Watch and bet on live darts at Bet365 > Live streaming > darts The eight-player, £450,000 event sees stars including 15-time World Champion Phil Taylor, reigning World Champion Adrian Lewis and current Premier League Darts champion Gary Anderson battling across 15 weeks for the prestigious £150,000 title. The trio are joined by reigning UK Open champion James Wade, World Championship finalist Andy Hamilton, Players Championship winner Kevin Painter, Australian star Simon Whitlock and Holland's five-time World Champion Raymond van Barneveld in the McCoy's Premier League Darts. The tournament kicks off on Thursday February 9 at the Manchester Arena, and will progress on a tour of the UK & Ireland for the next 14 weeks as the players compete twice in the league phase before the top four contest the Play-Offs at The O2 in London on May 17. Following the opening night in Manchester, which is on course for a record crowd for the event at the venue, the players proceed to Aberdeen for week two, with all tickets for the AECC already sold out. Play then crosses the Irish Sea to Belfast, before returning to England to be played at the Westpoint Arena in Exeter and The Brighton Centre on the first two Thursdays in March. The McCoy's Premier League Darts will visit Dublin for the first time on Thursday March 22 to be held at The O2 as the league phase reaches its halfway point. The Motorpoint Arena in Cardiff will host the eighth league night - with all tickets for the Welsh leg of the event already snapped up - before Nottingham's Capital FM Arena, Sheffield's Motorpoint Arena and the BIC in Bournemouth host further league nights. The Echo Arena in Liverpool, Birmingham's NIA and the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle will stage the remaining league nights, before the top four players head to The O2 in London on Thursday May 17 to contest the Play-Offs. "Following the hugely successful Ladbrokes World Championship and last week's announcement of the eight competing players there has been another surge in interest in the McCoy's Premier League Darts," said PDC Chairman Barry Hearn. "The tournament is already set to welcome more fans than ever as we embark on our 15 nights across the UK and Ireland, and the interest from fans at all venues has been phenomenal, with over 70,000 tickets now bought for the event. "The arenas in Cardiff and Aberdeen have already sold-out but we're delighted with the response from fans in Ireland, who are guaranteed to make our first visit to The O2 in Dublin a memorable one. "The McCoy's Premier League Darts promises to be the best-ever, with the line-up of players featuring the biggest names in darts, our in-form players and stars looking to join the elite group to have lifted this trophy."

Mari Carr New York Times & USA Bestselling AuthorAbout WILD IRISH CHRISTMAS Wild Irish Christmas embraces some of the same traditions I enjoy in my own family. Everyone coming together to eat, drink, open gifts and tell stories. My Wild Irish family is all grown up and married with kids of their own when the story begins. When they decide to recreate Christmas' past for their father, Pat, the seven siblings spend the evening in the apartment where they grew up. They gather around the Christmas tree with a bottle of Jameson as Pat tells them the story of how he met their mother, Sunday. Excerpt As the bottle moved from hand to hand, they each offered up words of thanks or wishes for the New Year. When it reached Patrick, he lifted the bottle and proposed a toast he hadn't used since the last Christmas he'd celebrated with his wife, Sunday. "To Conall Brannagh." Ewan took the bottle from his father. "Who?" "Conall Brannagh," Patrick repeated. "If your mother had chosen him over me, none of us would be here tonight." Sean leaned forward, a definite gleam of interest in his eyes. "So you had some competition for Mom, eh? I never knew that." Keira grabbed a bag of pretzels. "I didn't either. Was Mom in love with him?" Teagan looked at Patrick. "I always thought you were her first love." Patrick smiled at his daughter. "I was her last love, Teagan. That's a much better spot to claim. Besides, I don't know if it's fair to say she loved Conall, though he certainly turned the women's heads. What's the word you girls use for handsome men? Dreamy?" Riley laughed. "Um…yeah, not in this decade. I definitely don't use the word dreamy to describe Aaron." "Then what would you say?" Pat asked. "He's hot. Totally doable." Killian turned to look at his younger sister and shook his head. "Jesus. How are we related?" "Dreamy works for me, Pop," Teagan said quickly. Patrick looked at his kids and silently marveled at how different they were. Somehow, miraculously, their unique qualities meshed perfectly, creating an amazing family. Ewan, always the steady one, hadn't been distracted by the asides. "So Mom thought this Conall was dreamy?" "All the girls in Killarney thought Conall was handsome, but he only had eyes for Sunday. Not that I could blame him. Your mother was a beauty, with that long dark hair and those crystal-blue eyes. She caught every man's attention." "But you didn't fall in love with her because of her looks, right?" Keira asked. "Och, Lord no. While Sunday's face was pleasing, it was her heart, so kind and compassionate, that I found attractive. That's what captured me by my hand and—pardon the expression—balls and kept me holding on to her for dear life." "So what was the story with this Conall guy?" Tris asked. "Well now, that is a tale." Patrick leaned back and closed his eyes, letting his mind drift to a different place, a different time. "I was working on my family's sheep farm during the day while tending bar at Scully's Pub every night. I was a young buck of twenty when Sunday, who was just nineteen, moved to Killarney to live with her aunt. Scully hired her to sing in the pub and from the first moment I laid eyes on her, I was lost…"

Sinful Rewards 5 by Cynthia Sax – Review + Giveaway
Sinful Rewards 5 by Cynthia Sax Nicolas Rainer, Chicago's most sought-after billionaire bachelor, has finally decided what he wants, and that's Bee Carter in his arms, forever. He shows up unannounced on her doorstep and kisses her until her toes curl and her body burns. Nicolas wasn't the sexy man Bee expected to see this morning. Hawke Masters, her tattooed former marine, is riding his customized chopper toward the condo building, anticipating an equally mind-meltingly erotic encounter. Both men want her with a thrilling intensity. Neither her billionaire nor her biker wishes to share her affections. Is today the day Bee is forced to choose?
My ThoughtsI feel like my reviews of this series may seem slightly redundant, but I can't help it. I love this hot series - it is so awesome to watch it unfold each month with a new sexy novella. I really like the character development and the twists and turns in each installment. As soon as I finish one I find myself anxiously waiting for the next to be available. Cynthia has done an awesome job with this smokin' hot serial and I can't wait for more.
About the AuthorCynthia Sax lives in a world where demons aren't all bad, angels aren't all good, and magic happens every single day. Although her heroes may not always say, "I love you", they will do anything for the women they love. They live passionately. They fight fiercely. They love the same women forever. Cynthia has loved the same wonderful man forever. Her supportive hubby offers himself up to the joys and pains of research, while they travel the world together, meeting fascinating people and finding inspiration in exotic places such as Istanbul, Bali, and Chicago.

Christmas, Actually – Grand Finale + Giveaway
A themed tour through Prism Book Tours.
It's the MISTLETOE KISSES TOUR Grand Finale for Christmas, Actually By Anna Adams, Anna J. Stewart, and Melinda Curtis Three Harlequin Heartwarming novellas, where a sweet kiss takes place under the mistletoe.
Did you miss any of the excerpts, guest post, or reviews on the tour? Feel free to go back and check out all the stops now!
Launch - Intro to the CollectionChristmas, Actually – three holiday stories about three siblings living in Christmas Town, Maine, where tradition has it that a kiss on Christmas Eve in the town square gazebo will lead to wedding bells in the new year! Christy's Cozy Corners - An Interview with Anna Adams How was it decided that the story would take place in Christmas Town, Maine? We were looking for a setting that spoke of the holidays, and I'd lived in Maine in a town that decorated the green for Christmas. I described it, and someone suggested Christmas Town as a name for our fictional village. Coffee Books & Art - Excerpt Snowflakes hit the windshield and splayed into star shapes while Bing Crosby crooned his dreams of a white Christmas. Sophie Palmer tried to sing along, but her mind was already racing up the icy interstate to Christmas Town, Maine, where the father of her unborn child now lived. The Book Lovers' Lounge - Christmas Town by Anna Adams And I imagined my own broken hero, Jack Banning, watching from the sidewalk, there in the town, but watching from the boundaries because he doesn't belong any more. Getting Your Read On - Review "Yeah, I really loved my time in Christmas Town with the Banning family. Each story was unique and romantic. I loved all the characters. They were real and identifiable. It is the perfect book to curl up with as the days get colder and we get closer to Christmas." Colorimetry - The Power of a First Kiss by Anna Adams He's at her house, killing time because he can't go home and face his brother's happiness when another friend calls to offer him an investment opportunity. Mary is leaning against George, also listening on the phone, when finally, he admits to his feelings. He takes her in his arms for a kiss he clearly doesn't want even as he desires nothing in the whole wide world more than the hometown love of his life. Southern Chelle - Review "I don't think I've read anything by any of these authors before, but these novellas have me falling hard for their work! I used to receive the Harlequin Heartwarming books monthly, but I didn't have room for anymore paperback books in my house and had to give it up. I'm so glad they've continued these offerings!" Kelly P's Blog - An Interview with Anna J. Stewart 5. What do you hope readers will take with them after reading your story? There's nothing better than a happily ever after--that's why I write (and read) romance, but that's kind of the easy answer. I think at its core, the story is about learning how to be open with others, to tell them how you're really feeling about situations that are emotionally damaging them. Dean, Callie and Eliza all have to do this at some point during the story and once they do, the happily ever after is possible. My Love for Reading Keeps Growing - Excerpt "Is this a bad time?" The combination of sympathy and amusement shining in green eyes, along with the tamed Irish lilt, called to mind fields of clover dotting rolling hills. She'd spent many a night and more than a few days dreaming of traveling to the Emerald Isle. Now it seemed as if Ireland had come to her. Shoulder-length, golden-streaked hair brushed the worn leather of the bomber jacket he wore over snug jeans, the hint of a plain white T-shirt peeking from under the collar. The Wonderings Of One Person - Dream Cast for The Christmas Wish There are some actors who just "hit" from the second I lay eyes on them. When looking for images of my Dean, I did not have to look much further than Chris Hemsworth. Casting my heroines has always been problematic for me. Typically, I use another medium for inspiration (I'm a doll collector), but when I saw this picture of Nina Dobrev (Vampire Diaries), I knew that was Callie. Christian Chick's Thoughts - Review "The Christmas Date: The instant I started reading this story, I knew I was going to love it. There's just something about those You've Got Mail-esque stories that I love. Nick and Gina are both so likeable, and their chemistry lept off the page. This was easily my favorite of the three stories!" Bookworm Lisa - Review "Each of the author's did a great job in telling their story. I liked the descriptions and the characters. This book is a fun way to get into the holiday season and find a little clean Christmas romance." fundinmental - My Top Ten Christmas Traditions by Anna J. Stewart I LOVE Christmas time. Truly, from about Halloween on, I'm all about the tinsel, the trees and the music (why do they have to stop the Xmas carols on the 26th?!). For years now it's just been my mom and me during the holiday season, but we've got our traditions…and they start early…even before we carve the Thanksgiving turkey. Beck Valley Books - An Interview with Malinda Curtis What's your favorite aspect of the story? One of my favorite aspects is Gina's parents. They've tried for years to do what they thought was right and it strained their character and their relationship. This year, they rejoin the pageant and the town's festivities in a very public way. It's a small part of the story, but a set of vignettes that I love. Mel's Shelves - Review "I loved seeing the siblings in each other's stories and enjoyed getting to know them. These stories are quick, easy reads which are perfect to get you in the mood for Christmas. I love that they're all clean so I can recommend it to everyone! Christmas Town was a fun place to visit!" Painted Words - Review "But what I truly loved about this book was that it didn't feel at all repetitive which can be a big hindrance to books like this especially if written by multiple authors. It was an absolutely beautiful story, one that I look forward to reading again next year at this time and it was the perfect way to start off the season." I Am A Reader - Melinda Curtis's Favorite Treat at Christmas Time (with recipe) My mom is a fan of Jell-o salad. At Christmas, she'd serve us a slice of Jello salad on a leaf of lettuce with a dollop of mayonnaise on top. The first time Mr. Curtis had this dish, he happily took a big bite, expecting it to be whipped cream on top. Kudos to him for keeping his disappointment to himself. Deal Sharing Aunt - Excerpt In the wee hours of Christmas Eve morning, Gina stood at the edge of the town square and traced the deep, jagged scar that ran from her left temple to her jawline with the tip of a gloved finger, as if her touch could erase the past. The small ball of worry, the one that hadn't let her sleep last night, expanded like bread dough in her chest, pressing against her lungs. I should have told him. Wishful Endings - Excerpt (4-star review here) "Are you kidding? You're beautiful. Why would he do that? "You have to say that. You're standing in my kitchen." With me practically in your arms. Nevertheless, she hugged his words to her heart. No one had ever called her beautiful before. JoJo's Corner - 10 Gifts Ideas for Your Teen/Young Adult & Review I'm a little bit anal about the holidays. I have a basic list I work from that my kids will enjoy or find useful. They're all in college now, but that doesn't mean they want a package of socks for Christmas. Here's a list of 10 suggested gift giving categories for your teen/young adult... Review: "Christmas, Actually is the perfect collection of stories to cuddle up and enjoy on a cold wintry night!" Undercover Book Reviews - Review "Three stories in one book, a great way to start the Christmas season off! Anna Adams takes you on three separate journeys in the life of Jack, Callie, and Gina as each tells their own story. The plot is good in each one." Katie's Clean Book Collection - Review What a fun story! The reader is taken on a journey through Christmas Town, Maine and we get to see snippets of what makes this town special through the eyes of three different characters. Christmas, Actually by Anna Adams, Anna J. Stewart, & Melinda Curtis Clean Contemporary Romance Paperback & Ebook, 202 pages November 1st 2014 by Harlequin Heartwarming Discover the magic of Christmas Town, Maine! Three lonely strangers come to Christmas Town, Maine, and find love with three Banning siblings in the town that celebrates the holidays by decorating its square with lights and ribbons and a holiday pageant on Christmas Eve. Tradition has it that a kiss beneath the mistletoe that night means marriage for the couple in the new year. The Christmas Gift by Anna Adams: Jack Banning promised to support the mother of his unborn child… But she doesn't need money, she only needs him. The Christmas Wish by Anna J. Stewart: Callie Banning's student has declared war on Christmas, so it's up to her to help the little girl—and her widowed father—believe again. The Christmas Date by Melinda Curtis: Gina Vernay is about to meet her online mystery date…and she's in for the surprise of a lifetime!
Amazon - Barnes & Noble - Harlequin - iTunesAbout the Authors Anna Adams wrote her first romance in wet sand. The Atlantic Ocean washed it away, but Anna kept going. Her stories are of love, like the proverbial stone in a lake, making ripples that spread and contract and involve. From Iceland to Hawaii, and points in between, Anna and her own hero share with children and family and friends who've become family. All this living and loving gives Anna plenty of fodder for stories of love set in real life. Come along and live them with her!
Website - Goodreads - Facebook - Twitter - PinterestAnna J. Stewart can't remember a time she didn't have a book in her hand or a story in her head and credits her mother never saying no to a book for turning her into a writer. Anna lives in Northern California with an overly attentive cat named Snickers and is happiest when setting her heroes and heroines on their road to happily ever after amidst family, fun and laughter.
Website - Goodreads - Facebook - Twitter - PinterestMelinda Curtis grew up on an isolated sheep ranch, where mountain lions had been seen and yet she roamed unaccompanied. Being a rather optimistic, clueless of danger, sort she took to playing "what if" games that led her to become an author. She spends days trying to figure out new ways to say "He made her heart pound." That might sound boring, but the challenge keeps her mentally ahead of her 3 kids and college sweetheart husband.
Website - Goodreads - Facebook - Twitter - Tumblr - PinterestTour-Wide Giveaway - Gift Card Prize Pack: $20 Amazon gift card and ebook of Christmas, Actually (open internationally) - US Prize Pack: Paperback of Christmas, Actually and three Christmas ornaments (US only) - 3 ebooks of Christmas, Actually (open internationally) Ends November 30th a Rafflecopter giveaway

Malta election returning Labor party to power
An election victory is returning Malta's Labor party to power after 15 years in the opposition.
The Associated Press
An election victory is returning Malta's Labor party to power after 15 years in the opposition.
Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi of the Nationalist Party conceded defeat on Sunday as ballots were still being counted in the island nation and eurozone member. Labor leader Joseph Muscat will be sworn in as the new prime minister on Monday.
Projections by both parties indicated a decisive victory for Labor, giving it 55 percent of the votes cast, compared to 43 percent for the conservatives.
Smaller parties took the rest of the votes, as Labor clinched its biggest victory since Malta obtained independence from Britain in 1964.
Complete results weren't expected until late Sunday, and the exact breakdown of seats in Parliament was still being determined.
Analysts said the shift in power apparently reflects voter desire for change.
The conservative Nationalists had kept unemployment at 4.3 percent and pledged to reduce taxes. But Labor promised to lower energy tariffs and fight corruption.

What's Hot on Inside Movies: Remembering Brittany Murphy

I'm sorry James Cameron, but 3D is not the future of television
Speaking of time, this is about the worst time to try and thrust new television and film technology on consumers. Aren't we still in the middle of this transition to digital broadcasts, HDTV and Blu-Ray? Now you're telling us we should buy new HDTVs and new Blu-Ray players that support 3D technology? Oh, and we'll need those cool 3D glasses, too.
There's a few problems with this. 3D was going to revolutionize the movies in the '80s. It didn't happen. It's supposed to be "going to revolutionize" movies right now, but it's not happening.
Cinematical, TV Squad's detached fraternal siamese twin, also at Comic-Con
Even though TV Squad's very own John Scott Lewinski is fighting his way through hordes of overweight Rorschachs and pre-pubescent Chun Lis to get exclusive interviews and scoops on the newest TV news at the San Diego Comic Con, don't forget that our partners-in-crime from Cinematical are also there covering the latest flim-flam in film.
The movie side of the annual pop-culture cavalcade opened with one of the biggest names in the history of film and what could very well be one of the biggest names in the future of film. Director James Cameron screened a solid 25 minutes of his forthcoming sci-fi epic Avatar. Blogger Todd Gilchrist got a hint of the plot and special effects movie-goers can expect when the film hits theaters later this year and said it "promises to be both hugely entertaining and technically groundbreaking." Man, that's got me worried. That's what they also said about Titanic.
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles -- An early look
One of the better benefits of this job is that I can sometimes see television shows in advance of their premiere. This time around I was given an advance DVD of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles which contained the first two episodes ("Pilot" and "Gnothi Seauton"). I'm a fan of the franchise, although admittedly I wasn't that big a fan of Terminator 3.
This show is done by the same company that was behind Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines and the upcoming Terminator 4. It was originally to be titled The Sarah Connor Chronicles. I guess the creators were concerned that nobody would recognize the franchise without the word "Terminator". Such title ambiguity did not hurt Smallville, but I digress.
TV Squad already did a script review of the pilot, but what follows is a review of the finished product.

Numbers Game : Pakistan's bowlers bail out their batsmen
Series/Tournaments: Pakistan tour of Sri Lanka
Big Picture
There was a time when winning the toss did more for a side's chances at the R Premadasa Stadium than its performance in a day-night match did. Batting under lights at the erstwhile Khettarama ground was so difficult that teams invariably chose to bat, and invariably won. And then came the 2011 World Cup. The playing square was relaid. New floodlights were installed. And the ghost of the Premadasa chase was laid to rest. With the white ball not doing as much at night now, the last five ODIs at the ground have been won by the side batting second. With the final two games of this ODI series to be played here, it evens things out further for these two well-matched sides.
Sri Lanka and Pakistan have alternated between taking punches and delivering them. They did that in the T20I series, which was tied 1-1. They split the first two games in the five-match ODI series as well, before rain decided to have its share in the third. More of it is forecast for tomorrow, but with a reserve day in place now, it would take a lot of water over two days to deny us a result.
On paper, Sri Lanka's top eight look as dangerous and as powerful as any top eight ever in ODI cricket. The three senior batsmen, the explosive Angelo Mathews and Thisara Perera, the fast-maturing Lahiru Thirimanne and Dinesh Chandimal. Upul Tharanga is only 27, but is already closing in on 5000 ODI runs. Sri Lanka's major headache these days is to figure out the batting order.
Pakistan's batsmen have wobbled so much recently that their bowlers, especially the three quality limited-overs spinners, have had to work harder to deliver wins. Misbah-ul-Haq opted for the extra batsman, Asad Shafiq, in the third ODI but the wash-out denied him the opportunity to see whether the move would work.
As the series nears its end, both sides would want to start delivering more punches than they take.
Form guide
Sri Lanka WLLLL (Completed games, most recent first)
Pakistan LWWLW
Watch out for...Not only have the Pakistan batsmen struggled to make the big runs of late, they have also struggled to make them fast enough. There has been a certain tentativeness in the line-up which has had them sweating even in small chases. While it makes games exciting, the batting requires more stability as well as firepower. Both are available; only lying dormant at the moment.
Not that it is a big concern right now, but Dinesh Chandimal has a top-score of 32 from his past seven ODI innings. In his short career, he has already impressed in England, South Africa and Australia, but his home average is yet to go past ten. He does tend to get tied down in sluggish conditions. Which is how they will be in Sri Lanka as long as he plays, and thereafter.
Team newsThere was word that Mohammad Hafeez had injured himself during training, but he has been declared fit for tomorrow. Mohammad Sami is recovering as well from his thumb injury. The question is, will Pakistan abandon Asad Shafiq for Sami, if he is passed fit to play? Unlikely.
Pakistan (probable) 1 Mohammad Hafeez, 2 Azhar Ali, 3 Asad Shafiq, 4 Younis Khan, 5 Misbah-ul-Haq (capt), 6 Umar Akmal, 7 Shahid Afridi, 8 Sarfraz Ahmed (wk), 9 Sohail Tanvir, 10 Umar Gul, 11 Saeed Ajmal
Sajeewa Weerakoon, the 34-year old left-arm spinner, had a watery international debut on Wednesday. No reason why he shouldn't get a second game tomorrow.
Sri Lanka (probable) 1 Tillakaratne Dilshan, 2 Mahela Jayawardene (capt), 3 Kumar Sangakkara (wk), 4 Dinesh Chandimal, 5 Upul Tharanga, 6 Lahiru Thirimanne, 7 Angelo Mathews, 8 Thisara Perera, 9 Nuwan Kulasekara, 10 Lasith Malinga, 11 Sajeewa Weerakoon
Stats and trivia
Quotes"If you take the last few months, our trend has been to do very well in one game and do badly in the other game. I think we need to stop that. As a team we need to work towards that. Consistency is a very big factor. If we play like we played the last game we will be a top team."

The Hip Hop Congress of Rockford will bring a new kind of festival to the area meant to celebrate hip hop, empower youth, and create the environment for learning and networking.
The festival is a combination of the three years of activities and events that the Hip Hop Congress of Rockford has provided to the community in nonprofit services. Hip hop is not just a music genre, but it's also an artform that consists of dance, poetry, music and art.
The festival will be an all-day event of music performances, educational workshops, skatepark, live art, kids' area, history museum and competitions in breakdancing, music production, emceeing, slam poetry, video production and turntablism.
The live art for the festival will be a cultural mural to represent the neighborhood on the 15-foot-by-60-foot wall of the Booker Washington Community Center to be painted by well-established artists in the Rockford community, and the mural will be left up for all to see well after the festival.
Performances from dance groups to hip hop artists will also be held on the main stages with performers coming from Freeport, Chicago, Iowa, Janesville, Milwaukee, Missouri, Indiana and even as far as New York.
The educational portions of the event consist of workshops that teach breakdancing, emceeing, music production and art, which are for all ages and skill levels.
The festival is geared toward teens and young adults, but is open for all ages. There is an explicit language warning for certain areas of the festival because of creative expression of the performers.
Admission is $10 per person and free for kids 10 and younger.

Brazil head coach Luiz Felipe Scolari has backed Argentina to make the FIFA World Cup final, and hopes to face them on July 13.
Due to their home advantage, Scolari's men are widely considered favourites to lift a sixth World Cup title at the Maracana Stadium next month.
However, the Brazil boss, who led his country to their most recent triumph in 2002, believes their South American rivals - who boast a wealth of attacking options, including Lionel Messi and Sergio Aguero - could go all the way.
"Argentina I believe are the most likely to reach the final," he said. "I don't have any worries about Argentina.
"I hope that, just by looking at the trip we have in front of us to the end, the final could be Brazil, and for the characteristics that I see in a team, by looking at various factors, it could be Argentina.
"I hope that we have a Brazil v Argentina final. A South American final with big players, with excellent technical qualities, but I don't want Argentina to be out in the group stage or in the knockout stages.
"I hope that Argentina plays football as it normally does and do whatever they have to do to win."

Pastors nationwide continued to dialogue and voice strong opinions about the issues surrounding the St. Louis grand jury decision, announced Monday evening, not to indict Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson for the fatal shooting of Michael Brown, as well as the subsequent demonstrations.
"None of us really knows exactly what happened in the Ferguson shooting. Sadder is that even many Christ followers don't seem to want to know," posted Pastor James MacDonald, founding and senior pastor of Harvest Bible Chapel based in the Chicago area, on Instagram (see below). "What we appear to prefer is lining up without nuanced analysis entirely on one side or the other."
MacDonald gave examples of the views people line up with. "'All police are driven by racial prejudice and out to get racial minorities' – oh please! Or 'all police actions are justifiable and there is no abuse of authority or pent up feelings of righteous anger in our urban centers' – oh please!" more >>
The hashtag "#PrayForFerguson" was trending nationwide on social networking site Twitter Tuesday morning as people shared their pleas for peace, love and healing following Monday's announcement that police officer Darren Wilson will not be indicted for fatally shooting an unarmed African-American teen.
In the moments following the announcement, #Ferguson was used more than 50,000 times a minute.
Those following the unrest that erupted in Ferguson streets Monday night used the hashtag #PrayForFerguson to share prayers such as @johnlcooper's "God, help us LOVE" more >>
Prominent Christian leaders quickly issued statements and used social media to voice their concerns shortly after a St. Louis grand jury decision not to indict Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson for the fatal shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown on Aug. 9.
St. Louis County prosecuting attorney Robert McCulloch announced the grand jury's findings during a Monday evening press conference at 9:22 p.m EST.
"The single antidote that will truly alleviate the tension and angst in Ferguson, Missouri, resides in the peace that only Christ can render," said Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, the president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference/Conela. "The prophetic and conciliatory concept of 'Shalom' — a peace where nothing stands missing or broken — presents the prescription for a community divided by race and fear." more >>
On August 22nd, I wrote an article entitled, "Five Obvious Lessons from Ferguson." Now, in the wake of the grand jury's decision not to indict Officer Darren Wilson in the shooting of my namesake, 18-year-old Michael Brown, and in the wake of the riots that immediately erupted, here are five more obvious lessons.
1) No verdict could satisfy both sides.
It was clear from the start that if the grand jury decided to indict Officer Wilson, many (especially white) Americans would see it as an example of the judicial process succumbing to political pressure. They would say that Wilson was condemned before the trial ever took place and that he was an innocent scapegoat offered up to quell an ugly uprising. more >>
Fans of TLC's reality TV show "19 Kids and Counting" have created a petition to support the Christian family amid a push by LGBT activists to get the show canceled because Michelle Duggar campaigned against a pro-LGBT ordinance in her community.
In August, Michelle actively campaigned against an ordinance in Fayetteville, Arkansas, that would've prohibited discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. According to critics, the ordinance had several negative consequences, including allowing transgendered men, or men who identify as female, to use women's restrooms.
"In the past few days, liberal extremists have launched a full-scale attack on the Duggars, demanding that The Learning Channel cancel the Duggars' popular reality TV show," reads the pro-Duggar petition. more >>
Reza Aslan, author of the controversial nonfiction work Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth, said in a recent column that atheist public figures like Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris and Bill Maher don't accurately represent atheism.
Known as the "New Atheists," Aslan argued in a Salon column published Friday that these public figures "do not speak for the majority of atheists."
"On the contrary, polls show that only a small fraction of atheists in the U.S. share such extreme opposition to religious faith," wrote Aslan. more >>
