When Bella returned to Forks after running off to rescue Edward, Charlie was ticked off like crazy and he grounded Bella... for life! He knew there was more to the story than he was hearing, but he wasn't up to fighting for answers. There are some things that a dad just doesn't want to know. Besides, with Bella trapped in the house and 'the delinquent' (as Charlie began to refer to Edward) all-too-willing to keep her company, Charlie would have plenty of time to punish Edward and work on ending the kids' relationship.
Notes: Yes, this is a re-posting; and yes, I'm going to posting all of it this time around. Just in case you care... this story is written in 3rd Person Point-of-View. Omniscience is limited. If Twi humor isn't your thing... bite me.

Designated visiting hours. The expression carried the same institutional quality that words like imprisonment and life sentence had. Charlie hoped, at least, that they did. It also wouldn't hurt if they held connotations that might import a bodily threat to Bella's daily visitor. Something more on the line of death sentence... if you ever hurt her again.
Charlie took satisfaction in believing that placing Bella under house arrest meant might he could control Bella and Edward. Bella's apparent insistence that Edward visit her almost daily made Charlie feel like he was punishing Edward, too. Naturally, Charlie began to ponder other forms of punishment that could be inflicted on Bella's visitor without it being overtly apparent that Edward's discomfort was the main objective.
Charlie suspected that Edward's parents were too indulgent. Since neither they nor Bella seemed willing to rebuke Edward for his callous treatment of Bella last fall, Charlie felt that finding ways to torment the boy was his fatherly duty.
Edward choked back laughter. "Shhh! This isn't funny," Bella tensed and swatted at Edward.
On the screen, the helpless Marion Crane was preparing to take a shower. That meant that any second now Bella would start shrieking and scrambling around to hide behind Edward's back. The back belonging, of course, to the only murderer within, well, a few miles. "You're scared because there's a psycho on your TV, not because there is a vampire on your couch?" Edward found the humor in this little scenario so delightful that he brought a few Hitchcock movies over to Bella's so he... they... could enjoy them... again and again.
She murmured, "well, you are my vampire," emphasizing the possessive adjective.
Definitely. But Charlie had pulled into the drive and, considering Charlie's mood, Edward knew it would be better if Charlie didn't walk in when Bella was obviously distressed, even if fictional characters were the cause. Charlie seemed more than a little annoyed already, although that was his overall tone since Edward had returned to Forks. "Fortunately for you, Charlie's here, so I won't be tempted to demonstrate just how frightening I could truly be," Edward teased, sliding to the floor, where he sat at Bella's feet. It was hard to wipe the stupid grin he was wearing off his face.
Charlie opened the door stirring the dust and sending new scents into the room.
House cat! Edward mentally shouted. How the hell did I miss that! The cat's odor was a sharp contrast to Bella's strawberry-floral aroma and Charlie's cinnamon roll scent. (There were no doughnut shops in Forks.) Dang it! Too late to retreat. Edward groaned internally as the cat began to hiss, digging its claws into Charlie's jacket in its attempt to break free. It glared at Edward.
In the living room, Marion Crane was dying, but no one in the Swans' house was paying her any attention.
The scowl Charlie wore deepened momentarily, then vanished. "Whoa! He doesn't like you, does he?" Charlie broke the silence he generally maintained around Edward and grinned. Edward had never seen Charlie this happy about anything. Apparently the Fates had dropped an unconsidered form of torture right into Charlie's waiting hands.
"Maybe he knows he's in a house where NOBODY likes cats," Bella said leaping from the couch to place herself between Edward and either would-be attacker.
"I like cats," Edward whispered. "A lot." The scenario would have been amusing, but one of the downsides of feeding on fur bearing creatures was the presence of parasites. Not that they could harm a vampire, but the thought of even one flea biting Bella... Edward stared at the furious animal and stifled a growl of his own.
"Poor kitty. Seems sweet Isabella isn't going to welcome your company," Charlie cooed.
Bella turned to Edward and shrugged. "Perhaps I should be going," he said glumly.
Suddenly, Charlie yelped. A clawed paw had finally found a purchase on Charlie's neck. Reflexively, he yielded to the pain, freeing the cat. "Darn it. Come back!"
Edward's quick sidestep toward the kitchen and the backdoor appeared to occur almost simultaneously with the black streak flying toward the dim kitchen. Edward nearly collided with the terrified creature, which paused and arched its back. When it began to issue a low hiss, Edward cleared his throat and the cat ran under an arm chair. The beast dropped its head to the floor and glued its wide, fearful eyes on Edward.
Charlie muttered something that sounded like an expletive as he looked around and rubbed his neck; spying the cat, his smile returned.
"Okay, so where'd the cat come from?" Bella sounded cross.
"He belongs to one of the old guys that hangs out at the diner. Had some surgery on a foot or something. I'm going to drop the cat off at the vet's in the morning," Charlie stated as he removed his jacket and hung up his gun belt.
Charlie glanced at Edward, who had continued to move further from the cat. "What's a matter? Allergic?" Charlie's expression didn't reflect his glee. It was like he'd won a thousand dollars playing the lottery. "Hope not, " Charlie continued before Edward had a chance to reply. "Cause I'm thinking about getting a cat." Charlie touched his neck again and winced as he felt the oozing wounds.
Edward grimaced. Any cat would eventually find a way to escape the house just like this one was trying to do.
Charlie misinterpreted Edward's expression and tried to stoke the fire. Maybe getting a cat wouldn't be a bad idea. Almost as good as having a guard dog. "He's sure keeping his eyes on you."
Bella's kind nature had taken over and she had knelt down beside the chair speaking softly. "Here kitty, kitty. Don't be scared."
Preparing to defend itself, the cat shifted its weight; its muscles tensed as it hissed more forcefully.
"Ah, yeah. Allergic," Edward said as he moved toward the door. Allowing the cat to draw Bella's blood was not an option. Edward leaned into the screen door, opening it with his foot just enough to offer the cat a means of escape.
Catching Edward's move, Charlie barked, "Edward, don't let the cat out!" just as the cat launched itself across the floor.
Edward pulled the door closed briskly; the cat whirled and ran in the opposite direction. Finding the stairs, it sought the safety of the second floor.
"Maybe I should get its food and stuff out of the car," Charlie said. "Be right back." He directed the last sentence at Edward.
"Are you okay?" Bella asked Edward.
"I'm fine. Sorry though to scare the cat," Edward replied.
"Allergic?" Bella giggled quietly. Edward laughed too then stepped out on the front porch just as Charlie shut the cruiser door. Bella stood in the doorway behind Edward.
"Edward?" The sound was nearly inaudible.
Charlie watched her face fill with sadness. Her expression echoed the emptiness she'd worn for all the months the delinquent had been away. Crap! Charlie's happiness crumbled and he felt guilty for helping to create a situation that caused Bella pain.
Edward's discomfort was an entirely other matter, of course. It seemed somehow fitting that the presence of the annoying cat was an opportunity created through the generosity of Edward's father, Carlisle. Dr. Carlisle Cullen was known to be extraordinarily attentive to his patients. In the cat owner's case, that meant Dr. Cullen had remedied the fact the man lived alone without family to assist in his recovery by ordering extended hospital care, an unexpected financial expense that Dr. Cullen covered.
Charlie met Edward's stare at the same time Bella whispered his name again. That name turned in Charlie's gut. Aw, hell! Every time he looked at Edward something inside shouted alarm. Charlie consciously attempted to redirect that warning to Edward himself, so that it blared from Charlie's eyes.
"Edward," Bella said.
Charlie broke eye contact with Edward and looked at Bella again and then at the car. Well, idiot, she's standing there waiting for you to kiss her. The least I can do is give you---her---the chance. Charlie opened the car door and ducked his head inside, reaching for something.
Edward almost smiled and turned back to Bella.
Charlie looked up to see Bella place her arms on Edward's. She rose up on her toes. One one-thousand. Two one-thousand. Three one-thousand. Four one-thousand.
Bella's hand moved up and she leaned into Edward as Charlie's magnanimity evaporated and he slammed the car door as loudly as possible. He stomped back toward the house and onto the porch.
Edward thought that tonight, maybe it was his turn to take advantage of a situation someone else had created. He let his lips linger on Bella's forehead.
"Ah, er --- Edward, as you're leaving, check and make sure I didn't drop anything," Charlie's voice bristled.
"Sure, Charlie, glad to help," Edward said.
Charlie looked at Bella. She glared at Charlie, her face flush. Better grouchy Bella, than sad Bella, Charlie said to himself as his gaze shifted back to Edward. The young man seemed mildly entertained, but he also seemed to know that a snicker at this juncture would be misinterpreted by anyone who could hear it, particularly Bella.
"Good night, Bella. Charlie," Edward said as he walked away.
Bella stepped aside as Charlie entered the house and went into the living room. When he heard Bella close and bolt the front door, he turned off the light and peered through the blinds as Edward's car started. "Dad." Bella's turn to growl.
"Sorry to end your visit so early, Bells." Charlie exhaled sharply as he watched the car slide very slowly from the curb. He checked, from time to time, making sure that Edward really was leaving and that Bella was not following him away."Wanna catch a game?"
Bella didn't say a word, but tuned in ESPN and walked into the kitchen. Charlie could hear her opening the refrigerator. Charlie looked back toward the television. A jock blathered about up and coming college players.
"You could invite Edward to watch TV --- try to be a little nicer."
"I'm nice. When am I not NICE?" He said, grinding out the adjective.
"You know what I mean."
Bella was always beautiful, but when angered, she was staggering --- just like her mother. Renee had been an aberration. Charlie wanted her and their marriage just as much as he wanted anything; and he'd been sad, but not surprised when the relationship ended. Of all the things about his relationship with Renee that Charlie could miss, he had missed Bella the most. It pleased Charlie to know that she wanted to be here in Forks. Though Bella claimed the green moss and the fog had grown on her, Charlie knew that the boy was the motivation.
Bella put a plate in Charlie's hands. "I'm going to turn in," she said. "Maybe read a little."
Charlie squinted at the television screen. "Okay, Bells. Sleep well." He got an uneasy feeling on those evenings when Bella feigned tiredness and headed upstairs early. He always got the nagging feeling that things were happening of which he was unaware. Things like Bella sneaking out... or Edward sneaing in. Or maybe the ghost of all the nights he'd sneaked out when he was Bella's age had returned to haunt him. Still there was no denying the fact that occasionally, late at night, something would rouse him from his sleep making the hairs on the back of his neck stand up---just the way they did whenever Edward was present. Charlie often fought the urge to grab his sidearm and check the closets and spaces under the beds for boogiemen.
For a moment Charlie stopped breathing to concentrate on the muffled sounds of opening and closing of drawers, cabinets and doors. No monsters in the closet tonight. Charlie sighed.
Not yet. A thought countered Charlie's.
Charlie groaned. He'd rather think of Edward slipping into the house than of Bella creeping out. Even if Edward had the nerve and could get past Charlie, at least, Bella was home where she belonged and Charlie knew where she was. And Charlie was fairly certain that Edward would never to try to hurt Bella while Charlie was anywhere nearby. When Edward had broken Bella's heart last fall, he had waited until Charlie wasn't home.
Coward. Charlie seethed. Bella said it had all been a 'misunderstanding'. Charlie twisted the word in his mind and thought about the three days when Bella had disappeared. It was bad, but not as agonizing as all the months he'd watch Bella stumbling through life like she barely inhabited her own body. Edward would never appreciate the pain he'd caused. How could he?
Charlie recalled Edward holding Bella in front of the house, the day she returned. Charlie had rushed out of the house yelling. Edward stopped and stared at him. Edward looked awful. Not that he ever looked okay... too pale and he never ate. Anorexic? Edward just stood there cradling Bella like she was the most precious thing in the world. And Bella? Nestled in Edward's arms as if there were no place else she could possibly want to be. Charlie had demanded that Edward release Bella, attempting to drag her sleeping form from his arms, but Bella regained consciousness and fought the separation, struggling to remain in Edward's arms. Then when Bella tried to walk into the house on her own, she had fallen. From only a few feet away, Charlie watched as Bella dropped toward the concrete. If Edward hadn't reached out and caught her, she would have been injured. Charlie realized that he couldn't keep Bella from being hurt, no matter how near he might be.
So Charlie begrudgingly welcomed Edward's return and looked for any indication that Bella harbored pain or anger or that she no longer trusted Edward. But other than the sad expression that fleeting brushed Bella's face when Edward left each evening, it was as if nothing had changed. A stranger watching might never have guessed there had ever been a breach of faith between them, that the feelings they shared had never been tainted by longing and loss. While Bella was totally forgiving, Charlie most certainly was not.
Charlie observed Edward to be as attentive as ever, perhaps more so. He tolerated and appeared to abide by the restrictions upon Bella's time politely and respectfully. Whenever Charlie found an opportunity to shake Edward's hand, it was as cold as ever. Charlie chalked it up to nerves and he believed it gave him a gauge on Edward's level of comfort and, more importantly, fear.
Just then the cat crept down the stairs and into the living room. No longer agitated, it sniffed the bag Charlie had retrieved from the car. Charlie sought consolation in the earlier scene. "Let's get your dinner, kitty." Charlie wondered if the creature had a name. He reached down to stroke its head, the movement stretching the already granulating neck wounds. I forgive you, kitty. The cat purred. "Well, you like ME," Charlie said aloud, as his good mood mushroomed.
Charlie went to the kitchen and filled two bowls: one with water and one with dry food. He sat them down near the backdoor. Then, he checked the locks and headed upstairs with a few newspapers and a disposable tray of cat litter. He paused at the top of the stairs and looked around. Through the open bathroom door, he could see there wasn't enough room for the pan, especially with the pile of towels Bella had left in the floor after her shower. Maybe I left those there this morning, Charlie thought.
Charlie eyed the shadows that covered the floor near Bella's door. If Edward's slipping up the stairs and around in the dark, maybe he'll step in cat turds! Internally, Charlie rolled. He struggled not to laugh out loud as he thought about catching Edward with feces on his expensive sneakers.
Playing a hunch, Charlie had once asked a deputy on the graveyard shift to check the neighborhood for the kid's shiny Volvo. But there had been no sign of it anywhere. Nothing out of place. Sleepy little Forks tucked in all nice and tight.
Charlie made his way to his bed and stretched out. His mind began to drift over his day. Early in the morning, a member of the town council complained about a parking ticket he'd gotten in one of the few metered spots in town. Later, a social worker from the hospital had called to request someone check on the elderly cat owner's house. Courtesy visits on local homes and businesses were typical in a place like Forks.
Ah, Charlie sighed, his mind briefly holding the image of a new police cruiser sitting in his driveway. He yawned and drifted further into the image, toward the place where his favorite fishing pole sat waiting. The sounds of the river and a breeze ruffling the trees led Charlie away, ending another evening of Edward's self-flagellation.
Edward silently slipped through the window and into Bella's room.
A/N: In the next chapter, Charlie can't find his overnight guest; and it seems like everyone has something to hide.

Fabulous French Bread
(click here for printable version)
1 tbsp shortening
1 tbsp salt
2 tbsp sugar
1 cup boiling water
1 cup cold water
1/3 cup lukewarm water
1 tbsp active dry yeast
5 - 6 cup white all purpose flour
1 egg
1. Place the hot water in the microwave for 3 minutes to boil. While water is in microwave, dissolve the yeast into the 1/3 cup warm water. Stir until mixed and let sit until frothy.
2. Combine the salt, shortening, and sugar in the bottom of your mixer with a fork. The dough hook doesn't work very well. So just smash until mixture is completely combined and resembles fine crumbs. Pour the boiling water over the shortening mixture. Then pour the cold water over the same mixture. Then pour the yeast mixture into the mixer with everything else.
3. Turn on your mixer and begin to add the flour, one cup at a time, until the dough pulls away from the side of your mixer. Let the dough mix on high for 8 minutes. Turn off and let sit (in your mixer) for 20 minutes. (If you are in a hurry you can skip this step but I recommend not if you have the time)
4. Separate the dough into three parts and place on a large jelly roll pan sprayed with cooking spray. Let the dough sit for about 5-10 minutes. Letting it sit will make it MUCH easier to shape.
5. Using one section of dough at a time, shape each in to a loaf and place back on pan, seam side down. Repeat with the other 2 parts of dough.
6. Spray a sharp knife with cooking spray, my serrated one works the best. In a small bowl, whisk your egg until frothy. Cut three diagonal slits in the top of each loaf. Using a pastry brush, cover dough with the egg wash being sure to get it into all of the slits.
7. Place the loaves in a warm 170°F degree oven and let rise for about 15 minutes. Turn the oven up to 400°F degrees, leaving the loaves in while the oven increases in temperature. Once the oven has reached temperature, bake for 15 more minutes or until the loaves are golden brown and crusty. Turn the oven down to 350°F and turn the pan around in the oven. Bake for another 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely on cooling rack. Serve and enjoy!

Without a doubt, some animals have an awareness of life and death. One obvious example is the elephant. Even dogs and monkeys are known to grieve. There is something in the brain that registers those realities and humans are the only ones with verbal language to express their feelings of loss and grief.

Q&A: Is there a certain age a baby must be before it's safe to fly?
We are moving from Tennessee to Arizona two months after our baby is born. I was planning on flying with the baby and letting my husband drive out. Is there a certain age a baby must be before it is safe to fly? Will I hurt his ears if I fly too soon?
Though there are no absolute reasons to avoid flying with a very young baby, many practitioners advise being careful about bringing a newborn (less than 4 weeks) into contact with crowds, to avoid exposures to infections. Airplanes, large parties and crowded stores are all places where contact with people (or coughs and sneezes) are unavoidable. After 8 weeks or so, that concern lessens, though the immune sytem continues to strengthen during the first year and beyond.
With that in mind, two-month-old infants can otherwise fly without difficulty. If his/her ears are healthy, the pressure changes shouldn't cause harm. One way to help a baby equalize the pressure within the ears is to have him/her suck as the plane ascends and descends. This has the same effect as yawning or blowing through closed nostrils and makes those times more comfortable. Good luck with your new baby and location.

Flying Ghosts
I wanted to start the slew of Halloween crafts with something easy and fun for a wide range of ages. I always try to have crafts that can be changed ever so slightly to fit all ages in the family. My son loved this ! For older children I would have used glow in the dark paint and have them fill the ghost body in carefully with white crayon before gluing on the eyes. Then the craft would have been cool in the dark as well!
- Gather your materials. You will need black paper, white paint, a dish, a ghost cookie cutter, glue and googly eyes. I had the orange paper to make a back to frame it but the ghosts ended up too close to the edge and I didn't want to cut them.
- Pour the paint in the dish and dip your cookie cutter in.
- Print. Don't worry if some are wiggly- I think they make it look like the ghosts are flying.
- Add glue for the eyes
- Add the eyes.
- Dip your child's finger ( or your finger because and I quote" No mama you do it, I share my art project with you, your turn!" ) in the paint.
- Press on to make the ghosts mouths.
- Let dry.
Halloween Books!
I am looking for some tried and true Halloween books. Of all the schools I taught at only the last allowed any holiday reading and my favorites have already been featured. I want to hear about your children's favorites. Please send in the title , a very short description/review and your blog url and I will fit them into the Halloween crafts that will be coming up in the next month.

Residents in Apache Junction and other far East Valley and Pinal County cities began clean-up efforts after a storm front that moved through Sunday left raging flash-flood waters and deposited mud and debris in many yards and residences.
One to 2 inches of rain per hour fell on mostly saturated ground Sunday. Washes were already flowing at their banks.
Flooding in Apache Junction was primarily isolated to Weekes and Palm washes, according to Apache Junction Public Works Manager Shane Kiesow.
Widespread flooding also occurred near the vicinity of Tomahawk Road and Superstition Boulevard.
Overflows from Weekes Wash also sent large amounts of water down Palm Wash resulting in moderate street flooding from Idaho Road along 16th Avenue to Meridian Drive.
Private streets and properties within several mobile home parks from a west-southwesterly direction through the city were also impacted along Palm Wash, Kiesow said.
As of 11 a.m. Monday, all roads within Apache Junction were open except for Lost Dutchman Boulevard between Cortez and Goldfield roads. Lost Dutchmen Boulevard is planned to be open by early to mid-afternoon Monday.
Kiesow said crews noted significant pavement damage to Junction Street and Belaire Road. Those roads will remain open with temporary patching for now.
Several motorists were rescued in separate operations after the monsoon rolled through central Arizona on Sunday morning.
A woman was carried to safety after her vehicle got stuck in rushing waters near 83rd Street and Desert Cove in Scottsdale at about 12:15 p.m.
Just an hour earlier, Phoenix fire technical rescue units found a woman in her 70s trapped in her car in a wash near 4100 E. Fanfol Dr.
First responders said when they arrived, water in the wash started to subside and Phoenix firefighters reached the woman and carried her to safety.
Phoenix firefighters were also called to assist a trapped motorist at Shea and 64th Street. Rescue crews located a man in his 70s near his vehicle that flood waters had pushed 100 yards down the roadway. Crews launched a shallow water crossing and successfully reached him.
In Apache Junction, a vehicle carrying two men got caught in floodwaters at Goldfield and Lost Dutchman. The men were able to to scramble up a tree where they awaited a helicopter to airlift them to safety.
Elsewhere in Apache Junction, there were reports of three people trapped inside a home surrounded by water at 700 E. Chapparal.
The monsoon dumped about a half inch of rain and prompted he closure of at least two roadways.
Authorities shut down U.S. 60 in both directions between Kyrene and Mill roads in Tempe.
Flooding caused the closure of State Route 238 west of the Pinal County community of Maricopa.
Homes were flooded in the area of Scottsdale Road and Sutton, said Scottsdale Fire Captain David Folio. Firefighters are working with the city of Scottsdale Public Works Department and sandbags may be needed.
Areas north of Tucson also were seeing rain on Sunday. A flood advisory was issued for an area 15 miles southwest of Kearny.
The 2013 monsoon unleashed rain and high winds Saturday night, leaving an entire Arizona community without power.
All 358 residents in Crown King were thrown into the dark after high winds toppled a power line, according to Arizona Public Service officials.
Hundreds of other residents in Payson and Maryvale also lost power at the height of the storm, APS said.
A low pressure system off the Baja peninsula will continue to draw subtropical moisture into Arizona on Sunday. Be on the lookout for localized flooding.
There is a 50 percent chance of thunderstorms Sunday, dropping to 20 percent Sunday night. As of mid-morning Sunday, pop-up thunderstorms were already roaming parts of the Valley.
"With the additional clouds, higher humidity, and decent rain chances, highs will only top out in the 90s on Sunday," said CBS 5 meteorologist Jason Kadah.
If the high in Phoenix only hits 95 degrees Sunday, it would mark the first time since May 27 that a maximum high temperature this low has occurred.
In Tucson, crews from Northwest Fire rescued three kids from the Rillito River Saturday evening near La Canada and River Road.
Northwest Fire said crews responded to several calls of three kids caught in a flash flood.
When they arrived, they found them stuck on the sand bar and they were unable to get out.
Responders said the water was quickly rising, but the kids did the right thing by staying together.
The rescue team was able to bring all three back to the bank of the river without injury.
Around the state, some campgrounds at a section of the Apache Sitgreaves National Forest in east-central Arizona are being temporarily closed because of flooding and debris flow.
Forest officials said Friday that the Diamond Rock, Aspen and Deer Creek campgrounds are closed because of the continuation of monsoonal moisture.
The temporary order will be lifted after flood damage stops and a needed repair is done on a Forest Service road.
A few showers or storms are possible on Monday, but then some slightly drier air arrives for the middle and latter portion of the week, which means the best rain chances will be over the higher terrain, Kadah said.

text: B4BC T-Shirts at Tillys.comB4BC Background:Boarding For Breast Cancer (B4BC) is a non-profit, youth-focused education, awareness, and fundraising foundation. B4BC mission is to increase awareness about breast cancer, the importance of early detection and the value of an active lifestyle. B4BC INSPIRATIONThe inspiration for Boarding For Breast Cancer was a young woman named Monica Steward. Monica, who was a very dear friend of all B4BC founders, started her battle with breast cancer at the age of 26 and passed two years later from complications that arose from the disease.Boarding For Breast Cancer was founded as a result of Monica voicing her frustration about the lack of awareness among young women about the disease to friends and future co-founders, Tina Basich, Shannon Dunn, Lisa Hudson and Kathleen Gasperini. Their idea was to create an event that centered around their mutual passions, snowboarding and music, to communicate the message of awareness while raising money for research and educating young women about breast cancer. Monica Steward passed away a month later, just three months before her inaugural Boarding For Breast Cancer Snowboard + Music Festival event.The above information is from the B4BC website.


text: Stateside isn't a band for the faint of heart. Made up of Mike Tarry, Chip Su, Jeff Meiers, Phil Zepeda, and Jeff Zager, the group crafts explosive hardcore that raises the hackles. "Bridges Worth Burning" combines serrated guitars, thunderous drums, and the guttural heaving of Tarry for polyrhythmic, bipolar screamo you can feel in your solar plexus. Like singers Mike Patton and Chester Bennington, Tarry tempers his barbaric bellows with melodic, plaintive singing. On "The Eve" surging guitars and drums create a tempest over which Tarry moans, "I'm wasting away." But things aren't always so bleak. "Make Your Move" is a motivational anthem about the city that never sleeps wrapped up in roiling guitars and semiautomatic drums. Maybe lyrics like "Broadway's alive and calling me home" and hardcore make strange bedfellows, but even the devil gets to take a day off.

The Dow Jones industrial average hit the 14,000 mark Friday morning, the first time the stock market benchmark hit that milestone since October 2007.
The average broke 14,000 just after 10 a.m. but retreated below the milestone moments later.
The stock average shot about 135 points higher Friday morning after traders saw positive signs in a mixed U.S. jobs report.
The Dow's all-time high is 14,164.53, which it reached on Oct. 9, 2007. The index has more than doubled since falling to close at low of 6,547 on March, 3, 2009.
The Dow is an index of 30 big companies, and its purpose is to represent how the broader stock market is faring. It's more a representation of how traders are feeling about the economy than the economy's underlying fundamentals, but hitting 14,000 is still considered an important psychological milestone.
The Dow has gained 6.7 percent since the start of 2013.

It's lovely, picturesque, and seems very far away from the dangers of the outside world. There is a collective strength of spirit there that feels quite different from other campuses we visit. It's a big school … but it feels like a tight community. That spirit seems to endure long after students leave Blacksburg—once a Hokie, always a Hokie.

LANSING, MI (WTVB) - The Michigan Senate has unanimously approved a bill to keep the state's blood alcohol content to be considered drunk while driving the same.
The Senate has approved a measure to keep the level at point-zero-eight. In 2003, the state lowered the level to point-zero-eight from point-one and if the Legislature hadn't acted, the level would have gone back up to point-one in October. Alcohol blood content is used to determine if a driver is drunk. The bill will now head to Governor Rick Snyder's desk for approval. Without it, Michigan could lose an estimated fifty million dollars a year in federal highway funding

Canada's favourite truck has been given an overhaul - it's lighter, greener and tougher than ever
Ford has revealed an all-new version of the Canada's bestselling vehicle, the F-150 pick-up – and in a world first, the favourite boasts an all-aluminium body and lightweight, high-strength steel frame.
The new Ford F-150 is more than 300 kg lighter than the model it replaces and, thanks to four engine choices including an all-new downsized 2.7-litre EcoBoost turbo, is much more fuel efficient too.
Ford has also made sure this is the most tech-laden F-150 ever, while more than 16 million kilometres of testing should guarantee reliability and dependability.

Business Ideas in the News / July 7, 2014
You can't deny that pets are big business. In 2010 Americans spent more than 10 billion dollars on little fury four-legged child-replacements.
One company that is profiting from this trend is PetRelocation.com. They are a Autstin, Texas based pet relocation company. The company provides provides door-to-door pet transportation services for people relocating with their pets.
First off, why would you use a service to move your pet? Have you ever travelled with a child who get's car sick every fifteen minutes or so? At least he can tell you to pull over. Fido can't.
How it works: A security-screened drive pick up your pet at your home and then transport him to the airport in a climate controlled vehicle, where the animals will be given a going over by a veterinarian and offered a pre-flight treat. Once at the airport, PetRelocation.com will check your pet into his pet friendly flight and handle any customs paperwork for pet's relocating out of the country.
After the flight, your pet will be boarded, quarantined if required, and groomed, after which he will be delivered to your new front door in a climate controlled pet transporter (van).
Domestic moves start about $1000 and go up depending on the options you wouldn't expect Fido or Fifi to live without. International moves start at $2500.
According to the company, your pet moving expenses are a tax-deductible relocation expense when your relocation and move is for purposes of a change of employment.

It's a big day for the Kardashian klan. Not only is Kim engaged—and to Kris Humphries, whose name conveniently begins with a 'K'—but Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe just announced that they've written their first novel. Kim blogged, "We are releasing a novel with William Morrow and we want you to name it! The novel is based on our lives but we've added a lot of crazy fictional twists and turns. You'll have to decide for yourself which story lines are true to life, and which ones we dreamed up. LOL." That could make for a good drinking game.
But life gets even more exciting. Apparently, the sisters are holding a contest to name the book. Keep reading »

Customer comments about Jasper 86" Studio Sofa:
We have an awkwardly designed living room which is very long and narrowish (26'x 13'). One end has a fireplace that is not centered to the wall, but askew to one side. So, finding furniture placement to make the fireplace a focal point while using the long space behind the seating in front of the fireplace was a challenge. By using the studio sofa, essentially a couch without a back, I can create two seating areas where the Jasper is positioned in the middle; one side facing the fireplace and other facing a converation area. So, it works like a low scale divider with a clear eye line to the fireplace. And it is by far the best napping couch for two people that I have found so far. It works well in our home with some challenging design issues.
The sofa overall is well made, as often R&B pieces are. The fabric, though not uncomfortable, is not soft. It's a woven and may soften with use. The cushions are down wrapped and very comfortable. Since the cushion is one large piece that extends the length of the sofa, I'm concerned with it getting squashy in the middle. However, only time will tell. It meets the description on the website and I am please with my purchase.
Service and delivery comments:
Great delivery. The delivery men were very courteous and flexible about the furniture placement. The piece came wrapped in plastic and white foam wrap. The packaging arrived unscathed and the furniture was in new condition at delivery.

Customer comments about Jasper 71" Studio Sofa:
I have to say with all the rave reviews that brought us to Room and Board, I am left underwhelmed. The Jasper is certainly great looking, but every time you sit down it squeaks loudly... Considering that we bought it to provide a comfortable spot to relax and read in our master, the loud creaking whenever you shift positions is unfortunate.
Service and delivery comments:
The delivery team while lovely and polite, knocked a sconce right off the wall bringing the piece into the bedroom. They assured us someone would be out within the week to fix it. Two weeks later, we got a call from the repair guy to set a time for the following week. He came and his solution was to epoxy the fixture back onto the wall! Let's hope we don't have to rewire anything anytime soon!

Customer comments about Jasper 86" Studio Sofa:
We have a small condo 1/1 with a great long room to serve as the dining/living/entertaining space. We were low on dining chairs and needed a spare bed. The sofa we had wasn't leaving and so the idea of the studio sofa is perfect. It serves as seating for the dining table on one side, seating for the living room group on the other. Two people could sit back to back in a pinch! Lounging on it any time or as a spare bed for guests.
*NOTE* It is shy of the right height for dining chairs- I'll be making some cushions to seat our guests a little higher.
Service and delivery comments:
The delivery team was great. Their lead delivery guy was courteous, polite and prompt. The inability to pick your delivery time made it a little difficult but if it really keeps their costs down, so be it.
It was a simple set up with the one piece but they managed to take their shoes off at the front door and talked each other into the room so as not to damage walls or the sofa.

Customer comments about Jasper 86" Studio Sofa:
This daybed makes a great addition to my living space, balancing nicely with a modern leather sofa I already had. The cushioning is rather firm, but it is still comfortable to lay on to watch TV or sit on as part of a conversation group. The wood legs have a beautiful planar detail that is not very clear from the online images.
Service and delivery comments:
The delivery service was fantastic. The delivery men removed their shoes, brought the furniture in, installed the legs, explained how to care for the fabric, and were generally as courteous and professional as could be.

Inside Wall Street: Is Big Pharma eyeing Spectrum?
The profitable biotech's two cancer drugs could make it an attractive target.
For a little-known, small-cap biotechnology company, Spectrum Pharmaceuticals (SPPI) boasts of two anti-cancer drugs that have produced healthy earnings -- and, not surprisingly, attracted the attention of some U.S. and foreign-based drug makers.
The stock rose to a high of more than $17 a share in July of last year from a low of $7.07 in October 2011, though it has since pulled back to around $11.60.
Some biotech investors view Spectrum not only as a growing young biotech but as a potential takeover target and see this pullback as an opportunity to jump in.
"We have been getting inquiries from some Big Pharma companies, including foreign drug makers, most particularly from Japan and Europe," says one executive who preferred not to be identified.
One large Japanese pharmaceutical company, he adds, has expressed more interest in Spectrum than the other potential suitors. Spectrum Chairman and CEO Dr. Rajesh C. Shrotriya, however, declined to comment on rumors that any pharmaceutical companies have made inquiries about a buyout deal.
Some analysts put the value of Spectrum based on its products on the market and drug pipeline alone at $20 to $28 a share. And some investors believe the company could be a very attractive acquisition target for the likes of Abbott Laboratories (ABT), Merck (MRK), and Pfizer (PFE).
In just 10 years, the well-managed Spectrum has grown quickly into a profitable biotech with two cancer drugs, Fusilev and Zevalin, already on the market, and another 10 oncology drug candidates in clinical development -- two of them in phase 3 clinical trials and others undergoing phase 1 and 2 clinical studies.
Spectrum acquires, develops and commercializes mainly oncology and urology drug candidates. It turned profitable in 2011, earning $48.5 million, or 84 cents a share, on sales of $192.9 million.
Fusilev, which is indicated for the treatment of osteosarcoma and colorectal cancer, is the big revenue driver for Spectrum, accounting for 78% of the company's total sales. And sales of Zevalin, aimed at treating non-Hodgkin lymphoma, have also been on the rise.
"We expect Spectrum to continue to grow the Fusilev franchise at least over the next several quarters, and to put the pieces in place to potentially grow the market for Zevalin," as well as continue to maintain a strong balance sheet, says Joseph Pantginis, analyst at Roth Capital Partners. He rates the stock a "buy" with a 12-month price target of $28 a share.
He notes that Fusilev has continued to enjoy "increasing product revenue growth and market share ticking upwards." The positive results were initially the result of a shortage in the generic leucovorin, a rival drug, but that has changed, says Pantginis, after the Food and Drug Administration approved Fusilev for use in colorectal cancer patients.
The analyst figures Spectrum will earn $1.59 a share in 2012 on estimated sales of $273.2 million. "We believe the new sales and marketing efforts at Spectrum will be instrumental in continuing to drive the Fusilev franchise forward," says Pantginis, along with that of Zevalin.
Adrian Butt, analyst at RBC Capital Markets, who rates Spectrum as "overweight," continues to believe that the risk-reward on the stock is favorable at current levels, and that its current valuation "reflects potential floor levels." Shares of Spectrum could appreciate further, he argues, as long as Fusilev sales stay above $25 million per quarter. Right now, he estimates Fusilev sales in the fourth quarter of 2012 at $45 million to $50 million.
Spectrum has an "impressive pipeline for a company its size," notes Edward White, managing director and analyst at investment firm Laidlaw & Co., who rates the stock a buy. Spectrum's market capitalization has ballooned to $757 million from just $300 million about three years ago.
"We believe that Spectrum is undervalued compared to its peers," he says, especially when considering that none of its small-cap biotech peers have two marketed products or a pipeline of 10 diverse drugs.
Meanwhile, Spectrum has been busy in the M&A front, as well. It's in the process of acquiring Allos Therapeutics, whose drug, Folotyn, is a small-molecule therapeutic for cancer. Spectrum has also signed an exlcusive collaboration with Allergen (AGN), a technology-driven global health care company, to develop and commercialize Apaziquone, an agent aimed at the treatment of non-muscle bladder cancer.

If I stick my shoe underneath I can get it to come back up to the normal position. Is it possible there's just a simple adjustment - could something have suddenly slipped? thanks

Toy Glass Marbles are imported from Mexico and are sold in bags of 30 marbles. They are marbled with bright swirling
colors and most varieties are opaque. The marbles are spherical, not flat like glass gems, and the size is
approximately 9/16" (16mm). Size can vary by manufacturer batch, +/- 20%. (Some batches run large, while others run small.)
For mosaic work, the marbles are best used in mosaic stepping stones
and other applications where the pieces are pressed into wet concrete, although the marbles should be pressed in
securely flush with the surface and not used in excess quantities to avoid a slip hazard. The marbles can be glued
to a flat surface, but a thick and tarry adhesive like Liquid Nails brand or thinset bonding mortar (sticky concrete)
would be needed so that the marbles don't slip out during grouting. You would also need to make sure that your other
tiles were about as thick as the marbles or use thinset to account for the differences in tile thickness.
We discourage cracking marbles because it generates too much waste, and the pieces can be quite sharp.
*Keep in mind that these aren't officially certified by the manufacturer as building material, but they are inert glass, and
should be durable for use anywhere glass tile could be used.
Use our Quick Order Checklist to order rapidly using a list.
For advice on how to glue and grout these mosaic tiles, please see our Mosaic FAQs or our Online Mosaic Instructions Guide.

KANSAS CITY – In their second meeting of the season, the Shock came away with a last second victory on a missed field goal by the Command by a final score of 49-48.
The recently struggling Kansas City offense continued to have issues, opening the game with a turnover on downs, giving way to a six yard touchdown reception by Shock wide receiver Adron Tennell. After then missing on a field goal attempt on their second drive, the Shock went 46 yards in 8 plays and score again on a Tennell reception.
Spokane held a 28-21 lead at the half.
Kansas City hit its stride late, and in the fourth quarter Command quarterback Matt Guiterrez hit a streak of 7 straight passes with two touchdowns and no interceptions as Kansas City went on to take a one point lead over Spokane with just over six minutes remaining in the game.
With two minutes and 42 seconds left, the Shock failed to convert a 4th down conversion and Kansas City took over on downs at the Spokane 16 yard line, giving the Command a chance to add to their one point lead. Kansas City proceeded to wisely use the clock and worked their way down field to score with 53 seconds remaining. After a missed PAT, Spokane trailed by 7 points.
Just 41 seconds later Rowley found Jeffrey Solomon in the back of the end zone for his first touchdown of the game. Trailing by one, the Shock elected for go for the two point conversion to seal the game. Rowley connected again with Jeffrey Solomon on a comeback route in the front left corner of the end zone to take the lead 49-48 with 12 seconds left.
Spokane held Kansas City to a field goal attempt from 47 yards that hit the upright and bounce into the Shock's hands to end the contest by a final score of 49-48.
Rowley completed 32 of 52 attempts for 320 yards and 7 TDs. Tennell led the Shock with 11 receptions for 101 yards and 3 TDs. With Tennell's performance this week he set a new franchise record for single season receptions, single season receiving yards, and tied the single season receiving TD record currently held by former Shock wide receiver Huey Whittaker. Patrick Stoudamire led defensively with 7 total tackles as Paul Stephens added 4 total tackles and one interception.
Kenny Spencer also had a record night for the most PAT's made in a single season.
