Epstein paid suspected co-conspirators, which prosecutors suggest may have been to 'influence' them
By Matt Zapotosky
Matt Zapotosky
National security reporter covering the Justice Department
Soon after The Miami Herald began reporting on his favorable treatment by law enforcement in an early 2000s sex crimes investigation, jet-setting financier Jeffrey Epstein paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to people investigators had identified as possible co-conspirators — payments which federal prosecutors alleged Friday might have been meant to influence them.
The allegation came in a court filing by federal prosecutors in New York, who recently arrested and charged Epstein with sexually abusing dozens of young girls from 2002 to 2005. The arrest set off a chain of events that led to the resignation Friday of Labor Secretary Alex Acosta, who was the U.S. attorney in Miami during the earlier investigation of Epstein.
[Acosta said prosecutors wanted to guarantee Jeffrey Epstein would go to jail. The reality is more complicated.]
In seeking to keep the multimillionaire jailed pending trial, New York prosecutors argued Epstein had a history of trying to obstruct inquiries into his misdeeds, including those from journalists.
Prosecutors wrote they had obtained financial records showing in November 2018, two days after the Herald reported on a favorable plea arrangement Epstein received years prior, Epstein wired $100,000 to someone identified as a possible co-conspirator in the case. Three days after that, he wired $250,000 to another person identified as a possible co-conspirator, prosecutors wrote.
"Neither of these payments appears to be recurring or repeating during the approximately five years of bank records presently available to the Government," prosecutors wrote. "This course of action, and in particular its timing, suggests the defendant was attempting to further influence co-conspirators who might provide information against him in light of the recently re-emerging allegations."

The filing does not identify who received these payments. Epstein's prior agreement identifies as possible co-conspirators Sarah Kellen, Adriana Ross, Lesley Groff and Nadia Marcinkova, who each worked for or were otherwise associated with Epstein. Attempts to reach them Friday night were unsuccessful.
Epstein's defense attorneys did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
The suspected co-conspirators are not named, and prosecutors did not say in precisely what manner Epstein was trying to influence them .
Officials have credited the media with helping reignite the investigation into Epstein, who resolved the early 2000s sex crimes investigation by pleading guilty to two state charges and spending about 13 months in jail, with work-release privileges.
That arrangement, which had been widely criticized as too lenient, received new scrutiny this week after federal prosecutors in New York unsealed the sex trafficking charges against Epstein. Acosta, who approved the earlier deal, announced Friday he was stepping down as labor secretary amid the controversy.
Prosecutors' filing Friday was a response to defense attorneys' request that Epstein be let out on bail before his trial. The defense wrote in their court filing Epstein was willing to put up his Manhattan mansion and private jet as collateral, agree to home confinement and GPS monitoring, and pay for 24/7 security. They said Epstein intends to vigorously challenge the allegations.
Prosecutors maintain Epstein remained a significant flight risk and a danger to the community.
They said they had recently obtained records from a financial institution showing he was worth "more than $500 million" and earns at least $10 million a year. Because of that, they wrote, "there would be little to stop the defendant from fleeing, transferring his unknown assets abroad, and then continuing to do whatever it is he does to earn his vast wealth from a computer terminal beyond the reach of extradition."
Prosecutors wrote that, since the indictment was unsealed Monday, "several additional women, in multiple jurisdictions, have identified themselves to the Government as having been victimized by the defendant when they were minors," and dozens had called to provide information.
Multiple victims or their lawyers, prosecutors wrote, had asked them to seek that Epstein stay locked up, believing that if allowed out, he might try to harass or abuse them. They noted Epstein "has history of obstruction and manipulation of witnesses, including, as detailed herein, as recently as within the past year, when media reports about his conduct reemerged."
Within "recent months," they wrote, Epstein "paid significant amounts of money to influence individuals who were close to him during the time period charged in this case and who might be witnesses against him at a trial." Then they noted the payments made just after the Herald's reporting.
Past police reports, prosecutors wrote, also seem to tie Epstein to obstructive efforts. One police report said a parent of one of Epstein's victims was driven off the road by a private investigator, and another suggests an associate of Epstein's was offering by "buy victims' silence" during the previous investigation, prosecutors wrote.
"Indeed, the victim reported having been told: 'Those who help him will be compensated and those who hurt him will be dealt with,' " prosecutors wrote.

A Lufthansa plane came close to a drone on its approach to Warsaw, Poland.
A remotely piloted aircraft (Drone) was involved in a near-miss with a Lufthansa jet over Warsaw.
Polish officials say the plane nearly collided with a drone.
The Lufthansa pilot was the first to report the plane to the Polish officials at the airport, who then promptly changed the plane's approach to Warsaw international airport from Munich, Germany. Polish officials say the drone should not have been around.
The spokesman for Warsaw's airport, Przemyslaw Przybylski, said Tuesday that the incident happened Monday afternoon around 4 p.m., and the drone was within 100 metres of the plane arriving from Munich.
He said the near-collision occurred about 5 kilometres from the airport.
He added that police are investigating the incident to determine who operated the drone, which should not have been where it was.
Mikolaj Karpinski, with the Polish Air Navigation Services Agency, told the TVN24 broadcaster that the pilots immediately reported the drone to air traffic controllers, who redirected the plane's path. Karpinski said he considered the incident serious.

BC Ferries joins the Whale Trail
VICTORIA – BC Ferries is proud to join the Whale Trail, a series of shore-based locations to view marine mammals along the Pacific Coast. In partnership with the Whale Trail and the BC Cetacean Sightings Network, with funding support from Fisheries and Oceans Canada, BC Ferries installed interpretive signs at three of its terminals where whales may be seen. Signs are now in place at Tsawwassen terminal in Metro Vancouver, Little River terminal in Comox and Langdale terminal on the Sunshine Coast.
The Whale Trail is a non-profit organization based in Seattle, Washington, with a mission to inspire appreciation and stewardship of orcas, other marine mammals and the marine environment. In British Columbia, BC Cetacean Sightings Network manages the citizen science program that encourages reporting sightings of cetaceans (whales, dolphins and porpoises) to gain valuable information about species distribution patterns. BC Ferries vessels have been regularly reporting sightings to the BC Cetacean Sightings Network since 1975.
"We work with scientists and whale researchers on a variety of initiatives and joining the Whale Trail is another way our customers can learn about cetaceans in our waters and BC Ferries' ongoing support for research and conservation," said Corrine Storey, BC Ferries' Vice President & Chief Operating Officer. "We are committed to helping advance awareness and to sharing the ocean space with whales, dolphins and porpoises."
BC Ferries has been working with the Port of Vancouver Enhancing Cetacean Habitat and Observation (ECHO) program since 2014. BC Ferries also partnered with Port of Vancouver and Ocean Wise to develop a "Whales in our Waters" tutorial for mariners in 2019 and contributed to the "Mariners Guide to Whales, Porpoises and Dolphins of Western Canada" with the Coastal Ocean Research Institute and Port of Vancouver in 2016. Joining the Whale Trail is one more way BC Ferries is helping to build awareness of local whale species to contribute to their conservation for generations to come.
While viewing the new terminal signage, customers are reminded of the requirement for customers to wear non-medical masks or face coverings at terminals and while on board ferries.

This place had been recommended to me. But, No! My experience was of a very average Bangladeshi curry house.
so mr david thanks for your review for feb 2019... so why have you now decided to comment about us, after 2 months..?? I think you must be mistaken with another restaurant .
Popped in for a meal on Saturday lunch time. We were meet with great food and the service was excellent. The waiter was a great help ,when we asked about different menu choices.
The staff were really nice, really patient and flexible with the food cause my family is really picky. The ambience was chilled, not too loud it was just right. Second time going really enjoyed ourselves and best of all you can take your leftovers home!
thank you very much for your kind comments ... hopefully we see you again .
Disappointed to be waiting over an hour & 20 minutes for food.

Easing into Stories
First, the Song of the Day
Today in the morning classes (which, unfortunately, I was not able to video because of technical issues), we created stories based on characters the class had created. In French 1, we told a story about a character created by a student in class – Edgar the Eyebrow, whose nickname is Eddie. In French 2, we told a story about a UPS box named Carl. In Spanish 1, we told a sto
ry about one of our One Word Image characters – Larry el Cerebro.
The stories went well, kids enjoyed them, but I noticed in reviewing the artists' work that they were having a hard time keeping up with the action. In this four-panel drawing of Larry el Cerebro's story, you can see that they were not able to finish.
I also noticed that I was tired. It is hard work transitioning them to stories. Lots of moving parts. The Story Driver needs to be trained and communicated with during the story. The actors need to be trained, especially in the skills of sitting still and acting as a visual aid. The class needs to be trained, on how to work together to co-create the story and not argue too long about the story details. So much going on!
At least with this storytelling system, I do not have to think about target structures too. But I do have to think about staying in bounds and making the language comprehensible, going slow, rephrasing their suggestions into language that the class can understand. Pointing and pausing, talking slowly, staying in bounds…there's a lot going on up in old Teener's head.
So I made the executive decision at lunch to change the levels of the story and the artists' work for my two after-lunch classes. I made a new FIVE-level story outline for my Story Drivers and a TWO-panel poster for the Artists.
You know what? It was a lot easier to keep all the balls in the air, and everyone felt more comfortable and successful.
See the results in our sixth period story, the tale of Boberito, a One Word Image character created by the class who is a huge purple burrito. In this story we learn that Boberito unfortunately has some job-related problems.
In seventh period, we told another five-level story using a One Word Image of Eminem, an M&M who is a rapper and who, sadly, ate a bag of M&Ms at a fancy restaurant and then realized he had eaten his fellow M&Ms including his own family. Luckily, he went to another restaurant in a hotel where a doctor induced vomiting and his family is now safely back in their bag. The acting was so good that I had the videographer tape the two actors for our end-of-year class video. In twelve years of working with middle schoolers, I have NEVER heard such amazing barfing sound effects! That there is TALENT.
Part Four (the barfing part)
What I noticed in reviewing that last video is that I said necesita vomitar and the kids had NEVER heard either of the words but I asked what did he say, and they were able to say "he needs to vomit" because of the context. Little moments like this just reinforce my hunch that these stories with emergent language, because the language emerges at the very moment it is needed to drive the story forward, are "stickier" for kids' memories. It just may well be that they are MORE EFFICIENT because of that, despite the debate that has been ongoing as to whether or not we "have time" to use non-targeted language in the school setting. (To me it is a moot point as the brain does not recognize if it is in school or not…language acquisition still proceeds the natural way, at its own pace. I am looking forward to hosting Drs. Stephen Krashen and Beniko Mason and Claire Ensor at a roundtable on this topic- non-targeted input – next week at our COFLT-WAFLT conference.)
It is also kind of amazing to me how simple it is to create unique and interesting stories when you base the characters on the kids' ideas, and have a simple track to drive the story train down. All you have to do is add dialogue, thinking, directors cues (such as mira profesionalmente or llora como un bebé) and easily drive the story from the beginning to the end, relying on the kids' endless creativity and talents. Smiles generally ensue. And now we have nice, tidy stories to write up next time! I am so grateful to have learned from working with Ben Slavic, who hit upon this seemingly-simple way to craft stories with the class.

AML Football Week 5: Gators down feisty Terrors to stay unbeaten
October 4, 2012 October 5, 2012 portsports
OTTO-ELDRED TERRORS (0-5)
PORT ALLEGANY GATORS (5-0)
AIRTIME: Port Allegany quarterback Matt Bodamer leaps over diving Otto-Eldred defensive end Seth Bigley just before uncorking a 66-yard touchdown pass to Nick Conway.

The Port Allegany Gators came into last Saturday afternoon's Homecoming game flying high, averaging 56 points and more than 500 yards of offense, and most observers expected those trends to continue against winless Otto-Eldred.
Port High still won handily, putting together a workmanlike 42-16 victory, but the Terrors earned some respect – including from Gator coach Mike Bodamer.
"They really wanted to play hard today, and I think they did," Bodamer said. "I was impressed with them. Like I told him (O-E coach Virgil Graham), I haven't seen too many kids handle Nick (Budd). I looked out there a couple of times and their kids were controlling our defensive line, which I haven't seen all year. Good physical team. I was impressed with them. That's definitely a good sign for them."
The Terrors, who came into the game averaging 19 passing attempts per week, were content to pound the ball at the Gator defense while burning time off the clock.
"We just wanted to slow the game down a little bit and kind of take the ball out of their offense's hands as much as we could," Graham said, "and I think we did a good job of that. A few times our drives stalled a little bit, but that's just because Port's defense is so strong – when their back's against the wall, they're able to make the play. But all in all, they definitely didn't have the ball as much as they're used to having it, or for as long as they had it. I think slowing that tempo down really messed with their mindset and the way that they like to play football, and that's up-tempo all the time."
Then again, when you're facing an offense as talented as Port's is, any amount of time is too much. The Gators proved that again this week, scoring on six of their first eight possessions to put together a 42-0 lead before the starters sat down at the end of the third quarter.
Nick Conway was a perfect 4-for-4 – four catches, four touchdowns, including this 73-yard sprint past the Gator sideline.
Four of Matt Bodamer's six touchdown passes went to Nick Conway, who scored every time he touched the ball en route to a career-high 198-yard afternoon. The Otto-Eldred coaches did their best to confuse Bodamer – even dropping all 11 defenders into coverage at one point, leaving the Port quarterback enough time to finish his math homework before finding Conway deep for the game's first score – but he still finished the game 16-for-22 for 377 yards to move past Kyle Smith (Lancaster Catholic) into third place on the PIAA career passing list.
"I don't know what that was," coach Bodamer said of the Terrors' exotic defenses, "but when you give Matt all day, he's going to find somebody regardless. I just told him to run the ball, but he said 'I didn't know what to do – there wasn't anybody coming.' I've never seen that either, but they got away from it quick. Different philosophy, I guess."
With the score already 14-0 when Trent Neal's fumble recovery set up a Tyce Miller touchdown catch – his 29th, which tied him with Clearfield's Wes Dahlen for second place on the D-9 career list – the Gators actually found the end zone three times on their third possession before Conway's diving catch at the goal line stood. A fumble at midfield stopped their next drive, but one play after Budd stuffed O-E running back Sam Colebert an inch short of a first down at the Gator 27, the Bodamer-to-Conway connection struck again for a back-breaking 73-yard touchdown to make the score 28-0 at the break.
It was Neal's turn to take over on the first drive of the second half, carrying the ball three times for 34 yards and catching two passes, the second an 18-yard touchdown to start the clock running. The Gators would add seven more points midway through the third quarter, with Bodamer leaping over a diving passrusher to hit Conway in stride down the sideline on a 66-yard catch-and-run, before two Colebert touchdown runs of 5 and 35 yards completed the scoring.
While the undefeated Gators will take the win and move on, Graham saw plenty of positives in his team's performance.
"Like we told our kids, it's still an L in the win-loss column," he said, "but when you play teams like this of this stature you've got to find little wins. One of our goals was to get a few sacks, and we got a few sacks. One of our goals was to get an interception; well, we fell short on that one. We wanted to kind of limit their offensive production, and I thought we did a pretty good job of that. We wanted to put a few points up, and we did that. So it's finding those little wins. It's not a win in the win column, but it's something we can build on and move on for next week.
"You could see the spirit of the kids wasn't broken today. They feel like their performance was good, and I can't disagree with that. I thought they did a heck of a job. For what we have and what Port has, I thought we did a heck of a job for what we have. We've got a few games down the road here that are winnable games, and I'm hoping that this will let us roll on positively, and see what happens."
Port (5-0) stays at Gator Field for the second of three consecutive Saturday-afternoon kickoffs, hosting ancient archrival Smethport (3-2) before traveling to Sheffield next week. Quarterback Clay Schuler and running back Karl Lightner provide a strong 1-2 punch in the ground game for the Hubbers, who retained their grasp on second place in the AML North following their 35-14 win over Cameron County last Friday night.
"Little sloppy – Homecoming (the long halftime delay) caused some problems, and blowing teams out so much, that's caused some problems, and we had some personnel issues today that I didn't really care for," coach Bodamer said. "So we'll address those and move on to Smethport, because Smethport's a lot better run team than they have here, and our run defense definitely wasn't even close to what it needs to be."
NOTES: Port captains for the game were Bodamer, Bova, Budd, and Neal, while Otto-Eldred sent out Vaughn, Ryan West, Nate Rodgers, and Dillon Sutton … Each team turned the ball over twice on fumbles, with Neal and Christian Moses recovering for the Gators and Vaughn and Andrew Lawrence for the Terrors … O-E notched three sacks, one each by Ryan West, Jake Wichert, and Rodgers … Colebert led all rushers with 17 carries for 95 yards, while Neal pounded out 75 yards on eight attempts for the Gators.
NUMBERS: Bodamer now has 113 TD passes, five behind Kyle Smith's record, and 8,641 career yards. Next up: Brendan Nosovitch (Allentown Central Catholic, 9,249).
LOOKING AHEAD: Saturday afternoon's Senior Day game against Smethport (1:30 p.m., WHKS-FM 94.9, redzonemedia.com) will mark the renewal of one of the oldest football rivalries in this part of the state. According to Reporter-Argus archives, teams from the two schools played as early as 1910 and at least once per season since 1925, with huge crowds attending games traditionally held on Armistice Day or Thanksgiving through the '20s and '30s. The Gators boast a 57-37-7 lead, and a Port victory this year would match the longest winning streak (Smethport 1989-99) in the long series.

Further proof that you can learn useful stuff from Twitter: Coles online shopping and delivery service points out that if you order groceries online and get them delivered, you don't have to put up with them being dumped on the doorstep.
Coles.com.au can deliver to your kitchen bench - just ask the driver when we arrive with your order.
Of course, if you need the exercise, lugging in the groceries isn't a bad idea, but it's nice to have the option.
What's even better is that if they make a mistake and deliver you say, 800 grams of salami sticks instead of 8 individual sticks, as they did to me, then they let you keep them for free. Typically my kids went right off salami sticks immediately after that but it's still a nice thought. I like it best when they have a special offer and deliver free. Not sure I want any booted delivery men near my kitchen bench but again, it's the thought that counts.
Our household has been using Coles online for a few months now and I can't praise them highly enough. It took a few orders to get used to the site and into the swing of things but we are delighted with the delivery people, the contact staff on the phone, the free samples that are added from time to time and the overall reliability of the service. I was worried about use-by dates not matching my expectations prior to trying them but those concerns proved totally unfounded - was very impressed.
Tell you what, some of those Coles delivery girls are total hotties. Mostly Kiwis though but you can't have everything eh?
The service is convenient but it not without problems, sometimes the expiry dates are a bit too close, a key ingredient can come up missing, you only know something is out of stock after its too late to get a suitable replacement or order something else, on the bright side shopping while you surf the net is pretty good, no weird trolley-aisle moments or lugging toilet roll packs. 3 stars.

In December 1996, 14 members of the terrorist group Tupac Amaru Revolutionary Movement raided the Japanese ambassador's home in Lima. The TARM took the approximately 600 guests hostage for the next four months. On 22 April 1997, State armed forces raided the compound, killing the 14 terrorists, and liberating the remaining hostages. As this event was part of a non-international armed conflict, rules of international humanitarian law, such as Common Article 3 of the 1949 Geneva Conventions, applied to the situation. While the majority of the terrorists were lawfully targeted and killed, evidence surfaced that three may have been captured alive by the State, and then subsequently killed, in contravention of Common Article 3. The Court also faulted the State for failing to adequately investigate the crime scene and deaths of these individuals in a timely manner. The Court found that the State had violated the Inter-American Convention on Human Rights. With respect to arbitrary deprivation of life, the Court stated that this would occur when the use of force by the state is illegitimate, excessive, or disproportionate.

Native PP11 Pro Value Ops Editor - Any Documentation?
@Uli-Klumpp Thanks, but I was asking about the Value Ops tab and not the Keyed Dependencies tab. I'm looking for information specifically on Value Ops. There doesn't seem to be docs or videos about this tab. My working assumption is that this is for old skool ERC functionality, prior to dependent parameters, that prior to P11 Pro required a third party tool such as Netherwork's Spawn. So is there any existing information on this tab? If not, could we get some good info made?


Ernst and Lovich's thoroughly revised edition of this classic reference provides the most updated information ever assembled on the natural histories of North American turtles. From diminutive mud turtles to giant alligator snappers, two of North America's most prominent experts describe the turtles that live in the fresh, brackish, and marine waters north of Mexico. Incorporating the explosion of new scientific information published on turtles over the past fifteen years – including the identification of four new species – Ernst and Lovich supply comprehensive coverage of all fifty-eight species, with discussions of conservation status and recovery efforts.
Each species account contains information on identification, karyotype, fossil record, distribution, geographic variation, habitat, behavior, reproduction, biology, growth and longevity, food habits, populations, predators, and conservation status. Turtles of the United States and Canada includes range maps for freshwater and terrestrial species, a glossary of scientific names, an extensive bibliography for further research, and an index to scientific and common names.
Logically organized and richly illustrated – with more than two hundred color photographs and fifty-two maps – Turtles of the United States and Canada remains the standard for libraries, museums, nature centers, field biologists, and professional and amateur herpetologists alike.
Carl H. Ernst, professor emeritus at George Mason University and a research associate at the Smithsonian Institution, is author of Venomous Reptiles of North America.
Jeffrey E. Lovich is deputy director of the Southwest Biological Science Center and coeditor of Biological Diversity: Problems and Challenges.
Ernst and Lovich were coauthors, with Roger W. Barbour, of the first edition of Turtles of the United States and Canada.
"For all turtle aficionados, this comprehensive review is the first of its kind published in the last twenty-five years."
"[A] monumental work [...] the standard reference to North American turtles for the next generation of biologists. Every serious vertebrate biologist on the continent will want a copy."
