How can I keep updated with your events?
While we try to update the website as much as possible it is sometimes easier for us to update a social web page first followed by the website later therefore we suggest you join one or more of the following social websites to keep up to date as possible with our events: Facebook | Twitter
Rules on posting on our twitter and Facebook pages
You may have noticed a quick revamp of our website over the last weekend with references to certain tv shows removed. We ask you not to mention any TV shows or characters played by actors on our Facebook page. If you are referring to one of our unofficial conventions please use the convention name only.
How much does it cost to attend one of your Conventions?
All information regarding Convention Tickets can be found on the relevant homepage of each event.
What kind of tickets do you offer?
We currently offer ONE type of ticket for most of our conventions, the basic package we call Emerald, we also offer discount bundles of extras such as photographs and autographs these are called Diamond Upgrades, on rare occasions we may change the contents of your discount package due to unexpected circumstances; for example by reducing the number of autographs if a guest cancels but the package will still always remain cheaper than if you bought the basic package and items separately. Please note tickets/packages are Non-Refundable.
Is accommodation included?
The ticket price does not include accommodation. We provide more information on hotel rooms on the event websites, please use the left hand side links on the convention website you would are attending.
How about refunds?
Strictly NO refunds are given for any of our events unless the event is cancelled. Excluding the cooling off period. (Opens in new window). Please DO NOT ask for a refund. If you have any doubts that you cannot attend the event then please do not book tickets unless you are happy and 100% read the terms & conditions which state NO REFUNDS PERMITTED.
Can I get a Refund if a guest or guests I want to see cancels?
All guests appear subject to work commitments. If you book for a certain guest please be aware that you will NOT get a refund if that particular guest withdraws.
What about if Rogue Events cancels/changes the date of the event?
In the event of cancellation of the event, Rogue Events will refund only the value of the package you paid us. If for any reason an event has to change dates you will be offered tickets for the new dates or alternatively the option to change your ticket to another event that is being held.
What are the ages for Children?
Children must be aged 16 or under at time of event to qualify for a Child rate ticket. Children Under 7 can come in FREE with a paying adult, but does not include autographs from the actors attending the event. If autographs are required then they must buy a Child Ticket. Children aged 15 and 16 can attend without an adult as long as they have written permission from their parents or guardian. Hotels may have a policy on children staying in bedrooms alone so it is best to contact them directly and find out if children can stay in a room without an adult.
Do I get some sort of ticket for what I have bought?
E-TICKETS: We do not send out tickets via the post, instead we will send an E-Ticket usually two weeks before the event, please check your spam folder or add a rule to allow emails from Rogue Events. This will have all the information we need to process your registration such as your badge number and group letter. You need to bring the E-Ticket and some proof of ID such as a Driving License or household bill, if you have no printer then a smart phone with an email client showing the E-Ticket will also be accepted. If you have not received an E-Ticket then along with the your Order form and ID you will also need to bring proof of payment there will be a special desk for you to attend.
E-VOUCHERS: We do not send out Photo op tickets via the post, instead we will send an E-Voucher, these are separate to your E-Ticket. An E-Voucher is your photo-op tickets. It will have all the information we need for you to collect your pre-paid photo ops from the E-Voucher collection station after you have registered and got your badge etc. If you have not received an E-Voucher then along with the your Order form and ID you will also need to bring proof of payment there will be a special desk for you to attend.
PLEASE make sure you give us a working EMAIL address when you order. IMPORTANT we send confirmations with your badge number to the email address on the order form.

Do you offer Part Payments?
Due to abuse of the part payment system we have had to withdraw this facility.
I cancelled but still got a confirmation letter what should I do?
As we have accurate records of who has actually paid and who has not, if you did turn up you would not be allowed in unless you paid on the door. Therefore the registration number would have been cancelled and be invalid.
I've never been to a convention before how do they work? Let's face it we've all been newbies once so here's a little information on what to expect from the weekend.
What time is Registration?
This normally starts at around 1pm on Friday and 7am on Saturday, we will get through the registration process as soon as possible, what really helps is if you remember your 2nd email, the one with your Badge Number/Group Letter and take notice of any instructions given to you on the day. Registration is usually divided into times depending on your badge number.
When you register at the events you will be given your convention booklet, registration badge, wristband and autograph ticket along with any pre-ordered autograph and photo session tickets. Please ensure that your badge can be seen at all times or you may be refused entry to certain areas of the convention. Keep your autograph card safe; if you lose it, we are unable to replace it. There is a schedule for you to refer to, with times and locations of events. There is a lot to pack in over the weekend and we would hate for you to miss something.
What are the Event Times?
On both days the event starts with a brief introduction on stage, we advise you attend this each day so if there are any changes you will be informed of them before the event starts. The first batch of events usually begins at 9.15am. The show will run all day with and we aim to finish approximately at 6.30pm. On Sunday a photo call and goodbyes with actors sometimes takes place.
What Activities will be on?
Throughout the day there will be sessions of the following activities;
Guest Talks and Q&A
Autograph Panels
The Lounge
Photo Studio Room
Merchandise Room
Evening Entertainment
Do I get any FREE Autographs?
Inside your convention pack you will find an 'Autograph Sheet'. This sheet is the only way to obtain your FREE autographs. Upon entry to the signing zone please have your items ready for signing, if you want a dedication why not write this on a post it note to make it easier for the guest. The steward on hand will take your autograph sheet for the guest/s you want to see entitling you to obtain your free autographs. You can buy extra autographs from the Ticket Office. Autographs are called in GROUP LETTER look for the large A1 Flip Charts and on-screen Announcements. Only go up when your LETTER has been called. Please do not pose for photographs as this slows down the queue, think of the other attendees waiting in line behind you!
Please Note: While we try to get everyone through we can not guarantee a FREE autograph from each guest.
What is 'The Lounge'?
The Lounge tickets are on sale from the Ticket Office. You may only purchase lounge tickets when you have registered for the event and have your convention badge and wristband. Not all guests will be doing a lounge session which is why we do not pre-sell the tickets before the event.
The Lounge is a prime opportunity for you to get up close to the guests, usually there are no more than 40 people in this room, unlike in a large hall with 1000 plus attendees! Ask the questions you want, get a direct response from the actors! We have also removed the tables and chairs so it is less like a boardroom, instead we will have chairs in a circle. The Lounge will last around 20 or 30 minutes. Sorry no children under 10 are allowed in the coffee lounge sessions. Please note recording of the coffee lounge sessions is strictly prohibited! Lounge tickets range in prices depending on the guest appearing. Occasionally we may raffle tickets for certain guests attending the event. This was certainly the case for the main leads of the shows. This we feel is a fairer way for attendees to be able to interact with the main guests and ensures the safety of all so there are no stampedes for the few tickets available. It's also a great way to raise funds for charity.
Can I have my photo taken with a guest and how does it work?
We all like souvenirs from a day out, either at the beach, on holiday or when visiting a theme park. As such at our events we are pleased to offer you the opportunity to have your photo taken by a professional photographer. The Photo Studio is a prime opportunity for you to get a high quality colour print with your favourite actors. You can buy Photo Studio Tickets from the Ticket Office or via email when available. Many photo sessions will be planned for over the weekend. Please make sure you know when and where they are being held, and that you make every effort to attend any photo session you have booked.
Photo Studio Sessions will be called in GROUP letter order, until your group is announced please do not queue as this causes congestion and makes it difficult for us to control crowds. Tickets are non-transferable between sessions. If you miss your allotted session, you may lose your opportunity to have your photo taken with the guest. If you are in the autograph session at the time of your photos, it is advised that you leave that session when possible, go to the photo studio who will endeavour to put you through quickly, before returning to the autograph room.
Our photo studio staff are all extremely experienced and will ensure that announcements are made around the event so that you know what is happening. Please note, "final call" means you have very little time to arrive at the photo studio, and you run the risk of the session closing. If you do miss a session inform a member of the photo studio staff immediately, who will advise you what to do next.
From July 2013 we will be uploading photos from future and previous events for you to buy as digital downloads or reprints.
VERY IMPORTANT: Photo images on the website can not be saved by right clicking and the large view has a watermark covering almost 80% of the photo. However we understand some people may still wish not to have their photo included on the website, you can request it to be removed, please use the contact page on the Rogue Events Digitals website ONLY make sure you give us the correct DSC or JPEG number.
Please Note: The photos are printed on 10×8 paper and will be ready for collection by the end of the event, you need to collect your photo at the event. Any uncollected photos will not be posted out.
How do I pay for photo and autograph sessions at the event?
Unfortunately we may not have the facilities to be able to take credit cards on the weekend so all purchases will be made by cash or cheque (cheque guarantee card is necessary). The hotel does have an ATM machine in the hotel lobby however be aware that this does take a charge and frequently runs out during the weekend. There are additional ATM's at the train station and airport a short distance from the hotel.
What is a sponsored guest?
A sponsored guest is a guest which does not fall under your standard convention or some types of upgrade tickets, it is our way of bringing more guests to an event by securing sponsorship to help pay for the guest. You usually do not receive autographs or photo ops from sponsored guests unless you buy them at the event. However every guest attending will do stage talks so you still get to see them and can queue up to ask questions if you do decide not to buy extra autographs or photo ops for sponsored guests. We will always have a minimum of four guests per show but at the bigger events this can be more, check the guest pages for information on what guests are attending each event.
Is my seat numbered in the main hall?
We are trialling a reserved seating system due to popular demand; therefore if you have not purchased one of the reserved seats please refrain from sitting in these seats. You are able to sit freely anywhere else in the main hall except for the reserved seating area, please do not save seats for people unless they are popping out for a photo session or autographs. We will empty the main hall during the weekend when needed to so we can cool the hall down and reset for the next session. There will also be a small area reserved for disabled attendees.
What disabled facilities are there at your events?
We are pleased to announce that all the function rooms we are using within the hotels have access for wheelchairs. Please contact the hotel regarding disabled facilities in the bedrooms. We have arranged space towards the front of the stage talks for those attendees who have wheelchairs or find it difficult to move around unassisted. There are no strobe effects during the stage talks however there are short intro videos and flash photography at the beginning of the stage talks which may affect some attendees who suffer from epilepsy & other visual light stimulation effects. We don't offer discounts on our event tickets however if someone needs assistance to attend the event then please email us to discuss further options. Use this link for further information on Attendees with a disability.
Can I bring a camera or a video to take pictures of the guests during the talks?
You can bring a camera to take pictures during the talks however, you may use flash photography for the first 5 minutes of each guest talk, then there will be an on-screen notice that you stop. You may still continue to take photos of the talk but it must be without the flash. If you continue to use flash photography, Rogue Events reserve the right to confiscate your camera until after that talk has finished. Please note that Video or Audio recording of the event is NOT permitted at any of our events in the Main Hall or where ever there are Guest Talks. If you are found to be recording the event you will be ejected from the event without a refund. This includes streaming the event on the internet.
Please note with regards to the DVDs we sell of the conventions from our online store, under no circumstances are you allowed to distribute the footage on YouTube or any other video hosting website. Anyone found to be doing this will be dealt with as strongly as possible within the law. You will be banned from all events run by Rogue Events and any other conventions we are involved with permanently.
Asking Questions during the stage talks?
You will have an opportunity to ask the guests questions during the guest talks however we ask that you ask interesting and appropriate questions, and not engage in conversations with them. Please do not ask for hugs or whether you can give the guest a gift etc.
I want to give the guest a gift, when can I do this?
You may give the guests gifts however please remember to try to keep these small as guests may not want to carry back large and bulky presents. Gifts may be given to the staff member during the autograph session. They must be unwrapped and given to the guest assistant sitting with each guest. In the interest of health and safety we ask that you do not give either food or drink.
What to do in the evenings or in other word's When Can I PARTY!!!
Each evening there is a themed disco for you all to party at. On occasion there may be live music (extra cost) and this will be announced on the website and shown on the schedule. The themes for each party will be announced on the forums, websites, Facebook etc and also on the schedule.
Finally our staff will be visible throughout the weekend by lanyard and will try to help you with any queries you may have. Abuse towards the staff will not be tolerated. Please remember they are volunteers and work long hours during the event. These people are fans like you, and are here to help make the event a success. If a member of staff asks you to do something, move along corridors etc please do so as quickly as possible. There will be a good reason for this so please help the staff out.
If you have read the above and you still can not find an answer then you can email us we aim to reply within 3 working days.

News: Willow Smith Goes Bald, Shows Off New Shaved Head
Friday, Feb 3, 2012 11:00AM
Roc Nation protege Willow Smith is showing off a new bald look in 2012 and will not be whipping her hair back and forth as seen in a slew of recently released photos.
Images of Willow's new hairstyle hit the Internet early Friday (January 3).
It's the end of an era, tweens and tween-adjacents. After 464 glorious days of hair whipping, Will Smith's singing, dancing daughter Willow posted a pic on her WhoSay account showing a newly shorn head. Known for out-there style choices, the "21st Century Girl" must have felt that long locks were so last year -- either that or she got a little too close to a "Fireball." All in all, it was a good run -- when Miss Piggy is mussing her golden coiffure in tribute, you know you've succeeded. Let us pause and take a moment to remember the paint-splattering, hair-whipping good times (video below, obviously). (Entertainment Weekly)
Just last month, the singer was rocking a Nicki Minaj-inspired wig.
Which singer was seen channeling Nicki Minaj in one of the rap diva's pink and blonde wigs? It's Willow Smith! The 11-year-old pop star tweeted a photo of herself wearing a wig from the Harajuku Barbie herself. "Thank you @nikkiminaj you're amazing!!!" tweeted Willow, who worked with Nicki on her latest single "Fireball." Willow's debut album Knees and Elbows is due April 3. (Rap-Up)
Coincidentally, bald beauty Amber Rose was recently spotted showing off long hair over the winter.
What a way to go undercover! Amber Rose was spotted rocking out to the tunes of her boo Wiz Khalifa and Snoop Dogg this past weekend at the Tabernacle in Atlanta. She was almost unrecognizable as she stood at the side of the stage rocking a white blazer, wolford tights and a long dark wig. Meanwhile, Wiz and Snoop tore it down, performing some of their latest collabos off of their new soundtrack, 'Mac & Devin Go To High School' from their upcoming movie with the same name. (Necole Bitchie)
In December, Willow and Minaj's "Fireball" music video officially premiered.
Directed by Roman Lee, "Fireball" is a simplistic take on Smith's sassy and youthful energy. It begins with a shot of a deserted sidewalk and cuts to a scene of the 11-year-old singer in front of blazing flames in an elaborately decked out ensemble, including a headpiece. As dancers perform a choreographed routine, Smith is seen strutting down the street with everlasting swag and attitude. It's not long before Young Willow also shows her dancing skills when she joins in on the extravaganza, throwing in a few hair whips here and there. Minaj visits the street takeover soon after in an over-the-top dress made of fluorescent-colored teddy bears and matching fur boots. While streetlights glimmer on the wet pavement, the Young Money diva dances beside the singer as she spits her guest verse. (MTV)

Gerard Depardieu, the actor who stared in films including Green Card and Cyrano de Bergerac, has been taken off a flight in Paris. He was due to fly to Dublin, but was not allowed to continue on his journey after he urinated in plain sight of other passengers. According to reports, Mr Depardieu was asked by cabin crew to remain in his seat after he asked if he could visit the lavatory.
The CityJet plane was preparing to take off at the time. However, Mr Depardieu did not remain in his seat, and according to another passenger on the flight decided to stand in the aisle and urinate into a bottle. It is claimed that he also urinated on the aisle itself.
According to the movie star, the incident was not because of alcohol, but rather because he had drunk a large amount of water before getting onto the flight. According to another traveller, Mr Depardieu announced to the rest of the cabin 'Je veux pisser' before performing the act.
Although the movie star said that he was prepared to deal with any mess he had made, the pilot decided to return to the terminal where Mr Depardieu was asked to leave the aircraft. According to CityJet, which is owned by Air France, flight AF5010 was delayed because one of the passengers on board had failed to comply with a staff request that he remain seated before take off.
Mr Depardieu was due to fly to Ireland to film the latest Asterix and Obelix movie.

Jump up and down and wave someone else's knickers in the air.
Ladette to Lady is back - and it's pants. Or, in the language of the frustrated old broads trying to teach female lager louts how to behave proper, it was young gentlemen's undergarments.
Are you sick of filling your paper recycling bin with all the junk mail you get?
It does not have to be that way. You can stop junk mail in its tracks.
MOTOGP pilot Chris Vermeulen has announced he will run the famous 'number seven' plate this year in a tribute to his hero Barry Sheene.
The hat-wearing Aussie will become the first Suzuki rider to run with the number since Sheene himself, finally having been able to snaffle it from the departed Carlos Checa.
For Vermin, it is the ultimate tribute to his mentor and the late great star of the 500ccGP era, and again it throws up the peculiarity that is numbers in bike racing.
Here is the news - and this is Ian Robson reviewing it.
Bong - News at Ten is back. Bong - Trevor McDonald is the newsreader once more.
Bong - Couldn't they get someone else?
McDonald is past his sell-by date and it is only the presence of his co-presenter Julia Etchingham that makes News at Ten half-watchable.
FOR quite some time a dedicated group of martial artists in the region have been working hard to raise cash for Cancer Research UK.
They do this not for the glory but because they want to make a difference â and as such they are unsung heroes.
The foremost of these unselfish and caring guys is Sensei Peter Seth who spends most of the year organising the NorthâÂÂs biggest martial art showcase, the Marfest International Martial Arts Festival held annually in Sunderland.
My wife sent me a text message the other day to tell me she thought I was a "jazz hit". That's nice, I thought.
A slight exaggeration, mind you. Because although I play the guitar - and even own a semi-acoustic Ibanez that's perfect for jazz - I'm really more of a determined strummer than a virtuoso performer.
I receive a lot of emails asking where certain things can be taken to be recycled.
It is easy enough to ring your local council or to check their website to see what waste they take into their household waste recycling sites.
But, how do you find out about all the sites in supermarkets and car parks.
There was something disturbing about the Wire in the Blood special starring Geordie favourite Robson Green.
Something to do with scenes of gratuitous violence against women and children. This series, always near the knuckle, has finally crossed the boundary.
I was grave hopping on the Gone Too Soon website the other day.
That might strike you as a somewhat morbid thing to do, but I was merely curious I assure you.
I can't quite explain why. . .although I suspect it had something to do with turning 49 the other day and the fact that I'm now contemplating my own mortality along with my navel.
By the time you read this over 6 million real Christmas trees will have been bought in the UK, that is about nine thousand tonnes of trees.
Once they are taken down, where do they all go?
Only 750,000 of the real trees sold in 2006 were recycled, most go to landfill unless you take action to prevent it.

Labyrinth, the story of a teenager's quest to save her baby brother from Jareth the Goblin King with the help of a gang of nightmare-fuel Muppets, is an awesome movie. Don't deny it. Sadly, the closest thing it got to a sequel was the four-volume original English-language manga Return to Labyrinth. Authorised, but whether it's considered canon, I know not and I care not. I honestly give zero damns about it. Aside from… seriously, what the crap, TokyoPop?
I'm not even sure that it needed a sequel to be honest, anyway.
That said, if – in some ideal alternate universe – Return was a true live-action sequel, this masterpiece by DeviantArtist Vladislav Pantic would totally be its official poster He has a couple of other Labyrinth posters too, one of which became a Daily Deviation. I much prefer this one, though.

Pink Ferrari? YES Please.
I've said before that DeviantArt is a pain to trawl, but somehow, among all the brony porn, Justice League fancasting, and terrible attempts at manga, I stumbled across this gem inspired by Golgo 13.
I think I need to be watching that movie sometime soon.

The UNO III is an awesomely strange beast. It's an electric bike that automatically contracts itself at low speeds, leaving it rolling entirely on its two back wheels until it picks up the pace again.
It's not a speedy vehicle, offering only 30MPH tops – half that in its two-wheeled "UNO" mode – and offers only an hour's travel at that top speed on a full charge but from a fictional standpoint, if it were on par with a petrol-powered streetbike, you'd have a crime fightin' machine on your hands, even more so with some gadgets and weaponry fitted to it (Micro Missiles Make Motorcycles Magnificent!) and perhaps the option to override the automation of UNO mode.
Any street-level crimefighter, though, may want to give it a more intimidating lick of paint. Orangey red just doesn't scream "pee yourselves in the face of street justice, evildoers", does it? Throw in an 80s synth theme to go with it, too. Worked for Street Hawk, right?
The totally non-fictional non-crimefighting UNO III is available at Firebox if you happen to have £8,500 and/or a reckless disregard for money. Seriously, do not use this to pancake the chavs selling illegal ciggies around the corner. You probably won't live long enough to regret the stupidity of it. That should be a sufficient enough disclaimer.
Jonathan Wyke originally attempted to draw a fan-art rendition of DC Comics' Captain Marvel, but that didn't go too well. Instead he took to drawing his own re-imagining of Earth's Mightiest Mortal, which has turned out looking nothing short of godly brilliance and also serves as an fine example of how magic-based heroes don't need to be parading around in cloaks and cowls all the damn time.
At the risk of getting my head bitten off for saying this, players of City of Heroes, Champions Online and DCUO should really take note.

Nouveau Opera at Yerba Buena
Wozzeck doesn't look, sound, or feel like your standard opera o' buxom women in blonde braids and Viking helmets. Thought to be the first avant garde opera of the 20th century and a classic example of atonality, Wozzeck is based on the true story of a man (named Wozzeck - title explained) who was accused of killing his mistress in 1821 and publicly executed for the crime three years later.
Based on a play by Georg Büchner, Wozzeck is rooted as much in theater as in opera. Left inconveniently incomplete at his death in 1837, the play languished until Alban Berg took the disordered scenes and set Büchner's words to music during the first world war. Ensemble Parallele, San Francisco's innovative contemporary opera company, tackles this historically rich production with noted tenor John Dukers and former San Francisco Opera Adler Fellow baritone Bojan Knezevic singing the German score. You get English supertitles so you don't have to rely on facial expression and spotty ESP to suss out the plot. Staged with multi-media inspired by German silent films of the 1920s, this intensely-paced tale of love and alienation is opera for people who don't do opera.

A couple of hikers from Portland got lost above the snow line on Nesmith Point on Saturday afternoon, prompting a search and rescue operation.
The two Portland women, ages 36 and 44, were found just after midnight.
The husband of one of the hikers reported he received a call from his wife around 3 p.m. Saturday. She told him they were at the top of Nesmith Point and had become disoriented while backtracking after the snow fell, covering both the trail and their footsteps.
Multnomah County Sheriff's Office Search and Rescue (SAR) units were activated. Crews staged at John B Yeon State Park, from where they made slow and steady progress traveling uphill to an elevation of 3,800 feet, in icy conditions and extreme weather.
Fortunately, the women were experienced, trained hikers, and were dressed appropriately for the conditions. They had packed food and water, and stayed put until rescuers arrived.
They were brought down and reunited with friends and family members at about 3:45 a.m. Sunday.

News: Joe Budden Challenges Lloyd Banks W/ Collabo Offer, "I'd Have To See If I Could Tear Him Up"
Friday, Jul 3, 2009 4:19PM
Joe Budden recently spoke on G-Unit's Lloyd Banks and how he would want the opportunity to record with the rapper and go bar-for-bar with "The Punchline King."
Despite having a rap beef with the Unit in recent years, Budden said he was open to a collaboration with the emcee.
"I wanna do a song with Lloyd Banks," Budden revealed in a live blog chat on Friday (July 3) afternoon alongside his friend/producer Dough Boy. "I gotta get him, pause. Yeah, that's what I want. I think he's ducking me. I think Banks was dope and then he fell the f*ck off and then he got right back up. So personally, for me, I would want to do a song with him. Nah, he don't got no personality. I'd have to see if I could tear him up [on a record]." (Blog TV)
Joey informed fans via Twitter that he would be broadcasting live earlier today.
"Over here at @jerseydoughboy crib, fillin up the iPod... I'm souped !!," he wrote. "my blogtv account is deactivated ??????? wtf http://www.blogtv.com/Peopl... live w/ @jerseydoughboy & his girl ! I'm broadcasting on @blogTV.com now, come see me! http://www.blogtv.com/peopl..." (Joe Budden's Twitter)
Budden previously mended his issues with The Game last summer.
"We weren't the best of friends, me and G-Unit, at the time so I guess yeah, I can see how the line was taken out of context," said Budden of a mixtape line which allegedly sparked a beef. "And then Game just dissed me. He felt some type of way about what I said and then he sent some shots my way and vice versa -- yeah it was beef...The other day me and him connected. He reached out we had a great great conversation." (Vlad TV)
His tension with the Unit reportedly stemmed from a DJ Clue mixtape.
On a DJ Clue tape, Joey spit an ambiguous punchline: "He should be in the G-Unit vid with all the gangster actors." DJ Clue pasted an unrelated Game verse onto the same song, so Game?s new boss 50 Cent took note. After 50 [Cent] asked Game about it, the rookie Compton MC decided to craft his response "Buddens." (Complex)
Lloyd Banks, also called "The Punch Line King," recently spoke on his re-emergence onto the mixtape scene.
"I would lie to say it doesn't," Banks said regarding Lil Wayne's motivation. 'You need something -- it's right there plain in your face. I always felt like that was the formula, like that was the structure I needed to be successful. It's just like the record label looks at it like you're over-saturating. They don't understand the freestyle. They don't make any money off of the freestyle. Anything that they don't make money off of, it doesn't make sense. That's why I had to get away from it. You can't tell me this shit doesn't make sense when this is what got me sittin' in your office. We've done it! We've made it possible for Wayne to understand that formula, and he took it and ran with it!" (Hip Hop DX)

Salt just got tastier!
This natural sea salt has been smoked over a fire until the fragrance of hickory has permeated each delightful crystal. The secret to the distinctive smoked flavor is created by using real wood, without artificial color or flavors. This Hickory Smoked Salt has a medium smoked flavor and can be pressed on meats such as roast or steak and let to marinate until ready to cook.
- Comes in its own crystal grinder
- Size: 4 oz.
- Ingedients: Sea Salt, Hickory Smoke
Made by the Maine Sea Salt Company
Salt from the Atlantic Ocean is their only ingredient... At the Maine Sea Salt Company, they believe that the cool, mineral-rich saline waters of the Gulf of Maine provide their natural sea salts with a unique flavor. As the first salt works in Maine in over 200 years, their company brings forward the tradition of harvesting pure and natural sea salt, directly from the source... the ocean! They make their sea salt naturally, through the evaporation and reduction of sea water in solar green houses and shallow pools.

A grandmother was overwhelmed after she was reunited with her 3-year-old granddaughter who was in a vehicle stolen from a KCK gasoline station.
The little girl's mother was inside a BP gas station in line to pay for her gas when two men took off in the vehicle Friday morning. The keys were inside along with Nila, who was in the back seat.
As the mother sprinted after the vehicle, a good Samaritan heard her screams. He leaped in action and helped tracked the vehicle, which was found abandoned a few blocks away.
"I was driving really fast trying to find them," Jerome Hooks said.
KCK police questioned the mother while the girl was released to the care of her grandmother. Linda Jones said she was panic stricken when she first learned from her daughter that the "baby" had been taken in the car.
"I was very relieved," Jones said when she got a second call saying that Nila had been found safe and sound.
The Pontiac Grand Prix was stolen in the area of 77th Street and Parallel Parkway about 7:50 a.m. The vehicle was found abandoned in the area of 77th and Armstrong Avenue about 15 minutes later. A sanitation worker helped care for the child until authorities arrived.
Hooks went back to get Nila's mother and drive her to her daughter's side.
"She kept thanking me, and thanking me and thanking me. She was crying. She wasn't worried about her car. I told her that her baby was OK. That's the main thing. She wanted to get to the baby," he recalled.
Police are looking for several suspects seen in a white Buick LeSabre, whose occupants are believed to have been casing the area. The white men were in the 20s and the Buick had a Missouri license plate. A second gray vehicle is also suspected of being involved.
Police reviewed surveillance video as they seek the suspects. If you have any information, call the TIPS Hotline at 816-474-TIPS.
Police reminded motorists not to leave your car running when it's cold. They said thieves watch and pounce to take advantage of unattended vehicles.

The USAC Consortium and Dr. Felix Menchacatorre honored in DC at US House of Representatives
As each member of the US Congress can dedicate one minute a year to address the house on a personal cause, Nevada representative Dina Titus (D) used this opportunity to acknowledge the University Studies Abroad Consortium (USAC) of the University of Nevada, Reno. Not only did she recognize the program's excellence but also included a special tribute to Dr. Felix Menchacatorre, who passed away last August, that served USAC in several capacities, including resident director of the Bilbao program for over 25 years. "Estás en nuestro corazón, Félix", she said. [Full program transcript and video]
Reno, NV, USA. The University Studies Abroad Consortium (USAC) under the directorship of Dr. Carmelo Urza is a consortium of 33 US universities that has provided quality study abroad programs for over 25 years. Growing out of an original exchange program to Oñati, Gipuzkoa lead by the Basque Studies Program also at the University of Nevada, Reno, USAC currently offers programs in 25 countries at 39 programs sites with a 93% recommendation rate.
Central Office and consortium staff work closely with the on-site Resident Directors and Program Coordinators to ensure that students receive personalized care and attention. With annual enrollment of about 2,500, USAC students represent more than 700 US and foreign universities and 22 countries.
Dina Titus as well as her husband, Tom Wright, has participated in several USAC programs as visiting professors. She has also been a key supporter of the Center for Basque Studies (formerly known as the Basque Studies Program) and USAC in the Nevada Legislature lending invaluable support to both.

Absolutely, I remember when I was pregnant with my second pregnancy you know life through me the curve ball of twins and so there went my birth plan right out the window and you know it's a blessing but things change. Well now part of your birth plan is knowing what to pack for when you go to the hospital so I hope we can go through a list of what you think are essentials for moms to be to put in their bag. Definitely, first bring your own towel to the hospital and a change of clothes for after as well so that you're ready to go the next day. And a loose-fitting nightgown is great right after baby is born and also the next day. Nice warm cozy socks of course during labor and after. A sweater or wrap for your birth partner because hospitals are notoriously very chilly. Here's my favorite a soothing focal point - yes this is important for expectant moms to focus and really stay centered and relaxed. And books and magazines important for birth partner and for mom in the early stages of labor. And just essential toiletries and also don't forget massage oil or lotion to help relieve those aches and pains. Amen, and to keep the birth partner going. Yes, food to keep your birth partner energized. Okay, candies and lollipops? Yes hard candy and lollipops are great for mom just to keep their mouth moistened and also to give them a tad bit of sugar. A video camera of course to record your new bundle of joy and a mp3 player just load on there nice soothing favorite songs. Okay, and the cutest thing on our list – of course a baby going home outfit a nice little hat and booties. They will probably kick these off but they are cute and will keep them warm for as long as possible. Yes, and a onsie of course. And perhaps the most important item on our list is the car seat. Yes very important, the hospital will not let you leave until they see that you have a car seat. Good to know and I would suggest practicing installing the car seat a couple of times even before you go to the hospital just to make sure that you have it in right they can be a little bit tricky. Yes it was very tricky for my husband and I. Thanks for being with us, we will see you next time on Pregnancy Today.

Morgan Park's Billy Garrett Jr. soars to release a shot past Proviso East defenders Paris McCullum (25) and Sterling Brown (21). | Patrick Gleason~For Sun-Times Media
No. 1
Morgan Park is clearly the best, most talented team in Class 3A. The Mustangs, who lost to Bishop Gorman out of Las Vegas, took apart the field at Proviso West, including an 82-57 romp over talented Proviso East in the title game.
The endless list of guards at coach Nick Irvin's disposal, including the 1-2 punch of Kyle Davis (Dayton recruit) and Billy Garrett, Jr. (DePaul recruit), generates the buzz. But the emergence and productivity of 6-6 athletic junior Josh Cunningham elevates this team. In the semifinal and title game victories, Cunningham combined for 35 points and 26 rebounds.
When you combine the outstanding guard play, speed, athleticism, depth and the fact it will play in arguably the weakest sectional in the state when March rolls around, Morgan Park may be the best bet to reach Peoria going forward.
No. 2
You win with guards—at every level, in the biggest games and at the most critical times of the year. The backcourt tandems at Simeon, Morgan Park and Marist draw the headlines. But Providence-St. Mel coach Tim Ervin has a bevy of talented, yet unheralded guards.
Junior Tevin King has been the recognizable name over the past couple of years, but the senior tandem of Khalil Small and Teadric Anderson have been overlooked, while sophomore Ant Mosley, Jr. is another one to watch. Small, King and Mosley combine to average 45 points a game.
St. Mel is 11-3 and owns a win over ranked 3A power North Chicago. This may not be the St. Mel of the glory days in the mid-1980s, but it's a team capable of making a deep Class 2A run this March.
No. 3
The most impressive showing by a team that didn't walk away with a holiday tournament title was Oswego's third-place finish at Proviso West.
Yes, Proviso East drubbed the Panthers in the semifinals in what was the ultimate payback game — Oswego had beaten Proviso East back in November—but the 4-1 record showed the previous win over the Pirates was no fluke.
Behind the best uncommitted guard in the senior class, Miles Simelton (23 ppg in five tournament games), the Panthers beat Stevenson and crushed both New Trier and H-F.

Pong revisited: Free speech and video games
Inside the First Amendment
By Kenneth A. PaulsonSenior vice president, the Freedom ForumExecutive director, First Amendment Center
Printer-friendly page
It's enough to make you long for Pong.
At the dawn of the video-game era, almost a quarter-century ago (and doesn't that make you feel old?), many of us played a simple ping-pong simulation on monochrome screens. The "ball" would scoot across the screen propelled by rectangular "paddles."
There were no studies of links between Pong and teen violence. There was no legislation trying to limit children's access to Pong. And no one filed a suit alleging that Pong had provoked a crime.
Times have changed. In their current generation, video games are incredibly lifelike and increasingly under fire for their violent content.
The city of Indianapolis took the unprecedented step of a new ordinance requiring arcade owners to label games with sexual content or graphic violence and to bar minors from playing those games without parental consent.
The ordinance was initially upheld by a Federal District Court last year, but was then struck down on appeal. Now the city has petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to review the case.
The ordinance was struck down at the appellate level on First Amendment grounds. How was that possible? Why can't a government restrict access to kids' games?
The short answer: We're not dealing with Pong anymore. Court decisions in the early 1980s consistently found that video games do not involve free expression protected by the First Amendment. But as games have grown more sophisticated, they've taken on more elaborate storylines and graphics. Like movies, the games have characters. Like movies, the games have plots. And like movies, these sophisticated video games are protected under the First Amendment.
In an enlightening and entertaining opinion, Judge Richard A. Posner went to great lengths to explain the plot of a video game called "The House of the Dead."
"The player is armed with a gun-most fortunately, because he is being assailed by a seemingly unending succession of hideous axe-wielding zombies, the living dead conjured back to life by voodoo. The zombies have already knocked down and wounded several people, who are pleading pitiably for help; and one of the player's duties is to protect those unfortunates from renewed assaults by the zombies," Posner wrote.
The court's decision was notable for a number of reasons (beyond the unprecedented exploration of zombie culture.) In the court's view:
Granted, playing a video game involving zombies is not exactly a civics course. But the court's observation is sound. Young people have significant rights of free expression and their entertainment often enjoys constitutional protection.
Muddying the water is an endless array of studies that suggest some harm to young people from violent video games and a corresponding number of studies, books and articles purporting to debunk the research.
Just last month, a professor at Japan's Tohoku University issued a report claiming that children who play computer games may suffer some impairment of the development process in key areas of the brain. "The implications are very serious for an increasingly violent society and these students will be doing more and more bad things if they are playing games and not doing other things like reading aloud or learning arithmetic," Professor Ryuta Kawashima told The Observer newspaper of London.
There's virtually a study each week and it's probably fair to say that the collective results are inconclusive. In any case, the research cited by the city of Indianapolis wasn't persuasive to the Federal Appellate Court.
"The studies do not find that video games have ever caused anyone to commit a violent act, as opposed to feeling aggressive, or have caused the average level of violence to increase anywhere," the court wrote. The Supreme Court may well refuse to take on this case, but it's clear that these issues won't go away.
There's a natural and understandable impulse to try to shield our children from ugly or violent content. The challenge is to provide a safe environment for our children without resorting to overly broad and unconstitutional laws.
In fact, there are some signs that the video-game industry may take a closer look at its own products in the wake of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
"I think that our industry, like any industry, has a responsibility to look at what we do and assess whether tragedies like this should in fact influence how we approach making the products that we make," Doug Lowenstein, president of the Interactive Digital Software Association, told Reuters.
That kind of examination driven by self-reflection and not the threat of legislation would be both welcome and constructive.

Anyone can put up a website, what do you really need?Drew Harris
These days with tools like Joomla, WordPress, Template Monster and a little creativity anyone can put up a website, or at least it may seem that way.
- You don't need a college education.
- You don't need any sort of formal certification.
- No formal training, internship, apprenticeship, or previous experience required.
All you really need is access to a computer and a bit of knowledge of the Internet.
This sets the "bar" pretty low doesn't it? It sure seems that anyone with half a brain can put up a website in a couple of hours, days or weeks. If you have hired someone to put up a website for you and it is taking longer than a couple of weeks, it is likely one of two things:
- You've hired a complete idiot who will likely never "get the job done".
- You need more than just a simple website.
Since I've already mentioned a few things about number one... I'll discuss number two: "You need more than just a simple website."
The fact is that these days most people do need more than just a simple website. You must set yourself apart from your competition. Today, everyone has a website. So, how is a simple informational website going to set you apart from all of your competition? It won't!
What do you need? Everyone and every business is different, treating them all the same and providing "cookie cutter" solutions are not the answer.
Is your business looking at the tools your clients and potential clients use today, such as:
- Reaching and keeping clients infomormed with Email Newsletters
- Mobile version of your web site
- Calling visitors to action on your web site and
- Making it easy for site visitors to become clients
- Integration of your "back office" tools with your web site
- Marketing to the bulls eye of your target market where they are i.e. social media avenues
An experienced firm that does a proper discovery and has the ability to execute on a complete solution IS what you need.

Here's a question you never expect to hear someone ask at a city council meeting.
"Who is my mayor?" a woman in the packed crowd shouts.
"That's a good question," someone from the council table shouts back.
It's a good question because the woman asking is not the only Surfside Beach resident wondering the same thing.
Who is the mayor of Surfside?
Seems to be a question the mayor pro-tem doesn't want to answer in front of everyone.
"This meeting's adjourned," he said. "I'll be glad to talk to you after the meeting."
"It was overwhelming to me to see what really serious condition the city was in," appointed mayor Glenda McGonigle said.
Even though she's resigned twice the 72-year-old grandmother is still technically the mayor of Surfside Beach, much to her chagrin.
"I asked them to appoint someone, anyone and get me out of the situation I'm in," McGonigle said.
To say McGonigle is an unpopular mayor would be well an understatement.
"A control freak run amuck," said resident Donna Robinson.
"We just want her gone," resident Elizabeth Brown said.
"I've never seen anything like this before," 31-year Surfside resident Chris Tarter said. "It's crazy it really is."
And city council meetings with McGonigle as mayor have turned into raucous free for alls with outspoken residents saying they are threatened with arrest.
"It was really kind of odd and creepy," Brown said.
"They've created an atmosphere that is more a combination of Swamp People and Peyton Place on steroids," resident Sue Gray said.
McGonigle takes all the name calling in stride.
"I'm not really angry I feel sorry for the people on the island because they don't get it," McGonigle said.
McGonigle was appointed mayor after the April death of elected mayor James Bedward.
"From that day on my life became a living hell," said McGonigle.
After taking office residents say McGonigle fired three city employees and hired a consultant.
Something they say she did without the needed approval of city council.
"She can't write a check for more than 5 thousand dollars but she does it anytime she wants," city councilman Bob Petty said. "She can't hire people without city council approval she goes ahead and does it."
Some residents worry that Surfside will get sued by some of the city employees McGonigle fired.
"The potential risk for the village right now is extremely high," resident Janna William's said.
"These people were incompetent and I went to city council time and time again," McGonigle said.
Residents also blame McGonigle for the state's decision to put the island's beach permit on hold.
"We lost our beach permit we can't do anything on the beach anymore including collect any money on the beach," Brown said. "That's the biggest chunk of Surfside Beach's budget and now that's out the window."
"I would never do anything to hurt the beach," McGonigle said. "But all the sand and all the problems were created long before I came here."
"Apparently she's quit twice and yea she just keeps coming back," Tarter said. "I don't know why but yea she does."
The first resignation only lasted a couple of days.
But on August 13th McGonigle says she thought she resigned for good.
"It's like everyday something new popped in and I'm going holy crap," said McGonigle.
But since the city council didn't immediately name a replacement after she resigned it looks like McGonigle could be the mayor until a special election is held on November the 5th.
While no one can force her to go to city hall McGonigle said she was told she's still responsible and accountable for what happens on the island.
"And I have no authority How can that work/" McGonigle wondered.
In our interview with the reluctant mayor she dropped a bombshell.
She showed us this August 6th letter from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality that states Surfside's water system tested positive for coliform bacteria.
She also said that state agency and the E.P.A. have launched criminal investigations.
"There's a criminal investigation into alot of activity down here they haven't shared with me all the criminal activity that has been going on," McGonigle said. 'I know the septic tanks being put in without a permit is a big issue with the state of Texas."
What action if any follows the criminal investigation remains to be seen.
At least there's one thing both sides seem to agree on.
The 72-year-old grandmother's time as mayor can't come to an end soon enough.

FREE TRIAL – Limited time only
Now that Blu-ray players can be had for under £100, it might seem rather ludicrous to be shelling out £1,899. But Denon is targeting the connoisseur with its new DBP-4010UD.
Using technologies from its 'reference class' DVD-A1UD, it promises the ultimate high definition experience, but also universal compatibility with any media you may want to throw at it. Full review
Portability might not seem like an obvious plus point for a Blu-ray player, but Panasonic's first attempt at such a beast is mostly very successful, despite its hefty price tag.
At 256x59x202mm and 1.7kg it's hardly pocket size, but it's swivelling screen folds up neatly into a compact package that's easy to shift from living room to kitchen or bedroom, or even take it along as an electric nanny for the car (it's powered by batteries or it can run on the charge from the cigarette lighter). Full review
This is a screen that has everything - skinny good looks, an astoundingly dynamic picture with super clear sharpness and resolution, plus a full array of connections that you can tuck away neatly out of sight thanks to its wireless connection system.
The only problem is that at £4,000, it comes with an equally impressive price tag. Full review
If you're a movie buff, or just want the best picture possible, the LC40LE600E delivers plenty of quality to warrant its cost Full review
The primary claim to fame for the BD-P4600 is that it's the first wall-mountable Blu-ray player. But that's far from its only achievement. For a start, its glossy black exterior, thin profile and lozenge-like form factor make for a gobsmacking appearance. If you aren't wall mounting the device, a stand positions it at an attractively jaunty angle.The staggering looks do have one drawback, though. The BD-P4600 isn't exactly replete with connectivity options. Full review

With the victory, the Ospreys also tie the SunTrust River City Rumble standings between the two schools and regain possession of the Dennis Viollet Memorial Cup.
The Dolphins (3-6-1, 1-2) got their score from junior forward Nedim Hrustic and produced many scoring opportunities, but were whistled for a match-high eight offside penalties. Sophomore goalie Johnny Foley (3-1) made six stops in the loss.
"This was not a good night for us," said JU head coach Mike Johnson. "We scored early and had a chance to covert on a few more, but we missed our chances. After the missed opportunities, we got frustrated and let them back into the match. They did what they needed to do to beat us. We have a lot of work to do for a quick turnaround on Monday."
The Dolphins took an early 1-0 lead less than seven minutes into match after senior midfielder Jonathan Jackson lifted a pass to Hrustic, who hit the bottom left corner of the net for the score.
Less than a minute later, Jackson almost scored with a header off the post, but the Dolphins were nabbed for the first of their four offside penalties in the first half.

The Dolphins cleared a dangerous shot away from senior forward Shareef Rajkumar with less than 10 seconds left in the first frame to go to the half with the lead.
In the second half, junior Adam O'Neil had a shot that was blocked by Foley, but Lauer took the deflection from the save and put the ball in the back of the net to tie the match.
The Dolphins got a shot attempt from freshman midfielder David Santa Maria in the 70th minute on a breakaway, but Beau was there to knock it away. Sophomore forward Tyler Williams followed with another shot that nicked the right corner post of the goal.
Less than nine minutes remaining in the match, Rajkumar found Lowenthal on a cross and he knocked the ball in the left corner of the goal to give the Ospreys a 2-1 advantage.
In the 88th minute, the Dolphins thought they had a penalty kick situation when senior midfielder Stefan Runeman was foul in the box, but the officials whistled JU for being off sides.
The Dolphins will try to bounce back quickly as they head to Miami on Monday to play Florida International at 7 p.m.

Fan Fiction
by LitoIceKrystal
The horrified commotion was still going on in Qian Long and Ling Fei's room. The terrible news is that the old woman has Ling Fei in her hands, and a dagger is placed pinned beneath her throat. Qian Long couldn't stand there watching Ling Fei in her hands, but he wanted to go right to the old woman and grab Ling Fei. Everyone stopped him from doing it in case he might get injured from the old woman.
Er Kang: Stop it! What do you want from us?!
Old Woman: Revenge! Revenge is what I want from this imperial family! Qian Long Huang Shang, if you want your wife to be alive, then you better sacrifice your life for her! One of you is dying, and that's it I am giving out your chance! *take a few steps back*
Qian Long: No! No! No! Wait! Don't hurt her! *Holding his hand out*
Ling Fei: Huang Shang, don't worry about me…worry about yourself before you are going to get hurt…
Old Woman: Shut up, young woman! *Shouts to Ling Fei*
Xiao Yan Zi: Lao Tai Tai! You are being cruel! How can you do this to me after I helped you bashed up those men? *Hurts with tears*
Steeped with an immense ponderous anger, Xiao Yan Zi can never take these kinds of things solemnly. She decides to let out her ponderous quantity of anger and explodes it out for everyone. Xiao Yan Zi uses her martial arts even though they were not really amended, but she manages to assault the cruel old woman. The old woman turns her head and faces when she saw Xiao Yan Zi coming in front of her. She briskly tries to dodge away from Xiao Yan Zi by heaving Ling Fei to another area where she bumps into a wall.
Ling Fei: *gasps* Huang Shang, help me! Save me!
The entire family gasps in consternation when they saw their beloved Ling Fei Niang Niang was hurt on the forehead from the cruel old woman. They soon started dueling with the old woman when she uses her fingers, places in her mouth, and blew out a whistle. The whistle sent a signal from outside of the house. A group of men in blacks came charging in suddenly at the right moment once they heard the fleshy whistle.
Er Tai: *shocked* Oh my god! More enemies are here! *turns to Er Kang*
Ge! You go protect Huang Shang, Ling Fei, Lao Fu Ye, and Huang Ho! Sai Ya, come and help me fight with these men!
Sai Ya: Right! *flies over to Er Tai*
The guys were dueling with every men in black while Xiao Yan Zi and Yong Qi were going opposite the old woman. Qian Long is taking care of Ling Fei. Screaming, terrifying, and sounds of attacks were heard everywhere. An icy chill went down Qian Long's back when he saw his kin tortured to battle to release him. He felt wicked for letting them doing this, but he wished he could defendthem. Incautiously, he picks up Ling Fei who was injured on her forehead and tries to get out of the room.
The old woman is still dueling with Yong Qi and Xiao Yan Zi. Once she flashes her eyes on Qian Long trying to run away, she abruptly leaps over to the door where Qian Long is about to get out. Yong Qi and Xiao Yan Zi speedily went to the old woman before she can give a gash on their best liked Huang Ah Ma.
Old Woman: You're not going anywhere, Qian Long! *raises her dagger*
Xiao Yan Zi: Lao Tai Tai! Stay where you are! Don't try to hurt my Huang Ah Ma!
Qian Long turns back and saw the old woman's dagger going to wound him. He went dodging from her frightening dagger while hauling his favorite wife, Ling Fei in his arms. The dagger went swiping from left to right. The old woman missed her chance of destroying Qian Long when Yong Qi gave her a kick, which sent her soaring out of the room and smashes the brown wooden table into pieces.
Yong Qi: Lao Ye, hurry and take Ling Fei Niang Niang into hiding. Here has Er Chen (son) and Xiao Yan Zi will take care of the business!
Qian Long: Hao! (good) *runs off into another room*
The old woman knew she lost her chance of getting her revenge. Facing towards the exit of the house, she dashed away promptly. While she passed the room where Xiao Yan Zi, Zi Wei, Liu Hong, Sai Ya, and Meng Y were staying, she bursts into the room to see who is inside. Fearing to death, Zi Wei and Meng Ya snuggled into each others arms. The old woman went in grabs behind Zi Wei and Meng Ya's neck. She is pressurizing their neck without letting them breathe if she can't get her revenge.
~*Girl's Room*~
Xiao Yan Zi came in and was shocked to see her sister in the old woman's hands.
Xiao Yan Zi: Lao Tai Tai! Let them go! Let my sister go!
Old Woman: NO way! If I can't get my revenge from your Huang Ah Ma, these two girls are going with me!
Xiao Yan Zi charges right to the old woman, but she missed when the old woman floated across the air using her martial arts. Xiao Yan Zi fell and bumps her hand on a chair. Once she looks back, the old woman was gone with Zi Wei and Meng Ya. She tries rummaging for them outside of the house in the dark. There was no sign of them or either the old woman.
Soon the men in blacks were gone too when the old woman vanished. The group came out and saw nothingness, but Xiao Yan Zi's figure standing in the dark.
~*Outside of the House*~
Yong Qi, Er Kang, and Liu Hong rush to her and asked what happen. The find no respond, but Xiao Yan Zi grumbles tersely on her soft, remorse tone.
Yong Qi: Xiao Yan Zi, where's Zi Wei and Meng Ya? *looks back and forth*
Er Kang: Xiao Yan Zi! Look at me! Where's Zi Wei? Where is she? *holds her shoulders tightly*
Liu Hong: Xiao Yan Zi! Say something! Don't be like this! Tell us, what happened to Zi Wei and Meng Ya? *tears streaming down*
Xiao Yan Zi: She's gone…she got taken away…*looks like a zombie*
Er Kang: Xiao Yan Zi!!! How could you? If you saw the old woman is taking Zi Wei away with her, you should come and stop her! She took our child away too!! *extremely angry*
Er Tai came to Er Kang to calm him down when he saw his own brother being so frustrated. Er Kang is once again going to hate Xiao Yan Zi even more. He remembers the last time when Zi Wei got blind, and she lets go of her being kidnapped. And now she didn't even care for her by letting the old woman took Zi Wei and his child away.
Er Tai: Ge! Don't be upset with Xiao Yan Zi! At least she was trying to help and save them!
Sai Ya: Er Tai! I'm so scared of what the old woman will do to Meng Ya too. She's my sister and we always stick with each other safely.
Er Kang couldn't take his anger seeing Zi Wei was gone and taken away. He was about to raise his hand and wanted to slap Xiao Yan Zi's face. Before he can touch Xiao Yan Zi, Yong Qi drags her back and Er Tai with Sai Ya and Liu Hong were stopping him.
Yong Qi: *points at Er Kang* Stop being like this, Fu Er Kang! You know it's not Xiao Yan Zi's fault! She WAS going to help Zi Wei out before she got taken away! It was your fault too! You couldn't even handle your own wife with your child!
Er Kang: *tears* My fault? *nods his head* Yes, it's my fault right? You were in the room, Xiao Yan Zi! I saw you went into the room where Zi Wei was staying with you! I trusted you once, but I will never again! Some sister like you can even take care of your own sister!
Xiao Yan Zi: Yes! It's my fault then! I'm horrible! I'm useless! I'm useless out of everything! *faces Yong Qi* Yong Qi! I can't live here anymore! All I do is provoke difficulty for the family! It's good if I run away! Bye! *scurries off*
Yong Qi: Xiao Yan Zi! Wait! I didn't say I don't want you anymore! I need you! Come back! *chases after her*
Er Tai: Er Kang, look at you! Look what you have done now! You yelled at Xiao Yan Zi, and now she ran off too! Don't you ever thought of how Zi Wei and Yong Qi might feel in their hearts when she is gone? She is Huang Shang's kai xin guo!
Er Kang: I don't care what she is! I want is Zi Wei! I want her being safely and sound with front of me!
Liu Hong: Er Kang! It's hopeless if you kept being in this kind of behavior. The most important thing is to find Zi Wei and also Meng Ya!
The group went back into the house with fear in the hearts. They never know if the old woman will come back or not. No one even knew where were Zi Wei and Meng Ya. Hu Tai was in the room applying medicines and trying to help to cure Ling Fei's injured. Qian Long was worried about Ling Fei and Zi Wei. One is his wife and the other is daughter. He weeps a little to see Zi Wei got taken away. Mostly is Er Kang who can never take his anger when Zi Wei vanished from his heart.
Ok, finished with chapter 13. Like before, leave comments again! Hehe, thanks. Plz leave your comments. Bye.
