Looking at the key states that lost Clinton the election, we find traditional Democratic strongholds like Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania – states that no polls expected Trump to win. In one narrative, we find a white voting base that has been made viscerally aware of its decreasing majority due to demographic changes. Here, we are tempted to reach for the racial explanation: that America simply was not as progressive as we had imagined it to be. The danger of this crutch is that it trivializes much deeper problems. Even if racial bigotry were playing a crucial role here, one must then ask what is it that made these sentiments so central to this particular election when a black man won all of those states in both 2008 and 2012? I think a more satisfying explanation is needed.
In my opinion the key to understanding Trump's victory is to look at it through the lens of more than a decade of rising nationalism across the Western world. From the National Front in France to Germany's Alternative für Deutschland, Donald Trump's campaign draws from a well-established generation of nationalist movements that had grown increasingly prominent over the past decade. These movements universally share a desire to strengthen national identity and reintroduce immigration barriers, from the Brexit movement's goal of independent border control to Trump's proverbial wall. It is the nature of their nationalist message that these movements attract racists and bigots and for that reason they are readily dismissed by the mainstream as fringe and deplorable. Yes, race is an issue, especially in America where the historical baggage is heavy. There are real racists, including the Ku Klux Klan, who support Trump for those easily-understood reasons. But at its core, the nationalist message is really about the rejection of globalization and that is a message that is readily heard by regular people who can plainly see that their lives have not become better even as the stock markets hit record highs.
There is an age-old adage that correlation is not causation. The caveat to that is that it may very well be. We as humans are incredibly good at making spurious correlations between things we observe. That ability evolved when we lived in caves and hearing the sound of snapping twigs could mean the presence of an unseen predator, and lives on in Alexander Fleming when he discovered penicillin by observing that bacteria did not grow near a blob of mold on a petri dish. It is responsible for both our worst superstitions and prejudices and our best scientific achievements and creativity.
Imagine you are a blue-collar worker in Michigan and you think of yourself as a good person. Over the course of twenty years, you watch the community around you disintegrate and the post-war promise of the American Dream broken as the local economy disappears around you. You work harder and harder but your income remains stagnant. At the same time, you observe rising prosperity in China where the manufacturing jobs went and new unfamiliar immigrant communities start showing up around you. Trump tells you that globalization, the immigrants it brings, and the resulting dilution of the culture (racial or otherwise) that made America once great, are the cause of your problems. You are not a racist. You do not want to be seen as a racist, but it takes a great deal of perspective to not agree with him.
Now imagine you are a white-collar worker in San Francisco – Who am I kidding, you probably are – and you too think of yourself as a good person. Over the course of twenty years, you watch communities around you prosper. You work harder and your income grows. At the same time, you see a diverse population growing around you. You have many friends who are from different cultural backgrounds from you. You think that global companies are rewarded for being diverse, at least in nationality if not in gender or race, because it fosters creativity and competition. After all, improvements in the well-being of people around you have always come hand-in-hand with a welcoming immigrant society. You reject the picture that Trump paints and feel that it is your moral duty as a self-professed good person to oppose all that he stands for.
Take the same human being with all his goodness and imperfections and place him in each of the two situations. Racism and bigotry just seems so unsatisfactory an answer to the divergent outcomes we see today. What we have is an extremely inequitable economy that failed to fairly distribute the gains from globalization and automation and as a result created entirely different outcomes for ordinary people. Some of us benefited and draw one conclusion about globalization, the rest of us draw another. Robert Shiller, an economics professor from Yale, and Bernie Sanders both pointed out this trend in their pre-election articles.
In light of this larger global tide, Hillary Clinton was probably the worst candidate that the Democrats could have chosen. She was selected by the consensuses of the party establishment, had an obvious direct link to the pro-globalization wing of the cosmopolitan Democratic future instead of its blue-collar union past, and lacked a satisfying answer to a real problem. It is hard to imagine that Bernie or Biden would have lost Michigan or Wisconsin to Trump.
For as long as I remember growing up, globalization had been a force for good. It raised billions of people out of poverty, created lasting peace for the majority of the planet, and inspired an inclusive and progressive picture of the future of the human race. It is hard to look back at the antagonistic nation states of the early 20th century and the two great wars that they wrought and make a good case for why global unity is the wrong long-term goal for humans to work towards. But with all our human ingenuity, we have managed to do it – we turned globalization into a demon.
History books will look back at 2016 as the year in which anti-globalization sentiments come to a boiling point. Let us hope that this is a peak from which we will recover and not the start of a march back two hundred years to isolationism and war.

The Silk Road: A Positive Look at Asia
An outstanding book was just released about the rising nations of Asia.
Now, I may be a bit biased because I already know of and respect the work of a couple of the book's authors (it was co-written by three: Yiannis Mostrous, Elliott Gue and Ivan Martchev, editors of the Silk Road Investor, Energy Strategist and Global Viewpoints newsletters, respectively).
I've also found that what I've come to respect the most over time is balance. My commentaries sometimes stir the pot a bit because I'll rail against arguments from those I perceive to be stopped clocks; recently I've tended to call out perma-bears, but I feel the same way about those who can never seem to envision anything but sunny skies for the economy and markets, folks who have historically been mainstream Wall Street strategists.
What I prize most in other commentators is a little nuance and a willingness to re-examine and change one's opinions when called for. It's just my personal preference.
This is why I think so highly of "The Silk Road to Riches: How you can Profit by Investing in Asia's Newfound Prosperity," just released by Financial Times Prentice Hall publishing.
With their expertise in energy and international markets, do the authors acknowledge the strains the rising Asian economies are putting on the world's natural resources? Of course. They don't, however, go on to fill pages with horror stories about how oil will soon run so dry that not only will nations go to war, but neighbor will fight neighbor in a frantic battle for every drop, as at least one peak oil book has literally predicted.
Do they assert that within a generation China will become the world's largest economy? Indeed, yet the authors are reasonable enough to also recognize that for now, the nation is still reliant on U.S. consumption and would be dramatically impacted by a meaningful consumer slowdown here, as opposed to some who suggest that if U.S. consumption went south, the Chinese wouldn't skip a beat, they'd simply start consuming all their output themselves. With an under-developed banking system and virtually non-existent credit markets, such an assertion is just plain silly at present.
Broadly speaking, the authors recognize today's enormous economic imbalances and the potential threat to the U.S. Dollar as the world works toward a new global pecking order, economically. Although China ends up at the top of the list in time, the authors allow for a number of possible paths that get us there; unstable as the path may be at times, it isn't doom and gloom we're promised as a result. This book sees the emergence of Asia broadly speaking as a positive for East and West alike, which is refreshing.
And I'm not the only one who thinks so. The book is quickly receiving high praise, including from the likes of Dr. Marc Faber, who says, "Finally...a book that combines serious analysis with specific investment recommendations... about the world's largest and most powerful economies."
Well said. The Silk Road to Riches is the perfect book for these most interesting economic times in which we live.

Student Tech Team
For the past several years, before 1:1, my school has had a student tech team. We have learned a lot about managing it throughout the years, although we still have a lot more to learn.
In my school, I am one of two tech teachers who helps the other teachers out before we have to call out IT. We do our best to take care of little problems, but were having troubles getting to everything so we call in the student Tech Team.
Every year I hold a meeting for those interested in Tech Team and a lot of kids sign up, but only a handful remain steady. We train these kids in phases.
**Note: Our school is now 1:1 with Acer laptops running the Ubermix. The students have their own WiFi network that is separate from the staff network.**
This year we started just going over the basics: how to connect to the internet, how to troubleshoot a connection or a basic computer error. Once they conquered those we moved on to more difficult tasks such as reimaging a laptop (our student laptops run the Ubermix so reimaging restores original settings), troubleshooting printer errors, and even checking networking errors. My students blow me away with how quickly they catch on and how they're always eager to learn more.
With the school year ending, now when I receive an email request for help I can quickly go over what I want my students to check and look for and they can troubleshoot it before I have to! This has made the turn around time on tech help requests so much faster!
Here are some of the crazy things my students have done this year with Tech Team:
1. At the beginning of the year, one of my 4th grade teachers was having networking issues and her student laptops would just not hold a connection. Two team members went to her room, troubleshooted all of the connections and then found the issue was with the router placement in the room (they knew this just from hearing me talk about it in class from a conference I went to). My girls then disconnected the router, placed it elsewhere in the room, reconnected all the laptops (including the teacher) and the network was up and running again!
2. I received an email about a teacher having an issue with the sound on the projector. I showed my Tech Team member what cords to look for, what buttons to check, and how to check the sound output and then I sent her to the other teacher. My student came back with notes to report what all she checked and the cords that were or were not connected. IT was contacted to check on it further for the missing cords, but the problem was solved within 10 minutes of my Tech Team member going over there.
Tech Team doesn't only troubleshoot and help with problems, they also teach classes!
Currently, two of my girls are working with a 2nd grade class and teaching them how to use their laptops. They have taken the kids through Google Docs, Slides, and Drawing as well as Edmodo and Moby Max. Those little 2nd graders are flying through their technology lessons!
Moral of this story: Do not be afraid to turn over power to your students! I have been amazed at the growth of my Tech Team members. They are starting to learn things on their own because they want to understand more of what is going on with the technology.
Does your school have any type of technology team set up?

When Congress passed the $787 billion recovery package in February, our nation's economy was in its deepest slump since the Great Depression. As an effort to avoid another economic collapse, the President put forward a plan to give our economy an immediate jumpstart and set the nation on the course toward long-term growth. By reinvesting in carefully-targeted programs to improve our infrastructure, education, health care, and technology, Congress and the Administration laid the groundwork to preserve or create 3 to 4 million jobs over the next two years.
Last week Congressman Andrews called a press conference to announce the effects that the Stimulus bill has had on our communities so far. To date, nearly $360 million in Stimulus funds have been allocated to our region by way of grants, direct payments, loans, bonds, and tax cuts. Andrews stated that although only six months have passed since the enactment of the federal stimulus package, there are strong economic indicators that the plan is working locally and helping thousands of families and businesses here in South Jersey.
Among the projects being funded, an $81 million investment for resurfacing and improving Route 295 in Gloucester and Camden Counties is the recovery plan's highest investment in South Jersey. The second largest project is a $25 million initiative geared to clean up hazardous waste material at Gloucester and Camden Cities' Welsbach & General Gas Mantle Sites, where the production of thousands of incandescent lights at the turn of the 20th century has contaminated the soil in local communities. Local school districts have received a near $50 million boost in federal aid to help relieve the strain on their operating budgets and support hiring and capital improvements.
Rep. Andrews stated that while America's economy is still badly broken and millions continue to struggle to meet their needs, recent data has indicated that our economy is showing signs of life. Congressman Andrews cited several economic indicators that point towards exceptional growth over the six moths, crediting the President's recovery package for much of the recent trends. Statistics from the U.S. Department of Labor indicate that about 6,000 more residents of South Jersey found their way back into the workforce since the enactment of the Stimulus bill. Additionally, housing and consumer markets have experienced record growth and it appears that the economy has started a new trajectory. Since the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act was enacted, the average number of foreclosure filings has decreased by over 22%, while home and auto sales appear have increased largely due to the Stimulus bill's tax credits for new purchasers.
While our region's economic recovery will not occur overnight, the Stimulus bill's near $360 million investment in South Jersey has begun to set our region on the course of economic prosperity. Congressman Andrews continues to support legislation like the ARRA that invests federal dollars where they are needed most while working to get our economy back on the course of long-term growth.

We'll help you find the right solution for your needs
Does this sound like your topic?
Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
My husband is currently being charged on the federal level with online solicitation of a minor. From what I understand, the girl was 14. He was arrested on the state level and was released on bond and then 3 days later he was arrested by federal marshalls and has been in prison ever since. His public defender told his mother and I that he was facing 10 years to life in prison. What is the typical sentence for a first time offender in this type of situation? I understand that it will depend on the specific case and details, but I was wondering what the "usual" sentence is, how much of the actual sentence he will have to serve, and if there is any possibility for some type of plea bargain and what that plea bargain may be. Thanks.
Certainly the sentence your husband could receive will be governed by either the statutory penalties associated with the offense or the federal sentencing guidelines. Some offenses of this nature carry mandatory time. Without knowing exactly what section of the US Code your husband has been charged it is difficult to provide more information.
However, if the Federal Public Defender indicates a potential sentence of "10 years to life" then more likely than not he is facing a mandatory minimum sentence.Ask a similar question
I practice in the Corpus Christi federal system but i must review the Indictment in order to explain the potential sentence exposure that your husband is facing. Feel free to contact me through my Avvo.com contact information to discuss this further.Ask a similar question

Dada was an early 20th century art movement that rejected the idea of art movements. It began in Zurich during the first World War as a collaborative effort among painters, writers and dramatists as well as other types of artists. It was motivated by the need to come to terms with the horrors of the war. Dada challenged the prevailing attitudes about art, culture and the legacy of Western rationalism. The Dadaists wanted to subvert the traditional concept of art. In doing so, they saw themselves as liberating human beings from the trappings of an oppressive bourgeois culture.
Social Critique
One of the leading themes and motifs in the Dada movement was social criticism. The Dadaists were inherently political in their motivations. They rejected the modernist conception of the autonomy of art or "art for the art's sake." Art in its various forms -- theater, the visual arts, literature and music -- should present critical perspectives through which to critique society. The Dadaists saw World War I as a logical consequence of bourgeois culture and civilization and its emphasize on rationalism and nationalism. The point of departure for Dada was the rejection of all "isms" as well as all cultural norms, standards and values.
The rejection of cultural standards and values also implied the rejection of "art" as well. The Dadaists saw themselves an an anti-art movement. Two of the primary assumptions of the traditional concept of art are that art work is original and that the truth value of the art work is eternal. Dada undermined both of these assumptions. Dada utilized various types of prefabricated materials, such as photographs, paintings and mass-produced objects in their art works. The emphasis is on the idea as much as the materials that are used. An everyday object is turned into an art by object by placing it an an artistic context. Marcel Duchamp's "Urinal" is one of the most infamous examples of this approach. In regards to the second point, the Dadaists emphasized the fleeting and ephemeral character of the art object. Various types of "happenings" and performance pieces were staged to emphasize this idea.
Shock Value
One way to challenge the prevailing cultural standards and values of bourgeois culture is to intentionally shock and provoke the audience. The Dadaists used shock as a means of challenging the public's sensibility and complacency about the contemporary world. In addition to challenging the rules for art, Dada's intent was to use art to encourage the public to think critically about all rules.
Dada equates rationalism with bourgeois culture, and consequently, as an element for art to reject and overcome. Dada embraced the irrational in a number of ways. It was heavily influenced by Freud's theories of the unconscious. It adopted the Freudian idea of free association as a method for freeing the unconscious from the censoring mechanisms of consciousness. Dada poets and writers use free association as a writing tool. Another approach to subvert conscious control of the the art work was to incorporate chance and randomness in the creation of the art work.

The episode opens with Blair arranging invitations for her birthday party. Meanwhile, Serena visits Colin to talk to him but as they chat the pair stare at each other. She decides to leave and Colin promises her that they can hold out. "Six more weeks," Serena sighs.
Eleanor arrives home and explains that she would never miss throwing Blair a birthday party, even if it is a week early. She explains that it is a shame the event will coincide with Lily and Rufus's anniversary, before giving Blair a present from Cyrus. Blair is thrilled with the gift and goes to get ready to meet Serena. Eleanor suggests that the party will be as glamorous and sophisticated as the guest of honour.
Rufus, Dan and Eric walk along the street and Dan admits that he is trying to avoid his house because Vanessa is back and has to stay because she couldn't get campus housing. He adds that he wanted to help Rufus plan for his anniversary, but Rufus admits that he and Lily have decided to order food in and have a quiet evening. He explains that it doesn't feel right to celebrate without Jenny. He goes to get some flowers for Lily and Dan explains that it would mean a lot to his dad if Jenny could come back for the celebrations. Eric suggests that Chuck could help because he loves Lily and is on their side because of the Chuck-Blair war.
Nate and Serena meet at a restaurant and Chuck and Blair arrive. Serena explains that she and Nate have decided to make the pair sign a peace treaty. Nate adds that if either of them break the agreement, they can no longer be friends with the group. Chuck and Blair agree and begin negotiating various terms. When it comes to access to stripclubs in the Outer Borough, Blair pulls Serena aside and explains that she doesn't want to cede territory too easily. She asks her to reconsider coming to her birthday party but Serena explains that she has to celebrate Lily's anniversary. Blair claims that Serena has a "sex glow" but Serena promises that she is only meeting Colin in office hours and hasn't slept with him. Blair refuses to be an accomplice, and the pair return to the table. Blair slowly pours a glass of water and drinks it, before finally agreeing to cede the stripclubs. She adds that she has one final condition to add in private and dismisses Serena and Nate. Afterwards, Chuck and Blair say goodbye outside and Chuck offers Blair his hand. However, she refuses to shake it because of article 19 of the treaty - no touching. The pair watch each other as they get into their cars.
Dan and Eric find out about the peace treaty talks on Gossip Girl and Eric complains that Chuck and Blair have ended up happier than ever while Jenny and their family are in a pile of rubble. He adds that it is the perfect time for a "stealth strike" but admits that he and Dan wouldn't be able to pull it off. Dan disagrees, explaining that he has picked up some skills while Eric comes from a long line of schemers. Eric insists that they are no match for Chuck and Blair but Dan replies: "I don't know about that."
Juliet is tracking Serena on Gossip Girl and approaches her. She spots that Serena has a book and asks if it is a birthday present for Blair, but Serena admits that it is for a professor. Juliet suggests that Serena has feelings for the professor and she admits that she has a "small crush". However, she insists that nothing is going to happen yet as she won't put her academic future at risk. Juliet suggests that guys won't wait for sex and offers to be there for advice if Serena needs it. Serena thanks her and walks away. When she has left, Serena texts Ben: "She has her eye on a professor." Serena walks over to Colin's house but spots him paying a taxi driver and a woman getting out of the cab. When they are upstairs, Serena rings Colin's bell and he buzzes her up. She drops off the book and asks: "Where is she? I know she's up here." However, Colin introduces the woman as his housekeeper. Serena apologises and explains that she is going "a little crazy". The pair agree that they are both thinking about sex and Serena suggests that they avoid seeing each other outside of class. Colin agrees but reveals that he has been invited to Blair's birthday party. Outside, Serena calls Blair and discovers that she invited the dean and anyone else she favours. Blair points out that Serena isn't coming but Serena explains that Lily's anniversary party has been cancelled. Blair refuses to listen to her worries about Colin and points out that the dean will be at the party.
Eric and Dan are working out a plan to get Jenny back into town. Dan explains that they need to break the truce between Chuck and Blair so that Chuck will be happy to help Jenny. Eric points out that Jack Bass will enrage Chuck and Dan suggests that they pretend Blair had a secret fling with Jack with a Gossip Girl blast. He adds that later he will run into Chuck and ask him to retaliate with an amnesty for Jenny. Later, Dan arrives at the Empire and suggests that because Blair betrayed Chuck, he could betray her by offering Jenny protection. However, Blair arrives and explains that they knew the Gossip Girl blast was fake because they both have enemies. "Besides, Jack Bass wasn't in France, he was in Chile," she adds. Chuck is shocked that she knew that but explains that the incident inspired them to add an addendum to their peace treaty. Dan is surprised that they have a legal document setting out the terms. Blair invites Chuck to her birthday party as a gesture of trust and adds that Dan can come because the "gothic Barbie" is still upstate. Later, Dan finds Nate and discovers that he knows about the treaty. Nate explains that he has been sworn to secrecy and adds that a guard is about to pick up the document. He adds that he doesn't know everything that is in it because Chuck and Blair made him and Serena leave the room. He leaves to go to class, and Dan picks up the treaty.
Serena calls Juliet and admits that she is worried about spending the night in the same room as Colin. Juliet offers to be her "buffer" to distract her all evening and agrees to help. Serena thanks her and Juliet promises that she has put herself in the right hands. Later, Serena finds Nate to warn him that Juliet will be at the event as her buffer. Nate suggests that she take him instead, explaining that it is better to have a guy protect her from another guy. He adds that he would rather not run into Juliet and Serena would be doing him a favour. Serena agrees and calls Juliet to tell her about the change of plans. When she has hung up, Juliet sends a text to Colin: "I need a favour."
Blair is preparing for her party but criticises one of the florists for mixing up gladiolus and cabbage roses. Eleanor arrives and explains that Lily and Rufus will be coming. Blair agrees to think of an anniversary surprise for them and asks about the guest list. Eleanor promises that "anyone who's anyone" will be at the event but warns that she spotted Chuck on the guest list and they don't need any trouble. Blair insists that they are good but Eleanor points out that she has been "berating" the staff all day. Blair explains that she just wants the party to be perfect, but shouts at Dorota when she brings over her dress. She asks what's wrong with her and Dorota explains that she isn't fighting with Chuck, so is fighting with everyone else.
Dan tells Eric about the secret clause in the peace treaty and Eric is shocked that it is not more sensational. Dan suggests that for a "birthday surprise" they just need to make some calls, but Eric is unconvinced. He points out that they shouldn't risk losing everything they have learnt like Jenny and adds: "We tried it, it didn't work. I'm out. I hope you are too." When he leaves, Dan calls someone called Rita. "I'm Dan, Rufus Humphrey's son," he says. "I hope you don't mind me calling. I've got a very good friend with a birthday party tonight and I was hoping I could get your help. Do you still work at Interscope?"
Blair is at her party and greets a number of guests, including the celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe. She meets the dean and thanks her for coming, before impressing her by revealing that she has read one of her papers. The dean suggests that they have lunch together and when she has gone, another guest approaches Blair and says: "The last girl the dean took to lunch became the CEO of Pepsi." Elsewhere, Rufus admits that he would have been happy eating out of a carton but Lily points out that although he thinks he is rock 'n' roll, he is wearing a $2,000 jacket.
Meanwhile, Juliet arrives with Colin and thanks him for getting her in. "I should go before anyone sees us together," she says. Nate overhears the conversation. Serena arrives and asks Nate to distract her from her professor. Juliet appears and suggests that it is nice to see Nate and Serena having such fun together. Nate leaves, and Serena apologises if things are awkward. Juliet explains that she is not worried about Nate but asks where Serena's professor is. Serena refuses to tell her but Juliet points out that if Serena doesn't tell her, she can't protect her from him. Serena is just about to tell her when Eleanor arrives and drags off Juliet to help her with the appetisers. Blair comes over and asks why Serena was talking to Juliet. When she explains, Blair warns that Juliet is not her friend. She leaves and Serena and Colin stare at each other.
Dan comes across Rufus, Eric and Lily and is shocked to see them. He urges them to go home, suggesting that it is unlucky for them to be using china and crystal because paper is linked to the first anniversary. However, Lily and Rufus admit that they are having a good time. When they leave, Dan asks Eric why he didn't warn them that they were coming. Eric is shocked that Dan was hoping to go through with his plan and tells him to stop it before it's too late. Meanwhile, Chuck arrives at the party and compliments Blair, before asking how she knew where Jack was in the summer. Blair claims that she must have read it online but Chuck is unconvinced. Blair leaves to continue "entertaining".
Elsewhere, Nate and Serena chat to someone and Nate explains that it was a good distraction. He spots her staring at someone and tells her to ignore them and recite something they learned at school. She thanks him and Lily and Rufus appear. Nate leaves them and approaches Colin. He asks: "You wouldn't happen to be Ben, would you? I saw you with Juliet and if you're the guy she left me for your name must be Ben." Colin insists that it isn't and Nate apologises. Meanwhile, Serena receives a note from Colin asking her to meet him upstairs. She excuses herself.
Colin pulls Juliet into the kitchen and asks if she has been seeing Ben. Juliet begs him not to talk about it now because they can't be seen together. Meanwhile, Blair finds Nate and explains that she needs a drink. They head towards the kitchen but discover Colin and Juliet talking. Nate claims that Juliet must have broken up with him for Colin and Blair reveals that Serena is dating him too. She leaves to go and warn Serena. Meanwhile, Nate approaches Juliet and explains that if she left him for that guy she can tell him. Juliet explains that Colin is her cousin and the reason they are keeping it a secret is because he's a teacher and she's a student.
Dorota is giving a speech about Blair, who kisses her on the cheek. Suddenly, another woman introduces herself as Rita. "I'd also like to salute the birthday girl," she says. "And I brought some special friends to help me with the toast, or should I say roast?" The musician Robyn arrives and Blair looks concerned. Dan finds Eric and explains that he tried to call Rita but her phone was off, and Eric points out that she is busy. Rita announces that Robyn was able to bring along a special video of Blair and begins playing a tape of Blair drunkenly singing 'Stand By Your Man' in Stockholm. Dan looks on sadly, while Blair yells "no" and tries to run to the front. As she does so, she knocks over Rachel Zoe. Rachel insists that she is fine but as she tries to get up, she tips chocolate sauce all over herself. "I die," she says.
Later, as Robyn performs, Blair asks Rita how she could bring the video. Rita insists that "he said it was a roast" and Blair immediately assumes Chuck was involved. She approaches him and asks why he did it. "Because I knew Jack was in Chile?" she asks. "I found out because I was desperate for news of you. All summer when I was pretending not to care I wanted to know where you were. I paid a private eye to look but the only Bass he got was your scaly uncle." Chuck insists that he had nothing to do with this but Blair accuses him of lying, adding that Serena and Nate had no motive. Dan arrives and admits that he set it up. "My sister doesn't feel safe to live in her own house or be with her parents on their anniversary," he explains. "She was a different person before she met the two of you." Nate points out that this is about Dan getting revenge and complains that he went behind his back to get it. Dan agrees but adds: "They deserve what they get. I'm not sorry." However, Rufus appears and says: "I'm the one who's sorry. I'm sorry you've become one of them."
Upstairs, Serena and Colin meet. Colin admits that he doesn't think he can make it six weeks and Serena suggests that staying away from each other is hard because it's not what they should be doing. "I really want this, but not here," she adds. Meanwhile, Juliet calls Ben and reveals that Serena's professor is their cousin. "He has no idea what we're doing," she says. "If he finds out we lose everything." She adds that she needs Colin because he pays for her school and rent. Ben explains that they need Serena to get caught with her professor - whoever he is - and asks Juliet if she got proof. Juliet admits that she hasn't and adds that Colin has no idea Serena is the one "responsible". "It's because she's responsible that you have to do this," Ben tells her. "It's the only way to make things right, for our family to move home. Please get proof and get Serena expelled."
Blair is sitting in the kitchen after the party and Eleanor hands her the DVD of her singing, explaining that it is Robyn's only copy. Blair admits that she is mortified but Eleanor points out that a good party gives people what they don't expect. Blair admits that seeing Rachel Zoe dipped in chocolate "wasn't boring", but admits that she wants to feel like a powerful woman and feels like a "weak little girl" around Chuck. Eleanor explains that sometimes you have to be weak to let yourself grow stronger. "You don't have to lose the girl to be a woman," she says. "You just need to think about how many people are going to be around next time you let her out."
Lily and Rufus arrive home and Lily points out that it was just a karaoke video and no-one got hurt. Rufus admits that he is worried about Dan and adds that he doesn't want to lose both his children to the Upper East Side. They turn on the lights and discover that the apartment has been filled with paper flowers. Eric explains that it was all Dan's idea and Rufus suggests that there is a "little Humphrey left in that kid". Meanwhile, Dan arrives home to Vanessa and explains that he wrecked Blair's birthday, betrayed Nade and disappointed his dad. He adds that it was Blair's 20th birthday party but he is still acting like an eighth grader. Vanessa tells him he just needs rest and some time in Brooklyn. Dan thanks her for being there and she explains: "We've been friends forever - that's not going to change." Dan's phone rings and he picks it up, apologising to his father. However, his dad explains that he liked the flowers.
Serena and Colin arrive at Colin's apartment but Serena admits that she likes him too much to go further right now. "The old me would have gone further," she says. "The new me wants to wait." Colin explains that he likes the new Serena and says that it is good they stopped themselves before they messed everything up. They kiss, but Juliet watches the window from outside. "Something to look forward to," Serena smiles, and leaves.
The episode ends when Blair begins turning out the lights in her home. She spots Chuck and asks what he is still doing there. "I wanted to let you know the treaty is over," he says. Blair admits that the "pretence of civility was exhausting", while Chuck explains that friends have to like each other. "After what happened tonight I could never like you," he adds. The pair both say that they hate each other. "So it's settled," Blair says, and Chuck replies: "We're settled." He tears up the treaty before grabbing her face. He kisses her roughly and pulls her onto a table, where they have sex.

Liesl lives in a tiny attic bedroom, locked away by her cruel stepmother. Her only friends are the shadows and the mice—until one night a ghost appears from the darkness. It is Po, who comes from the Other Side. Both Liesl and Po are lonely, but together they are less alone.
That same night, an alchemist's apprentice, Will, bungles an important delivery. He accidentally switches a box containing the most powerful magic in the world with one containing something decidedly less remarkable
Will's mistake has tremendous consequences for Liesl and Po, and it draws the three of them together on an extraordinary journey.
From New York Times bestselling author Lauren Oliver comes a luminous and magnificent novel that glows with rare magic, ghostly wonders, and a true friendship that lights even the darkest of places.
Goodreads Summary
The cover is very eye-catching, perfect for the age group this book was designed for. The cover is just the beginning of what is to come in this very good book.
Liesl doesn't have the best life at all. She is locked in the attic by her stepmother, her father recently died. She doesn't get to go outside and she doesn't get to see and feel the sunshine often at all. However, even in the attic she attracts attention. Will is an orphaned alchemist's apprentice who sees and likes her face in the attic window. He will become an important character in the story. Liesl's only respite is to draw; her drawings gain the attention of Po and Bundle, dark ghosts.
Liesl's father was cremated upon his death, Liesl holds his ashes dear. Will accidentally mixes up the alchemist's extremely good potion into Liesl's father's ashes. Ashamed at his mistake, Will runs away. Liesl finally decides it is time to bury her father's ashes and takes off to find the perfect place with Po and Bundle accompanying her. Both Liesl and Will find each other in a lucky fluke, both are on the run. From this point on, the novel takes off.
The characters are very well-developed, the plot is fun to read about and inventive, and the events are fast-paced. Liesl will appeal to younger girls while Will's character will appeal to younger boys...the plot will appeal to both girls and boys. Liesl is caring, a little impulsive, and sweet while Will is rougher, very impulsive, and lonely. The only quality that would make this novel better would be reading the novel in the first person, the novel is told in the third. This book is recommended to teens/preteens who enjoy fantasy.
4 Stars

We've been dating for about 6 months now. I'm his first girlfriend. Me and his little sister were at his soccer practice after school which we were waiting for his aunt to pick us up and it felt awkward to me...being around all of them. He doesn't really have that many friends but i guess yes on his soccer team. His teammate was getting dressed and he took off some of his things which my boyfriend i guess jokingly said "C'mon Tyler my girlfriend and sister are here." He laughed and said sorry and we were giggling. It felt awkward and good that he said i was his girlfriend. His teammate told us to look away lol. I don't know my boyfriend acted different...he wouldn't that much pay attention to me...he got dressed and he sat 2 seats down from me watching his soccer teammates practice then he later started practicing as well. I just feel like he doesn't like me anymore. This is the first time i've been at his practice. His teammates don't know me nor do i know them. It was just awkward...what are signs he's losing interest? I mean he asked me if i still wanted to go to prom which we've talked about it weeks or month ago. He brought money incase...
Most Helpful Guy
I'd imagine it's also awkward for him. It always is when you're hanging out with two people or groups of people who you know well, but they don't know each other... I mean, even that sentence was awkward! He might also have just been preoccupied with practice and trying not to be too distracted. It's the first time you've been to one so you wouldn't be familiar with how he acts at practice or where his head might be at. It might seem strange but people conduct themselves different when in different circles.
I wouldn't worry. He verbally acknowledged you as being his girlfriend in front of somebody else. I have always heard that is a very good sign; he's proud of having you! No wonder it feels good when a s/o does that.11|00|0

A/N: Usually, I like some kind of unifiying cosmology in my crossover fics, a way to explain everything. Why Series A is in the same world as Series B.
But sometimes you just got to throw two series together and see what happens. Still, I despise not working without at least 1 definite timeline, so put this somewhere after Dresden Files book 10 but before 11. Negima-wise, it can be any old when.
This is higher on the crack-o-meter than Raikiri Triken. You have been warned.
When Wizards Meet.
by Shadow Crystal Mage
Chapter 1: In Which There Is No Explanation How This Happened
Disclaimer: The Dresden Files belongs to Jim butcher. Sci Fi (now Scyfy) are geniuses to have managed to ruin it. Negima belongs to Ken Akamatsu. Everyone loves wizards!
Harry Dresden, the group of Wardens with him, and the Senior council stared at the scene of devastation around them. They were all pretty familiar with scenes of devastation. The 'full-scale' part of the war against the Red Court wasn't that long ago, and Harry had the nasty ability to find himself in the middle of such scenes but even for him and the battle-hardened men and women around him, this was a new one. There were a lot of ghouls in this one. Not the superghouls that had been in the Raith Deeps, thank goodness, just the regular garden variety ghouls, but still nasty.
They'd all been slaughtered. And for once, Harry had nothing to do with it.
It had all been the figure in the tan, hooded robe with the tall staff. It had to be a midget. Harry hoped it was the midget. Because the alternative…
Then the figure turned, pulling back its hood as every member of the White Council, Harry included, trained various destructive foci at it, and Harry knew there was no such luck. It was a kid, looking about ten or eleven, with dark red hair. He blinked at them in surprise, as if he hadn't known they were there, then bowed deeply towards them, then looked chagrined as he straightened. "Sorry, force of habit. My name is Negi Springfield, and I seem to be a little lost. Are you mages?"
- To be continued...
A/N: Random drably crack concerning two of my four favorite wizards. The other two are Raistling Majere and the other Harry, if you must know.
Please review, C&C welcome.
Until next time, this is Shadow, signing off.

ChaletOS, a beautiful, lightweight Linux distribution you should try
I haven't download nor install this ChaletOS distribution but from many screenshots on its official website or from Google+ page, ChaletOS offers a familiar look of Operating System. Like or dislike, ChaletOS has similar look to Windows operating system, better actually.
