Darkness Calling Ch. 15bymadam_noe©
Hugh woke, scared. He had been with his parents when the COM officers had come to their home and taken him away. He'd fought, the guards were two level eights and only one ten, but he had been knocked out with a tranquilizer. As far as he considered, using human technology was simply cheating.
He was scared because of where he woke but that he woke with missing time was nothing new. It had been happening more and more; he would be eating dinner or talking on the phone one moment and the next he woke hours later in a strange place and snow on his boots. Once he had even woken with the taste of burning amber magic on his gloves...the scent of their leader Blackfoot.
For all these times he had never woken in a COM dungeon. Most witches owned computers, drove cars, had cable television, in other words adapted to human technology, but not when it came to prisons. He was in a cell, the floor strewn with hay, the walls wet stone, the only bench hung from the wall on chains. The bars were spelled, a spell he sensed came from five level tens, and the cell walls and dungeon itself had additional barrier spells. He could teleport from one end of the 6x6' cell to the other and that was it.
Suddenly the sound of footsteps and voices came with the rasp of a heavy door opening. From the bench where Hugh slumped he looked up to see four pairs of boots facing him, COM guards in full archaic uniform stood shining their flashlights into the cell. When they were satisfied they parted and between two of them stepped a fine gentleman Hugh recognized as the Lord High Legal Council Kenn Mountaincloud, the chief of police in the capital.
"Hugh, are you clear headed?"
Hugh spat into the hay. "Tranquilizers are tools women use...and level twos, at that." He looked at the guards and sneered. Trained well they did not move, so Hugh turned his mocking smile on Mountaincloud. "Why am I here? I demand a lawyer!"
"Hugh," Mountaincloud smiled and smoothed his long red hair back. "You've been watching too much television. Our laws are not human. Now, will you cooperate, or shall I bespell you?"
"I'm a level ten, you're welcome to try." Before those words fully passed his lips the level ten guard's hand flashed up and he peeled Hugh's power from him.
"Hey!" Hugh cried, standing, and then Mountaincloud's spell hit him.
"Did you try to grab Selene Nightraven, wife of Soren Nightraven, Highest Councilor to our Leader?"
"I don't remember."
Mountaincloud frowned. His spell was powerful and this was the truth, but Hugh was giving the wrong answer. "The night of Samhain, where were you?"
"At the Nightstar family party."
"When did you arrive?"
"Seven, after dinner."
"When did you leave?"
"I don't know."
Mountaincloud frowned again. "What is the last thing you remember at the party?"
"I was talking with my friends and eating shrimp, two hours after I arrived."
"And the next thing you remember?"
"Waking up at home early this morning to the sound of the guards banging on the door."
"And you remember nothing in between?"
Hugh began to shake. "Thoughts, dirty thoughts, my cock...it ached, I want to fuck someone but I didn't really want to. I only watched."
"Watched who?"
"I only ever watch, and I don't remember."
"Hugh, who could bespell you?"
Hugh began to scream, and at Mountaincloud's signal a guard shot him with another dart and Hugh collapsed on the floor silent at last.
Moutaincloud turned to his secretary. "I believe someone used a compulsion spell on this young man. We'll need to examine his magic which Theodore now holds, as well as his body. Get me Nightraven."
"But sir, Soren Nightraven is the one who raised the complaint."
Mountaincloud slipped his leather gloves back on and sighed. "The elder Nightraven, you fool. He's the expert here. All the same I want to speak with the younger Nightravens."
His secretary closed his eyes and cast a seeking spell, then opened them nervously. "I cannot sense them."
Mountaincloud sighed again, impatiently. "Honeymoooners. I shall travel to the younger Nightraven's townhouse. In the meantime get his father here."
"Yes sir," the secretary scurried after and the guards followed out of the dungeons.
Hugh lay on the floor struggling for consciousness. He felt naked without his power, confused, scared. The name Nightraven struck terror into his heart, but it was no man who troubled him. It was a woman of pure evil.
The next thing he heard was the voice of Desmond Nightraven. The man was known far and wide though he'd never been appointed a political office. It was said he was Blackfoot's backdoor man, his spy, his confidential secretary, and some aid all three.
Hugh lifted one eyelid slowly and saw the aquamarine light bouncing off the walls. Strong hands turned him over to his back.
"Drink this," Nightraven said and helped Hugh to sit, lifting a cup to his lips.
Hugh gulped down the liquid and then Nightraven dropped him like a stone. Hugh watched as the older man waved his hands over his body, seeking magic. At his stomach Nightraven frowned. "Careless bitch, she left a trace," he muttered.
Nightraven extracted from him a spell bred so deep it seem anchored to his organs. Hugh cried out softly, biting his lip. "W-who? Wh-what?" Suddenly his body was wracked by a massive cramp and nausea an he felt as parched as if he'd crossed a great desert. "What was in that drink?"
Nightraven stood and loomed over him. "I'm tired of cleaning up her mistakes, and shamed she used a messenger to do the dirty work assigned her. That is my own potion, one of the ancients. Diluted, it is called sleep. This mixture I call death."
Hugh's eyes widened and the world dimmed to black.
Selene felt a shiver pass over her as they emerged. The small group stood in a stone hallway lined with doors of every shape and size and it seemed to go on forever. "What is this?"
"The meeting of dimensions. Humans can also travel this though it is rarer, and the older ones called it the Gough," Bram replied. "That means the hall of souls, but each door is to a dimension. See the gate to ours." He turned and flourished his hand to show them their reality lay guarded by a wood door with an iron ring and a small slit in the middle filled with a standard rainbow of colored glass.
"Do not leave my side unless by my command and if we do get separated thing the words 'to the hall' while you cast a teleportation spell. They take you to this hall. Come to our door, it will bring you back to the Dark Temple."
Both couples held hands, feeling nervous as he turned back and led them down several doors to a red door that seemed to be made of a brittle plastic, the "knob" for it a simple braided rope of what seemed to be horsehair.
"Here is where we shall go."
He opened it and they stepped into what appeared to be the temple room they had left. Through the windows however the sky seemed to be a pulsing red tapestry of clouds.
"What is this?" Jonathon asked.
Bram closed the door behind them and it winked out of existence. "This is a realm where only creatures of magic dwell. Once there were more than witches; there were werewolves, vampires, others, many, many others. They call it the Dreaming, it is made up of the spark of human dreams from all the realms, here our magic is amplified, good or bad. Long ago there was a war between the witches and a group who possessed dominion over souls, and we won. Now only witches live here, those who do may dwell in any dimension they choose, any time they choose. It is easy to get lost here, so here is where I have hidden my new generation of recruits."
He led them to narrow winding stairs and down they went in a tower, passing by many empty rooms. Here there was no religion of the Dark, just a temple with no one to worship inside. After long minutes they reached the bottom where the cold stone had been livened up with silks on the walls, benches, couches, and pillows, and candles gleamed with magic.
There were about eight witches there, four light, four dark, all of them between 17 and 30, and when they saw Bram enter they smiled.
"I bring new students. My friends, I present you Sigrid and Jonathon Whitebloom, the coup that is Soren Nightraven, and most happily, my own daughter Selene-" He looked back at her to see her preferred last name. Selene squeezed her husband's hand and said with pride, "Nightraven." "-Nightraven!" Bram announced lightly.
There had been great buzzing at the pronouncement of Soren but at Selene the people broke free and ran to them. She lost her grip on Soren as they hugged her, touched her hand, gazed at her in shock.
Selene blushed and tried to gallantly push them off but it was Soren who muscled his way in and put his arm around her. "What is all this?"
"You're the one we've been waiting for, the proof that this works," said one small blond woman, slim and elfin with an easy smile.
"On her own yes, she would be immortal, but her fate is tied to her soul mate's, and he is here to learn the secrets we all have learned."
All eyes swung to Soren. A public figure, he was used to this, but still tired from the ordeal and he could feel Selene shaking.
"We need food and rest, perhaps we can assemble a meeting after?"
Bram nodded to his son-in-law. "I'll show you to private rooms. Filene, prepare meals for our guests." He led them back around the stairwell to a hall. More bright colors and magic candles tried to cheer it up but that this had once been a fortress and this level dungeons was still apparent.
At the end there was a large door, and lining the halls smaller ones. He stopped and opened the lat two before the end. "These lock only from the inside, there are large beds, all you will need. Be careful, your magic is magnified here. Your food will be here shortly. I too will rest and in three hours we will begin our first lessons."
Bram kissed his daughter on her forehead and nodded to the others. The couples broke off, weak and weary, and closed the doors.
Once inside Selene embraced Soren and held him close.
He smoothed her hair and kissed her head. "We'll be all right."
"Thank you," she whispered, pulling back.
"For what?"
She smiled and steadied her nerves. "I understand we are two people in an extraordinary situation. I understand you are a man used to control and I feel very much like girl who has never held any power. Until now it has felt all too often that you took and I gave, but today you gave me the gift of your trust."
Part of him wanted to argue a point or two in there, but Soren was enough of a political animal to know when to keep his big mouth shut.
Good boy, Selene said in his mind, laughing aloud. She kissed him and it was sweet. He knew better than to turn it to passion, even as his body thrummed with need. She tasted to him of sweet spicy jasmine, he to her as the sharp but blunt taste of cinnamon.
Her hands trembled, sliding up his arms, and then a knock came. "Your food," a feminine voice said. The lovers parted, laughing and Selene opened the door.
The blond woman grinned at them and wheeled in a cart covered with silver and flatware. She brought it in as they finally looked around noticed the large bed, desk, and small table, two doors leading to a closet and to a bath.
She stopped by the table and set down plates and flatware, cloth napkins. "Beef stew today, fresh baked biscuits, salad, fruit, and chocolate pudding. We eat simply here, but fully. Humans would call it an Epicurean approach, well those who knew the true meaning of the word."
"Thank you," Soren said.
"Wine to drink, from this realm. You shall not get drunk, drink your fill, the taste is sweet but goes well with the stew. Enjoy!" she bowed slightly and slipped out the door.
Selene was famished and so was Soren. They sat down and served themselves, eating with gusto. "This is delicious," Soren said after his first bite of stew.
"And most welcome. For all that the magic of light and dark can do to heal us there is nothing like food."
Soren frowned at that and Selene finished chewing a bite of buttered bread. "What?"
"What your father has said is true. If you were immortal time and magic would be all you need, but this food...I can feel it helping. I am mortal and I weaken you."
She set down the bread and dabbed at her lips with a napkin before sliding her hand along his on the table. "Soren, this is a choice we can make together. Our fates aligned...we stand together, we fall together. It's not about being immortal; it's about knowing a secret that could save us or destroy us. It's about changing society, re-writing the rules. This is something we must decide together.
"I had a very simple life before I met you. No family but the McPhersons, nothing to live for but the dream of a job like yours, shaping policy. To choose this path means choosing my father, my family, my history...my power. For you it's turning your back on so much of that."
He sighed and covered her hand on his with his other. "It is a lot to think of, and I know I must choose carefully, but when I close my eyes...I don't worry about my job, my reputation, and my family is dead to me now, all but Sigrid. All I worry about is your safety, mine, our happiness."
She smiled. "Let's finish our meal without such heavy thoughts. I suggest we commit to this meeting, this first lesson, but give ourselves time to come to a decision."
He nodded and they ate in silence. When they finished Selene sensed his heavy thoughts still occupying his mind so she sat back and called her animal.
It burst from her chest, still a butterfly, but it was huge, the wings making an audible whoosh with every stroke of their combined 6-foot span.
She gasped and giggled. "We were warned our magic was amplified here."
Soren called forth his and the bunny that came from it was something out of a human cartoon show, sitting on the floor it was almost 6 feet tall itself.
He laughed to and reached out to it, stroking the fur gently and shivering as he tickled himself. "By the goddess this is incredible!"
Selene called her butterfly back and it managed to merge once more with her magic. She pulled a chunk of carrot from the stew and called the bunny.
"Selene, you know it can't eat real food!"
She smiled at him and jerked the carrot from the bunny, instead smoothing both hands over it. Soren nearly jumped. "All magic is intensified," she murmured, and turned her hands to the beast's belly.
He growled and with magic called the beast back. Blinking she found them naked on the bed and Soren was wild. Her mind shut down as he kissed her, his hands almost bruising her with the intensity of his touch. She scored her nails across his muscles, bit his plush lower lip, and bucked against him, begging him to enter her without words.
For once he did not hesitate and slammed in. That was when the magic began, feeling so solidly like his mouth was on both breasts and covering her pussy even as he slammed in. She called up her own and felt his pleasure in her mind as he felt her mouth close gently around his balls, ghostly fingers daring to delve ever so gently between his clenched butt cheeks.
They built up fast and hard, riding each other on pure, mad passion. He thrust into her like a man possessed and she felt her body tighten and liquefy, struggling, straining for the shimmering peak, and then it was there. She screamed wordlessly and was almost drowned out by his hoarse shout of climax.
They shuddered as one, locked together, reveling purely in the feel and taste of one another before the energy left them, deflating their bodies, yet the gift of dark magic healed them even as they lay replete.
"Mmmm," was all Selene could think to say, her thoughts echoing the sound.
He stroked her arm, rolling aside he kissed a nipple gently smiling at how it puckered anew. "My thoughts exactly. You're in danger, Selene, more than ever. I know your father has given us promises of immortality but I want you to keep training on dueling. Until I achieve this balance your father speaks of I make you weak. You have to learn how to fight."
She knew what he was saying was the truth but in her heart of hearts she was no fighter. Dark or light magic she was a scholar, a healer.
Soren, privy to her thoughts as the link between them was lazily left unguarded in the wake of passion, frowned. "Sigrid and Jonathon are both scholars, bookworms by their own admission, and yet both are good, strong fighters. It is why I wanted them to instruct you; you share much in common. Violence should always be a last resort but know not everyone feels this way."
"I wish we could stay here. Protected, away from the world. It's' only going too get worse, you know."
"I know, my love, but we're strong, and together we're unstoppable. Now rest for a spell, and when we wake we'll start to work through this and figure it out from there."
They turned on their sides and snuggled close together, nestled like spoons, and she raised his hand and kissed his knuckles before letting it fall back. "I'll do my best to trust the future will take care of itself."
He made no reply and even his mind was silent.
That night they met with the group, everyone seated as Bram talked, and in his robes it all resembled a hippie commune to Selene. When all there but the guests agreed that the transformation was something done alone, Soren volunteered to meet privately with Bram first while Selene trained with the Whiteblooms.
She groaned under her breath and only Soren heard her lamentation in her mind. He patted her shoulder and bussed her cheek before leaving.
The rest of the converts kept staring at Selene and she felt uncomfortable so they decided to find another place to practice.
It was another two hours of peeling magic but harder than before. Here their magic was amplified. Before Sigrid's magic felt like a lake, now it was an ocean. Selene nearly passed out her first three attempts and so they turned to spooling.
Spooling was siphoning off magic slowly. Bram was powerful enough to gift his magic that way, as he had to help her heel Soren, but for lesser witches spooling was done by force. If Selene had attended a normal school for witchcraft as a child she would have spent years learning this, building up her reserve space to store magic.
Here in this dimension it was the perfect exercise. Sigrid's magic was amped up, so was everyone's, and so spooling here was no mere child's trick.
They practiced on and on until Selene felt the link between her and Soren, as small as possible, slam shut.
The energy she had spooled snapped back to Sigrid, knocking her into Jonathon. "What is it?"
"Soren!" Without conscious thought she teleported herself to his side. They were in a study much like her father's back in their own dimension and Soren lay on the couch, crumpled, but breathing, alive.
"What happened!?!" she asked her father and rushed to her husband's side.
"He attained it faster than any other student I have ever seen. It's deep magic, we had to go into the cells, call up the memory of his father's white magic by birth, his mother's dark magic, and marry them together fully.
"He mentioned as a youth before his first manifestation of power it was thought by his peers he was a light witch. Perhaps he had this all along, and I only helped him realize it."
Soren opened one eye. "Bullshit," he muttered ungallantly and tried to sit.
Selene helped him and Bram summoned a glass of water with magic and passed it over. "Drink," she said, flooded with relief when their link returned.
"I never felt anything like that," Soren said after a long gulp. "So that's it? I'm immortal? Selene's immortal? We're safe?"
Bram raised a dark brow. "Safe is relative, you are in anther dimension with the man all witches call the devil. I wouldn't say you're safe. Immortal yes, but we must prove it. You both must take bolts from a level ten. I and a convert will assist and should you not withstand the bolt we will draw off damage to keep you alive. I suggest we wait until tomorrow."

Solid US Job Gains Could Bolster 2nd-half Growth
U.S. automakers are reporting their best sales since the recession, a sign that Americans are confident enough in their finances to make large purchases. Car sales rose 14 percent in July from 12 months earlier to 1.3 million.
Healthy sales have encouraged more hiring by Ford Motor Co. The company said last week that it will hire 800 salaried professionals this year, mostly in areas such as information technology, product development and quality control.
The steady job growth this year has been supported by the comeback in the housing industry. Home prices and sales have been improving. In June, Americans bought new homes at the fastest pace in five years, a trend that could spur more construction and generate higher-paying jobs. So far this year, most of the added jobs have been in lower-paying areas, such as restaurants, bars and retail stores.
The strong job growth this year has begun to increase average pay after years of stagnation. Average hourly pay rose at an annual rate of 3.1 percent in the April-June quarter, according to Joe Carson, an economist at Alliance Bernstein. That's likely one reason consumer confidence has risen in recent months.

Does LG have a 5.5 inch LG Gx coming?
But the LG Gx is supposedly coming to market with a 5.5 inch screen. That tops the 5.2 inches on the LG G2. Here is where this rumor might fall apart. Despite the quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor on the LG G2, the LG Gx is expected to carry a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 under the hood. In addition, back in June, LG said that all of it's "G" series phones would feature the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800. So far, LG has kept this promise.
Assuming that it will actually be the Snapdragon 800 driving the model, the Gx will purportedly feature 2GB of RAM and 32GB of native storage. A 13MP rear-facing camera is on board and the 3140mAh battery slightly tops the 3000mAh cell on the current flagship model. The phone will support LTE-A.
There is no word when the LG Gx might see the light of day, if it ever does. Perhaps we will soon see this model getting its Bluetooth or Global Certification,or getting run through a benchmark test. What we're trying to say is that if the LG Gx is for real, we should start to see it pop up in the usual spots, like the FCC or seen in a render tweeted by evleaks.
Is LG prepping a new flagship model called the LG Gx?
Thanks,Anonymous Tipster!

It's kind of sad that a 4.7" phone is called a mini now haha. Oh well :P i'm not complaining. I'm loving the 5"-5.5" phones and keep it coming.
7. E.S.1 (Posts: 294; Member since: 14 Sep 2013)
That would be awesome. I just switched from Samsung to LG G2 and I couldn't be happier.
If this is a pro version of my phone I may consider getting one.

Indeed, her house dominates the neighborhood, with hundreds of whimsical items for the holiday. Sheppard is shown at her home on Bettman Road in Spokane Valley, on Wednesday. SR photo/Jesse Tinsley
Saturday's Valley Voice was packed full of stories (and quite a few election advertisements), so lets get right to the highlights. Reporter Lisa Leinberger stopped by the home of the Queen of Halloween, aka Chris Sheppard. Her home turns into a festival of the orange and spooky every year and this year is no different. She starts decorating the inside of her home in August but waits until September to start putting in the skeleton crawling out of its grave in the yard.
Correspondent Steve Christilaw has a story on the University High School girls soccer team, which is rallying after losing one of its star players in a car crash recently. The team had a small ceremony at their recent home game. The Spokane Valley Lodging Tax Advisory Commission recently met to make recommendations for 2014 funding to agencies that promote tourism.
We also had a ton of election coverage Saturday since ballots have now been delivered. Correspondent Valerie Putnam tackled the Millwood Mayor race between Kevin Freeman and Dennis Hamlin while Lisa covered the East Valley School District school board and Liberty Lake City Council. There was also a candidate forum last week featuring those running for Spokane Valley City Council.
Don't look now, but ballots for the November general election are about to hit your mailbox. Candidate forums are scheduled this week for East Valley School District board of directors and Liberty Lake City Council. Additional forums are planned for the coming weeks.
Tonight the candidates for the East Valley school board will face off from 6:30to 8:30 p.m. at the Starr Road Baptist Church, 4720 N. Starr Road. Those attending will be able to write down questions, which will be placed in a bucket and drawn at random by a moderator.
The Greater Spokane Valley Chamber of Commerce is hosting a forum for the Liberty Lake City Council candidates Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. at the Meadowood Technology campus dining room at 2100 N. Molter Road.
Just about every city with a council meeting scheduled for next week is doing a bit of shuffling to avoid the Fourth of July holiday on Wednesday. The only exception is Spokane Valley, which will have its council meeting at its normal time at 6 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall, 11707 E. Sprague.
The Fairfield City Council is moving its Tuesday meeting to Monday at 7 p.m. at City Hall at 218 E. Main in Fairfield. The Rockford City Council is moving its meeting from Wednesday to Tuesday at 7 p.m. at City Hall at 20 W. Emma in Rockford. The City of Liberty Lake is moving its Tuesday meeting to July 10.
The Liberty Lake City Council has called a special meeting for 7 p.m. tonight at City Hall 22710 E. Country Vista Drive. There will be a discussion on the city administrator interview process and the city's budget, followed by public comment. The majority of the meeting will be an executive session for the council to review applications for the city administrator position.

At the top of today's Valley Voice is news that residents along south Evergreen will have their street fully repaved this summer after a new water line is installed underneath it. This week the Spokane Valley City Council approved using city money to repave the road.
Reporter Lisa Leinberger has a report on the Liberty Lake City Council meeting, where council members voted to not change their attendance policy. It was the topic of some discussion last year after a couple of council members had accumulated several absences.

We've got some great reads in today's Valley Voice. Correspondent Cindy Hval has a powerful story on the Santos family, who were involved in a collision with a drunk driver last summer. The family has been supported by the community as they slowly recover.
Recently retired Spokane Valley City Council member Bill Gothmann recently took a look back at his work with the city that dates back to before incorporation. He talked about his accomplishments and frustrations, but said overall that he has no regrets.
Reporter Lisa Leinberger attended the first Liberty Lake City Council meeting with new mayor Steve Peterson. It was a well attended, festive meeting with the swearing in of Peterson and two new council members. It was announced during the meeting that councilman Ryan Romney has resigned. The city is now accepting applications for a replacement to finish his term.

Thursday brings you another edition of the Valley Voice on your front porch (or on your computer screen). In today's edition reporter Lisa Leinberger has a story on the Reading Buddies program at Opportunity Elementary School. The school brings in volutneers from Eastpoint Church to help third graders practice their reading skills.
There was an interesting twist at this week's Spokane Valley City Council meeting, where a council member said that Valleyfest organizers had been offered money in years past to not apply for lodging tax funding. The discussion was part of the ongoing debate over the council's decision to not grant Valleyfest any lodging tax money this year.
Lisa also has a story on several decisions made by the Liberty Lake City Council. The council voted to approve the 2012 budget, pay of a golf course bond and reduce the city's utility tax to 3 percent. The Clock Tower in Riverfront Park isn't in Spokane Valley, of course, but it is a regional icon. Correspondent Stefanie Pettit has a story on the landmark and the man who keeps it running.

Here we are again on another lovely Monday morning, which means it is time to look at the Saturday Valley Voice highlights. The city of Spokane Valley is working on breaking in its first brand new snow plow, which was ordered last year but didn't arrive until April. It will be the only white plow truck you see out on the road.
Reporter Lisa Leinberger highlighted the high number of absences at the Liberty Lake City Council, which was brought into focus last week when the council meeting didn't have a quorum for nearly an hour. The Mayor is considering a chance to the council's absentee rule.
The state Public Disclosure Commission has decided not to persue a camplaint filed against former Spokane Valley City Council candidate Marilyn Cline. The complaint was filed in October. Spokane County has wrapped up sewer construction work in the Valley for the season, but residents in the Green Haven neighborhood can expect to see crews back in the spring. Large boulders and old concrete irrigation system conduits slowed work so much that the project wasn't completed in time.

Saturday's Valley Voice is packed to the gills with news from the Spokane Valley area. Correspondent Steve Christilaw checked in with the Central Valley High School football team, which has had a successful season. Spokane Valley City Council candidate Ben Wick has clinched a win over competitor Marilyn Cline to take a seat on the council. Wick was ahead by only 20 votes on election night, but he drew further ahead as the vote counting continued.
Reporter Lisa Leinberger has a story on last week's Liberty Lake City Council meeting, which operated without a quorum for a while. The Spokane Valley City Council, after much discussion and a close vote, agreed to allow city staff to apply for a grant to build a decant facility to process the waste removed from the city's drywells. The council also unanimously approved the 2012 budget.
Fire District 8, Fire District 13 and the town of Rockford are regrouping after fire levies and bonds failed at the November polls. Each is considering how to move forward after voters rejected their request for money. Commissioners from the Spokane Valley Fire Department heard a presentation on their 2012 budget last week, which includes the construction of a new Station 6.

There are a lot of stories to highlight from today's Valley Voice, so let's get started. We hae city council candidate Q&A stories from Spokane Valley and Liberty Lake. Today we are highlighting Dean Grafos and John Carroll in Spokane Valley and Shane Brickner and Keith Kopelson in Liberty Lake. The rest of the candidates will be featured in Saturday's Valley Voice.
A complaint has been filed with the PDC against Spokane Valley City Council candidate Marilyn Cline alleging that she is running a hairdressing business out of her home without declaring in on her financial affairs statement. Reporter Lisa Leinberger has a story on how a grant fromTarget allowed Adams Elementary to buy books for its library and volunteers also showed up to redecorate.
The city of Spokane Valley and Spokane County are in the early stages of discussions about turning the old Milwaukee Railroad right-of-way into a mixed use trail. At one point the city wanted to use the land, which is still owned by the County, to extend Appleway Blvd. to the east.
Liberty Lake Mayor Wendy Van Orman presented her proposed 2012 budget to the city council this week. It calls for reducing the city's new utility tax to three percent while purchasing a new police car, getting a new records management system for the police department and completing phase two of the city's arboretum.

SR photo/J. Bart Rayniak
The November election is getting closer and our candidate coverage continues in today's Valley Voice with a story by Lisa Leinberger on the recent Rally in the Valley debate this week. Candidates for Liberty Lake Mayor and Liberty Lake City Council answered questions from students on current issues facing the city.
Lisa also checked out a few new towns - Bakersville, New City and Cobbleton. The cities are part of a huge model railroad layout created by the Evergreen Railroad Modelers. The cities are very detailed, right down to the cars in parking lots and shrubs dotting the hillsides.
The Spokane Valley City Council tackled several issues this week. The agreed to send a letter to Spokane County expressing their displeasure at being asked to subsidize the city of Spokane in a regional animal shelter plan after Spokane said it would only join the effort if their costs don't go up. They also had a split vote approving the first reading of the proposed Bike and Pedestrian Master Program.
This week's Liberty Lake police blotter includes a report on a citizen coming to the rescue of a police officer fighting with a suspect.

There's news from all over in today's Valley Voice. Reporter Pia Hallenberg checked in with Mascot Man, who fills the suits of various mascots in the area. We have the full story on Monday's special Spokane Valley City Council meeting, where the council voted to put one-way Sprague on the November ballot along with a $2.1 million bond to pay for it. That is down from the initial proposal for a $6.4 million project, which briefly went up to $7 million before the council vote.
In other Spokane Valley news, the city quietly hired an interim deputy city manager last week. Longtime residents may recognize Roger Crum, who worked for the City of Spokane for more than 20 years as a deputy city manager and city manager. As City Manager Mike Jackson said on Monday, "He retired in 2004 and has been working full time ever since."
Some Liberty Lake residents can now get a reprieve from the city's new utility tax. The Liberty Lake City Council voted this week to allow utility tax rebates for low income seniors and low income disabled residents. Correspondent Cindy Hval spoke to a couple who train German Shepherds for protection and for police work.
Flaggers direct traffic on Bowdish Road just south of Sprague, July 11,while utility work is completed in the area. There have been several cases so far this year where utility workers have severed natural gas lines in Spokane Valley in residential neighborhoods. SR photo/J. Bart Rayniak
There's a ton of news to catch up on in today's Valley Voice. Let's begin with a little primer on what you should do if there is an outdoor natural gas leak in your neighborhood. It's something that has happened a lot this year as construction crews dug up gas lines. According to the experts, you should leave the area if you can smell the gas inside your home. But if your windows are shut and you can't smell any gas, you should be fine.
Some Spokane Valley City Council members took aim at the proposed Bike and Pedestrian Master Program this week. In the end they decided there were too many questions to advance it to a first reading, so there will be another study session held on the plan. It hasn't been scheduled yet, but I'll be sure and let everyone know when the date is set.
You can also get your first look at the cash being donated to city council candidates, who has the money and who it is coming from. Reporter Lisa Leinberger has a story on this week's discussion on the new utility tax at the Liberty Lake City Council meeting. She also checked in with three local churches who sent volunteers to Central Valley School District schools last weekend to do landscaping and other projects.
And if there are any fans of Chicken out there, correspondent Stefanie Pettit has another update. Apparently Miss Chicken is now a mother. I just love reading about that bird.

Wecome to another rainy Thursday. I think the sunshine we had the last couple days was all just an illusion. But that's okay, because we have plenty of stories in today's Valley Voice to keep you busy. Reporter Lisa Leinberger has two great stories on the cover today. The first is about the last day of school at East Valley's Mountain View Middle School, which has closed for good. It was an emotional day for students and teachers alike. They tried to have a happy last day, but tears flowed when it came time to say goodbye and get on the buses for the last time.
In the second story she talks to new Contract Based Education graduate Johnny Martinez, whose controversial artwork was vandalized during the school's graduation celebration. Some pieces were completely destroyed while others were only slightly damaged. One piece is missing.
Today we also have the full story on the new scenic byway between Rockford and Tekoa. The Liberty Lake City Council met this week and voted not to change its invocation policy and not to put the city manager form of government on the November ballot.

For Thursday's Valley Voice reporter Lisa Leinberger visited Mountain View Middle School on the last day of school before the building closed for good. Her story will be in the Voice and photographer Dan Pelle put together an online slideshow here. She will also have a story on some recent vandalism at Contract Based Education, a West Valley alternative school.
There will be a report on the Liberty Lake City Council meeting where there were votes on whether to put a goverment change on the November ballot and whether to change the council's procedure for invocations. My story on the Highway 27 scenic byway between Rockford and Tekoa will run tomorrow - this time, all of it. The ending was missing in Saturday's Valley Voice so we are rerunning it. We will also have last week's Liberty Lake crime blotter, which we were not able to fit in on Saturday.
Several members of the Spokane Valley City Council are attending the annual Association of Washington Cities conference this week, so there will not be a city council meeting tonight. But the Liberty Lake City Council has a couple of interesting things on their agenda tonight. They are set to have a workshop discussion on the central business district, vote on amending the council's rules of procedure regarding the invocation and vote on a resolution to put the city's form of government on the November ballot. The meeting starts at 7 p.m. at City Hall, 22710 E. Country Vista Drive.
The Liberty Lake City Council has announced that it will have a special meeting at 6 p.m. tonight at City Hall, 22710 E. Country Vista Drive. The meeting is to discuss the city's form of government and whether the city should change the way it operates. It could be an interesting discussion.

I suggest on this lovely, bright and sunshine filled day that we first spend a little time checking out today's Valley Voice. The congregation of the Valley Fourth Memorial Church plan to dedicate a new veterans memorial on May 29, which of course is the Sunday of Memorial Day Weekend. It will honor all the local military members who have been killed in action since 9/11.
The Spokane Valley City Councl picked Positive Change architect Chuck Hafner to fill the vacant seat in their ranks, a move that probably doesn't surprise anyone. The Farm Fresh Fruit stand on Argonne just south of Sprague has been having problems with complaints and a feud with a neighbor factors into that.
Reporter Lisa Leinberger was in attendance at the Liberty Lake City Council meeting this week when the council members discussed whether or not to continue having prayer at the beginning of each meeting. And for those of you who followed the exploits of Chicken, Spokane Valley's most famous bird, correspondent Stefanie Pettit has an update on the popular fowl.

Remember when protecting women's rights was given as a justification for invading countries? Well, the U.S. general in northern Iraq has added pregnancy to the reasons why a soldier could be court-martialed—a list that includes selling weapons and taking drugs. —JCL
The BBC:
A US Army general in northern Iraq has defended his decision to add pregnancy to the list of reasons a soldier under his command could face court martial.
It is current army policy to send pregnant soldiers home, but Maj Gen Anthony Cucolo told the BBC he was losing people with critical skills.
That was why the added deterrent of a possible court martial was needed, he said.
The new policy applies both to female and male soldiers, even if married.
Maj. Gen. Anthony Cucolo, leader of the U.S. Army in northern Iraq, instituted the new pregnancy policy, which applies even to married couples who are at war together.

This is an exquisite small round valentine red and clear rhinestone pin. All of the rhinestones sparkle brightly. There are mostly round ice rhinestones. There is also one valentine red rhinestone in the center which is depressed to a lower level. There are also slivered red baguettes around the circumference of this beautiful vintage pin. The pin itself has two or three different layers. I have tried to show this in my photographs of the back of this vintage pin. All of the rhinestones are prong set. There is a vintage V shaped clasp which works well. This is an elegant small red and ice vintage rhinestone pin. The quality of the stones and the intricacy of the workmanship are superb.

It"s no secret that the tragic murders by Elliot Rodger are effectively the news of the week.
But there is one group of people who had to intervene.
It is no secret right wing Americans and the NRA defend guns to the hilt as a method of rejecting tyranny by killing beer cans and paper silhouettes. And that when guns are used to kill the usual parade of the NRA begins. This time powered by Joe the Plumber. The man who proved that complete pig ignorance was the driving force of the Tea Party and that Joe the Plumber seriously supported laws and plans that were harmful to himself. [Read more…]

(CNN) -- A bus carrying Albanian university students plunged hundreds of feet into a ravine Monday, killing at least 12 people according to police.
Rescuers were working Monday to free students who may be trapped inside the bus, located at the bottom of a deep ravine near the city of Himara, about 136 km (86 miles) south of the capital of Tirana.
19 killed in bus accident in Peru
According to police, the driver of the private bus carrying about 49 female students from Aleksander Xhuvani University of Elbasan tried to stop the bus for some reason but failed. The vehicle left the road and fell 150 meters (492 feet) into ravine below.
In addition to the dead, about two dozen students were badly injured, according to police.
Journalist Auron Tare contributed to this report.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

It has been bloody hot over this side of the world, and my current long sleeve riding shirt is starting to feel more and more like I am wrapped in plastic wrap on my longer rides at this time of the year. Heat exhausting is a real issue that I face on every ride due to the amount of hours I am putting down on the bike, and the amount of fluid that pours out of my body in the process.
As a result I am on a hunt for a new shirt. Open to suggestions for both long and short sleeve options. My current shirt is a long sleeve option, primarily because I get sunburnt before I even get a chance to work up a sweat. Having said that, I am more than happy to give short sleeve a go and just throw on some SPF.
Needs to be suited for 38-42deg heat and 80 - 90 percent humidity. No Lycra or spandex please

The April 2012 issue of Harper's Magazine includes a letter to the editor by performer Mike Daisey, who was featured on a January 2012 episode of This American Life called "Mr. Daisey and the Apple Factory," based on his stage show "The Agony and the Ecstasy of Steve Jobs." On March 18, This American Life aired revelations that some of the details in Daisey's story were untrue. Among the facts contradicted by his Chinese translator was the claim that he had interviewed hundreds of Foxconn workers. She estimated the number at closer to fifty.
In "Killing the Competition" [Report, February], Barry C. Lynn expounds on the contraction of open markets in an age of corporate hegemony, comparing the plight of Apple employees in Silicon Valley with that of poultry farmers in the Allegheny Mountains. An even more apt comparison might be with workers at Foxconn and other factories throughout the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone in China, who manufacture the devices that run Apple software. When I interviewed hundreds of Foxconn workers in 2010, I found they were, like the Apple employees interviewed by Lynn, skittish and fearful of being blacklisted.
Unlike most workers in Silicon Valley, those with whom I spoke in Shenzhen seldom have means of changing their lot, but they suffer no delusions. Perhaps, then, they have something to teach those of us who choose not to see the true nature of the corporations we work for or endorse. Lynn's article reminds us of the naïveté underlying any assumption that regulation will occur naturally rather than through intervention.

Parenthood Review: A "New Plan" For An Uncertain Futureby Carissa Pavlica at . Comments
When Parenthood started last season, Sarah had just moved home after living away from her family for many years. She is so integral to the family now that I found myself wondering what life with the Bravermans was like before she returned.
She and her children have really shaken things up, and given the family a perspective that must have been missing while she was gone.
Perhaps it's because she is hard at work on her play that she can see things so keenly and almost from afar. Unless it is with regard to her own children, and her view is clouded with darkness. She brings to each of her family members a warmth and understanding I think they must have genuinely missed in her absence.
When she visited Julia at work and ribbed her about her broken arm (I'll have to ask Erika Christensen what she did to that arm on Twitter...), you could see the genuine pleasure her concern brought to her sister.
In one exchange Sarah learned of Julia's heartache and inability to conceive more children and that her own daughter didn't get accepted to Berkeley. It was quite the visit.I've mentioned before that the similarities between Sarah and Amber keep them from fully embracing the intricacies of their relationship, and watching them deal with this unexpected turn of events in Amber's life drove that home. Sarah really had no idea how to react to Amber's news, and yet I could imagine a young Sarah behaving in the very same way.
I enjoyed their moment discussing the prom. Any reference to Pretty In Pink while surrounded by a pile of old gowns has to bring a smile. Did anyone else notice that what Amber actually wore to the event looked nothing like what was on the bed earlier? That must have been one heck of a sewing job.
As Sarah struggled with Amber, she was also expected to strip and rewrite a portion of her play. After a rather heated exchange with Amber about her "New Plan" to take control of her life, it looked like she found the inspiration to bring the changes to fruition. I wonder how that personal event will resonate in the play, and how Amber will take it (assuming I am right in my assessment). If a reading is imminent, it won't take long for us to find out.
Adam was a bundle of nerves worrying that Haddie and Alex would have sex at the prom. After all the conjecture, Haddie returned home looking sullen, until she reached her room. A sly, intimate look came over her face. We will have to wait to find out if Adam's nightmare came true, but it sure seemed like something happened that Haddie wasn't yet willing to share.
Crosby made another rash decision in a seemingly long string of them this season. At the very least, this one can be viewed as an investment. Sarah's talk with Adam brought him back into the fold and although he may never forget that his brother messed up his beautiful, budding family and the loss Max suffered as a consequence, he was willing to forgive him. The siblings rallied around Crosby as they realized together they could work some magic on his little house to make it a home.
My favorite part of the episode was the pre-prom scene, when the various family members mingled and snapped photos and laughed. Adam worried, Sarah beamed at Amber's beauty, Alex and Haddie waved at Kristina from the couch. It was like a perfect family moment and so rare to see it portrayed with such simplicity.
Each week, I become more invested in the lives of the Braverman family. Share your thoughts about the episode and the Bravermans' familial interactions in the comments. I'd love to hear them!

This show has the finest writing I think I've ever seen on TV. Even though my own experiences both having parents and being one are not identical to the Bravermans' , every episode touches chords that feel almost unbelievably accurate. The way the characters talk over each other and events swirl around -- that truly is the way most groups of people act, rather than the staged and canned comedies and dramas that have inundated us for years and years. For instance, the way Haddie's and Amber's moms dealt with the beginning of prom night (the living room photos scene) was dead on. So many scenes feel to me as if the writers had reached into the deepest places of my own experiences and feelings and brought them out in a way that I could only begin to do. Another thing I love about this show: it's an excellent way for new parents to actually learn about realistic parenting -- parenting where inexperienced people try to do their best with deep love but often imperfect behaviors. And the cast -- I cannot imagine a different actor/actress for any one of these characters. Actually, it is hard to believe they are acting, it feels so real. For example, the scene where Julia's mom hugs her when Julia breaks down and cries about her infertility. Watch Bonnie's face: it is completely how a mom feels. I know. Another thing -- the show has given me a much better understanding of autism and how families cope with it. I also know that all good things come to an end, and I have seen other excellent TV shows be dropped while complete junk stays on the air for years. I hope that this show is NOT one that gets cancelled, and that it continues for many, many seasons.
p.s. I also watch The Good Wife, that show is also excellent. A good match; two fabulous shows, very different but both amazingly good. I watch them both, they are good counterparts of each other, I watch one after the other. I can recommend everyone to watch not only Parenthood but also The Good Wife. Wouldn't want to miss either one!!
It's definitely one of my favorite shows, too. It's absolutely fabulous! Love the characters, love the special bonds and the realistic stories. A special place in my heart is reserved for Joel, whom I really love and adore for Julia. She's blessed with him as her soul mate!
Great to have a show like this one to watch.
This is definitely one of my favorite shows right now. I loved this week's past episode – so many touching moments. I know the cast is huge, but it's kind of strange to me when some of the characters are missing. For example, where were Max and Drew? Sure, the spotlight was on each of them recently, but I thought they'd want to see their sisters off to prom.
Parenthood is the best show I've seen in many years. It explores the imperfections in families as well as showing the love & humor involved. The writing is excellent! The actors are excellent for their roles! Keep up the good work!! I agree that it should have a different time slot & not be up against The Good Wife. I know there are many people who would love this show if they had a chance to watch it. I watch it on 'On Demand' from my cable co.
Having a family with kids brings this show home. Now if you don't have kids, it can hit on different levels which is why the writing is great. I can see myself acting like Adam...easily! I can also see myself acting like Amber's Mom. To be honest...I'm still chuckling at the "Doctor's Office" scene from last week. Nothing like failed phone sex to bring it home... :-)
I wanted to choke Adam!
this show is one of the best on tv. each character is so beautifully developed. to bad they are up against Good Wife.
