Almost anything would have been an improvement on last year. The WTF yellow Marchesa. What? You forgot? How? Here. For 2015, Katie Holmes wore Zac Posen. And it's fine. Full Story
Smutty Social Media, Friday April 24, 2015
Yesterday Lainey wrote about RDJ walking out on an interview. When I watched the clip, the one thing that really struck me about it is how un-RDJ he was about it. This guy knows how to be a movie star, like George Clooney knows how to be a movie star and Julia Roberts knows how to be a movie star. Full Story

Reese Witherspoon having a Sweet Home Alabama moment. This is a "must watch" movie when you find it on TV on a Sunday afternoon. Um. This just happened. @Tiffanyandco just surprised me with a #SweetHomeAlabama moment in NYC??!!! Where magical moments happen. #Pinchme #NotYourAverageWednesday !!💙💙💙 Full Story
Tom & Suri's year apart?
Yesterday I posted photos of Tom Cruise with son Connor at the NCAA Women's Final Four Semifinals. Click here for a refresher. Today TMZ reports exclusively that Tom Cruise hasn't seen daughter Suri in almost a year. Full Story

Tidal is still prominent on Instagram – Madonna and Nicki have been particularly vocal. I looked through the photos and noticed something: Nicki with Rihanna, Beyonce with Nicki, Madonna with Rihanna and Nicki, Alicia with Beyonce… but no Beyonce and Rihanna on social media (but there is an official photo Full Story
Katie, Jamie, and Suri

Katie Holmes took Suri to the Kids' Choice Awards on Saturday night. And Suri clearly enjoyed it. Arms up in the air, trying to shove air balloons into her clutch…she's 8 now, and this event hits all the sweet spots for someone her age. It must have been magic. By the way, Jamie Foxx was also at Kids' Choice on Saturday. Full Story
Yesterday was Katie Day
Remember when Katie Holmes was a ninja? How she left Tom Cruise without Tom Cruise knowing? Secret cell phones and lawyers undercover and a new security team, all in place well before she blindsided him: I'm leaving you. Then it was every day paps with Suri in New York, part protection and part promotion. Full Story

Remember when Katie Holmes went through her "dancer" phase and there was her super hyped So You Think You Can Dance appearance that ended up being a taped segment and really boring? Here she is, on grainy video, doing a leg kick. Try not to die of excitement. Kicking into Wednesday! Have a great day! Full Story
Katie & Jamie for real
Holyyyy F-CK. There have been rumours for over a year. But nothing solid to substantiate it. Until now. US Weekly has the major exclusive: Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx. Together. Holding hands. Someone crept a photo. Like someone sold them out. Because this. I mean this kind of picture only happens when you're on the inside. Full Story
Smutty Roundup: Fashion Week Katie & Dylan McKay

NY Fashion Week started today. Katie Holmes was at two events, one last night and one this afternoon. Cute outfits both times. You know what I'm going to say here. It's never a problem when she's not the one designing the clothes. Apparently yesterday she was judging fashion students in a partnership with JC Penney? How do you feel if you're one of the students? It's Throwback Thursday so I'm giving you some Dylan McKay. Full Story
One hat too try

As mentioned yesterday in the Smutty Roundup, Katie Holmes is in Berlin for Fashion Week. Today she was front row at the Marc Cain show. Beautiful coat. Love the sweater dress. And the boots. If she had quit there, we'd be good. But that hat… That hat takes it from steezy to try, non? The hat is the detail that makes it uncomfortable. Full Story

Skip to main content
Scarleteen is one of the world's most respected and valued resources for sexuality education, both online and offline. We play a very important role in the lives of young people.
In 2012, as is typical for us most years, we served more than five million people internationally, most between the ages of 16 and 21.
We helped them navigate emotions, desires and pressures they faced. We helped those of them engaging in sex or relationships to have better sex and healthier relationships. We helped them prevent unintended pregnancies. We helped them heal from assault and abuse. We helped them better understand their own bodies, hearts and minds, and helped them to better care for all of those parts of who they are and make their own, unique best choices. We helped them come out to parents and friends, and to better communicate with many different people in their lives about sex and sexuality. We helped them get through hard times, and helped them become even more amazing than they already are. We helped them through their adolescence and emerging adulthood, particularly around one of those most complex parts of both: their sexuality.
We were here for them, and want to remain here for them. But to make that happen, we need you to be here for us.
We served those five million young people last year, in all of those ways and more, on a budget of only $45,000.
Not four and a half million dollars. Not four hundred and fifty thousand. Just forty-five thousand dollars.
For every dollar we had to work with, we helped more than a hundred people. Most accessed the thousands of pieces of accessible, original, progressive content in our archives. Some talked with us directly, asking one question and getting one, sometimes life-changing, answer. Others engaged with us in conversations, based on their expressed needs, for days, weeks or months. (Some we've been talking with for years.) Some used our message boards or other channels to get peer support, having conversations about sensitive subjects in a safe space. Some use our growing database to find in-person services, or got a personal referral to in-person services they needed from us via our direct services. Some benefit from the face-to-face outreach we do. Some use what we offer on our social media channels to interact and expand their sexuality education, or to find other credible, reliable places to explore these topics. We're sure many will now also use our new live service to connect with us for help in 2013.
We also served fellow educators, healthcare providers, parents and other youth allies and advocates with information and support they needed to work with and support youth themselves. Scarleteen remains, as it has been since we first started in the late nineties, a widely acclaimed example of ongoing excellence in sex education.
And we did all of that at a total cost of less than a penny for each person we served. That's an incredible feat, and we're pretty proud of ourselves for doing it, particularly since it makes us the most cost-effective sexuality education and support service for young people — maybe for people of any age — there is.
As impressive as it is, we can't go on this way forever. Our current budget doesn't give us the stability we need to keep going at this level, and it certainly doesn't give us the ability to grow in the ways that the young people we serve need us to.
To keep doing what we do sustainably, we need around $88,000 to work with this year. That's about $240 a day. Getting to that $240 daily means just $20 a month from you. For twenty bucks a month you can know that everything Scarleteen did for a day happened because of you. One whole day of Scarleteen for young people, thanks to your awesome self.
That's not just a pitch. It's real. Less than ten percent of our budget goes or will go to administrative costs. None of it goes to marketing. All of our energy, our passion, and our commitment goes directly to the young people we work with and work for. And you can be what makes that happen.
For a donation of $20 a month, sustained for one year, you can be the reason Scarleteen happened on that day. If you like, we can even let the world know. In recognition of your $20 monthly donation, after one year we can announce on our front page that you — or someone else you'd like to dedicate your day to — were what kept Scarleteen going that day. We'll shout it from the rooftops, to our five thousand friends on Facebook, our ten thousand Twitter followers and our fifty thousand message board users.
So if you can, we hope that you will. We show up every day to help them out: we're hoping that today, you will, too.
We're in our fifteenth year now, but because we've always struggled financially, we've never been able to achieve everything we have the desire and the capacity to do. If you sponsor a day, you won't just be underwriting everything that Scarleteen is, you'll be supporting all we can be. Here's what an $88,000 annual budget would mean for us, and for the young people we serve:
Reaching this funding threshold can allow us to begin our fifteenth year in such a way that we know we can finally more easily sustain and manage the organization going forward, and continue to evolve and grow as creatively and progressively as we have throughout our history.
Twenty dollars. For all the young people who express a strong want and need for all we offer them: who thank us every day for what they find here, and who frequently express that in finding us, they found a lifeline they needed to help them navigate one of the more challenging parts of growing up and being a person. Who write us thank you letters years after they stopped needing Scarleteen to let us know how much it helped them when they were young. Twenty dollars to serve a thousand young people: we think that's pretty fantastic. We don't even need $20 a month from that many people. Accounting for the private grant we receive and our current donors contributions, we only need that $20 a month, sustained over one year, from around 180 more people to meet our goal.
If you have the means to donate more than that, that's fantastic. Wahoo! And thanks! But if you don't, that $20 a month, once a month, helps us out tremendously, as does a donation of any amount. And it doesn't just help us: whatever you donate is what helps bring Scarleteen to millions of young people every year, changing their lives for the better and making you both our superhero and theirs.
Young people need our help and support. To keep giving that to them, we need yours.
If you can be one of those people giving a monthly recurring donation of just $20 each month, the one who keeps Scarleteen open for a whole day, we'll let the world know what you did. But more importantly, we'll know. Our users will know. And you'll know.
If you would like to support us in some other way, such as through advertising, sponsorship or by volunteering your time or if you have any questions about donating, we'd love to hear from you. You can contact us via e-mail here.
Thank you,
Heather Corinna

And one helluva producer.
As part of the Xbox One reveal Tuesday, Microsoft unveiled plans for Halo: The Television Series, which will air exclusively on Xbox Live. To assuage any fan fears about the show's quality, the Redmond-based company has partnered with legendary movie-maker Steven Spielberg to create it.
Spielberg will executive produce the live-action series, working with 343 Industries and the newly created Xbox Entertainment Studios.
Spielberg appeared at the unveil event via a short video, where he said he was excited to be involved with "the heroes, worlds, and wonders that Halo will take us to."
"Halo has always been more than a game," said 343 Industries' Bonnie Ross, who introduced the show. "The Halo universe is an amazing opportunity to be at that intersection where technology and myth-making meet to produce something truly groundbreaking,"
While there's plenty of cause for excitement, there are even more questions. Microsoft didn't discuss who else would be involved in the series. We're not sure whether it will focus on franchise heroes Master Chief and Cortana or the broader Halo universe. And there's no word -- or even a hint -- about when it will begin airing (or if production has even begun on the series).
The move to television comes after Microsoft has been unable to find a suitable studio home for the Halo franchise. Some years ago, director Peter Jackson was attached to a Halo film project as producer, but things fell apart due to budget concerns. Studios were nervous about the high price-tag of making the film, given the sluggish box-office performance of other game-based movies.
With the hiring of Nancy Tellem, former president of CBS Television Studios, last September, Microsoft committed itself to a more serious focus on original entertainment content. Where better to start than with its flagship franchise?

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- Connor Shaw threw two touchdown passes and ran for another, Ace Sanders had a dazzling 70-yard punt return touchdown and No. 6 South Carolina's defense dominated fifth-ranked Georgia in a 35-7 victory Saturday.
The Gamecocks (6-0, 4-0 Southeastern Conference) won their school-record 10th straight game with a performance that marked certainly marked them an Eastern Division front-runner -- and maybe showed they're capable of even more.
Those tests come soon as South Carolina travels to once-beaten LSU next week and then to Florida on Oct. 20. It'd be hard to pick against the Gamecocks after this one.
South Carolina grounded "Gurshall," holding Georgia's stellar freshmen Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall to 76 yards combined. The Bulldogs (5-1, 3-1) finished with 224 yards, less than half their season's average coming in.

Take a look at these stomach turning real life stories:
1. Wendy'svChili – A 39-year old San Jose woman planted a real human finger in her Wendy's chili and told police she found it there. In actuality, her husband bought if from his co-worker after it was chopped off in an industrial accident. DNA tests confirmed the identity of the finger. The woman, Anna Ayala, said she cooked the finger (to medium-well doneness) and kept it in her freezer for a month. She served four years in prison and is banned from Wendy's for life.
(After this famous story, I still can't bring myself to eat the chili, even though I know the finger was planted!)
2. Prisoner Gets Fingered- An inmate in Pelican Bay State Prison was eating a frozen dinner and "chewed on a crunchy object" in his cornbread. There had been an accident in the factory that made the frozen dinner earlier that day (a worker severed the tip of his finger while cleaning out the cornbread machinery). Ironically, the prisoner was Buddhist, and vegetarian. He lost 15 pounds in six days because he couldn't eat and had to go to counseling.
3. TGI Friday's Fast Food Finger – A customer found a piece of finger in his burger. The kitchen manager cut himself, and no one realized where the piece of finger went. Oops!
4. Chocolate Finger Chip Ice Cream– A North Carolina man found part of a severed index finger packed inside a pint of frozen chocolate custard. The finger belonged to a grocery store employee. "I thought it was candy because they put candy in your ice cream or whatever to make it a treat," he told the Associated Press. When he realized what it was, he "just started screaming."
5. Ham Finger Sandwiches – A Tampa couple found part of a finger in a ham they bought at a supermarket. They were going boating and were craving ham sandwiches. The couple sued the store, and claimed to be in great distress. How upset could they be? the store argued. They still ate the ham.
Source: Gendy Alimurung from LA Weekly
Now that we've wet your appetite… it's that wonderful time of the year to really freak out your friends. Throw a butcher shop party. Make a killer punch with some floating fingers inside… see who dares to drink it. Go bobbing for apples….in a vat of severed body parts. Or just take one of those disgusting finger parts and slip it into your friends lunch. Sit back and enjoy the screams. Warning: Don't try this with strangers or you could deal with some serious consequences.
The possibilities are endless when it comes to bloody body parts. Use FrightCatalog for your goodies and your imagination for the deliciously gruesome fun.

Baldwin's Bethpage knob's smoothly curved profile reflects classical beauty that shines in any home. Featuring solid brass construction and available in finishes both popular and exotic, this knob is both durable and matches a variety of decors.
Keyed Entry (Single Cylinder): Baldwin's single cylinder keyed entry knobs and levers are able to be locked and unlocked from the exterior with a key, and then locked or unlocked from the inside with a turn-button. Primarily used for securing entrances, garages, and storerooms.
- Manufactured using solid forged brass for maximum strength and security
- Latches are constructed for exceptional durability and smooth operation
- Each knob is polished and finished by hand
- Made for both right and left handed doors
- Designed for quick and easy installation
- Features a concealed mounting system with no fasteners visible to accumulate dirt and debris
- Provided with an adjustable backset latch
- Includes a limited lifetime warranty
- Baldwin products feature the highest quality and craftsmanship that has been respected for generations
Solid Forged Brass Construction: All Baldwin hardware begins with raw bars of solid brass which are heated, and pounded into specially made dies—producing a stronger, more substantial product. The difference between lesser metals and heat forged brass is noticeable the minute you hold it in your hands—solid brass is heavier, smoother, and naturally resists corrosion.
Premium Estate Latch: An industry standard, Baldwin's Estate latch features a 28 degree rotation providing for easier turning and smoother operation than latches utilizing a 40 degree rotation. Each lever-strength latch also includes heavy-duty springs to offset the weighty construction that accompanies solid forged brass. Further, each Baldwin latch comes with an anti-friction insert that allows for nearly silent closing while also greatly reducing strike plate scratches.
Lifetime Finishes™: Baldwin's multi-patented Lifetime Finishes™ provide unprecedented protection against the effects of weather, normal wear and tear, and even the rigorous test of coastal salt air. By adapting the vapor deposition processed used to create premium gold pens, Baldwin creates a unique surface across your door hardware that is guaranteed to withstand the ravages of time.
Living Finishes: Baldwin Living Finishes, which include Non-Lacquered Brass, Vintage Brass, Oil Rubbed Bronze, and Distressed Oil Rubbed Bronze, are designed to mimic the patina of a well-loved piece of vintage hardware, and as such will change and adapt over time naturally. For those who appreciate the well-worn look of aged door hardware, but still require the strength and durability of a Baldwin finish, Living Finishes are an ideal fit.
Concealed Screws: Baldwin Estate Collection knobs and rosettes (with the exception of medium rosette models R028, R031, R034, R037, R040, and R043) install cleanly on both the interior and exterior of the door, completely concealing all screws required for the installation. All you'll ever see is the door, and the hardware you've chosen for it—seamlessly co-existing.

The government is studying recommendations for enactment of a law which will recognise and regulate paralegals in the country, in a drive to assist poor Tanzanians and vulnerable groups to access justice.
The move was revealed by the Deputy Minister for Justice and Constitutional Affairs, Angellah Jasmine Kairuki, during the official launching of a special funding mechanism, dubbed "Legal Services Facility (LSF)".
She said the Law Reform Commission of Tanzania conducted a thorough research on the use of paralegals to provide the services including representing people in courts of law and presented its recommendations to the government.
The deputy minister also said the government has formed a special task force to lay foundation for the enactment of comprehensive legal aid legislation.
The task force according to the deputy minister is currently conducting an in-depth study of the national, regional and international legal and regulatory frameworks practiced in different African countries — including Uganda, Malawi, Kenya, Zambia and South Africa.
"I hope that very soon we will have in place a legal framework that will, among other things, oversee provision of legal aid services in Tanzania," said minister Kairuki, adding: "At this juncture, let me express my gratitude to the Legal Services Facility for extending financial support to the Task force in discharging its duties."
She expressed the hope that LSF will enable Tanzanians, especially the poor and vulnerable to access justice, noting: "Justice is a basic human right. Without access to justice, the enjoyment of many other fundamental rights may be assumed."
An initiative of the governments of Tanzania and Denmark, the facility has been designed to enhance access to reliable funds, grants for legal aid service providers in the country.
Kees Groenendijk, LSF Fund Manager, said the facility was created to channel funding on an equal opportunity basis, to organisations involved in the provision of legal aid and paralegal services on Tanzania Mainland and Zanzibar.
"It is to enable these organisations to assist the poor and vulnerable creatures to claim their rights, redress grievances and protect their fundamental rights," noted the fund manager.
The main objective of LSF, according to Groenendijk, was to promote and protect human rights for all, particularly for poor women, children and men and the vulnerable, including people living with HIV/AIDs.
For his part, the Danish Ambassador to Tanzania, Johnny Flento, said there were many poor Tanzanians needing legal services, but cannot afford services offered by an advocate.
Most of these people go to legal aid providers and paralegals, key instrumentals in assisting poor individuals, but they are unable to afford legal services, he said.
LSF Board Chairperson, Joaquine De-Mello, said LSF was not a completely new idea in achieving "access to justice" in Tanzania, but "a specific intervention by the government of Denmark to compliment what has been done by various stakeholders, the government inclusive."

Given the dire financial straits we are in, it seems reasonable to ask that those who pay nothing begin to pay something to help lift us out of this mess. There may even be enough potential revenue from these tax-exempt properties to eliminate any need for other tax increases and service cutbacks. A general reduction of all property taxes may even be possible. These organizations are also exempt from state sales taxes, so eliminating that would generate still more revenue.
Would these organizations be substantially harmed by removing their tax exemptions? Probably not. Many smaller non-profits lease or rent their facilities, so they already pay taxes through their lease/rent arrangements. Those that depend on donations would surely see enough increases there to cover their tax costs, assuming their services are valued enough to generate donations at all. It would help enormously if the potential revenue available were published so citizens could evaluate the worth of this proposal.

Dixon Ticonderoga by our side, we walk the earth at ¼" to the foot…
When a potential client comes to us for the first time, it is a bit disconcerting for them to spend a lot of money on a project that, in all likelihood, has never been done before. It's not like buying a bag of onions at the grocery store. It takes us educating the client, and earning their trust. This is where design plays a crucial role.
It's the job of our designers (working in concert with our Project Managers), to prove to you why we do what we do.
Why did we use plastic instead of wood?
Why did we galvanize the steel first?
Why shouldn't there be a slide right next to the monkey bars?
Why are there only chocolate donuts?
For every action we take in design, there is a reason for it, often based on past experience. So it is our job to educate you as to the decisions we make, and why they are good for your project. After we do that, little by little, we start to earn your trust.
Our ultimate goal is to earn your trust.
A conversation becomes a sketch
becomes a digital model
becomes a package of shop drawings
becomes an amazing project that will knock the socks off of you and your guests

Idaho Power has named Horizon Wind Energy as the successful bidder for the development of a wind generation project in Oregon identified in the company's 2004 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP). The 66-MW project will be built in Union County, Ore., near the community of North Powder and is expected to be online no later than the end of 2007.
The project will connect to Idaho Power Company's 230kV line that runs from La Grande, Ore., to Brownlee in Idaho and will serve the growing needs of Idaho Power's customers. The project will be located on private lands used primarily for cattle grazing. Horizon developed this project from inception over the past four years and has over 30,000 acres under option with the potential for 300 MW to 400 MW in the area.
Horizon also announced that construction of the Twin Groves Wind Farm (formerly called Arrowsmith) has begun. The first phase of Twin Groves is expected to be commercially operational in the first quarter of 2007.
The project is located in McLean County, approximately 20 miles east of Bloomington, Ill. A total of 240 wind turbines are planned to generate 400 MW. The first phase of Twin Groves is expected to be 200 MW, using 120 1.65-MW Vestas V82 turbines.

Aurora Police Chief Dan Oates joined more than a dozen law enforcement leaders from across the country in a meeting with President Barack Obama at the White House on Monday to discuss what the federal government can do to help reduce gun violence nationwide.
Oates did not respond to requests for comment about the meeting, which set in motion a complex situation between the chief and the city.
Earlier this month, the Aurora City Council created a three-member panel charged with determining official city positions on state- and federal-level gun legislation.
The gun debate has intensified, and as state and national leaders have looked to Aurora for guidance in the wake of the July 20 shooting at the Century Aurora theater, the council decided it needed a unified voice.
So can Oates take a position on proposed gun legislation?
"He can personally," said Councilwoman Barb Cleland, who sits on the Public and Intergovernmental Relations Committee. "But he absolutely can't for the city of Aurora."
Aurora Mayor Steve Hogan has said he will not take a stance on any gun legislation, deferring instead to the committee.
Cleland said Monday the committee has not taken official positions on any of the gun-law proposals being floated at the statehouse and in Congress.
State Democrats are pressing for similar reform efforts to Obama's and are set to present them in the next two weeks. Some Republican lawmakers have already presented gun legislation.
After the meeting with law enforcement, Obama pressed Congress to work with his administration to pass tougher gun laws that restrict access to assault weapons and high-capacity magazines and that require universal background checks on all firearms sales.

The Paper Mill Store Reaches Sixth Year CarbonFree® Shipping
One and a half million pounds of carbon dioxide emissions – it's a large number with huge environmental impact – the equivalent of the carbon dioxide sequestered by 17,500 tree seedlings if planted and allowed to grow for ten years.
It's also the quantity of carbon dioxide emissions that the Paper Mill Store has neutralized over the past six years through its CarbonFree® Shipping Program. Beginning in 2008, the Paper Mill Store partnered with Carbonfund.org to calculate all greenhouse gas emissions from their outbound product shipments each quarter, then neutralize those emissions by supporting renewable energy projects like 100% wind-generated electricity.
"We began using 100% wind power for our electricity needs through the purchase of renewable energy credits back in 2006," says Brian J. Cowie, C.E.O. and founder of The Paper Mill Store. "We believe that wind power is a smart choice and a significant part of the solution towards cleaner air, water and a step in the direction of energy independence. The carbon offset initiative for outbound shipments is a natural extension of that commitment."
The CarbonFree® Shipping program is one in a number of important steps that the Paper Mill Store is taking to run their company in a more sustainable and responsible manner. The company also is certified through both the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and the Sustainable Forest Initiative (SFI) Chain of Custody protocols.When purchasing their FSC and SFI certified paper and envelopes, customers can be certain that the fiber used to manufacture certified paper and envelopes came from well managed forests where people, wildlife and the environment benefit from the forestry practices.
This commitment echoes the Paper Mill Store's nature-focused location. Their five-acre campus includes a pond clustered with over 100 tree varieties. Employees enjoy watching a mix of wildlife on the property including fox, coyote, hawks, deer, great blue heron, kingfishers, rabbits and more. The natural setting inspires the company's continued dedication to providing eco-conscious products with CarbonFree® shipping to customers and underscores the company's industry leadership in sustainability.
Eagle-Eye Tours Focuses on Birding and Wildlife Adventures While Neutralizing Carbon Emissions
As is the case with many of our eco-tourism business partners, Eagle-Eye Tours of Windermere, Canada recognizes the environmental impact of their educational tour programs and is doing something about it. Eagle-Eye Tours covers the globe with diverse tours, ranging from ones with a birding focus to tours combining photography and wildlife, birds and gardens and more, visiting some of the wildest corners of our planet. Tour travel and onsite lodging creates carbon dioxide emissions, which Eagle-Eye Tours works to minimize but also realizes that all emissions cannot be avoided.
To address this negative by-product of their tours, Eagle-Eye Tours has maintained a CarbonFree® operation for the past five years by calculating annual tour-related emissions then supporting Carbonfund.org's clean air technology and carbon reduction projects to neutralize those emissions. To date, Eagle-Eye Tours has mitigated almost 2 million pounds of carbon dioxide emissions through their CarbonFree® program, equivalent to the amount of carbon dioxide sequestered by almost 23,000 tree seedlings planted and grown for ten years.
"We travel the world enjoying birds and other wildlife, but realize that many of these species are threatened by climate change," explains Cam Gillies, Director of Eagle-Eye Tours. "We are excited to continue to offset the carbon emissions from our operations and to take concrete action in the conservation of the biodiversity we so enjoy."
Eagle-Eye Tours offsets all of the carbon dioxide emissions produced from all guide and on-tour participant flights, vehicle use during tours and operations, ship use, and the electricity used by their office. They also design tours that visit reserves and lodges that have been established to demonstrate and deliver benefits from conservation to the local community. Eagle- Eye Tours offers tour participants the option to help with environmental sustainability by offsetting flights from their departure to the start of the tour. This ongoing commitment to sustainable tour management helps to set apart Eagle-Eye Tours as a leader in ecotourism and demonstrated environmental responsibility in all aspects of their operation.

Afghanistan's president says all U.S. special forces must leave eastern Wardak province within two weeks because of allegations that Afghans working with them are torturing and abusing other Afghans.
Presidential spokesman Aimal Faizi says Sunday's decision was taken during a meeting of the National Security Council because of the alleged actions of Afghans who are linked to the U.S. special forces.
He said the government wants the individuals, whom he did not identify, to be handed over to the government.
Wardak is a restive province next to Kabul and has been the focus of counterinsurgency efforts.

In Season 2 Sansa Stark remains a major character.
The North Remembers
Sansa watches The Hound fights an unnamed opponent atop the walls of the Red Keep during a tourney to celebrate King Joffrey Baratheon's name day. His mace rains blows down on his smaller adversary, knocking aside his shield, disarming him and then knocking him over the edge of the wall. The knight falls hard into the courtyard below. Joffrey rushes forward from his pavilion to look down on the fallen man. He shouts congratulations to the Hound and then asks Sansa Stark if she enjoyed the duel. Sansa, Joffrey's captive, is deferent and subdued. Princess Myrcella Baratheon and Prince Tommen Baratheon are also seated in the pavilion.[1]
The defeated knight is dragged away by his legs, leaving a smear of blood on the courtyard floor. A servant carries a bucket over to clean up. Joffrey asks who will fight next and his announcer responds by calling Lothor Brune, describing him as a freerider in the service of Lord Petyr Baelish, and Ser Dontos the Red, of House Hollard. Lothor brandishes his mace to cheers from the crowd while Dontos fails to emerge and the announcer calls for him again. Hollard emerges from the wrong side of the pavilion. He is ill equipped and drops his helmet. He apologises and Joffrey accuses him of drunkenness. Dontos denies the accusation but admits to drinking two cups of wine. Joffrey offers Dontos as much wine as he likes and Dontos accepts. Joffrey orders Ser Meryn Trant of the Kingsguard to ensure that Dontos drinks his fill. Dontos and two of his sworn brothers hold Dontos down and pour wine into his mouth through a funnel. Sansa cries out "You can't." Joffrey is incensed, but she claims that she meant it would be bad luck for Joffrey to kill someone on his name day. Joffrey is dismissive of this superstition until the Hound backs Sansa. Joffrey reluctantly orders Dontos to be imprisoned until the following day, planning to execute him then and calling him a fool. In an effort to spare Dontos from execution, Sansa says that Joffrey was clever to notice Dontos' foolishness and entreats him to prolong his suffering by making him the court fool.[1]
What is Dead May Never Die
Cersei hosts an awkward dinner for her Tommen, Myrcella and Sansa. Myrcella asks when Sansa and Joffrey will wed and Cersei tells her that it will be after the war. Myrcella remarks on the new dress she will have made for the day and then says that Sansa's will be ivory as the bride. Cersei prompts Sansa to respond and Sansa summons her usual line of devotion to Joffrey. Tommen asks if Joffrey is going to kill Sansa's brother Robb. Cersei says that he might and asks if Tommen wants him to. Tommen says that he does not and Cersei says that if Joffrey does Sansa will do her duty anyway. Sansa chokes down her helpless anger.[2]
In her chambers Sansa looks at herself in the mirror and is startled when Shae enters. Shae explains that she is Sansa's new handmaiden. Sansa is doubtful of her experience when she does not know what she should be doing. Shae claims that she was once a maid for a Lady Zourif. Sansa is dismissive as she knows no-one of that name in King's Landing and expects the local standard. She vents her frustration on Shae, saying that she does not have time to teach her how to do her job. Shae offers to leave but Sansa realizes her loneliness and asks Shae to brush her hair.[2]
Garden of Bones
Joffrey aims an ornate crossbow at Sansa in the Iron Throne room. He says that she is there to answer for Robb's treasons. She denies having any involvement in Robb's actions, calling Robb a traitor. Joffrey instructs Ser Lancel Lannister to tell her of Robb's latest outrage. Lancel claims that Robb used sorcery and an army of wolves to kill thousands of men under the command of Stafford. He adds that the Northmen feasted on the flesh of the slain after the slaughter drawing cries of outrage and horror from the courtiers. Joffrey suggests that killing Sansa would send Robb a message, but lowers his bow citing his mothers insistence that Sansa be kept alive. He orders her to stand and says they will send Robb a message in a different way. He orders Ser Meryn Trant of the Kingsguard to beat Sansa but spare her face. Meryn punches Sansa and then knocks her over using the flat of his sword. Joffrey orders Sansa stripped and Meryn tears her dress from her shoulders.[3]
Tyrion Lannister enters with Bronn and demands an explanation. He asks Meryn what kind of knight beats a helpless girl and Meryn says the kind that follows their king. Bronn sarcastically warns Meryn to be careful of getting blood on his white cloak. Tyrion orders Sansa covered and reminds Joffrey that he is engaged to marry her. Sandor Clegane tears off his white cloak and gives it to Sansa. Joffrey says that he was punishing her. Tyrion wonders what crimes she committed and elucidates that she did not fight in Robb's battle, calling Joffrey a half wit. Joffrey asserts that he can do as he likes as king. Tyrion reminds Joffrey of the fate of the Mad King, who ruled without regard for the consequences of his actions until he was killed by Jaime. Meryn warns Tyrion not to threaten Joffrey and Tyrion counters that he is educating his nephew. He orders Bronn to kill Meryn if he speaks again and tells Meryn that he has now made a threat. Tyrion helps Sansa up and walks her out of the throne room. He apologizes for Joffrey's behaviour and asks if she wants to end the engagement. She asserts her loyalty and love for Joffrey. Tyrion calls her Lady Stark and says that she may yet survive her captivity.[3]
The Old Gods and the New
Princess Myrcella Baratheon is rowed away from the docks of King's Landing to a ship waiting at anchor to take her to Dorne. She is accompanied by Septa Eglantine and Ser Arys Oakheart of the Kingsguard. Her departure is watched by her mother Queen Cersei Lannister, Tyrion Lannister, the remainder of the Kingsguard, various nobles and her brothers King Joffrey Baratheon and Prince Tommen Baratheon. The |High Septon prays for a safe journey for her. Myrcella sobs as she moves away from her family. A septa dries Tommen's tears. Joffrey criticizes his brother's behaviour as unfitting for a prince. Sansa Stark murmurs that she has seen Joffrey cry. He turns on her and asks what she said. She says that Rickon cried when she left Winterfell and that it seems normal to her. Joffrey dismisses this as irrelevant because Rickon is not a prince. Joffrey leads the Kingsguard away.[4]
On re-entering the city Joffrey is met by an unruly crowd of smallfolk. A man calls for seven blessings on Joffrey. Sansa trails behind Joffrey and his Kingsguard. Another man calls out "All Hail the King." The crowd cheers as someone calls out he's a bastard. Cersei follows behind Sansa and her attention is caught by the jeering crowd. Another citizen shouts out that they are hungry. Tyrion enters the street with Tommen and several Lannister guardsmen. Sensing the atmosphere he orders them to return Tommen to the Red Keep via another route. The people call out to Joffrey for food. He is struck in the face by thrown cow excrement. His guards draw their swords and the Gold Cloaks attempt to keep the smallfolk back with their spears. Joffrey demands that they find the culprit as the Gold Cloaks start to beat one of the crowd. Joffrey then calls for his men to kill all of the smallfolk present. The crowd begins to riot, attacking the guards with rocks. The kingsguard kill anyone who approaches Joffrey. Cersei and Tyrion are each defended by Lannister guardsmen and Tyrion urges his sister onwards. Sandor Clegane grabs his king and pulls him through the mob. Joffrey asks what they are doing and repeats his order to execute the people. Sandor explains that the rioters want the same for Joffrey. Sansa is undefended and attempts to push through the crowd with two other ladies. The High Septon is overwhelmed by the mob and torn to pieces. Tyrion calls for Sansa but cannot see her.[4]
Sandor hands off Joffrey to one of his sworn brothers to fight the rioters. The Kingsguard kill several more rioters as they drag Joffrey to safety behind a gate. The Kingsguard push Joffrey inside and turn to defend the entrance. Queen Cersei and Tyrion are next inside. Sansa is separated from the group and chased down a back alley by four men.[4]
Sansa runs into a deserted room, closely pursued by her assailants. She slaps their leader and he backhands her, knocking her to the ground. The men grab her and the leader asks if she has "ever been fucked." He grabs her leg and turns her over.[4]
Sansa's assailants rip her clothes off and pin her down. Their leader prepares to rape her. Sandor grabs the man by the shoulder and spins him around. He then lifts him off the ground by his throat and disembowels him. He kills another of her assailants and then stops a third as he attempts to run away. He cuts the man's throat as he begs for mercy. He leaves the last man cowering in the corner as he helps Sansa up. He calls her "Little Bird" and reassures her that she is alright now. He puts her over his shoulder and carries her to safety.[4]
Sandor carries Sansa into the safety of the gated area. Tyrion asks if she is hurt and she shakes her head. Sandor says that the little bird is bleeding and asks someone to take her back to her cage and see to her cut. Tyrion congratulates Sandor and Sandor says that he did not do it for Tyrion.[4]
Shae treats Sansa's cuts in her chamber. Sansa says that she thought the rioters would kill her and Shae says that they thought the same. Sansa says that she could tell that the man who hit her hated her. She wonders why he wanted to hurt her despite not knowing her. Shae tells Sansa that the rioters hated her for being what they cannot have and points out that Sansa's horse eats better than a common man's children. Sansa says that she would have given them food if she had any and asserts that she hates the King more than the rioters. Shae warns her to be careful who she speaks to. Sansa says that she is safe talking to Shae and Shae warns her to trust no-one.[4]
A Man Without Honor
Sansa Stark seeks out Sandor Clegane inside the Red Keep of King's Landing. She thanks him for saving her during the riot and calls him brave. He deflects the compliment, saying that a dog doesn't need courage to chase off rats. She asks if he takes joy from scaring people. He says that it gives him joy to kill. She flinches and he tells her that her father Eddard Stark also killed people. She says that he only did it as his duty and never enjoyed it. Sandor wonders if that it was Eddard told her and asserts that he was lying to her. He expands that killing is the sweetest thing there is. She asks why he is always so hateful and he says that she will be glad of the hateful things he does when she is Queen and he is all that stands between her and her beloved King. Sansa turns and walks away.[5]
Sansa has a nightmare about being attacked during the riots. The man who was trying to rape her tries to stab her in the dream. Sansa awakens to find her bed bloodied by her first period. She desperately tries to conceal the evidence, fearing that her menarche will expose her to being forced to sleep with Joffrey Baratheon. She attempts to cut away the stained sheet with a cheese knife but finds that the blood has soaked through to the mattress. Shae discovers her and takes away the knife while trying to reassure her. Sansa explains her fears and Shae helps her, telling her to turn the mattress. Another Hand maid enters and sees what they are doing. She quickly goes to leave and Shae gives chase.[5]
Shae threatens her to ensure her silence and then returns. She discovers Sansa sat at the foot of her bed while the Hound stands over looking at the bloodied mattress.[5]
Sansa is summoned to Queen Cersei's chambers to discuss her reaction. Cersei wonders if Sansa's mother Catelyn Stark said anything to prepare her for her first period. Sansa says that she was forewarned thought it would be different and Cersei wonders how. Sansa says that she has thought it would be less messy and Cersei warns that childbirth is worse. She tells Sansa that she is now a woman and asks if she understands the implications. Sansa responds that she is fit to bear children for the King. Cersei senses her trepidation and reminds her that the prospect of mothering princes and princesses once delighted her. Cersei says that it is the greatest honor for a queen and Sansa nods meekly.[5]
Cersei regards her for a moment and then admits that Joffrey has always been difficult. Cersei reveals that she was in labour for a day and a half during his birth. She says that Sansa cannot imagine the pain she experienced and that she screamed so loudly that she was sure her late husband King Robert Baratheon would hear her from the Kingswood. Sansa wonders why Robert was not with her and Cersei explains that he was hunting and always avoided the birth of his children. Cersei says that he always returned with a trophy to present to her while she presented him with a baby. Cersei elucidates that she did not want Robert there and was content with Grand Maester Pycelle, an army of midwives and her brother Ser Jaime Lannister. She recalls that when the midwives tried to keep Jaime out he smiled and asked them who proposed to stop him. Cersei predicts that Joffrey will show Sansa no such devotion. She reassures Sansa that while she may not love the King she will love their children. Sansa says that she loves the King with all her heart. Cersei calls the lie touching and asks Sansa to listen to some womanly wisdom. She says that the more people you love the weaker you are. She says that love leads to obligations that you fulfil despite your own misgivings and foolishness. Cersei admonishes Sansa to love no-one but her children because a mother has no choice. Sansa asks if she should love Joffrey. Cersei responds that she can try, calling her "Little Dove."[5]
The Iron Throne room is lit by great flaming braziers as the men prepare for batt. Commander Bronn bows to the newly arrived Sansa and Shae on his way out of the throne room. Tyrion Lannister approaches the ladies. He greets Sansa and pretends to forget Shae's name. He checks that Sansa has been invited to join Cersei and the other highborn ladies in Maegor's Holdfast. Sansa affirms that she has but explains that King Joffrey has summoned her to see him off. Joffrey, the Hound and three other members of the Kingsguard enter from behind the throne. Joffrey calls Sansa over as Tyrion deadpans that Joffrey has always been a great romantic. Sansa says that she will pray for Tyrion's safe return. Tyrion doubts her and she says that she will pray just as she will for the king.[6]
Joffrey tells Sansa that he is riding forth for battle, referring to himself in the third person. He says that she should see him off with a kiss and draws his sword from its scabbard. He tells her that the blade is new and says that he has named it Hearteater. He orders her to kiss the sword. She kneels down to do so. Joffrey claims that Sansa will kiss it again when he returns and will taste his uncle's blood. Sansa asks if Joffrey will slay Stannis himself. Joffrey hesitantly says that he will if Stannis is fool enough to come near him. Sansa asks if Joffrey will be fighting outside the gates as part of the vanguard. Joffrey refuses to discuss his battle plans with a "stupid girl." Sansa apologizes and agrees that she is stupid before asserting that Joffrey would definitely be in the vanguard. She adds that her brother Robb always goes where the fighting is thickest and Robb is only a pretender. Joffrey says that Robb's turn will come and that Sansa can then lick his blood from Heart Eater. Joffrey leads his men out of the throne room and Sansa returns to Shae. Shae watches them leave and tells Sansa that some of the boys will never come back. Sansa replies that Joffrey will as the worst ones always live. Shae shushes her and leads her out.[6]
Cersei leads Tommen Baratheon and Ser Ilyn Payne through Maegor's Holdfast into a room is filled with ladies, septas and handmaids taking refuge from the battle. Sansa and Shae are already there and Sansa wonders why Cersei invited her. She says that Cersei always tells her how stupid she is and believes confides her belief that Cersei hates her. Shae suggests that Cersei may hate her less than she hates everyone else. Sansa says she doubts it and watches as Cersei's handmaid pours a glass of wine. Shae suggests that Cersei is jealous of Sansa and Sansa wonders what reason Cersei could have to be jealous of her.[6]
Cersei calls Sansa over to her bed on the dais. Cersei says that she had wondered where their little dove had flown and then observes that Sansa looks pale, asking if it is still her period. Sansa says that it is and Cersei says that it is fitting that the men will bleed out on the field of battle while Sansa bleeds in the room. Cersei orders her handmaid to pour Sansa some wine. Sansa says that she is not thirsty and Cersei insists, saying that she is not offering water. Sansa asks why Ser Ilyn is present. Cersei claims that he is there to defend them. Sansa says that they have guards and Cersei asserts that his loyalty goes beyond money while their guards will desert them at the first sign of trouble.[6]
Ser Mandon Moore enters and reports that the men have caught thieves attempting to escape. Cersei calls them the battle's first traitors. She orders Ser Ilyn to execute them and have their heads mounted on the stables as a warning to others. Cersei says that the only way to ensure the loyalty of the smallfolk is to make sure that they fear you more than they do the enemy. Sansa reminds Cersei that she claimed that Ser Ilyn was there to protect them. Cersei says that he is, telling Sansa that traitors are a danger to them all. Cersei calls for more wine.[6]
Sansa holds hands with several other women, sitting in a circle on the floor of the room. Cersei calls her over again. She asks Sansa what she is doing. Sansa tells her that she was praying and Cersei says that Sansa is perfect. She asks what they were praying for and Sansa says they were asking the gods to have mercy on them all. Cersei wonders if Sansa means all of them, including her. Sansa convincingly says "of course" and Cersei asks if she even means Joffrey. Sansa begins her usual lie about her love for the King. Cersei cuts her off, telling her to shut up and calling her a fool. Cersei mocks her faith and claims that the gods have no mercy. She reveals that her father taught her that lesson when he caught her praying as a child after the death of her mother. Cersei was too young to understand death aged just four and was imploring the gods to return her mother to her. Sansa wonders if Tywin does not believe in the gods. Cersei says that he believes in them but does not like them.[6]
Cersei orders another glass of wine for Sansa and invites her to sit. She orders Sansa to drink deeply. Cersei says that she should have been born a man. She claims that she would rather face a thousand swords than be shut inside with a flock of frightened hens. Sansa reminds her that the women are her guests, there under her protection because she invited them. Cersei retorts that she did it because it was expected of her. She says that Sansa will face similar expectations if she becomes Joffrey's queen. Cersei says that if Tyrion is somehow able to win the battle then the women will tell tales of how her courage inspired them, calling Tyrion her wretched little brother. Sansa wonders what will happen if the city should fall. Cersei suggests that Sansa would like that. Cersei predicts that the Red Keep would hold for a time, giving her an opportunity to surrender to Stannis in person. She says that if it were anyone but Stannis she would hope for a private audience but knows that she has no hope of seducing him. She asks if she has shocked Sansa and tells her captive that a woman has weapons other than tears. She tells Sansa that her best weapon is between her legs and she should learn how to use it. She again orders Sansa to drink and then asks if she has any notion what happens when a city is sacked. She muses that Sansa would not and elucidates that should the city fall all the women there will be raped. Cersei predicts that half of them will be carrying bastard children by the morning. She tells Sansa that she will be glad of her period then. Cersei asserts that when a man's blood is up from battle then any woman looks good, so Sansa will look like a slice of cake waiting to be eaten. Sansa is horrified and drinks deeply from her wine glass.[6]
Cersei tells Sansa that when she was little she looked so much like Jaime that even Tywin could not tell them apart. She could not understand why they were treated differently. She complains that while she was being taught to be a lady Jaime was being taught to fight. She says that Jaime was heir to Casterly Rock while she was sold to a stranger like a horse. Sansa reminds her that the marriage made her queen of the Seven Kingdoms. Cersei counters that Sansa will be Joffrey's queen and invites her to enjoy it.[6]
Cersei notices Shae watching them from across the room and says that she has not seen her before. Cersei approaches Shae and calls her pretty. Shae stands and attempts to curtsey. Cersei calls it the worst she has ever seen and demonstrates how to do it properly. Shae mimics her movements and Cersei says that she learns quickly. She asks how long Shae has served Sansa and Shae tells her it has been just a few weeks. Cersei instantly recognizes her Lorathi accent and asks when she left there. Cersei does not wait for an answer and observes that Shae is lowborn. Shae's smile fades and Cersei asks when she came to Westeros. Shae says that it was ten years ago. Cersei wonders how Shae went from a Lorathi commoner to the Red Keep in ten years without being able to curtsey. She asks Shae's name and asks her to tell her story. Shae hesitates and then begins at the age of thirteen.[6]
Shae is rescued by the arrival of Lancel. He bursts in shouting for Cersei. He reports Tyrion's destruction of the fleet and the landing of Stannis's troops. Cersei orders him to bring Joffrey inside. He objects saying that the presence of the King is good for morale. Cersei again tells Lancel to bring Joffrey back to his chambers. Lancel wonders why not to her side and she sarcastically asks if he wants Joffrey to be mocked as a coward for hiding behind his mother's skirts.[6]
Cersei sits back down and reveals to Sansa that she lied about Ser Ilyn's purpose. She holds out an unsteady arm for more wine as she explains that he is there to kill them should the Red Keep be breached.[6]
Lancel returns to Cersei and tells her that the battle has been lost. He says that Stannis's troops are at their gates and that the goldcloaks lost all heart when Joffrey left. Cersei asks where Joffrey is. Lancel does not answer and instead says that he wants to escort him back to the battle. Cersei asks why she should care what Lancel wants. Lancel asks her to listen. She stands and pushes his wounded side. He falls back into a stone pillar, screaming in pain. Cersei leads Tommen out of the room.[6]
Sansa comforts the panicked women. She reassures them that with the drawbridge raised they are in the safest place they can be. She says that Joffrey is unhurt and his knights have rallied behind him to save the city. She asks them to sing a hymn with her. She begins and the others join her. Shae interrupts her and tells her to bar herself in her chamber. Shae says that Stannis will not hurt her but Ser Ilyn will. Sansa asks Shae to come with her. Shae says that she needs to say goodbye to someone. Sansa repeats Cersei's prediction that all of them will be raped. Shae says that no-one will rape her and shows Sansa a small dagger strapped to her calf. She urges Sansa on and Sansa complies.[6]
Sansa returns to her chamber and bars the door. She picks up the doll that Eddard gave her on their arrival in King's Landing. Sandor startles her by speaking. He asks if the ladies are starting to panic. She wonders why he is there. He says that he won't be there long and is going. She asks where and he says somewhere that isn't burning. He suggests north perhaps. Sansa asks about Joffrey and Sandor says that he can die on his own. He offers to take her with him and return her to Winterfell. He says that he can keep her safe if she wants to go home. Sansa replies that she will be safe there and Stannis will not hurt her. He forcefully tells her to look at him, frightening her. He says that Stannis and the Lannisters are killers. He says that Eddard was a killer and Robb is a killer. He says that her sons will be the same one day. He tells her that the world is built by killers so she should get used to looking at them. Sansa says that he will not hurt her. He agrees, calling her Little bird. He lets her go and then walks out of the room.[6]
Stannis's force is ultimately defeated by a host of House Lannister and House Tyrell reinforcements led by Tywin Lannister.[6]
Valar Morghulis
Sansa attends court as |Joffrey honors the heroes of the battle. The throne room doors open and Lord Tywin Lannister trots into the room atop his horse. Joffrey formally recites his titles and proclaims Tywin the savior of the city and the Hand of the King. The hand's badge is presented to Tywin and he curtly thanks Joffrey before turning his horse and riding out.[7]
Joffrey calls Lord Petyr Baelish forward. He awards him the castle of Harrenhal for his service to the realm in brokering the alliance between House Lannister and House Tyrell. Joffrey formally says that the castle and the lordship will be held by Pety's sons and grandsons until the end of time. Petyr accepts and jokes that he will need to acquire some sons to the amusement of the court.[7]
Next Joffrey calls Ser Loras Tyrell who kneels before the throne. Joffrey says that the realm is in the debt of House Tyrell and offers to grant them any favor they ask. Loras tells Joffrey that the husband of his sister Margaery Tyrell was taken from them, referring to his lover Renly Baratheon. Loras falters for a moment, asserts that Margaery remains innocent and then asks Joffrey to unite their houses through marriage. Joffrey asks Margaery if the marriage is what she wants. Sansa watches the exchange from the gallery.[7]Margaery steps forward and says that she wants the marriage with all her heart, claiming that she has come to love Joffrey from afar. She says that tales of Joffrey's courage and wisdom have reached her and taken root deep inside of her. Joffrey smiles at his mother Queen Regent Cersei Lannister as Margaery speaks. He responds by telling Margaery that he has heard tales of her beauty and grace but that they do not do her justice. Joffrey says that it would be an honor to return her love but points out that he is promised to another. He asserts that a king must keep his word.[7]
Cersei intervenes theatrically to assert that the small council have agreed that it would be improper for Joffrey to wed Sansa. She cites the status of Sansa's father, Eddard Stark, as an attainted traitor executed for treason and her brother Robb Stark's ongoing open rebellion against the throne. Cersei says that Joffrey must set Sansa aside for the good of the realm. The court responds with murmured support. Joffrey halts the chatter by standing. He says that he would like to heed the wishes of the small council and his people but has taken a holy vow. Pycelle steps forward and says that while the gods hold betrothal solemn, the marriage pact was made by Joffrey's father, King Robert Baratheon before House Stark revealed their falseness. Pycelle announces that the High Septon has agreed that the Starks' crimes against the realm free Joffrey from the vow in the view of the gods. Joffrey says that the gods are good and that he is free to follow his heart. He tells Loras that he will wed his sister and tells Margaery that he will love her until his last day. The court erupts in applause. Margaery and Loras glance at Sansa as Joffrey returns to his throne.[7]
Sansa walks out of the gallery, allowing herself a private laugh at having escaped marriage to Joffrey. Petyr interrupts her rejoicing to offer his condolences. Sansa says that she agrees with the view of the court that she is not good enough for Joffrey. Petyr warns that Sansa will remain good enough for many of Joffrey's pleasures including beating her. Petyr alludes to Joffrey raping her now that she has reached womanhood. Sansa suggests that now that they are not engaged Joffrey will let her go. Petyr says that Joffrey is not the sort of boy to give away his toys. He compares Sansa to her mother Catelyn Stark at the same age and says that Catelyn was like a sister to him. He offers to help Sansa to return home for Catelyn's sake. Sansa hesitates and then asserts that King's Landing is her home. Petyr tells her to look around, saying that the court are all liars and that all of them are better at it than Sansa.[7]

- This article refers to the "Dozer" in GTA San Andreas. For a similarly named "Bulldozer" in GTA Vice City Stories and GTA Chinatown Wars, see Bulldozer.
The DUDE Dozer is a heavy earth-moving vehicle in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
The Dozer is designed as a four-wheel front loader. Obviously, the vehicle is devoid of any luxuries, and is depicted with an open driver compartment with no doors, leaving the player vulnerable to being pulled out of the vehicle by hostile NPCs; the Dozer is also equipped with an adjustable scoop. The color is only available in a blue-greenish color.
The Dozer is very large and heavy, and therefore has a slow top speed; the Dozer also features rear wheel steering, meaning that it is pushed into turns instead of pulled, making for a very small turning radius, although this also makes the Dozer more vulnerable to tailspins if in higher speeds. Its movable scoop can be used to plow through a bunch of other cars, which is no problem for this vehicle; as its weight and torque make it nearly unstoppable.
Due to its bottom-heavy design, the Dozer is designed to rest upright after a flip. This feature is very useful in Hunter Quarry's Quarry missions, as players can drive and flip the vehicle down several tiers of the quarry without the risk of having the vehicle resting on its top or side.
It shares the same engine sound as the Walton and the Tractor.
- One can be obtained at the Angel Pine Junkyard in Angel Pine, Whetstone
- Spawns in the mission, Deconstruction
- In Hunter Quarry, Bone County after completing the side-mission
- At a construction site in Rockshore West, Las Venturas
- If you try to tow a Dozer with a Towtruck, and you turn sharply in any direction, the Towtruck and Dozer may be suddenly thrown in opposite directions with great force. Sometimes, the Towtruck can actually be hurled up into the air with great force, or it can suddenly appear in Blue Hell.
- It's movable scoop can be raised and lowered by the player when desired.
- The Dozer is the only construction vehicle which lacks the radio.
- If you use the Dozer against vehicles, they won't have visual injuries.
- The name is probably just short for bulldozer, but it could also reference the fact that it is slow, as doze sometimes means to sleep.

The Maine State Chamber of Commerce is supporting all four bonds on the November ballot, while the Mid Maine Chamber is opposing two.
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) _ While the U.S. Senate race and other high-profile contests dominate Maine's campaign scene, advocates for the four bond issues on the Nov. 6 ballot are quietly working to get the support of voters.
The Maine State Chamber of Commerce, which represents 5,000 businesses, is supporting all four bonds. President Dana Connors says they're all good for the economy.
The Mid Maine Chamber of Commerce is opposing two of the borrowing proposals - $11.3 million for capital improvements for state higher education systems, and a $7.2 million bond for water and sewer upgrades. But the Waterville-based chamber group is supporting the $51 million bond issue for highways, bridges and other transportation projects.
The fourth bond, $5 million for land conservation, has the support of the Sportsman's Alliance of Maine.
