Brief Fact Summary. On ruling regarding a suppression hearing, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals (Seventh Circuit) held that the findings of a trial judge regarding probable cause and reasonable suspicion were to be given great deference, and reversed only for clear error.
Synopsis of Rule of Law. Probable cause and reasonable suspicion determinations are subject to de novo review by appellate courts.
Where, for example, as with proof of actual malice in First Amendment libel cases, the relevant legal principle can be given meaning only through its application to the particular circumstances of a case, the Court has been reluctant to give the trier of fact's conclusions presumptive force and, in so doing, strip a federal appellate court of its primary function as an expositor of law.
Facts. The Petitioners, Ornelas and Ornelas (Petitioners), were stopped by the police and questioned as to whether the police could look in their car. The Petitioners consented to a search of their car. The police found narcotics and subsequently arrested the Petitioners. At an evidentiary hearing, the trial court found the police did not have probable cause to search the panels of Petitioner's car. On appeal, the Seventh Circuit held that it would not disturb the trial court's finding as to probable cause, unless there was clear error.
Issue. Are a trial court's determinations of reasonable suspicion and probable cause subject to de novo review?
Held. Yes. The Appellate Court should have reviewed the Trial court's reasonable suspicion and probable cause determinations de novo.
Discussion. Whether probable cause and reasonable suspicion exist are questions of law, subject to de novo review. The underlying facts regarding these determinations are only to be reversed on clear error.

The fire of the mind
In Umberto Eco's masterful medieval murder mystery The Name of the Rose, we meet a villain who is willing to kill, over and over, to stop his fellow monks...
... from reading a book.
The following is a spoiler, so you can skip the next few paragraphs (scroll down to where it says [end spoiler alert]) if you haven't read Eco's novel. Which I hope you all will, because it's brilliant. But the punchline makes a point that needs to be made now, seven centuries after the time in which the novel is set, as strongly as it did then.
Europe of the early 14th century was a grim place, and life was, in Thomas Hobbes's words, "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short." Religion had an iron grip over people's lives, and the learned men of the time taught that the fear of god was paramount. This fear was translated downwards into fear of the "hierarchy of heaven," as represented here on Earth by the Pope, Cardinals, Bishops, and the monastic system. And within that system, questioning and freedom of thought was considered heresy, punishable by death.
In this system we find two opposing characters: the brilliant and curious scholar Brother William of Baskerville, and the stern and unyielding Brother Jorge of Burgos. William is called in to solve a series of murders that have occurred in an unnamed abbey in the mountains of Italy. The murders revolve around the abbey's magnificent library, the secrets of which are only accessible to the librarian and his assistants. And one by one, the monks connected with the library are being picked off by someone who is bound and determined to keep some of its knowledge out of the hands of the monks (or anyone else).
The knowledge in question turns out to be a book by Aristotle that was thought lost; the second volume of his Poetics, in which he describes the proper use of comedy, and argues that laughter is freeing, proper, and purifying for the soul. When Brother William solves the mystery, and discovers that Brother Jorge is behind the murders and has hidden the book, he confronts the old man, and asks him why it was so important to keep such a seemingly innocent volume out of people's hands. Brother Jorge responds:
(L)aughter is weakness, corruption, the foolishness of our flesh... (H)ere, the function of laughter is reversed, it is elevated to art, the doors of the world of the learned are opened to it, it becomes the object of philosophy, and of perfidious theology... You saw yesterday how the simple can conceive and carry out the most lurid heresies, disavowing the laws of God and the laws of nature. But the church can deal with the heresy of the simple, who condemn themselves on their own, destroyed by their own ignorance... Laughter frees the villein from fear of the Devil, because in the feast of fools the Devil also appears poor and foolish, and therefore controllable. But this book could teach that freeing oneself from the fear of the Devil is wisdom. When he laughs, as the wine gurgles in his throat, the villein feels he is master, because he had overturned his position with respect to his lord; but this book could teach learned men the clever, and from that moment, illustrious artifices that could legitimize the reversal.
To Brother Jorge, it is worth killing, and dying, for his desperate necessity to keep others from knowing the justification of laughter, mirth, and irreverence. And in the end, he destroys the book and burns down the library to keep that knowledge from the world.
[end spoiler alert]
Which brings us to what has happened in the Middle East in the last few days.
The depredations of ISIS have been all over the news lately, but none have seemed more bizarre and pointless to the western world as two that have occurred recently. The Islamic State's arm in Libya four days ago burned a pile of musical instruments, saying that such things are "un-Islamic." Then, just two days ago, ISIS members in Iraq burned the hundred-year-old library in the city of Mosul, destroying 8,000 rare books that were a treasure-trove of cultural information and history. "900 years ago, the books of the Arab philosopher Averroes were collected before his eyes...and burned," wrote activist and blogger Rayan al-Hadidi. "One of his students started crying while witnessing the burning. Averroes told him... the ideas have wings...but I cry today over our situation."

Why, in a situation where ISIS members are fighting daily to maintain ground and to keep control of the people they've conquered, would they stop what they're doing to burn musical instruments and ancient manuscripts? It seems pointless. Wouldn't they have better things to do with their time and energy?
No. What ISIS is doing has its own pervasive, evil logic.
It has to do with exactly the same thing that Venerable Jorge hated the idea of: reading, laughter, and music free people from fear. If you are going to control people, you must control their thoughts. The first thing you do, therefore, is to destroy any opportunity for them to experience something outside of that control.
Music lifts our emotions into heights that cannot be measured. When we read, our spirits are free to think any thought, put ourselves in other people's minds, other places, other times. Dancing does the same thing, which probably explains why Saudi Arabia's "morality police" arrested some young men four days ago for dancing at a birthday party.
Can't have people experiencing anything outside of the narrowly prescribed range of thoughts, feelings, and actions. If people go outside that range, anything could happen. And would.
And then, the sword-bearing horrors who are now running much of the Middle East would not be in control any more. People would learn that there's more to life than fear and obedience, more than living in terror of a grim, humorless cadre of thugs who are so afraid themselves of intellectual and emotional freedom that they will stop at nothing to prevent it from spreading to others.
I live in hope that in our world of interconnectedness and free flow of information via the internet, such control cannot be maintained for long. We have seen the difficulty the Saudis are having in keeping the holes in the dam from leaking; bloggers and activists who openly criticize the regime are growing in numbers. Some, such as Raif Badawi, have paid a horrible price for exercising that freedom.
But the truth that ISIS doesn't want their victims to realize is that the spirit of free thought burns hotter than the flames of destruction. Even if you set fire to books and musical instruments, you can't really control thoughts, even through threats and terror. The human mind is stronger and more resilient than that. So even though I weep for the treasures that were lost in the burning of the Mosul Library, I remain optimistic that the desperate and amoral men of ISIS will one day be trod underfoot and forgotten to all but historians, just as their brothers-in-spirit -- the Inquisition of the 14th century -- have been.

Before we can go ahead and reveal the features that you have been trying to figure out since a while, we shall first discuss about the need of having a smart phone in today's world.
A smart phone is something that brings together the various features of a normal mobile phone along with some high end features that is available only in the computer. Smart phones have created a revolution today because it is such a powerful device that does multiple things for you. You can make and receive calls, send messages, surf the internet, video conference and even play games. It is the complete combination of a phone, computer, personal assistant, calendar, clock and many other devices all bundled together into one. This is what has created such a widespread rage in the technology world today. There are many smart phones today that are manufactured by many companies in the world. But, here is one smart phone that is above all other smart phones. Yes, we are talking about the Samsung Galaxy Note 4.

After booking the flights to Riga, I searched for accommodation and to my surprise this was also very cheap. I managed to find a four star hotel right in the centre called Wellton Centrum Hotel & SPA for £45 a night, too good to be true right? I can confirm it was lovely large room and amazing spa facilities. I have also discovered the same prices when I've looked for hotels in Budapest and Prague too.
Another surprising factor of Riga is their public transport from the airport you can get a bus right into the centre for 1 euro 15 one way. They also have trams and their version of uber called cabify if you need to get somewhere quickly.
One of the tallest churches in Riga and a prime example of the 13th century Gothic style. To access the viewing platform at the top you have to pay 9 euros each to get a fantastic panorama view of the rooftops of the Old Town and the rest of Riga. We didn't do this as we thought it was a little pricey considering we could go to the skyline bar and get a drink for that price.
This magnificent piece of colourful architecture was built in 1344 and was once inhabited by the enterprising brotherhood of foreign merchants called the Brotherhood of the Blackheads. The original house was decimated in 1941 and flattened by the Soviets seven years later. But an exact replica was completed in 2001 for Rīga's 800th birthday.
A central landmark in Riga, the Freedom Monument dates back to 1935 and is a symbol of the Latvian nation's striving for freedom and independence. Nearby you will find beautiful parks and the main square separating old town and new.
Also known as Bastion Hill this quiet park in the centre of Riga is right next to the Freedom Monument and divides the Old Town from the Central District. I would say it's one of the most romantic places in Riga, as it features narrow paths, wispy trees, cute ducks, a canal and a love lock bridge similar to Paris.
If there is one thing Riga is famous for it's the Art Nouveau architecture dating back to 20th century and awarding it the status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. All around Riga you will find over 800 unusual building and houses built in this style and because they are so beautiful it's one of the many reasons why tourists keep coming back to Riga, Latvia. Some of the most famous areas are Alberta, Elisabetes, Vilandes, Strelnieku, Brivibas and Terbatas.
I didn't know this before I visited but historically Riga was the birthplace of the first Christmas tree in 1510. According to records, the guilds men placed a decorated tree on the town square on Christmas day and then set it on fire at the end of the holiday season. Today Riga Council have built a faux tree next to the House of Blackheads on former Market Square to memorialise it.
The Three Brothers are three of the oldest complex of dwelling houses in Riga, Latvia. The houses together are an excellent example of medieval architecture and No 17 is over 600 years old, making it the oldest dwelling in town. As you can see it's quite difficult to get a picture of all three as they are fairly wide!
Situated just opposite the Swedish Gate and by the largest fragment of the old city walls, you can't miss this long row of yellow, red-roofed buildings built in the 18th century. Once serving as barracks for troops they now are occupied by cafes, bars and shops.
The Old Town of Riga used to be surrounded by walls on all sides to keep out invaders, but over the years most of its walls have been torn down. Today, only one section of the original walls remains next to Jacob's Barracks.
The Cat House is named after two black felines that are perched on the top of its towers. The house itself dates back to 1909 and is a mixture of medieval and art nouveau styles. It sits on Livu Square in the centre of Old Riga opposite the Great Guild hall and today the cats have managed to become the unofficial symbols of Riga.
Before we arrived in Riga, I did a little research on the type of food Latvians like to eat this included a lot of meat including pork and meatballs, rye bread and different varieties of soup. I also came across a common vodka liquer called Riga Black Balsam, believe me its not to everyone's taste but warm your insides on a cold winter day.
If you get a really bright, sunny day in Riga this rooftop bar is a must to get the best view of the city from both directions. Located on the 26th floor of Radisson Blu Hotel, the cocktails are fairly pricey but when you get a view like this who cares? We did have to wait a little bit to get a table right by the window but it was definitely worth it!
When I found out about this folk bar and restaurant, I knew we had to book a table. Once through the door you head underground to a few massive rooms serving delicious Latvian cuisine and traditional music playing. We were lucky to get a table right at the front, one of the best nights I have had in a long time and if you visit Riga it should be at the top of your list.
If you want to pour your own beer or wine yourself Riga has two separate places to go - Easy Beer and Easy Wine conveniently next to each other in Old Town. Once inside you are given a card to swipe on the side of the machines and then you choose which drink you would like and place your glass underneath, it's just like wine tasting but much cheaper!
One of the only few places in Riga offering gluten free on the menu, Street Burgers is actually a chain so you will come across a few in Riga, but boy are their burgers and fries good! Plus they serve delicious fruity beer and the portion sizes are huge!
The location of Kolonade is perfect for great views of the Freedom Monument, Latvian National Opera and the Laima Clock, as well as next to a magnificent city park. Inside the interior is magical, and the food is devine, I treated myself to cheese croquettes to start and moose meatball with mash for main.
Known as the most romantic cafe in Riga and conveniently opposite the famous three brothers, Parunasim is through a little archway and into the most beautiful little cafe with homemade cakes and hot chocolate plus upstairs you can find more seating overlooking the little streets.
Right by our hotel this quirky bar in Riga was the perfect place to find great cocktails and also happy hour at certain times making them an affordable 7 euros.
Have you ever visited Riga, Latvia?

Freshman participation affected by the Week of Involvement
KATIE GOODRICH / NEWS CO-EDITOR
Summer storms rained on Block Party. Twice.
Threats of rain and strong winds forced the programs for leadership and service education office to move Block Party from outside on Tues. Aug. 26 to inside on Fri. Aug. 29.
Week of Involvement acted as the solution for Block Party being rescheduled and canceled again, said Genevieve Sullivan, assistant director of the PuLSE office.
"It was something we had been planning on starting," she said. "Because we had some feedback, and I think rightfully so, that Block Party can be a little overwhelming for students."
The week involving tabling outside of Atherton Union was originally scheduled for Sept. 15 – 19 to give students a second, less-intimidating chance to sign up for clubs and organizations, Sullivan said.
The PuLSE Office received feedback saying clubs and organizations already had events planned for before Week of Involvement started.
"There were a couple date changes, but we were hoping to best accommodate as many student groups as possible," she said. "It stinks when you have a call-out meeting scheduled for Sept. 15 and you won't even have a chance to table before then. We tried to move it up as much as we could."
The tabling dates were changed to Sept. 8 through 16.
Block Party is scheduled to hit a "sweet spot" during Welcome Week when students are on campus with little else to do, Sullivan said.
Week of Involvement dates were moved up and scheduled based on several factors.
Sullivan said PuLSE considered scheduling conflicts and commuter students when they chose to do the tabling during peak lunch hours outside a dining hall. The location would attract the most traffic and allow people to visit during their passing period.
Each date hosted organizations in different categories, such as academic clubs, Greek life or club sports.
Every organization has a different timeline of acquiring new students.
For example, Greek life recruitment occurs second semester.
Becky Druetzler, director of Greek life, said Week of Involvement will not drastically change fraternity and sorority recruitment.
"It isn't any worse," she said. "It's just different, and different is not always comfortable. The jury is still out on long-term effects though."
The Panhellenic Association and Interfraternity Council do their own outreach at Block Party, but the organizations have their own avenues to get in touch with people interested in recruitment.
"The downside for the individual organizations is that they didn't have any exposure," Dreutzler said. "But it is not like they're signing people up independently when they're at Block Party."
Clubs and organizations like the International Club and the gospel choir, Voices of Deliverance, take new students throughout the year.
Marcus Harvey is the co-president of the Voices of Deliverance, which is housed in the Diversity Center.
He said he was pleasantly surprised by the turnout at both Week of Involvement and the Diversity Fair, an event hosted by the Diversity Center for their own organizations.
Harvey said Week of Involvement was very different than Block Party.
"It was kind of more jumbled than Block Party," he said. " But I liked the idea of having it separated by interests."
He said he disliked the time constraint created by tabling during the middle of classes.
"It seems like it's a little unfair to people," Harvey said. "If they have class, they might only have ten minutes, but they want to talk to three clubs."
Sullivan said she thinks any other option than the original Block Party time would run into the same dilemma of conflicting schedules, whether it is a rain date or Week of Involvement.
"There is going to be an attendance difference," she said. "There are absolutely going to be less people at Week of Involvement everyday than there are at Block Party at one time, but we'll just have to see how that turns out with the recruitment from the students. We're hoping it's comparable for them."
Harvey said, the results from Week of Involvement are fairly similar to those from Block Party.
Alex Johnson, president of The International Club, said she has full sheets of names from Week of Involvement and Diversity Fair.
"The bigger number I start with means the better chance I have of actually retaining some of the students," she said.
Johnson said she plans on reshaping the focus of the club, so she would like more people involved.
Other organizations, such as the Butler Dance Team, require auditions, so they had a strict timeline.
Taylor Brown, captain of the Dance Team, said the team used on social media to promote their auditions, which took place the day after the second attempt to host Block Party.
"We relied on older members and tweeted at (Butler University President James) Danko and (Vice President for Student Affairs) Levester Johnson to promote it," she said.
Brown said most students who auditioned actively sought out the team.
"We had to cross our fingers and wait," she said. "I felt like I could breathe again when I had a list of 17 girls."
Freshman Rachel Anderle did not know exactly what she wanted to be involved and said she feels like she like a vital opportunity to get involved after Block Party was canceled.
"I barely knew what Week of Involvement was," she said. "And it was being shoved down my throat along with my new classes. I don't know what all is offered here. I was looking forward to seeing everything laid out."
Anderle did not attend Week of Involvement tabling dates.
"I had classes," she said. "I had things that I needed to do. If we had Block Party, I would have gone with that express purpose."
Anderle said she is still looking to get involved on campus.
Druetzler said the event has room for change and growth.
"I think with anything, you learn a lot the first time you do it," she said. "You learn what works well. You learn what if there's any shortcomings and ideas for the next time we do this."
Sullivan said in the future, the PuLSE Office wants to host both Block Party and Week of Involvement to give students a second, less-overwhelming chance to look at club at organizations.

Cockney ist die Bezeichnung für einen englischen Regiolekt in London, der zum Teil mit spezifischen Reimformen arbeitet. Der Begriff ging aus einem Spottnamen für die Bürger von London hervor. Im engeren Sinne bezeichnet man als Cockneys jedoch nur jene Menschen, die in Hörweite der Glocken der Kirche St Mary-le-Bow in der City of London geboren wurden.

Beschreibung
Charakteristisch für diesen Regiolekt sind folgende Ausspracheerscheinungen:
 "h-dropping": Auslassung von /h/: harm klingt wie arm
 "th-fronting": Ersetzung von /θ/ und /ð/ durch /f/ und /v/
 "t-glottalization": Ersetzung von /t/ durch /ʔ/ in manchen Positionen
 Zentralisierung der Vokale der sogenannten englischen "Received Pronunciation".
 l-Vokalisierung: "Millwall" [ˈmɪowɔː]
 Aussprache der Vokale/Diphthonge:
 /iː/ → [əi],  "beet" [bəiʔ]
 /eɪ/ → [æɪ~aɪ], "bait" [bæɪʔ]
 /uː/ → [əʉ] oder [ʉː], "soon" [səʉn]
 /aɪ/ → [ɑɪ] oder [ɒɪ], "bite" [bɑɪʔ]
 /ɔː/ → [oː], "law" [loː]

Ein typisches Wort wäre z. B. guv (so wird man als Mann v. a. von Taxifahrern angesprochen).

Wortherkunft
Das Wort Cockney lässt sich zuerst 1362 nachweisen und kommt vom mittelenglischen cokeney aus cocken + ey (englisch cock + egg), eines Hahnes Ei, also ein Stück Hahnenkot. Geoffrey Chaucer nutzt den Begriff "cokenay" (etwa 1386) in seiner Erzählung The Reeve's Tale und meint damit einen "verweichlichten Jungen". 1521 wird mit dem Begriff abwertend ein verweichlichter Städter bezeichnet. Samuel Rowlands benutzt den Begriff für jemanden, der in Hörweite der Kirche St Mary-le-Bow geboren wurde.  Nach dem Klassischen Wörterbuch der Vulgärsprache (engl. A Classical Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue) des englischen Lexikographen Francis Grose (* 1730/31 in Greenford, Middlesex, † 12. Juni 1791 in Dublin) aus dem Jahre 1785 entstammt der Begriff folgender Geschichte:

 Ein Londoner hörte während eines Landaufenthalts ein Pferd wiehern und rief aus: "Herr! Was das Pferd lacht!" Ein Nebenstehender klärte ihn auf, der Pferdelaut heiße "Wiehern". Als am nächsten Morgen der Hahn krähte, wollte der Londoner zeigen, dass er das Gelernte nicht vergessen hatte, und rief aus: "Hören Sie, wie der Hahn wiehert?" (Do you hear how the Cock neighs)?

Cockney Rhyming Slang
Eine Besonderheit der Cockney-Sprecher ist der Cockney Rhyming Slang: Das Wort, das man ausdrücken will, wird ersetzt durch einen mehrteiligen Ausdruck, der sich auf dieses Wort reimt. In den meisten Fällen (aber nicht immer) wird sogar nur der erste Teil des Reimbegriffs verwendet, wodurch man als Uneingeweihter den Sinn kaum noch erraten kann.

Beispiele:
 statt cancel (absagen) – reimt sich auf Nigel Mansell (britischer Formel-I-Pilot) – sagt man I had to nigel my holidays
 statt head (Kopf) – reimt sich auf loaf of bread (ein Laib Brot) – sagt man loaf, z. B. Use yer loaf!
 statt look (Blick) – reimt sich auf butcher's hook (Fleischerhaken) – sagt man butcher's, z. B. Have a butcher's!
 statt money (Geld) – reimt sich auf bread and honey (Brot und Honig) – sagt man bread
 statt wife (Ehefrau) – reimt sich auf trouble and strife (Kummer und Hader) – sagt man trouble
 statt road (Straße) – reimt sich auf frog and toad (Frosch und Kröte) – sagt man frog
 statt stairs (Treppen) – reimt sich auf apples and pears (Äpfel und Birnen) – sagt man apples
 statt lies (Lügen) – reimt sich auf pork pies (Schweinefleischpastete) – sagt man Don't tell porkies! (gemeint: Spinn nicht rum!)
 statt years (im Sinne von lange, lange Zeit) – reimt sich auf donkey ears (Eselsohren) – sagt man I haven't seen you for donkeys. (gemeint: Ich habe dich eine Ewigkeit nicht mehr gesehen.)
 statt tramp (im Sinne von "Penner") – reimt sich auf paraffin lamp (Petroleumlampe) – sagt man Look at that old paraffin! (gemeint: Schau dir den Penner an!)
 statt hair (im Sinne von Haare) – reimt sich auf Barnet Fair (Jahrmarkt in Barnet) – sagt man Wot a Barnet! (gemeint: Oh, welch schöne Haare!)
 statt feet (Füße) – reimt sich auf plates of meat (Fleischplatten) – sagt man My plates hurt. (gemeint: Meine Füße tun weh.)
 statt pocket (Tasche) – reimt sich auf sky rocket (Himmelsrakete) – sagt man it's in my sky (gemeint: Es ist in meiner Tasche)
 statt go (gehen) – reimt sich auf Scapa Flow (war ein Marinestützpunkt in der gleichnamigen Bucht bei den südlichen Orkneyinseln) – sagt man to scarper (gemeint: abhauen)
 statt telly (Fernseher) – reimt sich auf Liza Minnelli – sagt man I'm watching the lisa (gemeint: ich schaue fern)
 statt phone (Telefon) – reimt sich auf dog and bone – sagt man  I'm on the dog. (gemeint: Ich bin am Telefonieren)
 statt fart (Furz) – reimt sich auf raspberry tart (Himbeerkuchen) – sagt man I blow a raspberry. (gemeint: Ich pupse)

Der Rhyming Slang war früher möglicherweise eine richtige Geheimsprache oder gar eine Gaunersprache, heutzutage ist es eine beliebte Wortspielerei, die sich im ganzen englischen Sprachraum ausgebreitet hat. Im Australischen sagt man häufig auch Dead horse statt Tom sauce (Tomatenketchup). Rhyming Slang unterliegt keiner normenbildenden Regulierung durch Wörterbücher wie das Oxford English Dictionary, das als Maßstab für die englische Standardsprache gilt. Rhyming Slang wird durch seine Nutzer gestaltet und am Leben erhalten. Begriffe, die den Sprechern zu einer bestimmten Zeit als eingängig erscheinen, werden verwendet und andere fallen gelassen. Beispiele für solche zeitgebundenen Begriffe sind:
 statt tenner (10-£-Schein) reimt man Ayrton und  damit ist der Rennfahrer Ayrton Senna gemeint.
 statt teeth (Zähne) wird heute Hampsteads gereimt, was von Hampstead Heath abgeleitet ist. Im Jahr 1859 wurde dies aber auf Hounslow Heath zurückgeführt.
Untersuchungen haben auch ergeben, dass das traditionelle Cockney auf dem Rückzug aus London ist und durch einen neuen multikulturellen Slang ersetzt wird.

Poussey Washington is a fictional character played by Samira Wiley on the Netflix series Orange Is the New Black. She is a recurring character in the first two seasons and a main character during the third and fourth seasons.

Casting and background
Wiley was first told about the auditions for Orange is the New Black by a friend from Juilliard, Marco Ramirez, who was a writer for the show. After she discovered that another Juilliard friend, Danielle Brooks, had won a role in the show, Wiley asked Brooks to rehearse lines with her to prepare for her audition for the role of Poussey Washington, the on-screen best friend of Brooks' character, Tasha "Taystee" Jefferson. Wiley's audition was ultimately successful; she appeared in 12 out of 13 episodes of the series' first season and was featured throughout the second season. Orange Is the New Black is Wiley's first time as a series regular. Wiley stated that she bartended while filming the first season because she didn't know if she would continue to work with the show, mentioning a previous show that she was listed as "recurring" and not being asked to return after the second episode.

Storylines

Season One
Poussey is first seen in the second episode. However, her character is not properly mentioned until the third episode. She has been in prison for two years at the start of the series, with four years to go. She is almost always shown with Tasha "Taystee" Jefferson (Danielle Brooks), either supporting her or messing around together. When Taystee is granted release on parole, Poussey becomes upset and agitated when she doesn't speak to Taystee before her release. As Taystee is being released, Poussey tries to get her attention; she catches her eye and Taystee does a little dance, which Poussey laughs at through the window. Her mother died during her second year in prison, as revealed in the twelfth episode. Poussey is a good-natured jokester and is revealed to have a good heart; when Tricia Miller (Madeline Brewer) dies, she gives her friends a bottle of her prison-made toilet hooch to help them mourn their loss. When Taystee is re-incarcerated due to a parole violation, Poussey becomes visibly annoyed, but they nonetheless quickly resume their friendship. She is revealed to have a good singing voice in the Christmas play, where she sings a rendition of "Amazing Grace" with Taystee and Cindy "Black Cindy" Hayes (Adrienne C. Moore) during a Christmas performance.

Season Two
It is implied that Poussey is romantically in love with her best friend Taystee, but the feelings are not mutual. This is explored throughout the season. Poussey is approached by Yvonne "Vee" Parker (Lorraine Toussaint) about selling her prison-made toilet hooch, Poussey rejects the idea as she prefers to share it with her friends. Vee takes this as an insult and punishes Poussey over this perceived lack of loyalty and loss of potential business by exploiting her unreciprocated romantic feelings for Taystee to isolate her from the tribe, causing a rift in their relationship. Poussey is one of the few black inmates that does not fall for Vee's manipulation tactics and she begins a campaign to fight Vee's influence and actions throughout the season. Vee uses Poussey's affection for Taystee against her, and their beef becomes violent, much so that at one point, Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren (Uzo Aduba) threatens and physically assaults her on Vee's non-verbal command, which causes Poussey deep emotional trauma. Eventually, Poussey retaliates and causes irreparable damage to Vee's tobacco business by stomping on several tins of tobacco and pouring bleach on them. Realizing that she cannot be intimidated, Vee decides to mollify her by ejecting Taystee from her gang, which she takes out on Poussey. They later make up after a final confrontation in the library.

In flashbacks during the season, some of Poussey's life overseas as a military brat while her father James (Thaddeus Daniels), then a major in the United States Army stationed at United States Army Garrison Hohenfels, Germany is revealed. She was in a sexual relationship with Franziska (Nina Rausch), the daughter of her father's German superior officer Oberstleutnant Jürgen Mertensacker (Stephan Lee Anderson). Revealed to be homophobic, it is implied Jürgen used his influence to get Poussey's father reassigned outside of Germany shortly after he walked in on Poussey and his daughter having sex. The sudden reassignment devastates Poussey, and after initially telling Franziska that their relationship was casual she admits to Jürgen that she loves her. When Jürgen confirms to Poussey that her feelings for his daughter are the reason her father is getting reassigned she attempts to kill him, but her father stops her from pulling a gun on him.

Season Three
Poussey becomes interested in the apparent spiritual teachings of Norma Romano (Annie Golden). After her trouble with Vee and memories of her deceased mother, she becomes depressed and turns to alcohol. She also immerses herself in Suzanne's sci-fi erotica book. She eventually concludes that she feels the way she does because she is lonely, without a girlfriend. In the final episode of the season, Poussey discovers Brook Soso (Kimiko Glenn) in the library after an overdose on antidepressants. She, along with Taystee and Suzanne, nurses Brook back to health. After the incident, Brook is accepted into Poussey's group of friends as one of their own. Brook and Poussey are later seen holding hands and joking around on the beach behind Litchfield, implying a budding relationship.

Season Four
Poussey becomes overjoyed when her favorite celebrity chef, Judy King (Blair Brown) is sent to Litchfield to serve her sentence for tax fraud. Judy is initially assigned to Poussey's bunk in the ghetto, but Joe Caputo (Nick Sandow) quickly removes Judy to put her in a more private area due to orders from MCC to give her special treatment because of her celebrity status. Poussey frequently gets star-struck around Judy, leaving her bemused with the impression she has an intellectual disability. At the same time, a romantic relationship between Poussey and Brook develops throughout the fourth season, though it was temporarily jeopardized when Brook told Judy an offensive and stereotypical narrative of Poussey's background to explain her seemingly odd behavior around her, to include Brook telling Judy that Poussey's mother was a drug addict. Later, Poussey and Brook realize that part of the reason this situation happened because the two do not know each other very well. They resolve to get to know each other's backgrounds.

In the penultimate episode of the fourth season, Poussey is accidentally suffocated by CO Baxter "Gerber" Bayley (Alan Aisenberg) during an initially peaceful demonstration in the cafeteria to protest Captain Desi Piscatella (Brad William Henke) and his unfair treatment of the inmates, where inmates stood on tables and demanded his resignation. When Piscatella calls additional guards for backup, Suzanne becomes upset upon seeing CO Thomas "Humps" Humphrey (Michael Torpey), and Poussey attempts to de-escalate the situation. Piscatella orders Bayley to restrain Suzanne and escort her to psych, which caused Poussey to intervene. While struggling with Suzanne, Bayley improperly restrains Poussey face down while kneeling on her back. As Suzanne continues to struggle with Bayley, he continues to put all of his weight on Poussey, who is unable to breathe and suffocates to death. Angered by the morally questionable response to events, Caputo sends Piscatella home, debriefs Bayley, and contacts MCC. It becomes apparent to Caputo, staff, and inmates, that no response plan exists to address the death of an inmate in general population; Poussey's body is left on the cafeteria floor for a day until the coroner arrives. During MCC's attempt to put the blame on Poussey for her death, it is revealed that she was in prison only as a non-violent offender; she had been convicted of trespassing and possession with intent to sell less than a half-ounce of unspecified drugs. Inmates and staff appear shaken by Poussey's death; Norma comforts Brook by rocking and singing to her, and Brook later gets drunk off the remainder of Poussey's contraband alcohol. Inmates stop by a makeshift memorial, donating food and giving their condolences. Caputo contacts her father James after being asked to do so by Taystee and is visibly upset at having to do so.

Shortly after her death, she appears in several flashbacks that took place in New York City prior to her incarceration. She rides into the city on a bus with two of her friends, who later take her to a nightclub. While taking a picture with her phone, someone steals her phone and flees. She chases the thief and gets lost after being unable to catch them, which results in her running into two people that offer to help her find her friends on the condition that she goes to an alternative club with them. Following her time in the club and getting a chance to call her friends, she heads towards them on the subway and then catches a ride with men dressed as monks participating in Improv Everywhere. While smoking with one of the men, Poussey reveals to him that she lost an appointment to West Point due to her actions in Germany with Franziska and her father Jürgen, and she then states that she was planning to move to Amsterdam in two weeks after she sold off the remainder of her drugs. Appearing to break the fourth wall, she is looking at the river and laughing before she turns to the camera and smiles.

Season Five
Poussey's death continues to be a central issue during the riot. Justice for her is one of the main demands Taystee is pushing for, and she rejects ending the riot in negotiations when the Governor of New York is unable to offer Bayley's prosecution for Poussey's death. She appears in a flashback scene, which shows her meeting Taystee in the prison library during Taystee's first day at Litchfield and how they became friends. Her father James appears onscreen and angrily dismisses Bayley when he comes to his house in an attempt to beg him for forgiveness for her death.

Season Six
Poussey continues to play an important role during the season, with Taystee bringing her up during her murder trial and to Caputo in her quest to get justice and have Bayley charged with her death.

Season Seven
Poussey appears in a flashback that takes place during the events of the first season. She was talking to Taystee on the phone while Taystee was out on parole and the two joked around with each other. In the final episode of the series, Taystee and Judy team up to start the Poussey Washington Fund, an initiative to grant women released from prison microloans to help them get back on their feet after they are released from prison.

Reception
The New Yorker television critic Emily Nussbaum mentions the online outrage and grief among viewers to her death. Nussbaum then states that Poussey's death "was an earned tragedy, resonant for reasons beyond simply "sending a message" about the Black Lives Matter movement" and that "Poussey was educated, world-travelled, and middle-class, but she died as any black inmate might, as a cipher crushed by a racist system."
Fellow cast members were reportedly outraged over series creator Jenji Kohan's decision to kill off Poussey in the fourth season. Kohan spoke about the difficulty of killing her off and the reaction of the cast, but stated that she felt it was a story that needed to be told. Wiley's costars Danielle Brooks and Uzo Aduba spoke on the impact Poussey had on the Black Lives Matter movement.

Poussey Washington Fund
Series creator Jenji Kohan partnered with several non-profit organizations and GoFundMe to start the Poussey Washington Fund, named for Wiley's character Poussey, to assist with female inmates and immigrants. Composed of eight different groups, the stated goals of the fund are to benefit "criminal justice reform, protecting immigrants' rights, ending mass incarceration and supporting women who have been affected by it." The Poussey Washington Fund was announced by Wiley during a video that appeared at Orange is the New Black's final premiere and was officially started when the seventh season debuted.

Shahnaz Husain is both the pioneer and the undisputed queen of herbal care in India. Thirty-four years ago Shahnaz dreamt of pioneering the Indian herbal heritage and Ayurveda, taking them far beyond the boundaries of her country and achieving the kind of international acclaim that has surpassed her wildest dreams. Today, she heads an organization that is the largest of its kind in the world, with an integrated system of an international salon chain, supported by product ranges. Shahnaz belongs to a royal family, who originally came from Samarkhand and later held prominent positions in the royal governments of Bhopal and Hyderabad, during the pre-independence days. It is also a family of eminent legal luminaries. Shahnaz had to comply with existing traditions and entered into an arranged marriage at the tender age of 15, becoming a mother by the time she was 16. She was fortunate to have a broadminded, Oxford-educated father, Chief Justice N.U. Beg, who put her through schooling in an Irish convent and instilled in her a love of poetry and English literature. He also imbued in her the right combination of traditional values and progressive ideas and Shahnaz learnt to love and respect the rich heritage of India. It was her extraordinary personal qualities that made her determined to emerge from a sheltered and secure life and venture into a totally different world of entrepreneurship, where she had to wage a lone battle to fulfil her dreams. When Shahnaz returned to India, after training for 10 years in cosmetology and cosmetic chemistry, in some of the leading institutions in London, New York, Paris and Copenhagen, she started her own herbal salon for skin and hair care. Instead of following the existing salon treatment methods, she decided to adopt the principle of 'Natural Care and Cure' and to apply the Ayurvedic system and formulate custom-made products for skin and hair problems. Today, the Shahnaz Husain Group is engaged in the formulation and marketing of over four hundred Ayurvedic formulations for skin, hair and body care, which have not only become widely known, but have received unprecedented international acclaim. During the last three decades, the Shahnaz Husain Group has acquired a tremendous global presence, having sold at prestigious stores, like Galeries Lafayette (Paris), Harrods and Selfridges (London), the Seibu chain in Japan, Bloomingdales (New York), La Rinascente in Milan (Italy), as well as exclusive outlets and clinics worldwide. In fact, Shahnaz was the first Asian to enter Galeries Lafayette in Paris in herbal care and the first Asian to be featured in the 18-foot shop window of the store. The Group has salons and outlets in prominent locations all over the world, which have extended on a unique franchise system. With the professional infrastructure to support the demands of products and publicity, and tremendous goodwill, the Shahnaz Husain Group has also gone global with its other ventures, like the Shahnaz Husain Forever Beautiful lifestyle shops, Beauty Training Institutes, Ayurvedic Centres and Shahnaz Husain Medispas.
Shahnaz became the first and only woman in 107 years to receive the World's Greatest Woman Entrepreneur Award from Success magazine of the USA. The Shahnaz Husain Group has also received several international awards for Quality, including the Global Quality Management Award for Quality Excellence and Outstanding Woman Entrepreneur 2002, in London. In September 2003, Shahnaz was selected for the prestigious Global Indian "Woman of the Millenium" Award, presented by Global Indian Congress, based in California, USA.


I'm so happy to know that Gading Serpong has evolved with so many culinary destinations. We spotted there's a new restaurant called Clique Kitchen and Bar that is located just before the Toyota Showroom and exactly located at the RuMor (Rumah Motor), Gading Serpong, Tangerang. Clique Kitchen and Bar has been opened on December 13, 2014, and we decided to have lunch there. Located on the second floor of the RuMor's building, Clique immediately stole my attention with its minimalist and charming atmosphere where wooden tables and chairs mostly used. The indoor dining area is very comfortable and spacious, while the outdoor area for smokers is also available, but outside is smaller than the non-smoking area (indoor).
Clique Kitchen and Bar serves a variety of Italian fusion food, such as Pizza, Pasta, Salad, Soup, Sandwich, Seafood, Poultry and Beef, some Asian dishes, and kid's menu as well. All menus looked appealing to me, but because our stomachs were quite full, so we only ordered some of their food recommendations. They also offered us to try their mocktail and signature tea. But the mocktail and signature tea looks similar for me, so I chose Clique Punch to accompany my lunch.
Clique also serves wine and cocktails, and many people opt for them both. Instead of having a cocktail, I prefer to have the Clique Punch; a simple yet very refreshing drink without alcohol. Fresh marquise, mint leaves, ginger ale, everything went well with a hint of lemongrass. It's great to refresh the hot summer day.
I ordered Salmon Gravlax from the salad section. This salad is different because it's served without vegetables like what we ever imagined. Thin slices of raw salted salmon served with oregano. The taste of fresh lemon and the caper dressing blends beautifully with the salmon. It may look simple but luxurious, beautiful texture and flavor of the dressing did not overpower the salmon. We loved it!
Clique also offers homemade pizza with fresh tomato sauce. A selection of pasta is quite interesting as well. Not only Spaghetti and Fettuccine, but also Penne, Fusilli, and Farfalle with several choices of homemade sauces. There was this Fagottini Con Salsa, which looked appealing and unique for me. This little bundle of homemade pasta shaped not unlike a wonton and served with a fresh tomato sauce. The pasta was perfectly cooked and stuffed with delicious fillings, spinach, and ricotta. It was so tasty and delicious, best eaten while its still warm.
From our overall experience, we would recommend you to visit Clique Kitchen and Bar. Each meal presented with an attractive appearance, with reasonable and affordable prices as well, ranging from RP 18.000, – to RP 145.000. The cozy and relaxed atmosphere, attentive staffs, accompanied by easy listening music, Clique Kitchen and Bar could be your next culinary destination.

Domestic violence victim says protection orders don't do enough
Posted 9:52 pm, May 16, 2018, by Bridget Chapman
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A domestic violence victim says she fears for her life and doesn't have trust in Memphis Police to protect her when she needs them.
She has a no-contact order against her ex-boyfriend after she said he abused her for two years.
"There are holes in the walls here and he burned the walls it looks like."
Melody Jacobs showed us damage she believes her ex-boyfriend left behind.
Stats: Domestic violence gets longest response out of violent crimes in Memphis
"Out here is where he burned my stuff."
She's now left with cut up clothes, food left out, a broken window and a destroyed utility box.
Priceless items are also missing.
"I had all the things my children had made me over the years and they're all gone. I mean, he took it all."
Jacobs hadn't been in the home she shared with her ex-boyfriend for about three months when she took us there.
She left the abusive relationship in January and got a no contact order.
"He had told me time and time again he'd kill me if I did any of this, so I really did I was scared to death and that's how I feel still."
The hospital nurse started dating him two years ago.
Although it started off great, it didn't last long.
"The first physical abuse was he head butted me, but it happened in a way where I thought it was an accident. He kind of came towards me and leaned up."
She said the following months involved him cracking her ribs, biting her and beating her.
"It's the worst feeling I've ever had in my life to feel like I don't know what to do."
She thought the order of protection would do what its name suggests: Protect her.
The lease is under her name, so they agreed in court her ex could either take it over or move out within 30 days.
Jacobs said she was told several times Memphis police would go with her when she wanted to get her belongings from the house.
"I worried to death he was out there fixing to shoot me."
She said she tried several times to arrange for officers to go with her, but she says they always gave her different reasons why they couldn't actually follow her to the house to get her items.
Jacobs said some of those reasons were her ex had the right to be there, she should just move, police don't do evictions and they couldn't enforce the court order.
"I didn't get ugly, but I was like, 'What?' This is why women don't leave terrible situations. They just don't."
To make matters worse, she says her ex is now staying with a relative down the street.
Anytime she leaves her home, she has to pass him - putting her in violation of the order.
Police said if she wants him living nearby addressed, she needs to go back to court, which is also frustrating her.
"It really almost, it took my breath. I mean I was just like, 'Man, this is not fair.' I felt like the victim all over again."
After we contacted police about the case, a prosecuting attorney and police officer met with Jacobs.
They filed a vandalism and theft report, and issued a warrant for his arrest for domestic violence.
Records show the warrant is still active for her ex-boyfriend's arrest and he hasn't turned himself in at this time.
We asked Memphis police why officers didn't help Jacobs earlier on, but they stopped responding to our requests for this story.

I wish I'd had this recipe when we were eating kale from our CSA non-stop this summer! Julia doesn't like kale either– but taste it she must. I think it tastes more bitter to children because of their more intense bitter taste sensation when they're young. But– what's a rasher?
I agree. Greens are a tough sell to the little ones, but they ate this hardy green with more enthusiasm than others I have prepared. I made them have more than 1 bite. I pulled out all of the stops–dark leafy greens are the most important food for their health; it takes up to 18 exposures to a new food before you can determine that you don't like it; and you don't have to absolutely love everything that you eat. They'll come around. Their dad loves greens or "leaves" as he likes to call them.
A rasher by the way is a fancy way to say slice or strip of bacon.


HOUSTON – April 2, 2019 – Spring ISD on Monday announced the campus winners in the Teacher of the Year program that recognizes outstanding educators for their passion and commitment to excellence in education.
The teachers were all selected by their campuses to represent their schools in the district's Teacher of Year competition. Among the campus winners, 10 will be selected as finalists for the district's Teacher of the Year.
Those finalists will be unveiled just in time for the district's May 2 Employee Recognition Banquet, from which the district's top teachers – one elementary and one secondary – will be honored. Those two teachers then will go on to represent Spring ISD in the regional competition.
Among the 39 teachers selected, 18 were also honored last week at the annual Lake Houston Area Chamber of Commerce Teacher of the Year luncheon.

Клим Ива́нович Чурю́мов (, 19 февраля 1937, Николаев, СССР — 15 октября 2016, Харьков, Украина) — советский и украинский астроном, первооткрыватель комет 67P/Чурюмова — Герасименко (1969) и C/1986 N1/Чурюмова — Солодовникова (1986).

Член-корреспондент Национальной академии наук Украины, действительный член Нью-Йоркской академии наук, директор Киевского планетария, главный редактор астрономического научно-популярного журнала «Наше Небо» (2006—2009), президент Украинского общества любителей астрономии. Популяризатор науки, детский писатель.

Биография
Был четвёртым из восьми детей Ивана Ивановича и Антонины Михайловны Чурюмовых. Отец погиб во время Великой Отечественной войны в 1942 году.

В 1949 году семья переехала в Киев. После седьмого класса он поступил в Киевский железнодорожный техникум, который окончил с отличием в 1955 году. Получил рекомендацию к поступлению в высшие учебные заведения.

Поступил на физический факультет Киевского государственного университета им. Т. Г. Шевченко (специальность «физика, астрономия»). В 1960 году после его окончания был направлен на полярную геофизическую станцию в бухте Тикси Якутской АССР. Там он исследовал полярные сияния, земные токи и ионосферу.

В 1962 году, вернувшись в Киев, начал работать на заводе «Арсенал», где принимал участие в разработке астронавигационной аппаратуры для космических ракет и её испытании на космодромах Байконур и Плесецк. После окончания аспирантуры Киевского государственного университета (специальность «астрофизика»), где научным руководителем К. И. Чурюмова был профессор С. К. Всехсвятский, остался работать научным сотрудником на кафедре астрономии КГУ. Наблюдал за кометами на загородной станции Киевского университета в селе Лесники и в астрономических экспедициях в высокогорные районы Средней Азии, Кавказа, в Сибирь, Приморский край, на Чукотку и Камчатку.

В 1969 году университет снарядил экспедицию в составе трёх человек, в том числе Клима Чурюмова и Светлану Герасименко, для наблюдения периодических комет в Алма-Ату, в астрофизический институт (теперь Астрофизический институт им. В. Г. Фесенкова).

В 1972 году защитил кандидатскую диссертацию «Исследование комет Икейя-Секи (1967n), Хонда (1968с), Тахо-Сато-Косака (1969) и новой короткопериодической кометы Чурюмова-Герасименко на основе фотографических наблюдений».

В 1993 году в Институте космических исследований РАН (Москва) защитил докторскую диссертацию на тему «Эволюционные физические процессы в кометах».

С 1998 года — профессор Киевского университета им. Т. Шевченко. В январе 2004 году по решению президиума общества «Знание» был назначен директором научно-просветительского центра «Киевский планетарий».

17 февраля 1984 года именем учёного  была названа малая планета (2627) Чурюмов, открытая 8 августа 1978 года Николаем Степановичем Черных в Крымской астрофизической обсерватории. Кроме того, Н. С. Черных назвал открытый им 11 сентября 1977 года в Крымской астрофизической обсерватории астероид № 3942 именем «Чуриванния» в честь двух Иванов Ивановичей Чурюмовых — отца и старшего брата Клима Ивановича Чурюмова, название одобрено Центром малых планет 18 февраля 1992 года.

Ещё одну из малых планет, (6646) Чуранта, открытую 14 февраля 1991 года в Паломарской обсерватории, исследовательница комет и астероидов американский профессор Элеанор Хелин назвала в честь матери Клима Ивановича Антонины Михайловны Чурюмовой, название одобрено Центром малых планет 9 мая 2001 года.

Скоропостижно скончался в больнице от последствий перенесённого инсульта на 80-м году жизни 15 октября 2016 года. Похоронен на Байковом кладбище в Киеве вместе со своей супругой, астрономом Ниной Феофановной Чурюмовой (1939—2018).

Научная деятельность
Основные научные работы в области астрономии комет и астероидов. Работал в Астрономической обсерватории Киевского университета.

В сентябре 1969 года вместе с аспиранткой Светланой Герасименко во время наблюдения за кометой Комас-Сола, сделали фото, на котором оказалась ещё одна комета, получившая название по имени первооткрывателей — «Комета Чурюмова — Герасименко» (67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko).

В 1986 году он открыл вторую, долгопериодическую, комету вместе с В. В. Солодовниковым (из Астрофизического института им. Фесенкова, Казахстан). Она получила название кометы Чурюмова — Солодовникова (C/1986 N1 Churyumov-Solodovnikov).

2 марта 2004 года Клим Чурюмов и Светлана Герасименко присутствовали на космодроме Куру во Французской Гвиане при запуске европейского межпланетного зонда «Розетта» (Rosetta), отправившегося к комете Чурюмова — Герасименко. Основной задачей зонда является исследование кометы Чурюмова — Герасименко, которой он достиг в 2014 году, и 12 ноября отделившийся от зонда спускаемый аппарат «Филы» выполнил 7-часовое сближение и в течение интервала 18:33…20:33 МСК осуществил в целом успешную посадку на поверхность кометы (три посадки с двумя отскоками).

Опубликовал более 800 научных работ, в том числе 4 монографии и 4 учебных пособия. Был научным консультантом по астрономии во время второго издания Украинской советской энциклопедии.

В качестве председателя научных оргкомитетов, организовал и провёл пятнадцать международных астрономических конференций: Всехсвятские чтения (1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010), Международный семинар памяти профессора А. Ф. Богородского и С. К. Всехсвятского (1994), Международные конференции памяти И. С. Астаповича «АИСТ» (1998, 2003, 2008), Международные конференции КАММАК (1999, 2002, 2005, 2008, 2011), Международные конференции «Бредихинские чтения» (1983, 1992).

Под его научным руководством защищены одиннадцать кандидатских диссертаций по физике комет и теории и методике преподавания астрономии.

По инициативе К. И. Чурюмова Международный астрономический союз назвал национальными именами-символами малые планеты:
«(2427) Кобзарь» — в честь Т. Г. Шевченко,
«(2428) Каменяр» — в честь И. Я. Франко,
«(2431) Сковорода» — в честь украинского философа XVIII века Г. С. Сковороды,
«(4868) Кнушевия» — в честь Киевского национального университета (КНУ) им. Т. Шевченко,
«(22616) Боголюбов» — в честь советского физика и математика Н. Н. Боголюбова.

Литературная деятельность
Являлся автором научно-популярных книг и детским писателем — автором нескольких сборников стихов для малышей («Малышам о профессиях», «Малышам о животных», «Ребятам о лодке», «Математика для малышей» (в соавторстве), «Приключения динозаврика Дино»). Автор множества научно-популярных статей.

Награды
За открытие кометы Чурюмова — Герасименко К. И. Чурюмов был награждён медалью Астросовета АН СССР «За обнаружение новых астрономических объектов» (23 декабря 1975).

В 2005 году за цикл работ «Спектральные исследования звёзд и комет» награждён премией имени Н. П. Барабашова НАН Украины (совместно с И. А. Вакарчуком и Н. Г. Щукиной).

В 2003 году был удостоен ордена «За заслуги» III степени, а в 2009 году — II степени.

Являлся членом Международного астрономического союза (с 1979), Европейского астрономического союза (с 1992), Украинской астрономической ассоциации (с 1992); заслуженный работник народного образования Украины (с 1998).

The doctrine of asylum has been in practice as long as codified law has been in existence. Right of asylum, depending on the nature of the charge against someone who sought it, was generally available to most criminal defendants who pursued it and were concerned about their safety in the interim before a trial or other ruling. The Greeks, Egyptians and Hebrews all invoked elements of asylum refugee policy in some way, shape or form. However, political asylum, as it is commonly known today, behaves differently than it did in archaic practice and even but a few centuries ago.
As it was employed in medieval systems of sovereign rule, the idea of asylum was more closely tied to its definition in the religious sense, as a guilty party who sought "asylum" could do so by offering him- or herself as part of a public ceremony that would exculpate the offender of their guilt before God and pave the way for their safe excommunication out of the country and compensation made to the church and the kingdom rather than capital punishment. In this day and age, on the other hand, asylum applies more to status of a foreigner in another country based on humanitarian standards, and often follows very specific determinations.
Analogous to aliens' attempts to cross the Mexican-American border that put them at risk of serious consequences, so is a person's bid for asylum in a desperate attempt to avoid deportation. However, in terms of the processing of asylum claims to verify whether or not they are valid, this can often involve considerable amounts of time and last chances for the prospective deportee, even if his or her changes are fairly dubious.
While the terms "asylum" and "refugee" may be used synonymous by many, and the government form for a relative or spouse to come to America based on asylum or refugee status is the same, according to the separate systems of benefits afforded to asylees and refugees in the United States and according to definitions both here and abroad, it is important to properly categorize them.
