Although the Moores family which owns the embattled Littlewoods empire ruled out any outside bids last Thursday, Mr Walker fears he has shown his hand to investors - and they might not like what they see.
Mr Walker admits that the approach to Littlewoods - part of a pounds 1.1bn consortium bid with mail-order group N Brown - was opportunistic in the extreme. "It wasn't part of any strategic grand plan. If you are out jogging and you trip over a golden nugget you don't just carry on running. You stop and pick it up." But he denies that an interest in Littlewoods' clothes to interior furnishings stores, where Iceland has no management expertise, shows a lack of confidence in the existing strategy.
Instead, he points to Iceland's "outstanding track record", noting that of the 3,000 or so companies listed on the stock market, Iceland is one of only 13 to show earnings per share growth in each of the past 10 years. "And we've been doing it for the past 25 years. Our track record is outstanding."
He also insists that Iceland's acquisition record is good, having successfully integrated Bejam, a frozen-food retailer two-and-a-half times Iceland's size that was bought in the late 1980s.
Some investors prefer a different version of events. They recall the ill-fated foray into French frozen food retailing via the pounds 4m acquisition of Au Gel and the ill-timed switch of emphasis away from frozen to chilled food, just as severe price competition between the superstores and the discounters broke out two years ago.
But their biggest concern is that Iceland operates in a fiercely competitive and mature food retailing market. From a peak of almost 250p two years ago, the shares have been dull performers. Like-for-like sales fell by 3.5 per cent in cash terms in July and August, though Mr Walker says they are now positive again.
The problem from an investment angle is that Iceland seems caught between a rock and a hard place. If it sticks to its knitting in frozen food and rolls out 50 or so stores a year on top of the existing 750, it will struggle to achieve the double-digit earnings growth to which the City has become accustomed.
"The prospect of slowing profits growth is not one to get the City very excited about the shares," says one analyst. "An extra strand of potential growth is needed."
A progressive dividend policy and a share buy-back scheme would help to keep fund managers happy - despite its heavy capital expenditure programme, Iceland throws off pots of cash.
But the City is rather bored with companies that have nothing better to do with the surplus money they generate than to give it back to shareholders. As another analyst puts it: "You might as well invest in gilts in that case."
The alternative is for Iceland to embark on an expansion strategy into non-frozen food or overseas activities, but that would increase the risk profile. The Littlewoods approach was certainly no leap in the dark, as Iceland has operated food halls in 38 branches of Littlewoods since 1992. Indeed, Mr Walker reveals that the first feelers were put out to Littlewoods back in January, long before rival bidder Barry Dale, the former Littlewoods chief executive, made his move.
However, Mr Walker insists that there are no other plans to diversify, even if the feeling persists that he may not be able to resist acting on impulse again if another opportunity such as Littlewoods arises. In the meantime, he is concentrating on expanding Iceland in Ireland - north and south of the border.
An olive branch is still being held out to the feuding Littlewoods board members, but Iceland's plans to become what one analyst called "an affordable Marks and Spencer" are very much back in cold storage.
That leaves Mr Walker to contemplate the equally frosty reception Iceland has received in the City this year - the shares currently stand on a substantial discount to the food retailing sector.
If Mr Walker continues to feel his message is not getting across, and the shares fail to defrost, he may have only one exit route. He could always try an emulate other "misunderstood" companies such as Virgin, Amstrad and the Body Shop and try to take Iceland back into private hands. But that is speculation and little reason to hold the shares.

Open the letter
You open the letter and you feel a little breeze come through the room. Inside the letter contains not just a piece of paper bu also a CD. Looking at the CD it reads "Play me" on the front. You decide to insert the disc inside your computer and long and behold the CD contains a video file. You play it and a few moments later you see what looks to be a formal banquet in the background, and a girl in front of the scenery who is very slim, looks very agile, and sexy. You start to wonder that the idea of opening the package was a good idea after all. The girl starts talking "Hello, I'm am here to invite you to the worlds best and entertaining hang out for fellow people with an interest in todays technology. If you have received this letter with the CD, it means you were one of the five hundred chosen out out the many people in the world. We would like for you to attend this formal Banquet and give you something you might find interesting." She holds up the newest in line of technology computer. Its so nice in size and travel packed that you are thinking it cant possibly be given away for free. The girl starts speaking again "Again you are one of the luckiest guys to be receiving this item for being selected. So come on down to Wales England to attend this event. Also, you will see that transportation is already paid for. Hope to see you there." She smiles and the video ends. You look in your envelope and notice a plane ticket to England as well as a train Ticket to Wales. Hmmm... England... You've never been there before... should you take it or not?

On Sunday, if it's not sunny and it's raining I was thinking of driving out towards Mission, taking the back roads. Some of you may choose to go 4 or 5 up, it's totally up to you. Helmet and full leathers are optional, but are strongly advised as the roads may be slippery. When we get there will have slurpees on the patio and maybe an ice cream cone.
The pace will be granny to mild (20- 30 under). Please no passing in the corners, and only pass if you are waved by. Wheelies and stoppies would not be advized, unless you have a wheelie bar. Backing it in is strongly recomended through the corners. Remember single file through the corners, and stagared formation only if there are two lanes.
Let's drive!!!

Thanks for helping!
Went for lunch today.
Love their American there.
Had the souvlaki wrap with olives instead of red onion and with a side of hummus..so delicious! At a reasonable $12 and came with fries, soup or salad. Highly recommend
I like the simplicity of santorini, the food is simple but consistently good. The service is always friendly. They have a great buffet with a large selection of assorted breakfast goods.
Hubby & I visited for lunch one day. The place was empty except for us and yet the service was unbelievably slow. The food was ok, certainly nothing to get excited about or crave in the future. And this must be the only restaurant in a 100km radius that charges for refills. Not interested in going back.
I am new to Summerland and was not aware of this restaurant until the summer of 2016. The first visit we were very impressed with the service, the food and the reasonable prices. So I have been back there twice since the summer and have found the same great food and service. I also like that you can choose where...
if you want breakfast, lunch or dinner this restaurant is the place to go. Good food and great atmosphere .
My husband and I came here for a late breakfast. It was a good, hearty, filling breakfast. Very friendly staff. A handful of locals were there so if the locals like it, it must be good.
good breakfast ordered big bowl, tasty sausages and lots of hash browns. Friendly service from two lovely ladies for a reasonable price
Great little place for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Big menu, lots of variety, reasonably priced. Breakfast is very good and the service is great. Lots of fresh options for lunch and dinner like Greek salad and things.
We have eaten at Santorini's quite a few times when visiting family in Summerland. They offer good family fare at reasonable prices. We had their buffet breakfast this past time and it was very good and lots of assortment of foods. The service was good and pleasant and the decor is clean simple and attractive.
Food is awesome and the service is great too, everyone is so personable and the food is excellent and hot and cooked perfectly

Nov. 18-22: fundamentals for the week
By Elizaveta Belugina, FX BAZOOKA
We expect the last week's theme of continued stimulus to move on into this week. Every day there will be speeches from the FOMC officials. On Wednesday the Fed will release the minutes of its latest meeting. Any unexpected comments about QE tapering will move the market. Most of the FOMC officials favor earlier tapering and the minutes can be less dovish (USD-positive).
Taking into account the remaining uncertainty about the timing of the US stimulus tapering, the economic data from the US will be, as usual, very important. Don't miss the releases of American CPI, retail sales and existing home sales on Wednesday (Nov. 20) and PPI, unemployment claims and Philly Fed manufacturing index on Thursday (Nov. 21). Note that retail sales have to show some growth after correction in September or USD won't be able to rise in the short term.
European figures will also be in the limelight, especially taking the fact the euro zone's economic recovery slowed down in Q3 and French economy actually contracted. Watch German ZEW economic sentiment on Tuesday (Nov. 19), France's, Germany's and euro zone's manufacturing and services PMIs on Thursday and German Ifo business climate on Friday (Nov. 22).
Also stay aware of fact that the euro zone authorities have to reach an agreement on handling and funding banks that fail the coming ECB stress tests by the end of the year, the US has an unfinished budget battle to fight. So, there may be tensions ahead on both sides.
As for JPY, the Bank of Japan will meet on Thursday (Nov. 21). Compared with the Fed and the ECB, the BOJ's policy is the most aggressive in providing monetary stimulus. The BOJ is expected to maintain its ultra-loose policy this month.
For AUD this week will be also influenced by the central bank. The Reserve bank of Australian will release meeting minutes on Tuesday morning. On Wednesday and Thursday we'll get comments from the RBA Assist Governor Debelle and the RBA Governor Stevens. Also note that at the end of last week demand for higher-yielding currencies increased as Chinese prospects became more optimistic after the nation's government had released its reform plan details. If the market gets an impression that these reforms will be undertaken in the foreseeable future, risk appetite could stay lifted in the coming weeks.

Characters in Crime
Unhanged Arthur: Sins Revisited by Coleen Steele
This week, we are publishing excerpts from the manuscripts up for this year's Unhanged Arthur for Best Unpublished First Novel.
In this excerpt of Sins Revisited, Coleen Steele tells the story of an Emergency Task Force officer who finds himself in 1939.
(photo credit: iStock photo)
Galbraith clamped his pipe between his lips and enjoyed a couple of puffs. "You a detective, Mr. Dunn?"
The man shook his head. "Told you—Emergency Task Force. A sniper."
One eyebrow shot up as Galbraith speculated on Dunn's claim, wondering about his use of a military term. Police forces didn't have any use for snipers, and the War had been over for twenty years, so why would the man call himself one?
Galbraith would easily have written it off as just one more thing the younger man was mixed up about, but recalling the wound to Dunn's arm gave him pause. He'd seen wounds like that before.
He hesitated, but his curiosity won out and made him ask, "What exactly do you think happened to the boy?"
Dunn looked just as reluctant to reply. He exhaled noisily. "He's got bruising on him, doesn't he? Like he was in a fight?"
Galbraith felt his stomach clench. The skinned knuckles and slight bruising to the boy's face could be from fighting.
"He fell from there," Dunn said, flicking his hand in the direction of the overpass.
"Or was pushed, or tossed over. There'll be traces of blood on the tracks below or in the gravel."
After reflecting for a moment Galbraith called out to Eddie and waved him over. He met the constable half-way and told him what to search for, then returned to Dunn.
"You seem to know an awful lot about this, Mr. Dunn, yet you claim not to know that boy."
"That's right."
Galbraith took another draw on his pipe but found it spent. He gently knocked out the remnants and ground them into the dirt with his heel before tucking the pipe into his jacket pocket., "You know, you gave Evie—the nurse—quite a start earlier. She said you were raving about some sort of bad joke being played on you."
Dunn grunted.
"There seemed to be some confusion about your wallet."
Getting no response, Galbraith tried another tack. "Mr. Dunn, do you remember what year it is?"
"And do you know where you are?"
"Elgin Station."
Galbraith found it unnerving the way the man answered, as if by rote, with no conviction. "You know, I haven't seen too many cases of it myself, but amnesia isn't unheard of with the kind of bump to the head you took. It can cause all sorts of confusion in a patient's mind. They can forget things, even their own name, or they can just get things mixed up; think they're something or someone they're not. But given time and..." Galbraith trailed off as Eddie cried out and both men turned to see the constable waving, indicating something at his feet.
"Looks like Eddie found your blood." He noted Dunn appeared curiously disheartened by the finding.
"I guess I'm going to have to recommend a full investigation," said Galbraith after a pause.
"Problem is neither Eddie nor Collier know how to run one."
"Then get someone else."
"There isn't anyone else. Not counting Alf Napier, the night man, but his job's mostly
checking doors and chasing truant kids."
Dunn didn't look like he was buying it.
"Dan Gordon—the Chief Constable—died last month, so we've got a vacancy. He's the only one we had with real experience. That's what's needed here."
It took a second or two for it to hit Dunn why Galbraith was staring at him the way he was. When it did, it struck with the force of a two-by-four upside his head. "No way. Absolutely not. You got the wrong guy."

God's Fall Festivals (9 of 10) by Jerry Vines
This content is part of a series.God's Fall Festivals (9 of 10)
Jerry Vines
Leviticus 23:23-44
I want to give a little review for you tonight. Leviticus 23 is one of the great prophetic chapters in the Bible. This chapter gives us the seven feast days in the religious calendar of the Jewish people. Seven special religious holidays. These days are organized around the number seven and around the idea of the Sabbath.
The first four of these feast days we studied last Wednesday night. I call them God's spring festivals. They took place in the first month and in the third month.
Then there is a gap in verse 22 of this chapter. We'll talk about that. You move over to the seventh month on the Jewish religious calendar, and you have the last three of those feast days. They were celebrated in the fall.
So the first four holidays were spring festivals and they took place in March and April. The last three took place in the fall in September and October. I want to tie this together briefly for our high schoolers since they were gone last week.
I have shown you the Old Testament meaning of these first four feast days and I have tied the New Testament to it. I have used a word to try to explain what it means.
The first of those festivals was the Passover feast in verse 5. That points to the redemption of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary. Jesus was crucified during the Passover feast.
The second of these festivals is in verse 6. It is known as the feast of unleaven bread.
I was studying in the Gospels this morning in my own personal Bible study. In the New Testament the Passover and the feast of the unleaven bread merge together. The Passover took place on the fourteenth day. The feast of unleaven bread took place on the fifteenth day. So they merge together by the time you get to the New Testament.
At the feast of the unleaven bread they would eat the bread that had no leaven in it. It was a picture that after you have been redeemed by Jesus, t ...

Charlie Taylor forwarded this photo recently - I had seen it months ago and wondered how such an amazing lineup of machines came about. Here is his explanation:
"The 1947 B Rapide on the far left was my Vincent. Coburn Benson, New England Vincent guru, had advised me that I needed a "B".He was right. Mickey Mouse Antiques of Amherst MA sold it to me - cardboard boxes packed with rust and mouse nests. It became my daily rider for several years, and is the Vincent I wish I'd held onto.
The Norton '66 Atlas was Howie's, and he bought it in Panama after a stint in the Peace Corps in Nicaragua, and drove it all the way to Connecticut, developing what he called 'Norton arm' in the process. 'Norton arm' was akin to 'Vincent knee', which I sometimes had. The former was permanent, and the latter temporary. One night, when Howie was returning from doing the Eleven Step at the Nick, the quick detach wiring harness quickly detached when he hit a pot-hole, and he was plunged into total darkness. It was a dark and stormy night, but fortunately the ignition died too, and he didn't crash. There's a moral in this, but I don't know what it is. Howie sold it to Jocko, and he rode it for several years. Jocko actually paid me to work on this bike, and I did quite a lot to it. After Jocko's untimely demise (he is still greatly missed, as is Howie), I was involved in selling it to Peter Shallenberger (sp?), and I also sold Jocko's magnificently ratty Vincent to a lawyer in upstate New York. I rebuilt the Vincent, and it's in a museum somewhere. Peter didn't ride the Atlas much, making excuses like 'my lizard is inactive'. I lost track of it after that. Where are the Rats of Yesterday?
David the photographer [who took the photograph with a mahogany and brass glass plate camera] bought the '49 Norton International in '66 from Harold Perrault in Shelburne Falls Mass. He used it to commute to work at Mystic Seaport, and eventually Kenny Bean blew it up racing rednecks during a summer party at Dogfight. Rednecks didn't catch him, though. I traded David a Velocette scrambler for the Intersaur, rebuilt it, and rode it for many years, until I restored it and sold it to a collector in Maine. The yuppies were a'comin' in.
I worked on most of these bikes, except for the '60 BSA Goldstar, which was owned by Gold Star Kenny, who packed all his worldly goods on the back, and drove it from Georgia to take a job at the Guild Guitar factory in Westerly R.I. He kept it in razor tune, and it always (almost) started on the first kick which was a good thing, because he weighed about 120 lbs.
Ello's Triumph 3T was the hardest working bike of the lot. It was purchased either at Comerfords or Pride and Clarke in south London. Ello used it to commute to her town-planning job in R.I., and if remember correctly, it morphed into the 'bobber' 650 Thunderbird, which I brought back from London in '75, when we did a trade. The 350 then became Marian's bike when we lived in Tomales CA. She put a lot of miles on it, commuting to Dominican College in San Raphael, a 150-mile round trip. She also used it while working as a reporter for the Point Reyes Light, interviewing geezers about clever ways of doing in gophers etc. When we moved back to Stonington, it sat festering in the barn for several years. After charging the battery and draining the carb, it started right up. I remember the burning carcass of a mouse blowing out the left muffler, followed by its nest. Harsh. Marian rode it down the vineyard road and back, and said, no, I don't want to do this anymore, so we sold it to a lady dentist in Mystic.
The '66 Velocette Thruxton mostly lived in the Quonset hut over the bullshit pit, but was hauled out now and then and started for ceremonial occasions, like this one. I sold it to a couple of guys from up north. It started on the first kick and the sale was sealed.. God loves me.
In the background is the Mosquito Breeding Experiment, Old Blue the Dodge Dart station wagon, whose oil never needed to be changed because David kept ripping the pan out on the dirt road to Dogfight, and the Yellow Truck, a 24-volt Korean War military Dodge which was used for Dogfight dump runs.
But where are the Dogs? Maybe moving invisibly like Civil War soldiers in a Brady photograph.---"

I've heard of holster causing the mags to release, and it can be the holster's fault, the gun's fault, or a combo.
Might be time for a slight "nip & tuck." I'd chamfer the edges if I did so that the mag release didn't snag on the hole edges.

I am relatively new to carrying and most of my experience so far is a Kel Tec P3AT in a Desantis pocket holster due to my work attire. I have only been able to take out my Kahr CW9 a handful of times. Here's what happened over the weekend.
So I'm out to eat with my parents, wife and sister for a early Mother's Day meal Saturday evening and I've got my Kahr in a Crossbreed Supertuck. I'm a skinny guy so I have to position the Supertuck a little around towards my back with the gun between the 4 and 5 o'clock area. So our food comes and I sit up straight with my back against the hard back chair and I hear "click." I'm wondering what the click was and wondering if anyone else heard it and I look around and no one seems to have noticed. So I act like I'm scratching my back and when check the gun it feels like the mag isn't all the way in. I press it and sure enough it snaps back in.
I can't really wear the supertuck anywhere else do to my build and I like the comfort of it there so I'm considering drilling a hole where the mag release presses against the holster. Has anyone else had any trouble with this?

Chances are what happened is the butt of the gun was pushed in by the chair causing it to rotate in the holster depressing the mag release.
I have had the same basic problem before some with guns that had aftermarket mag releases.
You can smooth out/drill out the portion behind the mag release just make sure it does not affect your draw stroke but 99% of the time it will work fine again I think the gun rotated hitting the mag release.
"A first rate man with a third rate gun is far better than the other way around". The gun is a tool, you are the craftsman that makes it work. There are those who say "if I had to do it, I could" yet they never go out and train to do it. Don't let stupid be your mindset. Harryball 2013
My CBST barely rides on the mag release of my GLOCK 19, but has never ejected the magazine. I figure if it ever does, I will make a minor cut to remove the material.

I had this issue with my Supertuck and my MP9c. The fix is to mark where your mag release button is on the holder and pound an indent in the leather at that spot. I actually cut a hole in the leather, but the indent is what the Crossbreed holster guy recommends.
When it happened, I was out with the two Moms (who don't know I carry) and the mag was caught in the back of my shirt. I excused myself and tried to casually hold the mag by pretending to tuck the shirt as I went to the restroom to fix it. No problems since fixing the holster.

I had that problem with my Supertuck carrying a P-11. I filed down the magazine release and have not had the problem since.

My CB did it with my P239... It seems to be a fairly common problem across a broad spectrum of handguns. It is a relatively easy fix (and CB is good on helping), but I would think that this should have been corrected by now...
A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands - love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper - his hands remember the rifle.
I have a SA XD9mmSC. My fingers tend to be a bit stubby, so I replaced the original mag release with a longer one. Worked great, except that when I placed it in my Supertuck, the mag release would depress and the mag would come loose.
Not a good thing.
At first I just drilled a hole where the mag release came in contact with the holster using a forstner bit, and that was fine, the mag did not release, but when I tried to draw it and the extended release would hang up on the hole. So I wound up cutting away the part of the holster where the release would hang and now every thing is fine. No problems.
"We have met the enemy, and it is us." Pogo Possum
I've had this problem on rare occasions. My situation is similar to yours (thin build, carry a G30 around the 4:00 position) but I usually have to put some weight against the holster while it's pushed against a hard surface (wall, wooden chair back, etc.). The problem is a combination of Glock's mag release (there's no flange to protect it) and the flexibility of the holster leather.
"The flock sleep peaceably in their pasture at night because Sheepdogs stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
I have had this happen with multiple guns in multiple holsters. The fixes here do work, although I haven't tried drilling into a leather holster.
"When the need for my gun is abated I will lay it down freely, but until that day comes not even Satan himself could pry it from my cold dead hands."
Thats the very reason I sold my Kahr CW9 , the mag would not stay in.
I even put new parts in it and still no luck.
I have a other guns I can carry so there was no reason to keep it.
Zoe: "Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing?
Book: "Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps."
With holsters, you've got to look out for that possibility. You've also got to be aware of situations you'll be in with your holster and your carry pistol that might cause something out of the ordinary to happen. Nothing is set in stone, and holster makers would never see it coming since they are not you. Some of the best advice I can give you is.....to go ahead and attempt to modify the holster where you think it's warranted. You depend on the combination to save your life if the need arises. Secondly, I would think about where you're wearing the combo, and if there's something you can do to mitigate the problem......hey....it's pretty much engineering on the go when you're working with something new. We're all different, and that means different in so many ways. The ideal holster escapes many, and the many still search. Just like there is no magic bullet, there is no magic holster, pistol, or carry method. It all comes down to you and what you can do with what's given. Next up.....if you're happy with the holster and your carry most of the time...contact the holster maker by phone or email about your experience. Do it tactfully, and I'm almost sure you'll get a response. Some of them will make modifications to your specs. I'm doing R&D for a holster maker myself these days, and they have already made a prototype to my specs. It doesn't matter whether you're new to CC or experienced....nothing is personally tailored. Holsters, pistols, etc...... They are generic until you get them and work with them. That's why most of us here try to put our subjective opinions aside when it comes to answering a question that's sort of left out in the open. We all go through trials and tribulations with CC. Some of us have been going through them longer than others and therefore lend our experiences to those with less experience. Thing is, some see good experiences before others just by circumstance. They sort of luck into what's best for them from the get-go. Others need to chase their tail and lie restless while in search of what's right for them. Field engineering is what I call it, and we're all subject to that. Don't let your minimal or vast experiences weigh you down. We're all here for a common goal, and we'll never be whole until each and every one has found their best. Believe me, you'll know it when it happens.Issue with mag release while carrying
I've mentioned this to a few folks and have gotten nothing but negative feedback.
Other than this not being the norm, what's wrong with using your index finger to drop the mag?

Chapter 10.2 - Ransom
Rachel got to the door then tried to open it. It was locked from inside. She banged on the door.
"Georgina! Don't hurt Honey!" Rachel yelled then stepped back. "What do I do?" She asked then looked to the door and glared. She felt anger pulse throughout her body then she touched the door. It set alight and burnt into dust. Rachel gasped. It was an empty room, nothing was in it. She stepped back then looked around. "Honey! Where are you? Please answer me." She went to another door, again the same as last room. This happened 6 times in a row. "Honey! Don't trust her! Please hear me." Rachel begged silently then tried the remaining doors. 5 doors later and Rachel found a door that led to another corridor. She found 3 of these doors and corridors. Rachel fell to the floor crying. "She's won. I'm so sorry Honey."
NP Honey laughed at a shape made of fire as it battled an ice figure. She clapped as they both disappeared."That's so cool. Will Rach..."
"Stop talking about her! She is nothing, Honey, she will always be weaker and more stupid than me. Understood?"
Honey looked sad then nodded fearfully. "I'm sorry."
Georgina sighed. "I guess I am a bit angry lately. If only she had died, I wouldn't have to resort to this." Georgina grabbed Honey by the wrist then made them both disappear.
NP Rachel ran to the only door left then burnt it down. The door took longer as Rachel was tired and had used a lot of power. "Please." She whispered. The two beds and the crystal figurine were in the room laong with the tables and TV. "Honey!" She yelled then checked the bathroom. "Honey where are you? Please talk to me."
"Honey, Honey(!)" Someone said sarcastically from behind her. Rachel spun around.
"You! Where is she? How'd you do that thing with the doors? Whya re you so powerful?"
Georgina was looking to her nails. "Finished yet? Good. I am powerful becuase i've had 5 years to practice. I was originally strong. The decreased the power gradually as they thought that was the cause of the deaths. You're weaker than me." She said matter-of-factly. "Honey is safe, that is all that is important. I'll make a deal with you: You try to find Honey. If you do, Honey will be released back to you. If you don't and give up: she will be forced to remain with me with you dead and being burnt but with no shields to protect you. Understand?"
Rachel had sat down and looked to the floor. "I have less power in me?"
"Yes, they decreased the dose. My friend, Richard Whiteman, gave me the files to study. When you killed him I had to give the file to Justin Henderson so he could give them back."
"That was all you? You destroyed their family."
Georgina nodded then leant close to her. "Did you like the bomb?" She chuckled then disappeared again. Rachel leant forward and intertwined her fingers. This Georgina was a vicious person and was now threatening Honey.

Mortgage applications sink
Even as interest rates ticked down for the 4th straight week, applications to buy a home fell a third straight week during the May 23 week and are down 54% for the year. Refinance applications, which had perked up in line with declining rates, fell and are down 67% for the year.
Freddie: Housing market stalling
Freddie Mac's Multi-Indicator Market Index is at -3.06, which indicates a weak market that seems to be losing ground. Only 13 states plus D.C. improved in March. Most improving markets are areas benefiting from the energy boom, Freddie said. Fewer than half the markets surveyed are improving vs. last year, when over 90% were.
Same-store sales sag
Sales declined 1.2% in the May 24 week, ICSC-Goldman said. They took the yearly gain to 2.1%, from 2.4% in the prior week. Redbook's survey also fell, to 3.2% from 3.9%. But both surveys are gradually trending higher — Redbook is up 0.7% for the month.
CEO pay jumped in '13, per a Wall Street Journal/Hay Group survey. Overall direct compensation, including base salaries, incentives and more, rose 5.5%, the most since '10.
German joblessness jumped by 24,000 in April, not enough to change the jobless rate from 6.7%. Vacancies also declined by 3,000.
French producer prices fell 0.1% for the month, 0.9% for the year in April. It was the 4th straight decline. Separately, French consumer spending on manufactured goods was flat in April, less than expected. It rose 1.2% for the year.
U.K. retail sales plunged in May, as 16% of CBI survey respondents reported higher volumes vs. a year ago, down from 30% in April and from forecasts for 35%.
EU sentiment up again
The European Commission's economic sentiment index rose higher than expected in May, 0.7 point to 102.7, the 12th rise in 13 months. Both components, industrial and consumer, made progress. France was the only large member country to show a decline.
ECB: progress, risk in finance
Bank risk has declined as banks strengthened their balance sheets and sovereigns enacted fiscal changes, the European Central Bank said in its Financial Stability Review. But the bank warned that a global hunt for yield is leading investors into risky assets, creating "pockets of illiquidity."
China's real estate boom is over, said its biggest residential developer, China Vanke Co., but real demand will persist for years.

9 Investigates: Campaign contributions and Florida natural gas pipeline
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Across the United States, natural gas is quickly becoming a popular option for power companies. According to the U. S. Energy Information Administration, natural gas production in the U.S. has grown every year since 2010.
While many states are tapping into reserves for natural gas, Florida has almost no natural gas reserves and no storage capability. The state receives almost all of its natural gas through two major pipelines, by 2017 a third pipeline will go online thus relieving the pressure on the two existing pipelines which are almost at capacity.
But how the third pipeline moved from idea to reality is raising some questions about the influence exerted by the state's largest utility on the state commission in charge of regulating utilities.
Following his election in 2010, Governor-elect Rick Scott created a transition team to address issues facing the state and develop a plan to address them. On that team was Sam Forrest, Florida Power & Light's vice president of Energy Marketing & Trading. According to documents obtained by Eyewitness News, Forrest suggested the construction of a natural gas pipeline, noting that legislation would be required.
In the 2013 legislative session, lawmakers passed and Governor Scott signed HB 1083. The bill "declares underground natural gas storage to be in public interest," and helped pave the way for FP&L's pipeline proposal.
Under that plan a pipeline stretching from Alabama will deliver natural gas to Florida with FP&L as the main customer. The pipeline will be built by FP&L's parent company NextEra Energy and Houston-based Sabal Trail Transmission. Under an agreement with Florida Public Service Commission, the agency in charge of utilities in the state, FP&L will be allowed to charge its customers for the fuel and fuel transmission costs once the pipeline is active.
Currently, only Texas uses more natural gas than Florida. Unlike Texas, Florida must import almost all of its natural gas and the new pipeline will help ensure that supply.
But the decision to allow FP&L to pass along its cost and secure the pipeline came as the company was spending more than $1 million in the form of campaign contributions to Scott's
re-election PAC and the Republican Party of Florida. According to records obtained by Eyewitness News, FP&L has given at least $500,000 to "Let's Get to Work" and the Florida Republican Party since 2013.
"It causes doubt in the public's mind that decisions are being made in the public's best interest," said Ben Wilcox of Integrity Florida, a nonpartisan government watchdog group.
In a report released last month, Integrity Florida documented the significant muscle exerted by Florida's for-profit utilities, finding more than $18 million in campaign contributions from 2004-2012. The report also detailed the close links between the PSC and former leaders of the utilities, including FP&L.
"These companies wouldn't be giving these campaign contributions and making these lobbying expenditures if they weren't achieving the results that they desire," says Wilcox.
FP&L points out that none of the money donated to political campaigns comes from rate-payers. Instead, the utility says it is shareholders who pay for campaign contributions. The utility also said it approved plans for a new natural gas pipeline is in keeping with recommendations made by the PSC.

"In this absorbing and sensitively-written biography, Douglas Brinkley has captured not only the life and momentous decades of a uniquely American legend, but also the heartbeat of a nation in its times of both triumph and tragedy."
"Walter Cronkite exemplified the glorious age of trusted journalism. In this deeply researched and brilliantly analytic biography, Douglas Brinkley captures his essence. He treats Cronkite as not just an icon, but as a real human with passions, loves, and occasional enmities. It's a fascinating and valuable tale."
"Douglas Brinkley's absorbing and well-researched book recaptures the high solstice of American television journalism and the man who most exemplified that moment.

"Exhaustively researched and beautifully written, Cronkite is a classic. Douglas Brinkley has written his best book yet. This is a fascinating story that will be read for years to come."
"The personal and professional life of Walter Cronkite is an American treasure - and we should all be grateful to Douglas Brinkley for telling it so well."

As a child of the 1970s when I think about Walter Cronkite, I don't really remember seeing him broadcast the news on television. I have watched countless replays and reports on this iconic figure but he seems to me more of as a familiar great uncle. I did meet him once and he came across as that crazy uncle everyone has, who is full of stories that revolve around him. In Cronkite by Douglas Brinkley, it gave me a new perspective on this newsman. He came to be in an age of the new world of television. What I found fascinating is that many of the criticism of television reporting in the day are the same that you hear about the new journalism on the internet. That these news bits are superficial, they are not real reporting, and that anyone now can call themselves a reporter. What you learn in this book is that Cronkite was a make no waves kind of guy. The kind that everyone liked, he had a knack for sharing the events of the day in an easy conversational style. This boy from middle America could connect and until this day still holds the title the most trusted man in television. If he said it, it must be true, you could take his word to the bank as the old maxim goes. Cronkite also was a part of the greatest generation the ones that tried to do the right thing and a precursor to the "me" generation that we live in today. Cronkite covered the great stories of his day, the assassination of President Kennedy, the space race, and world events. As Brinkley masterfully does in his writings he takes you into his world, as if you were a fly on the course of his life. You feel closer to this distant uncle and wish you would have been more appreciative of him while he was still around. Maybe he wasn't as crazy as you thought. A quick read, Cronkite takes you back to a simpler time where the world was not so noisy with information overload and America was the shinny city on the hill. A good read for fans or those who want to learn more about this gentleman from Middle America.
About 15 years ago, I read Walter Cronkite's autobiography, A Reporter's Life, and was extremely disappointed in it. It seemed a superficial and half-hearted attempt at chronicling his life. That may be due to the fact that I read his autobiography about the time I read Personal History by Katharine Graham, an autobiography which won a Pulitzer Prize in 1998. Personal History was an amazing book, meticulously researched and sourced, and insightful. A Reporter's Life suffered in comparison. When I saw that a real historian was writing a biography of Uncle Walter, I bought it right away. I was NOT disappointed. While it is not an "authorized biography," Cronkite's children were helpful to the author, and wanted a complete story of their father told, warts and all. And there are a few warts. Although I figured there was no love lost between Cronkite and his successor as CBS anchorman, Dan Rather, it appears that Cronkite detested Rather – and was elated when Rather's career crashed and burned over some very sloppy reporting about President George W. Bush and his not-so-illustrious career in the Texas Air National Guard during the Viet Nam era. Cronkite is an engaging work of history by an academic who doesn't write like one. And even with all the "warts" revealed, the book's subject still comes out looking like a hero. Douglas Brinkley also evokes superbly the times during which Cronkite was a working journalist – World War II, the Kennedy assassination, the Cold War, the NASA space program -- and sheds light on the people Cronkite worked with and reported on. Cronkite is over 800 pages, heavy enough to serve as a doorstop, but well worth the time it takes to read and absorb it.
I found this to be a very well written and intersting book. Since I don't care for "celebrity" biography, I was a bit concerned at first. But this book is anything but that. As a person who enjoys works of historical biography, I was not disappointed. Brinkley is an excellent writer and Cronkite a very intersting man. A very good book showing the growth of TV media, as well as the intersection between TV media and popular culture. Highly recommend this book.
I grew up in this era and remember Cronkite's Apollo broadcasts as a small boy. Very interesting to know how TV News started and what it has become today. Great read!
I especially liked the historical picture of CBS news and the workings of the press during world and national events and news anchor struggles with management.
A very detailed description of Walter Cronkite's life. Great overview along with the details of Mr. Cronkite's early life and a great description of the anchorman years. Probably a bit too much gossip description or interactions about Dan Rather, Barbara Walters and other competitors involved in the journalism field. But all-in-all a great book too read on an individual who was so well known, trusted and part of 20th Century America.
n 1979 the great David Halberstam wrote a masterful book about the media called The Powers That Be. I don't know if anyone has written a worthy update. Douglas Brinkley tried, using CBS anchor Walter Cronkite as his subject. The biography is interesting but somehow misses being everything it could be. Cronkite's long career paralleled the rise of TV news; perhaps Brinkley should have focused on his active years with CBS from the 50s to the 80s. A lot of space devoted to Walter's long retirement might have been more profitably used in deeper analysis of Vietnam and Watergate coverage. Brinkley can be critical of Cronkite, but he seems unable to pinpoint exactly why the TV news anchor is no longer the oracle he (or she) once was. He also seems overly critical of Dan Rather, ignoring the fact Rather was CBS Evening News anchor longer than Cronkite.
Simply an outstanding book
Great book that provides details of Walter Cronkite's rise to the CBS news editor/anchorman and his passion for unbiased news reporting.

In February this year, French police intercepted one of the dozens of "go-fast" cars which transport cannabis at high speed from Spain to Paris. The seizure – banal in itself –unravelled an extraordinary network of drug-trafficking, money-laundering, fraud and tax evasion which sprawled over the invisible barrier which separates Paris from the city's poor, multi-racial suburbs.
Bank notes handed by clients to street drug dealers in the suburbs were ending up in the safes of seemingly law-abiding, well-heeled citizens in the capital.
Seven prominent Parisians have been arrested in the past few days and accused of "conspiracy to launder money and association with criminals". They include a Green politician, Florence Lamblin, a society lawyer, Robert Sellam, an art dealer, a dentist and a sound engineer.
All deny any connection with drug traffickers. All have been obliged to admit they were smuggling – so they thought – cash into France from undeclared Swiss bank accounts. The cash was, in fact, coming directly from cannabis dealing in the south-western suburbs of Paris. A trio of Moroccan brothers, including a prominent fund manager in Geneva, are alleged to have concocted an elaborate scheme to launder money by balancing two illegal flows of cash. The cannabis profits leaving France were "swapped" for assets hidden in Switzerland which tax cheats or business fraudsters wished to repatriate.
The risky job of smuggling drug-trafficking proceeds over the Franco-Swiss border was avoided. Instead, the drugs cash was handed over in plastic bags to Parisians who had hidden Swiss accounts. The same sums were debited from their banks in Geneva and sent on a complex route through shell companies in London and offshore tax havens to purchase assets for the drug barons in Morocco, Dubai or Spain. A commission was allegedly paid on both transactions.
The three brothers, Meyer El-Maleh, 48, a Geneva-based fund manager, Mardoché El- Maleh, 52, and Nessim El- Maleh, 28, were among the 20 people arrested last week by investigators in Switzerland and France. They are suspected of handling up to €12m (£9.6m) in cash in the past seven months (and far more over the past four years). Assets seized by the police include €2m in cash, gold, artworks and guns.
The arrest of Ms Lamblin, the Green assistant mayor of the 13th arrondissement of Paris, has turned the affair into a political slanging match that could prove deeply embarrassing for the Socialist-Green administration of President François Hollande. The need for tougher action against international money laundering was one of the main issues raised by the Green party in elections last spring.
Ms Lamblin's lawyer, Jérôme Boursican, said at first that she was the victim of a "miscarriage of justice". He later admitted she had been repatriating cash from a €350,000 family bequest held in Geneva for almost a century and never declared to the French tax authorities.
Mr Boursican said: "At the invitation of her bank, my client wanted to repatriate €350,000 from a family bequest placed in a Swiss account in 1920. She took advice from someone she trusted who put her in touch with someone capable of handling this kind of transaction."
He said Ms Lamblin had "no connection whatsoever" with drug trafficking. She was guilty "at most" of not declaring the money to the taxman. She has been released on bail. The accusation of "association with criminals" may prove untenable but the admission of "at most" tax evasion will probably end her political career.
At a time when the Socialist-Green government is turning the tax vice on both the wealthy and the middle classes, this admission was almost as explosive politically as if she had admitted to drug trafficking. At the insistence of an irate Mayor of Paris, Bertrand Delanoë, Ms Lamblin resigned on Saturday and stood down from her position as city councillor.
The affair draws attention to a scarcely concealed secret which is the subject of nudge-nudge conversations among the bourgeoisie of both right and left.
Large sums are systematically hidden from French tax authorities in accounts in Switzerland and Luxembourg. New methods of circumventing ever-tighter border controls are the subject of eager discussion.
Up to 30 well-off Parisians are said to have been using the El-Maleh brothers' services. Most were hiding legitimate assets from the taxman.
One or two are said to have admitted concealing money embezzled from their companies or clients.Reuse content

Hi all-
I just checked the fund drive and it looks like we are getting closer to the
$4000 goal to get the faster internet provider! Thought I'd put in a plug
for the fund drive, particularly given the traffic on the list lately- we
probably need the better system so we don't blow it up! Just kidding- I
sent in my next installment to the fund tonight.

Justin Morneau (Credits below) To win a fantasy league you have to take some chances during your draft and look for potential, not always basing your picks on what a player did the previous year. In this case I have the ultimate sleeper pick at your disposal in Twins first baseman Justin Morneau.We all know the story about the concussion of two years ago and last year's struggles to over come a series of various injuries that left Morneau a shadow of his former self. Justin currently ranks as the 175th player taken in mixed leagues as well as the 17-20th first baseman off the board, meaning here is a player with .300/25/100 potential sitting there 17 rounds into your draft. Being drafted in that position leaves little to risk and certainly all to gain. His career numbers show from 2005-2009 when he played complete seasons he averaged .292/26/100 putting him in the top 10 at first base during that time span. Target Field will definitely effect his numbers a bit but a .280/25/90 ye...
