    STATE OF MISSOURI ) ) s s COUNTY OF JACKSON ) AFFIDAVIT I, Jeffrey Weiland, a Special Agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), being duly sworn, state the following is true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief: 1. I am a Special Agent with the FBI and have been employed in such a capacity since September 2007. I am currently assigned to the Criminal Enterprise Program, which investigates gangs, drugs, and organized crime matters. Prior to working for the FBI, I was employed as an attorney in Chicago, Illinois (2001-06) and as a law clerk to federal judges sitting on the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals (2000-01) and the Northern District of Illinois (2006-07). The information in this complaint was obtained by me personally, from other FBI agents, and from police officers and police officers' official reports. 2. This affidavit is in support of a Complaint and Arrest Warrant for Michael Austin Leak, white male, date of birth August 11, 1990, for violations of Title 18, United States Code, Sections 371, 2113(a) and (d), and 2, Conspiracy to Commit Bank Robbery and Aiding and Abetting Armed Bank Robbery. A criminal history report shows that the Columbia, Missouri Police Department arrested Leak on one count of Stealing on January 30, 2008. 3. On Thursday, July 2, 2009, law enforcement personnel responded to a bank robbery at the Bank of Brookfield Purden located at 33332 Main, Winigan, Missouri. During the course of the investigation, it was learned that a lone white male entered the bank at approximately 9:02 a.m.

  • Monthly Newsletter of the St Louis Chapter Buick Club of America Volume XXXVIII No
    Monthly Newsletter of the St Louis Chapter Buick Club of America Volume XXXVIII No. 6 June 2019 Dedicated to the memory of Jeff Watkins Director’s Letter June, 2019 Greetings, Well folks, we start this month off with the passing of one of our founders and charter mem- bers, Jeff Watkins. Not only was Jeff a “Buick guy” but he was a true to the heart “car guy”. As a chartered member, he had a special love for the club and became a self-appointed histo- rian and an excellent resource for all things past. Jeff was also a collector of Buick and auto- motive literature. One of the things I will miss most about Jeff; every time he heard I ac- quired a new Buick, he would come to the next meeting with a sales brochure or some type of literature he had related to the car. And after each review, I would ask him if I could pur- chase it, and the answer was always the same, “NO”. Not too much is known about Jeff’s passing, but the family is planning a memorial in the near future and the club will be invited to share in his memory. Last year we honored Jeff with an Honorary Lifetime Membership for his forty years of ser- vice with the club. So for this month we dedicate our Gazette and member profile to Jeff Watkins. 1 On a happier note, “Thank You” to everyone who attended the car show and lunch at Laura Buick GMC in Collinsville, IL. I know many of you were traveling and had other commitments but we still had a good showing for the event.

  • Safety Evaluation of Lane Change Collision Avoidance Systems Using
    SAFETY EVALUATION OF LANE CHANGE in progress and is planned to be completed in mid COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEMS USING 2005. THE NATIONAL ADVANCED DRIVING SIMULATOR INTRODUCTION Lane change collision avoidance systems (CAS) are designed to prevent crashes in lane change maneuvers by alerting the driver to hazards in the Alrik L. Svenson adjacent lanes of traffic. From previous studies, it National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been determined that many crashes during a lane Valerie J. Gawron change occur when drivers are unaware of hazards around their vehicle. A CAS can detect surrounding General Dynamics vehicles that are in zones on the sides and behind the Timothy Brown vehicle and notify the driver through the use of a National Advanced Driving Simulator warning signal such as an auditory message or a United States of America visual symbol in the side or rear view mirrors. Lane change crashes account for approximately 5 percent Paper number 05-0249 of the total of all reported crashes in the General Estimates System (GES) data. To the extent that a CAS helps drivers avoid unsafe lane changes, it has ABSTRACT the potential to reduce crashes. This paper reports on the status of the evaluation of several lane change collision avoidance systems The Space and Electronics Group of TRW has (CAS) types using the National Advanced Driving developed a CAS consisting of two detection and Simulator (NADS).

  • ORGANIZING MR. SLOAN the Creation of the Modern Organization
    ORGANIZING MR. SLOAN The creation of the modern organization Stuart Crainer At every stage in human evolution, from the Greeks and Romans to modern-day CEOs, people have considered the best ways to organize themselves. Some have been more successful than others. For example, at their peak, the Incas controlled six million people spread over a huge area covering parts of modern Peru, Ecuador, Chile, Bolivia and Argentina. They spoke many different languages and dialects. How to manage them and their lands was a little bit more problematical than contemplating how to manage a distant subsidiary. The Incas had the advantage that force was one possibility. But, interestingly, their more peaceful means of persuasion were preludes to later organizational behavior. The Incas decided on a highly standardized system of administration. This was based on units of ten and was the forerunner of the modern decimal system. To make sense of their land they divided them into four quarters – “suyus” – which met at the Inca capital, Cuzco. The Incas also invested heavily in infrastructure. Their road system eventually covered over 23,000 km. The road system meant that the army could move quickly to sort out trouble and that goods could move equally speedily. And all this was achieved at a time when the Incas had no vehicles with wheels. The road system was combined with a highly complex logistical network. This was made up of way stations, imperial centers, forts, ceremonial centers and other meeting and gathering points. Runners were specially 2 trained to pass on messages. The system worked, but briefly: the Inca empire only functioned for one hundred years.
