Shuto Kousoku Max (6) 1996 [FULL MOVIE ENG SUB]
Megalopolis Expressway Trial Max (6th Movie) (1996) Full Movie English Subtitle. Shuto Kōsoku champion Shikiba Tatsuya (R33 GT-R) travels to Osaka to challenge Osaka Kanjō (loop) champion Sendō (JZA70 Supra). Sendō crashes during the race, writing off his car, and ending up in hospital. The opening credits roll, featuring Osaka's Tsūtenkaku. Tsuchiya Keiichi (NSX Type R) tells his mechanic Kazuki (also Shikiba's friend) he must give up street racing. Kazuki asks Shikiba to race one last time. Two months pass. Sendō leaves hospital in his new JZA80 Supra to find Shikiba in Tokyo. Shikiba has given up racing, and spends time looking at the wrecked shell of Kazuki's R33 GT-R. It transpires that Kazuki died during their final race. Sendo finds Shikiba, but Shikiba will not race him, giving him an Akira Sudō ticket as compensation. Akira Sudō's performances are intercut with some of the races/dialogues. Shikiba accepts a final challenge from a Nissan Z32 driver who has also just got out of hospital. When Shikiba passes the spot where Kazuki died he cannot finish the race, and drives to look at Kazuki's GT-R again. He finds Tsuchiya there, who criticises him strongly, and challenges him to race on the track. He races but is no match for Tsuchiya. Tsuchiya tells him street racing is useless, and if he can't make it on the track, he's unfit for the wheel. Shikiba takes to the tōge in anger, and spins. Flashback to Kazuki's death. Shikiba finally returns home two days after the race to find Sendo staying with his sister. They have a fist fight, Shikiba leaves. Flashback showing that Shikiba's R33 GT-R was originally Kazuki's, Shikiba (SW20 MR2) won it from him in a race on their first meeting. Kazuki was so impressed that he asked Shikiba to help him create a legend using the GT-R, defeating all champions on roads across Japan, then moving into professional circuit racing, with Kazuki as the tuner. Flashback ends. Kazuki's bereaved girlfriend Kaoru harasses Shikiba on the docks. Meanwhile Sendō challenges and defeats the new 300ZX Shuto Kōsoku champion. Tsuchiya and Shikiba's sister independently tell Kaoru that Kazuki's dreams are still important. Kaoru finds Shikiba moping near Kazuki's GT-R and calls him a coward for giving up on Kazuki's dream. She gives him the tuned ROM Kazuki was working on before his death. Shikiba says he will race the Shuto Kousoku one more time. He challenges Sendō. Shikiba and Kaoru prepare the GT-R. Sendo and Shikiba's sister prepare the Supra. During the race, Shikiba finds the car has less power. Eventually he realises the power band has moved higher so adjusts his style and wins. Later he returns to the circuit to find Kaoru and Tsuchiya. While there, Tsuchiya offers Shikiba another race, but declines, saying that he has already raced him, and knows how it's like to race on the track. He then gives Kaoru the GT-R keys saying he will not give up on Kazuki's dream. The GT-R is Kazuki's dream, he feels it should be with Kaoru. Shikiba, is about to leave, but Tsuchiya challenges him for the last time. Sendō and Shikiba's sister turn up to watch, Shikiba's sister is now interested in Sendō. Tsuchiya lends Shikiba an NSX, and the movie ends with the NSXs drifting around each other, around the circuit. 首藤kousokuマックス1996フルムービー英語字幕

Welcome to Cannock Chase
Cannock Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB)- a landscape of inspiration
In England and Wales , there is a huge variety of scenery and landscapes, from dramatic coasts to remote mountains. Those landscapes considered most valuable are designated as National Parks or Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONBs). These landscapes are protected by law and managed to maintain their special character for now and the future.
Cannock Chase was designated as an AONB in 1958 because of its beautiful landscape, its wildlife and its history. Cannock Chase is the largest surviving area of lowland heathland in the Midlands . Lowland heath is an internationally scarce and threatened wildlife habitat. The AONB also has extensive areas of forest and woodland along with areas of designed parkland, sand and gravel quarrying and mixed agriculture.
Cannock Chase and its associated animal and plant communities are part of an historic landscape dating back thousands of years. Wild deer still roam the Chase and are probably descended from the original herd introduced in Norman times for hunting purposes.
There is now considerable economic and recreational pressure on this beautiful landscape and the new Cannock Chase AONB Management Plan aims to ensure the right balance is maintained to conserve and enhance the area whilst maintaining it as a living, working environment.
Latest NewsDementia Friendly Strategy launches
Cannock Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty launched its Dementia Friendly Strategy and series of walks at a free event last month. The Cannock Chase AONB team, with the help of Carers Association Southern Staffordshire, has developed a Dementia Friendly Strategy.

About NWRGeek
Hi. I'm Nathan Coram - an 8th grade aspiring meteorologist in northeast Massachusetts.
By: NWRGeek, 1:49 PM GMT on May 27, 2013
Happy Memorial Day to all. As we enjoy this day off as the unofficial start of summer, firstly I'd like to take a moment to say thank you to all of the veterans who have served for this country in the past and those soldiers who serve now for defending our freedoms, especially those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. I remember my late great-grandfather, who was a radio man in I believe World War II, who passed away in 2011 who I still miss a lot. So think about the reason many of us have today off - to honor those who serve and have served and especially those who have made the ultimate sacrifice, NOT to get an early start onto your vacation and cookout season.
Anyways, it looks to be the pick of the weekend today. After a crummy weekend today will be a significant warmup. Skies will be sunny regionwide with highs generally in the upper 60s, with mid 60s in the higher elevations of southwest New Hampshire, southern Vermont and western Massachusetts as well as the immediate Gloucester area in eastern Massachusetts. Expect highs to be in the lower 70s in the I-91 corridor of western Massachusetts and the Concord, NH area as well as the mid 70s across the Merrimack Valley from about Manchester, NH southward, including much of Hillsborough, far southern Rockingham, northern Middlesex and northern Essex counties. Winds will be northwest at 10 to 15 mph, with gusts of 10 to 20 mph mid day--15 to 25 mph in the higher elevations as well as in northern areas. Looking ahead tomorrow seems to be nice with highs in the mid to upper 70s with slightly less wind and similar sky cover. Wednesday there's a low chance of severe storms as a warm front moves through with highs again in the mid 70s and cloudy skies, with general showers and storms more likely. Make sure your air conditioning is in by Wednesday night because highs Thursday through Saturday will be in the lower 90s with lows higher than 65 -- in the upper 60s and lower 70s -- expected.
By: NWRGeek, 3:49 PM GMT on May 03, 2013
Good morning! After a nice day yesterday with highs easily reaching the upper 70s and lower 80s across most of the area before a backdoor cold front moved through mid-afternoon yesterday quickly dropping temperatures to as low as the upper 40s. The effects of that front are still being felt today as the eastern areas--as far east as central Massachusetts and easily most of southern New Hampshire--will only reach the lower 60s with higher elevations seeing the upper 50s for highs today. The coastline will see the worst of the remnants with highs in the lower 50s, with a few locales struggling to see 55. However, western Massachusetts and southern Vermont will see highs generally in the upper 60s and lower 70s. Central and west-central New Hampshire including Concord will likely see highs in the mid to upper 60s today. Skies will be generally mostly sunny today across the region, with east winds at 5 to 15 mph in the interior and east winds 10 to 20 mph near the coast.
We'll rebound this weekend* with highs in the lower 70s ruling most of the region tomorrow, with highs in the upper 60s in the higher elevations, along with sunny skies.
*Unless you're at the coast, where the sunny skies will still be there but highs will be in the mid to upper 50s tomorrow. Yeah, the coast just stinks this time of year.
The whole area will see light northeast winds tomorrow, which will become around 5 to 10 mph, with northeast 5 to 15 mph expected at the coast. Yes, the coast is terribly cooler during the spring. Thanks seabreeze.
Sunday will feature highs in the lower to mid 70s in the interior and mid 70s across parts of southern Vermont. Higher elevations in central Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire will see highs in the upper 60s and the coast will see highs around 60 at the immediate coast and highs in the lower 60s just away from the coast. Sunny skies will be over the region, with only an isolated cloud or two possible. The region will see light winds. Even at the coast. But Sunday evening, we'll see 5 to 10 mph southeast winds in the interior and southeast winds at 10 to 20 mph along the coast.
No rain is in sight until at least Tuesday where there's a chance of rain across southern Vermont and western Massachusetts..but only at 10%. An elevated rain chance is coming next Wednesday but not as much. The lack of rain, along with gusty winds and relative humidity of 30 to 40 percent, will cause an elevated brush fire danger. Fire officials discourage open burning! The majority of wildland fires are due to escaped fires from open burning by homeowners. All open burning needs a permit. In addition you should clear the area around a pile of all flammable material, never leave the fire unattended, have a hose and tools such as a shovel or rake on hand, burn only natural vegatative material, and if things get out of control immediately call 911.
Have a great weekend!

South Island 8-Day TourProduct ID: 52709
From £2,805.42 per personBook now
- Experience the true elements of New Zealand's South Island over 8 days
- Become completely immersed in the heart of its mountain ranges and let their beauty guide you forwards on your hike
- Jump in a sea kayak and splash around the warm bays of the Abel Tasman National Park
- Sample local cuisine from restaurants in the cities and towns you stay in
The supplier has chosen excellent quality hotels and lodges and all rooms have ensuite bathrooms. Every place you stay in has something special to offer and your evenings will be just as enjoyable as your days spent outdoors. Wonderful meals are included giving you an opportunity to sample the local cuisine from the restaurants in the cities and towns you'll stay in.
Day 1 Nelson – Abel Tasman National Park, 11.7km/4 hours hiking
Your guide will meet you at the hotel before driving to Nelson airport to collect those walkers that are doing the full tour and are on a flight from Wellington. Sit back and enjoy the picturesque drive to Kaiteriteri. This seaside village is the gateway to the popular Abel Tasman National Park, and a trendy vacation spot for kiwis. Board a water taxi for a jaunt into the heart of the National Park. Step ashore at Anchorage and follow the famed Abel Tasman coastal track through native forests and along golden sand beaches. The lovely clear fresh waters of Cleopatra's Pool may tempt you to take a dip or for those more daring a slide down the naturally formed hydro-slide! After passing through Torrent Bay a well-formed trail leads you up and over a gentle ridge into Bark Bay where you'll will meet the water taxi for a return journey to Kaiteriteri. On the return to Nelson there is time to freshen up before strolling downtown for dinner, the town center is well known for its vibrant and arty atmosphere. Rutherford Hotel, Nelson (Lunch, Dinner)
Day 2 Nelson –Punakaiki, 6km/3 hour hiking
On the way to the West Coast stop for a remarkable hike to marvel at natural flames which have been burning since the 1920's. Access this phenomena with a local guide over a privately owned working deer farm. Unlike the Eternal Flames of the Chimera in Turkey these flames are surrounded by lush tree ferns and beech forest. A cup of 'billy tea' and hot cakes prepared over the flames gives this experience a distinctly kiwi flavour. Continue your journey alongside the mighty Buller River as it cuts through the massive wilderness of the upper South Island, arriving on the coast at Westport. Take a short stroll at Cape Foulwind to view a colony of New Zealand fur seals playfully splashing around in the rock pools. Head south to catch the sunset at Punakaiki and visit a local pub for dinner. Punakaiki Resort, Punakaiki (All meals)
Day 3 Punakaiki, 11km/4 hours hiking
Hike the Inland Pack Track from Punakaiki to Pororari. This historic route was once used by prospectors and miners to avoid the immense coastal cliffs while travelling the West Coast. Pass through deep limestone canyons, towering rainforests and groves of Nikau Palms. You may not be able to resist a speedy swim in one of the many deep clear pools you pass on the way! After lunch hike along the Truman track to reach stunning waterfalls, sea cliffs and wild beaches. And of course no visit to Punakaiki is complete without a trip to the Pancake Rocks and blowholes. Walk at high tide when the blowholes are most impressive, blasting sprays of salt water skyward. Punakaiki Resort, Punakaiki (All meals)
Day 4 Punakaiki – Christchurch, 4km/2 hours hiking
This remarkable highway takes you from the lush green rainforests of the West Coast and over the glaciated Southern Alps to the parched soft yellow savannahs of Canterbury. This is one of the most cleverly engineered roads in New Zealand. From Arthur's Pass hike four kilometres down to the village on a well-formed walking track. The trail has superb mountain views, thundering waterfalls, and a diverse range of alpine plants. Catch a glimpse of the colonial past as we pass Jacks Hut, a restored roadman's cottage. East of the pass, stretch your legs again and stroll around the enchanting limestone outcrops of Kura Tawhiti (Castle Hill). This area was an important meeting place and food gathering area for early Maori people. Interestingly it was also bestowed a spiritual center of the universe by the Dalai Lama when he visited in 2002. Today it is a haven for rock climbers who climb and boulder on the multitude of rock forms. Arrive in Christchurch in the mid afternoon, time to explore the inner district and see some of the innovative and exciting methods used to rebuild the heart of the city after the devastating 2011 earthquake. Camelot Motor Lodge (Breakfast, Lunch)
Day 5 Christchurch – Aoraki/Mt Cook, 2km/1 hour hiking
The mid-morning departure allows time to discover some city cafes or see one of the parks in the 'Garden City'. The drive west takes you to Lake Tekapo, famous for its stunning turquoise waters and the quaint Church of the Good Shepherd, perched daintily by the lake. Hike up through wilding conifers and tussock grasslands to the summit of Mt John. Revel in the 360-degree views of the Patagonia-like landscape. The sweeping Mackenzie basin is a sparsely populated region in the rain shadow of the Southern Alps; tawny-brown drylands, braided riverbeds, and startling glacial lakes extend to the horizon. Arrive at Aoraki/Mount Cook in the late afternoon. Relax and enjoy breathtaking views of New Zealand's highest mountain (3,724 meters). Aoraki / Mount Cook Alpine Lodge (Lunch, Dinner)
Day 6 Mt Cook, 5-8km/4 hours hiking
Hike up to Sealey Tarns and enjoy the awesome views of Mt Sefton, Mueller Glacier and across the Hooker Valley to Aoraki/Mount Cook. If you're feeling energetic, join the guide for a further climb from the tarns up to the crest of Mueller Ridge for even wider views of this magnificent alpine landscape. Those not wanting to climb to Sealey or Mueller can take the flatter option and walk up the Hooker Valley (unguided), enjoying close up views of the Mueller and Hooker Glaciers on the way. Aoraki / Mount Cook Alpine Lodge (All meals)
Day 7 Mt Cook –Wanaka, 2km/1 hour hiking
Travel up the Tasman Valley towards the longest glacier in New Zealand, the Tasman Glacier. Take a short walk through the glacial moraine and board a custom-built boat for a unique spin around the terminal lake. Like most glaciers in the world the Tasman Glacier is retreating and the terminal lake increases in size every year. This dynamic environment is dotted with icebergs of all shapes and sizes from the collapsing terminal wall of the glacier. The drive to Wanaka follows the Mackenzie country south before climbing over the tussock lands of the Lindis Pass into the southern lakes district. Wanaka is a lovely holiday town on the lake-side. Edgewater Resort, Wanaka (Breakfast, Lunch)
Day 8 Wanaka – Queenstown, 10km/4 hours hiking
A beautiful drive alongside Lake Wanaka leads you to Aspiring National Park. Hike up the Matukituki Valley beneath some fine peaks before turning up the Rob Roy side stream and climbing abruptly to the bushline. This gorgeous trail through virgin beech forest emerges into a splendid alpine basin below the bulking mass of the Rob Roy Glacier. Watch water tumble off the glacier's snout as you relax and enjoy lunch. Keep an eye out for cheeky kea (alpine parrot). You probably won't need to look too hard as these curious birds normally call in when food is around (although it's important to never offer them any tand upset their natural foraging behaviour)! After the hike grab a drink and unwind on the lawn of the famous old drover's hotel at Cardrona, before you drive over the Crown Range and into the lively scene of Queenstown. Your tour finishes here, in the late afternoon. (Breakfast, Lunch)

New Haven (AP) - Anybody who has listened to National Public Radio for the past 31 years would immediately recognize that strong, carefully unwavering voice: "Support for NPR comes from Newman's Own Foundation" or "Support for NPR comes from Novo Nordisk..."
But recently that voice vanished, replaced by a younger-sounding female. Yes, she is pleasant to listen to - but what happened to our longtime friend on the airwaves?
Until I read about him in The New Yorker in a recent issue, I didn't know his name. Nor did I have any idea he was making all those recordings in a closet in his home in Hamden.
Meet Frank Tavares, who also is a professor teaching organizational communication at Southern Connecticut State University. That's what he calls his "day job."
As a devoted NPR listener, I had to see that closet. On a recent Wednesday morning, Tavares showed me around.
"This is where I do my recording," he said, opening a tiny closet lined with hangers of coats and shirts, shelves filled with sweaters and several stacked suitcases. At the end of the closet: a chair, a little table and a microphone.
"A closet is a nice place to do this work," Tavares told me. "The clothing and the carpeting absorbs the sound, so you don't get that hollow sound, like you're recording in a bathroom."
He picked up a small sign with the message: "On air."
"This is what I put in my upstairs window when I'm recording," he said. "When my neighbor sees it, he refrains from mowing his lawn."
Tavares' understanding neighbor, Jim Fracasse, learned to understand Tavares' set schedule: 8 a.m. to about noon, every other Saturday. That's when Tavares went into his closet and recorded hundreds of funding credits that were heard all over the world.
"I'll do around 600 of them every other week," Tavares said.
He was speaking in the present tense. But in the middle of his following sentence, he caught himself and switched to the past: "I get all the scripts - or, I got all the scripts - in spreadsheets via email."
Tavares said it was last April 20 when he had "the conversation" that so many Americans have had with their bosses in recent times. A vice president at NPR told him the corporation had decided they needed to "make the workflow more efficient."
NPR officials wanted to combine Tavares' part-time job with that of another employee, so one person would do the voice work as well as handling the recording and editing.
"I was told, 'This has nothing to do with the quality of your work,"' Tavares recalled, "and "You're invited to apply for it but you must live in D.C."'
Because Tavares has established a nice life in Connecticut and has that full-time day job at SCSU and doesn't want to uproot his wife and their two sons, he never considered applying.
The new voice at NPR is Sabrina Farhi, who is 33 and until recently lived in Brooklyn. She moved to Washington to take that job.
Although Tavares, 68, is more than twice her age, he rejected any notion he is a victim of age discrimination. He added, "Change is not always a bad thing."
Tavares will be looking for other announcing gigs but, meanwhile, he will continue to use that closet for another regular endeavor of that space: writing fiction.
His short stories have appeared in assorted literary journals. He recently had published a collection of them, "The Man Who Built Boxes." He also is working on a novel.
When he was a kid, Tavares never thought about going into radio work. But as he was preparing to graduate from high school, he passed his yearbook around the classroom and one of his female classmates wrote: "With a voice like yours, you should be in radio."
He was reminded of those words when he arrived at Wheaton College in Illinois in 1962 and saw a sign-up table for the college radio station. That work led to jobs with commercial stations after he graduated. In 1972, he landed his first job with public radio, in Austin, Texas. And in 1978, he was hired to work at NPR in Washington, helping direct audience programming.
"In 1982, we started doing funding credits. Bob Edwards (then the NPR morning host) came over and told the producer, 'I can't read this.' They realized they needed a firewall between the content and the underwriting. So the producer pulled me in from the hall, and I started reading."
Tavares said he got "burned out" from the 80-hour work weeks and in 1989, accepted an offer to teach at SCSU. But he continued to do the NPR voice work.
Tavares admitted that the first time he heard Farhi's voice instead of his on the radio, "It absolutely caught me off-guard. It'll take me a little while to get used to it."
"Yes, I'll miss hearing my voice on the radio, and I'll miss being part of the daily fabric of public radio. But it'll be fine. I'm an NPR listener, and I'll get used to it."

The CNP Training Core will prepare a cadre of scientists and health professionals across the state at University of Minnesota (UMN) campuses in Crookston, Duluth, Morris, Rochester, and the Twin Cities to (1) incorporate Community Based Participatory Research (CBPR) into their cancer disparity research and (2) promote their capacity to achieve sustained career success as community-engaged health disparity researchers. Depending on the specific activity, our training and mentoring programs will include junior faculty, postdoctoral students and graduate students from the medical, social, and behavior sciences whose research interests resonate with the aims and goals of the CNP: to generate and apply knowledge that will reduce specific cancer disparities by improving prevention, early detection, diagnosis, treatment and survivorship.

Seminal Vesicles
The seminal vesicles are a pair of rounded sacks that are connected to the prostate and lie between the bladder and rectum. They are reservoirs for semen. Most of the ejaculate comes from the seminal vesicles. The fluid mixes with prostate fluid and testicle fluid in the prostate. All treatments for prostate cancer affect the ejaculate. A radical prostatectomy removes the seminal vesicles with the prostate so there is no ejaculate. The cells in the prostate that make the prostate secretions are also the same cells that develop cancer. Therefore, when the prostate is radiated, most men lose the ejaculate or the volume decreases significantly. The sexual function of erection and orgasm are not affected by surgery or radiation. Orgasm is associated with a "dry ejaculate" where the feeling of an ejaculate occurs during the orgasm without any fluid production. This condition also occurs with some medical conditions (diabetes) and some medications .
Question: Does the ejaculate return after radiation?
Answer: While some men have a very small ejaculate after radiation therapy, most men lose the ejaculate. If the ejaculate is diminished or gone, it will not return.
Question: Is there any negative effect of not having an ejaculate?
Answer: No.
Question: Is the ejaculate a risk for my partner?
Answer: No. There are no cancer cells that are transmitted. After radiation, there is no risk to the partner from the ejaculate. However, after seed implantation, it is recommended that a condom be worn for a few weeks in case a seed comes out in the ejaculate. This is extremely rare, but could happen.

In this decision, the Court of Chancery addressed a novel question of law: Whether the business judgment or the entire fairness standard of review should apply to a merger between a controlling stockholder and its subsidiary when the merger is conditioned on the approval of both an independent committee and a majority of the minority stockholders. The Court held that the business judgment standard of review will apply where (i) the controlling stockholder, from the outset, indicates it will not proceed without both protections; (ii) the committee is independent; (iii) the committee has the authority to choose its own advisors and to say no definitively; (iv) the committee meets it duty of care; (v) the vote of the minority stockholders is informed; and (vi) the minority stockholders are not coerced. In so holding, the Court determined that language in prior Delaware Supreme Court decisions, which could be read as requiring entire fairness review whenever a controlling stockholder engages in a transaction with its subsidiary, is dicta because no Delaware court has been presented with the question of which standard of review applies when both procedural protections are in place. The Court held that, on the facts presented in this case, the business judgment standard would apply and granted defendants' motion for summary judgment with respect to claims for breach of fiduciary duty.
MacAndrews & Forbes, a holding company solely owned by Ron Perelman, owned 43% of M&F Worldwide ("MFW"). MacAndrews & Forbes offered to purchase the remaining equity of MFW in a going private merger. In its initial letter of intent, MacAndrews & Forbes said it would not proceed with any going private transaction unless it was approved by both an independent committee of MFW and by a vote of the majority of MFW's stockholders who were not affiliated with MacAndrews & Forbes. The MFW board of directors established a special committee, which negotiated with MacAndrews & Forbes, achieved an increase in the offer price, and approved the going private merger. Plaintiffs, stockholders of MFW, brought suit and claimed MacAndrews & Forbes and the directors of MFW had breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the merger. The defendants brought a motion for summary judgment and argued that, because the merger had been conditioned on the approval of the special committee and the disinterested stockholders, the business judgment standard of review should apply.
The Court of Chancery first examined the special committee's process. The Court found no dispute that the committee members had hired independent legal and financial advisors or that the committee members were fully empowered to negotiate with the controlling stockholder and to decline to enter into any transaction. The Court further found that the committee members had satisfied their duty of care by meeting frequently to discuss the merger and by considering available financial information to determine whether MFW had viable options other than the merger and whether the merger was in the best interest of the minority stockholders of MFW.
The Court then addressed plaintiffs' allegations that three of the four committee members were not independent by virtue of various business and social relationships between such members and MacAndrews & Forbes. The Court determined that, because the plaintiffs failed to proffer evidence of the financial circumstances of the committee members whose independence they challenged, there was no triable issue of fact with respect to their independence. Noting that MFW's shares were listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the Court referred to the Exchange's factors governing director independence in making its decision. The Court emphasized that it was not bound by such factors, but stated that they provided useful guidance. The Court concluded that, as a matter of law, the committee members were independent.
After finding that no triable issue of fact with respect to the committee's composition and process, the Court of Chancery examined the vote of the disinterested stockholders of MFW. Because the plaintiffs did not allege any disclosure failures or coercion, the Court determined that there was no factual dispute that a majority of the minority stockholders voted in favor of the merger upon full information and without being coerced. The Court concluded that, had the merger not involved a controlling stockholder, the business judgment rule would apply. In that event, the Court noted that all claims must be dismissed unless no rational person could have believed the merger was favorable to MFW's minority stockholders. The merger consideration represented a 47% premium to the closing price of MFW's shares before the offer was made. Also, the committee's financial advisor opined as to the fairness of the merger consideration using various analyses, including a DCF analysis, and a majority of the disinterested stockholders approved the merger. For these reasons, the Court held that the merger did not constitute waste and, therefore, would satisfy the business judgment standard if applied.
The Court of Chancery determined that no Delaware court has been presented with the question whether the use of both an independent committee and approval by a majority of disinterested stockholders would result in the application of the business judgment standard of review. The Court acknowledged that language in Delaware Supreme Court decisions, such as Kahn v. Lynch Commc'n Sys. ("Lynch I"), 638 A.2d 1110 (Del. 1994), Kahn v. Tremont Corp., 694 A.2d 422 (Del. 1997), and In re Southern Peru Copper Corp., 52 A.3d 761 (Del. Ch. 2011), aff'd sub nom. Ams. Mining Corp. v. Theriault, 51 A.3d 1213 (Del. 2012), has been read to support the proposition that any merger with a controlling stockholder will be subject to the entire fairness standard of review. The Court of Chancery distinguished these cases on their facts.
In Lynch I, the controlling stockholder threatened to approach the stockholders with a hostile tender offer at a lower price if the special committee did not approve its offer. Moreover, the Court of Chancery noted that the transaction in Lynch I was conditioned only on the approval of the committee and not on the approval of the unaffiliated stockholders. Similarly, the transaction in Tremont also was not conditioned on the approval of the minority stockholders. In addition, the court in Tremont questioned the independence of the committee. In Southern Peru, the Supreme Court did not determine which standard applied because the parties had agreed that entire fairness was the appropriate standard of review. Thus, the Court of Chancery determined that any broad language suggesting that entire fairness is the only standard of review for a transaction involving a controlling stockholder is dicta and, therefore, has no precedential effect.
In deciding to apply the business judgment standard, the Court of Chancery gave considerable weight to the public policy of Delaware corporate law to defer to informed decisions of impartial directors and to protect minority stockholders. The Court found that Delaware's strong public policy interest in the fair treatment of minority stockholders would best be served by a standard of review that encourages a process that protects such stockholders. The Court stated that adopting the business judgment standard of review where both an independent committee and a vote of disinterested stockholders are properly used would benefit minority stockholders because it would give controlling stockholders an incentive to agree to the use of both procedural protections, resulting in the replication of an arm's-length process. The Court also noted a lack of evidence that the application of the entire fairness standard in cases where both procedural protections were utilized added any real value for minority stockholders, given that, when the more exacting standard of review is adopted, there is no practical way to have the case dismissed at the pleading stage. For these reasons, the Court held that the business judgment standard of review would apply and granted defendants' motion for summary judgment.

Family sues Blount Sheriff's Office in homeowner's killing
KNOXVILLE — The family of a Blount County man shot by a deputy during a property check last year has filed a wrongful-death lawsuit in federal court.
Henry C. Taylor, 68, of Louisville died Aug. 21 while guarding his property. Authorities said Blount County Sheriff's Office Deputy Ernest "Ti" Ragland shot Taylor by mistake while performing a late-night property check Taylor had asked for.
Ragland has returned to duty after a Tennessee Bureau of Investigation probe found no criminal wrongdoing.
Ragland was conducting a property check at 1856 Mentor Road in Louisville following two reported burglaries at the rental property that week. At about the same time, Taylor was making his own check inside the garage.
Ragland told investigators he saw a broken window and went to investigate it, then shined his flashlight inside and saw a man with a gun. He said he shouted at the man and fired repeated shots, killing Taylor.
The lawsuit filed by attorney Gregory P. Isaacs accuses Ragland and his supervisors of negligence and questions whether Ragland identified himself during the property check.
More details as they develop online and in Wednesday's News Sentinel.

Busses Beat
Funny thing about busses, you can ride them, you can photograph them, but RARELY can you beat them from one end of the route to the other, taking a totally different way then them too!
On this day, I managed to not only photograph 6266 and the bus ahead of it (6277 for those wondering), but beat both of them to Fisherman's Wharf. Bus 6277 had left a good 10 minutes prior to this shot too!
Sadly, I would not see 7020 (a 1992 to 1994 built New Flyer Trolley Bus) again on this day.

About MeHi, I am photographer currently based in Augusta region in Georgia, and at the moment I am on the process of building up my glamour photography profile. And for this I require captivating images, and I do need attractive models to create these fascinating images. I understand how badly upcoming do require these kind of pictures of their own to put together their portfolio or comp card or website. So I am in search of these striving models so that we can help each other and benefit from each other. Even for upcoming stylists it would be a chance to do their magic and use their proof of work to update their portfolio. And networking each other in a similar industry it is always a win win situation.

The Department for Communities and Local Government has been reprimanded by the Whitehall spending watchdog after running up an unauthorised overdraft of £217 million.
Head of the National Audit Office (NAO) Amyas Morse announced that he was "qualifying" his regularity opinion of the department's financial statements because of its breach of Treasury spending limits.
The finding is an embarrassment for Communities Secretary Eric Pickles, who has regularly lectured local councils on the need to get their finances under control.
Delivering his Commons statement on the Government's spending review on Wednesday, Chancellor George Osborne praised Mr Pickles as "the model of lean government".
But the NAO disclosed that the Treasury had imposed a £20,000 fine on his department as a punishment for its poor financial management.
In a further setback, the NAO found that the department's local government capital expenditure limit of £80,000 had been exceeded by almost £1.2 million as a result of overspending by two of its arm's-length bodies - the Valuation Tribunal Service and the Commission of Local Administration in England.
Chairman of the Commons Public Accounts Committee Margaret Hodge described the failure of the department to control its finances as "a shocking example of incompetence".
"This is an unacceptable abuse and waste of public money that could have been avoided with the right financial oversight," she said.
"I am staggered that the department has been so blase with its resources and so poor at staying within some of its budgets.
"If local authorities, for whom the department is responsible, acted in this way, the department would be down on them like a ton of bricks. The Department for Communities and Local Government must learn lessons and ensure it does not repeat these mistakes."
