Given what we already know, Ford's scheduled testimony on Thursday seems unlikely to yield additional information that bears upon the reliability of her accusations.

This emotional fact in turn bears upon the adapted plot of The Killing of a Chinese Bookie, because it gives the narrator a reason to act in nihilistic and violent ways.

The attorney general does note that since Mueller's evidence does not establish that Trump was part of an underlying crime, the "absence of such evidence bears upon the President's intent" when it comes to obstruction of justice — which basically means that without collusion, there can be no obstruction.

" Barr letter: "In making this determination, we noted that the Special Counsel recognized that "the evidence does not establish that the President was involved in an underlying crime related to Russian election interference," and that, while not determinative, the absence of such evidence bears upon the President's intent with respect to obstruction.

Earlier in the letter he points out that Mueller didn't find evidence establishing Trump himself was involved in an underlying crime regarding Russian interference, then claims that this "bears upon the President's intent with regard to obstruction" — in other words, that if there wasn't a crime to hide from the public or prosecutors to begin with, there wouldn't be any need for Trump to obstruct.

The valves are on/off rather than modulating, for cost reasons. As the temperature rises, the gas expands, driving the pressure upward. A trim valve releases the excess, maintaining the setpoint. In some applications, the precision of pressure control directly bears upon the success of the process.

Dunnage airbags consist of closed chambers made from an elastic film filled with air. When at rest, only the static load generated by the weight of the package contents bears upon the cushioning. When dynamic loads occur, these are absorbed by compression of the cushion. The quantity of inflation air may be varied in accordance with the particular properties and requirements of the package contents.

It proposes a functional evaluation of the direct investments of desire—whether revolutionary or reactionary—in a field that is social, biological, historical, and geographical.Deleuze and Guattari (1972, 93, 115, 322–333, 354, 400). Deleuze and Guattari develop four theses of schizoanalysis: # Every unconscious libidinal investment is social and bears upon a socio-historical field. # Unconscious libidinal investments of group or desire are distinct from preconscious investments of class or interest.

Including Scenes from the Life of St Francis by Bartolo di Fredi and Taddeo di Bartolo. The first altar right of main altar has a fresco depicting a grim Triumph of Death by Bartolo; in the painting, death as a horseman, dressed in black on a black horse, bears upon two conversing noblemen. There is a large polyptych of Madonna and Saints by Luca di Tomme.Comune of Lucignano, entry on church.

Each teammate had to jump across large moving mattresses to retrieve life- sized teddy bears (Upon the competition's completion, one of the HouseGuests, Frank, kept his teddy bear; calling him "Teddy B"). After twenty minutes, teams were allowed to substitute one teammate. Team Britney won the Head of Household competition, and Team Dan came in last place, giving Dan the responsibility to evict one of his players. On Day 1, Dan cast the sole vote to evict Jodi.

Critics reproach members of Congress for protecting their own electoral interests at the expense of the general welfare. Congressmen tend to distribute specialized benefits at a great cost and ignore the particular costs the legislation bears upon the taxpayers (Evans 1994). Legislators, who seek their personal benefit via logrolling even though it may not benefit those who must pay for the measure, are known as maximizers. Maximizers only take into account their personal cost and electability, instead of the effects of their actions on other parties involved.

In the 2010 offseason, Oreskovic was not offered a contract extension by the Toronto Maple Leafs, thus being acquired as a free agent by the Washington Capitals. He signed a professional tryout contract (PTO) in September 2010 and is currently playing for the Capitals' AHL affiliate Hershey Bears. Upon joining the Bears organization, Bears forward Johann Kroll was already wearing the uniform #4 and then goaltender Semyon Varlamov was already wearing the uniform #40 (at the time), therefore Oreskovic chose to wear the uniform #32.

River traffic along the Hackensack River can flow under the swing bridge when it is open. Bridge schedules exempt the Portal Draw from opening weekdays 6 am to 10 am and 4 pm to 8 pm, during peak commuter travel periods over the bridge. At other times, the bridge opens on signal if a vessel gives one hour of notice, also in the hours leading up to peak periods, which can affect train schedules. When closed to river traffic, the bridge bears upon six wedge blocks.

Today, these encounters have become more common as a result of the increase in human population in the region. Such encounters have included the hunting of bears by humans for their fur or meat, and, less commonly, attacks by bears upon humans. More recently, as conservation efforts have become more commonplace, concerns over the sustenance and stability of the Kodiak bear population have arisen. The IUCN classifies Ursus arctos, the species to which the Kodiak belongs, as being of "least concern" in terms of endangerment or extinction.

Thomas Aquinas was a theologian and a Scholastic philosopher. However, he never considered himself a philosopher, and criticized philosophers, whom he saw as pagans, for always "falling short of the true and proper wisdom to be found in Christian revelation." With this in mind, Thomas did have respect for Aristotle, so much so that in the Summa, he often cites Aristotle simply as "the Philosopher", a designation frequently used at that time. Much of his work bears upon philosophical topics, and in this sense may be characterized as philosophical.

He served in the 6th Division 2nd Brigade 21st Battery, from 8 February 1917 before returning to music hall once the war was over. He cultivated an individual style and persona, wearing a straw boater, wide grey flannel trousers (he claimed he invented the Oxford bags style at the Coliseum in 1920), and an "Old Borstolian" blazer, and carried a notebook with a rolled umbrella. James Agate described him as "that sham Harrovian who bears upon his blazer the broad arrows of a blameful life".S. A. Moseley (ed.), Who's Who in Broadcasting (London: Sir Isaac Pitman & Sons Ltd, 1933), p. 116.

The courts now adopt a purposive approach which seeks to give > effect to the true purpose of legislation and are prepared to look at much > extraneous material that bears upon the background against which the > legislation was enacted.BAILII p. 5 Mackay, in his dissenting judgment, came to the same conclusion as the rest of the House on the interpretation of the Finance Act, but without the use of Hansard. Although he agreed that such a use would not violate Article 9, he argued that it was not appropriate: For several judges, the use of Sheldon's statement in Parliament was a deciding factor.

The work on Canada took Ford twenty years, with the author stating that he took inspiration from several different sources. Ford stated that some of the elements in the book, such as the feeling of "not [being] connected with the larger forces of a culture I was by accident born into", were drawn from his personal experiences. He also expressed an interest in the aftermath and consequences of crimes such as murder and robberies, and the effect they have on the young family members of the perpetrators, as well as the "closeness to which normal life bears upon felonious life".

Baum repeatedly displays a resistance to, and rejection of, prejudice and xenophobia in his works – but he also exploits the stereotypes common in his era, usually for comic effect. (See: Sky Island; Daughters of Destiny; Father Goose: His Book; Father Goose's Year Book.) Material in the first Sam Steele book bears upon this subject. Two key supporting characters are men from the Sulu Archipelago nicknamed "Nux" and "Bryonia;" the gruffer characters in the book refer to them as "niggers." The two become friends and companions of Sam Steele, and are presented as unflinchingly loyal, reliable, courageous, caring, strong, and resourceful.

Bassiolo the usher is promoted to the Duke's household; Medice/Mendice is beaten and driven out by Pogio and the earl's pages. In the play's final scene, Strozza delivers a speech that bears upon Chapman's attitude toward personal virtue and political authority: Chapman's preoccupation with this concept, of the virtuous man who is his own moral authority, connects with his deep commitment to Homer, whose works he translated over many years; and it helps to explain why Chapman would soon abandon comedy, to devote himself to the tragedies in which he explored his concepts of "Homeric Idealism" more deeply.Harry Weidner, quoted in Logan and Smith, p. 144.

Barr's letter quoted Mueller's report as stating, "the evidence does not establish that the President was involved in an underlying crime related to Russian election interference," leading Barr to write, "the evidence developed during the Special Counsel's investigation is not sufficient to establish that the President committed an obstruction-of-justice offense," and concluding, "while not determinative, the absence of such evidence bears upon the President's intent with respect to obstruction." Some legal analysts challenged Barr's reasoning that Trump would not have intended to obstruct justice solely because he knew he had not committed a crime, noting that one can have intent to obstruct justice for other reasons, such as protecting associates from harm.

She was the daughter of Agenor, and on her disappearance from Earth the Phœnicians honoured her with a temple and told a sacred legend about her; how that Zeus was enamoured of her for her beauty, and changing his form into that of a bull carried her off into Crete. This legend I heard from other Phœnicians as well; and the coinage current among the Sidonians bears upon it the effigy of Europa sitting upon a bull, none other than Zeus. Thus they do not agree that the temple in question is sacred to Europa. The paradox, as it seemed to Lucian, would be solved if Europa is Astarte in her guise as the full, "broad-faced" moon.

Upon concluding his junior career, and embarking on his first professional year in the 2016–17 season, McGauley was injured during Capitals training camp and was assigned to AHL affiliate, the Hershey Bears. Upon receiving medical clearance he was assigned to secondary affiliate, the South Carolina Stingrays of the ECHL for conditioning on December 14, 2016. He registered 17 points in 39 games with the Stingrays. In the following 2017–18 season, McGauley continued with the Stingrays, increasing his offensive output with 36 points in 48 games. He also made his debut in the AHL with the Bears, in a 7-6 defeat to the Lehigh Valley Phantoms on March 2, 2018.

She wears mail, which Swiatek and Breen found an odd anachronism. She bears upon her shield the Roman numerals MCMXV for the year 1915, the second use of Roman numerals on U.S. coins after the early types of the 1907 Saint-Gaudens double eagle. Though Aitken had originally expressed the date as "1915" in his original sketches, he soon changed his mind, "As these designs will not be used in any other year, there will be no need to change the year as we must on other coins." Kevin Flynn, in his book on commemorative coins, described the branch on which the owl perches as that of a ponderosa pine tree; several cones are visible.

Jin was selected by the OB Bears with the first pick in the 2nd Round of the 1997 KBO Draft. He entered the league with high expectation, but spent his first Bears career as a backup catcher, appearing in 95 games, hardly showing signs of promise as a starting catcher. In 1998, Jin was named to the South Korea national baseball team that won the gold medal in the Asian Games in Bangkok, Thailand. Jin received a military exemption for winning the gold medal, along with the fellow gold medalists Park Chan-ho, Seo Jae-weong and Kim Byung-hyun. In the 1999 season, another catcher prospect Hong Sung-heon was signed by the Bears upon graduation from college, and his arrival provided further fierce competition for the starting catcher position.

As this array of publications shows, Buber was a prolific writer; yet the scientific quality of his work does not suffer on this account, at least in the opinion of his contemporaries. (See below for current assessments.) At the outset he adopted a certain system to which he consistently adhered. For a determination of the reading of the text he availed himself of all accessible manuscripts and printed works—and everything was accessible to him, as he spared no expense in obtaining copies of manuscripts and the rarest printed editions; he conscientiously recorded the various readings in footnotes, and he bestowed special care, chiefly in the older midrashim, on the correction and explanation of words in the text borrowed from the Greek and the Latin. In the introductions, which almost assume the proportions of independent works (the introduction to the Tanchuma embraces 212 pages octavo), everything that bears upon the history of the work under consideration is discussed, and a compilation is given of the authors or works cited by the Midrash or serving as sources for it, and those that in turn have drawn upon the Midrash.

At the close of arguments on 22 July 1893 the Privy Council announced that its advice was that the appeal should be dismissed, and its reasons were published on 12 December 1893. Lord Herschell held that the evidence, in this case, was admissible, however, as a general rule evidence of a past similar event should not be admissible unless there are exceptional circumstances. > It is undoubtedly not competent for the prosecution to adduce evidence > tending to show that the accused has been guilty of criminal acts other than > those covered by the indictment, for the purpose of leading to the > conclusion that the accused is a person likely from his criminal conduct or > character to have committed the offence for which he is being tried. On the > other hand, the mere fact that the evidence adduced tends to show the > commission of other crimes does not render it inadmissible if it be relevant > to an issue before the jury, and it may be so relevant if it bears upon the > question whether the acts alleged to constitute the crime charged in the > indictment were designed or accidental, or to rebut a defence which would > otherwise be open to the accused.
