At that hearing, the Court indicated that it may need to better “understand[] how . the Watch List Advisory Council [WLAC] works” in order to assess the question of Plaintiffs’ standing to sue some of the defendants.1 Hearing Tr. at 9:6-9. It consequently ordered the parties to meet and confer regarding the parties “respective positions for expedited targeted discovery on standing in advance of merits-based discovery. (Dkt. 66). The parties have now met and conferred with respect to their positions on holding an evidentiary hearing (whether virtually or in person), or targeted jurisdictional discovery. Finding themselves unable to reach agreement, the Parties set forth their respective positions as follows: Plaintiffs’ Position: Plaintiffs believe an evidentiary hearing would be illuminating for the Court, but given the federal government’s propensity to mislead the public and courts about their watchlisting system, a hearing would be most useful if it followed targeted, adversarial discovery. Without this discovery, Defendants may be able to avoid liability for their actions by using national security nondisclosure as both a sword and shield or otherwise misstate how their watchlisting system 1 Defendants do not contest Plaintiffs’ standing against many Defendants.

Case No.: 1:18-cv-02849-ELH * UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, et al., * Defendant. * * * * * * * * * * * * * PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION, TO SUBSTITUTE DEFENDANT, AND TO EXPEDITE CONSIDERATION OF THESE MATTERS Plaintiff, the State of Maryland, hereby moves for a preliminary injunction as set forth below and for the reasons set forth in the accompanying Memorandum of Law in Support of Plaintiff’s Motion for a Preliminary Injunction. Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(a). Plaintiff seeks to restrain and enjoin defendants from answering the complaint and proceeding in this case with former Chief of Staff to the Attorney General Matthew G. Whitaker appearing in the official capacity of the Acting Attorney General. Additionally, plaintiff seeks to substitute Deputy Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein as Acting Attorney General in his official capacity in place of former Attorney General Jefferson B. Sessions III, under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 25. 1. On November 7, 2018, Sessions submitted his resignation as Attorney General to President Trump. See Letter from Jefferson B. Sessions III to President Donald J. Trump (Nov. 7, 2018), available at https://cnn.it/2SVkdaQ (last accessed Nov. 12, 2018). Shortly thereafter, President Trump appointed Whitaker as the Acting Attorney General. See Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump), Twitter (Nov. 7, 2018, 11:44AM), https://bit.ly/2STEopE. As demonstrated in the Memorandum, the appointment of Whitaker as Acting Attorney General instead of Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein violates the Attorney General Succession Act, 28 U.S.C.

  • The Specola Vaticana: Astronomy at the Vatican
    Organizations, People and Strategies in Astronomy 2 (OPSA 2), 217-230 Ed. A. Heck, © 2013 Venngeist. THE SPECOLA VATICANA: ASTRONOMY AT THE VATICAN GUY CONSOLMAGNO AND CHRISTOPHER CORBALLY Specola Vaticana V-00120, Vatican City State [email protected] [email protected] Abstract. The Vatican is an independent nation, with its own national astronomical observatory, the Specola Vaticana (Vatican Observatory). As- tronomy has been supported at the Vatican since the 1582 reform of the calendar; the present-day Observatory has been in operation since 1891. The work of the observatory is divided between two sites, one in the pa- pal summer gardens south of Rome, Italy, and the other affiliated with the Steward Observatory at the University of Arizona, in Tucson, Arizona, USA. Research undertaken by current staff members ranges from cosmol- ogy and the study of galactic evolution to meteoritics and meteors. Given the stable funding provided by the Vatican, the Observatory has specialized in long-term mapping and cataloguing projects that would be difficult to mount under a traditional three-year funding cycle. These have included participation in the Carte du Ciel photographic map of the sky; the at- lases of spectra produced by its Spectrochemical Laboratory; surveys of star clusters and peculiar stars; and the cataloguing of meteorite physical properties. 1. Astronomy in the Holy See Before 1891 To the Christian church, the study of creation has long been supported as an act of worshipping the Creator. Astronomy was one of the seven subjects that made up the curriculum of the medieval universities, which were themselves founded by the Church.

Read the latest, here. WASHINGTON — Convinced that the deputy attorney general, Rod J. Rosenstein, was ready to resign after the revelation that he suggested President Trump was unfit for the job, senior White House aides got to work last weekend installing a replacement. Matthew G. Whitaker, the chief of staff to Attorney General Jeff Sessions, would become the acting No. 2 official at the Justice Department, his White House counterpart, John F. Kelly, told him over the phone on Saturday morning, according to two people briefed on the call. To the White House, he was an obvious choice: a confident former college football player and United States attorney whom Mr. Kelly has privately described as the West Wing’s “eyes and ears” in a department the president has long considered at war with him. By late Monday morning, the plan was moot. Mr. Rosenstein was no longer committed to resigning, at least without assurances he was doing so on amicable terms with the president.

Hayford, Founder and Chancellor 2013-2014 Catalog Equipping Bible-Based, Christ-Centered, Theologically-Balanced, Culturally-Sensitive, Spirit-Empowered, Ministry-Minded, Servant Leaders for a New Millennium The King’s University 2121 E. Southlake Blvd. • Southlake, TX 76092 • Phone 817.552.3700 tku.edu 2 3 A MESSAGE FROM OUR FOUNDER Within the 21st century Church, there is a distinct need for an educational center of theological and ministerial training that is entirely committed to the biblical message, spiritual values, and passionate character of the Full-Gospel, Spirit-filled tradition of the global Pentecostal/Charismatic Movement. An educational center focused on the formation of spiritual servants who are as disciplined in the workings of the Holy Spirit as they are in the Word of God, so they may serve to cultivate a people of God who are balanced in their worship, witness, work, and warfare. The King’s University exists for all who seek a ministry that is: • Uncompromisingly biblical in theology and practice; • Ceaselessly passionate in pursuit of the Holy Spirit’s graces, gifts, and governing; and • Devotedly committed to the priorities of prayer, Spirit-filled worship, Spirit-inspired witness, and spiritual warfare. With this mission and purpose in mind for The King’s University, I am pleased to invite you to consider training here whether for professional ministry or for personal enrichment. I am thrilled that you have decided to obey God and to either step out in faith to begin the pilgrimage of preparing for the ministry and servanthood to which the Father is calling you, or having begun ministry, you have decided to better equip yourself to be a more effective servant in the Kingdom.
