This paper aims to provide a novel explorative perspective on fund managers' decisions under uncertainty. The current COVID pandemic is used as a unique reference frame to study how heuristics are used in institutional financial practice.
This study follows a grounded theory approach. A total of 282 diverse publications between October 2019 and October 2020 for 20 German mutual funds are qualitatively analyzed. A theory of adaptive heuristics for fund managers is developed.
Fund managers adapt their heuristics during a crisis and this adaptive process flows through three stages. Increasing complexity in the environment leads to the adaption of simplest heuristics around investment decisions. Three distinct stages of adaption: precrisis, uncertainty and stabilization emerge from the data.
This study's data is based on publicly available information. There might be a discrepancy between publicly stated and internal reasoning.
Money managers can use the provided framework to assess their decision-making in crises. The developed adaptive processes of heuristics can assist capital allocators who choose and rate fund managers. Policymakers and regulators can learn about the aspects of investor decisions that their actions and communication address. Teaching can use this study to exemplify the nature of financial markets as adaptive systems rather than static structures.
To the best of the author's/authors' knowledge, this study is the first to systematically explore the heuristics of professional money managers because they navigate a large-scale exogenous crisis.

Social Heuristics: The Pragmatics of Convention in Decision-Making

Following Philip Selznick's lead in using pragmatist social science to understand issues of public concern we conducted a study of failed innovation in the commercial construction industry (CCI). We find that social heuristics – collectively constructed and maintained interpretive decision-making frames – significantly shape economic and non-economic decision-making practices. Social heuristics are the outcome of industry-based "institutionalization processes" and are widely held and commonly relied on in CCI to reduce uncertainty endemic to decision-making; they provide actors with both a priori and ex post facto justifications for economic decisions that appear socially rational to industry co-participants. In the CCI – a project-centered production network – social heuristics as shared institutions sustain network-based social order but in so doing discourage novel technologies and impede innovation. Social heuristics are actor-level constructs that reflect macro-level institutional arrangements and networked production relations. The concept of social heuristics offers the promise of developing a genuinely social theory of individual economic choice and action that is historically informed, contextually situated, and neither psychologically nor structurally reductionist.

The Role of Heuristics and Biases in Entrepreneurial Decision-making When Creativity is a Necessity
Sid Hanna Saleh and Richard A. Hunt

When entrepreneurs create new ventures, they struggle with making consequential decisions under severe restrictions such as tight deadlines, limited resources, and lack of information. Making challenging decisions inherently requires creativity as entrepreneurs improvise and work around the limitations they face. Under these conditions, entrepreneurs resort to their heuristics and biases instead of rational decision models. Entrepreneurs employ – sometimes for better and sometimes for worse – a myriad of rule-setting heuristics and experience-based biases to navigate the difficult path between novelty and utility. In this chapter, the authors answer Shepherd, Williams, and Patzelt's (2015) call for research into how entrepreneurs leverage heuristics and biases in decision-making and the benefits they gain as a result. The authors explore how entrepreneurs introduce heuristics and biases at different stages of their decision-making process using a qualitative study of 21 new ventures. The results attest to entrepreneurs' ingenuity and creativity in managing complexity, ambiguity, and uncertainty.

Business Modelling as Configuring Heuristics

While recent research has referred to a cognitive view on "business modelling," it remains unclear in specifying the cognitive foundations of how such modelling happens. This paper proposes building on heuristics as models of individual cognition, which have proved effective foundations of adaptive individual and managerial behaviors. By also drawing on gestalt theory to specify principles of modelling as rule-based form giving, we propose business modelling as a managerial cognitive process of configuring heuristics. The paper makes three contributions. First, we introduce heuristics to the business modelling literature and so provide an established theory of adaptive individual behavior that strengthens the cognitive foundations of business modelling. Second, we conceptualize and theorize on the cognitive activity of business modelling as an iterative process of configuring heuristics by applying gestalt principles. Although the literature on business models has referred to the theories of configurations and gestalt, it has been left to this work to make the theoretical linkages between heuristics, gestalt theory and business modelling explicit. Third, our work contributes to the micro-foundations of the cognitive processes underlying business modelling and thus to broader accounts of adaptive managerial behaviors.

The way organizations cope with uncertainty in strategic decision making is prominently discussed. Concepts such as heuristics and simple rules are gaining increasing attention in strategic management research. However, despite their importance, little is known how heuristics and simple rules operate. Our qualitative study reveals that, first, strategic decisions consist of three basic elements: single rules, rule patterns, and emotional handling. Second, we find that firms develop generalizable rule patterns which follow a sequential order of inter-linked rules. Based on the findings we introduce the concept of organizational heuristics as inter-linked rule patterns drawing on organizational experience.

The role of cognitive heuristic-driven biases in investment management activities and market efficiency: a research synthesis

This article aims to systematically review the literature published in recognized journals focused on cognitive heuristic-driven biases and their effect on investment management activities and market efficiency. It also includes some of the research work on the origins and foundations of behavioral finance, and how this has grown substantially to become an established and particular subject of study in its own right. The study also aims to provide future direction to the researchers working in this field.
For doing research synthesis, a systematic literature review (SLR) approach was applied considering research studies published within the time period, i.e. 1970–2021. This study attempted to accomplish a critical review of 176 studies out of 256 studies identified, which were published in reputable journals to synthesize the existing literature in the behavioral finance domain-related explicitly to cognitive heuristic-driven biases and their effect on investment management activities and market efficiency as well as on the origins and foundations of behavioral finance.
This review reveals that investors often use cognitive heuristics to reduce the risk of losses in uncertain situations, but that leads to errors in judgment; as a result, investors make irrational decisions, which may cause the market to overreact or underreact – in both situations, the market becomes inefficient. Overall, the literature demonstrates that there is currently no consensus on the usefulness of cognitive heuristics in the context of investment management activities and market efficiency. Therefore, a lack of consensus about this topic suggests that further studies may bring relevant contributions to the literature. Based on the gaps analysis, three major categories of gaps, namely theoretical and methodological gaps, and contextual gaps, are found, where research is needed.
The skillful understanding and knowledge of the cognitive heuristic-driven biases will help the investors, financial institutions and policymakers to overcome the adverse effect of these behavioral biases in the stock market. This article provides a detailed explanation of cognitive heuristic-driven biases and their influence on investment management activities and market efficiency, which could be very useful for finance practitioners, such as an investor who plays at the stock exchange, a portfolio manager, a financial strategist/advisor in an investment firm, a financial planner, an investment banker, a trader/broker at the stock exchange or a financial analyst. But most importantly, the term also includes all those persons who manage corporate entities and are responsible for making their financial management strategies.
Currently, no recent study exists, which reviews and evaluates the empirical research on cognitive heuristic-driven biases displayed by investors. The current study is original in discussing the role of cognitive heuristic-driven biases in investment management activities and market efficiency as well as the history and foundations of behavioral finance by means of research synthesis. This paper is useful to researchers, academicians, policymakers and those working in the area of behavioral finance in understanding the role that cognitive heuristic plays in investment management activities and market efficiency.

This paper aims to provide a wide picture of studies on heuristics for international decision-making with a focus on foreign market entry. This paper systematically reviews studies published in the international business and international marketing domain to examine heuristically based decisions for foreign market entry.
This paper proposes a systematic literature review and an in-depth analysis of 32 papers published between 1997 and 2021 dealing with foreign market entry and the use of heuristics for international decision-making.
Even if the marketing and management literature is in many ways permeable to the debate around heuristics developed in experimental psychology and cognitive science, international business and international marketing studies on the one hand recognize that international decision-making, especially when dealing with foreign market entry, is strongly characterized by uncertainty, on the other hand, there isn't a developed and systematized literature about it. This paper shows key topics and areas fundamental to foreign market entry in which heuristics are applied by decision makers and their effectiveness.
A systematic review of the use of heuristics for foreign market entry decision-making can represent a useful step for a more organic development of knowledge about the more general use of heuristics for international decision-making. Understanding the decision-making process on the modes of entry in foreign markets is a key topic for international marketing and international business scholars and practitioners.

Probing the impact of cognitive heuristics on strategic decision-making during the COVID-19 pandemic: evidence from an emerging economy

This study aims to explore and clarify the mechanism by which cognitive heuristics influence strategic decision-making during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in an emerging economy.
Data collection was conducted through a survey completed by 213 top-level managers from firms located in the twin cities of Pakistan. A convenient, purposively sampling technique and snowball method were used for data collection. To examine the relationship between cognitive heuristics and strategic decision-making, hypotheses were tested by using correlation and regression analysis.
The article provides further insights into the relationship between cognitive heuristics and strategic decision-making during the COVID-19 pandemic. The results suggest that cognitive heuristics (under-confidence, self-attribution and disposition effect) have a markedly negative influence on the strategic decision-making during the COVID-19 pandemic in an emerging economy.
The article encourages strategic decision-makers to avoid relying on cognitive heuristics or their feelings when making strategic decisions. It provides awareness and understanding of cognitive heuristics in strategic decision-making, which could be very useful for business actors such as managers and entire organizations. The findings of this study will help academicians, researchers and policymakers of emerging countries. Academicians can formulate new behavioural models that can depict the solutions to dealing with an uncertain situation like COVID-19. Policymakers and strategic decision-making teams can develop crisis management strategies based on concepts from behavioral strategy to better deal with similar circumstances in the future, such as COVID-19.
The paper's novelty is that the authors have explored the mechanism by which cognitive heuristics influence strategic decision-making during the COVID-19 pandemic in an emerging economy. It adds to the literature in strategic management, explicitly probing the impact of cognitive heuristics on strategic decision-making; this field is in its initial stage, even in developed countries, while little work has been done in emerging countries.

The heuristics applied by tech entrepreneurs in the Middle East during opportunity evaluation
Mohamad Hjeij
This study aims to explore the heuristics applied by tech entrepreneurs in the Middle East during the opportunity evaluation process.
A multiple case-based methodology was applied, which consisted of semi-structured interviews with entrepreneurial experts from different cities in the Middle East. Qualitative data analysis was then performed with inductive thematic coding using the Eisenhardt method.
The results suggest that entrepreneurs mostly use six heuristics to evaluate opportunities quickly. Three of them are related to the opportunity as an abstract idea, and three are connected with the person (s) involved in the opportunity. In addition, entrepreneurs in the Middle East were more interested in the personal characteristics of the opportunity presenter than in the opportunity itself.
Identifying the heuristics applied by experts may neglect the perspective of the community of entrepreneurs as a whole. Hence, future research should target a wider segment of entrepreneurs. Furthermore, the effect of applying such heuristics on the strategic growth of startups remains an open question.
The identified heuristics are aligned with the hands-on approach of entrepreneurship and can be applied as a decision-making technique for aspiring entrepreneurs who seek to succeed in this region.
This study explores the under-examined topic of heuristics in opportunity evaluation within the regional context of the Middle East, which has also been scarcely investigated. It sheds light on the importance of cultural factors in identifying the cognitive shortcuts used in a business context.

Heuristics in financial decision-making: the selection of SME financing by advisers in an increasingly diverse market

In order to better understand how heuristics are used in practice, the authors explore what type of heuristics is used in the managerial domain of financial advisors to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and what influences the shaping of these heuristics. In doing so, the authors detect possible fast-and-frugal heuristics in day-to-day decision-making of independent financial advisers who help owners of SMEs to acquire capital (e.g. loans, factoring, leasing and equity).
The authors inductively assessed the work of financial advisers of SMEs. Based on group discussions, the authors drew up a semi-structured interview-protocol with descriptive questions about how financial advisers come to a deal for their clients. The interviews of 19 professionals were analysed by relating them to the theory of fast-and-frugal heuristics.
Within their decision-making, advisers estimate the likelihood of acceptance by a few financial providers they know well in their personal network with a strong bias towards traditional banking products, although there are a large number of alternatives on the Dutch market. "Less is more" seems to be a relevant principle when defined as satisficing. Heuristics help advisers to deal with behavioural and economic limitations. Also, the authors have found that client interaction, previous working experience and the company the adviser is working for influences the shaping of the simple rules the adviser is using.
The study shows how difficult it is to understand the ecological rationality of a certain group of professionals and to understand the "less is more" principle. Financial advisers to SMEs use cognitive shortcuts and simple rules to advise SME-owners, based on previous experiences, but it is difficult to determine whether that leads to the same or even better solutions for them and their clients than using probability theory and financial optimisation models. Within heuristics, satisficing seems to be a dominant mechanism. Here, heuristics help advisers in recognising possibilities by searching for similarities between a current financing case and previous experiences. The data suggests that if "less is more" is defined as satisficing for one or more stakeholders involved, the principle dominates the decision making of financial advisers of SME's.
The authors suggest the relevance of a behavioural approach to finance by assessing the day-to-day decisions of financial advisers of SMEs. Also, the authors suggest that financial advisers are guided by previous experiences, and they do not fully assess a wide range of options in their work but need shortcuts to fulfil the needs of their clients.
The study comes close to day-to-day decision-making in finance by assessing how professionals make decisions. The authors try to understand types of heuristics in relation with "ecological rationality" and the less is more principle. The authors assess financial advisers of SME-companies, a group that has gotten little research attention until now. The influence of client interaction and of the company the adviser is working for is remarkable in the shaping of the advisers' simple rules.

Elimelech's attempt to drown himself hadn't worked. His leather armor was still drenched from the Jordan River and water dripped down the fringes at the corners of his garment, especially from the royal blue string amidst the other white ones. Elimelech sought the road to Bet Hayeshimot which he knew must be nearby. His damp beard dried quickly in the afternoon sun, showing his long bright red facial hair mixed with streaks of white. He walked on the eastern bank of the river off the northern coast of the Sea of Salt until he spotted the ancient road leading further east. Elimelech walked on the worn dirt road that cut through wild shrubs and the occasional tamarisk tree, his pack and short sword still at his side.
He saw the Reuvenite stronghold of Bet Hayeshimot in the distance. He sought their beautiful flag that he remembered flying on the ramparts; mandrakes on a scarlet background. Instead, he spotted a sand colored flag flapping in the wind. On the foreground was a city in flames with a curved sword over it. Moab. Moab is here, Elimelech realized.
As he cautiously climbed the road, he noticed hundreds of tents outside the walls of Bet Hayeshimot, and soldiers marching around the city. Elimelech jumped into the shrubs, out of sight of the soldiers.
Why is Moab here? Elimelech thought while hiding behind the shrubs as he examined the enemy force. There must be over two thousand troops here! How did he raise such an army? Why did we receive no word from Reuven?
Because we were busy fighting our brother Benjamin, Elimelech answered himself.
A tall, large-framed man atop a chariot rode out of the gates of Bet Hayeshimot with a broad smile. His pristine white robe, gold jewelry and his pony-tail of red hair from an otherwise bold scalp marked him as the famed King Eglon of Moab. Elimelech recognized Elders of the tribe of Reuven that ran slavishly after Eglon's carriage.
I need to find out more, Elimelech decided. I need to find out how he captured this stronghold so quickly and easily and what his plans may be. But how? They will identify me as a Judean instantly. I must blend in somehow.
Elimelech looked around the shrubs to see what resources were available to him. He noticed a patch of dandelions and had an idea. He plucked a dozen dandelions out of the ground, careful to preserve the roots. He trekked through the shrubbery and trees and circled around to the back of Bet Hayeshimot. He crossed a small bubbly stream that led to the Jordan. He sought the garbage dump that was behind every city.
He found a clearing with a large pile of broken pottery, rotted wood and other waste from the city. He searched through the garbage until he found a worn out copper pot with a hole at its bottom. Elimelech raised the pot in triumph, then set it aside and continued the search. After he found two more equally worn pots, he gathered his treasure and built a fire next to the clearing with the flint from his pack.
He took the first two pots, placing one within another and warmed them over the fire, making sure the holes were covered. The softening copper bottoms of the pots stuck to each other. Not perfectly, but enough for Elimelech. He repeated the process again with the third pot and then took the still-warm amalgamation to the nearby stream, filling it up. Water dripped out of the bottom of his makeshift pot. He placed the pot on the fire, noting his reflection in the water, especially his long beard.
Elimelech pulled out his short sword and grasped the long tendrils of his beard. He remembered decades ago, as a teenager, his excitement when the first hairs had grown on his jaw. It had signaled his entering adulthood. As most of the Israelites, he had never cut or trimmed his beard. Mystics had hinted at a certain holiness attached to the hair that grew from a man's face. The Egyptians religiously shaved their facial hair. The Canaanites often trimmed their beards, especially in the spring after the cold of winter had passed. The Philistines were also clean-shaven, though many had taken to the Canaanite ways.
I have in any case lost any holiness I might have laid claim to, Elimelech thought as he ran his sword through his beard. He sawed through his heavy beard, painfully cutting off hairs that had been a part of him his entire adult life. That life is over. Perhaps I can find redemption with the Moabites.
Elimelech looked into the pot to check the length of his trimmed beard, but the water had already come to a boil. He broke off the roots of the dandelions and tossed them into the pot. An acrid smell rose as the water quickly turned brown. Elimelech let the roots simmer in the pot as the water turned darker and darker. Satisfied with the color, he carefully removed the pot from the fire, allowing the liquid to cool.
After several minutes, Elimelech placed both his hands in the pot. He removed hands covered with a thick brown liquid. He ran his hands through his hair and shortened beard. He repeated the process until all the liquid was finished. He took the empty pot to the stream, washed his hands as best he could of the dye and refilled the leaky pot.
He placed the pot on the ground, and when the water settled, looked at his reflection again. He did not recognize the face that stared back. His mane of red that had been accentuated with a distinguished white was now a common, younger brown. The face was different from what he remembered. Harder, pained, unsure. And there was something in the eyes. He had trouble meeting his own gaze. Guilt drove him now. And was it madness? Was it madness hiding behind his eyes? Could he even be the judge of his own sanity? He pushed his murderous episode out of his mind and focused on his new self-appointed mission. He carefully hid the fringes at the corners of his garment into the folds of his tunic, making sure not even one strand, especially the precious blue ones, could be seen. He spilled the water onto the fire and walked to the entrance of Bet Hayeshimot.
Elimelech reached the tent encampment outside the city. Tents were spread out under a thin canopy of oaks outside the city walls. He walked casually towards the encampment. Moabite soldiers looked him over perfunctorily and ignored him. Elimelech saw a large pavilion near the city gate with the flag of Moab flying at its top. That must be Eglon's tent. How can I get closer? Surely someone may question me.
He looked at the activity in the camp. Soldiers and civilians were walking purposefully throughout the camp and in and out of the city. He saw armor being repaired, supplies being replenished.
Elimelech walked eastward through the busy camp, and then, after passing half-a-dozen tents, turned to Eglon's tent. He grabbed a fallen tree branch, sat behind Eglon's tent, took out his short sword and started sharpening the end of the branch. He listened for voices from the tent.
"Thank you, Dirthamus," a rich voice said. That must be Eglon, Elimelech thought.
"Will serve well, though unwillingly," a raspy, wheezy voice answered.
"Most of my agents are like that. How many truly serve willingly?" Eglon asked.
"When there is a confluence of interests, we serve willingly, my liege," a female answered.
"Ah, Princess Neema. Insightful as always. But now we must return to the business at hand." Eglon said.
"Yeah, what's the next move, boss?" a new voice asked. Elimelech thought he sounded inebriated.
Elimelech missed the bark he was cutting and almost sliced himself when he heard Eglon's statement.
Elimelech spluttered quietly. Eglon was behind it all? He contrived our war?
This Eglon is most dangerous. I must stop him, Elimelech thought agitatedly. He stopped pretending to cut the branch.
Galkak made a choking sound on his drink.
He will kill them all? I must prevent that! Elimelech gripped his short sword tightly.
"NOOO!!!" Elimelech yelled as he cut through the wall of the tent. He saw large Eglon sitting comfortably on a cushion, a goblet of wine in his hand. Princess Neema sat to his left, her hand on Eglon's arm. On Eglon's right sat a hunched and cloaked thin man. King Galkak sat in front of Eglon, with a matching goblet in his hand.
"I will not let you do this evil thing," Elimelech approached Eglon, short sword pointed at the smiling monarch. Elimelech did not notice the two soldiers on either side of the impromptu opening he made in the tent. As if expecting him, they grabbed his arms from either side. Elimelech looked in shock at the two soldiers.
"What exactly will you stop me from doing?" Eglon addressed Elimelech as he took another sip from his goblet.
"What? How did you? I will stop you from killing these innocent people, from invading the tribes of Israel," Elimelech said.
Elimelech looked at Eglon with utter incomprehension.
"Who is your agent in Israel?" Elimelech demanded.
"Ehud!? Ehud!? NOOO!!" Elimelech screamed. He yanked his arm out of one soldier's grasp and punched the other soldier in the face. Free, Elimelech escaped the tent through the opening he hade made and ran out of the encampment.
"Well played, your majesty," Dirthamus hissed.
"You mean it was all a trick?" Galkak asked, mouth still open from the whole exchange.
Eglon slapped his thigh and laughed heartily.
"Don't worry, boss. I ain't goin' anywhere." Galkak looked with longing at the opening Elimelech had cut through the royal tent.

Lorenzo Bandini (ur. 21 grudnia 1935 w Barce, zm. 10 maja 1967 w Monte Carlo) – włoski kierowca Formuły 1. W swojej karierze reprezentował stajnie Scuderia Ferrari, Cooper, BRM oraz Scuderia Centro Sud w Formule 1. Jest dziesiątą tragicznie zmarłą ofiarą w historii Formuły 1.

7 maja 1967 Bandini doznał rozległych oparzeń w wypadku podczas wyścigu o Grand Prix Monako w 1967. Po wyjściu z szykany "S" podczas jazdy wzdłuż prostej przy porcie jego bolid Ferrari 312/67 eksplodował, wskutek czego wrak uderzył w słomianą bandę, odbił się i stanął na środku toru paląc się. Bandini bardzo długo przebywał w palącym się bolidzie, co spowodowało oparzenia i zwęglenie 70% ciała. Zmarł trzy dni później w szpitalu Princess Grace Polyclinic Hospital w Monte Carlo.

Założona przez jego siostrę Fundacja Lorenzo Bandiniego, co roku przyznaje jednemu z zawodników Trofeum Lorenzo Bandiniego. Nagroda jest przyznawana za najbardziej widoczne postępy w rozwoju sportowym i ducha walki okazywanego na torze. Pierwszy raz nagrodę przyznano w roku 1992, a od roku 1995 trofeum przyznawana jest corocznie wyróżniającym się kierowcom wyścigowym startującym w Formule 1.

Sir Bedivere (495?) (Welsh: Bedwyr) komt voor in de verhalen rond koning Arthur, hij zou een van de ridders van de Ronde Tafel geweest zijn.

Bedivere wordt al vroeg vermeld in de verhalen rond Arthur, samen met Kay en Walewein. Zijn vader was Bedrawt en zijn broer, die ook voorkomt in de Arthurlegendes, heet Sir Lucan. Hij zou twee kinderen hebben gehad, een dochter Enefog en zoon Amren. Zijn belangrijkste daden zijn de slag van Mount Tryfwyrd (al was Bedivere een-handig, zijn slachtoffers vielen achter elkaar neer, volgens de legende zou hij drie man met een zwaai met het zwaard doden) en het terugbrengen van het zwaard Excalibur naar de Vrouwe van het Meer.

Bij de Slag van Camlann waar Arthur zou zijn neergestoken door Mordred, zou Arthur aan zijn trouwste kameraad Bedivere gevraagd hebben om het zwaard Excalibur zo vlug mogelijk naar de Vrouwe van het Meer te brengen, zo zou het zwaard verborgen blijven voor mensen die er slechte bedoelingen mee hebben. Bedivere reisde af naar het meer, eenmaal daar twijfelde hij om het zwaard er in te gooien, hij vond het zonde en was bang dat er niets zou gebeuren. Na twee keer twijfelen trok hij weer terug naar het hof. Daar vroeg Arthur, die op sterven lag, hoe het gegaan was. Bedivere antwoordde dat hij het zwaard het meer ingegooid had en het gewoon naar de bodem zag zinken. Hierop werd Arthur woedend en zei dat dit de bedoeling nooit kon zijn. Bedivere biechtte uiteindelijk op dat hij het zwaard nog in bezit had, hij reisde opnieuw af en dit keer hield hij het zwaard hoog boven zijn hoofd, waarop een vrouwenhand uit het meer oprees. Bedivere gooide het zwaard richting de hand, en het zwaard verdween in het meer.

Following the remarkable success of the Commercial Vehicle Show earlier this year, Triscan Systems Limited will again attend one of the transport sectors largest events at Eurobus Expo 2012.
Euro Bus Expo occurs every 2 years and is the trade event that brings together thousands of leading trade individuals from the bus and coach sector. This year's event at the NEC in Birmingham is forecast to be bigger than ever with 257 exhibitors and over 9,000 visitors expected from 41 different countries.
For Triscan, the main focus of interest is its newly launched product range which includes the Apollo2 fuel island controller and EasiTag; a vehicle fuel access device which uses wireless data and ID transfer technology. In addition, the company has extended its influence at the fuel island with a brand new range of integrated fuel management pump units – the new Triscan Integra, as well as a complementary range of stand alone pumps.
The new products will cover an extensive range of flow rates and will have a number of twin speed options to cover most commercial fuelling requirements. As well as having an extremely compact footprint, these products have many standard features that customers normally would pay for as required extras at additional cost; an emergency stop button, fuel and water particle filter, break coupling and pump stool are all included with each pump as standard. Finally, easy and quick maintenance is assured with the sensible layout of the main internal components.
Triscan is one of very few companies in the sector to publish an extensive service level agreement and the revamped version of this, which includes additional maintenance and support products, will underpin the servicing options for the new hardware range.
Marketing Director Barry McLeod states – "This is the fourth new product that Triscan has launched this year and comes on the back of the management team's buy out of the company from its previous owners in the spring. Our investment in the business continues with the appointment of 2 new Account Managers to cover Scotland and also the South East, in addition to two new engineers who are fuel pump specialists – our team of fuel management experts continues to grow as does our commitment to our customers".
Triscan will be exhibiting at the Euro Bus Expo from the 6th to the 8th November on stand 5/T164.


Walter Dukes (counsel for the Hawaii defenants, whose brother just completed his term as President of MS Bar, and whose former partner is now a federal judge) then brings up issue of Taitz representing other plaintiffs and practicing law illegally in MS. Taitz responds by saying that Leah Lax wants to dismiss her claim. There is a discussion of Taitz's allegedly representing the other plaintiffs and a copy of her engagement letter with Ms. Lax which Taitz sent to MS counsel over the weekend (after Lax wrote a letter saying Taitz was her lawyer, dont write Lax directly). Tepper says engagement letter (paraphasing: Im your attorney where I get admitted and a co-plaintiff where Im not) is a ploy allowing Taitz to represent other plaintiffs without being admitted pro hac. (Tepper notes that this has been a tactic of hers in many other cases. When she can't appear pro hac, she just finds other plaintiffs and just signs their names to the complaint.) Taitz then launches into a lengthy discussion of fraud and claims she is not representing anybody in Mississippi except herself.
Judge is about to order that Taitz notify other plaintiffs to appear but notes that he doesn't have their addresses. Taitz claims she provided physical addresses first to court, then to Sam Begley. But Court can't find and Tepper says they were never provided. Judge instructs Taitz to provide names and addresses of the other plaintiffs.
Taitz hangs up. Then calls back in.
Court orders Taitz to provide physical addresses for other plaintiffs to Court and opposing counsel. Court intends to ensure that all plaintiffs are notified of the upcoming hearing. (They are expected to attend).
Judge is interrupting jury trial on November 16, 2012 at 1 pm. Court says we might go pretty late and will address all motions. Counsel are to take that into account.
Court inquires about Taitz's new motion for sanctions and asks if counsel can file oppositions in time. Tepper says counsel may not have time but if it is merely a reiteration of the prior sanctions motion, counsel will seek to adopt by reference the prior oppositions.
Taitz then overplays her hand. She is going to bring in more witnesses! Taitz requests that court subpoena or order for her witness from Tennessee (the expert) to appear because he is being intimidated. Judge is puzzled since this new expert is her witness. Judge wants an affidavit re intimidation.
Taitz then asks for court order for Dr. Onaka to appear. Walter Dukes objects saying Dr. Onaka has appeared specially and isn't subject to the court's jurisdiction. Taitz then says she's seeking to subpoena Dr. Onaka as a witness.
Court is about to allow Taitz to issue subpoenas but several counsel object. Taitz then talks about her trial in court in Georgia and how a judge found a subpoena against the President proper. Tepper corrects Taitz on various misstatements (at least a dozen) in her non stop 7 minute rant, pointing out it wasnt a court trial but an administrative hearing before an ALJ, and that the superior court on review found the proceedings shouldnt have been held. (Taitz says thats not true.) Tepper asks the court not to give Taitz the power to issue subpoenas but to have magistrate judge supervise the process.
Taitz then brags about her Indiana case and the evidence adduced there. When Tepper points out that Taitz lost that one, too, and that all her evidence was stricken from the record, Taitz concedes the trial was vacated but asserts all her evidence was accepted into the record. And she offers to send the court the transcript.
Taitz calls in 4 minutes late.
Court takes over the call. Tells Taitz she is a party and can call witnesses. Tepper objects and says resolution of the MJOP and MTD don't need witnesses. Tepper then says he and his clients will not be ready for witnesses related to Taitz's sanctions motion, because they would need time to depose the so called experts, noting that that the new expert (who Taitz claims is one of her many Ph.D.s) has a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering and his only expertise in this field is that he's looked at a computer screen for more than 10 years. Tepper says none of her experts would qualify under Daubert and reiterates that experts aren't needed if the court limits the hearing to the MJOP and MTD.
Court is ready to rule: On November 16 at 1 o'clock the court will hear argument on MJOP, MTD for lack of jurisdiction and MTD for failure to state a claim. Only those motions will be heard at that time. After that we will discuss status of the motion for sanctions and, if necessary, pick a time for that along with a provision for possible discovery.
Conference ends at 11:44 am.
As it ends, Taitz asks to be heard (again), but the judge has already hung up. Tepper laughs and says, No one is listening to you anymore. And that's the way it should always be.
Tune in to RC Radio Special Edition tonight.


Irrespective of which eating plan you find yourself choosing, staying conscious of the food you're consuming is often a need to. Even though this doesn't seem far too complicated, it might really be extremely easy to get rid of track of what number of energy you have eaten within a working day, including treats and drinks. Because of this, it can be a good idea to start-up a food stuff diary while you can enter everything you've got eaten into it, regardless of whether it was seriously smaller. In case you do that for even a few weeks, you are going to possibly be amazed at all the extras that slip in. Even though you think that you will be keeping heading in the right direction with your diet, you may not be counting every very last detail you try to eat. You could follow any food plan, or at least find out if you might be dishonest, by using a foodstuff journal.
There is a eating plan called the Mediterranean Diet regime that's mostly based upon the reality that people in international locations like Greece, Spain, Italy and France have significantly less conditions and weight problems issues when compared to the America, along with a few other countries. You can find plenty from which to choose on this diet plan, although the principal concentrate is on healthier fat, like olive oil, refreshing vegatables and fruits and also a constrained total of fish and meat. As wine is considered to aid avert heart illness, a small amount of it really is often welcomed. Looking at the amount of all-natural and delicious foodstuff you can decide on from using the Mediterranean Diet program, it really is unquestionably worth seeking into Crohn's Flare Up Diet.
Vegetarian and vegan diets are encouraged by numerous industry experts in bodyweight decline and health. Goods derived from animals can not be eaten with a vegan diet plan, but over a vegetarian food plan you could consume things like dairy and eggs, just no meat. Both equally sides of your argument with regards to which can be healthier between vegan eating plans and vegetarian diet programs can be learned in many guides, web-sites and content articles. Though there are actually individuals who do properly on these types of diets, other individuals do not. You still must be careful using your calorie and carbohydrate use on this sort of diet. You are able to stop consuming meat as an example but nonetheless try to eat a load of sweets, pasta and bread will not be of use to you when endeavoring to get rid of some bodyweight. Having inside of a fantastic volume of fruits and veggies is needed for each meat eaters and vegetarians alike, but other sources of protein have to be located for vegetarians.

Should you Consider Search Engine Optimization (SEO)?
The answer to this is rarely simple, often expensive, and sometimes meaningless. But other times, may it be really significant.
We're going to delve into the way that search engines index web pages and display search results shortly, but before we do that, let's take a brief detour to talk about your needs as a marketer.
The job of an SEO professional is to make specific pages from your website appear near the top of the listings on Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs) in response to searches on specific, pre-established keywords. If you ask a search optimization practitioner about sales or profit, you're likely to get a disinterested shrug. Most search professionals consider their job done if your page is near the top of the listings on the SERP, period. Sales and profit are your problem.
This implies that you have another issue to address first: 'Will a high ranking on particular keywords help achieve your business goals such as generating qualified leads, acquiring new accounts, and increasing revenue and profitability?
A marketing plan starts with more basic questions: What type of customers am I looking for? What products or services do I want to sell to them? How many of them are there? Where are they located? What ways can I use to reach them at the time they are most likely to consider my products or services?
There are many ways to reach a targeted audience. When you evaluate alternatives, one thing you should consider is the selectivity of each method, so you don't have to pay to reach a large number of non-prospects, or field useless inquiries from them. SEO accomplishes this in the same way as newspaper classifieds and yellow pages — it screens people primarily by interest, not by demographics.
If you care about the type of customer you generate (for example, the size of their business), it may be hard to perform that type of filtering with SEO. For example, if you are advertising to businesses, most of your prospects may be from small companies, simply because there are more of them overall. If that isn't consistent with your objectives, you may want to consider other marketing programs, or focus on specific strategies to filter the prospects that SEO does produce.

Glenn Dicterow (born December 23, 1948), is an American violinist and former concertmaster of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra. He is on the faculty of the University of Southern California's Thornton School of Music where he holds the Jascha Heifetz Chair in Violin as well as serving as a faculty artist at the Music Academy of the West.

Dicterow's musical gifts became apparent when, at age 11, he made his solo debut with the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto with the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra. Harold Dicterow, his father, served as principal of the second violin section in the Los Angeles Philharmonic for 52 years. Over the following years, Dicterow became one of the most sought-after young violinists, appearing as soloist from coast to coast.

Dicterow went on to win numerous awards and competitions, including the Young Musicians Foundation Award and Coleman Award (Los Angeles), The Julia Klumpke Award (San Francisco), and the Bronze Medal in the International Tchaikovsky Competition (1970). He is a graduate of The Juilliard School, where he was a student of Ivan Galamian. Other teachers have included Erno Neufeld, Eudice Shapiro, Naoum Blinder, Manuel Compinsky, Jascha Heifetz and Henryk Szeryng.

Career
In 1967 he appeared as soloist with the New York Philharmonic under the baton of Andre Kostelanetz in the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto. He was then 18 years old. In 1980 he joined the Orchestra as Concertmaster and has since performed as soloist every year. Prior to joining the New York Philharmonic, Dicterow served as Associate Concertmaster and Concertmaster of the Los Angeles Philharmonic. During a New York Philharmonic tour of major American cities in 1986, Dicterow was featured in Leonard Bernstein's Serenade with the composer conducting. In 1990 he played the Carmen Fantasy by Waxman under the direction of Zubin Mehta in a Live from Lincoln Center concert telecast. In 1982, Dicterow was a soloist in the Orchestra's concert at the White House.

In recent years, Dicterow has been the featured soloist with the New York Philharmonic in Prokofiev's Second Violin Concerto with guest conductor Yuri Temirkanov, Gian Carlo Menotti's Violin Concerto under the direction of Kurt Masur, and Bruch's Violin Concerto No. 1 with Christian Thielemann. During the Philharmonic's 1998 Asian Tour, he was soloist in the Barber Violin Concerto in Manila, Korea, and in Beijing, China, where he performed in The Great Hall of the People to an audience of more than 10,000 people. In the 2005–06 season, he was the soloist in Mozart's Violin Concerto No. 3, K.216 with Bramwell Tovey conducting, and Mozart's Serenade No. 7 in D major, K.248B, "Haffner", with Sir Colin Davis. In the 2006–07 season he played the Brahms Double Concerto with Philharmonic Principal Cello Carter Brey in New York and on the Orchestra's 2007 European Tour.

Dicterow has also been a guest soloist with the symphony orchestras of Los Angeles, Baltimore, Birmingham, Chautauqua, Grant Park, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Mexico City, Miami, Montreal, Omaha, and Tampa, to name a few. More recent engagements have included solo concerts with the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, Hong Kong Philharmonic, and the Bernstein Serenade with the Curtis Symphony Orchestra in "Isaac Stern at Eighty: A Birthday Celebration" at Carnegie Hall. In February 2002, he performed Miklós Rózsa's Symphonie Concertante and the Wagner-Waxman Tristan Fantasy with Leonard Slatkin and the National Symphony Orchestra. Upcoming activities include an October, 2006 appearance with the San Diego Symphony, led by Jahja Ling, in Bruch's Violin Concerto No. 1 in G minor; a recital at the University of Texas in January, 2007; and a performance with the Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra in February 2007.

On May 24, 2012, Dicterow announced that he would step down as concertmaster of the New York Philharmonic to join the full-time faculty at the University of Southern California. Joining faculty members such as Midori, Ralph Kirshbaum and a host of other renowned faculty members, Dicterow acquired the first Robert Mann Endowed Chair in Violin and Chamber Music at the University of Southern California's Thornton School of Music. The appointment began in the Fall of 2013, although Dicterow stayed with the New York Philharmonic through the end of the 2013-2014 season. Later in March 2022, the Thornton School of Music bestowed the highest honor possible to a faculty member in the Strings Department: Dicterow was named the Jascha Heifetz Chair in Violin.

Discography
Dicterow's discography includes Aaron Copland's Violin Sonata, Largo, and Piano Trio; Charles Ives's Sonatas Nos. 2 and 4 and Piano Trio; and Erich Wolfgang Korngold's Piano Trio and Violin Sonata, all for EMI. He is also featured in the violin solos in Richard Strauss's Ein Heldenleben and Also sprach Zarathustra with Zubin Mehta for CBS. Other compositions committed to disc are works of Wieniawski with Zubin Mehta and the Los Angeles Philharmonic; Lee Holdridge's Violin Concerto with the London Symphony Orchestra and Holdridge conducting; Shostakovich's Violin Concerto No. 1 with the New York Philharmonic conducted by Maxim Shostakovich on a Radiothon recording; and the Philharmonic's recording of Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade with Yuri Temirkanov on the BMG label. Dicterow's most recent CD is a solo recital for Cala Records entitled New York Legends, featuring John Corigliano's Sonata for Violin and Piano, Erich Wolfgang Korngold's Much Ado About Nothing, the premiere recording of Leonard Bernstein's Sonata for Violin and Piano, and Bohuslav Martinu's Three Madrigals for violin and viola, in collaboration with violist Karen Dreyfus and pianist Gerald Robbins. He currently appears on Navona Records.

Filmography
Dicterow can also be heard in the violin solos of the film scores for:
The Turning Point
The Untouchables
Altered States
Aladdin
Beauty and the Beast
Interview with the Vampire

Other musical interests
In addition to concertizing, Dicterow enjoys an active teaching career. He was on the faculty of The Juilliard School and Manhattan School of Music. He and his wife, violist Karen Dreyfus, are founding members of The Lyric Piano Quartet, which was in residence at Queens College, City University of New York. In 2013, both Dicterow and Dreyfus left New York to join the full-time faculty at the USC Thornton School of Music.
He also contributed to Madonna's 1992 album Erotica with the song In This Life, leading the strings in this orchestral song.

Delayed stimulus checks should arrive by February: tax firms
by honynews12 January 12, 2021 January 12, 2021 010
Millions of Americans whose stimulus checks got caught up in an Internal Revenue Service snafu should receive them by early February if they haven't already, tax preparation firms say.
The IRS is working to fix a mistake that caused it to send millions of $600 coronavirus relief payments to closed or inactive bank accounts, forcing taxpayers to wait as the money bounced back to the feds.
Those temporary accounts were set up for customers by tax preparers, who say they're working with the IRS to get the money to the right place in the coming weeks.
Jackson Hewitt and Republic Bank told customers that their so-called economic impact payments will be processed and deposited by Feb. 1, while Iowa-based TaxAct said the money will start hitting its affected customers' accounts on that date.
The IRS is working to process the payments again and will re-issue them later this month, it said Monday, noting that tax companies aren't in possession of the money. The affected taxpayers will either see the funds deposited directly into their bank accounts or receive a paper check, officials said.
"The IRS regrets the inconvenience and greatly appreciates the assistance of our tax industry partners in helping accelerate a resolution of this issue," the agency said in a statement.
Americans who used other tax firms may already have their checks. H&R Block had processed all of its customers' stimulus payments as of Jan. 6, according to a spokesperson, and TurboTax said the delayed deposits started arriving on Friday.
The IRS's efforts to correct its error means affected taxpayers will get the stimulus funds sooner than if they had claimed them on their 2020 tax returns, which the agency initially said they would have to do.
But some tax companies slammed the IRS for making the mistake in the first place.
"We considered this chain of events absolutely unacceptable and worked tirelessly with the highest levels of the US Treasury Department, the IRS (including the IRS Commissioner), and other parts of the federal government to find a solution that ensured our customers would get what they were owed as quickly as possible," Mark Steber, New Jersey-based Jackson Hewitt's chief tax information officer, said in a blog post.
TaxAct said it offered the IRS solutions that would have allowed the payments to be delivered as soon as next week.
"Unfortunately, they chose their own path that does not as quickly help the people most affected by the pandemic," the company said on Twitter.
"While we are disappointed the IRS was unable to correct its error sooner, it has accepted responsibility for the delay," Kentucky-based Republic Bank said in a statement on its website.

WHO (Accidentally) Confirms Covid Is No More Dangerous than Flu
By Kit Knightly
Oct 25, 2021 - 1:31:56 AM
https://www.globalresearch.ca/who-accidentally-confirms-covid-no-more-dangerous-flu/5726311
First published by GR in October 2020
One year later, it is worth recalling the WHO's historic statement, which was made one month prior to the launching of the Covid-19 vaccine on November 8, 2020.
The World Health Organization has finally confirmed what we (and many experts and studies) have been saying for months - the coronavirus is no more deadly or dangerous than seasonal flu.
The WHO's top brass made this announcement during a special session of the WHO's 34-member executive board on Monday October 5th, it's just nobody seemed to really understand it.
In fact, they didn't seem to completely understand it themselves.
At the session, Dr Michael Ryan, the WHO's Head of Emergencies revealed that they believe roughly 10% of the world has been infected with Sars-Cov-2. This is their "best estimate", and a huge increase over the number of officially recognised cases (around 35 million).
Dr. Margaret Harris, a WHO spokeswoman, later confirmed the figure, stating it was based on the average results of all the broad seroprevalence studies done around the world.
As much as the WHO were attempting to spin this as a bad thing - Dr Ryan even said it means "the vast majority of the world remains at risk." - it's actually good news. And confirms, once more, that the virus is nothing like as deadly as everyone predicted.
The global population is roughly 7.8 billion people, if 10% have been infected that is 780 million cases. The global death toll currently attributed to Sars-Cov-2 infections is 1,061,539.
That's an infection fatality rate of roughly or 0.14%. Right in line with seasonal flu and the predictions of many experts from all around the world.
0.14% is over 24 times LOWER than the WHO's "provisional figure" of3.4% back in March. This figure was used in the models which were used to justify lockdowns and other draconian policies.
In fact, given the over-reporting of alleged Covid deaths, the IFR is likely even lower than 0.14%, and could show Covid to be much less dangerous than flu.
None of the mainstream press picked up on this. Though many outlets reported Dr Ryan's words, they all attempted to make it a scary headline and spread more panic.
Apparently neither they, nor the WHO, were capable of doing the simple maths that shows us this is good news. And that the Covid sceptics have been right all along.
In the interest of thoroughness, a desire to rely on primary sources, and not depending purely on mainstream sources (which may remove or amend articles), I decided to find the actual video of Dr Ryan's remarks.
For some reason, although this was an important WHO meeting during an allegedly hyper-serious pandemic, the video is hard to find. The only place you are able to see it is the WHO's own website, and even then you have to scrub through almost 6 hours of footage. Well, I did that, and you are welcome.
You can't embed the WHO's stream, but I can tell you to go to this page, click "Session 1" and skip to 1:01:33 to hear the exact quote:
Our current best estimates tell us that about ten percent of the global population may have been infected by this virus. This varies depending on country, it varies from urban to rural, it varies between different groups."
I will work on getting an audio clip, for ease of sharing and to make sure it does not get memory holed.

Ann Coulter - April 20, 2011 - REAGAN DEMOCRATS: 'TEA BAGGERS' OR MSNBC VIEWERS?
About a month later, The Washington Post's E.J. Dionne was pitching the Reagan-Democrats-Come-Home canard as his own fresh insight on "The Ed Show," where he said that the Obama White House was no longer worried about losing the Midwest because "former Reagan Democrats" are saying, "This is not our politics."
In his first year in office, Reagan told striking air traffic controllers they had 48 hours to return to their jobs or they'd be fired. He hired permanent replacements and left thousands of illegally striking government workers jobless, banned from ever returning to their government jobs -- until President Clinton allowed them to be rehired.
In Reagan's second year in office, not only he, but his vice president and education secretary all declined invitations to speak at the public school teacher extravaganza, the National Education Association's 120th annual convention. By his third year in office, The Washington Post reported that "few members of government employee unions plan to vote next year for Ronald Reagan."
If Howard Fineman is right, Republicans must have been scared of how that would play out in the 1984 election! And yet, somehow, Reagan managed to win the largest electoral landslide in U.S. history that year, despite government workers being implacably opposed to him.
Indeed, Reagan was such a smash hit with government employees that, during his presidency, the Supreme Court was required to decide whether a government employee could be fired for wishing him dead. While on the job, an employee in a constable's office said of John Hinckley's attempt to kill Reagan, "If they go for him again, I hope they get him."
Where have you gone, rock-ribbed Republican government workers?
With the nation in the fight of its life against incompetent government bureaucrats who can never be fired and think the world owes them $100,000 a year, liberals love to pretend the governor of Wisconsin is at war with West Virginia coal miners.
Again: We're not talking about unions in industries where there is something called "management" on the other side of the bargaining table. We're talking about cushy government jobs used to buy Democratic votes with your hard-earned money.
Real union members are people like Todd Palin, who have nonprogressive views on gay marriage, abortion, public displays of religion, illegal immigration and the treatment of detainees at Guantanamo. Most of them don't even care whether the Screen Actors Guild provides full coverage for Jungian psychotherapy.
The media's true kinship is with college-educated losers who work for state bureaucracies, not machinists, loggers and coal miners.
But now that journalists need to generate warm feelings toward surly government bureaucrats, they are suddenly portraying the bureaucrats as the salt-of-the-earth, blue-collar types they usually deplore.

Double murderer Kajinek found after 40 days on the run
Forty days after his escape from the top-security Mirov prison, the most sought-for man in the Czech Republic, Jiri Kajinek, was hunted down by a special police unit in a Prague flat on Friday evening. Kajinek was serving a life sentence for murdering two people, and this was not for the first time he had escaped from prison. Alena Skodova has the details:
Although the Mirov prison in Moravia is one of the most strictly guarded prisons in the Czech Republic, housed in a hilltop fortress, on October 29th Kajinek managed to escape--the first prisoner ever to do so in Mirov's history.
Exactly 40 days later, he was recaptured by a rapid deployment police unit. Residents of the densely populated Velka Ohrada housing estate on the edge of Prague witnessed a dramatic scene on Friday evening as police burst into a fifth-floor flat, while two of their colleagues waited on the roof and two more dangled from ropes outside the building. They threw five or six acoustic detonators into the flat and broke in via the balcony.
Kajinek, who had let his beard grow to change his appearance, was lying naked in bed and sleeping. The convicted double-murderer had two pistols next to him and police also found a grenade in his bed. But during the operation not a single shot was fired, and everything went so fast that Kajinek did not manage even to stretch his hand out to reach for his gun.
During the assault Kajinek was wounded in the head, and the wound was stitched on the spot by a doctor. According to a police statement, Kajinek did not try to conceal his identity. The whole operation lasted less than a minute. With a sheet over his head Kajinek was then bundled into the police car and escorted to one of Prague's prisons.
"None of us had the slightest idea that Kajinek was staying so close by," one inhabitant in the Velka Ohrada housing estate told reporters. According to unofficial information, the flat belongs to the wife of one of Kajinek's fellow prisoners.
Police President Jiri Kolar told the press that police had known about Kajinek's hideout in Prague for more than two weeks and for the whole time had been preparing their tactics for the assault. The hideout had been found after hundreds of people, linked with Kajinek in one way or another, had been interrogated. After Kajinek's escape at the end of October, the police combed the area near the prison for several days, but after the possibility of Kajinek hiding near Mirov was ruled out, all clues led to Prague.
At the weekend, Jiri Kajinek was taken to the prison of Valdice in Eastern Bohemia. The general director of the Prison Service, Kamila Meclova, told journalists that she was not considering sending Kajinek elsewhere. The Czech Republic's most infamous criminal will be kept in a specially adapted cell, and prison officials insist that he has no chance of escaping again.

Jets left winger Nikolaj Ehlers is out indefinitely with an eye injury after being hit in the face by the puck during the game-ending play in overtime on Thursday night.
The 20-year-old Ehlers, who has 13 goals and 31 points in his rookie season with Winnipeg, just missed giving his team a rare come-from-behind win on a two-on-one against the New York Islanders, only to back check on the ensuing rush and have Frans Nielsen's wild shot hit him in the face and land on Kyle Okposo's stick.
Hall of Famer Gordie Howe dies at age 88 - reports
Lipon was recalled for the second time this season. He played in two games with Winnipeg after joining the Jets on Jan. 17. Lipon has played 45 games for Manitoba this season, recording 30 points (13 goals, 17 assists) and 87 penalty minutes.
The New York Rangers recalled goaltender Magnus Hellberg on an emergency basis from the Hartford Wolf Pack of the AHL.
Rangers starting goaltender Henrik Lundqvist was not expected to dress Friday night against the Washington Capitals at Verizon Center.
Lundqvist was having neck spasms during the second period of a 4-1 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday night.
Lundqvist was pulled after the second period against the Penguins. He allowed three goals in a span of 1:39 late in the second and did not return to the bench for the third period.
Hellberg has appeared in 40 games with the Wolf Pack this season, posting a 22-16-2 record, 2.39 goals-against average, .919 save percentage and three shutouts.
The Anaheim Ducks recalled center Chris Wagner from the San Diego Gulls of the AHL.
Wagner has scored four goals with 26 penalty minutes in 37 games with the Ducks and Colorado Avalanche this season.
The Ducks also reassigned right winger Stefan Noesen to their AHL affiliate. Noesen went scoreless in his Anaheim season debut in Arizona on Thursday night.))

2009 reissue on 180-gram vinyl, with a CD. Singer/songwriter Jeff Tweedy formed Wilco in 1994, and is joined by three of his bandmates from the alt-country pioneer band Uncle Tupelo. "A.M.," the band's debut, is reminiscent of that Tupelo magic: their songs are a little more conventionally country, but there's still a lot of adventure and risk taking going on. "Casino Queen" is a Bluesy, twangy number, a snapshot of country life-and, in this way, is representative of how Wilco differs from Tupelo. Their traditional "Box Full of Letters" sticks to that standard mid-tempo Country-Rock sound, but it's executed brilliantly. "I Must Be High," the killer opening song, is beautifully melodious, and indicates that Wilco can shift the genre while still leaving it accessible. Open up a beer, sit back, and put on this LP.
