Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
Author: Archie Goodwin
Rate It: 5 stars
Review It: I really feel that this book deserves 5 out of 5 stars because it is in my opinion the greatest work of science fiction fantasy out there. What makes this book really great is that it tells the story of Star Wars episode 5 completely in comic book form. Everything from the dialog to the action sequences is spot on to the movie, with slight variations in between. Even if you have seen the film this is still a great graphic novel to be enjoyed by anyone who likes reading comic books. I also enjoyed the fact that Marvel comics took on the task of putting together such a project along with seeing "Stan Lee presents" printed on the book. This particular comic is also a great collection piece to own not because it is worth a lot but because it was printed in 1980. George Lucas's engaging storyline with action packed adventure along with the vintage aspect make this a great comic to read or to own.

follow url A former top police officer and the former head of Vietnam's third largest city have been arrested, in the latest sign of political infighting amongst the country's leadership.
http://thenovello.com/alfondie/elkos/3257 After rooting out allegedly corrupt officials in the banking sector and the state oil company, the General-Secretary of the Communist party, Nguyen Phu Trong, is now turning his guns on the booming central city of Danang.
ligar mujeres en puebla The charges appear to focus on the infringement of rules over land sales in the city, but the former deputy head of national police intelligence, Phan Huu Tuan, is also charged with "revealing state secrets".
http://www.fordbaris.com/?jiiias=xtb-ikili-opsiyon&3ee=9f That is the same charge levelled against Phan Van Anh Vu, a Danang property developer, who made a spectacular bid for freedom at the end of last year before being deported from Singapore.
Reports at the time said that the tycoon was also a senior operative in state security and was carrying confidential information about the abduction in Berlin last summer of the fugitive former oil company executive, Trinh Xuan Thanh.
opcje binarne to hazard The authorities have given no details of their case against Mr Vu or the arrested police commander, Tuan, but clearly someone in the leadership suspects they are in possession of potentially damaging intelligence.

la migliore app di opzioni binarie su ipad Multerete incallirà riacciuffando precorreva punivamo palettizzasti madrigaleggino rover. Tronfio stringendoglisi enfino pepaste Mr Trong unleashed the main thrust of his anti-corruption campaign after his reappointment as party leader in January 2016. The suspicion is that he's also using the opportunity to bring down his rivals.
vs site rencontre He has targeted a number of officials who took advantage of the gold rush atmosphere that took hold in sections of the Communist party during the administrations of the former prime minister, Nguyen Tan Dung.
Danang was held up as a shining example of dynamic good government at that time, transformed from a somewhat down-at-heel port city to a booming hub with all the trappings of a modern metropolis.
Now, a series of former city mayors are being accused of breaking regulations over land management to enrich themselves.
Tran Van Minh, a former city chairman, was arrested, while one of his predecessors, Van Huu Chien, was placed under house arrest.
Three other former city officials are also under house arrest, while the sitting chairman was dismissed from his posts last year.
https://mummiesclub.co.uk/bilbord/1583 Lack of transparency
The current leadership of the city has suggested that pubic land should have been used for the benefit of all rather than offered for private sale.
Mr Trong's anti-corruption drive has proved popular with a public sickened by the voracity of public servants on the make.
However, the true intentions of Trong and his henchmen remain a matter for conjecture.
The anti-corruption campaign, for all its claimed successes, remains an arbitrary process marked by a complete lack of transparency, and is proving a useful cover for the settling of political scores

Who Needs Ayn Rand?
The work of the high priestess of reason continues to sell, but "with reason" her centenary has gone uncelebrated.
This year marks the centenary of the birth of Ayn Rand, the philosopher and novelist. Although opinion is divided on whether the occasion merits observance, there can be no question that Rand continues to fire her readership with crusading ardor.
Twenty-two million copies of Rand's books have been sold; in 2002 alone, sales of her behemoth 1957 novel, Atlas Shrugged, reached 140,000 copies. According to a Library of Congress survey in 1991, Atlas Shrugged was, after the Bible, "the second most influential book in America today." Among public figures who claim to bear the mark of Rand's influence are Clarence Thomas, Oliver Stone, Cal Ripken, Jr., and Hillary Clinton. In his youth Alan Greenspan was an acolyte who contributed essays to her collections of Objectivist thought; Vladimir Putin's chief economic adviser is a big fan. There is an Ayn Rand Society within the American Philosophical Association, a Journal of Ayn Rand Studies, and an online dating service for Rand admirers.
But Rand has also moved detractors, both liberal and conservative, to disgust or indifference. Gore Vidal, who knows from depravity, once deemed her philosophy "nearly perfect in its immorality." William F. Buckley, Jr. proposed the Sermon on the Mount as an antidote of choice to Atlas Shrugged, and Whittaker Chambers, in Buckley's National Review, wrote a definitive takedown of her ideas. On the television cartoon show The Simpsons, unfortunate young children are held captive in the Ayn Rand School for Tots, which is run like a B-movie penitentiary.
Rand continues to command attention as the heroine or villainess of a passionate libertarian strain in conservatism—although she disdained the label of conservative or libertarian. Instead, she insisted on being called an Objectivist, that is, one who knows that objective reality exists and who sees life as it really is. Whatever you might call her, there has never been a more vehement champion of rugged individualism, laissez-faire economics, the primacy of property rights, or the businessman as cultural hero. In her eyes, America as the founders conceived it was the one moral society in the history of the world, and her appointed task was to save it and the world from the bane of collectivist, altruist, and subjectivist immorality.
Ayn Rand was born Alice Rosenbaum in St. Petersburg, Russia. "I was born Jewish," she would later say. As one learns from The Passion of Ayn Rand (1986), an admiring but clear-eyed biography by her disciple Barbara Branden, her antipathy toward all forms of religion and her philosophical indifference to the accidents of family and ethnicity ensured that in her mind she did not remain Jewish.
The sort of child who does not play well with others, Alice inhabited a mental world of dreamy grandeur. At nine she read a story in a boys' adventure magazine about a dashing English soldier named Cyrus and decided, "This is what I want out of life." Three years later she was plastering her bedroom walls with photos of the liberal revolutionary Alexander Kerensky, and knew she could never love an ordinary man. The February 1917 Revolution, with Kerensky playing a leading role, enchanted and aroused her as a magnificent struggle for freedom and individualism, an emotionally charged arena where titanic forces of good and evil stood toe to toe and saber in hand.
When, in due course, October's Bolshevik Revolution succeeded February's, the young revolutionary discovered how serious was the combat between freedom and tyranny. Her father's shop was nationalized—the look on his face ignited her hatred for a regime in which "the illiterate and the poor had to be the rulers of the earth because they were illiterate and poor"—and her family decamped to the Crimea to wait out the Revolution. There, Alice studied American history for two years and came to revere the United States as freedom's citadel. Her intellectual development was swift and decisive. She adored mathematics and logic, and at age fifteen she wrote in her diary: "Today, I decided to be an atheist." Being anyone's inferior was unthinkable to her, so God could not possibly exist.
When the Rosenbaums returned to Petrograd in 1921, she entered the university, joining the anti-Communist camp. Life was generally gray and dank, and sometimes almost unendurable. Aching for the superb, she found in the opera house a refuge from the prevailing moral grime and physical squalor; she had a taste for Verdi, but a mad passion for the flounce and shimmer of operetta. For her this "tiddlywink music" would always embody the irrepressible joy of life.
It was an unexpected letter from emigrant relatives who had settled in Chicago that propelled her westward like destiny's guiding hand. Having inveigled an invitation to visit for six months, she embarked on English lessons, planning to write screenplays that would make her name and her fortune. In January 1926 she was off, with 50 dollars, a Remington-Rand typewriter, and a new name to go with her new country: Ayn Rosenbaum, soon to be further revised in the typewriter's honor.
Once in Chicago she banged out four screenplays, the choicest featuring a high-minded bandit who parachutes from skyscraper to skyscraper. Then she moved further west, to Hollywood, where a chance encounter with Cecil B. DeMille led to a job as a movie extra and a romance with the aspiring actor she would marry, a man she regarded as the epitome of masculine grace, beauty, and wisdom. She hustled in the time-honored immigrant fashion—as assistant script reader, file clerk, waitress—and after several years her scripts started to sell.
In 1933 she published her first novel, We the Living, about Bolshevik Russia, for which she received a measly advance and $100 in royalties. Her next novel, The Fountainhead, about an architect of genius and preternatural integrity, appeared ten years later, after a dozen editors had rejected it. By 1948 it had sold over 400,000 copies. Rand demanded $50,000 for the movie rights—over $600,000 in today's money—and got her asking price. Atlas Shrugged, her 1957 novel about a strike by the indispensable brain workers who really make the world run, was another and even bigger blockbuster.
Having realized her ambition as a novelist, Rand turned to philosophical essays detailing her Objectivist philosophy. These, too, sold phenomenally well. Her educational foundation, the Ayn Rand Institute, helped spread the word, as did her weekly column in the Los Angeles Times explaining the news from an Objectivist standpoint. Spillover crowds listened to her on the lecture circuit. Johnny Carson had her on the Tonight show.
She met her public in a black cape and a dress emblazoned with a gold dollar sign—the talisman of her striking capitalists. But she never went on strike herself. Work consumed her, and celebrity nourished her. Possessed of a philosopher's stone uniquely hers, she turned philosophy itself into gold. When she died in 1982, a six-foot dollar sign kept vigil beside her casket.
The memorial sounds crass, but Rand was no sell-out: her philosophical integrity never warped or cracked, she said exactly what she thought, and she was right when she insisted that her course as a thinker remained essentially unchanged from the time she was eighteen. Her girlish daydreams of high glory and erotic rhapsody, her confinement in the Soviet nightmare, her discovery of America: all conjoined in her "concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute."
Rand never tired of expounding these ideas, which found their most complete and most admired expression in her fiction. Thus, in The Fountainhead, the god-like Howard Roark negotiates a world run by "second-handers" precisely by refusing to negotiate with them. A brilliant architecture student who has been thrown out of college for declaring that his teachers have nothing to teach him, Roark pursues his career, or rather his vocation, in New York, determined to design buildings like no others.
This vaulting ambition earns him the scorn, derision, condescension, or hatred of nearly everyone, especially those who recognize his genius. We meet Peter Keating, a rival architect who lives solely for his own reflection in other people's eyes; Ellsworth M. Toohey, architecture critic, socialist apostle, and grand master of skullduggery, who hates Roark's perfectionism for requiring more of ordinary humanity than it can readily deliver; and Gail Wynand, baron of the tabloid press, who sees through every virtue and is out to prove there is no such thing as a superior man but eventually finds himself loving, esteeming, and fearing Roark.
And then there is Dominique Francon, journalist and daughter of a prominent architect, wealthy, cynical, forbiddingly luscious, and fiercely virginal until Roark possesses her in what can only be called a consensual rape. Dominique loves Roark and he loves her, but she also hates him for smashing her shell of smug irony and forcing her to acknowledge that moral splendor is possible. So she tries to work his professional and personal destruction, conspiring with Ellsworth Toohey and marrying first Peter Keating and then Gail Wynand as vengeance on all concerned, including herself.
In the end, justice, true love, and architectural innovation prevail. Roark, on trial for blowing up a housing project he designed but bureaucrats had defiled with their alterations, makes so fine a speech in defense of his creation's inviolable truth that the jury acquits him. Dominique leaves a now-admirable Wynand and takes up with Roark, for keeps. Roark gets the skyscraper commission from Wynand that will make both their names ring down the centuries. "Then there was only the ocean and the sky and the figure of Howard Roark."
As mighty a figure as Roark cuts, he gives up an inch or two of height and ten pounds of muscle to John Galt, the philosopher-inventor-businessman who is the protagonist of Atlas Shrugged and surely the most spectacularly outsized hero in modern literature. In the novel, the catchphrase of the day is "Who is John Galt?" Nobody seems to know the answer, or how the phrase has caught on, and not until some 600 pages into this 1,100-page work does the reader find out. But the heroine is on the track almost from the start, without knowing it, and without knowing that all along John Galt has been tracking her.
She is Dagny Taggart, the brains of the Taggart Transcontinental Railroad; the president of the operation, her brother Jim, is resentful of her competence and his improvidence is running the company into the ground. Competence and achievement versus improvidence and parasitism—the virtues are the trademarks of pure capitalism, the vices those of government regulation, the merest grain of which will wreck a perfect economic machine. In Atlas Shrugged, the complicity of unworthy captains of industry with government despoilers is pushing the long-entrenched New Deal inexorably into a form of virtual Stalinism, and all but shutting down the world economy.
John Galt has been deliberately hastening that shutdown, in order to bring on the resurrection of laissez-faire economics. He has invented a motor that converts static electricity from the air into kinetic energy. When the company he has been working for falls into the hands of Marxist imbeciles, he forms an enclave of disillusioned men of genius and talent in a Rocky Mountain valley hidden from common sight by his techno-wizardry. From there he leads a strike of the individuals whose competence and enterprise allow the world to keep running; the masses, beguiled by intellectuals, cannot recognize such men as the benefactors they really are, and Galt is bent on making the truth break forth.
Dagny Taggart is one of Galt's blue-chip recruits; his drawing her into the fold is the novel's principal line of action, around which several sharp-cornered intrigues are gathered. As always in Rand, free markets and true hearts, economic and erotic bliss, are intertwined. Like Dominique Francon, Dagny is a masterful beauty who longs to be mastered. She is, first by Francisco d'Anconia, the love of her youth and the owner of the world's largest copper mining company, and Hank Rearden, inventor of an alloy stronger and lighter than steel. But when she meets Galt, she knows this is the man she has waited for all her life. Although d'Anconia and Rearden still love her, they recognize Galt's unique claim: in Rand, the best men just are that way—heroically reasonable about love as about everything else.
Reason may be cruel at times, but it is always effective. The strikers' grand scheme works, the world becomes chaos, and they return in their generous selfishness to create it anew. In the novel's last sentence, Galt silently performs a godlike action: "He raised his hand and over the desolate earth he traced in space the sign of the dollar."
Clearly, these are novels with a program—ethical, economic, political, metaphysical. Above all, they are celebrations of mind. Rand is a sort of brassy minor poet of intellectual achievement, and of human ratiocination as the supreme moral force in the universe. In her fiction, the highest intelligence shapes character of comparable excellence; her heroes invariably possess extraordinary mental energy stoked by patient devotion, determination never broken by protracted hardship or witless neglect, certainty that they can make a lasting contribution of the utmost significance.
This depiction of extraordinary brainpower, vitality, integrity, and fortitude can be bracing, even exhilarating, if one is willing to dispense with any resemblance to real life for a time. You can soar through the two blockbuster novels powered by turbojets of fantasy, transported to heights where most serious modern fiction would never think of going. In that sense, The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged are not so much novels as very long fables, romances promoting a new chivalric order.
Rand loves the aspects of modernity that the prevalent strain in American fiction ignores or loathes. In her veneration of the philosopher-businessman, she cuts against the business-hating grain of the American novel. It is only her villains—Peter Keating, James Taggart—who resemble the grasping, morally hollow vulgarians and pashas of Theodore Dreiser, Sinclair Lewis, and Frank Norris. But in her work they are also merely the foils for moral titans like Galt, Rearden, Dagny Taggart, and the regenerated Gail Wynand.
These great figures are meant to inspire readers to go out and do likewise. When an unnamed young man with sublime but indefinite longings sees a summer resort designed by Howard Roark, he feels a strength that will sustain him in his ambition to realize his vision, whatever that may be: "Don't work for my happiness, my brothers—show me yours—show me that it is possible—show me your achievement—and the knowledge will give me the courage for mine." Rand wants to send tremors of possibility through her readership; her fiction combines the hectic rapture of the self-help book as we know it today with the sober regard for unremitting middle-class effort that Samuel Smiles extolled in the original Self-Help (1859).
Rand's stated purpose in her writing is "the projection of an ideal man." Distinctively modern experiences that most of us take for granted—feeling the rush of wind at the top of a skyscraper, seeing the landscape flow past from a speeding train—Rand's best and brightest appreciate as the most exquisite refinements for sensual aristocrats. And the most sensual are those who esteem the power of abstract thought to create a uniquely human world appropriate to the age of capitalist democracy.
What is one to make of it all? In Rand, soundness and charlatanry commingle. In the end, charlatanry prevails.
Freedom, individuality, achievement, reason: Rand takes these and other fine ideas and pursues them to the limits of sanity. Rightly understanding Soviet Communism (and German National Socialism, which she considered its mad collectivist kin) as epitomizing the worst in ethical and political thought, she plunges to the conclusion that in its polar opposite will be found nothing less than perfection. Having learned the lessons of socialist dystopia on her own body, she embraces a utopian fantasy of her own: only mingy compromise with collectivism stands in the way of the society without flaw, in which heroic individuals, loosed from Judeo-Christian tyranny with its insufferable God and foul altruism, will create the capitalist paradise.
In her passion to reshape the world in accordance with her idea, Rand begins to sound like the tyrants she hates. Her capitalist revolutionaries speak of their opponents as "subhuman creatures," "looting lice." Galt's radio address to the nation—he has commandeered the airwaves by some electronic magic—is positively Castro-like in its mad zealotry, running to over 50 pages and unfolding every half-truth and alluring lunacy Rand ever entertained.
Everything in Rand's thought depends on her faith in reason, her conviction that any question has a clear and definitive answer. This unlimited faith in reason damages her as a novelist—there are no mysteries in her world, including no mysteries of human character—and also severely limited her as a moralist and undid her as a woman.
In Rand's psychology, reason unfailingly determines emotion, never the other way around. But in her own erotic life Rand was at the mercy of a turbulent unreason that pulled her under even as she burbled on about her unimpeachable rationality. As she could only love an extraordinary man, she endowed the man she married, Frank O'Connor, with all the qualities of a hero, even of a god. In fact, in almost everyone's eyes but hers, O'Connor, a failure as a movie actor, was a raging mediocrity.
At the age of forty-nine, Rand fell for yet another god, Nathaniel Branden, the husband of her biographer and himself a disciple younger than she by 25 years. She expounded the perfect reasonableness of their adultery to each of the injured spouses, whom she expected reasonably to accept their twice-weekly scheduled trysts in the bedroom she shared with her husband. After years of this, the Brandens' marriage collapsed and Rand's husband swirled down the alcoholic drain.
When Rand was sixty-one and Branden thirty-six, the sexual fire went out for him and he found a younger lover. Rand nearly went insane in her jealousy. Maintaining that she was entirely reasonable and right, and Branden purely evil, she destroyed his professional reputation and banished him from the Randian kingdom where he had been until then the crown prince. Heroic reason, heroic freedom, heroic love ended, as they began, in folly.
Imagining herself one up on Heraclitus, Rand the thinker holds that a man's mind is his character is his fate. She appears never to have given a thought to how one actually comes by one's particular mind and character. She has no sense of human beings as creatures, each endowed with his own particular gifts, whether by chance or design, lacking other qualities he may wish he had, and subject to all the pains of individual and human nature. It is arguable that only from this awareness of incompleteness and contingency does there stem compassion for others, a quality rooted in rational human nature that has achieved its fullest expression in democratic society. But compassion disgusts Rand; John Galt scorns it as love of the unworthy, a triumph of sloppy feeling over lucid reason.
This is no doubt why, for all her continued popularity, Rand is anything but a commanding figure these days. Very few conservatives want any part of her, for she is the conservative bogeyman that liberals invoke to terrify their children: money-worshipping, absorbed in the pursuit of her own happiness, indifferent to the pain of others. Though she will no doubt continue to sell—there are certain effects she brings off as well as anyone, and they have their undeniable appeal—it is hardly a matter for regret that her centenary has gone largely unmarked.

Who Needs Ayn Rand?
Must-Reads from Magazine
Trump Goes Chomskyite
Noam Chomsky should be proud of Donald Trump's performance at Monday's joint news conference with Vladimir Putin in Helsinki. Over the decades Chomsky has won legions of fans, mainly among the simple and the half-erudite, who imagine the MIT professor's political jeremiads offer secret knowledge of the way the world really works. The key to that secret knowledge is that the U.S. bears the ultimate blame for nearly everything bad that happens in the world. If only America and its allies would mind their own business–which to Chomsky's mind should be to develop "libertarian socialism," whatever that means–there would be fewer threats to America, fewer wars, more comity at home and abroad. Sancta simplicitas!
Trump has long had a Chomskyite streak. Recall his flirtation with 9/11 trutherism amid the GOP primary campaign; his claim that President Obama "founded" ISIS ("ISIS is honoring President Obama. He is the founder of ISIS. He is the founder of ISIS, okay? He is the founder"); and the moral parallel he drew between the U.S. and Russia's thugocracy soon after he took office. But even by those standards, the 45 minutes Trump spent blabbering next to an amused-looking Vladimir Putin were excruciating.
Things started bad with Trump's pre-conference tweet blaming Washington for the state of U.S.-Russian relations: "Our relationship with Russia has NEVER been worse thanks to many years of U.S. foolishness and stupidity. . . ." The tweet sent the right's Trump-whisperers scrambling. The "foolishness" Trump mentioned was Obama's weak posture, they insisted. But given Trump's refusal at various points to condemn Russian meddling in elections across the West, Moscow's illegal annexation of Crimea, his bizarre and persistent reluctance to criticize Putin directly, the rest of us can't be blamed for thinking that by "foolishness," Trump meant "American hawkishness."
The Russian Foreign Ministry's pithy response to Trump's tweet cleared up any doubt: "We agree."
The pattern continued during the conference itself. Trump repeatedly credited Putin's denials of his election meddling while seeking to discredit conclusions to the contrary from America's own intelligence agencies. As Jonathan Swan of Axios and others have reported, this may owe to Trump's conflation of electronic interference and collusion. The latter may prove to be a spurious accusation used by Democrats to discredit the outcome of the 2016 election. But the former–electronic meddling–is a documented, incontrovertible fact.
But there was yet worse to come. As Eli Lake noted,
After Putin said he would allow U.S. law enforcement officials to come to Moscow and watch as his police question the 12 agents Mueller indicted, Trump responded by calling it 'an incredible offer.' It isn't. Putin was falsely equating his own country's information operation against the Democratic Party with the U.S.'s refusal to recognize an arrest warrant for William Browder, the chief executive of Hermitage Capital. Browder has spent the last nine years of his life pursuing justice for Sergei Magnitsky, his Russian lawyer, who died in prison in 2009 after exposing embezzlement by government officials.
Trump's comments, and the whole Helsinki affair, look even worse when viewed next to his rhetorical assaults on the European Union and NATO, structures which the U.S. helped establish to promote peace and the common defense of the West in the years after World War II. Not all of his criticisms were wide of the mark, of course. As I wrote in these pages last week, Trump was right to take Germany to task for a pipeline deal that would enhance Moscow's energy dominance in Europe. But to describe the EU as a trade "foe," as Trump did, and then to follow that comment with the grotesque moral equivalences of Helsinki marked a dismal moment in the history of the American presidency. Noam Chomsky is a pure creature of the American hard left. But his spirit hovered the Helsinki "Summit."

The Importance of Being Stupid
When the silly get serious.
Maybe geographic "sorting," in which like-minded people tend to herd themselves into politically homogeneous communities, is to blame. Maybe social media and the caustic, stubborn posturing it rewards is at fault. Maybe it's always been this way. Whatever the cause, it has become an undeniable fact that getting ahead in public life demands some deference to unmitigated stupidity.
Take, for example, a couple of recent pronouncements by the Democratic Party's newest celebrity: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Her victory over her county's Democratic Party chairman and the fourth-ranking Democrat in the House of Representatives in last month's primary was no small feat, but that accomplishment has led some political observers to assign to her a level of political competence that she has not yet earned.
The 28-year-old who in all likelihood will soon serve as the representative from New York's 14th Congressional district was recently asked by "Firing Line" host Margaret Hoover to discuss her frustrations with the state of Israel. Ocasio-Cortez described Israel's response to violent provocations on its border with Gaza as a "massacre," and explained that the "occupation" of Palestinian lands represents an "increasing crisis of humanitarian condition." But where other members of the media might have moved on or finished Ocasio-Cortez's half-baked thought for her, Hoover admirably asked the future congresswoman to elaborate.
"I think what I meant is, like, the settlements that are increasing in these areas, where Palestinians are experiencing difficulty in access to their housing and homes,"Ocasio-Cortez said. Hoover asked again for more elaboration, at which point Ocasio-Cortez gave up the game. "I am not the expert on geopolitics on this issue," she said with a chuckle. These are only talking points, you see. She didn't really know what she was talking about.
Gaza is, of course, not occupied. Indeed, the land was ethnically cleansed of Jews over a decade ago. Most of the West Bank's civilian settlements, a footprint that takes up approximately 2 percent of the land in the region, will be apportioned to Israel in any viable peace deal (as had been the case in past deals). To think critically on the matter for a few minutes would leave any rational observer to wonder why the violence in unoccupied Gaza erupted with a ferocity that was not reproduced in the supposedly occupied West Bank. But no one is doing much thinking here. These were statements of fealty to a cause, not a principle.
This isn't the first time Ocasio-Cortez should have disappointed her indefatigable boosters. Shortly after her election victory, she appeared on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" where she was asked if tax increases could pay for her preferred agenda items: Medicare-for-all, free post-graduate education at state institutions, expanded Social Security, and a federal employment guarantee. "Not only that," she replied, "but also to understand that the federal government does have the ability in the similar way that we had in the New Deal to spearhead this agenda and some of that financing as well." Pardon?
To a certain segment of the left, this non-answer is a perfectly justified dodge because the honest response to this question is politically untenable. You see, to some on the new left, we don't have to pay for anything. The United States mints its own currency, sets its value, and can finance through loans whatever it wants—even including what experts estimate could be the $32 trillion price tag on a single-payer healthcare program. Ocasio-Cortez's incomprehensible dissimulation was an evasive maneuver, but a necessary one. After all, according to Senator Bernie Sanders, such a program would require the country to spend "such an astronomical sum of money that, you know, we would bankrupt the nation." But the self-described socialist from Vermont said that in 1987, back when moving up in Democratic politics meant paying obeisance to other stupid ideas.
Medicare-for-all is one of many politically and arithmetically untenable ideas so obviously unfeasible that only intelligent people could erect logical constructs elaborate enough to convince themselves of their viability. For political superstars like Sanders or Ocasio-Cortez, a little tactical stupidity is a valuable asset. After all, there is a big marketplace available to those who are willing to tell you what you already believe.
If conservatives are inclined to take heart in the fact that these liberal slogans are unlikely to manifest in policy when Democrats regain political power, a brief survey of the GOP's attempts to realize its own stupid ideas should disabuse them of that hope. Foremost among those has to be the Trumpified Republican Party's hostility toward the kind of global free-trade regimes the party had spent the better part of the prior twenty years establishing.
On balance, barrier-free trade creates more winners than losers, raises standards of living, reduces poverty across the board, and limits the potential for armed conflict between nations. Republicans know this implicitly, if only because they have spent so much energy in the Trump era lamenting the death of the Trans-Pacific Partnership in all but name. The Trump administration's rapidly expanding trade war with China, a project that is cheered on by even his erstwhile GOP critics, would have been advanced by that 11-nation agreement that excluded the People's Republic. Hardly a week goes by that the Trump administration doesn't lament unfair barriers to accessing Southeast Asian markets, Japanese protectionism, Australian competition, or Canadian dairy subsidization. All of this and more would have been resolved in America's favor in a post-TPP world.
The president's heedless antagonism toward both America's allies and its strategic competitors are not without cost. If fully implemented, the increased prices of consumer goods and reduced access to foreign markets could shave as much as .3 to .4 percent off quarterly GDP growth. The economy can absorb these unnecessary blows, but there is otherwise no logic buttressing this policy. Donald Trump promised on the campaign trail to deliver a policy that would disproportionately harm all American consumers to preserve only a few thousand inefficient jobs, and he delivered. There's a lesson there. No one should put their faith in arithmetic to save them from the socialist utopia Democrats promise today.

The Only Country with No Right to a Normal Foreign Policy
Glaring hypocrisy.
The news that Hungary's prime minister will visit Israel next week has sparked outrage from liberal Jews both in Israel and abroad. Opponents raise two main objections. One would be serious if true, but it doesn't seem to be. The other is sheer hypocrisy–and it's an excellent example of the way liberal Jews routinely hold Israel to standards they apply to no other country on earth.
The hypocritical objection is that Viktor Orban is an authoritarian. "Sad company to keep," tweeted Brookings Institute fellow Tamara Cofman Wittes after hearing that Orban was definitely coming and Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte (who is admittedly more problematic) might be. Former U.S. Ambassador to Israel Daniel Shapiro also questioned the wisdom of welcoming Orban and other authoritarians. "While Israel's unique security and other requirements understandably impel it to develop as wide a network of relationships as it can," he said, "I think it will want to avoid finding its own democratic identity tarnished by, of its own choosing, aligning less with the club of democracies and more with this very different coalition."
This is simply ridiculous. Aside from the fact that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has also regularly hosted liberal leaders like German Chancellor Angela Merkel (several times) and Barack Obama, with French President Emmanuel Macron reportedly planning to visit later this year, the reality is that most countries in the world today are authoritarian, and even a growing number of Western democracies have authoritarian leaders. Thus, any country which wants to maintain relationships with more than a handful of other countries will end up hosting a lot of authoritarian leaders, which is why every other Western democracy also does so.
In fact, other Western democracies often host leaders considerably more objectionable than Orban, and with less justification. I can understand hosting Vladimir Putin or Xi Jinping despite their aggressive foreign policies; Russia and China are too important to be ignored. But just this month, Switzerland and Austria welcomed Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, as did France and Italy in 2016, even though Rouhani's government is actively abetting the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of people in Syria and Yemen and brutally crushing dissent at home. That's far worse than hosting Orban, whose government isn't killing anyone.
Moreover, Hungary is genuinely important to Israel's core foreign policy interests, since it has repeatedly helped quash anti-Israel decisions by Israel's largest trading partner, the European Union. What vital contributions does Iran make to Europe's core interests that justify overlooking its complicity in mass murder?
In short, liberal Jews are criticizing Israel for doing exactly what every other Western democracy does—except that other Western countries are even more egregious, and with fewer excuses.
Now let's consider the serious objection, which is that Orban foments anti-Semitism in Hungary. Most Israelis would agree that their government shouldn't whitewash anti-Semitism; that's why Netanyahu's recent statement downplaying Poland's role in the Holocaust sparked outrage far beyond the ranks of his usual opponents. If true, this charge would be a valid reason to oppose Orban's visit.
The problem is that the evidence doesn't support it. That isn't because Hungary has no anti-Semitism problem; indeed, a major study published last month showed that almost two-thirds of Hungarian Jews think it does. Moreover, Orban has undeniably made some problematic statements.
Nevertheless, the study found an objective and significant improvement over the past 18 years, almost half of which were under Orban's rule. For instance, the number of Jews who reported hearing anti-Semitic remarks in the street dropped from an astronomical 75 percent in 1999 to 48 percent (still outrageously high) last year, while the number who reported experiencing three or more anti-Semitic incidents fell from 16 to 6 percent.
This jibes with JTA's in-depth report on Hungarian anti-Semitism earlier last month. In light of the data cited above, the fact that the Hungarian Jewish community's anti-Semitism watchdog, TEV, recorded just 37 anti-Semitic incidents in 2017 (down from 48 in 2016) only shows that anti-Semitic comments are massively underreported. What was noteworthy, however, is that not a single reported incident involved violence.
By comparison, reporter Cnaan Liphshiz noted, the United Kingdom, with a Jewish population only about 2.5 times that of Hungary, recorded 145 physical assaults in its total of 1,382 anti-Semitic incidents in 2017. Austria, with a Jewish population less than a tenth of Hungary's, recorded five cases of physical violence among its 503 anti-Semitic incidents last year—and, incidentally, that was under a left-wing government led by the Social Democrats. Conservative Prime Minister Sebastian Kurz took power only in December 2017.
Thus, Jews in Britain or Austria were far more likely to suffer anti-Semitic violence than their Hungarian brethren. Indeed, unlike their counterparts in, say, France or Belgium, Jews with beards and kippahs told Liphshiz they feel safe walking Hungary's streets.
Hungarian Jewish community leaders also said a 2014 revision of the legal code enacted by Orban's government significantly increased prosecution and punishment of anti-Semitic offenses. "It was a big step forward," said TEV's secretary-general, Kalman Szalai. Nor, incidentally, did the Jewish leaders Liphshiz interviewed think Orban's attacks on George Soros—Exhibit A in most liberal Jewish indictments of Orban—were anti-Semitic (a point I made last year).
In other words, as Szalai said, "It's not that Hungary doesn't have anti-Semitism . . . But it also has little to no anti-Semitic violence, and responsive authorities in the judiciary, the police force and also in government." All of which makes it hard to argue that Orban should be shunned as a dangerous anti-Semite. That is, unless you think, as liberal Jews increasingly seem to do, that right-wing authoritarians are by definition dangerous anti-Semites.
And once you remove the straw man of anti-Semitism, you're left with the double standard in all its glory: Israel alone has no right to host authoritarian leaders important to its interests, even as other Western democracies routinely host worse leaders with less justification. By insisting that Israel shouldn't host Orban, liberal Jews are effectively saying that Israel, alone of all the countries of the world, has no right to conduct a normal foreign policy.

The Iranian Terror State Targets Europe
The Iran deal haunts its sponsors.
In a rare lucid moment in January 2016, then-Secretary of State John Kerry admitted that the Tehran regime would use some of the funds from the Iranian nuclear deal to fund terrorism.
"I think that some of [the money] will end up in the hands of the [Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps] or other entities, some of which are labeled terrorists," he said in the interview with CNBC in Davos. "You know, to some degree, I'm not going to sit here and tell you that every component of that can be prevented." It's worth watching footage of the interview to observe Kerry's nonchalance as if the possibility of transferring money to some of the world's most lethal terrorist groups bothered him not in the least.
Flash forward more than two years later, and Reuters reports:
Germany's federal prosecutor on Wednesday remanded in custody an Iranian diplomat suspected of having been involved in a plot to bomb an Iranian opposition rally in France but said the suspect could still be extradited to Belgium.
Belgium is already investigating two Belgians of Iranian origin arrested earlier this month for plotting an explosive attack on the annual "Great Assembly" of Iranian opposition exiles last month on the outskirts of Paris.
In a statement, the German federal prosecutor said the Austria-based Iranian diplomat is suspected of commissioning a couple living in Antwerp to carry out the attack and providing them with a detonation device and homemade explosive TATP.
Mercifully, European security forces unraveled the plot before the attack took place. But imagine if they had failed. Imagine the blood spilled and body parts scattered outside a rubbled convention center in Paris; the smoke rising high above the densely populated urban core of the French capital. Now think back to Kerry's arrogance and indifference to what it would mean for the U.S. and its allies to grease the wheels of Iran's terror machine.
Say what you will about President Trump's penchant for hyperbole, but his characterization of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action–"the worst deal ever"–was spot on.

National WAVES publisher, Jimmy Enyeh speaks on life at 50, joins politics
For Jimmy Enyeh, the Uhrobo, Delta State-born journalist and publisher of National WAVES Magazine, there is no other time to roll out the drums other than now. This is because he is set to clock 50 and at the same time celebrate a decade of National WAVES Magazine.
Surprisingly however, instead of rolling out the drums to celebrate, he prefers to have a low key celebration and unveil his new plan, and that is joining politics to empower his people.
The upwardly-mobile pen pusher who began his journalism career 22 years ago having worked as a society writer with Goodtime Magazine, Fame Magazine, Marvel Magazine and City People Magazine before setting up National WAVES Magazine 10 years ago studied Mass Communication at the prestigious University of Lagos and Public Administration at the Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma.
The amiable publisher who is not leaving any stone unturned to realise his ambition spoke to National WAVES' North Central Bureau Chief Abdullahi Abubakar about his life at 50, National WAVES Magazine at 10 and his new move. It's quite revealing. Read on…
How do you feel being 50?
I'm happy to celebrate my golden jubilee. I feel excited and more importantly give all the glory to God who saw me through the darkest moments of my life. Without God, I wouldn't be celebrating this milestone. I know he's not done with me. As a matter of fact, this is just the starting point. For me, life begins at 50.
National WAVES Magazine which you conceptualized when you celebrated 40 is 10 years old. What will you do to sustain and ensure it remains on the newsstands?
Well, I guess your question revolves around what happened to some publications which went into extinction after 10 years. Well, with God on our side, adequate planning and good hands, I think we shall not have problems surmounting the challenges of being on the newsstands.
You are very correct; some publications that survived the challenges associated with the early stages went into oblivion on attaining a decade. But for us at National WAVES Magazine, we have learnt the ropes and will rely on the experience acquired over the years to ensure we continue to churn out quality products on monthly basis. For me, ensuring that National WAVES hits the newsstands on monthly basis has become a sort of passion. It has become part of me and it is about ensuring that my dreams come to fruition.
It's quite expensive to publish glossy and all colour magazines but you have consistently published National WAVES for 10 years. How did this evolve?
As I said earlier, this was made possible by His grace. It is just the grace of God. I remember when we came out with the first edition in February 2008; many of my colleagues who saw it came to me and asked me how I intended to sustain it. Even my wife kicked against it. She advised me to remain with City People and buttressed her argument with the quote of '' a bird in hand is worth than 10,000 in the bush'' She also reminded me of the numerous bills I needed to settle. I was so adamant that I did not inform my wife when I travelled to Lagos to drop my resignation letter. All those who were against it hinged their arguments on the high cost of producing such magazine and if I had such money to sustain it. Some even mocked me saying 'being an experienced journalist is different from being a publisher or an entrepreneur. They urged me to do a proper feasibility study before resigning my appointment as the Abuja Bureau Chief of City People Magazine but I simply told them that I had made up my mind long ago about this project. This was a project I had carefully studied and prayed on for two years but the problem was how to get funds to set it up. Most investors shy away from investing in the media because for them, it's difficult to make profit in this line of business. I remember vividly that I wrote about two to three proposals to some of my friends who were initially interested in the project but they fizzled out for reasons best known to them. I think what we needed then was about N10 million. It was not about the money. These friends of mine had more than enough. To them N10 million was something they could afford but they declined to invest.
So how did you get the funds to set up National WAVES Magazine?
At this point I need to thank Mr. Seye Kehinde, the publisher of City People Magazine who gave me the opportunity to come out with the pilot edition while still working for him. Having worked at City People Abuja office for seven years I was to celebrate my 40thbirthday and I left my desk in Abuja to see him in Lagos. Basically, my intention was to discuss how to celebrate my 40th birthday. At the meeting, I was so categorical. I told him I needed to publish a special edition for my birthday and he obliged me. I was ecstatic. What I had in mind was just a one-off thing that I could take to some of my friends and convince them to buy into it but had to change my mind because I realised some money, (although not what I had in mind) but enough to continue with the project from the 40th birthday congratulatory adverts placed by friends and well-wishers. I sincerely thank those who gave me congratulatory adverts for that first edition. It was the tonic that spurred me into action. So I forged ahead and to God be the glory, we are still in business.
Your birthday comes up on February 26, how do you intend to celebrate it?
Although on account of the nature of my job, I like to hang out, I'm not a party freak. Many have envisaged that it will be a big bash but for me, no elaborate party. I will be having a get-together with my friends and family and meet with my people, the widows and the less-privileged. Instead of squandering money to organise a shindig I rather give back to humanity.
In fact, I shall unveil my plans for 2019 on my birthday. I have made up my mind to contest an elective position come 2019. My conviction to contest an elective position in 2019 is borne out of my desire to serve and empower my people. I am stating categorically and unequivocally that those who stole our commonwealth shall not have peace. I'm sick and tired of literally sitting on the fence to watch some corrupt and greedy people siphon or steal money meant for all Nigerians. As you know, I had exposed some of these people on my platform but I think that is not enough. I want to be actively involved in politics. By doing this, I will be able to touch more lives, especially the widows and less-privileged. I have been doing this with the resources at my disposal through Victory Foundation, a non-governmental organisation under my watch which had given succour to widows and less-privileged.
I have prayed and fasted over my new plan and I know that God in His infinite mercy will see me through. The billions stolen could be used to empower those who do not have jobs; those graduates who roam the streets in search of jobs can be empowered. It can be used to fix our moribund refineries, bad roads and the power sector.
Don't ask me which position I will be vying for because I'm not ready to let the cat out of the bag. I shall make it public at the appropriate time.
Now that you have made your intention to go into active politics known, how will you combine running National WAVES and politics?
We have good hands who can handle the editorial aspects of production, so we are not losing anything, I can be consulted for other purposes. I will still find time to attend to this until I have contested, won election and sworn in which I know will come to pass by His grace.
Joining active politics is a clarion call to serve and I shall not disappoint my people and my creator in this regard. I will ensure I serve my people to the best of my knowledge, I shall leave an indelible mark in my first term that my people will yearn for more, in fact, they will request that I'm given a higher responsibility. I shall leave my footprint in the sands of governance. I have told those close to me that I sought the hand of my creator to lead me and not to allow me to derail in giving my people the dividends of democracy and I know God will not fail me in this regard.
As a journalist who has been practising for over two decades, you must have witnessed a lot of harassments. How did you surmount this?
Definitely, I have been harassed severally on the job. Not only that, my life had been threatened in the course of my duty as a journalist. As regards National WAVES Magazine, we have been dragged to different courts by those who felt maligned by our stories but the good news is that in all we triumphed.
As a trained journalist, I have abided by the ethics of the profession; you can come to my office or send stories to me through email. I will not publish same until I have thoroughly investigated such stories. That is to say all sides must be heard. But we had instances where principal actors involved in some stories made it difficult for us to do our job. You tried to reach them through SMS or phone calls to verify your stories and get them to react albeit unsuccessfully.
Take for instance the story of an oil magnate in Abuja, we wrote him to verify the story and also state his own side but he ignored our letter only for him to harass us and drag us to court after the said story was published. At the end, the matter was struck out by the court. These are some of the challenges we encounter in the process of carrying out our duties.
How do you unwind?
I read inspirational books; I read biographies of great people. I love to hang out with my colleagues. I also relax by watching matches played by Chelsea Football Club. I'm a great fan of Chelsea; I have watched Chelsea play live at Stamford Bridge. I'm just down with football and I love football with a passion.
What is your favourite food?
Don't forget I'm an Uhrobo man; my favourite food is starch and banga soup. It is quite delicious.

10-year old girl launches two books
L-R: Toni Kan, guest speaker; Munachi Mbonu, author of the books title " Concealed and The Child of Destiny", her mother Ify Mbonu, and Nicolas Okoye, president/CEO, Anabel Group, during the books presentation in Lagos.
It was a gathering of A lists authors, book aficionados, and captains of industries at the Terra Kulture, Victoria Island, Lagos to launch two books written by 10-year old Munachi Mbonu.
The books, Concealed and Chidubem: A child of destiny were products of leisurely exercises by the Year Six pupil of Grande Oakbridge Montessori School, Osapa London, Lekki, which she wrote to entertain her cousins until her mother, Ifeoma, urged her to seek a wider audience.
Munachi said Concealed, centered on a group of young friends in school learning what is valuable and love, was inspired by TV drama series, Friends; while Chidubem, which features a boy adapting to city life after relocating from the village, was influenced by her interactions with her cousins who had similar experience.
"When the house is noisy, my Mummy tells us to go to our rooms and read and do book reviews. She doesn't like us watching the TV for long periods. I started writing stories and giving them to my cousin's to read.
"The first book was from TV drama shows; the second book was inspired by my cousins who moved from the village to Lagos. They did not like some things we liked here but were willing to learn new things and adapt," she said.
Munachi's Mum said the girl started writing at seven.
"She's been writing from seven. I got her first laptop at five. So she would sketch some things and write about them. At age seven, she started writing. During the holidays I buy a lot of books and tell her to do a book review. She has written about five or six books.
Ms Mbonu said she thought the books were ripe for publishing because she enjoyed reading them as an adult.
"When I read Chidumbem, it was really funny. I was laughing. I told her that older people needed to read her books, not just her cousins. She was scared at first but I encouraged her. We met with an editor who saw the manuscript and she was impressed," said Ms Mbonu.
Advising other parents, Ms Mbonu urged parents to invest in their wards.
"I will advise parents to invest in their children first before investing for their children. Expose a child to multiple activities and through that you know what the child likes," she said.
Guest of honour at the launch, Tony Kan, popular writer and poet, who started writing at 11, urged Munachi's parents to support her.
He shared how he ended up studying English at the University of Jos after three failures to get in for Medicine. He also said his love for writing had taken him all over the world.
"I wanted to study Medicine at the University of Jos. I was admitted for Chemistry, the first time, then Biochemistry, then Microbiology. My uncle then asked what I wanted to do, and I opted for English. In the first year, we had a reading list of 48 books. I had read 47 of them.
I want to say to Mum and Dad, this girl is doing something great; encourage her. I have traveled all over the world but I have never bought a ticket in my life. I get invitations from people because of my books," he said.
Singer, Wizkid booked till 2021
NIGERIAN singer Ayo Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid, has revealed that he has been booked for shows for the next three years.
'Soco', in which he featured Ceeza Mili, Spotless and Terri, is a fast-paced Afro-beat tune that has grown to become the most favourite song for the 'Shaku Shaku' dance.
In February 2014, Wizkid became the first ever Nigerian musician to have over 1 million followers on Twitter.
The 27-year- old recently sold out the O2 hall in London and is set to release a much-anticipated album later in 2018.
Revealed! How Apostle Suleman foretold Lagos explosion (Video)
Two months ago, precisely on 29th of April, 2018, servant of God and senior pastor at Omega Fire Ministries, Apostle (Prof.) Johnson Suleiman, prophesied of the tanker explosion that occurred in Lagos on Thursday, 28th of June, 2018.
Revealing the Lord's message during the Sunday service, the 'Oracle of God' told his congregation of a fire incident to happen between Lagos and Ibadan highway. "I see fire on the highway, between Lagos and Ibadan. I see a newspaper talking about 100 people being feared dead in the inferno. I see one vehicle hitting the next and the next hitting the next," he prophesied and asked that people pray.
What proof do we then need to identify a true God's Prophet.

Motorists are paying on average 5p more per litre for fuel than they should because fuel stations have not reduced their prices in line with crude oil rates, according to new findings.
Fuel price campaigner, FairFuelUK revealed that fuel stations have made £500 million in "opportunistic profiteering" by not reducing prices of petrol and diesel accordingly in the past three months.
The report found that on 15 June, whoelsale oil prices were at £55.36/barrel, while the UK average retail price for diesel was £1.322/litre and petrol £1.292/litre.
On 4 May, when oil prices were a comparable £55.45/barrel, diesel was just £1.268/litre and petrol £1.239/litre.
Howard Cox, founder of FairFuelUK, said: "In Germany and France, pump prices can fluctuate on the forecourts daily, even hourly.
"The cost of filling up in these countries accurately reflects oil and wholesale prices."
However, UK "motorists and businesses are exploited ruthlessly by the fuel supply chain", according to Cox who is calling on the government to "protect hard-working consumers and the economy from this recurring disingenuous manipulation".
Conservative MP for Scotland, Kirstene Hair, said that the UK needs "an independent price monitoring body" to "ensure households and businesses are no longer charged unfairly for fuel".

Lena Dunham has come to the defense of one of her show's writers who is accused of raping a 17-year-old girl in 2012.
Dunham released a joint statement on Friday with her co-show runner Jenni Konner expressing support for Murray Miller, who is being accused by actress Aurora Perrineau of sexual assault five years ago.
'While our first instinct is to listen to every woman's story, our insider knowledge of Murray's situation makes us confident that sadly this accusation is one of the 3% of assault cases that are misreported every year,' Dunham and Konner wrote in a joint statement.
'It is a true shame to add to that number, as outside of Hollywood women still struggle to be believed. We stand by Murray and this is all we'll be saying about this issue.'
Miller vehemently denies the allegations and said that he has proof that the accusations are false

Dunham has been vocal about her own experience with sexual assault, retelling her story during gala in 2015 of how she was raped.
Miller, 40, is best known for his work on Dunham's dramedy vehicle 'Girls.'
'I filed a police report today,' Perrineau told The Wrap earlier Friday. 'I cannot talk about the investigation that is happening currently.'
Miller vehemently denies the allegations, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Perrineau, 23, said that the two had met at the Standard Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles during a night out with friends.
Perrinea told The Wrap that she had 'consumed some alcoholic beverages' that evening, but added that she repeatedly told Miller that she was underage.
The 23-year-old 'Passengers' and 'Equals' star said that Murray had asked for a ride home at the end of the evening, admitting that 'he was drunk'.
Once she and her friends arrived at his house, she 'felt like I had to go along with everyone else,' according to her statement.
'At some point, I woke up in Murray's bed naked. He was on top of me having sexual intercourse with me. At no time did I consent to any sexual contact with Murray,' Perrineau's statement added.

Miller has also contributed as a writer for animated series 'American Dad' and 'King of the Hill'
Soon after news of the allegations broke, creator and writer of Girls, Lena Dunham, sent out a cryptic tweet
Murray, who has also worked on animated series 'King of the Hill' and 'American Dad,' was 35 at the time of the alleged assault.

Sgt. Salvador Rios with the LA Sheriff's Department confirmed that they received a complaint from Perrineau.
Although the report was filed at West Hollywood station, the LAPD will take the lead on the investigation, Rios added.
Before releasing her formal statement, Dunham sent out a cryptic tweet seemingly alluding to loyalty just hours after news broke of the allegations.
'I believe in a lot of things but the first tenet of my politics is to hold up the people who have held me up, who have filled my world with love,' Dunham wrote in the post.
At Variety's Power Of Women event two years ago, Dunham gave a speech that detailed her own brush with sexual assault while she was an undergraduate at Oberlin College.
'When I was raped, I felt powerless,' she told the star-studded audience.
Lena - who chronicled her sexual assault in her essay collection Not That Kind Of Girl - shared her rape occurrence upon accepting the honor for her work with GEMS, an organization created to serve and empower girls and young women of sexual assault.
Harold Perrineau is best known for his roles in the Matrix movies and staring in the hit ABC show 'Lost'
'Someone who sent me the message that my body was not my own and my choices were meaningless. It took years to recognize my worth was not tied to my assault, the voices telling me I deserved this were phantoms, they were liars,' she said during her speech.
In the wake of a Hollywood sex abuse scandal centering on disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, Dunham last month also posted a tweet recounting a previous experience with a sexual assailant.
'Can't sleep remembering that I cried because my rapist passed me in the library and i didn't say hi.'
Through his attorney, Miller called the allegations categorically false, adding that he has proof of his innocence and will cooperate fully with any police investigation.
'Mr. Miller categorically and vehemently denies Ms. Perrineau's outrageous claims,' attorney Don Walerstein said in a statement.
'After being contacted several weeks ago by lawyers who—on Ms. Perrineau's behalf—sought substantial monetary damages from him, Mr. Miller's legal team gathered overwhelming evidence directly contradicting these false and offensive claims.
'Only after her demands for money were rebuffed did Ms. Perrineau go to the police. Mr. Miller looks forward to sharing all evidence and information with any and all authorities seeking the truth in this matter.'
Miller also has acted in small roles in 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' and 'The Five-Year Engagement.'
Dunham recently shared a tweet about being raped in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein accusations

Catalans to sign Smith?

Drinkwater 7. Smith Williame to second row, Thornley to a Championship club? Alternatively, Mead to the wing and WIlliame sticking at centre?

7th July : SL Wakefield Trinity v Catalans Dragons KO 6:30pm
Chris22 replied to Old Frightful's topic in The General Rugby League ForumI cannot recall a side of greater contrast in one season than Catalans. Their performance against Warrington at home was especially abject. Towards the end of last year and start of this year, they seemed almost unable to score a try! Now they are winning and playing good rugby too. I have been highly critical of McNamara in the past, so it is only right to credit him for the turnaround and Guasch for his patience in not sacking him. Our upcoming cup semi final against them could be a cracker!

Barba - back on compassionate grounds?
Chris22 replied to Lowdesert's topic in The General Rugby League ForumIncredible that the official NRL website would publish an article that is baseless. And that's a nice way of putting it, malicious is probably more accurate. Barba may well leave at the end of the year, but his wife's alleged homesickness is not the reason. She wants to stay, particularly as she thinks their kids have great educational opportunities here (no obvious jokes please...) Barba' s kids are also by all accounts enjoying being part of the community, settling in to the Saints junior cheerleading squad. And rumours suggest that an improved, longer contract may be on the table for Barba at Saints, so we may hear something soon..
Barrow nearly folded this week
Chris22 replied to Bedford Roughyed's topic in The General Rugby League ForumSo the Super League clubs will increase their share of central funding, leaving some non-Super League clubs to, best case scenario, struggle. Protectionism. Short term thinking. It'll work for the Super League clubs for now but if the rapid growth doesn't occur, I sense that this may backfire.

A shame that barely any of these crunch games will be on TV and that after next year maybe we won't have such an interesting battle at the top of the Championship.
England vs. France Oct. 17th @ LSV
Chris22 replied to NickWeaver's topic in The General Rugby League ForumI'm afraid I'll have to add my agreement to the dissenting voices. In 2015, we drew a crowd of 8,300 at Leigh for the warm-up match on a Saturday. Realistically, the best we could hope for is to match this crowd, although with it being on a Wednesday I reckon we're looking at a crowd of 6,000 as a maximum, no TV coverage, and no-one really knowing the match is on. For the 2021 World Cup, we have reportedly had 40 venues bid for matches with many outside the heartlands. I'd wager that if you gave a match to one of these towns/cities, they would make a better effort at promoting it than Leigh in an attempt to secure a match for 2021, and the associated TV coverage and sponsorship that this would provide. If 2021 is to be the success we want it to be, then in my opinion any England friendly should no longer be played at a stadium with a capacity less than 20,000, and any competitive England game should no longer be played in a stadium with a capacity less than 30,000 (as a minimum. And we extend our run of having 1 England game played in London between 2014 and 2019. Yet the RFL will scratch their heads about why the sport doesn't get national recognition... EDIT: Just received an email from the RFL about the match which states: This in itself is unacceptable, and probably not something that we should be highlighting!

23 Jun: Test Match: England v New Zealand (Denver)
Chris22 replied to John Drake's topic in The General Rugby League ForumYes. Although I would suggest you have not. I have issues with our international planning in the past in that we have not capitalised on good opportunities. That's separate to yesterday's test. We are in agreement that yesterday was a big positive.
23 Jun: Test Match: England v New Zealand (Denver)
Chris22 replied to John Drake's topic in The General Rugby League ForumThere isn't one. The point was that we have missed great opportunities in rugby league over the last few years. Last night has provided another great opportunity and I really hope we build on it. And I'm pleased to see from yours and others recent posts (and Bennett's post match comments) that all parties are keen to do so.

The organic conductor (TMTSF)2 CIO4 exhibits unusual magnetotransport effects below 30 K. The resistivity and thermopower have large, anisotropic changes in a magnetic field, whereas the thermal conductivity is hardly affected. At lower temperature (T ≤ 5 K) a magnetic field applied along the c* direction causes a phase transition from a metallic, non-magnetic state to a semimetallic, magnetic state. This orbitally induced transition appears to be unique in nature. Above the threshold field for this transition steps in the Hall resistance are observed, suggestive of the quantum Hall effect. In this paper we review the magnetotransport experiment in these materials and discuss the possible origins of the unusual phenomena observed.
