Reimbursement "how-to's" and other resources now available at Practice Central
by the APA Practice Organization
September 29, 2009 — Do you:
Need to know how to correctly complete a standard insurance claim form?
Wonder how to use the Health and Behavior codes?
Want in-depth information about Evidence-Based Practice?
Need quality handouts for your clients or help working with clients who have diabetes?
Practice Central is the go-to place for information and "how-to" resources on these topics and more.
As information about the practice of psychology proliferates, practitioners report that it is increasingly difficult to sift through all of the options and select resources that are the best choices for their practices and their clients.
Developed by the APA Practice Organization, Practice Central is designed to save time and give practitioners peace of mind by simplifying access to the tools and information they need most, while ensuring that those resources are ideally suited for psychologists. What's more, Practice Central addresses the broad range of practitioners' needs at all stages of their careers and in all practice settings.
Although still in its "pre-official launch" phase, Practice Central is quickly becoming the go-to place for resources for practitioners everywhere. The first of many new resources are already available. They include:
Instructions on how to complete the CMS-1500
Integrated Health Care: How to Use Health and Behavior CPT Codes
Insurance and Managed Care Reimbursement Toolkit
2009 updated HIPAA Privacy Rule primer
APA record-keeping guidelines
Fact sheets on a variety of topics for practitioners, clients and the public
Business and clinically oriented Continuing Education (CE) courses developed specifically for the psychology practice community are also an exciting part of Practice Central's initial offerings. Courses currently include:
Evidence-Based Practice in Psychology
Patients with Diabetes: What Psychologists Need to Know
Starting a Practice
Marketing for Psychologists
Technology Solutions
HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules
Each of these online continuing education courses provides up-to-date information, is easy to use and reasonably priced.
"Practice Central is key to the APA Practice Organization's continued commitment to meeting the needs of the practitioner community," says APA Executive Director for Professional Practice Katherine C. Nordal, PhD.
"We've listened closely to what practicing psychologists have told us they need," Nordal said. "The result is a collection of easy-to-access resources that provide practical information that psychologists can use to enhance their practices, both day-to-day and over the long term."
Practice Central's resources and courses are just the beginning. The site will continue to expand to meet the broad spectrum of information, resource and continuing education needs of the practice community.
Practice Central is temporarily a standalone Web page. The full Web site will be rolled out along with the launch of the new apa.org Web site by the end of 2009. When fully launched, Practice Central will replace APApractice.org, the practice destination for the past several years.
To find out how you, your clients and your practice can benefit from this important resource, visit Practice Central today. And don't forget to bookmark the page in your Internet browser.

A disappointed "aww" went through David Letterman's studio audience last night, when Jason Sudeikis declared that he was done with Saturday Night Live. It was the first time that Sudeikis, an SNL writer for two years and a cast member for eight, confirmed the long-brewing retirement rumors.
"I'm definitely done. I'm going to leave. Yeah, I'm not coming back next fall," the 37-year-old comedian told Letterman.
"Do they know that?" replied the Late Show host. (Watch the clip below!)
Oh Jason, we'll miss Joe Biden most of all! Or maybe The Weekend Update Devil. Or possibly Mitt Romney. Heck, we'll just miss seeing that handsome face every Saturday night.
We wouldn't be quite so sad if Sudeikis wasn't the fourth longtime cast member to break up with SNL this year. With Seth Meyers, Fred Armisen and Bill Hader also headed out the door, SNL will be a whole different show come fall.
Which makes us wonder: What is it that makes people decide to leave SNL? It seems like pretty much the best job in the world. We can only guess -- but based on recent departures, here are 4 signs that it may be time to exit Studio 8H.
1. You have a really hot, semi-neglected girlfriend.
We'd imagine that Sudeikis fiancee Olivia Wilde would like to occasionally go to dinner on a Friday or Saturday night.
2. You find yourself suddenly drawn to Portland.
Armisen's big reason for leaving is to focus on Portlandia, which films on the other side of the country from the Big Apple.
3. You've left Anderson Cooper at the altar.
And really, how would Bill Hader ever top that?
4. Jimmy Fallon gives you his job.
When Fallon steps into Leno's shoes, Meyers is going to take over Late Night. It will be like SNL every weeknight! We can't wait to be totally sleep-deprived.
We'll also be looking forward to seeing more of Sudeikis on the big screen. Next up: We're the Millers with Jennifer Aniston.

Less outsourcing, and more local jobs, is what aviation workers say they hope companies will keep in mind as they form new contract agreements. Negotiations are underway between Wichita machinists, and Spirit Aerosystems. Wednesday, workers held a job rally to help spread their message.
So far, there has been positive news coming from the negotiating table. Machinist Union leaders say they're making good progress with Spirit on a new contract. But union members say they want to make sure they express how strongly they feel about the importance of local jobs.
"I think some of these companies have taken advantage of the downturn in the economy as a way to move work out of here faster," said Machinist Union District President Steve Rooney.
Despite the rally, union leaders say negotiations have been going smoothly.
"Negotiations so far with Spirit have been very good, very positive, very upbeat," said Rooney.
A Spirit Aerosystems spokesman says the company was aware of the rally, but declined to comment on it. Spirit and the machinists have released a joint statement on negotiations saying, "These negotiations have been very different than the usual labor-management negotiations. We are seeking to find common ground on the issues before us."
"It's going smoother than about any negotiations at this point that I've been involved in, and I've been involved in many," said Rooney.
Machinist negotiators say they're happy with new agreements on job selection procedures and lay-off and recall rights. No word yet on how long the negotiations will last.

Typically we serve this spread with breadsticks or crackers. But for a delicious change, put a spoonful onto some thick grilled slices of sourdough bread, then top it with a squirt of lemon and a few grinds of pepper. The creamy, pale pink spread, melting into the crevices of the crunchy toast is irresistible.

Pointy Pointy Mittens
Size: Adult S (M, L, XL)
Actual Measurements: 8.5" (9", 9.5", 9.75" ) circumference and 10.25" (10.75", 11", 11.25") long
To Fit: Choose a size that's about an inch larger than your hand, measured around the widest part, not including the thumb. When in doubt, go larger. My 7.5" hand is equally at home in 8.5" and 9" mittens.
Gauge: 6.5 (6.25, 6, 5.75) stitches and 8 (7.75, 7.5, 7.25) rows per inch. Stitch gauge is more important than row. No one wants a tight mitten!
Needles: size 2 (3, 4, 5) US for mitten body, size 3 (4, 5, 6) US for thumb, if desired. Finished mitten size is determined by gauge/needle. I find that my knitting is tighter in very small circumferences, so I use a larger needle for my thumbs. If this is a problem for you, too, going up a needle size helps a lot.
Yarn: 120 (130, 140, 150) yards of each of 2 colors. I'd recommend spinning 2 oz./ 174 yards of each in case you need to do any yarn surgery to make the mittens match.
They use handspun Spunky Eclectic "Dijon" on Shetland and Hello Yarn "Gobbler" on Cheviot.
For these mittens, I wanted a springy balanced 2-ply sport weight yarn. I aimed for:
28 WPI singles
14 WPI plied
7 TPI singles
3.5 TPI plied

Optical Recording Technology: Can Optical Disks be Applicable to Digital Audio Workstations?
Recently, Digital Audio Workstations (DAW) have started to be used for precise editing of musical signals and synchronization between video and audio signals in audio-visual programs. A new recording medium with removability and large capacity is desired in DAW applications. The optical disk is one of the leading candidates for this purpose. In this paper, the principles, advantages and the future of optical recording technology are discussed, and the possibility that the next generation optical discs may be applicable to DAW have been shown.

Singer-songwriter Laura Gibson went from strumming nylon strings for the bedridden to recording with fellow Portland projects such as the Decemberists and M. Ward. Her '40s-era folk mixes bare-bones voice and guitar with nostalgic soul and Delta blues to create a complex soundscape of yearning and promise. This year, she's touring behind her latest album, La Grande, which fills in the thinness of her vintage-inspired vocals with layered instrumentation and a fiery country energy.

So there was a news that BMW will introduce an AMG Black series competitor, and now they are snatching up the guy who was in charge of chassis engineering of the said Black series. BMW clearly doesn't agree with those of you in the "AMG SUCKS BECAUSE I DRIVE A BIMMMER" camp.
Couldnt agree more, i dunno what those guys are smoking, but lately AMG products have proven to be more driver oriented than those fat ass M's of late, not to mention black series products and the SLS, which BMW doesnt even have a product to compete with in the first place.
And he will work around M's philosphy for sure, and as an engineer he must be a great one to have worked his way up on AMG, which lets not forget, also supplies engines for some great cars, like pagani.
People saying that AMG cars of late can only go fast in a straight line def lives in a cave or are too biased.
Great addition to BMWs M division, in fact, IMHO couldnt be a better addition.
Couldn't agree more. One man alone also doesn't decide how a car handles and feels. He is one part of a much larger process for developing and building a car. Hopefully he'll be able to offer insight to M and get really proper driving machines pumping out from BMW again. Looking forward to what comes next!

Review of "Brand Upon the Brain!"
Maddin has said that the Grand Guignol horror genre that influences Brand! — "the gory, hysterical and horniest of melodramas," in his words — accurately describes his own childhood. He does give his own name to the protagonist, who suffers the cloying, suffocating love of a rather monstrous mother, a woman who goes as far as threatening suicide to ensure submissiveness in her children. In this light, the phrase "brand upon the brain" emerges as a likely reference to the wounds parental narcissism inflicts on children.
But the delightfulness of this film stems partly from the way it basks in ambiguity, making you suspend disbelief without even having to consider it. For instance, both the time period and location are vague, making it irrelevant whether the story is set in the past or present, somewhere close or far away.
And, of course, sexual ambiguity abounds. Wendy/Chance exhibits an androgynous appeal that makes it easy for Guy to transfer his hots for Wendy to Chance. It isn't even clear precisely when Sis discovers that her sweetheart is Wendy in disguise; Sis may be in on the scheme from the start. And the sexual allusions throughout the film are oblique and fittingly adolescent, such as the swooning references to the nether regions of the female body as " Rumania !"
There is ambiguity even in how the story is recounted. The film's narration and intertitles provide ironic counterpoint, illuminating alternate versions of the events by voicing a skewed viewpoint.
Maddin has said that he was inspired to have a narrator for Brand! after hearing about explicators in the early days of silent film; these narrators helped viewers follow the action of an unfamiliar new medium without being disoriented by the camera's changing points of view. Then Maddin learned about Japanese benshi explicators, some of whom, Maddin explained on the film's blog, "became stars in their own right, and often invented narratives that ran at cross-purposes to the story being told on screen."
In the end, Brand Upon the Brain! may be too bizarre for some viewers, particularly given the incestuous overtones. But those with a penchant for demented entertainment and a tolerance for exaggerated Oedipal fixations will be thoroughly delighted by this unique and thrilling film.

The data could also inform the individuals living in the community, Anderson explained. "Those folks who are in the farming community know exactly where the ammonium nitrate is and exactly how it is stored, but those folks who live in town who do not farm for a living, but live very close to that facility, don't even know what ammonium nitrate is," he said.
The creation of a database could fall into line with the executive order, which has charged the working group with developing an enhanced information collection and sharing system to help agencies support "more informed decision-making, streamline reporting requirements, and reduce duplicative efforts." But some speakers at the listening group sessions expressed concern that if information about hazardous chemicals were made available to the general public, it could fall into the wrong hands and potentially make facilities a target for terrorist attacks.
Technical Database
If a public database is too dangerous, Jay Brabson, an environmental engineer for the State of Delaware's Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, suggested creating a database for industry only to help new employees learn safety procedures and gain background knowledge from industry peers.
"Maybe a central technical center, or database, where technical information can be asked for and freely given concerning potential risks should be considered," Brabson said. "Process safety questions should be encouraged from all sources and shared with nominal or no fees. It should not be considered a competitive advantage to have competing refineries or chemical processors blow up—that is a mark against the whole industry, not just the competitor."
The working group is also evaluating best practices and methods for interagency collaboration through a pilot program in the New York and New Jersey region: the Effective Chemical Risk Management Project, Federal Region Two. Through the pilot program—the details of which are not yet public—the working group is developing an understanding of the risks in the region and ensuring that local responders have access to key information.
The pilot is looking at improving coordination of inspections through a shared inspection schedule, cross-training of inspectors, and "inter-agency referrals of possible regulatory noncompliance as it begins development of a unified federal approach for identifying and responding to risks in chemical facilities," according to program documents.
Thus far, the pilot has identified a need for better engagement of facilities in the local planning process, additional training for first responders, more support for State Emergency Response Commissions (SERCs) and Local Emergency Planning Commissions (LEPCs), and improved data management and sharing.

From Hovis' famous bread tagline 'the best of both - white with all the goodness of brown' it can either refer to a sexual partner of mixed race or commonly a girl whose vagina is so tight having sex with her feels as good as anal sex.
Isn't that the girl that went back with you the other night?

Merry Christmas everyone from the boys here at Florida Condo Boys, and come chat with us if you want today :D
So after a fun day yesterday of hanging out with Brian and going to the mall and then followed up with seeing teddy and grushka and chaz, it was back to work today. And boy did it seem like today drug on forever. Once the day was over I made it home around 2:45 and was here for when the internet tech made it here at 6pm to get our internet back up and running so that I could get you guys the updates you need. Apparently all we needed was the modem switched out.
Well Christmas time is upon us and this time of year is hard for everyone but its especially hard for me still working as a contractor. Having so many days off due to holidays really sucks and always puts me in debt, even though I am not buying any Christmas presents because I loose so much money like around 800 dollars is lost just due to the days I am forced to take off. That however is the only bad news about this time of year. I was just able to yesterday reconnect with someone who it has been years since I last saw and we hit if off well.
So we have added some new features and some more to come shortly. Right now I am testing the live cams right from my site and we will see how that goes. I will provide a link for you guys here to join me in chat and see the cam when its live. Click here

Fish Chowder Recipe?
With it finally starting to get cold, I've been craving a good fish chowder. But I really have no idea how to make one. Does anyone have a recipe or any thoughts on this? The catch is that it can't have any shellfish or pork. I'd especially love a New England-style recipe, with the cream and potatoes.
Try this:
It's by Jasper White and is my favorite of the NE fish chowders by a mile. It does call for salt pork, but you can easily substitute olive oil or butter for it. I make this a lot and it's always a big favorite.
Do NOT skip the salt pork. It adds tremendously to this fish chowder which is also a favorite of mine .
Jasper's great. But his recipe allows a shortcut around using the fish frames for the broth, which I think is important. It's also very rich with heavy cream, which can obscure the flavor of fish broth (it's probably why he can allow the shortcuts, because with all that heavy cream it doesn't matter as much).
Another classic approach can be found courtesy of Sara Moulton's dad, it seems. This is leaner (half-and-half) and uses the fish frames for the broth. Like Jasper's, though, it eschews the roux or binders that restaurant chowders use as a crutch. Fish chowder, even more than clam chowder, should not be thick with binder.
1C of onions
1C of butter/margarine
2 T of flour
2 C cooked potatoes
1 cup of chopped celery
4 cups of milk (see below)
garlic powder
celery salt
Saute onions and celery in butter until cooked through. Add 2 tablespoons of flour. and cook stirring continously making a rouxe, add four cups of milk or light cream, personal preference. Trying to cut down on fat then use lowfat milk. I also use fat free half and half which adds to the richness, but reduces the fat.
Add the cooked, chopped, potatoes.
I use a little garlic powder, celery powder and pepper then add a couple of handfulls of fish, usually haddock. Simmer through until fish is done. Cook on low stirring frequently.
I normally use salt pork also, but butter/margarine will work. A little different flavor that's all.
I made it yesterday with some homemade english muffins. Here is the recipe I used:
I grew up on the coast of Maine. Here is the way we do it there (nonchef manipulated, simple, and just as good).
Render salt pork in the pot and remove when browned.
Fry chopped onions in rendered fat until soft and slightly browned. (you can add a little butter at either point to help things along).
add small diced potatos, whole milk (some people use some evaported milk or some cream in different proportions), a couple bay leaves, salt & pepper and the fried pork if you want (take off the rind before frying). - I like a little fresh thyme, but that's not that way its usually done.
Cook at medium or so, watching it doesn't burn until the potatos are almost done and add haddock or cod. Cook for a minute ot two longer and then cover take off the heat to rest and cure for an hour or so (this is important).
When ready to serve, heat thru making sure fish is cooked and flaking. Some poeple melt butter into it to make it more rich.
re: tpapa2
Oops I just read that you can't have pork. Butter works well, just tastes a little different.
Wow, those all look great! I'm going to give it a shot this week and let you know how it goes. Thanks!

23w, 6dI'm coming back (with some bad news too)3 comments · 72 views
The Good News
To those of you who have followed me, and are reading this blog post, then I would like for you to know that I am still alive and I intend to start writing again. I have achieved several important life goals, including completing my bachelors degree.
The Bad News
For those of you who don't know, my writing originated from a site called Space Battles. At the moment it appears to be, for lack of a better word, dying, which means a lot of my old stuff is probably going to be wiped, including everything that is not already saved here.
However, to a certain extent, I view this as a good thing as it will allow for me to make a decently fresh start, including with what has been learned working on non-pony fiction.
Stay tuned for more details.
76w, 3dThose semi-steampunk space shoes0 comments · 75 views
For anyone who receives or read my blog...
I am working on my new story. It is beginning to get to the point where I'm willing to post it up on FiMFic, but not quite. The long and short of it is that I'm writing the story out speculating what it would be like if MLP was firmly set in the 19th century. What I realize this means is that there are going to be some overlaps with steampunk, but I am not going out of my way to write it up as such. Steampunk is a romantic form of anachronistic fantasy, while what I am aiming to do is simply pin down the technologies available in the setting to help with constancy and reduce the likelihood of breaking the willing suspension of disbelief. (Though we are talking about technicolor ponies.)
Here is the link to the Spacebattles thread. If you have any comments you'd like to share without being a part of that forum, please let me know.
84w, 6dWill be stepping back into these space shoes very soon0 comments · 71 views
Had some major delays, mostly related to life. I've determined that guitar is my instrument, so there goes fifteen to thirty minutes of my day right there. (As well as a good part of my money, as I have Guitar Acquisition Syndrome.)
On the inclusion of humans: for my sci-fi setting, and it applies to these here as well, humans are notable for only two things. First is that they're the bureaucratic jobbers of the galaxy. One day a backwater planet with primate evolved sentients was discovered, and the next they're having to yell at this weird monkey thing for a refund with the monkey thing demanding that they fill out a Form 35.D to send the complaint to his manager. The second is that they have modernized stringed instruments, probably due to their higher than average dexterity and cultural affinity.
Another note is that a human document is likely to be translated like this. The unicorn translation spell ends up translating to common, easily understood words, which gets really awkward for specialized terms that are not easily explained.
95w, 5dStargazing (Pt. 1)0 comments · 91 views
So tonight I felt like stargazing. Astronomy had always been something of an interest of mine, but I've just begun to be mature enough for actual backyard astronomy instead of sitting in a chair, staring at a screen and oohing and awing at how beautiful the universe is with color enhanced images from Hubble.
Orion was out. It's my favorite constellation. Using my current astronomy book, Night Watch by Trace Dickenson, specifically the chart on the winter sky, I began to use Orion as a point of reference. I was able to discover Canis Major, Taurus,Auriga, and maybe Canis Minor. Of course, I could have gotten confused and mistaken one of the feet of Gemini for Canis Minor, seeing how the Moon is in the middle of Gemini. (You know what they say: The Moon is always out when you want to look for something faint. Overwhelmingly so tonight, since it drowned out a constellation of the Zodiac/I could read my own handwriting by it. If the Princesses were real instead of cartoon characters, then Luna would be such a troll for those of us who bother to stay up. Or a narcissist. Considering the whole Nightmare Moon thing...)
I also saw the Pleiades through my pair of astronomy binoculars. They may be little specks of light, but they're beautiful jewels hanging on velvet. My regret is that my hand is not steady enough to fully appreciate their beauty. I may get a telescope at some point, but not right now. I have neither the budget for something of better quality than the "Christmas trash" scopes you see in department stores, nor the skills to use it effectively. I would like to get an Orion made Newtonian telescope on a Dobsonian mount, but the 4.5" Dob starts at $250. *sigh* I guess I'll shop around some more. I may just use an achromatic refractor for the observing I'll be doing, since for right now I do not have the skills for deep sky, which would lower my costs by half but limit me to the Moon, planets, double stars, etc.. (Not that those objects are not worthwhile, mind you.)
Did get to spend some time with my brother. Maybe we'll have something to talk about other than video games now? I doubt it, but still there's hope. I also renewed my membership with the Astronomical League. Maybe I'll complete some of their observation programs this year and earn some pins? I hope so, at least knock down some of the ones without major equipment requirements like the Lunar I, Constellation, etc.
You know, this might be a reason why I lean towards Twilight Sparkle as favorite pony.

Here's how I'm seeing my current stories, for those that are interested:
Troubled New Home/Trouble with Time Travel: I plan to work on this soon. Problem is that this story was a product of me on SB, and I'm not keen on going back now that I've spent time away from it, got some perspective and realized that I was spending too much time on something I wasn't finding fun anymore. I might go back, update the thread, etc., just for the sake of getting feedback and such, but I'm burned out on that site.
Twilight Sparkle, Planeswalker: I need to draft things out so that it's not just a rewrite, so that I have a consistent plot that I see all the way through.
Twilight Sparkle: HEROINE OF THE IMPERIUM: Far back burner. I used to love Warhammer when I was 18-21. Now I'm 23, and wanting something with hope shining through.
By One's Own Merit: I've got two chapters in the hopper right now, so that'll be another two to four weeks by my current estimates.
Other possible stories:
Untitled Iron Kingdoms Crossover: Elements of that are already at work in Troubled New Home, but it might be a lot of fun. Especially with Cryx being the Nightmare Empire, generically Scottish/Native American Trollkin riding around of buffalo, etc.
Untitled MLP:FiM/LotR Crossover: Would be a ton of fun, but after I get done reading The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings and The Simarillion, plus whatever other letters and works count as part of the cannon for Middle Earth.
Untitled MLP:FiM/EVE Online Crossover: A man can dream, can't he?
Untitled MLP:FiM/Fallout Crossover: I'd have to do more research for the whole 'Pony in the Wasteland' thing, but seeing as Twilight Sparkle is a favorite of mine it can be doable. Real trick would be deciding between the Capitol Wastelands, the Mohave Wastes and my own version of the mythical Texas Wasteland that I started with another story that I did not finish on SB.com.
Untitled MLP:FiM/Pathfinder Crossover: Not sure how I would do that, since I would make the ponies humans for this one like last time.
Possible Non-Pony Stories:
Fallout: Texas: Apparently my first go at it was deserving of a mod. Plot things out, elaborate on setting, so on and so forth. 3 vaults, a secret vault, four nations, radioactive tornado and zombies riding undead horses and giant Mexican freetail bats.
Original Fantasy Fiction Setting: I'd like to live the dream, but living the dream means no more fan fiction. At least here I'm writing every day, and since I'm writing every day, I'm getting better every day.

Dear Baroness Morning Star,
I understand fully the new constitution which constrains us all. Rest assure, though, that there is nothing nefarious happening in Ponyville. That these aid packages have been relatively secret has been the result of my own disgression.
The Ponyville Retirement and Rehabilitation Program has been what I considered one of the most successful charitable programs that the crown has undertaken. The personalities there need protection, and the best protection is anonymity. Some of these ponies have requested clemency or amnesty, and my aid would be politically sensitive. Not to mention the risk of an incindent if things get out of hand.
I have my best ponies ensuring that everything goes according to plan outlined in the Ponyville Charter, which is derived from noble's and common law. My obligations to these ponies predates the constitution by over a century, and I still intend to keep my word.
H.M.S.M. Celestia, Diarch of the Sun, Divine Head of State, Princess of the Magical Land of Equestria, her colonies and dependencies, Protector of the Realm, Defender of Harmony, etc.
"Welp, we're autocrats. What now?" Rainbow asked.
Rainbow and Rarity stood on a small hill, overlooking the village. The two fillies would not know what fate awaited them, simply what had been dealt to them right now. The young unicorn filly was a Lady now, mistress of a small village of serfs and artisans, as well as the surrounding farmland. The pegasus, familiar save for her pure white hair and mane, was her steward and her bodyguard. For certain values of the word, at least.
"Rainbow, I realize that you hate the aristocracy, but now is not the time to fall into self loathing," Rarity replied.
"What self loathing? I'm just a happy autocrat, scheming to steal the wealth of the people. Yep, that's totally me," Rainbow stated with sarcastic cheer. "Why, I even got the shiny new clothes for it. Look at how shiny they are!"
In truth only Rarity's clothes were particularly shiny, being a fine silk dress with plenty of lace, jewels and silver stitching. Her tiara was also fairly shiny, although subdued, being of polished steel. Rainbow on the other hand simply had 'very good clothes', a brown functional affair with polished brass buttons.
"Rainbow, if we are to rule effectively we must overcome the ideas and morals of the culture we were raised in. Chief among them being that clothes are optional," Rarity ground out. "How I rule will depend on the advice of my advisors."
Rainbow snorted. "What rule? You're uncle's trying to be nice Rarity. This gets us out of the way while your relatives plot revenge against the Gong."
"I don't see how this precludes my ruling of this… village," Rarity said.
"How many advisors do you really have?" Rainbow asked.
"Well…" Rarity said, looking to the side. "Maybe… half a dozen…"
"And how fertile is this land?" Rainbow continued.
"Okay, it's absolutely barren," Rarity responded. "So what? This is a better start than getting our blank flanks kicked every day by schoolyard bullies."
"Yeah…" Rainbow said sullen. "Feel different now that we got big fancy titles?"
"No. They haven't come in yet. They're not going to come in," Rarity replied.
"Oh, they'll come in. I feel it. And they'll be the biggest, most beautiful thing anypony has ever seen."
"Size doesn't matter. Shape does," Rarity stated.
"Oh, the shape has to be attractive. But size is important too. Can't have 'em too tiny to see," Rainbow said.
"… are you sure we are still talking about our cutie marks?" Rarity asked.
"No, I'm talking about our manes," Rainbow replied. "Of course I'm talking about our cutie marks! What's more important than that?"
The pegasus filly before the two young mares was a sad example of pony's inhumanity to other ponies. When they found her, her clothes were torn and dirty. Her straw yellow mane was limp and stringy. She was starving, half the weight of a normal pony her age and only slightly smaller than average size. She wouldn't speak, and she was clutching a courier bag with all the might her tiny frame could muster.
The servants in the newly built mansion helped the poor thing, feeding her and bathing her. Nurse Redheart, the stern governess who normally taught and cared for Rainbow and Rarity, tended to the poor thing with the upmost care. While she still seemed half feral, she was no longer trying to bite everyone in sight.
It was her googly eye stare that was most disconcerting. One eye was simply paralyzed in place, nearly rolling over, while the other one looked around, quietly categorizing everything and everyone around her. When not doing that, it seemed blank, almost devoid of emotion.
"Now then, darling," Rarity began, using a word she rather liked that she picked up from the cook, "where did you come from?"
"East," the filly replied.
"Where were you going?" Rainbow asked.
"West," the filly deadpanned.
"Why?" Rarity asked.
It was a question to which the mare received no answer to. Instead the filly's eyes began to glissen, filling with tears.
"Let's skip that part," Rainbow said, clearly having more tact out of the two for once. "What was in the bag?"
"Books," the filly replied.
"What are they about?" Rainbow asked.
"Magic that earth ponies can do," the filly responded. "That's what the Gong said. Said it went against the natural order. Burned my parents…"
The filly began to cry, very hard and very loudly. Nurse Redheart walked into the room, once again the stern governess.
"Visiting hours are over," she said, her Equestrian quite clear despite the years living among foreign nobles. They nodded, as the young filly cried, quickly slipping out. Rainbow took the time to grab up the bag before anyone could notice, slipping out of the room and slinging it around her neck.
"Rainbow, why did you take her bag?" Rarity asked, more than a little annoyed at the crass display.
"Well, if the Gong see it as worth killing over, then it must be important," Rainbow replied.
"The Gong are profligate pillagers. They do not need a reason to commit rapine," Rarity said dismissively. Her tone was haughty, picking up on the artificial dialect that was so common among the noble courts. "What happened is sad, horrible even. But hardly unique here. Ever wonder why we, as autocrats, are so loved by our people?"
"Because we're foreigners who keep the taxes low and stay out of their business," Rainbow stated.
"Exactly," Rarity confirmed. "Even among the nobles more deserving of the word, certain… liberties are taken with the local population."
"I don't see how this relates to my borrowing of her books," Rainbow said with exasperation.
"Because those are hers. They belonged to her parents. You're a war orphan too, you should understand," Rarity said, before stopping at a window. She looked upon the blue mountain which dominated the skyline. Often the newly noble pony would stare out at in in revelry, as though it held some deep secret.
"These books might be dangerous! I know you think I hate this job, but if it would hurt the ponies in this village, or help them, then I have to make sure that it won't bring our doom," Rainbow said with a mix of anger and annoyance, juvenile wings open in agitation.
The room that Rainbow had sequestered herself in was in the interior of the castle. It was dark, and cold, heated by a well tended fire. The young mare was clearly the worst for ware, spending days reading the texts by candlelight. Her white mane was all over the place, and she had shed her daily clothes for her evening robe and underwear.
To the young pegasus who was wronged, though, it didn't matter. She was so angry that she snuck off, naked even, for the fateful confrontation. Her face showed anger and defiance despite her comically misaligned eyes. She was ready to begin to her tirade, before being cut off.
"Hello Derpy. I expected you to visit me," Rainbow said, suddenly and with far too even a tone of voice.
"How do you know my name!?" Derpy yelled, caught off hoof and far too angry to care about yelling at one of her betters.
"Because the maids and hoofponies talked to me about you. I have a special interest in you now. I suppose I should be thankful…" Rainbow rambled, before catching herself. She was still bent over her ill gotten books, and instead of talking, she merely continued to read.
"You stole my parents book," Derpy spat out, though in truth she felt more than a little fear because of the seemingly half-feral pony before her.
"I read your parents books," Rainbow replied, unnaturally
"… you learned my parent's magic?" Derpy asked, cautiously.
"I learned something better than magic," Rainbow replied, slowly turning around. The play of lights and shadows made her seem taller than she was, and their red glow made her appear as a much darker and more menacing mare. There were bags under her eyes, and her features were twisted in a manically gleeful expression, her entire being expending all its effort to express a single word, a singular concept to sum up the entirety of her new passion and purpose.
"I learned SCIENCE!"
"Forceps," Rainbow ordered, blood covered hoof outreached.
"Muffin," Derpy replied, putting said confection in the mare's hand.
Rainbow was seemingly confused. Her hair was till neglected, though not nearly was wild. Though there were still bags under her eyes from her initial science binge and her now frequent all nighters, she was getting something resembling sleep. Her clothes were those of a doctor now, and as such more akin to a chief or a griffin butcher. Before her, on the embalmer's table, was a dead Gong spy. It was quite a boon for Rainbow's study of the body: he was strung up nearly two hours ago, and other than some obvious bruising around the neck was in nearly perfect condition. Except for the large slit made down the barrel of it's chest, but since Rainbow and Derpy made that, it didn't count.
"Derpy, this isn't a set of forceps," Rainbow said, clearly adjitated.
"No, Mistress, it's a muffin. Your observational skills are much better than mine, as always," Derpy said, just as frustrated. Her expression retained its absolute seriousness for only a few moments, as her previously paralyzed eye began to roll up against her will once more.
"Derpy, why must you always do this at the most inappropriate times?" Rainbow asked.
"Because you need to eat! You're wasting away worst than I did," Derpy replied.
"Rarity doesn't think so," Rainbow said defiantly.
"Lady Rarity spends more time staring at dumb rocks than you spend doing this!" Derpy said, gesturing at the body. She looked over at it, and then screamed.
The body began to spasm on the table, jerking around as it did when it was still a pony being strung up. It's eyes widened, and it's face was contorted into a grim smile. This caused Rainbow to scream as well, jumping back to the nearest wall, keeping her eyes on the corpse.
"Mistress Rainbow, Derpy, what's going on!" Nurse Redheart yelled, running in as quickly as she could. She then quickly assessed the situation, from the sliced open body trying to dance on the table to the two fillies cowering against the far wall. "Oh by all that is holy WHAT IN THE NINE HELLS ARE YOU TWO DOING?!"
"I DON'T KNOW!" Rainbow yelled back.
"Autopsy," Derpy replied, with much more calm than Rainbow, but still clearly distraught.
"Then it's the rigor mortis," Redheart said, angry but still calm. "And the jerking around would be corpse convulsions, likely from the fact that he suffered a traumatic death. It'll end soon. For now."
Sure enough, like the experienced nurse said, the corpse calmed down. It held the position it had in death, though, twitching every now and then as it continued that weird, wide eyed smile.
"Now I'll have to get the garden hose," Nurse Redheart sighed, walking out of the room. "Don't you two dare move."
There was a moment of silence shared between the two fillies and the corpse, before Rainbow looked over to Derpy. "Exactly who's minion are you, Derpy?"
"Depends," Derpy replied, relaxing back to her normal, world weary state.
Rarity had taken to having walks on the dumb blue mountain. Rainbow didn't know why. It appeared as though it was a convulsion, a ritual that she had developed to ease her mind even if it made the villagers worry. Though it was at those times, on her dainty little picnics up what was normally a perilous climb, that she was apparently the most approachable.
Both Rainbow and Derpy had been growing into their wings. Rainbow wanted to show off the wonderous inventions that she had made. Derpy wanted to help, as the two eccentric young mares were the closest friends that she currently had.
"Rarity! I made a new thing!" Rainbow yelled as she deceneded from the sky, pieces of a machine in her saddlebags. She had started to make her inventions modular, for easy transport.
"Hmmhmm dear. What would that thing be?" Rarity asked.
"I… don't know yet… I'm thinking a cultivator." Rainbow replied.
"It could be an automatic muffin launcher if we made the tubes bigger," Derpy said absentmindedly.
"Yes dears, I'm sure it would," Rarity absently noted. "What do you think, Tom?"
The large boulder situated across from her was as silent. Likely because as pleasant as the company was, it was situated dangerously on the edge of a cliff. But Tom was just that sort of gentleman. At least, Rarity told herself that.
"Forgive Tom for his rudeness," Rarity said. "He's Pranch, and while elegant does not understand our ways."
"Umm… are you feeling okay, Rarity?" Rainbow asked.
"No, Rainbow, I'm not feeling okay. Because I am compelled to be here," Rarity said, anger slowly rising in her voice. "Every day, every single day, I get a weird itch in my horn that grows stronger and stronger until I come here."
"Umm… Rarity…" Rainbow tried to interject.
"In fact, it's a wonder that I stay sane at this rate, surrounded by this desolent mountain and these dumb… stupid… ROCK!" Rarity screamed, throwing a teacup at Tom with her magic. She then bounded up, trying to trackle the rock and only dirtying her elegant clothes in the process. "DUMB ROCK!"
"Lady Rarity, do you need help?" Derpy asked.
"Dumb rock!" Rarity scream, bucking it. Although a unicorn, it seemed as though she had Earth pony magic for this moment, her young rear hooves pushing the rock back ever so much.
"Dumb rock!" Rarity screamed again, bucking more, pushing the rock back even further.
"Dumb, stupid, rock!" Rarity screamed, giving the rock another buck. It would be it's last, as it finally fell over the edge, shattering on the granite platform below with a mighty crack. The sight was something to behold, almost as though it was a living thing pushed over the edge by its passionate murderess, spilling forth it's innards in a shower of multicolored gems.
"Holy crap," Rainbow said quietly at the display, walking quietly to the edge of the cliff with Derpy, past the sobbing Rarity.
"By the creator and the gods," Derpy whispered in awe. "Those are every sort of gems imaginable. Emeralds, sapphires, quartz, diamonds… everything. We have everything."
"Gems?" Rarity asked, quickly running over to the edge. Her juvenile face went from sadness to glee. "Not just gems, jewels! We have jewels!"
She hopped off, something ill advise for anyone unicorn save those with the strongest tinge of Earth pony blood flowing through their vains. When she landed, she began to laugh in manic glee, sorting through the valuable, semi-valuable and junk stones with the grace and talent afforded by those who have discovered their special talent. "We're rich! The lands rich! The village is rich! Everypony is rich!"
"That could be a freak accident," Rainbow said.
"Unless we have rock farmers here," Derpy stated. "The rock farmers of Equestria produce so many gems with their specialized application of magic that mineral eating creatures like dragons are the only thing not inflating the market."
In this time Rarity's horn glowed brightly. With a combination of magic and hoof, she began to burrow into the ground, disregarding any sort of cleanliness or grace. By the time Rainbow and Derpy got down to her level on the platform, she had already discovered a vein. "Can we afford Pies?!"
"We can bake pies," Rainbow replied with caution.
"Yes, we can afford the Pie clan! They'll come here for free with deposits this rich, if we're willing to negotiate a percentage of the 'harvests'," Derpy replied. At Rainbow's baffled look, Derpy gave a shrug. "You have a beautiful raw genius, Mistress Rainbow. I can focus on more practical matters."
Rarity emerged from the cave. She was filthy, her hair was a mess, her dress was in tatters, and she was the happiest she had been in her entire life. "The harvest has been poor and fighting season is coming soon. If we can afford food, afford factories, afford everything we need to make our village levy the best damn free company there ever was and arm our allies with weapons of our design…"
"Whoa whoa whoa. Weapons? For killing ponies?" Rainbow asked, shocked at the suggestion.
"We're feudal lords protecting our lands, Rainbow," Rarity began. "If we make weapons that outclasses our opponents' levys, give our Earth ponies enough power to overcome their inbred unicorn mages…"
"… make fighting seasons shorter… wars so costly rulers balk at fighting… industry advanced enough that simply holding land is not enough…" Rainbow continued, caught up in the thinking.
"End campaigns faster, save the lives of those who would normally die of camp sicknesses. Giving the common pony the means to confront tyranny first hoof, and wrest power from the martial classes," Derpy continued on.
"I'll do it," Rainbow promised. "I'll make your weapons. Somehow."
Duty and honor. Dedicating oneself to a lord, even to one's own death. Weilding a weapon that had been made by a master craftsman, worth the soul of it's owner. Learning drills, and performing them over a thousand times. Reaching such heights of perfection that even an Earth Pony could cut the very clouds themselves. Years of training, of physical and mental preparation, all leading up to a charge to seek out single battle.
This had been the way of war for thousands of years.
With the roar of fire from small firearms, these warriors were shown that war had changed.
Capable of firing at a rate of over 200 rounds per minute, with its rotating barrel and hand cranked automatic reloading system, this gentlecolts is the Rainbow Machine Gun. Created by renowned inventor Dr. Rainbow Spectrum, this gun can provide a continuous rate of fire without pause for reloading.
The company of Earth Pony knights that had been charging forward were comfortably within the range of the hundreds. Unlike levy troops, who relied on ponderous mass movements and mutual support, these ponies were best at lightning strikes and single combat. Yet even as the hearts of those facing them were quivering in fear, the generals presiding over the battle stood unphased.
With this weapon in your arsenal, a trained crew of just four Earth ponies can do the work of fourscore trained battle mages, reducing the cost of your army and increasing its effectiveness. And all through Equestrian ingenuity!
The indigenous officer looked on at the invention's work in horror. He had never before seen such awesome carnage before. Even his thoughts of home, his thankfulness to be alive, were set aside for a moment as the proud armored warriors who had spent their their lives training for this moment were cut down by so few. Their armor, which could withstand the blows of swords and arrow alike, were punctured by the bullets. From the much wider exit wound of the high caliber bullet could be seen puffs of even from their distance. A few were even shot through the neck, nearly decapitating the warriors in a gruesome sight.
Those few that survived the machine guns would have to face the rifleponies. Well drilled and armed with the much less expensive but highly effective individual breech loaders, they let loose a disciplined hail of fire. Practically everything in their forward arch died. Everything that didn't met their end either at the point of a bayonet, or the butt of a rifle.
Such was the fate of an army of well trained feudal warloards, sent to suppress a peasant uprising backed by aristocracy with delusions of enlightened republicanism and democracy.
So gentlecolts, are you ready to sign?
Such was how Rainbow aided Rarity and Derpy in their revenge against the Gong. That they made a nice chunk of change profiting from the constant warfare that occurred outside of Equestria, and even the playing field a great deal, made things all the better.
What the fuck I am still insanely confused I feel like your pulling some cloud atlas bullshit on me
Haven't seen or read Cloud Atlas. I'm trying to make my way through Tolkien at the moment. That and model/paint my 15 point Mercenary army for WarMachine. ... and being a full time student...
>>1995068 Cloud Atlas has a tendency to suddenly, jarringly transition from one character in one time period to another in another. This feels rather similar. We've gone from a conspiracy to keep Rainbow's SCIENCE suppressed in an otherwise canon Ponyville to young Rarity and Rainbow Dash as feudal lords in some unspecified region at war with some religion or rival nation called "the Gong." You've dropped us into a barely recognizable continuity with no warning or explanation of what the flying spaghetti monster is going on.
That said, Derpy is best Igor.
I'm digging this. It's very different form everything else in my favorites list and that's what I like most. It's unique. :D

State Police Say 7 Died in Holiday Weekend Crashes
Reporter: Virginia AP
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -- Seven people died on Virginia highways over the four-day Memorial Day weekend, the lowest total for that holiday period since 2009.
According to the Virginia State Police, the fatality total was down from 11 during the 2012 Memorial Day weekend. It matched the 2009 total, which came a year after 18 people were killed during the holiday weekend.
The seven deaths occurred in Newport News and the counties of Amelia, Carroll, Fairfax, Patrick and Southampton.
State police stepped up enforcement efforts over the holiday weekend, writing nearly 12,000 speeding tickets and more than 2,600 reckless driving citations. There were 137 drunken driving arrests and more than 1,100 tickets for seat belt violations.
20 Va. Babies Born on 5-29 to Win College Savings
Reporter: Virginia AP
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -- The numbers 5-2-9 will be lucky for some babies born in Virginia on Wednesday.
The Virginia529 College Savings Plan says it will award college savings accounts to 20 babies born closest to 5:29 p.m. Wednesday at participating hospitals.
The accounts are valued at $529 each.
Virginia529 CEO Mary G. Morris says in a news release that most parents believe attending college is important for their children's future. But most aren't regularly saving to pay the costs of a college education.
Wednesday's giveaway is part of the state plan's celebration of National 529 College Savings Day.

- " Very nice place to stay. Comfertable, pretty much in the city centre and a very naci hostess. The only con is that there is only the one bathroom to use for several guests, which means you have to wait sometimes before you can use it. "
- 04 Apr 2014 Anonymous Netherlands
- " This was advertised as a ensuite with a private bathroom. The bathroom is shared with the other rented room. The room is located in someone's house not in a hostel as advertised. The bedroom door or bathroom door does not lock. The house has animals living in it as well as a family...... No breakfast included all though she does say you can make yourself comfortable. We were surprised by what we booked. It worked for the night but it was not as advertised. The owner is very nice. "
