Sixty-three million Americans who voted for Hillary Clinton are now disenfranchised
Op-ed: The final votes remain to be counted but Hillary Clinton got 2 million votes more than Donald Trump. She got 63 million and he got 61 million.
Sixty-one million people cast ballots for Trump.
And the Times and others say as more West Coast votes are counted her margin is likely to increase.
Hundreds of thousands of voter fraud were reported on Twitter but a Trump administration is unlikely to investigate. There also were stories of voter suppression.
In fact, Clinton has accused the FBI of winning the election for Trump with false accusations.
FBI Director "James Comey's announcement of a new inquiry into her use of email while secretary of state shortly before election day had stopped her campaign's momentum," Clinton told the BBC.
This same Comey blocked allegations of Russia intervening on Trump's side because it was too close to the election.
"The Russian government maintained contacts with members of Donald J. Trump's "immediate entourage" during the American presidential campaign," one of Russia's top diplomats said Thursday.
"There were contacts," Sergei A. Ryabkov, the deputy foreign minister, was quoted as saying by the Interfax news agency. "We continue to do this and have been doing this work during the election campaign," he said.
This is the fifth time the winner of the popular vote has lost because States voted in the Electoral College. In all five cases Democrats had the most votes.
While Trump has sought to be conciliatory, particularly on Obamacare, it remains to be seen whether the Republicans in the Senate and House will cooperate. And his base will soon be calling him a liar if he backs off.
Trump's "Trump University" fraud trial is still set to begin Nov. 28. The judge handling the case has refused to delay it but has suggested a settlement might be a good idea because the presidency is involved.
One again, Trump would be settling a lawsuit with money.
And when will be the public get to see his taxes. He may not be able to hide them once he is in the White House.
Trump Towers leads to High Rise
Op-ed: A movie that has not been released in theaters in the U.S. yet may tell us what to expect if Donald Trump is elected president. It is "High Rise," and it features British hunk Tom Hiddleston, better known as the characters Loki in the film Avengers and Jonathan Pine in The Night Manager.
If the Republicans get their payback on Hillary Clinton for helping impeach Richard Nixon, and many other acts they consider crimes, it is worth downloading High Rise to see what a class war would really be like.
Bloomberg Watergate Clinton
The film High Rise, released last year in Canada, was considered a highlight of the Toronto Film Festival.
"Biggest surprises of TIFF so far: "…that Ben Wheatley's High-Rise (Grade: B+) is something I genuinely dig. Wheatley's labyrinthine black comedy preserves the 1970s setting of J.G. Ballard's novel, linking its vision of a residential tower regressing into literal class warfare to the rise of Margaret Thatcher…"
Toronto Film Festival Reviews
For those who judge a movie by its cast, Jeremy Irons is the arch architect of the five towers, if that is a word. Hiddleston plays Thor's arch enemy in the Marvel series.
As in Les Miserables or the French Revolution itself, class warfare develops. This time between those on the top floor and those on the lower flowers.
The soundtrack, which ranges from Bach to Abba enhances the film.
It gets to the level of eating dogs to survive. Margaret Thatcher is quoted about how pure capitalism is the only answer. The police, apparently too busy with prison riots are only seen once. That is one cop.
J.G. Ballard, author of the book, written in 1975, said the architect of the towers "…without knowing it … had constructed a gigantic vertical zoo, its hundreds of cages stacked above each other. All the events of the past few months made sense if one realized that these brilliant and exotic creatures had learned to open the doors."
Amazon says: "When a class war erupts inside a luxurious apartment block, modern elevators become violent battlegrounds and cocktail parties degenerate into marauding attacks on "enemy" floors. In this visionary tale, human society slips into violent reverse as once-peaceful residents, driven by primal urges, re-create a world ruled by the laws of the jungle."
Fighting for canapés? Cake anyone?
Before the architect is shot by a journalist he had tried unsuccessfully to have lobotomized – he was the sanest man in the building -- we learned he planned four more towers like this one.
It is the kind of thing you might hear from Trump. The residents are selected to get only certain types. At the close he realized he had chosen too many types.
Trust what Trump says
Op-ed: Reports are circulating that Donald Trump has told the New York Times in private not to worry about his racist, xenophobic, anti-abortion, anti-gay statements. The word is that he is just responding to what his supporters want to hear.
Using his own logic then, he needs to be asked whether he might be impeached if elected when his supporters realize he used them.
That could bring some unnamed vice-president to power who would do what Trump has promised to do.
It is the same logic he uses every day of his campaign when he says Hillary Clinton might not be able to service because she will be indicted in her "email scandal."
She has been under investigation for an entire year with no indictment.
Of course Trump has been under fire for three years for his "Trump University Scandal" and may be forced to testify about fraud allegations later this year.
TV networks, meanwhile, claim Trump is the choice of a majority of Republicans, based on what has been seen in primaries and caucuses.
Polling expert Nate Silver said today that "Trump has received only 34 per cent of the Republican vote, aggregated across all primaries and caucuses to have voted so far. He did not really improve on that figure on Super Tuesday; Trump had a combined 33 percent of the vote through the first four states (Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Nevada); he got 34 percent in Super Tuesday states themselves."
Do Trump supporters represent what the majority of Americans believe. Polls are constantly being used to support this view.
But the same kinds of polls show that a majority of Americans support causes rejected by these people: gay and transgender rights, abortion rights, women's rights, high minimum wages and more.
Trump supporters say this is merely the view of Hollywood.
In my experience art has often represented where a country is headed, both in the U.S. and in countries I covered as a journalist around the world.
South Africa was a classic example. I often watched plays and heard music that I knew was going to tear apartheid down. I wondered why the government allowed it.
I later felt that it wasn't so much that they allowed, in some cases people were jailed and banned, but that they knew they couldn't stop it. To try too hard would cause some of their best people to leave the country. They wanted more than just servants and swimming pools.
It was impossible for me to watch this year's Oscars without seeing that the people who run the art world have decided to support human rights. This is not new. Give them an inch and they will take a mile.
These films, plays and music make money. That is the bottom line.
Tuesday's results caused a US based surge in google searches for how to move to Canada

Home Private Equity News & Analysis More than half of single-family offices invest in PE – study
More than half of single-family offices invest in PE – study
Of the majority of family offices that invest in the asset class, 40% engage in direct investing, according to a survey of 162 single-family offices by financial technology platform iCapital Network.
Annabelle Ju
More than half of single-family offices invest in private equity, with 40 percent of them doing it directly and some with allocations of more than 50 percent of their portfolio.
Their exposure to private equity is mainly driven by the asset class' potential to achieve superior investment performance, according to iCapital Network, a financial technology platform linking high net worth investment capital with private investment opportunities that surveyed 162 family offices.
"It's significant how big some of the allocations really were," iCapital managing partner Lawrence Calcano told Private Equity International. "We were surprised to see that in 8.4 percent of the cases, family offices had in excess of 50 percent allocation [to private equity]."
More than half of the single-family offices currently investing in private equity said they plan on increasing their allocation, and about a third that are not investing said they expect to start in the next two years.
One reason family offices are diving into the asset class is their familiarity with how private equity works: a lot of their wealth comes from running private family businesses, similar to how PE firms operate their portfolio companies, Calcano said. And given the importance of returns, the relative illiquidity of private equity compared with other assets is not an obstacle to invest: they understand the compensation for illiquidity, he added.
"One of the observations we made coming out of this research is that, right now, there are more than 130,000 private companies with revenue of over $25 million. In an environment where it's hard to find growth, private equity provides opportunities to grow in your investment portfolio, particularly for those who can tolerate illiquidity," Calcano said.
About 70 percent of the respondents said their PE fund investments outperformed others, and almost three-quarters of respondents said direct investments produced better returns than their traditional portfolio.
"Anecdotally, we know there's significant amount of interest in not only finding great funds but also direct PE investments. Our sense is that's probably going to grow based on what we're hearing from people in terms of their interest in deploying capital," Calcano said.
iCapital concluded its report by suggesting that wealth advisors should consider offering "access to high-quality private equity funds and direct investments in order to compete effectively."
The report was based on data collected from 162 single-family offices with an average net worth of $918 million and investable assets of about $400 million. Over 50 percent of those surveyed were from the US, about one-fifth in Europe and Asia, and less than 10 percent in South America.
MSD Capital, a family office exclusively formed to manage capital of Michael Dell and his family, is one of three buyers in the $67 billion deal to buy EMC. It expects to raise PE allocation and said a third-party fund is a "possibility for the future," as reported by PEI.

I love, love, love Hummus. Whether it is spreading it on a sandwich, or dipping a pretzel in it, we always have a tub of it in our fridge. Yet, I have to admit, I have never cooked with it. So when Heluva Good! Hummus reached out to see if I would share a sponsored post, I thought it was a great time to expand my hummus repertoire, and share some fun hummus-based recipes.
Heluva Good! Hummus launched in the fall of 2015. Although you may know the brand like I do, from their yummy dips. As a brand fan already, I was excited to see if their Hummus was as scrumptious as their dips. In my opinion, they nailed it with the consistency (not gritty) and the right balance of the hummus flavor and the flavor additions. It definitely lives up to the 'Good' in the name!
With the dynamic flavors and the great consistency of the Heluva Good! Hummus, I wanted to add it to a variety of recipes to show that hummus is more than just for pretzels.
I had requirements in my recipe research: the recipe with hummus had to be easy to make, be a meal that the kids would eat, and the ingredients in the recipe had to be simple. Then I wanted a variety: salad and soup, pizza and pasta and more.
So here are the hummus recipes that we found, used and loved!
In a small bowl, combine 8 thinly sliced black and/or green olives, one thinly sliced green pepper, one diced or cut tomato, 1/2 of a thinly sliced red onion, 2 Tsp oregano leaves, 4 Tbsp. olive oil, salt and pepper to taste, for a veggie mix. Then divide 1 cup of Heluva Good! Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, and spread evenly over a 4 pieces of flatbread or naan bread. Then divide the veggie mix and spread evenly over each piece of bread. Sprinkle each with Feta Cheese and serve immediately.
Cook 1/2 of a chopped red onion in olive oil until softened in a skillet. Then mix the onions with 1 lb. uncooked ground beef, 1/2 cup of Heluva Good! Horseradish Hummus, and about 2 Tbsp. finely chopped parsley if desired. Shape into burger patties, then cook. Once it is cooked the way you want; serve on a toasted brioche bun with lettuce, tomatoes, and more Heluva Good! horseradish hummus!
Perfect for when you want something light or just need a side dish. Increase the ingredients if you want it to be more of a meal. Whisk together 1/3 cup orange juice, 2 Tbsp. original Heluva Good! Hummus, and 2 Tbsp. olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss the dressing into a pound of romaine hearts, 1/2 sliced red onion, 1 cup quartered cherry tomatoes, and any other add-ons like crumbled bacon, mushrooms and/or cucumbers.
This is one of those recipes that work for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Take 4 english muffins and split them in half to create 8 open faced slices. Toast each. While they are toasting, cook spinach and mushrooms in a skillet with a bit of olive oil. Once cooked, place the toasted english muffins on a cookie sheet, spread the hummus flavor of choice hummus on each, place some of the spinach/mushroom mixture on top, and top with a spoonful of shredded mozzarella cheese. Broil until the cheese starts to bubble. Add a cooked egg to the top if desired. Then serve!
Make any pasta you would like: brown rice, quinoa, shells, ziti, or spaghetti. Cook separately your favorite ingredients, like diced zucchini, sliced mushrooms, and peas. Also mix together 1/2 cup chicken broth with 1 cup of original Heluva Good! Hummus. Mix the hummus sauce into the pasta and veggie mix. Serve immediately.
One other notable I wanted to share, but does require more culinary skills, is a Mushroom Hummus Soup recipe from the Food Network. Yum!


1. Heat broiler. Place peppers, cut side down, on broiler pan. Place shallots and garlic around peppers. Bring large pot lightly salted water to boiling for pasta.
2. Broil vegetables 4 inches from heat for 10 to 12 minutes or until charred and tender-crisp. Let cool. When cool enough to handle, peel. Dice 2 pepper halves and place in large pasta bowl.
3. Combine remaining pepper, shallots, garlic, almonds, Parmesan, vinegar, honey, salt and pepper in food processor or blender. Whirl until smooth. Add sour cream. Whirl just until blended. Transfer to large serving bowl.
4. Meanwhile, cook pasta in boiling water according to package directions until firm but tender. Drain well. Add to red pepper mixture in bowl; toss to mix. Serve hot. Makes 6 servings.

Car Movie Cult Classic: Two Lane Blacktop & The Restored '55 Chevy
By Lauren Camille March 15, 2013
Starting from the left: the '55 on the left was used to film the interior shots, the middle car was used to film the exterior scenes (was also used in American Graffiti) and the GTO raps up the line-up. A third '55 Chevy was built as a stunt car, but it was destroyed during its use in American Graffiti. Photo: Two-Lane Blacktop Museum
When it comes to automotive cult classics most gear heads will agree that the 70's film Two-Lane Blacktop and the iconic '55 Chevy deserve recognition. The basic premise of the film is a cross-country race between the iconic '55 Chevy and a '70 GTO that concludes in Washington, D.C. where the winner takes the loser's car.
Throughout the journey the driver, played by James Taylor and the mechanic, played by Dennis Wilson, earn money to complete the race against the GTO by racing the '55 against anyone willing to take the challenge. Like most iconic movie cars, multiple vehicles were used to film Two-Lane Blacktop and thanks to diehards at the Two-Lane Blacktop Online Museum it is possible to follow the trail of the cars used in the film.
The main image on their site was shot prior to filming on the Universal Studios back lot; three cars were used to film the scenes. Two '55 Chevys and of course the '70 GTO. Two of the three '55 Chevys survived the filming and have been restored; the '55 used to film the exterior shots has been restored to its proper appearance and the interior car was revamped as a show car after its service in American Graffiti.
Unfortunately, the third '55 (the stunt car for this film) has almost certainly been recycled after meeting its demise by a crusher following the crash scene in American Graffiti. For those interested in film history and '55 Chevy's, this site offers exclusive information that should make most gear heads salivate.
One of the highlights of the museum was the reunion between the restored car (as the site calls it "TLB" for Two Lane Blacktop) '55 Chevy and James Taylor at a benefit for the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
The current owner and mastermind behind the site found out about benefit, and that the film would be shown as part of the fundraiser. He contacted the editor at James Taylor Online to see if there was any interest in displaying the actual car. Taylor was interested in seeing the car again and the rest is history along with a really amazing picture of Taylor and the '55.
Photo: Two-Lane Blacktop Museum
The museum encompasses the history of the car starting from the pre-filming still image all the way through the restoration of the car and its present activities.
The car used to film the exterior shots was fitted with camera rigging and the current owner has managed to track down a wealth of still images of the car and the camera crew hard at work. Eventually the car was sold and the first new owner (not the studio) brought the car to Canada where it was repainted in the '70's.
In the '80's the car underwent further modifications that resulted in a different appearance, thanks to gloss black paint.
In 2001 the current owner completed diligent research and decided to take on the challenge of bringing the '55 back to Two-Lane Blacktop condition. At the conclusion of 5-years worth of restoration the '55 was nearly complete with the exception of a couple of parts.
The devil is in the details and the museum provides detailed information surrounding the restoration story.

Finding a bargain Italian property and turning it into your dream home – or a profitable holiday rental – is something many people dream of. But it's not always easy to do, especially if you've never bought property in Italy before.
We recently shared a list of expert tips on renovating Italian properties but of course, you'll have to find a house to renovate first.
So where exactly do you start? We asked local property experts to weigh in with their advice.
The first task is to pinpoint a region depending on your requirements.
"Depending on your budget and the kind of property you're looking for, you could opt for a countryside location with many farmhouses, or for an apartment or palazzo in one of the many old town centres that dot the peninsula," says Simone Rossi, Managing Director at Italian property portal Gate-away.com, "whether of small villages or major cities like Florence."
But huge regional differences exist.
Instead, he recommends looking south.
"Just think of Basilicata or Molise, where you can choose from a wide range of housing solutions to be restored, in marvellous scenery, in less touristy areas," he says.
"And keep an eye on Abruzzo, which is growing in popularity and has plenty of countryside houses to restore which are quite affordable," he adds.
He says the region has homes to suit all budgets and tastes.
These homes appeal to "the more adventurous buyer" and "anyone wanting a full immersion into traditional Italian life", he says, considering that few people locally speak English.
But if you've got your heart set on the north of Italy, those regions shouldn't be overlooked.
As one reader points out, there are corners of picturesque Piemonte where bargain renovation properties can still be found.
"I think that in our area there are still good prices to be found for fixer-upper houses," says Toni Hilton, a reader who has restructured several properties in Monferrato, Piemonte, where the main draw is the spectacular landscape.
"I think a lot of houses in poor state have come on the market in recent years, as elderly owners have died. Families don't want, or don't have the means to restructure them," she explains.
Some houses, she adds, are even priced symbolically at less than 10,000. However the cost of buying a house, usually around 5,000, should be factored in too.
While most property searches are centred on online property websites and portals, Edwards says the best thing to do once you've found an area you love is to get to know it extremely well. Walk around, talk to people, and ask about properties for sale.
"Talk with people who know the area, or live in the area you are considering. Better still if you can find foreigners who bought and restored a ruin," he says.
If you're living outside of Italy, he says "a test visit to areas you are drawn to" is essential.
"Check for local events or speakers who may be discussing real estate or renovation," he says.
Hilton points out that not all houses are worth investing in, and that in her area at least, location is the biggest factor to consider.
"The local regulations, restrictions, licensing and government by-laws" should all be investigated before putting in any offers or getting too carried away with grand plans for restoration.
And Rossi says expert opinions can help uncover hidden treasures, too.

I believe that. Every word of it with all of my heart.
But what about those who aren't healed? What about those who live righteous lives and are still sick? Sin causes sickness, but not all sickness is caused by sin. Demonic power causes sickness, but not all sickness is caused by demonic power. Doubt prevents healing, but not all delayed healing is because of doubt.
Sometimes, the righteous and the faith-filled succumb to sickness. So how does one reconcile the truth that it is God's will to heal with the reality that some aren't yet healed?
The answer is logically consistent with scripture but not emotionally persuasive. I mean that it's difficult for some to accept. Quite simply, the reconciliation for this apparent contradiction is God's timing. Trust in the sovereign timing of God is the key to perfect faith.
We see an example of God's timing for healing in Acts chapter three.
The man is later healed by God's power through Peter and John.
But let's examine that scripture for a moment. The scripture tells us that "a man lame from birth was being carried in." Now think about that. He's referred to as a "man", not a boy. So he's been there for several years. The scripture also tells us that he was brought to the temple "each day". So for several years, this man was begging at the gate of the temple.
Do you know who else frequented the temple and often passed by that gate where the man begged? Jesus.
So here's my question: if Jesus passed by that man so often, why wasn't the man healed? Why did the man have to wait until Peter and John arrived in order to be healed? The answer is simply God's timing.
There will be, for every sick believer, a glorious moment of healing. Even if one has to wait until this vapor of a life has dissipated, healing will come in eternity.
Knowing that God is sovereign and faithful to His Word, I pray for every sick person to be healed "now" but trust the Lord if He decides to heal them "then" – on either side of eternity.
So have hope. Whether now in this moment, whether later upon this earth, or whether sometime in eternity, you will be made whole. Any moment can be your miracle moment. Trust in God's timing, but never lose hope that today could be your day!


Hey, today I've got a tip from WP Engine's founder Jason Cohen for you. It's related to how WordPress categories can help you improve the user experience on your website.
Yesterday evening I was sitting next to my girlfriend on our couch and was working on the new design for WP Mastery.
As I revised the existing contents, I noticed that I wasn't following this advice myself - even though I heard it first hand.
In his interview for the WP Summit, Jason gave a powerful tip on using WordPress' built-in category and posts functions for your content.
Instead of linking to an article on your website, why not link to WordPress categories or tags? This brings up not one article, but all your articles for a certain topic, and lets the visitor choose what's most interesting.
Before hearing this statement, I never thought of using categories and tags this way. Maybe, because WordPress doesn't make it easy to link to a category or tag.
First, you go to "Posts" -> "Categories". Hover over the category you want to link to, and then click on "View".
This will open up the public category archive, showing all your posts in that category.
Have you ever used WP categories or tags as links in your content?
P.S.: I'd love to welcome you to my free Facebook group I Use WordPress if you haven't joined already! It's a place where 400+ WordPress users hang out and help each other.

Ghanaian British Architect David Adjaye Awarded Knighthood Today
Renowned architect David Adjaye has been awarded with a Knighthood for his service to architecture. The investiture ceremony was performed by Prince William today.
Adjaye was born in Tanzania to Ghanaian parents. In 1994, he set up his first office, where his ingenious use of materials and his sculptural ability established him as an architect with an artist's sensibility and vision.
He reformed his studio as Adjaye Associates in 2000 and immediately won several prestigious commissions all around the world.
Adjaye Associates now has offices in London and New York, with projects throughout the world. These include the Aishti Foundation shopping and cultural complex in Beirut (2015), the Alara concept store in Lagos (2014), and a new headquarters building for the International Finance Corporation in Dakar.
In September 2016, the architect celebrated his 50th birthday and completed the largest project in his career to date – the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of African American History & Culture on Washington DC's National Mall.
Adjaye has taught at the Royal College of Art, where he had previously studied, and at the Architectural Association School in London, and has held distinguished professorships at the universities of Pennsylvania, Yale and Princeton. He is currently the John C. Portman Design Critic in Architecture at Harvard.
David Adjaye said,
"I am truly honoured and humbled to receive a knighthood by Her Majesty the Queen for my contribution to architecture. I see this not as a personal celebration, but as a celebration of the vast potential – and responsibility – for architecture to effect positive social change. that we as architects have to bring something positive to the world. I am proud to continue to work in service of this mission as a global cultural ambassador for the UK."
In an official statement The Central Chancery of the Orders of Knighthood at St. James's Palace said:
"David Adjaye is recognised for his contribution to architecture and design. He is one of the leading architects of his generation and a global cultural ambassador for the UK. His designs include the Nobel Peace Centre in Oslo in the shell of a disused railway station and the Whitechapel Idea Store in London where he also pioneered a new approach to the provision of information services as well as the Museum of Contemporary Art in Denver and numerous private commissions. His most recent major achievement was the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington DC."
The knighthood follows two previous royal awards received by David Adjaye – the 2016 Queen's Birthday Honours in October 2016 and an Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 2007.

The FMRIB Physics Group is at the heart of this effort to initiate a neurovascular imaging research programme, developing methods that aim to improve diagnosis and treatment of diseases such as stroke, atherosclerosis and arteriovenous malformation. We are focusing on the development of non-invasive techniques to visualise both blood supply to the brain and alterations in tissue metabolism that result from blood flow disruption.
One area of focus is the use of a technique called arterial spin labelling (ASL) to non-invasively "tag" the blood and subsequently visualise its passage through the arteries and into the brain tissue. We are developing methods which optimise the quantification of perfusion in the minimum possible time, allow simultaneous visualisation of blood flow within blood vessels and into the tissue, and separately identify the blood flow arising from individual vessels in the neck. This enables us to see whether narrowing or blockage of an artery is being compensated for by other arteries. We are also developing a related technique to allow the estimation of how much oxygen is being extracted from the blood in specific areas of the brain. Increased oxygen extraction can be indicative of tissue that is struggling to receive sufficient blood supply to meet its metabolic demand.
These approaches are being used in conjunction with a novel technique based on chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST), which gives information about the chemical environment within the brain tissue. We are primarily using this technique to estimate tissue pH, which shows promise as a sensitive marker of metabolic stress and therefore tissue at increased risk of damage.
Finally, we are also developing methods to efficiently remove the signal arising from blood, enabling much clearer images of the vessel walls to be obtained. This will aid characterisation of atherosclerotic plaques, which can lead to the formation of a blood clot. These blood clots can block the artery entirely, or break free and block a smaller artery downstream, potentially causing a stroke.
Below: Sophie Schaumann explains her work developing new ways to visualise blood vessels.


If you have upgraded your main drive with an Intel X24 SSD drive, your Mac may fail to boot after updating to OS X 10.8.3. Symptoms include hanging during startup, or a circle with a slash being displayed. The fix is to update the firmware on the Intel X24 SSD drive, which requires using a different computer to download an ISO image from Intel containing the latest X25 SSD firmware, burn this ISO to disc, then boot from the disc to apply. Depending on your Mac setup, this may require using an external SuperDrive if you don't have the required internal SuperDrive.
