Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (otherwise called Star Wars: Episode IX – The Rise of Skywalker) is a forthcoming American epic space drama movie created, co-composed, and coordinated by J. J. Abrams. It will be the third portion of the Star Wars continuation set of three, after The Force Awakens (2015) and The Last Jedi (2017), and the last scene of the nine-section "Skywalker saga".[a] The film is being created by Lucasfilm and Bad Robot Productions, and will be appropriated by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. Its troupe cast incorporates Carrie Fisher,[b] Mark Hamill, Adam Driver, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Anthony Daniels, Naomi Ackie, Domhnall Gleeson, Richard E. Award, Lupita Nyong'o, Keri Russell, Joonas Suotamo, Kelly Marie Tran, Ian McDiarmid, and Billy Dee Williams.
The Rise of Skywalker will see the Resistance face the First Order again, and the finish of the antiquated clash between the Jedi and the Sith. Head photography started in August 2018 at Pinewood Studios in England, and enclosed by February 2019. The film is planned to be discharged in the United States on December 20, 2019.Carrie Fisher[1] as Leia Organa, the Force-touchy driving general of the Resistance and Luke's sister. Fisher, who passed on in late 2016, will show up using unreleased film from The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi.[4][8]
Imprint Hamill[1] as Luke Skywalker, the last Jedi Master, who got one with the Force in The Last Jedi[9]
Adam Driver as Kylo Ren, the Supreme Leader of the First Order in the wake of ousting Snoke[10] and ace of the Knights of Ren.[6] Born Ben Solo, he is the child of Leia Organa and Han Solo, the nephew of Luke Skywalker, and grandson of Darth Vader.
Daisy Ridley as Rey,[10] a vagrant from Jakku and an individual from the Resistance. She is the last known Jedi and disciple of Luke Skywalker.[6]
John Boyega as Finn,[10] an individual from the Resistance and a previous stormtrooper who absconded from the First Order
Oscar Isaac as Poe Dameron,[10] a high-positioning X-wing military pilot and leader of the Resistance
Anthony Daniels[1] as C-3PO, a humanoid convention droid in the administration of General Leia Organa. Daniels is the main on-screen character to have showed up in the entirety of the roundabout movies in the series.[11]
Naomi Ackie as Jannah,[12] a partner of the Resistance
Domhnall Gleeson[1] as General Hux, the First Order's second-in-direction
Richard E. Grant[1] as Allegiant General Pryde, a high-positioning general in the First Order[13]
Lupita Nyong'o[1] as Maz Kanata, a previous space privateer and partner of the Resistance
Keri Russell as Zorii Bliss,[14][15] a "criminal and old companion of Poe's"[16]
Joonas Suotamo[1] as Chewbacca, a Wookiee and first mate of the Millennium Falcon
Kelly Marie Tran[1] as Rose Tico, a specialist in the Resistance
Ian McDiarmid[17] as Palpatine/Darth Sidious, the dull ruler of the Sith and previous sovereign of the cosmic system, who apparently kicked the bucket in Return of the Jedi[c]
Billy Dee Williams as Lando Calrissian,[1] a veteran of the Rebel Alliance and old companion of Chewbacca and Leia. Williams comes back to the Star Wars establishment onscreen just because since 1983's Return of the Jedi.[19]
Furthermore, Dominic Monaghan depicts a Resistance trooper,[20][21] Brian Herring returns as the puppeteer of BB-8,[22] and Billie Lourd, Jimmy Vee, and Greg Grunberg reprise their jobs as Lieutenant Connix, R2-D2, and Temmin "Snap" Wexley, respectively.[1][23][24] Jeff Garlin will have a job in the film,[25] and Denis Lawson will allegedly reprise his job as Wedge Antilles from the first trilogy.In October 2012, Star Wars maker George Lucas sold his creation organization Lucasfilm, and with it the Star Wars establishment, to The Walt Disney Company.[27] Disney therefore declared the Star Wars continuation trilogy.[28] In June 2014, it was reported that Rian Johnson, author and executive of The Last Jedi, would compose a story treatment for Episode IX.[29] In August 2015, Colin Trevorrow was reported as the chief of the film;[30] he was to compose the content with visit associate Derek Connolly.[30][31] In April 2017, Johnson expressed that he was not engaged with composing the film.[32] In February 2016, Disney CEO Bob Iger affirmed that pre-generation on Episode IX had begun.[33] In late April 2017, Disney reported that the film would be discharged on May 24, 2019.[34] A month later, taping was relied upon to start in January 2018,[35][36] however this was later pushed back to August.
In August 2017, it was declared that Jack Thorne would revamp the script.[37] On September 5, 2017, Lucasfilm expressed that Trevorrow had left the generation following inventive differences.[38] The Hollywood Reporter revealed that his working association with Kathleen Kennedy had gotten unmanageable in the wake of neglecting to convey a good content, in spite of composing a few drafts.[39] Johnson was reputed as the top decision to supplant Trevorrow as director,[40] yet expressed "it was never in the arrangement for me to coordinate Episode IX."[41] The following day, it was declared that J. J. Abrams, the executive of The Force Awakens, would come back to coordinate the film,[42] and that the film's discharge date would be moved to December 20, 2019.[43] The story group met with George Lucas before composing the new script,[44] which Abrams co-composed with Chris Terrio.[45] The story was reworked somewhat before taping was completed.[46] The film is being created by Abrams' organization Bad Robot Productions, Kathleen Kennedy, and Michelle Rejwan.[45]
Prior to shooting, Episode IX was at first given the working title Black Diamond, which was then changed to Trixie for obscure reasons.[47] The title, The Rise of Skywalker, was declared at April 2019's Star Wars Celebration in Chicago.

Moves abroad could see Leeds land 13-goal Swedish striker – report
Date: 11th July 2019 at 7:26pm
Written by: Matthew Baldwin
You can't have too many attacking players, that seems to be Marcelo Bielsa's line of thought this summer.
Reports coming in from FotbollDirekt suggest that Dino Islamovic could be on his way out of Swedish club Östersunds FK, with Englishman Blair Turgott likely to see more minutes for them next season. They also reported back in June that Leeds were interested in Islamovic, and this latest move could be the final piece in the puzzle that sees the 25-year-old move to Elland Road.
Islamovic has already spent some time in England, having been part of the Fulham academy set up for two years. He then moved to Groningen and didn't have the greatest success there before moving back to his native Sweden with Trelleborgs.
He had a much better time there, particularly in 2016/17 where he scored eight goals and contributed nine assists in the league. That earnt him a move to his current club Östersunds where he's taken a bit of a step back, with only four goals and two assists in the league last season, taking his total to 15 and 3 overall.
This I think would be a bit of a risky move for Leeds. If he'd produced these kinds of results as a younger prospect, say in his late teens, then there'd be a case for signing him up as a potential man for the future, much like they have done for Raja Mujica.
However, at 25 I'd expect to see a little better return for a centre forward. At his age you'd expect him to be competing for a regular first team spot. With Kemar Roofe and Patrick Bamford contributing 23 league goals between them last season, someone like Islamovic would just be a step back in their attacking arsenal.
That's not to say they flat out shouldn't sign him. In the Championship with games coming thick and fast you need as much depth as possible, and being valued at only £720k it wouldn't represent a huge chunk out of the budget.
He might be able to do a job in cup games against teams lower down the leagues, like Salford City in the first round of the Carabao Cup for instance, however I wouldn't necessarily put my faith in him being the man to get 25 goals in a season and fire Leeds to promotion.

An introduction to the Board of Administration
Matt Gergyek
The BOA, composed of student faculty representatives and two special student representatives, meets once a month. Illustration: Rame Abdulkader.
The BOA sits above the SFUO, designed to "hold the executive accountable"
When the news broke that three SFUO executives were hit with allegations of fraud back in August, much of the blame centred on the executives of the student union itself. But the SFUO isn't an organization without oversight, drawing into question whether the controversy leading up to the termination of the union's contract with the U of O could have been prevented in the first place.
Above the SFUO sits the Board of Administration (BOA) composed of 27 members, including representatives for each faculty (proportional to the number of students in that faculty), a special student representative and an Indigenous student representative. The six SFUO executives also sit on the board.
The BOA is the highest decision-making body within the federation and is tasked with overseeing the affairs of the SFUO, meeting once month to debate student issues. They also approve the SFUO's budget and annual auditor's report.
"One of (our main tasks) is to hold the executive accountable," said Rachel Harrison, one of three engineering student representatives on the BOA. "As a board, we did fail."
"I think more checks, more transparency embedded in our constitution and governance structure could have helped prevent or bring these things to light earlier," she added.
Some major weaknesses students have pointed out with the BOA include inherent conflicts of interest, the slate system, and bias of the chairperson of meetings. But Harrison and Ben King, another engineering student representative on the board, noted the BOA has recently implemented a number of changes to mediate these concerns.
"I want students to know there are members of the board looking out for their best interests and they are working hard to try to rectify the situation," King said.
One of these changes is a motion to trash the faculty director slate system currently in place wherein candidates for the board can run as a team (similar to the Canadian political party system), introduced at the BOA's meeting on Oct. 14. This would not impact the SFUO's executive slate system.
"It does eliminate some of the potential partisanship," King explained. "(BOA members will now be) coming in with their own ideas instead of voting with their friends for the sake of voting for their friends or working as a party, but instead they're making their own conscious decisions for the best of the board."
A motion concerning employees of the SFUO also passed first reading, preventing any current employee of the student union from sitting on the board.
"Employees might be put in a precarious situation where they're voting on something that could affect their employment, depending on how they vote," King said.
Another significant motion passed at the Oct. 14 meeting would prevent any SFUO executive or BOA member from chairing a board meeting. Also passed at the Oct. 14 meeting was a motion to prevent any SFUO executive from sitting on the elections committee.
"There was a lot of controversy about (former SFUO executive) Vanessa Dorimain … being elected as chair of the BOA for meetings," King explained.
Finally, two more motions were passed: the first would establish the General Assembly (GA), a body made up of all U of O undergraduate students that currently sits above the SFUO and below the BOA, as the highest voting power within the federation, meaning the BOA could no longer overturn votes from the GA. The second involved federated bodies, which sit below the SFUO and represent undergraduate faculties and programs at the university. The motion would reserve a number of seats on the BOA for presidents of these bodies.
"Fed bodies … support students in a much more grass roots level, they're more directly involved in student life … so giving them more of a say is very beneficial," King said.
Graphic: Matt Gergyek.
These are "good first steps," Harrison acknowledged, but "I don't think we're going to restore the student population's faith in the SFUO with these things alone … there's a lot more that needs to be done."
On the other hand, King and Harrison said there are some problems with the way the SFUO communicates with the BOA that have led to transparency issues.
"For example, the letters from the university, we only got those a couple days before the Fulcrum got them, so we didn't know these things," Harrison said. "The board, the highest decision making body, should know these things."
Harrison added they have yet to see a budget from the SFUO for this year.
Once the university's contract with the SFUO is terminated come Dec. 24, King said the board may well continue to exist, but in a different capacity.
"We'd be dealing with the fallout of that potential decision by the university admin to not sign an agreement," King said.
"I would just encourage students, even if they don't have any faith that the SFUO will exist after Dec. 24, to still tune in to (BOA meetings) to watch what's going on until then," Harrison said.
A BOA meeting was held on Nov. 4, past the deadline for this publication, and the next meeting will be held Dec. 2, time and location to be announced.

The Story of the Chevalier des Grieux and Manon Lescaut ( ) is a novel by Antoine François Prévost. Published in 1731, it is the seventh and final volume of Mémoires et aventures d'un homme de qualité (Memoirs and Adventures of a Man of Quality).

The story, set in France and Louisiana in the early 18th century, follows the hero, the Chevalier des Grieux, and his lover, Manon Lescaut. Controversial in its time, the work was banned in France upon publication. Despite this, it became very popular and pirated editions were widely distributed. In a subsequent 1753 edition, the Abbé Prévost toned down some scandalous details and injected more moralizing disclaimers. The work was to become the most reprinted book in French Literature, with over 250 editions published between 1731 and 1981.

Plot summary

Seventeen-year-old Des Grieux, studying philosophy at Amiens, comes from a noble and landed family, but forfeits his hereditary wealth and incurs the disappointment of his father by running away with Manon on her way to a convent. In Paris, the young lovers enjoy a blissful cohabitation, while Des Grieux struggles to satisfy Manon's taste for luxury. He acquires money by borrowing from his unwaveringly loyal friend Tiberge and by cheating gamblers. On several occasions, Des Grieux's wealth evaporates (by theft, in a house fire, etc.), prompting Manon to leave him for a richer man because she cannot stand the thought of living in penury.

The two lovers finally end up in New Orleans, to which Manon has been deported as a prostitute, where they pretend to be married and live in idyllic peace for a while. But when Des Grieux reveals their unmarried state to the Governor, Étienne Perier, and asks to be wed to Manon, Perier's nephew, Synnelet sets his sights on winning Manon's hand. In despair, Des Grieux challenges Synnelet to a duel and knocks him unconscious. Thinking he has killed the man, and fearing retribution, the couple flee New Orleans and venture into the wilderness of Louisiana, hoping to reach an English settlement. Manon dies of exposure and exhaustion the following morning and, after burying his beloved, Des Grieux is eventually taken back to France by Tiberge.

Tancock (Penguin, 1949—though he divides the 2-part novel into a number of chapters), Donald M. Frame (Signet, 1961—which notes differences between the 1731 and 1753 editions), Angela Scholar (Oxford, 2004, with extensive notes and commentary), and Andrew Brown (Hesperus, 2004, with a foreword by Germaine Greer).

Henri Valienne (1854–1908), a physician and author of the first novel in the constructed language Esperanto, translated Manon Lescaut into that language.  His translation was published at Paris in 1908, and reissued by the British Esperanto Association in 1926.

Evangelical Theological Society Executive Committee issues 'Gospel and Racism' statement
By BP Staff
NASHVILLE (BP) -- The executive committee of the Evangelical Theological Society (ETS), a group of evangelical academic leaders and educators, issued a statement Monday (June 15) on "The Gospel and Racism," said David Dockery, distinguished professor of theology and special consultant to the president at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.
The statement statement was largely put together by Craig S. Keener, ETS president and a New Testament professor at Asbury Seminary, with suggestions from other signatories.
"We believe the statement is timely and important, expressing our longing and hope for racial reconciliation in the church and in society," Dockery said. "We trust the statement will be helpful in that regard in the days to come."
In addition to Keener and Dockery, Southern Baptist Seminary President Albert Mohler and Union University bioethicist C. Ben Mitchell are among the signatories.
The full statement follows:
"The Gospel and Racism":
Today's situation requires more than a statement, but certainly no less than a statement. As evangelical academic voices, we condemn racism as contrary to Scripture and to the evangelical gospel. Evangelical history includes positively many voices for justice and pioneers of abolitionism, such as William Wilberforce, but also negatively those who assimilated the values of their surrounding unjust culture. Yet the basis of evangelical faith is Scripture, climaxing in the good news of Jesus Christ.
-- In this gospel, everyone must come to God on the same terms (Rom 1:16; 3:22-24; 10:12-13; Gal 3:28; Rev 5:9; 7:9), and become one body in Christ (Rom 12:4-5; 1 Cor 12:12-13; Eph 4:4; Col 3:15).
-- In reconciling Jew and Gentile in Christ (Eph. 2:16), surmounting a barrier that God himself once established, God in Christ summons us to surmount every barrier erected merely by human sinfulness.
-- Scripture does not discriminate by color, and, on the most common understanding of Acts 8, the first Gentile convert may have been Black and from Africa.
-- Jesus, both by his example and by his teaching, summons us to serve and love fellow believers to the point of laying down our lives for them (John 13:14-17, 34-35; 1 John 3:16-18), and to love all our neighbors as ourselves (Lev. 19:18; Mark 12:31; Rom. 13:8-10; Gal. 5:14).
-- This invites us to be swifter to listen to others than to speak (Eph 4:29; Jms 1:19), to mourn with those who suffer (Rom. 12:15), and to join them in acting for justice on their behalf (Isa. 1:17; Luke 11:42; Jms. 1:27).
ETBU celebrates Spring 2020 commencement with onsite and virtual services
By Sydney McBride
MARSHALL, Texas, (BP) -- East Texas Baptist University (ETBU) held its spring 2020 commencement ceremonies Saturday (June 13) with students opting to attend onsite or virtual services.
ETBU President J. Blair Blackburn presided over the socially distanced ceremonies as 173 students received undergraduate degrees and 20 earned graduate degrees.
"East Texas Baptist University was incredibly grateful to welcome graduates and their families back to the Hill for this day of celebration as we worshiped the Lord and recognized their successes and accomplishments," Blackburn said. "Regardless of what happened the last semester of their final year at ETBU, God has a plan and purpose for their life as graduates. We have heritages among our campus that help and shape each of us into whose we are and who we are to be in Christ. We praise God as He has developed ETBU into a mosaic quilt."
Thomas Sanders, ETBU provost and vice president for academic affairs, participated in the ceremonies, as did university deans.
"Commencement … is a time for celebration for both the University and the families to join together with pride in celebration of the accomplishments of these students," Sanders said. "Each student's hard work, under the guidance and support of faculty members, staff, family members and friends has resulted in the accomplishments we recognize today."
Texas state senator Bryan Hughes gave the commencement address during both ceremonies.
"Normally at graduations, all of the graduates are sitting together, while their families and friends are spread out throughout the room," Hughes said. "This year, it's unique to have graduates sitting with their families, their friends, with the ones who supported them, prayed for them, who sacrificed for them to get here. This has been structured around you."
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the ceremonies were rescheduled from May 9.
Sydney McBride is communication coordinator at East Texas Baptist University in Marshall, Texas.

Since their last visit Susan HAD organised a car port, and the TARDIS materialised within it, screened from the curious eyes of the neighbours. Chris and Davie, playing in the garden, heard the familiar sound and came running. They were waiting when The Doctor came out through the door.
"Hello, boys," he said, as they came to be hugged and kissed by their great grandfather. "Rose has a present for you."
Rose came forward out of the TARDIS with a large package loosely covered in brown paper. The boys ripped the paper off quickly to reveal a wire cage containing two unlikely time travellers.
"Guinea pigs," Chris said with a laugh as he remembered learning about the pets that had become extinct on earth in the mid twenty-second century, so that they had never seen or heard of them.
Rose had her share of hugs from the boys before they took the guinea pigs, promptly christened Gregory and Gary, to their bedroom. Rose and The Doctor meanwhile were brought to the living room and given coffee and sandwiches by Susan. The boys came back and sat either side of The Doctor, determined not to let him out of their sight while he was there with them.
"That is a sight I once never thought to see," Susan said to Rose as they both watched The Doctor with the boys. "You know, he took care of me from when I was a baby. He was the only parent I knew. I missed him a lot when we parted. When the twins were born, I so wanted him to see them. I didn't even know if he was alive or dead then. Everyone assumes I named Chris after my father, but I didn't even know him. I named him after Grandfather. I wish he'd come sooner. I wonder sometimes… did he forget me, or did he stay away because he thought I didn't want him? Or because he didn't want me?"
"Susan!" The Doctor stood up and came to where they stood, slipping his arm around his granddaughter. "Don't talk about a Time Lord within his superior hearing. You ought to know that. You've been living on Earth too long. I've never forgotten you. I wandered the universe for five hundred years after you left me, and I never forgot you, my dear child, my own flesh and blood. I never stopped loving you. But I thought it better to let you live your own life. I thought you were better off without me."
He paused and both Rose looking on and Susan held in his tender embrace were aware of him blinking back tears he didn't want them to see. "I think, now, I was wrong. I'm sorry for that. I am so very sorry. I should have been there for you when you needed me."
"You were," Susan told him, easily forgiving him the long hurt of missing him as he held her so sweetly. "Grandfather, in my hearts, you always were here. Do you remember when I was a baby, singing Venusian lullabies to me as I slept in your arms. I used to sing them to the boys. I sing them to Sukie now. And I always think of you."
"I remember. I sang them to your father when he was a baby, too. I loved him so much. I love you, Susan, and your children."
"Steady on," Rose told him. "You're starting to sound like a character from a Disney family movie. It doesn't go with that tough northern accent."
Susan laughed and agreed. So did The Doctor, but he wasn't finished with the sentimentality, yet.
"You're all a part of me, and of Julia. Susan, you look so much like her it hurts to look at you. But I would suffer that hurt any time. As for the boys - they are the future – my future that I never knew I had." He paused and held his granddaughter tightly for a long while before the boys claimed his time again.
They wanted to play games with him. He sat with them at the table and taught them to play chess. It took only a few minutes for them to pick up the rules. In another half hour they were beating him. Rose, watching closely, knew he was not deliberately losing to please them. He fought them at every game but they had got good in a very short time.
He set aside the ordinary chess board and conjured an image in front of them of what looked like a multi-level chess board. He said it was how it was played on Gallifrey. The challenge was obvious. Not only to learn a new version of the game, but to mentally manipulate pieces that existed only because he was thinking of them.
"Good grief," Susan said. "The mental power…." She and Rose both watched in amazement as Chris and Davie took it in turns.
Rose looked at The Doctor. She wondered how much strain it was putting on him to keep up the image against their manipulation of it. His eyes glazed over and he did not speak. She went and stood behind him with her hands on his shoulders, hoping that she could lend him some support. She was almost relieved when Chris won the game outright and he was able to dissolve the image. She felt him sigh deeply and sag momentarily before recovering his poise. It HAD been an effort. He touched her hand on his shoulder and smiled at her.
"I'm all right," he assured her. But he sounded tired even so. Susan was concerned for him and for the boys.
"Grandfather," she said. "I think that's a bit advanced for them."
"No, it's not," he assured her. "It's a bit advanced for ME. They're doing fine. Look." The boys had managed to create an image of a table football game and were playing against each other. "They're exercising their psychic skills." He laughed out loud triumphantly.
"So much for half bloods! THREE generations of Human-Time Lord blood and they have stronger abilities than the masters at the Academy – those who taught me all I know about telepathy. The arrogant fools with their 'pure-blood' probably inhibited our true evolution." He became so excited as he spoke that Rose and Susan both began to be alarmed.
"Doctor… Try to remember they're just children," Rose said. "YOUR great-grandchildren. Not a genetic experiment."
"I KNOW THAT," he protested. "But still… Oh, there is so much I need to teach them still."
"It doesn't all have to be at once," Susan said. "Give yourself a break."
"When they are fully fledged Time Lords is when I can take a break," he said. "Until then… Oh, if I ever had a good reason to be alive… to teach them everything…."
Rose and Susan looked at each other. Susan spoke the thought they had both had.
"When did you ever think there WASN'T a reason to be alive?"
"After the Time War," he said, suddenly very serious. "I should have died with the other Time Lords you know. It was a freak chance that kept me alive. That and my TARDIS wouldn't let me die. And there have been times when I wondered if it did the right thing. If it should have let me go." He paused and smiled weakly. "But I have you two," he said, taking both their hands. "And I have my boys now." He looked at them playing their incredible mind game.
"Just don't let David hear you talk about 'my boys'," Susan said. "I understand what you mean, Grandfather. But David…. He still feels you want to take them away from him. But I am glad you feel there is a reason to live." She put her arms around him again. "I would never have known what happened to you."
"I was being stupid anyway. Life… life is always the better option. Death only has one outcome. Life has a million possibilities." After his moment of melancholy, which Rose strongly suspected was caused by his mental powers being weakened by the game, he smiled brightly again. Both she and Susan felt it was like the sun coming out after rain.
The days they stayed with Susan, Rose thought, were the longest period she had known The Doctor to be happy. They fell into a routine it was possible to get very used to, beginning early with Rose's martial arts lessons, which Chris and Davie joined in as well, The Doctor deciding that they, too, could benefit from the disciplines and skills of wiser people than any of them.
After breakfast he spent the morning in the many theory lessons he had to teach the boys, all in those ten minute telepathic bursts. Between the lessons he talked and laughed and played with them but they still got through whole subjects in a few hours.
In the afternoons he found different ways to hone their telepathic skills now they had moved on from sending pictures to each other. The multi-layered telepathic chess game was one they both enjoyed.
The Doctor gave up trying to play against them. He simply imagined the board and let them play. Chris was marginally better than his brother at the movement. Chris's abilities at all levels were slightly better than Davie, he noted, but not so much that it mattered. And Davie had a quick wit that he used in compensation.
After tea, he invariably played in the garden with the boys, their football games going on for hours. If they were not Gallifreyans with double hearts and superior strength Rose might have wondered where they got the energy. She was exhausted watching them.
She enjoyed keeping Susan company. It was strange, but the age gap between them didn't seem to matter, nor did the fact that she was – for want of a better word – the girlfriend of Susan's grandfather. That was, she admitted, a pretty strange thing to cope with.
Susan talked often about the adventures she and her grandfather had in space and time. Rose was fascinated with the fact that Susan actually spent her childhood on board the TARDIS. They had left Gallifrey when she was four, and they didn't settle on earth until she was fourteen. And even then, the TARDIS had been the place she went home to every evening from school.
"It didn't seem strange," she said. "The TARDIS was my home. Grandfather was the one who took care of me. And sometimes I took care of him. We had each other."
"I know that feeling," Rose said, glancing at HER Doctor as he talked with the boys. "We look after each other, and mostly it's just the two of us."
"Yes." Susan looked at him too and bit back any other comment. She had reluctantly come to terms with her grandfather's relationship with Rose. The fact that she LIKED Rose helped a lot. The reservations she still had about them being together she would never mention to either of them. Rose would be too upset and The Doctor would just be stubborn. He had lost none of THAT about him. He might look like a forty-five year old, but there was still a lot of the downright stubborn, insufferable old man she remembered in him and Susan didn't want to rock the boat by letting that side of him out in the open too much. She liked him happy, content, playing with the boys, accepting the domesticity of her life in a way he never had before.
"I remember when we left Gallifrey," Susan went on. "I WAS only young, but I remember it so vividly. Grandfather came back one night from a meeting of the High Council. He was in a terrible rage. They just would not listen to him. He sent my nurse away and told her she wouldn't be needed anymore. He said that he had retired from the service of the High Council and could look after me from now on. Then he dressed me. I remember wearing a black cloak with a hood and I was excited because it was night time. There was a full moon, silver bright, and we just looked at it for a long time. I didn't know then that was because we would never see it again. Then we travelled to the depot where the TARDIS's were kept. Grandfather's one was being serviced." She laughed. "Its chameleon circuit was broken."
"It still is," Rose laughed with her
"After all these years, I can't imagine a TARDIS that ISN'T shaped like an English police public call box. If anyone turned up with a different one it wouldn't seem real."
"OUR TARDIS is the only one left now, isn't it?" Rose said.
"Yes, I suppose it must be." She sighed. "I'm glad ours is still here. My home. Funny to think we had to 'steal' it. Grandfather did something to the sensors around Gallifrey so that nobody knew we had left. We escaped undetected. But we were exiles. If we'd gone back, he would have been arrested. We heard later that he had been tried in his absence and declared a criminal. His father was forced to disown him from his family. I know that hurt him. But we WERE free. We were together. I suppose he could have left me with my nurse to be looked after by the family. But he loved me too much to leave me. And I am glad. We were happy. He could be so cross sometimes. He was so angry about what had happened. But he was always kind to me." She sighed. "No, I suppose that sounds too perfect. We did row sometimes. Especially when I was older. But we still loved each other."
"Sounds like a normal family to me. Rose said. "Just like me and my mum."
"That is the nicest thing anyone ever said," Susan told her with feeling. "That we were NORMAL. It's actually nice to think that we were."
"What's NORMAL?" The Doctor came to them as they talked, and Rose suspected he had heard quite a bit of the conversation. "Susan, you said it yourself at the start. It WAS normal for us. Even if it wasn't recognised by anyone else. Rose, aren't you used to "normal" being me and you kicking around the universe together by now?"
"Yes," she admitted.
"Well then, let everyone else measure "normal" by their standards and we'll have ours. But come and sit down for a moment, Susan. I want to ask you something." He looked so serious then that Susan did. Rose sat beside her.
"I think it's time the boys got some field experience," he said. "I want to take them for a few weeks, to show them some of the things they're just getting the theory of at the moment."
"A few weeks…" Susan looked at him, then at the boys sitting at the table at their game. "Well, they're so advanced at school it wouldn't even matter if they missed some time. But…"
"Susan!" The Doctor smiled indulgently at her. "You've lived in linear time too long. You've forgotten what we are. I could take the boys away for a year and bring them back before teatime."
"Don't do THAT," she shrieked. "I couldn't miss a year of their growing up. You wouldn't do that to me."
"No, you're right. I couldn't. And I wouldn't. But this little time at least. Time for them to get to know my way of life, the life that USED to be ours, Susan."
"USED to be," Susan emphasised. "NOT now. It's not how I've brought them up."
"Even so, it IS and it SHOULD be their life. They need it. They need to learn. And I need to spend the time with them to teach them these things."
"David was right. You do want to take the boys from him… from us."
"No, Susan. Please don't think that. They ARE your children. They always will be. But they NEED what I have to offer."
"What about…. What if something happens. Grandfather, you…. The things you do. They would be in danger all the time."
"She has a point," Rose said. "You haven't even taken me for a picnic lately without trouble starting."
"Yes, but it's not as if I LOOK for trouble."
"Grandfather, trouble usually finds you." Susan said with a wry smile.
"And I deal with it. I always HAVE. You both know that. And after all, did I ever knowingly get either of you into danger?"
Both immediately replied, Rose reminding him of the time they chased a Chula ship to Earth in the middle of the 1941 blitz and Susan mentioning Daleks and Cybermen.
"Yes, granted. But if you'd both LISTENED to me and stayed put when I said stay put and 'don't touch' when I said 'don't touch' you'd have had a lot less trouble. And so would I."
"And you think Chris and Davie are going to 'stay put' and 'not touch?'" Susan laughed. "Even I can't make them do THAT!"
He conceded the point.
"But anyway, I wasn't planning to take them anywhere with Daleks or Cybermen. I thought some historical and cultural tours. They've been learning Earth history from books. I can show them it first hand."
"Grandfather, your favourite period of history is the French Revolution."
"Not there," he promised. "But that still leaves millennia to explore with them. Please, Susan. Let them have some of the wonder that you had when you were their age. It wasn't all frightening. We had some wonderful times. Do you remember skiing on that planet that was entirely covered in snow?"
"I remember you broke both your legs," Susan replied. "And we were stuck at the top of a mountain, in a cave, until your bones mended and we could get out of there."
"Yeah, that was painful. But we were in no ACTUAL danger."
"Grandfather," Susan said. "I have never regretted a MOMENT of the time I spent roaming the universe with you. The TARDIS was the only home I really knew until David and I married. You were the BEST parent a child could ask for. Even when you were being downright cruel to me."
"When was I cruel to you?"
"Every time we left a place where I had made friends," she sighed. "THAT was the great drawback. We never once returned to see any of them. It was always onward, new places, new people. And you never saw how hard that was. But I had you. And that was enough. At least until David came into my life."
"I should have just pushed him into the TARDIS and brought him with us," The Doctor said. "Instead of locking you out of it."
"You what?" Rose looked at them both.
"He locked me out of the TARDIS because I was going to give up David to stay with him and look after him," Susan explained. "He MADE me choose. And by the way, I never thanked you for that. David and I have had a good life thanks to you. It didn't seem like it at the time, but it WAS the right thing."
"There, see. I'm not such a bad grandparent, am I? I knew what was best for you. And I know what's best for Chris and Davie."
"I don't know what David is going to say."
"I do," The Doctor sighed. "He's not going to like it. But I hoped you would persuade him."


#26, which as you can see features the return of Miss Eerie, the character who debuted in DITKO PRESENTS . This will be the eighth Miss Eerie story, bringing her up to 64 pages if it's an 8-pager like all the others have been.
This will be Rex Graine's first return to the 32-page series since OH, NO! NOT AGAIN, DITKO! , although he's had a few solo issues, both new and reprint, since then.
A new Mr. A publication had been teased as their next Kickstarter project, though - for the 50th anniversary of the character.


Today's television lineup is packed with shows about property ownership. From remodeling to purchasing to flipping homes, HGTV and other similar channels have inundated homeowners with ideas about real estate.
As a result, many buyers now have high expectations as they search for a potential home. They've seen the magazine-worthy houses on TV and that's what they want to find when they view a home. Things should be picture perfect to grab their attention. Fresh paint, new kitchens and bathrooms, neutral décor, and modern conveniences top the lists of many buyers.
It's important for sellers to keep these standards in mind as they prepare to place their homes on the market. To get that coveted buyer, sellers must give buyers what they want. If they are looking for a picturesque setting, then give them one.
Invest in upgrades for outdated interiors. Allow a professional to stage the home. Take the time to boost curb appeal. Ask a real estate agent for recommendations to decide what changes would make the best investment.
As sellers make these changes, one concept is essential to keep in mind: location. While upgrades can help sell a home, it's important that sellers not price themselves out of their neighborhood. Remodeling and redecorating should be appropriate for the location.
If a seller builds an addition and updates a kitchen with all the bells and whistles, the home might be beautiful, but also overpriced. The seller may have created a $250,000 home in a $150,000 neighborhood.
Again, it's important to consult with a local real estate agent who is familiar with the area. He or she can determine what projects should be completed to properly prep the home for the market.
With the right upgrades at the right budget, sellers are more likely to sell the home quickly and get top dollar for their property.
To some sellers, it seems perfectly natural to remain in the home when buyers view their property. After all, the seller can point out all the fabulous features and answer any questions the buyers have about the home, right?
Wrong. This is not the time for sellers to put on their hosting hats and welcome guests into the home. If buyers are coming by to see the property, sellers should vacate the premises. Why?
When sellers are around, buyers feel less comfortable. They are likely to feel rushed and will spend less time in the home, since their visit feels like an imposition on the sellers.
This is the opposite of what needs to happen to sell a home. Buyers must be made to feel as comfortable as possible. This will encourage them to take their time and truly consider the home for purchase. They will be more likely to notice those very features the sellers were hoping to point out, since they won't be rushed.
Buyers also typically feel more comfortable asking their real estate agent rather than the owner questions about the property. They may have a concern the agent can address that the buyer would not be willing to bring up in front of the seller.
Sellers can also get more helpful feedback indirectly through the agent. For example, a bad odor in the home may be an issue, but buyers might feel rude bringing this up in front of the seller. If sellers can obtain honest feedback, they can use this to improve future showings and sell the home faster.

Shocking proof that crisis actors, green screens, CGI, and paid propagandist are being used to fake worldwide events in order to scare people into giving up liberties, go to war, and create a one world government!!
Rick Staggenborg writes: " Media lying to justify war is nothing new. They are caught in their lies fairly often. What is new in this case is that the lies were so blatant as to prompt an outraged response from the public that did hit the lamestream media in Britain.
I suspect that citizens of the UK were already much more aware of media lies than gullible Americans, as shown by their tremendous response at the outset of the Iraq War, when a million protesters were on the streets of London. They also convinced Parliament not to vote for bombing Syria when it came to a vote.

Republican Ed Gillespie (left) and Democrat Ralph Northam are in a close race for Virginia governor.
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — Republican Ed Gillespie and Democrat Ralph Northam both said momentum was on their side as election day approached in Virginia's high-stakes, closely watched race for governor.
The candidates raced across the state Monday after a weekend spent trying to trying to rally supporters ahead of Tuesday's vote.
Northam felt enthusiasm from his supporters and said he was heartened by the high number of absentee votes that had been cast so far compared with four years ago, particularly in Democratic-leaning areas. He predicted turnout could be significantly higher than recent gubernatorial elections.
"We may get well over 50 percent, which would be real good for our party," Northam said.
Gillespie told supporters at a rally Sunday that Republicans were set to sweep statewide races.
"We no longer just have momentum — we have the lead," Gillespie said.
Virginia is one of only two states electing a new governor this year, and the contest is viewed by many as an early referendum on President Trump's political popularity.
Democrats are eager to prove they can harness anti-Trump energy into success at the polls, while Republicans are looking to show they have a winning blueprint in a blue-leaning state. Most public polls have shown a close race to succeed Gov. Terry McAuliffe, a Democrat who is term limited.
Northam, a pediatric neurologist and the state's lieutenant governor, spent Saturday in voter-rich northern Virginia, where Democrats have run up huge leads in recent statewide elections. He attended rallies with union members, immigrant groups and others where he sought to use anti-Trump energy as a motivating factor.
National Democrats, still stinging from last year's presidential race, are hoping a strong showing by Northam will help motivate the party ahead of the 2018 mid-term elections. A string of high-profile surrogates, including former President Barack Obama, have campaigned on his behalf.
Some volunteers helping Northam said Trump's victory had spurred them to get involved in a political campaign for the first time.
But some Republicans said they felt Trump's victory has energized their party in a lasting way that will help Gillespie.
"People realize they can have a voice and can make a difference in an election," said John Ancellotti, a retired Coast Guard captain and federal agent who attended a Gillespie rally Sunday.

And when that doesn't work, in comes Lois Lane! From the creative team of Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev, it's another fully painted noir thriller that will tear a bloody trail through the DC Universe.
Item #: 61895 Diamond code: JUL190564 UPC: 76194136122200411

Many clues have been laid, along with many red herrings, and Event Leviathan #4 left us with an ending that people have been waiting for.

Q: Everyone is getting sick! What can I do? First my son got the mumps. Then my wife got dysentery. I don't want them to die, but when I was told they were sick, my only option was to "ignore it".
Is there anything else I can do to make sure they get better? I quite like my family members, and would be sad if they died.

A: Use medicine.
That's the easy answer, but the not-so-easy part is finding it. The supplies merchants I have seen don't have any. So far the only place I found it was from a stranger on the road. He offered me two medicine for a nominal fee (20 or 40 dollars I think).
I used the medicine to cure both Mumps and a broken leg, so I assume its a blanket cure for all injuries/illnesses.
Will edit if I find any other sources of medicine.

I cannot remember where I first read about The Thirteen Days of Christmas by Jenny Overton, but I'm glad I took note of it. I started reading it aloud to my girls last Christmas but finally abandoned it because of our December trip to Disney World. Honestly, though, I think the girls enjoyed it a lot more this year. It's the very, very English story of the Kitson family–Papa, Annaple, Prudence, James, and Christopher. The younger children and Papa are ready to marry Annaple off because she is such a fuss-budget at home–she's ready to be mistress of her own home and family. They even have a prospective bridegroom–Francis Vere. However, Francis isn't quite romantic enough to suit Annaple, so her younger siblings start coaching him on how to win Annaple's heart. The story takes place (obviously) during the thirteen days of Christmas, so (obviously) Francis is inspired by the song "The Twelve Days of Christmas." When Annaple writes him a positively glowing thank you note (because she's proper that way) for the partridge in a pear tree that he sends her on day one, he goes over the top for day two, and his gifts keep getting more and more . . . more. 🙂 By the end of the story she ends up with 364 things–various and sundry birds (including hens Francis sailed to France to procure), pipers, drummers, leaping lords, etc. The chaos that ensues is quite entertaining!

Deep in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains in West Virginia, where every man owns a gun and a moonshine still, abides living legend Jesco White, "the dancing outlaw". As a boy Jesco was in and out of reform school and the insane asylum. To keep him out of trouble, his daddy D-Ray taught him the art of mountain dancing, a frenzied version of tap dancing to wild country banjo music. After his father's death, crazy Jesco dons his father's tap shoes and takes his show on the road.


Produced during the primary season of the 2016 presidential race, The Drag Knight sees Bernie Sanders and RuPaul team up as the dynamic duo to defeat Trumper and The Tedguin. Any similarities to 1960s Batman are entirely coincidental.
Working in a team of four, I was responsible for illustrating the sets and backgrounds for each scene using Adobe Illustrator. The other team members focused on character development using a rotoscoping technique similar to that used in 'A Scanner Darkly'.
The scenes and characters were layered in a way that we could manipulate them as needed in the animation.
Using Adobe After Effects, I imported the characters and scenes into compositions as per our storyboards. I built out the story with our assets using animation techniques such as puppeteering, parallax scrolling and parenting elements.
The idea for the The Drag Knight originated from an individual animation I produced earlier in 2016. Entitled 'Why So Serious, America?', the stop motion animation drew inspiration from the 'rough and ready' style, and political satire of South Park.

I like this talk by Espen Brunborg so much because it demonstrates its topic while you are listening to it. So not only you'll learn about the power of rhythm, timing, meeting or not meeting expectations, but at the same time you'll feel it. And this is exactly what the talk is about. The 'e' in experience stands for 'experience'. Or exitement? And it has a drumming Gorilla in it. And God, Ethan Marcotte, and the secrets of how mankind screwed up his creation.

It's a bit lonely finishing a show when no one you know has watched it and anyone else in the world who has probably finished it two months ago when all seven episodes were released on Hulu. I have no idea what this show's future holds since it could just as easily be renewed as it could be cancelled and entirely forgotten. Featuring the anniversary show with a surprisingly serious Johnny talking to a handful of comedian guests was appropriate since it helped to remind about just how long Johnny has been a fixture, and about how everyone who works for him, even those writers unlucky enough to be laid off just because someone needs to be fired each year, respects him and wants to be part of this universe. It was sweet that Andy, desperate for something to do and a reason to be there, found all of the archives and was able to catalog them, thereby assuring himself a place and a role for the foreseeable future. Joy also handled a problem with grace and ease, and while she should have been rewarded with a celebratory night, one that would have gone great for Andy too, instead she found her father shooting up in the bathroom, putting yet another dent in her fractured image of him. The sudden arrival of Andy's brother also throws things for a loop. I'd be interested in seeing more of this show, which is light and fun, and I guess for now we (anyone else out there?) wait to see if it will ever return.

A new study, "Low Quality Education as Poverty Trap", done by the Social Policy Research Group at Stellenbosch University found that the schooling available to children in poor communities is reinforcing rather than challenging the racial and economic inequities created by South Africa's apartheid-era policies.
Using newly available data sets, including those linking information on income with numeracy skills, the report analyzed how low-quality tuition in the post-apartheid education system is perpetuating "exclusion and marginalization".

The latest South Africa Survey recently released by the South African Institute for Race Relations have found amongst others that Model C schools (former whites-only schools) were still setting the pace for quality education. Race was found to be less important as a factor of scholastic achievement than the type of school a child attends. The matric rate for blacks in Model C schools in 2009 was 88%, compared to only 55% overall in all government schools. Coloured pupils in Model C schools achieved an 88 % pass rate compared to 76% overall while Indian pupils achieved 98 % compared to 92 % overall.

"The South African public can be reassured that the National Senior Certificate (NSC) is a good, solid, robust qualification," Elizabeth Burroughs, a senior manager at Umalusi, said in Johannesburg at the release of a report on the international standing of South Africa's matric.

Rapper Akon is building a new futuristic 'Crypto city,' in Senegal, which will trade exclusively in his own digital cash currency called AKoin.
The US-born singer, who is of Senegalese descent, says his futuristic city will be built on a 2,000-acre land gifted to him by the President of Senegal, Macky Sall.
According to its official website, the city will be a five-minute drive from the West African state's new international airport.
While the city project is still in development, AKoin is expected to launch early July.
The singer– real name Aliaume Thiam– unveiled plans for the city and his currency during a panel at the Cannes Lions festival of creativity, which ended on Friday.
Akon, 45, is more recognized as a business man than a musician these days.
His most recent venture is Akon Lighting Africa which is providing solar power to African countries.
Now he has turned his attention to digital currencies and its underlying blockchain technology. Akon argues that blockchain can enable Africans to become less dependent on their governments.
"I think that blockchain and crypto could be the saviour for Africa in many ways because it brings the power back to the people… Cryptocurrency and blockchain technology offer a more secure currency that enables people in Africa to advance themselves independent of the government," Akon a the event held in the French city of Cannes.
So, why shouldn't I buy Bitcoin?
Tricia Martinez, CEO of zero-fee money app WALA, noted that almost 94% of transactions on the continent are still cash-based.
She blamed the fees charged by financial institutions on transactions as a major setback for adoption.
"Zero fee is how we're going to solve financial inclusion," Martinez said.
While attention is given to unbanked Africans, the experts also noted that an increasing number of underbanked Africans had already given up on the financial system due to its inefficiencies and high fees.
Campbell on the other hand believe the shortcomings of Africa's banks are creating spaces for blockchain to fill.
"The future is transactional. Blockchain will do for payments what the internet has done for information," Campbell said.
However, a major obstacle that Akon's AKOin must overcome is regaining the trust of some Africans who are wary after losing savings to online investment ventures and ponzi schemes such as MMM.
Data shows that investment in cryptocurrency is growing In Africa, South Africans and Nigerians are the highest ranked African countries with the largest volume of cryptocurrency transactions, according to data from CryptoCompare.
Instead of continuing to oppose its adoption, Alabi said African governments need to get on board and share Akon's vision by keeping an open policy, he says.
Some African governments are already taking steps to embrace blockchain technologies.
In Ghana, it is being deployed by the land registry to tackle fraud. Kenya is boosting remittances with the technology while in South Africa, it is being used for identity verification.
