A Workplace that Inspires
Former Dechert Chair, Bart Winokur, discusses Dechert's commitment to displaying modern art as a way to inspire team members' creativity by bringing a sense of dynamism and energy to the workplace every day.
Big Law Art Collections: Dechert
For Dechert, art is about more than filling wall space—it is the heart and soul of the firm's real estate. Art provokes sensation and demands reaction, creating a synergy between creator and viewer. In Dechert's 27 offices around the world, these forces collude to create stimulating spaces that surprise and provoke. In refining its cultural take, the firm has itself pushed into fertile new terrain. Today, Dechert collects, adding steadily to its 765-work patrimony. Dechert commissions, giving voice to artists across the world. Dechert selects, choosing dynamic, individual pieces in sync with the firm's entrepreneurial culture. And Dechert cultivates, using art to reflect the identity of location and maintaining it at the center of the firm's very being.
Former Dechert chairman Bart Winokur knows the New York office like the back of his hand. Winokur, who turned a regional U.S. law firm into a global presence, also transformed its cultural viewpoint. Art in the workplace should engage and inspire, he believes—more, it should energize all those who come into contact with it.
Over 130 curated pieces now line the walls of the firm's Sixth Avenue offices. Turn down one corridor and Joan Mitchell's Trees— immense, lurid "scribble prints"—give way to the monochrome starkness of Kiki Smith's lunar photography, I See the Moon and the Moon Sees Me, Tidal Moon. "The contrast engages the mind," says Winokur. "Even if you don't know why, you say 'wow'."
James Surls' Falling Flowers, a wood-and-steel colossus finished in 2008, dominates the center. Surls sculpted his mesmerizing masterwork specifically for the space, seeking first to draw the viewer forward, then descend through clouds of hand-hewn petals cascading freely down a shimmering, three-floor staircase. "I had written poems about flowers on garden walls, falling over the walls and hanging down," says Surls. "I wanted to create something that covered the whole space and yet somehow also fell through it."
Ten years on, Dechert went back to Surls, asking him to create something new. The result? We Speak Through the Prism, a drawing depicting truth that, he says, is personally oriented towards Dechert, "a very particular law firm."
Singapore managing partner Dean Collins was visiting an art fair with his daughter when he met Alberto Sanchez, a Spanish emigre. Collins was stunned how Sanchez enhanced his black-and-white photography with a multi-hued resin overlay and felt an instant affinity.
Tasked with opening Dechert's new office in Singapore and keen to commission fresh works that would reflect the firm's unique character, Collins proposed a collaboration.
After discussion with Collins and colleagues, Sanchez headed to Indonesia, a locus for much of the firm's work in Asia. In Bali, he found inspiration, capturing black-and-white images of a rural, traditional scene over which he set about applying his vibrant signature treatment.
The dichotomy inherent in Sanchez's work has much in common with the way Dechert people—"a forward-thinking group," says Collins— practice the law. "We take some traditional approaches that are worthy but apply modern technique to take them to the next level."
Sanchez's piece—striking, contemporary—has done much to cement the firm's image in a new market. Younger clients, in particular, are inclined to comment, notes Collins. "'Wow', they say, 'this doesn't look like a law firm at all'."
Leora Armstrong's Green Field, created for the firm in 2017, greets visitors to Dechert in London. Inspired by the Scottish west coast, the dramatic landscape of her childhood, Armstrong plays with a palette she sees in all our surroundings. "I want to understand the energy of color and the lines that edge it," she explains.
EMEA facilities director Steve House chose Christopher Hauser's modern edifices and moody skies as a sharp contrast, the German photographer's panoramic cityscapes placing the firm's riverside London offices in an appropriately urban context.
Celebrated Chinese graffiti artist Zhang Dali is one of the latest additions to Dechert's global art family. Dali, the first artist to make the cover of Time magazine since Jackson Pollock, created Bamboo as an examination of nature's dwindling lifespan in a rapidly urbanizing environment. The work, picked out by corporate partner Xiao Yong, now enjoys pride of place in Dechert's Hong Kong office.
For Dechert, art is about more than filling wall space—it is the heart and soul of the firm's real estate. Art provokes sensation and demands reaction, creating a synergy between creator and viewer. In Dechert's 27 offices around the world, these forces collude to create stimulating spaces that surprise and provoke. In refining its cultural take, the firm has itself pushed into fertile new terrain. Today, Dechert collects, adding steadily to its 765-work patrimony. Dechert commissions, giving voice to artists across the world. Dechert selects, choosing dynamic, individual pieces in sync with the firm's entrepreneurial culture. And Dechert cultivates, using art to reflect the identity of location and maintaining it at the center of the firm's very being. Former Dechert chairman Bart Winokur knows the New York office like the back of his hand. Winokur, who turned a regional U.S. law firm into a global presence, also transformed its cultural viewpoint. Art in the workplace should engage and inspire, he believes—more, it should energize all those who come into contact with it. Over 130 curated pieces now line the walls of the firm's Sixth Avenue offices. Turn down one corridor and Joan Mitchell's Trees— immense, lurid "scribble prints"—give way to the monochrome starkness of Kiki Smith's lunar photography, I See the Moon and the Moon Sees Me, Tidal Moon. "The contrast engages the mind," says Winokur. "Even if you don't know why, you say 'wow'." James Surls' Falling Flowers, a… Continue Reading

This year they have added some exciting new categories to ensure the awards evolve in parallel with the sector.
Don't miss out on this fantastic opportunity – Entries must be received by 11:00PM GMT Monday 1st June, 2015.
There are 29 categories spread across four sub-headings.


At the Scandal White House, there's always some crisis happening. Whether it's hostages abroad, a mole in the administration, or just a Mellie moment (you know what I'm talking about!), Fitz usually has his hands completely full. But being President isn't all work and no play, and this week, the writers were excited to place our characters at a gala event, to show just how nicely everybody cleans up.
The White House Correspondents' Dinner was the perfect setting for this. The Dinner, which takes place annually at the Washington Hilton, is held to honor excellence in journalism, to give out scholarships, and has taken on the form of a roast of the President.
The dinner is a chance for Fitz to poke fun at himself and make light of all the scandals his White House has endured over the past year. It's also the site of a few very high-powered negotiations. But let's not get ahead of ourselves; let me trace back to where all these negotiations begin.
But Leo Bergen will never get his meeting with Josie Marcus, because she happens to be already meeting with Olivia Pope. Yes, this week we get to see Olivia Pope back in campaign manager mode, doing what she does best. And there's a lot of managing that needs to happen on the Marcus campaign, because Josie admits to Olivia that she gave up a baby at 15. She hires Olivia on the spot to make sure this secret doesn't come out.
So, the OPA team heads out to Josie's hometown of Red Springs, Montana to do a little damage control and pay hush money to the necessary people. Of course, Cyrus Beene's people are already on the trail, trying to reveal Josie's secret while OPA is trying to hide it.
Good thing the Gladiators are one step ahead of Cyrus's people. They're able to influence the townspeople who know Josie's secret before they can talk to the news media and, in the words of one of Cyrus's operatives, Team Cyrus gets "Poped." Josie's secret is safe for now.
But Cyrus has another plan – he'll slip the secret to the Reston campaign, and let them do the damage. Meanwhile, during their trip, the Associates put it together that Josie's baby was never put up for adoption. The baby was kept by the Marcus family, and, in fact, the woman who was raised as Josie's sister is her own daughter.
Olivia advises Josie that the only way to handle this scandal is to come out with the info, to be up front with the voters. Josie wants to protect her sister. But on the debate stage, when Reston prompts her, Josie reveals the truth.
Josie's not happy with having spilled the information about her sister to the public, but it's clear that she's winning America's hearts with her honesty. Nonetheless, she fires Olivia.
Meanwhile, Olivia heads to the Correspondent's Dinner with Jake. And this is where all the juicy negotiations begin. Mellie pulls Olivia from her table to make a strong plea for Olivia to come back and run Fitz's re-election campaign, while Sally confronts Leo Bergen in the men's room about her own "hypothetical" plans for running. Our characters may be all cleaned up, but they're still getting dirty. The plotting and scheming never ends in the Scandal universe!
In the midst of all this, Olivia gets called back to the office to meet with Josie, who wants to take Olivia back as her campaign manager. What's a popular campaign manager to do? Will Olivia run Fitz's campaign or will she run Josie's? And will Sally really mount a challenge against Fitz?

Pleasanton: Man attacked them before he was…
Pleasanton: Man attacked them before he was shot by officer, police say
By Rick Hurd and Robert Salonga |
PUBLISHED: July 7, 2015 at 4:32 p.m. | UPDATED: July 28, 2018 at 7:27 a.m.
PLEASANTON — As the family of a 19-year-old San Jose man questioned whether lethal force was necessary in his shooting death by a Pleasanton officer, police department investigators say the man hit the officer numerous times in the face and the head before he was shot, first by tasers and later with a gun.
In a statement from the Pleasanton Police department, officials said the man identified as John Deming Jr. of San Jose, began acting aggressively as soon as officers arrived in response to a burlary alarm at an auto speciality store early Sunday morning.
According to the statement, Deming already threw a 50-pound floor jack through a glass window and was jumping from the tops of cars while screaming.
Police said officers deployed a bean-bag round — which missed — and a Taser that hit Deming in the back but failed to incapacitate him.
In the statement, police also identified the officer involved in the shooting as Daniel Kunkel, an 8-year veteran.
Deming's father said in an interview Tuesday he didn't believe lethal force was necessary to arrest their son, who recently graduated from Piedmont Hills High School in San Jose after a varsity football career.
His parents, John Sr. and Linda, have secured famed celebrity attorney Mark Geragos "to guide the family and ascertain the truth of how and why John was killed," according to a statement from the Los Angeles-based firm.
"He was just an unarmed kid," Deming Sr. said in an interview with this newspaper. "There was no need for this."
Deming's father, who said he was connected to the Geragos firm by a family friend, disputed the police portrayal of his son that has proliferated in local media. "He wouldn't kill a spider. Never bullied anybody, never talked bad about anybody," Deming Sr. said. "He wasn't aggressive. That just wasn't him."
The elder Deming said his son was church-going and planned to live with him in Oakdale to find work and practice music — he played bass, guitar and sang.
In his firm's statement, Geragos also took issue with what he described as heavy-handed treatment of Linda Deming when authorities served a search warrant at her home to retrieve potential evidence in the case.
Meanwhile, the father, a reserve police officer in Oakdale, is coming to grips with the sudden loss of his son amid what he deems "vague" circumstances.
"Johnathon was fun, helpful and outgoing, he always did the right thing," he said in the firm's statement. "He valued his friends and family and put others first. I will miss him every moment of every day."

In recent years financial inclusion has become an important policy goal in the developing countries. The definition of financial inclusion is however, not clear and varies from 'banking the unbanked' to 'branchless banking'. It is also increasingly viewed as a tool of poverty alleviation. Further, it enables the poor to be risk averse and allows investment in their health and education (Arora 2012). Financial inclusion has become all the more important as studies have shown that poor, despite their low incomes and small amount of funds available, actively manage and diversify their portfolios into different financial products even though outside the formal financial system (Collins et al. 2009).
Arora RU (2018) The links between financial inclusion and financial stability: A study of BRICS. In: Anand P, Comim F, Fennell S and Weiss J. (Eds) The Oxford Handbook of BRICS and Emerging Economies. New York: Oxford University Press. Released 18th April 2019.

We believe Houston is at a crossroads.
It's easy to talk about Houston as a booming city—unprecedented growth rates, incredible ethnic diversity, a Gross Area Product larger than the GDP of some nations, and sustained job development throughout the recent recession. However, these stats only paint half of a complicated picture.
It's much harder to talk about the starkly different reality in Houston's under-developed communities. Houstonians in areas like Fifth Ward, Sunnyside, Magnolia or one of the other neighborhoods that TOP and SEIU Texas members call home, may as well be living in another city. Our reality is one where one in five Houstonians live in poverty (closer to 1 in 3 for African Americans and Latinos) and over 60% of federal public assistance dollars go to working families to subsidize low wages. Construction workers building Houston homes can't afford their own and childcare providers struggle to afford care for their own children in order to get to work.
We can no longer afford to continue down this same path – it is unsustainable for our local economy and unacceptable for our community. Houston's next Mayor needs to hit the ground running with a proactive economic development plan to combat poverty and build economic security for all Houston families.
Together, Texas Organizing Project and SEIU Texas members have created an ambitious four-prong platform to leverage public dollars to grow the pool of quality jobs and raise standards, create neighborhoods of opportunity, make Houston a welcoming city for immigrants, and prioritize infrastructure projects in neighborhoods with greatest need.
A strong mayor can set requirements and create incentives for good jobs with living wages and benefits that enable working parents to sustain a family. Houston succeeds when every worker is paid enough to care for his or her family.
A strong mayor can lead a city-wide effort tomake sure all of our neighborhoods do not just survive, but thrive. That means investing in development projects in the most neglected neighborhoods that increases minority homeownership and creates affordable places to live with high quality of life. Every neighborhood means every neighborhood, no exceptions.
A strong mayor can create a municipal ID program to increase public safety and proactively welcome, engage and include vulnerable populations who face barriers in obtaining IDs accepted by Houston authorities like the police, independent school districts, and City departments.
A strong mayor can invest infrastructure dollars for drainage, street, and sidewalk improvements in areas where they are needed most, equalizing infrastructure investments across communities.

Maybe you've always wanted to be a Half-Elf Paladin? D&D gives you the chance (though not in the Red Box rules).
TM and © Wizards of the LLC. Images used with permission.
Fighter – a human of above-average strength who is skilled in combat. Fighters are typically responsible for taking on threats to protect the rest of the group.
Cleric – a cross between a fighter and a wizard. These humans are usually high in strength, dexterity and wisdom, so they can both fight and cast spells. Their spells come through meditation (accounting for the need for a high wisdom ability score).
Magic-user – a human with a high intelligence score. The magic-user is high in dexterity, for throwing balls of lighting accurately, and in intelligence, which is required for learning new spells from books.
Thief – a dexterous human who can pick locked doors and detect traps, making them invaluable. They tend to hang back during combat, not having much strength.
Dwarf – a 4-foot-tall nonhuman with a beard (both males and females alike), whose abilities are based on strength, constitution and their special ability to deflect magic. Dwarves are good fighters.
Halfling – a tiny, 3-foot, 60-pound demihuman character who is high in both dexterity and constitution. These abilities make halflings difficult to hit in combat, which makes them excellent fighters. They are also, like dwarves, capable of sustaining magic attacks better than human characters.
Elf – another smallish demihuman character, elves are kind of a cross between fighters and magic users, so they require high levels of both strength and intelligence. Elves also have infravision and can see 60 feet in the dark and can detect things like hidden doors.
Lawful – Law is the equivalent of good. In any given situation, a character with a lawful alignment will predictably put the safety and goals of the group first, ahead of his or her desires or safety.
Chaotic – Chaos is the opposite of law and is the equivalent of evil. A chaotically-aligned character will make choices based on furthering his or her own goals, without any regard for the group's wishes or wellbeing.
Neutral – This alignment is the most animalistic of the three; where law and chaos require higher-order considerations like self-sacrifice or manipulation, neutral alignments are based on the survival of the organism. Neither really "good" or "bad," the neutral character will fight with the group if that will help him survive or take off in retreat if need be.
Interestingly, only some playable characters are adept at speaking languages, but using Red Box rules, everyone can speak at least their alignment tongue. This allows characters of the same alignment to speak to each other without characters of other alignments understanding what is being said.
In other editions, you'll flesh all this out with a set of additional skills as well. Regardless of edition, it may help you to write out a backstory that gives your character some more personality and depth. This could even be something your DM asks you to do ahead of time, to help guide your game play and influence the overall story.
Next, we'll look at what happens once you're in that story – and what dice have to do with it.


May was challenging. June was murky. July was a blur. I'm only now beginning to emerge from a particularly rough spring and summer due to numerous unforeseen work and personal stressors. I'm back now, however, there have been some casualties, including my social life, my blog, and the most visual sign, my container herb garden. Yep, it was bad. I was so distracted, tending to my garden was the lowest item on the priority list. As result, I almost lost my parsley to the heat and my basil to seed. This weekend, I took the time to water, fertilize and sit with my garden. It was one of the most relaxing days I've had in months. Yes, sometimes things fall apart. And sometimes, the only thing you can do when they do is gather all the pieces and go from there.
Yep, just pick up and begin again from where you are.


For a chic, Summer's evening look I've been opting for a jumpsuit with heels. This wide leg jumpsuit from ASOS is simple, yet when paired with statement heels and a clutch bag it creates a well-put-together look.
I'm wearing the Sophia Webster Delphine Fruit Bootie in rose gold. They're incredible, I could just stare at them all day! There's nothing I love more than a statement shoe. They give the outfit a different dimension and the fluorescent heel adds a pop of colour.
I adore this white sailing boat clutch bag from The Whitepepper. Like the shoes, it's unusual and quirky yet still sophisticated and smart.

Are you thinking about getting pregnant and getting a child?
Do you have no insurance or is your health insurance running out? Having a baby, do high expenditures associated with a child stress you?
You'll find great news in this posting.
You will find out the way the latest Affordable Care Act presents two completely new alternatives for you to get covered.
Attention: The aforementioned legislation has been challenged, so take advantage of it right away.
The talk focuses primarily on constitutional concerns, which look considerable. The law, however, does apply now.
Make the most of it if you are expecting or want to become pregnant!
State medicaid programs and similar state insurances were formerly available however your earnings had to fall under poverty level to become eligible.
Other services that require evidence of earnings are Hill Burton variety, as well as free care services in lots of hospitals.
The brand new PP ACA legislation, nevertheless, offers two ways for one to get coverage regardless of salary.
1) An expectant female having father and mother who have health insurance from work, can enroll in a health insurance through him or her provided she's under twenty six years of age.
2) The preexisting condition insurance plan, PCIP, delivers reasonably priced health coverage that includes pregnancies.
You might need to hold on half a year not having coverage (there are methods around this).
On top of that, some evidence of denial of coverage from the insurance carrier needs to be supplied.
Only a few weeks back, premiums of PCIP plans nosedived. PCIP have become quite cheap.
For more resources on your alternatives for maternity insurance as well as in general, preexisting condition insurance, you can visit the web site maternity plans, section Greatest Health Insurance For Expectant Women.
Or just go straight to the url underneath insurance pregnant women for information on how to get affordable coverage even if you are currently pregnant.

Underground & Overground Limestone Lands
Journey into what is often referred to as England's finest limestone scenery! You start the journey at Ingleborough Estate Nature Trail near the quaint village of Clapham.
During the walk up to the cave with a local knowledgeable guide you learn all about the Farrer family, who have owned the land and have helped to shape the village of Clapham. There are lots of fantastic sites to see along the way; from a beautiful lake to plants that Reginald Farrer, the famous writer and plant collector, has planted along the trail.
You will also get to see The Money Tree, they say that money doesn't grow on trees, but take a close look at this yew tree and you may beg to differ! Hundreds of coins have been pressed into the trunk and branches; a contribution from those who believed they would be granted a wish or good health in return. Trees can live for thousands of years. The oldest ones in the UK are thought to date back to the 10th century.
A guided trip around the Cave awaits, and your guide will lead as you follow in the footsteps of James Farrer and his group of intrepid Victorian explorers, who broke down a limestone barrier in 1837 to find 1/2 km of passages, all explored with only candlelight for comfort!
Discover stunning limestone formations such as the Sword of Damocles, The Beehive, The Jockeys Cap and The Witches Fingers - but be careful not to get dripped on! Your guide will show you where the tooth of a Woolly Rhinoceros, extinct some 10,000 years ago, was found. They will also point out the passages that lead on beyond the public part of the showcave, ultimately joining up with Gaping Gill, where you will head after lunch.
In homage to those intrepid explorers, a Victorian style buffet lunch awaits you near the end of the Cave, before you will head back out to continue your day of further exploration around this stunning area!

The growing population means that you potentially have a bigger audience. Sadly, this is counteracted by the fact that there are more companies fighting for their custom. In addition to the other local businesses, there are thousands of online alternatives. Even if your venture deals with an offline market, those consumers still have access to the internet. You cannot fight the need for modern facilities any longer.
This doesn't necessarily mean that you have to start selling online. Nonetheless, a lack of internet presence is one of several signs that your business is stuck in the past. Whether it relates to production, management, or selling, you must overcome those problems. Otherwise, you leave the door open for competitors to win the war for new customers.
Likewise, it's imperative that you monitor what your competitors are doing in business. While you shouldn't steal ideas, morally or legally, this insight gives you the best shot of beating the field.
The general business arena has seen huge evolutions over the past 20 years or so. This has created opportunities for many people to become digital nomads or work from home. As a business, you can take advantage of these ideas by hiring people from all over the world. Whether it's to reduce staffing costs or improve your understanding of global audiences, those tricks can work wonders.
However, it's also worth noting that the physical business premises need a modern touch. From offices to stores or warehouses, commercial environments are home to expensive equipment. Meanwhile, they are crucial for customer and staff interactions. Experts at cochraneng.com/ can provide more info about the needs of a modern company, and the planning involved. Without those foundations, the journey ahead becomes difficult.
Apart from designing the workspace and kitting it out with safety and productivity in mind, you must think about presence. Location is vital when serving offline audiences. As for online ones, virtual addresses can work wonders.
Once upon a time, the pressure for immediate results was easily managed. Bank loans, low overheads, and consumer trends all worked in the favor of entrepreneurs. Meanwhile, the lack of online competition played a huge factor. Nowadays, though, it's either instant success or guaranteed failure.
First impressions are vital, which is why building a winning brand image is key. Visit feedough.com/ to gain inspiration. When combined with a knowledge of your target market, there's nothing to stop you achieving great things. Special deals can be a great way to get them interested too. Once they have experienced the company, it should become a lot easier to turn them into loyal clients.
It is possible to reduce the stress by finding ways to cut the costs. This can include switching suppliers or delivery firms or finding better deals on web hosting and insurance. Even so, you'll need to achieve quick success. Overcome those initial hurdles, though, and long-term profits should follow.

Russ Smith
Appendicitis at 61 is no lark.
Suddenly awake after a surgeon removed my inflamed appendix at 12:30 Thursday morning at Baltimore's GBMC, with my sons Nicky and Booker hovering, I felt no sensation in my arms, legs, neck, or funny bone. My mind, although not adequately cogent, flashed back to 1982, when my brother Doug was in a Los Angeles hospital, felled by Guillain-Barré Syndrome, with momentous effort scrawled on a pad, with his teeth, this message to me and our brother Gary: "Paralyzed. Doctors are butchers!" I haven't the dramatic flair of Doug—whose immune system was compromised during a two-year Peace Corps stint in pre-war Afghanistan in the early 1970s—and unlike my current malady, he was in far, far worse shape, recovering for almost a year, but for a minute I was indeed paralyzed. Perhaps the longest 60 seconds of my life, even as the doctor assured me the operation was a success, and the mere sight of my boys was comforting.
The horrific sensation passed, and as I struggled to speak, motioning with a finger for morphine, it felt like I'd been slugged 55 times in a bad man's alley by Sonny Liston in his prime. Even at my age, 61, the brain is an ever-mysterious organ, so it's hard to explain why—as the doctor and his associates spoke directly to me with pro forma reassurances—the song "Shapes of Things" blasted in my head. I harmonized with Rod Stewart, and had I been capable, would've played guitar with Jeff Beck. This is life in the recovery room of a hospital. Which, just 12 hours earlier, I hadn't bargained for!
A brief summary: that Sunday night, while watching the Red Sox upend the Yankees for a Fenway sweep, I was in the midst of eating a bowl of pasta when a wave of middling pain and nausea enveloped my body. I put the dinner aside—a shame, since my wife had made a fresh sauce with tomatoes from our garden—took many deep breaths, choked down about 10 slices of pineapple, and after the game hit the sack. I couldn't sleep: tossing and turning throughout the early morning hours, I figured something was amiss with the pasta's chicken. My stomach, aside from rich dairy products and medium portions of red meat, is solid: it's rarely a concern. In fact, the last time I vomited was over a decade ago, when, upon riding in a cab with Nicky to his school in Manhattan, he barfed all over the back seat, and, perhaps in spontaneous sympathy, I followed suit.
In any case, I went about my routine last Monday morning (9/19), wrote a story, edited features for Tuesday's Splice Today, read several chapters of Irish novelist Paul Murray's Skippy Dies in the late afternoon and then watched the Sox defeat the Orioles at Camden Yards. I ate a sandwich, took in an episode of the delightful Endeavour, and called it a night. Still felt like shit the next day, so reluctantly took my wife Melissa's advice—she's far more sensible than me in these matters—and visited my physician, who suggested a CT-Scan the following day if no improvement occurred. It didn't, and so Booker took me to GBMC for the barium milkshake treatment—which completely messed up my day—and we went home. Not 30 minutes later, Dr. Greene called and stunned me with the news of my compromised appendix, which he estimated would require a three-day hospital stay (Stunning, but better than the loose tech talk of colon cancer I overheard while getting the CT scan.) He said it hadn't burst, and beats me why, but I said, "So can I take care of this tomorrow?" Taken aback, this amiable and skilled doctor was momentarily tongue-tied, and then replied, "No! Go to the emergency room immediately and let me work the phones and try to find an available surgeon." He must've dipped into the favor bank, as I was operated upon later that night—hardly a given—and my appreciation for his effort is considerable.
Booker and Melissa had ferried me to GBMC—in Baltimore County, but just 20 minutes from our city home—and as Tom Petty sang many years ago (before he became a professional rock 'n' roll ambassador), the waiting was the hardest part. I don't mean to single out GBMC, as emergency rooms everywhere are jumbles of action, inaction, bureaucracy, live images of unfortunate souls who've been shot or in the last stages of life, barely hanging on in wheelchairs, nurses ignoring the incoming while engaged in gossip and form upon form given to patients to complete. But it was a sideshow of human frailty/incompetence that you just never see in those mind-numbing TV medical shows. I was reminded of the classic 1971 Paddy Chayefsky/George C. Scott film The Hospital, although when I jocularly mentioned this to the five or so attendants working on my admission, the blank stares made me feel both misanthropic and about 88 years old. Not incidentally, there was also the Sox-O's game on tap, and I was concerned that I'd be unable to keep up my text-exchange with a longtime friend from Tribeca, Rick, another Sox devotee from the early 60s. Booker texted Rick, aping my style admirably, so at least that was accomplished. Priorities!
My word, this really is rambling on, so apologies to those who've succumbed to merely reading headlines and blurbs, but it was my appendix and I'll get cranky and croaky if I want to. I blur out now when attempting to recall the chain of events before the knife hit my belly: I know Booker alerted Nicky—who appeared out of nowhere—and called my brothers Randy and Gary, and then he took a break from the maelstrom (as it happened, he and Nicky were flying to Italy in less than two days, and so this was a bollixing up of plans he didn't need), and Melissa was my wing gal. I'm a lucky guy.
I was taken to an upstairs floor where an ornery nurse barked at the ground floor employees who apparently hadn't prepped me properly. She said, "Why does this man still have his clothes on?" Dignity doesn't exist in hospitals, so when she ordered me to drop trou, including drawers, out in the open, I complied, although she did pull a curtain halfway around my temporary bed. As it turned out, this lady had a wicked sense of humor and we hit it off; then the surgeon, in street clothes, appeared, and he was friendly but on the job, although he grimaced when I apprised him that the Sox's budding star Andrew Benintendi had hit a three-run dinger to down the O's. He gave me another raft of forms to check off, mostly indemnification waivers in case I didn't wake up. I gave him a hairy eyebrow for his cavalier attitude on this front, although he explained he did it every day, and certainly didn't expect an untoward event once in my guts, but hey, it's a litigious world and he freely admitted he was covering his ass. I'd be remiss if not mentioning that this fellow, in contrast to so many of his colleagues, had none of that infuriating God complex, just a pro making a living.
Hmm, this is starting to exceed my command, so let's wrap up quickly. It's now Monday afternoon, I'm mildly buzzed by Oxycodone (which, speaking of no dignity, plays havoc with one's bowels), the boys just finished walking up and down the Spanish Steps, I'm exhausted looking at Twitter with all those "journalists" handicapping the Trump/Clinton debate, and my sense of time is in the gutter. Along with all those whiffle balls and Spaldeens that my Huntington neighbor Calmie Weiss used to dispose of back in '68 when they landed on his lawn. Calmie, an older man in the neighborhood, was actually pretty swell, and I shoveled his driveway during snowstorms and mowed his lawn in the summer, providing bank for trips to the bookstore. And his wife Rose… a doll, can I tell you? Maybe not now, but you've been warned.

I think, and perhaps this is unfair, that Noah only conducts protests online. Besides, he lives in Chicago. But thanks for the wishes, Tex.

Russell Seems like you have survived. That seems like a good thing. By my count, your people have won 11 in a row and have the two species of birds far behind. When I mashed my fingers i came out of surgery, woke up instantly and never had any pain. haha. And antibiotics kill the good bacteria in your gut that eat poop as well as the bad bacteria in your wound. Medicine has not reached the apex.

Преступле́ние агре́ссии или преступле́ние пр́отив м́ира  —  планирование, инициирование или осуществление крупномасштабного акта агрессии с использованием военной силы государства.

Определение
Определение и состав преступления являются спорными. Римский статут содержит исчерпывающий перечень актов агрессии, которые могут повлечь за собой индивидуальную уголовную ответственность, включая вторжение, оккупацию, аннексию с применением силы, бомбардировку и военную блокаду портов. Эти деяния пересекаются с понятием военной агрессии. Преступная агрессия, как правило, вменяется лицам, имеющим право формировать политику государства, а не тем, кто её проводит. Философской основой преступной агрессии является теория справедливой войны, согласно которой война, ведущаяся за территориальное расширение, несправедлива.

История
В 1928 году почти все страны мира присоединились к пакту Бриана-Келлога, впервые объявившему войну вне закона и запрещающий государствам использовать войну «в качестве инструмента национальной политики». Преступление агрессии было сформулировано советским юристом Ароном Трайниным после вторжения Германии в Советский Союз во время Второй мировой войны. Устав Международного военного трибунала предусматривал уголовную ответственность за ведение агрессивной войны, что стало основным предметом рассмотрения Нюрнбергского процесса. После Второй мировой войны руководителей стран «Оси» судили за агрессию в Финляндии, Польше и Китае на последующих Нюрнбергских процессах и Токийском процессе.  Ни до, ни после этого никто к ответственности за агрессию не привлекался.

Правовой аспект
Общепризнанно, что преступление агрессии существует в международном обычном праве. Определения и условия осуществления юрисдикции Международного уголовного суда в отношении этого преступления были приняты  суда в 2010 году на . Агрессия признана уголовным преступлением в соответствии со статутным законодательством некоторых стран и может преследоваться по суду в соответствии с универсальной юрисдикцией.

Агрессия является одним из основных преступлений в международном уголовном праве наряду с геноцидом, преступлениями против человечности и военными преступлениями. В 1946 году Международный военный трибунал постановил, что агрессия является «высшим международным преступлением», поскольку «она содержит в себе накопленное зло [всех остальных преступлений]». Стандартная точка зрения состоит в том, что агрессия является преступлением против государства, подвергшегося нападению, но её также можно рассматривать как преступление против лиц, которые были убиты или пострадали в результате войны.

Российская Федерация

В России преступления против мира и безопасности закреплены в разделе XII (гл. 34) Уголовного кодекса РФ и представляют собой самостоятельный институт уголовного права. Ст. 353 Уголовного кодекса РФ относит к преступлениям против мира планирование, подготовку, развязывание или ведение агрессивной войны. К преступлениям против человечества относятся убийства, истребление, порабощение, ссылка и другие действия, совершённые в отношении гражданского населения до или во время войны, или преследования по политическим, расовым или религиозным мотивам с целью осуществления преступления.

Юридическим источником норм об ответственности за такие преступления являются нормы международного права, содержащиеся в международных нормативно-правовых актах (уставах, конвенциях, протоколах, соглашениях, договорах и др.) о преступлениях международного характера.

Существует мнение, что статья о ведении агрессивной войны сформулирована в УК РФ рамочно и оставляет без внимания многие нарушения международного гуманитарного права. Правозащитники отмечают, что военные преступления в российском УК остались не криминализированы.

Объектом посягательства данной категории преступлений являются общественные отношения, которые обеспечивают международный мир, безопасность человечества и мирное сосуществование государств.

Объективная сторона данных преступлений почти всегда выражается в наличии деяния как единственного обязательного признака. Составы таких преступлений, кроме геноцида и экоцида, являются формальными, иначе говоря, не требуется наступления последствий, чтобы привлечь виновное лицо к ответственности.

Субъектом является лицо, достигшее 16-ти лет, за исключением наемничества, совершенного в отношении несовершеннолетнего, когда возраст лица повышается до 18-ти лет.

Субъективную сторону данных преступлений выражает вина в форме прямого умысла.
