Important New Decisions - April 18, 2011
Party Must Prevail on All Issues to Be Awarded Counsel Fee Pursuant to Agreement Provision
In Matter of Bederman v Bederman, --- N.Y.S.2d ----, 2011 WL 749719 (N.Y.A.D. 2 Dept.) the parties' stipulation of settlement which was incorporated but not merged into their judgment of divorce entered September 24, 2004, provided that in the event the parties agreed, or a court determined, that the parties' child should attend private preschool, elementary, or secondary school, the parties would proportionately share any educational expenses. The mother commenced a proceeding seeking reimbursement from the father for private school tuition and to direct the father to pay his proportionate share of religious education expenses. The Appellate Division fount that the record supported the Support Magistrate's findings that the father was not required to pay certain private school tuition payments for previous years which were gifts from the maternal grandmother, and that the father was not required to pay for religious education expenses under the terms of the parties' stipulation of settlement. The Support Magistrate also properly denied the mother's request to direct the father to pay his monthly child support through the Nassau County Support Collection Unit pursuant to Family Court Act 440(2). The stipulation of settlement provided for an alternate arrangement for the payment of child support in the form of direct payment to the mother unless the father defaulted in his child support payments and the record established that the father was not in arrears on his child support obligations. It also held that the mother was not entitled to an award of an attorney's fee, as she did not prevail on all issues (citing D'Amico v. D'Amico, 251 A.D.2d 616).
Court Cannot Issue a QDRO More Expansive or Encompassing Rights Not Provided in Underlying Stipulation
In Coulon v Coulon, --- N.Y.S.2d ----, 2011 WL 924351 (N.Y.A.D. 2 Dept.) the defendant appealed from so much of a Qualified Domestic Relations Order of the Supreme Court as designated the plaintiff as a surviving spouse under the pre-retirement and post-retirement survivor annuity provisions of his pension plan, and directed that she receive a share of such benefits in the event of his death. On the Court's own motion, the appellant's notice of appeal was treated as an application for leave to appeal, and leave to appeal was granted (see CPLR 5701[c] ). The Qualified Domestic Relations Order was reversed on the law and the matter was remitted to the Supreme Court for the entry of an amended Qualified Domestic Relations Order in accordance. The Appellate Division observed that a Qualified Domestic Relations Order entered pursuant to a stipulation of settlement can convey only those rights to which the parties stipulated as a basis for the judgment. Thus, a court cannot issue a QDRO more expansive or encompassing rights not provided in the underlying stipulation. Here, the parties' 1992 stipulation of settlement, which was incorporated but not merged in their judgment of divorce, provided for the plaintiff to receive a share of the defendant's pension in accordance with Majauskas v. Majauskas (61 N.Y.2d 481). However, "pension benefits and death benefits are two distinct matters" ( Kazel v. Kazel, 3 NY3d 331, 334), and a stipulation which is silent as to death benefits cannot be read to include an intent to include such benefits (McCoy v. Feinman, 99 N.Y.2d at 303). Since the parties' stipulation contained no provision entitling the plaintiff to be designated as a surviving spouse under the pre-retirement and post-retirement survivor annuity provisions of the defendant's pension plan and to receive a share of such benefits in the event of his death, it was error for the Supreme Court to include such a provision in the QDRO.
Decision Denying Mothers Request to Relocate with Children Reversed Where Family Court Did Not Give Appropriate Weight to Domestic Violence.
In Matter of Clarke v Boertlein, --- N.Y.S.2d ----, 2011 WL 924280 (N.Y.A.D. 2 Dept.), Family Court awarded the mother custody of the parties' three children, but denied her motion for permission to relocate with the parties' three children to Pennsylvania. The Appellate Divison reversed the order and granted her permission to relocate. The parties were the parents of three children, ages 10, 6, and 4. In August 2008 the mother removed the children from their home in Yaphank, New York, and moved to Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, where one of her sisters resided, allegedly to escape the father's domestic violence. The mother obtained an order of protection and temporary custody from a court in Pennsylvania. In November 2008 the mother reconciled with the father and returned with the children to New York, only to leave with the children again to Pennsylvania in April 2009. The father then commenced this proceeding in the Supreme Court (IDV Part), seeking custody of the children. The mother moved for an award of custody and permission to relocate with the children to Pennsylvania. After a hearing, the Supreme Court awarded the mother custody, but denied her request for permission to relocate with the children to Pennsylvania. The Appellate Divison pointed out that the disposition of a petition for permission to relocate with minor children rests upon a determination of the best interests of the children. Moreover, "[d]espite the multitude of factors that may properly be considered in the context of a relocation petition, the impact of the move on the relationship between the child[ren] and the noncustodial parent will remain a central concern" (Matter of Tropea v. Tropea, 87 N.Y.2d at 739). Upon its review of the record, it found that Supreme Court's determination to deny the mother permission to relocate with the children to Pennsylvania lacked a sound and substantial basis in the record. The record demonstrated that the mother had at all times served as the primary caregiver to the children and had displayed a continued commitment to their needs, whereas the father showed little involvement with the children when the parties lived together. The Supreme Court failed to give enough weight to the mother's allegations of domestic violence, often in the presence of the children, which permeated the parties' relationship and caused the mother to remove herself and the children from the parties' home. While the father denied that there was any domestic violence in the home, the Supreme Court noted that the father exhibited his temper during the course of the hearing when he left the witness stand while yelling at the mother's attorney. The father also admitted that he engaged in harassing and intimidating behavior after the mother left, such as calling the mother's cell phone numerous times each day, questioning the oldest child as to the mother's whereabouts, and placing a tracking device on the mother's car. Contrary to the Supreme Court's finding, the mother's move to Pennsylvania did not appear to have been motivated by bad faith but, rather, was an opportunity to escape domestic violence in the home, to reside in close proximity to supportive family members, and to secure affordable housing. The mother testified as to her unsuccessful attempts to obtain affordable housing on Long Island, and compared those attempts to her ability to secure a suitable rental home in Pennsylvania near where her sister resides with her family and the maternal grandmother. Testimony also revealed that the children were adapting well to their new surroundings, and were living with their half-brother in close proximity to their aunt and maternal grandmother, and that the two oldest children were attending school and receiving educational services. In contrast, the record suggested that the father opposed the relocation in order to harass the mother and in order to keep the mother in close proximity to facilitate his efforts to reconcile with her.
Divorce Based upon Cruelty Affirmed Where Husband Threatened to Kill Wife
In Siu Nam Wong Pun v Che Kwok Pun, --- N.Y.S.2d ----, 2011 WL 1046040 (N.Y.A.D. 1 Dept.) the Appellate Division affirmed an order which granted plaintiff a divorce on the grounds of cruelty. Plaintiff testified that during the marriage, defendant regularly lost his temper and yelled at her, verbally abused and demeaned her, and made disparaging remarks in response to her cancer diagnosis. She further testified that several years before she commenced this action, defendant choked her. In addition, she testified that he frequently yelled at her insisting that the family had to listen to him because he was the master of the household. Plaintiff recounted defendant's threat to kill her if she sought a divorce, and explained that she ultimately moved out because she feared defendant and was concerned for her safety. This testimony, portions of which were corroborated by the testimony of the parties' adult son, was sufficient to support the finding of cruel and inhuman treatment. Although plaintiff periodically returned to the marital residence after she moved out, she credibly explained that she did so to cook and clean the residence for her sons, who resided there. The lower court was not persuaded by defendant's claim that this behavior undermined plaintiff's contention that it was unsafe and improper for her to cohabit with defendant, and the Appellate Division agreed with that determination. Moreover, plaintiff testified that when she did return on occasion, defendant scolded and berated her.
Appellate Division Affirms Order Denying Counsel Fee to Attorney Who Agreed to Accept Litigation Assignment with No Guarantee of Compensation
In Moccia v Moccia, --- N.Y.S.2d ----, 2011 WL 1088033 (N.Y.A.D. 2 Dept.) the defendant wife in this divorce action was unable to afford counsel. The Supreme Court assigned the nonparty-appellant, Eric Ole Thorson (appellant), to represent the wife without compensation from her, "without prejudice to [a] motion by counsel for compensation pursuant to CPLR 1102(d), DRL Section 237, Judiciary Law Section 35 or as otherwise provided by law." The parties engaged in discovery, prepared for trial, and successfully negotiated a settlement agreement. The Supreme Court denied the appellant's motion for an award of an attorney's fee to be paid by the plaintiff husband. The Appellate Division affirmed. It pointed out that a court may award an attorney's fee in a divorce action to a spouse to enable that spouse to carry on or defend the action or proceeding as, in the court's discretion, justice requires, having regard to the circumstances of the case and of the respective parties (Domestic Relations Law s 237[a]). While the husband's income from the Yonkers Parking Authority was greater than the wife's income, his earnings were nevertheless modest and they were expended, in large part, on the wife and their children, as he paid, among other things, the mortgage and home equity loan, plus utilities on the marital home. In this regard, the Supreme Court properly considered the terms of the parties' settlement agreement and statements of net worth, which reflected the husband's income and expenses, limited assets, outstanding mortgage, the absence of savings, and debt to his own counsel, in determining that the parties' financial circumstances were "not that disparate so as to warrant an award of counsel fees." The Appellate Division commended any attorney who, as here, agrees to accept a litigation assignment with no guarantee of compensation, but held that the denial of an award of an attorney's fee in this case was not an improvident exercise of the Supreme Court's discretion. Judges Austin and Belen dissented.
Supreme Court Lacked Jurisdiction to Impose Obligations in the Amended Judgment upon the Nonparty-appellant Insurance Company
In Flangos v Flangos, --- N.Y.S.2d ----, 2011 WL 1088123 (N.Y.A.D. 2 Dept.) the Appellate Division held that Supreme Court lacked jurisdiction to impose obligations in the amended judgment upon the nonparty-appellant insurance company. A court has no power to grant relief against an entity not named as a party and not properly summoned before the court (Riverside Capital Advisors, Inc. v. First Secured Capital Corp., 28 AD3d 457, 460). Accordingly, the Supreme Court should have granted that branch of the nonparty-appellant's motion which was to vacate so much of the amended judgment as directed it to make certain payments. Similarly, the Supreme Court erred to the extent that it, sua sponte, in effect, amended a provision in the amended judgment directing the nonparty-appellant to give notice of stated proposed changes in the payments. Contrary to the plaintiff's contention, the amended judgment itself was not a proper income execution order under CPLR 5241, nor is it a proper income deduction order under CPLR 5242.
Supreme Court Erred in Directing Husband to Transfer to Wife Title to Property Owned by a Corporation over Which the Supreme Court Lacked Jurisdiction.
In Manning v Manning, --- N.Y.S.2d ----, 2011 WL 1088041 (N.Y.A.D. 2 Dept.) the Appellate Divison observed that in order to sustain a finding of civil contempt under Judiciary Law 753 based on a violation of a court order, it is necessary to establish by clear and convincing evidence that a lawful court order clearly expressing an unequivocal mandate was in effect, that the person alleged to have violated the order had actual knowledge of its terms, and that the violation has defeated, impaired, impeded, or prejudiced the rights of a party . Here, the evidence was sufficient to establish that the defendant knowingly disobeyed the Supreme Court's order directing him to pay an expert to ascertain the value of his business and also failed to comply with the pendente lite support order. Consequently, the Supreme Court properly adjudicated the defendant in contempt of court. It noted that a court is not required to rely upon a party's account of his or her finances in determining that party's income. It agreed with the defendant that the Supreme Court erred in directing him to transfer title to certain commercial real property to the plaintiff. The commercial property at issue was owned by a corporation over which the Supreme Court lacked jurisdiction.

Q: Bq Aquaris M10 Ubuntu Edition: desktop mode question I'm so interested in buying the Aquaris M10 Ubuntu Edition! Ubuntu on desktop rules, I'm using it since 2008 :-) I'm actually a light computer user and I do 99% of my daily tasks in the cloud (using tools like OneDrive.com, Word Online via OneDrive, Transifex.com, etc.) So I'm looking to make this tablet both my tablet and laptop.
But I need to know one thing: as I also want to make this my laptop, will the desktop mode on screen (desktop mode on the tablet itself, as demoed at MWC 2016 using bluetooth kb/mouse) be available when the tablet goes on sale? 'Cause I really want desktop mode when needed on the tablet itself rather than hooking it up to a big screen.

A: Yes, You will be able to switch to windowed mode, even when not connected to an external display (a switch will be available in the quick access top-menu). And yes, it has been confirmed that this will be available on the Aquaris M10 when it is released.

A: I can confirm that on the M10 (I'm writing using it) there's a switch to enable Desktop mode even without any connected keyboard or mouse.

A: Yes, switching to desktop mode is possible and easy. However, installing Ubuntu Desktop Applications is not not easy. Gimp, Firefox and Libre Office are per-installed. Installing additional applications is more complicated. Firstly you need the application for the ARM CPU platform. Regular applications for Intel or AMD CPUs will not run on the tablet. Therefore I am not aware of any possibility to install Google Chrome - which would allow to watch Netflix. Also installing Thunderbird (standard in Ubuntu for Desktop) is not that easy and on a fingertip.
Don't get me wrong, I love my Ubuntu Touch on the Aquaris M10 - but I am limited in the things I am doing. I am eager to see more functions becoming available, even so it will take some time. What I am missing most these days is not being able to stream Netflix or Amazon Prime.

Precious Cargo – Where Are They Now?
It's difficult to hear Bruce Willis' name without thinking: Die Hard; or picture Mark Paul Gosselaar as anything but 90's sitcom heartthrob Zack Morris from Saved by the Bell. Similarly, Claire Forlani will always have a place in our hearts as Dr. Susan Parish from Meet Joe Black. However, in the action-packed thriller Precious Cargo, these talented actors come together and in roles so compelling and different, we can almost forget those career defining roles of the past.
Arriving in cinemas and on demand from July 15th, 2016, Precious Cargo opens on a murderous crime boss, Eddie (Willis) in search of Karen (Forlani), the seductive thief who failed him in a botched heist.
In order to win back Eddie's trust, Karen recruits her ex-lover and premier thief Jack (Gosselaar) to steal a cargo of rare precious gems. But when the job goes down, allegiances are betrayed and lines are crossed as Jack, Karen, and Eddie face off in a fateful showdown.
In celebration of three actors so well remembered for their breakout roles, here's a look back at those, and the other significant work in their respective careers leading up to the release of Precious Cargo.
Though first introduced to the world on the small screen as a comedic actor on the television series, Moonlighting, opposite Cybill Shepherd, it was Bruce Willis' appearance in the 1988 film Die Hard that solidified his place in Hollywood as the go-to action film star of the 90's. What followed were two more instalments of the Die Hard series including Die Hard 2, and Die Hard with a Vengeance. These films, along with his portrayal of Butch Coolidge in Quentin Tarantino's award winning film Pulp Fiction, and starring roles in blockbusters like Armageddon and M. Knight Shyamalan's The Sixth Sense have continued to keep Willis on the list of most coveted starring vehicles in Hollywood over the years. Though traditionally playing the "good guy," with equal knack for comedy, as he has for action, in Precious Cargo, Willis shows his impressive range by easily shifting into the complicated role of a deranged villain. Despite the dramatic nature of the film, the now 61 year old Hollywood vet still adds a bit of signature charm and humour to the complex character in a way that only Bruce Willis can.
English born actress Claire Forlani first got her start in Hollywood in the American TV mini-series JFK: Reckless Youth as Ann Cannon, old college girlfriend to the president. From there, the young beauty scored a role in the 1995 popular Rom-Com, Mallrats. One year later, Forlani was cast in the 1996 action film, The Rock working alongside Hollywood heavyweights such as Michael Bay, Jerry Bruckheimer, Sean Connery, and Nicholas Cage. 1998 brought Forlani her breakout role in Meet Joe Black as Dr. Susan Parish, love interest to international heartthrob Brad Pitt. Following the success of Meet Joe Black, Forlani returned to the small screen for stints on both CSI: New York, and CSI: Los Angeles. Forlani's wide range of roles in all categories of film and television over the years demonstrates her flexibility to tackle any role. In Precious Cargo, it's a delight to see Forlani portray a slighter darker role than she's taken on in some time.
Mark Paul- Gosselaar
Bleach Blonde hair, pastel t-shirts with acid-washed jeans, a mischievous yet winning grin, and a giant portable phone glued to his ear, the image of Zack Morris is permanently etched in all our brains as an iconic memory of 90s sitcom television. However, Mark Paul- Gosselaar's career actually started long before he was cast as the star of Saved by the Bell at age 15. The young California native grew up in showbiz; beginning as a child model at 5, Gosselaar guest starred in numerous popular sitcoms including The Wonder Years, Punky Brewster, and The Twilight Zone to name but a few. Saved by the Bell ran for 4 seasons, but Gosselaar continued to reprise the role of Zack Morris well beyond the series' end in several different spin off series throughout the 90's. Gosselaar has since worked on several television hits throughout his career including Hyperion Bay, NYPD Blue, Franklin & Bash, and CSI. Gosselaar has also worked on a number of films over the years including 1998 drama Dead Man on Campus, and most recently, the 2015 crime thriller Heist working alongside Robert De Niro, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and Kate Bosworth. In Precious Cargo, Gosselaar shows us he's come a long way since his days as suave trouble maker Zack Morris. However, despite admiring his notably heftier acting chops, we can't help but admit that winning grin of his is still his Gosselaar's secret weapon.
PRECIOUS CARGO is in cinemas and on demand from July 15th

(Brussels, Belgium) – – – Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes, the global clinical practice guideline organization in kidney disease, has formalized its collaboration with over 800 nephrologists around the world. The group will be called "The KDIGO Global Network" and will serve as a direct link between the organization and clinicians in nearly every country.
The Network includes thought leaders in nephrology and related fields who have served on KDIGO work groups and steering committees, provided governance, reviewed guidelines and conference reports, attended Controversies Conferences and presented KDIGO recommendations to their colleagues. The number of Network members has increased over the past year as will continue to grow as more work groups are formed and more conferences are held.
Network members will provide feedback and advice to KDIGO on how to make its recommendations more useable in their countries. They will work to make KDIGO information a part of local congresses and periodically survey colleagues about their use of KDIGO and ways to improve its effectiveness. Speakers' kits, recommendation summaries and updates, educational tools and an electronic response system will be provided to all members of the Network.
This Network is part of KDIGO's commitment to implementation. The organization has always committed itself to implementation rather than simple dissemination of its work. KDIGO translates cutting edge global science into clinical practice recommendations. The Network will facilitate their utility in varying local circumstances globally. It replaces the former KDIGO Implementation Task Force.

Matterport Releases Inaugural ESG Report: Digital Twins are Paving the Way for a More Sustainable Future
New Report Demonstrates Digital Twins are a Powerful Tool for Avoiding Carbon Emissions
Matterport Inc
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Jan. 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Matterport, Inc. (Nasdaq: MTTR) today released the company's first Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) report that assesses the impact of Matterport's products and programs toward driving sustainable and equitable outcomes. The report, based on 2021 data, provides a benchmark to establish company-wide ESG goals and commitments.
The topline environmental findings confirm Matterport's digital twins are highly effective at helping customers achieve sustainability goals. Matterport's revolutionary technology allows for the creation of high-precision, immersive 3D digital twins of millions of buildings and other real-world locations, enabling people globally to work smarter and more sustainably by reducing the need for business travel and easing the strain on the environment. The company commissioned independent carbon accounting experts, Minimum, to calculate the emissions reduction potential of using Matterport's digital twin platform. The findings were compelling, revealing a significant reduction in emissions through the use of Matterport's digital twin technology:
In 2021, Matterport's solution helped customers prevent an estimated 374,312 tonnes of CO2e (tCO2e) from being released into the atmosphere globally through reduced business travel - equivalent to the emissions of over 80,000 passenger cars driven for one year*.
A Matterport digital twin can reduce emissions by an average of 0.15 tCO2e over its lifetime - equivalent to not driving a car for 444 miles**.
Utilizing digital twins for remote facilities management results in greater emissions prevention than in most other applications.
"Matterport's first ESG report is a strong statement of our company's values and commitment to providing inclusive and equitable access to any building or location in the world," said RJ Pittman, Matterport's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "The ability of our digital twins to help customers decrease their carbon footprint is truly inspiring. Although there is still more to be done, the information presented in this report represents a promising indication that our platform can assist businesses in achieving their sustainability objectives while also cutting costs, particularly in these challenging economic times."
Matterport's own carbon emissions in 2021 totaled 14,097 tCO2e, with the bulk of the company's carbon footprint (98%) embedded in its supply chain. The company has begun to favor suppliers that collect and disclose their emissions data and recently partnered with third parties globally to manufacture the Pro3 Camera, eliminating much of the trans-Pacific transportation required from the previous supplier's network. The company expects the work with these new partners will have the effect of reducing an estimated 5% of Matterport's greenhouse gas emissions as compared to 2021, and significantly shorten the distances required for the company's products to reach Asian and European customers.
Additional report highlights include:
Property Intelligence leverages Matterport's AI technology to turn digital twins into valuable insights, providing a scalable and efficient alternative to traditional manual property evaluations and on-site assessments that businesses currently rely on. This capability, expected to become available in 2023, should help support customers' own ESG efforts by leveraging the millions of property data points embedded in their Matterport digital twins. Data such as room dimensions, ceiling height, window dimensions and orientation - could enable customers to measure thermal load and reduce energy consumption.
Matterport's learning and development program encourages employees to become the CEOs of their own careers, to be inclusive, and to help the customer win. The Matterport Leadership Academy coaches the leaders of tomorrow and includes a week-long Matterport Bootcamp for sales staff, teaching the company's customer-centered approach to selling.
Matterport has grown steadily and expanded globally over the past 11 years. The company is dedicated to both promoting diversity and developing existing talent, which is why Matterport launched EMERGE (Elevating Matterpeeps' Empowerment, Retention, Growth, and Excellence). Participants learn from internal and external leaders in programs focused on mentorship, choosing the right allies, elevating executive presence, and demonstrating achievements effectively. To measure the program's progress, Matterport has developed a diversity and inclusion dashboard to track training and promotions, ensuring a fair and equitable workplace.

Once a Faro, always a Faro
By VIRGINIA STILL
A car club, fraternity, or just a group of guys who wanted to hang out, whatever way you want to remember them, they will always be known as Faros. Cruising, dragging, looking for girls, beer, parties, community activities all were part of the experience of being a Faro back in the day.
Although the "American Graffiti" movie gave the club some fame and was based on the actual Faros club in Modesto, the name of the club in the movie was Pharaohs. They were depicted as bad boys in the movie and some members believe the movie to be spot on with a few others not so much.
Some of the remaining club members shared their thoughts and memories with 209 Magazine.
Club member Joe Wylie said that there were two beginnings of the Faros. In 1957, Modesto High School students John Husband, Chuck Billington and a few others discussed the idea of a car club, creating the name Faros, the FRS crest and membership cards. Lasting about two weeks, the Dean of Boys at the school heard about this plan and nullified it with the warning that if they continued they would be expelled.
Three years later in August 1960, seven guys collaborated on Edgebrook Drive in Modesto to make the original idea of the Faros a reality. The seven guys were: Wylie, Dennis Billington, Harry James, Larry Baker, brothers Chris and Wayne Ludvickson, and Ron Goncalves. Billington informed the group that he had the 1957 membership cards with the name Faros on them so they decided to stay with that name and save a few bucks. They had weekly meetings with about 20 to 25 guys in attendance in the early days.
The club grew quickly with members added like Darrell Bailey, Daryl Weitl, Larry Landis, Larry Williams, Al Schaeffer, Harold Bowen, Jerry Jackman, Don Podesto, John VanNostrand, Jay Salter, Don Bradley, Rick Hudson, Adolf Mauksch, Steve Roberts, Johnny Mercer, Ron Pippin, Steve Martin, Bill Fliflet, and Bruce Schafer.
To become a Faro, members had to vote you in and they had to go through an initiation that varied over the years.
"Several early members soon went off to honor our country in Vietnam, some went away to college, and others married and started families," said Wylie. "Membership required a 100 percent vote and on occasion, someone was not allowed membership by just one 'no' vote of a current Faro."
"In 1961 we had 'FAROS MODESTO' car plaques made and that started our transition from a fraternity to a car club," added Bailey. "Most of us had cars and we didn't do anything different but the plaques gave us a lot of notoriety."
"Cruising was a fun evening activity enjoyed by many when gasoline was less than 50 cents a gallon," said Weitl. "We were just a bunch of teenagers who hung out together and did typical teen things."
Joining the Faros in the late '60s, Jackman was blackballed during his first attempt to join the club.
"I was fascinated with the evolving engines and transmissions of the new cars and loved hot rods," said Jackman. "I read all the car magazines each month as they arrived at our family grocery store, Paradise Market. However, my folks discouraged my felt need for speed by buying a 40 horsepower 1960 VW beetle for me to drive to MJC. It had four on the floor so I perfected the speed shift. I have actually never owned a custom car, other than the 1962 Austin Healey which I've owned since 1969. It is my garage queen."
Jackman provided a rebuilt Chrysler hemi engine for the club's project car that never got completed. He was club president in 1963 and he did not know George Lucas but he had an economics class with him at MJC in 1963.
Mercer joined the group in 1965 and was a president for part of a term in '65 and a full term in '66. He had a street rod at age 15 and a 40 Ford Delux coupe since 1976.
"Got about 10 of my best car friends into the club," said Mercer. "We are the muscle car generation. We drove 'em new."
Bradley joined in 1967 and had a 1968 Oldsmobile 442 black and red stripe car.
Roberts joined the group in 1964 and drove a '57 Chevy down 10th and 11th streets in Modesto and later down McHenry Avenue.
Bowen joined the Faros during the summer of 1960 and then joined the Marine Corps a few years later. Hudson joined the Faros while he was attending MJC in '68-'69 with a 67 Mustang Fastback.
Mauksch was an active member in 1962 and then went off to serve in the military in 1965. He drove a '61 Impala back in the '60s and currently has a 1940 Chevy street rod. Mauksch shared that Gary Second, who passed a few months ago, was a classmate and good friend to George Lucas at Downey High.
"In fact when George was in Modesto to be Grand Marshal of our Graffiti Parade, he came down from the podium when he saw Gary in the crowd and gave him a big hug," said Mauksch. "That was a very big moment for Gary and it made the rest of the Faros proud and, I think, a little in awe of Gary. My wife, Diana and I rode in the parade with Gary that year, in his beautiful '57 Chevy, and he glowed so much the rest of the evening, I kept asking if his dome light was on. We enjoyed as he reminisced and we were happy for him. As I said, he will be very much missed."
"Gary is probably the reason that George Lucas put the Faros in the movie, even though he changed the spelling," said Bailey. "He was a special guy and we will dearly miss him."
Schafer enlisted in the United States Air Force in 1968 and was stationed in Turkey, Texas and DaNang, Vietnam.
Bailey was the president from 1961 to 1962 and recalls dragging and racing similar to what is depicted in the movie as well as downtown Modesto being the social center of the Valley for teenagers in the '60s.
"My initiation took place on a cold, foggy, damp winter night," said Martin. "Everyone knows how friggin' cold the foggy winter nights can be in Motown. That said, a few of us initiates jumped into the back of a pickup truck and were driven from the Faros meeting place to Del Rio. We sneaked onto the golf course and found one of the waterholes. Stripped down to our skivvies and dived for golf balls. Once we found one, we navigated back to the truck, jumped in and headed back … soaking wet. Even as cold as it was, it was a fun night."
"When I was initiated, I had to swim for golf balls at nighttime and had a mud bath in Dry Creek," said Schafer. "Cruising and racing from light to light on 10th and 11th streets was great fun. I can remember going to Delta Blood Bank on a Friday afternoon to give blood. At that time they paid $5 per pint. That was enough to almost fill my '57 Chevy to cruise the weekend."
"They (initiations) were quite funny but tame for the most part," added Pippin. "Modesto was a small town even back in the early '70s; chances are if you got pulled over the officer knew your parents. If you got caught with beer in the car at times the officer would follow you home and let your parents know. When this happened you knew you were not cruising for at least a couple of weeks."
Fliflet was president from 1969 to 1970 and drove a 1955 Chevy two door wagon. He participated in the Poker Run in 1968 as well as annual hayrides and remembers cruising on 10th and 11th streets and later on McHenry Avenue.
Remembering the McHenry cruise, Pippin explained that they would cruise from Five Points to the McHenry Village and at times "stack'm up" which meant having two cars in both lanes cruising about five miles per hour stacking up traffic for blocks.
"Funny thing is everybody loved it for the most part," added Pippin. "You could visit with the car next to you while cruising. Our place to race was the east side mosquito abatement runway. We would position a car at Parker Road and one at Milnes Road; if the sheriff came they would flash their lights and we would scatter."
The group would help people in the community whether it was to assist someone that was out of gas, stranded, or had a dead battery and they would hand out a card that stated, "You have been assisted by a member of the Faros Car Club." They would also collect food for charity.
They hosted a seat belt installation at John Lenz Union 76 Gas Station according to Wylie where they installed seat belts in many cars since only the late model vehicles had seat belts in them already.
At a 50-year reunion a few of the club members reunited and talked about reviving the club. Weitl, Billington, Schaeffer, Jackman, James and Bailey met up a few months later in Tahoe for a weekend and decided to get the Faros back together. They came up with a list of club members and started adding in more names as time went along.
According to Bailey, in early 2012 they wanted to be a part of the American Graffiti parade which eventually led organizers to them. That year they were the lead in the parade and have been every year since.
The Faros Car Club was inducted into the Cruising Walk of Fame in June 2016. They were given a framed certificate and a plaque with their name that was placed in the sidewalk on 10th Street between J and K streets in Modesto, which was very close to where the guys hung out back in their prime.
"The inclusion into the Cruising Walk of Fame was a definite highlight to Faros membership," added Wylie. "There were many 'car clubs' in the 1950 to 1980 time period and the Faros were the recipient of just plain "good luck" that George Lucas picked them for his famous movie. The presentation ceremony was amazing and I will never forget it."
"We were all very proud to be honored along with the most famous car people of all time in the area," added Schafer.
He also explained that there are still 15 club members in the local area that have show cars and through the years several members attend car shows and the graffiti celebration as a group.
"My Faros plaque was always displayed inside my locker on the top shelf," said Schafer. "I now display the plaque in my GTO."
Currently there are 157 members on the Faros roster and 28 members have passed away. There have been no new members since 1973 when the club disbanded with about 155 members. Approximately five years ago some of the members began to get together for lunch and since then several members, about 18 to 24, meet once a month for lunch.
"I will cruise and be a Faro all my life," said Mercer. "I love every Faro. Past and present."
"We were close, and for me, the Faros were my brothers," expressed Martin. "The love for those in the club remains to this day."
"It is a great honor to be part of a group of guys that hold dear the legacy of the Faros," said Pippin. "We are called upon by the chamber [Modesto Chamber of Commerce] to show up with our cars at multiple events in and around Modesto each year. Modesto is home to some really historic car clubs, the Faros being one of the more recognizable, mostly because of the American Graffiti movie, that being said it has brought notoriety to the Faros and the car culture in the Valley."
"Whether it remains a 'Last Man Standing' Club, or we can develop a way for its perpetuity, I hope we can keep the spirit alive," said Hudson.
"At this time we are not a formal club; we are just a group of guys who were in the Faros back in the '60s," expressed Bailey. "We like to say 'once a Faro, always a Faro'."


At the end of June, Lockheed Martin's Sikorsky helicopter division signed a massive $3.8 billion Department of Defense contract for 257 UH-60 Black Hawk utility copters, destined for the U.S. Army and certain foreign military customers over the next five years.
The contract, which included both the classic Black Hawk and its HH-60M MEDEVAC variant, includes opportunities for the Army to pick up an extra 103 aircraft, according to the Hartford Courant, a clause that would push the value of the deal as high as $5.2 billion through 2022.
The problem? The Army's having some serious difficulty actually flying these iconic choppers.
Days before Lockheed Martin announced the new contract, a Pentagon inspector general audit revealed that the Army "did not provide adequate funding and training for H-60 pilots on the new equipment." And if this problem goes unaddressed, the branch may face a shortage of up to 160 trained H-60 pilots by 2026.
Sadly, the Army has nobody to blame but itself for this problem. According to the DoD IG report, the shortfall in funding and training occurred "because Army officials did not agree which Army organization was responsible for funding and conducting H-60 new equipment training" — the various branch offices literally just passed the buck to one another. To correct the issue, the branch will require nearly $153 million more than currently budgeted for both training and new equipment for 1,390 Black Hawk pilots through 2035.
But training isn't the only problem. The audit found that Army Aviation and Missile Command "did not effectively manage airframe condition evaluations for the UH-60 fleet," with nearly 25% (460 out of 2,098) of the branch's Black Hawk helicopters foregoing safety inspections and other mandatory evaluations between March 2016 and February 2017.
The Army wanted to have a fully modernized and upgraded fleet of 2,135 Black Hawks by 2035, according to the audit, but how the branch plans on squaring its new five-year billion-dollar contract with Sikorsky and its imminent pilot shortfall is unclear. Army officials did not immediately return requests for comment from Task & Purpose.

ISIS Claims Responsibility for Deadly London Bridge Rampage
Posted By The Media Line Staff On December 1st 2019 @ 10:34 am In News Updates
Islamic State says that Usman Khan, a 28-year-old British man who on Friday stabbed two people to death and wounded three more in London before being killed by police, was an ISIS member doing the group's bidding. Khan, wearing what turned out to be a fake suicide vest, had ostensibly gone to a conference of paroled prisoners at a hall near London Bridge when he began a rampage that ended on the bridge itself, where he was overpowered by private citizens before being shot by police officers. He served time after being convicted in 2012 in connection with a plot to blow up London's stock exchange and other targets. The ISIS claim, made Saturday through its Amaq news agency, noted that the Islamist group's adherents were being called on to strike out at countries that had helped remove it from territory it held until earlier this year as part of a "caliphate" in Syria and Iraq. On October 29, ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi killed himself and at least one of his children during a US Special Forces raid on his hideout in northwestern Syria.

In a tour de force described in a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Stanford scientists have figured out a way to convert common brewer's yeast into an efficient factory for making a non-narcotic cough medicine that occurs naturally only in opium poppies.
Many tons of noscapine are extracted annually from the plant, which takes a full year to mature. While noscapine itself is harmless, the poppies' illicit potential requires costly controls and restrictive regulations. The plants can be legally grown only in a concentrated geographical area. Half of all poppies produced for noscapine are in Australia, and the rest are mostly in India, France, Turkey and Hungary, making global noscapine output subject to local environmental events and to varying soil and nutrient conditions. In addition, naturally occurring noscapine must be thoroughly separated from numerous molecular companions, narcotic and otherwise, that don't occur in yeast.
The yeast Smolke's group bioengineered can spew out substantial amounts of noscapine in three or four days -- whatever the weather, which means it could get much easier to produce the drug. And the noscapine doesn't have to be laboriously separated from a gummy clump of unwanted (and potentially addictive) narcotic substances.
"Traditionally, we've gotten our medicines from the natural world, mainly from plants," Smolke told me when I interviewed her about the study. "But the plants' molecular assembly lines have evolved to optimize the plants' survival, not to churn out buckets of one substance we humans want to get our hands on. Plus, we're putting them into our yeast strain, which is foreign turf. A yeast cell and a poppy cell have a lot in common, but in some respects they're as different as Earth and Mars."
The happy outcome: an 18,000-fold improvement in noscapine output compared with what could be obtained by just inserting the foreign genes into yeast.
An additional hundredfold improvement will be necessary for commercial viability. But much of that might be achieved simply by substituting large-scale bioreactors for simple laboratory flasks, Smolke said.


In the 1980s, the first digital chips were used to produce delay pedals. The advantage was, that these racks and pedals were able to offer a longer delay time than the analog delays of those days and, at the same time, produced less hiss.
Although many musicians accredited a lack of character to this kind of new technology, the digital delays caught on and are still famous for certain styles of music.
Currently, analog delays also are equipped with extended delay time and digital control, though they catch up regarding the aspect of functionality.
One of the first digital delays was the Boss DD-2, based on a chip from the Roland Rack delay. This chip is as large as the whole width of the circuit board.
A fact, that only few know: the first digital delays that were said to provide a digital and therefore sterile sound, were built up analog.
The DD-2 as well as the famous TC 2290 only used the digital technology to create the repeats. The remaining signal and the filter stayed analog anyway.
But the digital chip made the delay signal much clearer. For percussive repeats, this sound is essential – blurred repeats and short slapbacks sound much better with an analog delay.
Today, there are numerous simple constructed digital delays that have been designed to sound like analog delays. These pedals are mostly based on a PT2399. Basically, these pedals are built up like an analog pedal which uses a digital chip instead of a BBD.
Because the pretty similar filtering of the repeats, the Boss DD-2 gets pretty close to the sound of an analog delay.
The DD-2 and the early DD-3 delay pedals are very nice sounding though they are frequently used as the basis for modifications.
Other digital delays are built up completely digital. One of the first was the DD-5. It was my first delay pedal as well and prevails a very percussive sound.
In contrast to its successors, the signal stays digital all the time, without any analog filtering.
The current digital delays are mostly modelling effects. Amongst them Strymon, Eventide, Empress and Source Audio delays. Their digital algorithms allow these delay pedals to emulate almost every delay (depending on the effort capacity of programming sometimes better or worse). Thereby, it is possible to emulate and create analog, tape and digital delays in a very confined space.
Some of these pedals prevail an analog dry through. To be honest, this only means that the dry signal will be added to the digital delay – in the end stays the delay digital anyway.
Even though pedals, that also digitalize the original signal have a (extremely short) latency, they provide various options to tune the sound. Thus, they are able to emulate the preamp of a Tube Tape Echo, for example.
There is no good or bad. There will be an adequate delay for every style of music, every personal preference and every rig. It does not always have to be an analog delay.

Lil Wayne walked off stage and appeared to quit the Blink-182 tour.
The 36-year-old rapper has been on the road in the US with the 'All The Small Things' pop-punk legends and support band Neck Deep, but he seemed to call it a day when he halted his set in Bristow, Va., after playing just four songs on Thursday.
He told the crowd: "I just want the people to know if you were wondering, please forgive me but I am so not used to performing to a crowd and there's not too many... that's not my swag.
"I'm not sure how long I'm gonna be able to do this tour, but make some noise for Blink-182 for including me anyway. This might be my last night though."
The show was the ninth of the genre crossing tour, which is set to run across the States until September.
None of the acts have publicly commented on Lil Wayne's actions, with the next date set for Bangor, Maine on Saturday. The tour is scheduled to play Virginia Beach on Saturday, July 20.
Meanwhile, Blink-182 - made up of Mark Hoppus, Travis Barker and Alkaline Trio's Matt Skiba - are set to release a new album this summer.
The 'What's My Age Again?' rockers have been working hard on the follow up to 2016's 'California', and the group's bassist and singer Mark recently revealed there is an official announcement "forthcoming".
He previously said: "There is not an exact date. It is coming out this summer. I was just on the phone earlier today with Ron Perry, who's the head of our label, and we are figuring out the exact launch date.
"But we are finalizing mixes right now, we have about half the album mastered, and the announce on when the album will be released will be forthcoming."

Q: Python -> Sorting List based on dependencies between elements I have a list of values as follows:
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]

Next, I also have a dict of dependencies of the following format:
{1 : [2,3], 3: [4], 6: [7,8,9]}

This means that 2,3 must appear in the list before 1, 4 must appear in the list before 3, and 7,8,9 must all appear in the list before 6.
Therefore, a valid sorting would be:
[4,2,3,1,7,8,9,6]

Based on this example I have written code which is able to split the list into three subsets:

*

*items which appear only on RHS (these should all be on top of the list) -> 7,8,9,4,2

*items which appear only on LHS (these can be placed on the bottom of the list) -> 1,6

*Items which appear both on the RHS and LHS ->3
I'm struggling with writing code to sort items which fall into the third category:
What would be a good way of sorting these items?
EDIT:
supersetR = set({})
supersetL = set({})
for dependency in dependencies:
    supersetR = supersetR.union(dependencies[dependency])
    supersetL.add(dependency)

onlyL = supersetL - supersetR
onlyR = supersetR - supersetL
LandR = supersetL.intersection(supersetR)

A: Your dict is actually a directed graph. What you want to get is called topological sorting. Python has an amazing library for graph processing - networkx - in which your problem can be solved with a pair of lines:
G = nx.DiGraph({1 : [2,3], 3: [4], 6: [7,8,9]})
list(reversed(list(nx.topological_sort(G))))

[2, 4, 3, 1, 8, 9, 7, 6]

P.S. Note that your problem can be solved only with DAG cases, without any cycles. You can't order your list properly in the case of it. Just imagine a graph 1->2->3->1. Whatever you will write to a list:
[1,2,3]
[2,3,1]
[3,1,2]

The first and the last nodes will be incorrect because in any case they have one node before it and one node after. You can check if your graph is a DAG with this function:
nx.is_directed_acyclic_graph(G)

A: You can use the networkx library that implements topological sorting. But your problem seems to be the inverse of a topological sorting, so the code would look something like that :
import networkx
dict_sort = {1 : [2,3], 3: [4], 6: [7,8,9]}

graph = networkx.DiGraph(dict_sort)
list(reversed(list(networkx.topological_sort(graph))))

Output :
[2, 4, 3, 1, 7, 8, 9, 6]

A: This Rosetta Code example of topological sorting handles the case when dependencies may give multiple orderings that fit, by showing items whose sub-orderings still fit the dependencies.
For example: If 2 and 3 must appear before 1 and the items are 1, 2, 3, and 4 then the order of 2 with respect to 3 and 4 with respect to 1, 2, and 3 is variable.
The code also detects cycles, and has example runs.

A: Is this sorting? Or just walking a graph?
tree = {1 : [2,3], 3: [4], 6: [7,8,9]}

# basic depth-first search of a graph
def dfs(tree, value, depth=0):
    if value in tree:
        for v in tree[value]:
            dfs(tree, v, depth+1)
    print(value, end=' ')

# find roots - nodes not listed as subs of any other node
roots = [v for v in tree if not any(v in vv for vv in tree.values())]

for r in roots:
    dfs(tree, r)

Gives:
2 4 3 1 7 8 9 6

Which appears to satisfy all of your constraints.

Black Star Riders release lyric video for new song "When The Night Comes In"
Black Star Riders are back with a new single entitled "When The Night Comes In" from their third upcoming studio album Heavy Fire, which will be released in February 2017.
The following message was posted on Black Star Riders' Facebook page earlier yesterday (with slight edits):
"Nuclear Blast are pleased to announce the release of Black Star Riders third studio album, "Heavy Fire", in February 2017. The band will support the album with a full UK and Eire tour in March 2017.
The band previous album, "The Killer Instinct", was released in 2015 to widespread critical acclaim and went on to score multiple radio playlists. A solid year of worldwide touring culminated in December 2015 in an UK arena tour alongside Def Leppard and Whitesnake.
2016 saw the band return to the studio with "The Killer Instinct's" producer Nick Raskulinecz (Rush, The Foo Fighters, Mastodon), at his studio just outside Nashville. The resultant album is Black Star Riders most accomplished work to date. From the immediate riffs of album opener "Heavy Fire" to the instant hooks of first single "When The Night Comes In", from the dirty bass groove of "Thinking About You Could Get Me Killed" to the familiar and trademark dual guitars of Gorham and Johnson on "Testify Or Say Goodbye", this is an album that will further cement BSR's reputation as one of the world premiere rock acts.
"Angst, passion, power, glory, love, truth, lies, loyalty, questions that begged to be answered. There's a guitar army coming…and it's bringing the " Heavy Fire"" – Ricky Warwick (vocals), Black Star Riders.
""Not many new bands get to record three albums these days. Without doubt this is BSR's best album so far. We had a great time recording it and can't wait to play the new songs live on tour in March." – Scott Gorham (guitars), Black Star Riders
Following on from their critically acclaimed albums 'All Hell Breaks Loose' and 'The Killer Instinct' which have paved the way for Black Star Riders to be recognized as a power force in the modern day of Rock n' Roll, 'Heavy Fire' will be once again released by Nuclear Blast Entertainment. The band have also brought in Pledgemusic, one of the most innovative and successful platforms of the modern music world, to give fans extra special product and experiences to go along with the album's release.
