Bedeviled by that old black magic
WASHINGTON — As though Bill Donohue didn't have enough to be cranky about.
The perpetually apoplectic Catholic League president is on the rampage about President Barack Obama trying to make sure women working at Catholic institutions get insurance coverage for birth control.
What's wrong with the rhythm method anyway? That's how I got here.
Donohue took time out from hyperventilating against the president to hyperventilate against rapper Nicki Minaj. He was in a snit about Minaj arriving at the Grammys in a red Versace cloak resembling a cardinal's, arm in arm with an actor dressed like the pope, and her over- the- top exorcist- themed number.
"Perhaps the most vulgar part was the sexual statement that showed a scantily clad female dancer stretching backwards while an altar boy knelt between her legs in prayer," Donohue bristled.
The rapper was debuting a song called "Roman Holiday," featuring one of her alter-egos, Roman Zolanski. She has described Roman as her gay twin sister and a lunatic, born of rage who comes out when she's angry (or hyping a new album).
It was more bizarre than outrageous, like bad vintage Madonna now that the Material Girl has gone mainstream. The only good thing about it, as Marc Hogan wrote in Spin, was the chance her devilish song might make "Bill Donohue's head spin while spewing green vomit."
The satanic rap was merely the latest illustration of the renewed fascination with the ancient rite of exorcism. After languishing in the Catholic Church, exorcisms are back in fashion. In 2004, worried about the rise of the occult, Pope John Paul II asked Cardinal Ratzinger, the head of the Vatican's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith who went on to become Pope Benedict XVI, to direct bishops around the world to appoint and train exorcists in their dioceses.
The infusion of Hispanic and African Catholics to the U.S., with their more intense belief in the supernatural, has brought a fresh demand.
In 2010, U. S. bishops held a conference in Baltimore on the topic.
Last month, the low- budget shaky-cam exorcist movie, "The Devil Inside," scored big despite sulfurous reviews. And, in a new book, Father Gabriele Amorth, the exorcist for the diocese of Rome — who has complained that yoga and Harry Potter are evil — claims that Pope Benedict exorcised two possessed men who were howling and banging their heads on the ground by blessing them.
The Vatican demurred that the pope has no knowledge of this. But Amorth wrote that "simply the presence of the pope can soothe and in some way help the possessed in their fight against the one who possesses them."
In an interview in October with The Huffington Post, on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of "The Exorcist," William Peter Blatty said his book and the Linda Blair movie resonated as an affirmation that " man is something more than a neuron net," that "there is an intelligence, a creator whom C. S. Lewis famously alluded to as 'the love that made the worlds.'"
I recently visited Father Gary Thomas, the pastor of Sacred Heart Parish in Saratoga in Northern California, an exorcist who was the focus of a book by Matt Baglio called "The Rite" that became a movie last year with Anthony Hopkins. It chronicled Thomas' demonology and exorcism training in Rome.
Thomas thinks the time is ripe for exorcisms because " our country is at war with itself culturally over whether or not it believes in God" and because "there is a growing amount of paganism — New Age practices like crystals, reiki, witchcraft, black magic, tarot cards, Ouija boards, seances." He said he knows of 52 exorcising priests in America.
Sitting in his office, holding a red book titled "De Exorcismis Et Supplicationibus Quibusdam," ("Of Exorcisms and Certain Supplications"), he conceded that despite 75 exorcisms on eight people, his success has been limited. (Nicki Minaj told Ryan Seacrest that her mock exorcism failed, too, because Roman was too " amazing" to succumb to holy water.)
The pastor explained that " soul wounds," like sexual abuse, pornography and sexual addiction, can serve as "doorways" to demonic attachment and possession. " Demons are always looking for people who have broken relationships and no relationships," he said. "That's why sexual abuse mixed with the occult is the perfect cocktail.
"Demons don't have corporeal bodies like we do. They can travel faster, are far more intelligent and have a much keener sense of free will."
He's not frightened of meeting a violent end like Fathers Merrin and Karras. "I'm protected," he said. " I go to confession before an exorcism." The 58- year-old priest does, however, think that Satan has tried to tempt him with "lustful urges."
" I would be in my car and have this visual rush," he said, "and I'm like, 'Where the hell did that come from?"'

A 100th birthday for any institution, or anybody, is an auspicious occasion. A fraught time, too, since amid all the congratulations, special events, recollections and fond backward glances, there are invariably moments of taking stock. And of wondering: How much longer?
In the case of humans, the answer is obvious: Not very much. For an institution, it's trickier. Especially one like the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto which, as the country's largest such institution – 74,000 square metres, 40 galleries, more than 6 million artifacts – is marking the centennial of its public inauguration on March 19. The ROM is burdened (or should that be honoured?) with not one mandate but two, both of which any pedestrian strolling Queen's Park boulevard can see carved in capital letters on the limestone exterior of the museum's 1933 wing: "The Record of Nature Through Countless Ages," "The Arts of Man Through All the Years."
That's a heavy brief for a Crown corporation which, in 2012-13, saw almost $30-million – 51 per cent of its operating revenue – come from a deficit-plagued, have-not provincial government. And a broad, brainy brief, too, at a time when, to quote one former museum director, "the first mandate in the museum sector is serving the tourism industry, followed by assisting delivery of school curriculum."
Or, then again, maybe just broad enough. Notes Canadian museum consultant Gail Lord, "There's a tremendous blurring of boundaries between disciplines going on now, and a real benefit is found and exists for interdisciplinary work." In fact, she argues, "the idea" if not the reality of an interdisciplinary, multicultural institution like the ROM is "an even better one now," than it was that cold, windy Thursday afternoon in 1914 when Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught, Governor-General of Canada, third son of the late Queen Victoria, declared the $390,567 museum open.
Practically, and sometimes impractically, the ROM's double-barrelled mandate has meant donning many identities. As itemized by former University of Toronto museum-studies professor Lynne Teather, they include "research centre, educational paragon, major civic institution, tourist destination, civilizing symbol, national cultural emblem, world-class museum." View the ROM as a hybrid – part British Museum, part Natural History Museum, part Metropolitan Museum of Art – and suddenly the colliding planes and vertiginous extrusions of the 2007 Daniel Libeskind-designed Michael Lee-Chin Crystal make a certain metaphorical sense.
The Crystal, of course, dominated discussion about the museum during its construction, as part of the nine-year, $416-million Renaissance ROM project, and it continues to stir people's opinions. The hope this centennial year, though, is to reset the discussion on what Director and CEO Janet Carding, quoting from an online review, calls the ROM's status as "a live version of Wikipedia" – and on how users can more easily access its riches both in-person and through digital media.
After all, it has been almost four years since William Thorsell, the driving force behind Renaissance ROM, departed, and just as long since Carding, the British-educated museum professional, came aboard as its first female CEO. Time, in short, to move on.
But move on to what? For Lord, "the challenge" ahead will be "to progress from multidisciplinary to interdisciplinary to intradisciplinary." But can it do so in an era of sclerotic government funding; audience fragmentation; the allure of the virtual; and a mandate that, for some, continues to smack of Victorian hubris?
Plugging into 'our vistor's voice'
Carding seems game to make the attempt. After what sources say was a "shaky" first year-and-a-half, the 48-year-old Carding is approaching her upcoming fourth anniversary as a confident, consultative, collaborative leader, her position secure with the board. Admittedly, attendance in each of the last three fiscal years, including the one ending this March 31, has been just under a million – below, in other words, the 1.5 million touted as achievable before her hiring, when the ROM was in full thrall to the "Bilbao effect." And Lord, for one, argues that attendance is still a "crucial metric," suggesting that, in North America's fourth-most-populous metropolis, "the ROM – and the zoo and the Art Gallery of Ontario and the Ontario Science Centre – should be having targets of substantially over a million visits."
But Carding sees things somewhat differently, calling such targets a "kind of arbitrary" preoccupation, and adding that "it's not my job to sign on to a particular level of visitor numbers. The important thing is we're delivering a great program, meeting our budget figures, investing in the museum's future, and looking at how the museum might change." Being a hybrid institution, she says, means assessing trade-offs. "If you focus all your attention on being a tourist attraction" – Carding describes 30 per cent of ROM's audience as tourists; and 140,000 students visit in a typical year – "then everything else would suffer from that."
ROM's director peppers her conversation these days with words like "personalization," "customization," "participation" and "intimacy." Yes, one can't overestimate "the power of the object," the public "craving for and curiosity about the real thing, for something you can't see anywhere else," and the museum's role as "a space for the authentic." But 25 years after the launch of the Web, she asks, "Does a seven-year-old feel the same way about the analog world that I do?"
It is Carding's belief that museums are moving away from the curator-on-down/broadcasting-out model by which "You build a gallery. You have it for 20 years. It says the same thing to everyone who comes in." In its place, she says, "There's a much more two-way conversation … We can no longer choose to ignore our visitor's voice." With their smartphones and iPads and fondness for social media, people "are looking for something they can personalize or customize and be part of." How this will work at the ROM remains to be determined.
One individual deeply involved in the process is Xerxes Mazda. Former head of learning, volunteers and audiences at the British Museum, he was recently named the ROM's deputy director, engagement, by Carding – responsible for all aspects of the visitor experience, at the museum proper and off-site. Asked what the role of the museum is in an era of digital interconnection, he says that it is users, not big corporations or institutions, who will provide the cues, just as they did with texting and Facebook.
The fact that "more people are accessing the Web through mobile than they are through fixed computer," in the past two years alone, says Mazda, "has changed how museums and institutions generally relate to the Web. So at the ROM, we're installing WiFi, thinking about how we can put our collection online so that it can be accessed by people in the galleries …" But, he emphasizes, "there will never be an answer, only a big range of answers that come and go."
Yet even in an era of scannable QR codes, the ROM is also discovering room to play in old media. This spring, in association with The Walrus magazine, the museum is publishing Every Object Has a Story, a colour-packed book – a book! – in which 21 celebrities of various stripes (they include Lynda Reeves, Deepa Mehta and Joseph Boyden) wax eloquent on a ROM artifact that strikes their fancy. And TVOntario is currently unspooling a six-episode series, Museum Diaries, shot last year in ROM storage vaults and laboratories and out in the field with the museum's scientists. It's believed to be the first such dedicated, prime-time TV exposure in the ROM's history.
Lowering prices, lifting veils
Money also is very important. Lord believes the ROM is "deserving of much more generous public support," particularly from government. The museum, she notes, carries collections that are "tremendously important for scientific research, social research, aesthetic research and, in a lot of cases, for the future of mankind. That long-term cost should be covered by government," she argues, not by museumgoers "paying admission or buying a cup of coffee in the cafeteria." The last 25 years, Lord adds, have seen an intensification of "this user-pay notion that is completely counterproductive to how our major institutions should be funded."
That's an ethos, however, that is unlikely to change any time soon. By some measures, in fact, the Ontario government has been a generous patron of the ROM. While more than $160-million in private commitments were garnered for Renaissance ROM, fallout from the 2008-09 global financial crisis made for a slowing of donor payouts as construction bills came due. As a result, in every year since 2008 the Ontario Financing Authority has been providing the museum tens of millions of dollars in low-interest loans. Moreover, when the projected postrenovation upswing in attendance failed to materialize, the government stepped in with close to $20-million in deficit-reduction grants. (Today, Carding says, "only a relatively small proportion [of the pledges]" remains outstanding; she estimates about $35-million in OFA loans remain on the books, to be paid in full by 2027.)
Meanwhile, Carding plans to open all of the ROM's doors to the public on May 3 and 4 – for the first time ever. As big as the museum is, an estimated 55 per cent of it – the laboratories, workshops, offices and storage – has been closed to the public at any one time. The open house is part birthday present, part politics. "People are going to be interested in supporting and being proud of things they know about and understand," Carding predicts. "If most of the research dynamism and the new discoveries and the changing side of the collections is hidden away, why are people going to be interested in them? … I want to be able to make a strong case to government and philanthropies that this is an important part of what we do."
A little over a year after Carding took the reins, the ROM also reduced its ticket prices, to help maintain attendance in the face of audience complaints that the museum was, in Carding's words, a place "just for people who could afford a high admission." Adults can now get in for $16 (it was $24 before); children for $12 (from $16).
Not everyone is convinced those prices are low enough. Lord, now 68, can remember the days of free admission to the museum, when she was a child, and thinks ticket prices remain a deterrent to repeat visits by non-members. And special exhibitions are not cheap to attend: A non-member couple with, say, a 13-year-old daughter and a university-age son would still have to shell out close to $100 to see the museum's superb new Fordibben City exhibition.
Carding, however, thinks the price decreases have worked. ROM's audience is more diverse, she says; there are more first-time visitors; and "there's been a sustained increase" – 18 per cent in 2012-13 – "in the numbers of people coming to see the collections, galleries and the programming," exclusive of special exhibitions.
'Bad days' and high hopes
The history of museums is a history of splits, mergers and occasional dissolutions, and provides little insight into how the ROM's totem poles and mummified cats may fare in the future. The Natural History Museum in London, for example, was originally a department of the British Museum, which had been founded in the mid-18 century, and only became an autonomous, self-governing institution in 1963 after almost a century of debate. The department had been given its own quarters, separate from the British Museum, in 1881 but even there it was known as British Museum (Natural History). In fact, the museum's current name came into effect only in 1992.
Dan Rahimi, a 27-year veteran of the ROM, doesn't think a similar split is likely for his many-tentacled employer "even under financial pressure," even as, on some "bad days," he thinks, "we can't sustain this." An archaeologist by training and now a ROM vice-president, Rahimi thinks that the benefits of housing the scientific and cultural/historical domains in one space, finally, "are too great. Imagine if we were to do a show on fur as a symbol of Canada: We could have mammalogists tell us about fur itself, historians about the fur trade, textile specialists about the use of fur in both aboriginal and European cultures." An inter- and intradisciplinary institution, he posits, is nothing if not "a very rich set of possibilities."
Lord, too, is bullish about the ROM's prospects as an encyclopedic museum over the next 100 years. "Not only do I think ROM will be here; it will be even stronger. Look at the Louvre: It's more popular, stronger than it was 200 years ago. … Toronto is going to be an ever-bigger city, even more multicultural than it is today, and those people will have even more interest in the ROM. The thing that's amazing about museums is how adaptable they are. They were among the first places to have gaslights on at night, for instance. People like to think of museums as places that never change. But really, they're among the most rapidly changing institutions in our society."
Some may choose to cleave the history of the ROM into two epochs: BC, as in Before the (Michael Lee-Chin) Crystal, and AC. But any notion of the ROM as a drowsy Queen's Park dowager rudely awakened to the 21st century by architect Daniel Libeskind's cold, crystalline "kiss" is largely a myth. From its inception, the site has seen additions, revisions and deletions, architectural and organizational churn.
When it opened a century ago, it wasn't one institution but five semi-autonomous entities – devoted to paleontology, archeology, zoology, mineralogy and geology – under one roof, each its own "Royal Ontario Museum."
After its 1914 launch, the biggest physical changes occurred in 1933 (construction of the now loosely called Weston Wing, on Queen's Park), 1968 (opening of the McLaughlin Planetarium, later briefly a children's museum, now ROM offices and storage), 1984 (building of what is now the Louise Hawley Stone Curatorial Centre, north of the planetarium, and the Terrace Galleries facing Bloor Street) and 2002-11 (Renaissance ROM, starting with demolition of the Terrace Galleries, and ending with the opening of new third-level galleries).

Harry Styles Dumped Taylor Swift Because She's 'Asexual & Wouldn't Put Out'
Harry Styles dumped Taylor Swift after growing tired of her "asexual" ways, RadarOnline.com exclusively reports.
The 18-year-old One Direction heartthrob, who has earned a reputation as a ladies' man across the pond, got bored of Taylor, 23, after she hardly ever put out.
"Taylor is so concerned that the public will think she's a wh*re because she dates around, that she doesn't put out," a pal close to the We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together singer told RadarOnline.com.
"What she doesn't get is that the guys keep dumping her because she's being a prude."
Another source says the fact that she constantly talked about antiques was another turn-off for the young singer!
"Harry found Taylor a little sexually uninterested," a source close to the star revealed.
"While it was clear she obviously had a thing for Harry, Taylor didn't want to put out as often as he would've liked. Harry is a young boy, with ladies throwing themselves at him and has had a string of relationships with older women.
"It's no secret he's sexually active and is enjoying his fame at the moment. But Taylor just wasn't up for it as much as he is. They were sexually incompatible."
Taylor's pal tells RadarOnline.com that her public reputation is of utmost importance to her and she doesn't understand how she's being perceived.
"Having a clean and wholesome reputation is super important to Taylor," the source says.
"She puts herself in these stupid situations but then honestly can't understand why she's getting such a shabby reputation."
Taylor tried her hardest to please Harry, the source insisted, but their lifestyles were just too different.
"Harry wants to go out to fancy bars and clubs and enjoy being young – but Taylor's more of a homebody and all she would talk about was antiques!" the insider says.
"It drove him crazy, so he gave her the elbow!"
Once again, Taylor was left heartbroken over another failed relationship.
"Taylor was beyond obsessed with Harry and she was over the moon when he agreed to take their relationship public," the source says.
"But he was over it before it ever really even began."

Broken Chains
Broken Chains is a novel that not only includes global locales, characters with drive and passion, different subculture, danger, romance, and infidelity, but also covers emotional and psychological topics that stab close to the human heart and soul. It is a page-turner consisting of 107,000 words and 29 completed chapters.
Broken Chains allows all women to share in the dilemmas and predicaments of a generation of Muslim women just trying to lead a life, not an existence, in a secular Islamic setting in Turkey. The strictures and confines of being a Muslim woman who becomes a Christian will intrigue a Western readership, transforming them out of their suburban American settings into the apartments of Muslim women confronting infidelity, birth control, secret, other familiar issues as well as the problematic relationship between mother and daughter but with different avenues for resolution and happiness. This novel demonstrates the struggle among characters who are experiencing substantial hardship and facing problems such as cheating, being in love with the wrong man, divorce, losing parents, getting depressed, fighting fear, being emotionally abused or angry, and finally finding true love and happiness.
For example, Esmira hides her pregnancy, especially from her strict mother. Readers will want to find out if her mother finds out and how she might react. Moreover, Esmira's husband is having an affair with a foreign woman. Readers will keep turning pages to discover whether his cheating will be exposed to Esmira. In addition, Silvana meets a handsome British man. While dating, he behaves like a loving and charming man, but once married, turns into a controlling and manipulative abuser. Silvana is getting abused by her husband and thinks about leaving him. Will she muster the courage and leave?
My main character, Silvana, is comparable to Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre. Both have had sad childhoods and felt lonely, angry, and rejected while struggling for a better life, looking for love, being disappointed in relationships, but in the end finding happiness with a man of their dreams.
If you desire excitement, adventure, and mystery or seek to escape from your problems.If you want not only to cry while reading a good novel but also to laugh together in the face of vibrant and expressive characters that may remind your teacher, boyfriend, abusive husband, strict mother or may be even best friend.Then Broken Chains is for you.
The following can be found in my novel:
Excitement- Wedding with unusual Turkish culture is something new and different for the readers. Divorcing abuser and at the end finding a true love, turning from a fearful woman into a business woman.
Adventure- Silvana's whole life full of adventure and disappointments. She ends up in school for children without parents, has problem with teacher. Father beats her mother while she at home. She has a life full of rich experiences as well as moves away from Turkey as a Muslim woman and becomes an Orthodox Christian in Kenya upsetting her family in Turkey for betraying her own religion.
Mystery- Samed uses false identity, hides from his family about existence of his kids until he ends up in jail. Esmira gives away her other bustard daughter Arzu to her friend for adoption Her daughter does not even know about existence of her siblings neither the mother who gave her away.
Across the darkness
Across the Darkness is a unique collection of short stories involving mysteries with such titles as "A Visit to Hell," "A Glimpse of the Future," "Revenge," "Greed," "The Witches of the Village of Helena," and "Fallen Angel," "Cowboy of Texas," and "Crossing Over Into Darkness."
Each story has its own supernatural and human characters, including university students, teenage schoolgirls, and successful doctors. They face demons, astral flight, spirits, hell, and witches.
"Glimpse of Future" demonstrates how a mixture of alcohol and demons can destroy a person's life. Ramesh, a Trinidadian man, had a wife, a good job, and a beautiful house, but he lost everything after allowing a demon to tempt him to become an alcoholic. He metamorphoses from a nice man into an abusive drunkard. But to the readers' surprise, all of his experiences are only visions of his future and can be changed.
"Suddenly the mirror became foggy. My ear caught a familiar buzzing sound. I froze with fear staring at the mirror. Words appeared in the mirror.
"Ramesh, I have been waiting for you for a long while. Are you ready to come with me?"
I kept staring at the mirror without blinking and unable to move. My hair on my head rose, and cold chills run down my body. Then a dark shadow appeared behind me. The shadow began to morph into a hairy, hideous creature with big horns on its head and claws with long nails. The smell of something burning registered to my nose. The beast grabbed my shoulders with its hairy hands. I tried to turn my head away in order not to see his ugly reflection in the mirror.
"Keep looking at the mirror," it whispered while licking my ear. He pressed down harder into my shoulder sticking his claws into my flesh. With his touch, my shoulder started to feel as if it was burned by a fire. My heart filled with gloom and grief. Tears started rolling down my cheeks."
Most readers will be able to relate to the message of each short story in Across the Darkness. Who has not come across a drunkard, abuser, a cheater, or demon itself? Some may have even experienced witchcraft or the presence of an evil spirit. Every story happens in a different country and introduces the reader to diverse, interesting characters who capture the readers' interest with their breathtaking and scary experiences. The length of each story is convenient for the reader to consume in manageable chunks.

Dec. 29, 2009
This year for Christmas my grandmother gave me a journal. \"Write in it,\" she said, \"It will make you feel better about things you can't talk to other people about.\" I think she is going a bit crazy. She knows I don't like to write. Mama, on the other hand, agreed with Gram. So here I am, talking to a bunch of a paper bound in laminated cardboard. Fun, huh? Anyway, I'm not really sure what to write here. I know for a fact that you're not supposed to introduce yourself to a book because people will think you are the weirdest person EVER! But do I really care what others think? Hm...
I guess I'll just start with the usual. School sucks but what teenager doesn't say that? Maybe that's not the best way to start a journal. Okay, let's go with.... life. Life is great. I have good friends, good grades, no boy to make me feel bad about myself. At the moment I like everything. Except school. Okay, back to the school. Maybe I should think about things for a few and get back to writing later.
Do you say good-bye to a journal?

For Steve Jobs, that meant his parents' garage, where in 1976 he sold his first batch of 200 Apple-1 computers for the vaguely demonic price of $666.66. Now one's going for $240,000 at auction. This Apple-1 comes in its original packaging and a wooden case—made by the first owner of the kit, not Apple—complete with instruction manual and a letter signed by Jobs himself. It was the first fully pre-assembled computer produced, complete with a 1.0 MHz MOS 6502 processor and an extra cassette interface for read/write capability. It was, essentially, a glorified calculator. And today it's a stunning reminder of how far we've come in just 34 years. [Daily Mail via 9 to 5 Mac]ReplyLeave a reply

Consumer Protection Laws and Your Business
Be aware of laws against deceptive advertising and pricing -- and when they apply.
If you are a business owner, make sure you know about and follow the state consumer protection laws that apply to your business. These laws protect consumers from unfair or deceptive practices. They go beyond the traditional legal remedies available for breach of warranty to really help consumers. Laws like these are on the books in nearly every state, although the details vary.
Hundreds of cases have been brought under consumer protection laws, including these:
- A man sued a department store that ran out of an advertised waffle iron and didn't give him a rain check -- a violation of the consumer protection law in his state.
- A homeowner sued a roofing contractor that falsely advertised that it could arrange financing for roof repair jobs.
- A woman sued a health spa that reneged on its promise to return her deposit and cancel her contract if she changed her mind within three days. (Health spas have been singled out for special regulation; if you're going to start one, get the Federal Trade Commission pamphlet on this subject at www.ftc.gov.)
To avoid these types of lawsuits you need to know the details of your state's consumer protection laws and tell your employees about practices that could get you in trouble. These state laws often allow a customer to sue even if the violation was not intentional.
Most consumer protection laws contain a broad prohibition on "unfair or deceptive practices." In addition, many statutes list specific practices that are forbidden, such as deceptive advertising and pricing, discussed below.
Deceptive Advertising
Under both federal and state law, an ad is unlawful if it tends to mislead or deceive, even if it doesn't actually fool anyone. If your ad is deceptive, you'll face legal problems whether you intended to mislead the customer or not. What counts is the overall impression created by the ad -- not the technical truthfulness of the individual parts.
FTC Enforcement of Deceptive Advertising Laws
Over the years, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has taken action against many businesses accused of engaging in false and deceptive advertising. If FTC investigators are convinced that an ad violates the law, they can do all of the following:
- convince the violator to voluntarily comply with the law
- issue a cease-and-desist order and bring a civil lawsuit on behalf of people who have been harmed
- seek a court order (injunction) to stop a questionable ad while an investigation is in progress, and
- require an advertiser to run corrective ads, admitting that an earlier ad was deceptive.
Consumers' Right to Sue for False and Deceptive Advertising
Consumers often have the right to sue advertisers under state consumer protection laws. For example, someone who buys a product relying on a deceptive ad might sue in small claims court for a refund or join others (sometimes tens of thousands of others) to sue for a huge sum in another court.
Deceptive Pricing
The two pricing practices most likely to get your business into trouble are: making incorrect price comparisons with other merchants or with your own "regular" prices, or offering something that is supposedly "free" but in fact has a cost.
Price Reductions
Offering a reduction from your usual selling price is a common sales technique. But the reduced price is misleading unless the former price is the actual, bona fide price at which you offered the article. For example, if you announce a new product for $129, but sell it to wholesalers as if it were a $79 product, and similarly discount it to direct customers, the $129 price never really existed -- and you have broken the law. It misleads customers into thinking they are receiving a discount.
It's even more blatant to buy a special batch of merchandise especially for a sale and create a fictional "regular" price or one you adhered to for only a day or two. Some merchants are tempted to do this when they buy seconds or discontinued product lines at a deep discount and want to pretend customers are getting a bargain.
If your ad compares your price with what other merchants are charging for the same product, be sure of two things:
- the other merchants are selling the identical product, and
- the other merchants had enough sales at the higher price in your area so that you're offering a legitimate bargain.
In other words, make sure that the higher comparison price isn't an isolated or unrepresentative price.
Less-Than Free Offers
Regarding offers of "free" products or services, you can offer gifts only if there are no strings attached. For example, if you offer a free paintbrush to anyone who buys a can of paint for $14.95, the brush really isn't free if you:
- usually charge less than $14.95 for this kind of paint, or
- usually provide a service (such as free delivery) with a paint purchase, but don't when the customer gets a "free" brush.
Punitive Damages
Consumer protection laws place a potent weapon in the hands of buyers -- punitive damages. In an ordinary lawsuit, a plaintiff can recover only his or her actual losses. But many consumer protection laws allow consumers to ask for additional penalties -- which can drastically increase the damage award, sometimes to triple or more of the amount of actual damage. In addition, these laws often require the defendant to pay for the consumer's attorneys' fees. The potential for large verdicts gives buyers and their lawyers an incentive to sue if it looks like a law has been violated.
More Information About Consumer Protection Laws
You can find out more about consumer protection laws by contacting the Federal Trade Commission (www.ftc.gov), 600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20850, 877-FTC-HELP (382-4357), and by contacting your state's consumer protection agency.

After a long hiatus, I got back on the saddle today and biked Samal. My trip took me from Babak to Penaplata to Kaputian. It's a trip I've been wanting to do since my biking trip in Christmas 2007. All in all, it was a trip of over 30km, with a lot of uphill sections.
This is the best photo of the trip, taken at Penaplata.
To get to Samal, I had to take this rickety ferry from Sasa launch terminal. The terminal is in a public market found at Km. 11, locally called "onse." There were several other bikers on the trip, though I found out later they were travelling north.
I really wasn't up to the uphill climb. It's been a while since I've been on a bike. And talking about uphill, there were plenty of long uphill sections. I had to take plenty of breaks in between.
I enjoy meeting barrio folk on these biking trips. This roadside barber was right beside a sari-sari store where I stopped for drinks.
This old fellow sells gasoline in softdrink bottles to passing motorcycles. Roadside gasoline stalls are quite common in rural areas.
Kaputian! It was a long trip getting here, but the roadside scenery was quite monotonous. Hence, the fast-forward.
At the beach.
And finally, my souvenir from this trip. I took a hard tumble on a steep rocky road from Anonang to Kaputian. Thankfully, no broken bones, just scratches on my knee and my hands.

Industry Upstart WebsiteBox Offers No-Strings Do-it-All Websites to Real Estate Agents, Teams and Brokers for $99 -- Lowest Price on the Market
With WebsiteBox, real-estate pros pay once, get sites with all 'the works' forever
Submitted: 01/15/2013
Submitted by: RE Technology
(New York) -- Inman Next Conference Start-up Alley – Jan. 16, 2013 – For a single payment of $99, real estate professionals in the U.S. and Canada can now purchase a sharp, attractive, mobile-friendly website, with ready-to-publish content, full MLS Integration with their local MLS associations (IDX), lead capture and customer-relationship management (CRM), an all-in-one control panel, an email address, and perpetual 24/7 website hosting. The new service is from WebsiteBox, an Internet start-up in Toronto.
WebsiteBox offers three $99 real-estate website packages for agents, teams, and brokers. In each version, users can configure a mobile-friendly real-estate website, or choose content to address their real-estate specialties, such as making single property sites, neighborhood sites, commercial real estate sites, rental sites, condo sites, and property-management sites.
The new product and price point from WebsiteBox has the potential to "upset the apple cart," and signals the commoditization of real estate website technology, according to Kurt D. Lynn, the company's chief executive.
"In every other industry," Lynn says, "Website technology sells for a fraction of the price that the real estate agent or broker has been asked to pay. We thought it was about time someone offered an appropriate price for good-looking, mobile-friendly sites for U.S. and Canadian real-estate professionals."
Equivalent services from WebsiteBox competitors are priced between $100 and $1500 per year just for the website, according to recent industry data from the National Association of Realtors. Other features -- like IDX, or CRM -- typically cost extra.
"That's tantamount to price gouging," says Lynn, "But there's no need for real estate professionals to get their pockets picked now that there's WebsiteBox. We deploy modern Internet technology, customize it to conform to real estate requirements, and sell it at a fair price. It's no small irony that, simply by doing what's typical in other markets, we'll be the value leader in the real estate world."
The company expects its low price to accelerate the way websites are used in the real estate marketplace. "At $99, agents now can afford to have a single-property website for any listing in their portfolio. For brokers, the $99 price tag, together with the collaborative CRM built into each website, will allow every agent in the brokerage to have a personalized website," says Lynn.
The WebsiteBox Do-It-All Websites for Real-Estate Professionals are available now and can be ordered and installed online in less than 30 minutes. Like any typical website hosting, each WebsiteBox website can be accessorized with personalized domains, additional email addresses, drip email-marketing campaigns, and other applications for a very nominal added cost.
About WebsiteBox
Toronto-based WebsiteBox was founded in 2012 by a group of technology professionals determined to establish a new value point in the real estate industry. Led by lifelong entrepreneur Kurt Lynn, WebsiteBox changes the game in real estate website technology. The company website has more information at http://www.websitebox.com.

Editor's note: The following is a news report on the increase of college graduates in Marion County from 1970 to 2010. The report was prepared by Bill Bishop, editor of the news site DailyYonder.com, and Robert Gallardo, an associate professor at Mississippi State's Southern Rural Development Center. The report is based on Census data and is specifically about Marion County and Kentucky.
Marion County is working on a new trademark, "The Buckle on the Bourbon Belt," but what people can't seem to get enough of is the Turtleman.
According to Nicky Reynolds, executive director of the Lebanon Tourist and Convention Commission, the Turtleman's fans keep the phones at the tourism office ringing. And people even stop in the tourism office looking for him.
Kentucky is facing a prescription drug abuse epidemic. You've likely already heard the statistics. Approximately one thousand Kentuckians die each year - that's about three a day - from pain pill overdose. Some reports estimate that one in three Kentuckians has a friend or family member who they say is struggling with prescription drug addiction.

Mandy Moore net worth: Mandy Moore is a New Hampshire-born actress, singer-songwriter, and designer who has a net worth of $10 million. Mandy Moore became a household name as a singer, releasing three pop influenced albums that made her a hit with teen audiences.

Need to Root and Backup on KitKat, Need Help!
Hey everyone! So I recently installed KitKat (4.4.2) and I completely hate it. Many of my apps are no on working and I do not have permission to write on my SD card. The problem is I plan on rooting on my phone to get back the writing permissions on my sd card; however, many of the backup apps I'm using are no longer working as intended due to the sd card limits. And since rooting my phone is going to cause me to lose my data, what should I do? I have multiple apps that I still need the data from. Is there an app can still backup my content (apps, games(with data), sms, etc) and be able to restore it on KitKat? Please let me know! I'm using Samsung Galaxy S4 (SPH-L720)

Usually, apps that can back up your data require root access. Some don't like Super Backup. You can try that.

Re: Need to Root and Backup on KitKat, Need Help!
Only the app that creates the folder can write to it in KitKat. Install Helium and back up apps + data (the default is data only) to the external SD card. (It'll be in the Carbon [old name of Helium] folder.) You'll have to download a file to the PC but the link to that file is in the app when you run it. (That's just to fake giving Helium permission. Once the phone is rooted, you don't need that file.

Early summer
after school
after low tea
of bread and jam
and a glass of milk
you sat with Fay
on the roof
of the pram shed
of Banks House
and looked up
Meadow Row
watching the sun
slowly going down
on the busy horizon
she clothed
in a grey dress
with black plimsolls
and you in fading jeans
and open necked shirt
and she said
my daddy says
I've to learn
the Credo in Latin
by the summer holidays
or there'll be trouble
what the heck's the Credo?
you asked
looking at the heels
of her plimsolled feet
hitting the wall
of the pram shed
it's the I Believe prayer
setting out the items
of our beliefs
in the Catholic Church
why Latin?
you said
noticing fading bruises
on her thighs
as the hem
of her dress moved
as she banged her heels
against the wall
because daddy said so
she said
at the orangey sun
in the darkening
blue sky
I don't know many prayers
you said
at least
not all the way through
except the ones
they teach us
at school
even then
some of the boys
put their own words in
which I couldn't
repeat to you
she looked at you
her fair hair
adding beauty
to her pale face
and water colour blue
of eyes
best not to
she said softly
don't your parents
insist you learn prayers?
she asked
you said
my old man
wouldn't know a prayer
if it came up
and tickled his moustache
she smiled
and looked away
then after a few moments
of silence
she said
the sun looks
like a big orange
on a big blue cloth
doesn't it?
you said
looking skyward
then watched
the traffic pass by
at the end
of Meadow Row
and the bombsite outline
on the right hand side
and the shadows caused
by the lowering sun
then you lowered
your sight
to the fading bruises
on her thighs
and the watercolour blue
of her bright clear eyes.

This Lent, take a 40-day devotional journey with Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Click here to sign up.
14:19 blessed him. That Melchizedek blessed Abraham is understood by the author of Hebrews to indicate that Melchizedek was greater than Abraham (Heb. 7:7).
God Most High. Hebrew El Elyon. El, the supreme god in the Canaanite pantheon at the time of Abraham, had similar titles (e.g., El Olam, "Everlasting God"). The patriarchs used these titles for the Lord, the true God, Creator of heaven and earth. Abraham interpreted Melchizedek's praise in this way, repeating the same titles but adding the covenantal divine name Lord (Yahweh) in v. 22. Though a Canaanite, Melchizedek had come to know the true God—a pagan priest could not meaningfully have "blessed" Abraham, nor would Abraham, who was consecrating the land to the Lord (12:7 note), have given "a tithe" to the priest of the depraved Canaanite god El.

Service Team of Professionals
Flood Cleanup, flood damage cleanup, Flood damage repair
Water damage restoration is a commonly needed service. Broken or frozen pipes, overflows, and sewer back-ups are common situations where water damage restoration is needed. Immediately, the house or building must be dried out. Fast response is absolutely critical. Standing water and/or carpeting must be extracted. Carpeting might need to be removed. Depending on saturation, drywall may need to be cut and removed from lower walls.
Professional grade fans and dehumidifiers are used in specific quantities and methods to quickly and thoroughly dry the structure. Secondly, depending on how long certain materials were wet (drywall, paint, carpet, sub floor, framing, etc.), some water damage restoration will have to be performed to return the building to "pre-loss" condition.
S.T.O.P. can do the WHOLE JOB, and do it right… right down to placing your furniture back in the "right there" spot. These are the events and the skills that put professional water damage restoration contractors in high demand.
It is estimated that there are ten water damage situations for each fire event in homes and commercial buildings. S.T.O.P.'s technical support staff and our management/marketing support continues to build the finest restoration companies across the country. We're proud that S.T.O.P. is unbeatable in the water damage restoration field.

Shot placement for small caliber pistols

I said I WOULD SHOOT HIM IN THE GROIN AREA
Trouble with small calibers is usually they come in small sizes that are hard to shoot. Be it because of small grips, or sights (if any), or sight radius, or combination of the three.
As a result precise shot placement can be much harder than with a larger caliber gun.
Now when someone is trying to crack your scull with a St. Louis slugger or ventilate you with any variety of knife or gun, I'd say a groin shot would kill but not stop. And stopping is what SD is all about. I do not want to swap pain with the bad guy nor end up in the hospital cause the guy keep a 'shooten.
If my .22/.32/,380 was the size of say a Sig 232 then I'd go for the eye socket IF I AM VERY SKILLED. If not, COM. If the pistol was the size of a TCP, then COM is the only real choice.

Ryan C. Fuhrmann, CFA, founded Fuhrmann Capital after coming to the realization that many aspects of the investment profession serve Wall Street well, but not necessarily the needs of individual and related investors on Main Street. Ryan has nearly 20 years of experience in the investment field and focuses on developing close working relationships with his clients to help them attain their financial goals. He seeks a comprehensive understanding of client return objectives, risk tolerances, liquidity needs, investment time horizons, tax profiles, retirement goals and estate planning needs. Ryan stands apart from the industry in that he emphasizes performance and fees as important topics for his clients consider.
Fuhrmann Capital LLC is an investment advisory firm and Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) in the state of Indiana (registration does not imply a certain level of skill or training). The firm manages separate accounts for individuals, families, as well as taxable and tax-exempt organizations and also serves as general partner for Fuhrmann LP, a value-based investment partnership for accredited investors.
The firm's investment approach is founded on in-depth research and active portfolio management. The portfolio management process specifically consists of a low-fee, low-turnover, bottoms-up, opportunistic, and long-term orientation toward investing. Overall, Fuhrmann Capital steadfastly believes it can deliver superior performance over time by taking advantage of the market's biases toward short-term performance, index-hugging, and the extrapolation of near-term trends into the future. Combined with a focus on low fees, Fuhrmann Capital strives to protect its client's assets and minimize the risk of loss over a 3-5 year investment cycle.
Ryan believes that securities trade in line with the business fundamentals of the underlying firm over the long haul. The investment style can be best described as value-based in that it searches for appealing businesses with favorable and durable economics whose underlying securities are trading well below underlying intrinsic, or true value. Another cornerstone of this approach is to invest in businesses that grow their sales and profits consistently over time.
To learn more about Fuhrmann Capital's investment process, please refer to its monthly outlook archive, which includes over six years of articles, investment research, and discussion. Many of these postings source originally from Ryan's blog at www.rationalanalyst.com.

I'm Phil : but most people call me MasterAbbott. I've been a huge fan of gaming since the age of 3, when my dad bought me my first ever gaming console: The CBS Colecovision, the rival to the Atari 2600 at the time. The first game ever played on the CBS was similar to Pac Man called Mouse Trap, many hours were lost playing that great game I can tell you. With my growing hunger for gaming, I dont ever think I will ever tier of this amazing and enjoyable and hugely popular industry.
I believe I'll always be a gamer till the day I die. I'm now in my mid 30's (Yes Yes no old people jokes, I can still hold my own) and over the years of gaming I've come in contact with nearly every gaming console that was released in Australia, US and Japan .. I've collected and still have a fairly large assortment of old school games, consoles and arcade machines lying around the house. Oh and I've got at least two of the latest next gen consoles (yes I know I have major issues).
In 2009 I decided to express my passion to the world and create a Video Game / Entertainment site that covered everything that is video games/anime/technology and entertainment. Sharing the latest news, reviews and interviews from leading gaming developers on all platforms. Plus a whole lot of other weird and wonderful things.
Here at Capsule Computers, we cover everything that is gaming and entertainment from the Xbox 360 all the way back to the mighty CBS ColecoVision!.
If you find the stuff we do here enjoyable and entertaining subscribe to our official Twitter and also FACEBOOK pages. We also have a very popular YouTube channel as well as a very informative and enjoyable Podcast show.
All feedback is also greatly appreciated, email me at : firstname.lastname@example.com : I always reply to everyone. (even if it's hate mail)

Hey people, name's Travis and I'm the Managing Editor here at Capsule Computers. I'm quite an avid gamer who has been playing games on practically every console starting with the Super Nintendo, though I've since moved to more standard consoles and handhelds. Also within the last few years I've become engrossed with anime and manga, especially when it comes to anime with plenty of fan service or harem type shows.
I'm a regular on both our gaming and anime podcasts here on Capsule so check those out if you want to hear me complain about retro titles, pessimism over various industry news and rejoice over the amount of fan service and breasts in any given anime or game.Senior Editor

Well, The name is Dustin and I am 22 years old and have been gaming for about 17 years. As a kid, I always ended up with hand me downs for systems, so I worked my way up from Atari from the get go in gaming. When it comes to games, I play it all. I look for unique, obscure games that nobody gives a chance because to me, finding a gem of a game is worth sifting through the bad or poorly designed. I don't do system wars, as I think every system has it's own pros and cons. I do remember banking in hours and hours playing Pokemon Red & Silver on my game boy, and hopping online for Socom and Smackdown vs Raw with my PS2 when online was new and exciting.
Even now with Halo 3 and many other new titles. I never play online games to win though, just to kill time and meet some of the cool and insane people online. As the gaming industry evolves, excitement dies as fast as it grows, because of the next big thing is always right around the corner. Which is why I am with Capsule Computers, to be a part of the madness that is the industry and share some opinions of my own with all of you.
Now by chance if you wanted to know anything else, catch me on twitter.com/discordman, my twitter is by no means pure excitement, but I will be keeping up to date with what I am playing, doing, twitter stuff, ect, ect ect.Editor

I'm Nathan. I've been a fan of gaming ever since I got a SNES and Donkey Kong Country for my 6th birthday. From then I really stuck with the console experience and have owned pretty much every Nintendo and Playstation console. My favourite games include the Crash Bandicoot series, the Donkey Kong Country Series, Mario Tennis on N64, Pokemon, anything Dragonball Z and probably one of my favourite games of all time Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Did I mention I love Dragonball Z, I've probably watched the whole series at least 5 times. I studied video game design at Monash University and have been attempting to make my own apps in my spare time.
My dream is to be the lead creator on my very own large scale adventure game on the leading consoles at the time. When I'm not staring at screens, I enjoy playing tennis, table tennis and hanging out with friends down at the bar or club. I love travelling and have been to America and Japan so far. Loved every second of it.

"Born in Eastern Europe somewhere, raised in the heart of darkness, now serving out his life sentence in the convict colony continent ('Straya!). Obsessed with all things geek culture. I started gaming young with things like the original 'Age of Empires'. Started even earlier with films thanks to the work of Charlie Chaplin ('Modern Times' and the 'The Kid' are my favourite). Movies and gaming are what kept me company throughout my younger years as my family moved from continent to continent (Cue sad violin).
I got heavily into geek culture when I entered uni and joined a society which dealt with such interests. I ended up overdosing on geek and in no time at all, I staged a coup within said society to become its beloved El Presidente. In that time I became acutely aware of my own interest and talent for pen and paper roleplaying games, with a preference for the 40k roleplaying series. I lost power when a pretender staged their own coup, but my love of geek culture has continued to the present day.
I write for/make movies/games/plays/trouble and aim to entertain/inform/provoke thought.
My favourite genre of games is strategy, with lots of love being given to the old XCOM series as well as its new reboot (CURSE YOU SECTOPODS!). I also like RPGs, cooperative online games, and, every once in a while (when the stars are right), a first-person shooter.
I don't have a favourite genre of film, but my favourite film of all time is 'Lord of War' as I couldn't help but be hooked by its amazing opening sequence (Seriously, go check it out) alongside the style of Andrew Niccol in that particular piece.
I don't know what else to add here, so I'll just apologise for my gratuitous use of asides and hope that you enjoy my work…"Contributor

Born and raised on the isolated rocky prison continent floating on a sea of magma colloquially known as 'Australia', I've been a gamer and geek since I could hold a mouse. Primarily a PC gamer, I was originally motivated by a love of puzzles that has mutated into a hearty appreciation for all kinds of games of tabletop and screen. Strategy games, RPGs, and rogue-likes; where electronic worlds failed to fulfill me I turned to live-action games. Some might say I spread myself too thin, but as the resident rules lawyer, I'm sure it's written somewhere that they're probably wrong.
I heartily dived headlong into geek culture while studying at university, a passion I keep fed with movies, TV, war-games and whatever else strikes my fancy. My favorite movie is Aliens, and as for my favorite game, just by counting hours it would be Sid Meier's: Civilization V. But I can quit any time. Just after one more turn…

There's something in a flying horse, There's something in a huge balloon; But through the clouds I'll never float Until I have a little Boat, Shaped like the crescent-moon.
Fly fishing may be a very pleasant amusement; but angling or Float fishing I canonlycomparetoa stick and a string, with a worm at one end and a fool at the other.Quoted in Hawker Instructions toYoung Sportsmen (1859). The attribution is doubtful, and Swift has also been credited with the remark.
The air moves like a river and carries the clouds with it; just as running water carries all the things that Float upon it.Notebooks. Quoted in Vincent Cronin The Flowering of the Renaissance (1969).
There is (so to speak) "a mighty stream of tendency" to good in the human mind, upon which all objects Float and are imperceptibly borne along; and though in the voyage of life we meet with strong rebuffs, with rocks and quicksands, yet there is a "a tide in the affairs of men," a heaving and a restless aspiration of the soul, by means of which, "with sails and tackle torn," the wreck and scattered fragments of our entire being drift into the port and haven of our desires!william hazlitt
The morning slips away in a Valium haze and catalogues,And numerous cups of coffee,In the afternoon the weekly food is put in bags - as you Float off down the high street.The shop windows reflect, play a nameless host to a closet ghost -A picture of your fantasy, a victim of your misery...paul weller
It is so hard for an evolutionary biologist to write about extinction caused by human stupidity. […] Let me then Float an unconventional plea, the inverse of the usual argument. […] The extinction of Partula is unfair to Partula . That is the conventional argument, and I do not challenge its primacy. But we need a humanistic ecology as well, both for the practical reason that people will always touch people more than snails do or can, and for the moral reason that humans are legitimately the measure of all ethical questions for these are our issues, not nature's.stephen jay gould
Life is also busy transporting and overturning the soils of earth, the stones, and the minerals. The miles-long drifts of sea kelp that Float along our coasts may carry hundreds of tons of volcanic boulders held in their roots. I have followed these streams of life over 300 km, and seen them strand on granite beaches, throwing their boulders up on a 9,000 year old pile of basalt, all the hundreds of tons of which were carried there by kelp.bill mollison
Cease, cease, wayward Mortal! I dare not unveil The shadows that Float o'er Eternity's vale; Nought waits for the good but a spirit of Love, That will hail their blest advent to regions above. For Love, Mortal, gleams through the gloom of my sway, And the shades which surround me fly fast at its ray.Percy Bysshe Shelley
It is not difficult to grasp and express thoughts that Float on the stream of current opinion: but to think and rightly utter what is permanently true and interesting, what shall appeal to the best minds a thousand years hence, as it appeals to them to-day, this is the work of genius.john lancaster spalding
In the study of ideas , it is necessary to remember that insistence on hard-headed clarity issues from sentimental feeling , as if it were a mist, cloaking the perplexities of fact . Insistence on clarity at all costs is based on sheer superstition as to the mode in which human intelligence functions. Our reasoning grasps at straws for premises and Float on gossamer for deductions.Alfred North Whitehead
Up in the heights of the evening skies I see my City of Cities Float In sunset's golden and crimson dyes: I look and a great joy clutches my throat! Plateau of roofs by canyons crossed: windows by thousands fire-furled O gazing, how the heart is lost in the Deepest City in the World.James Oppenheim, New York from a Skyscraper.
Style is the gossamer on which the seeds of truth Float through the world.George Bancroft, p. 481. (Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895))
Fly fishing is a very pleasant amusement; but angling or Float fishing, I can only compare to a stick and a string, with a worm at one end and a fool at the other.Attributed to Johnson by Hawker, On Worm Fishing (not found in his works); see Notes and Queries (Dec. 11, 1915).
I seemed to Float not into clearness, but into a darker obscure, and within a minute there had come to me out of my very pity the appalling alarm of his being perhaps innocent. It was for the instant confounding and bottomless, for if he were innocent, what then on earth was I ?Ch. XXIV (The Turn of the Screw (1898))
