Notes from the Netherworld Library - Chapter 22Chapter 22: Gnarl Is UnhappyGnarl froze when he heard voices. Human voices. He'd thought the lands east of the Spine of the World were empty. The great plague which had driven the old Overlords west, long before the Gromgard dynasty, had killed everyone.It was typical of Master Doniel not to tell him there were people here.Bloody deities Gnarl was careful not to think that too loudly. Master Doniel might be listening. Can't go fetch his Dark-plagued books himself, oh no. He has to get me to do it because he's not ready for a pissing contest with the Mother Goddess.Not that Gnarl was ready for that, either. He hadn't been out of the Netherworld since he'd first led the minions there after the Cataclysm, and before that the last time he'd left the Dark Tower had been when Master Doniel was a fledgling Overlord retrieving the Tower Heart and still needed guidance in such matters as controlling his minions.And that was a knotty problem in itself, Gnarl had to admit. Mast
Notes from the Netherworld Library - Chapter 21Chapter 21: Allied IssuesAllies Thorn reminded himself for what seemed like the hundredth time. These westerners were more useful to him as allies than as enemies or dead.It didn't help that the minions were bored and at least as irritable as their master: he was no longer sure whether he was being affected by their mood or they by his. Either way, it was a constant challenge to keep his temper in check.Traveling on foot through a network of caves and tunnels that were mostly sized for normal humans and elves wasn't appealing. While he could fit through most of them, there was so little spare room he felt cramped, confined.Added to that was the constant presence of the westerners' magic. Unlike Evernight's diminished and corrupted magic or the insubstantial fluffiness of Everlight, this was pure light magic, and it set Thorn's teeth on edge. He couldn't even say what bothered him about it.Finally, they emerged from the cave system into a large room. A dozen men in armor tha
Notes from the Netherworld Library - Chapter 20Chapter 20: DecisionsOnce Thorn had the girl resting in the shade, with the blues hovering and petting their baby kroks, he turned to the strangers.Both the elves were staring at Fay, who had yet to stop cooing over her son. One of them asked softly, in a dialect of elvish that sounded ridiculously archaic, "Art thou Blood of Ever Night, Lady?"Fay blinked. Her mouth opened a little, then closed. "I am. My beloved Lord --" she indicated Thorn with her head "-- speaks for me in all things."The elves looked bewildered, their gaze going between Thorn and Fay as though they could make no sense of either. "But... Lady... He is...""Evil?" Fay asked sweetly. "The Mother Goddess would have it that he is." The lilt of sarcasm there spoke more than anything else could. "Though she did nothing when all Evernight called to her for aid, and nothing when the Empire hunted down and killed all creatures of magic without care for their goodness or evil. My Lord's Sire saved Evernight from th
Notes from the Netherworld Library - Chapter 19Chapter 19: Misunderstanding the misunderstandingThorn tore the burning vines from the cliff and strode into the dark cavern beyond. His gauntlets didn't even get warm: good.He sent the minions ahead to protect his children, following at a steady pace that would allow his vision to adjust to the dimness. His senses told him where the babies were, and where the others were. That was enough for now.Someone called out, in a language oddly familiar but incomprehensible.He could see shapes now: four tall enough to be human or elf, two shorter and with the solid build of dwarves. They stood on a rise on the far side of the stream. The minions gathered near a giant lizard... what did the elves call them? Kroks?The girl who'd been tending the babies stood backed up against the cave wall, the babies in her arms. She wasn't going to be able to hold all three of them for long.As Thorn's eyes adjusted, he realized the girl was watching him intently. Without fear, which was interesting in its
Notes from the Netherworld Library - Chapter 18Chapter 18 When Good Rescues Go BadThe beach sands could have been used to cook a sheep. Thorn sweated in his armor, and tried to ignore the way his feet were slowly roasting. It seemed the extra fire resistance Giblet had forged into it didn't count when standing on sand so hot that the reds had to carry the blues, greens and browns to the shade at the edge of the beach.To be fair, the browns had taken the brunt of two days miserable rowing in increasingly hot, humid weather. The blues had revived fully half of them at least once, and some of the weakest browns twice. The reds were the only minions that seemed happy: minions that would dance in lava weren't going to be put off by mere hot air.The shade did help, although the air remained sticky-hot and hard to breathe. Thorn was tempted to strip off his armor just for the slight relief of movement against sweaty skin. Not that he did: the armor was more than just protection for him. It was a symbol of who and what he was, of the Ov
Notes from the Netherworld Library - Chapter 17Chapter 17: Westward Oh CrapMaiala paced the confines of her prison, rocking the dark-haired baby in her arms. Though she tried to hide her fears, all three of them knew something was wrong. They burbled softly, and smiled a lot, but rarely cried perhaps responding to her undisguised terror of anything disturbing the Centurion.Little Red could roll himself over and lift his head for short times, Dark kept trying to pet her cheek, sometimes managing and more often smacking her, while Pale would watch her intently as though he was trying to make something happen just by staring.All three had outgrown their swaddling, which Maiala now used for them to lie on. After near two months at sea, her supply of rags was all but gone. She doubted sea water would help to wash the few rags she had left. It might wash out the baby mess, but the salt that would be left in the rags would do terrible things to their skin.That was less of a worry than the ever-diminishing levels of food and wine. Ea
Notes from the Netherworld Library - Chapter 16Chapter 16: Overlords Hate WaitingThorn sighed under his breath as the dwarf envoy bowed so low he risked tripping over his own beard. It made sense to ally with the dwarves rather than fighting them if only because he was unlikely to be able to seal them in their underground caverns or exterminate them altogether. That didn't mean he had to enjoy it.They were better engineers than anything the Empire had developed, and much better with metals and explosives.After the best part of twenty years underground, they were also desperate for real meat. Thorn's initial good faith gift of half a dozen sheep had been met with the kind of eagerness dwarves were reputed to reserve for gold.Now, the envoy his name in the dwarvish language sounded like boots on gravel sniffed, twitching. He muttered to himself in his own tongue, then asked, "Do my senses deceive me, great Lord? I would swear I smell
beer."Gnarl sighed. "The minions are bored, Sire. They've got into the brewe
Notes from the Netherworld Library - Chapter 15Chapter 15: StudiesThe captain's cabin of the Imperial warship had two occupants, neither of them the captain of the vessel in question. Not that the captain was complaining: Centurion Lucius wasn't the kind of man one complained to.With one exception, currently pacing the cabin. She was almost as tall as the Centurion, a slender young woman with the kind of lush figure men dreamed of. Her dark hair was currently worn in a simple braid, and her clothing an equally simple, if well-made, long tunic that she could manage without the assistance of servants. Her green eyes were narrowed, and smudges of dirt and ash remained on her skin and in her hair: the remnants of her disguise as a palace slave and then a slave of the Overlord.Had any of the ship's crew been watching, they would have been astonished to see the Centurion make a placating gesture. "Lucilla

Notes from the Netherworld Library - Chapter 14Chapter 14: A New NurseMaiala lay still and quiet in the deep shadows of the ravine while she watched the men pass. If they saw her, they'd beat her. She might have been a useful extra set of hands, but lately as the wasteland expanded and the great river's poison ate more of the ocean's harvest she'd become more of a burden. A skinny girl slave wasn't as useful as a sturdy boy, and the other use for girls
well, if it was that or food even the most lustful man would choose food.If there'd been anywhere she could go, Maiala would have run. The Ruborian Desert was as secure a cage as anything physical, and the waste was worse. Villages like Cliffsedge were few and rare: there weren't many rivers, and most of them were poisoned by the waste.Why her mother had dumped her here
Well, that was easy enough. Cliffsedge was the closest Ruborian village to what was left of Evernight Forest, making it the obvious place for a dying, half-mad elf woman to leave her unwante
Ominous- Jeff The Killer x Reader Ch.8After the surprising encounters of yesterday, you were taken back out through unfamiliar woods until you reached a large house.You were given a room, down the hall from Jeff and Eyeless Jack, which was surprising, considering that the two killers were the last people you'd want to be around at night.The first few days were rough however, and the murderous clan took special time out of their day to "familiarize" themselves with you.Toby was by far the nicest. He could be a bit of a downer at times, and his tourettes took some getting used to, but he seemed the most similar to you.Masky and Hoodie were friendly enough, but you always caught them spying on you for no apparent reason. Hoodie never spoke above a whisper and it creeped you out.Masky was gentle and extremely shy, but on several occasions you found him on the floor having violent coughing fits, and swallowing handfuls of pills. He almost never removed his mask, unless he was sleeping.Eyeless Jack, the second oldest, was
Ominous- Jeff The Killer x Reader Ch.7As the creatures words sunk in, you felt your heart skip several beats.What...?You blinked rapidly and took a few steps back. You weren't angry, you weren't terrified, instead you felt a foreign and unexpected feeling that you couldn't find aword for.You looked back at Jeff, who had a hand curled into his hair in frustration. He met your gaze for a brief moment before looking at Slenderman."But can't you just-""My Proxies have a particular skill set, as you've most likely seen from Jeffery. Now, I must ask; what is your relationship with him? It is extremely unheard of for him to spare a life."Slenderman said, cutting him off.You gulped. What was your relationship with him? Friend? No, he wouldn't hesitate to kill you if he wanted to."He had said that he kept me around for company, out of boredom." You replied, which was the honest truth. Jeff wasn't affectionate in any way, and enjoyed getting under your skin.The only time he showed you concern was out of necessit
Fun At The FairLeo sighed. How had Mikey talked him into this?"That'll be $20."Handing the money to the ticket vendor Leo did his best to keep his hand hidden in the large sleeve of his coat so as not to alert the man that Leo and Mikey were not human. A moment later the man shoved two small slips of paper into his hand before waving them away."Have fun at the fair. NEXT!"Handing one of the tickets to Mikey, Leo rolled his eyes as Mikey let out a loud giggle and began pulling him towards the entrance to the fairgrounds. Following Mikey's lead Leo watched amused as Mikey handed his ticket to the person at the gate before going inside and pausing for Leo to join him.Once inside the fair Leo did his best to keep up with Mikey who practically ran; checking out every booth and stall while staring longingly up at some of the rides.As they passed by one of the booths, a man's voice called to them."Hey kid! Come over here. If you pop a balloon you'll win a prize."Leo rolled his eyes and did his
Model Agency-TG Caption ShortNick watched as his mother pulled out the driveway. "Finally!!"He closed his blinds and ran over to his cell phone. He brought up his messages and touched David's name.Nick-Hey man I'll be down there in a minute okay.David immediately responded back.David-WHAT ARE YOU TELLING ME FOR!! PLUG IN AND GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE YOU'RE LATE!! I think the link is starting to effect Alex, he's been to in to long.David-Why don't you tell him to get offline?Nick-(Wow he's still texting) He's waiting for you moron!!Nick put his phone down and closed his door locking it. His mother was going to be gone for at least three hours. Plenty of time.Nick reached under his bed and pulled out a bulky grayish suitcase. He opened it quickly and put it on his bed. It's contents were dozens of syringes, a camera like device, and can of a clear creamy substance. Nick quickly undressed down to his boxers. He took a handful of the creamy liquid and rubbed over his skin head to to
A Royal Guard's Protective ArmsMikey groaned as he slowly began to wake. He was warm; completely cocooned by the blankets on his bed; and he was not alone. He could feel Leo's arms around his hips, gently holding Mikey's smaller body against Leo's larger body."Mmmmm."The sound came from his throat without conscious thought. He couldn't help it. He felt so happy. Last night had been the best night of his life, last night he'd confessed to the man he loved and not only had Leo accepted him and not pushed him away; but they'd slept together. Another low hum came from his throat as he remembered the previous night. He'd never felt that was before. He'd never like that before. He'd never felt such need grip his body.Slowly shifting, Mikey raised his head up off the pillow to look around his room. Early morning sunlight was slowly shining into the room, making everything look slightly orange. Off in the distance he could hear guards going about their rounds. He groaned as he felt Leo's warm breath rac
Goodbye .:EnglandxReader:. (Part 1)If you love something, let it go. If it comes back to you, it is yours forever. -AnonymousI let out another sigh, already exhausted for the day and it was only noon. Mister England has me working day and night now, well ever since America and many others had left him. He lost Canada, Hong Kong, and so many others, I was all that was left really. I remember the happy times, when he used to be so much kinder, so loving. But that wasn't the England I know now.I am known as the personification of (c/n), but most like to call me (f/n) (l/n). I've been around for many years, it's still a wonder how I am still under British rule, but my country is small and I never get the chance to make allies to help me. England keeps me on a tight leash; there is barely a moment that he isn't watching over
Goodbye .:EnglandxReader:. (Part 2)"The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time."― Mark TwainYears were going by and things only got worse. I was so happy to help but as soon as I set foot on my land, questions and accusations were thrown at me because of my land. I hadn't known how bad the damage was, there was only about five miles of land that wasn't touched by nuclear waste and it was used all to grow fruits and vegetables but it wasn't enough to keep them all alive.I helped in farming in the daytime but when night fell, I used a detector for nuclear waste to assess the damage in the ground. It was always so hard because the coughing fits started coming back and my people's tears always flowed form my eyes.I couldn't even tell how bad it was, nuclear waste had enter our water supplies so we had to buy more water from other neighboring countries, thankfully Ukraine was one of them and she was so kind to me. She actually had s
A Hero and his 'Villian'It had been a normal patrol that night. He'd been out, running from rooftop to rooftop when he'd heard the sounds of a robbery. Quickly he'd rushed down the nearest fire escape and out into the street heading towards the direction of the crashes and shouts. He'd found the scene of the crime with little effort; it wasn't hard to noticed when the entire front part of a pharmacy had been ripped apart. he'd entered the pharmacy, expecting to find drug dealers steal stock for their next batch; what he hadn't expected was to find a 9 foot tall hulking turtle mutant with razor sharp teeth and claws, gorging itself on any and all the drugs it could get it's claws on.He'd rushed in, blinding attacking the mutant turtle thinking he could overpower it. He'd been VERY wrong. The turtle mutant had been able to easily hold its own; using its massive size and strength to savagely attack him, even managing to dislocate one of his shoulders before hurling him through a b
Notes from the Netherworld Library - Chapter 6Chapter 6: Animated DiscussionThorn glared at his sire. "I will not be your pet lapdog.""I want you to rule in my name, not be my lackey." The God rose from his throne."I rule for myself." He hadn't fought for anyone but himself: Thorn would be cursed before he'd permit anyone to claim his victories.His sire stepped forward until he stood directly in front of Thorn. "You will rule in my name if I have to break you to it." His eyes glowed with fierce power.Despite his body urging him to submit, Thorn returned the glare, the fury. "Just try." The air between them no more than six inches crackled with power. "I'm no use to you dead."For a long, long moment there was no response, only the hard white glare from the God's eyes. When he spoke, his voice was calmer. "Perhaps we should settle this in the traditional manner. You and me, in the Dungeon training ground, first to submit loses.""You lose if you call on anything but what you had as Overlord," Thorn retorted."Agr

The stakes are high for the 14th annual Battle for Blood. The Fort Wayne Fire Department and Three Rivers Ambulance Authority came out on top in last year's competition against the Fort Wayne Police Department and Allen County Sheriff's Department. This year, first responders will compete for donor votes and to receive 100 American Red Cross teddy bears to give to children.
All presenting donors will receive an American Red Cross long-sleeve t-shirt and will be entered into a regional winter drawing for a trip of their choice worth $2,000. Pizza Hut pizza and Tom's donuts will be served.
In addition to the fun, prizes and food, the Battle for Blood gives community members an opportunity to help save lives at a crucial time of year for blood collection. While many are busy with holiday preparations and travel, blood donations can often fall off of the "to do" list. By giving about an hour of your time, you can help save up to three lives.
The 2008 Battle for Blood is sponsored by Indiana's NewsCenter, WBCL, and Pizza Hut.
Won't you take time this holiday season to give the gift of life to others? Call 1-800-GIVE-LIFE or visit givelife.org to schedule your blood donation appointment.

- An amazing treat!WoncoVIPDined on 8/17/2014My husband and I decided to come to Laloux for our 1 year anniversary after hearing many wonderful things about the food. The reviews were spot on. The food was just amazing. The smoked salmon with poached peaches was one of the best things we have ever had. The prime rib to share was incredibly tasty and juicy. Our waiter was very smiley and kind. I had a fantastic evening.Special Features:

I booked the restaraunt unsing Opn Table it narrowed down the closest restaurants fitting my preference. The restaurant was easy to find and upon walking in my friend and I were greeted straight away. It was busy even though we booked our table for 9:15pm.

- Terrific foodSuperchief1944Dined on 7/26/2014On a sunny summer night, this is a lovely, simple place. Plus there is fine, modestly-inventive food. A starter of a house-made charcuterie platter was super - from a coarse pate to a head-cheese (don't be put off by the name) to house-made pickled vegetables, this was really good. That was followed by pork and clams, a traditional Portugese combo. The pork chunks were tender and well-marinated. The clams, unfortunately, were too small - this dish needs large clams to give the contrast with the pork. I left the choice of wines by the glass to our waiter and his two choices were "spot on". I'd go back to this one in a second, especially since they also got my gin martini just right - not always easy in French restaurants outside the U.S.Special Features:
- Best French restaurant in MontrealOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 7/14/2014The best French restaurant in Montreal. The food, service and ambiance were all excellent. The real treat is the originality of the recipes. Not only is the food cooking top notch, but the wonderful, varied flavors of each dish transports one to heaven. The chef himself forages in the wild for a lot of the menu's various seasonings, herbs and ingredients. It really pays off with incredible results.Special Features:

- Foodie HeavenTorontojoeDined on 6/28/2014For the last few years every time we visit Montreal we make sure to have dinner at Laloux. The service is outstanding with a focus on every little detail, including checking how long it would take for us to walk to our venue after dinner. The sommelier took a special interest in finding us the perfect wine for dinner. And when we asked for his advice on an upcoming meal we are making at home he brought over and opened a bottle of Riesling just for us to taste. The food was out of this world. Each plate had interesting components, including little delectables that the chef had foraged. The lobster and Foi Gras appetizers were delicious and plentiful. Veal sweetbreads were perfect. We may just move to Montreal so we can dine here every night!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ExcellentOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/27/2014On se dirait en Europe. Belle grande salle d'intérieur, bien que nous étions assis dehors. Nous avons pris avantage du menu du midi avec le service d'accord des vins. Mon poisson Doré était si léger et gouteux avec les légumes de mer autour. Et le tout plus abordable que je craignais.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Last Minute ChoiceMontreal2014Dined on 6/26/2014I was in Montreal for one night on business. Arrived late and found this restaurant by chance through Open Table.

The food and service were very, very good and the ambiance there is one of the most inviting in all of Montreal.

Now, Brazil covers almost half of South America and its Amazon rainforest is the world's largest jungle... which is rapidly getting cut down. The country is basically one giant botanical garden with some bangin' cities on its edges.
Brazil was colonized in 1808 by the royal court of Portugal, which was fleeing Napolean's troops. They didn't stay long, and Brazil won its independence in 1822.
Its biggest city, Sao Paulo, is the financial hub of South America. Brazil is the "b" in BRIC -- Brazil, Russia, India and China. These four were labeled the world's fastest developing large economies in the year 2001.
Brazil is known for three things: amazingly beautiful women, carnival, and Pele -- King of Football, Athlete of the Century, football ambassador of the world and a declared national treasure.
Brazillians can tell foreigners a mile away, by the way their hips move. Samba is built into the soul of brazil and carnival is when it bursts out into twenty-four hour undying explosions of sound on every street.

Linocut is a printmaking technique, a variant of woodcut in which a sheet of linoleum (sometimes mounted on a wooden block) is used for the relief surface. A design is cut into the linoleum surface with a sharp knife, V-shaped chisel or gouge, with the raised (uncarved) areas representing a reversal (mirror image) of the parts to show printed. The linoleum sheet is inked with a roller (called a brayer), and then impressed onto paper or fabric. The actual printing can be done by hand or with a press.
Although linoleum as a floor covering dates to the 1860s, the linocut printing technique was used first by the artists of Die Brücke in Germany between 1905–13 where it had been similarly used for wallpaper printing. They initially described these prints as woodcuts, which sounded more respectable.
Since the material being carved has no directional grain and does not tend to split, it is easier to obtain certain artistic effects with lino than with most woods, although the resultant prints can lack the often angular grainy character of woodcuts and engravings. Lino is generally much easier to cut than wood, especially when heated, but the pressure of the printing process degrades the plate faster and it is difficult to create larger works due to the material's fragility.
Linocuts can also be achieved by the careful application of sodium hydroxide in a paste to parts of the surface of the lino. This creates a surface similar to a soft ground etching and these caustic-lino plates can be printed in either a relief, intaglio or a viscosity printing manner.
Colour linocuts can be made by using a different block for each colour as in a woodcut, but, as Pablo Picasso (Spanish artist) demonstrated quite effectively, such prints can also be achieved using a single piece of linoleum in what is called the 'reductive' print method. Essentially, after each successive colour is imprinted onto the paper, the artist then cleans the lino plate and cuts away what will not be imprinted for the subsequently applied colour.[1]
Due to ease of use, linocut is widely used in schools to introduce children to the art of printmaking, using it to complete many tasks in the art lesson rather than going straight for the pencil and eraser; similarly, non-professional artists often cut lino rather than wood for printing. However, in the contemporary art world the linocut is an established professional print medium, following its use by Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse.
Emergence of the technique in America[edit]
The first large-scale colour linocuts made by an American artist were created ca. 1943–45 by Walter Inglis Anderson, and exhibited at the Brooklyn Museum in 1949. Today, linocut is a popular technique among street artists and street art-related fine art. Prominent practitioners include Swoon, Josh MacPhee and Jim Pollock.

Manchester United have won their last 7 home games in a row, and will look to make that 8 today against an Everton side who have little to play for besides pride after crashing out of the FA Cup at the semifinal stage earlier this month.
United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has selected a very strong side today, with the only change from the last outing against Aston Villa being Luis Nani replacing the under fire winger, Ashley Young. Danny Welbeck, rumored to have recently signed a new contract at the club starts alongside Wayne Rooney in attack.
Anderson, Nemanja Vidic and Darren Fletcher remain among the big names out of contention for Red Devils.
Everton will be looking to finish the season strongly though, and manager David Moyes has put out a strong, if defensive looking side which moves John Heitinga or Phil Jagielka into a midfield five as they look to stifle the home side at every opportunity. On the bench there's room for hot young prospect Ross Barkley after a lengthy injury spell.
The Merseysiders are without Leighton Baines and Jack Rodwell through injury.
Manchester United Team (4-4-2): David De Gea; Rafael, Jonny Evans, Rio Ferdinand, Patrice Evra; Antonio Valencia, Michael Carrick, Paul Scholes, Luis Nani; Wayne Rooney, Danny Welbeck.
Substitutes: Ben Amos, Phil Jones, Ryan Giggs, Chris Smalling, Ji-Sung Park, Javier Hernandez, Ashley Young.
Everton Team (4-5-1): Tim Howard; Tony Hibbert, Phil Jagielka, Sylvain Distin, Phil Neville; Darron Gibson, John Heitinga, Marouane Fellaini, Steven Pienaar, Leon Osman; Nikica Jelavic.
Substitutes: Jan Mucha, Denis Stracqualursi, James McFadden, Tim Cahill, Magaye Gueye, Ross Barkley, Victor Anichebe.
The game kicks off at 12:30pm local time, and 7:30am ET. The game is televised live on Sky Sports 1 in the UK, and on Fox Soccer Channel in the USA.

Thawing of diplomatic ice may lead to nuclear agreement in Iran
(New Castle News / New Castle, Pa.)
So what are we to make of Iran's most recent overtures to the United States?
Well, it would appear that economic sanctions imposed on that country — in response to its advancing nuclear program — are inflicting pain. The new Iranian president, Hasan Rouhani, indicates he is hoping to open a dialogue with the West in an effort to ease those sanctions.
Iran's economy is struggling under sanctions. And Rouhani is a moderate (at least in Iranian terms) who is interested in finding solutions to his nation's economic hardships. Hence the professed willingness to discuss nuclear matters.
But talking and doing are two different things. And where Iran is concerned, no one should lose sight of the fact that no matter how agreeable the president may seem to be, it's the fundamentalist clerics and the Revolutionary Guard who call the shots in that country.
Still, the current effort is newsworthy, because it has been 35 years since the United States and Iran held high-level talks. Not surprisingly, this shift — even if it is little more than symbolic — is drawing interest and criticism.
As you might suspect, concerns are being raised in some quarters that talks might lead to an easing of pressure on Iran to make its nuclear program more transparent and to ensure it is not developing atomic weapons.
Obviously, any agreements need to be verified in a manner that opens the door on Iran's nuclear activities. Empty promises are worthless.
Despite the potential for failure or other problems, we support talks with Iran. We believe it is in America's long-term interests to explore options for achieving this nation's goals in the Middle East short of armed intervention. And that's precisely what has been considered as an option for thwarting Iranian nuclear ambitions.

Member Products:Jewelry:Navajo Turquoise Beaded Necklace
For the Navajo, turquoise is believed to ensure favor with one's yei, a holy being who mediates between the human and supernatural worlds. This necklace is handcrafted by Navajo artisans in Arizona and features a smooth cabochon pendant set in sterling silver on a satin strand of blue and green turquoise discs.
Handcrafted in Arizona. Adjustable 18–21"L. Pendant is 1"L.
Believed to bestow the wearer with courage, luck, health, and protection, turquoise has been used in jewelry making for millennia by cultures as diverse as the Navajo, ancient Egyptians, and Tibetans. Turquoise can range in color from light yellow-green to dark blue, and usually contains turquoise matrix, the dark veins of other minerals with which it developed. It figures in the creation myth of the Anasazi Indians, who tell that the tribe first entered the world through the mouth of a New Mexico cave that is now a turquoise mine. In Tibet, the sky is called "the turquoise of heaven," and both men and women value jewelry featuring the gem in sky blue hues. Turquoise is sometimes given as a love token to one's betrothed, because its color is said to remain pure as long as the affection lasts.

CATEGORIES Movies"Now You See Me," a heist movie with magicians standing in as the thieves, is set to hit theaters this May. The film stars Jesse Eisenberg as the cocky leader of the Four Horsemen, a group of magicians plotting to steal millions of dollars and give it to their audience.
Filmed on location in Paris, New Orleans, Las Vegas, and New York, the picture, from Louis Leterrier ("The Transporter"), pulls together a surprisingly varied cast from Woody Harrleson to Michael Caine to Mark Ruffalo.
At the 5 Pointz urban graffiti showplace last November, the stars of "Now You See Me" sat down for several roundtable discussions with a few select outlets. Below, are sevens things we learned on-set.
It took a long time to convince the cast to join this movie "We took seven months to cast, so a long time," Leterrier said, "Everybody, anyone, actors, are terrified it's going to be corny and full of visual effects and everything. But when they understood what we were doing, that's how I was able to get these guys, because they understood they would do the real stuff." Enter Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Mark Ruffalo, and Morgan Freeman.
Eisenberg had a personal reason for joining "Now You See Me" One of the reasons the actor decided to sign on was because of an experience he had growing up. "My mom was a birthday party clown, and so when she was sick, or when it was my birthday and she didn't do the party, she bartered a party for this magician, this guy Bruce," Eisenberg said.
Granted, Eisenberg had some trouble sticking to the code while learning magic tricks for this movie "I feel very guilty doing magic because you're deceiving somebody. When I am with David Kwong [our magician consultant] and he does magic, people love it and they don't want to know [how he does it]," Eisenberg said, candidly. "But I ... just feel immediately guilty that I tricked them and tell them how it's done and David gets upset and the night ends pretty early."
Woody Harrelson hypnotized Mark Ruffalo during filming "Woody got very proficient at hypnotizing people. and we were out one night and I don't know if something was dropped in my drink or Woody actually hypnotized me, but something did happen to me," Ruffalo said.
Ruffalo knows why you would sympathize with the "bad guys" in this film In "Now You See Me," Ruffalo plays a cop looking to take down the group of magicians who are stealing money from banks and giving it to their audiences, so the actor realizes why moviegoers may be backing the thieves. "This has a Robin Hood flare to it and right now there's definitely a populist sort of view of the world that people are being taken advantage of and the big people are taking advantage of them. So the idea of taking from the rich and giving to the poor seems to resonate quite a bit right now."
Dave Franco is very dangerous with cards According to director Louis Letterrier, "Dave has become amazing at throwing cards. He can take a card and throw it across the room. You met Steve Pope, the stunt guy, he slit his eye, above his eye, with a card across an entire theater." Note to self: Be careful around Dave Franco.
Eisenberg's character has similarities to one he's best known for playing, Mark Zuckerberg in 'The Social Network" "In terms of characters I've played, he is controlling and probably unsympathetic in the same way that the character I play in 'The Social Network' is."
Eisenberg obviously loved working with Woody Harrleson "I love working with him, everybody does. He is one of these very unique actors that is as comfortable in a movie like this where there's a lot of effects and where it's fact-paced," Eisenberg said. "To have him there and to see how he paces himself throughout a day, and see how he is aware of the camera angles, knowing to not necessarily expend all of your energy when the shot is nowhere near your body, that's helpful to see."

- We obtained a database of potential Phoenix area mentor teachers in both physics and chemistry through cooperation with the local Modeling Instruction network and the Mary Lou Fulton Teacher's College.
- We obtained and updated a list of both undergraduate and graduate students who are in a physics or chemistry teacher preparation program.
- Five pre-service teachers were contacted and mentored by TIR throughout the year during their internships and/or student teaching experiences.
- LAs were mentored at least once per week by the TIR throughout the fall and spring semester.
- LA Pedagogy Course (PHY 494/598) became an opportunity to recruit and provide guidance for 12 students, 9 of whom became LAs in the semester following the course, and 4 of whom now have firm plans to pursue teacher certification.
- Although it was easy to mentor interns and student teachers when they were available on campus, it was difficult to arrange visits to them in their K-12 classrooms.
- LAs, interns, and student teachers were not always free to implement the reform teaching practices they learned about in the pedagogy course, due to both curricular and time constraints, which was sometimes a source of frustration.
- Looking ahead, it will be difficult for the TIR to teach the PHY 118 Explorations in Science Teaching course, lead the seminar for the Learning Assistants, and build and maintain mentoring relationships.
- The physics department has committed to sustaining the TIR position at ASU, providing a mechanism for continued mentoring of student teachers.
- The Master of Natural Science (MNS) program in the physics department, as well as the associated Modeling Workshops that run consistently each summer, provide an already-institutionalized tool for identifying future teachers and potential mentors.
- The approval of PHY 118 Explorations in Science Teaching (see Course Reform) has set a precedent for identifying mentees and connecting them with local master teachers.
Lessons Learned
- Quality mentoring is critical to support future teachers as they prepare for a demanding but rewarding career. These mentor/mentee interactions correlate directly in how many individuals choose to pursue an LA position and/or teaching.
- Mentoring should not necessarily be considered a one-on-one activity. A great deal can be gained by referring mentees to additional faculty members, graduate teaching assistants, and providing opportunities for mentees to meet with each other.
- Mentoring does not necessarily require a formally scheduled meeting. Mentors should take advantage of chance meetings and maintain a high visibility in student services or tutoring centers; informal conversations are often more informative than scheduled meetings.
- TIR and fall LAs attended the training of the new physics graduate TAs prior to the fall semester to get an idea of their duties and how to integrate PhysTEC LAs with the existing TA program.
- PHY 494/598 Seminar in Teaching and Learning Physics, originally intended solely as an LA pedagogy class, was made available for both undergraduate and graduate credit in order to meet the needs of a wider variety of students. The course was offered in session B of fall 2012.
- Relationships with the ASU Physics and Modeling Instruction group and the Teacher's College were established to compile a database of local mentor teachers, as well as a list of both undergraduate and graduate students in a physics or chemistry teacher preparation program.
- Students in the LA pedagogy course attended the SCALE UP (Student Centered Active Learning Environment for Undergraduate Programs) colloquium and wrote a reflection about the ideas presented.
- Pre-service teachers in other science content areas (specifically chemistry) heard about the PhysTEC team via word of mouth, and came to TIR to arrange more valuable interning experiences for them during their teacher preparation program.
- TIR used local contacts to successfully adjust two pre-service teacher placements so that they occurred in a classroom implementing reform teaching.
- Representatives from the Berkeley Compass program provided a colloquium at ASU. These representatives met and exchanged contact information with LAs and one graduate TA. One of these representatives was subsequently hired to start a program similar to Compass in the ASU physics department.
- The PhysTEC site visit prompted additional communication with pre-service teachers out in the field doing K-12 internships or student teaching. These individuals were especially inquisitive about teaching positions in the local districts, and were put in contact with local schools by the TIR.
- A new PhD and former GAANN fellow mentored throughout the school year by the TIR chose to pursue a position as a high school teacher, and was subsequently hired by a local public charter for the 2013-2014 school year.

Staffed by experienced golfing professionals and computers who've sworn allegiance to the three laws of golfing robotics, GolfTEC's motion sensors and high-speed cameras monitor your swing and break down your form on a high-definition video display. GolfTEC's certified teaching professionals point out your flaws and strengths and coach you on how to permanently improve your game, from tee to green. Sensors chirp with approval whenever you execute a perfect stroke or crack an especially witty golfing joke.
The 18-hole course at Willow Creek Golf & Country Club stretches across 6,450 yards, bending around lakes and intersecting canals as it tunnels through a dense forest. Players must avoid sending golf balls into a shallow grave twice on the 15th hole, as tee shots must carry water to reach the fairway and approach shots must do the same to reach the green. On the par 37 back nine, three relatively short par 5s present birdie opportunities, with the 17th hole eminently reachable in two.
After rounds, players can head to one of the course's culinary establishments—The Grill, The Dining Room, or the Fireside Room—to satisfy appetites and the need to brag about having the highest score.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par 72 course * Total length of 6,450 yards from the back tees * Course rating of 71.2 from the back tees * Course slope of 126 from the back tees * Three sets of tees per hole
Designed by esteemed fairway artist P.B. Dye, Crimson Creek Golf Club's 18-hole course summons golfers with 6,992 yards of well-groomed greenery. Constantly primped by a cavalry of lawnmowers and displaced hairstylists, the course sports a high-quality grass to help putts smoothly hold their line. A segment of the scenic course runs in a wide horseshoe pattern around the north end of Lake El Reno, which—along with a series of ponds that come into play throughout the round—compensates for the layout's scarce population of trees by gobbling up errant shots. Before taking to the first tee, golfers can take a few practice cuts at the club's driving range, check out the pro shop to load up on balls, or visit the Hook-N-Slice Restaurant for a bite to eat or a fork to use as a makeshift divot tool.
Since 1978, players have dodged trees and chased flagsticks across the 6,602 yards that make up the 18-hole championship course at The Trails Golf Club. With just two par 5s total and two par 3s longer than 200 yards, birdie opportunities are scarce, but the course often yields to a smart strategy and threats to pour salt in a divot. Three sets of tees make the course enjoyable for all players, ranging from weekend warriors up to the extremely skilled entrants in both the Men's and Women's State Amateur tournaments held at the course. Instruction from PGA and LPGA professionals is also available to help any player strive for champion status.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par-70 course * Total length of 6,602 yards from the back tees * Course rating of 72 from the back tees * Course slope of 125 from the back tees * Three sets of tees per hole * Scorecard
Coffee Creek Golf Course's 18-hole course integrates groves of trees, rolling terrain, and numerous streams and ponds into a 6,623-yard layout that winds through the rustic scenery of a former horse ranch. The course's front and back nines form two distinct acts of on-course challenges, as the front side roams across relatively open, rolling terrain, setting up a climactic back nine teeming with tight tree lines and water hazards filled with frog civilizations that use golf balls as currency. Slick, bent-grass greens await at the end of every fairway, certain to make even simple putts tricky. Coffee Creek's driving range dutifully prepares pin-hunters' swings to hit the high-fade drive and pinpoint approach necessary to best the par 5 third hole—rated the course's most difficult. An onsite pro shop showcases apparel and accessories from Titleist, Callaway, and Ping, and the Out of Bounds Grill's menu lets players curb post-round cravings without having to eat their stash of broken golf tees.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole par 70 course * Length of 6,623 yards from the farthest tees * Course rating of 72.1 from the farthest tees * Slope rating of 125 from the farthest tees * Four tee options * Link to scorecard
Guiding golfers along a lush chlorophyll carpet that stretches for 6,524 yards from the back tees, the course at Choctaw Creek challenges all oncomers with tight, tree-lined fairways and treacherous approaches into elevated greens. The course's titular creek snakes its way through seven holes of the front nine, demanding cautious attention from golfers wary of the unplayable lies and amphibious gophers likely hiding in its murky depths. The back nine demands precise bifurcation of narrow fairways, lest drives stray into the fairway-lining foliage or greenside bunkers. After golfers work up ravenous appetites over 18 holes, the Creekside Grill stands at the ready to refuel them with sandwiches and house-made soups.
Course at a Glance:
Par 71
6,524 yards from the back tees
Course rating of 71.2 from the farthest tees

Solved! Go to Solution.
Ahh yes, did all that, It's even got the correct name in there, but my name against post is still incorrect!
Yes, the name on the left.
This has changed from before the update, it should not read tnorman, it should, as it has always done read Trev N.
And yes, the last time they updated this forum, my name again changed but was easily put back, now I haven't a clue, hence I'm asking!
the name on the left is the one you used to create a login ID IIRC
That may be so, but it's not the one I have used for the past few years as an identification on the forums.

An Old Lyme man accused of stealing high-quality jewelry, antiques and guns in a series of residential burglaries is heading to California later this month to testify in a high-profile home invasion murder case.
Justin P. Weissinger, 25, was served with an interstate subpoena during an appearance Thursday morning in New London Superior Court. The court documents said that Weissinger, a former Marine who was stationed at Camp Pendleton, is a material witness in a case going to trial in Riverside County, Calif.
Judge Susan B. Handy granted the California authorities' request to take Weissinger to California on April 15 and return him to Connecticut on May 8.
Weissinger was a Marine helicopter mechanic stationed at Camp Pendleton before he was dismissed from the service in 2009 because of drug use. At the upcoming trial in Murrieta, Calif., he is expected to testify about the murders of Marine Sgt. Jan Pietrzak and his wife, Quiana Jenkins Pietrzak, at the hands of four fellow Marines in October 2008.
Though Weissinger was incarcerated on a burglary charge when the murders took place, authorities said he testified at a 2009 hearing that he had carried out burglaries and home invasions with the accused Marines in the past and that they confided in him the details of the murders.
Weissinger testified that the four Marines went to the Pietzrak home in Winchester, Calif. He said the men told him they confronted the sergeant at gunpoint, tied up Pietzrak and his wife, ransacked the home and sexually assaulted the wife. Weissinger said the men shot the couple three times in the head as they kneeled over a couch. The men said they then set the house on fire.
Weissinger is accused of carrying out a string of burglaries with his younger brother, Karl, after returning to Connecticut and has been incarcerated since June 2012 while his cases are pending in Superior Court. At his court appearance Thursday, he was served with a new warrant charging him in connection with the theft of four guns that were found during a search of a Brush Hill Road property in Lyme last summer.
In June 2012, Weissinger allegedly led police on a chase from Route 151 in Montville to Cardinal Drive. Montville police said when they arrested Weissinger, he was in possession of marijuana, methadone pills, heroin and a stolen gun. The arrest led to a state police investigation at the Lyme home of William T. Koch, who is the boyfriend of Weissinger's mother.
Two days after the chase, troopers executed a search-and-seizure warrant at the barn on the Koch property. Using a key they had seized from Weissinger after the car chase, they opened a gun locker in the barn and found a 12-gauge shotgun and a .22 rifle stolen from a burglary on Bashan Road in East Haddam and two air rifles stolen from a burglary on Hagen Road in Salem.
Handy set a bond of $150,000 on the new charges of second-degree larceny and criminal possession of a firearm. Weissinger is being held in lieu of a $550,100 bond at the Corrigan-Radgowski Correctional Center.
Prosecution of his Connecticut cases will resume when he returns from California in May.

EDINA, Mo. (WGEM) -- Every season there are always a handful of teams that for one reason or another, seem to fly under the radar.
In 2012 one of those squads was Knox County, who quietly finished with a (7-4) record, and racked up some huge offensive numbers, amounting to 33 points per game.

A Broward County man died Saturday morning when a small plane crashed into Lake Okeechobee, Palm Beach County Fire Rescue said.
Divers located the victim around 9:30 a.m., said Capt. Albert Borroto, Fire Rescue spokesman.
The man is in his 50s or 60s, said Teri Barbera, spokeswoman for the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, which is investigating the crash. She said the office would not identify the man further until authorities notify his family.
Fire Rescue received a call shortly after 8 a.m. about a possible boating accident on the lake, about 200 yards west of the Pahokee Marina, Borroto said.
The aircraft appeared to be an amateur, experimental plane, Borroto said. Units from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission also are on the scene.

In the past year, we've seen a heroin epidemic hit our suburbs. Major busts have occurred in nearly every area county and at several schools. According to experts, young people start experimenting with drugs as early as age 12. How can a parent spot if their child is up to no good?
Trophies on shelves on the walls, posters of baseball players pinned on the wall, some clothes on the floor and in a closet, a highlighter, Pepsi can, other stuff on the floor including a guitar, these are all stuff you'll find in the bedroom of most teenagers. However, in this room there are several places to hide drugs You have to really know what to look for.
FOX 29 first introduced you to Devin Reaves last October. Devin was addicted to heroin but turned his life around and is now a certified recovery specialist. Devin knows where teenagers hide drugs
"Tight off the bat this Pepsi can sticks out to me now. What you might not know is a lot of times these cans are actually something called diversion safes. This is just a regular can, but if it was a diversion safe, you could screw it open and there would be an empty space in there where a teenager could hide drugs, money and paraphernalia to use drugs"
A highlighter is stationery a lot of teens use for school but Devin says sometimes a highlighter is more than a study aid.
"A lot of times, highlighters can be transformed into a bowl. Now this is just a regular highlighter that you would use in school, but the ones you're talking about is you pull this off, screw it in kind of like this and you put marijuana in and then you would smoke it," he demonstrated. "One thing I want parents to keep an eye for is the smell. If you smell something like tobacco or a marijuana smell, something burnt in your child's room, you're gonna wanna look around because that's a good indicator they are smoking marijuana."
Teens have plenty of more tricks to hide drugs in plain sight. They're very creative.
Deb, who doesn't want us to use her last name to protect the identity of her youngest son. has experienced the heartbreak of addiction as a mom. Her youngest son overdosed and almost died.
"You feel embarrassed you feel as though your child's choices are a reflection of your parenting," Deb said.
Deb says one of the alarming facts of substance abuse is that there is no profile.
"Parents really don't know what's going on and they can't think it's not going to happen to my family; it happens to nice families too," she said.
Devin emphasizes to parents that you have the right to search your teen's room and it's important to know where to look for drugs.
"The thing about the girls' rooms is that they have a totally different setup," explained Devin. "A lot of times girls will have make up boxes. You're gonna wanna check through all of this."
"When you think about a compact bag of cocaine or maybe Molly is very tiny so you could hide that right under that makeup wafer and nobody would ever know," he explained further.
Deb now speaks all over the country to parents about drug awareness in the hopes of helping others
"When it impacts families and they come back and say because of what you said I went home and I found this and I found that and now I need to get my child help," she said. "If I can help someone else avoid the pain I went through…it's a roller coaster of emotion that we didn't buy the ticket for."
Devin says it's important to remember almost any 'hollowed' out space can be used as a hiding place. Other places to look include the battery compartment in an old radio or game, an unused power strip, empty cd cases and even pockets of hung up clothes.
There are resources online to help with adolescent drug use: Caron Treatment Center and Rehab After School.

The same munitions manufacturers for sporting firearms produce small ammo for the military and police. There are tons of small munitions being shot up in the war zones plus the military and police training sites in the US and abroad.
Then there is the munitions being shot up every day by civilians in the US plus being horded.
I spent two summers TDY at AP Hill, Virginia supporting the ranges. It wasn't uncommon to load up a 2 1/2 ton truck half or more full of ammo for a days shooting. This was mostly supporting the Army Reserves.
If you want to do more research on the topic. Look up the munitions manufacturers.
