The Central Missouri Humane Society has worked out a contract with the Columbia/Boone County health department for animal control services for 2009, although the agreement would pay the shelter about $195,000 less than it initially sought.

Trial court did not err in rendering summary judgment for defendant in action for breach of contract, quantum meruit, and on account. Letter accompanying one of two checks paid to, and cashed by, plaintiff, put plaintiff clearly on notice that his services were terminated and the accompanying payment was intended to be payment in full for services previously performed, thus constituting an accord and satisfaction.

HONG KONG -- Protesters opposed to lowering trade barriers swung bamboo sticks at police Saturday and tried to storm a convention center where World Trade Organization delegates were negotiating a global accord on farming, manufacturing and services. At least 70 people were injured. Negotiators met overnight into today trying to overcome differences on a draft text, but failed to agree on a deadline to eliminate agricultural export subsidies.
