CA) in CA-G.R. CV No. 57719 which set aside the Decision dated July 22, 1997 of the Regional Trial Court, Branch 1, Balanga, Bataan (RTC) in Civil Case No. 6223 and ordered Alberto Herbon, Margarito Herbon and Gabino Herbon (petitioners) to vacate the subject premises in favor of Leopoldo T. Palad and Helen P. Cayetano (respondents).
The factual background of the case is as follows:
In his lifetime, Gonzalo Palad
(Gonzalo) was a co-owner of a parcel of agricultural land located in Poblacion,
Sometime during the Japanese
Occupation, Alejandra died. On
During the trial, respondents presented oral evidence to show that Gonzalo expressed his intentions regarding the disposition of his properties, which included his share in Lot 421 and a 173-square meter lot in Pag-asa, Bagac, Bataan (Pag-asa property); that Gonzalo intended that the Pag-asa property would be given to Remedios and the same would be left to her granddaughter, Merlita Herbon Espiritu (Merlita),[11] eldest daughter of petitioner Gabino Herbon; that Gonzalos share in Lot 421 should be left to Ignacio; that the Pag-asa property has already been transferred to Merlita in accordance with the wishes of Gonzalo; that it was the Palad tradition that land inherited by members of the clan shall be disposed only to the clan and to no other person.
On the other hand, petitioners
presented a Deed of Absolute Sale dated December 9, 1957 executed by Jacinto selling
his shares in Lot 421 to Gonzalo, Adelaida and Ignacio,[12]
as well as a Deed of Absolute Sale dated December 16, 1957 executed by sisters
Modesta and Concordia selling their separate shares in Lot 421 in favor of Gonzalo,
Adelaida and Ignacio.[13] They submit that since the shares were
acquired during the marriage of Gonzalo and Remedios, said shares form part of
the conjugal property and Remedios was entitled to a part thereof as her
conjugal share. Moreover, as surviving heir of Gonzalo, Remedios inherited Gonzalos
shares in
rebuttal witnesses, Bayani M. Palad (Bayani) and Maria A. Gallego (Maria) testified
that Benjamin, Gonzalos son, paid for Jacintos shares in the Deed of Absolute
Sale dated
P3,000.00 as attorneys fees and the cost of suit.[14] The RTC
held that the action for recovery of possession cannot prosper since
petitioners proved that they are co-owners of the subject property based on the
two deeds of absolute sale; that Remedios inherited a portion of Gonzalos
share in Lot 421; that when Remedios died in 1992, her shares in Lot 421 were
inherited by her three sons, herein petitioners; that being co-owners, petitioners
cannot be ejected since no definite portion of Lot 421 was allotted to
petitioners and respondents.
respondents filed an appeal with the CA, docketed as CA-G.R. CV No. 57719. On
No motion for reconsideration was filed by the petitioners. Instead, they filed the present petition anchored on the following grounds:
As to the first ground, petitioners take exception from the CAs finding of implied trust. They contend that Marias testimony regarding Benjamins alleged payment of Jacintos shares should not be given credence since she did not give details of the transaction which she witnessed.
Anent the second ground, petitioners argue that Concordia failed to convincingly deny the genuineness of her signature on a public instrument; that, even if the sale by Concordia is void, the sale by Modesta is valid since Concordia merely declared in court that she did not sign the deed, without saying that her sister did not sign the same.
With respect to the third ground,
petitioners aver that, even without the benefit of the two deeds of sale, they
cannot be ousted from
Respondents counter that the CA correctly held that an implied trust was created when Benjamin paid for Jacintos share in Lot 421 in the Deed of Absolute Sale dated December 9, 1957 and petitioners failed to controvert Marias testimony on this matter; that the Deed of Absolute Sale dated December 16, 1957 is void because Concordia disowned having sold her share and that of her sister to any person and the signatures of sisters Modesta and Concordia are forgeries.
The Court rules in favor of the petitioners.
As a general rule, in petitions for review, the jurisdiction of this Court in cases brought before it from the CA is limited to reviewing questions of law which involves no examination of the probative value of the evidence presented by the litigants or any of them.[19] The Supreme Court is not a trier of facts; it is not its function to analyze or weigh evidence all over again.[20] Accordingly, findings of fact of the appellate court are generally conclusive on the Supreme Court.[21]
Nevertheless, jurisprudence has recognized several exceptions in which factual issues may be resolved by this Court, such as: (1) when the findings are grounded entirely on speculation, surmises or conjectures; (2) when the inference made is manifestly mistaken, absurd or impossible; (3) when there is grave abuse of discretion; (4) when the judgment is based on a misapprehension of facts; (5) when the findings of facts are conflicting; (6) when in making its findings the CA went beyond the issues of the case, or its findings are contrary to the admissions of both the appellant and the appellee; (7) when the findings are contrary to the trial court; (8) when the findings are conclusions without citation of specific evidence on which they are based; (9) when the facts set forth in the petition as well as in the petitioners main and reply briefs are not disputed by the respondent; (10) when the findings of fact are premised on the supposed absence of evidence and contradicted by the evidence on record; (11) when the CA manifestly overlooked certain relevant facts not disputed by the parties, which, if properly considered, would justify a different conclusion.[22] The Court finds that exceptions (2), (4), (5), and (7) apply to the present petition.
On the matter of implied trust, Article 1448 of the Civil Code provides:
Art. 1448. There is an implied trust when property is sold, and the legal estate is granted to one party but the price is paid by another for the purpose of having the beneficial interest of the property. The former is the trustee, while the latter is the beneficiary. However, if the person to whom the title is conveyed is a child, legitimate or illegitimate, of the one paying the price of the sale, no trust is implied by law, it being disputably presumed that there is a gift in favor of the child. (Emphasis supplied)
The trust created under the first sentence of Article 1448 is sometimes referred to as a purchase money resulting trust, the elements of which are: (a) an actual payment of money, property or services, or an equivalent, constituting valuable consideration; and (b) such consideration must be furnished by the alleged beneficiary of a resulting trust.[23]
As a rule, the burden of proving the existence of a trust is on the party asserting its existence, and such proof must be clear and satisfactorily show the existence of the trust and its elements.[24] While implied trusts may be proved by oral evidence,[25] the evidence must be trustworthy and received by the courts with extreme caution, and should not be made to rest on loose, equivocal or indefinite declarations. Trustworthy evidence is required because oral evidence can easily be fabricated.[26] Thus, in order to establish an implied trust in real property by parol evidence, the proof should be as fully convincing as if the acts giving rise to the trust obligation are proven by an authentic document.[27] An implied trust, in fine, cannot be established upon vague and inconclusive proof.[28]
In the present case, the parol
evidence offered to prove the existence of an implied trust is lean, frail and
far from convincing. The testimonies of Bayani
and Maria that Benjamin, instead of Gonzalo, paid for Jacintos shares in
The hornbook rule on interpretation of contracts gives primacy to the intention of the parties, which is the law among them. Ultimately, their intention is to be deciphered from the language used in the contract, not from the unilateral post facto assertions of one of the parties, or even third parties who are strangers to the contract. And when the terms of the agreement, as expressed in such language, are clear, they are to be understood literally, just as they appear on the face of the contract.[30]
In this case, the Deed of Absolute Sale dated
Without any doubt, oral testimony as to a certain fact, depending as it does exclusively
on human memory, is not as reliable as written or documentary evidence.[32]
As Judge Limpkin of
As to the Deed of Absolute Sale dated
Mere denial by Concordia that she signed the deed[40] cannot prevail over the positive presumption enjoyed by a notarial document. Negative and self-serving, denial deserves no weight in law when unsubstantiated by clear and convincing evidence. No other witness or evidence was presented to corroborate Concordias testimony. Settled is the rule that forgery cannot be presumed; it must be proved by clear, positive and convincing evidence.[41]
Moreover, the similarity of signatures of Modesta and Concordia in the deed is not proof of forgery. The fact of forgery can only be established by a comparison between the alleged forged signature and the authentic and genuine signature of the person whose signature is theorized to have been forged.[42] No standard or specimen signatures of Concordia and Modesta were offered to compare with the signatures appearing in the questioned deed of sale. Comparison of signatures cannot be made from two signatures appearing on the same document.
Having failed to present strong, complete, and conclusive proof that the notarized deed of sale was false, the presumption of regularity, the evidentiary weight conferred upon such public document with respect to its execution, as well as the statements and the authenticity of the signatures thereon, stand.
All the foregoing considered, respondents claim for recovery of possession of real property must fail. In the absence of Gonzalos written last will and testament, the law on intestate succession applies in the disposition of his estate.[43] The so-called Palad tradition that the property in question should belong only to the Palad clan cannot supersede the law on intestate succession.
The and 1/14 shares in Lot 421 Gonzalo acquired during his marriage to his first wife, Alejandra, are conjugal shares,[44] such that upon the death of Alejandra, one-half of the subject shares were automatically reserved to the surviving spouse, Gonzalo, as his share in the conjugal partnership.[45] Alejandras rights to the other half, in turn, were transmitted upon her death to her legitimate children and surviving spouse Gonzalo.[46] Under the Old Civil Code which was then in force, Gonzalo was entitled only to the usufruct of the land equal to that corresponding by way of legitime to each of the legitimate children[47] who has not received any betterment.[48] Gonzalos share in the conjugal partnership and his usufructory right were brought into his second marriage with Remedios.
As to the shares in
Thus, petitioners, as co-owners, have
the right to posses and occupy
WHEREFORE, the petition is GRANTED. The assailed Decision dated

WILMINGTON, NC (WECT/AP) – Hundreds of people lined the streets in Wilmington Friday to watch as a horse drawn carriage carried a member of the North Carolina National Guard who was killed by a suicide bomber in Afghanistan.
People were wearing red, white and blue and held flags to pay their respects during the funeral procession for Sgt. Thomas J. Butler IV.
People from all over the area made the drive early Friday morning to be sure they could get to Andrews Mortuary with their flags, before the family arrived. People from Bladenboro, Surf City, were only a few of the long drives in to Wilmington.
Some people cried, others smiled. Some knew Butler, while others did not. Regardless, everyone was proud to be an American Friday morning.
The crowd of supporters moved up and down Market street as Sgt. Butler's funeral procession went from the funeral home, to the First Baptist Church, and finally to the National Cemetery.
Butler, 25, grew up in Pender County and was one of three National Guard members killed from North Carolina. A Taliban suicide bomber rammed a motorcycle packed with explosives into a joint U.S.-Afghan patrol in Khost, Afghanistan.
Butler joined the Guard in 2007 and was on his first combat deployment.
A funeral service was held for Butler Friday morning at the First Baptist Church in Wilmington. He will be buried at the Wilmington National Cemetery.
Butler leaves behind his wife, Holly, and their 6-month-old son, who was named after him.
A funeral service for Staff Sgt. Donna R. Johnson of Raeford is scheduled for Saturday. Sgt. Jeremy F. Hardison of Browns Summit was buried Thursday.

Hope You Like The Taste Of Titanium in That Yogurt
Are you the sort of person who unwinds with a big healthy cup of "Greek" yogurt? Or survives on a three-soy-latte-a-day diet? Well, excellent news: in all cases, this means you are likely ingesting nanoparticles of titanium several times a day.
Mother Jones' Tom Philpott reported yesterday that the Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies (PEN) tracks the addition of tiny particles of metal to a number of foods:
[T]he PEN database lists 96 food items currently on US grocery shelves that contain unlabeled nano ingredients. Examples include Dannon Greek Plain Yogurt, Silk Original Soy Milk, Rice Dream Rice Drink, Hershey's Bliss Dark Chocolate, and Kraft's iconic American Cheese Singles, all of which now contain nano-size titanium dioxide. As recently as 2008, only eight US food products were known to contain nanoparticles, according to a recent analysis from Friends of the Earth—a more than tenfold increase in just six years.
Another of those products PEN found is, you know, milk.
In a world where it is safe to presume that there is literal shit in your meat, an uproar over the metal in milk might seem premature. Metal is clinical, polished, your scrubbed stainless steel sink. And titanium dioxide, as it turns out, is in a lot of things these days, up to and including the sunscreen you're about to rub into your skin all summer long. It's apparently a great whitener and brightener.
But then there is the whole messy matter of "food safety standards," since it seems no one has really tested for the effect of ingesting titanium in nano form:
Back in 2012, the FDA released a draft, pending public comment, of a proposed new framework for bringing nano materials into food. The document reveals plenty of reason for concern. For example: "so-called nano-engineered food substances can have significantly altered bioavailability and may, therefore, raise new safety issues that have not been seen in their traditionally manufactured counterparts." The report went on to note that "particle size, surface area, aggregation/agglomeration, or shape may impact absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) and potentially the safety of the nano-engineered food substance."
What FDA is saying here is obvious: If nanoparticles didn't behave differently, the industry wouldn't be using them in the first place.
And one can't help but wonder whether this is not a first step in a kind of stealth robot apocalypse. First, we get metal in our food. Then, tiny microchips...

Dr. Paula Gill Lopez and 35 student volunteers from the University's School Psychology Graduate Program will be coordinating the 7th annual Diversity Day at Mohegan Elementary School on Friday, December 2.
This event teaches fourth grade students what it means to be 'different.' The fourth graders rotate to stations run by Fairfield students and parent volunteers to see what it's like to not be able to use parts of their body, to have issues with hearing or vision, or to experience social difficulties. At the end of each rotation, the station captain sums up the primary lesson and asks concluding questions. The students are also exposed to a lesson about diversity which helps to introduce and wrap up the primary take-away points from the stations.
School Psychology and other students are welcome to volunteer. It is an opportunity for School Psychology students to get hands-on experience prior to other practicum/internship experiences while supporting members of the community. For additional information, e-mail Dr. Gill Lopez.

Story highlights
- Nicholas Sparks has set the bar for movie romance
- He revisits some classic scenes in movies including "The Notebook" and "Dear John"
- Sparks also offers some of his favorite anti-romantic entertainment
Valentine's Day means love. For some, that's in the arms of someone special. For others, it means curling up with a tub of ice cream and a good Nicholas Sparks story. As our modern day master of romance, CNN asked Sparks to share some of his lessons in love, as well as insights about some of his favorite scenes from "The Notebook," "A Walk to Remember," "Safe Haven," and more. Plus, he reveals some some anti-Valentine's Day picks for those who've overdosed on the sappiness. Spoiler alert: Even those are Sparks-ian.
'Message in a Bottle,' 1999
Theresa Osborne (Robin Wright) finds a love letter in a bottle, and is determined to find the writer, Garret Blake (Kevin Costner). Garret is still mourning his wife, to whom he wrote, while a new (though doomed) romance with Theresa blossoms.
"There was a scene the film needed, and it didn't come in until the final version of the script," Sparks said. "It's a scene right towards the end of the novel, where we had to make it really clear that the character Garret Blake, played by Kevin Costner, was fully committed to his future with Theresa Osborne, played by Robin Wright Penn." This was harder to do than it sounds, he said, because as a viewer, you would question the set-up.
"You know a storm is coming, so you'd be like, 'Well, why are you going out on the boat? Why don't you just send a bottle out tomorrow?' " The catch was to help the viewer know that Garret's death was an accident. He didn't intend to die. He was not going out in the storm as a form of suicide. The message comes across in Theresa's discovery of Garrett's "shrine" to his late wife Catherine.
"Throughout the film, he's been very edgy about this particular artist's corner that had been his wife's, which had her easel and her paintbrushes and the glass used to clean her paintbrushes, and so by the time Theresa walks in and she sees it, all of this has been removed. Instead, there are photos of them, and a photo of her son, and the article that they clipped. You knew just by that, that was going to be the new corner of his life, one of the things that holds up the walls of his life." Garrett needed the shrine, Sparks said, "but he gave up his shrine for his new person." When Theresa sees this, she realizes "that he did love her, that he could move beyond the pain of losing his wife."
Love lesson: It may not be wise to name your boat after your dead wife.
'A Walk to Remember,' 2002
Sparks' coming of age novel was "written about a couple of 17-year-olds in 1958, so it was a little bit of a different era," Sparks said. One of the first things the producers of the film did was ask him if it would be OK to update the film and make it a modern story. "I had no problems with that. Jamie (Mandy Moore) and Landon (Shane West) were still very much like the characters in the book. Jamie was still a minister's daughter. Landon still had a lot of work to do to grow up," he said.
Sparks' most memorable scene in the film is when Landon discovers his father paid for Jamie's medical care (she has Leukemia). "After an entire film of understanding how much Landon disliked his father, he shows up, and it's all he can do simply to say, 'Thank you.' And then his father holds him and he cries. That to me is a genuinely emotional, non-manipulative scene," he said. "Landon learned to take responsibility for his own life, and stop blaming others."
Love lesson: Blaming your parents only goes so far
'The Notebook,' 2004
"Ah, the kiss in the rain!" Sparks laughed. "I'm not sure you can name a Nicholas Sparks film without a kiss in the rain, right? There's got to be a boat, it's got to be the rain or at least around water, and a kiss ... Of course, this film will always be remembered for that. But for me, the scene that is perhaps the most charming and original is the scene when Noah (Ryan Gosling) and Allie (Rachel McAdams) are young, and they're at the house that Noah intends to rebuild. They're moving towards this moment of great passion and she's just so nervous that she can't stop talking. It kind of ruins the moment. 'How can you not be nervous? What are you thinking? You're not thinking about anything?' It just makes me smile. I've never seen anything like it in another film or on television."
Love lesson: Don't overthink the moment.
'Nights in Rodanthe,' 2008
Richard Gere and Diane Lane star as lovers who meet at an inn in North Carolina. They've had dinner, "but they don't know each other yet," Sparks said. Which leads to his favorite moment: "It's later that night; she's standing off one balcony, and he's standing off another. You knew there had been a connection between them, and here they are, they're both looking out over the ocean, and there's this distance, the separation between them. To me, it just rings of all sorts of symbolism -- how well do you know someone? Can you ever really connect with somebody? You're so close, but so far away. It just seems to me like it could be a poster of life itself. It could be a painting."
Love lesson: Balconies should be shared.
'Dear John,' 2010
"We knew before page one of the script was written that Channing Tatum was who we wanted for John," Sparks said. "He was the right age, he had the right look, he had the right demeanor. You put Channing Tatum on screen, and something happens." Besides the chemistry between Tatum and Amanda Seyfried as Savannah, Sparks particularly connected with the unraveling of the movie's framework in the hospital when John's dad is dying. "You have this great letter written at the beginning of the movie, and you think this letter was written to (Amanda Seyfried), and it's revealed that it was actually written to the dad. That twist is so unexpected. Coupled with the poignancy of the situation, it just really hit home."
Love lesson: Love letters aren't just for sweethearts.
'The Lucky One,' 2012
Taylor Schilling, now a star on Netflix series "Orange is the New Black," had such incredible chemistry with Zac Efron in this film that Sparks feels they topped the kiss from "The Notebook." "Believe me, whenever we're making a new film, this will come up in the discussion -- 'How do we do this new?' That's what we have to do. Whenever we make a new film, memories of all of these films are as conscious in their memories as it is in mine. And it's conscious in the cast's memories, too! They want to do their own version of the most memorable kiss that tops them all!" So whenever Schilling and Efron are "kissing or growing more passionate, either outside in the shower or upstairs in the loft," he said, "you really feel the passion they had towards each other."
Love lesson: Make kissing an art form.
'Safe Haven,' 2013
Of all of Sparks' books made into films, "Safe Haven," starring Julianne Hough and Josh Duhamel, is the one he was on set for the most -- because it was filmed an hour-and-a-half from his house. But being on set so much gave him a new insight into how scenes play out on screen. For instance, the fireworks scene, "a really short scene in the book," took all night to capture. "Fireworks were going off "every 20 minutes, from 9 p.m. to 5:30 a.m. Boom! Boom! Boom!," Sparks recalled. "It was the one night the town got mad at us." And it's just for a shot to pan up to the fireworks as Duhamel and Hough hold each other.
But as far as the romance is concerned, Sparks picked two moments -- "the two of them in the canoe, and the scene in the stairs." In the canoe, Duhamel's character Alex reveals to Hough's Katie how hard it is to be a dad, and how he feels like he's making mistakes. "This was supposed to be his wife's job, and she's gone now, and he doesn't know what to do. He didn't get the list of instructions," Sparks said. "That very revealing moment, to me, is a moment of utter honesty. And you can compare that to the scene on the stairs, when she's getting ready to leave, and he says, 'No, you have to stay.' Those are bookends of honesty."
Love lesson: For love to be true, tell the truth.
Anti-Valentine's Day
No, that's not the title of one of Sparks' works.
If you're among those who feel that Valentine's Day is a commercial holiday that sets up unrealistic expectations, is a poor indicator of love and commitment, or you've been recently dumped and don't want to watch two people fall in love and have the best. kiss. ever., Sparks sympathizes. Here are his picks to indulge in a healthy dose of "love sucks."
"How about 'Jagged Edge,' 'Basic Instinct,' or 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall'?" he said, laughing. "I loved 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall.' I thought it was incredibly well done. It's the kind of film you get in the mood to watch every now and then, like 'The Breakfast Club.' To me, that's what it is. It's one of those that should grow in popularity over the years."
It should be noted that love connections are made in both "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" and "The Breakfast Club." The guy can't help it.
For television episodes, he recommends the Sam and Diane break-up on "Cheers." "That's a good one," he said, "because it had been so well-played for so many seasons that you couldn't help but root for them even though you knew they weren't right for each other. And it was a bittersweet ending. You're like, 'Couldn't you have been right for each other? Then it would have all worked out! Couldn't you have just been different people? Then it'd be perfect!' "
And the perfect anti-Valentine's Day song to listen to would be Phil Collins' "Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)." "It's a great song, number one," he said. "And then there's that kind of notifying, 'Take a look at me now!' You survived."
Whichever of these options you choose, Sparks said, "Have a girls night in and celebrate yourself!"
A limited edition collection of films adapted from Nicholas Sparks' books is available on DVD now.

What we learned: Seahawks' defense and special teams carry them over the ghastly Bears
Updated 11:57 am, Monday, September 28, 2015
Those in search of revelatory conclusions about the Seattle Seahawks will need to wait at least a few more weeks before anything substantial is gathered. In Sunday's 26-0 drubbing of the Chicago Bears at CenturyLink Field, they used Tyler Lockett's 105-yard kickoff return for a touchdown and recorded their first shutout since Dec. 15, 2013 in a road win over the New York Giants.
But little was revealed that most don't already know.
Lockett is an electric returner capable of breaking a game open at any point. Already knew that.
The defense is better when Kam Chancellor is playing strong safety instead of an undrafted, second-year player out of USC (apologies to recently-waived Dion Bailey). That's obvious after he made his season debut following an almost two-month contract holdout.
The Seahawks (1-2) aren't as bad as an 0-2 start might indicate.
This was a bad Bears team (0-3) playing without quarterback Jay Cutler and wide receiver Alshon Jeffery, who are both recovering from hamstring injuries.
This was a desperate Seahawks team that couldn't possibly start 0-3 if it hoped to win the NFC West with the Arizona Cardinals starting the season 3-0.
A record crowd of 69,002 fans packed into CenturyLink Field expecting to see a beating, and the final score indicated as much. But not in the classical sense.
The Seahawks were up 6-0 after halftime, scored one touchdown on offense and at one point were actually booed off the field during a particularly uninspiring offensive series late in the second quarter.
But there were signs the Seahawks aren't ready to regress as so many before them have following a Super Bowl loss. Even though it wasn't pretty, it never felt as though Chicago had any real chance to win.
The Bears ran all of three plays in Seahawks territory. Their 10 possessions ended in 10 punts.
Here's what else we learned from Sunday's win.

Minor parties or independent candidates have constitutional lawsuits pending in at least 21 states:
1. Arkansas, where the Green Party is challenging the state's definition of "qualified party".
2. California, where the Libertarian Party is challenging residency requirements for petition circulators.
3. Colorado, where two independent candidates are challenging the deadline for an independent to have left membership in a political party (the legislature fixed this problem this year but didn't make it effective until after the 2010 election, so the case is not moot because the candidates want to run in 2010).
4. Connecticut, where the Green and Libertarian Parties are awaiting a decision of the 2nd circuit in the case against discriminatory public funding for candidates.
5. District of Columbia, where the Libertarian Party is waiting for a decision on whether the Board of Elections should count write-ins cast for Bob Barr in 2008.
6. Georgia, where an independent candidate, Faye Coffield, challenges the number of signatures for to run for U.S. House. Her rehearing request in the 11th circuit was filed April 9 and is still pending.
7. Hawaii, where Ralph Nader's challenge to the number of signatures needed for an independent presidential candidate will be heard in the 9th circuit in Honolulu on June 17.
8. Kansas, where the Constitution Party is seeking to win the right to have voters register as members of the party, even though it is not ballot-qualified.
9. Massachusetts, where the Libertarian Party is in the 1st circuit over presidential stand-ins.
10. Montana, where an independent candidate for U.S. Senate is challenging the March petition deadline; the first brief in the 9th circuit was filed on June 11.
11. Nebraska, where an independent candidate and the Libertarian Party are both challenging the ban on out-of-state circulators.
12. New Hampshire, where the Libertarian Party is challenging the ban on presidential stand-ins, and the state's refusal to allow unqualified parties control over which candidates can use the party's label on the ballot.
13. New Jersey, where an independent candidate's lawsuit over ballot format is dormant but still alive in state court.
14. New Mexico, where the Green Party is challenging the state's definition of "political party".
15. North Carolina, where the Green and Libertarian Parties are challenging many of the state's ballot access laws in State Supreme Court, and where an independent candidate is challenging the number of signatures for an independent candidate for U.S. House.
16. Pennsylvania, where the Constitution, Green and Libertarian Parties are challenging the state's refusal to tally write-ins; the refusal of some counties to count any write-ins; the state's 15% voter registration membership test to be automatically on the ballot;and the state's policy of charging candidates huge court costs if their petitions are invalidated after being challenged.
17. South Carolina, where the Green Party is challenging the state law that says if a party nominates someone, and that person later tries to get another party's nomination and fails, then the first nomination is voided.
18. South Dakota, where the Constitution Party is challenging the number of signatures needed to get a candidate on the party's own primary ballot.
19. Utah, where an independent candidate is challenging the state's refusal to recognize electronic signatures on petitions.
20. Virginia, where the Libertarian Party is challenging the residency requirement for circulators.
21. Washington, where the Libertarian Party, along with the two major parties, is challenging the state's top-two election system.
Also pending is the case against the Post Office regulation that bans petitioning on interior post office sidewalks. This case is by far the oldest case on this list; it was filed over ten years ago and is still in U.S. District Court. And, two cases filed by referendum proponents are pending in Maryland over an interpretation of state law that says signatures are invalid if they aren't exact matches to the signer's name on the voter registration form.

The Recycle Bin has long been a presence within the Windows operating system despite all of the changes that the OS has gone through over the years.
The little Microsoft app is there for a very good reason. It has saved almost every user at some point over the course of its existence. It does so by providing a backup plan for the files you delete – just in case you accidentally remove something important.
In other words, this is something you want to have around to cover your back in case you accidentally do something stupid.
However, you can bypass this fail-safe, or even completely disable it, and we're going to show you the steps to do so.
Bypass the Recycle Bin
This one is easy. Locate the Recycle Bin on your desktop, right-click on it and select "Properties." This will pop up a small box that contains a minimum of options, so the one you need is fairly easy to spot (it's one option above the bottom).
Click the radio button that says "Don't move files to the Recycle Bin. Remove files immediately when deleted."
This will remain in effect as long as you leave the option enabled. It is also drive exclusive, so you can enable it for the C drive, but not the E drive (for example).
If it's for just one file that you wish to bypass the Recycle Bin, then you can hold down the "Shift" key while pressing the "Delete" button, saving yourself the task of enabling this.
Remove the Recycle Bin from the Desktop
The steps above allow you to disable the functionality of the Recycle Bin, but the icon will remain on your desktop, almost mocking you. If you wish to make this process complete and remove that as well, then there are other steps that need to be followed.
Head to the desktop and right-click on any blank area of it, then choose "Personalize." This will open a dialogue box within the Control Panel. On the left side you'll spot a couple of items – "Change desktop icons" is the one you'll wish to tap on.
The box that pops up serves a couple of useful functions. It allows the user to change the icon that is displayed for various Windows options. But it also controls what is displayed on the desktop. For instance, you can add "Computer" or "Control Panel" to your desktop.
Only one of the options shown is enabled by default in Windows 8.1, and that is the Recycle Bin. Uncheck the box next to it, click on the "Apply" button and then choose "OK" to finish things off.
The Recycle Bin isn't really gone from your computer after all of this; you can always bring it back by reversing the above processes. However, it has been disabled and hidden away from view.
We don't necessarily recommend this, as the app serves as a fail-safe for recovering files that have been deleted by accident, and that is a handy thing to have around. But, if you're sure this is the route you wish to follow, now you know how.

NHS 24 helpline staff have been criticised over their handling of a patient they told to take heartburn medicine less than a day before he died from blood poisoning.
In a fatal accident inquiry report into John Willock's death yesterday, Sheriff Colin Pettigrew found a "number of concerns and shortcomings" in how NHS 24 call handlers and nurses dealt with Mr Willock's pleas.
The 43-year-old, from Erskine, Renfrewshire, felt ill after falling on ice while delivering presents on Christmas Eve 2009. The father-of-two hurt his knee but also felt "fluish", cold, shivery and nauseous, prompting him to repeatedly call NHS 24.
In one recording played to the inquiry, Mr Willock pleaded: "Is there anything anyone could suggest or is there anything I can get for it? I cannot move. I am bedridden because of the diarrhoea."
When Mr Willock, an engineer, rang for a second time the day before he died, call handler Ann McDermid failed to inform another nurse Mr Willock had previously spoken to.
The sheriff said she was guilty of "numerous failings". A recorded conversation relayed that the nurse had said "the patient's got burning sensation" and "he's got a burning sensation in his chest for about ten hours" and "an' aw [sic] the other symptoms, OK?"
Nurse Fiona McCulloch, who took over the call, then ticked the wrong boxes on her diagnostic screen. If she had ticked the one marked "persistent abdominal upper abdominal discomfort", an emergency ambulance would have been sent for Mr Willock, the inquiry heard.
Instead, she told him to take Gaviscon and cold milk, later admitting this was inappropriate for someone suffering from sickness and diarrhoea.
On the third call, NHS 24 call handler Carolyn Fergie admitted at the inquiry she was "tired" at the time and confessed to being "abrupt", rushing the call and failing to listen to what Mr Willock was telling her.
She failed to record that Mr Willock was a "return caller" whose condition was "serious and urgent".
As a result, nurse Pamela Scally treated it as a first call and advised Mr Willock to contact his GP within 36 hours.
His condition deteriorated on 29 December and he died at home. He was visited the day he died by his GP, Dr Murray Macpherson, who decided he was not ill enough for hospital.
However, Sheriff Pettigrew said he could find no "reasonable precautions" or system failings that may have prevented Mr Willock's death.
He said: "There was insufficient evidence led before me to conclude that, even if a GP had visited Mr Willock [prior to the visit of Dr Macpherson] and given him an anti-emetic injection and arranged his admission to hospital, there was a 'real and lively possibility' that would in any event have made a difference. I find the correction of the numerous failings of the call handlers and nurse advisors … do not constitute 'reasonable precautions' whereby Mr Willock's death may have been avoided."
NHS 24 medical director, Professor George Crooks, said: "All staff involved have been subject to robust review of their practice and appropriate training and support put in place. These learnings have also been shared across our frontline staff."
Last night, Mr Willock's family in a statement said: "John was loved by his family and is greatly missed. Although the family is disappointed the sheriff did not make specific findings regarding the GPs, the sheriff's findings support the family view that there were significant failings on the part of the call handlers and nurse advisers involved in John's care."
In 2007, Gordon Greig, from Cardross, near Helensburgh, died of a massive heart attack after being told to take Gaviscon by staff at NHS 24.

Event Date:
Saturday, March 23, 2013 - 9:00am
Organist and Pianist Malcolm Halliday will offer a free Pipe Organ Demonstration in the Meeting House at the First Congregational Church of Shrewsbury. Called "Welcome to the Organ," this event is for anyone who would like to learn how a pipe organ works. This event is open to all people in the general community, and will be particularly geared toward children grade 5 and older, as well as adults of any age. This class will be of particular interest to folks who play the piano, but should also be fun for anyone who is fascinated by the organ as a complex machine, or who takes an interest in the science of sound. People will also be given the opportunity to play the organ. Because of the nature of this event, it will be helpful to know exactly who is planning to attend. Please call 508-845-7286 or email the office at email@example.com to let us know of your interest. This concert is sponsored by Arts on the Green, a concert and art series at the First Congregational Church of Shrewsbury, 19 Church Road, Shrewsbury, MA 01545.

Oh Eudora, you rascally old broad. You were rewriting fairytales before it was cool, weren't you. You savvy trendsetter!
I don't know where to start. Do I tell you about the genius that was Eudora Welty? Do I explain to you the unfamiliar fairytale, The Robber Bridegroom? Or do I just drive right into telling you about this book and hope I intrigue you enough that you will go look up Welty and the fairytale on your own?
Decisions, decisions….
Okay, I figure at this point, you are well acquainted with my tendency to ramble, so I'm going to try to briefly (that made me giggle a bit) touch on Welty and the fairytale, then dive into the book. Is that okay? If not, skim folks.
So, Eudora Welty. Queen of Southern Literature, in my oh so humble opinion, was a downright brilliant author. And what I find the most fascinating about her, is how long she lived. She was born in 1909 and she died in 2001. I kid you not. Think of all the things she saw. She won the Pulitzer (for The Optimists Daughter). She lectured at Harvard. She sat on the New York Times Book Review. Received a Guggenheim Fellowship. And I'm pretty sure you cannot get out of school in the South without reading something written by her. For me, it was her short story A Worn Path and excerpts from her novel Delta Wedding. I don't remember much about Delta Wedding, probably because we didn't read the whole thing, but her story A Worn Path stays with me to this day. In reading about her, I've found she loved fairytales. A woman after my own heart! Why it took so long, somehow, despite always meaning to read more of her work, it took me 12 years out of college to finally read her again, I'll never know. Let's just say I was stupid. Let's just ask the question, what took me so damn. long? I won't take me that long again.
The Robber Bridegroom (the fairytale) has several incarnations. I'm going to give you a shortened Grimm version. There was this miller, once upon a time, who had a daughter. When she comes of age, of course he wants to get her married. At least he wants to get her a respectable husband. Wants to. He just doesn't try very hard. The first man who pops up is by all appearances very rich and finding no fault with him (there is no mention as to how hard he tried, I'm betting not very hard) the father promises his daughter to him. Time passes, and the daughter never visits her intended (do you blame her??). You see, she didn't like the look of him, didn't trust him, and the very thought of him, "she felt within her heart a sense of horror."
Take about gut instinct.
Her intended calls her out on it and she replies that she doesn't know where he lives. He tells her it is in the dark woods and she returns basically with the reply that there is no way on God's green Earth that she's going out there. Undeterred, he tells her to come on Sunday, he's already invited guests and he will leave a trail of ashes for her to find her way. Ashes. Invokes a wee be of unease, yes? She goes, leaving a trail for herself of peas and lentils and finds her way to his house. His empty house. Empty except for a black bird that tells her "Turn back, turn back, you young bride. You are in a murderer's house." Have I got your attention now?
Up to this point, Eudora follows the story mostly. She changes the father, his story is much more, well, more and the groom has a name and an occupation. He's a handsome scoundrel. The daughter is an idiot, in my opinion, because she acts like a complete airhead. And she has a wicked stepmother now! After she finds the house, things change. In the fairytale, she finds an old woman who hides her from the men who would murder and eat her (yes, eat her) and helps her escape. In Eudora's story, she does something completely different.
No, I'm not going to tell you what. Although, if you look at the cover verrrry closely, you may get an idea.
In the fairytale, the old woman and the young bride escape and expose the bridegroom at the wedding. He and all his cohorts are put to death for their crimes. In the book, well, again, it's very different. Again, not going to tell you how. You have to read it people.
And read it you should. I love love love Welty's way with words. The way she takes the South, the Deep South, and mythologizes just sends me to the moon with love for this book. She takes this fairytale and mixes it with the South and creates something new, something slightly crazy, something slightly manic, something completely fascinating. The only thing I didn't like was the attitude towards blacks and Indians, which, knowing the time period the story is set… well, I know it's the way it was, but it doesn't make it easier. At least I know Phoenix from A Worn Path is out there in Welty's canon. If you haven't tried Welty's work, what are you waiting on? I'm definitely going to be reading more, very soon.
I bought this from Barnes & Noble as an ebook. If I was you, I would avoid this ebook at all costs. It looks like a 3rd grader typed it.
This counts for the Classics Club challenge and also my personal challenge of reading more classics in July.

Lights, Camera, Action….. Ooops we meant lights, camera and double action! Or should we say double the Drama, double the confusion, double the humor and double the thrill – pretty exciting ain't it?
Who can forget the roller-coaster laughter scenes we had in Seeta Aur Geeta. The elegant and Dynamic Dilip Kumar enacting Ram as well as Shyam. The bubbly and energetic Sridevi stealing hearts away with her double masti in Chaalbaaz. There is a lot more, but when it comes to the Shehenshah of Double Roles, our mind clock stops with the scenes of the Stylish Don and his Mumbaiyya look-alike, played by Amitabh Bachchan.
Yash Tonk" hspace=5 src="http://www.india-forums.com/tellybuzz/images/uploads/C1Z_yash_tonk_doubles.jpg" width=318 align=left vspace=5 border=1>Do you think the Double Role Fever ends there? This high action drama continues in our daily soaps as well. Take our own Kumkum aka Juhi Parmar who played the role of the Dhabewali Chanda in Kumkum Ek Pyara Sa Bandhan. The lovable Sachin Shroff essayed two almost opposite characters - the evil Karan as well as the dutiful son Dhruv in Sinndoor Tere Naam Ka. Sai Deodhar">Sai Deodhar too played multiple roles in Ek Ladki Anjani Si and so did Abhay Vakil in Paalkhi and the list is truly endless….
Now what makes a "Double role" click? Do the stars find it easy to enact a Double Role? Well, let us get answers to these questions from our very own "Double Role Specialist" of Tellydom, Yash Tonk. Yash has already previously played a double role in Kahiin Kisi Roz. He is now busy playing a double role in Balaji Telefilms' Karam Apnaa Apnaa. According to Yash, "There are more positives than negatives to get from double roles. It is stressful, but the challenge involved in enacting the roles of two identical, yet different characters , gives me the much needed excitement. The actor should be satisfied if one role of his complements the other role he is playing."
One check, two roles - an exciting yet not very lucrative deal for the actors but definetely a double treat for us, isn't it I-Fians?

IMO, > this method is acceptably fast. Here we have to disagree. From my experience of searching text databases a linear search is unacceptably slow. This is data structures 101 stuff, linear search average time N/2, binary chop N log N, hash table 1. where N is the number of terms to search through. Okay so pre-computing the index files is an overhead for anything above naive linear search. However, it would be possible to provide index files precomputed along with the raw text files. That means only 1 system ever need take the setup hit. A linear search requires that every user system take a performance hit. And every user take a performance hit too. > Searching every one of our modules except > the losungen (at least 100 modules total) took me 2 minutes (though some of > that might have been due to network lag since I was doing the search over a > modem through the cgi interface). That's about 100 modules, 598mb of data > searched on a 450mhz machine with an ATA-33 drive, which seems like pretty > acceptable performance to me. It depends upon your search criteria as to whether this is fast or not. A search for a single term through that volume of data could not be considered fast, if performed on a local copy of the data. Back in 1986 I designed a multi-file system to host 1,000,000 records. It occupied over 16Gb of disk space with about 5Gb being overhead for the inverted files; almost everything was searchable. A search for a single term, which just happened to be in 99% of the records, took less than 2 seconds to complete (including screen updates). :-| Back in '86 having that amount of disk space available on a single machine was still a luxury. Because we had precomputed the indices the search times were linear irrespective of processor; we favoured VAX architecture then. A later port of our text database system to MIPS hardware and DEC Ultrix improved our performance. We were getting better results on a MIPS 1000 series workstation than we could get from a dedicated VAX 8600! Called in to undertake a benchmark against the market leader in text databases we wiped the floor with them. They took several days to invert the original data; we took only a couple of hours. In the search tests we should have been second and them first. However, we beat them hands down despite the fact that the test searches favoured their organisation of index files over ours. (They sorted on field before term, whereas we sorted on term and then field.) In the intervening 15 or so years the power of workstations has improved to the state where it would be feasible to employ the same schemes for personal text databases such as SWORD. Perhaps I'm over ambitious in wanting similar response times with SWORD but it is achievable and I contend desirable. The only problem with this system was the port to HP workstations. A (very) junior programmer was given the task and he neglected to consider big- and little-endian issues. For all other platforms we could take the same text and index files and use them "out-of-the-box" with no regard for the platform they were originally prepared on. I'd love to see the same compatibility within SWORD. Regards, Trevor British Sign Language is not inarticulate handwaving; it's a living language. So recognise it now. -- <>< Re: deemed!

Who is Baha'u'llah?
"In this Day a great festival is taking place in the Realm above; for whatsoever was promised in the sacred Scriptures hath been fulfilled. This is the Day of great rejoicing." - Baha'u'llah
Baha'u'llah claimed to be a prophet, or manifestation, of God, and the Saviour promised in all the sacred scriptures who would come 'at the end of time' and bring about a glorious age in the history of humanity. His message has two central purposes: first, to confirm for the people of this age the message of salvation found in earlier religions and, second, to establish the principles that will lay the foundations for global peace. Baha'u'llah founded the world religion known as the Baha'i Faith. Its role is to inspire the people of the world, through spiritual and ethical means, to realise Baha'u'llah's purposes and benefit from his vision.
Baha'u'llah was born in Tehran, Iran, in 1817. He was exiled from Iran to Iraq in 1853 because of his religious views, and thereafter spent the rest of his life in exile in various counties in the Middle East until he died near Haifa, Israel, in 1892. The name "Baha'u'llah" is an Arabic title meaning 'Glory of God'.
Baha'u'llah wrote extensively throughout the 40 years of his ministry (1853-1892), producing works such as books, essays, letters and poems. His writings contain proclamations of his claim to be a manifestation of God, commentaries on important questions of religion, essays setting down the principles of sound governance, works outlining Baha'i law, and devotional texts.
This site contains an overview of Baha'u'llah's writings and teachings. Its purpose is to enable readers to investigate Baha'u'llah's claim for themselves, learn about what he taught, and find out what's involved in being Baha'i.

Daniel Koren has stamped a favorable impression of his creativity on the fashion critics. Last year, his Prêt‐� ‐Porter Collection with black and white diamonds was quite something. Even the colorful stackable bangles came to become a very popular trend. And now, Koren is trying to keep up with everyone's expectations thanks to the launch of a whole line of brilliantly colored rings.
The biggest attraction these rings have is that they can both be worn singly or stacked. We do agree the design and pattern may not be something new but the diamonds and gemstones like rubies and the sapphires in various colors bring a new spark to the rings that are made in 18K white, rose and yellow gold to complement the colors of stones used.
As� we already mentioned, the design is pretty simplistic with many many precious stones queuing up in three lines along the circular ring. Among the color of stones you can pick between dark pink, green, dark blue, light green, white ice and orange brown. By the way, you also have the option of buying the whole range to stack your finger. The starting range is $2,850 and goes on to $10,050.

You will have to fulfill certain criteria and should maintain certain level of quality to get the eligibility for these certifications. ISO registration is one such thing. This is a certificate giving to the company as a whole and not only for the product. A company has to maintain certain qualities to get this registration. Naturally the products or the service by a ISO certified company is considered as quality one by many customers. There are some professionals in the field you can help you in getting ISO registration.
Once you receive a ISO certificate and started advertising your products certainly you will get good responses. But if you do not have brand registration or logo registration, there is a chance that others will enjoy the fruits of your labor. Most of the customer may not have awareness about your company which is having ISO certification. But your products are familiar to them as the ones carrying ISO certificate. If you have not registered your trade mark, somebody will use the same mark to give mileage to their products. It will affect your business in two ways.

So your name will spoil in the market. Same is the case with logos also. Because, logo is the first thing, that get noticed by the customers. So it is better to go for brand registration and logo registration to safeguard your business interests.
Small scale industries are getting lot of benefits from various government programs. In some areas government has declared tax holidays for small scale industries. This will help them to reduce their prices in a highly competitive market. Certain other incentives like subsidy on power charges etc are also there in some other areas. But the companies with SSI registration only will be eligible for these incentives. So, if your industry is coming under this category it is better to avail this opportunity by taking a SSI registration immediately. TAN registration is also compulsory to run a smooth business. Doing business in a legal way is always helpful to lead a tensionless life. Besides if you have completed all the legal formalities you will get a lot of benefits out of it indirectly.
