Donald Sterling Resisting Forced Sale of Clippers; Veterans Affairs Scandal Grows; House Delays Nutritional Bill; Hillary Clinton Says She Won't be a Part of "Political Slugfest" on the Backs of Dead Americans
Aired May 30, 2014 - 07:00 ET
THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.
ROSE FLORES, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Donald Sterling, he is saying, I don't care about the money. I have plenty of money. He wants vindication. He doesn't want his name associated with the word "racism."
So of course here is what we know. Former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has made a binding agreement to buy the NBA, the NBA team L.A. Clippers. That sounds like a done deal, right? Wrong, because according to Donald Sterling's attorney, he is telling CNN that Donald Sterling only gave his estranged wife Shelly Sterling and the NBA the right to negotiate and to negotiate only, not to sell. Here's the other thing his attorney had to say. Take a listen.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
MAXWELL BLECHER, DONALD STERLING'S ATTORNEY: We don't think the team can be sold without Mr. Sterling's consent. Mr. Sterling is not going to consent unless the NBA does something about the scurrilous and illegal charges they filed against him, and so far we've heard nothing to indicate that will occur.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
FLORES: So a few other things have to happen. Of course Donald Sterling has to agree to the sale, 75 percent of the NBA board of governors have to agree as well. And, Chris, let not forget about the $2.5 million fine. That is also still pending.
CHRIS CUOMO, CNN ANCHOR: Yes, Rosa, thank you for pointing out all the particulars. Let's figure this out because it gets more and more complicated. We have David Cornwell, sports attorney and a partner from Gordon and Rees LLP, and Mr. Sean Gregory, senior writer for "TIME" magazine. We have law and policy here.
Mr. Cornwell, counselor, starting with you. Complicated. Can Shelly sell without Donald? No, because he is the signatory to the franchise agreement, not her. But does she need him? Maybe no because the NBA at the end of the day owns the franchise. Not Donald Sterling. Help us understand this.
DAVID CORNWELL, SPORTS ATTORNEY: Well, there are multiple ways to get to the same place, but primarily Donald Sterling recently sent a letter to the NBA commissioner Adam Silver saying that his wife had the authority to negotiate and sell the team. Max Blecher is ignoring that. Secondly, the NBA is about to vote on Tuesday to terminate the franchise where the NBA will take over it and they'll have the right to sell it. So it really -- and, Shelly Sterling claims that she has the right to sell it because of her status in the family trust. So any road you take ends up with Steve Ballmer owning the Clippers.
CUOMO: One other big legal point. The representative for Mr. Sterling says none of this means anything because their evidence is illegally obtained and therefore none of this can move forward. Does that hold water in this particular setting?
CORNWELL: It does not. And in this case some of Max's best arguments can be used against him. At least 15 NBA teams reside in states that are single party, one-party consent states. California is a two-party consent state. So by Max's arguments that means teams such as the Utah Jazz, if their owner were to have done what Donald Sterling has done, then they actually could lose their team. This is self- governance. One of the most important part of self-governance is uniformity. If they can do it to a team in Utah, an owner in Utah, then they can do it to Donald Sterling.
But in any event, all the agreements that he has signed adopting the NBA's constitution and bylaws, operate as a waiver of the rights under California's constitution, or that's the right of privacy, or California statute regarding one party or two party consent.
CUOMO: Interesting point, Sean Gregory, that Darren Kavinoky made, an attorney from out west. He said, the agreement among NBA and the franchise owners is actually governed by New York law, and that's a one-party consent state. And he said, by the way, the rules of evidence don't apply here, so the fact that it's admissible or not, do you think it's a little bit of a charade?
SEAN GREGORY, SENIOR WRITER, "TIME": It's a total charade. Mr. Blecher's argument really was amazing when he said that sponsors, if the NBA would not have -- would have rejected the evidence based on the technicalities of one-party state, two-party state, sponsors would not have gone away. That's just not true. Sponsors started leaving before Adam Silver came down with his ban. So companies don't care about the technicalities of these laws, and they know their customers don't care. Their customers aren't going to disassociate or associate with what Mr. Sterling said based on some legal technicalities.
CUOMO: This all matters, this discussion, because what the league is leaning on is that you hurt the brand and that is -- that is evidence, let's say, proven by sponsors leaving, players saying they won't play for you, and you're hurting the cache, the value of the league by how you can and that's good enough for them.
GREGORY: That all happened before Adam Silver came down with this lifetime ban.
CUOMO: Now, there is this speculation out there. There's lot of speculation, right, Mr. Cornwell, that they're working in cahoots. This is just to raise the value of the team. I say we dismiss all of that. If this one piece of speculation is true, what does it mean, which is that what Sterling wants is vindication. That's what his lawyers said. In this case that would mean removing the ban. Would the league do that? Would it matter? What's your thought?
CORNWELL: Absolutely not. The players would not stand for that at all. So far Adam Silver has been supported by the players in the players association because of what he's done. What they need to do is to tell Donald Sterling, go away. And if you don't, we're going to fine you again. We're going to hold you accountable for our legal fees. The NBA controls the distribution of TV money to all of its team and can withhold that money or use it to fine Donald Sterling to make him go away. This is unbecoming to the NBA. He has demonstrated that he's just a crazy, unreliable, sick, and vile individual. He needs to go away, and I think the NBA is not going to be lenient. I think they're going to be tougher on him going forward.
CUOMO: Can you see another side on that, Sean? He says he doesn't want to pay the fine, either, the $2.5 million, but it's that lifetime ban. Is there any upside for the league?
GREGORY: Yes, I mean, just thinking about it kind of going back and forth. I think they can waive the fine. I don't think anybody cares much about that. It's chump change. The lifetime ban, you let him come to games. So if he wants the lifetime ban to go away, he goes away. Sterling goes away quietly, sells the team but he's allowed to come to games and hang out. He's not going to be able to buy a team again. I can envision the possibility. But I agree with David, no one really wants him near any games.
CUOMO: David Cornwell, thank you very much. And did you know that Sean Gregory rolls like that, that $2.5 million is chump change to him?
CORNWELL: That's right. I didn't know he rolled that strong.
CUOMO: Sean Gregory, thank you very much. Lunch is on you.
KATE BOLDUAN, CNN ANCHOR: All right, Chris, thank you so much.
The cries are growing louder for Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki to step down as he is set to turn over a report to President Obama explaining the deadly treatment delays at the VA medical centers as first revealed by CNN. The secretary is expected to apologize today for a breach of trust when he speaks to a veterans group in just over two hours. And now we are learning the wait list scandal has gone even wider, gone nationwide.
Drew Griffin of CNN's special investigations unit has been out in front on this from the beginning, Drew, he's joining me from Washington. You have new information. A lot of the focus, your focus and the administration's focus really have been in Phoenix, and now you say there's problems you've uncovered even in Pittsburgh. DREW GRIFFIN, CNN SPECIAL INVESTIGATIONS UNIT: Yes, overnight we got a letter from two congressmen in Pennsylvania, Congressman Mike Doyle and Tim Murphy. They are telling us that they have been contacted by the VA in Pittsburgh about a wait list of 700 veterans, veterans waiting for appointments there. Some the say appointments since 2012, and yet unfulfilled.
This Pittsburgh VA has been in trouble before. We reported on it in 2012 when they actually had a Legionella outbreak there, five veterans died. Legionella bacteria was in the water supply, and the management at the hospital didn't bother to tell anybody, didn't bother to tell the patients or the staff, and five patients actually contacted Legionnaire's disease from it and died.
Now we understand that there is another wait list issue in Pittsburgh that the congressmen are trying to get to the bottom of. So, yes, this scandal is growing. And I expect, Kate, that as these audits are done across the country we're going to see wait lists pop up just about everywhere.
BOLDUAN: It takes me back to a conversation that I had with the chairman of the House veterans affairs committee, Jeff Miller, when he said from his view, though he wouldn't provide details, is just the tip of the iceberg in talking about Phoenix, and it sounds like you're uncovering it almost every turn, which is probably why it's no surprise that now, Drew, there is more and more people calling for Eric Shinseki to step down.
But what do you think of the growing pressure? Do you think it will lead to his resignation? What are you hearing from your sources?
GRIFFIN: I think it's almost inevitable now. You spoke about Jeff Miller. He's the ranking Republican on the House Veterans Affairs committee. Last night the ranking Democrat, Mike Michaud, he's a Democrat out of Maine, released a statement basically saying it is time for Shinseki to go. When the ranking Democrat says that, that's pretty much a sign that it is time to move on. Let me read you from his letter. This is Mike Michaud. He's a Democrat now. "It's with a heavy heart that I call on Secretary Shinseki to step down. Democrats and Republicans alike all want to get to the bottom of what exactly is broken with the VA system. Instead, one man has become the focal point. It's time to move forward."
That one man, Kate, is speaking this morning here in Washington, D.C. He's got a speech or he's going to make some comments about fighting the homeless vet problem. That's at 8:30 this morning. Really I think a lot of the media are going to show up just to see what happens and when, not if, General Shinseki resigns.
BOLDUAN: That is a good question. What's going to happen to him is a good question. But I know the question you are also asking and we all need to continue asking, then what? If he steps down, how then is the system, this huge bureaucracy going to be fixed? What's going to happen then? That's then, of course, the next question. Drew, in front of it all, thank you so much. CUOMO: Let's stick with the VA for a second. It turns out they have a bonus system for their employees. That's not unusual, but it would be interesting to see who gets a bonus given the current discoveries. Sure enough those bonuses may have a role to play in the scandal at the VA. Here's why. Lawmakers are calling for a criminal investigation to determine whether long waiting times for patients were covered up because the government offered thousands of dollars in incentives to staffers to move patients through the system faster.
Erin McPike is live outside the Hyatt hotel in Washington where the VA Secretary Shinseki will be speaking to veterans in 90 minutes. How does this all fit together, Erin?
ERIN MCPIKE, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Well, Chris, the bonus system is all part of a year's long effort by conservatives to make the government function more like a business. But critics say for that to actually happen and to make the government function more like the private sector, there has to be accountability for those bonuses and consequences when performance suffers.
REP. DAN BENISKEK, (R) MICHIGAN: There's a possibility that there is motivation within the VA that encourages people to shorten waiting lists so that they get bonuses.
MCPIKE: It's one of the most head scratching details in the VA scandal. Employees got bonuses while veterans suffered, even died. A CNN report showed at least 40 veterans died waiting for care at the Phoenix VA as its director Sharon Helman was rewarded with about $9,000 on top of her six-figure salary. Last week VA Secretary Eric Shinseki rescinded that cash.
JAY CARNEY, WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY: I think the president as a general manager believes that there ought to be action taken on specific -- with regard to specific individuals.
MCPIKE: Awarding bonuses is commonplace in the federal government. Analysts say it's a strategy many Republicans in Congress pushed to keep agencies accountable and competitive with the private sector. But there are big differences.
TOM SCHATZ: In the private sector, there are not only rewards for doing well, there are penalties for doing poorly.
MCPIKE: In all the VA inspector general is investigating 26 facilities for, quote, "doctored waiting times." It's unclear the extent of the impact. But according to accountability site Openthebooks.com, Phoenix VA employees got $483,000 bonuses from 2011 to 2013 when the controversy developed. On a larger scale, seven facilities facing allegations of cooking the books awarded more than $8.7 million in bonuses to more than 12,000 employees, raising this issue.
REP. JEFF MILLER, (R) CHAIRMAN, HOUSE VETERANS AFFAIRS COMMITTEE: We've had problems time and time again where it appears that it's much easier to get a bonus at VA than it is to get disciplined or be fired.
MCPIKE: One government watchdog group argues that scandal brings to light an overarching problem for the federal government.
SCHATZ: Someone literally has to be committing a crime in order to get fired in the federal government.
MCPIKE: Now, Tom Schatz also made the point to me that this comes down to bad management and that Sharon Helman should have figured out about all of these backlogs simply by walking around to the Phoenix VA. But he said this system of bad management is part of the culture reinforced by the federal government. Kate and Chris?
BOLDUAN: We'll see what happens today. Thank you so much.
Let's take a break. Coming up next on NEW DAY, Michelle Obama taking on House Republicans over school lunch standards, and she lost. What will she do to fight Congress now? The head of the first ladies "Let's Move" campaign is joining us.
CUOMO: Plus, what do you think of this? Are the nation's most famous colleges teaching intolerance? Michael Bloomberg thinks so. We're going to breakdown the former mayor of New York's stunning speech accusing some pretty famous schools of McCarthyism.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
RICHARD SHERMAN, SEATTLE SEAHAWS: When you try easy meal like salmon cakes and succotash, that's the results you're going to get.
MICHELLE OBAMA, FIRST LADY OF THE UNITED STATES: Wow, Richard, where did you learn to do all this?
SHERMAN: Well, Mrs. Obama, I know how important it is for everybody to eat right. And whether you're a pro athlete or just a kid at school wanting a healthy meal, you've got to put the right fuel in your body in order to perform at your best.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
BOLDUAN: I feel like I have to respond. That's right, Richard Sherman! That was Seattle Seahawks star Richard Sherman teaming up with Michelle Obama on her healthy foods campaign, something the first lady has been struggling, though, with Congress over as the battle over children's schools have escalated.
A House Committee has advanced a bill that would allow some schools to delay implementing new White House nutritional guidelines. And it gets a whole lot murkier after that. But Republicans opposed to the standards, they say those standards are actually hurting the schools that they are trying to help. Let's figure out what's going to happen from here and what it all means. Sam Kass, executive director of Michelle Obama's Let's Move campaign and a White House senior adviser for nutrition policy is joining us now.
Sam, thanks for taking the time.
SAM KASS, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, LET'S MOVE: Thanks for having me.
BOLDUAN: Of course. So I -- as you saw right there, Michelle Obama putting a lot of her attention and time to putting really her name on getting healthier lunches in schools. What was her reaction when this bill -- this bill failed essentially in committee trying to change this bill?
KASS: Well, we expected that -- that vote yesterday in the Republican House. But, you know, what she's really concerned about is seeing politicians and industry influence really stepping on the wisdom of our, you know, scientists and nutritionalists who are setting a standard for what our kids should or shouldn't be eating in our schools. And we know we have to let science lead us to those kind of decisions and not our politicians.
BOLDUAN: That kind of, kind of, murky relationship, though, is nothing new in Washington and nothing new to this White House. They understand how the politics games work. Why can't you work behind the scenes to fix this? What are you guys going to do now? Because the effort to drop this waiver, if you will, that failed, and the bill is moving forward.
KASS: Well, you're right. We have seen this before just a couple years ago. Congress stepped in and declared that pizza should be considered a vegetable in the school lunch program, or exactly the sauce in the pizza. So we've seen this before.
But we've got a long way to go. The Senate is holding pretty firm here. And you know, we're confident that our friends on the Hill are going to do the right thing and let science lead and make sure that our kids are getting nutritious foods in schools.
We know really what's at stake. One in three of those young people are on track to have diabetes in their lifetime if we don't dramatically change course, and it's having a tremendous affect on our economy, our health care system right now. We currently spend $190 billion a year treating obesity related conditions. But you can only imagine what that cost will be when one in three of Americans are diabetic. So we know what we -- we know what the answer is here, and we're confident we're going to get this to a good place.
BOLDUAN: I do wonder, though, where your confidence comes from? Because you -- you're in Washington. You've been watching the relationship between the White House and -- the White House and the House of Representatives throughout the president's administration. It's not a good one.
And these things -- House Republicans, they have a strong majority. They can vote and push things through however they want. I mean, especially when the congressman who pushed this waiver, he said the following. "Everyone supports healthy meals for children. But bottom line," he says, "schools are finding it too much, too quick."
Why is it unreasonable for them to get a one-year delay, a waiver, if you will, to implement these standards? Waivers are also not new to this White House.
KASS: Yeah, well, listen, right now we've seen 90 percent of schools successfully implement these standards. We're seeing food and vegetable consumption go up because of these standards. Whole grain consumption is also up because of these standards. We know this rule is working.
USDA has provided flexibility where appropriate. So just last week whole grain pasta, for example, was an issue. And they allowed an extension on the time needed to implement the whole grain requirements for pasta.
But that doesn't mean we should roll this whole thing back and allow schools to just opt out of nutritional standards, which is what has been proposed in the House.
Now on the Senate side, what's in -- what's in their bill is much more reasonable. So I think there's a way we can get this to a good place. I'm fully confident that we're not going to roll this back.
BOLDUAN: So tell me then, where does your confidence come from? Your confidence comes from the Senate saying they'll stand firm? Or are you getting signals that when the bill passes in the House, the bill passes in the Senate, they come together in conference to figure this out, you've got reassurance from House Republicans that they're ready to play ball in this?
KASS: You know, I think it's too early to tell. This is like way early in the process. But I just -- I just know we're going to do what's right for our kids. I know the Senate has done -- has hold firm.
And in the end, this is what parents want. Parents want our kids to get nourishing food in schools. I think taxpayers want to make sure that the $10 billion spent every year feeding our children in school are -- are those dollars go to nutritious foods. So I think in the end, reason will win out here.
BOLDUAN: What do you think the chances are, Sam, that in the end that you're going to have to just take the fact that 90 percent of the schools have successfully implemented these -- these standards and you're just going to have to take that 90 percent and take that as a win?
KASS: Well, it is a win. And, look, I think either way we're going to do everything we can to the work with the remaining 10 percent of the schools to help them fully implement and provide technical assistance and other resources to really help get this over the end. Because all kids really deserve to have nutritious food in their cafeterias, to make sure our vending machines are not selling junk food to our kids. This is the work that must happen. So we're going to get there one way or the other.
BOLDUAN: I and -- and -- and I know you kind of giggle when you're saying it because it is true. And even the congressman who is pushing this waiver, he says everyone supports healthy meals for children, especially in schools, which is why I think it is so frustrating that this gets caught up in politics. Why this can't be worked out before it makes the headlines and before we have to be talking about the opposing sides on this debate, Sam. You're working on it. Keep us updated. Thanks so much.
KASS: Thank you so much.
BOLDUAN: All right, Chris?
CUOMO: Coming up on NEW DAY, Michael Bloomberg shows up at Harvard to give the commencement address and accuses the famous school of basically creating a generation of haters. We have his shocking speech from the belly of the beast itself, Harvard.
Plus, a spike in measles cases. Nearly 300 already this year. Why? We're going to tell you what you need to know, ahead.
CUOMO: Welcome back to NEW DAY.
This morning details from a highly anticipated new chapter on Benghazi from Hillary Clinton's new book, "Hard Choices". It's been released by "Politico". She addresses the ongoing political battle surrounding the 2012 terror attack on the American mission that left four Americans dead saying, quote, "I will not be part of a political slugfest on the backs of dead Americans. It's just plain wrong, and it's unworthy of our great country. Those who insist on politicizing the tragedy will have to do so without me."
For more, let's bring CNN political commentator and Republican consultant Margaret Hoover and CNN political analyst and editor in chief of "The Daily Beast" John Avlon into the mix.
The obvious question is, does she control whether or not she is pulled into the Benghazi analysis, Ms. Hoover?
MARGARET HOOVER, CNN POLITICAL COMMENTATOR: Of course she doesn't. Of course she doesn't. It's very convenient if you're running for president to say, well, if you guys are going to be political, have fun with that, but I'm not going to be political; I'm going to be above politics.
And frankly, the substance is just unbelievable. The substance of it doesn't sound all that different from the tone and tenor of her congressional testimony, frankly. She's sort of defiant, sort of laying out the law the way she saw it, and recounting the facts the way she saw it, and defending her position.
BOLDUAN: But should that be a surprise that this is how she's going to lay this out in her book from her perspective? What more -- do you expect more -- for her to offer more, John?
JOHN AVLON, CNN POLITICAL ANALYST: Not especially. Look, I mean, I think, Margaret is right in sort of the -- the irony of someone running for president and saying they refuse to be political, fine. But this is fairly consistent. She's basically saying that this political food fight is -- is -- is ugly, it's disingenuous, it's been hijacked by hyper-partisans. And that tone, that tenor and that approach is not only the right one politically, it may be the right one practically. And I think she's --
AVLON: Here's why. I think that right now the Benghazi distraction has become such -- so associated with hyper-partisan agendas that there's a chance -- and Hillary Clinton wants to sort of will the ball fair on this one -- that it will be seen as not a credible line of investigation, even if with this coming out.
BOLDUAN: Even if they are valid questions.
BERMAN: I think she's betting on the fact that she thinks there are no minds left to change on Benghazi at this point, that -- that they can yell about it, both sides, however much they want, but you're not going to change the middle by 2016 swing voters.
AVLON: Yeah, and -- and the best way to reach the middle is to say, "I'm going to try to be above politics."

Laminitis, which results into severe lameness, has been reported commonly in equine, bovine, caprine, and porcine [2,4]. There isn't any report on laminitis in dromedary. This paper reports on the case of laminitis in a male camel, which was confined in stall and fed daily with pearl millet grains (Pennisetum typhoideus).
About six year old medium sized male camel was presented at the hospital for treatment of severe lameness. On clinical examination enormous onyx enlargement was observed in both forelimbs (Fig. 1, 2 and 3), and left hind limb (Fig. 4) but onyx of right hindlimb was normal. The digital veins of affected limbs were engorged (Fig. 2, 3 and 4). On progression animal was walking with short strides and putting weight on heels with leaning on left side.
The onyx of left forelimb turned from anterior border of toe towards ventro-caudal direction and occupied 1/4th of cranial solar surface (Fig. 1 and 2); in right forelimb it turned from cranial border toward ventro-medial direction (Fig. 3), whereas, in left hindlimb the onyx growth from cranial border was turning towards ventral direction (Fig. 4). Anamnesis revealed that due to scarcity of roughage during the famine period, the animal was kept under confinement and fed with pearl millet grains without the roughage as daily ration for more than five months.
The animal was sedated with xylazine (0.1 mg/kg, IM) and restrained in lateral recumbancy. The onyxes were trimmed at the level of cranial border of the toe. The pain was not resolved even at 24 hrs. after the nail trimming. Non steroid anti inflammatory drug, phenylbutazone sodium (5 mg/kg, IM) was administered for 7 days and feeding schedule was changed to incorporate the roughage in daily ration of the animal. Though continuous improvement in gait was observed on consecutive days but the draught capability of the animal was re-attained after about ten days.
Onyx enlargement is a common feature in canine and felines that warrants trimming at regular interval. Enormous hoof enlargement in bovine, caprine, equine and porcine species has been reported due to laminitis [1,3,4]. Present findings resembles the grain founders in bovine and equine where eating of considerable quantities of grains as a daily ration alters the bacterial balance resulting in increased lactic acid producing bacteria, primarily lactobacillus and streptococcus. The lactic acidosis even in mild form may be a major factor in the development of acute laminitis . The increased lactic acid and decreased pH causes lyses of cell wall of Gram-negative bacteria with resultant release of endotoxins, these events ultimately contribute to the onset of laminitis . In present case enlarged onyxes and engorged digital veins were similar to elongated hooves, engorgement of digital veins and walking with short strides as reported in the early stages of bovine and equine laminitis [2,4]. Nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs administered at early stage of laminitis have been reported to resolve the condition , similar results were observed in present case. Rotation of distal phalanx associated with chronic laminitis in bovine [2,5] and equine  was not found in present case probably due to earlier detection and therapeutic measures taken for resolving the lameness.

The Iron Duke
Lord Wellington don’t know how to lose a battle.” This view of a soldier at Waterloo became the judgment of the world on the man who was hailed as the first general of his age. At Waterloo, Wellington defeated Napoleon, the master of war, finally checking the disruptive forces of the French Revolution that had troubled Europe for over two decades. He taught himself the ar...more

This is a very good introduction to the career of the great Duke of Wellington. It covers all his battles and campaigns - not just the famous ones - and explains how his early political ambitions intruded into his growing military career. Also it explains the role of his brothers properly, something I had not previously really understood. That said it gives very little space to his personal life or his activities away from the army. His wife and children get about a page in all, for instance. Ne ...more

The beautiful Fantast Palace was built by Bogdan Dunđerski landowner at the beginning of the twentieth century in the heart of Bačka.
The castle complex involves, beside the main building, a smaller castle, a chapel serving as the resting place of the owner, a riding-arena and a park, and it is awaiting visitors on about 65 hectares. Fantast is located 14 km away from Bečej, on the road to Bačka Topola (60 km from Novi Sad, 70 km from Subotica, 80 from Sombor, 65 from Zrenjanin and 135 km from the capital). The building that serves as a hotel since the 1980s is a delightful combination of art and hospitality. The castle offers local specialties as well, such as the Fantast pancake or poppy strudel, and the pearls of the drink list, the wines Krokan and Tiska Perla.

5. Wells Tower, Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned. I remember first reading Wells Tower back in March 2005, in a hilarious article for Harper's, "Bird-dogging the Bush Vote." That put him on my radar as a journalist. But then I started seeing his stories and was equally impressed. In fact, Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned is one of the very few books I have ever pre-ordered, waitng for it to appear. I was not disappointed (indeed, I'm puzzled that this book hasn't gotten more attention in the glut of literary look-backs at year end). While the settings range from the contemporary Florida Keys to Viking-ravaged northern England (I'm not kidding), Tower's literary eye is trained on relationships of all sorts and stripes, particularly the awkward strains of family. And I found him refreshingly devoid of the "cleverness" that besets the McSweeney's crowd. Masterful, realistic dialogue; a literary style that's not indulgent; and a sense of humor that's not to be missed.
4. Nicholson Baker, U and I: A True Story. This one had been sitting on my shelf for a couple of years, unread. When the shock of Updike's death hit me (why did it affect me so?), I pulled this down from the shelf that night and devoured it. As with much of Baker's work, akin to Julian Barnes, classing it as "fiction" is not straightforwardly simple. (Indeed, while reading this I kept thinking of Barnes' chronicle of a literary obsession in Flaubert's Parrot.) But I find reading Baker sheer (guilty) pleasure.
3. Robertson Davies, The Fifth Business. This was a late 2009 read for me, finishing it just before Christmas. And I shouldn't have been reading it. While the rest of the family was Christmas shopping, I wandered into the $1 section of our local "Bargain Books" and found this volume. Still waiting for the family on the bench in the mall, I dove in and was immediately hooked. Davies, one of the great Canadian men of letters, is someone I should have read years ago, but never did. Fifth Business, the first volume of his Deptford Trilogy, is a wonderful way into Davies' strange blend of realism and mythology (a mythologized reality? realized mythology?). But I should confess that my relationship to the book is a bit strange since it narrates the life of a guilt-ridden boy born to Scots-Canadian Presbyterians in a small village in southwestern Ontario, so I'm a bit prone to over-identification. But Davies is a hard-nosed psychologist and a disciplined stylist. I'm looking forward to finishing the trilogy.
2. Nicholson Baker, The Anthologist. Any new book by Nicholson Baker would be on my must-read list. But a Nicholson Baker book whose protagonist is a poet? And who's regularly pontificating about theory? Sign me up! It's hard for me to communicate the pleasure I feel when reading Baker (this all began with The Mezzanine). It's as if reading "literary" fiction shouldn't be this fun, this delightful. Part of this probably stems from a kind of obnoxious insiderness, the winks and nods of allusions and references that are the inside jokes of literary culture. But I think it's more because Baker's writing is an exercise in attention--a sort of hallowing of the mundane (which, for Baker, always includes the fruits of our pop culture). Such attention is also at the heart of good poetry, which is why The Anthologist is just brilliant.
Tracking the charming neuroses of Paul Chowder, a middling poet unable to write the Introduction to his long overdue anthology, Only Rhyme. Chowder is a throwback and a romantic, devoted to rhyme and armed with an idiosyncratic account of meter. (It was hilarious to see Charles Simic, taking the bait, get sucked into a debate with the fictional Chowder in his NYRB review of The Anthologist!) But woven throughout is also a low-grade love story (Chowder's live-in girlfriend has finally given up on the relationship) drenched in beautiful longing. Even here he hallows the mundane. In fact, I can't resist putting two passages side-by-side:
What if sometime Roz let me hold her breasts again? Wouldn't that be incredible? Those soft familiar palm-loads of vulnberability--and I get to hold them? That's simply insane. Inconceivable. (p. 178)
And then later:
One time when Roz was still with me I came home late from a reading in Madison, Wisconsin, and she was already asleep, and so was the dog. I kicked Smacko in the head by mistake in the dark, not too hard, but he made a little growly yelp, and I said I was sorry to him, and that woke Roz. I got in bed, and she smelled so smilingly sleepy that soon I had my hand on her hip and I said, "Baby, that is one big sexy hip."
She stirred and said, "Yikes, what's going on here?"
I said, "I don't know, what's going on with you?"
She turned and unbuttoned her pajama top over me, and I could see one of her breasts outlined in the orange light coming from the street. Her breasts didn't have to rhyme, but in fact they did rhyme (pp. 203-204).
Did you catch that--"she smelled so smilingy sleepy that soon..."? The beauty of The Anthologist is that it retrospectively helps us appreciate what we should have seen all along: Baker's prose is positively poetic.
1. Thomas Wolfe, Look Homeward, Angel. Some books are so significant for me I'm too intimidated to write about them. (I don't think I've ever written about Jean Giraudoux's Choice of the Elect, which might be the most significant novel I've ever read.) Wolfe's gargantuan (662 pages!) Bildungsroman is still seeping into and out of the joints of my imagination. I spent the summer with it, including a week in Asheville, NC (the setting of the book, where I visited Wolfe's boyhood home in pilgrimage). Without any direct influence, I think it is a profoundly Augustinian meditation on selfhood and identity in terms of "exile" and "home." At times Wolfe's modernism is Joycean in its stream-of-consciousness peeks into the rattled mind of E.O. Gant. But it is the characters of this family that endure most (something like the characters of The Sound and the Fury). This book will be "with" me for a long time and I hope someday I'll be able to approach it more reflectively and critically.
Honorable mention: Philip Roth, The Ghost Writer. My first Roth, read in a little season spent with Jewish writers (including Bellow's Ravelstein and stories from The Collected Stories of Isaac Babel). While these are often meditations on exile and outsiderness, I find myself feeling most "outside" the literary world when I read Jewish-American writers--a sensation which has its own strange pleasures and temptations.

When someone asks Ifemelu, the intelligent and witty protagonist of Americanah, about the book she is reading, she thinks, “Why did people ask ‘What is it about?’ as if a novel had to be about only one thing.”
Americanah is a gorgeous, sprawling book, with 500 pages of honed prose, striking observations, sensory details that bring its many settings to life, wry humor and fully imagined characters. It is decidedly not about any one thing. It’s about contemporary Nigeria and America. It’s about Ifemelu’s experiences as an immigrant in the United States, and about her former boyfriend Obinze’s dispiriting years as an immigrant in England.
It’s about race in America, a concept that Ifemelu rarely considered in Nigeria; class in both countries; and corruption in Nigeria. It’s about education, politics and even hairstyles, questioning the pressures that force black women to relax their natural hair and acquire “the white-girl swing” that pleases job interviewers.
Still, for all the significant subjects that Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie tackles, Americanah’s structure is an old-fashioned, deeply satisfying one: a love story about two people who are meant to be together, but life contrives to keep apart.
As Americanah opens, Ifemelu is in her 30s, heading to Trenton for a six-hour hair-braiding session at a salon in “the part of the city that had graffiti, dank buildings, and no white people” in preparation for her return to her native Nigeria after 15 years in America. She has earned a college degree, completed a fellowship at nearby Princeton, fallen in and out of love with several American men, and established a career, including a successful stint writing an anonymous blog, “Raceteenth or Various Observations About American Blacks (Those Formerly Known as Negroes) by a Non-American Black,” on which she covered subjects such as “Not all Dreadlocked White American Guys Are Down.”
She had broken off her relationship with Obinze more than a decade earlier, but it’s him she thinks of as her return to Lagos approaches.
Meanwhile, the affable Obinze, who spent his youth binge-reading American novels and dreaming of moving to the United States, finds himself newly wealthy in bustling contemporary Lagos.
Obinze never stopped loving Ifemelu, but when she didn’t contact him for years, he married a beautiful but vacuous woman who enjoys “basking in the attention her face drew but flattening her personality so that her beauty did not threaten.” Although Obinze participates in the realm of Nigerian power brokers who conduct themselves “in the manner of the true Lagosian who was always hustling, eyes eternally alert to the brighter and the better,” he pines for the intellectual connection he and Ifemelu shared.
Ifemelu relishes skewering piety of all kinds and pointing out absurdities in American ways. Adichie shows her questioning everyday encounters, such as when she remarks that she’s overheated, and people say, ‘You’re hot? But you’re from Africa!’” Ifemelu notices Americans “walked without rhythm … avoided giving direct instructions … and overused the word excited.”
When Ifemelu returns to Nigeria, however, she finds there’s just as much to mock in her home country, including the ostentatious decor of the wealthy, corruption and accomplished women who become mistresses to powerful men. There’s also plenty Ifemelu misses about America, including panini (“Nigeria is not a nation of sandwich-eating people”), reliable electricity and smoke-free restaurants.
While Ifemelu and Obinze travel separate paths, their unfulfilled love carries on like a drumbeat growing more insistent as the years pass, and it’s impossible not to root for them to find a way to each other. Americanah is a bright, bold book with unforgettable swagger that proves it sometimes takes a newcomer to show Americans to ourselves.

ISL: Chennaiyin and Athletico de Kolkata draw in thrilling match
The second match of the Indian Super League saw first season's Athletico de Kolkata and last season's Champions Chennaiyin FC take on each other. The goal thriller saw 4 goals in all with two from each side. Both sides played entertaining attacking football and both sides had to settle for a draw at the end of it
Athletico's Hume, Doutie and Postiga looked sharp with young Doutie netting in the first goal of the match. However, Chennaiyin equalized soon enough with a shot from Jayesh Rane. Tiri then unfortunately helped the visitors with an own goal.
Chennaiyin coach Materazzi then subbed Mohanraj for young teenager from Mizoram Jerry Lalrinzuala who went on to concede a penalty in the 85th minute which was coolly converted by Hume.


A low flow switch is used to indicate loss of coolant flow. Coolant liquid helps protect critical and expensive equipment from overheating and becoming damaged. A Normally Open switch will close when the coolant flow rate is above the switches setpoint, indicating proper flow. If the flow rate drops below the setpoint, the switch will open and shut down the system to prevent damage and keep personnel safe. This fail-safe logic is important as it will also shut equipment down in the event of a loose connection or broken wire.
Challenge: Reliable Coolant Flow While Ensuring Patient Safety
Coolant liquid is critical in many applications. The sensor needs to be reliable, repeatable, small, and economical. One application is for medical lasers, where coolant flow is critical for patient safety and equipment protection. Gems FS-380P Coolant Flow Switch meets all these requirements.

LONDON — The goalkeeper was out, lying face down and motionless on the grass, less than half a minute into the match. Russia’s Igor Akinfeev had not been injured by an opponent, but by a flare thrown from the crowd behind his goal.
First-aid responders rushed to resuscitate him and then take him to a hospital in Podgorica, Montenegro. Having treating burns on the back of his neck, doctors later cleared Akinfeev after running a few neurological tests. The goalkeeper, they believed, had been a lucky man not to have suffered worse.
The sport, if we can call it that, resumed without Akinfeev on Friday. After deliberating with officials for 30 minutes, the referee decided the Euro 2016 qualifier between Montenegro and Russia must go on.
The scoreless game was abandoned after 67 minutes, however, when a second Russian player was struck, apparently with a cigarette lighter thrown from the crowd. Players and some coaching staff members brawled beside the field, and once more the German referee marched everyone off down the tunnel to the locker rooms.
It was game over because of a mob, a situation that required a quick response from officials.
There’s the problem. The world moves at Internet speed, but soccer is still in the Dark Ages when haste is required.
On Monday evening, UEFA, the organizer of this tournament, reacted.
It announced on its website that disciplinary proceedings had been opened against the soccer federation of Montenegro for its spectators’ “setting off and throwing of fireworks and objects” and “for holding a match that did not get played in the full.”
UEFA also indicated it would investigate whether Russian fans in the stadium had set off fireworks and thrown objects. The Russian federation pre-empted this by lodging a complaint that could result in its being given a 3-0 win and awarded three points.
UEFA adopted the customary protocol. It waited for written reports from the referee, Deniz Aytekin, and from its match delegate. It will wait some more for its ethics and disciplinary committee to meet, at a date to be determined in due course. An outcome is unlikely to happen before this weekend.
What’s the rush? After all, fireworks and flares have become a common nuisance at games in Italy, Turkey and Eastern Europe. UEFA usually levies small fines that — given the millions involved in games today — are about as discouraging as a tickle on the wrist.
Should it be treated differently because someone was hurt?
Well, yes. In the past, a linesman in Milan’s San Siro stadium was hit as Akinfeev was and knocked to the ground. At another game, a Welsh fan on the opposite side of the field from where a firework had been launched was wounded in the face and was just an inch or two from losing an eye.
How hard can it be to frisk fans for such relatively bulky weapons when they enter stadiums? In Podgorica, the police were on full alert because there had been a predictable buildup of animosity throughout the day.
Sports, in such circumstances, takes on nationalistic overtones, as when Russia faced Poland in Warsaw during the 2012 European Championship. Anyone who witnessed Russian supporters marching like an army toward Poland’s national stadium before the game would have been only too aware of the response it would inevitably evoke from younger Poles.
Riot police were in place throughout Podgorica on Friday because of heightened tensions after Montenegro backed American and European Union sanctions against Russia over Crimea and Ukraine.
You might think we should concentrate on sports? If only.
Given the buildup, this was never likely to be a purely sporting affair. Russia and Montenegro are tied for third in Group G, far behind Austria and Sweden.
But third place counts for something, now that UEFA has enlarged the finals to 24 teams, meaning that almost half of the 54 nations in UEFA will qualify for France in 2016, including a number of third-place teams.
So Russia’s protest, and its hope for three points, is enhanced after a game where it could not score a goal, even from a penalty it was awarded just moments before the second incident.
“It is such a shame that the actions of the Montenegro supporters spoiled what would have been a very interesting game,” Nikolai Tolstykh, the Football Union of Russia president, told the Russian newspaper Sport Express. “In our view, the game should have been stopped in the first minute.” Fabio Capello, Russia’s coach, agreed, though his counterpart on Friday felt differently.
“My players are depressed,” said Montenegro Coach Branko Brnovic. “We will be playing without fans for who knows how long after this.”
Maybe they will, because, clearly, fines and even partial stadium closures are not working as deterrents so far.
“These fans sing ‘Montenegro, we love you’ but throw flares, insult rivals and cause all sorts of incidents every time they turn up, and that’s downright hypocrisy,” Momir Djurdjevac, the general secretary of Montenegro’s soccer association, told reporters in the stadium. “We are left with the impression of barbarians. It seems we don’t deserve a nation, a team or berth in a major tournament.”
Djurdjevac paused before asking: “Who wants to play for the national team under such circumstances? These players have a big dream to qualify with our tiny nation for a major tournament, but we are going nowhere.”
UEFA must, in due course, decide where any of this is going. The next keeper hit from behind may not lucky enough to return home with his team.

If there’s one thing that’s abundantly clear from this past week, it’s that the Mac mini is very different things to different people—and that includes Apple. Rarely can I think of a time when the opinion on a new device from Apple has been so varied as it has been in our own forums since this past Tuesday, the first. Much of the debate has centered around Apple’s use of on the motherboard, in place of a discrete graphics chip like the old Mac mini, which featured an ATI Radeon 9200 graphics processing unit and 32MB of dedicated VRAM. The new system uses an Intel GMA 950 chip, which doesn’t have any discrete VRAM—instead, it borrows the system’s main memory for its own needs.

About the Song and Sky Bird Pendant.
The Song and Sky collection began with the Bird Pendant and was inspired by 3 things.
1 – A CHARM BRACELET I OWNED AS A CHILD.
This old school charm bracelet was bought for me by my parents when I was about 11.
It’s got a lot going for it and I love it (especially the moving abacus and cat in a bin charms.) But it did get me thinking.
WHY do I have to celebrate everything at once? Why can I not celebrate my GCSE results without also remembering that holiday to the Isle of Wight? And that my name starts with an H?
HOW can this be made easier? We had to take every charm to a jeweller to have it soldered to the bracelet. Now I can solder, but I’d guess most of my clients can’t.
WHAT do I need to do to charm jewellery to make it look as good as non-charm jewellery? I wanted the function of charms – because they are fantastic – with the look of beautiful, elegant jewellery.
2 – ARTWORK CREATED FOR PLYMOUTH COMMUNITY PROJECTS.
I sometimes use a shared office in Plymouth – and it really its full of some of the most brilliant people and projects I have ever encountered.
And the pictures were of phoenixes.
At that point, I realised that phoenixes were A Thing That I Really Liked and drew lots and lots and lots of them.
Eventually, the phoenix images boiled down into a picture of a feisty little bird.
And the heart of my new charm collection was decided.
3 – A LOVELY LITTLE MECHANISM THAT I COULDN’T (AND STILL CAN’T) BELIEVE THAT NO ONE ELSE WAS USING.
When I worked out the mechanism behind the Song and Sky collection, the first thing I did (after a little dance) was to spend about 2 months checking that it hadn’t been done before.
From that research, I am very, very confident that it hasn’t.
I had to make something of the discovery. I worked hard to get the balance of the pieces right. I had to make a bird pendant that could sit perfectly well with no charm at all as well as carry anything I throw at it.
It is just so lovely and simple. The chain holds the charm on. There. There is even a threading tool enclosed with most of the charms to make the threading process easier.
The designs are all banked with the National Association of Jewellers and will all be fully hallmarked including my personal stamp.
So that’s where Song and Sky came from. Over a year of work from just 3 little things!

One of my favourite characters in the Game of Thrones television series is Daenerys Targaryen. Other than my superficial male tendency to fall for her nordic beauty, what I like most about Daenerys is that she portrays one of the best examples of strong female empowerment in television today. That, and she has dragons.
Feast your eyes on this great Game of Thrones inspired bookmark crafted by artist Caninos Brancos. The bookmark portrays each of Daenerys’ three dragons, Drogon, Rhaegal and Viserion, in a way that makes it appear as if the dragons are emerging from the book. Very cool!

The Man Behind That Muppet: 'Being Elmo'
You’ve probably never wanted to cry when you saw Elmo hug someone before, but you will before the movie’s over.
Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's JourneyDirector: Constance Marks
Cast: Kevin Clash, Whoopi Goldberg, Frank Oz
Netflix Streaming: Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey
Release date: 2012-04-03
Inside Elmo is a middle-aged black man. That man is Kevin Clash, a shy, talented puppeteer.
Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey is an upbeat documentary that follows Clash’s career through the succession of events that led to him becoming the first African American Muppeteer to work for Jim Henson.
What could have been a brief featurette that only children would enjoy is in fact a captivating story for grown-ups that’s handled with plenty of care, depth, and intelligence by director Constance Marks.
The film found success at the Sundance Film Festival and in a limited theatrical run, but now it’s available via Netflix streaming and released on DVD. However you view it, Being Elmo is a marvelous portrait of a man consumed with something.
Way before bringing life to Sesame Street’s most popular character, Clash grew up in the rough side of Baltimore and was obsessed with making, operating and voicing puppets when he was just a kid. He was teased for being spending all day with his dolls, but Clash kept pursuing his craft.
In roughly 80 short minutes, Being Elmo tells the story of how someone chased his dreams and became good friends with his idol in the process. As discussed in the film, while still in high school, Clash landed a puppeteering job on a local TV station, and that became his springboard to Captain Kangaroo, Labyrinth, Sesame Street, and all things Henson.
Elmo has charmed countless children and spent time with Oprah, Beyonce, and De Niro, so it makes sense that a lot of his charm comes from his master puppeteer. It’d take a real Grouch to dislike Clash’s cheery persona or the film’s optimistic tone.
The film is adequately narrated by Whoopi Goldberg who also shows up as an interviewee and in a Sesame Street clip. Other prominent interviewees include the (relatively) unsung heroes behind your Muppet-filled childhood like Carroll Spinney and Frank Oz.
Perhaps the real highlight is the astounding amount of archive footage used.
Someone has apparently filmed Clash doing almost everything for his entire life. Even in his early days, you see him creating puppets on his mom’s sewing machine and visiting the legendary puppet maker Kermit Love for the first time while on a senior class trip to New York. You see Clash’s first time performing on television in the ‘70s and an ensemble of puppeteers singing at Henson’s funeral in 1990.
This sort of material adds extra doses of warmth and reality to the feel-good picture. The biggest benefit of all this footage is that every claim about Clash’s lifelong work ethic and good-hearted nature can be easily backed up and therefore better appreciated.
With each passing minute, you’ll be drawn into Clash’s world, which will give you a new appreciation for the work that the legend Jim Henson pioneered.
You realize how this niche art form is something you’ve taken for granted your whole life. Who had ever thought about how each Muppeteer performs an array of voices? Who knew that Henson created a special “invisible” stitch to hide the seams in felt puppets or that a Muppet’s mouth should stay open at least a little bit to give it a lively smile?
Ironically you don’t learn a lot about what it’s actually like to ‘be Elmo,’ maybe because Clash is so shy. Marks only provides glimpses into Clash’s personal life, like a single grumpy mention of his ex-wife or a lingering scene of his daughter Shannon’s “Sweet 16” party.
The film breaks from its polished beat to hint at Clash’s struggles as a father, juggling a busy schedule with being there for his family. There’s a clear suggestion that Shannon wants more face-to-face quality time with her dad, whose job takes him away for weeks on end. Without going deeper, the documentary speeds past personal drama and returns to a story filled with overwhelming positivity, promise and hope.
It’s engrossing to see Clash passionately coach other puppeteers that haven’t achieved his skill level. It’s moving to see his supportive parents beam with pride on screen, as you’d imagine they’ve been doing for decades.
And it’s touching to the point of tears to see Clash, as Elmo, spend time with a terminally ill child and her family. You’ve probably never wanted to cry when you saw Elmo hug someone before, but you will before the movie’s over.
Clash is by no means instantly recognizable on the street, yet his story of determination makes him an instant poster child for the American dream. He persevered against ridicule and astronomical odds and his wildest dreams came true. Being Elmo is an uplifting film that serves as a lesson in the value of wholeheartedly pursuing your passion in order to do something that really matters.
You’ll be tickled that you watched it.

The luxury tuners are back with a program that gives the McLaren some added juice and a fresh new look.
Famed for their supercar tuning projects that includes the Audi R8 GT, Lamborghini Murcielago, Ferrari 599 GTO and 458 Italia, Maserati GranTurismo, and Aston Martin Vantage, Wheelsandmore has returned with a new program for the McLaren MP4-12C. Dubbed 'Toxique Evil,' their latest tuning kit, made up of performance and styling enhancements, adds more weight to their already impressive reputation as one of the top tuning companies around.
First up, the McLaren's steering and overall handling has been improved by lowering the supercar's PCC complex electronic hydraulic suspension system by 25mm. A Trim-Line-Design stripe that runs along the length of the MP4-12C dresses the exterior and it sits on a new set of 20- and 21-inch ultralight-forged alloys wrapped in Continental Sport Contact 5P tires. Wheelsandmore also took the 3.8-liter V8 bi-turbo engine, optimized the car's control electronics and added a handcrafted exhaust system with remote-able exhaust valves.
As a result the supercar's output has increased from 600hp and 443lb-ft of torque to 666hp (hence Toxique Evil) and 472lb-ft of torque. That's some sinister power under the hood, but obviously not menacing enough for the luxury tuning outfit who are working on a turbo and intercooler upgrade that will bump up the power to a wicked 800hp.

The Huawei Mate 30 Pro might not be sold in Europe26
Huawei's Mate 30 series might not be available in Europe
Google revealed in late August that Huawei’s Mate 30 Pro wouldn’t be able to ship with YouTube, Gmail, Play Store, or any other Google apps for that matter due to the US trade ban that was introduced in May. Huawei confirmed this development days later in an interview and suggested it applied to all Mate 30-branded devices, not just the flagship Pro variant.
The rather important change renders the premium device useless to many European and international customers based out of China due to the lack of access to Google’s services. Workarounds are possible, but it’s unlikely Huawei will be able to legally advertise them. Because of this, the company has reportedly made some important adjustments to its launch plans.
The Mate 30 Pro will offer some of the best hardwareThe Huawei Mate 30 Pro is expected to debut with a huge 6.8-inch waterfall OLED display paired with slim bezels and a wide notch. The latter should include a 32-megapixel selfie camera, an unspecified wide-angle shooter, and a 3D facial recognition system that’ll rival the iPhone 11 and Pixel 4 alternatives.
Accompanying all of this will be a completely redesigned rear which includes a huge circular camera module. This reportedly houses a 40-megapixel main sensor, a 40-megapixel cine camera, an 8-megapixel telephoto camera with support for 3x zoom, and a dedicated Time-of-Flight sensor for improved bokeh imagery.
What this all means for Huawei moving forwardAs previous reports have suggested, the inability to pre-install Google apps on smartphones may force Huawei to replace Android with Harmony OS that was officially unveiled last month. This means next year’s Huawei P40 and P40 Pro could be the company’s first flagships devices to launch with its own operating system
Aside from this, the development also represents a major setback for Huawei’s smartphone business. The Chinese brand had previously announced plans to become the world’s largest smartphone manufacturer by the fourth quarter of 2019 or the first quarter of 2020 at the latest. But with the brand’s smartphone shipments gradually declining, this is unlikely to happen anytime soon. In fact, the company could eventually drop down into third place behind Apple if the iPhone 11 performs better than expected.

I have used more knife and tool sharpening products that have come through the market than I can remember. Some are awesome, and some are downright debilitating (these are the ones I’ve mostly forgotten). The reality is you need a good knife edge, but you’re working with a material that you can chip, make more dull and/or completely ruin it if you go about it the wrong way with the wrong products.
What follows won’t be about knife sharpening methodology. This article is an in depth look at the few products I have used and swear by in my professional life as an everyday knife user thanks to my extensive time spent outdoors and I bring my unique experience as a knife maker. For guidance in terms of what method to use to sharpen various knives, or even to get a great overview of what knife sharpening is all about check out my What You Need To Know To Sharpen A Knife article.
Lubrication isn’t always necessary in sharpening knives—but in those instances where it’s recommended, a little bit of a mess on your hands from this stuff is only going to benefit your knife blade—and you the user—in the long run. This is especially true if you stick to using sharpening stones. Carefully read the directions for each stone you use as lubrication, or anything more than water even, could ruin them and ruin your knife edge.
Nathan’s Honing Oil by Lansky
If you’ve ever used a Lansky sharpening product, chances are you’ve used Nathan’s Honing Oil—their own in-house lubricant recommended for their sharpening tools and accessories. I’ve used this specialty formulated lubricant to sharpen every knife I have made myself and sold through my knife company. I have also used it when sharpening pocket knives and cutlery for the last five years.
Nathan’s is odorless and cleans up off of your clothes with little to no staining—so, don’t wear your Sunday Best, but no need to don overalls or an apron either. I have found that a couple of drops on each side of the knife blade is good for a complete sharpening session. More Info
Liquid Freakiness by Vulture Equipment Works
When it launched last year, Liquid Freakiness by Vulture Equipment Works was primarily marketed as a gun lubricant with a slew of alternative applications including knife sharpening. An added benefit to “super oil”, aside from the fact that it’s odorless and non-staining, was that it was also non-toxic and 100% food safe. I like to use the knives I’m carrying for a multitude of things, which may include some degree of food prep on the go—I have young children who constantly need a little help here and there when we’re eating out or while camping. Having the peace of mind that this stuff wasn’t going to kill me or my kids if it got in our mouths somehow was an added benefit. Liquid Freakiness is also safe for the environment and won’t hurt any watersheds you may be playing or working in. Seeing that it also acts as a long lasting rust and corrosion inhibitor—you fishing folk might want to invest in this to lube your reels and hone/protect your filleting knives. Just saying.
When using LF, I generally put a drop on my finger and rub it down each side of the blade for a full and clean sharpening of the knife. So, not only is it super effective, and Captain Planet approved, but it’s easy to use and doesn’t require multiple applications to be that effective. This is important when sharpening without an angle guide where you can’t stop your cadence, re-lube the blade, and drop back in at the same angle. It’s nearly impossible.
Liquid Freakiness does come at a cost – of upwards of $20. This is 4x the amount of Nathan’s and 8x the amount of common household vegetable oil (yeah, that works too, but it’s wicked messy and not long lasting). But when you consider the numerous benefits and uses, coupled with the minimal amount you need to use it optimally, everything balances out pretty quickly. Go ahead, pay the $20 and bring this Mil-Spec rated sauce everywhere you need it. More Info
Power Assisted Sharpening
The quickest and easiest way to sharpen a bunch of knives at home is with an electric knife sharpener, which, funnily enough, was made popular in the 1980’s for kitchen knives in middle to upper class homes. I’m not even kidding. Since then, things have changed—and though those specific knife sharpeners are still around, there’s a brand of sharpeners out there that can still sharpen kitchen cutlery, but is aimed at the demanding chore of putting a near perfect edge on a thicker, outdoor knife: Work Sharp.
Combo Knife Sharpener by Work Sharp
For someone looking for a quick, effortless, and effective way to sharpen a multitude of knives in a short amount of time, for years to come, the Combo Knife Sharpener from Work Sharp is the bees’ knees. This bench-top model allows you to sharpen both sides of your knife without having to switch hands or set-ups to do so. It uses a 3M belt that is exposed to the left and right sides in the unit with a built-in 25-degree sharpening guide. You merely drag your knife through while riding against the guide side of the slot, and the belt crafts your blade edge.
The unit comes with two of Work Sharp’s proprietary P120 GRIT 3M Abrasive belts. I’ve sharpened ten different knives on the unit, and am still on the first belt. It is starting to show some slight wear, but that’s going to happen by design—you’re pushing your sharp knife edge against the belt. I don’t see this as a design flaw or drawback in the very least. In fact, I think the design is top notch, seeing I can fully sharpen a dull knife, without lubrication, on this system in under five minutes.
My one caveat, however, would be that the Combo Knife Sharpener isn’t adjustable. It is factory molded and set at 25 degrees. A majority of folding and fixed blade knives for the outdoors and outdoor sports are ground at this angle, but some are ground at 20 degrees, which gives you more of a razor sharp edge. Don’t get me wrong, sharpening at 25 degrees will give you a useable sharpened edge on your blade, but it won’t be a skin-popping-scalpel-sharp like a knife fresh from the factory. More Info
Stationary Hand Sharpening
Sometimes you need to stop and take time to properly sharpen your knives. It requires set-up, preparation, breakdown, and cleaning. But the rewards could be worth your time. There’s a myriad of systems out there that use rods and stones—be they ceramic or diamond—as well as lubricants (for ceramic) that range in level of set up and breakdown time. For me, I need something that I can set up, use the heck out of, and either leave set up in my shop, or break it down partially so I can get back to my other work with little effort. The only folks who seem to have figured out how to do that with a sharpening method like this are Lansky.
Deluxe 5-Stone System by Lansky
The Deluxe 5-Stone System by Lansky is the perfect marriage between levels of hones (Extra Coarse to Ultra Fine), ease of set up, and ease of use. The kit comes complete with case, sharpening hones, guide rods, Nathan’s Honing Oil and the actual guide. What it lacks is the bench mount, or Super “C” Clamp, which you don’t need—but I recommend for repeated ease of use as well as proficiency.
Yes, there is a little time in the initial set up as you need to attach the rods to each stone and make sure they’re tight so the stones don’t rotate, but it’s worth it. Also, this isn’t as time consuming as using standard stones to sharpen a knife. The kit comes with a guide which not only controls the movement of the rod and hone combo, but also lets you choose the angle at which you’re sharpening your knife—which allows it to sharpen a multitude of knife styles and types.
Ultimately, for me, this Lansky System is about as authentic and true grit as I like to get when it comes to sharpening knives and tools. I can use flat stones and the whole bit, but this Deluxe 5-Stone System is a great balance between set up, breakdown, and quality of product. More Info
The last thing you want, when you’re out on an adventure, is to have to work with a dull knife. Unfortunately, you don’t always check the edge of your blade before you head out so you usually don’t find yourself in a jam until you’re in the middle of the woods, trying to prep that high end Summer Sausage you picked up at the Vermont Country Store (Exit 6, off of 91N). This is where a pocket sharpener comes in. And this is also the largest category of knife sharpeners out there—so take the following to heart, as there is a metric ton of them to choose from—plenty of which I have used and cursed, vulgarly, over the years.
Guided Field Sharpener by Work Sharp
For you folks who leave you rain fly at home and cut your toothbrush down to save on weight on the trail, the Guided Field Sharpener from Work Sharp is going to make you think twice about counting these ounces—as it’s got it all. It’s even good for at home use. The flip side to that coin, of course, is that eventually the non-replaceable pieces (ceramic rods) on the unit will wear out. But you have a few years of use to get through before you need to cross that bridge.
The Guided Field Sharpener is comprised of coarse and fine removable diamond plates, a multi-use ceramic rod (which can sharpen fish hooks as well), a serration sharpener, leather strope, and both 20 and 25 degree sharpening guides. If that’s not enough, there’s a lanyard hole and a little stash box under one of the diamond plates (they’re held in place by the frame and magnets).
The other advantage to the GFS, is that it doesn’t require any lubrication—diamond sharpeners don’t need any by nature. However, after a few heavy uses, I will put a drop of Liquid Freakiness on to the finer, 600 grit diamond plate to clean it up—but I wipe it down afterward. Regardless, by design the Guided Field Sharpener is a fantastic, multi-use, on-the-go knife sharpener that easily tucks away into your pack, has multiple replaceable parts, and can both repair and sharpen the edge on your knife.

The more I go through The Indian Penal Code the more I realize that the female counterparts have been given a good safety by our law.
The recent Criminal Amendment Act, 2013 has added a bunch of safety procedures for women. Section 354 of the IPC is totally dedicated to women. It provides protection against various kinds of offences like :
1. Section 354 talks about punish related to criminal force to outrage women’s modesty.
2. Section 354A deals with punishment related to sexual harassment.
3. Section 354B talks about offence with an intent to disrobe women.
4. Section 354C explains and provides punishment for Voyeurism.
5. Section 354D the most talked about section provides punishment for stalking a woman both online and offline.
The list is not over. The Indian Law has a vast diversity of laws related to women and there safety. These laws will only serve there purpose if they are properly implemented and common people are made aware of them. So that before even thinking to do something wrong, they realize the punishment and abstain from it.
Other provisions related to women would be dealt in the upcoming articles. Stay tuned.

Cal was overwhelmed by the one of the top distinguished college football atmospheres in college football last season as they suffered their 35-18 blowout to the mighty Vols. Now, with the Vols on their way to the west coast, how can Cal match that exceptional noise, in an attempt to disrupt the Vols goal of winning the game? Mega-phones. California's athletic department will be handing out mega-phones to the Berkeley crowd on Saturday. They hope to create the same atmosphere as the 107,000+ crazy fans of Vol Nation.
Tennessee senior safety Jonathan Hefney is not impressed.
“They did that in high school,” Hefney said with a smile. “We come from the South,” Hefney said. “We play tough football.
“In high school, we played tough football. We came here (to UT) and it was the same thing. That’s what we're bringing to California just like when they came down last year.”
