I have been disappointed by the last few Grisham books. However, the reviews that stated that "Grisham was back" convinced me to give him another try. Well, I'm done with him -- for good this time.
The "author's note" at the end of the book says that "this was a work of fiction, more so than in other cases" because he fully admits that NO research went into the writing of this novel. Well, Mr. Grisham, it shows. The plot is totally unbelievable. I don't mind that -- as long as the implausibility doesn't make the story stupid, which happens here. The story is, indeed, stupid.
The main character -- a lawyer who was unjustly imprisoned (for circumstances under which NO ONE would have EVER been imprisoned) manages to get himself set free by convincing the FBI that he knows who killed a federal judge. How does he know this? Well, while the murderer was in prison he had confided in the main character that he INTENDED to kill the judge as soon as he got out. And the FBI goes along. Er...yeah.
That, by the way, is the entire first half of the book. Nothing else happens. If you read the publisher's review, you might as well skip to the second half of the download. There, the story gets even more ridiculous. Diverting into what appears to be another (equally stupid) story. A guy with 8 million dollars stashed somewhere chooses to follow our main character on a ridiculous trip merely because he is lured by the promise of South Beach and girls. Er, I think that with $8 million dollars he could have gone to South Beach on his own...
The two stories do merge in the end, but who cares? Mr. Grisham extends what could have been a short story into a very BORING novel, full of characters who are two-dimensional and unlikeable. Even the main character seems to be a jerk who drinks copiously and leaves behind his kid, father, and family after two sentences of mild regret.
The guy who wrote The Firm and some of the other early works is no more. That's too bad. But I wasted a credit and several hours. My advice: pass on this one. It will probably be an OK movie if the right director takes it on -- and hires a decent screenwriter.
"Yet another excellent depiction of human nature"
I had just finished reading "The Last Anniversary" and at first thought "Big Little Lies" gave away too much, too early...Duped, of course, by Ms. Moriarty. There are twists and turns and surprises all the way along. At the bottom, of course, are the author's incredible character depictions. Her knowledge of the best and worst human nature has to offer. These people are REAL. You have met them (or perhaps you ARE them). And she will make you laugh and cry at the smallness (and largeness) of day-to-day life. Towards the end, you are glued to the story--told expertly, by the way, from many points of view in a way that is particularly suited for an audiobook in the hands (voice?) of Caroline Lee.
"Too many witticisms, too little substance"
I was looking forward to this novel because of the great reviews it seemed to be getting everywhere. Someone (I think in People magazine) compared it to "Gone Girl" (clearly, someone who had not read Gone Girl).
There is very, very little here except one witty, cutting remark after another from the protagonist. And it gets old very, very quickly--particularly because there is absolutely nothing to back it up: no character development (the main character herself is totally unbelievable and it only gets worse with the slew of secondary people...most never progress past the stereotype); no verisimilitude (The plot is based on this girl's quest for her mother's killer. She's released from prison after serving 10 years for the murder...and immediately follows the most implausible of leads EVER -- and I mean EVER -- and, of course, because this book is awful, the lead pans off); no resolution (you keep waiting for some twist to happen...but, no...it's just one runaway train of a plot); no talent (sorry, Ms. Little).
Perhaps if I had not been expecting so much (or if I was a 16-year-old looking for a very light 'mystery' to read on the beach), I would have given it three stars. As it was, I had to force myself to finish it.
The narrator compounds the issue. I found her voice grating and her never-changing inflection (perhaps unavoidable because she had nothing to work on) makes the lines seem even triter than they are.
"Excellent Moriarty"
I wondered about this book because it was written in 2005 and not turned into an audiobook until 2014 (timed with the release of the author's new novel). Thought perhaps audiobooks had ignored it because it was not a very good example of the author's work...and almost ignored it myself. So glad I did not! Like in every Moriarty novel, the story is populated with everyday people who have to deal with highly unusual circumstances (two sisters find an abandoned baby and raise it as their own; an old lady leaves her island house to her grandson's ex-girlfriend...). Moriarty uses her unbelievable knowledge of human nature to make all the characters come to life with wit and compassion--and you feel like you know each and every one. The ending of all her novels are always a little sad simply because you have to say good-bye to the 'people' in them.
"Entertaining enough"
The narrator does not do the story any favors. His voice is too monotonous, his pauses too long.
The story itself is not great. A tad too unbelievable. A tad too predictable. A tad too "convenient" in terms of events happening right when they had to.
AND YET, I give it four stars. It kept me entertained to the end. Sometimes, that's exactly what you want.
This is my first Margolin book and I might give another a try.
"Deeply human"
When I started listening to this story, I realized it was the wrong novel for me at this particular time. I needed something lighter. I kept telling myself I'd stop listening and go back to it at another time...but the writing kept me hooked. Something was going on here that went beyond the two children whose day-to-day lives Doerr was describing.
I am so glad I kept listening. The story builds and builds. The two children's lives connect in magical ways...and towards the last third of the novel, you find yourself holding your breath.
I don't want to give anything away. Does it have a happy ending? Does it have a sad ending? You'll have to listen for yourselves. I highly recommend the experience. It couldn't be more real, or human.
Can't wait for Mr. Doerr's next novel.
"A bit long-winded, but entertaining nevertheless"
It takes a while for the story to get going because, for a very long time, it seems like you're reading two books. There's a brutal homicide and a woman who wakes up from a seven-year coma...and for almost a third of the novel, the two stories are only connected by the investigator. Then the two stories come together and the book becomes a lot more interesting. Could have been shorter, but it was still entertaining. So much so that I was hooked by the preview of the second in the series and am in the process of downloading it as I write this review.
A dark and painful tale of misery and lives-gone-horribly-wrong, told exquisitely by an author in full control of his audience (and narrated by the perfect voice). I loved it!
The tragic events of a day long ago when the two protagonists were 11 years old are revealed chronologically, and interspersed with what's happening in the present day, when a dreadful coincidence brings the two women together as adults. It's hard to say what's more hypnotic: the dreadful events that are unfolding, or to see the paths their two lives took as a result of that one day in their childhood. I could not tear my eyes (ears?) away. And can't wait for more novels by this author.
To call this is one of the best 'zombie' books I have ever read (I do like zombie books) would be to make it much smaller than it is. Sure, there are zombies, but this book is about human interactions--about humanity. Without giving any of the great turns and twists away, I have to say that the character development is absolutely brilliant. I can't recall a single instance in the book where a character went off-course in an unexpected way--those who changed (and many did) changed because they were reacting to something outside themselves (and the changes were powerful and moving); those who didn't change didn't change because nothing could have made them do so. You come to know each one of them well, especially Madeleine--the little girl at the center of the story. And what a story it is! M.R. Carey has crafted a tightly knit plot that will keep you at the edge or your seat (or wherever you happen to be while you listen) from start to finish. This was one of those audiobooks that I couldn't wait to get back to. Finty Williams is PERFECT for the narrator. Her rendition of little Madeleine's voice is particularly great (conveying innocence without ever being saccharine). Loved it! Can't wait for this author's next novel.
"Very Bad Writing"
I plodded through 5 hours of the first-person 'narrative,' thinking that any minute the story would 'start,' but simply couldn't take it anymore. Zero character development. Zero originality (I like these sorts of fantasies so the plot seemed to have promise when I read the publisher's summary, but the characters behave along extremely stereotypical lines). The combination made for a very boring listen. I am planning to get my credit back.
Skip this one and read "Enchantment" by Orson Scott Card.
"Should have been three and a half stars"
The book is really two stories (a terrorist's plot and a murder mystery) that are force-fitted into one novel through a very implausible connection. That said, both stories are actually quite clever so it keeps your interest from beginning to end--a feat given the length of the book. In fact, I would say Hayes' ability as a storyteller is both the book's salvation and it's biggest problem. He keeps digressing into sub-plots (his childhood, the cop's past bravery, etc., etc....A problem (it seems that he can't help himself), but since all the stories are told well you almost don't mind. The excellent narration by Christophre Ragland helps.

Wow! That's what my husband and I said after this tour. We absolutely loved the experience. The crew was fun, friendly, and very good at ensuring we were safe and had a good time. It sounds a little frightening, but it is really beautiful to watch the sharks and they don't even know you are there.
Had a wonderful time. Everything was as promised.

Up a goal and a man at home, the San Jose Earthquakes had no excuse not to take all three points, even if they were playing Real Salt Lake. But despite being up a man, they allowed Salt Lake to score an equalizer. It looked like it would be even worse when they got to play the last 21 minutes against nine men after RSL was shown a second red card and the Quakes couldn't score. Once stoppage time began, though, San Jose finally found an answer, scoring twice to move atop the Western Conference with a 3-1 win.
The Quakes had chances in the early going. Jason Hernandez headed over the bar from close range and Khari Stephenson hit the bar another time, but when Fabian Espindola was sent off for a two-footed challenge in the 29th minute is when things really started to go the way of the home side.
Stephenson came close to scoring twice on free kicks, stinging the palms of Nick RImando on one occasion and forcing him to push the ball over the bar on another. Just before the half, the midfielder finally did beat Rimando, getting on the end of a cross. He nodded the ball down and when it bounced up, Rimando was able to get a hand to it, but not enough of one to keep it out of the goal.
At halftime, the most popular question was "how many will San Jose win by", not "will San Jose win." That looked like it might be foolish because Kyle Beckerman scored a brilliant goal just after the break to get the visitors even. A run from deep saw him going at the Quakes defense without support, but he danced past one defender who went to ground and cut past another to leave himself a simple finish. Salt Lake was even and San Jose was stunned.
Still up a man, San Jose kept the pressure on Salt Lake, but they just couldn't find a goal. Chris Wondolowski just missed the frame on one occasion and they looked unsure how to attack on others.
Salt Lak gave San Jose more hope in the 69th minute when Steven Lenhart got on the other side of Jamison Olave, forcing the defender to take Lenhart down. The referee ruled it to be a denial of a goalscoring opportunity and once he made that decision, he had to send Olave off.
As the 90th minute hit, the Quakes looked destined for a horribly disappointing draw, but in the 92nd minute, Steven Beitashour fed Simon Dawkins for the go-ahead goal. A minute late, Wondolowski scored for the league-leading eighth time this season to put a bow on things as San Jose avoided an awful draw and instead picked up a key win.

I want to thank everybody who has supported me in the making of this series, friends, VA's, music artists, Newgrounds itself and you, the viewer, hope you enjoyed this series as much as I did making it!
Don't forget to check the extra's for a little bit of extra animation!
Thanks again and sorry for the awful delay! (this thing was supposed to be submitted months ago). Enjoy!

Oda_nabunga If you watched the whole series then you should know its because of the XV Virus (At the beginning) It only infects humans and Omega is Part Human. so yeah.
I ultimately think that this is one of the best continuing series I have seen on the internet. It has loads of bloody violence, good story, great characters, and some of the most awesome weapons I have ever seriously, keep up the good work!
thats real epic end but why omega is dead ? :[
Saying that this is the best movie on NG is not enough for how epic this is.

I can see a use for that, certainly, but it lacks the context I so love about spacemonger. It's like viewing a list of states and cities rather than a globe.

Questions & Answers
Soleus Air Table Fan
I love this fan!
JOSEPH from SAINT LOUIS, MO– Verified Buyer
Works well in my kitchen as it moves air through the window. I recommend this fan to people who as well want to move air through a window.
Small and quiet
Anna from Portland, OR– Verified Buyer
This fan is perfect for sitting in my window, but leaving enough room for my cat. And the soft rubber blades make me less concerned about leaving it on around my pet.
Easy to clean!
Pi from NB
I use this fan to circulate the air around indoor plants. Fairly quiet fan blades which blow air gently and are very easy to clean. Cons are: There is only one speed and there is no angle adjustment.
Love this fan!
John from Virginia– Verified Buyer
I have tried a number of small fans and this is the first one that I am truly satisfied with. It is very, very quiet (my first priority) and produces a nice "breeze". It is perfect for improving air circulation in a good sized room, without feeling like you are in a wind tunnel. The design is modern and seems to be well-made. The only complaint I would have is that the rubber feet tend to come loose, and I have had to re-glue them on the two fans I perchased. It only has one motor speed, but it seems to be the perfect speed for proper air movement and quiet operation.

Labor force participation rate, welcome back to 1978
**Written by Doug Powers
Put on some bell bottoms, crank up a Bee Gees album and pop open a can of Billy Beer, because we're back in 1978.
The White House will be spin the unemployment rate drop to 6.7 percent as great news, but a good deal of the drop is due to the fact that another 374,000 people dropped out of the labor force in December. The labor force participation rate is back to 1978 levels (graph via Zero Hedge):
The way the government calculates jobless numbers, the only way to get the unemployment rate to zero percent would be for every single working American to quit his or her job and never look for another.
Ed Morrissey at Hot Air has a good roundup of the latest numbers here.

I figure if the North Koreans are looking for an excuse to launch a provocation they will find one regardless of whether there is a Christmas tree on the DMZ or not:
It's been an annual ritual for South Korea to light a giant Christmas tree near the border with North Korea, but it will remain dark this year as Seoul takes a cautious approach so as not to provoke the communist state undergoing political upheaval.
Ahead of Christmas Day, several South Korean churches asked for the government's approval to light a Christmas tree on top of a 165-meter hill called Aegibong near the western section of the inter-Korean border, but the defense ministry decided to turn down their request, a senior ministry official said Friday.
The decision comes a day after North Korea has threatened to strike South Korea in anger over a recent Seoul rally condemning North Korean leader Kim Jong-un for his reign of terror. [Yonhap]

Yellow Springs, ...
I chose to use the nightgown pattern from Amy Brickman's Vintage Notions, but adapt it for a little girl as I no longer have the figure for that styles! I was also inspired by the waist detail of slip 2 on page 46 of Vintage Notions. I loved the way the gathered skirt doesn't go all the way around, but is still cut in one piece with the bodice. In fact, this whole dress has only four pattern pieces: dress front (including front skirt), bodice back, skirt back and pockets. The sleeves are cut in one with the bodice, the way the nightgown pattern does it. The waist band is cut from bias tape (and lined on the inside with the same.) The flowers were appliqued bias tape (another idea from Vintage Notions, and one I'll use for other things.) The dress has a keyhole opening at the back which fastens with a button and loop, to make it easy to slip over the head.
Special thanks to my 2 1/2 year old model, Raina!
Quilting cotton, bias tape (two widths), and vintage buttons.

Run and don't stop until you reach safety, such as a building with doors and windows that close."

Psychopaths may not suffer from a mental disorder
It's been long thought that psychopaths suffer from a mental disorder, but a new Queen's University-led study casts doubt on this idea.
Historically, psychopaths – people who are uncaring about others, extreme risk-takers, and often commit strings of violent crimes – were thought to be mentally disordered.
However, a study led by Queen's University postdoctoral fellow Daniel Krupp supports more recent thinking, from the perspective of evolutionary psychology, that psychopaths may not be disordered after all. Rather, psychopathy may have evolved to exploit others.
Mental disorders pose an increased risk that people will hurt their kin, but evolutionary theory predicts that mentally healthy people will tend to avoid hurting their genetic relatives. The Queen's-led study examined 289 cases of violent offenders at a mental health centre in Ontario. Evidence from the study indicates that offenders with a greater degree of psychopathy were actually less likely to hurt their genetic relatives than those with a lesser degree of psychopathy.
"It's a counterintuitive and surprising finding, considering the impulsive and violent nature of psychopaths, who also engage in ruthlessly selfish behavior," Dr. Krupp says. "But it makes sense in the light of evolutionary theory: individuals who have evolved to exploit others should nonetheless avoid hurting their relatives, because those relatives also carry copies of their genes."
The study builds on previous work showing that psychopaths unexpectedly function quite well in society. If they were mentally disordered, we would expect them to have neurological problems, serious disorders like schizophrenia, difficulty interacting with others, problems of physical development, and fewer children.
However, previous studies have shown that psychopaths have normal intelligence, are not likely to have other significant mental issues, are experts at reading and exploiting others, have healthy physical development, and have as many children as others.
Dr. Krupp points out that these findings don't let psychopaths off the hook for their actions. "That psychopaths don't suffer from a mental disorder is no excuse. In a sense, they should be considered more responsible for their conduct than someone with a disorder."
The study was funded by Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.
The study is published in the latest issue of Frontiers in Psychology.

AS PART OF A RESCUE package from the Dutch government in 2008, ING was required to shed its insurance and asset-management business. Its plan to spin off ING U.S. was approved by the European Commission last year. The shares came public on May 1 at $19.50. ING still holds 75% of ING U.S.
ING CEO Jan Hommen called the forced sale of ING U.S. "significant destruction of capital." Jock Fistick/Bloomberg News
The forced sale of the U.S. life-insurance assets wasn't favored by ING Groep CEO Jan Hommen, who called it "significant destruction of capital" at the company's recent annual meeting. ING Groep is required to reduce its stake in ING U.S. to 50% by year-end 2014 and be out of it completely by Dec. 31, 2016.
Spinoff & Reorg Profiles analyst Bill Mitchell recommended ING immediately after it went public, below the anticipated range of $21 to $24 a share. He wrote that his bullish call was a rarity for "a promoted public offering. More often than not, IPOs are a bad deal, due to asymmetric information, moral hazard, face-ripping underwriters....We make an exception...because VOYA looks cheap; we believe that it looks cheap because the parent is in a hurry to satisfy EU regulators with a breakup."
Mitchell says, "It's so cheap that you can overlook its visible flaws." The flaws mainly are on the life-insurance side, including variable annuities.
Spin-Off Research thinks the stock is worth $31.50.
It could be worth even more in an acquisition. With a market value of $6 billion, it would be easily digestible for a large insurer.
In its prospectus, ING noted that it has 30 projects across the company to boost returns and that its goal is to lift its "operating return on capital from our ongoing business" to 10%-11% by 2016 from 7.2% last year.
The Bottom Line
With complex financials and concerns about its variable annuities, ING U.S. trades at a deep discount. Shares could rise 30%—or more in a takeover.
ING's financials are tough to assess, due to a headache-inducing 522-page IPO prospectus that carried multiple definitions of profits, arcane life-insurance terms, and nonstandard financial measures, like "operating return on capital from ongoing operations," as well as the muddying effect of hedging gains and losses related to the closed block of annuities.
ING U.S. said in the prospectus that it expected to earn about $280 million from its core operations in the first quarter; complete results are expected on May 23. Annualize that and make an assumption on taxes and corporate expenses, and the annual earnings power appears to be $2.50 a share. The company declined to comment.

CALLING ITSELF AMERICA'S Retirement Company, ING U.S. has a retirement-services unit that administered $214 billion of assets on Dec. 31, 2012, and managed $117 billion. Focused on small to midsize companies and government entities, it covers five million plan participants. It also manages $22 billion in retail mutual funds. Retirement services and investment management account for about 70% of operating profits.
The company's millstone is $42.5 billion of older variable annuities. These investment products, with attractive features involving death benefits and guaranteed returns, were sold to individuals. Those guarantees came back to haunt insurers when the bottom fell out of the stock market, and insurance regulators and the rating agencies required that sizable reserves be set aside against these policies.
ING and some other insurers have segregated pre-2009 variable annuities into so-called closed blocks, assigned reserves to cover potential guarantees, and have sought to hedge market risk. ING U.S.'s $6 billion reserve, plus hedges, seems adequate, especially with the stock market on the rise.
All of the baggage associated with ING U.S. masks a healthy core business, plus a management team determined to improve returns. This may create a good investment story given the discounted price of ING U.S. shares.

We were in the sacred lake village of Pushkar in India when my world took quite a fascinating turn.
It had been a big day. Starting out with my 'gay husband' Farrel and I waking up at the crack of dawn to watch the sunrise over the desert and doing yoga at the hilltop temple.
The same day he kicked a dog and experienced 'bad dog karma' (story here).
While witnessing the golden glow light up the desert town, I spoke to a boy who was selling precious stone jewellery and had my eye on the one around his neck hanging from a black piece of cord.
"It's turquoise - my birthstone" I said, admiring it. "When's your birthday?" I asked expecting it to fall in December, like mine, to justify him wearing it.
"I don't know." he said doing the notorious Indian neck wiggle that I was still yet to master.
"Well perhaps it is in December too" I joked. Smiling at this sweet boy who'd struck a little cord in my heart as I wondered how odd it must feel to not know your own birthday.
"You want to buy?" he offered.
So I did. Of course I did.
As we made our way down the hill, Farrel and I decided to freestyle our day. This meant not spending it together.
Farrel - on a short 3 week trip on his way to Israel - was moving at a different pace to me and despite my sloth-like grace being to a spacious rhythm I enjoyed moving to, Farrel was on a holiday tick box campaign and didn't want to miss a thing.
So we arranged a meeting point for that evening and freestyled our day solo.
Firstly, as I had done every morning since arriving, I visited my "sound master". My sound master was a Kashmiri gentleman tucked behind a shop selling beautiful handmade singing bowls on the condition that one trains with him and masters the healing powers that making the bowls sing does. As I rubbed the rim of this weighty bowl an incredible sound escaped it that made the whole room sing and our souls reverberate. The serenity and stillness that followed was so divine that the master couldn't help but laugh at my mesmerised aw.
After my time making bowls sing, I continued my wander. I met camels. I went in to magnificent temples and spoke to the locals. I got lost and as the sunset found myself at the lake in time to see magnificent colours reflect from its waters. Alas the sun I'd watch rise has now gone to bed.
As I found my way and headed back to the meeting point excited to retell the days tales with Farrel, I was enchanted by some stunning crystals at a small street stall. they stopped me in my tracks as I admired the incredible energies that were dancing from the glistening stones.
"Hello madam" the stall owner welcomed me. "Please sit, sit." he said with a friendly smile. I sat with him and gushed over his stones as he explained the stories attached to them and the healing powers of the different stones.
I proudly showed him my new Turquoise necklace sat pretty around my neck and yet his face didn't look impressed. I could see he was feeling torn, that he was hiding a truth from me and he fumbled for words.
"What is it?" I asked him wandering if he was upset I'd already bought a necklace from another vendor.
"Madam, that is not real turquoise." he said sadly. I was gob-smacked. I'd been cheated. He took the stone and scratched the back of it to prove it was a fake. Tears welled up in my eyes and I felt a sense of "how dare he!" well up inside of me. I'd been so kind to this boy and he had cheated me.
"Oh no, no Madam, please don't cry, don't cry".
"I'm going to tell him! I'm going to give it back to him!" my self-righteousness had been triggered and I wanted to tell this boy it was not ok to cheat me.
"No, no madam, it is his karma, his karma, you leave this to God." the crystal man said as he gave me a tissue to wipe my little sensitive tears.
As I sat there and slowly came round, one of the friends I'd crossed paths with in Rajasthan recognised me and invited me to a get together and a sing song around a campfire later that evening.
So, later on, Farrel and I went there.
And that is where we met Malcolm. Maltese Malcolm. A bearded face that had lines telling me he was wiser than his years and with a smile that lit up a space. As the desert day turned to night and we huddled around the fire listening to Manu Chao play from the Spanish guitar, I started to shiver. This kindly soul took note and placed his woollen blanket around my shoulders.
"Thanks for sharing" I said to my new friend.
We talked about life, about travels, about Australia where we had both loved and lived. In his warmth I felt a new friend and as he talked enthusiastically about going to the Himalayas and seeing snow for the first time in his life, I knew I was destined to join him.
"Awesome. I'm coming with you." I said without even thinking. Two weeks later we'd realise I wasn't joking.
The next day Farrel and I joined Malcolm on a bus journey out of Pushkar to a small desert village where he had a good local friend to meet and say goodbye to. We were followed around by children like celebrities. I remember going to pick up a cup that had been thrown on the floor outside a chai shop, only to be laughed at by locals as I learned that it was made from clay and hence, made to be chucked. We all started laughing as I realised there were clay cups everywhere!
Upon meeting with Malcolm's friend we continued walking around the village and soon found ourselves lotusly sat in a grey concrete room with one side open to the road as a window. There was smoke. There was chatter. And there was the distinct sound of thumping as men muddled up opium tea leaves on the hard surface.
We made our way to a small corner of space and I realised; I was the only woman squeezed in to this room.
I have spoken a lot about how challenging it can be being a woman in India. At that time, having dyed my hair with henna, I was being called out for resembling a Pakistani Bollywood actress; this evidently drew more attention to me and had me constantly asked for photos much to my gay husband's frustration.
In this situation however, what I experienced was incredibly beautiful and respectful. The men in the den, at first looking at me curiously, started to humbly smile and nod at me.
"Oh my God Jessica... how do I do this!?" Farrell squealed as we were all handed little cups of this new brew.
We knew what it was.
It was opium tea.
I had all sorts of ideas and hang ups about opiates. They're addictive, mind-bending and dangerous. How the hell had Farrel and I ended up in a grey concrete walled opium tea house, I have no idea.
But I was open to making the most out of it.
Farrel and I giggled away as we cheers'd our cups and drank our teas while promising one another to look out for the other.
Admittedly, Farrel was more of a high-pitched princess about it than I was, after slamming his tea, he pulled a face and announced; " Jessica... that was sooo disgusting!" in his gorgeously camp voice.
It wasn't before long we were flying.
I smiled a lot and felt a sense of harmony in our little sit down get-high-tea-house. One man had a letter written in sanskrit and asked the Brahman next to me to translate it to him. The script was so holy that no-one else was allowed to look at it. Water was poured in to our mouths so as not to share any germs. Charras smoke was hanging heavy in the room as the desert sun lit up one side of the otherwise concrete den.
I noticed my hands feeling really dry and so I got out my natural disinfectant hand gel and gave my hands a squirt. Then I gave some to Malcolm. Then to Farrel. Wow. This stuff feels really good we realised.
The next thing I know I was giving it to the gentleman next to me and watching these beautiful men share with one another this new gel. Hands were rubbed together. Some patted their faces or cupped their hands over the noses to breathe in the clean smell.
Goodness knows what these gentleman must've thought about this little lady participating in their fancy tea antics, but I'd been in an amazing space of camaraderie and eventually felt totally at ease with the smiling and the sharing.
As we left the den, the hand gel was still making the rounds among the masses of men huddled together.
"You can have it" I said smiling. "It's a gift... Namaste".
And what a serendipitous gift that experience had been for me. A whirlwind of eye opening realisations and appreciations.
It was naughty and yet, I must also admit, it was an incredibly culturally enlightening experience.
UPDATE: I absolutely do not condone taking opiates... I tried opium again about a month later and was really sick promising to never do it again.

Tom Brokaw, on 'Late Show,' says 'pleased' with prognosis
Tom Brokaw will be on "Late Show with David Letterman" Thursday, and there are two pieces of good news: 1) He looks great; 2) He says his prognosis (he has been diagnosed with multiple myeloma) is good.
Quotes and a clip:
"Well, I'm actually being treated for something called multiple myeloma and it's been going on since August and it got out last week. As you know, I was keeping it as private as I possibly could, which I intend to continue doing. I'm very pleased with the progress and that's about as far as I want to go. There are a lot of other people out there." (Audience applause.) "I do want to say one thing. A lot of people are going through what I'm going through, and they don't have the advantages I do. I'm so conscious of that every day because it involves the whole family and it's tricky and it becomes a big strain. In our case, we've got the resources and access and I've got this fabulous family, and so I am much more aware of what other families are going through and I think we all have to be, as a matter of fact."

A crop of American cockroaches brings in serious cash.
SALISBURY, NC (WBTV) - A man is dead after he tried to rob a homeowner at gunpoint.
It happened around 10:30 Saturday night.
Police say Jack Javis was talking with a friend at his home on North Lee Street, when a man walked inside without knocking and without being invited. The man pointed a gun at Javis and demanded money.
Police say Javis and the man got into a fist fight, and Javis knocked the gun away from the intruder. Javis reached for the gun, and the intruder jumped on his back.
That's when Javis reached over his shoulder and shot the intruder, identified as Marlon Jermaine Barber,23, in the chest.
Police say Barber ran to a nearby home in an attempt to get help, and collapsed. Residents inside that home heard the noise, and tried to revive him. They could not, and Barber died.
Javis was taken to the hospital for facial wounds from the fight.
It's not clear whether Javis and Barber knew each other. The police investigation is continuing.

Lisa Sedlar, hired at New Seasons Market in 2005 as the heir apparent to market co-founder Brian Rohter, was promoted to CEO, the Portland-based supermarket chain announced Tuesday.
The company also announced that Rohter will step down from his position as chairman of the board in January.

The 10-store chain of markets is in growth mode, opening its newest store on Southeast Hawthorne Boulevard earlier this year and developing a new store in Progress Ridge slated for a 2011 start date.
Founded by local entrepreneurs, New Seasons is known for its emphasis on organic and locally sourced food. The company does not disclose revenue. In 10 years, it has grown from one store employing 80 workers to a company with 1,800 employees.
New Seasons plans to select a replacement for Rohter in the board chair's seat next year.

Monday Afternoon Britney Update: Private Eye Edition
It really is another day, another drama for "Miss Bad Media Karma" herself, Britney Spears. While her weekend was relatively quiet on the gossip front, today there are quite a few Brit updates. First, we learned that Kevin will get the boys for Thanksgiving, though Britney will be able to have a turkey day celebration with the boys on Wednesday and visit with them on Thursday morning. Next, Life & Style is reporting that Britney and her brother are in legal trouble for trashing a condo they leased in Marina Del Ray in 2006. Britney has also apparently hired two new important people in her life — a driver (finally) and a private eye to try to dig up dirt on Kevin. She is supposedly hoping that they can catch Kevin in the act of smoking or drinking in front of the kids in order to have some leverage in the custody battle. Just when I think it can't get any more complicated, it always does.

Posted by Dom
For your Friday afternoon I've got one epic film clip premiere for you. After 'Talking Like I'm Falling Down Stairs' and 'China', Sparkadia is back with another stadium-sized pop song in the form of 'Mary' - and fitting with the song's epic, almost hymnal, quality, the video clip is just as grandiose.
Sparkadia vocalist, songwriter and all-round brainchild Alex Burnett called into triple j and explained how the film clip came together.
"We went to Kiama [in NSW]," said Burnett on a crackly phone line from his adopted home of London, "so it sort of looks like a desolate wasteland. It's probably a very rare-looking place because it's not like a desert because it's very rocky but the rock formations are quite sharp and angular. So I flew in and I was jetlagged as hell [and] very excited about the shoot. [In the video] I had 20 people, who were like a tribe, following me because I was leading them to the promised land. I was also searching for Mary, who was my elusive figure as such.
"So I rocked up and it's the only day I have to film this video clip because I have to go back to London," he explained, "so I flew in just to do this clip. Everything's going great, we get there at seven in the morning, start shooting and by about 10 o'clock it starts raining - and I mean it's pouring, it's absolutely pouring - and for the rest of the day it essentially pours. So it was one of those videos where I was like, 'If it looks great wet, I think we're gonna be fine. But if it doesn't look great wet, it's going to be terrible.'
"So I likened it a bit to 'November Rain' at the end, you know, when after Slash has played the guitar, walking out of the church into the cornfields playing guitar without a lead. After that when it gets rainy and they're having the wedding cake and the rain falls down and the wedding ends and suddenly Axl's wife is dead... Anyway, the rain is pretty amazing so I was hoping I'd have the same kind of power out of the rain.
"I think it looks great and in terms of videos it was a pretty full-on experience."
So here it is, in all its wet, iconographical glory, is the world premiere of Sparkadia's 'Mary' video:

Women's soccer beats East Tennessee State in 3-2 thriller
Related Links
Sept. 30, 2007
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - The women's soccer team came from behind to defeat East Tennessee State 3-2 Sunday afternoon at Summers-Taylor Stadium.
Junior forward Keri Zwikker continued her hot start to the season for the Dolphins, scoring two more goals including the game-winner in the 75th minute off of freshman midfielder Tamara Cormier's corner kick.
"We are very excited coming off the first conference weekend 2-0," said JU head coach Chris Kouns. "I think it is a credit to the girls, because this is our sixth consecutive game on the road, three weekends in a row, and we played two tough conference opponents. To come out 2-0 says a great deal about our team."
Zwikker, who leads the A-Sun with 11 goals, had given the Dolphins the lead in the ninth minute after she shook off a couple of Buccaneer defenders to finish senior midfielder Emilie Howland's pass.
ETSU freshman Kelly Brinkman tied the score at 1-1 in the 31st minute after being set up by freshmen midfielder Terri Miller and sophomore midfielder Jordan Monty.
The Buccaneers took a 61st minute lead after junior forward Katie Green put them ahead 2-1.
The Dolphins equalized eight minutes later, with freshman midfielder Jelena Vrcelj scoring her first collegiate goal with a powerful blast from just inside the box.
"I'm very pleased with everyone on the team's work rate in practice and what they have shown on the field," Kouns said. "ETSU was a tough game - they were well coached and well organized. We're very excited to be 2-0 in the conference and seeing where we can go from here."
The Dolphins will be in action again on Friday, taking on Mercer at 7:00 p.m. and Kennesaw State at 2:00 p.m. at the Ashley Sports Complex.

TEAMS: New Orleans Saints
According to the New Orleans Times-Picayune, former Saints cornerbac Randall Gay was arrested early Thursday morning and charged with entry or remaining on premises when forbidden, two counts of simple battery, resisting an officer and disturbing the peace by public intoxication. Gay ended up posting the $1,200 bond and was released at 7:15 am on Thursday. Kelly said officers were dispatched to the Bulldog Pub, 4335 Perkins Road, at 1:45 a.m. after reports of a man refusing to leave the business and causing a disturbance. When officers arrived, they were told Gay had refused to leave and put his hands on two employees, Kelly said. When officers attempted to escort Gay from the bar, he began to struggle and resisted attempts to be handcuffed. He eventually was handcuffed and placed under arrest. Need NFL Tickets?

U.S. Intelligence is incompetent.
They failed to stop a Chinese cyber-attack where the Chinese stole every military secret of the U.S. including new weapon and vehicle designs as well as missile defenses.
U.S. Army, NSA, CIA, Dell and Booz never knew that Snowden didn't even finish high school and his resume was false.
Snowden accessed data that was well beyond the scope of his "need to know" and his computer level of access.
Snowden was able to smuggle out highly classified data by plugging in a thumb-drive in his workstation computer.
Snowden took 4 laptops full of classified data to Hong Kong.
Defense contractors were paying Snowden $120,000 a year with U.S. taxes yet this wasn't enough to keep him silent.
Snowden is a Millennial kid. This means that because of the Internet in which he can look up any information, listen to any song, watch anything, play any game immediately and free -- he is impatient and rude. The Chinese call Millennial kids Little Kings. Because Snowden plays video games all the time, he is a little socially awkward, has a false sense of self-confidence and thinks he's always the hero. He's a Monster Kid.
U.S. citizens are so disgruntled that there aren't enough jobs and they aren't being paid what they are worth, that they see this Snowden thing as a way to lash out at the government that ignores them. So they raise up Snowden as a hero just because he is trying to embarrass Obama and the government. I get that, I really do.
But what you don't get is that the U.S. is going to be like Honduras soon. 20 murders every day in every split territory.
And China's going to be the world super power. China, who banned time travel, Winnie the Pooh and Magic!

Tennis stars past and present will take part in a fundraising event at Eastbourne next month in memory of Elena Baltacha.
The former British No. 1 has died of liver cancer, aged 30.
Baltacha was a stalwart of the Aegon International at Devonshire Park, played the week before Wimbledon.
Andy Murray, Martina Navratilova, Tim Henman, Greg Rusedski, Jamie Murray and Heather Watson are among the players who have agreed to take part in a fundraising event, The Rally Against Cancer - Rally For Bally, which will now be held in her memory on June 15.
The traditional mixed doubles exhibition matches at Eastbourne, at the Aegon Championships at Queen's Club and the Aegon Classic in Birmingham will raise money for the Royal Marsden national cancer charity and Elena Baltacha Foundation.
Baltacha almost pulled off a first round surprise as a wild card at Eastbourne last year, pushing Russian sixth seed Maria Kirilenko to three sets.
Baltacha, a regular at the Sussex showpiece since 2001, reached the quarter-finals in 2010.
Eastbourne-based British colleague Johanna Konta tweeted: "Words can't describe..you inspired and humbled everything you touched. I know you're in heaven because that's where angels belong.
"Rest in peace Bally. You will never be forgotten."
