The United States and Right-Wing Dictatorships, 1965-1989

BeschreibungA comparative and comprehensive examination of American policy toward right-wing dictatorships in Africa, Latin America, Europe, and Asia from the 1960s to the end of the Cold War. It examines the debates and changes in American policy and attitudes toward authoritarian regimes that emerged after the Vietnam War. This led to a new framework built around human rights. While Ronald Reagan sought to reverse Carters policy, Congress and the American public opposed those efforts, leading to an end of automatic U.S. support for authoritarian regimes.
Inhaltsverzeichnis1. No acceptable alternative: Mobutu in the Congo; 2. Degrading freedom: the Johnson administration and right-wing dictatorships; 3. Madmen: Richard Nixon, Henry Kissinger, and the quest for order; 4. Morality and diplomacy: the church committee and post-Vietnam foreign policy; 5. A fundamental tenet of foreign policy: Jimmy Carter and human rights; 6. What is the alternative?: the Reagan doctrine and authoritarian regimes; Conclusion.
PortraitDavid F. Schmitz is the Robert Allen Skotheim Chair of History at Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington. He is the author of Thank God They're on our Side: The United States and Right-Wing Dictatorships, 1921-1965; The Tet Offensive: Politics; War, and Public Opinion; Henry L. Stimson: The First Wise Man; and The United States and Fascist Italy, 1922-1940.
Pressestimmen"This book is essential for understanding the central paradox of twentieth-century American foreign policy: why the world's oldest democracy repeatedly backed dictatorships in the name of freedom. Defenders of right-wing dictators argued they were a necessary evil. In his careful study of the collapse of the Cold War consensus since 1965, David Schmitz challenges the notion that this violation of core American values actually served U.S. interests. Friendly tyrants resisted necessary reforms and destroyed the political center, while the 'realist' policy of coddling dictators brought a backlash among foreign populations with long memories. A crucial insight into the uncertain status of America in the world today." Max Paul Friedman, Florida State University "A terrific follow-up volume to Thank God They're on Our Side, by one of our most discerning diplomatic historians. Schmitz lays bare the contradictions in U.S. policy vis-a-vis the developing world in the second half of the Cold War, and forces us to think anew about the price paid for support of dictators." Fredrik Logevall, Cornell University "Nowhere else is Schmitz's story as fully told or rendered with such verve. He shows how Washington's association with right-wing dictatorships has badly compromised the promotion of American values as a vital part of U.S. foreign policy." William O. Walker III, University of Toronto "Schmitz's riveting account of U.S. support of right-wing dictatorships and its tragic consequences for democratic institutions at home and abroad, is indispensable reading for anyone seeking to understand American foreign policy and the contemporary challenges to democracy." Penny Von Eschen, University of Michigan

Dissing non-traditional pets and the stress it buys you
I should've expected it. Whenever anyone writes about something as inflammatory as non-traditional pets, I guess she gets what she deserves. It's like the time I discussed the issue of monkey-keeping (in the negative) and unwittingly unleashed a hailstorm of criticism that went on for weeks. Not-so-veiled threats to my person, included. (I do believe monkey doo was mentioned more than once.)
This time the conversation wasn't so scatologically imbued but, all the same, my e-mail inbox got dogged by those who felt I'd dissed their personal pets. And perhaps I had, but still…
Let me first back up and describe the scenario: It's Tuesday night and I have a deadline. So I come up with my take on best pets for allergic kids. It's something I know lots about, given my own family's issues, but it's also a thing I'd recently covered for Parents Magazine. A two-fer, if you will (though heavy hitter USA Today always gets a more elaborate treatment of most any subject I cover).
Anyhoo, the issue was this: Pet-loving parents of kids who suffer allergies sometimes find themselves in a precarious position. Should they (a) play trial and error with individual dogs and cats; (b) follow doctor's orders and eschew pets altogether; or (c) take the road less followed and take on a less traditional pet?
Assuming (c) was the final answer, I decided to write about which non-traditional pets might be best for allergy-prone kids and their families. Here's a sample of my take on the subject:
As a mother whose only begotten son suffers the disease all veterinarian parents dread, I have a thing or two to offer on the subject of best non-traditional pets for kids whose allergies keep dogs and cats at bay. After all, I've tried them all at some point or another.
Which means I'm armed with opinions on the subject … lots of them. And these include not just my favorites but my failures, too. First up, my take on the five best pets for kids who can't keep dogs and cats.
At that, point, I went on to offer my "best of" list:
1. Rabbits
2. Rats
3. Parakeets and parrotlets (petit parrots)
4. Chickens
5. Goats
Though I did specify that not all these would necessarily interact with their kids' immune systems with equal success, they just might work out. Goats and chickens, in particular might've been a stretch, but hen- and doe-keeper that I am, I couldn't help myself from offering up my personal best-of.
So it went with the worst-of list (and there's no doubt here's where I went wrong). I offered the masses my personal take on the dark side of pet-dom. And as you know, there's nothing like a less-than-stellar take on a favorite pet to urge people to pen some hate mail.
1. Guinea pigs
2. Turtles
3. Snakes and lizards
4. Fish
Just so you know, I did qualify my best- and worst-of lists with words that explained my personal approach. My intent, in the case of the worst-of, was to provide a rationale as well as to soften the blow. But that didn't exactly work.
Snake owners, in particular, cried foul. This, in spite of this qualification:
I love them. That's why I can honestly say: "Been there, done that." And perhaps because I love these slithery reptiles so, I felt uncomfortable keeping a mostly sedentary and therefore ignored animal in my home. Your kids may be different, but in general, I consider snakes and lizards not-so-good pets.
It seems that a great many snake owners feel very protective of their pets' fine qualities. Some even mentioned that I made it seem as if their snakes were not capable of affection (something I do not believe I alluded to, though I will admit to harboring such a belief).
But the worst? That I used the word, "slithery."
OK, I did not say slimy or some other disrespectfully inaccurate term. I used what I believe is a perfectly apropos descriptor: slithery. And they are, right? Having lived with many a reptile, only my turtles and tortoises have defied this description. And yet, I was called out on the basis of my exacting vocabulary.
I do understand the need to defend one's choice of pets … really I do (indeed, this goat and chicken owner does on a constant basis), but was it SO wrong of me to offer my personal opinion in the manner I did?
Here's the article. You decide.

The Age Of Miracles (Ch 26-34)
Summary: Julia and her parents are going to find her Grandfather in Circadia and this place didn't even exist on any map! This is the place Gabby had went to with that boy she found online. This place is literally a Desert. They start asking people if they have seen Julia's grandfather and the people say that haven't seen him and he probably doesn't want them to know that he's there. Then Julia starts seeing people she knows and is surprised. They find Chip's house and go to it. When the family walks into the house they see Chip is having a party. People are dancing, getting high in the corner and drinking. They soon realize that Julia's grandfather is not there and leave. Seth and Julia go over to Sylvia's house and adventure around it and see if there's any life in the house and there is. It's Sylvia and Julia's father. After all that mess, Seth gets sick and they send him off to a new place and Julia never hears from Seth again.
Julia attitude changes when she finds out her dad is cheating on her mom, I mean who wouldn't! She becomes more brave when she comes face to face with her father at Sylvia's house. Her father tells her to go home but she stands her ground and starts to tell him that she could walk back to the house and tell her mother what's been happening been the two of them. Also Seth is standing by her side, defending her and telling her to be brave and that she doesn't have to do anything he says.
The novel doesn't really distort any gender roles but the author describes how the character really is. For example, Gabby, she thinks she's an emo and doesn't have to follow her parents rules. When in reality she's like twelve and she's in the seventh grade. If she was my child and treated me the way she treated her parents in this book, she would of been dead. Another example, Julia's father, he's not loyal, and if he was my husband and I found out that he's cheating, I would get his clothes and put them on Sylvia's porch with a note that says 'Have fun in your new house buddy.'

We're hearing for the first time how the City of Vancouver plans to grant licences to marijuana shops, and it won't be an easy process.
Before however the city moves forward granting any licences, the public will get a say, with hearings at later dates.
City Manager Penny Ballem says shops will be approved by a rigorous points system.
Right now she says there are 85 marijuana-related shops across Vancouver with most on the Downtown Eastside.
"We've come in to try and bring some order to this situation to try and address some of the identified concerns, and also to protect access to people who need this for their well-being."
Licences will cost $30,000 and any new shops will have to apply for a development permit.

Standing outside the court where the lorry driver Stuart Morgan was sentence to life imprisonment for raping and killing the 19 year old student, her father Bernard Figard said: "This man will never pay enough for what he did. I hope he spends the rest of his days rotting in jail. To have found him not guilty would have been like killing my daughter for the second time."
Morgan, 37, of Parkestone in Dorset, attacked Ms Figard after she hitched a lift with him at a motorway service station in Hampshire last December. Detectives believe he carried the body in his lorry for nine days over the Christmas period before burning her clothes and abandoning her body in a lay-by near Worcester.
Although the murder bore hallmarks of the so called Midlands Ripper - suspected of murdering a number of prostitutes and hitch-hikers - Morgan was ruled out after DNA tests.
Speaking through an interpreter Mr Figard said he could not understand how Morgan could have committed such an act and then pleaded not guilty. "Throughout the court case he looked so detached from reality as if he was a total stranger who didn't really belong there. I just felt sickened by his behaviour," he said.
"When I first laid eyes on him in May he just had a blank look on his face and he didn't seem to feel anything or to show any remorse. He was just cold.
"It didn't seem to move him or affect him at all when he heard the graphic descriptions of Celine's ordeal. I wonder if he has any nightmares about what he did to my daughter. How does he feel when he remembers the desperate shout of his powerless victim? How does he feel when he remembers his own hands covered with my beautiful daughter's blood?
"I never really thought that Morgan could walk away from this but my real fear throughout the case was that he may have pleaded insanity or diminished responsibility. That would have been all too easy for him.
"It is beyond my comprehension how a man who has committed such a horrible crime in a moment of madness could have been stupid enough not to get rid of the evidence. Far from that, this monstrous idiot kept my daughter's dead body in the back of his truck with him. What kind of imbicilic creature is he?"
Mr Figard said he still feels anger that the second truck driver, Roger Bouvier, still let Celine go with Morgan despite having reservations.
Detective Superintendent Bob McCamont, who led the murder hunt, described Ms Figard as "the sort of person that anybody would be proud to have as a daughter".
"She was an articulate, honest student from a rural part of France who loved England. She was a lovely girl who spoke English fluently."
The description contrasted with the warped image of Ms Figard that Morgan presented to the court in his defence. He painted a portrait of a "druggie" and a "hussy" who seduced him with hours of their meeting.
Ms Figard was last seen alive at 4.35pm on December 18 climbing aboard Morgan's white Mercedes lorry. Her body remained in the bottom bunk of Morgan's cab throughout the Christmas period. Morgan continued driving and sleeping in the lorry for three days before parking the vehicle outside his house to enjoy Christmas with his 11-year-old son and wife.
It was not until 29 December that Morgan set about disposing of the body. As police forces around the country searched for Ms Figard and the sandy- haired, bearded driver with whom she was last seen, Morgan returned to work
When questioned Morgan admitted giving her a lift, claimed they had consensual sex, but had denied murder. The jury was in disbelieving him. Jailing Morgan for life, Mr Justice Latham told him: "What you did to Celine has caused revulsion in the minds of all right-thinking people.''
Near the busy dual carriageway where Ms Figard's body was dumped, someone has carved a small inscription onto one of the fence posts. It declares the green wooded copse: "Le Jardin de Celine" - Celine's Garden.

Lighter, lower, more agile: World premiere of the new Porsche Cayman
Lighter, lower, more agile: World premiere of the new Porsche Cayman
The new generation of the two-seat mid-engine sports car is debuting in two classic Porsche versions: the Cayman and the Cayman S. The base model is powered by a 2.7-liter flat six-cylinder engine with 275 hp. It accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 5.4 seconds, depending on the equipment, and reaches a top speed of 266 km/h. Its NEDC fuel consumption is 7.7 l/100 km when equipped with Porsche Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK).
The 3.4-liter engine of the Cayman S produces 325 hp; the best possible acceleration from a standstill to 100 km/h is 4.7 seconds with appropriate features. The Cayman S can reach a top speed of 283 km/h, and its NEDC fuel consumption value is 8.0 l/100 km with PDK.
Both sport coupés are equipped with the six-speed manual transmission as standard. The seven-speed PDK is available as an option; it enables faster acceleration and better fuel economy.
Porsche is also upgrading the Cayman with new optional features. For example, the sport coupé is now available with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) for the first time; it controls the distance to the car ahead in traffic and vehicle speed, as well as a specially developed Burmester sound system. Another new feature for the Cayman is the keyless Entry & Drive system, which is available as an option.
Design: new proportions, prominent lines
The new Cayman is more distinctive than ever. Its proportions are new, and yet it is clearly a Porsche sport coupé; an extended wheelbase with shorter overhangs and 18- and 19-inch diameter wheels with larger rolling circumference are identifying visual characteristics of the car's more enhanced driving performance. Its styling is marked by precise lines and razor-sharp sculpted edges. They emphasise the car's low, extended silhouette with the windscreen shifted forward and the roof line that reaches far back. Especially expressive and characteristic are the dynamic recesses in the doors, which guide induction air into the distinctive air scoops on the rear side panels and then directly to the engine. This offers the most prominent visualisation of the concept of a mid-engine car.
From the front end, the new Cayman is marked by its dominant cooling air inlets, which increase in size towards the sides of the car. Just as unique to the new generation of the sport coupé are the large, low rear lid made of aluminium and the rear section with its wrap-around edges. Mounted directly to the rear lid is the thin blade of the rear spoiler, which – in contrast to that of the Boxster – is higher and deploys at a steeper angle. The overall appearance of the Cayman is more independent than before, and it is well-differentiated from the previous model.
The new Porsche Cayman and Cayman S are available for order as of today with first deliveries starting in April 2013. The basic retail price for the Cayman in the GCC is 54,469 USD, whereas the Cayman S is available from 61,945 USD.

Abigail Adams U.S. First Lady, 1744-1818
1 In the new Code of Laws which I suppose it will be necessary for you to make I desire you would Remember the Ladies, and be more generous and favorable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands. Remember all Men would be tyrants if they could. If perticular care and attention is not paid to the Ladies we are determined to foment a Rebelion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation. Letter to John Adams, 31 Mar. 1776 See Defoe 2
2 I can not say that I think you are very generous to the Ladies, for whilst you are proclaiming peace and good will to Men, Emancipating all Nations, you insist upon retaining an absolute power over Wives. But you must remember that Arbitrary power is like most other things which are very hard, very liable to be broken-and notwithstanding all your wise Laws and Maxims we have it in our power not only to free ourselves but to subdue our Masters, and without violence throw both your natural and legal authority at our feet-"Charm by accepting, by submitting sway Yet have our Humor most when we obey." Letter to John Adams, 7 May 1776
3 It is really mortifying, sir, when a woman possessed of a common share of understanding considers the difference of education between the male and female sex, even in those families where education is attended to.... Nay why should your sex wish for such a disparity in those whom they one day intend for companions and associates. Pardon me, sir, if I cannot help sometimes suspecting that this neglect arises in some measure from an ungenerous jealousy of rivals near the throne. Letter to John Thaxter, 15 Feb. 1778
4 These are times in which a genius would wish to live. It is not in the still calm of life, or the repose of a pacific station, that great characters are formed.... Great necessities call out great virtues. Letter to John Quincy Adams, 19 Jan. 1780
5 Patriotism in the female sex is the most disinterested of all virtues. Excluded from honors and from offices, we cannot attach ourselves to the State or Government from having held a place of eminence.... Yet all history and every age exhibit instances of patriotic virtue in the female sex; which considering our situation equals the most heroic of yours. Letter to John Adams, 17 June 1782

1 A Pen is certainly an excellent Instrument, to fix a Mans Attention and to inflame his Ambition. Diary and Autobiography, 14 Nov. 1760
2 The jaws of power are always opened to devour, and her arm is always stretched out, if possible, to destroy the freedom of thinking, speaking, and writing. A Dissertation on the Canon and the Feudal Law (1765)
3 The law, in all vicissitudes of government, fluctuations of the passions, or flights of enthusiasm, will preserve a steady undeviating course; it will not bend to the uncertain wishes, imaginations, and wanton tempers of men.... On the one hand it is inexorable to the cries and lamentations of the prisoners; on the other it is deaf, deaf as an adder to the clamors of the populace. Argument in defense of the British soldiers in the Boston Massacre Trials, 4 Dec. 1770 See Bible 114; Algernon Sidney 1
4 A government of laws, and not of men. "Novanglus Papers" no. 7 (1774). Almost certainly derived from James Harrington, but Adams's use of the phrase gave it wide circulation in the United States. He also used "government of laws, and not of men" in the Declaration of Rights drafted for the Massachusetts Constitution in 1780. See Cox 1; Gerald Ford 3; James Harrington 1
5 The judicial power ought to be distinct from both the legislative and executive, and independent upon both, that so it may be a check upon both, as both should be checks upon that. "Thoughts on Government" (1776)
6 I agree with you, that in Politicks the Middle Way is none at all. Letter to Horatio Gates, 23 Mar. 1776
7 The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America.-I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires, and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more. Letter to Abigail Adams, 3 July 1776
8 I am but an ordinary Man. The Times alone have destined me to Fame-and even these have not been able to give me, much.... Yet some great Events, some cutting Expressions, some mean Hypocrisies, have at Times, thrown this Assemblage of Sloth, Sleep, and littleness into Rage a little like a Lion. Diary and Autobiography, 26 Apr. 1779
9 I must study Politicks and War that my sons may have liberty to study Mathematicks and Philosophy. My sons ought to study Mathematicks and Philosophy, Geography, natural History, Naval Architecture, navigation, Commerce and Agriculture, in order to give their Children a right to study Painting, Poetry, Musick, Architecture, Statuary, Tapestry, and Porcelaine. Letter to Abigail Adams, 12 May 1780
10 Amidst your Ardor for Greek and Latin I hope you will not forget your mother Tongue. Read Somewhat in the English Poets every day.... You will never be alone, with a Poet in your Poket. You will never have an idle Hour. Letter to John Quincy Adams, 14 May 1781
11 You are afraid of the one-I, of the few. We agree perfectly that the many should have a full fair and perfect Representation.-You are Apprehensive of Monarchy; I, of Aristocracy. I would therefore have given more Power to the President and less to the Senate. Letter to Thomas Jefferson, 6 Dec. 1787
12 But my Country has in its Wisdom contrived for me the most insignificant Office [the vice-presidency] that ever the invention of Man contrived or his Imagination conceived: and as I can do neither good nor Evil, I must be borne away by Others and meet the common Fate. Letter to Abigail Adams, 19 Dec. 1793

What metrics are you looking for in the report?
Feb 11, 2010 at 12:06 UTC
What I would love to see is bandwidth usage reports for the network. Though I am sure it can't do that. (we are looking into a network analyzer solutions for that. )
I guess if it could report about latency between nodes, or packet losss/flakiness that would be good.
Feb 11, 2010 at 12:08 UTC
SpiceWorks is not really the best tool here as it is not realtime monitoring. We use Cacti and SmokePing and they work well for us (also both free).
Feb 11, 2010 at 12:28 UTC
akp982 is an IT service provider.
As justin said spiceworks doesn't have this built in at the moment.
Feb 11, 2010 at 4:14 UTC
regarding cacti/smokeping -- do you just install this on nodes, and it can run in the background, and report info or something like that?
Feb 12, 2010 at 7:32 UTC
We run ours on some lightweight monitoring servers (which are VMs) and access the graphs through a web interface. As long as you have SNMP set up nothing else is needed on the clients
Feb 15, 2010 at 6:02 UTC
I dont see SNMP in the list of services. Does that mean it is not set up?

On a windows box you usually need to add it under add remove windows components

Talk Talk Digital Heroes 2013 winner Pam Haigh is the founder of World Stories - a free online collection of short stories, which aims to improve literacy skills for children, particularly those with English as an additional language.
She won the prize for the east of the UK last year, and won £5,000 to put towards her project.
Pam recently left the charity following a busy 12 months trying to spread the word in an attempt to help boost the reading skills of youngsters around the country, along with her hardworking team.
''KidsOut have promoted the award to all our supporters resulting in the local paper doing a feature about the award.'' says Carol Stewart - a writer, storyteller and broadcaster from World Stories.
''The project is going well and teachers are registering with World Stories on a weekly basis,'' she adds.
In fact, the organisation are now working to make World Stories accessible to children with Special Educational Needs.
''We also aim to develop a self-assessment tool for children with SEN and disabilities enabling them to feedback the impact of Sensory World Stories.''
Local MP Andrew Selous also attended the Digital Heroes award ceremony and has been supporting KidsOut ever since, this led to KidsOut being invited to host a reception at the House of Commons.
Get involved...
There are various ways people can support or get involved in the World Stories project.
They're always looking for volunteers to help write and record stories from other countries, translate stories or even edit stories.
There are also opportunities to partner with complimentary charities or organisations to enhance the World Stories project and provide funding.
Interested individuals can contact KidsOut at www.kidsout.org.uk or telephone 01525 385252.

Stunning ESTATE 14K Gold & 9.25 CT TW Alexandrite Drop Earrings!
Welcome to ROBINS NEST MIDWEST! May I offer….
AGE: C.1930 or so - possibly earlier or possibly later. It's so hard to say on these beauties!
ITEM: A pair of rose gold drop earrings, screwbacks, with a florette at the top, a star at the center, and a big faceted Alexandrite (I believe) at the bottom. Just so you know, I tested the stones with my Presidium and each went into the "RUBY" section of my tester; since Alexandrite is not on my tester, I am assuming that this is where the stone would lie when tested. Anyway, the stone is very purple and incredibly full of FLASH ranging from light purple to dark purple (with the look of saphiret). Because of this coloring, the stone is most likely lab created and should not be confused with the blue/green NATURAL Alexandrite found in Russia.
CONDITION: Excellent with no problems I can spot. Screw mechanisms work as they should. Conversion to pierced earrings would be pretty easy for any jeweler.
METAL CONTENT: 14K Gold
HALLMARKS: 14K H which means the earrings are American manufactured.
SIZE: From top of flower to bottom of stone measures 1-5/8"; width at the widest point is 1/2". Stones measure 11mm (4.75 Carats each) -- that's 9.25CT TW of gemstone!
WEIGHT: 6.8 grams combined
FINAL COMMENTS: WoW! Don't let these pass by!
Anyone want?
Buy with Confidence. ROBINS NEST MIDWEST has the highest rating a shop can attain on Ruby Lane.
YES – I do offer layaway on large purchases – just contact me for my terms. _____________________________________
RE INTERNATIONAL DELIVERY – Please contact me PRIOR to placing an order to see if I can ship to your country. If I can, I will quote postal rates at that time.
10 other shoppers have this item in their Cart or Wish List .

Welcome to My Shop! May Your Stay be a Pleasant One!

Dating as an Otaku
Labels: blah , View Comments
If you guessed by the title, I'm currently dating a very nice girl. How we met was interesting, she attended the blogging panel I hosted at Metrocon. Every single time our eyes would meet, I would lose my train of thought. After my panel was over, I gathered some courage and asked her if she wanted to hang out with me for the rest of the day, she said yes. We talked and had a good time. When the day ended, we exchanged cell numbers and emails. We did some more talking and we confessed to each other.
I personally think it's better to date someone who is into the same hobby as you because they already understand were you're coming from. I have dated women who are not anime fans and let me tell you, it's a pain. I pretty much tell them to piss off because if you can't understand my hobby, then they won't understand me. I have actually have not been watching that much anime since I have been her dating this girl. It seems I'm losing my otaku roots, lol.
By the way, my girlfriend is going to start writing posts here once a week. So, how is the dating scene for you?

Day Twenty Three..
I step into the shack. The stench almost has a human quality, assaulting me immediately, intentionally and without mercy. My eyes begin to burn as the smell of rotting flesh takes on new meaning when I see the source. A body lies on a cot, partially decomposed, mouth agape, propped up facing me, shotgun still clasped between two juicy hands. The flesh is beginning to bubble and sag on the bones. The stomach is large and distended beneath a frayed flight jacket. My knees begin to shake under a fresh wave of odor. My mind swimming, I turn away from the body in an attempt to shove down the screaming terror now taking over every thought, but this effort is wasted as my eyes involuntarily circle the room.
A bucket hanging low against the wall next to my boot is full of fluid and human filth. What were once herbs and vegetables in an Aerobed garden are rotting in the dank of the shed, gnats circling everything like a plague. And the walls, oddly steamy, are lined with warped papers. Some handwritten notes, some blood streaked cries for clemency, some newspaper clippings that look older than me, and a map against the back wall covered with pictures of people covered in boils and lesions, many of them weeping.
I find my feet giving out and as my knees are still shaking I shove my body out of the room for a moment, sucking in more gasps of freezing winter air.
Moments pass. My right mind returns.
Can I face the corpse again? I keep unwillingly imagining that face over and over, lips cracked, eyes wide. Shudders begin to move from my legs up to my shoulders.
I don't have a choice. I left Danton for answers.
For a moment I consider taking a day or an evening before going back in, but that would make it more difficult not less.
I yank the door open again and instantaneously stare at the ground, working my way well past the body before I dare look up again. Towards the back, this map is less disconcerting on its own. I see that the pictures aren't dated and many of them seem to be magazine clippings themselves. When I was a girl my dermatologist uncle had specialist magazines like these in his office. They were disgusting at the time but as I grew up I grasped that only a few of the patients were in serious trouble. That may or may not be the case with these pictures. I begin to pull off the pictures and see that the map is of the United States, and is marked with four different highlighter colors. A yellow circle of about five states in the center of the country is labeled in a makeshift legend as "I," the pink and green rings that follow are "?" and "??" and the blue is marked "S." Clearly his –I thought it was a 'he,' I won't look again to be sure though- own private labeling system.
The newspaper clippings are a collection of a nonsensical stream of consciousness, moments in human history that meant absolutely nothing to the development of it.
Andersons set stake in western Mass
Girl Drowns in CO
Steamy Summers Encourage Travelers
The titles go on. The notes between are garbles of arrows and exclamation points. The handwriting is utterly illegible. I find a 'there' there and a 'where' here, but nothing connects. A symbol tucked in a corner catches my eye. A circle with an 'X' in the middle of it, on a simple square piece of scratch paper. On the back, in majestic and sweeping handwriting that cannot possibly be the same as his it says,
Let it go.
XOXO, Georgia
For some reason I tuck the paper into my pocket just as I see the set of stairs leading to a loft that sit directly behind me.

Leona Lewis hopes "Echo" will resound
By Craig McLean
LONDON (Billboard) - Violence and theft. Not words one would normally associate with Leona Lewis, the squeaky-clean winner of "The X Factor," who went on to stunning worldwide success with her debut album, "Spirit."
Nor, one imagines, exactly how Clive Davis, Simon Cowell and Sony Music Entertainment envisaged the comeback push for the British singer.
While the promotional campaign for Lewis' debut was hitch-free, the setup for its follow-up, "Echo" -- released November 16 in the United Kingdom on Cowell's Syco Music and a day later in the United States on J -- has been anything but smooth.
First, in mid-August, three songs from the album sessions leaked onto the Internet, reportedly after Syco's IT system was hacked.
Then, more dramatically, Lewis was assaulted October 14 during a London book signing for her autobiography, "Dreams." The man accused of punching her in the head was committed under the United Kingdom's Mental Health Act.
"It was a shock," Lewis said of the attack, which left her bruised. "I was very sore. The main thing is that I'm still alive."
By the time Billboard caught up with her, two weeks after the incident, she even was able to smile about it, particularly the tabloid reports that Lou Al-Chamaa -- the childhood sweetheart with whom Lewis still lives in her working-class home neighborhood of Hackney in northeast London -- rushed in to tackle her assailant.
"He wasn't even there," she said. "That makes me laugh. I'm sure if he was there, he would have. My dad and my brothers weren't there (either). They're usually at different things that I do. But I'm so glad that they weren't. Because, oh, my God ..." Continued...

The Best In Show category at Crufts is the highlight of the yearly dog show, but this year one dog stood out not for his win, but for his name.
His name is Alan.
OMG. One of the dogs in the #Crufts final is called Alan. I love it.
— Ruth Davidson (@RuthDavidsonMSP) March 12, 2017
#Crufts come on Alan the Lakeland Terrier (we like dogs who look like dogs)
— Ian Smith (@Iancfp) March 12, 2017
I'd vote for any dog called #Alan #Crufts
— steven collins (@lostinfitness) March 12, 2017
Alan is but a simple dog from the West Midlands, a humble Lakeland Terrier. His modesty stood out especially when most other dogs there had names like this…

Now back to Alan. Look at him. LOOK AT ALAN!
GO ON MY SON #Crufts pic.twitter.com/mmE9en60Mg

Reckon I'm gonna back #alan cos he looks like he's made out of cylinders #Crufts
— cosmicmindcomics (@cosmic_k8) March 12, 2017
But Alan didn't win this year. Alan was robbed of his title by an American Cocker Spaniel, who was unfortunately not named Alan (he's called Miami).
*shakes head* #crufts2017 #crufts
Alan, you were robbed.
— Amy Johnson (@Hairlesswhisper) March 12, 2017
It's almost the same injustice felt as when Eric the Pekingese lost at Crufts last year.
A year on and still not entirely over Eric not winning #Crufts… pic.twitter.com/8Jci92pugT
— Miss L (@ProResting) March 12, 2017
However, there's hope for Alan, as Eric's legacy has remained in our hearts and in our tweets after all this time, proving that everybody loves an underdog.

So I know I want a 3ds, but I want to get the best deal. I want the regular model not the XL. My question is I can't seem to find when they stopped making older models of the DS. I recall when the Ds Lite came out and I could no longer find the older model. Reason I ask is I don't want to wait to long for a deal, then have to pay more for an older model if they stop production on the original 3ds. Am I worrying for no reason or should I jump on any good deal before they are hard to find?

Tips to Help You Let Go Away Boredom and Tiredness When Doing a Movie Marathon
Usually, after watching too many movies, it is most likely to us to get tired and lazy to do any activities afterward. This bad habit of ours should not be left unfix. As we must know that it is, of course, fine for us to do our hobby, which is to watch movies (nonton movie), yet after that, we must get back to do what we are responsible for doing such as doing homework and house choruses. So, in order to help us prevent ourselves from getting lazy after watching movies for hours, here one of the tips we can follow.
– Replace your unhealthy snacks with healthy food
If you are usually watching a movie while being accompanied by snacks that contain unhealthy ingredients such as MSG, it will help you prevent getting lazy if you replace those unhealthy snacks with healthy foods, such as cakes or biscuits. Other than that, if you are afraid of getting fat, you can replace them with fruit such as oranges, apples, or grapes.

Leech Lake Band pushes ahead with governmental reform
Cass Lake - The Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe will host a three-day "Build our Nation" convention which kicks off at noon Tuesday, Sept. 17 with a Powwow and Informational Fair, followed by a "Nation-Building 101" educational session on Wednesday, and wraps up on Thursday with a gathering of community leaders at the Local Indian Council ("LIC") Summit. The event's purpose is to further engage Band members in the governmental reform efforts. Last week, over 120 Band members were pre-registered for the event within a three day period.
"It is encouraging that our people really want to roll up their sleeves and get involved in the Band's governmental reform initiatives," said the Band's Chairwoman Carri Jones in reference to the high number of pre-registrants. "For these efforts to be a success, it must be driven by the Band membership because the final product—a revised structure for governance—has to be a reflection of our collective vision for the future in order for it to work."
On Wednesday, the Native Nations Institute ("NNI"), a Tucson-based organization out of the University of Arizona, will facilitate an educational session on the Nation-Building approach to governance and how employing the principles of that approach can translate into sustainable economic development, more effective and responsive systems of government, and improved community life. Community leaders from the thirteen reservation communities will gather on Thursday for the Local Indian Council ("LIC") Summit to deliberate about making changes to their own governing documents and to continue previous discussions on their role in the Band's restructured government.
With more and more Indian tribes looking to revise their governmental frameworks to create opportunities for progress, entities such as the Native Nations Institute and the St. Paul-based Bush Foundation offer expertise, funding, and leadership development to Indian tribes. Existence of such resources, whereas little or none was available before, is a major factor in the increase of Indian tribes reporting success in constitutional reform initiatives.
"When Indian tribes set their own agendas and priorities based on their cultural values and identity as a nation, they are laying the groundwork for their own future and that's self-determination," said Leroy Staples Fairbanks, the Band's District 3 representative on the Tribal Council. "Solutions for our problems, strategies for moving ahead, and responses to challenges must all be determined by us and for us. I truly believe that this is Leech Lake's pivotal opportunity to rebuild our governance structure to create systems that work for our people."
The Band has already taken initial steps in the direction of a more comprehensive reform effort by beginning work on three separate issues and have already seen tangible results. First, an overhaul of an ambiguous practice in which emergency assistance was provided to individual Band members resulted in the adoption of a more stream-lined policy that provides clearer guidance with checks and balances. The new policy went into effect on July 1st of this year. Also, revision of the Band's governing bylaws is underway which once adopted will, among other things, improve the functionality of the government and increase overall accountability. A third and more aggressive initiative is the separation of operational and financial functions of the Band's existing businesses from those of the tribal government's administrative programs, a responsibility handed to the Economic Development Task Force. That task force is also currently exploring a multitude of corporate model and chartering options in preparation for the establishment of an independent business corporation.
The Build our Nation Convention starts at noon today with a Powwow and Informational Fair at the Northern Lights Casino Events Center in Walker, Minnesota. Wednesday's educational session and Thursday's LIC Summit both run from 8am – 5pm. For more information on this week's events or the Band's governmental reform activities, please visit our website at www.llojibwe.com.

Beachcroft has joined the carbon footprint bandwagon, pledging to reduce its carbon emissions by 5 per cent.
The firm already has one of the lowest footprints in the legal market, producing 4,526 tonnes of carbon dioxide in the last financial year. That is the equivalent of 7.9 tonnes per lawyer.
Beachcroft's footprint is only beaten by Addleshaw Goddard, which produced 5.7 tonnes per lawyer (The Lawyer, 23 July).
Beachcroft has pledged to reduce its carbon usage by a further 5 per cent through energy-saving, waste-saving and flexible working initiatives.
It has set up an environmental committee, led by senior partner Simon Hodson. In each office a champion will be appointed to ensure an ongoing commitment to a reduction in energy consumption and waste production.
Hodson said: "The measures we've introduced are indicative of a firmwide commitment to reducing Beachcroft's impact on the environment. Ultimately they're a key step towards making the business environmentally sustainable for the future."
The firm will be working with its IT departments to automatically switch off idle computers after 7pm. It will also work in conjunction with the CarbonNeutral Company and will purchase emission reductions in a methane capture project in the Rhine-Ruhr area of Germany.

A school caretaker falsely accused of being a paedophile after child porn was planted on his computer by a disgruntled colleague still lives in fear of vigilante attacks, close friends said today.
Neil Weiner, 39, framed his boss Edward Thompson, the caretaker at Swanlea secondary school in east
London, in a bid to get him sacked and take his job.
Today he was jailed for 12 years at the Old Bailey. Judge David Paget told him: "What you did to a decent and honest man was in my view wicked. It is difficult to imagine a more cunning, deceitful or warped course of conduct than yours in this case, or a more malicious one."
Weiner downloaded hundreds of images of child pornography and planted them on Mr Thompson's laptop, which was locked in a cupboard at the school.
He then anonymously sent a CD containing the pornographic images to the police and in a scribbled note claimed they had been downloaded from Mr Thompson's laptop.
Following his arrest in 2006, Mr Thompson, a 62-year-old diabetic, was spat at and attacked in the street.
He and his wife Sandra, 58, were forced to move out of their home near the school and friends today said their lives were made "a complete misery" because of Weiner's actions.
Weiner was found guilty of perverting the course of justice and child porn possession at the Old Bailey last month. He will be on the sex offender register for the rest of his life.
Close friends of Mr Thompson told the Standard that he and his wife were still struggling to get over the "four years of hell" they were put through by Weiner.
"Edward's life was made a complete misery by that man. Imagine walking down the street knowing you are completely innocent and being spat at and called a paedophile," the friend said.
"Once he and his wife were coming home from the theatre and they were set upon by three men in the street. The only reason something really bad didn't happen is because two men stepped in and helped them. It was an extraordinarily difficult time for him and Sandra."
Mr Thompson is still working at Swanlea secondary school but told in court how he was "shunned by almost all of the staff" following the allegations.
Weiner was described in court as a "computer wizard" who is said to have taken an "extreme dislike" to Mr Thompson.
In a statement after Weiner was found guilty, Mr Thompson said: "My life and good name was nearly destroyed by a villain."Reuse content
