  • Notes About This Report
    NRS Estimates of Average Issue Readership for latest 12 & 6 month periods Ending June 200 Media Release September 19th, 2005 For the first time, NRS is producing a set data for journalists and media commentators to help them identify and quantify changes in the survey’s readership estimates. These tables will now be updated every quarter, and will be available via email or via the NRS website (in the subscribers-only section) at www.nrs.co.uk. Notes About This Report This report shows NRS Average Issue Readership estimates sorted by publication group (daily newspapers, Sunday newspapers, general weekly magazines etc.) for two data periods, 12 months and 6 months. Virtually all publications are reported on the 12-month base*, but only those with a sufficient sample size are reported on the 6-month base. The first column is the estimate (in 000s) for the most recent data period, the second column the estimate for the equivalent period a year ago. The third and fourth columns show the difference in the estimates between those periods, expressed in 000s and as a plus or minus percentage change. It is important to note that – as with any other sample-based survey - NRS estimates are subject to sampling variation. If two independent samples of the population are interviewed – which is what NRS is doing each year – the estimates obtained from these samples may be different, but if the differences are relatively small, they may be due simply to sampling variation. Therefore, when making any period-on-period comparison, it is important to express it as a change in the readership estimate, rather than a change in the actual readership.

    April 28, 2014 2014 Burton Award Winner TJSL Alumnus Robert M. Sagerian ‘13 is the 2014 Burton Award winner for Legal Achievement for his distinguished legal writing. “I’m really at a loss for words,” said Sagerian. “It's truly an honor and incredibly rewarding just to be considered for such a prestigious award. Advocating for those in need is my passion, my calling in the legal profession.” Sagerian was selected in the law student category for his note titled “A Penalty Flag for Preemption: The NFL Concussion Litigation, Tortious Fraud, and the Steel Curtain Defense of Section 301 of the Labor Management Relations act,” published in the Fall 2013, edition of the Thomas Jefferson Law Review. This year, the Burton Awards selection committee handed out 15 law student awards from among all of the nation’s law schools. Sagerian will be honored for his article at an awards ceremony and dinner at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C., on June 9. “Robert joins a distinguished group of TJSL winners of this award,” said Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Linda Keller. “It is wonderful to see the accomplishments of our students recognized in this way.” The Burton Awards, now in its 15th year, was established by William C. Burton to promote and reward the refine- ment and enrichment of good legal writing and the achievement of legal reform. Winners are chosen by a committee consisting of educators from the law schools of Harvard University, Columbia University and Stanford University, as well as leading members of the legal profession and the judiciary.

    Case: 1:19-cv-02727 Document #: 28 Filed: 07/19/19 Page 1 of 9 PageID #:335 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS EASTERN DIVISION OLABINJO OSUNDAIRO and ABIMBOLA OSUNDAIRO, Individually, Case No. 19-cv-2727 Plaintiffs, v. Honorable Matthew F. Kennelly MARK GERAGOS, TINA GLANDIAN, and GERAGOS & GERAGOS LAW FIRM, Defendants. MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF THE DEFENDANTS’ MOTION FOR SANCTIONS UNDER RULE 11 INTRODUCTION Plaintiffs have blatantly violated Fed. R. Civ. P. 11 by falsely asserting the source of an allegedly defamatory statement, by grossly mischaracterizing a defendant’s statements, and by pursuing a claim for respondeat superior that is not warranted by existing law. Plaintiffs attributed the statement about Plaintiffs’ bodybuilding techniques to Jussie Smollett’s lawyer, Tina Glandian, knowing that it was their own lawyer, Gloria Schmidt, who uttered it to the media.1 Also, in their zeal to drag a well-known lawyer into the case, Plaintiffs mischaracterized Mark Geragos’ statements, and their allegations against him are unfounded in fact. Finally, in an effort to dig into the pockets of Ms. Glandian’s law firm with their frivolous lawsuit, Plaintiffs filed an improper separate claim for respondeat superior. Unfortunately for Plaintiffs, the Illinois Supreme Court and this Court have determined that respondeat superior is not a separate cause of action. Defendants seek an order dismissing Plaintiffs’ baseless claims with prejudice and 1 Ms. Schmidt represents Plaintiffs in this matter.

  • CAST BIOGRAPHIES Season 2 RICKY WHITTLE
    CAST BIOGRAPHIES Season 2 RICKY WHITTLE (SHADOW MOON) Ricky Whittle was born in Oldham, near Manchester in the north of England. Growing up, Whittle excelled in various sports representing his country at youth level in football, rugby, American football and athletics. After being scouted by both Arsenal and Celtic Football Clubs, injuries forced him to pursue a law degree at Southampton University. It was here he began modeling, becoming the face of a Reebok campaign in 2000. Whittle left university to pursue an acting career and soon joined several action-packed seasons as bad boy Ryan Naysmith in Sky One’s “Dream Team.” Following that, Whittle quickly joined the U.K.’s hugely popular long-running drama, “Hollyoaks,” in which he played rookie cop Calvin Valentine to acclaim across 400+ episodes. In 2010, Whittle made the decision to relocate to California and, within months of settling in, booked the role of Captain George East in the romantic-comedy feature Austenland for Sony Pictures, which was produced by Twilight creator Stephanie Meyer. Additionally, he was soon cast in a major recurring role in VH1’s popular series, “Single Ladies.” Another major recurring role followed on The CW’s popular post-apocalyptic sci-fi series “The 100.” Whittle’s character, Lincoln, immediately became a fan-favorite character, so he was upped to a series regular. Simultaneously, Whittle also had a recurring arc as Daniel Zamora in ABC’s “Mistresses.” In 2016, after a vigorous casting process, Whittle won the coveted role of Shadow Moon in Starz’s “American Gods.” In 2017, Whittle was seen opposite Sanaa Lathan in the Netflix feature film Nappily Ever After, which is based on the novel of the same name by Trisha R.
