in New York, in 1957, he met his future wife, Eva Kastan, who was a fellow refugee.[12] They met while he held a job as a busboy and she was a waitress. They married in June 1958 and remained married until his death. They had two daughters, Karen Grove and Robie Spector, and eight grandchildren.[13][14]

After completing his Ph.D. in 1963, Grove worked at Fairchild Semiconductor as a researcher, and by 1967 had become its assistant director of development.[16] His work there made him familiar with the early development of integrated circuits, which would lead to the "microcomputer revolution" in the 1970s. In 1967, he wrote a college textbook on the subject, Physics and Technology of Semiconductor Devices.[17]

In 1968, Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore co-founded Intel, after they andGrove left Fairchild Semiconductor. Grove joined on the day of its incorporation, although was not a founder according to the company. Fellow Hungarian émigré Leslie L. Vadász was Intel's fourth employee.[4] Grove worked initially as the company's director of engineering, and helped get its early manufacturing operations started. In 1983, he wrote a book, High Output Management, in which he described many of his methods and manufacturing concepts.[15]

Initially, Intel primarily manufactured dynamic memory chips, DRAMs. By 1985, with less demand for their memory, production problems, and the challenges created by Japanese "dumping" of memory chips at below-cost prices, Grove was forced to make radical changes.[18] As a result, he chose to discontinue producing DRAMs and focus instead on manufacturing microprocessors. Grove played a key role in negotiating with


IBM to use only Intel microprocessors in all their new personal computers.

The company's revenue increased from $2,672 in its first year to $20.8 billion in 1997. Grove was Intel's president in 1979, its CEO in 1987 and its chairman and CEO in 1997. He relinquished his CEO title in May 1998, having been diagnosed with prostate cancer a few years earlier, and remained chairman of the board until November 2004. Grove continued his work at Intel as a senior advisor and had been a lecturer at Stanford University. He reflected back upon Intel's growth through the years:

In various bits and pieces, we have steered Intel from a start-up to one of the central companies of the information economy.[15]

Grove is credited with having transformed Intel from a manufacturer ofmemory chips into one of the world's dominant producers of microprocessors. During his tenure as CEO, Grove oversaw a 4,500% increase in Intel's market capitalization from $4 billion to $197 billion, making it the world's 7th largest company, with 64,000 employees. Most of the company's revenues were reinvested in research and development, along with building new facilities, in order to produce improved and faster microprocessors.[15]

As director of operations, manufacturing became Grove's primary focus and his management style relied heavily on his management concepts. As the company expanded and he was appointed chairman, he became more involved in strategic decision-making, including establishing markets for new products, coordinating manufacturing processes and developing new partnerships with smaller companies.

Grove helped create the Intel Architecture Laboratory (IAL) in Oregon to ensure that software


was developed in time to take advantage of their new microprocessors. Grove stated that "you are making decisions about what the information technology world will want five years into the future ..."[15] He created a culture within Intel that allowed innovation to flourish. As CEO, he wanted his managers to always encourage experimentation and prepare for changes, making a case for the value of paranoia in business. He became known for his guiding motto: "Only the paranoid survive," and wrote a management book with the same title.[20]

According to Grove, "Business success contains the seeds of its own destruction,"[15] explaining that "Success breeds complacency. Complacency breeds failure. Only the paranoid survive."[20] As a result, he urges senior executives to allow people to test new techniques, new products, new saleshave known him, such as venture capitalist Arthur Rock, have stated that "he has no airs." Grove has lived modestly without expensive cars or an airplane.[13]

Grove was noted for making sure that important details were never missed, with one of his favorite sayings being, "The devil is in the details." Intel Vice President Dennis Carter states that "Andy is very disciplined, precise, and detail oriented ... But at the same time, he has an element of intuition and creativity that is fundamental to Intel's innovation."[15] According to Industry Week magazine, Grove feared that the "brilliance that sparked the creation of Intel" during its early years, "might come to nothing if somebody didn't pay attention to details." Carter recalls that Grove would even correct his spelling errors:

When he came


to this country from Hungary in 1956, he didn't speak English. Yet I learned spelling from him. Not only does he have the instincts of a teacher, but he also has a great deal of patience.[15]

"The Father of OKR" (Objectives and Key Results) Approach to Management[edit]

One of the earliest investors in Google, John Doerr, called Andy Grove the "Father of OKRs" in Doerr's 2018 book, Measure What Matters: How Google, Bono, and the Gates Foundation Rock the World with OKRs.[24] An acronym for Objectives and Key Results, it became central to Google's culture as a "management methodology that helps to ensure that the company focuses efforts on the same important issues throughout the organization."[25] The objective is the clearly-defined goal, while the key results were the specific benchmarkscreate a patchwork of different laws.[33]

Grove was also a noted author and scientist. His first book on semiconductors, Physics and Technology of Semiconductor Devices (1967),[17] has been used by leading universities. Another book he wrote on business operation methods, High Output Management (1983), has been translated into 11 languages. He also wrote over 40 technical papers and held several patents on semiconductor devices.[34]

Grove wrote Only the Paranoid Survive, a business book, whose core message is that a company in pursuit of a stronger competitive advantage never rests.[35]

Grove was also instrumental, as a key fundraiser, in establishing the University of California, San Francisco's Mission Bay Campus, the largest ongoing biomedical construction project in the world.[37] Chancellor Sam Hawgood said that Grove's "generous and tireless support of UCSF has transformed


our university and helped accelerate our research into breakthrough treatments and better patient care."[37]

UCSF Mission Bay campus

Among the research facilities which he helped fund were the UCSF Prostate Cancer Center, the Helen Diller Family Cancer Research Building, and the Clinical and Translational Science Institute. He also promoted general surgery initiatives and supported various obstetrics and gynecology research programs.[37]

Grove was a longtime member of the International Rescue Committee (IRC), along with being one of its overseers and a member of its board of directors. He was also the founding supporter of the IRC's Pathways to Citizenship program. In 2010, the IRC honored him as one of ten distinguished refugees.[38] In an interview in Esquire magazine in 2000, Grove encouraged the United States to be "vigilant as a nation tohave tolerance for difference, a tolerance for new people." He pointed out that immigration and immigrants are what made America what it is.[22]

The 1st Annual Heinz Award in Technology, the Economy and Employment.[39] Grove received the award in 1995, and he was honored by the foundation for representing a story "as old as America: the story of a young immigrant rising to great success." The donors of the award added that Grove "has played perhaps the single most pivotal role in the development and popularization of the twentieth century's most remarkable innovation – the personal computer."[34]


favorite stuffed animal, his penguin from the movie Happy Feet.

First I had D create a Happy Birthday card for "Penguin." He loves to color and decorate with stickers so this just added to the party fun.

While we were digging around for the decorations we found a present for Penguin (a stuffed toy that I got at a blogging conference) and we put him in a decorative box. Then it was off to decorate! D helped me smooth the plastic table cloth and then he started putting out the table decorations. The cute Mickey Mouse ear idea was found on Pinterest. Where else?! Check it out. And since one of D's favorite things are balloons I had to blow them up and rub against the wall. He loved that.

Anonymous benefactor and San Francisco real estate investor Jason Buzi, who started the Twitter handle @HiddenCash, has been making his way to various cities this weekend, dropping money-filled envelopes around New York and Houston.

"I found $60 from Hidden Cash on Twitter," he told NBC Chicago. "It's been a great time. It's fun, really fun."

Fernandez said he has been following the movement since it first gained popularity on the West Coast.

"I'm definitely going to help people out now when I get the chance," he said. "All because [@HiddenCash]."

Employees working in the area said they were surprised by the scavenger hunt.

Williams Resigns Himself to Obvious, Quits as Padre Manager

YUMA, Ariz. — Dick Williams became major league baseball's first AWOL manager Monday when he missed the San Diego Padres' 9:30 a.m. workout here.

Finally, Williams showed up at a morning press conference in San Diego to announce that he had resigned.

He began: "For the past few weeks, I have been asking myself, 'Do I really want to manage the Padres another year?' My honest answer, finally, was 'No.' "

Padre owner Joan Kroc, who backed Williams after an apparent front-office schism this winter, concluded: "His (Williams') leadership gave San Diego its first National League pennant. He taught us championship baseball, and he gave us the thrill of winning. . . . Dick, I'll never forget that season we dedicated to RayKroc, the wonderful summer of 1984."

She paused to kiss Williams on the lips.

As Williams said goodby at his press conference, pitchers and catchers were jogging around the training complex, already ridding themselves of their problems with Williams.

"I guess a lot of guys around here were up-tight around the guy," third baseman Graig Nettles said of Williams. "I don't know who the new manager will be, but most of the guys are happy."

And as of Monday night, nobody knew who would replace Williams, although sources close to the team said former Oakland A's Manager Steve Boros is the leading candidate and would probably interview with Kroc today. Boros, who is the Padre coordinator of minor league instruction, left Yuma on Monday afternoon as did Padre General Manager Jack McKeon.

McKeon


refused comment Monday, saying the team would not name a manager until team president Ballard Smith returned from a business trip in Australia. Smith was due back late Monday night or this morning.

Boros, who could not be reached for comment, is a long-time friend of McKeon's and coached in Kansas City when McKeon was manager there in the 1970s.

Although he is a leading candidate, Boros is not the only candidate. Others include:

--Jack Krol. The Padre first base coach said Monday: "Anyone would be interested in managing this club because it's such a good club."

Krol was a finalist for the St. Louis job in 1978 but lost out to Ken Boyer.

--Harry Dunlop. He was last year's Padre bullpen coach before Williams asked that his contract not be renewed. Dunloplikely will hire their manager by Wednesday, when the entire roster is due to report.

Meanwhile, Williams will report only to his wife, Norma. She apparently has been after him to quit, but since Williams would not answer any questions Monday, it is impossible to pinpoint exactly his reasons for resignation.

One source close to Williams did say, however: "The players are why. The players got what they wanted."

And Ozzie Virgil, Williams' friend and third-base coach who also resigned Monday, said: "Dick has his ups and downs like anyone else. He doesn't give in to players. He feels they should perform, and if they can't cope or take criticism, that's wrong. . . . I think that's why he left. Because some of the players went hard on him."

Yes, some


players have been hard on him. Pitcher Andy Hawkins said Monday: "We had a perfect relationship last year--We didn't talk. We were cordial to each other, but that was it. There's always been (tension between Williams and the team). He always held a whip over us."

Still, this is the earliest a manager has resigned in a season. The Philadelphia Phillies' Eddie Sawyer held the previous record, quitting the day after opening day in 1960. Gene Mauch replaced him.

Williams apparently called Kroc this weekend to tell her the news. Kroc told Smith, who then called McKeon at approximately 2 a.m. Monday.

It was sudden. Williams appeared at a showing of the Padre highlight film about three weeks ago, and everything seemed normal. Originally he told McKeon he would arrive inImage copyright AFP Image caption MPs criticised auditor KPMG and the industry as a whole after Construction giant Carillion collapsed in January 2018

The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) is to be scrapped and replaced by a new regulator for accountancy firms, the UK government has announced.

The Audit, Reporting and Governance Authority will have enhanced powers and be able to make direct changes to accounts, instead of applying to court.

The government said it wants new "strong" leadership to "change the culture" of the accounting sector.

The role of auditors in Carillion's collapse has been criticised by MPs.

KPMG, one of the UK's four largest accountancy firms, had handled Carillion's accounts since 1999 and signed off its figures in March 2017, four months before the firm issued its first profit warning.

MPs now want


to know how KPMG and other big four firms failed to spot warning signs at several British collapsed businesses in the last few years.

This resulted in the Competition and Markets Authority proposing a major shake-up of the industry, as well as the big four bosses' appearance in front of MPs on the Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) Committee in February.

The accountancy industry's watchdog has also come under fire for its handling of recent corporate collapses.

In November, the FRC's chief executive Stephen Haddrill announced that he would be stepping down at some point in 2019, pending the government's review of the council's remit and role.

In a widening probe, Milwaukee County prosecutors are pushing forward with their two-prong criminal investigation into campaign activity by county staffers for Governor-elect Scott Walker and questionable donations by a Walker supporter.

Sources say the case has gotten to the point that the Walker campaign recently brought in former U.S. Attorney Steve Biskupic, now with Michael Best & Friedrich. Walker will step down next week as Milwaukee County executive.

"As (convicted former alderman) Michael McGee said, this is a big amoeba," said one person familiar with the case. "It keeps growing."

Several other players in the John Doe investigation also have lawyered up. John Doe investigations typically are held as a secret fact-finding tool to determine whether a crime has been committed. Witnesses testify under oath before a judge - inthis case, retired Appeals Court Judge Neal Nettesheim of Waukesha.

Most interestingly, Tim Russell - the county housing administrator and a former Walker campaign aide - has retained Michael Maistelman, an election lawyer who has made a name for himself by representing the campaigns of prominent Democrats, such as Gov. Jim Doyle and U.S. Sen. Russ Feingold.

Investigators seized the computer and other material from Russell's county office earlier this year.

That came after another Walker employee, Darlene Wink, quit her job as his constituent services coordinator in May after admitting that she was frequently posting comments on Journal Sentinel stories and blogs while on the clock for the taxpayers and the county. Nearly all of her posts praised Walker or criticized his two opponents, former U.S. Rep. Mark Neumann, a


Republican, and Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, a Democrat.

Authorities took her work computer and executed a search warrant of her home as part of this investigation. Wink and Russell were close, having both worked on Operation Freedom, an annual military appreciation day held at the zoo.

Russell had confirmed that the Walker administration asked Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm to investigate what had happened to some money in 2007 for the event. Those familiar with the John Doe probe say Chisholm's office isn't actively pursing this matter.

Wink's lawyer, Christopher Wiesmueller, said Wednesday that he is in the dark about the probe. He said he believes his client is not guilty of campaign finance violations or misconduct in public office.

He said he contacted the district attorney's office last month tosee if his client would be charged or cleared.

"When I inquired after the election, they said they couldn't tell me anything," Wiesmueller said.

Biskupic did not return calls this week. Maistelman declined comment when reached Wednesday.

News about the investigation comes at an awkward time for Walker's team.

The Wauwatosa Republican is gearing up for his Jan. 3 inauguration. Walker also is struggling to fill his new administration, not having named a single cabinet secretary in the seven weeks since he was elected.

Jill Bader, spokeswoman for Walker's campaign, confirmed that Biskupic's firm was working for Walker's shop. But she made no mention of the John Doe investigation.

"The campaign contracts with a number of law firms to provide legal services," Bader said. "These have included both Michael Best & Friedrich and Patton


Boggs. The campaign cannot hire any counsel for the representation of any individual, only for compliance."

Milwaukee prosecutors also are conducting a criminal investigation of a railroad official who has conceded using company cash to underwrite his employees' campaign donations, something not permitted under state law.

William E. Gardner, president and chief executive officer of Wisconsin & Southern Railroad Co., told state regulators earlier this year that he used railroad receipts to reimburse workers who had given to Walker, whose campaign responded by returning more than $43,000 in donations to Gardner and a handful of his company workers.

The Assembly Democratic Campaign Committee also has forfeited $3,500 in donations from Gardner.

In Wisconsin, it's illegal to give corporate money to political candidates.

Gardner's lawyer, Robert Friebert, again refused to answer questions about his1 collided into the on-ramp wall."

Baseball cards are among the most widely collected memorabilia. Collectors seek both old cards, which are traded and which have been increasing in market value, and new cards to complete collections for each team for each season. Baseball cards have photographs of the player, as well as importance statistics and other information. Individual manufacturers of baseball cards also include trade dress and other identifying indicia, so that collectors can easily determine the source of the series from which any card originated.
In addition to baseball cards, other sports have similar cards, although collection and value have not reached the economic or numerical proportions of baseball cards. Other cards exist in areas of interest other than sports have not yet reached a significant market size. Nevertheless, growth in these areaswill depend upon the degree of inherent interest in the topic and also on the amount of marketing effort expended.
In addition to straightforward collecting of baseball cards and the like, persons young and old enjoy time spent with the cards, perhaps in using their imagination to select all time favorite teams or best statistics for individuals or teams, and engaging in imaginary trading and managing decisions an the like.
One such baseball card market in which ones imagination and even ones fantasies can be enjoyed is the children's market, in which an ordinary child who might be playing in age group baseball can fantasize about playing on a major league team. This fantasy or "playing", which many experts believe is desirable for intellectual growth, would be enhanced if a


[The Finnish nurse in international work - from leading positions to everyday nursing].
Finnish nurses worked abroad already in the 19th century, before nurse education had started in Finland. Reasons for going abroad were the desire to help people, to acquire education, knowledge and experience, to look for a job or to seek adventures or love. In the course of time the reasons have remained nearly the same. Many of the first matrons got their education abroad. On the other hand, Finnish nurses have voluntarily joined the Red Cross ambulances abroad from the last century until today. Study trips were popular already in the beginning of this century, and nowadays a time abroad or at least congress visits are a part of everyday life. Many Finnish nurses have heldprominent positions. The most remarkable among them is Sophie Mannerheim, who was President of the International Council of Nurses in 1922-1925. Missionary work in Africa and other developing countries has attracted believers, while others are employed by the World Health Organization.

REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION WITH REGARD TO JOURNEY LGISTICS' and TRANSPORT DCAMPRO INC.'S MOTIONS TO DISMISS (Document Nos. 25 and 31)

May 29, 2008
NEIMAN, United States Chief Magistrate Judge.
Barry Tabb ("Tabb"), the Vice President of Operations at the Olympia Ice Arena in Springfield, Massachusetts, was injured on January 20, 2004, when several glass panels he was helping unload from a delivery truck fell on him. He and his wife, Ann Tabb (together "Plaintiffs"), filed this torta "contribution" cross-claim, see Mass. Gen. L. ch. 231 B, against the other three defendants. On October 30, 2007, Journey Logistics answered that cross-claim and filed its own contribution cross-claim against Laurier Glass. On November 9, 2007, Journey Logistics amended its crossclaim against Laurier Glass in order to add two "indemnification" causes of action, both of which were also directed solely at Laurier Glass.
Meanwhile, on October 30, 2007, Transport filed its motion to dismiss Plaintiffs' amended complaint in which it argues that the claim against it is barred by Massachusetts' three-year statute of limitations for tort claims and that Plaintiffs' service of process was deficient. Plaintiffs tendered their opposition memorandum on November 9, 2007, and on November 19, 2007, Transport submitted its reply. At oral argument, the court


gave the parties an opportunity to file additional memoranda of law on the service of process issue; that briefing was completed by December 12, 2007.
In the interim, on October 18, 2007, Journey Logistics filed its own motion to dismiss in which it alleges that the court lacks personal jurisdiction over it. Plaintiffs countered that motion with an opposition brief that included their own motion for limited discovery, which request the court allowed on November 27, 2007. Oral argument was heard on Journey Logistics' motion to dismiss at the end of the limited discovery period on February 28, 2008. It became clear at the time, however, that Plaintiffs had not supplemented their opposition to Journey Logistics' motion. Accordingly, the court gave Plaintiffs yet another opportunity to file a supplementalvoluntarily or intentionally directed its activities at Massachusetts such that it could reasonably foresee appearing in court here. As supported by the undisputed facts, Journey Logistics simply brokered shipments for other parties in Canada and did not at any time purposefully avail itself of the privilege of conducting activities in this forum. It is also undisputed that Journey Logistics has never maintained an office, business address, employees, agents or telephone numbers in Massachusetts, owned or leased real property in Massachusetts, filed a corporate tax return in Massachusetts, or advertised in Massachusetts through local newspapers, magazines, radio or television.
Finally, as to the third prong of the analysis, the court agrees with Journey Logistics that making it defend claims in Massachusetts would be unreasonable in light of the "Gestalt" factors.

But Socrates Sculpture Park plans to continue hosting produce vendors on weekends, at least for the first few weeks of the season.

Instead of going through GrowNYC, the park will be partnering directly with farmers for a pilot market that will take place on Saturdays starting in mid-June, according to Spokeswoman Katie Denny Horowitz.

It's expected to include some of the same vendors as the former greenmarket, she said.

Meanwhile, two other GrowNYC farmers markets will return to other sites in the neighborhood this season, according to Crawford.

They include the Astoria Greenmarket on 14th Street between 31st Avenue and 31st Road, which takes place on Wednesdays and will return on July 5.

I had arrived home early in the evening after being gone for the last three months on business in New York. Mina was expecting me to be home after midnight or later. Mina arrives home about 9:30 in the evening, she just come home from evening out with friends, all the lights are off in the house, she can see flickering lights playing across the walls, casting eerie and flickering shadows throughout the house. She parks her car in the garage and walks to the side door, she notices that the flickering light is coming from lots and lots of candles in the foyer. She walks into the foyer, notces a small path of rose petals leading from the front door to the hallway leading to the bathroomand ends at the start of the hall way, hanging from a string from the ceiling is a note, it reads, " Take off all your clothes, fold them and stack them in a neat pile, take the blindfold and put it on," and you see a blindfold behind the note.

After you place the blind fold on, you wait, the anticipation making your skin to start to heat up, wanting something. From behind, she feels my hands slowly caressing her outer thighs, just below her hips,my finger tips playing on her soft supple skin as the temperature jumps at the touch of my finger tips.... they make small lines up her ribcage and stopping just parallel with her breasts just under her arms. I apply pressure to her


guiding her down the hall way, leading her somewhere, but the blind fold shutting out all light, she is unsure of where we are. As we reach the end of the hall, she can feel the rose petals again under her feet, their soft moist petals sending sensations up her body... she remember's the small turn we took would lead us into the bedroom but we do not stop.

I guide her through the room and to the master bathroom, she can smell roses. I guide her over to the garden tub, " Step up, step up and into the water please " and as her left leg steps up and moves over the edge of the tub, the tips of her toes pushing something out of the way,what though, then the sensation returns, more rose petals, hundreds floating along the surface of the water, then as her feet slip deeper into the almost intolerable heat that now engulfs her legs, she let's out a small moan " ooooohhhhhh " her right foot now moves up and over the edge of the tub, penetrating the barrier of rose petals and is submerged into the all encompassing heat of the water, something different though, it feels oily, like something has been added to the water.

I hold her steady under my arms as I lower her body into the water. As herhips start their decent into the oil and scented water, rose petals play along the soft skin of her inner thighs, sending waves of sensual sensations through


her body, up her thighs to her moistening velvet slit. As her soft folds of heated and damp flesh touch the surface of water. She feels many rose petals playing along the folds of flesh, causing a small moan to escape your lips..." oooohhhhh...mmmmm." The moan causing a smile to play across my unseen face, and to send waves of pleasure through my body, causing my own temperature to rise and my cock to harden.

Then the water is up to her stomach, past her navel, and to the middle of her rib cage. The water is up to her breasts, the rose petals now playing across the bottom of her breasts teasing her nipples to hardness, making them raise. Yearning to be touched, pinched, sucked on. As Minaslips deeper into the water, the rose petals now touch her nipples, only causing the pleasurable sensations to race through her body again. My hands now resting on her shoulders softly caressing and rubbing the stiffness from them. I pull her hair up and start my massaging on her lower neck, working the tension out of it. Her body now totally immersed up to her neck, her knees just barely out of the water, and my hand moves from her neck, down the front of her body, each hand moving to the outside of her breasts, down her ribs, along her stomach, each hand moving down opposite thighs, down past her knees, and down her soft and supple calves, and down to her feet.

My arms are now submersed


to my elbows, my hands massaging and gently washing her right foot, cleaning the tops and bottoms of her feet, slowly massaging each one, taking my time to get the days worries and troubles. I then work up to her left calf, washing, caressing and massaging, our breathing is slow, sensual breaths, each one intoxicated by the smells of the rose petals and the fragrant smell of the oil in the water. I move my washing and gentle caress up her leg, up to her thigh, and stop just below her warm folds of velvety flesh, my hands leave her body and go to her other calf, starting the washing and caressing all over again. As my hands move through the water, caressing and washing her legs theymove up past her knee, up her thigh, and to within inches of her supple folds of her pussy, she sinks lower into the water and raises her hips in hopes to get my hands to travel further up her body, " no sweets, not like that, " my hot moist and lusty voice whispers in her ear.

My hands now move up to the tops of her thighs and up to her stomach, washing and caressing as they move. I apply sensual pressure to help wash, and my hands slowly cover each inch of her body..... caressing it, causing waves of pleasure to flow through every inch of her body. My hands make their way higher, to her ribs, and then around her breasts to her upper chest


that is only half submerged. My hands slowly wash this part of her body, tickling it, warming it, causing her air exposed flesh to have goose bumps. I move my hands up and over her shoulders, urging her to set up and slide forward as she senses my body move from the middle of the tub to the back of the tub where her back was now resting. As she slides forward, she hears a soft moan " aaaahhhh " escape my mouth as I step into the water behind her. I slide deeper into the water, my legs now on the outside of her legs, her soft legs caressing mine, and my hard cock brushes against the bottom of her back.

I pull her back so she isnow leaning on me, my hands moving through the water to her sides, and then down to her hips, the tops of her thighs, and then to her inner thighs, and rest there for a few moments. My left hand moves up her inner thigh, to her soft supple folds of pleasure, up the left side of those folds, then brushing against her hard clit, brushing against it, but not staying there. My left hand continues its path up the supple skin above her clit, up her stomach, and up to her right breast, my hand now completely encompassing it, my palm resting on her nipple as my fingers play on the outer edges of her breast. My fingers then come together to her nipple, taking it between


my finger and thumb to twist and pull slightly on it. My right hand that was dormant on her inner right thigh begins to move, further down her thigh almost to the bottom of it, then makes a painfully slow path up her thigh. My mouth now less than an inch from her earlobe, my hot breath falling on the soft supple skin just beneath her ear, my breath slow, sensual, and my cock beginning to press slightly harder against the curve that joins her ass and lower back.

My right hand now painfully close to her velvet folds, moving closer to your clit, two fingers penetrate her lips, but not her pussy. They play within the folds, but only play there, not penetrating her. They then move upfrom her lips to rest on her clit, parting the soft flesh that hides it, parting the flesh to expose the temple of pleasure that yearns to be touched. My breath now closer to her ear, closer till my lips play on her ear lobe, tongue reaching out to lick her neck, my lips then sucking on her ear lobe as my tongue leaves her neck. My left hand continues to massage, twist, and pull on her right nipple, causing it to harden even more, then leaving it to move across her flesh to her left breast and nipple. Fingers playing across the top of her breast till my fingers finally slightly pinch the nipple, twisting it slightly, pulling a little more.

My two fingers have parted the supple


and soft flesh to expose her pussy, parting it more so another finger can slide down, pressing on it gently, pushing on it, sliding against it, making it raise further, its yearning to be touched clearly evident in her slow breaths and slowly swaying hips, my fingers now moving across the top of her clit slowly, from the top to the bottom, from side to side, slowly moving teasingly slowly. My mouth now moves from her earlobe to her neck, down the side to her shoulder, then down to her collar bone, where I start to kiss and lick in the small curve of her neck that meets her upper chest, my left hand continuing to gently, teasingly twist and pull on her left nipple, and after itgrows hard moves back to her right breast and nipple, twisting and pulling on it to get it back to full hardness.

My kissing and licking and sucking on her lower neck increases the movements of my right hand. Two fingers now lay directly on top of her clit, pressing down on it, and starts to vibrate from side to side, the rhythm painfully slow. A soft moan " aaaaahhhh..mmmm " escaping her lips as my fingers slide lower, almost into the soft folds of her pussy lips...... my sucking on her neck turns to gentle and playful nibbles. My left hand continues to knead her right breast, my fingers twisting and gently pulling on her nipple. My right hand allows my fingers to slide down till the base


and wetness that is her. I feel her hips start to buck, shake, and a small smile plays across my lips as they kiss and lick the sensitive curvature of the base of her neck, approaching her breasts. As my right hand vibrates enough to cause the water to ripple and makes small splashes and the rose petals ride the small waves, my chest feels her back arch slightly as her hips start to buck, sporadically convulse and cause more waves within the tub.

My finger vibrates against her clit and inside the wet folds of herr velvet slit faster and harder causing her convulsions of pure ecstasy to increase. Her body spasms and her back buckles forward then slams back down onto my chest, her legs squeeze together,clasping around my hand. Her ass cheeks clench and her feet push hard against the white porcelain of the tub as she rides the rose covered waves of pleasure. The only thing she notices is my left hand leaves her breasts and traces down her side to her hips, and then down to her left ass cheek. As the last convulsions of pleasure rock her body, my fingers leave her soft folds and clit, tracing a line over her thigh and down to her right ass cheek. Then she feels why they have left their proper places, my cock is throbbing against the small of her back, pushing against her, from the top of her ass up her back.

My breath is falling on her neck and in a


nipples stiffen, yearning to be touched. My lips now back on her neck, kissing and caressing her neck as my tongue slowly lashes out to lick her neck. My left hand now allowing her body to seep further down into the water, her hot pussy meeting the mushroom head of my cock, and then the pressure is pushing against her as she slowly gently slides down onto my cock, engulfing it completely. With the blind fold covering her eyes, her hands go out, searching for the edges of the tub, and after finding them she holds on, slowly moving up and down, bobbing on my cock. The movement of her ride causing waves to splash out of the tub, rose petals riding the waves leave the tub aspace, sending waves of pleasure through both of our bodies. As her body begins to writhe in pleasure, my own body begins to buck and convulse. My ass cheeks tighten and my feet press against the opposite side of the tub as I thrust in a very spasmodic way.

As my cum flows into her, filling her, her own body uncontrollable convulsions ease, allowing her to lean back, the back of her head resting on my shoulder, her cheek resting on the side of my head. I turn my head and slowly kiss her cheek. " Baby, that has to be some of the most intense fucking we have experienced in a long time." My voice husky, breathy, and still lust filled. My hands move down to gently grasp


her hips and slowly slide her off my now softening cock, a void, loss, enters her emotions. Her blindfold is still covering her eyes and I stand up in the tub. My voice, filled with total devotion, carries to her ears, stay there for a moment as I dry off, guiding her stand, and after she does I guide her out of the tub, one foot then the other. Her body sweet smelling, a combination of rose petals and scented oil, and dripping wet.

This is her night, hers alone. After a few minutes I reach down and take your hand in mine. A very large and soft towel now gently is laid on your shoulders, my hands moving it very slowly across them, patting and rubbing the moisturefrom her neck and shoulders. I slowly dry her back, down to her waist, then slowly turn her around so if she was not blindfolded, she would be looking into my eyes. The blindfold allows her to see nothing, only her other senses allow her to know what is going on, where I am, where we are. My hands, holding the towel start at her shoulders and slowly and gently pat and rub her body, removing all the water from where the towel touches. It moves slowly down her body, taking extra time on her breast, teasingly rubbing her nipples, getting them slightly hard before moving down.

My towel wrapped hands move down her side, across her stomach, down to her hips and stops. The towel leaves her body


for just a moment, then touches it again at her left ankle. It slowly moves up her left calf, to her left knee, and half way up her left thigh. My breath now hot and moist touches her stomach, nearing her belly button as the towel once again leaves her body. After a brief moment, my breath draws closer, becomes warmer and more wet. She feels it as it intensifies, and then my lips touch her stomach, just below her belly button, a very soft, very light kiss that seems to linger for the longest of moments.

As the towel touches her body again, it starts at her right ankle, and painfully slow moves up to her knee, stopping there as I softly give her stomach another kiss. Myhands then move the towel up to the middle of her thigh, stopping there, leaving half of each thigh and her wet pussy still soaking wet. The towel leaves her body one more time, and her senses tell her that I am stepping away from her, not allowing her to move or to know where I am. A very light, very gentle touch of the towel brushes against the top of her ass, letting her know I am behind her. My hands now firmly grasp her ass and squeeze it, teasing her body with sensations of pleasure. My hands then move in different directions. One hand moves around to her right hip, the other one down to her left inner thigh. Each one causing different sensations coursing through


her body. My right hand moves to the front of her stomach and then down to her supple flesh just above her clit.

My left hand moves down her ass cheek, moving slowly down to her inner thighs, lower towards her knees, and then moving back up her inner thighs. Moving slowly, very slowly up to her velvety folds of her pussy. I use the towel to playfully rub against her slit and now aroused clit. A very soft moan escapes her mouth " oooohhhh..mmmm," as the towel brushes against her clit. With her body completely dry now, I let the towel drop to the floor, and my hands caress her inner thighs, up the back of her thighs, and up her ass cheeks. They then move up thesmall of her back, sending waves of pleasure through her body and my hands finally come to rest on her shoulders.

With my hands on her shoulders I slowly guide her back to the bedroom, careful not to let her trip over anything. As we enter the bedroom, her sense of smell is almost overwhelmed by the scented candles and incense burning in the room. It is not overpowering but pleasant and comforting. I guide her to the bed, her legs bumping against the edge at the foot of the bed. I slowly help her lie down, and she feels the satin sheets are pulled back, and she feels hundreds of soft rose petals cover every inch of the bed. Their soft and supple texture sending waves of never


before felt sensations crashing like waves through her body, arousing her to new heights. I guide her body up the bed so that her head can rest on the pillow, and her body now laying completely on rose petals. I guide her arms up over her head and to each side.

I guide her right arm up to the headboard, and then to be surrounded by something soft, totally encompassing her wrist. She hears a few small clicks and she realizes that she is now handcuffed to the head board. My hand slowly moves down her arm and across her chest, lingering long enough to tease her senses before traveling up her opposite arm, to her wrist and to restrain it in another set of handcuffs, now having nomovement in her arms. I gently kneel beside her body, her hands close gripping the head board and an unseen smile plays across my lips. As she lays there she can feel me moving on the bed, subtle movements, as if searching for something on the bedside table. The uncertainty only fuelling the inner fire that is starting to burn within, pushing her to a painfully pleasant place. The next sensation she feels is something light, soft and ticklish, yes, a feather, playfully crossing her flesh, making small patterns on her stomach.Then moving slowly down her hips, down her thighs to her knees, and then back up her thighs to her stomach.

The feather now plays up her stomach, up further to glide between her breasts, the touch of


it sending thrilling chills through her body. She archs her chest up to get a more firm touch from the feather, but it moves with her arching and only glides gently up to her neck, then off to the right side, and down to her right breast. Painfully slowly making circles across her breast, till the circles are around her nipples. Her now hard nipples stand out, wanting to be touched, played with, sucked on, but not yet. As the feather leaves her right breast, a low and long moan escapes her lips. " mmmmmmm..ooooo

hhhhhh..aaaaaahhhhhh...mmmmmmmm."

The feather now moves across her upper chest, moving slowly over to her left breast, repeating the pattern. Large circles, growing smaller till they play extremely close to her left nipple, but never touchingit. The feather continues making small circles for a brief moment, then makes a line up her left breast and to the middle of her chest, then slowly descends towards her stomach. As it is approaching her navel, she feels my hot breath falling on her left breast, directly above her nipple. My desire to touch her is almost unbearable for me. Pleasure at seeing her like this is driving me mad with pleasure. My cock is hard and throbbing with small drops of pre-cum dripping from it's mushroom head. Oh my, she is so beautiful and hot. I wish I could take her now, now would be great for me, but this night is for her pleasure for her alone, the thoughts racing through my mind as


my tongue slowly lashes out to her left nipple.

Spit on the tip of my tongue drip to her nipple as an animal like moan escapes her lips. " aaaaahhhh..uuuuuhhhh," I then use my tongue to slowly flick and lightly lick on her hardening nipple. My wet breath now falling directly on her left breast as the feather traces invisible lines of pleasure down to the supple pink skin above her clit. Stopping there, it makes small indistinct patterns across her flesh. As my tongue continues to play on her left nipple the feather is removed from her soft and supple skin, only to be replaced by my fingers. Gently and slowly playing across her skin, never going lower than that area of flesh. She thrusts her hips upin hopes of my fingers brushing against her clit, but each thrust only causes my fingers to lift from her skin to move back down seconds later.

My tongue makes a long, wet line from her left nipple down her breast, and up her right breast to her right nipple. My tongue now makes very small circles around her nipple, enticing it towards my hot steamy breath. Then in a very slow minute, my tongue briefly rubs across it, covering it, embracing. Another small moan escapes her lips,

" oooohhhh " and my right hand slides down her soft flesh, searching for her clit. With the smallest and briefest of touches, I rub her clit causing a small gasp to escape her lips.

" uuuuhhhh." I take that cue, and gently


but rapidly vibrate on her clit, causing her hips to thrust into the air, her body to convulse, and shiver with pleasure.

Her breathing comes in irregular gasps as her convulsions reach their peek and start to subside. Her body aches with pleasure as I start to lick and kiss from her breasts down to her stomach and my hand leaves her clit to make its way down her left thigh, down to her knee. Grasping it firmly I pull it towards me, opening her legs and allowing me better access to her pussy that we both want me to pay attention to. My hand then moves back up her leg, across her lower stomach, and over to her other leg and down to the knee. Pushing it furtheraway to make her now fully spread eagle. I then remove a pillow from the top of the bed, and move my body into another position, between her legs, my kissing and licking still playing on her lower stomach.

I use both my hands to grab her hips, and lift them into the air. I put the pillow under her ass to keep her hips raised into the air and allow me to fully pleasure her body. My right hand now resting on the top of her left thigh, and my right hand resting on the bottom of her left thigh, near your ass cheek. My mouth starts to kiss and lick her left inner thigh, just above her knee, and makes very slow progress up her leg. Spending


swells, the pressure on it's surface increases, and the vibration begins to quicken as well. Her hips thrust down onto the pillow, increasing the pressure on her swollen mound of pleasure to increase, a moan of pleasure escaping " OHHH! UUHHH! UUHHH! MMMMMMMmmmmm " she grinds down on my fingers.

As the moan escapes her lips, the vibration on my fingers quickens, quickens to an almost dizzying pace, making her to buck and heave. The pleasure in side her builds with each second, her vision of blackness contorting and becomes a searing white hot flame. Her body again convulses with pure pleasure, the waves of pleasure racks her body harder and longer. Her body contorts with ecstasy, her moans harder and longer, turning into long screams of absolute delightass up and down on my shaft, while also moving a hand to her pussy to finger herself. I clawed my nails down her back and felt her cum again as the long red claw marks appeared down her silky flesh.

Finally we were both spent. Mina fell back on top of me, never pulling my cock from her ass. We lay there panting against each other as our bodies finally started to relax. Her ass was still super tight and keeping a firm grasp of my cock. One of my hands reached around her and found her wet pussy lips and I gently teased and massaged at them while my other hand reached around and found one of her hard erect nipples. The rose petals we lay on


2014, the team was in a rut. They were a team that was renowned for their talent as their lineup was stacked. It had: Nicolai “dev1ce” Reedtz, Peter “Dupreeh” Rothmann, Andreas “Xyp9x” Hojsleth, Rene “cajunb” Borg, and Henrik “FeTiSh” Christensen as the in-game leader. FeTiSh could not get the team to win on the T-side and the team had problems underperforming in big game scenarios. Because of that, Dignitas decided to go with Karrigan as their in-game leader.

Karrigan joined on December 9th, 2014. At their first event together in January 25th, at MLG X games Aspen they got 3rd place as they lost to LDLC in the semifinals. From that point on, Dignitas which later became TSM, improved throughout 2015 as it rose up in stature. They startedto get the wins on the board, consistently placed highly, and were one of the few teams to have a good matchup against the greatest lineup of the era (and all-time) in Fnatic.

This level of form started to dip as the team went into 2016. The team eventually tried to change things as they removed Cajunb from the lineup and got Markus “Kjaerbye” Kjaerbye in his place. The move didn’t help as the inherent problem of the team was that they no longer had the same vision. After they hit their slump at the beginning of 2016, the team had a division of views as to how to go forward. They were at an impasse. Karrigan wanted to play more explosive and free form, whereas dev1ce and Danny


“kioShiMa’ Fiey, and Havard “rain” Nygaard.

While each individual player was good, no one had a viable solution on how it was all supposed to fit together. Because of the lack of synergy, the results of the team were a joke. They had done nothing of note relative to the top level of Counter-Strike for the entirety of 2016. It was clear that they needed a leader, but there was none on the market until Karrigan got benched.

On October 19th, 2016 Karrigan officially joined the team. However unlike his time with the Danes, there was no break. Karrigan had over a month to figure things out when he first joined the lineup. For this team, there first official match was at ELeague on October 21st. Three days after hehad joined the team.

Without any practice, armed with only the knowledge of what he saw in the game and what he knew of the players, Karrigan delivered. He got the team up and running to a strong level, they qualified out of Group A, and Karrigan had delivered FaZe’s best result in all of 2016 in three days. He also had the foresight and ability to recognize and balance the team roster when he realized it wasn’t quite working. At the time, jkaem was considered a far better player than kioShiMa, but he realized that kioShiMa had the potential to be a better role player in the system he was building.

FaZe quickly became a top 10 team in the world and traveled from event to event without stopping.


“GuardiaN” Kovacs and Olof “olofmeister” Kajbjer. This lineup started a little bit slower than the others. Olofmeister was the last to join as he came onto the team on August 20th. Their first match was August 30th at DreamHack Masters Malmo. They ended up losing to the group stages to a still strong Gambit and an NiP in rare form.

Part of the loss came from karrigan’s slight misread of their own map pool where he overextended in believing that they could play the entire map pool. However they were quick to adjust. Their next event came right on the heels of this one at ESL New York on September 17th, 2017. At that event they dominated the world as they crushed everyone there.

The most miraculous part was thatthe team came together in a way you couldn’t foresee. While each of the names on paper were incredible, it was hard to imagine how the team was going to function. Olofmeister and GuardiaN were stars of their team. Rain and NiKo were stars of this team. Karrigan, however saw the shifting parts and how they could align. Olofmeister became a great role player for the squad and Rain became the impactful entry fragger and space creator that enabled the team. He not only had the skill, but he had the mindset for it.

These two roles shifts were completely unexpected because it went against the entire career of both players up to that point, but Karrigan on some level understood and realized the potential that was within the


lineup. This team could have become something legendary, but a few things got in their way. SK rose up to challenge them and consistently beat them. On top of that, the team consistently broke apart in high pressure matches down the line at their biggest events. IEM Oakland 2017, ELeague Boston 2018, and IEM World Championship 2018 are the three biggest to come to mind.

After that, Olofmeister went on hiatus for personal reasons and FaZe were forced to use stand-ins. Even then the team was successful as they were able to win IEM Sydney against the dominant Astralis and get good placings. However they still suffered a bad loss to the hands of BIG at ESL One Cologne 2018.

That was the end of the stand-in period at whichpoint Olofmeister came back. From that point onward, FaZe has struggled. They lost to Mouz at DreamHack Masters Stockholm in the quarterfinals and were nearly wiped out in the Legends Stage of FACEIT Major London. At which point NiKo took control of the leadership and they made it to the playoffs where they lost to Astralis.

Soon after, Karrigan became a support player in the squad and they were able to still get some good results as they won EPICENTER 2018 and got top four at IEM Chicago. At IEM Chicago, they even won a bo3 series against Astralis. However, something was inevitably going to break as the team was stuck in no-man’s land. They either needed to get a new in-game leader or all-in on NiKo as the

Photo catches McCain celebrating birthday with indicted con man David Edwards and Muriel Kane

Published: Thursday September 11, 2008

Print This Email This Although John McCain has made condemning the influence of lobbyists in Washington one of his signature issues, his own campaign is largely run by high-powered lobbyists, including his campaign manager, Rick Davis.

The connection with Davis appears to be behind McCain's having spent his 70th birthday partying on the yacht of Italian conman Raffaello Follieri -- who hired Davis's business partner to lobby for him just a few months later -- along with Follieri's then-girlfriend, actress Anne Hathaway. The date was Aug. 29, 2006 and the place was Montenegro, where McCain had traveled with a delegation of US senators to celebrate that nation's independence.

Although the meeting has beenreported previously, the Nation has now confirmed it with a photo of John McCain preparing to board Follieri's yacht. Rachel Maddow offered an exclusive preview of the photograph on her new MSNBC program on Wednesday, noting that it "appears to undercut the well-crafted, focus group-tested image of John McCain being pushed on the American people."

Follieri, who was arrested in April for allegedly passing a bad check, has just pleaded guilty to eight counts of wire fraud and five counts of money-laundering resulting from a scheme in which he obtained millions of dollars in investments by claiming to have connections in the Vatican.

"The McCain campaign has confirmed the senator's encounter with the conman guy," Maddow noted, "telling the New York Daily News it was 'entirely social' and 'nothing came


of it.'" She went on to wonder how come, in that case, "it is Barack Obama who is the celebrity, when McCain is the one spending his birthday on a yacht in the Adriatic Sea with a faboo movie star and her conman Italian boyfriend?"

Maddow was then joined by Ari Berman, co-author of the Nation article on the McCain-Follieri encounter, who suggested that McCain "has a little bit of a celebrity fetish."

Maddow asked, "Do we know why [Follieri] hired Rick Davis's lobbying firm and whether or not that connection had anything to do with John McCain?"

Berman replied that Follieri, who had already tight connections with some of Bill Clinton's aides and financial supporters, "wanted to do the same thing with McCain. He was playing both sides. ... Wethink he was [in Montenegro] because McCain was there, and what happened after that yacht party with McCain is, he ended up sending Rick Davis business information."

McCain had marked his previous birthday, Aug. 29, 2005, by celebrating with President Bush as Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans. His 71st birthday in 2007 was spent attempting to raise cash for his then-faltering presidential campaign, with his wife Cindy writing in a fundraising appeal, "Birthdays are always special occasions in the McCain family."

Appeal Court ready to judge BN66 contractors

Thousands of IT contractors will on Monday learn whether the High Court was right to say HM Revenue & Customs could levy millions in income tax on them retrospectively without infringing their human rights.

Then, Justice Parker headed off an appeal, disappointing Robert Huitson, the IT contractor who challenged the backdating after he, like thousands of other contractors, was caught by S58 for using a tax mitigation scheme.

Based in the Isle of Man, the scheme provider Montpelier responded to the High Court’s backing of the rule, also known as BN66, by approaching the Court of Appeal, where a two-day hearing was granted and held in November.

But the three senior judges presiding also heard an appeal from PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), the professional services firm,

Set to become the BBC's primary digital entertainment destination

The BBC has announced its vision for a new iPlayer, which is set to increase the amount of shows, add new features and offer up new ways to watch BBC TV shows.

At an event with TechRadar in attendance, the BBC revealed that the next generation of iPlayer is set to become the "BBC's primary digital entertainment destination" with the Beeb making it easier than ever before to watch new things on the iPlayer.

The list of new features is pretty extensive, with the BBC putting more of a focus on original programming through the iPlayer, as well as increasing the on-demand window for many of its shows – from the current seven days to


recommendations and users will be able to create their own evening schedules thanks to more shows hitting the iPlayer.

There is a bit of a wait for the new iPlayer – the BBC has said that it will relaunch sometime in the first half of 2014.

Because of the missing mint mark, this coin is now worth hundreds of times more than its original face value.

The 1982 No P Dimes were originally discovered on December of 1982. Most of the coins were initially found in Sandusky Ohio, where approximately 8,000 to 10,000 coins were reportedly found. Many more 1982 No P Dimes were also handed out at the local Cedar Point Amusement Park as change, with additional examples also being found in circulation around the same area. Walter Placzwkis, Andrew Macdonald and Lane Durkee were some of three first individuals who were credited with discovering the coins.

Coincidentally, there


the coins were first being discovered and how some of the local dealers were offering him the coins in large quantities, including the local bank tellers who were also offering the coins to him by the roll. Clyde also mentioned that he was only able to place 47 to 48 sharply struck 1982 No P Dimes in a roll, while being able to place 50 or 51 of the weakly struck varieties inside a roll, since the sharply struck examples were thicker than the weaker struck varieties.

Clyde also mentions that he never found a single example of the 1982 No P Dime in circulation, even though he was in the area where most of the coins were being found. Nonetheless, he is very happy that he had themissing certain details. The 1982 No P Dime is just one prime example of many other coins which command huge premiums in the coin market because it lacks certain details.

Finally, the 1982 No P Dime is a special coin in numismatics, since it was the first and still remains as the only business strike coin which left the U.S. Mint, without containing its intended mint mark on the obverse side of the coin.


exponents, Posidonious, and notes that it takes a largely critical attitude towards the Iron Age societies of Western Europe that emphasizes their "barbaric" qualities. The second of these two groups is termed the "Alexandrian" group, being centred on the scholastic traditions of Alexandria in Egypt; she notes that it took a more sympathetic and idealized attitude towards these foreign peoples. Piggott drew parallels between this categorisation and the ideas of "hard primitivism" and "soft primitivism" identified by historians of ideas A.O. Lovejoy and Franz Boas.

One school of thought within historical scholarship has suggested that all of these accounts are inherently unreliable, and might be entirely fictional. They have suggested that the idea of the druid might have been a fiction created by Classical writers to reinforce the ideabe a barbaric and savage priesthood who performed human sacrifices. This view was largely supported by another archaeologist, Anne Ross, author of Pagan Celtic Britain (1967) and The Life and Death of a Druid Prince (1989), although she believed that they were essentially tribal priests, having more in common with the shamans of tribal societies than with the classical philosophers. Ross' views were largely accepted by two other prominent archaeologists to write on the subject, Miranda Aldhouse-Green — author of The Gods of the Celts (1986), Exploring the World of the Druids (1997) and Caesar's Druids: Story of an Ancient Priesthood (2010) — and Barry Cunliffe, author of Iron Age Communities in Britain (1991) and The Ancient Celts (1997).

When I spoke with Robert George, he praised Leon Kass, the former chairman of the President's Council, together with William Hurlbut, as the driving intellectual force against embryo-killing and in favor of finding alternative methods of obtaining pluripotent stem cells. "All along," George reports, "it was Dr. Kass who said that reprogramming methods would, if pursued vigorously, enable us to realize the full benefits of stem cell science while respecting human dignity."

George downplays his own role in shaping the president's thinking. After Congress passed a bill funding embryo-destructive stem cell research, Bush sought counsel. His approval ratings were in the cellar, and the general public largely supported the bill. Shortly before announcing his response


to the legislation, the president invited George and Grompe to the Oval Office to discuss it with him. George presented the scientific and philosophical case for respecting the human embryo, while Grompe assured the president that alternatives such as reprogramming, if given time, would win the day. The president agreed and announced his veto. He was right.

And Congress was wrong. Considering the realities of Washington, it is no surprise that the pro-embryo-destruction forces in the House of Representatives actually teamed up to defeat a bill that would have funded research on reprogramming, which they dismissed as a distraction. President Bush then issued another executive order, this one instructing the National Institutes of Health to promote reprogramming research. As it turns out, the breakthrough Thomson study was partially fundedMonday, May 14, 2018

Immediate Dead by Blue Cole

I love the premise of this story: Young cop gets transferred Homicide and is paired with the notorious detective nicknamed The Reaper, who has closed out far more cases than everyone else. His secret (and it is a secret from everyone he works with) is that he's able to converse with the recently dead. His prime witness is the person just knocked off. Pretty cool, huh? But even his plucky, organized, and smart new partner doesn't know his secret. Will his surly introverted nature run her off, or will they go on to become a team made in heaven (or hell, depending on how you view things)? And remember, she's plucky, organized, and smart, and intent on finding out what's driving


him.

This was my first Blue Cole book, and an early one of his. The premise, as I said, wowed me. I'm looking forward to following the characters, and also watching the author evolve in his craft. Also, it was fun to see characters named after folks Blue and I both know through the ever wonderful JordanCon, a yearly fantasy con dedicated to the memory of Robert Jordan, which is fast turning into a celebration of fantasy literature and art, while remaining a heck of a good time.

The DNC has said that if more than 10 candidates qualified, it would hold a second debate on Sept. 13.

Effectively cutting out half of the field, the third debate will feature many of the primary’s front runners facing each other on national television for the first time: Former Vice President Biden, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, California Sen. Kamala Harris and South Bend, Ind. Mayor Pete Buttigieg will all appear on the stage together.

In a separate court filing Friday, prosecutors for the special counsel provided evidence that former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort repeatedly lied to investigators — including about his businesses connections in Russia and Ukraine — after agreeing to cooperate with the probe.

Cohen has been selective about his cooperation

Cohen has cooperated more fully with the special counsel than he has with the investigation in the Southern District of New York. The different levels of cooperation in each case, laid bare in the court filings Friday, provide the clearest picture yet of how Cohen chose to protect himself over the president — a decision that may have helped him but potentially2016 campaign.

Prosecutors also said Cohen acknowledged talking with Trump about setting up a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin during the United Nations General Assembly in the fall of 2015. Special counsel prosecutors said Cohen had made “misleading statements” in the past, including during a radio interview, about Trump’s involvement in planning a meeting with Putin on the sidelines of the UN event. But the special counsel prosecutors said Cohen told them he talked with Trump about “contacting the Russian government” to see
