We all have our pet grammar peeves, usages that, when we hear them, affect us like the sound of a fingernail against a chalkboard.
A boxer is different than a Doberman.
This car is different to that one.
Yet, are these usages really incorrect?
These three have been usage items for many years. All are Standard and have long been so (different to is limited to British English, however), but only different from seems never to meet objections.
Here logic supports established usage: one thing differs from another, hence, different from. Or, other than, unlike.
That different can only be followed by from and not by to is a superstition.
He points out that "writers of all ages" have used different to. He does not mention the use of different than.
It would seem, then, that any of the three is acceptable.
…for Formal and Oratorical levels: stick with different from.
Eeek! I shudder, too, when reading "different than". Aurally, I might not notice it so much.
It reminds me of my uncertainty about another expression that bugs me: when people say "waiting ON" someone rather than "waiting FOR" someone. It may stem from my reaction from years of waitressing that I am never, ever waiting ON someone unless as a waitress. Is there a non-waitressing context where "waiting ON" is the correct usage instead of "waiting FOR"? Is the former just colloquial or slang?
I agree that "waiting on" in the sense of "waiting for" is non-standard usage. It's a regionalism.
In standard usage "We were waiting on the bus" indicates that the speaker was inside the bus and waiting. I would say "I was waiting for Charlie and not on Charlie, unless I was his waitress. Ladies-in-waiting are said to "wait upon the queen," in the sense of attending to her needs.
I wait in line to buy a ticket, but on line for a slow page to load.
The one that turns my Murder Mode on is "Try and hit me".
It has taken a great effort on my part to learn to place the period inside the quotation marks. When in Rome.
I was so pleased to know that others out there cringe at 'different than' plus, as a Brit, I have taken a long time as well to adjust to putting the comma inside the quotation marks.
While it may be appropriate to have the above errors made in certain dialogue, do we not, as writers, have some obligation to write correctly?
Perhaps I'm alone in this?
In an effort to do my part in this war against standard English I've started my own site called the American English Doctor. It's targeted to parents of children who attend public schools (American version). Its purpose is to provide parents with the information and encouragement they need to measure their children's literacy in a meaningful way. Teaching quality varies enormously from school to school and Eduspeak tends to obscure how much learning is actually taking place.
Let me thank you foremost for starting DWT Vocabulary Test. It is wonderful to have something like this. Took the test and felt that I had answered everything perfectly…but sadly on checking the answers realized that I had scored only 80%. Am sure I will do better next time. Thank you once again.
Thanks for your comment, Asha.
Credit for the vocabulary test belongs to Daniel.
On this occasion Maeve, the period is correctly plkaced outside the quotation marks.
I'm all for adopting "them/they/their" as standard usage for a singular, neutral pronoun. Modern english otherwise lacks such a pronoun, and having to utilize "he or she", "him or her", etc. is a mouthful and a ridiculous nuisance. I'm all for doing away with antiquated rules that impose undue hindrance upon standard language speakers. Language rules are not written in stone and can be changed. Same goes for dangling prepositions.
Firstly, Glen cannot spell 'Orally'.
This is because 'different than' is completely out of the question.
Finally, 'different to' is the correct version, end of. 'Different from' is a modern phrase that is actually wrong, but hard to prove seeing as so many people use it, including Oxbridge-graduated politicians.
Hugo, Gwen was quite correct to use "aurally" as that refers to hearing and she was commenting on how she would react to hearing, rather than reading, a phrase.
"Orally" refers to speaking and it is quite obvious that she would not choose to speak such a phrase.
Sorry, Hugo (April 22), but 'different to' is NOT the correct version, and if you read my reasons (which are just a bit too complex for this space), you will agree with me, I'm sure.
If you place your e-mail address on this site, I'll send you the attachment which will change your mind.
Hugo: your e-mail address as given had 'permanent delivery errors'. Please check it or give me an alternative.
Same problem, Hugo. Permanent delivery errors.
A question to most on here… Does it matter? Language is organic and constantly changing. There are words and phrases in existence now that were unheard years ago and other ones used in different ways!
If new words/meanings/semantics become 'normal', does that not make them correct? After all, the rules you are using are only set out based on how the language had evolved to the point in time the rules were written.
As long as the message gets across, isn't there already enough to worry about in life?
The most important argument for using language correctly is that accuracy of meaning should be maintained. "Waiting on" and "Waiting in" are prime examples. They are used in the same context but one conveys an entirely different meaning from the other.
'Different from' is correct, and 'different to' is passable, although not preferable. However, 'different than' is appalling grammar and should never be used. Think about it, the flip-side of it would be 'similar than' (should be 'similar to'). I can't understand why people don't hear that it is wrong. 'Bigger/smaller than,' 'more/less/fewer than' all work. 'Different than' only seems to be used in US and, to a lesser extent, Canada. New Zealand, Australia, UK, Ireland etc. wouldn't say it.
No, Zaphod. Not at all. Yes language evolves, but obviously some standards need to be maintained as it can completely alter the meaning, or not make sense.
OK: despite my note of 25 May above, I will give my full commentary on the 'different from/to' debate here. We differentiate one thing FROM another, just as we distinguish one thing FROM another. As I understand the etymology, to 'confer' is to carry (ferre) towards or together (con-) and to differ is to carry (ferre) away from (dis-). The directional implication of 'differ' is certainly 'from' rather than 'to'. A con-ference is a coming together: a dif-ference is a going apart.
There is no challenging the logic of 'different from', then. But there's another helpful pair of opposites in this debate. I may liken you TO an ostrich; but if I say you are not like an ostrich, then you must differ FROM an ostrich. Just as 'liken' and 'differ' imply opposite states of affairs, so 'to' and 'from' reinforce that opposition.
There are many Latin words beginning with the prefix 'dis-' which have a basic sense of separation (from): for example, distraho means to pull apart, and the past participle of this verb (distractum) gives us the Englsih word 'distracted' (pulled apart). And discedo means 'I depart from' or 'I go away from' ('dis-' with 'cedo', I go). 'Dis-', meaning apart or in different directions, (e.g. disconcerting, disconnected), always becomes (whether in Latin or English) 'dif-' before an 'f' (therefore different, diffuse).
More ridiculous was a circular letter issued by MacMillan Cancer Relief in 2005, which stated: 'When men have cancer, they tend to react differently to women.' In other words, when men have cancer they don't react to women in the same way as they did before they had cancer. That is what they said, but of course it isn't what they meant.
More recently, the BBC told us (06/11/2005) that 'David Cameron would take a markedly different approach to Tony Blair'. Dave's attitude to Tone was surely not at issue.
Upon those broadcasters who, in increasing numbers, speak of 'colummists', I can only wish eternal dammation. Before they enter into condemmation of me for this imagined calummy, I am happy to indemmify them with the following ammesty. To earn forgiveness, they need only take a week-long autummal break on the Rommey, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway, stopping at every station to eat simmel cake and sing from the English Hymmal.
I love you, Brian! The Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway is good, but yeah, I would hate it after a week.
I agree that language should be preserved, but when it's preserved at the expense of being understandable, then it's time for hard-line grammarians to back down.
Language evolves, and we ought to be making sure that it's Evolving, not DEvolving. That said, the purpose of language is to communicate clearly and practically. While there's certainly call for a degree of pedantry here, I will always fall on the side of the practical, whether prevailing academic wisdom is on my side or not.
It is fun to comment in places like this and it allows us to vent our frustrations. I also learned long ago to vote with my dollars. If I do not like a company, a product, or an advertisement, I do not spend my money there. For example, I no longer buy from Carl's Jr. / Hardee's after their ad campaign I call "Trash America" because they promoted littering. I'll never buy "Omnaris" because they do things "differently than." You can find your own examples. If you don't like the way they do things, don't give them your money.
If ever my brother or I make the 'different to' error while talking to or near my dad, he corrects us straight away, and I love him for it because I love correct grammar and spelling. Prior to Dad starting his mission to filter out his children's 'bad' language I dont think I realised I was doing it and I am glad I now realise every time I make the mistake. God help anyone who trips up over this grammatical pavement in the same way in front of me from now on.
Brian I love you! You put it so clearly. "Different to" drives me nuts.
This evening my lecturer commented on my writing, "Well, you can go out if you still use 'different to'". Oh, my, I was so embarrassed!
The increasing unnecessary use of 'into' is driving me crazy. Trains, for instance, now arrive 'into the station' according to British train announcements. On food programmes ingredients are placed 'into the bowl'.
And while I'm at it, there's a tendency to start using adjectives as nouns, most notably 'nuclear' as in 'After the Japanese earthquake, should we be using nuclear?' and 'organic', as in the current campaign run by the Soil Association with the strap-line 'I love organic".
Because of all this disagreement over the usage of "none," we have taken that question off our editorial test.
Have only just found this site and would like to comment on the original topic.
"Different to" could possibly be construed as correct if you consider the implied "when compared" between the words. Not my cup of tea and sounds too harsh to my ears. I do prefer and always use "different from".
There is no way in the proper English language, even today, that "different than" could be considered correct.
It seems that it might just be me that finds "different to" a lot more pleasing on the ears than "different from", certainly in some circumstances at least.
If one says, "he is different from the rest," then that sounds fine.
However, "I'm different from you," seems to sound ugly to me and I'm not sure why. In my opinion, "we're different" or "we're not the same" seem much more elegant and avoid a grammatical debate.
In any case, to concur, I never like "different than" but I can't say that I hear it or see it used too often aside from by those speaking American English.
I'll stick with "different to", thanks. "Different from" sounds cumbersome, and if something can be similar to something else, then it can also be different to something else.
As for the example, "Britain is trying to sell a different message to the Americans", I could as easily say, "Britain is trying to sell a similar message to the Americans" and have exactly the same ambiguity you're trying to demonstrate.
I think what the article says needs to be re-emphasized: Different to is entirely British. It is not standard or acceptable at all in American, where different than is the problem and different from is the solution. Different to doesn't even make sense, and I don't recall ever hearing it in the US. It sounds very "wrong" over here, akin to a mistake a non-native speaker would make.
Different than is used chiefly in North America, although its use is increasing in British English. Because it can be followed by a clause, it is sometimes more concise than different from (compare "things are different than they were a year ago" with "things are different from the way they were a year ago").
TO is the preposition of connection (married to, similar to) and FROM is the preposition of separation (divorced from, different from).
Social websites exist to connect us TO others. Bodyguards exist to protect people FROM attack.
Unfortunately Graham muddies the issue when he suggests that 'different to' could possibly be justified if the words 'when compared' are inserted – i.e. 'different when compared to…'. He ignores the old and still logical distinction between 'compared to' and 'compared with'. Shakespeare's 'Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?' means 'Shall I say that you are like a summer's day?'. But if I compare you WITH a summer's day, all I am doing is looking at you and a summer's day and considering how those two things are similar and how they are different. Many people now use 'compared to' when they mean 'compared with'.
It's silly not to preserve this distinction, as it impoverishes our language. When I used to set A-level papers I never asked candidates to 'compare and contrast', simply because the last word adds nothing to the question: if you compare, you look at the two things under consideration and you say in what ways they are similar and in what ways they are contrasted.
Thanks for the advice and I just found you blog. A really nice one. You got another regular 🙂 Have you ever thought of creating a podcast or something along those lines? I'm sure that there's a huge audience out there, which is eager to learn how to use English correctly.
It may be a tiny detail, but I reckon that compromised scaffolding for that matter.
I really like Sheila's answer. That is exactly what I had in mind, but was not able to put into words.
According to Oxford English Dictionaries, all 3 uses are acceptable with no real justification for claiming otherwise. It goes on to say there is little difference in sense between the three expressions, and all of them are used by respected writers.
in your discussion of "different from and different to" you gave a splendid account of the way that words should be used in a way that reflects their meanings.
Not all changes in usage are good; some introduce new and colourful meanings that extend the range of expressive and powerful words available, while some changes simply reflect the misunderstandings of illiterate celebreties.
Drop the over-analysis! "Different than" is a howler, as abysmal as "definately", "he had did", "I dove" instead of "I dived", and more and worse, all results of the over-indulgent, laissez-faire teaching of English prevalent in the USA. The sick joke is that we in the UK see all this rubbish making its way, not "it's way", into UK usage of English thanks to the absolute deluge of terrible language and rank bad language "published" all over the web.
People seem to believe that if it's on the web it must be true. Innit?
As a survivor of American public schools and presently substitute teaching in public schools, I agree wholeheartedly with the "laissez-faire teaching of English prevalent in the USA." Absolutely! I see 'it's way' present in so much media it makes me scream. My cringe-trigger: using 'snuck' as the past of sneak. Sneak, snack, snuck. That is up there with bring, brang, brung. The dumbing down marches on.
How can 'different than' make any sense? The word 'than' denotes a comparison of measurable degrees e.g. 'better than…', 'worse than…', nicer than…' or 'calmer than..'. But difference cannot intrinsically be comparable. Something is either different or its not.
Additionally, it is reasonable to assume that anyone who believes it is right to say 'different to' must equally (and logically) believe its right to say 'similar from'.
Logically speaking, anything different is 'separate and apart from' — and can never be 'separate and apart to' or worse, 'separate and apart than'. Grammar is never British or American, its always just sensible.
And yes, all my 'its' are wrongly missing an apostrophe (yikes!) and after all that preaching!lol.

The Abu Zinada that the infection in hospitals, related to several factors, including the number and density of organisms contaminated in the environment, the degree of resistance, quality and the degree of resistance to the individual's physical them, as there are catalysts for the spread and growth of these pollutants like the factors of physical (natural) heat and moisture and light or darkness in the environment in which there are, also contributes to environmental pollution chemist and physicist in the intensification of the growth and activity of bio-contaminants, in addition to the direct adverse effects to public health and the causes of occupational diseases.

Male nurse in Jeddah dies of coronavirus
Last updated: Sunday, April 06, 2014 10:53 PM
JEDDAH ? A male nurse, who was in a coma after contracting the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV), died Saturday night, hospital sources were quoted as saying by the Sabq news website.
Bandar Bin Salim Al-Kuthairy, 27, who worked for King Abdulaziz Hospital in south Jeddah, got infected with the virus just two days after getting married.
A colleague of Al-Kuthairy was quoted as saying that he left for his village in Madinah province to tie the knot with a girl there, but came back two days later to the hospital suffering from breathing difficulties and a high fever.
The nurse contracted the disease before leaving his place of work as there were three similar cases in the emergency ward, said a relative of the victim.
However, Dr. Isha Mutwali, director of preventive medicine, denied the nurse had contracted the disease inside the hospital.
She added that sufficient precautions had been taken to protect hospital staff against the disease.
But Al-Kuthairy?s father Salim told Al-Eqtisadiah Arabic language daily that his son got the virus while nursing some patients in the hospital who had the disease.
Dr. Sami Badawood, director of Jeddah Health Affairs, said the male nurse was the first Saudi to fall victim to the virus in Jeddah.
He said the hospital?s staff, especially those who interact with patients regularly, were examined and were found to be free from the virus...


We know what we want the end result to be, but we don't know what needs to be done to achieve it. How can ediaro help us?
Yes, our easy to use web application makes this easy, with attendant online manual and excellent customer service. You can easily log into a web browser to make changes to your own site. This is a very popular option for businesses that would prefer to save money by making their own site updates.
If you have a small website consisting of just a few pages and will only wish to make changes very infrequently, then usually it is more cost effective simply to ask ediaro to carry out these changes for you. Other methods which are frequently chosen are largely dependent upon how much data or information and pictures you have and how you store this information at present.
ediaro Web developers Team can offer you a complete Web Maintenance Support Plan. From minor to major changes, a support plan is a custom at ediaro Webcentre to fully support any website we design and are always available should you encounter any problems or require any enhancements. We offer web site maintenance so that your website need never get out of date. We will offer you the convenience and flexibility of updating, modifying or adding to your website with the relative ease of a phone call or an email to ediaro. In addition, a support contact can offer you the benefits of Online Marketing and hosting services for improved website performance.
Alternatively, should you wish to manage your own website, a custom built web editing software (Popularly known as, Content Management Solution or CMS) will be used to develop your website - to make this easy for you to manage, when back by our training and support service. We design easy to maintain CSS based websites, so that by changing the CSS attributes you can do a site wide design change in minutes.
If you develop with a Content Management System (CMS)- can I be sure that my webpages are "Search Engine Friendly"?
Yes with the ediaro Content Management System (CMS), all web pages created are Search Engine Friendly - you can even add your own search engine meta tags to each individual web page if desired. THe CMS tools are easy to use - effective and intuitive.
That said, an average time for a site to be deployed is 2-4 weeks. However, this depends on the complexity of the pages and also on the participation level of the customer. It is crucial for the customer to provide ediaro with all requested information on a timely basis. We will involve the customer as much (or as little!) as they desire. Some prefer to be part of the process along every step, while others would rather let us use make decisions based on our past experiences.
Content is all the text and images that are found on your website. We feel that you know your business the best and that is why we like to have our clients write their own content, though we can assist you. The collection process involves us identifying what it is we need to get from you, sending you a list, and working with you to obtain each item.
Do you do fixed Price Quotations or Time based billing – and which is better for the customer?
Traditional Web Design and Development companies tend to use time-based billing practices. However, time-based billing has a number of significant drawbacks for their clients. For example, what happens if your project takes longer or requires more resources than the developer originally estimated? What happens if you want to add a new feature that was not included in the original design?
ediaro Webcentre is not your traditional Web Creation Company. We are proud to offer our clients fixed-price quotations for any projects we undertake. After all, you are investing in an outcome, not a block of our time or a list of software features.
I like your work, but how can I use you if I am in London and you are in Abuja?
This is the beauty of the internet. Roughly 40% of our clients have never met the person developing their website face to face. Between the telephone and email it is a simple process. If we need to run a visual concept past a client, the concept is uploaded to a private site on the internet where the client can see it, give feedback and, in many cases, even watch the changes being made while discussing it on the telephone.
Why do I need a website, I don't even own a computer?
You do not need a computer to be on the internet. It is the same as taking an advert in a newspaper that you never read. The advert is aimed at reaching your target market. A website is the same. It is not for your benefit, but for the express purpose of reaching that segment of your market who do have and use their computers to find things on the internet.
You would merely provide no email contact, but still give all other contact details. The number of people who are using the internet as a preferred resource is growing by the day and this is a sector of the market that you stand to lose if you do not have a website.
We stand out from our competition in being able to offer very high quality work at a reasonable price. Our websites are custom-made and tailored specifically for you. Also, we are able to offer integrated media solutions; meaning, we do more than just web design and programming. We also do video production, audio production, lighting, and graphic design. We can create an entire brand or identity for your company, create sales and promo videos, develop print materials (brochures, letterheads, etc), and then base the website around all of these.
Why are you so expensive? (...or why are you so cheap?)?
We are not the least expensive web developers out there; nor are we the most expensive. Instead, we try to produce work of the highest quality and place ourselves at a middle-of-the-road price point. We believe clients who value quality will be willing to pay for it, but still want to get a good deal in the process!
What is your acceptable Payment Options?

Web programming handles everything from a simple feedback form to a complex eCommerce system.If you have many products/services, then it may be advantageous to have a database incorporated into your website design.
We will discuss this in detail with you and if a database is advised we will explain in detail exactly how this will work. We can tailor your website design to suit your specific requirements.

Justia Dockets & Filings Tenth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals, Tenth Circuit United States v. Marchand-Martinez Filing 920080422
United States v. Marchand-Martinez
FILED United States Court of Appeals Tenth Circuit UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT April 22, 2008 Elisabeth A. Shumaker Clerk of Court UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. ALBERTO MARCHAND-MARTINEZ, Defendant-Appellant. No. 07-2135 (D.C. No. CR-06-2229) (D. N.M.) ORDER AND JUDGMENT * Before BRISCOE, PORFILIO, and BALDOCK, Circuit Judges. Defendant Alberto Marchand-Martinez was convicted after a jury trial of one count of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute 100 kilograms and more of marijuana, in violation of 21 U.S.C. �� 841(b)(1)(B) and 846, and one count of possession with intent to distribute 100 kilograms and more of marijuana, in violation of 21 U.S.C. � 841(a)(1) and (b)(1)(B) and 18 U.S.C. � 2. After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously to grant the parties' request for a decision on the briefs without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(f); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument. This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. It may be cited, however, for its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R. App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1. * He had moved for a judgment of acquittal at the close of the government's case, but the district court denied the motion and subsequently sentenced him to sixty-three months on each count, with the sentences to run concurrently. Defendant appeals from his convictions, arguing that the evidence was insufficient to support the verdict. Exercising jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. � 1291, we affirm. Summary of the Evidence Presented at Trial In the early morning hours of July 21, 2006, Border Patrol agents stopped a blue van with Mexican license plates at a fixed border checkpoint in New Mexico. The van was being driven by Pedro Nauriza-Uribe, defendant was in the front passenger seat, and five other people were riding on top of a compartment that had been built into the cargo area of the van. Nauriza told an agent that he was traveling to Oklahoma to purchase cars and take them back to Mexico. While one Border Patrol agent conducted an immigration inspection of the passengers, another agent conducted an inspection of the van with a narcotics dog. The dog alerted, and agents ultimately discovered 129 bundles of marijuana in the van with a net weight of 282.5 kilograms and worth from half a million to a million dollars. An agent of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) interviewed defendant after his arrest. Defendant told him that the group was traveling to -2- Oklahoma City to buy cars at a police auction and deliver them to Juarez, Mexico. Defendant said that he was in charge of the group and that his boss, "Betote," had given him $1200 to pay the group's travel expenses. Defendant said that he used a Motorola cell phone the agent found in the van to communicate with his boss during the trip. Agents also found an insurance certificate for the van. It showed the license plate number for the van, a VIN number matching the van's VIN number except for the last three digits, defendant's home address and age, and was signed "Alberto Machado." Agents compared the certificate to defendant's Mexican voter registration card, which showed the same address, but one DEA agent later came to believe that it was not defendant's signature on the certificate. A check on the license plate for the van determined that it was not registered to anyone, which was said to be very unusual. A DEA agent testified at trial that the owner of such a high quantity, high-value load of marijuana would not have entrusted it to a first-time transporter, but would have met with the transporters to give them money, travel directions, and instructions. Nauriza testified that he met defendant in early 2006. He said that defendant and a man named Alberto Perez hired him to transport cars from Oklahoma City. Nauriza understood that Perez owned the cars and was the boss, and that defendant was the manager. Nauriza had made approximately ten trips to Oklahoma City with defendant before the July 2006 trip. He said that usually seven people went together in one of three vans, each -3- with a built-in platform in the back instead of rear seats. Nauriza said he was told that the vans had platforms so that tools could be stored under them and the drivers could sleep on top of them. Nauriza said that on July 20, 2006, defendant called to tell him they were leaving from Perez's house at 9:00 p.m. When Nauriza arrived there, a man named Hector told him that the white van they had planned to take was not running well and they would take the blue van instead. Nauriza found it strange that Hector got the blue van out of the garage because the vans were usually parked on the street. He also was concerned that there could be something illegal in a trash bag he saw partially hidden under some tools and tires because he had never seen such a bag on any of the previous trips. After Nauriza was arrested, he was placed in a cell next to defendant's cell. Defendant slipped several letters to Nauriza under the cell door, setting out a fabricated story for them to use. Defendant also asked Nauriza in these letters to take all of the blame for the drugs and not to turn in a man called "Tocayo," which Nauriza took to mean Alberto Perez because "Tocayo" in Spanish means another person with the same name. Nauriza saved the letters and later gave them to his attorney because he did not intend to take the blame for an offense he had not committed. -4- Issue on Appeal and Discussion Defendant argues that the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction for conspiracy or possession. He asserts that his presence in proximity to illicit activity was insufficient, citing United States v. McMahon, 562 F.2d 1192, 1196 (10th Cir. 1977). "We review the record for sufficiency of the evidence de novo." United States v. Wilson, 107 F.3d 774, 778 (10th Cir. 1997). "[T]he relevant question is whether, after viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution, any rational trier of fact could have found the essential elements of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt." Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 319 (1979). "[W]e evaluate the sufficiency of the evidence by considering the collective inferences to be drawn from the evidence as a whole." United States v. Johnson, 130 F.3d 1420, 1428 (10th Cir. 1997) (quotations and alteration omitted). Based on our review of the record in light of the applicable standards of review set out above, we conclude that the evidence was more than sufficient to support defendant's convictions. The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED. Entered for the Court Bobby R. Baldock Circuit Judge -5-


I'm Shihan Dana Abbott and my expertise is in Kenjutsu where I have earned the rank of Shihan 7th Degree Black Belt. I teach Tachi-iai: Toyama-Ryu Iai Batto Do Japanese Swordsmanship.
I became interested and involved with the sword 38-years ago when I was attending ASU. It was something that was always a mystery and held a great deal of intrigue for me. I searched to no avail to find a qualified instructor from whom I could relate and learn from. A few years after graduating in 1978, I found that I still had the drive to truly pursue this dream of mine.
Consequently, I quit my job, sold everything that could not be put into a box and went to Japan where the masters and the best schools are located. If I was ever going to find an exceptional teacher this was certainly going to be the place. With focused determination and being in the right place at the right time I enrolled in Nihon Taiiku Diagaku, Tokyo's esteemed martial arts university.
I learned kendo/ iaido / kenjutsu and learned it well. These old school masters from the Showa era were extremely diligent in their teachings. For 14 years I ate, slept and lived my studies. All my training and certification is through the Japanese Department of Education and Recreation where everyone receives a fair and equal chance of learning Japanese swordsmanship.
During my career I have written and published five books, designed a US Patent and created a complete new niche in the martial arts industry. I have conducted seminars in over 30 countries and hold the esteemed rank of Shihan, seventh degree black belt obtained at the Hombu dojo in Yokohama, Japan. Below are honors and awards I have received over the past ten years.
At the beginning of the Meji restoration the ancient "Way of the Samurai" and mindset was changing into a modern Japanese military. This attracted many provincial samurai who came to Tokyo to serve. These soldiers incorporated many of their ancestors' koryu techniques into their swordsmanship. These ancient techniques were solid but proved difficult to standardize for a modern military.
To standardize a modern military circa 1875 the military university, Rikugun Toyama Gakku, was established in Shinjuku, Tokyo by Lieutenant General Uzawa who was also chancellor. He wrote the famous Japanese military sword manual depicting 5 basic forms in (Gunto no Souhou). To break down the name, "gun" means military, "to" means sword, "sou" means control, and "hou" means rule or law was first published to homogenize various Koryu (ancient) techniques into a Gendai (modern) version to create a simple and efficient sword system that can be used everywhere, by everyone, in every situation.
At the beginning of the Showa era, Tabata Shigeyoshi was called upon to administer and redesign the training system adding new forms to the originals. Tabata Shigeyoshi was the overseer of this system from 1925 until the end of WW2. Note: In 1925 the name Gunto no Souhou was changed to Toyama-Ryu due to the harsh meaning of the original name.
After WW2, Nakamura Taizaburo was asked to start teaching swordsmanship again by his superior, Tabata Shigeyoshi, at a time when it was illegal to practice a military sword discipline. Over the next 4 decades Nakamura Taizaburo's swordsmanship helped promote Toyama-Ryu into an internationally known and practiced sword system. Nakamura Taizaburo was knighted by the Emperor of Japan.
Tanabe Tetsundo (my direct teacher) was the Secretary for the All Japan Ju-kendo Federation, founded by General Imamura in 1955. He became a student of Nakamura Taizaburo who was practicing Toyama-Ryu under the auspices of the All Japan Ju-kendo Federation. Tanabe Tetsundo was instrumental for getting Toyama-Ryu out in the public eye through all the books he wrote with Nakamura sensei. He also established the All Japan Goshindo Federation in 1969.

Is This The Next Cadel?
Posted: 27-Jul-2011 by Maccabi VIC
4 States, 4 Tours, 4 Wins!
Year six King David School student and racing cyclist, Riley Hart, has had a road season to remember. After winning the 'expert' under-13 road race at the Australian School Cycling Championships back in March, Hart entered the Winter road season on good form and with the major goal of winning the Canberra Junior Tour – the premier Junior Tour in the Nation.
With victory already locked away in the Wagga Wagga (NSW), Mersey Valley (TAS) and Shepparton (VIC) Junior Tours, Hart was full of confidence heading into the demanding and highly regarded Canberra event that attracts the best juniors from across Australia and NZ. Past winners include Matthew Goss (currently riding the Tour de France), Cameron Meyer and Jack Bobridge.
"Cameron Meyer is the rider I look up to most. I want to follow a similar pathway, focusing on track cycling and then hopefully ending up riding on the road. I email Cam and we compare times from when he was my age." Hart shares.
The weather was fine but very windy and cold (-1.5 with wind-chill). A hilly 4.5km time trial opened proceedings. Second quickest to the halfway mark, Hart flew down the descent, hitting a top speed of 69kmph, to take the win by some 11-seconds. In the afternoon 18km road race, the effects of late nights at Habo camp were perhaps starting to take their toll as Hart was dropped on the final climb to finish sixth.
Day two weather mirrored the first, but Hart's legs were feeling better. After missing a two-man breakaway at the turnaround, Hart worked hard to win a bunch sprint for third. This put him third in General Classification with one stage still to go; Hart needed to finish two places ahead of the leading rider and beat the rider holding down second.
Stage four was a 12-lap criterium on a demanding circuit. It was closely raced with attack after attack launched, only to be closed down. It wasn't until a final lap attack by Hart that the peloton split. Hart drove the pace from a long way out and just got caught on the line to finish second. However his major rivals weren't in the first four places, so the win was his.
"That was pretty hard, but I'm proud to have won from a tough situation. It's definitely the best junior tour in Australia and I really wanted to add my name to the honour roll." Hart said. "Next up is the State Championships on the 6th and 7th of August up at Wangaratta. And I'm also looking forward to riding the Great Vic Bike Ride with school and to racing the Victorian Schools Cycling Championships later next month."

Russell Wangersky has been named a finalist in the columns category for the 70th annual National Newspaper Awards (NNA) competition.
Based at The Telegram, Wangersky is an Atlantic regional columnist for Saltwire Network.
The finalists in the 21 categories, chosen for work published in 2018, were announced Monday.
The other nominees in the columns category with Wangersky are Nathalie Petrowski of La Presse and Niigaan Sinclair of the Winnipeg Free Press.
Wangersky was recognized for three columns — the suicide of a paramedic after the mosque shooting in Quebec City, a night stay in a Prince Edward Island hotel and the problems of modern political campaigns promising cheap beer in exchange for votes.
"The columns category at the National Newspaper Awards regularly gets more entries than almost any category they have," Wangersky said.
It marks the seventh time Wangersky has been a nominee for a NNA.
He was a finalist for editorials in 2002, 2004 and 2011 and for columns in 1997, 2000 and 2014 — and was chosen the winner in both 2002 and 2011.
A well-known freelance cartoonist, Michael de Adder, whose work has been featured in several SaltWire daily papers, including the Halifax Chronicle Herald and, as of last month, The Telegram, is a finalist in the editorial cartooning category.
De Adder, whose cartoons have also been published in Brunswick News and The Toronto Star, is in the running for the award with Brian Gable of The Globe and Mail, and Garnotte (Michel Garneau) of Le Devoir.
The NNA awards were established by the Toronto Press Club in 1949 to encourage excellence and reward achievement in daily newspaper work in Canada. The competition is now open to daily newspapers, news agencies and online news sites approved for entry by the NNA board of governors.
The winners will be announced at an awards ceremony in Toronto May 3.

Update: BlackBerry KeyOne is now a year old and the follow-up, BlackBerry Key2, is here. But if you're still interested in the KeyOne, it's cheaper and there's a better 'Black Edition' with a tweaked design, more RAM and additonal internal storage.
For a few pennies more, an all-black model is also available for the discerning executive (dubbed 'Black Edition'), with a little more RAM and internal storage to boot.
It borrows camera specs from other top-tier top phones, with a 12MP sensor right out of the Google Pixel. Photos are good, though the shared specs only go so far: it doesn't have the same backend camera image stabilization software and its front-end camera app is a mess.
In the UK, it was launched early at London's prestigious Selfridges and eventually came to Carphone Warehouse on May 5. More UK retailers and carriers have come on board, including John Lewis and Currys.
For those looking for even more power, the new 'Black' Edition is available in certain markets, packing a smart new all-black paint job plus more RAM and double the storage compared to the base model. It's currently retailing for £549 in the UK.
Blackberry KeyOne has three-word suggestions across the bottom of the touchscreen as part of its contextual next word prediction engine. It's smart, but doesn't have punctuation predictions or, like iOS 10, emoji predictions. That's too fun for a BlackBerry.
The good news is that this flaw has been addressed as an issue in the manufacturing process by TCL, and a fix was implemented to ensure new handsets rolling off the production line wouldn't suffer the same fate.
The good news is that the blended fingerprint sensor works really well here with a near 0% fail rate (assuming your fingers aren't wet). It's also easy to access on the front and it can wake the phone from a screen-off state.
There's also a custom 'convenience' button we mapped to the camera app, but found it more annoying than helpful due to its easy-to-mispress location. "Oh, the camera is open... again." The inability of this button to also wake the device from sleep further limits its usefulness day-to-day.
There's no upside to the mono speaker on the bottom frame. It helps no one – on-the-go entertainment seekers and business speakerphone devotees alike.
The device is razor focused on the tasks of typing and reading text, which doesn't often lend it well to the realities of owning a top-tier smartphone in 2017.
The BlackBerry KeyOne display shares the front face of the phone with the keyboard, so it can't compare to an trendy new all-screen Android phone. You just can't have everything in life.
BlackBerry Hub works because of deep customization. You customize alert rules to effortlessly toggle which accounts show up instead of doing it one-by-one. In our custom 'Vacation Mode,' we turned off Twitter, Slack and work email alerts, but kept texts and Facebook Messenger enabled. We reserved it in our 'Daily Work Day' recipe for a productive day – all done without unticking individual account boxes each time.
BlackBerry KeyOne's has a stock Android vibe, but we found the tweaked recent menu helpful. It opens up your most recent apps in an assorted gridview that's easier to browse through than with the fanned-out look of every other phone.
BlackBerry's camera app is unfixable nuisance. It has very few modes (Photo, Pano, Video and Slow-Mo) and they're all hidden in a mode menu. That means you have to dig into a menu to switch between photos and videos instead of having available on the screen at all times. It's a cumbersome, unintuitive mess.
Its 3,505mAh battery capacity is rated for 26 hours, but we found lasted longer by draining only 2% when we left it idle at night (testing time: exactly eight hours). So 26 hours turned out to be closer to 36 hours for us. There's no need to bring a power pack on the go when starting a day of constant emailing.
Say what you will about its slower Snapdragon 625 chipset; it's at least battery efficient. Watching an HD video for 90 minutes at full brightness only took the battery down to 89%, losing a very respectable 11%.
BlackBerry KeyOne is the smartphone for anyone who has ever said 'I miss my old BlackBerry.' It reinvents the tactical QWERTY keyboard phone for the modern Android era. It's for everyone who has felt exiled to on-screen keyboards over last half decade.
Buying in bulk for employees? You'll appreciate the front-and-center DTEK security app, solid battery life and BlackBerry Hub. There's no excuse for workers to miss your messages now. It's also cheaper than other top phones.
This is not fit for multimedia due to its misshapen 3:2 screen that puts black bars on the top and bottom of 16:9 video and single speaker. This is far from an all-screen phone. It's all for work and not for play.
You won't get the best selfies from the front-facing camera, even though the rear camera is pretty good. Lowlight causes too much blurring and switching between the two camera in the main app is a confusing mess.


The sugarbeet root maggot continues to be the most serious insect pest in sugarbeets. Yield and quality losses can exceed $200 per acre when root maggot controls are not properly implemented.
Although SBRM emergence was unusually late during 2002, historical records suggest that neither population level nor emergence timing should be impacted in 2003. Sugarbeet root maggot populations are expected to be mostly low for southern and central portions of the Red River Valley. Infestations are likely to be relatively low on the Minnesota side of the Red River from Sabin north all the way to the U.S./Canadian border. Occasional areas of moderate pressure could occur in the central and northern areas of the Valley. Moderate to high infestations are anticipated in fields between the Grafton/Hoople vicinity in northeastern Walsh County and the Cavalier/Bathgate area in northern Pembina County of northeastern North Dakota. Due to poor performance of soil and foliar-applied insecticides in 2002 in some northeastern North Dakota fields, intermittent pockets with severe infestations are also likely to develop. Proximity of sugarbeet to previous-year beet fields, especially those where insecticide performance was unsatisfactory, can often increase the risk of damaging population levels. It should be clearly understood that significant fly activity is likely for sugarbeets planted adjacently to previous-year beet fields that had moderate to high fly densities and/or substantial maggot feeding pressure. Environmental conditions within the growing season can affect the precision of this forecast.
Mustang Max has received a 24 © label for use on sugarbeets in Minnesota and North Dakota in March of 2003. These labels are in effect for 5 years or until a full section 3 label is received for Mustang Max.
