And here is that statement from Team Rangel, in full:
New York, NY - Congressman Charles B. Rangel issued the following release after he was declared winner of the Democratic primary election for New York's 13th congressional district:
"Words cannot describe my overwhelming gratitude to the voters of the 13th congressional district of our great State for standing with me to the very end and giving this veteran his one last fight. I am grateful for this special privilege to continue serving my beloved community and friends, both my dearest old friends in Upper Manhattan and new ones in the Bronx, whom I have had the greatest honor of representing in Congress. I've got a lot of fight in me and will not let them down.
I hope to begin the healing process of some of division that was created during the course of the campaign, and am looking forward to working together with all of my constituents and community leaders on improving the lives of everyone living in Harlem, El Barrio, Washington Heights, Inwood and the Bronx.
Special thanks go out to all my supporters, staff, and volunteers who helped carry me through. Thank you for your continued friendship and unwavering faith in me. I'm proud of having been in the ring together.
Fired up and ready to go!"by Celeste Katz

Thanks for staying with us on this wild ride... our full recap is on its way!by Celeste Katz
Rep. Charles Rangel celebrates Tuesday night. Image: Bryan PaceHere's the top of our big wrap story on tonight's amazing primary:Rep. Charles Rangel, the Lion of Harlem, roared one last time Tuesday night, beating back a fierce challenge from state Sen. Adriano Espaillat to win a 23rd and final term in Congress.With 100% of the precincts reporting, Rangel had 47.4% of the vote to 43.6% for Espaillat, a margin of about 1,800 ballots in the 13th District Democratic Primary.The victory allows Rangel, 84, the face of Harlem politics for nearly a half century and at one time the most powerful elected black official in the country, to end his political career on his own terms.He declared victory on his own terms as well.Against the counsel of his political advisers, he took the stage at his election night party at 11:15 p.m. as the votes were still being counted, and spent 47 minutes speaking to supporters in an unscripted soliloquy."Most of you don't remember what happened to Dewey when he declared victory — so I don't want to do that," he said at one point, referring to Gov. Thomas E. Dewey's oh-so-close loss to Harry Truman in the 1948 Presidential race.About 35 minutes later, at 11:50 p.m., NY-1 declared Rangel the winner — and he claimed victory as well. The sound system that had played "I Will Survive" earlier in the night suddenly blared "Happy" by Pharrell."This was our victory. This is your congressman. And you can rest assured all I will be doing is thinking about you and bringing these resources home."With no Republican on the ballot in November, Rangel is almost guaranteed to return to Washington in January...by Celeste Katz

Every day, walking around the city, I see people wearing The Wrong Jeans. And every day, I want to pull them aside gently and say, "just because you can wear them doesn't mean you should." I see rhinestones on 60-year-old women, way-too-skinny jeans on curvy women, acid washing and distressing on the most unflattering parts of the body, tiny butt pockets... it hurts me, physically, to see people wear such bad jeans. Hence the existence of this blog post.
A good, flattering pair of jeans should be a staple in everyone's wardrobe. No question. But there is a reason for all the different cuts, shapes and sizes - each one works better on a certain body shape. So the first step, to know what jeans you should be wearing, is to figure out your body shape.
Now that you've determined which inanimate object your body most closely resembles (I am an hourglass-rectangle hybrid), please review the different denim shapes available to you.
Okay, here we go!
- Opt for a mid-rise, hitting somewhere around your bellybutton.
- Avoid skinny and super-skinny cuts; your jeans should go straight down from your knee, not taper inward to the ankle.
- Also avoid very high-waisted pants, which will make you look disproportionate and unbalanced.
- Keep in mind that your denim waistband should not terminate at the widest part of your hips.
- Opt for a slightly more structured/rigid denim to keep you shaped and curved in all the right places. Avoid those super-stretchy, jegging-like jeans.
- Dark wash is slimming! If you're self-conscious about your hips, don't wear jeans with details, distressing or fading around the top; if you're self-conscious about your thighs, don't wear jeans with fading around the thighs, etc., etc.
- The best jeans for the pear-shaped body type is boot cut or straight leg. Note: Straight leg does not equal skinny.
- Be wary of flared or very flared jeans - instead of looking natural and flattering, it can add strange proportion or make you look like a big cylinder. That said, flared jeans can definitely work - but make sure they doesn't leave you looking visually unbalanced.
- Stay away from very high-waisted pants!
- Big booty? Opt for larger pockets. The smaller the rear pockets are, the bigger your butt is going to look.
- Bit of a tummy? Go for a mid-rise - it should hit right below your bellybutton. And make sure the rear of the jeans is slightly higher than the front, to reign in all problem areas.
- As I mentioned above: Dark wash is slimming! If you're self-conscious about your hips, don't wear jeans with details, distressing or fading around the top; if you're self-conscious about your thighs, don't wear jeans with fading around the thighs, etc., etc.
- If you are curvy with a small waist, you have the best figure for high-waisted jeans, which will accentuate all the right places.
- Skinnies are also very flattering, and elongate your legs while showing off your curves.
- Opt out of a very low-rise, which can show off a little too much when you sit down or bend over.
- Let them be tight! Your bod was made for jeans; wear the right ones and your body will make its own curves.
Lucky you, Ms. Rectangle - you can get away with almost all cuts and shapes!
- Most flattering - slim, fitted denim with a little bit of stretch.
- High-waisted jeans make your legs go on for days.
- Little lacking in the badonk department? Try jeans with slightly smaller pockets than normal.

Look, we're not thrilled with this photo, either.
When we're promised a new picture of David Beckham, we expect to see the soccer star naked on a rock in the desert. If a desert is not immediately available, we will settle for Beckham naked in a bathtub, as long as there's nothing silly like water in there.
Still, if Beckham must wear clothes—even though he shouldn't—we're happy when he chooses a suit. The only British guy who currently rocks a suit better is Daniel Craig, or maybe Benedict Cumberbatch.
Our point: When we spotted this shot of Mr. Victoria Beckham working the red carpet at the opening celebration for Time Warner Cable SportsNet, we were mildly pleased.
Pleased to see him in a suit. And really, really pleased that Victoria was AWOL for the evening. Hey, girls can dream, can't they?

By Chris Schweizer
216 pages, black and white
Published by Oni Press
One of my favorite graphic novels of 2008 was Chris Schweizer's Crogan's Vengeance, the first in a proposed series of stories about various ancestors of the Crogan family tree over the years. Schweizer's story of pirates and high-seas adventure hit all the right notes for me, and since then I've been looking forward to seeing if he could capture that lightning in the bottle a second time with Crogan's March. What I found was a book that takes everything I liked about the earlier volume, and then improves on it. Now that's something you don't see every day.
Crogan's March takes place in 1912, letting us meet Peter Crogan, member of the French Foreign Legion stationed in North Africa. At first it seems like a standard story with this kind of setting; Crogan has just a short time left on his five-year tour of duty, the troop is full of all sorts of characters, they're generally disliked by the locals. And honestly, if that was all that Crogan's March brought to the table, I'm sure that I would have enjoyed the end result if perhaps forgotten about it a few months later. The thing is, though, Crogan's March early on begins to take a different route than I was expecting. The book opens with a member of the troop going missing in action after a horrific two-day sandstorm, and things never really improve from that point on for Crogan and company. This isn't a story where everyone stops and realizes how great each other is and starts giving out big hugs; instead, this is a grim setting with some admittedly entertaining characters who are going to be lucky to make it out alive.
The end result is a curious mix of fun and deadly serious. We can get a bit of story where the soldiers sell their undergarments to make money to buy booze (only to realize the next morning that it might not have been the wisest of decisions thanks to scratchy pants), and then switch over to a raid that has the cheerful local boy kidnapped and hauled away to presumably a life of hardship and slavery. It's a deliberate storytelling device on the part of Schweizer, letting us see how the members of the legion try to combat the nature of where they are, as well as giving the darker and more dramatic moments of the story additional heft. Even then, though, the book takes a huge turn at the halfway point, and I was startled enough at that point to momentarily put the book down and deliberately take myself out of the reading process to fully digest what had just happened.
Schweizer's art helps carry the punch of this story; just like the script, on some page it's cartoonish and funny, while others show off Schweizer's skills in a more violent, tougher manner. Like Crogan's Vengeance, I found the big fight scenes easy to follow, or at least when that was supposed to be the case. There are some moments in Crogan's March where chaos breaks out and it's drawn to be deliberately confusing, mirroring what Crogan and company are going through. It's that use of perspective that keeps cropping up throughout the book; we "see" what's happening through a focus on Crogan, so moments in a cave are handled by the use of sound effects moving across black panels, and shadows shift and move across the pages excellently. The one thing that did take me by surprise was his depiction of the North African cityscapes, which are beautiful; it felt like a big leap forward for Schweizer, and it makes me that much more eager to see the next book.
Crogan's March, with its grimmer and more complex plot, stood out for me as something stronger than its predecessor. While I'd have been satisfied with all the Crogan books being primarily light-hearted and fun, knowing that Schweizer can stretch his legs to hit all different sorts of moods and styles makes me that much more interested in what is still to come. Published in an inexpensive but beautifully designed hardcover, Crogan's March is an irresistible book. After Crogan's Vengeance, I was looking forward to Crogan's March. Now that I've read Crogan's March, I'm dying to see 2011's Crogan's Loyalty. This is a series that I'm going to be enjoying for a very, very long time.

Britain's hidden alcoholics?
Page 1 of 4
A Panorama film tonight will focus on the real problems of Britain's drink problem. Interestingly, it will not focus on the teenage binge drinking that we are all aware of but instead the 'hidden alcoholics', those adults who drink large quantities at home. Figures show that since 1970, wine consumption has increased 5 fold with 85% of wine consumed now being bought in supermarkets and 50% of all beer consumed done in the home also.
So what can be done about this alarming trend? Do you feel that you drink more than you should because it is now cheaper and more acceptable to drink indoors? Do you think that you would drink less if it was done infront of your friends i.e. in a pub or restaurant? Does the smoking ban affect the amount of booze consumed in pubs?

I prefer having a glass of wine at home to be honest, pub prices are ridiculous. The issue is that people still think that 1 glass = 1 unit. One 250 ml glass of wine can have over 4 units of alcohol.
From the states I see some people in when I do go to a pub I don't think many people drink less when they are out, the complete opposite.
I don't smoke but the smoking ban has affected a lot of pubs where I am. Drinking large quantities of alcohol doesn't necessarily mean someone is an alcoholic either, it's an outdated term and one I don't care for personally.
There's more to dependency on a substance than how often you consume it, lots of factors make addiction.

This is not a new issue - my first wife left a quite well paid job as an off-licence manageress for the local co-op supermarket, back in the early 70's because she worried about the number of (mainly women) who were buying wine and sherry on a daily basis.

I don't see what's alarming about it. Pubs are disappearing so people are drinking at home...simple. It's just alarmist nonsense from namby pambys who wanna inflict their uptight morals on everyone else...fcuk em!

The potential problem with drinking at home is that it becomes a habit. I know lots of people who never used to drink in the house (eg pre kids coming along) then maybe had a few at weekend , then on a weeknight and then suddenly and scarily every night in some cases. I definitely used to drink way too much in the house - a habit not an addiction - but I've stopped it completely now and only drink with pals or on nights out.

Alcohol consumption overall has gone down.
The smoking ban along side the main brewing and pub owning companies insisting on keeping their profit margins plus the increase in Excise and VAT has put paid to as many as 1 in four pubs and local orders banning drinking in the streets in controlled areas. Where else are people able to drink to escape these austere times but in their homes (if they haven't repossessed them yet)?

But that only applies if you buy the alcohol in the first place surely? I understand what you mean about habit but I totally agree that too many people are being labelled as alcoholic when they are nothing of the sort. The fact is, many wine or spirit bottles aren't labelled with units, some are though. We fool ourselves into thinking 1 glass = 1 unit. Maybe 20 years ago standard wine glasses were 125 or 175. Wine is also getting stronger, it's rare that you see bottles of 8 and 9 per cent, more like 12 and 13.
The reason I am wary of slapping anyone with a label is that I worked with people for a long time who are truly alcohol dependent. Marriages ruined, thousands of pounds of redundancy spent, 6 months off drink and 6 on and when its on its a bottle of spirits a day.
I absolutely agree that there are people who weekend binge drink and that also has the potential for issues. But when you see the effects of long term alcohol abuse on people and then the media then hypes up the fact that if you have a couple of glasses of wine a night you are on the slippery slope to alcohol dependence, I think that's nonsense.
Yes as a nation we probably drink way too much but we have an attitude to alcohol that a lot of European countries don't. I'm sure lots of people have gone through phases where they drink too much but it's recognising that and doing something about it.
Id rather be in the house with a glass of wine than be out in a pub where people are necking cheap booze and no, not everyone consumes alcohol like that, but the biggest pub in my area is a Wetherspoon and some people are in there from opening time to shutting time, not always young people either.
Real alcohol dependence is awful, if you can take or leave alcohol and recognise when you are drinking too much and do something about it, you don't have a lot to worry about.

My aunt always used to say "You're not an alcoholic till you drink your wine in a teacup so the neighbours don't see" ...
Alcoholism has been hidden for years, it's definately something that needs to be looked at but I'm not sure if this program is coming from the right angle.

i just wish they would make up their minds, i mean if a person drinks a few cans in the house after work or what ever then they are an alcoholic .... if the person stops drinking in the house and goes to the pub just once and has more then 5 pints then labeled a binge drinker!!
it so makes me laugh when labels are dished out to every one, the press love it and the general public lap it up to the hearts content .... usually to have a go at someone else.
edit, i find it interesting on why people mention wine as an indicator, either way as to say only wine or the amount of units in wine.
look at this another way, two people are walking down the street one has a bottle of wine and the other has cheap strong cider .... which one is perceived to be the alcoholic?

What utter useless garbage Panorama are showing these days. Its not like we are not aware of this, i had a friend who was a true alcoholic at home and out.
If your drinking harder things than wine and so on at home daily..then worry.
Also Americans are so bloody high and mighty with their morals. Anyone who has a drink is guilty of being trash..Annoying people over there..

Good topic!
I don't think cost or the smoking ban in pubs has had a lot of effect on the 'habit' of many people who drink at home. On a personal note, I always used to crack a tin as some as I got in from work; habit or addition?
Since I've changed my lifestyle, especially after spending time in a country where alcohol is considered essential to masculinity, booze has become an entity to partake when deemed pleasurable and not a neccessity. A 600ml bottle of good beer is about 30p in China (4 for £1) so a great excuse to get p!ssed if your that way inclined! Certainly not a nation of alcoholics but they do enjoy socialising outside and rarely indulge in the confines of their own home.
I honestly believe that the word 'alcoholic' is a generalisation of many men and women who lead a lifestyle considered to be stressful and a few beers etc just takes the edge off the pressures of life. Nothing wrong with that .... in moderation.
BTW, what's wrong in drinking wine in a coffee mug?

I certainly would drink more out if it were cheaper to be honest. The cheapest large glass of wine in the pub near where I live is £2.85 a glass and that is in Wetherspoons and compared to a lot of other pubs both here and elsewhere in the UK that is fantastic, but you can buy a bottle of white wine in Aldi for £2.99.
Can you really blame people while we are in the midst of a recession who want to have a drink and choose to do so at home?
Also, I live in a medium sized town that has a fair amount of pubs but there's hardly one Id want to set foot in for one reason or another. The Wetherspoon is the best of a bad lot and yes it sells cheap drink, but it's mobbed as you might imagine a lot of the time, it's also freezing, for a company who are minted they certainly know how to keep their pubs cold.
In an ideal world we would all be able to stop off at ye olde lovely pub with a roaring coal fire to sit and have a meal and a few drinks with friends of an evening but when you live in hicksville that's not an option.
I don't drink at home because I'm a secret drinker with an alcohol issue, I do it because I'm broke and there are hardly any decent places in this town to drink in. But that isn't what programmes like Panorama want to hear.

The only alarming trend going round nowadays is for the government and so-called experts to keep telling us that EVERYTHING we do is wrong and we are all going to die because of it.
We are all going to die anyway, so all the experts and the government can kiss my ass.
In a nutshell, alcohol becomes a problem when you find you cant say no, to a drink.
If I want a drink, it's because I like that drink and I am watching telly and life is good. At least I am not down the pub, completely smashed and trying to take on the world in a fight.

Why should we care? I don't have a drinking problem, why should my access to alcohol be limited because someone else has chosen to develop a problem? All such moralistic price hikes, restrictions and sin taxes impinge personal freedom and the economy.

Does the smoking ban affect the amount of booze consumed in pubs?
Of course it does, people have realised that drinking at home is cheaper and they can have a fag with that drink, without breaking the law.
The effect has been a reduction in the number of "rough" people who go out drinking and starting fights, they'd rather sit at home with the 4 pack of special brew and the pack of fags that we all buy for them.... But it's also heavily impacted bars/pubs, to the point where now they have to turn into restaurants or go out of business.
However this topic is really referring to this:
Which is a different kettle of frogs altogether.......

Why do people say that they are social drinkers when all they do is drink on their own in the house, it seems thats what most people tend to do. If your drinking at home on your own on a regular basis there is something wrong with that in my book.

How do you know that's what most people tend to do? I do go out, I just don't have the cash to spend £20 in the pub of an evening. Would it make a difference if I had twenty of my mates round and install a fruit machine in my living room?
I've just made a choice not to pay pub prices because I can't afford it. Last night my mum was at mine, I cooked her a meal and we had a glass of wine. We could have gone a mile up the road, done the same thing in a pub/restaurant and spent £20 rather than about £5.
Ive better things to do than spend what little disposable income I have spending it in the pub. It makes no difference as to whether I am sociable or not, the activities I do are ones where drink isn't an option.

I'm not justifying my drinking habits to a complete stranger. I responded to your comment. I'm actually a qualified drug and alcohol worker and I worked with addicts, both alcohol and drugs for almost 20 years. There are some people who work in that line of work who are recovering addicts, I'm not. But as I said earlier on in the thread, Ive worked with people whose lives have been destroyed and totally destroyed by drink. Someone sitting in the house with a glass of wine of an evening isn't an automatic slippery slope to alcohol dependency, particularly when it seems to be acceptable to get pissed up in the pub. I'm just not sure what the difference is. Having a drink on your own isn't ok, getting tanked up in the pub is ok? As long as people keep an eye on their alcohol intake and have a couple of alcohol free days a week they aren't going to suffer any adverse affects. Whether that be at home or in the pub. Maybe its just a stereotype of people sitting drowning their sorrows at home as they are lonely with no mates, rather than being in the pub sitting with all their pals downing shots of absinthe, who knows?
Im now a gym instructor and most of my social life revolves around fitness. My point was that financial reasons keep me out of the pub, not that I'd be propping up the bar every night even if I had the money. Some people might spend £100 on alcohol in the space of a weekend, I don't spend that in a month. Or two.
I found your previous comment
Why do people say that they are social drinkers when all they do is drink on their own in the house, it seems thats what most people tend to do. If your drinking at home on your own on a regular basis there is something wrong with that in my book.
Rather judgemental and more than a bit inaccurate, that was all.
But it's ok, because this one topped it

Thanks a lot, I feel so much more reassured now

Britain's hidden alcoholics? Is that a joke? You've only got to get on a plane and go to places like Ibiza and they're out there in full strength... and there was enough of them throwing up around Covent Garden the other night too.
I for one like a tipple indoors but I don't have an addictive personality and I am measured about how much I drink.... most of the time. I reckon as a nation we are getting hooked on all sorts of substances in order to make life more bearable in what some people see as a difficult climate. A good cure might be to send them off to some of the worst hit famine areas in the world and then they might come back and count their blessings... although I wouldn't put money on it.

The real extent of drinking is vast. Look at ladies profiles. ''Watch a DVD with a glass of wine.'' So wonder what they would say if I put on mine ''Watch a DVD with a 6 pack of carlsberg'' !!
Before anyone critisises me and my comments read the following.
I dated a lovely lady. We became great friends. She never drank when she was with me.
One Sunday morning she called drunk out of her skull at 10 in the morning. I told her to pour whatever down the sink and go to bed.
I turned up at 9 in the evening. Still out of her mind. I called paramedics.
2 weeks later she was found dead surrounded by bottles by her kids. 54 years old.
I found out that she was a raving alcoholic and they are excellent at hiding it.
That really really floored me for a long time.
I date women who have a bottle of wine before I turn up, a bottle when we are out and when we get back open the 4 pint carton.
Lambrusco at £3 a bottle, 2 bottles for a £5 both at our local supermarket. In the morning..ie 10ish there are women with a few groceries, a bottle of wine or even a bottle of spirit. A whole isle of our local supermarket is devoted to booze. If there wasn't a market that would not be an economic use of shop space.
You do see on some profiles ''put this on your profile if you know of someone who died of cancer'' Ive never read a similar one ''died from drinking'' .

Lots of men have on their profiles that they like to snuggle up with a dvd and a bottle of wine. How has this thread become one about women who drink too much? Do men not have the same issue or is it ok for a man to buy lager at 10 am?

Problem solving for community organisations
20 March 2013
Jasper is a Client Manager for LV's social impact volunteer program and, although now fully retired is actually doing three unpaid roles. His volunteering began three and half years ago, through Greatconnections, when he was semi retired and he was looking to become a board member for a Not for Profit. He found the board job and this continues to be one of the 'jobs' that he still does.
His volunteering evolved and he became a Client Manager a year later. "The role is very rewarding as you work with a variety of community organisations that you have an affinity with. You choose the organisations and get to know them, their issues and needs and then match a skilled volunteer to fill a gap," comments Jasper.
The Client Manager becomes a problem solver for the organisation drilling down to find out what is needed to resolve an issue. As a GC client the community organisation is able to have three projects throughout the year ranging from having a mentor, director or specific support such as website redevelopment or HR. The pool of talented volunteers is then searched until a match found by the Client Manager.
"Matching the right skills to the organisation is the most challenging part of a project because if you get this right then it is really satisfying for the community organisation as well as the volunteer," adds Jasper.
Jasper then attends the first meeting between the community organisation and the volunteer to ensure that the expectations of each party is as the project plan in terms of time, skills and goals. He will then monitor the project on a regular basis ensuring that any problems are ironed out quickly.
LV's social impact team is looking for more client managers, so if you are wanting a new challenge please contact Sunita Varlamos email: email@example.com

The TurnSeries: The Hollows #.1
by Kim Harrison
Published by Simon & Schuster, Gallery Books on February 7th 2017
Genres: Urban Fantasy
Pages: 448
Format: eARC
I received this book for free from the Publisher in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
Can science save us when all else fails?
Trisk and her hated rival, Kalamack, have the same goal: save their species from extinction.
Death comes in the guise of hope when a genetically modified tomato created to feed the world combines with the government's new tactical virus, giving it an unexpected host and a mode of transport. Plague takes the world, giving the paranormal species an uncomfortable choice to stay hidden and allow humanity to die, or to show themselves in a bid to save them.
Under accusations of scientific misconduct, Trisk and Kal flee across a plague torn United States to convince leaders of the major paranormal species to save their supposedly weaker kin, but not everyone thinks humanity should be saved.
Kal surreptitiously works against her as Trisk fights the prejudices of two societies to prove that not only does humanity have something to offer, but that long-accepted beliefs against women, dark magic, and humanity itself can turn to understanding; that when people are at their worst that the best show their true strength, and that love can hold the world together as a new balance is found.
Don't shoot me but I haven't read the final book in The Hollows series.
I blame it on two things. The first is I have an irrational fear of reading last books in a series for fear of being disappointed with the very last hurrah. Second, I got a wee bit burned-out on The Hollows. I've read the entire series (save the last book), some books more than once, cried my eyes out for a month after book #5, I've attended 7 book signings and bought many t-shirts to be in the "family" photos. I've got waaaaaay too much swag, too 😉 To say I was reluctant to hop back into The Hollows world is an understatement.
I am an idiot…
As soon as I started reading The Turn I was hooked and sunk. I quickly realized how much I missed Kim Harrison's writing, both The Hollows world itself and Ms. Harrison's style.
The Turn takes readers literally back to "The Turn", to the moment in history when some of the paranormal species came out of hiding to save humanity. Ms. Harrison shares the story of how one genetically modified tomato could almost destroy the human population on Earth. As readers of The Hollows series, we always knew it was the T4 Angel tomato, but we never knew who made the tomato or what exactly happened.
I'm so glad I got over my stupidness because learning what I did and how it fit into the rest of the series literally BLEW MY MIND. We were introduced to characters that were only previously referred to and supporting characters we've met before but we didn't know much they played a part in the "history" nor did we know their entire backstory. Seeing characters like Quen and Rynn Cormel early in their careers was mind blowingly exciting. Can you tell I was excited to read this story?!?!
I think the synopsis sets up the story well enough. I will comment and say that it is a little misleading so don't expect the story to go exactly as the synopsis says it does 😉 There is a lot of exciting conflict and action that keeps the reader engaged throughout the entire story. There were moments I was on the verge of tears and moments when I needed to smack a certain toe-headed elf upside his head. By the end of the story, if you're a Hollows fan, you'll quickly realize that some of the "facts" you thought were true in "previous" Hollows books may not exactly be true. ∗mind blown∗
IMHO, I suggest that this book should be read AFTER reading the other Hollows books. Oh, you could read this one on it's own. But the reader would miss about 50% of the mind-blowing greatness that makes up this story and the characters that we meet along the way. Damn it to the Turn, just do what I say!

The Last Empire is Gore Vidal's ninth collection of essays in the course of his distinguished literary career. Vidal displays unparalleled range and inimitable style as he offers incisive observations about terrorism, civil liberties, the CIA, Al Gore, Tony Blair, and the Clintons, interwoven with a rich tapestry of personal anecdote, critical insight, and historical detail. Written between the first presidential campaign of Bill Clinton and the electoral crisis of 2000, The Last Empire is a sweeping coda to the still-existing conflicted vision of the American dream.
©2001 Gore Vidal (P)2001, 2016 New Millennium Entertainment, Phoenix Books
Should be required reading for anyone interested in postwar USA . Vidal brilliantly disects American imperial policy with wit, anger and clarity
"Collection a reminder of what patriotism truly is"
The late great Gore Vidal was one of America's finest intellects. In his novels, his plays, and his essays he consistently demonstrated his genius. But be forewarned, he is not for the faint of heart or easily offended. Vidal relished skewering the hypocrites and the vandals who he saw destroying America from within. That is why I call him one of the most patriotic intellectuals of the 20th and 21st centuries. Whether it's our prudish sexual mores or our love of the military industrial complex, Vidal was there to point it out.
Like many Americans, I have been sickened by the ugliness of American political scene of the last few decades. Conservatives and liberals continue to throw muck at one another and because we are so divided we gleefully egg them on. Vidal saw that which probably is part of his decision to live overseas. Still, his writing is stimulating--occasionally outrageous, frequently annoying, but always witty and provocative. And considering the popularity of the musical "Hamilton", it's hopefully not too long before Vidal's masterful novel, "Burr", becomes available on Audible. Along with all his other novels (only 2 of his novels are currently available)!
"Good work poorly read"
I could not listen to it again and in fact could not finish it due to the lacerating boredom invoked by the narrator, mired in a seeming quandery of ill timed mispronunciations with a voice lacking resonance, timbre or it seems, any understanding of his subject.
Vidal needs no review as few writers can incise the heart of an issue with the delicacy of the surgeon and then bludgeon it with language as he does.
The lack of timing, inflection and any resonance coupled with mispronunciations made it impossible to sit through.

Besides my education, my favorite thing about my time at Liberty is the people that I met there. One of those people is Kayla, or Kays, or "love monkey" (it's a long story… don't ask). I met Kayla my first day at Liberty because she lived across the hall and one door to the left from me. We quickly bonded over our New Testament class with Dr. Love through our use of RIDICULOUS hand-motions to memorize themes for each NT book. Yeah, we were super cool.
I remember the day she told me about a guy back home that she liked and had been praying for for years. In March 2008 of that same school year, Kayla & Ben began dating. The next fall I had my very first, official, but unpaid photoshoot. I can't remember if I asked them if I could take some pictures or if they asked me. Either way, this was one of the very first pictures I remember being proud of… One that inspired me to take more.
No, your eyes are not fooling you. That is the font 'scriptina' in hot pink. Yes, I am ashamed. And you're probably thinking, "What is so great about that picture?" Well, for a girl who had just gotten a DSLR and had only messed around with it in the dorm prior to this, I thought I did pretty good. And I dubbed this picture the "Crest Whitestrips" picture. In July 2009, Kayla & Ben, or "Bayla", got engaged and set a date for January 9, 2010. That fall, I got to shoot their engagement session…
Yep, there's that horrid "logo" again. Bayla, ya'll have been and will always be beautiful, but I think its safe to say that the world can rejoice knowing that my editing style, or lack thereof, has completely changed.
Well, the exciting news is that Kayla and Ben are expecting their first little baby any day now. (Kays is obviously hoping sooner than later.) I know that baby Levi is going to be one of the most loved little boys on the face of the planet, and I have no doubt that Ben and Kayla will be incredible parents… They are truly some of the godliest people I know. I am so glad that I was able to capture some pictures of Kayla while she was carrying little Levi, and I really can't wait to snap some pictures of the little love monkey when he makes his grand entrance to the world. :)
Kayla is one of those people who doesn't look pregnant from the back… I realize that I can't really relate, but I think its safe that my future self would scream "NOT FAIR!" Seriously… She's a stunner and a half.
Preggo model, huh?
Baby Leves hangin' with some leaves. You know that was funny, internet.
Ben joined us about half-way through. These people are so in love with each other that its just ridiculous… In a precious kind of way. :)
One hott baby mama. ;)
Just one of the many reasons I love them. Remember "Crest Whitestrips"? I call this "Flying Squirrel".
Hey there, little Levi. :)
Can't wait to meet you baby Levi. You are one lucky kid to be born into such an amazing family. :)


text: Hi,I am using fedora11 on my PC. I downloaded the linux kernel souce code.I copied config file from /boot directory and tried to compile. I amgetting some compilation errors.So I configured the kernel, with 'make defconfig', and it iscompiling successfully.But when I am booting my machine with new kernel, it simply starts anddisplays '-' at top of the screen. nothing more.My question is are fedora and linux kernel are connected or not? If so how?I thinks linux kernel runs for a while, when it is booted. But afterthat control comes to fedora.For example, in Fedora we can play chess.Windows aredisplayed.......etc ...many graphical things are there.I don't think that these gaphics, chess game.....are not part of linux kernel.Am I right?Also, some time back when I was using fedora10, I configured linuxkernel with /boot/ config file. I successfully compiled and run newlinux kernel.When I boot with new kernel, it is still going into fedora. But when Irun uname command it is showing new kernel version. But how come I wasable to play chess game? chess game is not part of kernel.So if you got what I am asking, please tell me how to disconnectfedora and linux kernel? So when I boot with new kernel only kernel'sthings should be running. not fedora's chess game. How to disconnectthem?Thanks in advance

OSLO (AP) – Just days after President Obama told a reporter for WLWT-TV in Ohio "that most people in Cincinnati would acknowledge that I've tried real hard," the international community did just exactly that very thing. The Nobel Committee announced today that President Obama would be the recipient of the Nobel Participant Prize.
"We really wanted to give him the Peace Prize again," said Committee Chair Thorbjørn Jagland, "but between drone strikes, Gitmo still being open, and the whole 'chucking bin Laden into the sea' thing, even an organization as nefariously corrupt as ours couldn't justify it. That check from Axelrod bouncing didn't help any, either."
"Still," continued Jagland, "we just couldn't stand the thought of America's President, weeping, snot-nosed, and tremble-lipped again like he was after the 2016 Olympics went to Rio instead of Chicago. And he DID try ever so hard. It's not really his fault that he's, you know, slower than the other world leaders. We thought we should at least give him something that kinda says 'you're not smart, but we love your big heart.'"
As a reward for his vigorous yet fruitless efforts, America's President will receive a hand-crayoned "GOOD JOB!" certificate with an as-yet-to-be-determined number of gold stars and/or smiley faces, suitable for sticking to the White House refrigerator with little fruit-shaped magnets.
"We don't give this award out to just anybody," said Nobel committee member Gunnar Stålsett. "For example, intelligent people who actually further human knowledge in useful scientific fields aren't eligible. However, we believe that young folks with good intentions but poor mental faculties are just as deserving of recognition as some brainiac science-dork. It's like when your child draws all over the walls with magic marker. You don't yell at the poor, dim-witted thing. You say 'Such pretty colors! You are so talented!'. Then you pat him on the head, give him a cookie and send him out to play, just bursting with self-esteem. Plenty of time to clean up the mess later. The important thing is he's happy and feels good about himself."
Although now technically out of the running for the Nobel Peace Prize, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said at this morning's press briefing that the President was still a "strong contender" for both "The Montgomery Burns Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence," and "Employee of the Month," adding that Mr. Obama "expects to be dining on ham and plaques any day now."

Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy Surgical Trial (CSM-S Trial)
ID Number 13-1942Principal Investigator(s)
Tanvir Choudhri
Department(s) or Division(s)
The purpose of the study is to determine the best surgical approach for subjects who have spinal cord problems (myelopathy) caused by pressure (compression) from degenerative changes in the neck's spinal column. Patients with the spinal condition cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) will be included in the study. Spinal surgeons in the United States have not reached an agreement about which type of surgery (decompression/fusion from the front or decompression with fusion or laminoplasty from the back) is best for the condition. All three surgical procedures are accepted and none are considered investigational. Mount Sinai Hospital is one of many centers in the United States participating in this study. Patients that have been identified for cervical spine surgery in routine practice will be enrolled in the study and will discuss a treatment strategy that may be selected by a process of chance called randomization. In order to educate both patient and spinal surgeon the patient's images will be transmitted electronically via a web-based network (with all identifying information removed) to the other 15 CSM investigators for expert opinion. Surgeon investigators will indicate either a) randomize or b) do not randomize (if one strategy is strongly favored over the other). The patient will see the results of the expert panel's review. If the majority favors randomization this will be offered. Otherwise the optimal strategy will be reached by discussion between the patient and spinal surgeon based on the expert opinions and the patient will be entered into the trial without randomization. About 91 non-randomized subjects will be entered into the study nationwide over 1 year. About 159 randomized subjects will be entered into the study nationwide over 1 year. After the surgical procedure the patient will be treated in a standard fashion. In addition patients will be contacted to complete various questionnaires before surgery 3 months after surgery 6 months after surgery and annually one through five years after surgery. MRI will be done pre-op and three months after surgery. A CT scan will be performed within 24 h after surgery. X-rays will be done pre-op and one year after surgery. An independent radiologist will review the films. The study sponsor is the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI).

Pros: A bright colorful toy for you little one to enjoy.
Cons: Mickey falls down quite a lot when skating forward.
Talk and Skate Mickey is a neat toy my son got for Christmas this year. It is made by Fisher-price a trusted name in our house hold. For a little more than $10 you have a great and fun toy for your toddler.
Mickey has several things that he says. "Hi ya pal, let's roll" as the music starts playing and his head starts bobbing back and forth. When he falls down, he says " Hey pal, set me up!" And when you put him back on his feet, he tells you he wants to skate some more.
He is dressed in a cute outfit, with tan pants and a red shirt. They are both in bright colors, and his skates are black. If you squeeze his left hand he will talk to you, or use his radio control (cordless of course) to make him skate forwards or backwards.
Of course Mickey is designed for safety, as he wears a helmet on his head, and elbow pads in case he takes a tumble.
Mickey has a hard time rolling across thick carpeting but does really well on hard floors or tile. He has little wheels on the bottom of his skates that turn in motion to keep him going.
Mickey comes with batteries but the remote control does not. This requires a 9 Volt to make this option work.
Over all my son loves this toy. It is not his favorite one from Santa, but it keeps him entertained.

on may 21 of next year. in atlanta apparently. i will see you all there. i will be waiting at the pink pony for His arrival, as God would want me to.
who else is excited?
Seriously though,,,,I'm soooooooooooo excited that I don't even know what to do with myself right now.........,,,,,,,,,,,
darn IT.........
i knew you would be. drinks, lap dances (and whatever else you're into) at the pony on ClubDirt for this momentous occasion.
we've argued about religion to no end. finally, the answer is imminent. some of us have said the christians are as crazy as they come, some of us said the atheists are angry and need to have faith, some said science is just the product of someone else's agenda, some are just uncertain. we'll see.
here's what i'd like to see out of this thread. first, some excitement to recognize this event. second, a list opf everyone meeting at the pink pony on may 21 with alcohol, drugs and stripper preferences so i know what to order. thank you in advance.
yea,,,,i think i'm gonna hold off and celebrate with the group, apparantly streaking by yourself is just considered a "public nudity" violation around here,,,,,,,,,
and surprisingly, being naked in the lobby of my apartment complex is frowned upon.............
count me in for the Pink Pony Dirt, I'll be wearing my "Welcome J-Man Shirt" (j-man is my nickname for him )
"God will destroy the world on Oct. 21, 2011."

The bible says... Matthew 24:36But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

They will need them because...
Revelation 22:18For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book
Proverbs 30:6Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar
Deuteronomy 4:2Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you
*Party on boys, party on, and may God bless you a safe return back to your homes from the club*
Tell em Dish ! Preach on brotha !
Don't make these atheists read too much though ....
"In fact, "atheism" is a term that should not even exist. No one ever needs to identify himself as a "non-astrologer" or a "non-alchemist." We do not have words for people who doubt that Elvis is still alive or that aliens have traversed the galaxy only to molest ranchers and their cattle. Atheism is nothing more than the noises reasonable people make in the presence of unjustified religious beliefs."
will you be at the J-MAN welcoming party with us (regrets only)
J-Man welcomes you, just as you welcome J-Man
I'm the J-Man........................
Nobody knows for sure when the Good Lord will return but I can only say this, when he does return I'm sure he is going to clean up all the wickedness and evil that's here on earth...amen to that brutha!!

UT chancellor wisely backs off resign-or-be-fired demand
July 22, 2014 at 2:22 a.m.
Which is more challenging: performing a liver transplant on a small child or navigating the political rapids of public higher education during the reign of Gov. Rick Perry?
Dr. Francisco Cigarroa, who will leave his job as chancellor of the University of Texas System when his successor is chosen, would probably say his current job is the toughest - which is why he's going back to doing transplants on little kids. At least it's easier to know when you succeed.
The strain of the UT job, which Cigarroa has held since 2009, showed up on the July 4 weekend, when he demanded that UT Austin President Bill Powers resign, effective October, or chance being fired at an upcoming meeting of UT's board of regents.
Powers refused Cigarroa's ultimatum and counter-offered to resign effective June 2, 2015. That, he said, would be less precipitous - allow him to be on the job through the upcoming regular session of the Texas Legislature during the first five months of next year and try to complete a fundraising goal of $3 billion.
Most of the university community sided with Powers, including students, faculty, alumni and just about everyone else.
The Texas Coalition for Excellence in Higher Education is a high-powered bunch of UT alumni and donors that formed in 2011 in the wake of apparent efforts of Regent Walter Hall to get Powers fired. July 7, it pleaded for Cigarroa to accept Powers' offer to quit next year.
Calling itself "profoundly disturbed" by Cigarroa's "surprise ultimatum delivered by the chancellor then leaked to a political activist supportive of Regent Wallace L. Hall Jr. and Gov. Rick Perry, is deeply troubling and has no place in the governance of one of our state's most important institutions."
It praised Powers on several fronts, including achieving record-breaking philanthropic giving and recruitment of world-class faculty.
"As evidenced by his offer of a graceful departure at the end of the legislative session and academic year, Powers has consistently acted in the best interests of the university while others seem more interested in fostering dissent and destruction," the group's statement said."UT Austin is a Texas treasure invested in and owned by the people of Texas," the statement concluded. "It is our sincere hope that the chancellor will veer from this current course and work collaboratively with Powers on a productive timeline for departure that puts first the best interests of The University of Texas at Austin."
Fortunately for just about everyone, including Cigarroa, he wisely swallowed his pride and accepted the gradual phase-out Powers proposed. The power group praised the "Kumbaya" outcome.
"We are grateful that our leaders were able to come together and put the interests of our great university first by allowing a thoughtful, responsible and orderly transition of leadership."
Meanwhile, the investigation continues by a special House select committee on agency transparency, appointed by Speaker Joe Straus, to see whether regent Hall's demands for a huge number of UT email communications was a "get Powers" witch hunt that warranted his impeachment.
Hutchison revenge?
An interesting sidebar in the Cigarroa/Powers/Hall saga was that July 1, the new president of the Texas Exes began her one-year term: former U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison.
Hutchison, who was a cheerleader at UT and got her law degree there, had strongly backed Powers.
Gov. Rick Perry, who appointed regent Hall, defended and praised him after the House committee voted 7-1 to continue pursuing impeachment.
Hutchison had tried to wrest the Republican nomination for governor from Perry in 2010. but got just 30.3 percent to his 51.1 percent. (Tea Partier Debra Medina got 18.5 percent.)
In a July 9 joint statement with Texas Exes Chairman Charles Matthews, Hutchison also praised Cigarroa and Powers.
"Over the last week, each leader has risen above personal differences to assure the interests of UT were the first consideration," the statement said. "Allowing President Powers to finish what he has started will ensure a successful year for UT and an orderly transition through the next legislative session."
Give me your tired, your poor - not
Texas' freshman U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, whose father, Rafael, fled Cuba for the United States in 1957 after being jailed and tortured by the Batista regime, wants to turn back children fleeing violence in Central America.
The children flocking through Mexico and across the Rio Grande to Texas should be sent back, says Cruz, who opposes any possibility of amnesty for 11 million people in the country illegally.
"The problem will not be solved until we make clear that those coming here illegally will not be granted amnesty," Cruz said July 17.

Mary Scully m to Conor Reilly Dublin 1875
My Greatgrandmother was Mary Scully born in central Dublin circa 1850 - 1855 (I'm guessing here)She married Corneluis (Conor) Reilly from Mullahoran in Co Cavan on 15 August 1875 in St Michan's Church in inner city Dublin. She lived at Ormond Crescent which I think would be roughly were Ormond square is now. They had two children Christina, My grandmother b December 1875 and Philip born May 1877. Conor died in March 1878 in North Dublin Union hospital. My Grandmother at some stage later (possibly when she was a teenager) came to live in Cavan and Philip stayed with the Scully Family.But we have no further records of what happened to Mary Scully Reilly.Her father was called Michael Scully and she had a sister Jane who was her bridesmaid and a brother called Jack I think. Philip Reilly Mary's son eventually emigrated to USA and had a family there. Would any Scully family have a memory of a Philip Reilly or Reilly folk being in contact with them in the early to mid 1900s.I would be so grateful if any one could throw any light on this family and particularly on Mary Scully Reilly.

- Bang Showbiz
- 27 May 2015
Controversial rap star Azealia Banks is to make her film debut in the RZA-directed drama 'Coco'
Azealia Banks is to make her film debut in the drama 'Coco'.
The 23-year-old rap star - who's perhaps best known for a series of feuds with a number of other celebrities, including Iggy Azalea and Pharrell Williams - will feature alongside Common and Jill Scott in the new movie directed by RZA, of the iconic hip-hop group Wu-Tang Clan.
In the movie, Azealia will play an aspiring rapper who stalls her hip-hop career in order to finish college to satisfy her parents, Deadline reports.
While she is studying, however, Azealia's on-screen character develops her spoken word skills, thereby boosting her future career prospects.
Lucien Laviscount, Lorraine Toussaint and Hana Mae Lee will all feature alongside the controversial rap star in her acting debut, with shooting expected to begin shortly.
Azealia's casting comes shortly after it was confirmed she will perform at the 2015 Glastonbury Festival.
She will join the likes of Foo Fighters and Kanye West at the iconic event staged near Pilton, Somerset, England from June 24 to June 28, 2015.
Azealia's festival performance is set to follow hot on the heels of shooting her first feature-length movie.

Download a review of Decoding Annie Parker by Anna Kuwada, Seattle Outreach Coordinator.
Decoding Annie Parker is a feature film based on the real lives of two remarkable women. It is the story of Anne Parker, played by Samantha Morton, a sharp witted, funny and irrepressible young woman who watches her mother, then sister, fall victim to breast cancer. When later, she herself is diagnosed with the disease she believes that her cancer must be hereditary in nature. She is resolved to fight back against immeasurable odds.
The film is also the story of Dr. Mary-Claire King, played by Helen Hunt, the Berkeley based geneticist whose discovery of the BRCA1 gene and it's link to hereditary breast cancer forever changed the understanding of the disease. Hers is considered one of the most important scientific discoveries of the 20th century.
Annie Parker and Mary-Claire King are separated by thousands of miles, by circumstance, background and education, but their lives gradually intertwine until a final, singular and life changing reckoning.
