Chris Morris - Morning Dew
Artist: Chris Morris
Producer: Nabeyin
Album: Hip Hop Fell in Love With Me
Avg Rating: 4.6 ( 23 total votes )
Not glimpsed on our front page since October of 2012, when he earned reader acclaim for Booth debut Focused, Chris Morris returns to re-introduce himself with a fresh song release off his next EP. Nabeyin handles production duties on Morning Dew, crafting a mellow, yet densely-layered instrumental to accompany the West Palm Beach resident's blunted philosophizing. Freely admitting that he's "high as a telescope," Morris laces the beat with entertainingly off-kilter insights into life as he knows it: "Learned it from an older man, [h]e told me that the world full of doors, and the keys that you need to explore like the birds to the bees, or a feather to a breeze…" For this breezy cut and much more, cop the HipHop Fell In Love With Me EP when it drops digitally in early March via The DJBooth.

Reducing Exploration and Appraisal Risk in Low Permeability Reservoirs Using Microseismic Fracture Mapping - Part 2
To fully exploit MSM measurements requires integrating MSM with hydraulic fracture propagation models, geological and geophysical (G&G) measurements, geomechanics, and reservoir simulation (Cipolla et al. 2010b).

Parametric and Semiparametric Estimation in Models with Misclassified Categorical Dependent Variables
AbstractWe consider both a parametric and a semiparametric method to account for classification errors on the dependent variable in an ordered response model. The methods are applied to the analysis of self-reported speaking fluency of male immigrants in Germany. We find that a parametric model which explicitly allows for misclassification performs better than a standard ordered probit model and than a model with random thresholds. We find some substantial differences in parameter estimates and predictions of the different models.

Editor's note: This story is a CNN Health favorite. It was originally published in August 2013.
(CNN) -- As a first-grade teacher, Julie Miller is exposed to a horrifying number of germs on a daily basis.
"I've been thrown up on; they sneeze and cough on me. And lost teeth are a real big thing for first-graders," said Miller, who teaches at Spring Hills Elementary in the suburbs of Chicago.
Elementary ways to keep germs away How to avoid catching the flu What's dirtier ... your tablet or toilet?
"They're so cute and unaware, though. They'll have boogers hanging out of their nose and will be talking to you and not think anything of it. Some teachers flip out, but I tell my students, 'Go get a Kleenex and wash your hands.' When they sneeze, I teach them to do it into their elbows. They learn eventually."
On average, elementary school children get eight to 12 colds or cases of the flu each school year, according to the CDC. For the older kids, it is about half that. Teachers and parents commonly refer to it as the Back-to-School Plague.
But there are simple ways to keep your kids healthy.

2.65/5 rDev -31.9%
Poured a pale straw color with a nice white head. The head started strong but quickly dissipated with time.
A decent aroma of malt and some grassy/earthy notes greets the nose. The flavor isn't very far from the aroma in that it offers more of that earthiness. A moderate amount of carbonation is visible. This beer does offer some nice hoppy bitterness, but doesn't ultimately live up to the expectation. This is something you can go ahead and pass on.

2.83/5 rDev -27.2%
A: Poured from a bottle to a pilsner glass. Had a pale yellow color and a clear consistency. There was an inch and half of creamy, long-lasting head. Very good lacing.
S: Not a great aroma, with traces of hops, malt, and a definite skunky quality.
T: Like the smell, the taste had a pronounced skunkiness to it. Very unpleasant. In addition to this, the hops level was out of balance and kind of harsh. Had some malt and citrus in it, but this didn't help. Not a great flavor.
M: A good amount of carbonation with a harsh finish. Light-bodied.
O: For sure, this is a misfire of a beer. Could have been better.

BOM selection. Finally got around to drinking the last bottle and doing a review. 11.2oz bottle poured in to a Pilsner glass.
A- Pale, golden. 2 finger, fluffy white head faded to small rim. Not much lacing.
S- Flowery, herbal, sweetness.
T- Sweet (honey?), flowery, lemon citrus, crisp, dry bitter finish.
M- Good carbonation. Not much else to say.
D- Very easy drinking. I agree with BA tgbljb, the dryness leaves you wanting another sip. That being said, it's not a bad beer, not a great one. This beer just is. I had it with a Diablo Chicken Pasta (i was sure to give the beer ample tasting before diving in to the meal). It was a nice way to wash it down (should have had a good, hoppy ipa though).

3.25/5 rDev -16.5%
Poured from the bottle into a pilsner style glass.
A light yellow with lots of green tinge color to the body, slight rising carbonation and a bit hazy. Big bleach white and very uniform head on the pour, easily four fingers, with lots of soapy retention. Weird looking color but otherwise not bad.
Nose is a bit hoppy. Hints of grass and green herbs. Slight doughy malts a little bit, with no sense of sweetness. Otherwise fine and alright.
Taste seems to be a bit helter skelter. Light bodied but with little mid palate flavor. Taste is all in the finish with a large hinting hop angle, that comes off very mineral and medicinal. A very unpleasant and unbalanced lingering medicinal bitterness will just not go away when having this. Warmth brings a real metallic twinge to this like eating aluminum foil.
Overall, it's not bad but the finish is a real mess and comes off real unbalanced.

Radek's bottle shared. No aroma. Pale yellow body, very little head. Dry, some pils taste, mineral, faint hops.Passable beer, unoffensive.Drinkable on a warm day or if the only beer about.Clean, slight fizzy carbonation.A tad lemony. Fair, but nothing special for style.

On tap at Congregation Ale House in Pasadena, CA.
Pours a hazy light gold with a foamy orange-white head that settles to a thin cap on top of the beer. Small patches of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of malt, grain, grass, and fruit aromas. Taste is much the same with grain, grass, and fruity flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of hop bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer that is tasty but has a slightly better smell in my opinion.

Poured a bright golden color with a foamy white head, leaving good lacing in my glass.
Smell of wheat and grasses, plenty of hops.
Tasted very crisp and clean, hops were present and even some citrus.
Mouthfeel was good. Nice carbonation and a clean body, a refreshing beer especially for the weather we have here in Vegas.
I was pleased with this beer, and would certainly enjoy having it again.

Presented in a 500ml bottle like the one shown and poured into a standard pint glass. Drank one while waiting in line at Pizzeria Bianco in Phoenix.
Appearance: pale yellow color topped with a foamy white head that left noce rings of lace on the walls of the glass.
Nose: dusty malts and grassy hops notes. Good level of hops here.
Taste: some hayfield malt flavor and pretty well hopped with an herbal bite going on.
Feel: light- shading toward medium-bodied and refreshing.
Overall: actually, not too bad; mot as crisp and refreshing as I would have liked in a Pils but pretty tasty. Overall, no complaints.

Bottle dated 10.01.12 which I'm assuming is an expiration/best by date of January 10, 2012.
A: The beer pours a very pale yellow color with a rocky white head that is retained very well.
S: Definite skunk on the nose which worries me. Plenty of lager yeast and pale, cracker malts. Some lemon zest and floral hops, and a light fruitiness--maybe apples.
T: Pale malts with a soft bread flavor. Lemon zest, lightly bitter, earthy, and floral hops. Some cracker malts and a light sweetness. A light but pleasant beer.
M: Light in body and moderate to high in carbonation.
O: Would have been nice if it didn't have the skunkiness. Otherwise, not bad.

Look - Light straw color. Two fingers of foam that dissipated quickly. Good carbonation.
Smell - surprisingly malty smelling despite the type and number of hops that must be present. Also surprisingly a caramel smell.
Taste - the taste brought the hops that I was missing in the smell. Definitely hoppy and bitter. Bitterness is definitely strong, but all the more a good example of a German Pils.
Mouthfeel - Very good balance between watery and creamy textures.
Drinkability - Maybe a little too bitter for me to come back to, but enough complexity in it to keep me occupied.

A: Pours bright yellow and is topped with a foamy bone white head. Looks great... lots of carbonation bubbles.
S: Pale malt comes through on the nose.. as well as some freshly cut grass qualities.
T: This is a good pils! There is a nice amount of bitterness behind it which I like. It must have had a fair amount of hopping. There is a cracker like quality which this pils has as well.
m: carbonic tang
D: medium

Appearance- Light straw, just a tad cloudy and very-well carbonated. Nice, loose, white foamy head that has some staying power, but does eventually fall. Leaves just a trace of lace.
Aroma- Pretty sour for a pilsner. No hops, no cirtus or malt. Very clean aroma. Just a hint of green apples.
Taste- Whoa! Initial taste is the way it smells, mostly sour mash and lemons. But about 1/2 a second after it hits your tounge, you get a jolt of hops.
Mouthfeel- Light and crisp. Good, light body. Carbonation level enhances the flavor.
Drinkability- Not a day-time beer like most German Pilsners, but well worth a try.

Extremely pale goldenrod that is similar to a light/lite lager in hue. A few steady bubble streams motor up to a beautiful crown of cumulus cloud white. The foam is loaded with surface pits and is nice and sticky as well. Plenty of lace is the end result.
The nose is classic noble-hopped German pils. In other words, it's grassy and floral with a terrific twist of lemon peel that adds a certain brightness. It smells pretty fresh too, even though this bottle is just past the best-by date.
Like the color suggested it would be, Schonramer Pils is clearly on the lighter side of the style spectrum. The ABV is fine, but it doesn't taste like there's much barley in the house. That's much more forgivable in an easy drinking pils than in... say... an old ale or a stout.
What is most likely 100% pale/pils malt adds a lightly sweetened cereal grain flavor, with no hint of toasted breadiness. The hops are still grassy, lemony and a trifle spicy. A fair amount of bitterness is still present, probably because malt sugars are so few and far between. If reviewed closer to the brewed-on date than the best-by date, I'm fairly certain that the flavor and drinkability scores would have been higher.
The mouthfeel is appropriately light and has just enough carbonation to get by. A few more bubbles would have been better, though there's really nothing wrong with it as is.
The head brewer at Private Landbrauerei Schonram is Eric Toft, who hails from Wyoming. It's great to see an American succeed at such a venerable German brewery. Schonramer Pils is good beer. Just make sure you get a fresh sample in order to appreciate it in all its glory.

A: The beer is crystal clear straw yellow in color and poured with a two finger high bright fluffy white head that slowly died down leaving a thin layer of bubbles consistently covering the surface. A moderate amount of carbonation is visible.
S: There are moderate aromas of grainy malts in the nose along with some notes of grassy hops.
T: The overall taste is quite malty and is accompanied by a relatively strong amount of bitterness from the hops in the finish.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied and very crisp on the palate with a medium amount of carbonation. The finish is very dry and leaves you longing for another sip.
D: If you like bitterness, this beer is very easy to consume.

Pour: .5L bottle to pilsner glass. Beer is very pale with a two finger white head. Small amount of bubbles inside glass and the head is a sticky, big bubbled pillow of a cap that leaves good lacings in its wake.
Nose: Strong smell I associate with pilsner (hops?) that seems slightly acidic, with tons of grains and honey notes, like a warm biscuit.
Mouth: Light honey and citric flavors mingle upon entering the mouth. With the swallow the hops become known, leaving a gentle bitterness behind that carries a touch of saltiness with it. The hops also hint at some dried green kitchen herbs... grassy. The mouthfeel is a bit inconsistent and tends to be pretty weak.

A - The beer pours a light straw color. This beer is extremely carbonated. I'm getting a white, foamy head that stays well for pilsner, but eventually falls. No lacing.
S - Not much here, but it does come across a bit sour. Very little hops, some cirtus. I'd say this is pretty standard for a pilsner.
T - Sour, almost like lemons. The hops that weren't very pronounced in the aroma are more apparent in the taste. Very crisp, very clean, very good.
M - Thin bodied but very crisp. I think the carbonation is at an optimal level.
D - This is a very good pilsner. My only complaint is that I've only seen it in one place. If it were easier to find and more widely distributed, I'd improve the drinkability.

Gamershell reports that Ryzom has been rez'd. Apparently, the game servers are now open for all who formerly had an account (even a free trial account). That said, I haven't yet tried logging in yet.
Despite the fact that the game was a little rough around the edges, I liked it. It had a unique styling, some novel game mechanics, a heavy crafting element and a healthy dose of what felt like old school MMO. Hard to explain, but it was there.
Previously, I only had the opportunity to play the trial account before the game fell upon hard times. One aspect I didn't get to try was "the Ryzom Ring" … a facility to design your own encounters (as I understand it).
I look forward to loading this title up again … even subscribing for a bit … or micro-paying … whatever the model turns out to be.

History of St. Petersburg Museum
Rimsky-Korsakov Apartment Museum
Jim Heintz
The Associated Press
Published: January 7, 2014 (Issue # 1792)
SOCHI, Russia (AP) — For visitors to the Winter Olympics, Sochi may feel like a landscape from a dream — familiar and strange at once. Palm trees evoke a tropical seaside resort, but the Black Sea itself is seriously cold; turn away from the palms and the jagged, snow-covered peaks of the Caucasus Mountains rise nearby. Lively and garish modern buildings mix with Stalin Gothic piles, like trophy wives on the arms of elderly men. Billboards are written in an alphabet where some letters sound exactly like you think they do, others mean something else and the rest are flat-out alien.
What may seem oddest of all is the city's cheerful and relaxed aura in a country stereotyped as dour. Even a local statue of Vladimir Lenin catches the casual vibe. He's not haranguing the masses, just standing under some trees with one hand in his pocket as if he's killing time waiting for a date.
Some questions and answers about the resort city often called the Russian Riviera:
Am I in Sochi?
Rather like New York City, Sochi is a sprawling municipality, incorporating four boroughs. Confusingly, one of the four is called Sochi. So it's possible to both be in Sochi and say "I'm going to Sochi."
All the Olympic events take place in the Adler borough, though the snow sports venues are often referred to as being in specific settlements such as Krasnaya Polyana and Esto-Sadok.
Sochi borough is more or less the Manhattan of the city, home to the best restaurants, coolest clubs and the main cultural institutions. The urban part of Adler also has attractive restaurants.
But while its attractions are relatively cosmopolitan, and its coastline is 90 miles long (145 kilometers), Sochi is not a big city population-wise, with only about 350,000 inhabitants.
Will They Understand Me (And Vice Versa)?
Volunteer staff at Olympics test events spoke excellent English and sometimes struck up conversations just to improve their skills (or show off). But outside the Olympic venues and large hotels, communication in languages other than Russian is likely to be difficult. The Games' organizing committee recommends that mobile device users download a translation app.

Although thesand sculptures at the Peter and Paul Fortress are more centrally located and therefore more visible to the throngs of tourists, the 300th Anniversary Park of St. Petersburg's own collection closes today so fans of the classic beach activity should get there while they can.

Decent hotel overall.Posted Aug 18, 2013
Pros: The air conditioning
Cons: The smell of sewerage.
Location: Well out of the the centre but in the middle of the busy part of rimini Can be a bit intimidating for a family and there's a sinister side to the area
The hotel was ideal for what I wanted, which was just somewhere to sleep really. There was no room for me when I turned up though but after a few phone calls and some juggling around I managed to get it sorted in the end.

Home field advantage has been one of the longest standing advantages for football teams, but Lamar School's Mac Barnes begs to differ.
"Starting on the road just means you don't have to mark the field," Barnes said with a laugh. "It really isn't that big of a deal for us because we are a pretty good road team. We don't even think about it other than you have a longer drive to get to the field."
The first year of the Mississippi Basketball Association youth league was considered a success and plans have already begun for the future.
M.B.A. director Fred Tate said "this first year was great and the kids had fun."
ACKERMAN – The Choctaw County Lady Chargers may be young, but they are talented.
Considering Choctaw County's 3-1 overall and 2-0 division start in volleyball, that seems to be a very fitting statement, but ask coach Gary Beals and he will tell you the season is just beginning.
Mississippi State was already going to have to replace a right tackle this season, but now they have another problem.
It was announced Monday that senior Damien Robinson was lost for the season after tearing his ACL.
Co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach John Hevesy feels comfortable in finding someone to fill the hole left by Robinson.
Defense could be the name of the game in Starkville this football season.
If what took place in preseason jamborees last weekend is any indication, opponents of the Starkville Yellowjackets and Starkville Academy Volunteers might not see very many points appear on their side of the scoreboard.
Never did more than two points separate Starkville High School and Madison Central at the end of a set during Tuesday night's volleyball match.
It was a true battle through and through, but at the end of the day, consistency and "hustle" paid off as the Lady Jaguars claimed a 3-0 victory (27-25, 25-23, 25-23).
Training camp is over for Mississippi State.
The last two weeks were spent at the farm, which were some of the roughest days of practices for the Bulldogs.
That part of the fall is over as school started Monday.Â
SCOOBA – East Mississippi Community College sophomore running back Preston Baker would like to take his game to another level this season.
Freshman offensive lineman Jawon Johnson of the Lions wants to help Baker out with a block or two along the way.
The two former Starkville High School players expects to contribute this season for the defending national champions.
SCOOBA – The East Mississippi Community College Lions will be turning to a player with a famous last name when it comes to the quarterback position this season.
Chad Kelly, the nephew of Pro Football Hall of Fame signal caller Jim Kelly, will take over the controls for the EMCC offense this season.
Coming out a tournament where multiple games were played no one would be surprised if a team's energy was a little low.Â
That was not the case with Starkville Academy's softball team. Instead the Lady Vols looked alive for the most part, but they just simply ran into a strong offensive front in Hebron Christian School and in the end, it was the Lady Eagles coming out on top 17-4.

'CNBC Titans' biography of Apple CEO Steve Jobs airs Thursday nightThe season premiere of "CNBC Titans" will kick off this Thursday at 9 p.m. when the program offers an unauthorized look at Apple's iconic chief executive, Steve Jobs.
In previous seasons, "CNBC Titans" has offered a closer look at legendary executives and staples of American culture like Donald Trump, Ted Turner, Hugh Hefner and Merv Griffin. This week's season premiere will mark the first time the program takes an unauthorized look at Jobs.
"Irrepressible and iconic, Steve Jobs has reigned as the undisputed king of Silicon Valley for the better part of three decades," the official episode description reads. "From the Macintosh and the iPod, to iTunes and the iPhone, Jobs has secured his legacy as one of the few who dared to 'Think Different.'"
Before the episode airs, viewers can preview the hourlong program and watch a number of exclusive Web extras available on the online episode guide. There, some of the highlights of the program are also detailed.
The previews and Web features indicate the special will cover Jobs' role in the personal computer revolution, as well as his "confrontational personality." One snippet notes that Jobs is "famous for his ruthless reputation inside the walls of Apple."
"From his parents' California garage he launched the personal computer revolution and built Apple into the most envied, and valuable, technology company in the world," the description reads.
Future episodes of "Titans" this season will cover musician Quincy Jones, Jack Daniel's whiskey, and Hershey's chocolate. New episodes will premiere on Thursdays through the end of August.

Restored grave of Victoria Cross hero unveiled (From Times Series)

Dudley Stagpoole, Victoria Cross hero, honoured with restored grave in Hendon Cemetery
9:32am Thursday 1st July 2010 in News By Zoe Drewett
Susan Kybett, great-granddaughter of Dudley Stagpoole, was among invited dignitaries at the grave in Hendon
THE great-granddaughter of one of Britain's Victoria Cross heroes paid tribute to her ancestor when his restored grave was unveiled in Hendon yesterday.
Susan Kybett, 71, was among dignitaries at a ceremony at Hendon Cemetery to honour Irishman Dudley Stagpoole.
The event was organised by Middlesex Regimental Association after six years of fundraising.
Mr Stagpoole was a Drummer in the 57th Regiment of the Foot, later the Middlesex Regiment, who was awarded both the Victoria Cross and the Medal for Distinguished Conduct within a week of each other for his bravery during the New Zealand Land Wars in 1863, aged about 25.
Mrs Kybett was initially unaware the ceremony was taking place, but dashed from her home in South London after the Times Series contacted another descendent who lives in New Zealand.
Mrs Kybett, said: "At 1.05pm I got an email from my cousin Janine in New Zealand. Fifteen minutes later, I was out the door. I went from Blackheath to Hendon in an hour. I think that's pretty impressive for a 71-year-old."
She added: "On the train here I kept thinking, 'Why have I not been to visit the grave?' I think I was waiting for today.
"I think it was meant to be. Now I'm here for the rest of the family and the story of this will go round the world."
One of Mr Stagpoole's four wives, Anne Gillard, gave birth to Elsie Jones, who was Susan's grandmother. Her son Leslie Jones was Susan's father.
Mr Stagpoole won the Medal for Distinguished Conduct in the Field on September 25, 1863, for an incident in the Taranaki region, when he twice volunteered to bring in wounded men despite being injured himself.
On October 2, at a battlefield nearby, he rescued a comrade injured by Maori fighters. His commanding officer asked for volunteers and Mr Stagpoole, along with Ensign John Thornton Down, brought the man back despite being under heavy fire. For this he was awarded the Victoria Cross.
After later living in Ware, Hertfordshire, Mr Stagpoole died on August 1, 1911, and was buried at Hendon Cemetery, in Holders Hill Road.
The headstone was put up in the Forties, but fell into disrepair.
Rex Cain, president of the Middlesex Regimental Association, led the campaign to restore the grave. He said: "The memorial was in a terrible state. We as the regiment, felt we had a responsibility to do something and for years it hadn't happened. This year the work was finally completed."

Woods' Weekly is written by Superintendent Brian T. Woods and is sent to Northside ISD staff every Monday to keep them updated on local and state education issues.
|August 18, 2014
Good morning and welcome to the start of the 2014-15 school year! I hope that you were able to enjoy time with your friends and family over the summer. Meredith, Aidan and I took a trip to the Alabama beaches and spent a long weekend in Chicago at a Cubs game and the wonderful museums. I also got to go fishing a few times – not much catching - but it was a great summer!
The summer certainly seemed to fly by and it was filled with many issues that impact us in Northside. I'll talk about some of those issues at convocations and through the year in this publication. However, one that I like to speak to at this time every year is the finalization of our budget. This process starts in January and ends in August.
I am very proud of the budget we are able to recommend as it adds teachers to accommodate growth and campus technology specialists to help teachers, administrators and other staff do their important work. We've also added campus custodians and curriculum and instruction specialists to work exclusively with our middle schools. The budget also improves our compensation package by a district-wide average of just over three percent. Many thanks to our Board for their support!
I was also pleased with the health insurance renewal that was approved this month. For 2015 we will continue with Blue Cross Blue Shield with a small increase in the cost to the total plan. The district will contribute over 70% of the cost to insure our employees. In this time of flux in the health insurance market, I was happy with this outcome.
At convocations and other opportunities, I'll spend time talking about the notion of grit or perseverance. I've read and thought a lot about this in recent weeks and looked at some of the research in this area. Grit is defined as working hard at something even when progress is not readily evident. It can also be looked at as having a long term view of the work to be done and not requiring instant gratification. Needless to say, I think this is an idea that is really important to discuss as we continue to strive for excellence.
I was recently sent the link to a TED Talk by Angela Lee Duckworth, a former public school teacher turned physiologist. Duckworth studies grit to see how it predicts future success and the results are
I'd also like to point out an opinion piece published in the Express-News that was written by NISD teacher Vanessa Eichler. Vanessa's son is getting ready to start school and her message really spoke to me as a parent and as an educator. Part of her message stated, "But, most important, teach him the value of his own failures. Help him to embrace mistakes instead of fearing them. Let him know that he will be challenged and pushed and blocked by outside forces, and help him learn to use his frustration to fuel his tenacity." What a great way to say that grit and perseverance are important!
Recently we received the news that the Region 20 nomination for Elementary Teacher of the Year is from Northside. Gina Reyna, a Gifted and Talented teacher at Wanke ES, is the honoree. This marks the sixth year in a row that Northside has had a nominee to the Texas Teacher of the Year competition.
Finally, our theme for this year is In Northside It's Personal. You will hear me talk about this later this week and read my thoughts on this notion throughout the year. To me, virtually everything we do well happens because it's personal to us. That is a great way to look at the work we do as educators. I hope that you have a fantastic start to the school year!
Have a great week!

West Indies' intimidatory tactics and painfully slow over-rates prompted the lawmakers to take away the fast bowler's most lethal weapon
December 18, 2010
Somewhere along the way - between Paul Terry's broken arm and Mike Gatting's pulped nose - the West Indies pace quartet of the 1980s picked up a reputation for intimidatory bowling. Other teams, when they weren't complaining about the blows inflicted on their bodies and psyche, started to point at West Indies' over-rate, which sometimes crawled along at just 70 a day.
Something had to give, and when it did it tilted the balance completely the other way. In 1991, the ICC introduced the "one bouncer per batsman per over" rule in an attempt to end the intimidation, and buck up the over-rates. Flat-track bullies rejoiced but fast bowlers, already condemned to bowling on shirtfronts in most parts of the world, weren't amused, and vociferous protests saw the law amended in 1994 to incorporate two bouncers per over. One-day cricket took much longer to listen to the bowlers' pleas, and it was only in 2001 that once bouncer per over was allowed.

Meet the Dream GirlsIt was a sleepy, uneventful morning in the BLU fort. Pyro was in the kitchen, cooking breakfast every morning as custom, humming some muffled melody to itself. Half of the crew was trickling into the dining room for Soldier's mandatory breakfast report time of 0800 sharp. He didn't mind that all of them were in their pajamas at least not for the moment. As long as they were in ship-shape half an hour later.Among the stragglers were Demoman (who was getting over a head splitting hangover), Heavy, Engineer, and Medic (who surprisingly rarely woke up earlier than he needed to). All were dressed in the standard sleep-wear black sweatpants and a loose, white tee-shirt with their team logo on the front and their symbols on the sleeves.Soldier and Scout woke up early to take morning jogs while it was still cool out, which was that only reason Scout would ever wake up before noon. Sniper was always fully dressed aviators and all before breakfast because it apparen
Breaking Point 11.5"You just gonna stare at me like that all day?"Engineer was stirring something up in the pot bubbling quietly on his portable hotplate. It'd become a habit to get up early and take care of the kid. As irritating as it was, the routine was still useful to him even now.Predictably, Scout's eyes hardened at the question. "I'm makin' sure you don't put no drugs in it."Engineer just sighed. "Trust me, boy, you ain't got nothin' to worry about." He checked the pot, and shook his head with a sigh. "Still ain't ready yet
Ah well."Scout watched with alarm as Engineer grabbed the set of keys hanging on the opposite side of the wall, and let himself into the tiny cage. "Wh
What are you doing?! Stay away from me!""Calm down," Engineer grunted. He held up a slender, glass thermometer. "I just wanna take your temperature, is all. Gotta make sure you're doin' alright." He sat next to the kid, and angled it towards his mouth."Fuck off." Scout pouted and pulled the blankets around hims
Breaking Point 6The following morning, Engineer went to check up on Scout, as always. The boy didn't even look at him as Engineer snapped on a pair of latex gloves and slid his hips on top of a bedpan. He pulled down the boy's boxers with an awkward, muttered apology, and left the cellar to give the poor kid some privacy. He retrieved it after a short while, washed it out, gave Scout a quick, modest sponge bath, and left again to retrieve Scout's breakfast.The first few days were hard. Scout used to try to talk to him, then. He would sob and plead to be released. Try to appeal to the better side of Engineer's nature. Would cling desperately to his every visit, would hail the man as a savior, and eventually even broke down to the point where he'd tearfully admit everything Spy was doing to him, unaware that Engineer already knew for the most part.Engineer, though, never spoke. He acted as if he didn't even listen. What else was he going to do? He couldn't save the kid. Not now, not ever. Removing him
Auf Wiedersehen, mein HeavyThey lay together, shivering in the dark, BLU's Medic in the lap of the RED Heavy. Blood was leaking out from Heavy at an alarming rate but he didn't seem to mind. Medic, on the other hand, was as pale as a ghost.He knew he could do nothing for the Heavy, for his love, for his Medi-gun worked only for his team. "M-mein Heafy." Medic let a tear fall from his eye as his hands wrapped themselves around Heavy's neck. "Do not cry, Doktor. It will be alright." His large hands found their way to his small lover's back, rubbing in circles, trying to bring some comfort.Heavy found his lips pressing to Medic's head who seemed as frightened as a puppy. Medic knew it wouldn't be alright. As trails of ruby red traveled along Heavy's face Medic found it was only right to wipe them away with his sleeve. "Doktor, I love you." "Ich liebe dich, Heafy."And that was all that was said. Medic watched in slow motion as the Russian blinked for the last time, as he drew his last breath.
Last RED standing'What a warm welcome!' the Engineer thought, jumping to the side to avoid being blasted into pieces by a rocket. He had arrived at 2Fort just some moments ago and it was obvious to him that this was definitely not the best time to start a new assignment. Everyone ran around busy but somewhat disorganized, trying to protect the intelligence. 'Seems as if they don't have a tactic at all
'The shrill voice of the Announcer, echoing through the whole base, interrupted his thoughts: "Mission ends in sixty seconds!" A look at his display told him everything about the current situation: Little red and blue lights - each one representing a member of team RED or BLU faded whenever somebody died, just to light up again as soon as the man respawned. From all he could see, his team wasn't performing very well. The right side of the display was dark nearly all the time. Well, at least they hadn't lost their intel until now

Broken Brotherhood: TF2The Red-clad Scottish demolitions expert shoved his eyelander into the dirt for support, straining to hold up both of his hands on the hilt to support his body weight. His body lurched a bit and blood coughed out of his mouth, already dead to the world. His head lifted upwards, driven only by anger and will, and roll it's only eye towards the Blue-dressed rocketeer across the bridge. Similarly, the soldier was keeled over, the pickaxe stuck in the ground a few feet in front of him as he vomited a mixture of blood and puke on the ground beneath him, getting the disgusting concoction all over his uniform, but still, he refused to give up. His head, too, lifted up by a mixture of hate and spirit, driven to destroy the one person he thought of as a friend. Even though they were enemies, even though they tried to kill each other numerous times, even though it went against Soldier's ethical policies that traitors were the worst kind of scum in the world, he still found a friend in the black

Secrets and shames they were running from, regretted actions they stood no chance of being able to undo.Some of them had been less discreet about it than others. More than once, hed overheard their Engineer having a hushed, desperate conversation with his estranged wife on their unreliable telephone lines, or witnessed the Heavy angrily tearing down anti-Communist propaganda displayed prominently by their Soldier, who himself had never fully come to terms with feeling utterly rejected by the country he loved.And some of them... some of them hadnt said anything at all, but it was what the failed to say that said the most like the way the Demoman, usually the most rambunctious member of the team, would suddenly become very quiet whenever Sniper began drunkenly complaining about his relationship with his parents.Even the Scout, barely out of boyhood, used his antagonistic arrogance as a thin

The Soldier'd probably punched out more cops on a regular basis than was good for anyone- it was only by mercy of their contracts that they rarely spent more than a night behind bars. They were probably in for a hell of a scolding by their respective bosses later, though.The BLU Soldier simply huffed, shrugging, and wiped his bloody knuckles on the sleeve of his jacket, leaving a dark purple stain as red met blue."Well, what the hell'd you expect?""Could've always gone someplace else.""No way.

A Guide to Writing DialogueWhat is dialogue, exactly? The definition from Merriam-Webster's dictionary was several lines long, so I shall summarize it in a short sentence for the sake of the readers; it's the writing that illustrates conversations between two or more characters in a story. We read and hear it all around us, but creating it in your own work can be a challenge. However, if you find dialogue an obstacle in your writing, then don't push the panic button. In this tutorial, you'll find by analyzing what dialogue can do and how to use it, you can turn your greatest fear into your greatest ally in your story.What dialogue isLike I've asserted before, dialogue is basically what the characters are saying to each other. It can be found in multiple mediums such as books, movies, comics, video games, etc. We even engage in dialogue daily without even thinking. When you talk to your best friend, a co-worker, or even your dog, you create dialogue. It's exchang
