Source: Mail Tribune, Medford, Ore.文件倉Sept. 05--Twin brothers who work as security guards have been cleared of criminal charges that they overstepped their duties in two separate cases. And they say their business is booming.Jason Lee Libby and Donald Eugene Libby, both 30, are the chief financial officer and chief operations officer, respectively, for Jackson County Security. The two faced felony charges ranging from criminal impersonation of an officer to harassment and assault stemming from two separate cases early this year.A Jackson County Circuit Court jury today found Donald Libby not guilty of two counts of impersonating an officer following a three-day jury trial before Judge Benjamin Bloom. The case against Jason Libby was dropped because the alleged victim refused to cooperate.Medford police spotted Donald Libby patrolling near Camina Drive and Veneto Circle at 11:13 p.m. Jan. 8, said Lt. Mike Budreau at the time.Libby, driving an unmarked black Ford Crown Victoria, was standing in front of another vehicle, shining a flashlight at the 18-year-old male driver and demanding he stop, Budreau said.Libby allegedly ordered the driver and another 18-year-old man in the car to get out while he quizzed them about intoxicants, then told the driver he could be arrested for DUII and trespassing, Budreau said.Budreau said private citizens cannot administer DUII tests, but they can detain someone for being under the influence.Libby was later arrested and charged with the two class-C felonies.Libby's defense attorney Nathan Wente said the jury acquitted his client because they understood he did not impersonate a police officer that night. Nor did he overstep his duties as a security guard."There is no evidence of that at all," Wente said.Prosecutor Lacie Nelson said the law requires the state to prove Libby knowingly and intentionally used false law enforcement identification or wore a law enforcement uniform to give the impression that he was a peace officer, and that he did so with the intent to obtain a benefit or to defraud. The state maintains Libby did not have lawful authority to perform sobriety tests, she said."But the jury struggled with the language. They were hard-pressed to figure out what was unlawful," Nelson sai存倉.Harassment and fourth-degree assault charges against Jason Libby related to a separate alleged incident in January were dropped on June 27. Two counts of criminal impersonation were dismissed in February, Chief Deputy District Attorney Jeremy Markiewicz said."We had a less than cooperative victim in that case," Markiewicz said.Libby faced the charges because of an alleged altercation he had with a man and woman in front of Weldon's Cleaners at 11:39 p.m Jan. 7, according to police reports.Jackson County Security is contracted to patrol the business, police said. Dressed in a uniform with a badge, gun and baton, Jason Libby allegedly tried to arrest a 40-year-old man for trespassing as the man came out of the cleaners after using the restroom even though he wasn't a customer.Surveillance video appears to show Libby push the handcuffed man, who hadn't posed any previous problems at the laundry, police said.A 54-year-old woman then told the handcuffed man that Libby was not a police officer, as she'd had a previous run-in with Libby. Libby allegedly threatened to arrest the woman for trespassing, too. Police said he pushed her up against his vehicle and used a wrist lock to detain her. The man tried to leave the scene in handcuffs, and Libby chased him down to bring him back to the scene. Police arrived on scene soon after to sort out the incident and no trespassing charges were filed, Budreau said.Private security personnel have the same rights that any citizen would have when it comes to power of arrest. They can detain suspects, just as anyone who witnesses a crime can. But before you can arrest somebody for trespass, you must allow them the opportunity to leave, Budreau said.Jason and Donald Libby say they will continue to perform their duties as security guards, stating they never broke any laws.Jason Libby said their company lost only a couple of clients over the negative publicity related to their cases. In fact, he said, business has never been better."Our company has just blossomed," Jason Libby said.-- Sanne SpechtRead more in Thursday's Mail Tribune.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Mail Tribune (Medford, Ore.)

Source: Chicago TribuneSept.存倉 05--A proposed mixed martial arts event in Naperville is on the ropes after a blow from the City Council.Councilmen on Tuesday rejected a request for Roselle-based American Predator Fighting Championship to use a city parking lot for an Oct. 19 event and might consider a ban on such events entirely."We had issues of fighting down at BlackFinn (American Saloon) and our downtown, and this isn't much different except that we're putting them in a cage," Councilman Paul Hinterlong said. "Oh, so now it's legal, let's bring in 2,000 people to view it. I don't want that here. Enough fighting already."The show at Players Indoor Sports Center would be an amateur event featuring fighters competing for four title belts, according to promoter Rich Seldal. The company, owned in part by Ultimate Fighting Championship veteran Keith Hackney, has held events in Lemont, St. Charles and McCook.The proposed Naperville mixed martial arts bouts, which are regulated by the state, were expected to draw 2,000 people, requiring at least 670 parking spots under city code. Promoters had asked to use a vacant city lot on Quincy Avenue to fulfill the parking requirement.But using a city lot did not sit well with councilmen."Who's directing traffic in and out of there?" Councilman Doug Krause said. "Who is responsible for that? That lot is not lit. This event is at night. You've got people who are going to be drinking at this thing coming out of that lot plus walking down Quincy."He also questioned the need for police presence at the event. Police Chief Bob Marshall said the organizers would pay for two officers to be stationed at the event. A similar event several years ago held by another group at the Holiday Inn Select did not cause prob迷你倉ems, he said, and other communities also have allowed mixed martial arts events without issues."Knock on wood, we've done 25 shows and never had problem," Seldal said."Well, we're knocking on wood, potentially at Naperville's expense," Councilman Bob Fieseler replied. "It just seems bizarre to me you would do this. ... It almost reminds me of some of the things on television you just want to turn away from. You combine alcohol with fighting."Seldal said there also is alcohol at other combative sports, including boxing, football and hockey.But Councilman Grant Wehrli said mixed martial arts is different because its aim is for competitors to harm their opponents.Councilman Joe McElroy also expressed concerns about the 2,000 people leaving the fight."Where do they go?" he asked. "And given the fact alcohol is being served and having been a young guy once myself, it concerns me frankly."Eight of the nine council members rejected the group's request to use the city parking lot. Mayor George Pradel cast the only vote in favor.Seldal said he might consider scaling back the event to keep the number of spectators just under 900, but he will have to wait and see what other actions councilmen take.After the vote, the council asked city staff to draw up new regulations regarding holding mixed martial arts events in Naperville. Hinterlong, who made the request, said Wednesday he would like to see any sort of cage fighting-style competitions banned in Naperville but said the ordinance would have to be carefully worded to allow training facilities for boxing and martial arts.mjenco@tribune.comTwitter @melissajencoCopyright: ___ (c)2013 the Chicago Tribune Visit the Chicago Tribune at .chicagotribune.com Distributed by MCT Information Services自存倉

MENLO PARK, Calif.存倉, Sept. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- In the kitchen, Bobby Marhamat and his wife Shima are part chefs, part scientists. "We create fusion flairs by using Persian spices in Mexican dishes, combining flavors from across the world to make Asian-Persian concoctions and other interesting Mediterranean-centric recipes," said Mr. Marhamat, Co-Founder of bah BAH Hot Sauce.(Photo: photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130905/PH74363-a)(Photo: photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130905/PH74363-b)In April, one of the Marhamats experiments led to a surprising conclusion. Pomegranate, a fruit from ancient Persia, packed a tremendous punch. "We mixed pomegranate with hot sauce and were amazed," Bobby announced with a grin. "It was love at first taste!"The Marhamats were on to something. As a result, they tinkered with their own hot sauce recipe, but - unlike most hot sauces - they were determined to create an all-natural hot sauce. "Bottle labels differentiate hot sauce brands. But most manufacturers use recipes that include sugar, oils and preservatives," Mrs. Marhamat stated. "We wanted to create a hot sauce that tasted great and was good for you."The couple spent countless hours testing and tasting various ingredients, with pomegranate being the one constant. "We were very picky. It was important to create a sauce that was hot enough to satisfy every palate and had the p迷你倉rfect blend of pomegranate," said Mr. Marhamat.Working in their own kitchen, the Marhamat's crafted four recipe "finalists." Then Bobby and Shima moved their work to a commercial kitchen, where they created four additional variations. Eventually, the recipe evolved into a zesty flavor that both agreed was their new pomegranate hot sauce. For the name, the couple settled on bah BAH Hot Sauce, a Farsi term meaning "Mmmm Mmmm.""It's the perfect blend of heat and tanginess that does not overshadow your food. It simply gives it an amazing kick," said Mrs. Marhamat. In addition to tasting great, medical research suggests pomegranate, which is bah BAH's key ingredient, has several health benefits as an anti-oxidant and an inhibitory effect on prostate cancer.Starting September 10(th), 2013, wholesalers, retailers and customers will be able to purchase bah BAH Hot Sauce. "We accomplished our goal," Mr. Marhamat beamed. "We can't wait to see consumers smile after taking a bite of bah BAH."To find out where you can purchase bah BAH Hot Sauce, wholesalers, retailers and customers may contact Co-Founder Bobby Marhamat via phone: (415) 484-8696 or email.Read more news from bah BAH Hot Sauce.Photo: photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130905/PH74363-aphotos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130905/PH74363-bPRN Photo Desk, photodesk@prnewswire.combah BAH Hot SauceWeb site: .bahbahhotsauce.com/自存倉

However, neither the Pirates nor the Civic Center signed a lease and Pratt said t迷你倉e announcement referred to the trustees passing a resolution supporting the "framework" of a potential deal, with a lot of the details still to be worked out.One of those details was over splitting concession revenues.In previous leases, the Pirates hadn't received a cut of concession sales, but the framework called for the team to begin getting 57.5 percent of those sales. However, state liquor control officials said the Pirates couldn't get a share of alcohol sales because they aren't on the Civic Center's liquor license.The Civic Center's last offer called for the Pirates to get 65 percent of the non-alcohol concession sales.Advertising was also an issue, with the Civic Center retaining the right to sell on-ice ads, but the two sides could not agree how to split the sales of other advertising space in the arena.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Portland Press Herald (Portland, Maine) Visit the Portland Press Herald (Portland, Maine) at .pressherald.com Distributed by MCT Information Services文件倉

The death was reported to the state Health Department on Tuesday.The Morris County man developed fever and muscle weakness in mid-August, was admitted to the hospital with encephalitis (swelling of the brain), and died Aug. 31.At least six New Jersey residents have tested positive for the West Nile virus: one each in Bergen, Burlington, Gloucester, and Morris Counties and two in Camden County. All counties except Cumberland and Salem have detected the virus in mosquitoes.In Pennsylvania, two York County residents and one Montgomery County resident have been affected by West Nile virus.Last year was the most active season ever in New Jersey, with 48 confirmed cases and six deaths, officials said.Three of those cases were reported from Burlington County, including one fatality. In 2011, there were seven cases and no fatalities. In 2010, there were 30 cases and two fatalities.In Pennsylvania, there were 60 cases and four deaths, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Across the country, 45 states and the District of Columbia have reported West Nile virus infections in people, birds, or mosquitoes as of Aug. 27, the CDC said.A total of 421 cases of West Nile virus disease in people, including 13 deaths, have been reported to the CDC. Of these, 197 (47 percent) were classified as neuroinvasive disease (such as meningitis or encephalitis) and 224 (53%) were classified as non-ne迷你倉出租roinvasive disease."September is the peak of West Nile virus season, so I encourage everyone to take steps to prevent mosquito bites by wearing insect repellent with DEET and to limit time outdoors during dusk and dawn, when mosquitos are most active," said New Jersey Health Commissioner Mary E. O'Dowd.The state's first 2013 case of the virus was reported in Burlington County, where a 55-year-old man developed symptoms of the disease Aug. 5, including fever, muscle weakness, vomiting, and dizziness. He was hospitalized and recovered.The man was exposed while gardening and conducting other outdoor activities around his home, health officials said.The Department of Health called on residents to maintain screen doors and windows, use insect netting on infant carriers and strollers, and to wear long sleeves and pants whenever possibleIn July, the department launched a public-awareness campaign alerting people to the dangers of West Nile virus. Ads have been featured on NJ Transit trains and buses since July, and public-service announcements in English and Spanish began airing last month.Many people infected with West Nile virus do not become ill and may not develop symptoms. When symptoms do occur, they may be mild or severe and show up three to 15 days after being bitten by an infected mosquito, officials said.Mild symptoms include flulike illness with fever, headache, body aches, nausea, and sometimes swollen lymph glands or a skin rash on the chest, stomach, and back.Contact Edward Colimore at 856-779-3833 or ecolimore@phillynews.com.For more information on West Nile virus, please visit: .westnile.state.pa.us/or .state.nj.us/ health/cd/westnile or .nj.gov/dep/mosquito.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Philadelphia Inquirer Visit The Philadelphia Inquirer at .philly.com Distributed by MCT Information Services迷你倉

OPERATIC OPULENCE PHOTO BY ZHANG YANLIN / FOR CHINA DAILY On Sept 1 in Bozhou, Anhui province, actors performed at a competition in erjiaxian, a rare type of Chinese opera originating in the border areas of Jiangsu, Shandong, Henan and Anhui provinces some 200 years ago.self storage It is now listed as a national intangible cultural heritage.Time limits in the new law provide a legal basis to build an ei cient trade- mark registration mechanism.”LI SHUNDE, INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROFESSOR, CHINESE ACADEMY OF SOCIAL SCIENCES Foreign enterprises should be con- ? dent in the fairness of trademark protection in the Chinese market.”XU RUIBIAO, DIRECTOR, TRADEMARK OFFICE STATE ADMINISTRATION FOR INDUSTRY AND COMMERCE By ZHANG ZHAO zhangzhao@chinadaily.com.cn After three reviews over the past two years, a revised Trademark Law was approved last week by China’s top legis- lative body. It will take ef ect on May 1 next year.h e new law will better serve to “crack down on infringe- ments and ensure a fair mar- ket for Chinese and foreign trademark holders”, Xinhua News Agency reported.Guangming Daily quoted Wang Qing, an official with the Legal Affairs Commis- sion at the National People’sCongress Standing Commit- tee, saying the amendment embodies three key words — convenience, fairness and severity.h e revised law will for the first time set time limits on trademark application proce- dures. h e initial review peri- od should last no more than nine months. If objections are raised, examinations should be i nished in 12 months.Li Shunde, an intellectual property professor with the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told the Procurato- rial Daily that registering a trademark has been “like run- ning the marathon”.h e review period currently lasts 30 months on average, but can stretch to seven or eight years, he said.“Time limits in the new law provide a legal basis to build an effici迷你倉nt trademark registration mechanism,” said Wang.The new law continues to offer protection for well- known trademarks, but the title will no longer be allowed on product packages, advertis- ing or promotions.Following its 1985 member- ship in the Paris Convention on the Protection of Industrial Property, China established a well-known trademark system to protect brands.But many industry insid- ers say the process does not function as it was originally designed.Many companies now regard a well-known trade- mark as an honorary title to promote their products, pos- sibly misleading consumers.A recent comment by the Beijing News noted that a number of companies perpe- trate fraud and create disputes to apply for the status, “mak- ing the identii cation nearly lose its value”.Zhao Hu, an intellectual property rights lawyer and partner in Beijing’s EastBright Law Firm, told China Daily in an earlier interview that the identification as a well- known trademark should be “a legal process to settle disputes, which is based on factual evidence in individual cases”.h e new law will also give equal protection to foreign companies.“We have provided protec- tion for nearly all the well- known foreign brands in China,” Xu Ruibiao, director of the trademark oi ce under the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, told Xinhua.“Foreign enterprises should be coni dent in the fairness of trademark protection in the Chinese market.”In addition, the new law will increase the compensa- tion ceiling for trademark infringement to 3 million yuan ($490,500), six times the current limit.h e Trademark Law was the i rst intellectual property law adopted in the New China.It was i rst issued in 1982 and has been amended three pre- vious times.According to the latest sta- tistics from the SAIC, there were 8.17 million registered trademarks in China by the end of June, the most in the world.文件倉
