Attendance rebounds at Windham schoolsStaff Report | January 29,2013BRATTLEBORO — School attendance rebounded Tuesday in the Windham Southeast Supervisory Union a day after news of an unexplained potential threat caused nearly half of its 2,500 students to stay home.
Educators — learning from authorities that "a person who had previously made nonspecific threats regarding school-age people might be returning to the area" — decided to robocall families in Brattleboro, Dummerston, Guilford, Putney and Vernon Sunday to report schools in their towns would lock all doors to outsiders Monday.
The recording's last-minute nature and lack of specifics alarmed many parents still reeling from last month's school shootings in Newtown, Conn. But after a full day of news reports explaining the situation, nearly 95 percent of students returned to classes Tuesday.
"We're going to maintain our security precautions," said Windham Southeast Superintendent Ron Stahley, noting schools would continue to work with police to ensure a general sense of safety.MORE IN This Just InStaff Report Full StoryStaff Report Full StoryThe Associated Press Full Story

TULSA, Okla.-Two weeks after taking on the field in one of the oldest and largest cross country meets in Stillwater, the ORU cross country teams will travel to Fayetteville, Ark., for the 2012 Chile Pepper Invitational, another one of the largest meets of the year.
Approximately 50 teams will take to Agri Park in Fayetteville, with the men's 10K race beginning at 9:45 a.m. with the women's 6K race starting at 10:30 a.m.
Last time out, several Golden Eagle runners set season and personal bests, despite a tough course at the Cowboy Jamboree. In three races so far this season, Samantha Watson has led the team in every race, followed in order by Erin Roberson, Casady Ashcraft, Megan Denzin and Marrisa Thomas.
The men's side has not been as clear, with freshman David Batchelder leading the way in a pair of races. Jonathan Harper finished second in those two, but got the best of the duel in the second race of the season. Ryan Masey and Leif Peterson have also battled for the third spot, with Peterson getting the better of the matchup twice, but Masey finishing higher in the most recent competition.
Results from Saturday's race will be posted at www.ChilePepperFestival.org, as well as www.ORUGoldenEagle.com.

After successfully completing the first year of required coursework in the PharmD program at MCPHS, students will earn a Bachelor of Science degree from Worcester State. The first three years at Worcester State offer a blend of liberal arts and sciences that meet both the MCPHS general education curriculum requirements and the specific science track requirements at Worcester State. Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Science provides the coursework needed for the student to earn the Bachelor of Science degree from Worcester State at the end of the first year of professional study, as well as the professional education required to earn the Doctor of Pharmacy degree at the end of three years at MCPHS.

Unless you're in the jewelry business, you probably don't know much about diamonds. That is of course, aside from watching Blood Diamond starring Leonardo DiCaprio, which by the way, was a wonderful movie. If you're reading this then I've got to think that you're researching the matter for good reason, probably because you're thinking about getting married. I'll reserve any biased feelings regarding the matter and tell you that as long as you're sure about it, then proceed with caution regarding the ring buying experience. There are wolves in sheep's clothing in every business out there and unfortunately, the diamond business is no different. The last thing that you want to do is get ripped off on something that you spent thousands of dollars on. And, if you feel the way you should about the woman you're giving it to, you need to perform your due diligence and make sure that she's getting nothing less than the best. There are four relevant factors that you need to take into consideration when shopping for engagement rings and coincidentally, they all start with the letter "C". Let's start with the cut of the diamond: If the diamond isn't cut properly then it's simple, you don't want it. Now, let's move onto the next "C" on the list; Clarity. If the diamond you're looking at is anything less than what you would consider crystal clear than again it's simple, you don't want it. Onto the next "C" on the list; Color. There are varying degrees of yellow present in diamonds and slight differences between grades are very difficult to detect. You pretty much want as little yellow as possible present in the stone, simple as that. The last and final "C" is easy to understand and as long as the previously mentioned "Cs" check out, then this is the only one left to worry about. The carat of the diamond is obviously important because it relates to it's size. If you were going to buy a house, there are a lot of things that you'd want to know about it in order to assess it's value. So, much like a house, the size of the diamond is one of the most important things to know when appraising or assessing the value of a diamond ring. These are all very basic things to know about diamonds, but only experienced and honest gemologists truly understand how to properly grade and price a stone. You can think you know everything there is to know now after learning the four "Cs" but unless you have a lot of experience, or at least a frame of reference, you won't really have any clue what you're actually dealing with. That's why it's important to deal with a jeweler who has a good reputation, and don't just take one person's word for it, talk to as many people about it as you can without muddling or overwhelming yourself with the process. We all have people in our lives who's judgment we trust, make sure you pay particularly close attention to those people when making a decision of this magnitude.
Time To Shop For Engagment Rings
There is a way to Get Adult Novelty Products and Sex Toys, without Going to an Adult Bookstore.
Millions of Americans use adult products, but most people still get embarrassed when purchasing them. One reason for this is the fact that you have to go into an adult bookstore. Needless to say, those establishments do not always have the best reputation, with the general citizenry. Fortunately, there is a way to get all of the adult novelty products and sex toys that you want, without going to an adult bookstore. As a matter of fact, there are a couple of ways, though they both involve the same source. All in all, it is best to get your sex toys and other adult merchandise from a reputable catalog that specializes in that type of thing. Firstly, they will undoubtedly have the best selection and the best quality products. Secondly, they will be shipped to you discreetly, so you do not have to deal with any awkwardness. Finally, since you are getting these products in the most professional way possible, you will be able to make the most informed decision possible. The catalog itself or its customer services representatives can help you understand the function of each product. After all, everyone is different and has different taste. That is why there are so many different kinds of sex toys and adult products. The second way in which the catalogs can supply you with your adult products is by going to a sex toy party. A sex toy party is simply a gathering in which a representative from the company comes to your home. She then explains to you and your friends how various different products work and what they are for. These sex toy parties benefit everyone involved. The host of the party gets to receive free merchandise, and everyone else gets a free lesson about all the different kinds of adult products that are available. Of course, the representative from the company actually gets paid if she sells any products, which is why a lot of women who attend these parties end up becoming representatives, themselves. At the end of the day, these parties may be the best way of all to go about learning about sex toys and obtaining them. You will get the best products, and you will get the best deals on them. Most importantly, though, you will have just learned about the products, so you will be able to get the most out of whatever you bought. Of course, some adult products are meant to be brought into the bedroom with your significant other, while others are meant just for you. Lingerie, for instance, is something for both you and your partner to enjoy. When it comes to lingerie, you have a lot of different options. There are nightgowns and other things that are more reserved, but still sexy. If you are feeling more adventurous, there are also some more revealing lingerie. At the end of the day, it all just depends on what you like. These items are also available at the sex toy parties.
Organic food delivery services helps couple trying to get pregnant
Tonya was incredibly excited to start having children. She and Tom had been married for about three years when they decided it was time to start trying. She had recently visited her primary care doctor as well and when she told him that they were going to start having kids, he recommended a couple of things. Tonya had put on a bit of weight since they had gotten married, and her doctor wanted her to lose some of it to increase her chances of both getting pregnant and having a healthier pregnancy than starting out overweight. It had not occurred to her, since she figured she was going to be putting on weight with a pregnancy anyway, that she might need to lose weight before getting pregnant. But he told her that the research showed that the healthier you are when you get pregnant, the better results will come out of a healthy pregnancy.
She went home and told Tom the news. He too had put on a few pounds, and agreed with the doctor's recommendation that it would be good for both of them to lose some weight, or at least begin more healthy habits so that they could keep them up during the pregnancy. She was disappointed in general, but realized if they could work hard for about three months and lose some of the weight, that it would not postpone the pregnancy for too long. They began looking into a healthy online grocery shopping service that would allow them to get organic produce and groceries delivered right to their door when they needed them. Tonya and Tom would also add in more exercise, with regular walks, some light weights, and eventually work up to jogging. Tonya used to like to swim, so she was hoping to incorporate that back into her routine as well. Between the additional exercise added and the organic food delivery service they had been using, they both quickly dropped about fifteen pounds, and felt ready to start trying to get pregnant.
It did not take too long, and within a couple of months, Tonya found out that indeed, she was pregnant! They were thrilled, and they had actually kept up their healthy habits and had continued to lose some weight. She knew she was going to gain weight again now that she was pregnant but she hoped to do so while keeping up her healthy habits, and to not gain more than she absolutely had to. Her doctor was pleased with her performance and encouraged them to continue their healthy eating habits and exercise throughout the pregnancy, and afterwards. Tonya was so pleased, knowing that she felt better and looked better and would be able to give her baby all the nutrients and minerals it would need to grow healthy.
Nine months later, Tonya gave birth to a very healthy baby girl, without gaining more weight than she needed to. She had gained just the right amount, and now that the baby was born, she would focus on losing some of that weight again. This time around she knew how to do it!
You May want to Take Your Car in for a Tune Up.
If you want your car to last, you have to take good care of it, and a big part of taking care of your care is keeping up with all of the regular maintenance that is recommended. If it has been a long time since you have been to an auto mechanic, you may want to take your car in for a tune up. A tune up is just a general adjustment of some basic components of the vehicle. This can also be an opportunity for them to perform diagnostic tests, to determine if anything is wrong with your vehicle. If there is, you can decide how to handle it. Not all problems are severe and need to be dealt with right away. Of course, some of them are, and it is important to have a trustworthy mechanic to explain the situation to you. Clearly, there is no way to guarantee that your car will never have a problem, but you can substantially reduce the likelihood of unexpected car troubles, by keeping up with regular maintenance. You should never be lax, when it comes to taking care of your vehicle, as waiting too long for a necessary repair could end up costing you a lot more. First and foremost, you need to remember to get an oil change as often as is recommended. Getting your oil changed regularly helps to ensure that your car will run smoothly in the future. If you wait too long, you may be allowing to much friction to occur between various parts in your vehicle. That is why cars that have had their recommended oil changes last longer than cars that were neglected, in terms of oil changes. If your car is older, it is even more important that you remember to get the oil changed regularly. When it comes to routine and simple repairs and maintenance, such as oil changes, you should try to find a mechanic who can do the work quickly. There is no sense in waiting a long time for a simple oil change. On the other hand, you also need to be sure that the auto repair shop that you are patronizing is reputable. Obviously, you need mechanics that you can trust. Though oil changes are the most important regular maintenance procedure to remember, you also need to keep up with a bunch of other stuff. Remember to rotate your tires, for example, is extremely important. The reason you must remember to get your tires rotated is the fact that tires wear down over time. When you fail to rotate your tires, all of the wear occurs in one spot. This is dangerous because creates the perfect conditions for your tires to pop. By rotating them, you allow the wear to be distributed evenly. That way, your tires will last as long as possible. If your wheels are the problem, they may need to be realigned. Wheel alignment problems can occur, as a result of roads not being even or going over the curb too often.
Water Gardens And Pond Supplies Go Hand-In-Hand
So, if you've decided to transform your outdoor space into a place where you can enjoy yourself, then you've obviously got some decisions to make. Grass is boring, so many people just put in grass, some rocks and then plant a couple trees and then think they're doing what they can to make their backyard a happy place. I'm sure that we all have different priorities because we live different lives, but I truly believe that everyone is capable of being creative. If you've got active children, then maybe grass, some rocks and just a couple trees is the best thing for you, but if you want to step outside that box for a moment, there are some things that I want you to consider. Have you ever been to a place like the Denver Botanical Gardens? If you don't live in Denver, then I understand that you most likely haven't been to the spot I just mentioned, but what I'm trying to describe is like an outdoor water garden. It's a very popular thing to do with outdoor spaces in countries like Japan, but it's not something that you necessarily see all that much in the US. A water garden, usually consists of wet, green foliage and a combination of running and standing water. Often, you'll see lily pads, frogs, fish and man-made design features incorporated, like maybe a miniature watermill or something like that. So, if you close your eyes and put together all of those pieces and take a deep breath, how does it make you feel? I may have not done a very good job of describing some of the water gardens I've seen, but I hope I gave you enough to envision what I'm talking about in a general sense. If you feel anything like I feel when you think about a water garden, then you probably experience some semblance of peace and serenity. Most people feel calm or relaxed around running water, whether it's because they're at the foot of a waterfall or they're fly fishing in a mountain stream. Put it this way: I've never heard anyone tell me that they get angry when they're around the sound of water, gently making it's way from here to there. Now, I can understand if you don't necessarily feel like Niagara Falls is a peaceful place, just like I can understand if you don't feel like an incoming tsunami would be anything less than a terrifying feeling. I'm simply trying to distinguish the peaceful sound that water can produce instead of the scary sounds that signify ensuing danger, so there's no confusing matters. Now, back to water gardens; if you feel like installing a water feature of some kind would give you a sense of calm and peace, then you might want to look at the landscape portfolio of place that specializes in designing or selling water features or pond supplies. Even if whatever place it is that you find only supplies pond materials, they'll most likely be able to recommend someone that frequents their store often because they build and install them for a living.
A rental Photo Booth brings the smiles
Photo Booth rentals can really bring the smiles. Photo Booths have often been a great success and a great way for many people to create memories at a certain event occasion or destination. Photo booths have been around for a long time now but they are still a great way for many people to remember A great occasion or destination that they were at. For some reason we all love to make our funny faces or silly faces in the Photo Booth. We love to create something unique that we don't normally do when someone else is snapping the picture of us. Maybe it's the fact that there's no one standing behind the camera that makes us let loose just a little bit more and decided to throw out that expression that we nearly never make on her own. But being able to have a rental Photo Booth had a special event or party that you may be planning you can provide a great way to bring on the smiles and laughs at the special event. Photo booths are unique and what they can offer to an event. It's a way for many people to walk away with a great memory of the event that occurred. It's also a great way in which you can provide many smiles and laughter at the location as well. Photo booths are a great success no matter the event that is a part of. People love to be creative when creating a photo in the Photo Booth. When you have rent a Photo Booth for your event you were going to create great memories for many people. When people walk away with pictures from an event that is done with a Photo Booth they don't get thrown in the garbage, people hold on to these photos for lifetimes. They want to remember always the time that they went to a certain event and took the photos and the Photo Booth. A great thing that can also be done with the Photo Booth is you can also record all the pictures that were taken at the event. This also makes a great deal of all the pictures to be remembered of all who attended the special event. This works very well for many special occasions. Even weddings are a big hit to have a Photo Booth that. It's a great way for the couple to always remember all those who came to their wedding day. Having great photos like these is always bringing the smiles too many faces. People love to do it they love to be creative as they take these pictures and a Photo Booth. It provides just enough privacy in which people let loose that much more and create a fun memory that they will always be able to take with them. No matter the special occasion that you may have planned or are going to be a part of. If you were able to have a rental Photo Booth is part of that great event that he spent is going to bring out the smiles the laughter and the great memories will go along with it after the event is over. It's a great way to make the memories live on when you are able to have an event with a rental Photo Booth is part of its success.
Phone repairs are easy with Zagg Phone
I never thought I would be able to use my iPhone again. It was a sad, sad day. I had so many memories locked away on that phone. Photos, voicemails, important information that I had somehow failed to write down anywhere else. The most frustrating thing is that I am generally very good with keeping my things neat and tidy. I rarely let them break or go missing; I care for my belongings, as I was taught to do. I even had a nice case on my phone to keep it safe in case any damage would occur. But then, one fated afternoon, I was not paying enough attention and was in a rush to make a meeting that I feared I would be late for. As I unpacked my belongings in my car, I set my coffee mug and my phone on the roof of my car. I failed to retrieve my phone. On this very, very blustery day, my phone was pushed off of its precarious position on the top of my car and fell to the ground. While no other vehicles managed to run over it, a few people did manage to set on it, including myself when I ran back outside to retrieve it. Alas, my iPhone screen was cracked and broken. I could not even turn it on! How was I going to get my pictures and my message back? Something had to be done.
On a whim and a hope, I stopped by a local iPhone repair store on my way home from work. I doubted that there was anything to be done to salvage the wreckage of my phone, but I hoped otherwise. When I walked into Zagg Phone Repair I was immediately taken aback by how kind and accommodating they were. They seemed to understand that it really is not a joke when your phone is broken and you need it to be working! They took about ten minutes to glance it over and push some buttons, then determined that it was, indeed, reparable! I was shocked; they could help me! I could use my phone again after they had spent some time working on it. I began to ask them when I could expect it to be ready, wracking my brain for any free moments I would have the next day to come retrieve it. I was blown away when they informed me that it would be ready in an hour, and that I should go to the coffee shop down the street and return shortly. It was a miracle, a dream come true! Not only wouldI be able to have all of my photos and important data back in within my grasp, but it would not take days upon days; I would be able to keep my standing phone call with my sister tonight!
An hour later I was walking back to my car, my iPhone screen repair all finished and ready to go. Thank you, Zagg Phone Repair for saving the day!
Infusions helped to perfect the Australian labradoodle
The art of dog breed is a tricky one, to be sure. Indeed, it takes a certain type of person to become a dog breeder, let alone to become an Australian labradoodle breeder. This takes skill and dedication, and a knack for understanding the breeds as well as the traits, both evident and invisible to the untrained eye, that can be passed down from generation to generation. This is the critical importance of having a dog breeder you can trust. When you know that the person who is breeding the dogs is cognizant of these small unseen factors, you know that you will be getting a breed and not only that, a lineage that you can trust.
This is why the Rutland Manor Labradoodle breed is simply the best that there is when it comes to finding a labradoodle breeder that will make sure you find a puppy that meets your family's needs. There is even a local breeder that carries dogs of this prestigious lineage in Parker, Colorado, called the Highlands Australian Labradoodle. Their puppies are all descendants of the Rutlands Manor lineages and can be trusted to be the exact kind of labradoodle puppy that will fill your family with joy and puppy love!
The Rutlands Manor lineage and breed has been carefully watched and tweaked since the first crossbreeding began. To be certain, the earliest puppies were a very mixed lot. Every litter had puppies that varied from almost identical to either a poodle or a lab, or some in between mixture that did not quite sit right. Not only that, but the personalities of the dogs also varied widely, making it difficult to nail down those few vital characteristics and health traits that the breeders so want to see the animals endowed with. After all, this was a breeding project undertaken by the Guide Dog Center in Melbourne Australia, so these dogs needed to be able to fulfill the duties they were intended for.
In the end, infusions into the breeding pool allowed the puppies to achieve the desired physical, emotional, and health attributes that the breeders desired and the dogs needed in order to be successful. The first infusion into the breed began with the lovely Irish Water Spaniel. The dog selected was a champion sire. Not only did he have top of the line qualities, but the breed in general has only five congenital and genetic diseases. Compare this to the thirty one in the Standard Poodle and the forty one in the Labrador Retriever, and you have the triumph of health standing before you. In addition, the physical attributes of the Irish Water Spaniel, specifically the reach of his neck and the strength in the loins as well as the hip conformation made this dog the perfect infusion. This line was a massive success and heralded in a long line of other Irish Water Spaniels and other infusions to continue to diversify the gene pool and create the healthy, loving, and brilliant labradoodles that we know and love today!
There are key factors in great barbecue
There are key factors that contribute to great barbecue. Bbq can be done using different types of heating to contribute to how well it turned out. You can use direct heat or indirect heat to get your meat cooked and edible. When you apply heat to meet it reacts in different ways. Depending on how you eat the meat can greatly affect how it tastes in the end. There are chemical reactions that take place with meat and how the fat within the misconduct and how the juices are able to stay in them certain temperatures but will could be cooked right out of the others. Being able to have a successful barbecue usually takes time and experimentation to get it just right. Method in which you cook barbecue will greatly determine the outcome of how the meet is in the end. Smokers are one of the best ways in which you can get a meet exactly how you wanted to be. Having a meat that is so soft it falls right off the bone and moist is a key part of me that many enjoy. Other recipes include using charcoal as a way of making their meat cook with certain elements and flavors coming up through the charcoal. No matter how you cook the meat having a good flavor to it is also very important. Not wanting to have something to overbearing and still being able to have the meat properly collect be an important part of the recipe unique flavors are mastered by getting certain techniques just right. You can rub on to meet apply a wet barbecue and even inject flavors into the meat to make it just right. There are certain ways to cut meat and cook it naked big difference in the end. Being creative can sometimes land some great unique special barbecue recipes. It is nearly a tradition of art for some of the unique recipes that have been encountered by many of the great barbecue restaurants that exist today. Having a passion for it is a key part to the success of a barbecue recipe. Great barbecue restaurants like Bennett's barbecue can always leave you wanting more when it comes to great barbecue. Many people will find a great restaurant like this and stick to it. When you get the right the nation of flavors and the perfect way to cook it you get a great combination that's hard to beat. When you find the right one it'll keep you coming back for more every time. One-of-a-kind barbecue flavors are hard to beat. Usually it is a science that keeps many people enthralled with being able to challenge themselves to create better barbecue all of the time. For some people it is a gift it is a gift that comes naturally and for others it must be mastered slowly with time and practice. Don't be discouraged from barbecuing though because it can be a lifetime of fun for all those who decide to experiment with bar b que whether or not it comes naturally or through time and practice.
Wedding Rings Were Our Specialty
All right boys and girls, I'm excited. Are you excited? Great, and as always, I love the enthusiasm. I think you all know what time it is, I guess that's the reason for all of the excitement. It's career hour again and today we're going to talk to Stephanie's dad about his job. You may have even heard his voice on the radio before on an advertisement, we'll have to see if you recognize it. Does anyone want to guess what Stephanie's dad does for a living? Ok, lots of hands…let's see. Andrew, I choose you, what do you think he does? That's a great guess Andrew, but sadly you're wrong. No, he is not a pharmacist, but I bet he's dealt with many of them in the process of doing what he does for a living. Good guess Andrew. Ok, does anyone else have a guess as to what Stephanie's dad does for a living? Joanna, you…what do you think he does? A racecar driver? Well, that's an interesting guess, but like Andrew, you're wrong. Ok, let's just go ahead and bring him in, so he can tell you all about what he does to put food on the table for his family. Everyone, please give a round of applause to Mr. Farfel.
Hey everyone, thanks a lot for that enthusiastic welcome, thank you very much. Ok, your teacher brought me in today to talk to you all about my career and judging by some of the looks on some of your faces, it seems like you may recognize my voice. I'm a jewelry store owner, and my main job is to find and purchase the best stones in the world, so people like your parents can buy them. We sell all kinds of jewelry, but we specialize in diamond engagement rings more than anything else. Like any business, it's important that you do at least one thing well and although I'd like to think that we do a lot of things well, wedding rings is what we're best at. Now, I'm not sure how many of your parents are still married or if they ever got married at all, but if they did at any point and it happened in this town, I sure hope that it was me that helped them find the perfect ring. Choosing the right person to marry is one of the most important decisions that any of you will ever make, and choosing the right diamond ring is an important step of that process. Diamond rings are judged and priced based on four main criteria and if the diamond doesn't match up in either of those four categories, I don't even buy the stone in the first place. The four criteria all start with the letter "C" and they are cut, clarity, color and carat. Yes, I know I said carat, but I don't think I'm talking about the same carat that you all are thinking of. They're spelled totally differently and mean completely different things, there are a lot of words like that and I'm sure your teacher will do a good job of discerning between them whenever they come up.

Go To Sleep (StevexReader) One-ShotSteve was sprawled out across the bed, remote control in hand as he clicked through channels. You were in the bathroom, removing your makeup and getting ready for bed. After washing your face, you strolled out of the bathroom and sat down next to Steve. He looked up at you and gave you the same smile that always made you blush."Ready for bed?" he asked. "We have a big mission tomorrow so we need our rest.""Yeah, yeah, I know."You and Steve almost always teamed up together on missions. Sometimes you couldn't because your set of skills were needed for a different mission or because yours weren't needed for the one that Steve was assigned to do. Even after being married to him for over three years, you still worried when he went off on a mission without you. Yes he was a super soldier but you knew what kind of torture men like Steve went through if they were captured by the enemy. You had been through it yourself and on one occasion, did
GermanyXReader - So Wet!"Come on come on come on come on plllleeeeeaaaase???" you begged, hugging Ludwig's arm."Nein, I don't vant to." Ludwig refused, turning a page in his book."Then why did you pay to get into the pool if you're not even going to swim!?" you exclaimed, pouting."Because you vanted to come here und you refused to go in vizhout me." he replied, nonchalantly flipping another page."But aren't you hot?" you asked, tugging at his T-shirt."Nein, not under zhe shade of zhis tree." he huffed, "Besides, I didn't even bring my swimsuit.""I know," you smiled coyly, "That's why I did."He said nothing and you sniffled."Ludwig, if you don't swim I'm gonna cry and It'll be all your fault." you said, wiping some fake tears away."_______, you came here to svim. So go svim." Ludwig, waved you off."I came here to svim with you." you frowned, mocking his accent.He looked at you from behind his reading glasses and sighed, his face a bit red with irritation, "Fine."You beamed up at him, "Really!?""If
Sentiment (Loki X Reader)~5 years old~"All hail king Loki!" You cried enthusiastically as you knelt before him on the grass.He smiled. "Thank you my loyal subject! You may rise!"You giggled and stood up before laying on your back on the grassy hill. Staring at the sky. Loki did the same. You looked over at him and held his hand."One day you're gonna be king. I know it." You said as you stared in his eyes."And when I am you're gonna be my queen.""Promise?""I promise"You smiled and looked up at the sky. "We're gonna be together forever right Loki?""Forever and always (Y/n)....Oh and by the way I made you something! With magic my mom taught me!"You sat up. "You did?""Yeah! Here!" He said handing you a small gold ring, surrounded by emeralds.You grinned and put it on your right hand. Loki then teleported it on your left ring finger."So people know you're

And I will not allow you to do this!""Child, you are overreacting.""No I'm not!""I'm just giving you a haircut. You need it!""I do not!"She groaned loudly, the scissors in her hand waiting expectantly, but to no avail. Bucky was dead set against anyone touching his hair. (Name) figured it was because of trust issues, seeing as he was pretty cold and distant towards anyone who attempted to be nice to him. The only reason why he was sort of conversational with her was because she'd taken him in. Of course, she didn't know a thing about him, except that he'd shown up passed out at the edge o
South Korea x Reader - Pray ForA tribute to the Sewol victims and their friends and families in South Korea.Links and information can be found in the description.Stay strong."Yong Soo... Yong Soo, please, you have to eat..."The words that left your mouth coated in the desperate sound of your voice seemed to have no effect on the Korean man, for instead it seemed to mingle together with the hundreds of unheard screams and grief-stricken wails that lingered and echoed in the confines of his mind. Your voice was nothing but another bruise to his already battered state, tearing open the still fresh wound.You eyed him for a response, for anything – maybe a small movement, such as a slight perk of his ears or a subtle twitch – anything to let you know that he'd acknowledged your words, but there he remained, hunched over on the couch like a statue with his face buried in his palms."Yong Soo..." His name was constantly uttered by you, more often than not being said in every sentence as you approac
Bunny!England x Reader- Easter from the HeartA/N:This is the second part of the Easter story I made from 2013- if you wish to read the first part before getting to this, part one can be found in the description. Thank you, and Happy Easter!_____"Happy Easter, _________!"Indeed, today had been April nineteenth, the day where children all around the world would hop out of bed to go in search of the baskets the well known rabbit had hid for them the night before- their little hands dunking hardboiled eggs that had been prepared that morning into cups of colored water, instantly drawing little faces on them afterwards to give the appearance that they had been alive. Today was the candy filled, egg hunting day known as Easter, a national holiday that had been a tad more refreshing than that of Valentines, where everyone showed their love for others by buying stuffed animals and chocolates that would be neglected and eaten, or St. Pactricks day, everything you can possibly think of being decked out in shades of green,
We Fight Together (HiccupxReader) One-ShotThe sound of rocks crashing upon the island of Berk, mixed with the roars of dragons was heard. The black sky was covered in thick, grey smoke that made your lungs burn each time you inhaled. You tried to stay focused, tried to keep on running as your boots became covered with mud. The village houses had been set ablaze. Some were caused by the dragons who missed a target by accident, the others had been set on fire by the enemy.Your eyes darted left and right, searching for your friends and most importantly, the one you loved with all your heart, Hiccup. Due to all your running, your (h/c) hair stuck to your forehead with sweat and your heart was threatening to burst out of your chest. But you couldn't stop running. Not now when Berk was under attack.The Outcasts had gathered up their strength and were now currently attacking with Alvin the Treacherous as their leader. You cursed underneath your breath and you dived to the ground in front of you in order to avoid being hit wit
Winter Soldier x Reader: Oblivion (Prologue)The night was silent. Inky black clouds broiled in the sky, blotting out the moon and stars. The air around you was thick with a sort of tension that heated summer nights like this seemed to come with. In the distance, flames burned, casting a red haze across the sky. But why?Your companion carried another on his back, the red head had not yet woken from her unconscious state. You carried the man's shield on your right hand, tired eyes trying to focus on the empty road ahead of you.Your foot caught on a stray stone, sending you stumbling forward. You quickly righted yourself, glancing back at the blonde, who gave you a silent look of question. You gave a small nod in return, eyes looking forward down the road."We need to find somewhere to crash" He muttered loud enough to hear. "We won't get back to DC in this shape."You nodded, murmuring an agreement before continuing to walk down the deserted road. It was several minutes bef

It was a normal day in the (l/n) household, well, except for an unexpected visit from a certain Norwegian. Lukas lets out a flicker of a smile, but it disappeared just as quickly as it came. "Yes?", he asks, with that same monotone voice. He mentally smirks, but kept up the infamous poker face."Stop poking meeeeee. I need to finish my book", she pouts as she held (f/b) up, him noting that she looked cute like that. Lukas ignores the command and squeezes her cheek again. "Hey, ______? Do you know the phrase, 'Actions speak louder than words'?" ________ looks at him strangely, but nods slowly."Well, what do you think this is telling you?", he asks, and gently pokes her on the arm. She scowls and swats his hand away. "I'm fun to annoy?", she tries, the annoyance clear
Gum FicRainbow Dash tugged the foil off the stick of gum with a ripping sound. Knowing Fluttershy was staring at her, she slowly licked along the bared gum. "This get you off, Fluttershy?"Her friend simply stammered, blushing as she watched. She was unable to take her eyes away as Rainbow Dash used her tongue alone to lift it off the table and onto her tongue.Then she started to chew it, first with her front teeth, then slowly moving it between her molars, displaying each motion to the turned-on Fluttershy.Rainbow Dash then spat it onto the ground and crushed it beneath her heel, grinding into it. The pink-haired pony fainted.

Demonstrating unshakable trust in himself and his golf ball, Titleist Pro V1x loyalist Bubba Watson earned a place in golf history this weekend, becoming just the 17th player to win The Masters more than once. Watson validated his 2012 Masters victory with a commanding tee-to-green performance that resulted in a three-shot win and a victory stroll on the 18th at Augusta National that he was able to savor.
Watson's second green jacket highlighted a three-win week on the worldwide professional golf tours for Titleist golf ball players.
On the Web.com Tour, Pro V1x loyalist Carlos Ortiz achieved his own momentous follow-up, validating his maiden win three weeks ago by capturing the El Bosque Mexico Championship.
And on the South African Tour, Titleist Brand Ambassador Jbe Kruger trusted his Pro V1x golf ball and a full bag of Titleist clubs to enter the winners circle at the Zimbabwe Open.
Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x players have now won 41 tournaments on the worldwide professional tours in 2014, more than five times the nearest competitor with 7 and more than all other competitors combined.
To date, 5,587 players have trusted a Titleist golf ball across the worldwide professional tours in 2014, more than six times the nearest competitor with 855 and more than all other competitors combined.
PGA TOUR: The Masters
Titleist was once again #1 ball at the Masters with more players placing their trust in a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball than all other competitors combined.
Watson, who shared the overnight lead with Titleist Brand Ambassador Jordan Spieth (Pro V1x, 910D2 driver, 913Hd hybrid, AP2 irons (714 series), Vokey Design SM5 pitching, gap, sand and lob wedges, Scotty Cameron 009 putter), shot a final round 3-under 69 for a total of 8-under 280. Watson trailed Spieth by two shots coming to the eighth hole at Augusta National, but he birdied both the eighth and the ninth to take the lead and command of the tournament for good.
"Holes 8 and 9 were the key," Watson said following the win. "Momentum went my way. There weren't too many birdies after No. 10."
Spieth, playing in his first Masters, shot an even-par 72 on Sunday to finish at 5-under 283, sharing runner-up honors with fellow Masters rookie and Pro V1x loyalist Jonas Blixt.
Blixt shot 1-under 71 in the final round, becoming just the second player in history to shoot four consecutive rounds under par (70-71-71-71) in his first Masters Tournament, and the first since 1979.
Blixt and Spieth were just the fifth and sixth first-time participants to shoot under par for their first three rounds.
Pro V1x loyalists Rickie Fowler finished T5 for his best career Masters finish, while Lee Westwood took solo solo 7th. Titleist Brand Ambassador Jimmy Walker (Pro Vx, 913D2 driver, 913Fd fairway metals, MB irons (714 series), Vokey Design pitching, sand and lob wedges, Scotty Cameron Tour Rat putter) also posted a top-10 finish in his Masters debut. Walker shot 2-under 70 in the final round to finish at even-par 288, tied for 8th place with five players including Pro V1 loyalists Bernhard Langer and John Senden.
Bubba Watson ranked first in driving distance at the 2014 Masters, averaging nearly 306 yards off the tee. He found the fairway on 71 percent of his drives. Watson also tied for 5th in GIR, hitting 69 percent of Augusta's greens in regulation. Jordan Spieth led the GIR category, hitting 74 percent for the tournament.
"We always thought I had the talent," Watson said among his closing remarks on Sunday. "We thought I had the ability to play golf at a high level. But doing it is another thing."

WEB.COM TOUR: El Bosque Mexico Championship
Titleist was the top golf ball choice at the El Bosque Mexico Championship with 94 players in the field of 144 trusting a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball, over five times the nearest competitor with 18.
Titleist Pro V1x golf ball loyalist Carlos Ortiz won the El Bosque Mexico Championship for his second victory on the young 2014 Web.com Tour season.
The 22-year-old, who captured the Panama Claro Championship last month, closed with a 4-under 68 en route to a two-shot victory over Titleist Brand Ambassador Justin Thomas (Pro V1x, 910D3 driver, 913Fd fairway metal, 913H hybrid, MB 714 irons, Vokey Design SM5 gap, sand and lob wedges, Scotty Cameron Fastback Plus putter).
Ortiz posted a 13-under 275 victory total and advanced from second to the top of the 2014 Web.com money list, already earning well over the amount needed to earn a PGA Tour card next season as a top-25 finisher. The native of Guadalajara, Mexico would earn an immediate PGA Tour promotion with another victory.
"It's an honor to win here in Mexico," Ortiz said of winning in his home country. "It makes everyone so happy around here. I don't have the words, it just feels great. I just stay patient, trust my game plan, and just let it flow. I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing and see if I can get that third win."
SOUTH AFRICAN TOUR: Zimbabwe Open
Titleist was the top golf ball choice at the Zimbabwe Open with 115 players in the field of 156 trusting a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball, nearly four times the nearest competitor with 31.
Titleist Brand Ambassador Jbe Kruger (Pro V1x, 913D3 driver, AP2 714 irons, Vokey Design SM5 wedges) posted a one shot, wire-to-wire victory at the Zimbabwe Open to register his third career Sunshine Tour title.
Kruger started the final round five shots behind the overnight leader and closed with a 6-under par 66 en route to an 18-under par 270 victory total.
Titleist Pro V1x loyalist Haydn Porteous claimed solo third place, two shots behind Kruger, while Titleist Brand Ambassador Jean Hugo (Pro V1x) finished solo fifth place, four shots back.
"It's overwhelming. A small-town guy named Bubba has two green jackets."
That was what Bubba Watson said Sunday evening, a short while after winning the Masters for the second time in three years.
With a combination of distance and accuracy off the tee, precise and creative shot-making and an unwavering short game, Watson held off challenges by Titleist Brand Ambassador Jordan Spieth and fellow Pro V1x loyalist Jonas Blixt to win by three shots.
Watson entered the final round tied for the lead with Spieth, who jumped out of the gate with some inspiring play to take a two-stroke lead after seven holes. Displaying veteran patience, Watson stuck to his game plan and took control at the par-5 eighth, converting an up-and-down from just behind the green for birdie. He followed up with a birdie at the ninth, where he curled in a delicate right-to-left 10-footer.
From that point on, the lead was his. Watson closed with a 3-under 69, posting an 8-under 280 victory total. His commanding three-shot victory stood in contrast to his dramatic 2012 triumph, where he won on the second playoff hole following his historic hooked wedge shot from the pine straw.
"This one is a lot different," Watson said in a post-round interview. "It's almost like I lucked into it (in 2012), and this one was a lot of hard work and dedication. After giving away that jacket last year, I wanted to get it back. I never loved green so much."
Rickie Fowler (Pro V1x) finished T5 for his best career Masters finish, while Lee Westwood (Pro V1x) placed solo 7th, as Titleist golf ball loyalists occupied five of the top seven positions on the leaderboard.
Watson, who became the 17th player to win the Masters more than once, was presented with his second Green Jacket by last year's champion, Titleist Brand Ambassador Adam Scott.
The victory was Watson's second of the year (his first came at the Northern Trust Open) and vaulted him into a career-best No. 4 in the world. Not that Bubba pays much attention to world rankings.
"I don't play golf for people to say I'm one of the greats of the game," Watson said after the win. "I play golf because I love it."
Congratulations, Bubba!

Hurricane Sandy
Mar 27, 2014 — A law firm hired by the Republican governor's office says its investigation found no evidence Christie knew beforehand about N.J. lane closures that may have been aimed at hurting a Democratic mayor.
Mar 24, 2014 — Swept away by a hurricane, crushed by baggage handlers, infested by cockroaches — nothing hurts quite like the destruction of a musical instrument.
Mar 17, 2014 — 'Impair Ou Pair?' To combat smog, officials restricted car use Monday. For the most part, only cars with odd-numbered license plates could be on the streets. The rule will end after today.
Mar 5, 2014 — Hurricane Sandy may have uprooted Atkins from her New Jersey home, but opportunity knocked from faraway Sweden. With new goals and a familiar producer, Slow Phaser came into being.
Jan 15, 2014 — The New Jersey governor gets skewered by NBC's late-night comic and The Boss. Check out their "Born to Run" parody about the scandal surrounding Christie's staff.
Jan 14, 2014 — Embattled New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie gives his State of the State speech on Tuesday. His administration faces lingering questions about politically-motivated lane closures at the George Washington Bridge. And now Christie faces another high-profile investigation. This one focuses on how his administration spent millions of dollars of Superstorm Sandy relief funds on a marketing campaign.
Jan 13, 2014 — The New Jersey governor's office is already under fire over some seemingly dirty tricks involving the George Washington Bridge. Now there are questions about money spent on ads designed to bring back tourists after Hurricane Sandy.
Jan 8, 2014 — The New Jersey governor has said neither he nor his staff were involved in the closing of some key lanes leading onto the George Washington Bridge into New York.

Dec 30, 2013 — On Tuesday, Michael Bloomberg ends his three terms as mayor of New York City. His 12 years in office were groundbreaking, locally and globally.

Jason The Athlete MacDonald will face off against Jason The Punisher Lambert as he replaces the injured Jason Day at UFC 88 on the undercard of Chuck Liddell vs. Rashad Evans. MacDonald is coming off a loss to Demian Maia at UFC 87 and will fight in consecutive UFCs, a rarity for UFC fighters, and will be looking for redemption against the equally experienced Lambert.
Jason Day injured his elbow and may require surgery to repair it so a return date for the Lethbridge Native is unknown at this time. He was originally scheduled to take the fight but his fellow countryman took the fight when his elbow forced him out of action.
MacDonald, a former prison guard, is a 7-time UFC veteran with a record of 4-3 in the Octagon, an identical mark to his opponent Lambert who has exactly the same UFC stats as that of The Athlete.
In other news, the UFC website also announced that James Lee has been forced out of his bout with Tim Boetsch due to injury and Michael Patt has stepped in to fill the void. The event will take place at the Phillips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, on September 6.
The full card is as follows.
Chuck Liddell vs. Rashad Evans
Rich Franklin vs. Matt Hamill
Karo Parisyan vs. Yoshiyuki Yoshida
Dan Henderson vs. Rousimar Palhares
Martin Kampmann vs. Nate Marquardt
Thiago Tavares vs. Kurt Pellegrino
Dong Hyun Kim vs. Matt Brown
Roan Carneiro vs. Ryo Chona
Jason Lambert vs. Jason MacDonald
Time Boetsch vs. Michael Patt

It's not often I take the time to sit down and write out a testimonial, but I couldn't help but let you know how pleased I am with your Trading as a Business options trading course. This options trading training stands head and shoulders above its competitors for the simple fact that no one is teaching how to trade by portfolio. I was able to spend a good deal of time viewing all the videos, and the clear instructions helped me every step of the way. You've truly got a winner on your hands! Thank you very much. - Paul Forestall
Finally! An options trading program that keeps things simple! I had been looking everywhere for something that would work as well as Options Made Easy videos do. The difference it has made and the results I've gotten are so impressive, I just had to take a moment to write and tell you about them. I've never seen a training program work as well, and as quickly as Trading as a Business does - and you can quote me on that! - Andy Malin
I have been SO impressed with your video training that I wanted to send you a quick note about how pleased I am with it. It's rare to find training with as much effort and dedication as you put into Trading as a Business. Thanks. –Ray Duckor
I LOVE Trading as a Business! Easy-to-follow and clear instructions make for a top notch options training program. You could easily charge 100 times as much for it and still have customers beating a path to your door to buy it. Keep up the good work and please let me know when you release other options trading strategies like Options Made Easy! - Wayne Hertel
Trading as a Business had everything I wanted in an options training program. All of the bits of wisdom that I've picked up have really made it possible for my trading to become very profitable. I bought your program hoping that I would maybe pick up some new strategies and to my surprise (and delight), Trading as a Business completely over-delivered because it is now the only strategy that I use for trading options. I bless you and your family. – Amy Harris
I can't believe what I'm seeing! You guys have really put together something special here. Trading as a Business not only exceeded my expectations but the results I'm getting are absolutely jaw-dropping. I've never seen another options trading method do anything close to what Trading as a Business can. Thanks guys. – Chuck Alba
I had looked everywhere for a options trading training like Trading as a Business - something that would do exactly what it said it would, without all the fuss and hassle. I had already wasted hours of time and who knows how much money on a whole bunch of seminars, so I have to commend you for taking the time to make these videos available to me and for making them so useful and so easy to learn from. I really appreciate what you've done for me. – Ahnaf Suleiman
When I first heard about your Trading as a Business course, I was doubtful. I didn't think that an options training program like this would give me real results, much less stay true to what your website claimed was possible. But after I watched your videos on YouTube and then saw how reasonable your course cost I decided to purchase your program and try out your methods with a paper account. The results have been nothing short of miraculous! The way I've learned to structure my trades from watching your videos and then adjust them has opened my eyes to a whole new way of trading. Your training does everything it says and so much more. I am very happy and for the life of me still can't figure out why you don't charge more money for your course! - Mark Gleason
You wouldn't believe what a difference learning how to trade as a business has made for me. Who would have thought a set of videos would do so much? I can fully recommend your strategies, not just because it's easy to follow and simple to use, but because you are as kind and helpful as anyone I've ever meet. It's a breath of fresh air that I actually paid for something that brought great value to my life. – Carl Sasson
I had looked around for several options trading trainings that would show me how to do what Trading as a Business ultimately did. Trading as a Business was by far the best investment I've made because of its simplicity, ease of use and clear direction. Keep up the good work. I really appreciate it. – Leland Offsteader
"... I get chest pains when I see how much money I'm generating daily. I just want you to know, that you could have charged thousands of dollars for your course, but you are genuinely interested in making a difference in people's lives. And I can gladly tell you, you have succeeded in mine..." --Gerald, A Humble Tradeologist

Instructional Objective The beginning contractor student will learn to equate particular design structures with appropriate construction materials, while becoming acquainted with amenities that can appreciate the value of homes. Players will be able to build a house to spec on time by completing the house first:
* with all necessary elements
* using the recommended building materials
* while trying to conform to the spec guide for the style chosen.
Learners/Context The game is intended for those interested in learning the correct application of architectural design in home construction. The game can be played in beginning contractor, real estate, urban planning, and architecture classes.
Rationale The idea of Specahouse is to reinforce the thematic attributes of building design while adding real-world economic pressures of completing a house on time. Corners may be cut in the area of conformity of style and/or material used to build the house; however artistic and structural consequences will result.
The game allows players to visually acquaint themselves with thematic architectural designs by assembling cards with the designated picture element needed to complete a house. Players also become aware of how attributes can increase property values. By using the icon paste-ups which match their card elements, players see the effects of mismatching different architectural styles in building their houses. The visual representation of each player's hand can be viewed throughout the game as the players assemble paste-up icons of their building elements on a magnetized board. The guide indicates when players may be docked points for use of inferior materials, for obstacle cards, or for lack of style conformity.
Rules The game is designed for 2 to 6 players. Deal one card to each player in the first round. Turn one card over to begin a discard pile, leaving the rest of the deck for pick up.
Each player begins to assemble the necessary elements for construction and to collect attribute/obstacle cards to increase property values by retrieving 1 card from the pickup or discard pile. In each subsequent round, players are dealt the same number of cards as the number of rounds currently played until they obtain a total of 10. Players are allowed to retrieve 1 card per play from the pickup deck or discard pile, but must discard 1 card for each play. Players may discard an attribute/obstacle card through bartering one attribute for another.
If used correctly, attribute/obstacle cards may cause property to appreciate or may motivate players to rethink building strategies. A player may retain attribute cards in order to accumulate points. However, attributes can turn into obstacles if they do not comply with correct specs or if another player goes out first. For example, if a player holds a card designating a lot size of 1200 square feet and the current house size is 1500 feet, he or she will be docked for inadequate space; the card has become an obstacle card. It may be discarded either by exhanging/bartering it or by placing it on the discard pile. In the latter case, it must comply with either the construction theme (such as Spanish style/plaster) or the building elements (roof/roofing materials). Attribute/obstacle cards are associated with the following points:
* 15 points for 1st completed home
* 2 points for every usable attribute
* -1 or -3 for inferior building materials
* -1 or -3 or -5 for inferior structural designs.
The player who builds a house first gets 15 points. However, players are docked points if they use inferior materials or improper house elements/attributes for the chosen design. Points gained or lost are based on:
* homes that are built earliest (15 points)
* homes that conform to specs (3 points per item such as a roof)
* construction materials ratings (3 for superior, 2 for good, 1 fair/bad/poor)
* attribute/obstacle cards (depends on situation)
The player with the most points wins.
Card and Deck Design The deck is composed of 7 house element cards with 58 variations, 21 thematic design cards, and 30 attribute/obstacle cards.
The house elements cards needed to build a house are: *Square foot house:
* Frame or exterior walls
* Roof styles (11)
* Windows
* Garage type
* Driveway
* Number of rooms
The thematic design cards are:
* California Monterey, California Ranch
* Contemporary, Modern
* French Provincial, Conventional French Provincial, Traditional French Provincial, Contemporary French Provincial, Norman French
* Cape Cod
* Victorian
* Spanish, Conventional Mediterranean
* Southern Colonial, Traditional Colonial, New England Colonial, Contemporary Colonial, Dutch Colonial
* English Cottage, English Half Timber, English Tudor
The attribute/obstacle cards are elements through which to gain additional points. They may be kept in addition to the 8 house elements, but should be discarded if they do not increase the value of the house or if they conflict with current card status attributes. They include such items as driveways, sewers, narrow entry ways, views, air conditioning, a yard, a sprinkler system, a pool, and space for an addition.
The Guide Map displays the various architectural themes and their recommended structural materials.
Paste-up Icons of house elements are used to visually display players' progress in the construction process as well as to aid in understanding structural design.
Design Process Because home construction entails a variety of elements, all of which create a particular appearance or pattern, I chose a rummy structure. I thought it would be interesting to add actual dollar costs to the obstacle cards, but realized this might be best utilized in a board game.

PHOTO GALLERY: Danvers Alarm List Company's Patriots' Day salutes
Every year, the re-enactors of Danvers Alarm List Company honor the seven local men lost at the Battle of Lexington on April 19, 1775. Members of the company toured seven monuments around Danvers and Peabody — which was part of Danvers in the revolutionary era — and fired three shots at each site with their flintlock muskets. The seven men who died were Henry Jacobs Jr., Benjamin Deland Jr., George Southwick Jr., Samuel Cook Jr., Ebenezer Goldthwaite, Perely Putnam and Jotham Webb. The 11 re-enactors were Henry Rutkowski of Salem, who led the group, portraying Revolutionary Capt. Levi Preston; Jim Witham of Essex; Donald Hayes of Lowell, the Rev. Dr. Bert White of Pembroke, a United Methodist clergyman who lead prayers at each site; Daniel Cripps of Lakeville; Skip Wiley of Danvers; Mark Richardson of Somersworth, N.H.; Jim Driscoll of Danvers; Bill Buttimer of Beverly, William Clemens of Danvers and his son Billy Clemens, also of Danvers.
