Sustainability Report: TransAlta Achieves Targets in Environment, Safety and Economic Development
by ahnationtalk on April 30, 2015415 Views
CALGARY, Alberta (April 29, 2015) – TransAlta Corporation (TSX: TA; NYSE: TAC) released its 21st annual Report on Sustainability today.
This year's report underscores TransAlta's commitment to reduce emissions from coal-fired facilities, which is part of the company's 15-year transition from coal. TransAlta's target, set in 2013, was to decrease coal greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions 20 per cent from 2005 levels by 2021, and 55 per cent by 2030. To the end of 2014, TransAlta has reduced its coal-related GHG emissions 12 per cent from 2005 levels.
The Report on Sustainability provides TransAlta with an annual opportunity to rigorously assess its performance across the three pillars of sustainability – economic, environmental and social.
"Our company will continue to play a key role in the larger transition of Alberta's electricity sector from coal-fired generation to less carbon intensive electricity production, and we have many strategic options available to us as we work to continue to meet federal and provincial environmental regulations," said Dawn Farrell, president and CEO of TransAlta. "Some of these options include investing in life-extensions at our coal plants, such as through carbon capture and storage projects, conversion from coal to gas, or investing in additional renewable generation in the province."
The report also highlights TransAlta's commitment to safety, as the company in 2014 achieved the lowest injury frequency rate in its history. This reflects an exceptional effort from employees and contractors who fulfilled their on-the-job responsibilities in a safe, carefully planned and thoughtful manner.
"Safety is a core value at TransAlta. We take great pride in our ability to keep the people on our sites safe, and our employees and contractors continue to deliver best-in-class safety results," said Farrell.
Safety – In 2014, TransAlta achieved the lowest injury frequency rate in our company's history. This puts TransAlta among the top safety performers in the utility industry.
Emission reduction commitments – TransAlta is on track to meet its target set in 2013 to reduce coal GHG emissions 20 per cent from 2005 levels by 2021 and 55 per cent by 2030 with a new target to reduce NOx and SO2 emissions by 95 per cent from 2005 levels by 2030.
Clean energy growth in Western Australia – Announced the development of the South Hedland combined cycle gas plant in Northwestern Australia and completed the Fortescue natural gas pipeline, connecting a remote region of the Pilbara to a reliable and affordable fuel alternative to diesel.
Commitment to Aboriginal Relations recognized – TransAlta was awarded Silver Level Progressive Aboriginal Relations from the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business becoming one of only 10 companies in Canada to achieve this.
Supporting local communities – TransAlta raised nearly $2 million dollars that was donated to its local communities via the annual United Way campaign. Our employees and dedicated retiree group also combined to volunteer 27,000 plus hours to community initiatives.
Economic development – In partnership with Calgary-based Light Up The World, a group of TransAlta employees ventured into a remote region of Peru to help install solar power systems in homes not connected to the grid.
Recycling – TransAlta recycled more than 846,000 tonnes of coal by-product materials.
Low-carbon power generation – TransAlta Renewables Inc., TransAlta Corporation's subsidiary, provides investors with the opportunity to invest directly in a highly contracted portfolio of low-carbon power generation facilities. TransAlta Corporation retains more than 70 per cent control over TransAlta Renewables Inc.
For the past two decades TransAlta has been reporting on its sustainability performance with the purpose of providing clear and comprehensive coverage about its sustainability practices, progress and performance. TransAlta voluntarily has its Report on Sustainability data assured by a third-party.

Sisson, Jr., et al. v. Lhowe, et al.
October 6, 2011 by Justia Inc
Following the death of plaintiff's wife, plaintiff amended the complaint for medical malpractice in a pending action against defendants, to include a claim for wrongful death. The wrongful death claim in the amended complaint was subsequently dismissed as time barred pursuant to G.L.c. 260, section 4 (statute of repose), and plaintiff appealed. The court held that a wrongful death claim could be substituted for a personal injury claim only where the trial had not commenced; the original complaint alleging malpractice was filed within the statutes of limitation and repose; and the allegations of liability supporting the personal injury claim were the same as those supporting the wrongful death claim. Accordingly, the court held that the wrongful death claim in this case should not have been dismissed where plaintiff could, after the period of time set forth in the statue of repose had expired, amend a complaint alleging medical malpractice resulting in injury including expected premature death.

The main feature was certainly the buffet table. The client had made the letters of their daughters name and we used the brand new 3' polka dot clear balloons to highlight this. We put 11' balloons inside each of the 3' balloons to make it blend beautifully with the rest of the decor. We also sourced some fabulous hot pink polka dot boxes and added orange masterbows to anchor all the balloons. The whole thing was gorgeous!!
Then we employed the 3' balloons on the dancefloor. The large balloons had two purposes. The first was to create the traditional divide on the dancefloor to keep the sexes seperated. The second was to again put some colour into the huge ceiling void.
We achieved our objective....and most importantly our client was very happy.
Love your work Dave. Thanks for always being willing to share your skills/ talent/ experience and knowledge for us newbees to the bizo. If you haven't guessed, yes, I am a fan indeed. Always watching your Blog...best wishes from Kalgoorlie!!!

By Lance Venta	 On Feb 15, 2018
Entercom has announced that Randy 'Boner' Smith will return to Active Rock "Rock 105" 105.5 WRXR-FM Rossville GA/Chattanooga TN to host afternoons.
Smith previously served as Program Director and morning host at WRXR-FM from 2001-2016 under former owner iHeartMedia until his position was eliminated. He is the second addition to the station following new PD/Morning host Sean Stewart as Entercom is restoring local hosts to the station following its acquisition of the Chattanooga cluster from iHeartMedia last year.
Entercom, the #1 creator of live, original, local audio content in the United States, announced today that Chattanooga radio veteran Randy Smith, known as "Boner," will be rejoining active rock radio station Rock 105 (WRXR-FM) as the new afternoon show host. The new show "Boner in the Afternoon" will air weekdays from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m ET.
"Boner is a longtime local on-air personality and we are thrilled to reunite him with the Rock 105 listeners," said Nichole Hartman, Senior Vice President and Market Manager, Entercom Chattanooga. "Boner has been a part of the fabric of the Rock 105 brand in many roles over the years and we're excited that he will now be hosting Afternoon Drive."
"I am thrilled to be back and cannot wait to reconnect with the Chattanooga rock community. I'm looking forward to spending my afternoons entertaining Rock 105's beloved listeners," said Boner.
Boner joined Clear Channel in 2001 as Morning Host and Program Director for Rock 105 (WRXR), a role he held for over 15 years.
Rock 105 reestablished itself as Chattanooga's live and local rock station after the transformational merger of Entercom and CBS Radio. Rock 105 is now part of Entercom, a leading American media and entertainment company and one of the top two radio broadcasters in the country reaching over 100 million people each week through a robust portfolio of over 235 radio stations, digital platforms and live events.

Jackie Evancho Available In:
Pop, Classical, Singer Songwriter, Alternative, Indie, Vocal, Festivals And Events, Soul, Latin, Foreign, Documentary, Rock, Christian And Gospel
The Summer Knows
(Se) Cinema Paradiso
Dream With Me Concert
Jackie Evancho's Dream With Me In Concert is the perfect video companion to her chart-topping album, Dream With Me, which was produced by the legendary David Foster. David Foster has worked with the biggest names in music, including Beyoncé, Prince, Josh Groban and Celine Dion, but he admits that Jackie's talent astonished him. "Her natural ability and the depth of her understanding of the musical process left me speechless," he says. Foster has mentored Jackie and appears on Dream With Me In Concert as the show's host.
The concert was recorded inside and on the grounds of the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, Florida, which includes the stunning mansion Ca' d'Zan, known as the last of the Gilded Age mansions built in America. Ringling was the impresario behind the iconic Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus. "This is a big, beautiful place," said Jackie after she toured the grounds. "My favorite part is the Peter Paul Rubens [art] gallery," where she performed the haunting song "Dark Waltz" accompanied only by Foster on piano and Conrad Tao on violin - and surrounded by four of Rubens' largest, and most striking, canvases.
Between the Line: Live at the Fillmore
Mounted and shot live at the legendary Fillmore concert hall in San Francisco, California, this music set features the uniquely gifted, talented and beautiful young singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles, an adult alternative musician frequently compared to Norah Jones and Fiona Apple. Danny Clinch and Pablo Cassaverde direct; selections include: "August Moon," "City," "Love Song," "Bottle it Up" and many more. As an extension of the concert itself, the program takes viewers behind the scenes, both during the days leading up to the gig and backstage at the actual concert, and provides a gentle biographical portrait of the recording artist.

Fysah
Self-described as the black baby of Amy Winehouse and Adele, Fysah's voice is a delicate combination of soul, pop, and indie rock. Backed by a keyboardist raised in the gospel sounds of the church and a bassist steeped in funk and RNB, the final sound created is rich in emotion and personality.
Primera Fila Flans
Ilse Ivonne Y Mimi

Episode 1: Fuck Art Let's Dance
London Calling The Untold Story Of British Pop Music
"Fuck art let's dance!" proclaimed the famous slogan on a post-punk T-shirt, expressing the rebellious musical spirit that thrived in art colleges at the time. Ironically it was precisely this spirit that had led to British art colleges contributing to pop music culture on a scale unmatched elsewhere. The new role of art schools as a social melting pot in the 1960s, and their policy that everyone had to study a broad-based arts curriculum before being allowed to specialise, resulted in a new cultural playground where musical passions and fresh ideas flourished. Every British pop band contained at least one art school graduate and many, from Roxy Music and Wire to Franz Ferdinand, formed entirely at art school. Pete Townshend's legendary Union Jack jacket - often misinterpreted as patriotism - was a pure pop art statement, deconstructing the national flag as fashion, and the band's clever conceptual collection The Who Sell Out was the result of manager Kit Lambert "encouraging my art school ambitions". Even scruffy rebels like The Sex Pistols owed their aesthetic to art college graduates Malcolm McLaren and Jamie Reid's love of the Situationist and Dadaist movements, and every band that hadn't met at art college boasted an art college graduate, or found itself steered, styled, sloganised, photographed and reported on by their like. This opening episode examines the reasons behind this phenomenon, and asks if this uniquely British impulse has run its course.
Live in Europe
Hard partying pop-princess Pink brings her special brand of bubble-gum beats to the town that gave birth to the rave scene with this release of a 2004 performance captured live at Manchester, England's Evening News Arena. Of course fans can expect such hits as "Get the Party Started" and "Don't Let Me Get Me," and in addition to her most popular hits, Pink also performs a cover of Guns 'n' Roses "Welcome to the Jungle," offers a special tribute to the legendary Janis Joplin, and allows viewers into the tour bus for a nineteen-minute documentary showcasing just what it's like to hit the road in Europe.
TV Is My Parent
TV is My Parent is an incredible live concert by critically renowned singer SIA. This performance this is a MUST for all her fans, as well as for those who have yet to experience the true power and live talent of SIA.
Band In Seattle Concert 213 A
Tbasa
TBASA's unique name comes from simplifying his real name: Tim Basaraba. And it fits the unique style that earned him the description of "Idaho weird" before Napoleon Dynamite. Tim releases one album a year and finds expression through a tight combination of DJ, songwriter and vocalist. Here he adds performances by Hope Simpson and Jordan Vazquez with back up vocals and long-time friend Matt Stegner, vocalist and guitar.
Band in Seattle Concert 215
The Fame Riot
The Fame Riot is clearly one of the best bands to emerge from the Seattle scene. Beyond the look & the youthful swagger, they provide great music and great entertainment. In a 2013 Sound Off interview, Shazzam Watkins and Liz Scarlett described their music as "a soup that never stops cooking but you can try it any time you like." Their quest to create infectiously danceable, yet credible glam pop-rock is a dream fulfilled, because at this fortuitous age they have the talent to go out on a limb with their dandy style and driving music.
A Night Out With the Backstreet Boys
A Night Out With the Backstreet Boys is a once in a lifetime concert recorded before 200 handpicked fans in Cologne, Germany. Hear Brian, Nick, AJ, Kevin and Howie with a string section and choir performing fan favorites like you've never heard them.
Li was born in Ystad, Skåne, in Sweden, in 1986 and was raised by artistic parents; her mother was a photographer, her father is a musician. Here she performs at The Oxford Art Factory, in Sydney, Australia, on January 5, 2009.
Habitame Siempre
This amazing concert film of The Queen of Latin Pop Thalia, recorded at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City, features major Latin superstars such as Prince Royce, James Navarro, Samo, Leonel Garcia and Erik Rubin.

NYAB Event - "The St. Petersburg Gamble" Exhibition
"The St. Petersburg Gamble" Exhibition
Swiss Institute Contemporary Art
Giovanni Anselmo, Jean Arp, Ericka Beckman, Barbara Bloom, Alex Mackin Dolan, Marcel Duchamp, Cayetano Ferrer, Douglas Gordon, John Miller, Kaspar Müller, Sarah Ortmeyer, Tabor Robak, and Amalia Ulman.
In the St. Petersburg gamble, the house offers to flip a coin until it comes up heads. The payoff doubles each time tails appears, with this compounding stopping and payment being given at the first heads. By conventional definitions, the St. Petersburg gamble has an infinite expected value; nonetheless, most people share the intuition that they should not offer more than a few dollars to play. Explaining why people offer such small sums to play a gamble with infinite expected value remains a contentious question in economics and philosophy.
Based upon the theory of the same name developed by 18th century Swiss mathematicians, brothers Nicolaus and Daniel Bernoulli, The St. Petersburg Paradox invites artists to consider notions of risk aversion, expected value, and gaming.
An early experiment in the use of chance procedures as a means to suspend artistic agency, Jean Arp's 1916 Collage géométrique is one in a series of collages drawn from the random composition of tossed pieces of paper. Eighty years later, Douglas Gordon's Bad Faith gambles with the very creation of a new artwork by betting its entire production budget on the unlikely occurrence of snow on Christmas Day in Stuttgart. Furthering this conflation of artwork and monetary value is a group of Marcel Duchamp's Monte Carlo Bonds (1924-1938), a playful attempt at bankrupting the Monaco casino through a flimsy financial scheme. Los Angeles-based artist Cayetano Ferrer has created a site-specific installation composed of dozens of different carpets specifically manufactured for casinos, where frenetic visual stimuli are designed to both obscure the wear and tear of 24-hour gambling palaces and to brighten up the cold mechanics of adverse probability.
Tabor Robak's new video, A* (2014), which was commissioned for this exhibition, channels the intensity of the gamer's ups and downs, ricocheting between the euphoria of an elusive win and resignation to inevitable loss. John Miller's painting Labyrinth 1 (1999) renders a zoomed-in frame from the perennially popular TV game show The Price is Right at the height of mass media's ubiquity. Ericka Beckman's film You the Better (1983), drawing upon the adversarial nature of team sports, animates the absurdity of blithely entering into a game that cannot be won.
New works created by Alex Mackin Dolan, Kaspar Müller and Amalia Ulman engage with the internet's refraction of aspirational consumption. Elements of Dolan's painting are culled from disparate images and memes born out of financial anxieties, while Ulman's large digital prints of found postcards revel in the romanticization of what American economist and sociologist Thorstein Veblen has described as "pecuniary canons of taste" (The Theory of the Leisure Class, 1899). Müller's stack of prints, entitled Tropic of Cancer (2014), exploits the rote vocabularies and unpredictable social dynamics of online peer-to-peer commerce, as the artist offers the entire contents of his Berlin apartment for sale via a dedicated phone line (+4917690988107, 24/7). The Swiss Institute's website will encourage bidding on a different item each day.
Barbara Bloom's 1992 artist book Never Odd or Even (whose title itself is a palindrome), along with four works from her eponymous series of butterfly cases, illustrates the possibility of the zero-sum game conjectured by the Bernoullis' famous paradox. Sarah Ortmeyer's new sculpture series, SANKT PETERSBURG PARADOX (2014) scatters a miscellany of chessboards across the main gallery, with game pieces replaced by 64 eggs of various sizes and types in a precarious equilibrium. This sense of tension and an undercurrent of mortal jeopardy charges Giovanni Anselmo's 1968 untitled sculptural installation, in which a pair of 500-pound stones maintain live wires in close proximity. This masterpiece of Arte Povera is an extreme testament to artists' enduring interest in relinquishing authorial power, sustained across historical avant-gardes and guided to this day by what Georges Bataille calls, " the giddy seductiveness of chance."
"Gambling generates by way of experiment the lightning-
quick process of stimulation at the moment of danger, the
marginal case in which presence of mind becomes divination
-that is to say, one of the highest, rarest moments in life."
Walter Benjamin, Notes on a Theory of Gambling, 1929
ADVERTISE ON NYAB

Another dead dolphin found in Penang
Sad fate: The carcass of the dolphin that washed up on the Teluk Bayu beach.
GEORGE TOWN: A dead dolphin washed ashore at the Teluk Bayu beach in Teluk Kumbar, the second such incident in the area within a month.
Beach-goers spotted the carcass, took pictures of it and uploaded them on social media. The images have since gone viral.
The first case occurred last month in which a dead dolphin, believed to have choked on plastic, was found along the beach off Pulau Jerejak.
It was not clear how the dolphin in the latest incident had died.
According to Universiti Sains Malaysia marine biologist Dr Aileen Tan, it was common for turtles to choke on plastic refuse, thinking that these were jellyfish.
Dolphins could also make the same mistake, she said after the first incident.
Sahabat Alam Malaysia president S.M. Mohamed Idris said he was saddened by the incidents because two dolphins had died in a month.
"It's time for people to realise that throwing away rubbish haphazardly can cause the deaths of sea creatures.
"We will be starting a major clean-up campaign at polluted beaches in the state soon.
"I urge other NGOs to join us," he added.
The state Fisheries Department could not be reached for comment.

When it comes to home enchancment, some dollars stretch greater than others. And should you're on a limited funds, it turns into much more necessary to spend those dollars wisely. The 2 types can co-exist when executed correctly. In truth, relating to rustic designs and the concept of spaciousness, it has already been applied in many houses. Larger properties do indeed incorporate giant windows that let in plenty of light and keep spaces open for a more pure feel. For a home that's rustic, you may incorporate accents that are barely more trendy, or even vice versa. For instance, a country dwelling would not should be stuffed to the brim with issues that are supposed to remind you of the outdoors, from rugs to knickknacks. Somewhat, make the most of a less complicated approach with basic furniture kinds, minimalist lighting constructions, accents that do not call consideration to themselves or are fabricated from stone or earth metals.
With the climate in many components of the nation cooling down and sliding us into fall, it's getting to be time to think about ways to arrange your house for upcoming winter climate. While it's far too early in most places to be nervous in regards to the winter weather, it isn't too early to get a head begin on being ready. Should you ever watch a butterfly or a hummingbird within the garden you'll note that they fly to all issues brilliant and delightful. Sure the sparrows and the robins and the cardinals fly to the food and water however butterflies and hummingbirds are attracted by beauty. We as people are related in nature. We are going to gravitate to the wonder around us.

Samuel slides his knife from its sheath, investigating the source of the noise.
(What sort of noise is it? Could you describe it?)
Samuel stumbles upon the source of the sound, coming from three cells to the party's right. When they investigate, they see... Rasuti beating someone up?
Samuel: What the hell?!
David: Wait. As much as I hate him and his corrupt actions, we'd better not get spotted. Let's retreat a bit.
The party manages to enter another room.
David: Connor, you seem to be the one who's most acquainted with this "Metaverse..." Do you know what's going on? We saw... Rasuti hitting on a prisoner...

Connor: "The person we saw getting beaten up... wasn't real. Or, more accurately, they are, but only in the Metaverse."
David: "What do you mean..?"
Connor: "Well, the person getting beaten up right now... isn't the same as the person in the real world."
David: "Huh?"
Connor: "They were only a cognition generated by the ruler's distorted desires. Think of them as a clone, of sorts. What happens to them, doesn't affect who they represent outside the Metaverse." It feels wrong to call it the 'real world' for some reason...
Quote from Player_Miner»
David: So... to summarize, these "cognitions..." They're created by someone's desires...? And whatever happens here, doesn't happen to whoever they correspond to in the real world? Is that right?
Connor: "Pretty much..."
David: Well, now that just fits the bill.
Connor: Huh?
David: Based on what I know, he's a total liar. He innocently says he's on a journey to find love, but the "love" he speaks of is that he loves going from town to town and controlling the citizens there. I don't know how he does that, but he just does. And that's why I can't forgive him.
Samuel: Same here. There's no way he'll get away with this!
The party leaves the room, and passes the cell they once stumbled upon. The prisoner there is just lying there, lifelessly, while Rasuti is gone.
David: Come on... where's the map?!
Where will you look?
Empty Cells: These cells are unoccupied, and the doors are unlocked.
Drawbridge: The bridge is currently uncrossable.
Safe Room: The room where the party came from.

Samuel scans the cells for anything useful, specifically for a map or prisoners to talk to.
Samuel: "Let's take a look and see if we can find any other prisoners. They're residents of this 'Metaverse', right? Maybe they know things about the castle we don't. I'm sure they'll be willing to lend some aid, considering where they are right now."
The first thing you try are the cells, but they're empty. You try the drawbridge, but it's uncrossable.

Quote from Algot120»
You know, are our characters wearing anything specific for story reasons or just outfits they would be wearing based on who they are?
To keep it short, since you're in the Metaverse, your outfits represent what your characters see as a rebel. (In other words, when they think of a rebel, what do they think they look like? Once they reach an answer, that's who your character looks like in the Metaverse.)
You notice a button in the statue, and you press it. But nothing happens for some reason.
Strider, whos outfit is shifting mysteriously between a red hoodie thing with a white gear on the front along with red pants and a very dark red cape, a mostly black full body suit with a hat that looks like a dog head, black bird wings face paint that matches the patern that cats have on their faces, fake tentacles an extremely extravagant harlequin hat a ring with four orbs on it on his finger and a fake sword designed to look like it is stabed throug his chest all as one outfit, a steryoutypical ninja outfit, a lab coat and this outfit that i can't realy explain, why is this, because his perseption of rebels is very broad, he has encounterd many rebels you see, and they where all diferent, sometimes it also breifly switches to whatever the other player characters where wearing in the real world, because the way he sees it, they are rebeling against history.
Connor's rebel outfit will be a dark blue re-color of Joker's outfit. The mask is the same as Joker's, though, besides some nigh-invisible lenses in the eye-holes.
OT: Connor tries double-pressing the button, then holding it. If both of those fail, he checks for another button.
As Connor does this, Sally crouches down next to him and lays her arm over his back as she looks to see what Connor's doing.
Connor: *jumps in surprise* "Wha-?!"
Sally: "Huh?!" "You felt that?!"
Connor: "...Apparently..."
Sally tries to lift a bit of Connor's cape to check, and to her surprise, she succeeds in doing so.
Sally: Since when could I do that as a ghost?!
Connor: "Since you came into the Metaverse?"
Both of those options fail, and Connor doesn't find another button. He quickly realizes in the eye-sockets of the statue that one eye is missing.
Connor: *pointing at empty eye socket* "...I think we're missing something over here..."
Samuel's Metaverse outfit is a extravagant, black and grey hooded overcoat with black strips of fabric trailing behind, like streamers. Samuel's mask is a white, horned half-mask covering the top half of his face, designed to look like a demon, oni, or rakshasa. White silk gloves cover Samuel's hands.
Samuel: "Think we should keep on the lookout for a matching gem. Something good has to be across that bridge, considering the security measures. Should we leave the dungeon and explore the rest of the castle?"
David: Yeah, I think we should do that. What about you guys?
Connor: "...might as well."
Samuel: "Well, if Strider doesn't have an opinion on the matter, majority says we head back upstairs. Fine by me. Let's see if we can find our way to a second story, maybe keep an eye out for the gem that fits into the statue."
The party, having reached a majority vote, decides to leave the dungeon. But on their way back up, the party almost collides with a guard. The guard doesn't notice the party's presence, though.
Samuel: Woah, that was close!
Strider: This thing's in our way... what do we do?
Connor: Well... I would say we take it down, but... alright, I think I can teach you guys something. Ready?
Fight the guard?
A: Fight it.
B: Go back.


The home side won the toss and chose to bat, but with only five runs on the board they lost the wickets of openers Boyce and Wood.
Nine runs later Hollis was caught for eight, and Steve Flowers was the only batsman to look confident, scoring 48 before he was bowled by Green.
Louis Botting was the only other batsman to reach double figures as the home side were dismissed for 113.
Uppingham started their innings, but after just two overs the rain arrived and the match had to be abandoned with Uppingham on 9-0.
Barkby: M. Boyce 0, J. Wood 0, B. Hollis 8, D. Tew 9, S. Flowers 48, B. Silver 2, L. Botting 18, C. Sharp 8, J. Johnson 2, C. Smith 9, D. Botting 0*, Extras 9. Total: 113.


It appears that Dr. Flord returned to New Orleans on the 3d of July, and that the bank subscriptions were opened. The amount is not expected to exceed $300,000 at that place. The general deficit will probably be $3,000,000, but it will be immediately supplied by companies already formed. Mr. Girard alone will take $1,000,000, if he can obtain that sum.

Penn Law pays tribute to Theodore Selden, Class of 1924 student who died in tragic train wreck
In the early 1980s, Penn Law's current Dean of Students, Gary Clinton, was working in the Registrar's Office. At one point, the files of nearly 80 years of Law School students needed to be moved, and the monotonous task fell to Clinton.
As Clinton moved the files from one room into another, one particular folder struck him. It was the file of a student from the Class of 1924 named Theodore Selden. It read: "Deceased: July 3, 1922."
Curious, Clinton opened the file and found a newspaper article inside.
The article described a train crash from 1922. One of the many victims of the crash was so badly disfigured that he was only identified by his Phi Beta Kappa key. Because of the key, the authorities first thought that "T.M. Selden / Dartmouth 1921" must have been a white passenger, not one of the African-American Pullman porters.
"I should have pulled the file aside," said Clinton, "but I didn't."
It bothered him for decades. Over the years, he forgot the name of the student and where he had gone to college, but he never forgot the story.
Then, this past summer, someone asked Clinton about a plaque at Penn Law dedicated to John Lisle. After a quick search on the internet, Clinton learned Lisle's story: the 1910 graduate of the Law School drowned while trying to save the life of another.
The ease with which Clinton found Lisle's story made him recall the story of the student killed in the train crash. He put the few pieces of information he remembered into Google and began piecing together Selden's story.
Clinton then got in touch with Dartmouth College; Penn's archivist, Mark Lloyd; and the Law School's archivist, Leslie O'Neill, and they all began compiling a history of Theodore Selden's tragically short life.
Theodore Milton Selden was born on November 22, 1898 in Norfolk, Virginia, to William Henry Selden and Georgie Anna Thoroughgood Selden.
He attended Lincoln University, a historically black university, and graduated in 1919 with a Bachelor of Science degree, finishing first in his class.
After serving as an instructor in chemistry for a year at Lincoln, he applied to transfer to Dartmouth College. He graduated second in the Class of 1921 and earned a second B.S. degree, summa cum laude. He also won the Dartmouth's Barger Gold Medal for Original Oratory, and was elected to Phi Beta Kappa.
Selden began his work in the LLB program at Penn Law in September of 1921, as a member of the Class of 1924. He was one of a small number of African-Americans who attended the Law School between 1888 and 1924.
In his 1L year, he took courses in Agency, Crimes, Civil Procedure, Torts, Property, and Contracts. His grades placed him 40th in a class of 100.
But on July 3, 1922, Selden was working as a Pullman porter on a late-night run from Philadelphia to Atlantic City. The train was misdirected on a curve and left the track at high speed. Selden was one of the seven people killed in the crash. As many as 90 were injured.
Clinton wanted to see if the faculty and administration had marked Selden's tragic death, so he asked O'Neill, the Law School's archivist, to pull the faculty minutes from September and October of 1922. But the minutes were missing.
"It's the only set of minutes that's missing," said Clinton, "and it's been missing for at least 30 years."
Because the minutes were missing, Clinton didn't know if Penn Law had ever properly mourned or honored Selden.
"I have no idea whether the faculty ever honored him, whether any mention was made that this great student — this wonderful guy, this very inspiring guy — died," said Clinton.
Selden was a student of exceptional intelligence and talent, he added. "This man is worth noting."
Thanks to the efforts of Clinton, Penn Law will properly memorialize Theodore Selden with a plaque on the second floor of Silverman Hall. It will read:
Theodore Milton Selden
LL.B. Class of 1924
Among the first African Americans to enroll at Penn Law
A student of great accomplishment and promise.
He worked as a Pullman Porter to support his education
And died in a train wreck, July 3, 1922,
His body identified by his Dartmouth College Phi Beta Kappa key.
What Might Have Been?
A train accident on July 3, 1922 killed Theodore Selden, a Penn Law student from the Class of 1924 who worked as a Pullman porter on the train.

After finishing Storm Front, I was divided if I liked it or not. It had some high points such as the pulse pounding action in chapter 1-5. Through these chapters, the reader will ride shotgun to car crashes, gun battles, a kidnapping, and a break-in.
However, with that said, the story becomes a bit stagnant when Givanni and Loriel venture to Italy under the pretense they are in a relationship. It's no wonder his family isn't buying the bull they're attempting to sell. He spends little time with her and doesn't act like a man in love. Basically, he treats her like a friend — at times more like an acquaintance. I think that's why Loriel was stunned speechless when Van admitted he was in love with her in the final chapter.
Despite the humdrum of chapter 7-14, things do pick back up in chapter 15.
I would like to say Storm Front ended with everything resolved but that's not the case. D.L. told me plans are in the works for this to become a series and, with a confusing ending, I can see why a second book is highly needed.
As for Van and Loriel, girl you should have went for Max. He is such a doll and a more likable character.
Born and raised in California, Diana developed an early love for the coastline, mountain ranges, and desert in between. Her grade school years were spent in a chaos of paper and pencils, writing stories and poems, oftentimes scattered around the sunny white farmhouse she called home. Trading flip-flops for cowboy boots, she now resides in rural Idaho with her husband Joseph and five young children.
My opinion might not be your opinion on it so you might give it a higher score. You never know unless you read it, right?
This is how I feel with reviews Kam….others may have diff opinions….I have friends, I won't touch what they read, and vice versa!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
There's s book for everyone so maybe this book will strike your fancy.
And I was trying to portray the confusion of getting to know (or think you know) another person – maybe I was a little heavy on the confusion?? LOL!
I absolutely appreciate the input and will keep this in mind as I write.
I'd be happy to take a gander at the ARC and give you my thoughts. Let me know.

Wecast Network (Nasdaq: WCST) Shares Up over 50% in Early Trading
Wecast Network, Inc. – Nasdaq: WCST
Shares of Wecast Network have been up over 50% in morning trading on heavy volumes. WCST, traded on the Nasdaq, closed yesterday at $1.58, raced to $2.43, and have now settled around the $1.80 handle as of this writing. Volumes are exceptionally heavy – average daily volumes have been less than 70,000 but are over 1.25 million at 1:30 PM EST. Last week, Wecast announced a 55% ownership stake in CA-based Wide Angle Group Limited – a sales and marketing firm that specializes in media and commerce.
China-based Wecast Network Inc. is a next generation global brand licensing, IP sales and video commerce company. The company is leveraging and optimizing its legacy operations as a premium content Video on-demand service provider in China to evolve into a global, vertical, and transactional B2B2C, mobile-driven, consumer and supply chain management platform.
On January 30, 2017, unanimously appointed Mr. Yi Xu as the Chief Operating Officer to replace Ms. Mei Chen, as well as the interim Chief Financial Officer, and principal accounting officer of the Company, effective February 4, 2017. Most recently and prior to joining the Company, Mr. Xu was the Vice President of Zhimaotong (Shanghai) International Trade Co., Ltd., a state-controlled company specializing in cross-border e-commerce. He also served as the Senior Vice President of Shanghai Kuajingtong Group, also a state-controlled company specializing in cross-border e-commerce.
Investors in WCST have seen sales rise steadily since 2013 when the company posted $300k – in 2015 that figure rose to $4.6 million. EPS, however, has never been positive for WCST. In 2014 the EPS loss was $1.47 but last year that figure improved to a smaller loss of $0.34. Investors should take note that WCST shares have a short ratio that demands attention – especially if volumes return to normal.

The agreement contains two near-term milestones, including the initial product sample and proof-of-concept in the current second quarter of fiscal 2017, and performance testing in the customer's vehicle in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017.
Sevcon has a presence in the USA, Europe, and Asia but derives most of its revenues from Europe and is based in the UK. Sevcon shares are listed on the Nasdaq and trade under ticker symbol SEV. SEV shares are very thinly traded. Prior to today the average daily volume did not exceed 9,000. However, by early afternoon trading today over 450,000 shares had traded hands and SEV has gained over 20% since Friday's close.
Knowledgeable industry sources believe the counter-party to the agreement is the Zhejiang Geely Holding Group (Geely). Geely has been one of the China's top 500 companies for ten consecutive years and has been ranked in the top 10 automobile manufacturers for eight consecutive years. They are most noted for their acquisition of Volvo in 2010. Additionally, they purchased Manganese Bronze Holdings PLC, the holding company of the company that manufactures the British Black Cabs. Geely also bought, in 2014, Emerald Automotive – a British electric car start-up manufacturer. The company boasts of over $23 billion in annual revenues.
Investors or traders should take note of the high level of institutional ownership of SEV – over 50%. Combined with the historically ultra-thin trading volumes, this is a stock that could present challenges if one wanted a quick exit while holding onto gains or minimizing losses.

Plug Power Inc. (Nasdaq: PLUG) Hits 52-Week Low
Plug Power Inc. – Nasdaq: PLUG
Shares of Latham, NY-based Plug Power Inc. hit their 52-week lows yesterday. Shares had been above $5 in early 2014 but yesterday closed at $1.02 on heavy volume. Plug Power Inc. trades on the Nasdaq under ticker PLUG and their average daily volume is over 3.7 million shares but yesterday over 11 million shares traded hands.
The price slide in PLUG comes despite improved margins on unit sales above original estimates to such blue-chip firms such as Wal-Mart, Home Depot, and BMW. Plug Power also recently announced a partnership with two Chinese firms to serve the expanding electric car market there.
Positive earnings, however, have not yet been brought to PLUG shareholders. Despite increasing sales (103.3 million in 2015), EPS has been negative for PLUG shares for the past five years – although the losses show a narrowing trend year-on-year. In 2011, PLUG EPS showed a loss of $1.46 but by 2015 that loss had narrowed to just $0.32.
Six firms follow Plug Power. Four rate PLUG shares as a "Strong Buy", and two rate the shares as a "Hold". Their consensus price estimate for PLUG is $2.38.

Ma Xiaoli, daughter of Ma Wenrui who was persecuted for being a leader of an "anti-party clique" with President Xi Jinping's father Xi Zhongxun during the 10-year turmoil, called the show a recurrence "of the culture of the Cultural Revolution" and accused it of "taking a step back in history".
Ma lashed out at organisers in a letter, accusing them of violating the Communist Party's political discipline by honouring the memory of the Cultural Revolution with the show.
"We must raise our strong vigilance against the comeback of the Cultural Revolution and [against] extreme leftist ideology making waves again," she wrote.
[…] Some people commenting online drew comparisons between the show and the campaign to promote "red culture" in Chongqing under the city's disgraced former leader Bo Xilai, who is now serving a life sentence for corruption.
There has been confusion among some members of the public over whether Monday's concert, given its high-profile location, signalled a political stance or intention in the lead-up to the 50th anniversary of the revolution.
The event was staged by the Fifty-Six Flowers troupe and the China National Opera and Dance Drama Theatre, which is directly under the Ministry of Culture.
The theatre group, which is one of the top departments in charge of performances at the hall, said it was deceived by the co-organiser.
It wasn't clear what lay behind the staging of the concert or its timing. Some observers say such a show—with its controversial content and high-profile venue—could only have come about with high-level party support.
China today is in the midst of another political fever, in the form of an anti-corruption crackdown and a harsh stifling of dissenting views. But it should not be mistaken for a replay of the Cultural Revolution. Even with thousands under arrest, the scale of suffering is of a different order, and shorthand comparisons run the risk of relieving the Cultural Revolution of its full horror. There are tactical differences as well: instead of unleashing the population to attack the Party, as Mao did in his call to "bombard the headquarters," Xi Jinping has swung in the direction of tighter control, seeking to fortify the Party and his own grip on power. He has reorganized the top leadership to put himself at the center, suffocated liberal thinking and the media, and, for the first time, pursued critics of his government even when they are living outside mainland China. In recent months, Chinese security services have abducted opponents from Thailand, Myanmar, and Hong Kong.

Professional & Financial Risks >
To each his own: which papers belong to the solicitor?
12 January 2018. Published by Claire Revell, Partner
Although it has previously been established that clients don't necessarily own all of their solicitors' file, clients don't always appreciate this when making a file request. Some recent case law provides support to solicitors when dealing with such requests.
Regular readers of this blog will remember that we have previously reported on what solicitors should do when faced with a request for their file by a client, and the Law Society Guidance as to which documents a solicitor does and doesn't have to hand over. Contrary to popular (disgruntled client) belief, it isn't simply a case of handing over every single piece of paper relating to the client's matter; some documents do actually belong to the solicitor, and they can hold on to them if they want to (disclaimer: this relates to file requests only and not to responding to requests for documents in a letter of claim or dealing with disclosure, both of which have different rules). Our previous blogs (here and here) set out the correct position in detail and provide some useful practical guidance.
However, some Claimants and their solicitors still attempt to circumvent the rules. Solicitors and their insurers will no doubt be pleased to learn that, despite this, the courts are upholding the true position, and a recent judgment may be of some assistance to those firms who are still being met with such requests from those who don't understand or want to ignore the rules. In Hanley v JC & A Solicitors, the Claimant sought delivery up of copies of parts of the file over which he had no proprietary rights. The Defendant solicitors resisted the request, and so the matter made its way to the courts. Justice prevailed and the Master said that she was "concerned by the floodgates that would likely be opened" were there to be a ruling that solicitors could be ordered to hand over their complete file, as considerable satellite litigation would likely ensue. This follows previous similar rulings in December 2017 so the courts seem to be aligned in this regard.
The specific facts of these cases may also be of interest to solicitors and their professional indemnity insurers as, in each, the Claimant sought belatedly to challenge his former solicitors' bill only after being contacted by a Claimant firm of solicitors as part of a 'marketing push'. It seems that they had not previously had any concerns over their bills until receipt of the marketing materials. There is a growing concern in the market and amongst the judiciary (as reported in the Law Society Gazette and in Green & Ors v SGI Legal LLP) that some such Claimant firms are running fishing expeditions (which are, of course, expressly prohibited by the Pre-Action Protocol for Professional Negligence), in respect of old bills in particular. Whilst fishing expeditions are something that defendant professional indemnity solicitors and insurers will regrettably be more than familiar with, it is good to know that – for now at least – the courts are supportive on this issue and the existing guidance on dealing with file requests can be followed with confidence.

H. G. Adler, the Prague-born author and friend of Elias Canetti during their London days, is well worth rediscovering. Panorama, his debut novel, written between June and November 1948, consists of ten frequently satirical panoramic pictures telling the story of Josef Kramer's life, and is unmistakably an authorial projection. He describes the sheltered upbringing of a child in a town that soon becomes identifiable as Prague, and brings to life a Bohemian village by the name of Umlowitz, the Masonic institute in Dresden-Striesen, and the »tower rooms« of a mystical Czech photographer that is known to the locals as the »Culture House«. He also portrays the forced labour camps and the concentration camps of Auschwitz and Langenstein–Zwieberge, and, at the very end, Launceston Castle in England.
H. G. Adler's book, according to the epilogue by his son Jeremy, is "perhaps the last novel of the so-called Prague school. This affiliation becomes apparent -inadvertently and unintentionally-in the name of the hero, which is reminiscent of Josef K. in Kafka's The Trial."
