Lotus showed strong pace once again during the team's home race at Silverstone, finishing 5th and 6th, but difficulties on Saturday ultimately kept them off the podium.
While the sun came out on Sunday, Friday and Saturday's running was wet and slippery. During qualifying, Romain Grosjean set the fifth fastest Q2 time but then beached his Lotus E20 in the gravel, meaning he was unable to compete in Q3. He started the grand prix ninth, benefiting from Nico Hulkenberg's five place gearbox-change penalty. Kimi Räikkönen was able to run in Q3 despite having no KERS for the entire qualifying session. He finished up P6, which was impressive given the advantage a horsepower boost has around the very fast Northamptonshire track.
At the start Kimi made an aggressive move down the outside of Sebastian Vettel at Turn 4 but launched himself across the inside kerb in order to avoid Felipe Massa's Ferrari. Romain was forced to make an early pitstop on Lap 2 after he hit Paul di Resta's Force India at the start and suffered a broken front wing. The damage and the subsequent nose-change sunk him to 20th place, from where he fought through the field. Kimi came in on Lap 13 and emerged one place ahead of Grosjean in P7. With the soft tyres out of the way, both Lotus drivers did their second and third stints on the superior hard compound.
The pair then set about dispatching the cars in front of them, Kimi passing Michael Schumacher and Romain pulling off some thrilling moves on Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton. In the final laps, Kimi was pushing Felipe Massa for fourth but was unable to improve, while Romain followed in sixth seven seconds behind his team-mate.
Lotus remains third in the Constructors Championship with 144 points. Ferrari improves and is now second to Red Bull with 152 points, while McLaren slips to fourth two points behind Lotus. Kimi moves up to fifth place in the Drivers' Championship with 83, while Romain retains seventh on 61 points.
Kimi Räikkönen : "I had a pretty okay first few corners but I had to avoid the cars in front and drove over the kerb on the inside of the turn, then I lost a place and was pushed wide. If I had stayed in front of Mark [Webber] at the start it would have been pretty good seeing where he finished, but after that Lewis [Hamilton] also got past me. I fought back and our car was strong, especially on the harder tyres. If I'd had a better start I could have finished much better; but that's racing and sometimes you pay a bigger price than you expect from the first lap."
Romain Grosjean: "There was a little bit of confusion at Turns 3 and 4, and I was on the outside at Turn 3. The Force India came from the inside and just touched my front wing with his rear wheel. It was a shame but there's nothing you can really do in these situations. I think the best thing is to qualify on pole or second place and then it's easier in the first corners. The result itself is not fantastic, but the way the race went, from 22nd to sixth is very good. To come in the points after a change of nose is quite unbelievable, but the team did a great job to give me a car, which was fantastic. The strategy with only one stop in the middle was quite risky, but it worked well, and there were some good battles on track with Jenson Button, Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg. It was very enjoyable."

Only 1 in 4 millennials plan to vote this fall
(NEWSER) – Democrats got some polling news today that might be even scarier than yesterday's approval numbers. Only 23% of voters age 18 to 29 say they "definitely" plan to vote in the 2014 midterms, according to a new Harvard Institute of Politics poll spotted by the Christian Science Monitor. Not only does that demographic lean left, but young Democrats are particularly disengaged, with just 22% locked in to voting, compared to 32% of young Republicans. The reason: Overpowering cynicism. "Trust in every institution we tested is down," the poll's director says.

In its 2 February, 2007, edition, Le Figaro, one of France's premier magazines, discussed the Atlas of Creation, written by Adnan Oktar under the pen-name Harun Yahya and published in Turkish, English and French. The report contained the following statements:
0000-00-00 00:00:00
Many universities, high schools and colleges in France have received copies of a book titled The Atlas of Creation, consisting of around 770 pages and filled with illustrations regarding Darwinism and evolution. The book, written by the Turkish author Harun Yahya (real name Adnan Oktar) underlines the following:
"Evolutionist frauds and misleading statements" and particularly "the hidden links between Darwinism and such bloody ideologies as fascism and communism"
The author also relies on the large number of fossils unearthed all over the world over the last two hundred years in order to say that "species never changed.". . . The author places pictures of magnificent fish, hyenas, ants and starfish alongside pictures of animals and plants that are millions of years older in order to demonstrate that fossils closely resemble living specimens. He thus wishes to show that "living things did not evolve, but were created."

text: I understand if you are a drug addict and hooked on coke and have to go out of town or traveling and you don't know anyone on the other end of your journey and need to try and smuggle coke on board a plane. I think you are an idiot, but I understand. What I don't understand is Wiz Khalifa trying to smuggle some pot on board a short flight from one concert to another where you know there will be tons of pot where he is headed. It is not like he is going to be able to smoke it on the plane. Wiz was busted trying to get through security at the airport and was booked in Texas on possession of pot. He is also probably going to get stopped all the time now at airports and has made his traveling that much tougher. Apparently they no longer take your cell phones from you when busted for something minor because Wiz took the photo above from his jail cell.

Saint Basil's Cathedral, Moscow
Photograph by Izzet Keribar/IML Image Group
Legend has it that St. Basil's Cathedral's beauty cost its architect his eyes. The Moscow monument was built between 1555 and 1561 by Ivan the Terrible to commemorate a victory over the Mongols, and he's said to have blinded the architect so that he couldn't create a rival masterpiece. The Russian St. Basil the Blessed lies interred within the church.
Photograph by Gerd Ludwig
A walk on snowy streets near Red Square reveals two very different faces of Russia. The stately Historical Museum, which faces St. Basil's across Red Square, exhibits the glories of Russia's past. But the hot new styles at Dior may be a bigger draw for newly wealthy Russians.
Garden Ring, Moscow
Photograph by Gerd Ludwig
Moscow's Garden Ring road was laid out in the early 1800s, but the view in those days was nothing like this one from the top of the Peking Hotel. The original ring was a tree-lined boulevard that traced the path of the city's ancient outer wall. Today central Moscow lies inside the ring, but the city stretches well beyond.
Krasheninnikov Volcano
Photograph by Michael Melford
Krasheninnikov Volcano boasts two stunning, snowcapped summit cones. Located on the Pacific shore of Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula, it last erupted some 400 years ago. One indication of how big Russia is: The peninsula is as far from Moscow as Moscow is from Boston.
Brown Bear

A brown bear in Kurilskoye Lake shows its fishing prowess—and he won't be practicing catch and release. This Kamchatka Peninsula lake is home to hundreds of bears, and visitors can see them tuck into a feast during the wild salmon run, one of Earth's greatest. The bears share the fish with white-tailed eagles, golden eagles, and Steller's sea eagles.

Troops line up at one of the gates to the Kremlin. A walled fortress has stood on this Moscow site for the better part of a thousand years. Today the Kremlin is the home of Russia's president, but on its grounds are public attractions such as the Patriarch's Palace, the State Armory, and several churches.

A man herds reindeer in Bystrinsky Park on Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula. He's one of the region's indigenous Even people, who cherish their traditional herding culture even as they welcome increasing numbers of tourists to the high peaks, sprawling forests, and lush tundra and meadows of their homeland—one of the world's truly wild places.
Easter Midnight Mass, Vorkuta
Photograph by Gerd Ludwig
A congregation in Vorkuta gathers to celebrate Easter at a midnight Mass. This coal-mining town, north of the Arctic Circle, was founded as a labor camp. Partly because it was a notorious gulag, partly because of the antichurch positions of the Soviet Union, the town didn't have a dedicated church building until 2007.
Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg
Photograph by Richard Nowitz
The Hermitage houses one of the world's greatest art collections in one of the world's most impressive groups of buildings. A famous former occupant of the palace, Catherine the Great, acquired the core of the collection during her 18th-century reign. Later, new treasures and buildings were added for the enjoyment of other royals and, eventually, the public.
Alexander Column, St. Petersburg
Photograph by Richard Nowitz
The Alexander Column, celebrating Russia's victory over Napoleon, seems small when framed by an arch of the General Staff Building. But at 165 feet (50 meters) and 660 tons (599 metric tons), it's one of the world's largest freestanding monuments. The column fronts the Winter Palace in St. Petersburg's Palace Square, the scene of the 1905 Bloody Sunday and the 1917 Bolshevik storming of the palace.

Wildflowers add color to a dacha, or country home, in Mandrogy, between Moscow and St. Petersburg. Mandrogy is a re-created village, an idealization of traditional country life that's popular with tourists taking cruises on the nearby Svir River.
Oil Pipeline, Siberia

Much of Russia's economic might depends on its vast reserves of fossil fuels, which account for some 60 percent of the nation's export revenues. This man, constructing an oil feeder pipeline in western Siberia, is one of some 71,000 employees of the Russian oil giant TNK-BP.
Lake Baikal

Siberia's Lake Baikal is the deepest lake in the world—at over a mile (1,700 meters)—and holds an incredible 20 percent of Earth's unfrozen fresh water. Formed some 25 million years ago, it's also the world's oldest lake. Because of its age and isolation, hundreds of aquatic species evolved here that are found nowhere else on the planet.

Requests for judicial notice must be made by separate motion. Requests for judicial notice may not be included within a brief. (Rule 8.252(a)(1).) Explain the relevance of the matters sought to be noticed. Include a copy of the matter to be judicially noticed, or explain why it is not practicable to do so. Consecutively number the pages of the attachments to be judicially noticed beginning with the number 1. (Rule 8.252(a)(2) and 8.252(a)(3).) The court may immediately rule on the request for judicial notice or may defer the ruling until it decides the merits of the appeal.
Appellate sanctions are only awarded by motion of a party or on the court's own motion. Sanctions requests may not be included in appellate briefs. The court will not consider a sanctions request that is only made in a party's brief. A party's motion for sanctions must be served and filed no later than 10 days after an appellant's reply brief is due. (Rule 8.276(b).)
Grounds include: taking a frivolous appeal, appealing solely to cause delay, unreasonably violating court rules or a court order, and filing an appendix that contains inaccurate copies of documents. (Rules 8.124(g), and 8.276(a).)
The court will provide written notice to the parties if it is considering sanctions. Only then should the opposing party file an opposition to the sanctions motion. Any opposition must be served and filed within 10 days after the court gives such notice. (Rule 8.276(d).) Oral argument on the sanctions motion usually is heard in conjunction with the appeal on the merits.
If the record on appeal has not been filed in the Court of Appeal, a written abandonment by appellant or stipulation for abandonment must be filed with the clerk of the superior court, who will then forward it to this court Cal. Rules of Court, (rule 8.244(b)(1).) Judicial Council (form APP-005) may be used. If a respondent wishes to dismiss the appeal, the respondent must file the motion to dismiss the appeal at the Court of Appeal Cal. Rules of Court, (rule 8.57(a).)
If the record on appeal has been filed in the Court of Appeal, a written request by appellant or stipulation for dismissal must be filed with the clerk of the Court of Appeal. Judicial Council (form APP-007) may be used. If the parties stipulate to dismiss the appeal, the parties may stipulate to costs. If there is no such stipulation, respondent will be awarded costs. The remittitur will issue forthwith. If a respondent wishes to dismiss the appeal, the respondent must file the motion to dismiss the appeal at the Court of Appeal.
The Court of Appeal accepts only original signatures on motions as well as all other documents (except for computer generated briefs, which do not need to be signed). The original signature of at least one party must appear on a stipulation for extension of time; the signatures of other parties may be in the form of copies of the signed signature page (rule 8.42.) Electronically filed documents are deemed signed by the party. Please refer to rule 8.77 for further requirements.
The Court of Appeal generally does not conduct hearings on motions.
Generally, the Sixth Appellate District holds oral argument four days each month.
A party requesting oral argument must serve the request on all other parties.
If the parties wish to submit additional authorities not cited in their briefs, they must do so no later than three days prior to scheduled oral arguments.
At the beginning of oral argument, the presiding justice may inform counsel of any particular issues the panel wants addressed.
Counsel should remember that oral argument presents the opportunity to emphasize or clarify key factual or legal points not fully treated in the briefs and to discuss the relevance of authorities decided since briefing was completed.
Counsel may not stipulate to the continuance of the date scheduled for oral argument.
If a request for oral argument is not filed, oral argument will be deemed waived, and the court will proceed with the processing and filing of the opinion.
Note: System is temporarily unavailable. To reduce costs to the parties and provide greater convenience to counsel, the Sixth Appellate District has installed a telephone conference system that enables attorneys to present oral arguments by telephone as an alternative to personal appearance in court.
In all cases, civil, criminal, and juvenile, in which a party has a right to present oral argument, counsel may elect to present oral argument by telephone conference.
Counsel's request to present oral argument by telephone conference shall be made in writing and served on all parties. The request shall contain the following information as indicated on the forms supplied by the court:
The Sixth District Teleconferencing Oral Argument Procedures manual is available for download. A word .doc is also available.
The court may record oral arguments by telephone conference call and a request for oral argument by telephone will be deemed consent to such recording.
The court does not transcribe oral arguments, however a recording is available.
You may purchase a recording of oral argument in an individual case for $20. Checks should be made payable to Clerk, Court of Appeal.
Requests for continuance of oral argument are required to be a formal pleading with a declaration stating the reasons for the continuance, accompanied by proof of service on opposing counsel. The applicant shall contact opposing counsel and state in their declaration if counsel agrees with the continuance. Oral argument will not be continued by stipulation of counsel absent a showing of good cause. Letter requests will not be considered. Because of the considerable investment of court time and resources necessary to prepare a case for oral argument, continuances are disfavored and will be granted only on a showing of good cause. Counsel are reminded that lower court proceedings do not take precedence. If no appearance is made, the case may be ordered submitted.
The "Submission" Date. The "submission" date triggers the deadline for appellate decisions. The court files a written opinion within 90 days after it has been submitted for decision. (G.C. 68210 and Article 6, Section 19, Calif. State Constitution.)
Oral Argument Cases. A case is generally "submitted" at the end of oral argument, as directed by the Presiding Justice. However, if the Presiding Justice allows the parties to submit supplemental post-argument letter briefs, the case will be deemed submitted when the supplemental briefs are due or have been filed. (Rule 8.256(d)(1).)
"Waiver" Cases. If there is no oral argument, the case is submitted at the conclusion of briefing and when the court accepts the waiver of argument. (Rule 8.256(d)(1).)
Vacating Submissions. The court may vacate the submission for good cause (for example, to consider the impact, if any, of a new Supreme Court opinion, or to consider diverging views by one or more panel members). The resubmission order will set a new timetable for the decision. (Rule 8.256(e).)
(Rules 8.1105 and 8.1110), CRC, set forth the bases for evaluating whether an intermediate appellate court opinion should be published, in full or in part. Factors the court is required to consider include whether the opinion:
|Petition for rehearing (Civil)

The Court of Appeal retains jurisdiction for 30 days from the filing of its opinion. If it fails to act on the petition within the 30-day period, the petition will be deemed denied under Cal. Rules of Court, (rules 8.264(b)(1) and 8.268(c).)
After the Court of Appeal loses jurisdiction, a petition for review may be filed in the California Supreme Court See Cal. Rules of Court, (rule 8.500).
The Court of Appeal has jurisdiction over an appeal for 30 days from the date the opinion was filed or a request for publication was granted or an opinion was modified in a manner that changed the judgment. The court cannot modify or change an opinion or grant rehearing after an opinion becomes final. (Rules 8.264(b)(1), 8.264(b)(3), 8.264(c)(2) and (8.268(a)(2), 8.268(c).)
While the Court of Appeal may shorten the time for finality for good cause, it may not extend it. (Rules 8.264(b)(3), 8.264(c), (8.268(c) and (8.490(b).) Dismissals of appeals on request or stipulation become final immediately, as do summary denials of writ petitions. (Rules 8.264(b)(2), 8.490(b), and 8.499(c).)
The parties only have 10 calendar days from the date of finality to file a petition for review with the California Supreme Court. (Rule 8.500(e).)
The remittitur, the document which returns jurisdiction to the superior court, will be issued by the Court of Appeal 61 days after the filing of its opinion, barring any time extensions by the Supreme Court. The remittitur will be issued upon the denial of a petition for review in the Supreme Court. Cal. Rules of Court, (rule 8.272(b)(1)(A).) The remittitur alerts counsel to file their cost bill in superior court. See Cal. Rules of Court, (rule 8.278) for costs on appeal. Counsel have 40 days from the date the remittitur is issued to file a memorandum of costs in superior court as prescribed by (rule 3.1700).

Formatting: Exhibits must contain a table of contents listing exhibits by document title and corresponding index-tab, be tabbed (by number or letter) on the right hand side and consecutively paginated beginning with the front cover. Include a comprehensive table of contents covering all volumes. (Rule 8.486(c)(1).)
Number of Pages: Don't put more than 300 pages in any single volume of exhibits. Consecutively number the pages. (Rule 8.486(c)(1)(A).) If you don't have many exhibits, you may bind them together in a single volume with the writ petition, in which case the exhibits should be consecutively numbered with the petition.
Service: You must serve a complete set of the exhibits on each real party in interest. You do not have to serve a copy of the exhibits on the superior court. (Rule 8.486(e)(1).)
Preliminary Opposition
You are not required to oppose a writ petition, and you may elect to wait until invited to do so by the court. The court ordinarily will not issue an alternative writ, order to show cause or a peremptory writ without first inviting a response from you by written notice/order.
You should file a return if the court issues an order to show cause or an alternative writ. (Rule 8.487(b)(2).)
Reply to Preliminary Opposition: A petitioner may file an optional reply in support of a writ petition after receiving preliminary opposition from the other side. You may serve and file a reply within 10 days after the preliminary opposition is filed. (Rule 8.487(a)(3).) But be aware that the writ panel already may have reached a decision on your writ petition before this time!
Reply to Return: You may have a longer period of time to file a reply if the court issues an alternative writ, order to show cause or a "Palma notice" (that the court is considering issuing a peremptory writ in the first instance). The court usually will specify the deadline for such a reply in the alternative writ or order to show cause. If it does not, you have 15 days to serve and file a reply after the return or opposition is filed. (Rule 8.487(b)(3).)
Filing with the Appellate Division:
You should file a writ petition challenging a ruling in a limited civil case with the Appellate Division of the Superior Court, not with the Court of Appeal. That is because the Appellate Division is the next higher court capable of granting relief.
Filing with the Court of Appeal:
Appellate Division Transfers
Appellate division transfers are considered under Code of Civil Procedure section 911 and (rules 8.1000) et seq. Under the Rules of Court, transfer may be ordered only where the appellate division has either published its opinion or certified the case for transfer or upon a party's petition to transfer. The Court of Appeal has "uncontrolled discretion" to grant or deny transfer. (Dvorin v. Appellate Dept. (1975) 15 Cal.3d 648, 650.) Transfer will be ordered only if the Court of Appeal determines "that transfer is necessary to secure uniformity of decision or to settle an important question of law." (Rule 8.1002.)
The writ panel discusses the merits of the writ petition at the writ conference and decides upon an appropriate remedy. The writ panel has a number of procedural options.
1. Summary Denial. The writ panel may deny the writ petition without opposition, or the writ panel may issue an order denying the writ after preliminary opposition has been filed or after the deadline for preliminary opposition has passed.
2. Alternative Writ. The writ panel may issue an alternative writ to provide the superior court with a second chance to change its ruling. The alternative writ directs the petitioner to serve the alternative writ upon the superior court and provides the court an additional period of time in which to comply with the alternative writ.
3. Order to Show Cause. If the Court of Appeal wants further briefing and argument on the issues raised by the writ petition, the court will directly issue an order to show cause (OSC) to the real party in interest without issuing an alternative writ. The order to show cause will specify a deadline for the real party's "return" and for the petitioner's reply. (Rule 8.487(b)). The order to show cause also may set a date for oral argument. The court will file a written opinion whether or not relief is granted. The opinion becomes final 30 days after filing, unless the court grants earlier finality in the interests of justice. (Rule 8.490(b)).
4. Peremptory Writ. Peremptory writs are reserved for exceptional situations where either (i) some "unusual urgency" justifies acceleration of the normal writ process or (ii) petitioner's entitlement to relief is "so obvious that no purpose could reasonably be served by plenary consideration of the issue." This may occur where there has been clear error under well-settled principles of law and undisputed facts. (See Lewis v. Superior Court (1999) 19 Cal.4th 1232.)
The Court of Appeal is not bound by a time limit for ruling on a petition. The consideration of any particular writ depends upon the urgency of the relief, the adequacy of the record, whether preliminary opposition is requested, the size and complexity of the writ petition and the other matters for the writ panel to consider.
A petitioner who requests an immediate stay must explain in the petition the reasons for the urgency and set forth all relevant time constraints. In addition, the date of the requested stay must be stated on the front cover.
Show proof of service on the clerk of the superior court and opposing counsel. The proof of service must indicate the party represented by each attorney served and must give the telephone number of each attorney.. Providing the State Bar number of each attorney on the proof of service may expedite the processing of your writ petition.
A petition for an extraordinary writ that seeks review of a superior court ruling must be accompanied by the following: a copy of the order or judgment from which relief is sought; copies of all documents submitted to the superior court supporting and opposing petitioner's petition; and a transcript of the proceedings leading to the order or judgment in the superior court. Failure to provide an adequate record is ground for denial.
Exhibits to the petition must be tabbed, consecutively paginated, and accompanied by a table of contents. Include a comprehensive table of contents covering all volumes.
No bound documents can exceed 300 pages per volume.
The Court of Appeal does not make copies of the record or briefs. The Court of Appeal makes public records available for viewing but it is up to the party to either hire a copy service if he/she wants copies made or use the self-service copier for 25 cents per page. Opinions are posted to the web within an hour of rendering.
Most docket sheets may be obtained online.
Records may be viewed in the Clerk's Office lobby during regular office hours. You may want to call ahead to verify the record is available before visiting. Inactive cases may be in offsite storage.
Criminal and civil files are public record and are available for viewing unless they have been sealed by the court. Juvenile, paternity, and mental health cases are confidential and not available to the public.
1. Call to verify the availability of the record.
2. Provide the Court with a written letter requesting the record.
3. Include a $40 retrieval fee. Records contained in multiple boxes may require additional fees. If paying by check, make your check payable to the Clerk, Court of Appeal.
The party seeking certification must submit a true and accurate copy of the document he/she desires certified. The remittitur can only be certified by the trial court. The timeframe for certification of documents is three to five days once the documents are received by the Court. Comparison and certification fees will apply.
Yes. Call the Court of Appeal to verify the availability of the record before visiting. Inactive cases may be offsite.
Criminal and Civil files are public record and available for viewing unless they have been sealed by the Court. However, juvenile, paternity and mental health cases are confidential and not available to the public.
Court of Appeal records may not be taken offsite under any circumstances. Records may only be viewed in the lobby.
Records stored offsite may take up to 3 weeks to obtain; however, in most instances, records are available within one week. The Court will call the requestor when the record arrives.
A record can usually be kept available for as long as a party is actually viewing or copying it, generally not more than one month.
The Court cannot receive requests by fax or other electronic methods.
Not at this time. The Court of Appeal only accepts payments by check or cash.
Not at this time. The one exception is opinions as mentioned above.
1. The case is under review with the Court: Please contact the Clerk's Office for more information as to when the record may become available.
2. The Supreme Court has granted review of the case: In these circumstances, the record is only available through the Supreme Court. Please contact their San Francisco location at 415-865-7000.
3. The case has been destroyed: The Record Retention Schedule is as Follows:
Civil Records: 10 years
Criminal and Juvenile Records: 20 years
Some records may be preserved locally or archived at the California State Archives in Sacramento. For more information regarding archived records, please see the California State Archive website at: http://www.sos.ca.gov/archives/
The only time you may do this is if you have the appropriate equipment to rebind the documents. The exception is documents with tape binding. These documents may not be unbound under any circumstances. Additionally, cases from the 1980s and prior may contain documents printed on very thin onion paper. Copying/scanning these documents with a feeder will require special equipment able to handle this sensitive paper. If you do not have access to this type of equipment these documents must be copied on the glass surface of the copier/scanner.
The purpose of this document is to acquaint the bar and interested members of the public with the general operating practices of the Court of Appeal, Sixth Appellate District.
The internal procedures of the Court of Appeal are largely governed by the California Constitution, statutes, and the appellate rules adopted by the Judicial Council. The Court of Appeal may adopt and publish its own rules that do not conflict with a statute or rule adopted by the Judicial Council.

Eazy-E's Son Shows Support To Actor Playing His Late Father
Listen to N.W.A. Radio on iHeartRadio
Eazy-E's son is throwing his support behind the actor playing his father in the upcoming N.W.A. biopic, Straight Outta Compton.
In an interview with Rolling Stone, Lil Eazy-E says he reached out to actor Jason Mitchell to lend him support as well as "any advice he needs." Lil Eazy points out that Mitchell has a "big burden on his shoulders" to accurately portray his father and his rap group, N.W.A. He's even invited Mitchell to his grandmother's house, where the late rapper was born and raised.
Lil Eazy also denied reports that he was angry at Mitchell's casting because he wanted the role for himself. He hoped to portray his father and even had a private audition with filmmakers, but he's "not upset" about not getting the part.
Straight Outta Compton is scheduled to arrive on August 14th, 2015.

A Montgomery County special education teacher employs a special assistant named Bogie to teach valuable lessons.
Mitzvah Heroes: This is a tale of a Wolf and a dog — and an incredible journey both are taking to help kids with special needs. Leslie Wolf is a Montgomery County teacher for the "emotional support" classroom at Fort Washington Elementary School. Bogie, a 3-year-old Golden Doodle, is her special assistant.
What It's All About: For the past year, Bogie ("Short for Bogart — as in Humphrey," says his owner) has been working with Wolf, teacher assistant Sue Chiriano and student teacher Paige Budin. Wolf knew Bogie had it in him to become certified as a Canine Good Citizen Therapy Dog: "He's a special dog; he has a good heart," she says. Bogie acts as a sounding board for the children who share their stories with him and see him as a role model of good behavior. He's rewarded by being petted, which the kids love to do, says Wolf, who has been teaching special-needs children in Montgomery County and, before that, in Philadelphia, for the past 30 years.
Not a One-Time Thing: Bogie is a regular at the Fort Washington school, working Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays, known as BBOF (Bogie Barks on Friday). Here's barking at you, kids? On BBOF, students are taught to turn their backs when Bogie barks incessantly. When they do, he stops, offering an example of how being too demanding can be counterproductive.
Though Wolf plans to retire this June, there will still be work for Bogie. In fact, he "freelances" at other jobs right now. Wolf said her husband, Bob, takes their dog to visit special-needs kids in Bucks County, hospices and nursing homes for a "Reading With Fido" program.
Good for Her: Sometimes working with Bogie is a special treat. On Nov. 17, Wolf and her canine companion will visit 3-year-old grandson Akiva Levine's school to show what a therapy dog can do to help others.
"It's Bogie visits Torah Academy," she says, proud to show off "the little light he gives off."
She recalled how Bogie once calmed down a youngster in the Fort Washington Elementary class "by licking her tears."
"Bogie is definitely a mitzvah dog."

The make-good dates at the famed New York City venue are set for October 21st, 22nd, 24th, and 25th. The Allmans will then play what they're calling "the final shows" for the group, also at the Beacon, on October 27th and 28th.
Guitarist Derek Trucks who, along with Warren Haynes, is leaving the band at the end of this year, tells Billboard.com he's not sure if "final" really means the end of the group. He admits their original idea was to "go out strong" and "end it together" with the Allman Brothers Band's 45th anniversary. But Trucks says now that it's "becoming a realty for the other guys," he's not sure if "that's exactly how it's gonna go down." He adds that he'd "never count that band out."

Federal Acquisition Conference/Expo (FACE) Starts Tuesday
June 6, 2005
GSA – Viki Reath (202) 501-1231
DoD – Dianne Bagley (703) 695-7145
OFPP – Lesley Field (202) 395-4761
Washington, D.C. – Participants at the two-day, 2005 Federal Acquisition Conference and Exposition (FACE), opening tomorrow at the Washington Convention Center will have a chance to listen to the views of U.S. Rep. Tom Davis of Virginia, along with at least 70 federal acquisition experts from 31 federal agencies.
"Mission Possible through Acquisition," this year's FACE theme, reflects the federal government's commitment to contracting as a key component in how agencies purchase goods and services needed to fulfill their missions. Conference sponsors are the Chief Acquisition Officers Council, the Federal Acquisition Institute, the General Services Administration (GSA) and the Department of Defense (DOD).
"The FACE Expo, with its full range of training on the latest acquisition issues and a multitude of exhibitors' products and services, provides an exceptional opportunity for the acquisition community," said GSA Administrator Stephen A. Perry. "It has become a major event, because it offers agencies a chance to learn about the many procurement options available to them. Equally important, FACE is another building block in the campaign to 'Get it Right' in federal contracting."
Deidre Lee, Director, Defense Procurement and Acquisition Policy, DoD, welcomes the opportunity to meet with the contracting officers, specialists, technical and contracting officer representatives, program managers and private contractors.
"DoD fully supports all efforts to provide the best value for federal agencies and the U.S. taxpayers," said Lee, who will speak at FACE. "The more we work together to achieve these goals, the more we'll succeed."
The conference also has the support of David H. Safavian, Administrator for Federal Procurement Policy, Office of Management and Budget.
"The acquisition workforce plays a critical role helping agencies achieve their mission goals -- but they do not work alone," said Safavian, who also will address the conference. "Public and private sector practitioners, executives, academia, and industry come to FACE 2005 to discuss issues of importance to the acquisition community. The continued success of this event reflects how closely our communities are working to demonstrate results for the nation."

Difference between revisions of "Heists"
(→The Big Score (GTA V))
m (1 revision)
(No difference)
Revision as of 21:11, 1 January 2014
Petty crimes, hustling and stealing cars can only get you so far in Los Santos. To score big, Michael, Franklin and Trevor will work together to pull off grand heists - big, multi-part missions that require careful preparation, recruiting, and precise (and often explosive) execution. Cash is king in GTAV, and while there will be plenty of ways to acquire and spend it - heists are the way to earn the big bucks.
GTA V Website
Heists are elaborate story missions in first introduced in Grand Theft Auto Vice City, in The Job. There are two in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, one in Grand Theft Auto IV in Three Leaf Clover and 6 in Grand Theft Auto V. There are 11 missions spread across the series, each requiring careful preparation and execution. If you successfully complete these jobs, you can earn millions of dollars. The ability to replay these missions also exists.

Heists, in the conventional term, have appeared in several Grand Theft Auto games as straightforward missions, but take on a bigger dimension in Grand Theft Auto V. In Grand Theft Auto V the major heists typically begin with a meeting of the three protagonists: Michael, Franklin, and Trevor. The player is presented with options on how to approach the proposed mission. For example, you could enter a building stealthily from the roof, or bust through the front door. The complex missions require the help of specialists. These are wheelmen, hired guns, or hackers. You have cheap and expensive options. The drawback to hiring an expert is they demand a bigger cut of the take. Once you have some clear objectives and hire the specialists you require, you must perform a series of sub-missions. These include: stealing the vehicles being used for the job, finding a place to stash the getaway vehicle, and buying some suits and masks to wear during the heist. An achievement/trophy will be unlocked for each heist when completed.

Thanks to your generosity, the United States is the largest provider of food assistance in the world. With Congressional support, USAID's Office of Food for Peace has reached more than three billion of the world's neediest people in over 150 countries with life-saving food assistance – perhaps the largest and longest-running expression of humanity seen in the world. I want to also thank our partners – American farmers, mariners, and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and intergovernmental organizations – for supporting USAID in our work. Our efforts would not be possible without them, and we look forward to continuing our strong partnership to make millions of people around the world more food secure. I am also pleased to testify alongside my colleague, Phil Karsting, of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Foreign Agricultural Service, and am proud of the ongoing partnership between our two agencies.
Since being nominated, I have had the opportunity to consult with several members of this Committee, and I have appreciated your guidance and counsel to ensure that USAID remains the world's preeminent development agency. From the humanitarian emergency in Syria and ongoing conflict in eastern Ukraine, to the pressing needs in Central America and the Ebola virus in West Africa, today's world demands creative solutions to increasingly complex problems.
Over the past two Administrations, we have seen unprecedented bipartisan support for the Agency's key initiatives, from global health and food security to humanitarian assistance and science and technology—as well as a recognition that the Agency's work must be informed by a rigorous use of evidence and data to guide decision-making. These are principles that have driven my own approach to international development across a thirty-five year career, and principles that I will continue to uphold as Administrator, if confirmed.
It is an exciting and pivotal time for U.S. policy in the region. More people live in Asia than anywhere else on the planet. Over the past three decades, the region has experienced an unprecedented period of prosperity, propelling hundreds of millions out of extreme poverty. A growing middle class has expanded trade opportunities and driven reciprocal growth in countries around the world, including the United States. The 10 member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) alone comprise our fourth largest export market. In the next decade, trade volume in Asia is expected to double, and by 2050, Asia's gross domestic product (GDP) is projected to account for more than half of the world's GDP.
U.S. assistance provides balance as well as choices for Central Asian countries to develop the wherewithal to determine their own futures. USAID is strengthening democratic governance systems and helping to shape regionally and globally connected economies not wholly dependent on remittances, as well as meeting urgent human needs through a focus on health, food security and modest but important support to specific issues like combatting human trafficking.
The U.S. government's "rebalance" to the Asia-Pacific recognizes that our future prosperity and security are inextricably tied to the region. Over the past three decades, the region has experienced an unprecedented period of prosperity, propelling hundreds of millions out of extreme poverty. A growing middle class has expanded trade opportunities and driven reciprocal growth in countries around the world, including the United States.
As Acting Administrator Alfonso Lenhardt testified before you last week, USAID's mission across the globe is to partner to end extreme poverty and promote resilient, democratic societies. In Latin America and the Caribbean, USAID assistance has helped expand financing for small businesses and supported macroeconomic policies to help reduce inequities and create opportunities through improved access to quality health and education services. Several countries in the region are now donors in their own right.
For more than two decades, USAID has partnered with the Government of Nepal to strengthen its governance system, especially its disaster management and emergency response capabilities. While the April 25 earthquake and subsequent aftershocks caused significant damage to the country, preparedness measures put in place prior to the earthquake—such as the pre-positioning of supplies and training on earthquake-resistant construction—helped to save lives and mitigate damage. To date, the U.S. Government has provided nearly $47 million in humanitarian assistance to earthquake-affected populations. We know that our investments before the crisis and after will be critical to ensuring that Nepal can overcome this latest tragedy and build a democratic, resilient future.
USAID's longstanding role in the Balkans and across Europe and Eurasia is to work with host countries and international partners to build the institutions of government, the economic systems, and the free civil societies that lead to democracy and prosperity. Our job is to help build the foundations of "a Europe Whole, Free, and at Peace."
Over the past two decades, USAID's programs in the Balkans have been designed to accelerate democratic progress and European integration. Today we partner with governments, civil society and other donors in Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Albania, Serbia, and Macedonia to strengthen democracies and the rule of law, confront endemic corruption, and expand civil society and a free press.
President Barack Obama's fiscal year (FY) 2016 budget request of $845.6 million in foreign assistance for the East Asia-Pacific represents an 8 percent increase over FY 2014, laying a foundation for long-term strengthening of our relationships with the people of the region.
It is an exciting and pivotal time for U.S. policy in the region. More people live in Asia than anywhere else on the planet. Hundreds of millions have been lifted out of extreme poverty over the past few decades, contributing to economic growth, regional stability and a growing middle class. In the next decade, trade volume in Asia is expected to double, and by 2050, Asia's gross domestic product (GDP) is projected to account for more than half of the world's GDP.

Brandon Girdley, left, Rachel Carr and Kendall Sewell hold the map
the John B. Begley
Scholars created for their study of the Electoral
COLUMBIA, Ky. -- A group of 12 Lindsey
Wilson College students came within one electoral vote of
predicting the correct outcome of this year's presidential
The students, who are members of the LWC John B. Begley
Scholars Program, were assigned to predict the vote in 19 states.
Each student, who voted in their first presidential election, was
given one or two states to study and then predict which way they
thought the state would swing on Nov. 6.
As a group, the dozen students correctly predicted all of
the states' outcomes -- with the exception of Maine, who they
thought would give one of its four electoral votes to
Romney. (Maine and Nebraska allocate two electoral
votes each to the popular vote winner and one each to the popular
vote winner in each state's Congressional district.)
So instead of forecasting a
332-206 electoral win for President Obama as it turned out, the
Begley Scholars predicted at a Nov. 1 meeting a 331-207 electoral
vote victory for Obama over challenger Gov. Mitt
LWC student Rachel Carr of Danville, Ky.,
who studied Maine's electorate, said she thought a combination of
Obama's economic policy and heavy last-minute campaign expenditures
by the Romney campaign would turn Maine's Second Congressional
District red for Romney on election day.
"That area makes most of their money off lumber, so I
thought with Obama's economic policy and the Romney campaign had
almost doubled their spending in the days before the election, I
thought that would be effective," Carr said.
In addition to studying the nine swing states most political
analysts thought would ultimately determine the presidential
election's outcome (Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire,
North Carolina, Ohio, Virginia and Wisconsin), the students
examined 10 other states they believed could influence the
election's outcome: Arizona, Georgia, Indiana, Maine, Michigan,
Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, New Mexico, Oregon and
The other 31 states and District of Columbia were assumed to
be solidly in the Obama or Romney camp based on polling
"With the election predicted to be so close, we wanted the
project to focus on other states that could also have an impact on
the outcome," said LWC President William T. Luckey Jr., who directed the
students' project. "After all, the Electoral College only has 2.25
quadrillion possible outcomes, so we thought it was important to
broaden our study beyond just nine states."
The students based their predictions on newspaper editorials,
polling data and dozens of blogs.
By studying only a couple states instead of all 19, the
students said they came to understand as a group that the
presidential election was not nearly as close in the Electoral
College as it was in the national popular vote.
"I had studied the Electoral College a lot, but I think this
project helped me see that the race really wasn't as close as close
as everyone was saying it was -- even though the popular vote was
very close," Carr said. "When we looked at the numbers for the
Electoral College, Romney almost didn't have a chance. And that's
exactly what happened in the election."
The students said that a group project also helped make for
a more accurate overall prediction of the Electoral College's
"I didn't think as many states that we said would go for
Obama would, especially Florida and Virginia," said LWC student
Brandon Girdley of Louisville, Ky.
LWC student Kendall Sewell of Somerset,
Ky., said the project was also an example of
"When you focused on just one or two states instead of nine
or 19, you didn't worry as much what the overall picture looked
like. You were just focusing on your assignment," he said. "You
didn't look at the map and worry that too many states were in the
Romney or Obama column and then try to balance things
The students said the project also helped them better
appreciate the overall mood of the U.S. electorate.
"This country is just incredibly divided," Sewell said. "You
go from a rural county, where it's incredibly red, incredibly
anti-Obama, to an urban center, where you can't find a Romney fan

Comparing Apples To Oranges, Fox Butchers "Fiscal Cliff" Explanation
Blog ››› ››› ALBERT KLEINE
Fox News botched its explanation of the so-called "fiscal cliff" to shield high-income earners from an increase in tax cuts and falsely claimed that preventing a tax increase on 98 percent of taxpayers would not contribute to alleviating the problem. In reality, extending tax cuts to the majority of Americans would help reduce consumer uncertainty, which would contribute to short-term economic growth.
Appearing on Fox & Friends, Fox personality Eric Bolling explained that if the so-called fiscal cliff is not averted, "514 billion dollars of new taxes will hit America on January 1, 2013." Hosts Brian Kilmeade and Steve Doocy then claimed that President Obama's plan to raise taxes on the highest 2 percent of income earners would fall short of solving "half the fiscal cliff," as Obama had suggested in his November 14 press conference. From Fox & Friends:
In the segment, Doocy claims and Bolling agrees that since raising taxes on the highest income earners would only raise $80 billion dollars in revenue, it would fail to solve "half the fiscal cliff."
But their argument, which matches a figure of revenue against a figure of tax increases, is deeply flawed. The $514 billion figure Bolling cites is an estimate of the increased tax burden -- not a revenue shortfall -- scheduled to take effect in 2013. In fact, the rise in taxes would undoubtedly increase revenue. Instead, he falsely suggests the $514 billion would increase the deficit and is inadequately covered for by the $80 billion in revenue from raising taxes on the wealthy. Claiming that $80 billion in additional revenue falls short of solving "half" of the $514 billion in tax increases is misguided, as both measures move in the same direction of increasing revenue.
Furthermore, Doocy's claim that Obama falsely said raising taxes would solve "half the fiscal cliff" from a revenue standpoint misrepresents Obama's actual comments. From his November 14 press conference:
OBAMA: And so the most important step we can take right now, and, I think, the foundation for a deal that helps the economy, creates jobs, gives consumers certainty, which means gives businesses confidence that they're going to have consumers during the holiday season, is if we right away say 98 percent of Americans are not going to see their taxes go up; 97 percent of small businesses are not going to see their taxes go up.
If we get that in place, we are actually removing half of the fiscal cliff. Half of the danger to our economy is removed by that single step.
Obama is referring specifically to the policy uncertainty caused by the so-called fiscal cliff, not the impact on federal revenue. Indeed, uncertainty is a real concern and creates a damaging economic effect, with consumer uncertainty perhaps having the greatest impact. According to David Brodwin of the American Sustainable Business Council:
Finally, uncertainty does matter--a lot--when it comes to consumer spending, even though it has nothing to do with whether small businesses hire. If a consumer is worried about layoffs at their work place, they cut back on their spending. If a consumer has inadequate insurance, they cut back on their spending. If a consumer is worried about how they'll afford college, they cut back on their spending.
All this time we've been worried about the wrong kind of uncertainty. We can forget about the uncertainty created by a small bump in the top-bracket tax rates. We need to address the demand-destroying uncertainty that still afflicts far too many ordinary Americans. Once we fix that, demand will return and jobs will follow. [U.S. News, 11/5/2012]
Since current law will impose both spending cuts and tax increases, agreeing to extend tax cuts on the majority of Americans would go a long way in removing the consumer side of the tax uncertainty "half" of the fiscal cliff.
Removing this uncertainty would restore confidence among consumers and allow them to have sound expectations regarding their taxes. Robertson Williams, a senior fellow at the Tax Policy Center, warned consumers that, without knowing what tax bills to expect in the coming year, they should not "spend every penny in [their paychecks] this side of New Years," which could negatively affect economic growth in the short-term.

way and how God's presence is connected" to the blessing.
He added that holy water is usually sprinkled onto the person or
object being blessed as an echo of Baptism.
The recent blessings are the newest in a Mount tradition. In the
past, Fr. Amodio and Fr. Kevin E. Mackin, OFM, college president,
have blessed campus sports fields, student vehicles, wedding
couples, those celebrating anniversaries, employee offices, roses
on the feast of St. Therese, and student religious articles.
Fr. Mackin will bless the animals of Mount students, alumni, and
those in the Newburgh area on Sunday, September 29, after morning
mass, in honor of St. Francis of Assisi.
Rooted in the college's Catholic tradition, the Mount's campus
ministry helps to build a community of faith through prayer,
worship, and service. A variety of activities are offered,
including prayer experiences, retreats, and service programs.

WATCH: Michelle Williams' Shares Video for 'Say Yes' Feat. Beyonce, Kelly Rowland & Solange
Listen to Michelle Williams on iHeartRadio
Here it is! The full video of Michelle Williams' hot new track "Say Yes" featuring cameos and vocals from her Destiny's Child girls and Solange.
Michelle debuted the video on "Good Morning America" and said shooting the video was "so fun."
"Sometimes the director or production assistants had to say like, 'OK, girls, bring it back home. Bring it back together because when we were together, we go back to how we were when we were younger, just always laughing and talking about things," she said. "It's been a great moment."
The song comes from Williams' upcoming album, Journey to Freedom, out Sept. 9, which she said is about her "personal journey to freedom."
"Freedom from what was probably keeping me from being my best. It could have been bad relationships, business and personal wise. Not feeling all the way confident within myself," Williams explained on "GMA." It's about breaking "free from whatever it is that's keeping you from being the best person you can be."

Had the best few days of MMA related stuff in the last week.
Went to UFC on Saturday. Was lucky enough to be sat behind Baraos brother. Got talking and told him one of the guys from the gym has a tattoo of Barao. Emailed him the pic and he said he would show it to Renan.
Gets an email back on Monday saying he wants to meet my mate and see his tattoo. So we travel down with my mate and my tattooist to London Fight Factory and meet up with Barao. He signs the tat and then my mate tattoos the signiture on him too.
