Partition is a film by award-winning director Ken McMullen.[1] The film is set in the turmoil surrounding the transfer of political power in British India from British to Indian hands and the Partition of the Indian subcontinent into the Dominion of Pakistan and the Republic of India in 1947. Made in 1987, the film was released on DVD in 2007. Its screening has been voted Time Out Critics' choice No 1 after 20 years.[2][3]

Keep your officers safe while transporting prisoners with Jotto Desk's line of vehicle partitions. Our system allows your department to configure the partition to maximize the officer's workspace while providing safe transport of prisoners. The partition's no holes drilled system makes installation fast and easy. Choose one of our two key sedan partition configurations to work best for your department.

The High Security/High Visibility (HS/HV) Window give officers the best of both worlds - tremendous sight lines, whether looking out the rearview or turning around and the 4"H x 11"W window allows for communication/passing information but there won't be anyone that will squeeze through this opening. If a prisoner spits/bleeds/smears the window, it is still cleanable, not so with those using the expanded metal. For those agencies that want a more traditional look - we have designed the Full Window w/Safety Wire. This opening is 11"H x 11"W and has a Safety Wire covering over that opening. This Safety Wire barrier can be removed for cleaning purposes without completely disassembling the partition window while providing the larger, more traditional look/size.

NOTE: This item does not include High Security Extension Panels (HSEPs). The Passenger Side and Driver Side HSEP's are available separately. Please ask your Sales Manager for more information.

In an earlier paper (Ghose A. K.; Crippen, G. M. J. Comput. Chem. 1986, 7, 565) the need of atomic physicochemical properties for three-dimensional-structure-directed quantitative structure-activity relationships was demonstrated, and it was shown how atomic parameters can be developed to successfully evaluate the molecular water-1-octanol partition coefficient, which is a measure of hydrophobicity. In the present work the atomic values of molar refractivity are reported. Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and halogens are divided into 110 atom types of which 93 atomic values are evaluated from 504 molecules by using a constrained least-squares technique. These values gave a standard deviation of 1.269 and a correlation coefficient of 0.994. The parameters were used to predict the molar refractivities of 78 compounds. The predicted values have a standard deviation of 1.614 and a correlation coefficient of 0.994. The degree of closeness of the linear relationship between the atomic water-1-octanol partition coefficients and molar refractivities has been checked by the correlation coefficient of 89 atom types used for both the properties. The correlation coefficient has been found to be 0.322. The low value suggests that both parameters can be used to model the intermolecular interaction. The origin of these physicochemical properties and the types of interaction that can be modeled by these properties have been critically analyzed.

The tumultuous events surrounding the sub-continent's partition in 1947 into India and Pakistan are re-imagined in Ken McMullen's complex and visually striking film. A lunatic asylum in the city of Lahore becomes a mirror image of events in the outside political world, with the same actors playing both inmates and rulers. Adapted by Tariq Ali and McMullen from famous Urdu writer Saadat Hasan Manto's short story 'Toba Tek Singh', Partition speaks for the countless millions that the usual British Raj films sweep out of sight. Released to mark the 60th anniversary of the partition of the Indian sub-continent, this is the film's first-ever release on DVD.

Formally unique and compelling (there's echoes of Peter Watkins here, in the staged reconstructions of India in a London warehouse, but McMullen seems more concerned with beauty in form than Watkins). But ultimately the woodenness of many of the speeches and the low ideas/minute ratio bog down the proceedings. Easy to appreciate, hard to love.

This is a partition suit brought by the former wife of a military serviceman to obtain division of military retirement benefits. The trial court rendered summary judgment partitioning the retirement benefits. The court of appeals reversed the summary judgment and rendered judgment for the former serviceman/husband holding that the prior divorce decree had disposed of the retirement benefits and was accordingly res judicata of the issue. 726 S.W.2d 615 (Tex.App.1987) A majority of this court reverses the judgment of the court of appeals and affirms the judgment of the trial court.

The divorce decree was rendered after the decision in McCarty v. McCarty, 453 U.S. 210, 101 S. Ct. 2728, 69 L. Ed. 2d 589 (1981), but before the effective date of the Uniformed Services Former Spouses Protection Act, 10 U.S.C. 1408 (February 1, 1983). McCarty forbade the division of military retirement benefits by state courts and further forbid any adjustment in the award of other community property to balance the loss of these benefits. The effect of USFSPA was to erase all memory of McCarty. See Allison v. Allison, 700 S.W.2d 914 (Tex.1985).

*300 Since the enactment of USFSPA, we have approved partition as a means to remedy certain injustices caused by McCarty. Partition, however, has been limited to those post-McCarty divorce decrees which did not expressly award the military retirement benefits to the serviceman. Compare Harrell v. Harrell, 692 S.W.2d 876 (Tex.1985) with Allison v. Allison, 700 S.W.2d 914 (Tex.1985). The express award of retirement benefits in a divorce decree operates as a bar to any subsequent partition suit under principles of res judicata. Constance v. Constance, 544 S.W.2d 659, 660-61 (Tex.1976).

The court of appeals in the present case attempts to apply Constance, holding that the following language constitutes an express award of the military retirement benefits: "All relief requested in this case and not expressly granted herein be and is hereby denied." To construe this language, the court of appeals looked behind the judgment to the pleadings of the former wife which purportedly sought part of the military retirement benefits. The court of appeals then deduced that the failure to award the former wife a share of the military retirement benefits must have been an award of such benefits to the former serviceman/husband because a judgment which incorporates the above language "expressly disposes of all parties and issues in the case," citing Schlipf v. Exxon Corporation, 644 S.W.2d 453 (Tex.1982) and Northeast I.S.D. v. Aldridge, 400 S.W.2d 893 (Tex.1966).

The rule from these cases has no application here. The purpose for the language recommended in Aldridge and incorporated in the parties' divorce decree is to aid the determination of whether a particular judgment is final or interlocutory. A final judgment is one that disposes of all parties and issues in the case and the recommended language certainly serves to resolve all issues. There is, however, no dispute but that the divorce decree which preceded the present partition suit was a final judgment. Omission of certain community property from a divorce decree does not affect its finality. If it did, we would have no need for the rule that community property which is not divided on divorce is held by the former spouses as tenants in common. Busby v. Busby, 457 S.W.2d 551, 554 (Tex.1970).

The divorce decree does not expressly award the military retirement benefits to the former serviceman/husband. The court of appeals' application of the doctrine of res judicata to bar this partition suit is erroneous and in conflict with our prior decision in Harrell v. Harrell, 692 S.W.2d 876 (Tex.1985). Pursuant to Tex.R. App.P. 133(b), a majority of this court grants the application for writ of error and, without hearing oral argument, reverses the judgment of the court of appeals and renders judgment affirming that of the trial court.
