Did you find someone? I'm not from Reading, but I know people from that area and could ask for you. I hope you were able to find some good assistance....

Flyleafs Lead Vocalist Lacey Strum Leaves The Band [VIDEOS] [POLL]
I am very sad to announce that Flyleafs lead vocalist Lacey Strum will be leaving the band. Some of what she had to say about her departure from the band was she is very thankful to have played with her four band members who she considered as flesh and blood.

2-color LED indicators that provide at-a-glance status indication at the guard door for quick adjustments, as necessary. An auxiliary contact also allows for remote status identification. The D40A switch can be mounted to accept the actuator on the left or right side without having to change the location of the cable. The D40A controller may be used to monitor D40A non-contact switches and tongue- or key-actuated switches, and it is said to reduce costs by allowing as many as 30 switches to connect to a single controller.

Google App Engine sort of getting Perl support
Google programmers are adding support for the Perl programming language to its App Engine service for hosting Web applications, but so far it's not really an official project.
The work is the project of Google employee Brad Fitzpatrick, who disclosed the project on his blog Tuesday. But he's not a member of the App Engine team, and Google isn't promising Perl support, he said. By going public with the project, he hopes to intercept other Perl fans' work in the area.

The Big Ten is on the verge of losing one of its most successful head coaches.
As first reported by Pat Forde of Yahoo! Sports, Bret Bielema will leave Wisconsin to take over at Arkansas.
Bret BielemaUS PRESSWIREBret Bielema is leaving Wisconsin for Arkansas.
The Badgers head coach, who led his team to a Rose Bowl berth for the third straight year, was never mentioned in numerous reports, both local and national, as a possible replacement for John L. Smith with the Razorbacks. Certainly, Hogs athletic director Jeff Long did a wonderful job of keeping Bielema's name under wraps during this search, although it is unknown how high Bielema was on Long's list of initial candidates.
While the news comes out of left field, Bielema could be a good fit with the Hogs because he's used to working harder than most of his fellow Big Ten coaches on the recruiting trail. He will need to be at his best in the rugged SEC, especially with a program that lacks some of the built-in luxuries that other SEC schools possess.
An announcement will reportedly come today, but Bielema is not expected to be introduced as new Hogs head coach until Wednesday.
(Excerpt) Read more at sports.yahoo.com ...
One teams loss is another teams gain. I hope he does well here in Arkansas even if he is named after a eating disorder. I'm going to give him a chance.
Never trust anyone with a Hawkeye tattoo
Good luck with that.
Bret came up under Iowa Coach Hayden Fry.
I think his new job is less than a lateral move.
I hope he does also, even though I'm not a 'hog' fan. Wonder what the amount of money and time the contract entailed. It had to have been BIG.
Will never forget him mouthing off to our Iowa State coach after we lost to them.
He was a player for the Hawks; and unleashed a profanity laced tirade against the opposing coach. Low class.
-SEC FOOTBALL, BABY! You want to be the best, you have to play the best. Instead of Purdon't, Iowa, Meatchicken, and the Luckeyes every year, they have to play perennial powerhouses like Alabama, LSU, Georgia, The Mississippi State University, Texas A&M, Auburn, et.al.
-$$$$$$! Arkansas can more than match anything Wisconsin can pay.
-The biggest game in Wisconsin is the Green Bay Packers. As long as he's in Wisconsin, he'll always be second-fiddle. In Arkansas, the biggest game (after marrying your cousin) is Arkansas Razorback football. He'll be more popular than the Governor if he beats Alabama. Razorback-nation is psycho, but they'll be YOUR psychos.
5 million versus 2.5 million. I've heard that there were some who weren't UNhappy to see him depart. He's a good recruiter and with the lower academic standards of the SEC, he should be very successful.
Boosters were sick of him. Successful but not universally popular in Madison.
Boosters were sick of him. Successful but not universally popular in Madison.
Thanks for that clip. The only thing more pathetic would be . . . me I guess.
I was just thinking the same thing. Bret played at Wisconsin. Unless a huge raise was involved why would he leave? I'm certain it was due to all the Blue State revolutionary anarchy that took place in Madison over the last two years.
Dane County, WI went 71% for Obama compared to only 40% for the Marxist in Washington County, AR. It's quite a move up; he'll be around a lot better class of people.
other than slightly warmer weather...why the hell would anyone leave Wisconsin for Arkansas??????????????
Expect Charlie Strong to follow suit and become the next coach at Tennessee.
Strong is under contract at Louisville through June of 2018.
Arkansas is a substantial upgrade in terms of quality of life.
Mississippi State - powerhouse????
I'm so glad I didn't have a drink in my hand when I read that......
I know...I left Wisconsin for Indiana and civilization
A buddy in Wisconsin mentioned the deal was worth $2 million more than they were willing to pay in Madison.
Alvarez is pulling the strings. Barry will find a quality coach.
This thing called filthy lucre. And a lot more of it.

A Brief History of Trailblazer DistrictPrevious to July 1, 1972, Golden Empire Council had a larger district, called Solano District, which covered Fairfield, Travis Air Force Base and all of what is presently Trailblazer District. The Council decided it would be more effective to have smaller districts. So, effective 1 July, 1972, Solano District was split into two districts. The new Solano District was Fairfield and Travis Air Force Base. Several years later, that new Solano District was moved into the Mt. Diablo-Silverado Council in a council consolidation. Our district was called the Vacaville-Dixon District. The first District Chairman was Walt Graham and the first District Commissioner was Dave Fleming. Dave became the second District Chairman on July 1, 1973 and served as chairman until Dec 31, 1976. During this two and half years, the district got tired of being called the Vacaville-Dixon District and had a contest to pick a new name, and later to design a patch. The contests were held and the result was Trailblazer District, with our current patch. Contributed by David Fleming |

METALLICA is participating in a publicity campaign aimed at catching a man wanted in the death of a Virginia Tech student who disappeared after one of their concerts.
The FBI and Virginia State Police announced the multi-media campaign Wednesday, which includes a public service announcement recorded by Metallica lead singer James Hetfield (see below).
Morgan Harrington went missing after an October 2009 Metallica concert in Charlottesville, Va. Her remains were found in January 2010 in a hayfield. The FBI says the suspect has been forensically linked to a 2005 sexual assault in Fairfax County, and the FBI last week revised its composite sketch of the man.

Open-Source AMD UVD Now Works For RadeonSI
Published on 30 January 2014 05:57 PM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
24 Comments
The open-source AMD Radeon Linux graphics driver should now properly handle using the Unified Video Decoder (UVD) with RadeonSI (HD 7000 series and newer hardware) if using the very latest code.
It turns out a bug was preventing UVD from being properly used with the RadeonSI driver. Christian König at AMD finally was able to figure out the bug today and explained, "Sorry that it took me so long to find this. It's a rather simple issue that the IRQ support for UVD on SI wasn't activated. With this patch in place I now get 52fps with 1080p H264 decoding."
This new patch that came up today will show up for the Linux 3.14 kernel and should also be back-ported to the stable kernel releases given it's a bug-fix. It's also recommended to be running the very latest Mesa driver code whenever dealing with the open-source RadeonSI driver for AMD's GCN graphics hardware.
More details on the RadeonSI UVD issue that was solved today is documented via

Atlanta has some alcohol dispensing gas stations but not nearly as many as we should. Using alcohol instead of gasoline will help tremendously with metro Atlanta's air quality and lessen the impact that air pollution has on our health!
David Blume is a firm believer in the virtues of using alcohol to solve global energy problems. His very worthy website alcoholcanbeagas.com educates us on the fact that sustainable, clean-burning and efficient ethanol alcohol can virtually replace all forms of energy that are more harmful than beneficial such as petroleum based products, nuclear energy, and kerosene. In fact you can even produce electricity cost-effectively by using alcohol!
Blume challenges people to "put a gallon of alcohol in your tank." He says you can safely use at least 50 percent of alcohol in your gas tank without any problems. You end up with more horsepower, even if you get a little lower mileage but alcohol is cheaper than gas, so it shouldn't really matter.
Blume advises that alcohol is kinder to your fuel tank as you won't have carbon build up in your engine, which is what cuts the life and performance of your car.
Alcohol is much safer than using kerosene which can be polluting and harmful to breath, causing health problems in unventilated areas where cooking takes place.
Many people have to walk for miles to find wood as well as deforestation taking place for fueling purposes – alcohol can efficiently replace wood as a fuel source.
One can produce alcohol for less than $1 a gallon, using a wide variety of plants and waste products including algae to stale donuts, says Blume.
In places like Brazil, alcohol is offered at fuel pumps alongside gasoline and with the alcohol being cheaper, people are probably reaching for the latter!
How about it Atlanta, let's feature more alcohol at our gas pumps and phase out gasoline altogether…

Taxes and Corporate Capital Structure in an Incomplete Market
This paper extends Merton Miller's 1977 analysis of corporate capital structure decisions to the incomplete capital markets case. As in Miller's model, aggregate demand for corporate leverage is curtailed as interest rates on taxable bonds rise. Unlike Miller's model, however, capital structure is not a matter of indifference to all equilibrium shareholders. Market incompleteness and tax arbitrage restrictions combine to prevent marginal rates of substitution from being equalized for all investors and hence their preferences are not unanimous. In addition, costs associated with debt induce a tendency for lower cost firms to issue a larger proportion of total corporate debt.Download Info

Author(s): | Elaine B. Barker; |
Title: | Digital Signature Standard (DSS) |
Published: | June 25, 2009 |
Abstract: | The Standard specifies a suite of algorithms that can be used to generate a digital signature. Digital signatures are used to detect unauthorized modifications to data and to authenticate the identity of the signatory. In addition, the recipient of signed data can use a digital signature as evidence in demonstrating to a third party that the signature was, in fact, generated by the claimed signatory. This is known as non-repudiation, since the signatory cannot easily repudiate the signature at a later time. This Standard specifies three techniques for the generation and verification of digital signatures: DSA, ECDSA and RSA. This revision increases the length of the keys allowed for DSA, provides additional requirements for the use of ECDSA and RSA, and includes requirements for obtaining assurances necessary for valid digital signatures. |

text: Calcium D- Glucarate is a natural substance that promotes hormonal balance by supporting proper hormone metabolism and natural detoxification in the body. Calcium D- Glucarate comes in a sustained-release formula that facilitates the detoxification process by inhibiting the re-absorption of estrogen-like toxins into the bloodstream, allowing them to leave the body via excretion in the feces. As a dietary supplement Calcium D-Glucarate acts as an antioxidant to promote overall health and enhance the bodies' immune system. In animals, Calcium D-Glucarate has been found to lower unhealthy estrogen levels and thereby inhibit the development or progression of cancer. Calcium Glucarate is found in the body's cells and tissues and is the subject of exciting worldwide studies and research. It has been recommended by the AMC Cancer Research Center. Ingredients: Calcium D-Glucarate, Gelatin (capsule), Cellulose, Water, Magnesium Stearate. Usage: As a dietary supplement, adults take 1 to 2 capsules daily or as directed by your healthcare professional. Dr. Randolph recommends taking 1000 mg of Calcium D-Glucarate twice daily.

The main problem I see with Microsoft is when they own the market with the best product, they waste time reinventing it. Why does Word need to have a new interface when its strong point is everyone knows how to use it? Same for excel. Add features, don't change everything and make my 10 years of experience using the tool get tossed in the toilet. Keep the old systems working and farm them, then build entirely new product and attract new users and build up product.
FOR some time, Steve Ballmer, Microsoft's chief executive, has been saying that the software giant needs to think of itself as a "devices and services" company. On July 11th he set out in an e-mail to staff and a lengthy memo, both published on the company's website, what this means for Microsoft's internal organisation. Its businesses have been regrouped and just about all its senior managers reshuffled. Quite what it might mean for shareholders and for the eventual succession to Mr Ballmer is, however, not yet evident.
Hitherto Microsoft has had five largely separate divisions. The Windows division houses the operating system in most of the world's PCs and these days a few of its smartphones and tablets too (and accounted for about 25% of revenue in the first nine months of this financial year). Alongside this are the server and tools division (also about 25%); online services (4%), business (30%) and entertainment and devices, including the Xbox games console (14%).
Mr Ballmer seems to have decided that this system has lacked co-ordination. "We are rallying behind a single strategy as one company," he wrote to his staff, "not a collection of divisional strategies." That is what Microsoft has had until now. The Windows division, for example, was notorious for ploughing its own furrow—one reason, some think, for the departure of Steven Sinofsky, its head, late last year. The structure has not served Microsoft well as the world has moved from desktop and laptop personal computers, where the company made its money, into mobile devices, where it has struggled, and the cloud. Some technologies, such as operating systems and cloud infrastructure, have been spread across divisions. "We will see our product line holistically," Mr Ballmer wrote, "not as a set of islands."
So the new arrangement has a more horizontal look, with four "engineering groups" organised on functional lines. All the operating systems, whether for PCs, mobile devices or the cloud, will be in one group. Devices will be in another. A third, applications, covers core technologies in search (ie, the Bing search engine) and productivity (Office and so forth). And the cloud group will look after data centres, databases and the needs of big companies.
No one knows whether the realigned Microsoft will be a nimbler Microsoft until results start to flow. (The company is due to report fourth-quarter figures, presumably on the old lines, on July 18th.) Investors will want to be able, as far as they can, to compare the old and the new—for instance, on the so far disappointing uptake of Windows 8, the newish operating system for PCs, tablets and smartphones. They may like a little more clarity on something else, too: who might succeed Mr Ballmer, especially if the reorganisation is a flop. On that, despite all the moves among Microsoft's top brass (and a couple of prominent departures) no one is any the wiser.

Actor and comedian Martin Short retells the story of mistaking the president's closest political adviser, David Axelrod, for actor Richard Kind:
"I went up to Richard Kind--the brilliant Richard Kind, hilarious--and I had seen him before and we'd given each other hugs and we'd talked," Short says to host Kelly Ripa on LIVE! With Kelly. "But then at the after party, which was at the French Embassy ... very fancy, I go up to Richard Kind, and I see him talking to George Clooney and all those people. And I go up behind Richard Kind, and I go, 'Richard, papa's gained a little weight.' And [he] turns around and it's not Richard Kind ... it's David Axelrod."
Short continues: "And I'd never met him, and there's nothing else you can see because you've already called him fat. But he was very, very nice considering..."

The Salt Pot Liquor: A Southern Tip To Save Nutritious Broth From Greens August 7, 2013 Boiling up a pot of kale or collard greens can be tasty, but it also strips out a lot of the vitamins that make these vegetables so nutritious.

Why the headlines on voter ID story that ran on 1A? Is there any system that is not fallible?
If you were interested in truth, you would do a news story on how easily our new computerized voting machines can be scammed. There is a ton of information on this problem.
Why not do a piece on the (video of a man) who simply got the names of deceased voters in New Hampshire and went in to request a ballot. He was in his late 30s or early 40s, and these folks were for the most part well past their 70s. The poll workers had birth dates or ages, and he offered identification and was turned down. Not just one time. This was done at many districts, and he was never questioned.
I guess this shows how ideology can destroy sane and rational thinking, doesn't it? A mind that has an agenda-driven political thought process wastes a good mind.

Adrian heard the music before he was even awake. The obnoxiously joyful tune the fiddle played coerced him into a dream. He was with a large group of people around a bonfire. Danielle was with him. The firelight danced off of her face and her eyes held a happiness that he had never seen before. She took his hand and tried to pull him from his perch on a log, and he playfully made her drag him into the fray of dancing people. He swung her in circles, danced the chaotically choreographed steps from a dance created long before she was born. But he didn't care. None of it made sense but he didn't care. The look of joy on her face as she danced in the firelight made everything alright. He lifted her by her waist, swung her around, and dropped her to her feet just to do it all over again. He was laughing. He had never laughed like that. Ever. With one of the great swings he gathered her up in his arms and kissed her for all he was worth. Her kiss was just as passionate as his and she looked into his eyes with her own beautiful brown flashing gold.
He realized suddenly that there was no movement around them and glanced up at the rest of those who had been in the circle. He felt the chill run up his spine as he realized they were all standing motionless, staring at the two of them. Wait.. no.. they were staring at Danielle. He realized a moment too late that their eyes had all expanded to black and it was then that he felt hands, dozens of steel-like hands grabbing him from behind. The next moment a half dozen of the spectators descended upon Danielle and wrenched her from him. She screamed. The joyful expression on her face was replaced with complete terror and he roared her name, trying to fight off the grasp of those holding him back. They were dragging her away from him, away from the fire, into the darkness. She screamed his name back as the first of them latched onto her shoulder, the blood dripping down her arm and staining the ground. He screamed his rage as he fought, watching them drag her away, till he couldn't see her anymore. Till he knew she was gone. He heard a wolf howl in the distance..
The music never stopped.
He opened his eyes to her face. She was sleeping deeply, a small smile curving her lips. Her hand was lightly wrapped around his arm as if, even though she had pulled out of his arms during the night, she just wanted to keep some kind of contact with him. The relief that flooded his chest was mind numbing. She was fine. She was still there in bed with him and she was fine. He drew in a deep breath to calm himself. Though he was motionless, he felt the panic that had overwhelmed him in his dream dancing just under his skin like electricity. With that breath he caught her scent and closed his eyes, pulling her hand closer so he could place a soft kiss on her skin, breathing her in even deeper.
He didn't understand what was happening to him.
He didn't care.
The music was still playing outside the window.
He released her hand and slid silently from the bed to look out to the street below her bedroom window. He growled softly to himself. Outside and across the street there was a man playing a joyful dancing tune on his fiddle as a small crowd gathered around him. The people all had smiles on their faces and a few of them were dancing. He saw those that were walking down the street toward their unknown destinations make a detour and come closer, eventually joining the crowd as if it were a completely natural thing to do. Some were in business suits, obviously having somewhere important to be. Later they would wonder how it was that they missed their important meeting just to sit and listen to a street musician. The younger ones would be appalled by themselves that they missed class. Adrian would even bet that there were a few professors in there as well, their students sitting in an empty classroom and wondering how much more time they should allot their absent professors before it was acceptable to leave. He sighed. He'd seen it all before.
The musician was smiling at his crowd. His shoulder length copper hair was loose around his sunglass clad face and he held a joyful expression as if he lived for only making people happy with his music. He had no tip can, no hat on the ground, no empty fiddle case to fill. He played for the joy of playing, and for the joy of owning his audience. Literally. They would follow him straight off a cliff if he dared make the dive himself and continue playing all the way down. It had happened before.
Adrian felt a rage boil up into his chest. This wasn't acceptable. There was no way he would let anyone near Danielle. No one who may even be tempted to use her. No matter how unlikely. He moved away from the window and found his clothes. He watched Danielle as he slipped them on soundlessly. A wasted effort. She'd probably sleep through anything right now. That was one thing about her kind. They definitely needed their rest. He leaned forward and placed a kiss on her forehead. He smiled at her, then shook himself out of it. What was she doing to him? He'd known her less than two days.. but he'd kill for her. He wondered if he'd die for her. Then he stopped. That wasn't a thought he was prepared to entertain right now. But he'd kill for her. Yes. And maybe he'd start with the fiddle player on the street.
Adrian left the apartment building and made his way to the sidewalk, the only thing separating himself from the crowd was the black pavement of the street. The fiddler was watching him and smiled at his approach. He ended the song on the second verse, even though there were five more to go, and abruptly bowed.
"That's the end of the show, folks! I'm sure you all have places to be!" He spoke in a charming Irish accent, an accent that Adrian knew he had dropped 30 or so years ago. Guess old habits die hard. Like playing to a crowd.
At his statement the crowd groaned. Then several people cursed at once, having realized what time it was. Moments later most of the people were gone, having dashed off in one direction or the other trying to get to where ever it was they were supposed to be. It took a few more moments for the rest of the crowd to disperse, some of them shaking their heads as if they wondered how they had gotten there in the first place. Eventually, only the fiddler stood there, standing tall and still, watching Adrian intently.
"What are you doing here, Charlie?" Adrian supposed he could at least let the vampire explain himself, though every instinct was screaming at him to protect Danielle and that he didn't know if his old friend could be trusted.
Charlie just smiled. "You really thought you could just drop a bombshell like that on me and not expect me to come see what the hell is going on over here? You, my friend, would stir up a storm if left to your own devices. So tell me, Jack... or should I just drop that lie all together and call you Adrian? Tell me, what is it about this girl?"
"It's Adrian. And I have a feeling you may already know. Curiosity killed the cat, Charlie."
"Ah, yes. But satisfaction brought it back." Charlie tucked the fiddle and bow under his arm and strode across the street as if he had nothing to fear from the other vampire. He even continued to smile. That's something Adrian always liked about this man. His confidence overshadowed all else and most of the time he didn't even realize he was in danger till after the fact. "So, I didn't tell them anything. Figured I'd let them stew a little bit. Didn't really want to deal with the chaos that would surround me announcing that you're back on the radar as you foolishly suggested. But I did a little digging. Came to the correct conclusion by the smell on you. So, Adrian Malice has found a Wolf to run with again, 'eh? Seems to be your calling; big bad Wolf advocate." He shook his head and chuckled. "You're making some dangerous choices here, my friend. Is she worth it?"
Adrian stayed silent. He knew commenting wasn't really necessary. Charlie just liked the sound of his own voice.
"Hm.. I guess she'd have to be," Charlie continued, cocking his head to the side as he studied Adrian. "Can I meet her?"
Adrian didn't know whether to laugh or rip his friend's head from his shoulders. He balanced it out by glaring. "Absolutely not."
"Why? What do you think I'm gonna do? Steal her from you? At this point I believe it's quite impossible."
"What are you talking about?" Adrian snapped.
"I have a theory about you, Adrian. One that I came up with long before I even knew that my good ol' buddy Jackson and you were one in the same. I think I know why you don't die. I think I know why your zest for life never fades and why you grow stronger as you age while others simply grow complacent and bored. I know you've wondered about it. Probably for centuries. You're probably frightened out of your mind that some day that need to finally end this repetitive existence is going to punch you in the face. Let me put your fears to rest. That may never happen. At least it wouldn't have until now."
"You think you know everything, don't you Charlie?"
"No, I don't know everything, I just know everything I've ever learned. And I come up with theories that are always right." He shrugged, smirking. "It's not my fault. I'm just that good."
"Right. And did you come up with the theory that, despite my earlier warnings, you would be able to just come up here and play a little tune out in the street below the window of the one person I've placed under my protection? And nothing would happen to you?"
Charlie nodded. "That's right."
Adrian stood there nearly gaping at him. The absurdity of this vampire's actions was slightly unsettling. "What's to stop me from tearing you apart, Charlie?"
Charlie folded his arms, then glanced up, nodding towards the apartment building. Adrian turned to find Danielle standing at the screenless open window, leaning out of it slightly and watching the two of them intently. Her eyebrows raised as he met her eyes and he sighed. She was bed ragged and her hair was tangled and she wore a dark satin robe. She was beautiful. As he took in the sight of her, a small smile spread across her soft lips and she stared right back at him. Once again the thought entered his mind Should have killed her when I had the chance.. With that, he knew he was lost. One simple look and everything he had ever known seemed to not matter anymore. He hated it. He couldn't help it. God, it sucked.
Danielle's eyes flickered back to Charlie and it was like the line of gravity that connected him to her was severed. He steadied himself as a physical shudder ran down his back. He took a deep breath, then felt a soft pat on his back but couldn't muster the energy to be phased by it.
"Oh yes, I'm definitely right about this one." Charlie spoke softly. "And I'm kind of sorry about that. Because, you see, since she's not a full Wolf, she doesn't feel that bond that you feel right now my friend. At least not as deeply. And as long as she remains mostly human, she never will. But you, Adrian, the vampire in you is just enough of a beast to make that part of you completely active. The Wolf within you, which has been in you since your human birth, has found its mate. You've made it your purpose to protect her and to make sure she's never turned. If you achieve your goal, you will be forced to watch her grow old and die. And that is when you will finally wish to die. And so you will."
Adrian turned a startled face to his old friend as the words sunk in and opened his mouth to deny it. Nothing came out. He felt something within him clench as everything Charlie said made such perfect sense. Then he looked up at the beautiful young woman in the window and knew that it was true. This woman, with her soft brown eyes and frail bones and flesh, would be the death of him.
"That's why you were always so comfortable with their kind. Because once, before you were turned, you had the potential to be one of them. It's something that had never been attempted before, and I still can't piece together how it happened to you." All the mirth had left his voice as he explained to Adrian his own existence. Then, he sighed, as if he had made his final decision. "And that's why I'm here. Because you need me to keep your head on straight, Adrian. You're not going to be able to do this alone. And it won't hurt to have a friend."
Adrian simply nodded, unable to tear his gaze away from Danielle.
"Good. That's settled then." Charlie concluded with a brisk nod. "Danielle!" he called up to her. "Shall we go get you some breakfast, my dear? And maybe Adrian won't be so rude as to continue to not make proper introductions."
* * *
Lucian's rage turned the edges of his vision dark as he watched his Wolf gazing down from her window at the other vampire. Lucian wasn't sure who he was but when he was through with him there wouldn't be anything left for her to admire. Lucian saw Charles there as well. Everyone knew Charles. He was probably one of the more famous of their kind with his special skills and abilities, but why was he here? Were they going to try to take Danielle for themselves? Did Danielle even realize that she was dealing with vampires? Wait, of course she did. She had sensed him immediately when he had first seen her those two long years ago. He grumbled his frustration.
Charles called up to Danielle. From his perch on a roof a little ways down the block, he couldn't hear any of the conversation that they had been having before but he now distinctly heard Charles refer to the other vampire as Adrian. He wracked his brain for any vampires he had heard of named Adrian and drew a blank. The only one he could think of was the fabled Adrian Malice, but everyone knew he was dead. He hadn't been seen in years and no one lives that long. At least not anymore. Lucian planned to change that. He knew that, with Danielle by his side, he would never feel the tugg of death shroud him again. More and more often Lucian felt the pull of and ending to this repetitive existence. Danielle was going to save him. He needed a companion, someone that he could keep with him and that he could protect and cherish. Her blood was delectable. She would keep him alive in all ways. He glanced over to the window once again and saw her straighten and brush her hair back from her face. The fabric of the robe she wore clung to her taught body and the line of her neck was straight and strong and begged to be taken. He had a flash of her under him against the bed, squirming as he slid his fangs into her skin. She was more beautiful than he had remembered. Once he gave her the injection she would finally come fully into herself and be a gorgeous creature. As soon as he got rid of the other two, she would be his.
* * *
Danielle sat heavily on her bed and waited for Adrian to come back to the bedroom. She was still tying to quelch the crazy panic that she had felt when she had awakened. She woke with a thundering heart and a horrible sense that something was missing. The thought kept running through her head, He's gone, he's gone, we must find him! Over and over again. It was that pleading that had awoken her.
She groaned and shook her head as if trying to forget the craziness that was in her mind, then buried her face in her hands. It was getting worse. It seemed that now that she knew what she was, knew that there was something more inside of her, the beast that was in the back of her mind was growing, changing, becoming more than just a personality quirk. She knew that at the rate she was going, if she didn't get this under control fast she was going to end up in an institution somewhere. It would drive her mad. There was simply no doubt about it. She felt complete hopelessness over the situation. There was nothing she could do about it. It was too late. This wasn't something she could roll back uphill and pretend it never happened. She grit her teeth. She would sure as hell try.
She looked up to see Adrian standing in the door way watching her carefully with a frown. And just like that, her panic evaporated. She had flung herself into his arms before she realized what she was doing, knowing that it wasn't completely her doing. She took a deep breath, inhaling her scent as his fingers ran gently through her hair and she felt him lay a kiss on the top of her head.
"What's wrong?" he whispered gently.
She just shook her head. They had enough problems without her bringing up her mental hell right now. There would be plenty of time to deal with it later, when the immediate threat was over. At least she hoped.
"Where's your friend?" she asked in an abrupt subject change. He pulled away and raised an eyebrow at her, letting her know he had noticed and he'd let her get away with it, for now.
"He's downstairs. Outside. He's not coming in."
"Because I told him he couldn't."
"Oh.. Is he not your friend then?"
"He is.. .I guess. As much as a friend as I can have. But he's still a vampire. I'm not letting any vampires get near you if I can help it. You're too valuable to my kind."
She chuckled gently, pulling herself out of his arms and turning away. "But you're a vampire. How do I know you don't want me for your own reasons?"
She could hear the amusement in his voice. "Oh, don't worry. I do. Want you, that is, and for reasons all my own. But not for the same reasons they would." She then heard him sigh and glanced back to catch a flicker of an expression she'd never seen on his face before. It was only for an instant, so she couldn't be sure, but it was a look of grief that nearly broke her heart. He was looking at her now with such a self-assured cockiness now that she knew he hadn't intended on her to see it. So she let it go, storing it in her mind as something to reference back to.
"Well, I don't want to keep your friend waiting," she mumbled, off kilter from the sudden awkwardness of the moment. "I'll just hop in the shower really quick."
"Yeah, I was thinking that too. And my friend is a few centuries old. He can wait a few extra minutes for us, I'm sure. And he's an expert at amusing himself if he gets bored."
Danielle suddenly found herself being scooped up into his arms and couldn't help the girlish screech she let escape. Adrian chuckled then quickly found her lips, kissing her deeply as he coddled her close to his chest, feeling her heart race. She opened her lips to him and the kiss deepened automatically. He held her there for a few moments, then planted her on her feet. She felt the cold tile under her and realized that he had made his way into the hall bathroom without her even realizing he was moving with her.
His fingers deftly untied the sash of her robe and let it fall open. She felt the blush rising to her skin but refused to cover herself. It was pointless. He'd seen and touched every part of her. She knew it was only her stubborn human ways that made her feel even more naked simply because she was in the light. He tilted her face up to his and kissed her again, gently, while brushing the fabric of her robe across her shoulders and down her arms to pool on the floor. He let his fingertips slide down her back slowly, then lower still across the swell of her ass. She shuddered in his arms and felt the smile slide across his lips. She pressed into him and there was something about her naked flesh touching his fully clothed body that made her even more aroused. Her nipples hardened against the cloth of his shirt and she felt herself getting wet instantly. She moaned into his kiss.
That moan quickly turned into his whine as he pulled away, still smiling at her. He pulled his shirt over his head in one quick movement, then leaned over to the tub to start the shower spray. She came up behind him, possessed by a bravery she didn't have until this moment, and slid her arms around his waist to unbutton his jeans. She slid them down his hips and pressed her body against the length of his back simply because she couldn't get enough of the feel of his skin on hers. She felt as if she yearned to be possessed by this man and couldn't see how she could ever lay with another...

2012 Detroit Auto Show
The 2012 automotive season started with a bang out of Detroit with the 2012 North American International Auto Show. Ignore the paradox within that name and pay attention to the goods; this year's show featured numerous key releases for automakers. Highlights include new models and concepts from Acura, Audi, Bentley, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Lincoln, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan and Porsche. Pick your favorite or scroll through the gallery for stuff you don't want to miss.

Acura NSX Concept( Scott Eells / Bloomberg )
Aesthetically, the NSX Concept is a winner, and here's hoping Acura changes very little when it brings the car to market. Its profile is similar to that of the Audi R8, also a mid-engine car and one that will probably be a key competitor to the NSX. Designers were even able to graft onto the front of the NSX the oft-maligned brushed-metal grille that adorns current Acuras. Perhaps by the time the car hits showrooms, the company will have moved on from this choice to a new look. A halo car would be the perfect place to introduce it. Full story
