In an interview with American Songwriter, <mask> stated that "I honestly didn't know I could write songs that could be that universal. Songs that could be that successful. I think one of the things about that song, as I have looked back on it and sort of examined under the hood, is that the sentiment is pretty universal... The beauty of "God Gave Me You" was that I finally saw what I had done and it opened this really cool door to me being more conscious about writing songs that appeal to more people, and this new record Stories to Tell really showcases that." Stories to Tell, <mask>'s fifth full studio album, was released on March 13, 2012. <mask>' second Christmas collection, A December to Remember, was released on October 29, 2013.It is the follow up to his successful 2010 holiday project Very Merry Christmas. <mask> co-produced A December to Remember, which features six originals, four written and two co-written, such as "So, Santa" and "Better Than Christmas Day".

The castaways built two small boats to complete their journey to Jamestown. <mask>, also an Ancient Planter and a Shareholder in the Virginia Company, came to Virginia on the Starr in May 1611. In Stanard, in Wirt and Grizzard and Smith, <mask> (not shown as "Sergeant") is listed as a burgess in the 1619 general assembly for Charles City.He is not listed as a burgess in the 1624 general assembly in Stanard, although he signed the letter of burgesses replying to Alderman Robert Johnson in 1624. On the other hand, he is listed in McIlwaine, H. R., ed. Volume 1 of Journals of the House of Burgesses, 1619 - 1658/59. Richmond, VA, 1915, p. viii, as a burgess for Westover, an incorporation of Charles City, in the 1623/24 assembly. A burgess identified as "Sergeant Sharp" (no first name, no "e" at the end of the name) is listed as a burgess for the "Neck of Land" (which was later called “Jones Neck”) for the 1629 session in both Stanard Henings.

McCartney states that <mask>'s superiors discussed remarks he made while inebriated which complained about a British government decision that gave the right to trade with incoming ships to official British merchants to the exclusion of that right for individual plantations. <mask> and three others also lost a suit to Richard Taylor in January 1629 in which Taylor accused the men of preventing him from using land for which he held a patent from Governor George Yeardley. Burgess

In 1629, <mask> represented Charles City (sometimes referred to as Bermuda City) in the Virginia House of Burgesses.Wife and property

Records showed that <mask> and his wife Elizabeth were living at Bermuda Hundred Plantation on February 16, 1624 and were still there on January 20, 1625 with their sons, Samuell, age 2, and Isack, age 2 months. In a list of patented land sent to England in 1625, <mask> was shown with 40 acres in Charles City, the location of Bermuda Hundred. Death

<mask> died after October 1629 but before February 12, 1635 when his widow, Elizabeth, who identified herself as <mask>'s widow, patented land in the Varina area of Henrico County, just east of Henricus Island, on the basis of headrights. See also

<mask> (; ; July 1172 – ) was the first emperor of the Latin Empire of Constantinople; Count of Flanders (as <mask>) from 1194 to 1205 and Count of Hainaut (as <mask>) from 1195-1205. <mask> was one of the most prominent leaders of the Fourth Crusade, which resulted in the sack of Constantinople in 1204, the conquest of large parts of the Byzantine Empire, and the foundation of the Latin Empire. He lost his final battle to Kaloyan, the emperor of Bulgaria, and spent his last days as his prisoner. Early life and family history
<mask> was the son of Count <mask> of Hainaut and Countess Margaret I of Flanders. When the childless Count Philip I of Flanders left on the last of his personal crusades in 1177, he designated <mask>, his brother-in-law, as his heir. When Philip returned in 1179 after an unsuccessful siege of Harim during a joint campaign on behalf of the Principality of Antioch, he was designated as the chief adviser of Philip Augustus by his sickly father, King Louis VII of France. One year later, Philip of Flanders had his protégé married to his niece, Isabelle of Hainaut, offering the County of Artois and other Flemish territories as dowry, much to the dismay of <mask>. In 1180, war broke out between Philip II and his mentor, resulting in the devastation of Picardy and Île-de-France; King Philip refused to give open battle and gained the upper hand, and <mask>, at first allied with his brother-in-law, Philip, intervened on behalf of his son-in-law in 1184, in

Philip then remarried, to Matilda of Portugal. Philip gave Matilda a dower of a number of major Flemish towns, in an apparent slight to <mask>. Fearing that he would be surrounded by the royal domain of France and the County of Hainaut, Count Philip signed a peace treaty with Philip Augustus and Count <mask> on 10 March 1186, recognizing the cession of Vermandois to the king, although he was allowed to retain the title Count of Vermandois for the remainder of his life. Philip died without further issue of disease on the Third Crusade at the siege of Acre in 1191, he was succeeded in Flanders by <mask> of Hainaut, although the two had been on seemingly uncordial terms since the 1186 treaty. <mask> thereupon ruled as <mask> of Flanders by right of marriage. When Countess Margaret I died in 1194, Flanders descended to her eldest son, <mask>. In 1186, the younger <mask> had married Marie, daughter of Count Henry I of Champagne, and Marie of France.The chronicler Gislebert describes <mask> as being infatuated with his young bride, who nevertheless preferred prayer to the marital bed. Immediately after this arrangement, the count of Hainaut's son <mask>, thirteen years old, received as wife Marie, the count of Champagne's sister, twelve years old, at Château-Thierry. This Marie began sufficiently young to

Her husband <mask>, a young knight, by chaste living, scorning all other women, began to love her alone with a fervent love, which is rarely found in any man, so that he devoted himself to his sole wife only and was content with her alone. The solemn rejoicing of the wedding was celebrated at Valenciennes with an abundance of knights and ladies and men of whatever status. Through Marie, <mask> had additional connections and obligations to the defenders of the Holy Land: her brother Henry II of Champagne had been King of Jerusalem in the 1190s (leaving a widow and two daughters who needed help to keep and regain their territories in Palestine). Marie's uncles Richard I of England and Philip II of France had just been on the Third Crusade.<mask>'s own family had also been involved in the defence of Jerusalem: his uncle Philip had died on Crusade. <mask>'s maternal grandmother was great-aunt of Queen Isabella I of Jerusalem and the counts of Flanders had tried to help Jerusalem relatives in their struggle. <mask> wanted to continue the tradition.

Isabelle had died in 1190, but King Philip still retained her dowry, on behalf of Isabelle's son, the future Louis VIII of France.The eight years of <mask>'s rule in Flanders were dominated by his attempts to recover some of this land. After Philip II of France took <mask>'s brother, Philippe of Namur, prisoner, <mask> was forced to agree to a truce to ensure his safety. The Treaty of Péronne was signed in January 1200 on the condition that <mask> receive the territories he had won during the war. <mask> was made the vassal of Philip II, and the king returned portions of Artois to <mask>. In this fight against the French king, <mask> allied with others who had quarrels with Philip, including kings Richard I and John of England, and the German King Otto IV. A month after the treaty, on Ash Wednesday (23 February) 1200 in the town of Bruges, <mask> took the cross, meaning he committed to embark on a crusade. He spent the next two years preparing, finally leaving on 14 April 1202.As part of his effort to leave his domains in good order, <mask> issued two notable charters for Hainaut. One detailed an extensive criminal code, and appears to be based on a now-lost charter of his father. The other laid down specific rules for inheritance. These are an important part of the legal tradition in Belgium. <mask> left behind his two-year-old daughter and his pregnant wife, Countess Marie.

Meanwhile, desperate for funds to support themselves and pay for their expenses, the leaders of the Fourth Crusade were persuaded to diverted to Constantinople in large part due to the exiled Byzantine prince Alexios (future Emperor Alexios IV Angelos) who promised them supplies and money in return for their help in ousting his uncle Emperor Alexios III Angelos, and freeing his father Isaac II Angelus. In April 1204, after numerous negotiations attempting to obtain the promised funds from the Byzantines, the Crusaders conquered the most powerfully protected city in the world. Stunned at their own success and unsure of what to do next, the leaders adopted a similar track as their forefathers had during the First Crusade. They elected one of their own, <mask> of Flanders as emperor (of what modern historians refer to as the Latin Empire) and divided imperial lands into feudal counties. Latin emperor

The imperial crown was at first offered to Enrico Dandolo, Doge of Venice, who refused it.The choice then lay between <mask> and the nominal leader of the crusade,

While Boniface was considered the most probable choice, due to his connections with the Byzantine court, <mask> was young, gallant, pious, and virtuous, one of the few who interpreted and observed his crusading vows strictly, and the most popular leader in the host. With Venetian support he was elected on 9 May 1204, and crowned on 16 May in the Hagia Sophia at a ceremony which closely followed Byzantine practices. During his coronation, <mask> wore a very rich jewel that had been bought by Byzantine Emperor Manuel I Komnenos for 62,000 silver marks. <mask>'s wife Marie, unaware of these events, had sailed to Acre. There she learned of her husband's election as emperor, but died in August 1204 before she could join him. The Latin Empire was organized on feudal principles; the emperor was feudal superior of the princes who received portions of the conquered territory: in October 1204 he enfeoffed 600 knights who occupied lands formerly held by Greek nobles.His own special portion consisted of the city of Constantinople, the adjacent regions both on the European and the Asiatic side, along with some outlying districts, and several islands including Lemnos, Lesbos, Chios and Tenos. The territories still had to be conquered; first of all it was necessary to break the resistance of the Greeks in Thrace and secure Thessalonica. In this enterprise in the summer of 1204, <mask> came into collision with Boniface of Montferrat, the rival candidate for the

 empire, who received a large territory in Macedonia with the title of king of Thessalonica. Boniface hoped to make himself quite independent of the empire, to do no homage for his kingdom, and he opposed <mask>'s proposal to march to Thessalonica. The antagonism between Flemings and Lombards aggravated the quarrel. <mask> insisted on going to Thessalonica; Boniface laid siege to Adrianople, where <mask> had established a governor; civil war seemed inevitable. An agreement was effected by the efforts of Dandolo and Count Louis I of Blois.Boniface received Thessalonica as a fief from the emperor, and was appointed commander of the forces which were to march to the conquest of Greece. During the following winter (1204–1205) the Franks prosecuted conquests in Bithynia, in which Henry, <mask>'s brother, took part. But in February the Greeks revolted in Thrace, relying on the assistance of Kaloyan, tsar of Bulgaria, whose overtures of alliance had been rejected by the emperor. The garrison of Adrianople was expelled. <mask> along with Dandolo, the count of Blois, and Marshal Villehardouin, the historian, marched to besiege that city. The Frankish knights were defeated (14 April 1205); the count of Blois was slain, and the emperor captured by the Bulgarians (see Battle of Adrianople). Captivity and death
For some time <mask>'s fate was uncertain, and in the meanwhile Henry, his brother, assumed the regency.Not until the middle of July the following year was it ascertained that he

It seems that he was at first treated well as a valuable hostage, but was executed by the Bulgarian monarch in a sudden outburst of rage, perhaps in consequence of the revolt of Philippopolis, which passed into the hands of the Franks. According to a Bulgarian legend, <mask> had caused his own downfall by trying to seduce Kaloyan's wife. The historian George Acropolites reports that the Tsar had <mask>'s skull made into a drinking cup, just as had happened to Nicephorus I almost four hundred years before. Tsar Kaloyan wrote to Pope Innocent III, reporting that <mask> had died in prison. A tower of the Tsarevets fortress of the medieval Bulgarian capital, Veliko Tarnovo, is still called <mask>'s Tower; supposedly, it was the tower where he was interned.It was not until July 1206 that the Latins in Constantinople had reliable information that <mask> was dead. His brother Henry was crowned emperor in August. Back in Flanders, however, there seemed to be doubt whether <mask> was truly dead. In any case, <mask>'s other brother Philip of Namur remained as regent, and eventually both of <mask>'s daughters, Joan and Margaret II, were to rule as countesses of Flanders. Twenty years later, in 1225, a man appeared in Flanders claiming to be the presumed dead <mask>. His claim soon became entangled in a series of rebellions and revolts in Flanders against the rule of <mask>'s daughter Jeanne. A number of people who

He has served as 3-year Senator term since his appointment to the Cabinet from July 2018 to July 2021. He is the founder and serving President of Malaysian Advancement Party (MAP). He is also known as a key leader of Hindu Rights Action Force (HINDRAF). Early life and education
<mask> was born on 16 July 1966 to <mask> who was a first-generation immigrant. <mask> mentioned in his statement of claim that his parents sold their home to finance his studies in the United Kingdom. <mask> also stated that he was denied entry into a local university despite having all the requirements purely because he was an Indian origin.Legal career and activism
He is a Barrister from Lincoln's Inn and began his career as a lawyer in Malaysia in 1997. <mask>'s work involved public interest litigation relating to arbitrary arrests, unlawful deaths in police custody, extrajudicial killings; police abuse of detainees; denial of the grant of citizenship status to ethnic Indians born in Malaysia, forced conversion of ethnic Indians to Islam, unlawful demolition of Hindu Temples or places of worship; and denial of government compensation to ethnic Indian Estate/Plantation workers. Much of <mask>'s work was done pro bono due to a lack of public funds allocated to those areas of the law. He is well known among Malaysian Indians as one of the founders of HINDRAF and his domestic and international campaign to fight discrimination against Hinduism in Malaysia.

<mask> <mask> has led a campaign against demolitions and relocations of Hindu temples in Malaysia by private companies and the government. Examples of Hindu Temple demolitions and relocations in Malaysia include the Sri Kumaravel Hindu temple in Kampung Medan which had been relocated next to a sewerage tank in 2006, the Muniswarar Hindu temple in Midlands estate was demolished using the hammer in 2006, the Muniswarar temple in Seremban with a 100-year-old rain tree which was given notice for demolition in 2006, and the Sri Siva Balamuniswarar Hindu temple in Setapak of which Waytha was a devotee was demolished using bulldozers in 2006. Lawsuit against Britain
He sued and accused the British Government of "abandoning minority Indians to the mercy of majoritarian authoritarian government while granting independence on 31 August 1957".<mask> <mask> Ponnusamy sued the British Government to pay £1,000,000 to each Malaysian Indian for the "pain, suffering, humiliation, discrimination and continuous colonization". This extraordinary lawsuit had the backing and support from HINDRAF. Just as Malaysia was celebrating its 50th Independence on 31 August 2007, <mask> <mask> led a team of lawyers to file a 4 trillion pound lawsuit against the British Government. "After a century of slaving for the British, the colonial government withdrew after granting independence and they left us unprotected and at the mercy of a majority authoritarian government that has violated our rights as minority Indians," said <mask> after filing the suit. Arrested
On 30 October 2007, <mask> <mask> and other members of HINDRAF — M. Manoharan, P. Uthayakumar and V. Ganabatirau, were arrested at 11:00 p.m. and detained until 8:00 a.m. the following morning for taking part in a demonstration against the demolition of a Hindu Shrine in Kuala

 Lumpur. Because of this "unlawful arrest" which is quickly refuted by Chief of Malaysian Police at  that time, lawyers are seeking 85 million Malaysian Ringgits in compensation, with Manoharan, Uthayakumar and Ganapathy Rao seeking 20 million while <mask> <mask> is seeking 25 million. He was arrested again on 23 November together with P. Uthayakumar and V. Ganabatirau, this time on sedition charges.All three were granted bail, but <mask> refused bail as a sign of protest. But on 26 November, the court discharged <mask> <mask>, Uthayakumar and Ganapathy Rao because "the prosecution had failed to adhere to Zunaidah's (the judge) instructions on Friday to attach the Tamil transcripts of the speeches to the charge sheet". The movement grew in numbers and on 25 November 2007, approximately 100,000 ethnic Indians joined HINDRAF in the peaceful 2007 HINDRAF rally based on Mahatma Gandhi's non-violent protest to highlight the plight of the marginalized Indian community in Malaysia. The government used tear gas and chemical-laced water at the protestors. Despite their peaceful manner, many participants were arrested by the authorities. Five Hindraf leaders were arrested and detained under Internal Security Act (ISA). International Campaign
<mask> <mask> left Malaysia on 26 November 2007 to obtain international support for HINDRAF's cause.He began with India and planned to proceed to London, Geneva, Brussels, Washington DC, New York and Atlanta. BERNAMA, the Malaysian national news agency on 3 January 2008 reported that <mask> <mask> said that the HINDRAF cause has been lost. This report was quickly denounced as false by <mask> and the report was met with public backlash. <mask> <mask> in his international awareness campaign to highlight the predicament of the marginalised Indian community worked with the UNHCR, the UK

To avoid <mask> <mask>'s campaign that can reflect the discrimination towards the Indian community that are contrary to the Federal Constitution, the Malaysian government revoked his International Passport in May 2008. <mask> was forced to seek protection from the UK government, which duly granted him asylum status under the 1951 Refugee Convention. On 1 August 2012, despite fears that he would face arrest and detention on return to Malaysia, he voluntarily returned to Malaysia.Immediately after his return, he invited the government to engage in talks on issues relating to human rights issues. On March 10, 2013, <mask> <mask> began a hunger strike to raise human rights issues. 21 days into his strike, then Prime Minister of Malaysia Najib Razak invited him for discussions, which led to the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between HINDRAF and the government in uplifting the socio-economic standing of the Indian community in Malaysia.

In August 2017, HINDRAF under the leadership of <mask> <mask> met with Chairman of Malaysian United Indigenous Party (BERSATU), Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad and initiated a working relationship with Pakatan Harapan (PH) coalition for the 2018 General Election (GE14). Mahathir in recognizing the importance of HINDRAF in its ability and to reach out to grassroots Indians in the semi-rural and rural areas officially accepted HINDRAF as an associate or strategic partner of PH. HINDRAF had managed to swing over 88% of the Malaysian Indian votes to the PH that lead to the historical defeat of BN in the GE14. In recognition of the HINDRAF contribution to PH success, <mask> <mask> was sworn in as a Senator on 17 July 2018 and appointed as the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department in charge of National Unity and Social Wellbeing under the new PH government administration under Mahathir's premiership.

Issues during ministership
ICERD in Malaysia
On 28 September 2018, after a 15-year absence from the United Nations, Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad made his return and repeated his call for a reform of the world body. Mahathir Mohamad in his speech in the 73rd Session of the General Assembly stated that the new Malaysia will firmly espouse the principles promoted by the UN in its international engagements. These include the principles of truth, human rights, the rule of law, justice, fairness, responsibility, and accountability, as well as sustainability. It is within this context that the new government of Malaysia has pledged to ratify all remaining core UN instruments related to the protection of human rights. It will not be easy for them because Malaysia is multi-ethnic, multireligious, multicultural and multilingual. They will accord space and time for all to deliberate and decide freely based on democracy.In line with the new aspiration, as Minister in Charge of Unity <mask> <mask> whose portfolio included National Unity Consultative Council had carried out a public stakeholder to views and gather input from the public that would be taken into consideration and used as guidance in formulating a National

 Unity Action Plan to outline strategies, policies and programs including appropriate Acts to strengthen and improve social unity, cohesion and reconciliation amongst all Malaysians. Amongst the areas visited in formulating the National Unity Action Plan including the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD). The commitment was also shown by the Minister in the Prime Minister's Department for Religious Affairs Datuk Mujahid Rawa and the Foreign Minister Datuk Saifuddin Abdullah and Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad at the United Nations General Assembly However, on answering the question on ICERD in Parliament on 19/11/2018, Minister <mask> <mask> was heckled and branded as "liar" and "racist" by the conservative opposition parties (most notably UMNO and PAS legislators) on the pretext of that he is intending to abolish the affirmative actions for the majority Malay community in the country. The above speculative position taken by the opposition to the ICERD was rebutted by the Minister in the Prime Minister's Department for Religious Affairs Datuk Mujahid Yusof Rawa stating that claims that the rights of the Malay community which was enshrined in the Federal Constitution, would be not be eroded should Malaysia ratify the treaty. Subsequently, an anti-ICERD rally was carried out by the opposition party UMNO and PAS on 8 December 2018. The demonstration that was organized by Malay-Muslim groups, PAS, and UMNO  to protest against ICERD — even though the Pakatan Harapan (PH) government has decided not to ratify it. Seafield Sri Maha Mariamman Temple
There was a pre-dawn attack of the 147-year-old Seafield Sri Maha Mariamman Temple in USJ25, Putra Heights where about 50 thugs assaulted several devotees and temple priests who were conducting prayers on 26 November

texts: 2018.The 2 am attack saw at least seven being held hostage at knifepoint. The thugs were wielding knives, axes, rakes, parangs, and wooden sticks, and barged into the temple compound before ordering all within to vacate the premises immediately. They shouted that they were here to take over the land on behalf of One City, the Developer. Initially, the Subang Jaya police declared the fight was between two rival ethnic Indian groups over the relocation of the temple. This later turned up to be not true. On 26 November 2018, four ministers and a deputy minister today chided the Subang Jaya police for issuing what they claimed was a false claim regarding the early morning fight at the Seafield Sri Mahamariamman temple. The ministers' response pertains to the statement by the Subang Jaya police regarding the clash in the wee hours of the morning, which was initially described as a fight between two ethnic Indian groups, stemming from the issue of the temple relocation.The false claim would have only further agitated the Indian community as the fight did not involve two Indian groups. "The statement was false and irresponsible. It has created much tension amongst the Indian community, especially in light of the late and ineffective response by the Subang Jaya police," Minister in the Prime Minister's Department <mask> read out from a joint statement in Parliament today. The other ministers who issued the joint statement are Human Resources Minister M. Kulasegaran, Communications and Multimedia Minister Gobind Singh Deo, Water, Land and Natural Resources Minister Xavier Jayakumar and Deputy Rural Development Minister Sivarasa Rasiah. <mask> <mask> called on Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Mohamad Fuzi Harun to immediately issue a corrective statement to set the facts straight.

<mask> (born September 15, 1972) is an American former journalist and paralegal. He worked for The New Republic from 1995 to 1998, until it was revealed that many of his published articles were fabrications. An internal investigation by The New Republic determined that the majority of stories he wrote either contained false information or were entirely fictional. <mask> later acknowledged that he had repaid over $200,000 to The New Republic and other publications for his earlier fabrications. Following the journalism scandal, <mask> pursued a career in law. Although he earned a Juris Doctor from Georgetown University Law Center and passed the bar exam in New York and California, he was unable to become a licensed attorney in either state over concerns derived from his scandal. <mask> instead found work as a paralegal at the law firm Carpenter, Zuckerman & Rowley, serving as the director of special projects and trial team coordinator.<mask> made a brief return to writing when he fictionalized his own story in his 2003 novel The Fabulist. The same year, the scandal was dramatized in the film Shattered Glass, which was based on a Vanity Fair article of the same name and starred Hayden Christensen as <mask>. Early life and education
<mask> grew up in a Jewish family in the Chicago suburb of Highland Park, and attended Highland Park High School. He graduated from the University of Pennsylvania as University Scholar, where he was an executive editor of the student newspaper, The Daily Pennsylvanian. His colleagues at The Daily Pennsylvanian included Sabrina Erdely, who later also became involved in a fabricated story scandal owing to her Rolling Stone article "A Rape on Campus" and Alan Sepinwall, currently the chief television critic for Rolling Stone. <mask> later graduated magna cum laude from Georgetown University Law Center with a Juris Doctor degree and was named John M.

While employed full-time at TNR, he also wrote for other magazines including Policy Review, George, Rolling Stone, and Harper's and contributed to Public Radio International's (PRI) weekly hour-long program This American Life, hosted by <mask> (no relation to <mask>). Although <mask> enjoyed loyalty from The New Republic staff, his reporting repeatedly drew outraged rebuttals from the subjects of his articles, eroding his credibility and leading to private skepticism from insiders at the magazine. The magazine's majority owner and editor-in-chief, Martin Peretz, later said that his wife had told him that she did not find <mask>'s stories credible and had stopped reading them. In December 1996, the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) was the target of a hostile article by <mask> called "Hazardous to Your Mental Health." CSPI wrote a letter to the editor and issued a press release pointing out numerous inaccuracies and distortions, and hinting at possible plagiarism. The organization Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.)accused <mask> of falsehoods in his March 1997 article "Don't You D.A.R.E." The New Republic defended <mask> and editor Michael Kelly demanded CSPI apologize to him. In May 1997, Joe Galli of the College Republican National Committee accused <mask> of fabrications in "Spring Breakdown", his lurid tale of drinking and debauchery at the 1997 Conservative Political Action Conference. A June 1997 article called "Peddling Poppy" about a Hofstra University conference on George H. W. Bush drew a letter from Hofstra reciting errors in the story. On May 18, 1998, The New Republic published a story by <mask> (by then an associate editor) entitled "Hack Heaven," purportedly telling the story of a 15-year-old hacker who had penetrated a company's computer network, then been hired by that company as a security consultant.

Adam Penenberg, a reporter with Forbes magazine, became suspicious when he found no search engine results for "Jukt Micronics," found that "Jukt Micronics" had just a single phone line, and saw that its website was extremely amateurish. Challenged, <mask> claimed to have been duped by "Restil."<mask> took Charles Lane, then lead editor of The New Republic, to the Bethesda, Maryland hotel at which Restil had purportedly met with the Jukt executives; Lane discovered that on the day of the claimed meeting the hotel's conference room had been closed and the restaurant where the hackers supposedly ate dinner afterwards closes in the early afternoon. Lane dialed a Palo Alto number provided by <mask> and spoke with a man who identified himself as a Jukt executive; when he realized that the "executive" was actually <mask>'s brother, who attended Stanford University in Palo Alto, he fired <mask>. Lane later said:

Aftermath
The New Republic subsequently determined that at least 27 of the 41 articles Glass wrote for the magazine contained fabricated material. Some of the 27, such as "Don't You D.A.R.E. ", contained real reporting interwoven with fabricated quotations and incidents, while others, including "Hack Heaven," were completely made up. In the process of creating the "Hack Heaven" article, <mask> had gone to especially elaborate lengths to thwart the discovery of his deception by TNRs fact checkers: creating a website and voice mail account for Jukt Micronics; fabricating notes of story gathering; having fake business cards printed; and even composing editions of a fake computer hacker community newsletter. As for the balance of the 41 stories, Lane, in an interview given for the 2005 DVD edition of Shattered Glass, said, "In fact, I'd bet lots of the stuff in those other 14 is fake too.... It's not like we're vouching for those 14, that they're true. They're probably not either." Rolling Stone, George, and Harper's also re-examined his contributions. Rolling Stone and

 Harper's found the material generally accurate yet maintained they had no way of verifying information because <mask> had cited anonymous sources. George discovered that at least three of the stories <mask> wrote for it contained fabrications. Specifically, <mask> fabricated quotations in a profile piece and apologized to the article's subject, Vernon Jordan, an adviser to then-President Bill Clinton.A court filing for <mask>'s application to the California bar gave an updated count on his journalism career: 36 of his stories at The New Republic were said to be fabricated in part or in whole, along with three articles for George, two articles for Rolling Stone, and one for Policy Review. <mask> also later wrote a letter admitting he fabricated the article he wrote for Harper’s, and the company retracted the story (the publication’s first retraction in 165 years). <mask> had contributed a story to an October 1997 episode of the NPR program This American Life about an internship at George Washington's former plantation, and another to a December 1997 episode about time he spent as a telephone psychic. The program subsequently removed both segments from the Archives section of its website "because of questions about [their] truthfulness". Later work
After journalism, <mask> earned a J.D. degree at Georgetown University Law Center. He then passed the New York State bar examination in 2000, but the Committee of Bar Examiners refused to certify him on its moral fitness test, citing ethics concerns related to his journalistic malpractice.He later abandoned his efforts to be admitted to the bar in New York. In 2003, <mask> published a so-called "biographical novel", The Fabulist. <mask> sat for an interview with the weekly news program 60 Minutes timed to coincide with the release of his book. The New Republic literary editor, Leon Wieseltier, complained, "The creep is doing it again. Even when it comes to reckoning with his own sins, he is still incapable of nonfiction. The careerism of his

texts: repentance is repulsively consistent with the careerism of his crimes." One reviewer of The Fabulist commented, "The irony—we must have irony in a tale this tawdry—is that Mr. <mask> is abundantly talented.He's funny and fluent and daring. In a parallel universe, I could imagine him becoming a perfectly respectable novelist—a prize-winner, perhaps, with a bit of luck." Also in 2003, <mask> briefly returned to journalism, writing an article about Canadian marijuana laws for Rolling Stone. On November 7, 2003, <mask> participated in a panel discussion on journalistic ethics at George Washington University, along with the editor who had hired him at The New Republic, Andrew Sullivan, who accused <mask> of being a "serial liar" who was using "contrition as a career move." A film about the scandal, Shattered Glass, was released in October 2003 and depicted a stylized view of <mask>'s rise and fall at The New Republic. Written and directed by Billy Ray, it starred Hayden Christensen as <mask>, alongside Peter Sarsgaard as Charles Lane, Hank Azaria as Michael Kelly, and Steve Zahn as Adam Penenberg. The film, appearing shortly after The New York Times suffered a similar plagiarism scandal with the discovery of Jayson Blair's fabrications, occasioned critiques of the journalism industry itself by nationally prominent journalists such as Frank Rich and Mark Bowden.<mask> was out of the public eye for several years following the release of his novel and the film. In 2007, he was performing with a Los Angeles comedy troupe known as Un-Cabaret, having earlier found employment at a small law firm, apparently as a paralegal. In 2015, <mask> again made the news after reportedly sending Harper's Magazine a check for $10,000 – what he was paid for the false articles – writing in the attached letter that he wanted "to make right that part of my many transgressions...I recognize that repaying Harper's will not remedy my wrongdoing, make us even, or undo what I did wrong. That said, I did not deserve

In 2009, <mask> applied to join the State Bar of California. The Committee of Bar Examiners refused to certify him, finding that he did not satisfy California's moral fitness test because of his history of journalistic deception.Insisting that he had reformed, <mask> then petitioned the State Bar Court's hearing department, which found that <mask> possessed the necessary "good moral character" to be admitted as an attorney. The Committee of Bar Examiners sought review in the State Bar's Review Department and filed a Writ of Review, thereby petitioning the California Supreme Court to review the decision. On November 16, 2011, the Supreme Court granted the petition, the first time in 11 years the court had granted review in a moral character case. On January 3, 2012, <mask>'s attorneys filed papers with the Court arguing that his behavior had been irreproachable for more than 13 years and this was proof that he had reformed. On November 6, 2013, the California Supreme Court heard arguments in <mask>'s case and ruled unanimously against him in an opinion issued January 27, 2014. The lengthy opinion describes in minute detail the applicant's history, record, the bar's applicable standard of review, the appeal, and its own analysis of how <mask> failed to satisfy the court's standards, concluding, "On this record, he has not sustained his heavy burden of demonstrating rehabilitation and fitness for the practice of law." On that basis, <mask> was denied admission to the California bar.Personal life
<mask> was married to lawyer and author Julie Hilden, who died in 2018. Published novels

In the middle of the road, he had to walk pass <mask>'s house in Mount Emily. Every time he walked towards the house, a Chinese boy selling grass jelly would run to <mask> 's house to tell her about the presence of her beloved hero. <mask> would then tease P.

Despite high polling numbers, Harris abruptly dropped out of the race in May 2002 because of ongoing campaign spending investigations.

Hanabusa was endorsed by EMILY's List, the local party establishment, and local labor unions. <mask> was at odds with the party establishment over his primary challenge to Akaka in 2006 when he was still Representative of the 2nd district. <mask> and Hanabusa each proposed that the other drop out for the sake of party unity. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) dispatched an aide to the state in the hopes of at least ensuring no other Democrats enter the race. It was unlikely either Democrat would drop out; they represented different views and had already faced off in a 2002 special election for Hawaii's 2nd congressional district, which <mask> won.On May 10, 2010, the DCCC said it would not spend any further resources on the race, preferring to save those resources for the November election. The election was held on May 22, 2010. Djou became the first Republican to win a Hawaii congressional election since 1988. He won with a plurality of 39% of the vote. Hanabusa came in second with 31%
