I hope all of our Knighthawk families have had a great start to 2018. We are so fortunate for supportive families and awesome students that are prepared to learn each day. As the second semester is underway, we have a busy few months ahead of us. The end of the year will be here before we know it. As many of our families know, our state testing will take place in May. We will send you those dates for each grade level in the next few weeks. Our 8th grade students are starting the process of getting ready for high school by meeting with our counselors for Individual Graduation Plans. Winter sports are winding down and spring sports are getting started. To say the least, we have a lot to look forward to over the last few months of school.
Car Rider Line - Please remember that we require all parents to pull through the car rider line. Please do not pull into the front parking lot and drop off students. This is a safety risk for you and our staff as they enter the building. It also slows down our car rider line as we have to stop traffic to direct students across the cross-walk. Thank you for your understanding.
Cell Phone Policy - Electronic devices including cell phones may be brought to school and used before or after school to communicate with parents. They must be turned off and placed in the student's locker from 7:40 AM until 3:20 PM. A cell phone may not be used during the day unless an employee of PKMS gives permission, even to call or text parents. Earphone usage follows the same guidelines. Certain devices may be used in the classroom for educational purposes while under the supervision of a teacher.
Tardy Policy - Please remember that all students must be in their classroom by 8:10AM each morning. If you are dropping off students in the car rider line and you do not see an adult, please sign your student in at the front office. Adults must walk in with their child to sign them in.
Thank you again for all you do for PKMS!!!

While seasonal flu outbreaks can happen as early as October, most of the time flu activity peaks between December and February, although activity can last as late as May. It is very important to alert the school nurse if your child has been diagnosed with the flu or any other communicable diseases. This allows the nurse to keep track of the number of students in a classroom/grade level and protect others. Please keep your child at home if he or she has a fever of 100F or higher with a cough or sore throat. Other flu symptoms are fever with a runny or stuffy nose, body aches, headache, and fatigue. Children with the flu will need to stay home until the fever is gone for 24 hours without taking medicines to reduce the fever. Practice frequent hand washing as well as covering the mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing. These healthy habits will help prevent the spread of flu.
Please note: A number of students are coming to school with a high fever who report having a fever at home. Some report that they only came to school to take a test/quiz or turn in a project that was due. PLEASE, if your child is showing signs of illness and has a temperature of 100.0 or higher, they need to stay at home. The student can make up the test/quiz or projects after recovering from their illness. The student will need to be fever free for 24 hours (without taking fever-reducing medication) before returning to school.
Jeremy Blevins Race for the Cause!

Teen With Down Syndrome Is Determined To Become A Model

Teen With Down Syndrome Is Determined To Become A Model (10 photo)
Tags: Down model syndrome
18-year-old Madeline Stuart recently decided to become a model. Her story is making headlines and winning support because of one little difference, however – Maddy has Down syndrome.
Meet Maddy, an 18-year-old with Down syndrome who wants to be a model
Because she enjoys swimming and dancing, Maddy was frustrated by the extra weight she had holding her back. With the help of her mother, Rosanne, she lost 44lbs (20kg). Her new-found energy and confidence inspired her to try modeling, and her inspiring story soon found a supporter in the Living Dead label, which prides itself on signing models of diverse body types.
After she lost 44lbs (20kg) to keep healthy, she decided to start modeling
"She really wants to change the way people discriminate against disability," said Maddy's mother
"People with Down syndrome can do anything, they just do it at their own pace. Give them a chance and you will be rewarded beyond your greatest expectations"
"I think it is time people realized that people with Down syndrome can be sexy and beautiful"
"I want people to stop saying 'I'm sorry' when I tell them my daughter has Down syndrome, because it's a very naive statement"
"If the average person could see the beauty Maddy has inside, how loving and caring she is and if that is what people measured beauty on, then most of the models in the world would have Down syndrome"
"I feel so blessed to have a daughter like Maddy, I won lotto the day she was born"

Before half term, our Student Well-being team organised a non-uniform day with the intention of raising money for their chosen charity, People in Motion. Some of our Sixth Form students really got into character as they chose to dress as members of the Suffragette movement.
People in Motion: Providing aid to displaced people.
Since September 2015, People in Motion have been actively involved in sending aid throughout Europe for distribution to refugees travelling in search of a safer life. Providing many large vans filled of clothing, tents, blankets and food which have been loaded onto shipping containers bound for Syria and Greece.
The charity have also sent many volunteers over to refugee camps in France and Greece to help distribute donations and provide shelter for people there.
Although they are only in their third year of operation, the amount that they have managed to achieve in such a short period of time is inspiring.
During a whole-school assembly this morning, our Senior Student Ambassador for Charity and Well-being, Maryam, presented a cheque for £1027.53 to trustees David Bland and Anna Brook.
Sleeping bags, blankets, new underwear, warm & waterproof coats, walking boots/trainers, hats/gloves/scarves and pop-up tents.
The first collection will be on Wednesday 21st November.

This romantic city in The Netherlands is home to beautiful city gates, countless picturesque alleys and tons of historical monuments. Amersfoort, The Netherlands, is the perfect city to visit if you're looking for a bustling, charming, and at the same time a relatively quiet city centre. The city of Amersfoort is filled with cosy cafes and shops, outstanding museums and so much more. All of that makes Amersfoort one of the best cities to visit in The Netherlands.
Find a full article on what to do in Amersfoort here.
2. Breda
Province: Noord- Brabant
Where to stay: Hotel Nassau Breda
The city of Breda, The Netherlands, is a great place to visit in the southern part of the country. Breda is most famous within The Netherlands for the connection with the Dutch Royal Family Oranje- Nassau, as the Earl of Nassau ruled people from Breda from 1403 and the prince of Oranje- Nassau from 1538. Nowadays, Baron of Breda is one of the titles that the King or Queen of The Netherlands has. But, Breda is not just great to visit because of the connection to the Dutch Royals.
Breda is a fantastic home to fortifications, castles, big parks and incredibly cosy neighbourhoods. One of the things I recommend you to do in Breda is visit the Ginneken neighbourhood and explore one of the largest courtyards in The Netherlands: Begijnhof. As Breda is so beautiful and filled with things to do, it is, in my opinion, one of the best cities in The Netherlands.

Besides admiring these impressive Dutch windmills in Schiedam, you can wander along the cosy canals and historic buildings. And, you must visit the Jenevermuseum in Schiedam to learn more about this traditional Dutch drink. It's definitely one of the beautiful cities in The Netherlands you should travel to.
5. Assen
Province: Drenthe
Where to stay: City Hotel de Jonge
The capital of the Drenthe province is Assen, The Netherlands. In my opinion, Assen is a very underrated city in The Netherlands, but that counts for the entire eastern part of the country. It is one of the youngest official cities in The Netherlands as it only obtained city rights in 1809, and it became the province's capital in 1814. One of the best things to do in Assen is to bring a visit to the Drents Museum, which is home to unique archaeological and art exhibitions. I can also highly recommend you to walk around in Assen and explore the centre, around places such as Brink and Markt. Even though Assen isn't on most people's travel list, I can guarantee that it is one of the cities in The Netherlands you have to visit.
6. Gouda

Gouda, The Netherlands, is the most famous city for Dutch cheese in the country as it is the home of one of the reenactments of cheese markets in The Netherlands.

One of the things you need to do in Appingedam is visit Museum Mohlmann, which is found on the outskirts of the town inside a stunning building.

Rotterdam is everything that you could wish for in a big Dutch city: it's international, home to incredible restaurants, filled with art and architecture, as well historic buildings. Although Rotterdam, The Netherlands, was the city that was most heavily bombed during the Second World War, it has always been a resilient place due to its people, and it still is today.

That's why one of the things I recommend you to do in Almere is to go on an architecture bike tour through the city and rent a bike.

Where to stay: Hotel Katoen
Goes, The Netherlands, is an absolute dream to visit, and you cannot miss out on your Zeeland itinerary. Goes is everything you can wish for: it's filled with historic buildings, old harbours, picturesque streets, incredible galleries and cosy cafes. One of the things you have to do in Goes is visiting Historisch Museum De Bevelanden, a museum in Goes that covers the history and culture of the Dutch islands of Noord- Beveland and Zuid- Beveland. Don't forget to enjoy the city harbour (stadshaven) in Goes either, shown in the photo below. It's one of The Netherlands best cities to visit.
32. Leeuwarden
Where to stay: Boutique Hotel Catshuis
Leeuwarden, The Netherlands, is the capital of the Friesland province located in the North of the country. The city of Leeuwarden is one of the best places to visit in Friesland for a few very simple reasons. It is home to endless canals, museums such as the Fries Museum about the Friesland province, and tons more sights. Leeuwarden is a very calm city that will surprise you more with every corner you're turning. Leeuwarden is most certainly one of the cities you have to see in The Netherlands.
33. Deventer
Where to stay: Grand Boutique Hotel-Restaurant Huis Vermeer
One of the most beautiful Hanseatic cities in The Netherlands is Deventer. This spectacular city in the East of The Netherlands is home to some of the most unique shops in the entire country. But not just that, Deventer is also the perfect place to get lost in the charming and endless cobblestone streets. Deventer, The Netherlands, is genuinely one of the most magical places to visit in the country. Deventer is found in the Overijssel province and one of the cities to visit in this part of The Netherlands.

34. Dokkum
Where to stay: Hotel Dockum
Dokkum, The Netherlands, is one of the eleven Frisian cities and a great destination to explore in the country's northern parts. It's a calm and beautiful city in Friesland and known for having a cosy city centre, incredible sights and the drink 'Dokkumer Koffie'. This coffee is a mix of coffee, whipped cream and the Frisian/Gronings alcoholic drink called Beerenburg. You drink this coffee when the whipped cream is still on top of it, without stirring. You can drink the Dokkumer coffee at cafes such as Lekkernij Koffie En Lunch.
One of the other things you need to do in Dokkum is to walk through the city centre and admire the buildings, such as the city hall (Stadhuis in Dutch). As well as the windmills on the ramparts of Dokkum and admire the weighing buildings (waag), which was built in 1754, precisely 1000 years after Dokkum was found. I find Dokkum an absolute must-see if you're looking for cities in The Netherlands to travel to.
35. Bolsward
Where to stay: Het Weeshuis
The Frisian city of Bolsward is one of the eleven cities you can find in this Northern Dutch province. Bolsward, The Netherlands, is a small city but definitely worth a visit. You can walk along the cosy canals, explore one of the local shops and even go on a canal tour to get a different perspective. But there is even more to do in Bolsward, such as visiting a beer brewery, church ruins and the city hall. It's one of the best places to visit in The Netherlands.

36. Zutphen
Where to stay: Broederenklooster
What I love about the city of Zutphen, The Netherlands, is that it is home to one of the few chained medieval libraries left in the world. But that's not everything this beautiful Dutch city in Gelderland has to offer. You can wander along the charming cobblestoned streets, admire the stunning buildings and enjoy everything that Zutphen has to offer: from fortifications to local shops to museums to some of the best coffee in The Netherlands. Zutphen is one of the many cool cities we have in The Netherlands.

37. Veere
Inhabitants: 1.610
Where to stay: Auberge de Campveerse Toren
One of the smaller cities in The Netherlands is Veere. This magical Dutch city is found in the South of The Netherlands. It is, beyond being absolutely adorable, home to some fascinating Scottish and Dutch history, which can still be seen today. One of the best things to do in Veere, The Netherlands, is to visit Museum Veere. In this museum in the Zeeland province, you will discover everything about the relations of Scotland and Veere, as well as explore the history of Veere. You can easily explore everything that Veere has to offer, including its nearby lake on a boat tour and a few other activities in a day. All of that makes Veere one of the best cities in The Netherlands.
38. Kampen
Where to stay: De Stadsboerderij
Kampen, The Netherlands, is one of the amazing places to visit in the Overijssel province. It is one of the cities in The Netherlands that was part of the Hanseatic League, a group of cities that traded together from the Baltics to The Netherlands and beyond. This is one of the reasons why Kampen looks the way it does today: filled with beautiful buildings and cosy streets. One of the things you have to do in Kampen is to walk around the town and admire city gates, such as Koornmarktspoort, Broederpoort and Cellebroederspoort. You will also love visiting Stedelijk Museum Kampen, as well as Ikonenmuseum Kampen. It's definitely one of the beautiful, old cities in The Netherlands.
39. Sittard
Where to stay: Hotel De Limbourg
One of the oldest cities in the Limburg region, and The Netherlands, in Sittard. This city is filled with incredible monuments, such as dozens of monasteries, amazing ramparts and houses. Sittard has often been a city that not many Dutch people tend to visit, which is a shame, but that also means that there is more space for you to explore this great city in the Limburg region. Sittard, The Netherlands, is a great city to discover. One of the things I would recommend you to do in Sittard is to visit Museum De Domijnen to learn more about Sittard and its surroundings via art and history. Sittard is a beautiful historic Dutch city that deserves a visit.
40. Vlissingen
Where to stay: B&B Zeeuws genoegen
One of my most favourite cities is Vlissingen, The Netherlands. This city that is found in the Zeeland province is an absolute joy to visit. Vlissingen is cosy but also has an industrial and modern vibe. Whether you want to enjoy some street art in Vlissingen or want to admire the hundreds of years old buildings, this place is perfect for it. One of the things I recommend you to do in Vlissingen is visit Panorama Walcheren to see incredibly long (and beautiful paintings). Besides that, Zeeuw Maritiem MuZeeum is also fantastic to visit in Vlissingen. The Zeeland province is filled with amazing cities to visit and offers the best of the South of The Netherlands.
41. Roosendaal
Where to stay: Hotel Tongerlo
Roosendaal is one of those cities that people tend to skip when they visit The Netherlands. Now, I can't blame anyone for that because even Dutch people tend to do that. One of the things I would recommend you to do in Roosendaal, The Netherlands, is to visit the historic area around the Markt. But there is more to see as Roosendaal is also filled with cool museums. Visit the Tongerlohuys in Roosendaal, for instance, which tells you the story about Roosendaal through five different perspectives. While it's not one of the major Dutch cities in the country, it is definitely bustling.

42. Maastricht
Where to stay: Hotel Britannique
Whether Maastricht, The Netherlands, or Nijmegen is the oldest city in the country is an endless argument, but both are amazing to visit. Maastricht is the best city in the south of The Netherlands to explore the traditional Burgundian lifestyle. Maastricht is home to amazing, picturesque neighbourhoods with hundreds of monumental buildings and interesting museums, incredible local food, and so much more. Visiting Maastricht feels like you're in a completely different country and helps you remember how diverse this tiny country actually is. Maastricht is the perfect example to discover what you can see in The Netherlands.

43. Nijmegen
Where to stay: Hotel Karel
Nijmegen, The Netherlands, is the oldest city in the country: although it is always a battle between Maastricht and Nijmegen. It is located on the edge of one of the largest rivers in The Netherlands, which means you can find amazing river beaches here to enjoy on a hot summer day as well. Besides the fact that Nijmegen is an old Dutch city, it is also home to the oldest and one of the longest shopping streets in The Netherlands. Plus, the city is filled with fascinating museums, bustling cafes and other amazing things to do. The Gelderland province is filled with unique cities, so I would definitely recommend you to visit this area in The Netherlands.

44. Arnhem
Where to stay: Hotel Molendal
One of The Netherlands greenest cities has to be Arnhem. This charming Dutch city is found in the Gelderland region and surrounded by big estates and nature reserves. Arnhem was the location of one of the most talked-about battles during the Second World War, which means that there is plenty of history to explore. But, you can also enjoy fantastic street art, excellent local shops, a beautiful view from the main church and plenty of other things in Arnhem, The Netherlands. Arnhem is one of The Netherlands relatively big cities, but it still feels small and cosy.
Find a full article on what to do in Arnhem here.
45. Zierikzee
Where to stay: de Zeeuwse Hemel
The incredible city of Zierikzee, The Netherlands, is one of the best places to visit in the country's southwestern part. Not only is Zierikzee absolutely stuffed with monuments, such as old city gates, but it is also found in the most beautiful region of the Zeeland province. One of the things you need to do in Zierikzee is visit the Gravesteen building, a brick house that an Earl owned, and it is also the oldest prison in Zeeland. Tours through this remarkable building in Zeeland starts every Wednesday and Saturday at 14:30 at the Stadhuismuseum. The Stadhuismuseum itself is also definitely worth a visit. I think it is one of the nicest cities in The Netherlands.
46. Sneek
Where to stay: Stadslogement By Peek
Sneek, The Netherlands, is one of the eleven official cities that you can find in the province of Friesland. These eleven are historical, medieval trading cities in the North of The Netherlands and are a sight to behold. Sneek is most famous for its watergate (waterpoort in Dutch), an old monument that stands in the middle of the centre of Sneek. Besides that, you will find plenty of more things to see and do in Sneek. One of the things I recommend you do in Sneek is rent a boat or a canoe. You can hire them between April and October, and you can book via their website or sent them an email for any questions you might have. It's definitely one of the most charming cities in The Netherlands.

47. Almelo
Where to stay: de Opkamer
Another stunning city in the East is Almelo, The Netherlands. Walking through Almelo is interesting, as it boasts many different sorts of architecture and in the centre of the town you can even find a big estate, which is impressive. You cannot visit Huize Almelo itself, but you can discover the forests of this beautiful estate in the East of The Netherlands. Another thing I recommend you to do in Almelo is to visit Stadsmuseum Almelo to explore the history of Almelo and how it has evolved, as well as witnessing interesting changing exhibitions. Because Almelo is relatively small and cosy, I find it's one of the best cities in The Netherlands to live in.
48. Den Helder
Where to stay: Forest Hotel
People often only head to the city of Den Helder, The Netherlands, to take the boat to the island of Texel. And that is a true shame. Den Helder used to be a city with a bad reputation due to crime, amongst other things. But, nowadays, Den Helder is blooming again, and it's great. Den Helder is home to the Dutch navy and has always been an important maritime city in The Netherlands. One of the things you need to do in Den Helder is visit the old shipyard of Willemsoord, which is filled with unique monuments, local shops, and so much more. I can also recommend you to visit fortresses in Den Helder that belong to the defence line of Den Helder, which was expanded to its current size during the time of the French occupation in The Netherlands. If you visit Noord (North)- Holland and want to visit cities in The Netherlands, Den Helder is an excellent option.
49. Doesburg
Where to stay: B&B Het Atelier
If you ask me what one of the most fairytale-like cities in The Netherlands is, I will probably answer with Doesburg. Doesburg, The Netherlands, is one of the many Hanseatic cities that we have in the country. This means it is filled with amazing buildings and so many fun things to do. One of the things you need to do in Doesburg is visit cafe Stadsbierhuys De Waag, which is said to be the oldest (or the second) oldest catering facility in The Netherlands as it has existed since somewhere in the 15th century. I can also recommend you visit Doesburgsche Mosterd- en Azijnfabriek, as Doesburg is very famous for its mustard amongst other delicious local goods. I find Doesburg one of the best cities to visit in The Netherlands in spring, but it is also fantastic to see during any other time of the year.
50. Apeldoorn
Where to stay: Het Oude Kantongerecht
Apeldoorn, The Netherlands, is one of the greenest cities in The Netherlands. Apeldoorn is filled with city parks, typical houses from the city and not many high buildings. While it's a moderately sized city in Gelderland, most parts of it feels like a village. One of the things you need to do in Apeldoorn is to visit Natuurpark Berg & Bos, as well as visiting Paleis Het Loo. Paleis Het Loo is one of the largest Royal palaces we have in The Netherlands and is breathtaking, so are its gardens. When you're walking through the gardens, it feels like you've just entered an old fairy tale. Apeldoorn is one of the larger cities in The Netherlands, but still nothing major.
51. Amsterdam
Where to stay: The Student Hotel Amsterdam West
The Netherlands most popular city to visit is, without a doubt, Amsterdam. Every year the capital of The Netherlands gets millions of visitors, while it's home to not even a million people. This means that a part of Amsterdam, mainly the extreme city centre, is mostly filled with tourists. However, luckily Amsterdam has more to offer than trying to worm your way through the crowds. The city of Amsterdam exists out of countless neighbourhoods that all have something else to offer, and in most of them, you don't find many visitors, and that's where you will find the city's real charm. Amsterdam, The Netherlands, is a beautiful place to visit, especially if you're looking to visit the largest city in the country and want to see for yourself what all the fuss is about. Amsterdam is one of the most popular cities in The Netherlands, but also for a reason.

52. Helmond
Where to stay: Villa Rubenshof
You probably are aware of the existence of the cube houses in Rotterdam, but did you know that they were first made in the city of Helmond, The Netherlands? These were also designed by architect Piet Blom and can be found at Piet Blomplein in Helmond. One of the other things to do in Helmond is to visit Castle Helmond to explore the largest moated castle in The Netherlands and why it was crucial for Helmond. Helmond is a city that is actually very underrated but is filled with great places to visit. And all of that is why I think it's one of the best cities in The Netherlands.
53. Heerlen
Where to stay: Stadshotel Botterweck
Heerlen, The Netherlands, is one of the best places to visit in the country to explore amazing street art. It seems like every corner of the city is filled with incredible art that will blow your mind. Heerlen is a city that feels relatively young but is actually a lot older than you might think since the Romans settled here roughly 2000 years ago. One of the things you need to do in Heerlen is to visit the Thermenmuseum, which tells you about Heerlen during the Roman Empire. While Heerlen is not one of the big cities in The Netherlands, it is actually a great place to travel to.
54. Enkhuizen
Where to stay: Herberg de Compagnie
Another great city to visit is Enkhuizen. Enkhuizen, The Netherlands, is located on the shores of one of the country's biggest lakes: IJsselmeer. This historic Dutch city is the perfect combination of calm and bustling at the same time. It is home to one of The Netherlands most famous tourist attractions: the open-air museum Zuiderzeemuseum, which showcases the life of people around the former Zuiderzee (sea that is now turned into the Markermeer and IJsselmeer lakes). If you're not interested in getting an insight into these small Dutch cultures, there is still plenty to see and explore in Enkhuizen. Admire the beautiful buildings, wander through its charming streets and sit down at one of the many cosy Dutch cafes. Enkhuizen is one of the cities in the Holland region, The Netherlands, that you cannot miss out on.

55. Haarlem
Where to stay: the niu Dairy
The city of Haarlem, The Netherlands, is another charming Dutch city that you can find in this beautiful country. It is located in the western part of The Netherlands and filled with everything that you're looking for in a city when you visit. In Haarlem, you can find picturesque canals, amazing buildings, local shops and cafes, and so much more. Maybe you want to visit one of The Netherlands most exciting art museums or simply want to wander around and enjoy the city. Whatever you want to see in Haarlem, there is something cool to do for everyone. Haarlem is one of the main cities in The Netherlands that everyone knows, but that isn't overrun.

Best small towns to visit in The Netherlands
I hope you will enjoy visiting the best cities in The Netherlands and that you've enjoyed exploring what kind of cities there are in The Netherlands. If you had the question 'how many cities are there in The Netherlands?', then I won't be able to answer that. The reason? Many places with city rights (due to history) in this country are tiny and a part of either my village or small town article. The exact number of cities depends on the way you measure a city.
Whether you're walking through the biggest cities in The Netherlands or a smaller one, I love how the vibes are immaculate no matter where you are. You could be exploring Zuid (South)- Holland and its cities in this part of The Netherlands or one of the richest cities in The Netherlands, and it's all great. Although we don't have really rich cities in this country, there are more small towns and small villages with a higher modal income than most people in cities.
Anyway, I hope you will enjoy spending some time in whichever city has your preference: from the cheapest cities in The Netherlands to cities with canals in The Netherlands. And whether you want to explore Amsterdam and nearby cities or cities near Utrecht, there is something to enjoy for you here. Share this post!

Leonard N. Bebchick, Washington, DC, was on the Request for Payment of Fees and Expenses for the Security Trust Company, N.A.

Dowdey, Washington, DC, for Democratic Central Committee of the District of Columbia, et al., petitioners in Nos. 21865 and 24398 and with whom Gilbert Hahn, Jr., Washington, DC, for the Black United Front, et al., petitioner in No. 24428, were on the Objection to the Request for Fees and Expenses.
John Payton, Corporation Counsel for the District of Columbia, with whom Charles L. Reischel, Deputy Corporation Counsel, and Lutz Alexander Prager, Assistant Deputy Corporation Counsel, Washington, DC, for the District of Columbia, petitioner in No. 24415, were on the Response to the Request for Fees.
Before: BUCKLEY and RANDOLPH, Circuit Judges, and MACKINNON, Senior Circuit Judge.
Opinion for the Court filed PER CURIAM.
PER CURIAM:
The Security Trust Company, N.A. ("Trust Company"), Escrow Agent/Depositary for the Riders' Fund ("Agent"), has applied to the court to authorize the Riders' Fund to pay the following billings for attorneys' services rendered and expenses incurred in 1993 for the benefit of the Riders' Fund:1
The application details the expenses and services rendered. The District of Columbia has filed a response entitled "Bebchick Request for Fees" that objects to some fees and expenditures in subject billings and approves others. The Trust Company filed a Reply to the objections. Messrs. Hahn and Dowdey have also filed an objection to the "Bebchick Request for Fees and Expenses."
Since we are very familiar with the services of the attorneys, and the court approved their employment and fee schedules when they were employed, the court upon consideration of the Application, the Response, the Objections and the Reply filed by the Trust Company generally approves the billings with a few comments.
THE OBJECTIONS
With respect to the Response of the District of Columbia and the reference in the Objections by Messrs. Hahn and Dowdey we first note that it is erroneous to entitle such pleadings as "Bebchick's" Request for Fees. The Request is by the Trust Company, the Escrow Agent/Depositary of the Riders' Fund charged with the responsibility for collecting some $5 million from D.C. Transit and enforcing the judgment it has obtained against D.C. Transit.
THE OBJECTION TO PAYING THE ATTORNEYS' BILLINGS
The District of Columbia objects to $2,155.75 of the $19,689.47 billings by the Cooter Law Firm, employed as specialists in Maryland real estate law and foreclosures, for: inter-office communications, unidentified telephone consultations and insufficiently documented hours (arbitrary 10%--$1,800.00), billings for support staff, copying ($99.50), facsimile transmissions ($37.50) and messenger fees ($218.75).
The District also objects to $1,504.98 of the $17,406.28 in billings by "The Hazel and Thomas" firm, employed as specialists in bankruptcy law and creditor's rights, for: unexplained telephone conferences with Mr. Bebchick, an arbitrary 5% of the time spent drafting a complaint and discovery involving "apparent" redundancy and insufficiently documented hours ($561.16), time spent "perusing classified ads in the Washington Times for foreclosure notices" ($875.00), alleged triple billing for subscription to Washington Times ($61.17) and copying ($7.65).
Messrs. Hahn and Dowdey also filed "Objections to the 'Bebchick' Request for Fees and Expenses."
With respect to the billings by the Cooter Law Firm for "in house messenger services" totaling $218.75: These billings were incurred in the transport of legal documents from the District of Columbia and (a) their filing in the Circuit Court in Upper Marlboro, Maryland and (b) deliveries of original and oversized real estate materials between locations in the District of Columbia and those in Montgomery and Prince George's Counties, Maryland. These filings were all in connection with the real estate foreclosures on behalf of the Riders' Fund. The Cooter firm employed a driver skilled in effecting court filings. Trust Company Reply to Response of District of Columbia, Dec. 27, 1993, at 5-6. We do not consider that any adjustment is necessary with respect to this billing. This is not a function of a "support staff." Cf. In re Olson, 884 F.2d 1415, 1426-27 (D.C. Cir. 1989).
We reject the objection by the District based on the contention that the billing for checking the real estate foreclosure notices in the Washington Times was completely unnecessary and should be eliminated in its entirety. With Transit having so many judgment creditors, and such substantial sums being involved, we consider it to be very important to have the foreclosure notices checked by a person with thorough knowledge of foreclosure procedures and real estate law. This is not a mere clerical function.
We also completely reject the objection to the Hazel billing that the District characterizes as $61.17 in "triple billing" for subscriptions to the Washington Times. Subscriptions for newspapers run consecutively and are cumulative--if one pays for a further subscription while one subscription is running, it merely extends the existing subscription.
RISK OF NON-PAYMENT
The District of Columbia also contends that a provision of "the settlement [Compromise A]greement ... largely governs this litigation" and that "counsel should continue to share some of the risk of litigation." They cite a provision of the putative Compromise Agreement that provided:
No other attorney's fees or expenses [other than the $1,000,000.00 provided] will be paid or payable to any of the parties hereto out of the funds provided by the Compromise Agreement [for the collection of the $5,000,000.00 remaining unpaid].
(Emphasis added). This is a restriction on paying additional attorneys' fees or expenses to "any of the parties hereto " (emphasis added), in addition to the $1 million that the Compromise Agreement provided would have been paid to Hahn and Dowdey had they been successful in collecting the remaining $5 million due the Riders' Fund. The limitation of this provision to the "parties thereto" refers to the Democratic Central Committee, et al., for their attorneys' fees or the other parties to the case for their attorneys' fees. The Trust Company was not a party to the case or the Compromise Agreement. Others who might necessarily be employed to collect the remaining $5,000,000.00, or to protect the Riders' Fund, are not restricted by this provision.
Secondly, because Transit failed to pay the remaining $5 million in restitution, the provision of the Compromise Agreement with respect to the payment and restrictions on the payment of attorneys' fees to "parties (t)hereto," never became effective--its provisions never came into effect--and that portion of the Agreement is not binding on the court. The court, however, in certain instances has generally followed some of the provisions of the Agreement in circumstances where it was reasonable to do so.2
The court thus rejects the contention that a portion of the fees of counsel for the Trust Company should be held back and that counsel be required to share the risk of litigation. The Trust Company as Agent retained counsel and they are not engaged in contingent fee litigation. They are not in a position of sharing in a percentage of recovery as in contingent representation. The court approved the purpose of their employment and the rate of their compensation prior to the time that they were employed.
For the above reasons we therefore find no basis for imposing the "risk of non-payment" on attorneys presently employed by the Trust Company.
APPLICATION OF IN RE OLSON
The District of Columbia cites In re Olson, 884 F.2d 1415 (D.C. Cir. 1989), in support of some of its objections. That case was decided in 1989 by the Special Division of the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit for the Appointment of Independent Counsels. However, In re Olson and this case are distinguishable, particularly in the detailed knowledge that was currently furnished to this court which supports the billings. During the progress of this litigation this court timely acquired specific knowledge that makes it unnecessary for attorneys in their billings to submit the same detail of the subject of their conferences and consultations as if the court were learning for the first time what happened over a past six-year period. Olson involved a request for attorneys' fees and costs of $1,259,072.69 for a non-indicted defendant in a protracted Independent Counsel investigation that began on March 10, 1983. The Special Division of the court did not acquire any knowledge of the extent or nature of the attorneys' services in Olson until the subject of the investigation filed his application for fees six years after the case began.
Whereas here, the Trust Company, as set forth in the margin,3 made timely periodic reports to the court on the progress of litigation and the services being rendered by counsel. The court is thus very familiar with the subject of communications and consultations between counsel, and the progress and difficulty of the litigation in which they are involved, without having the subject matter of each consultation detailed for every communication and expenditure.
This case is therefore distinguishable from Olson in the extensive knowledge of the nature of the attorneys' services being furnished that this court acquired as the case progressed. In addition the Trust Company is acting pursuant to an order of the court and this court, as heretofore stated, approved the purpose of the employment of the Trust Company's outside counsel and their schedule of compensation prior to their employment.
Moreover, we consider the $5,000 and $3,500 average fees per month for the Cooter and Hazel firms respectively to be reasonable in light of the difficulties of their litigation and the specialized services rendered with which we are familiar from the periodic reports. In addition the Vice President of the Trust Company in charge of overseeing the Riders' Fund reviewed and approved the billings as fair and reasonable in amount and substantiated the performance of the subject billings submitted herewith. Trust Company Reply to Response of District of Columbia, Dec. 27, 1993, at 8 n. 5.
The District of Columbia government also apparently overlooks that the Compromise Agreement provided that $1 million in fees were to be paid as attorneys' fees for the collection of the $5 million remaining unpaid and that the Trust Company has been very successful in enforcing the rights of the Riders' Fund.4 Having already collected over $350,000 in rents from the Brookland Garage, obtained a judgment against D.C. Transit for $4,976,000, obtained title by foreclosure to various real properties in the District of Columbia, Montgomery and Prince George's Counties previously owned by D.C. Transit, obtained $3,900,000 by discounting the collateral notes on the Navy Yard property and filed a comprehensive fraud suit against the Chalks, D.C. Transit and the FDIC.
It is accordingly ordered that the Trust Company pay the billings of the Cooter ($19,689.47) and Hazel firms ($17,406.28) and charge the Riders' Fund therefor.
Judgment accordingly.

Druidheachd asked what value of capacitor will stop a 110 volt Ac power supply from killing the on-off switch?
I have a 110 volt AC to 13.8 DC power supply that eats on-off switches like a baby eats candy. What value of capacitor across the switch will stop this?
Try a 0.005 µF 1000 volt cap. And get a better grade of switch. The cap won't protect against the high initial surge current that the supply generates. If you can't get a better switch, use a good relay driven by the switch. .

Steve Crown, a general partner of Chicago's dynastic Henry Crown & Co., and his wife sold a six-bedroom Winnetka home for $2.43 million.
The sale of the house on Pine Tree Lane closed Aug. 5 at that price, according to a sale sheet filed by listing agent Paige Dooley of the Hudson Co. The property was on the market in 2013, with an asking price that started at $3.75 million and dropped to just under $3.2 million. It came back on the market in June at just under $2.5 million.
Steve and Nancy Crown paid $2.75 million for the house in 2007, according to the Cook County Recorder of Deeds. They bought the house and its half-acre lot through a venture registered to Mr. Crown at his office.
Ms. Dooley's listing, which is no longer on her website, described the house as a "timeless stylized Nantucket shingle home." She did not respond to a request for comment.
Mr. Crown's grandfather, Henry, co-founded Material Service Corp. in 1919. Forty years later the firm was worth $100 million and merged with General Dynamics Corp. By the time of his death in 1990, the billionaire's family interests had owned the Empire State Building, Maytag Corp. and numerous other assets.
Henry Crown's son, Lester Crown, is Steve Crown's father. Steve Crown did not respond to a request for comment.


U.S. regulators said Wednesday they are considering an immediate ban on flavored e-cigarettes, as the Food and Drug Administration chief warned of an "epidemic" of vaping among youths.
Manufacturers offer and market e-cigarette flavors that appeal to minors, including candy, bubble gum, and fruit flavors.
These levels of nicotine are highly addictive, particularly to the developing brains of children and teenagers. But it's not clear how quickly the decision could be reversed.
"The legal standard for FDA premarket review of a new tobacco product includes consideration of whether the product would be appropriate for the protection of the public health".
"The agency is asking each company to submit to FDA within 60 days plans describing how they will address the widespread youth access and use of their products", the FDA said in a release. The FDA may also limit the sale of certain flavored products, Gottlieb said. And it highlighted e-cigarettes' role as a way for adult smokers to transition off cigarettes. The upshot could be less switching and therefore more smoking-related deaths. In a statement, they called for support for their bipartisan legislation, introduced in July, which would ban flavored cigars and place stringent controls on e-juice flavorings. They're generally considered a less unsafe alternative to regular cigarettes.
Other studies have indicated that while e-cigarettes may have milder effects on the lungs, they are just as bad - if not worse - for the cardiovascular system, raising risks of heart disease and high blood pressure.
To the extent that teenagers who otherwise would be smoking are vaping instead, that is an unambiguous gain in public health terms, since the latter habit is much less risky.
But the FDA said it is also investigating whether e-cigarette manufacturers have introduced new products after August 8, 2016, without premarket authorization.
The agency plans to issue data showing "substantial increase" in youth using e-cigarettes - otherwise known as vaping - this year compared with 2017.
The ability of manufacturers to prevent underage consumption is, in any case, pretty limited.
"The FDA should immediately move to regulate flavored e-cigarettes, instead of waiting until 2022, as it is now planning to do", Bloomberg said in a statement. A government-commissioned report in January found "substantial evidence" that young people who use e-cigarettes are more likely to try cigarettes. If underage consumption does not justify a ban on tobacco cigarettes (and I don't think it does), it can not possibly justify a ban on competing products that are much safer.
Dr Gottlieb acknowledged that the toughened approach would force "hard trade-offs" when it comes to promoting e-cigarettes to adults.
The FDA said it remains committed to exploring e-cigarettes as a less-harmful alternative for adult smokers, but Gottlieb added "that work can't come at the expense of kids". Gottlieb would be on much firmer ethical ground if he took the opposite position: In trying to stop teenagers from vaping, we won't deny adult smokers access to products that could save their lives.
When the 90kg behemoth was found, it took three people to lift it on to a utility vehicle so it could be hauled to surface. That's more than 560 pounds (255 kilograms), or $10 million of gold if you want to just cash it in.
Overall, compared with Harvey and Irma, Maria saw more funds loaned to homeowners rather than business owners. He added that it was unclear why the remainder sat on the runway for almost four months.
While many students told FOX 5 they agree with the decision, one student athlete tells us he still supports Kaepernick. Meanwhile, voters said they approve Nike's decision to include Kaepernick in its ad campaign by 49-37 percent.

New endermology®-patented - technology effective technique for faster skin stimulation.
A superior method for reducing cellulite and scarring as well as bodysculpting.
Gives you a smoother more fit skin as well as relieves muscle and joint pain.
The technology is developed and patented by LPG Systems in France. The method was invented by Louis Paul Guitay (LPG), who int the end of the 1970's was involved in a car crasch. The accident caused severe burns. The damage was massaged daily for 3-4 hours by therapist to soften the skin and restore muscle function. The massage gave good results but took way too long , so Louis Paul Guitay invented a machine that replaced the manual massage.
The machine was also used on other patients and after further development and new research, it was found that the technique also significantly increased the blood circulation in the skin, lymphatic drainage and reduced cellulite.
This medical breakthrough was possible thanks to a unique patented technique with rollers and vakuum suction that massages the skin. The method is a non-surgical and painless massage that improves blood circulation, increases lymph drainage and improves skin condition from top to toe.
The method is the world's first patented technology for treating cellulite, and it's the first cellulite treatment that has been approved by the FDA in the United States.
This Endermology®/LPG machine, recommended by plastic surgeons and dermatologists worldwide, has shown incredible results.
Densificated connective tissue combined with poor blood and lymph circulation is the most common cause for the body forming so-called cellulite. The inelastic anchoring points (septa) of the skin, pulls the skin into underlying tissue, and between these the swollen fat cells and the excess fluid bends. This gives the skin an orange-like appearance. The decreased blood / lymph circulation contributes to a collection of metabolic slag products, metabolic degradation and connective tissue densification. Elasticity deteriorates and calluses can occur in the tissue. This results in areas with fat collections and cellulites that do not respond to bodily exercise or strict diet.
The treatment affects the fat cells into lipolysis, which means that they release stored energy. This makes the fat cells smaller and the fat deposits shrink. This in turn promotes continued circulation and a long-term result. Collagen and elastin in the skin are also positively affected and this results in a smoother and firmer skin. Endermology also has an relaxing effect through it's stress relieving and softening effect.
Before and after surgery. Even before and after liposuction or abdominal surgery, treatment is effective. Prior to surgery, to improve circulation in fat deposits and to speed up the healing process when you do not have slag and poison in the tissue. After, to drain the fluid and reduce swelling and pain. At a later stage, the method can be used to reduce any unevenness that may occur in conjunction with liposuction.
How does the treatment work? Each treatment lasts for about 35 minutes and the results can be seen after about 5-8 times. A basic treatment for cellulites is 14-20 times and is performed twice a week. The treatment result can then be maintained approximately 1 time per month. The number of treatments is individual and depends on body type, physics and eating habits. Continuity and dedication in terms of diet and exercise are important to maintain the results.
Please, do not hesitate to contact us, we will be happy to answer your questions about the Endermology method.

Milestone reached in reducing water pollution: New dishwasher detergent rules now in effect
Starting July 1, 2010 all dishwasher detergent sold in Massachusetts must be nearly phosphate-free, eliminating a significant source of phosphorus in wastewater. Phosphorus acts like Miracle-Gro when it enters our rivers and lakes, causing dense algae and aquatic weed growth which smothers aquatic life and is unsightly and smelly. Of the phosphorus found in municipal wastewater, dishwashing detergent accounts for 9 to 34 percent. Wastewater treatment plants and septic systems remove some phosphorus, but if less goes in, then less has to be removed, saving municipalities money and protecting our water resources.
Phosphate-free laundry detergent was required in the 1970s in response to severe water pollution problems, but not until February 2008 did the Massachusetts legislature require retailers to sell only dishwasher detergent containing less than 0.5% phosphate. Some dishwasher detergents contain up to 9% phosphate. OAR has advocated for a phosphate ban for over a decade, and many of the watershed's elected representatives have actively supported the legislation, spearheaded by former State Senator Pam Resor. This summer, dishwasher detergent phosphate bans also took effect in 15 other states. So when you go to the supermarket, check that they are complying with the new rules. In addition to existing eco-detergents, traditional manufacturers have developed new formulas to comply with the law. For news coverage see: http://bit.ly/9w3eZp.
Check the label to ensure that you are low phosphate (<0.5%) detergent. By the end of July 2010 not all stores had yet complied with the new regulations: http://www.consumerworld.org/pages/dishwasherprs.htm
Other phosphorus sources to think about:
Significant quantities of nutrients are also carried into our three rivers and tributary streams from lawns, streets, and parking lots by storm water runoff.
Another source of phosphorus in your household is food waste, that is the scraps of food you wash down your sink and especially the food ground up in a food disposal or "pig," if you have one. Instead of sending this phosphorus-rich material to your community's wastewater treatment plant, compost it!
