Old Enemy, New Victim
Born in Chicago in 1971
Latex resin, yak hair
98 x 185 x 130 cm (approx.)
Purchase, Horsley and Annie Townsend Bequest, anonymous gift and gift of the Honourable Charles Lapointe, P.C., inv. 2007.260.1-2
International Contemporary Art
Old Enemy, New Victim, a scene of hate-filled violence tempered only minimally by the grotesque comedy of a large ape being throttled and attacked by two ravenous beasts, has its source in both political fable and animal sculpture. While the impulse behind the work is clearly La Fontaine, the hyperrealist precision with which silicone and yak hair have been used to construct the animals is the product of skills acquired at the Cranbrook Academy of Art, in Michigan, and honed in the studio of Jeff Koons, for whom Tony Matelli worked for a time as an assistant. "I'm interested in culture, not nature," the artist says. The fables that Matelli illustrates focus on the rejects of wealthy society, challengers of the social order, and victims of technological progress.


Made for the very serious business of self-preservation - the 605 is built to the Taurus Zero Tolerance standard - in design, fabrication, fit and performance. Meaning there is simply no tolerance for parts that do not perform as if someone's life depends on them. Using the powerful .357 Magnum ammo - this quick-draw revolver has plenty of muscle to back it up. Features include fixed sights, crisp single-double action trigger and a transfer bar for added safety.


Business owners must make decisions all the time. Some of these decisions revolve around communication, which is an integral part of any organization. The purpose of this article is to help inform you before you decide whether to use traditional, landline phones or VoIP phones.
With traditional phones, your voice is transmitted through copper wires (either underground or by telephone poles) in the form of electricity. VoIP phones, however, use internet to send your voice (as data) to the other end of the call.
Now that you have a better understanding of how the different phone system work, it is time to choose one! The following four facts should factor into your decision heavily.
VoIP phone systems won't work without good internet. They rely heavily on them, without internet, incoming calls just go straight to voicemail, not allowing you to receive or initiate calls.
Landline phones, however, are completely independent of internet. They even work through power outages. Thus, if you live in an area with unreliable internet, landline phones are recommended. Nowadays, however, most business heavily rely on the internet just to conduct their day-to-day businesses. Because of this, if one can, they should choose VoIP phones, as they offer higher qualities of service.
If budget is an issue of yours, VoIP is highly recommended. An average small business with five dedicated phone lines would have to pay around $120 a month for each line, while five VoIP lines could be as low as $30 each.
Both VoIP and Landline phones offer different things. While they might be able to offer similar features, landline phones often require additional, expensive, hardware and software to perform on the same level as VoIP phones. PBX systems, which is an additional, often required software can cost up to $2000 per user to install.
VoIP phones, however, don't require such high start-up costs. On top of this, they also offer features like three-way calling, long-distance, and international calls. PBX and VoIP phone system providers often offer similar features, so in the end, it is up to you to decide.
At the end of the day, what you are most comfortable with, really matters. If you prefer the simplicity and security of traditional, landline phones, that is the best option for you. If you prefer the newer, more advanced technology, you should use it.
You should, however, keep it in mind that many professionals consider landline phones an old, obsolete technology. At the same time, VoIP is a more advanced technology that is getting consistently better and better.

Why is it so difficult to leave?
This morning I read the weekly news roundup from a favorite website and clicked to read The New York Times article, "The Downside of Cohabiting Before Marriage." It's a good read, but oddly the article made me think about our upcoming move to Shenyang.
Our decision took over a year to make (probably about 18 months of self- torture reflection). At one point in the decision process we had a false start and turned down an offer to teach in Kunming. What were we thinking? Kunming has the best climate of any city in China. And the apartments were amazing. And huge! Our friends taught there. It's the perfect situation, but we turned it down. Why?
First (and most importantly), the Father placed a deep conviction in my heart that Kunming was the wrong path. Second, consumer lock-in.
[Consumer] Lock-in is the decreased likelihood to search for, or change to, another option once an investment in something has been made. The greater the setup costs, the less likely we are to move to another, even better, situation, especially when faced with switching costs, or the time, money and effort it requires to make a change1
It is still difficult now as we prepare to leave Harbin, decision in hand. We've committed so much to this relationship that leaving is nearly impossible. We were locked-in because setup costs are high. Although some of these costs are the same we'll face with a new organization, specifically #1-2, these costs for Harbin combined to decrease our likelihood of ever changing jobs.
We left America to live in China.
We sold our cars and stored other possessions in a sea container.
We raised considerable annual support and have a firm base of annual givers.
We increased our monthly givers year after year until now we are at a sustained level of monthly giving.
Family and friends joined us in this vision for serving Chinese college students and new friends are catching this vision.
We established a mailing list which would need to be transferred to another source when we change organizations.
We built relationships with nationals throughout Harbin.
We know Harbin: what to do and where to go to get what we need.
We built a home here. It's the only place our kids have lived.
We taught English courses to university students and have a wealth of lesson plans and material for future classes.
We know the university deans and officials and our kids have played together.
Moving is hard. Boxes, shipping companies, and setting up a new apartment seem to require too much time, money, energy, and stress.
We have to relearn everything (see #7-11).
To leave and follow the Father's future plans for our family requires faith. Loads of faith. I'm glad we are locked-in to the Father.

Rikus
Mul Rune Priest
Rikus was forced to leave his home in Durnhollow on the demand of his Mother. Upon leaving, he found himself wandering into temple where he learned the ways of Naaru, the god of justice and life. Rikus studied the works for years, which led him to Brightport. Upon reaching Brightport, Rikus took one of the hundred "dirty jobs" that floated around the city, and was brought together with Galford, Rock, Trixy, and Tala. They were tasked with the removal of a band of troublemakers led by an individual named Blackteeth. After the death of Blackteeth, The group moved into the city where they met with an unscrupulous gnome named Graddik 'The Wanted.' Graddik tasked the group with sneaking into House Darksbane (one of the three houses that helped maintain the economy of the city) and steal the "Golden Dragon," an item that gave each house it's power in the city. Though executed poorly, the mission was a success, but the group found itself fleeing House Darksbane being chased by its protector, a white dragon. The group was held for questioning in their involvement, but were sold into slavery by Graddik for their troubles. Show spoiler
Rikus (along with the party) were sent to Onak-Al, a slave-gladiator based city where the owners of the arena capture and force their captives to fight each other to the death. There, Rikus met Katey and Silvia Ebelmare, and Vallus Grimnas. Rikus and the party were forced to face off, and eventually kill all three in order to stay alive. The party woke in the dungeons to find that everyone in the arena was dead… or undead. The group went through, and escaped the arena whilst trying to piece together the happenings and reasons behind the zombies that surrounded them. While escaping, Tala was bitten, and by the time the group arrived back at House Darksbane, they were forced to dispatch her. The group went through the house, facing off with Doug the Beholder, and eventually removing Thermack as well as Laura Cree. The group took control of the house from there, and would eventually return to Onak-Al to fix the last problem that Thermack left before his death. After their return to the house, Rikus and the rest grew restless and eventually left Brightport, leaving Tessia in charge of House Dragonkeep. They arrived in Lochfort some time later and Rikus met a man named Patsy Patsy in the tavern. He agreed to lead the party into the Silver Glade to help with the local werewolf problem. Rikus and the group found the werewolves, and that day more than half of the party, including Rikus died at their claws and teeth .
Appearance and Personality
Rikus' build is much like a stocky lineman in football. Bald head, he has one tattoo on his chest that reads "Protect those who can not protect themselves" in black ink.

Forest have a really tall order because they cannot afford any more slip ups.
On paper Bournmouth look to be in with a great shout of winning the title 3-1 at the bookies looks tempting.
10 games is 30pts that'll put us potentially on 83pts. Which is more than enough for the playoffs.
We can probably afford to drop 6pts in the next 10 games. So win 8 basically.
If we get 76pts and still dont make top 6, well.... thats just very unlucky.
Derby will play Millwall and Blackpool once they've already officially been relegated.
Two wins from the next four and they're up. But that's a tough next four.
Very tough ask. Though Freedman hit the nail on the head when he said if somebody slumps in form, we need to be ready to take their place.
Win all the home games, don't lose the away games and pick up one or two away from home, who knows. I don't expect us to do it, but stranger things have happened.
Derby have 4 key games coming up realistically we could be within a few points of them if they keep current form up, Brentford have the easiest run in, Boro have a difficult test too.
If we can keep defending well and the long shots keep going in, then I think we've got a chance.
Don't worry about Derby. We needn't worry about anyone. Trying to predict who will win in this league is folly.
Derby could conceivably beat Norwich and Borough, then lose to Millwall and Blackpool.
If we keep plugging away then teams will lose games. Any one of the top six could slip, it's a crazy league.
Let's just best Leeds and other teams will sort themselves out.
There are 7 winnable games there, and we need to overcome losing the other 3 ( don't ask me which ones). I think given everyone plays everyone else, 74 points would be enough to sneak 6th.
At least it keeps it interesting.
We have many potential banana skins in there: leeds , watford, norwich, wolves, blackburn, ipswich, brentford.
So 7 of the 10 are very tough. And we cant take for granted roger'em and huddersfield. Although youd think that if we stand any chance of going up we have to win our home games.
One game at a time , one match at a time. Win the next match , then can look towards to the next game.
I want some of that beer you're drinking.
We're not getting into the playoffs. Happy with the little flirt we're having, but it'll be no more than that.
As long as forest make a fist of it and treat every match until the end of the season like a cup final , then no one here can really complain.
Middlesboro must be a bit worried about the chances of automatics, I would have thought.
Norwich and Bournemouth has easier run ins for sure. Would imagine those two having a great shout at top two.
Amazing really that Forest have taken 22 points from 11 matches against the current top 8 teams this season thus far, only losing to Brentford!
Leaving just 31 points taken from 25 games against the teams 10th or lower.
In contrast Watford have only taken 8 points from the top teams, with their only wins coming against Brentford.
No pressure on us at the moment. IF.......we get close then that's a huge factor.


On Monday 17 July 2017 we met up at Priory Hall for an inspiring talk from Jill Rose Brennan.
Jill Rose started sewing at an early age, during summer holidays spent with her grandparents. Later she went to Goldsmiths College where her interests were in dress design and painting, leaving with a teaching degree. In 1989 she moved to Southampton and discovered quilting, which incorporated her love of drawing, painting and sewing.
She joined Joan York's New Forest Quilt Group and had a wonderful time developing her skills.
Jill Rose's studio is based in The Sorting Office in Eastleigh but also runs workshops at the National Needlework Archive, in Newbury.
She explained how she has developed her own work and her sewing techniques, including appliqué and machine and hand quilting. She told us that when working on large quilts she uses a wooden frame, with the fabric anchored in position. The sewing machine, on rollers, is moved over the fabric, rather than the other way round. As well as using a kaleidoscope of quilting methods, Jill Rose also dyes and monoprints onto fabric to enhance her designs.
nationally recognised and she won the Art Quilt trophy and Machine Appliqué Award at the National Quilt Championships for her quilt called 'The last Rays of Glorious Sunlight Before The Rest That Night time Brings'.
Jill Rose brought lots of examples of her work to show us and we were all amazed at her use of colour and the intricacies of her designs.
Many thanks Jill Rose, for coming to talk to us. It was a very inspiring and enjoyable evening.

Today we'd like to introduce you to Alana Sutton Watkins.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Alana. So, let's start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
When I was pregnant with my third child, Yara Imani, I began scouring the web for African inspired baby dresses. A month or so after her birth, I found a lovely woman in Ghana and her team made beautiful pieces for my entire family. We took pictures in our new Ghanaian clothing and used one of the pictures for our holiday cards. The response to our cards was overwhelming! Everyone loved our clothing and wanted to know where they could find similar items for their families. It was then that I realized there was a need to connect consumers with African and African inspired designers. And with that, Yara Imani the business was created and named after my inspiration, my daughter Yara Imani.
Instead, here's what I'd say to entrepreneurs of all ages and stages.
Pay attention to your financials and analytics. How financially healthy is your business? What is your profit margin? How are users arriving at your website? How much time are they spending once there and what are they viewing? I review these numbers daily and use them to create both short and long-term plans.
Know your customer. Talk to your existing customers, read industry publications, consult your girlfriends and other confidants. Understand who your customer is, what her pain points are, how she likes to shop, and what she likes to do. Having this knowledge will provide clear direction for sustaining your business.
Find your voice and use it! I love sending handwritten notes with every order. Early on, I remember writing notes with "hot" or trendy words, but they felt so inauthentic. Now, every email, newsletter, and social media post is written in my voice, with my magic!
Alright – so let's talk business. Tell us about Yara Imani – what should we know?
Yara Imani is an on an online boutique of African inspired apparel and accessories. As a boutique, we are known for head-turning clothing designs and bold statement accessories.
I partner with designers and artisans on the African continent and across the diaspora in order to curate a collection of unique, authentic, and ethically created items.
I am most proud of creating positive images of Afrocentric beauty & culture while encouraging an entrepreneurial spirit within my children and my community.
I am extremely fortunate to have met many phenomenal, supportive women that have helped me along my journey. Leaders who have connected me with media outlets, invited me to speak at or attend their events, recommended events for me to showcase my boutique, provided feedback on my website or product selection, and shared my business with their networks. I genuinely believe that we all can do better and be better when we work collectively. I actively seek opportunities to support others and to repay the gifts and blessings that have been bestowed upon me.

UK to ban public institutions from boycotting Israeli products
By Bao Yen - February 16, 2016
Under the new British government procurement guidelines, public institutions and local councils are banned from boycotting Israeli products, the Guardian reported.
The controversial regulations, set to be announced this week during a visit to Israel by Cabinet Officer minister Matthew Hancock, will prohibit publicly funded bodies in Britain the freedom to refuse to buy goods and services provided by companies linked to illegal trades of arms, fuel fossils and Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank.
Institutions contravening the regulations could face severe punishments.
The boycotting ban, according to Hancock, aims to end "divisive town hall boycotts", expressing concerns that boycotting can undermine community relations and fuel anti-Semitism.
Hugh Lanning, chair of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign, called the move, "a gross attack on our democratic freedoms and the independence of public bodies from Government interference." Amnesty International, British Councillors, local government experts and the British Labour Party also highly condemned the guideline.
"The Government's decision to ban councils and other public bodies from divesting from trade or investments they regard as unethical is an attack on local democracy," said the spokesman for the Labour party's leader Jeremy Corbyn. He continued, "People have the right to elect local representatives able to make decisions free of central government political control. That includes withdrawal of investments or procurement on ethical and human rights grounds."
The new rules target local councils, universities and possibly even some students' unions, preventing these groups from making ethical and conscious investment decisions or buying certain products.
In a public statement, Rafeef Ziadah, UK spokesperson for the Palestinian Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) National Committee said, "Far from thwarting the growing public support for the Palestinian struggle for freedom, justice and equality, these measures simply shine a spotlight on the UK's deepening support for Israel's oppression of Palestinians and underline the need for solidarity campaigning."
There have been several cases in which British council's passed policies to boycott Israeli goods produced in Palestinian territories, such as the examples of Leicester City, Tower Hamlets, Swansea or Bristol.
In 2014, the Scottish government also released a notice to local councils that "strongly discourages trade and investment from illegal settlements." French multinational water, energy and waste management firm Veolia also announced last April that they were shutting down their operations in Israel.
"We stand in support of all groups and communities bearing the brunt of the conservative government's neoliberal agenda and it's all out attacks on democracy and basic rights," Ziadah added.

"She has decided that her main focus needs to be clearing her husband's name from accusations made 25-30 years ago and tending to her son," a source told CNN. Chen's absence from The Talk has been noteworthy in the last few days since Moonves, her husband, was recently ousted as chief of CBS amid roughly a dozen sexual harassment accusations. Chen has Continue reading "Julie Chen Reportedly Leaving The Talk Amid Les Moonves Misconduct Allegations"
Joy Behar: Julie Chen Can't Return to The Talk Until She 'Comes Clean' on Husband Les Moonves
Joy Behar doesn't see how Julie Chen can possibly return to The Talk on CBS unless she "comes clean" on the troubles surrounding her husband, recently ousted CBS chief Les Moonves. The View on Friday discussed how Chen surprised viewers last night by closing out the latest episode of Big Brother by calling herself "Julie Chen-Moonves." Since this was unusual on Chen's part, the View panel took it as a sign that she's standing with her husband despite the fact that he was recently ousted over an increasing number of sexual misconduct allegations. With Chen having been absent from The Talk over the last few days, Behar believes it's "going to be hard" for her to come back if she cannot acknowledge something as prominent as the #MeToo movement without saying she's part of it. "What topics can they do?" Behar asked. "They can't talk about anything related Continue reading "Joy Behar: Julie Chen Can't Return to The Talk Until She 'Comes Clean' on Husband Les Moonves"
Julie Chen Closes Out Latest Big Brother by Saying 'I'm Julie Chen Moonves, Goodnight'
Hosting tonight's Big Brother, Julie Chen closed out with a pretty subtle statement about her husband, Les Moonves. Moonves was the CEO of CBS until this week, when he was fired following a second New Yorker report containing some serious allegations of sexual misconduct. Moonves' departure was followed by the firing of 60 Minutes executive producer Jeff Fager after he sent a disturbing text to a CBS News correspondent reaching out to him for comment. Chen is still at CBS as co-host of The Talk and host of Big Brother, and tonight was her first appearance on the network since his firing. And at the end of tonight's Big Brother, this was her sign-off:
"I'm Julie Chen Moonves, goodnight."
It may have been a subtle show of support for her husband from Chen, who put out a statement weeks ago after the first New Yorker report Continue reading "Julie Chen Closes Out Latest Big Brother by Saying 'I'm Julie Chen Moonves, Goodnight'"
WATCH: Bob Woodward and CBS This Morning Team Confront Network Scandal
This post is by Joe DePaolo from Mediaite
Amid the ouster, this week, of CBS chief Les Moonves and 60 Minutes executive producer Jeff Fager — both of whom have been accused of sexual misconduct — heralded reporter Bob Woodward addressed the network's turmoil during on appearance on its morning show. "CBS has gone through a scandal," Woodward said. "Let's call it what it is." Yet the Watergate crusader expressed optimism that the network would be back on its feet soon. He singled out 60 Minutes correspondent Lesley Stahl among others at CBS whom he admires. "Are you trying to say, Bob, we'll be okay at CBS?" Gayle King asked. "Is that what you're saying?" "Thats exactly right," he replied. "Because you've got strength. People go through tough times." The journalist added, "You are going to be fine if you stick with your values." "I really appreciate you saying this," King said. "It's Continue reading "WATCH: Bob Woodward and CBS This Morning Team Confront Network Scandal"
New Report Reveals Stunning Details on Moonves Ouster: Allegedly Tried to Keep Woman from Going Public
CBS News is under intense scrutiny this week following the ousting of both CEO Les Moonves and 60 Minutes executive producer Jeff Fager, and there's new reporting from The New York Times tonight on the circumstances of how both ended up being booted. The Times' deep dive into what was going on behind the scenes reveals that Moonves was actually trying to keep one woman from speaking out by trying to get her a job:
A few days later, as part of the company's investigation, the newly-hired lawyers asked to interview Mr. Moonves. He initially resisted, but relented after CBS warned that he was contractually obligated to cooperate fully in any investigation. If he didn't, he could be fired for "cause" and would forfeit any severance payment. With his own lawyers also present, Mr. Moonves discussed the Los Angeles police complaint, which he'd known about since November. And Continue reading "New Report Reveals Stunning Details on Moonves Ouster: Allegedly Tried to Keep Woman from Going Public"
BREAKING: 60 Minutes Executive Producer Jeff Fager Out at CBS News Amid Misconduct Allegations
CBS News president David Rhodes just sent out a statement announcing 60 Minutes executive producer Jeff Fager is leaving the network "effective immediately." The news comes days after CBS CEO Les Moonves stepped down from the network amid an increasing number of sexual misconduct accusations, as revealed in a new report by Ronan Farrow. Fager was also under scrutiny, having been hit in The New Yorker with allegations of inappropriately touching women and creating a sexist work environment. In Rhodes' memo, he said "Bill Owens will manage the 60 Minutes team as Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews and I begin the search for a new executive producer of the program." He also insisted that Fager's departure "is not directly related to the allegations surfaced in press reports, which continue to be investigated independently. However, he violated company policy and it is our commitment to uphold those policies at every

Gayle King Demands Transparency From CBS' Les Moonves Probe: 'I'm Sickened by Everything We Keep Hearing'
"I don't know how we move forward, if we at CBS, don't have full transparency about what we find." — @GayleKing on sexual misconduct probe at CBS pic.twitter.com/SObLfkoO1M
— CBS This Morning (@CBSThisMorning) September 11, 2018
In a candid moment on CBS This Morning, Gayle King expressed deep concern over sexual misconduct allegations against former C.E.O. Les Moonves, calling for transparency from the network. "I'm so sorry again that it hits so close to home for us," she said Tuesday. "I'm sick and sick of the story and sickened by everything that we keep hearing." Moonves, who is making his exit from CBS as a handful of women accuse the media mogul of both harassment and assault, has again stirred controversy at the company amid the #MeToo era in which decades' worth of bad behavior is finally coming to light. On Continue reading "Gayle King Demands Transparency From CBS' Les Moonves Probe: 'I'm Sickened by Everything We Keep Hearing'"
Report: Les Moonves Accidentally Received CBS Board Email on Findings From Investigation
As Les Moonves steps down from CBS over multiple accusations of sexual misconduct, a new report suggests the network's board members accidentally informed him of the investigations into his actions back in mid-August. Wall Street Journal reports that CBS has been dealing with a lot of corporate infighting over the last few months, which made it difficult for the network to take the allegations against Moonves seriously. Moonves has been under investigation since July, when he was first accused of harassment by six women who spoke to Ronan Farrow. The article states that while the probe was underway, Moonves was "accidentally copied on an email to the entire CBS board detailing damaging findings in the law firms' investigations and discussing how to proceed should he need to be put on leave." Now that Moonves is leaving the company, it remains to be seen what sort of exit package he Continue reading "Report: Les Moonves Accidentally Received CBS Board Email on Findings From Investigation"
Colbert Rips Former Boss Les Moonves on The Late Show: 'Extremely Disturbing and I'm Not Surprised'
Today news broke that CEO of CBS Les Mooves is out over the latest sexual misconduct allegations, and on the network's The Late Show, host Stephen Colbert went after him first thing in his opening monologue. First, the show opened with a fake announcement that Undercover Boss with Les Moonves would not be airing, and then Colbert went in. "As you may have heard, the head of this network, Leslie Moonves, was forced to step down yesterday," he began. "This came after a second Ronan Farrow exposé featured more women accusing him of sexual harassment and assault. It's never a good sign when you're the subject of a Ronan Farrow double dip." Colbert read aloud one of the allegations, went for the joke (watch the clip above), and then pointed out that Mooves has been accused of harassing or assaulting 13 women. "The article is extremley disturbing, and Continue reading "Colbert Rips Former Boss Les Moonves on The Late Show: 'Extremely Disturbing and I'm Not Surprised'"
Hosts of The Talk (Minus Julie Chen) Take on Les Moonves After CBS Ouster: 'Obviously the Man Has a Problem'
CBS show The Talk took an awkward and emotional turn on Monday as the show addressed Les Moonves' ouster from the network in the Season 9 premiere. Julie Chen was absent from the show, having released a statement saying she's taking time off to be with her family. This comes after Moonves, Chen's husband, departed CBS after six more women spoke to Ronan Farrow and accused the ex-network chief of sexual misconduct. Sharron Osbourne led the show with this news, saying "it's very embarrassing and upsetting to have to talk about her husband, but we do, we feel its right." Osbourne appeared shaken by the new wave of allegations against Moonves, particularly as she recalled how she was asked to defend Moonves months ago despite only knowing him on a "superficial" level. "Obviously the man has a problem," Osbourne said. "After more women have come out these stories Continue reading "Hosts of The Talk (Minus Julie Chen) Take on Les Moonves After CBS Ouster: 'Obviously the Man Has a Problem'"
As New Allegations Emerge, Les Moonves Reportedly Will Leave CBS Without Severance Package
Les Moonves is about to step down from his role at the head of CBS, according to a CNN report on Sunday afternoon. He will also reportedly leave without a severance package. The first reports of Moonves expected departure came just hours after The New Yorker's Ronan Farrow published yet another damaging report detailing accusations made by six more women against Moonves. Farrow reported in the early morning bombshell:
As the negotiations continue and shareholders and advocacy groups accuse the board of failing to hold Moonves accountable, new allegations are emerging. Six additional women are now accusing Moonves of sexual harassment or assault in incidents that took place between the nineteen-eighties and the early aughts. They include claims that Moonves forced them to perform oral sex on him, that he exposed himself to them without their consent, and that he used physical violence and intimidation against them. A number Continue reading "As New Allegations Emerge, Les Moonves Reportedly Will Leave CBS Without Severance Package"
CBS Chief Les Moonves Had Janet Jackson Blackballed After Super Bowl Wardrobe Malfunction, Per New Report
CBS chief executive Les Moonves was reportedly so enraged by Janet Jackson's Super Bowl wardrobe malfunction that he tried to destroy her career. According to the HuffPo, the whole thing was over that unfortunate moment when Justin Timberlake tore a piece of fabric from Jackson's costume exposing a bit too much to a worldwide audience in 2004. HuffPo reports:
Jackson became a years-long fixation for Moonves after the so-called "wardrobe malfunction" of 2004, when her breast was exposed for nine-sixteenths of a second after Justin Timberlake tore a piece of fabric off her bustier during their Super Bowl halftime performance. CBS and MTV (a subsidiary of Viacom, the parent company of CBS at the time), which produced the halftime show, faced a torrent of criticism and a $550,000 Federal Communications Commission fine.
Both Jackson and Timberlake said it was an accident, but apparently, Moonves didn't believe the Continue reading "CBS Chief Les Moonves Had Janet Jackson Blackballed After Super Bowl Wardrobe Malfunction, Per New Report"
CBS Board Reportedly Offering $100M to Oust Embattled CEO Les Moonves
The board of CBS Corporation has reportedly had enough of embattled CEO Les Moonves, and is negotiating a massive exit package in an effort to oust him from the company. According to CNBC, the CBS board is offering Moonves — who has been accused of sexual harassment by six women — an exit package of approximately $100 million to entice the executive to walk away. Under that arrangement, Moonves, remarkably, would be forfeiting approximately $80 million in compensation which he would reportedly be owed as part of a severance package and a production deal. The accusations against Moonves were made public as part of a bombshell report in the New Yorker written by Ronan Farrow on July 27. In a statement published by the New Yorker, Moonves said, "I recognize that there were times decades ago when I may have made some women uncomfortable by making advances. Those were Continue reading "CBS Board Reportedly Offering $100M to Oust Embattled CEO Les Moonves"

Keller @ Large: Ben Affleck In A Massachusetts Senate Race?
BOSTON (CBS) – Could a Hollywood star be among the potential candidates if and when John Kerry's Senate seat opens up?
It's a political rarity, a major job up for grabs in a special election that allows incumbents to run without giving up their current seat.
Several names have been mentioned, including Scott Brown, Mike Capuano, Ed Markey and Stephen Lynch.
But is it possible for a non-politician to compete in such a short time frame?
Absolutely, if they have some access to money and political connections.
Believe it or not, one name I have heard tossed around is that of actor-director Ben Affleck, the pride of Cambridge, who's been active in Democratic Party politics for more than a decade.
Go ahead and laugh if you want to, but keep in mind, anyone who's over 30, a citizen, and able to get 10,000 certified signatures can enter this race.
And you don't even have to be a legal resident of Massachusetts until Election Day.


Galissas is the most popular tourist resort of Syros, located in a protected bay on the west coast of the island. It includes an area of 7700 acres together with Danakos, a small and quiet farming settlement, the two villages together numbering 500 inhabitants. Galissas includes both arable land used for farming as well as rocky land used for herding. Photo: View of the main beach of Galissas from Agia Pakou hill.
The people of Galissas engage in farming, agriculture, commerce and tourism. There is a substantial tourist growth the last 20 years, converting the area from primarily agricultural to the most popular tourist resort of Syros.
Galissas Accommodation. Lodging in Galissas includes numerous hotels and rooms for rent, some with a swimming pool, and a camping site, all within walking distance from the main beach of Galissas. In Galissas, there are taverns, cafes, bars, various retail shops, such as mini-market, apparel, souvenirs for tourists, jewelers and a hair salon. Photo: Errikos, the mascot of Galissas.
The main Galissas beach is long, with shallow-waters, and lined with tamarisk trees and has been awarded the blue-flag by the EU. Visitors can engage in various water sport activities as well as mini-golf. There is also the quiet, small beach of Armeos in Agia Pakou bay, popular with nudists, with no shops or any other tourist infrastructure. It is about 10 minutes way on foot, by going up the steps to the church of Agia Pakou and then walking down to the beach. Alternatively, it is accessible by water bike or canoe from the main Galissas beach.
Area landmarks are the hill and church of Agia Pakou, the small harbor with a quaint stone pier, the beach of Armeos, the large cave of Agios Stefanos with the water springs, as well as the chapels of Agios Mamas and Agios Kyrikos, the oldest church in Syros. The main church of Galissas is the Catholic church The Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ. Photo: Sunset across the bay of Galissas.
Historians claim that Galissas was settled in the 8th century B.C., with small settlements such as Katacephalos, Harassonas, Horafida, Halepa, Agia Pakou, Argeuto, and Kaveiri. King of the settlement was Prineus the Galissios, hence the name of the village: Galissas.
Photo: Antonis Vamvakaris, proprietor of Maistrali Hotel and a fine woodcraftsman. Mr. Vamvakaris is a nephew of the late Markos Vamvakaris, the famous singer of "Frangosyriani", a classic song of the "Rembetika" genre that includes a poignant reference to Galissas, Syros.
The name is probably derived from the Greek word for "Obedience". It features a quiet, small beach, with no shops, popular with nudists. It is about 10 minutes way on foot, by going up the steps to the church of Agia Pakou and then walking down to the beach. Alternatively, it is accessible by water bike or canoe from the main Galissas beach.


Crime Watch: Diamonds are a Child's best friend?
Diamonds are a Child's best friend?
The Crime Writers' Association (CWA) has announced that the prestigious Diamond Dagger for 2013 will be awarded to the creator of the best-selling Jack Reacher books, Lee Child. "I am delighted that the CWA has chosen Lee Child as this year's recipient," said CWA Chair Peter James. "Lee is one of the few British crime thriller authors to have become a global brand name; he is also an extremely charming and open person and a tireless promoter of our genre."
The Diamond Dagger, which was first presented in 1986, is voted for by members of the CWA and celebrates an author with "an outstanding body of work in crime fiction". It is, in effect, the CWA's 'Lifetime Achievement Award', or Hall of Fame (for sporting fans), and Child joins a 'who's who' of crime fiction in receiving the Award, including the likes of PD James, John LeCarre, Ruth Rendell, Reginald Hill, Ed McBain, Sarah Paretsky, Ian Rankin, Elmore Leonard, and Val McDermid.
Jobless, but still passionate about providing entertainment, Child decided to attempt a novel. He settled on the thriller 'genre', he says, because it was what he'd always enjoyed reading, and because tales of excitement and danger have always been at the heart of storytelling.
Over the decade and a half plus since he dove into the world of thriller novels, he has firmly established himself as a leading exponent of the "centre of storytelling", as Child termed the genre himself. His Reacher novels consistently top the bestseller lists in the United States and Europe (as well as down here in the antipodes), have won various awards, sold some 60 million copies, and were even recently adapted into a much-talked-about movie, One Shot, starring Tom Cruise as the taciturn wandering hero.
Lee Child will be presented with the diamond-studded Dagger at a gala dinner during the upcoming British summer, in the year of the Crime Writer's Association's Diamond Jubilee. Seventy five years after the CWA was started by prolific author John Creasey (whose name adorns the 'new blood' award for the best crime fiction debut each year), the CWA continues to provide support for published crime writers and promote the genre, as well as running the prestigious Dagger Awards, the oldest literary awards in the UK.
Have you read Lee Child's Jack Reacher books? What do you think of him winning the Diamond Dagger for lifetime achievement? What other crime writers do you think should receive the honour in future?
