Heroin Gang Leader Convicted in Court
CLERMONT COUNTY, Ohio (Rich Jaffe) -- It's the first case of its kind in Clermont county and it's a big win for the good guys.
Members of a Cincinnati drug gang moved to Union township a little over a year ago to set up shop and take advantage of a growing market for heroin. Friday Raeshawn Wilson, the kingpin of this violent drug gang plead guilty to 30 different charges. Everything from trafficking in heroin to money laundering and gang activities.
A courtroom full of his family and gang members watched as this lifelong thug was handed a 20 year prison sentence.
In an evidence photo he's holding 10 thousand dollars. He even showered his baby with money.
A criminal since he was 12, Raeshawn Wilson walked into court today in orange.
Assistant Clermont County Prosecutor Jason Nagel tells Local 12 News, "Raeshawn Wilson was involved with the Get It Quick gang that comes out of Cincinnati. They decided to branch out here in Clermont County. They believed that no one was going to care if they set up shop there. They believed they'd be able to continue this reign of terror through intimidation, threats and violence and be able to sell their drugs, heroin,cocaine and marijuana with no problems whatsoever."
Wilson and his gang set up shop in Union Township's Picadilly apartments during July of 2012. When they viciously beat one of their own, Justin Reynolds, for allegedly stealing some of Raeshawn's heroin, Reynolds jumped out a second story window and escaped.
Union township police and the Clermont county narcotics unit quickly moved in making cases that would destroy the gang.
Wilson's attorney, William Rapp, did his best saying, "Perhaps the most important thing I would ask the court to consider at this time is Raeshawn Wilson's acceptance of responsibility. Judge he has plead guilty to all of those offenses you set forth literally every offense that was part of the plea by the prosecution."
But it didn't work, pleading guilty to 30 charges,Wilson was sentenced to 20 years in prison. About an hour later, one of his soldiers, Jarrese Williams, plead guilty to his charges. He was sentenced to 8 years in prison.
The prosecutor said, "The message that we've wanted to send for some time now, is to make sure that individuals who came here to sell drugs, bring large amounts of drugs into the community, people who are going to be affiliated with gangs, especially gangs that are nationally known they weren't going to be tolerated here in the county."
Three more members of the gang are awaiting trial. Even after all the money you saw in those photographs today one of Raeshawn Willson's attorneys filed an Affadavit of Indigency on his behalf.
It gets even better.
Earlier on in this case, according to investigators, Wilson's girlfriend Sara Buckley, who's also charged with welfare fraud, put up a 75,000 dollar cash bond for Raeshawn.
Who says crime doesn't pay...at least temporarily.

Unfortunately, my airborne research methods are about to be thwarted. On Monday, the online bookseller Amazon unveiled Kindle, a $399 wireless, hand-held reading "device" that weighs just 10.3 ounces and uses a glare-free display screen called electronic paper. Kindle can hold up to 200 books and allows users to download almost 90,000 titles, including magazines, newspapers and blogs. All of these can be accessed, for a price, within 60 seconds without having to sync up to a computer or subscribe to a wireless plan.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
But I can't help getting churlish about the other thing Kindle will undoubtedly do: make it a lot harder to indulge in the crucial cultural task of judging books -- and the people who read them -- by their covers.
Kindle will look like Kindle. You can't glance at it and see the telltale orange spine that denotes a Penguin paperback, or the foil-embossed dead-giveaway of a romance novel. And if you can't read title and author, you can't evaluate your seatmate. As any Camus-toting backpacker can attest, the joy of reading isn't just about stimulating our brains, it's about letting others know exactly what kind of stimulation we require.
Like other, more obvious objects of personal style, such as clothes and furniture, which have evolved from mere expressions of taste to markers of character, books provide the outside observer with clues as to what sort of person we are. And although these clues might be deceptive (who's to say a Rhodes scholar can't dip into a monster-truck magazine when he's so inclined?), there's no getting around the fact that, for many of us, we are what we read. Half the fun of going into a new friend's home is surveying the contents of his or her bookshelves. It's much more accessible than a diary -- and often more revealing.
Novelist Nick Hornby summed all this up, vis-a-vis another telltale, the music collection: "What really matters is what you like, not what you're like." And as Kindle could be to books, iPods and digital music files are to CDs and records: The intensity, nature and quality of our relationship to music is increasingly hidden from view.
Does Kindle have the power to render our bookshelves so bare that we'll be forced to start collecting Hummel figurines to fill in the empty spaces? Probably not for a while, because there are still several generations of readers out there who have lots of books and no plans to throw them away. But what may change rather quickly is the book not just as personal effect but as part of the connective tissue of society. In other words, in a post-Kindle world, we'll still read, and we may even read more. But because we'll be doing it in a more anonymous, invisible way, we risk stripping it of its significance as a public act.
On the other hand, maybe we need Kindle more than we realize. It so happens that its appearance on the market coincides with the release of a National Endowment for the Arts report finding that Americans of all ages are reading both less frequently and less well than ever before. And while there's no telling whether a computerized widget is literacy's last hope, I'd be remiss not to mention that in the time it took me to write this column, Amazon sold out of Kindles and placed them on back order.
OK, we may not all be able to get one in time for our next flight. We can, however, do something that may soon be unheard of, on planes or anywhere else: notice what the person next to us is reading, smile and say, "I loved that book."

Bears quarterback Jay Cutler leaves his feet as he passes the ball in the second quarter of the Chicago Bears 41-21 win over the Indianapolis Colts Sunday September 9, 2012 at Soldier Field. | Tom Cruze~Sun-Times
How do you think Jay Cutler dealt with the crowd noise?

Jay Cutler can't win.
The best quarterback in modern Bears history should be King in Chicago. But even after a stellar performance in a 41-21 victory over the Colts, Cutler's light-hearted but direct admonition that Bears fans ''tone it down'' in the red zone so the offense can communicate was met with some resistance Monday. Too arrogant and condescending for some.
Even when he's right, it seems like he's wrong — a timely, perhaps ominous, reminder that no matter how bright the future looks, the Bears' fortunes this season rest with a talented but star-crossed quarterback who might not control his own fate even when things are going his way.
Everything in Cutler's life appears to be in order today. There's only one thing that can muck it up — with Cutler, there's always something. When fate moves its huge hands, Cutler's arm strength can't save the day.
At Vanderbilt, he never played in a bowl game and never beat a Division-I team with a winning record. He was 0-3 in overtime. He lost games because of sacks and fumbles, interceptions in overtime, blocked field goals, a blocked punt, a missed PAT, a holding penalty, a 66-yard completion nullified as an illegal forward pass.
When he had a chance to beat No. 19 LSU in 2004, he suffered a neck injury. He had a chance to beat No. 13 Florida in 2005 with a two-point conversion after a late touchdown to Earl Bennett. But an excessive celebration penalty on Bennett forced the Commodores to settle for a tie. Cutler threw a pick in OT and Vandy lost, 49-42.
With the Denver Broncos, Cutler had four opportunities to win one game to make the playoffs and lost each one. In his first game with the Bears, Brian Urlacher suffered a season-ending injury. In 2010 he led the Bears to the NFC Championship Game, but suffered a knee injury against the Packers.
And last season, with the Bears en route to a fifth consecutive victory and 7-3 record, Cutler suffered a broken thumb in typically uncanny fashion — chasing a defender after an interception that happened only because Johnny Knox slipped on the Soldier Field turf.
He had every right to ask ''Why me? Why now?'' When the Packers' Aaron Rodgers was intercepted by Urlacher in the NFC Championship Game, Rodgers tripped up Urlacher without a scratch on him — perhaps saving a momentum-turning touchdown.
A week before Cutler broke his thumb last year, the Steelers' Ben Roethlisberger suffered a broken thumb, but still played the final six games and won five of them. Apparently there's a ''good'' broken thumb and a ''bad'' broken thumb. What a surprise that Cutler ended up with the bad one.
This isn't Cutler's favorite subject — he doesn't have many — so his response when asked if he feels snakebit was predictable: ''No,'' he said, without further comment.
The Bears' game against the Packers on Thursday night at Lambeau Field is a fitting scenario not only for the Bears to prove themselves but for Cutler to start exorcising whatever demons might be taunting him. He and Rodgers have a lot in common. They were lightly recruited out of high school. Both were disappointed by then-Illinois coach Ron Turner. Cutler had a scholarship offer rescinded. Rodgers expected an offer from Turner after being the ''most outstanding quarterback'' at Illinois' summer camp in 2001, but never received one.
But that's where the similarities ended. Rodgers ended up at California with coach Jeff Tedford, a noted quarterback guru. Cutler ended up at Vanderbilt with coach Woody Widenhofer, a former Steelers defensive coordinator who was fired after Cutler's freshman season.
Rodgers' fortunes turned from there. He was a coin-flip with Utah's Alex Smith to be the No. 1 pick in the 2005 draft but suffered the embarrassment of plummeting to the Packers at No. 24. It turned into the best thing that ever happened to him.
Cutler's career with the Broncos didn't work out as well, but Cutler has to take some of the blame for that. In 2008, the Broncos were 8-5 with three games to go. But Cutler was mediocre in all three (passer ratings of 74.3, 72.4 and 74.9) and the Broncos lost to the Panthers, Bills and Chargers and missed the playoffs.
That led to the firing of Mike Shanahan and hiring of Josh McDaniel, whose pursuit of Matt Cassel irked Cutler enough to demand a trade.
That brought Cutler to Chicago, where he is working with his fourth offensive coordinator in the past five seasons. That has been an excuse for the underachieving Cutler so far. But at some point, the litany of tough breaks, poor protection, miscommunications, subpar receiving corps, lack of continuity, untimely injuries in big games and missed opportunities will reflect back on him.
So far, so good in 2012. But there's a long way to go for Cutler. In 2008, Cutler had Shanahan and Bates at his side; he and Brandon Marshall had career years and made the Pro Bowl; Cutler had the same starting offensive line in all 16 games and was sacked only 11 times. And the Broncos still found a way to miss the playoffs.
Cutler doesn't see his luck changing, nor the need for it. ''I was equipped to take advantage of [the opportunity in Denver]. We did pretty well in [2008],'' he said. ''I'm the same guy.''
Actually, he's better. There is no doubt that Cutler is more mature and smarter now than he was then. He's ready to win. But considering his star-crossed history, it remains to be seen if his fate is in his own hands.

From his previous works, Complications and Better, we learned (a) to count things (e.g. Apgar Score) and (b) to write something (e.g. The Velluvial Matrix).

European SEMI Award Guidelines
The Award:
The European SEMI Award has been established to recognize significant contributions to the European semiconductor, microsystems, photovoltaic and display industries by individuals working in universities, research institutes or industry. This award, which demonstrates the industry's high esteem for the recipient, is given annually.
The European Awards Committee consists of experts representing semiconductor, microsystem and photovoltaic related manufacturing companies, equipment and materials suppliers, research institutes and universities. The committee reviews nominations and applications and selects the award recipient.
Eligible candidates have produced a significant advancement, product or invention of exceptional value to the semiconductor, microsystem or photovoltaic industry.
Selection Guidelines:
The contribution(s) should be related to the semiconductor, photovoltaic, microsystems, display, or lighting industries.
Preferably, the contribution to be recognized is, or is related to: equipment for assembly/test and wafer fabrication; or the preparation of materials of importance to the semiconductor device, microsystems, photovoltaic, display or lighting industries. The contribution does not have to be hardware. Significant process inventions or enhancements also qualify. Whatever the form, it must have a profound impact upon one of the manufacturing industries listed above.
The scope of the contribution is the key issue – did it have a major impact on the overall industry?
There are many contributions which affect specific, narrow areas of manufacturing. Some of these may be worthy of awards. However, preference for the European SEMI Award will be given to those contributions, which are of a broad nature, having significance to the overall semiconductor, microsystems, photovoltaic or display industries.
The contribution must have been utilized in the semiconductor, microsystems, photovoltaic or display industries for at least three years.
Truly profound contributions are judged and proved worthy over a period of years. To be considered, a contribution must have demonstrated its value for three years before it can be submitted for consideration.
The recipient may be either the originator of the contribution or one who has made significant enhancements, which enabled its successful implementation into the commercial market.
We tend to think of originators or inventors as the key persons in the introduction of new technology. In many cases, this is not true. Another person may see more clearly the value of the idea, develop it into a useful from and successfully apply it within the semiconductor, microsystems, photovoltaic or display industries. If this is the case, the implementor is worthy of the award.
A particular emphasis is placed upon the long range contributions of an individual to our industry.
Multiple contributions by an individual to a science or technology over a period of years or contributions in a variety of disciplines will, in most cases, take precedence over a single contribution. This is an opportunity to honor our industry's heroes.
Areas of Consideration:
The following list of possible award categories is only a guide for determining the contribution of a nominee:
- Process Materials
- Manufacturing
- Design
- Process Control/Inspection
- Assembly/Packaging
- Test
- Robotics/Automation
- Standardization

Zanna Campanula of the revolutionary trousers
how long would it take me by train from Berlin to Ulan Bator, i wonder? it takes at least 12 hours (if not much more) by air via Moscow. i have no idea why i want to go to Mongolia. i think it's from watching films about people who live in yurts and drink buttery tea. (ha, it's the butter connection!) also i would quite like a herd of camels. and some of these.

What have I read, what have I learned, what have I proved to myself, that's what I want to know. Not about the random highs, but the necessary and sustained lows. Not about the chaos, but about the easy order of silence. Bloody 'ell I sound like a Vulcan. But no, seriously, my point is, I think 2014 has made me a better artist.
These are men of the north country, a happy band of brothers who have staked their future on one roll of the dice. Or so it would seem were it not for the man who has stepped in to back the musical endeavours of Manchester-based band, Alias Kid.
Ella on the Run caught the music industry's attention earlier this year when she featured on Glastonbury's Emerging Artist list. I first got to know Ella on the Run when she released her single Golden Boys.
If you went into a record shop and bought a CD - I know, it doesn't happen very often any more - of your favourite band and you found out that the money you paid was mostly going to the act that sold the most records that week and not your favourite band then you would be rightly miffed. Unfortunately, the current Spotify model works just like that.
Fresh from the release of their new album(s) I had a chat with, drummer, Santos Montano of Old Man Gloom about music and messing with the press.
For me, the idea of 'campaigning' isn't something I was completely aware that I did. I've always been the type of person to chase down every opportunity ferociously and, as a music leader, offering opportunities and sharing my experience is at the core of what I do...
Next door from me is a blue plaque remembering the tenancy of one Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Soho's enduring attraction as a global destination has always depended on building around and adding to what has gone before. Not by removing it. Not by demolishing it.
I am in London to interview Key Kobayashi, elusive producer of heavy metal upstarts, Babymetal. It is lashing with rain and everyone is lost inside the Brixton Academy venue or stuffing their faces with chicken at Nandos.
Why are music venues in the UK dropping like flies? Is it due to abatement notices and local council bureaucracy? Is it down to young people now believing that music careers are achieved by attending auditions for TV shows? Thanks a bunch, Simon Cowell!
In my day, compared to today, it was a simpler form of bullying - not that I am condoning it in any way - but it was face to face, name calling, physical and mental hurts, you knew the name and the face of the bullies, you knew the familiar outlines as they came towards you so you could run in the opposite direction. Today not only do you have to contend with what I went through you also have to contend with the cyber bullying - the nameless and faceless who say the most disgusting things because they feel they have an anonymity and an autonomy to behave without repercussion.
I love visiting Paris...the food, the history, the arrogance, everything that tells me I'm a tourist. My sister is a hard core Francophile. She ran away to live the dream there, ended up fluent, and a professor at La Sorbonne.
Of course, you can resist all you want. Ultimately though resistance is futile. Like it or not, Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree, Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!, Little Drummer Boy/ Peace on Earth, Wombling Merry Christmas and many others besides will eventually get lodged into your brain and you won't be able to get them out again until New Year at the very earliest.
He coped admirably with the mix and allowed Lazuli's layered sonic tapestries and dynamic arrangements to thrive, accompanied by some delightfully theatrical lighting, befitting entirely the shifting moods of the pieces.
There's no doubt that this time of year offers more opportunities to stretch our vocal prowess whether singing in church, joining in a few impromptu carols at the local train station or yodeling along to Julie Andrews on Christmas Day after a few glasses of port. In fact, it's almost impossible to avoid the strains of festive songs whether we're in the supermarket, on public transport or at a street corner.
It's that time of year again: excitement in the air, cheesy songs on the radio, an indescribable feeling of fun and joy in your heart.... yep, that's right, it's Britney's birthday week!
There's no doubt that Dave added needed musical textures to Ray's songs, which are easily among the greatest in popular music, such as the power chords of "You Really Got Me" or "All Day and All of the Night."

After riding the train to the Garfield station, Senator Dick Durbin and Gov. Pat Quinn tour the new facility which was completed on time and budget Thursday morning 10-17-13. Kevin Tanaka/For Sun-Times Media ORG XMIT: CST1310171246420475

The refurbished CTA Red Line south of the Loop reopens Sunday, promising a faster and smoother trip for the 80,000 people who ride that stretch of the L every weekday.
Shut down for five months while it was completely rebuilt, the new track will cut the commute time between 95th Street and downtown by 10 minutes, the CTA says.
Prior to construction, more than 45 percent of the tracks on the south leg of the L's Red Line were in such bad shape that trains could go only 15 to 35 miles an hour. The 15 mph leg was 21/2 times longer than riders had to endure on any other branch.
The nine Red Line stations reopening Sunday — from the 95th Street terminal to Cermak-Chinatown — were closed since May 19 for the massive project, one that CTA president Forrest Claypool described as "unlike any other the CTA had done before. Never in the past have we, or any other railroad, closed 10 miles of a busy rail line, the busiest, completely, and rebuild it in just five months."
"It's a lot smoother," CTA rail instructor Rodney Lawson said while operating on the new Red Line during a preview.
Among other improvements: Stations that didn't have elevators to serve disabled riders — Garfield, 63rd and 87th stations — now have them.

Climate Change Action and More Drilling Likely in Obama's Second Term
November 7th, 2012 | 20
President Barack Obama secured a second four-year term in yesterday's vote. What is the likely outcome of that historic event on energy and environmental issues? Simply put: more of the same. Let me rephrase that slightly. Obama will likely stay the course on his current energy and environmental policies. That means more executive orders like [...]Keep reading »
Romney Cites Energy Report That Advocates Carbon Price
September 18th, 2012 | 14
Mitt Romney wants to fund energy research and development, but not the "green energy" research that Barack Obama has favored. That's the clear takeaway from his answers to the 14 questions posed to the two candidates by Scientific American and ScienceDebate.org. In his answer to the question on "Research and the Future" Romney writes: I [...]Keep reading »
Advanced CO2 Capture Project Abandoned Due to "Uncertain" U.S. Climate Policy
July 14th, 2011 | 15
Citing a weak economy and the "current uncertain status of U.S. climate policy," utility American Electric Power has decided not to proceed with plans to expand CO2 capture and storage technology (CCS) efforts at its Mountaineer power plant in West Virginia. "At this time it doesn't make economic sense to continue work on the commercial [...]Keep reading »
Where on Earth will we store all that captured CO2? Try the U.S. east coast
January 4th, 2010 | 50
Carbon capture and storage—sucking the CO2 from power plant or industrial smokestack emissions—has been cited by everyone from the Bush administration to the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as a key technology in any effort to combat climate change. That's because the world—particularly China, India and the U.S.—burns a lot of coal. Deep [...]Keep reading »
New compound provides a better cage for carbon dioxide
November 30th, 2009 | 5
Capturing carbon dioxide is simple chemistry. In fact, you may have seen it in your high school chem lab. Remember that tightly sealed bottle of sodium hydroxide, aka lye? Simply popping the top off that strong base and exposing it to air resulted in a chemical reaction in which the ambient CO2 was absorbed and [...]Keep reading »

We've seen a lot of stories about Uggs lately. It seems as the world has been taken over by Uggs: Black, white, gray, brown, tall, short, furry, plain. Everything. You wear them with leggings, jeans, shirts, and now even sweat pants. But one thing I haven't heard too much about is the baby Uggs.
I have seen people put these on their one year old children.
Now, babies hate things weighing them down. You have to hold the baby down to change their diaper, let alone try and squeeze these boots on their feet.
If you had a baby (or if you do have a baby), would you ever consider putting these on your baby? Do you think they're ugly, cute, or just ridiculous?

SKU# Collab

Availability: In stock
We are grateful to partner with five remarkable companies so far, to create this line of CollaBARation™ chocolate bars. Each bar exemplifies our shared passion for hand-crafted, small batch, artisan food and drink, and above all, for directly sourcing the best ingredients from real farmers throughout the world.
Dark Milk Chocolate + Ancho Chile & Pistachio (85g / 3oz) James Beard Award-winning Cafe Pasqual's in Sante Fe, NM has long been a favorite restaurant of the Askinosie family, who have been visiting Sante Fe regularly for over 25 years. So the idea to collaBARate™ on a chocolate bar with founder and chef, Katharine Kagel, came naturally. With a heavy nod to the American Southwest, this flavor-forward bar is made with our single origin dark milk chocolate (made with goat's milk) and features ancho chile, pistachios, and Maldon sea salt—all carefully selected ingredients that complement one another with their complexity. We hope this bar takes you on a flavor journey, just like the rich, bold dishes at Cafe Pasqual's.
Dark Milk + Black Licorice (85g / 3oz) This single origin dark milk is 62% Davao, Philippines chocolate with goat's milk, organic sugar, and Fleur de Sel sea salt. The bottom of the bar is sprinkled with salted black licorice that is hand crafted by our friends at Lakristfabriken in Ramlosa, Sweden. We add a touch of anise seed for an addition burst of flavor and texture. This bar has also won several awards: a 2011 silver medal from the London Academy of Chocolate; a 2012 Silver Award from the National Association of Specialty Food Trade; and 2012 Gold and Silver awards for Best Flavored Milk Chocolate Bar in the Americas and the World from the International Chocolate Awards.
Dark Chocolate + Intelligentsia Coffee (85g / 3oz)Single origin chocolate meets single origin coffee in a carefully sourced and meticulously hand crafted culinary experience. The coffee origin changes with Intelligentsia's in-season sourcing. Currently, this bar features Intelligentsia's directly sourced Itzamna, Guatemala coffee. Like us, Intelligentsia works directly with their producers to develop exceptional coffee, and invests continuously into realizing that quality in every cup.
Dark Chocolate + Malted Milk (85g / 3oz) This single origin dark chocolate is a 60% Tenende, Tanzania chocolate, infused with malted milk and crafted in partnership with Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams. We were inspired by the way Jeni's pasteurizes raw milk and cream from small herds of grass-pastured cows to make their intensely creamy, milky ice creams. This bar has a velvety texture with rich, sweet notes of strawberry, vanilla, and floral.
Dark Chocolate + Crunchy Sugar Crystals and Vanilla Bean (85g / 3oz) We partnered with our friend Ari and his carefully-curated specialty foods company, Zingerman's to create this rustic, mexican style chocolate. This single origin dark chocolate is 70% Davao, Philippines with vanilla bean across the back of the bar. The bar is un-conched and refined very little to give the sugar crystals a coarser, crunchy texture.
This collection is nestled inside a seasonal kraft box, perfect for easy gifting.

This game, I admit took a while to grow on me. Between the seemingly repetitive missions and confusing storyline, I nearly returned it. I decided to give it one more try. I'm glad I did because as the plot thickened I found myself immersed in the story of the once great assassin, fallen from glory,...more

Fast trains under attack in Wisconsin
by crandell | 08/17/2010
I've been looking forward to the new train service planned between Chicago and Madison, Wis. So I was disappointed to hear that Scott Walker, a Republican candidate for Governor in Wisconsin, has launched a major attack against passenger trains in Wisconsin. Please ask your friends in Wisconsin to show their support for passenger rail expansion.
Wisconsin was awarded Recovery Act funds to extend the successful Amtrak Hiawatha from Milwaukee to Madison. Walker has promised to stop construction if he is elected.
This week, he held an anti-train rally in Milwaukee and began running TV ads promising to "stop this train." He even set up a special website: http://www.NoTrain.com
The Midwest High Speed Rail Association has set up an action page where Wisconsin residents can show their support. Please show your support for Amtrak expansion at:
Carfree Day Trip: Skiing in Wisconsin

Yes, there are ski slopes close enough to Chicago for a day trip. And no, you don't need a car to get there! Windy City Ski is a new bus service offering round-trip transportation for weekend day trips to ski slops in Wisconsin.

Han Solo, Leia Organa Solo, and Luke Skywalker return in an all-new Star Wars adventure, which will challenge them in ways they never expected - and forever alter their understanding of life and the Force.When Han and Leia Solo arrive at Lando Calrissian's Outer Rim mining operation to help him thwart a hostile takeover, their aim is just to even up the odds and lay down the law. Then monstrous aliens arrive with a message, and mere threats escalate into violent sabotage with mass fatalities. When the dust settles, what began as corporate warfare becomes a battle with much higher stakes - and far deadlier consequences.
Now Han, Leia, and Luke team up once again in a quest to defeat a dangerous adversary bent on galaxy-wide domination. Only this time, the Empire is not the enemy. It is a pair of ruthless geniuses with a lethal ally and a lifelong vendetta against Han Solo. And when the murderous duo gets the drop on Han, he finds himself outgunned in the fight of his life. To save him, and the galaxy, Luke and Leia must brave a gauntlet of treachery, terrorism, and the untold power of an enigmatic artifact capable of bending space, time, and even the Force itself into an apocalyptic nightmare.

"Good trio swan song Novel! Had some story issues"
Luke Skywalker... 'Nuff said.
Everything! Marc makes the book come to life, it's amazing that he's the only one that actually narrates it.
Though it does have it's issues... sure. It is very compelling, so yes.
See, I love the book but there are issues with the story. It's not very consistent and it throws you off stride. (Not the good Timothy Zahn 'of stride') i think Mr. Denning can make great novels, he has shown this, but this could have been better.
(SPOILERS!) Personally I would have thought a better swan song would be a more classical Jedi vs Sith book but instead Troy goes for a more exotic Columi vs Jedi book that leads them to the Not-Mortis. Now this is were it slipped for me.
The monolith wasn't executed well, and it didn't really mesh with the already explained nature of the monoliths in the Clone Wars episodes (and my personal theory, that they are some type of Tho Yor.) The execution of Not-Mortis was not very well done, the Story threw you around, and the characters felt to wide spread in a similar way to the villains in Batman Arkham City.
Nevertheless the issues surrounding this story are problematic but the areas where they are aren't large, therefore it's like a couple bad bites in a brownie. I would definitely suggest this to any star wars novel reader, casual or otherwise. It's the swan song (So far as we know....) to the original trio team up so it can't be passed up. Unfortunately it's the swan song to the original star wars trio team up. :,( Don't actually trust that statement as i'm sure another novel will reveal the death/fate of Han, Luke, and Leia.
Fantasy Novels 4 Life
"Best Star Wars Book of 2013"
The Continuation of life after The Fate Of The Jedi
The regulars of course. Luke, Jaina, Lei,Han,Lando etc.... But the author has created some new characters that rock. I miss a strong female villain. But this book has several.
All of them he should redo every book. He makes the saga great. I hope he is highly paid.
It made me have faith in star wars books again. I love them but the last few were just okay not bad but just okay. this one rocked.
Please have Marc Thompson redo the New Jedi Order but make it unabridged. You would sell a lot of copies. Since they have like 19 books in series that's a lot of cash. do it.
I like scifi and urban fantasy. I don't like romance novels. If you are the same my reviews should help.
"Excellent fun for star wars fans"
Yes, It was a nice brisk read and Marc Thompson is, to me, the quintessential voice for Star Wars books.
The action is good and it is like spending time with old friends.
Marc Thompson is the voice of Star Wars. His narration of the characters are spot on. Just flawless in his execution at all times.
No, but I enjoyed listening a piece at a time. It is a good Star Wars novel. That being said there really isn't such a thing as a GREAT Star Wars novel. They are fun, light reads but nothing awe inspiring.
I'd recommend this book to any Star Wars fan. it is good for all ages. I listened to this one with my 12 year old daughter and she liked it just as much as I did.
"Pretty good. Good full ending."
The emotions, moods, music, feelings, and the ending of this cannot beat by reading.
A good continuation to the other star wars books.
The ending with Luke's revelation.
The ending was unexpected, but I guess it was bound to happen.
"It's nice to see what happens after Apocalypse!"
Absolutely, no questions asked. Marc Thompson brings out the story so vividly in my head that whenever I'm done reading a book that he narrates, I sometimes think that I've "seen" the movie, so powerful is the imagery he creates.
The Cantina scenes; Lando; new characters.
Hmmmm.. Difficult.. very difficult to answer... He does them all best!
The failure to prevent what happens at Lando's mining colony.... The bad decisions of a certain mandalorian.. it was sad :(
I really like the music, voice effects and sound effects that are added to this book, on top of Marc Thompson's stellar performance! My brain really creates an actual movie on the fly in my head !
"Great listen if you're desperate for post FotJ"
This is Troys weakest work that I've read. I've loved his work in LotF and FotJ but this one falls flat
Marc knocks it out of the park again.
"the legend continues"
The star wars saga continues and is still got it.
Luke skywalker he had always been my favorite.
There are to many to name one.
I love these books and this author.
stars for connie
Marc Thompson I love the way he reads the book and how he brings the characters to life. I like the audible books because you get a feel of the action and he seems you are part of the story and you are more aware of the story.
All the old characters was back together and I was glad to see new characters. The story was good and I was kind of glad they was fighting a new foe instead of the just the Sith.
The Sith was present and this will strengthen the story and I hope it will lead to another story. Han, Leia, and Luke are older and the children are older also I think this is how the saga shall proceed.
Action and excitement he makes you see and feel the story. The special FX are also good they help you experience the story better.
I laugh at some of the scenes and I cried when I thought that Luke or Leia may not have made it. I felt sorry for some of the other characters too.
The story was good but they were a little off about Mortis and I think that could have been done a little better. But since I have been following Star Wars so long and I have seen the Clone Wars series it explain it better in one of their episode and the Dawn of the Jedi series by Dark Horse comics explains it better and you can just start putting all the pieces together. But I really enjoyed the book and I was glad that it was set after The Fate of the Jedi I hope that will be more stories In the future to build on the younger characters and other Jedi working together to make the Jedi more stronger.
"Good Book but not much more"
Marc Thompson has the ability to bring this average book into something I enjoy. His skills at bringing characters from a written media into an audio environment is simply amazing. All the star wars characters in my head have his stellar performance bringing them to life.
Fan of sci-fi/fantasy and comedic essays. Possibly three penguins in a man suit.
"Fairly strong finish for the Expanded Universe"
A good standalone novel that brings in elements from across the Star Wars Expanded Universe - reading the other books (and watching related video) will enrich your experience of the story while tie-ins you don't immediately recognize will still stand on their own. Vital elements for a conclusive story.
Not so much the narrator as the overall performance could have cut back on the sound effects. While they sometimes do their intended task of enriching the experience, they ended up doing more distracting than enriching, for me.
The ultimate conclusion to the adventures Han, Luke, and Leia started in A New Hope!
The amount of time and focus spent on the visceral experience of injury seemed to have a disconnect with the cinematic experience presented by most Star Wars stories.

Dover paver pleads guilty to felony theft
A Dover-area contractor pleads guilty to felony theft charges.
William Harrison, owner of Pro Paving, apparently did a not-so-pro job. Alleged victims, homeowners who hired Harrison to pave their driveways, say that Harrison ignored their directions, made unfulfilled promises, and overcharged them.
Harrison was sentenced to two years of probation, and must pay almost $35,000 to nine different customers. He was also ordered to comply with the terms of a Cease and Desist Order, which will require him to get written agreements from customers before starting a job, and to be up front with pricing.
Harrison also plead guilty to a misdemeanor offensive touching charge that came out of a dispute with a customer.

I own a 99 Sebring JXI conv. and my seat belts work sporadically also. I found out that because it is a convertible the seat belts(front only) are controlled by a solenoid located under the center console. These are notorious for failing in this model of car and are quite pricey to fix. I can make mine work most times by moving the position of the seats. Mine has 217K on it and not worth putting a lot of $$$ into so I just deal with it for now. I'm having a time of it right now with my brakes. I replaced front pads and now there is a hissing sound from behind the brake pedal when you step on it and it goes all the way to the floor. I hope it isn't the brake booster 'cause that may end my time with this car. Good Luck!

This was my first year at Vibes in Bridgeport, CT. This is another AXVAULT.com shoot
I recorded audio with the zoom h4n field microphone, video is canon t4i f4.5-5.6 55-250 for both clips. The Grace Potter video was shot along with Chris Palermo (he is closer to the stage). I edited both clips.

1 and 1/2 cups non-dairy milk – I use rice
1 cup of fine oatmeal
2 medium ripe bananas, chopped
1/2 cup white flour – I use wheat and gluten free
Pinch of Himalayan salt
1 and 1/2 tbsp of baking powder
Spray oil
1. Put the milk and oatmeal into the blender and blend until well combined
2. Add the bananas, flour, salt and baking powder and blitz until smooth
3. Let it rest for 10mins
4. Heat the frying pan with the spray oil to a medium high heat.
5. Pour the mixture into small rounds, when the bubbles start to pop on the top of the pancake turn it over. Around 2 – 3 minutes on each side.
6. Serve in a stack with fresh fruit and Agave nectar. Enjoy!
This is an amazing Vegan recipe and the whole family prefers these to normal pancakes! Love-Vegan x

Whiskey is a handsome 1-year old pit bull mix puppy who has had everything short of a normal puppyhood so far! This wiggle butt, constant tail-wagger was found roaming on the streets in Philadelphia. Unfortunately, he had been hit by a car and was in severe need of emergency medical care. Whiskey's entire body was covered in asphalt burns and open wounds. His front leg was just dangling and he was unable to put any weight on it. He was just about to be euthanized due to his injuries before one of our volunteers met him and offered to take him into our care. Despite the pain he was in, Whiskey would not stop kissing all of our ... (Read More)volunteers and vet staff. He was brought straight to our veterinary office to get the care he so desperately needed. By some miracle, there were no breaks to any of the bones in his front leg, just severe damage to one of his ligaments. It was torn out of place and needed to be reconstructed. Whiskey had his surgery and has been released from the veterinary office and is living in a foster home with other dogs. He enjoying playing with his foster brothers and really loves to sit in any lap for kisses and petting. Whiskey has about 80% mobility with his leg, but that doesn't hold him back from rough-housing with the best of them!! He is a super sweet puppy, kissing everyone he meets and constantly wiggling for more affection. He does well with other dogs and seems to be good with cats too, just excited like a normal pup. Whiskey is crate trained, house trained and is ready and waiting for his forever family, so if you're looking for a special pup, he's your man! (Less)
