. During subsequent years, membership in the “Singing Knights” was opened to any Knights of Columbus member from the Flint area. The membership today represents Michigan K of C councils in Grand Blanc, Burton, North Branch, Ortonville, Davison, Swartz Creek, Flushing, and Mt. Morris.
The group has performed for many functions of the Knights of Columbus in Michigan such as KC night at Tiger Stadium, Cobo Hall for the International K of C convention and the state convention on Mackinac Island. The Singing Knights have also been privileged to sing at Catholic Mass in many cathedrals and churches in the state. In 1982, the group traveled to Washington, D.C., to sing at the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception Cathedral in honor of the 100th anniversary of the Knights of Columbus. While there, it also performed at various Washington veterans’ hospitals. The chorus has also performed in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with the only other known K of C male chorus in America. This year the group held its 30th annual Cabaret (Spring Show and Dinner Dance) in May 2012, a show that has sold out every performance for the past fifteen years.
The Singing Knights value its membership in the GLMCA and look forward each year to take part with the members of the organization in the advancement of male chorus singing in Michigan.

“We welcome the publication of the Terms of Reference on the Commission of Investigation into whistleblower allegations concerning the Gardaí – and the most senior levels of Garda management.
“Public confidence in the Gardaí is at an all-time low, morale within the force, particularly at the boots on the street level, is suffering and one cannot blame individual Gardaí for there being low morale throughout the service given the constant ongoing controversies.
“Despite the fact that we have been told that no findings have been made against anyone in the Iarfhlaith O’Neill report, the Government does not intend to publish the report in full.
“While we are not in this chamber today to deliver any judgment against Commissioner Nóirín O’Sullivan or make any assertion regarding the veracity of David Taylor’s claims, it would be remiss of us not to note the alarming effect that the treatment Maurice McCabe has received following his allegations has had on him and his family.
“The allegations to be investigated by the Commission are shocking; in particular, the reference to the accusation that David Taylor was directed to draw journalists’ attention to an allegation of criminal misconduct made against Sgt McCabe and that this was the root of his motivation for whistleblowing, and the public are entitled to answers.
“While we recognise that the Commission has ‘discretion in relation to the scope of the investigation it considers necessary and appropriate to achieve the general objective of the investigation’, we would like to see the Terms of Reference amended to ensure that communications between members of An Garda Síochána and members of Government, members of the Oireachtas and other State agencies relevant to the matters are also examined.
Television and movies are filled with scenes involving courtroom trials. However, cases pending in appellate courts are not as commonly featured on the big or little screen. Nonetheless, the appellate process is a crucial element of the judicial system. Understanding the appellate process is fundamental for a person who wants to understand fully his or her rights within the judicial system.
Before an appeal from either a criminal or civil case can be filed there needs to be a final judgment of the trial level court. In a criminal case, that final judgment normally is considered to be the sentencing order of the court. In a civil case, the final judgment normally is considered to be the order disposing of all of the issues of the parties to the case itself.
When the final judgment is issued by the court, the next step in the process is the filing of what is known as a Notice of Appeal. A Notice of Appeal actually is filed with the trial court and is designed to give notice to both the trial court and the other party or parties to the case of a person’s intention to appeal.
It absolutely is crucial that the Notice of Appeal be filed within a timely manner. Each state has a specific statute governing the time frame for which a Notice of Appeal must be filed. If a person fails to file a Notice of Appeal within the time permitted by statute, that individual will be forever barred from raising an appeal. From a technical standpoint, the Notice of Appeal and the filing of that notice in a timely manner is considered jurisdictional. In other words, if it is not filed in the manner prescribed by law, the appellate court will never have jurisdiction over the case.
Once the Notice of Appeal is filed, the case moves onward to the appellate court itself. The appellate court will establish a time line for the filing of certain documents and materials with that court. This will include the appellate brief filed by the person lodging the appeal in the first instance.
Following the briefing process, in many cases a hearing will be held at which both sides of the case will present oral arguments to the court. These arguments normally are presented to by the attorneys representing the parties to the case.
It is important to understand that in most cases the appeal process can take from 12 to 18 months from start to finish. There are some instances in which the appellate process is accelerated for specific reasons. However, and again, in most cases the appellate process does not move at a rate faster than the 12 to 18 month time frame mentioned a moment ago in this article.
Finally, it is important to keep in mind that appellate law is a very specialized area in the legal professional. Therefore, a person facing the prospect of an appeal of case definitely will want to consider engaging the services of an experienced appellate attorney.

I'm relaying some thoughts on this since I used the men's version of this bag.
This bag was super light and with the compression sack it took up very little room. It was comfortable even a bit warm (had to be unzipped during a 42-degree night) The hood was generous and the cut was really comfortable especially through the hips.
Does this bag have a full side zipper?
