How Long Does It Take to Settle a Personal Injury Claim?
In the big picture, it is almost-always to the plaintiff’s advantage to wait patiently for a settlement, either negotiated higher with a lawyer’s help or won through courtroom litigation. If you absolutely cannot put compensation off any longer, talk to your attorney about what you can expect if you were to offer to settle right now. Just don’t be surprised if it is a fraction of what you deserve.
Statute of limitations in a Car Accident Case
In Texas, all parties involved in an automobile accident, whether it be a driver, passenger, or pedestrian, have two years to file a claim. This time limit begins on the date an accident occurred and exists for virtually all car accident cases, no matter how extensive the damage.
How to Determine the Full Value of Your Car Accident Case
Determining the actual value of your car accident claim, and therefore how much you should ask for in return from the liable party’s insurance company, is a straightforward and simultaneously complicated process. It can be simple in terms of vehicular damage. If you have been physically injured as a result of the car accident, you will need to know the cost of your own recovery, which is far easier said than done. Read more here about how professionals determine your claim value.
Texas Distracted Driving Laws and Regulations
In addition to being illegal, using a smartphone while driving places a great deal of liability on the shoulders of the driver should a car accident occur. The trouble is figuring out if cellphone use was actually happening right at the moment of collision. Learn more here about Texas distracted driving laws and liability after an accident.
Steps to Take After a Car Accident
To help you get through the after effects of a car accident, there are a series of steps and hints you should always take and remember, regardless of the details of the incident.
Physical Injuries Commonly Suffered in a Car Accident
But the reality is that insurance adjusters and the liable party are going to approach your claim with an ample helping of skepticism. One way to strengthen your case and fight for full compensation is to show that your injury is common in car accidents.
Common Causes of Oilfield Accidents
According to the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA), more than 4,000 oilfield workers are injured at work each year, with more than 100 of these cases ending in fatality. Unfortunately, many of these accidents occur as a result of the negligence of another party, such as a drilling company’s failure to provide adequate safety gear or a lack of supervisors on a jobsite.
Leading Causes of Recreational Boat Accidents
According to annual statistics collected by the United States Coast Guard, more than 500 Americans will be in a fatal boating accident each year and thousands more will suffer injuries ranging from slight to severe.
Should You Talk to Insurance Companies After Your Car Accident?
After being in a car accident, you may experience an unfortunate “15 minutes of fame” as all sorts of different people and parties want to talk to you. The other driver needs your information, paramedics will need to make certain you are okay, and the police might even show up to get a rundown on what led up to the collision. But there is one more group that will want to know about your car accident, and they are the one you might have to be the most careful about: insurance companies.
How Everyday Negligence Causes Car Accidents Everyday
But if the leading cause of car accidents is the people controlling the car, every effort to stop their dangerous behavior is an uphill battle. All the regulations and training in the world cannot guarantee that someone will put down their cellphones and focus on driving. Read more here about the latest information on the causes of car accidents, and about what to do if you are injured in one.

“Marvel’s The Defenders” was a Color-Coded Hell to Watch
In: Media, Small Screen
A Special Report by Agent Parker
Well, it’s been a week, and I’ve finally gotten through all of “Marvel’s The Defenders.” I’ll wait while you finish silently judging me. Done now? Then let’s continue. In the week since then, something has continually bothered me.
It’s not that the Netflix exclusive that finally brought together Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist was difficult to watch. (You can save your Internet hivemind hatred of Finn Jones for another day). It’s not even that it was difficult to find the time to watch it. There’s enough laundry in our house to keep a small army of domesticated husbands busy folding clothes while watching “their stories.”
It’s the fact that everything that I enjoyed aesthetically about the individual series that led to “Defenders” also turned out to be the thing that I hated most about the ensemble show.
Let’s recall, if you will, the commanding yellows of the Harlem that served as the backdrop of “Luke Cage,” the unsettling blues and purples of “Jessica Jones,” the red-tinted hints of danger of “Daredevil,” and the sickly hospital-like greens of “Iron Fist.”
They built a cohesive sense of space for the singular characters. The colors let you know when the heroes are in control, in a fight for their life, or when their alter egos were hidden beneath the surface.
From the very first moments of “The Defenders,” we’re awash in those sickly greens in the underground of Cambodia. We’re rushed to Jessica Jones’s drunken stupor where even Trish is clothed in a blue blazer outside the bar; Seagate Prison, where everything from the cinderblock walls to Foggy Nelson are covered in yellow light; and coffee makers that are accented in red flash inside Matt Murdock’s swanky apartment before his bright red folders rest on a courtroom table otherwise bathed in hues more recognizable to us mere mortals.
The Defenders Color Schemes
This bullshit continues in the same fashion for six out of the eight episodes, with brief moments for our eyes to rest in between.
SPOILERS AHEAD (except for, like, two of those bad guys from The Hand. There’s not a head between them.)
Take Episode 4, “Royal Dragon,” for example. It’s the first real moment where the team comes together outside of the wonderful fight scene at Midland Circle in episode 3 accented by Run The Jewels. Danny Rand flashes some cash securing a temporary hideout in the restaurant presumably of the same name. From that point on, Danny’s cash-colored influence is seen on everyone and everything.
EXCEPT FOR FUCKING MATT MURDOCK, who decides to stand as close as humanly possible to the red neon light in the front restaurant window as if to say to the rest of the team, “LOOK AT ME! I’M FUCKING DAREDEVIL!” Aren’t you supposed to be hiding out, Matt? Weren’t you, just minutes ago, complaining about the fact that you could still hear neon? “Who hears neon?” It’s no wonder you’re discovered by everyone in the room minutes later.
Later, after Jessica’s hissy fit and exit from the restaurant, she and Luke are covered in blue neon lights that wouldn’t exist behind any restaurant. Ever.
I get it! They were different people whose well-known comic book costumes had different colors! Even if you’re the most casual fan of these heroes or just their presence in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, if you’ve reached “The Defenders,” you’ve already seen all of this.
This hand-holding and color-coded coddling, more than anything else, made me feel stupid. It also made me believe that they would never come together as a team because the creatives behind “Defenders” couldn’t do anything more creative than throw lighting gels recklessly across their sets.
The color palettes of the singular series brought us into the character’s worlds, and in some ways made us know and care more about them. Keeping them for so long in such overt ways throughout “Defenders” alienated me from enjoying the team dynamic. If this was to be an ensemble cast, it should have been treated as such.
If you understand the colors of light, you know that combining all of the colors gives you white light. But that clear color palette, the overall tone that should have been present after episode 3 through the end of the season when the team is separated again, is so blisteringly absent outside of anything tied directly to the chaos at Midland Circle that it almost hurts to watch.
Rather than a richly woven tapestry, “The Defenders” comes out looking like a child’s muddied finger painting exercise. For a cinematic universe that rewards its viewers loyalty with Easter eggs and cameos of every kind, this series almost goes out of its way to insult its viewers’ intelligence.
Color me upset.

Thomas More's Utopia
Sunday 23 October, 10.00 - 11.30 , Conservatory Academy in One Day
In Association With:
More’s Utopia, published 500 years ago this year, is a book that has beguiled historians and political theorists over several centuries. Confronting a portrait of an idyllic community that seems to combine republican virtues with totalitarianism, readers have found it difficult, if impossible, to untangle the serious from the satirical. But it is this very complexity, alongside a deep engagement with classical Greek and Roman authors, that makes More’s Utopia such a compelling text. Taken along with the arguably contradictory features of More’s personal life - from his humanist ideals and deep friendship with Erasmus to his involvement in heretic hunting as Lord Chancellor - More’s Utopia is an endlessly intriguing work of political, social and philosophical imagination.

HM Dragon & Fenghuang Ref. 1LCAP.M08A.C110A
The latest limited edition from Arnold & Son combines inspiration from traditional Chinese paper cutting with traditional Haute Horlogerie. This special tribute to the dragon and fenghuang is limited to just five timepieces.
In Chinese mythology the dragon is a divine creature signifying power and good fortune, and is the free spirit of the zodiac. In ancient and modern Chinese culture, the dragon is often depicted along with the fenghuang.
The dragon and fenghuang are indeed considered symbolic of blissful relations between husband and wife, a common yin and yang metaphor. A symbol of high virtue and grace, the fenghuang has multiple positive connotations.
This limited edition was created to celebrate these divine creatures. The dragon and fenghuang are depicted with a technique reinterpreting the principles of the ancestral art of Chinese paper cutting, also named Jianzhi. Instead of paper the motive is created on mother-of-pearl by applying successive layers of lacquer with a miniature pad, executed with exquisite delicacy of touch and featuring fine details that evoke the depth and texture of the dragon and the fenghuang.
Arnold & Son is proud of this singular timepiece, as Fabien Dutriaux explains: "The light reflected from the depths of the white mother-of-pearl dial illuminates the richness of detail in the exquisite motive and eloquently expresses our mastery of the decorative arts." It is no small tribute to the craftsman who created it to say that the image on the dial captures all the finesse in the ancestral Chinese art of paper cutting.
The watch is powered by the A&S1001 movement, which is just 2.70 mm thick and manufactured entirely in-house. Housed in a 40 mm 18-karat rose gold case, it has twin barrels that generate a 90-hour power reserve, guarantee a more constant force and in turn a more constant rate and greater accuracy. All the plates and bridges in the movement are hand-chamfered and decorated - a further indication of the traditional craftsmanship upheld by Arnold & Son.
The HM Dragon and Fenghuang is limited to just 5 timepieces.

Ecuadorian Locals Still Seeking Damages from Chevron for Environmental Damage
Public Radio International
Click the Play button above to listen.
Life is hard for the indigenous groups and subsistence farmers of two provinces in northern Ecuador, and oil is everywhere.
"It smells just like a gas station," said Ecuadorian lawyer Juan Pablo Saenz describing the present condition of the rainforest area.
He represents a group of 30,000 Ecuadorians hoping to force Chevron into fixing ecological problems they blame on Texaco's oil development in the 1960s.
Litigation began in 1993 and has dragged on through appeals, venue changes and many efforts by the oil company to shrug responsibility for the environmental destruction.
"That's probably the hardest part about all this, just the human suffering. Cancer rates are 150 percent higher than one would expect from this sort of environment," Saenz said. "This is made worse because these people have no access to real healthcare."
The Ecuadorian court, in 2011, handing Chevron a $19 billion bill – to be paid to the affected indigenous people. The company called the ruling illegitimate and the trial a fraud. Company officials have refused to pay the damages.
Chevron's attorney in the case argued the damage in the area was the result of abandoned pipelines belonging to PetroEcuador, a state-owned oil company.
"PetroEcuador agreed to and had an obligation under contract and the law to remediate its two-thirds share of any impacted site. They didn't do so for almost two decades," said Jim Craig, Chevron's media advisor. "They operated exclusively for 23 years with what everyone agrees is an abysmal environmental record. So if there's any contamination today in the Amazon of Ecuador, it's the responsibility of PetroEcuador."
Still determined to make the company pay, the Ecuadorian plantiffs have continued to seek out other jurisdictions where Chevron still has active business, including Argentina and Canada. An Argentinian judge originally agreed to honor the Ecuadorian court's ruling, placing an embargo on Chevron Argentina's assests worth approximatley $19 billion. The Argentinian Supreme Court overturned that ruling on June 5, claiming Chevron Argentina is seperate from Chevron Corporation.
Despite the setbacks, the plaintiffs refuse to give up.
"We will be starting new enforcement actions in other jurisdictions," Saenz said. "But what’s coming soon is that hopefully we will be able to start with the remediation of the Ecuadorian Amazon rainforest – and that cannot happen soon enough."

Taboo Broken, Twice! – Fiat Euro! 11/2013
by Martin Vlachynskyon April 2, 2013 August 31, 2017
Follow @INESSinstitute
The crisis was hidden in Cyprus. We broke two different taboos. Moscow-Cyprus: booked out.
During the last months we have been listening to the eurozone leaders repeatedly saying that the crisis is over. Spanish banks rescued, Italian and Spanish bond yields kept low, the Irish returned to the market. Greeks and the Portuguese are still demonstrating, but their governments keep dragging the proposed reforms like apathetic mules under the benevolent eye of the Troika which is granting deadline postponements for compliance with the limits easily. And suddenly – Cyprus.
Cyprus, along with Slovenia, has been in the shadows of the PIIGS problems already for quite few months. Everyone knew that Cyprus would need help, but this would be in comparison to other states so small that it was not exciting. There is a new president in Cyprus after the recent elections, who is much more inclined to take help from the Troika compared to his predecessor. The official signal was an ECB announcement that, as of last Tuesday, it would stop providing liquidity to Cypriot banks through the ELA program, in other words – it will prohibit the Central Bank of Cyprus from printing additional euros. Cypriot banks are depleted due to being bound to Greece and losses coming from the Greek haircut. A traditional rescue event associated with hands shaking and salmon sandwiches could begin.
Cyprus is small, but the Cypriot banking sector is relatively large, seven times larger than the Cypriot GDP. In absolute terms, it is still small. But this also implies that should Cyprus be rescued only by funds from the permanent euro-wall, its public debt would jump far above 100% of GDP. Troika suddenly realised that the rules are to be followed and the ESM rules (though vaguely – article 13 ) say that a loan may be provided only to a country that will be able to service the debt thus increased (at least according to their models). Somebody malicious could say that it is the upcoming German elections in September that has played a far greater role in demanding savers’ contribution to the bailout than the ESM rules. There are around 20 billion euros of savings and other few billion of investments of Russian citizens in Cyprus. The rescue of those by the German money would be, say, unpopular…
Out of the less than 16 billion euros required, Europe prepared a ten-billion pile from the ESM. Cyprus is supposed to get the rest on its own and quickly. Here comes the first surprise. Cypriot government agreed with the Euro group that they will get the money by taking it directly from the savers via a special tax levied on their deposits, even on those deposits that are supposed to be guaranteed by the Cypriot equivalent of Deposit Protection Fund. Although many have whispered about such a possibility for some time already and the exodus of a few billion euros of deposits in February showed that some took this idea very seriously, to most of the world this came as a shock. Politicians and their friends quickly managed to swipe their money abroad already a few days before and people began to besiege ATMs in an attempt to save part of their money from taxation. Flights from Moscow to Cyprus were sold out in a while.
The tax rate is not very high – many Slovak self-employed or contract workers will lose much more due to the higher taxes effective as of the beginning of this year. But the thing making the Cypriot case different is that one of the fundamental taboos of the crisis was broken. Thou shall not touch savers in the banks!
The second taboo fell two days later when the Cypriot Government did not approve the proposal they agreed on previously. It was the first time a country on the brink of a bankruptcy said NO. Troika and the whole eurozone were left standing with their mouths wide opened.
Cypriot banks are closed, residents can still withdraw 800 euros a day from the regularly re-stocked ATMs, but all business transactions, and with them the whole economy, just froze. ECB is threatening to stop ELA from Monday on, but this time for real, they say. Pinky swears!
New solutions are being proposed on the spot. These include seizure of pension savings and social funds, exchanging deposits for Cyprus and Gas bonds, selling the rights for future natural gas production, which was by the way only discovered recently. The hot candidates are: taxing deposits in excess of a certain amount, or so-called Icelandic way – taxing foreign savers.
Some are raising their hopes with Russia, a country that they have had traditionally close relationship with (40% of foreign direct investments to Russia comes from Cyprus, or better said from Cyprus based Russian firms), and that saved the country once already in 2011 with a €2.5 billion loan. But Russians currently only have a single concern – get their money out of the country rather than send there even more. They would also require solid collateral for the loan. It is, however, highly questionable whether these pigs in a poke named gas resources or a naval base in the Mediterranean are sufficient attraction for so much money.
Whatever turns out to be the result, Cyprus is only a small island in the end. We sent 240 billion euros to Greece, pledged 100 billion euros to Spanish banks. Regarding Cyprus, we are only talking about a handsome sum of 10-16 billion. The important point here, however, is how the outcome will affect the PIIGS. If Cyprus managed to push the ECB and the rest of the Troika to a more favourable package, other countries will be motivated to break the rules even more than they did before. On the other hand, if the measures affect savings in banks (and in this case it does not matter whether all savings or only the large ones), this can lead to even more capital outflows from the periphery than in the past and force the local banks to close down.
These are no longer endless negotiations under Acropolis, or a constant subterfuge and rejecting help in Madrid. Cyprus has been frozen and the solution must come within a few days. Eurocrisis is not over, instead, it came to a new level. We can still continue to buy time as usual and simply pour money into the country via various channels, but a new uncertainty in the euro area is already growing.
Cyprus filled almost all space in this week’s issue. Anyway, let us reveal some news from other parts of Europe. Firstly, due to the Dexia bank rescue, Belgium will exceed the 3% deficit constraint and become another candidate for the mythical fine no one has ever seen. Secondly, one of the main French fighters against tax havens, the budget minister Jerome Cahuzac, resigned because he is being investigated in connection with a bank account in Switzerland. Additionally, after a fall due to the one-off transfer to the newly created “bad bank”, the portion of bad loans in Spanish banks started growing perilously again. And for the very end: Francis became the second largest employer in the U.S.
We wish you a very nice week!

A symbolic network-based nonlinear theory for dynamical systems observability
Scientific Reports, 8, 3785, 2018.
Scientific Report 2018 (with few corrections)
When the state of the whole reaction network can be inferred by just measuring the dynamics of a limited set of nodes the system is said to be fully observable. However, as the number of all possible combinations of measured variables and time derivatives spanning the reconstructed state of the system exponentially increases with its dimension, the observability becomes a computationally prohibitive task. Our approach consists in computing the observability coefficients from a symbolic Jacobian matrix whose elements encode the linear, nonlinear polynomial or rational nature of the interaction among the variables. The novelty we introduce in this paper, required for treating large-dimensional systems, is to identify from the symbolic Jacobian matrix the minimal set of variables (together with their time derivatives) candidate to be measured for completing the state space reconstruction. Then symbolic observability coefficients are computed from the symbolic observability matrix. Our results are in agreement with the analytical computations, evidencing the correctness of our approach. Its application to efficiently exploring the dynamics of real world complex systems such as power grids, socioeconomic networks or biological networks is quite promising.

Topological characterization versus synchronization for assessing (or not) dynamical equivalence
Chaos, 28, 045107, 2018. Online
Model validation from experimental data is an important and not trivial topic which is too often reduced to a simple visual inspection of the state portrait spanned by the variables of the system. Synchronization was suggested as a possible technique for model validation. By means of a topological analysis, we revisited this concept with the help of an abstract chemical reaction system and data from two electrodissolution experiments conducted by Jack Hudson’s group. The fact that it was possible to synchronize topologically different global models led us to conclude that synchronization is not a recommendable technique for model validation. A short historical preamble evokes Jack Hudson’s early career in interaction with Otto E. Rössler.

A nonlinear graph-based theory for dynamical network observability
Physical Review E, 98, 020303(R), 2018. Online
A faithful description of the state of a complex dynamical network would require, in principle, the measurement of all its d variables, an infeasible task for high dimensional systems due to practical limitations. However the network dynamics might be observable from a reduced set of measured variables but how to reliably identify the minimum set of variables providing full observability still remains an unsolved problem. In order to tackle this issue from the Jacobian matrix of the governing equations, we construct a pruned fluence graph in which the nodes are the state variables and the links represent only the linear dynamical interdependences after having ignored the nonlinear ones. From this graph, we identify the largest connected subgraphs with no outgoing links in which every node can be reached from any other node in the subgraph. In each one of them, at least one node must be measured to correctly monitor the state of the system in a d-dimensional reconstructed space. Our procedure is here tested by investigating large-dimensional reaction networks. Our results are validated by comparing them with the determinant of the observability matrix which provides a rigorous assessment of the system’s observability.

Structural, Dynamical and Symbolic Observability : From Dynamical Systems to Networks
PLoS ONE, 13 (10), e0206180, 2018. On line
Abstract Classical definitions of observability classify a system as either being observable or not. Observability has been recognized as an important feature to study complex networks, and as for dynamical systems the focus has been on determining conditions for a network to be observable. About twenty years ago continuous measures of observability for nonlinear dynamical systems started to be used. In this paper various aspects of observability that are established for dynamical systems will be investigated in the context of networks. In particular it will be discussed in which ways simple networks can be ranked in terms of observability using continuous measures of such a property. Also it is pointed out that the analysis of the network topology is typically not sufficient for observability purposes, since both the dynamics and the coupling of such nodes play a vital role. Some of the main ideas are illustrated by means of numerical simulations.

Parameter identification of a model for prostate cancer treated by intermittent therapy,
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 461, 117-132, 2019. Online 5 October 2018
Adenocarcinoma is the most frequent cancer affecting the prostate walnut-size gland in the male reproductive system. Such cancer may have a very slow progression or may be associated with a “dark prognosis” when tumor cells are spreading very quickly. Prostate cancers have the particular properties to be marked by the level of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in blood which allows to follow its evolution. At least in its first phase, prostate adenocarcinoma is most often hormone-dependent and, consequently, hormone therapy is a possible treatment. Since few years, hormone therapy started to be provided intermittently for improving patient’s quality of life. Today, durations of on- and off-treatment periods are still chosen empirically, most likely explaining why there is no clear benefit from the survival point of view. We therefore developed a model for describing the interaction between the tumor environment, the PSA produced by hormone-dependent and hormone-independent tumor cells, respectively, and the level of androgens. Model parameters were identified using a genetic algorithm applied to the PSA time series measured in a few patients who initially received prostatectomy and were then treated by intermittent hormone therapy (LHRH analogs and anti-androgen). The measured PSA time series is quite correctly reproduced by free runs over the whole follow-up. Model parameter values allow for distinguishing different types of patient (age and Gleason score) meaning that the model can be individualized. We thus showed that the long-term evolution of the cancer can be affected by durations of on- and off-treatment periods.

Application and benefits of web-mediated symptom reporting for patients undergoing immunotherapy : A clinical example
Case Report in Oncology, 11, 763-768, 2018. Online
Two randomized studies of symptom monitoring during chemotherapy or during second line treatment and follow-up via web-based patient-reported outcomes (PROs) was previously demonstrated to lengthen survival. We are presenting here a patient with advanced and re-current lung cancer who was followed for 4 years by PROs for relapse and adverse events detection. We report how the web-mediated follow-up helped to detect dangerous pulmonary embolism, relapse and pseudo-progression to immunotherapy by self-reported symptom tracking and specific algorithms triggering notifications to medical team, allowing early man-agement of events. We particularly describe how a discordance between objective clinical im-provement under immunotherapy assessed by the application allowed to detect pseudo-pro-gression on imaging and allowed maintenance of the treatment during more than 1-year, alt-hough imaging report could have led to stop an effective therapy. The progression observed in the routine imaging was indeed in clear contradiction with improvements in patient’s global status as assessed by the reduced PRO-score computed from patient self-reported symptoms. The ability of e-health tools based on symptoms reporting for tumor response assessment should be assessed in trials to help physician in decision of stopping or continuing therapy.

Using global modeling to unveil hidden couplings in small network motifs
AbstractOne of the main tasks in network theory is to infer relations among interacting elements. We propose global modeling as a tool to detect links between nodes and their nature. Various situations using small network motifs are investigated under the assumption that the variable to be measured at each node provides full observability when isolated. Such a choice ensures no intrinsic difficulties for getting a global model in the coupled situation. As a first step toward unveiling the coupling function in larger network motifs, we consider three different scenarios involving Rössler systems diffusively coupled, in a couple or embedded in a network, or parametrically forced. We show that the global modeling is able to determine not only the existence of an interaction but also its functional form, to retrieve the dynamics of the whole system, and to extract the equations governing the single node dynamics as if it was isolated.

Russian warship ‘carrying £100 billion gold’ found off South Korea
Loretta Pittman
The warship was scuttled off the island of Ulleungdo in 1905 to stop it falling into Japanese hands following the battle of Tsushima during the Russo-Japanese War.
Mr Lim Dong Hoon, one of the company's three South Korean directors, said when reached on his mobile phone that he had no information on the shipwreck or the company's activities, and declined to comment further.
Shinil Group believes there could be as much as 200 tons of gold on board the ship, which would be worth around $133.4billion.
Whenever private treasure-hunting companies succeed and really come across boxes filled with gold or silver, there is a high likelihood that the finding will draw lawsuits by countries or private stakeholders who claim they deserve a share.
Shinil Group, which lists a Singapore address on its website, said on Tuesday it had discovered the wreck of the Dmitrii Donskoi, a Russian armoured cruiser built in the 1880s and sunk in 1905 after battling Japanese warships.
A South Korean team of experts have struck gold!
Shinil is an unlisted company founded on June 1, meaning investors can not buy shares, though its president recently agreed to acquire shares in a local company, Jeil Steel.
More than a century's worth of undersea growth crusted much of the vessel, but the explorers identified it as the Dmitrii Donskoi when they spotted the name spelled out in Cyrillic characters on the stern, the Morning Post reported.
More news: UNC players face discipline for athletic gear sales
"Concerning the treasure ship salvage project, investors' discretion is recommended as there are risks of them suffering great losses if they rely on rumours", South Korea's Financial Supervisory Service said in a statement. This includes plans for a museum dedicated to the ship.
South Korean law aimed at preserving national territory and property requires the company to deposit 10% of the estimated value of the shipwreck before any salvage operation can begin.
The company claiming to have found the buried treasure is reported to have been established about 50 days ago.
Despite longstanding rumors about the ship's precious cargo, Russian researchers have said it is unlikely that the Donskoi ever carried tons of gold into battle.
Even if the ship is hoisted and treasures are found, their ownership could be disputed.
But South Korean officials are warning investors (who may be looking to pour money into potential stocks in relation to the company), to be leary, as such claims aren't new.
Companies from China, Canada and the United Kingdom are all helping the South Korean team raise the wreck, which will start in October.
And with the shipwreck located about one mile off a South Korean island, that's likely to be the case.

Home / Articles / News / Around the Nation / Proposed Compact Offers Online Ed Common Market
By JUSTIN POPE, AP Education Writer /
2013 April 29 - 12:00 am
Proposed Compact Offers Online Ed Common Market
A proposed compact among the states unveiled by educational organizations and state officials would create a kind of common market for online education and make it easier for institutions to enroll students anywhere in the country.
The proposal would also set some uniform consumer protections, which could give students in some states more recourse to complain to regulators, though it could weaken state oversight in places that already have strict rules.
Nearly 7 million U.S. students are currently accessing college courses online, but the regulations that authorize the universities and companies that provide those courses to operate vary from state to state. Many date to the pre-Internet era when colleges operated only in the state where they maintained a physical presence.
That confusion has somewhat hampered the spread of online options for students. While most for-profit and large non-profit online providers have invested the time and money — in some cases millions of dollars — to get approval to enroll students in all 50 states, others have turned away students from states like Arkansas, Minnesota and Massachusetts where the barriers to gaining approval to operate are higher. The system has also sowed confusion over such issues as what happens if students move to a state where the institution isn’t approved.
Another cost to the patchwork has been confusion over jurisdiction when students want to complain to regulators about a program based in another state. Currently, many states don’t have a way for students to complain about distance education, said Peter McPherson, president of the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities, one of several organizations that developed the proposal.
The proposed compact — a kind of treaty among the states —will require voluntary buy-in from all the states, which in some cases will require legislation. Some states that imposed tighter requirements may prove reluctant to join. But organizers said the agreement represented extensive work with input from all constituencies, and they were hopeful that representatives of 47 states meeting in Indianapolis would start taking steps to implement it back home.
“We don’t have any indication of states that say, ‘I’m all against this, I’m not interested,’” said Paul Lingenfelter, president of SHEEO, a group of state higher education officers. “But in the end they’ll make their own decision.”
The plan calls for something akin to what states do with driver’s licenses — agreeing to recognize credentials issued by other states. Georgia, for instance, would agree to allow a California-based online education provider to enroll Georgia students so long as the institution was authorized by California.
The most important novelty in the compact is that regulators in, say, California would agree to address complaints brought by students elsewhere against California-based institutions. If they failed to do so, they could be expelled from the compact.
The compact would also regularize what it takes to get approval to operate in any state. The proposal borrows, for state licensing purposes, requirements by accreditors and the federal government for quality assurance and financial stability that institutions must already meet to receive federal aid. For instance, to get federal aid, institutions must disclose policies about things such as costs and refunds. Now failure to meet those and other requirements could cost institutions not just access to federal dollars, but a license from their home state to operate at all.
In the states that have provided little oversight of distance learning, that threat could amount to a new and tougher layer of state-level accountability. But states that have imposed more stringent requirements on institutions may have to loosen their grip, said Michael Goldstein, an attorney in Washington who specializes in higher education.
“This is a minimalist approach,” Goldstein said. The education groups that have pushed the proposal are “not looking to increase regulatory burden. To the contrary.”
George Roedler, who oversees registration and licensing for the Office of Higher Education in Minnesota — a state considered to have strict requirements — said his office was monitoring this and other proposals.
“We’re interested in it, but we have to see what the final form is,” he said. “Ultimately, it’s the legislature that will make the call.”
Asked if he was worried Minnesota might have to accept lower licensing standards, Roedler said, “Obviously, that’s always a concern.”
Richard Garrett, vice president and principal analyst at Eduventures, a research and consulting firm, said students have still had plenty of online options, so while they could have more if the compact goes into effect, the effect would not be dramatic. But “hopefully this will force the states to arrive at a happy medium,” he said, modernizing outdated regulations but “forcing states with a very light touch to come up to standard.”
The compact would not affect international students taking courses from U.S. providers, nor would it affect the popular Massive Open Online Courses, or MOOCs, offered by elite universities through platforms like edX, Coursera and Udacity. Those platforms aren’t accredited themselves, and the courses generally aren’t taken for credit. They’re also free to the public, so the consumer protection rules wouldn’t apply, Lingenfelter said.

Cedar Park Historical Marker
The pioneers who settled in Williamson County were rugged, courageous, and enterprising, as was Harriet (Hattie) Standefer’s family, who made the perilous trek from Alabama. Later Hattie married George W. Cluck, an aspiring cattle baron. Interestingly, the Clucks were some of the first to ride the famous Chisholm Trail. Legend has it that Hattie was the first white woman to go up the trail and that was also known as “the Queen of the Chisholm Trail.” While raising a family, the Clucks operated many businesses and, as such, were the primary colonizers of what is now Cedar Park. In the end, the Clucks forged a new community that embodies their same ambitious spirit and generosity.
The marker is located in front of the Cedar Park Public Library at 550 Discovery Blvd., this marker hails the historical importance of the Cluck family.

Recap: 'Game of Thrones' Season 8, Episode 1 – a reunion in Winterfell
This image released by HBO shows a scene from "Game of Thrones." The final season premieres on Sunday. (HBO via AP)
The final season of "Game of Thrones" has arrived, and it was everything fans could have hoped for and more.
[Spoiler Alert: The remainder of this article will discuss Season 8, Episode 1 of “Game of Thrones”]
The premeire was peppered with surprising humor and fulfilling reunions as all the main characters reunite in the Northern city of Winterfell – joining forces to combat the Night King and his Army of the Dead that threaten the very existence of the seven kingdoms.
The episode begins with Jon Snow and Daenerys Stormborn entering Winterfell escorted by the Unsullied, and Khaleesi immediately feels the disapproval of the Northerners and Jon's sister Sansa. The tense moment is broken up by Daenerys' two remaining dragons flying over the city – as its residents look on in awe.
Jon finally reunites with the remaining siblings that he grew up with - Arya and Bran – who he long thought to be dead. His rejoining with Arya is a particularly heartwarming moment, as the two were particularly close in their younger years. We see a rare moment of vulnerability from Arya as she's nearly brought to tears as the two embrace – and she shows him that she still has the sword he gave her many seasons ago, Needle. Unbeknowst to Jon, she's used it throughout her life to deliver an untimely fate to many who crossed her.
Tyrion Lannister reunites with his ex-wife Sansa, and the two have a conversation that is charming as it is intense. The last time they saw eachother was at King Geoffrey’s wedding, when he was poisoned and killed. Sansa fled and Tyrion was jailed and nearly killed by Cersei, who believed she was responsible for her son’s gruesome death.
Cersei makes her first appearance in the show soon after – as she's confronted with Euron Greyjoy, who was the only member of the main families to pledge his honor to her. His intention is made immediately clear – he wants to be with Cersei, and isn't shy about it. His arrogance pays off, and the two end up in bed together. Euron asks Cersei how his performance stacks up to her brother – something she bristles at but ultimately respects his brazenness. He tells Cersei he's going to "give her a prince" – without knowing that she's already pregnant with her brother Jaime's child.
'GAME OF THRONES' SEASON 8: WHAT PEOPLE ARE SEARCHING FOR
We then see Sir Bronn of the Blackwater for the first time – as Cersei's hand approaches him while in his favorite place, the brothel, and tells him that Cersei wants him to kill her brothers Jaime and Tyrion should they survive their trip in the North.
The show then pivots to the only violent scene of the first episode – as Theon Greyjoy rescues his sister Yara from where she's being held captive by their uncle Euron. He triumphantly slashes the other Iron-born guarding her, and unties her. She responds by headbutting him to the ground – likely payback for jumping ship, literally, when she was first taken captive. In typical "Game of Thrones" fashion, the two quickly makeup and Yara tells Theon to go to Winterfell to fight for the Starks – the family who truly raised him.
Things really begin to pick up after that, as we see Jon and Daenerys together once again. Jon is able to ride her dragon, Drogon, which reinvigorates what we learned last season – that Jon is actually a Targaryan. The two ride dragons together to an icy waterfall and share a passionate kiss.
In an emotional scene that follows, Daenerys meets Sam Tarly for the first time, to thank him for healing her faithful mentor Jorah Marmot, who was infected with greyscale. Darnerys then comes to the realization that Sam is the son of Randyll Tarly and brother of Dickon, who Daenerys controversially killed for refusing to bend the knee last season.
Sam is heartbroken and finds Jon – and tells him the secret the "Game of Thrones" fan base have been keeping. Jon is actually the son of Raegar Targaryan and Lyanna Stark – making him Daenerys' nephew, and the true heir to the Iron Throne.
Jon attempts to defend Daenerys' honor and say that it would be treason for him to take it from her.
"It's the truth," Sam argues.
'GAME OF THRONES' STAR LIAM CUNNINGHAM IS 'NERVOUS' ABOUT THE PREMIERE
Regardless of who takes the Iron Throne, the true enemy is still the Night King, who destroyed The Wall at the end of the previous season. We're delighted to find that a number of core characters have survived the attack, including the Wildling Tormund. They discover a shocking message from the Night King – a boy nailed to the wall surrounded by severed limbs. He then awakens – screeching – and the men are forced to set him on fire.
The episode concludes with a reunion that fans have been waiting for since season one. Earlier on, Bran sits in his wheelchair outside in the cold, and tells Sam that he's waiting on an old friend.
As you may remember, Bran is handicapped because in the first-ever episode of "Game of Thrones," he climbs to the top of a tower and witnesses Cersei and her twin brother Jaime having sex. Jaime then pushes him from the tower, crippling him and setting him on the bizarre course of his supernatural character's development.
We finish the episode by seeing Jaime riding into Winterfell and being greeted by none other than Bran – the first time the two have seen each other since.
A trailer for the next episode reveals an impending attack from the White Walkers – so stay tuned for another recap with Fox News next week.

Change at the top of Edun – Danielle Sherman is new head designer
The fashion label “Edun”, launched in 2005 by U2 singer Bono and his wife Ali Hewson, has blossomed quickly became a sought after producer absolutely in luxury fashion. Originally intended as an aid to self-help for the African textile industry, “Edun” is now one of thousands of fans – both critics as well as celebrities are absolutely thrilled with the imaginative creations that brought Sharon Wauchob for the label on the catwalk and in the shops.
Now there is a change at the top creative to: Danielle Sherman, previously worked for Alexander Wang, will assume the post of chief designer. The name Sherman is in the fashion scene so far a great unknown, mostly worked here for designers. In addition to Alexander Wang and the fashion label of the Olsen twins is one of the previous employers of Danielle Sherman.
Ali Hewson and Bono are convinced in any case full of their new addition – and also we want the newly minted chief designer all the best for their start at the fashion label, which would also bring a lot of charity in the world next to luxury!
Diane Prince Castle: Your little secret recipe
If you want to have success as a fashion designer, of course, you must be able to empathize with others. So it has Diane von Furstenberg made at the beginning. She did not fashion design, which bears no man, but those that they would attract even if your plan worked. Your simple wrap dresses were famous.
When she first started, all designers had reached a point where only crazy creations were on the agenda. No one wanted to make simple things. She can take anything and that’s why they had success. Just at the moment when they went to America to become happy with her family.
Fashion Styling Tips: Business clothes and jewellery
With career and business, we usually associate pinstripe and dark colours. Characteristics were dominated by men and therefore are difficult to be applied to the essence of the woman. Nevertheless, we are still trying too often to subordinate ourselves to these male stereotypes, rather than create its own standard.
Pastel shades for the executive suite
Women in the business world have not always easy to find it a dress style for work, with which they can identify completely. The idea of a clear and expressive outfit for the office contradicts almost feminine shapes and colours. An offensive feminine appearance may therefore not be good for tough everyday business.
This is partly due to a distorted perception of assertiveness, must be justified on the other, with the restriction of certain virtues to the male sex. However, women have made their way for a long time at all levels of the business world. Now it is time also put their own fashion business stamp! A fashion that depends neither on the skirt length, yet on the heel height, special only by the ideas of the wearers.
Success in Tweed
Especially for the fall and winter colours such as brown, grey and dark blue although according to the season, but you should have aware of the effect of cut, colour and accessories. The waist of the jacket, the collar shape, the processing of seams and pockets or the line of the shoulders have a strong influence on the overall effect of an outfit and its silhouette.
They dissolve in finding business attire for women of androgynous requirements of the media. As long as they do not show too much skin you, the world is open: How about, for example with a suit in a light champagne tone to the already makes a plain white or purple blouse for a looker? In addition, a tweed suit in aubergine or cognac can give them plenty of room for accentuation and details, but also speaks to a clear language.
Jewellery – spring-summer 2013
The spring-summer 2013 fashion shows in many bright colours and gold jewellery to delicate fabrics and fits perfectly. Another advantage of this trend lies in the incorruptibility of gold. Who suitable for spring and summer 2013 new trend is buying gold jewellery, invested money in a rising value in the precious metal?
So gold jewellery not only perfect in a new fashion trend, but is also a good store of value, because the price of gold and hence gold jewellery is sure to rise in the coming years.

Sébastien Josse and Charles Caudrelier, the winning duo to reform - Gitana Team
Transat Jacques Vabre 2015
In a little over a month, Gitana will launch the Mono60 Edmond de Rothschild. The second Imoca in the history of the racing stable fitted out by Baron Benjamin de Rothschild, this new craft will quickly hit the campaign trail. Indeed, after an express tuning phase in August and September, the most recent in the legendary family saga will use the Transat Jacques Vabre, due to set sail from Le Havre on 25 October 2015, to size up the competition. For this first foray, Sébastien Josse has opted to race with his co-skipper from 2013: Charles Caudrelier. Just back on dry land after the Volvo Ocean Race, where he secured 3rd place overall with his crew on Dongfeng Race Team, the Breton sailor is eager for more of the same and so it is with great delight that he rejoins the Gitana team for the famous double-handed transatlantic race between Le Havre and Itajaí in Brazil!
Charles Caudrelier, co-skipper of the Mono60 Edmond de Rothschild
“You don’t change a winning team!” is the perfect motto for the duo on the future Mono60 Edmond de Rothschild. As was the case in 2013, Sébastien Josse has opted to compete in the Transat Jacques Vabre with Charles Caudrelier; a decision as natural as it is reasoned. After what has been an intense eighteen months for both of them, these two sailors are set to cross tacks once again to their great delight.
On 18 November 2013, for their very first double-handed transatlantic race aboard a multihull, it was with great flourish that Sébastien Josse and Charles Caudrelier added their names and that of Gitana to the Transat Jacques Vabre winners’ list. Aboard the Multi70 Edmond de Rothschild, the duo dominated proceedings by completing the theoretical 5,400 miles between Le Havre and Itajaí in 11 days, 5 hours, 3 minutes and 54 seconds. Though this victory was a first for Sébastien in this famous event, it brought Charles’ victories to a total of two, following on from his win in 2009 in Imoca.
A few weeks after this arrival in Brazil, as Sébastien Josse put the Multi70 up for refit in preparation for the Route du Rhum, the winner of the Solitaire du Figaro 2004 took off for China, where a significant new challenge awaited him: managing a Sino-French crew comprising professional sailors and trainee offshore sailors in one of the most demanding round the world races. Though the Volvo Ocean Race wasn’t unfamiliar to him, since he won the 2011 – 2012 edition with Groupama, Charles was clearly switching to a whole new dimension by taking on the director’s role. It was an experience he handled to perfection and, just a few days ago in Gothenburg, it culminated in a very solid 3rd place for Dongfeng Race Team.
With the Volvo now in his wake, Charles Caudrelier will take a few days rest before hitting the road for Gitana’s Lorient base in early August. With the Mono60 Edmond de Rothschild just launched, the duo will be able to kick-start their training.
Midway through June, during the French stopover of the Volvo Ocean Race, Charles Caudrelier admitted how much he was looking forward to this new association: “I’m very happy about the prospect of sailing with Sébastien again and I’m pleased he chose me for this new challenge. The year I spent with Gitana in 2013 taught me a great deal and I particularly liked the team’s mindset. In addition to that, there’s the boat. I’m very lucky to be here at the start of the adventure and be in a position to fine-tune these machines with their new appendages! The future of our sport clearly revolves around lifting surfaces, which you can see cropping up pretty much everywhere, whether it is on one or several hulls. There’s a revolution underway and I’m happy to be part of it thanks to Gitana. The latest generation boats already thrill me so I’m keen to see how that translates on the water. We won’t have a lot of time to prepare for the Transat Jacques Vabre and I believe that the cohesion we achieved in 2013 and our complicity will unquestionably favour our quest.”
Charles Caudrelier’s return to the racing stable fitted out by Baron Benjamin de Rothschild won’t amount to the Transat Jacques Vabre alone. In fact, Sébastien Josse is keen for him to be alongside him for the Vendée Globe adventure: “It is no longer in any doubt that Charles is a great sailor, but he also has a great many other strings to his bow. He knows how to get a boat making headway like no-one else and he is particularly adept at fine tuning these machines, which require long hours and many miles to ensure they are reliable. He showed just what he was capable of in this role alongside Marc Guillemot on Safran as well as with Franck Cammas in the victorious Volvo of 2012. He’s a real asset for our team in the preparations for the Vendée Globe,” stated the skipper of Edmond de Rothschild.
The Vendée Globe is something Charles Caudrelier has rightly dreamed of for himself. However, due to a lack of time and budget for the upcoming edition, he deems himself incredibly lucky to have this experience offered to him: “I’ve devoted my past five years to the Volvo (victory with Groupama in 2012 and 3rd place in 2015 with Dongfeng Race Team), which requires a huge amount of commitment. I am still keen to compete in the Vendée Globe but I want to hit the start line with a competitive project, which notably implies the construction of a new boat. Given the short amount of time remaining before the start of the next edition, that wouldn’t have been the case. You have to be realistic! As such, the best way to prepare for the next race – the Vendée Globe 2020 – is to follow it as part of a team like that of Gitana, where there are the means to do things properly by developing the boat and there is also a talented skipper. With that in mind, I don’t feel frustrated. It’s an excellent opportunity which, I’m sure, I’ll learn a great many lessons from for what comes next.”
The home straight for the build in Vannes
At Multiplast in south-west Brittany, the Mono60 Edmond de Rothschild is a hive of activity. Indeed, after over ten months in the yard, the build of the future Gitana has hit the home straight. With a scheduled launch in late July, every day counts in the bid to put the finishing touches to the 18.28m Imoca, which is absolutely teeming in people now on a daily basis. In fact, over the past fortnight, the Multiplast team and the members of Gitana Team have been working on her together. The first section is focusing on the last of the structural work, whilst Sébastien Josse’s men are managing the assembly of all the systems (deck fittings, mechanics and hydraulics…) not to mention the livery of the future craft which, as is always the case with Gitana, has been entrusted to Hubert Corfmat.
The Edmond de Rothschild duo
The two skippers and friends boast sizeable track records with six Transat Jacques Vabre between them in all, including one joint victory in 2013.

Raped by Multiple Clergy in Catholic Boys Home
(Warning: language is graphic w/R-rated outtakes)
(To show the extent of damage caused by pedophile priests, CofA Blog publishes what victims say in their own words, for the record. If details of a traumatic memory from early childhood are wrong, that does not prove the entire recollection false, research shows. This series of posts comes from three afternoons I spent interviewing Ted Lausche in Chicago 2012. My Take is in this post: Ted 2. Coming soon are “The Hebert Incident” (with R-rated outtakes) and “Hell Everywhere at Madonna Manor,” the next two segments of this full length feature story, which begins here: )
Ted Lausche, self portrait 2013
In the late 1990s Ted Lausche realized he had to do something about abuse and molestation he lived through while at Madonna Manor / Hope Haven orphanage near New Orleans in the 1960s. Thanks to this new advancement, the internet, Ted found a specific place to report pedophile crimes he experienced from both male and female clergy to the Archdiocese. Ted called the number and Monsignor Ray Hebert answered the phone.
“As soon as I heard his voice, I knew right away it was him,” Ted said.
I looked up stunned, “A priest who raped you was the guy who answered the phone?”
“Yep, the one in the confessional,” said Ted. “Now he was fielding calls on perp priests. There was an awkward silence and then I let loose on him. I said, I'm coming down there to do to you what you did to me. I'm on my f---ing way."
Years later, Ted had to drop the name of Ray Hebert from his lawsuit against the Archdiocese, as did the other three men who named the monsignor as a perpetrator in the early two thousands. Because as soon as the men named Hebert in their lawsuits, the monsignor turned around and filed defamation claims against all four plaintiffs.
“I never heard confession,” Hebert said in an Aug 1 2008 deposition. “That was not my responsibility. The sisters never asked me to do that.” (Read more of Hebert's deposition at bottom of post.) *
Hebert died January 2014 and my advisers tell me dead men cannot file defamation lawsuits, nor can their families. So this story is going forward. Today Ted is a complicated man who has overcome great obstacles. He seemed smart and hardworking. He still claims that in spite of Hebert’s defamation lawsuits he remembers the man who raped him in the confessional to be the man who answered the archdiocese hot line phone forty years later, Monsignor Ray Hebert.
If Ted's perpetrator was not Ray Hebert, it must have been some other short skinny Acadian priest who spent time at Hope Haven / Madonna Manor in the 1960s.
As I heard Ted speak, I couldn't help but wonder. Could the monsignor have manipulated himself into that office just so he would be there to field calls that came in to report his own crimes? I know that is just speculation. I go on more here in My Take Ted 2 about Monsignor Hebert and his counter suits against pedophile priest victims.
This is Ted Lausche’s story.
When Ted went to New Orleans to meet the first time with the archdiocese, he also went public in local TV news. The station would not name priests, but did mention Madonna Manor and Hope Haven.
“I mentioned Gilbert Gauthe, too,” Lausche said, “and you could tell that name was a symbol of all that's wrong. He’d already been convicted in 85 so this was fifteen years later.” (CofA Blog published the Gauthe part of Ted's story in 2009 here)
After TV aired a report about Ted two times in one day on local New Orleans station, within weeks about a dozen other victims came forward and filed lawsuits for sex molestation at the Madonna Manor / Hope Haven, including three other men accusing Monsignor Hebert, who by then had been removed from his role in Victim Assistance.
Here is Ted’s story, in his own words. He spoke and I took it down:
IN TED’S OWN WORDS:
(From here on, questions from City of Angels Blog are in all caps, the rest of this is Ted’s own words, I took them down in this laptop as we met for three interview sessions in Chicago summer 2012.)
The first time I called, when I said the word Madonna Manor there was silence. Then they connected me to Hebert. He was in his seventies, but the voice was the same, you know the voice. They're pampered their whole life.
I told him, I'm going to come down there and do exactly what you did to me. He did actually rape me not just the time in the Confessional but also in another incident about six months later. He was there at the orphanage for the feast of f---ing something or other, so we’d have to serve and we’d clean up after.
As soon as I heard his voice, this sissy singsong voice, I was blinded with rage, hyperventilating. I got up paced, really fast, got out a notebook of information I’d already developed, the names of the perps, times and dates on paper, what I’d been able to find at the time, which was limited.
The brutalness of several of these incidences, it was painful.
I had to get up and pace while I was talking, and one reason I had to hang up was because my asshole was almost bleeding.
I have body memories.
WHAT LED YOU TO MAKE THE CALL AFTER SO MANY YEARS?
It was the late nineties early two thousands, right after the incident where I threw the ashtray, I went to the website, and contacted them. They said, we don't believe what you're saying is true.
Hebert said it doesn't matter what you do, I decide and I say whether it goes anywhere from here.
I said, I'm going to come down there and do to you what you did to me. I know where you work, who your friends are, I'm coming to get your ass, literally me and my broomstick.
It probably had happened with so many kids, he probably didn't know which one I was. But now this was me talking to him and I was f---ing livid. This is what helped destroy my family, because of things like-
I'm screaming “All f---ing five foot of the broomstick, you mother f---er, until it comes out your damn throat.”
And my kid was in the room.
(CofA: I look up from my notes stunned again when Ted says this as well. My daughter witnessed way too much of me screaming at phones while she grew up too.)
In order for me to do this, to report these crimes, my family would end up knowing about it. Anybody that was around heard what was going on.
The first lawyer I called in Chicago, Klepto or whatever his f---ing name is, said to me, It's very unusual for victims to have more than one perp.
I said you're going to at least make the phone call.
WAIT. WHAT INCIDENT WHERE YOU THREW THE ASHTRAY?
(IN TED’S OWN WORDS)
First time I realized I had a problem I was living in Joliet with this girl, the late 1970s, I’d just gotten out of service, just gotten out and was so f---ed up, I wasn’t thinking clearly, and S was a stabling influence. I was playing basketball and ended up at a Catholic school. The priest came out and said go away it's private property and I went off on him. Threw him into glass, careening into a hallway, I went berserk on him. I snapped. He came out with that attitude of there’s not a f---ing thing you can do and I grabbed his ass. My friends all freaked out. They’d never seen anybody even talk back to a priest.
They’d never seen this hidden anger that I had.
That was the first time I confronted this hidden anger.
I violated everything about who I was as a normal person by attacking this guy and I almost killed him. I head butted him and hurt my head, I was black and blue in the face. That was the first time I realized there was somebody else inside me that had nothing to do with what I went through in the military.
They kicked me out of the Marines because I wasn’t old enough, then kicked me out of Navy because I had a needle in my arm. I ended up in Florida at a navy base, NAS something or other, I don't even know, I was so f---ed up. I went AWOL in the Philippines they sent me to Florida. I became a heroin addict in the Navy. Before lying about my age and joining, I had been doing acid and things like that, but then I got wounded and the heroin really helped. Everybody had heroinh. Marines were wearing their hair long, we had a race riot on the ship. On the way back to the States onboard were thirty thousand Vietnamese we were bringing over to give them all Stop and Go marts.
Anyway, that was first incident.
WHAT ABOUT THROWING THE ASHTRAY?
Last incident before calling the archdiocese was I was sitting with B who I'm now married to B [at the time of the interview, now two years later Ted is divorced and engaged to a new female]. B looks a lot like S.
Our youngest son was just born.
I'm sitting there and I never watch TV early in the day, but this day I'm home doing an estimate for work and on the news there’s a cardinal and he’s saying there are pedophiles in the carpenters’ union.
It was like one of those movies where the devil takes over the TV, I'm hearing something maybe nobody else is hearing. It was some kind of interview where the cardinal was saying there are pedophiles in carpenter unions and also among plumbers, and and all of them have to be investigated.
At the time I'm a union carpenter, card carrying, working with plumbers every day.
Here’s what I'm told happened.
B says the room got quiet and I turned.
She says I picked this ashtray thing up and threw it at the TV. The tubes exploded and it started the drywall behind it on fire. I threw it so hard, it blew backwards and everything caught fire inside this area. My mother-in-law was there. I freaked everybody out.
Once I started having kids, you didn't get in a lot of fights, I’d ask people nicely like to watch their language.
This day I blacked out, I came out of it, and I came back from wherever I was, started shaking. B came over and held me.
DID ANYBODY KNOW YOUR HISTORY?
No, nobody knew. I went afterwards and called S.
Back in the 1990s, it hadn’t entered my mind that priest rape of a child happened to so many other people
They say repressed memory doesn't exist, I said, let me find somebody who I talked to about it in the past. So I called S, and said do you remember me talking about things that happened in the orphanage. She said, yeah you wouldn't go to my folks for holidays.
All they knew was I was raised at an orphanage and didn't like to be around Catholics
SO YOU SMASHED THE ASHTRAY,
B said that's when she first saw there was someone else inside of me.
Within a week is when I went to the website and left the email inquiry about the Manor. All I wanted was to get back to normal. I tried that week, then I sent that email.
About three weeks later a website administrator contacted me with the archdiocese phone number, the office to call with pedophile priest claims.
I called S and then I called whoever I could get hold of, these women I used to be with, I’d call and say, I need to know, this is serious.
My mother-in-law watched this happen and said, “It had something to do with what that cardinal said.” She saw me become another personality and she would not leave me alone until I finally said, look, some terrible horrible things happened at the orphanage, and when I heard this guy saying that carpenters are worse pedophiles than priests.
She said, you have to do something about it. It was about a week later, I said, I can’t. I was just getting back to normalcy, I’d had to take time off work, I was having flashbacks. I'm like what the hell is going on.
B said that in that ashtray incident, in a minute everything changed, I had a different voice, a different look, it was almost like my eyes changed color.
I had to take time off work.
Here’s my mother-in-law, who earlier in the relationship had nothing but bad feelings for me. When she got to know me she saw I really wasn’t a freak. I always held a job and paid the rent and bills. We’d bought our own house.
Now my mother-in-law is telling me I have to do something about the way I reacted to the pedophile priest news on TV. I said, you don't know what's going to happen if I go down this path, I don't know either, but it won’t be good. Nothing about this has been good, why would it suddenly change, would they help?
WHAT HAPPENED WHEN YOU WENT DOWN TO NEW ORLEANS?
After the first time, I called back next day to harass Hebert, but they already had another guy answering. So I talked to the secretary, and I asked her.
How is it the guy taking calls from victim is that guy who f---ed me and who knows how many other kids plus Gauthe, I know you guys know who Gilbert Gauthe is. There was a ring of them, aside from the violence and all the other bullshit.
The archdiocese woman says, Have you spoken with a lawyer yet. I say yeah and when I find one, I’ll sue.
Then later they wouldn't let me in with a lawyer.
I say to the archdiocese secretary, I want to come down and meet with the archbishop, and she goes, I don't know if that's possible. I said, I'm not meeting with Hebert.
Thing is, I still was thinking at the time that they were going to do the right thing.
(In the early two thousands) they paid for me to come down. First time we drove, and they reimbursed me for gas. Two other times I came by train.
First trip I met with them in New Orleans in these archdiocese buildings, ornate structures off downtown in a ritzy old area. It was around 6 PM in late October early November, dark when I got there, and it was an immense labyrinth of places with a cathedral behind it, that kind of architecture.
I go into the office to meet with them, my lawyer waits in the reception area.
Like I'm walking on a stain that I won’t be able to get off of me.
The whole thing is evil, you can hear the building breathing you know what I mean. Like I'm walking on a stain that I won’t be able to get off of me.
I go in to see this faggy guy and a dike nun. They knew my wife and lawyer were nearby.
YOU WENT IN BY YOURSELF?
Yeah. They go, What seems to be the problem.
I go, you know why I'm here, and they say, yeah we read the assessment.
What do you guys propose we do? I'm trying to give them the benefit of the doubt, I'm trying to maintain. I was so contained in the beginning.
I knew I was dealing with minions, so that's the role I kept them in, like you're really nothing to me, I need to get to the next level.
I said, where do you want to start, with people who were killed at Madonna manor, raped, assaulted? I went down my list. They let me talk.
I mentioned Gauthe and you could tell that name is a symbol of all that's wrong. He’d already been convicted in 1985 so this was fifteen years later.
WHAT HAPPENED AT THE MEETING?
We're going back and forth, they say give us names and I say, I can give you some, dorm mothers. At that point I hadn’t even thought about it, it just started coming out, the dorms. I named the four before Hope Haven, I named the dorm mothers, gave them names of nuns. I must have given them thirty names.
BECAUSE THEY HAD SAID YOU WEREN'T THERE?
They said, we don't have you in our records living at Hope Haven or Madonna Manor at that time. After me naming names, they knew it was true, I had been there.
They had a spin for everything I said. Because they are so deep into it, they're so f---ing criminal.
At the end of this meeting, they say, if we could resolve this, what can we do for you.
I wanted 3 things:
Public apology from whoever was in charge of New Orleans Archdiocese at the time.
I wanted to address the community that had provided the charity and thank them, but ask them to hold people accountable and identify any of these predator priests and nuns.
I asked them to send my kids to college
And the guy laughed and said, you mean like Notre Dame?
I got up. Shut the f--- up, I said, like I’d send my kid to that f---ing cesspool. One of my perps went there.
HE LAUGHED? DID THAT MAKE YOU SNAP?
I said, Shut the f--- up. That f---ing cesspool, my son is too good a human being.
HOW DID THE MEETING END?
I got up and walked out. Then I met with the lawyer who was in the reception area. I’d been in there 2 hours, my wife was waiting in the van. We went to the hotel.
I am blessed to have survived this long. I wasn’t asking for money.
WHAT DID THE ARCHDIOCESE SAY AFTER THE MEETING?
They said, We'll get back to you. We had three meetings, next two I took the train down.
They offered me a settlement a number of times. I said not without those three things.
One time while we were down there, they brought Hebert in the room. I was stunned and said, okay, but I wasn’t prepared for it.
Hebert came in and wanted to shake my hand I said, don't even f---ing look at me.
You mother f---ers, I don't know what game you're playing I'm going outta here to do interviews with W-W-W whatever.
TELL ME MORE ABOUT YOUR LIFE RIGHT BEFORE YOU MADE THAT FIRST CALL TO THE ARCHDIOCESE.
My third wife dragged me to a Linkup meeting, she sensed something was wrong, knew I’d been in the orphanage, didn't know details or times.
She took me to a Linkup meeting and it was a disaster, I was so angry at the people that did this. First of all I wasn’t ready to acknowledge what had happened, I was so far in denial, thinking, here they go again.
At that time back in the 1990s it hadn’t entered my mind that priest rape of a child happened to so many other people. I knew about the orphanage but then hearing about priests coming into people’s houses so confused me, was so disorientating to me. Juxtaposed with me not being able to go anywhere when I was at the orphanage, imagine finding out the priest was banging your son or daughter upstairs while you were watching late night TV.
And the shape people were in. Everybody was crying, grown adults, I don't cry, I'm angry and embarrassed. So I don't think I said a word at that Linkup meeting. That's how I was in those days.
DID YOU THEN HAVE OTHER INTERACTION WITH LINKUP?
I went to more than one convention, every one until they stopped having them. Louisville, Chicago, before Linkup broke up.
Then there was the incident with the ashtray. So I went to website a place for comments, told them, some really bad things happened at Madonna Manor.
And I call and hear this sissy singsong voice, he sounded like a total f---ing queen.
HOW DID YOU GET TO BE SO WELL SPOKEN WITH YOUR EDUCATION?
Sometimes I’ll spend all night in the library reading. All librarians have food in their drawers.
TELL ME ABOUT THE STICKERS
I wanted to put them in every institution owned by Catholics where they're interacting with children, a sticker with a hotline, saying, “These guys rape kids.”
Linkup had some back in the day that said, “If you were raped by a priest or nun, call this number,” or something like that or, “My friend was raped by a priest, call this number.”
Mine said, “I was raped by a f---ing priest” and “priests here raped children.”
I made them up myself.
The third trip down there I went back to Madonna Manor. It was dark. I drove up and B stayed in the car.
I must have put up forty of those stickers using them to seal doors. I put my own seal on their doors. I wanted to put those stickers in every institution owned by Catholics where they're interacting with children, a sticker with a hotline directly to my cell phone.
"Like God Bless You, Mister Rosewater," Ted says leaning forward, and I see a little young boy first discovering that revolutionary book.
“How did you happen to hear of us?”
“There's this big black and yellow sticker in the phone booth. Says Don’t Kill Yourself, Call the Rosewater Foundation.” Such stickers were in every phone booth in the country, and in the back windows of the cars and trucks of most of the volunteer firemen, too. “You know what someone else has written right under that in pencil?”
“Says, ‘Eliot Rosewater is a saint. He’ll give you love and money. If you’d rather have the best piece of tail in southern Indiana, call Melissa.’ And then it's got her number. What are you, some kind of religion?”
(God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater p. 102-103 by Kurt Vonnegut, 1965)

Background;
Times Picayune 08.25.05
WWL 03.19.10
** FROM DEPOSITION
of Monsignor Hebert Aug 1, 2008, regarding his defamation suits against his accuser:
(LISTEN TO A LITTLE TOO LOOOONG answer in Hebert's deposition below. In future posts in the Ted series, we will use more of three depositions of Ray Hebert from Aug '08, transcripts of which just arrived in my email this morning. -ke 8.29)
Did you ever hear confessions at Madonna
4 Manor?
5 A. I can remember one occasion, only one
6 occasion that I heard confessions, and it
7 had to be -- because of the nature in which
8 it occurred, it had to be while the Salesian
9 priests were away from Hope Haven. They
10 hadn't given up Hope Haven, but they would
11 send them off on vacation at certain times
12 if the children were not there, and I was
13 asked by the superior at Madonna Manor
14 whether I could hear confessions, because
15 the boys had not been to confession in quite
16 a while. So maybe it was because the
17 individual confessor, who was undoubtedly a
18 Salesian, that -- but the evening I went --
19 and I went on an evening because that's when
20 I was free. That's when I was in the Hope
21 Haven area. I went to hear confessions in
22 the residence where the boys were living at,
23 and I heard it not in chapel and not in a
24 confessional, but I heard it in a large
25 room, and the children were being sent by
the sisters from their residential area.
2 After one went to confession, another would
3 be sent down.
4 I remember that simply because I
5 remember dealing with a boy who had been
6 stationed at Madonna Manor after I got
7 there, and who had then become unhappy
8 because he was immature dealing with the
9 other boys and had been dismissed from Hope
10 Haven. And then after a period of time his
11 family said we can't -- we can't keep him,
12 he's still giving us problems, and they
13 decided to send him back to Madonna Manor.
14 And I remember dealing with that kid on that
15 particular occasion. I remembered him
16 because he had been at Hope Haven. I
17 wouldn't have known him otherwise.
18 Q. So are you testifying that you --
19 A. I was never a regular confessor for the boys
20 at Madonna Manor.
21 Q. I understand. Prior to becoming director of
22 Hope Haven, how many times do you think you
23 assisted either the Salesians or the nuns at
24 Madonna Manor by hearing confessions at
25 Madonna Manor?
A. I never did prior to that time.
10 MR. DEARIE:
11 His last answer was in his
12 lifetime he heard one confession only.
THE WITNESS:
18 No, I never heard confession.
19 That was not my responsibility. The sisters
20 never asked me to do that, and they knew
21 that wasn't my responsibility.

Robby Gordon’s Super Trucks in town

Robby Gordon’s new Off Road Stadium Super Trucks series will make a stop here today at noon for a 20-minute exhibition that driver Arie Luyendyk Jr. believes could knock the socks off of fans.
“You’re going to see the trucks drifting, sliding, laying down a lot of rubber, making a lot of noise with the treaded tires,” said Luyendyk, who finished fourth in the series bell-ringer April 6 in Glendale, Ariz. “Obviously, hitting the steel jumps, going maybe 80-plus (miles per hour) and it’s going to be really spectacular. I think it’s going to be sort of a throwback because (the late) Mickey Thompson did have an event on the asphalt.
“We’re just really trying to build awareness and get people to come out to the stadium races because our first event was insane. It was so much fun and the crowd there, I think, had a blast and I think Robby has something that is really special and it’s great that he brought stadium racing back to motorsports.”
Luyendyk, of Scottsdale, Ariz., said although these trucks are made to drive in dirt, they “are really spectacular on asphalt.” He also said he is hopeful this could turn into a points event at Long Beach.
Luyendyk is the son of two-time Indianapolis 500 winner Arie Luyendyk.
Andretti pleased with start to season
It’s no secret that Marco Andretti has not been happy about the way his IndyCar career has gone. He told this newspaper just that last year at the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach. In seven seasons ahead of 2013, Andretti’s highest finish in series points has been seventh twice. Last year he was 16th. And, he has won just two races.
Andretti is off to a nice start this season, with a 3rd-place finish at St. Petersburg and seventh at Barber, good enough to put him in fourth place in series points with 61.
“I think I’m pleased,” said Andretti, who races for his father, Michael, and Andretti Autosport. “I’ve been really working on consistency in the off-seasonn and we have that. But I need to be consistently better. Obviously, having teammates wins races, it bodes well for us and what we can do in the future. But I definitely feel it’s my turn and we need to win.”
Andretti said one of the things he concentrated on during the off-season was improving his performance on street and road courses. St. Pete is a street course, Barber is a road course and Long Beach is a street course.
Oh, yeah. I mean, on the streets you just have to look at the results,” he said of previous years. “I was over-driving it, but I didn’t know how I was over-driving it. It has noting to do with focus or anything like that. It’s just been working on what I’ve been lacking, you know?”
Andretti, 26, said he could not divulge and what he found out in that regard. But he did have an interesting response when asked if he believes this could be his
breakout year.
“It has to be, yeah, it has to be,” he said between practices at his transporter in the IndyCar paddock.
“Well, I think that speaks for itself, doesn’t it?” he said.
Andretti then walked away.
Flowers returns to A-High as opposing head coach
Posted on September 5, 2012 by David Felton
Aaron Flowers is an Artesia High football legend, as gifted a quarterback as the program has ever seen and as distinguished as a prep player in his sport as the O’Bannon brothers, Jason Kapono and James Harden were in the gym.
On Friday, Flowers will return to Artesia as the head coach of San Juan Hills. The Stallions are off to a 2-0 start this season after an 0-10 campaign last year. Flowers is in his second year in charge.
“It will be very interesting (returning to Artesia),” Flowers said. “I still have a lot of friends there. … (Artesia head coach) Joe Veach is a friend of mine.
“It will be very interesting to stand on the other (sideline).”
Flowers threw for 8,873 yards in his career, which is still seventh on the CIF Southern Section all-time list, and completed 582 passes (11th). He also tossed 79 touchdowns and was selected CIF-SS Division VII Co-Player of the Year as a junior. After graduating A-High in 1993, he went on to an All-America career at Cal State Northridge, and has been in teaching and coaching since.
Flowers said his father, longtime Artesia coach Norm Flowers, will attend the game, and his loyalties seem a bit torn.
“I told him he’ll have to stand behind the goalposts,” Aaron joked, “… but he’ll probably make his way back and forth to say hi to everybody.”
Artesia enters the game at 1-1 after a 55-14 loss to Whittier. Despite the score, Veach was pleased with his team’s overall effort.
“The score looked lopsided,” he said, “… but I saw some things that we did well.”
Artesia tied the score at 14 before Whittier pulled away. A blown pass coverage led to one score, and a pair of turnovers led to two more, giving Whittier a 35-14 advantage in about four minutes.
Game time Friday is 7 p.m.

Jordan fundraising “drive” Saturday
Posted on September 5, 2012 by Dave Werstine
Jordan High will be holding a fundraising “drive” on Saturday at Houghton Park in Long Beach. The Panthers will be looking to raise money for the baseball and softball programs.
The Jordan softball booster club has partnered with Glenn E. Thomas Dodge Chrysler/Jeep. The local auto dealer will bring new Dodge vehicles to the event, where parents, faculty and guests can earn $20 for the Panther teams by taking a brief test drive and completing a short survey. Anyone with a valid driver’s license, age 21 or over, can “drive for dollars.”
For more information, contact Dan Garcia at (626) 643-8089 or via email at dgtiger15@gmail.com.

A great time for fundraising
Posted April 23rd, 2013 & filed under Others.
Hiichiikok Foundation celebrated its first anniversary on Saturday, 13 April 2013 in style. It has provided attendees with a non-stop itinerary of entertainment and items to capture the attention of everybody. The Foundation raised over RM72,000 from this event which was shared equally between four notable non-governmental organizations, namely, The Salvation Army, Kiwanis Down Syndrome Foundation, Yayasan Chow Kit and Protect & Save the Children.
With clever use of lighting and simple decorative materials, SEGi University’s Multi Purpose Hall was transformed into an atmosphere which complemented the theme of the event aptly.
With over 500 people attending, the event was judged to be a success. We hope to thank all the sponsors, supporters and volunteers for their invaluable contributions to this event.
The photographs below captured the mood of the night very well.
Members of the Executive Committee of Hiichiikok Foundation jointly cutting the birthday cake to start the celebration.
Entertainment was coming non-stop for the entire evening which helped to create a generous mood among the guests.
Trigo Trio hailed from SEGi College Subang Jaya opened the night’s entertainment with instrumental pieces from a combination of an electric keyboard, a cello and a violin.
I was very happy to see support from my business associates and friends for the night’s event, among whom were Mr. Kee Lian Yong, Datuk Thean Bok, Datuk Lee Hwa Beng and Datin Lee.
Young illusionist, Edison Lim had the crowd mesmerised by the unusual way in which he used his magic to generate a great excitement among the audience.
Master of Ceremony, Sean Lee and Bruce Lim were tasked with auction off a whole lot of donated items. They delivered on their task and raised RM18,000 from the auction alone.
One of the highlights for the event was the lucky draw where our sponsors were very generous in donating attractive items to add colours to the event. Professor Mohd. Awang is seen here doing the honour of picking some of the lucky winners.

I was very happy with the organising committee’s ability to raise over RM72,000 in a short time. My hand shake with Mr Vijay Baskar ( from PS The Children) after the mock cheques presentation ceremony was well captured by the cameraman.
There were many happy participants to the event, judging from their smiles at the end of the function.

#bauma2019: Tomorrow’s Construction and Mining Technology Will Be Connected, Electrified and Diesel
April 12, 2019 - All manner of future technologies, including the latest advanced diesel technology innovations, have been on display this week at bauma 2019, the latest installment of the world’s largest equipment exposition taking place now in Munich. The expo highlights the workhorses of the construction, mining and earth-moving industries from the world’s leading equipment and engine manufacturers.
“The credentials for the future are innovative, automated, efficient, connected and clean, which ensures that advanced diesel technology will continue to play a dominant role in these vital sectors of the global economy,” said Allen Schaeffer, Executive Director of the Diesel Technology Forum. “Equipment on display in Munich by industry innovators and leaders including AGCO, Bosch, Caterpillar, CNH Industrial, Cummins, John Deere, MTU, Volvo Penta and Yanmar demonstrate diesel’s continued capability to meet the commercial demands of customers along with improved environmental performance that will keep clean diesel in the driver’s seat of the global economy for decades to come.”
Diesel engines are the technology of choice for powering most of the largest off-road machines and equipment types around the globe, due to the energy density of diesel fuel and the inherent efficiency of the diesel engine to convert this energy into work. Today, 15 sectors of the global economy depend on diesel.
“This year, bauma is also center stage for industry showing off the latest generation of clean – the new EU Stage V requirements,” said Schaeffer. “These state-of-the-art advanced technology diesel engines deliver even nearer-to-zero performance, the most stringent the world has ever seen. Even alongside the electric and electrified technologies now in development, clean diesel will still be the dominant power under the hoods of the largest mining trucks, down to the smallest compact machines, for decades to come.”
Today’s diesel engines incorporate a full range of strategies that enhance performance and meet increasingly stringent global emissions standards. Technologies range from Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs) to other engine strategies and emissions control technologies, which deliver near-zero black carbon and nitrogen oxide emissions, and lower greenhouse gas emissions.
The year 2019 marks the introduction of the new European Euro V standards kicked for new equipment manufactured beginning in January 2019. U.S. Tier 4 standards for heavy-duty off-road engines came into effect with model-year 2014 vehicles and equipment. China 6 standards come into effect in July 2020. India’s Bharat Stage VI standards will take full effect in 2020, and the phase-in of BSVI-compliant clean fuels began in April 2018.
“It’s all about doing more work with less fuel, not only on a machine basis but also through integrated and connected site ecosystem,” said Schaeffer. “Engine and equipment manufacturers are innovating to achieve increased productivity and fuel-saving for their customers, including for example hybrid and energy storage systems, where smaller diesel engines serve as electrical generators to lessen the load and deliver fuel savings and emission reductions.”
New diesel-powered equipment highlighted at the Expo include:
Bosch displayed modular common-rail injection systems for diesel engines of various sizes.
Caterpillar Inc. showed off the 988K XE, Caterpillar’s first diesel/electric-drive wheel loader (Source) alongside four new mini-excavator models, all powered by Tier 4 Cat C1.1 diesel engines: the 301.5, 301.7 CR, 301.8 and 302 CR.

Characters will be generated according to the standard system found in Everway. Since the game is out of print, I'll be describing it here for your reference.
Your characters should be able to work together in an adventuring mode typical to most RPGs. For instance, the phrase "my character would kill X on sight" should not appear in your writeup. Being reluctant to leave home is fine; being completely tied to a particular city (even Sigil) is a bad idea.
I'm only looking for a short background and some stats at first. You don't need to work out absolutely everything. You do, however, need to pick a Faction.
Planescape was one of the first "dungeonpunk" type settings. Characters come out of the standard D&D mold, with more cool on them. You can easily recreate a wizard, cleric, thief, fighter, psionicist, barbarian, bladesinger, and more esoteric stuff with the rules below. Typical races are Human, Githzerai, Bauriar, Aasimar, Tiefling, and Modron; I like 'em. If you don't know those, feel free to go with more standard types.
Characters are defined by their scores in the four classical elements:
Air, which describes intelligence and oratory skill,
Fire, which describes athletic ability and force of presence,
Earth, which describes physical and mental toughness, and
Water, which describes awareness and spiritual sensitivity.
You have 20 points to spend in total. You can spend these on Attributes at a 1:1 rate, or you can also spend them on Gifts and Magic. An attribute at level 3 is typical. Level 7 is clearly supernatural. No attribute can be less than 2 or more than 9 at character creation. Each level is roughly twice the level below it - someone with Fire 5 has a 50-50 change against four opponents of Fire 3 in combat.
There are no "skills" per se in this game, as all activity falls under one of the elements. You do have a free Specialty in each element, giving you a +1 bonus in that area. For instance, you might have Fire 4 with a specialty in Archery, which means that you treat your Fire as 5 for Archery.
You could also reclassify a skill based on its elemental affiliation. As an activity requiring endurance, Swimming would normally fall under Earth, but you could reasonably classify it as a Water skill.
Gifts are minor magic, relatively narrowly defined. The facility of a Gift is usually governed by one or more Elements. Your score in the governing Element will help determine how well it works in a given situation.
Gifts cost character points depending on three factors:
All gifts start off costing zero points.
Is the gift Frequent? That is, does it come up all the time? If so, add one point to the cost.
Is the gift Versatile? That is, can you do a few different things with it? If so, add one point to the cost.
Is the gift Major? That is, does it give you an ability that is a deciding factor in a particular area? If so, add one point to the cost. Some gifts are very powerful and are considered "Twice Major," adding two points to the cost instead.
Gifts that are neither Frequent nor Versatile nor Major cost no points. Your character has one zero-point Gift for free, and one further zero-point gift determined by your Faction. (Faction Gifts will actually change if your allegiance changes.) Any further zero-point Gifts cost one point each.
You cannot spend more than six points on Gifts.
+ Show Examples from the Everway Playing Guide
- Fold Examples
Pet Viper, 1 (major): A large, venomous viper has befriended you. All it can really do is strike those who threaten it or you; its poison sickens and incapacitates the average person (3-Earth). The viper's Elements are 1-Fire, 2-Earth, 1-Air, 3-Water.
Cat Familiar, 2 (frequent, versatile): An intelligent cat is your devoted companion. It can talk to you (and only you), and it is as intelligent as a child. It has no other special abilities. It can spy, carry written messages, stand guard, and so on. The cat's Elements are 1-Fire, 2-Earth, 2-Air, 5-Water.
Wolf Companion, 3 (frequent, major, versatile): A clever, loyal wold is your constant companion. It can do a few specific tricks, but it's just a clever animal; it does not have human-like intelligence. The wolf can fight, follow people by smell, stand guard, hear faint noises, and so on. The wolf's Elements are 4-Fire, 3-Earth, 1-Air, 4-Water.
Sweat Fire, 1 (frequent): You can make fire come forth from your skin. The flames are small enough that they do not improve your combat abilities much (though they may be very useful against monsters that are vulnerable to fire).
Throw Fire, 2 (frequent, major): You can produce fire from your bare hands. The fire can be formed into balls and thrown, and these large, hot flames can also be used to increase your combat ability.
Mastery of Flame, 3 (frequent, versatile, major): You can create heat, light, and flame at will. The flame can be used as a weapon in melee as well as over a distance.
Fast Healing, 1 (frequent): You recover from physical wounds seven times as fast as normal, so that a day's rest is as good as a week's would be to a normal person.
Instant Healing, 2 (frequent, major): Your wounds close nearly instantly, so that no wound last for more than a few seconds. A blow that kills you instantly, however, is still fatal.
Ageless, 0: You do not age. While this ability may eventually be very useful, it has little direct effect on play, so it counts as a free Gift.
Unkillable, 2 (frequent, major): You cannot be killed, though you can still be hampered by wounds, sickened by poison, knocked down by blows, weakened by disease, and so on. Sphere-walkers' quests often bring them into danger, so this Power is frequent. It is major because it changes your abilities dramatically.
Invulnerable, 3 (frequent, twice major): you cannot be wounded or poisoned by normal means, though you can still be struck down by forceful blows, knocked unconscious from lack of air, or killed by hunger or thirst.
Standing Unseen, 1 (frequent): You can become invisible, but must remain still ans silent or be revealed.
Walking Unseen, 2 (frequent, major): You can become invisible an can move about without breaking the spell.
Winning Smile, 0: Your smile is charming. It helps you stand out and may make some people more favorably disposed toward you, but it won't sway the hearts of enemies and such.
Persuasive Voice, 1 (frequent): You have a soothing voice that can sway the hearts of others. It will not, however, sway those who are hostile to you.
Charming Voice, 2 (frequent, major(: You can win the affection of those that you talk to as tome length. It will not work on those who refuse to listen, and those who have been charmed may realize what's happened when they're away from you.
Dominating Gaze, 3 (frequent, major, versatile): By speaking firmly and gazing into a person's eyes, you can exert some control of the other person's will. The weaker the subject's Earth score, the more you can get him to do. This control is usually unpredictable, and it's possible for a controlled person to snap out of the spell.
Instant Control, infinite : A Power that would give you instant and complete control over another would ruin too many plots, so it is not allowed.
Priestly Rites, 2 (major, versatile): You can lead worship services and divine ceremonies to channel energy. Effects that fall within the scope of Priestly Rites include forging oaths, blessing unions, bringing fertility to crops, improving an army's fortune in war, and so on. You abilities depend on having a congregation to lead, and they are at their peak on holy days.
Invocation, 3 (frequent, major, versatile): You can, apart from any worshiping congregation, invoke the power of deities to bless people, sanctify oaths, provide guidance, and so on. The Power is frequent because you can use it without relying on a congregation.
Werewolf, 2 (frequent, major): You can turn into a powerful wolf that is immune to normal (nonsilver and nonmagical) weapons. (If you only shift on Full Moon nights, the Power is not frequent.)
Werehawk, 3 (frequent, twice major): You can turn into a powerful hawk, which is immune to nonsilver, nonmagical weapons. The power is twice major because the hawk can fly and is immune to most weapons.
Bird Tongue, 0: You can speak to birds. The birds, however, don't necessarily want to talk to you, and you may find they have little to say.
Speak to Animals, 1 (frequent): You can speak to all manner of animals. You may find that they don't want to talk, don't have much to say, or are unlikely to have useful anthropocentric information.
Shadow Whispers, 1 (major): You can speak to the dead (though some ghosts are in no shape to hold a conversation, and some simply don't want to talk).
Glimpses of the Future, 1 (major): During times of stress, you get visions of the future. These visions are not consciously controlled and are usually hazy, general, or incomplete.
Visionary Ritual, 2 (frequent, major): You can perform a ritual to gain visions of the future, though the visions are usually hazy, general, or incomplete.
Glimpses Through Time and Space, 2 (major, versatile): During times of stress, you get visions of the future, of the past, or of distant places. These visions are not consciously controlled and are usually hazy, general, or incomplete.
Mystic Eye, 3 (frequent, major, versatile): You can concentrate to gain visions of the future, of times past, or of distant places. The visions are usually hazy, general or incomplete.
All-Seeing Eye infinite : You can get clear visions of the past, future or distant places that would ruin plots that depend on mystery, so not allowed.
Magic is a strong, flexible ability that goes beyond the minor Gifts and provides a great deal of versatility. Relatively few characters know magic. It is effectively a fifth attribute for those characters who use it.
You can pick one of the four types of magic described below and buy levels in it at a 1:1 rate. The general guideline for power is that someone with a Magic score can do what someone with the same score in two different elements could do. For instance, someone with Fire 7, Earth 7 could run at a sprinter's pace for a day while loaded with gear, so a magical spell at level 7 might create a flying carpet capable of transporting a few people at high speed for a day.
You should choose a power source for your magic: Arcane, Divine, or Psionic. This has little game effect - many people come about similar powers through diverse means.
You cannot spend more than seven points on Magic.
((Note to self: each type of magic needs its power levels listed.))
Chaos magic bends the laws of the multiverse in unreliable ways, often with nasty side-effects. In fact, many chaos spells were originally side effects that proved more useful and more powerful than the intended primary effect. Chaos magic warps, changes, and destroys.
Near a chaos mage, the world is less predictable. Matches might burn hotter, or refuse to go out, or have hints of strange colors. The breeze carries the scents of ozone and smoke. A weapon forged by a chaos mage might hold shimmering, shifting patterns like an oil slick, or leave ragged trails through the air.
Law magic works through the application and exploitation of little-known multiversal laws. Its spells are created deliberately and carefully through the study of existing metaphysical phenomena. Law magic heals, restores, and protects.
Near a law mage, the world is more reliable. One might find that coin flips tend towards a perfect 50-50 split of heads and tails, or that water flows without eddies and whorls. The air favors the clear sound of a ringing bell over the racket of conversation or battle. A shield forged by a law mage might show perfect symmetry and a shining finish even after a hundred battles, and each blow against it would sound it like a gong.
Druid magic works through the natural world - plants and animals, in all their odd forms throughout the planes. Druids of all persuasions think of their abilities less as spells and more as calls to action from the world around them. Their spells control growth, attract or repel beings, and direct the path of nature.
Near a druid, the world seems more alive. Animals follow them unconsciously, and plants germinate in their hair and clothing. Flowers smell more sweet, plants bear riper fruit, the sun beats down more strongly and winter wind bites more coldly. A potion brewed by a druid might bear the taste of spring water or nectar, or bring forth the memory of one's mother as it takes effect.
Song magic pulls at the heartstrings of the world and listens to its secret desires. The planes are living things to a song mage, shaped by the beliefs and actions of those who dwell on them. Its spells awaken perception and direct emotion, concentrating belief into tangible form.
Near a song mage, the world works in poetic ways. Those who are unaware find their actions ruled by drama and irony rather than rational thought, and yet the practical results are much the same. Many find themselves humming. A magical lantern made by a song mage would tend to reveal the hidden and conceal the obvious, its light changing hue with the mood of the day's events.

How ‘Krypton’s Midseason Twist Proves It’s the Gutsiest Prequel Ever
‘Sandman’ TV Series Coming to Netflix from Neil Gaiman and David Goyer
by Vinnie Mancuso June 30, 2019
No, you’re not dreaming. A TV series based on the groundbreaking Vertigo comic series Sandman is headed to Netflix from executive-producers Neil Gaiman and David Goyer, according to THR. Wonder Woman screenwriter Allen Heinberg is set to pen the series and serve as showrunner. Gaiman created the monthly comic for Vertigo in 1989, and artists on the book included Sam Kieth, Mike Dringenberg, Jill Thompson, Shawn McManus, Marc Hempel, and Michael Zulli.
The report notes that Netflix paid a massive price tag for the series, the most expensive TV deal that Warner Bros. has ever conducted. Attempts to turn Sandman into a feature film have been going on since the 1990s at Warner Bros., with Eric Heisserer (Arrival)being attached to write the script as recently as 2016.
Sandman, which ran for 75 issues, tells the many stories of Morpheus, an immortal entity who controls the world of dreams. The character is one of the Endless, an omnipotent set of siblings that includes Destiny, Death, Destruction, Despair, Desire, and Delirium. (In keeping with the “D” motif, Morpheus is also known as Dream.) The series won 26 Eisner Awards over its run, and together with books like Swamp Thing and Hellblazer, put Vertigo on the map as a darker, more literary alternative to mainstream capes and tights comics.
Gaiman’s work has been a hot property for TV in recent years. His novel American Gods was adapted into a series by Starz that is still set for a third season despite a downturn in critical favor in season 2. Good Omens, which Gaiman co-wrote with the late Terry Pratchett in 1990, was adapted this year by Gaiman himself into a ten-episode mini-series for Amazon directed by Douglas Mackinnon.
Stay tuned for more news and updates on the Netflix Sandman series as it rolls in, and let the literal dream casting commence!
