Perfect for Me
Narrated by: Sebastian York, Emma Wilder, Connor Crais
I'm 3,000 miles from New York City. Three thousand miles from the pain, betrayal, and heartache of a string of failed relationships. Including the relationship with my parents. Back in the Bay area, I can start fresh. Become one with the sea again. Rise or fall on the tide of my own choices. But on the first day of my bright new life, the darkest shadows of my past follow me through my office door. Both shadows have names. And I refuse to let these men into my future.

Break Up with Him, for Me
By: Whitney G.
Narrated by: Joe Arden, Erin Mallon
Please leave your message at the sound of the beep.... Penelope, I know that it's three o'clock in the morning, but I need to get this off my chest. I can't give you any more advice on landing this other guy, can't tell you another "sexy" thing that you should do, or suggest a new set of filthy words that you should text him late at night. As your best friend, I've reached my limit, and I can honestly say that he doesn't deserve you. I'm not saying all of this because I'm f--king jealous, or because he had the audacity to say that he makes more money than me.

Perfect Narration
By Roselyn_Reads on 11-11-21
He's my brother's best friend.
I'm his opposite in every way.
Being a pencil pusher isn't what I had in mind when I joined the FBI.
So when I finally get a chance to prove myself, I won't let anyone mess it up.
Especially Harrison Everhart, my brother's best friend and former Army Ranger.
He's quiet and lethal - but also incredibly loyal. Harrison doesn't mind bending the law to get things done. He'll do whatever it takes to do the right thing.
And that may just mess up my big break.
I know he's willing to fight with me, but if I give him my heart will he fight for me as well?
Fight for Me is an opposites-attract, military romance with action, adventure, and plenty of steam. This angsty listen is both fun and emotional, as Luna and Harrison bring justice to the bad guys and heat up the bedroom. This is the second book in the Everhart Brothers series by USA Today best-selling Author Claudia Burgoa.

What listeners say about Fight for Me
Marianela Aybar
Ooh, this was angsty but so much fun to read as we get Harrison and Luna in an opposites-attract totally hot story. It's suspenseful and exciting and even though it's a slow burn, you can't help but read until the end because the chemistry is just amazing. One of the narrators is new to me and I loved what she did with the character and bringing her to life. Both narrators really make the story pop and felt as though I was right there with them.

Heart-pounding and Steamy Romance!
What a delightful surprise this book was! I thought I was prepared, with my box of tissues handy, like I usually do before I start one of Ms. Burgoa's books. Harrison and Luna's story was much lighter, but just as thrilling, heartwarming, and passionate. It was everything I want my romance stories to be. Luna is a real conundrum. She is smart, fearless and tough, but then she is also sweet, sunshine and superstitious. She is a sexy puzzle that draws Harrison in right from their first hilarious meeting. Luna's brother, Tiago, has asked Harrison to watch over Luna while she is in New York, making her off limits. It isn't hard since he has kept his distance from relationships after losing his parents in the Twin Towers tragedy. He is only close to his brothers and best friend, Hazel. Their tight knit group is supportive, hilarious, and essential. When Luna easily assimilates into the fold, Harrison is helpless against his growing feelings. Harrison is a huge surprise to Luna as well. He is charming, sweet, and attentive. He supports her decisions, and their chemistry is explosive. I love them together! There are reasons for her visit to New York that develop in surprising ways and along with a few twists and turns, this journey is exhilarating. It is fun catching up with the Everhart family along with the bad@55 men in the security agency where Harrison works. This is such a fun, refreshing story that took me by surprise, when Ms Burgoa usually wrings every emotion out of us, along with several tissues. But it is a wonderful story in it's own rights. The storyline is intriguing with strong characters, little angst, enough mystery and drama to keep me turning the pages and the perfect amount of romance to make me swoon.
I loved this story even more after listening to Jason Clarke, and Stephanie Németh Parker's stellar narration! I always enjoy Clarkes' performances, but this is my favorite one yet. He nailed Harrison's character so perfectly and his inflections were spot on and heartfelt. He took my breath away as he brought out all the fun, sass, and emotion from Burgoa's story. This is my first listen to Stephanie Németh Parker's work and I was completely lost to her performance. Her smooth, sweet voice pulled me in right from the start, but it was her authentic accent and her fierce inflections, when needed, that made me an instant fan! I will definitely look for more of her work.
The Everhart family and friends are amazing and endearing and I can't wait for more about all of them!
This was an awesome read. Loved that they both were going through troubles from their pasts, but both gave each other the strength and trust to overcome them and unite their souls.
Narration was awesome too.

Back priming consists of applying a coat of primer to the reverse side and edges of boards before installing. Back priming helps prevent paint from peeling by reducing the amount of water vapor that passes through the wood.
When back priming, be sure to prime the ends of each piece after it has been cut to fit, since end grain will absorb the most moisture. Watch this video to find out more.
I wanted to prime the inside of my t 111 to help keep mold out. I understand from this site that it will also help so outside paint won't peel. Do i then need to cover the inside primed wood with a final coat of paint or is priming enough.
Is there any adverse effects to back side priming and edge priming of wood siding. Area Tulsa Oklahoma.
Hi. Thanks for the video. I just painted front and sides of my new pine wood siding. I'm new to this so I asked the guy at the paint shop if I needed to prime. He said two coats of the paint should be fine. Now I'm seeing that I should have primed. What will be the repercussions of not priming. Also, I haven't done the back yet. Should I use primer or use the paint that I currently have?
The paint is the highest quality exterior paint I could find. Thanks for any help.

40 Years of College Football's Sexual-Assault Problem
The case of FSU's Jameis Winston highlights a long and ugly history of universities dropping the ball on rape allegations.
Senior ReporterBio | Follow
Eve Edelheit/Tampa Bay Times /Zuma
Update: ESPN is reporting that Jameis Winston will not be charged in connection to an alleged sexual assault last December.
In November, TMZ reported that a former Florida State University student had accused the school's quarterback, Jameis Winston, of rape nearly a year ago. The accuser's lawyer says that after she came forward the Tallahassee police tried to dissuade her from pressing charges, warning her that the city is "a big football town" that might not treat her warmly if she leveled these allegations. Indeed, since her charges became public, some Seminoles fans have floated conspiracy theories that a rival school or Heisman Trophy contender may have put the accuser up to it. Prosecutors, for their part, will hold a press conference on Thursday afternoon to announce whether they'll go forward with the case.
Ultimately, Winston—whose DNA was found at the scene and who claims the sex was consensual—may not be charged. But the case has highlighted a disturbing and long-standing pattern in college football. At top football schools the sport is a major moneymaker, and many big-name universities (and law enforcement authorities in those jurisdictions) have too often shielded players accused of rape—even going so far as to smear and punish victims who speak out. Here's a brief guide to college football's sordid history of addressing sexual assault:
University of Notre Dame, 1974: An undergraduate accused six Fighting Irish players of rape. A university administrator called the woman, who later spent a month in psychiatric care, a "queen of the slums with a mattress tied to her back." No charges were filed.
Notre Dame, 1976: Two of the Notre Dame players accused in 1974, along with one other player, were accused of rape by a 17-year-old student. "I was told to shut up and mind my own business," a witness to the assault later told the National Catholic Reporter's Melinda Henneberger. The witness, a resident advisor at nearby St. Mary's College, had been informed by administrators that one of the players had been involved in another unreported rape, in addition to the previous 1974 incident. No charges were filed.
University of Colorado, 1989: Twenty-four Buffaloes were arrested in a three-year span under coach Bill McCartney for everything from rape to illegally skinning a rabbit. Another former player, linebacker Miles Kusayanagi, was accused of being "the Duct-Tape Rapist," responsible for eight sexual assaults in Boulder. (He was convicted on four counts of first-degree sexual assault.) McCartney told a local news reporter that another alleged rape by one of his players couldn't have been rape because it wasn't violent enough. Besides, he told Sports Illustrated, it could be worse: "You'll notice that we haven't had anybody shoot anybody."
University of Oklahoma, 1989: Three players were arrested and two convicted of raping a female student in a dorm room. Nigel Clay, one of the two players convicted of rape, told the Los Angeles Times in 1992: "Well, speaking for myself and a lot of other people, we felt like we were above the law…like OU would protect us from anything." Head coach Barry Switzer resigned, but was hired six years later as head coach of the Dallas Cowboys.
University of Nebraska, 1993: Defensive lineman Christian Peter's punishment for being convicted of third-degree sexual assault? He was put on probation and missed one exhibition game. Peter, a future NFL draft pick, was accused by two other women of sexual assault during his time on campus and arrested a total of eight times for a range of offenses. Kathy Redmond, one of Peter's accusers, received threatening phone calls and had her car vandalized for reporting the assault. (Peter's teammate, Lawrence Phillips, was suspended for physically assaulting his girlfriend, but was reinstated by Cornhuskers head coach Tom Osborne in time to play in the 1995 national title game.) Osborne went on to serve three terms in Congress. Peter was inducted into the Nebraska Football Hall of Fame in 2006.
Florida State, 1994: Kicker Scott Bentley was sentenced to 40 hours of community service for illegally recording a woman having sex. "This should serve as a clear message to our football players that this behavior and mistreatment of women will not be tolerated," said head coach Bobby Bowden, upon announcing that Bentley would be suspended for the summer but keep his scholarship and miss no games. Within a two-week period that spring, a Seminoles running back was accused of exposing himself to a woman while walking across campus, and a tight end was charged with rape (for which he was acquitted).
Virginia Tech, 1994: Freshman Christy Brzonkala ran into a wall of obstruction when she told administrators she had been raped by two Virginia Tech football players. The school, which was investigating her claims, dropped charges against one player after he threatened to sue because the school's code of conduct did not explicitly forbid sexual assault. His only penalty was a "one-hour educational session"—with the accuser. The other player was suspended for a year—only to have the suspension dropped before football season started. A campus spokeswoman publicly chided Brzonkala (who transferred) for coming forward six months after the incident. She sued the school under the Violence Against Women Act, only to see the relevant portion of the law struck down in federal court.
Idaho State University, 1995: Four Bengals football players were sentenced to community service and one-year of probation for statutory rape.
Appalachian State University, 1997: A female student alleged she had been raped by six football players, but the school's judicial board downgraded their offenses to "lewd conduct." One player was suspended from school; one was cleared; and the rest were placed on probation, allowing them to eventually return to the football team. ASU Chancellor Francis Borkowski's message to students that year: "If you are not in control of your life through indulgence in alcohol and drugs, then you are setting yourself up."
Colorado, 1997: No charges were filed by Boulder police after a woman alleged she was raped by a football recruit at a party, because witnesses were deemed too inebriated to be trustworthy. Boulder district attorney Mary Keenan later told the New York Times the incident was a consequence of "an ugly football subculture."
Louisiana State University, 1998: Star running back Cecil Collins was dismissed from the team after being accused of two sexual assaults in two weeks (the first was of a minor). He was sentenced to probation. That didn't stop another football program, McNeese State, from offering him a full scholarship, or the Miami Dolphins from drafting him. "Charming and likable, he has, nonetheless, seen his collegiate football career derailed by sexual assault charges and failed drug tests," the Sun-Sentinel reported in 1999. His career ended in 2001, when he was convicted of breaking into a woman's home to watch her sleep.
Oklahoma State University, 1999: Stillwater police asked a female student who accused four football players of rape to immediately sign a form stating that she would not press charges—just hours after coming forward. She filed a federal lawsuit two years later, eventually settling with the players, two of whom went on to play in the NFL.
United States Naval Academy, 2000: Three football players were accused of raping a female midshipman who passed out at an off-campus party. They avoided prosecution in exchange for leaving the academy.
University of Florida, 2000: Offensive line recruit Jason Respert was accused of breaking into a female student's bedroom and sexually assaulting her, but the charges were reduced to trespassing and simple battery. He did 40 hours of community service and went on to accept a full scholarship at the University of Tennessee.
Colorado, 2001: A female student alleged she was raped repeatedly by Buffaloes football players at an off-campus party for recruits. "It certainly is not the best timing," said a school vice president, noting that the team was trying to prepare for the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. Others blamed the victim. "There is also no question in my mind that the behavior of the 10 young people involved was the result of their own poor decisions under the influence of alcohol," head coach Gary Barnett said later—alluding to not just the football players and their recruits, but the three alleged victims.
University of Washington, 2001: After accusing a Huskies star of rape, university officials suggested that a female student sit down for one-on-one mediation with her alleged rapist instead of calling the cops. Although a jury later ruled in the school's favor three years later, its members had harsh words for school administrators in interviews with the Seattle Times. "When asked Thursday how the UW handled the case, one juror said: 'You want a quote? Piss poorly.'"
Notre Dame, 2002: A female student alleged that she was raped by three football players and one former member of the team. All were eventually expelled, but not before the school tried to dissuade the victim from pressing charges and prevented her from receiving counseling, according to the National Catholic Reporter. Safety Abram Elam, who served no prison time after being convicted of sexual battery, later enrolled at Kent State and went on to a seven-year career in the NFL.
Colorado, 2004: After former kicker Katie Hnida told Sports Illustrated she was repeatedly sexually assaulted by teammates, head coach Gary Barnett said she was sore about her shortcomings as a football player: "It was obvious Katie was not very good. She was awful. You know what guys do? They respect your ability. You can be 90 years old, but if you can go out and play, they'll respect you. Katie was not only a girl, she was terrible. OK? There's no other way to say it. She couldn't kick the ball through the uprights." In another incident, a female student told police that Barnett threatened to support his player "100 percent" if she came forward with her rape allegation. Barnett was briefly suspended, but returned to the team for another season. He was fired at the end of the 2005 season—for ending the season on a three-game losing streak. He took a $3 million buyout.
Brigham Young University, 2004: Four players were indicted and two players sent to trial in the gang rape of a fellow student. Although a teammate testified against them at the trial, the players were acquitted. In The System: The Glory and Scandal of College Football, Jeff Benedict and Armen Keteyian offered one reason why: "After the courtroom cleared out, three jurors were still around. Kelly [the prosecuting attorney] cornered them and asked why they had acquitted. 'The jury said they had suffered enough,' Kelly said. 'They lost their scholarships. They were kicked off the team.' Kelly said it was the most bizarre thing she'd ever heard—the idea that the players had been sufficiently punished when they lost their opportunity to play football. 'That's the power of college football,' she said."
Arizona State University, 2004: A female student working as a tutor for a summer program for football students sent an email to her supervisors about a freshman recruit: "I don't want to get raped in college and that is what Darnel [Henderson] makes me feel like when he is around me." By the end of the summer, ESPN reported, Henderson had been accused of sexually assaulting women in his dorm and exposing himself to female staffers. When confronted, his response was to tell a staff member that he felt he had to "show [women] their place." The university's response was to bow to head coach Dirk Koetter's request that Henderson keep his scholarship. When Henderson was accused of rape by a different student a year later, ASU police mysteriously waited three weeks to interview him despite deciding internally that Henderson was probably guilty. A university administrator accompanied Henderson to his meeting with investigators, and when the case was submitted to Maricopa County, the district attorney declined to pursue the case. ASU administrators, meanwhile, tried to destroy incriminating evidence—like the fearful email. Koetter, who sought to get Henderson a scholarship to another top-tier college football program, was fired two years later because he couldn't consistently beat top-25 opponents.
University of Tennessee-Chattanooga, 2005: Six Mocs football players were charged with raping a student. But head coach Rodney Allison let the players take the field against West Carolina University before informing Chancellor Roger Brown the players would be suspended. Brown said he was told the players had broken curfew. The charges were eventually thrown out.
University of Montana, 2010: Public records revealed that top administrators sought to cover up allegations that four football players had raped a female student. Vice President James Foley tried to punish the accuser under the school's code of conduct and instructed colleagues to refer to the incident as a "date rape" instead of a "gang rape." In separate incidents, a star quarterback and running back were both accused of rape. (The running back was later convicted; the quarterback continued practicing with the team after being charged, but was found not guilty.*) Athletic Director Jim O'Day showed reporters photos of a woman who had been bit by a star cornerback accused of sexual assault in an attempt to show them that it wasn't that bad. He was ultimately terminated with a full year's pay.
Notre Dame, 2010: "Messing with Notre Dame football is a bad idea," a friend of a football player texted Lizzy Seeberg, after she accused a Fighting Irish player of rape. Shortly thereafter, Seeberg took her life. The university president refused to meet with Seeberg's family after her death and school officials tried to smear her in the press. Another woman, who was taken to the hospital for a rape exam later that year, declined to file a complaint after receiving threatening texts from Notre Dame players. Head coach Brian Kelly, who chided a Chicago reporter for covering the story, took the team—and the two accused assailants—to the national championship game.
Pennsylvania State University, 2011: Jerry Sandusky.
United States Naval Academy, 2012: A female midshipman accused two football players of sexually assaulting her at an off-campus party. The accuser was disciplined for underage drinking, but the two football players were allowed to play the 2012 season. The female student is also required by academy rules to attend every home game that year. During the eventual Article 32 hearing, in which both players are court-martialed, the accuser is grilled on her oral-sex technique.
Vanderbilt University, 2013: Four Commodores players were charged with raping an unconscious woman in a player's dorm room. One player transferred to Alcorn State University, before being kicked off that team too because of developments in the Vanderbilt case, which is ongoing. In mid-November, Vanderbilt students filed a federal complaint alleging that the university had turned a blind eye to sexual assault on campus.
(h/t to Jessica Luther, who, as others have noted, has been on this beat for a while.)
Correction: This piece originally misstated the outcome of Montana quarterback Jason Johnson's trial. He was found not guilty.

Legend of the Nile Slots
The Nile river that runs through central Egypt has been witness to so much over the centuries. If only the river could talk it would be able to tell of all of the achievements of Cleopatra and the strengths of the Pharaohs. In this game has seven reels and seven paylines players enjoy the background of the blue Nile where they can see the cascading symbols of Ancient Egypt. The scarab, eye, Pharaohs, Anubis, Isis and Pyramids together with hieroglyphics all grace the reels as they cascade down with pieces of stone dust covering the reels. Pressing the spin button sees the reels cascade and any cluster of four or more symbols will be smashed away making room for more symbols to cascade into place.
Three Bonus Trails and Wild Pyramids
In Legend of the Nile slot game there are three different bonus trails in addition to the Pyramid wild that can take the place of other symbols and help complete a winning cluster. The pyramid on its own awards players high payouts from 50 to 6000 coins when four or more appear on the screen. The Ra symbol is one of power and when it appears on screen in multiples of eight or more it awards the players free spins and multipliers in addition to climbing its way up the power bar . With eight Ra symbols on screen the player can win 8 free spins and with 17 the player wins a multiplier of 400x the coin bet placed but the best is winning the progressive jackpot with 20 or more of the Ra symbols on screen. The progressive jackpot increases with every real money bet that is placed and can reach huge amounts.
Double Up After Every Win
There are two more bonus games in this Egyptian wonder game. Both the Anubis trail and the Isis trail light up when players land one or more of these symbols on screen. In the Anubis trail players can win from 10 to 5000 coins with four or more of the symbols appearing and in addition they an win free spins if the light on the meter shows. The Isis trail also awards from 10 -5000 coins with four or more of the Isis symbols on screen in addition to the free spins options. Both trails appear at the side of the cascading reels and can be seen lighting up if the player lands one of the symbols. The last special feature of this game is the double up option. After any winning spin the player has the option of choosing the double up feature. This allows him to try and double his winnings by guessing heads or tails of an ancient coin that is tossed. But with the double up feature it must be noted that the player can also lose his winnings for that spin. The Nile is a flowing river that stretches for miles and this Legend of the Nile can also be played endlessly giving the player hours of fun and enjoyment.

Florida Personal Injury Guide
Pedestrian Accidents in Florida
The hazards of crossing the street in Florida
Crosswalks can be hazardous to your health if drivers aren't paying attention. Conversely, if you are an attentive driver and a jaywalker darts into traffic, your life can change in an instant. Have you been hit by an inattentive driver? Learn more below and talk to a Florida attorney right here.
Nobody expects to go for a walk and get hit by a car, but it does happen – quite frequently.
In Florida, pedestrian accidents happen more frequently at night (visibility is always a factor) and in cities more often than in rural areas.
However, in cities, pedestrian accidents do not happen most often in intersections, like one might assume; they tend to happen on sidewalks, in crosswalks, or on the side of the road. These injuries can be overwhelming or fatal.
The driver may be held liable for damages in a negligence case, which could include:
Funeral expenses if the pedestrian passes away
Permanent disability or disfigurement
Loss of consortium
The injured plaintiff would have four years from the date of injury to bring a personal injury case (two years for wrongful death). Let's take a look at Florida pedestrian laws in detail.
Right of way laws for Florida pedestrians
According to the state's pedestrian laws, walkers must obey any official traffic control device unless otherwise directed by a police official. A device would include traffic signs, signals or pavement striping.
Additionally, if a sidewalk is readily available, pedestrians should not use the roadway. If sidewalks are not available or are under construction, however, they should use the shoulder on the left side of the roadway facing traffic.
When crossing the roadway, pedestrians are:
Subject to traffic signals;
Not allowed to leave the curb until the traffic signal tells them to;
Not allowed to yield to right-of-way vehicles;
To keep to the right half of crosswalks;
To cross the roadway at a right angle or by the shortest route (except within a marked crosswalk);
Only allowed to cross a roadway intersection diagonally unless authorized by an official traffic control device; and
Not allowed to cross between two adjacent intersections, except when they are in a marked crosswalk.
There are more rules, but they are very particular ("no pedestrian may jump or dive from a publicly owned bridge," for instance, and no person shall hitchhike on a public Florida street).
Enjuris tip: Pedestrians must obey traffic signals, signs and markers except when a police official tells them otherwise.
Why pedestrian accidents happen
When new drivers complete Driver's Education classes, they are focusing on the cars – oftentimes, they neglect to think about the pedestrians and the various pedestrian laws that are in place to protect them. The most that Driver's Ed focuses on is "Don't Hit That Person."
This can lead to forgetting about those laws later on when they are driving, or driving in a reckless fashion. Some of the more common reasons for these accidents include:
Slowdowns because of traffic, bad weather, or crowds
Yielding to a pedestrian in a crosswalk, but not stopping in time
Failing to come to a total stop at stop signs
Failing to maintain vehicle control
Enjuris tip: If you are walking at night, wear bright clothing that makes you stand out from surroundings. Reflective strips or headlamps are even more helpful. You might feel stupid, but stupid is better than injured or dead.
Types of pedestrian injuries
Serious injuries can happen when a car hits a pedestrian. Think about it – an enormous piece of steel is hitting a tiny person, and that person is usually not coming fully clothed from playing goalie at soccer practice. In comparison, the fact that anyone can survive is astonishing.
Severe injuries are frequent, because it's not like the victim is wearing protective armor. The forward momentum from the car is then transferred to the walker, which then causes him or her to be thrown several feet or yards. When the pedestrian strikes the ground, head injuries, broken bones and lacerations can occur.
The worst injuries include:
Fault in Florida
What happens if a pedestrian and a driver are both to blame for an accident? Like, let's say that someone darted into traffic at a place not designated for pedestrians, and there was no walking light to speak of. The driver had no way to stop in time. What do you do then?
Florida follows the pure comparative negligence standard, which means that even if a person is 99% responsible for an accident, he or she can collect that 1% of damages. A jury would look at the situation and apportion fault between the two parties based on the facts of the case.
If you have been in a Florida pedestrian accident, it would be worth your time to speak to a qualified personal injury attorney. Consider looking through the Florida law firm listings to find someone who can help you.

A View of Šaukėnai, Lithuania depicts a rural alleyway surrounded by timber buildings full of character and charm. On the left and right side of the street, we see residential houses, ornamented with carvings in the traditional fashion. At the end of the street, a grand eighteenth century wooden synagogue rises up, its triple roofs dominating the scene, demonstrating the importance of the building to the local community.
Judaism in Lithuania has had a long and turbulent history; from the early Jewish migrants settling there in the eighth century, there followed cycles of prosperity and persecution, unrest and understanding. The Grand Duchy of Lithuania ceased to exist in 1795, having been invaded and partitioned between the Russian and Habsburg Empires, and the Kingdom of Prussia. By the end of the nineteenth century, many Jews fled the Russian Empire to escape the pogroms which were engulfing the region, 2,000,000 leaving for the United States, United Kingdom and elsewhere between 1880 and 1914. Lithuania regained its independence in 1918, where followed a period of fierce border disputes with Germany and Poland externally, and fervent anti-Semetism internally. In 1940, the Soviet Union annexed the country, only for Germany to invade a year later. Of the 200,000 Jews remaining in Lithuania, 90% were to die in the Holocaust.
Šaukėnai in 1940 was home to around 700 people, 40% of them Jewish. On 26th June, German forces occupied the town, and in the first few days of occupation, Lithuanians entered the synagogue during prayers and dragged the men off to forced labour units. On 28th July, all the remaining Jews were forced from their homes and confined to the synagogue, where they were relieved of their valuables. They were then marched to a farm in the nearby estate of Shukishok, along with other Jewish families from surrounding villages. On 30th July, 200 of the 330 men, women and children on the farm were marched into the nearby forest wearing just their underclothes, led to a large pit recently dug by local peasants. They were shot and buried in a mass grave. The survivors were divided into work groups in local farms, but in August 1941 were rounded up and led to the ghetto in Žagarė. None were to escape the infamous massacre of 2nd October.
Dobuzhinsky sought an artistic education in Europe before settling in St. Petersburg in 1901, joining Mir Iskusstva the following year, to become one of the youngest and most gifted members of the group. He soon became noted for his cityscapes conveying the explosive growth and decay of the early twentieth-century city and this particular subject matter as well as his expressive technique set him apart from other members of the movement. From 1907 he expanded his activities to encompass stage design, teaching and book illustration. His most significant foray into the latter was illustrating Fyodor Dostoevsky's (1821-1881) White Nights, in which, as throughout his career, 'Dobuzhinsky interpreted the city as the real hero of the story'.² In 1924 he left Russia for Lithuania and subsequently travelled throughout Europe before finally settling in the United States.

The Workers National Democratic Party (WDP) () is a workers' political party in Egypt formed shortly after the Egyptian Revolution of 2011. It is backed by the Federation of Egyptian Trade Unions and forms part of the Coalition of Socialist Forces. The party name is sometimes translated in English as Democratic Workers Party, Democratic Labour Party or Labour Democratic Party.

History
The party was initiated by the leftist front Hashd and the Revolutionary Socialists (RS) in response to the country's growing strike movement which preceded the revolution. WDP spokesperson Kamal Khalil says "Most leftist attempts to form a party include intellectuals as major players and a number of workers as members... This party aims at having workers as the main players and leaders of the party joined by a number of intellectuals."

Politics
Although the RS have been instrumental in the formation of the party, the WDP does not present itself as a revolutionary party. Party officials claim socialist revolution "is not feasible in the current political environment", citing the Egyptian working class' "lack of political experience and the underdevelopment of the labour movement". They instead advocate the re-nationalization of industry and more genuine worker democracy. Although not a self-proclaimed revolutionary party, the WDP cites revolutionary language and theory. For example, on May Day, 2011 - the first May Day after Mubarak - the party chanted "A workers' revolution against the capitalist government" while marching to Tahrir Square. The same day, Hossam el-Hamalawy, a representative of the party, called for "a complete halt to the neoliberal program." And Ahmed Ezzat, one of the founders of the WDP has admitted "Lenin's What is to be Done and April Notes helped shape our strategy, as did Marx's theories". Ezzat has also labeled the Muslim Brotherhood "counter-revolutionaries".

On 10 May 2011, the WDP agreed to enter into a "socialist front" with four other Egyptian leftist groups called the Coalition of Socialist Forces. The new grouping includes the Revolutionary Socialists, the Egyptian Communist Party, The Socialist Party of Egypt and the Popular Democratic Alliance Party.

Demands
The party's most important principles are "the respect of all Egyptians' religious beliefs and bringing an end to discrimination on the basis of religion, color or sex." The re-nationalization of industry is one of the WDP's key demands but unlike under Gamal Abdel Nasser, where the heads of state-owned factories were appointed by the President, the WDP calls on workers of these factories to appoint their own managers. The WDP stands for abolishing privatization and monopoly policies, and redirecting development plans to benefit "underserved social classes". The party is also coordinating with other forces to establish a higher minimum wage for Egyptian workers, the establishment of trade unions independent of the state, and to improve working conditions in all workplaces. They are also calling for "combating administrative corruption and reevaluating Egypt's economic ties to Israel". Their slogan is "the workers must be united".

Legality
Under the current Political Parties Law, the WDP may not acquire official recognition, due to the law banning parties forming on a class basis. Also, party leaders are required to raise at least  to publish the names of at least 5,000 founders in two widely circulated dailies. The WDP sees this as the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces way of discriminating against the poor and labour movement: "This shows that the old mentality is still there and that the government is siding with businessmen rather than workers." The WDP is expected to defy the legislation and launch their party as soon as they recruit at least 10,000 workers and 10,000 farmers.
