Take a few minutes out of your day to watch this touching video.
Memorial Day is totally different now. Before it was just a three day weekend.
Besides the usual menu of barbeques, lawn work, projects and more, take some time this Monday and honor our veterans, past and present.
Check out six tips for a better Memorial Day barbecue.
While vacationing and doing home improvement projects and such are fun, there's a reason we celebrate Memorial Day. Here's where you can go to honor our veterans.
Several dozen Boy Scouts and their parents tromped up and down the lanes of Richland's Sunset Memorial Gardens this morning planting tall flags next to the graves of men and women who served our country in the military...
The service men and women of our country make huge sacrifices to fight battles on our behalf and keep the freedoms we hold dear. One of those sacrifices is being away from their families and loved ones for long periods of time. The only thing that makes this sacrifice bearable for most is the incredible sweetness of coming home, even if it is only for a short leave.

The U.S. Open is about to bring the tennis world together into our backyard, but here on Long Island, the local tennis scene is anything but cohesive and it's worth a discussion.
Self-promotion is a great way to grow your program, but sadly, I see many examples of some going too far with dishonest representations, or even worse, in belittling other clubs and programs which does a great disservice to our tennis community as a whole.
I cannot help but notice, for example, the pros who take pictures with the winners of tournaments and post these pictures on social media to suggest that they have coached that player in a meaningful way with deceptive hash tags when they have not. These and other disingenuous practices need to stop.
Tennis is a highly competitive sport and business. We are all entitled to our opinions and thoughts, but we need to be accountable for our actions because the tennis community is not stupid. Let's not forget, we are leaders and role models for children. If we don't compete with restraint, boundaries and fairness with one another, we should not complain about the tennis community's realization that we are not fit to teach competition to anyone.

'Targeted' air strike on refugee camp leaves dozens dead
DOZENS lie dead after an "inexcusable" air strike was unleashed on a Syrian refugee camp.
US government officials confirmed today that at least 28 people, including women and children, had been killed.
The camp, reportedly located in Syria, is one of a number in the country holding the millions displaced by the ongoing conflict.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest slammed the violence in a Washington DC press briefing today, describing it as a targeted "military action".
"The camp took two direct hits. I heard many tents were on fire"Local activist
He said: "There is no justifiable excuse for carrying out an air strike against innocent civilians who have already once fled their homes to escape violence
"These individuals are in the most desperate situation imaginable, and there is no justification for carrying out military action that's targeting them."
While there is not yet confirmation as to who's responsible for the attack, government forces under Bashar al-Assad have been criticised in the past for targeting civilians.
A number of sources on Twitter, sharing footage of the aftermath of the attack, have already blamed Assad and his Russian allies for the destruction.
The camp is located near the town of Sarmada in Syria's Idlib province, close to the Turkish border, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
Abu Ibrahim al-Sarmadi, a local activist, said the camp took "direct hits" from the bombers and the wounded were being rushed to Turkey for treatment.
"There were two aerial strikes that hit this makeshift camp for refugees who have taken refuge from fighting in southern Aleppo and Palmyra," he said.
"The camp took two direct hits. I heard many tents were on fire."
The Observatory said the death toll was expected to rise in the coming hours.
Racked by civil war, Syria is torn between government forces, rebel groups and radical Islamists like ISIS.
Western forces have stated their opposition to Assad retaining absolute power in the country, but Russia is backing the dictator.
All sides have declared their opposition to Islamic State, but Russia has been accused of bombing moderate rebels instead of targeting ISIS.

If you see me on the bus there is a good chance I won't see you. I'll be in Natalie-world. I go there a lot... during my long walks in the hills, in the line-up at the supermarket, and in particularly boring meetings at work.
Natalie-world can be funny, futuristic, magical or horrific. Often it is all of these things. I don't control Natalie-world, I just sit back and watch. When I watch it often enough I'll end up putting it down on paper. This is how my stories are born.
As most writers will probably attest, when you are steeped in stories all the time you can never be afraid of 'alone time' because you are never alone. Between work, family, house maintenance and friends I'm lucky if I get ten hours a week to write. I'd easily spend three times as long visiting my imaginary worlds, falling in love, in hate or indifference with a bunch of people (or creatures) who have never existed.
I wouldn't have it any other way.
As for me, I've spent my life collecting experiences, which is possibly why I have had more careers than most people have jobs (yes, I really have done everything from air traffic control to zoology). After 15 years of living in Melbourne, I've recently returned to Adelaide where I could get a house and raise a cat of my own. I am a member of Adelaide's Hiro's Ink writers group, to whom I am indebted. I feel like my writing gets better after every meeting. I also still hover at the edges of my Melbourne writers group, SuperNova. Those guys taught me more about writing than any university course ever could. Thank you.
I don't claim to be a great writer, you won't be highlighting my 'beautiful' sentences and writing them in your diary. I do hope to scare you, or make you cry, or make you laugh, but most importantly, to make you think. My work is all about the story and my journey is to learn the skills to paint the picture in the best way possible.
I'm getting closer to my 10,000 hours of writing, and I hope that is reflected in my writing. How I get my stories hasn't changed over the many years I've been trying to write them. So if you see me, just be aware that I might be off with some flesh eating marsupials, or were-possums or a flying obsidian dog. Approach with caution.

While the story for commercial lines in general continues to include overall softening conditions as excess capital and capacity drive competition, Commercial Auto/Trucking is heading in the opposite direction, with some companies exiting parts of the market and rates generally on the rise.
The need for harder market conditions in Commercial Auto — particularly within certain segments — has been recognized for a few years, even if the timing was in doubt.
In 2014, during a conference call to discuss Q1 results that year, W. Robert Berkley, then-COO and current CEO and president of W.R. Berkley Corp., called the Commercial Transportation segment "a great puzzle" and noted the line had long seemed ripe for a hardening that hadn't come. That same year, Fitch Ratings noted price deterioration prior to 2011, combined with an erosion of underwriting standards, had led to underwriting losses and unfavorable reserve development. A recent Insurance Information Institute (I.I.I.) chart illustrates that the combined ratio for Commercial Auto crossed the 100 mark in 2011, and remained there through 2014 after eight straight years of combined ratios lower than 100.
Experts recognize that the current hardening was a long time in coming. Nationwide's Paul Farrell, senior consultant, Business Auto, says rates had been "too squishy for too long. There's been such competitiveness that it's got to have a little bit of a rebound."
"That line got pretty severely underpriced about five to eight years ago, and they're just catching up to it," says James Lynch, director, Information Services and chief actuary for I.I.I. "They figured it out about two or three years ago as claims started rolling in from those older years, and they've been responding as a result."
Mark Plousis, vice president of Underwriting for Philadelphia Insurance Cos., says his company recognized the trends about 36 months ago and began adjusting — weeding out poor performers, filing for rate increases where necessary, implementing loss-control measures and taking a state-by-state approach to underwriting the line.
"Our book is better now because of what we've done," he says. "Unfortunately," he adds, "the losses coming in now are probably from accounts that have been off the books, but we feel that our in-force book is in a better position than it was previously because we did recognize the trends and implemented action plans."
The claims picture darkens
Competitive pricing alone did not cause the shift to a harder market: Experts largely point to increasing claim severity as well, driven by a variety of factors. "Loss costs have risen very dramatically with Auto," says Plousis. "The inflationary issues that come along with claim payments and claims expenses and litigation have risen drastically."
For claim expenses, medical costs are certainly a significant contributor, but plenty of insurance lines are subject to medical cost inflation. What makes Commercial Auto unique?
For one thing, the persistence of the injuries tends to be a little longer, says Farrell. On average, claim duration is longer from a car or truck crash, with more lost days than on an average Workers' Comp claim, for example.
Experts point to other factors increasing the severity and even frequency of claim incidents (Willis Towers Watson's Spring 2016 "Marketplace Realities" report cites both higher frequency and severity), such as increased activity on the roads, distracted driving and the nation's aging infrastructure.
Apart from liability, the cost of vehicle repairs also has risen. Farrell says more vehicles than ever before are being totaled as designs are altered to meet fuel and weight standards.

Litigation issues
In terms of litigation trends, Craig Dancer, Transportation practice leader for Marsh, points out some factors that separate trucking from many insurance lines. "We've found that plaintiffs' bars are very active," he says. "They've created sort of a cottage industry in going after truckers."
In claims involving a for-hire motor carrier and, say, a passenger vehicle, Dancer says it's not too difficult for a plaintiff's attorney to build a case against the for-hire carrier. Attorneys have access to all sorts of data on commercial fleets — such as information available from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration — that they can use to see how an individual carrier ranks against peer groups. "It becomes quite easy for a plaintiff's attorney to say, 'Look, this guy wasn't following safety protocols correctly,' or, 'He wasn't fit to drive.'"
Plousis says state laws also complicate the Commercial Auto landscape, noting that in no-fault states such as New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Florida, a Commercial Auto insurer has to pay medical bills along with potential bodily injury claims, "so you're getting double-hit in those states. There are times in some states where it's like dancing in a minefield. No matter what you do, it's a difficult task."
Farrell likewise talks about "bizarre jurisdictional scenarios" in some states that complicate Commercial Auto liability claims. With joint and several liability rules in some states, he notes, another party in a claim could have been drunk and caused a crash by running a stop sign, but if the insured commercial driver was going five miles per hour over the speed limit and is found 1% negligent, that insured could end up paying the entire claim.
It all adds up to a market that has become more difficult for insurers, and has become a universal issue. "I read a lot of competitors' reports — annual reports and quarterly reports — and they're all taking about the same drastic increase in severity for auto-related claims," Plousis says.
Lynch notes that major carriers' financial hits in this line over the past two years have progressed to the point at which they have specifically referenced Commercial Auto in earnings reports and conference calls. AIG, for example, mentioned higher Commercial Auto losses as one reason for its higher 2015 Q3 accident year loss ratio. That same quarter, Zurich Insurance Group pointed to U.S. Auto liability as a reason for weaker-than-expected profitability in its General Insurance business.
Willis Towers Watson says notable insurers have been restricting their appetite for Commercial Auto liability and looking for double-digit rate increases for risks with poor loss experience.
Plousis says he's seen some competitors leaving the market entirely. "There have been people entering," he notes, "but not at the rate people have been exiting."
Rebecca Roberts, managing director for Burns & Wilcox's Indianapolis location, also says she is seeing standard carriers pull back a bit in the past few years, creating opportunities in the Excess & Surplus lines space. "When I speak to that, I refer to heavier classes of vehicles," she notes. "Standard [carriers] have a lot better luck with lighter trucks."
The issue for some insureds then becomes whether they can afford the deep expertise delivered by the E&S market. If their premiums go up too sharply, it is tough for them to stay in business, says Roberts, "and I'm shocked at how many conversations like that we've had in the last year."
Timothy H. Delaney, senior vice president, Passenger Transportation at Lancer Insurance Co., says the market is perhaps a bit more nuanced these days. Of carrier appetite, he says: "There is plenty of competition, but generally at higher rates than insureds were paying five to six years ago."
Managing rates for clients
The tougher landscape complicates what is already a challenging line. "Commercial Auto" covers a wide range of vehicles and uses, and each segment comes with its own risks and carrier appetite.
"Auto is especially tricky because the exposure range is so great," says Farrell. "There's a certain finesse in underwriting required, and it ranges."
At one end, he explains, there is trucking, with fleets of 50 tractor trailers operating out of multiple terminals across state lines and complying with federal regulations. At the other end, there could be a (non-owned) fleet of three pizza delivery vehicles for which the insurer intends to be the excess writer, with the individual pizza delivery personnel carrying their own insurance. Yet sometimes the insurer can end up as the primary because it never asked if the drivers have insurance, or if there is a business exclusion on the personal policy.
Experts point to increasing rates in nearly all Commercial Auto segments — but Marsh's Dancer says trucking is seeing particularly severe tightening in the current market, with long over-the-road tour operators experiencing similar conditions. He says some trucking companies are looking into alternative risk transfer methods, such as forming group captives, as they see their premiums rise.
Dancer says Marsh emphasizes safety and claim management for the captives it manages, but he says the members themselves play a large role in enforcing that mindset. They scrutinize each other's loss experience and try to identify any negative trends. "They're looking at it month-to-month rather than once a year" like a traditional underwriter, he adds.
Dancer notes there is no one solution for everyone when it comes to managing the higher cost of insurance, "but you have to be in position to get creative." From a broker standpoint, he says Marsh is making sure its people start conversations with transportation accounts earlier to educate them about the marketplace and the type of renewal they are going to have. In the current rate environment, he adds, "It is a challenging discussion to have."
Daniel Bancroft, Transportation practice leader at Willis Towers Watson, says there are things trucking operations can do to manage premiums. He agrees that rates are on the rise, but says motor carriers that are very safe and have good Compliance, Safety, Accountability scores from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration are finding renewals that are consistent.
Bancroft says fleets should look to adopt advanced technology such as telematics and drive cams to improve driver safety. Companies that do so, he says, are seeing dramatic reductions in frequency and severity.
Farrell says Nationwide does factor safety measures such as the use of technology into its underwriting, but he says underwriters have to be careful not to issue a "seal of approval" just because a company invested in telematics. "That factor alone is not a compelling reason to say they have it all figured it out," he adds. The data has to be carried back to the driver to actually modify his or her behavior.
Roberts notes that a focus on driver safety has more value than just managing insurance premiums. For large, federally regulated fleets, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration can shut them down if the operation is deemed unsafe.
Cameras are also of help to insurers during the claims process. "There has been a push to have cameras in the vehicle to record the situation around an accident," she notes. "Sometimes it helps us and sometimes it hurts us, but either way we know exactly what happens in the accident. If we were at fault, we can come to an agreement faster as opposed to disputing what led up to the claim."


text: This is just for curiosity really, I was wondering if the vwii could be set back to a clean unmodded state. I know you can just uninstall the hbc, but I was more thinking about the custom ios that's installed to run the USB loaders. Obviously we made a backup of our NAND before we modded, could that be somehow used to restore the vwii to an unhacked state with all the original ios intact whilst removing the custom ones? And also I'm curious about what happens when the wiiu is formatted, does that affect the vwii in anyway and alter anything that's been installed on there in terms of channels or ios? Like I said its all curiosity, just wondered if the soft mods are permanent (except possible future updates from nintendo to overwrite them) or can the vwii be reverted back to an original state?

We had a week of magical celebrations for the one true hero of children's books—Roald Dahl. To celebrate his birthday on 13th September, we had a week packed with epic things; there was a daily fun filled scavenger hunt searching for elusive 'Golden Tickets', with the gloriumptious prizes of fizz-popping and whizz-banging sweets, sweets… and more sweets!
The LRC showed it's Roald Dahl colours with a dahlicious display of some of Dahl's best works, including the novels such as 'The BFG' (my personal favourite) 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' and 'Matilda' (Leane's favourite).
The final touch was the Craft Club making Dream Jars for the display, sharing student's dreams and giving off that true childhood enchantment we all experienced through reading Roald Dahl.

Reserves end campaign with 1-1 draw
Valeri Bojinov training 0708
Manchester City's reserves drew 1-1 against Middlesbrough on Tuesday night and moved up to second place in the Barclays Premier reserve League North table.
Bulgarian striker Valeri Bojinov played almost 80 minutes at the Riverside Stadium as he stepped up his match-fitness in the hope of being involved in any of the final three games of the season.
Middlesbrough started the match brighter than the Blues and it was no surprise Gaizka Mendieta was pulling the strings in the Boro engine room. But it was City midfielder Paul Marshall who almost opened the scoring just short of the 15 minute mark with a swerving shot that needed Steele to make a smart stop.
City survived a penalty claim on the half hour as Tom Craddock's shot across goal was blocked by Clayton McDonald - the referee rightly pointed to his shoulder and playing on though.
Adam Clayton then went close with a 20-yard strike which had the beating of Steele, but curled just wide of the post.
Mendieta was at the heart of everything good that Boro did during the first half, but he couldn't prevent Adam Clayton giving the Blues the lead after 44 minutes.
A corner from the left was won in the air by McDonald and midfielder Clayton was on hand to prod home the rebound from close range.
The lively Alex Nimley almost started the second half with a goal. He charged down goalkeeper Steele's clearance and as the ball rolled towards the goal, Williams managed to clear off the line and away to safety.
And that clearance was to prove vital as on 70 minutes the home team pulled level. Tom Craddock latched on to a long ball from Mendieta and fired home high into the goal beyond Isaksson.
Middlesbrough pressed for a winner they maybe deserved, but in the end it took a fine save from Isaksson five minutes from time to deny Franks' and Boro a winning goal.
So the point is enough to move above Manchester United in the table and Ian Miller's men will be guaranteed the runners-up spot behind Liverpool if Blackburn Rovers fail to beat Sunderland tonight.

Exciting results are possible, sometimes without shots, drilling, cord packing and temporaries. This presentation covers the use of very thin, laboratory-fabricated veneers. Participants that complete the presentation will acquire useful information in many areas, including the following:
Prepped, minimal-prep or no-prep veneers — what does your patient want? More and more patients are seeking no-prep veneers, to avoid the discomfort and inconvenience of prepping. Veneers are thinner and more durable than ever, and technology now exists that will enable you to address many commonly encountered esthetic challenges and achieve patient-pleasing results, sometimes without shots or drilling. The seven clinical cases in this set of videos demonstrate how no-prep veneers have improved greatly over the last few years, and provide techniques for placing these veneers in cases when minimal prepping may have been needed in the past.
Dr. Michael DiTolla provides insight on how to decide whether no-prep veneers are an option for your case, answers some common questions dentists have about no-prep veneers, and gives tips to make sure you achieve the ultimate results, including how to provide the proper shading for these shade-adjustable veneers. He walks you through cases where no-prep veneers are not the obvious choice yet provide great results. Dr. DiTolla even highlights a case where minimal-prep and no-prep veneers are used on the same patient, giving you a unique side-by-side comparison.
CAUTION: When viewing the techniques, procedures, theories and materials that are presented, you must make your own decisions about specific treatment for patients and exercise personal professional judgment regarding the need for further clinical testing or education and your own clinical expertise before trying to implement new procedures.
"We strive to drive down restorative costs and expand patient access to affordable dentistry."

I have just solved this my self and was simple to do. I logged in to my router clicked, on wireless settings under the set up category, and where it says channel there is a drop down box with Auto (which mine was set on) and channels listed 1 to 13. I selected 3 (not really sure why 3)and then apply, then it did its thing of connecting and hey presto he has a good connection. So hopefully this seems to have worked, but will monitor it over the next few days to make sure it has improved.

Review for Cadillac Of South Charlotte Body Shop
Lucia R. on 12/22/2014
Lucia said the business completed everything her vehicle needed. They contacted her when the vehicle was ready but she did not receive any updates during the repair process. The only issue she experienced was the staff member that contacted her to pick up the vehicle was very terse and told her she needed to come now to pick up the vehicle.

Looking more and more like Petraeus may have been on the left all along we just didn't know.That alone can explain a lot. This story is a bit convoluted. At first I heard that petraeus broke off the affair when he joined cia. Than later I heard he kept on e-mailing the woman--huge numbers of e mails.Hard to sort it all out.
She is the assistant Director for the Office of Servicemember Affairs
"At the CFPB, Holly Petraeus conducts outreach with military families, and has been an important figure in its crackdowns on abusive lending and illegal foreclosures that banks have performed against military families in recent years. Banks are legally barred from foreclosing on the homes of active-duty military personnel, but had ignored the rule in recent years, until the CFPB began monitoring the abuses.
Holly Petraeus also flagged banking problems for military families who had been ordered by the armed services to relocate. In cases where families were having trouble paying their mortgage, banks were erroneously encouraging homeowners to miss payments — a situation which led to needless foreclosures. In many other cases, banks were simply failing to respond to homeowner inquiries or work out alternative payment options for families who had to move for their military jobs. Holly Petraeus helped craft new regulatory guidance cracking down on such abuses."
I do believe he has referred to himself as a 'Rockefeller Republican', which should have been all the hint anyone would need.

Durban - While National freedom Party (NFP) founder Zanele Magwaza-Msibi was elected unopposed as the first president of the 10-month-old party, her former leader, IFP president Mangosuthu Buthelezi, will likely get a deputy for the first time in 35 years.Both parties held conferences at the weekend. The NFP gathered for its inaugural conference at the Pietermaritzburg campus of the University of KwaZulu-Natal and the IFP held its KZN provincial conference at Edgewood campus.Among the resolutions taken by the IFP's biggest province, was to establish a deputy president position, while reiterating a request to Buthelezi to continue leading the party beyond the national elective conference scheduled to take place early next year.In his keynote address, Buthelezi accused the breakaway NFP of introducing corruption through "bribes and vote buying" within the IFP."Unfortunately this kind of corruption also entered the IFP with the antics of the 'Friends of VZ' [Magwaza- Msibi ]. We witnessed the setting up of bogus branches, bribery of members and leaders, the enrichment of tenderpreneurs and the buying of votes … For all practical purposes, the 'Friends of VZ' have left the IFP, but the remnants of the culture of corruption are lingering …"'Dying party'Responding to Buthelezi's attack on Sunday, Magwaza-Msibi appealed to him to leave her party alone "and concentrate on rebuilding his dying party".Former uMzinyathi mayor Mbangiseni Yengwa was elected unopposed as IFP provincial chairperson after the withdrawal from the race of Blessed Gwala, while former IFPYB leader Simo Mfayela was elected deputy.Although there were two opposing camps with different leadership lists, most senior positions were elected unopposed after it was clear that the Yengwa faction had canvassed more support from party structures.At the NFP conference, attended by over 2 000 delegates from eight provinces, Magwaza-Msibi challenged ill-disciplined members and those still sympathetic to the IFP, saying they are welcome to leave the party."We had incidents where some councillors decided to disobey the instructions of the national leadership. I want to stress that there are no free agents in this party, the members of this party are bound by its constitution and the members who failed to abide by this will have a problem."Political unknown Alex Kekana from the North West was elected as Magwaza-Msibi's deputy, while uThukela District Deputy Mayor Maliyakhe Shelembe beat Zululand Speaker Mpiyakhe Hlatshwayo to become the national chairperson.Professor Nhlanhla Khubisa became the secretary-general, beating Dr Cedric Xulu, and Phumlani Zwane of Gauteng took the deputy national chairperson. Scelo Mabika of Mkhanyakude (Jozini) became deputy secretary-general.
COPE should learn from the NFP
NPF is just another way of saying ANC lacky, like COPE this party is nothing more than an ANC puppet.

Theodore Roosevelt Quotes About FightingQuotes about: Fighting
Criticism is necessary and useful; it is often indispensable; but it can never take the place of action, or be even a poor substitute for it. The function of the mere critic is of very subordinate usefulness. It is the doer of deeds who actually counts in the battle for life, and not the man who looks on and says how the fight ought to be fought, without himself sharing the stress and the danger.
We Americans have many grave problems to solve, many threatening evils to fight, and many deeds to do, if, as we hope and believe, we have the wisdom, the strength, and the courage and the virtue to do them. But we must face facts as they are. We must neither surrender ourselves to a foolish optimism, nor succumb to a timid and ignoble pessimism.
The function of our Government is to insure to all its citizens, now and hereafter, their rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. If we of this generation destroy the resources from which our children would otherwise derive their livelihood, we reduce the capacity of our land to support a population, and so either degrade the standard of living or deprive the coming generations of their fight to life on this continent.
If I were a factory employee, a workman on the railroads or a wage-earner of any sort, I would undoubtedly join the union of my trade. If I disapproved of its policy, I would join in order to fight that policy; if the union leaders were dishonest, I would join in order to put them out. I believe in the union and I believe that all men who are benefited by the union are morally bound to help to the extent of their power in the common interests advanced by the union.
Do not get into a fight if you can possibly avoid it. If you get in, see it through. Don't hit if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting, but never hit soft. Don't hit at all if you can help it; don't hit a man if you can possibly avoid it; but if you do hit him, put him to sleep.
I regard the Masonic institution as one of the means ordained by the Supreme Architect to enable mankind to work out the problem of destiny; to fight against, and overcome, the weaknesses and imperfections of his nature, and at last to attain to that true life of which death is the herald and the grave the portal.
Unjust war is to be abhorred; but woe to the nation that does not make ready to hold its own in time of need against all who would harm it! And woe thrice over to the nation in which the average man loses the fighting edge, loses the power to serve as a soldier if the day of need should arise!

A hard inquiry is when you apply
For credit by filling out an application and signing it. Be aware that in some situations, lenders can do hard inquiries with out your consent, if they have a viable reason to believe they may be extending credit. (i.e.) A car dealer only needs your name and city to do a credit check on you. They pay for access to the credit bureaus so they do not actually need your signature.
You really should take time to read up on the articles here on CK and learn what these terms are and what they mean. You will have to deal with your credit for the rest of your life, Your credit score is the most important number in your financial life, it will determine everything from interest rates on credit cards and loans, rates for auto insurance, Weather you can rent an apt. and sometimes weather you get a certain job or not.
Educate your self so you can manage your credit and not the other way around.
Good luck

The French business daily La Tribune said Wednesday it had been granted protection from its creditors for six months as its owners try to turn around the struggling newspaper.
The Paris business court granted the six-month bankruptcy protection which "will facilitate the reorganisation of La Tribune by allowing it to continue operating while temporarily freezing its debts," chief executive Valerie Decamp said in a statement.
She said the newspaper plans to keep implementing the development strategy it launched last year, which is bearing fruit.
The daily, which has been seeking new investors for months, is expecting a loss of up to nine million euros (12 million dollars) for last year.
Decamp acquired an 80 percent stake in the newspaper last year for a symbolic one euro.

After months of falling prices UK housing market finally begins to rise
HOUSE prices rose in Britain last month.
UK prices rose by 0.6pc in January, almost completely reversing the previous month's decline, data from Halifax showed yesterday.
House prices fell by -1.8pc in the three months to January compared with a year ago, taking the average price of a home to £160,907 (€194,177). "The continuing very low level of interest rates has helped to support housing demand, resulting in little overall movement in house prices since last spring," said housing economist Martin Ellis.

His memories fill the pages, as if his book were a lavish banquet table and his experiences an endless series of tasty hors d`oeuvres. But that analogy is too formal and the image it evokes too proper for ``Hello Everybody, I`m Lindsey Nelson,`` which is a delightful jaunt through a rich life always characterized by self-effacement. So forget the candelabras, starched tablecloths and waiters bedecked in tuxedos, and imagine yourself holed up with a good buddy who`s telling tales at the corner table of your favorite watering hole.
Nelson, of course, will have removed his garish sportcoat, and he will relate his stories as unpretentiously as he has done his job over the decades. He`ll talk of Leo Durocher, his broadcast partner on NBC`s baseball telecasts in 1957 (``For our first telecast . . . he didn`t have a scorebook because he did not know how to keep one.``), and of Casey Stengel and the original New York Metropolitans (whose name was selected in a contest even though their owner, Joan Payson, wanted to call them the ``Meadowlarks``). He`ll tell you why General Motors` execs were apoplectic when they saw Russ Hodges doing their college football ads (he was a dead ringer for their old nemesis, United Automobile Workers` president Walter Reuther), and tell you about the curious circumstances that surrounded his own debut as a television sportscaster in 1952.

Chapter Eleven: Killing Things
"Hello, my name is Willow Rosenberg, and I'm a magic addict."
"Hi Willow." The circle greeted her. There were three men and four women of various ages in the group, as well as what Willow was fairly certain was some kind of ghost. After three sessions she was starting to feel more at ease opening up to the odd hodge-podge of spellcasters. It was comforting to know that she wasn't alone in her struggles against the lure of casting.
"It's been thirty days since my last spell." She shuddered at the thought before composing herself. "It hasn't all been easy. There have been things, dangerous things like mad scientists and demons… no offense." Willow said to the hunched over baby faced blonde 'woman' across from her.
"None taken." The demon woman said holding her speech enabler to her tracheotomy hole.
"Anyway, there have been things that I wished I could use my magic for, but I've been trying to do things the right way, the hard way. It feels weird going back to forensic chemistry and hacking after just doing things lickety split with a spell. After we raided the mad scientist's lair we found all these artifacts and spell scrolls, and I had to practically tie myself up not to tear into them."
"I've been there." A man in green nodded. "A new grimoire comes out and I just have to get it."
"I'm lucky I've got a good support network. My best friend helped clear out the all the magic stuff in our house. She really gets what I'm going through, and she's been way more forgiving than I deserve." Some of the others smiled at Willow's good fortune, but a couple looked jealous.
"My other best friend's fiancée wanted me to stop for a long time, and she's still really upset I let it get this far. Mostly because I promised to do the decorating for their wedding reception and now I can't. And she's mad on behalf of my girl… ex-girlfriend. I really hurt her most of all. Well, next to my best friend's little sister. It feels like she's coming around though, like she believes I want to get better. I think I'm going to be making it up to her for the rest of my life, but I've got to."
"I almost had a relapse a couple days ago. A witch friend of mine found out I was trying to quit and juiced me with her power. It was so difficult not to give in, like I was fighting with my own body. To make it worse, that night my best friend was fighting a demon that was eating workers at the Doublemeat Palace and she got paralyzed by its saliva. It took all my willpower not to unleash my mojo on it. I get worried, you know. Like what if things get bad, really bad and there's no way out but magic?"
"I'm hearing a lot of guilt Willow," the rather rotund woman leading the group said, "It's understandable that you feel guilt for the mistakes you've made. But you're just setting yourself up for failure if you start feeling guilty for things that might happen."
There were murmurs of agreement from around the circle.
"What would you have done about the demon before you learned magic?" A tall woman in a trench coat asked her.
"What I ended up doing, knocking it out and stuffing it into the meat grinder." Willow said. "I'm just not so good with the hand to hand combat stuff. It's why I started learning witchcraft in the first place."
"Do you feel like you don't have anything to contribute without the magic? I know I feel like that a lot." The man in green shared.
"Absolutely." Willow said. "But I have to remind myself that I'm good at other things, like computers and chemistry. I'm just kind of rusty after using magic as a crutch for so long."
"And those things don't have that rush." A short dark haired man grumbled in a quiet voice. His neighbors shifted uncomfortably.
"Well, now that we've all done individual sharing, let's get to group topics." The group leader said, pulling over her clipboard. "Do we have any suggestions for a name to replace 'Spellcasters Anonymous'?"
Elsewhere Spike and Buffy had missed the bed again and ended up beneath the rugs. They bantered for a bit before the Slayer remembered the time.
"You know, it's late. I should get home before Dawn goes to sleep. Have you seen my underwear?"
Spike leaned over to check the floor to their right, and Buffy saw imprints from her teeth in his shoulder. It sent a shiver through her, and not one of arousal. It scared her to see evidence of how animalistic she was behaving. She found her underwear after a search beneath the carpet and excused herself, somewhat anxious.
Buffy was left alone with her thoughts on her way home. She was still shaken by the sight of the bite marks. It wasn't like her; at least it wasn't like the way she wanted to see herself. Being aggressively sexual and just plain aggressive with a vampire she wasn't even willing to call her boyfriend, what kind of sicko freak did that?
Taken on its own that was worrying enough, but coupled with her near death wish it was frightening. What Spike had said last year about Slayers and their desire for an end had resonated with her, and despite what Kendra had said she knew it was something all her predecessors that had lived any appreciable length of time had felt as well. But her own longing for death had been coupled with months of intense revulsion for her closest friends, and all from something that hadn't even happened to her properly, just to a her in another reality. That wasn't something she thought all Slayers or even any decent people felt.
Losing herself in mauling demons, having sex without love and being violent her partner, getting angry at people who just wanted to help her, and engaging in self-destructive behavior; that didn't sound like her. It sounded like Faith.
Faith had been the one to agree with her bleak outlook on continuing to live. Something had gone terribly wrong with Faith and left her twisted. Angel had told them she was working on redeeming herself and made regular visits to her to prison, but she was still a murderer who had tried to commit suicide by vampire. Examining her own feelings and actions this past year it wasn't hard for Buffy to conclude that she was headed down the same path.
She wasn't sure if it was a corruption common to all Slayers who lasted longer than a few months, or if it was just her and Faith. Giles wasn't around for her to ask. But there was another person she could ask, a person who had been able to tell her apart from Faith by their auras without having ever met them before. After greeting Dawn, Buffy gave that person a call and set up a meeting.
Tara met Buffy at a secluded table on a pathway leading off the main quad of UC Sunnydale.
"Thanks for coming by." Buffy said as they sat down across from each other.
"Is it bad?" Tara asked gravely.
"I was sort of hoping you could tell me." The shorter blonde said softly.
The witch looked down, shaking her head. "I knew this was gonna happen." She turned her gaze up at Buffy. "What did Willow do now? Did she-she hurt anyone?"
"What?" Buffy said, realizing how vague she'd been the night before. "Uh, no, no. Um, Tara, this isn't about Willow."
"I-I thought that's why you didn't want to meet at the house." Tara explained.
"Uh, sorry. It's um… Willow's fine. She's been doing really well. You'd be proud of her." She assured her.
Tara bit her lip and nodded, looking down again. She had been scared to ask about Willow over the past month. After what had happened to Dawn she had almost given up hope that the girl could change. She wanted more than anything to believe she could, but she held herself back from getting too excited over the news. She didn't want to set herself up for disappointment if it all came crashing down. "Good. That's-that's good." She raised her head again, wondering what she had been called for if not Willow. "So-so what do you want to talk about?"
"Well you can read auras, right?" Tara nodded. "I think, I think I might have some kind of… Slayer sickness. In my, soul or spirit or whatever."
The older girl's brow knitted in confusion. "Why do you think that?"
Buffy sighed. "Well, things have been kind of off with me since we beat Glory. The visions and… everything. Then I killed that thaumagenesis demon and I got that disgusted feeling… I feel… different. There are things that…"
"And-and you think it has something to do with you being a Slayer?" Tara asked, still not quite understanding Buffy's logic.
"There are other Slayers who started to… act weird." Buffy said, leaving out Faith's name. "Some of the Watcher diaries talk about Slayer's auras changing over time, but I can't really tell what they're going on about. I… don't really want to bug Giles with this, and I'd ask Willow but…"
"I get it." Tara could see how worried her friend was, but wasn't sure she was qualified to help. "I can see auras, but I don't know exactly what they mean, really. From what I can tell you don't seem sick Buffy."
"Could you just check, please?" She pleaded gently. Tara agreed, hoping she could provide some comfort by doing this for her.
When Buffy came home from an early patrol Xander was teaching Dawn dance steps for the wedding reception. Both the bride and groom-to-be had new anxieties about the marriage since the arrival of Anya's old friend Halfrek. Xander was squicked by his first in-person look at a true vengeance demon face and was trying to get the image out of his head. Anya was unsettled by Halfrek's insinuations about her fiancé's feelings for her and had been doing her best to ignore or disprove them.
Dawn left to spend the night with Janice, both Buffy and Willow having confirmed things in person with Janice's mother already. Buffy was a bit sad, wishing she could have taken her free evening to spend a rare moment of quality time with her little sister. Normally she would have gone to Spike's to pass the time, but until Tara confirmed or denied her soul sickness she didn't want to dive back into that. She still needed a distraction, so she accepted the gang's invitation to the Bronze.
Spike waited and watched from the walkway of the Bronze. Buffy was doing her best not to give into her moodiness and was staying on the lower level with her friends. It was a shame they weren't going to have their rendezvous tonight, but the vampire had bigger things on his mind. Tomorrow night was a night he had been dreading more than any other. He had been content to let certain things play out as they had before, but Buffy's guilt over 'killing' a girl wasn't one of them.
Obviously the easiest solution would be to save the girl, but he didn't know exactly when or how she had died. From what he had gathered in the days after the incident the girl's death had been caused or at least known to the three nerds. After Willow had found the hideout Spike knew about they had fled and nestled into new quarters no one had uncovered by the time he had made his wish to Anya. He had been keeping an eye out for the time disrupting Rwasundi demons that were involved, but none had come to any of the demon hangouts since he'd been watching. That blonde geek, whose name escaped him, was probably going to summon them directly. That left him with nothing to do but wait.
One thing was for certain. He wasn't going to let Buffy think she was a killer. He thought she was overreacting, but knew that the desire to protect innocent life was an inherent part of what made Buffy Buffy, and he wouldn't convince her otherwise. It would come dangerously close to showing her that he knew more than he should, but it was the only way to keep her from hating herself.
Xander and Willow were done with work and school for the day, and the construction foreman still had a cramp from swing dancing all night. They were headed for the Magic Box and saw Tara coming out of the store, several books under her arm.
"Tara. What are you doin' here? I mean, uh, it's okay for you to be here if you things that you have to be here for." Willow tried to cover her slightly accusatory phrasing, not wanted to ruin her first chance to converse with Tara in weeks.
Xander saw the tension and longing between the exes and excused himself. "Yeah I'm gonna go bring Anya up to speed on that monkey situation." He smiled and gave a supportive nod to Tara and went inside.
"There-there's a monkey problem?" Tara asked, wondering if some simian demons were attacking.
"Only if you don't stretch first." Willow said looking at the books Tara was carrying. The blonde tried to shift them out of Willow's line of sight. "Watcher diaries? You studying to take over Giles' job?"
"N-not exactly. I-I was just doing some research on auras…" Tara didn't want to betray Buffy's confidence, knowing the Slayer had been nervous even coming to her with her worries.
"No, it's okay. I, I didn't expect you to stop looking up mystical stuff… You don't have to hide it." Willow assured her. "I'm not… I'm doing better. No spells for thirty two days." She gave Tara a small but proud smile, which the taller girl returned. Some part of Tara was pleased that Willow had managed to make good on her promise to go without for a month eventually, even if she'd broken it initially. "I can even go to the magic shop now, as long as someone's with me at all times. But, uh… But it's better now. It really is. You know, if you were checkin' on me."
"No, I-I wouldn't…" Tara heaved a sigh. She had been willing to let Willow do whatever she wanted with her life after leaving her, not expecting her to change for someone who wasn't even in a relationship with her anymore. Of course, she had prayed Willow would change for her own sake. "I was just looking for Buffy."
Willow deflated a little that Tara hadn't been coming to see her. It was no more than she should expect, she reminded herself "Oh. Well I haven't seen her since last night. She's on solo patrol a lot these days. We kinda miss her." That was the closest she could come to saying, 'I miss you.'
Tara caught the subtext of Willow's words. She missed Willow immensely too. "I'm sure she feels the same way. If you see her, can you tell her that I need to talk to her? It's important."
"Yeah, of course I will."
"Thanks." She walked past Willow, and then turned around, needing to say something more. Seeing her had brought up all the desire and loneliness she'd been trying to suppress. "Will?" They looked at each other, unspoken yearning burning through them both. "I'm… I'm glad that you're doing better." Tara tried to smile one last time before leaving. The air was lighter between them, but it was still too soon for a true reunion. Willow didn't know if they were on the right track just yet, but with luck they were.
Buffy tried to focus on patrol, but her feet took her automatically to Spike's crypt. He could feel her drawing closer, and went to wait by the door. She touched the stone, fighting her instinct to go inside. When Spike opened the door she had left, as he expected she might.
"Don't think about the evil bloodsucking fiend. Focus on anything but the evil bloodsucking fiend." She chanted to herself as she put distance between herself and Spike. A woman's scream pierced the night's quiet. Buffy looked to heaven in gratitude. "Thank you."
The Slayer ran off to rescue her. She saw a robed figure chasing the woman and pounced on it. To her astonishment it simply vanished. Buffy got to her feet and looked around for signs of the demon.
The same woman appeared again, this time lying on the ground in front of her sobbing.
"It's okay. I'm gonna get you out of here. Can you walk? Are you hurt?" The woman didn't respond, and Buffy was assaulted with a barrage of disembodied voices.
"Buffy, what did you do? What did you do, Buffy?"
She looked down as the voices died off and saw Spike sprawled on the ground instead of the woman. He was bleeding from the lip.
"Ow! Buffy, it's me."
"Spike?" Before she could puzzle out what had happened several cloaked demons showed up and began to brawl with her and Spike. He snapped one of their necks and called to her, trying to grab her attention.
The demons vanished, leaving her with Spike. He was unwounded.
"Spike, what's happening?" She asked.
"Buffy, I know things are confusing but you have to listen to me." He walked up to her. "Things aren't what they seem. The demons…" Suddenly she was fighting the demons again, and one of her blows hit Spike, splitting his lip and sending him to the forest floor.
"Ow! Buffy, it's me." He said exactly as he had before.
The woman from before walked by sobbing and lied down. Buffy just looked at her, bewildered. The demons warped in and attacked her again, continuing to vanish and reappear. "Buffy!" Spike called to her just as she hit the woman, sending her rolling down a hill. Buffy ran down the hill after her, Spike still fighting the demons in vamp face. They tackled him and he growled. "Bugger off." He punched through the demon's stomach and followed Buffy to the foot of the hill. "Buffy." He said soothingly.
Buffy was horrified. There it was, confirmation of her illness. She was a murderer, the thing she most feared becoming. "She's dead. I killed her."
"We have to go." Spike said, trying to lead her away from the body.
"What happened?" She asked, still trying to process the order of events. It was all a blur but the death.
"I'll explain everything, just come with me. We have to go before someone sees you."
"What did I do?" Buffy demanded.
"We have to go, now." He tried to pick her up with her body shuddering. Spike led her through the woods to a safe spot. "All right. Listen to me, Buffy. Buffy!" He held her shoulder and she didn't look at him until he shouted 'no!' to stop her from leaving.
"She's dead." Buffy said, haunted.
"It wasn't you." He said firmly.
"What are you talking about, I hit her, and then she fell! I killed her."
"Listen, that girl was dead before you even saw her." Buffy shook her head disbelieving. "No, really. Those were demons called Rwasundi. They make time go all wobbly 'round them. You never hit the girl."
"But I saw…"
"You saw a twisted up batch of nonsense." He rubbed her shoulders, pulling her closer. "Think Buffy. Where have you seen that girl before?" She tried to remember as he laid out more clues to lead her to the identity of the real culprits without saying it outright. "Did you know her from somewhere?"
It took her a minute, but suddenly memories of the woman's face brought her back to their brief meeting months earlier. Her name came back to her, Katrina. She had been there to witness her stormy breakup with… Warren Mears.
"Oh my god." She whispered. "You don't think… Warren...?"
"I don't know pet, but I do know you. You aren't a killer." He ran his fingers up and down her arm.
"We have to tell the police, they have to find him…" She said, her horror slowly becoming anger.
"Demons in the woods? Time going wonky? They won't believe you." Spike said resolutely.
"We'll show them."
"No, you aren't getting involved in some murder investigation that had sod all to do with you." He said angrily. "I'll call the police and let them know about the body." He could see Buffy's reluctance and pulled her against his body, stroking her back. "It's all right love. I'm gonna get you home, and you're gonna crawl in your warm, comfy bed and stay there. We're gonna sort this out. Trust me."
Hazel eyes looked into blue, and she could feel the sincerity in the vampire's words. She let him lead her home, and they kissed in her bed for the first time before Buffy drifted to sleep. She was too disoriented to stop herself. Spike went to dump Katrina's body in the river so it would wash up where the police could find it. He wasn't any more eager to get himself involved in a murder investigation than Buffy.
Buffy dreams were as disjointed in time as the events in the woods had been, flashing between the fight, Katrina's 'death', her sleeping with Spike two nights before and kissing him before she fell asleep. At one point she was holding a stake over Katrina, who was bound in the handcuffs she and Spike had used in their last session. "Do you trust me?" She asked.
The next day Buffy shook herself out of her lingering guilt, placing the blame where it belonged: the Trio. She called a meeting at the Magic Box to discuss the events of the last night. Anya confirmed that the demons she had seen were called Rwasundi and that they distorted humans' perception of chronology. She mentioned Warren's connection to the death and Willow looked up Katrina's coroner's report on her laptop.
"They're saying she died of head wounds consistent with a long fall. It's being reported as a suicide." The hacker said disheartened. Buffy's anger grew. She was more convinced with every passing moment that Warren had had at least a hand in Katrina's death.
"This isn't a coincidence. Warren's ex-girlfriend, rare demons showing up at just the right place, time going all wiggy; this caper has the nerds stamped all over it."
"Not to mention them trying to pin it all on you." Anya added.
"The police aren't going to be any help." Buffy said.
"Because they're usually so reliable." Xander quipped sarcastically.
"We have to do something." The Slayer said seriously. "We have to find Warren and the others before anyone else gets hurt."
"Where do we start?" Willow asked. She had tracked them down once before, but the information that had led her to their last headquarters had dried up.
"Wherever we can." Buffy said with a shrug. "Look at the traffic light pictures, see if we can track the van. Anything at all."
In all honesty Willow knew that wasn't likely to give them any useful information, but she didn't want to let Buffy down. The old her might have tried to triangulate the lair of the nerds with one of the relics salvaged from their last lair, but she was determined not to use magic, no matter how dire the circumstances.
Buffy was thinking along the same lines, but was considering asking Tara for help to spare Willow from magic exposure. That reminded her that tonight was the night Tara was coming over to discuss her findings with her. She decided to hold off on asking for more favors when she didn't even know if they would need them. Looking for the trio was important, but if Willow was going to stop using magic then they all had to learn to rely on mundane methods to solve their problems first.
The girls met in the Summers' living room, Dawn having gone to sleep. Buffy wasn't comfortable exposing her concerns to anyone else just yet, especially to her sister.
"Well, I've read all the entries that had anything to do with souls and auras." Tara began. "There aren't that many. But from what I can tell, you have a normal, healthy Slayer aura. Extra bright and powerful. There's nothing evil infecting you that I can see. You-You're actually brighter than some of the Slayers they talk about."
That wasn't the result Buffy had been expecting. "Are you sure?" She asked nervously.
"I've double-checked everything. There's nothing wrong with you." Tara said kindly.
Buffy could feel tears welling up. If it wasn't something infesting her soul from the visions or the thaumagenesis demon, it was just her, the same Buffy she had always been.
"You must've missed something. Will you check again?" She begged.
Tara was surprised by her friend's reaction. What could be bad enough that she would want to be sick? "Buffy, I-I-I promise. There's nothing wrong with you." She repeated.
"There has to be. This just can't be me. It isn't me. Why do I feel like this? Why do I do those things with Spike?"
"You mean… patrolling with him? Having him work with us?" The witch hadn't realized Spike was involved in this, but the Slayer had been spending a lot of time with him recently. Buffy was silent, and Tara saw guilt in her eyes. Puzzle pieces began to fall into place. Something more than a working relationship was going on between Buffy and the vampire. "Oh." Her voice was low, and she looked around, subconsciously worried someone would overhear the girls sharing such a private secret. "Oh… really." She purposely raised her voice, not wanting to sound judgmental.
"He's everything I hate. He's everything that I'm supposed to be against… but when we're together I feel…" Buffy expected a look of disgust, but all she could see in Tara's face was sympathy. "Don't tell anyone, please."
"I-I won't." Tara promised.
Buffy was too distraught at the thought of being revealed to stop. "Oh the way they would look at me. I just couldn't..."
"I-I won't tell anyone." Tara said more firmly. "I-I wouldn't do that."
"Why can't I stop? Why do I keep letting him in?" Buffy asked helplessly, never having had anyone to admit this to before.
"Do you love him?" Tara asked gently. "I-it's okay if you do. He's done a lot of good, a-and he does love you." Last year when they had all suspected Buffy of sleeping with Spike, she had thought it was crazy. But after seeing him willing to be tortured to protect Dawn, and how devoted he was to Buffy and Dawn's safety and happiness Tara was willing to accept that there was good in him. Her own best friend was a thousand year ex-demon responsible for countless deaths who had managed to reform, so she was willing to give Spike the benefit of the doubt if he was willing to try.
"I…" Being asked point blank set her back for a minute. She had been denying feeling anything for him but lust and gratitude at his understanding and defense of Dawn, but after the way he was with her last night she couldn't pretend there wasn't more. "I-I don't know. I like him sometimes. But, when I try to trust him… I know I can trust him with Dawn, but that's it."
"He really seems like he's trying to change." Tara said. "Like he's trying to be good."
Buffy shook her head, sniffling back tears. "It's not that simple. God, you didn't know him, you didn't know what he was like before the chip. He killed people, he attacked our school, he tried to bite Willow…"
"I know, she told me." Tara said quietly. "But he's not even trying to get rid of the chip anymore." Buffy just sat there and she continued. "I-I just meant that whatever you feel, it's okay. You've been going through a lot this past year, and he kind of gets what you're going through. S-so if you need to…"
"What?" Buffy asked abruptly. "Use him? What's okay about that?"
"If you like him, you're not using him, not really." Tara reasoned trying to comfort her. "I mean, you said you do sometimes…"
Buffy sighed, her tears slowing. "I do. But I'm not ready to tell anyone. Not even him."
"Then take your time. I-if you feel like you're using him and it's upsetting you then maybe… slow it down?" Tara suggested. Buffy nodded. She was touched by Tara's loyalty, even with her slight estrangement from the group. She leaned over to hug her, and after a moment of hesitation Tara hugged her back. They stayed that way for a few minutes until Buffy felt ready to face the night.
Author's Notes: cavemenftw: I agree with you about the guys from the Trio. They'll only be around when they're interacting with a viewpoint character, so we won't even be seeing them again for a while. Jonathan is an okay guy, and I'm pretty sure we're supposed to hate Warren. He's a sociopathic murderer and rapist, and he's the only major Buffy villain I don't find entertaining in any way. Andrew I feel could have been made into a likeable character in Season Seven if it had had more episodes, but that Season had so many subplots a lot of them were left under-developed. He was pretty good in Season Eight, which is more than I can say for some other characters. And Faith just had to have a cameo at some point since she won't be appearing in person for a long time and I was dying to write a scene with her in it. Even when she shows up my main characters will still be Spike and Buffy, followed by Willow, Tara, Xander, Anya and Dawn.
shadow: Faith will show up next Season, one of the many reasons I'm anxious to get to it :D
CailinRua and Redhead023: I'm glad that scene worked for you. It felt a bit cheesy to me, but I thought they could use a happier scene once in a while.
S1r3h: "The day you suss out what do you do want, there'll probably be a parade. Seventy-six bloody trombones."
Thorn Wild: Glad you're still liking it! I'll be sure and check out your stuff when I have the time.
Tahkaullus01: You know, I hated Kennedy too but when I thought about it, I realized the only reason I hated her was that she was coming on to a widow way too strong and too fast. I'm cool with her now, but I never saw what she and Willow had in common beyond liking girls. I know a lot of people hate/dislike her, and when she shows up I'm going to do my damnedest to keep her both true to her original characterization AND likeable. I always say, I love every Buffy character except Warren. Fuck that guy. Technically, they're all next in line the way it went down.
waddiswasawitch: Thank you.

A favorite among locals since opening in Bay St. Louis in 2013, The Blind Tiger has amassed a following of diners seeking quality food and simple, yet unique, cocktails in a casual, waterfront setting.
