Originally released back in 2013, the current Vanquish seems to defy ageing by still looking amazing four years on. The S version was unveiled in 2016 and at the time of writing, is likely to be the last naturally-aspirated V12 Aston Martin ever – which is a crying shame.
Although it is a relative pensioner in terms of technology when compared to modern super GT cars, it is still an Aston Martin, so it offers a premium finish and top-level performance.
But with the battle against high emissions continuing to run on and on, does the Vanquish S Volante make sense anymore, or is it a roaring encore for the V12 era?
As with the initial 2013 Vanquish, the S comes with a 6.0-litre V12 engine paired with an eight-speed transmission – which is a very smooth combination indeed when on the move at normal speeds. The S comes with 27bhp more than the standard version, with 592bhp and 630Nm of torque kicked out through the rear wheels.
With all of that combined – and despite it weighing 100kg more than the Coupe version – the S Volante can go from 0-60mph in 3.5 seconds and on to a top speed of 197mph. It may not be the fastest super GT out there, but it is one of the most theatrical with the raucous V12 a sound to behold when you put your foot down. If you are after a car that excites all the senses, this could be the one for you.
This is definitely set up to be an excellent cruiser and when you get onto wider roads it really shines as a comfortable and capable GT car. With compliant suspension out of sport mode, it really is a good car for a long drive that can be exhilarating when you need it to be.
Switch it into Sport mode and tackle a twisty road, however, and you will find that even though there are nimbler cars out there, the heavyweight can hold its own. As with most Astons, the chassis is beautifully engineered and when it needs to be leant on, the dampers cope well in most situations. Obviously, it can feel harsher on British roads due to the firmer suspension, but for the majority of the time spent in Comfort you will find it is a lovely place to be.
This is where the Vanquish S line-up is let down, as the interior isn't exactly what you would call current. With a rather blocky and small infotainment display, a button-heavy central console and out-dated dials, the Vanquish S has been left behind by more modern premium models – with more adopting cleaner central panels.
But what you do get is hand-stitched leather sports seats, premium customisation options and two rear seats – although they're not adult friendly.
On the test car we had, it came with over £7,000-worth of extras, but some of the standard features include a Bang & Olufsen surround-sound system, carbon-fibre features on the exterior and 20-inch alloy wheels. Despite the £200,000 purchase price, Aston expects people to add plenty of additional equipment when buying one to enhance and personalise their models.
The fabric folding roof blocks out the noise when needed and drops quickly enough so that you can take in your surroundings.
If you're in the market for a Vanquish S Volante, you're going to need deep pockets, as prices start from £211,950. With extras you could be looking well over the £220,000 mark – but if you're able to afford the base model, why wouldn't you spruce it up a bit?
The Volante is classed in the top insurance group and top emissions group, so will be quite expensive to run when you get your hands on it. Fuel stops will be quite frequent if you use it often, as the 21.6mpg figure means it doesn't sip but gulp its petrol down. But if you're able to afford the car itself, the running costs won't be that big a factor.
In no way can we say that the Vanquish S Volante is perfect, as the interior is not up to a modern standard and doesn't quite match 2017 models in terms of a premium finish. However, with that aside, you can see what the Vanquish S is supposed to offer you. An exciting engine, great performance and a composed ride in most situations help to make the Vanquish S Volante a truly enticing option in the super GT market. A fitting swansong for the V12 engine that has served Aston Martin so very well.


 This Whitening cream by Dr. Bilqees is one of the best and most useful creams. It is made by natural ingredients and that is why it is more effective than most creams available in shops.
In a pan, add 1 1/2 cup water and let it boil.
In boiling water add cinnamon sticks, dry lemon or orange peel, rose petals, pomegranate flower, green tea and lemon grass, cook on low flame until 2 tbsp water left.
Then add in aloe Vera gel (lotion) for oily skin or any kind of cream for dry skin.
Apply this cream every morning and every night. It will help with skin whitening and it will also get rid of any marks around your ears and on your face.
Take Vaseline, coconut oil and bees wax in equal quantity.
Cook until it's mixed well and becomes a cream.

Objectives: Heart disease is the leading cause of death in American Indians (AIs). For AI patients with severe coronary artery disease requiring coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, little data exist. The purpose of this study was to evaluate short-term outcomes of Northern Plains AI undergoing CABG and identify variations in patient presentation. Methods: All patients undergoing isolated CABG between June 2012 and June 2017 were studied. Seventy-four AI and 1236 non-American Indian (non-AI) patients were identified. Risk factors, preoperative characteristics, cardiac status, procedural information, and outcomes were collected. Univariate analysis comparing short-term clinical outcomes between AI and non-AI populations was performed. Multivariable logistic regression models were constructed and outcome differences assessed. Unadjusted Kaplan-Meier survival estimates were produced using 5-year survival data. Results: AI patients presented with increased risk factors, including higher rates of diabetes mellitus (AI 63.5% vs. non-AI 38.7% p=< 0.001) and smoking/tobacco use (AI 60.8% vs. non-AI 20.0% p=> 0.001). Seventy-nine percent of AI patients resided on or near federal reservations and presented from rural locations. Internal mammary artery (IMA) graft use in both groups was high (AI 95.9% vs. non-AI 94.9% p=0.904), and multiarterial grafting with left internal mammary artery and radial artery use was common in both groups (AI 67.6% vs. non-AI 69.6% p=0.814). No significant differences in unadjusted 30-day mortality or short-term outcomes were detected. Adjusted Kaplan-Meier survival curves were similar between race groups up through 5 years after CABG (p-value=0.38). Conclusion: AIs presented with significantly more risk factors for cardiovascular disease compared with the general population, with especially high rates of insulin-dependent diabetes and active tobacco use. Despite this, outcomes were similar between groups. In propensity-matched groups, AIs were at decreased risk for prolonged length of stay and combined morbidity/mortality. In contrast to previous reports, AI racial identity did not adversely affect survival up to 5 years after CABG.

Sorry I didn't get there. The weather was shite where I am and my re-painted front mudguard, which was supposed to be ready to pick up on Saturday wasn't :(. Couldn't face the hour and a half ride to the meeting point on wet roads hanging off the side to see around the rooster tail. Next year!!
My apologies for not being able to post sooner, (computer goosed ). Anyway were up and running again. Robs ride was a great success. Miserable ride over to Thirsk from Whitby. On arrival it was great to meet up with everyone. My thanks to Brenda for joining us, Along with everyone who turned up.The Sun came out for a very enjoyable ride organised by Piotr and Andy. Plenty of stops and the return to Thirsk saw a few of us stopping for fish and chips..The donations raised £140 will be added to the £300 raised at our rally last year . This will go to the cancer unit at the friaridge Hospital Northallerton.


Nowhere in Baltimore can two full-time minimum-wage earners afford the median rent for a two-bedroom apartment, according to a new report.
For Baltimore's Project C.O.R.E. urban redevelopment plan, the state of Maryland is offering up hundreds of millions of dollars to seduce investors into developing some of the city's most blighted corridors. The challenge for those developers will be to find ways to ensure that new and renovated housing is affordable for low-wage earners. "Affordable," however, has long-ago become an elusive target, especially in cities like Baltimore where both poverty and housing costs are out of control.
I attempt to highlight what has changed in Baltimore and how the traditional adage that "Baltimore doesn't have a housing affordability problem, it has a poverty problem" is increasingly missing the complexity of the issue. Indeed, focusing only on the city's entrenched poverty masks emergent dynamics within the housing market and defers interventions that could help to mitigate rising housing costs at all levels.
Garboden did the math on what kind of housing would actually be available in Baltimore to a family with one full-time worker making $15.50 an hour. That would put the family right where it needs to be to afford an apartment at the city's median rental rate, which is $774 per month. (Add in utilities, and median gross rent jumps to $944 per month.) But that family would have a tough time finding a two-bedroom at that price. In fact, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has determined that an "affordable" two-bedroom apartment in Baltimore is actually $1,232 per month. Meaning that a family would need at least one full-time earner who makes $24.64 per hour, or $49,000 a year, in order to live comfortably.
And yet, even increasing wages for a family like that would only address half the problem of accessing affordable, quality housing, given that rising rents are far outpacing rising wages.
As shown in the map below from the report, there are a few neighborhoods where a family could get by with a full-time worker making $17 or $18 an hour. But for most neighborhoods, the worker really needs to be making more than $20 an hour to get suitable housing, by HUD's estimates.
"[Th]ere is no area in Baltimore in which two full-time minimum-wage earners could afford the median rent for a two-bedroom apartment," writes Garboden.
A large swath of Baltimore's working population don't make anywhere near those wages. *The median household income in the city is $41,819, according to Census data; per capita income is $25,062. Meanwhile, 23.3 percent of Baltimore residents, and 34.4 percent of the city's families, live in poverty. For a family of four, this means just over $24,000 in annual earnings for the household, according to federal guidelines.
In 1998, families earning more than $40,000 per year could generally and housing they could afford in the city. This is no longer the case. Nearly 30 percent of renter families earning between $40,000 and $75,000 in income are burdened by their housing costs. The biggest jump appears to have been in just the last six years, when the number of cost- burdened middle-income renter households shot from 1,800 to more than 7,500.
More than 56 percent of Baltimore residents are overburdened with rent, meaning that they pay more than 30 percent of their income toward housing costs. A solid one-third of Baltimore workers spend half of their take-home pay on rent. There are only four other cities that have higher percentages of rent-burdened residents: Detroit, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and Memphis.
The irony here is that, under Project C.O.R.E., the city will again look to investors to develop a lot of the land left behind from the demolition of thousands of vacant buildings, and to rehab other properties left standing. The state is kicking in $600 million in funding to help attract investors for this purpose. Done without caution, this could lead to even more homes that low-income and working-class households are priced out of.
To build in affordability, Garboden writes, Baltimore will need considerable help from the federal government in terms of providing tax credits and mortgage subsidies on the supply side, and more assistance from housing vouchers for the demand. Vouchers haven't been a cure-all (though Baltimore seems to be doing a decent job with the voucher program). Some studies have found that vouchers have perpetuated racial and economic segregation. In some places, landlords have hiked rents to account for the increased purchasing power that comes with the housing coupons, or flatly reject them to begin with.
*CORRECTION: This post has been updated to include the median household income and per capita income in Baltimore.

Highlights from conference events will be live tweeted at #TTISICon and posted on the conference website, TTISICon.com. The event is not open to the public.


A detailed and fascinating history of the founding and growth of our church throughout the years.
The original wood church building.
Florida was admitted to the Union in 1845. In 1867, the population of the entire state was approximately 150,000. Orange County had about 1,500 concentrated mainly in the two villages of Mellonville (now Sanford) and Orlando (originally called Jernigan until 1857). Most of the homes and stores in Orlando were located between Lake Eola and Lake Lucerne.
The faith community of St. Luke's originated in the home of Francis Eppes (1801–1881), who was the grandson of Thomas Jefferson and an ardent Episcopal churchman and lay reader.
Francis Eppes moved from Virginia to Tallahassee in 1826 and then to the sparsely settled town of Orlando in 1869. Episcopal settlers in Orlando gathered in his home for services of morning and evening prayer with occasional visits from The Rev. Francis R. Holman of Longwood who held services in the town's Free Church/School building at the intersection of Church Street and Main Street (now Magnolia Ave.). The stained glass window in the narthex of the Cathedral depicting St. Luke honors the memory of Francis Eppes and his contribution to the establishment of the Episcopal Church in Orlando.
Several years later, The Rev. Lyman Phelps made the "long" ride from Sanford in a horse-drawn buggy over sandy roads to hold a monthly service in the town's first court house. The Eppes, Shine, Summerlin, Westcott, and Greetham families formed a faithful group which became the nucleus for the formation of St. Luke's Mission, which formally organized in 1881 and achieved parish status in 1884.
The Rev. C.W. Ward, who resided in Winter Park, served as the church's first rector from 1883 to 1885. The tract of land upon which the Cathedral now stands was purchased for $300 in 1882, and a small frame church was constructed within the year. The first act of the vestry after St. Luke's became a parish was to enlarge the building. It was consecrated on March 18, 1892, by the Bishop of Florida, The Right Rev. Edwin Gardner Weed.
The year 1902 was especially significant in the history of St. Luke's. In that year, it became more than a parish church – St. Luke's became a cathedral. A cathedral is the principal church in a diocese where the bishop has his cathedra (Latin), meaning "chair." This seat symbolizes his authority. Although Southern Florida was to remain a missionary jurisdiction (a precursor to a diocese) for still another 20 years, Bishop Gray still envisioned what he called "The Cathedral System" at St. Luke's. Early in his episcopate, he had chosen Orlando as his "see" city since it was the most thriving and growing one in the central part of his territory, and St. Luke's was the natural choice for a cathedral.

The vestry asked the bishop to pursue the necessary arrangements as quickly as possible. On March 17, 1902, the Charter of the Cathedral Church of St. Luke was signed into law by Judge of the Seventh Judicial Circuit, the Hon. Minor S. Jones of Titusville. The Rev. Lucien A. Spencer was appointed the first Dean of the Cathedral.
Cathedral is a memorial to Bishop Gray. At the General Convention of the Episcopal Church in 1922, the Missionary Jurisdiction of South Florida was admitted as a Diocese—the Diocese of South Florida—and the first Diocesan Convention was held in the Cathedral in January of 1923.

During the episcopate of Cameron Mann, Bishop Gray's successor, came the Great Florida Land Boom which lasted from about 1922 to 1926. The bishop beheld the craze with astonishment and predicted that it could not last. Just before it started, the Cathedral Chapter had decided that a new cathedral building had become a necessity and engaged the architects of Washington National Cathedral to plan the new structure. The plans submitted by Frohmann, Robb and Little of Boston in 1925 for an elaborate Spanish Gothic church were accepted, but the collapse of the boom and the Great Depression that followed left the Chapter with insufficient funds. So, it was decided to build only the nave. The cornerstone was laid on Easter Monday, April 13, 1925, and the nave was dedicated the following year on Easter Eve by Bishop Mann. Although it was only part of what the Cathedral had hoped for, it was still a very beautiful part—the rich, Gothic entrance with its great stone portals, arches, tracery and carvings giving a glimpse of what might have been and was still to be.
The ensuing period after the construction of the new church building presented severe economic hardships. Members of the Cathedral parish made significant sacrifices to keep and maintain the properties they had worked so hard to obtain. The Rev. John Durham Wing was elected and consecrated as Bishop Coadjutor on September 25, 1925. He succeeded Bishop Mann in 1932, and his installation service was held in the Cathedral on May 12.
The Rev. Melville F. Johnson, student pastor at the University of Florida, became the sixth Dean on January 1, 1931, and served for twenty-two years. He led the construction of the L-shaped educational unit, which stands behind the present Chapter House. It is a memorial to members of the Cathedral who died in World War II. Dean Johnson was well-loved by the Cathedral congregation and highly respected in the Orlando community.
The Rev. Osborne R. Littleford became the Cathedral's seventh Dean in 1952. Under his leadership, the present Chapter House was erected and the Cathedral's membership grew steadily. At this time several suburban Episcopal churches were planted, and many Cathedral families transferred to them to help form a foundation for their growth. In 1959, the Rev. Francis Campbell Gray became the eighth Dean and guided the destiny of the Cathedral family for twelve years. During his tenure, communicant strength reached a new high.
The Right Rev. Henry Irving Louttit, who had served as Suffragan Bishop from 1945 to 1948 and as Coadjutor from 1948 to 1950, directed the Diocese of South Florida during its greatest period of growth and expansion. New parishes proliferated. Diocesan communicant strength tripled. As he approached retirement, the wheels were set in motion through Convention to study the possibility of dividing up the expansive Diocese of South Florida into several smaller, more manageable dioceses. This was accomplished in 1970 when the old Diocese of South Florida was divided into three dioceses—Central, Southwest and Southeast Florida.
St. Luke's continued as the Cathedral Church for the Diocese of Central Florida. Bishop Louttit served very briefly as its first Bishop, succeeded by The Right Rev. William H. Folwell who retired in 1990. The Right Rev. John W. Howe followed Bishop Folwell and was the 3rd Bishop of the Diocese of Central Florida. The Right Rev. Gregory O. Brewer was consecrated the 4th Bishop of Central Florida after Bishop Howe retired 2012.
In January, 1971, The Rev. Charles T. Gaskell became the ninth Dean of the Cathedral, serving until his consecration in June, 1973, as Bishop Coadjutor of Milwaukee. Under Dean Gaskell's leadership, the renovation of the Cathedral nave with the erection of the choir gallery over the narthex and installation of the 88-rank pipe organ was achieved.
In September, 1973, The Rev. O'Kelley Whitaker, Rector of Emmanuel Church, Orlando, became the tenth Dean. With Bishop Folwell's encouragement and under Dean Whitaker's leadership, the Cathedral grew as a strong downtown parish, becoming a center for Diocesan functions and an example of excellence in worship, liturgical arts and music. Dean Whitaker resigned after his election as Bishop Coadjutor of the Diocese of Central New York in November, 1980.
Cathedral on September 1, 1981. He served until 1992 and oversaw the "completion" of the Cathedral's Gothic-revival building in the spirit of the original vision from the early 1920s.
On October 18, 1987—the Feast of St. Luke— the "completed" Cathedral was dedicated after two years of construction which resulted in the glorious Gothic-revival structure it is today with a fully formed apse, a new bell tower, flying buttresses, pinnacles and finials, enlarged sacristies, an ambulatory and Chapel of the Resurrection, a redesigned St. Mary's Chapel in the enlarged south transept, and a renewed sanctuary and nave.
The Rev. Dr. G. Richard Lobs III was called from his post as rector of St. Mark's, Geneva, Illinois, to become St. Luke's twelfth Dean in 1993 and served until his retirement in 2006. Dean Lobs brought the Cathedral's worship to new heights of glory and ushered in an enduring era of excellence in preaching and teaching of God's Word.
The Cathedral Church of St. Luke continued to flourish under the leadership of its thirteenth Dean, The Very Rev. Anthony P. Clark, who was installed on December 16th, 2006.
The 14th Dean, The Very Rev. Dr. Reggie Kidd, was installed January 29th, 2017. The Cathedral's worship, teaching and music programs thrive and it continues to reach out to the wider Orlando community with compassion and the hope of the Gospel. Throughout the decades, the Cathedral has remained a sacred space in which the Lord is worshipped in the beauty of holiness and scripture is preached, taught and held as the highest authority.

Brittany Force, Monster Energy Chasing Multiple Wins at U.S. Nationals
Brittany Force and the Monster Energy / Flav-R-Pac Chevrolet dragster team come into the Dodge Power Brokers NHRA U.S. Nationals at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park as the Top Fuel points leaders on the strength of four 2022 wins. Maintaining their position through the holiday weekend would secure them the regular season championship and the top seed as they head into the Countdown to the Championship.
Already with an 94-point lead heading into the four-day event with points and a half on the table, Force and her Monster Energy team look like a sure bet to become the first team other than Steve Torrence to win the regular season championship since 2016. The No. 1 spot entering the Countdown would also put Force in prime position to become just the fourth woman in NHRA pro drag racing history to win multiple championships (after Shirley Muldowney, Erica Enders and Angelle Sampey).
Adding to the excitement of the weekend is the conclusion of the inaugural Pep Boys All-Star Top Fuel Callout which was. Force and her Monster Energy team won their first-round match-up against Antron Brown before the event was rained out at the Gatornationals in Gainesville, Florida earlier this year. Force continues the competition with the privilege of "calling out" the opponent of her choice before the semifinal round on Saturday.
"Heading into the biggest race of the season this weekend In Indianapolis. The U.S. Nationals is such a historic race and prestigious event," Force said. "This race holds so much excitement for the fans as we run two races in one weekend. After qualifying Friday night, which is always awesome to see, we get to really kick things off with the Pep Boys All-Star Call Out where I'll get to call out my opponent heading into the next round. It all takes place Saturday while we're qualifying for the race day on Monday. It's going to be a long weekend and we hope an even longer Monday. This Monster Energy / Flav-R-Pac team made it to the finals of the U.S. Nationals last year and our goal is to go all the way this year and bring home an Indy win."
Although JFR has yet to hoist the Top Fuel trophy at Indy, Force is the track record holder at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park at 3.645 seconds (Aug. 31, 2019) and 334.57 mph (Sept. 3, 2021) and qualified No. 1 in her last two appearances (2019 and 2021). Force will be competing to become the first woman in 40 years to capture the U.S. Nationals victory. In 2021 she came up just short matching her No. 1 start with a runner-up finish to reigning series champion Torrence.
Competition at the prestigious U.S. Nationals kicks off with five rounds of qualifying beginning Friday evening at 7:30 p.m. with two runs Saturday at 2:45 and 6:30 p.m. and Sunday at 1 and 4:30 p.m. Eliminations are set to begin on Monday at 10 a.m. The Pep Boys NHRA All-Star Top Fuel Callout will be Saturday with the semifinals at 2:40 p.m. and finals at 6:25 p.m. Television coverage of qualifying and the Callout will be on FOX Sports 1 (FS1) with shows Sunday at 1, 4 and 5:30 p.m. ET. Eliminations coverage will be split with a show at Noon ET on FS1 and the 2 p.m. ET on FOX Broadcasting Network.


UFC 226 Results – The UFC 226 pay-per-view went down last night and Daniel Cormier stopped Stipe Miocic late in round one to grab the UFC heavyweight title.
The fight was labeled a superfight as Miocic was making the fourth defense of his belt against Cormier, who held the 205 pound title and was moving up in weight. The fight started out with Miocic pressuring Cormier with strikes, though several skirmishes and clinches ended with neither fighter having a definitive advantage. Then late in the round Cormier scored with a short punch that sent Miocic down hard. A few follow-up punches earned the referee's stoppage, and the ref then had to explain to a pissed Miocic that it was over. It was a good stop because it appeared that Miocic was out, but he gathered himself rather quickly and found himself no longer champion.
Cormier now becomes the second fighter after Conor McGregor to hold two UFC title belts in different weight classes at the same time. Cormier is now 21-1 in MMA with an additional no contest, and he is now firmly in the "Greatest of all Time" discussion.
There are two points that come with Cormier's win that bear examining.
After the win, the UFC had Brock Lesnar enter the ring and Cormier was calling the pro wrestler out on mic. The UFC sees Lesnar's return for the end of the year as a big thing, as the former champion has been involved in some of the UFC's biggest PPV events. Cormier wants the payday of course, and Lesnar himself appears to be freeing himself up from his latest WWE run.
Did we forget about Miocic, the pissed former champion who was still in the arena when Lesnar popped up in the octagon? Miocic is a hard working Ohio fireman, but he is also the UFC heavyweight champion with the most successful title defenses. It goes without saying that Miocic is going to want a rematch, and what should not go unnoticed is that he deserves one. Though he was dropped by Cormier, it is not like he was overwhelmed in the fight, he was very much in it until the end.
Lesnar has spent the last few years in WWE on a part time schedule and with a very limited range of in-ring moves. He has become boring in WWE and the fact is that the lockerroom there hate him. The UFC seems gung-ho on doing Cormier vs Lesnar, but are they sure Lesnar at 40 years old is going to be the draw he once was?
The other question here is whether Cormier really belongs in the "GOAT" discussion. The answer to that is a resounding "Yes." Jones is not bigger than the sport, and at 22-1 the records are comparable.
The bottom line with Jon Jones is that through his own shortcomings, he has fought just 3 times since the start of 2015. If he wasn't such a waste of talent, Jones would have remained active and likely it would have been him in Cormier's spot now. Jones has done nothing but piss away the prime years of his career, and he will never get those back. Being the "GOAT" is about what you did, and Cormier grabbed the heavyweight belt. The fact that Jones "could have" no longer matters, because Jones isn't doing anything at this time but running his mouth and embarrassing himself.

Searches and Seizures - Consent - Voluntariness - Burden of Showing. The State has the burden of showing that a person's consent to a search was voluntary.
 Searches and Seizures - Consent - Voluntariness - Determination -Considerations. Whether a party's consent to a search was voluntary must be determined from the totality of the circumstances, consideration being given to intelligence, education, and advisement of rights, including the right not to consent. In such determination, no one factor is conclusive but each must be balanced against the others.
STAFFORD, C.J., concurs in the result only; UTTER and ROSELLINI, JJ., dissent by separate opinion; HOROWITZ, J., did not participate in the disposition of this case.
Review of a decision of the Court of Appeals, May 9, 1974, 11 Wn. App. 187. Reversed.
The Court of Appeals reversed a judgment of the Superior Court for Whitman County, No. C-1424, John A. Denoo, J., entered September 29, 1972. The respondent (State) petitioned the Supreme Court for review.
Prosecution for violation of the Uniform Controlled Substances Act. The defendants appealed to the Court of Appeals from convictions and sentences.
Robert F. Patrick, Prosecuting Attorney, for petitioner.
William J. Powell, for respondents (appointed counsel for appeal).
The defendants herein were prosecuted for possession of more than 40 grams of controlled substances. The defense rested solely on a motion to suppress evidence on the grounds it was the product of an illegal search and seizure. This evidence was very substantially over 40 grams of controlled substances found in the spare tire compartment in the trunk of defendants' panel truck. The motion was denied and the defendants were convicted. The Court of Appeals reversed and this court subsequently granted a petition for review.
his suspicions regarding possession of controlled substances by the occupants of the panel truck.
The defendants subsequently pulled into a drive-in in Rosalia. Trooper Sly, who had heard Deputy Clift's broadcast, pulled in next to the defendants' truck and noticed the defective taillight lens. Defendant McDirmid went into the drive-in. Defendant Shoemaker approached Trooper Sly, and they discussed the taillight. Trooper Sly then entered the vehicle ostensibly to check the brakes, which he found satisfactory. But while in the truck, Trooper Sly detected the odor of marijuana.
Trooper Small then arrived at the drive-in, and was advised by Trooper Sly of the proper functioning of the brakes and of the odor of marijuana. Trooper Sly then left the scene and Trooper Small then entered the truck and made his own inspection of the brakes at which time he observed a "roach clip" between the bucket seats in a litter container with what appeared to him to be a residue of marijuana on it. By this time, Deputy Clift had arrived and stationed himself on the driver's side of the vehicle.
Thereafter, Trooper Small arrested defendant McDirmid and read him his Miranda rights. Prior to searching defendant McDirmid, Trooper Small advised him that it would be easier if he would produce any contraband that he might have. Defendant McDirmid handed over a bag of marijuana. Trooper Small then advised McDirmid that the entire truck would be searched and that it would be easier if he told the trooper where any contraband was located. McDirmid then told Trooper Small that more contraband could be found in the spare-tire compartment. Trooper Small looked and found a very substantial amount of contraband. It was this evidence that gave rise to the instant prosecution. During this time, Deputy Clift had arrested defendant Shoemaker, gave him his Miranda warnings, searched him, and found 1 gram of hashish.
The broad issue is whether the evidence discovered in the panel truck was the product of an illegal search and seizure.
The State offers two theories to justify the warrantless search of the trunk of the vehicle. The first theory is that the search is justifiable under the vehicle inspection doctrine of Carroll v. United States, 267 U.S. 132,69 L. Ed. 543, 45 S. Ct. 280, 39 A.L.R. 790 (1925) and Chambers v. Maroney, 399 U.S. 42, 26 L. Ed. 2d 419, 90 S. Ct. 1975 (1970). This argument is comprised of three parts: (a) the initial entry into the vehicle can be justified either by RCW 46.64.070, which authorizes the State Patrol to enter vehicles for equipment inspections, or alternatively, the troopers had authority to stop the vehicle for driving with a defective taillight and to conduct an incidental search inside the vehicle for further evidence of the taillight infraction; (b) once inside the vehicle, the troopers smelled marijuana and observed a "roach clip" with what appeared to be a residue of marijuana on it. This gave the troopers probable cause to believe a crime was being committed, viz, possession of marijuana; (c) thus, Trooper Small was authorized to search the trunk of the vehicle pursuant to the Carroll-Chambers doctrine. The defendant counters this theory with the argument that the original entry into the panel truck was a mere pretext to search for evidence which the troopers did not have probable cause to believe was in the truck. Defendant argues that under State v. Michaels, 60 Wn.2d 638, 374 P.2d 989 (1962), such a search is illegal and the fruits thereof must be suppressed.
The second theory of the State is that notwithstanding the possible impropriety of the original entry into the truck, and the possible impropriety of the arrest of the defendants which was related to the original entry, defendant McDirmid validly consented to the search of his person and of the trunk of the vehicle. We agree with the State that a valid consent was given and that as a consequence of this we need not consider the validity of the State's first theory.
Q. And, then you say you told Mr. McDirmid you were going to search him and life would be easier if he had anything on him to produce it rather than to cause you to take it off of him? Words to that effect?
A. To that effect, yes.
Q. And, that's when you said he pulled out a bag of substance which appeared to be marijuana and handed it to you?
A. Then prior, after the search I asked him again with reference to the Chevrolet panel if there was anything there why didn't he tell us where it was at.
Q. You also indicated to him at that time you were going to search the panel?
Q. It would save having the car dismantled possibly if they produced anything that was there?
A. More or less, yes.
The defendants rely upon Bumper, supra, where a 66year-old, apparently uneducated, black widow who lived in a house in an isolated rural area "consented" to a search of her home after four white officials asserted they had a warrant to search the home. The alleged "consent" was determined to be "instinct with coercion" because it was obtained pursuant to an erroneous claim Of lawful authority to search; thus the "consent" was held to be involuntary. Defendants argue the officials in this case similarly asserted an erroneous claim of lawful authority to search, which rendered the situation "instinct with coercion" and the consent involuntary.
voluntariness of a consent to search is a question of fact to be determined by considering the totality of circumstances surrounding the alleged consent.
Several factors should be considered, including: (1) whether Miranda warnings had been given prior to obtaining consent; (2) the degree of education and intelligence of the consenting person; and (3) whether the consenting person had been advised of his right not to consent. See Bustamonte and United States v. Heimforth, 493 F.2d 970 (9th Cir. 1974). These factors should be judiciously balanced against each other with no particular factor necessarily being dispositive.
Although defendant McDirmid had not been advised of his right not to consent to the search of the vehicle, he had been given his Miranda warnings, which necessarily means that he had been advised of his right to remain silent. Further, in contrast to the situation in Bumper, McDirmid, as well as defendant Shoemaker, was a college student who presumably had a far greater level of sophistication and education than the black widow whose consent was held to have been involuntary.
Under these circumstances, we do not think that the consent of McDirmid to the search of the trunk of the vehicle fairly can be described as involuntary. In short, there was a valid consent to the search and the fruits thereof were properly admitted into evidence.
For the indicated reasons, the decision of the Court of Appeals should be reversed. It is so ordered. HUNTER, HAMILTON, WRIGHT, and BRACHTENBACH, JJ., concur.
STAFFORD, C.J., concurs in the result.
untarily" agreed to it.«1» I do not believe the demands of the Fourth Amendment can be so lightly cast aside.
Since Schneckloth v. Bustamonte, 412 U.S. 218, 36 L. Ed. 2d 854, 93 S. Ct. 2041 (1973), the rules regarding consent searches have been fairly clear, at least relative to those in other areas of the Fourth Amendment.«2» Consent to search is not subject to the limitations and restrictions applicable to "waiver" of other constitutional guaranties. Knowledge of the existence of the right to withhold consent is not prerequisite to the validity of its grant, at least where the person giving it is not in police custody. Schneckloth at pages 235-46, 249. Consent is binding if "voluntary," and voluntariness is "to be determined from all the circumstances." Schneckloth at pages 248-49.
«1» As noted in the majority opinion, the defendants have contended primarily that the search was illegal because of the absence of probable cause to stop and search their vehicle. They have not responded to the State's arguments On consent. It would appear that the "consent" here was a product of the stop and initial search, and that it is therefore tainted with the illegality of those actions and invalid apart from any question of voluntariness. See United States v. Horton, 488 F.2d 374, 380 n.5 (5th Cir. 1973), cert. denied, 416 U.S. 993 (1974); United States v. Ward, 488 F.2d 162 (9th Cir. 1973); cf. Wong Sun v. United States, 371 U.S. 471, 9 L. Ed. 2d 441, 83 S. Ct. 407 (1963); United States v. Basurto, 497 F.2d 781 (9th Cir. 1974). But this issue has not been raised on appeal, and the majority's interposition of the barrier of "consent" between the initial illegalities and the ultimate search is thus made possible.
«2» See LaFave, Search and Seizure: "The Course of True Law . . Has Not . . . Run Smooth", U.Ill.L.F. 225(1966). As is so often the case when substantive rules are pronounced, however, the clarification in Schneckloth O. Bustamonte, 412 U.S. 218, 36 L. Ed. 2d 854, 93 S. Ct. 2041 (1973) came at the cost of obscuring the theoretical foundations of the consent doctrine. Amsterdam, Perspectives on the Fourth Amendmat, 58 Minn. L. Rev. 349, 358 (1974).
The prosecution in this case did not and could not make this required showing. Virtually every aspect of the circumstances surrounding this search adds to, rather than overcomes, the presumption of coercion. First, it is significant, even if not conclusive, that Mr. McDirmid was not warned of his right to refuse. Schneckloth v. Bustamonte, supra at 226; United States v. Hearn, supra at 244; United States v. Heimforth, supra at 972. In addition, the number of policemen involved in the arrest and search (United States v. Hearn, supra at 244) and the fact that the location was not defendants' home or other familiar surroundings (United States v. Ruiz-Estrella, 481 F.2d 723, 727 (2d Cir. 1973)) militate against a holding of voluntariness. So, too, does the fact that the original suggestion that the search be made came from the police rather than the suspects (United States v. Hearn, supra at 244), in terms amounting to a "claim of right" (Bumper v. North Carolina, supra; Holloway v. Wolff, 482 F.2d 110, 114 (8th Cir. 1973)), which was unfounded and constituted a misrepresentation by the searching officers. United States v. Rothman, 492 F.2d 1260, 1265 (9th Cir. 1973).
«3» In Schneckloth the court hinted strongly that the presumption of coercion in in-custody consent cases is so strong that it cannot be overcome unless it is shown that the defendant was informed or otherwise aware of his right to refuse permission to search. Schneckloth v. Bustamonte, supra at 241 n. 29. The circuits have rejected such a per se rule, however, and held that arrest is only one factor to be considered in weighing the totality of the circumstances. United States v. Heimforth, 493 F.2d 970 (9th Cir. 1974), cert. denied, 416 U.S. 908 (1974); United States v. Mapp, 476 F.2d 67 (2d Cir. 1973).
fall far short of overbalancing these considerations. Miranda warnings say nothing about the right to refuse to consent to a search, and any implication they may give that silence is permissible was more than overcome in this case by Trooper Small's subsequent threat to dismantle the car if the search were not allowed. The advantages of a college education do not necessarily include the knowledge that a policeman cannot do whatever he threatens to do to a person or vehicle in his custody.
Hard cases make bad law, and I recognize that it is increasingly hard for judges to vacate the sentences of obviously guilty criminal defendants on the ground that the evidence establishing their guilt was unlawfully seized. The exclusionary rule exacts a heavy toll on the substantive law it is intended to enforce, as courts are loathe to find one violatiOn of law where the consequence of so doing is the inability to punish another. The Fourth Amendment must mean something, however, and until an alternative enforcement device is developed which may excuse the constitutional requirement of exclusion,«4» the bounds of its meaning must be defined through application of that rule. If it is wrong that "[t]he criminal is to go free because the constable has blundered," (People v. Defore, 242 N.Y. 13, 21, 150 N.E. 585 (1926)), it is equally wrOng that the constable's blunder is to go unrecognized in order that the criminal not go free.
«4» See Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents, 403 U.S. 388, 411, 29 L. Ed. 2d 619, 91 S. Ct. 1999 (1971) (Burger, C.J., dissenting); State v. Rousseau, 40 Wn.2d 92, 100, 241 P.2d 447 (1952) (Finley, J., concurring).
wrongdoers, courts must be willing to enforce it. I would do so here, and I therefore dissent.
ROSELLINI, J., concurs with UTTER, J.

Prevalence and incidence of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome in Europe—the Euro-epiME study from the European network EUROMENE: a protocol for a systematic review

BMJ Open, 8. ISSN 2044-6055
PDF (Published manuscript) - Published Version
Introduction: Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a chronic disease involving central nervous system and immune system disorders, as well as cardiovascular abnormalities. ME/CFS is characterised by severe chronic fatigue lasting for at least 6 months, including clinical symptoms such as tender cervical or axillary lymph nodes, muscle pain, joint pain without swelling or redness, post-exertional malaise for more than 24 hours and unrefreshing sleep. Studies on the epidemiology of ME/CFS in Europe only include single countries and, therefore, the prevalence and incidence of ME/CFS in Europe (as a whole) is unknown. One of the purposes of the European Network on ME/CFS (EUROMENE; European Union-funded COST Action; Reference number: 15111) is to address this gap in knowledge. We will systematically review the literature reporting figures from European countries to provide a robust summary and identify new challenges. Methods and analysis: We will systematically search the literature databases Scopus, PubMed and Web of Science for studies published in the last 10 years (ie, after 2007). No language restriction will be applied. Two independent reviewers will search, screen and select studies as well as extract data about their main characteristics and evaluate their methodological and reporting quality. When disagreements emerge, the reviewers will discuss to reach a consensus. We plan to produce a narrative summary of our findings as we anticipate that studies are scarce and heterogeneous. The possibility of performing meta-analyses will be discussed in a EUROMENE meeting. Ethics and dissemination: Ethical approval is not required as only publicly available data will be included. Findings will be described in EUROMENE reports, published in peer-reviewed journal(s) and presented at conferences. The findings will be also communicated to policy-makers, healthcare providers, people with ME/CFS and other sections of society through regular channels including the mass-media.

Cable TV might be facing a dramatic decline in popularity at a 7.5% drop yearly until it is completely phased out; it is still a thing people love. Xbox One is popularly known as a home video game console.
However, this device also goes down as an all-in-one entertainment system with features that can keep you glued to your living room's seat.
Among its entertainment pack, Xbox One is an excellent streaming device giving its users the room to stream videos from Netflix while still providing its users the needed resources to work with a hard drive and enjoy their content.
Another feature most people aren't aware of is connecting a digital TV tuner to Xbox One and having premium TV content.
In this guide, we documented the best TV tuners for Xbox one but before that, let's know a thing or two about TV tuners in relation to Xbox One.
What is a TV Tuner?
Also known as a TV tuner card, a TV tuner is a device that makes it possible for its host device to receive TV signals.
It is pretty prevalent in computers, especially Windows PC than in Xbox One. In fact, very few are aware that you can make use of a TV Tuner in an Xbox One because Microsoft has stopped making their TV-tuners (don't shriek, we have you covered).
There is both an external and internal TV tuner card; to reap the benefits of a TV tuner, you'll need its accompanying software.
Some TV tuners have inputs that resemble coaxial cable ports, giving room to be connected to satellite dishes or external aerials.
Another type act as video capture cards; they have the resources to record TV broadcasts on hard drives, just like the renowned Digital Video Recorder (DVR).
What is an Xbox One TV tuner?
An Xbox One TV tuner is a device that allows the Xbox console receive TV signals. Xbox One has this feature called OneGuide, built right into your console and serves as a TV listing feature.
They included this in Xbox One to make the console a vital part of the living room. As of today, Microsoft has decided to take off this feature. If you still have OneGuide on your Xbox One, you can enjoy it the most alongside a TV tuner.
4 Best TV Tuners for Xbox One
From this Xbox One support page, Microsoft claims just one TV tuner is compatible with Xbox One; well, we are about to give you four.
Without much ado, go below for our list of the most excellent Xbox One TV tuners.
1. Hauppauge Digital TV Tuner
Hauppauge's great thing is that Microsoft approves it, making it the recommended USB TV tuner for Xbox One.
Like you can count on Microsoft for delivering quality to its Xbox One, so can you rely on a device they recommended themselves.
No doubt Hauppauge isn't the only Xbox TV tuner; it is still the #1 go-to in this category.
Everything about this device is quality. It allows Xbox One users to watch and pause over-the-air (OTA) live TV at will.
This service is free for US and Canada users, and it works with an antenna for reception. Coupled with OneGuide, you can integrate Hauppauge with your local TV listing and enjoy premium content.
It doesn't take long to set up this device; aside from its USB easy plug feature, Hauppauge comes with well-detailed instructions on setting it up.
It also features a 10-mile antenna while still giving its users the room to upgrade it. The renowned ATSC digital TV is one of the most excellent services you can enjoy with this TV tuner.
All you have to do is connect your ATSC antenna to Hauppauge and get access to over 1500 free TV stations at your beck and call.
To enjoy this with your Xbox One, you need a good internet connection.
How to connect Hauppauge digital TV tuner to your Xbox One
Step 1: Your antenna should have an unobstructed view of your window to allow free signal flow. Try to position your antenna close to the window; do not hide it.
You can tactically place it so that it won't disorganize your room while still getting access to the window.
Step 2: Connect the antenna to Hauppauge and plug it into your Xbox One.
Step 3: Start enjoying. If you still have access to OneGuide, download, and access countless channels. There's also ATSC, which is free and gives you access to over 1500 TV stations.
2. HDHomeRun
Next on our list is SiliconDust renowned HDHomeRun. This TV tuner is a bit different from those you are used to. Here, you'll connect it to both your WiFi network and your digital over-the-air antenna to reap its benefits.
HDHomeRun is available for Windows PC too, and if you've used it there, you'll notice very few slight differences.
Actually, the only noticeable difference is, on Windows, you control it with a mouse, while on Xbox One, it comes with a controller which acts like its remote.
It doesn't limit you to just your Xbox One but allows you to stream on multiple devices with ease making it a multi-room, multi-user network tuner.
It gives you detailed instructions on using it, pointing you to recordings and TV show descriptions. Just like Hauppauge, you can make use of both ATSC 1.0 and ATSC 3.0 on your Xbox One. This is a 4-tuner-in-one device.
You get the ability to pause recordings on one device and in one room and resume it on a different device in a separate room with its DVR services.
What seems like a downside is, HDHomeRun isn't compatible with OneGuide; it still comes packaged with a reasonable app as an option.
Nevertheless, since Microsoft would be disabling OneGuide soon, it doesn't seem like you are missing out on much.
You can enjoy 5.1 Dolby sound, can pause and rewind and properly scan for newer channels.
How to connect HDHomeRun to Xbox One
HDHomeRun comes in different models; each has its setup guide packed in it. Nevertheless, the setup shouldn't be far-fetched from what we have below.
This guide is for HDHomeRun Connect Duo.
Step 1: First, you'll connect HDHomeRun to your antenna and then connect it to your router with the Ethernet cable found in its box.
Step 2: Next, connect it to a power source and then visit the Xbox One app store and download the HDHomeRun app.
Step 3: Next, visit the HDHomeRun setup site. The site automatically detects that an HDHomeRun device is connected to your network and then follows the onscreen instructions to set it up.
Step 4: Launch HDHomeRun on your Xbox One and enjoy. There's seldom any setup to carry out again because if both devices are on the same WiFi network, they automatically pair and start working.
3. Xbox One Digital TV Tuner (Pre-owned)
Since Microsoft has disabled their TV tuner's production, you may likely not find this from any official seller or site. However, there are still vendors that sell it online.
This TV tuner was unique in its way, offering its users the ability to Pause, fast forward, and snap live TV to the next show or game with ease.
This TV tuner functioned the best with OneGuide allowing you access to top channels, alongside gaming and entertainment apps and movies.
With a coaxial to HDMI connection, you can enjoy seamless TV shows on both your Xbox One and your tablets and phone, which are nearby.
It offers a multitasking feature, allowing you have quality TV time while waiting for your multiplayer match to start.
Every juicy feature-packed in OneGuide is available for you with this TV tuner; you can use the voice features, customize your favorite channels list, enjoy OneGuide on SmartGlass, and other features setup process is relatively easy and comes in its box or watch this video.
Price: $10 – $18 (pre-owned)
Get it here: EB Games or eBay
4. Tablo Dual LITE OTA DVR
Another TV tuner to look out for is the Tablo Dual LITE OTA DVR. It functions mainly as a DVR giving you room to record up to 8 TB worth of over-the-air content to an external hard drive.
From Tablo, you can stream your content to multiple devices, including your Xbox One, just like the HDHomeRun TV tuner.
It offers a wireless connection alongside a channel guide which enables you to schedule and view your recordings.
You can skip commercials, watch pause and also record not one but four OTA channels simultaneously.
You can jump, fast-forward and rewind your recordings with ease. Although it lacks an HDMI connection, you can still connect it to your router and stream on multiple devices at will.
Its antenna is sold separately. It gives you the freedom to position it at will and get the best reception available if you get it.
The apps are free for Xbox One, and they have excellent technical support on stand-by.
How do you connect a TV tuner to Xbox One?
Most TV tuners set up may vary; these types often come with an instructions manual. However, this is the general way to connect a TV tuner to Xbox One.
Step 1: Plug in your antenna or the signal booster you use to your Xbox One's TV Tuner's coaxial connector.
Step 2: If you use a USB TV tuner, plug it into the USB port at the console's back (varying tuners would have a setup for this.)
Step 3: Xbox notifies you when the TV tuner has been detected. At the same time, the notification is still on the screen; press and holds down the Xbox button on your controller to enter the Settings page. If you missed the notification window, navigate to Settings, followed by TV & OneGuide, then TV Tuner.
Step 4: Allow the console to scan for TV channels. These channels aren't often sorted out sequentially; give it a few minutes. You can navigate through your channels with your joystick.
Step 5: To hide duplicate channels, go to Settings, select TV & OneGuide and finally, OneGuide, then click on the Hide SD duplicate channels. What happened here was, OneGuide showed the HD and SD versions of the channels.
Step 6: Go back to OneGuide and enjoy your channels.
Since Xbox One is packed as a one-stop-shop for almost all living room entertainment activities, it is obviously normal why TV tuners can work on it. Although Microsoft has stopped producing their TV tuners and has recommended Hauppauge as the official Xbox One TV tuner, we could still dig out the best four TV tuners for Xbox One. Thank you for stopping by, have a great day.

Dr Andrew Meszaros delivers the Kiliani-Lecture at the University of Würzburg, Germany.
Dr-andrew-meszaros-delivered-the-kiliani-lecture-at-the-university-of-würzburg-germany
June 28th - June 28th
Dr Andrew Meszaros delivered the Kiliani-Lecture this year hosted by the Catholic Theology Faculty of the University of Wurzburg in Germany.
Entitled "Work or Leisure," Dr Meszaros explored the theological significance of work and leisure, drawing upon the theological explorations of Marie-Dominique Chenu (1895-1990) and Josef Pieper (1904-1997).
In Chenu's theology, work received a positive evaluation, as an activity that it was suitable for the realization of salvation - the communion of the people among each other and with God - in the beginning, and in so far as through them men can pursue a definite goal together. For Pieper, on the other hand, work, especially as a social function as claimed by Chenu, is critically evaluated. Work instead serves above all to enable leisure (non-activity, inner silence and contemplation), whose central characteristic is openness, to God, fellow human beings and to oneself. This results in a fundamental contradiction to the work, which, as a self-contained activity, aims to pursue a specific goal. So while Pieper wants to focus on the profane aspect of work apart from the sacred realm, Chenu believes that salvation can be realized within this seemingly profane realm, through the work itself.
Dr Meszaros concludes that both Chenu and Pieper expressed in their views a fundamental aspect of Christian social teaching. Chenu points out the theological value of the work for the divine plan of salvation, and Pieper points to the limitations of this value with regard to salvation.
The Kiliani Lecture, which was founded in 2017, and was first delivered by Archbishop Diarmuid Martin. This is a further aspect of the mutual cooperation between the Pontifical University and the Universität Würzburg, that includes a long running ERASMUS agreement and external examination.

Q: Label component display issue On the web page linked below I am trying to use labels to display a vertical list of items found under the heading 'What we specialise in!'. The default element is a span to display a label however multiple labels are stacking up on the same line which is not what I want to achieve visually, I actually desire each label to occupy an individual line instead. (Is this possibly to do with the display: inline-block; CSS rule?). Is there a change of markup or CSS property to assist with this?
http://openreachmarketing.co.uk/index.php
  Accident Compensation
  PPI
  Buildings and Contents Insurance
  Utility Switches
  Car Loans
  Solar Panels

Here is the documentation for the bootstrap labels:
http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/components.html#labels-badges

A: You have h4 for the heading!

What we specialise in!

The What we specialise in! is behaving exactly as expected. But if you want that to be displayed like a label, then clear the styles for the H4 there and give this mark-up.

What we specialise in!

Or

What we specialise in!

The other things like: Accident Compensation PPI Buildings and Contents Insurance Utility Switches Car Loans Solar Panels, etc are behaving right.

O Eutelsat 115 West A, anteriormente denominado de Morelos 3 e Satmex 5, foi um satélite de comunicação geoestacionário construído pela Space Systems/Loral que esteve localizado na posição orbital de 115 graus de longitude oeste e foi operado inicialmente pela Satmex e posteriormente pela Eutelsat. O satélite foi baseado na plataforma HS-601HP e sua vida útil estimada era de 15 anos. Ele saiu de serviço em abril de 2016 e foi enviado para a órbita cemitério.

História
Em agosto de 1996, a Hughes Space and Communications International, Inc. (HSCI) e a Boeing Satellite Systems International, Inc., assinaram um contrato com a Satmex — anteriormente propriedade da Telecomm — para a construção do satélite Morelos 3, que foi posteriormente renomeado para Satmex 5. O satélite foi construído na Integrated Satellite Factory de propriedade da Hughes, na Califórnia. Como nos programas Morelos e Solidaridad, a equipe de trabalho era composta de pessoal da Hughes e engenheiros mexicanos. O México enviou mais de 10 engenheiros para participar do projeto e integração do satélite.

Em 27 de janeiro de 2010, A Satmex relatou uma falha no sistema de propulsão primário (XIPS), que mantinha o satélite em órbita, no entanto as operações continuaram porque entrou em funcionamento o sistema de propulsão química, que tinha uma duração de 2,5 anos, devido a este problema a Satmex solicitou a construção do Satmex 8 que substituiria o Satmex 5.

O satélite Satmex 5 foi adquirido pela Eutelsat em sua fusão com a Satmex em 2014, e foi renomeado em maio do mesmo ano para Eutelsat 115 West A.

Em abril de 2016, ele foi retirado de serviço e transferido para a órbita cemitério.

Objetivo
O satélite foi construído para fornecer serviços avançados como, comunicação empresarial, serviços de televisão por satélite, programas educacionais, entre outros, com alto desempenho e confiabilidade.

Lançamento
O satélite foi lançado no dia 5 de dezembro de 1998, às 19:43 UTC, por meio de um veículo Ariane 442L, a partir do Centro Espacial de Kourou, na Guiana Francesa. Ele tinha uma massa de lançamento de 4.135 kg.

Capacidade
O Eutelsat 115 West A era equipado com 24 transponders de banda C e 24 de banda Ku, para fornecer serviços de multimídia como, internet, voz, dados e televisão analógicas e digital. Devido à sua capacidade de transmissão permitia que serviços direct-to-home fosse recebidos por antenas terrestres de 60 polegadas ou ainda menores.

Cobertura
O satélite pode ser recepcionado em todo o território do México, na América Central, nas ilhas do Caribe, no território continental do Estados Unidos e na maior parte da América do Sul.

Not a legal will: Suicide note sparks estate battle

Australia needs initiatives 'specifically targeted to help men's mental health'

A handwritten suicide note has sparked a bitter will dispute between a Gold Coast man's family and the girlfriend he left behind.
Former warehouse manager Craig MacQueen took his own life in 2015, writing in the note that he wanted his estate - worth about $700,000 - split 50-50 between his parents and his partner of five years, Nicole Rosmalen.
However the note did not constitute a legal document, igniting a protracted battle that has also seen two more women - Mr MacQueen's adult daughters from a previous relationship, come forward staking a claim.
Ms Rosmalen, who was at one point left homeless amid mounting legal costs, has now engaged Shine Lawyers in a bid to secure a share of Mr MacQueen's estate for her and her daughter, who she said called him "Dad".
Ms Rosmalen said the heartache of her partner's sudden death had been made worse by the ongoing legal struggles.
Nicole Rosmalen is embroiled in a bitter will dispute over the estate of her former partner Craig MacQueen, even though he requested she be given half his assets when he died.
"After Craig's passing, my world has been turned upside-down," she said.
"I was grieving and his suicide note had to go to court, making my anguish all the harder.
"When I look back at that suicide note, I believe Craig's intentions were only good and to make sure I was looked after.
"But not having a formal will has meant I had to take it into court, and with all that there's been so much conflict with the extended family that it's been almost too much to bear."
Rebecca O'Toole, from Shine Lawyers, said the case served as a tragic reminder abut the need for legally-binding wills.
"This has truly been a heartbreaking and worst case scenario for Nicole and her daughter," she said.
"Craig left a note with the intention to provide, but what has resulted is Nicole has wound up homeless and in conflict, as legal costs besiege the estate.
"Sadly, handwritten suicide notes and other informal documents are often brought before the court for consideration as a will."
Lawyers for the MacQueen family declined to comment.

Bonddb is licenced under the LGPL licence.
A lot of new and exciting features are planned for bonddb in the future. At the moment development is pretty heavy but some items on the todo list may not be started till after version 1.0.
If anyone is keen to do some work on bonddb there is a TODO list. The cvs server is behind a firewall but I can give accounts to get access to it if anyone wants it. The code can seem daunting at first due to the complexity but once you grab the overall picture of the system its quite easy to break it down.
Some major tasks like bindings to languages has yet to be done, and is low on my priority list. Binding directly into a language would be highly useful, just not as useful to me as it is to others.
For questions and bug reports etc you can send an email to andru@treshna.com.
