Whether you were injured, are accused of a crime, or are merely engaging in everyday affairs that affect your legal rights or property, an attorney can help you resolve problems or prevent new ones from arising.
Here are just a few situations where you might want to seek the advice of an attorney:
You were injured in a car or truck accident
You have been arrested and charged with a crime, such as DUI or shoplifting
You are considering separating from your spouse
You have been subjected to harassment or other discrimination at work
Use Justia to research and compare attorneys so that you can make an informed decision when you hire your counsel.
It is important to research an attorney before hiring him or her. Be sure to evaluate an attorney's experience (types of cases handled, prior results obtained, etc.). Although prior results are not indicative of the likelihood of success in your case, they can help you make an informed decision.
Also worth serious consideration is the attorney's location, particularly if you will be traveling to visit him or her for consultations.
Finally, research an attorney to see whether he or she has ever been subject to discipline. Although disciplinary actions do not necessarily impact the attorney's competence to handle your case, they may affect your decision whether to hire.

Bangladesch –Asia's Raw Diamond
Best travel period | Bangladesh in brief | Peoples and Religions | Food | Flora and fauna | National Parks and Nature Reserves | History | Economy | Festival Calendar
The largest coherent mangrove forest on earth, the bustling metropolis of Dhaka, deep green tea plantations, and mountain regions populated by various small tribes are awaiting visitors of Bangladesh, the land of the Bangla speaking. The two long streams Ganges and Brahmaputra, which are together about 5,700 km, coming in a wide arc from east and west respectively, cross the borders to Bangladesh from the Himalayas, and unite here, bringing the water which is a blessing and a curse for the country. Bangladesh is, especially in the monsoon season in June, July and August, always the victim of devastating floods, which has made it difficult to build a touristically usable infrastructure in recent decades. While other regions of Asia now check in billions of package tourists every year, is a stranger - a "Bideshi" - in Bangladesh still noteworthy, and is welcomed by the locals curiously and friendly.
If you are planning your trip to the touristically new territory of Bangladesh with a competent partner like us at your side, nothing stands in the way of the experience of the genuine Asian way of life, untouched nature and fascinating wildlife. Lovers of fine teas draw from a cornucopia here. The unique architecture of the ancient Hindu temples and ornate mosques, and the mystical ruins of Buddhist monasteries will produce the same awed silence in you than the majestic roots of the mangroves, where one glides slowly in the delta of the Ganges and the Brahmaputra.
In this Garden of Eden, you can actually just hear the beautiful concert of cicadas, and the conversations of colorful birdlife. In this pristine environment, you will almost automaticaly reach a stage of peace and serenity, and understand why in this region the peace of Buddhism is looking back on such a long tradition. The bustling, colorful life in the capital Dhaka finally gives the opposite, the lively and challenging, short the modern aspect of Bangladesh.
Particularly for a trip to Bangladesh, it is immensely important to have competent support; from complying with the extensive entry regulations, to information about necessary vaccinations, to ensuring the transfers and sightseeing within the country, we are at your side. Thanks to our personal experience, we build the bridge to Bangladesh, to this small country in Asia, which is getting the much needed financial support through tourism, and in which all chances are still open, to establish tourism in harmony with nature.

Peoples and Religions
Bangladesh, having an average population density of more than 1,000 people per square kilometer, is the most densely populated country in the world. In an area, which is about twice the size of Bavaria, live some 158 million people! About a quarter of the population lives in cities, only the Chittagong Mountains and the nearly uninhabited Sundarbans are thinly populated. Unlike other South Asian countries, Bangladesh is ethnically very uniform. Approximately 98% of the population are of Bengali origin, one of the few minorities include the Bihari, the Chakma and the Mogh peoples; the latter are of Mongolian origin and live in the Chittagong hills.
The cultural character of Bangladesh, due to its past, in which, among other, Afghans, Ethiopians, Arabs, Turks, conquerors from North Asia and colonizers from Europe played their part, is evident throughout the country, and is also reflected in the predominantly Sunnite folk Islam, who is the state religion too, and has elements of animism, Buddhism and Hinduism incorporated in it. Approximately 12% of Bangladeshis are Hindus. Into Buddhism (mainly Theravada / Hinayana), Christianity and animist religions each fall less than 1% of the believers.
The Bengalis love poems, music, dance and theater. Their kind of classical music and dance is completely different from the European. In all major cities there are theaters, where Folk dramas, but also western dramas, like "Romeo and Juliet" will be played. The local people's theatre is called "Sattra", and is organized regularly in winter in the villages.
Generally, the food in Bangladesh resembles that of India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Nepal - a typical dish consists of rice, river or sea fish and vegetables, and is usually very spicy. For breakfast there is homemade, pan- fried bread (Roti) or stuffed flatbread (Paratha). Among the peasants and workers, the traditional Panta is widespread: rice in water with bell pepper, salt, onions, potatoes or eggs. Other typical dishes are depending on the season: In the rainy season, one likes to eat "Khichuri" with fish or eggs, in winter 'Pitha' (an often sweet pastry made from rice flour), "Vapa" or "Patisapta".
Other local specialties are the Kebab, which is popular around the world, biryani, grilled meat with special drinks (Borhani) and sweets made of milk, rice and / or white flour. Homemade, fresh lime juice is a popular refreshment beverage. Alcoholic beverages are only available in licensed bars and restaurants.
In Bangladesh, there is a wide selection of fresh fruits, including mangoes, lychees, jackfruit (Kathal), guava, banana, sugar apple (Ata), dates, star fruit and water fruits (Panifal).
The population of Bangladesh is mainly engaged in agriculture, and it must pursue it extensively, to provide a reasonably comprehensive nutrition of more and more people. Nevertheless, the river delta in the south of Bangladesh, which is formed by the Brahmaputra, the Ganges and the Meghna, one of the regions of our planet which is still unspoiled by modern civilization. 60% of the Sundarbans (beng. Beautiful Forest), a mangrove forest of 10,000 square kilometers, spreads out within this delta, and is home to many endangered animal and plant species. Only here will the plant friend find the Sundari tree, enjoy the flowers of man-high poinsettias, water hyacinths, jasmine, water lily, rose, hibiscus, bougainvillea, magnolia and wild orchids.
An admirer of large predatory cats does in fact have the chance to a sighting of Bengal tigers, a leopard or a fishing cat in the wild. Fortunately, much of this unique ecosystem is placed under state protection since 1977, and since 1997 the title of UNESCO World Heritage confirms the protection. More remarkable mammals living here are elephants, Asiatic black bears, sloth bears, clouded leopards, leopard cats, rhesus monkeys, several species of deer, wild boars, jackals, gibbons, loris, banteng, gaurs, Ganges dolphins and dugongs.
Additionally to this are reptiles like crocodiles, turtles, pythons and other snakes (including venomous snakes). The "doel", the seychelles magpie robin Copsychus sechellarum as National Bird of Bangladesh, is one of around 300 important bird species, which are native to Bangladesh, and the 12 kingfisher species, which are closely related to them as bee-eaters, bulbul, cuckoos, timalia and drongos (passerines), 22 species of woodpeckers, parrots, mynas, bulbul, magpie, robin cuckoos, hawks, owls, crows, eagles (including imperial eagle, spotted eagle, white-bellied sea eagle), vultures , hornbills, glossy ibis, jacana, parakeets, starlings, magpies, sunbirds, warblers, mask bin hens blue beard robin Nyctoyornisathertoni and red-headed trogon Harpacteserythrocephalus let the heart of ornithologists beat higher.
The biodiversity of Bangladesh is complemented by various interesting species of fish, reptiles and butterflies. The mangrove forest in Bangladesh offers travelers today the opportunity to immerse themselves in a completely natural soundscape. In the area around Syleth are extensive wintering areas for migratory birds, where such an outstanding nature experience is also possible.
National Parks and Nature Reserves
Bangladesh features 17 nature reserves, including the Sundarbans mangrove forest reserve, the Lawachara National Park, the Rema-Kelnga National Wildlife Refuge, the Satchari National Park, the Teknaf - National Wildlife Refuge and the Chunati Nature Reserve:
Sundarban - mangrove forest reserve
The Sundarbans in southern Bangladesh belong to the largest coherent mangrove forest in the world. The 6,000 square kilometers, rich ecosystem is home to many endangered animal species and plants. It also protects the populace in the interior against the increasingly recurrent tropical storms. The area on the border with India is the last major habitat of the Royal Bengal tigers, a bit over 300 of these animals live here, about the same amount as lives on the Indian side.
The Lawachara National Park
In the northeast of the country, the territory of the Lawachara National Park comprising 12.5 km² is located, amid the semi-evergreen "West Bhanugach Forest". Here thrive around 170 different species of plants, it is the homeland for about 290 different species of animals - including the population of Western Hooklock Gibbons, comprising of only 62 specimens.
Satchari National Park
24.3 km² of protection area in the northeast of the country, for more than 200 different species of trees (including sal tree Shorearobusta, teak Tectonagrandis, eucalyptus, rubber trees and countless species of bamboo) and the animal species inhabiting it such as the rare phayre leaf monkey Trachypithecusphayrei , other mammals and especially birds like the red head trogon Harpacteserythrocephalus and the kizuki woodpecker Dendrocoposkizuki.
Teknaf- Wildreservat
In the far south, on the coast, the Teknaf region is located, in which the unique ecosystem of the sandy beaches, criss-crossed by rivers is protected, with their individual flora and fauna, and - in the area of mangrove forests- 161 different species of fish.
The region which is today's Bangladesh is mentioned in the historic scriptures since 1000 BC. The majority of the population was first of Buddhist faith, from the 10th century onwards then predominated Hinduistic currents. In the twelfth century, the dominant Buddhist and Hindu dynasties were replaced by Muslim conquerors and Sufism (a current of Islam) gained the upper hand. In 1576, Bengal was incorporated as a province in the Mughal empire, and also most of the Bengalese converted to Islam, which to date plays an important role in politics and society and as a state religion.
Portuguese traders and missionaries reached Bengal in the early 16th century, Dutch and French followed. In 1650 landed the first British, and built trading posts and factories for the East India Company. About one hundred years later, the Company received the tax sovereignty of some provinces of the Mughal Empire. In 1858 the British crown extended its influence from Bengal in the east to the Indus in the west. Thus the history of Bangladesh is permeated by Dravidian, Indo-Aryan, Persian, Turkish and European influences, the past of
Bangladesh is reflected in archaeological relics, historic buildings and monuments. Examples of Buddhist, Hindu and Islamic architecture can be found across the country, as well as in the commercial centers of Dhaka, Chittagong and Sylhet. Due to the fact, that the majority of the population is of Muslim faith, Bangladesh was split in 1947 from India and became part of Pakistan, under the name East Pakistan. Over the next 26 years, Pakistan was drawn by political and economic instability. For East Pakistan, at a disadvantage not only economically by the separation from the Indian part of Bengal, began a period of dependency and oppression. The relationship between East and West Pakistan escalated dramatically after the second war with India over Kashmir in 1965.
In 1971, finally East Pakistan became independent under the name of Bangladesh, as a result of the Bangladesh war. The young state had since been going through many famines, natural disasters, poverty, political turmoil and military coups. Since democracy was reintroduced in 1991, a relative stability prevails, and an economic progress can be observed.
Bangladesh is one of the developing countries, however, it recorded in recent years an economic growth of 5-6% annually. Approximately 56% of the population work in agriculture, particularly rice, jute, tea and rapeseed are cultivated; mangoes, lychees, sugar cane and tobacco are further agricultural products. Although more than half of all Bangladeshi nationals are farmers, only 23% of the gross domestic product originate from agriculture, more than 50% from the service sector and about 25% from the manufacturing sector - especially from the clothing industry.
Bangladesh is the second largest textile producer in the world, 90% of the approximately 4 million workers here are women. Bangladesh's main exports is clothing at about 75%, next is frozen seafood such as crabs and shrimp, jute and jute products, leather goods, ceramics and tea. Mining is undertaken almost exclusively in the northeast of the country, and only for domestic use, mainly gas and coal.
Even though the state religion is Islam, freedom of religious belief prevails in Bangladesh, and there are multiple religious festivals celebrated throughout the year. The most important holidays are the two biggest festivals of Islam: Eid ul-Fitr, a three-day feast at the end of Ramadan, and Eid al-Adha, which commemorates Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son. Also the large Hindu, Buddhist and Christian festivals are celebrated. The Bengali New Year takes place on 14 April. This includes cheerful music and dance performances, carnival-like street shows and colorful New Year markets (Melas).

Hillsborough police K9 ready to retire
By Allison Herman
Viper (Credit: Hillsborough Police Department)
HILLSBOROUGH, North Carolina (WTVD) -- A member of the Hillsborough Police Department is ready to retire.
Eight-year-old K9 officer Viper has spent years sniffing out drugs and suspects, but a medical condition is now preventing him from being able to work and walk long distances.
Since coming to the department in 2012, the German Shepherd has helped his handler find drugs in cars and buildings. Once he found a stash of guns that were buried under a pile of rubble.
Hillsborough police also said Viper helped NC State Highway Patrol track down a man who ran away from a traffic stop in Orange County.
In his retirement, Viper will continue to live with his handler, officer Mike Toellen and his family.
Toellen said Viper has a strong bond with his son, Jaxon.
"Viper turned his role from being with me to being with Jaxon," Toellen said. "Wherever Jaxon is, Viper is. They play in the yard. He sleeps on the trundle bed below Jaxon. It's priceless."
Viper's name was chosen by elementary students in Orange County.
The police department will recognize Viper for his 5 years of service on November 13 at the Hillsborough Board of Commissioners meeting.

Rosie Dutton continues to tell us about her volunteer trip in Romania. She is volunteering at the bear sanctuary close to Brasov, and having an amazing time!
Today started out a little cooler so I packed my rain coat for working at the sanctuary as well as my sun cream, you can never be too careful! Because we had sorted through so many dairy products the previous few days for food for the bears, todays instructions were to prepare meat only. I had done a couple of meat baskets here and there previously; however, this was a whole new kettle of fish (pardon the pun). At first the meat does smell, I have to be truthfully honest and say some products do make your eyes water a little, however that soon disappears and everything is fine due to most of the food being kept in the freezers. Myself, Ivy and Miriam split the meat evenly and began taking off the packaging and putting the meat in the crates which are then shovelled out and thrown over the fence for feeding. There were chickens to sausages to eggs amongst a lot of other meats. Singing along with some music from the van that brings the food to us we soon realised it was time for lunch. The time really does fly by. We returned after lunch but not before I photographed the two teenage bears running around and play fighting, which I could honestly watch for hours! We finished up the last of the meat and had actually gotten a lot of crates finished between the three of us. Before leaving I gave all the dogs some attention which they really love and scratched behind their ears and on their bellies. We then returned back to the flat where I sat in the garden and took in evening sun and planned the weekend ahead.
I can't believe it has been an entire week in Romania since arriving! The time has flown by and I only have 3 more weeks to go!
Despite this, for me, today was the best day so far! Today we got to go around with the workers and feed the bears. Well, we watched but I'd rather that than attempt to throw the heavy meat and dairy stacks over a tall fence with a spade! It was amazing to see so many bears all together at once and eating, mostly peacefully, next to one another. What I found even more fascinating is that Dika (one of the workers) who has worked at the sanctuary from day one, knew almost every single bears name. That's amazing knowing there are well over sixty individuals! He knew their stories and all about their favourite feeding spots and so on. It was so interesting. We came across the alfa male, Urs which literally translates as 'bear' from Romanian, and he was absolutely huge and such a beautiful looking bear. He was very healthy and has a beautiful coat of dark fur with a light head. It was also great to see Lydia and Christie, two of the first bears at the sanctuary, it's so great seeing how they are now and how much more relaxed and cared for they are than the life (if you can call it that) they previously had. We also went to Max's enclosure to feed him. Max is a well-loved bear by a lot of the staff. Max is in an enclosure with a female and that is it. He is kept away from the public due to him being blind. The blindness occurred when his previous owner stabbed his eyes with pins intentionally to make him easier to control. Today Max seems happy and comfortable. He knows his enclosure extremely well from each tree to the pond to where the food truck stops. It was fascinating to watch and he is a beautiful very dark brown almost black coloured bear.
The feeding took us from 8:30-12:00 due to the amount of food. We then helped the guys with the fruit for the bears and goats and donkeys that also call the sanctuary their home. We actually finished an hour early so we fed the donkeys and waited by the entrance for a ride home, it wasn't bad waiting in the sunshine with the mountains and rolling hills as a view!
Once we got back, myself and another volunteer walked into town and did the free walking tour which took 3 hours and showed us all the historic features of Brasov which were very interesting. We stopped off at the main square, the black church, the 3rd narrowest street in Europe, listened to some Dracula and Vlad history and more. This was a great way to end the day and I cannot wait for the weekends activities!
Wow, what a day! With working all day everyday Monday to Friday at the bear sanctuary I was planning that Saturdays would be the time for a sleep in… Not this Saturday I woke early to go PARAGLIDING! This was something myself and some of the other girls booked as we knew the landscape and the mountains were so beautiful, so to see them from above would be even more incredible! We arrived at the location with two very cool instructors and talked endlessly all day, the ride up the chair lift was beautiful and this was where the instructor told me about how to take off and land. I felt fairly confident however after seeing some of the other people we didn't know have some difficulty with their take off due to sitting down too early I became a little sceptical. Despite this it was our turn, myself and the instructor were strapped together, I had my GoPro at the ready and we ran down the hill, we kept going until we were lifted into the air and began the stunning journey down to the ground. We were talking while in the air and the take-off went very well I was pleased to hear, then we just enjoyed the sound of the wind and peoples delighted 'woohoos' and so on. This had to have been one of the best experiences of my life! We returned to the flat afterwards and I immediately started to watch the GoPro videos!
Today was yet another early start and me and two other girls visited Peles Castle which is a real Disney looking castle surrounded by forests, mountains and streams with some waterfalls. This truly was the setting of a fairy-tale story! We bought tickets (which were only 5 lei for students) and walked around the grounds and then went to go see inside the castle which was beyond beautiful! Everything was handcrafted and gold and so on! There was a lot to see and we had a great time. We came back to Brasov where we had some lunch and went for a walk around the town.

New study reports 80 percent jump in cyclists treated for injuries at Larimer County hospitals
November 20, 2013|In News|By Dan Porter
Via the 7News http://bit.ly/1iv7MLC
9 bike deaths reported in past seven years
FORT COLLINS, Colo. – A new study by a doctor at University of Colorado Health reports an 80 percent jump in cyclists treated for injuries at Larimer County hospitals from 2006 to 2012.
Dr. Terri Marty started researching the number of patients treated at Poudre Valley Hospital and Medical Center of the Rockies a year and a half ago. The vice chief of surgery, Dr. Marty said she started noticing more patients coming in with injuries due to bike accidents. The injuries ranged from a scrape to serious head trauma, ultimately leading to death. The most common were fractures.
From the data collected, she found there were 325 riders treated at the two hospitals in 2012; compared to 180 in 2006. In the span of seven years, nine riders died.
"We've looked at who's being injured, when they're being injured, how severe their injuries are and their outcomes," Dr. Marty said.
The study also looked at whether the rider was wearing a helmet. 30 percent of the people brought into the trauma centers reported wearing a helmet; six of the nine reported deaths were not.
Marty said the numbers are similar to the numbers in the National Trauma Data Bank with one exception, the time of day. Nationally, most fatal and non-fatal bike verse car accidents happen between 4 p.m to 8 p.m.

El Paso rapper Krystall Poppin set for El Patio Tecate livestream concert this week
Maria Cortes Gonzalez
El Paso Times
From performing at Neon Desert in 2014 and 2015 to opening for Cardi B last year, El Paso rapper Krystall Poppin continues to challenge herself and rise in a male-dominated genre.
El Paso's Desert Daisy has a new single, "Smellin Like Dior." The video with her new label Latium has racked more than 276,000 views on YouTube.
And this week, she's not letting a pandemic stop her from performing in El Patio Tecate's livestream concert Friday, Dec. 18.
The fourth episode of the virtual concert series celebrates Latin hip-hop, R&B and rap artists and is headlined by Grammy Award winning singer Miguel. The concert will be streaming live at 7 p.m. Mountain Time on the Tecate YouTube channel, Facebook or Twitter and online.
"Miguel, MC Magic — these are huge names in the industry and I'm a part of it. Just to be part of something so official makes me feel like, 'Oh, my God, is this serious? This is serious!' " she said.
The brand name of Tecate and the question — of what food she wants on set - should be an indicator it's the real deal.
Poppin hit the ground running in 2015 when she moved to Las Vegas along with her manager, DS Junior. She went from trying her hand at street performing on the strip to overcome performance anxiety, to booking shows to buying an RV and hitting the road in 2018.
"That's when we started traveling all over, doing shows in Atlanta, Nashville, Dallas — just a lot of different cities ... and collaborating and my name started growing. It was one of the funnest times in my life," she said in a Zoom interview from Houston.
In the past three years, the opportunities continued to come. Houston rapper GT Garza saw her music videos and asked her to go on tour with him in 2018-19. They did a 20-city tour.
"I had never been on tour like that. It was hectic, but I learned so much and I think it really shaped me as an artist and rapper. He's an amazing rapper and I learn a lot from him all the time," she said.
After the tour, Garza and his manager invited her to come back to Houston to continue to work and it's where she started to work on her album, "Raw Gold Honey."
It came out in September 2019 and peaked at No. 45 on the iTunes album charts.
During her tour with Garza, she also was contacted about opening for popular rapper Cardi B at the El Paso County Coliseum. The first concert was canceled and had to be rescheduled.
But the second date, Oct. 9, 2019, gave Poppin the chance to promote her new songs from the album. She was ready and El Pasoans were super supportive.
"It really aligned in the most perfect way. It was a really amazing experience. It was the biggest stage that I've been on so far and the crowd was really responsive. I was looking in the crowd and lot of people were singing my music. That was really shocking for me and it was a proud moment," she said.
Seeing Cardi B on top of the charts makes Poppin feel good about the genre for other female rappers, including herself.
"I do definitely feel like it's our time for women in hip-hop ... that gets me excited because I feel like we need more women in the industry," she said.
Poppin would have liked to go on tour for her album at the beginning of 2020, but the coronavirus pandemic stalled her plans. Nevertheless she has kept working on her craft.
She came home to El Paso to check on her family, set up a studio at her sister's house and continued writing and putting out a couple of songs.
"I wanted to make sure I was sharp ... and eventually I came back to Houston," she said.
Poppin, who grew up listening to Notorious B.I.G. because of her parents, said she likes to write fun, uplifting songs. But she also is drawn to writing about the struggles and pain she felt early in life.
Her father died in a fight defending his brother when Poppin was a young girl. She says she was angry a lot and would write about her emotions in poems in journals, which naturally and eventually led to her lyrics.
"I have a song called 'The Desert Daisy' that explores my feelings of pain and to succeed just because I feel that I come from nothing.
"I love writing about that and I feel the songs that I do that on, those are the ones that my fans connect with the most and the songs that I feel are going to help me live throughout time," she said.

There is zero reason t ok use them for voice. The voice socks and the wireless, is OK at best. Has around 85 to 90% reliability.no reason t ok use them for fiber as it is simple resale and a master agent can provide much better choices and better pricing. The bad thing about them m is how they treat people. All the employees who built the company have been ran m out through a myriad of really crappie business practices. Unfortunately someone will need a job and they will work for John and Kris and they will be lied to, driven like dogs paid like paupers, there is zero respect for people here and you are better off working at Walmart and the pay is slightly less. Not telling how many times they changed insurance while I was there. N ok vacation time because that m is frowned on. Field techs.. very bad career move dude. Do not d ok m it , or it will be regretted. And lastly do not get hurt, or sick there because they will drop, you like a hot potato.
Very fast and reliable connection, 500 Mbps. The fixed wireless connection installs in about 2 weeks, unlike fiber estimates for 120 days, or longer. Skyriver link comes with full business SLA support - 99.99% uptime.


LMDE12 using MATE Is there a WALLPAPER CHANGER app? Or a programming statement?
Linux Mint Debian Edition 12 - MATE I have just switched to LMDE 12 using the MATE desktop and I love it! It's super fast and the MATE desktop is exactly what I want...with one tiny exception- The problem is, I have tons of wallpapers in several folders and miss them being randomly displayed. Is there an app that will run on MATE in LMDE 12 release that can be pointed at one or more folders (I have 4 folders) of wallpaper files which will randomly change the wallpaper every x number of minutes? And barring that, what would a linux command program statement have to say, to change the wallpaper on MATE in the LMDE-12 release so that it displays between my upper and lower launch bars? Thanks!
I believe telnet is installed on my desktop but when i go into the file system to find the xinetd/telnet file to edit it i cant find it. I am wanting to setup telnet to work with the iphone app IRPM to remotely shut down my pc. Any ideas?

Team Profile:
The Xenolith Hunters

One of the goals of the EXPLORE project in the Geothermal: The Next Generation research programme is to improve knowledge of the Earth's deep crust under the Taupō Volcanic Zone (TVZ). This will tell us more about how geothermal fluids move and are controlled by deep geological structures, such as faults. But almost all of the TVZ is blanketed by lavas, ash and ignimbrites, and existing boreholes are mere surface pinpricks.
So, how can we get samples of the deep crust? How do we know what's going on down there?
Well, instead of having to drill an ultra-deep (and ultra-expensive) borehole or use indirect geophysical techniques, we are fortunate that some volcanoes have coughed up little pieces of crust in rising magma that has erupted as lava flows. These pieces of crust are called xenoliths (from the Greek 'foreign rock' or 'strange stone' because the rocks are very different from the enclosing lava). In TVZ lava flows, xenoliths typically stand out as being a different colour from the lavas, and range in size from 1-20 cm.

For one week in November 2020, a small GNS Science field party [comprising Nick Mortimer - GNS Science Dunedin, Geoff Kilgour - GNS Science Wairakei, and Hamish Campbell - GNS Science Lower Hutt] went searching for xenoliths on the slopes of Mts Ruapehu, Ngauruhoe and Pukeonake.

The team used GNS Science's Observatory House at Whakapapa as a field base (Photo: Nick Mortimer).
Collecting xenoliths is not easy: most lava flows contain no xenoliths. In ones that do, they are very rare (less than 0.01% by volume), generally small, and they can be difficult to impossible to hammer or chisel out. Despite these problems, 112 separate xenoliths were collected. They show an interesting range in composition, including sugary quartz-rich gneisses, grey fine grained hornfelses and some greywacke and argillite. This variety will be useful to build up a picture of the different sedimentary and metamorphic rocks under the volcanoes, and extrapolate the geology further north to under the geothermal area.

This fieldwork was just a start. Now that the xenoliths have been collected, the analytical work begins, and interpretations will follow that. In a year or two, we expect to know a lot more about the 3D geology of the crust under TVZ, and if an ancient crustal terrane boundary helps control the location of deep geothermal fields.
Check back on this website for updates as the mineralogical, radiometric dating and other work proceeds and we ask the rocks to yield up their secrets and tell their story - like this update about GNG researchers using analogues to explore basement rocks, from the surface.
We thank Ngāti Rangi, Ngāti Tūwharetoa and the Department of Conservation for permission to do fieldwork and collect rock samples in Tongariro National Park.

Andre Drummond and the Detroit Pistons (25-29) will host Bradley Beal and the Washington Wizards (24-32) on Monday February 11 at 7:00 pm in the Little Caesars Arena. The previous matchup between these two teams was on January 21 and finished in an 87-101 defeat for the Pistons. This game will be much different due to the absence of injured superstar guard John Wall. Blake Griffin led the Pistons in all three main categories with twenty-nine points, nine rebounds, and four assists. The Wizards had Trevor Ariza leading the scoring with twenty, Thomas Bryant has twelve rebounds, and Tomas Satoransky had eight assists.
The Washington Wizards played their last game against their trade partner earlier in the week, the struggling Chicago Bulls. The Washington Wizards acquired forwards Jabari Parker and Bobby Portis and a second-round pick for forward Otto Porter Jr. earlier in the week. Bradley Beal led the Wizards with thirty-one points. Chasson Randle and Parker both added twenty points to the Wizards 134-125 victory. Another Wizards trade was forward Markieff Morris for guard Wesley Johnson. Otto Porter Jr.'s first game in a Bulls jersey ended with seventeen points.
Detroit's last game was the second game of the home and home with the New York Knicks. The Pistons won 120-103 in a game dominated by Dennis Smith Jr.'s thirty points and yet another 20-20 game from Andre Drummond (29-20). Other standout players on the Pistons were Blake Griffin with twenty-six points, and twenty-points from Reggie Jackson. The Knicks had eleven points from Mitchell Robinson and fourteen from DeAndre Jordan, but it was all DSJ for the Knicks.
On the surface, this doesn't appear to be a great game, but it really is. This is a big game for the draft order for the Zion Williamson sweepstakes. The Pistons would move from the eleventh best odds to as high as seven. I would predict Detroit's starting five as Jackson, Brown, Kennard, Griffin, Drummond and Washington's as Satoransky, Beal, Ariza, Green, Bryant.I'm going to predict a 115-103 Wizards victory.

You may be able to pass your tenancy on to someone else if you can't live in the property. Your landlord needs to give permission to allow this to happen and will only do it in certain circumstances.
If you move out of the property and allow someone else to live in it without your landlord making that person a tenant, they have no rights to stay in the property and can be easily evicted. If you don't assign the tenancy, you'll remain the legal tenant and the landlord can take legal action against you for any rent owed.
If you can't live in your home anymore, but want someone else who lived with you to become the tenant, you should ask for an assignment. For an assignment to be legal everyone involved must agree to and sign a deed of assignment. A deed is a special legal document. Assignments have to take place by deed even if there was no written agreement for the original tenancy.
Your landlord does not always have to agree to an assignment.
you are exchanging your home with another Housing Executive or housing association tenant and you have the landlord's permission to do this.
If you've been refused permission to assign a tenancy you should speak to an adviser at Housing Rights.
When a joint tenant dies, the other joint tenant will inherit the tenancy and become the sole tenant. That person will become responsible for paying all the rent on the property.
you gave up your own home or tenancy to move in with and care for the deceased.
you aren't a spouse or civil partner of the tenant and have been living in the property for less than 12 months.
You should be given reasons in writing if your application for succession is refused. If you've been refused permission to inherit a tenancy, you can speak to an adviser at Housing Rights to find out if there's anything else you can do.
Most private tenants will only be able to pass their tenancy on to someone else if the landlord agrees to this. The landlord will set up a new tenancy agreement. There is a certain category of private tenant, called protected tenants, who have a legal right to succession. If a protected tenant dies, someone who was living with them may be able to inherit the tenancy.


Harker is proud to be partnering with CMS and Tuckaseegee Elementary to improve education in our community for the second year! We are committed to embracing our community in a way that fosters empathy, advances knowledge and builds foundational relationships. We strive to use our core values and available resources to provide tangible support within our community in order to make a difference in the lives of others.
This school year, the school had a particularly urgent need that we wanted to help address.
Tuckaseegee Elementary has a uniform standard for their students. Uniforms teach students to dress neatly and take pride in their appearance. This promotes self-confidence that can benefit them into adulthood. It also reduces peer pressure and social expectations between students, so they are able to focus more wholly on their education!
Often, children can damage their clothing at school through play or during an accident. Some may not arrive in the proper dress due to family circumstances. If a child is not clothed appropriately, a parent may need to be called and that child has to take time out of their studies to address the concern.
This holiday season, Harker chose to help provide emergency clothing for the Tuckaseegee Elementary Nurse's Station. With the support of businesses in our community, we reached our goal and raised $2000 to purchase emergency clothing supplies for the school! Stocking the Nurse's Station with extra uniforms, underthings and warm outerwear will ensure that children do not have to spend vital educational time waiting for parents to bring them fresh clothes. They won't have to leave campus only to find it's too late in the day to return. Instead, they can remedy the problem quickly and get back to class!
We'd like to thank A&K Painting, Allison Gair, Austin Black @ Bonitz, Beacham Construction, CM Steel, Dianne Almond, Jason Smiley @ Lomax Tile, Mai Reinhold @ Cook & Boardman, Nancy Noto with Clean Rite, Precision Plumbing, Preferred Electric, Warco and all of our Harker team members who donated to this exceptional cause! Thank you all so much for helping us make a positive impact in our community!


Like many metropolitan areas on the Honshu Island, Osaka was virtually leveled by US bombing during World War II. This devastation resulted in makeshift concrete facades, which continue to dominate Osaka's skyline. Despite its lackluster appearance however, Osaka is home to a number of historical and entertainment venues including Osaka Castle, Osaka Aquarium (the largest in Japan!), and Universal Studios Japan.
If Tokyo is Japan's capital, Osaka might be called its anti-capital. Osaka is the main metropolis of the Kansai region, and its inhabitants exhibit a strong rivalry towards the Kanto region, from baseball, food, popular culture, even to which side they ride escalators (on the left in Tokyo, but on the right in Osaka).

Opinion for the Court filed by Circuit Judge D.H. GINSBURG.
D.H. GINSBURG, Circuit Judge:
The Brotherhood of Railway Carmen and the American Train Dispatchers' Association petition for review of orders of the Interstate Commerce Commission issued in separate proceedings before that agency. We dispose of the two cases together because
they raise common issues with respect to the ICC's authority to exempt a party to a merger between railway carriers subject to approval under Sec. 11344 of the Interstate Commerce Act, 49 U.S.C. Sec. 10101, et seq. (the Act), from the provisions of (1) a Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA); and (2) the Railway Labor Act, 45 U.S.C. Sec. 151, et seq.
Because we conclude that the ICC has misperceived, in one important respect, the scope of its exemptive power, we grant each petition for review in part, and remand the records to the ICC for further proceedings.
I. FACTUAL BACKGROUND
The operative facts of the two transactions here at issue, and the background of the respective administrative proceedings, are as follows:
A. The Carmen's Case
In 1980, the ICC approved a proposal under which CSX Corporation, a newly-formed holding company, would acquire control of two other holding companies: (1) the Chessie System, Inc., the principal railroad subsidiaries of which were the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Company (C & O) and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company; and (2) Seaboard Coast Line Industries, Inc., the parent of the Seaboard Coast Line Railroad (Seaboard) (later to become CSX Transportation, Inc., or CSX). CSX Corporation--Control--Chessie System, Inc., and Seaboard Coast Line Industries, Inc., 363 I.C.C. 521 (1980) (CSX Control ).
In its order approving the transaction, the ICC imposed upon the parties a standard set of labor-protective conditions, as required by Sec. 11347 of the Act, 49 U.S.C. Sec. 11347. CSX Control, 363 I.C.C. at 588-92, 604. As usual in merger cases, the applicable conditions were transplanted from the ICC's decision in New York Dock, 360 I.C.C. 60, 84-90 (1979), aff'd, New York Dock Ry. v. United States, 609 F.2d 83 (2d Cir.1979). Section 4 of the New York Dock conditions establishes procedures for the resolution--by means of negotiation and, failing that, binding arbitration--of any labor dispute arising from an ICC-approved railroad consolidation. Accordingly, Sec. 4 requires a "railroad contemplating a transaction which ... may cause the dismissal or displacement of any employees, or rearrangement of forces [to] give at least ninety ... days written notice...." Section 2 is a status quo provision:
The rates of pay, rules, working conditions and all collective bargaining and other rights, privileges and benefits ... under applicable laws and/or existing collective bargaining agreements or otherwise shall be preserved unless changed by future collective bargaining agreements.
In 1986, CSX, invoking Sec. 4 of the New York Dock conditions, notified the labor organizations representing its employees that it intended to close its freight car repair shop at Waycross, Georgia, and to transfer the work performed there to the C & O repair shop at Raceland, Kentucky, and that the transfer would result in a net decrease in available jobs at the two shops. The Brotherhood then attempted, on behalf of certain CSX employees who would be affected by the transfer, to negotiate an agreement governing the labor-related changes that the Waycross-Raceland consolidation would require.
Relations between the Brotherhood (and other unions) and CSX were governed by a CBA--known as the "Orange Book"--that they had negotiated in connection with the 1967 merger that created Seaboard; CSX and the Brotherhood continued to observe these terms after the 1980 CSX Control transaction. The Orange Book provides, with exceptions not here relevant, that the carrier will employ each covered employee for the remainder of his working life, and that no covered employee "shall be deprived of employment or placed in a worse position with respect to compensation, rules, working conditions, fringe benefits or rights and privileges pertaining thereto at any time during such employment." In consideration for this job protection, the Orange Book gives the carrier the right "to transfer the work of the employees protected
[t]hereunder throughout the merged or consolidated [i.e., Seaboard] system...."
The negotiations between CSX and the Brotherhood failed due to disagreements as to (1) whether displaced Waycross employees would retain their Orange Book right to lifetime income; and (2) whether (a) the Waycross-Raceland consolidation would result in a change in working conditions, and, if so, (b) CSX would be required to comply with the terms of Sec. 6 of the RLA, 45 U.S.C. Sec. 156, and thus to bargain before effecting the change. The Brotherhood then invoked the mandatory arbitration provision of the New York Dock conditions, but shortly thereafter, reversed its position and claimed that because the shop consolidation was not contemplated by the CSX Control transaction, the New York Dock conditions were not applicable at all. By then, however, CSX had invoked arbitration under the New York Dock conditions, and the matter came before a three-member arbitration panel (the Carmen Committee), with the Brotherhood participating under protest.
In the proceedings before the Committee, it became clear that CSX sought not only to transfer work from Waycross to Raceland and to reduce the total number of positions, but also (1) to transfer certain Waycross employees to employment by the C & O in Raceland and (2) to remove them from the protection of the Orange Book to coverage under the CBA between the C & O and the Union, which apparently does not contain a lifetime income clause. The Committee held that the Orange Book prohibited CSX from transferring either work or employees outside the Seaboard system created by the 1967 merger. The ICC did not pass upon that determination, but CSX, which has intervened in this appeal, does not dispute it.
The Committee then held, however, that (1) it had the power, "[a]s a quasi-judicial extension of the ICC" to abrogate provisions of a CBA, and to relieve CSX from any requirement of the RLA, that stood in the way of an operational change, such as the shop transfer, that was "authorized or required" by--though not specifically referenced in--the CSX Control decision approving the 1980 merger; and (2) it would (a) abrogate the Orange Book prohibition on the transfer of work, but not on the transfer of employees, outside the old Seaboard system, and (b) exempt CSX from the RLA insofar as it might require the carrier to bargain before unilaterally changing the Orange Book with respect to the work transfer.
The ICC upheld the Committee in other respects, but reversed the Committee's decision not to abrogate the Orange Book prohibition on the transfer of employees as well as work. The ICC further held that, to the extent that switching CSX employees from the Orange Book to the CBA at Raceland would deprive them of their right to income for life, that right would be abrogated. It did not pass upon the question whether the Orange Book did in fact prohibit the transfer of either work or employees but assumed as much.
In its petition for review, the Brotherhood challenges the ICC's authority under the Act to override provisions of the Orange Book and of the RLA. It also claims that the ICC's decision, insofar as it overrides the Orange Book, violates the Compensation Clause of the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution. Finally, it challenges the standard of review that the ICC applied in reversing the Committee's ruling against employee transfers.
B. The Dispatchers' Case
In March 1982, the ICC approved the application of NWS Enterprises, Inc. (now Norfolk Southern, or NS), a holding company, to acquire control of two previously separate carriers--the Norfolk and Western Railway Company (N & W) and the Southern Railway Company (Southern). Norfolk Southern Corp.--Control--Norfolk & Western Ry. Co., 366 I.C.C. 173 (1982) (NS Control ). As in The Carmen's Case, the ICC imposed upon the parties to the transaction the standard New York Dock conditions. Id. at 231.
The American Train Dispatchers' Association was the bargaining representative of certain N & W employees responsible for
power distribution. In September 1986, N & W and Southern informed the Association that they intended "to coordinate certain [N & W] work performed in the System Operations Center ... in Roanoke,...

Karachi Police, Pakistan admitted that the 10-year old girl was shot dead during a police encounter with robbers in Defence on August 13, 2018 was killed by police fire. During a shootout between cops and suspected robbers in the Defence neighborhood a 10-year-old Amal Umer was killed. Amal Umer lost her life after she was hit by a stray bullet during a police encounter in Karachi's Akhtar Colony area. Police have arrested one of the suspect, media reports confirm that a Supreme Court appointed committee will be formed to investigate the death of Amal during a police encounter in Karachi. Amal died because of the shots fired by the police. Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar has mentioned: "We cannot rely on the police". That is why the committee will comprise members of other agencies, such as the Intelligence Bureau. This committee will determine those responsible for a 10-year-old girl's death in Karachi. It will also establish amendments necessary for police training, regulations and treatment of injured persons in hospitals. The advocate general of Sindh, Barrister Aitzaz Ahsan, Lateef Khosa, and Advocate Umaima are part of the committee.
The case of Police negligence in Karachi Pakistan raises a very key issue regarding training of Police and protection of innocents. August 13, 2018 was supposed to have been the dawn of a "Naya Pakistan". And it began on a high: celebrations at school and preparations for Independence Day were in full swing. However, the way the day turned out for a 10-year old's family is not the way they expected. Getting killed by the people who are entrusted with the responsibility to keep communities safe is a great tragedy. According to statistical data on various crimes reported in Karachi, maintained by Citizens-Police Liaison Committee, over one thousand mobile phones were snatched in any given month with the highest number in January 2016 when nearly 1,600 mobile phones were snatched.
A street crime like robbery caused a death of an innocent and this calls in for a systemic police reform in Pakistan. The case of Amal needs to be investigated and appropriate committee recommendations must include mentions of evolved and advanced technologies that help deter crimes in Pakistan.
The case of Amal Umer is not the first but it can be the last. Because iCognative by Brainwave Science is a modern, innovative security technology that can help to find the answers and solve the problem of crime in Pakistan. The main advantage of this new technological solution stands in its ability to distinguish between an innocent and a suspect, by detecting information present in the brain.
With the use of this modern security solution, law enforcement is empowered not with assault weapons like AK47 that took life of Amal but with effective tool that will help gather valuable intelligence from suspects. By standardizing the use of first of-its-kind cost-effective iCognative technology in investigations and interrogations, officers will benefit from a scientific and objective means of solving crimes with accelerated rates of apprehensions of perpetrators and accomplices in any given crime. The involuntary brain response called P300 is the hallmark feature of the technology. The way the human brain functions fully eliminate all possible false negatives, false positives, and countermeasures.
The case of robbery associated with death of Amal might be a petty street crime, but the culprits must see the light of justice. The suspects apprehended in the case of armed robbery on the night that Amal was killed, must be subjected to iCognative test. Case facts published in the media such as: date and time of the incident when suspects were robbing people; location of the incident where police apprehended them; type and caliber of gun used by bandits to fire at police; testimonies of officers on site at that time, etc., can be utilized as Stimuli for the test. During the iCognative test, the stimuli selected for each suspect is flashed on a monitor, while system captures specific crime related brainwaves directly from the source of all information – the human brain. At the end of the test, the system analyses the brain's responses to the respective stimuli through a series of algorithms and determines with 99.9% accuracy if the information is absent or present in the brain of suspect. Thus, distinguishes between a perpetrator/criminal and an innocent person.
Using iCognative Technology Intelligence Bureau can guide Karachi Police investigators in right direction to address problem of growing street crime.


Info "Bounce the spring to break the vase."
Boing! is Wario's boss microgame for the WarioWatch mode in WarioWare: Twisted!
The game involves a spring attached to a person's hand, and the player must tilt the system repeatedly to make the ball go down and smash a vase. Unlike other boss levels, the player must clear it 10 times in the Spindex to get a gold crown.
The player starts off the game with 10 seconds in the Spindex.
1st level difficulty: The vase is close by, so the player only has to shake the Game Boy Advance left and right.
2nd level difficulty: The vase is down lower. When smashed, a spider type creature appears sucking on the ball.
3rd level difficulty: The vase is so low that if the spring misses the vase, the spring immediately goes right back up to the hand.
