Plasma vs LED: TV Power Consumption and Electricity Cost
TV Electricity Cost Calculator
Use the following calculator to know how much will cost you a television in electricity over a year and compare it to an LED or Plasma TV.
Power Consumption
As shown in the chart, the power consumption of a plasma television is higher than an LED television. The difference is more noticeable for big televisions.
A plasma TV consume significantly more power than an LED TV because each gas cell needs to be excited enough to produce a bright color. In an LED display, the light is independent and shared across all the pixels so a more efficient way to produce the light can be used.
The data displayed is the average case scenario; the power consumption varies depending on the content viewed and the settings of the television. The TV consumes a lot more power when displaying a very bright white screen compared to a dark one, especially for plasma televisions.
Electricity Cost
The next chart shows the yearly cost if the television is watched 5 hours per day for 365 days, at a cost of electricity of 0.11$ per kWh.
As you can see in the chart, a plasma television does cost more electricity than an LED TV. However, the resulting cost at the end of the year is not very big, about 10$ more for a 50" plasma. On a 5 years period, the total amount saved would be 50$.
As mentioned here, a plasma TV cost on average 350$ less than an LED TV for the same size. Based on this, it will take 35 years for the total cost of ownership (initial cost + electricity cost) of a plasma television to surpass its LED counterpart.

Three Fishermen Seafood
Brothers John and Paul Browning, along with their father Robert, are the three fishermen behind their seafood eatery. After the success of their first location in Fort Myers, the trio opened another restaurant on the banks of the Caloosahatchee River in North Fort Myers, where they continue to serve up a medley of freshly caught fish, shrimp, oysters, and crab. At each laid-back eatery, they strive to make diners feel at home, broiling, steaming, or frying meals to individuals' specifications.

how do i get the cover off of the front side marker to replace the bulb?
2001 Nissan Pathfinder
Nissan Q&AAsk Your Question
2001 Nissan Pathfinder Question: front side marker bulb replacement
Answer #1nissanchief November 11, 2010, 02:31Enthusiast
It is not easy. The cover is stabilized by prongs which are part of the cover. These prongs resemble a rounded tapered arrow head and they are pushed into a part mounted in the light assembly. That part has an opening which is slightly smaller than the arrow head yet it gives ever so slighlty to allow the arrow head to be plastic pushed into it, then holds it firmly in place. The problem is that the arrow head is plastic and as the plastic ages it tends to stick to the part which holds the arrow head securely in place. I broke one of the arrow heads on my first attempt. I needed to replace the bulb on the opposite side of the car also, however, having seen how it was made and having broken one already, I was more careful with the second one. If you put any sideways force on it, it will break. After the screws are removed all force must be towards the front of the car with only minimal wiggling of the cover from side to side. You must find a way to apply enough force so that the cover moves to the front of the vehicle only until you loosen the grip that the ageing plastic has on the holding mechanism. With enough force, it will eventually break free. At the same time you must not apply enough force to break the cover assembly. If there is any way to get some WD-40 in there where those two parts meet, that would make it easier. Good luck.

True Christmas Joy
December, 2012
State DEPUTY Brad Grill Says….
My Brother Knights,
First, I would like to wish you and your family a blessed Christmas season.
Recently, I heard the definition of what true "JOY" meant and I have come to realize that being a Knight exemplifies the meaning of a joyful life. Very simply, "J" stands for "Jesus", "O" stands for "Others," and "Y" stands for "Yourself" in order of priority. A life spent in service of others before yourself truly is a joyful and happy life. This thought exemplifies what it means to be a Knight of Columbus and I ask you to reflect on this as you rededicate yourself to our great Order.
As we approach the halfway point in this Fraternal Year please look back over the last number of months and evaluate what has been accomplished by you and in your Council and what can be done to reach our goals together as Knights and Catholic men. This evaluation is also taking place on a State Council level and extensive discussions are ongoing as to how the State Council can be more productive in service to our Church, families and general communities. Please discuss any ideas you may have for improvement with your Council leadership, District Deputy, or you can email me at . In the months ahead, I will be reporting to you on expanding partnerships with Missouri Special Olympics, Catholic Charities, and other organizations in partnership with the Missouri Knights. From coordinating first response teams in times of catastrophe with Catholic Charities to facilitating individual Knight activities with Special Olympics programs, there are many possibilities which are being explored.
We are blessed in Missouri to have the generous support of all of the Bishops in each of our four Diocese. Again this year we will be conducting our "Bishop Blast". Please make every effort to support this membership drive which is vital to maintain our Order so that we can accomplish all we must in service to our Church and communities. I also ask that you make every effort to invite at least one Catholic man to join the Knights of Columbus. As a special note, I have written a letter welcoming and encouraging each new Brother Knight joining our Order this Fraternal Year. Please welcome our new Brother Knights and make them feel part of your Council.
Thank you again for your past and continuing efforts as a member of the Missouri Jurisdiction of the Knights of Columbus. I wish you and your family true JOY this Christmas season.

(Adds analyst's comment in fourth paragraph.)
June 9 (Bloomberg) -- Nakheel PJSC Chief Executive Officer Chris O'Donnell left the Dubai-based builder of palm tree-shaped islands as it restructures $10.5 billion of debt.
O'Donnell, who joined the Dubai World unit in 2006, quit after his contract ended, Nakheel said in a statement yesterday. Chief Financial Officer Sanjay Manchanda will replace him until further notice, the company said.
The CEO is the second top Nakheel official to leave the company since it began to restructure debt last year. The developer appointed Ali Lootah to replace Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem as chairman in March 2010 and added four new board members.
"The departure won't affect Nakheel's strategy, which at this point is determined by the government and the chairman," said Majed Azzam, an analyst at AlembicHC Securities in Dubai. "Once the restructuring is completed, the new CEO will have to start making some tough decisions on what to do with Palm Jebel Ali and other projects that are on hold."
Nakheel, which constructed an artificial archipelago shaped like a world map, plans to issue 4.8 billion dirhams ($1.3 billion) in Islamic bonds, or sukuk, to contractors by the end of June, Al-Ittihad newspaper reported May 23. The company has already paid 4.6 billion dirhams owed to trade creditors.
Dubai's property prices slumped 64 percent from their peak in mid-2008 after mortgage lending dried up, forcing speculators to flee the market. The government has pledged to give Nakheel $8 billion to help repay contactors and complete projects.

Positive Displacement Pumps Market To Benefit From Escalating Demand For Energy In Southeast Asia, Says Frost & Sullivan
SINGAPORE, March 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The superior performance standards of positive displacement (PD) pumps have made them the most preferred pumps for several industries. The demand for advanced versions of PD pumps will increase as more end users across the Southeast Asia (SEA) and Australia and New Zealand (ANZ) region start automating their plants.
New analysis from Frost & Sullivan ( http://www.industrialautomation.frost.com), Southeast Asia and ANZ PD Pumps Markets, finds that the market generated $624.0 million in 2011 and estimates this to reach $800.0 million in 2017.
The spiraling demand for energy and other resources in SEA is promoting the PD market. Expanding population in countries such as Indonesia and Malaysia will highlight the need for more resources (oil, chemical and petrochemicals, water, and food and beverage) and for infrastructure development.
"All these industries are major users of pumps," remarked Frost & Sullivan Industrial Automation and Process Control Research Analyst Krishnan Ramanathan. "Further, it is estimated that the SEA and Asia-Pacific region will register a 2.4 percent yearly increase in energy demand until 2030 – above the projected global average – pushing the uptake of PD pumps by the oil and gas industry."Pumps are indispensible for industrial development with inherent benefits including project cost reduction, improved accuracy, and lower noise interference. Despite these advantages, high initial installation costs are deterring end users from investing in PDs. The effect of this restraint will remain high during the short- and medium-term. "Investments in newer technologies and research on emerging applications will reduce the impact of such high initial costs and capital investments over the long-term," elaborated Ramanathan. "In other words, PD pumps will gain acceptance in newer industries, but this will take time."

Indrajith will be seen playing a tribal member twice this year and too on the trot along with the same actress.
The actor has just wrapped the filming of his featurette opposite Padmapriya in VK Prakash's 'Poppins', the remake of his Kannada flick 'Aidu Ondla Aidhu'. The filming was set in the Coorg forests.
Incidentally, Indrajith is also set to play a similar role in the backdrop of forests along with Padmapriya for director Hariharan's 'Ezhaamathey Varavu', which would start filming by the middle of this month.
The featurette in 'Poppins' would probably serve as a rehearsal for the upcoming MT Vasudevan Nair-penned flick.

That's the latest rumour to spill out of the U.K. today. Kanye West met with company Rovio Mobile, the people behind the app-phenomenon Angry Birds, in London recently, and brainstormed ways the two could work together on a few different projects. The meeting was Kanye's idea, but no further details were given.
We know Kanye is on the hunt for top talent in various fields for his new company Donda. And it seems he's priming some of the peeps from Rovio Mobile to be part of the magic.
We know you guys are probably playing Angry Birds as you read this, but in case you're one of those three or four people in the world that don't know: Angry Birds is that "even-more-addicting-than-facebook" game where you launch birds out of slingshots to kill pigs. There have been different versions of the game released over the last three years in different countries, and the game has spread to video and computer games, with the potential for more expansion. It's been called one of the most successful mobile apps in the world.
Kanye definitely picked the right company to pursue!

Andres Guardado has insisted he is concentrating solely on keeping Deportivo La Coruna away from relegation, as speculation builds over a possible move to England.

Sunderland are the latest club reportedly interested in bringing the highly-rated Mexico winger to the Premier League.
Bolton and Aston Villa have previously been connected to the 24-year-old, who is valued at around €10million euros.
The Black Cats are now understood to have joined the chase and are believed to have sent scouts to watch Guardado in action against Levante at the weekend.
Depor suffered a 1-0 defeat to increase their relegation worries, with the club now just two points above the drop zone.
And Guardado maintains that he will not think about his future until survival has been secured.
He said: "My objective is to save the team and after that we will speak at the end of the season."

Very noisy during the night. some people get in faight
I had to go to a different floor for a shower since the water in my shower was turned off (due to an "emergency"). I found this inconvenient. I also asked for a king size bed when I reserved my room and upon check-in was told that there are no king-size beds in the hotel. I don't know why I was given the option if this was not available.
Location to Hwy and all the amenities close by.
Not having a small fridge in the room. And the ice machines on only two floors.

little bit expensive
Very stylish rooms with great views. Right next door to a very big shopping centre with nice restaurants.
No breakfast included in the price. It was provided in an adjoining restaurant that didn't have a buffet so it wasn't easy to get exactly what you wanted.
Big and comfortable rooms.
Have to pay for coffee pods and beverages. No breakfast served in lobby.
European style hotel and rooms, minimalist styling . Has what I am looking for in a hotel
No coffee in the room.
Eco-friendly and good places to eat within walking distance. Loys of high-end shopping in the neighboring shopping mall.
Noisy location right beside a major highway with constant large truck traffic throughout the night. If traffic noise doesn't both you, you should be fine. The room was generally clean, but there were several hairs in the shower and bathroom floor. There was a Keurig coffee maker in the room but no cups, coffee pods, etc. Not sure why the machine is there...???

Lofts of Sand Creek is not the best community to move into within this area. For the short year I stayed at t Read Morehe Lofts, there was a high turn around with both the residents and staff. This would make sense seeing that it is nearly impossible to get maintenance to fix things and management has to deal with unhappy residences. Upon my move in, there were several things found that needed to be fixed. It took several months and serious water problems/water damages to get maintenance to come out.

People Told To Stop Calling 9-1-1 When Facebook Crashed
I'm calling it "The Great Facebook Blackout of 2014." There was about 45 minutes where Facebook was completely down and users who tried to log on where given a generic error message and told to check back soon. It seems some people were so distraught they called 911 to report the problem.
Facebook went down around 12pm (ET) on Friday afternoon and it sent users into a panic on many levels. I mean, heaven forbid we actually interact…… in person! It seems some felt this was an emergency of sorts and called 911 in several counties.
One sergeant in L.A. County had to tweet out for people to stop calling 911 to report that Facebook was down writing, "#Facebook is not a Law Enforcement issue, please don't call us about it being down, we don't know when FB will be back up!"
Are we really this desperate and attached to social media?? WTH?! This really makes me lose almost my entire faith in humanity!
This is what I assume those 911 calls may have sounded like:

Marc Silver's main argument is the outbreak of Ebola, and if it is controllable. He states that Ebola is transmitted by blood or other body fluids; victims bleed internally and externally, with the fatality rate reaching up to 90 percent. In addition, he states that the virus is not easily transmitted; unless people are cleaning a dead body in a ritual, then they are more likely to become infected because they are getting in close contact with infected body fluids. Silver argues that if we are able to prevent people from washing bodies that are infected, we can "easily" control the outbreaks of the virus. He also argues that people generally do not get vaccinated for something that does not occur commonly; "even if you have a vaccine that is effective, there's always a potential risk associated with using vaccines. There's a lot of emphasis on therapeutic antibodies from people who've survived infection, which could create instant immunization, or drugs that can prevent the virus from replicating" (Silver). In addition, he states that Ebola is not well contained, and anticipates that we will lose many people. Overall, Silver does make a good point, however he does not have enough evidence to support it. For example, when he speaks about vaccines not working, he does not mention concrete evidence; everything seems to be already from his knowledge.

Published March 27, 2014
At least 60 people have died from an outbreak of the Ebola virus in Guinea. This particular outbreak has moved from the jungle to Guinea's capital city, Conakry, and reportedly crossed into Liberia and Sierra Leone.
The virus is transmitted by blood or other body fluids. Victims bleed internally and externally. The fatality rate can reach 90 percent, according to the World Health Organization. To learn more, we spoke to Ian Lipkin, the John Snow Professor of Epidemiology at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health in New York City.
How do humans contract this virus?
The original source is likely to be an affected animal—a bat or sometimes a primate. In the preface to human outbreaks, we see the loss of gorillas and other great apes in the vicinity where people become ill. We haven't heard anything of that sort [regarding the loss of primates in this outbreak]. (Related: "Ebola in Uganda: Why Can't We Cure It? Where Does It Hide?")
What causes the virus to move from animals to people?
The initial infection is through bush meat. If there are infected bats—or primates used as protein—in the process of butchering them, a person gets in contact with blood.
How does it move from person to person?
It's not easily transmitted. But there's this ritual behavior [in some areas, where] they wash bodies by hand to prepare for burial—a loving way of sending the spirit into the next world. This kind of behavior brings people into very close contact with body fluids that are infected, and that's how people become infected.
Typically these outbreaks are relatively easy to control if you can get people to stop washing dead bodies.
What about sexual contact?
There's some evidence of sexual spread, but I don't think that's a major issue. The major way it's spread is by butchering of infected animals and ritual funeral practices.
In this case, the virus seems to be moving—from rural regions into Guinea's capital, and across borders.
That's a little bit unusual and suggests a human carrier. These outbreaks typically occur in jungles or rural areas where people come in contact with bush meat.
It will be interesting as we do the postmortem [on the Guinea outbreak] to figure out how it crossed borders. It suggests to me probably [the transportation of] a dead body was involved. When an individual dies in a given area, if his relatives take care of him or her in that location, it doesn't spread any further. If they decide they want to move the body to bury it someplace else or somebody who lives in the city goes out to the country and takes care of someone and returns to the city, they may bring the infection with them.
Is Ebola always fatal?
There are cases where people survive, but it's an extremely dangerous infection. The majority of people who show signs of infection die.
Can the disease be treated?
We don't really have any good drugs. People are working on this.
Would a vaccine work?
The thing about vaccines is you don't generally vaccinate people for something that doesn't occur commonly. Even if you have a vaccine that is effective, there's always a potential risk associated with using vaccines. What may make more sense is to bring [treatment] online when people have been infected. There's a lot of emphasis on therapeutic antibodies from people who've survived infection, which could create instant immunization, or drugs that can prevent the virus from replicating. There's nothing on the market as yet. But in some of the animal models, people have infected the animals and then vaccinated them and achieved protection.
Will this new outbreak be contained at some point?
What normally happens is that international groups like Médecins Sans Frontières come in and cordon off the area, use a variety of diagnostic tests to exclude the worried well from truly sick, and try to interfere with some of these funeral practices. Then the episode dies out. But [this outbreak] seems to have moved. It's not as well contained as we would have hoped. I anticipate we will lose many people, but it will be a self-limited outbreak. We've lost less than 70 people. But it's terrible.
always think that it is a good thing to be informed, right. So I like
to read about issues and things that are going on. Well, I was kind of
concerned about the Ebola outbreaks in some of the areas in Africa. So I
started reading "The Hot Zone" by Richard Preston.
This is a true story about earlier outbreaks of Ebola and different strains of it, and researchers trying to find out exactly were it comes from, which species exactly it jumps from.
I'm only on page 104 and I am absolutely terrified. What this virus does to the body is like something out of a scifi novel. And to top it off 90% mortality rate with no vaccine in site. (The Ebola Zaire strain).
Don't read it if you want to sleep at night!
P.S. Let's pray it doesn't leave the continent of Africa.
" But there's this ritual behavior [in some areas, where] they wash bodies by hand to prepare for burial—a loving way of sending the spirit into the next world."
This is a terrific example about how religious belief, that is, faith based systems, are going to kill us all. These people need a scientific education as much as anything else, and the educated world should be providing it to them while preventing corporations from continuing to exploit them (among everyone else in the world).. That said, the educated world should also be providing education to the approximately 150 million americans at risk of fundamentalism (this is a dangerous disease which ends up killing tens of millions in something called war and since the USA possesses half of the military equipment in the world, this is the most dangerous group of people in the world).
Horrible disease. Hopefully find a vaccine or cure so no more living beings die.
Can vaccination with Reston virus cause resistance to regular Ebola? They used cowpox virus to combat smallpox in the 1900's.
I admire the work of Dr. Walter Gwenigale, Minister of Health in Liberia, in dealing with the disease.
I thought it was a hemorrhagic disease, is it or isn't it. What is the primary COD?
Well let´s c how far this spreads now.. Don't remember it spreading in a major city before this incident.
The absolute last thing I ever want to hear is "EBOLA OUTBREAK"
The deadliest disease on the planet, It concerns me that this guy is so casual about the spread of Ebola.
A small outbreak occurred about a year ago. And it seems to be spreading. Hmmmmm!
This is pure nonsense, and I wish it was more clear who had answered these questions. Epidemiologists still aren't sure what the natural reservoir is for ebolavirus, and they certainly do not know what human behaviors bring people into contact with it. Blaming "bush meat" is an old trick - it makes westerners feel sorry for all those primitive Africans who make themselves sick... but assures us that we aren't at risk. And funerary rites are not the major cause of person-to-person transmission, either. It spreads more quickly than that - all you need is direct contact with a person who is sick (contact with bodily fluids is a given when the infected person is sweating and bleeding all over the place.) Healthcare workers often contract it, even when they wear gloves. The main reason that outbreaks have not gotten very far in the past is that the infected person very quickly becomes too sick to travel. So it kills only within a small geographic region. But if it has mutated into a form that has an infectious incubation period - well, that would be very very bad for all of us.
70 poeple dead
Ignorance as to how to avoid the spread of this disease is what is allowing its progression into more populated areas. I can fully understand a bushman, with cuts on his fingers and feet from living without shoes or proper gloves, butchering and field dressing the carcass of a primate or preparing a bat in order to eat and then exposing his body to fluids from the infected animal via an open wound. I hope the virus can be contained before it jumps to so many bodies that it becomes more virulent and stronger.
Alonzo, hip fractures commonly occur in the elderly.....who repair much slower resulting in long bed stays with traction ,etc. The immobility leads to pneumonia resulting in death. Even in the U.S. the mortality rate is nearly the same.
I had an Aunt who heard that over in Russia. That if you broke your hip, you died. She got together a team of Drs and Nurses and they taught them how to sanitize a hospital room and tools. And how to perform a hip transplant. Do not how many lives she has saved since then. She has passed away. But I hear they have a hospital in her name. Maybe 1 meek and mild mannered Mortician should make a heartfelt trip and educate them on how to prepare a corpse. Who knows maybe they will name a Hospital after you.
Mother Nature ca be a cruel mistress at times.
@Ariadne Etienne 100 million people were killed by fundamentalism in the last century, but it was atheist fundamentalism, that is, communism. However, I don't blame atheism for these murders. Blaming atheism in general for the mass murders of communist dictators (communism is always inherently atheistic) is just as stupid as blaming spiritual practices or religion in general for jihad or other historic religious violence, or incidental deaths from scientific ignorance.
To blame ebola on religious belief, though, is unbelievable. In any other era than the modern one, these people would be handling the dead bodies simply because there was no one else to do it, whether they surrounded such handling with spirituality or not. The problem isn't the faith surrounding the handling; it's the ignorance that in this particular circumstance with this particular rare disease, no one should handle the body without extreme protective measures.
@Robert Greiner shock or secondary pneumonia, basically and all your blood vessels burst internally
@Daria Dykes My fear is this Ebola mutates so that it creates Human carriers who do NOT get sick but, are able to pass along. Kinda like 'Patient Zero'.
If EBOLA can survive in Primates without them getting sick & dying, who is to say a random DNA sequence in Humans couldn't have the same effect?
After all, WE are Primates too.
Another dangerous thought is Terrorism. What is there to prevent a terrorist to take tainted blood, fly to the USA & randomly inject people with Ebola?
It could be done either by tainting Blood bank supplies or even spreading it through Drug users who use needles. They in turn would share a needle or come in contact with others before signs of Ebola showed up.
Foreign Students coming to study at our Colleges, spreading it throughout the college campus rapidly.
I'm so very glad I live secluded in the Rocky Mountains, far away from Civilization !
@Daria Dykes Thank you for elaborating on this - you weren't the only person to find Lipkin's comments suspect.
@Rodolfo Alonzo This whole thing does not make sense. Your Aunt was in Russia? Was she Russian? Who was she to be able to collect a team? Where did she get a team, and who did they teach? And how does hip replacement relates to fracture - I thought that the technique is to insert a titanium rod into the hip.
Authorities in Russia are very reluctant to name anything after foreigners. What is your Aunt's name - I would like to look up the hospital.
Still, being myself born in Russia, I know that the hospitals there are plagued with infections and shortages of everything from bed sheets to medicines. The latter is mostly from hospital staff stealing everything they can and selling it on the streets. At least this was the sad state of affairs when I left 20 years ago. Having said that - how any team can help hospital staff stop stealing equipment and supplies in lieu of pay?
@Rodolfo Alonzo It has nothing to do with a lack of knowledge; it has to do with deep-rooted religious and cultural beliefs. You could teach them how to prepare a body until you're blue in the face, and some more modern, younger generations who aren't as closely tied to their cultural beliefs may follow your lead, but those who hold fast to tradition will balk at your teaching them the "proper" way (which they may see as the wrong way) and will go on doing things the way their traditional beliefs mandate. You cannot simply overrun a culture. You must first seek to understand it and then try to educate people on safe techniques within the context of their beliefs.
@KENNETH LANE Humans are all the time.
That's because atheism isn't a belief. Religion is. You may kill someone and say "god wanted me to," but no atheist is going to say "entropy commanded me to kill him." The comparison is a poor one. Atheism and communism aren't synonmous either, and suggesting they are basically means you don't understand either one very well.
Ebola is being spread in large part because of religion and superstition. That's not a matter of debate; it's confirmed.
@Dire Randall It's not confirmed, it's a matter of debate. In case you didn't know, it's a Tradition, not a religion. I hate how people are so quick to jump to conclusions. Also, if you truly hate religious people that much to blame them for this situation without any true factoids, I suggest moving far, far away from civilization. I hear the Gobi Desert is good for people like you, to.
Oh, and I must remind you that communism exist because of Atheism. The to-be-rulers of communist countries almost always hate religions. Look at 북한, or old Deutschland. Both hated religion and sorts one way or another.

Edward and Bella's honeymoon. Edward's POV chapter 6
Hello friends. Thank you for your support.
And hope, that you'll like the other chapter.
"Edward, please….don't…don't stop" I couldn't hear pain in her voice any more. The next second she was in my arms, my lips traced down her neck, moving to her firm breasts, my hands tracing every rib. Bella's hands were in my hair again. My name escaping from her parted lips. I knew, that I can't lose control anymore - I slowed down me breathing, so it couldn't intoxicate me in a such force.
"Hush, Bella, trust me" I whispered. I forced myself no breathe slowly and keep my mind with me. I kissed Bella's lips carefully at first and then with more passion, she did the same. Our kissed became disorderly, indecent, flaming. Another second I grabbed her with one hand and gently laid her down on the bed. I think at that moment she forgot how to breathe. I covered her body with mine and continued kissing Bella, while my right hand caressed my breast, and left barely noticeable stroked the inside of the thigh. That was enough to her body violently shaken - she began to bend under my shoulders, slightly moaning.
"Do you want me to go on?" I smiled evilly. She opened her eyes in surprise, frozen.
"Don't hold back, love" she replied, trying to tease me.
"You asked me" I growled and clung to her with my lips, almost biting. My mind was a little blurry, but not out of control. When I felt her hands, tracing my stomach again, I felt that I can't wait any more and slowly, but with sufficient force began to sink into her body; Bella clutched claws into my back and didn't even breath. But to no avail, as soon as I penetrated into her, I felt her body bending and heard muffled moan of pain "ah". The wave of pain filled my body. I did hurt her. My love, my life.
I froze immediately. I watched he eyes opened. what I did wrong?
"Bella?" I asked
"Did I hurt you?"
"No, no.." She interrupted me and kissed my lips gently.
"you have to tell me to stop if something is wrong." She nodded in agreement, kissing me again. I didn't really know, how I could think strait in that moment. I've just sink into a woman that was mine. Completely. No matter, how many times I heard these thoughts and read about them, the sense of ownership overwhelmed me with extreme force. My mind became blurry again. I couldn't think – I just could feel her hands in my hair, her hot body, moving, pressed to mine, her legs around my waist, her quickened breathing, her loud heartbeat, her gasps, her tasty beautiful scent.
Further my movement became more intensive and fast. I took her hands clasp them with mine, holding against the bed and tried to move carefully, to hold my weight not pressing her body. When her movements became disorderly and she moaned over and over, it became very difficult not to lose control. I was struggling with the will to tight her, press into me with all force I want.
I didn't exactly understand what was happening in the next moment. Everything exploded into a complete well- being, pleasure, happiness. I felt just her body, connected with mine it felt like we were a cloud of electricity. My mind did not exist anymore. I heard her loud moan and then was only a peace.
I opened my eyes and met her gaze. she was serene, smiling a little. I rolled to my side to lie beside her. she reached my lips with a soft kiss and whispered:
"I love you". Then she moved closer and put her head onto my chest. I grabbed her waist, listening, how her heartbeat slowing and breathing becoming even.
"I love you" I replied, but she was already sleeping.
While my body started to calm down, my mind returned. I wasn't just feeling, I was able to think. My hands were stocking lightly Bella's back. She was tired. Her breathing and heartbeat become steady and slow. She was sweaty, but I felt, her body cooling against mine. I knew that last few days were exhausting for her – the sleepless nights before wedding, a long ceremony, a party through the night, two flights…And now sheneeded to rest. But my body was already full f passion. The vampire was never tired. But her needs were far above mine. So I relaxed.
I was so happy. She forced me to make love and now I knew she was right. I didn't know that I can love her so much. I lied, my arms around her, reminding her gasps and moans, her passionate kisses, almost feeling them again. Everything in the room was filled with her scent.
She was a gift from God to me. I realized that I lived in heaven now. I couldn't feel more graceful to Him to create such a beautiful, loving, perfect human that loved such a monster that I was. We belonged together, forever.
The minutes, while I was thinking passed, and with my vampire vision, I noticed something on her hand, that was l placed on my chest. A dark spot. I felt a wave of horror filling my mind. I leaned closer and smelled it. That was a bruise. Pain ripped through me with such force that I was unable to keep a composed face, and to my horror, I noticed the other bruises, forming down her arm.
Whole the feeling of happiness was replaced by enormous pain, guilt and disgust of myself. How could I do that?! I hurt her. After all the promises I made to myself and to her…After every effort to not to lose control, I lost it. The growl escaped my mouth. Abruptly I was so angry with myself that I wanted to destroy everything in this room, to destroy these hands that hurt my love, the reason of my life. I wanted to escape the room, but when I tried to move, Bella tightened her hug around my chest and moved her head closer to my neck. I didn't know, how to lower my anger. I just turned my face, not able to watch the black spots on Bella's hands. I felt a pillow under my head and bitted it with all anger that overwhelmed me. The pillow exploded by a white cloud of feather that covered me and Bella.
How could I feel complete happiness, while she was yellowing here in my embrace?! I thought, I could do everything perfect for her. I hoped that I would be able to do, what she wanted, what she demanded. My God… If I wasn't so stupid and stubborn with this whole wedding thing, we wouldn't make any deals…
But she wanted this. And she'd demand it, no matter, was the deal or not.
Bella moved and rolled onto her back, so I could move. I moved off the bed, disgusted in myself, what I had done to her. Bella, the reason for my existence, my only love.
I went out the room to the beach. The feeling of guilt was so strong. How could I have done that to her? I groaned quietly. After all we were through, after all horror and pain I brought to her life I caused her physical pain. With my hands. I was horrified with the realization, that she was so close to death in my arms. after so much suffer and fighting my thirst, I could destroy this fragile beautiful soft body with my own hands.
I heard her breathing accelerated. in a second I was beside her. I smelled sweat. Here was too hot for her. I lied down and pressed her to me. She opened her eyes for a second and closed them with a slight smile.

There is not enough time in the day nor room on this blog to describe the many ways I love this collection… or the entire site for that matter. And that's not just because I learned about it when someone submitted this site for This Next.
Yep, it's a bit macabre. But I have to keep the rings for posterity- or at least for the kids to pawn one day. So I may as well give them a fitting resting place.
From the site:
The Wedding Ring Coffin is made of solid wood and has a dark glossy mahogany finish. The coffin measures 6 1/4" long x 2 1/4" wide x 2 3/8" high . The interior is lined with black velvet and includes a ring insert to comfortably and securely hold your wedding ring.
Your Wedding Ring Coffin comes with an engraved brass plaque bearing a message which conveys your final thoughts about your marriage. Choose from one of our standard messages or create your own unique personal message.
Four metal handles which match the brass plaque provide the finishing touch. The split lid gives you the option for an open or closed casket.
Each coffin is tastefully packaged in a quality gift box.

.- The Italian journal Civiltá Cattolica, which is published by the Jesuits, has proposed that the Internet be considered "mission territory," with evangelization efforts aimed at the "second lives" of people in the online world.
Those familiar with the Internet know that the last few years have seen the introduction of new virtual worlds online. Of particular note is the game Second Life, which allows users to assume a persona and engage in everyday activities from shopping to sleeping.
Residents can explore, meet other Residents, socialise, participate in individual and group activities, create and trade property and provide services for one another - all paid for using the world's virtual currency (which costs actual money).
The creators of the Second Life world, Linden Research Inc., say about 7 million users have been registered, but it is unclear how many people regularly participate through their avatars.
In their article on Second Life and the digital world, Civiltá Cattolica assesses the risks and opportunities of the worldwide phenomenon of Second Life and underscores that religious elements should be present there as well.
"Any initiative capable of encouraging these 'environments' in a positive way should be considered opportune" for the virtual lives that people create on the Internet. "The digital world is, in its own way, mission territory," the article states.
Recently, Second Life's creators took the step of enriching its places of prayer, mosques, churches, cathedrals and convents with avatars keen to meditate and find God.

4 Stocks Under $10 Moving Higher
Velti (VELT) is a global provider of mobile marketing and advertising technology and solutions. This stock is trading up 3.7% at $7.98 in recent trading.
Today's Range: $7.71-$8.3052-Week Range: $4.99-$14.65 Volume: 770,000 Three-Month Average Volume: 923,295 >>4 Tech Stocks Set to Shine From a technical perspective, VELT is trending higher here with decent volume. This move is quickly pushing VELT within range of triggering a major breakout trade. That trade will hit once VELT clears some near-term overhead resistance levels at $8.04 to $8.61 with high volume. Traders should now look for long-biased traders in VELT as long as its trending above its 50-day, and then once it sustains a move or close above those breakout levels with volume that's near or above 923,295 shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then VELT will have an excellent chance of hitting $11 to $12 in the near future. Keep in mind that any high-volume close above VELT's 200-day moving average of $8.48 should be considered bullish technical price action.

Brittany Murphy says she has never snorted cocaine before and that it isn't the reason she's gotten so skinny. She insists, "I have never tried it in my entire life. I've never seen it. I am also way too high-strung. I can't even take a Sudafed. Can you imagine? My God, I think my heart would explode!" Have you ever seen this girl in real life? I think she's serious about the heart exploding thing. She's like a really hyper version of that Taco Bell dog that everybody hates. Anyways, after her breakup with Ashton Kutcher and broken engagement to an industry big-wig, she says she's now dating a normal guy from Brooklyn which she met when he was hired to hang Christmas lights at her house. Although I'm not sure when hanging Christmas lights turned into a profession. That's a job I think I could see myself doing. Ya know, if I was an idiot.

Hi Andres,
