There is nothing I love to do more than to have one-on-one time with my children. Don't get me wrong, playing with all three of them at the same time is crazy silly fun but as the saying goes… it's all fun and games until…
It's easy to think of one-on-one activities to do with the older two. Lenny loves it when we sit on the floor and play Lego, Stella loves it when we play Barbies and dress ups together and Hazel, well, Hazel just loves any attention at this age whether it be playing with toys on the mat, reading together or bouncing on my knee! One of my favourite things to do with her, and something we have been doing for quite a few months now, is to give her a baby massage.
We first started the baby massage when Hazel was two months old. I posted a pic of Hazel on our instagram account and asked for natural remedy ideas to help get her poop flowing! She was only pooping once a week (as did all my kids when they were young) and it didn't seem to bother her, but by the end of the week she was starting to become unsettled and irritable until she had managed to relieve herself. Suzanne Kelly from Suzanne Kelly Infant Massage saw my post and contacted me to see if I would be interested in her teaching me some baby massage techniques specifically designed to relieve constipation in babies. I was intrigued and willing to give anything (that didn't involve medicine) a go!
Suzanne delivers her massage classes from her home in Seaford or she can come to you. I opted to have Suzanne come to our house seeming it was easier at that stage with a young baby and a toddler to manage. As soon as I met Suzanne I immediately felt at ease, she was so lovely and just so beautiful with Hazel with a very friendly, caring nature. A grandmother herself, Suzanne made us us both relaxed and ready to learn her techniques to help get things flowing!
Suzanne was super knowledgeable about all of the wonderful benefits of learning infant massage for both baby and parents. I know personally how good I feel after receiving a massage with all those happy endorphins being released! So, imagine how good it must feel for a little bubba! It also has many proven health benefits including building a stronger immune system and the lymphatic exercises can help with bubs coordination, fine and gross motor skills. It's also a fantastic holistic approach for helping with wind, colic, constipation and reflux which is exactly what it did for Hazel.
After just our first session with Suzanne, and literally just a couple of hours after Suzanne had left my house, Hazel did a big poop! I couldn't believe it! Her little tummy was all soft and she was all smiles. I now try and give Hazel a massage at least every second day. The length of the massage is always determined by Hazel, if she's happy and responsive then we will usually get through most of the sequence, sometimes though I just do her legs while I'm changing her nappy or her arms and back as we play on the mat. Stella likes to get involved too, dutifully spreading out the towel for me and getting Hazel's oil down from the shelf. I love watching her massage her baby dolls, mimicking me as I stroke Hazel. So cute!
One thing I absolutely loved about learning the techniques with Suzanne was her sincere passion for helping parents connect with their babies and the fact that you can carry the technique through as your children grow. Booking some sessions would make a great gift for new parents if you are looking for something a little different than the norm as it's a skill the parents can learn together and then offer to subsequent children. It would also be a great exercise to do as a mothers group, booking in for a group session and learning the techniques together. Suzanne is a qualified Paediatric Massage Consultant and really does have a knack with helping bubs feel relaxed.
"Parents feel more confident, less stressed and feel a closer bond with their baby after learning Infant Massage. Infant Massage increases dopamine levels in both baby and parent, as well as oxytocin which is a feel good, happy hormone. Cortisol (stress hormone) is also decreased in both baby and parent via infant massage and it's a lovely way to include Dad in the care of their new baby." – Suzanne Kelly.

Under the service pharmacies will dispense repeat dispensing prescriptions issued by a GP and will store the documentation if required by the patient. They will ensure that each repeat supply is required and seek to ascertain that there is no reason why the patient should be referred back to their GP.Repeat dispensing service specification Further information and resources can be found on the PSNC website: click here

There are still no great winter climbing conditions to speak of and my axes hang forlornly in my gear cupboard, almost ready to be used fully leashless if need be.
On the plus side, it's giving me ample oppurtunity to do some hillwalks in the cold wind, and to get my running back up to speed, in preperation for getting fit after feeling ill. Unfortunately being back to climbing, running and the hills has meant my neck/shoulder/arm problem has insidiously crept back again!
Friday saw the 2nd round of the Avertical World winter bouldering series in which I did slightly better than last week and in which RB came first as usual, again beating all the Junior Boys and most definitely beating all the women in the Easy category too.
The 1st 10 problems seemed pretty easy this time round and the 2nd 10 much harder, with several of them being just far too reachy rather than being overly technical. Very frustrating, more so for Bekah who has far more chance of actually managing something technical! Also, there were no fun or daft problems this time round which was a bit disappointing.
Sunday's forecast was better, but we woke this day to rain which fortunately stopped around 9ish as we set off for the Corbett Ben Gulabin in Glenshee. Neither of us had been up this hill so it seemed a good choice for a short day to beat the gales and rain that were forecast for later in the day. It's a very easy hill, starting at around 350m and following a track all the way to the summit at 806m. We didn't hang around for long as the wind was picking up, the mist had rolled in and there were no great views to speak of. Again I think these hills would make great running ground, with their big wide tracks and easy ground and one can follow paths and tracks to the munros to the North, avoiding all the ski palaver if one so desires. As it was, we were up and down in around an hour and half and back in the van just as the rain started to fall.

As some of you have probably seen, there were some updates to the 2012 edition of NFPA 1983: Standard on Life Safety Rope and Equipment for Emergency Services. One notable adjustment, and the one I'll be discussing here, was the change in terminology from Light Use (L) to Technical Use (T). The NFPA Technical Committee (these are the guys who call the shots) thought about calling it "Rescue Use" but eventually settled on Technical Use instead.
But why did they bother making the switch at all?
Well, it's a good question, and while I don't sit on the Committee, it seems that throughout the development of the 2012 edition, there was general concern that the "Light Use" term was confusing and misleading to practitioners, instructors, and policy makers. Basically the Committee was worried that people were equating "Light Use" with "not-good-enough-for-any-type-of-rescue." So enter "Technical Use!" Because that's exactly it, Light/Technical Use equipment is still perfectly great for rescue purposes...when used properly.
When employing any sort of rescue gear, it is important to know how it works, what its limitations are and how it will be used in the system. For example, if you know the forces that are going to be applied to this one T-rated carabiner are simply one person leaning against it for edge protection and restraint, then you know that the carabiner has the strength to fulfill that duty. Now, take that same carabiner and attempt to use it as the MPA for a basket stretcher along with a litter attendant who has a number of tricky edge transitions, well, that's a whole different game.
The big key to Technical Use equipment is, and always has been, about really understanding the equipment and how/when it is used. And of course backing it all up with great rescue training and skill!
So can Technical Use equipment be a part of your rescue arsenal? Absolutely, so long as it's used by people with the appropriate training and in the appropriate manner.
Stay safe

Only one game is scheduled in the WPL this weekend as the re-arranged fixture between The New Saints and Bala Town goes ahead on Friday night.
TNS are 12 points clear at the top of the WPL table and need no more than seven points from their remaining six games to secure their title.
Following their disappointing Welsh Cup defeat at Connah's Quay and a 1-1 draw with Cardiff Met, TNS have gone two games without a win for the first time in this domestic season.
Only one point separate the three teams in the race for 2nd place (Bala, Connah's Quay, Bangor), but a win for Bala on Friday would put them in the driving seat, four points clear of the rest.
Colin Caton's men are on a solid run, losing only once in their last 11 games, with their only defeat coming against TNS (0-3).
Bala failed to score in their two meetings with TNS in the first phase, and have not scored more than twice in any game since October.
Bala Town will be hoping for a repeat performance from last April, when they beat The New Saints for the first and only time in the Welsh Cup final (2-1).
Last meetings:
Bala Town 0-3 The New Saints (02/01/18)
The New Saints 3-0 Bala Town (19/08/17)

I admit it.
I like Beck's beer.
I'm sad to see that they've been misleading us for some time, since it is no longer an imported beer:
May keep drinking it, since it is far better than many of the other alternatives.
So, anyone got other suggestions for a reasonably priced, authentic, brewed in Germany, lager, or pilsner beer?
I'm not really fond of the darker, more bitter biers.
Warstiener, St Pauli Girl, Spaten.
Warstiener Dunkel. It's yummy. And brings many happy memories of my two tours of duty to mind.
I used to have a Spaten, occasionally, and do like it.
I thought St. Pauli Girl is American too.
I am spoiled on Czech beer, but when I must go to Germany the only pils I find drinkable is Warsteiner. Now a nice hefeweizen on a sunny Bavarian day is another story!
I've switched to microbreweries. The big players like MillerCoors and InBev really only sell a "brand" and the beer could be brewed in any country.
St Pauli is brewed in Germany for export only. Spaten may be brewed in Canada as many European and Asian beers now are but I think it is still brewed over seas.
On the plus side, looks like I may be able to get a little money back, if the lawyers don't siphon all of it off, first.
There's a poo-storm erupted in the UK over 'Doom Bar', which is currently the UK's most popular draught bitter. The Doom Bar logo always includes the provenance 'Rock Brewery, Cornwall'.
However, the brewery was bought by Coors about five years ago and people have only just cottoned on to the fact that the vast majority of "Doom Bar (Rock, Cornwall)" is actually brewed 250 miles away from Cornwall in Coors' brewery at Burton-on-Trent (the former Bass brewery).
Storm them with torches and pitchforks, I say……..
I like German styles of beer but for the most part their exports have a lot to be desired
All beer sold in the U.S. are fraudulent. I dunno, maybe that's changed, but I could never understand how I could swing back so many for comparable levels of inebriation I used to get on nearly half the same volume up north. --Tim
Luv Budvar but I prefer Porters.
"Doom Bar (Rock, Cornwall)" is actually brewed 250 miles away from Cornwall in Coors' brewery at Burton-on-Trent (the former Bass brewery).
That explains why it's gone so bland.
Recommendations if you can find these:
1) Wurzburger
2) Bitburger
3) Hofbrau
4) Hacker-Pschorr
5) Dinkelacker
6) Franziskaner Weissbier
Sorry I omitted the umlauts – my keyboard doesn't have any.
You're ok with hand-pulled Doom Bar – that's still brewed in Rock.
Sorry they do KEG Doom Bar? – Civilization has ended.
Good God, no! I was talking about the bottled muck. I agree though, cask Doom Bar now tastes nothing like it did when I first came across it down in Dorset some years ago. They are now selling something like 25 million pints of the stuff per year.
Sorry - only verified members can post on the forums.

If you are hosting a party or planning an event, there are many reasons for you to consider hiring a professional bartender to come in and take charge of your beverages.
As a host, the last thing you want to do is have to worry that all of your guests are comfortable and have what they want when they want it. Ideally, you would like to be able to enjoy your party and actually have fun. You can also visit http://coupleofbartenders.com/ to hire a private bartender
On the off chance that you have a barkeep accountable for the beverages, that is one less thing for you to stress over. Your visitors can get some R&R however they see fit you worrying.
Another awesome reason to employ a barkeep is to awe your visitors and influence your event to look all around arranged and set up together.
The barkeep will likewise keep the bar region perfect and clean. Rather than having a wreck of containers strewn over the counter, the barkeep will have everything sorted out.
Have you at any point facilitated a get-together and came up short on liquor? This is one of the most exceedingly terrible things that could occur at an occasion. By hosting a barkeep at your get-together, they can control the measure of liquor utilized as a part of each drink, and monitor what is being utilized the most and what is going to run out.

From Goodreads:
New York Times bestselling author Deanna Raybourn takes readers into Africa during the height of British colonialism, to meet a man as wild as the land he loves in this prequel novella....
Kenya, 1918
Ryder White is Canadian by birth but African by choice. He is more at home in the wilds of the savannah, shooting and sleeping his way across the continent, than amongst the hedonistic colonists of Kenyan society.
In a landscape where one false move can cost a man his life, Ryder's skill as a guide is unparalleled, but only the rich or royal can afford his services. When a European prince hires Ryder to help him hunt an elusive leopard Ryder thinks it's just another well-paying job with yet another spoiled voyeur. But this perilous journey is full of dangers that may change Ryder forever....
Ryder returns in A Spear of Summer Grass by Deanna Raybourn, where he encounters a woman from a very different world, to explore beauty and darkness and what is truly worth fighting for.
From Goodreads:
Paris, 1923
The daughter of a scandalous mother, Delilah Drummond is already notorious, even amongst Paris society. But her latest scandal is big enough to make even her oft-married mother blanch. Delilah is exiled to Kenya and her favorite stepfather's savannah manor house until gossip subsides.
Fairlight is the crumbling, sun-bleached skeleton of a faded African dream, a world where dissolute expats are bolstered by gin and jazz records, cigarettes and safaris. As mistress of this wasted estate, Delilah falls into the decadent pleasures of society.
Against the frivolity of her peers, Ryder White stands in sharp contrast. As foreign to Delilah as Africa, Ryder becomes her guide to the complex beauty of this unknown world. Giraffes, buffalo, lions and elephants roam the shores of Lake Wanyama amid swirls of red dust. Here, life is lush and teeming-yet fleeting and often cheap.
Amidst the wonders-and dangers-of Africa, Delilah awakes to a land out of all proportion: extremes of heat, darkness, beauty and joy that cut to her very heart. Only when this sacred place is profaned by bloodshed does Delilah discover what is truly worth fighting for-and what she can no longer live without.
My first review of A Spear of Summer Grass
My Review:
I utterly enjoyed these books! They were so awesome, amazing, and just great to read, entertaining, a little thought provoking, and just so incredible, and loveable! Especially the characters, Delilah and Ryder, Jude and Tusker, Kit and Gideon, Moses and Mossy!
The novella was pretty awesome, being in Ryder's head, and seeing things that happened earlier, things that were mentioned or told as stories in A Spear of Summer Grass, the lion that he shot in town, how he got the scars on his arm. And the possibility that the guy unconscionably let things fall out that Ryder could die, because Ryder was with the lady that the prince dude had brought long. Yeah.
Loved the mystery, though it did hurt people, seeing as Kit died, which is too bad, since then he wasn't there for the show of his work. But between the fire, and his death, and the fact that the police focused on the easiest target, the natives, and in particular, Gideon,
There was the one story, of what really happened between Ryder and his wife, and how she was pregnant with his best friend's baby, the best friend who left to go marry Jude, so yeah, there was that, and that has me wondering if the baby, or child now, since a few years have passed, will have a story to tell in City of Jasmine!
Favourite lines from A Spear of Summer Grass: "I had learned that particular soothing ton from Mossy. She usually used it on horses, but I found it worked equally well with men. Maybe better." And that says something about males! "Not bloody likely, darling." Because you like your liquor and smokes too much? "I had instructed them to paint it the same scarlet as my lipstick, which the dealer couldn't seem to understand until I had left a crimson souvenir of my kiss on the wall of his office." Which is a bit weird, but OK!"No doubt he was keeping me waiting to impress upon me the significance of his position, so I looked around and waited for him to get tired of his own importance." Which, really, is hardly anything! "I didn't say I got to his heart first, Do. I got there first." So which does he value more, his heart, or his private parts? "...a wilderness that hadn't changed since eve went dancing in a fig-leaf skirt." Now that's an image! "His town was so calm, so matter-of-fact, we might have been discussing what he wanted for dinner rather than whether he would live or die." Though he is the type to get into this type of situation often, and might be a bit used to it! "I looked like a walking wedding night." Surely a wedding night would be better then how she looks! "I wasn't surprised his shirts had outlived him." Mine don't! I break things too easily! "'I left for London to go to a wedding.' 'So? That shouldn't of stopped us.' 'I was the bride.'" That just might have stopped the 2 of you! "Uncouth, but entirely sterling of character-one of the best. I hate him." That goes together well-ish! "It was an ongoing game, and she was ahead of me in the tally by five thousand points, but I hoped to make it up eventually. I suspected she was cheating, but I never could figure out how." That is a lot of points! "'Not that I've found,' he replied cheerfully." I don't know if it's a good thing that there's no other place more dangerous, or bad! "Not where I come from. By great-grandmother is past ninety and still she manages a sugar plantation that runs to twenty thousand acres. She tends cattle, deliver babies, keeps the books and she cracks the whip on anybody who gets out of line, including her six sons." That's pretty impressive! "Gideon, I think Mr. Bell wouldn't have bothered with the telephone if he'd had any experience with the marvels of the African bush." It is pretty darned fast! "Well, I've never claimed to love Jesus, Mr. Halliwell. In fact, we're barely acquainted." Just goes to show, you can't say anything about Delilah, assume anything, because it'll probably go badly! "Men are such children. Really, I've seen male lions mauling each other with more subtlety." They don't like growing up! "Don't worry. I have my gun. If I hear something coming toward my tent, I'll just shoot first and worry about what it might have been later." So watch out! "I thought instead of a last mean he might like a last-" Yeah, don't let him finish that sentence! "He said the whole country is too damned small. gave him claustrophobia." Well, it is just an admittedly large island, but it's borders aren't really going to change! "I looked like the world's biggest paperweight." Which would be something to see! "Now take me in, gingernut." Because of his hair? "As soon as you get my lawyer. Until then, you can go hang yourself." Loved how she played him when he thought he was playing her! "He's my ex-husband." And a pretty good person. And he'll come! "And then I had to ruin it all by getting involved with a man who went and got himself murdered. The irony almost choked me." Yeah, it sucks for everyone! "I married a lovely girl and ended up with my own grandmother." Which sounds really bad!
Yeah, this was just a fantastic 2 part series, and with a spin off 2 part series, and yeah, just so good, and I just love them so much!

Nesplnenie povinnosti.
Vec C-101/91.
ECLI identifier: ECLI:EU:C:1992:413
delivered on 28 October 1992 ( *1 )
Mr President,
Members of the Court,
By three decisions ( 1 ) the Council authorized Italy to derogate temporarily, until 31 December 1983, from the rules contained in the Sixth VAT Directive in such a way that VAT was not charged in connection with emergency relief for the victims of the earthquake which had struck southern Italy in November 1980.
On 21 February 1989 the Court gave judgment in a case brought by the Commission against Italy. ( 2 ) The Court declared that
'by granting, for the period between 1 January 1984 and 31 December 1988, an exemption from value-added tax with reimbursement of the tax paid at the preceding stage in respect of certain transactions carried out for earthquake victims in Campania and Basilicata, the Italian Republic infringed Article 2 of the Sixth Council Directive ...'.
In the present case the Commission claims that the Court should declare that, by failing to take the measures necessary to comply with the judgment of the Court of 21 February 1989 in Case 203/87, the Italian Republic has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 171 of the EEC Treaty.
The Italian Republic, which does not dispute that the VAT exemption which was the subject-matter of the Court's judgment in Case 203/87 has been maintained until the end of 1992, essentially makes two submissions in its defence.
It submits first of all that it is clear from the operative part of the judgment in Case 203/87 that that judgment limited its effects to the application of the VAT exemption during the period from 1 January 1984 to 31 December 1988. The application of the exemption after the period taken into consideration by the Court in its judgment in Case 203/87 cannot therefore be regarded as conduct constituting a breach of the obligation to comply with that judgment as laid down in Article 171.
That argument must certainly be rejected. The operative part of the judgment must be construed with reference to the grounds which form its essential support. Paragraph 10 of the judgment in Case 203/87 does not attach any temporal limitation to the finding of a breach of obligations since it simply states that Italy infringed Article 2 of the Directive by prolonging the exemption, without the Council's authorization, beyond the date prescribed by the Council when it temporarily authorized the derogation. Italy does not argue that there was any break between the period considered in Case 203/87 and the period which followed. Far from being exhausted, the effects of the judgment in Case 203/87 necessarily cover Italy's subsequent conduct which amounts to a continued breach of the same obligation.
Moreover, that legal view corresponds to the view taken by the Court in its judgment of 8 May 1991 in Case 266/89 Commission v Italy. ( 3 )
The Italian Government submits in the second place that the VAT exemption is covered by the rules in the Treaty on state aid and is compatible with the common market in accordance with Article 92(2)(b) concerning aid granted consequent upon natural disasters.
That argument was also put forward by the Italian Government in Case 203/87. The Court did not expressly consider it, no doubt because it was put forward too late — see in this regard the Opinion of Advocate General Mischo in which he proposed that the argument should be rejected for being out of time.
In my view, the legal argument in this case is circumscribed by the judgment in Case 203/87; for reasons of legal certainty, Italy should not be allowed to put forward an argument which it could have raised but which it did not properly put forward in Case 203/87. The Commission argues rightly that the procedure for establishing that Italy has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 171 may not be turned into an informal appeal against the judgment in Case 203/87.
For those reasons I propose that the Court should uphold the Commission's claim and order the Italian Republic to pay the costs.

With International Women's Day being a vocal topic over the last week or so, Assystem Energy & Infrastructure is calling for the engineering industry to make a stand for female engineers in a bid to highlight that the industry is arguably 'falling short' when it comes to gender diversity and there is a real need to enhance industry appeal and drive female interest.
The UK is already in a clear engineering skills deficit and in desperate need for talent to complete current nuclear projects and remain competitive.
Assystem recognises the current imbalance in numbers between men and women in the engineering sector, especially in senior leadership positions and is determined to drive the movement forward. Ensuring that the industry is collectively working towards enhanced equal opportunities; better supporting industry talent, while driving new, younger talent to enter the ever-demanding industry.
Leading the movement Assystem E&I has recently signed the Women in Nuclear Charter:
In addition, Assystem is launching a global equality initiative: #IncredibleWomen programme to further increase the number of females in the industry.
Anne-Charlotte Dagorn, Head of the #IncredibleWomen Diversity Programme at Assystem E&I is interested in talking about why the industry needs to make a stand. Why it's vital for the engineering industry works towards achieving gender equality, and the clear industry need to strike a better balance.
The industry needs to support/attract more talented women, and gender equality can be better achieved in this industry. This is why the #IncredibleWomen programme will promote scientific and technical fields among female students and give them career opportunities within the engineering sector.
Dominique Louis, Chairman & CEO, Assystem explained: "We are now facing unprecedented challenges, whether environmental, technological, political or economic. Our capacity to tackle them will be greatly improved by ensuring a gender-balanced representation in discussions and decision making, starting with the business world. There is a clear industry need to strike a better gender balance, provide enhanced support for development and ultimately promote a more equalised view of the nuclear sector in order to support and attract more talented women. At Assystem, we have made gender diversity and the empowerment of women a fundamental element of our development strategy and urge other industry leaders to follow suite."

Thoughts on Christ Centered Ministry
Posted in Christian Living, College, preaching, The Cross on February 12, 2008| 1 Comment »
I was going through some old handouts that the old directors of Campus Crusade for Christ at Eastern Kentucky Unversity gave to a group of us they were training to teach Bible studies. I came upon a couple articles that were a good reminder to me about what my ministry with CRU and at church should be focused on, Christ. It seems so simple but is that really the message of our ministry.
In and article "Thoughts on Christ Centered Ministry" by Rick Howe he says
I. The Key Question
What is the "sub-text" of our ministries? That is, when are around us, our weekly meetings, our small groups, our conferences and projects, etc. what is the subtle, yet clearly heard message beneath our outward messages?
This message can often be some like: "Aren't I great?" or "Aren't we great?" or "Don't we do things great around here?" (Tim Keller, Redeemer Press)
We need to strive to make the main text and the sub-text of our ministries: "Isn't Christ great?"
If we do not purposefully seek to keep Christ in the center of our ministry, something else will be there- small groups, evangelism, target areas, you name it.
In fact, I think the number one question every CD(campus director) should ask himself, all the time, every day, is "what is the sub-text of my ministry? Are people walking away thinking "Isn't Christ great!"
10 Questions for Expository Preachers

Working the waiver wire is pivotal to succeeding in fantasy basketball. With so many games, injuries and endless shifts in rotations throughout the marathon campaign, we'll need to source stats from free agency to maximize imaginary rosters.
A willingness to entertain competition for the last few spots on your fantasy hoops roster can prove rewarding. When curating this fluid collective of statistical contributors, it helps to consider your end-of-bench players in direct competition with the talent floating in free agency.
The goal of this weekly series is to identify players available in at least half of ESPN leagues at each position. Some nominations are specialists capable of helping in one or two categories, while others deliver more diverse and important statistical offerings. In the breakdowns below, I've ordered players at each position with the priority of acquisition in mind, rather than roster percentage in ESPN leagues.
Point guard
Goran Dragic, Miami Heat (rostered in 49.8% of ESPN leagues): This smooth Slovenian combo guard has been quietly brilliant in a revival campaign for Miami thus far; he's getting to the line and scoring at the rim at rates close to his prime in Phoenix, all while enjoying awesome efficiency as a shooter and effectiveness as a distributor for a thriving Heat team.
Devonte' Graham, Charlotte Hornets (44.2%): Found at 10th in the league in dimes per game thanks to ranking eleventh in the league with 13 potential assists per game -- defined by the league's player tracking data as any pass to a teammate who shoots within one dribble of receiving the ball -- Graham's ascent to deft distributor and consistent playmaker for the Hornets demands much more attention from fantasy managers.
Tomas Satoransky, Chicago Bulls (11.5%): A slow start to the season saw Satoransky struggle to score much despite starting and playing plenty of minutes with Chicago, yet a recent offensive surge saw the gifted combo guard average 13.3 PPG, 6.8 APG, 4.5 RPG and 1.8 SPG during the past four games. To accurately value his contributions, you'll need to look past modest scoring results with Sato and instead focus on his consistently strong steal and assist production.
Shooting guard
Luke Kennard, Detroit Pistons (30.9%): A top-50 fantasy contributor so far, thanks to being one of just 10 players to average at least 18 PPG, 4.3 APG, and 2.8 3PG this season, Kennard is arguably the most positive story from Motown this season, save for Andre Drummond's Dennis Rodman-like rebounding rate.
Marcus Smart, Boston Celtics (17.8%): With one of the league's better steal rates and some nice creation equity for Boston -- he's averaging 8.5 potential assists per game to rank second on the team behind Kemba Walker's 8.9 -- Smart is a sneaky-good fantasy contributor often overlooked due to his soft scoring numbers.
Bryn Forbes, San Antonio Spurs (9.1%): A shooting specialist (2.7 3PG) with a respectable steady diet of minutes and shots, Forbes is most helpful in roto or categories formats.
Bruce Brown, Detroit Pistons (1.6%): With great defensive rates and 11 combined assists and rebounds per outing, thanks to playing 36 MPG during this past week, Brown has been a strong streaming option on a depleted Detroit roster.
Small forward
OG Anunoby, Toronto Raptors (41.2%): Found at 25th on our Player Rater model -- a standard deviation index that values statistical diversity -- Anunoby is becoming a stocks king in a starting role with the Raptors. Stocks are, after all, basketball jargon for steals plus blocks. Anunoby is averaging 1.4 SPG and 1.6 BPG for a combined three stocks to go with an awesome spike in scoring and shooting success with his newfound busy role on both sides with Toronto.
Danuel House Jr., Houston Rockets (12.2%): Surprisingly found at 36th on the Player Rater despite being somewhat ignored by the fantasy market, House ranks second in the entire league with 2.6 3-pointers made per game on catch-and-shoot attempts. As a floor-spacer on a team with two usage juggernauts in Russell Westbrook and James Harden, House is destined to continue to see valuable shots from the corners and open spots around the arc. It's not just shooting that makes House intriguing, as he's been comparatively awesome with 1.2 SPG and 1.1 BPG this season. Rush to add this awesome two-way contributor in all formats.
Power forward
Marcus Morris Sr., New York Knicks (37.7%): Found at 26th on the Player Rater, thanks to 24% leaps in both minutes and shots per game since last season, Morris is thriving in a busy role with the Knicks. Even as his hot hand from 3-point range is due for some regression, Morris is averaging an awesome 2.1 stocks while doubling his free throw volume from last season.
Jabari Parker, Atlanta Hawks (24.8%): Awesome offensive opportunity rates such as 14.3 shots per game in nearly 30 MPG the past four outings have fueled 21.3 PPG for the former Duke star. With John Collins sidelined until January with a suspension, Parker should enjoy a rewarding blend of production.
PJ Washington, Charlotte Hornets (34.3%): With four blocks one night and four steals a few games later, Washington is flashing impressive defensive rates along with healthy shooting and scoring results.
Aron Baynes, Phoenix Suns (48.8%): Deandre Ayton doesn't return from suspension until just before Christmas, which leaves Baynes plenty of time to continue his awesome production as the Suns' starting pivot. In this role, Baynes has scored in all eight of his starts while slashing for 17.6 PPG, 6.1 RPG, 3.6 APG, 2.1 3PG, and 1.4 stocks during this successful sample. It's quite possible Baynes loses nearly all of his fantasy value once Ayton is back as the featured frontcourt option, but he's a must-roster option until that happens.
Cody Zeller, Charlotte Hornets (43.0%): Zeller tallied a season-high 24 points in South Philly in a loss to the Sixers this past Sunday evening. You shouldn't expect many big scoring nights from Zeller, but he's ranked 18th in the league with 15.6 rebounding chances per game (being within 3.5 feet of an available rebound) as one of the rare widely available double-double machines.
Brandon Clarke, Memphis Grizzlies (38.9%): A defensive savant already seeing meaningful minutes early in his career with Memphis, Clarke is the rare rookie who could prove consistently valuable this season.
Kelly Olynyk, Miami Heat (10.4%): There seems to be an explicit agenda to get Olynyk more looks from beyond the arc; he's lofted 4.7 3-pointers per game with impressive efficiency (42.9%) during the past four games, compared to sinking just one 3-pointer during his previous four appearances. For those struggling at center in deeper leagues, Olynyk provides just enough defensive pop (1.6 stocks per game) and shooting prowess (1.3 3PG) to merit attention while he's hot from the floor.

Just Tell Them the Truth, Dubya
The exposure of the Bush White House's dirty trick of outing a CIA operative, literally putting lives at risk, must have the former President and CIA Director Bush in a state of shock. I imagine the dialogue between father and son and see in my mind's eye a scene from the movie Quiz Show.
The film is a morality play based on the game-show scandals of the 1950s. Twenty-One, a popular TV quiz show, was rigged to attract higher ratings and higher-paying sponsorships. Ralph Fiennes plays the show's most popular contestant, Charles Van Doren. Van Doren is equal parts charm, good-looks, and erudition. He is an assistant professor at Columbia University and was reared in an intellectual family. Despite his pedigree, he is seduced by money, fame, and the show's producers into cheating his way to victory over a record number of weeks. As the web of lies and deceit closes in on Van Doren, he must decide between protecting himself by denying his involvement or admitting his personal weakness and facing the consequences. Torn by guilt, Van Doren reveals himself to his father, played by the actor Paul Scofield. The father's pride in his son leads him to initially misread his son's painful private confession. "Just tell the truth, Charlie, so you can get back to your teaching, that's all that really matters," the older Van Doren tells his son, believing that the other contestants had faked erudition they did not possess while his son won on merit. The truth slowly washes over the father and his face bears the pain and humiliation of his son. Despite the pain the father stands by his son who goes on to publicly admit he "flew too high on borrowed wings."
I imagine George W. Bush telling his father the truth about what he and his administration did to out a CIA agent in an act of retribution against her husband. I imagine the father's pain. I imagine the son finally telling the American people the truth with his father by his side: "I flew too high on borrowed wings."
Will Bush tell the truth or will he deny involvement?

◼ Paul George took charge against the Utah Jazz and delivered a fantastic performance to give the Oklahoma franchise the win.
Paul George with 36 pts and a personal record from outside the perimeter showed why the seed in which they finished this season is just a number. The OKC big 3 shouldn't be called that because without Adams this team would not be in the playoffs. He is a monster and that's a compliment, he averages 5 offensive rebound per game. He's the backbone of this team and OKC fans should have more appreciation for his amazing efforts.
Westbrook scored 29 pts and Carmelo had only 15 but that was enough for them to charge over a Utah Jazz that's trying to find their groove. Experience is a big part of the playoffs and in that sense the OKC squad has a major advantage playing against a team that relies on a rookie. We hope to see more from this matchup and that we get a lot of games (hopefully 7) because next up are the Rockets (probably) and that may be the end of the road for either of them.

This event is not about a bike ride
The bicycles are the vehicles we use to make our journey and carry our message along. They provide a visible means to spread our message about the plight of missing and exploited children, and the importance of child safety education. Our bicycles help us to communicate with those whom we ride by and to educate those that we visit.
As a paced ride, it also raises awareness of the plight of missing & exploited children. More than 2,000 children are reported missing in the United States each day*, some in our own community. For most families, this is only a brief scare as the child turns up in a few minutes or hours. But for some, the nightmare of a missing child becomes a grim reality. NCMEC's mission is to help recover missing children, protect all children from sexual exploitation, and assist in the prevention of these crimes.
All participating Riders make a vow to raise a minimum of $250 and to support the mission and goals of The Ride and NCMEC-TX.
The Texas Regional Office provides educational programs free of charge in our local schools to teach our children how to be safe in the community as well as online. They also help create and distribute posters of missing children locally, nationally as well into Mexico and Canada.

They are "fresh, crispy and chewy" one reviewer said describing delicious bagels. There are so many great bagel shops across Fairfield County. Many of them also have expansive menus with rave reviews.
Here are five favorite bagel shops in Fairfield County:
Upper Crust Bagel Company, 197 Sound Beach Ave., Old Greenwich: Marissa M. of Stamford wrote in a yelp review, "Favorite bagel place in the area! They make the freshest, and closest to NY tasting (being in CT), quality bagels! I like to visit on the weekends for a fresh bagel with tuna salad, but you can't go wrong with anything on their menu."
Joseph's Bagel & Grill, 1242 Stratfield Rd., Fairfield: "Best bacon egg and cheese around!! Love this place, it's always a great treat for me. The bagels are big and fluffy. The staff is very nice. They only take cash, but they have an ATM inside," wrote Elizabeth T. of Bridgeport in a yelp post.
Bagel King of Bridgeport, 3550 Main St, Bridgeport: " Yum yum yum!!! Delicious bagels and sandwiches! Awesome coffee and iced beverages, and super friendly staff!," wrote Nancy Z. of Fairfield County on yelp. The drive through is a HUGE plus as well!
Village Bagels, 415 Westport Ave., Norwalk: " Truly the best and perhaps only place to get great bagels in Fairfield County CT! They are fresh, crispy and chewy and have an amazing selection of flavors. In addition to bagels and bagel sandwiches, Village offers a great salad bar and other deli products and the best bargain coffee in town," wrote Jody B. of Westport on yelp.
Steve's Bagels and Cafe, 463 Main St., Ridgefield: " Very impressed with this small, bustling spot! Bagels are perfectly textured (no mean feat), good variety of schmears, quick, friendly service, fair prices, and the best chocolate chip cookie I've had in a long time. Coffee's good, too," said yelp poster, Eliza F. of South Salem, N.Y.

With respect to House Officer work schedules and release time, the Employer is responsible for remaining in substantial compliance with Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) requirements.
Clinical and educational work hours are defined as all clinical and educational activities related to the residency/fellowship program; i.e., patient care (both inpatient and outpatient), administrative duties relative to patient care, the provision for transfer of patient care, time spent in-house during call activities, and scheduled activities such as conferences. Clinical work done from home, such as charting in the EMR and patient-related phone calls must count towards the clinical and educational work hour limit. Clinical and education work hours do not include reading, study, or preparation time spent away from the duty site. On-call responsibilities outside of the hospital ("home call") are not included in the clinical and educational work hour calculations except for time spent in active patient care responsibilities. Time spent on the hospital premises after arriving from "home call" are also included in the clinical and educational hour calculations.
Clinical and educational work hours must be limited to eighty (80) hours per week, averaged over a four (4)-week period, inclusive of all in-house call activities and designated off-premises activities. Residents must be provided with one (1) day in seven (7) free from all educational and clinical responsibilities, averaged over a four (4)-week period, inclusive of call. For purposes of this Article, one "day" or "release time" is defined as one (1) continuous twenty-four (24)-hour period, free from all clinical, educational, and administrative duties. Although the one (1) day free in seven (7) is averaged over a four-week period, the normal expectation and intent is that a House Officer would not work more than two (2)-weeks without a day off.
It is a responsibility of the House Officer to accurately report clinical and educational work hours to their Program Director by logging them in MedHub within the specified time frame and reporting any frequent or unusual violations directly to the Program Director. The Program Director, representing the Employer, is responsible for monitoring clinical and educational work hours for compliance with the above standard. In the event that a House Officer does not obtain release time in accordance with the standards set forth in paragraph 61, an alternative day off will be scheduled within the four (4)-week period. If alternative day(s) off cannot be scheduled then the House Officer will receive additional compensation equivalent to 1/365th of his/her annual base salary, for each day of release time that is not provided. Also, the Employer must immediately discontinue any work schedule practices that are not in compliance with these standards.
If a House Officer's schedule is inconsistent with the above, the House Officer or the House Officers Association may request the work schedule to be reviewed by the Program Director. If work schedule concerns are not resolved to the satisfaction of the House Officer, the House Officer or the House Officers Association may appeal any work schedule concerns to the Graduate Medical Education Committee, or their designee. In such a situation, the decision of the Graduate Medical Education Committee will be final. It is further agreed that there shall be no retaliation, in any form, towards any House Officer as result of requesting review of his/her work schedule.
It is further understood that days off taken as vacation days will not be counted as release time as defined in paragraph 61. For example, if a Resident works the first two (2) weeks in a month, and takes the latter two (2) weeks as vacation, the Resident shall still be entitled to two release days for the first two (2) weeks in that month.
If, during the term of this collective bargaining agreement, there is a change in the clinical and educational work hour standards specified by ACGME requirements, then those regulatory standards will take precedence over this language, and the parties will abide by any new standards promulgated by the ACGME. However, in no case will clinical and educational work hours exceed the limits set forth in paragraph 61. Prior to implementation of any change of practice due to a change in ACGME standards, the Employer and the House Officers Association will meet to review the revised standards, and discuss implementation plans.

National Signing Day is two weeks away, and several college football coaches from the Power Five conferences will be eagerly anticipating which hat the likes of Caleb Kelly, Mique Juarez and Jack Jones will place over their head.
The three high school football stars are among the most wanted recruits in the land; with a combined 68 reported scholarship offers between them plus all three earning a 5-star ranking on various recruiting websites.
Which schools face the most legitimate chance of landing one of these Golden State studs? Time to weigh in.
Caleb Kelly
The Clovis West High School linebacker/tight end has been a wanted player on the recruiting trail since his sophomore year – with the likes of Oklahoma, USC and Washington emerging as the first schools to make a run at him.
Now, the 6-foot-3, 215-pound Kelly – who holds a reported 28 scholarship offers – has Oklahoma, Norte Dame and Oregon on his final short list and plans to make his final decision on National Signing Day. Kelly took official visits to all three campuses and was left impressed by the surroundings and overall visit. One of the ultimate deciding factors for Kelly? Going to a place where he has a strong chance to start as a true freshman.
The pick: Oklahoma
The Sooners were the first to offer Kelly and have stayed on him since. There's two other scenarios that help OU: Kelly already has a mutual connection with current Sooners Michiah Quick and Hatari Byrd through their club 7-on-7 team in Fresno plus Oklahoma has to replace top pass rushing linebacker Eric Striker, who is graduating.
Mique Juarez
The former USC commit is down to UCLA, Ole Miss and Alabama.
He's set to take his official visit to Tuscaloosa this weekend, writes Bleacher Report's Damon Sayles. The 6-foot-1, 230-pound Juarez may be a game changing defender and possible defensive cornerstone for a four-year university, but he tells Sayles that he's not just looking at playing time or getting on the field.
"To be honest, I'm not really looking for a team that always wants to win," Juarez told Sayles on Jan. 18. "I'm looking for a place with the type of character that always wants to improve on and off the field—not just football. School and education is important, too.
"I'm trying to be coached in the proper way, but I'm also looking out for my future with my family," he added. "…If football doesn't work out, I'll have a good education out of it."
Juarez, who starred at North Torrance High School in Los Angeles County, did his most damage at outside linebacker. But his current physique says he's built to move inside.
The pick: Alabama
The Crimson Tide currently has just one outside linebacker commit in the '16 class. They're also losing starters Reggie Ragland and Denzel Devall to graduation. Irrespective of where he lines up, Juarez can give the national champions another big, versatile linebacker that Nick Saban loves to employ.
Jack Jones
Like Juarez, Jones has Alabama on his short list – a list that includes USC, UCLA, Oklahoma and Texas A&M.
The versatile 5-foot-11, 175 pound Jones, who shined at cornerback during the U.S. Army All-American Bowl on Jan. 9, has already visited Alabama and told scout.com's Greg Biggins on Jan. 19 that he can definitely see himself playing for the Tide.
The school that lands the Long Beach Poly star could get another Adoree Jackson. Jones has doubled as a big play wide receiver and aggressive shut down corner, something that Jackson has done for USC.
The pick: UCLA
Cornerback might be more in Jones' future, especially after his impressive performance in the Alamodome recently. Plus, the Bruins surrendered too many yards and points on defense last season. Jones can give UCLA an instant upgrade in the secondary. But, with his versatility, Jones can also be another Myles Jack for Jim Mora – a player who goes both ways.

CELTIC FC Foundation are delighted to introduce a brand new Christmas Appeal fundraising initiative – Light up the Clover – which will take place on Wednesday, December 13 at Celtic Park in the lead-up to Celtic's SPFL encounter with Hamilton Academical.
Supporters will have the opportunity to purchase a small LED candle – priced at £2 each – and place it around the Christmas tree on the Celtic Way's Clover area, in memory of a loved one.
The first candle placed on the Clover will be done so in honour of Brother Walfrid.
Our volunteers will be located on the Celtic Way and also at other key entry points around the ground so please look out for them on your way to Paradise.
It's sure to be a beautiful and magical spectacle as we aim to 'Light up the Clover'. All funds raised will support our 2017 Christmas Appeal.
We want to help around 300 local families facing poverty, to provide a meal on the table and gifts for the kids. We want to bring the magic of Christmas to those homes. We are also looking to help vulnerable local pensioners to ease the financial burden at a challenging time of year plus a number of other local charities who support those experiencing homelessness or other disadvantage.
Nine charity partners have been confirmed so far, including The Wayside Club, Loaves and Fishes, The Invisibles, Salvation Army Parkhead, Glasgow City Mission, the Scottish Refugee Council, The Elpis Centre and two London-based beneficiaries - St. Anne's Primary School in Whitechapel, and the Cardinal Hume Centre.
So please follow in the footsteps of Brother Walfrid and help us Share the Spirit of Celtic this Christmas to help the most vulnerable in our community.
You can also get behind the Appeal in the following ways:
Thank you for your wonderful support.

This past weekend I went to New Orleans with a couple of my line sisters and one of the places we went to was the New Orleans Historic Voodoo Museum. One of the questions that one of my line sisters asked was if we could do Voodoo would we. Everyone said no, except for me. I guess I am just weird and am intrigued by things like this. How Voodoo works, where it started, etc. Below are a couple of pictures from the museum.
Voodoo Dolls
The Main Altar – frequently used in rituals and changed around to invoke and propitiate different spirits.
I do not remember the name of this piece, however it did frighten me quite a bit because it looked as if the guy in the front with the pearls was looking directly at me.
This was actually a pretty cool museum. It was shorter and smaller than what I thought it was going to be but it was cool. After the museum, we thought about going to get a Tarot Card reading, but once we got to a place, we all chicken'd out. LOL

So John McCain's latest power of story is that Teddy Roosevelt is his ACTUAL Republican soulmate, not the pitbull moose in his hand nor two Bushes in the Byrd.
Did John McCain's Rove-Cheney handlers and rich corporate and foreign power lobbyists, vet the Bull Moose any better than the Pit Bull? The kids and I are having all sorts of fun playing with the power of story in Teddy Roosevelt's wikipedia entry.
We see similarities between John Sidney McCain and TR, sure — TR left his daughter to be raised by others while he was off adventuring, he loved to fight even within his own party, his views on race were so belligerent and extreme that President NIXON had to clean up after him (see below); and he promised if elected to limit his terms voluntarily–
Roosevelt argued the frontier conditions created a new race: the American people that replaced the "scattered savage tribes, whose life was but a few degrees less meaningless, squalid, and ferocious than that of the wild beasts with whom they held joint ownership." He believed, "the conquest and settlement by the whites of the Indian lands was necessary to the greatness of the race and to the well-being of civilized mankind."
. . .In The Winning of the West (1889–1896), Roosevelt's frontier thesis stressed a racial struggle between "civilization" (white, especially Germanic peoples) and supposed savagery (of people of color, i.e., Native American Indians). Excerpts:
1. "The settler and pioneer have at bottom had justice on their side; this great continent could not have been kept as nothing but a game preserve for squalid savages."
2. "The most ultimately righteous of all wars is a war with savages."
3. "American and Indian, Boer and Zulu, Cossack and Tartar, New Zealander and Maori, — in each case the victor, horrible though many of his deeds are, has laid deep the foundations for the future greatness of a mighty people."
4. "..it is of incalculable importance that America, Australia, and Siberia should pass out of the hands of their red, black, and yellow aboriginal owners, and become the heritage of the dominant world races."
5. "The world would have halted had it not been for the Teutonic conquests in alien lands; but the victories of Moslem over Christian have always proved a curse in the end. Nothing but sheer evil has come from the victories of Turk and Tartar."
In Brownsville, Texas, racial tensions were high between white townsfolk and black infantrymen stationed at Fort Brown. Two white townspeople were murdered and the townsfolk blamed the infantrymen. Roosevelt immediately dishonorably discharged all soldiers in the three all black companies (that fought alongside Roosevelt in the Spanish American War) due to their "conspiracy of silence." Further investigations in the 1970s found they were not involved and they were pardoned by President Nixon.[citation needed]
We also found a few outright disqualifications for this um, tale wagging the dog.
Theodore Roosevelt was a magna cum laude Harvard man who then went to a top law school (though politics beckoned before he finished.)
Sounds more like Obama than McCain . . .but this was our favorite:
Teddy was the YOUNGEST man ever to become president, not the OLDEST.

Residents say they won't be 'held to ransom' by fresh Ballymahon building plans
Claims new planning submission will make 'death trap' of busy south Longford road
Residents of Dun Áras, Ballymulvey Road say they are "extremely dismayed" by a fresh planning application aimed at constructing over 30 new houses at the estate.
The construction of 32 new houses in the Ballymahon estate of Dúnaras will make a "death trap" of the Ballymulvey Road.
Those are fears expressed by the current residents of Dún Aras, who are "extremely dismayed" by a fresh planning application submitted by Cunningham Design & Planning Ltd this week.
On June 29, An Bord Pleanála denied local engineer Mark Cunningham planning permission for a similar development in the same estate following a year-long campaign and a number of appeals and objections by Ballymahon residents.
ALSO READ: Breaking: Ballymahon residents triumph in Dun Áras battle
This latest planning application, filed by a month-old company, Beacon Assets Ltd, proposes the development of 32 new homes - a reduction from the 39 dwellings that were proposed last year.
"None of the conditions, which were of concern to the Bord at the time have been dealt with or changed at all," said the Dúnaras Residents' Association in a statement to this newspaper on Tuesday.
In making a decision in June, An Bord Pleanála stated that the proposed development "would be premature pending the provision of a footpath along the Ballymulvey Road between the subject site and Main Street, Ballymahon".
The Residents' Association also expressed concern with regard to a number of new amenities planned by Longford County Council for the Newcastle Forest and River Inny catchment.
"It is essental that the safe use of the Ballymulvey road for pedestrians, cyclists, equestrians and all traffic is guaranteed to link these amenities to the community in Ballymahon," they said.
"A development of this size will make a death trap of our local road and prevent anyone from safely enjoying the route."
The Residents' Association is currently rallying for another appeal campaign against the development.
"We can only urge the community to please remain aware of the extremely negative connotations a development of this size in this location will have for the whole community.
"We would also like to urge Longford County Council to continue to complete the process of taking our estate in charge so the residents can finally have guarantee of provision of services and no longer be held to ransom by developers."
Attempts made by this newspaper to contact Mark Cunningham were unsuccessful at the time of print.

File photo: Arun Jaitley. Photograph:( AFP )
Jaitley said the decision of the Congress, who suffered successive routs in elections, will further alienate the party from the countrymen.
Former Union Minister Arun Jaitley on Tuesday said Congress would pay heavily for opposing measures to end special status to Jammu and Kashmir, saying the leadership of the party, which he referred to as "headless chicken", was determined to succeed in its race to the bottom.
Jaitley said the decision of the Congress, who suffered successive routs in elections, will further alienate the party from the countrymen.
"Headless chicken is further consolidating its alienation from the people of India. New India has changed. Only Congress does not realise this. The Congress leadership is determined to succeed in its race to the bottom," Jaitley wrote in a blog, calling the grand old party a "creator of Kashmir issue".
He also took a swipe at the Opposition for creating a ruckus over the scrapping of the special status of the state, saying that they made a "national integrity issue" into one on secularism.
Jaitley said Mehbooba Mufti's PDP and National Conference spoke the language of separatists in the Valley.
"Their statements in New Delhi at times are re-assuring. But in Srinagar, they speak a different language. Their stand is influenced by the separatist environment," he said.
He also said India's first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru had erred in its experiment to hand over special powers to the state, maintaining that successive government's' attempts to resolve the Kashmir issue only worsened the situation.
"The historic blunders of special status had cost the country politically and financially. Today, when history is being re-written, it proves that Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee`s vision on Kashmir was the correct one and Panditji`s dream solution has proved to be a failure."
"In the last seven decades, attempts to resolve the issue proved a disaster, PM Modi decided to follow an alternative approach. The present decision makes it clear that just as the rule of law prevails in other parts of the country, it will equally prevail in the Kashmir valley," he wrote.
He also said that the special status only led to rising terrorism and deteriorating situation in the Valley, giving Pakistan chances to exploit the situations. "It created a separatist psyche," he said.
"By 1989-90, the situation of J and K had gone out of control and separatism with terrorism picked up. Kashmiri pundits, an essential part of Kashmiriat, suffered such atrocities which only the Nazis had inflicted in the past. The ethnic cleansing took place and they had to move out." he wrote.
lauded the Narendra Modi government for adopting an alternative, courageous path on the issue. "The decision to reverse the situation created by Panditji needed clarity, vision and determination. It also needed political courage. The Prime Minister has created history through his absolute clarity and determination," the former finance minister said.
Jaitley concluded that "total integration" of the state was the only way ahead to resolve the issue in the border state and said the move will pave way for the creation of lakhs of jobs and prosperity.
"The next logical step obviously is the total integration of the State. India`s most beautiful State has not had investments from even the hotel chains. Consequently, there are no new jobs, no revenue for the State. These constitutional provisions are not cast in stone. They had to be removed/ diluted through the due process of law that is done now," he said.
Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday announced to abrogate Article 35A which gave special rights to residents of Jammu and Kashmir over land and diluted Article 370. He also announced to convert the state into two union territories - Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh
