Excellent 4.3 /5 from 212 reviews
We needed a place to stay for night before our flight and this hotel was great. We had to drive through some pretty scary and sad conditions to get there, but it was like an oasis in the desert. It was a beautiful property and had everything we needed so we didn't need to leave for anything. Worked great for us.
We stayed only briefly as our flight arrived late in the evening but I would definitely stay there again. The rooms were beautiful clean and spacious!
Very comfortable
I stayed for the 1st and last day of my vacation. The first night was okay. The last night I stayed the room was very very nice I loved it. The next time I come to Costa Rica I will absolutely stay here again. The price was excellent for the room.
Great hotel, friendly staff, huge rooms, clean, a/c, yummy ceviche at restaurant

Today is my last day in Istanbul. You get visa on arival much easier that in India.If guys stay in Sultanahmet area most places to visit are in walking distance. For your father you can get inexpensive taxi on every step of your way in most place of attraction and infront of any hotel or guest house in Sultanahmet area.Sultanahmed and most of Turkey is hilly. It may be difficult for your father to walk.Lots of inexpensive places are nicer than the expensive places. I am checking out of a place name Agora. Very nice. May is a nice time of the yr for temperature but kind of crowded. For youself. you may want to visit greek islands only about an hr boat ride. Now for me all were closed.Bring Euro and change in the airport or in the city = not that much different in rates.Visa fee they only take in Euro or $

The present invention relates to an illuminated indicator gauge, and, more particularly, to such a gauge utilizing one or more light conducting prisms to illuminate the dial and pointer.
Since many indicator gauges are used in surroundings which receive very little light, either naturally or artificially, various arrangements have been made to illuminate such gauges so that they can be easily read. Such gauges are generally provided with their own light sources and the light from the source is directed by a suitable arrangement in such a manner so as to illuminate the indicia on the dial face and to illuminate the position of the indicator pointer. In many types of gauges, such as electrical gauges or instruments, the electrical movement is fastened directly to the rear surface of the dial, so as to block light from the light source from passing through the dial in the area covered by the movement. Thus, a low level lighting exists in this area of the dial which causes difficulties to arise in clearly and quickly reading the dial. This low level lighting has a further disadvantage in that other portions of the dial are illuminated at higher levels. This non-uniform level of lighting across the dial makes it difficult to read accurately.
One of the objects of the invention is to provide an improved lighting arrangement for indicator gauges.
Another of the objects of the present invention is to provide improved illumination of the dial and pointer of an electrical or other type of gauge or instrument.
According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided an illuminated gauge which may comprise a casing having an open end closed by a viewing window and a translucent dial spaced inwardly of the window. A movement is mounted within the casing inwardly of the dial and is operatively connected to a pointer disposed between the dial and viewing window. The light source is within the casing at the rear portion thereof and is located laterally of the movement. A light conducting prism is disposed between the movement and the dial and has an upper beveled edge surface so that light received from the light source is reflected laterally through the prism by the beveled surface to illuminate the pointer and the underside of the dial.
In a further aspect, an annular second prism may be positioned around the periphery of the dial, said second prism being provided with a beveled surface to reflect light downwardly in front of the dial so as to illuminate the dial and pointer.
Other objects, advantages and features of the present invention will become apparent from the accompanying description and drawings, which are merely exemplary.
In the drawings:
FIG. 1 is a front elevational view of an instrument incorporating the present invention with a portion of the viewing window being cut away;
FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along the line 2--2 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a front elevational view of the light conducting prism in the instrument of FIGS. 1 and 2;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along the line 4--4 of FIG. 3;
FIG. 5 is a view similar to that of FIG. 2 but showing only a portion thereof in section and enlarged scale and diagramatically showing the paths followed by the light;
FIG. 6 is a view similar to that of FIG. 1 showing a modification of the present invention;
FIG. 7 is a sectional view taken along the line 7--7 of FIG. 6;
FIG. 8 is a view similar to that of FIG. 7 but only of the front portion thereof and in enlarged scale showing diagramatically the paths of light reflected by the prisms;
FIG. 9 is a elevational view of the annular prism used in the modification of FIGS. 6-8; and
FIG. 10 is an enlarged view of a pointer.
Proceeding next to the drawings wherein like reference symbols indicate the same parts throughout the various views, a specific embodiment and modification of the present invention will be described in detail. The invention may be applied to various types of instruments, such as, but not limited to, voltmeters, ammeters, pressure gauges, etc.
As may be seen in FIGS. 1-5, there is generally indicated at 10 an instrument which in the form shown is an electrical indicator which comprises a cylindrical casing 11 having a closed rear end 12 and an open front end 13. The open end 13 is closed by a transparent viewing window 14 retained in position by a gasket or sealing ring 15 which has a portion 16 seated within an annular groove 17 formed adjacent the open end of the casing.
Inwardly of the window 14 is a translucent dial 18 upon which are positioned indicia 19 (FIG. 1) for indicating a predetermined condition. In the embodiment of FIG. 1 and merely as an example, the gauge can be that typical for a fuel level gauge. An electrical movement 20 (FIG. 2) is located in the lower portion of the casing 11 and is mounted on the rear wall 12 by means of nuts 21 threaded upon screws 22 extending from the movement 20 through suitable openings in the rear wall 12.
The movement 20 is operatively connected through a shaft 23 to pointer 24 which is located between the viewing window 14 and dial face 18 so as to move over the dial face adjacent to the scale of indicia 19.
Also mounted in the rear wall 12 of the casing is a light source 25 which emits light rays indicated by the arrows 26. The light source 25 is located in the rear portion of the casing 11 and above or laterally positioned with respect to the movement 20.
Mounted in the space between the dial 18 and front face of the movement 20 is a light conducting prism 27 having an upper beveled edge 28. The prism 27 is positioned in contact with the respective surfaces of the dial 18 and the front face of the movement 20. The prism 27 is shaped so as to cover most of the area of the dial face 18, and the shape of the prism can be best seen in FIG. 3.
The beveled edge 28 is located above the movement 20 so as to be in the path of the light 26 emanating from the light source 25. The beveled edge 28 slopes downwardly toward the dial face, such as shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, so that light rays are reflected downwardly from the beveled edge 28 through the prism as indicated by the arrows 29. The light so reflected lights up that portion of the dial face which is blocked from the light source by the movement 20. If desired, light rays also are deflected outwardly through the dial face 18 so as to illuminate the pointer which can be of plastic. In this form, the light rays are directed toward the base of the pointer so that they will be reflected upwardly or outwardly through the pointer and illuminate the same.
A further advantage of this lighting arrangement is that there is no necessity to slot the electrical gauge housing to provide a space for a light conducting member. Also, the present gauge is less expensive to manufacture over previous designs using molded dials since the dial can now be screened in multiple on a transparent plastic sheet and then blanked.
The rear surface of the prism indicated at 30 has a translucent matte finish. This provides a better lighting effect when the light rays 26 pass through this surface. The dial 18 and the prism 27 can now be fastened directly to movement 20.
The beveled surface 28 of the prism effectively backlights the dial in the area where the movement is attached and where no direct light from the source can enter. Also, as mentioned, the additional light conducted through the prism aids in lighting the plastic rear lighted pointer.
In the modification of FIGS. 6 - 9, a second prism 31 is employed and corresponding elements are indicated by the same numerals with a prime, i.e. 28'. The prism 31 is in the shape of a cylinder having a relatively short axial length and having its front edge beveled at 32. The rear edge of the cylinder 33 is directed toward the light source and receives light indicated by the arrows 26'. Annular prism 31 is retained in position by a suitable sealing ring or bezel 34.
In a manner similar to the gauge of FIGS. 1 to 5, the prism 27' lights the legend and indicia on dial 18'. In addition, beveled surface 32 on the annular prism 31 reflects light downwardly as indicated by the arrow 35 to illuminate the pointer 24'. Thus, this modification provides a separate source of illumination. The prism 27' in this modification is thus employed primarily to illuminate the indicia on the dial 18' although some light will escape from the dial to backlight the pointer 24' as indicated by the arrows 36. Also, the pointer could be similar to that of FIG. 10 but in the form shown in FIGS. 6 to 9, it is not.
Thus, it can be seen that the present invention has provided a simple yet effective structure for the illuminating of an electrical or mechanical gauge utilizing an inexpensive structure. In one embodiment, a prism is used to illuminate both the legend on the dial and the pointer. In the modification, the prism below the dial is used to illuminate primarily the legend on the dial and a second prism is utilized to primarily illuminate the pointer.
Where the terms "upwardly," "upper," or "downwardly" are used herein, such refer especially to the forms shown but include other directions in accordance with positioning of the parts in the casing.
It will be understood that various details of construction and arrangement of parts may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention except as defined in the appended claims.

Taking an A77 on safari - do I need a bigger lens?
Apr 24, 2014
Hi everyone,
Hopefully someone here has some experience with safaris or wildlife photography and will be able to give me some guidance. I'm off to Kenya in the autumn and have five days in the Maasai Mara game park, so I'm planning on taking some wildlife photos.
I have an A77 (which is still a great camera) and a Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 G lens as well as the Sony SAL20TC 2.0x tele converter. Am I going to be able to get any good shots with this set-up, or do I need to sit down, take a deep breath and look at a longer lens? If so, which one would be a good bet?
Also, any hints and tips about getting the best shots would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Sony SLT-A77

Skip to comments.In Maine, It Doesn't Pay to be a Man
Posted on 02/01/2010 9:08:35 AM PST by FreeManDC
Practically everyone in town knows Amy Dugas is a serial batterer. But the Maine criminal justice system keeps finding ways to keep her from facing the music.
In 2004 Amy assaulted her husband Mark in their home in Waldoboro. When the police officer came to arrest her, she kicked him in the groin. The judge released her on bail, ordering her to refrain from using weapons. Four months later she stabbed Mark with a foot-long kitchen knife, fatally severing his pulmonary artery. At the trial, she got away with the trusty I-feared-for-my-life alibi.
Two years later Dugas spent 125 days in jail following an attack on a male friend. In 2007 she was arrested again, this time for assaulting Brian Pelletier, her new husband of three weeks.
Each time, Amy Dugas was let off the hook with a chivalrous slap on the wrist, even though many were demanding she do hard time at the state pen.
No doubt about it, Maines domestic violence industry has friends in high places. One of them is Mary Kellett, Assistant District Attorney for the Bar Harbor area. Think of her as Michael Nifong on steroids.
Inspired by feminist Catherine Comins sneer, Men who are unjustly accused of rape can sometimes gain from the experience, Kellett has taken to prosecuting every allegation of sexual misconduct, often ignoring glaring inconsistencies in the womans account or clear evidence of consensual activity: http://www.fillerfund.com/marykellett.htm
In one case, Kellett summed up the case to the jury with this comment, there has been no evidence presented to you as the jury that would suggest that a sexual act hadnt occurred on those dates, revealing a sad ignorance of the legal principle that the burden of proof falls on the plaintiff.
In another trial, Kellett did not present a shred of physical evidence, prompting the defense attorney to comment, We were just very surprised with the only evidence the state had, that they brought these charges at all.
Unfortunately for her prosecutorial victims, none of them play lacrosse at an exclusive university or have wealthy parents to hire high-powered attorneys. As a result, many have spent months in jail awaiting their trial.
It gets worse.
Maine now has a law enforcement policy that says in effect if a woman punches the living daylights out of her husband, somehow it must be the mans fault. Identifying Predominant Aggressors in Domestic Violence Cases is a training guide put together by the Maine Criminal Justice Academy: http://www.maine.gov/dps/mcja/docs/Mandatory-Law/Predominant%20Aggressor.doc
A little background: It is well known that many domestic violence incidents are mutual in nature she slaps him, he shoves back. One study by Centers for Disease Control researcher Daniel Whitaker reported fully half of all incidents of partner aggression are mutual. More often than not, its the woman who instigated the incident.
So when the police arrive on the scene, they need to decide who to stick in the Paddy Wagon. For years, police used the commonsense yardstick, Who started the fight? But feminists dont cotton to that approach because, truth be told, too many women were getting arrested.
So they reached into their bag of tricks and abracadabra! Predominant aggressor magically appeared in the law enforcement lexicon. Any guesses who the predominant aggressor might be?
Before I give away the punch line, you may want to see for yourself the Ms.-Information that the Predominant Aggressor curriculum bandies around: 1. The idea that abuse can be mutual is a misconception (I say so, it must be true.)
2. DV is the leading cause of injuries to women between the ages of 15-44 in the U.S. (Its also a proven fact that the moon is made of Swiss cheese and the 9/11 attacks were masterminded by the CIA.)
3. Even if the violence is mutual, its bad to arrest both parties because the batterer gains more power. (Dont ask to see the research. Im the one with the mic and Ill give you the boot if you start to ask questions.)
Then the curriculum goes on to enumerate the types of violence that it whimsically classifies as defensive: 1. Face scratches 2. Eye gouges 3. Bites to arm
Go ahead, ladies, scratch his face and gouge his eyes out. You can always say it was in self-defense and now theyll have to take you at your word.
Patrick Henry College professor Stephen Baskerville has recently issued a stunning indictment of our contemporary criminal justice system, lambasting it as a Feminist Gulag. Now in Maine, a man can be killed in cold blood without consequence to the perpetrator, prosecuted for rape with the flimsiest of evidence, or framed in a partner dispute on account of his sex.
And whatever happened to the equal protection clause of the U.S. Constitution?
Liberals and muslims destroy everything they touch!
y'know i always believe that domestic violence goes both ways. women can be and sometimes are just as hateful and abusive as some men. why do they not get the same harsh punishments as those abusive men? because she will say the man was the dangerous one and she was defending herself. why are these claims not investigated thoroughly? why is the law biased to let women commit murder but send men to prison for saying the wrong thing? equal protection under the law indeed.
"Family violence" is also one of today's PC crimes, directed at men basically. I see this in our local County Court often. Usually based on verbal testimony of a woman "victim" with no supporting physical or medical evidence or witnesses.
Do I condone violence within the family? Of course not! But I have seen cuss fights (verbal arguments) result in the man's arrest. We need balance here.
Statistically, the woman starts the domestic violence and the man finishes it.
Good article — bad headline. Should be "it pays to be a woman" — not "it doesn't pay to be a man". Fundamentally, it shouldn't "pay" to be a man. All that is expected is equality ... it shouldn't pay to be a member of any particular demographic.
Obviously this poor SOB was also....... WHITE....
Doesn't anyone think anymore?
First, you don't provide proof of a general condition by a single example. So you can't condemn Maine's system by showing how if failed in one case.
Second, whatever may be Kellett's virtues, failings, or outright misconduct, the generalized smear presented about her actions are little more than gossip.
Finally, by setting up specific examples of domestic violence stats and then belittling them without addressing either their accuracy or merit, the author does little but diminish himself.
The author may be 100% right on all points. He may be a visionary. But, it would be luck. All it would have taken to make his case would have been a little critical thought and facts, not opinion. Sad.
Old Korean saying - "When the hen starts to crow like a rooster, the home is finished".
"Where's Waldoboro"?
"First, you dont provide proof of a general condition by a single example."
The Amy Dugan case is one example of a woman being treated too leniently, but the comments by Kellett (two examples were given) are a good indicator of a bad prosecutor. It took one case for Mike Nifong to lose his job. It looks long past due for Kellett to lose hers.
Still, I'll never understand why men or women will get into a relationship with a person with this kind of history. Just like the Peterson case with the four dead wives & the guy has another girlfriend!
Okay. We won't condemn the system up there for that one case.
We'll just split it into three cases, the initial assault where she attacked the police officer, the murder four months later, and the battery of her next unfortunate boyfriend two years later.
Now we have three separate cases to buttress the point.
I will say that when she moved to Tennessee, at least those people had the common sense to be horrified that she could do this, be released and go to live in their state.
I live in Massachusetts, and our state is much worse than Maine in this respect, so bad that a group sees fit to have to put banners on highway overpasses demanding justice for men in the legal system up here.
Waldoboro is in The Mid-Coast Maine area, near Rockland Maine.
Mrs. NHD
I took a criminal justice class one summer for elective credit, and it was taught by a raving feminist. Our textbook, if you can call it that, was the most unbelieveable over-the-top, Gloria Allred-inspired, NOW-worshipping piece of propaganda that I have EVER seen. The author's central message was that no woman was ever responsible for a crime; men were the the culprits in all situations.
Waldoboro is in the 'mid-coast' region of Maine.
The town is on US 1, north of Brunswich, but 20 miles south of Rockland.
(winslow mills is a small community within Waldoboro, and has a 'mini-slum' reputation.)
The light house on the Maine quarter is in Bristol, about 20 miles away.
This sounds like one of those wacky National Organization of Men type screeds. I had a lonely neighbor once who used to send these kinds of letters to the editor of our small twon local paper once a week.
My post had nothing to do with the state of Maine and everything to do with how the article was written.
My post had nothing to do with the state of Maine and everything to do with how the article was written.
Lots more examples of Kellets failings and misconduct here from the article;
Seems Kellett is a female Mike Nefong, just like the author contends. It is easily checked if you had any interest in critical thought or in finding the truth.
I thought it was a reasonably written column about a pretty sad situation in the state of Maine. I understand that folks can be annoyed by poor writing, but this wasn't THAT extreme of an example.
He used one egregious case to indict all of Maine's domestic violence handling. You can't use one small example to tar a whole system. Following that logic here is a parallel example of how the Left does that to the military:
5 soldiers rape a girl and kill her family in Iraq. Therefore, all soldiers in Iraq are murdering child rapists. One example proves the rule. That is the logic behind Brian Depalma's 2007 movie Redacted. He wanted to find one example to tar all the rest. It matched his thinking already (Casualties of War=Redacted Part I).
When describing a D.A. as a Nifong on steroids he gives gossip about cases without specifying the cases or providing any facts. He just provides hearsay as if it were facts. This is very weak indeed. If there is a lot more on this D.A., he could have cited facts instead. My original observation stands that regardless of whether she was good, bad, or corrupt, this author didn't make the case, he weakened it.
He then goes on to dismiss Maine's domestic violence policy by stating a position by them, and then ridiculing that position with hyperbole, but not with a factual rebuttal. He either can't refute the facts or he was lazy.
It was an extreme example of poor thinking. Had he an editor it should have been sent back and totally rewritten. Because it is readable as is doesn't make it worth the meaningless death of electrons. For all I know the guy is a visionary on a major problem in Maine. He just couldn't put it in writing.
I do, silly. That is why the article was such a disappointment. Which is why I commented. Which is what you should have gotten out of it. Which is so sad you posted what you posted.
I understand, thank you for the clarification.
Well...I sort of know where Waldoboro is.
Thing is...I was trying to be a smart ass.
Maybe I should have posted;
"Where's Waldo(boro)?"
No doubt about it, Maine's domestic violence industry has friends in high places. One of them is Mary Kellett, Assistant District Attorney for the Bar Harbor area. Think of her as Michael Nifong on steroids.Thanks FreeManDC.
The SHAME of all this is, that in the United States at least, MOST domestic violence is committed by WOMEN against men! But the Mighty Media Monolith has so far covered it up.
Duh......good one. Just too obvious.

I want to integrate the product of two time- and frequency-shifted Hermite functions using scipy.integrate.quad.
However, since large order-polynomials are included, there are numerical errors occuring. Here's my Code:
import numpy as np
import scipy.integrate
import scipy.special as sp
from math import pi
def makeFuncs():
# Create the 0th, 4th, 8th, 12th and 16th order hermite function
return [lambda t, n=n: np.exp(-0.5*t**2)*sp.hermite(n)(t) for n in np.arange(5)*4]
def ambgfun(funcs, i, k, tau, f):
# Integrate f1(t)*f2(t+tau)*exp(-j2pift) over t from -inf to inf
f1 = funcs[i]
f2 = funcs[k]
func = lambda t: np.real(f1(t) * f2(t+tau) * np.exp(-1j*(2*pi)*f*t))
return scipy.integrate.quad(func, -np.inf, np.inf)
def main():
f = makeFuncs()
print "A00(0,0):", ambgfun(f, 0, 0, 0, 0)
print "A01(0,0):", ambgfun(f, 0, 1, 0, 0)
print "A34(0,0):", ambgfun(f, 3, 4, 0, 0)
if __name__ == '__main__':
The hermite functions are orthogonal, thus all integrals should be equal to zero. However, they are not, as the output shows:
A00(0,0): (1.7724538509055159, 1.4202636805184462e-08)
A01(0,0): (8.465450562766819e-16, 8.862237123626351e-09)
How can I make this calculation more accurate? The hermite-function from scipy contain a weights variable which should be used for Gaussian Quadrature, as given in the documentation (http://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/special.html#orthogonal-polynomials). However, I have not found a hint in the docs how to use these weights.
I hope you can help :)
Thanks, Max

I have a div thats about 200px x 40px. Sometimes this block will contain a single line of text and other times it will contain two lines. In the case that it contains 2 lines of text, I have adjusted the line height so that it looks balanced inside of the div. However, in the case that there is a single line of text, the text lines up with the top of the div, leaving the bottom empty.
Instead, I want the single line of text to appear vertically centered inside of the div. What is the best way to set this up? Should I place the text inside of a secondary element like
<p> and then attempt apply
vertical-align: middle? It seems like there should be a simpler, more streamlined way to accomplish this. Any Ideas?

Saginaw Township, MI 48609
Covenant Kids half marathon, 5k run/walk, and 1 mile will highlight several of the bay region's nicest features. This half marathon is a certified course by USATF and is flat and fast for those of you looking to PR. Heading south athletes will pass through the Kluck plant nursery and follow country roads to the Saginaw Valley Rail Trail. Enjoy the wonderful trail system as you loop through the township's countryside before making your way back to the high school. Without the gracious welcome of the Saginaw County Rail Trail and Kluck's Nursery we would not be able to offer such a scenic and pristine race course. More info on the Saginaw Country Trail here. 5k run/walk athletes will follow the half marathon athletes before taking a north on Van Wormer Rd with a quick loop through the neighborhoods just north of the high school. 1 mile kids and families enjoy a flat out and back "fun run" on O'Hern Rd.

Can Non-Legislative Policy Statements Support Overturning an Arbitration Award? After the Court of Appeal reversed the judgment which confirmed an arbitration award upholding the engagement agreement and finding that counsel was entitled to all of its fees, the Court granted review on the following issues: (1) May a court rely on non-legislative expressions of public policy (i.e., California Rules of Professional Conduct, Rule 3-310), to overturn an arbitration award on illegality grounds? (2) Can a sophisticated consumer of legal services, represented by counsel, give its informed consent to an advance waiver of conflicts of interest? (3) Does a conflict of interest that undisputedly caused no damage to the client and did not affect the value or quality of an attorney's work automatically (i) require the attorney to disgorge all previously paid fees, and (ii) preclude the attorney from recovering the reasonable value of the unpaid work? Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton, LLP v. J-M Manufacturing Co., Inc., S232946 (opinion below B256314, formerly 244 Cal.App.4th 590, mod. 245 Cal.App.4th 63b). Review was granted 4/27/16
Can an Agricultural Employee Rely on the Statutory "Mandatory Mediation and Conciliation" Process? After the Fifth District Court of Appeal reversed a decision of the Agricultural Labor Relations Board and denied a petition for peremptory writ of mandate, the Court granted review on the following issues: (1) Does the statutory "Mandatory Mediation and Conciliation" process (Lab. Code, §§ 1164-1164.13) violate the equal protection clauses of the state and federal Constitutions? (2) Do the "Mandatory Mediation and Conciliation" statutes effect an unconstitutional delegation of legislative power? (3) May an employer oppose a certified union's request for referral to the "Mandatory Mediation and Conciliation" process by asserting that the union has "abandoned" the bargaining unit? Gerawan Farming, Inc. v. Agricultural Labor Relations Bd., S227243, (opinion below F068526, formerly 236 Cal.App.4th 1024). Review was granted 8/21/17.
Under FAA, Are Statutory Claims for Public Injunctive Relief Subject to Mandatory Arbitration? After the Court of Appeal reversed an order denying a petition to compel arbitration, the Court granted review on following issue: Does the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.), as interpreted in AT&T Mobility LLC v. Concepcion (2011) 563 U.S. 321, preempt the California rule (Broughton v. Cigna Healthplans (1999) 21 Cal.4th 1066; Cruz v. PacifiCare Health Systems, Inc. (2003) 30 Cal.4th 303) that statutory claims for public injunctive relief are not subject to compulsory private arbitration? McGill v. Citibank, N.A., S224086, (opinion below G049838, formerly 232 Cal.App.4th 753). Review was granted 4/1/15.
Who Determines Whether an Agreement Provides for Class Arbitration?
After the Court of Appeal found that the arbitrator should decide, and reversed an order in a civil action, the Court granted review on the following issue: Does the trial court or the arbitrator decide whether an arbitration agreement provides for class arbitration if the agreement itself is silent on the issue? Sandquist v. Lebo Automotive, Inc., S220812 (opinion below B244412, formerly 228 Cal.App.4th 65). Review was granted 11/12/14. Update 1/14/15: Review granted in Network Capital Funding Corp. v.

homebred throughout the drought, sent Don Perico to a clear lead early in his
second try over the unique downhill layout, and he gamely held on to resist

thought that the earlier experience was critical in Don Perico's
turnaround at odds of 8-1.
"The last time he was a little green," Rosario said. "He
was looking around too much. Today, he was much more professional. I just let
him go. Sometimes when horses are doing something for the first time like in
his last race, they aren't familiar with what they are doing, so they
look around too much."
Starspangled Heat, ridden by Corey Nakatani, edged
Husband's Folly, with Mike Smith aboard, by one-half length for the place
as both closed strongly. Dixieland Blues, the 5-2 favorite, checked in fifth in
a field of 10, one-half length behind 3-1 Dance With Gable.
The winner, trained by Marty Jones, paid $18.40,
$9.60 and $6.20. The mutuels on Starspangled Heat were $8.80 and $6.40.
Husband's Folly paid $5.60 to show. The winning purse of $34,800 elevated

Scammer Comes Clean to Victoria Police Seargant [VIDEO]
You've heard of the scam...you get a call from someone claiming to be from the IRS. The caller says you owe taxes for whatever reason, and the payment must be made immediately. They go on to say that you need to pay with a Green Dot card. The problem is, the IRS would never call you demanding money. They (or any other official making such a request) would always contact you in writing.
Watch what happens when one of Victoria's own boys in blue, Sgt. Chris Guerra happens to get one of these calls, the scammer comes clean! Nice work, Sgt. Guerra!

The Postgraduate Diploma in Arts Subjects (PGDipArts) requires two semesters of full-time, or its equivalent in part-time, study. It entails a structured programme of postgraduate coursework and, in some instances, a piece of supervised research that counts for one or two of the required papers.

The Diploma can be awarded in any of the subjects listed below, although a candidate may be permitted to study combinations of these. The primary aim of the study programme is to expose a candidate to advanced knowledge and skills in the major subject of the Bachelor's degree.
Graduates are employed in administration, business, education, government, industry and journalism where their advanced knowledge of an academic area, ability to solve problems, research and writing skills are valued. It is also a recognised qualification for admission as a candidate for the Master of Arts (MA) and, if a dissertation is included, the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD).
