November verse 7: Pick your myth
Trump's confidence is his Achilles'
heel? He's sulking in his tent.
Freud's Oedipus was doomed to kill his
dad. Camus' Sysiphe was meant
to be heureux. And Jeanette Winter-
son: will Atlas represent her?
Did those old poets know us all,
no life too big, no fate too small?
I dip into the well of fable,
ornament of childhood days,
and find Perseus in the maze.
With Ariadne's thread, he's able
to find his way. But I'm not sure
I'm ready for a minotaur.
Weight is Jeanette Winterson’s contribution to Canongate’s series The Myths. Other titles in the series include Margaret Atwood’s The Penelopiad, Philip Pullman’s The Good Man Jesus, the Scoundrel Christ and Ali Smith’s Girl Meets Boy.
Weight is a lively retelling of the Greek myth of Atlas, the Titan who was condemned to hold the heavens on his shoulders for eternity. This being Jeanette Winterson, there’s quite a lot of rhapsodic testifying as to the myth’s deeper meanings and its personal significance for the writer.
The retelling focuses on Atlas’s relationship with Heracles, who briefly relieves him of his burden. There’s a bit of rough humour at Heracles’ expense and reflections on their different kinds of strength: Atlas can hold still and Heracles is a man of action. Heracles comes close to stealing the limelight as the narrative follows him to his marriage to Deianeira and his horrible death in the burning shirt of Nessus. But Atlas has his quiet surprises as well, such as when Laika, the astronaut dog, comes into his life.
I confess I didn’t quite follow a lot of the meditation on the myth’s meaning. Something about boundaries and desire, fate and decision. It becomes personal. Jeanette Winterson finds in Atlas an echo of her own adoption story, her ignorance about her birthparents (this was written before Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal, where she writes about her birth mother), and her rejection by her adopted mother:
Having no one to carry me, I learned to carry myself. My girlfriend says I have an Atlas complex.
The task she took on, first as a rejected child and then as a writer, was to create a world of the imagination, a world that she has had to carry as a great weight.
I generally read Jeanette Winterson’s writing with a mixture of irritation and exhilaration. This book was no different. I’m irritated by the (presumably deliberate) false version of the myth that Atlas held up whole the world, when it was the heavens that he had to hold up in the original story. I’m irritated by the crude dick humour around Heracles (though maybe it’s not meant as humour but, even more irritatingly, as a version of male sexuality). I’m irritated by the way the prose sometimes feels like revivalist preaching, whether the subject is scientific cosmology or the pain of not know who your parents are. I’m irritated by occasional lapses of logic. But – and this is why I kept reading and am glad I did – I’m exhilarated by the way the book yokes together a scientific understanding of the universe with images from Ancient Greek myth (Laika nestling in Atlas’ shoulder, for example) and, in the final pages, I’m exhilarated at the notion of Atlas (and so possibly Jeanette) laying down his (and possibly her) burden.
November verse 6: While they're counting
The BOM predicted wind and drizzle
but today dawned clear and still.
In bed we did our daily puzzle,
read the news, then took our pills,
had juice, poached eggs on toast (with pepper).
I showered, shaved and, feeling dapper
went out shopping while you made
a marinade and ironed and laid
the table for tonight's four dinner
guests. I vacuumed, rehung art.
You whipped up a sweet lime tart.
Refresh, refresh, there's still no winner.
Downstairs hung their washing out.
Refresh, refresh, it's still in doubt.
November verse 5: Letter to my Mother
Dear Mum, I won't write you a novel.
Barely fourteen rhyming lines
I'll manage. No space to unravel
the half a century that twined
our lives. Perhaps I know you better
now than when your weekly letters
filled me in on family news.
I wish that you could know me too,
that you could look down from some heaven,
hear the words I wish I'd said,
see the tears I should have shed
back then, take thanks for all you've given.
The grave is deaf and blind and still.
What we didn't say, we never will.
This is prompted by a marvellous book, a very different letter to a very different mother:
The protagonist narrator of this novel, known to his intimates as Little Dog, is a Vietnamese-American Gay man, and this is his portrait of the artist as a very young man. The text is cast as a letter addressed to his mother. He tells her the story of his childhood, including quite a bit of abuse he suffered at her hands and his understanding that that abuse was part of the aftermath of the US-Vietnam war. He tells of his relationship with his grandmother, her mother, and what he knows of her love story with a US serviceman. And he relates his teenage experiences of sex. Given the sometimes excruciating detail about young gay male sex (excruciating both physically and in its turbulent emotional ambivalence), clearly this is not a letter he really expects his mother to read.
Ocean Vuong has won big prizes for his poetry, and parts of this book read as prose poetry. I don’t mean that some parts of it defy any attempt to extract a simple prose meaning, though there are a couple of moments like that. I mean, among other things, some images, as of buffalo running over a cliff or monarch butterflies making their vast annual journeys or Tiger Woods putting in an appearance, do a lot of work. And there are rhapsodic sections that don’t bother with conventional sentence structures, but take the reader with them in not bothering. For example, there are six pages in which Little Dog, sings (that’s the only word for it) about Trevor, the first object of his troubled but reciprocated desire. Here’s a little of it:
Trevor going fifty through his daddy’s wheatfield. Who jams all his fries into a Whopper and chews with both feet on the gas. Your eyes closed, riding shotgun, the wheat a yellow confetti.
Three freckles on his nose.
Three periods to a boy-sentence.
Trevor Burger King over McDonald’s ’cause the smell of smoke on beef makes it real.
The Vietnam War, growing up Gay and Vietnamese in working-class Hartford, Connecticut, the ravages of the OxyContin epidemic, dementia: the book deals with difficult and sometimes tragic lives. But the writing is sharp and rich and, in the end, celebratory.
My favourite scene is the one where Little Dog comes out to his mother in a Dunkin’ Donuts: ‘I don’t like girls.’ The conversation that follows is not astonishingly original (‘Are you going to wear a dress now?’ ‘They’ll kill you, you know that.’ ‘When did all this start. I gave birth to a healthy, normal boy.’ But then:
When I thought it was over, that I’d done my unloading, you said, pushing your coffee aside, ‘Now I have something to tell you.’
My jaw clenched. This was not supposed to be an equal exchange, not a trade. I nodded as you spoke, feigning willingness.
‘You have an older brother.’ You swept your hair out of your eyes, unblinking. ‘But he’s dead.’
And a whole terrible part of his mother’s life is revealed to him. So I need to modify my description of the book as a portrait of the artist as a young man: it’s a portrait that includes an extraordinary openness to the generations that gave rise to the young man.
November verse 4: Midnight Tuesday over there(4 in the afternoon Wednesday here)
Two hundred million odd decisions.
Aggregate them, that's our fate:
a fresh start, maybe some solutions,
else the planet on a plate.
It's midnight last night where they're voting,
now all over bar much shouting,
counting, claim and counter claim
and – who knows – civil war's the game?
Here, next day, the sun is shining,
noisy miners bash the air
the magpies don't pretend to care,
and clouds are mostly silver lining.
'Six million Frenchmen can't be wrong' –
whoever said that is a nong.
Apologies to the French. ‘American’s didn’t fit the metre. And now I’ll go and look at the news.
It’s only the 3rd of November and here’s my third stanza. Maybe I can keep this up, or maybe all hell will break loose when the 3rd of November hits the USA, and I’ll never write another verse.
November Verse 3: JosephPrompted by the episode of ABC Radio's Conversationsin which Annabel Bower talks to Sarah Kanowski about the experience of stillbirth.
I don't know when I knew my mother
had a son who died at birth,
that I had one more older brother
one who never walked the earth.
I don't know when she told my sister
Joseph was his name. A whispered
revelation of old grief
kept locked away from time, the thief?
I know that when at seven, unknowing,
I chose Joseph as my saint
I saw no clue, however faint,
that that old wound had started glowing,
or maybe gave some ghostly joy
by channelling the other boy.
November verse 2:
First a paddock, now a quarry.
Ride on sheepback, ride in coal-cart
all the way to– Well I'm sorry,
who knows where? It takes a cold heart
not to quake when science gives notice
not to quail when Trump is POTUS,
not to dump Adani's deal,
not to see shit just got real.
Impervious to rhyme and reason,
evidence and sound advice,
our governments have, for a price –
praise be, and Kyrie eleison –
bent the knee to fossil fuels
like autogenocidal tools.
Judith Brett’s The Coal Curse is in part an update of Guy Pearse’s Quarterly Essay Nº 33, Quarry Vision (here’s a link to my recently-retrieved blog post about that). Much has changed in the decade between the two essays: the climate emergency has become more obviously pressing, community and business support for renewable energy has increased hugely, there’s much more scepticism about the future role of coal and gas in Australia’s economy in business circles (except, of course in the coal and gas industry). Dispiritingly, little has changed in the federal government’s hand in glove relationship with the fossil fuel industry, and the issue has become even more politicised, more enmeshed in culture wars.
This essay, Judith Brett writes in the introductory section, ‘is about the history of Australia as a commodity-exporting nation and its political consequences’:
Economic history is unfashionable nowadays. Economists focus on the modelling and management of the present and historians are more interested in stories and experience, and in uncovering diversity and neglected voices. Economic history is dry and hard to narrativise. But how a country makes its living can explain a lot.
I didn’t find this essay dry at all. Judith Brett writes with wonderful clarity. Every now and then she throws in a wry aside, an amusing factoid or a startling anecdote, but you’re never at risk of getting lost in a welter of detail or a barrage of polemic.
Here’s her argument in brief:
Australia is a trading nation. We have a small population, so exporting enables our companies to grow by reaching larger markets.
There has always been a divide between the export of commodities – wool until the 1950s, minerals since then – and manufactured goods. The first makes a lot more profit but employs many fewer people.
Because minerals export, especially coal and gas recently, is so profitable, it draws resources away from other exports and manufacturing.
With the minerals boom, our manufacturing sector has pretty much collapsed.
World markets for coal are decreasing dramatically as the rest of the world addresses climate change. Australian governments have been successfully captured by the fossil fuels lobby, and have not responded to the challenges of reality, as opposed to many in business and overwhelming public opinion.
Paraphrasing wildly now, if something doesn’t change dramatically soon, we’d better kiss our backsides goodbye.
Actually, Brett isn’t as pessimistic as that. But when she quotes an LNP Senator from Queensland saying what an honour it has been ‘to represent the Australian mining sector’ (page 62), she leaves the reader in no doubt that some politicians forget that they are, as she puts it, ‘our risk managers of last resort’.
As we expect in the Quarterly Essay, the correspondence on The Coal Curse in QE 79 is civil, nuanced and challenging. Andy Lloyd, who worked for Rio Tinto for 23 years, offers the equivalent of a ‘not all men’ argument, which blurs some of the edges of Judith Brett’s argument but makes no substantial difference. The other correspondents tend to emphasise the hopeful elements of the essay, pointing to promising activist strategies, actual developments in the business sector that indicate fossil fuels are heading for oblivion and the Australian government are likely to be left floundering behind the main game.
Stephen Bell, professor of political economy at the University of Queensland, articulates a key question that always lurks behind discussions of this sort:
Who reads this kind of history? Mostly, people already agree that coal is causing environmental devastation and the coal lobby is far too powerful. And almost certainly not those who have drunk the Coal-Aid, unless their aim is to lampoon it and its author, as the Murdoch stable is wont to do. This is the crisis of Australia’s intellectual life: the apparent impossibility of generating a constructive rational dialogue about anything in general, and about coal in particular.
(QE 79 page 128)
Martin Luther King Junior said, ‘The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.’ We’d better hope the arc isn’t too long.
Since 2010, inspired by National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), I’ve had a project of writing fourteen 14-line stanzas each November. Mistakenly believing my favourite stanza form was a sonnet, I called this project LoSoRhyMo – Local Sonnet Rhyming Month. It turns out that my form isn’t a sonnet but an Onegin stanza, but I’m keeping the label anyhow.
If you want to read past Novembers’ verses you can click on the LoSoRhyMo tag at the bottom of this blog post. Or you could go to my Publications page and buy one of the four little books made up from these and others of my adventures in verse.
Here goes for November 2020, a fresh start:
Verse 1: UnprecedentedagainYou can only be unprecedented once
(Michelle Goldman, Asthma Australia,
on ABC News, 31 October 2020)
A cataclysmic bushfire season
should be no surprise next time.
We've raked the ashes, learned the lessons,
know just how to lift our game.
Unprecedented 2020 –
fire, flood, plague and Rio Tinto –
warns us that we won't be spared
in days to come. Best be prepared!
Yet here's our precedented morning –
juice and coffee, jam and toast
the fifteen-thousandth time at least.
Each microsecond freshly dawning,
despite our habit-blinkered view,
is absolutely, freshly new.
This elegantly produced, limited-edition poetry book is a work of cultural retrieval and a labour of love.
Elza De Locre was the intimate partner of Jack Lindsay in the 1930s, when Lindsay was running the Fanfrolico Press in London along with P R Stephenson.
Whereas Jack’s father, Norman Lindsay, is still a household name in Australia, thanks mostly perhaps to The Magic Pudding, Jack himself, P R Stephenson and Fanfrolico Press, let alone Jack’s work as a Marxist literary critic after he broke from his father, would elicit blank stares in a pub trivia quiz. Even more so Jack’s tragic lover Elza, who even in her lifetime was better known for her bewitching beauty (she was the subject of Edith Young’s 1931 novel, Lisa) than for her poetry.
John Arnold is a distinguished Australian Literature scholar – he co-edited the four-volume Bibliography of Australian Literature (2001–2008), which has been described as ‘an essential reference work for the reading, study and collecting of Australian literature’. Among his more personal scholarly publications is The Fanfrolico Press: Satyrs, Fauns and Fine Books (2008). Now retired from his position of Head the National Centre for Australian Studies at Monash University, he has compiled this selection of Elza De Locre’s poems, and published it over his own imprint, Fanfrolico Two.
His introduction begins:
Elza De Locre is a now a forgotten minor figure of 1920s literary and artistic London. Her life started badly in 1897 and ended even more so in 1952. It was one of mystery, oppression and fighting mental demons, relieved only with occasional periods of freedom and beauty. Her story deserves to be told and this selection of her poetry has been compiled as a tribute to her.
The introduction gives a fascinating glimpse of the writerly life in 1920s bohemian England. Drawing on many sources, especially Jack Lindsay’s memoir Fanfrolico and After, it pieces together an outline of Elza’s life. Born illegitimate as Elsie May Hall in Bristol, by the time she met Jack Lindsay in 1926, she had lived through very hard times, married, had a daughter, found work where she could, including sex work, and gone by a number of names – Arnold lists nine. With Jack she found a turbulent but committed relationship, which didn’t stop her from becoming increasingly mentally troubled through the 1930s. In late 1941 when Jack was called up to the army, she couldn’t manage on her own and voluntarily went into a ‘mental home’. She then lived in a series of hospitals until her death eleven years later – Jack paid her expenses, but his own financial resources were limited.
Elza’s two books of poetry, a short story and ‘Time Please!, a light-hearted novel’ (co-authored with Jack) were published in the early years of her relationship with Jack.
Arnold quotes Jack as saying of her poems that many were ‘direct transcriptions of dreams, written down in the early morning’, and that their world ‘is one of elemental change and dissolution, with her lonely spirit pursued and tormented, finding release only in momentary identifications with the bright life of nature’. Ominously, Arnold says that some of the poems are ‘of genuine quality’,
So I approached the poems themselves as to a museum exhibit: of historical interest at best. And then was shocked by the intensity and rawness of many of them. I was expecting fairies and satyrs and classical references, and I got those, but I wasn’t expecting:
And always I would lose my way
And stumble over rotting minds,
Tree-roots in the darkness, thorns anywhere
And mangroves thrusting their fingers
Into my wounds
There are poems about life and death, about erotic annihilation, poems of ecstasy and terror and despair. There are some amazing poems about, of all things, the moon:
Her naked body lying on the waters
Shakes my five senses.
Jack Lindsay’s description of these poems as transcriptions of dreams rings completely true, and she had extraordinary and often terrible dream.
Here’s the shortest poem in the book:
THE LAST REFUGE
Twice in this life have I been dead;
But the mortal gods have bewitched me.
I have crawled back like a wretched slave.
Pelted with clods back to my body.
The third time I think I'll get away.
See what I mean? That looks very simple on first blush, but something in it niggles at you. The first line is startling enough, but enigmatic. Maybe it’s literal: two heart failures. Maybe it’s semi-literal: two suicide attempts. Maybe it’s completely metaphorical: two moments of existential nothingness. Maybe the speaker isn’t human, but a mythological character. The poem works for any one of these readings, for a kind of mental miasma containing all of them, or a reading that leaves the question hanging.
Then ‘the mortal gods’ can carry at least two meanings: the gods of death (we can assume the poet is influenced by the Lindsays’ brand of neo-paganism), or mere humans who take on themselves the godlike ability to bring someone back from the dead. Whether it’s human intervention or dumb luck, the effect is bewitchment – not so much a miraculous (Christian) resurrection as some kind of (pagan) magic.
She has crawled back ‘like a slave’. She has been deprived of agency and comes back from the dead against her own will.
The blunt physicality of ‘Pelted with clods back to my body’ is what makes the poem leap from the page; but that last word comes as a surprise. The being that is being pelted is not physical at all. It’s the soul – or disembodied mind, or whatever – being driven back to its bodily existence.
The last line here is a powerful, matter-of-fact embodiment of suicidal ideation. I’m not a fan of suicide poems, and I won’t be turning to this one in moments of depression. But this is a living voice speaking to us very directly, brought back from literary oblivion.
How May I Endure was printed in a limited edition. I am grateful to John Arnold and Fanfrolico Two (scholartis @ gmail.com) for my copy, which is number 61 of the 150 numbered paperback copies. There may be some copies left for sale.
I live very close to Enmore Park, a geometrically laid out green space that’s beautiful at this time of year. Here’s a little walk I took, along one of the diagonals, though a sandstone arch that’s a monument to colonial selfhood to the corner of the colonial-named Edinburgh Road and Victoria Road, and a reminder that colonisation is still alive and well and harsh.
The next five podcasts from the 2020 Sydney Writers’ Festival are all about fiction. My guess is I would have attended one out of five in a non-virtual festival, but my completist compulsion kicked in. The one I would have attended, the 50th session, is about the first book in the festival that I’ve actually read!
In the intro to the fifth session in this blog post, Michael Williams introduces himself without fanfare as the new Artistic Director of the Sydney Writers’ Festival. I for one welcome our new Melbourne overlord.
This conversation about Alex Dyson’s When It Drops is part of the festival’s YA podcast series. Will Kostakis, YA author himself, does a brilliant job, and Dyson’s experience as a morning radio presenter ensures that teh entertainment quotient is high. We don’t get to the content of the book until the 20 minute mark: before that there’s a lot of very funny chat about the difference between doing a radio show and writing a novel, about the horror of discovering a typo in a freshly published book, about tiny bits of celebrity gossip, about awkward love poetry written by both these men when they were teenagers.
Even then, the conversation doesn’t get stuck in laborious detail about the book’s characters and plot. We learn snippets of Alex Dyson’s life story, and then there’s non-spoilerish discussion of how those snippets relate to the book. At the end, it turns out that Alex Dyson ran for federal parliament last year, and he has some very smart things to say about that.
Jamaican-born Nicole Dennis-Benn now calls Brooklyn hoome. Her novel Patsy tells the story of a Jamaican woman who leaves her husband and five-year-old daughter for a new life where she can choose how to live, in the USA. In this conversation with Australian journalist and filmmaker Santilla Chingaipe, she lays out some of the issues the novel is responding to. At its heart there’s the question: ‘What do we lose or gain when we choose ourselves as women – especially as women – in society.’
It’s great to hear a clear voice speak about Jamaican society, including aspects of class, colonialism, the importance accorded skin colour, sexism; and about Jamaican Americans in relation to African Americans and others.
My two favourite moments in the conversation are being read to from the novel (always a pleasure, and in this case reassuringly concrete in the context of a conversation bristling with terms like ‘intergenerational trauma’), and Nicole Dennis-Benn’s response to the question, ‘How did Patsy find you?’ The novel started life as a series of letters from the character Patsy to her mother back in Jamaica. Then after a whole year, another voice turned up, a girl navigating a life in Jamaica without her mother:
I realised Patsy’s saying all these things to her mother in these letters, but she’s leaving out a lot of things. She’s leaving out how she’s really doing in America – you know, she was in that one room already in that first draft. But in addition to that, Patsy wasn’t telling me – the author – something: that she left a whole five-year-old daughter behind. … I kind of refused to believe that Patsy would actually do that, because I wanted to like Patsy, I judged Patsy initially when I found that out. But I continued the Dear Mama letters and then, draft two, I trashed that. I was like, ‘You know, Patsy, you gotta tell me the truth.’ And that’s what happened. She ended up revealing a lot more.
Heather Rose’s novel Bruny, the subject of this conversation, has disappointed friends of mine who loved her earlier novel, The Museum of Modern Love. Worse, one of the more forthright members of my Book Group virtually recoiled in horror when someone mentioned it. So I was tempted to bypass this session. I resisted the temptation.
It’s a conversation between Heather Rose and Suzanne Leal, lawyer, novelist and literary award judge. Perhaps there’s a bit too much information about the novel for anyone intending to read it, but this session managed to shift me from ‘almost certainly not’ to ‘maybe, or I might wait for the movie’. It’s a novel set in the near future when an erratic right-wing president of the USA is midway through a second term and the Chinese Communist Party is becoming more aggressively involved in Australian public life.
There’s some wonderful talk about Heather Rose’s creative process. The main character of Bruny, whom she imagines as played by Charlize Theron, feels to her like an imaginary friend who says and does things she would never dare do herself.A Vietnamese character in a previous book just wouldn’t speak to her until she had read a huge amount about the Vietnam War – and when that character does speak in the novel about her backstory, no reader could guess that the couple of sentences she speaks required so much arduous research.
I’ve read Favel Parrett’s earlier books, Past the Shallows (2011) and When the Night Comes (2014). A Czech friend said every Australian should read the subject of this conversation between the author and radio presenter Elizabeth McCarthy, There was Still Love. It’s on my TBR shelf. But I wasn’t keen on the podcast because I’ve heard Favel talk about the book at length on at least one other program, and – quite apart from actual spoilers – too much talk in advance can spoil the reading experience
In the event the conversation wasn’t spoilerish in any sense. They talked about the seeds of the book in Favel’s relationship with her Czech grandparents; her research, especially in her discovery of a cousin who had lived in Prague under Communism – which is the book’s setting, but also in her reading the history of Czechoslovakia and the Czech Republic under first the Nazis and then the Communists; the process of writing – this is her third novel, and the first that she has played close to her chest until she was confident she had reworked it enough that it didn’t need much rewriting; the book’s reception, including the top editor of Hachette who called to say she loved the manuscript, which Favel half expected no one would publish, and the Czech cousin who first wrote angrily that she had got a detail about food terribly wrong, and then wrote to say that he had cried for days. I’m looking forward to the book.
This is a book I’ve read before hearing about it from the SWF. I read Mirandi Riwoe’s Stone Sky Gold Mountain, loved it and blogged about it in June (here’s a link).
Here Mirandi Riwoe is in conversation with Rashida Murphy, who introduces herself as a first-generation immigrant woman from India, who is also a writer of novels, short stories, essay and poetry.
Ms Murphy starts out with outrage. Evidently it’s a word that Riwoe used when talking about her novella The Fish Girl, which is a retelling of a Somerset Maugham from the point of view of an Asian woman who appears in the original without a name or much sense of her as a full human being. The novella sounds very interesting, independent of its relationship to Maugham. (I confess to not having read any Maugham stories, but to have been mildly outraged or at least put off by the way he exoticises the tropics in a quote I’ve read somewhere.) Then the conversation moves to the question of some white people’s anger that this year’s Booker Prize didn’t go to Hilary Mantel. Riwoe politely and tactfully resists giving airtime to that point of view: she says that Mantel herself, while understandably disappointed, was gracious about the matter and we all got to know about a swath of writers not from the white mainstream.
The discussion of Stone Sky Gold Mountain is interesting, with an animating tension between the participants, Murphy again seeming to want Riwoe to rebut some (white?) critics while Riwoe seems happy not to define her work in opposition to someone else’s view. She talks interestingly about the book’s ghost elements, about how her research into the North Queensland goldfields transformed the book that she had thought she was writing from a cross-cultural love story into something much more interesting, about books she loved as a younger person. She mentions that Rashida has reviewed Stone Sky Gold Mountain, describing as ‘unflinching’ her accounts of violence against Chinese on the goldfields, and violence against the First Nations people, in which Chinese miners were complicit. She laughs, and says that she flinched a lot.
I was already a fan of Mirandi Riwoe as a writer. I’m relieved to say that she’s an excellent conversationalist as well.
Bill Bryson's view of the Danes always ready for a cheerfully intoxicated good time doesn't apply here. It traces the lives of a number of people in the days before a terrorist attack and, presumably, after.
According to IMDB, this is the fourth of six projected seasons. This is the one where Diana Spencer makes her appearance. And Maggie Thatcher, who is presented in counterpoint to her. Is it wrong to want Jeffrey Epstein to have a cameo role?

Eugene Kelly | GEOG17 | Released: 07/07/03
Geographic is very proud to announce four new songs from Eugene Kelly, a landmark release from the charismatic sometime stranger, being both the first music in his own name, and the first opportunity for 21st century people to roll up at a record shop, and say the hopeful words: "I'll have the new Eugene ep, please." The music they're about to find is closer to the innocent sound of The Vaselines than most of his 1990s output, albeit richly coloured by a reflective neo-folky quality, which for some may recall the optimistic sadness of Neil Young's On The Beach or Big Star's Third, and even some of the earlier Johnny Cash Columbia sides. But this music is more importantly confirmation that Eugene is now making his most personal and best music in over a decade. Check out the gorgeous slurred sound of it all, from "Older Faster" (the highlight of his recent triumphant shows with Teenage Fanclub), through "The Healing Power Of Firewalking" (inspired by his participation in The Last Great Wilderness), to the freefalling acoustic charms of "Something Wrong" and "Blessed And Misplaced", which show that Eugene is always about "the song". Kurt Cobain liked his songs so much he recorded three of them ("Molly's Lips", "Son Of A Gun" and "Jesus Doesn't Want me For A Sunbeam") for the legendary Nirvana Unplugged In New York set. Eugene has also written with Evan Dando, and with Norman Blake from Teenage Fanclub. He was a founder member of the incredible Scottish avant-folk pop group The Vaselines, whose original records, if you can find them, go for insane prices to Japanese and American collectors. The story of The Vaselines is of course that they only found their true audience after they'd split, when groups like Beat Happening, Mudhoney, Sonic Youth and Nirvana started citing them; maybe in the future some other hipsters will dig up nuggets from Eugene's subsequent groups, Captain America and Eugenius. But at the moment the main thing is not to let these beautiful new songs pass you by. Eugene, who lives in Glasgow, has also completed a new album, Man Alive.

Judging by his television commercials, George Bush has two running mates, Dan Quayle and Willie Horton. Of course, Horton, the vicious criminal who while on furlough from a Massachusetts prison terrorized a Maryland couple, is not really on the Republican ticket. But, then, crime is not really a legitimate campaign issue, although the candidates have tried hard enough to make it appear as one.
Bush has capitalized on the negative image of liberalism in the area of criminal justice, repeatedly charging his opponent with being more concerned with the rights of criminals than with their victims. He has characterized himself as a tough law-and-order candidate, boasting of his law enforcement endorsements and stumping with Horton`s victims. If his intention was to scare the voters into the polling booths, Bush`s strategy may very well have worked. According to a recent Harris poll, Bush`s ads claiming that Michael Dukakis is soft on crime have done more than anything else to sway the electorate toward the Republican ticket.
Yet these ads distort the facts. Under the Massachusetts furlough program, first-degree murderers were required to have served a minimum of 12 1/2 years in prison, longer than the average of time served before release for first-degree murderers nationally. Even then, acceptance into the program was far from automatic; only a very small percentage of those lifers who met the minimum requirements was approved for furlough. A John Wayne Gacy would hardly be among the select few. Finally, the Bush campaign ads ignore the fact that 35 other states operate furlough programs for murderers.
In any case, crimes like murder and rape are largely irrelevant to presidential decision-making. In fact, street crime is one of the few domestic problems to which the president, whoever he may be, is basically powerless to respond. Street criminals are apprehended by municipal police, processed through county courts and serve time in state correctional facilities.
In his defense against Bush`s attacks, Dukakis has sought to score politically by claiming credit for the declining rate of violent crime in Massachusetts. He has overlooked the fact that crime has dropped throughout the entire New England region largely due to changing demographic and economic conditions. Dukakis was simply in the right place at the right time.
It`s not just the candidates who have given undue attention to crime. The lead question posed during the second presidential debate challenged Dukakis on whether he might alter his anti-death-penalty stand if his own wife were the victim of rape and murder. This ``hypothetical`` would be important to Massachusetts voters if Dukakis were running for re-election to the governorship, but it loses its relevance in the presidential arena.
Like criminal justice matters generally, the death penalty for murder and rape is essentially a state rather than a federal issue. Since 1930, only 33 of the 3,952 executions in the United States were carried out under federal authority, and these few generally involved offenses like treason or espionage.
Bush has endorsed the proposed use of capital punishment for drug traffickers who kill law enforcement officers and, in doing so, has won over the support of police groups from Detroit to New York. Theoretically, this is a legitimate issue for the presidency, but only because the federal drug code is involved. This federal strategy will not affect the vast majority of police killings that occur in other types of skirmishes. Moreover, there are only a half dozen police officers killed each year in drug-related incidents nationally.
It is especially ironic that crime (as distinct from drugs) has become a major issue in this presidential campaign, because the rate of crime has declined nationally throughout the decade. According to Joseph Bessette, acting director of the Bureau of Justice Statistics, the level of criminal victimization in the United States is 16 percent lower now than in 1981.
History may help to clarify further the inappropriateness of crime as a presidential campaign issue. In 1980, even though the crime rate was at its highest level ever, the issue of crime did not play a role in the presidential election. During their debate, Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan discussed terrorism, nuclear arms, medical care for the aged, inflation and racial tensions. Neither candidate even used the word crime, much less mentioned the soaring crime rate.
Perhaps Carter and Reagan understood the limits inherent in the highest office in the land and decided to concentrate instead on issues over which they might exercise some control. Hopefully, during the waning days of this campaign, Bush and Dukakis will take a lesson from their predecessors and ignore the non-issue of crime.

Several college students affiliate the approach of very important essay together with the adverse belief concerning the creator. Nevertheless, during this circumstance it is not precisely genuine, mainly because critical in this article is much more seemingly to be used on the indicating of вЂњevaluativeвЂќ in equally constructive or unfavorable way dependant upon the idea of the author concerning the coherence, informativity along with the knowledge furnished while in the reserve or even the review.

Jean-Michel Basquiat’s painting of a skull sold for $110.5 million at Sotheby’s in New York, setting an auction record for American artists and providing a windfall for the daughter of two collectors who purchased it for $19,000 in 1984.
The buyer was billionaire Yusaku Maezawa, founder of a Japanese fashion website, and a new force in contemporary art. The work led four days of bellwether auctions in New York where the world’s wealthiest investors and families dropped more than $1.5 billion on Impressionist, modern, postwar and contemporary art. The results surpassed the target of $1.3 billion and the series conclude on Friday.
Basquiat’s canvas was last purchased at auction three decades ago by the late New York collectors Jerry and Emily Spiegel. It then disappeared from the public view until the couple died in 2009 and their art trove passed on to their two feuding daughters, according to people familiar with the matter.
The elder daughter, Pamela, consigned 107 works to Christie’s, which has sold about 50 lots for $125 million so far this week. The younger daughter, Lise, raised almost as much by selling just one painting — the Basquiat — at Sotheby’s. Arthur Sanders, Pamela’s husband, declined to comment on the sale. A representative for the other sister wasn’t immediately able to comment.

The Basquiat propelled Sotheby’s auction results to $319 million in sales, a 32 percent increase from a year ago. Fifty lots were offered and all but two sold.
The bidding for the painting started on May 18 at $57 million, sparking gasps in the packed salesroom, and lasted for more than 10 minutes as three parties chased after the work. The result ended up smashing Andy Warhol’s $105.4 million auction record and making Brooklyn-born Basquiat the most expensive American artist at auction. Basquiat died in 1988.
“I remember astounding the art world back in 1980s when I set an auction record for Basquiat at $99,000,” said Jeffrey Deitch, an art dealer who was the artist’s friend and champion. “All of us, Jean-Michel’s friends, we totally believed in his genius. I always thought he would be one day in the league of Picasso, Bacon and Van Gogh. The work has that iconic quality. His appeal is real.”
Sotheby’s had valued the work at more than $60 million and guaranteed the seller an undisclosed minimum price regardless of the bidding at the auction. Maezawa purchased a separate painting by the artist last year for $57.3 million.
Other Billionaires Bought and Sold Art…
Earlier on Thursday, casino magnate Steve Wynn, who is worth an estimated $2.6 billion, anonymously sold an abstract painting by Willem de Kooning at Phillips auction house, according to people familiar with the matter. Wynn’s work helped Phillips achieve one of its highest totals in the past decade. The boutique auction house tallied $110.3 million from sales, more than doubling its result from a year ago and selling all 37 lots it offered. Wynn and Phillips declined to comment.
Artist: Willem de Kooning
Artwork: “Untitled II” (1980)
Sale price: $13.1 million
Sale estimate: $12 million-$18 million
Previous auction record for artist: $66.3 million
On May 17, London-based jeweler and billionaire Laurence Graff bought two paintings from the Spiegel collection at Christie’s totaling $22.1 million.
Artist: Andy Warhol
Artwork: “Last Supper” (1986)
Sale price: $18.7 million
Sale estimate: $6 million-$8 million
Auction record for artist: $105.4 million
The Warhol painting was the top lot of the Spiegel collection at Christie’s and Graff outbid at least two other rivals to win it — adding a second Last Supper by the artist to his collection.
“I wanted it from the moment I saw it,” he said of the pink canvas. “It had to be mine. I paid full price. But the next one will be more.”
Artist: Francis Picabia
Artwork: “Adam et Eve”
Sale price: $3.4 million
Sale estimate: $1.5 million-$2 million
Auction record for artist: $8.8 million
“This Picabia is the masterpiece of his career,” said Graff.

Domaine de la Butte Bourgueil Haut de la Butte 2015
Blot employs the same exacting “lutte raisonee” vineyard practices in tending his white grapes in Montlouis and Vouvray. All the rows are plowed and no chemicals are used, to encourage the roots to penetrate deep into the subsoil. Blot keeps his yields low by removing buds at the beginning of the growing season and green harvesting in August. He removes leaves order to increase exposure to the sun, ensure aeration of the vines, and facilitate hand harvesting. All grapes are hand selected and picked at optimal maturity and then placed in small boxes for transport to the winery, where they are further sorted on a table de tri. The fruit is destemmed and descends by gravity into wooden and concrete fermentation tanks. Blot ferments each cuvee for different periods of time, using only native yeast.
The subtler and more delicate of the Cabernets, Cabernet Franc is a proud parent of Cabernet Sauvignon. While both are important grapes in modern day, high quality Bordeaux, interestingly, Cabernet Franc most likely originated from the Basque region of France sometime during the middle 1600’s. Today Cabernet Franc produces outstanding single varietal wines across the wine producing world, with some of its most classic examples from France’s Loire Valley, in the regions of Chinon, Bourgueil and Saumur-Champigny. Outside of France, Cabernet Franc performs quite well in parts of California, New York and Virginia. It is also a great blending grape.
In the Glass
Cabernet Franc typically tastes of red raspberries, cherries and herbs, with a stunning perfume of violets, tobacco and spice.
Mouthwatering acidity makes Cabernet Franc an incredibly food-friendly wine, helping to cut through the richness of fatty meat dishes. It especially shines in tandem with lamb, and its affinity for the spice cabinet allows it to pair perfectly with Chinese dishes prepared with Szechuan pepper and five-spice.
One of California's best-kept secrets is the Happy Canyon appellation of Santa Barbara. Here Cabernet Franc shines as a single varietal wine or in blends, expressing sumptuous fruit, savory aromas and polished tannins.

Emerging Molecular Pathways Involved in Pathophysiology of Cardiac Remodeling
Mammalian heart is a dynamic organ that can adapt morphological changes in response to alteration in workload. Various clinical and experimental findings revealed that in response to physiological stimuli or pathological insults, the heart undergoes cardiac remodeling which can be characterized by molecular, cellular or interstitial changes and can be manifested clinically as changes in size, shape and pumping function of the heart. A Sound understanding of changes in hearts cellular and molecular components and to mediators that derive homeostatic control is necessary before a specific intervention is pursued. Summarized data of this review comprises role of various novel emerging molecular pathways involvement in the pathophysiology of cardiac remodeling.
Keywords: Cardiac remodeling, hypertrophy, protein kinase, heart failure, molecular targets, pathological insult.

Rolling Stones Rock Small Paris Club Show
Mere hours after announcing that they would be selling 350 tickets for the surprise gig -- held at the small Trabendo theater in Paris -- the band took the stage for a brief 10-song set (with a pair of encores) meant to help them shake the rust off in time for their 50th anniversary shows, scheduled for November and December in London and New Jersey.
The Stones put a moratorium on any recording devices at the Paris gig, but we'll still be pretty surprised if no audio or video ends up leaking -- and in the meantime, you can look over the complete set list, which includes a number of hits, the new song 'Doom and Gloom,' and covers of songs by Muddy Waters and Nat 'King' Cole.
Update: look what just turned up - eight minutes of video!

Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Wednesday proposed competitive grants to entice school districts across New York state to adopt policies such as full-day prekindergarten for low-income students, longer school days and years, and new technology programs.
During his state of the state address, the governor didn’t say how much money he would make available for the programs — or how the districts would continue funding the programs after the grants run out.
Cuomo also said that districts would once again be required to have new teacher evaluations in place in the 2014-15 school year in order to receive any increase in state funding. This year, New York City and a handful of other districts are at risk of losing up to 4% of their state aid because they haven’t hammered out a deal on those evaluations yet, and the deadline is Jan. 17.
Cuomo’s recommendations mirrored many of those outlined in a report issued last week by a commission he convened in April.

Cuomo has used competitive grants in each of his last two budgets to try to reward good performance or efficiency in schools — about $250 million out of $20 billion sent to local districts this year. Some school officials and members of the Board of Regents have said the money shouldn’t be held back in a segregated pot when all school districts were feeling the pinch of a 2% property tax cap.
Signs of pushback on Wednesday were immediately apparent as Cuomo delivered his speech. The New York State School Boards Association tweeted that the governor should keep competitive grants out of general education funding.
“We don’t want to make schools compete for general school aid or reduce basic operating aid,” one tweet said.
On Wednesday, the governor laid out a much more detailed round of grants, with relatively popular ideas such as funding to add 25% more teaching time to school days or years. Districts could also apply for grants to add full-day prekindergarten — or at least five hours a day — for the highest-need students.
Cuomo also proposed tougher standards for new teachers, including more rigorous student-teaching requirements and higher admissions requirements for teaching programs at the State University of New York and City University of New York, which aides said would come in the form of GPA requirements. The state also is in the process of creating a new test for incoming teachers, which has been likened to a bar exam for law students.
The governor also said he would like to pay the best teachers additional stipends to act as mentors and instructors to other teachers by expanding a program called Math for America throughout the state. The program would provide $15,000 a year for four years to so-called “master teachers.”
The education proposals avoided more controversial topics, such as the distribution of state aid to districts based on need and anything related to charter schools.
Cuomo also said he supported paying teachers for good performance, but his description stopped short of what most people think of as “merit pay”: increased pay or bonuses based solely on whether teachers are effective. Instead, Cuomo said he supported paying effective teachers to help mentor and train other teachers or paying them more for doing more.
The proposals were widely praised. Both the leadership of the city Department of Education and of its frequent union adversary, the United Federation of Teachers, found things they liked. The union especially supported a proposal to centralize services in individual schools, while the city highlighted extended learning and early childhood education programs.

Originally reviewed here.
This was the 2016 Queen of Trios final.
This was a unsurprisingly a very strong effort and very satisfying conclusion to yet another successful QUEEN of Trios weekend. Both teams sold the contest as important, the injured parties were still selling from events earlier in the show, and the action was basically fun from beginning to end. While you could argue that Chikara forced this moment or that this weekend should be used to push regular roster members, there is no question that the final served its main goals and was presented well. Satomura eventually won with a DVD on Katsu. (***¼)

Drawing inspiration from the critique by Patricia Hill Collins of the “Eurocentric, masculinist knowledge-validation process,” the author examines various ways in which universities, both in Britain and the U.S., have long suppressed critical inquiry into the history of empire, slavery and the slave trade. Parallel to this critique, he examines museums and other memorial sites devoted to slavery in Britain and the U.S., including a small number of initiatives that challenge hegemonic accounts and draw attention to the agency and the resistance of the enslaved. He further draws attention to initiatives within academic institutions in the U.S., Britain and other parts of Europe to challenge dominant accounts of slavery and its legacy.

Satellite navigations get $570M in support
- By John Monroe
- May 19, 1996
The General Services Administration recently launched a $570 million program to provide support services to the Federal Aviation Administration, the Defense Department and other agencies interested in developing satellite-based navigation projects.
GSA's Federal Systems Integration and Management (Fedsim) program office selected Harris Corp., PRC Inc., Raytheon Service Company and Wilcox Electric Inc. to compete for task orders for up to seven years under the Global Positioning System Support Services program.
Fedsim created the contract so agencies that are interested in exploring GPS augmentation projects would not have to invest the time and money needed to launch their own program, said Keith Sandridge, director of the Fedsim contracting center.
"GPS usage is expanding, and this is an opportunity for us to create a contract vehicle to be used by numerous federal agencies as they decide to take advantage of the field," Sandridge said.
Under the new program, Fedsim will be able to provide the FAA with a 60- to 90-day turnaround on task orders.
Although the program scope does not include hardware for actually building systems, the FAA and other agencies can use the vehicle to conduct studies, build proof-of-concept projects and provide acquisition and technical support for GPS augmentation.
In fact, outside of providing hardware, "you can do almost anything under this contract," said Bob Coulson, Harris' program manager for the Fedsim project.
In the early going, the FAA is expected to be the primary customer, according to industry sources. The FAA worked very closely with Fedsim to draw up the statement of work, program specifications and evaluation criteria.
WAAS vs. LAAS
The FAA last year began developing the Wide-Area Augmentation System, which will provide accurate and reliable GPS signals through a combination of satellites and a nationwide network of ground-based augmentation systems. WAAS is being developed under a contract with Hughes Data Systems.
However, the FAA and aviation industry representatives believe Local-Area Augmentation Systems will be necessary to take advantage of GPS technology. LAAS will augment the GPS signal for specific regions—such as an airport—providing accurate enough positioning information for use in very low-visibility landings and for surface traffic management.
The FAA is expected to use this contract to validate LAAS concepts and to begin development of program specifications and acquisition, sources said. The FAA, dealing with the recent ValuJet airline crash, was not available for comment.
Several of the prime contractors have already worked with the FAA to develop future capabilities based on GPS. Wilcox last year completed an FAA project to validate the viability of GPS for low-visibility landings. Wilcox expects to leverage that experience on future projects.
"Architectural validation is really a critical next step to help lead the industry toward standardization of signal in space and a standard design specification that both the ground suppliers and avionics manufacturers could use as a basis for their own independent research and development," said Wayne Dohlman, director of advanced systems at Wilcox, Kansas City, Mo.
Wilcox also was the original prime contractor on WAAS, but it lost the contract because of management problems.
Harris Corp.—with a team that includes Lockheed Martin Corp., Trimble Navigation, Honeywell and United Airlines—has done extensive work on its own initiative in GPS, working with flight schools at the Florida Institute of Technology and with Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. Harris runs a GPS testbed in Melbourne, Fla. Working with the flight schools, Harris developed an Automatic Dependent Surveillance system for an aviation program in the Figi Islands, Coulson said.
The Fedsim contract represents the first major integration contract in aviation for PRC, a subsidiary of Litton Industries Inc. Its 10 teammates—including E-Systems, Rockwell and CTA—all have experience as FAA suppliers, said Keith Reynolds, PRC's account manager for transportation programs. PRC also will work with American Airlines and the United Parcel Service for operational testing, Reynolds said.
Raytheon declined to comment on the new contract.
Although the FAA may be the primary customer out of the gate, Fedsim does expect other agencies to take advantage of this new vehicle.
"Our hope is this will be a popular service," Sandridge said. "There have been some other agencies that have called and inquired [about the program], and some of the contractors have said they had some inquiries about this."


A number of consignments were intercepted
Ecstasy tablets with an estimated street value of €50,000 have been seized in Galway.
The find was made as part of ongoing joint investigations targeting drug trafficking.
It resulted in the identification and interception of a number of consignments of ecstasy tablets.
A subsequent search on Friday resulted in the seizure of approximately 4,000 tablets and a small quantity herbal cannabis.
The drugs were believed to be destined for the Galway 'Rag Week' market.
Two men aged in their early 20s have been arrested.
Joint investigations are continuing domestically and internationally.
The two suspects are detained at Galway garda station, Mill Street under the Criminal Justice Act.
Revenue's Customs Drugs Law Enforcement and the Drugs and Organised Crime Bureau were supported by officers from the Galway regional drugs unit.

When is the world’s tallest dog not the world’s tallest dog?
When there’s quite possibly a taller one, but that one’s owner doesn’t get the paperwork into Guinness World Records officials in time.
Titan, left, was crowned the world’s tallest dog Thursday by Guinness World Records officials. But Arizona Realtor Dave Nasser, who has been campaigning to get his dog George, right, named the world’s tallest, says his dog, by some measurements at least, is three-fourths of an inch higher.
After his dog was measured at 42 inches, Nasser got a second and third opinion on his dog’s height, which, respectively, showed George to be 42.625, or 43 inches tall at the shoulder.
Proving, I guess, that the top of the shoulder is in the eye of the beholder.
As a result of all the measurement seeking, Nasser didn’t get the application into Guinness in time to compete with Titan, who is owned by Diana Taylor of San Diego, and is 42.25 inches tall.
“It’s just bad timing. I can’t say anything bad about Guinness,” said Nasser. “We sent the paperwork to them Tuesday and they got it Thursday. The winner had a plaque in hand Thursday. … we were just late to the game.”
Nasser said he wasn’t aware of a deadline, or that Nov. 12 was Guinness World Record Day, Phil Villarreal reported in the Arizona Daily Star.
Nasser said he spoke on the phone Friday with a Guinness representative in London, who said the company was verifying George’s application and that there was no time frame as to when a decision will be made on whether George will displace Titan..
“Guinness World Records received a massive influx of claims after the death of Gibson (the previous world’s tallest dog) this year. The organization is familiar with George’s claim but is still assessing proper evidence before properly authenticating,” a Guinness spokesman told the Star on Friday … Verifying record proposals is a meticulous process that is not done overnight. It could take months for the research team to make the decision. ”
Nasser says he has offered to bring George and Titan together to see which dog is bigger.

The debate raging here on ohmidog! — and in the rest of the world, too — just had a little more fuel thrown on it: A new British study says dominance-based dog training techniques such as those espoused by Cesar Millan are a waste of time and may make dogs more aggressive.
Researchers from the University of Bristol’s Department of Clinical Veterinary Sciences, after studying dogs for six months, conclude that, contrary to popular belief, dogs are not trying to assert their dominance over their canine or human “pack” and aren’t motivated by maintaining their place in the pecking order.
One of the scientists behind the study, Dr. Rachel Casey, in an interview with ABC News, said the blanket assumption that every dog is motivated by some innate desire to control people or other dogs is “frankly ridiculous.”

The Uttar Pradesh Police on Tuesday arrested a BJP office-bearer for making derogatory comments about Prophet Muhammad, days after Kanpur witnessed communal clashes. The arrested BJP functionary has been identified as Harshit Srivastava, who’s a district leader of the BJP’s youth wing in Kanpur.
Harshit Srivastava has been booked under sections 153A, 295A and 507 of IPC and section 67 of the IT Act.
Srivastava too had posted an objectionable tweet, which has now been deleted.
Nupur Sharma’s comments on a Times Now show presented by Navika Kumar had triggered a global controversy with more than a dozen Muslim countries registering their official protests. The Indian government was forced to issue a clarification, reiterating its resolve to respect every religion in the country.
This comes just hours after the BJP expelled one of its spokespersons, Naveen Kumar Jindal, from the party for posting an insulting tweet for Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and suspended Nupur Sharma from the primary membership of the party for six years.
As many as 15 Islamic nations had registered their official protest over the objectionable remarks made by the BJP functionaries about Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

Is the comet about to strike?
It seems as though Epic Games is gearing up to make an announcement regarding Fortnite: Battle Royale soon. They posted an image on their Twitter account of an “emergency broadcast” (apparently, that is also being broadcast on every TV in game)- which means something is about to happen.
There are theories on what this might mean- maybe it has something to do with the comet in game (which has steadily been coming closer, and is commonly speculated to destroy some part of the map), and Titled is getting nuked out of existence. Maybe this is just details on an upcoming Season 4. Maybe Epic Games has achieved the impossible, and Fortnite will be the first game to achieve full cross platform play. We don’t know yet.
Whatever it is, it should be announced soon, hopefully- and whatever it is, it should hopefully send shock waves through Fortnite‘s hugely engaged player base.

SHELBYVILLE, KY (WAVE) - A Shelby County special education teacher is facing child sex charges. 42-year-old Shannon Hirchert is accused of having five sexual encounters with one student and one encounter with another student.
The Shelby County Sheriff's Department said both boys were under age 18 and were not in Hirchert's class. She is charged with six counts of sexual abuse and two counts of distribution of obscene material to a minor.
According to James Neihof, superintendent of the Shelby County Public Schools, Hirchert transferred to the district from the Oldham County Public Schools a year ago.
The alleged encounters happened in various locations across the county between September and December 2010. According to the sheriff's department, that included Martha Layne Collins High School. Neihof told us how they found out about it.
"An employee overheard some conversations and started putting two and two together and began asking questions," said Neihof.
Detective Jason Rice said they began interviewing the parties involved and those interviews led to the arrest of the teacher Wednesday.
The two counts of sending obscene matter to minors are because police say was Hirchert sending pornographic pictures to the boys from her cell phone.
"I'm extremely disappointed and I'm appalled by what has been reported about the conduct of one of our employees," Neihof said.
Neihof said the school system is cooperating with the ongoing police investigation and asked that anyone with information call the Shelby County Sheriff's Department or his office.
Our calls to Hirchert were not returned.
