The CW’s Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover event wrapped up last night and… you did it, you crazy bastards actually did it.
Comparatively speaking, this epic 5-part crossover between the majority of the CW’s DC superhero shows was just as ambitious as the MCU’s Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame. A bold statement, I know. There will be people rushing to comment that the special effects work was a little dodgy in parts and the final battles took place in a rock quarry and…parking lot respectively but those are minor quibbles compared to what the crossover gave us. Let’s run down some of my favourites.
The Flash of Earth-90
Way, way back in prehistoric times DC was riding high on the success of the 1989 Tim Burton Batman movie which spawned dozens of similarly styled imitators. Some enterprising soul at the TV arm of Warner Bros had the great idea of doing a weekly TV show that would give viewers their dark superhero fix on a weekly basis and they decided on…The Flash?
Complete with his own Danny Elfman theme music and a city that was modern but with anachronistic Art Deco styling and cars from the 1950s The Flash sped onto TV screens in the Fall of 1990…and I was completely enraptured with the show. The first half of the season had The Flash fighting gangsters and other street-level criminals (much like Batman) but the second half of the season started dipping into the more fantastic elements of the character by giving us Rogues like Mirror Master, Captain Cold, and most importantly Mark Hamill’s The Trickster.
Then, after one brief and glorious season…it was gone. Deemed too expensive to produce it was put out to pasture by Spring 1991.
When the CW’s The Flash went into production I was ecstatic that John Wesley Shipp was joining the cast as Barry’s father, Henry Allen (and later as the Earth-2 and later still as…Barry Allen). The show went to amazing lengths to include actors from the 1990 TV show and wormed its way into my heart by beating the holy hell out of my nostalgia.
This all culminated last year when they put Shipp back into his old Flash costume during the Elseworlds event and having him once again play Barry Allen from Earth-90…which I can still barely comprehend. The Flash-90 reappeared during Crisis and made the Ultimate Sacrifice to stop the Anti-Monitor in a sequence reminiscent of Crisis on Infinite Earths #8. The sequence provided an amazing coda to the 1990 The Flash series by incorporating footage from the old show and was a fitting send-off for a show that never got one thirty years ago.
I think we can all agree that the hands-down best part of the 2006 Superman Returns movie was Brandon Routh’s portrayal of The Man of Steel. The general consensus was that we all wanted to see MORE of Routh but WB seemed intent on making Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy and…Green Lantern. Eventually, Routh was cast as Ray Palmer/The Atom on Arrow which spun him off into Legends of Tomorrow and it was cool to see him playing a superhero once again but there was always that “what if?” floating around in the ether.
During previous CW crossovers jokes were made about Supergirl resembling Ray Palmer’s cousin and they seemed intent to dangle that carrot in front of the audience…until this year. When it was announced that Routh was once again putting on the blue tights at last year’s SDCC people (myself included) flipped out…and did so again when they released the first promotional photo of him as a Kingdom Come-inspired, older Superman.
Seeing Routh in action again as Superman was a rare glimpse at what could have been…and what could have been was awesome.
THAT Flash Cameo
Probably the most surprising element of the whole event from a “how the hell did they pull this off?” perspective was Grant Gustin’s Flash crossing paths with EZRA MILLER’S Flash insides the Speed Force. I consider myself fairly unflappable but I was indeed flapped when the DCEU’s Flash appeared on-screen about 20 minutes into Part 4 of Crisis. Truth be told, I had to go back and rewatch the scene later because my brain blew a fuse and couldn’t comprehend what was happening.
The cameo was staggering from just a logistical standpoint considering the WB won’t allow its golden goose character Batman to appear on TV unless it’s as Bruce Wayne OR in shadow. Secondly, the fact that they kept this information under wraps was an impressive feat. During the break between parts 3 and 4 it was said that even more cameos were being filmed in secret…well I guess this was it.
While I wasn’t particularly a fan of the Justice League movie I enjoyed Miller and their portrayal of The Flash and the wait for the DCEU’s Flash movie is maddening. To put things in perspective it was announced before the current TV show started and probably won’t hit theatres until after the show has concluded its run. Miller seems to really love the character and I feel that they were totally on board with doing the cameo. There was an interview from several years back where Miller was asked about being one of two actors currently playing The Flash. In their answer, Miller referenced the multiverse and kind of won me over all while speaking this cameo into existence.
To say that my Twitter timeline burst into flames when the cameo happened would be a vast understatement. It was nice, as a comic book fan, to see the multiverse realized in such a way.
Bringing it all home to Earth-Prime, there were several other amazing moments and surprises scattered throughout Crisis on Infinite Earths. The CW had to stick it to the MCU by having Oliver Queen out-Tony Stark Tony Stark by giving him not one BUT TWO dramatic death scenes. We got KEVIN CONROY playing an older Bruce Wayne! They used The Superfriends theme music! GLEEK! How is any of this real?
Crisis on Infinite Earths was amazingly fun and everything I ever wanted out of a live-action DC comics adaptation. Who would have thought it would have aired on network TV?

I initially thought this was a beautiful car in pictures but seeing it up close and personal was amazing! The car was in tremendous shape and still had that "new car" smell. Carmax sells cars in top shape and virtually show room quality. It didn't feel like a used car at all.

With the city facing ever more glaring needs as it prepares for winter during the pandemic, Montreal's mayor welcomed a deal between Quebec and Ottawa to finance social housing. But new projects are years away from fruition.
The mayors of Montreal, Quebec City and Gatineau are hailing a new federal-provincial deal-in-principle on affordable housing. Under the new deal, $1.4 billion will go to fund affordable housing in cities throughout the province of Quebec.
Long-awaited renovations for 36 housing units in Nova Scotia run by Tawaak Housing Association are underway, and the organization says there are significant new measures being taken to reassure tenants the work is done well.

The 007 ELEMENTS exhibition focuses on the Spectre movie shot in the surroundings of Sölden
Fans of the James Bond movies will soon have the opportunity to explore the unique sets of the films in the Austrian Alps.
A new exhibition named 007 ELEMENTS is about to open on the top of Gaislachkogl Mountain in Sölden offering visitors a series of galleries, each featuring the craft of the signature elements that define the cult films. The main focus of the installation, however, has been set to reflect Spectre, which was shot in certain areas of Sölden.
It’s an authentic James Bond movie location, it’s inside the top of a mountain at 3,000 meters up in the air,” creative director and James Bond art director Neal Callow told CNN Travel. Callow worked on the past four Bond films, Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace, Skyfall and Spectre.
“Our aim with 007 ELEMENTS is to tell the story of the making of 007 films in an ultra-modern, emotive and engaging way. We want to use this incredible location to place our guests into Bond’s environment, and bring the stories to life in a unique and unforgettable way.”
Callow said that Sölden was chosen for some key scenes of Spectre.
BRIEFING ROOM. Actress Naomie Harris, who plays Moneypenny, narrates an exclusive film that explains how the series’ scriptwriting has led to location choices, and how these locations have, in turn, inspired some of the series’ most iconic studio sets. Special attention is given to the locations that form the story-scape for Spectre’s Austrian action sequence. @optimistdesign #007elements #jamesbond
“We were looking for a perfect environment for the character of Dr Madeleine Swann, who is a character in the Bond movie, she has this kind of frosty meeting with James Bond,” he said.
“And we were looking for somewhere high in the mountains with a unique, modern piece of architectural style.”
Opening on 12 July, the museum will be reached via the Gaislachkoglbahn cable car.

Heavy Rain has smashed Sony’s sales expectations by shifting 1.5 million units worldwide, says developer David Cage.
Speaking at GDC Europe in Cologne, the Quantic Dream founder said the title would sell 2m units before the year is up.
Back in April, Cage predicted the game would only sell 1.5m copies in total.
The achievement is all the more remarkable as Heavy Rain has held its RRP since its launch, he told the audience. He went on to add that the average review score for Heavy Rain – based on almost 500 reviews – is at over 90, which was key to the game’s long-term success.
Metacritic currently has the game at 87, based on 107 reviews.

After announcing Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and five others would be tried in New York City in a civilian court rather than by a military tribunal, Attorney General Holder was asked a question by Senator Graham.
“Can you give me a case in United States history where a[n] enemy combatant caught on a battlefield was tried in civilian court?” Senator Graham asked Holder.
Responding, Holder said, “I don’t know. I’d have to look at that. I think that, you know, the determination I’ve made…” Graham interjected, “We’re making history here, Mr. Attorney General. I’ll answer it for you. The answer is no.”
It is mind-boggling that the Attorney General could make such an earth-shattering, precedent-setting decision, but not know that it was actually precedent-setting.
By his own admission, the Attorney General made an historic determination without understanding that he was setting a precedent and that it had ramifications.
By this decision, the protections afforded US citizens and visitors to the US are now to be extended to enemy combatants, who were never in the US, but who now may remain in the US forever.
Those ramifications aside, the most confounding thing is that the Attorney General couldn’t answer the Senator’s question and acted as though he had never considered such an obvious point.
On what basis did he make his determination?

Mwamba Bush Camp
Mwamba Bush Camp lies in the heart of the South Luangwa Valley and is owned and run by Derek and Juliet Shenton. Its secluded setting allows for remote and exclusive safaris, and Derek’s intimate knowledge of the bush makes every safari a unique experience.
The chalets are built from reed and thatch and each has a large skylight in the roof which, protected by mosquito netting, allows guests to “sleep under the stars” in the comfort of their own room. The accommodation cleverly blends back to nature simplicity with essential comfort, and each of the three chalets has solar lighting and private bathrooms.
The camp offers both walking and vehicle-based game drives, and photographers will be interested in the nearby hides which allow for some spectacular picture opportunities. There is plenty of game in the area, with large herds of buffalo, eland and a resident pride of lions. Leopard sightings are also good.

Would you trust Jack Black with your kids? Probably not after you see what he teaches in School of Rock, reports Garry Maddox.
Jack Black is barrelling across the lawn by the harbour, chasing two of his young co-stars. When a photographer needs another take, the comedian and musician does it again and adds a series of leaps to his rubber-faced antics.
The fact these leaps are more bull rhino than ballerina adds to the comic effect.
It has been a busy morning in Sydney for the star of the comedy School of Rock. After a television interview beneath the bridge, Black has improvised some funny promos, greeted fans, pulled faces, had his picture taken from all angles, signed autographs and ordered a late lunch on the run.
By the time he's sitting in a nearby hotel, he's a more subdued character.
Black is less the movie star, more the solid Californian guy in the blue trackpants and check shirt who would hardly draw a second glance if he hadn't become a hot comic after High Fidelity, Shallow Hal and his rock take-offs with the band Tenacious D.
Getting down to business, Black says his limo driver rated him six out of 10 for his performance on Rove Live earlier in the week.
"Do you know my limo driver?" he says.
He's good. I gave him six out of 10."
But the batteries seem to be running low after a month promoting School of Rock in the US and three days in Australia. The comic moments are becoming more intermittent.
Black admits that he is unsure what to wear to his film that night.
"I didn't bring any fancy clothes because I forgot about the premiere," he says. "But if there's time for shopping, I might go out and rent a tux."
Sometimes it seems tougher selling a film than making it, but at least Black has an entertaining film to promote.
He plays a failed rocker who becomes a substitute teacher in an exclusive school, turning some nerdish classical musicians into hard rockers for a Battle of the Bands.
The film was written for him by a one-time next-door neighbour, Mike White, who plays Black's long-suffering flatmate in School of Rock.
The combination sounds like a comic riff in itself. Black collaborates with White. Black read what White wrote. And when it works in cinemas, Black rolls in green.
"He wrote a movie called Chuck and Buck that was really twisted and funny and dark," Black says about his friend. "I was obsessed with him and I wanted to be in one of his movies that he was writing.
"He wrote Orange County, which I had a little part in and had a great time doing. Then he called me on the phone and said, 'Hey, I've got an idea where you'd play a substitute teacher who's actually a failed and frustrated rocker.'
"I thought that was really funny the idea that I would play this desperate, bitter musician. It rang the comedy bell in my head."
Given it was written specifically for him, does he think anyone else could have played the role?
"Adam Sandler would have been great," he says after a moment's thought. "He rocks. He has got an album out. And who else? Nope. Thats it. Me and Sandler."
Black has almost become a rock icon in his own right after playing a record-store tragic in High Fidelity, performing and recording with Tenacious D and now writing a film about the band called Tenacious D: In The Pick Of Destiny.
He says rock represents freedom of expression in School of Rock.
"It's a creative explosion in my mind, thats what rock is."
Isn't rap more the spirit of rebellion now?
"You don't have to rock to be rocking," says Black. "There are certain rappers that I think are rocking. Like Outkast, I think they rock. It just doesn't sound so good to say, 'Man, that guy is rapping', 'That is so rap'.
But even Black admits that rock was definitely better 10 or 20 years ago.
"There were more rock gods. Now there are still some great bands the White Stripes, the Strokes, Queens of the Stone Age but they're not gods! But you never know when the next rock movement will happen."
His own rock tastes include AC/DC.
"They were one of the first bands I think that were really funny and really hard rockin' at the same time, says Black.
As his batteries spurt back to life, Black says he wants to step away from rock movies soon.
"Try to switch gears a little bit," he says. "Do something with, ah, Cate Blanchett. About an Englishman who cries in a war.
"It's called A Crying Englishman in A War. It's a piece written by Boguslovski."
Then he's off. Enough Boguslovski for one day.

Comfortis Tablets are for the treatment and prevention of flea infestations.
Comfortis chewable tablets kill fleas and are indicated for the prevention and treatment of flea infestations (Ctenocephalides felis) for one month.
The drug is lethal to blood sucking insects but has little or no effect on dogs. (Occasionally dogs will vomit after taking a tablet.) It is best to give Comfortis with food, this reduces the chances of vomiting as well as enabling a more persistent flea-killing effect afterwards, so that one tablet will last for the whole month.
Comfortis tablets comes in multiple sizes to suit dogs of different body weights and two sizes for cats.
Comfortis is not recommended for dogs under 14 weeks of age, or less than 3.9kg bodyweight.

David Allen’s classic Getting Things Done (GTD) has sold over a million copies and has been translated into dozens of languages, making it the bible of stress-free productivity and the ultimate book on personal organization. Time magazine called it “the definitive business self-help book of the decade.”
Allen, now with Mike Williams and Mark Wallace, turns his attention to the next generation with Getting Things Done for Teens: Take Control of Your Life in a Distracting World (A Penguin Books Original), a strategic guidebook for creating the conditions for a fruitful and effective future.
The world has changed exponentially in the past decade. We have entered an age of massive digital connectivity. There is more information, more communication, more inputs—more “stuff”—than ever before. In spite of these changes, we are educating the next generation in much the same way as we always have. Overload and distraction are real pitfalls in the lives of teenagers and can be powerful, addicting, even crippling.
Getting Things Done for Teens offers a fresh take on the GTD methodology. It presents GTD in a highly visual way and frames the methodology as not only as a system for being productive in school, but as a set of tools for everyday life. It is about establishing some simple behaviors and some patterns of thinking that give better control over the stuff coming at us, better perspective to help know where we are heading, and simple thought processes that can be applied to any situation and can lead to desired results.
ABOUT THE AUTHORS: David Allen is an international best-selling author who is widely recognized as the world's leading expert on personal and organizational productivity. Mike Williams was President & CEO of The David Allen company from 2011 to 2016. Mark Wallace has taught in public schools in Minnesota for over 20 years and has won the TIES Distinguished Educator Award.

This Friday I get to goof off and relax a little. As posted yesterday, I finished the second draft of my screenplay, and it was a happy moment in my day. I went into hand editing the second draft up to page fifty. Will type the corrections soon. I feel I need some game time and some hot tea to sip. Didn’t feel any other creative urges yesterday, not that my plate wan’t full with revisions. I dunno if I need a recharge, or an unplug from all the crap the week tends to throw my way. I should have fun as well.
I need to pick a few movies and wolf them down, visually, of course. Today’s been me watching some news, scenes from soap operas (my guilty pleasure), and loafing about. Decided I did need some music as I typed. Picked Toni Braxton (I love the songs from her Secrets CD).
Looking around, and I know sometime today I have to clean this living room. It needs some order, and the chaos is too dominant. Also need to make up my bed. Yes, it’s been that kind of lazy day. Somehow this is all fuel for my creativity. The fact that I need a “turn off” point seems to enhance my sense of creativity. That’s happened in the past.
Been having weird dreams where I make commentary on my life in them. Like why some dreams are bitter or bittersweet. I never thought about it until I had that dream. Also weird sexy dreams came up. I said weird cause they seemed to come from nowhere and I was having all this bitter stuff going on in my head. So maybe bitter and sex should not be in the same sentence, but here they are, in this big ole empty room, staring each other down. LMAO I just abused some Prince lyrics/songs. Please forgive this bastardization of them (“Do Me, Baby” ). I just imagined a story called “Do Me While I Have My Lows.” It’s gonna be pretty ugly and laughable. I haven’t forgotten the horror story either.
I did, a few days back, write some characters for a satire set in a space opera vein. I think it would make a good TV show, so I have to get to working on this soon. This doesn’t mean I forgot about the story I wrote out parts of the plot out last week. I have look at what I typed. So there are things for me to be creative about.
Happy creative endeavors.

Known for his catchy tunes and outstanding production skills, CID has created some of the biggest remixes known in house music. Check out five of our favorite CID remixes below:
“Audio” – LSD feat. Sia, Diplo, Labrinth (CID Remix)
A GRAMMY Award-winning remix. Literally, this remix won CID his first-ever solo GRAMMY in 2019. Technically, CID’s first GRAMMY was back in 2014 as a non-credited co-producer alongside Cedric Gervais for their remix of Lana Del Rey’s track “Summertime Sadness”. This remix of “Audio” by LSD is absolutely electrifying and cinematic.
“Love On Me” – Galantis & Hook N Sling (CID Remix)
In this house, we love future house. CID blows the beat up on this one! Imaginative and magical, this upbeat tune is a staple you’re bound to hear at any major festival.
“Alone” – Halsey feat. Big Sean & Stefflon Don (CID Remix)
This remix reminds you that life is all about having fun. A massive CID banger! CID knows exactly how to create an irresistible beat that causes an infectious kind of smile.
“Truth Hurts” – Lizzo (CID Remix)
CID turned this track up with an unexpected speed change. The kind of track that throws you for a loop, in the best way. This bass house remix showcases CID’s creativity and ability to create certified club-ready tracks in a New York minute.
“Close To Me” – Ellie Goulding & Diplo feat. Swae Lee (CID Remix)
Slowing down the tempo of this classic, CID helps brings back those feelings of summer festival nostalgia paired perfectly with Ellie Goulding’s flawless vocals. The addition of some simple hi-hats and dynamic drops give this track a fun spin. One of CID’s best and more underrated remixes.
Get ready to hear more of CID and his certified club-ready tracks this Saturday, April 16 at Sunbar in Tempe! Grab your tickets here.

According to gambling911.com, Washington, D.C., has become the first jurisdiction in the United States to legalize online gambling.
“The Associated Press reported late Tuesday that permitting online gambling was part of a 2011 budget and a 30-day period for Congress to object expired last week, said D.C. Council, member Michael A. Brown, who authored the provision.”
“There was really no clear law that said we could not do this,” Brown said last week.
“Bets would have to be placed within the District of Columbia.”
“Unlike previous state measures such as those recommended in New Jersey, which failed to pass legislation last month, those betting from Washington, DC would not be required to actually live there.”
“In addition to online poker, Washington, DC could also offer other forms of Web gambling including casino games and sports betting.”
“Officials estimate between $13 million to $14 million to come into the District through fiscal year 2014 as a result of the new industry.”

For gambling domain name owners legalization of online casino and poker in the US would be HUGE.

With Ford eliminating the manufacturing of the Crown Victoria, the City of Columbus, Ohio’s Police Department began advocating for SUV’s (namely, the Ford Police Interceptor Utility) as a replacement to their primary policing vehicle. Before the elimination of the Crown Victoria, SUV’s were not purchasable by anyone within the Columbus Police Department, due to an overwhelming concern for fuel-efficiency. After this change, the need for larger vehicles became apparent, and the decision to switch to the Interceptor Utility made.
Being a No. 1 Green Fleet in 2011 and now realizing the need for larger SUV’s, Columbus Police Department began installing the GRIP Idle Management System on 90 of its police cruisers.
With the GRIP System controlling his fleet’s engine idling, Fleet Administrator Kelly Reagan expects a full return on the initial investment in less than a year. Better yet, with projected annual fuel cost savings of approximately $3500 per vehicle, and the GRIP System installed on all 339 police cruisers, the estimated yearly savings equate to $1.2 million across the entire Columbus Police Department fleet.
These significant savings do not factor in some of the most important and crucial elements that the GRIP Idle Management System offers, which includes:
“We anticipate that once a patrol unit exceeds its useful life using the anti-idle technology, that we will transfer the technology to the new replacement patrol vehicle. GRIP offers a reconditioning program that allows the fleet division to reuse the technology on new replacement units for about one-third the cost of a new system,” Reagan said.
The GRIP Idle Management System has been happily adopted and advocated by the Columbus Police Department’s officers, noting the improvement in their carbon footprint, increase in safety and security, and the communal effort to drastically reduce departmental costs.
“The addition of the anti-idle technology will maintain essential systems on the vehicle while, all the time saving fuel for the division and keeping our officers safe. We think it is important to demonstrate our desire to be efficient with our fleet and respectful of the money it takes to operate our fleet of vehicles.” says Police Chief, Kim Jacobs.
For more information regarding the Columbus Police Department’s idle-reduction cost savings, check out this Government Fleet article.

Itanagar: Arunachal Pradesh Governor (Retd) Gen J J Singh has declared open the first edition of Tawang Festival at this Buddhist Monastery town yesterday with the chant of religious hymns.
Congratulating the people of Tawang, the Governor wished that the five-day tourism festival will take Tawang a notch higher in the tourism map of the world.
He expressed happiness that Tawang has become the face of Arunachal Pradesh in the last couple of years and appreciated the natives for it, official sources said here today.
The Governor was, however, skeptical about the condition of roads that lead to Tawang. He urged the BRO authorities to take the matter seriously.
Chief Minister Nabam Tuki along with hundreds, including Tourism Minister Pema Khandu, Water Resource Development Minister Newlai Tingkhatra, Urban Development and Town Planning Minister, Rajesh Tacho and other dignitaries were present during the function.
In his address, Chief Minister Nabam Tuki, who is also the Chief Patron of the festival, paid tributes to former Chief Minister, Late Dorjee Khandu.
He said because of Late Khandu’s personal intervention Tawang today is on the world tourism map.
Expressing his gratitude to the former CM, Mr Tuki assured the people that Late Khandu’s dream of a developed Arunachal will not be left aloof, sources said. ‘My government will leave no stone unturned to fulfill the dreams of the great visionary,’ he said.
Highlighting several initiatives of the government for welfare of the people, Mr Tuki informed that top priority is being given to promote, preserve and document the rich cultural heritage of Arunachal Pradesh through a new scheme called ‘Living Heritage’ and encourage local artists, artisans and exponents of traditional art forms. Tuki, who had in the morning visited the land-slide site of the Tawang Monastery, said the government will do everything possible to save the age-old monastery which is the center of Buddhist teachings for the region.
‘I have constituted a high level committee under principal secretary Yeshi Tsering that will submit a technical report for consideration by the government. We will have to save the Monastery from the danger of landslides,’ he said.
As pointed by the Governor, the chief minister also expressed concern over the condition of roads. In fact, he had traveled by road from Dirang to Tawang to get a firsthand experience of the problem.
Tuki said it was a genuine concern and assured the people that he will take up the matter on an urgent note with the Border Road Organization. He even called a meeting today of the authorities to discuss the issue in presence of the Governor, sources added. (UNI)

Jinguashi (Chinkuashih; Chinese: 金瓜石; pinyin: Jīnguāshí; Wade–Giles: Chin1-kua1-shih2; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Kim-koe-chio̍h) is a town in Ruifang District, New Taipei City, Taiwan, notable for its historic gold and copper mines. It is also known as Kinkaseki in Japanese and was under Taihoku Prefecture during Japanese rule. From 1942–1945, during the final years of World War II, it was used by the Japanese as a prisoner-of-war camp.
Although the minerals have since been depleted, the town still attracts many visitors to its Gold Ecological Park, which opened in October 2004. Jinguashi was named a potential World Heritage site in 2002.

The father of one of the choirboys sexually assaulted by Cardinal George Pell has said he will sue Pell and the church after the death of his son following an accidental overdose.
Pell has been convicted of sexually abusing two boys in 1996 and 1997, when they were 13 and members of the St Patrick’s Cathedral choir. Pell, who was the archbishop of Melbourne at the time, was convicted on the evidence of one of the victims, now 35.
The man, who cannot be named, released a statement on Tuesday saying he had experienced “shame, loneliness, depression and struggle” as a result of the abuse.
“At some point we realise that we trusted someone we should have feared and we fear those genuine relationships that we should trust.”
Lawyers representing the father of the other victim said the guilty conviction had compelled him to speak out. He believes his son suffered post-traumatic stress disorder because he had been abused.

Choice is a fundamental American value that often lies at the center of heated political discussions. For example, disputes about the Affordable Healthcare Act have hinged on whether buying health insurance should be a personal choice. Recent research suggests that thinking about our lives in terms choices may reduce our support for public policies that promote greater equality in society. By emphasizing free will over the situational factors that shape people’s life experiences, thinking about choice may lead us to view inequality as less bothersome.
For example, thinking about choices may lead us to feel less concerned about the growing gap between the wealthy and the poor. In a recent paper published in Psychological Science, Krishna Savani of the National University of Singapore Business School and Aneeta Rattan of Stanford University asked some of their participants to list five things they did during the previous day at various time points. Other participants were asked to list five “choices” instead of things. Then, all participants were asked how disturbed they were by 10 facts regarding wealth inequality, such as “The richest 20% of people in the United States own 85% of all wealth in this country.” Those participants who had thought about their actions in terms of choices were less likely to feel alarmed. Choice may lead us to focus on how people’s freely chosen actions lead to either poverty or wealth, making wealth inequality seem like a reasonable result rather than a public problem that needs to be solved.
Although political orientation is related to the degree to which people support policies designed to promote equality, Savani and Rattan found that the idea of choice influenced the opinions of both liberals and conservatives. In another experiment, they had participants watch a short video of a person doing mundane activities in an apartment, such as opening mail or reading a magazine. Some participants were asked to press a button whenever they saw the person in the video touch an object. Other participants were asked to press the button whenever they perceived that the person in the video was making a choice. Later all participants were asked to read about public policies designed to redistribute educational resources in a community in order to make things more equal between the wealthy and the poor. Those who had been prompted to think about choices, regardless of their own political leanings, expressed less support for the equalizing policies.
The results from these studies may have something to do with how closely Americans associate choice with freedom. When Americans are made to think about choice, they may shift their attitudes in favor of policies that promote individual freedom rather than restrict it. In 2011 Savani and his colleagues published a set of studies demonstrating that thinking about choice decreases people’s support for laws that limit individual freedoms, such as banning violent video games or levying environmental taxes on fuel-inefficient cars. Thinking about choice also led people to feel more positively towards laws that uphold individual freedoms, such as laws legalizing marijuana.
Unfortunately, they found that thinking about choice also had a downside: it led people to feel less empathy towards others who have experienced negative life events. For example, participants who had thought about choices, were more likely to blame people who had experienced car accidents, physical abuse, or a loss of their home due to a building collapse.
Since choice and freedom are emphasized to a greater degree in Western countries, Savani and his colleagues wanted to know whether their results would hold up in a different culture. They designed a study where American or Indian participants were asked to either choose small items for themselves (e.g. a pen or keychain) or simply describe items that somebody else already chose. Then, all participants were shown a picture of an African child who was described as desperately poor and facing starvation. They were asked how much money they would be willing to donate to the child and how upset they were by the child’s situation.
For Americans, the act of making a simple choice caused them to feel less upset about the starving child’s plight. For Indians, making this choice had no effect on how they felt towards the child. Their level of distress about the child was the same, regardless of whether they had been asked to make a choice. Making choices, even trivial ones, may symbolize something important to Americans but not to Indians. For Americans, the idea of choice may be more strongly linked to ideals such as independence from societal constraints. Even a minor focus on small choices can activate these ideals, leading Americans to overemphasize the role that choice has in shaping our life outcomes. The potential downside is that for Americans, thinking about life in terms of choices may decrease our interest in helping others. When viewed through the lens of choice, people’s misfortunes are seen as caused by the actions they’ve taken rather than situations they have encountered. This may seem to bode poorly for solving social problems that require cooperation. However, Savani and his colleagues point out that it may be possible to use the effects of choice to our own advantage. If cooperation and helpfulness are framed as expressions of choice and free will, Americans may become even more charitable than others.

It was crowded, hot and kind of smelly the day I went to Portobello Road Market but somehow I still loved every minute of it. Walking down the famous market you encounter food stands, clothes stands, souvenir stands, many tourists but also quite a few locals filling the skinny, two mile long street.
The area is quaint and has a lot of character as shown through the homes and buildings that line the streets. The homes are in numerous bright colors, including orange, purple, and blue and somehow it is not the least bit tacky as purple houses might be in the states. The brightly colored homes match the attitudes of the people on the street of Portobello Road in the area known as Notting Hill.
Notting Hill was made even more famous in the 90's by American, Julia Roberts. Roberts starred with Hugh Grant in "Notting Hill". Grant, in the movie had a bright blue door on the famous Portobello Road.
Walking through the street people also played music and sang and my group actually stopped and talked with one upcoming artist, Robbie Boyd, who said he played in the Notting Hill area every Saturday. We even made time to go back and see him play once more in the area.
Portobello Road Market is an experience that is definitely worth while, while in London.

Your favorite coffee house drink and breakfast treat have now become one amazing thing. These coffee and cream cinnamon buns are a must try for brunch or even as a fun dessert.
These cinnamon rolls are super tender, really ooey gooey and beyond delicious. Plus they have coffee baked right inside making them an extra special treat.
Are you ready for these? No really, make sure you are in your comfy pants and get ready for what I am about to throw your way. They are good. I mean, really good.
Coffee and cream cinnamon buns are like your expensive coffee house favorite and an ooey gooey cinnamon bun got together for a night of craziness and this is what resulted.
Sometimes you just have to have that hit of coffee. I can’t start a day without a cup of joe, so when I got an itch to make something coffee flavored I knew I had better scratch it!
And that is when it hit me!
If you can do a cinnamon bun latte, why couldn’t you do it the other way around?
It seemed like it would be easy enough to infuse some coffee flavor into my favorite soft cinnamon roll recipe I loved so much.
So I went to the pantry and pulled out my trusty jar of instant coffee. I never thought I would use it nearly as frequently as I do.
I bought it for some recipe I really wanted to try and put it in the pantry where I thought it would linger until it looked old and dusty only to be thrown away. Boy was I ever wrong. I find myself putting it in almost any recipe that calls for chocolate.
That jar sees the light of day more than I ever gave it credit for and brings such a nice depth to so many fun chocolate recipes? Don’t believe me? It’s in probably darn near a third of my chocolate recipes!
They smelled so good as they baked. Just like your favorite coffee shop bakery.
The coffee in the dough is subtle, but the filling gave it that added punch without being too much. A non-coffee lover could still enjoy it but those of us who live by coffee would certainly love them more.
They were soft, just sweet enough and had that added layer of flavor from the coffee. You are going to have to give them a try to see for yourself!
Why is there potato in the dough?
Potato starches are like adding little sponges to bread dough. They attract water and hold onto it more than the starch found in flour.
That makes your finished cinnamon rolls extra moist and delicious. The centers have the super soft texture that makes them so beyond good.
Yeast loves that potato starch as well. So using some of the water from boiling the potato to proof the yeast gets it really bubbly and happy.
The extra moisture in the dough also keeps the cinnamon rolls from getting dry and stale as fast. They are good for several days before they start to show their age.
Storing cinnamon rolls
Like most bread products, cinnamon rolls are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature. They can be stored that way for a few days.
For longer storage, cinnamon rolls can be frozen for up to three months. It is easiest to freeze them separately so you can just grab as many as you need.
A few seconds in the microwave is all it takes to make them fresh and delicious again. They will taste fabulous.
Breads do not store well in the refrigerator. The refrigerator dries out baked goods and makes them go stale more quickly.
More great cinnamon roll recipes
A giant skillet sized cinnamon roll is a perfect way to serve breakfast or brunch. Cut a small sliver or a big slice and you still get all of the layers in whatever serving size you choose.
A cinnamon roll wreath is another fun way to serve cinnamon rolls. You could even make them coffee flavored as well!
Check out the full collection of cinnamon roll recipes for more tasty ideas.

Coffee and Cream Cinnamon Buns
- ½ cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1½ Tablespoons instant coffee granules
- 3 Tablespoons butter softened
- 1 pinch salt
- 1½ Tablespoons butter softened
- 1⅓ cup powdered sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
- 3 Tablespoons heavy cream
- Start by getting your potatoes ready. I used one large potato. Peel it, cut it into cubes and boil it until it is soft. Pour 1/4 cup of that water into a small bowl or measuring cup to proof the yeast. Drain the rest of the water and return the potato cubes to the saucepan. Mash until smooth.1 cup plain mashed potatoes
- Meanwhile dissolve the coffee granules in the milk and set aside.1 cup milk, 1 Tablespoon instant coffee granules
- Once water is about 110°F, add the tablespoon of sugar and the yeast. Set aside.2½ teaspoons active dry yeast
- Add the coffee milk, butter, salt and 1/2 cup of sugar to the potatoes. Stir and warm over low heat until warmed through.4 Tablespoons butter, ½ teaspoon salt
- Butter a large mixing bowl and set aside.
- Place the warm potato mixture in the bowl of your mixer. Stir in the egg, vanilla, and yeast mixture.1 egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Slowly add in the flour. You want to stop adding flour while the dough is still sticky, but it should at least come together into a dough. With the dough hook attachment, allow your mixer to “knead” the dough for about 5 minutes. Feel free to add a bit more flour if needed, but you don’t want to add any more than you have to. If you notice my picture of my dough hook, it was still a pretty loose dough when I was done.4 cups all purpose flour
- Turn the dough into the buttered bowl, be sure to scrape all that goodness off of the mixer bowl and hook. Cover and allow to rise to at least double its size, about an hour or an hour and a half.
- Punch down the dough and give it a couple of quick kneads to make sure it is deflated.
- Place on a lightly floured surface. Let rest for about 10 minutes, then roll into a 18-inch square.
- Butter a 10x15x1-inch jelly roll pan. (Two 9×13 pans or or half sheet pan would work as well.)
- In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, cinnamon, coffee, butter and salt. Distribute over the dough.½ cup light brown sugar, 1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon, 1½ Tablespoons instant coffee granules, 3 Tablespoons butter, 1 pinch salt
- Roll dough into a log and cut into 12 equal pieces. Place on buttered baking dish. Cover loosely with a towel and let rise for another hour.
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Bake for 20 minutes, rotating the pan half way through. The tops should be a light golden brown.
- Let sit for about 5 minutes, then put together the glaze.
- In a small bowl, use your hand mixer to beat together the butter, coffee, powdered sugar, salt, vanilla and cream until smooth. You want it to be a thick consistency, barely thin enough to pour.1½ Tablespoons butter, 1⅓ cup powdered sugar, 1 pinch salt, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules, 3 Tablespoons heavy cream
- Drizzle glaze all over warm cinnamon rolls and spread a bit if necessary, then let cool.

Policy Options to Stabilize Food Supplies: A Case Study of Southern Africa
by Michael Trueblood, Shahla Shapouri, and Shida Henneberry
Agriculture Information Bulletin No. (AIB-764) 24 pp, June 2001
For the southern Africa region, both a grain stocking program and an import insurance program would have reduced food supply variability more than historical food aid during 1970-95. The stocking program and the import insurance program would have been less expensive than food aid from a donor point of view. These options may be attractive policy alternatives for donors and countries in other regions, given the decline in food aid budgets in recent years and projections of rising global food gaps.
