The most convincing explanation for the majority of short GRBs is that in the final stages of an inspiral between a neutron star and a companion compact object, the neutron star is tidally disrupted, providing material to accrete, heat, and eject on sub-second timescales. I describe a search for the gravitational-wave signatures of compact binary coalescence in the vicinity of short GRBs that occurred during S5/VSR1.

Section 3: the Search & Call Process in the United Church of Christ
United Church of Christ SEARCH AND CALL A Pilgrimage through Transitions and New Beginnings SECTION THREE THE SEARCH AND CALL PROCESS in The United Church of Christ “I am confident of this, that the one who began a good work among you will bring it to completion….” Philippians 1:6a SECTION THREE THE SEARCH AND CALL PROCESS in The United Church of Christ I am confident of this, that the one who began a good work among you will bring it to completion…. Philippians 1:6a “A Call, not a Job; a Vocation, not an Occupation” APPROACHING THE TASK: GOD’S COMMITTEE Selecting a Search Committee Just as the local church is not “our” church but rather God’s, so too the Search Committee is really God’s committee. A search for a new pastor is one of the most spiritual ministries in the church. The selection of Search Committee members is a task that is approached with prayer, wisdom, sensitivity, and awareness that God may be calling certain church members to consider serving in this particular capacity.1 One “best practice” for committee selection includes publicizing the criteria for membership on the Search Committee and inviting persons in the congregation Submitting to submit nominations to the governing board. nominations is one of Submitting nominations is one of the many ways that the many ways that the entire congregation can be informed about and included in the search process; it should be made the entire clear, however, that not all nominees will be congregation can be selected. Those who submit nominations should informed about and include a brief description of the reasons why that included in the search person would be an asset to the committee. -

But then there are those who want to know exactly where the trail is…meaning where is the path that Lewis and Clark walked on to the Pacific? This is not such an easy question to answer. Part of the difficulty with this question is that with few exceptions we do not really know exactly where they walked. In many cases, some members of the expedition were Mark Weekley, Superintendent on the river in watercraft while others were on land at the same time. This question One of the interesting questions I get from is also problematic because it is often time to time is, “Where is the Trail?” This based in a lack of understanding of what a seems like an easy enough question to National Historic Trail is and how the Lewis answer. My first instinct is to hand someone and Clark expedition moved through the our brochure with a map of the trail on landscape.

Search Warrant Manual
The Complete Search Warrant, Annotated Consolidated Edition By Albert M. Rosenblatt NEW YORK STATE UNIFIED COURT SYSTEM November 2004 Copyright © 2005 New York State Unified Court System All rights reserved ABOUT THE AUTHOR A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard Law School, Albert M. Rosenblatt is a Judge on the New York Court of Appeals and former Chief Administrative Judge of New York State. Before that, he had been Dutchess County’s District Attorney and then served on the County Court, Supreme Court, and Appellate Division, Second Department. He has written on a variety of legal and popular topics. He and his wife Julia, a writer and former Vassar College professor, live in Dutchess County. Their daughter, Betsy, is an attorney in California, specializing in intellectual property. PREFACE "Where is your warrant?" This question has been asked countless times, but rarely with more drama than in "The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax," a Sherlock Holmes adventure. The villain, a bogus preacher named Holy Peters, was unlawfully secreting his victim and Holmes demanded entry. On his side, the great detective had only justice and a revolver. Where was the warrant? Holmes half drew the revolver from his pocket and replied, "This will have to serve till a better one comes," Holmes explained. The approach worked well for Sherlock Holmes but will not do for American law enforcement officials. A revolver can be as effective as a warrant, and may even produce prompter compliance, but given the exclusionary rule, it would be uneconomical to trade in this modest volume for a Colt .45. -
Rachel Carson
FIRST PUBLISHED 1951 THE SEA AROUND US tells the strange and exciting story of the seas, how they came into being, and how Earth's life emerged from them. Miss Carson writes of the teeming life of the upper levels, of the icy, black, primeval depths, of the immense forces which find their expression in tides and currents, of towering mountains and desolate canyons. She describes the pulsings of spring when salmon migrate and jelly fish spawn, of the mysterious creatures that have so far evaded all man's efforts to catch them. Rachel Carson was a scientist by vocation who happened to possess the poetic, imaginative temperament of a truly great writer “The sense of force and movement in her prose is one of Miss Carson's best qualities . perfectly suited to her subject, to the restless, always moving waters, swarming with life, full of beauty and horror” Jacquetta Hawkes Over two-thirds of the Earth’s surface is covered by the sea. In this unique and fascinating book, Rachel Carson does nothing less than present a history of the sea from the earliest times and draw a panoramic picture in magnificent prose of the fantastic marine world which hides beneath its enigmatic surface. Miss Carson traces the beginnings of the sea in the Chaos of the World’s birth pangs and shows how the Earth’s first crude forms of life emerged from its saline womb. She describes the swarming life of the upper levels, the icy black primeval depths fissured with unimaginably deep canyons and ridged with immense mountain ranges, and the titanic forces of tides and currents.
