Law firm, Field Fisher Waterhouse LLP, has reported the recovery of £405,750 to a nine-year-old girl, who was injured in 1998 whilst under the care of the Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust; the highest reported settlement in an Erb's Palsy case of its type.
The claimant was injured during birth as her head was delivered but there were difficulties in delivering the shoulders, known as shoulder dystocia. Field Fisher Waterhouse acted for the claimant in the case that the antenatal care was negligently managed, and there was a failure to deliver by caesarean section. There were further negligent acts and omissions in the obstetric management, including inter alia – the application of strong traction to her head.
As a consequence, she suffered a severe traumatic injury to the nerves supplying her right arm, causing paralysis. She underwent four extensive surgeries to attempt to improve function in her arm in the first seven years of her life. Despite this the claimant has been left with a permanent disability and the right limb remains for all practical purposes, functionless.
The claimant's mother brought the clinical negligence case against the Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust. Samantha Critchley, a solicitor in the Personal Injury and Medical Negligence Group at Field Fisher Waterhouse, acted for the claimant.
The hospital accepted that there were elements of the management of the labour, which were not appropriate and admitted negligence in the claimant's care and invited proposals for settlement. After a lengthy negotiation the amount of settlement was agreed, in principle, between the parties.
At an Infant Settlement Hearing at the Royal Courts of Justice on 28 July, the terms of settlement were approved. In addition to the substantial damages recovered by Field Fisher Waterhouse for the claimant, the hospital was also ordered to pay the claimant's legal costs.
The claimant was represented by Henry Witcomb of 1 Crown Office Row.
Law firm, Field Fisher Waterhouse LLP has recovered a substantial sum in compensation on behalf of Matthew Ellerbeck, who sustained serious brain damage after contracting herpes at the age of six.
In 1997, Matthew suffered a prolonged convulsion, and was taken in an ambulance to the A&E department of the Royal London Hospital. Herpes Simplex Encephalitis (HSE) should have been suspected, and aciclovir (an antiviral drug) should have been administered immediately. However the drug was not given to Matthew until over 30 hours later.
As a result of this delay, Matthew sustained serious brain damage. He is now 17, and as a result of the brain damage he suffers daily epileptic attacks and severe learning difficulties, as well as serious attention and behavioural problems.
Matthew's mother, Susan Culling, brought the case against Barts & the London NHS Trust on his behalf in the High Court. Richard Earle, a lawyer in the Personal Injury and Medical Negligence Group at Field Fisher Waterhouse, conducted Matthew's case to settlement.
The hospital accepted the delay in treating the HSE was negligent, but it argued that most of the damage and subsequent consequences to Matthew would have occurred anyway.
The case had gone on for nine years, in which time a number of concessions were made by the hospital, when a settlement was agreed two months before the case was due to go to trial.
Following this long legal battle, Field Fisher Waterhouse recovered substantial damages. This includes provision for periodical (annual) payments to be made for the rest of Matthew's life to cover his care and accommodation needs.
Matthew was represented by James Badenoch QC and Dennis Matthews of Counsel.

Asesinato
El 10 de junio de 2016, durante una firma de autógrafos después de una presentación en el Teatro The Plaza Live de Orlando, la cantante fue herida con arma de fuego por un hombre de 27 años, presunto fan identificado como Kevin James Loibl, quien efectuó 5 disparos contra ella. El hermano de Grimmie fue de inmediato contra el hombre armado, que durante la lucha forcejeó, se disparó en la cabeza y murió al instante. Grimmie fue inmediatamente hospitalizada de gravedad en el Centro Médico Regional de Orlando con heridas de dos balas. Junto a la confirmación del Departamento de Policía de Orlando, el representante de la cantante anunció su fallecimiento, el 10 de junio de 2016 a las 23:00, a los 22 años. Una autopsia reveló que Grimmie recibió un disparo en la cabeza y dos en el pecho. Su muerte fue declarada un homicidio.

El Departamento de Policía de Orlando informó que Loibl no parecía conocer a Grimmie personalmente, pero había conducido 170 km desde otra ciudad de Florida con la intención de enfrentarse a ella y causarle algún daño; al parecer este era un fan de la cantante. La policía dijo que el hombre portaba dos armas cortas, dos cargadores adicionales con municiones y un cuchillo de caza.

El hecho ocurrió 2 días antes de  la masacre de la discoteca Pulse, que ocurrió en la misma ciudad, exactamente a 10 minutos del Teatro Plaza Live donde Grimmie fue asesinada. Debido a estos hechos, muchos espectáculos programados en la ciudad fueron cancelados por temor a nuevos actos de violencia y la ciudad de Orlando fue puesta bajo estado de emergencia.

Reacciones en los medios
Cuando los informes del suceso surgieron por primera vez, #PrayforChristina fue tendencia en Twitter. Después de que se confirmara oficialmente su muerte, se sumó #RIPChristina como tendencia que los fanes de Christina llevaron a las redes sociales para expresar una ola de dolor y enfado. The Voice, en respuesta a la noticia, rindió una mención a Grimmie en su página oficial de Twitter:

Su exentrenador dentro del programa The Voice, Adam Levine, escribió en su cuenta de Twitter:

Otros miembros del elenco del programa The Voice como Christina Aguilera, Blake Shelton, Usher, Pharrell Williams y Gwen Stefani también enviaron condolencias, así como el presentador de dicho programa, Carson Daly.

El ganador de la novena edición del mismo reality, Jordan Smith, publicó en su cuenta de Twitter:

La finalista de la novena temporada de The Voice, Amy Vachal, escribió:

El grupo Before You Exit con quien Grimmie había actuado antes de los disparos, tuiteó:

Su amiga de mucho tiempo y compañera de gira, Selena Gomez, escribió:

El 17 de junio de 2016, la cantante y entrenadora del programa The Voice, Christina Aguilera, lanzó el sencillo «Change» en honor a las víctimas de la masacre de la discoteca Pulse de Orlando y, según informó en entrevista radial al programa On Air de Ryan Seacrest, también en memoria de la fallecida concursante del programa de talentos.

El 25 de abril de 2017, el cantante y entrenador del programa The Voice, Adam Levine, le hizo un homenaje en uno de los episodios del programa al cual asistió la familia de la cantante.

North Dakota Filmmaker Unveils Teddy Roosevelt Documentary
by: Renee Cooper
A self taught filmmaker and one man band visited the North Dakota Heritage Center to debut his latest documentary, "Being Roosevelt".
20-30 people gathered in the Great Plains Theater as Samuel Sprynczynatyk and his significant other, Medora Frye, introduced their work.
The 14 minute documentary takes place in Medora, where a select group of people gather to reenact Teddy Roosevelt and his family.
The filmmaker says he came up with the idea when he met Teddy Roosevelt in a public restroom.
Sprynczynatyk adds, "I started talking to this man next to me that was also washing his hands, and out of nowhere he became Teddy Roosevelt and started talking to me like Roosevelt. It was awesome. So I talked to him for about 20 minutes and that's where I realized that this world exists, these people exist and there are stories behind what they do."
"Being Roosevelt" is now available free online. You can view the film at www.samuelspry.com

A few weekends ago I returned to SGL 57 and Flat Top. I wanted to see if there was any fall color remaining at the higher elevations. It had also been a year since I was at Flat Top, and it was time to return.
Wes joined me and we made the hike up from the White Brook parking area. The sky was overcast. On the hike up, we saw a bear and two or three cubs higher up the slope. We made our way to Flat Top Vista and the clouds retreated, revealing blue skies. Yellow and gold clung to the valley, but the higher elevations were mostly bare of color.
We bushwhacked up the plateau, reaching some cliffs and ledges. We followed these ledges with their small caves and crevices. Soon we reached the largest cave. Wes went in, travelling deep into the rock and the darkness, his headlamp offering the only light. He went a ways back and soon returned, reporting the cave continued even further. I presumed any bear would be out feeding instead of sitting in a cave, but I still didn't feel like entering the dark void. Maybe some other time.
Our hike continued along the rim of cliffs and soon we were at a fascinating rock house where a narrow shelf of bedrock creates a roof over a "room". Another overhang was nearby. I dropped down into the crevasse to explore the rock house and stepped on a large boulder. The boulder wobbled with ease and I scurried off as soon as I could. I had visions of the boulder shifting and trapping my foot. I wasn't quite in the mood for having my foot trapped and entertaining the thought of gnawing or amputating it free like that guy had to do with his arm in Utah. Thankfully, I had someone with me.
We entered the rock house and it was a very scenic place. Cushions of moss and draperies of ferns covered the rock. A spring dripped nearby. These rocks had been separating for eons, and will continue to do so.
From there we made our way around the rim of the plateau, exploring more of the boulders and crevices. We pushed through the forest and soon reached the western rim and a series of cliffs and deep spruce forests that mark the beginning of several vistas of the Endless Mountains. The views were beautiful as ridges and mountains disappeared into the Mehoopany Creek valley. There was no sign of development, everything appeared untouched. This place seems so wild and primeval. The sun glistened in the deep blue sky, chilled with a constant wind.
We hiked down to the creek and took a break at a waterfall. The hike brought us through hemlock forests and across one of the balds. We were soon back into the hemlocks before reaching the headwaters of White Brook. The understory in the forest still had a lot of color with various shades of yellow. The long descent down the brook followed as the sun set across the Mehoopany Creek valley.
The northern part of SGL 57 is among the most scenic and diverse places in the entire Mid-Atlantic. I can only hope it remains that way.
Part of this hike is described as Hike No. 14 in Hiking the Endless Mountains.

Last week, the fight between Apple and pugnacious hedge fund investor David Einhorn of Greenlight Capital went all flat when he withdrew a lawsuit after the company yanked a proxy proposal that would have allowed shareholders to vote on eliminating preferred stock from the company charter.
But the real issue at the core of the fight — the massive mountain of $137 billion in a cash hoard that Apple holds and that Einhorn wants it to distribute in some fashion to shareholders — still remains.
It's not clear what Apple will do now, especially since a lot of it is overseas. But execs have indicated that they are evaluating what to do to best serve nervous investors, who have bidded the stock down 40 percent since the fall. While it's not clear what that will be, it's also pretty likely Apple will do something.
* Apple could purchase 1,567,506 Tesla Model S Performance vehicles with 85 kWh battery and a carbon fiber spoiler at $87,400 each, which would effectively allow CEO Elon Musk to buy the New York Times (a bargain at $1.42 billion!) and use it as his own personal blog.
* It could buy 17.9 houses for each Yahoo employee located near its Sunnyvale, Calif., HQ, so they could be super-close to work, per CEO Marissa Mayer's wishes. That breaks down to 206,015 overall homes for 11,500 workers, at a median sales price of $665,000 for the area.
* Apple could acquire a big chunk of the Internet all at once, including Groupon ($3.36 billion), Yahoo ($25.95 billion), Facebook ($61.7 billion), Twitter ($10 billion), LinkedIn ($18.32 billion), Yelp ($1.47 billion), AOL ($2.81 billion), Pandora ($2.09 billion), Zynga ($2.69 billion), OpenTable ($1.32 billion) and, finally, Pinterest ($2.5 billion). Phew.
* It could pay Andrew Mason's $378.36 severance after getting jacked as CEO of Groupon 364,013,179 times over.
* Apple could pay for 97,857 parties for Yammer's David Sacks's 40th birthday (at $1.4 million each). Snoop Dogg included.
* Apple could buy $329 16 gigabyte Wi-Fi iPad minis for 416,413,374 people — everyone in the U.S. (315,429,318), plus France and Spain.
* Or it could just give the 7,069,909,686 people on the planet $19.38 each, and call it a day.
* Apple could use $1 bills to carpet an area of 560 square miles, which would more than cover Silicon Valley.
* Finally — and I think this would be a nice gesture to make up for calling his efforts a "silly sideshow" — Apple could give Einhorn 15.56 times the value of his $8.8 billion fund.

Neville Gafa makes it to Rai Uno's Porta a Porta, and someone asks why is Malta in the EU?
2018-06-19T19:37:55+02:00Tue, 19th Jun '18, 19:37|
This is an extract from Rai Uno's Porta a Porta that covered Ivan Grech Mintoff's testimony in the courts about the massive Libya scam in which more than 80,000 visas are believed to have been "sold" from Malta's consulates in Libya to people willing to pay for them, including terrorists and militiamen.

Pilatus Bank pays Maria Efimova … two years late
Malta's Labour office has contacted Maria Efimova to inform her Pilatus Bank has settled her outstanding salary from when she worked for three unpaid months as executive assistant to Ali Sadr. In the ironic turn of events, Pilatus Bank have effectively admitted Maria Efimova's complaint against them was justified and she was indeed owed payment. [...]

Twilight of the gods
It is truly awful how badly the leadership of the PN is handling itself. There's clearly a stubborn bunker atmosphere, barking orders to mobilise formations that exist only on a map, taking comfort from self-serving flattery, and seeking solace in imaginary magnanimity from the enemy as traditional support is deemed unworthy of its leadership. I [...]
Become a citizen. If you can.
In the heat of the French Revolution, the leaders of that upheaval did not sit down to write a charter about the rights of French people. They wrote instead the 'Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen'. Universal rights is by no means a universal understanding of what citizenship should be about. But [...]

Plastics Archives - Universal Polymer & Rubber Ltd.
In 2013, Ohio had a manufacturing output of $99.83 billion of goods, the fourth-largest output in the nation. Ohio has been in the top five by manufacturing output every year since 2008.
This output accounts for 17.66% of the total gross state output.
If Ohio's manufacturing sector was its own country, it would rank 64th in the world, with a greater output than countries like Belarus, Sri Lanka, and many more.
Manufacturing employed over 682,600 people in 2014, the third most of any state.
Since 2009, Ohio has added over 68,000 new manufacturing jobs.
Manufacturing jobs in Ohio pay well – while the average annual compensation for all non-farm employment was $46,654 annually in 2014, for manufacturing, the average compensation was $69,951.
Ohio is home to numerous large manufacturing companies – Procter & Gamble, Marathon Petroleum, Sherwin-William, AK Steel, Goodyear Tire & Rubber, and Crown Equipment are just a few that have headquarters in the state.
All together, including us here at Universal Polymer, there were 13,045 manufacturing firms in Ohio as of 2012.
Ohio's top manufacturing industries are transportation equipment, fabricated metal products, machinery, food and manufacturing, and plastics and rubber products, in that order.
From 2009 through 2013, Ohio ranked either first or second every year in regards to manufacturing growth of sites that created 50 jobs, had 20,000 square feet or more of manufacturing space, or had over $1 million in investments.
As you can see, Ohio is an extremely successful and important state when it comes to manufacturing, and at Universal Polymer and Rubber, we are extremely proud to be part of it. We look forward to Ohio continuing to be a national powerhouse in the manufacturing sector. If you want to know more about Ohio manufacturing or you are interested in being part of it through a career in manufacturing, get in touch with us or The Ohio Manufacturers' Association at www.ohiomfg.com.

Q: How to Merge two pages from a pdf file as one page I have a pdf in which there are total 6 pages of images.I want to merge page 1 and 2 as a single pdf and so on for 3 to 6 pages.
I splitted all 6 pages of pdf as individual pdf.
import os
from PyPDF2 import PdfFileReader, PdfFileWriter
def pdf_splitter(path):
    fname = os.path.splitext(os.path.basename(path))[0]
pdf = PdfFileReader(path)
for page in range(pdf.getNumPages()):
    pdf_writer = PdfFileWriter()
    pdf_writer.addPage(pdf.getPage(page))

    output_filename = '{}_page_{}.pdf'.format(
        fname, page+1)

    with open(output_filename, 'wb') as out:
        pdf_writer.write(out)

    print('Created: {}'.format(output_filename))

if name == 'main':
    path = 'D:\Tasks\Samples\fw9.pdf'
    pdf_splitter(path)
I want to know how to merge page 1 and 2 of fw9 as single pdf file which contains only 1 page which have half page as page 1 of fw9 pdf file and another half as page 2 of fw9 pdf.I have to do this for all 6 pages as 1-2 as 1 pdf with 1 page ,3-4 page as another pdf which has only 1 page with both on the same page and so on.Kindly help if any one have any idea on how to do so.

A: The library pyPDF2 has also a PdfFileMerger object, that should do exactly what you want.
As from the example here you can just create a PdfFileMerger, read two pages and put them into one single file.
I changed your script slightly to create also files with pages 0-1, 2-3, 4-5 ecc.. (of course page 0 is the first page but python numbering starts from 0)
import os
from PyPDF2 import PdfFileReader, PdfFileWriter, PdfFileMerger

def pdf_splitter(path):

    fname = os.path.splitext(os.path.basename(path))[0]

    pdf = PdfFileReader(path)
    input_paths = []
    for page in range(pdf.getNumPages()):
        pdf_writer = PdfFileWriter()
        pdf_writer.addPage(pdf.getPage(page))
        output_filename = '{}_page_{}.pdf'.format(fname, page+1)
        input_paths.append(output_filename)
        with open(output_filename, 'wb') as out:
            pdf_writer.write(out)

        print('Created: {}'.format(output_filename))

        # every 2 pages!
        # Change the two if you need every other number of pages!
        if page % 2 == 1:
            pdf_merger = PdfFileMerger() #create pdfilemerger
            for path in input_paths:
                pdf_merger.append(path) #read the single pages

            # we call it pages_N-1_N, so first would be pages_0_1!
            output_path = '{}_pages_{}_{}.pdf'.format(fname, page-1, page)
            with open(output_path, 'wb') as fileobj:
                pdf_merger.write(fileobj) # write the two pages pdf!

            input_paths = []

if __name__ == '__main__':

    path = 'D:\Tasks\Samples\fw9.pdf'
    pdf_splitter(path)

Is this what you wanted?
This will first create single pdf for each page and then combine them 2 to 2. Creating the single pdf could also be skipped, but I was not sure whether you want it or not.

A: from PyPDF2 import PdfFileReader, PdfFileWriter
from PyPDF2 import PageObject

#Open the files that have to be merged
pdf1File = open('document.pdf', 'rb')

#Read the files that you have opened
pdf1Reader = PdfFileReader(pdf1File)

#Make a list of all pages
pages = []
for pageNum in range(pdf1Reader.numPages):
    pageObj = pdf1Reader.getPage(pageNum)
    pages.append(pageObj)

#Calculate width and height for final output page
width = pages[0].mediaBox.getWidth() * 6
height = pages[0].mediaBox.getHeight() + 100

#Create blank page to merge all pages in one page
merged_page = PageObject.createBlankPage(None, width, height)

#Loop through all pages and merge / add them to blank page
x = 0
for page in pages:
    merged_page.mergeScaledTranslatedPage(page, 1, x, 10)
    x = float(x) + float(page.mediaBox.getWidth())

#Create final file with one page
writer = PdfFileWriter()
writer.addPage(merged_page)

with open('out.pdf', 'wb') as f:
    writer.write(f)

I wanted to merge 6 files / page so I have used 6 as a multiplier for page width.

A: this is the answer of how to merge two pages to one page in vertical way

from PyPDF2 import PdfFileReader, PdfFileWriter
from PyPDF2 import PageObject

    pageObj = pdf1Reader.getPage(pageNum)
    pages.append(pageObj)

#Calculate width and height for final output page
width = pages[1].mediaBox.getWidth() * 2
height = pages[1].mediaBox.getHeight()

#Create blank page to merge all pages in one page
merged_page = PageObject.createBlankPage(None, width, height)
writer = PdfFileWriter()
#Loop through all pages and merge / add them to blank page
y =0
merged_page = PageObject.createBlankPage(None, width, height)

In this investigation, automatic face recognition algorithms are discussed. For this purpose, a combination of learning algorithms with supervision are realized; in this way, the classification is first designed by the fuzzy-based support vector machine and then the AdaBoost meta-algorithm is applied to the designed classification to reach more accuracy and overfitting control. In the research proposed here, in order to address the effects of asymmetric classes, the adaptive coefficients are employed. In addition, to reduce the data size, the principal components analysis is also applied to the raw data. It is to note that the proposed approach is carried out in a set of images extracted from Yale University data set and its accuracy of the proposed one is verified.

Florida First DCA affirms trial court's order granting plaintiff new trial on damages where jury award was substantially below defense's own acknowledgement of damages
On July 24, 2017, in Phillip Morris USA v. Danielson, No. 1D16-234 (Fla. 1st DCA 2017), the Florida First DCA affirmed a trial Court's order granting the plaintiff a new trial on damages in an Engle progeny tobacco case. The surviving spouse of the decedent was awarded only $25,000 in economic damages, nothing for pain and suffering and $325,000 in punitive damages, notwithstanding the fact that the parties had stipulated to $2.3 million in economic damages and the defense had conceded in closing argument that it would be reasonable to award $250,000-$300,000 in non-economic damages to the surviving spouse and each of the decedent's children. The trial court granted the plaintiff's unopposed motion to confirm the jury's verdict to the stipulation, and ordered a new trial on non-economic damages and punitive damages over the defendant's objection.
On review, the First DCA noted that a trial court may grant a new trial if the verdict is excessive or inadequate or against the manifest weight of the evidence, or both. Citing Taylor v. Ganas, 443 So. 2d 251, 253 (Fla. 1st DCA 1983), the Court stated that an excessive or inadequate verdict is one that shocks the judicial conscience, or that has been unduly influenced by the jury's passion or prejudice. The trial court had concluded that the jury was unduly influenced by arguments from defense counsel which allegedly implied that the surviving spouse, who had a medical background, should be faulted for her husband's smoking, that she did not care enough about him to explain the danger and that she sought to cash in on his death.
While the First DCA affirmed the trial court regarding the new trial on non-economic damages, the Court reversed the trial court's order granting a new trial on punitive damages. The trial court had granted the new trial on the assumption that the punitive damages award had to be reassessed in light of the potential change in the compensatory damages award. The First DCA disagreed, noting that the Florida Supreme Court has long "disavowed" a strict rule "that punitive damages must bear some reasonable relation to compensatory damages, because the amount of compensation for loss is an entirely separate matter from the amount of punitive damages."

One more game tonight in the NFL.
Betting is 53% on Arizona with the line moving from -5.5-109 to -9.5-104. This move is not related to Brady being out but a key injury that puts Gronkowski on the bench.
Saying that however the 4 point move to me seems a bit overdone and i was going to bet NE but the betting numbers have changed dramatically from 40% on NE to know 47%. That is going to prevent me from wagering on the game. However, If you not already down on Arizona its a bit late to be thinking about betting them. I am passing on the game.
Good Luck which ever side you choose!
Betting is 74% on Green bay but the line has moved from -4-110 to -3.5 +104 and is +3 in some spots. Coming off the 3.5 in some books is a pretty big move. This is the game everyone is betting on. Green Bay I am sure is the lock of the day around the vegas poker tables!
Saturday turned out to be a very busy day for me getting the rust off my mind to handicap a full slate of College football games. And I was rewarded with a 4-1 day.
Winners in College football were Cinci -3, Unlv +25.5, Tenn -11.5, and Troy +34.5. Our loser was Old Dominion +21 and they had it covered until they gave up a TD with 1 min left in the game!
Troy was also an interesting game as if things tilted a bit at the end of the game they had a chance at winning the game as a 34.5 Dog. It's obsessive handicapping that leads you to games like Troy +34.5.
In MLB we had a 1 unit play on Tampa Bay +134 and they lost.
So 3 our way and 1 against. There were 2 big moves and we split on predicting those.
Now on to the NFL!!!
The first 4 were easy picks for me. Pick 5, however, was not as clear. I could have picked New England or Washington but finally settled on Jacksonville. That's a game where if you told someone it was one of your top 5 picks they would either get mad or laugh about it!
Jacksonville is a pick that 5 years ago you could sit back, relax, and count the money after they won by two touchdowns. Not as easy anymore with these types of picks. They are still good but the "sharps" have made it much more difficult finding EV on these types of plays. 5 years ago the line might have been +7.5 or higher.
Fading the top 5 historically has been an excellent strategy. However last year you would have hit a brick wall and had a sizable loss. However, I still think there is value in at least giving some weight that these teams are in the top 5. By weight, I mean to the opposite side.
This is typically where you want to be. And as it turns out I am on 2 of the games with Denver already in as a winner.
Remember sports bettors tend to bet way more than they should the first few weeks of the season. Do not fall into that trap. Use the bet sizing methods I discuss in the must read portion of this site. If you follow this you have the best probability of beating the books while reducing variance substantially.


We love to make GREAT fudge.

We've seen good times and bad and know that each and every step we make in our journey is a blessing and joy from God. Thanks to Him, the journey continues.

The pilot of an advertising blimp that crashed near the US Open in Erin Hills on Thursday morning is expected to be OK, a company spokesperson told WISN 12 NEWS.
The pilot was was transported to a hospital via Flight for Life after going down in a field near highways 83 and 167 in Hartford.
The blimp is owned and operated by the aerial advertising firm AirSign, which earlier in the morning shared a photo on social media of the aircraft advertising PedFed Credit Union.
Witnesses reported seeing the blimp catch on fire as it neared its landing area one mile from the golf course. The pilot may have bailed out of the gondola of the blimp as it approached the ground.
No one else was on board the blimp.

The average pay for an Automotive Technician is $47,401 per year.
Firestone Complete Auto Care, Toyota Dealership, Ford Motor Company, The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co, and Honda Dealership are top-notch employers for Automotive Technicians in this area. Although Chrysler Group LLC. leads the field in pay with a median salary of $46K, employees there receive a wide spread of salaries, from $24K on the low end all the way up to $84K at the top. Soaring salaries can also be found at Automotive, U.S. Postal Service (USPS), and CarMax, Inc., where earnings of $45K, $44K, or $44K are standard for Automotive Technicians.
Wal-Mart Stores, Inc lags the field greatly in terms of pay, offering a median salary less than half of the top paying employer's rate ($22K). Other low-paying employers include Midas Auto Services at $27K and Firestone Complete Auto Care at $31K, though some Automotive Technicians there earn up to $45K.
Many Automotive Technicians move into an Automotive Service Manager role, and folks who currently hold that position report a much higher median income of $53K per year. Automotive Technicians typically move into roles as Diesel Technicians or Automobile Service Advisors, and those positions pay $4K more and $1K more, respectively.
Survey takers working as Automotive Technicians report using a large range of professional skills. Most notably, facility with diagnostics, Systems Troubleshooting, and Welding are correlated to pay that is significantly above average, leading to increases of 38 percent, 12 percent, and 9 percent, respectively. Those listing Problem Solving as a skill should be prepared for drastically lower pay. Alignment and BRAKES also typically command lower compensation. Those proficient in Electronic Troubleshooting are, more often than not, also skilled in System Repair.
Pay by Experience for an Automotive Technician has a positive trend. An entry-level Automotive Technician with less than 5 years of experience can expect to earn an average total compensation of $31,000 based on 1,959 salaries provided by anonymous users. Average total compensation includes tips, bonus, and overtime pay. An Automotive Technician with mid-career experience which includes employees with 5 to 10 years of experience can expect to earn an average total compensation of $39,000 based on 1,355 salaries. An experienced Automotive Technician which includes employees with 10 to 20 years of experience can expect to earn an average total compensation of $46,000 based on 1,328 salaries. An Automotive Technician with late-career experience which includes employees with greater than 20 years of experience can expect to earn an average total compensation of $51,000 based on 799 salaries.
Home to some of the best pay for Automotive Technicians, Seattle offers exceptional salaries, 36 percent above the national average. Automotive Technicians will also find cushy salaries in Dallas (+24 percent), San Diego (+19 percent), Portland (+17 percent), and Charlotte (+13 percent). The smallest paychecks in the market, 9 percent south of the national average, can be found in Denver. Not at the bottom but still paying below the median are employers in Orlando and Philadelphia (7 percent lower and 2 percent lower, respectively).


The Economics of Peace: Can We Be Fair (without Love)?
In July 2011, a lone-wolf terrorist murdered 93 people in Norway, in the interest of driving home an anti-immigration message. The killer, Norwegian native Anders Behring Breivik, was identified as a right-wing extremist with Narcissistic Personality Disorder. While Breivik's action was severe and driven in part by mental illness, his feelings about immigration were in alignment with those of many Norwegians.
Given its open-door policy, generous welfare system, high standard of living, and progressive values – including equal rights for new immigrants — Norway is an immigration magnet. The number of immigrants soared from 1992-2012, increasing from 4.3% of the population to 13.1%.
While Norway remains hospitable, going out of its way to ensure the comfort and success of its new immigrants, racism simmers just beneath the surface. In response, Norway's Contact Committee for Immigrants and the Authorities (KIM), a government appointed independent advisory committee, is hosting a conference this May, to discuss the challenges of integrating foreign cultures into Norwegian society. The conference is called "Belonging," with the implication that belonging is a necessity for achieving peace.
The keynote speaker will be Shakti Butler, PhD – filmmaker, educator, and the founder and creative director of World Trust, an organization working to facilitate social equity through film, dialogue and transformative learning. An American woman of African, Arawak Indian, and Russian-Jewish heritage, Butler is a living, breathing example of racial integration and is a sound choice as a mentor on topic.
The once-homogenous country of Norway is struggling with its attempt to integrate diverse new members into its socialized system, as are other Scandinavian countries in their parallel attempts. Unlike the United States, which has been multicultural since its genesis, northern European nations are accustomed to a long-standing, singular culture.
In this context, economic divide is not the only fuel for feelings of inequality.
As countries such as Norway, Denmark, and Sweden open their arms and coffers to immigrants, Scandinavian retirees watch their fixed incomes decline with higher taxes, after a lifetime laboring to lift their country out of post WW2 depression and into prosperity. Numerous Scandinavian citizens question the fairness, or are downright resentful, of their countries' policies towards immigrants. And so the rage of Breivik exploded, targeting his own nationals — particularly the government leaders and student activists in support of the immigration policy. By giving immigrants equal access to the privileges of nationals, what seemed fair to policy makers seemed unfair to citizens such as Breivik. So fairness, being subjective, is not the glue that binds us.
Love, in the form of genuine respect, is that glue. We often believe that giving aid fulfills all needs, demonstrating our loving compassion. In doing so, we make the mistake of thinking that love is only the one side of giving and forget that the other half of love is receiving. While we give assistance to those in need, we typically do not get their input on what they need, like teaching without allowing the student to ask questions. Problems are not solved without the connection between the supporter and the supported.
I applaud the Norwegian government for creating and supporting the Committee for Immigrants and Authorities. The design reminds me of the non-profit organizations in the United States that connects the input from individuals and minority groups with policy makers. Yet, the success of the system depends on the ability "to expand our ability to hold onto paradoxes," Butler says. In other words, we need to see the many human versions of "the right way" as being equally legitimate. The dualistic attitude that a specific norm is "good" and all else is "bad" limits peaceful growth in society.

There are some people who enter a room, and you know you are in the presence of greatness. Lea Anne Creswell is one of those people. Her statuesque figure, flawless face, and confidence is enough to blow anyone away, but when she sings, your heart will melt. With a voice like Patsy, a sense of humor like Lucy, and a heart of gold like Betty (White, that is), Creswell is truly a legend in her own right.
A hometown girl, Pensacola born and bred, Lea Anne Creswell, became fascinated with music after learning to play a guitar she received for Christmas at the tender age of 9. She spent the next 9 years honing her craft with an urge to hit the road. "I left for Memphis the day I graduated and started playing music at the Bombay Bicycle Club where I met a fellow musician and formed a duo," Creswell recalled. That duo made the move back to Pensacola, where she became a staple at Seville Quarter.
Creswell made the move back to Pensacola in the 80's after he father fell ill to help her mother in their time of need. "I was lucky enough to come back to my gig at Seville Quarter where I ran into an old friend who said, "You should be playing at the Flora-Bama.", said Creswell. Having no idea what or where the Flora-Bama Lounge was, Creswell and her friend jumped in the car and headed for the remote (at the time) little barrier island known as Perdido Key to check out the roadhouse that was making a name for itself in the music community.
As she recalled her beginnings at the Flora-Bama, Creswell's eyes lit up. Her nearly 50 year friendship with former Flora-Bama owner, Joe Gilchrist, visibly brings her fond memories. So much so that, she broke into a verse of 'Crazy Arms', Gilchrist's favorite song during his days as a manager at the Townhouse Lounge in downtown Pensacola. "I was hanging out in there at the age of 14, and begged Joe to let me play a little. He let me one Sunday, and I sang this song," Creswell said.
As she sang a verse of 'Crazy Arms' impromptu, the haunting similarities of Creswell and Patsy Cline were clear, but it's also evident that she is very much her own artist. With a sultry voice that oozes the depth of pain a song can make you feel, Creswell can completely mesmerize an entire room with just a few notes.
Her stories and life experiences are as complex and enthralling as her music. "People would hear my voice and request Patsy Cline's 'Crazy' nearly every night. This one regular would come in all the time, and request it, then put a $100 bill in my tip jar. Needless to say, I sang 'Crazy' for him any time he wanted," Creswell laughed.
She's hung with some of the best in the industry. Guy Clark, Billy Dean, Hank Cochran, and Red Lane, just to name a few. "Hank Cochran came to me at my house one night after songwriter's festival and said, "Leanne, I just love the way you sing, and I'm getting ready to open up my recording studio in Nashville, and I want you to be the first person to sing there." I was absolutely honored," Creswell said.
Cochran, having written such legendary hits as 'I Fall To Pieces', 'She's Got You', 'The Chair', and 'Make The World Go Away', took Creswell into the studio where she spent two weeks picking out 11 songs from Cochran's library. At the request of Cochran's wife, Creswell added just one more song, 'Diamonds and Rust' by Joan Baez.
In addition to the magic Creswell makes in the studio, she's also a talented artist, taking musical instruments and making them into one of a kind hand painted pieces that grace the walls of people from all walks of life all over the Gulf Coast. Her attention to detail, eye for beauty, and relentless pursuit of creativity has made her a unique and legendary artist both on and off the stage.
She's a lady with many facets. Known as "the Queen" around the Flora-Bama, she graces the stage regularly with various friends, and never disappoints. She has even found time to MC the bar's annual Mullet Toss event that has catered to thousands of locals and visitors alike for years, bringing her special mix of moxie, humor, and sass to adoring crowds.

It is possible for a person to worship Allah through the whole day and night. This does not mean that we spend 24 hours of the day in prayer, rather that we follow the Islamic etiquette for different tasks in whatever we do and this is our worship of Allah. Sleeping is no different, and given the amount of time we spend sleeping, a person should be keen to follow the etiquette of sleeping so as to spend these many hours worshipping their Lord.
Extinguish any lamps so that the Shaytaan (Satan) will not cause mischief whilst people sleep.
"A mouse (or rat) came and started dragging the wick (of the lamp). It threw it in front of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), onto the mat on which he was sitting, and it burnt a hole the size of a dirham (a coin). He said, "When you go to sleep, extinguish your lamps, for the Shaytaan will tell creatures like this to do something like this so that you will be burned."
Say "Subhaan-Allah" (Glory be to Allah) 33 times, "Alhamdulillah" (Praise be to Allah) 33 times, and "Allahu Akbar" (Allah is the greatest) 34 times.
Lie on his/her right side and place the right hand under the cheek so that s/he is facing the Qiblah (direction of the Kaba in Makkah (Mecca)). Note: In practice, Muslims will often try (where possible) to position their beds in such a way that when they lie on their right side they will face the Qiblah.
Read the verse of the Qur'an known as Ayat al-Kursi (Al-Baqarah 2:255). Whoever reads this when lying down to sleep will be protected from Satan until s/he rises in the morning.
Finally, the person should recite the shahada (declaration of faith) lest they should die in their sleep and then these would be their last words.
It is not permissible for a male child who has reached the age of puberty or ten years of age to sleep in the same bed as his sisters, mother or any other female. The same applies to female children who have reached puberty or ten years of age regarding sleeping with males. This is to avoid any kind of temptation or evil and to safeguard honour.
If a child is approaching the age of puberty then they must seek to enter permission their parents' room at three times of the day: before morning prayer, when adults have their rest after noon prayer, and after night prayer. This is because it is at these times that the parents are more likely to be removing their clothes and are entitled to their privacy at these times and the child has begun to become aware of private parts and son. Once the child reaches the age of ten, or puberty, they must seek permission at all times of the day to enter the bedroom.
It is not permissible for a person to sleep on their stomach (unless they must due to illness) since this is hated by Allah and it is how the people of Hell lie.
It is better to avoid sleeping after Asr (afternoon prayer), since after Asr prayer there is great reward in making dua'a (supplications) and prayers are more likely to be answered at this time. For this reason, it is better if a person is awake rather than sleeping so that they might get the benefit of this.

How Dr. King Lived is Why He Died
by Jesse Jackson
As the nation prepares to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., we should dwell not merely on how Dr. King died but also on how he lived.
He mobilized mass action to win a public accommodations bill and the right to vote. He led the Montgomery bus boycott and navigated police terror in Birmingham. He got us over the bloodstained bridge in Selma and survived the rocks and bottles and hatred in Chicago. He globalized our struggle to end the war in Vietnam.
How he lived is why he died.
As he sought to move beyond desegregation and the right to vote, to focus his work on economic justice, antimilitarism and human rights, the system pushed back hard. In the last months of his life, he was attacked by the government, the press, former allies and the military industrial complex. Even black Democrats turned their backs on him when he challenged the party's support for the war in Vietnam.
A growing number of Americans had a negative view of Dr. King in the final years of his life, according to public opinion polls. A man of peace, he died violently. A man of love, he died hated by many.
America loathes marchers but loves martyrs. The bullet in Memphis made Dr. King a martyr for the ages.
We owe it to Dr. King — and to our children and grandchildren — to commemorate the man in full: a radical, ecumenical, antiwar, pro-immigrant and scholarly champion of the poor who spent much more time marching and going to jail for liberation and justice than he ever spent dreaming about it.
This is a painful time of the year for me because it is when I am asked to remember the most traumatic night in my life.
We had come to Memphis in 1968 to support striking sanitation workers in their fight for better wages and safer working conditions. On the evening of April 4, Dr. King was going to take a group of us, including the Rev. Ralph Abernathy, Andy Young, Hosea Williams and Bernard Lee, to dinner at the home of the Rev. Samuel Billy Kyles, not far from where we were staying, the Lorraine Motel.
As we prepared to go, Dr. King cheerfully admonished me, the youngest of the group, for not being suitably dressed for the evening. I wasn't wearing a tie. "Doc, the only prerequisite for dinner," I joked back, "is an appetite, not a tie."
We laughed. Dr. King loved to laugh.
After dinner we were going to attend a rally for the sanitation workers. I had brought the Operation Breadbasket Orchestra from Chicago to play at the rally. Dr. King, always the hottest ticket in any town, was scheduled to speak. He'd be hard pressed, though, to top the speech he gave the night before at the Mason Temple in Memphis, where he pledged that "we, as a people, will get to the promised land."
It was raining cats and dogs, but the Mason Temple, part of the Church of God in Christ, was nearly full. I was sitting behind Dr. King as he preached from the pulpit. He spoke with such pathos and passion that I saw grown men wiping away tears in the sanctuary. "I'm not worried about anything," Dr. King told the crowd of about 3,000."I'm not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord."
None of us took those words as a premonition. We had heard similar sentiments from him before. Maybe we were in denial. While danger was all around, we never thought the Martin Luther King we knew and loved, admitted to Morehouse College at 15, graduated and ordained at 19, earning a Ph.D. at 26, awarded the Nobel Peace Prize at 35, would be dead at 39.
On April 4, the fatal shot rang out just after 6 p.m. as we were about to get into the cars to go to dinner. Dr. King was on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel. I was in the parking lot below.
A couple of hours later, the Rev. Ralph Abernathy, Dr. King's successor, gathered us at the Lorraine. By then much of urban America had already moved from shock and sorrow to rage and flames. We had a choice: Surrender to our own anguish and anger, or honor the slain prince of peace by picking up the baton of nonviolent direct action.
With deep breaths, the baton firmly in our hands, we went to Resurrection City, the tent city erected by Dr. King's Poor People's Campaign in Washington, and continued the work of ending poverty and the war. As the Rev. Joseph Lowery said, we would not let one bullet kill the movement.
Dr. King's spirit has been our moral guidepost for 50 years. That spirit is alive today with the high school students of Parkland, Fla., as they push the country toward sensible gun control. It is alive with the teachers of West Virginia, who have blazed a trail for other workers. It is alive with Black Lives Matter, the Dreamers, Colin Kaepernick and thousands of African-American voters who defied the pundits and sent an Alabama Democrat to the Senate for the first time in a generation. It is alive with the Rev. William Barber as he resurrects Dr. King's last crusade, the Poor People's Campaign.
Dr. King bequeathed African-Americans the will to resist and the right to vote. Yet while we were marching and winning, the powers of reaction were regrouping, preparing a counterrevolution. Five decades ago, a segregationist governor, George Wallace, peddled hate and division in reaction to the civil rights movement. Today, it is the president himself who is inciting anguish, bigotry and fear.
We are in a battle for the soul of America, and it's not enough to admire Dr. King. To admire him is to reduce him to a mere celebrity. It requires no commitment, no action. Those who value justice and equality must have the will and courage to follow him. They must be ready to sacrifice.
The struggle continues.

Résurrection est un vitrail dont le carton fut dessiné par Paolo Uccello et qui fut réalisé par Bernardo di Francesco en 1443-1445. Il est situé sur une des ouvertures circulaires du tambour du dôme de la cathédrale Santa Maria del Fiore de Florence.

Histoire
Ce vitrail fait partie d'une commande globale passée par le chantier de l'Œuvre du Duomo de trois vitraux comprenant également une Annonciation et une Nativité.

Description
Le thème de l'iconographie chrétienne invoqué est celui de la Résurrection du Christ, le moment même où il émerge de son tombeau (ici représenté en sarcophage) entouré de part et d'autre de soldats encore endormis. Le Christ victorieux (car triomphant de la Mort), enveloppé de son linceul, porte sa bannière blanche à croix rouge, il est nimbé de rayons dorés et porte auréole.

Analyse
On remarquera le très connu , coiffure portée part les Florentins, que Paolo Uccello invoque dans plusieurs de ses tableaux et dont il fit des études perspectives savantes. Ici c'est un des soldats (à droite) qui le porte.

La maîtrise perspective est également visible dans le dessin du couvercle et du sarcophage ouvert d'où émerge le Christ et c'est une innovation dans le dessin d'un vitrail.
