The Man Who Invented Florida (Doc Ford Series #3)by Randy Wayne White
View All Available Formats & Editions
When solitary marine biologist Doc Ford focused his telescope on the woman inthe white boat, he didn't know his life was about to be capsized: that his conniving uncle Tucker Gatrell would discover the Fountain of Youth, that The National Enquirer would write about it, and that the law would beat down his door insearch of three missing men. But Doc Ford is about to find these things out -- the hard way. Because in the shadowy world of Southwest Florida, where gators yawn, cattle craze, and Indian bones are buried, mysteries great and small have found the man to solve them.

A great read, full of history, nuance and stories of Florida's not so distance pass before it got paved over. This book indeed showed him to be the new John MacDonald. Thoroughly enjoyable, and a shame that the books he's churning out almost 20 years later are very shallow in comparison.
I read RWW's Doc Ford novels out of sequence starting with Hunters Moon. It had me hooked. I loved the density of character, the shared and distant past references, of all his books, but The Man Who Invented Florida is his best. Deep Rich Characters, surprising plot twists. I cared more for his characters in this one than all the others. Don't get me wrong, Sanibel Flats, and Hunter's Moon are terriffic! Dark Light is a foray into Stephen King's zones.... re-defining a ghost story. I'm still thinking about it...

ITV gave me 400 tickets: Pundit Robbie Earle reveals just how his tickets came to be used in a Dutch brewery's ambush
Not guilty: Robbie Earle insists he had no idea the World Cup tickets he gave to Keith Higgins would be sold on
ITV was at the centre of a new World Cup ticketing storm last night after it was revealed that it supplied its disgraced football pundit Robbie Earle with an astonishing 400 tickets for the tournament, including 40 for the final with a black market value of at least £2,000 each.
A top ITV executive – one of its four directors of news and sport – helped organise Earle's massive allocation for 11 high-profile matches, including England's group games, with a face value of £70,000.
In contrast, the BBC applied for only 200 tickets for the whole tournament, including 20 seats for the final which will be distributed by a staff lottery.
In an exclusive interview with The Mail on Sunday, ex-footballer Earle claims that he told ITV the seats were for a 'close friend' for use by his family and friends and 'business clients'.
But a Mail on Sunday investigation has established that the friend, Keith Higgins, has also regularly been involved in the unofficial sale of tickets for sold-out international sporting events, concerts and West End shows – including supplying them to a top political public relations firm with close links to the Labour Party.
Earle says he had no idea of his friend's business activities and would never have risked his reputation in football by allowing tickets in his name to be sold on.
Last night, football supporters' groups said the case highlighted how the World Cup organisers favoured sponsors and broadcasters over real fans.
Kevin Miles, of the Football Supporters Association, said: 'The big issue here is why FIFA gives less than half the tickets at the World Cup to real fans.
'It lavishes tickets on corporate sponsors and broadcasters and then those seats go unused or are sold on the black market.'
There are strict rules on the re-sale of tickets because of fears over hooliganism, crime and terrorism, yet ITV News Group director Guy Phillips agreed to Earle's request for the huge number of tickets – including supplying 40 seats with a face value of around £600 each for the World Cup Final on July 11.
And despite the large numbers of tickets involved, ITV says it did not expect the tickets to be passed on.
The revelations come after ITV sacked the ex-footballer from its team covering the tournament in South Africa after a large number of his tickets were used in a so-called 'ambush marketing' stunt by a Dutch brewery.
Earle says he was offered the tickets by ITV last December and had face-to-face meetings with Mr Phillips to discuss his requirements.
He claims no one at ITV questioned why he wanted so many tickets and that he had volunteered that he was passing them on to a friend and that the friend was using them for his own friends and family and business clients.
'I told them that I was giving them to a friend and I even asked if he could pay ITV directly for the tickets he had,' said Earle.
ITV rejects this claim, saying that Earle was given a bill for the tickets when he picked them up from its offices last month and that it would never have agreed to accept payment from a third party.
Earle, who was awarded the MBE in 1999 and had worked for ITV Sport for nine years covering top European and international matches around the world, says that earlier this year he had sent ITV an itemised list of all the games he wanted tickets for.
This list included England's group stage games against the USA, Algeria and Slovenia, other top games including those involving Holland in the early stages of the tournament, and more tickets for the later knockout games in which England were expected to feature and large numbers for the semi-final and final.
Caught out: Girls advertise the Dutch brewing company during the match between Holland and Denmark.
He said: 'I discussed it with Keith and we put in for more than 400 tickets. He never expected to get them all. Normally you put in for say four tickets for a major final and you end up with two.
'But early last year ITV got in touch and said I was getting almost all the tickets I had asked for. The total cost was around £65,000 to £70,000. At this point Keith realised he had asked for too many tickets and I asked ITV if I could cut the number I was taking. But they told me I couldn't as they had been ordered and I'd have to take them.'
On March 8 Mr Phillips wrote to Earle confirming the arrangements. He said: 'Please find attached details of your allocation for the FIFA 2010 World Cup . . . ITV Sport will be in contact with you nearer the time to discuss arrangements for payment.
'We are pleased to be able to tell you that for nine of your chosen matches you will receive the number of tickets you asked for but not necessarily the categories you requested.
'For the other two matches – the Semi-Final on July 6th and the Final on July 11th – we can confirm that you will receive 40 of the 50 tickets you have requested for each match.
'We are hopeful that we will be able to give you the extra ten for each match nearer the time.'
Noisy: The Dutch girls, who were advertising the brewer Bavaria, certainly caught the attention.
Mr Phillips adds that he has enclosed 'a copy of the FIFA rules and regulations about tickets at the World Cup Finals'.
FIFA's terms and conditions ban the transfer or sale of tickets without the organisers' consent. It also prohibits 'Ambush Marketing and Other Marketing Activities'.
The rules also required ITV, as the Ticket Applicant, to 'provide a copy of these general terms and conditions to the individuals receiving tickets' from it.
ITV says that Earle was spoken to on at least three occasions and also sent several letters, including one in May, reminding him that he could not sell on the tickets and that they were to be used only by him and his close family and friends.
Earle claims he had no idea that Mr Higgins intended to sell the tickets and says that he told him the huge number of seats were for his friends and family and clients in the 'music business'.
'He assured me from the outset that there was no way he was going to sell these tickets,' he said.
'I knew it was my reputation on the line and he knew that too. But he is
a friend and I trusted him when he said the tickets would never be out of his control. He has badly let me down and cost me my job at ITV, where I have been for nine years.'
Ambush marketing banned for Olympics
Police will be used to arrest people involved in so-called ambush marketing stunts during the London Olympics.
Anyone attempting to advertise at events at the 2012 Games without signing lucrative marketing deals with the organisers could face criminal prosecution.
The agreement to protect commercial sponsors of the Games was made by the former Labour Government.
The revelation is likely to alarm civil liberties groups because it is thought to be the first time the police have been used to protect the commercial interests of multinational companies from rivals.
A little-known clause in the Olympic Act makes it a criminal offence to engage in unauthorised marketing at the Games or even in the host city.
It will carry a £20,000 fine for people or firms involved in the illegal marketing activities and could see them jailed if they fail to pay the fine.
Legal critics say the Act is too widely drawn because the offence applies to advertising 'of any kind'. It will be an offence to 'distribute documents or articles, the display or projection of words, images, lights or sounds' and applies to 'material which has or may have purposes or uses other than as an advertisement'.
The Act also suggests the final say on what is or is not an offence will be dictated by the Olympic organisers themselves.
Last night the Department for Culture, which is overseeing the Olympics, said police would be called in only as a last resort and added that cases were likely to be dealt with 'informally'.
He told The Mail on Sunday that he had known Mr Higgins for 15 years after the pair were introduced by another ex-footballer, Warren Barton, who played with Earle at Wimbledon in the Nineties.
Earle described Mr Higgins as a 'very close friend' but could not say what he did for a living.
He said: 'He does something in the music business. He is some kind of public relations man, something like that. I don't know exactly.
He said that Mr Higgins had previously supplied him with tickets for West End shows and concerts 'through his music business contacts' and had also given him tickets to use as prizes for charity events.
But The Mail on Sunday has discovered that Mr Higgins has been involved in the selling of tickets for sold-out events for some years.
Staff at top public relations firm Finsbury, which has close relationships with top Labour figures such as Peter Mandelson and Ed Balls, say Mr Higgins regularly supplied the firm and its clients with hard-to-get event tickets.
Mr Higgins's common law wife Mandy Tupper was Office and Hospitality Manager for the firm until about two years ago. During that time 'Keith regularly supplied
tickets that you couldn't get elsewhere', said a senior figure at the firm.
'I got the impression that he did it for a living.'
The couple also arranged for Earle to play in a charity five-a-side match at Chelsea Football Club organised by Finsbury in aid of then Prime Minister Gordon Brown's wife Sarah's fundraising activities.
Between 2002 and 2004 Mr Higgins also ran an events firm, Elite Sports and Tours Limited, from an address in Islington, North London.
The firm never filed accounts and was struck off the companies register in 2004. On company documents Mr Higgins and a fellow director, an Islington pub landlord, give their occupations as 'Tour Rep'.
And last month Mr Higgins listed his personal mobile phone number on the Craigslist website selling tickets for the Capital Radio's Summertime Ball at Wembley Stadium.
Last night Earle said he had not known that his friend had regularly been involved in selling tickets.
He said: 'This all looks really bad. People will think that I must have known Keith was involved in selling tickets and that I got these tickets for him at the World Cup so he could sell them on.
'But that is not the case. I clearly have been naive, but he is my friend. I have known him for years. I trusted him. I have received no money for these tickets and have been promised nothing for them.'
Earle was sent home from the World Cup last week, hours after the South African authorities detained a group of 36 models wearing orange mini-dresses at the Holland-Denmark match who were apparently publicising a Dutch lager company.
Stirring up trouble: The ticket scandal has cost Robbie Earle his job at ITV
It is claimed they were sent to the game to circumvent the exclusive stadium advertising deals between FIFA and multinational companies including US beer giant Budweiser.
A criminal case has now been started against two women alleged to have masterminded the stunt.
Earle had his £150,000 contract with ITV torn up after he confirmed his tickets had been sold on. Eindhoven-based firm StarTripper supplied the seats for the marketing stunt.
The firm, which sells package tours to Dutch fans flying to England to watch Premiership games, sold the tickets for nearly £11,000. The Dutch agency last night confirmed that it had sold a total of 80 tickets for two matches obtained from Earle's ITV allocation.
The firm says that it paid face value for the tickets and sold them for a £2,000 profit.
Earle says that a phone call from ITV head of sport Niall Sloane last Monday lunchtime was the first he heard that his tickets had been sold on and were at the centre of a major police and FIFA investigation.
He said: 'I had been due to join the rest of the team covering the Ivory Coast versus Portugal game, but Niall Sloane said I was being taken off air while it was sorted out. Over the next three hours I made a lot of calls. I spoke to Keith Higgins and he confirmed he had sold the Dutch tickets and that quite a number of others were also out there – that he had sold them on.
'I could not believe what was happening. Then Niall Sloane called again. He said my contract was being terminated. I was booked on the 8.30pm flight that night. I didn't get to say goodbye to the rest of the team. I was in shock. Now I felt like I was leaving by the back door. After nine years I was out. I had spent years earning my good name in football. I was a well-respected pundit. I am on FA committees. I would never have put that at risk trying to earn a bit of money on the side selling tickets. But I trusted my friend. He let me down.'
Friends: Earle and wife Sandra, left, with Keith Higgins and his common law wife Mandy Tupper
Yesterday it was still unclear why ITV did not question why Earle needed so many tickets. The company, along with other broadcasters, including the BBC, which have signed multi-million-pound deals with FIFA to cover the tournament, are offered the right to buy tickets for their staff at face value by the football authorities.
A FIFA spokesman said these tickets were available on a 'proportional basis' determined by the size of the broadcaster's operation in South Africa. But he declined to say how many tickets ITV received..
Last night an ITV spokesman said: 'Robbie Earle signed an official form acknowledging FIFA's rules and regulations. He assured us that these tickets were for his friends and family. Without the knowledge, or approval of ITV or FIFA, he breached this agreement, and passed a substantial number to a third party, flagrantly disregarding the undertaking he had made.'
Last night Keith Higgins was not available for comment.
He declined to meet The Mail on Sunday and did not return calls left on his mobile phone or with his solicitor, Sean Poulier.
He was also not available at the £600,000 home of his common law wife Mandy Tupper in Whetstone, North London.

Schalke know they have to defeat Basel at the Veltins Arena in order to reach the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League.
The Gelsenkirchen outfit occupy third spot in Group E and saw their hopes of progression dented by a 0-0 draw at Steaua Bucharest in matchday five.
Basel, by contrast, climbed into second with a 1-0 victory over group leaders Chelsea and head into Wednesday's pivotal encounter one point ahead of their hosts.
Both teams could still overhaul Chelsea, who welcome Steaua to Stamford Bridge, and win the group with victory, yet Basel need only a point to be sure of qualifying.
History is against the Swiss outfit, however, as they have won just three times in 14 attempts against Bundesliga opposition in UEFA competition.
Basel's last visit to Germany in the Champions League ended in humiliation as Bayern Munich overturned a 1-0 first-leg defeat in the 2011-12 round of 16 with a thumping 7-0 victory.
Schalke can also take heart from claiming victory against Basel on October 1, with a fine half-volley from Julian Draxler settling that encounter.
Jens Keller's charges are looking to reach the knockout stages for the fourth time in seven campaigns, having topped their group for the last two seasons.
Midfielder Jermaine Jones is suspended after collecting three yellow cards, while Dennis Aogo, Marco Hoger and Klaas-Jan Huntelaar are all sidelined with knee injuries.
Schalke will expect Jefferson Farfan to provide their main attacking threat. The Peru international has scored five goals in six games since returning from six weeks out with a groin injury.
Swiss Super League leaders Basel have no fresh injury worries and are unbeaten since August with the exception of Schalke's victory in the reverse meeting.
However, four of Basel's last five domestic games have ended all-square, including a 1-1 draw with Grasshopper on Saturday.

non-stop rain here
the weeks of her dying there
too far away
I say my goodbyes in thought
listening to the rain fall
I make poetry
first thing in the morning
instead of breakfast.
Is a hungry husband
worth my fulfilment?
I've become prone
to silly misjudgments
since my friend died:
arriving late or early,
locking myself outside ...
Early light.
A magpie warbles
down the road.
No-one is out yet
but birds in our street.
Rainy morning
after rainy weeks.
'How is X?'
he asks, long away.
I list all the deaths.
Some of these poems are autobiographical, some are entirely fictional, and some are a mixture of both. The intention is art rather than self-expression. I don't allow factual details to get in the way of poetry! (I do seek emotional truth.) They are works in progress, and may be subject to revision without notice. Completed versions appear in my books. Nevertheless copyright applies to all texts found here. Copyright also applies to almost all photos posted here, most of which are my own, though a few are licensed under Creative Commons.
Thank you for your comments. I read and appreciate them all, and reply here to specific points that seem to need it — or as I have the leisure. Otherwise I reciprocate by reading and commenting on your posts as much as possible.
This month, June 2016, I'm a daily guest blogger at Project 365+1 and will be posting my poems in both places. It's a varied group of Aussie poets and artists; worth taking a look. (Only members can comment there, though. But there is also a facebook page.)

Renulife Violet Wand Ray Model R 11 Electrodes Ozone Mask Manuals Works Great
This item has been shown 0 times.
Renulife Violet Wand Ray Model R 11 Electrodes Ozone Mask Manuals Works Great:
Renulife Violet Wand Ray Model R with 11 Electrodes and Ozone Mask
This Violet Wand also known as a Violet Ray or Tesla unit, is Renulife's ABSOLUTE TOP OF THE LINE, most complete model, the Model "R".
It comes with all eleven electrodes or "wands". They are, Surface or general body electrode, Condenser electrode, External throat electrode, Internal throat electrode, Single eye/nipple electrode, Rake comb electrode, Large body electrode, Spinal electrode, Fulguration/cauterizing electrode, Metal electrode and the ever popular Rectal/Prostate electrode. All of these electrodes (except the metal one) produce a beautiful brilliant violet ray or light when plugged into the main wand handle. Get it close to your skin and receive a mild shock or tingling sensation, the intensity of which is adjustable by the voltage control in the center of the panel. If you turn the voltage control up, all of these electrodes have been tested and produce a VERY strong spark! You can set the output to either Ozone or Violet Ray and the current control selects either External or Internal.
This onecomes with theOZONE MASK,the INSTRUCTION MANUALand some other paperwork.
These units were sold from the early 1900's thru today and were reported to cure everything from hair loss to hernias, acne, sore throat, dandruff, low blood pressure, high blood pressure and even sexual dysfunction!Thecase handle appears to have been repaired, as does the cup on the ozone mask.Case measures 15 X 11 X 5 1/2" and isin very good shape! A few scratches and dings,(see photos). If you have been looking for one of these units to be the cornerstone or "Highlight" (pun intended) of your collection, This is it!
I highly recommend insurance on this item. Always happy to answer any questions! Not for actual use. Sold as-is.

Users get say on which huts to maintain
Relevant offers
Tramping, hunting and mountain biking clubs will be upgrading some backcountry huts and tracks after signing a $700,000 deal with the Conservation Department.
Conservation Minister Nick Smith last night announced a consortium of outdoor recreation clubs would share the money in return for completing up to 107 backcountry projects, including repairs and upgrades to as many as 36 huts and 670 kilometres of track.
The move would involve 10,000 hours of voluntary labour.
The clubs are now calling on their members and the community to tell them what huts or tracks they think need attention.
The consortium includes the Federated Mountain Clubs (FMC) with 17,000 trampers, the New Zealand Deerstalkers Association with 10,000 hunters, and the Trail Fund with 8000 mountain bikers.
FMC president Robin McNeill said the club had identified some projects, but wanted to hear from its members and the community before any decisions were made on which huts and tracks to work on.
Each application would be considered on its merit and could spread throughout the country, he said.
McNeill said he envisaged some of the money would be spent on transporting materials to the remote locations via helicopters.
The volunteers would then do the work and walk back out.
''They have a tramping trip and do a whole lot of good work and have a good time.''
McNeill said some huts, including forestry huts dotted around the country, had been well built, but just needed a few thousand dollars worth of work through one-off projects such as fixing rotten boards to put them in ''good stead'' for years to come.
The money would enable that work to happen, he said.
Smith said some huts had 20 or fewer nights' usage a year but maintenance and inspection costs were $4000 annually.
The facilities were important to New Zealanders, but because usage was low, they were only marginally economic to maintain, he said.
''A far better option than removing these huts is to partner with outdoor clubs who value these remote experiences and are prepared to help maintain them."
The money was granted from the $26 million Community Conservation Partnership Fund, announced in March this year.
It was not from the Conservation Department budget. The department was still be responsible for maintaining more than 900 backcountry huts and 11,500 km of tracks.
Work done on the huts and tracks would also have to meet strict DOC guidelines and be inspected by DOC staff as part of its normal schedule of checks.
However, Smith said it was likely the $700,000 contract would be expanded. It was part of the new direction of the department to work more with communities and businesses, he said.
''We need to change the culture from it being DOC land to it being public conservation land in which as many New Zealanders as possible get out, get involved and connect with their country."

'What's done in Vegas needs to be shared with EVERYBODY': Video exposes extravagance of notorious $820,000 GSA conference
- Total cost of catered food and beverages was $146,527
- Travel expenses for conference planning totalled $100,405.37
- Participants received souvenir books costing more than $8,000
- GSA officials hosted several semi-private parties in their hotel rooms or suites, which were funded by the taxpayer
Embarrassing footage of the General Services Administration's now infamous $820,000 Las Vegas conference has emerged, showing employees destroying office property, downing margaritas, putting on magic shows, and frolicking with a clown.
The conference made headlines this week when the Office of Inspector General published their year-long investigative
report into the Public Buildings Service's 'excessive and wasteful' 2010 training session, forcing a senior government official to resign.
The footage, obtained by the Huffington Post, follows the release of a spoof video of a GSA employee named Hank Terlaje singing about the lavish party and making a joke about their high-spending office culture.
Scroll down for video
Extravagant: A smoking 'angry clown', who is either a GSA employee or a professional, tells guests: 'Meetings are good to have in between breaks.'
The true extravagance of the five-day team-building trip can be seen in the series of videos showing employees boasting about their designer tuxedos, before urging people to 'dispense with the notion that what's done in Vegas stays in Vegas.'
In one video, conference attendees strike poses on a red carpet alongside acting GSA administrator Jeff Neely, who says: 'What's done in Vegas needs to be shared with everybody.'
In another clip, a smoking 'angry clown', who is either a GSA employee or a professional, tells guests: 'Meetings are good to have in between breaks.'
Attendees also performed their own renditions of Frank Sinatra's Luck Be A Lady, watched magic shows and took part in a contest to see who could blow the most bubbles through a hula hoop.
'These videos reinforce once again the complete lack of judgment exhibited during the 2010 Western Regions Conference,' Greg Mecher, a GSA spokesman, said in a statement to The Huffington Post. 'Our agency continues to be appalled by this indefensible behavior, and we are taking every step possible to ensure that nothing like this ever happens again.'
The White House accepted General Services Administration chief Martha Johnson's resignation on Monday after she dismissed two deputies and suspended other career federal employees over the 'over the top' conference, that allegedly also featured a comedian, bicycle giveaways and lavish after-hour receptions in resort suites for federal workers.

Controversial: The White House accepted General Services Administration chief Martha Johnson's resignation after she dismissed two deputies and suspended other career federal employees over the $820,000 conference
The 300-person event at the M Resort Spa and Casino in Henderson, Nevada, included $3,200 for a mind reader, $6,300 on commemorative coin sets, and $75,000 on a training exercise to build a bicycle in 2010.
It also included a $95-per-person dinner and reception as well as various violations of federal laws and policies, and costs for a clown and a comedian, according to the Washington Post.
'As the agency Congress has entrusted with developing the rules followed by other federal agencies for conferences, GSA has a special responsibility to set an example, and that did not occur here,' the inspector general concluded in its report.
Public Buildings Service chief Robert Peck and Johnson's top adviser, Stephen Leeds, were forced out. Four GSA employees who organized the five-day conference have been placed on administrative leave pending further action, a White House official said.
The official spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss details of the embarrassing episode within the federal agency that oversees office space and supplies, transportation and management tasks.
'On his first day in office, President Obama made clear that the people who serve in his administration are keepers of the public trust and that public service is a privilege,' White House chief of staff Jack Lew said in a statement.

'He was outraged by the excessive spending, questionable dealings with contractors and disregard for taxpayer dollars.
'He called for all those responsible to be held fully accountable given that these actions were irresponsible and entirely inconsistent with the expectations that he has set as president.'
The planners spent more than $136,000 on a pre-conference visit to Las Vegas, including $57 lunches, according to an internal review first reported by The Washington Post.
That report also found 'redundant and wasteful' practices, such as hiring outside event planners when the agency already has in-house workers for those tasks. Those outside planners received a $12,000 commission from the resort, which the investigators said 'strongly indicates that further discounts might have been available to GSA if GSA had contracted the hotel directly.'
The report also found costs that exceeded the original projections and officials who skirted federal rules that set aside some contracts for small businesses. The internal review found questionable actions, such as the event planner asking the hotel that an agency employee who arrived a day early get 'a friend of a friend of the owner rate (wink).'
Another agency employee sought a discount on a $98 purse from the hotel gift shop. She received a $30 break.

Plush: One of the expensive rooms in the Las Vegas hotel where the five-day conference took place
The conference also spent $75,000 for a training exercise to assemble 24 bikes that were later donated at the agency's direction to the Boys' and Girls' Club. Any equipment purchased with taxpayer dollars is supposed to be sold during government sales, but planners attempted to skirt those rules by having the trainers claim ownership of the cycles.
Planners spent $31,000 on a 'networking reception' that featured a $19-per-person 'American artisanal cheese display' and $7,000 in sushi. Taxpayers also footed the bill for $5,600 for in-room parties, $3,700 for T-shirts and almost $2,800 in water bottles.
A separate cocktail reception included $1,500 for 'Boursin scalloped potato with Barolo wine-braised short ribs' and a $525 bartender fee for a cash bar. A senior official spent $2,700 entertaining other employees after the closing dinner. And three officials spent almost $400 for rented tuxedos.
All of this occurred during a conference that a regional administrator directed to be '"over the top," bigger and better than previous conferences.'
Sen. Susan Collins, the top Republican on the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, called the conference a 'junket'.
'It is never appropriate for an agency to fund lavish conferences that waste tax dollars,' she said. 'This is especially true at a time when American families are struggling to put food on their own tables and the U.S. government is piling up debt at an historic pace.'
'Over the top': Taxpayers footed the bill for a $3,200 session with a mind reader amongst other lavish expenses
Unnecessary: The luxury $800,000 training conference also allegedly featured a clown
Johnson seemed to agree. 'I find the information in your report to be very troubling as it outlines potential violations of federal procurement laws and agency policy,' Johnson said in a memo that accompanied the inspector general's report.
The White House found out about the draft internal report in early March, and Lew and White House Counsel Kathryn Ruemmler investigated the conference for employees of GSA's western region. Obama later was told of the findings and demanded accountability.
Johnson put in place new rules to prevent future spending, such as dealings that went around bidding rules, ignored contracting requirements and questionable expenses such as tuxedo rentals - but they were not enough to keep her in her job.
'I fell I must step aside as administrator so that the agency can move forward at this time with a fresh leadership team,' Johnson wrote in her resignation. 'Collectively, the people of GSA now must review, repair and rebuild.'
Johnson served as a co-leader for the Obama transition team and previously was a vice president at 90,000-employee Computer Sciences Corporation. During the Clinton administration, she was a White House aide, an official at the Commerce Department and the chief of staff at the General Services Administration.

Absolutely fantastic service from start to finish. It makes your stay at a Disney hotel, without a car, so much easier. The prices may be slightly higher but the convenience and customer service more than compensates.
This was our first time using this service and we were so happy to have every thing we needed when we checked in. It is nice to have essentials that we can not fly with. I recommended you to a friend already. thank you again
Convenient and easy! We ordered from Garden Grocer as part of our family trip to Disney. We ordered a week in advance and everything was delivered on the morning of our arrival. We checked in and the kids were starved. Before our luggage was even delivered I was able to whip up peanut butter and fluff sandwiches and big glasses of milk - disaster averted! Everything was fresh and properly packaged.

Round steel Micron race exhaust. Done about 18000 miles so not mint, but not crashed or scratched. £40 + P&P(or collect and avoid this)
Brand new speedo with 1 mile on the clock. Bought replacement cos zeroing arm had broken off the original, but I ended up part-exing the bike before i had it fitted. £30 + P&P(or collect)
Can probably manage to post pics if you want. I'm located in Basildon, Essex if you want to collect either or both.
Don't like the prices? Make me an offer - neither is any use to me without a Thundercat to put them on!

I was thinking of Morrison the other day after we had a discussion concerning current Major American Authors we hadn't read recently. She certainly qualifies.
Home is a novel by the American author Toni Morrison, originally published in 2012 by Alfred A. Knopf. It tells the story of Frank Money, a 24-year-old African-American veteran of the Korean War, and his journey home "a year after being discharged from an integrated Army into a segregated homeland.
Home received mixed, but mostly positive, reviews. In a starred review, Publishers Weekly described Morrison's novel as "beautiful, brutal, as is Morrison's perfect prose." Writing in the New York Times, Leah Hager Cohen criticized the lack of subtlety in the novel's symbolism, but concluded that, "This work's accomplishment lies in its considerable capacity to make us feel that we are each not only resident but co-owner of, and collectively accountable for, this land we call home." Writing for the Washington Post, Ron Charles wrote, "This scarily quiet tale packs all the thundering themes Morrison has explored before. She's never been more concise, though, and that restraint demonstrates the full range of her power." Erich Schwartzel, of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, noted flashes of "beautiful, tactile writing", but characterized Home as "an easy narrative that...never finds a resplendence to place it alongside [Morrison's] better, more realized work."
This coming Saturday, July[masked], Integrity Books will be hosting a book swap. The event will begin at 5:00 p.m. and will take place at Integrity Books, 23600 Mercantile Rd., Suite 123. Entrance is in the back by the parking lot. Come join us and get some new reading material.

Panasonic Eyes Sanyo's Green Tech in Takeover Bid
Panasonic is planning to take over its rival Sanyo Electric. The deal would create one of the world's largest electronics makers, but Panasonic is not in it for Sanyo's gadgets. Instead, Panasonic wants Sanyo's green-energy pillars: solar-cell technology and rechargeable batteries, Associated Press reports (via International Herald Tribune).
Panasonic does not have a solar panel operation while Sanyo produces solar panels for homes and businesses – it is also a sector likely to grow.
In addition, Sanyo also leads in rechargeable batteries. Panasonic currently makes batteries for Toyota, but a Sanyo deal is important because it supplies batteries for Volkswagen, Honda and Ford. As vehicle's emissions standards tighten, rechargeable battery use is expected to grow in cars like hybrids and electric vehicles.
In September, David McNeill of irishtimes.com questioned if Sanyo's solar ark signaled a company shift or was merely a publicity stunt.
The ark was cited by Norman Weinstien as a structure that integrates the values of utility, beauty, cost, durability, and sustainability.

Mostly great refrigerator
By Andyb66
from Wayne, NJ, United States
Comments about Frigidaire Gallery 25.57 Cu. Ft. Side-by-Side Refrigerator - Smudge-Proof SS w/Gray Sides:
We bought this to replace a failing refrigerator and are mostly happy. Great look, great features, great controls, great interior lighting and ice maker actually works. Only problem is the interior drawers. They are sticky and don't slide evenly, feel kind of cheap.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Love the LED lights
By Teacherprof
from Chicago Suburbs, IL
Our fridge has been installed about a month now and I am happy with it. The LED lights are nice, both to save energy and because they give bright light inside. I like the 3 drawers in the fridge compartment; also like the various bins, etc. in the freezer space. Still haven't seen an electric bill but anticipate it will go down because this is energy star rated.
Good value
By AKir
from Washington, United States
Purchased in November and have enjoyed the space. Nice big door bins. Only complaint is that you cannot turn off the ice maker so it keeps building. Purchasing this at such a high price one would think you would get a few more options.

It's a beautiful refrigerator!
By Ang897
from Denver, CO, United States
I bought this as an open box and received a great deal on it! It's beautiful and keeps my food cold like it should. The only problems I have with it is that some times the ice gets stuck when it's coming out and the alarm will go off. There are times when the ice just flies out everywhere. The crushed ice feature takes a long time to work. I have to wait awhile for my crushed ice. These are minor things really. Overall I am in love with this refrigerator!
If I only knew
By teadun
from Norman, OK, United States
The refrigerator works well and has many features that are nice. The Ice maker jams every once in awhile and when you try to clear the jam, it dumps it all at once which could leave quite a mess. We paid the appliance place for delivery and set-up. When the refrigerator arrived it did not have the catch tray cover. I was told by the delivery guy that this would be delivered to us and they would tell the store where we bought it that it was not included. After about a week I contacted the store and was informed that the owner decided that I had already signed for full delivery and that they would not supply the missing part. Can't blame Frigidaire for this, I should not have signed and learned a valuable lesson there. The only other thing is that the refrigerator makes some very weird noises but nothing that is annoying or that I have not been able to live with.
Love my new Frigidaire!!
