New Mexico Attorney General has charged a police officer in the shooting death of a Black man
Oct 3, 2023, 4:38 PM | Updated: 5:18 pm
LAS CRUCES, N.M. (AP) — New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez on Tuesday announced that a police officer has been charged with voluntary manslaughter in the fatal shooting of a Black man during a confrontation at a gas station.
Las Cruces Police Officer Brad Lunsford was booked on the single charge and released on Tuesday morning, a spokesperson for Torrez said. A voicemail left at the office of Lunsford’s attorney, Jess Lilley, was not immediately returned Tuesday afternoon.
Lunsford allegedly shot Presley Eze, 36, on Aug. 2, 2022, at a Las Cruces gas station after an employee of the business called 911 to report he saw Eze leaving with beer he did not pay for, authorities say.
Lunsford was the first officer to arrive. During a scuffle, Eze ended up on the ground on top of a second officer and he placed his hand on that officer’s Taser.
Lunsford drew his handgun and allegedly shot Eze once on the back left side of his head at point-blank range.
Eze’s parents, wife and son joined Torrez for the news conference in Las Cruces to announce the filing of the charge.
Torrez said his office consulted with use-of-force experts who concluded that the use of deadly force was not reasonable under the circumstances.
The attorney general called Eze’s death “another example of poor police tactics resulting in an unjustifiable use of force to subdue an individual resisting arrest for the commission of a minor crime.”


It is not difficult to know how to remove a SIM card from a Nokia phone. A SIM card is a small card that holds your contacts and account information. SIM cards are transferable from phone to phone when the phone is either unlocked or used by the same service provider. Without SIM cards, the phones that do require them will not function. If you have a Nokia phone and need to remove the SIM card for any reason, it is actually an easy process to do.
- Turn the cell phone off. Once the Nokia phone is turned off, turn it over on its back side.
- Remove the back cover. To remove the back cover push with your thumbs firmly against the back cover as you slide it downwards until it completely slides off the back of the phone.
- Remove the battery from the Nokia phone by pulling it up, and the out of the battery compartment.
- Locate the SIM card. The SIM card on a Nokia phone will be located either underneath or above the battery compartment. It will be located in a little metal slot that covers part of the card. The SIM card holder usually says SIM on top of it and sometimes shows a picture of a SIM card bellow it.
- Remove the SIM card by pressing on it gently with your finger and pulling it downwards to slide it away from the SIM card holder. You may have to pull on it quite a few times because it is held in the slot tightly.
- Replace the back battery on your Nokia phone by aligning the gold lines up and gently pushing the battery back into its compartment. Slide the back cover on until it snaps into place.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A former member of the National Labor Relations Board is returning to work at the AFL-CIO, where he will serve as co-general counsel.
Craig Becker spent nearly two years on the board after President Barack Obama bypassed the Senate to make him a recess appointee in 2010. Republicans had blocked Becker's confirmation for months, saying he had had a radical, pro-union agenda that was hostile to business interests.
In the days before Becker's term expired last year, the board issued new rules to speed the pace of union elections. The new rules were suspended after a court found a flaw in how they were adopted.
Becker had worked as a lawyer for both the AFL-CIO and the Service Employees International Union before being named to the labor board.

About 2021 Lexus LC500
T stacks behind your head like a mechanically shuffled deck of cards. In the interest of weight savings and the preservation of trunk volume, the LC 500 convertible instead uses a folding soft top. But its design is not what you'd expect: Lexus has devised a four-layer top that hides the support bows to produce a smooth look. The extra layering is also said to make it quieter than a conventional soft top.
he 2021 Lexus LC500 will have extraordinary design detailing and interior materials. He attract your attention in every situation. It's much the same when you slide behind the wheel, where the watchword is luxury.
New Lexus LC500 will have V8 engine with 5.0-liter. The LC's grand-touring driving character makes you want to head out on a road trip using the scenic route. Only one thing is missing: a convertible top to bring the sights and smells of the outside inside.
That top is not a folding metal roof that
2021 Lexus LC500 performances
The new Lexus LC will reach In15 seconds, and speeds up to 31 mp. In this configuration, the 471-horsepower 5.0-liter V8 engine provides the soundtrack. Its intoxicating throaty exhaust note is an increasing rarity as the competition moves toward turbocharged engine, which tend to lack character unless they are enhanced by synthetic tomfoolery pumped in via the speakers.
We happen to like top-down driving in the evening and into the night. But in many drop-tops, such excursions can overly chill the participants. The LC 500 convertible has an enhanced climate control system that's set up to compensate in such situations. It automatically makes certain adjustments to airflow when the top is lowered. And in addition to the usual heated seats and steering wheel, the LC convertible has neck heaters and extra vents directed at the driver's hands.
Main competitors and prices
The BMW 8 Series convertible is configured similar to the LC 500 convertible, but it is an all-wheel-drive machine powered by a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine. Known as the M850i xDrive convertible, it costs upward of $121,000.
Second big competitor is Mercedes SL Class. He have a rear-wheel-drive machine available with three engines. The SL 550 has a 4.7-liter twin-turbo V8 and costs over $114,000, and at the top there's the AMG SL 63 with a stonking 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 for over $155,000.
The Lexus undercuts all these V8-powered luxury competitors, and it offers a strong alternative to German styling.
The closest point of comparison for the LC 500 convertible might actually be the Jaguar F-Type, which offers three engines, a choice of rear- or all-wheel drive, and price tags ranging from about $65,000 to well over $125,000. You can get a lovely sounding V8 F-Type convertible for a bit over $90,000, and like the LC you'll have a questionable infotainment interface, small trunk and tight cabin with the roof up. But in the Jaguar, none of that matters as much when you have a chance to put the top down away from traffic — we're optimistic the Lexus can pull off the same trick.
Release date and price for 2021 Lexus LC 500
Release date for 2021 Lexus LC 500 will be in Summer 2020. Average price for this model will be $99,000.00.

Months after finalllllly splitting with longtime girlfriend Kristen Stewart (who cheated on him with her “Snow White and the Huntsman” director) and dipping his glitter-y man stick in Katy Perry and Riley Keough, has Robert Pattinson got himself a new lady love? Us Weekly says that the “Twilight” star has been dating 22-year-old model Dylan Penn for two months. Dylan is the daughter of Sean Penn and Robin Wright, who divorced in 2010 and also have a 20-year-old son named Hopper together. Robert and Dylan have been spotted “canoodling” and she has apparently visited him on the set of one of his movies [that no one cares about because it's not "Twilight"]. Hmm, I don’t know anything about Dylan — other than she is obviously very beautiful thanks to those half-Spicoli, half-Buttercup genes — but I do know Papa Penn has a notoriously bad temper, so I hope RPattz doesn’t go breaking any hearts and his fans don’t do any excessive smack-talking. [Us Weekly]
Ok, so I was just as appalled and shocked as anyone else when Kristen Stewart cheated on Robert Pattinson withRupert Sanders, but seriously — can’t this poor girl catch a break now that the scandal is behind her?
I mean, it was pretty understandable that immediately after the Rupert thing went down, Kristen was hit with a whole slew of other cheating rumors, but now that it’s almost five months later, you’d think the accusations would have died down. (Rob forgave her, so why can’t everyone else?)
Instead, it seems like the claims about her hooking up with other men keep getting crazier and crazier — and now there’s new speculation that she slept with Sean Penn to land her role in ”Into the Wild.” Read more…
Amelia might be laying on a beach in Tulum, Mexico, this week, but her
deep abiding love obsession with Ryan Gosling is still with us. In her honor, here’s The Gos’ new trailer for “The Gangster Squad,” a cops-and-robbers movie about gangsters in 1940′s L.A., co-starring luckiest-bitch-in-the-world Emma Stone. Yup, she gets to make out with Ryan again. Oh, hey, and Josh Brolin and Anthony Mackie is in this film as well and they’re pretty easy on the eyes, too. Enjoy! [YouTube]
I’m looking forward to to seeing Sean Penn’s upcoming film, “This Must Be The Place,” where he plays a rich, depressed ’80s musician married to a fire fighter. His character, Cheyenne, is loosely based on director Paul Sorrentino and Robert Smith of The Cure with a dash of Iggy Pop and David Byrne — which means he’s a goth. Yesss! Even though some might say guyliner and Doc Martins are not the most flattering on Sean, his bravery to go goth makes him hot to me. “I’m quite convinced that there will be plenty of audience reaction [to my look] that is — I’m going to use the word ‘challenged.’ But there was a choice to make, I made it,” Sean said. That’s right Sean, goth is a choice. And you wear it well. I’ll always have a soft spot for a goth man. So sensitive, so depressed, so sexy in black, so skilled at doing the pain dance. You can take the girl out of the goth club, but you can’t take the goth club out of the girl. I’ve rounded up some of the hottest goths onscreen. Keep on clicking for your daily dose of goth porn.

Dress to Kill
Dress To Kill is the title of a performance by Eddie Izzard, and is a continuation of the British comedian’s surrealist, ideas-based comedy. The VHS was recorded during a performance in San Francisco, California, United States. However, the tour was a global one. During this tour Izzard also wrote the book Dress to Kill with David Quantick, which was published by Virgin Books in hardback in 1998 and in paperback in 2000.
Izzard’s humour includes observations on the American concept of history, beginning with his throwaway line “I grew up in Europe, where the history comes from” and continuing through diversions about the belief that all Europeans live in castles and the attitude of Americans toward historical landmarks. Additionally, Izzard takes time to explain his background as an executive transvestite and how it affected his desire to join the military. This is explained through a proposal for the Army’s “first battalion transvestite brigade…with fantastic makeup and a fantastic gun.”
The centerpiece of the performance is a retelling of British history from Stonehenge through to the Reformation. This is done with Izzard adopting a very Italian accent to signify the Pope talking to Henry VIII and explaining that he can’t marry as many wives as he wants to. This is set against the backdrop of Martin Luther pinning his 95 Theses on the door of Wittenberg Cathedral, a paper that reads “Eine Minuten bitte. Ich habe einen kleinen Problemo avec diese Religione.” “He was from everywhere,” explains Izzard to great cheers from the audience. Similar to his use of Sean Connery as the voice of Henry VIII, he uses the voice of James Mason as the voice of God.

Mine are just like Phil's.Mine dont go all the way on but not as loose as your telling us..main problem I can see is either the top of the strut is touching the inside of the cap or the cap is touching the captive strut nut..
Bit of a measure ..distance from captive nut to top of strut and the distance inside the new cap..nothing a drill wont sort out..Mine are just like Phil's.
When I get a bit o spare time, I am going to have a good look at them to see if they can be modded to fit a bit better...
4) if it should never move again - use...just fitted a pair of FIAT 500 strut caps as recommended - they are secure but don't seat around the edge as well as I'd like, so I think I'll run a bead of silicone sealant around the mating surface...
...silicone sealant is the 3rd item every toolbox needs:
1) if it moves when it shouldn't - use duck tape
2) if it doesn't move, and it should - use WD40
3) if it doesn't seal properly - use silicone!
Top marks on this post..They should actually screw onto the bolt sticking up from the suspension strut - If you push them on, you will never get them to fit snugly. Mine have been on for 2.5 years now, and never moved once. I bought the Fiat 500 ones - perfect fit!
Wrap some tape around the 3 fingers on the underside to pull them in slightly tighter..then try screwing one on gently..I couldn't get them to fit tight either. Tried screwing and mine are Fiat 500. Perhaps the amount of exposed thread varies. I used large diameter O rings to fill the gap 62 mm X 3 mm.

|Native name: |
Mokupuni o Hawai‘i
The Windward Iswands
|Location||Norf Pacific Ocean|
|Unincorporated territory||Midway Atoww|
The Hawaiian Iswands (Hawaiian: Mokupuni o Hawai‘i) are an archipewago of eight major iswands, severaw atowws, numerous smawwer iswets, and seamounts in de Norf Pacific Ocean, extending some 1,500 miwes (2,400 kiwometers) from de iswand of Hawaiʻi in de souf to nordernmost Kure Atoww. Formerwy de group was known to Europeans and Americans as de Sandwich Iswands, a name dat James Cook chose in honor of de den First Lord of de Admirawty John Montagu, 4f Earw of Sandwich. The contemporary name, dating from de 1840s, is derived from de name of de wargest iswand, Hawaiʻi Iswand. The iswands were "discovered" by de european navigator Áwvaro de Saavedra Cerón in 1527.
Awdough Hawaii is a U.S. state, it is onwy part of de U.S. powiticawwy and not geographicawwy connected to Norf America. The state of Hawaii occupies de archipewago awmost in its entirety (incwuding de mostwy uninhabited Nordwestern Hawaiian Iswands), wif de sowe exception of Midway Iswand, which instead separatewy bewongs to de United States as one of its unincorporated territories widin de United States Minor Outwying Iswands.
The Hawaiian Iswands are de exposed peaks of a great undersea mountain range known as de Hawaiian–Emperor seamount chain, formed by vowcanic activity over a hotspot in de Earf's mantwe. The iswands are about 1,860 miwes (3,000 km) from de nearest continent.
Iswands and reefs
Captain James Cook visited de iswands on January 18, 1778, and named dem de "Sandwich Iswands" in honor of John Montagu, 4f Earw of Sandwich, who as de First Lord of de Admirawty was one of his sponsors. This name was in use untiw de 1840s, when de wocaw name "Hawaii" graduawwy began to take precedence.
The Hawaiian Iswands have a totaw wand area of 6,423.4 sqware miwes (16,636.5 km2). Except for Midway, which is an unincorporated territory of de United States, dese iswands and iswets are administered as Hawaii—de 50f state of de United States.
(as of 2010)
|Density||Highest point||Ewevation||Age (Ma)||Location|

The eight main iswands of Hawaii (awso cawwed de Hawaiian Windward Iswands) are wisted here. Aww except Kahoowawe are inhabited.
Smawwer iswands, atowws, reefs
- Nihoa (Mokumana)
- Necker (Mokumanamana)
- French Frigate Shoaws (Kānemiwohaʻi)
- Gardner Pinnacwes (Pūhāhonu)
- Maro Reef (Nawukākawa)
- Laysan (Kauō)
- Lisianski Iswand (Papaʻāpoho)
- Pearw and Hermes Atoww (Howoikauaua)
- Midway Atoww (Pihemanu)
- Kure Atoww (Mokupāpapa)
The state of Hawaii counts 137 "iswands" in de Hawaiian chain, uh-hah-hah-hah. This number incwudes aww minor iswands and iswets (very smaww iswands) offshore of de main iswands (wisted above) and individuaw iswets in each atoww. These are just a few:
- Ford Iswand (Mokuʻumeʻume)
- Mōkōwea Rock
- Nā Mokuwua
- Moku Manu
- Moku Owa (Coconut Iswand, Hawaii)
- Moku o Loʻe (Coconut Iswand, Oahu)
- Sand Iswand
- Grass Iswand
This chain of iswands, or archipewago, devewoped as de Pacific Pwate swowwy moved nordwestward over a hotspot in de Earf's mantwe at a rate of approximatewy 32 miwes (51 km) per miwwion years. Thus, de soudeast iswand is vowcanicawwy active, whereas de iswands on de nordwest end of de archipewago are owder and typicawwy smawwer, due to wonger exposure to erosion. The age of de archipewago has been estimated using potassium-argon dating medods. From dis study and oders, it is estimated dat de nordwesternmost iswand, Kure Atoww, is de owdest at approximatewy 28 miwwion years (Ma); whiwe de soudeasternmost iswand, Hawaiʻi, is approximatewy 0.4 Ma (400,000 years). The onwy active vowcanism in de wast 200 years has been on de soudeastern iswand, Hawaiʻi, and on de submerged but growing vowcano to de extreme soudeast, Loʻihi. The Hawaiian Vowcano Observatory of de USGS documents recent vowcanic activity and provides images and interpretations of de vowcanism. Kīwauea had been erupting nearwy continuouswy since 1983 when it stopped August 2018.
Awmost aww of de magma of de hotspot has de composition of basawt, and so de Hawaiian vowcanoes are composed awmost entirewy of dis igneous rock. There is very wittwe coarser-grained gabbro and diabase. Nephewinite is exposed on de iswands but is extremewy rare. The majority of eruptions in Hawaiʻi are Hawaiian-type eruptions because basawtic magma is rewativewy fwuid compared wif magmas typicawwy invowved in more expwosive eruptions, such as de andesitic magmas dat produce some of de spectacuwar and dangerous eruptions around de margins of de Pacific basin, uh-hah-hah-hah.
Hawaiʻi iswand (de Big Iswand) is de biggest and youngest iswand in de chain, buiwt from five vowcanoes. Mauna Loa, taking up over hawf of de Big Iswand, is de wargest shiewd vowcano on de Earf. The measurement from sea wevew to summit is more dan 2.5 miwes (4 km), from sea wevew to sea fwoor about 3.1 miwes (5 km).
The Hawaiian Iswands have many eardqwakes, generawwy caused by vowcanic activity. Most of de earwy eardqwake monitoring took pwace in Hiwo, by missionaries Titus Coan, Sarah J. Lyman and her famiwy. Between 1833 and 1896, approximatewy 4 or 5 eardqwakes were reported per year.
Hawaii accounted for 7.3% of de United States' reported eardqwakes wif a magnitude 3.5 or greater from 1974 to 2003, wif a totaw 1533 eardqwakes. Hawaii ranked as de state wif de dird most eardqwakes over dis time period, after Awaska and Cawifornia.
On October 15, 2006, dere was an eardqwake wif a magnitude of 6.7 off de nordwest coast of de iswand of Hawaii, near de Kona area of de big iswand. The initiaw eardqwake was fowwowed approximatewy five minutes water by a magnitude 5.7 aftershock. Minor-to-moderate damage was reported on most of de Big Iswand. Severaw major roadways became impassabwe from rock swides, and effects were fewt as far away as Honowuwu, Oahu, nearwy 150 miwes (240 km) from de epicenter. Power outages wasted for severaw hours to days. Severaw water mains ruptured. No deads or wife-dreatening injuries were reported.
On May 4, 2018 dere was a 6.9 eardqwake in de zone of vowcanic activity from Kīwauea.
The Hawaiian Iswands are subject to tsunamis, great waves dat strike de shore. Tsunamis are most often caused by eardqwakes somewhere in de Pacific. The waves produced by de eardqwakes travew at speeds of 400–500 miwes per hour (600–800 km/h) and can affect coastaw regions dousands of miwes (kiwometers) away.
Tsunamis may awso originate from de Hawaiian Iswands. Expwosive vowcanic activity can cause tsunamis. The iswand of Mowokaʻi had a catastrophic cowwapse or debris avawanche over a miwwion years ago; dis underwater wandswide wikewy caused tsunamis. The Hiwina Swump on de iswand of Hawaiʻi is anoder potentiaw pwace for a warge wandswide and resuwting tsunami.
A tsunami resuwting from an eardqwake in Chiwe hit de iswands on February 27, 2010. It was rewativewy minor, but wocaw emergency management officiaws utiwized de watest technowogy and ordered evacuations in preparation for a possibwe major event. The Governor decwared it a "good driww" for de next major event.
A tsunami resuwting from an eardqwake in Japan hit de iswands on March 11, 2011. It was rewativewy minor, but wocaw officiaws ordered evacuations in preparation for a possibwe major event. The tsunami caused about $30.1 miwwion in damages.
The iswands are home to a muwtitude of endemic species. Since human settwement, first by Powynesians, non native trees, pwants, and animaws were introduced. These incwuded species such as rats and pigs, dat have preyed on native birds and invertebrates dat initiawwy evowved in de absence of such predators. The growing popuwation of humans has awso wed to deforestation, forest degradation, treewess grasswands, and environmentaw degradation, uh-hah-hah-hah. As a resuwt, many species which depended on forest habitats and food became extinct—wif many current species facing extinction, uh-hah-hah-hah. As humans cweared wand for farming, monocuwturaw crop production repwaced muwti-species systems.
The arrivaw of de Europeans had a more significant impact, wif de promotion of warge-scawe singwe-species export agricuwture and wivestock grazing. This wed to increased cwearing of forests, and de devewopment of towns, adding many more species to de wist of extinct animaws of de Hawaiian Iswands. As of 2009[update], many of de remaining endemic species are considered endangered.
On June 15, 2006, President George W. Bush issued a pubwic procwamation creating Papahānaumokuākea Marine Nationaw Monument under de Antiqwities Act of 1906. The Monument encompasses de nordwestern Hawaiian Iswands and surrounding waters, forming de wargest marine wiwdwife reserve in de worwd. In August 2010, UNESCO's Worwd Heritage Committee added Papahānaumokuākea to its wist of Worwd Heritage Sites. On August 26, 2016, President Barack Obama greatwy expanded Papahānaumokuākea, qwadrupwing it from its originaw size.
The cwimate of de Hawaiian Iswands is tropicaw but it experiences many different cwimates, depending on awtitude and weader. The iswands receive most rainfaww from de trade winds on deir norf and east fwanks (de windward side) as a resuwt of orographic precipitation. Coastaw areas in generaw and especiawwy de souf and west fwanks or weeward sides, tend to be drier.
In generaw, de wowwands of Hawaiian Iswands receive most of deir precipitation during de winter monds (October to Apriw). Drier conditions generawwy prevaiw from May to September. The tropicaw storms, and occasionaw hurricanes, tend to occur from Juwy drough November.
During de summer monds de average temperature is about 84 °F (29 °C), in de winter monds it is approximatewy 78,8 °F (26°C). As de temperature is rewativewy constant over de year de probabiwity of dangerous dunderstorms is approximatewy wow.

It's all to do with ullage in the fuel tanks. Newton's laws of motion mean that when a rocket is no longer firing and no force is being applied, the rocket receives no acceleration. It continues at its same velocity (if we assume a perfect model). The fuel in the tanks goes into free-fall, just as the astronauts do when they reach orbit. You've seen those soft toys going floating around the cabin when the Soyuz engines cut off.
The fuel also acts a bit like a passenger in a car when you brake hard. Instead of being pushed back in their seats when accelerating, they fly the other way, towards the windscreen. That's why we use seatbelts. The same for the fuel in those huge tanks. It goes whoosh; right to the other end of the tank, the farthest distance from the rocket motor. The problem is, you want it at the rocket motor end. If the fuel is not at the "bottom" of the tank the pumps spin on empty, and can burn out with nothing to suck on.
There are two solutions to this problem. Some craft have ullage motors which are little engines, sometimes just thruster jets or a release of compressed gas. You can see them in many videos of other craft that do not have this mesh. (Not to be confused with the pump exhaust nozzle, but that is another matter entirely!) It often looks like a small exhaust pipe near the engine. They can sometimes just be a small solid fuel engine, much like a firecracker. Their only function is to move (slosh) the fuel down to the pumps. The pumps start, and then the engine fires. Whoosh; rocket starts. Now all this fuel sloshing about can cause stability problems for the craft, so they design the tank with special anti-slosh baffles.
Here we can see those various features in the Saturn V second stage:
If you want to avoid the extra complexity, controls, fuel, mechanisms and just plain mass and money in your rocket, you can do it the Russian way. Just turn on the next stage while the previous one is still applying force. No need for ullage equipment. However, you have to make somewhere for all that hot exhaust gas (and its force) to go. The easiest way is to make a slight gap between the stages so you then get less of a baba-boom. It also has the nice advantage of pushing the completed stage away from the craft and back towards the planet, which is usually what you want. It might make the rocket taller, but it keeps the mass and complexity down, which is usually what you want.

The Australian subsidiary of Bauer Media Group today (Friday) finally completed the A$46.6m acquisition of its key rival Pacific Magazines from Seven West Media (SWM). It had vainly tried to re-negotiate (or withdraw from) a deal which had been struck months before the Covid-19 outbreak. Bauer has paid A$40m in cash and will provide SWM with A$6.6m in magazine advertising.
The deal gives Bauer Media Australia perhaps 70% of the magazines market. In a post-Covid world, where profits have been decimated by falling ad revenues, that dominance may seem not to mean very much. But the enlarged company’s tight grip on newsstand sales (which account for the majority of revenue) will ultimately deliver a recovery in profits, as will further cost savings.
With substantially all of Australia’s best-known magazines, the company can become successful again. Monopolies can manage that.
Completion of the Pacific deal followed this week’s decision by Bauer to suspend the printing of “certain titles”, 70 redundancies and up to 70 furloughed employees. While Bauer did not confirm which magazines would be suspended, they are believed to include the fashion monthlies Harper’s Bazaar, Elle, and the gossip weeklies OK! and NW.
It is significant that the acquired Pacific portfolio includes the fashion magazine Marie Claire and the gossip weeklies New Idea and Who Weekly. In effect, Bauer has made cuts to its existing magazines rather than immediately closing any of those it is acquiring. It is, therefore, treading carefully round public and political opinion. Nobody really doubts that further consolidation of brands will be necessary, especially if advertising does not rebound substantially after the end of Covid restrictions.
For now, though, the changes will help to maximise the results of the combined portfolio – despite the Bauer assurance that “The affected brands’ digital assets will continue to operate. The decision to resume print publication will be made once the trading environment improves.” Mmm.
Pacific’s most profitable magazine is Better Homes & Gardens which, with Bauer’s homes and food portfolio, may become the strongest part of the combined business.
The sale of Pacific Magazines had been vital to Seven West Media which needs to reduce its A$541m borrowings. The country’s second largest TV network is also in sale and leaseback talks for the A$75m headquarters of its West Australian Newspapers. Some kind of deal involving its TV Channel 7 and News Corp still looks likely.
Meanwhile, Bauer’s next move may be the sale of its Australian company. Having abruptly closed down its New Zealand subsidiary (whose portfolio may now be sold-off piecemeal), the German-owned media group is believed to have been approached recently by would-be buyers. Several private equity firms are interested, and so they should be. The former ACP Magazines, under CEO Brendon Hill, now represents a prime opportunity for a range of tech-savvy investors.
During the competition regulator’s review of the Pacific deal, Bauer had admitted it was in “advanced negotiations” to sell the company to Mercury Capital, of Sydney. These talks were said to have been ended by the virus outbreak. But a sale – to someone – is now highly likely. The AsiaPacific nightmare may soon be over for the Bauer family.

Paper No. 21
Presentation Time: 9:00 AM-6:30 PM
EVALUATION OF CHANGES IN DEPOSITIONAL ENVIRONMENTS AND THEIR IMPACTS ON THE EARLY PALEOCENE (MIDDLE PUERCAN) MAMMALIAN FOSSIL RECORD IN THE NACIMIENTO FORMATION, SAN JUAN BASIN, NEW MEXICO
The Paleocene Nacimiento Formation located in the San Juan Basin, New Mexico, has long been studied for its diverse mammalian faunas; the type faunas of the Puercan and Torrejonian North American Land Mammal “ages” (NALMAs). The Nacimiento is a thick (up to 500m) succession of cyclically interstratified fluvial deposits and paleosols. Within the Nacimiento, mammalian fossils are often found in discrete beds that are separated by “barren zones” devoid of fossils. To date, studies that link the faunal record to the depositional environments in the Nacimiento are lacking. Evaluation of this link is important to better understand why mammalian fossils are restricted to discrete beds and will potentially help explain the factors that caused this restriction. This project focuses on determining what, if any, environmental changes are observed in the lowest portion (~15-25m) of the Nacimiento Formation. The study interval contains the lowest Nacimiento Formation vertebrate fossil horizon which yields the middle Puercan (Pu2) faunas. Six sections were measured across a ~500m continuous outcrop exposure, and include detailed documentation of sedimentological and pedological features of both the Pu2 horizon and the bracketing successions. Alluvial deposits and paleosols are organized within 6-13 (depending on measured section) thin (~2m) “fluvial aggradational cycles” (FAC). Sandstones within each FAC were sampled to establish mineralogic composition for provenance analysis, and paleosols weathered into FACs were described and sampled to determine relative maturity, drainage and paleoclimate conditions. Detailed description of the one- and two-dimensional distribution of FACs and associated paleosols allows reconstruction of the depositional, geomorphic and paleoclimatic conditions within a time-stratigraphic framework. This evolving history, in turn, is compared to the biological record to detect any changes in depositional and/or climatic conditions that may account for the variable preservation of mammalian fossils.

Commonwealth v. JohnstonAnnotate this Case
373 Mass. 21 (1977)
364 N.E.2d 1211
COMMONWEALTH vs. RICHARD ALLAN JOHNSTON.
Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, Middlesex.
April 5, 1977.
July 5, 1977.
Present: HENNESSEY, C.J., QUIRICO, BRAUCHER, WILKINS, & ABRAMS, JJ.
John P. White, Jr. (Christopher Dye with him) for the defendant.
James W. Sahakian, Assistant District Attorney, for the Commonwealth.
The defendant appeals his conviction of murder in the first degree. At trial he offered the testimony of a psychiatrist as to whether the defendant's confession was the product of a rational mind, and the testimony was excluded. We hold that the exclusion was error, and order a new trial.
The Commonwealth presented evidence of the following facts. The defendant, eighteen years old, drank brandy and beer and smoked marihuana over a period of several hours in the evening of January 14, 1975. About 1:30 A.M. on January 15, he got into a fight outside a bar in Newton. Friends drove him to his home, and during the drive he said he wanted to "go back and get those kids." At his home he went in and came back to the car with a .22 caliber rifle. His friends tried to talk him out of "getting" the "kids" and one friend invited him to "sleep it off" at his *22 house. About 1:50 A.M. that friend called a taxicab for the defendant who by that time had changed his mind about sleeping over. The victim, a cabdriver, drove the defendant to the P-1 level of the Holiday Inn in Newton. There the defendant shot the victim six times, killing him, and then drove the taxicab to his home. The gun was a single-shot, bolt-action rifle, and had to be unloaded and reloaded each time it was fired. It probably took several minutes for the victim to become unconscious.
In response to a telephone call from the defendant's mother, two police officers arrived at his home about 2:30 A.M. As they entered they saw the defendant shaking his father and saying, "That ... movie, that ... movie. Why did you let me see it? Death Wish. He is dead. He is dead. I know he is dead. I shot him in the head. He is bleeding from the mouth. He is dead. P-1, P-1, Holiday Inn." The police handcuffed the defendant and seated him on a kitchen chair. He yelled, "Don't send me to Bridgewater. Nothing but a bunch of queers there." The defendant's father showed the police a .22 caliber rifle which had been recently fired, and they found eleven live bullets and six spent shells in the pocket of the defendant's jacket.
After the defendant was taken to the police station and was given Miranda warnings, he gave an account of the evening's events substantially in harmony with the foregoing. The defendant was upset, appeared to have been drinking, and was perhaps under the influence of alcohol. There was expert testimony, based on blood alcohol tests made on the morning of January 15, that the defendant was intoxicated. A psychiatrist testified for the defendant that the defendant was suffering from chronic paranoid schizophrenia, "megalomanic type," and that he did not have the substantial capacity to conform his conduct to the requirements of the law. In rebuttal two psychiatrists testified for the Commonwealth that the defendant had the capacity to appreciate the wrongfulness of his conduct and to conform his conduct with the requirements of the law.
In the view we take, we need consider only the judge's refusal to permit the defendant's psychiatrist to testify to *23 his opinion whether the defendant's statements to the police were the product of a rational mind. But consideration of that issue requires examination of the rulings made on the defendant's admissions and confession.
1. The pre-trial motion to suppress. Before trial the defendant moved to suppress all his statements, admissions, and confessions made on or about January 15 and 16, 1975. After an extensive hearing, the motion judge made detailed findings of fact and rulings of law. The judge concluded that the arrest of the defendant was made on probable cause, and that the statements volunteered at his home prior to police interrogation were the product of a rational intellect and free will, but that it was not sufficiently shown that the defendant clearly understood and waived his constitutional rights in the police cruiser on the way to the police station. At the police station Miranda warnings were given at least twice; although the defendant had consumed a considerable amount of alcohol, he was coherent and articulate, made logical and appropriate responses, and made a knowing and intelligent waiver. Accordingly, the judge suppressed a statement made by the defendant in the police cruiser, but ruled that the volunteered statements made at his home and the confession given at the police station were admissible.
2. Rulings at trial. The trial judge admitted in evidence the defendant's statements made in his kitchen before any police questions, but excluded evidence of kitchen statements made in response to police questions. He was concerned that the latter statements resulted from "an interrogation initiated by the police without the Miranda warnings." The police station confession, however, was admitted in evidence. We assume for present purposes, without deciding, that those rulings were correct. In view of the disharmony between the rulings of the motion judge and those of the trial judge, however, we think the defendant will be free, in the event of a new trial, to make a new motion to suppress and to obtain a new hearing thereon.
The defendant called a psychiatrist as a witness and asked a hypothetical question calculated to elicit the doctor's *24 opinion as to whether the station house confession was "the product of a rational mind." No offer of proof was made, but the doctor had given a negative answer in the suppression hearing. The judge recognized that if he determined that a confession was voluntary, he should then leave the same issue to the jury. But he ruled that the issue whether there was an intelligent waiver of constitutional rights was for the judge to the exclusion of the jury. He therefore excluded the evidence.
In submitting the case to the jury, however, the judge said, "Any statement given by a defendant to the police has to be a voluntary one, and you must determine whether or not it was voluntary or involuntary. A confession is involuntary unless it is the product of a rational intellect and a free will.... Then, of course, if you find that [the defendant's will was overborne], you should disregard that statement."
3. The error. Under our practice the voluntariness of a confession is to be determined by the judge in the first instance. If he rules that a confession is voluntary, he submits the same question to the jury, instructing them not to consider the confession if they find it not to be voluntary. The judicial finding is required by the Federal Constitution; the subsequent jury determination is not, but is a "humane practice" well established in this Commonwealth. See Commonwealth v. Harris, 371 Mass. 462, 467-474 (1976), and cases cited.
The mental condition of the defendant must be considered in determining whether a confession is "the product of any meaningful act of volition." Commonwealth v. Masskow, 362 Mass. 662, 666 (1972), quoting from Blackburn v. Alabama, 361 U.S. 199, 211 (1960). Eisen v. Picard, 452 F.2d 860, 863-865 (1st Cir.1971), cert. denied, 406 U.S. 950 (1972). Cf. Commonwealth v. Bys, 370 Mass. 350, 363-365 (1976) (mentally retarded defendant); Commonwealth v. Daniels, 366 Mass. 601, 609 (1975) (same). The Appeals Court has held that issues as to compliance with Miranda requirements need not be submitted to the jury. Commonwealth v. Polidoro, 4 Mass. App. Ct. 794 *25 (1976). Cf. Commonwealth v. Hosey, 368 Mass. 571, 577-579 (1975) (defendant arrested for drunkenness). It has been suggested elsewhere that such submission is undesirable in view of the complexity of the requirements. See People v. Sanchez, 65 Cal. 2d 814 (1967), vacated on other grounds, 70 Cal. 2d 562, cert. dismissed, 394 U.S. 1025 (1969); State v. Hampton, 61 N.J. 250, 269 (1972). Cf. State v. Perry, 14 Ohio St.2d 256, 265-266 (1968). But in a proper case the jury may consider such compliance as going to the weight of the defendant's statements. See 2 C.A. Wright, Federal Practice and Procedure § 414 (1969). Cf. Commonwealth v. Valcourt, 333 Mass. 706, 711 (1956). We think the judge was correct in submitting to the jury the question whether the confession was the product of a rational intellect as part of the issue of voluntariness. It follows that he erred in excluding psychiatric testimony bearing directly on that question. Commonwealth v. Jones, 459 Pa. 62, 67-68 (1974). People v. Joyce, 233 N.Y. 61, 69-71 (1922). Cf. Lokos v. Capps, 528 F.2d 576, 578 (5th Cir.1976).
4. Prejudice. The Commonwealth argues that the exclusion of the evidence in question was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt in view of other testimony supporting the defense of insanity. The testimony in question bore on the voluntariness of the defendant's confession, and it is rare that the erroneous consideration of a confession is treated as harmless error. In the present case, however, the evidence that the defendant killed the victim was overwhelming, and error affecting only that issue might be harmless. Cf. Commonwealth v. Masskow, 362 Mass. 662, 668 (1972).
The confession and the question whether it was the product of a rational mind also bore on the issue of insanity. Psychiatrists called by the Commonwealth were permitted to analyze the confession to show that the defendant had substantial capacity to appreciate the wrongfulness of his conduct. But the psychiatrist called by the defendant was not permitted to give testimony about the confession which might have led the jury to disregard it. *26 The excluded testimony might thus have lent support to his conclusion that the defendant was unable to conform his conduct to the requirements of the law. Since the sanity of the defendant was the principal issue tried, it cannot be said that the error in excluding this testimony was harmless. Accordingly, the case must be remanded to the Superior Court for a new trial.
Verdict set aside.

If you recall from a few weeks back, I recently sported this blue wool dress, sharing my newfound love for the San Francisco-based design duo -- Mina + Olya. What I didn't share, however, is how I just came to meet these lovely ladies. While I had admired them from afar (especially after Erin's post about them here) I hadn't actually tried on one of their pieces until their team graciously shared one with me to style for myself. Naturally, I jumped at the opportunity. Their designs are perfect for a working woman's wardrobe -- polished, timeless silhouettes with an element of surprise in the details and fabric. (Plus, their manufacturing processes are completely sustainable and based in the Bay Area.)
The dress was, needless to say, a hit at work, after which I headed out to a few evening events where I bumped into Olya herself. We were standing in the middle of the H&M Margiela pre-launch shopping event chaos, arms full of clothes we had just grabbed, both totally surprised and delighted to meet the other! We promptly made plans for me to visit their studio, and of course, to meet Mina -- all of which was a perfect way to spend this past Sunday. Being former colleagues at a financial consulting firm (they quickly bonded over their love of good clothing and design), Mina and Olya chatted with me about how they first started out, the challenges and triumphs of launching your own business with your best friend and how to find the perfect fabric.
Here are just a few snaps from my afternoon with them -- I hope you enjoy! And be sure to stay tuned for an extra special outfit post tomorrow. You might be seeing a particular Mina + Olya design around these parts...
Above left: Inspiration swatches on one of their moodboards. Above right: Took a lot of strength to walk away without this forest green dress in my bag.

Former Southern Miss star Nick Sandlin worked a 1-2-3 inning, capped by a strikeout, in his major league debut today for Cleveland. The sidearming right-hander, who had former big league catcher A.J. Pierzynski raving about his stuff on the FS1 broadcast, retired the Chicago White Sox’s Leury Garcia on a fly ball, Tim Anderson on a bouncer to third base and Adam Eaton via punchout in the sixth inning at Guaranteed Rate Field in Chicago. Sandlin was a second-round pick by the Indians out of USM in 2018 and posted a 2.68 ERA over 49 minor league games. He was a true ace at USM, going 13-5 with 20 saves as the closer in 2016-17 and 10-0 with a 1.06 ERA as a starter in 2018. He was the Ferriss Trophy winner that final season.
Jackson State can swing the bats: .308 team batting average. The Tigers have some quality arms: Nik Galatas is 7-2, Anthony Beccera 6-1 and Steven Davila 4-0 with five saves. But maybe the most impressive aspect of the Tigers’ game is their wheels. JSU, 25-8 and 19-0 in the SWAC after dismantling Alabama A&M 13-0 on Friday, leads the nation in stolen bases and has five players with double-figure totals in steals. They got four bags on Friday, running their total to 108, far and away the best in NCAA Division I. They don’t hit a lot of homers, just 20 on the year. But their old-school, kicking-up-dust style produces. They average 9.2 runs per game. Equon Smith leads the club with 20 steals in 21 attempts. Jatavious Melton, from Natchez, has 18; Madison’s Chandler Dillard 15; Columbia’s C.J. Newsome 14; and Raymond’s Chevy Dorris 12. Wesley Reyes is 8-of-9. The Tigers will enter the SWAC Tournament, set for May 19-23 at Madison, Ala., as the clear favorite for the title. And they’ll have to win the event to get an NCAA regional bid. It’d be a shame if they don’t; their speed and aggressiveness on the bases could cause problems for whatever regional heavyweights they might encounter.

Despite lobbying efforts by Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, an Assembly committee Tuesday killed a bill that would have cleared the way for the Los Angeles Police Department to make officers' disciplinary hearings and records open to the public.
The bill faced stiff opposition from many of the state's powerful police unions, which argued that the measure would compromise officer safety. LAPD Chief William J. Bratton, normally a Villaraigosa ally, pointedly chose not to take a position on the bill and Tuesday expressed concerns about it.
Three Democrats on the seven-member Public Safety Committee refused to cast a vote. Assemblyman Mark Leno (D-San Francisco) voted for the measure, and Assemblymen Greg Aghazarian (R-Stockton), Joel Anderson (R-San Diego) and Fiona Ma (D-San Francisco) opposed it.
The bill's author, state Sen. Gloria Romero (D-Los Angeles), lashed out against the members who abstained. They were Assemblyman Jose Solorio (D-Santa Ana), the committee's chairman, and Assemblymen Hector De La Torre (D-South Gate) and Anthony Portantino (D-La Cañada Flintridge).
"I was really taken aback by the [bill's] death by silence," Romero said. "The fear, you could feel it -- the fear of what will happen if you look out for the public's interests when they may differ from the interests of the law enforcement lobby."
Tim Sands, president of the Police Protective League, which represents 9,300 LAPD rank-and-file officers, said he was pleased that "this bad piece of legislation was stopped." He reiterated the union's stance that the department's discipline system allows sufficient civilian oversight. The league launched a radio campaign that was highly critical of the proposed law, and Sands, in a recent interview, accused Romero of throwing a "legislative temper tantrum." [Mark Godsey]

I recently published my first gig, and I am beginning to notice that there are a few views and no sales, yet. I’ve included additional works and updated cover art and description details.
I’ve read in the forum that there are many peoples’ gigs that are not showing up in the search engine and I’ve noticed that mine is still not viewable. It’s been about two weeks since I posted my first gig.
I would appreciate if anyone can provide feedback on my gig or suggestions on how to improve a gig.
Thank you for reading and your time!

Climate change forcing relocation of Panama’s indigenous Kuna
From MRG Americas
Rising seas are forcing nearly half of the 32,000 semi-autonomous indigenous Kuna people of Panama to abandon their ancestral homes on the tiny low-lying islands off the country's northeastern coast and move to the mainland.
Kuna elders living in the Caribbean archipelago have noted a marked change in recent years. Echoing international climate change experts, they warn that the sea level rise will get worse. Whereas previously floods were occasional, brief and just a couple of centimeters high, today seasonal winds, storms and high tides combine to submerge the tiny islands, destroy Kuna huts and carry away the all-important dugout canoes.
The Kuna are one of the most politically organized of the indigenous groups in Panama with a history of rebellion against Spanish colonizers as well as the Panamanian government. The Kuna gained their semi-autonomous comarca (reserve) following uprisings in 1925 and in 1930, after which the government established the San Blas archipelago as a semi-autonomous zone.
The great majority of the Kuna population is spread over 38 islands. Eleven communities are located in coastal parts of the region and two communities are located on the mainland.
According to a July 2010 Reuters report, the 2,000 inhabitants of one island community named Carti Sugdub plan to move to a coastal site within the Kuna's autonomous mainland territory. The work of clearing the dense tropical forest for the new settlement has already begun but progress has been slow. Residents have been using machetes and lack land-clearing machinery. The Panamanian government provides Kuna communities with basic social services and poverty alleviation support. Thus far, it does not appear as if the administration has put in place any contingency relocation plans, although there is official backing for the initiative. Kuna leaders on the island of Carti Mulatupu, who are working on an environmental impact study for their own move, have calculated that establishing a 600-person community on the mainland could cost up to US$ 5 million.
Observers have noted that the abandonment of the Panama islands by the indigenous Kuna population will be one of the first re-locations directly attributed to the predicted rise in sea levels. For at least two decades, environmental researchers have warned that coastal inundation would be one very noticeable consequence of global climate change.
Through a number of reports and its campaigning, MRG has continued to caution that such climate change-induced phenomena can have a particularly heavy impact on minority populations. Many minority communities live in environmentally fragile areas, and are often among the most socially, politically and economically marginalized groups in their countries.
