You can hop in your car and head southwest out of Washington DC and nestled in the woods and farm land between the Lee Highway and Route 66 you'll pass through a valley that became one of the most important flashpoints in American history.
Just past Chantilly lies the Manassas National Battlefield Park, set up to protect the location of two of the early battles of the Civil War between the Union and the Confederate soldiers.
Gene Paleno's new book The Porter Conspiracy is the story of Major General Fitz John Porter, whose actions and leadership during the critical Second Battle of Bull Run, which was lost by the Union, came under military and political scrutiny and triggered a highly-contested court martial and decades of divisive partisan conflict.
Porter was a commander with the Union Army of Virginia. He served under Major General John Pope who had a bad reputation and a history of poor leadership and handling of the army. On August 27, 1860, the Confederate Army under Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson seized Pope's supply depot at Manassas Junction. Pope became panicked and sent a flurry of repetitive unorganized and poorly written orders to Porter. These orders, which were described later as a "masterpiece of contradiction and obfuscation that would become the focal point of decades of wrangling," were patently unclear about what Porter and his forces were supposed to do.
When Porter met with his field commanders and made a series of military decisions based on limited knowledge of the locations of the Confederate Army, there was significant confusion and on August 30, the Union suffered a major loss. Although the decisions he and his commander made blunted the Confederate forces attack, the Union Army lost the battle.
After the battle, General Pope was relieved of command and his allies in Washington looked for a scapegoat and sought to hold Porter responsible, and on November 25, Porter was arrested and relieved of command.

A very public and openly contested court martial was held and Porter was found guilty. But his supporters fought back. Porter was backed by the Democrats, while General Pope's supporters were Republicans.
The Porter Conspiracy delves into the history and documentation of the battles and the court martial. It goes through and highlights the essential portions of the voluminous evidence and provides clear indication of the many years of treachery and betrayal by the Republicans.
WindingRiver.com Editors Note
The Porter Conspiracy, A Story of the Civil War is indeed just that -- a story of the war.
In the 450 pages -- including a detailed index and a lengthy bibliography, Paleno takes the time to present
the controversy surrounding General Fitz John Porter's trial and conviction in
the context of the battlefield and society in general.
Advanced students of the Civil War will enjoy the detail of the Porter Conspiracy
while those with less background on the War are quickly brought up to speed with Paleno's guidance.
Not an academic treatise, but a darn good read!
It took twenty years, but ultimately, the Schofield Board of Inquiry found that Commanding General John Pope, was the person responsible for losing that battle and that Pope had blamed Fitz John Porter.
The truth was that Porter, by his actions alone, saved the Army of Virginia from destruction. Because of Porter, the Union army was able to fight again weeks later at Antietam and drive Lee back to Virginia.

But partisan political opposition prevented Porter from being exonerated. And his trials and tribulations went on for decades.
The Republican administrations after the Civil War led first by President Hayes and then by President Garfield, did not have the political support to overcome their party's opposition to a pardon.
Porter was still seen by the Radical Republicans as a traitor and his success in obtaining national figures to speak on his behalf was seen as connected to a dangerous resurgence of the Democrats in national politics.
After nearly twenty years, on May 6, 1882, President Chester A. Arthur, who succeeded Garfield after his assassination, commuted Porter's sentence to restore his rights of citizenship and to hold public office.
But another year of partisan wrangling erupted in both houses of Congress. Despite considerable vocal opposition and fierce partisan rancor and arguments after a veto by President Arthur was overridden, a bill passed the Congress to restore Porter to his regular army rank of Colonel, dated to May 1863, but with no compensation for back pay missed on August 5, 1886.
Two days later, vindicated, Porter retired from the army. However, it was still two more years before he would receive an official pardon in 1884, when Grover Cleveland took office, the first Democrat elected since 1857.
The Porter Conspiracy is one the pivotal stories of the American Civil War describing the obsessive, partisan animosity that gripped much of the country during the trial. The book seeks to shed light on a period in American history that has almost been entirely forgotten and points to a turning point that changed the entire course of history.

About the Author
Gene Paleno served his country in WWII and retired as an officer to the inactive reserve a few years later. After his military stint ended, he received a Bachelor's degree at the University of Michigan and worked in marketing and management in the aerospace and materials industries in New York and Los Angeles. In the 1960's he packed his daughter off to college in Eureka and moved with his wife to a 27-acre farm in Bachelor Valley, in Lake County, near Ukiah, California. He's been there ever since.
He started writing in 1975 and is still a contributing columnist for the Lake County Record. In 2014 he published a Lake County History which explores the history the Lake County California. His other books include fifteen full-length novels and several collections of stories, including adult science fiction and fantasy.
Questions and Answers from Gene Paleno:
What motivated you to write this story?
Porter gave everything to fight for his country. Yet, he was court martialed and forced to suffer the shame of the false charges for twenty years until, with the support of Grant and others, he was found innocent of all charges and credited with saving the Union Army from annihilation.
A small note in a dusty old book about the Civil War mentioned the injustice Porter had experienced. I am for the underdog. Besides, he was an American hero of the best sort and the Second Battle of Bull Run was an important part of the Civil War. As a writer, I decided I must tell his story.
What do you hope to see happen in America?
Mankind is evolving toward something better. Our feet are still mired in the clay and we change, oh so slowly. I am compelled to put my two cents worth to fight ignorance (the greatest evil) and prejudice of all kinds when I can. With time, our future generations will go to the stars. I am convinced we will find our way.
How did you do your research?
I did my background research the hard way. I wrote letters. I found copies of letters written by men that had lived and died in that war. I read books. I haunted the internet. I spoke to kin in Lake County, whose ancestors had fought in the Civil War. Like a Chinese puzzle, I put the book together in the way best to tell the story.
I like to read my own books. Stonewall Jackson's masterful ambush behind the abandoned railroad was one of the best parts. Another were the politics, chicanery, and the evil by men in high places. Still another were the events that happened a hundred years before 1861, that led to slavery and the Civil War. The testament of the soldiers, who fought and died and told us how it was, is white-hot and immediate in the telling.

Mom, 44, writes the book on texting
California author Shawn Marie Edgington thinks you'll LOL (laugh out loud) when you read her new book, especially if you've never learned much about text messaging B4 (before). Chock full of 411 (information) for novice texters, "Read Between the Lines: A Humorous Guide to Texting With Simplicity and Style," is a fun read A3 (anyplace, anytime, anywhere). Even while you're at * (Starbucks).
Edgington, 44, began texting three years ago as a way to quickly communicate with her teenage son and daughter. The CEO of an insurance brokerage company, she discovered that text messages were also a good way to communicate with employees, clients and friends.
This year, she released her book to inspire other reluctant texters, and Academy Awards organizers selected it to be one of the 25 items included in the celebrity Oscar "swag bags" along with a texting dictionary app Edgington developed for the iPhone.
Q: What made you decide to write this book?
A: I had an "aha" moment when my 65-year-old mother cornered me 2 1/2 years ago and told me something was wrong with my kids. She said they hadn't responded to any of her e-mails. I told her kids don't e-mail anymore and suggested she learn how to text. We texted my daughter, and she texted back within 10 seconds. My mom was amazed because she hadn't gotten an e-mail response in six months. Now they connect all the time.
Q: You've also had experiences where text messaging came in handy in a panic situation, right?
A: Yes. My family was skiing in Tahoe, and we couldn't find my son. His phone kept going straight to voice mail. The lifts were closing, and we were getting really worried about him, wondering if he was injured somewhere. I finally sent him a text, and he responded right away. Turns out his cell phone didn't have enough power to take a call, but it takes less power to send a text.
Q: What's the hardest texting etiquette rule to follow?
A: Don't text while driving. I just took Oprah's pledge about that and signed online. Texting and driving causes so many deaths and injuries, and I'd never forgive myself if something happened.
Q: How did you begin to compile the text lingo dictionary for the book? How many do you personally use?
A: I researched and researched and researched. I used most of the terms I found, but I took out most of the really inappropriate ones. There were lots of inappropriate ones. I'd say I use 50 of the terms at most. Most often, it's: NP (no problem), OMW (on my way), OMG (oh my God), IDK (I don't know), SG (sounds good), LMK (let me know).
Q: How did your book get selected for the Oscar swag bags?
A: A friend recommended the book, and it had to be reviewed by a committee. I had to be willing to give 250 copies away and make a donation to the charity the event is supporting. To prepare the books for the bags, I have been hand-gluing Swarovski crystals to the covers. I sign the books, wrap them in organza, put a bow tie around them and glue crystals to the bow tie.
"Read Between the Lines" (Brown Books, 166 pages, $16.95). The iPhone app, OMG Texting Dictionary, can be downloaded from the iPhone App Store for 99 cents.

Amid a sexual harassment scandal and rumours of its potential pending cancellation, one show on Fox News has drawn attention for its sharp criticism of President Donald Trump's handling of violence at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Fox News is currently considering shaking up its primetime lineup for the third time this year following the suspension of "Fox News Specialists" co-host Eric Bolling, who is on mandatory leave pending an investigation into allegations that he send lewd unsolicited text messages to several employees.
With Bolling at the helm of "Specialists," many media observers speculated that Fox was adding another pro-Trump platform to the network. The Washington Post said the move was "a win for the White House" considering Bolling's strong support for Trump. (Bolling was briefly considered for a position in the president's cabinet, and was one of his most unwavering supporters during the 2016 campaign.)
Seated at the center of the frame every day, Bolling often got the last word in debates, making Trump's case, and helped book pro-Trump guests.
But in Bolling's absence this week, the remaining co-hosts of "Fox News Specialists" have gone viral and made headlines for their criticism of Trump's response to the Charlottesville protests.
On Monday, host Eboni Williams blasted Trump for hesitating to denounce white supremacists explicitly, saying he was "all too happy" to benefit from and "tacitly encourage" individuals who hold white supremacists views.
"Mr. President, your initial response was cowardly and dangerous, and they warranted a second statement," Williams said.
She added: "I was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. I can no longer do that, Mr. President. No more benefit, all doubt. In a moment where you could've been crystal clear where you stand on the issue of inclusion, standing up against white supremacy and terrorism, you very clearly chose to be ambiguous and to equivocate. All sides, Mr. President? Please."
Williams monologue quickly went viral, getting space on the homepage of right-wing aggregator The Drudge Report.
Host Kat Timpf, a libertarian and stand-up comic, has regularly pushed back against some pro-Trump guests over the president's factual inaccuracies, as well as some of his jingoistic calls for foreign intervention.
But following Trump's press conference, Timpf offered one of her bluntest condemnations, noting that it was ironic for Trump to urge restraint in this instance, but rush to judgment himself when there were instances that appeared to be acts of Islamic terrorism.
"It's crazy for me to have to comment because I'm still in the phase where I'm wondering if it was actually real life what I just watched," Timpf said. "It was one of the biggest messes I've ever seen. I can't believe it happened."
She added: "It shouldn't be some kind of bold statement to say, 'Yes, a gathering full of white supremacist Nazis doesn't have good people in it. Those are all bad people, period.' And fact that that's controversial, I don't know if i should just laugh. I have too much eye makeup on to start crying right now. It's disgusting."
Timpf and Williams' panel on Tuesday was virtually alone on Fox News in panning Trump's presser.
By primetime, many of the president's backers like Jesse Watters, Sean Hannity, and Tucker Carlson blamed journalist and reporters who questioned whether the president was drawing equivalency between white supremacists and counter-protesters.
"It was an epic beatdown of the liberal mainstream establishment media," Hannity said in the first minute of his show.
Since it first aired earlier this year, Timpf and Williams both insisted that "Specialists" would not be a rubber-stamp for Trump's agenda, and often debated Bolling over Trump's decisions on immigration and foreign policy.
"This is not a show to be an advocacy for the administration, but this is not a show to bash our president," Williams said in an interview with Business Insider in April. "This is a show to go layer by layer, issue by issue and have an actual dialogue."
It's unclear whether "Specialists" in its current form will continue to capture audience's attention for its status as a show willing to call out the president.
CNN's Brian Stelter reported that conservative pundit Laura Ingraham was in serious discussions t0 join Fox News' primetime lineup, a move that would likely directly impact "Specialists."
Two sources familiar with the situation told Business Insider the final lineup was up in the air, but many suspected "The Five" would move back to its old 5 p.m. slot, bumping "Fox News Specialists" and making way for Ingraham to occupy the 9 p.m. slot, where "The Five" moved earlier this year. Ingraham's show could also air at 10 p.m., moving host Sean Hannity into the 9 p.m. slot.

A sign of peace from the past: British and French ambassadors visit historical town where a peace deal was reached in 1898 [1]
United in South Sudan: UK and French ambassadors to South Sudan pose for a photo at the historical site of the Fashioda Incident
Late in the 19th century, two imperial powers' ambitions intersected, literally, in the town of Fashoda, present-day Kodok, South Sudan.
In 1898, after a months-long hostile standoff over territorial influence in Africa, France and Britain were brought to the brink of an imperial war, and eventually, a peace agreement that lasts to this day, during what is referred to as the Fashoda Incident.
And what better way to model this memorable event, than to have the two countries' representatives in South Sudan return to that very historical location, bearing a copy of that agreement that has created lifelong allies between them.
Britain's ambassador Chris Trott and France's ambassador Marc Trouyet embarked on a three-day visit facilitated by the UN mission, to the country's Upper Nile area.
"We were very keen to go to Fashoda and then to explain to people across the country that South Sudan played a role in helping us to reconcile," said Mr Trott, "And we wanted to say to South Sudan 'Thank you for helping us to reconcile, and now we are here to help you through your reconciliation process'."
I [3] n Fashoda, the diplomats sat in one of the royal tukuls (traditional hut) with high arching, neatly thatched roofs displaying the unmatched artistry of whomever built the panorama of huts with fine lines that form the King's palace.
There, in the Shilluk kingdom, they engaged with King Kongo Dak Padiet, listening to his views and concerns as he gave his opinion on the current socio-politico environment and chimed in with precision about the current stalemate with the implementation of a peace agreement that has seen the timelines moved forward several times. They also presented him with a copy of their signed accord.
"As an ambassador based in Juba, it's important for me to see and understand and report the reality of how people are living on the ground," said Mr Trouyet, "But more importantly we visited Fashoda to send a message of how, more than a century ago, we resolved our differences, not through battle but through diplomacy – and it still holds today."
Next, the diplomats would visit the proverbial "ground zero" – the main building in Kodok town where France's Major Jean-Baptiste Marchand and Britain's Sir Herbert Kitchener signed the agreement. Much like the truce, the building still stands strong. It now houses the Fashoda area governor's office.
[4] While paying a courtesy call on the Fashoda area governor, the diplomatic duo presented him with a copy of their own agreement and reiterated the importance of not just the signing of it but the spirit that has held their two countries together for years.
"Our request to the South Sudanese people is: as we did, resolve your differences through dialogue rather than through conflict," said Mr Trott.
The ambassadors and their teams also visited the Central Upper Nile area governor in Malakal, and toured the UN mission's protection site as part of their visit, to gain a better understanding of the issues in the region.

May we begin with "It's OK to go with Pink"? Guys you won't look like the tooth fairy if you don pink. A baby pink shirt can be very fetching indeed for all you hunks out there.
If summer is the time women reach for the pastels, do some reaching yourself.
Ditch the beige, the bland; do away with the dark and the drab. Experiment with some cool hued shirts this summer, to make you look hot.
Remember the color you wear reflects onto the face, so remember to pick colors that enhance your hair and skin color, to say nothing of your eyes.
If you have been chary of doing it so far, try the light summer suit this season. Give the dull heavy formality of the boring old dark suit a miss. Step out a bit with the light colored suit. So what if it feels a little unconventional, it may just take years off you!
As for the ties, stripes are just so last century! Experiment with polka dots, abstract designs, or even jewel colored solids. The right tie can light up your outfit and elevate it from the mundane to the eye-catching!
So step out in style this summer, with a little help from the color spectrum.

Voxengo is pleased to announce the release of Soniformer version 3, a spectral mastering dynamics processor plug-in for professional music production applications, available in AudioUnit and VST plugin formats, for Mac OS X (v.10.4.11 and later) and Windows (32-bit and 64-bit) computers.
During its operation, Soniformer splits incoming sound signal into 32 spectral bands. This makes Soniformer a powerful and precise tool for mastering and sound restoration purposes. Every parameter in Soniformer is defined by means of a graphic envelope which is freely-modifiable and which may contain unlimited number of control points. Beside usual threshold, attack, release and compression/expander ratio parameters Soniformer offers you control over "stereo width" and "panning" parameters making Soniformer an effective tool for stereo field adjustments.
Not only Soniformer offers you an easy-to-use parameter envelope editing interface, it also features a comprehensive set of spectral metering tools: you can switch between input, output, stereo correlation and stereo balance spectrums. The spectral gain change meter which always presents on the user interface gives you an outline of the overall signal power change applied by the plug-in's processing chain.
Soniformer 3.0 added the following features since version 2 (version 3 can be used in projects alongside version 2):
* Stereo balance and correlation metering
* Range envelope
* Linear-phase oversampling
* Multi-channel support
* Multi-platform support
* Routing matrix
* Preset manager
* User interface coloration
* User interface re-scaling
* Channel grouping
* Plug-in instance naming
Introductory price of USD 89.95 will be effective for three weeks from now, which is 20% off the regular price of USD 109.95. Upgrading from the previous version costs USD 49.95 if previous version was purchased earlier than 90 days from now: otherwise the upgrade is free during this grace period. Demo version of Soniformer can be downloaded freely at the Voxengo website.

1. Preliminaries
a) You are truth
b) Mind is Barrier
c) No-mind is the Door
2. Think that all phenomena are like Dreams
3. Examine the Nature of Unborn Awareness
4. Let the Remedy itself go free on its own
5. Settle in the Nature of basic Cognition, the essence. Relax. Do nothing.
Above are the first 5 points covered in previous daily posts. Read them calmly and swallow them into your unconscious mind. It is of no matter if you cannot 'recall' them or feel you 'understand' them completely: 'recall' and 'understanding' are functions of Mind and as we can see above, Mind is Barrier. Instead, just inhale the fragrance of them.
If you would like to see all the points in one article, then you can read Atisha's training and my response (not commentary) at https://niume.com/post/212645; and http://lindenthorp.com/2017/01/04/atisha-and-the-7…-it-for-yourself/
Point 6. Between Sessions consider Phenomena as Phantoms.
Phenomena which we 'perceive' are displaying on a continuous film loop. They are not real. They and so we are the elements of dreams: They and we are 'hungry ghosts.' Therefore, the visual life we become entrenched or even imprisoned in, is a distraction from reality, a trick of Mind.
Our awareness, our universal consciousness, our True Nature is the only reality. It is eternal and boundless. It is pure energy flowing where it is needed.
If we are awake and aware, then moving into the vast field of awareness becomes our habitual state. We crave direct contact with reality and our True Nature all the time: we have become tired of watching the screen.
So, eventually, when the worldly film starts to roll again it is strangely unsatisfying. We long to move back to our spectacular state of awareness. At this point, we can easily notice how life is populated by phantoms who are locked in sleep or an intoxicated state.
This is how we can become fully integrated and amalgamated with the Universe. Buddha referred to it as 'making bonds with the universe.' There is no separation for fully aware energies flowing freely in the boundless field following the fragrance of our divine origins.
Indigenous peoples living in their traditional lives are fully integrated. They do not know what films are or why they are needed. They are the true custodians of the Earth contributing all their attention to preserving the natural world and working in partnership with the universe. They are evolving through the visual field, but in love with moving on to the next stage, the glories of Death.

I consider myself somewhat of an expert on concealers. I am always looking for a great undereye concealer and a great acne concealer. There tends to be a lot of great undereye comcealers out there with every brand releasing a new formula every year and sometimes more! But concealers that specializes in acne is few and far between.
Why do I need an acne concealer? I tend to break out frequently. My undereye concealers are usually a little lighter to brighten the undereye area and tend to be more emollient to hydrate the delicate skin surrounding the eye. But a good face concealer needs to be the exact same shade as your skin. And since I don't want the zit getting any more clogged, having a concealer with anti-acne healing properties is a real plus.
So when It Cosmetics released their new acne concealers, I ran out and got some. Bye Bye Breakout Concealer is specially created to be a drying lotion and a concealer. It's infused with anti-aging peptides and hydrolyzed collagen, plus oil absorbing zinc oxide, kaolin clay, witch hazel, tea tree, sulfur, and a gentle AHA/BHA complex. The Bye Bye Breakout Powder contains the same ingredients and is designed to combat shine and create an airbrushed finish.
I picked up the concealers in Light and Medium and the powder in Light/Medium. For reference, I have a light olive complexion, NC 30 in MAC. The medium was just a hair to dark and the light just a hair too light. (Of course). But I like having both for when I've been tanning or not. The powder was also slightly darker than I had hoped.
From the bottom, light concealer, medium concealer, powder. Near my wrist, is the light concealer with the setting powder over it and medium concealer with setting powder over it. The powder really darkens both concealers considerably. I think I might go back for the translucent formula. Although I already have an anti acne powder from Bare Minerals that's similar.
So how were my results? I have to say, pretty flawless. The coverage is great, really covers the blemish. The finish was nice and dry looking. I could really cover the blemish well. The hardest part is really matching the colors to my skin and making sure powder doesn't go on too dark. But once I did it, it looked great. I also didn't notice this making my pimple any worse.
I don't know how well this would work on fairer skin-tones. The light concealer is much too dark as it's almost perfect for me, There's no way any fair or porcelain skin-tones could use the light/medium powder. The light/medium powder is darker than I expected but it's a great addition to my concealer arsenal. I can use it to darken any concealer. But you need a really light hand with it.
The Bye Bye Breakout Concealer retails for $28 for a .35 fl oz., and the Bye Bye Breakout Powder also retails for $28 for .24 oz.
I'm happy with my results and would recommend this product if you can find a color match.

Re "Manhattan Beach bans sale of vaping products" (News, Nov. 7):
The vaping crisis facing our youth is a rapidly growing problem. The city of Manhattan Beach's decision to ban the sale of all vaping products within its city limits is a good step in addressing the problem.
Although I understand Manhattan Beach City Councilwoman Susan Hadley's dissenting vote, I am disappointed in her stating that schools could do more in addressing the issue. Make no mistake, schools do a lot in addressing the myriad of issues facing our youth.
The current vaping crisis, like many issues teachers face in the classroom, was not created by schools. However, schools are tasked yet again to fix the problem with limited resources. This model is simply unsustainable.
Instead of blaming schools, I urge every council person to assist school districts by passing similar bans and find additional funding sources to aid in the cessation of teen vaping.
— Jason Y. Calizar, Torrance
Story fails to mention all the good police officers
Re "California's criminal cops" (News, Nov. 10):
Your two-day feature on bad cops saddens me. You are highlighting the very small minority of policemen. You are forgetting all the brave men and women who lay down their lives every day for us.
Who do we call when we are frightened or afraid? It's 911 of course. And they come willingly into harm's way. I thank God for the fine police force we have in our city. We should be praying for them every day.
— Joanne Mitchell, Covina
Environmental laws
Re "Who's to blame for our state's wildfires?" (Question of the Week, Nov. 5):
I think the environmental laws are too strict. We should keep trying to clean the forest to prevent fires.
— Richard Metzger, Porter Ranch
Good reason to whine
Re "Dems need to stop whining about the election" (Letters, Nov. 1):
Yes, the Democrats are still whining about the election results. And I am one of them.
The people elected Hillary Clinton, in case you forgot so, I feel we should get a little latitude for "whining." The guy in office really wasn't wanted by the people. Ever heard of the Electoral College? That's who elected Donald, not the people.
— Terence Rice, Los Angeles

Words: Steve Brown
Mika goes cruising in his new video for his latest single 'Sanremo'.
The new single comes from Mika's brand-new album 'My Name is Michael Holbrook' and in the new video – directed by W.I.Z - we see the singer/songwriter leave his wife and daughter to visit an underground gay cruising area where a sailor is seen pour milk down over men.
W.I.Z told Billboard: "[The clip takes place in] an era when homosexuality, if not illegal, was socially unacceptable, a time of discrimination and persecution.
"'Sanremo' represents his utopian dream, a fictional place of liberation and transcendence."
Mika, who has appeared as a judge on The X Factor Italy and The Voice France in recent years, is set to return to London next month to play a show at the Shepherd's Bush Empire, before embarking on a Europe-wide series of shows as part of his not-so-tiny 'Tiny Love Tiny Tour'.
The album is Mika's first full-length record since 2015's No Place in Heaven.

AMC has had some trouble finding worthy heirs to its dramas Breaking Bad and Mad Men, and while The Walking Dead continues to be the most-watched scripted series on television, many fans are growing tired of its redundancies and purposefully slow pacing and are starting to quit. What's a formerly prestigious network to do? Commission a sprawling Western epic based on a New York Times bestselling novel? Seems reasonable!
The series is The Son (based on Philipp Meyer's book), and it's a multi-generational story of a Texas tycoon, Eli McCullough (Pierce Brosnan), who "breaks bad" after his difficult youth and becomes ruthless in his quest for power. It's a little bit Dynasty, a little bit Giant, and a little bit of every one of AMC's male anti-hero dramas of the past. Instead of being aggressively anti-Native American, though, The Son will at least also tell the story of young Eli who was raised by Comanches after his family was slaughtered. (Of note: his younger self will be played by Jacob Lofland, who was a stand-out in Mud). The saga will continue with the tale of Eli's beloved granddaughter, who ends up being the powerful CEO of an oil company.
All of this sounds good, but none of it sounds particularly new from a narrative perspective. It remains to be seen if the series will find a way to make itself distinct in a TV landscape that has never been more crowded, especially since we've seen so many of these kinds of sprawling historical epics (of varying quality) from History and A&E in the past few years. But I proceed with cautious optimism, because I do love a good Western.
The series was co-created by showrunner Kevin Meyer (Defiance) along with Hemlock Grove's Brian McGreevy and Lee Shipman. Tom Harper (War & Peace, Peaky Blinders) is set to direct (which is a very fine choice). The cast also includes Henry Garrett (Beauty and the Beast), Paola Nunez (Amor en Custodia), Carlos Bardem (Assassin's Creed), Zahn McClarnon (Fargo), Jess Weixler (The Good Wife), David Wilson Barnes (The Bourne Legacy), Sydney Lucas (Fun Home), James Parks (The Hateful Eight) and Elizabeth Frances (Love).
The Son will premiere in the spring of 2017; here's the official synopsis, and you can check out more of the first images below:
The ten-episode, one-hour drama traces the transformation of Eli McCullough (Brosnan) from good-natured innocent to calculating killer. He loses everything on the wild frontier, setting him on the path to building a ranching-and-oil dynasty of unsurpassed wealth and privilege. The series deftly explores how Eli's ruthlessness and quest for power triggers consequences that span generations, as the McCullough's rise to become one the most powerful family dynasties in Texas.

A wizard studies ritual magic which usually includes Ordered Spellcraft. Licensing organizations have cropped up in cities and most urban regions require wizards to have licenses in order to do public services.
People filled with wisdom, meant to guide and help others with using spellcraft; spellcraft teacher; philosopher of magic
Social Status
Most societies revere a wizard for their wealth of knowledge
Generally, a wizard prepares spells by studying their personal spellbook. Magical notation, however, while it relies on common concepts to describe the forces invoked in any given incantation, is individual to each user, so while two wizards may know the identical process to create the identical spell effect, each will notate the spell somewhat differently. A skilled wizard can decipher another's spell notation, given time and favorable conditions for study. Of course, wizards being wizards, most know a simple spell to simplify even this task.
When casting spells, wizards often use magical implements such as staffs, orbs, or wands. These implements concentrate the arcane power in a spell, increasing its effectiveness. All wizards have a degree of specialization in implements, preferring one kind over another. Some take a liking to orbs, which they use to increase the duration of their spells' effects. Others prefer using wands to enhance their accuracy or staffs to defend themselves.
Provided Services
The most basic spells available to wizards require little skill on the part of the wizard in order for them to be cast. Such spells are typically small tricks of magic such as creating a light source, a sound, or moving a small object telekinetically. Wizards are also skilled in the use of rituals, powerful spells that require a significant amount of time and energy to cast, thereby making them impractical in battle but immensely useful in non-combat applications.

that means it will go all over the place....:D...nightmare for the toilet cleaners:D
guy's, please!!
i had already in my mind... some decor is easy to change!
Jelena... Keep calm and think: decor are the only subject to be discussed. The rest of the render is simply perfect... :)
we only teasing you...we like the images..:)
Excellent renders!

Vote On TSA Nominee Caught Up In Union Dispute
ROBERT SIEGEL, host:
One of many issues highlighted by the attack on Northwest Flight 253 involves all those TSA airports screeners who scan your bags and check your ticket. For nearly a year now, the Transportation Security Administration has been without a permanent leader. President Obama has named Los Angeles Airport Security Assistant Chief Erroll Southers to the post. But the Senate has yet to vote on that nomination. That is because one Republican senator wants a guarantee that the administration won't allow collective bargaining for the screeners.
As NPR's Brian Naylor reports, it's an issue the Senate has visited before and remembers well.
BRIAN NAYLOR: GOP Senator Jim DeMint of South Carolina says it would be wrong if, in his words, union bosses were to dictate security at the nation's airports. In a statement released by his office, DeMint says the attempted terror attack in Detroit is a perfect example of why the Obama administration should not unionize the TSA. Earlier this month, DeMint questioned Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano on the issue.
Senator JIM DEMINT (Republican, South Carolina): I mean, how can unionization and collective bargaining enhance security in our airports?
Secretary JANET NAPOLITANO (Department of Homeland Security): Well, Senator, the answer is collective bargaining and security are not mutually exclusive concepts. And they're done - these types of agreements are negotiated all the time, all over the United States.
NAYLOR: Giving airport screeners the right to bargain collectively was a nonstarter for the Bush administration back in 2002, when it drew up legislation creating the Department of Homeland Security and put airport screeners under its jurisdiction. While employees were able to join a union, they were blocked from bargaining for a contract. When Democrats tried to insert a right to collective bargaining, they were attacked for opposing Homeland Security. In the elections of 2002, Georgia Senator Max Cleland, a Democrat, saw himself depicted in a TV ad alongside pictures of Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein.
(Soundbite of TV Advertisement)
Unidentified Man: Max Cleland has voted against the president's vital homeland security efforts 11 times. Max Cleland says he has the courage to lead, but the record proves Max Cleland is just misleading.
NAYLOR: That fall, Cleland lost to Saxby Chambliss, the Republican who has held that Georgia seat since. But times have changed. Seven years later, Homeland Security Secretary Napolitano had this to say.
Sec. NAPOLITANO: I think that we can accomplish collective bargaining, and also do that in such a fashion that we never, at one moment, sacrifice any wit of security, that that can be built into any collective bargaining agreement.
NAYLOR: DeMint makes the argument that allowing airport screeners to bargain for a contract would jeopardize TSA's ability to adjust quickly to new security threats. He says security decisions that take minutes to implement today could take weeks or months of arbitration. In fact, other security and law enforcement officers within the Department of Homeland Security, including the Border Patrol and customs officers, are already unionized. John Gage is president of the American Federation of Government Employees, the largest federal employee union. The AFGE hopes to win the right to represent airport screeners. He says DeMint's comments amount to demagoguery.
Mr. JOHN GAGE (President, American Federation of Government Employees): Having a union certainly is not in any way - affect national security. And of course, we use the examples of the police that rushed into the World Trade Centers of 9/11, and the firefighters. And even our two officers down at Fort Hood, who took down the shooter, were AFGE union members.
NAYLOR: A spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says because DeMint has placed a hold on Southers' nomination - in effect, threatening a filibuster - it will take 60 votes to proceed. Reid says he will schedule a vote on Southers as soon as the Senate returns to Washington next month.

Sri Lankan and Pakistani Intelligence Scheme Against Eelam TamilsSalem-News.com
Pakistan is directly involved for the first Time in the act of devastating Tamils.
(LONDON TBC) - It has come to limelight that the Sri Lankan Intelligence Agency has been relentlessly hatching diabolical plots since long with dark intent against the harmless Eelam Tamils in order that the Eelam Tamils should never have a conducive link with India.
It is disheartening to know that the Sri Lankan Government have chosen to our great shock a few knee crooking Eelam Tamils and fielded them in many regions in Europe to implement their dark design.
The Sri Lankan Intelligence has come to realise that if cannot with stand or face the occurrences that took place in Geneva. Hence if has started to seek the support of I.S.I, the Intelligence Agency of Pakistan. With the support of the I.S.I so enlisted the Sri Lankan Government is deriving pleasure in involving in many abhorrent activities.
From valuable sources it is learnt that I.S.I of Pakistan is giving effective training to a few traitorous Eelam Tamils to be keen on breeding without break animosity between India and the Sri Lankan Tamils. As a part of their fowl deeds the officers of the Sri Lankan Intelligence Agency in Britain have picked and chosen a few English knowing Eelam Tamils and introduced them to the officers of the I.S.I of Pakistan and instigated them to act against the interest of the Eelam Tamils the theme of Honour.
An Eelam Tamil female writer, an agent of K.P (the starch supporter of Sri Lankan Government) and the son of the deceased leader of EROS are a few among the despicable hirelings who have sold their birth right for a bowl of porridge.
The sole aim of the Intelligence Agency of Sri Lanka and that of Pakistan is that the Eelam Tamils and India should never come to an amicable settlement nor should they have a healthy relationship.
The Army, the naval Force and the Air force of Sri Lanka have been never doing anything except deriving devilish pleasure in totally annihilating the Tamils the Indigenous people of Eelam.
It is worth mentioning that Pakistan is directly involved for the first Time in the act of devastating the Tamils.
Fear has grabbed the Eelam Tamils as a few of their flesh of flesh and bone of bones have willingly involved as confederates in these treacherous deeds which add fuel to fire.
Sri Lanka is acting with a determined will to subdue the Eelam Tamils and destroy them. Pakistan is keen on defeating India. Enemy's enemy is a friend. Hence Sri Lanka and Pakistan have become friends. The Intelligence Agency of Sri Lanka and that of Pakistan are bent on butchering the Eelam Tamils and nullifying India, a great peninsula.

This article simply makes lots of outrageous statements. There are no reference to any interviews, comments, information about who met what and said what. No evidence what so ever. "in order that the Eelam Tamils should never have a conducive link with India."? "Fowl deeds"? what do they even mean. The article is confusing riddled with statements meant to shock but no face value. Expected better writing and reporting skills. Disappointed

LOL - This article is such a joke! Why is this website on Google News again? I've already contacted Google to have you'll removed. Articles like this take away valuable time from the real discussions.
Editor: Makes you feisty doesn't it? Don't worry, we have plenty of material about Pakistan coming forward and you won't be having us removed from anything, such nonsense. We've been online for eight years, almost 25,000 articles, not the kind of thing easily or achieved or taken away. .

New Zealand - Challenge News, July 1990
Visiting Speaker Warns Of Deception
Outreach Leader Sees Danger In New-Ageism
The New Age movement is not a fad it's the greatest challenge to Christianity since Gnosticism in the third century.
So says Stanton Herpick, who is in New Zealand this month speaking on the New Age philosophies.
And he says it is growing by staggering proportions, with up to 60 million people involved in the movement in the United States.
Mr. Herpick says New Age philosophies are visible at all levels of society from large corporations to health and fitness techniques.
"It's really centered on the enthronement of man as a God unto himself."
He says the New Age cults maintain that man is intrinsically good and that God is in man, and men can become "self realized as a god."
One of the aims of the movement is to bring forth a new world order, including a one-world church, says Mr. Herpick, the founder and president of World Christian Outreach, an evangelism and support movement based in California.
Although the New Age movement has such a wide effect, he says it's not a single organization, but a wide range of philosophies influenced by a common spirit, which is one of deception.
But he says the movement is loosely organized, and one sign of this was a full-page advertisement which appeared in newspapers in 20 major cities around the world in April 1982 announcing the new age (of Aquarius) and the coming of Maitreiya, the master of this new age.
New age philosophies do not appear as estab-lished in New Zealand, says Mr. Herpick, but he has seen examples like the Sri Chinmoy movement here and the "getting back to mother earth" meetings in Australia.
But he adds he is not in New Zealand to instill fear but to warn the Church, and point out the theological deception of the movement, which eliminates the cross.
New Age beliefs can be seen in big business, in some of the motivation courses which centre on the influence of self, when God's plan for us is to be dependent on him, he says.
Holistic health, based on Eastern mysticism, and fads like self-energizing, crystal energy, light and color therapy and flotation tanks are all examples of New Age philosophies, he says.
But Mr. Herpick is also confident the movement will not succeed because he says it is based on a lie. It cannot deliver on its promises and it is not of God.
"These people are going to realize that they are not going to get satisfaction from their beliefs."
He says Christians should witness to New Age followers by telling them what Jesus has done in their lives, and how he truly satisfies their hearts.
"So Christians should be properly centered on the main points of their faith - the shed blood of Jesus Christ."
At the same time, he says, New Age believers can be challenged on what their source of authority is - as Christians can point to the Bible.

On 4th May 2005 we reached the same room for Preksha Dhyan. Everyone was looking bright and clear. Everyone was getting ready to take their respective place mirror in Preksha Meditation. I was also sitting there with a lot of curiosity.
Just as on previous day I laughed and cried from the same hut. And all of a sudden I turned in to a fairy and flew towards the sky. The next moment I felt as if I had become a fakir (mendicant) wearing a blue robe and sitting on a chair in a cave near a lake. I seem to be old. I found many disciples and friends standing in prayer. I didn't see anything nor did I think. The body seemed to be relaxed. I was happy.

Nonprofits seek help for Maryland Gives More campaign
Groups rely on money, time donated on Giving Tuesday
Maryland nonprofits tallied donations on Giving Tuesday, but it's not just monetary donations that count.
After Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Tuesday is Giving Tuesday, a day when people are urged to donate money or time to their favorite charity. The tradition started four years ago and grows in popularity every year.
"The Maryland Gives More campaign is an effort to really highlight the generosity of donors in Maryland. The purpose is to defend Maryland's title as the most-generous state in the country on Giving Tuesday 2015," said Allison Albert, with the group Maryland Nonprofits.
Last year, Maryland raised more than $9 million for nonprofits on Giving Tuesday. Nonprofits hope to collect even more this year and keep that title.
The people at Moveable Feast said every little bit helps significantly.
"We are a food-and-nutrition program for those who have critical, life-threatening illnesses. (We give) home-delivered meals throughout the year to anybody who can't afford or have the ability to prepare home-delivered meals, so all the money we raise from Giving Tuesday will go toward making sure that people have food," said Tom Bonderenko, with Moveable Feast.
Volunteer hours also contribute to the overall goal. The Baltimore Dance Crews project donated time to teach Baltimore City Department of Recreation and Parks employees some moves.
"They're training our staff. They can actually take it back to our centers and train the teen population that come into their facilities," said Stella Clanton, with the Department of Recreation and Parks.
Giving Tuesday is a big boost to many organizations, kicking off the holiday fundraising season.
"Giving Tuesday is really an opportunity to get back to the roots of what the holiday season means, what the season is about," Albert said.

Are Your Lunch-time Dining Habits Impacting Your Career?
Desktop dining rules
"No eggs, tinned fish or crunchy Twiglets", were some of the responses I got on social networking site LinkedIn when I asked whether there were any workplace rules for what you could or could not eat at your desk. It was the waft of chicken korma that had got me wondering. A weekly special from the BBC canteen, it's a popular lunch in our office. Most eat it at their desk; the pungent smell drifting slowly through the air.
Sandwiches, soup, crisps or even a quick biscuit snack... desktop dining is something most of us have done. Either you're too busy to take a break or want people to think you're too important to step away.
The inevitable keyboard crumbs, audible crunching and often powerful odours are enough to wind up even the most easygoing of colleagues.

Pulling together the maturity and heavier Teutonic Thrash leanings evidenced on their last album and combining them with the frenetic hooks and sheer damn Thrash of their debut, Evile have unveiled their undisputed pinnacle! While not content with scaling the heights of the British Metal scene, these 4 Yorkshire lads will soon have the world at their feet as they lay down the Thrash anthems of the 21st century!
01. Five Serpent¹s Teeth
02. In Dreams of Terror
03. Cult

05. Xaraya
06. Origin of Oblivion
07. Centurion
08. In Memoriam
09. Descent into Madness
10. Long Live the New Flesh

Sumdog Math Program
We have signed the students up for an online math website called Sumdog. Each child has a username and password taped in the cover of their agenda book. All they need to do is go to www.sumdog.com and log in using that information and they can play games that will help them become quite proficient in math! This is a fun way to practice math and that is what is most important! If your child is not allowed on the internet at home or does not have access to the internet, he or she can play at school when time permits. All students will be given some time at school to play this game. Please email me with any questions you may have. Later in the year we will be doing competitions with other schools using the website but the students can play on it anytime. The questions may start out hard, but the game is testing to see what the student knows by level. It will not take long for the game to figure out what level is independent practice for your student.

A dissenting creditor, who may have disagreed with other lenders to draw a resolution plan with a common idea will now be assured of liquidation value, at least.
In an amendment to Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, a resolution plan needs to identify specific sources of funds that will be used for paying the liquidation value due to dissenting creditors, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India said in a late evening release on Monday.
For this purpose, the 'dissenting financial creditor', according to amended regulations, means a financial creditor who voted against the resolution plan or abstained from voting for the resolution plan, approved by the committee of creditors.
In the past one year about 475 cases were admitted at the National Company Law Tribunals, dedicated bankruptcy courts. Some cases -9-10 companies – have seen the light of the day with successful resolution plans. The courts have ordered about 5% of admitted companies for liquidation.
According to the amendments, it is not necessary to disclose 'liquidation value' in the information memorandum.
After the receipt of resolution plan(s)…..the resolution professional shall provide the liquidation value to every member of the committee of creditors after obtaining an undertaking from the member to the effect that such member shall maintain confidentiality of the liquidation value, IBBI said.
The amendments have come into force from the first day of the new year 2018.
