After a Swiss court reportedly ordered an Israeli oil firm to compensate Iran over a scrapped joint venture, Israel said Thursday that its laws prohibited any payment to "the enemy."
Iranian state news agency IRNA said Wednesday that the court had found Israel's Trans-Asian Oil (TAO) liable for payment of $1.1 billion to the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC).
It said that NIOC and an Israeli company had signed an agreement in 1968 to transport Iranian oil to the Jewish state across the Red Sea.
But after the 1979 Islamic revolution which overthrew Iran's pro-Western shah, the new regime cancelled the contract because it did not recognize the Jewish state.
Tehran says it was owed $450 million when the partnership ended. The Israeli finance ministry on Thursday issued a carefully-worded statement which neither confirmed nor denied the IRNA report.
"Without commenting on the substance of the matter, we should remember that in accordance with the laws on trading with the enemy, it is prohibited to transfer funds to the enemy, which includes the National Iranian Oil Company," it said.
"It is highly doubtful that Israel will actually pay the debt," said an expert quoted by Israeli defense analyst Yossi Melman in Maariv newspaper on Thursday.
Iran's Shia Islamist leadership is the Jewish state's arch foe, funding numerous terrorist groups committed to Israel's destruction - including Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Hezbollah - and repeatedly calling for the destruction of the State of Israel entirely.
Israel also accuses Iran of seeking to develop nuclear arms via its illegal nuclear program.
Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has repeatedly compared the Islamic republic to Hitler's Nazis, while Tehran regards the Jewish state as "Little Satan".
The premier is an implacable foe of any easing of international sanctions on Tehran as part of a nascent deal meant to prevent it acquiring nuclear arms.

Quick Hits of the Week
- We have a habit of letting our mood be easily affected by changes that occur around us. A new job. A new war. A broken lamp. A national election. Are they blessings that bring us hope, or curses that make us despair? The truth is, your answer at the moment may not be your same answer in a month. Dan Miller reminds us that how we perceive a change has almost no impact on the final story.
- Speaking of change, education has been taking a beating lately. See, the current model that American schools use to educate children has its roots in our Industrial Age, when universal education was implemented. The problem is that the overall structure hasn't changed much, but we're in the Information Age now. So, Seth Godin wants to know if we're going to continue to applaud schools that churn out mediocre factory workers? Rethan Salam reports about how some are working to prepare children for life in this era, by embracing the novel ideas of more personal responsibility, and that everyone has something to teach. While over at Khan Academy, they're actually doing something amazing and innovative in education. The only way the next decade doesn't result in an amazing change in education is if we're scared out of it.
- Another area where change has been slowly creeping up on the world is the War on Drugs. I've read some about Richard Branson recently, and I am impressed with his sense of vision and his love for innovation. So, it was no surprise to me when he wrote that it was time to end the international war on drugs.
- An area where our drug war has been a massive failure is how it has turned our everyday policemen into pseudo-soldiers. Head over and take this quiz that Radley Balko put together, see if you can tell the difference: Cop or Soldier?
- While you're playing guessing games, try your hand at this one: Professor or Hobo? I think this puts a nice bow on today's Quick Hits. Come back and tell me how you did.

For trans actors, getting cast isn't easy — especially up against Scarlett Johansson
'If we don't get the opportunities, we're not going to get the chance to become those bankable names'
If Alec Butler wants a part in a movie or a play, he's mostly had to write it himself.
The Cape Breton born, Toronto-based trans actor has written films and plays starring himself as things are "very dry" otherwise.
"It's disappointing and kind of depressing to be a trans actor in this country, in North America," he said.
- Scarlett Johansson faces new backlash over trans role
- Casting controversy blamed for Ghost in the Shell failure
So he was disheartened to see yet another trans role going to a non-transgender actor — this time, Scarlett Johansson, one of the top grossing actors in Hollywood. She will play a transgender man in Rub & Tug, a film about crime boss Dante (Tex) Gill, who ran an empire of massage parlours. He was born a female but identified as a man.
"It shows her privilege," said Butler, of Johansson. "It's bad form on her part to take another role away from a trans actor who could use the work, use the exposure [and] portray a trans person more authentically."
Ahh, yes. The resemblance between Dante Tex Gill and Scarlett Johansson is striking 🙄 pic.twitter.com/9jvMMgJDiJ—@AceOfBens
Acting is 'pretending'
Johansson will also serve as the film's producer. Trans actor Jesse Todd thinks the actress should have used that influence to say "this should go to a trans actor."
"Scarlet Johansson is a great actor, no one is denying that, but it's going to be so much richer if you actually have a trans actor playing that part." She faced similar criticism for playing a Japanese woman in 2017 flop Ghost in the Shell.
A representative for Johansson shrugged off all the backlash, quoted in the online magazine Bustle as saying: "Tell them that they can be directed to Jeffrey Tambor, Jared Leto and Felicity Huffman's reps for comment."
Those are all other non-transgender actors who have earned acclaim and awards for portraying trans characters onscreen (in Transparent, Dallas Buyers Club and TransAmerica, respectively).
Quebec's Jean-Marc Vallée directed Dallas Buyers Club and doesn't agree with the backlash.
"[It] doesn't mean that because I am casting this type of role that I need to go to this type of person. This is the nature of acting. It's pretending," he said from Montreal on Wednesday.
"It's not about aiming for ... an astronaut because your character is an astronaut."
But Todd believes this role would be a particularly big one for a trans person to tackle because it is not about being trans or going through transition — as stage and screen stories about trans people tend to be about.
"It's not just about their body, not just about this bodily transition, not just about being a victim of violence, or rape or murder," he said.
"This could be a well rounded character, so let a trans person do it, because they're going to do a better job."
'I may never work in film again'
There are initiatives underway to put trans actors on the map.
Last fall, the Casting Directors Association of America held two open casting calls for transgender actors in Toronto and Montreal. In Los Angeles, there's now a major new talent agency called Transgender Talent, specifically devoted to representing trans actors.
It also helps that a few transgender actors have had breakthrough roles in recent years, most notably Laverne Cox on Orange is the New Black. There's been lots of pushing for more opportunities and improved roles though.
Todd just had his first lead in the Canadian short We Forgot to Break Up. He's worried about what's next.
"I'm not in the industry. I'm not getting auditions. I'm not getting work, so it really just feels like this is all coming to an end for me," he said. "As soon as this festival circuit is up, I may never work in film again."
Danielle Solzman, a trans movie critic from Chicago, wants more producers and filmmakers to take chances on trans actors.
"There are transgender talent out there that are not getting the opportunity to become famous because we're not essentially being allowed into the room," she said.
"If we don't get the opportunities, we're not going to get the chance to become those bankable names."

The high degree of authenticity experienced at the reenactment is a testament to the dedication of the participants. I heard from one of the soldiers, "What you see, is how it was." What I find interesting is the variety of militia dress, and military uniforms on both sides of the conflict. The crescent moon on the helmets of the 2nd South Carolina Regiment, shown below, is a fascinating example.
You can also see the crescent moon shaped gorget around the neck of the officer in the foreground. During Middle Ages, the gorget was the part of a knight's armor, which protected the throat. By the 18th century, smaller silver and gold gorgets were worn by officers in most European armies. The "Liberty" inscribed crescent moon first appeared in 1775 on the South Carolina battle flag of Colonel William Moultrie as he successfully defended Sullivan's Island against the British fleet, saving Charleston.
The need to sustain a military presence in various parts of the world forced King George to sign treaties with several German principalities. He would "lease" German troops to help quell the American rebellion. The Hessian Musketeer Regiment von Bose was under the command of Cornwallis in the American Southern Campaign.
The 71st Regiment of Foot was raised from several Scottish clans in April of 1776. They served in many northern campaigns before being sent to support Cornwallis in the south. During the Battle of Guilford Courthouse, they supported the British right. They were sometimes referred to as Fraiser's Highlander's.
The image below represents "Light-Horse Harry" Lee, as Lieutenant Colonel of Lee's Legion. His Legion of mixed corps of cavalry and light infantry supported Greene in several battles and skirmishes. His Legion is also known for numerous raids behind enemy lines, reconnaissance and surveillance, and guerilla warefare. Lee is also the father of Confederate General Robert E. Lee.

Okay, so I didn't make my post a day for the month because things got crazy, as usual, but I do plan on writing up some posts that didn't make it, so expect to see a bunch more posts over the next few days.
But Autism Awareness month is over in another few minutes, and I just wanted to end it on a high note for anyone following me.
Today, Patrick needed to get his tire fixed. It blew out, and he's been driving on the donut for long enough. Earlier today, while Simon was in school, we dropped it off. But we weren't able to pick it up until Simon was home from school.
In the past, this has been a problem. We couldn't go in one car and then separate out into two. It was too much for him; he didn't understand why we did it, and he would invariably spend the five minute drive home crying and screaming for whichever of us wasn't in the car.
We tried it tonight.
Told him that we were going to pick up Dad's car. Told him that the tire had been fixed, but that we needed to drive it home. Told him that he could pick who he wanted to drive back home with.
And we went to pick up the car…
Simon did get stuck on the idea of the tire being fixed. He didn't get the time in the statement, and he kept telling us that the tire was being fixed. We'd tell him again that it was already fixed, and that we were just getting it, but he kept saying it was being fixed…it was being fixed.
It wasn't important. We let it go.
Then it came time for the hard part.
We asked him who he wanted to drive home with. He said Mom.
We explained, again, that would mean that Dad would be in the other car. He would follow us, and then we'd all be home together.
He insisted that he wanted to go with Mom.
So he climbed into the back seat of the Jeep, and off we went, with Patrick following.
And it was okay.
He kept telling me that Dad was following, and when we stopped at the sign as we entered the neighborhood, Simon turned around, saw Patrick in the other car, waved, and said "Hi Dad!"
Then we were home.
And everything was fine.
(Until he remembered that the dance was coming up again…but that's another story…)

A dusky view from our dining table on Friday evening, looking toward home...
We ate good food at nice restaurants, saw a play at the Citadel, slept late, did a bit of shopping, bought a picnic lunch, went for a hike around Neon Lake, he did a crossword while I finished reading my latest favourite book (a review is in the works), had a late supper, and watched Lincoln. This morning we grabbed breakfast at Tim's, went to church, and came home to our girls.
Henri Nouwen, one of my favourite spiritual writers says,
Intimacy between people requires closeness as well as distance. It is like dancing. Sometimes we are very close, touching each other or holding each other; sometimes we move away from each other and let the space between us become an area where we can freely move.
To keep the right balance between closeness and distance requires hard work, especially since the needs of the partners may be quite different at a given moment. One might desire closeness while the other wants distance. One might want to be held while the other looks for independence. A perfect balance seldom occurs, but the honest and open search for that balance can give birth to a beautiful dance, worthy to behold.

Group Counseling provides so many benefits beyond one-on-one counseling. You not only get the opportunity to deal with your issues at a reduced cost, but you learn from the other women in the group.

To make it even more affordable, I am offering 2 hour small groups for only $25 per person ($12.50/hr), which is a 50% discount.
The catch is that you need to commit to the entire 48 week program so I can utilize what I learn from you toward my Masters and Doctors degrees in counseling.

give me your honest feedback about it
I have payment plans set up, and
I'm open to additional ways to make this work for each of you.
I will ONLY be able to work with 40 women during this period of time, so there will be an application process to make sure we are a good fit for each other and for the groups.
If you are committed to dealing with your underlying issues and coming out the other side healthier and happier, then this is for you.

Actor, Stars Of Tomorrow, 2009.

Her electrifying performance as a seductive prostitute had at least one casting director transfixed ("I couldn't take my eyes off her") and has seen her career take off. Mosaku left the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (Rada) in 2007 and, after spending most of the following year on the stage, she has just completed her first feature film, playing a loving wife and mother in Benedek Fliegauf's Womb opposite Eva Green and Matt Smith.Mosaku has just finished filming Frank Deasy's Father And Son for ITV alongside Dougray Scott and Sophie Okonedo, as well as the BBC drama One Night In Emergency.

We were really impressed with the SwiftShift management team. Founder & CEO Assaf Shalvi is an Israeli who has been working in the UK for the last six years. He is driven and articulate and a strong negotiator. His CTO is another very hard working Israeli based in London, and the Customer Development Director Derek Frer is an American based in London who has been selling HR Solutions.
The management team were extremely articulate about the sales proposition, the emotional reasons for purchase as well as the rational ROI argument.
The company was at the stage we like: Minimum Viable Product launched with some pilot customers who gave great references on the business and proposition.

British Airways was forced to cancel nearly all of its 1,700 planned flights for today and tomorrow (Sept. 10), after the British Airline Pilots Association (BALPA) announced a planned strike for Sept. 9 and Sept. 10.
The strike, which is the first in the airline's history, resulted over a pay dispute.
"With no detail from BALPA on which pilots would strike, we had no way of predicting how many would come to work or which aircraft they are qualified to fly, so we had no option but to cancel nearly 100 per cent our flights," British Airways wrote in a statement.
1,700 flights cancelled
As a result of a pilot shortage, BALPA's actions have led to more than 1,700 flights being cancelled, directly affecting more than 195,000 customers.
According to British Airways, BALPA has another strike planned for Sept. 27.
"It is completely unacceptable that BALPA is destroying the travel plans of tens of thousands of our customers with this unjustifiable strike action," BA said in a statement. "We will do everything we can to get as many people away on their journeys as possible. However, it is likely that many of our customers will not be able to travel and we will be offering refunds and re-bookings for passengers booked on cancelled flights."
The airline is currently exploring options to supplement its fleet by using aircraft and crew from other airlines (wet-leasing), and continues to work with its partner airlines to schedule larger aircraft to take the maximum number of customers.
British Airways is currently advising those with scheduled flights for today and tomorrow to avoid travel to the airport, and instead urges travellers to rebook their flights online, or by calling directly.
Those travelling on Sept. 27 can expect a follow up email from the airline in the next few weeks should any action be required.

Lili St. Crow
Dru, Graves and Ash are in a stolen car heading for her Gran's house in the Appalachian Mountains. Graves is restless because h's not able to do anything. Dru has him navigate to keep him occupied. She isn't ready to talk about what has been going on.
They arrive at Gran's cottage. Graves has noticed that Dru has bloomed and actually seems happy about being there. Everything finally hits her and she cries while Graves tires to calm her down.
Dru and the boys work to get settled into the cottage. She falls asleep on the love-seat and reams about Christophe. Bruce is begging him to stay with the Order, but he is determined to find Dru. Since the Order could not keep her safe, he leaves.
The dream startles Dru away and she shoots up. Graves, who moved his sleeping bag from the bedroom to the floor next to her, wakes up ready to attack anything that might come through the door. She explains it was just a dream and they both calm down. He get angry as they talk and tells Dru that he is going to prove himself to be useful and that he loves her. She explains that she thought he was disgusted with her and her guilt over everything that has happened to him. He says he is happy that Ash bit him and storms out, again swearing he will show her his feelings. Dru is shocked but has to calm Ash down. He eventually follows Graves, leaving Dru to make breakfast.
Later on, Dru asks Graves what Christophe said to him the night he was taken. Christophe had told him he wasn't good for Dru and Graves said he was better than him. Graves also points out that Dru should not trust him because Sergej had him for so long. Dru gets frustrated with his back and forth feelings and tells him so. He goes outside again and she starts planning their next move.
Dru leaves a note for Graves and gets ready to head to town. Ash makes a big deal and insists on going with her. Dru realizes she can't really stop him and they take off. THey go through the grocery store and the manager follows them the whole time. Ash grabs a candy bar that Dru doesn't realize he unknowingly stole. The manger makes a big deal about it after Dru hands him money to pay for it. He grabs her arm and Ash goes crazy. She stops Ash, knocks out the manager, and disables a passing police officer. She orders Ash into the car and they take off while a storm approaches.
Dru freaks out over the afternoon's events as she drives home in the rain. Ash is scared of the storm and Dru starts to realize it is not natural. They eventually make it back to the cottage to find it on fire and vampires surrounding them. Ash changes into wolf form after jumping out the window while Dru reaches for her malaika.
The vampires draw nearer and Dru can still feel the affects of Anna's blood. She somehow commands Ash to find Graves. She starts fighting and killing vampires. Christophe arrives and helps her. he goes after the female vampire causing the storm. Graves returns with Ash. The wulf joins the fight while Graves tries to get her out of there. Dru refuses to leave Christophe behind and goes to help. The djamphir knocks her down and tells her to stay while the boys go after the fleeing vampires. Dru realizes she has lost her last tie to the human world and cries as she watches Gran's cottage burn.
After checking on Dru, Christophe gets everyone into the car and they take off. Luckily, Ash didn't have trouble turning back into a boy after the fight. Dru apologizes to Christophe, who accepts. He tells her that Graves tired to take all the vampires on himself and the loup-garou becomes furious. Dru tells them to try to get along, but Graves is so mad that he shakes. She tries to calm him down, but he tells her to buckle up so he doesn't have to worry about her. They make it to a main road.
Christophe gets them settled into a hotel to get cleaned up and some rest. Dru tells him how they escaped Sergej, but leaves out the part about Anna's blood. He admits to Dru that he doesn't like Graves and gives her back her diamond earrings, which she puts in. He leaves, promising to be back before sundown. Graves wants to talk, but Dru can't handle it and takes Ash to clean him up.
When they get back on the road, Dru is relieved that Christophe is taking care of everything. She asks that they stop for food that isn't fried or fast. Christophe agrees and makes suggestions. Graves says he'll get pizza with Ash. Dru is pissed off that Graves is being wishy-washy again. He says he needs space and the argument grows. He indicates that Christophe has a secret. Christophe starts to tell her that Graves tired to leave her. She breaks down and the boys start to get along to make her feel better.
Christophe stops at a Four Seasons. Dru gets cleaned up and designer clothes are brought to her. Christophe takes her down the street to an Italian restaurant. She is embarrassed because she can't stop crying. Christophe asks why Graves is in the running for her love, but she doesn't explain it to him.
Dru notices that her drink tastes funny. Suddenly, she can't move. Lavant, one of the Maharaj (believe all vampires and djamphir should be eliminated, but have historically sided with the Order as the lesser of two evils), comes to warn Christophe that his elders have decided to alley themselves with Sergej. He gives Dru the antidote to the poison she ingested before he leaves. Christophe gets Dru out of there and they go back to the hotel.
Dru talks with Graves about when they first met before she falls asleep. When she wakes up from the phone ringing, August is there to take her back to the Schola Prima. Christophe explains that Graves made the call and he approves of the decision with recent developments. Dru tries to fight it, but Graves admits that he is broken.
All hell breaks loose in the hotel room as Christophe goes after Graves. He hits the loup-garou hard enough to knock him out and tries to kill him. August tries to hold back the other djamphir. Dru grabs his shotgun and says she will shot them both if they attempt to hurt Graves. She says she will unbreak him. Eventually, she begs him not to hurt Graves and Christophe calms down. He sends August to get them ready to leave. He asks Dru if she would've done the same for him if the situation was reversed. She says she would and he hugs her.
Shanks, Nathalie, and Dibs come into the room. With Dibs carrying Graves (unconscious and restrained), they take the stairs to get out. Before they can reach the ground floor, something starts making its way up to them. The power goes out and Shanks, Ash, and Dibs with Graves are able to get out the first available door. Nathalie leads the way blindly up the stairs and knocks a door off its hinges. Christophe throws a grenade down the stair well and they all dive for cover. Dru sees a complex hex coming at them. Christophe instructs them to go out the window. Nathalie goes automatically, but Dru hesitates. Christophe grabs her and throws them both out after tossing another grenade. They land on another roof and Dru watches the burning building. They make their way to the ground and start running from the oncoming vampires.
Nathalie leads them across town to the extraction point. She tells them they will be taken to the Schola in Huston temporarily. They make it to a roof and see Hiro in a helicopter, but it is suddenly blown up by a missile. Christophe hits Dru and she slides over the ledge. he tires to hang on, but ends up falling to the ground, unhurt. She decides to get herself to Huston, figuring that is where everyone will go. She takes off by herself.
Dru hides in a dumpster for a while as the creatures after her search. She eventually makes it to a residential area and steels a Jeep using its spare key. She drives to one of her dad's secret caches for supplies, loading up and leaving as quickly as possible. She heads for Huston.
Once Dru is too tired to keep driving, she stops at a Walmart and then a hotel She gets cleaned up and everything prepared before warding the room and going to sleep. She dreams about her dad approaching a door and Christophe trying to stop him.
Dru wakes up as two boys undo the wards and come into her room. She shoots the first on in the knee. The second throws a hex at her. The owl appears to claw at his face, giving Dru a chance to throw the hex back at him. The hex leaves her hand blistered, but she gets her stuff together and gets ready to leave. The one she shot asks she can use the jaadu, but Dru doesn't answer before she jumps out the window and heads for the Jeep. She makes it to Huston, but things are already bad there.
The Schola is in ruins, looking like a bomb had gone off. Dru drives past it and starts heading out of town. A cop pulls her over, but Dru can't risk loosing all of her gear. She takes off starting a chase and the owl leads her.
Ditching the Jeep by some warehouses, Dru hides on the roof from the police as long as she can. She can hear suckers screaming in the distance and starts jumping from roof to roof. She is looking for a new car when a hex-dog finds her. She is able to unravel it in time, but more vampires approach. Dru pulls out her malaika and rushes the oncoming horde.
Her attack doesn't work and Dru is transported in a box, most likely in the cargo hold of a plane. She dreams about Christophe trying to keep her dad from going after Sergej. Dru wakes up in a dark cell. Graves opens the door and Sergej appears. The loup-garou tires to fight off his influence, but isn't successful. Sergej comes up to Dru, but they seem to be toxic to each other. Dru keeps herself in her own mind by using her chains to rub against her left hand that is still blistered from the hex. Sergej leaves her, promising to drain her so he can walk in the sun.
Graves visits Dru while Sergej sleeps and his hold is weaker. He tells her Christophe is there and in bad shape. Graves asks Dru to trust him and she blindly does. He asks why him, and she tells him how she feels. She tells him that he is her rock. He leaves.
Sergej comes to get Dru and has Graves chain her to a wheel chair. They take her to a higher level and into a room filled with vampires. Christophe is chained to the wall, spread out with tiny cuts all over him.
When Christophe sees Dru, he starts to struggle so he can rescue her. She tells him to stop and he does. Sergej explains that he will have to transfuse the blood out of Dru so it doesn't touch air and become more toxic. He plans to make Christophe watch the process slowly kill her over weeks. Sergej's plan is to use the blood of two great houses to walk in the sun.
Graves wheels Dru over to the table and Sergej orders Dibs to put the needle in her. He refuses, not wanting to hurt her. Dru realizes that Sergej can just get someone else to do it and convinces Dibs that she wants him to. She tells him help is on the way to calm him down, but she knows she is lying and won't live through this.
Dru talks Dibs through draining her blood until it is too painful and she passes out. She wakes up in a bedroom, but is too weak to move and all her djamphir abilities are gone. She tries to keep Dibs occupied. Graves comes to the door with green eyes, indicating he is himself, but Dibs attacks him before Dru can stop him. The wulfen end up in the hall fighting.
Graves has to knock Dibs out to get to Dru. He brings Dibs and Dru's belongings into the room. He wants to give her his blood so they can both run. He plans to go far enough away to get out from Sergej's control and her to go back to the Order. Dru refuses, but Graves makes himself bleed.
Dru sinks her fangs into Graves' neck. As she drinks, she sees pieces of his life, including the pieces with her. She takes four swallows and wonders why djamphirs only ever take three. She pulls away. Her strength and abilities are back and she can feel Sergej waking up.
Feeling stronger than ever, Dru has to keep herself from drinking Graves completely dry. She tells him to get Dibs out of there while she goes after Christophe. Graves tells her to leave him, but she refuses. She kisses Graves and tells him that she loves him before taking off.
Dru races for Christophe and immediately starts killing vampires. She cuts Christophe's chains and he joins her in the fight. They kill all the vampires that attack and send two off running for their lives. Christophe tries to convince her to leave. She refuses and tells him to go because she doesn't want to loose him too. Sergej appears.
Sergej goes after Christophe. Dru sends the owl to crack his head. Sergej comes back for her after crushing his son. He chokes her, now immune to her because he ingested her blood. Christophe stabs him from behind. Dru goes to kill him, but Christophe knocks her aside and sinks his teeth into his father's neck. Dru yanks his head back to stop him.
It takes a few tires and pleading to get Christophe to stop. Dru takes her malaika and cuts off Sergej's head. Christophe holds and thanks her while she shakes. They hear gun fire in the distance.
Christophe wants Dru to tell him what to do to make her choose him. He knows Graves bled for her and he points out that he did as well. She points out that they need to leave and he drops the subject reluctantly. They start to make their way out, prepared for anything, when the Order busts their way in to retrieve them.
Dru watches her friends take care of her while they treat her for shock from blood loss. Christophe offers all of his blood to save her. Bruce and Hiro disagree on whether or not he should. Dru hears her mom telling her to go back. Graves whispers, begging her not to go. She goes back and Christophe slumps to the floor.
When Dru finally wakes up, she is greeted by Nathalie. She apologizes to her for how she acted when she left the Schola and asks about everyone else. When Nathalie tells her that Graves is leaving, Dru runs to the exit just in time to catch him. He explains that he has always been broken and needs help to become stronger. He promises to come back and be worth her.
The Council (down to Bruce, Hiro, and August) beg Dru to meet with the Maharaj. They think she is related because of what she can do with hexes. Since they have laws about hurting females of their kind, they want to make it up to her. The Council wants her to broker an alliance against the vampires. When Dru is reluctant, Hiro points out that there will always be more vampires. Dru agrees to help.
Dru accepts the formal apology of the Maharaj and the Order starts to work out an alliance with them. Dru goes to see Christophe. She gathers her nerve and tells him she's not ready to be with anyone yet. he says he can wait for her to make up her mind one way or the other.
Dru talks with Nathalie about getting back into a normal routine. Dru decides to put it off for a day and act like a normal girl with Nathalie while she can.

stats: Kentucky Straight Bourbon, 125.3 proof, no age statement, $60
Buffalo Trace is the largest, most progressive bourbon distiller in the U.S. The company sells whiskey under countless brands, many of which have been acquired through the company's history. Some of the brands are a joint venture, where Buffalo Trace has a partial ownership, and some of the brands may be distilled under contract. Since 2000, the company has put out an annual release of a series of whiskeys called the Antique Collection. William Larue Weller is the barrel proof, wheated bourbon of the lineup (which has changed a bit over the years), along with the Sazerac 18 yr Rye and Thomas H. Handy Rye reviewed below, and the Eagle Rare 17 yr and George T. Stagg bourbons.
In the 1970's, the bourbon industry essentially collapsed, and while it has made a tremendous comeback in recent years, worldwide demand is still somewhat weak relative to supply. Which is good, because it means bourbon is a tremendous value (unlike Scotch, which has seen prices skyrocket over the last five years). But there has also been an effort in the bourbon industry to keep prices from rising too much, which will certainly help maintain a steady future growth of the brand. The downside is that some products are released on an allotment, or only to certain core markets. The Antique Collection is a prime example of this situation, being released in limited quantities mid October every year, in most locations it is sold out in a matter of weeks. These are special whiskeys, aged many years in the finest oak barrels - they can't really just crank up production. Sure, they could make these available year round (and make a lot more money), if they jacked the price up to $250 a bottle, but that is not the business model they have chosen. And my wallet thanks them. So, my point is, if you happen to come across one of these bottles, snap it up while you can!
Now, on to the tasting. The color is a fairly dark amber. The nose is big and concentrated, with notes of leather, cocoa and fossil fuels, it is quite masculine. Even though "wheated" bourbons are typically softer and sweeter than their more common "ryed" counterparts, at this high proof, the flavors are densely packed and intense. Medium in body and seemingly mild up front, the intensity builds quickly and can sneak up on you. Be weary, this is a slow sipper. Spice notes (the back of the bottle says vanilla, teaberry and cinnamon, I concur) and a slight alcohol burn push the sweet grain core into the background. It has an exceptionally long finish, which transforms as it advances along and eventually fades out. Big and powerful, but still graceful and balanced, one of my favorite bourbons.

The Right Choice
Thursday, September 21, 2017
CVTC Culinary Management instructor Kevin Brown moderates a panel discussion on the needs of the local food industry and how the program can help. Panelists from left are Lynette Livingston, CVTC dean of business and academic services; Dave Challe, food and nutrition services director for Mayo Clinic Health Systems; and Nathan Berg, chef at The Lak
Kerigan Pawlak wanted to enter the culinary field when she graduated from Eau Claire Memorial High School in 2016. Unfortunately, she had to go first to the Twin Cities, then to eastern Wisconsin to begin her education. Now she's looking forward to transferring to Chippewa Valley Technical College when its Culinary Management program starts next August.
"I've been at Fox Valley Technical College," she said. "I'm thinking of going into baking and I don't like driving three hours from home for school."
On Tuesday, Sept. 19, Pawlak attended a Restaurant Week panel discussion involving CVTC Culinary Management instructors Jonathan Fike and Kevin Brown and seven local leaders in the food industry to learn more about how CVTC's program can prepare her for a career in culinary. Brown assured her there is room in the program for someone with her aspirations.
"Our job is to understand each of our students and where they want to go, and help them get there," Brown said. "Our goal is not to make everyone a fine dining chef."
The panel focused on education, both for students enrolling in the program and for the general public to better understand the industry as consumers.
Nathan Berg, chef at The Lakely, described how he has taken members of his staff directly to the farms that are the sources of the selections on the restaurant's frequently-changing menu. "It's nice to see the families that you are helping," he said.
Berg, along with Amy Ann Huo, chef at The Informalist, spoke of how they focus on local food and want the public to better understand the farm-to-table relationships. "I am willing to spend the resources to learn and to teach my staff as well," Huo said. "I try to instill in them a love of local food."
"That's the kind of excitement we want to get across to our students," Brown added.
Huo noted that one of the challenges in the local restaurant industry is to educate people on why food costs what it does. "The farmers work really hard, and we work really hard, and we pay our cooks what they're worth," she said.
The panel touched on many issues within the industry. "We try to educate the world on better nutrition," said Cindy Brown of Chippewa Valley Bean, a kidney bean producer that exports about 70 percent of its products all over the globe.
"Part of our program will be nutrition-focused, and I'm already thinking of ways we can get our students involved in Cindy's company," Brown said.
K.T. Gallagher, environmental health supervisor with the Eau Claire Health Department, spoke of efforts to have local food businesses see them less as inspectors looking to write citations and more of a resource to work with for the safety of the public.
"The relationship you have with the health department is crucial," Fike said.
Listening to the needs of the area food industry is part of the job for Brown and Fike, who are already working full time in preparation for teaching the first students in the program next fall. Fike noted that from kitchen design to curriculum planning, there's plenty to do.
"The mission of CVTC is to support the employments needs of the region. We looked at our program offerings and found we had a gap in the culinary and hospitality area," said Lynette Livingston, executive dean of business and academic initiatives. "We're very excited about this program and how it can contribute to the community. We're hoping this will be one of our flagship programs at CVTC."

Three years ago less a week, after another tough campaign, G.D. Maxwell wrote a feature story for Pique that attempted to put the outcome of the 2002 Whistler municipal election in context. Among the quotes from the duly elected and nearly elected was Maxs assessment that: "The communitys got a good head of steam built up behind it. This election seemed to energize people once again to the democratic process. Its unlikely the new administration will ignore public input or wait so long to seek it as at least the perception has become."
I bring this up not to show the imperfections of Maxs crystal ball, but as an example of how far we have not come in the last three years. Leadership, public engagement, transparency not to mention the old standbys, affordability and affordable housing were issues three years ago and they should be issues on voters minds when they go to the polls this Saturday.
Circumstances have changed in the last three years the Olympics are now a reality; the World Economic Forum is no longer a reality; Whistler has become a little bigger, with more hotels to fill; the primary measure of the local economy, hotel room nights, now shows a four-year decline. But to many observers the past three years are remarkable for how few tangible accomplishments this council can claim. Affordable housing is the most obvious. No new housing was opened in the last three years despite the fact that was one of the priorities this council identified shortly after they were elected.
There were some unexpected setbacks that delayed housing, and the good news is that there is enough housing on the horizon to make a significant dent in the housing wait list. But the measure of a council is taken every three years, not three and a half. And so we are at the point where we take inventory of the issues before us, assess the people who have volunteered to serve the community, and choose seven to represent Whistler for the next three years.
Everyone who cares enough to vote has their view of what issues are important and what qualities our elected leaders need to address the issues and to run our town. But it seems to me there is sentiment among a lot of voters that Whistlers problems stem from Victoria. We havent received the financial tools we were apparently promised. The boundary expansion hasnt been approved and thats allowing development to take place to the north and south that we have no control over. The class 1/6 taxation issue continues unresolved and we still havent signed off on the 300-acre land bank. Were not doing anything wrong in fact were winning international awards for doing things right. Its those damn people in Victoria who are screwing us.
And if its not Victorias fault then its the local economy which has been subject to so many unpredictable external factors: 9/11, SARS, a U.S. dollar that is shrinking against the Canuck buck, Avian Flu what could we do about any of those things?
But can we really lay all our problems at the feet of Gordon Campbell, Osama bin Laden, God, George Bush and poultry farmers?
My sense is that despite the problems Whistler is facing and the lack of tangible accomplishments in the last three years, a lot of voters feel its important this election to preserve the status quo. Not the status quo in terms of people on council only three members of the current council could be part of the next council but in general philosophy. A feeling that we have to preserve what we have fought for and achieved. The big plan is in place, we just have to execute it. Trust us.
But theres a lot happening in the world outside of Whistlers municipal boundaries that will affect us, and little attention has been paid to it. From Fernie to China; from pine beetles to private sector partnerships, the world around us is changing. Despite the ground-breaking work Whistler has done in some fields, I fear that our community may not be as agile and open to change as it needs to be.
Its not solely the responsibility of our elected officials and municipal staff to deal with the problems and issues before Whistler now, and to try and anticipate whats coming down the road the public has a role to play too. But issues such as the arena fiasco show that municipal hall still needs to work on public engagement.
And perhaps Whistler needs to look at itself a little more critically and question what it has always taken for granted. There has been lots of talk about financial tools and the need for more revenue. Theres been little talk about cutting back expenses. In fact, we continue to demand more services and facilities from our local government.
Theres also a sense among some voters that, with the Olympics on the horizon, someone will show up with more money to help us address whatever problems we determine we have. That may or may not be true, but its a dangerous way to operate.
If theres a message from the last three years its that we havent come as far as we should have in that time. And why is that? For my money, its because collectively weve been too complacent; the circle of engagement has become too small; weve been too certain that others are responsible for our problems.
On Saturday my vote will be for people who will challenge the status quo. People who wont tell you, "Trust us".

Battlefield 5 release dates, Deluxe Edition and pre-order bonuses
Breaking down the release dates, pre-order options, and Special Edition differences for Battlefield 5.
Battlefield 5 is soon to release, giving players a fresh opportunity to get an inside glimpse at World War 2. The team at DICE is doing things a little differently this time around, opting for unique solo campaigns and even throwing in the series' first battle royale-inspired gameplay mode. Dropping into the action involves a few key decisions regarding specific release dates, pre-orders, and Special Editions, and we've outlined all the need-to-know facts below.
Battlefield 5 release dates
Release dates and access times for Battlefield 5 vary across platforms. They also vary depending on which version of the game players purchase. The release dates are all contained within the same two-week period, but EA Acess subscribers on Xbox One as well as Original Access Premier subscribers will be among the first to jump into the action.
- EA Access and Origin Access Premier players (Xbox One and PC, respectively) are slated for Battlefield 5 access on November 9, though many players were granted access in the early morning hours of November 8.
- Users who pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition of the game (see below) regardless of chosen platform will be able to play starting on November 15.
- Everyone else will gain access to the game on November 20.
Battlefield 5 Standard and Deluxe Edition pre-order bonuses
There are only two separate retail versions of Battlefield 5: the Standard Edition and the Deluxe Edition. The Standard Edition of the game still contains a few bonuses, though they're only available for those who pre-order. The Deluxe Edition, on the other hand, includes a lot of added goodies, including pre-order bonuses assuming players make their purchase soon. Here are the bonuses as listed on the official Battlefield website:
Standard Edition pre-order bonuses include:
- Access to the Paratrooper Outfit
- Instact access to five Battlefield 1 weapons
- Special Assignments: Earn rewards and get an edge over the competition when you complete Special Assignments.
Deluxe Edition pre-order bonuses include:
- All Standard Edition pre-order bonuses
- Five sets of Paratrooper Outfits
- 20 Weekly items with Airlift, each containing one customization item.
- Special Assignments: Get rolling with Assignments inspired by the British Special Air Service's true-to-life raids on German air bases, and ones based on the defense of airfields on the North African coastline by the German Fallschirmjäger troops, as well as Starter Assignments providing more ways to test your skills on the battlefield and earn rewards.
Whether or not players opt for the Deluxe Edition of the game, there's not much of a wait before Battlefield 5 makes its big debut. Keep on top of the latest in EA and DICE's hit FPS series by heading over to Shacknews' Battlefield 5 home page.

The Thaana script was developed during the 18th century by an unknown inventor. It first appeared in government documents in 1703 and replaced an older alphabet known as Dives akuru.
Some of the Taana letters were derived from Dives akuru, while others were modelled on Arabic numerals. Vowel indication is modelled on the Arabic system of diacritics.
Maldivian (Dhivehi / ދިވެހި), an Indo-Aryan language spoken by about 350,000 people in the Maldives and and by about 10,000 in the island of Minicoy in the Union territory of Lakshadweep in India.
Major dialects of Maldivian are Malé, Huvadhu, Mulaku, Addu, Haddhunmathee and Maliku, with the Malé dialect of the Maldivian capital being considered the standard. In Mincoy the Maliku dialect is spoken and is known as Mahl.
Maldivian is closely related to, though not mutually intelligible with, Sinhalese. It has been influenced by and aborbed words from a number of languages, including Arabic, French, Persian, Portuguese, Urdu and English.

Stoke vs Arsenal: Preview, Injury News & Predicted Team
Arsenal travel to the Britannia Stadium this weekend with unhappy memories of last seasons encounter. Our last visit here did see us take 3 points but we lost much more than we gained. I am of course alluding to the horrific leg break to Aaron Ramsey.
Injury News :
Here is Arsene Wengers update on injuries:
"Diaby, Nasri and Fabregas will be out," said Wenger. "Nasri and Fabregas have a little chance for Aston Villa but not for Stoke.
"Johan Djourou had a test yesterday that looked quite positive. We have a doubt about Clichy's hamstring. He had a test that was not completely satisfactory, both have a chance to be fit."
"Thomas Vermaelen is available and could be in the squad. Aaron Ramsey is likely to get another chance, I can even say that he will play."
Probable Line up :
Subs : Lehmann, Eboue, Gibbs, DJ*, TR7, Denilson, Nikko, Chamakh
Final thoughts :
Stoke play a very physical game, and we all know this. Passing the ball quickly and ensuring we get our rhythm will be crucial for us here. They are a bullish team and their obvious tactic will be to catch us out at corners and set pieces. Then of course we have their long throw tactic, which will prove to be a big test for our defense. If we can deal with that, then I feel half the game is ours. An early goal will be crucial to keep the crowd tamed, and if we 'concede' then a high pressure game should be adopted by us because we know they shall become 'ultra defensive,' those Damn turtles!

ramsey shouldnt play in this game. we all know how stoke are going to play so its best for his safety that he is on the bench for this one.
play denilson instead in that role, ramsey doesnt deserve to be exposed to those thugs for a second time
@Cesc. Agree entirely about keeping Ramsey away from thugs like Shawcross & Co.
At the same time, Stoke will not want to risk injuries on their side with the FAC Final only a weeek away.
Personally you want to get your facts straight. Ramsey's injury although horrific was an unfortunate accident and thats all it was. Arsenal can be conceived as dirty as well and you just have to look at wilshere for proof. I think arsenal will struggle without their divers and pre-medonna's not in the team i.e fabregas and nasri. Wengers will use his media tactic. You gooners go on about shawcross being a thug but it wasn't that long ago that wenger was interested in buying him. I think you should let it go and stop blaming shawcross for arsenal's inadequacies to win the league or any cups. It just goes to show how much you know about stoke that we can't score from open play. Did you not see the five goals scored against bolton. Arsenal fans and wenger need to stop whining about how hard done to they are and start playing then they might win something!!!!
When a pilot has an accident the best known remedy for recovering his confidence is to get up there again as soon as possible. So it is with Ramsey.
If there is any lingering doubt in his mind the best way to clear it is to face his adversary. Play him.
face his ad
please Arsene play clichy and gibbs on the same wing tomorrow coz Pennant will be running rings all day long. not sure if it's a good game for vermalean to come back though
Go gunners goal
Before shooting your mouth off, wait until after the match on Sunday. Then ponder the thuggery that Stoke have produced. And then apologise for getting it all wrong….again

... comes when I read this kind of emails:
Sorry, but mail address is just for forum problems - http://irfanview-forum.de/showthread...rfanView-ForumGuys, I am just trying to find a programme that'll read a dwg file. Why is this such a proiblem?
Honestly I don't know what the problem is.This is bullshit. I have tried regiistering . emailing etc ad bloody
nauseum. If you want money. why cant you just say so. instead of the
endless run around with pw ., stupid code words etc.
To make it clear:Finally I got the thing to download, and now it needs additional
software , which , unsurprisingly enough requires money. If there is
an authority I can report you misleading bastards to. I hope I can
find it. Shame on You
We have very great and motivated moderators in this forum, who spend a lot of time in replying to other people's support iussues. And yes, they do it to help other people.
And that's the reason why I can't understand that other people (like the one who wrote this mail to me) don't know or appreciate that.
So I just want to give thanks to the moderators here (who don't earn any money for that - we all do it just to help other people!) and of course to all forum users, who visit the forum regulary + give very useful hints!

Max Graef & Muff Deep (who starred together on an ace recent twelve for Tartelet we covered on here as well) start proceedings on the A with Mumbojambo, cleverly fusing dusty beatdown house with serious hiphop stylings. The result is a wonderfully chuggy samplefest that grooves like the proverbial. Andy Hart gets flown in from Melbourne for some more teamwork with Graef on Pulleman, a serious chunk of driving uptempo deephouse with more hiphop magic dust sprinkled on top. The A3 is a short but sweet J Dilla-type slice of instrumental hiphop, neat little bonus on an already action-packed A side.
Flip over for Gene Siewing's 'Raise the Love', a low slung groover with a murderous bassline, bitchin' drums and clever use of samples. Keep turning to this cut when I throw the record on, irresistible. Finally, the Graef/Labuzinski combo makes a welcome return to BAH with Lowengummi. It's a wonky, stuttery and techy ride but the warm bass and drums keep things nicely in check. Reckon this should do serious damage in a dark basement in the wee hours.
Another amazing record then, vinyl only and limited as ever, which you should pick up directly at the source

I've converted many a naysayer before, so it comes as no surprise that everyone doesn't share the same affinity for the rice cake as I do. The poor things do get a lot of crap. And if you are talking Quaker, then, yes it is even warranted crap. But next time skip over the styrofoam stuff and pick up a natural foods brand, like Lundburg. Top with some pb, raisins, banana, and cinnamon, and you wont be sorry. Pick up the Sunday Times..... and now thats a morning.

Spring is sprung
A fleeting visit to Cambridge yesterday to run a workshop on 'Writing Science' for Cambridge Wordfest (Spring 2013 edition). Having some experience of offering guidance to scientists who want to improve how they write for general interest audiences, I was a bit nervous about a workshop that was open to the public – anyone, if they were willing to pay for the privilege, could come along. But in the end, most of those who came were from some sort of scientific background – working in research, scientific publishing or, alarmingly, science communication.
Of course, part of the draw was the attendance of Alok Jha, science correspondent for the Guardian. In fact, I'm sure two or three people were there solely to try and pitch ideas to him. But our schedule was already full to the brim with exercises and talks, including one from Penny Sarchet, one of the first winners of the Wellcome Trust Science Writing Prize, which we were there to promote.
Indeed, we were knocked delightfully off-schedule by some great questions and discussion that followed the first exercise. It was so good that people came ready to speak up and question our assumptions as well as their own. I guess it is something of a truism to say that it is the participants who make a workshop successful or not, more than the people running it, but perhaps we can allow for there to be a great deal of input from both sides.

Beijing recently released the news that the Chinese government is not going to allow any type of gambling or horse-racing activities in the small province of Hainan (situated in the south of the country and home to almost 10 million Chinese citizens).
The news was broken by a local paper under the control of the provincial government, relaying comments made by the ranking Communist party official in Hainan province.
Policy About-turn
This story comes amid speculation that the Chinese government was considering opening up Hainan to the gambling market.
Last week, they granted the region 'free trade zone status', which is part of an overall policy designed to loosen regulations and ease harsh limits on foreign capital investment across a number of sectors.
This seemed to be moving towards a conclusion offered by reports from Bloomberg back in February, that China would open up the market.
However, investors' potential excitement will be dampened after today's announcements appear to completely shut down any potential for a gambling market to emerge in Hainan any time in the near future.
Cultural Barriers
Liu Cigui, Hainan's party official, said: "Some online comments about opening casinos, allowing gambling and horse-racing, or copy[ing] from capitalism and adopt[ing] overall private ownership, are divorced from China's reality and [they are] resolutely not allowed."
Currently, the only region in China where gambling is permitted is the formally Portuguese controlled territory of Macau.
In recent months, however, Macau's casinos haven't been performing according to many analysts' expectations, leading to widespread concern that the Chinese gambling market may not be of the magnitude many expected.
The potential gambling market in China has been the subject of much speculation.
Senior party officials and policy experts often cite the risk of increased social problems, with concerns echoing those of their neighbouring country of Japan.
The Japanese government finally legalised casino gambling in July of this year, however. Insiders speculate that the Chinese government may be waiting to see the impact introducing casinos has there before making the next move on domestic soil.
Investors and gambling companies will be waiting with trepidation for the next series of announcements as the situation evolves in the coming months.
