Hello, I'm an eBook!
ATTENTION: This item is an eBook. It can be read on iOS, Android, MAC and PC's with a supported eReader. It is not a physical book. eBooks are available via download immediately after you've checked out.
This item will be downloaded electronically after checkout.
Literary texts and buildings have always represented space, narrated cultural and political values, and functioned as sites of personal and collective identity. In the twentieth century, new forms of narrative have represented cultural modernity, political idealism and architectural innovation. Writing the Modern City explores the diverse and fascinating relationships between literature, architecture and modernity and considers how they have shaped the world today.
This collection of thirteen original essays examines the ways in which literature and architecture have shaped a range of recognisably 'modern' identities. It focuses on the cultural connections between prose narratives - the novel, short stories, autobiography, crime and science fiction - and a range of urban environments, from the city apartment and river to the colonial house and the utopian city. It explores how the themes of memory, nation and identity have been represented in both literary and architectural works in the aftermath of early twentieth-century conflict; how the cultural movements of modernism and postmodernism have affected notions of canonicity and genre in the creation of books and buildings; and how and why literary and architectural narratives are influenced by each other's formal properties and styles.
The book breaks new ground in its exclusive focus on modern narrative and urban space. The essays examine texts and spaces that have both unsettled traditional definitions of literature and architecture and reflected and shaped modern identities: sexual, domestic, professional and national. It is essential reading for students and researchers of literature, cultural studies, cultural geography, art history and architectural history.

My week-long staycation starts TODAY! Actually, I just got home from work, and I am super wired with excitement over an entire week off without having to think about work. Here is my plan:
Image from ihasahotdog.com
Okay, maybe that is not entirely accurate. I'm too much of a spaz of a human being to TRULY do nothing, but I love the idea of having a whole week of doing whatever I want whenever I want. Other than my saxophone lesson on Tuesday, I have no structured plans. Here are my plans for my staycation, in no particular order:
1) Clean house.
2) Clean yard (yikes!).
3) Have a movie/T.V. day (and probably order pizza from my favorite pizza joint).
4) Practice my sax at least an hour a day.
5) Go to kickboxing at least twice.
6) Do active things with friends (walks, bike rides, etc.).
7) Go to the beach at least once.
8) Go to the Saint Paul Irish Fair next weekend (my mother is a performer!).
9) FINALLY post some Nerdrageous Blog! entries.
10) Read, read, and read some more.
Other than that, there will be lots of down time, and I will just fill in the time however I please. I know how spoiled I am to live by myself and get to do whatever I want, but I promise to at least get off my ass.
There have been some twinges of impatience this week with returning to kickboxing. I just feel so fat and out of shape being around the very fit fighters at my gym, as much as I try to convince myself that I belong there as much as they do. Even though I've lost nearly 40 pounds as of this week, I felt fat and gross. I almost wanted to cry one day after leaving the gym. Nobody was mean to me, nothing happened...it was just those thoughts creeping in: "I never should have gained the weight back." "Of course you're embarrassed, just look at you." "I want to be at my goal weight right NOW."
I know these thoughts are not true. I know they are unreasonable. But it kind of goes to show how joy may not be the only feeling as the scale goes down.
It's funny how we can see the number on the scale go down, yet be a bit oblivious to the changes in our bodies. It seems like one day clothing is super tight, and the next, it's practically falling off. I have been wearing the same workout pants since I started this journey almost 40 pounds ago. This week, during kickboxing, my pants actually started to fall off. Needless to say, trying to pull up your pants while wearing big bulky boxing gloves is neither graceful nor discrete. It got to the point where I just had to giggle at myself during class as I fought harder to keep my pants on than I was fighting with my opponent. I looked in the mirror at the gym, and saw how really baggy my pants are. So I bought a new pair of shorts (yes, shorts) this week. Hopefully then I'll just show off my mad kicking skills, and not my ass.
I can either choose to acknowledge and accept the changes in my body, or I can wait for my clothes to fall off before I realize what is happening. I know that, in the long run, it does not matter that I weigh 258 pounds right now. When I walked into my kickboxing gym again in February, I weighed over 290 pounds. For some reason, this week I had felt as though I hadn't gotten anywhere. All I have to do is put on those huge pants and remember that they were form-fitting a few months ago. I also have to remember that next summer, at this time, I will probably be near or at my goal weight. My routine will be no different than it is now, and I have to remember that I am just as valid an athlete now as I will be then.
On a more cheerful note, my week-long staycation starts tomorrow. There will be a lot of kickboxing and working out going on. I will do my best to keep my pants on...but I can't make any big promises.
Today was a day of fun, a day of good teachers, and a day of working out until I almost vomited. Funny, that's when I get the biggest grin on my face...
I had today off of work, and I had a great day. I started the day with a 15 minute Pilates session. What a great way to wake up! Then I practiced my saxophone for about an hour, then had my lesson. Since I'm starting to get to know my teacher better, I'm a little less uptight around him now. We joked around a lot today and my playing wasn't too gawd-awful. He seemed pleased with my playing today, and hopefully he could tell I had been practicing a lot this past week.
And then, I went to my first kickboxing class in well over a year. I was trying to remember the last time I was able to do kickboxing, and I believe it was in February of 2010. Needless to say, it's been a while. Since my main trainer is getting ready for his fight this upcoming Saturday, the instructor tonight was one of my other favorite teachers, Team U.S.A. Kickboxing coach Justin Whiley. I have always liked his teaching style--just the right amount of challenge while at the same time never overdoing it. He'll be running classes more often now, so I'll have the opportunity to learn from him and hopefully improve my kicking and punching.

I'm not going to lie, I was a little nervous about going to the class. What if I look stupid? What if everyone thinks I'm fat? What if no one will be my partner? What if I've totally forgotten how to kick? It really was ridiculous. I steered myself towards the beginners since I was just coming back, but Justin tapped me on the shoulder, shook his head, and pointed me to the other end of the mat with the advanced people. I paired up with a guy, which was nice since some of the women at the gym are very clique-y. We had a great workout, and I kept up okay until we did sequential kicks, which my leg just wouldn't tolerate. That's okay; I was very happy to be able to get through the whole hour. The gym was like a sauna, though--so I don't think I did too bad for working out in the 90 degree heat! And nothing works really deeply into my abs like kickboxing--I could feel it the day after my kickboxing workout earlier this week, and I'm sure I will feel it tomorrow. Hopefully soon I will be able to SEE it...
Now I am beat--time for a date with a recliner, the T.V., kitties, and a big bowl of popcorn drizzled with olive oil. What a day!
SANDIEGOJOHN has been posting some "retro" blogs referring to blogs he's written in the past about his journey. I haven't been around long enough to have "retro" blogs yet, but I do think that a major benefit of blogging is being able to look back. There are those words we write that change our whole lives in the very act of writing them out. I try to read as many of my SparkFriends' blogs as possible every day, and even if I don't always comment, I'm good friends with the "Like" button.
What are your personal favorites that you've written? Please share below or post a blog sharing your favorites and let me know. I would love to see the blogs that my SparkPeeps are really proud of and that have really helped seed some changes.

Oh, and if you don't have any favorite blogs you've written, go write one now!
As of this week, I am officially less than 100 pounds from my goal weight. I was expecting backlash on the scale this week after dropping 6 pounds last week, but instead I lost 1/2 pound. I guess I dropped a bunch of water weight last week. Anyways, YAY, 36.6 pounds down, 99.4 pounds to GOAL! Having less than 100 pounds to go seems very doable, although since I've been taking it pretty slowly, I look back and go, "Wow, I've lost 36 pounds already?" Time flies...
July has probably been my best month yet since I started on SparkPeople--oh, and my official 1 year SparkVersary is August 21st, so I'm excited to celebrate that. But anyways, I've just felt such a shift in my mindset over the past month that really pleases me. I feel very balanced, especially with my eating. If I overeat, I don't freak out, which halts the overeating. If I'm less hungry on some days (and not being ravenous at every moment is still a little unsettling in some ways), then I don't eat as much. And yesterday, I ate what I wanted throughout the day, and then tracked at night. I ate within my calorie range and I was happy that my appetite did that naturally. The day even included eating at a pizza place, where I got a solo pizza and a big Greek salad. Since the calorie range that I have now will be close to my maintenance range, I'm glad to see that I can eat like a normal person without constantly arguing and fighting with myself.
I completed Mesocycle 1 of Cathe Freidrich's Shock Training System (STS), and now I have a week off before I start the next mesocyle. I lost nearly an inch off of each of my arms--the most in a month since starting this journey! I have also been able to do a lot more lower body stuff, including kettlebells. I am not ready to lift weights yet for my lower body (still going to let my knee heal), but Pilates and kettlebells have been shaping my legs nicely.
My favorite thing that happened this month was that I found I am able to kick and my knee and legs are strong enough to kickboxing again. I will be returning to kickboxing and Muay Thai (see yesterday's blog). Nothing (NOTHING!) whipped me into shape like kickboxing. This time around, I won't be training for Olympic-distance triathlons while also doing intense kickboxing training, so hopefully, my body will be happier with me.
My workout scheme for August will look like this:
kickboxing/Muay Thai 3-4 days/week
STS upper body workout 2 days/week
kettlebells 2 days/week
Pilates 3 days/week
biking 2-3 days/week
swimming 1-2 days/week
walking whenever possible
yoga most days
Whew! It's been a long road to get back to this point and this level of exercise/training, but I'm glad to be back!
Hope everyone has a great plan for August!

Jesse Tinsley SR photo: Don Swank dots some glue on a "floragraph" image of his son Drew at Sacred Heart Medical Center while his daughters Rowee (cq), left, and Tara, second from left, and wife Patti look on. (SR photo: Jesse Tinsley)
The memory of Drew Swank (inset photo) will be celebrated in the New Year amid a whirl of flowers and tears. His death in the aftermath of a 2009 high school football game may have robbed his family of his companionship and promise, yet good has come from the tragedy. Surgeons were able to collect organs from Drew's body and successfully transplant them into people desperate to live. These gifts will be honored in the 2012 Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena, Calif., on Jan. 2. Artists have created what they call a "floragraph," an organic portrait of the 17-year-old made of leaves and seeds, coffee grounds and flowers. It will be displayed alongside 71 other portraits as the centerpiece of the Donate Life float that will be constructed of thousands of roses and other flowers. Drew's former classmates, friends, family and medical providers at Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center had lunch and shared memories on Friday/John Stucke, SR. More here.
Question: Has anyone in your family benefitted by an organ donation? And/or: Are you an organ donor?

FROZEN Soundtrack Hits #1 On Billboard Chart, Besting Beyonce
The soundtrack for Disney's super-successful animated movie musical FROZEN has officially hit #1 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums charts, knocking Beyonce's most recent self-titled release out of the top spot.
The final numbers are in and the FROZEN soundtrack has sold over 165,000 copies, beating Beyonce's 130,000.
Additionally, Disney's FROZEN is currently the #1 film in the country, as well.
BroadwayWorld also reported earlier today that Idina Menzel's "Let It Go" from the film has cracked the iTunes Top 20 and Billboard Hot 100, with even more information on the matter available here.
The official synopsis for FROZEN is as follows: "Fearless optimist Anna (voice of Kristen Bell) sets off on an epic journey-teaming up with rugged mountain man Kristoff (voice of Jonathan Groff) and his loyal reindeer Sven-to find her sister Elsa (voice of Idina Menzel), whose icy powers have trapped the kingdom of Arendelle in eternal winter. Encountering Everest-like conditions, mystical trolls and a hilarious snowman named Olaf (voice of Josh Gad), Anna and Kristoff battle the elements in a race to save the kingdom."
FROZEN is directed by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, with a screenplay by Jennifer Lee and Shane Morris based on the Hans Christian Andersen story THE SNOW QUEEN. FROZEN stars the voice talents of Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, Jonathan Groff, Santino Fontana, Josh Gad and more.
FROZEN was released in the US on November 27 and is currently in theaters nationwide.

The U.S. said Wednesday that despite the violence and troubles that have engulfed Cairo since Mohamed Morsi's ouster in July, Washington is looking to work on its relationship with Cairo.
Tunisia has appointed a new commission to oversee elections in 2014 as part of its efforts to form a transitional, independent government.

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has not named a starter at running back for Monday Night Football against the Kansas City Chiefs. Instead, he will favor whoever among Rashard Mendenhall, Jonathan Dwyer and Isaac Redman is running the ball well, according to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.
Dwyer and Mendenhall were inactive last week, allowing Redman to rush for 147 yards and a touchdown on 26 carries in a win over the New York Giants. Dywer (quad) is expected to play Monday, and Mendenhall (Achilles') will see a heavier workload in practice but is still questionable.
Fantasy Impact: The Steelers' running back situation remains extremely muddy, especially since all three backs have performed well at different times recently. Each one has racked up over 100 total yards in a game sometime in the last four weeks.
Keep an eye on injury reports this week. If a feature back emerges, he is worth starting in standard leagues against a bad Chiefs defense. Until then, you're playing with fire by moving Redman, Dwyer or Mendenhall into your starting lineup.

Stock-market volatility is likely to be around for a while. That's why Ben Fischer, managing director and portfolio manager at Allianz Global Investors, believes "you have to grit your teeth and realize that fundamentals don't favor a collapse; they favor stability over the long term." Thus, he recommends that investors not try to time the market, but instead wait it out by sticking to an allocation of high-quality, dividend-paying stocks that have the ability to raise payouts over time.
Meanwhile, though, with a fiscal-cliff resolution still elusive, many companies are rushing to accelerate payouts and distribute special dividends by Dec. 31 to potentially help investors save on taxes. Thomson Reuters corporate-earnings research analyst Greg Harrison thinks that could be problematic. In a Dec. 11 report, he observes that the majority of special-dividend issuers will have to borrow to make those payouts. In some cases, that could fundamentally alter capital structure and perhaps lead to more risk and lower creditworthiness. So be watchful.
Special dividends were at a 33-year high through Dec. 12, according to Howard Silverblatt, senior index analyst at S&P Dow Jones Indices. Extras through the first eight trading days of December posted a 136% jump over the number declared in all of December 2011 (335 versus 142).
The beat goes on. Limited Brands (ticker: LTD), which over the past roughly two and a half years has distributed $8 a share via five bonus dividends, declared another one last Monday, in the amount of $3 and worth $865.2 million in total. It will be paid Dec. 26, and the ex-dividend date is Dec. 18.
The company, whose brands include Victoria's Secret, Bath & Body Works, and Henri Bendel, among others, sweetened its regular quarterly dividend by 25% in January (as reported in this space), to 25 cents a share, for a current yield of 2%. Payouts have been ongoing since 1970. Traded on the New York Stock Exchange, the shares set a 52-week high of $52.50 on Dec. 3.
Oliver Chen, an analyst at Citi Investment Research, forecast a bonus dividend earlier this month in a client note, citing Limited's strong sales results since August and its impressive capital structure. He rates the stock Buy, with a $60 price target.

One of the North York Moors National Park's landmark hotels, The Milburn Arms at Rosedale Abbey, has re-opened after lying empty and neglected for five years.
Dating back to 1776, the one time coaching inn has undergone a massive refurbishment by its new owners, Danby Castle Ltd, who will now host weddings at the historic castle and hotel.
Company directors Carolyn and Duncan Bavister have given the hotel a multi-thousand pound facelift to its 12 bedrooms – all named after well-known villages in the National Park – and 62-cover restaurant.
The aim is for weddings to be held at the castle, whose most famous one-time resident was Katherine Parr, one of Henry VIII's six wives, and for guests to stay at the luxury accommodation at the Milburn Arms.
"Danby Castle has proved a huge success story," said Carolyn. "We had been looking for another suitable venue as we don't have any accommodation at the castle. We wanted to ensure that we would find somewhere located close to Danby and be able to offer a totally different style of wedding."
Picture shows Duncan and Carolyn Bavister, owners of The Milburn Arms.

Objective: General practitioners (GPs) play an integral role in addressing the psychological needs of palliative care patients and their families. This qualitative study investigated psychosocial issues faced by GPs in the management of patients receiving palliative care and investigated the themes relevant to the psychosocial care of dying patients.
Method: Fifteen general practitioners whose patient had been recently referred to the Mt. Olivet Palliative Home Care Services in Brisbane participated in an individual case review discussions guided by key questions within a semistructured format. These interviews focused on the psychosocial aspects of care and management of the referred patient, including aspects of the doctor/patient relationship, experience of delivering diagnosis and prognosis, addressing the psychological concerns of the patients' family, and the doctors' personal experiences, reactions, and responses. Qualitative analysis was conducted on the transcripts of these interviews.
Results: The significant themes that emerged related to perceived barriers to exploration of emotional concerns, including spiritual issues, and the discussion of prognosis and dying, the perception of patients' responses/coping styles, and the GP's personal experience of the care (usually expressed in terms of identification with patient).
Significance of results: The findings indicate the significant challenges facing clinicians in discussions with patients and families about death, to exploring the patient's emotional responses to terminal illness and spiritual concerns for the patient and family. These qualitative date indicate important tasks in the training and clinical support for doctors providing palliative care.

UPDATE: Jefferies & Company Reiterates Buy Rating, Lowers PT on Ariad Pharmaceuticals
In a report published Monday, Jefferies & Company reiterated its Buy rating on Ariad Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ARIA), but lowered its price target from $27.00 to $23.00.
Jefferies & Company noted, "FDA approves Iclusig in CML/Ph+ ALL pts resistant/intolerant to TKIs, ~3 months earlier (PDUFA date of 3/27/13). Boxed warning on previously undisclosed safety issues (potential liver toxicity, arterial thrombosis) is surprising, although it's hard to know whether these are due to Iclusig, underlying disease, or both given single-arm PACE trial (& 1st-line EPIC interim data comparing ponatinib to imatinib expected ~1H14)."
Ariad Pharmaceuticals closed on Friday at $18.93.

The position of superintendent was on the agenda when the Beaumont school board went into closed session tonight (Tuesday night). When the board came out of closed session, board President Susie Lara said there was nothing to report.
"We're still working on a couple of issues," she said.
Lara said this item will be placed on the next board meeting agenda. The board's next regularly scheduled meeting is Tuesday, Sept. 25. That's two weeks from now.
The district's superintendent, Barry Kayrell, is preparing to leave for Hemet to head up the schools in that city. Lara told me on Friday that the board does not want to leave his position in Beaumont vacant for long.
"We're working on a plan," she said at the time.
Kayrell's target start date in Hemet is Oct. 1.

Great quality bedding at a great price. Would order from overstock again. It was easy and my order arrived on time. My daughter loves her new quilt and we will be buying more items from overstock to decorate her room.
It's perfect. Nice, lightweight, simple enough. She's made her bed every day since we put it on.
I preferred a warmer quilt but didn't expect one so have a blanket under, but the pale yellow walls in my bedroom with gray and black accessories look very very good with this quilt set to bring out some spark! The hallway leading into my bedroom and master bath are both light gray so walking into my bedroom is very eye pleasing.
We have a 13ft Camping Trailer. We painted the walls a soft Gray, but I wanted someting to give it pazazz. This quilt set, did it. It is contemporary, colorfull and happy. Our bed is a full size, but after looking at the dimensions of this quilt, I ordered the twin size, and it fits beautifully. I also love the little decorator pillow, that comes with it. I would recommend to anyone.
Nice quilt set the material is soft feels good. I got it for my grandaughter and she loves it looks real nice in her room
I receive a compliment on this quilt set every time someone comes over to our new house and looks around. It is nice and soft.
This set was much nicer than I expected. The quilt has a sturdy weight and lays beautifully on the bed. The shams are also quilted and finish the bed with a clean look.
Purchase before they run out! I read reviews before purchasing items, and this tops them all! Definitely a 5 out of 5, and why you may ask? First of all, the material is so durable and SOFT! We are in a humid and hot climate and this comforter is perfect, not too hot at all! The colors are EXACTLY like the photos. You can bank on it! The quality, 10 out of 10! I washed my comforter in cold gentle cycle using Woolite and dried on delicate low cycle and it turned out like new. We have dogs and have to wash comforters almost monthly so this is perfect. Our furniture is tan wicker and walls are a soft yellow so this is perfect.
We returned this comforter set on basis of colors not as shown in the online description. We are graphics people, so our monitors are calibrated for color accuracy, by the way. Aside from a somewhat polyester-feel in the shell fabric, which is honest, in that it is in fact polyester, I have no other criticisms.
Just received it yesterday. Pretty quick shipment. The quilt is very soft to the touch. I have a queen- sized bed, so I had to order the full/queen size. The only problem that I have with ordering a combination size like that, is that the size is closer to a full than a queen size quilt. I wish that the quilt came in a size queen by itself. Also the shams are for a standard size pillow (which would be on a full-sized bed). My pillows are queen-sized for suite a queen bed. Overall, the quilt set is quite lovely.

Japanese carrier All Nippon Airways' (ANA) swung to a net loss of yen (Y) 6.6 billion ($67.2 million) for the fiscal first quarter of 2013 compared with a profit of Y600 million for the same period a year earlier.
For the quarter to 30 June, operating revenues increased by 4.4% year on year to Y358 billion, while operating costs rose by 9.6% to Y364 billion.

Domestic passenger revenue decreased by 1.3% to Y147 billion while international passenger revenue increased by 7.5% to Y89.5 billion.
In terms of passenger traffic, domestic RPKs rose by 2.4% while international RPKs grew by 2.1%. Domestic passenger numbers climbed 2% to 9.69 million and international passenger numbers fell by 9.8% to 1.44 million.

The distinctive body style of the Vision Tour incorporates a full fixed fairing with the set-up of the bike fixed for touring, thanks to the side-storage compartments, and a lockable trunk with 29 gallons serving as extra cargo space. At the trunk of the Vision Tour is a passenger backrest with additional audio speakers incorporated to pair with the ones integrated in the fairing.

Instead, a 9-year-old girl named Vivienne Harr, actor Patrick Stewart and Boston Police Department's Cheryl Fiandaca did the honors on the NYSE trading floor.
Twitter allowed the trio to do so because it wanted to show appreciation for its users.
Harr wrote Biz Stone a note thanking him for the opportunity, and for Twitter. He posted the "treasure" of a note to Instagram. It was spotted by The Next Web.
"With Twitter, you don't have to be big or powerful to change the world," Harr wrote. "You can be just like me!!"
Harr has established a lemonade stand and a movement called Make a Stand. The proceeds help fight slavery.

Want to save a piece of New Harmony School history before the doors are closed?
It's now possible, and hundreds of items are now available to be purchased.
All you have to do is access the online auction through the school corporation's website, where it runs similar to an eBay-type website. There are over 700 items up for grabs. Memorabilia such as candles from some past proms, some teddy bears from the kindergarten classes and various kinds of uniforms from the different sports.
The money raised from the auction will go to the New Harmony School Foundation, which will support area students after the school closes.
Superintendent Fran Theole says these were items they simply found in storage at the school and they're anxious to find homes for these items.
"Any of these things would be good remembrances of their time here, when they played on those teams or when they participated in band or any other activities," Thoele said.
All of the items have a five dollar minimum and auctioneers 14 News spoke with Thursday say they expect there will be some bidding wars.

|I have a metal ironing board from the 80's ,,, it's a glossy finish (cornflower blue) with a few rust spots, but overall in great shape. I'd like to spray paint it white. This will be my first metal paint job, so I need input regarding the proper steps (from start to finish), along with any product recommedations. Thanks!!
Follow-Up Postings:
|I spray paint all sorts of things. This is the kind of project that I would do without a lot of prep. Here's what I suggest, but I'm not an expert:
Get a can of spray paint suitable for metal. Lightly sand the metal with sandpaper, sanding more where the rust is, wipe off the grit, and then spray according to the directions on the can.
Here is a link that might be useful: Spray painting metal
|Use a rust-reformer primer.

kaa and runoone day runo was walking to the beach in her orange two piece bikini but oddly she was wearing her brown high heel shoes and orange and white striped socks. She she stopped to rest under a rather large tree, up in the tree was none other than the hypnotic snake kaa who was just waking up from a nap. When he saw Runo spirals went thrugh his eyes and he licked his lips. Runo looked up only to see a gaint snake head coming right towards her. At first she was scared but then she was curios "Wh--who are yo-you" she said "Well hello there little girl-cub, I am kaa the ssssnake do not worry I wont hurt you" "Oh hi my name is RUno" she said feeling less scared. All of a sudden runo yawned, this was kaas chance. "You look tired" He said letting two rings go through his eyes. Runo failed to look away, then she let out an even bigger yawn. "Yeah welll I guess so" she said sleepily "WOuld you like to come up to my tree and ressssst?" Right now runo didnt care what happened "w
kaa and gwen the storyOne night in August, gwen was out night watching while Ben and Grampa were sleeping. She stopped to lokk at an owl under a rather large tree, this tree belong to none othe rthan the snake kaa. Kaa who had seen the girl walking hissed to sooth her. She turned around only to see a very large snake head coming towards her. "Hello there girl-cub" he said "whoah a talking snake!". "Yessss i have the ability to talk always have" "You look tired" He said letting a few rings go through her eyes. She gave a slight yawn "Yeah I guess so" "Would you like to come up into my tree to rest?" Yes I would " she said "OK but could you take off your sneakers please , Im trying to keep it clean up there.'' "Well OK" she said as kaa wrapped a coil around Gwen`s waist, his tail crept down her leg and untied her sneakers. She giggled as his tail went down her leg. "Do my coils tickle you?" "A little bit" she said. When her sneakers were all untied kaa lifted her out of them revealing her rainbow toe socks "c
Kaa and AnnabethSince Medusa still had a grudge against Annabeth, she sent Kaa to bring Annabeth to her. When Kaa found Annabeth she was sleeping in her bikini alone in her cabin. Kaa had to get her to open her eyes, he noticed her feet were sticking out of the blanket. Then he wrapped a coil around her ankles and took off her socks, he then began tickling her feet. At fist she just giggled but then she burst into laughter. Kaa`s eyes began swirling and Annabeth`s eyes soon mirrored, after a while a pinging sound could be heard in her mind. "Lets go" said Kaa as Annabeth put her shoes and socks on. When Annabeth woke from the trance, she could not move because she was hanging from a ceiling in a cocoon of coils. "uh were am I" "Your in my home" said a familiar voice, she looked up only to see Medusa standing there with Kaa hovering near her, Medusa was wearing her sun glasses not wanting to turn her to stone just yet. "What do you want Medusa?" "oh just getting some revenge". She

"I have the power to hypnotize people to do whatever Iwant" "oh sweet, but what about them" She said pionting to may and Dawn "Oh Ill get them" Serena said slithering over and proping them up with her coils "wakey, wakey" then may and Dawn open there eyes just as Serenas started swirling beautiful colors. Suprised both of them quickly fell under the trance and soon they both heard a ping go through there minds and big dopey smiles formed on there faces. Misty giggled "ok" said serena "you will both fall asleep untill we reutrn" both noded and fell asleep, Misty got her shoes on and they left. When they got there Serena hid in some cieling pipes and Misty returned withher sisters and looked a
Ssssubmit..."Okay, so you can talk. So what?" Cindy asked tartly, as if being able to speak wasn't anything special."That doessssn't sssuprissse you?" Kaa asked, suprised."Apperently not. Now why not leave me alone?" Cindy said shortly, sitting on her bed and folding her arms stubbornly. Cindy had long blond hair that reached her shoulder blades and bright blue eyes. Her body was slender and shapely. But she had an attitude, which sometimes either scared people or got her into trouble.Kaa was a bit puzzled. This girl wasn't interested in him at all, nor was she frightened. She only wanted him gone. What could he do?"Well, what are you waiting for? Go slither into someone else's bed for a nap!" Cindy snapped at him impatiently. But that actually gave Kaa an idea. A nap..."Ssssay..." Kaa hissed seductively, his eyes narrowing at Cindy."Why don't you take a nap?" Kaa brought his large head up to Cindy's, smirking as if he knew something she didn't."Oh shut up! I'm not tired!" Cindy growled, sc
Carrie and Kaa Part 1"Honey, we're leaving now. Aunt Brenda will be in to check on you every night at 9. You're going to be a good girl, right?" Carrie's mom said."Of course, mom." replied Carrie.Carrie was only 12 the first time her parents left her alone at the house. She was excited to have the house to herself. "And remember, no going to the river unless you call Uncle Drew and have him go with you." her mom added."Fine, goodbe mom." she said."Goodbye, sweetheart." her mom said as she blew a kiss.Finally, Carrie was all alone. She could do whatever she wanted. "All right!" she thought to herself. "I'm going to watch R-rated movies, eat a lot of ice cream, and go to the river whenever I want."Carrie went and put on a bikini, a tank-top, and a skirt and started her way down to the river. Her mother would never let her go alone. "Too many bad thing
Kaa companyDeep in the jungles of India rested one of the most fantastic and massive serpents of all time. The mighty snake's name was Kaa, who not only had almost 50 feet of thick, muscular coils that no land animal could resist, but held the fabled power of hypnosis. With his hypnotic abilities he could turn the most fierce fighter into a drooling slave. Kaa particularly enjoyed doing that with his food, right before swallowing it whole and still alive. But in the canopy of the rainforrest he was quite full, and wouldn't need to eat again for a time. Kaa was, unfortunately, bored at the moment. He lay curled up in loops among the tree branches, watching flies lazily."Hmph... Why mussst the jungle be sssso boring?" he wondered, his tongue flicking lazily. But then something caught his attention. A faint odor was in the air, something very distinct. Kaa raised his large head, flicking his tongue more rapidly now, his curiosity piqued."What isss thisss?" Kaa murred to himself, smiling a bit. The
Kaa's new friend...Young Hinata was enjoying herself while swimming in a hotel lake on the borders of the jungle. The hotel, not being able to afford to build a pool enclosed with cement, just used the natural pond and river for guests to use. Hinata however, underestimated the strength of the current of the river... Before she knew it, she was being swept away downriver quickly, pulling her deep into the heart of the jungle.Further downstream was a massive predator and feared by all animals in the jungle. The mighty serpent Kaa was hanging above the river on a thick tree branch, watching the water for tasty fish. But to his surprise he saw something else coming downstream towards him quite quickly. To his surprise and delight he found that it was a young, pretty bikini clad female. With speed and strength he darted his tail into the water at her and plucked Hinata out of the water, having his tail wrap around her rear and hips several times to get a firm grip.Hinata coughed, confused. How had she gott
Kaa and Lauren part 2There she was all wrapped up and hypnotized by Kaa the snake. Kaa giggled and raised her into the tree so he can i fun with her. Kaa then put her down on the strongest tree branch so it can support her and Kaa. Lauren still waiting for a oder from her master. Kaa smiled and as he talk he unwound his coils around her. "Do you want to play other game Lauren?" Kaa asked playing with her hair. "Yessssssssss." she said sleepily enjoying kaa plaiyng with her hair. "Then follow me." as kaa used his tail to show to follow him. She nod and started to walk. then they made to the end of the branch and Kaa stop her with his tail touching her head and said "hold still please." as he made coil step for her to follow. As Lauren took each step, Kaa would massage her feet. She moaned alittle enjoying it as Kaa giggled at her. He then let her slid down on her back and slowed rock her. the more he did this the more she was tried and she yawned. Kaa giggled at her cute yawn. Then let go down a slid of coi
Lost and FoundLost and FoundBy Kaafan((This Story is based off an RP a friend and I had))It was a dark night in the jungle. The moon was high in the sky, lighting up the treetops. On one such tree, a large snake was resting. The snakes name was Kaa, a large python over thirty feet in length. Along with his strength and size, Kaa had a few other...special... abilities. Kaa often slept in this tree, watching the nearby path. This path was one that humans often traveled, using them to get from one village to another. This particular night Kaa was very hungry. It had been months since his last meal and he needed to eat something. He figured that humans would be easy targets for him, as they often walked through here very unaware of their surroundings.Kaas hunch was right. Walking down the path was a young girl. Her name was Tina, a very shy girl who appeared to be frightened and lost. She looked to be around 10 years old and was relatively small. This was someone Kaa could very easily coil up.
Kaa and Selena Part 1Deep in the jungle a young girl of about 17 years old was walking through the dense foliage. She was wearing a bright greenbikini, she had big breasts, and the sexiest legs in the world. Her name was Selena Gomez. To the human world she was thegirlfriend of Justin Bieber and the staar of "Wizards of Waverly Place". Untortunately, she was walking in the territory ofKaa the snake. While Kaa wasn't a pop star of actor, he was famous for his uncanny hypnotic powers. He could hypnotize anyhuman no matter how strong their will power was. Kaa was also famous for his long body. He could talk as well. This was theday that Selena Gomez fell to the power of Kaa the snake.Selena looked up at the sun. She took a survival class when she was younger and judged the time to be around 3:00 pm. AsSelena kept walking, she did not notice that she was being hevily watched by Kaa."I musssst have her in my coilssss." Kaa said with and evil gleam in his eyes.Selena decided to stop and rest for a bit.
Kaa's LoveHinata lay down on her cot in her tent, no blanket, for it was too hot in the jungle for that. She only cuddled herself to her pillow and snoozed from a hard day of traveling in the jungle. All were tired in her group and she retired to her tent directly after having eaten her dinner. Not long after everyone else also. retired to their tents. Hinata had her's to herself, so she had no one to bother her. Or so she thought. The jungle was filled with animals. And where there are lots of animals, there are predators. Hinata didn't know it, but a very large predator had selected her to be its next meal, yet no one in the camp knew that the animal was around.Kaa was nestled up high in his tree perch, his sinuous coils looped around branches and tree trunks. Despite his bulk, he was nearly invisible in the jungle thanks to his color pattern. Out of all of the humans that Kaa had spied around the campfire while they ate, Hinata was the best. She wasn't too large or too thin. Lovely feminine
kaa and hinata part 2-with Hinata-Hinata was still admiring the beauty of the flower where she saw one specific nonglowing flower. It was large and looked like it had four light purple petals enclosed into a large round ball, but she couldn't make much of the details to it for the background was black with white large but thin strands of some kind of material in the form of a spiders web. Upon seeing the large spider's web she backed away slowly with fear, yet because she was too distracted with the web she tripped landing on her bottom crushing a large broken branch which created a sound.At first nothing happened but the plant started to shift back and forth; tall black hiary legs sprouted out behind the enclosed flower and eyes started to appear. It shifted itself off the webb onto the floor and started to crawl at her slowly. She couldn't move for some reason it seemed all of her muscles where frozen which made it easier to the spider to reach closer. A loud chuckle came out of the trees causing the s
kaa and jessicaOne day in gorm Jessica was walking around and disided to rest under a large tree. Up in the tree was the hypnotic snake Kaa, Kaa had just woken up from a nap and was very hungry. When Kaa realized that a girl had found her way under his tree he was delighted "oh boy a nissssse nap, a playful toy, and a great meal" he said as he headed down ,his eyes spiraling like mad. "hello there" Kaa siad as he came to the little girl, "what the uuuuuhhh" Jessica was cut off when her eyes met Kaa`s spirals "yesssssssssss look into my eyessssssssss" "Whaat are ...doing" "bringing you pure blissssss". When Kaa was eyelevel with her he began to shake his head back and forth, then he brought his tail down and began swinging it like a pengilum in front of her. With that it was all to much for her and finally a ping could be heard in the back of her head. "Ah you are now mine" "I am now your`s" Jessice said dumnly. Then Kaa looped a coil around Jessica`s waist and hoisted her up into his tree.
