* Molouhi motionless as judge reads sentence
* U.S. says spy charges baseless
* Jailing independent figures hallmark of modern Syria
(Fixes dateline to Feb 14 from Jan 14)
By Khaled Yacoub Oweis
DAMASCUS, Feb 14 (Reuters) - A special Syrian security court sentenced a teenaged blogger on Monday to five years in jail on charges of revealing information to a foreign country, despite U.S. calls to release her, rights defenders said.
The long jail term for high school student Tal al-Molouhi, under arrest since 2009 and now 19 years old, is another sign of an intensifying crackdown on opposition in Syria in the wake of the Tunisian and Egyptian revolutions, they said.
Molouhi had written articles on the Internet saying she yearned for a role in shaping the future of Syria, which has been under the control of the Baath Party for the last 50 years.
She also asked U.S. President Barack Obama to do more to support the Palestinian cause. A security court charged her several months ago with "revealing information that should remain hushed to a foreign country".
Wearing trousers and a cream coloured wool hat, Molouhi was brought chained and blindfolded under heavy security on Monday to the court, which convenes at a cordoned section of the Palace of Justice in the centre of the Syrian capital.
Molouhi was motionless after hearing the sentence and said nothing. Her mother, who was waiting in the courtyard, burst out crying after being told the sentence.
Lawyers, the only ones allowed in the closed session, said the judge — there are no prosecutors in the special court — did not give evidence or details as to why Molouhi was charged.
"Trumping up charges that imply treason as a lesson for others is quite old fashioned," said a rights defender who has followed the case, asking not to be identified.
"Sadly, the regime has not learnt any lessons from Tunisia or Egypt," the rights defender said, referring to upheaval that brought down the Tunisian and Egyptian leaders in recent weeks.
The U.S. State Department said last week that Molouhi should be released because allegations of U.S. espionage connections were baseless and Syrian citizens were entitled to universal rights of free expression.
Molouhi's mother, who saw her only twice since she was arrested, wrote a letter to President Bashar al-Assad last year imploring him to release her daughter, saying Molouhi had dabbled in politics without understanding it.
There was no comment from Syrian officials. Officials have previously said that political prisoners in Syria violated the constitution, which was amended in the 1970s to make the Baath Party "leader of the state and society".
Molouhi's arrest stirred a storm in the Arab blogosphere, with numerous postings lambasting what was called indiscriminate repression in Syria.
The Internet is a rare outlet for the expression of independent views in Syria, despite surveillance and bans on numerous sites. Several Syrian bloggers and writers have been arrested and sentenced to jail.
Harsher terms were handed out this year as mass protests helped by the Internet spread in the Arab Middle East.
The security court last month sentenced Abbas Abbas, an 69-year old leftist, to seven years in jail, while a 75-year old Islamist who called through the Internet for Egypt-like mass protests was also arrested.
The Syrian state has a long history of jailing political leaders. Leading opposition figure Riad al-Turk spent 25 years in prison, including more than 17 years in solitary confinement.
Eighty year-old Haitham al-Maleh, a former judged who criticised corruption, is serving a three year sentence, having spent seven years as a political prisoner in the 1980s.

Mohamed Salah is confident that he will be in Russia for the World Cup.
He was reduced to tears as he left the field during the first half of the Champions League final between Liverpool and Real Madrid in Kiev.
The Egyptian forward was wrestled to the ground after battling Sergio Ramos for the ball.
The 25-year-old, who dislocated his shoulder as a result of the tackle, assured fans that he will back sooner than expected.
"It was a very tough night, but I'm a fighter. Despite the odds, I'm confident that I'll be in Russia to make you all proud. Your love and support will give me the strength I need," Salah tweeted on Sunday.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp admitted during the post-match press conference that the injury was likely to be severe.
The Egypt FA subsequently tweeted to say the team doctor had spoken to Liverpool and Salah's x-ray had shown ligament damage rather than a fracture.

Jamie Mansfield presents the Cena collection, a selection of kitchen utensils based on conventional cooking tools with subtle changes for added functionality. Consisting of only two components, the untensils are constructed of a wooden tool machined from maple with a thermoformed Corian handle. The idea behind the project was to use the offcuts from Corian kitchen installations which are often thrown away. The foot part of the handle is weighted to cantilever the tool end of the utensil off the worktop to prevent contact and possible contamination.

It is interesing to hear that there are companies that have data centers for one day staff salary calculations?! How about processing the salary once a month on an sql express database that runs on 1GHz processor with 1 GB RAM? I am sure it is possible to process the salary for one million staff members in less than 10 minutes with the above configuration?! it is good that you did not mention their name here.
The scientists example completely makes the cloud computing an excellent way to go.

Jesus said to his disciples, "As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you; abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love. I have said these things to you so that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete" (John 15:9-11).
While reading this passage, which is a portion of Sunday's gospel, I was struck by Jesus emphasis on joy. He wants our joy to be "complete." That led me to theologian Paul Tillich, who reflected on the joy of the Christian life in The New Being:
Blessedness is the eternal element in joy, that which makes it possible for joy to include in itself the sorrow out of which it arises, and which it takes into itself. In the Beatitudes, Jesus calls the poor, those who mourn, those who hunger and thirst, those who are persecuted, "blessed." And He says to them: "Rejoice and be glad!" Joy within sorrow is possible to those who are blessed, to those in whom joy has the dimension of the eternal.
Here we must once more reply to those who attack Christianity because they believe that it destroys the joy of life. In view of the Beatitudes they say that Christianity undercuts the joy of this life by pointing to and preparing for another life. They even challenge the blessedness in the promised life as a refined form of seeking for pleasure in the future life. Again we must confess that in many Christians, joy in this way is postponed till after death, and that there are Biblical words which seem to support this answer. Nevertheless, it is wrong. Jesus will give His joy to His disciples now. They shall get it after He has left them, which means in this life. And Paul asks the Philippians to have joy now. This cannot be otherwise, for blessedness is the expression of God's eternal fulfillment. Blessed are those who participate in this fulfillment here and now. Certainly eternal fulfillment must be seen not only as eternal which is present, but also as eternal which is future. But if it is not seen in the present, it cannot be seen at all.
This joy which has in itself the depth of blessedness is asked for and promised in the Bible. It preserves in itself its opposite, sorrow. It provides the foundation for happiness and pleasure. It is present in all levels of man's striving for fufillment. It consecrates and directs them. It does not diminish or weaken them. It does not take away the risks and dangers of the joy of life. It makes the joy of life possible in pleasure and pain, in happiness and unhappiness, in ecstasy and sorrow. Where there is joy, there is fulfillment. And where there is fulfillment, there is joy. In fulfillment and joy the inner aim of life, the meaning of creation, and the end of salvation, are attained. (Tillich, Paul, The New Being: Chapter 19, The Meaning of Joy, Chas. Schribner's Sons, 1955)
When our inner joy finds outward expression, it is "complete." When our inner joy finds outward expression, it is contageous. Joy is the essence of our salvation and the fruit of faith-filled living.
The world needs more joyful Christians! Lord, give us an abundance of joy so that we may spread it around liberally enough to change the world.

Former Osiris President Chosen as New CEO at California's Stem Cell Agency
1 comment:
- Anonymous5:29 PM
It is very disappointing that CIRM selected Randy Miller who backed obsolete mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), not someone with human embryonic stem cell (hESC) experience to back voter-approved Prop71. Randy Miller, together with CIRM vice president Ellen Feigal, are responsible for several multi-million CIRM disease team awards to MSC at UC Davis that have no commercial validation at all, and many anti-hESC and anti-Prop71 conflict of interest comments in CIRM undisclosed grant reviews. The only way for CIRM to revive and bring cures to patients is to publicly support Prop71 by giving out hESC research awards, do the right thing that CA voters and patients have waited for so long. If CIRM cannot even issue a RFA for hESC research, if CIRM cannot have a transparent grant review process to fund hESC research according to Prop71, if CIRM continues to take its anti-hESC position, as where all the money of CIRM awards so far have pointed to, it is hard to imagine anything is going to change except let a well-wished proposition down the drain.ReplyDelete

June 5, 1997, Section B, Page 15Buy Reprints
George Fenneman, the gracious sidekick to the comedian Groucho Marx on television's ''You Bet Your Life,'' died at his home here on May 29. He was 77.
The cause was complications related to emphysema, his wife, Peggy, said today.
Bob Dwan, director of the long-running quiz show that featured the wise-cracking Groucho and the deferential Mr. Fenneman, said the entertainer's courtly manner made him the ideal straight man.
''He was the perfect foil for Groucho,'' Mr. Dwan said of Mr. Fenneman, who was often the good-natured butt of Groucho's jokes. ''We didn't pick him for that reason, however. We picked him because he was very bright, someone who could keep track of the quiz score and do the math on the spot.''
Mr. Dwan added: ''George's main principle was that he didn't tell the jokes, no matter how good a reply he might have. He knew what his role was, and he was, above all, a gentleman.''
Mr. Fenneman joined the show in 1950, the year it moved from radio to television, and stayed with it until it went off the air in 1961.
Mr. Fenneman's voice was also heard in the 1950's as one of the ''Dragnet'' announcers who proclaimed of the crime drama that viewers had just seen, ''The names have been changed to protect the innocent.''
As recently as 1993 he performed the ''Dragnet'' voice on ''The Simpsons,'' said Frank Ferrante, an actor who played the role of Groucho Marx on stage in New York and London.
Mr. Fenneman was also the host of the 1963 comedy ''Your Funny, Funny Films,'' which was broadcast on ABC. It resembled another hit of the era, ''Candid Camera,'' and in its own way was a forerunner of the wildly successful ''America's Funniest Home Videos.''
As an actor, Mr. Fenneman appeared in Howard Hawks's cult science fiction classic, ''The Thing.''
But he is best remembered as Groucho's sidekick in the show in which contestants bet all or part of an initial purse, depending on their ability to answer questions in a chosen category.
In a documentary about Mr. Marx, who died in 1977, Mr. Fenneman recalled how he was Groucho's straight man to the end. He told of walking the frail comedian back to his bed after one of their last visits and hearing him whisper weakly, ''Fenneman, you always were a lousy dancer.''
Mr. Fenneman, who was born in Beijing, grew up in San Francisco.
Besides his wife, he is survived by three children.

With my acceptance to NYU, I'm exposed to so many new experiences. From doing my homework at an enormous library facility to getting my feet wet in all sorts of the campus activities, it's a truly remarkable and nouveau experience for me—and I enjoy every second of it. One of the fresh and fun activities I'm about to explore for the first time this year is attending one of the college's biggest events of the season. While I don't know much about the sports, I'm dedicated to hitting the game day in style.
The first question that comes to mind when I think about attending a sport game is what to wear? I wrote a few months ago about my strategy about the Yankee game outfits, but are those rules relevant to any sports game or just baseball? Trying to figure out which style decision to make, I stopped by at Flying Colors Apparel where I found this bright orange Flying Colors Auburn Tigers Touchdown Twist Dress. It's so girly and casual at the same time—I loved it at first sight!
While usually I'm not a fan of denim, I felt like this casual glam look required the presence of my old favorite denim jacket. I've got this piece very long time ago back in Russia and it's my second time wearing it on the blog. Considering how nicely the deep navy shade of this jacket contrasts with a bright orange shade of Flying Colors Auburn twist dress, I feel that I need to wear this denim jacket more often. I'm also making sure to give this dress a go at least a few times before the weather changes as I adore how this cute and colorful this piece looks on me.
Finally, since the game day involves lots of walking and standing, I opted in for a pair of navy sneakers by Ralph Lauren. While I'm usually a "high heels everyday" kind of girl, sometimes you need to expand your style horizons and think about what works the best for the occasion.
Since we are talking about a college-related event today, I decided to create a look using only budget-friendly drugstore makeup products. While this tutorial is dedicated specifically to game day, I see myself wearing this simple yet refined look every day for classes. I also have to admit that I'm reconsidering my red lipstick addiction as I'm obsessed with this shade of orange liquid lipstick by Pop Beauty (the shade is called Poppy Pout).
Step #1
Start with a medium coverage, radiant finish Infallible Pro-Glow Foundation by L'Oreal (I used the shade #201 Classic Ivory). It's the newest product launch by the brand that already received lots of positive reviews from the beauty community for how long this foundation stays on the skin and how natural it looks. For this look, I applied my foundation with this affordable makeup sponge that I might like even better than a beauty blender!
Step #2
Using the pointy side of the same makeup sponge, apply concealer under your eyes and onto the areas that require some extra coverage. I used my all-times favorite Maybelline Instant Age Rewind in Fair.
Step #3
Set your skin with a loose powder. My current budget-friendly product in this category is Coty Airspun Face Powder in Naturally Neutral. I purchased it because Tati from Glam Life Guru was talking about it, and I never regretted it. You receive a lot of the product for the price while it works the same way as a high-end version. For my powder, I used a cute pink brush by Luxie that allows distributing the smallest amount of powder only on those areas on my skin where it's needed.
Step #4
Comb brows using a brush from Milani Easy Brow Pencil and fill in your brows with Pixi by Petra Endless Brow Gel Pen in Medium.
Step #5
For my eyes, I used a new product launch by e.l.f. Cosmetics, Clay Eyeshadow Palette in Saturday Sunsets. I applied the lightest shadow in the palette all over my lid and under the brow. Then I picked a brown shade with my Royal & Langnickel Smoky Eye BMD-421 brush and applied in on my crease. Finally, I distributed a bit of the orange-brown shade in the middle of the lid and blend all shades together.
Step #6
I prefer using a pencil liner during the day, especially if I'm not applying false lashes. Saying so, I picked e.l.f. cosmetics Eyeliner & Shadow Stick in Black Smoke to outline my eyes. I used an eyeliner side of the product to apply on my upper lid and an eyeshadow stick side to emphasize the outer corners of my lower lid.
Step #7
It's a mascara time! I applied Essence Forbidden Volume Rebel Mascara which is another recent discovery from the brand. It really adds volume to my lashes and never flakes on me.
Step #8
Add a bit glow and color to your skin by using a highlighter from Wet n Wild MegaGlo Illuminating Palette that I applied using Tapered Highlighter brush #522 by Luxie.
Step #9
The last step in my game day makeup routine is to apply Pop Beauty Permanent Pout Liquid Lipstick in the shade Poppy Pout in that will last all day and never stains. We are all set with a makeup look!
Bandanas seem to be the hottest trend this summer and I decided to transition this versatile piece into fall by styling it in my hair. In order to match my casual look to a proper hairstyle, I decided to create an effortless and voluminous hairstyle using my new limited edition electric pink flat iron by ghd. In my experience, it's one of the best flat irons I've ever tested as it allows to create so many unique hair looks by using just this one tool.
Step #1
Start with applying OGX Anti-Gravity + Hydration O2 Weightless Oil & Lift Tonic onto roots of your hair (make sure to shake the bottle before using the product). This delicious smelling mist is my new favorite product to add volume and moisture to my color treated fine hair. It's especially useful if you are trying to achieve the effortless hair effect that looks pretty, but not "overdone."
Step #2
Using ghd platinum™ electric pink styler, curl each section of your hair concentrating on the root area only so the ends of your hair stay straight. For your convenience, consider separating each section of your hair with hair clips.
Step #3
Pick a section of hair on each side of your face and secure them with hair clips. Fold your bandana three or four times (depending on how wide or narrow you'd like it to look) and run it underneath the back of your head so the ends are facing upwards.
Step #4
For added volume, consider spritzing your hair with a hair spray. I used amika Un.Done Texture Spray which is my current favorite volumizing hair spray.
With my hair and makeup done, I feel that I'm definitely ready for a game day of glam and fun experiences! I hope you enjoyed my tutorials and my look of the day. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on how you dress up and which makeup you are wearing for any sport-related events. Please leave your thoughts in the comments area below!

A lawsuit has been filed against a teen charged in a fatal crash and her father, who is a state representative.
Alexa Crosby, 17, of Suffield, was killed in a crash on Interstate 91 in Enfield just after 2:30 a.m. on Aug. 25. Her family filed a suit on Monday against the driver, Amanda Conway, 18, and her father, State Rep. Matthew Conway, according to the law firm, Gold Orluk & Partners, in Avon.
Conway was charged with second-degree manslaughter with a motor vehicle and driving under the influence. Police said she lost control of the Jeep she was driving and crossed into the path of a tractor-trailer.
Conway was driving her father's car, according to the law firm.
"This is a terrible tragedy and the family is determined to find out exactly what happened and why," said attorney John Houlihan, of the law firm of RisCassi and Davis, who is representing the family.
The lawsuit claims that Amanda Conway was under the influence of drugs or alcohol, was speeding and failed to keep the car under control.
"This senseless loss of life from underage drinking and driving must stop. It is a problem of urgent importance," Houlihan said.
Crosby's family is asking for in excess of $15,000.

Von Hippel-Lindau disease is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation on the third chromosome. In healthy individuals, the chromosome has a Von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor, while individuals with the disorder are lacking this suppressor. As a result, clusters of largely benign tumors made from blood vessels appear in areas of the body which are rich in blood. There is no cure for Von Hippel-Lindau disease, but if it is caught early, the symptoms can be addressed and treated.
The disease is named for Eugen von Hippel and Arvid Lindau, scientists who observed the progressive growth of the tumors characteristic of the disease in the early 1900s. In the 1960s, the problem was more closely identified, and named Von Hippel-Lindau disease for the scientists who had laid the research ground work. Lindau was the first to identify the tumors of the central nervous system which appear in most patients, in the 1920s, and von Hippel identifed ocular tumors, which appear in approximately half of patients diagnosed, in 1904.
Tumors of the central nervous system called angioblastomas are the most common symptom of Von Hippel-Lindau disease. These tumors are usually benign, but if they are allowed to grow, they can put pressure on the brain and spinal cord, resulting in brain damage, headaches, dizziness, and difficulty walking. Around 60% of patients may get tumors on their kidneys and pancreas, and a smaller percentage experience retinal tumors, which can lead to blindness. 10-20% of patients experience tumors on their adrenal gland, which can cause behavioral problems, and approximately 10% of patients have been known to grow tumors in their ears.
The tumors are the distinguishing factor of Von Hippel-Lindau disease. The abnormal growth of blood vessels into tumors is called angiomatosis, and it makes the tumors difficult to treat because of the ample blood supply. Surgery is an option for some tumors, as is radiation. If identified early, the growth of the tumors may be able to be arrested, allowing the patient to live a relatively normal life. If caught late, or extremely aggressive, the tumors can ultimately kill the patient.
Approximately one in every 35,000 people has Von Hippel-Lindau disease, which is diagnosed by a doctor if one or more of the characteristic tumors appears in a patient. Onset of Von Hippel-Lindau disease varies; some patients manifest symptoms as early as 10, while others may live into their 30s or 40s before signs of the disease emerge. If someone is genetically predisposed because a parent has the disease, routine screening for Von Hippel-Lindau disease should be undertaken on a regular basis. In this way, early signs of the disease can be quickly caught and treated.
One of our editors will review your suggestion and make changes if warranted. Note that depending on the number of suggestions we receive, this can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Thank you for helping to improve wiseGEEK!

Food Intolerance is linked to an overproduction of enzymes in your gut to digest food. What often trigger food intolerances is an over-consumption of a particular type of food. The most common being lactose, gluten and egg. Unlike food allergies, the symptoms of intolerance can manifest themselves in a number of more discreet ways. Some people will have one persisting symptom such as a severe headache whilst others will be unfortunate to experience irritable bowel syndrome, digestive problems, migraine and skin or respiratory conditions. Realising that the food you eat is a catalyst for particular symptoms is not easy when, unlike the immediate reactive symptoms of food allergy, food intolerance symptoms often appear hours or even days later.
Upon eliminating certain foods from their diet, many sufferers have found that they have been experiencing minor symptoms because of intolerance for their entire lives. Untreated, food intolerances can develop in to chronic conditions that as a result could cause inflammation within the body, autoimmune disorders and even cancer.
The CNS FoodPrint® service uses a new, state of the art immunoassay based on micro-array technology to detect food-specific IgG antibodies.
Food Intolerance tests are available from Mango Fitness. – "FOOD PRINT" – 40, 60,120 or 200 Food Groups to choose from.
In order to complete a food intolerance test, please contact Mango Fitness directly for a consultation. You will then be given a blood test kit to complete and send to CNS laboratories. Mango Fitness will track your test and update you when the results will be ready. We will then interpret your results in a personal consultation suggesting any necessary changes to your diet.

Enes Kanter disowned by family, changes name to honor US-based cleric
Three weeks after a failed coup in Turkey, the effects have spilled into the world of basketball.
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Enes Kanter has been disowned by his parents due to his support of Pennsylvania-based cleric Fethullah Gulen -- believed to be involved in the coup -- who is currently in a feud with Turkey's president Tayyip Erdogan.
Kanter's father, Mehmet, who supports the Turkish government and Erdogan, issued a handwritten letter to the Turkish media distancing himself -- and the rest of the family -- from the NBA star.
"With a feeling of shame I apologize to our president and the Turkish people for having such a son," the letter said (via Reuters).
Kanter, 24, has pledged his allegiance to Gulen -- who has claimed his innocence -- in the past. He issued a statement via Twitter, which he signed Enes (Kanter) GULEN, to address his family's decision to sever ties with him.
"Today I lost those who for 24 years I called ... my family ... My own father wanted me to change my surname. The mother who gave birth to me rejected me," Kanter said.
"May God take every second of my life and give it to my brave Teacher... From now on my mother, father and siblings are (the)... devoted members of Hizmet."
Kanter was born in Zurich, Switzerland, before attending Stoneridge Preparatory School in Simi Valley, California. He was the seventh overall pick in the 2011 NBA Draft by the Utah Jazz. After spending three-and-a-half seasons in Utah, Kanter was traded to the Thunder during the 2014-15 season. Kanter has averaged 10.7 points and 6.7 rebounds per game in five seasonsNews Now - Sport News

Title: Second Hand (Tucker Springs #2)
Author: Marie Sexton, Heidi Cullinan
Buy link: Amazon.com (Second Edition)
Genre: Contemporary M/M
Length: Novel/177 PDF pages/50K words
Rating: 5+ stars out of 5, DIK
Review Summary: Awesome!
Paul Hannon moved to Tucker Springs for his girlfriend, but she's left him with a house he can't afford and a pantry full of useless gadgets. All Paul wants is to get back to normal, even if he's not sure what that is anymore. When he wanders into Tucker Pawn for a gift to win her back, he meets El Rozal, pawn shop owner and all-around cynic.
El Rozal doesn't do relationships, especially not with clueless straight boys still pining for their ex. El may make his living dealing in castoffs, but that doesn't apply to men. Still, when Paul starts clearing out his old life, pawning kitchen equipment he never wanted in the first place, El is drawn to Paul in spite of himself.
Paul and El have nothing in common except a past full of disappointments. There's no reason to believe the two of them could fit, but in El's line of work, one man's junk is another man's treasure. When it comes to love, El and Paul may learn that secondhand doesn't mean second best.
I absolutely adored Second Hand, a story about making choices, letting go of old fears, and learning to fly without a net. In a world of low expectations and always being second best, Paul "just wanted to be the first choice for someone for once, just once." This story is told from Paul's first person POV and Ed's third person POV and their voices and perspectives are so different, and yet so similar, it was like a melody played with different instruments that blended perfectly.
Paul's live-in girlfriend had dumped him 2 months ago, after six and a half years together, to move in with someone else but he couldn't seem to accept her decision and kept asking her to come back. His life had been a series of hard knocks so far and everything he did seemed to fall apart. He aspired to a career as a vet but he failed his exams, so instead he was working as a receptionist in a veterinary office; he was up to his ears in debt and it was a constant struggle to pay the bills every month; his credit cards were maxed out and he was struggling to pay off his student loans. In other words he was a failure in his personal and financial life. Meeting Ed added a huge complication to a plate already overburdened with issues he couldn't handle.
El was Paul's polar opposite in every way. He was both a philosopher and a cynic, as his business of being a pawn shop owner, trading in the remnants of other people's lives, exposed him every day to human frailties and failures. He had no expectations of anyone but had a heart of gold which made him a soft touch for his crazy family, especially his sister Rosa, the eternal optimist about men. Meeting Paul required that he make a massive shift in the paradigm of his life and recognize that just because someone was second hand didn't make them any less valuable. He was lonely but pretended he liked being alone, had no current boyfriend and couldn't remember the last time he had sex – (he had to check the expiry date on the condom the first time he had sex with Paul). 🙂 He didn't do relationships and he wasn't doing Paul; he wouldn't admit how he felt about him at first even though he would set up the most elaborate schemes just so he could see Paul every day.
When Paul's mother came to visit she made him realize that the feelings he had for males which he was trying to repress went way back, even before puberty, but he was afraid about not being "normal" (or what society considered normal). Then Stacey came along 7 years ago to "rescue" him from the life he really wanted, and his fears overcame his desires as he chose the easy way out by living with Stacey, even telling himself he loved her, but he still couldn't control his desire for the male of the species. It wasn't until he met El that he realized he had been bi all along but suppressed his sexual orientation through fear.
There is so much in this book that I can't talk about because that would spoil it for you, but one of the most wonderful aspects was the slow build-up of El's and Paul's love for each other – slow because although they knew they had a connection they were both afraid to explore it, which is why it was so delightful when their love bloomed. In the end Paul gave El confidence that what they had was real, while El cherished him and taught him about making choices in addition to living life without boundaries. Both MCs grew incredibly in this book as Paul learned that making the right choices would enrich his life, and he was able to let go of his fears. El was Mr. Cool until he fell for Paul and saw how barren his life would be if he let him go.
Part of the reason I love this book is also because of the secondary characters. El's best friend Denver was the typical alpha male: he was a bouncer at a gay bar, built like a brick shit house, and he poked fun at El and his feelings for "Strawberry Shortcake" as he called Paul. They bonded 🙂 while doing their laundry at the Tucker "Laund-O-Rama" while catching up on the week's events during the wash and spin cycle, and some of the best dialogue was between Denver and El. Denver amused himself at El's expense, especially about his love for Paul, a man who could get him to do anything, even adopt a stray dog. El walking around town with the dog in a baby sling was priceless! There were many facets to El's personality and one of them was his great love for his family especially his Abuela, and he was even tender toward his mother, the hoarder, who drove everyone crazy. Every character was multi dimensional even Stacey who was flawed and a user; she gave Paul what he persuaded himself he wanted at that time, a "normal" life. In the end they wanted different things.
This is a book you will inhale and read many times because you won't get the full impact once or twice. The writing was among the best I have read recently and Paul and El were such wonderfully crafted, complex characters that I'm sure you will revisit them often as you won't be able to get them out of your mind and heart.
As for the lovemaking, here is a quote from El:
"I want to lie in bed with you and listen to a rainstorm come in over the mountains. I want to find out what you have for breakfast…"
And from Paul:
"I just want to lick you all over."
If you read my reviews you probably know by now that even though I love a well plotted story, for me great characterizations trump the plot of a book. In Second Hand I got both as the characters rocked as well as the plot and the only element that was better was the love between Paul and El. While there was sex in this book and it was hot, it definitely did not drive the story as the love between the MCs was clearly the most important aspect of the plot.
I think I will end my review with this quote from Paul:
"All I want is to be with you Emanuel. You aren't my first choice or my second choice. You're my only choice."
I'm looking forward to the next book in the series by Heidi Cullinan called Dirty Laundry, which will be released next year.
Highly recommended.

Egypt's net international reserves surged at the end of January to record $17.105bn, up from $17.05bn in December, the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) said on Thursday. This marks the first rise in foreign reserves since last August.
Foreign reserves reached $18.916bn at the end of August, only to decline to $18.7bn in September followed by another descent in October, reaching $18.59bn. By the end of November, foreign reserves stood at $17.76bn.
Banking and economic expert Bassant Fahmy attributed the increase to the implementation of the first step of the political roadmap, adopted after the ouster of former President Mohamed Morsi from power in July, through ratifying the constitution.
Fahmy added that ratifying the constitution fueled positive market performance in January. "Banks' activities were also boosted as people returned their savings to the banks," she said.
Fahmy expects that the slight increase in foreign reserves will continue in the case that the country's political situation remains stable.
A total value of $4bn is expected to be sent to Egypt from Saudi Arabia in January, $2bn of which will be deposited in the CBE, state-run Al-Ahram reported on 30 January.
On 27 January, the central bank held its fourth exceptional auction to sell $1.5bn of its foreign reserves in an attempt to supply banks with cash needed for their clients' import needs.
In January, Egypt paid $700m to the Paris Club, a portion of its $1.4bn debt to the entity. The Paris Club is comprised of 19 developed economies and assists borrowing states in the repayment of their debts.
Egypt's foreign debt as of the end of October 2013 stood at $46.64bn, CBE governor Hisham Ramez stated in December.
Egypt's foreign currency reserves have been under pressure since the 2011 revolution. In March of last year, they dropped to $13.4bn, which was deemed at that time below the needed amount to cover the country's imports. On the eve of the revolution, CBE foreign reserves registered $36bn.
In July, Gulf countries pledged $12bn in aid to Egypt after the removal of former President Mohamed Morsi.

Watch this Tesla P85D Out-Accelerate a Ferrari 458
Seemingly forever, the Nissan GT-R has been the ultimate everyday supercar for its ability to trounce competitors in a straight line; bear in mind, those exotic competitors can cost over two to three times as much. But app developer and supercar aficionado Allen Wong is quickly proving that the GT-R is so old news – it's all about the all-electric 691 horsepower Tesla Model S P85D. Wong successfully out-sprinted a Ferrari 575M earlier this month, as well as his own 691-horsepower Lamborghini Aventador, and now it's time for the vaunted Ferrari 458 Italia. So Wong rang up the lead singer of ATTILA, enlisted his 570-horsepower 458, and the pair lined up at what is now becoming quite a memorable stretch of roadway. RELATED: Take a closer look at the incredible Tesla Model S
According to Wong, the quarter-mile stretch ends just after the highway overpass, which would mean that the mighty Tesla came away with a victory on two out of the three passes. Like his previous outing against the Aventador, the P85D absolutely leaps ahead of the Italian supercar, until late in the run when the torquey EV runs low on oomph and Ferrari's 4.5-liter V8 hits its stride. Wong confirms that the Ferrari was set to 'Race' mode, while the Tesla was dialed in to 'Insane'.
Wong famously bought the Tesla Model S P85D as a Christmas present for his mother, though considering all the racing he has gotten out of it, we wouldn't be surprised if he picked up another one for himself.

'And, just in case that did not persuade you, imagine how these parents feel.
Unvaccinated child from Florida becomes first death of the flu season
CBS News October 15, 2018, 12:53 PM
A child in Florida has become the first person to die of the flu this season, according to state health officials. State epidemiologists say the child had not been vaccinated and was otherwise healthy before getting sick with the flu.
The child, who tested positive for influenza B, died sometime during the week of Sept. 30, although privacy concerns prevent officials from saying exactly where, CBS affiliate WTSP reports.
Last flu season, 183 children in the U.S. died from flu or flu-related causes. That's the most since the CDC began keeping these records in 2004. Overall, an estimated 80,000 Americans died from flu last season.
CBS News medical contributor Dr. Tara Narula says this latest news should be a wake-up call to parents to get their children vaccinated.
"What this is a strong clear message to parents about the importance of vaccination," she told "CBS This Morning." "This vaccine is safe. It is the most effective tool we have. And we know of the pediatric deaths last year, 80 percent were in kids who were unvaccinated."
8 common myths about cold and flu debunked
A new survey suggests that many children may not be getting the potentially life-saving flu shot because of their parents' misconceptions about the safety and importance of vaccines.
The survey by Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital found:
More than half of parents think that their child can get the flu from the flu shot.
30 percent of parents feel flu vaccines are a conspiracy.
28 percent of parents believe flu vaccines can cause autism.
"None of these things are true. It's important that we deal with the science and the facts," Narula said.
The CDC recommends everyone age 6 months and older get vaccinated against the flu every year.
"Officials have said it's like wearing a seat belt," Narula said. "This is really a no-brainer for parents."

What is the Federal Emergency Management Agency? Simply put, it is the "secret government". This agency has powers and authority that go well beyond any other agency in the nation. What can FEMA do? It can suspend laws. It can move entire populations. It can arrest and detain citizens without a warrant and can hold them without a trial. It can seize property, food supplies, and transportation systems. And it can even suspend the Constitution of the United States.
When the first concept had been presented, its original mission was to assure the survivability of the United States Government in the event of a nuclear attack. It's secondary function was to be a Federal coordinating body during times of domestic disasters. These disasters consisted of earthquakes, floods, and hurricanes.
The "secret" black helicopters that are reported throughout the US, mainly in the West California, Washington, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, and Colorado areas are flown by FEMA personnel. It has been given the responsibility for many new national disasters such as forest fires, home heating emergencies, refugee situations, riots, and emergency planning for nuclear and toxic incidents. It works together with the Sixth Army in the West.
A series of Executive Orders (EO) was used to create FEMA. It does not matter whether an EO is Constitutional or not, it becomes a law simply by being published in the Federal Registry. These orders go around Congress.

Vernor Surfboard's revolutionary I-Beam Suspension.
The large black "V" in the tail section above is the carbon fiber cloth used in the construction the revolutionary Vernor I-beam Suspension system. It is not a Vernor Surfboards logo as you will learn below.
the concept: less twist = more drive
A typical surfboard undergoes tortional twist, which wastes energy and drive. By taking out the torsional twist the I-beam Suspension creates more drive and, therefore a 30% faster board.
the details: I-Beam Suspension construction
- I-Beam Suspension is made in the board with a carbon-fiber bar and carbon fiber cloth outer wrap. This creates the distintive black "V" you see on all Vernor I-Beam Suspension Surfboards and Wake Surfboards.
- I-Beam connects the stringer to fin boxes and extends out to the rails
- Vector double foil fins maximize the effect
- Less torsional twist = better control
Vernor Surfboards has been making I-Beam Suspension surfboards since April 2003.
finshing touches: vector fins make it even faster, even more responive
Another important piece to the Vernor Surfboards suspension system is the Vector double-foil fin design by Futures Fins for both side fins. This amazing new fin design generates more torque and acceleration – you can feel it on your first turn.

Jermain Defoe's time in Major League Soccer lasted less than a year with Toronto FC but the English forward believes Steven Gerrard will love his time in the United States when he moves to the LA Galaxy in the summer.
Defoe returned to the Premier League with Sunderland last week in a deal that saw Jozy Altidore join Toronto and the 32-year-old forward has been speaking about Gerrard and his upcoming move to MLS.Embed from Getty Images
"He's gonna be in LA. I played against them not too long ago [with Toronto FC] and I spoke to Robbie Keane and he loves it there," Defoe told Sky Sports.
"They've got a good team and won it [the MLS Cup] last season so I'm sure he will enjoy it. Maybe he's had a conversation with David Beckham, who was there for many years, and he loved it too."
Gerrard has been at Liverpool for his entire career and joined the club as a seven year old back in 1987 so playing for another team will be a major challenge for the Anfield legend.
Defoe thinks that a move to another Premier League club would have been too difficult for Gerrard and expects the 34-year-old midfielder to love his new life in Los Angeles when he moves to America in July.Embed from Getty Images
"When you look at Steven Gerrard's situation where he's been at Liverpool for so many years, what he's done for that club, maybe he just feels that it's the right time to move on and move to a different league, a different country.
"I'm sure it would have been a lot harder if he'd have moved to another Premier League team and played against Liverpool. So to go to MLS will be a different ball game and I'm sure he will enjoy it."
How big a signing is Steven Gerrard for LA Galaxy and MLS?

Mr Alboh is Alberto Mussi, a film score composer, singer-songwriter and actor based in Milan, Munich and Berlin.
Years ago he quitted his job in a bank to pursue his music career. Following this way of life he lived and played all around Europe: France, Italy, Germany…busking for countless days, opening acts for artist such as Ida Gard (supporting Bob Dylan, I-Tunes charts Top 10), and playing in cafes, clubs and theaters. Inspired by this experience he released his debut album, called "Handmade", a blend of freak-folk and blues, which sold over thousands of copies and got positive reviews. "Rivers and perfumed heathland awakened his folk-soul spirit" by CTRL magazine.
Little by little increasing numbers of listeners started to follow him and support his career, this lead him to play at several international festivals, such as the "MEI Festival", "Home Festival", "Ferrara Buskers Festival","A Night like This Festival", "Utcazene Festival" "Kulturufer festival" and playing in some amazing venues, for instance, the "Palalottomatica" (7000people) in Rome,"Pala Geox", "Milla" in Munich and "Le Scimmie" in Milan, Filodrammatici Theater.

In November 2014 he has produced his second album "Before The Moon Touches The Ground", home recorded with a symphony of small instruments and acoustic guitars. This album is the message that he brings around the world: "Our time is limited, we must be courageous and pursue our passions". Those who like artists such as Ben Howard, Passenger and Damien Rice will love Mr Alboh.
In 2015 he took part at the TV program X Factor, reaching the bootcamp (the last 24 people per group on 68.000 applicants)
Recently he stared a new theatrical project "A Journey with Mr Alboh" which sold out the Filodrammatici Theatre, a blend of music, storytelling, dance and visual art, a show that makes you smile and think on the meaning of dreams.
Right now he just released his new album "Black and White" and he'on a European Tour to present it: Milan, Prague, Berlin, Copenaghen, Amsterdam, Florence,Zurich and so on, check out on "Live" for his upcoming shows.
Moreover for each album he got songs featured in movie and tv productions. For instance he won a competition with artists such as Cat Stevens and signed for the soundtrack of the movie "Ostfriesisch für Anfänger" out in Germany, Swiss and Austria.

Ok, I'm back from teaching at Starkville this weekend. I think we all had fun - I know I had a blast. Over the next several posts I figure to review some of the stuff we worked on, including:
- Ping, roll the ball, and brushoff as a way out of an awkward position
- Contact improv as a way to introduce randori
- Sidestep at the end of the line
- "Stay off me" hands - also known as ki hands
- Metsuke laser vision
- Aikido as a pure force avoidance art
- Variations in walking tempo
- Ways to slow uke down to a manageable pace
- The judo groundwork cycle
Y'all that were there, which of these things did y'all get the most out of? What do y'all think you need some more explanation on?

MANILA — Former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo of the Philippines pleaded not guilty on Thursday to a charge that she ordered a local official to tamper with the results of congressional elections in 2007.
Surrounded by dozens of police officers yelling "Move! Move! Move!" at a crush of reporters, the ailing former president wore a neck brace and walked gingerly into the Manila court room to face a charge that carries a maximum sentence of life in prison.
"Not guilty," the former president said after her lawyers waived a full reading of the charge.
In November, the government blocked Mrs. Arroyo from leaving the country on suspicion that she was trying to flee looming charges of corruption and election fraud. Days later, on Nov. 18, she was arrested at a private hospital where she was being treated for a bone ailment.
The accusations against Mrs. Arroyo are straightforward, said James Jimenez, a spokesman with the Commission on Elections. Prosecutors allege that she ordered Datu Andal S. Ampatuan, the governor of the province of Maguindanao, to manipulate the election results in his area to assure the victory of the 12 senatorial election candidates in her political party.
"It should be 12-0 in Maguindanao, even if you need to fix or change the result," Mrs. Arroyo told the governor, according to an affidavit filed by prosecutors in October.
The affidavit includes the testimony of Norie K. Unas, an assistant to the Maguindanao governor who claims to have heard Mrs. Arroyo give the direct order during a meeting at Malacanang, the presidential palace, a few days before the May 14, 2007, elections.Continue reading the main story
Mr. Unas, who has requested to be placed in the country's witness-protection program, is the key to the case against Mrs. Arroyo. After the alleged order from the president, Mr. Unas stated that the governor gathered the mayors in his province and told them of Mrs. Arroyo's order. "Do not embarrass me with the president!" he allegedly told the mayors.
Mr. Jimenez of the election commission said Maguindanao is a populous province. If the results were manipulated in order to favor administration candidates, it could have an outcome on the national election.
"If they won this province, they could sway the whole election nationwide," he said. Candidates aligned with Mrs. Arroyo dominated the Maguindanao polls but faired poorly in the national results.
The prosecution of Mrs. Arroyo, who served as president from 2001 to 2010, is an important aspect of the anticorruption campaign of President Benigno S. Aquino III. Mr. Aquino has also supported the continuing impeachment proceedings of the chief justice of the Philippines, Renato C. Corona, who was a close ally of Mrs. Arroyo.
Supporters of Mr. Aquino note that if Mr. Corona is not impeached, he could potentially derail cases against Mrs. Arroyo that reach the Supreme Court. Mr. Corona, who served in senior positions in Mrs. Arroyo's administration, is vigorously defending himself through his lawyer in the trial in the Philippine Senate.
Mrs. Arroyo is also charged in a separate court with corruption related to a $329 million government telecommunications and Internet deal. She has denied any wrongdoing in the case. Prosecutors say several other charges are also being prepared.Continue reading the main story
