The Silent One – Ivor Gurney
'The Silent One'
Who died on the wires, and hung there, one of two–
Who for his hours of life had chattered through
Infinite lovely chatter of Bucks accent:
Yet faced unbroken wires; stepped over, and went
A noble fool, faithful to his stripes– and ended.
But I weak, hungry, and willing only for the chance
Of line– to fight in the line, lay down under unbroken
Wires, and saw the flashes and kept unshaken,
Till the politest voice– a finicking accent, said:
'Do you think you might crawl through there: there's a hole.'
Darkness shot at: I smiled, as politely replied–
'I'm afraid not, Sir.' There was no hole no way to be seen,
Nothing but chance of death, after tearing of clothes.
Kept flat, and watched the darkness, hearing bullets whizzing–
And thought of music– and swore deep heart's deep oaths
(Polite to God) and retreated and came on again,
Again retreated– and a second time faced the screen.
In this poem a soldier takes cover while facing a barrier of uncut barbed wire in No-Man's land. Two men lie dead on the wire, one of whom the soldier knows. A commanding officer points a possible way through the wire, one that would mean certain death to the soldier; the soldier refuses to take it.
The Silent One: The title refers first to the man dead lying on the wires— his silence obviously indicating his death. This is an example of metonymy— where one word is substituted for another that it suggests. It is perhaps unsurprising that Gurney, a composer, associates silence with death. Without wanting to see Gurney and his poetry simply through his other career as a musician, 'The Silent One' is very aware of what can (or can't) be heard: of sounds, of speaking, and of silence.
STRUCTURE: The structure of 'The Silent One' is only partly organized according to rhyme: it begins with two rhyming couplets, but the end-rhyme thereafter is deliberately imperfect and sporadic. "Unbroken" and "unshaken" near-rhyme. 'Seen' weakly rhymes with the second unaccented syllable of "whizzing", but does rhyme with 'screen' in the last line. In the midst of these half-rhymes "clothes" and "oaths", either rhyme or half-rhyme, depending on how you read the poem.
The reason for the weakness of the end-rhyming in 'The Silent One' is, I think, because so much is going on within the lines themselves: you can find words and phrases repeated throughout the poem in quite a complicated way. We find "wires" and "unbroken wires" (twice), "chatter" and "chattered"; "accent", "darkness", "line", "no", "retreated" and "again" repeated likewise. Why does Gurney do this? Perhaps because this poem is written in a colloquial style and, in the manner of everyday speech, parenthetical. What I mean by 'parenthetical' is to say that the poem contains lots of little asides, just as everyday speech has: and the extensive use of punctuation within the line (dashes, colons, semi-colons and brackets) designates the speaker's leaps to other thoughts or linked observations. This creates a confidential and intimate air to the poem— which contains, suitably enough, a startling and frank admission— an informality perhaps at odds with a strong use of end-rhyme.
"Who died on the wires…": The poem begins, unusually, as if running on from the title. The wire, of course, is barbed wire, used massively across Europe during the Great War as a defence on the Western Front (for illustration, see the thickets of barbed wire which I use as the banner for this site). The use of barbed wire is representative of the fact that for much of the First World War, armies were defending territory in a static manner. Barbed wire impeded the approach of attackers; many of the soldiers of both sides died collapsed and died on the wires (read more about the use of barbed wire in the Great War, here).
"Who… had chattered through / infinite lovely chatter of Bucks accent:": the speaker, a soldier, knows the dead man facing him on the wires. The intimacy of his observation— referring to the man's "hours of life" and "infinite lovely chatter"— contrasts powerfully with the directness of Gurney's description of his comrade's fate. Note the reference to the man's Buckinghamshire accent as a kind of symbol of his humanity: there is again a strong contrast to be made here between the musicality of his voice and his silence in death.
"Yet faced unbroken wires;": Before an attack, a major purpose of shelling was to break up the barbed wire defences of the enemy, and so clear the way for an assault. Teams of men would also be sent into No-Man's Land to clear the wire. These attempts were often unsuccessful and to be entangled in or slowed by barbed wire in No-Man's land was to be a sitting duck for enemy gunfire. The use of colons and semi-colons here draw the poem back to this fateful moment for the dead officer: leaping backward in time within a sentence like this is called analepsis.
"stepped over, and went / A noble fool, faithful to his stripes— ": continuing his description of the man's journey into no-man's land, we find that he is an officer ("his stripes" refers to the number of chevrons on his uniform, showing his rank). He was, the speaker says, a "noble fool" for following the order to attack, which meant his death: the odds were clearly against his survival.
"and ended.": The conclusion of this sentence, Bernard Bergonzi writes, "matches anything in Sassoon and Owen in its terrible directness". The terseness of this ending is indeed shocking— though it is the rather indirect nature of the sentence that leads up to the conclusion (encompassing observations about the man's dead body, a reference to his "lovely chatter" and accent, and his part in the action before his death) that disarms the reader before this "direct" conclusion.
"But I weak, hungry and willing only for the chance of line— to fight in the line,": the exhaustion of the speaker is admitted. This documentary honesty is a feature of the poem. The soldier is "willing", despite his exhaustion, only because of the chance to fight. Again, the punctuation here is subtle: the dash seems to precede a necessary clarification or explanation that the soldier did indeed want to fight.
"But I… lay down under unbroken / Wires, and saw flashes and kept unshaken": the soldier lies down before the wire, out of enemy gunfire. Here we find another mention of the wires, and the fact that they are unbroken— this fact, and the different responses of soldiers to this fact, dominates the poem. The soldier manages to keep control of himself as the bombs explode nearby.
"Till the politest voice – a finicking accent, said:": this voice— the soldier's commanding officer's voice— contrasts strongly with that of the 'silent one'. The officer is detached, particular, and his accent is overly refined ("finicking") where the Bucks man's was expressive of his humanity.
"'Do you think you might crawl through there— there's a hole.'": the phrasing of the officer's observation— a direction offered in the form of a question— betrays hesitation. Nonetheless disobeying a lawful command from a superior officer could result in imprisonment.
"Darkness shot at: I smiled, as politely replied— 'I'm afraid not, Sir.'": the soldier's refusal to follow the officer's direction here is the dramatic heart of the poem. While this describes a grim scene, it is also possible to detect some of Gurney's ironic humour here: as soon as the officer points a way through, the crack of a rifle in the dark is heard. This irony is clearly felt by the soldier ("I smiled") who answers the officer in the same polite manner with which he was directed. There is something heroic about the soldier's rational anti-heroism: indeed, 'The Silent One' is one of the few great poems of the First World War that courts the same grim, fatalistic humour that is found in many of the common soldiers' songs (like 'The Old Barbed Wire': "If you want to find the old battalion / They're hanging on the old barbed wire").
"There was no hole… after tearing of clothes…": the soldier's observation regarding the impossibility of attacking through the 'hole' that the officer points to can be read here in a number of ways. Earnestly, as if in self-justification? With muted anger? Wearily, in disbelief at the uselessness of the order? With wry amusement as the situation is recalled? It is a mark of the clever balance of the poem that all these complex responses are plausible. In a sense, the soldier is responding to what would be, outside of war, an insane situation; to be directed towards what could almost certainly be a useless death. Gurney here humanely dramatises the fine line between the noble and foolish gesture.
"Kept flat, and watched the darkness…": Gurney describes the soldier's consequent actions in defiantly non-heroic terms: he lies prone, out of the line of fire.
"hearing bullets whizzing— / And thought of music— ": the soldier listens in the darkness. This acuteness of hearing, and the ability to listen to others and judge accurately what precisely is being suggested or said, is important in the poem. The reference to thoughts of music imply that this is a poem composed by Gurney from personal experience.
"swore deep heart's deep oaths / (Polite to God)": the confidential yet frank tone of the poem comes through strongly here. The little aside here, in parenthesis, reads here like a joke after a heartfelt confession of fear (I didn't blaspheme as I swore, he bluffly reassures the reader).
"…retreated and came on again, / Again retreated— and a second time faced the screen.": the vacillation here— the quite open use of the word 'retreated' here, and the return again and again to the wire— effectively describes the actions of a man facing an insurmountable object ("the screen" of wire). On this inconclusive and definitely non-heroic note— the wire halting forward movement— the poem appropriately ends.
[ANTHOLOGY NOTE: 'The Silent One' can be compared to any other poem that depicts or lauds heroism (or indeed condemns or describes cowardice) as it usefully injects a powerful and documentary sense of realism to the momentary dilemmas of the front line.]

With a population of more than seven million, Washington is the nation's thirteenth largest state. It is home to seven cities that have a population of 100,000 or more and dozens of charming towns and villages with populations of 10,000 or more. The state's largest cities include Seattle, Spokane, Tacoma, Vancouver, Bellevue, Kent, and Everett. While artists can find lively art and culture scenes in just about any city here, the most active scenes can be found in Washington's largest cities.
For starters, the state is home to one of the Pacific Northwest's most diverse collections of art venues. Seattle is home to a variety of must-see art museums such as Seattle Art Museum (SAM), Seattle Asian Art Museum (SAAM), Henry Art Gallery, and Frye Art Museum. The city's downtown area features a range of public art pieces, West Seattle hosts a monthly art walk, and you will find dozens of art centers here from Pratt Fine Arts Center to Seattle Creative Arts Center (SCAC).
Head to Tacoma, where you can take in the sights at the magnificent Museum of Glass or the Tacoma Art Museum and in Spokane, you will find the Northwest Museum of Arts & Culture. Vancouver is home to attractions such as Art on the Boulevard and Gallery 360, and Bellevue is home to the Bellevue Arts Museum. Head to Everett where you will find The Russell Day Gallery and Schack Art Center.
Washington's outstanding collection of art museums and galleries, the Office of Arts & Cultural Affairs in each city, the Washington State Arts Commission, and a large "working artists" community help keep the art and culture scene alive in The Evergreen State. Washington's academic institutions also play a vital role in helping the artist community prosper. The state is home to dozens of schools that offer all types of art and design programs from painting, sculpture, and drawing to animation, game design, and virtual technology. Just a few favorites include Cornish College of Arts, Seattle Pacific University, and DigiPen Institute of Technology.
Continue reading to learn more about Washington's best options for aspiring artists and some of the programs they have to offer.
Washington State is now home to 85 Title IV degree-granting institutions and possibly dozens of other schools that offer art and design programs. More than 380,000 students are enrolled in the state's Title IV colleges and universities, with thousands enrolled in art and design programs. The following are some of the best.
Washington is home to 43,500 professionals working in Arts, Design, Entertainment, Sports, and Media (ADESM) occupations. They earn an average annual salary of $52,930 per up slightly from $51,900 in 2009, when the state was home to 40,850 ADESM professionals. Of the 43,500 salaried ADESM professionals living in Washington today, 4,250 are graphic designers averaging $55,030 per year, nearly 2,000 are multimedia artists and animators averaging $75,740 per year, 680 are art directors earning an impressive $102,590 per year, and around 400 are fine artists averaging $71,200 per year. These salaries represent some of the nation's highest salaries for these creative occupations.
It is important to note that many artists and designers are self-employed, so it is safe to assume that the population of ADESM professionals in the state is much higher. These individuals typically earn more as well—especially in larger states and major cities. In fact, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the "Independent Artists, Writers, and Performers" 'industry' has the highest concentration of employment (not the highest level of employment) in ADESM occupations, and it is one of the highest paying industries for ADESM professionals.
Overall, independent artists average $70,620 per year. Independent artists working in animation average $75,150 per year and those working as art directors average $91,100 per year. Independent fine artists average $43,390 per year, and independent craft artists average $36,590 per year. Nationwide, the median annual wage for ADESM occupations was $43,100 in May 2014, which was higher than the median annual wage of $35,540 for all occupations.
The top five states with the highest employment levels for ADESM professionals are California, New York, Texas, Florida and Illinois. While Washington did not make the top five list, of the top ten metropolitan areas with the highest employment levels in this occupation, the Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, WA Metropolitan Division holds the number eight spot.

Do you have teeth that are misshapen, chipped or oddly spaced? You may be a candidate for dental bonding. This simple, yet effective, cosmetic dentistry treatment can change the shape of your teeth using composite resin. At Converse Dentistry, we offer cosmetic dental bonding for our patients that have small dental flaws they wish to change to improve their smile.
Dental bonding uses composite resin, a putty-like substance that can be applied to teeth and hardened for a durable new surface. Composite resin can be color-matched to your teeth, blending to create an almost invisible repair. This material can be used to cover discolorations, for white-fillings, or to change the shape of your teeth. The procedure can be done in one office visit and is painless.
One of the most common cosmetic purposes for dental bonding is repairing a tooth. A chipped tooth can be restored to its original shape by using composite resin to replace the lost tooth material. The resin is applied and shaped, then hardened using a specialized tool. Composite resin is durable and can last for decades, making it an affordable and long-lasting option for tooth repair.
Another common cosmetic dental issue is gaps between teeth. Dental bonding can be used to add tooth-colored material to the teeth on either side of the gap. With careful and precise formation, the gap is closed while keeping a natural appearance to the teeth.
If you have small dental flaws that you would like to hide, dental bonding may be an option. Converse Dentistry offers professional bonding to fix many common cosmetic issues. Most dental bonding procedures can be completed in one visit, changing the appearance of your smile. This is a quick, affordable solution to repair chipped teeth, cover discoloration, or close gaps in your smile. Contact us today.

The Importance of Representation
by Vivian Rosas
Growing up as a brown girl in a predominantly white community, I inevitably became quite whitewashed. I didn't really have many role models in pop culture or art that looked like me, so I gravitated towards white role models. When I started making art, these influences filtered into what I created. I remember at first the 'people' I drew were genderless characters, nondescript kind of creatures. Eventually, I progressed into drawing girls, but then I mostly drew girls who looked white. I remember my sister once called me out, asking why I drew only white skinny girls. I recall feeling shocked and defensive. I justified my work by explaining that my drawings were just black and white, no colour, so the girls were of no particular race or ethnicity. I see now that I was in complete denial. In my mind I thought I was drawing my representation, but in reality, I was drawing what I thought I was supposed to look like. Because of this, I came to the conclusion that I needed to start portraying more realistic femmes and non-binary folks of all walks/races/sizes because those are the people who make up the world I live in and want to see more of. Through this realisation I learned to love and accept what I look like and who I was deep down. I wanted to show that womyn could be soft, hard, strong, sexy, big, small, independent, and vulnerable. I was lucky enough to be brought up in a family that valued the independence and strength of a woman, so it was important for me to show all the facets of what we could embody as people. And with that, representation became an important theme in my work.
The goal of my work is to create imagery that expresses a sense of inclusiveness, and diversity. I'm inspired by femininity, strength, nature and the whimsical. As a Latinx artist, I try to put forward imagery that allows underrepresented communities to see themselves in my work. In working with many different methods, from painting to screen-printing, I can communicate positive images full of love and happiness, while also empowering a much broader audience. I usually start my process by sketching out ideas which often turn into digital compositions and illustrations. As of late these works have transcended to the public realm as I've had the opportunity to paint and design more murals.
I illustrated this piece for two dear friends who created a Facebook group called 'Femininjas'. The group was created as a positive, safe, inclusive, intersectional, anti-oppressive space for feminists to support one another, share information, and have friendly discussions. Early on, they approached me about making an image that could be used as a landing image, or logo. The idea was for me to print them on tote bags to sell to the group to raise money for different local organisations that support women, which we did successfully. We raised a couple hundred off a small print run. From the beginning, they were open to whatever I wanted to draw, and the idea of having a powerful image of a bunch of rad strong women and trans women kept coming up. We wanted them to look strong yet flirty, like they wouldn't take any bull from no one, and still look hella cute. I feel like this piece was a true shifting point for me as an artist, in which I really started to hone in on the type of work I wanted to put out into the world. I'd already been drawing girls for so long, but I hadn't fully realised the power my drawings could have. I remember the night we sold most of the tote bags, everyone was talking about which femininja they thought was most like them from the image. It was exciting to hear how they related to my design and really helped me see the importance of representation moving forward.
This piece was the next step in the evolution of my work within representation. My sister has always been a huge inspiration in the work I do. She exposed me to art at a young age and always pushed me in finding a unique voice as an artist of colour. Because of her, I grew up with a connection to different traditional religious and spiritual concepts and practices, such as Candomble and Santeria. This piece was created in honour of Women's Month for Illustrated Impact. I wanted to create a piece about the reclaiming of bruja culture nowadays as a means of empowerment for women of Afro or Latin backgrounds to represent their diverse background with a history of strong female spiritual healers. It was important to me as there is a strong lineage of spiritual women in my family. The amount of positive response I got from the brujx community was astounding and truly inspired me to continue making this kind of work.
As a true sign that I was on the right path, I was serendipitously contacted by the creative director for the National Domestic Workers Alliance after she had seen my Femininjas illustration on a tote bag in New York. I was asked to create illustrations for their ten-year anniversary gala. During the preliminary design process we discovered the best approach was to provide vibrant, engaging images that portrayed domestic workers in a positive and empowering light. They were super pleased with the final illustrations I delivered. Many of the workers were excited to see themselves reflected in imagery that made them feel proud of who they are.
Over the last few years I've had the chance to delve into the street art world from time to time. The city of Toronto has an initiative called StART Street Art Toronto, which I was lucky to be a part of last year. They provide an opportunity for local artists to create works of art on traffic signal boxes across the city. I proposed and ended up painting this design which was inspired by the young vibrant community of people I see in my everyday life in the city. It was such a fun experience working on the street to paint this one. Since it's on a main street corner, I had people coming up to me the whole time congratulating me on such a nice piece and thanking me for beautifying their city. A lot of people said how nice it was to have a piece that was so emblematic of the thriving community in that neighbourhood. It meant so much to me to know that the public really felt so positively about my work. I could see how happy it made people, and that really made me feel like I had done my job of creating something that they could relate to and feel happy seeing in their everyday lives. Now, I smile every time I bike past it, thinking how lucky I am to have left a lasting mark on the city that has made me who I am today.
This is one of favourite recent pieces. It was created for the book Becoming Dangerous about feminism, witchcraft, and resistance. I was contacted by Fiction & Feeling about creating an illustration inspired by one of the essays that was to be in the book. It would be part of the special edition of the book. I ended up choosing astrologer/writer and artist Jaliessa Sipress. She stood out to me from the other writers as she described herself as mixed race, and her essay sounded like it was going to touch on themes of generational influence and identity, both of which have become quite important to me as of late. I instantly felt a connection and wanted to portray her as the amazingly powerful woman she seemed to be. With this piece I once again had the opportunity to circle back to the theme of reclaiming power through brujeria. I loved getting to work on this one and used it as an opportunity to try and push my work in a different direction by adding textures and shadows to add depth and dimension. What I have found by working on all these pieces is that it has slowly shown my own growth and transformation within my own personal practice of reclamation as a woman of colour. I create what I want to see in the world, and it feels like it's finally becoming reality.

Embossed paper construction, light, audio.
3.2 x 4.3 x 2.5m approx.
shown at Canary Gallery, Auckland, New Zealand.
This installation sought to take the ephemeral atmospheric condition of a white out and to articulate its spatiality via the discipline of architecture. Its seemingly limitless condition becomes a failed geodesic construction, crystalline in appearance.
In a white out, the entire visual field is overwhelmed by whiteness via a process of light/information being diffused through each particle of water vapour. This denies a perspectival understanding of space and flattens depth-perception to an all-over field. Diffusion creates an over-presencing of information and a seeming blankness, yet one full of encoded meaning. The blankness of the white-out, threatening in the natural environment, in the gallery context becomes a space of potential where the magical and meditative can exist.
The overwhelming quantity of coded information and a concern for non-visual modes of navigation introduced the subtle manipulation of surface through repeated embossings of axonometric details taken from the site. A real-time sound piece took noises from in and around the gallery and manipulated them into an aural field of site specific textural "noise".

Jordan's King Assures Hamas On Palestinian State
Hamas boss Khaled Meshaal arrived on January 29 for the first visit to Jordan by a Hamas leader in 12 years, since he and four other members of the radical Palestinian group were expelled from Jordan in 1999.
Jordan's King Abdullah II has told visiting Hamas politburo chief Khaled Meshaal that Jordan will continue to support the creation of an independent Palestinian state on the 1967 lines with East Jerusalem as its capital.
Meshaal arrived on January 29 for the first visit to Jordan by a Hamas leader in 12 years, since he and four other members of the radical Palestinian group were expelled from Jordan in 1999, reportedly under U.S. and Israeli pressure.
He was accompanied during the meeting with King Abdullah by Qatari Crown Prince Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani, as Doha is mediating a rapprochement between Hamas and Jordan.

Robert Spencer: Charlottesville Shows How Dangerous the SPLC Really Is
By kdocburgess on August 17, 2017 • ( Leave a comment )
If, post-Charlottesville, the establishment media and the Left are going to embark upon a full-scale jihad (I wouldn't want to offend Leftists by calling it a "crusade") against neo-Nazis and white supremacists, they're going to catch in their net a great many legitimate groups if they rely on the SPLC to direct them to the "hate groups." My latest in PJ Media:
Charlottesville was a huge victory for the hard-Left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). And that's not good for anyone who loves freedom.
The driver of the car who plowed into a crowd of Leftist demonstrators in Charlottesville Saturday was a neo-Nazi, and on Monday President Trump denounced the Ku Klux Klan, "neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups," which he rightly said were "repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans."
Leftist media outlets are making all they can out of this opportunity to stigmatize and marginalize definitively all "hate groups," using the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) list of such groups. There's just one problem: the SPLC's "hate group" list is an irresponsible and libelous mélange of real hate groups with organizations that simply oppose the SPLC's hard-Left agenda.
The mainstream media has for years conferred an aura of legitimacy on the SPLC, treating this cynical gang of profiteers as if it were a neutral and reliable arbiter of what constitutes a "hate group" and what does not. Charlotte Allen wrote in The Weekly Standard last March:
It's hard to say what's worse: the outrageousness of the Southern Poverty Law Center in pinning the label "white nationalist" and "extremist" on anyone who bucks the prevailing politically correct narrative, or the credulity of the mainstream media in treating the SPLC as a neutral source.
Yet CNN did it again Monday in a story about how GoDaddy had revoked the account of a site called Daily Stormer in the wake of Charlottesville:
According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, "the Daily Stormer is dedicated to spreading anti-Semitism, neo-Nazism, and white nationalism, primarily through guttural hyperbole and epithet-laden stories about topics like alleged Jewish world control and black-on-white crime." The SPLC, which tracks hate groups, says the unapologetic hatred on the Daily Stormer — which also takes aim at African-Americans and opponents of President Donald Trump, for example — is a catalyst for division.
Meanwhile, the Huffington Post reminded us:
There are 917 hate groups currently operating across the U.S., according to the Southern Poverty Law Center.
And that's where the SPLC's hate group listing becomes insidious. If, post-Charlottesville, the establishment media and the Left are going to embark upon a full-scale jihad (I wouldn't want to offend Leftists by calling it a "crusade") against neo-Nazis and white supremacists, they're going to catch in their net a great many legitimate groups if they rely on the SPLC to direct them to the "hate groups."
Mark Krikorian of the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) wrote in the Washington Post in March:
Since 2007, the Southern Poverty Law Center has methodically added mainstream organizations critical of current immigration policy to its blacklist of "hate groups," including the Federation for American Immigration Reform, the Immigration Reform Law Institute and Californians for Population Stabilization, among others. In February, my own organization, the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), got its turn.
The wickedness of the SPLC's blacklist lies in the fact that it conflates groups that really do preach hatred, such as the Ku Klux Klan and Nation of Islam, with ones that simply do not share the SPLC's political preferences. The obvious goal is to marginalize the organizations in this second category by bullying reporters into avoiding them, scaring away writers and researchers from working for them, and limiting invitations for them to discuss their work.
Indeed. That is certainly the objective behind this hard-Left moneymaking and incitement machine's latest dossier on "Islamophobes," which says:
Before you book a spokesperson from an anti-Muslim extremist group or quote them in a story, research their background — detailed in this in-depth guide to 15 of the most visible anti-Muslim activists — and consider the consequences of giving them a platform.
They wish to silence those who speak honestly about the nature and magnitude of the jihad threat, blaming us for a supposed rise in "Islamophobia." If they really want to stamp out suspicion of Islam, of course, they will move against not us, but the likes of Omar Mateen, Syed Rizwan Farook, Tashfeen Malik, Nidal Malik Hasan, Mohammed Abdulazeez, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, and the myriad other Muslims who commit violence in the name of Islam and justify it by reference to Islamic teachings.
The SPLC doesn't do that because its objective is not really to stop "Islamophobia" at all, but to create the illusion of a powerful and moneyed network of "Islamophobes" whom can only be stopped if you write a check to the SPLC. That's what this is really all about.
In constructing this illusory edifice, the SPLC labeled me and fourteen others "anti-Muslim extremists."
We are, of course, no more "anti-Muslim" than foes of the Nazis were anti-German, but note the word "extremists." In what way are we "extremists"? Has anyone on the SPLC's hit list (and given the SPLC's track record of inciting violence against its targets, that is exactly what it is) ever blown anything or anyone up? Beheaded anyone? Boasted of our imminent conquest of any territory and the massacre of or enslavement of its people?
No, all we have done is speak critically about jihad terror and Sharia oppression. The SPLC is trying to further the libel that we are the other side of the coin, the non-Muslim bin Ladens and Awlakis. Until we commit any terror attacks or conspire with others to do so, however, the SPLC's libel is only that: a libel….

Finland is served by a national TETRA public safety radio network called VIRVE, which is used by a variety of public agencies — the Emergency Response Centre Agency, fire and rescue services, police, social services, the defence forces, border guards, customs, railway operators and vital businesses such as the energy sector. VIRVE is operated by Suomen Erillisverkot Group, a non-profit company owned by the Finnish government. The system has 41,000 subscribers and more than 1300 base stations spread across the nation. On an average day, VIRVE users make 150,000 group calls and send 7.5 million short data messages, the latter being far higher than for any other country.
As is the situation in many countries, Finland's public safety radio network provides reliable voice and short data services but not mobile broadband, while the country's commercial mobile broadband providers have good coverage in terms of population compared to many other countries. But commercial broadband does not quite cover everywhere and, importantly, it does not offer a mission-critical level of service (even though it is common for VIRVE users to benefit from commercial mobile broadband services, but not for mission-critical purposes). A solution to bridge the gap between mission-critical narrowband services and best-effort commercial broadband services has been the introduction of multi-access routes and connection-aware applications that adapt to the service available.
One option for the provision of mission-critical broadband would be for the government to build a dedicated nationwide network, but this would require substantial funding and bandwidth below 1 GHz. This is not possible, however, as commercial network operators hold all the licences for spectrum in the 700, 800 and 900 MHz bands. The situation, then, is that the commercial networks will have to satisfy the needs of public safety agencies. To that end, Erillisverkot is to become a virtual operator — later to be upgraded to service provider status — and will have public safety priority and pre-emption powers.
The planned new mobile broadband capability has become known as VIRVE 2.0. In 2018, the Finnish government, through the Ministry of Finance, set a completion date of the end of 2025 for VIRVE 2.0, although this will depend on the project beginning on time… and the project can't commence until it can be shown that it will actually meet the needs of public safety users.
To that end, Erillisverkot formed a Department of Mobile Technology Development and Strategy charged with managing the development and transition from TETRA to mobile broadband. As a first step, Erillisverkot issued a request for information (RFI) to industry to get an idea for possible solutions and to assess the challenges facing the project. That RFI, which was based upon a number of national goals, brought 11 responses from industry (which were followed up in workshop sessions with each respondent).
It must provide secure, 3GPP-based, mission-critical mobile broadband with wide geographic coverage, high availability, QPP functions and national roaming.
The service must be competitively priced in order for it to become the network of choice for PPDR users.
Erillisverkot will be the service operator, handling subscriber services and application development using open standards.
It must support mission-critical and non-mission-critical services based on different user needs, and eventually provide 3GPP MCPTT, MCVideo and MCData services.
Availability must be ensured through improved power supplies, transmission links and redundant network elements.
Security must be top of mind during and after development to ensure services and data are protected and unauthorised use prevented.
Interoperability is the aim for all Finnish public protection and disaster relief (PPDR) users, plus the system should enable them to work with other European PPDR mobile broadband users.
Access must be available to any 3GPP-based terminal, while Erillisverkot will be responsible for implementing a high-security terminal ecosystem.
A solution will be implemented to ease migration from TETRA, and there will be integration of other systems such as the ERICA national emergency response system.
It will be based on open 3GPP standards, with the minimum requirement being Release 15.
The system will be hardened in terms of supply and preparedness, eg, in terms of coverage, availability, usability, data security, and power resilience.
The June 2018 RFI was issued to industry in order for Finland's decision-makers to "gain a better understanding of the status of the related technologies and the network operators' ability to provide MC broadband services". The aim was to solicit information and "start a discussion with the industry without restrictions".
Responses were received from Finland's three main mobile operators as well as core network vendors, each of which provided valuable feedback and insights.
As far as the radio access network (RAN) is concerned, the main challenge relates to coverage, with current mobile networks having city areas with extensive coverage while many rural areas have sparse coverage. In contrast, the current VIRVE TETRA network has almost complete national coverage.
The MNOs said that the easiest implementation of mission-critical LTE services would come from using a single RAN, obviating the need for national roaming abilities. The MNOs also offered public–private partnership models under which all capacity would be available for PPDR if needed.
In terms of core architecture, the MNOs agreed that the two schemes proposed — multi-operator core network (MOCN) and full mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) — are currently the best options, adding that the choice should be left to the service operator. Core network vendors gave their blessing to both schemes in general, but had some arguments against each of them.
All the suppliers agreed that the MOCN model "would provide more control, independency and possibilities to provide self-managed and customised end-to-end services". However, this was also seen as adding complexity to the network set-up. In summary, most of the suppliers recommended using the MVNO model in the early stage of VIRVE 2.0 deployment.
In terms of estimated costs, the respondents found it difficult or impossible to put figures to their suggestions, given the present uncertainty over proposed network details. However, the "total costs of the MOCN model were thought to be higher, even if some thought that the MVNO model could be more costly for the MNOs to support". One respondent did give a range of figures for various options, but the aforementioned uncertainty meant the minimum and maximum cost estimates varied almost five-fold.
As far as mission-critical services go, most suppliers agreed that those functionalities "are not yet there", with many stating that it would be "quite a long time" before this functionality becomes available. The year 2022 was suggested by most as being a realistic time frame for when both RAN operators and core suppliers would have implemented Release 15.
When it comes to security, a number of pros and cons were raised, including the need to consider security standards and certification of supplier companies. The importance of having a security operations centre, as well as security cooperation between operators, vendors, national authorities and other interested parties, was also raised. All of the operators expressed their willingness to implement additional security measures where needed.
Erillisverkot's intention to establish a device ecosystem produced generally positive feedback, with some suppliers going so far as to say it would be essential for the project's success. The respondents recommended that standardised equipment be used as much as possible, while adding that different PPDR requirements would see the need for a variety of equipment types, eg, COTS devices, hybrid (LTE+TETRA) terminals, hardened smartphones and IoT devices. It was noted that operations would require support not just from the network, but also from the device chipsets, SIMs and applications.
New legislation assigning the Suomen Erillisverkot Group as the service operator for VIRVE 2.0 came into force at the beginning of February 2019. At the same time a Bill was passed mandating that radio access providers enable pre-emptive priority access over all their frequency licences as well as on all of their technologies, including 5G. A third important piece of legislation concerned national roaming — it will be mandatory for MNOs to support national roaming for VIRVE 2.0 subscribers. In practice, this will be valid for situations where the primary radio access service is not available either due to malfunction or lack of service coverage.
These legislative changes have enabled the procurement process to begin. On 13 March, public notices were issued for procurement of a RAN service for mission-critical users as well as for procurement of a 4G/5G core network. The aim is to issue a final RFT after the negotiations early in Q3 2019, leading to a decision by the end of this year.
Following that, the next stage will be to issue an RFI for a mission-critical application ecosystem in Q3 2019, followed by procurement of the mission-critical applications (planned to commence in Q1 2020).
Suomen Erillisverkot Group representatives — including Heikki Riippa, Senior Adviser in the Suomen Erillisverkot Oy Authority — will be attending Comms Connect Sydney in June, where they will provide an update of the VIRVE 2.0 process and a more detailed briefing of the findings so far, as well as the future roadmap.


Honda Insight entered the production line in the year 1999 however the vehicle was produced till 2006. After receiving a gap year, the production started again in 2008. The first generation was a three-door vehicle. The second generation was introduced in 2009 which had a hybrid platform also seen in Honda CR-Z.
The first generation Honda Insight was ranked as the most fuel efficient the United States Environmental Protection Agency certified gasoline-fueled vehicle with a highway rating of 25.9 km/l till 2014. Even though the second generation was more technologically advanced but it lacked fuel efficiency possibly because of increased size, weight and power. According to US Environmental Protection Agency, Honda Insight average fuel consumption is 18.18 km/l.
Honda Insight seen in Pakistan is the second generation five-door, five-passenger hatchback. The Honda Insight hybrid received pretty well fame in Pakistani market.
The hybrid vehicle is available in 1300cc and 1500cc with a standard CVT transmission.
A used Honda Insight couple of years old is going to cost you around PKR 15 Lacs however if you jump up to the next year and better version it's going to cost easily around PKR 18 Lacs.
Toyota Prius is a global competitor of Honda Insight. However, Toyota Prius sales figures are way above, not only in Pakistan but around the world. The design of Prius along with many other features makes it likeable amongst the people. The fuel economy of both the hybrid cars is good but when it comes to power Toyota Prius wins the heart. Car and Driver magazine performed a speed comparison of both the vehicles.
Honda Insight 2010 model achieved 0-60mph in 10.3 seconds whereas Toyota Prius 2010 achieved the same speed in 10.0 seconds, the quarter mile in 17.9 seconds at 78mph where for Prius it was 17.6 seconds at 79mph. The interior of both the vehicles is spacious however 2010 onwards Toyota Prius interior makes you feel as if you're seated on an aeroplane.
The overall resale value of the vehicle is not worth praising. As resale value plays a significant role during the purchase of a car, it serves as a setback when people think of buying Honda Insight. People consider Toyota Prius as a much better vehicle regarding speed, power, room and above all resale value. Good vehicles fail in Pakistani market because they cannot make a good resale value in the market.
There is the only second generation of Honda Insight present in the Pakistani market, however, narrowing down the popularity feature to versions, the most popular version is G. Vehicles like Honda Insight, which are not demanded so aggressively by the market are mostly found in the base grade versions only.

However, getting an agent is only half the battle and although my agent was convinced my book would sell, he couldn't get any publishers to buy it. That left me with a difficult choice – bin the book or publish it myself. In those days there wasn't any CreateSpace. So I set up my own publishing company, The Original Book Company, with myself, Neil Glass, as CEO, secretary, PR person, cleaner and general gofor. Then, to disguise that this book was a self publish, I invented a name for the author – David Craig.
As the book was quite controversial, I was fortunate enough to get some journalists writing articles about it and have sold about 8,000 copies.
Having a published book then made it easy for my agent to go to publishers, show them that David Craig was a successful published author and get a publisher for my next book and the next one and the one after that. Though, now the name David Craig was known, all my subsequent books were written by him, rather than by me.
But over the last few years, I've been selling fewer books each time one is published and my agent couldn't get a publisher for my two most recent books. I write non-fiction, investigative journalism books and with the spread of the Internet, people can get so much information free, they have no need to buy my kind of books anymore. The other problem I've had is that my books are usually quite topical. But when you sell a book to a traditional publisher, it can take six months or more from the time you deliver the finished typescript to the book appearing in the shops. So, by the time my books appeared, they were almost already out of date.
My agent handles quite a lot of similar non-fiction books and faced with a publishing industry that was buying fewer books and taking too long to publish them, my agent set up his own publishing imprint using CreateSpace to produce the books and sell them through Amazon bypassing bookshops altogether. This meant that my books could now appear on my agent's imprint a couple of weeks after submitting the completed typescript. The first of my books done this way, DON'T BUY IT! Tricks and Traps Salespeople Use, was out within days of being finished and has sold a couple of thousand copies in Britain. Though what I really want is for an American publisher to take it and adapt it for the, much larger, US market.
My agent having his own imprint also gave me a choice. When I wrote a book that my agent didn't want to do, I could just do it myself through CreateSpace.
In 2014, I wrote a book, THE GREAT CHARITY SCANDAL, exposing massive waste and dishonesty in the charity industry and used CreateSpace to publish the paperback version. CreateSpace is so easy to use, that the whole book cost me just over $10 to produce. The $10 was to buy a photo for the cover. Again CreateSpace is so easy to work with that I did all the cover design myself. It's not very beautiful, as you'll see at http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Great-Charity-Scandal-billions-ebook/dp/B00PNPOQGG. But it does the job.
Though publishing a book is now easier than it ever has been, you still have the problem of selling a few copies once your book is published. I use three main methods. First my agent tries to interest a newspaper in doing an article based on the book. This is obviously easier for topical non-fiction than for fiction. This gets sales moving and can earn a useful $4,000 or so.
The other things I do is to promote my books on my website, where I write a daily political blog. And more recently, I've found that, using websites like guru.com or peopleperhour.com, I can find freelancers who can produce short (3-4 minutes) YouTube videos based on my books for about $300 each.
When I did my first self-publish, RIP-OFF!, I had to take quite a risk spending thousands to produce, print and stock the book. But now with CreateSpace publishing any book is pretty much free. And it's a lot of fun.
Here you suggested a wonderful thoughts. I have never read an article like this. Am also a writer. Mainly focused on essay writing and short stories. This article very helpful for every readers and those who interested in writing. You could express that what's on your mind with simple and easy words. Here I can say this is an simple beautiful article. Those who need such writing help, can visit my page. You will definitely get a good result.
This is a great idea. you have provided me with access to valuable resources. I have not graduated to publishing level yet my stories are more episodes for TV or Movies.
You are brilliant. I wish I could pick your brains.
I'm more of a short story writer. Over the years I've amassed a number of little stories. I've just started a website and have a couple of stories on it. I wish there were some way to get some of my stories published but I don't even know how to start.

Trump says FBI agents searched his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida
By Deepa Shivaram,
Terry Renna
The entrance to former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate is shown, Monday, Aug. 8, 2022, in Palm Beach, Fla. Trump said in a lengthy statement that the FBI was conducting a search of his Mar-a-Lago estate and asserted that agents had broken open a safe.
Former President Donald Trump said on Monday that FBI agents had searched his Mar-a-Lago club and residence in Palm Beach, Fla., and opened his safe.
The FBI and Department of Justice declined to comment, although Eric Trump said Monday night that he was told the search was related to the possible mishandling of government secrets the Justice Department is known to be investigating after the National Archives retrieved White House records from Mar-a-Lago.
"The purpose of the raid was, from what they said, was because the National Archives wanted to corroborate whether or not Donald Trump had any documents in his possession," the former president's son told Fox News. "And my father has worked so collaboratively with them for months. In fact, the lawyer that's been working on this was totally shocked. He goes, 'I have such an amazing relationship with these people and all of a sudden, on no notice, they send 20 cars and 30 agents?'"
The younger Trump said he got a call about the search being executed on Monday morning and informed his father. Neither was present and first-hand accounts of how the search was conducted were not available.
The search, which would have required a court order from a federal judge, signals the former president is under greater scrutiny from federal investigators than was previously known.
In a statement put out by his political action committee, Trump said Mar-a-Lago was "under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents."
"After working and cooperating with the relevant government agencies, this unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate," the statement said.
Trump went on to blame Democrats who don't want him to run for president in 2024 for the incident, and said the same people also want to stop Republicans from winning in the midterm elections.
Search would likely need top DOJ approval
While there is no indication that prosecutors are on the verge of charging Trump, or that he will ultimately be charged, the search marks a significant step. In order to get a warrant, investigators would have had to demonstrate to a judge that there was probable cause to believe that a crime had been committed and that evidence of the crime was at Mar-a-Lago.
A search of a former president's home would likely need to be approved at the highest levels of the Justice Department. A department spokeswoman declined to comment whether Attorney General Merrick Garland had signed off on the Mar-a-Lago search.
A White House official said they did not receive notice of the search, and referred questions to the Justice Department.
While Mar-a-Lago is Trump's official residence, it's a seasonal club and the former president spends the summer months primarily up north, often at his golf club in Bedminster, N.J. He was seen outside Trump Tower in New York City on Monday evening.
Earlier this year, the National Archives and Records Administration said it had recovered 15 boxes of White House records and other items from Trump's Florida club, sparking a Justice Department investigation.
Trump's announcement of the search sparked a firestorm on the right, with Republicans accusing Democrats of weaponizing the federal bureaucracy.
"The Department of Justice has reached an intolerable state of weaponized politicization," House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., said in a statement. He promised oversight of the department, should Republicans win the House in November, and warned Garland, "preserve your documents and clear your calendar."
Trump's 2024 plans may weigh on prosecutors
Monday's action also comes as the Justice Department was ramping up its investigations into Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election — though there have not been reports of an investigation into Trump himself.
As Trump teases another run at the White House, former federal prosecutor Brian Jacobs told NPR that another Trump candidacy could weigh on DOJ prosecutors, but wouldn't impact any potential investigations.
"I think prosecutors in the Department of Justice all know that they are not allowed to select the timing of investigative steps or criminal charges for the purpose of affecting any election," Jacobs said.


And that little handsome bugger below is my adorable almost 2-year-old. He looks like his papa, not like me (but we do have the same nose!) And obviously, I am having another baby, another boy! So I guess all those cute little girly things I make will continue to be gifted or sold. But I am sure I will have a little girl someday, I have had too many dreams about having a daughter.
I am married to a wonderful and hard working man who is studying to be a dentist, so he studies a LOT, leaving me plenty of time to craft and sew in the evenings. I am a stay-at-home mom and definitely stay busy with my son, our play groups, my house work, my shop, my blogging, etc etc etc. I wish I had more time to read books, catch up with friends, and work on my spiritual side.
Just wanted to let you know that I have been reading, and loving, your craft blog, too. For some reason I can't comment on it from my phone which is why I haven't commented yet. So there's my question–why can't I comment from my phone? Also, have you picked a name for baby #2 yet?
Ha, thanks Mandy! I don't know why you can't comment from your phone…I definitely am not up with that technology. And yes, we know his name for sure, but you will have to wait until he's born to find out!!
omg how cute is your bump! love all your crafts you have been sending my way!
Heidi, you look great! How cute are you! Seriously, I'm jealous… I just look like a fat blob.


The purpose of this thesis is to present research on magnetic amplifiers and to discuss how magnetic amplifiers are useful in voltage regulation applications. Beginning with a background in magnetics and magnetic properties, this thesis outlines the importance of the B-H curve and explains how to simulate the B-H curve of a saturable inductor using LtSpice. Furthermore, two saturable inductors can be aligned in antiparallel to create a magnetic amplifier. The theory of magnetic amplifiers is dated, but its simplistic design has benefits for modern applications. The magnetic amplifier acts as a variable impedance switch where a small amount of DC current can control the output voltage of a circuit. This is possible because the control current varies the core's position on its B-H curve. Once the core is saturated, any further increase in control current will not affect the output voltage of the circuit. Based on the design of the magnetic cores the saturation point can be adjusted. Using the saturable inductor model in LtSpice, a magnetic amplifier can be simulated in a voltage regulation circuit. This circuit is constructed and tested using three different types of magnetic materials for the magnetic amplifier. The correlation between the simulated and measured results attests to the importance of modeling circuits before construction. This design method ensures reproducibility and this thesis shows the effectiveness of magnetic amplifiers in achieving voltage regulation.


FM processes are the key to delivering innovative services to the highest levels of excellence in the developing market in Dubai. PFM talks to John Moriarty, Managing Director of FSI (FM Solutions) Limited, CAFM developers and Microsoft Gold Partners, who explains how CAFM fits in to the new, front-of-house ethos that is now driving customer experience for a facility's end-user.
In the five short years since FSI opened its first office in Dubai, the decision to establish a presence and make a firm commitment to the region rather than identifying third party partners to take an indirect route to the market has proved more than a little prescient.
Demand for our software has exploded. Back in 2002, we had just a handful of clients in the Emirate. Today, we have 34 - most of them acquired during the last year. But as we continue to consolidate our presence in the region, adding to our team month by month, our experience also tells us that while CAFM is rapidly emerging as a recognised enabler and mechanism for FM service delivery and excellence, the market is still in an embryonic state on the verge of a major lift-off.
A major challenge - and opportunity - for all of the leading UK and international FM companies that have descended on Dubai in anticipation, is how to apply the joined-up thinking that will allow FM to develop into an integral element of the service delivery infrastructure rather than operating in the background in a more reactive, asset managing role.
Hardly a week goes by without the arrival of a familiar face from the UK FM scene to take up a senior position in some aspect of the Emirate's FM industry. And we have seen a massive migration of key UK FM players, generating intense local interest in the role FM can play in the race for innovation.
This interest is reflected in the proliferation of reading material that now serves the market: Dubai has no fewer than three specialist FM publications; and the success of FM related trade shows is further evidence that major organisations at every level of the sector are setting up in the Emirate to capitalist on the anticipated boom.
There are, however, important lessons to be learned at this stage of the evolution of the FM market in Dubai. During our relatively short experience in the Emirate, FSI has recognised the value and importance of developing a reputation for delivering a service rather than simply supplying a CAFM software product. For example, Dubai is a market in which networking and word of mouth are all-important. The success of FSI's recent Tune in to FM seminar was a direct result of working closely with ex-par people and organisations to connect with the local business culture. This is not an environment in which more formal western business style of communication works well. Instead, relationships are forged on trust, developed socially and often outside normal business hours. And this is how you become a vital part of the network.
Looking around, it has take some FM companies a while to understand that the business pointers they are used to back home - generally focused around efficiency and economy - carry little weight in the emerging Dubai market. Here, the traditional response to a demand for increased efficiency is to throw extra bodies at a particular problem, even if it turns out that the quality of labour is not best suited to the challenge.
In a low-cost labour market, people - as many as it takes - rather than software are still perceived as the solution to an efficiency crisis. And this perception was compounded in the earliest days of the Dubai market by some early pioneers who sold software products that were never satisfactorily implemented. That initial cynicism lingers but there are signs of change.
The labour force is becoming more volatile, compelling constructors and project managers to look for alternative solutions to address vital processes. Suppliers are joining FSI in the realisation that raw product isn't enough. They need to deliver cutting edge systems and services that will capture the imagination of their clients.
While no real demands are yet being made of FM in terms of innovation and an appreciation of what the software can do, the new occupants of the limitless range of state-of-the-art constructions and luxury hotels are demanding excellence on the customer service front. CAFM is emerging as the machine of choice for justifying that service excellence through factors like Key Performance Indicators.
So, while some conservative resistance to its potential remains, the cautious are increasingly influenced by the example of early adopters who not only realise how CAFM can impact on the delivery of concierge-style services in modern Dubai, but are actually driving software developers like FSI to innovate in response to their ever more sophisticated requirements.
During the next five years as the FM market in the Gulf shifts from emergence to consolidation, the industry must help constructors and developers to define how CAFM fits in to the new, front-of-house ethos that is now driving customer experience for a facility's end-user.
FSI believes that as development continues at a frantic pace, the determination of constructors to outdo each other as a matter of pride will drive their growing realisation that FM processes are the key to delivering innovative services to the highest levels of excellence. CAFM will become, in effect, the service delivery tool of choice.
We have a great opportunity to present CAFM as an essential business proposition, enabling tighter integration between systems that were previously disconnected. And it is increasingly obvious that the professional FM provider has a pivotal role to play in fine-tuning post-construction facilities through the integration of security, HR, IT communications, financial CRM and health and safety systems.
It is the equivalent of meeting the needs of the most prestigious customer in a top-flight hotel. The success of CAFM in the region depends on our ability to convince the Dubai market that cutting edge FM is all about combining the ethos of service excellence with the interpretation of real-time data, and leveraging that to take the business forward. Once the market sinks its teeth into that concept, there will be no going back.

In case you didn't get enough ancient Egyptian aliens from Stargate, Ridley Scott is cooking up a new series that should fill the pyramid-shaped void.
Scott (Alien, Blade Runner) has signed on with HBO to develop the new series Pharaoh, which will revolve around ancient Egypt and the influence of alien beings as an alternative explanation for the rise of empires in the region. Yeah, that could actually work. David Schulner (Kings, The Event) co-created the project with Giannina Facio and Colet Abedi.
The series doesn't have a full pickup yet, but it's an intriguing project, and Scott's involvement should give it a leg up in the pilot process. The concept could be a fun one to dig into, combining historical fiction and some nice sci-fi angles.
Obviously, fans of Stargate are pretty familiar with the concept, and it sounds like Scott could be putting a spin on the old premise (minus the 'gates, apparently). Do you think this could be a good project?

Controversy will impact Jameis Winston's Heisman hopes
By Mike Huguenin

Supplemental draft set for July 9; four available players schedule pro days
Notice-to-appear warrant issued for FSU QB De'Andre Johnson
On the official Heisman Trophy website, the mission statement says the coveted award goes to the "outstanding college football player whose performance best exhibits the pursuit of excellence with integrity."
Unless you're incredibly naïve, you know that the last word -- "integrity" -- is going to play a role in this season's Heisman race.
Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston, bidding to become the second consecutive redshirt freshman to win the award, is the current leader in most Heisman polls. But Winston's involvement in a sexual-assault case has caused angst among some voters.
We certainly understand that it likely antagonizes some folks that in the midst of a sexual-assault investigation, there are people who worry about who might or might not win a trophy, but the fact remains it is a topic of discussion.
Winston has not been charged in the case, and Leon County (Fla.) State Attorney Willie Meggs has said it might be another week or two before any decision is made on any possible charges.
All Heisman voting will be done on-line this year. Voters will receive a voting link next Monday, and all ballots must be submitted electronically by Monday, Dec. 9, at 5 p.m. ET.
It seems likely that a decision will be made on any charges by Dec. 9. But that is by no means definite.
If Winston is charged, he won't win the Heisman. Yes, he has been magnificent on the field, but a player winning the Heisman while facing sexual-assault charges? Won't happen, not in a million years.
If there is no decision or if he isn't charged? The situation might not be as simple as it would appear. At first glance, if he's not charged and a voter thinks he's the best candidate, why wouldn't it be an easy choice? Still, there likely would be some who would have trepidations about voting for him simply because he was involved in the investigation. And there also likely would be some voters looking for another candidate, if for no other reason than to soothe their conscience.
There won't be a shortage of other candidates.
Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel has a shot at winning his second consecutive Heisman, and he has two big games to close out the regular season: Saturday at LSU and next Saturday at Missouri. Those are two high-level opponents, both currently in the BCS top 25.
Jameis Winston through the years
Check out Florida State's new quarterback, "Famous" Jameis Winston, as he emerges as one of college football's new stars.
Oregon sophomore quarterback Marcus Mariota was the Heisman frontrunner until the Ducks lost to Stanford. Oregon finishes out the regular season with games against Arizona and Oregon State, two solid opponents but nothing near the level of opponent Manziel will go against. Oregon also appears headed for the Pac-12 championship game, and the team the Ducks meet there almost certainly will be a BCS top-20 squad.
Baylor junior quarterback Bryce Petty has gained a lot of traction as a candidate in the past few weeks, and he likely will gain even more momentum if he can lead the Bears past host Oklahoma State in this weekend's marquee game. Baylor also has games remaining against TCU and Texas.
There also are Northern Illinois senior quarterback Jordan Lynch, who has a MAC team on the verge of a second consecutive BCS berth, and Alabama senior quarterback AJ McCarron, who is trying for his third consecutive national title.
In short, if voters are looking for other candidates, it seems likely they will have at least two and maybe three others to choose from.
I'm a Heisman voter, and I'm willing to predict that Winston won't win if there has been no decision made on the charges when the vote is due. If the decision is made that no charges will be filed, I'm not totally convinced he'll win, either. I think he will, but in an extremely close vote.

From Crete, we took a day excursion to Santorini, where the famous films, Chalte Chalte and Wanted, had some of their songs shot.
So.. I had to agree and also dragged my daughter along!
When I got there, they told us that they are making cucumber dip called Tzatziki. To me, this sounded something suspiciously like cucumber raita, until the chef unveiled his secret and we found out that this is no ordinary dip. Garlic and extra virgin olive oil in large amounts were the secret surprises!
"Tzatziki is traditionally served as an appetizer and can be left on the table as an accompaniment to foods throughout the meal. The key to great tzatziki is the thick creamy texture that allows it to be eaten alone, as a dip, as a spread, and as a condiment."
First, mix the salt and grated cucumber and leave for 2-3 mins (this step is important as the salt helps to remove the moisture from the cucumber). Mix in all of the other ingredients into the yogurt. From the cucumber, press out all the water and add into the yogurt, mix it well and chill for half an hour.
@Jyoti V..yes, we had a lovely time there..
@Vrinda..very simple, we don't add garlic and oil i raita..
hey jagruti...yes it is indeed awesome...didn't know the name, my usual variation from the spinach dip is the dill dip that I make..this sure sounds wonderful !!
