Hoodoo Book Review
age 10+ Creepy chills galore in Southern supernatural thriller. Parents need to know that Hoodoo is a supernatural fantasy set in 1930s rural Alabama. The plot draws upon African-American tall tales, local legends, and folklore of the South. Although the story's villain causes the death of a supporting character, Hoodoo contains relatively little violence: a fight with bullies, scary dreams, talk of murder and a hanging, and a magical showdown.

Ahead of this week’s special primary election for the Tennessee House seat currently held by State Rep. Justin Jones, the young Catholic-raised activist has reported a surge in fundraising, the fruit of an international zeitgeist following his expulsion from the legislature earlier this spring. In a financial disclosure filed on June 7, Jones reported just under $65,000 in contributions, including from various public officials, a number of Christian clergy, and U.S. Rep Nancy Pelosi.
Letter: Make America safe
In response to the article “Justices rule in favor of gun rights” (24 June), I find myself wondering when we Americans, will learn. The gun culture of the late 19th century today seems romantic because of Hollywood movies of steely-eyed good guys, but a lot people died before stricter gun control. I have to confess I’m becoming afraid — for my grandchildren in their schools, for our society on the streets and in the stores and malls, for our American culture. It is not a romantic time.

Measuring the Glass Transition Temperature of Vapor-Phase-Infiltrated AlOx-PS-r-PHEMA Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Thin-Film Materials
Glass transition temperature (Tg) is a fundamental property of a polymer that defines its upper service temperature for structural applications and is often indicative of its other thermophysical features. This paper investigates how vapor-phase infiltration (VPI), which infuses polymers with inorganic species to create organic–inorganic hybrid materials, affects the material’s glass transition temperature.

A Radical Approach to Thioester-Containing Polymers
Abstract A new approach to radical ring-opening polymerization is presented that employs a thionolactone monomer to generate polymers with thioester-containing backbones. The use of a thiocarbonyl acceptor overcomes longstanding reactivity problems in the field to give complete ring-opening and quan-titative incorporation into a variety of acrylate polymers.

Checking out the CD9 Candidates to replace Sinema
All of us in Arizona are carefully watching how the 9th Congressional District shapes up in a world where Republicans cannot be trusted to keep a single promise. The misery of this situation is that this has been the case for decades but we in the Republican party are just learning the depth of the unscrupulousness of our elected officials in both parties. Until the past year, we thought we got snookered by OUR own elected Congressman and that it was an aberration.
Trump orders Congress: ‘Repeal ObamaCare TODAY!’
The effort to repeal and replace Obamacare has been dragged out for months by establishment politicians – and President Donald Trump has officially had enough. That’s an approach advocated by Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul, who’s said he opposes the bill, which would do both at once. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell postponed a vote on the bill Tuesday because of opposition from conservatives and moderates.
