Susan Collins Is Very Upset That Democrats Are Looking To Unseat Her
Screengrab/Face the Nation/YouTube
Sen. Susan Collins accused Sen. Chuck Schumer of "telling lies" about her to the people of Maine.
Maine Senator Susan Collins showed clear disdain for Democratic efforts to unseat her in the upcoming general election, telling Politico this week that those efforts involve "telling lies" about her to her constituents.
"I don't think Chuck Schumer is very interested in my opinion since he's just launched a website in Maine and just committed an additional $700,000 in additional negative advertising from the Majority Forward PAC," Collins said. "I don't think he's really very interested in doing anything but trying to defeat me by telling lies to the people of Maine. And you can quote me on that."
The senator's comments came after Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell concluded a final whip count laying out the path to move forward on President Donald Trump's impeachment trial without input from Democrats, Politico noted.
The trial will follow rules set out during President Bill Clinton's impeachment trial in 1999, which does not agree to call witnesses from the outset but allows for a Senate vote on the matter following opening arguments.
Schumer has loudly and consistently called for allowing new witness testimony at the trial, specifically for hearing from acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney, former National Security Adviser John Bolton, Mulvaney's senior adviser Robert Blair, and Associate Director for National Security at the Office of Management and Budget Michael Duffey.
Though McConnell has succeeded in keeping his caucus in step, Schumer warned that the American people will be watching.
"Make no mistake: On the question of witnesses and documents, Republicans may run, but they can't hide," the New York Democrat said. "There will be votes at the beginning [of the trial] on whether to call the four witnesses we've proposed and subpoena the documents we've identified. America, and the eyes of history, will be watching what my Republican colleagues do."
Collins, along with fellow moderates Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Mitt Romney of Utah, initially bristled at McConnell's openness about coordinating with the White House on impeachment. But ultimately all three fell in line with the Majority Leader's plan.

We mostly follow the film from the perspective of mild-mannered Gummi (Sigurjonsson), who beams with pride on his stock of sheep, entering his ram into a local competition for the best example of good breeding. We see him narrowly losing the latest competition to his neighbor and estranged alcoholic and temperamental brother Kiddi, which leaves a bitter taste in Gummi's mouth not only for the loss, but it's a loss to the man he most detests in this world.
During the aftermath, Gummi decides to inspect Kiddi's winning ram and is disturbed to find it appears to be a little ill, perhaps showing signs of the dreaded scrapie, a contagious degenerative illness in sheep that affects their brains and spinal cords. He reports the incident to the local veterinary council, who immediately inspect the ram in question, raising the dander of Kiddi for the imposition, with the results leading to the slaughter of all of the sheep in the valley if true, with no possibility of new sheep farming for at least two years — something that the prideful Kiddi will likely not take kindly too, especially as it is viewed as an act of jealousy and spite from his scornful brother.

Greek culture comes alive during event
by Wehtahnah Tucker September 17, 2009 July 20, 2015 0116
CARDIFF-BY-THE-SEA — A taste of Greek culture was on display during the 31st annual Greek Festival at Saints Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church Sept. 12 and Sept. 13.
The popular event featured family friendly activities including music, food, games and dancing. "I took a lesson this time around," said Encinitas resident Peter Berman as he exited the stage. "Last year I just shuffled my feet and ended up bumping into a lot of people."
One of the favorites of the festival is the authentic Greek food. A complete meal was available for those with a hearty appetite consisting of souvlakia, spanakopita, pastitso, dolmathes, pilafe and Athenian salad with olives and feta cheese; or barbecued shish kabob, spinach pita, Greek lasagna, stuffed grape leaves with rice and Greek rice.
"I always leave room for the pastries," said Vista resident Sharon Watkins. "Where else can you get this kind of galatoboureko?" she asked. Watkins said she enjoys the custard pastry with a cup of traditional Greek roast coffee.
In addition to the festive atmosphere, Watkins said she liked having the opportunity to expose her children to another culture. Shane, 10 and Nathan, 13, said they took a tour of the church but drew the line at dancing. "I liked the colorful tiles and windows inside (the church)," Shane said. "But I told my mom I wasn't going to dance no matter what."
Church tours were held on both days of the festival. "I've always been curious about what's inside," said Bill Petersen. "I don't think I ever would have stopped by to look if it weren't for the festival."
According to organizers, the event drew 6,000 people in 2008.

The Art of the Actor: The Essential History of Acting, From Classical Times to the Present Day. He began experimenting in developing the first elements of what became known as the. Furniture was so arranged as to allow the actors to face front. There is also another path: you can move from feeling to action, arousing feeling first. By the age of twenty-five, Stanislavski was well-known as an amateur actor. For evidence of Strasberg's misunderstanding of this aspect of Stanislavski's work, see Strasberg 2010, 150—151. He co-founded the Moscow Art Theatre in 1897 and developed a performance process known as method acting, allowing actors to use their personal histories to express authentic emotion and create rich characters.
Stanislavski did not encourage complete with the role, however, since a genuine belief that one had become someone else would be. After the 1917 Russian Revolution, Stanislavski faced some criticism for not producing communist works, yet he was able to maintain his company's unique perspective and not contend with an imposed artistic vision. The prospect of becoming a professional actor was considered beneath someone of his ; actors had an even lower social in Russia than in the rest of Europe, having only recently been and the of the. The task is the spur to creative activity, its motivation. In 1948, the theatre company was divided so that each part could specialise.
And lastly How do I the character do it? However, life went on, and in 1919 Stanislavski was very much involved in the organization of the Opera Studio under the auspices of the Bolshoi Theatre Russian: Bolshoy teatr or Большой театр, which was later renamed after himself. The style is very different with methods and interjections that he developed later on. To seek knowledge about , Stanislavsky turned to science. A decision by the and the closed the theatre in 1936, to the bewilderment of its members. All that remains of the character and the play are the situation, the life circumstances, all the rest is mine, my own concerns, as a role in all its creative moments depends on a living person, i. His love of the theatre blossomed throughout his life, leading him to become one of the world's most influential theatre practitioners to date. They can plan everything very carefully and their deliberation is reflected in a great foresight; they are seldom surprised by something.
Stanislavski's early productions were created without the use of his system. Bulgakov's cutting portrait of Ivan Vasilievich likely reflects his frustrating experiences with Stanislavski during the latter's eventually aborted production of Bulgakov's play A Cabal of Hypocrites in 1930—1936. Tolstoy re-wrote the fourth act of his along the lines of Stanislavski's suggestions in 1896. Furthermore, the actor must never lose control of his creation and must have the technical discipline to repeat his previously experienced emotions at every performance. The first in the country to teach an approach to acting based on Stanislavski's system and its American derivatives was , where it is still taught today. It mobilises the actor's thought and in order to activate other, less-controllable psychological processes—such as emotional experience and behaviour—sympathetically and indirectly. .
He spent his most time by directing and performing for over a decade. The whole production is woven from the sense-impressions and feelings of the author and the actors. He was pronounced dead on August 7, 1938. La metodología didáctica que desarrolló expuesta en los dos volúmenes de El trabajo del actor sobre sí mismo, dedicados respectivamente a la psicología y a la técnica de la interpretación estaba destinada a suscitar grandes polémicas, pero sigue siendo punto de referencia indispensable para cualquier estudioso o intérprete de teatro. He believed that actors needed to inhabit authentic emotion while on stage and, to do so, they could draw upon feelings they'd experienced in their own lives. As a cultural anthropologist, Kopytoff insists that such a biographical approach be culturally informed, for things are culturally constructed as people are culturally constructed. Polyakova, Elena; Stanislavsky, Progress Publishers, Moscow, 1982.
There began a period of new explorations, of reappraisal of the old and the search for new ways. It was so successful that the Theatre adopted a Seagull as its emblem. He hoped that the successful application of his system to , with its inescapable conventionality, would demonstrate the universality of his methodology. In his travels throughout the world with the Moscow Arts Theater, Stanislovsky earned international acclaim as an actor, director, and coach. Like all pioneering thinkers however, Stanislavski stood on the shoulders of giants. His thoroughness and his preoccupation with all aspects of a production came to distinguish him from other members of the Alekseyev Circle, and he gradually became its central figure. These trips were incredibly exciting and filled everyone with joy.
In City, The adapted many of his ideas to their use. In such a case, an actor not only understands his part, but also feels it, and that is the most important thing in creative work on the stage. Makers of Modern Theatre: An Introduction. Constantin Stanislavsky The Russian actor and director Constantin Stanislavsky 1863-1938 originated a system of acting. Systems of Rehearsal: Stanislavsky, Brecht, Grotowski and Brook. His deep interests resides in analyzing the qualities of human behaviour which were meant to give the actor an awareness about how one should act and react, so as to leave an impact on the viewer. An indication of the success of his system was the emergence from his training methods of all the best Russian actors of the early 20th century.
Fighting against the artificial and highly stylized theatrical conventions of the late 19th century, Stanislavsky sought instead the reproduction of authentic emotions at every performance. We will updated soon about parents. Among his collaborators were the writers Tolstoy and Anton Chekhov. His system resulted from a persistent struggle to remove the blocks he encountered. This is why personal experiences are important as they possess what we have felt in the past, present and future. The theater's subsequent production of The Seagull was a landmark achievement and reignited the career of its writer , who went on to craft plays specifically for the company.
Magarshack, David, Stanislavsky: a life, Boston: Faber and Faber, 1986. Original edition published in 1988. Alexander Pushkin's The Miserly Knight. He was born into the family of industrialist and factory owner Sergei Vladimirovich Alekseiev and was one of his ten children. Of Polish origin, it suggested humble status and was unlikely to be associated with one of Moscow's most eminent bourgeois families.
It was famously known for unique composition of words and metaphors. Through such an image you will discover all the whole range of notes you need. Writing an autobiography is a huge effort and requires patience to put the facts and experiences in a proper manner. Masters of the Stage: British Acting Teachers Talk About Their Craft. The prospect of becoming a professional actor was taboo for someone of his social class; actors had an even lower social status in Russia than in the rest of Europe, having only recently been serfs and the property of the nobility. Stanislavski Hijo de un industrial apasionado por el teatro y aficionado a organizar en su propia casa espectáculos en los que participaba toda la familia, Konstantin Stanislavski se dedicó al teatro desde muy joven; pronto organizó compañías de aficionados la más importante fue la Sociedad del Arte y Literatura, fundada en 1888 , de las que fue animador, director y actor principal. Stanislavski worked with his Opera Studio in the two rehearsal rooms of his house on Carriage Row prior to his eviction in March 1921.

It had been a while since I'd watched "The Last Lecture: Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams" by the late Dr. Randy Pausch, but I got the opportunity, and the pleasure, earlier this week. It's always time well spent. I would encourage everyone to view it at least once and, even more importantly, have your children watch it as well.
Carnegie Mellon University runs a lecture series in which faculty is invited to give a presentation as though it was their "last lecture". On September 18, 2007, Dr. Pausch, a Computer Science Professor who had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer months earlier, in his own words "nailed the venue". He passed away on July 25, 2008.

After several months of planning, Penny Norton and I signed a contract last week with Routledge for a new PR text book to be published in February 2020.
Provisionally titled 'Best Practice in Property and Construction PR', it will be an edited compilation of essays on PR, communications and reputation management, each covering a specific aspect of the sector.
We are looking for contributing authors and would really welcome your input.
So if you have an interest in getting published and could offer best practice advice and case studies in property and construction PR, please do get in touch as soon as possible.
If you are interested in contributing content which is not listed here, please let us know. We all know how diverse this industry is.
Contributors will need to be able to demonstrate their experience in their specific subject through case studies, and should either work (or have worked) for recognisable companies within the specific sector (whether in-house or as a consultant).
We can provide further support, such as a suggested structure for a chapter.
Should you, a client or a colleague really wish to put your name to a chapter but lack the time or skills to write it, Penny is also providing a ghost-writing service (based on an interview and provision of case studies).
If you're interested in contributing a chapter, please contact Penny as soon as possible.
We will ask you to complete a short questionnaire, which must be returned by 1 April 2019. Completed chapters must be received by 30 June 2019.
The CIPR and property and construction industry organisations have told the publishers that this is a much-needed book.
We believe it offers numerous benefits to the individual contributors and their companies, and to the sector at large.
Once published, the book will be promoted by the CIPR, by Routledge's marketing team and by us too through events, media coverage, social media and other means. Additionally, Routledge is keen to include companies' logos on the cover.
So please do pass this link on to anyone you think might be interested. Thank you!

Daniel "Koo Nimo" Amponsah, is an Asante "living legend" who performs the old and the new traditions of Ghana. His music brings to life the meaning of the Sankofa image, a symbolic bird of Asante, looking backwards with one foot forward to the future. Koo Nimo's musical background began at age nineteen when he was teaching drumming, guitar and brass band music in his village of Foase. Trained in chemistry, he worked at the University of Science and Technology in Kumasi as chief laboratory technician until his retirement in 1998. During this time he was an active musician and public figure, and was also the first Ghanaian to produce a compact disc of his music, Osabarima. In 1957, the year of Ghana's independence, he formed "Adadam Agofomma" (Going Back to Roots) ensemble. He was the president of the Musicians Union for 10 years and became a recipient of the Grand Medal for Lifetime Service to Ghana from the Head of State. Koo Nimo has been a source of inspiration for many musicians through the force of his character and his creative blend of Ghanaian musical forms, Spanish guitar style, and jazz chord progressions. He has performed internationally, at Lincoln Center in New York, Australia, U.S. and Britain. He can also be seen in several documentaries: "Crossing Over", "Repercussions" and the latest, "Dr. Gates's Travels through Africa".

State supported living center hosts pumpkin carving to boost morale
Sarah Nightingale
A glamorous mermaid found herself washed up on the shore of the Lubbock State Supported Living Center Friday morning.
The mermaid, adorned with a shell bikini and fish earrings, was one of 21 decorated pumpkins entered into a competition at the center.
Staff in many departments teamed up to create ghosts, witches, mummies and other scenes.
The event was the center's second pumpkin-decorating competition. Employees competed for a first place prize of a department pizza party.
Second and third place prizes were a large cake or a treat tray, said Michelle Coe, director of community relations.
The center, previously called the Lubbock State School, hosted the competition last year to boost staff morale, Coe said.
Low-paying entry-level positions, understaffing, and the demands of caring for mentally disabled people have resulted in high turnover, reports from the Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services show.
"Initially, we did this to boost teamwork among staff," Coe said. "It's back by popular demand because they wanted it so much."
While administrators judged the competition last year, community volunteers rated pumpkins scattered all over campus Friday.
Elroy Carson, president of the center's Volunteer Council, and four Lubbock Chamber of Commerce ambassadors gave each pumpkin a score between one and 10. The scores were tallied to name the winning team.
It was no easy task, the judges said. Building on last year's competition, some ambitious teams got creative to make the best pieces on display.
"I think we have a pretty good chance this year," said Phyllis Mims, a home team leader. Her department created a grotto containing a dramatic scene from the movie Nightmare of Elm Street - later named the winning display.
"We got really into it," Mims said.
The winners weren't alone is transforming a whole area, though. Workshop staff created a spook house with an open grave scene. Staff and residents lined up peek into the room, gasping and squealing when they saw the grave.
"We did the lighting and we were going to get dry ice, but we couldn't get it this morning," said Johnny Harmon, an administrative assistant.
The competition's only rule was the pumpkins had to be decorated, not carved, Coe said. Pumpkins - big and tiny - and gourds were all fair game.
The mermaid, created by five file clerks, had a gourd head and body and a silky tail. She was surrounded by shells, starfish and a pirate ship.
"It's great to be able to do something together and be creative," said Ruth Lucero.
"Oscar the Grouchkin and Plaster Joe," created by the rehabilitation department, used materials and techniques from their workshop.
"We incorporated a lot of what we do into theses," said Stephanie Carrillo, a speech language pathologist.
Denny Rosser, a chamber ambassador with Pre-Paid Legal Services, said the team-building was a success.
"You can see all of the fun energy from the departments," he said. "They love this."

Many executives are unable to give well-formed instructions. Why, just do not lose too much time with appreciation. Shapely? Do not you know? Well, our brains respond to positive, well-formed sentences rather than negative signals. So give well-formed instructions to your staff using a first-person message. Learn to formulate positively.
For the positive formulation of instructions there are seven basic rules.
So not: "Tell your employees that the smoking breaks are getting out of hand and that I will not tolerate this anymore."
Better: "I want you to talk to your staff and ask them to reduce the number of smoke breaks."
So not: "By Friday, all orders must be done."
Better: "I wish from you that we complete all orders by Friday."
So not: "You should be a little friendlier to our customers."
Better: "I wish that you take a little more time for our customers."
So not: "You might show a little more interest in your work."
Better: "I wish that you take some more time to work."
So not: "You have to approach your employees a bit more."
Better: "I wish you to have regular employee appraisals."
So not: "You could easily contribute a little more to the success."
Better: "I wish you to take over the YX task."
Not like that: "At least you could say thanks to the employees."
Better: "I wish of you that you express thanks to all employees next Tuesday."
Conclusion: In any case, I would like you to take a few minutes each day in the future for well-formed instructions.

Q: Netty 4.x HTTP 1.1 pipelining support Does Netty support HTTP pipelining and if so, what classes should be used?
Doesn't seem to be anything about in the docs or examples and I know Typesafe guys are making a library with said support for Netty, but it's for an older Netty version at this time.

A: I believe this could be done following the logic made by Typesafe, adapting the code to Netty 4.X. However might be a good idea to look at HTTP2 support that could bring the very same ?

MLS Listings | Popular Searches | Need To Sell?
If you think the South Loop isn't a great place to call home in downtown Chicago, you must not be terribly familiar with all the positive qualities it has to offer. Located just south of the Loop and bounded by the Stevenson Expressway to the south, Congress Parkway to the north, Lake Michigan to the east and the Chicago River to the west, the South Loop is an impressive collection of urban housing options, cultural attractions, and well over 300 acres of parks and open green spaces, giving residents and potential home buyers everything they could possible want in a new place to call home and then some.
To start with, Chicago's Museum Campus occupies a spot on the South Loop's south east side, which of course means attractions like the Field Museum, Adler Planetarium, and the Shedd Aquarium are all just a short walk away from nearly any location within the neighborhood. Additionally, Grant Park and the lakefront are also only steps from any home, condo, or loft in the South Loop, providing locals with two of the best outdoor amenities in all of downtown Chicago. Imagine having quick and easy access to the lakefront trail, or having some of Chicago's best outdoor events and festivals basically right outside your front door each and every year! Is there really a better way to experience living in downtown Chicago?
Thinking of Selling Your South Loop Home or Condo?
Chicago's Gold Coast is one of the premier downtown neighborhoods to call home. But if you're thinking about a change of scenery, or maybe even just want to upgrade or downsize while still staying in the neighborhood, our Gold Coast real estate experts can help. To learn more about how we can get your Gold Coast home sold fast for the price you need in today's ultra competitive market, call us today at (312) 280-9600 and schedule a free no-obligation consultation to discuss your home selling needs, wants, and goals.
WANT TO SEARCH MORE SOUTH LOOP CONDO BUILDINGS?
Well, just to sweeten the deal, there's actually much more to the South Loop than just its attraction and outdoor amenities. In addition, those who live in the neighborhood have a pretty short commute to Chicago's central business district, with The Loop being located just a short train ride away via the CTA Red Line. Additionally, Solider Field is also just a short distance from most homes or condos for sale in the South Loop, making football season even more exciting that it already is here in the Windy City.
The South Loop real estate market is largely dominated by high-rise condos and stylish loft conversions that have an authentic urban and industrial feel. Of course given the South Loop's location, views from most condos in the neighborhood are among the best you'll find in the city, while the South Loop's rich warehouse and industrial history has provided the area with some of the coolest lofts you'll find on the Chicago real estate market. Townhomes have also become a pretty popular option to consider in the South Loop, but for more information about South Loop real estate or to schedule as showing for a property you'd like to see, give Gold Coast Realty a call today at (312) 280-9600!

Edinburgh Festivals
2020: The Year ahead in Theatre, by Joyce McMillan
Michael Gove, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster and the MP for Surrey Heath PIC: Jonathan Brady/PA Wire
Joyce McMillan
Published: 12:23 Wednesday 01 January 2020
An unexpected figure, the MP for Surrey Heath, looms large as Mystic McMillan looks into her crystal ball to see what's coming up for the next 12 months in Scottish theatre
January: The crystal ball clears, and shows an image of a shiny black door marked No. 10. Inside sits a man in Macbeth mode, at the pinnacle of his power, but still uneasy. "To be thus is nothing," he grunts. "But to be safely thus…." He thinks of Gove, who stabbed him so cruelly in the back in 2016, declaring him "unfit for office"; and he devises a plan. "Govey," he cries, "you grew up in Scotland. Here's a bag of taxpayers' loot, take it up there, bomb them with it, and don't come back until they're all true Brits. And don't forget the cultural types, they're the worst; tell them they're getting none of this unless they start talking properly, and sticking a Union Jack on all their branding."
February: Gove heads for Edinburgh, where he finds not only Dundee Rep's anti-racist Oor Wullie musical on tour, but five young women in cross-gender garb romping the Lyceum stage in an all-female version of Pride And Prejudice. He has to concede that this brilliant Tron Theatre show, hailed across the UK in 2019, is oddly true to the spirit of Jane Austen's comic masterpiece; but retreats to the British government's flashy new Scottish headquarters in the Canongate, to pen a memo saying that the whole place is in the grip of radical political correctness, and – what's worse – seems to be enjoying it.
March: Gove reluctantly attends a Lyceum performance of Brecht's Puntila And Her Man Matti, starring Elaine C Smith; and afterwards delivers a stern reproach to artistic director David Greig for encouraging the performance of classics in Scots voices. "Don't you know," he thunders, "that everyone in early 20th century Finland – and for that matter in ancient Rome and 19th century Russia – spoke with the accents of Westminster and Bayswater?" David Greig is a diplomatic man, and therefore does not comment on Gove's own famous accent, which – to put it politely – is neither fish, fowl, nor convincingly posh.
April: Gove rages over the advertising logo for the Dundee Rep/National Theatre of Scotland production of The Cheviot, The Stag, And The Black, Black Oil, which reads, "The people must own the land." But oddly, when Gove attends the show at the Pavilion in Glasgow, he forgets to feel angry, and finds himself joining in a rousing chorus of These Are My Mountains.
May: To Perth Theatre, where Gove watches Peter Arnott's fine monologue about the 1879 Tay Bridge disaster, The Signalman, performed by Tom McGovern. At the end, he finds himself weeping. "Strange how moving a Scots voice can be," he reflects, "when it's used appropriately;" but the wider story of the disaster – and about the danger of commissioning corner-cutting private companies to do a job that is vital to public wellbeing – is somewhat lost on him.
June: Summer. Wind and rain.
July: All Scottish theatre turns out for the premieres of two major plays by leading Scottish playwrights - John Byrne's musical Underwood Lane at the Tron, and David Greig's Adventures With The Painted People at Pitlochry. Gove is interested in Greig's story of the Pictish people who once inhabited Tayside; but even more exotic, to him, is Byrne's tale of a struggling skiffle band in 1950s Paisley, written in honour of the late Gerry Rafferty. Both theatres receive small wads of cash; Gove writes a memo saying this mission might be tougher than anticipated.
August: The Edinburgh International Festival announces that, as a leading global arts festival dedicated to the cause of peace, it cannot be doing with national flags of any stripe; so Gove spends August mooching aimlessly around the city. To his surprise, he enjoys Liz Lochhead's version of Medea, appearing in a big new National Theatre of Scotland/EIF co-production directed by Sir Michael Boyd, formerly of the Royal Shakespeare Company; Gove is smitten by the fabulous Glasgow-based actor and writer Adura Onashile, who plays the leading role.
September: Post-festival exhaustion, complicated by heartbreak; Gove takes a holiday in France.
October: Gove is back in Pitlochry for the world premiere of the National Theatre of Scotland/Pitlochry co-production Enough Of Him, a play about Joseph Knight, an 18th century African-born slave who lived in Perthshire, and fought for his freedom in the Scottish courts. Afterwards, Gove composes a sombre memo to Downing Street, saying that the play – by Edinburgh-based writer May Sumbwanyambe – is both very subversive and very good, and that this whole Scottish theatre business is too lively for comfort.
November: In the darkness of Glasgow's Merchant City, Gove's tweed cap can be seen among the crowd at a promenade performance of Adura Onashile's Ghosts, the National Theatre of Scotland's second show of the year to reflect on Scotland's historic links with the slave trade. The show finishes, the audience return to the Tron Bar; but Gove has vanished. The remains of the bag of cash are found on his desk in Edinburgh, along with a note saying "gone native;" in London, Boris Johnson smiles a secret smile, and considers his mission accomplished, for now.
December: All is quiet. But somewhere in eastern Scotland – maybe Kirkcaldy, or Arbroath – a previously unknown performer is spotted playing the daft laddie in the Christmas panto. Is it Jordan Young, on leave from the King's in Edinburgh? Or the ghost of the late, great Gerard Kelly? No – his accent is too strange for that. He looks happy, though, as he skips on stage shouting "hiya pals!" Happier, anyway, than the man in Downing Street; who has no-one to shout "behind you" when the next gaunt conspirator approaches with a knife, and has spent the year learning just how uneasily lies the head that wears the crown.

People over 75, important workers' turn
The developments came as the nation tried to launch a vaccination program that began only last week and has so far given initial shots to about 556,000 Americans, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The first shipments of the second COVID-19 vaccine approved in the US left a distribution center on Sunday. This has been a much-needed boost as the nation works to bring the coronavirus pandemic under control.
The trucks left the Olive Branch, Mississippi, factory near Memphis, Tennessee, carrying the vaccine developed by Moderna Inc. and the National Institutes of Health. The much-needed shots are expected to be handed in starting Monday, just three days after the Food and Drug Administration approves their emergency rollout.
In Louisville, Kentucky, UPS driver Todd Elble said his vaccine shipment was "the most important load I've pulled in a 37-year career." His parents contracted COVID-19 in November and his 78-year-old father has died. He said the family speculated that his father became infected while on a hunting trip with four other relatives to Wyoming and that some were still sick.
"I'll take the vaccine myself. I'll come first for my father – I'll tell you – and anyone else who should follow," he said. "I feel in my heart that everyone should to stop this." He added, "To bring that back, I feel like Dad was in the truck with me today."
Dr. Moncef Slaoui, the federal government's chief scientific advisor to vaccine distribution efforts, said on CNN's State of the Union that nearly 8 million doses will be distributed Monday, about 5.9 million of the Moderna vaccine and 2 million of the Pfizer Inc. vaccine. He said the first Moderna recordings should be made on Monday morning.
Also on Sunday, a committee of experts began to consider who should stand in line for early doses of the Moderna vaccine and the vaccine from Pfizer and BioNTech in Germany. Pfizer's shots were first sent out a week ago and used the next day to kick off the country's largest vaccination campaign.
Public health experts say the shots – and others in the pipeline – are the only way to stop a virus spreading wildly. Nationwide, an average of more than 219,000 people a day test the virus, which has killed over 316,000 in the United States and nearly 1.7 million people worldwide.
Slaoui also predicted the US will see "a sustained surge", with the possibility of a greater number of coronavirus cases due to Christmas gatherings.
"Unfortunately, I think it's getting worse," he said.
The Pfizer and Moderna recordings that have been shipped to date will almost all be sent to health professionals and nursing home residents in the next few weeks, based on the recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Vaccination Practices.
There won't be enough shots for the general population by spring, so cans will be rationed for at least the next few months. President-elect Joe Biden promised earlier this month to distribute 100 million doses in his first 100 days in office, and his candidate for surgeon general said Sunday that it was still a realistic goal.
But Vivek Murthy said on NBC's Meet the Press that it was more realistic to believe that it could be midsummer or early fall before coronavirus vaccines are available to the general population rather than late spring.
Murthy said Biden's team was working to make the footage available to those at lower risk by late spring, but that "everything went according to plan". "I think it's more realistic to assume that it might be closer to midsummer or early fall when this vaccine makes its way into the general population," Murthy said. "So we want to be optimistic, but we also want to be careful."
Meanwhile, Trump's surgeon-general Jerome Adams defended the government's handling of the Pfizer vaccine on Sunday for "misunderstandings" with states on Saturday, one day after the Army's general charge of receiving COVID-19 vaccines in the US Apologized about the number of doses to be administered had been delivered in the early stages of sales.
