More than three decades after Azaria Chamberlain disappeared from Central Australia, a new inquest has been announced to finally try to discover what happened.
The baby girl's father, Michael Chamberlain, says the news is a milestone and he's pleasantly surprised.
"I'm sure this time it will be the ultimate verdict which we've been looking for," Dr Chamberlain told ABC Radio on Sunday.
The inquest will look at new evidence suggesting a dingo attacked Azaria.
The Northern Territory government has confirmed Coroner Elizabeth Morris will conduct the inquest, which will start on February 24 and represents the final legal chapter in the case.
Azaria was nine weeks-old when she disappeared from her parents' tent at Uluru (Ayers Rock) in August 1980, sparking court cases that saw her mother Lindy Chamberlain sentenced to life in jail in 1982.
Mr Chamberlain was given a suspended sentence after being found guilty of being an accessory after the fact.
The couple were both exonerated by a royal commission in 1987 and subsequently had their convictions quashed, although an inquest in 1995 delivered an open finding.
Mrs Chamberlain, now Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton after remarrying, has always maintained that she saw a dingo leaving her tent on the night Azaria went missing.
The claims were greeted sceptically by many Australians at the time of the disappearance and the saga was captured in the movie Evil Angels.
In a short statement on Sunday the NT Coroner's office said it was reopening the inquest into Azaria's death after information provided by the girl's parents in relation to dingo attacks on infants and young children.
"This information was then further investigated by a coronial investigator," the statement said.
"It is as a result of this investigation that the coroner has made the decision to reopen the inquest," it said.

Take Gaga Out Tonight (One Song on the Edge of Glory)
2 comments:
- AnonymousJune 28, 2011 at 1:07 AM
Thanks for your analysis. There are two things you said that stood out to me in particular. You said, "we are, after all, always on the edge of glory and "hanging on a moment," suggesting that our achievement of glory will be perpetually deferred" followed by, "my sense is that we're on the edge of something interesting." These quotes stood out to me because I've been wondering since the beginning of the Born This Way era what exactly Gaga has up her sleeve.ReplyDelete
She seems intent on toying with our expectations far more than ever before, even to the point of intentionally confusing and frustrating many of most devoted fans. There was the second BTW video that was announced but never came, the artwork for Judas and the new album that both came across as intentionally amateur, and now the teased mermaid-themed Edge of Glory video that was scrapped in favor of the video discussed above.
Was the second BTW video scrapped due to time constraints or some other practical problem, or could it be that she never intended to make a second video? Was she really "quite certain" everyone would love the artwork for the album as she says, or did she want people to scratch their heads? When she promised her fans "the album of the decade," did she mean it, or was she trying to set herself up for a backlash? As for Edge of Glory, it would appear that Gaga did in fact hire Joseph Kahn to direct a mermaid-themed video and even did a full day of shooting for the video. However, I can't help but wonder if Gaga had planned all along to "change her mind" about the video at the last minute and make a different one?
This begs the question: Why? One could argue that Gaga wants to temper expectations in order to give her some more creative breathing room (i.e. not feeling like she needs to keep topping herself.) However, this video and your analysis of it makes me wonder if all of these supposed mishaps and changes of plans are part of a greater performance art piece that we don't yet understand.
She did at one point say that she wanted the performance art aspect of her BTW promotion to unfold slowly and make more sense as more and more pieces of the puzzle were revealed, and she has a track record of doing things that seem nonsensical or foolish at first but make sense in hindsight. I remember when she went from wearing sexy leotards to wearing neck braces and muppets and people thought "What the hell is she thinking?" Of course, everyone looks back on that transition now and sees it as both a clever marketing ploy and a performance piece. I also remember hearing how Gaga had "jumped the shark" when her video for Telephone came out, but within months people were calling it a quintessential Gaga video.
So, what am I getting at? Well, I'm not entirely sure. I have a strong suspicion that all of her biggest supposed "missteps" during her current era have been completely intentional and have worked out just as she had hoped and expected them to. Beyond that, I really don't know but I do think she's given us a handful of pieces to the puzzle already. The four most obvious pieces are her three BTW-era music videos and the album itself. Two other notable pieces come in the form of things she has said. There was her announcement of an impending "cultural baptism" before the release of her video for Judas and her statement that she has to "make the music industry bleed to remind it that it's human."
(Please forgive the horrendous grammar. I'm extremely tired and am writing this as a sort of stream of consciousness before going to bed. Thanks again for your analysis.)
Dear Anonymous. Thank you for the above. I'm a die hard little monster and was actually shocked to find TEOG very boring when it aired on So You Think You Can Dance as I was expecting mermaids, surgeons, militia, an over the top video, and then was really let down by this video, which I do find rather bad, regardless of Stigmata's analysis. So perhaps she's making missteps (bad BTW album cover, TEOG) and frankly, her BTW videos are not nearly as brilliant as her fame and fame monster era videos, to keep things more grounded, to "make the music industry bleed to remind it that it's human".ReplyDelete
For instance, it's impossible to keep topping yourself and by releasing videos that really aren't up to her standards,to be honest, then out of the ashes, arise the phoenix and hopefully she'll come out with a spectacular video that will be even more striking in juxtaposition to the let downs of her BTW videos. For instance, Gaga is continuously criticized for "trying too hard" so she is proving the critics wrong with TEOG, and then will blow them away with the next video of her single?
At least that's what I'm hoping. After all, her live performances are still superlative and ground breaking especially the MTV Japan Aid performances, I was awestruck.

Are you aware that some substances containing a particular poisonous matter which you use daily might put your lives in grave danger? It could be hard for you to believe that your house could be a home for life threatening particles too. These particles or matter are none other than ghastly asbestos. It is that material which was once prevalently used as fibers and fabrics in construction works without paying heed to its disastrous eventual repercussions. Asbestos survey Perth reveals that still there are umpteen houses which contain constructions made of asbestos. This is a grave problem and steps are needed to be taken on an urgent basis.
Number of people complaining of asbestos in their surroundings is on an upsurge. Such particles, if not removed with precaution, might turn your life into a nightmare. These hair like particles, produced on breakage of an asbestos containing material can enter into your body through inhalation and you might suffer from lethal ailments like; Pleural Plaque, Asbestosis, Lung cancer and excessive restlessness in breathing. If you have the knowledge and prior experience of removing asbestos, then only it is advisable to do so. But how will you get to know whether your house contains asbestos?
There are many organizations which have devices that detect presence of such hazardous material in your surroundings. It is strongly recommended that such removal and testing must be carried out by professionals and not by you. They offer expert and integrated solutions regarding surveys, testing, removal and disposal of asbestos. Land contamination is an issue that does not just deteriorate environment but impedes land investing activities. Thus, it is of utmost importance that land contamination is an issue that needs immediate redressing. With increase in technologies and machine usage, workforce is exposed to effluents of biological and chemical nature that might prove dangerous to them. We need occupational & hygiene surveys and services like noise measurement in Perth that help our surroundings to be pollution free.

Now, I'm not saying that we live in a rough neighborhood, but last night, across the street from our house, I heard a nine-year-old accuse a seven-year-old of jacking his lighter. A few nights ago, Rich and I set out for a walk, only to see, about a block ahead of us, a car veer wildly off the road and onto a strip of grass bordering a school playground, where it ran over two small trees, crashed into a concrete wall, backed up, and continued driving. To our amazement, no cop cars followed in hot pursuit. About a month ago, a house down the street from us was firebombed (or so I heard). The night after we moved in, we were woken at 3 a.m. by a bang bang bang at the door.
I peeked out the peephole. It was a cop.
Of course it was a cop.
As the only member of the household who is fully clothed at all times, it fell on me to answer the door. When I did, the cop asked me if I am Jaleel Christ's mother.
No, no. I am not.
Well, the cop said. He says that he lives here.
I start to feel anxious. We've only been here for a little more than 24 hours. It's possible that he does live here. Maybe. Or used to. Or had some kind of deal worked out with the former tenants. Or will come back to the house after he gets out of jail and kill us if I don't cover for him.
Anyway, I say to the cop, it's funny because my last name is Christ.
Oh, he says. Do I have a nephew, cousin, or brother named Jaleel?
No, no. It's just funny. The coincidence.
Thing is, even with the firebombs, out-of-control drivers, lighter-jacking youths and all, I like the new place so much better than our old house. It feels comfortable. It has a garden in the front, with a couple of tiny variegated willows, some rose bushes, and what must be (I've by now forgotten) white asters. The side garden is all tigridia and sunflowers, or will be, someday, once it gets over its peaked, awkward green stage. In the back yard is a lovely planter box that Rich built, housing several soft heads of lettuce, already ready to be plucked and made into salad, cilantro, corn, onion, squash, bell pepper, lavender, thyme, Thai basil, rosemary, and at least a few other herbs that I'm forgetting. The herbs are doing fine, but the cilantro, corn, and onions are experiencing magic-bean-style growth. Last year we practiced gardening in a 2' by 5' hole in the deck, but this year's efforts feel much more gratifying.
Oh, and the new fothergilla in the back yard. And the clumping bamboo to screen off the neighbor's abused, barking dog-in-a-cage. (Who I feel sorry for, but do not want available for the thug dogs to mock every day.)
Here is a tigridia. Just in case you hadn't heard of tigridia. Ours look more like a series of green sticks in the ground. Hey, is anyone else bored? I don't have that much to say about tigridia, as it turns out.
I know I'm overstating when I say that, in my mind, our patch of rented ground is like a verdant study in abundance. But it kind of is. I tuck a seed into the ground, and days later a hearty stalk emerges from the soil, topped with four waxy, perfect leaves. It's a symbol for self-sufficiency, a stand-in for motherhood and fertility and all that shit. I create. I destroy.
Summer is great for that kind of thing, in fact. Unlike spring, which is all growth, and winter, which is all slow death, summer—this summer, anyway—is a fervid mulchbin of change and expectation.
And the house is a part of that. The neighborhood, too. The neighbors across the street throw parties nearly every weekend, playing banda music past dark. Kids gather on the corner after school, taking turns riding a tiny motorized bicycle around the block. People yell at me as I'm walking the thugs. Twice, accusingly: "I hope you have a bag!" (I considered following said yellers around to scream at appropriate times, "Better not run anyone over!" and "Hope you don't beat your kids tonight!") Once, after watching Goofus brazenly pee on a bush near the sidewalk that cuts through his lawn: "Unfuckingbelievable." And once—this week, in fact: "How are those thugs doing?"
It's starting to feel more like home, anyway. And I'm looking forward to seeing what's next, what's on the horizon. As long as it's not a car careening through the bushes, toward me. Or my long-lost son, Jaleel. Oh, he'll be so pissed.
Other items of note follow.
Summer Jamz 2009!
My new favorite song for this evening is Samamidon's fine cover of Tears for Fears' Janovian expression "Head Over Heels." Yes, this song was released in 2007. Aunty Christ is hopelessly behind the times. Yes, Samamidon appears to be in the same vein as LCD Soundsystem, which Aunty Christ is a little embarrassed to admit she also likes. It appears that Aunty Christ kind of misses hearing Kermit the Frog sing. Yes, although Tears for Fears songs are all really fucking wonderful, it seems that as covered by a whisper-folk singer, they are even better.
Summer Readz 2009!
Oh, not that Aunty Christ loves all her children isn't the best blog available to a person in this current age of wonder. No, that is not what I'm saying. But I did want to point out that Hobolawstudent has a pretty fine blog of her own. It is as if I met this blog at a bar and slipped it my number and now I can't wait to see it again. I hope the blog calls me. I think I actually might love the blog.
It is: wonderful writing mixed with a fair smattering of layperson-friendly law analysis. I haven't read that far back, but tonight my favorite post is this one. For anyone who wonders why we can't just leave the detainees in Guantanamo forever, anyone who thinks we were right to put them there in the first place, anyone who makes fun of waterboarding or supports torture in any form or for any reason, or anyone who thinks all of the preceding is ignorant bullshit, it's well worth the read. The rest of you should read it too. Damn, it's a nice, very sad post.
Summer Stampz 2009!
Aunty Christ is now a notary public. Travel fees apply.

All keystrokes in my UWP 10 game are delayed by mouse input. It has two effects:
1) When holding any key, the input continues after I physically release. This ends when I stop moving the mouse around quickly.
2) When I press a key, while moving the mouse around quickly, the input is not received until I stop moving the mouse around.
This is event that is firing late.
window.KeyDown += CoreWindow_KeyDown;
What's the cause? How can get instant keyboard state?
For a normal windows game, I use something like
Keystate currentState = keyboard.getstate();
If (currentstate.iskeydown(keys.F){//FIRE!!!}
That's backed by
List _keys;
Which is populated by:
Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Input.Keyboard.SetKeys(List keys)
And the incoming value keys comes the events in InputEvent.cs, where the events are firing late.
Sounds like maybe only 1 event is consumed each frame... Can you open an issue on GitHub @MuletTheGreat?
If you are working from source try this patch:
Optionally, apply this one too that removes the slow lock() on every input event.
Note that CoreIndependentInputSource was broken from day one on tablets/Touch and I still don't use it on published games because it kills GPU performance. If you have some time please vote on uservoice to get it fixed.https://wpdev.uservoice.com/forums/110705-universal-windows-platform/suggestions/16521550-fix-coreindependentinputsource
I've opened an issue.
If I attach to either the CoreWindow OR the CoreIndependentInputSource, the issue persists.
If I change WorkItemOptions from TimeSliced to none, the issue is not as bad (although bad enough to prevent shipping)
It seems we need a way to get background input, like with the CoreIndependentInputSource. Perhaps marshalling out to the actual device, bypassing the UWP Routed window events?
Can you comment out the line TouchQueue.ProcessQueued();from https://github.com/MonoGame/MonoGame/blob/7c3d6870a38f8a5e479e64d935d692f2610e1cda/MonoGame.Framework/WindowsUniversal/UAPGamePlatform.cs#L153?Or better yet, use a Stopwatch to measure how much time the main thread is spending in it.
I commented it out, and the bug still happens. Here's some samples of my timing:
Touch Queue : 0.0012Touch Queue : 0.0012Touch Queue : 0.0015Touch Queue : 0.0015Touch Queue : 0.0021Touch Queue : 0.0021Touch Queue : 0.0012Touch Queue : 0.0012Touch Queue : 0.0012Touch Queue : 0.0024Touch Queue : 0.0021Touch Queue : 0.0009Touch Queue : 0.0021Touch Queue : 0.0012Touch Queue : 0.0024Touch Queue : 0.0012Touch Queue : 0.0015
I just threw this into Debug.Writeline, in BeforeUpdate(). It's in milliseconds.
My naïve stopwatch and writeline made the input issue much worse, if that's helpful to know.
That's strange. If you have your mouse events to CoreIndependentInputSource and TouchQueue.ProcessQueued() doesn't slow the main thread significantly, then I don't know why still keyboard events are queue up. (maybe a bug with latest Win10?)
Can you post a test project somewhere that demonstrates the problem?Also try one last thing. turn of V-Sync and fixedTimestep to see if that helps to keep the message queue empty. Put those lines in your Game1() constructor.
this.IsFixedTimeStep = false;
this.graphics.SynchronizeWithVerticalRetrace = false;
Here's another approach to to solve the issue.I manage to lower the priority of Tick event which makes the game process all other events (input/rotation/etc) before drawing the next frame.
I know this may sound strange but if you have a extra keyboard plug it in and try it and see if the issue disappears! Just to make sure this isn't a specific hardware thing.
When xna was around i found the many joys of getting hours of headaches trying to solve something that turned out to be a individual keyboard hardware quirk.
@willmotil I can reproduce the bug. Others reported similar problems.
I think that CompositionTarget.Rendering has a higher priority than input on the latest W10.On W8.1 projects works alright with mouse+keyboard, but CompositionTarget.Rendering has other issues there, especial on mobile phones, with touch lag, rotation lag and even the event stop firing and freeze the game when under heavy load.

Israeli jet painted pink for breast cancer awareness, slated for denying Gaza medical treatment

Referred to as "pinkwashing" by many who criticize Israel's actions against Palestinians, some Twitter users didn't hold back, stating that Israel could "bomb Palestinian women with planes you paint pink for breast cancer awareness."

According to Israeli human rights group B'Tselem, Tel Aviv's decades long blockade of Gaza has had a crippling impact on the densely populated strip's health infrastructure.
The group claims a lack of medical equipment, fuel supplies and permit requirements to receive treatment inside Israel has led to many cancer patients dying in Gaza over the years.

Paris, France – Theatrical, creative and internationally admired… Bowie Wong once again knows how to live up to his name with his Spring/Summer 2016 Haute Couture Collection. The Japanese designer launched his Couture brand in 2010, which caused a lot of attention during the Australian Fashion Week. Ever since that moment, he has been travelling the world, discovering new techniques and dressing celebrities such as Beyoncé and Kylie Minogue. This is Wong's third year showing his couture collection in Paris. And it was quite a show indeed!
The collection "123ABC" is based on creative reinterpretations of the Japanese school uniforms. There are many collars, skater skirts, headbands, ribbons, pleated skirts and vertical lines spotted on the runway. Interesting about this collection, however, is the fact that all of the outfits are dramatized into over the top looks, which remind us of dolls or manga figures such as Sailor Moon.
Many of the designs have large circle shapes integrated in the sleeves or the skirts. And there are lots of asymmetrical stuffed shapes attached to the clothes in order to create more volume. Also notable is the use of many wide transparent materials which create volume, yet still leaving a natural lines of the body. This is a perfect tactic to create a dramatic effect without losing the girly and feminine atmosphere.
The theme of the "123ABC" collection is emphasized by the hair and make-up of the models, which is very doll-like. Also the classic school shoes with calves' high socks and the accessories – such as ABC & 123 necklaces and headbands – contribute to the overall scholar experience. Bowie Wong manages to impress us with an extreme, cohesive, and mostly fun collection. We can't wait to see what will be his next project!

Hazel-E says she has proof "Love & Hip Hop Hollywood" only dumped her because of her homophobic social media post — despite producers claiming she was fired beforehand.
Sources connected to Hazel-E tell TMZ … she got a letter delivered by FedEx on Saturday, informing her the show wasn't picking up an option on her contract. The letter was sent on Friday, October 20 — that's 16 days AFTER producers say they decided to drop her.
The letter was sent one day after her homophobic comment — saying all gays should burn in hell — earned her swift Internet backlash. We're told Hazel thinks the timing makes it obvious she was only cut due to the Instagram post.
We contacted 'L&HH' producers about Hazel's letter, and they're standing by their initial statement — they decided to can Hazel on Oct. 4. Point, blank, period.
Our Hazel sources say she's wondering what took them so long to make it official? Bottom line — she's pissed off about the firing. We're told she's hired a lawyer and is strongly considering a lawsuit.

HomeStars $500 Contest Winner Announced!
If you follow us on Twitter, then you saw that back in October we partnered with Vancouver Is Awesome to give one lucky person $500 towards a home project of their choice. $500 can go a long way, especially when you consider some of our smaller project categories like appliance repair and carpet cleaning. Think how much silverware you could have polished with that amount of money!
The lucky winner (who was chosen at random) was Natalie. She wanted to freshen up her home with a new paint job in her bedroom and living room. Natalie had a dark brown feature wall in her living room that she wanted to have painted a nice grey and her bedroom, which was green, painted a neutral colour. Take a look at the before pictures.
HomeStars connected Natalie with ProRise Painting and Restoration, a Vancouver-based company specializing in painting and drywall restoration. ProRise was quick to respond and up to the task of giving Natalie's rooms a colour make-over. Kensington Paint & Decorating provided the Aura Benjamin Moore paint to give Natalie the colours of her choice. ProRise was able to get started right away and painted Natalie's rooms in one day. They even had time for a photo op!
HomeStars' aim is to connect you with the right home professional for your project. It looks like Natalie and ProRise were a great match, just look at the finished job!
HomeStars would like to thank everyone who entered. Special thanks to ProRise for their work and Natalie for being a great contest winner. Congratulations to both!
Would YOU like to win a similar contest to have work done in your home? Reach out to us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or good old fashioned email and let us know where you are and what you want to win. Who knows, you might be our next winner!

Annual column for Shetland Life
It's January - that means it's time for my annual column in Shetland Life.
It was great to be 'hame' in Shetland in May. It's the first time I've been in the islands since 2011. Then it was February, the days were short and the weather coorse. In May it was warm and as the clouds broke the blue North Atlantic light revealed the many and varied beauties that Shetland can offer. I and my colleague from the Scots Language Centre were in Shetland for three days. We had a packed schedule. We met volunteers from Shetland ForWirds at the Shetland Museum, attended a meeting of the campaign group in Lerwick and enjoyed a dialect concert at the Garrison Theatre. One of the highlights of our trip was a visit to Voe where we saw Bruce Eunson give a dialect lesson to pupils in the primary school there. Interestingly many of the pupils were not local but that didn't stop them from engaging with the dialect, speaking it and writing in it. A new initiative by the Scottish government to appoint Scots language co-ordinators in schools should enable the excellent work carried out by Bruce to be extended to the rest of Scotland.
The Shetland dialect is alive and well, that much is certain. There's nowhere in Shetland that you don't hear it – or for that matter, read it. It's in shop names, house names, signs and even in the lavvies at Sumburgh airport due to the success of the Bards in the Bog initiative which I'm pleased to hear is being revived this year. The visibility of Shetland dialect in what experts call the 'linguistic landscape' is evidence of the vitality of the dialect because in order for shop signs and so forth to be effective you need to be certain that people seeing them can understand what they say. When a sign in a shop declares, 'Haein a foy, hing oot da bunting.' you need be sure that potential customers can understand what's being said.
The prevalence of dialect in the linguistic landscape confirms the data that was released in September about the responses given in the 2011 census. It indicates that there exists in Shetland a large and active community of speakers. The census results show that Shetland has the highest proportion of 'Scots' speakers of any local authority in the country. Moray, Orkney and Aberdeenshire were the communities with the next largest percentages of speakers. None of this is unexpected of course. After all these are the communities where we would expect to find large numbers of Scots speakers (in the case of Shetland this means Shetland dialect speakers and Scots speakers who have moved there from other parts of the country). So it was disappointing that the National Records for Scotland undermined their own professional reputation by pretending that the census results were not credible. The opportunity to develop policy on the basis of detailed information is now at risk because NRS has attempted to hide the data and call into question the validity of the statistics. It's not as if the NRS position represents a novel view, mind. Scots speakers have been told for centuries that their language doesn't exist. We can only hope NRS takes on board the criticisms of academics and language experts because to miss out on using this data purposefully and for the benefit of Scots language communities would be unfortunate and a misuse of unique and exciting statistics.
This year Shetland ForWirds is organising a Year of Shetland Dialect to celebrate the widespread use of the speech form in the islands. The census and the visibility of dialect in the linguistic landscape tell us how prevalent it is. That's what the Year of Dialect is intended to mark, the everyday use of the language all over Shetland. There will be more information about events on the Shetland ForWirds web site. Shetland ForWirds celebrates its tenth anniversary this year. The volunteers who have given time and energy over the years to the cause of encouraging the dialect have made a huge contribution to the culture of Shetland. It's great to be celebrating their successes this year.
Of course 2014 is a historic year not only because Shetland ForWirds is ten years old. In September voters in Shetland will take part in the Referendum on independence. Culture and language won't be at the top of the politicians' agendas but that doesn't mean we shouldn't make a case for support for linguistic diversity. Any new constitutional settlement must make provision for linguistic minorities and communities remote from the main centres of population. At the time of writing the Scottish government has set out its plans in November's White Paper. Would an independent state starting from scratch give us the chance to accord language a more secure position? What do the anti-independence parties have to say on the subject and will their plans stand up to scrutiny? Let's hope we hear more over the next nine months. History beckons, this is a year none of us will forget.

Smashwords stepped up their game this week with two major distribution announcements. On Monday Mark Coker kicked off with news that Smashwords are now officially distributing to the Berlin-based ebook retailer 'txtr.
On Tuesday Coker announced a partnership with OverDrive to get indie titles into digital libraries.
EBUK regulars won't be surprised by the news, as we've reported on both several times over the past months.
At this stage it appears the OverDrive deal is only for library distribution and will not involve OverDrive's retail partners like Waterstone's, so there's still good reason to check out the British aggregator Ebook Partnership, which does get you into Waterstone's, and also a host of other outlets currently not on Smashwords' radar. Not least Google Play.
How long before Smashwords adds Google Play to its growing list? Coker's not saying, but no question Smashwords are, at long last, embracing the opportunities presented by the blossoming global ebook markets.
This will be an interesting year for Smashwords. But Mark Coker, if you're reading this, what would really impress us would be deals with Google Play, Copia, Gardners and Ingram, and targetting the European markets (esp. Germany and the Tolino stores), Latin America (esp. BajalLibros) and the Far East (esp. Indonesia's Scoop and Thailand's Ookbee).
The deal with 'txtr (no, no capital, no vowels, and the apostrophe is compulsory) is an exciting development that will bring rewards to those indies willing to step outside the Only Amazon Matters mindset and actually try PROMOTING the 'txtr stores.
Did we say stores, plural? Believe it! 'Txtr have dedicated ebook stores (local languages and currencies) in, wait for it, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland, UK, and USA. Plus an International store selling in euros to the world.
The list is worth looking at closely. Amazon forces Belgian readers to buy from Amazon France, expects Austrians to buy from Amazon Germany, only lets Swiss readers uy from France or Germany in a foreign currency, gives the Irish the choice to buy from Amazon UK or Amazon US – both in a foreign currency – and expects New Zealanders to buy from Amazon Australia or Amazon US – both in a foreign currency.
'Txtr understands that the Swiss use Swiss francs, not euros, the Irish spend euros not pounds, New Zealanders like to pay in NZ dollars not AU dollars and South Africans flash the cash in rands, not US dollars.
As for readers in Denmark, Poland, Hungary, Netherlands, etc… Amazon not only expects them to pay in a foreign currency – US dollars – but charges them a $2-$4 surcharge on top of the list price and on top of the currency exchange fees they'll be hit with. Amazon even imposes the surcharge on your free ebooks. And no, you won't see a cent of it.
Google Play does serve these countries too – and yes, Google Play too manages a dedicated store and local currencies – but few indies are with Google Play (you can go direct or via Ebook Partnership) so for most authors the Smashwords-'txtr will be the first serious opportunity to build a non-Apple readership in places like the Netherlands, Denmark and Poland. Don't waste it!
And for those wondering if anyone there understands enough English to make it worthwhile, there are 15 million English-speakers in Netherlands, 12 million in Poland and 4 million in Denmark.
Smashwords authors were told they see their titles appearing in the 'txtr stores at the end of this week, but in fact some titles are already showing. Many have serious pricing errors like $2.99 titles showing at $6.99. If that's happening with you, email Mark Coker and give them time. Teething problems are to be expected. We've had confirmation from indies in 'txtr stores via other routes that 'txtr pricing is usually very reliable.
Spend some time now getting familiar with the 'txtr stores so when your titles do go live you can hit the ground running and let readers know.
The best place to start is 'txtr UK, as this gets good Google results and is in English. So are the US, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand sites of course, but the search engines in our experience tend not to pick them up so easily.
Just search for 'txtr UK, or go to http://gb.txtr.com/ and then tootle down to the right-hand corner where you'll find a menu for all the 'txtr stores and can get the country-specific link and price in local currency ready for your promo.
Don't expect miracles. The 'txtr US and Canada stores are obviously insignificant, but 'txtr are picking up steam elsewhere. 'Txtr are a Berlin-based operator so have a good presence in Germany (45 million English-speakers since you ask), Austria and central Europe. 'Txtr supply epub files which can be read using the free 'txtr app on any tablet, not just their own ereader – the 'txtr Beagle.
In addition to their own stores 'txtr also act as a feeder for other stores like Britain's prestigious Foyles, and also the Sony Australia, Austria, UK and Germany Reader Stores, though given the said Sony stores are closing shortly that's academic.
'Txtr won't bring you sales in big numbers any time soon, if ever, but for those of you who value reaching readers globally and building a long-term career, over chasing quick-fix sales from one or two big retailers, the Smashwords partnership with 'txtr is wonderful opportunity.
If you have an author website then take time out to set up a showcase for your international portfolio of ebooks. We'll be posting in detail on suggestions how to do this shortly, but here suffice to say if you are with Apple, Kobo, Google Play and 'txtr you will be able to proudly display your titles with links in local currencies to local retailers in around one hundred different countries.
Then instead of spending time promoting one or two stores over and over you can promo your author website and let readers make their own choice about which retailer they will buy from. And of course you can also sell direct to readers, which is another option we'll be looking at more closely soon.
If you're Going Global In 2014 then do keep in mind it's a two-part process.
Being there is of course half the battle. If your titles aren't available no-one can buy them.
But the other half is letting readers know you're there.
Tweet a 'txtr link a day to build a truly global readership.

EPA Grant Helps Reduce Diesel Exhaust Pollution from School Buses at Richmond and Hopewell School Districts
Release Date: 04/24/2006
Contact Information: Donna Heron, (215) 814-5113
PHILADELPHIA – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has awarded a Clean School Bus Grant of $274,000 to the Richmond and Hopewell School Districts in Virginia.
The $274,000 grant award is among the $7.5 million Clean School Bus USA grants that have been awarded to school districts across the country in 2006. The grants will help fund the cleanup of more than 500 million tons of diesel exhaust from 4,000 school buses nationwide.
"This is good news for the students in the Richmond and Hopewell School Districts," said EPA Regional Administrator Donald S. Welsh. "Cleaner buses and cleaner air mean fewer respiratory ailments, and a brighter, healthier future for all our kids."
Richmond School District will retrofit 170 of its 234 school buses with a diesel oxidation catalyst, a device that captures diesel particles from the engine before they are emitted into the outside air. Hopewell School District plans to retrofit 27 of its 31 buses with diesel oxidation catalysts. The Virginia Department of Environmental Quality will provide technical support to the schools, as well as a five percent match of the total grant award.
"We feel very fortunate to have been selected for the grant award because it took a team effort from Hopewell County Public Schools, Virginia Regional Environment Management System, Global Environment & Technology Foundation, Virginia Department of Environment Quality and Richmond Public Schools. The EPA funds will be used by the Richmond School District to clean the exhaust emissions in one of the oldest bus fleets in the metro Richmond area," said Vincent Ashley, assistant director of pupil transportation for Richmond City Schools.
In April 2003, EPA launched the Clean School Bus USA program to help reduce children's exposure to diesel exhaust. The particles in diesel exhaust can penetrate deep into the lungs and pose health risks including aggravated asthma symptoms and other health problems. Children are especially vulnerable to the effects of diesel emissions, which can cause respiratory disease and exacerbate long-term conditions such as asthma. They are more susceptible to air pollution because their respiratory systems are still developing and they have a faster breathing rate.
School buses provide a vital service, safely transporting close to 24 million children nationally to and from school every day. Cleaner school buses help not only the children who ride in them but their bus drivers, teachers, families, and communities also benefit from cleaner air and reduced exposure to diesel exhaust.

Tuesday, January 3rd is day 3 of my project 365 and is also the first day of work in 2012. So it seems fitting to post a work related photograph:
This is a shot of my desk at work. It's nothing fancy but it is in a small corner office with a fair amount of natural light. I'm sure at some point in the next 300+ days you'll see the view from my office. My desk is fairly organized and clean as I start 2012 but I'm sure that will change quickly :-) The framed picture on the desk is a shot I took at the Seattle Botanical Gardens back in September, 2001. It's a very peaceful image of the Japanese garden section and every time I look at it my pulse drops a few beats, which can be a good thing some days. On the right side you can see my stash of olive oil, balsamic vinegar and some Trader Joe's "Everyday Seasoning". This comes in handy for those days I bring a big salad to work for lunch (which is a couple times a week). That's it for the tour of my desk. How about you? What does your workspace look like? Post a picture or link of it in the comments. Happy Shooting!

Adventure! is a pulp action role-playing game originally printed by White Wolf Game Studio, the third and last book in the Trinity Universe line of games. The game, printed in black and white on pulp-like sepia paper to resemble a period piece, was conceived as a one-book game line, and was never supported by official supplements. Despite having a vocal fanbase, the Trinity Universe line was discontinued shortly after the game's publication; a d20 system version was released in 2004. In 2002, Adventure! won the Origins Award for Best Role-Playing Game of 2001.Onyx Path Publishing has recently acquired the rights to the Trinity Universe and has announced its intention to release a new edition of Adventure!
The game is set in the 1920s and therefore at the origin of the Trinity Universe timeline. The release of unknown Telluric energy has led to the appearance of a number of particularly gifted characters, whose actions have the potential for shaping the future history of the world. The Aeon Society for Gentlemen, founded by philanthropist Maxwell Mercer, is trying to bring together as many "Inspired" characters as possible, supporting and coordinating them in their effort for the betterment of all of humanity. But darkness lurks, and Mercer's champions will have to face it in the most unlikely locales. There are three archetypes ("character classes") for players to choose from:
An adventure is an undertaking into the unknown, often having a connotation of danger and excitement.
Adventure or The Adventure may also refer to:
In the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game, an adventure or module is a pre-packaged book or box set that helps the Dungeon Master manage the plot or story of a game. The term adventure is currently used by the game's publisher Wizards of the Coast.
In early editions of the game these publications were commonly referred to as modules, which stems from the term dungeon module, used to refer to the earliest adventures published by TSR, with other variations on the module name appearing on latter adventures. The term module continued to be popular among players of the original Dungeons & Dragons and Advanced Dungeons & Dragons even after newer publications were labeled adventure. Adventures that appear as a part of a larger accessory are often referred to as scenarios.
The exact differences between the terms adventure, module, scenario, and accessory are hard to precisely define in Dungeons & Dragons terminology, as they all have been used in different ways.
Epic or E.P.I.C. may refer to:
Epic is a privacy-centric web browser developed by Hidden Reflex and based on Chromium source code. It is the first web browser from India.
Epic was released on August 29, 2013 and focused on protecting users' privacy online. First released on 15 July 2010, Epic Browser is originally based on Google Chrome and is customized to the taste of Indian users.

"Epic" is a song by the American rock band Faith No More. It was released in 1989 as the second single from their third album The Real Thing in US and in 1990 as their second single from that album in the UK and Europe. The song was a breakthrough hit. It peaked at number nine on the Billboard Hot 100 (the band's only Top Ten hit in the United States), and their first Number One single on the Australian charts. It is among the band's most popular songs and a staple in their concerts.
"Epic" was ranked number 30 on VH1's 40 Greatest Metal Songs, number 67 on their 100 Greatest One-Hit Wonders list, in 2009, it was named the 54th best hard rock song of all time also by VH1, also in 2009 it charted number 46 on the Triple J Hottest 100 of All Time, the largest music poll in the world.
Directed by Ralph Ziman, the music video for "Epic" which featured surreal images combined with performance footage of the band soaked by an artificial rainstorm on a sound stage, was subject to controversy because of the treatment of a fish, who is out of water and appeared to be dying on camera.

TROWBRIDGE'S Graham Shadwell has made a fine start to the new year by winning the English Indoor Bowling Association's Champion of Champions title for a second time.
Winner of the crown in 2005, the England international and Clarrie Dunbar indoor player added to his tally of national titles when he defeated junior international Travis Mellor (Isle of Wight) 21-13 in the final this afternoon (Sunday) at Warner Lakeside, Hayling Island.
Apart from one match, Shadwell had a comfortable ride to his second champion of champions national crown.
On Friday evening in the last 16 at Hayling Island he beat Croydon's Alan Binns 21-13 and followed that up on Saturday afternoon with a 21-13 quarter-final victory over Lee Barber (Bounds Green, Middx).
This morning in a tight semi-final match against Neil McKee (Kingsthorpe, Northampton), the runner-up two years ago, Shadwell was pushed all the way and after only leading 17-16 eventually won 21-17 to book his place in the final against Mellor.
The youngster from Ryde on the Isle of Wight had won the other semi-final 21-18 when defeating former England international Danny Denison (Torquay United), but found current senior international Shadwell too hot to handle in the final.

It seems like only yesterday that I held this funny looking, hair-covered, tan baby as she took her first breaths of life.
Today she turns 21.
Where has the time gone? I know it is a question that every parent since the dawn of man has asked, and I suppose it is one of the many burdens that we take to our graves.
No regrets.
She is the first of three children that my wife and I brought into this world, and I can still remember desperately hoping that she would not be born on the same day as her great grandmother. I would quietly bite my tongue when relatives with only good intentions made remarks like "Wouldn't it be great if the baby came on Grandma Hammond's birthday?". I wanted my child to be unique in every way and to make his or her name for themselves. I'd have none of this sharing a birthday talk!
Naturally, Sarah was born on Grandma Hammond's birthday.
From the moment I first held her I no longer cared what day she called her birthday. At the moment the doctor put her into my arms the petty worries about who else was born on that day vanished. I was holding a living, breathing person that would cut her own path in the world and in doing so help to define my legacy.
I pledged at that moment to forever be there whenever she needed me and to always protect and comfort her as she grew up. I'd make that same pledge for her brother and sister at their births.
Now twenty-one years of moments in time flash through my mind. Synchronized swimming meets, softball games, soccer games, lacrosse games, driving lessons, academic awards ceremonies, college visits, and a Salutatorian speech all are snapshots that I will keep for the rest of my life. Of course they are tempered with things like hair getting caught in a game piece, staples in the top of her head from where a golf club accidentally found its way, a broken leg while playing soccer, and a broken heart from a first love lost.
I can't imagine going through life without my kids, and Sarah is the one that has had to show us the way.
She's done a pretty damn good job.
Today represents yet another step into adulthood for the oldest of my offspring. I'm not quite sure why I am so sentimental as twenty-one is merely an age that some government official deemed humans are old enough to drink and live out from under the umbrella of their parents' guardianship.
It's funny how life can be. When your children are young you find yourself anxious to reach the next phase in their growth. You want them to become more independent and self-sufficient. Yet, once they mature and achieve the levels of independence that you hoped for, you can't help but long for the days where you sat in the stands watching in the unbearable heat of an indoor swimming complex while they desperately tried to impress judges during a "synchro play day". You only want to relive those snapshots in time.
But you can't.
Instead, you celebrate the fact that they continue to meet new challenges on their own while you sit on the virtual sidelines beaming with pride and awestruck in what they've achieved. You are always at the ready to catch them should they fall, but you know that with each passing year they become a little more sure footed.
Sarah continues to break new ground for the Skinner family and next year she'll graduate from college, becoming the first of our three kids to do so.
For now, we'll just relish the fact that she is safe and relatively happy and healthy. For a parent, it is pretty much the goal we set out to accomplish.
Happy Birthday Sarah. Stay the course and never look back. If you stumble, we'll be there to catch you.

I have never automated my process, and I have as many versions as I want to blow disk space on. For the base OS, the script that is running right now is: # cat basesync.sh #!/bin/sh rsync -avu rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5.4/os/i386/ \ --delete --exclude=debug/ /repos/centos/5.4/os/i386 For updates: # cat updatesync.sh #!/bin/sh rsync -auv rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5.4/updates/i386/ \ --delete --exclude=debug/ /repos/centos/5.4/updates/i386 'Traditionally' I run the updates script whenever I see a Centos Annoucement of new rpms. I have a symlink of /repos/centos to /var/www/html so I then setup my /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo to have: [base] name=CentOS-$releasever - Base baseurl=http://repo.htt-consult.com/centos/5.n/os/$basearch/ Where 5.n is the version I am running on that box. I also have a symlink of the current version to /repos/centos/5 so I can just use /centos/5/.... for the current version. I have to update that symlink today from 5.3 to 5.4... Oh there is a similar line for [updates]. I recently deleted my repos for FC9 and rsynced the repos for FC11. There I have a bit more to exclude. On a fresh install I boot into 'linux askmethod' off CD 1, and provide the URL for the base repo to install off my local repo which is faster than flipping through 6 CDs (and more reliable). I suspect it would even be faster than the 1 DVD, if I had servers here with DVD drives on them!

Greyscale, one of the premier vocal ensembles in the ETSU Department of Music, will present their first public performance of the semester live on Oct. 16, at the Acoustic Coffeehouse in Johnson City at 7:30 p.m.
The event will mark Greyscale's third year presenting this concert series known as Java Jive, where students and members of the community can enjoy the smooth sound of Greyscale's jazz and pop fusion harmony, while sipping coffee in a fun and relaxing environment.
Greyscale was first formed in the fall of 2013 with a select group of 12 vocalists — six women and six men — who aimed to create an all new genre of music combining jazz, folk, classical, and more contemporary styles.
Greyscale even got its name for this specific reason. As they like to say, "Not everything is in black and white." Because members wanted to avoid being typecast in a particular category, they decided to represent the grey area of their music style in what their ensemble was to be called.
The incredible acappella group now comprises 13 student singers. Sopranos include Autumn Brown, Molly Ellson, and Elizabeth Painter; Altos: Meghan Clark, Emily Ducko, and Adrienne Hutton; Tenors: Nathaniel Couper, Derrick Epps, Matthew Hartgrove, and Christian Johnson; Basses: Maison Barnett, William McCart, and Joseph Smithdeal.
Under the direction of conductor Alan Stevens, Greyscale has become very loved by many students and a top choice for entertainment at ETSU.They have performed at several events on campus, such as the Distinguished President's Trust Banquet, Open House and the Spring Fling.
"Let's be honest, college can be stressful," said Autumn Brown, a Greyscale performer, "So when given the chance to go to a fun event, why not sit down and breathe and listen to music. I know firsthand the overload we can feel sometimes from being in college."
The group sung at the Blue Plum Festival in Johnson City and on WETS 89.5 Studio One, becoming a big hit in the local community as well.
"When we perform together we don't have to put on a facade. We are genuinely happy to be singing together, and in all honesty when you enjoy the people you are with it's easier to put on a show for an audience," Brown said.
This Java Jive session is expected to be an even bigger success than it has been in the past, and it's happening this Friday.
"I hope to see the Acoustic Coffee House and Next Door packed with ETSU students on Oct. 16 at 7:30 p.m.," Brown said, "Not only to see us, but the Appalachian State University group Higherground as they will be there performing as well."

What a summer. I knew it would fly by and it certainly has but not without the most awesome, amazing mid-summer event called Blogger Bash event in NYC this last July.
Between running kids to camp and traveling to my mom's and to the mountains, I had the opportunity to swing up to New York for a quick overnight stay. I wasn't 100% sure I would be able to attend Sweet Suite on the first night since it came down to the wire the day before when my teenager took her driver's license test. The entire 2nd half of the summer rested on whether she passed and … wait for it… she PASSED and YES, my freedom to attend Sweet Suite and head out for travel plans for the next two weeks were an official GO. Yay!
Now, on to the party. The two day event started with a VIP experience with several guest appearances including Big Ang from Mob Wives. During the day, we also received a lovely handbag from MZWallace. We also heard the latest from the Disney Infinity peeps and got a sneak peek at new characters being added.
You can see above a couple of PSMM (Philly Social Media Moms) ladies with our MZ Wallace bag swag. (Instagram photo by Whitney of Mommies with Style.)
I also talked to the one and only amazing my social media hero Ciaran Blumenthal, founder of Hashtracking, in the hallway and over dinner that night. Love the site for tracking hashtags, love her.
In the evening, everyone was treated to the one and only Sweet Suite with vendors of all sorts who came out to show off the hottest new toys.
Loved the idea of these new Vtech Kidizoom Smartwatches for kids — bringing kids into this generation in a fun way; though, knowing the propensity of kids to focus on the gross and bizarre and embarrassing, the photo-taking & video options worried me a little.
Loved these quality costumes by Just Pretend Kids. Check out their site for new all-in-one party box options.
And, the awesome cold tea options by Rooibee Red Tea made the event that much sweeter! So very delish.
On day two, participants were treated to more events, speakers and sponsor highlights. Starting mid-day, I excused myself from the masses and join in the prep for #EAEvents from 4-6 pm after quickly jumping into the Bloganthropy awards to check out all the awesome bloggers nominated and recognized for using social media for good, run by Debbie Bookstaber.
And, then in the middle of the events, I got a call to come pick up the MiP Robot! My card had been drawn from the bowl where I dropped it earlier. How totally fun. I love winning things. The MiP is equipped with GestureSense™ Technology and responds to hand motions & objects to move.
Returning home, I left for two weeks of travel, during which my very special Sweet Suite Box arrived! I don't have room in one post here to list every single vendor but below you see listed my 10 faves from the event and/or box. You may see some more of the products showing up in upcoming posts and you can see both links to the companies and to where you can buy most of them on Amazon below.
10 of my fave items from the event/swag box included:
1. Skylanders by Activision – a hot item with my nephew. He went nuts over the one that came in my box.
2. Creativity Can by Faber-Castell – My girls were immediately drawn to the variety of materials and at separate times, created their own imaginary figures from the items in the can.
3. Disney Infinity (We actually received a Tinker Bell at the party to carry home.)
4. SpinMaster Kinectic Sand which I saw at the event or SandsAlive by PlayVisions which we received in our box.
5. SpinMaster Zoomer – a fun robot dog you can train to do tricks.
6. Banagrams WildTiles – The game is changing! Try your hand at the new WildTiles version.
7. Blox & Bits by Goldie Blox – The toys for future innovators and engineers! Book set meets construction set for girls.
8. Kidz Bop 26 Biggest Hits sung by kids for kids. Despite all the ways to get music out there, it's still nice to get pre-made compilations you can trust and pop into the car CD player when out and about or in the boombox at home.
9. Minecraft Toys by Mojang – My teen daughters love collectible items representing their favorite games. Minecraft, which takes up plenty of their time, is not exception.
10. Reverse Charades by USAopoly. With older kids, we love all the games we can get. We haven't tried this one yet but I am looking forward to it.
Here are the items (or similar) listed above on Amazon:
What fun, huh?! What is a favorite item you see pictured here?

text: Posted by: jsharpe on September 2, 2015 in Industry News, Installer Blog Leave a comment Biomass industry needs better regulation Paul Clark, Managing Director of Rural Energy believes the biomass industry needs better regulation to avoid issues in the future. The rising popularity of biomass heating thanks to the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) has brought a lucrative new revenue stream for plumbing and heating installers looking to profit from the growth in renewable technologies. However, there are some serious issues within the supply chain that installers need to be aware of to avoid potentially damaging repercussions further down the line. The problem is that, while biomass heating installations under 45kW are governed by the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS), there is no national accreditation scheme for installers undertaking installations larger than 45kW. Legally speaking, no official training or qualifications are required, so theoretically anyone could set themselves up as a commercial biomass installer. While this may initially seem like a positive for installers looking to break into the biomass market, the lack of training, regulation and proper safety standards is potentially catastrophic. Accreditation to some installers might seem restricting, but it can actually create more business for those who comply. By investing in appropriate training, installers can offer a high level of quality assurance to potential customers, helping them win more contracts. What's particularly concerning about the situation is that it's the larger boilers at the commercial end of the scale that require the most expertise to ensure a safe installation and efficient running. As a young industry building its reputation, the impact of less scrupulous installers on market viability could be severe – which is bad news for credible installers looking to make a long term career out of biomass heating.

A 65-year-old woman who smuggled five kilos of cocaine into JFK Airport from Peru — hidden in strawberry-marmalade containers — was the recipient of some holiday-season compassion in Brooklyn federal court Thursday.
Mercedes Gamarra de Lopez, who has served more than 3¹/₂ years in prison, was released due to her poor health.
De Lopez was stopped in 2011 by Customs officials who found eight "Gloria's Marmelada" pouches containing about $150,000 worth of cocaine in her duffel bag.
She faced a guideline minimum of 10 years to life in prison.
But prosecutors and the judge felt she had done enough time given the fact she needs dialysis three times a week, is nearly blind and needs a kidney transplant.
Brooklyn federal Judge Edward Korman said he would release de Lopez because "of her extraordinarily poor health and because she has already served 40 months which is already particularly difficult as someone in her condition."

What the heck is the Freedom Caucus you ask? Remember after Barack Obama won his first election to president and he, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi raised taxes on corporations and individuals. Soon Thereafter the "taxed enough already" groups started popping up around the country and calling themselves the Tea Party. Tea Party members realized their wrath went far beyond the Democrats in office. They had to get rid of some of the Republicans that never listened to their constituents. They began looking for conservative candidates to replace members of congress. They were successful and Republicans retook control of the House of Representatives in the 2010 election, because of the energy of Tea Party members. The newly elected house members joined together in a conservative voting bloc called the Tea Party Caucus. The Tea Party caucus evolved and enticed new members through conversion or election and became the Freedom Caucus.
Congressional Republicans still would not listen. Now two leaders in the House have been replaced in recent years. In 2014 Eric Cantor, the House Majority Leader, lost his seat in the House of Representatives in a primary election to Dave Brat. Cantor lost because he spent all his time in Washington DC and did not appear interested in what people that elected him wanted him to do in Washington. The voters of Virginia had enough and Found a Tea Party endorsed candidate to challenge Cantor. Challenge he did and Brat sent Cantor packing.
Next came John Boehner who was the exalted Speaker of the House. Boehner spent 5 years marginalizing the Tea Party Caucus and continued to do so after their evolution to the Freedom Caucus. Boehner went along with everything the Democrats wanted and the Freedom Caucus finally had enough. They began looking for a candidate to replace Boehner and started a revolution in the House of Representatives. Boehner finally had to give up his job as Speaker and retire from the House of Representatives.
Then along came "The Donald." Donald Trump may win the Republican nomination for president and Congressional Republicans are now up in arms, because the people's choice for a presidential candidate is not a Washington insider. Boo hoo hoo. Republican donors and Republican leadership and their supporters are in full panic mode. They are trying every dirty trick they can muster to keep someone from getting into office that might actually listen to the people instead of letting them continue business as usual. They are openly hoping they can force a brokered convention to thwart the people and "The Donald."
Mitt Romney is even offering to come back and challenge Trump. He could not muster enough votes to win last time. Does than not make him a loser? The Republican Party would prefer a loser in the White House they can control. They absolutely do not want a candidate that might actually do what he was hired to do. The panic and chaos is well deserved – Republican leaders asked for it loudly and for a long time.

Crowland manager Paul Lucas is confident his side will soon shed their reputation as one of the Peterborough League Premier Division's whipping boys.
Lucas and his team celebrated the end of a run of 12 successive defeats when beating Deeping Reserves 2-1 last weekend.
Crowland had taken four points from their opening two games, but nothing else since until two Pat Dooner goals secured a come-from-behind win over Deeping.
Crowland are on their third manager of the season. Long-serving club official Pete Harrison was the man in the hot seaat at the start of the season before reserve team boss Darren Warner took charge for one game.
Warner then asked Lucas to take charge and the Deeping match was his fourth as the boss - his third had ended in a 10-1 defeat against ICA Sports.
"We didn't deserve to lose by that many," Lucas claimed. "Four or five would have been fairer as we played better than 10- would suggest. We played without a recognised goalkeeper as well.
"There's no way we will finish in the bottom three in my opinion. We have good players to come back into the side and we have some good quality in the squad.
"I only managed the reserve team for one game and I left them with a perfect winning record!
"This win was better though as it ended a terrible run and we showed lots of spirit to come back from behind to get the three points.
"Pat Dooner still has the quality if not the legs to get around midfield, but he came up trumps for us. His second goal was from 35 yards after the Deeping 'keeper had passed it to him.
"Pat owed me a good performance as he was awful against ICA!
"I hope it's the start of better form, but we have a tough game against Peterborough Sports this Saturday."
It was a decent day all round for teams at the bottom as Uppingham won 4-2 at Langtoft and Leverington beat AFC Stanground 3-1.
City side Riverside have now dropped to the foot of the table after losing 5-1 at home to leaders Moulton Harrox who have now won all 11 of their top-flight matches.
Sports are back in second after goals from Chris Brown and Dan Fountain secured a 2-1 win in a city derby at ICA.
Harrox will expect to make it 12 wins in a row when they entertain Langtoft this Saturday (November 21).
Riverside have a great chance of getting back off the bottom as they host fellow strugglers Uppingham.
Thorney booked a second round PFA Senior Cup date with Harrox after winning 3-1 at Stilton in the first round last weekend. Rob da Silva, Leon Gellizeau and Dan Retzlaff scored the Thorney goals.
