The Great Debaters This work has been published in the Teen Ink monthly print magazine.

Ever since I was little, I've listened to my parents fight. Maybe fight isn't the right word – more like debate over dinner about the latest political issue or new technology. When I was little, it worried me. I would sit between them with wide eyes as they battled over their opinions. I constantly needed them to reassure me that they loved each other and were not going to get divorced. It's just that my parents are opinionated people who frequently don't share the same opinion.
They were both very informed about world events, which made our dinner conversations strange at times. There I would be, eight years old, eating my chicken tenders, as my parents argued over presidential candidates. And it wasn't just at dinner. I heard their voices downstairs discussing what was happening in the world. Sometimes they would get louder or softer as they debated a point. When I had a bad dream or was scared of monsters in my closet, I would sit at the top of the stairs and let their voices soothe me. Over time, their disagreements began to comforted me. I heard their arguing voices during car rides, while watching television, doing chores, homework, or relaxing in our living room. Anything could set it off.
For example, take this recent argument. While driving in the car, my brother asked my mom her opinion on fracking for an English paper he was writing. Fracking – or hydraulic fracturing – is a relatively new method of extracting oil from the ground, and it is very controversial. My mom is completely against it.
“It's causing environmental problems. We're pumping all those chemicals near the groundwater, which is becoming a huge commodity,” she replied. Later that day, as I cooked asparagus in the kitchen, my brother asked my dad the same question.
“It's great,” he said. “We're getting so much more oil than we could before, and now we don't have to buy it from the Middle East.”
“But what about the chemicals polluting our water?” my mom asked frostily.
“What chemicals? There haven't been any chemicals so far, and lots of planning has gone into this.”
“Tell that to Florida's Gulf Coast. There were some pretty big assurances about that too.”
“Where's the sea salt?” I intervened.
“This is different,” Dad said.
“Where's the sea salt?” I asked again.
“Fracking is carefully organized and planned. And it's great because we can get our own oil here at home.” I got in my dad's face and grabbed his shoulders.
“Where. Is. The. Sea. Salt?” I asked.
“What? Oh, it's in that cabinet,” he finally answered. “As I was saying ….”
My poor brother looked back and forth between our parents, trying to figure out which side he wanted to take. They continued this discussion as my mom made dinner and my dad helped my brother write his paper. As they sparred, it dawned on me how funny this was – and normal too. Cooking dinner while arguing. A perfect picture of domestic tranquility, with a little spice thrown in that's all our own.
During all those nights as I listened to them talk, and the days when their voices would grow loud, the power of argument began to run through my blood too. When we had guests over one time, I spent the entire dinner locked in a debate over whether handkerchiefs are sanitary after I saw a guest pull one out of his pocket. My brother and I can argue for hours over whose turn it is to empty the dishwasher, until my mom or dad let out a sigh of frustration and settle it themselves.
“Honestly, where did you learn to fight like this?” my mom will say.
Where, oh where indeed.

About the Book

A modern, magical twist on the Gothic Romance and Girl Detective genres, the Lynburn Legacy books will appeal to fans of both BEAUTIFUL CREATURES and the Mortal Instruments series. Reviewers have praised the take-charge heroine and the spellbinding romance.

It's time to choose sides. . . .

In this second book in the Lynburn Legacy, the sorcerous roots of Sorry-in-the-Vale have been exposed. No one in the town is safe, and a decision must be made: pay the sorcerers' blood sacrifice, or fight. Will the townspeople (magical and not) become "owned" by the sorcerers who believe it is their right to rule? If Kami Glass has anything to say about it, evil will not win. Despite having given up her own piece of magic, she is determined to do everything she can to make a difference. And whether they want to or not, her circle of friends (and potential boyfriends) will not be able to help but go along with her unusual tactics.

Sarah Rees Brennan's darkly humorous take on Gothic romace makes it hard to put this book down.

After cloud technology in 2011 and the topic of "managing trust" in 2012, the cloud-based "Shareconomy" is the focus of this year's CeBIT from March 5-9 in Hanover.

This year, the sharing and collaborative use of knowledge, resources and experiences is the focus of CeBIT, the most important trade fair for the digital economy in the world. Appropriately, "Your first choice for cloud solutions" is Deutsche Telekom's motto for the Hanover event.

Collaboration in the cloud Networks, bandwidth, storage space, computing capacity and applications – they all benefit from the cloud. Deutsche Telekom is the first choice for cloud solutions. Europe's largest telecommunications group offers comprehensive, end-to-end services for any need.

Through its cloud services, Telekom helps business customers to cut costs and work more flexibly. They also take care of maintenance and updates. Cloud services continuously adapt to the current business volume, and can be topped up or reduced as and when needed.

From having to sharing Security is a top priority for all cloud services. All data is stored in Deutsche Telekom's certified, high-security data centers and protected from unauthorized access. Critical data exchanges are also encrypted via the high-performance Telekom networks. End-to-end solutions provide Telekom's customers with a high degree of security, access protection and transparency.

Modern tools that enable the rapid, consistent sharing of knowledge are already reality at successful companies. Blogs, wikis, collaboration, votes and other software solutions will continue to add dynamism to the working world in coming years.

Innovation through cooperation The demand for broadband will continue to grow significantly both in mobile communications and in the fixed network. Deutsche Telekom is therefore substantially stepping up investments in broadband networks and products over the coming three years. The focus is on Germany, where activities will center around building out the LTE network as well as rolling out optical fiber and vectoring technology in the fixed network. In turn, this will pave the way for new, innovative offers, some including partners. Several joint ventures will be presented live at CeBIT from March 5-9 at the Deutsche Telekom stand in hall 4.

Sample Chart
  Recruiting List Percentile
  TennisRPI Percentile

What is a percentile?

Your percentile is a value between 1 and 100 that indicates the percentage of players ranked below you. For instance, if you are ranked higher than 70% of all players, then you would be in the 70th percentile.

Why do you chart the percentile instead of the rank?

The number of ranked players in the TennisRecruiting.net lists changes from week to week, and the differences can be dramatic over long periods of time. For example, there may be only 500 players ranked before the busy summer season - and 1000 players ranked at the end. With these changes, your ranking may change significantly over long periods of time - and these changes are not necessarily correlated with your performance.

We have found that percentile does not fluctuate as widely as the raw rankings and better correlates with performance. Using percentiles makes the historical ranking charts more meaningful.

Why does the chart start at the 50th percentile?

The pool of players considered is much bigger than the players that we rank. Just meeting the eligibility requirements of our lists in terms of wins is an accomplishment. Since more than 50% of the players are ineligible across all classes, we decided to show from 50 to 100.

Frugal Christmas arrives early for Disney at UK box office

It's only November and A Christmas Carol is already No 1, albeit with a lacklustre £1.92m. The box-office feast will only truly start next week with 2012 and the Twilight sequel
Scene from A Christmas Carol (2009)
Rocket to the top … A Christmas Carol

Frugal Christmas arrives early for Disney at UK box office

It's only November and A Christmas Carol is already No 1, albeit with a lacklustre £1.92m. The box-office feast will only truly start next week with 2012 and the Twilight sequel

The chart-topper
Knocking Michael Jackson's This Is It off the top spot, Robert Zemeckis's motion-capture animation A Christmas Carol can at least be satisfied with its chart position. As for its opening gross – £1.92m – that's another matter entirely.

In the first place, it's behind the openings of the previous two motion-capture films from the Zemeckis stable: Polar Express earned £2.14m from its first weekend of wide play in 2004, and Beowulf debuted with £2.2m in November 2007. (And bear in mind, there were fewer than 60 3D screens in the UK when Beowulf opened, compared with 260 now.) Second, A Christmas Carol's debut is well behind that of 2009 big-hitters Bolt, Monsters Vs Aliens, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs and Up. It's even behind Coraline (£2.43m) if you include that film's preview takings.

Given that A Christmas Carol had its world premiere in the UK, and its British source material and support cast (Colin Firth, Gary Oldman, Bob Hoskins), more might have been expected from it here. The only saving grace is there is a long way to Christmas, and there is a lot of life in this one yet. And if you're wondering why Disney chose to release its big Christmas movie so early, the answer presumably lies with Avatar, which is set to devour all 3D screens when it arrives on December 18.

The arthouse face-off
You wait an age for a major arthouse movie, and then two come along at once. Since Pedro Almodóvar's Broken Embraces faced off against Kathryn Bigelow's The Hurt Locker on the August bank holiday weekend (both ended up, slightly disappointingly, in the £1.1m-1.3m range), the sector has been quiet, with less commercially potent features such as Fish Tank (£567,000) scooping up available audiences. Then, a week ago, An Education arrived, quickly followed by Jane Campion's Bright Star.

The predictable result is that one of these two pictures has underperformed, and the loser turns out to be Bright Star. The Keats romance took less on its opening weekend than An Education did on its second, despite being on 18 more screens. With the notable exception of the Times's critic, Bright Star attracted glowing reviews, but An Education has benefited from excitement over rising star Carey Mullligan. Plus, An Education's premise of a 16-year-old's sexual awakening in the 60s sounds more fun than its rival's tragic, doomed romance. Still, why one of these movies couldn't have opened in the less-competitive climes of one month ago is a head scratcher.

The big fallers
Takings for most of the big movies are plummeting, with This Is It down 52% and Saw VI a predictably steep 63%. Even Up, which hitherto has been especially buoyant, fell 62% – the direct result of losing the vast majority of 3D screens to new arrival A Christmas Carol. No major film has fared quite as badly as animation 9, which despite still playing on 273 screens fell a whopping 74%, for a site average of £310. Expect 9 to shed a big chunk of its cinemas soon.

The others
Given The Fourth Kind has gotten the jump on Paranormal Activity in the UK, you might have expected a decent result here. But its opening of £851,000 is below what might be expected given a $12.5m US debut. Of course, across the ocean Paranormal Activity is still riding high, offering direct competition to The Fourth Kind even after seven weekends on release. But The Fourth Kind nevertheless fared a lot better than Jennifer's Body, whose mediocre £737,000 opening is boosted by £267,000 in previews. It's a big comedown for stars Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried, who are coming off megahits Transformers 2 and Mamma Mia! respectively. George Clooney vehicle The Men Who Stare at Goats opened healthily with £1.21m.

The future
For the third week in a row, the UK box office has lagged behind the equivalent weekend from 2008 by margins of at least 30%. There just haven't been new releases lately to match the commercial power of November 2008's Quantum of Solace and High School Musical 3. Next weekend, though, we should finally get some decent firepower, thanks to the opening of Roland Emmerich's expensive disaster movie 2012. Then, a week after that, the box-office cavalry well and truly arrives in the shape of The Twilight Saga: New Moon.

South Riding hits the spot

A great Yorkshire novel is finding TV fans across the north

South Riding hits the spot

A great Yorkshire novel is finding TV fans across the north

A reader writes: "I just read The Northerner on a balcony looking down to the Pacific from Mulholland Drive in Los Angeles, and was immediately taken back to the world I grew up in long, long ago when there was still an East Riding. As long as it includes plenty of news of Hull, Beverly, Bridlington and Withernsea, it will undoubtedly thrive and prosper. Bravo!"

And another says: "could we have a northern take on the new series of South Riding soon?"

Bingo! For Winifred Holtby's fictitious South Riding was actually the East Riding; so here's killing (or actually praising) two Yorkshire birds with one post. Btw the East Riding still exists, not just historically but in the name of the ER district council. And when people die in Filey, locals still say: "They've gone to the North Riding" (which has the graveyard, while the ER has the church).

The Daily Telegraph's man may have called Andrew Davies' production for the BBC 'pure Yorkshire misery', but as the editor of the Hull Daily Mail says: "We might like pure misery up here." It's actually tosh that the series is misery. Quite apart from excellent characters, the wonderful scenery of Holderness takes a long-deserved bow. Isn't it interesting (ponders this child of the West Riding) that flatlands can be so beautiful?

The Yorkshire Post has a nice backstory too, on Holtby and the way her talented life was cut short. As for me: I think it's great, and I really like Anna Maxwell Martin's laugh. Can I also recommend that you visit Rudston church to see Holtby's grave with its fine inscription (adapted from Jefferson): "God give me work till my life shall end, and life till my work is done." She just got South Riding done in time. If you go, note too the interesting stained glass window in memory of a toff with that excellent title: Lord of the Isles.

No sheep lost in Beverley

Beautiful Beverley, whose common land forms a 1200 acre, green girdle round the city

Still in the East Riding: the Yorkshire Post had a very nice front page piece and pic on the first woman Pasture Master of Beverley Commons. No jokes about Little Bo-Peep, please. Sarah Walker, a 39-year-old NHS manager who will supervise grazing on the magnificent greens by animals belonging to 15 farmers, has all the makings of another Sarah Burton, the feisty heroine of South Riding.

Not forgetting our Phyllis

And finally, on this theme. There's an excellent lecture next Thursday, 17 March, on Holtby's equally able contemporary writer, Phyllis Bentley. Prof Dave Russell of Leeds Met university is a great expert on her. He's giving a public lecture organized by Leeds Phil and Lit in Leeds University's school of music – 7.15 tea and biscuits, talk starts 7.30. Bentley needs to be better-known. She really understood the whole North, not just the headline bits.

London restructuring partner Charlotte Møller and Europe and Middle East disputes head Richard Spafford are understood to be advising KPMG partners Jane Moriarty and Samantha Bewick, who were appointed yesterday as special administrators of the AIM-listed company.

A KPMG spokeperson confirmed the appointment of Reed Smith, but a spokesperson for the US firm said it could not comment on ongoing client matters.

Mr Justice Hildyard appointed the KPMG duo to the job at an emergency hearing at the Rolls Building on Sunday evening, making a rare special administration order under the Investment Bank Special Administration Regulations 2011.

Møller and Spafford instructed Glen Davis QC and Jeremy Goldring of South Square for the company’s directors for the hearing.

WorldSpreads is dual-listed on AIM and the Republic of Ireland’s Enterprise Securities Market.

The wind-up follows the suspension of the company’s shares on both exchanges last Friday, with the company giving “possible financial irregularities” as the reason in a market announcement on the same day.

It announced today that a further investigation had led the board to believe that there was a shortfall of client money of roughly £13m and that around £29.7m was owed to clients, while the total cash balances at the company’s disposal was approximately £16.6m.

A WorldSpreads spokesperson confirmed that Dominic Bacon – one of The Lawyer’s Hot 100 lawyers in 2004 – remains general counsel. Bacon was also shortlisted for The Lawyer’s In-House Lawyer of the Year award in 2009 (29 June 2009).

Shifting jobs? The five things you need to consider

Changing government jobs — or switching to the private sector — requires careful planning of renumeration, tax, super and other arrangements. Dixon Advisory offers some tips.

Changes to the traditional career path are opening up exciting opportunities for public servants to develop new skills and work experiences. But don’t forget your longer-term plans to provide financial security for yourself, your family, and your eventual retirement.

Here are five key things to consider if you’re changing jobs or planning future career moves …

1. Superannuation

If you are in a new-style accumulation fund such as PPSAP, changing jobs doesn’t have to affect your super. If your new employer cannot contribute to the fund, you can either leave your benefits to grow where they are or transfer them to the fund that your new employer will be contributing to — though care should be taken to protect existing insurance cover.

Defined benefit funds such as CSS and PSS are more complex. While both funds allow you to preserve your benefit if you leave the Commonwealth sector, you can’t continue to contribute. If you later return to the Commonwealth public service, you can recommence your defined benefit membership when you return.

The US administration’s gag on state agencies is the other side of the Trump team’s own skill at fostering dissent online. By Mike Seccombe.

Internal resistance in Trump’s America

The post on the US National Park Service Twitter account that prompted widespread bans on state agencies’ public communication.

The United States National Park Service doesn’t only look after sequoias and bison. It also looks after sites of national cultural significance, including the National Mall in Washington, where they celebrate presidential inaugurations.

Thus there might have been some justification for the official NPS Twitter account posting a picture of Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20. But not for the one it posted: a retweet of two photos contrasting the size of the crowd that turned out for Trump with that present for Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration.

That one post would have been inflammatory enough. Trump’s acute sensitivity to reflections on his popularity – evident in his angry insistence that he had won a “massive landslide victory” when he actually lost the popular vote by a record margin of almost three million – was already well known.

But there was another post, too: a retweet linking to a highly critical Esquire magazine article, reporting that one of the first acts of the incoming Trump team was to scrub all reference to climate change from the website, along with references to the Affordable Care Act and civil rights.

The administration’s response was swift. An instruction went out to staff at the Department of the Interior directing “all bureaus to immediately cease use of government Twitter accounts until further notice”.

A day later, the NPS began tweeting again, with an expression of “regret” for “the mistaken RTs from our account yesterday”.

Those two posts were clearly no mistake, though. They were the work of someone concerned that the incoming administration was intent on burying inconvenient truths, and who consciously set out to embarrass it by pointing out a couple of those truths.

And so began the resistance to the Trump regime’s rejection of any notion of due process or open government.

A list compiled this week by the Sunlight Foundation, a national, non-partisan non-profit dedicated to promoting political transparency, identified numerous government agencies – including the Environmental Protection Agency; the departments of health and human services, agriculture, energy and transportation; and the National Institutes of Health – that had been gagged from communicating with not only the public in various ways – via social media, press releases, information bulletins et cetera – but from communicating with other government officials and elected representatives.

The foundation noted that even the former Republican presidential hopeful Senator Marco Rubio had complained that when his staff tried to obtain details about Trump’s executive order on immigration they were told by the State Department that the administration had ordered the agency not to share information with congress. A half-dozen or more Republican lawmakers shared similar complaints, according to media reports.

It’s entirely likely the litany of gag orders is much longer than the Sunlight Foundation knows; its list was compiled from memoranda and other information leaked to various media. The White House has not responded to its requests, or those of the media, for clarification.

If the official channels of information are blocked, the obvious response is to set up unofficial channels.

Following the gagging of the National Park Service, there quickly appeared a rogue Twitter account – @AltNatParkSer – featuring a similar arrowhead logo to the official one. As of midweek, the alternative account had more than 55,000 followers.

From there, rogue accounts have proliferated wildly. There are alternatives to the official sites of the Environmental Protection Agency, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Forest Service, Food and Drug Administration, the State Department, you name it. In some cases there are multiple alternatives.

Some, not all, are very slick and informative. An alternative to the official National Aeronautics and Space Administration account – @RogueNASA – tweets and retweets actual science, particularly climate science, along with posts about related political developments.

Many of these rogue accounts superficially resemble the official ones, using official logos or minor variations on them. The administration has responded by threatening criminal prosecution for trademark infringement.

At the start of this week, Forbes magazine enumerated 15 accounts, with a combined following of 3.5 million people, but this was surely an undercount. It did not, for example, include the 75,000-odd followers of the rogue State Department account. And the follower numbers are increasing rapidly.

These are impressive figures. The number, size and rate of growth of the Twitter resistance accounts prompted some of the more excitable progressive media to proclaim a decisive advance in the political use of social media. Some, such as Vox, suggested Trump – @realDonaldTrump – was being beaten at his own game.

Hardly. For one thing, Trump’s Twitter following, at 23 million, is far bigger than all those rogue accounts. For another, the big advance, if you could call it that, was the Trump team’s use of social media during the election campaign.

Almost a decade ago, two researchers in the field of psychometrics at Cambridge University began working with nascent areas of social media. As part of their work they invited Facebook users to answer psychometric questionnaires based on the OCEAN personality scale – an acronym for openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism – to give them a “personality profile”. Users were also invited to share their Facebook data with the researchers.

 The researchers, Michal Kosinski and David Stillwell, got millions of responses.

“Suddenly,” as a recent article in the online technology magazine Motherboard put it, “the two doctoral candidates owned the largest dataset combining psychometric scores with Facebook profiles ever to be collected.”

Among the things they discovered as they went through the data and refined their model was that a remarkably accurate profile of a person could be drawn simply from a few dozen “likes” on Facebook: skin colour, sexual orientation, intelligence, religious affiliation, political views and more.

As they refined further, they realised that accurate profiles could be gleaned not just from Facebook likes but from the data trail we all leave.

To cut short the long, riveting, scary story told by Kosinski to Motherboard, he was approached in 2014 by a company wanting access to his database and methods. He knocked them back, but in late 2015 a related company bobbed up, working for the “Leave” campaign in the Brexit referendum. It offered “micro-targeting” of voters through the coupling of big data with the same psychological model used by Kosinski and Stillwell.

That company, Cambridge Analytica, also went to work on the US presidential campaign. Its boast was that it had profiled the personality of “every adult in the United States”. Steve Bannon, who became Trump’s chief strategist in August last year and is arguably the second-most powerful person in Washington, is a director of the company.

“We have never seen a campaign quite like it before,” says Andrew Hughes, a lecturer in marketing at the school of management at the Australian National University, specialising in political marketing research.

The Trump campaign was untroubled by issues of truth or falsity, unconcerned that critics identified the many inconsistencies and contradictions in the candidate’s statements, uninterested in detailed arguments with opponents or the political media elites.

Instead, it identified the greatest concerns of particular fragments of the electorate: drugs, blacks, Muslims and other minorities, Mexicans, the Chinese, free trade, gun ownership et cetera. Then it tailored multiple different messages and served them automatically online.

“It was very simplistic messaging, working on fear,” Hughes says. “It worked well because these people said, ‘Yeah, no one’s ever listened to me on that before.’

“Trump used misinformation really, really well. His policy assertions weren’t backed up by fact or evidence, but he knew his market. He identified the trigger points that would move people from being disengaged to being engaged.”

So they came out and supported Trump. Hughes suspects they support him still, maybe even more strongly.

“Right now they are getting affirmation that they’ve done the right thing because all the people they don’t like, from the left or the establishment, are now so upset.”

But this does not mean resistance is futile. Bear in mind that only about 58 per cent of the 150 million-odd US registered voters actually turned up and fewer than half of them voted for Trump. Not many minds have to be changed.

Erica Chenoweth is an American political scientist at the University of Denver’s Josef Korbel School of International Studies, a specialist in civil resistance who has studied violent and nonviolent resistance movements around the world.

She found not only that nonviolent opposition to dictatorial regimes is far more effective than violent insurrection, but that it requires the active, determined opposition of only a few per cent of the population to be effective.

It needs more than Twitter posts, though. It requires a large, diverse mobilisation of people, taking to the streets, implementing boycotts or taking other action such as strikes. It requires defections from within the ruling elite and noncompliance from within the bureaucracy. And it requires some, but not much, money.

We have seen evidence of these preconditions already in America. The American Civil Liberties Union raised $24 million in a weekend to fund legal action against Trump’s travel bans. The acting attorney-general, Sally Yates, defied the White House by instructing Justice Department lawyers not to defend his new travel restrictions, and more than 1000 senior State Department officials put their names to a document dissenting from it. We have heard from the millions on the streets protesting against Trump’s executive orders, and from the corporate leaders – including Republican stalwarts such as the Murdochs and Koch brothers, not to mention a significant number of world leaders.

It is all quite unprecedented, but let us not forget it’s only been a couple of weeks. Chenoweth’s work showed effective resistance required, above all, perseverance. On average, it took about three years.

That’s a long time for people to maintain the rage.

An Interview With Larry Rosenberg

A person says, “I’m trapped in this room; I’m very unhappy.” I point to the door. The door is in their own mind. I tell people that the exit from their suffering is as close as their breath. It’s in the same place as the suffering.

Essays, Memoirs, & True Stories

Fist Stick Knife Gun

My mother, my three brothers, and I lived in a small apartment in the Bronx. I tell people that we were the poorest welfare cheats that ever were. With welfare, and working for slave wages (which is all they paid even the most competent black women in 1958), my mother could barely keep a roof over our heads.

The Other Woman

I’m sitting on the beach, watching my son play in the water, and thinking about Gina, my boyfriend’s other girlfriend.

At Home In L.A.

The first time I met my future in-laws, I was standing next to the bed that their son and I had been sharing for some months. The apartment was small, the bed very large. While the four of us made a stab at pleasantries, our eyes darted furtively to pillows and sheets. It didn’t help that B. T., our cat, kept rolling across the blanket, purring and occasionally licking her stomach.

The Kingdom, The Kingdom

Here I am, resident of Saudi Arabia, and my government papers label me an infidel and a woman. But I don’t care — I love it here! I love the sun and the sand and the aridity. It’s so arid I have to sleep with bottles of moisturizer within reach and wake up in the wee hours to anoint my hands. The hot air instantly dries everything to the point of near sterilization; rot can’t occur here. Deep in the heart of this desert land, rising up out of nowhere amid the sea of sand, is the city: Riyadh! We can drive out of town a bit and see camels wandering about; their owners let them loose to wander for eleven months at a time! We can see glorious huge escarpments and not a tree, not a bush, no green anywhere, just the endless beige of the sand and, above, the invariably blue sky.

The Game Of High School

Bob Penny, voted Most Self-Absorbed Hunk by a committee of me, said, I am in my big-boob period, as he pretended to swoon over Lisa Belia. I took his remark to be of the making-me-jealous variety. I didn’t even have to pretend to ignore it, because I was in love with you.

Readers Write

We were dining at the most exclusive restaurant in the city, the sort of place you have to call the minute it opens on the first of the month to get a reservation for next month. The chef’s reputation was world-class, the atmosphere was as quiet as a bank vault (which, considering the tab for the prix fixe dinner, seemed appropriate), and there was one waiter whose only task was to make sure each diner had a fresh, hot dinner roll at all times.

August 1996

The inescapable aloneness I tried every day to escape. The key was somewhere; I was sure of it. Her arms. The tattered book about God. The next cup of coffee, or the next.

Whenever people say, “We mustn’t be sentimental,” you can take it they are about to do something cruel. And if they add, “We must be realistic,” they mean they are going to make money from it.

Convicting terror suspects

THE Government’s reluctance to allow intercept evidence to be used in court to procure the conviction of terrorist suspects seems mysterious and self-defeating: why deny yourself such a key weapon, especially if there are “several hundred” terrorists already in this country planning attacks, as the Prime Minister has recently claimed?

Until 1985, the interception of communications by the State was wholly outside the law. The official position was that such eavesdropping took place only on the authority of a warrant issued by the Home Secretary when it was needed for the detection of serious crime or for safeguarding the security of the State. Even then, various other procedural hurdles had (supposedly) to be negotiated. But there was no mechanism for ensuring that the State stayed…

Murtagh navigates path to victory

Trainer Aidan O’Brien is richly rewarded for trusting his instincts with a fifth 2,000 Guineas victory in 11 years

So much about training racehorses is down to instinct. In winning the stanjamesuk.com 2,000 Guineas for the fifth time in 11 years on Saturday, Aidan O'Brien demonstrated that his are among the most astute in the business.

Take the conundrum that was Henrythenavigator. The apple of O'Brien's eye last summer, Henrythenavigator subsequently regressed into a silhouette of the colt who landed the Coventry Stakes with aplomb. A pair of comprehensive defeats on unsuitably soft ground prompted O'Brien to summon the vets. None could pinpoint the cause of his decline.

That's when O'Brien trusted to instinct. “We decided to pull some of the two-year-olds back,” the trainer reflected. “They just weren't right, and we thought that if we pressed on, we could ruin them.”

The reward…

Ross County 0 Falkirk 1: Heaven seventeen for Falkirk after deadly Duffy strikes

The fact that Inverness Caledonian Thistle’s creation of two new stands had met Premierleague guidelines and brought top-flight football to the Highlands for the first time was a bitter blow to those who always imagined Victoria Park, rather than Caledonian Stadium across the Kessock Bridge, would host the achievement. Well, at least they were facing a side who now look destined to join the ranks of Scotland’s élite.

There was certainly an air of defiance about the Dingwall hordes who turned out in decent numbers, determined to steadfastly ignore the big day over in Inverness. A great points gulf with Falkirk, which had widened after this game, confirms they will have to wait at least another year to make the step up, but there was…

This month we’re celebrating 10 years of big ideas at Thinking Juice. It’s a fantastic achievement for the team and we’re all absolutely delighted at how far we’ve come in what feels like no time at all.

From a humble beginning with no start-up clients, to where we are today can only be attributed to a brilliant team’s hard work, commitment, enthusiasm, energy and talent.

The agency was founded by me and my co-founding director Debbie Lennon. Our main focus was to build an agency that we could be proud of. And we certainly are that.

In all that time the whole team has worked to create big ideas that delivered big results, build on smart thinking, not just hefty spending. And it’s earned us a reputation as one of the best, most strategic and effective independent agencies in the UK.

Today, we work for brands including uSwitchJohn LewisBritish Bankers’ AssociationG PlanMarshall AmpsAvivaDimplexCaterpillarMizunoand many more. We’ve been named UK Agency of the Year, the UK’s Most Creative, Most Effective and this year Most Strategic Agency.

The secret of our success is simple. Hard work. It’s not always been easy. But it’s been an incredible journey.

I have so many amazing memories over that time. It’s hard to say which one is truly the best. Although I say it was winning UK Agency of the Year (and wow, what a night that was – that, said the morning after wasn’t so good)… it’s probably was more likely that the most exciting moment was the day I left my previous agency, taking a step into the unknown with no clients at all.

It was frightening. Energising. And inspiring at the same time. And I feel lucky to be working in such an incredible team today, and to have worked in such a fantastic partnership.

It really is humbling to work with such a brilliant team. And I know I safely speak for both Debbie and myself when I say thank you to everyone that has helped along the way. Clients. Suppliers. Team. Friends and family.

Here’s to another ten years of big ideas!

And to celebrate. The team has some fun on Vine (oh dear). Enjoy.

Revive Israel was founded by Asher & Betty Intrater, who have been in partnership for over 30 years through Tikkun Ministries with Dan Juster, Eitan Shishkoff, Paul Wilbur, David Rudolph, and Don Finto.

Our vision is to serve the Kingdom of Yeshua. We seek to foster revival here in Israel and around the world. Our team is made up of local Israeli Messianic Jews, along with our friends and partners from the nations. We believe in the active ministry of apostles and prophets in our day, as they were described in the first century in the book of Acts.

'Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?' And He said to them ... 'You shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth' Acts 1:6-8.

We seek to fulfill this great commission of Yeshua and His disciples by the direct sharing of the gospel with the anointing of the Holy Spirit, first in Jerusalem, then throughout Israel, also to our Arab neighbors and even to all nations.

Thank you for your desire to partner with us in reaching those without the hope available in Yeshua the Messiah here in Israel and in the nations.

Specific Project:

The Tikkun office will mail donors an annual consolidated IRS 501(c)(3) receipt for any donations made in the current year. The receipts are postmarked and mailed on or before January 31st of each following year.

Tikkun International is a U.S. 501(c)(3) organization that has partnered with several leaders and ministries abroad to administer donations according to our expressed purposes. When one gives to a Tikkun-connected ministry, one writes checks to Tikkun International and suggests the ministry to which they direct their funds. We are the agency that serves these ministries for U. S. fund management, accounting and audits etc. We seek to honor donor wishes. However, (as is the case with all non-profits) the IRS does require that ultimate control over the disbursement of such funds is according to the decision of the Tikkun board on which are some of the men who lead the connected ministries.

Make checks payable to "Tikkun International". Mail to: PO Box 2997, Gaithersburg, MD 20886-2997.

For donations to individual emissaries, attach a note indicating "for the ministry of -----------", but do not write on the check. By IRS rules (which apply to all non-profits), checks that are designated for individuals on the memo line can not be accepted as a tax deductible gift. We seek to honor donor's requests here, and our emissaries depend upon us doing so.

Currently, as a USA 501(c)(3) not-for-profit charitable organisation, we are only able to offer donation receipts that are acceptable to the United States tax authorities. In particular, donations are not considered tax-deductible by the Canadian tax authorities, neither are they eligible for the UK GiftAid scheme.
