EMBARGOED UNTIL 8:40AM PT ON JULY 14, 2016 68th EMMY® AWARDS NOMINATIONS For Programs Airing June 1, 2015 – May 31, 2016 Los Angeles, CA, July 14, 2016– Nominations for the 68th Emmy® Awards were announced today by the Television Academy in a ceremony hosted by Television Academy Chairman and CEO Bruce Rosenblum along with Anthony Anderson from the ABC series black-ish and Lauren Graham from Parenthood and the upcoming Netflix revival, Gilmore Girls. "Television dominates the entertainment conversation and is enjoying the most spectacular run in its history with breakthrough creativity, emerging platforms and dynamic new opportunities for our industry's storytellers," said Rosenblum. “From favorites like Game of Thrones, Veep, and House of Cards to nominations newcomers like black-ish, Master of None, The Americans and Mr. Robot, television has never been more impactful in its storytelling, sheer breadth of series and quality of performances by an incredibly diverse array of talented performers. “The Television Academy is thrilled to once again honor the very best that television has to offer.” This year’s Drama and Comedy Series nominees include first-timers as well as returning programs to the Emmy competition: black-ish and Master of None are new in the Outstanding Comedy Series category, and Mr. Robot and The Americans in the Outstanding Drama Series competition. Additionally, both Veep and Game of Thrones return to vie for their second Emmy in Outstanding Comedy Series and Outstanding Drama Series respectively. While Game of Thrones again tallied the most nominations (23), limited series The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story and Fargo received 22 nominations and 18 nominations respectively. -

N.D. Supreme Court Lembke v. Unke, 171 N.W.2d 837 (N.D. 1969) Filed Oct. 27, 1969 [Go to Documents] IN THE SUPREME COURT STATE OF NORTH DAKOTA Caroline Lembke, and Jeanette Waxvik, Guardian ad litem of Kenneth Lembke and Gloria Lembke, Minors, Plaintiffs and Appellants in the District Court, Respondents in the Supreme Court v. Clara Unke, Elsie Stegman, Walter Lembke, Leonard Lembke, Gloria Lembke, Kenneth Lembke, Larry Lembke, Jerry Lembke, Louise Lembke, Rodney Lembke, Ronald Unke, Eileen Ferris, Wayne Stegman, Dwaine Lembke, Melvin Lembke, William Lembke, Odean Lembke, Dennis Lembke, and Raymond Lembke; and Harry Carlson, as Special Guardian of Gloria Lembke, Kenneth Lembke, Jerry Lembke, Louise Lembke, Odean Lembke, Dennis Lembke, Rodney Lembke, Wayne Stegman, William Lembke, and Raymond Lembke, Minors, Respondents in the Supreme Court, Defendants and Respondents in the District Court, Elsie Stegman, Walter Lembke, Leonard Lembke, and Clara Unke, individually and as Executrix of the Will of Louis Lembke, Deceased, Appellants in the Supreme Court. No. 8486 [171 N.W.2d 838] Syllabus of the Court 1. The common law is not immutable but flexible, and by its own principles adapts itself to varying conditions. 2. In a contest over the validity of a will in which the testamentary capacity of the testator is involved, the heirs who contest the will, as well as the one nominated as executor, may waive the physician-patient privilege insofar as the testimony of the physician relates to the mental capacity of the patient-testator. 3. Believing that the objective of N.D.C.C. § 31-01-06(3) is in no way thwarted by permitting those who stand in the place of or represent decedents to waive the privilege and that justice will be more apt to result from such waiver, because it will aid in reaching the truth as to the existence of testamentary capacity on the part of the patient, we hold that the trial court in the instant case was correct in permitting the attending physician to give his opinion concerning the mental capacity of the patient-testator. -
Lasso at the Ready
Lasso at the ready September 11, 2019 Josh Valdez, who works in materials management at the Laboratory, sits on his well- trained horse, one gloved hand on the reins while the other grasps a rope ready to be deployed. Valdez looks over at a metal chute that contains his quarry, a large steer. On the other side of this chute is his roping partner, who in turn looks over and gives Valdez a quick nod. At Valdez’s command, the chute’s door flies open and the steer breaks out running. Seconds later, Josh sprints his horse forward and lassos the steer’s horns or neck, tightening the other end of the rope against the saddle’s horn. Valdez then uses his horse to turn the steer slightly sideways, enough so that the animal kicks up his hind legs. That’s when his partner who comes from the other side launches his own rope, catching the steer’s kicking legs. “Team roping is the one true team competition at a rodeo,” explains Valdez. “It requires close cooperation and timing between two ropers and their horses. The goal of team roping is to catch a steer in the quickest time possible.” Although amateur and professional rodeos feature team roping as a sport, the skills learned to rope and control cattle remain an integral part of ranch life. “Team roping started back in the day when cowboys needed to catch steers either to treat injuries or to brand their hides,” says Valdez. “Large steers are much too tough to handle for one person, so that’s why two ropers and two horses are used.” Valdez was 14 years old when he started participating in team roping. -

DETERMINING DIVERSITY JURISDICTION OF NATIONAL BANKS AFTER WACHOVIA BANK V. SCHMIDT Michael Podolsky* Prior to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Wachovia Bank v. Schmidt, some courts held, for diversity jurisdiction purposes, that national banks were citizens of each and every state in which they had a branch. In Schmidt, the Supreme Court made it clear that this approach was incorrect, but failed to provide an alternative one. Not surprisingly, in the wake of that decision another court split developed. While some courts have found that national banks are citizens only of the state listed on their charters as their main office, others have found that national banks are also citizens of the state that is their principal place of business. This Note contends that congressional intent and equitable considerations mandate that national banks be considered citizens of both the state listed on their charter as their main office and the state that is their principal place of business. -
Charrería: the Artisanship of Mexican Equestrian Culture
Arte en la Charrería: The Artisanship of Mexican Equestrian Culture Educational Program by International Arts & Artists Table of Contents: I. What is Charrería? II. Events of the Charreada III. The origins of the Charreada IV. About the Exhibition V. Discussion Topics VI. Resource List VII. Glossary I. What is Charrería? Charrería is a Mexican cultural tradition that stems from the Spanish-inspired charreada. The charreada is a festive event that is similar to an American rodeo in its variety of competitive equestrian activities. Like the American “rodeo culture,” Charrería extends beyond horses and riders to include aspects such as costume, music, and food that bring a uniquely Latino culture to a sport that has its roots in Spain. The charreada began in Mexico in the 16th century when horses were introduced by the Spanish. As the Spanish tried to develop Central America for their own economic gain, they created an entire culture centered around agriculture and ranching in the haciendas they constructed. This is the culture that is reflected in Charrería. Although the main event is foreign-inspired, the culture reflected in the clothing, saddles, belts, hats, and spurs is largely inspired by traditional indigenous art. The Charrería has endured over five centuries because of the strength of the skills, sensibilities, and traditions that transcend regional and generational differences. Fearing the eventual loss of the Charrería culture, a group of charros, or the “cowboys,” who participate in the charreadas, united and formed various associations to preserve and promote this national culture. The Federación Mexicana de Charrería was founded in Mexico City in 1933 to govern the different charros associations that emerged. -

The most important tools were his horse and catch rope. Erickson himself worked for eight years as a roping cowboy and has written other books on the West; he spent seven additional years re searching Catch Rope. Although relying heavily on anecdote, Erickson carefully notes his sources and is critical of writers who make undocumented claims. The book mixes his torical analysis with tall and not-so-tall tales, interviews, and personal experience, all to communicate both the method and the mad ness of the roping cowboys. Using secondary accounts, Erickson suggests the antiquity of the catch rope (what we green horns call the lasso or lariat, terms Erickson rarely uses). -
