Norwood, Massachusetts (PressExposure) December 28, 2011 -- What's the value of a good idea? The answer is nothing. That's according to American scientist and inventor Thomas Edison, who once said, "The value of an idea lies in the using of it." Ideas become powerful when they are put to work.
PCT's second annual Companies to Watch special report highlights 25 companies that are putting good ideas to work to achieve their business goals. EHS is being recognized for their technological advancements (website, computer technology, training-educational offerings, and social media sites) and their award winning customer service techniques.
"We are extremely honored to have been selected. It is truly a team effort at EHS and we are always looking for innovative ideas that will help us continue to deliver exceptional service to our clients", said George Williams Jr., A.C.E., General Manager-Staff Entomologist for EHS, Inc.
Environmental Health Services, Inc. was established in 1986 and is a leading pest management provider serving residential and commercial consumers in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. EHS pioneered concepts such as preventive exclusion and utilization of low impact products which have now become industry standards.
EHS believes there is strong value in providing a solution rather than a band aid approach (treating the symptoms) to any pest problem.
Using these simple ideals EHS has since become one of Massachusetts' and Rhode Island's most respected pest management companies. From the in-house staff training by provided by our board certified entomologist to the educational seminars we offer to our clients, EHS is a firm believer that knowledge and understanding are the keys to keeping our families healthy and our environment sustainable.
"We conceived and developed the Pest Control Company on the very same Green principles that we embrace today. It was just plain old-fashioned common sense. Clients liked what we offered back then. A professional company that was willing to take extra time to seal an entry point in their home to solve the problem. EHS still operates on these very principles today. Our goal wasn't to be the largest company in New England, just the best." - John Stellberger

Joanne and Stuart were at married at St Peter's Church, Edgmond and went on to the beautiful hidden gem that is Leighton Hall .
Joanne and Stuart had gone the extra mile in making sure that the venues for their wedding were perfect and it really paid dividends. St Peters is a beautiful country church and the people so welcoming it was lovely to work there, I hope I get to shoot there again soon and Leighton Hall is an amazing wedding venue totally secluded and exclusive, with a family run feel.
It was a great day to photograph and I wish them both a life of love and happines, David.
P.S – There engangment shoot was recently featured on the www.whimsicalwonderlandweddings.com wedding blog, we had lots of fun shooting it and I hope it relaxed them for the photography on the wedding day.

Discussion in 'Super Paper Mario' started by jodia, Oct 25, 2007.
does anyone know how to get out of a chapter they already beat in super paper mario?
i don't have super paper mario
what do you mean? If you beat it, then you have to bring the pure heart to flopside (or flipside depending on what level you are on) to a heart pillar. Once you put the pure heart in the heart pillar, a new level opens up...
is that what you are asking?
I ened chapter 3-4 and had to go back to put the heart in the pillar and didnt do it right. Now I am in chapter 3-2 with the water and I want out of there
what do you mean you didnt do it right? Did you put the pure heart in the hear pillar or not?
I talked to Barry behind the bush for the second time and now he is one of my pixls and thats it.
barry? I dont remember getting barry as a pixl?
so you never actually put a heart in the heart pillar? That's what you have to do to open up the next level. Go to the psychic...she will give you hints as to where the heart pillar is...
I love how the first post in threads is always "I dont have that" or "I dont know"
really helpful isn't it? :lol:
Barry is a pixl u get when u fight that chameleon thing. but what i don't get is how u can't put the pure heart in the heart pillar?
There is a forum for this. You don't get Barry the first time through Chapter 3, Barry is the Pixl that jumps out from behind the bush when Tippi gets stolen at the start of Chapter 3. When you beat Chapter 3 and have placed the heart in the heart pillar, you can go back to Chapter 3 and next time you talk to Barry he will join your party.
If you want to get out, use the return pipe. Should work
or just finish the WHOLE chapter again
i already know that u can't get barry in the begining of the chp.
no stuped comments or ill' Flower Power you in the face.

Department of Energy and Climate Change – Powers of Entry Review
- From:
- Department of Energy & Climate Change

- Reviews of all powers of entry and Energy industry and infrastructure licensing and regulation
- Published:
- 27 November 2014
This was published under the 2010 to 2015 Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government
DECC (with Ofgem where applicable) reviewed its 58 Powers of Entry to meet the requirement in section 42 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012.

A power of entry is a right for a person (usually a state official such as a police officer, local authority trading standards officer or a member of enforcement staff of a regulatory body) to legally enter defined premises, such as businesses, vehicles or land for specific purposes.
On 11 February 2011, the Prime Minister announced the introduction of the Protection of Freedoms Bill as part of the government's civil liberties and freedoms agenda. The bill received royal assent and became law on 1 May 2012. The act includes reforms to rationalise powers of entry relating to domestic, commercial and other types of premises.
The provisions contained in the act provide the 'tools' needed to:
- repeal unnecessary powers of entry
- add safeguards to powers where they are weak or missing
- consolidate groups of similar powers to improve transparency, heighten safeguards and remove duplication
DECC (with Ofgem where applicable) reviewed its 58 Powers of Entry to meet the requirement in section 42 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012.
These powers sit across energy and climate change policy, for example:
- Energy suppliers and network operators have Powers of Entry to maintain their infrastructure;
- Others are exercised in emergency situations;
- Some Powers of Entry are used by DECC to monitor the environmental standards of offshore oil and gas facilities.
Following the review of the Powers of Entry owned by DECC, six powers were scrapped; two irrelevant powers were identified that cannot be formally repealed or revoked because licences are still in place that rely on them; four powers had additional safeguards added; one new power was introduced; and 45 powers were left unchanged. DECC now has 52 Powers of Entry.

There was an infection going around that no medical doctor would acknowledge. To them, it was just a virus. At least, that's what Lucy was told.
Lucy Blake considered herself an aficionado of vampires. She wrote articles for a Goth/vampire magazine, blogged, read all the books, did all of the research, and watched all of the shows, including the classics. But to Lucy, they stayed in the realm of fiction. She did not believe they were real - not until the night she was bitten. She was infected with the deadly bite of a vampire and slowly transitioned into one of the dark creatures of the night.

"Fire this narrator!"
I'm sure this book was good, but the narrator did such a bad job that I didn't even make it past the 1st chapter. She completely destroyed any imagery created by the author by stumbling over words, mumbling and even backtracking to sentences she missed!
I didn't get to the end!
I think Bite Me needs a re-do with a competent narrator.

Evaluating System Deployment with Deployment Designer
Deployment Designer provides a designer surface for defining and validating deployment for a specific application system to a specific logical datacenter. This designer also highlights the communication benefits in the System Definition Model (SDM) that is the underlying model for Distributed System Designers. In Deployment Designer, you can define deployment for a system by binding each application in the system to a specific logical server in the logical datacenter. Once you define deployment for a system, you can validate that deployment at any time. Validating deployment for a system helps you accomplish the following tasks:
Confirm that all applications in the system are bound.
Check that applications meet the application constraints specified on the logical datacenter diagram.
Check that logical servers meet the hosting constraints specified on the application diagram and system diagram.
Evaluate constraints on zones.
Ensure that the required communication pathways exist and determine whether the correct communication protocols exist and are compatible between applications and host servers.
This section explains how to create a deployment diagram, bind applications to logical servers, validate deployment, create a deployment report, and resolve validation errors.

Letters From Chennai: Anti-Piracy Crew's Six Months of Hell, Part 3/3 ({{commentsTotal}})
The ETV investigative television program Pealtnägija obtained letters sent home by Lauri Ader, one of the Estonian seamen detained in October held by Indian authorities until their release late last week. The letters were reprinted by ERR last month with permission from family members. They have now been translated by ERR News's journalinguists.
The Estonian "pirate hunters" were detained in India on October 12 for alleged arms violations in territorial waters. The 25 crew members - including 14 Estonians - were arrested by Indian authorities six days later.

We got some more money loaded to the prison account and that will allow us to buy cleaning supplies. The day before yesterday, we got a scouring brush and the parashas [latrines] are now gleaming. Today is sunny weather and we can warn our ulcerated mosquito bites in the sunshine. The local insects are cretins. When a normal Estonian mosquito bites you, it does so to feed, but the mosquitoes here try to mess you up so thoroughly that you feel ill all over. They don't even make a normal whining sound but bite you in the most idiotic places. soles of feet, cuticles, earlobes, eyelids, the skin between toes. Idiotic I tell you.
Romka got a new pairs of underclothes yesterday, oh what joy. It started with Paul getting a package with a huge amount of all sorts of T-shirts and underwear. Since Romka's old ones were so thin that you could see, well, all of his equipment, then it was decided by unanimous vote that 2 pairs of Irish-constructed boxers should go to Romka. He was really happy and gave one of the pairs to me.
I'm very happy with my Salomon Speedcross IIIs. Very good running shoes, no external damage. Because the ground surface here is like sandpaper, the soles are worn. I'm treating them like my prized possessions and I'll put them on if and when I ever get on that plane home. Afterwards, I will donate them to the Salomon museum, if there's one.
8 February 2014
Today the guys from cage 2 had kitchen duty. Their head chef Vasya tends to make very good grub out of poor quality ingredients. No disappointment this time. There was no meat, but the old guys made a mean cabbage stew with mashed potatoes. The meal was ready by 16:30. Tomorrow is my turn in the kitchen. I have no idea what to make.
No news right now, once again. We wake up each day with hopes that crumble by nightfall. I hope that today – maybe today we'll get out. Oh well.
9 February 2014
In general, Sunday is the longest day here. It just drags on. Everyone waits for Monday to bring something new. Today it was our turn in the kitchen, so at least the day went by quickly. When the prisoners went to the old kitchen to get their ingredients, the prisoners commented that we are Americans and terrorists. The media must be working wonders in this country.
One day, a two-star officer came up to me in the old kitchen and told me I was an American. He got under my skin. I shouted in his face that I don't intend to take his insults. I mean, him a senior officer and doesn't know what nationality I am. For a second, the old guy looked like he wanted to reach for a bamboo cane and I hoped from the bottom of my heart that he would. But yeah, unfortunately a ray of sense must have come into his head and he turned away and walked off.
What they're doing here with us here is totally absurd, an outrage!!! We lack any kind of information, and our questions aren't answered in video court, the officials haven't told us what we're accused of and we haven't been interrogated. What do they want to achieve by all this?
10 February 2014
Today we had a good laugh. An Iranian shaved his head. He looks like a first-class skinhead. So I taught him how to execute a Nazi salute and put the other hand on his lip, in imitation of a Hitler moustache [a mock gesture made by schoolboys]. Now I'm thinking that maybe it wasn't the nicest thing to do, since he is housed with Nigerians. Hope he lasts the night.
I've read several dozen books here, but not much of it's edifying material. My English has got much better and so has my Russian. I have a deal with the Russians that they speak their native language and of course you can only talk in English with the Brits. My cursing has gotten much, much better in both languages. :P
11 February 2014
The morning starts with pull-ups, I count down from 10. Then some sit-ups with a bar (which we nicked and used to be a streetlight). At 13:30 we get the bar out again and do pull-ups from one to ten and then down to one again. Afterwards, push-ups and finally I hang on the bar as long as possible with Zeba spotting and counting the seconds. I can't do any leg exercises thanks to my bum knee. The Iranian is alive and well and he told me today about various wines and flavours. I told him, "Mahmud – that's haram!" But he claimed that it was OK to talk and think about wine.
13 February 2014
I don't know what time it is. We reached Tuticorin jail. We met the ship crew. The first officer and a Hindu security man's hair has turned grey.
14 February 2014
Now back in court. It was like I expected. We were given books with 2,100 or more pages. For the most part it was copies of ship documents. It was torture to go there. We waited in a bus that was as hot as a sauna nearly the whole day, sweaty and starving, to spend 20 minutes in court and get three books that were literally full of rubbish (I plan to give these books to the Estonian public prosecutor's office). We had practically nothing to eat over two days. The senior mechanic collapsed in the courtroom and an ambulance had to come and take him away. The courtroom was like my grandfather's attic, except dirtier and dingier.
17 February 2014
The trip back from court´, well, that is, from another prison. 15 hours in a cramped old bus. We got in a traffic jam and there we were for three hours. Thousands of Hindus around us, spitting on the ground and calling us US terrorists and Italians. It's a miracle that we got away in one piece.
25 February 2014
Now we're again in a one-hole shithouse. We got two piss breaks in 13 hours. :) Nice. Billy's bladder was bursting and he asked for a stop. They said they would stop in 5 minutes. Hah. 5 minutes in India is about 2 hours. William told them that he would pee out the window. After which the bus didn't stop, of course. Billy told the police with stoic calm that maybe you want to move away a little, and opened the window and relieved himself, getting some of the slower police nice and wet. The view of this from the street must have been a good one.
28 February 2014
My fellow captives and I have lost confidence in the work the Foreign Ministry is doing. They don't send materials and apparently censor letters both ways. After our first trip to Tuticorin, we sent a joint letter to the Foreign Ministry, meant for the Foreign Ministry and the Estonian government and concerning our lives and health in connection with transport and escort. That disappeared somewhere. We sent it through the British consult, maybe he still has it?
Lately Billy and I have been giving gifts to each other. Today I got a nice boiled egg with a broken shell. I haven't given him anything today, but I have some ideas. If I find a nice fat cockroach, I can put it between some bread and the gift is ready to deliver. I can also add some leaves to make it nicer to eat.
4 March 2014
As expected, it's getting hotter and all sorts of new critters are appearing. The mosquitoes are getting more brazen every day and the prison guards more obtuse. It's all because of the temperature rising. The Iranians are starting to get a head of hair again and the Nigerians got days added on to their term because of some drug deals gone bad.
Some locals got a good hiding in the guards' room today, and the locals endured it with clear relish. I tried on myself what a bamboo cane feels like on the soles of your feet – a surprisingly unusual sensation. Like someone is tickling you but then it turns into sharp pain that hits right up to your brain and down into your eyes with a crack. Quite a worthy sensation, in a word, leaving an indelible memory.
The way of thinking in this prison is completely incomprhensible to us as former Soviet subjects. Here it's a thing of honour to be a snitch. The local snitches rat on everything. Even themselves. It's unbelievable but the God's honest truth. An example: There was a suspicion that someone had a cell phone, so the whole cell block was lined up. The guard, an officer, asked who had the phone. The biggest snitch in the block stepped up right away and said something like, "Sir, to do a service for you, I'll tell you immediately that I have the gadget and it's mine, I bought it from a cellmate, who got it for selling forbidden cigarettes from the mess hall block elder, who sold drugs to the guard Risvan for the telephone, which I bought using cannabis I bought from the Nigerians."
6 March 2014
We found a ladder. The ladder weighs about three tons. Vladka says we will have to work out for another six months, then we can take the ladder and use it to escape. (Flaws in the plan: iron ladder, live barbed wire!)
23 February 2014
If we don't get bail this time, then I'm giving up on India ever making the right decision and we'll have to resign ourselves to a longer term. It's been intimated to us that a court can't by definition result in a positive outcome for us and we won't see justice. Thus, be strong, and carry on. They can't give us more than 10 years!

RAF Air Crash Sites 1939 – 1942
26 comments on "RAF Air Crash Sites 1939 – 1942"
As a boy aged 6,and on holiday in Blackpool with my parents in 1938(approx), we decided to visit Lytham St Annes airport to view the planes from a bridge over the Railway line which passed close to the airport.Having caught a tram to Lytham, my Mother, Father,older Brother and myself, set off across the field adjacent to the airport to mount the bridge for an improved view of the airfield.We were approximately 100 yards from the bridge, when a Bristol Blenheim Bomber that was in the process of taking off,lost engine power, tried to tilt sideways to get between two vertical columns on the airport boundary wall, but a wing tip unfortunately struck one of the towers and the plane spun sideways and crashed into the bridge which we had been heading to. All of the planes crew were killed unfortunately and if my family and myself had been 3 minutes earlier so would we.
After reading through your comments several times I am convinced that the Fairey Battle crash into the bridge over the railway line at Squires Gate Saint Annes in April 1939 was the crash I witnessed.
I think I may have been mistaken about there being two brick towers which the plane tried to navigate through,and think its wing tip may have hit the roof of a building that was alongside the single tower,as the pilot banked the plane to avoid hitting the tower with its right hand wing.
Regards Stan Tudor.
My family history research had hit a brickwall but within the last few days (April 2016), a stroke of luck and a report in national newspapers of 24.03.1939 identified a RAF plane crash just before WW2 on 23.03.1939. It was a Fairey Battle plane from Cottesmore, Rutland, night flying over Norfolk. It's engine failed and it came down in flames at Mileham, Norfolk. The pilot was my relative Guy Shepherd. He was 19 years of age. The great coincidence is that I moved to Norfolk 12 years ago and Mileham is a neighbouring village. All these years of research and the answer was virtually on my doorstep. I hope to identify the site of the crash but local enquiries have so far been abortive. Has anyone had the story passed down to them?
Hi. I am looking for the actual crash site of a Battle 1 of RAF Benson which crashed on a training flight in bad visibility at Cadeleigh 3 miles Ssw of Tiverton Devon on the 12 Sept 1940 at 1840. All crew died.
Hi I was reading a history of the Alnwick to Coldstream railway line recently which mentioned an aircraft crash on or near the line at Edlingham, Northumberland in May 1942. Can you supply any further details of this incident please. Thank you. Nick Tait
Hi there
I'm a mountain biker and enjoy the country trails and that comes with strange sights sometimes.
In my local wood Errington wood in Cleveland North Yorkshire, right at the top of the wood the trees have been thinned out but grown back over the years, at that same spot on the hill, there's a bout a four to five meter wide crater, that goes down to approximately four or five feet in depth. around remembrance day there are always four crosses with poppies placed by its side.
There is no debris, as it's to close to population and would have been gathered up.
I know there was a fighter / Bomber flight training school in a town called Saltburn which is litraly the next town down on the coast form the wood, I've looked about on the Internet for any information, I'm not finding any information regarding errington Wood and a crash site. ( not sure I've delved far enough )
There is a war history in and on top of the wood with gun placements and such, bomb holes and cut trench paths.
It's also noted that Errington in the past has an important historic history with the near by blast furnace in Redcar and mining. not to mention the Bronze age.
Thank you
Hi Ian
Thank you for your prompt reply.
That's interesting what you've posted and thank you.
Yes there are always x4 crosses right next to the crater, I took pictures last year while I was biking as i was really intersted to find out what it's all about.
There's a very small village called Upleatham at the bottom far side of the wood, that village has a few older residence dotted about, I'm going to ask if they know any history or know of anyone that may know anything about it, after all, I'm thinking it's one of the residence that's placing the crosses. ( could be totaly wrong with that assumption ).
Someone obviously knows the significance.
Hi Ian, an RAF one for this this time that I wonder if you have any info on. I came across a book on Crowborough rugby club today that had a large chapter on the war that completely deviated from the history of the club and players and proceeded to go through a list of airplane crashes in and around the area. Crowborough is about 3 miles from the village of Rotherfield where I live. The Parish boundaries have changed since the war as at the time Crowborough was a tiny village smaller than Rotherfield. Now its an ugly sprawling modern commuter town of about 25,000 souls thanks to the railway and the draw of London. Anyhow one of the crashes or incidents might just qualify for inclusion in my list of Rotherfield parish crash sites as its on the modern parish border between Eridge (a village in Rotherfield Parish) and neighbouring Groombridge. I had no knowledge of it before reading the single sentence about it today.
It says on 4th Jun 1941 a Spitfire from 303 (Polish) Sqn flown by Plt Off Klosin went into an uncontrollable spin. The pilot baled out and landed safely at Park Corner, Eridge. That's it, no mention of where the Spit crashed or anything else. Any ideas?
Another single sentence entry from Blitz over Sussex says it was a non-combat related crash/loss. However the Polish Sqns remembered website lists him as claiming a Bf109 destroyed on the same day. Maybe a victory roll that went wrong.
Intriguing, I'll have to come back to it in slower time as I'm working on a couple of earlier ones first. I will try the village historian who might know more.
Hi Ian I live near a Hawker hurricane Mk 2 N2662 crash site is Pelton Co Durham 5th Dec 1941 Sgt John Donald Lenehan (RCAF)of 55 OTU squadron based at Raf Usworth Sunderland I am researching this for the village and school children I am at a blank now I want to build a model memorial painting a model in exact colours/markings and find exact location so kids can leave a wreath can you help
Hi, I was wondering if you could shed any light onto a story regarding a Spitfire crashing in a field in South Owersby, Lincolnshire. I have searched and found nothing but the story persists.

Strange... but strangely good...
Its got a great beat and the sound is excellent. I think you uploaded at the right time with Halloween approaching... Its got that strange tinge of evil vibe.
Thanks for the review. As I said this is a really old song and Ive recently grown a pair and started uploading al of my work. Again thanks or listening and I hope to make a fan or two on the site.

I was actually debating with myself whether or not to add drums while I was working on it. It seems you're right though, it probably should have some percussion to it.
Thanks for reviewing!

Great beat, I wouldn't of said it was painful, but definitely crunchy...
Well, pain is a very subjective feeling.

Pretty Good
The genre is quite mixed, It has Trancey bits, Dance bits and a good melody and slowish beat that really could fit in ambient or chill. I'm afraid I cannot categorically tell you the genre, it's the same issue I have with my music...
But good none the less. I personally would listen to this if I was chilling out.

Apart from the awful singing over the top of the original, you have done nothing to this song to make it better than the original. And therefore you get a 0 from me.

Sorry for the late response, Christmas, New Years Eve and that kinda stuff took my time up :)

Why the shitty scores...
This is a great track, but I don't get why the other votes were so low... obviously homo's...
Anyway... another good beat, a nice flow and although short... I personally like the short and sweet variety... I think at the end, you could let it go on with that bass a little longer, crank the beat back in then fade the song, adding maybe 20 - 30 seconds to the song length... That way satisfying at least some of the other people who listen to the track...
Keep em coming bud...
To be honest, I think I've lost the original source file I made this from, but I still have the FL presets, so I might re-make this. Thanks for the constructive criticism.

Montreal Canadiens general manager and coach Bob Gainey wasn't a fan of the fans at the Bell Centre who booed goalie Carey Price on Wednesday night.
The Canadiens fell 4-1 to the Boston Bruins to get swept in four consecutive games in the Eastern Conference quarter-final series.
Price finished with 26 saves in the game but is now winless in seven consecutive playoff games.
Some fans in the crowd got on Price after the Bruins widened their lead with a pair of goals in the second period, and the goalie responded by lifting his arms in a mocking fashion.
Gainey said he wasn't bothered by the 21-year-old goalie's response.
"He could have kept his cool and not made any kind of gesture towards the crowd, but on the other hand, when you're being bullied, basically, if you don't stand up for yourself, who's going to?
'When you're being bullied, basically, if you don't stand up for yourself, who's going to?' — Bob Gainey, on Price's response to boos
"By my count, he must of had three or four breakaways to stop in the second period and a couple of other open scoring chances, so where's the basis for the jeering coming from?"
Some in the crowd also booed Gainey, but the 55-year-old said he was more concerned by the criticism aimed at his young netminder.
Gainey talked about his experience as Dallas GM, where the team was able to prosper by acquiring Darryl Sydor, who had been booed regularly in Los Angeles.
"The people here should watch what they do, because our competitors down the road might be just waiting until we boo a guy out of town, and then they'll have to play against him all the time," said Gainey.
The GM oversaw the 2005 draft in which Price was selected in the first round and last year traded veteran Cristobal Huet, arguing that it was necessary for the young goalie to get battle tested in the 2008 playoffs.
Gainey is expected to address the media at length to discuss the disappointing season on Thursday.

There are implication that a woman was involved in an event in the bible. Its significants is important.
sort by best latest
"The Book of Judith has a tragic setting that appealed to Jewish patriots and it warned of the urgency of adhering to Mosaic law, generally speaking, but what accounted for its enduring appeal was the drama of its narrative. The story revolves around Judith, a daring and beautiful widow, who is upset with her Jewish countrymen for not trusting God to deliver them from their foreign conquerors. She goes with her loyal maid to the camp of the enemy general, Holofernes, with whom she slowly ingratiates herself, promising him information on the Israelites. Gaining his trust, she is allowed access to his tent one night as he lies in a drunken stupor. She decapitates him, then takes his head back to her fearful countrymen. The Assyrians, having lost their leader, disperse, and Israel is saved. Though she is courted by many, she remains unmarried for the rest of her life. (wikipedia)"
Judith is mentioned in the deuterocanonical books which are NOT part of the Hebrew Bible.
Quite a few women were involved in historical Bible events. They are worth a read. I encourage you to seek them out.

In the KX Series, the distance between the pyro-electric sensor and the lens is identical for each detection zone. This eliminates distortion and provides excellent focused zones.
In traditional detectors the lens is made in a flat form and bent into a cylinder. Therefore the distance between the pyro-electric sensor and the lens varies for each detection zone. This causes distortion and unfocused zones.

Get Rid of Expensive Masks, Grab Affordable Facial Clay that Works for All Skin Type
A visit to the spa can leave you feeling brand new. It can also leave a huge dent in your pocket. Many manufactures have sought to make products that will help people experience that spa-like treatment in the comfort of their home, and for far less than a visit to the spa would cost. The truth is that many of these spa in a bottle products are highly priced and ineffective, so you have to be choosy.
Many people have the habit of throwing away their money on expensive products that bear a notable brand name, but does nothing notable for their skin. Why spend even a small fortune on a product that actually tortures your skin rather than help it, or even on a product that does help, but is costly, when there is one you can get for far less that is just as highly effective? We will use this article to focus on facial clay mask and highlight just how affordable facial care is, once you choose wisely.
Is Expensive Skin Care Worth the Money?
A common complaint among people everywhere is that skin care is expensive, but is it really? The problem for many is that they try to model what they see in advertisements, and try to adopt a skin care regime that is akin to that of celebrities. They fail to realize that they can achieve the same for far less. Skin care is expensive, but it is also very affordable. It all depends on where you chose to look, the products you chose to use, and the lifestyle you try to maintain.
Affordable, all-natural, deep cleansing, anti-aging and great for all skin types are all attributes of a quality facial clay mask. Certainly the proof comes from eating the pudding or in this case using the clay mask, but finding a clay mask with those qualities is a good start to finding yourself in a spa in a bottle.
Customer reviews is the best guide for identifying high quality products. Amazon.com is a fantastic online shopping platform for finding a variety of products, and for getting the scoop from other customers on a facial clay mask before purchasing.
The facial clay mask from Oshi Glows is a top selling product in Amazon's beauty department, and a true spa in a bottle. According to the product write up, it is good for all skin types and contains healing clays that , "have two purposes – to draw out toxins, oils and other debris while supplying rejuvenating mineral nutrients for skin that looks fresher and younger!" The healing clays mentioned are Sodium Bentonite, Calcium Bentonite and Purified Smectite (Montmorillonite Bentonite).
One satisfied customer, Andrew Reid, expressed his satisfaction with the clay mask, "I have psoriasis and I heard that clay masks would help to clean my skin and remove toxins. I've used this for 2 weeks now and have noticed notable improvements. I'm very happy with my purchase." This and other customer reviews prove that you do not need expensive facial clay masks or other beauty products or even an expensive spa treatment to maintain a healthy skin.

Quabbin Reservoir is one of the largest man made public water supplies in the United States. It was created in the 1930's by the construction of two huge earthen dams. The reservoir covers 39 square miles, is 18 miles long, and can hold 412 billion gallons of water. It is one of the primary water supplies for Boston. Before the reservoir was built there was a hill in Enfield called Quabbin hill and a lake in Greenwich called Quabbin Lake. Both of these names are named after a Native American Chief called Nani-Quaben, meaning place of many waters. These names became the basis for naming the new reservoir.

Dove Video Proves Women Are More Beautiful Than They Think
If you want a good kind of cry today, check out this new video sponsored by Dove called "Sketches." It features a project in which the beauty product company hires a sketch artist, the kind who usually puts together composites of criminals based on witness description, to draw women per the women's own descriptions of themselves. He's separated from his models by a curtain, so he never sees them.
Then, the artist draws the same women based on strangers' descriptions of them. You see as the conversations shift from protruding chins and skin discolorations to shining eyes and nice cheekbones. You also see that the resulting sketches are sadder, chunkier — and also less accurate — when based on the women's own descriptions of themselves.
Kudos to Dove for continuing what they've called their "Campaign for Real Beauty," which is based on the radical notion that advertising can be good for the world — and can still sell us lotion and bodywash without making us feel badly about ourselves first. This is one more piece of hardcore proof that our media messages wear women down, and that The Beauty Myth is real and destructive. Of course, it's also important to note that Dove's parent company, Unilever, is hardly guilt-free in the fraught beauty industry. But this video and this project are certainly forces for good.

Ixtlán de los Hervores
Ixtlán de los Hervores, also known as Ixtlán, is a city in the Mexican state of Michoacán. It is located 29 kilometres (18 mi) from Jiquilpan by state highway 16 and 26 kilometres to the northeast of the city of Zamora by way of highway 35.[citation needed] It is about 80 miles (130 km) southeast of Guadalajara.[1]
Ixtlán de los Hervores is known for its thermal water springs.[1] In Ixtlán de los Hervores one will find three geysers that surges up from the depths of the earth with tremendous pressure. The jet rises more than 30 metres in height and reaches temperatures of 96 degrees Celsius (204.8 degrees Fahrenheit). There are two new geysers, one near the soccer field. A rustic spa has been built near the geyser with services for people who are seeking the healing powers of sulphurous waters found here.

This is true.
I have not homebrewed anything, but I like the idea. I think Sony should charge $100 dollars for kits, let these guys do the grunt work for apps. Like Android.
Let us have unsupported codec support etc. Since Sony is managing and giving the OK, no Homebrew (sadly) or pirating.
I just want more codec support and maybe stuff like Pandora and Grooveshark.
I wouldn't lump Kinect only titles as 360 games. I'm not going to spend 150 dollars to play those titles, they are Kinect titles, not 360 titles.
I don't consider Move Heroes a PS3 game, I consider it a move game.
It is their first online game. Delays will happen.
Just because its delayed a few months does not mean they are working on a MGS title. Most likely delayed due to SEGA afraid to release a online focus title along with Modern Warfare 3 and BF3.
No. They are working on Anarchy Reigns. The developers talked about how they are working with SEGA because they allow them to work on their own IPs. Why would they do development work for another franchise?
No, their list is great. So great that it just happens that we own those damn games! AT least I do. It sucks.
If I didn't own the games, I would be thrilled. But I already paid for those games. Is it OK that I get nothing?
Sony should have offered, people's whos account already had all the title some in store credit. Maybe like $30 bucks.
Would have loved MAG. I already have all the ones on the list (outside the Fury expansion), if MAG was on the list I would have at least gotten one new game instead of nothing new.
I thought my bottom was wet from the news, it was just my wallet crying.
Sony should give those loyal customers that already own it, like 30 dollar credit to the store.
The reason they have 4-5 titles to choose is because they don't want multiple accounts to take all of the games.
If they check your trophies or buying history they should know. just give those accounts money.
Yeah, PSN's online is up. Time to play a single player game.
Namco needs to get better teams.
I lost 2 games I was working on due to this .
Paying monthly to play a game you paid full price for sucks.
Playing it. Its pretty bad.
This is how Sony fights trade ins.
All kidding aside. Fuck VGchartz. Horrible site full of misinformation.
7 Things we want Nintendo to do to win E3, they will do none of it and we will still praise them like we did the Wii. Why? Because we grew up playing NES/SNES etc etc Nintendo does no wrong, innovators etcetc Sony copies etc etc PSN down. I get it.
Another one.... let me do an article about how NBA 2K12 is coming.
The DS one is good so far, the PS3 isn't. It borrows from god of war, but has bad animation. Has some good ideas, but very weak.
Wow. A steal.

House Democrats Unveil Economic Agenda; Republicans Should Work With Democrats to Address Border Crisis
Mariel Saez 202-225-3130
On Wednesday, House Democrats revealed our new economic agenda geared at jumpstarting the middle class and ensuring that everyone can Make It In America. The American people want a Congress that is on their side, not a Congress that says: "You're on your own." While House Republicans waste time and taxpayers' dollars on political lawsuits and ignore the many time-sensitive legislative priorities before them, Democrats are committed to addressing the priorities of the American people. I hope House Republicans will abandon their partisan obstruction and begin to work with us on addressing these important issues, including creating jobs, fixing our broken immigration system, renewing emergency unemployment insurance, and raising the minimum wage for millions of hard-working Americans.
This week, the House passed a bill to reauthorize the Highway Trust Fund for eight more months. I was disappointed that House Republicans brought this stopgap legislation to the Floor, rather than work with Democrats on a long-term, sustainable funding source for the Highway Trust Fund and for our broader infrastructure needs. While I voted for the bill because we cannot allow the Highway Trust Fund to run out during the peak of the summer construction season, I urge House Republicans to work with Democrats on a long-term solution.
I was also disappointed that House Republicans did not take up the President's supplemental request to address the humanitarian crisis at the border. The request would provide a number of critical resources to alleviate this crisis, including additional immigration judges. Congress needs to act quickly, before resources available to handle the situation are stretched even further. At the same time, the crisis at the border shows the need to act on comprehensive immigration reform, and I continue to urge Speaker Boehner to allow the House to debate and vote on reform legislation.
Sincerely yours,
Sincerely yours,
P.S. Please invite your friends and family to sign up for this newsletter to learn about what House Democrats are doing to lead America in a new direction. You can also get the latest updates and join the conversation on my Facebook and Twitter accounts.

We just came back from the Lake District, Yorkshire Moors, Yorkshire Dales. We had amazing weather, probably only 5-6 hours of open umbrellas, and many sunny days. All areas were absolutely stunning, thanks to all who helped me!
One area of England that we have not been to is NE of London. Once we would arrive at Heathrow, thinking of taking a flight to York City, staying for several days, then renting a car and driving south in a circular route, but I have no idea what the special places are to see and visit.
Can you give me some of your ideas to get started researching? Love National Trust properties, gardens, houses, castles, history, and charming villages/towns. We would probably be there 2 weeks (not counting "fly days") at the end of March.

Need some ideas for trip to England, NE of London
We just came back from the Lake District, Yorkshire Moors, Yorkshire Dales. We had amazing weather, probably only 5-6 hours of open umbrellas, and many sunny days. All areas were absolutely stunning, thanks to all who helped me!

the North Yorkshire Moors are worth a drive through for sure - go thru them to Whitby and the coastal drive to Scarborough - whitby having a neat old ruined castle seaside and called the home of Dracula or at least its author - Fountains Abbey in a neat sprawling park of Studley royal near Ripon - Harrogate - the Bronte family home in Haworth bordering the famous desolate Moors there - Whitby and the coastal drive to Scarborough - all nice days out from York that I have done by train and bus but a drive would have been much much nicer and even Leeds has some stellar Victoria architecture.

<<thinking of taking a flight to York City,>>
er.. York doesn't have an airport so not sure what you mean
and just to clarify by NE of London do you mean Norfolk, Suffolk area?
Report Abuse
or NE England, which is Northumberland and Durham???
Report Abuse
a southern loop could include Cambridge, Ely (famous cathedral) and Lavenham - the latter a really neat town that does not get much ink on Fodor's but I loved it - smallish town great for a stroll.
Report Abuse
Yes -- your post is a little confusing. NE would mean to me East Anglia/Norfolk/Suffolk/Cambs.
York is north (and actually sort of NNW) of London, and doesn't have an airport.
If you have been to Yorkshire and the Moors and really do mean NE of London -- then you are better of flying into LHR and taking a coach to East Anglia, basing somewhere like Norwich or Cambridge or Kings Lynn.
Report Abuse
If you do mean as far north as Durham/Northumberland, there is plenty to see that would fit your list of interests. But it might make more sense to get to Newcastle and tour from there.
Report Abuse
Sorry all to confuse you
We did go to the Moors, but never made it to the City of York. Would like to spend some time there, but I see now that the airport (Leeds) is an hour away. How easy is it to take a train from Heathrow to York?
I did mean NE of London ~~ not the NE of England. I was looking at the area of the following counties, not knowing which are the more interesting to investigate, which are less interesting.
As above in original post, historic properties, abbeys and churches, gardens, small towns, countryside, large old trees interest us most.

The north Norfolk coast is lovely - plenty of creeks, sandy beaches, windmills, decent cafes and pubs (Wells Next The Sea, Blakeney, Cley etc).
In Suffolk you might like Lavenham for the beautiful timbered buildings, and further out toward the coast the Stour Valley is lovely - scene of several Constable paintings - you can do a riverside walk and finish in the tearooms.
Cambridge and Ely are worth a look for the colleges and cathederal respectively.
Duxford is a great air and flight museum (they have a Concorde!) and a lot of older commercial and military planes like the Comet, russian fighter jets etc etc. Unfortunately you just missed an air show (last weekend I think).
Report Abuse
RM67 ~ amazing I was just looking at Lavenham, thought it looked lovely!
And is Flatford Mill in East Bergholt the area of the Stour Valley you are talking about?
But you won't get me in a air and flight museum when on vacation….we live 60-90 minutes from Washington DC, and when people come to visit we always have to go to the Air and Space Museum at Dulles! It's great, but my attention span wanders after I've seen the Concorde, Blackbird and Shuttle!

Another vote for Norfolk and that coastal area, too.

Here are some photos of Norfolk and Suffolk.

I think that my photo of Willy Lott's cottage is taken from the same place Where Constable painted it

There are no trains from Heathrow to anywhere except Paddington.
So if you want to go to East Anglia the best bet is likely a coach from LHR to Cambridge and then collect a car after a good night's sleep.
Otherwise if you want a train you have to go to Paddington, cross London by cab/taxi/bus to Kings Cross (same for York -- Paddington to KC). Or you can take the tube from LHR to KC.
You have a long list of counties - several of which are not NE of London. W/ 2 weeks it would be possible to start up in York (a couple of days in the city) and then wander down through Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire then back to LHR to fly home.
Report Abuse
Or book a car service from LHR. Plan on about an hour to get to Kings Cross for train to York. Not the cheapest way to get to K.C., but the easiest. I think the fare runs about £ 37.

You can get to Cambridge from York without going into London - there are trains from York to Peterborough and then you connect from Peterborough to Cambridge - its an easy journey and avoids the tube.
I did try posting a link to my Stour Valley pix on Flick earlier but for some reason the post did not go through. Had a similar thing on the painkiller thread yesterday - maybe work has some sort of helpful blocker now....will try again when I get home.

>>You can get to Cambridge from York without going into London<<
I don't think anyone suggested going into London to get from York to Cambridge . . . The comments were how to get from LHR to York (or LHR to Cambridge).

Have given up on York, too far
Maybe we spend a few days in London (been there before) and then take a train to ???
Thinking Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk, back down through Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire depending upon sights to see.
Question……..DH just said he has to be back by March 24 (work) that has us leaving around March 6, earlier than we ever have before. I wonder if even the Daffodils will be out, that's pretty early!

In Norfolk I recommend moated Oxburgh Hall near Swaffham http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/oxburgh-hall , and the Old Vicarage gardens at East Ruston http://www.e-ruston-oldvicaragegardens.co.uk although not sure if they'll be open that early in the year.

You can easily do East Anglia (based in Cambridge, ideally with a car to get you around) for a few days, then go onto York for a couple of days using the route I have outlined without going back into London. Cambridge to Peterborough is 50 mins and Peterborough to York is 1hr 15 on nice modern trains. Or keep the car and drive north.

PS I live in Hertfordshire and I don't recommend it as a tourist hotspot.

It may seem too far -- but actually York is very accessible from East Anglia/Cambridgeshire. Easier in some ways than some of the other counties you listed.

My husband and I have been talking and we decided to save this trip for another year. We would rather go when there is more in bloom/warmer weather.
So I'm "filing" this for June 2017, thanks all!
If anyone has any comments/knowlege of southern France, I'll start a new thread for a March trip there, would appreciate any suggestions!

No need to fight over who gets the ocean view in this fabulous 6-bedroom, 4-bath home on a private, rocky beach! With 270 degrees of blue-water views, four of the bedrooms have full views of the Pacific and Monterey Bay. The fifth and sixth bedrooms have a quiet, courtyard view just in case somebody doesn't like to go to sleep to the sound of the waves, or watch the moon sinking into the sea at night.
Our home, known since 1929 as Rocky Shores, is minutes from Carmel and Cannery Row in Monterey, and Pebble Beach is our neighbor. We operate under Pacific Grove's short-term rental license #83.
We have a fully stocked gourmet kitchen - and the cook gets an ocean view, too. Dining table seats 10, 14 with extension. Foosball, pinball, ping pong, Legos, art and drawing supplies, puzzles, games and other toys for the kids. Steinway grand piano for the musically inclined. Off-street parking for six cars is available.
Trip Advisor has just chosen Pacific Grove as one of the top 12 scenic destinations in the United States! And there is no more beautiful home base than Rocky Shores to explore our wonderful town. Surf, snorkel, or comb the beautiful beaches and coves. Make S'mores at a bonfire on our secluded beach.
Nice restaurants just two blocks away. Fabulous Pacific Grove golf course is across the street. Downtown Pacific Grove is 1.5 miles away, with movie theater, farmers' market, restaurants, coffee houses, antiques, shops, bakeries and natural history museum. The world-famous Monterey Bay Aquarium and the American Tin Cannery outlets are about 2 miles away, as is Monterey's Fishermen's Wharf. Wine tasting in Carmel Valley is 30 minutes away. Big Sur is about 45 minutes away. John Steinbeck Museum is about 35 minutes away.

My family has been blessed to spend 27 years in one of only two beachfront homes in Pacific Grove. You will love staying here, too! Our short-term rental license is #83.
Kirstie purchased this house in 1989
We bought our home because it was the only home directly on the beach in all of Pacific Grove. It was extremely private, with a golf course across the street, State Park surrounding us, and the blue Pacific as our backyard. We have a full acre of private property. Another residence has since been built next door, on its own acre of land. A portion of our stone driveway is shared by both homes.
I love to look out my window and see the full moon casting sparkling light onto the dark waves as it sinks to the horizon. On clear evenings, the sunsets are spectacular. The morning sunrise casts a pink glow on the waves. And when it is foggy, there is a magic about the property that is enhanced with a roaring wood blaze in the fireplace, or a glass of wine in the hot tub.
Although we only stayed a short couple of days, our host Kristie went above and beyond to make our stay possible and special. The sounds of the crashing waves and views of the ocean are breathtaking. We had 6 couples stay comfortably in this home, but be aware that 2 of the rooms are adjoined to other bedrooms, so perfect for families or if your guests know and are comfortable with each other. I would definitely recommend this home!
Pictures do not do this home justice. The views of the ocean are beyond amazing - you are right there on the shore. Loved hearing the sound of the sea at night and oh my goodness when we were there it was a a full moon. The amenities that are offered are perfect for creating quality time for everyone in the family, pinball, ping pong, hot tub, tons of board games and even a big screen tv. The gourmet kitchen was well appointed and a delight to cook in. Her "bible" was so helpful for choosing restaurants, activities, and for answering questions about taking care of her home. Kirstie's home was elegant and yet so comfortable. Thanks for the memories. We will be back.
Our family of 12 had a wonderful time of relaxation and fun. The house is perfect for 6 couples and you could not ask for a better location. All the beds were very comfortable and each room had special touches just for Kirstie's guests. Our kids were in awe as they drove up to this amazing home and location. The views from the house, the sound of the ocean waves and the warm/comfortable atmosphere made for a perfect weekend. We will always remember this time of reunion we shared with our children and spouses in your amazing home. Thank you for being a blessing to us.
We just got back from a wonderful girl's weekend at Kirstie's beautiful home. Everything you could want in a rental is at this home, there is not a better location in the area. All of us remarked over and over again about the views (pictures can't do them justice), and we are already trying to figure out when we can come back again. Thank you Kirstie for everything and hope to see you again soon!!!
Second time we have rented this huge lovely home to gather our family together in a spectacular setting with recreation available for all ages. All the family enjoys the home being situated right on the ocean, taking walks and seeing the local sites. The home itself has a gigantic front/main room overlooking the Pacific, a super playroom for the grandkids with a pinball machine, costumes and board games, a movie theatre area with a huge TV screen and tons of DVDs, up to date bathrooms and a fully appointed kitchen. Every detail has been thought of...you will not be disappointed.
This house was absolutely magnificent. Being familiar with the area, but returning for a week's visit with friends for the first time in years, the location was simply perfect as a launching point for activities at Monterey, Carmel, and Big Sur, not to mention that the specific area at the northern tip of Asilomar Beach in Pacific Grove is simply spectacular in its own right. There were a couple of days during our trip that we decided to just stay at the house, build a fire in the fireplace in the great room overlooking the ocean, and spend our time watching the waves, otters, seals, and sunsets. This house faces directly west; it is also directly on the water. You literally cannot get any closer to the Pacific! On top of that, the real estate that this house occupies is magnificent in its sweeping views from Carmel to Pacific Grove along the ocean. There are large rock formations at water's edge that add to the magic of ocean-viewing at this particular location. Also, the beautiful walking trails of Asilomar Beach are steps away. We also walked to the nearby Pt. Pinos lighthouse for a tour as well as the Monarch butterfly sanctuary just minutes away on foot.
The house is very casual which fit our group perfectly. The owner, Kirstie, goes to great lengths to ensure a quality stay, as well she should given the expense involved, but she really does go the extra mile to make you feel right at home. The house is very spacious for 8 people (4 couples in our case) with plenty of kitchen space for cooking; all the utensils and pots and pans are right there for use along with an outdoor grill. There is a TV room with a large screen TV and tons of DVDs, BluRays and Laserdiscs; a pinball machine; a ping pong table; foosball; and high power binoculars for viewing the rafts of sea otters that inhabit the kelp forest just yards from the shore's edge. The sunsets were different every night and not to be missed! We planned our activities around making sure that we were home for the hour surrounding sunset. A great storm hit the area on our last full day, giving us an incredible display of the sea's fury with huge crashing waves and gigantic sea sprays. It was better than an IMAX movie!
I have no legitimate complaints about the property. The other three couples in our group all echoed this sentiment. Maybe if the house could be turned 3 degrees clockwise so that it is EXACTLY facing west toward the sunsets over the water, but that's about it! Lol.
The world-famous Monterey Bay Aquarium is about 2 miles away. Quaint Carmel-by-the-Sea is 10 minutes away. Monterey's Fishermen's Wharf is 2 miles away. Carmel Valley wine tasting is 30 minutes away. The John Steinbeck Museum is 35 minutes away. Big Sur is 45 minutes away. The Pacific Grove Natural History Museum is 1 mile away. We operate with Pacific Grove Transient Use License #83.

An Academy for fun
The DeSoto school year ended last month, but the halls in area schools were not empty for long.
DeSoto students are learning summer school is no longer just for students who have fallen behind in class.
The district's Summer Academy offers classes for kids who want to get a jump on next year and for those who just want to have some fun.
About 650 kids are participating in this year's program, up from about 150 when it started four years ago. Some students are learning more about computers and the Internet. Others are getting together to trade Pokemon cards and some are keeping in shape with basketball or volleyball classes.
Many students are doing nothing more than they would do at home. Keil Hileman has five television monitors in his classroom where students can play video games. The difference is, they're interacting with other kids and are closely supervised by the teachers.
Some activities require more supervision than others. Hileman also allows his students to build and launch their own miniature rockets. Under his watchful eye, the students learn what makes a rocket work and how to make them more aerodynamic.
The Summer Academy was formed with the intent of giving area kids something constructive to do over the summer. The idea is catching on with students and teachers.
Program coordinator Paula Henderson said teachers have had a great time coming up with ideas for classes to keep the kids interested.
Starside Elementary teacher Angela Redmond decided to teach a Pokemon class when she discovered the learning potential involved.
"We used them in our classroom during the school year. The kids were always bringing them to school and driving me crazy with them so I thought about how to make it educational for them," she said. "The kids made their own cards, about themselves, not the characters."
Students in Redmond's summer class made card holders and played the Pokemon board game. Redmond even let the kids bring the cards to class for a trading session.
The teachers' initiative has not gone unnoticed.
"A lot of the kids from the first week have come back and signed up again," she said. "So, I start out with eight students and end up with 40."
The classes will continue through next week.

Meet Harry.
"Hi!" Harry said with a wave and a grin.
Harry, you're supposed to be emo.
"Oh..." Pausing, the boy-who-lived-and-had-really-messy-hair started to frown. "Leave me to pout and scowl in piece."
You mean 'peace'
Well, this is Harry. Harry has a destiny. But, we'll get into that later.
Meet the Dursleys.
"Stupid freaks."
Well, maybe not.
Moving forward.
Meet the Weasleys, especially Ron, one of Harry's best friends.
"I'm getting married!" Bill Weasley exclaimed.
Ignore Bill, he's been in the fire whiskey for courage. And, the stupid git wouldn't share. -glares-
"My drink, wench! Get your own!"
Moving on...
Watch Bill Weasley get married to Fleur Delacour.
"Yay!" everyone exclaimed.
Meet Hermione Granger, Harry's other best friend.
"She's smart," Ron pointed out.
"Thank you, Ron," Hermione replied with a grin.
Now, Harry, Ron, and Hermione are going off to have adventures, kill Voldemort, taunt some Slytherins, and eat ice cream.
"Ice cream?" Hermione was incredulous.
"Mmmmm... Ice cream..." Ron said dreamily.
So, the Golden Trio
"I hate that term," Harry interrupted.
Whatever, emo-boy. Anyway, the three decide to trek all over creation
"Ooooooo! Look! Rocks!" Ron exclaimed.
-Sigh- They went hunting
"You mean searching," Hermione interjected. "Hunting is for animals. Searching is for items."
Are you telling this story? Well? No? Ok... Fine... As I was saying...
They went hunting for all the bits and pieces of Voldermort's soul to destroy.
"Found one!" Ron exclaimed.
"That's a toffee," Hermoine pointed out.
"Mmmm... toffee," Ron replied as he opened the candy and popped it into his mouth. "Well, it's destroyed now!"
After many adventures...
"AAAAAAAAAAAAA!" the three exclaimed as they ran from some werewolves.
And, lots of escapades...
"Runnnn!" Harry yelled as they were confronted by a dragon.
They finally destroyed all of the horcruxes...
"Finally!" Harry exclaimed, dancing in glee.
"There's still Voldermort," Hermoine pointed out.
"Fine," Harry pouted. "Spoil my fun."
So, after more searching
"Hunting!" Hermoine exclaimed.
Shut up! After more bsearching/b, they locate the foul wizard in his lair.
"Foul? Lair?" Ron looked disgusted. "Are you a romance writer or something?"
Shut up before I find a wand and decide to see if I can cast the unforgivables. So, the three enter the lair.
"Hey Potty, Weasel, Mudblood," the dashing Draco Malfoy said with a sneer.
"Ferret," Ron snarled with a wave of his wand. A few moments later, the Malfoy heir was trussed up and hanging by his left ankle from the lovely 17th century chandelier.
"That felt good," Ron said with a grin as he lightly pushed Draco so he started to swing.
"We still have to kill Voldemort," Harry stated.
"Sure, spoil my fun," Ron pouted.
Getting to the snakey-faced git's throne room
"I like that! I'll have to use it!" Harry said with a firm nod.
The three stood firm, defiant, strong in the midst of the seething crowd of putrid Death Eaters.
"You bare/b a romance writer!" Hermoine asserted.
Just get on with it!
"This," Harry said, pointing is wand unwaveringly at Voldermort, "Is for my parents, and Cedric, and Sirius, and every other person you've killed!"
He could've killed you three times over by the time you finished that speech, you know.
"Quiet, I'm being dramatic," Harry seethed. "It's in my contract. Besides, he has to give me the first shot."
"To prove what a weakling I am. I throw a spell at him, he laughs it off, throws a spell at me, I go flying through the air, everyone thinks he's won. And, then, after a few moments of despair, I get my resolve back, get up, and we have a good ol' round of fisticuffs."
"Fisticuffs, Potter?" Voldemort hissed. "You've been infected by the writer's romance novel lean. Don't worry, I'll take care of that for you. Get on with it."
However, Harry had an Ace up his sleeve, to borrow a 'muggle' term.
Waving his wand erratically, and with great enthusiasm, he chanted his spell. "I'm the Gypsy the Acid Queen. I'll tear your soul apart!"
"What was that?" Ron asked.
"Oh, really, Harry? Lyrics from a rock opera!" Hermoine repermanded.
"Well, look. It worked, didn't it?" Harry pointed out.
"I'm melting! Melting! Aaaaaaaa! What a world!" Voldemort exclaimed as he... well... melted.
"He's been watching Wizard of Oz too often," Harry pointed out dryly.
"What are you two on about?" Ron asked. "Nutters the both of you."
The Death Eaters, seeing their invincible leader killed, fled into the night.
The next day, the Golden Trio
"Stop calling us that!" Hermoine shouted.
Look, the Daily Prophet is calling you that. Live with it. Anyway, the three had a press conference.
"How did you defeat You-Know-Who?" Rita Skeeter, she-who-needs-a-make-over asked. And, stop glaring at me Rita, you know you do.
"Who? I don't know who?" Harry cheekily replied.
"Harry," Hermoine muttered. "They mean Voldemort."
"Oh! Him!" Harry nodded decisively. "I just used an arcane spell hidden by one of my ancestors among the Muggles so it wouldn't fall into the wrong hands."
"And, how did you discover this wondrous spell?" Rita asked, salivating over the story she'd be able to tell.
"Lots of research," Harry said with a firm nod.
"Harry," Hermoine hissed. "Watching the rock opera 'Tommy' over and over again is not research!"
"They don't know that!" Harry whispered back vemently.
"I think I see a bowl of candy," Ron muttered as he wandered off.
"What will you be doing now, Mr. Potter," one of the other reporters asked.
Harry grinned. "I'm glad you asked! Since I survived my battle with the evil Voldemort, I'm going to relax, settle down, and spend time with my very large harem."
"Harem!" the reporters exclaimed.
"Harem?!" Hermoine echoed.
Harem? What harem? Where did that come from?
"Yes, my harem. Granted, it hasn't been put together yet, but I'll be sending out applications soon. If anyone wants to request an application, please see my personal accounts manager at Gringotts, the goblin Fuzzlepot."
Fuzzlepot? Aren't goblins supposed to have names like GrindBones or AxeHandle?
"A Fuzzlepot is an incendiary device used by the Goblin nations to..." Hermoine started to lecture.
Thanks... I knew enough when you said incendiary device.
"Incendiary device?" Ron asked through his mouthful of sweets.
It blows things up.
"Oh, why didn't you say so?" Ron said with a shrug.
And, so, we leave our heroes to rest on their laurels and start on their next adventure, the rest of their lives...
"Wait!" Harry exclaimed.
Harry looked stern. "What about Draco Malfoy? And, where did Snape end up?"
Oh... Umm... Well... Fine... Snape was actually following you the whole time, cleaning up the mess you left behind when you destroyed the horcruxes.
Did you really think all of those inferati just disappeared?
"I think you spelled that wrong," Hermoine pointed out.
Whatever... the murderous undead. Did you really think they just vanished after you destroyed the pretty object they were guarding.
"Ummm... yeah?" Ron replied.
Well, they didn't. Anyway, Snape is currently basking on a beach somewhere, enjoying the sun and the volleyball matches around him.
Harry looked stern. "And, Draco?"
We don't talk about him.
"Why not?" Hermoine wanted to know.
We just don't.
"Oh, please?" Harry asked, looking pitiful.
Oh fine. He got down from the chandelier and went directly to Gringotts. After getting all of his money removed, he went to the Thailand wizarding community.
"And?" Hermoine prompted.
I'll say no more. Just know, it has to do with tutus and slinkys.
"What's a slinky?" Ron asked, confused.
"I don't think I want to know," Hermoine stated after thinking a few moments on what Draco could be doing with tutus and slinkys.
"Whatever," Harry said with a shrug. "I'm off to do interviews for my harem!"
"What type of questions are you asking?" Hermoine asked.
Umm... I don't it's going to be a verbal interview.
"Harry James Potter!" Hermoine exclaimed to savior of the wizarding world, who was jogging away. "You get back here!"
As Hermoine took off to chase the boy-with-the-lightening-bolt, Ron spotted the ice cream parlour. "Mmmm... ice cream."
And, finally, we find out how Book 7 of the Harry Potter books ends.
-The End-
Obviously, I would love a review...

Jennifer Aniston Takes to the Stage for Charity
Jennifer Aniston made her Broadway debut last night when she joined Rosie Perez in a one-off production at a benefit theatre show.
Aniston played a single woman looking for love in Three Girls and Bob alongside Perez, Lynn Whitfield and David Cross in New York City's Times Square.
The 10-minute production and five other plays were conceived, written, rehearsed and performed during Monday for the Sixth Annual 24 Hour Plays, which raises money to bring arts education to local schools.
White Men Can't Jump star Perez enthuses, "We had a real boost from Jennifer Aniston. She was as sweet as pie. I really appreciated her coming because she raised the profile of tonight's event and that is going to help so much. She didn't have to do this. She didn't have to take time out of her schedule.
"The 24 Hour Plays people approached her and she said yes. But when she found out about Working Playground, she was over the moon. She said, 'I'll do all the press. I'll do whatever you want.'"
Other actors participating in the fundraiser include Anna Paquin, Kieran Culkin, Julianna Margulies, Sam Rockwell, Elizabeth Berkley, Liev Schreiber and Fisher Stevens.

Signaling for Aid is a Crucial Survival Skill That Takes Practice
Let's hope you never have to signify for help in an emergency situation, however if the scenario should develop, you wish to know that you can do it efficiently. You should practice signaling for help before you are stuck out in the wild alone.
It is a fantastic concept to keep with you, at all times,
A mobile phone or walkie-talkie for communication whenever possible. There are times when these products will not work. In these circumstances, you ought to have a whistle handy to alert others to your place. Blowing a whistle makes a great deal of noisy racket that will certainly get the attention of someone in the area. Make certain a whistle remains in your survival package.
If these types of signaling do not work, you need to use visual signals to draw in others to you. A strobe light can be a terrific way to obtain attention. Even a flashlight can be used in an emergency situation. Flares and smoke signals can bring the help to you quickly. You can even try your hand at using a signal mirror.
The key to visual signals for help is place, select the site carefully. It can make the distinction in between survival and death.
Signaling is best when carried out near your shelter in an area of clearing. Attempt an open field, lakeshore, or hill. The location needs to have high exposure for good results.
Indicate your distress using the S.O.S. signal. This is globally known to indicate somebody is in difficulty and requires assistance. Signal this to others by producing three brief signals, followed by 3 long signals, then 3 short signals.
Signal for help throughout the day with mirrors or using rocks and logs. Make the location visible by air and by ground. Spell out the word Help, for example in a cleaning with logs. If the search team is flying overhead, this will certainly get their attention, bringing the assistance to you rapidly.
The search team will be looking near the prepared route for you. This is why it is very important to stay near the organized area whenever possible. Venturing off searching for aid might not be the best strategy.
By night, your fire may show up. Use a strobe light or flashlight to signal for help. If the 3 short and long signals are hard, try signaling the exact same thing 3 times in a row. Repeat this step.
Make three fires in a row or triangle shape. This is another international signal for aid. The smoke from the fire shows up for miles throughout the day and highly visible by night.
Knowing distress signals and understanding how to utilize flares or mirrors can send out assistance in your instructions when you need it. Practice these outside survival skills prior to an emergency shows up to permit the very best results in the event of a survival circumstance. Hand mirrors for signaling, for example, are
Not the simplest gizmos to master. Pair with a good friend and see if the 2 of you can send signals to each other utilizing the mirrors. This activity is fun and practices a survival ability, too.
Letting somebody understand you remain in trouble is the best method to obtain help. Fire, flares, and S.O.S. signals are outstanding ways to let others understand you are in distress. Mirrors and other signaling strategies take practice. Try your hand at the ability before you are in a survival situation.
