3rd Set of TennCare Fraud Charges for Sevier Co. Man
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A Sevier County man is charged for the third time with doctor shopping for controlled substances, using TennCare healthcare insurance benefits as payment.
The Office of Inspector General (OIG) today announced the arrest of Clark Michael Shelton, 37, of Kodak. A Sevier County Grand Jury charged him with four counts of doctor shopping for controlled substances. In addition, Shelton was charged with three counts of obtaining a controlled substance by fraud.
Shelton was arrested earlier this month on an indictment out of Greene County, where he is charged with six counts of doctor shopping for the pain killer Lortab, in addition to six counts of obtaining a controlled substance by fraud. His first doctor shopping arrest was a year ago in Knox County, also involving two counts of doctor shopping and six counts of obtaining a controlled substance by fraud.
"Crossing into another county to try to get prescription drugs does not prevent a person from being busted for trying to stock up on prescriptions for painkillers," Acting Inspector General Lawrence S. Saylor, Jr., said. "We will continue to go after these individuals every time they try to commit fraud against TennCare, which is vitally important to a lot of Tennesseans."
TennCare fraud involving doctor shopping is a Class E felony carrying a sentence of up to two years per charge in prison. District Attorney General James Dunn is prosecuting.
The OIG, which is separate from TennCare, began full operation in February 2005 and has investigated cases leading to over $3.5 million paid in restitution and recoupment to TennCare, with a total estimated cost avoidance of over $173 million for TennCare, according to latest figures. To date, 2,172 people have been charged with TennCare fraud.
Through the OIG Cash for Tips Program established by the Legislature, Tennesseans can get cash rewards for TennCare fraud tips that lead to convictions. Anyone can report suspected TennCare fraud by calling 1-800-433-3982 toll-free from anywhere in Tennessee, or log on to www.tn.gov/tnoig/ and follow the prompts that read "Report TennCare Fraud."

All about us after the break - Christian
27 September 2015|Tottenham Hotspur
Christian Eriksen hailed our second half display as we got the better of Manchester City at White Hart Lane on Saturday.
Eric Dier's equaliser just before half-time cancelled out Kevin De Bruyne's opener for the visitors, who sat top of the league prior to the weekend's action.
But goals from Toby Alderweireld, Harry Kane and Erik Lamela saw us pull away after the interval and register a comfortable 4-1 win – a result that our Danish international midfielder revelled in afterwards.
"It feels really good to win like that!" beamed Christian, whose free-kick cannoned back off the woodwork and presented Harry with the opportunity to grab our third goal on the day – his first of the season at club level.
"The first half was a bit difficult, they created a lot of chances and we had to fight a lot, but luckily we bounced back just before half-time and the second half was our game.
"It's always good to recover from going behind – we've tried a few times before when the opposition has scored before us, but we know we have the strength and quality to come back and we showed a lot of character today.
"We always create a lot of chances but it's just about getting the ball over the line. Today we had a little bit of luck that we needed and that gave us the confidence to keep going for another goal and another."
What a day at the lane! Great result! #4-1 #coys #23 #canicallthatanassist? https://t.co/wX6g3w4djL
— Christian Eriksen (@ChrisEriksen8) September 26, 2015
Christian also saluted our defensive efforts against a fearsome Manchester City front line – but insisted it wasn't just the back four that ensured we kept Manuel Pellegrini's side at arm's length.
"The defenders showed who they are and what they're capable of, but it was the whole team defending, not only the four at the back," added the 23-year-old.
"We showed that we're ready to work for each other and overall I think we demonstrated what we're capable of, so hopefully we can continue this now."

Did You Know That There Are Five Love Languages?
Boy! I wish someone had explained this to me some time ago. Life surely would have been easier for the kid. Gary Chapman explains this theory in detail in his series of books called, "The Five Love Languages". Needless to say, I went through life loving others as my mother and grandmother expressed love to me. It just seemed like the natural thing to do...right? Ok, so as we get older, we learn something new everyday. You can in fact teach an old dog a new trick. I learned that there are five distinct ways that people give and receive love. They are 1. Words of Affirmation, 2. Gifts, 3. Acts of Service, 4. Quality Time, 5. Physical Touch. Low and behold the love language of your parents will be the one that you learn how to speak first and will be your primary language. This is called the "heart language". It is definitely a must that you know how you receive love and how your significant other receives love. Once this is understood both of your love cups stay full. For example, If your love language is gifts or acts of service and you are given words of kindness, no matter how many kind words that are said to you, you will always feel empty. However, a simple small box of Godiva chocolates of a new gadget of some sort will go a very long way. Get it now?

Much of the money will be invested in building new further education facilities in Basildon and Thurrock town centres, including a new campus in Basildon Town Centre. This, of course, works very well with the regeneration plans for Basildon Town Centre.
In Basildon, the winning Consortium will be led by SEEVIC College, who will be developing centres of excellence in sport and recreation, health, social care and medical technologies; business administration and financial services and engineering. These are serious subjects for the 21st century, and represent a shift away from some of the 'softer' vocational, but relatively low-skill subjects on offer in the past.
Councillor Malcolm Buckley, Leader of Basildon Council, said:
We are committed to raising education standards in the District and we are delighted to welcome yet more investment into the area. Raising standards and aspirations of our young people is vital to the future of Basildon.
This investment will not only help to raise attainment levels and standards of education, it will also be a major catalyst in the £1billion regeneration of Basildon town centre, and see the creation of a world class college campus in the heart of the town.
Too right, Malcolm.

The Top 10 Horror Movies of 2011
In a year when the horror scene was dominated by big-budget sequels (Scream 4, Final Destination 5), remakes (Fright Night), and prequels (The Thing, a run-up to the 1982 film that was itself a remake of the 1951 original), indies and U.S. releases of foreign titles helped keep the genre vital.
A polarizing head-scratcher like Rubber — the story of a sentient tire on a killing spree — may not represent the future of horror. But it's safe to say you've never seen anything quite like it. That's enough to make you forget (almost) the letdown of The Ward, John Carpenter's first feature in a decade, a rehash of asylum-with-a-secret clichés with a predictable eleventh hour twist.
The good news is that with a little digging, there are easily ten stand-out 2011 horror releases.
10. Human Centipede 2
Dutch writer-director Tom Six sets out to top his bad self with this
self-referential, black-and-white sequel in which a sweaty, perverted
troll of a garage attendant with a thing for Human Centipede
star Ashlynn Yennie decides to recreate his favorite movie on an epic
scale, assembling a 12-person mega-pede with nothing more than saws,
hammers, upholstery needles, and insane determination.
9. The Dead
Cross Cormac McCarthy's The Road with Day of the Dead,
relocate the action to West Africa, and change the father and son into a
white American mercenary and an AWOL Ghanian soldier forced to work
together or die. That's the pitch version of brothers Howard J. and Jon
Ford's zombie apocalypse picture, which is far more subtle, evocative,
and haunting than it would lead you to believe. And yes, there is zombie
gut-crunching — and plenty of it.
8. Apollo 18
Ignore the haters: This low-budget mockumentary about the fate of NASA's
last, top-secret lunar mission is a clever little thriller that sweats
the details, from the grainy, blown-out look of the faux found footage
to the early-'70s technology. Strong performances, claustrophobic
atmosphere, and a perfectly paranoid explanation for the
U.S. government's obsession with recovering missing moon rocks, right
down to the smallest fragment, are the icing on the cake.
7. Stake Land
Sometime in the near future, a virus has turned most of the world into
zombielike vampires, toppling governments, shattering the social order,
and leaving survivors to band together and figure out how to rebuild
some kind of society while dodging both bloodsucking ghouls and
religious fanatics who see the plague as evidence of God's wrath. It's
not a genre-changer, but it's a welcome relief from sparkle vampires
awash in teen angst.
6. Don't Be Afraid of the Dark
Cowritten by Guillermo del Toro, this grownup remake of the TV movie
that scared the pants off '70s kids is faithful to the spirit of the
original. But making the terrorized heroine a 10-year-old rather than a
high-strung young housewife gives it real bite, because the meekest
adult has more options than a girl whose dad is caught between her fear
of creepy critters beneath the floorboards and his of financial ruin,
inevitable if he can't get top dollar for the gilded-age mansion he's
just restored.
5. Kidnapped
Newly installed in a swank trophy house in an upscale suburb, a
middle-age couple and their bratty teen daughter suddenly find
themselves hostages in their own home, at the mercy of four thugs, one
of who directs the others by phone and seems to have them under constant
surveillance. Shot in a twelve long, hand-held sequences and largely
confined to a single location, it's Funny Games without the high-toned moralizing and the inexorably escalating nightmare the suspiciously similar, big-budget Trespass wasn't.
4. Paranormal Activity 3
Defying the rule of diminishing returns that governs most horror
franchises, the third entry in the series — a prequel — retains the
signature found-footage conceit that lets the filmmakers withhold
information at will without making viewers feel like dupes. It also
gives up some answers to questions raised in the previous installments
without stripping them of their eeriness. That's a neat trick more
filmmakers should master.
3. I Saw the Devil
Classy torture porn or extreme cat-and-mouse thriller? Either way, this Korean shocker from the director of A Tale of Two Sisters
pits a serial killer against an ex-cop cop who isn't interested in
arresting the man who raped and murdered his fiancée (hence the "ex"):
He wants to annihilate him. It's one brutal head game that goes exactly
where you think it's going until it doesn't, and does so more than once.
2. The Troll Hunter
Just when you thought the last spawn of The Blair Witch Project
had died a direct-to-DVD death, along comes writer-director André
Øvredal's Norwegian mock-doc about a bunch of film students who set out
to make a film about bear attacks and uncover a government conspiracy to
conceal the existence of trolls. And not goofy Troll 2 -type trolls, either. What makes The Troll Hunter
such a find is the nimble shifts from humor to horror, a balancing act
that regularly defeats more experienced filmmakers. Be sure to stick
around for the kicker buried in the end credits.
1. Attack the Block
UK writer-director Joe Cornish's first feature does The Troll Hunter
one better: It's genuinely funny and genuinely scary, and it draws some
sharply observed social commentary from interactions between residents
of a low-income housing project (the titular "block") besieged by
vicious aliens. It's as smart as Shaun of the Dead, a comparison that inevitably comes to mind when Nick Frost ambles into view, if not before.
The lessons from 2011? For all the glossy,
blanded-out remakes of horror gems, there are a few that put authentically new spin on the originals. And
the subtitle-averse might want to rethink their position: Ferociously original fright flicks
continue to escape every corner of the world.


text: I'm even a little confused by your example: "me iré después que tú (I'll leave after you)." This phrase sounds like awkward Spanish to me, but admittedly I'm no expert.. The same with "Nos vemos después (see you later)," 'in which I would expect "luego" rather than "despues." Your example seems more like "I'll see you afterward" referring to a specific event rather than just "I'll see you later on." But I could be totally wrong about all of that. That's just the way it seems to me. Like I said, I'm no expert at all.

Disclaimer:- I neither own nor earn anything from this story. Harry Potter and his world are the intellectual property of JK Rowling and associates.
A/N:- This will not be a long story, and it is pretty much all written. Please bear with me in the first chapter as I set the scene. As stated in the summary, Snape is alive contrary to what you read in this first chapter. I will also only be dealing with the relationship between Hermione and Severus, even though there are mentions of other relationships, this if wholly a Severus and Hermione fic. Having said all that, I hope you enjoy…
Chapter one – Near enough is not good enough
Standing at the great gates of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the austere witch in the black robes paused. Her wild curly mane was pulled back into a messy bun which sported two eagle feather quills she'd forgotten about. It all suddenly coalesced in her mind where she was about to go, she hadn't been back into that office since the day of the final battle almost twenty years ago.
Britain's Premier Potions mistress was here because Minerva McGonagall had sent her a mysterious and urgent sounding summons for afternoon tea, and even though Hermione had no idea what the headmistress of Hogwarts could want, she had left work early to attend because the missive had sounded so pressing. She sighed; there were definite perks to being the boss of the department, even if she did hate the job.
However, now she was looking at the huge stone facade of Hogwarts though, it all seemed a little daunting. She steeled her nerve; Hermione Granger was certain she could do this… after all she had been attending parent teacher interviews here for four years. Nothing had happened those times, right? Really, nothing had happened since that awful last year of school, so it must have been her imagination? The fact that she'd always asked Minerva to come to her, for afternoon teas and what not, was not noticeable, was it? Could it be that the astute old witch noticed, and this was why she had issued this invitation? Did someone finally know? How could they?
You see, there was something that she had guarded closely all these years. Hermione lived with a secret, an enigma even, from the period of the three months before the end of the war, and including her last year at Hogwarts. It had been a tumultuous time, and she had never allowed herself to share with anyone her feelings about that time.
She shivered for a number of different reasons as she stood, still gazing up at the castle. There were many things she recollected, but mostly she remembered the whispers in the night, an unmistakable voice, or stirring from sleep with his name falling from her lips in sheer soul twisting need. She had known she'd been dreaming; she had to be, it was just not possible. So many times, waking after dreaming he was just beyond her around the next corner, yet when she got there finding just another corner.
She'd never told anyone… How could you tell someone you had fallen in love with a ghost? Well that was not strictly true, she had fallen in love with him well and truly before that, but that year stuck in her mind, as she had spent much time pondering what had been going on. Could it have merely been an echo, or a memory of the wizard perhaps?
Many strange things happened after that final battle, and she had never once caught sight of him. Finally, when she couldn't fathom it, Sir Nicholas was the only one she'd confided in, one lonely winter's night during her wanderings when she couldn't sleep, and he had been sympathetic, but had told her that the person she was seeking wasn't there, well not as a ghost anyway.
The worst thing that year had been Potions class. Hermione knew she needed to take it if she wanted to be a Potions mistress, but to say the least, the classes were soul destroyingly boring, mediocre and mundane. She'd hated that it wasn't him, hated that no one censured her, questioned, or fought with her. She'd detested every minute of it.
The then young Gryffindor witch had loathed the constant stream of vacuous praise Potions professor, Horace Slughorn had heaped on her. She had longed to hear his, acidic tongue bringing her back to reality. In fact, she would have happily listened to his longed for voice, berate and belittle her efforts all day just to have him back. Then she reflected on the fact that for the last three months before the war, even that had changed as well. It was so unfair, he should still be here.
Delving further into her thoughts and biting her lip, with her hand on the huge iron gates, Hermione felt herself being sucked back into the pain again. During the last stages of the war against Voldemort, she had been captured and taken to Malfoy Manor. In the absence of Voldemort, her kidnappers had left at the mercy of Bellatrix Lestrange.
Hermione hadn't realised Harry had been caught as well, and she leant later that Snape had gone after him first, delivering him to The Burrow once rescued. Harry had told her afterwards, what their professor had done.
"He stunned four full grown Death Eaters, before any of them had time to reach for their wands. Then he used Legilimency to get the information he needed to find you," Harry had said in awe. "He was like a man possessed, and then he did something to each of their minds before we left." Her friend had shrugged to indicate that he didn't know what the professor had done before telling her, "I don't know what," and he'd gone silent watching Hermione fighting not to cry.
Present day Hermione shivered, recalling the acute agony of being a guest of Bellatrix Lestrange. She had only just been partly conscious when Snape had stormed into the Manor, but she could still picture the scowl that had been affixed to his face and his voluminous robes snapping as he strode into the room.
Even in her half unconscious state, Hermione had seen the look of surprise on the twisted witch's face as he'd thundered in and started throwing hexes at her. He'd spoken to her in his most acidic tones. "I always said if this particular witch was captured she would be mine, and yet I find you playing with my prize." Bellatrix was so surprised she just sat where she'd landed, her dagger hanging in her hand, still dripping its gore.
The insane Death Eater had already done significant damage, but Hermione still remembered that brutal rescue to this day, it played out in her mind yet again as if in a dream-like state. He'd grabbed her roughly by the arm. "I get to finish you Mudblood," he had asserted, and then turned stone-cold eyes to Bellatrix. She was already waiting for the show. "In private," he hissed, and had dragged Hermione mercilessly to the Apparition barrier. Being the current Hogwarts headmaster, he had then apparated them both into his office.
Even if she was partly unconscious, the next part Hermione Granger will remember until the day she dies. Initially, she had been so confused and hurt by what he'd said and done. He'd always been a cold and callous man but she'd never doubted him—not for a moment—well until this moment, and the way he was acting devastated her. Now, she was expecting to be violated in even more vile and sadistic ways, and by a wizard she'd trusted.
What she hadn't been prepared for however, were his silent tears splashing down on her as he gently swept her into his arms and carried her to his quarters to start healing her. "Shhh, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry," he'd murmured when she'd finally been unable to hold back her tears at the pain and humiliation. "You're safe now, go to sleep, little one," he encouraged softly.
Realising in that instant that it had been an act to save her and she was indeed safe, Hermione had lost consciousness.
Snape kept her secreted in the headmaster's chambers while she convalesced, and Hermione had understood why. News would have travelled fast among the Death Eater's inner-circle of his exploits to possess her; he couldn't let her go until they'd won.
Over the next three month Hermione Granger had found out that almost everything about the taciturn man was an act. She was surprised by his gentleness, and the care he took tending her injuries in the weeks that followed her rescue. He dressed the wounds that still required care, washed her and fed her when she was too weak to do it herself, and on occasion his resonant voice had even read to her.
In amongst everything that was going on she became his newest project, and she suspected, the one positive thing that kept him sane while the rest of the wizarding world went to hell in a hand-basket. She was his little secret, his unknown leverage over the rest of them.
Once she was strong enough, they started conversing, really talking. He appeared just as starved of decent conversation with sane people as she was. They discussed Potions, Arithmancy, Literature, Art, Music, literally anything and everything. Hermione discovered that he played the violin, and like everything he did, he did it well. She had the great joy of accompanying him on the piano. The Gryffindor witch hoped she'd made a difference to his unpleasant and stressful existence.
He never let his guard slip again like the night he'd rescued her. In fact, she reasoned he most likely thought she hadn't been conscious enough to even take it in. She was happy however, when some of the worry lines around his eyes would soften after they had conversed for a while, or played one of the pieces they loved, especially the Paganini Cantabile (1) that was their favourite.
However, more often than not he had be so exhausted that he would fall asleep in the chair that he had collapsed in after only a short time. In those instances, Hermione had always levitated him to his bed, and covered him with a warm blanket. They never spoke of it in the morning, but there was something in his expression that somehow conveyed his thanks.
Finally on the last day, when she was to be reunited with Harry and Ron, she'd thanked him sincerely for what he'd done for her, and asked him to be careful. Consoling herself with the fact that maybe when today was finished they could be friends. He promised that he would be on his guard, but he had been struck down by that hideous snake anyway. The day of the final battle she had lost the only mind she'd ever met that communicated with hers perfectly.
They had never even touched more than the platonic acts of helping one another, or the brush of finger tips over a book, but she had longed to hug him before he left that day, and wished he had have let his guard down just once more.
Once Hermione found out what had happened during the course of the battle, she snuck into the Shrieking Shack against Harry's advice, but she had to see, and if nothing else, say her goodbye to him. What she found startled her; there had been copious amounts of blood to be certain, but there had been no body, and no drag marks or footprints out of the gore.
It still made her cry. Not the gut clenching howling sobs she'd allowed herself on the floor of the shack, post battle. No, she managed to contain that sort of emotion now, but there wasn't a day that passed when her soul did not weep quietly for him, internally where no one could see it.
Coming back from her thoughts, Hermione scolded herself and made her feet start walking up the drive. Recollections of Severus Snape always turned into thoughts even more maudlin. Her failed marriage, she still cringed on the inside when she thought of her ex-husband.
It had only taken a short time for Hermione to realise what a monumental mistake she'd made taking that step. Among many small spats, their first big argument had been about children. "I want children as soon as we get married," Ron had announced to her the day after she'd graduated from Hogwarts. "Now you've finished wasting your time at Hogwarts, we can settle down." He'd kept talking, oblivious to the growing anger on her face.
"Wasting my time," she'd finally shrieked. "Ron," she had countered in sheer exasperation when he'd looked shocked at her outburst. "It's important to me to finish my education and I will not become pregnant and ruin that," she had returned.
"But you have finished," Ron said snarkily. "I don't know why you bothered anyway; Kingsley gave us all the jobs we wanted."
"I don't think that was right, and no, I haven't finished my education. My parents always planned that I would go to University," she was right in his face now. "And I'm going to as well."
Unfortunately this is where Molly had waded into their private, but loud discussion and had quickly quashed Hermione's argument. "Oh no dear, you can't do that, think about poor Ron, he's waited patiently for you for over a year now."
That was it, she realised, it was always 'poor Ron', she'd never really thought about it before she'd agreed to marry him, but this coupled with Molly's 'good basic Wizarding values' conspired to make her life a nightmare. Molly Weasley's preoccupation with her son's well being was a constant thorn in Hermione's already pickled side, and she had very quickly realised she was never going to win.
Hermione knew Ron had never really been content with her going back to finish her seventh year when Hogwarts had reopened, but it was the right thing to do, and she had won that round. Now however, Hermione knew if she wanted to marry him and go to University, she'd have to give some ground.
After all she did love him, didn't she? There was always that niggle of doubt there, but what other option did she have? She had to stop pining for a dead man—who would very likely have been horrified to know how she felt anyway—and join the land of the living… right?
So, with her stomach rolling mutinously, and still sceptical about the impending union, but determined not to be left behind, even when her father was still trying to talk her out of the marriage as he was escorting her up the aisle. Hermione Granger had buckled under and married Ronald Weasley.
Hermione's parents had set up a University fund for her when she was born and she'd started attending the Wizarding branch of Cambridge just before her marriage. She didn't see Ron much during this time. She started her years at Uni writing to him every day, he rarely wrote back, and visited even less.
However, one evening, during the fourth year of her course, Ron had turned up unexpectedly with Harry and Ginny in tow. Hermione was in the midst of researching her major project, they were in the initial test stages, and she hadn't welcomed them turning up unannounced. Unfortunately she soon found herself felling into old practices, Ron had pouted and she'd given in, abandoning her lab for drinks at the local pub, and in the process ruining a month's work.
That's when it had happened. She had been so busy she hadn't been taking her Contraceptive Potion. After all, what was the point of taking a potion when you weren't having sex?
Another thing she'd done, she realised, was conveniently forgotten she was married, and it came as a nasty shock now to see who she was encumbered to. Alarm bells rang in her head, and she instantly wanted to forget it again. During the time she had been away from Ron they had grown further apart, and she had finished growing up.
All of these realisations hit her in the space of an hour. Looking at Harry and Ginny and seeing how happy they were, noting all the little touches and caresses they shared and the evident care and respect they had for one another. They already had two children, and Molly was beside herself with happiness. James had been born about six months after Hermione and Ron's wedding, and Albus just last year.
Hermione watched how Harry saw to Ginny's needs, held her chair out for her, made sure she had a drink etc, the list went on. She compared this with the time she was spending with her husband. After ruining her project without a word of understanding or apology, he had proceeded to spend spent the rest of the evening pouting because she wouldn't go to the loos with him and have sex. "Ron, I'm twenty three, and I'm not a trollop," she'd snapped irritatedly. That was all he seemed to think marriage was for.
Finally in desperation to get some peace and quiet—and maybe get back to her lab—she had decided to take him back to her room. However, the now drunken Ron had had other ideas and as soon as they were outside, he roughly manhandled her into the alley beside the pub. Without thinking she gave in and let him have her up against the wall in the hope that afterwards he would just go away and leave her alone.
It lasted all of three minutes. Her loving husband rutted with her like a prize buck, and once he'd come, he had promptly thrown up on her. Hermione was disgusted, she cleaned herself off, told him she wanted a divorce, and apparated away feeling violated and dirty. She'd had to eat her words six weeks later, when she discovered she was pregnant.
Hearing shouting, Hermione looked at the auburn-headed teenager and then to the brown head of curls of her younger brother as they ran towards her down the drive, and then she recalled her utter despair at her daughter Rose's conception.
Her little girl had been one, when it was then finally discovered that poor Ron hadn't been able to keep his fly shut either, and somehow this had been Hermione's fault well. She'd sat there incredulous that particular Sunday just before dinner at The Burrow, when Molly had instantly pronounced after Ron's infidelity had been splashed across the front page of the Daily Prophet. "All your problems will magically disappear if you just stop sulking over that silly university, and treated your husband and master with the respect he deserves."
It had taken both Ginny and Harry to restrain her so she wouldn't leap over the table and throttle the self-righteous grin off Ron's cheating face. Hermione managed to wandlessly show the smug bastard and his mother what kind of respect he deserved though, and she hexed the wayward son-of-a-bitch, six ways into next year, and told her meddling mother-in-law, exactly where she could stick her idea of the perfect wizarding marriage.
Hermione had then taken her clapping and laughing daughter from her high-chair and apparated them straight to her parents. The Gryffindor witch had refused to eat her words again exactly one week after this when she'd found out Hugo was on the way. She'd been caught like before, and it would be her luck that she'd given in to his harassing just to get it over with.
She wasn't in the habit of having sex with him anymore, and he hadn't pestered her for months. Again she'd been researching something, because even if she couldn't finish her degree she could keep working on her private research and she'd wanted to get back to it.
Hermione had realised after Rose's conception that she was no more to him than a convenient port in a storm. Now the picture had formed completely, she was no more to him than a convenience when his current girlfriend was not available. It left her wondering if that was what had happened that night in Cambridge as well.
There was no way she was going back to put up with more from him. Anyway Ron had signed a new contract with the Chudley Canons and was gone, apparently just as happy to be given his freedom.
That was fourteen years ago. Her parents had supported her through everything, and once Hugo had arrived, they encouraged her to finish her degree so she could support her family. Her mother took an extended leave of absence from their Practice, and looked after Rose and Hugo.
The Granger's lived quite close to Cambridge so Hermione had been able to come home each night.
Her decree absolute came through the day before she graduated University. It was a traumatic, but also exhilarating time.
Pulling herself from the recollections, Hermione was engulfed in two hugs. She sighed, it was close to the end of term and she'd missed both her children. "How did you two know I was coming?"
"James, told us, he's been sent to meet you and escort you up," Hugo stated excitedly, and started to explain in great detail the timeline of events since lunch, ending with, "Are you here because of the Potions explosion, Mum?" he asked, blinking at her.
Hermione tousled his hair and straightened his red striped tie. "Auntie Minnie didn't say why she wanted to see me, so I'm in the dark as much as anyone." She hugged them both tightly again, and patted down the blue lapels of Rose's robes when she released them. Ron had never understood why Rose had not been sorted into Gryffindor, and worse, he'd always given his daughter the impression that she'd done something wrong because she hadn't been.
Hermione cupped Rose's cheek. She was almost grown up; she'd be fifteen this year. Just by the sparkle in her brown eyes and the roses in her cheeks, Hermione could tell Rose had something to tell her. The acerbic Potions mistress looked past her daughter, to the head of windswept blond hair. The young man had the unmistakable lanky and muscular body of a teenage Malfoy. He was waiting in the shadows with Roberto Parkinson-Zabini, and Rose's best friends Lily Potter and Alice Longbottom. Their other cousins James and Albus joined them, and they all started down the steps to greet Hermione. Seeing where she was looking, Rose hugged her mother again, and whispered excitedly, "He finally kissed me, Mum. It's official, we're a couple."
Hermione swallowed hard. "That's perfect, love." Hermione found herself fighting tears. She'd never felt as happy as her daughter obviously was at this moment.
They were halfway down the stairs, when Hugo broke the silence with a mischievous grin. "I wrote to Dad last night," he told them slyly, his meaning all too clear.
"You little twerp," Rose rounded on her grinning brother and her wand was out before Hermione could open her mouth, and then they were gone. "Hey guys, help me catch this little dweeb," she shouted, as Hugo went to shoot past the group and in through the great doors.
Something else Ron didn't understand was why Harry and Ginny had become friends with Draco and Astoria. It had just developed, and the four of them had simply included Hermione and her kids as part of their group. If Rose was going to reveal her relationship with Scorpius to her father, Hermione was going to have to make certain that happened under the right circumstances.
Hermione shook her head, at the playfulness of the group as she watched James Potter approaching her. "The Headmistress sent me to escort you up, Aunt Hermione." It was like looking at a teenage Harry all over again, but at the moment with just a touch of Percy Weasley's pompousness thrown in. James Potter was in his last year, and like his pompous uncle, he was head boy.
"Thank you James," Hermione said, snickering to herself. Auntie 'Mione was obviously not grown up enough now, and they walked in very reverent silence. I wonder what kind of accident happened? I hope no-one was hurt. Hermione pondered.
The closer they came to the Headmistress' office the more eager Hermione became not to show exactly how nervous she was. It had already occurred to her that she would be coming face to face with Professor Snape's portrait. A little part of her was happy about that, even if the greater part was terrified.

Kevin Smith and Spike Lee have very little in common – on the surface.
Smith is the pudgy fanboy fave behind "Clerks" and "Chasing Amy." Lee is the combustible auteur who gave us "Do the Right Thing" and "Malcolm X."
But both directors find their careers in serious decline, and they're not going out without a fight. But instead of making great movies to smite their critics, they're opening up their mouths far too often.
Smith has been playing this game for years now, ranting via Twitter and any nearby media outlet about how little his work his valued, all the while keeping up a pseudo-self deferential shtick. His latest salvo – blasting the Independent Spirit Awards for daring to snub his crude horror film "Red State."
Lee is rocking a similar boat. His best work appears behind him, and yet he can't stop talking as if he were still the same wunderkind who bowled audiences over with "Do the Right Thing" back in 1989. Remember his ungainly dust up with living legend Clint Eastwood about the number of minorities in Eastwood's World War II film "Flags of Our Fathers?"
Lee recently let loose an expletive-filled tirade against Hollywood during a screening of his newest movie at the Sundance Film Festival. The irony that Lee's latest, "Red Hook Summer," might not have gained such a prestigious festival birth had Lee's name not been made two decades ago wasn't lost on the director. He acknowledged that fact indirectly during his rant.
So, is "Red Hook Summer" any good? Here's TheWrap.com's take on the film, which finds Lee playing the same character he developed for "Do the Right Thing:"
"Red Hook Summer" is confounding, divisive and messy. It's a lament disguised as a comedy that turns into a brutal drama and ends up as an epic.
Others were less kind, Tweeting that the film marked "one of the worst films to ever premiere at Sundance." Hey, it couldn't be as bad as Smith's "Cop Out," right?
It would be great to see either Smith, Lee or both directors return to the headlines for all the right reasons. Instead, we're left to feast on press-grabbing antics rather that movies that make us think, laugh and appreciate two formerly outsized talents.

Digital Underground Tickets
Greg "Shock G" Jacobs, from Oakland, California, formed Digital Underground, the alternative rap group in 1987, in Berkeley. He remained the only constant member. Their major influence was the punk rock bands of the '70s. Added sampling brought in influences of Rockadelic, a sub-genre of west coast rap.
In '89, he released a single and video, "Doowutchyalike." In '90, "The Humpty Dance" gained fame. He appeared in the '91 film, "Nothing But Trouble." After twenty years of touring, they disbanded in '08, but also confirmed the release of a new album, "â?¦Cuz A d.u. Party Don't Stop."

for Better Farming
Search from the largest Agri Info Bank
Food and
fibre market
By Siraj-ul-Hasan
The food and fibre market system in Pakistan works with the
participation of both public and private sectors.
In the public sector, its functions are shared by the federal
and provincial governments, which relate to agricultural
administration, crop prices, procurement, data collection, and
dissemination. These are performed through a number of
departments, directorates and autonomous and semi-autonomous
Agricultural administration: Although, agriculture by
constitution is a provincial subject but the federal
government has taken upon itself to develop a policy framework
in consultation with the provincial governments.
At the federal level it is the ministry of food, agriculture
and livestock (Minfal) which is headed by a cabinet minister.
Agricultural Price Commission is another important
organization of Minfal.
The ministry works in close cooperation with the Planning
Commission. Besides, there are a number of semi-autonomous
bodies and most permanent among them are Wapda, the ADBP now
renamed as the Zarai Turraqiati Bank of Pakistan (ZTBP) and
the Pakistan Agricultural Research Council (Parc).
One of the most important functions of the federal government
is to provide and manage food security by fixing production
targets and ensuring the supply of inputs. Any shortfall is
met through imports.
The government keeps a watch on production and in case of a
pessimistic production outlook arrangements are made to import
food grains and other essential commodities.
The involvement of the public sector in the storage, and
distribution varies. Most imports and local supplies are
handled by the government. Their retail marketing and sales
are done through private sector.
Production, storage and distribution of seeds are also in the
public sector although private sector is now being encouraged
to enter into this area. The Punjab and Sindh Seed Development
Corporations produce recommended variety of seeds through the
registered growers which are then distributed through their
own retail outlets.
Water is a major input and its resources are developed by the
government. About a quarter of the total water available at
the farm-gate is made available by the tubewells in the
private sector.
Crop prices and procurement: Crop prices and procurement
programmes were started in early 1950s. Over the time these
covered all major crops like wheat, rice, cotton and even the
non-traditional oilseeds such as sunflower, safflower and
Among minor crops potatoes and onions were covered. The
marketing of wheat, rice, cotton and surgar cane were handled
through the Rice Export Corporation of Pakistan (RECP) and the
Cotton Export Corporation (CEC) which have now been disbanded
and their functions are performed partially by the Trading
Corporation of Pakistan (TCP).
The Pakistan Central Cotton Committee advises the government
on various matters of cotton marketing. A cotton grading
institute has also started working since two years back.
Data collection: Various agencies, both at federal and
provincial levels are engaged in data collection and
dissemination. Crop production estimates are prepared by Crop
Reporting Services in Punjab, the Bureau of Statistics in
Sindh and the Statistical Sections of Agriculture Departments
in the NWFP and Balochistan.
These estimates are sent to the federal ministry where these
are consolidated. Their publication is the responsibility of
the Federal Bureau of Statistics (FBS) The arrangements for
collecting harvest prices are, however, very weak. Most of the
data is collected on the daily, weekly, and monthly basis.
However, many commodities experience seasonal shifts in supply
and demand that are not actually reflected in the reported
prices. In general, flat price trends across a crop suggest
that the price levels are not being reflected due to either
the non-representative samples or the misquoted prices.
The methods for averaging prices, over time, are also flawed
because of the non-monitoring of quantities being sold in
different markets at various times. Functions performed by the
private sector in the food and fibre system are enumerated and
specified in brief as under:
1. Production: Agricultural commodities production is a
private activity. It benefits from public investments in
supporting infrastructure and services but responds directly
to investments in farm capital.
Agricultural technology introduced so far, seems to have
reached a plateau. Further increase in production will
probably be not so fast and easy as the public policies and
investment programmes attempt to secure a much wider adoption
of the proven technological packages.
It will also be useful to improve the technological package.
The present package is chartered by tractors, cultivators,
tubewells, plant protection and improved seed supported by
relatively stable prices. This has served usefully in the case
of four major crops (wheat, rice, cotton and sugar cane) but
the gap between potential and actual achievements is still
Private sector plays an important role in providing various
agricultural inputs. About 30 per cent of the fertilizer is
manufactured in private sector. The importance of a sound seed
programme capable of supplying quality seed to farmers cannot
be over-emphasized. Despite its vital importance the
percentage of improved quality seed in the total is pretty
2. Transportation: The private sector largely contributes in
transportation to far flung areas where means of
transportation are scarce or defective, farm products are
generally sold in the primary markets.
These markets are capable of absorbing small and large
quantities which are moved to secondary markets. All transport
between villages and markets or villages to sugar mills,
cotton ginneries and rice husking mills is done by private
3. Storage: Farmers and village traders have developed little
storage capacity. It is difficult for small farmers to
withhold small marketable surpluses for better prices.
Grains are stored in earthen containers, in pots and jute bags
or underground pits. It is estimated that the producer gets
upto 65 per cent of the consumer price for non-perishable
commodities and about 25 per cent for perishables.
Storage capacities present in markets can be attributed to
private sector alone. Private sector carries credit in
providing storage arrangement for the perishables as a number
of firms have constructed cold storages in and around fruits
and vegetable markets.
4. Processing: At present all flour mills are in private
sector, along with rice husking and sugar mills. Other
industries include jute goods, cotton ginning, cotton textiles
and meet processing.
5. Trading/marketing: Marketing structure ranges from free
operations to substantial government intervention by way of
fixation of floor prices, procurement quotas and prices,
export quotas and credit control.

This is Episode 3 of Season 11 and it had me chuckling in the first five minutes. I'm only about half way through and even though the whole episode isn't "funny" persay, it is interesting. The summary goes something like:
"Moments of total, world-shaking bliss are not easy to come by. Maybe that's what makes them feel so life-altering when they strike. And so worth chasing. This hour: stories of striving, grasping, tripping, and falling for happiness, perfection, and ideals."

It's hard to believe that another semester and another year are almost "history"!! This one has gone by very quickly as have the 22(!!) years I've served as Director and Dean of Honors. I have been particularly impressed with a number of things this year and I wanted to take a moment to tell you about them. You have again distinguished yourselves in a variety of ways. An increasing number of you have gotten into the best, most prestigious medical, law, dental and graduate schools. The jobs you have been offered are absolutely wonderful. More of you than ever before have GPA's over 3.3, over 3.5, over 3.7 and over 3.9. What amazes me about this is that your accomplishments come as full-time students who work and manage various family responsibilities; you are not, in the main, students who go to school and do nothing else! Two of you won the highly prestigious Barry Goldwater Scholarships. I am impressed with the thousands of hours you donate to community agencies, your houses of worship and the University. You make what you "touch" better than how you found it. You demonstrate amazing creativity in your academic activities. I see this clearly in your seminar projects and in your theses. You have published more papers in professional journals and presented more papers at national, regional and state conferences this year than ever before. I am impressed with the creative writing projects you have completed, the art shows at which you have shown your work and the music recitals at which you have performed. You are a good, talented, bright group of human beings whom I am proud to know. As I look back at the past year, a number of things stand out to me. We had a great summer book for new students and all worked well. 500 freshpeople attended the fall convocation and enjoyed a keynote talk. This year we will have a summer book devoted to Frankenstein and we will continue to utilize the web to have students "discuss" the book. This year's class of freshpeople had the highest average SAT/ACT scores ever. More of you participated in study abroad programs than ever before. We had more students compete for the national scholarships than ever before and we had more winners than ever. Our "Afternoon/Evening With ..." conversation series gave us the opportunity to meet the Mayor, the FL Orchestra concertmaster and other dignitaries. Our Research Symposium and Celebration attracted as many presentations as last year and was a wonderful showcase for your work. We recently welcomed Dr. Lucas and Ms. Nelson to the College. The Mayor, a judge and a very successful entrepreneur were among special faculty who taught this year. Next year, take advantage of the opportunity to go to conferences to present your research, enter our research contest, come to our picnics and parties, look into the national scholarships, join our band and enjoy making music with friends. There is much that you can do now which will be harder to do later on. I hope you have a great summer. Be productive, relax, have fun, get away. Do the things you dream of; don't wait too long to follow your hearts. Know that we are here should you need anything. I look forward to seeing you in the fall. To those of you who are graduating, you have my best wishes and those of Deans Yavneh and Kleine, Dr. Rundus, Dr. Lucas, Ms. Geiger, Ms. Lazzara, Mr. Mejias, Mr. Lucien, Ms. Hill, Ms. Lanier, Ms. Nelson, Ms. Carlton, Mr. Friday, Ms. Field, Mr. Liu, Ms. Avramenko, Ms. Schumacher, Ms Kane and Ms. Dorosz for success and happiness. I truly hope that all your dreams are realized, your lives are filled with joy and good health and that you help to make the lives of others better. Please keep in touch with Honors and let me know how you are doing. I really do care. Farewell! Peace. Stuart Silverman

Disclaimer: Belongs to JK Rowling
She watched him out of the corner of her eye, turning the pages of her book, not looking at them. Even if she wasn't giving him all of her attention, she still wouldn't be able to focus. With one simple act, a few brief words he had turned her world upside down.
Working in Egypt had never been in her plans, leaving England was ridiculous. It was her home. The simple truth was that there wasn't much in England that made it worth her while to hang around, everything that she had thought would be hers, wasn't. Romances that seemed destined fell apart at the seams, the pieces scattering everywhere. Doors that she thought would open to her automatically, given who she was, and all that she was capable of, shut in her face. The rejection seemed to be coming at her from all corners, and she was helpless to fight back.
For a while she had floundered, wondering what on earth she could do. She didn't want to look like she was giving up, but it was the only option left to her. Goblins it seemed didn't care if you were Muggle born or not, she had the brains they wanted, she could have had a beard down to her navel and they still would have hired her.
Egypt was completely different to anything she was ever used to, heat beyond measure. She had ran through all the possible magical cooling methods within an hour of arriving. Arriving back at her accommodation, it seemed the heat wasn't the only surprise. Her supervisor for her training period, was none other than Bill Weasley.
There had been an adjustment period, but they found their groove working together. Academically they were perfectly matched, unfortunately their tempers were identical also. It just wasn't a normal day at the office without things flying, and words sharp as swords passing between them. For the most part they worked well together, a perfect match.
It was towards the end of her training that things changed, down an tomb, their sensors going crazy, as the magic flowed. It seemed the ancient walls of the tomb couldn't withhold the magic assaulting them, and it was only by Bill's quick thinking that they managed to escape. In the heat of the moment, she had froze; all the spells, and charms that she knew vanished. She was suddenly a girl, tiny, insubstantial compared to her surroundings, if he had grabbed her, and taken her out of there, a simple Apparation.
She had fallen to her knees after they Apparated to safety, he had clutched her to him.
I've got you, he had told her over and over.
Turning a page in her absentmindedness, she felt her bracelet move. With it's lucky charm. It didn't help her when she needed it, some lucky charm.
Her real lucky charm was sitting on the couch next to her.
The charm just didn't measure up.

WASHINGTON -- Politics is an imitative business. Four years ago George Bush won the presidency by convincing voters he was not Michael S. Dukakis. Bill Clinton is following exactly the same strategy this year.
That is the message the Democratic presidential nominee has been sending so insistently in the two weeks since the convention: I am not Michael Dukakis.
In 1988, Dukakis left his convention for a brief foray into Texas with his vice presidential nominee, Lloyd Bentsen, and then retired to the bucolic pleasures of western Massachusetts and the heavy burdens of state government. By contrast, Clinton came charging out of his convention with a 1,000-mile bus trip across eight Eastern and Midwestern states, followed by a campaign swing through California and Washington and another to Louisiana.

How does a projector work?
How do projectors work?
There are two types of projectors: The two types of projectors are LCD and DLP. LCD: LCD stands for Liquid Crystal Display. The way this places an image on a screen is fa…scinating and not nearly as complex as you might imagine. A bulb is set up to shine a fairly powerful light through a prism. The prism splits the light into its component colors and these are sent through small LCD screens. The screens themselves are sent signals to allow just so much of the light through at specific pixel locations. The light is then beamed through a lens onto a screen where the images can be seen by the human eye. DLP: DLP, or Digital Light Processing is a bit more complex. This time the light is shined through a spinning color wheel onto a chip that is mounted with hundreds of thousands of tiny mirrors. The mirrors are turned off or on by electronic impulses according to the need for the color at that moment. Even though only one color is shown at a time, one color follows another so quickly that the primary colors seem to blend into the appropriate color. The image appears to be constantly lit, when in fact small parts of it are constantly flickering. This technology was developed by Texas Instruments and is based on an older technology that was used for color television in the 1950s.

How does a video projector work?
A video projector takes a video and reflects it off a mirror. Thevideo is played on a screen that is a solid color preferably white.
Is a data projector an input or output device?
It is a Output device as it projects images and text.
Is a data projector input or output?
A data projector is both an input and output device as it takesimages and then displays them on its screen. Data projectors areused in schools and businesses.
Similarities of data projector and overhead projector?
The only real similarity that I can think of is they both project images onto a wall or projector screen.
What is the difference between a data projector and an overhead projector?
A Data Projector (referred to as Digital Projector) is a projector that gets its image from a Digital Source, such as VGA (computer), RCA (the most common A/V input), S-Video …(another form of video input), and some others. These projectors are most commonly used along with DLP or LCD Technology. An Overhead Projector is an older style of projection, common in Education (Schools). These projectors are totally manual and require you to put a transparent image onto glass to project the image overhead.
What is a data projector used for?
To project the image of a computer video output onto a screen or surface.
What are the Advantages of a data projector to a teacher?

What is the difference between a data projector and a LCD projector?
A data projector is designed for computer projection. It typically only has VGA inputs. An LCD projector is the most common type of projector, which includes data projectors a…nd home theater projectors.
How do you connect a data projector to a TV?
This may be difficult. If the television has video outputs, you can connect these to the projector. Most of the connections found on a tv are inputs, however.
How do you make your computer work as a projector?
Do you mean connect it to a projector? If so, you need a projector, your computer and a special screen cord. Connect the cord to your computer and projector and is should work…!

Where did the data projector originate?
The earliest projector recognized as a useful data projector was the BarcoVision projector, introduced in 1981 by Barco, a Belgian company. The projector used three cathode ra…y tubes, one each for red, green and blue images. Although CRT projectors had been around for some years, the image resolution was not sufficient to be useful. The BarcoVision was used for the European launch of the IBM PC. The projector was large and heavy, weighing in at more than seventy pounds, took about one hour to line up and achieve thermal stability and was notoriously unreliable. In the US Gene Dolgoff is credited with the production of the first LCD projector in 1984. Dolgoff has a long history of image processing and display developments with the LCD projector being one of his earliest. The CRT projectors had a head start on LCD models and it took almost two decades for the LCD projectors to fully dominate the projection market.

SFFTV Special Issue CFP: "When the Astronaut is a Woman" and Open Call for Submissions
CFP: "When the Astronaut is a Woman: Beyond the Frontier in Film and Television" special issue of Science Fiction Film and Television
Guest Editors: Lorrie Palmer and Lisa Purse
With the release of Hidden Figures (Melfi, 2016), public perception of the iconic era of the space race was reconfigured. The central image of the white male astronaut was replaced by one in which women of color dominated mathematics, science, and technology, thereby prompting a new cultural conversation. Indeed, this narrative of science fact signals another significant re-embodiment in our science fictions: the female astronaut.
Spaceflight and the astronauts who embark on mythic journeys of exploration have long been in the shadow of the macho military test pilots of the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo missions. These men evoke nostalgia through their Right Stuff swagger, their personae as space race Cold Warriors, and as a collective Kennedy-esque metaphor for the American frontier. In the postwar decades of space travel, "the body of the astronaut [was] increasingly used as a projection screen for anxieties concerning the stability of gender categories" (Brandt 2006), so it is significant that recent iterations are moving beyond the traditional white male astronaut. We see this in the diversification of representations of space travelers in television and fiction film, particularly along the lines of gender, race and sexuality, as corporations race to Mars with crowd-sourced crews, and entertainment media revise cultural narratives about space exploration.
This special issue of Science Fiction Film and Television, therefore, seeks to integrate this contemporary moment of challenge to the hegemonic imagery of space travel by examining the genre's aesthetic and representational characteristics and their relation to wider cultural discourses around gender, race, technology and ecology, and to theoretical debates about the body, technoscience and the post-human.
Along these lines, contributors may wish to re-evaluate depictions of female astronauts in films like Contact (1997), Solaris (2002), Event Horizon (1997), or Supernova (2000), or to map more contemporary representational trends in films such as Interstellar (2014), The Martian (2015), the Star Wars or Star Trek reboots, or Ripley's legacy in the recent installments of the Aliens franchise. Television series like Dark Matter (2015-), Ascension (2014), The Expanse (2015-), or the new Star Trek: Discovery (2017-) would be of particular interest to this special issue. At the heart of these texts are female astronaut-protagonists who must negotiate their relationship to the legacy of existing depictions of space exploration, while also speaking to their contemporary context. Ultimately then, we ask how the reconfiguration of space race history—now made visible in Hidden Figures—broadens the frontier of science fiction scholarship.
Please send proposals by 30 September 2017 to Lorrie Palmer, firstname.lastname@example.com and to Lisa Purse, firstname.lastname@example.com with an author's bio and a short (5-7 entries) bibliography.
Science Fiction Film and Television also has a year-round open reading period. Preferred length for articles is approximately 7000-9000 words; all topics related to science fiction film, television, and related media will be considered. Typical response time is within three months. Check the journal website at Liverpool University Press for full guidelines for contributors; please direct any individualized queries to the editors, Gerry Canavan (firstname.lastname@example.com) and Dan Hassler-Forest (firstname.lastname@example.com).

* I have spent the entirety of my academic career so far watching the intensified hollowing-out of my profession. The destruction is not limited to those friends and grad-school colleagues whose "job hunt" turned up nothing—or turned up academic jobs which make the same demands as the tenure track without the same job security. The harm can be counted, too, in the numberless person-hours every academic I know has spent tailoring job application materials, drafting custom syllabuses, and performing all the other rituals of applicant abjection. If you care about the work scholars do, the atmosphere is demoralizing. It is, to be sure, worse in worse jobs: when I was a part-time adjunct, I found the isolation particularly depressing, and I liked my "individualized" health insurance plan even less. But even in a good job with outstanding colleagues and students all around, something eats away at the ordinary routines of my academic life: all the day-to-day work of simply doing the job (teaching the students, carrying on the research, going to the meetings, the meetings, the meetings) takes on more than a tinge of denial, something for the few of us who have good academic jobs to do while we wait for the last curtain to fall on professional scholarship. Nor is it encouraging to witness the parade of more active forms of denial: bad-faith solutions, illusory comforts, and intellectualized excuses for selfishness. But mostly I regret the good work that could have been done by all of us in a better, more just system.

Vietnam has generated record revenues from its fresh fruit and vegetable exports so far this year thanks to supply shortages elsewhere in Asia, reports Vietnamnews (VNS).
The country's produce export revenues for the first 10 months of 2011 reached US$515m – a 40.6 per cent rise over the same period last year, according to Vietnam's Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT).
Officials claimed that natural disasters abroad, specifically the devastating flooding in Thailand, had cut market supplies of certain products in Asia, pushed up prices and strengthened demand for Vietnamese offer.
"Export revenues have increased month by month," one MoIT official told VNS, adding that this is the first year Vietnam's fruit and vegetable industry have achieved such results.
The ministry added that Vietnamese fruit exports to the European Union and the US are unaffected by the regions' weak economies, and that volumes to these markets would remain stable until the end of the year.
Demand for tropical fruit in the US in particular is on the rise as consumers there develop a taste for the exotic, the MoIT said.
Officials added that considerable improvements in Vietnam's produce quality, thanks to government support, have also helped drive up the country's export volumes and revenues.
"The government has supported farmers in applying new technologies for purposes of developing more competitive products," one official told the publication.

Washington: NASA has developed a space harpoon to take samples from comets with surgical precision without landing on the rugged celestial bodies.
Engineers at the US space agency`s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, have built a trial harpoon that is six feet tall.
The bow is made out of a pair of springs normally used to provide the suspension for trucks. The bow string is made out of steel cable half an inch thick.
It can fire projectiles at speeds of more than 100ft per second. Test projectiles are fired into large drums filled with sand, rock salt, ice or pebbles.
"We had to bolt it to the floor, because the recoil made the whole testbed jump after every shot," the BBC quoted the project`s lead engineer, Donald Wegel as saying.
The engineers believe it would be safer to collect comet material using the equipment rather than trying to land on the celestial bodies.
NASA said the space harpoon could be projected "with surgical precision" from a spacecraft hovering above the target.
Experts said this would avoid the risk of trying to anchor the craft to a comet`s rugged surface.
Comets are much smaller than planets and have much lower gravity as a consequence, so a landed spacecraft would have to find some way of attaching itself to the object to avoid floating off.
NASA said that the samples from comets could reveal the origins of the planets and how life was created on Earth.
Comets are made up of frozen chunks of ice, gas and dust. They orbit the sun and, if they are close enough to the star, project a tail in the opposite direction made up of ionized gases.
