Expectations are strange things.
Something can meet your expectations, in which case you're generally satisfied; exceed your expectations, in which case you're generally happy; or fall short of your expectations, in which case you're generally disappointed.
But sometimes something can so completely conflict with your expectations yet not be a source of disappointment and, in fact, bring a lot of unexpected joy.
The 2010 high school football season concluded Friday night. And what a season it was.
The John Hardin Bulldogs reached the Class 5-A state semifinals for a third consecutive season. It was another stellar season as the Bulldogs went 13-1. The Central Hardin Bruins set a school record for wins, won a playoff game for the first time since 1997 and ended up 9-3. The North Hardin Trojans were back in the playoffs, while the Elizabethtown Panthers made a late charge.
Area high school basketball coaches have had six weeks to get their teams ready for the 2010-11 season and now they'll get to see the fruits of their labor.
The high school season gets under way with four games tonight and four more Tuesday night. Tonight's slate includes two girls' games – Elizabethtown at Meade County at 7:30 and North Hardin at Hart County at 8 – and a Fort Knox-Caverna girl/boy doubleheader.
The season isn't beginning the way the defending 5th Region champion North Hardin Trojans envisioned.
The Trojans, who finished last season 27-5, were one of the preseason favorites to win the region, but they were dealt a major loss Saturday night when junior point guard Jermaine Ruttley went down with possibly a season-ending injury.
"That's a pretty big blow to take," North Hardin coach Ron Bevars said.
The small town of White Mills on Sunday night kicked off the Christmas season on the banks of the Nolin River with a bridge lighting, parade and chili supper.
"The kids have a blast every time they come down here," said area resident Nancy Linder, who watched the parade with her grandchildren. She also gets to see people she hasn't seen in a while.
"It's a good time," said Tim Dennis, a Civic League organizer.

McDonald's in Japan has gotten into the Halloween spirit early, offering a salty and sweet treat for its customers: seasonal pumpkin fries.
It's a combination of McDonald's classic French fries, drizzled with pumpkin sauce and chocolate sauce.
Time magazine reported that Japan's McDonald's locations will begin selling the novelty item on Sept. 28, and will end the promotion on Oct. 31.
This is not the first Halloween food McDonald's has tested out. In 2014 a burger with a black bun — dyed with squid ink — was offered in Tokyo. In January, McDonald's also offered a McChoco Potato in Japan. That item combined two types of chocolate sauces—chocolate with cacao flavor and white milk chocolate.2016年に1月に大人気だったマックチョコポテトが、進化して帰ってきます!!……なんと今回はハロウィンバージョン:ghost:このヤバイ色、パンプキン&チョコソースです!#ハロウィンチョコポテト#9月28日から pic.twitter.com/OygxYXjvAT — マクドナルド (@McDonaldsJapan) September 21, 2016
Here's a roundup of news trending across the nation and world today.
What to know now:
1. Shooting protests: The governor of North Carolina has declared a state of emergency as violent protests continued Wednesday following the police shooting of an African American man. The National Guard was deployed in Charlotte after a protester was shot by another protester Wednesday. The demonstrations started after Keith Lamont Scott was shot by a Charlotte Police officer after police said he ignored a request to drop a weapon he was holding. Authorities say there is video of the shooting, but it has not been released.
2. Sexting, again: Former New York congressman Anthony Weiner says the claim that he sexted with a 15-year-old girl is "probably a hoax," though he stopped sort of denying the accusation. Weiner was accused Wednesday of exchanging sexually explicit texts with the teenager earlier this year in an online relationship that lasted several months. "I have repeatedly demonstrated terrible judgement about the people I have communicated with online and the things I have sent," Weiner told FoxNews.com. Weiner is the estranged husband of Huma Abedin, a longtime aide to Hillary Clinton. If the story is true, Weiner could face charges.
3. Birther no more: In an interview Wednesday, Donald Trump says he made the announcement last week that President Barack Obama was born in the United States because he wanted to "get on with the campaign." Trump said it was a distraction and he wanted to address other issues during the last weeks of the campaign. "Well, I just wanted to get on with, you know, we want to get on with the campaign. "And a lot of people were asking me questions. And you know, we want to talk about jobs, we want to talk about the military," he said. "We want to talk about ISIS and how to get rid of ISIS. We want to really talk about bringing jobs back to this area because you've been decimated. So we really want to get just back onto the subject of jobs, military, taking care of our vets, et cetera."
4. Call for an investigation: A Michigan congressman has called on the IRS to audit the Trump Foundation. After reports that Trump used Foundation money to pay for a legal settlement, Sander Levin, (D-Mich.), sent a letter to IRS Commissioner John Koskinen asking that the agency look into the use of the foundation's charitable funds. The Washington Post reported that Trump used $258,000 from his charity to pay off settlements in two lawsuits.
5. Pitt isn't the father: Actress Marion Cotillard announced Wednesday that she is pregnant and that Brad Pitt is not the baby's father. Cotillard's name was mentioned as a possible reason for the split between Pitt and his wife, actress Angelina Jolie. Jolie filed divorce papers last week. Cotillard was rumored to be involved with Pitt whom she met when the two made a movie together recently. The actress said she wanted to set the record straight because the rumors were, "affecting people I love." She confirmed her longtime relationship with actor Guillaume Canet. The couple have a 5-year-old son.
And one more
Disney has pulled a costume for a Polynesian character from its stores after complaints that it is insulting to Pacific Islander people. The costume, which was released in advance of Disney's new movie "Moana," lets children dress as "Maui," a figure in Polynesian oral traditions who is featured in the animated film. The costume consists of a long-sleeve brown shirt and brown long pants with full-body tattoos. Some complained that the costume was disrespectful to Maui, and likened it to one that would feature blackface.
In case you missed it
President Obama spoke to the United Nation's General Assembly on Tuesday. Here is his speech.
"Mr. President; Mr. Secretary General; fellow delegates; ladies and gentlemen: As I address this hall as President for the final time, let me recount the progress that we've made these last eight years.
From the depths of the greatest financial crisis of our time, we coordinated our response to avoid further catastrophe and return the global economy to growth. We've taken away terrorist safe havens, strengthened the nonproliferation regime, resolved the Iranian nuclear issue through diplomacy. We opened relations with Cuba, helped Colombia end Latin America's longest warm, and we welcome a democratically elected leader of Myanmar to this Assembly. Our assistance is helping people feed themselves, care for the sick, power communities across Africa, and promote models of development rather than dependence. And we have made international institutions like the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund more representative, while establishing a framework to protect our planet from the ravages of climate change.
This is important work. It has made a real difference in the lives of our people. And it could not have happened had we not worked together. And yet, around the globe we are seeing the same forces of global integration that have made us interdependent also expose deep fault lines in the existing international order.
We see it in the headlines every day. Around the world, refugees flow across borders in flight from brutal conflict. Financial disruptions continue to weigh upon our workers and entire communities. Across vast swaths of the Middle East, basic security, basic order has broken down. We see too many governments muzzling journalists, and quashing dissent, and censoring the flow of information. Terrorist networks use social media to prey upon the minds of our youth, endangering open societies and spurring anger against innocent immigrants and Muslims. Powerful nations contest the constraints placed on them by international law.
This is the paradox that defines our world today. A quarter century after the end of the Cold War, the world is by many measures less violent and more prosperous than ever before, and yet our societies are filled with uncertainty, and unease, and strife. Despite enormous progress, as people lose trust in institutions, governing becomes more difficult and tensions between nations become more quick to surface.
And so I believe that at this moment we all face a choice. We can choose to press forward with a better model of cooperation and integration. Or we can retreat into a world sharply divided, and ultimately in conflict, along age-old lines of nation and tribe and race and religion.
I want to suggest to you today that we must go forward, and not backward. I believe that as imperfect as they are, the principles of open markets and accountable governance, of democracy and human rights and international law that we have forged remain the firmest foundation for human progress in this century. I make this argument not based on theory or ideology, but on facts -- facts that all too often, we forget in the immediacy of current events.
Here's the most important fact: The integration of our global economy has made life better for billions of men, women and children. Over the last 25 years, the number of people living in extreme poverty has been cut from nearly 40 percent of humanity to under 10 percent. That's unprecedented. And it's not an abstraction. It means children have enough to eat; mothers don't die in childbirth.
Meanwhile, cracking the genetic code promises to cure diseases that have plagued us for centuries. The Internet can deliver the entirety of human knowledge to a young girl in a remote village on a single hand-held device. In medicine and in manufacturing, in education and communications, we're experiencing a transformation of how human beings live on a scale that recalls the revolutions in agriculture and industry. And as a result, a person born today is more likely to be healthy, to live longer, and to have access to opportunity than at any time in human history.
Moreover, the collapse of colonialism and communism has allowed more people than ever before to live with the freedom to choose their leaders. Despite the real and troubling areas where freedom appears in retreat, the fact remains that the number of democracies around the world has nearly doubled in the last 25 years.
In remote corners of the world, citizens are demanding respect for the dignity of all people no matter their gender, or race, or religion, or disability, or sexual orientation, and those who deny others dignity are subject to public reproach. An explosion of social media has given ordinary people more ways to express themselves, and has raised people's expectations for those of us in power. Indeed, our international order has been so successful that we take it as a given that great powers no longer fight world wars; that the end of the Cold War lifted the shadow of nuclear Armageddon; that the battlefields of Europe have been replaced by peaceful union; that China and India remain on a path of remarkable growth.
I say all this not to whitewash the challenges we face, or to suggest complacency. Rather, I believe that we need to acknowledge these achievements in order to summon the confidence to carry this progress forward and to make sure that we do not abandon those very things that have delivered this progress.
In order to move forward, though, we do have to acknowledge that the existing path to global integration requires a course correction. As too often, those trumpeting the benefits of globalization have ignored inequality within and among nations; have ignored the enduring appeal of ethnic and sectarian identities; have left international institutions ill-equipped, underfunded, under-resourced, in order to handle transnational challenges.
And as these real problems have been neglected, alternative visions of the world have pressed forward both in the wealthiest countries and in the poorest: Religious fundamentalism; the politics of ethnicity, or tribe, or sect; aggressive nationalism; a crude populism -- sometimes from the far left, but more often from the far right -- which seeks to restore what they believe was a better, simpler age free of outside contamination.
We cannot dismiss these visions. They are powerful. They reflect dissatisfaction among too many of our citizens. I do not believe those visions can deliver security or prosperity over the long term, but I do believe that these visions fail to recognize, at a very basic level, our common humanity. Moreover, I believe that the acceleration of travel and technology and telecommunications -- together with a global economy that depends on a global supply chain -- makes it self-defeating ultimately for those who seek to reverse this progress. Today, a nation ringed by walls would only imprison itself.
So the answer cannot be a simple rejection of global integration. Instead, we must work together to make sure the benefits of such integration are broadly shared, and that the disruptions -- economic, political, and cultural -- that are caused by integration are squarely addressed. This is not the place for a detailed policy blueprint, but let me offer in broad strokes those areas where I believe we must do better together.
It starts with making the global economy work better for all people and not just for those at the top. While open markets, capitalism have raised standards of living around the globe, globalization combined with rapid progress and technology has also weakened the position of workers and their ability to secure a decent wage. In advanced economies like my own, unions have been undermined, and many manufacturing jobs have disappeared. Often, those who benefit most from globalization have used their political power to further undermine the position of workers.
In developing countries, labor organizations have often been suppressed, and the growth of the middle class has been held back by corruption and underinvestment. Mercantilist policies pursued by governments with export-driven models threaten to undermine the consensus that underpins global trade. And meanwhile, global capital is too often unaccountable -- nearly $8 trillion stashed away in tax havens, a shadow banking system that grows beyond the reach of effective oversight.
A world in which one percent of humanity controls as much wealth as the other 99 percent will never be stable. I understand that the gaps between rich and poor are not new, but just as the child in a slum today can see the skyscraper nearby, technology now allows any person with a smartphone to see how the most privileged among us live and the contrast between their own lives and others. Expectations rise, then, faster than governments can deliver, and a pervasive sense of injustice undermine people's faith in the system.
So how do we fix this imbalance? We cannot unwind integration any more than we can stuff technology back into a box. Nor can we look to failed models of the past. If we start resorting to trade wars, market distorting subsidies, beggar thy neighbor policies, an overreliance on natural resources instead of innovation -- these approaches will make us poorer, collectively, and they are more like to lead to conflict. And the stark contrast between, say, the success of the Republic of Korea and the wasteland of North Korea shows that central, planned control of the economy is a dead end.
But I do believe there's another path -- one that fuels growth and innovation, and offers the clearest route to individual opportunity and national success. It does not require succumbing to a soulless capitalism that benefits only the few, but rather recognizes that economies are more successful when we close the gap between rich and poor, and growth is broadly based. And that means respecting the rights of workers so they can organize into independent unions and earn a living wage. It means investing in our people -- their skills, their education, their capacity to take an idea and turn it into a business. It means strengthening the safety net that protects our people from hardship and allows them to take more risks -- to look for a new job, or start a new venture.
These are the policies that I've pursued here in the United States, and with clear results. American businesses have created now 15 million new jobs. After the recession, the top one percent of Americans were capturing more than 90 percent of income growth. But today, that's down to about half. Last year, poverty in this country fell at the fastest rate in nearly 50 years. And with further investment in infrastructure and early childhood education and basic research, I'm confident that such progress will continue.
So just as I've pursued these measures here at home, so has the United States worked with many nations to curb the excesses of capitalism -- not to punish wealth, but to prevent repeated crises that can destroy it. That's why we've worked with other nations to create higher and clearer standards for banking and taxation -- because a society that asks less of oligarchs than ordinary citizens will rot from within. That's why we've pushed for transparency and cooperation in rooting out corruption, and tracking illicit dollars, because markets create more jobs when they're fueled by hard work, and not the capacity to extort a bribe. That's why we've worked to reach trade agreements that raise labor standards and raise environmental standards, as we've done with the Trans-Pacific Partnership, so that the benefits are more broadly shared.
And just as we benefit by combatting inequality within our countries, I believe advanced economies still need to do more to close the gap between rich and poor nations around the globe. This is difficult politically. It's difficult to spend on foreign assistance. But I do not believe this is charity. For the small fraction of what we spent at war in Iraq we could support institutions so that fragile states don't collapse in the first place, and invest in emerging economies that become markets for our goods. It's not just the right thing to do, it's the smart thing to do.
And that's why we need to follow through on our efforts to combat climate change. If we don't act boldly, the bill that could come due will be mass migrations, and cities submerged and nations displaced, and food supplies decimated, and conflicts born of despair. The Paris Agreement gives us a framework to act, but only if we scale up our ambition. And there must be a sense of urgency about bringing the agreement into force, and helping poorer countries leapfrog destructive forms of energy.
So, for the wealthiest countries, a Green Climate Fund should only be the beginning. We need to invest in research and provide market incentives to develop new technologies, and then make these technologies accessible and affordable for poorer countries. And only then can we continue lifting all people up from poverty without condemning our children to a planet beyond their capacity to repair.
So we need new models for the global marketplace, models that are inclusive and sustainable. And in the same way, we need models of governance that are inclusive and accountable to ordinary people.
I recognize not every country in this hall is going to follow the same model of governance. I do not think that America can -- or should -- impose our system of government on other countries. But there appears to be growing contest between authoritarianism and liberalism right now. And I want everybody to understand, I am not neutral in that contest. I believe in a liberal political order -- an order built not just through elections and representative government, but also through respect for human rights and civil society, and independent judiciaries and the rule of law.
I know that some countries, which now recognize the power of free markets, still reject the model of free societies. And perhaps those of us who have been promoting democracy feel somewhat discouraged since the end of the Cold War, because we've learned that liberal democracy will not just wash across the globe in a single wave. It turns out building accountable institutions is hard work -- the work of generations. The gains are often fragile. Sometimes we take one step forward and then two steps back. In countries held together by borders drawn by colonial powers, with ethnic enclaves and tribal divisions, politics and elections can sometimes appear to be a zero-sum game. And so, given the difficulty in forging true democracy in the face of these pressures, it's no surprise that some argue the future favors the strongman, a top-down model, rather than strong, democratic institutions.
But I believe this thinking is wrong. I believe the road of true democracy remains the better path. I believe that in the 21st century, economies can only grow to a certain point until they need to open up -- because entrepreneurs need to access information in order to invent; young people need a global education in order to thrive; independent media needs to check the abuses of power. Without this evolution, ultimately expectations of people will not be met; suppression and stagnation will set in. And history shows that strongmen are then left with two paths -- permanent crackdown, which sparks strife at home, or scapegoating enemies abroad, which can lead to war.
Now, I will admit, my belief that governments serve the individual, and not the other way around, is shaped by America's story. Our nation began with a promise of freedom that applied only to the few. But because of our democratic Constitution, because of our Bill of Rights, because of our ideals, ordinary people were able to organize, and march, and protest, and ultimately, those ideals won out -- opened doors for women and minorities and workers in ways that made our economy more productive and turned our diversity into a strength; that gave innovators the chance to transform every area of human endeavor; that made it possible for someone like me to be elected President of the United States.
So, yes, my views are shaped by the specific experiences of America, but I do not think this story is unique to America. Look at the transformation that's taken place in countries as different as Japan and Chile, Indonesia, Botswana. The countries that have succeeded are ones in which people feel they have a stake.
In Europe, the progress of those countries in the former Soviet bloc that embraced democracy stand in clear contrast to those that did not. After all, the people of Ukraine did not take to the streets because of some plot imposed from abroad. They took to the streets because their leadership was for sale and they had no recourse. They demanded change because they saw life get better for people in the Baltics and in Poland, societies that were more liberal, and democratic, and open than their own.
So those of us who believe in democracy, we need to speak out forcefully, because both the facts and history, I believe, are on our side. That doesn't mean democracies are without flaws. It does mean that the cure for what ails our democracies is greater engagement by our citizens -- not less.
Yes, in America, there is too much money in politics; too much entrenched partisanship; too little participation by citizens, in part because of a patchwork of laws that makes it harder to vote. In Europe, a well-intentioned Brussels often became too isolated from the normal push and pull of national politics. Too often, in capitals, decision-makers have forgotten that democracy needs to be driven by civic engagement from the bottom up, not governance by experts from the top down. And so these are real problems, and as leaders of democratic governments make the case for democracy abroad, we better strive harder to set a better example at home.
Moreover, every country will organize its government informed by centuries of history, and the circumstances of geography, and the deeply held beliefs of its people. So I recognize a traditional society may value unity and cohesion more than a diverse country like my own, which was founded upon what, at the time, was a radical idea -- the idea of the liberty of individual human beings endowed with certain God-given rights. But that does not mean that ordinary people in Asia, or Africa, or the Middle East somehow prefer arbitrary rule that denies them a voice in the decisions that can shape their lives. I believe that spirit is universal. And if any of you doubt the universality of that desire, listen to the voices of young people everywhere who call out for freedom, and dignity, and the opportunity to control their own lives.
This leads me to the third thing we need to do: We must reject any forms of fundamentalism, or racism, or a belief in ethnic superiority that makes our traditional identities irreconcilable with modernity. Instead we need to embrace the tolerance that results from respect of all human beings.
It's a truism that global integration has led to a collision of cultures; trade, migration, the Internet, all these things can challenge and unsettle our most cherished identities. We see liberal societies express opposition when women choose to cover themselves. We see protests responding to Western newspaper cartoons that caricature the Prophet Muhammad. In a world that left the age of empire behind, we see Russia attempting to recover lost glory through force. Asian powers debate competing claims of history. And in Europe and the United States, you see people wrestle with concerns about immigration and changing demographics, and suggesting that somehow people who look different are corrupting the character of our countries.
Now, there's no easy answer for resolving all these social forces, and we must respect the meaning that people draw from their own traditions -- from their religion, from their ethnicity, from their sense of nationhood. But I do not believe progress is possible if our desire to preserve our identities gives way to an impulse to dehumanize or dominate another group. If our religion leads us to persecute those of another faith, if we jail or beat people who are gay, if our traditions lead us to prevent girls from going to school, if we discriminate on the basis of race or tribe or ethnicity, then the fragile bonds of civilization will fray. The world is too small, we are too packed together, for us to be able to resort to those old ways of thinking.
We see this mindset in too many parts of the Middle East. There, so much of the collapse in order has been fueled because leaders sought legitimacy not because of policies or programs but by resorting to persecuting political opposition, or demonizing other religious sects, by narrowing the public space to the mosque, where in too many places perversions of a great faith were tolerated. These forces built up for years, and are now at work helping to fuel both Syria's tragic civil war and the mindless, medieval menace of ISIL.
The mindset of sectarianism, and extremism, and bloodletting, and retribution that has been taking place will not be quickly reversed. And if we are honest, we understand that no external power is going to be able to force different religious communities or ethnic communities to co-exist for long. But I do believe we have to be honest about the nature of these conflicts, and our international community must continue to work with those who seek to build rather than to destroy.
And there is a military component to that. It means being united and relentless in destroying networks like ISIL, which show no respect for human life. But it also means that in a place like Syria, where there's no ultimate military victory to be won, we're going to have to pursue the hard work of diplomacy that aims to stop the violence, and deliver aid to those in need, and support those who pursue a political settlement and can see those who are not like themselves as worthy of dignity and respect.
Across the region's conflicts, we have to insist that all parties recognize a common humanity and that nations end proxy wars that fuel disorder. Because until basic questions are answered about how communities co-exist, the embers of extremism will continue to burn, countless human beings will suffer -- most of all in that region -- but extremism will continue to be exported overseas. And the world is too small for us to simply be able to build a wall and prevent it from affecting our own societies.
And what is true in the Middle East is true for all of us. Surely, religious traditions can be honored and upheld while teaching young people science and math, rather than intolerance. Surely, we can sustain our unique traditions while giving women their full and rightful role in the politics and economics of a nation. Surely, we can rally our nations to solidarity while recognizing equal treatment for all communities -- whether it's a religious minority in Myanmar, or an ethnic minority in Burundi, or a racial minority right here in the United States. And surely, Israelis and Palestinians will be better off if Palestinians reject incitement and recognize the legitimacy of Israel, but Israel recognizes that it cannot permanently occupy and settle Palestinian land. We all have to do better as leaders in tamping down, rather than encouraging, a notion of identity that leads us to diminish others.
And this leads me to the fourth and final thing we need to do, and that is sustain our commitment to international cooperation rooted in the rights and responsibilities of nations.
As President of the United States, I know that for most of human history, power has not been unipolar. The end of the Cold War may have led too many to forget this truth. I've noticed as President that at times, both America's adversaries and some of our allies believe that all problems were either caused by Washington or could be solved by Washington -- and perhaps too many in Washington believed that as well. (Laughter.) But I believe America has been a rare superpower in human history insofar as it has been willing to think beyond narrow self-interest; that while we've made our share of mistakes over these last 25 years -- and I've acknowledged some -- we have strived, sometimes at great sacrifice, to align better our actions with our ideals. And as a consequence, I believe we have been a force for good.
We have secured allies. We've acted to protect the vulnerable. We supported human rights and welcomed scrutiny of our own actions. We've bound our power to international laws and institutions. When we've made mistakes, we've tried to acknowledge them. We have worked to roll back poverty and hunger and disease beyond our borders, not just within our borders.
I'm proud of that. But I also know that we can't do this alone. And I believe that if we're to meet the challenges of this century, we are all going to have to do more to build up international capacity. We cannot escape the prospect of nuclear war unless we all commit to stopping the spread of nuclear weapons and pursuing a world without them.
When Iran agrees to accept constraints on its nuclear program that enhances global security and enhances Iran's ability to work with other nations. On the other hand, when North Korea tests a bomb that endangers all of us. And any country that breaks this basic bargain must face consequences. And those nations with these weapons, like the United States, have a unique responsibility to pursue the path of reducing our stockpiles, and reaffirming basic norms like the commitment to never test them again.
We can't combat a disease like Zika that recognizes no borders -- mosquitos don't respect walls -- unless we make permanent the same urgency that we brought to bear against Ebola -- by strengthening our own systems of public health, by investing in cures and rolling back the root causes of disease, and helping poorer countries develop a public health infrastructure.
We can only eliminate extreme poverty if the sustainable development goals that we have set are more than words on paper. Human ingenuity now gives us the capacity to feed the hungry and give all of our children -- including our girls -- the education that is the foundation for opportunity in our world. But we have to put our money where our mouths are.
And we can only realize the promise of this institution's founding -- to replace the ravages of war with cooperation -- if powerful nations like my own accept constraints. Sometimes I'm criticized in my own country for professing a belief in international norms and multilateral institutions. But I am convinced that in the long run, giving up some freedom of action -- not giving up our ability to protect ourselves or pursue our core interests, but binding ourselves to international rules over the long term -- enhances our security. And I think that's not just true for us.
If Russia continues to interfere in the affairs of its neighbors, it may be popular at home, it may fuel nationalist fervor for a time, but over time it is also going to diminish its stature and make its borders less secure. In the South China Sea, a peaceful resolution of disputes offered by law will mean far greater stability than the militarization of a few rocks and reefs.
We are all stakeholders in this international system, and it calls upon all of us to invest in the success of institutions to which we belong. And the good news is, is that many nations have shown what kind of progress is possible when we make those commitments. Consider what we've accomplished here over the past few years.
Together, we mobilized some 50,000 additional troops for U.N. peacekeeping, making them nimble, better equipped, better prepared to deal with emergencies. Together, we established an Open Government Partnership so that, increasingly, transparency empowers more and more people around the globe. And together, now, we have to open our hearts and do more to help refugees who are desperate for a home.
We should all welcome the pledges of increased assistance that have been made at this General Assembly gathering. I'll be discussing that more this afternoon. But we have to follow through, even when the politics are hard. Because in the eyes of innocent men and women and children who, through no fault of their own, have had to flee everything that they know, everything that they love, we have to have the empathy to see ourselves. We have to imagine what it would be like for our family, for our children, if the unspeakable happened to us. And we should all understand that, ultimately, our world will be more secure if we are prepared to help those in need and the nations who are carrying the largest burden with respect to accommodating these refugees.
There are a lot of nations right now that are doing the right thing. But many nations -- particularly those blessed with wealth and the benefits of geography -- that can do more to offer a hand, even if they also insist that refugees who come to our countries have to do more to adapt to the customs and conventions of the communities that are now providing them a home.
Let me conclude by saying that I recognize history tells a different story than the one that I've talked about here today. There's a much darker and more cynical view of history that we can adopt. Human beings are too often motivated by greed and by power. Big countries for most of history have pushed smaller ones around. Tribes and ethnic groups and nation states have very often found it most convenient to define themselves by what they hate and not just those ideas that bind them together.
Time and again, human beings have believed that they finally arrived at a period of enlightenment only to repeat, then, cycles of conflict and suffering. Perhaps that's our fate. We have to remember that the choices of individual human beings led to repeated world war. But we also have to remember that the choices of individual human beings created a United Nations, so that a war like that would never happen again. Each of us as leaders, each nation can choose to reject those who appeal to our worst impulses and embrace those who appeal to our best. For we have shown that we can choose a better history.
Sitting in a prison cell, a young Martin Luther King, Jr. wrote that, "Human progress never rolls on the wheels of inevitability; it comes through the tireless efforts of men willing to be co-workers with God." And during the course of these eight years, as I've traveled to many of your nations, I have seen that spirit in our young people, who are more educated and more tolerant, and more inclusive and more diverse, and more creative than our generation; who are more empathetic and compassionate towards their fellow human beings than previous generations. And, yes, some of that comes with the idealism of youth. But it also comes with young people's access to information about other peoples and places -- an understanding unique in human history that their future is bound with the fates of other human beings on the other side of the world.
I think of the thousands of health care workers from around the world who volunteered to fight Ebola. I remember the young entrepreneurs I met who are now starting new businesses in Cuba, the parliamentarians who used to be just a few years ago political prisoners in Myanmar. I think of the girls who have braved taunts or violence just to go to school in Afghanistan, and the university students who started programs online to reject the extremism of organizations like ISIL. I draw strength from the young Americans -- entrepreneurs, activists, soldiers, new citizens -- who are remaking our nation once again, who are unconstrained by old habits and old conventions, and unencumbered by what is, but are instead ready to seize what ought to be.
My own family is a made up of the flesh and blood and traditions and cultures and faiths from a lot of different parts of the world -- just as America has been built by immigrants from every shore. And in my own life, in this country, and as President, I have learned that our identities do not have to be defined by putting someone else down, but can be enhanced by lifting somebody else up. They don't have to be defined in opposition to others, but rather by a belief in liberty and equality and justice and fairness.
And the embrace of these principles as universal doesn't weaken my particular pride, my particular love for America -- it strengthens it. My belief that these ideals apply everywhere doesn't lessen my commitment to help those who look like me, or pray as I do, or pledge allegiance to my flag. But my faith in those principles does force me to expand my moral imagination and to recognize that I can best serve my own people, I can best look after my own daughters, by making sure that my actions seek what is right for all people and all children, and your daughters and your sons.
This is what I believe: that all of us can be co-workers with God. And our leadership, and our governments, and this United Nations should reflect this irreducible truth.
Thank you very much."
With less than a week before the first presidential debate, Republican nominee Donald Trump is claiming the system is rigged against him.
Trump told Fox News' Bill O'Reilly that he feels the moderator of the first debate, NBC's Lester Holt, is being pressured to ask him tough questions because "Today Show" host Matt Lauer was criticized for seeming to go easy on Trump in a town hall-type event earlier this month.
"Matt was very tough on me, and he was tough on her (Hillary Clinton). But I think he was equally tough, maybe even tougher on me. And they really hit him because I won that debate," Trump told O'Reilly.
"What they're doing is they're gaming the system, like gaming the ref," he said. "Lester's a professional, but we'll see what happens. I mean, I think it's unfair. I think it's unfair what they're doing, …" Trump said.
Trump and Clinton will have their first debate, organized by the Commission on Presidential Debates, on Monday, Sept. 26 in Hempstead, N.Y.
Meanwhile, the topics for next week's debate were announced Monday. The topics, chosen by Holt, are, "America's Direction," "Achieving Prosperity," and "Securing America," according to a release from the CPD.
The format for the first debate calls for six 15-minute time segments. Two 15-minute segments will focus on each of the topics.
The debate begins at 9 p.m. ET and runs for 90 minutes without commercial interruption.
Debate notes:
The other two debates will be held on Oct. 9 and Oct. 19.
Libertarian Gary Johnson and Jill Stein of the Green Party will not be onstage for the first debate. They failed to make the cut based on their polling results.
Moderators for the second debate are ABC News' Martha Raddatz and CNN's Anderson Cooper. Fox News' Chris Wallace will moderate the third debate.
CBS News' Elaine Quijano will moderate a vice presidential debate between Illinois Gov. Mike Pence and Sen. Tim Kaine, (D-Va.), on Oct. 4.
The debates will take place in:
1st - Hofstra University is hosting a Viewer's Guide to Televised Debates, which will offer tips for viewing the debate critically and provide a guide how to be media literate while watching the presidential debates. (hofstra.edu/Debate).
Vice presidential debate - Longwood University
2nd - Washington University in St. Louis
3rd - University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Before the debate:
Facebook and Google will be providing data to the moderators in the weeks leading up to the debates on what people are searching and saying about the election, the candidates, and the issues. Other technology platforms will be engaged in this effort as well including Google, #CollegeDebate16, and many other social media grassroots organizations.
PBS NewsHour together with technology partner Microsoft have created an interactive, civic education site (WatchTheDebates.org) that allows users to access every general election debate since 1960, screen entire debates or debate highlights and track how candidates have addressed specific issues in the debates over the years. Users can react to the debates and compare their responses with others through a unique interactive experience.
During the Debate:
Facebook, the exclusive social media sponsor for the first and third presidential debates, will be on site at the debate host universities. Members of the media, students, and the campus community will be using Facebook Live to broadcast and show what is happening at the debate site. People on Facebook in the U.S. and around the world will be able to watch these videos live, ask questions and comment with their reactions. Facebook will also have an interactive touch screen to show the conversation on Facebook about the candidates and the issues.
Snapchat will be covering each debate on-site via a "Live Story." These Live Stories will allow users on Snapchat to experience the debates from the many different perspectives of students from the debate host universities, volunteers, media and many others. These compilations of Snaps are designed to encourage the conversation long after each debate is over.
Viewers will also be able to watch live streams of the debates. Some of the websites and platforms that will feature debate live streams are: ABC News, Buzzfeed News, CBS News, CNN, C-SPAN, The Daily Caller, Facebook, Fox News, Hulu, Huffington Post, NBC, PBS, Politico, Telemundo, The Wall Street Journal, Twitter, Univision, Yahoo, YouTube.
Here's a roundup of news trending across the nation and world today.
What to know now:
1. Bombing suspect: The man law enforcement authorities believe placed bombs around New York and New Jersey over the weekend is recovering in a hospital Tuesday after a shootout with police. Ahmad Khan Rahami was taken into custody hours after he was named a suspect in the bombings that injured more than two dozen people. According to police, Rahami became a suspect when a fingerprint was discovered on one of the unexploded devices he is suspected to have set. Rahami is a naturalized U.S. citizen originally from Afghanistan. The investigation into whether he acted alone continues.
2. Presidential vote: Is George H.W. Bush voting for Hillary Clinton come November? According to the Facebook account of Kathleen Townsend, Robert Kennedy's daughter, he is. The post on Townsend's account, which is private, is said to show a photo of Townsend shaking hands with the former president. The caption reads, "The President told me he's voting for Hillary!!" A Bush spokesman responded to the story saying, "The vote President Bush will cast as a private citizen in some 50 days will be just that: a private vote cast in 50 days. He is not commenting on the presidential race in the interim."
3. Carrey being sued: Actor Jim Carrey was sued by his late girlfriend's husband Monday. The suit claims Carrey played a part in the death of Cathriona White. Mark Burton, who was married to White when she died, said he wants to show people that Carrey is not the "grieving good guy," but the person who got prescription drugs under a false name and gave them to White. The coroner ruled White died when she overdosed on prescription drugs on Sept. 28, 2015. White was married to Mark Burton when she was seeing Carrey.
3. Bowl of Skittles policy: Donald Trump Jr. used a bowl of Skittles in a post on Twitter Monday to explain his father's proposed policy on limiting the number of Syrian refugees who would be allowed in the United States. The post read, "If I had a bowl of skittles and I told you just three would kill you, would you take a handful?" Trump Jr. went on to explain, "This image says it all. Let's end the politically correct agenda that doesn't put America first."
4. L'Eggo that Eggo: The Kellogg Company is recalling about 10,000 cases of its Eggo Nutri-Grain Whole Wheat Waffles because they may be contaminated with the bacteria listeria. Kellogg says it has received no reports of illness from the waffles and discovered the possible contamination after routine tests. Only the whole wheat waffles with "Use by" dates of Nov. 21, 2017 and Nov. 22, 2017 are being recalled.
And one more
The son of a Chinese billionaire has purchased his dog eight iPhone 7 phones, CNN is reporting. Coco, an Alaskan malamute who is owned by Wang Sicong, seemed unimpressed as she posed with the phones in a photo for her social media account. Coco may have looked bored with her stash because she is no stranger to Apple technology. She already owns two Apple watches. And a Fendi handbag. Because she can.

France recently became the first country in the world to ban disposable plastic cups and dishes, according to The Associated Press.

The new law, which went into effect last month, is part of the country's efforts to reduce pollution.
Under the law, which was proposed by the Europe Ecologie-Greens Party, producers have until 2020 to make sure that all disposable dishes sold in France are made of biologically sourced materials and can be composted.
The group wanted the ban to be introduced by 2017, but it was delayed because Environment Minister Segolene Royal initially opposed the law, calling it an "antisocial" measure.
According to Les Echos, France currently throws away more than 4.7 billion plastic cups every year, and only 1 percent of those items are recycled.
France enacted a ban on plastic bags in July.

A Norwegian black metal drummer has "accidentally" been elected to his local town council.
The frontman for the band Darkthrone mistakenly agreed to be on a list of backup representatives and assumed that he'd never be called upon. To ensure this, Glyve "Fenriz" Nagell posted a picture of himself holding his cat with the caption, "Please don't vote for me."
Locals loved the low-key campaign, and instead he won a position on the council. He'll have to serve as a backup representative for the next four years and is quite unhappy about it, citing how boring it is and the lack of good pay.

A popular Brazilian actor died while swimming in an area near where he had been recording scenes for a soap opera, authorities said Friday.
>> Read more trending stories
Domingos Montagner, 54, was swimming in the São Francisco River in Brazil with actress co-star Camila Pitanga when a strong current pulled him away and carried him underwater.
Pitanga tried to grab Montagner but was unable to reach him, the Associated Press reported. Pitanga later told police that she was able to swim to a rock.
Pitanga screamed for help, but authorities didn't respond because they thought the noise was a part of filming for a show. She alerted search and rescue teams of the incident after authorities initially didn't take action.
Montagner was found hours later nearly 60 feet below the surface and 1,000 feet from where he was last seen, according to Jose Aparecido Cardoso, director of the state Legal Medical Institute. He was lodged between two rocks, according to rescue crews.
"They thought they had chosen a safe spot to swim, but that is one of the most dangerous areas in the town of Canindé and is usually avoided by locals," police chief Antonio Francisco Filho told O Globo.
Pitanga and Montagner appear in "Velho Chico" ("Old Boy"), Brazil's best-known and most popular soap opera, according to Fox News Latino. The actors had recently finished filming scenes for the show in Canindé, in the state of Sergipe.
On average, one person has drowned every year in Canindé since 2005, BBC reported.
Montagner's funeral was held Saturday in his home town of Sao Paulo. He had been married to actress Luciana Lima for 14 years, and the couple had three children together.
Pitanga wrote on Instagram Sunday, saying, "I have received a sea of love, and this has been extremely important to strengthen me. Eternal gratitude to all of you who are in this chain of love."

There were a flurry of reports on social media Saturday of a hostage situation taking place in Paris.
A church near the Étienne Marcel transit station was being referenced on Twitter as the place where significant police activity was taking place.
An attack alert was issued, but police cleared the area and declared the area safe a short while later.
The initial reports drew a large police response.
France has passed a law to ensure that all plastic cups, cutlery and plates can be composted and are made of biologically sourced materials, the Independent reported.
The law, which takes effect in 2020, is part of the Energy Transition for Green Growth – a plan that will allow France to tackle climate change more effectively.
Pack2Go Europe, a Brussels-based organization representing European packaging manufacturers, says it will keep fighting the law and hopes it doesn't spread to the rest of the continent.
"We are urging the European Commission to do the right thing and to take legal action against France for infringing European law," Pack2go Europe secretary general Eamonn Bates told The Associated Press. "If they don't, we will."

• To evaluate the role of serotonin (5-HT) function In obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), behavioral and biochemical responses to the 5-HT receptor agonist m-chlorophenylpiperazine (MCPP) and the 5-HT precursor tryptophan were examined in healthy subjects and patients with OCD. Baseline prolactin levels and the prolactin rise following MCPP were significantly reduced in female patients compared with female healthy subjects. In contrast, the increase in prolactin level following tryptophan administration was not significantly different between male or female patients with OCD and the respective sex-matched healthy subjects. The prolactin responses to MCPP and tryptophan were both significantly higher in female patients and healthy subjects than in their male counterparts. The cortisol and growth hormone responses to MCPP and tryptophan were similar in the patients and healthy subjects and were not related to gender. The behavioral responses to MCPP or tryptophan were not consistently different between patients and healthy subjects, and neither MCPP nor tryptophan had effects on obsessive or compulsive symptoms. These results lend only partial support to the hypothesis that 5-HT dysfunction may be linked to the pathophysiology of OCD and point to the need for the evaluation of other neurotransmitter systems in future investigations of OCD.

Make up brushes absorb product and skin debris everytime you use them, and therefore create a perfect breeding ground for bacteria.
In addition, as they become clogged with product they become less efficient at ensuring you end up with the look you are after; from flawless complexion to full on goth!
So what is the best way to store and care for your brushes?
There are two ways of storing your brushes which ensures they keep their shape and reduce the risk of damage. Neither way involve chucking your brushes in your make up bag or drawer with the rest of your make up!
The first is to store them in a brush holder or pot - a large mug, pencil pot or jar will work just as well. It needs to be large enough to hold your brushes without crushing the bristles but not so large that the brushes are not supported and rattle about as then they will get scratched. It is also important that your container is not made of metal - as you do not want rusty brushes!
The other way is to store them in a brush roll or brush case. All good brush cases will have slots for the brushes and a protective flap to cover the brush heads - not only does this protect the bristles, it all ensures that product from your brushes doesn't soil your bag.
So what about cleaning?
There are a number of daily brush spritzes / cleaners on the market - Smashbox do one, as do Bare Escentuals, Mac and many other premium brands. These generally contain an antibacterial base and allow you to wipe clean your brushes in between uses. They do not replace the need for shampooing your brushes; they just allow you to go for a little longer between washing, and also enable you to use the same brush for more than one product, as you can spray on and then wipe away product residue on a tissue, thereby reducing product contamination.
All make up brushes need regular washing. How often depends on the purpose of the brush and how often you use them!
Close work eye brushes, such as Smashbox liner #9 and #8 should really be washed every time you use them. Powder eyeshadow brushes can be washed less frequently - once a week would be fine.
All other powder brushes can usually go a week between shampoos. Cream blush, foundation and lip brushes should be washed every 2-3 days.
So what is the best way to wash them?
Well - this is the way I do it
Lay a soft towel over a chest of drawers or dressing table - somewhere that you can lay your clean brushes down to dry without risk of damage from the cat jumping up or you dropping stuff on them etc
Get all your brushes together ready
Run a bowl of warm water and have some good quality liquid soap (I use l'occitane) or a gentle baby shampoo - (depending on the quality of brushes you have, remember that you are in essence washing 'hair').
Dip the head of the brush in the clean water - be very careful not to immerse the whole brush in water - you do not want to get any water where the ferrule (the metal part of the brush) joins the wooden handle, as that can seep into the wood and cause it to rot.
Gently work some of the shampoo into the brush - foundation brushes and cream products will feel greasy and will need to be thoroughly massaged to ensure the shampoo is worked all the way through.
Rinse in the water and repeat if necessary.
Finally rinse under clean running water checking to make sure the water runs clear.
The way you do this is crucial to ensure that your brush retains it shape.
Once you are happy that you brush is clean, gently shake it to remove excess water then, holding the handle of the brush in one hand, gently pull the bristles back into the required shape using your thumb and index finger.
Powder brushes really benefit from being pulled through the circle made by your thumb and index finger. Smaller brushes can simply be pressed between the pad of yout thumb and your index fingertip. In gently pulling the bristles in this way, you remove the excess water and ensure that the brush retains it shape.
Don't store your brushes upright to dry as again, this can cause water to pool and seep into the wood. Lie them flat on your towel - yes...the one you prepared earlier (I have always wanted to say that!). Lie them in such a way that the head overhangs the surface thereby allowing air to circulate.
Your brushes should then dry quickly and naturally; in the correct shape. Soft and fluffy (for powder brushes) and compacted and firm for your cream application brushes. Once dry, give the handles a quick polish with the towel, before storing them as described above.
Cared for in this way, your brushes should give you years of service - and look and more importantly feel, as good as when you bought them.

It was wonderful to listen to Nora Ephron tell her own story. Sad to have lost this wonderful writer, but nice to hear her voice one more time.
Her rant against egg white omelettes!
"Elegant (as always)"
Even when she is writing about mundane daily lie topics, Norah Ephron makes them more- more interesting, have more meaning and usually more fun. Maybe because her life has been so different from mine, I like being transported into Ms Ephron's day to day world.
"A Huge Disappointment after I Feel Bad About My Ne"
This book isn't at all like I Feel Bad About My Neck, it starts with how she forgets everything, but she remembers her early years in boring detail.
"Loved this."
Feel like I miss her although I only know her through her stories. So funny and relatable, even with her exciting life. Thoroughly enjoyed hearing about her life too.
"I feel like I spent time with my best friend"
I'm so glad Nora was born and I will always be a little sad she's gone. It goes to show how a piece of your heart can be given away to someone who you've never met.
"Loved it."
If you are a woman in your 60's, it is a humerous look at life.
"Essays to Enjoy"
Nora Ephron reads several of her essays. I laughed out loud during a few while quietly enjoying others. Her narration lacks expression, which sometimes added to the humor, sometimes was flat. She expressed herself beautifully and it was a worthwhile listen.
"A classic voice, great breadth of material"
I am a 33 year old business woman, and it was lovely to listen to stories of a pioneer career woman like Nora Ephron tell her tales of current and past conquests and misadventures.
Her intonation can be a little bizarre or redundant, but I always love hearing a writer read their own work. You believe the words more.
"It wasn't long enough!"
I just didn't want this book to end. I love Nora's stories and listening to her read them is just an absolute joy. I am sorry that we will no longer get to hear her voice. If you've liked her other non-fiction books, you should enjoy this one just as much.
"Love Nora Ephron"
It's great to hear her voice, with, and perspective. I was hoping it would sound more conversational than necessarily read from a book, since its her personal thoughts, but still very enjoyable.

"A fascinating and unique tale in an alternate reality where being human is a hindrance. Kit Whitfield has created an astonishing read."
–Sherrilyn Kenyon, author of the Dark-Hunter series
"Kit Whitfield has created a unique and powerful twist on the werewolf mythos, an eloquent parable about the profound effects of prejudice and violence on both perpetrator and victim. Benighted will leave you thinking long after you've turned the last page."
–Susan Krinard, author of Touch of the Wolf
It is a world much like our own, with one deadly difference: ninety-nine percent of the population is lycanthropic. When the full moon rises, humans transform into lunes, bloodthirsty beasts who cannot be reasoned with or tamed. Those few born unable to change are disparagingly known as barebacks, and live as victims of prejudice and oppression. All too often, they are targets of savage mauling and death by lunes who break the law to roam free on full-moon nights.
Twenty something bareback Lola Galley is already a veteran of the Department for the Ongoing Regulation of Lycanthropic Activities. When her friend loses a hand to a marauding lune, then is murdered before the attacker is brought to trial, Lola is desperate to see justice prevail. But the truth is seldom simple–and Lola may not like the shocking answers she uncovers.
"An impressive debut, Benighted is a well-written and well-thought-out examination of prejudice as seen through the lens of the werewolf novel."
–Tananarive Due, author of Joplin's Ghost

Read an Excerpt
The story is a simple one. According to Ellaway, his car broke down, he was lost, and was trying to find a shelter when he started furring up. He shouldn't really have failed to find one—there are always government lock-ups within walking distance; you should be able to reach at least one between dusk and moonrise. At least, that's the theory; like most of our theories, it's prettier than the real world. Winos are the biggest problem since they're too drunk to make their way, but this guy's story might be true, manicured nails and all. It happens every month. Then again, it might not. It's not much of a story. And the fact remains that when Johnny tried to round him up, Ellaway bit his hand off at the wrist. Most lunes don't do that. They go for you; of course they do. We've all got scars. There's a deep slash running up the inside of my left forearm from my first dogcatch; a heavy dent in one of my hips from when I was twenty-two; a map of lacerations around my calves—and I'm a good catcher, I get mauled less than most. But breaking bone is something more. Lunes aren't usually savage enough to hurt you that badly before you get them tranked. They all go for you, but they aren't all the same. It depends what kind of person they are. This man has to have something in him to make him capable of mauling my friend.
His face looks like a college kid's, though I know he's a few years older. A boy who works in the financial district, which means he's paid well, better than I am. He'll be paying me himself on this one, and then I can pay my bills. I study him with some hope, and notice how differently he sits from the pro bono cases I usually get. He's crouched forward, watching me. Maybe he'll have better manners than usual. I light a cigarette, offer him one to be polite. To my surprise, he takes it. Lycos don't usually smoke.
"So," I say, "you realize the charges are serious. Your best hope is in proving that you tried to get to a lock-up but couldn't."
"I did." He says this as if it were obvious. My hopes of a courteous client slip a notch.
I sigh. "I don't suppose you remember the actual crime?"
He gives me a look: I've asked a foolish question and called what he did a crime. "Of course not. I can't even identify the man."
I flip a picture across the desk. "His name is Johnny Marcos. He's got a wife and three kids, and since you took his hand off he's on disability and worried sick about their education. He's a very decent man."
"You know him?" My client looks surprised. "I thought legal advisers weren't meant to take cases where they're personally involved."
Bright boy. "This is DORLA, Mr. Ellaway. We all know each other. There's only a few thousand of us. It's a small world. And since we all do—" I stop myself from saying dogcatching "—full-moon duties sometimes, that could have been any of us. And since you'll get a non-lyco judge, you're going to have to work hard at convincing us it wasn't your fault." I don't mention how well I know Johnny; he doesn't need to know that. Three days before Christmas, and this happened to him.
"Why can't I have a normal court? Any bareback judge is going to be prejudiced against me."
Bareback, well, there we are. He's no better mannered than any of the tramps I usually get. I give my illusion about the gentlemanliness of the monied classes a little kiss and send it on its way. "Like I said, Mr. Ellaway, this is the Department for the Ongoing Regulation of Lycanthropic Activity, and we handle our own affairs." I get out a map of the area. "Now, you say you were around here when your car broke down, yes? And you started walking east. There's two lockups within reach."
He sucks on the cigarette I gave him. "I told you, I don't know the area."
"You should know enough to stick to the main roads. You would have come to a shelter if you had."
He shrugs, and lounges back, his legs asplay. I take out another file. "I've got your record here. Dangerous driving, twice, driving over the legal limit, and possession of narcotic substances. I have to tell you, Mr. Ellaway, it doesn't look good."
"They dropped the narcotics charge." He drops ash on my floor.
"Were you using anything that night?"
"Drugs are illegal." He looks amused at himself.
"How about a little nicotine withdrawal? Cross because you couldn't fit a cigarette in your jaws?"
"Hey, hey." He sits up, waving his hand. "I didn't come here to be accused. I'm your client, you know?"
I run my hands through my hair. "Mr. Ellaway, I'm just trying to tell you the kind of things they'll ask you in court. You've crippled a man for life. If you can prove it wasn't your fault you were out, then you'll get off. And if you can't, then it's negligence, grievous bodily harm, the works, and you are looking at years. Years, Mr. Ellaway. Judges don't take kindly to this sort of thing."
He shrugs again.
The telephone rings. "Excuse me," I say, and pick it up. "Hello?"
"Lola?" It's Josie. She's been working reception ever since she let two lunes get away in one night. "Lo, I got a call from your sister. She says she's gone into labor and could you go to the hospital. She's at St. Veronica's."
My throat jumps a little. "I'll get on it. Thanks, Josie." I turn to Ellaway, who is still dropping ash on my floor. "Mr. Ellaway, I have to go. I'll see you again tomorrow, and I want you to think about what I've said. I need as many details as possible, so remember everything you can. Now, good morning."
"Good morning." His handshake cracks the bones in my knuckles, and he's still sitting in the chair.
"Mr. Ellaway, you can go now."
"Oh. Right. I'll see you tomorrow." He gets up and swings out of the room.
"And could you close the—" He disappears, leaving the door wide open. I express a few opinions under my breath, and go to close it, making myself a promise to bill Ellaway for every possible expense I can think of. I'll bill him for every cup of coffee I drink as long as I'm working for him. I'll get it hand-ground, I'll add cream. The thought cheers me a little.
I call my boss and explain. "Is it all right if I take the day off? I'll work overtime next week."
"A baby." His voice sounds reflective, not that it ever sounds any different. "Well, off you go. You can see if it turns out to be one of ours."
I can't tell if this is a joke, so I laugh just in case. I get my coat and squeeze out of my little office. On the way past reception, a hand comes down on my shoulder.
"Miss Lola May, you save my life." It's Jerry, one of my winos, being herded in by my friend Ally. Jerry smells like a trash can, which means he's fallen off the wagon again. "Wanna thank you frall your good legal advice, Lola May, you're good legal vice lady."
"Hey, Jerry," I say. "What are you doing here?"
"Got stuck out last moonite. Wasn't my fault, tried to shelter, you know always try. Don't mind shelters, quite like them ashually. Can't always find my way, not my fault if I try, Lola May. This guy says I pissed on him when he tried collar me but would I do that? Wouldn't. You know I'm nice guy, Lola May." He rocks back and forth, his eyes wide like a kid's. "Think they'll sue me for cleaning bill, you gotta help me, Lola May. Don't wanna pay cleaning bill. Not mon—not mada—mada money. Tell 'em I wouldn't ever piss on a guy juss doing his job."
I've seen him worse than this: he's pretty bad, but his sense of humor hasn't drowned out yet. He's been able to go out and get drunk again, so he can't have been locked up in the cells all this time. Maybe this won't be too rough. "What's he in for?" I ask Ally, who's standing a little back from his charge.
"Moon loitering. This is the twelfth time, he's not doing well."
"No cleaning bill?" says Jerry, swiveling his head.
"Jerry," I say, "what happened to your AA program?"
"M'wife left me," he says.
"Yeah? Was that before or after you fell off the wagon?"
"Ohh Lola May you gon break my heart. You're hard woman, Lola May."
My feet are starting to itch. "Look, Ally, I'll take this case if you can hold it over till tomorrow, he's one of my regulars."
"Lucky you."
"He's harmless."
"I," Jerry declares, "am a gentleman. Do my best."
"Can you just put it on hold for a day?"
"I think I'll put him in the lock-ups to dry out," Ally says, grinning.
"Don't wanna sleep on straw. Lola May, tell him I don wanta sleep on straw!" Jerry wails as Ally hustles him down the corridor.
I turn to head out, and that's when I see there's a man on the chairs who's been watching the whole exchange. His hair sticks up in tufts, his eyebrows are trained into fierce peaks. He sits with his lips a little apart, baring his teeth. The effect is meant to be vulpine, but it looks more like a bad photograph.
"Excuse me," I say.
The man doesn't take his eyes off me.
"Are you being seen?"
He turns his head aside, slowly, and spits through his teeth onto the floor. Then he looks back at me.
"Fucking skins," he says.

Fun,but her second novel,in great waters us much better , still a fun read tho
I really enjoyed this book because the author did not spend too much time on the surroundings. When I read a book, write a story, do not paint me a picture of the surroundings.
On an alternate Earth almost identical to ours except for one major difference. Ninety-nine percent of the population is lycos who change at the full moon into mindless ravaging beasts. The other one percent is norms that are considered genetic freaks and these ¿barebacks¿ (a racist insult) all work for the Department for the Ongoing Regulation of Lycanthropic Activity (DORLA). Their job is to protect the Lycos from each other or barebacks and represent them if their crimes are so severe they end up in the courts. --- Lila Galley, a norm who works for DORLA, is devastated when her friend and fellow worker Johnny loses his hand to a lycos attack. Later on he is murdered and the person under scrutiny is Mr. Ellaway woo Lola is supposed to defend. On a search for information with her trainee Marty, three werewolves attack Lola and him. They arrest the Lycos for attempted murder. They roughly question the perp Darrel Seligmann who later escapes. One of the people who questioned him is killed with a silver bullet, the same kind of bullet that killed Johnny. Lila elects to stay on the job while those who questioned the perp elect to be relocated until the danger is over. Moving in with her lycos boyfriend, Lila realizes her life is in danger and she could be killed if she doesn¿t find Seligmann soon and figure the link between the trainee and Johnny. --- Kit Whitfield has written a great urban fantasy because of her brilliant world-building skills that create a lycanthropic culture where people who can not change into wolf form are considered freaks. The ¿barebacks¿ work for the Lycos in a realm where there is much prejudice between the two groups. The lycos look down on barebacks who are second class citizens who work for the lycos. The protagonist struggles to accept her place in this world where she is in the abyss of intense prejudice. --- Harriet Klausner
