New York Times-bestselling author Stephen Singular has teamed with his wife Joyce and their forensic reporting has produced the most comprehensive look at the Aurora shooting yet, while drawing upon the one group left out of the discussion of violence in America: the twenty-somethings themselves. The Spiral Notebook is filled with the voices of the Millennials, a group dogged by big pharma, anti-depressants, and ADHD drugs, by a doomsday/apocalyptic mentality present since birth, and by an entertainment industry that has turned violence into parlor games.
Provocative and eye opening, The Spiral Notebook is an examination of the dynamics driving the violence committed by their peers.
A pre-publication review of the book by Booklist, with a star, said:
Husband-and-wife investigative reporters and veterans of the crime beat, the Singulars were compelled to look at violence from their perspective as parents when James Holmes, a young man dressed as a commando, killed 12 people and injured 58 others in a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado, in 2012. The Singulars have a son about Holmes' age who, unlike them, was not so surprised by the shooter's actions. The Singulars offer a harrowing look at the crime and the courtroom drama. They explore the complex legal battles, particularly over the issue of Holmes' sanity and a spiral notebook that might hold the key to determining his state of mind. Was the notebook, mailed to his psychiatrist, protected by doctor-patient confidentiality, or, having been found in the course of the investigation before the doctor received it, was it game for use by the prosecution? They address the broader debate about whether publicizing Holmes' diary or the videotapes made by the Columbine shooters glorifies the killers or offers valuable insights into their behavior. Interspersed throughout are comments from a cross section of young adults about the cultural forces, from drugs to video games to social media, that may have contributed to Holmes' alienation and violent actions. This is a compelling look at gun control, mental-health treatment, and the underlying social issues that contribute to rising violence, especially that committed by young men, in our nation.
— Vanessa Bush
No one could ever forget the horrific scene that unfolded in an Aurora, Colorado movie theatre in July, 2012. A gunman opened fire on a movie theatre, killing twelve people and wounding many others. In this book, husband and wife Stephen and Joyce Singular attempt to reckon with the limited and less-than-explanatory nature of the information available about James Holmes. The Singulars also take it one step further: They examine the pervasiveness of mass violence in American youth culture, and attempt to make sense of a troubling topic. This is a dark book, but a sincere and smart take on a serious subject.
On 5/12, the couple were interviewed for "The Spiral Notebook: The Aurora Theater Shooter And The Epidemic of Mass Violence Committed by American Youth" via Skype by Investigative Journalist, Diane Dimond for "Talk Center America" in NYC.
On 5/13, Stephen was interviewed by Colorado Public Radio about the The Spiral Notebook and the ongoing trial. The following evening the couple spoke on these subjects at the Denver Press Club.
On June 14, Stephen and Joyce Singular received the following review for their new book, The Spiral Notebook: The Aurora Theater Shooter And The Epidemic Of Mass Violence Committed By American Youth, in The Sunday Denver Post's Arts and Entertainment section. See link below:
An April 2015 pre-publication review of the book by Kirkus, with a star, said:
"An investigation into the plague of violence engulfing a generation of American youth. When Stephen Singular (The Wichita Divide: The Murder of Dr. George Tiller and the Battle over Abortion, 2011, etc.) and his wife, Joyce, set out to write a book about James Holmes, who in 2012, walked into an Aurora, Colorado, movie theater where he killed 12 people and wounded another 58, they had no idea how little information about the case would be available to them. But they used the lack of accessible material as a starting point, with Aurora as the ever present backdrop rather than the sole subject. The spiral notebook of the title, a diary kept by Holmes, was presumed to hold the reasons behind the attack, but a court order kept it sealed from the public. With Holmes' motives obscured, the Singulars went in search of answers by exploring the nationwide epidemic of mass shootings. They spent time talking to their own 20-something son before embarking on a quest to engage with millennials in conversations about the tragic commonality of school shootings and other violent acts. The result is a disturbing yet fascinating treatise on the impacts of growing up in a world that previous generations would barely recognize. While violent video games get their due, the authors also pinpoint widely prescribed drugs, the pressures of social media, a world at war, and more. What makes this book special is that for every theory they present, the Singulars reference not only experts in psychology, sociology, crime, and other fields, but also 20-somethings, whose opinions seem at once benign in their simplicity and also imbued with the ability to shatter the worlds of their peers. These acts may never be fully understood, but this work certainly helps the process along. Tragic, gripping, and authentic, this book deserves a wide audience."
From the "Brooklyn Rail," July 13, 2015:
Since the 1960s, the frequency of mass shootings in the United States has increased by over 10,000 percent.
Among the shooters, there are commonalities—social isolation, feelings of persecution, psychotropic drug use, obsessive playing of violent video games (like Call of Duty or World of Warcraft), etc.—that experts will, in every aftermath, desperately try to collate and quantify with the hope of achieving some understanding of a phenomenon that has become appallingly familiar in our culture.
But however much the data on shooters are fed into algorithms and weighed against behavioral profiles and generally subjected to all manner of scientific methodology, the concerned citizen, expert or layman, will quickly know the limit of such inquiry. Because up until the moment a young misfit decides to pull the trigger, one can empathize with social isolation, or feelings of persecution, or the vicissitudes of being on mood stabilizers, or the adrenaline rush of graphic video game violence. Up until that moment, one must concede that just because a person fits the profile, and maybe even keeps a goodly stash of firearms in the house, that person is not necessarily on the brink of slaughtering his or her peers in a hail of gunfire. The fact is, those who fit the profile and never commit a crime far outnumber those who do.
Yet parsing the data feels like a moral duty, fruitless as it may ultimately be. We would be remiss as a culture if we didn't make a systemized attempt to pursue what Stephen and Joyce Singular, in their book The Spiral Notebook: The Aurora Theater Shooter and the Epidemic of Mass Violence Committed by American Youth, would call a "little push": the element—elusive, but suggestive as dark matter—that turns a young person from troubled to murderous.
The focus of The Spiral Notebook is James Holmes, who in July 2012 dyed his hair Joker-orange, decked himself in military grade combat gear, and murdered a dozen people at a midnight showing of the filmThe Dark Knight in Aurora, Colorado. The Singulars are able and enthusiastic reporters, providing detailed depictions of the event, the lead-up to it, the emergency response, and then, to their frustration, a judicial process assiduously withheld from the prying eyes of the media.
The titular spiral notebook refers to the volume holding Holmes's musings before he committed his act, what one might call his manifesto. To the Singulars, it represents both a psychological "Rosetta Stone" of insight into why he did what he did, and also a symbol of a broken judicial system that would keep such a document from a public desperate for insight. The latter gives them ample exercise. Holmes is certainly guilty of the crime, so his defense team's objective is to save him from the death penalty. Their strategy is to repeatedly delay the trial date, which they do successfully, while devising an insanity defense. The insanity plea should have been a boon to the media because it would nullify the doctor-patient confidentiality laws that required the notebook's suppression (since Holmes sent it to his psychiatrist hours before his rampage).
But while the new plea made the notebook admissible in court, the judge, much railed-against for the secrecy he fostered, continued to withhold it from public view. Because of this, the Singulars come to regard Holmes's notebook as some untouched key, a look into the psyche of a mass shooter heretofore unseen.
Would the pages reveal what happened to the defendant after he moved to Aurora? And what had changed between the winter of 2012 […] and the late spring and early summer of that year? Would the notebook […] document his slide into insanity or show the intricate designs of a premeditated killer? […] Could one be fully functional in society and insane at the same time? […] Would the notebook finally provide some answers?
The exasperating truth is that other works exist in this genre, but they do little to advance our understanding of the transition from disaffected youth to mass killer. The manifesto of Isla Vista shooter Elliott Rodger is 144 numbingly repetitive pages in which Rodger recounts his failures to entice women to sleep with him until deciding they are fundamentally evil and must be punished with death. If one didn't wince at the prospect of reading the 1500-page manifesto of Anders Behring Breivik, the Norwegian who methodically killed 69 people at a Workers' Youth League summer camp, one may conclude, as Karl Ove Knausgaard did in a recent New Yorker piece, "Breivik's childhood explains nothing, his character explains nothing, his political ideas explain nothing." It would seem that even if a killer says why he killed, most of us still wouldn't understand it.
Without access to the notebook, the Singulars turn to the shooters' peers, and here they find their most useful insights. Woven throughout The Spiral Notebook are quotations from members of the "American youth" in question, including the Singulars' son, whose "formative years in Denver were bookended by two mass tragedies," Columbine and Aurora. After Aurora, the Singulars knew they had a story they wanted to pursue. The court's gag orders proved an impediment to their forensic analysis, but the seed of a newer, and perhaps more useful, angle had sprouted in their own home. Asking their son Eric for his thoughts on the shooting, they encountered disturbing reticence: "You don't understand how I grew up," he told them. "You just don't get it, […] No offense, but you're too old."
Does the failure to understand mass murder committed by young men equate to a failure to understand the culture around them? One veteran journalist quoted by the Singulars exclaims, "If I hear one more teenager say that he or she understands why those two kids did what they did at Columbine, […] I'm going to scream." Throughout these interviews, an assumed incomprehensibility entered a new light: are mass shooters somehow relatable to their Millenial peers? Says one twenty-one-year-old man, "Sometimes I just want to blow. The only thing that stops me is my own sense of self-control. Take that away, and I just don't know what would happen." The other interviewees recount overlapping narratives of endemic drug use, school bullying, the pressures of a consumerist society, and obsessive playing of violent video games. Through their collective words, the pieces of a particular world come together, a world that is inhabited by both the victims and the perpetrators. Theirs is a common despair. Regardless of public access to Holmes's spiral notebook, the manifesto exists in the minds of all young people immersed in a violent, drugged up, materialistic world. And they are happy to tell us about it.
Now, after countless delays, James Holmes's capital trial is under way, and the spiral notebook has been made available to the media. The salient implication is a legal one: it seems Holmes was perfectly able to distinguish right from wrong. But the unfortunate message for the Singulars, and for the rest of us pining for an answer from the mind of a mass killer, echoes Knausgaard's conclusion about Breivik, and comes from Holmes's own pen (via recent CNN coverage of the trial): "The message is there is no message." We look, then, to the masses, where murder is still an aberration, but despair is not.
From the Washington Book Review, July 14, 2015:
In July 2012, James Holmes unleashed the largest mass shooting in American history inside of a Century movie theater in Aurora, Colorado, during the midnight screening of 'The Dark Knight Rises.' It left twelve dead and seventy others wounded. In the first fourteen school days of 2014, there were seven school shootings as compared to twenty-eight school shootings in all of 2013. In The Spiral Notebook, Stephen Singular and Joyce Singular discuss the cultural forces and reasons behind the escalating violence caused by American youth. One of the main theses of The Spiral Notebook is that "an individual, like a nation, can gradually slip into a state of madness with hardly anyone noticing. A person working inside an environment of very intelligent, well-educated, and seemingly observant people can evolve into a killing machine – with nobody paying attention or doing anything to stop him." The authors say that most people try "to look away and not say anything that might cause a disruption. Better to keep still and pretend that everything would turn out fine."
The Singulars have been writing on violence by the American youth for a number of years. They have also been interviewing young people on the subject. They say the twenty-something generation told them that their parents didn't know or understand much about their life experience. They write, that "…they had come of age when future seemed quite limited, if not choked off. Climate change, economic collapse, Y2K, global terrorism, the end of the world in December 2012 – there is always another apocalypse just around the corner. If there weren't enough threats, the movies industry kept churning out one terrifying or dystopian vision of tomorrow after another. They were filled with superheroes who wielded power by killing as many others as they could."
In the wake of the Aurora shooting, the Singulars held discussions with large numbers of young people to understand their problems and uncover the roots of the escalating violence. The theme in these discussions was that this generation was ready for fundamental changes – structural, social, and political change. Something new needs to come, a new way of interacting and cooperating both within our institutions and on a personal level. They write that the cultural wars and public demonizing are only broken tools. Political division and hatred have created more division and hatred. They write, "Bullying, whether by the government or the media or the kid next door, is toxic and creates consequences that we're only beginning to glimpse. Being 'right' and making someone else 'wrong' is a useless strategy if it only leads to gridlock. When do we actually start to confront and solve problems instead of engaging in the anger, fear, and finger-pointing that's characterized American life over the past few decades." They argue that whenever their voice reflects despair, you can also see a deep sense of idealism and the age-old American desire to make the future better. They write that these voices hold a lot of hope. The Spiral Notebook is not a sociological study but rather a "most and intimate look at one family's exploration of a new form of American terrorism."
Their journey toward understanding more about violence started at home with family discussions – later they journeyed across the country to learn more. Wrapping up their experience, they write, "We all wanted the same thing, and what we had learnt was stunningly simple: Get involved. Be a participant. Take a chance. Speak Up – like Abbey. See this as an opportunity, a moment to connect with others and to create something new. Ask a question, ask a follow up question, and then listen carefully. Don't be satisfied with surfaces. Don't think that you don't matter. Keep asking questions and keep listening, and there is no telling what you might hear and where those words might lead you or what you might do next."
The Spiral Notebook is a chilling and disturbing analysis of American terrorism. It provides deep insight into one of the biggest threats faced by our society. No other book has explored the reasons behind the violence by American youth in such a vivid way. This is a must read for all Americans. Reviewed by TWBR team

It happens many times in life that you have many choices when selecting the best option. For example, you may have the option to select which movie you want to see or where you should go for your next vacation.
In your personal life, you may make the decision just randomly, or based upon your experience and/or suggestions from your family members or friends.
However, in professional life when you have been given options to make a selection, you go by a set of rules because here the stakes are high and you cannot afford to make a wrong decision.
Suppose your organization has received many projects, but due to resource constraints, your organization cannot undertake all projects at once. Therefore, your organization has to make the decision to select a project which is less risky, and could provide them with maximum profit and recognition.
There are various methods which help you choose your project wisely. These methods can be divided into two categories:
- Benefit Measurement Methods
- Constrained Optimization Method
Although there is a difference among methodologies used in each technique, the basic principle and ultimate goal are the same, which is to provide your organization the maximum profit and recognition.
In fact, every organization has a defined process that helps them choose the right project aligned with their strategic objectives.
Generally, this process is performed by upper management; for example, the Steering Committee, Project Management Office (PMO), Project Selection Committee, etc.
While evaluating the project they will evaluate many areas, such as:
- Whether they are capable of doing it or not
- If they have all resources required to complete the project
- If it will help them achieve their objective (recognition and maximum profit)
Okay, now let's discuss each type of project selection method.
Benefit Measurement Methods
This technique is widely used in the selection of projects, which is based on the present value of estimated cash inflow and outflow. Here, you calculate the cost and benefits, and then compare them with other projects to make a decision.
Before we move to benefit measurement techniques, we have to understand one important concept: Discounted Cash Flows.
Discounted Cash Flow
We all know that the worth of money received today is more than the money received in the future. For example, the value 10,000 USD after 10 years will not be same as today; its worth will be far lower than the current value of 10,000 USD.
Therefore, while calculating the cost invested and return on investment, we have to consider the concept of discounted cash flow.
Now let's get back to benefits measurement methods.
The following is a list of techniques used in benefit measurement methods:
- Benefit/Cost Ratio
- Economic Model (Economic Value Added)
- Scoring Model
- Payback Period
- Net Present Value
- Discounted Cash Flow
- Internal Rate of Return
- Opportunity Cost
Benefit/Cost Ratio
This technique is also known as Cost/Benefit Ratio.
As the name suggests, it is the ratio between the present value of inflow (cost invested to the project) and the present value of outflow (value of return form the project). If the budget is not a constraint, the project with a higher Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR) will be selected.
Economic Value Added (EVA)
Economic Value Added (EVA) is a performance metric that calculates the worth creation for the organization, and defines the return on capital (ROC). It is the net profit after deducting all taxes and capital expenditure.
If you have many projects, the project with the higher Economic Value Added (EVA) will be selected. Keep in mind that EVA is expressed in dollar value, not in a percentage.
Scoring Model
This is more like an objective technique. Here, the project selection committee will list a few relevant criteria, weigh them according to their priorities and importance, and then will add all these weighted values.
Once you complete scoring the projects, the project with the highest score will be selected.
Payback Period
This is the ratio of total cash out with an average per period cash in. You can also say that it is the time required to recover the cost invested in the project.
If other parameters are the same, the project with the minimum payback period will be selected.
Net Present Value (NPV)
This is the difference between the current value of cash inflow and the current value of cash outflow of the project. Net Present Value (NPV) should always be positive, and the project with the highest NPV will be the better option.
Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
This is the interest rate at which the Net Present Value becomes zero. In other words, you can say that it is the rate at which the present value of the outflow is equal to the present value of inflows.
If you have many projects to choose from, you will select the project with the highest IRR.
Opportunity Cost
This is the cost that we are giving up by choosing some other project. If you have many projects, you will choose the project with the lesser opportunity cost.
These are the few benefits measurement techniques used in the selection of projects. In general, for most organizations benefits measurement methods are enough to lead them to a decision.
Constrained Optimization Methods
This model is also known as the Mathematical Model of project selection, which is used for large projects requiring complex mathematical calculations.
The following is the list of techniques used in the Mathematical Model of project selection:
- Linear Programming
- Non-linear Programming
- Integer Programming
- Dynamic Programming
A detailed discussion of these topics is out of the scope of the PMP Certification exam. For the PMP exam, all you need to know is that these are the Mathematical Model techniques and are used in project selection.
Project selection techniques help you select a project which could provide you with a better return on investment and recognition. There are various methods to select a project; however, if the project is small and not very complex, you will go for the benefits measurement model. If it is a large and complex project, you will go for the constrained optimization method.
If you have something on your mind, you can share it through the comments section.

Stuttgart, June 25: Tens of thousands of England fans dressed in red and white poured into the city chanting were not going home, were not going home.
They arent and all because of David Beckham, who answered critics calling for his scalp with a free kick to lead England to a scrappy 1-0 victory against Ecuador. Beckham curled in the free kick from 35 metres in the 60th minute.
The England captain, who felt sick and was taken off towards the end of the match, said later: Roberto Carlos (his Real Madrid team mate) sent me a text saying score me a free kick.
England fans might want to request the Brazilian to send such a message to Beckham also before the quarter-finals on Saturday.
Beckham became Englands first player to score in three World Cups. His shot was one of the few highlights of a lacklustre match in which neither side was able to carve out clear-cut openings.
If anything, England was fortunate to have held Ecuador to a 0-0 draw at half-time. The South Americans should have been a goal up after 11 minutes when John Terrys headed interception fell to Carlos Tenorio with only Paul Robinson to beat.
The Ecuador striker took a second too long and his deflected shot, under a challenge by Ashley Cole, hit the bar and flew over.
England, lacking any real bite in a 4-5-1 formation with Wayne Rooney as the lone striker, had to wait 27 minutes for a shot on goal from midfielder Frank Lampard.
Englands passing, which was often poor before the break, failed to improve afterwards.
Sven-Goran Erikssons men, who seemed intent on boring the South Americans into submission, came to life after Beckhams goal.
Beckham said later he wasnt feeling well before the game. But I thought I would be fine and in the first half I felt fine'. But it (the sickness) continued in the second half and it just came out.
Eriksson said he had no option but to substitute his captain. He was gone physically.
England fans would be grateful to the coach for not listening to former players and pundits who had called for the captain to be benched.
Were happy. Weve done our job, Beckham said.

Of course, our advanced education program can't subsitute real cultural experiences, which are a highly important part of every exchange program. Therefore the International Summer University Kassel offers a choice of workshops which you can attend during your stay. Each course focuses on a different field of interest and will be held in English.
You may choose one of the following workshops, which is included in your fee:
German Cooking
Germany is internationally renowned for the bratwurst, for pretzels and for beer. But that is not all, the local cuisine has a lot more to offer! So dive deep into the heart and soul of the German Traditions. Nothing captures the personality of a people better than what and the way they eat. The class will meet in an evening to cook up some tasty German recipes and treats.Take your favourite recipes with you and show your friends and family back home the most delicious souvenirs of yours.
German Folk Dance
Come and enjoy yourself in our folk dance! Germany has many different regions – each having preserved its own cultural identity. Traditional folk dance is obviously an important part of this heritage. So why do you not join the workshop and experience it yourself. A local folk dance group from Kassel will be invited to show you their best moves.
Soccer Workshop
Soccer is one of the most popular sports worldwide. But in Germany soccer is not only played, it is celebrated and adored! Over 3.5 million Germans play soccer in more than 26.000 amateur clubs in their spare time. Every season 12 million viewers watch matches of the Bundesliga, the main German soccer league, and the national team has already won the world cup for the fourth time!
So, why are Germans so crazy about soccer? Well, that's what the workshop will be all about! If you want to learn more about this essential part of German culture, you are perfectly right in the course.
The workshop will combine classroom experience with outdoor activities. You will learn about the history and the culture of soccer in Germany, but don't worry: There will be no boring theories, but rather interesting facts to understand German soccer enthusiasm.
Of course, we mostly want you to play soccer. There will be soccer practice once a week on a soccer field. It does not matter whether you are a beginner or an advanced soccer player. Just come by and enjoy playing and being part of the team. As a matter of fact, we do not want to focus on tactics, we want you to be active, to learn by playing and, most important of all, to have fun! All you have to bring are sports clothes and sports shoes (soccer shoes are of course recommended).
Are you interested? Then we will be happy to welcome you at the workshop.

We use the horse to focus on three principles- communication, trust, and respect. Interacting with horses gives us the opportunity to see the importance of listening and perceiving what the other part of a relationship is saying. The horse needs to know that the rider is listening to him and that you know they are listening to you. Next, the horse must trust you. The horse learns to trust you only when he sees that you treat him with respect. The level of trust reflects the amount of respect in the relationship. Just like in any relationship, be it human, spiritual, or between horse and rider, relational health can only be accomplished when there is healthy communication and trust gained through respectful actions.
Our programs include one-on-one sessions, day events for groups and multi-day camps. Most of our participants visit the Ranch for single day events and 90-minute sessions. In all activities, we take care to tailor each session to the needs of each child or pre-existing group. In addition to our group days and Thursday night sessions, we also offer three 3-day camps during the summer. These multiday camps provide hours of horse time, crafts, devotions and meals during camp hours. See below for more descriptions of the programs we offer.

We're still in July, 1967. Jaye Paro passes along a couple of incoherent communiques from the supposed aliens. Agar was one of her usual contacts, and doesn't make much sense. Revelation 8 concerns the four angels blowing their trumpets; it doesn't do much to clarify the message. I also don't know if John is being compared to John of Patmos.
After another strange phone call, John heads for Long Island. He checks into a hotel, and finds a Gideon Bible with his name in it. Of course, John is a common name, as well as a book of the Bible, but you can't blame him for being spooked.

Opportunities for students to engage with enterprise and entrepreneurship activities have been enthusiastically developed within the University of Leeds for more than 10 years – both in the curriculum (through the Centre for Enterprise & Entrepreneurship Studies) and as part of business start-up support services (SPARK) – and over that last two years our Centres have won all four major national awards for University and Student Entrepreneurship within the UK for our work in this area, the only University to ever achieve this.
The MSc Enterprise and Entrepreneurship will develop understanding of enterprise, entrepreneurship, family business and 'social enterprise' on a global scale.
The MSc Enterprise and Entrepreneurship is about helping students develop into successful entrepreneurs; confident in starting their own businesses or in working for an existing business in an entrepreneurial way. It can be taken either full-time (over 12 months) or part-time (over 24 months).
The programme provides a powerful mix of theory and practice and will certainly help students to develop ideas further. We offer a diverse cohort from many sectors and nations – all with a passion for enterprise and entrepreneurship. Students enjoy networking with classmates. We have also recently launched a part-time MSc Enterprise and Entrepreneurship that means that we have local entrepreneurs in the class studying alongside the full-time students and adding even greater expertise to the mix.

Priyanka Chopra has become an international celebrity with the release of Quantico. Quantico is an American drama show that features Priyanka's character Alex in the lead role.
Piggy Chops has done really well for herself...after launching her debut album with Pitbull, Priyanka has yet again acclaimed an international stage with Quantico. Her rising global fan base and features on the international magazines are a few of the things we come across daily.
In the thick of garnering attention from the international audiences and posing for the magazine covers, Priyanka Chopra wardrobe confidentialities has totally taken a set back. Undoubtedly, her wardrobe has become 'the talk' among the fashion mavens, but they've totally tossed her signature style.
While the fashion blogs and magazine were busy covering Priyanka's ball gowns and red carpet wardrobe, we were busy observing her signature style. Post our intensive research, we have concluded that Priyanka has a fetish for jumpsuits. Really! How?
Because Piggy Chops is seen donning these almost everywhere. Well, to put in right words, she cannot get enough of these. So let's have a look at some of PC's jumpsuits looks:

I wrote my three congressmen today to voice my opposition to a well-known pair of bills that are under consideration by the United States House of Representatives and Senate (respectively), namely SOPA and PIPA. These bills were drafted with strong support from the multimedia industry and they bring a very heavy hand into the legal realm of copyright enforcement and are very unpopular with Internet-based companies and most Internet users in general. As I write this, many websites are in the middle of a day-long self-imposed blackout in protest.
I strongly oppose these bills. I do sympathize with the fact that multimedia companies have legal and moral rights to exercise over their content and that these rights are violated by mass-piracy, but these bills take far too drastic action to protect said rights. I won't re-iterate all the reasons why these bills are bad, even in spite of recent tamer modifications.
So I wrote my three congressmen today to voice my opposition. I'd like to share the letter publicly, as a wider proclamation of my position on this issue and hopefully as an aid for anyone writing their congressmen on a political issue. It's not a master-piece, but I thought it might be helpful. I'll explain some of the reasoning and structure below. Here it is:
To the Honorable [insert congressman's full name],
I would like to add my voice of support to the millions of people who oppose [SOPA/PIPA].
I am sympathetic to the motivation of the bill. I understand that multimedia companies have proper motivation to protect their intellectual property. I support their moral and legal rights to own their content.
However, I do not believe that their efforts to protect their property should be at the expense of humanity's convenience and technological development. We the people do not exist to listen to music, we listen to music while we live our lives. Similarly, technology does not exist to play music, it exists to enable us to do what we want, some of which is to listen to music. Legislation like [SOPA/PIPA] takes a multimedia-centered viewpoint of the universe, assuming that we should hinder productivity and change the dynamics of an entire industry just to protect the convenience of one sector of that industry.
The multimedia industry has a history of resisting technological development due to their reluctance to change business models. They tried to legally combat cassette tapes, video tapes, and CDs under the pretense of fighting piracy that would hurt them. Yet those very mediums enabled them to distribute their content in better, more widely-reaching ways than before. They resist change, yet change and progress is what technology, and humanity itself, is about. Every sector of an industry faces critical changes over time, and while it can be difficult for them to adjust they should not seek legal aid pass their difficulties onto us, the common citizen. This is a capitalist society, the multimedia sector needs to adjust, not be pampered.
My request, congressman, is that your position be to protect the progress of the general public. I support the multimedia sector's desire to protect its content - once again, I sympathize with their motivation - but not at the expense of all our development. Their history and the current [SOPA/PIPA] legislation show that they are not seeking to provide us with multimedia enjoyment while we live our lives, they prefer to limit our lives to fit their existing business models.
Thank you for your time. For what it's worth, I voted for you. To protect me.
--Brad Conte
Some thoughts on this letter, in no particular order:
- I used SOPA or PIPA where appropriate for the recipient. One bill is in one house, the other bill in the other house. Writing a blanket statement like "SOPA and PIPA", or worse yet just the popular one "SOPA", sounds more like a form letter. Who wants to get a letter that mentioning a bill that they can't even vote on?
- I wanted to paint a big picture perspective. 1) I gave a very quick history of similar actions in the industry and their outcomes. 2) I noted that the multimedia industry is just a sub-sector of the larger industry that this bill effects. 3) I remembered international concerns; the U.S. is the country most impacted immediately, but this likely has implications for the whole world, hence I slipped in the word "humanity" a couple times. The goal wasn't to be dramatic, but to always remind them of how wide-reaching the implication would be. The overall point was that this was far too invasive an action to protect one specific sector.
- As a general rule for opinions and debates, you should always separate general intent from specific implementation and you should separate analysis of the consequences from debate over what the consequences are. If you want to get your point across to someone, decide which perspective you're arguing and make it clear, too many conversations are completely wasted due to a missing of the minds on those simple topics and jumping confusingly between perspectives. In my letter, I opposed this implementation of copyright and laid out the consequences for what happened. If the congressmen doesn't agree that the assessments that I asserted, that's the subject for a separate, much longer e-mail. I would suggest that it's best to go for lots of detail or very little, because few things are as weak as an argument that uses just a few details strewn about.
- It's easy to read - about 370 words and about 2/3 of a printed page, so easily readable in a few minutes. There are 5 paragraphs (the closing line isn't really a paragraph), but only 3 have the bulk of the content; it looks very digestible at a quick glance. That's all you need to give a summary of a position. This makes it easily skim-able: a) while each paragraph is unique, you could omit any one and get the majority of the argument, b) you could read the first sentence of each paragraph and still get the message (that's actually a good rule in general), and c) you could read the first and last paragraphs and understand it. Given the popularity of this topic, it's likely that if the congressman is reading my letter, it is just one of hundreds on the same topic.
- I emphasized what impact my position would have on the opponents (the multimedia industry). Actually, I somewhat trivialized their position as simply being for "convenience". It isn't a matter of preserving the multimedia companies, it's simply about them finding and adjusting to a new business model, just like they've done several times in the past. It's important to know what's at stake in a situation like this, and I wanted to contrast humanity's technological stifling against their convenient business model. (In retrospect, trivializing it as "convenience" was a pretty strong statement to make without supporting evidence, maybe it should've been a little tamer.)
- Similar to the above, the secondary focus of the letter was on priorities. "We the people" are not befitted in general by this bill. I said and implied that a couple of times.
- The tone is unemotional, yet a little grave. It's a serious subject but it won't kill my grandmother, so there's no need to sound like it would.
- The closing line ("...I voted for you. To protect me.") might come off a bit snarky, but it conveys a valid point. Congressmen are put in place by "the people" and those people are who will lose (and lose very badly) should the legislation pass. Obviously there are times where a congressmen needs to put aside the individual or short-term benefits of each person for the big picture, but I wanted to remind them that my hope is that their voice will do its best to echo ours. If I would be strongly opposed to the bill, that should count for something. I didn't make any threats (ie, "I won't vote for you if you don't oppose this"), I just reminded them of established fact. And, for what it's worth, I did actually vote for the congressmen I wrote to. (I shouldn't have to point that out, but it's an easy statement to lie about and I've seen it done elsewhere.)
Hopefully the letters will do some good. (Update: For what it's worth, I only received back form replies from a couple of the congressmen.)

Leadership 1 with Steve Johnson
Are you learning? Are you having fun? #Insights on making the right career choice from @steve1johnson [Click to Tweet]
#Disruptive businesses keep changing and make things interesting #Insights [Click to Tweet]
The secret to doing so much in a short time is getting a great #leadership team #Insights [Click to Tweet]
Steve Johnson: I really like three things personally. Am I making an impact? It's something that I'm doing. Well, I usually ask my team like, "What are you doing if you want a beautiful and perfect life? You have a limited time, one run through this. Is it doing something where you really making an impact? Are you learning? Are you having fun?"
Steve Johnson: The second is, for me personally, I like something that has global scope. I don't know why but I think it's just more interesting and makes me feel like I'm doing something with impact. And the third, sometimes it's overused but I like something that's disruptive where it's something that's really changing and doing something different.
Steve Johnson: Hootsuite, I thought was super fascinating because we were helping organizations all around the world manage social media which was blowing up. An organization simply could not keep up with it. They couldn't do what they needed to do on social media without a solution like Hootsuite.
Steve Johnson: So that to me was disruptive. It's changing. You're moving from one communication media or type to another to do it. It's driven by the customers. So those are the things that really give me real purpose and I want to make sure that what I'm doing is having an impact, as large of an impact as I possibly can have. Right or wrong, this is what motivates me.
Steve Johnson: It's super interesting. I've had experience in time to be with a lot of other companies before this in lower levels. What I learned over that time was that leadership is really finding leaders. So I couldn't have done it without a bunch of leaders to help me out. Leaders hire leaders.
Steve Johnson: Managers sometimes don't hire anybody or they don't want to do that or change. But if you have a great leader, they know it's going to take a lot of other people that are going to help them along the way and I think that was our secret in how we were able to do so much in such a short amount of time. It's really just getting a great leadership team.

It's taken them 96 years to get around to a rematch.
Now the descendants of Serbians evacuated to Edinburgh to escape the horrors of the First World War will watch as their countrymen take on the Scots who taught them to play rugby.
Nearly a century ago the city took in children displaced by the conflict and introduced them to the game while they studied at George Heriot's.
The school's elders took it upon themselves to do something for those who had escaped the war-torn Balkans and the people of Edinburgh paid for their education.
That generosity will be repaid when teams from the Capital travel to Belgrade as guests of honour at a major European tournament this summer. Descendants of the same 27 Serbs who studied at the prestigious school will watch as teams from Scotland, England, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Austria, Romania, Russia, Hungary and Croatia compete at the event.
The invitation for Heriot's Rugby Club to attend the tournament in June came about after a documentary on the lives of the evacuees was aired in Serbia last month.
Serbian national television picked up on research being undertaken by Louise Miller, a stockbroker and writer from Bruntsfield, and sent a film crew to Edinburgh to highlight the story.
The idea to make the Heriot's players guests of honour came after coaches from Belgrade side RK Pobednik saw the documentary when it was screened in Serbia last month.
Ms Miller told the Evening News: "On a number of levels it's very important that this tournament is happening and that a team from Heriot's are planning to go. It celebrates the good in Serbian history amid all the tragedy it's seen in recent times.
"It's important to remember the good and the bad.
"They're going to experience Serbian hospitality on a big scale. It's also a way of remembering what the people of Edinburgh did to help those boys and what staff and pupils did to help them."
During her research she learned of the hardships the evacuees had to endure to escape the conflict before arriving in Edinburgh.
The evacuation order was issued by the Serbian government in late November 1915 and 15,000 boys attempted to escape through the mountains of Albania and Montenegro, with 8000 dying on the way.
The survivors arrived starving and skeletal. They had been surviving on tree bark and twigs during the crossing.
Ms Miller added: "Yet all of the boys who arrived in Edinburgh went on to do really well. They all eventually returned to Serbia but three ended up studying engineering at Edinburgh University, and most of the others went on to study at university as well."
Heriot's hopes to send both junior and senior teams to the tournament.
Dave Walker, Heriot's Rugby Club committee member whose prop forward son, Robert, 16, will be among those competing, said the event will be a special experience.
He said: "It's a fantastic opportunity, particularly with the historic connection."
Mark Barrett, director of rugby at the Belgrade side RK Pobednik, said: "This tournament celebrates the origins of Serbian rugby."

At some point, it happens to everyone. You lift the lid on a toilet bowl only to be greeted by a ring of black mold. It could be in your home or in a friends'. You stare at it, wondering if you want to do your business, after all. You question if it's even safe to squat down. If you're at a friends' house you have to deal with it, maybe by using excessive amounts of toilet paper. But if you're at home, this is your wake-up call. You have to handle the problem and fast. In addition to its unsightly appearance, toilet mold can be potentially hazardous to your health, especially if you have allergies or are exposed to it for long periods of time.
What Causes Toilet Mold?
Mold is a fungus that grows where there's moisture. A good temperature (the same temperature range people prefer) and a food source are helpful, but the moisture is the real problem. All homes have spores floating around in the air, but homes with excess humidity are more likely to develop a fungal problem.
There are many possible reasons for the appearance of mold in your toilet tank or bowl. If you've been gone for awhile, the stagnant water can breed the mildew, particularly if human waste has sat along with it, after only three days. Think about your bathroom. The toilet, the sink, the shower: all of those produce moisture, so having mildew problem is very common. The very presence of your water is likely to attract spores. If they're let sit for long periods of time, problems erupt.
How to Remove Mold in a Toilet
Black mold removal needs to done correctly. Prolonged exposure to the spores is dangerous, so it's essential that you take care of the problem swiftly and use the right equipment.
Before you begin, put together everything you'll need: goggles, gloves, boots and breathing protection. Get bleach to kill it, borate and one other household cleaner. Open windows so that you're not breathing in the bleach. If your bathroom doesn't have windows, open the door and open doors and windows in other parts of the house to keep air flowing. After that, you're ready to begin.
Step 1: Flush the toilet and drain as much water out of it as possible.
Step 2: Use a cleaner, such a spray bottle of vinegar or some laundry detergent, to clean the toilet and loosen the fungus. Flush. Repeat this step until you no longer see the toilet mold.
Step 3: Put a cup of bleach into the toilet and let it sit. Do the same with the toilet tank if you've seen evidence of a problem there, too. Leave it for 15-30 minutes. Do not add ammonia because the mixture emits a toxic gas. Do not add other household cleaners. Flush and repeat.
Step 4: Using a mixture of water and bleach (one cup of bleach per gallon of water), scrub down the toilet boil and tank while wearing gloves.
Step 5: Flush your toilet again and dry as much of it as you can. Flush again.
Step 6: Apply borate, which can be found in the laundry aisle at the grocery store, to your toilet bowl. This can prevent mildew from growing again.
Step 6: Clean up. Throw out any towels or brushes you used to clean.
Step 7: Wash your hands and face.
Preventative Measures to Reduce Future Outbreaks
Make sure to clean your bathroom regularly with bathroom cleaners and anti-fungal sprays at least once a month. Wipe down your shower and use a good bristle brush on the toilet. Add the borax and don't forget to check how the tank is doing.
You can use paint that will discourage mildew from growing on the walls, which is particularly useful for rooms with a high amount of humidity, such as bathrooms. You can paint over it with regular paint without reducing its effectiveness.
Consider purchasing a dehumidifier to reduce the amount of humidity in your home. If you can't locate the source of the moisture, contact a professional to identify it for you.
Mold is dangerous and can cause health problems if it goes unchecked. Exposure can cause respiratory problems, sinus congestion, watery eyes, skin irritation, sore throat, coughing and asthma attacks. If you smell something musty in your home or suddenly start having allergy attacks, it's possible that you have a problem.
If you find it, black mold removal is essential for your health because it can cause severe health problems, such as abdominal pain and dizziness, if you are susceptible to mold allergies or have a weak immune system.
The moment you notice mold in your toilet or bathroom, you need to handle it. Don't wait. When it's gone, be sure to do everything possible to keep it from returning.

ROBERT SNODGRASS dashed into Scotland's World Cup camp last night and immediately declared himself ready to gun down Croatia again.
The Norwich midfielder arrived at Mar Hall to link up with the squad just 48 hours before the final Group A game.
While the rest of the squad have prepared in Glasgow for the past five days for tomorrow's clash against the Croats, Snodgrass was given compassionate leave by boss Gordon Strachan to be at the birth of his new daughter Leonie.
Snodgrass joined the rest of the squad at their Renfrewshire base last night and said: "I'm absolutely buzzing after the birth of our baby. I managed to train at the club last week and I think the adrenalin of fatherhood alone will get me through the game.
"I'm looking forward to training on Monday and seeing the boys. I would like to thank the manager for being so understanding by letting me get everything sorted with my family.
"It's important we finish as high up the table as we can and really give the crowd at Hampden something to cheer."

Hauptbahnhof - Frankfurt Main Station
Frankfurt am Main, Germany
Hauptbahnhof - Frankfurt Main Station Frankfurt am Main Reviews
70 reviews
Aug 04, 2006
Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof is massive - probably the biggest train station I've ever been to!! (Hey - I'm not exactly Alan Whicker you know!)
The huge curved roofs house over 25 platforms from where you can catch a train to virtually anywhere in Europe and probably many places beside. Consequently it is nearly always extremely busy.
The forecourt holds more bars, restaurants and food vendors than a reasonable sized shopping mall with everything from the ubiquitous American burger bars to a Thai Noodle Bar.
And it doesn't stop there - if you venture down into the underground station below it there are further miles of passageways filled with shops and bars.
Anyway - onto my tip as this is supposed to be a 'things to know' section:
German train timetables can be a bit confusing if you're not used to them. A better idea is to visit the information point which is located in the centre of the forecourt just in front of the main exit. Here friendly rail staff will happily print out a customised timetable for you based on your destination and the time you'd be looking to depart / arrive - all much easier than trying to keep track of the standard timetables!!
Also, if you're just arriving in the city then it's worth visiting the tourist information located on the right by the outer doors where a useful English language map of the U-Bahn / S-Bahn / tram system can be purchased for 50 cents (you have to ask for it at the counter.) As Frankfurt has such a fantastic public transport system you might as well make the most of it!!

Cinema-Style Explained
Imagine you're sitting in a movie theater and the feature film begins to play. If you pay close attention, you'll see a lots of smooth camera movement, interesting camera angles, hear sound effects, see color changes in the film, etc. We have taken that "movie industry" formula to the world of Corporate American, and it's huge.
One of the most obvious differences in a cinematic style verses a news crew, or wedding videographer is the movement of the camera. By using filmmaking tools such as a track dolly, a camera crane, a steadicam, or just a very heavy tripod, we create very smooth camera movements, which scream class and high quality.
Common Videography
There is nothing wrong with the common method of producing videos-its just not our style.
Typical, smaller video production companies use the handheld method of shooting, with the occasional tripod (think reality show style).
Care must be taken when shooting with the camera handheld. Several years ago, a film was released called "Clover field. Most of the entire film was shot-handheld. Numerous news outlets reported audience member becoming motion sick from the movement.
Again, there is nothing wrong with this style, but we rarely use it

I am Abhinav, a 4th-year computer science student at Birla Institute of Technology and Sciences, Pilani. Congratulations on getting selected for GSOC 2017. I am looking forward to working with the team and contributing to ArduPilot. I am particularly interested in "Improved IoT integration using APSync to allow live viewing of drone location on web page" and "Improved live video for APSync including video stream discover and publishing". I have worked on a project where I was developing a GUI for live video streaming and mapping of the copter and have significant experience with IP cameras. Currently, I am going through the codebase and how to contribute. Can you please give me a brief idea about what my next step should be?
Some next steps might include: - grabbing one of the APSync images from http://firmware.ardupilot.org and flashing them onto a device. Ensuring that the (somewhat limited) current functionality works. RPi is probably best. - reading through the short project description I wrote up on camera-support-in-APSync the other day. Note the "work in progress" annotation! I really just needed somewhere to dump my thoughts, and that was the place. Everything is up for grabs! - understanding MAVLink - what it is, how it works, how to create messages - considering David Buzz's efforts towards a GUI interface for APSync: https://github.com/davidbuzz/companion/commits/webconfig_wip - considering any other GUI options that might be available - @jaxxzer suggested their interface might be transportable at one stage
That's not an exhaustive list of things you could look at
If you are going to propose a project related to video stream discovery and publish I suggest you to also take a look at the Camera-Streaming-Daemon (https://github.com/01org/camera-streaming-daemon), a daemon that does video discovery, advertisement and streaming for drones. It is not integrated on apsync, but it would be nice if we could integrate that to apsync and work in a single solution for different platforms instead of having multiple implementations of camera streaming for drones.

Mr. Christmas Interactive Lights & Sound Ornament with VoiceActivation 56 56
Fun for the kids...but frustrating for me... Would have been 5 stars but Mr. Christmas seems to not want to respond to my voice....the grand kids had a blast irritating me because they didn't seem to have any trouble getting him to respond.... 01-31-14
One Cute Mouse Well when I seen these on QVC, wasn't sure how much I would like them, seemed a bit funny...but he is rather fun...each morning I say "Hello Mr. Christmas" and then "Lights on" and I sit and watch my lovely tree come to life. I sit and drink my coffee until I have to head out the door and then it merely is off when I once again say "Hello Mr Christmas" and then "Good Night". the lights blink on and off during the songs which I really don't like, but that is okay...I like the ability to turn it on and off merely with my voice. Fun for the kids for sure...and us grown up kids too!!! 12-02-13
Its Awsome I love this mr.Christmas its so cool and I can wait to put it on the tree. 11-03-13
Doesn't work with my tree :( The idea is great, the product itself is very nice and sounds great but, it doesn't work with my tree. I bought the Santa's Best Frasierfur Christmas Tree with the morphing lights and Mr. Christmas won't turn my tree on or off. Also, if the speaker is too close to the ornament, Mr. Christmas will have a hard time hearing you and will play random songs. It's too bad, because I was really looking forward to this product. Gave it to my mom. Hopefully it will work with her tree. 10-12-13
Mr.Christmas Brought this last year and everyone loved it. My Daughter asked me to look out for it for her for xmas this year. DebbieB 09-25-13
Adorable My grandchildren absolutely loved this! I'm looking forward to it being on their tree this year. 09-23-13
Awesome Christmas decoration Bought this in 2012 and my grandchildren loved it. It worked so well and looked nice on the tree. 09-17-13
Was too Cute, But Not Worth The Money! This item is so cute, Mr. Christmas, so charming, but the music was not clear. My 2 year old Grandson was afraid of him. Sorry to say I had to return. 09-05-13
Mr. Mouse is adorable!!! I love Mr. Mouse. He speaks clearly and loudly. And he makes us laugh. Love the music. This is well worth it to make your CHRISTmas special. 08-22-13
LOVE, LOVE IT! I purchased this last yr & fell in love with it. When my 5 yr old granddaughter came to visit she fell in love with it as well. Christmas morning after opening all her gifts she looks at me & ask if I would get her Mr. Christmas for her tree next yr. Well of course I had to get it for her. Can't wait to see her face when I present it to her in Nov. so she'll have it for her tree this yr. 08-21-13
this does go on all by ityself it is possessed and has a mind of its own. goes on by itself, daytime, night time, early morning hours. have to unplug it, was a nice gift at first then went berserk. 01-30-13
Cute, but has a mind of it's own Purchased and used this at Christmas this year. Very entertaining, but mine frequently turned on by itself and would play random carols. Also was rather difficult to make it understand what we were saying. My grandchild liked it but most of the time Mr Christmas did not understand them and I would have to give the commands. Keeping it though and I imagine it will be part of my Christmas decor for years to come. 01-22-13

author's notes: sorry i've been MIA for a while, especially to those of you following my other fic, "disconnection". i've been feeling kind of creatively blocked lately, but hopefully i'll get back to that soon. this one-shot kind of goes with that fic, but would probably have had to have happened at some point before chapter 16. anyways, i think Chad's been acting too nice in that fic lately, i just wanted to make sure folks didn't forget his bitter origins.
a note on the rating, there is one cuss word in here, but nothing worse than that, so for those of you who might be offended by that, consider yourself warned!
Chad knew that he shouldn't have said yes when Stacy asked him to the prom. Now he had to rent a tux and buy a corsage and spend hours with some girl he didn't even like. But he had an ulterior motive. It was a plan that he had been considering for weeks, even before the word "prom" was on everyone's lips.
He knew that Cree would be going to the prom with Maurice; it was a matter of course. And he knew that seeing the two of them together at the dance would be about as much fun as jabbing needles into his eyes. And he knew that Stacy would cling to him and blather on about things he didn't care about. In short, he knew the whole experience would be miserable.
But still, when Stacy cornered him after practice one day, face flushed and eyes shining, as Chad tried—and failed—to care, when she finally giggled out the invitation at a rate almost too fast to be understood, he said, "Sure. Okay." And then she giggled more, bouncing up and down a little, and ran off, and Chad knew immediately that he was going to have a horrible time.
He was right. Getting the tux was a pain, and renting the limo pretty much bled his savings dry, even after splitting the cost with Cavallaro. Chad needed to ask his dad for an advance on his allowance to buy the stupid corsage, and of course Stacy wanted him to pin it on her—"over my heart" she had winked—and he silently ground his teeth as he tried not to stab her.
Once at the prom—or rather, once at the dark and badly decorated gym—things only got worse. As Chad predicted, Stacy was a clinger, and she insisted they dance whenever a slow song was played. He hated slow songs. They were always too long. During the excruciating minutes when he was obligated to dance with Stacy, when she wrapped her arms around him tight and rested her head against his shoulder, he felt like the single most wretched person in the room—on Earth, even. He kept internally urging the song to end, and yelled at anyone unfortunate enough to bump into him on the crowded dance floor. And he kept searching the mass of couples for Cree. He didn't know why he did, because whenever he did catch a glimpse of her it was pain. She looked so happy with her arms around him; she looked the exact opposite of how he felt. But he couldn't help it; whenever he saw her he was transfixed and couldn't take his eyes off her. And whenever another couple got in his way and he lost sight of her, he searched and strained until he found her again.
It was in the middle of one of the dances that Chad finally snapped. He had been watching Cree with her head against Maurice's shoulder, almost exactly the same way Stacy's was on his. It felt like his heart was being wrenched from his chest, but he didn't look away. What he really wanted to do was go over there and tear the two of them apart; to throw Maurice aside and claim Cree for himself. Of course he couldn't do that, so all he could do was stare. And when they were blocked from view, and he could no longer do even that, he suddenly found himself unable to breathe.
"Stacy, let go, you're holding on too tight," he choked.
She didn't hear him, or at least didn't react.
He fought for air. "Let go!" He pried her off of him and staggered off the dance floor to the punch table where he leaned his weight on his arms and gasped for breath.
"Chad, what's wrong?" asked Stacy.
Dammit, why did she have to follow me?
"I'm fine. I just couldn't breathe in there."
Stacy stepped even closer to him. "We could go outside," she suggested mischievously.
Chad knew all too well what the couples outside were doing. "I'm fine," he repeated, straightening, pouring himself some punch with shaky hands.
"Okay, if you say—oh! I love this song!" she squealed, grabbing his arm to pull him back to the dance floor.
He flinched away from her. "I've already danced with you four times, isn't that enough? Just leave me alone!" he snapped.
Stacy gazed at him with a hurt expression and Chad immediately felt guilty. He didn't mean to yell at her. It was just…she was so…annoying.
"Stacy, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to—"
"You ASSHOLE!" she suddenly roared with surprising volume, grabbing the punch ladle and splashing a healthy amount into Chad's face. Then she ran from the room.
Chad cursed as well, but more because he knew that punch stains would cost him extra on the rental tux than anything else. Several people standing nearby were staring and whispering to each other. Now he was damp and cold and sticky, but he didn't care. It wasn't as if the night could get any worse.
He sat down in the nearest available chair and dabbed futilely at the punch with a handful of cocktail napkins. The entire evening was nothing but a waste of time and money, and he didn't even get a chance to put his plan into action. As if he'd have the courage to put it into action if he had even gotten the chance….
"Rough night?"
Chad's head jerked up and he dropped the napkins. Cree was smiling sympathetically at him.
"What happened?" she asked with curiosity, sitting beside him. Maurice was nowhere to be found.
"Stacy threw a gallon of punch at me."
"Stacy?" Cree asked with raised brows. "I didn't know you guys were dating."
"We're not. We just…came here together."
"Oh, okay. Good. 'Cause she's leaving with Steve."
Chad looked in the direction that Cree was. Sure enough, Stacy had Steve by the arm and was giggling uncontrollably as she lead him outside. "Huh. She sure recovered fast. I wish she'd done that before she threw the punch at me."
"What did you do to her?" Cree asked with a small laugh.
"Why do you assume that I did something wrong?" Chad asked defensively.
"Girls don't throw punch at their prom dates just for the fun of it."
He chuckled weakly. "Yeah…well, you probably heard what she called me. I was pretty much acting like one."
"Hm," was her only reply, and he was glad that she didn't press the matter.
"So…where's Maurice?" Chad asked grudgingly.
"In the bathroom…I think." Cree scanned the gym. She settled a little deeper into her chair. "It's good to sit down. I love these shoes but they're really not built for standing."
Chad laughed slightly but didn't know what to say in reply. Somehow talking about the usual random stuff didn't seem quite right at a formal dance. Cree didn't seem to be in a talkative mood, either, so they both sat in silence and watched the other couples as the minutes passed.
Finally, Cree stood. "I wonder what's taking Maurice so long. Maybe I should look—"
"Do you want to dance?" Chad blurted, having stood when she did, his ears keenly tuned to the sound of another slow dance beginning.
She looked at him in surprise.
"Stacy's ditched me, and Maurice is MIA, so I thought…." He tried his best to sound non-chalant in spite of his pounding heart.
"Oh…um…well…okay," she hedged as she continued to look around the room. Then she met his eyes and smiled, which immediately sent his brain reeling. He woozily took her offered hand and together they walked to the dance floor. Once there she turned to face him, her smile a little shyer. She took a step closer.
Giddy as he was, Chad was aware and slightly disappointed that she wasn't holding him nearly as close as she had held Maurice. There was definitely plenty of air between them. But it was probably better this way. This way she wouldn't feel his thumping heart or all his trembling.
Her smile widened. "You smell like fruit punch."
He managed a grin. "All part of the plan."
There was something about being there with her, his arm around her waist, looking in her eyes…that made it very easy to imagine kissing her. It was as if he had slipped into a dream where being with her, loving her, and being loved by her was not only a possibility, but a certainty.
He was pulled from his reverie when he heard the song ending. He hated slow songs. They were always too short. It was then that he realized his eyes were closed. Maybe he had been dreaming after all…maybe he still was. Because he then became aware that he was holding her close—much closer than he had been at the beginning of the dance. His cheek was touching hers. When did that happen…?
It was too late to wonder about it, the song was over and she was already pulling away. She stood at an arm's distance, smiling that shy smile. Her hand was still clasped in his, and there was something…he knew there was something he should do….
Cree laughed a little and pulled her hand away; he released it reluctantly. The dream was over. She turned and walked off the dance floor, and he followed. Once again neither of them had anything to say.
Chad served her punch, having completely forgotten that he was still covered in it. They both drank in silence, standing by the punch table. Soon he sensed rather than saw her stand more upright, and he turned to see Maurice approaching.
"There you are, where have you been?" he heard Cree ask.
Chad didn't wait for the response. "I'm going to head out now," he said and turned to the door.
"Oh…okay," he heard her say. But then he felt her hand on his arm. Why would she do that? He turned to her questioningly.
"Good night," was all she said. Anything else he may have seen in her eyes must have been imagined.
"Good night."
He decided to be generous and let Cavallaro and his date have the limo. Home was walking distance anyways, and he wasn't in a rush to get home. When he did arrive there, his mother was conspicuously waiting in the living room.
"Back so soon, dear? Your curfew tonight's not for another hour and a half."
"Yeah, I decided to come home early."
She looked at him and gasped loudly. "Your tuxedo!" She scurried off to get the club soda.
"It's all right, Mom, I'll just pay the penalty fee."
She returned with a damp towel and proceeded to wipe at his jacket. "Oh, what a mess," she fussed, "you must have had a terrible time, poor thing…."
"It's okay, Mom, really." Chad took off the jacket and his mother immediately claimed it and continued to fret.
He headed up the stairs to his room, pulling off his bowtie. "It actually wasn't so bad. I had a good time."
His mom wasn't listening, and Chad didn't care. For a few minutes, Cree was his, which was more than he had ever dared to hope for before that night. Once he was alone in his room, he closed his eyes and tried to remember the certainty he had felt when he held her. With a wistful sigh he realized he couldn't. But after that night…it felt like a definite possibility.

All The Pretty Horses
All The Pretty Horses
Continuum | 2002 | ISBN: 0826452469 | MP3 | 274 mb
This is a novel so exuberant in its prose, so offbeat in its setting and so mordant and profound in its deliberations that one searches in vain for comparisons in American literature. None of McCarthy's previous works, not even the award-winning The Orchard Keeper (1965) or the much-admired Blood Meridian (1985), quite prepares the reader for the singular achievement of this first installment in the projected Border Trilogy. John Grady Cole is a 16-year-old boy who leaves his Texas home when his grandfather dies. With his parents already split up and his mother working in theater out of town, there is no longer reason for him to stay. He and his friend Lacey Rawlins ride their horses south into Mexico; they are joined by another boy, the mysterious Jimmy Blevins, a 14-year-old sharpshooter. Although the year is 1948, the landscapeat some moments parched and unforgiving, at others verdant and gentled by rainseems out of time, somewhere before history or after it. These likable boys affect the cowboy's taciturnitythey roll cigarettes and say what they meanand yet amongst themselves are given to terse, comic exchanges about life and death. In McCarthy's unblinking imagination the boys suffer truly harrowing encounters with corrupt Mexican officials, enigmatic bandits and a desert weather that roils like an angry god. Though some readers may grow impatient with the wild prairie rhythms of McCarthy's language, others will find his voice completely transporting. In what is perhaps the book's most spectacular feat, horses and men are joined in a philosophical union made manifest in the muscular pulse of the prose and the brute dignity of the characters. "What he loved in horses was what he loved in men, the blood and the heat of the blood that ran them," the narrator says of John Grady. As a bonus, Grady endures a tragic love affair with the daughter of a rich Spanish Hacendado , a romance, one hopes, to be resumed later in the trilogy.
