Ravena Kavieria [District Eight] Apr 8, 2010 21:06:11 GMT -5
Post by Thundy on Apr 8, 2010 21:06:11 GMT -5
Name: Ravena Kavieria
Age: Eighteen
Gender: Female
District/Area: District 8
[/blockquote]Codeword: muttations
Age: Eighteen
Gender: Female
District/Area: District 8
Her eyes, once full of life, hope, and passion, now seem dull and lifeless, even when she's angry. Her mother used to tell her "You have the prettiest eyes," and maybe she did. Her eyes have always been large and dark brown, and even though they haven't changed at all, without her excitement, the shape and color mean nothing. She has small bags underneath her eyes, but not because of her stress or the condition she is in. Her mother always had the same exact problem, and so she can easily blame the fault on heredity.
When she was still living with her family, she kept her dark brown hair neat and tidy. She always used to take good care of herself, but now her hair is matted and tangled. Along with that, the last time that she had cut it was when she was sixteen years old, and in the past two years it has grown past her shoulders and to her waist. Right in the middle of her forehead, her hair comes together and forms a widows peak, but because she has bangs, it is hard to tell.
If anything, the shape of her face has stayed the same. Her cheekbones are more high and prominent then most other peoples', her nose is a medium size, and her forehead is wide.
However, what she wasn't born with were the scars. After she left home- or was forced to leave home- she resorted to becoming a thief to feed herself. On several occasions when she had first taken up this new hobby (if you could call it that) she wasn't cautious enough and was caught. Her punishments were never pleasant, and she gained the scars as a reminder to her as to what she had done. Many of them were deep and took a long while to heal correctly, the largest one sitting clear on her face, starting at the top of her right cheek and slanting towards her lip, where she had been purposely cut by someone's knife.
It isn't some silly blemish towards her appearance that she would consider her greatest fault, though. Her strength has always been the problem. She was never strong, in fact, back at the time when she lived with her parents, her father always had to lift heavy objects for her. It always shamed her that he could lift things so easily, and she couldn't. When she left home, she made a promise to herself to become stronger, and she did.. but barely. If she were to be caught stealing again, it wouldn't be hard to overpower her and hurt her- which always happened.
She's more lean then anything else. When she was younger, she always believed that she would stay short forever (she was only about 4'11" at the time), but when she was about thirteen years old, she started to grow at a miraculous pace. Now, at age eighteen, she's obviously stopped growing and reaches a height of about 5'8". Most of that height is in her legs, but that doesn't make her any faster. She was never quite the athlete, but if she needs to run away from a bad situation, you can bet she can do it, though now she is hardly ever caught. Even though at first she wasn't a very talented thief, she has learned to be more silent and cautious about it.
Clothing is always a problem for her. Not because she worries about the latest style of anything- that would be a miracle- but because clothes are hard for her to get. She steals money a lot of the time, yes, but never enough to buy clothing. Because of this, she hardly ever has new clothes, and the clothing that she does have is worn out, which only adds to her image of poor hygiene.
While her appearance has evolved a lot over the years, her personality has changed even more. When she was young, her mind was filled with all kinds of dreams. She was going to be the strongest, the fastest, the best person that she could possibly be. She was going to be beautiful and people would look up to her.[/size][/blockquote]History:
Many years later, all dreams like that are gone from her mind, because reality had set in several years ago and she realized that she was probably never going to rise above anything other then a worker, like her parents. Being important was an impossibility in the Districts. When she realized this, she lost hope that she had anything in store for her when she grew up. She was going to work her whole life in the Districts and never amount to anything.
It used to be that she could walk up to any person on the street and strike up a conversation with them without fear, even if she hadn't even seen the person before in her life. She could look a person straight in the eyes and never have to look away in embarrassment. But that was when she was younger and naive about everything. It was almost as if she was in her own little bubble, where conflict wasn't a word and everyone was a friend.
Then of course life in the Districts made those thoughts impossible. She quickly learned that life wasn't perfect and that not everyone was a friend. People whom she thought were her friends actually hated her, and soon she became self-conscious of how she acted and retracted into her bubble for safety and began to talk to people much less. She became shy around everyone in fear that if she did say something people would judge her for it, but this didn't help anything. She sunk so far into her bubble that people still criticized her, and they made fun of her even more, until the day that she was finally too tired of hearing it. Like any normal human she finally began to stand up for herself and a sense of pride was installed in her after being so put-down over the years. So sick of feeling small and useless, she began to fight any kids that said something about her and quickly made others fear her. While people still rarely talked to her, no one would criticize her aloud in fear that she would hurt them for it. She was quite the bully, and her parents never did much to teach her otherwise. They were too busy working to support the large family to worry about the things she did or what kind of a person she was turning into. She now speaks her mind about everything and isn't afraid to defend herself and note the flaws of others.
At the same time, Rave desperately craved the attention of her parents. They rarely paid attention to her- the oldest child of 6- so she struggled to make them listen to her and help her. As much as she tried to talk to them they always had other things to do and other children to worry about, so she tried even harder to get their attention. She began picking fights with kids she didn't even know, ones who were vastly stronger then her, hoping that if her parents saw her beat up, they would give her the attention she lacked. Nonetheless, her parents were still far too busy to even notice her black eyes. Even when they were notified about the fights, they simply grew more tired of her. Ignored at school, ignored at home, Ravena became more independent and swore to herself that the only person she could really trust was herself. Friendship and love became something foreign to her, but she was okay with that. However, the loneliness sometimes gets to her and she wonders what it would be like to have those friends, to have her family back, to have someone to love.
If there is one thing that isn't negative about Ravena, it is her intelligence. Cunning and observant, she's skilled at watching others and manipulating them. Although she does speak in a rude manner on most occasions, she knows what to say and how to say it if she needs something for her own benefit, if of course, she's talking to someone who doesn't already know her. If she were to try that on someone who already knew her personality, they would clearly know that she was lying and trying to manipulate them.
Ravena was born on October 14th, just eighteen short years ago. She was the first child of two parents who could barely support even themselves, let alone a child. Her father worked picking cotton in the fields and her mother raised sheep, but neither of them created the actual clothes. With the more difficult jobs in the District they had some of the smaller wages and because of that lived in a run-down house amidst many. It was dinky little shack of a house, usually always filthy because no one ever bothered to clean up well enough. From the moment she was conscious of living there Ravena hated the place more then anything, and she was constantly trying to clean it up with fruitless efforts. The house had a dirt floor, three rooms (kitchen, living room, and one bedroom- they shared an outhouse outside), and in the winter the cold was so bad that the family had to stay close while they slept to keep warm. Their house lacked a fireplace, which would have made life during winter much easier for them.[/size]
If life had seemed hard, it only got worse when the other children were born. Five other children came consecutively during Ravena's childhood, with little means to support them. In an already crowded house with few places for children to sleep, all six of them were crammed into the living room to sleep. They were one of the poorest families in District Eight and Ravena was the one who took care of her brothers and sisters while her parents worked, though she hated it. She wanted nothing more then to move out of the house and leave them all to fend for themselves, because she couldn't stand her family much. Her parents ignored her and treated her like she was the worst child in existence (though she probably was, with all the fights she had started) and she rarely got gratitude from any of her siblings despite all she had done to help them. In her twisted, independent mind, she didn't need them. They hated her, so what was the point of caring for them?
Again, she lacked so much attention from her parents and was so tired of her siblings that she no longer wanted to be a part of the family. This became obvious to her parents when she was just sixteen, and they didn't hesitate to disown her and force her out of the house to fend for herself. It was then that she began stealing to feed and take care herself- the idea of working in the cotton fields for the rest of her life frightened her and she wanted no part in it- but at first she obviously had difficulties. She was caught on several occasions and scarred up on her arms and face, but she didn't mind. She had lost the incentive to worry about her appearance. Quickly though, she became more sly and stealthy about her theft and she became very skilled at it. She even started manipulating people into giving her food and even clothing, if she was able to convince them. She has lived like that for two years now, alone and committing crimes to take care of herself. She has no one to rely on, not any friends or family. This is beginning to bother her more and more, but she's too proud to admit it to anyone- if in fact people do talk to her. She's hated by many in her District, and loved by no one.

With a month left in the regular season, it is crunch time for the Hammond Skyhawks, and coach Ray Derrick believes his team is up to the challenge.
Among his reasons for encouragement is shortstop Brooks Borders, one of seven seniors on Hammond (12-2).
They dont come much better than him, Derrick said. Id take nine Brooks Borders and go to war and feel good about it.
Youre not going to find one that works harder than Brooks. Theres nothing that I ask of him that he doesnt give every effort to get done for us.
Borders, a five-year starter for the Skyhawks, said the effort he gives his team is an example of the you-get-out-what-you-put-in philosophy.
Its really about my family and my coaches and just me wanting to make them proud, he said. They have sacrificed so much for me from the time I started, and I want to make sure that I make all of that worth it.
For Borders, the time spent under Derrick has had its benefits.
I think the most important thing is, Ive got great coaching, he said.
Coach Derrick has taught me a lot, and Ive really loved the game and loved playing for him, Borders said. Hes always preaching to us, play the game the right way. You cant control so much of what happens, but you can do things the right way.
Without all the coaching that Ive had, Id never have the opportunity to go to college on a baseball scholarship.
Borders, who plans to play at Campbell University next season, has had an impact on his teammates as well.
Hes been a great teammate. He leads by example and hes just a great guy to have around, said fellow senior Jae Roberts. Hes taught me a lot about the game.
The Skyhawks have been having a stellar season and Borders is looking forward to making the most of the remaining few weeks.
Its been great, Borders said. Senior year has been a special time and Im just trying to enjoy my time with these guys and help my team reach its goal.
Borders and the Skyhawks continue their chase for a SCISA title with an appearance in the S.C. Diamond Invitational, which begins today at Blythewood.

Do your Best
By: Pj Kwong
Do your best. More often than not, rather than inspiring it offers a secret back door for failure. How often have we heard someone speak about having "done their best" but only by way of rationalizing less than perfect results?
Not so today at the ISU 4 Continents Figure Skating Championships in Vancouver where skater after skater seemed to really have done their best.
Take Canada's Patrick Chan who is the leader after the men's short program. From the moment his name was called, he seemed intent on doing his best. He created an almost 8 point lead in the short program by skating one of his best programs. Ever.
The pairs had a couple of "bests" as well. The close-up of the eventual champions, Qing Pang and Jean Tong from China, at the beginning of their program so clearly showed a confidence that has been lacking in recent years. Having found the best possible vehicle for them in a tango-inspired program, it was easy for them to allow the music and inspired choreography to carry them to the top of the podium.
The American team of Caydee Denney and Jeremy Barrett blew the roof of the place last night in the pairs free. Caydee Denney is the youngest competitor here at just 15 years old and watching her boundless energy and mega watt smile gave me the feeling that her best is an everyday thing.
I will be back with lots more from the rink tomorrow as it's All Eyes on Skating from here in Vancouver at the ISU Four Continents Figure Skating Championships. I want to remind you that for those of you wanting to look your best check out Artistry's website and make use of the 15% discount they are offering first time customers.
As always, you can reach me at email@example.com.

Today's Word of the Day means...
organelle or·gan·elle (ôr'gə-něl')
A differentiated structure within a cell, such as a mitochondrion, vacuole, or microsome, that performs a specific function. Also called organoid.
A structure or part that is enclosed within its own membrane inside a cell and has a particular function. Organelles are found only in eukaryotic cells and are absent from the cells of prokaryotes such as bacteria. The nucleus, the mitochondrion, the chloroplast, the Golgi apparatus, the lysosome, and the endoplasmic reticulum are all examples of organelles. Some organelles, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts, have their own genome (genetic material) separate from that found in the nucleus of the cell. Such organelles are thought to have their evolutionary origin in symbiotic bacteria or other organisms that have become a permanent part of the cell.

Lucasfilm Chief Kathleen Kennedy has been courting Abrams, one of the most successful directors and producers in Hollywood — and a man beloved by fanboys. He runs one of the industry's top production companies, Bad Robot, and created or co-created television franchises like "Lost," "Fringe" and "Alias." He has also directed film spectacles "Mission: Impossible III," "Star Trek" and "Super 8."
The lure of the Jedi was too strong, and it will no doubt complicate his relationship with Paramount, where Bad Robot is a top supplier. Abrams has been feverishly working on "Star Trek Into Darkness," his second Star Trek film since he rebooted the franchise in 2009. "Into Darkness," still in post-production, opens May 18. - The Wrap
As of this morning, they are STILL looking for a director. In the meantime, according to sources, the final cinematic Justice League roster will consist of five core members featuring:
1) Superman
2) Batman
3) Green Lantern
4) Wonder Woman
5) The Flash
Fret not fanboys because the Justice League bench is quite deep. There might be one or two cameos from the 2nd stringers. The Justice League Varsity B team consists of:
6) Martian Manhunter
7) Aquaman

Since the S.H.I.E.L.D. series is set within the cinematic continuity and Maria Hill is such a indispensable member of the eponymous espionage agency in The Avengers, can we expect her to appear on S.H.I.E.L.D. in some capacity?

The program, produced by Twentieth Television, is a pop culture driven talk show filmed in Los Angeles. It will feature celebrity guests, fashion & beauty trends; plus a mix of lifestyle topics. "This is something I have wanted to do all my life so it's definitely a dream come true!," said Jenner who will serve as executive producer.

Two days after the freshman comedy was pulled from Fox's Tuesday lineup, The Hollywood Reporter has learned that production on the 20th Century Fox Television produced series ended Friday.

The cast of Don't Trust the B---- in Apt. 23 isn't lying: ABC has pulled the half-hour comedy from its lineup midway through its second season, series star James Van Der Beek announced via Facebook Jan. 22. The actor's costars, Krysten Ritter and Dreama Walker, confirmed the show's cancellation via Twitter.
"Sad to say ABC has pulled Don't Trust the B---- in Apt. 23 and will not be airing the eight remaining episodes any time soon. Translation: we've basically been cancelled. I know most of you watched us on your own time schedule and that the competitive network scheduling game is irrelevant to you, but network TV is a business dictated by Nielson ratings. And while that's an antiquated business model, it's the only one they've got. For now," said Van Der Beek, who played a fictionalized and over-the-top version of himself. - US Weekly
Now New Line has bought one based on an illustration, and it comes with Dwayne Johnson attached to produce and potentially star and Beau Flynn on board to produce.
The picture in question was drawn by Alex Panagopoulos, a Greek software engineer turned fantasy artist. It features a little girl asleep in bed while a small brown teddy bear -- brandishing a laughably small wooden sword and shield -- holds an enormous, fanged monster at bay. And in the fashion of a motivational poster, a caption reads "Teddy Bears: Protecting innocent children from monsters under the bed since 1902." (The teddy bear was invented in 1902 by Morris Michtom, who was inspired by a political cartoon featuring President Theodore Roosevelt and a bear he refused to shoot.)
Hiram Garcia, a former assistant to Johnson, found the illustration [on DeviantArt] and brought it to Beau Flynn's FlynnPictureCo and New Line. The company, Flynn and Johnson together made the 2012 family adventure movie Journey 2: The Mysterious Island. Johnson, Flynn and Garcia will produce what is tentatively called Teddy Bear. No writer is attached and the story's take is being kept secret, but New Line is hoping to launch a big four-quadrant franchise. They no doubt were emboldened by the megahit bear comedy Ted, which made more than $500 million worldwide for Universal last summer. - THR
The car is sexy enough, the contrived nature of the ad wasn't necessary
"…don't objectify me! Just give me money so I can stay beautiful…"
Why stoop to that level of advertising? Tsk, tsk.
Eh. Could have used a better outfit for Kate. And Sandals?! Sandals do not scream sexy. Sweet ride though. C'mon MB, you guys can do much better than this.
I thought Mercedes Benz had more class than that
They Coulve Had Someone Wayyy Sexier Like, Victoria Secret Model Gisel Budchen Or Brooklyn Decker Both Gorgeous Women!!!
Eh. She's so vanilla. There are much hotter women out there that would have been better representatives for MB and its message–which I sort of thought was sophisticated sexiness. She's like a sports and a beer type of girl.
I will be humiliated if the superbowl spot is anything like this.
Embarrassing execution. Horrible ad…..just plain stupid. - With Leather

Wales has a proud and rich industrial heritage, and is characterised by the spirit of its people and the togetherness of its communities.
But it also suffers disproportionately from lung disease – that's where we come in. The BLF in Wales was established in 2005 and works for the one in five people across the nation affected by lung conditions and their families.
People with poor lung health are always at the heart of everything we do. Not only do we fight for them, we offer them support through our Breathe Easy groups. Breathe Easy offers friendship and support to anybody affected by a lung condition, and also to those who are looking after somebody who is.
Visit our Breathe Easy pages to find your local group, or enter your postcode on our In Your Area page to find events, nurses, classes and more near you.
Wherever possible, we strive to ensure that the information we provide is available bilingually. We now offer all our health information in both English and Welsh.

FRASER, MICH. (Oct. 18, 1:30 p.m. ET) — Mold component supplier PCS Co. and its parent company, Dayton Progress Corp., are being acquired by Japan's Misumi Group Inc. in a $200 million deal expected to close in November. Tokyo-based Misumi is a die components supplier specializing in sales in Japan, China and the rest of Asia.

U.S. demand for extruded plastics is expected to grow by 3 percent in 2014, with PVC remaining the largest segment.
Plastic pipe will post the strongest gains through 2018, continuing to take market share from competing materials in a range of markets.
Our latest market report provides in-depth analysis of current trends and their financial impact on the pipe, profile and tubing extrusion industry in North America.
In the wake of the economic turbulence earlier in this decade, molders today find themselves in much better shape. Molders are gaining a competitive advantage by investing in people, equipment and seeking inroads into new markets on a global scale.
Growth in the injection molding industry is going to be driven by low financing costs and a continued move to reshore some business.

At Home
Cleaning & Organizing
storage of papers
DGS and his family are visiting and he wants to have a copy he gave me of the story he wrote when he was 10! (he is now 17)
I think I have my paper things organized but I can not find this (of course having a house full of guests and it being hot sort of impacted my search!)
We have looked everywhere I can think of, I definitely have it, but where? I also thought I was organized but evidently not that well.
They are making such a big deal out of my inability to find this that DH & I are joking about labeling a space here his "archives" and making people wear white gloves to handle his papers!
BTW they of course do have a copy on a computer at their home.
Do you all have a surefire way of storing papers that you could lay your hands on anything you want immediately?
Heck no! I just went thru the same thing looking for the shoulder exercises my physical therapist had worked up for me. My daughter wanted a copy because she is having problems. I panicked because I couldn't find them and I certainly don't ever want to have to go back to PT for another frozen shoulder. All I can suggest is that you give it a day or two and then start another methodical search of every place you might logically have put the story. It will eventually turn up. I found what I was looking for in the second place I had originally searched--just much further down than I would ever have guessed!
I'm to the point that I put all important papers on the computer to save. Works really well if you have cloud storage, or else to just remember to back up your documents on a disc.
I think I'm organized too LOS but sometimes have the same problem you are having. Seems I remember awhile back you sharing a story your DGS wrote to you when he was younger. Perhaps it's saved in your documents on your computer?
GP, I did post a story on here but it was shorter and a more recent one. I could have scanned it into my old computer but I doubt it and anyway that one crashed!
I will do as Sm suggested and wait a few days till the house is more empty . . . actually I will wait till after they leave next week. I know I have it! But where?
Nooooooooooo! It would probably take me a while to search in a few places where it would have to be. But if I had a roomful of people visiting and I got this request at the LAST MINUTE (no advance notice?) then forgetaboutit!!!! Let him find it in his computer (see how long it takes him to find it on his 'puter!!!)
I worked in an office many years and HAD to be efficiently organized...guess when I retired, my 'skills' fell away as well. I have a nice file cabinet which is fairly organized; the prob is that I have mounds of stuff to file and just don'tttttt wanttttt toooooo....ha!
Editing to add: we have moved sooooooo much that I often blame 'missing things' on that

Savor the joys of glorious Saint-Paul-de-Vence on an inspired walking tour that presents the highlights of this medieval village on the French Riviera.
Depart from the pier and drive north, where in time the views of the Mediterranean will be replaced by pastoral countryside and then spectacular mountain vistas. Approaching Saint-Paul-de-Vence, you will see the village atop a spur of land between two deep valleys, where it has perched since medieval times. It's easy to imagine the village During that period, as its 13th-century ramparts are still intact.
You will enter through the main gate and commence a guided walking tour down the winding pedestrian-only streets of Saint-Paul-de-Vence. Your route will take you past lovely churches, shaded squares and fortified towers. You may even see the French game of pétanque or lawn bowling being played beneath a plane tree. The setting has long inspired artists, especially in the 1920s when Signac, Modigliani and Bonnard painted here.
Following your guided walking tour of this marvelous walled city, you will have some free time to explore on your own. The Great Fountain Square is an excellent starting point, from which you can easily reach the grand Collegiate Church, whose construction stretched from the 14th to 18th centuries.
You might also browse the galleries, where work from many of the local artisans is displayed. There are also plenty of other shopping opportunities for merchandise that varies from French fashions to confections. Following your free time, you will rejoin your coach for the return trip to the pier in Antibes.
Please note: This tour includes approximately 75-minutes of guided, moderate to strenuous walking plus any additional walking at the guests' discretion during free time. There are some steps, cobblestone surfaces and and uphill gradients to negotiate. The tour is not available to wheelchair guests and not considered suitable for those guests with mobility concerns. Weather appropriate clothing; sun cap; sunglasses; a bottle of water from the ship; and flat, comfortable walking shoes are recommended. The tour sequence may vary.

The Kenway Composite Materials Laboratory will be dedicated Friday, Nov. 15 at 3 p.m. at the Advanced Structures and Composites Center at the University of Maine.
The lab is being named for Kenway Corporation, a third-generation family business in Augusta, Maine. Founded in 1947, the company produces fiberglass pleasure boats and composite, industrial components.
Kenway Corporation, Kenneth Priest II, Michael Priest and Ian Kopp Families contributed a $100,000 endowment held in the University of Maine Foundation. The earnings support UMaine staff, students, research and scientific advancement of polymer matrix composites and related materials at the Advanced Structures and Composites Center.
Kenway Corporation is also a manufacturing partner with Advanced Infrastructure Technologies to produce Composite Arch Bridges, formerly known as Bridge-in-a-BackpackTM.
A tour and an infusion demonstration will be held following the dedication.

The cabin looked "tired". The bathroom needed re-grouting and the toilet did not work consistently the entire trip. Quickly addressed but not long lasting. And that included flushing the toilet before using it to be sure it would flush (it wouldn't). Most aggravating. My Captain's Club benefits never did show up in the room. The steward was fine but looked like he was in charge of way too many rooms.
The food in main dining was acceptable. The waiter was okay but unable to give the individualized attention I have become accustomed to--it looked like he was handling at least 30 diners at one sitting and more staff should have been provided. Waited a long time for drinks from the bar or after dinner specialty coffees. There was one tall Russian female wine steward who was the rudest person I've ever come across in my 9 cruises and she was banned from our table.
The food otherwise was a disappointment---the breakfast buffet was poorly staffed and food was frequently not replaced in a timely manner. Aqua Spa food was totally lacking in variety. Waiting for drinks at the pool was long. I got the impression that not all the bars were fully staffed. Towels, used dishes, glasses waited a long time to be cleared all over the ship.
The entertainment was spotty. I did like the Zumba but there was little else to say of a positive nature of what was on deck. The comedian was okay. The Aquafellas were wonderful but limited to 15 minute sets every other day which was bizarre. Did not like the frequent short sets of rotating acts at all. And the overall tempo of the music was soporific.
The ports of call were the best part of the cruise---loved Dominica and enjoyed the other ports of call (St. Kitts, St. Croix, St. Thomas/John, Grenada) as well.
Overall, the service was merely mediocre and while the staff was pleasant enough, the smiles did not reach their eyes, and they all appeared lackluster and over-extended.

The Caldwell Zoo in Tyler has two new members in their "family," and they are asking the community to help name them.
The creatures are called Rock Hyraxes.
They only weigh about ten pounds, yet their closest living relative is the elephant!
They are natives of Africa, but this male and female duo came to Tyler from zoos on the East Coast.
However, they came without names of their own.
Caldwell Zoo's Scotty Stainback said, "Everything in the zoo's got names and it can get confusing sometimes, so the easier the name the easier it is for us to remember. But we like it, we think it's fun, and a lot of people come up with unique names so we want to see them all."
To help name these critters, head over to our Big Red Box, where you will find a link to the zoo's Facebook page.
The contest is open until Friday, March 22, and the winner will receive a one-year family zoo membership.

HOUSTON — If you look at a calendar, the first day of winter is December 21. But when Houston-area residents looked out the window on Friday afternoon, winter had already arrived.
A winter storm warning was in effect Friday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. for Brazoria, Chambers, Fort Bend, Galveston, Harris, Liberty, Montgomery, Polk, San Jacinto and Waller counties.
The National Weather Service said an inch of snow is likely in those areas, and accumulations of 2 to 4 inches are possible.
Weather service meteorologist Charles Roeseler said it's the earliest snow in Houston's history. The previous record for Houston was Dec. 10 in 2008 and 1944.
Snow is rare for the nation's fourth largest city. In the past 15 years, it has snowed four times, including Friday.
Snow also made its first December appearance in Austin Friday morning, along with ice accumulation on some windshields. The flurries caused the Austin ISD to cancel athletic events and after-school programs. Only one Austin-area district — Lake Travis — decided to release students early.
In addition to all of that, Southeast Texas was also under a freeze warning, effective until 9 a.m. Saturday.
In a word, it's going to be cold.
"Our normal tropical climate is going to see a significant change Friday afternoon," KHOU-TV meteorologist Mario Gomez said.
Gomez said a block of light-to-moderate precipitation crept into the Houston area from the south Friday morning. That system produced the snow that fell across the area early in the day.
When it meets with a mass of cold arctic air moving in from the northwest Friday afternoon, the snow will really start coming down, Gomez said.
Gomez said the temperature will drop steadily throughout the day and should reach the freezing point around 3 p.m.
And while that could make for a nasty commute, many area residents told 11 News they were excited about the snow.
"That would be great because my 4-year-old wants to play in the snow," Suzi Guerra of Conroe said.
"I'm hoping for 5 inches," Rita Collard of The Woodlands said. "Let the kids build snowmen and play in the real stuff, not the stuff they truck in."
By Friday night, all of the snow will be out of the way, but it will stay cold. Saturday's low is projected to be in the mid-20s, with a high of just 47 degrees.
"Basically a blustery 48 hours for us, so be ready for wintertime – it has arrived a little earlier than scheduled," Gomez said.
A number of area school districts and campuses announced weather-related closures and early releases in response to the snow.
The City of Houston implemented its Inclement Weather Policy late Friday morning. That means the city will only be providing emergency services, beginning at 1 p.m.
Mayor Bill White said he left it up to city department directors to determine which non-essential employees can return home or remain home after 1 p.m.
"Employers should take into account both the needs of their business and work force and also the fact that we don't want everybody leaving their place of business and work all at the same time all during the normal rush hour. So be considerate of your employees. We're lucky in Houston to not have to worry about icy weather but two months a year, but it also means that most people are not used to driving in these conditions," White said.
In addition to that, the city canceled the Mayor's Annual Holiday Celebration on the plaza at Houston City Hall, which was scheduled for Friday night. Officials said the mayor's staff is discussing the possibility of a smaller-scaled celebration at a later date.
Friday morning, the Harris County Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management moved to a Level 2 activation (High Readiness) in response to the weather threat.
Officials with the Texas Department of Transportation and the City of Houston were out working early to make sure the roadways remain safe for drivers.
Trucks left a TxDOT facility at 9 a.m. Thursday, filled with 6,000 gallons of magnesium chloride, which lowers water's freezing point.
"So when the precipitation hits the concrete it doesn't freeze as quickly," said Raquelle Lewis with TxDOT.
They sprayed the compound on hot-spots on the north and northwest side of the Houston area, including bridges and overpasses along I-45 and 290.
"We have lots of crews on call to dispatch after we find out locations where freezing happens outside of our hot-spots," said Lewis. "What we consider hot-spots are overpasses and bridges that are extremely elevated. They are more susceptible to the freezing temperatures."
Officials also sprayed the Pierce Elevated in downtown Houston, the Southwest Freeway along the George R. Brown Convention Center and the East Loop near I-10.
The Harris County Toll Road Authority said they're keeping a close watch on a number of areas, including the Hardy Toll Road, the Sam Houston Toll Road, Highway 249, the Ship Channel Bridge and the Westpark Tollway.
The City of Houston was also ready for the winter weather. City crews loaded up six dump trucks with tons of crushed rock Thursday afternoon.
City officials said if you see an area that needs to be sanded in Houston, call 311.
Though they've tried to get a jump start on hot-spots, officials said drivers should use extra caution when navigating bridges and overpasses Friday. Elevated roadways are always the first to freeze, because they're not insulated by the ground.
Continental Airlines on Thursday said flight plans may be affected by the weather on Friday and Saturday, so they're offering customers the opportunity to change their flights for free at continental.com.
"Customers scheduled on flights to, from or through affected airports Friday through Sunday, Dec. 4, 5, or 6, 2009, including Continental's Houston hub at Bush Intercontinental Airport, are permitted a one-time date or time change to their itinerary without penalty, providing rescheduled travel originates by Dec. 20, 2009. If a flight has been canceled, a refund in the original form of payment may be requested," the airline said in a statement.
With a lot of people cranking up their heaters for the first time this season, fire officials said to be sure you don't stack anything flammable around your heater. If you're using your fireplace, be sure to open the flue before you light it.
It's also important to remember your plants and pets.
The SPCA said people should keep their pets indoors during the freeze.
But if you have an outdoor pet, the SPCA said to provide them with a well-insulated pet house that's wind and waterproof.
And even if you don't have a pet, the SPCA said to bang on the hood of your car before you start it. They see a lot of cat injuries when it gets really cold, because the cats tend to hide under car hoods to keep warm.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

BLOOMINGTON, Ill. -- Dozens gathered in the Twin Cities for a night of praise and worship in the 3rd Annual Pray for a Cure event.
The free service was a prelude to the Bloomington-Normal Race for the Cure this weekend.
The event featured live music along with prayer dedicated to breast cancer survivors and their family and friends.
The Women's Head Basketball Coach at Illinois Wesleyan University, Mia Smith joined the night of prayer.
She was diagnosed last year with breast cancer but is now cancer free.
"I've always been a spiritual type of person," Smith said. "I have a "Jeremiah 29" verse on on my wall in my office. I looked at it daily. Now, to come together with all of the other women who are survivors and those who are praying for us, it is a great complement to being healthy."
"We believe that prayer is very powerful in healing," said Pray for a Cure Chairman, Helen Wright. "Prayer is a place where they seek encouragement and hope."
There is still time to register for Saturday's race.
Activities begin at 8 am at the State Farm Corporate South Campus.
You can register on site or online at komenmemorialdotorg.

SMC Endeez Rope End-icators This is the most useless piece of gear I ever seen !!! www.rei.com/product/841853/smc-endeez-rope-end-icators]]www.>>>
Your link goes to a blank page, so yeah it's faily useless alright. Couldn't find it but there was a thread on this a while back. My search skilz suck.
it's hard to beat this www.thegearcaster.com/the_gearcaster/2011/07/climbing-shorts>>>
Wouldn't this make tying in a royal PITA? And having metal hanging off your knot while climbing. If you took these on/off between climbing and rapping, it would be easier to tie a knot...like thousands of competent and living climbers these days.
1. if yr worried about the end of the rope when belaying, tie an effing knot in it, or keep it knotted to yr rope bag/tarp 2. just tie a knot on rap where youre worried 3. if yr worried about knots getting stuck by wind, trees, etc ... just saddlebag the rope and knot the rope then its that simple ... no need to spend 20 smackaroos ... and honestly if you need stuff like this or those $$$$ "pre-tied" prussics, etc ... theres something really wrong ...
"Climbing Endees, now in abyss color!"
Yeah, kind of useless. Some more fun, useless crap: Black Diamond: ATC Sport - Platinum Kong Frog
My sack. It seems it's never where I can find it when I really need it.
Above all, the Endeez Rope End-icators need an allen key (AFAIK when looking at the pictures ) to fix it to the end of the rope !!
my vote for useless gear. sonoranclimbinggear.com/
Absolutely useless: www.rei.com/product/718303/black-diamond-camalot-c4-cams?pre>>> Who needs to protect a handcrack?
OK, I found it. Similar theme, some pretty good stuff in there. www.mountainproject.com/v/what-was-the-most-regrettable-clim>>>
A Kong Frog is more useful than a Trango Squid.
Gnar down skirt Bionic 8 BiWire Carabiner Wind underwear
This thread is awesome!! With regards to the Endeez, still trying to figure out WTF this means: "Use the Endeez as back-up knots when you're rappelling and belaying" Ummm what?
I never liked the BD Blizzard ice tool holster, even though it seems like others like it.
Skinny rope bags... had enough of trying to stuff rope back in there after climbing, so these days I just flake the rope directly into a top loading pack, and feed it straight out of there next time around.

If you wash, wash on cold (gentle cycle) and line dry; otherwise dry clean. August 11, 2014
This is a good dress shirt to buy if you work at a professional setting or to go out to a nice restaurant. August 2, 2014

I was invited to speak at The Madison County Tea Party Picnic on June 26, 2010 along with The Mayor of Alexandria, Indiana, former Senator Dan Coats, and Indiana Treasurer Richard Mourdock.
After my speech I was surprised by being given a special parting gift. The group presented me with a very beautiful plaque.
This was quite an honor, and I want to thank The Madison County Tea Party for bestowing this honor upon me.

We tried making reservations for the specialty restaurants on-line before the cruise but the only time we could get was 9:30 pm. We finally were able to make a reservation for Portofino's for 6:00 pm (while the ship was still in port) and we had the whole restaurant to ourselves. Great presentation with the Spiedino di mare and the tiramisu is a must. Complimentary Chocolate covered strawberries and a follow-up card the next day made it a tad better than Chop's for me. We did enjoy the filet mignon at Chop's and the service was outstanding. We did My Time Dining and enjoyed the table for two each night.
We spent time in the Solarium. We did see some people reserve chairs. They didn't return to them until 2 hours later. Although we liked the pool, we weren't crazy about the salt water. We found the shows to be quite good. Some nights were better than others. The wait staff always called us by name and knew what we wanted to drink. We found Deck 5 to be good for walking. The champagne bar ended up being our bar of choice. We would definitely recommend this ship.
