On a warm September evening the mutilated body of Katie Dubois, a pretty high school soccer star, turns up, dumped in a Portland scrap yard. Her heart has been neatly and expertly cut from her body. The same day Lucinda Cassidy, a young Portland business-woman and competitive runner, disappears during her morning jog. Soon other bodies turn up. All young, all blond, all athletes. Very quickly McCabe discovers he's on the trail of no ordinary killer.

Murder, however, was not on the menu. When Thom's manager ends up dead on stage, Sadie does what any woman with a history of solving murders does–jumps right in to offer her guidance and expertise. The police, however, are not very appreciative. In fact, they'd rather she just go home. But can Sadie help it if she keeps stumbling over information? Can she help it if the people intricately woven into the deception keep crossing her path? The more she learns, the broader the spectrum becomes and when the police refuse to take her seriously, Sadie has no choice but to sidestep them altogether in the pursuit of justice. With her son Shawn at her side, her reputation on the line, and a full cast of suspicious characters, Sadie Hoffmiller is once again cooking her way through a case that offers far more questions than answers.

The book is set up as a no-excuses approach; if you say you believe in scripture you can't pick and choose when to apply scripture to your life; it's immediate connection which also, helps take immediate action. You may be comfortably motivated but it may bring upheaval and some hard truth to swallow, so be prepared for no-excuses scripture to change your life.

Soldiers are handed antipsychotic drugs and sent into battle. Treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder is stigmatized. Gang members carry their affiliation from the streets to the barracks. And many of our soldiers are forced to face down two separate enemies, one in the same uniform they wear. By the end of the book the reader will learn the devastating truth about the injustice and disrespect our military families are forced to endure when their soldier dies a non-combat death.

He's got a small fragment of a .22 hollow point round buried inside his brain, lodge directly up against his cerebral cortex. The result of a botched suicide attempt four years prior to the novel's start, an operation to remove the bullt frag would be too dangerous. But the bullet causes Moonlight lots of problems, the least of which are the occasional memory loss and his rational ability to tell right from wrong. The bullet frag also might shift at any moment, making coma and/or sudden death, a very real possibility.

Comments about Shimano Dura Ace 7900 Brake Pair:
Any set of Shimano road brakes will stop your bike, and stop it well. But the DuraAce 7900s communicate with you along the way that inspires confidence, and may very well make you faster...
The dual-pivot design of these brakes provide an incredible improvement over the likes of 105 or Ultegra — both already great products. However, DuraAce will allow a precise application of brake power that will allow you to dial in just exactly what you need, when you need it.
in over 27 years of fast recreational and race-training riding, these are easily the best road brakes I've ever ridden.

- Sight is granted in a medium area around the beam while it travels. Although this vision will not go through bushes or across walls, it will reveal all champions within its radius even if they are hiding in a bush or are across a wall.
- There is a known graphical bug in which the beam visual-effect is stuck on the place in which it was originally cast, but the damaging part of the ability performs normally, damaging units in the intended location.
- If Viktor dies while he is firing the beam it will become interrupted and deal damage up to the location where it was in the moment Viktor died.
- The augmented damage over time is unaffected by this if it has already been applied.
- Relative to basic The Hex Core - Statistical Efficiency
- 45 ability power = 978.75g
- Augment: Death's passive must be worth 21.25g for it to be gold efficient.
Ability Details
Chaos Storm is a ground targeted area of effect ability that damages and silences. It then becomes a controllable entity that deals area of effect damage.
- Applies spell effects as an area of effect ability.
- Spell vamp is reduced to one-third effectiveness.
- Rylai's Crystal Scepter will apply a 15% slow.
- Magic damage will be mitigated by Black Shield and Lifeline.
- Spell shields will block the activation of the ability or an individual lightning bolt.
Additional Information:
- Chaos Storm can be controlled by Alt + Right-Click or by pressing the R button (default hotkeys). It can be commanded to move toward locations or enemy champions (it will continue to follow the chosen enemy champion unless commanded otherwise).
- If Viktor is affected by hard-CC he cannot issue new commands to the storm.
- If the champion the storm is currently following enters stealth, the storm will continue to follow them, effectively giving away their position.
- The storm grants sight around its position for the full duration.
- Including the initial damage, Chaos Storm deals 8 instance of damage.
- Rylai's Crystal Scepter will apply a 15% slow on each instance of damage dealt.
- Chaos Storm remains active and continues to deal damage if Viktor dies before the storm ends.
- When Viktor dies, the storm immediately stops moving and cannot be subsequently redirected.
- Probable Bug: If Chaos Storm is summoned in a brush where the enemy has no vision, it will remain invisible to the enemy team for its duration even if it is redirected out of the bush. This may be a bug.
- Aside from when the bug occurs, the Chaos Storm will be visible to enemies for its duration even if it enters a brush or the fog of war.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Resplendent in its new shiny gold label, Krug is a majestic Champagne. Its velvet texture, dominated by mature flavors, is toasty and rich, dense and complex. In the mouth, its beautiful roasted almond, spice and ripe pears all balance impressively. Could the wine be getting even better? No..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Krug decided to create a vintage for this particular year and named it "Vivacité Solaire" (Vivacious Radiance) to relate an unexpected story of a hot year that surprised Krug with fruit, freshness, balance, expressiveness, vivacity and finesse, all at the same time.
At first sight,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Tightly knit, this is finely textured and expressive. Savory hints of fennel seed and cardamom accent dried apricot, bread dough, hazelnut, creamy espresso and grapefruit zest notes, remaining racy and focused through to the lasting, lightly briny finish. Drink now through 2027."

Let's face it though, subjectivity is the reason why we feel such a strong emotional connection to figure skating and the skaters themselves. Making a subjectively-leaning sport more objective is a balancing act. If you have make a move towards too much objectivity, it will lose its original soul and become something totally different. That may be a good thing, but it might not be. Gymnastics is still going through rough times and are constantly changing the rules and scoring system to make it more appealing and aesthetically-pleasing like its golden era. However, there's always something unsatisfying or incomplete about the "improvements."
Denis and his coach seem quite happy with the silver medal.
The folks who mounted a protest of the men's results, however futile, had the right to make their voices heard. To believe otherwise is, dare I say, irrational and refutable.
One thing I think gymnastics does well that I think figure skating sort of falters on is that the ISU can or have changed the rules mid-Olympic cycle whereas the FIG (gymnastics international federation) doesn't implement any major changes to the way they score elements or create deductions on technique and execution until after the Olympics. I think if the ISU wants to fix technique problems or create scoring changes to promote a certain "look" or "philosophy" they should do it after the nearest Olympics but make it known early on that they are planning these changes. That way skaters who were brought up one system where certain things were overlooked (like flutzing or over rotations) before an Olympic cycle don't become a problem for a skater mid-cycle. However, by letting it be known that they are implementing these changes to improve skating, the younger generations or even veterans can know early on what things they need to work on to better prepare themselves for the next cycle.
However, that does sort of create a mentality that the Olympics are the be-all to end-all, and I've always argued that Worlds (though maybe not as lucrative or prestigious as an Olympics) are an incredibly important competition that decides who is the best skater that season (akin to a NBA championship or even Super Bowl). Thus, theoretically, why couldn't the ISU make a change whenever they want to since Worlds happens every year?

The Innova Star Gator golf disc is a mid range driver that is overstable. Even in windy conditions, the Gator delivers pin-point accuracy for shorter drives and approach shots. This is a great golf disc for mid range shots especially for players who need to control their power and increase their accuracy. It is very reliable and has a predictable finish.
It is a great choice for power players, breezy days, sidearm shots, spike approaches, and medium range headwind drives.

"The Gator the Firebird of mid range discs. I like it because it is slow, overstable, and easy to control. Perfect for upshots in the wind." - Ricky Wysocki
"A very reliable, stable midrange. I use the Gator for short hyzer shots in the wind. Also, on down hill holes where I don't want a lot of carry. I also use it for upshots when it's extremely windy." - Micah Dorius

Your local library may have revolving displays of period museum collections or perhaps paintings hanging on the walls of their public gallery, but they probably don't have this.
Chris Demarest is the painter who created about 30 paintings of World War II servicemen and women that are on display at the Patrick Heath Public Library in Boerne. You may still be asking: what's so different about that?

Artist Chris Sauter wants you to question the notions of religion and science, and how they interact -- or don't interact.

So Sauter creates art to get you to think about how they have a certain overlap. Soon, he will have four themed exhibitions in four separate locations.
"The Southwest School exhibition is the first," he said. "It opens on November 21."

Further Prediction: If B takes place, Gobwin Knob loses Sizemore.

Ok, that second one is blindingly obvious. But I think the first one is reasonably clever. If nothing else, think of this: How likely is Parson to make a plan that relies on His Toolship doing what Parson wants? Especially since time is a factor. No, I think he's going to demonstrate why it is that "fight fire with fire" applies to, you know, fighting fires. Though he won't use fire, either.
I swear, if I end up being wrong, I'll stop being cryptic and tell you all what my wrongness was.

Notice that this picture was retconjured on January 11, 2013? Anyone have the original so we can see what got edited? You know if he changed it, it's going to factor into the conclusion of this event.
I get the feeling that this moment is going to be the big reveal for book 2, like uncroaking the volcano. I just can't think of what it is.

The Colonel wrote:I lost track of what turn is it.
Our first Turn after the Battle of Dis City is Turn 10, if I'm not mistaken. We're about to progress the game up to Turn 13.
The current plan is to embark on Turn 13, reaching Logan's Run on Turn 17. You need to keep the Uncroaked from Dis City intact for that long.
Also, take note that the rules of Croakamancy have changed such that you can't change the build of a unit when you raise it.
I suggest that you start on the Archers, getting as many of them Skeletal as possible. If any of the Elves which croaked in the battle had Bodyguard, you should Uncroak a couple of them so that we don't have to assign as much of our dwindling supply of Brickbats to Bill.

Harris Back In N.C. To Lead Seahawks
Courtesy: UNCW Athletic Communications
Release: 05/03/2012
WILMINGTON, North Carolina - Former Wake Forest standout and current Tusculum College head coach Adell Harris has been named the 10th coach in UNCW's women's basketball history.
A native of High Point who played at Wake and coached at UNC Asheville, Harris returns to her home state after being formally introduced during a press conference Thursday in the Golden Hawk Room of the William P. Nixon, Jr., Annex.
Harris, 31, takes over the Seahawk program after a successful three-year stint as head coach of the Pioneers, guiding the NCAA Division II school to a 61-30 overall record, back-to-back Food Lion South Atlantic Conference Tournament championships (2010 & 2011) and three straight appearances to the NCAA Tournament.
" We're delighted to have Adell join the Seahawk family," said Jimmy Bass, UNCW's athletic director. "She has an excellent basketball pedigree as a coach and player. Her record speaks for itself. Adell's been a winner everywhere she's been and we expect that trend to continue."
Last season, Harris guided the Pioneers to a 17-11 overall mark as they posted victories over defending DII national champion and top-ranked Clayton State and 2012 NCAA Champion Shaw en route to the school's fifth straight NCAA Southeast Regional berth.
Tusculum opened the 2010-11 season ranked third in the USA Today/ESPN Division II Top 25 Coaches Poll and finished the season with a 21-9 record as it captured the SAC regular season crown and repeated as league tournament champions.
In her inaugural season with the Pioneers in 2009-10, Harris guided Tusculum to its first-ever appearance in the NCAA Division II Elite Eight after capturing the program's first Southeast Region Championship. She also led the team to its inaugural post-season ranking, capping the campaign as the ninth-ranked team in the final USA Today/ESPN Top 25 Coaches Poll.
Harris has been instrumental in the development of some of the top players in Tusculum history. Guard Jasmine Gunn was named the program's first consensus Division II All-American, Daktronics Southeast Region Player-of-the-Year and SAC Player-of-the-Year after ranking among the top-10 players in the nation in scoring (21.6) during her junior season. Gunn repeated as SAC Player-of-the-Year the following season to finish her career second in school history and third in league history with 2,180 points.
Guard Kendal Baxter set a school and league record with 105 three-pointers during her freshman season on her way to earning SAC All-Rookie Team accolades. Center Catherine Hintz earned MVP honors at the 2011 Food Lion SAC Tournament and was selected to the All-Tournament Team at the 2010 NCAA Southeast Regional.
Prior to taking over the reins of the Tusculum program, Harris spent six seasons at UNCA (2003-09), serving as an assistant and associate head coach with the program. She helped the Bulldogs capture their first Big South Tournament title and NCAA Tournament appearance in 2006-07 and mentored nine All-Big South Conference honorees, including a pair of BSC Rookie-of-the-Year honorees in Brittany Hendley (2004) and Kyla Jones (2007).
Harris was a four-year letterwinner at Wake, playing in 106 games during her career with the Demon Deacons from 1998-2002. She paced Coach Charlene Curtis' squad with 108 assists and averaged 4.6 points per game during her senior season while serving as team co-captain. Harris, who finished her career in 10th place on the Demon Deacons career assists chart, graduated from Wake in 2002 with a Bachelor's Degree in Sociology.
A member of the Women's Basketball Coaches Association, Harris began her coaching career as an assistant coach at her alma mater, T. Wingate Andrews High School, during the 2002-03 campaign. She also served as head coach of the Piedmont X-Press AAU team from 1998-2003.

Natural Capitalism
Posted by Bruce Robinson in waste , speaker , Sonoma County , solar , Santa Rosa , resources , policy , Napa , Marin , jobs , Ideas , Green , environment , economy , current events , climate change , California , business , alternative energy
Capitalism doesn't have to be an economic system that devours raw materials with massive waste. An advocate of a variant termed "Natural Capitalism" contends it can deliver greater prosperity through increased efficiency and careful stewardship of natural and human resources.
Lovins argues that human productivity could learn a lot from Nature, which is powered almost exclusively by the sun, and leaves no waste that isn't fuel for some other natural process.
Modern day free marketers often invoke Adam Smith and his "invisible hand" as the guiding principle behind the policies they advocate, including globalism and free trade. But Lovins counters that doing so is a distorted misreading of what Smith actually said.
Reducing or greatly eliminating the enormous amount of waste that is built into our economy is not enough, but itself, to ensure long-term prosperity. But Lovins says it would be a good start.
Hunter Lovins will be among the speakers at the Solar Energy and Efficiency Fair in Santa Rosa's Finley Park June 19,from 11am to 5pm. You can get more detailed event information here.
