Loire Valley Wine Region
The Loire Valley wine region in France is a massive wine growing region that is a conglomeration of dozens of appellations that follow along the Loire River valley that starts practically in the middle of the country and winds its way west all the way to the Atlantic coast. It is really worth your effort to explore and learn about because there are so many great producers and regions. Because many of them are not that well known, the prices for all but a few of the rarest are still reasonable, even for some outstanding wines.
While the wines emanating from this area are often collectively called Loire Valley wine, there is such heterogeneity in the types and styles of wines produced that it truly is unfair to generalize them as such. They really do deserve their own discussion and study and each appellation produces its own unique voice. If you return to the French wine regions page you can see many of the notable individual Loire Valley Wine appellations listed there with links to more information.
Below, we will give you a bit of an overview to this large and fascinating wine growing region. If you are thinking of traveling, the Loire is a great destination. While it varies a lot from town to town, this area is know for its beautiful castles and great natural beauty as well.
Loire Valley Wine Region Wines and Grapes: There are literally dozens of different styles of wine produced in the Loire. Most appellations focus on one or two individual styles, often from a single grape variety which is grown there. Therefore, below is a brief run down of some of the most famous types of grapes that are grown in the Loire and some of the notable appellations they come from as well as a brief mention of the wine styles produced there from that grape. Sound complicated? It can be with so many unique wine growing regions, but read on and it will start to make sense.
Sauvignon Blanc: One of the most famous grapes of the Loire is Sauv Blanc. Many wine drinkers don't even realize it is a Loire grape since it has been adopted by so many other regions in the new and old world alike. For example, California, New Zealand, South Africa and many others make many fine examples of the grape. Yet, the most classic and arguably the best come from Loire regions as well as Bordeaux (not in the Loire) where it makes up at least some of the blend of most white Bordeaux wines.
In the Loire, the two most famous appellations for Sauv Blanc are certainly Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, although it is also the principal grape in a number of other appellations including Quincy, Cheverny, Reuilly, and others. In general, the grape produces wines that are crisp and dry with a taut mineral or citrus acid component. Their specific flavors can vary but they are often fruity, with an aroma similar to gooseberries, along with some non-fruit aromas like hay, grass, gunflint or slate. Like most white Loire valley wines, most wines see little or no oak influence and remain bright and fresh, zesty and lively.
Chenin Blanc: Chenin blanc really reaches its peak of perfection in the wines of the Loire Valley. Although it has been grown elsewhere, it rarely achieves much success in other regions. Although it can be grown in many regions of the Loire, it is certainly most famous for two general regions. Not far from the city of Tours, Vouvray is one of the most famous. Further west, the general region of Anjou, that contains several small appellations, is also mostly Chenin blanc. Some of the famous appellations here include Savennières, Quarts de Chaume, Coteaux du Layon and others.
The Loire Valley wines made from Chenin blanc can vary quite a bit. It is a grape capable of making everything from bone dry wines of great mineral intensity to sticky sweet dessert wines, and everything in between. For example, the dry wines of Vouvray Sec and Savennieres have an intensity to them that can be breathtaking with mineral and other nuances and can be capable of long aging. On the other end of the spectrum, the late harvest Vouvray and Quarts de Chaumes are deep and rich with intense sweetness, yet almost always balanced by firm acidity that keeps them from being cloying. Even with this one grape, it is thus hard to generalize about its style. In general, the best Chenin wines are vibrant and fresh with a succulent, pure fruit and layers of complexity.
Melon de Bourgogne: Although this often misunderstood grape is named for Burgundy (Bourgogne), it is best known for its Loire Valley wines, most notably those from Muscadet. I say it is misunderstood because grown almost anywhere else on the planet and it is a boring, insipid wine that is far from noble. However, in the best hands and from the best vineyards in the western edge of the Loire valley, this "lowly" grape is capable of greatness. While there are oceans of banal wine made in Muscadet, there are also hidden gems that are still relatively inexpensive since they are largely misunderstood and underappreciated. For less than $20, the best Muscadet can be stunning, with a pristine, clarity and vibrancy to them. They are not big or fruity wines. But what they lack in fruity complexity they make up for in minerality, sea brine, granite and more. These shimmering wines are classic pairings to raw seafood and other lighter fare.
Cabernet Franc: A lot of people think of mostly white wines when they think of Loire Valley wine, probably because of the popularity of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé. However, there are some stunning red wines grown as well, most notably from the Cabernet Franc grape, a cousin of the more famous Cabernet Sauvignon. While Cab Franc is also grown in Bordeaux, it is usually not much more than a minor component of those red blends, with Cab Sauv and Merlot often making up much more of the wine. However, in some appellations in the Loire, it is the predominant grape. Most notably, the wines of Chinon and Bourgueil are capable of producing fascinating wines that vary from light and fruity to dark, deep and complex. The most serious of these wines are capable of great complexity and can age quite a long time. But many are made to be fruitier and more approachable young as well.
Other Grapes: The 4 grapes above make up the majority of the most famous and fine wines of the Loire Valley. However, a number of other grapes are grown in various appellations. Some, like Romorantin in Cour-Cheverny, are quite unknown, even by frequent wine drinkers. Others, like Pinot Noir in Sancerre, are famous but much more associated with other regions in France (such as red Burgundy for Pinot Noir).

Autumn Escapes – Lake Constance
Germany, Travel Guides | 19 July, 2017 | 0 | by Julietta Henderson
If you're not quite ready to kiss the last shreds of summer goodbye, a short break to beautiful Lake Constance can provide the perfect opportunity to hold on to the dream just a little bit longer. In fact, autumn is one of the loveliest times to visit this region, with clear, mild days and cool, crisp evenings.
Sound sublime? It really is. But in a breathtaking location in the foothills of the Alps, with its tranquil toes dipping into the cultures of three countries, it can be a little confusing when you're deciding on a base. Allow us to elaborate and make your decision from there.
Water Water Everywhere…
Well not quite everywhere, but the unique geography of Lake Constance sees its approximately 270km shoreline encompass parts of Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The lake is fed by the Rhine and is made up of three distinct areas: the Obersee (upper), the Untersee (lower) and the Seerhein (its connection to the Rhine).
The following towns set around the lake typify the diversity of this region. Our information may help you decide where to stay, but then again it just may make things harder! We make no promises…
Germany: Friedrichshafen, Überlingen, Konstanz
With more than half of the shoreline belonging to Germany, the charming lakeside towns of Friedrichshafen, Überlingen and Konstanz have plenty to offer in terms of cultural and historical attractions to complement their stunning location.
Friedrichshafen's claim to fame is its status as the home of the infamous Zeppelin airships. As well as the dedicated Zeppelin Museum, a visit to the Baroque Schlosskirche, the town's former monastery, makes for a pleasant cultural interlude.
In Überlingen, traces of medieval history remain throughout its well-preserved Old Town. In the nineteenth century it was well patronised as a health resort for the aristocracy, but today it's much admired for the architecture of several notable buildings, including the Gothic cathedral and the wistful Rococo church of Birnau, which overlooks the lake.
Konstanz is the largest town on the lake, close to the border with Switzerland, and is renowned for its cultural offerings and impressive architecture. Among its most notable buildings are the eleventh-century Konstanz Minster, the Rathaus, the Hohenzollernhaus and the Haus Zum Rosgarten.
Insider tip: The best way to get a taste of all three of these lovely towns (and more) is to take a boat trip to cruise around the lake. Trips of various durations depart from the harbours of each town.
Hotel Halm Konstanz: For those staying on the German side, the Hotel Halm Konstanz is just a few minutes' walk from the lake in the middle of the Old Town. Set in an historic building, the hotel's spacious rooms are elegantly appointed with some offering views of the lake. The spectacular décor of the onsite restaurant and bar creates an air of old world opulence and grandeur.
Austria: Bregenz
For lovers of contemporary culture, Bregenz holds extensive appeal. The town's modern art gallery, the Kunsthaus, offers a striking contrast to the breathtaking backdrop of the lake, and the Vorarlberg Museum is home to an impressive collection that includes everything from Bronze Age artefacts to Roman relics from the first century.
The town is famous for its annual summer festival, when thousands of visitors flock to enjoy operatic performances from all over the world – including events held on the floating Lake Stage.
The cable car, which trundles up the Pfänder Mountain behind the town, is the ideal way to ascend to more than 1,000m to take in far-reaching views. For those who prefer to keep their feet on the ground, a stroll around the promenade takes you past the busy harbour and around the edge of the lake.
Hotel Messmer: Located right in the heart of town, the Hotel Messmer is just a short, relaxing walk to the shores of the lake and only five minutes from the cable car. With spacious rooms, two onsite restaurants and a delightful outdoor dining area, this lovely hotel offers a warm, traditional Vorarlberg welcome.
Switzerland: Kreuzlingen, Arbon
Kreuzlingen is actually the culmination of three smaller medieval towns that have gradually morphed together, making it the largest town on the Swiss side of the lake. Even aside from its beautiful backdrop it's a visually appealing town, with some lovely architecture that includes St. Ulrich's basilica and the picturesque fourteenth-century Bernrain Chapel.
Kreuzlingen also has a rich maritime history; the Lake Museum at Seeburg Park is an excellent place to delve into this. Arenberg Castle, where Napoleon spent some of his exile, is just a couple of kilometres away.
Heading in the direction of Austria, Arbon's eclectic mix of medieval and Art Nouveau architecture provides it with a quirky, yet very charming, appearance. It is perhaps most famous for the festival that takes place around the lake every year, with its grand finale fireworks extravaganza. Arbon is also the perfect base from which to visit the magnificent abbey of the nearby World Heritage-protected village of St. Gallen.
Hotel Swiss: The convivial Hotel Swiss is set in the centre of Kreuzlingen, within an easy stroll of the lake – you can even take a wander to Konstanz at just 1km away across the lake! With light, spacious rooms, free Wi-Fi and an excellent onsite restaurant (including vegan options), it's the attentive staff of the Hotel Swiss that make an excellent experience truly outstanding.
How to Get to Lake Constance
The best way of getting to Lake Constance will, naturally, depend on where you choose your base.
If you're staying on the German side, the most convenient option is to fly into Stuttgart (STR) Airport. Flights from the UK to Stuttgart take around 1 hour 45 minutes, with several carriers flying regular routes, including easyJet, Air Berlin and Eurowings.
For those who choose to stay on the Swiss side of the lake, the best airport to fly into is Zurich (ZRH). Direct flights from the UK to Zurich Airport take around an hour and a half and are operated by easyJet, British Airways and Swiss Air.
Wherever you land, the fastest, most hassle-free way of getting to any of the towns around Lake Constance is on a shared or private Shuttle Direct transfer. Make a booking online before you leave home and a driver will be there to meet to and take you the rest of the way to your accommodation. Depending on where you're staying, the very picturesque journey will take around an hour to an hour and 45 minutes.

Is Crazy Contagious?
Posted on August 25, 2013 by lcr31
When you quit your full-time, benefits paying job and tell people that you want to be a writer they, understandably, look at you like you're crazy. Which is okay, because you are crazy. All good logic dictates that this is would be classified as a bad idea. Or, at the very least, not very smart. Then when you decide to go to back to school and get a writing degree the men in white jackets really start to circle. In two easy steps you have gone from a person who receives money on a regular basis to a person who pays money on a regular basis. Again, on paper, not very smart.
But paper is exactly where the alchemy starts to happen. I started writing—on purpose, with a purpose—and reading, and talking about reading and writing critically with my professors and classmates. I was spinning my own intellectual gold. And no, I can't write a check with that gold just yet, but I have a real shot of doing something that makes me profoundly happy.
That sounds incredibly hokey, even to me, and I'm a person who cries at TV commercials. But in addition to the work I am doing, I've met some truly amazing people, who, like me, are doing this crazy thing that makes no sense. One friend in particular had a story like mine. She was working at a good job making good money with a 401(k) plan and medical insurance. And she quit. Just like me.
"I just didn't want to do it anymore," she said when we first discovered our shared insanity. "I needed to make a clean break from my old life to my new one."
Recently, she and I visited Sunnyside, Washington Irving's home in the Hudson Valley. Irving built his charming little cottage on the banks of the Hudson just north of New York City at a time when he was one of the most famous men in America. The tour guide, a historical interpreter in period dress, explained that strangers would walk the wooded path and knock on his door uninvited.
"I guess they hoped some of the genius would rub off on them," she said. She laughed. My friend and I joined in, but only as polite cover because we didn't want to be found out.
"Our Washington Irving," she said, always referring to him as 'our' Washington Irving, "…was the first American to earn his living solely from writing." The guide explained that he had tried his hand first at the family business and then as a lawyer. But neither really stuck.
My friend and I exchanged glances again. Her eyes got wide and I caught a glimpse of a recognizable spark. I knew we were thinking the same thing. No, not that either of us would be the next Washington Irving, but that sometimes going all in does pay off. Even Irving had to be brave—or crazy—enough to try.
Inside Sunnyside, in the room with Irving's desk and built-in napping spot, the guides tell the story of Washington Irving and a famous letter he sent to Edgar Allen Poe. Poe, as the fable goes, was struggling to find anyone to publish his stories. He sent them to the famous man of American letters for feedback. Irving replied with an encouraging letter urging Poe to not give up and to keep writing. And, as every 8th Grade English student knows, Poe did.
The postscript to the story is that later someone asked Irving about what he saw in Poe. He replied something like this: "The stories were strange and I'm not sure I understood them, but I never want to discourage anyone from writing."
I, like our friendly guide in her enormous hoop skirt, am paraphrasing, but the sentiment remains the same. Irving knew this writing thing is a crazy business. He also knew that sometimes all it takes to keep going is a kindred spirit to smile in your direction. In my case, I not only have some amazing new writer friends, I also have an incredibly supportive family and my old, dear friends who probably knew all along I would do something like this.
Sure, we're crazy. Sure, it might blow up in our faces. But I don't think so. One of my oldest friends, who was with us for the tour at Sunnyside, took our picture by Irving's gazebo. "It's the two writers!" she said when we looked back at the digital images from that day. When I look at the picture I do see writers, but I also see alchemists, mad scientists, and yes, strangers knocking on Irving's door hoping some of the genius rubs off.

Джозеф Лафайетт «Джо» Мик (; 1810 — 20 июня 1875) — американский первопроходец, маунтинмен, проводник и политик.

Ранние годы
Джозеф Мик родился в 1810 году в округе Вашингтон, штат Виргиния. В возрасте 18 лет он присоединился к Уильяму Саблетту и  Меховой компании Скалистых гор. Приблизительно в 1829 году партию охотников в районе реки Йеллоустоун, в которую входил Мик, атаковали черноногие. В результате нападения трапперы оказались рассеяны и Мик в одиночку продолжил путешествие. Он исследовал район, который сегодня известен как Йеллоустонский национальный парк.

В 1838 году Мик женился на дочери вождя племени не-персе — её настоящее имя неизвестно, он называл её Вирджиния. После того, как торговля бобровыми шкурками пошла на спад, Мик, вместе со своими товарищами — Калебом Уилкинсом и Робертом Ньюэллом — отправился на Орегонскую землю. В форте Холл они повстречали группу эмигрантов, которые также направлялись в Орегон. Трапперы согласились провести переселенцев до миссии Уитмена, которая располагалась около форта Валла-Валла.

Жизнь в Орегоне
На Орегонской земле Мик стал одеваться как франкоканадские трапперы — в частности он стал носить ярко-красный пояс. У местных индейцев были хорошие отношения с франкоканадскими охотниками и торговцами, и таким образом, он хотел, чтобы его принимали за одного из них.

В 1841 году Мик поселился в долине Туалатин, находящейся к юго-западу от Портленда. В 1843 году, когда было сформировано Временное правительство, он был избран в законодательное собрание и назначен шерифом.

В конце осени 1847 года индейцы кайюсы и юматилла напали на миссию Уитмена. Это событие стало известно как Уитменовская резня. Индейцы убили миссионера Маркуса Уитмена и членов его семьи, а также взяли в плен десятки белых, где они подверглись жестокому обращению. Дочь Мика — десятилетняя Хелен Мар Мик — умерла в плену у кайюсов. Атака на миссию Уитмена вызвала Войну кайюсов между поселенцами и индейцами.  После этих событий Джозеф Мик отправился в Вашингтон. Находясь в столице Соединённых Штатов, он встретился с президентом Джеймсом Ноксом Полком. В разговоре с Полком, Мик убеждал президента в том, что Орегонскую землю необходимо преобразовать в Инкорпорированную организованную территорию США. Весной 1848 года Джозеф Лейн был назначен губернатором, а Мик федеральным маршалом образованной территории. Он занимал эту должность в течение пяти лет. Мик принял участие в Войне якима и организовал отряд орегонских добровольцев.

Джозеф Мик скончался 20 июня 1875 года в своём доме вблизи от города Хилсборо, штат Орегон, в возрасте 65 лет.

Q: system of second order differential equations How to solve the system of two second order differential equations?:
$$x''(t)=f(x',x,y',y,t),\qquad y''(t)=g(x',x,y',y,t)$$
Is there any numerical method, algorithm?

A: The usual trick is to write this system as a first-order one by setting $$U=(U_1,U_2,U_3,U_4)=(X,Y,X',Y')$$ and getting $$U'=(U_3,U_4,f(U_3,U_1,U_4,U_2,t),g(U_3,U_1,U_4,U_2,t)) = F(U,t)$$ Then you can use any of the several goods numerical methods, such as Runge–Kutta.

Symphony of Frank
A Film by Tracy Dahlby and Eli Reed
Meet Frank Owens, barber, raconteur, philosopher with clippers in hand. This documentary film, now in production, tells the story of a man's genius for orchestrating a running conversation in which Americans from different walks of life tell their stories, debate the issues of the day, and reveal our common humanity. It's a symphony--and a genial act of resistance against today's digital distractions.
Based on a book by author David Halberstam, this eight-part TV event looked below the nostalgic surface of America's signature decade to key political, economic and cultural developments that shaped post-World War II life. It tells the story of such "influencers" as Betty Friedan, Joe McCarthy, Martine Luther King, Jack Kerouac, Elvis Presley, Hugh Hefner and Grace Metallious. I served as a series director and co-creator with Alex Gibney. The show debuted on The History Channel in 1997. Click here for a sample.
SportsCentury:
50 Greatest Athletes
Debuting in 1999, this ESPN series told the stories behind the glittering facades and hero worship of some the top athletes of the 20th century. I had primary responsibility for episodes on football phenom Jim Brown, boxers Sugar Ray Robinson and Joe Louis, and basketball's inimitable "Dr. J," Julius Erving. For my producer's role, I was the lucky recipient of a Sports Emmy Award. The series also won a George Foster Peabody Award. Episodes available on YouTube. Click here for a sample.
This10-part PBS series explored the evolution of America's relationship with Asia at a point when American politicians, policymakers and ordinary citizens were puzzling over how to size up the promise and challenges of potent new geopolitical forces. Debuting in 1992, it was produced by Alex Gibney and his team at Jigsaw Productions. I served in the role of Special Correspondent. Episodes available on YouTube. Click here for a sample.

'Gangs and the Military: Gangsters, Bikers, and Terrorists with Military Training' by Carter F. Smith Released (September 15, 2017)
Gangs and the Military: Gangsters, Bikers, and Terrorists with Military Training by Carter F. Smith
From the Author: The book documents the long history of gang members (street gangs, outlaw motorcycle gangs, and domestic terrorist – extremists) with military training in parallel with the history of the United States. Gang members have served in the military in each of the wartime eras and they continue to serve today. Some are trying to use the military to get out of the gang life – many are not. The criminals not only tarnish the reputation of the military, they increase the dangerousness of our communities.
Description: Over the past several decades, there has been a continuous and growing focus on street gangs, outlaw motorcycle gangs, and domestic terrorist and extremist groups. Many of these groups have members with military training, and some actively recruit from current and former military veterans and retirees. That military experience adds to the dangerousness of veteran gang members, as well as those groups they associate with.
Gangs in the Military (Fort Hood). -Carter F. Smith (April 18, 2011)
"An internal report, obtained by Military.com through a Freedom of Information Act request, shows that gang members were tied to dozens of Army felony law enforcement reports and more than 100 criminal investigations in fiscal 2018, the latest year for which data is available. While these reports and investigations make up less than 1% of all Army law enforcement incidents, the new report shows that the little-discussed problem of military gang activity continues to be a headache for base commanders and other service leaders." –Army Street Gang Activity is Increasing, Internal Report Report Shows, Military.com (August 17, 2020)

The Baltimore Sun published "Retired APG general: The players change, the 'GAM' remains the same" (May 23, 2013)
Posted on May 23, 2013 by Administrator
Sixteen years ago, Robert Shadley, then a major general in the Army, uncovered disturbing news from an important Army training facility at Aberdeen Proving Ground.
Drill sergeants and other instructors were regularly using their power to get sexual favors from young female trainees, or sometimes even assaulting or raping them.
After spending two years investigating sex assaults at APG, Shadley says not much has changed in the Army a decade and a half later.
"The sexual assaults are not about the sex. It's all about the abuse of power. You have the propensity of some men, and women, to do that kind of thing, and then you put them in an organization that has a hierarchical structure that talks about the importance of following the chain of command. It's just like pouring gasoline onto a fire." -Robert D. Shadley

Fort Drum Army Pfc. Gary Kalinofski Died of a Non-Hostile Gunshot Wound at Camp Magrath While on a Peacekeeping Mission in Kosovo (March 4, 2002)
Army Pfc. Gary S. Kalinofski, 21, died of a gunshot wound at Camp Magrath near Pristina, Kosovo on March 4, 2002. The military casualty announcement confirmed the gunshot wound was not a result of engagement with hostile forces. Pfc. Kalinofski's home of record was listed as Fayetteville, North Carolina. Pfc. Kalinofski served in Kosovo since November 2001 in a peacekeeping mission role on behalf of A Company, Task Force 1-32nd Infantry Regiment at Fort Drum, New York. According to the book Army Wives by Tanya Biank, the Army Criminal Investigation Division (CID) ruled that Pfc. Gary Kalinofski died as a result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Gary was survived by his parents; his dad also served in the Army and was in Kosovo at the time Gary took his own life. The Army Wives author shared that Gary's parents were interviewed by Army CID but they didn't have any insight or knowledge to help Army CID understand why Gary chose to die by suicide.
Editor's Note: There was no Department of Defense press release for the announcement of the death of Army casualty Pfc. Gary S. Kalinofski in Kosovo.

Die for Me: The Terrifying True Story of the Charles Ng & Leonard Lake Torture Murders by Don Lasseter | Book Review (May 1, 2000)
"Die for Me" by Don Lasseter is for sale on Amazon.
Read "Die for Me" by Don Lasseter while camping this past weekend.
Description: "They killed for thrills… It began with a shoplifting arrest. it led to a search of a remote California hamlet called Wilseyville that yielded six bodies, 45 pounds of burned bone fragments, and a child's liver. Then, horror-struck investigators made the most chilling discovery of all: the videotape that showed what Charles Ng and Leonard Lake did to their handcuffed female victims before snuffing them out. Here is the the terrifying story of one of the most notorious serial killer teams in American history – a pair of maniacs whose orgy of sex crimes, torture, and murder took the lives of at least sixteen victims. From Charles Ng's strange Hong Kong childhood to his twisted friendship with co-conspirator Leonard Lake, DIE FOR ME is the graphic portrait of two monsters who walked among us – Lake, who took his own life, and Ng, who will die by lethal injection."
Here's my thoughts:
This book was a tough read because both of these guys were manipulative. They lured their victims after gaining their trust. It was nauseating but an educational read. California spent millions of taxpayer dollars prosecuting one of them because the military made a fatal mistake.

Innocent Victims: The True Story of the Eastburn Family Murders by Scott Whisnant Published | Book Review (March 1, 1993)
Innocent Victims by Scott Whisnant (Amazon Books)
Fort Bragg, North Carolina, had seen it all before – when Dr. Jeffrey MacDonald was convicted of savagely slaying his wife and children. Now another officer's wife had been raped and murdered, another pari of children viciously butchered. And another member of the military was brought to trial. This time the state had no trouble winning a conviction. Tim Hennis was found guilty and sentenced to death. Only Hennis' parents, wife, and dedicated defense team refused to give up. Piece by piece they ripped the state's case to shreds, revealing a stunning story of perversion of justice, false witnesses, hidden evidence, and, incredibly, a baby-sitter who had a fascination with Dr. Jeffrey MacDonald. With the brutal truth and chilling suspense of Fatal Vision, this riveting account recreates a vicious crime, the behind-the-scenes story of its investigation, the compelling drama of one of the very few men ever released from Death Row, and an unsolved mystery that still casts a spell of terror. (Innocent Victims by Scott Whisnant)
I read the Innocent Victims book while I was camping and honestly I could not put it down. I was reminded of it while listening to the Military Murder Podcast and inspired to read it because of the level of detail available in the book. It was a great read because there were so many twists and turns in the case. If I didn't know about the fact that a DNA match to Timothy Hennis helped prove his guilt in a 2010 military trial, I would have been convinced Timothy Hennis was wrongfully convicted. Timothy Hennis was luckier than most because he had the staunch support of his adopted family and wife Angela, who all believed wholeheartedly in his innocence. This case is one for the history books because it's not every day someone is found guilty in a civilian trial, then found not guilty in a civilian trial on appeal, and then tried again by the military in a third trial and found guilty. Timothy Hennis was sentenced to death and is one of four service members languishing on military death row. The military hasn't executed anyone since they hanged Army Pvt. John Bennett on April 13, 1961.
Journalists and scholars have questioned the military's ability to try someone found not guilty in a civilian court because of the double jeopardy concerns. Due to the fact that Timothy Hennis was found not guilty in a second civilian trial, he was allowed to resume his career in the U.S. Army and retired as a MSG in 2004. As far as we know, Timothy Hennis committed no other crimes and was well respected by those he served with. It would be because of his retirement from the military, the Army was able to bring him back on active duty status and try him in a third trial for the murders of the Eastburn family. This practice is also controversial. On appeal Timothy Hennis challenged the military's jurisdiction to recall him to active duty status to prosecute him and questioned the double jeopardy concerns. In January 2020, an Appeals Court decided military retirees can be recalled to active duty status and court-martialed. In February 2020, the U.S. Court of Military Appeals rejected Hennis' constitutional rights challenges to the military court's jurisdiction to try him.
Is it constitutional for retirees to be court martialed? Highest military court to decide soon. (Connecting Vets, July 8, 2020)

The term Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaa'ah originated from two words, namely "Ahlus Sunnah" and "al-Jamaa'ah," which indicates a group that adheres to the beliefs of Prophet sallAllahu 'alayhi wasallam or following his way of life sallAllahu 'alayhi wasallam and his Companions radiyAllaahu 'anhum ajma'een especially the Rightly Guided Caliphs whom were groomed and trained by Rasulullah sallAllahu 'alayhi wasallam himself.
The beliefs of Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaa'ah encompasses Islamic teachings pertaining to 'aqeedah, Sharee'ah, and akhlaaq, which was taught since the time of the Prophet sallAllahu 'alayhi wasallam and his Companions. The term Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaa'ah was coined and concluded by the scholars from a hadeeth.
Based on the narration above, combined with various narrations having the same meaning, the scholars have concluded that the definition of those that strictly follow the sunnah of the Messenger and the Companions are referred as Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaa'ah.
Their 'aqeedah is deeply rooted within the teachings brought by Rasulullah sallAllahu 'alayhi wasallam and his Companions radiyAllaahu 'anhum ajma'een. The 'aqeedah of Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaa'ah is deemed as the teachings that is true, guided, safe, clear, and having no confusion within itself. On the contrary, all other teachings are colluded, misguided, and erroneous, prone to stray far beyond the teachings of alQur'an and as-Sunnah.
Firm belief and interpretation of Islamic rulings based on primary sources, namely alQur'an, as-Sunnah, ijmaa', and qiyaas, without rejecting or reducing the role of any one of them.
Firm adherence to Islamic teachings that include matters pertaining to imaan that is 'aqeedah; Islam that is shara'; and ihsaan that is akhlaaq.
Clinging onto al-Qur'an that was compiled by the Companions radiyAllaahu 'anhum ajma'een especially that which is known as Mus-haf 'Uthmaani, and holding firm onto as-Sunnah especially ahaadeeth that was collected by the great imams such as Imam al-Bukhaari, Imam Muslim, Imam at-Tirmidhi, Imam Abu Dawood, Imam an-Nasaa'ie, Imam ibn Maajah, and others that are also recognized rahimahumullah.
Believing that the Companions are all trustworthy and just without declaring any one of them as apostates, especially the Rightly Guided Caliphs, whom are Abu Bakr, Umar ibn al-Khattaab, 'Uthmaan ibn 'Affaan, and 'Ali bin Abi Taalib radiyAllaahu 'anhum ajma'een.
To believe and have firm imaan upon Unseen matters, especially those that are affirmed by al-Qur'an and asSunnah, such as the torment of the grave, the reward of Paradise, the torment of Hellfire, and many more.
Not easily and hastily declaring kufr upon the Muslims or ahlul Qiblah (those having Ka'bah as their qiblah) except with full knowledge, established proofs, and justice.
Moderation in beliefs and practice, which is not being too extreme nor being negligent.
Ideologies that violate some or all of the previously mentioned matters e.g. rejecting alQur'an and as-Sunnah, interpreting Islam based on rational (reason) due to whim desire, renouncing the Companions as apostates, adopting extreme views are all rejected and lies outside the fold of Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaa'ah.
There are 2 main schools of aqidah in the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaah i.e. Maturidi and Ash'ari. Hanafis mainly follow the Maturi school and Shafiis and Malikis follow the Ash'ari school. The two schools are very close that the Hanafis are also considered to follow the Asha'ri school. Righteous scholars in the past have documented invaluable evidence of the aqidah e.g. the book Umm al-Barahin was written by Imam Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Yusuf al-Sanusi al-Husayni al-Maliki on the Ash'ari aqidah. Imam Abu Ja'far at-Tahawi had explained in greater detail the aqidah of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaah. Sheikh Ahmad Marzuki al-Maliki explained the aqidah of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaah through him poem "Aqidatul Awam" (The creed of the common people).

THE CONFEDERACY has been overrun by the Undead. The President wields an axe that doubles as a shotgun. Every second moment something that hasn't yet exploded decides to explode. Other than that, how was the film, Mrs Lincoln?
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, a film whose title supersedes any synopsis, arrives a little late to the party. It's not just that we've been worn down by vampires. The literary craze for equipping 18th-century icons with stakes and silver bullets played itself out a good two years ago. Various Jane Austen characters have had a go. Even Scrooge and Robinson Crusoe have confronted the malign immortals.
Derived from Seth Grahame-Smith's 2010 novel, AL:VH, not surprisingly, ends up playing like a high-concept in search of a film. That noted, you would have a hard time arguing that it's dull. Timur Bekmambetov, the Kazakhstani director of Wanted, bows to nobody in his determination to construct set pieces that test the viewer's capacity for off-the-chart insanity. The early scene involving stampeding horses seems quite tame when set beside the closing conflagration involving a burning train atop a burning bridge surrounded by (I think) an entire continent on fire. It's rather a shame that yawning voids occupy the places where we usually expect to find characters.
Bekmambetov has not been lucky with his leading man. Benjamin Walker (Meryl Streep's son-in-law, don't you know) is a decent actor and he looks so like Abraham Lincoln that he looks a little like Liam Neeson. But he never quite musters the weighty charisma: if anyone is looking to cast a film called Warren G Harding: Zombie Slayer, then he's probably the man to call.
The plot slaves (no pun intended) so hard to make something supernatural of the Civil War that it has no time left for any emotional groundwork. The vampires look like vampires. Ho hum. The 3D cinematography is as dull as ever. Ho hum, again.
Still, AL:VH is so agreeably energetic that it proves hard to despise. As the vampire craze dies down, we may have to face four score and seven years before seeing its like again.

How Online Data Is the New Oil
In the new network empire, there's only one commodity that counts: data. The more time you spend online, the more your data is collected, which, according to Niall Ferguson, is just as valuable as oil in our modern economy.
Witch Hunts: Where "Fake News" Began
In the 1600s, self-proclaimed witch hunter Matthew Hopkins stirred public panic with his book "The Discovery of Witches," as competing Catholics and Protestants sought to attract new followers by demonstrating their power to expose and capture "witches."
The Social Media Operation That Divided Americans
The Russian social media disinformation campaign was particularly savvy in the lead-up to the 2016 election. But take a closer look and you might be surprised to learn that ads out of Russia only accounted for less than 1% of all political ads that year.
