JEMAIL: Nicholas, Douglas (MC1964) is on a roll

Hi John,

I’d just like to invite my fellow Jaspers to mosey on over to my website, which has a lot of information about my current novel, Something Red; the novel’s sequel, The Wicked; and four books of poetry.

Here’s the link:

More news: Simon and Schuster wants two more books from me–that would be the third book of what will be a trilogy, and a fourth book, as yet undecided.

Regards,

Douglas

[JR: Congrats. Jaspers don't "mosey"; stride forthrightly with courage or stagger during or after a hard night, but never "mosey". LAFF. Glad your doing well with these projects. So when will you pass Paterson?]

JUPDATE: Henery, John (MC1964) changes email

I am changing my e-mail address to {Privacy Invoked}. Please confirm this change and note your records as I want to continue receiving your informative updates on Manhattan College, its students and alumni and all other things relating to the college. Keep up the good work.

[JR: Thanks, for the compliment. I'm jut a funnel. No input; no output. By the way, anyone can control their own subscriptions and feeds. I posted this message to let anyone know, who has your address from a third party, that it's changing. That's why I push folks, especially youngsters, to get their own domain name. Like "reinke.cc". Best money I ever spent. nd, gmail does a lot of the work behind the scenes on some of the names, but I'm in control. FYI! Funny how this goes in spurts, big day one day and then a drought. ]

Please keep Kevin, his wife Nancy, their children Barbara and Kevin and their family in your prayers as we pray for the repose of the soul of this loving Husband, Father, Pop Pop and Jasper.

Kevin was a class mate of mine and a relative of the O’Neill family who sent sons Pat and Jimmy to MC. Kevin was thus a regular at our former James K. O’Neill Memorial golf outing which sadly was discontinued a few years back when the matriarch of the O’Neill family was called Home.

Saturday, January 12, 5PM: Douglas Nicholas “Something Red”
Start: 01/12/2013 5:00 pm
From debut author Douglas Nicholas comes a haunting story of love, murder, and sorcery.

During the thirteenth century in northwest England, in one of the coldest winters in living memory, a formidable yet charming Irish healer, Molly, and the troupe she leads are driving their three wagons, hoping to cross the Pennine Mountains before the heavy snows set in. Molly, her lover Jack, granddaughter Nemain, and young apprentice Hob become aware that they are being stalked by something terrible. The refuge they seek in a monastery, then an inn, and finally a Norman castle proves to be an illusion. As danger continues to rise, it becomes clear that the creature must be faced and defeated—or else they will all surely die. It is then that Hob discovers how much more there is to his adopted family than he had realized.

An intoxicating blend of fantasy and mythology, Something Red presents an enchanting world full of mysterious and fascinating characters— shapeshifters, sorceresses, warrior monks, and knights—where no one is safe from the terrible being that lurks in the darkness. In this extraordinary, fantastical world, nothing is as it seems, and the journey for survival is as magical as it is perilous.

Join us for this exciting reading and book signing in our newly-renovated event space upstairs at The Golden Notebook!

Charlie Cavanagh was a priest for over 40 years; his defrocking led to his loss of home and pension. His accuser has since recanted the accusations and admitted that, not only was there no sexual improprieties on a Washington, DC trip, there was no such trip . In another article, his lawyer, ex Assemblyman (B, NY) and ex-Manhattan Prep and Notre Dame basketball star John Dearie was quoted as saying “I think Cardinal Egan has a lot of questions to answer on the stand” — no matter what the outcome, it seems to me that some of the public secrecy surrounding Charlie’s Erie, PA trial will be swept away!)

> ‘The statement was not true, and I apologize for it,’ former accuser Daniel Donohue wrote in a sworn statement submitted to the federal court.

> Donohue had previously claimed that Kavanaugh got into his bed in a Washington hotel room and had rubbed against him. Donohue had also claimed that when Kavanagh held his hands during prayer it made him uncomfortable.

> ‘The pointed finger has come back. He has withdrawn the only allegation against Monsignor Kavanagh,’ his attorney John Dearie told the court.
