Grey Worm is a difficult one because he was bred to fight as one of the Unsullied, but he's not as emotionless as one of the fighting machines. However, he has totally proven to have a heart and his sex-focused

The dehumidifier market has registered significant growth in recent years on the back of stringent energy-efficient regulations, especially in residential sector. Moreover, it is also being adopted in commercial and industrial sectors to regulate humidity level as per the requirement.

Dehumidifiers minimize humidity in air by reducing water content present in the air. In residential sector, the device is used for comfort purpose and health reasons. Application of dehumidifiers helps eliminate water content from closed areas such as basements and attics. Thus, it helps in prevention of dampness, musty odor, and molds in small spaces.

Meanwhile, changing climatic conditions, increasing constriction activities and rising deposable are few factors driving growth of dehumidifier market.

Further, it is also being adopted in cold storage industries and food and beverage industries. It

NEW YORK (AP) — Authorities are stepping up security at the headquarters of an international Jewish organization in Brooklyn after a mentally ill man wandered inside the library and stabbed a student in the head before he was shot and killed by police.

Calvin Peters, 49, was seen on amateur video waving a knife in the Chabad-Lubavitch headquarters in Crown Heights at 1:40 a.m. Tuesday after the attack on Levi Rosenblat. The 22-year-old, wounded on the side of the head, was listed in stable condition.

New York City police said the stabbing was not believed to be connected to terrorism. But it shook the Jewish community, stillreeling over an attack on a Jerusalem synagogue by two Palestinian cousins last month that left four worshippers and an officer dead.

Police Commissioner William Bratton said the department was already on heightened alert based on the incidents in Israel. His deputy commissioner for intelligence and counterterrorism, John Miller, said there was an increased presence at religious locations.

"Given frankly the concern that the news of this story may bring to houses of worship around the city, our critical incident response vehicles which we normally post at sensitive locations depending on what the threat stream of the day is will focus on religious institutions in part," Miller said.

New York state Assemblyman Dov Hikind, whose Brooklyn constituents are largely Orthodox Jews, said the entire Jewish community was impacted by the attack,


and said synagogues may want to start taking stronger security precautions.

"Maybe it is time for synagogues ... to figure out, if someone walks in with a knife, how do you defend yourself?"

Chabad-Lubavitch officials said security was tightened, but didn't elaborate, and wouldn't say what measures were in place at the time of the attack.

Peters had wandered into the building earlier Monday and was ushered out, then returned after midnight and asked: "Do you have any books in English?" before he was escorted out again, police said. The building, which also contains a synagogue, is open 24 hours a day.

The jerky clip of the final confrontation posted online showed Peters in a waist-length jacket and hat with a knife in his right hand, surrounded by officers with drawn weaponskill all of you."

Mayor Bill de Blasio praised the work of the police. "These officers handled the situation very admirably," he said.

Chabad-Lubavitch is a large, worldwide Hasidic movement that runs schools, synagogues and other institutions and reaches out to nonobservant Jews to encourage them to embrace their heritage and religious traditions. It is active on college campuses and in cities around the globe.

Peters had a documented history of mental illness and had been arrested 19 times since 1982, most recently in 2006 for drugs, police said.

Attorney Jeffrey A. St. Clair, appearing at the Peters family's front door in Valley Stream, on Long Island, described him as bipolar. St. Clair said the family had no warning of an outburst.

"Calvin Peters was a loving and devoted father," he said. "And


"An unchecked Iran has the potential to travel the same path as North Korea," Tillerson said

U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson speaks about Iran and North Korea, after reading a statement at the State Department, on April 19, 2017 in Washington, D.C.

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson declared the Iran nuclear deal a failure on Wednesday but left open the possibility the Trump administration will uphold it nonetheless.

The top American diplomat sought to reinforce the notion that the U.S. is aggressively countering Iran's destabilizing behavior throughout the Middle East, even though President Donald Trump so far has not pulled out of the deal. Tillerson spoke a day after certifying to Congress that Iran is complying with its obligations under the 2015 deal,a requirement for Tehran to continue receiving relief from nuclear sanctions.

"The JCPOA fails to achieve the objective of a non-nuclear Iran," Tillerson said, using an acronym for the 2015 nuclear deal. "It only delays their goal of becoming a nuclear state."

He said the deal, brokered by former President Barack Obama's administration along with other world powers, represented the "same failed approach" the U.S. has taken to North Korea. Like with the North, Tillerson said, the Trump administration was unwilling to be patient with Iran, ticking through a list of countries where he said Iran was supporting terrorism and violence.

Attack Kills 13, Police Kill 5 Suspects in Spain: Officials

A white van jumped the sidewalk in Barcelona’s Las Ramblas district on Aug. 17, 2017. Police say 13 people have been


killed and more than 100 injured in this terrorist attack. The area is one of the city’s top tourist destinations. Later, police shot and killed five terror suspects in Cambrils, Spain, in a separate incident.

(Published 3 hours ago)

Tillerson's hastily arranged statement before cameras at the State Department reflected the competing forces pulling at the Trump administration as it develops its policy toward Iran. On the one hand, Trump wants to show he's being tougher than Obama toward Iran, but on the other hand, he's not yet ready to rip up the deal.

Trump as a candidate vowed to discard or renegotiate the pact, and shortly after taking office his administration put Tehran "on notice" that its troublesome behavior would no longer be tolerated. But neither Iran nor the otherpromising he'll gut the deal. Tillerson said that decision will be made as part of a governmentwide review of Iran policy currently under way.

"The Trump administration has no intention of passing the buck to a future administration on Iran," Tillerson said.

In an ominous warning, Tillerson linked Iran's behavior to that of North Korea and said that with both countries, the U.S. would no longer engage in "strategic patience." The U.S. has been exploring ways to address the threat of North Korea's nuclear program, which is significantly farther along than Iran's.

"An unchecked Iran has the potential to travel the same path as North Korea — and to take the world along with it," Tillerson said.


Causal analysis on the use of dental services among old-age pensioners in Norway.
The purpose of the present paper was to establish and evaluate a causal model on the use of dental services in Norwegian old-age pensioners living at home. Data were derived from the Health Survey of 1975. The independent variables sex, age, education and dental status were dichotomized and arranged in this assumed temporal sequence. The dependent variable was also dichotomized into use versus non-use of dental services last year. The analysis started with the bivariate percentage table for sex and use, and then proceeded by adding one by one of the independent variables in the order of their time sequence. In this way the statistical relationship between an independent and the dependent variable was decomposed intoHe was a victim of cruel fate, a young American living in the USSR forced to endure unimaginable torture and brutal beatings, who would later be one of the many sources for Gulag Archipelago. In 1933 Alexander Dolgun’s father went to the Soviet Union to work as an automotive technician; however, when his short-term contract expired, he was not allowed to leave. Alexander and his sister Stella thus grew up in Moscow during the Great Purge and World War II. He started working at Embassy Moscow in 1943 at the age of 16. In 1948 he was apprehended by State Security and interrogated at the notorious KGB headquarters at Lubyanka on suspicions of espionage. He was brutally tortured and finally forced to “confess.” He was then transferred to


Sukhanovka prison, which was known for being even worse than Lubyanka. His nightmare had only begun.

He survived several months of intense torture and was one of a very few who survived the prison with their sanity intact, using tactics such as measuring the distances he covered walking; he estimated that he “walked” from Moscow through Europe and halfway across the Atlantic Ocean.

Dolgun was eventually sentenced to 25 years in the Gulag, the network of prisoner work camps scattered throughout the Soviet Union, and ended up in Kazakhstan, where he was interned for several months until being called back to Moscow. His recall was initiated by the infamous General Mikhail Ryumin, No. 2 in the Soviet Union’s State Security Department, who wanted to use Dolgun as a puppet ina show trial. Dolgun was once again sent to Sukhanovka, where Ryumin personally tortured and beat him in an effort to get him to confess to a number of plots and conspiracies against the Soviet Union. According to Dolgun and others, his whereabouts were known by the U.S. government, which did nothing purportedly because bilateral relations were so fragile. For several months, Dolgun endured this torture without succumbing until political shifts resulted in a loss of interest in the show trial and Dolgun was shipped back to Kazakhstan, where he stayed until 1956.

After his release from prison, Dolgun returned to Moscow, where he was not allowed to contact American authorities. He discovered that both his mother and father had been tortured in an effort to pressure them to


implicate him, driving his mother to insanity. He took a job translating medical journals into English and befriended several notable Gulag survivors, including Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. Solzhenitsyn included some of Dolgun’s experiences in his work The Gulag Archipelago (referring to him as “Alexander D”). Dolgun married in 1965 and he and his wife had a son. His mother died in 1967, and his father in 1968. In 1971, through the efforts of his sister, Stella Krymm, who escaped the Soviet Union in 1946, and U.S. Ambassador to Austria John P. Humes, Dolgun managed to get an exit visa and relocate to Rockville, Maryland. (It was at this time that Norwegian journalist Per Egil Hegge, who was posted in Moscow, became the first person to interview Solzhenitsyn after he hadwon the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1970.)

Dolgun took a job at the Soviet-American Medicine section at the National Institutes of Health. In 1975, he published the bestseller Alexander Dolgun’s Story: An American in the Gulag. In 1972, he received back pay of $22,000 from Embassy Moscow for the period of service from 1949 to 1956 and complained that he was paid “peanuts” for his time and should have, at the least, received interest on his salary. He died in 1986 at the age of 59 in Maryland. Peter Swiers served as a consular officer at Embassy Moscow from 1970 to 1972. He was interviewed beginning in 1994.

“There was no effort by the embassy to contact him for those 12 years”

SWIERS: There was another case. It was most


interesting and concerned Alexander Dolgun, who was an American citizen born in [the Bronx], New York, of Polish parents. He and his sister were born there. In the 1930s, the parents “returned” to the Soviet Union. I assume they had been born there before Poland became independent. They took their two children with them; they were one of those couples who had been attracted by socialism. The Dolgun children for some reason or another never accepted this philosophy and never became part of the system. I never explored the psychology of this in depth with Alexander. During the war, the parents were alive; the father became a chauffeur to some very high official, but there was something complicated in the life. The sister got a job with theBritish military mission during the war and Alexander was employed by our embassy. At the end of the war, the British got the sister out by putting her on a train to Helsinki, sitting between two British military liaison officers. The sister was willing to leave. I believe their father had died by then. When I later met the sister, she had married an Austrian working for the IAEA [International Atomic Energy Agency] and was living in Vienna.

Alexander, on the other hand, foolishly decided to stay on and take care of his mother. He had a good job at the embassy. He even had an apartment in the embassy complex. He was in this “never-never” status – he was an American citizen and he had an American passport


but lived permanently in the Soviet Union. He had refused to accept Soviet citizenship. In 1948 he was, in the classic fashion, grabbed on what used to be Gorky Street and disappeared…. He was first taken to Lubyanka and then to Sukhanovka which is even a worse prison, interrogated by the commander of the prison, who was a sadist. He nearly died and eventually was sent to the Gulag. Because of his illness, he was put into a hospital where he learned to be a practical nurse and developed a skill with medical books.

Finally, in 1956, he was pardoned, not released, and forced to accept a Soviet passport. Then he made a living as a translator at a Western medical publications office until his sister managed to visitwalked back, I could see him signaling to a fellow officer and had him come in while he ran to the phone. At the appointed time, when I came out again (our embassy had two archways), I could see Dolgun walking and I knew him instantly, even though I had never seen the man before, because he looked like an American. It’s something I confess that still gives me a certain emotion today. He had his head up high while a Soviet would come past the embassy slightly hunched over. There was something in him that made you realize that he was an American in spite of the fact that he had lived in the Soviet Union since he was a teenager. The clothing he was wearing was


Russian, but he was an American. It was the most extraordinary feeling.

I went out and put myself between him and the militia and brought him into the embassy. He started to tell me a story of what had happened. It was sort of an opening of things and I just pointed and told him that we would have plenty of time in the future to talk about this.

Q:You knew that the place was bugged?

SWIERS: Yes, there was no way that we could carry on a conversation, particularly if he wanted to say anything sensitive, because I’m sure all of the bugs were on unless we had cleared them out. We simply assumed, even though there had been a major effort to clean out back in the 1960s, thatwe went right in. I literally walked him to the plane and we got him out to Vienna and to his sister.

It’s interesting now that he can finally tell the full story. First of all, his wife’s father was a KGB officer. He and his wife were divorced, but nevertheless it really upset the KGB that this was happening, since they had a little son. More importantly though, as we learned a few months later, there was a report that a woman in Leningrad who had been one of the messengers for Solzhenitsyn’s Gulag who had hanged herself [probably Solzhenitsyn’s typist, Elizaveta Voronyanskaya, who was arrested by the KGB, was released, and then hanged herself a few days later, in August 1973]. A Norwegian correspondent named Per Egil


Hegge, whom we knew, was PNGed after that [declared persona non grata and forced to leave the country]. He had gone up to Leningrad to see this woman. She had been one of his contacts and I assume Per Egil Hegge was one of the couriers that helped to get Solzhenitsyn’s book draft out of the country.

Q:We’re talking about the book, Solzhenitsyn’s Gulag Archipelago.

SWIERS: The last time that Per Egil Hegge got to Leningrad he was accosted by hoodlums, who beat him up and more specifically smashed his eyeglasses. He was quite myopic and he had no choice but to go back to Moscow and then he was subsequently PNGed. In fact my wife and I were at lunch at his house when he was late coming home;Related News

FORT MEADE, Md./BOSTON (Reuters) - A military judge on Tuesday found U.S. soldier Bradley Manning not guilty of aiding the enemy, the most serious charge he faced for handing over documents to WikiLeaks, but he still likely faces a long jail term after being found guilty of 19 other counts.

Colonel Denise Lind ruled the 25-year-old Army private first class was guilty of five espionage charges, among many others, for the largest unauthorized release of classified U.S. data in the nation's history.

The trove of documents, including battlefield videos and diplomatic cables, was a huge boost to the profile of the WikiLeaks anti-secrecy website and its founder Julian Assange. Tuesday's verdict could be a blow to his efforts to encourage people with access to secret information to release


it publicly.

Supporters of Manning called the verdict overreaching.

"It is a short-sighted judgment that cannot be tolerated and it must be reversed," Assange told reporters at the Ecuadorean embassy in London, where he has been living for more than a year. "The abuse of Bradley Manning has left the world with a sense of disgust."

Manning, who was working as a low-level intelligence analyst in Baghdad when he was arrested three years ago, could face up to 136 years in military prison. Lind will take up the question of his sentence on Wednesday.

Wearing his dress uniform, the slightly built Manning showed little reaction during the five-minute hearing.

The U.S. government was pushing for a life sentence without parole, which would have come if Manning had been convicted of aiding the enemymonth, despite U.S. calls for Russian authorities to turn him over.

Army prosecutors contended during Manning's court-martial that U.S. security was harmed when WikiLeaks published videos of a 2007 attack by an American Apache helicopter gunship in Baghdad that killed a dozen people, including two Reuters news staff, diplomatic cables and secret details on prisoners held at Guantanamo Bay.

Manning's leaks to the site in 2009 and 2010 put the international spotlight on Assange.

The verdict may embolden the U.S. government to bring a criminal case against Assange, said James Goodale, a lawyer and author with expertise in press freedom.

"The bottom line is they won because the guy leaked illegally, and they're only going to be encouraged to get the guy who's on the other side of that equation," said Goodale,


been served today. PFC Manning harmed our national security, violated the public's trust, and now stands convicted of multiple serious crimes," said Representatives Michael Rogers, a Republican who chairs the committee and Dutch Ruppersberger, a Democrat and its ranking member.

During the court-martial proceedings, military prosecutors called the defendant a "traitor" for publicly posting information that the U.S. government said could jeopardize national security and intelligence operations.

Defence lawyers described Manning as well-intentioned but naive in hoping that his disclosures would provoke a more intense debate in the United States about diplomatic and military actions in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Now, while many of these players fade into obscurity after their collegiate careers come to a close, a select few go on to stardom at the next level. So, keeping that in mind, let’s take a look at the most notable NBA players from each Elite Eight team.

Each Elite Eight Team’s Best NBA Player

Who could forget the Fab Five? The group of starting Michigan freshmen, led by Chris Webber, electrified the nation and inspired youngsters across the country to don black socks and baggy shorts. But it wasn’t just the style that made Webber such a special talent. The first team All-American was a terror in the Big Ten, using his 6’9″ frame to bully opposing big


men on a nightly basis. He helped lead the Wolverines to back-to-back national championship game appearances, but unfortunately (due to a regrettable timeout call) was never able to deliver a title to Ann Arbor.

Webber easily carried over his success at the collegiate level to the pros. He was the No. 1 overall selection in the 1993 Draft and went on to play 15 years in the league. During that time, he was selected to five NBA All-Star games, averaging 20.7 PPG and 10.0 RBG over the course of his career. The Sacramento Kings retired C-Webb’s number in 2009 and he is currently a 2018 finalist for the NBA Hall of Fame.

Kansas State: Mitch Richmond

Mitch Richmond has his name and number hanging from the rafters at Kansas State’s BramlageColiseum. Though he spent only two years in Manhattan, Richmond was able to create a lasting legacy. Richmond led the Wildcats to consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances in the late ’80s, taking them as far as the Elite Eight before being upset by the eventual national champion, the Kansas Jayhawks, in 1988. The guard scored 1,327 points during his tenure, which still holds as the KSU record over a two-year career.

Following those explosive two seasons, Richmond began an illustrious pro career after he was selected No. 5 overall in the 1988 NBA Draft by the Golden State Warriors. And the train didn’t stop rolling there. The sharpshooter would go on to be named Rookie of the Year, get selected to six All-Star games, and win both an NBA title


and an Olympic gold medal. It was no surprise that he was selected to the NBA Hall of Fame in 2014.

Although Sister Jean and the Ramblers have captured the hearts of the nation, they haven’t been spoiled by great talent in the past. Needless to say, there weren’t too many players to pick from. As a result, I went with LaRue Martin, who enjoyed plenty of success while in college. Over his three-year career, not only did Martin stifle Bill Walton, but he also put up preposterous numbers. To be exact, he had career averages of 18.2 points and 15.9 rebounds per game.

Surprisingly, the Portland Trail Blazers selected Martin No. 1 overall in the 1972 draft – bringing on expectations that he would never quite live up to.10 of his 11 seasons with the Boston Celtics and took home two titles as a result. The big man earned the MVP award in the 1972-73 season and made a total of eight All-Star games. Not only was he honored by being named to the Naismith Hall of Fame, but he was also named one of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History during the NBA’s 50th anniversary in 1996.

Grant Hill was the poster boy for college basketball in the early 1990s. He did it all on both ends of the floor alongside Christian Laettner and Bobby Hurley. The trio would win back-to-back national titles at Duke in the 1991 and 1992 seasons. And while Laettner got a lot of the media attention, Hill’s accomplishments were nothing


to scoff at. He garnered All-American honors twice, won a Defensive Player of the Year, and took home the ACC Player of the Year award in 1994.

Unfortunately for Hill, injuries plagued much of his impressive NBA career. After the Detroit Pistons picked him No. 3 overall in 1994, Hill went on to play 19 years at the next level. Throughout that long ride, he made seven All-Star teams and earned All-NBA honors numerous times. He also took home the NBA Sportsmanship Award on three separate occasions. Hill already holds a spot in the College Basketball HOF and is currently a finalist for the NBA’s Hall of Fame as well. It leaves many to wonder just how legendary Hill could’ve been had his body held up.

Like Cowens, many folksmay not be familiar with legendary Villanova Wildcat, Paul Arizin. That’s most likely because the 6’4″ Philadelphia native played a lifetime ago, in the 1950s and ’60s. While at ‘Nova, however, Arizin was a phenom. Not only did the forward with a National Player of the Year trophy, but he also once scored 85 points in a single game. Surely enough, the Philadelphia Warriors selected Arizin with the No. 5 overall pick in the 1950 NBA Draft.

While in Philly, Arizin continued to enjoy a plethora of success. Even though he had to sit out two seasons to serve in the Korean War, Arizin still managed to turn in an astounding career. Some of his accolades include being a 10-time All-Star, two-time scoring champion, one-time NBA champion, and being


listed on both the 25th and 50th NBA Anniversary top players lists. Arizin is undoubtedly one of the greatest players in league history and should be revered for his military service as well.

The Kansas Jayhawks’ pick for this list needs no introduction. Wilt Chamberlain is not only one of the greatest NBA players ever, but he was no slouch in college, either. During his two years in Lawrence, Chamberlain averaged 29.9 points and 18.3 rebounds. He also delivered on his promise to bring a Big 7 Title to Kansas in 1957. Unfortunately, the team’s lost its title hopes in the Final Four later that year, but Chamberlain was still named the Most Outstanding Player. He was inducted into the College Basketball Hall of Fame in 2009.

There isn’t enoughthe Red Raiders from 1975-1979. Over the course of his career, he averaged a moderate 9.1 points per game. From there, it was off to the NBA, by way of the third round of the 1979 draft.

Huston played in 496 games at the pro level with five different teams. He never really managed to make a lasting impact at any stop he made. During his time in the league, Huston averaged a quality 8.8 points and 5.1 assists while bouncing back and forth from a starter to a reserve role. Surely, an electric Texas Tech player will make an impact at the next level soon, but until then, Huston is carrying the torch.

Priced out of much of Los Angeles, young professionals are zeroing on several neighborhoods around USC and to the west, as the expanding Expo light rail line delivers new residents to the area.

Communities such as Jefferson Park, Leimert Park and West Adams are attracting buyers — and investors — seeking their relative affordability, location between the Westside and downtown Los Angeles, and the rail link between the two.

The influx comes as the once-struggling communities now see potential for new investment along major boulevards of South Los Angeles such as West Adams, Jefferson and Crenshaw. Prices are shooting up: In the ZIP Codes covering these neighborhoods, the median home price jumped 40.6%, to $450,000, in the first quarter compared with a year earlier, according to San Diego research firmmajority African American. Many new arrivals are white. The neighborhoods — largely west of USC and south of the 10 Freeway — are distinct.

Stately Victorian and Craftsman mansions of West Adams once housed Los Angeles’ white, and later, black elite. It is also home to the well-known First African Methodist Episcopal Church of Los Angeles.

Farther west, off Crenshaw, Leimert Park Village was a lively hub of African American arts and culture, but less so now.

Jefferson Park, centered along Jefferson Boulevard, is home to smaller Craftsman bungalows, brick warehouses, colorful wall murals and small, aging storefronts. Also there is the upscale restaurant Harold & Belle’s, a Jefferson Park institution serving Creole specialties in an area once known as Little New Orleans.

Typically, men shave facial hair once a day and women shave their legs and under arms periodically. This can be an uncomfortable undertakings in which the person shaving receives cuts which can be temporarily disfiguring and painful. In addition, razor pull can make shaving unpleasant and time consuming.
Shaving can also be expensive because blades become dull relatively quickly due to corrosion and other factors which result from shavers not thoroughly cleaning their razors as well as from the condition of water used when shaving. In addition, the cutting edges of razor blades tend to corrode when left exposed to the atmosphere after having been subjected to the mechanical stress of cutting hair and the chemical action of tap water and corrosive components in shaving lathers and gels.Conservatives are suspicious of John McCain and evangelicals have problems with Mitt Romney's Mormon religion.

In Chapel Hill, North Carolina today, Elizabeth Edwards announced the return of cancer, saying it's incurable but treatable. Former Senator John Edwards said that means his presidential campaign can continue. A breast cancer survivor who will require bone cancer treatment for the rest of her life, Mrs. Edwards says she's "ready" to go back on the campaign trail. Also today, the Senate Judiciary Committee has authorized subpoenas for White House aides after some heavy debate. Ron Brownstein is a political columnist for the Los Angeles Times.

Republican presidential politics are in a state of confusion. The party base is conservative on economics, national security and social issues, but the most socially liberal of three leading contenders is leading in party polls: pro-choice,three-times-married, Rudi Giuliani has the edge at the moment over John McCain and Mitt Romney. Conservative Republicans have booed McCain and evangelicals are openly skeptical of Romney's Mormon religion. Will the party base give up its "litmus test" on social issues to get a hawk on national security? Are both moderates and conservatives looking for new faces? We hear from journalists, politicians and evangelicals.

Bill Richardson has an extraordinary resume. ongressman; Secretary of Energy; Ambassador to the UN; now, Governor of New Mexico. Unofficially, he's been a successful negotiator in several international emergencies, including one that brought him face to face with Saddam Hussein. His English name came from his father, his mother's Hispanic, and he's on tour for his book called, Between Worlds. He's also a Democratic candidate

each national spokesperson from the participating countries will be called in to present the points of their professional jury.

After the presentation of the scores from the juries, the televoting points from all participating countries will be combined, providing one score for each song. These televoting results will then be announced by the presenters.

In 2019, the presentation of the votes changed slightly. The order in which the televoting results are revealed is determined by the ranking of the jury result. The announcement of the televoting results will start with the country receiving the fewest points from the juries and end with the country that received the highest points from the juries. The presenters shall announce the sum of points that each song has received from the votes of thetelevote across all participating countries.

For those wanting to know how their country has voted, the televoting and jury scores from each participating country will be available shortly after the Grand Final on Eurovision.tv.

The voting rules — the long version

Viewers in the countries of the Participating Broadcasters are invited to vote for their favourite songs (without the possibility of voting for the song representing their own country) by means of televoting. In addition, in each participating country, there is a National Jury.

With respect to the televoting, the song which has received the highest number of votes shall be ranked first, the song which has received the second-highest number of votes shall be ranked second and so on until the last song.

With respect to the National Jury voting, the jury


members shall rank first their favourite song, second, their second favourite song, third, their third favourite song, and so on until their least favourite song, which shall be ranked last.The rankings of the televoting and the jury will then, in each of the participating countries, be used to calculate the amount of points awarded, using the well-known and popular "Eurovision system", with the top-ranked song getting 12 points, the second-highest ranked song 10 points, and the remaining spots, from 8 points to 1 point, given to the songs ranked 3 to 10.

This means there will be two separate sets of votes awarded; the points from the juries and the points from the televote.

Voting in the Semi-Finals

Viewers at home and professional juries each determine the outcome of the twoto 8, 10 and 12, and the jury points from 1 to 8, 10 and 12. This means each participating country will award two sets of points;

The ten qualified countries will be announced at the end of each Semi-Final in the order decided by the Executive Supervisor of the Eurovision Song Contest. This order does not reflect the actual ranking on the scoreboard;

The full scoreboard will be made available shortly after the Grand Final on Eurovision.tv, to keep the excitement until the end of the Grand Final.

Voting in the Grand Final

In all participating countries, televoters and professional juries will each award 1 to 8, 10, and 12 points.

Televoters can vote via the official app, telephone and/or SMS. The voting window opens after the last song has been performed,


will vote independently;

The names of the jury members must be revealed by the relevant participating broadcasters during the Grand Final;

Each jury member of each national jury must rank all songs in the show;

The combined rank of each country’s jury members determines the jury result of that particular country;

By judging each song each jury member will focus on the vocal capacity of the artist(s), the performance on stage, the composition and originality of the song, and the overall impression by the act.

To increase diversity, music industry professionals can only take a seat in a national jury if they have not been in the jury during one of the previous two editions of the contest.

Jury member selection criteria

All jury members are music professionals. They are being asked to judge:

vocal capacity

theperformance on stage

the composition and originality of the song

the overall impression by the act

The EBU looks into each jury member together with Digame and EY, to assure they meet the requirements to take seat in a national jury. The following criteria is applied in the selection of the jury members:

Members shall not have been part of a National Jury the preceding two years.

Members of the National Juries must be music industry professionals

There shall be a balance among the members of each National Jury to ensure sufficient representativeness in terms of gender, age and background.

All members of the National Juries shall be citizens of the country they represent.

No member of a National Jury shall be connected in any way with any of the participating songs entered and/or artists performing

Joey Rovero's quest for pills ended at Pacifica Pharmacy.

It was the same for Naythan Kenney,

Matt Stavron and Joseph Gomez.

All four were patients of a Rowland Heights

physician who was a prolific prescriber of narcotic painkillers and other addictive drugs. To get their fix, they needed more than a piece of paper.

They needed a pharmacist willing to dispense the drugs, and at Pacifica they found one.

All four died of drug overdoses after filling prescriptions at the tiny pharmacy in Huntington Beach, court and coroners' records show.

Pacifica's owner, Thang Q. "Frank"


Tran, sold pain medications in large quantities. Particularly popular with his customers were high-dose, 80-milligram tablets of OxyContin. Tran filled nearly twice as many of those prescriptions as did nearby Walgreens, CVS and Sav-On pharmacies combined, according to state records.

Many of his customers traveled long distances and paid cash. Rovero drove more than 350 miles from Arizona State University in Tempe to get his prescriptions in Rowland Heights and then 33 more miles to the pharmacy.

"I thought to myself, 'Why in the world would these kids go that much farther out of their way?' " said April Rovero, whose son was 21 when he died. "Someone must have told them to go there."

The yell "Grenade" didn't wake Will up. But, the sound of the explosion did. If you have ever been waked from a sound sleep by a close crash of lightning you will share Will's experience. At first, he thought that it was a close lightning bolt, but then, he noticed the berries on his home glowing, and felt a strange heat, along with the glow and the humming. The heat got worse, and Will made up his mind. "Ok, whatever it is, I would prefer not to become cooked 'possum, (brown in a 350 degree oven for a half hour)". He slid out from under the branches, and was greeted with a thick fog, except in the immediate


vicinity where the heat from the recovering leuthilalda bush had already "burned it off". "Now what was that?" He wondered. "The bush must have been protecting us from some explosion..." Then he noticed the robot-looking creatures getting up. "Oh no an invasion!" he thought, and immediately his "possum sleep" reflexes kicked in...When he awoke, he realized that the creatures were talking with - who was that? Oh, yeah, Ryana. There were a couple of other people with her that Will didn't recognize, but he realized after listening to the conversation for a few seconds, that the new metallic creatures were friendly after all. They seemed to be talking about needing somewhere to stay for now, and he decided that he should speak up, and see if there wasyou to it, if you want.”

Meanwhile, Kirane had mostly stayed off to the side. After all, Ryana was much more well-informed than she was; she would probably do more harm than good if she stepped in. However, she had noticed that the young man—a Dittopian, she assumed—suddenly seemed to lose all his curiosity, which was replaced by concern. It seemed, when Ryana described it, the idea of invasion settled in a little more profoundly for him. She was distracted by the rest of the conversation, but it seemed like every time she turned back to him, his expression had turned a little more… frantic was the wrong word, but it was the only one she could come up with.

At any rate, she’d decided that, since she had nothing


preferred walking.

This would have to change now. With her new business responsibilities, she would have to use the faster means of transport. Perhaps even - she shuddered at the mere thought of it - an airplane. But she was sure she would use that only if there was an emergency.

She had never been in London before. She had been in England several times since she discovered the portal to that world some years ago, but she had only been to Oxford - the city of that professor who had translated the Red Book. Today she had taken the train from Oxford to London, to Paddington Station, which was big enough, and then the Underground, the Tube (and it really felt like being inside a tube), to King's CrossStation, which was even bigger.

She had booked a room in a hotel across the street from the station. She found a crossing, waited for the green light, crossed the main street and continued into the small street where the hotel was the second building on the right.

The hotel was small, but nice. They gave her a room on the ground floor, with windows facing away from the street. She appreciated the chance to watch a small garden instead.

Here in London she would go to bookshops. There were of course the modern bookshops that she had read about - Foyle's was one of the largest bookshops in the world, they said, and Blackwell's, which she knew from Oxford, also had a branch in London.

But those were not her main


concern. Her primary goal were the second-hand bookshops. And the street where so many of them could be found in one area - Charing Cross Road. She would start work in earnest tomorrow - but today she would only be a tourist and do some sightseeing.

She got out her map. What did she want to see? Art galleries? Not today. Museums? Possibly ... Palaces? Now there was an idea. Perhaps she should go to the Tower of London to see the Crown Jewels?

Varna loved jewels, even though she didn't own many herself, and only had taken a single pendant along to Ditto Town. Her people, the Noldor, had been known for their craftsmanship in fashioning jewels. Her great-great-grandfather's half-brother had made the Silmarils, and his grandson had madethe three mighty Elven Rings ...

She admitted to a weakness for royal splendour. She had seen lots of pictures from the royal wedding last year, when Prince William married Kate, now Duchess of Cambridge. There had been jewels ... and gorgeous dresses ... and hats ... oh dear, some of those hats.

That was it! She would see Westminster Abbey, where the wedding had taken place. She armed herself with her map, her Travel Card and some money, and went back to the Tube station at King's Cross Station. She took Northern Line to Embankment, where she changed to Circle Line - by walking through what felt like miles of corridors - and finally reached Westminster Tube Station.

The first thing she saw when she got out of the station,


was a familiar-looking tower. The building that held Big Ben. She knew it from pictures. And those buildings reaching along the river further on from it, would be the Houses of Parliament.

She started walking alongside the Parliament. It was a large street with lots of traffic. Behind the fence she could see a few patrolling policemen. At the other end of the Parliament buildings there was a queue of tourists - oh yes, when the Parliament was in session, there was a gallery where you could watch the proceedings - or perhaps they only wanted a guided tour of the premises?

Then she reached the Abbey. A guided tour would be a good idea. She bought a ticket and waited for the tour to start.

The guide was an elderlylady (as far as mortals go), and she really knew her subject. She started by showing them some of the tombs of artists who were buried in the Abbey. Varna was especially interested in the Poets' Corner.

"Is Shakespeare buried here?" one of the other tourists asked. "He would be great enough to be given the honor, wouldn't he?"

"He would," the guide nodded, "but he's not buried here. He's buried in his hometown, Stratford-upon-Avon. And there's a special warning written on his tombstone, a curse on whoever moves his bones. So he's staying there."

Varna made a mental note of adding a few more of his plays to her collection.

They went through some side chapels and got to the main part of the church, which had been the site of


the wedding.

"This was also where the Queen was crowned sixty years ago," the guide said. "There's a special exhibition here as part of her Diamond Jubilee. The coronation always takes place at Westminster Abbey. That said, we'll now go to a chapel at the far end of the church, where the Coronation Chair is kept."

The Coronation Chair was less splendid than Varna had expected. Less gold and jewels - but it was still an impressive chair, a solemn one, giving an atmosphere of ancient authority.

Under the seat was an empty shelf. The guide pointed it out to them.

"This is where the Scottish Coronation Stone used to be kept," she said. "It had been used for the coronation of the Scottish Kings until the English captured it as spoilsof war seven hundred years ago. It was called the Stone of Scone, and also the Stone of Destiny, because it was said that it could speak and confirm that the man who was being crowned, was the true King.

"Legend says that it is the stone that Jacob used as his pillow when he dreamt about a ladder reaching up to heaven, as is told in the Old Testament.

"In 1950 it was stolen by some young Scottish nationalists, but it was found and brought back here. In 1996 it was given back to Scotland, and is now kept in the Crown Room at Edinburgh Castle - but it will be brought here next time it is needed for a coronation."

Varna thought it was a fascinating story. The guide


policemen who were facing the crowds, just like during the wedding last year.

A pity that they won't get to see the coronation, Varna thought. Even when the King and Queen come out to be drawn in the open carriage back to Buckingham Palace, that will all happen behind them. Some lucky ones, though, were facing the screen where the whole ceremony which took place inside the Abbey, was televised to the crowds outside.

The Queen had decided that she would retire. She stayed in office until her Diamond Jubilee, but the coronation of the new King, Charles III, had been planned to take place only a few weeks later - and now the day had come.

Some people were muttering objections to him using the name Charles - there hadbeen two kings by that name earlier, and neither had been a good king. King Charles I had quarrelled with the Parliament, and had been sentenced to death and executed. The current King had more names to choose from - why couldn't he rather be King George, like his grandfather?

But most people didn't mind, and King Charles III was already a popular King. And his Queen an even more popular Queen. Their son, Prince William, and his wife Kate, who were now Prince and Princess of Wales, were also vastly popular. The republicans didn't even raise their voices against the coronation.

Varna followed the ceremony on the screen. There was music, old and contemporary, and the King was given different robes. He took solemn oaths, and was given a


Sceptre and other symbolic objects. Then he was hidden under a canopy, and the TV reporter explained quietly that this was the sacrosanct moment, when the King was anointed, on his head, his hands and his heart - spiritually speaking, this was when God made him King.

All the while, the King was sitting in the Coronation Chair, over the Stone of Destiny. Much as Scottish nationalists might wish it otherwise, this was still the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland - and Scotland and Wales were as much part of Britain as England was.

Finally came the moment everyone had been waiting for. The canopy had been taken away. The Archbishop brought forth the Crown, lifted it high, and placed it carefully on the King's head. Therewas a shout from all around - "God save the King!" - and a flash of jewels throughout the Abbey as all the nobles present lifted their own coronets and put them on their heads.

A smaller crown was put on the Queen's head, and then the King left the Coronation Chair and sat down on the Throne. The bishops, and the other royals, and finally representatives of the nobles, all swore allegiance to him. The Prince of Wales as the first of his family members knelt down and swore allegiance to his father.

At last the final hymn had been sung, and the procession started their walk out of the Abbey. A few minutes now - and then the doors opened, and there they were on the steps, receiving


the applause from the crowds. There were shouts of "God Save the King." Although Varna was not in the front rows, she was tall enough to get a good view, and with her sharp eyesight she could see them clearly.

King Charles lifted his hand and waved to the crowds, his movements a bit stiff because of the heavy crown. Next to him, her crown smaller and lighter, she was standing as tall as her husband - but shorter than her son behind her - Queen Diana.

Varna relaxed in an armchair in her room back at the hotel. It had been a good day. She had enjoyed seeing Westminster Abbey. That story about the theft of the Stone of Scone was fascinating - the guide had told her thatone of the nationalists involved, one Ian Hamilton, had described it all in a book called "No Stone Unturned". She would look for that book.

In a flash she remembered seeing the chair in the main part of the Abbey. Had she really seen that? Had she seen the Coronation Chair with the Stone in place - and in use? It was so hazy - almost like a dream - but still different from a dream ...

She shook it off and went out to the Common Room to watch the news. Queen Elizabeth had been visiting a hospital which had an anniversary. She was given flowers and waved to the crowds.

Thanks to Ryadian and Aravanna for their help with this segment, and to shastastwin, whose earlier segment I’ve heavily


Maybe it’s best if each of us described what they saw today.”

One by one, each person described their experiences. He’d heard some of the accounts before, but the tales of attacks on his home and family, strange visitors and changes in his hatchlings – not to mention knowing that in some stories he was dead – all boggled his mind. I sure picked the wrong day to take a nap, Erik thought to himself. He had nothing to add, of course, and he was careful to notice Abby kept her own counsel.

Abby was last to speak. At first she’d tried to lose herself in her child’s antics but knew she had to tell those gathered around what had happened. Erik admired her strength, but she had experienced theand discoloration; if she was lucky it was only sprained. Her leg had been injured – possibly even broken – when the explosion had blown her into this tree trunk. Perhaps she’d somehow overlooked or ignored the pain then, given the excruciating agony of her burned tail, the stinging everywhere else, and the fear that Molly might have been seriously hurt. While she was thrilled that her daughter’s minor scrapes and scratches had healed in the short period of stone sleep, having to manage a healthy curious child while she remained injured only made things worse.

Her tail still throbbed, vying for her attention, but the cramps in her abdomen had almost subsided, for which she was very grateful. They had been all too reminiscent of her labor pains


with Molly, and this hatchling was far too young to survive on its own. For a moment, nightmarish visions of losing this little one filled her mind, till she forced them down with something more practical: weighing her options.

Clouds of smoke still rose from the ruins of the explosion. Blowing up the Emporium might have been a random act of violence, but then why go to the trouble of shattering Erik first? No, those responsible remained a real threat, and they were still at large. Despite all the advantages the night normally gave her, Abby was in no condition to take them on should they find her.

Walking to town wasn’t really an option. Her injured leg – and protecting a vulnerable Molly – meant she would be hamperedshould she need to fight or flee enemies this night.

Flying was out for similar reasons. While her wings may have healed enough for the short trip to town, landing would prove painful and difficult. And having to carry Molly in her arms meant possible injury to her child – or even worse, that she might drop her – risks she would not take.

Sure, flying was natural to her kind, and Molly had even begun to flap her wings when she was excited. But, like many birds, hatchlings had to be ‘convinced’ that it was safe to fly when all their instincts said the ground was the place to be. Flight lessons usually meant dropping them short distances until they got the hang of it – always under adult


an impressive specimen, one of the largest gargoyles in her clan. She looked lovingly upon the much smaller form of her mate. I could see him as a female, she grinned, recalling the light-hearted teasing about their mismatched sizes they’d endured when she’d accepted his mating proposal all those years ago. Still, while Aaron was small, his heart was huge, and no one had any reason to doubt his courage or his love for his family.

They’d only had one hatchling in this strange dream, though as she looked around at their brood she understood why. Twins would be hard for such a petite female as dream-Aaron had been.

The children were waking up now, and before long she was surrounded by a gaggle of excited hatchlings, all eager tojust had…”

[OOC]Okay, I believe this to be the "C" Universe, but I've lost track. If I'm wrong, somebody please correct me. This is the universe where shastastwin's characters have not arrived from the mist but the Emporium is still destroyed. "Evil" I believe.[/OOC]

"ALEX!" Erica screamed when she realized her brother's life was being threatened. Her voice was an octave too high and cracked with the energy of her scream. Erica rushed forward, still holding Val's body. She didn't know what she was going to do, but the desire to beat the evil man to death with her bare hands made her feel she could do anything.

"Don't, stupid girl! He has a weapon!" The woman grabbed Erica from behind and pulled her away. Erica thrashed but she only had


one free hand and had two angry fairy dragons flying in her face.

The surprised assailant took a step back and pressed his knife threateningly into Alex's throat, unsure of how to deal with the frantic new arrivals.

"Alex, what have you gotten yourself into?" said the woman, took calmly considering she was still holding Erica with an armed man only a few feet from her. Before Erica could try a second attempt to escape she was pushed violently away. There was an incredibly loud crack as she hit the ground. In her heightened state of emotion, she finally dropped her friend and threw her fists over her ears has her whole body recoiled. She knelt that way for several moments then looked up.

The man with the knife had stumbledback and let go of her brother, a look of shock fixed on his face. Blood was running down his shirt from his shoulder. Another crack rang out and this time he collapsed backwards in a spray of his own blood. Alex stood wide eyed for several seconds, clutching his throat, which had been cut enough for red to appear between his fingers.

"Sarah Johnson, what are you DOING?" he demanded of the woman, after recovering. Sarah looked back at him coldly, a pistol still extended in front of her.

"Saving your life. You're very welcome. Now what IS going on?"

"But he... you can't just shoot people! That's not how it works here!"

Erica hadn't even seen the Phoenix Archer until now. There had only been her brother in danger. It


was a rush of comfort though, knowing someone else, someone sane, was here. What little she knew about the Phoenix Archer from the patrol, this was someone who could take control of the situation.

Sarah Johnson's fairy dragons landed on her shoulders and the tall woman drew herself taller. She was clearly leery of the first person she'd ever seen with wings.

Abby’s mind was awhirl as their friends related the day’s experiences. Multiple worlds! Who would have guessed? Of course, living with Erik meant she’d heard theoretical discussion on the idea, and a few of his bedtime stories for Max had included science fiction on the topic – but now she knew it was real!

Speaking of Max, he’d started to fuss, and Ambrose’s efforts to soothe him came tobeen meaningless, as pointless as the destruction of the Emporium they had called home. Once again she vowed her children would grow up learning all about their father’s courage, love of life, and gentle spirit. She clung to the hope that today’s tears of sorrow would one day become tears of joy – that someday she would see her love again.

PRIME/ORDER

The sun was rising over the trees as Loren stirred awake. He groaned and sat up. He bones ached, and pine needles clung to his clothes and stuck in his hair. With a jolt he remembered what had happened, how the energy burst from the Hyperspace Transport Device had knocked him unconscious. Immediately he jumped up, thoughtsof his wife and unborn child's safety foremost in his mind. "Eliana!" he cried out, and hurried to the other side of the HTD where Eliana lay unmoving on the ground.

Eliana jerked awake as she heard her name being called out. "Loren!" she gasped. Her body ached. "Where am I?" Loren looked at her with concern as he squatted down next to her. "Are you all right? Is the baby OK?" he asked.

Eliana groaned. "I don't know. I hope so! How long were we out?"

"Let me help you up." Loren took his wife's hand and gently helped her to her feet. "I think all night. The sun is just rising."

"Oh," Eliana grunted. "I'm hungry. That painter deer and mashed potatoes have long since worn off."

Loren looked around. "Where's


Cameron?"

Eliana paused and glanced around the clearing. "Well, I guess he took off. Maybe he woke up before us and went to get help."

Loren and Eliana just stood contemplatively for a moment. Finally Loren broke the silence. "Well, we need to get you checked out. I think we need to go see the doctor."

Loren was confused. "Amelia?" he asked. "Who's Amelia?"

"Our daughter," she replied, confused.

"What? Who?" Loren asked, clearly confounded.

A dread filled Eliana. "Oh, no, Loren, are you suffering from amnesia?" She pushed herself up and smoothed her shirt-front over her flat stomach.

Loren's eyes widened. He placed his hand on her stomach in shock. "Where's the baby!?" he gasped, dread rising in his voice.


of a waiting runner and headed out. Her thoughts wandered through multiple fields of thought. She had not been in touch with her foster family in some time and her cousins and brother had been strangely silent. The latter, she wrote off to the fact that they had fallen out of the habit of communicating through the written word due to their abilities and missives to the elven home were hard to deliver.

After spending a moment wrestling with her boots, she dangled her feet into the bouncing brook and leaned backwards to look towards the sky. Technically, she should not have been out here alone being the king’s daughter. Not like I haven’t sidestepped rules before. A noise deep in the forest caused her to reach for theMatt Nuzzo (Everett, MA) and senior second baseman Bryan Tews (Park Ridge, IL) hit back-to-back singles, then sophomore right fielder Dan Shapiro (Basking Ridge, NJ) walked to load the bases. Sophomore third baseman Robert Papenhause (Hillsborough, CA) was able to work a 10-pitch at-bat, but went down swinging for the second out. Murphy followed with a single to left, which brought freshman Chris Tanabe (Jupiter, FL), who had pinch-run for Nuzzo, home with the tying run. Daniels came next, getting the Bears the lead on the 12th pitch of his at-bat before the inning ended after the next batter.

Junior Rob Hallberg (River Edge, NJ) pitched the ninth after retiring one batter in the eighth. He gave up two singles, but was able to hold the Bulldogs to one


run to pick up the win. Starter Ethan Silverstein (Woodbridge, CT) went five innings, giving up three runs on five hits and no walks, striking out two. Junior Alex Silverman (Wilmington, NC) bridged the gap to Hallberg, allowing just one walk and no runs or hits in 2.2 innings, strikng out one batter.

At the plate, senior catcher Devin Thomas (Gainesville, FL), Tews, and Murphy all had two hits. Thomas drove in the other two Brown runs, one coming when he brought Daniels around on a double in the first, the second on a solo home run in the sixth that made it 3-2. Daniels was 1-for-3, getting on after being hit by a pitch and notching a stolen base as well.

As of back in the year 2000, there were seven countries without a Rothschild-owned Central Bank:

Afghanistan
Iraq
Sudan
Libya
Cuba
North Korea
Iran

Then.......... along came the convenient terror of 9-11 and soon Iraq and Afghanistan had been added to the Roths bank list, leaving only five
countries without a Central Bank owned by the Rothschild Family:

Sudan
Libya
Cuba
North Korea
Iran

The only countries left in 2011 without a Central Bank owned by the Rothschild Family are:

Cuba
North Korea
Iran

First off I want to say that It's common knowledge to anyone who thinks for


themself that what happened in Libya was anything but democratic. I mean
within the first weak they had a central bank in place and were stealing oil to sell to Qatar. Gaddafi was a beloved leader who used his country's
wealth to benefit the lives of it's people. No Libyan in their right mind would protest the system that was in place. From monthly deposit's from
the oil trade, free electricity, free water, no taxes on food, interest free loans by law to free universal healthcare, free education including
college and university and also free study abroad.

The Libyans ran their own country.They had people's congresses where anybody could give his opinion. Libya has also been fighting Al Qaeda for
decades, long before the "war on terror." East of Libya was a strong recruitingground for fighters in Iraq. Those are the same people that were
given money, arms, supplies, training and the NATO airforce. The war is far from over. The green resistance is very strong, in fact they have recently
liberated the town of Al Kufra. The NTC is very weak, they control nothing. The foreign backed terrorist militias fight for control of different parts
of Libya. It is chaos. There are many different brigades such as the North Misrata brigade, the Belhadj brigade, the Hefter brigade, The salabi
brigade, the Zintan's, etc. These are the main one's that i'm aware of and they constantly fight each other, with many deaths resulting.

The Zintan brigade has Saif Al Islam(Gaddafi's most influential son) in custody and has for quite a long time now. The NTC and


all other brigades
have demanded they release him to Tripoli. They don't because they fear he will end up like his father. The NTC is in big trouble. Abdel Jalil has
escaped assassination twice, once beng shot in the hand. And Abdel Hakim Belhadj was also almost killed, and his brother was killed in Libya. I for
one wouldn't count out Libya just yet, they are very capable of getting ther country, inluding their bank, back under their control.

In regards to your list, Ignant. I remember your post as it's near identical to the one in the "Rothschild's want Iran's Banks," thread, I
suppose you missed my reply in that thread. There are currently 5 countries, not 3. They are Cuba, North Korea, Iran, Sudan and Venezuala.

Venezuala payed off all debt toyou play the game long enough to find it dull.

While Disgaea 3's gameplay is total satisfaction, the aesthetics leave quite a bit to be desired. The game fumbles hardest with music, which is by far the worst I've ever heard in a Nippon Ichi title. Tracks were so obnoxious and repetitive that my housemates ended up begging me to play with the sound off. It's a shame this isn't a 360 game, since it's a perfect candidate for custom soundtracks. On the whole, the localization is good, especially for the spoken dialogue, but it fumbles with the (frankly huge) amount of non-spoken text. Some of it is wittily translated and amusing, and Disgaea 2's irritating typos are nowhere to be seen. Unfortunately, a lot of the text was


credits rolled. The plot is somewhat troublesome since, of all the efforts Nippon Ichi has developed between this game and the original Disgaea, it is the one that most shamelessly apes the plot of the original. Protagonist Mao is essentially a nerdy Laharl, his sidekick Almaz is a masculine Flonne, and Etna's role was simply divided into two different characters (Raspberyl and Sapphire). It's pretty predictable if you know the original, and likewise, some of the jokes involving the "demon school" setting are outright moldy. A parody of the Haruhi Suzumiya dance in the opening animation, guys? That is soooo 2006. Everyone's moved on to Lucky Star memes by now.

These complaints aside, though, I can say that the characters manage to become endearing anyway, there are enough genuinelyway. Instead, Kristol watched helplessly as Trump denounced the Iraq War as a fraud and trumpeted an America First doctrine that repudiated the neocon crusading foreign policy doctrine. This past Friday, the saga of the neocons took a fresh and unexpected turn with the demise of The Weekly Standard. Launched as a “redoubt of conservatism” by Kristol, Fred Barnes, and John Podhoretz, with the backing of the Australian billionaire Rupert Murdoch, the Standard, The New Yorker noted in May 1995, “will become the nation’s only weekly journal of conservative opinion… yet it will rely for editorial inspiration on a liberal model: The New Republic. Just as Herbert Croly began The New Republic, in 1914, to conduct the intellectual debate at the climax of the Progressive Era, The Standard


appears at the dawn of a conservative one.”

That was then. Now Colorado billionaire Philip F. Anschutz, who bought the magazine from Murdoch in 2007, has decided to pull the plug, in part over the brickbats the Standard lobbed at Trump. If so, his move has pleased the president. On Saturday, Trump tweeted: “The pathetic and dishonest Weekly Standard, run by failed prognosticator Bill Kristol (who, like many others, never had a clue), is flat broke and out of business. Too bad. May it rest in peace!”

Even as Trump gloats over Anschutz’s move, however, a chorus of neocons is indicting Anschutz for willfully ending a golden age of journalism. Alfred Kazin observed in A Lifetime Burning in Every Moment, “Jews on the American scene. The neoconservatives have made itJohnny-come-latelies in their criticisms of the GOP—but from publications such as The American Conservative, American Affairs, or even National Review. In The American Conservative, Daniel Larison pillories the Trump administration for its recklessly high military budget—something no neocon would aver—and for repudiating the Iran nuclear deal, while William Ruger deems neocon historian Robert Kagan’s latest book, The Jungle Grows Back, a recipe for “forever war.”

At the same time, in The American Conservative’s latest issue, the historian Robert W. Merry declares that Trump will be a one-term president, partly because his foreign policy stands repudiate his campaign promises. His point is well-taken. It’s ironic that the Standard has imploded at the very moment when the neocons’ nemesis, Trump, has stolen their lunch money with an aggressively militarist foreign policy


that is pro-Israel, hostile to Iran and China, and disdainful of the United Nations, the International Criminal Court, and other international institutions. The only thing missing from the Trump program is the patina of democracy promotion. Perhaps the neocons have become a victim of their own success; in Merry’s words:

Trump himself has already reversed his campaign stance regarding the country’s foreign policy, having installed Mike Pompeo as secretary of state and John Bolton as national security adviser—men who personify the prevailing establishment outlook of hegemonic liberalism. Thus, because of Trump’s political and leadership shortcomings, Trump voters will see their hopes of a new direction for America trampled and thwarted.

Julius Krein, the editor of American Affairs, disavowed his support for Trump after the Charlottesville demonstrations in The New Yorkforfeiting of the cold war with American triumphalism, seizing upon its peaceful conclusion to search for new monsters to destroy abroad, whenever and wherever they could. The Standard itself constantly published taradiddles about the Middle East and Islam. Stephen F. Hayes, its last editor, lauded for his “integrity and courage” in the Trump era by David Brooks, wrote a phantasmagoric book called The Connection: How al Qaeda’s Connection With Saddam Hussein Has Endangered America, not to mention reverential biographies of Dick Cheney and Paul Wolfowitz.

For his part, Kristol co-wrote a book with Lawrence F. Kaplan called The War Over Iraq that supported a worldwide crusade for democracy. Far from spreading democracy, the Iraq War ended up not only spreading chaos in the Middle East, but also enabling the


rise of Trump. As Carlos Lozada recently observed in The Washington Post, “The Never Trumpers hold everyone culpable for the appeal of Trumpism except, in any worthwhile way, themselves.”

Indeed, it would be difficult to point to any significant essays that the Standard has published in recent years. Many of the more prominent neocons who originally wrote for it have moved on to more mainstream outlets. The Washington Post, whose editorial page championed the Iraq War, has become a kind of bulletin board for Never Trumpers, including Max Boot, a regular on CNN and a fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, and Jennifer Rubin, a former contributor to Human Events, Commentary, and the Standard. Both Bari Weiss and Bret Stephens decamped from The Wall Street Journal for higherprofile jobs at The New York Times. Robert Kagan has long since left the Standard and the Project for the New American Century behind to become a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. David Frum, who regularly wrote for the Standard and was a fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, is a staff writer at The Atlantic.

For most neocons, however, journalism has never been more than a Leninist means to an end—to form an intellectual vanguard. For it is political influence that the neocons crave. In his memoir, Boot proudly recounts that he served as an adviser to Senator Marco Rubio as well as to Mitt Romney during his run for the presidency in 2012. Kristol worked to destroy the 1993 Clinton Healthcare bill and sought to mold


first Dan Quayle, then Sarah Palin, into his political homunculi. During the 2016 primary, he desperately cast about for a viable candidate to oppose Donald Trump and incurred much ridicule when he floated the name of David French, a writer for the National Review.

Kristol, Podhoretz, Boot, and others belong to a second generation of neocons that never drifted away from the Democrats toward the Republican Party. Instead, they were right from the beginning. While some have begun to duplicate the odyssey in reverse that neocon elder Norman Podhoretz chronicled in memoirs such as Breaking Ranks and Ex-Friends, many seem simply politically adrift, like Russian exiles stranded in Paris after the Bolshevik revolution pining for the ancien régime.

A conference attended by about a hundred people last week at theNiskanen Center, a small think tank located near Capitol Hill, offered a timely reminder of their losses. The conference was not, as one might have expected in the past, held at the American Enterprise Institute, whose senior vice president, Danielle Pletka, has suggested that fears of climate change may be overblown, or the Heritage Foundation. Rather, it is the Niskanen Center that has become the unofficial headquarters of what amounts to a rebel alliance of Democrats and Republicans united against Trump. Over the past year, they have met on Tuesday mornings for off-the-record events under the auspices of a group called the Meeting of the Concerned, whose members include George Conway, the husband of Kellyanne, and David Frum. In November, the group released a formal statement in support


of Special Counsel Robert Mueller that was signed by Mickey Edwards, the former chairman of the House Republican Policy Committee, and Kristol, among others.

The conference, which opened with moderate Republican Maryland Governor Larry Hogan reminding the attendees that his father, a congressman, had helped kickstart the impeachment hearings against Richard M. Nixon, was titled “Starting Over: the Center-Right After Trump.” But Kristol, Jennifer Rubin, Mona Charen, the author of a book about liberals during the cold war titled Useful Idiots, and Peter Wehner, a former speechwriter for George W. Bush, grappled uneasily with the historical legacy of the GOP and its implications for Trump’s rise.

The center’s president, Jerry Taylor, suggested, “There was a time not that long ago when you all… had the commanding heights of the worldNordenskjöld Lake

The Nordenskjöld ( or ) is a lake in Torres del Paine National Park in the Magallanes Region, southern Chile. The lake is named after the Swede Otto Nordenskiöld who discovered the lake in the beginning of the 20th century. The outfall of Nordenskjöld Lake consists of a waterfall known as Salto Grande. At this western end of the lake on the southern side is an abundance of wildlife including wild grazing guanaco.

Human Rights Watch interviewed more than 200 people between December 2011 and February 2014 in four different regions of Japan.

Former Australia Test great Michael Hussey believes all-rounder Hilton Cartwright will fill the number six batting berth for the start of the Magellan Ashes Series next week, but has urged national selectors to seriously consider the recent form of his ex-national and state teammate, Shaun Marsh.

The National Selection Panel will convene later today to finalise Australia’s squad for the first two Tests against England in Brisbane and Adelaide – to be announced on Friday - and they are expected to reserve the right to make additions to that squad for the day-night Test at Adelaide Oval if required.

Appearing on The Unplayable Podcast prior to Western Australia opener Cameron Bancroft posting a double-century in the JLT Sheffield Shield match against South Australia yesterday, Hussey backed opener Matthew Renshaw toretain his place in the Test XI but was torn between naming Cartwright and Marsh.

The 42-year-old, who was a key member of Ricky Ponting’s team that completed a 5-0 Ashes whitewash in Australia 11 years ago, also believes that while former keeper Peter Nevill was harshly dealt with when dropped last summer, it would be a similarly cruel call to remove Matthew Wade for the start of the upcoming England campaign.

"He's in the form of his life!" Bancroft's special moment

Hussey said it was vital the selectors picked the best-credentialled, in-form players to maximise the prospects of a first-up win at the Gabba, and exclude considerations such as fears a bowler might breakdown later in the series due to heavy workloads.

“I don’t like to look too far ahead,” Hussey


that they’ve made that choice and bought in Matthew Wade, I think they should stick with the incumbent, show him a bit of faith and a bit of belief in him and hope that he can return that with his keeping and also by making some runs as well.”

QUICK SINGLE Ponting hits back at Ashes greats

Hussey also likened the scenario facing Queensland opener Renshaw, who like Wade was elevated to Test ranks in the aftermath of the series loss to South Africa, to the one in which he found himself leading into the 2010-11 Ashes summer in Australia.

In three Sheffield Shield matches leading into the first Test starting on November 23, 21-year-old Renshaw has scored 70 runs at an average of 11.67 while fellow opener Bancroft (425 runsat 141.67) has been the dominant batter of the Shield summer to date.

Hussey found himself the target of intense pre-Ashes scrutiny as to whether he should retain his place in Australia’s Test XI in late 2010, and that debate intensified when he returned three consecutive single-figure scores (including two ducks) in Shield games prior to the first Test and claimed he “kept finding crazy ways to get out”.

However, he struck form with a century in the final Shield match before the opening Test at the Gabba and claimed that by the time the Australia squad assembled for the Ashes he felt a huge sense of relief at having retained his place, which enabled him to take a more relaxed approach to his batting.

QUICK SINGLE Bancroft's bumpy road to

During the Great War, Viceron was involved somehow in the greater conflicts occurring across Polaris. The warbot Cronk was stationed at the Upsilon Outpost on planet Viceron for some time during the conflict.

Viceron much later on became the home of Zordoom Prison. It was not until the rise of Percival Tachyon and his empire that Zordoom notoriety rose to epic proportions. Because of Zordoom Prison, Viceron was voted the second worst tourist location by the GrummelNet Intergalactic Travel Guide, only being beaten by planet Jasindu, which held Kerchu City.
