Reaping day.
It happens every single year, the same feeling of apprehension and fear, and if you're lucky, relief. This is only my fourth year experiencing the extremes of it all, but my brothers before gave me a taste of it. I'm glad to say my eldest brother doesn't have to worry about it anymore. He has surpassed the age making him ineligible. And my other brother only has this last time before it's just me. I've still got two more rounds of this torture before I'm done... hopefully. There's always that chance that it happens to me today.
Honestly, I don't think my parents could care less if my brother or I got stuck doing it. Or at least my mother. She's never been loving to us at all. How on earth did my father end up marrying her? Oh, well, I do know. His true love chose someone else because she needed him more than my father. I can't say I'm not happy about that because then I wouldn't be here... And she wouldn't either.

Fred & George: A Short Character Analysis
Right, so first off I'm a big fan of the twins: both twins, not just Fred. I've always appreciated both as separate characters and I've never really understood how so many people never picked up on their differences. So I decided to do what I do best - RANT (wayhey!). Keep in mind this is just my own opinion based on what I've read in books 1-7.
In the first place it's important to know and understand the twins' differences, especially if you're writing a story that puts particular focus on them. Yes, both twins are bonkers, fun-loving, flirtatious, stubborn and lest we forget both in the possession of a razor sharp wit. The books may describe them as identical right down to the last freckle, but this doesn't mean that they are one hundred percent identical in personality - no twins are. In fact, if Fred and George were the same they wouldn't make such a good team. Fred and George are a perfect double act and in any double act you

One always assumed some amount of risk when they entered Wheeljack's laboratory. Oh, not that the inventor wasn't a brilliant mech; his inventions had done so much good for the Autobot cause. But his inventions had a nasty habit of melting down, exploding, or otherwise glitching at exactly the wrong time. Mechs had learned to turn and walk (or even run) the other way whenever they heard the dreaded words "Hey, come down to the lab, I want to show you something." Even Ratchet, one of Wheeljack's closest friends, and the Dinobots, who regarded him as a parental figure, had learned to exercise caution in the vicinity of the labs. One simply had to learn to expect anything when entering the engineer's domain.
So none of the mechs present at this demonstration were particularly surprised when, the instant he flicked his newest contraption on, a red-headed young human man popped into existence on the table next to the device. It was someth

Percy paused in the process of capping his sword. For the past few minutes, he had been amusing himself by uncapping his pen, letting the ball-point tip transform into his bronze-bladed sword, Riptide. Then he would recap it and watch the blade shrink back down. And then he would repeat. Over and over again. Annabeth thought she was going to go mad if she had to hear the ring of the metal and the click of the cap one more time.
Percy gave her a sheepish look and placed his pen-sword in the front pocket of his jeans. "Sorry," he said, unconvincingly.
Annabeth rolled her eyes and went back to staring with increasing frustration at the architectural designs laid out messily in front of her. She was attempting to get some work done on the reconstruction of Olympus, but so far it wasn't working out too well; the side notes and calculations had started floating off the page and twisting themselves

It was a hot day in London. To be exact, it was a hot, muggy, sticky day in London that seemed to suck the very oxygen out of the air, and so far the eighth in an unbroken streak of hot and sticky days that seemed bound and determined to suffocate the city in a heavy blanket of its own fumes. A ceiling of pasty gray clouds pinned the heat down amidst the streets and buildings, at the same time teasing and taunting the citizenry with an unfulfilled promise of cooling rain. Everywhere one looked they could see Londoners collapsed on benches or at bus stops, mopping useless sweat from their faces or waving newspapers in a desperate attempt to circulate some air. The entire city crawled along at a snail's pace, unwilling or unable to move any faster in the humid heat.

The Autobots had many friends among the humans of Earth, the closest being the Witwicky family of course. Spike, his father Sparkplug, and his newlywed wife Carly had come to the Autobots' aid too many times to count and even called the Ark their home. Chip Chase had lent his considerable expertise to their cause several times as well, and though he had obligations away from the Ark that didn't prevent him from visiting often. Raoul was less involved in their war against the Decepticons, but Tracks was close to the young man and even owed his life to him. Powerglide and the human woman Astoria had grown rather fond of each other over the course of time -- much to the amusement of the more mischievous of the 'Bots, who loved to tease and torment the A-10 regarding his human "girlfriend."

Severus approached the cradle with feather light footsteps.

Autopsy on former Turkish leader inconclusiveThe Associated Press | December 13,2012ANKARA, Turkey Authorities investigating former President Turgut Ozals death in office in April 1993 found traces of toxic material in samples from his exhumed body but could not conclude he died of poisoning, Turkeys state-run news agency said Wednesday.
Forensic experts exhumed Ozals body in October and tested samples for possible poisoning after an official report concluded that his death was suspicious.
The Anadolu Agency, quoting from a forensic report submitted to prosecutors, said cadmium and DDT were detected in Ozals body but that officials could not say the cause of death was poisoning.
Prosecutors have not made the report public, and it was unclear whether the autopsy had concluded what did cause Ozals death.
When Ozal, who had undergone triple bypass surgery in 1987, died, doctors blamed heart failure. But no autopsy was performed, and family members have long claimed the president might have been poisoned.
Ozals pro-Western policies helped modernize Turkey and gave the U.S.-led coalition a strategic ally during the Persian Gulf War.
But the president, who is of Kurdish origin, was allegedly preparing to announce a plan to reconcile with the Kurdish minority as a war by Kurdish rebels for autonomy in southeastern Turkey was reaching a peak.MORE IN Wire NewsMINNEAPOLIS A 114-year-old woman who challenged Facebook after the social media site wouldnt...

Sources hint at forthcoming Mac OS X technologiesMajor changes are in store for forthcoming revisions to the Mac OS X operating system, according to tidbits obtained by AppleInsider over the last 6 months.
To date, only a select few outside of the development team have been privy to Apple's plans for Mac OS X 10.4. According to sources, the company has been performing private briefings with partners during small or one-on-one meetings, all of which are covered by non-disclosure agreements. As a result, details of rumored features are vague and confirmation on timeframes is severely lacking.
Metadata Support
Nevertheless, one rumor which dates back to last October states that Apple has been working on a metadata enabled database file system. Essentially, metadata is "data about data," and includes data associated with either an information system or an information object for purposes of description, administration, legal requirements, technical functionality, use and preservation.
For example, sources said that image attributes such as size, width, and height would be stored in the metadata filesystem, allowing users to retrieve this information without physically opening the image file in an application.
In October, sources said the company hoped to leapfrog Microsoft to market. (Microsoft's Longhorn operating system is also rumored to feature wider metadata support.) The Mac OS X metadata support would be accompanied by frameworks to distribute metadata and a superior searching system utilizing the metadata, sources said.
It's unclear if Apple has proceeded with plans to incorporate this technology into Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger" or if it has been diverted in favor of a later version of the Mac OS. However, it has been confirmed that Apple is striving to release a new file system before the debut of Microsoft's Longhorn OS.
New Safari Browser
Government Security
Another interesting set of technologies, which are due in the upcoming release of Mac OS X 10.4, pertain to security. According to one source, Apple has been working closely with governmental agencies to tailor a number of powerful Mac OS security advancements that will be fully integrated into the new system.
The company has reportedly briefed only a small handful of individuals on the subject, and therefore the source refused to comment further.
As always, if you have any further information on these subjects and care to share the wealth, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com, via our anonymous voicemail or through our anonymous mailer.

Sharjah vows to eliminate garbage by 2015
Emirate's 'zero waste' plan will rely on recycling and composting
- By Emmanuelle Landais Senior Reporter, and Deena Kamel Yousef, Staff Reporter
- Published: 00:00 October 18, 2011
- Image Credit: Ahmed Ramzan/Gulf News
- Visitors at a recycling machine displayed in the Green Middle East expo in Sharjah. Such machines will be needed for Sharjah's push to a cleaner future.
Sharjah: In four years, waste could be a thing of the past in Sharjah with all recyclables sorted and reused, organic waste composted and nothing at all going to landfills.
Sharjah's "Zero Waste" plan by 2015 was announced Monday by Bee'ah, the emirate's waste management company, at Green Middle East expo taking place until Wednesday.
The task means dealing with the 23,000 tonnes of municipal waste collected by Bee'ah every month and sorted or dumped at the Al Saj'ah landfill site. Since the beginning of this year, 34 per cent of that waste has been recycled, said Khalid Al Huraimel, Chief Executive Officer at Bee'ah.
To reach the goal, Dh100 million has been invested to deploy improved blue and green, odour-proof, scavenger-resistant bins all over Sharjah by 2012.
New equipment
New collection vehicles, bin washers, bin side-loaders and street cleaners have also been brought in from Europe for higher efficiency and better collection operation throughout the streets of Sharjah.
Residents will be able to throw recyclable waste such as paper, cardboard, glass, plastics or aluminium into a blue single container and all other general waste into a green container.
"It's clear that zero-waste is the way forward. The most sustainable countries in the world are already implementing best practices and technology to attain zero-waste," said Salim Al Owais, Chairman of Bee'ah.
Solutions to deal with the mountain of waste will include waste to energy technology, organic composting and metal recycling.
"Internationally, this type of recycling programme has worked tremendously well, resulting in more recyclables taken out of the general waste stream and the quantity of recyclables increasing, while residual waste decreases," said Al Huraimel.
The lack of well-enforced environmental legislation continues to mar the industry's clean up efforts.
Landfill for importers
"Unfortunately there are no rules or legislation to protect the environment from imports into the country. Sharjah has become the landfill for importers. They bring equipment that they can't recycle in other countries here. This should be stopped," said Salim Al Owais, Bee'ah Chairman.
Business opportunities abound in the waste management sector in the UAE, he said. "We don't look at it as a business when the environment has been damaged… but there is huge potential for business."
Al Owais believes privatisation of waste management — traditionally the domain of municipalities — is the way to go in the UAE.
Government of Holland
The Dutch government is providing consultancy to Bee'ah on ways to reduce waste production as the UAE has the highest amount of waste per capita, Al Owais said.
Keynote speaker at the forum, Ebrahim Abdul Matin, policy advisor for long-term planning and sustainability at the office of the mayor of New York city, said the US city of nearly eight million people has its own goals to divert 75 per cent of its waste from landfills by 2030.
"This demands behaviour change because we actually need to use less," he said. "If people change their behaviour than the government can change but governments needs to make the rules."
Three facilities
Bee'ah, a Sharjah-based waste management company was set to sign Tuesday a €500 million (Dh2.58 billion) deal with the Dutch government to develop facilities on build, operate and transfer (BOT) basis to help Sharjah become a zero-waste emirate by 2015, a top official told Gulf News.
Bee'ah will manage three facilities for e-waste, waste-to-energy and compost that the Dutch government will operate for a limited time, said Salim Al Owais, Bee'ah Chairman. The period is yet to be determined.
Bee'ah's total investments to date reach Dh800 million in waste disposal plants in Sharjah, he said. It was founded in 2007 as a public-private partnership with Sharjah Municipality. The household waste plant has been established at a cost of Dh220 million and the tyre recycling facility is worth Dh180 million, Al Owais said.
The construction and demolition waste recycling facility at Al Saja'a is worth Dh75 million and the medical waste plant Dh25 million, he added.

Enriched Uranium
A U.S. company that has exclusive rights to turn uranium from Russian nuclear bombs into fuel for American power plants has allegedly demanded that the Russians cut the price on this uranium. Observers worry that this may endanger the whole deal — which, they argue, makes the world a safer place by keeping Russian uranium, and the people who make it, from migrating elsewhere. NPR's Dan Charles reports.

Football: McManaman sparks Real victory at Inter
Monday 02 August 1999
Inter, under new coach Marcello Lippi, lost to an injury-time goal by Fernando Morientes. The Italians featured their world record signing Christian Vieri in attack but were without Ronaldo, resting after the Copa America.
McManaman was brought down after a run from which Inter goalkeeper Fabrizio Ferron could only parry Bosnian Elvir Bolic's free-kick. Raul followed up to score.
Lyon, who have spent pounds 27.5m building a side for the Champions' League, suffered a 2-1 home defeat by Montpellier in their opening match of the French season on Saturday. Lyon were without record signing Sonny Anderson, who has just recovered from injury.
The award to Franz Beckenbauer of German Player of the Century following a poll run by German television and a football magazine provided a reminder of happier times following the national side's 2-0 defeat to the United States in the Conferations' Cup on Friday. "The world is laughing at German football now," reported the Welt am Sonntag.

Fury in Liechtenstein over German tax inquiry
Wednesday 20 February 2008
Germany's attempts to track down an estimated 1,000 "prominent" suspects behind the country's biggest tax evasion scandal on record has sparked a furious row between the Chancellor Angela Merkel's government and the Alpine financial haven Liechtenstein.
Crown Prince Alois, the acting head of Liechtenstein, accused Germany of launching an "attack" on his country and of using its intelligence services illegally to bribe a dubious informant into turning in suspected tax evaders.
The Prince's outburst came less than 24 hours before Otmar Hasler, Liechtenstein's Prime Minister, and Ms Merkel were due to discuss the deepening row over secret bank accounts allegedly held in Liechtenstein by hundreds of "prominent" Germans who are suspected of evading €4bn (£3bn) worth of tax.
On Monday state prosecutors, tax officials and police raided more than 100 homes and offices throughout Germany in search of tax evaders with secret Liechtenstein accounts.
The hunt followed an admission by Germany's federal intelligence service, the Bundesnachrichtendienst (BND) that its agents had paid out €4m to a former Liechtenstein bank employee turned "supergrass" for a CD containing detailed information about Germans with accounts at Liechtenstein's LGT bank. Their actions were said to have been sanctioned by the government.
Prince Alois described the BND's behaviour as "highly suspect" yesterday. He insisted that the informant had been convicted of stealing bank data in 2002 and imprisoned. "Obviously Germany wants to be a big-time receiver of stolen goods," he said.
The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday that the informant was a 50-year-old former LGT employee who had a record of attempting to sell bank data.
German newspaper reports said the BND made it a regular practice to offer cash for secret bank data. A spokesman for Germany's Finance Ministry said: "This is not an attack on Liechtenstein. It is an attack on German criminals."
But two German lawyers said they would prosecute the government and the BND over their handling of the affair. Ferdinand von Schirach, one of the lawyers, accused the BND of playing the role of agent provocateur because it had solicited information with a cash reward financed by the taxpayer. "Taxpayers' money should not be used to pay for a crime," he said.

West of China™ font family
Designed by Hans Bacher
Exotic, Chinese-Styled Fonts
Here, we have collected together our most popular Chinese-styled typefaces. These designs all have the impression of brushed letters and will work for a wide range of products and clients looking for typography with a bit of Asian vitality. And for the perfect final touch to your design, try adding one of the illustrative Pi fonts!
|The German designer Peter Huschka created Linotype Chineze™, a family of typefaces that resemble the calligraphic strokes found in Chinese characters, in 2002. Using a variety of brush-like elements, Linotype Chinese imbues the Roman alphabet with an Eastern flair. Try out this font in a menu, a comic book, or on food packaging!
|Mandarin™ first appeared with the Type Founders of Chicago and is an interpretation of artistically drawn Asian brush calligraphy. The stylized Asian atmosphere is not created only by the forms of the figures but also by the very name of the typeface. A mandarin was a high official of the ancient Chinese empire. Alphabets like Mandarin font are often used for the menus, signs and advertisements of Asian restaurants as well as for businesses with Asian products.
|Kanban™ is the work of British designer Ed Bugg, an all capital, oriental style typeface. Kanban was the word used for shop signs in old Japan and the letter forms mimic the square look of Japanese and Chinese calligraphy. Kanban is the ideal display solution wherever an oriental appearance is needed.
|Breeze™ is not directly intended as an Asian-inspired design, yet it fits nicely into this collection. It features super high contrast thicks and thins with and smoothly flairing strokes. This is perfect for something that is more subtly and abstractly Asian looking.
|Peter Kin-Fan Lo designed the award winning Linotype Ancient Chinese™ in 1997. It is a symbol font that contains 92 "portraits" of figures who look as if they could have populated ancient China. These portraits are black and white symbols, gathered together into a font. This symbol font may be used for any design piece dealing with history, China, Chinese restaurants, or Asian art. To clearly see all the details, these symbols should be used at larger point sizes.
|Chineze Dragon™ is a family of three font elements designed by Peter Huschka. The three elements can be used together to create delightful Chinese dragons of any length and height. Each letter on the keyboard corresponds to a specific section of the dragon's body – either straight or curved. Mix and match the parts to create your ideal creature. Chineze Dragon One is the background font; Chineze Dragon Two should be layered directly over top. Chineze Dragon Three, the top layer, has the dragon's scales and claws. to achieve the full effect, each layer should be assigned a different shade of gray, or a different color. This work may be done most easily in a layered graphics application like Adobe PhotoShop or Adobe Illustrator. Play around and have fun creating your dragon!
|West of China combined with symbol font Linotype Smileface:
West of China™ is Hans Bacher's fast-hand, Chinese-style display face. Looking like a cross between traditional Chinese calligraphy and contemporary graffiti, West of China is a fun design to add bounce and liveliness to your designs.
Drawn by Martina Theisen, Linotype Smileface™ is simply made up of smily faces that are expressing nice and friendly emotions. They are lovely for invitations, childrens documents in school, and for family affairs. Have fun with them!
|And when you need to use real Chinese fonts try out these designs from China Type and DynaComware.

Ive heard it mentioned on Spencers show recently. So which product do you feel is the best in hair thickening?
not products like topix
I think Spencer said he uses Neutrogena Clean Volume Shampoo.
I do remember Spencer mentioning a Neutrogena product, thanks.
I may check it out. Can we get a consumers review on that or any other similar product here at the forum?

Interesting. It doesn't even have Vitamin E at all as a listed ingredient.
I haven't tried the shampoo Spencer mentioned but I probably will some day. Currently I am using Aveeno Nourish+ Volumize shampoo and conditioner and I totally love them. I have also used Progaine and I liked that one O.K. too. There are a bunch of others that I have tried and didn't care for. You just have to try a bunch till you find one that suits you.
Yes, i will defintely check all products discussed here. Once i do ill report back on my experiences. By the way , Spencer has always spoke favorably regarding the use of Toppix -i tried it and it is a very good product. I use it for when we go out to formal affairs with no problem.
Hopefully one of the hair shampoos/conditioners mentioned here will also be a help.
I've also used Toppik, not every day, but I did use it. Another brand of hair fibers I use is from Hairmax. The Hairmax hair fibers seem just as good as Toppik to me yet it costs a lot less. I don't use concealers very often anymore but when I do they do a good job.
I tried Dermatch but they cannot match my hair color and no efforts to mix colors could match my hair color. My hair is red and the "red" that is available from Dermatch is actually more like clown hair orange than red.
Ill check it out
i use toppik every day... i feel like i cant go out without it anymore

New York Rangers (27-10-4) at Toronto Maple Leafs (22-16-5), 7 p.m.
(Sports Network) - Even with his team sitting atop the Eastern Conference, Rangers head coach John Tortorella isn't afraid of calling out his players following a disappointing loss.
New York's scorers seek to answer the call this evening as they take on the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Rangers took a five-game winning streak into Thursday's meeting with the Senators, but were shut out 3-0 in front of their home crowd. Henrik Lundqvist made 21 saves, but Ottawa goaltender Craig Anderson stopped all 34 shots fired his way.
"We had chances to score, but I thought Anderson played really well," said Tortorella, whose club had won 10 of 11. "I just think we didn't get enough out of our top guys."
Marian Gaborik leads the Rangers with 23 goals and 34 points, but hasn't scored in three straight and six of his past seven games. Ryan Callahan, meanwhile, has been held without a goal in three straight and seven of his last eight.
New York still leads the East with 58 points, one more than Boston and two up on Atlantic Division-rival Philadelphia. It hopes to have Brandon Dubinsky in the lineup after he was held out of Thursday's game with a shoulder ailment.
Toronto returns home after splitting a home-and-home series with Buffalo. The Maple Leafs completed a perfect four-game homestand with a 2-0 victory over the Sabres on Tuesday, but were dealt a 3-2 setback in Buffalo last night.
Mikhail Grabovski and Joey Crabb scored first-period goals to help the Leafs erase an early two-goal deficit, but Jonas Gustavsson was beaten by Jason Pominville for the game-winner in the second period.
"I didn't really see the pass because a guy was screening me," said Gustavsson, who made 22 saves. "It was a quick play and sometimes you are going to get beat by that."
Toronto, which failed to win five in a row for the first time since Jan. 27- Feb. 6, 2007, returns home to begin a five-game residency and is 12-5-4 as the host this year.
The Maple Leafs have posted a pair of 4-2 victories in New York this season, but have lost two straight and three of four at home to the Rangers.

North Huntingdon commissioners adopt new fund balance policy
North Huntingdon officials are getting a better handle on township finances with a new fund balance policy.
Commissioners unanimously adopted the policy at Wednesday night's meeting.
It sets a limit on the reserve fund of no more than 25 percent of the township's general fund budget.
Commissioners started the year with a budget of roughly $11.45 million, and an estimated $7 million in reserve. They would need to spend down to about $2.86 million to fit the policy.
"There's no time frame on it to when we get there," board of commissioners president Lee Moffatt said. "The more important thing with the policy is that once we get there, or once we get close is it's going to determine the taxes we tax ... You don't just want to tax and build up your own reserve. That's not good for anybody."
Commissioners made strides this year to spend down the reserve by allocating $2.2 million to pay off the public works building's $1.8 million mortgage and adding an additional $400,000 to road paving projects.
They reduced the township's real estate taxes by 1 mill, setting the millage at 9.23 mills. One mill generates approximately $330,000.
Township manager John Shepherd said he anticipates the reserve fund to remain around $7 million despite the mentioned spending because of another projected surplus. He said the township will not have exact figures until the 2012 audit's completed.
The policy does not have any recommendations as to how the reserve fund should be spent.
Shepherd said spending it on capital improvements, one-time expenses and additional street projects would make more economic sense, rather than putting the money into new employees because of the recurring nature of the operating costs.
Shepherd consulted with other municipalities and agencies while drafting the policy. Murrysville is the only local community imposing a reserve fund policy, and it caps the fund at 20 percent.
The Government Finance Officers Association recommends a minimum reserve of 17 percent.
"A rainy day, 25 percent of the township budget is plenty," Moffatt said. "There might be another tax decrease next year. I wouldn't have a problem if we decreased it for five years. It'll be interesting how we spend it ... In some ways it's not fair to the taxpayer to build up such a reserve. Tax what you need to operate, that's it."

WASHINGTON, March 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- In observance of National Poison Prevention Week, the American Cleaning Institute (ACI) is working to share messages about laundry safety with parents and caregivers in a new :60 second animated video. This new video could prevent a serious accident as it contains important safety messages about how to safely use single-load liquid laundry packets.
Most parents may not realize that laundry packets can cause serious harm and injury including accidental ingestion and eye exposure if not properly stored. National Poison Prevention Week is an ideal time to remind parents and caregivers to take the necessary precautions to ensure children are protected from serious injury.
In 2013 there were over 10,000 laundry packet exposures* in children five and younger. It is vital to store laundry packets out of reach and sight, and to keep them in their original container or pouch.
"Children act fast and so do accidents," said Nancy Bock, ACI Senior Vice President of Education. "Laundry packet accidents can be prevented. We hope this new video will be seen and heard as a reminder to store laundry packets out of reach and sight of curious little ones at all times."
To avoid accidents, always remember laundry packets and their containers are not edible and should never be handled by young children. Each single-load liquid laundry packet contains highly concentrated detergent and can cause serious harm if children gain access.
To prevent laundry packet accidents, ACI's new educational video offers the following safety tips:
- Always store laundry packets and their containers out of reach and sight
- Keep laundry packet containers closed and in a dry place when not in use
- Do not let children handle laundry packets
- Do not puncture or pull packets apart
In observance of National Poison Prevention Week, to prevent laundry packet accidents and ensure loved ones are safe, watch and share the important laundry safety video at keypledge.com.
